WEBVTT - Maller Odyssey 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:05.280 Ka boom. If you thought more hours a day, minutes 0:00:05.320 --> 0:00:08.520 a week was enough, I think again. He's the last 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:12.240 remnants of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. 0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:15.320 He treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as 0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:19.400 the rich pill poppers in the penthouse to clearing house 0:00:19.440 --> 0:00:23.160 of hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth 0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:29.320 Hour with Ben Maller starts right now. The jibber jabber begins. 0:00:29.360 --> 0:00:33.080 Another weekend is upon us. Remember the official start of 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.800 the weekend, the roller coaster ride that is the Fifth 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:40.760 Hour with Ben Maller. As we are back at it 0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:44.800 yet again, here on a Friday, a college basketball weekend, 0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:48.960 and I know that the podcast numbers are not going 0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:52.080 to go down because of the n c A A tournament. 0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:58.080 Because this podcast is a great companion, right, great companion 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:00.600 to the n c A tournaments. Were not running a 0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:06.160 battle with that as a competitor. We are side by side, 0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:09.640 side by side, and that we are joined. I looked 0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:11.960 at the schedule. I thought this must be a mistake. Yeah, 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:14.160 I mean this he's due to not show up. But 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:21.040 there he is, right there, David gascon Like setting in here. 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:29.480 The rest of the four five hand, proud noise. I 0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:32.520 feel really good about about myself in the n C 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:36.279 Double A tournament. Here nine o'clock Pacific in the morning 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:38.920 time and then of course twelve o'clock Eastern for all 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.920 those and I could say this comfortably now, Ben Mallory, 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:45.640 it's not Pacific Standard time. It was just Pacific time 0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:49.600 as we have leaked forward, thank god to uh the 0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:53.040 daylight savings. Now we will address that in future podcast 0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.720 because the whole time changed thing. They can get take 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:02.200 that whole ball of wax and chuck it, especially for 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:07.960 a nightcrawler like you are. True, I don't I don't 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.280 get to it now. But because this is not about that, 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:12.200 you know, this is an interview podcast. We've had very 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:15.320 powerful people. We've had CEOs, We've had legendary Hall of 0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:19.840 Fame broadcasters on we we have had big name athletes, 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:24.280 super Bowl heroes like Plexico Burris. Uh. These are these 0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:28.959 are very important people, heroic people in the sporting world, 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:36.520 peerless people, aristocrats. That's a lot. But the difference between 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:40.320 me and you, guesscan is I am a man of 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:43.400 the people. Okay, I am a man of the people. 0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:46.520 I'm trying to teach you I'm trying to teach you 0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:50.480 the difference here and that I don't have a problem 0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:54.360 talking to the powerful, but I also like to talk 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:59.760 to me the regular, not regular, but the the listener. 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:04.119 Contributor is just as important. The one that gets their 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:07.680 hands dirty adding to the show, uh, is just as 0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:10.680 important as a guy running a baseball team, or a 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:13.440 big broadcaster or any of those people. I'm gonna I'm 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:15.919 gonna pass that message a line of Leo terrell as 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:17.920 uh as we've had him on as a guest. I 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:20.200 love Leo. Leo's great, Leo's a radio guy. I love 0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:23.200 talking to radio guys, but I also like talking to 0:03:24.000 --> 0:03:25.680 people that are behind the scenes. We're gonna talk to 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:27.400 one of them in a few minutes, but before we 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:31.320 get to that, all right, that's a tease, by the way, guests, guy, right, 0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:34.240 that's a tease. All right. I know you're gonna rise 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.400 from the ashes of your career here, and you're gonna 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:40.760 you're gonna be okay. Alright, anyway, so we were blessed 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:42.800 on the Ben Mallory Show. It's an overnight show. Guest 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:44.320 gon you might have heard about it. You don't listen 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:47.560 because you go to bed earlier. Yes, but we were 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:52.440 blessed with a tremendous tune. Um and you know, I 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:56.600 got my starting radio as a DJ. And there's a 0:03:56.600 --> 0:04:00.680 lot of phrases and slogans about music, you know, turning 0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:06.520 music into memories and things like that. And uh, we 0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:08.839 have a love hate relationship with music on the show 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:12.480 because I've always goofed on bumper music a Lee Klein 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:16.280 who we've had on the show on this podcast multiple times, 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:18.880 my radio buddy Lee Kleine from back in the day. 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:23.559 And Lee would obsess over his bumper music, right sending 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:27.760 out good vibrations uh and uh and and people would 0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:30.120 call up and they wouldn't talk about sports. They'd ask, 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:32.680 you know, what was that song you played coming into 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:36.440 the into the talk set and it It was always 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:40.440 ridiculous to me because it's spoken word radio. Why why 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:43.480 would you obsess with the music which you only play 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:46.680 forty five seconds of the music. But he would do it, 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:48.640 and people would call up and they wanted to talk 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:52.799 about the music, you know, and all that. Well, we 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:55.479 we have Roberto's the music. I don't I don't have 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:59.000 any say over the music, any control over it on 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:02.400 our show, but we have listeners that are very talented 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:06.160 musicians that bring harmony to the world of the Mallard Militia. 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:10.000 And one of those is a gentleman named Jay Scoop 0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:14.800 from Seattle along with Just Josh. These two guys, Just 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:19.400 Josh is in Cincinnati, Jay Scoop is in Seattle, and 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:25.520 these guys hooked up because of our show and collaborated 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:30.680 together and have created a couple of songs over the years, 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:35.280 and they just released one this week. If you listen 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:39.880 to the Overnight Show the other night, you heard this melody. 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:43.600 We're about to play it right here, and it's it's 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:48.320 called Mallard Odyssey. If you miss that podcast that was 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:52.880 the Thursday podcast we played this, we debuted. I played 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:57.720 Casey Kayson and uh boy, I love playing Casey Kayson 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:00.960 on the on the Casey's a legend and it's just 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:04.280 it's just wonderful too. So I keep your feet on 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:08.359 the ground and keep reaching for the stars. What all? 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.880 What a great catchphrase? Anyway, this is the tune now, 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:17.000 it's actually just Josh is singing. Jay Scoop is doing 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:22.200 backup vocals on this and let's let the music tell 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:25.200 the stories. Music to your ears is what it is here. 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:40.600 It is Fox Control to Ben Malla. Everyone loves the 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:44.960 donkey and I like being the donker Fox Control. Then 0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:51.479 I love losers. I'm a fan of losers. Check you out, 0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:59.360 then send down good headphones on Fox Control to Ben 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:05.440 ma h, he's got the cleanest ask at Jack a 0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:09.000 radio box turned on. You pay me five on a 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:13.520 thousand dollars, will endorse the game magazine look Fu Grandinns 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:17.640 and Rutburn tells cooking too. You want to poop me 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:34.120 biek kicking say this is Fox Control to me? Your 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:41.400 Monala made the great and I Alicia wants to hear 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:47.920 what you had to say, and it's time to leave 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:58.960 the melons. Care. This is Penno to bus Control. I'm 0:07:59.160 --> 0:08:07.600 lifting from my chair and I'm flouting in the airy 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:21.000 where Eddy got see in the very Different Today? Does 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:34.199 it sounds like I'm talking in the tan? Care? Continue 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:51.160 and there's nothing I can do. Job bye. Just Josh 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:55.240 who was the lead singer in this, and Jay Scoop 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:59.800 doing the backup vocals, and we're actually gonna chat with 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:05.640 j Scoop here momentarily he is standing by, standing by, 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:09.280 as they say in Big Time Radio and podcast programs. 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.440 But before we get to J Scoop, Uh, you have 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.400 not heard that song before Gascon? You don't listen to 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:19.600 the overnight show. Uh. Your initial thoughts on this piece 0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:24.800 of music magic here just outstanding? Well, a couple of things. 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:27.360 I will say it's a job well done. First of all, 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:32.040 I think that's a plus production. I thought the acoustics 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:35.520 were good, thought the vocals were fantastic. And I think 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:39.280 when you combine all that together, the timeline on the 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.600 track is only two minutes of nineteen seconds, And I 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:44.640 think that's important because as good as it is, it 0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:47.959 probably would have gotten progressively worse had it been three 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:51.840 or four or five minutes. So short and sweet and 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.120 to the point I thought was what was the home 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:57.240 run hack on that? And I thought the guys did 0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:59.520 a good job. Well. I've stressed that, you know when 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:02.760 when when guys do song parodies on the show, I've said, 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.719 less is more. I learned that from my Heart University 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:07.840 many years ago. But less is more and when in 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.400 doubt leave it out. Guests learned that as well. I mean, 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:13.000 you think about TV shows. TV shows that are are 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:16.480 non comedy related are typically sixty minutes long, but all 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:19.640 comedy shows are only thirty minutes in length because you 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:21.800 need to get to the punchline, get to the jokes, 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:24.360 get to the funny, and be quick and be memorable 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.880 and then get the hell out. Yeah. I mean it's 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:29.000 a phrase that we've all learned, like, you know, make 0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:33.080 them want more, leave them wanting more, and if you 0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:35.680 can keep it shorter, and it makes it easier for 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:37.640 you too, And so Jay Scoop did a great job 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:41.320 on that and and You're welcome. You're welcome, Gascon. You know, 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:44.560 not to blow my own horn here, but there's no 0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:47.680 other way you would be mentioned in a professional sounding song. 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.640 You were part of the lyrics there. West of the 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:54.240 four oh five made it into a song and your 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:58.400 name was the one of the final lyrics of this 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:03.079 particular tune. Was you. I like to You're welcome as 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:05.200 a closer, not a starter, but as a closer. And 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:07.880 I think you would agree with me that there's no 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:14.200 one else on this network upper management that has your 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:17.160 back like West in the four O file. You got 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:20.400 my back last time you show up, you have my back. 0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:25.840 It's a ringing endorsement from from Gaston Gascan. I always 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:32.040 called you the name of the district attorney. Uh, we're 0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.040 gonna met you guys on the recall, So I understand. 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:37.480 I get it. It's the age of the recall and 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:42.560 they all have the same it's all blaming the same 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.719 people for the recall, no personal accountability, which is why 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:49.040 they're being recalled. But it's the beauty of mine. Anyway. 0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:51.920 List enough about that. Let's go now and welcome in 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:56.079 a man, a myth, a legend. Be sure to catch 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.560 live editions of The Ben Maller Show week days at 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:02.760 two am Eastern eleven Empacific on Fox Sports Radio and 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:05.280 the I Heart Radio app. Be sure to catch live 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:07.959 editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am 0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:12.720 Eastern eleven pm Pacific. J Scoop, that's right, the man 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:17.560 of the hour right here from Seattle, a decorated member 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.440 of the Mallard Militia who helped put that song together 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:25.679 in collaboration with Just Josh, who was the lead singer, 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:30.800 and Jay Scoop. You are the answer to a tribute question. 0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:34.080 I believe you are the first listener that we have 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.640 had on the podcast because Gascon does not want to 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:41.040 put anyone that's a fan of the show on the air. 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:46.000 So congratulations, you have defied the odds here, J Scoop, Yes, 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:50.160 I broke that glass ceiling. Finally it's been done. And 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:54.079 I consider in an honor. Yeah, well, I considered an 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:57.880 honor that you spent a good amount of time working 0:12:57.920 --> 0:12:59.880 on this song. And I know you have a passion 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.680 a few music, Jay Scoop, I've heard that about you, 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:04.920 and I've i've met you. We'll get to that later. 0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:10.040 But how long did this particular song, Mallard Odyssey take 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:14.600 to put together from start to finish? Oh my gosh. 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:18.560 I mean, you know, it can be tough because you know, 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:22.480 just like a lot of artists, painters and whatnot, you'll 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.400 sit there and you'll have you'll have a product in 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:27.439 front of you you're trying to do, but you'll you'll 0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:30.120 keep nitpicking. You'll want it to be better and better. 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:33.120 So you know, you could you could have had a 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:37.120 crap song. They're probably a couple of months ago, but 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.000 of course we're gonna keep going to the well and 0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:41.640 trying to make it better and better. So I believe 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:45.760 Jeff Josh said it properly that when we first considered 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:48.280 this song, it was actually a couple of months ago, 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:52.200 so um, probably around about two two and a half 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:56.240 months just for that two minutes and whatever twenty seconds 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:59.480 that you got on the radio. Yeah, and we well 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.080 we were saying in j school, but you did a 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:04.200 great job. Is less is more? You know that you 0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.599 don't you don't want to go too long that you know, 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:10.600 especially in our format, you know, the shorter the better, 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:13.599 Right around two minutes is like, that's the goldilocks on 0:14:14.080 --> 0:14:15.800 that's if you can get you a minute thirty to 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:19.080 two minutes a little over that to thirty, that's perfect. 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:23.480 And you did it. So whose idea was it? I mean, 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:27.240 you guys have worked together on stuff in the past. 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:29.720 Here that was it? Just Josh the callege up said hey, 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:31.680 I got an idea. Were you like, hey I got 0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:35.960 something here or were you guys just searching for something? Yeah. 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:39.920 So our current trend has kind of been that we go, 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.360 we we alternate. So I think I had done the 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:46.800 last one. I'm spacing out which one was the one prior? 0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:50.160 But this time it was Josh, so he was the 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:54.800 one that chose this. Actually asked them before before you 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.520 guys contact me. I'm like, well, what why, why did 0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:00.800 you choose this one, and and he said, well, to 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:04.520 be honest, uh, I was high as a kite listening 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:08.040 to David Bowie and and then I said, it's changed 0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:11.080 the line to Fox Control the Ben Miller and that's 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.800 how it originated. And so he took it and ran 0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:16.960 from from there with it. But yeah, it kind of 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:20.400 just go. We go back and forth. He'll he'll pick 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:25.360 a song. I'll be like, okay, I either love that song. Honestly, 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:28.120 when I first heard his submission on this one, I 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:30.720 was like, I don't know. It's a little bit older, though, 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:33.920 is that One'm gonna be okay? It's like no, you know, 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.880 there's definitely enough demographic that are going to know the song. 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:39.800 And trust me, with the idea that I have on this, 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:43.239 it's probably going to transcend for the the younger listeners 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:46.520 as well. And that's what it seemed to do. Yeah, well, 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.880 I know absolutely mean any you know song and this 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:54.680 is a classic, right you can? You can? It's generational, 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.360 it's timeless, you know, and not that that song is 0:15:57.400 --> 0:16:01.800 particularly timeless, but but yeah, I agree with you know. 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.680 Obviously it worked. People loved it. You guys, uh, I 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:07.000 hope you you got all those nice things that people 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:08.640 were saying about you, j Scoop, but I got an 0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:11.720 email from people that was great, you know, not just 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.920 the people on social media, but people that aren't on 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:16.920 social media that that loved it as well. So you 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:22.960 guys absolutely nailed it. Absolutely. Now you've been the sing 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:24.960 you've been the lead guy. You were not the lead 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.960 guy this time, Jay Scoop, just Josh sliding over. I 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:32.280 know you have a music background, does just Josh to me? 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:34.920 I don't think he does. I don't know him that well, 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:37.480 but I don't think he's got a great musical background 0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:41.360 like you had, right, No, he doesn't. And and it 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:44.400 kind of happened by accident, because what typically happens is 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:47.640 he you know, again we you know, we're picking the song, 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:50.600 but it's pretty much a foregone conclusion that I'm going 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:54.440 to sing and do whatever. Well, when we were first 0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:57.520 pitching this song and he's bringing it up and he's 0:16:57.760 --> 0:17:00.320 telling me the lyrics and whatnot, and then some along 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:02.840 the line, he did he just did like a short 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:04.640 clip and sent it to me just so I could 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:07.480 kind of understand what direction he was he was going 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:10.480 with it. And I listened to it and I'm like, man, 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.520 this sounds really good. And and you know, I went 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:17.040 back and I listened to David Bowie because I'm a 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:20.879 stickler for you try to whether it's parody or not, 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.880 you're trying to sound and and do as much justice 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:26.919 for the original artists as you can't. So I'm listening 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:32.639 to David Bowie and his voice, and I'm like, it 0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:35.439 just Josh has this twang in his voice that just 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:37.480 has something with I don't know if it's like that 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:39.679 British thing or what, but I was like, I know, 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:41.520 for me, it's probably gonna take a little while to 0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:44.840 get it down to sound just like that, whereas it 0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:46.680 was just coming off natural. I don't know if he's 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:48.880 been singing this song his whole life as a fan 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:51.920 or what, but it was perfect. So I I told him, 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.239 I'm like, dude, I think you're the one to do 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:57.800 this song and I think I made it. But cheeks 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:00.560 clench up a little bit because he didn't have any 0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:04.480 experience with that. But yeah, yeah, well that's great. And 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:07.480 so because of the Internet, obviously, you guys can you're 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:10.840 in totally different cities and you're far across the country 0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:14.119 from each other, and you know you just did you 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:19.320 record together or did you did did you do your part? 0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:20.920 I mean, you get you had to do this together. 0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:22.679 I would assume right the timing and all that, but 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:25.600 did Josh, how did it work? Is what I'm trying 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:27.480 to say. Did you do it? Uh? You know, on 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:32.160 the weekends or when did this take place? We're pretty 0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:35.520 much going. Once we got rolling, we were going every day. 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:39.560 But the problem is if you know, be done recording. Um, 0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:41.920 it's the best if the person is right there because 0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:44.000 when they do it, take and be like, hey, you 0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:46.800 know that part was messed up there, this was sharp, 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:50.760 this was flat? Hey that cut out? And and we 0:18:50.800 --> 0:18:53.120 didn't have that because he's all the way in Cincinnati 0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:55.879 and I'm out here in Seattle. So what I would 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:59.280 do is have him do some takes. But the problem 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:01.480 in the beginning was he had some kind of I 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:04.800 don't know, radio shock headset Mike, and the thing was 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:07.399 cutting out the end of lines. And I'm like, I 0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:10.040 can only do so much magic on my on my 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:14.280 MacBook Pro. You know, like I'm not. I'm not some 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:18.800 high level studio and have all all this crazy equipment, 0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:21.040 So I'm like, I need a solid take from you, Matt. 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:26.000 So eventually he finally picked up a decent mike on 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:28.320 the store on the way home how him do a 0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:32.280 bunch of takes and then I basically just had to 0:19:32.320 --> 0:19:36.879 go deep into the logic pro software and try to 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:42.480 make it sounds good when you added the drops, which 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:45.560 made me sound like a goofball. But they were very 0:19:45.600 --> 0:19:48.880 they were nice, they were clean, they were smooth. How 0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:51.280 the heck did you get those? Did did somebody on 0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:53.240 the inside give you those? Or did you just take 0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:56.520 those off the podcast? Come on, man, it's all about 0:19:56.560 --> 0:20:00.000 the podcast. When you when you know, you know exact 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:04.280 actually where Roberto is gonna drop those nuggets on the show, 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:07.120 and go in there and and pluck them out. Sometimes 0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:08.879 it can be hard because you guys aren't given the 0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:10.920 right ones, and then you just got to go back 0:20:10.960 --> 0:20:13.480 into the archive a little bit. But I had a 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:16.920 little little experience before when I did a little thing 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:19.159 called the Drop Chronicles. I just grabbed a bunch of 0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:22.040 the drops that were my favorite favorites and then I 0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:24.919 put them over over a tune and just kind of 0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:28.639 made fun fun with it. But uh, I want you 0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:30.560 to know Jay scoop that and you you Listen, you've 0:20:30.560 --> 0:20:34.240 been a listener. You know this because these are damaging 0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:37.280 quotations that are used as drops, and they are out 0:20:37.280 --> 0:20:41.119 of context. Like sometimes we get new listeners to the 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:43.439 show and they hear you know, they're new. We go 0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:45.920 on new radio stations and people are sampling the show 0:20:45.960 --> 0:20:48.199 and they hear this, and it's they're like, oh, this 0:20:48.320 --> 0:20:50.879 is ridiculous. I can't believe you would say that they 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:54.320 have no idea J Scoop that you know, I'm talking 0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:59.120 about something totally different, which in context makes sense, and 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:01.760 then out of on text makes me sound like, you know, 0:21:01.840 --> 0:21:04.879 chuckles the clown, how dare them? Jay School? But I 0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:07.600 love the drops in the song it was and Roberto 0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:10.639 to me, that's the funniest one poopy pie that's out me. 0:21:12.200 --> 0:21:14.360 Especially the way it went with the music right there. 0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:16.239 It just made it sound like, oh yeah, like it 0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:18.800 was shocking. But you're right. But to be fair, you 0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:21.080 do that to the other guys too, and that's why 0:21:21.119 --> 0:21:24.880 we have content for them as well. Well that's not true. Listen, 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:27.760 Eddie as says so many dumb things, and that they 0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:31.480 these guys don't cut those drops up. They don't, uh. 0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:35.480 I mean, we've there's only a few Eddie outtakes. There 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:39.720 are so many more Eddie outcome it's so big I 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:43.160 can hardly get my mouth around it. And well, yeah, 0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:46.479 but you know, most of them are like my favorite 0:21:46.680 --> 0:21:49.080 drop as the Canadians beat the Canadians, which is great. 0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:51.280 It's like a parody on Saturday Night Live back in 0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:55.119 the day, which is uhh. And the fab the Fab 0:21:55.200 --> 0:21:57.840 five when he couldn't pronounce the Fab five that was 0:21:58.359 --> 0:22:02.920 that was also out standing. In Indeed, so I've been 0:22:02.920 --> 0:22:05.880 told by people Ja School that we need to cancel 0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:12.120 the Talent Show, that this is so good that your 0:22:12.280 --> 0:22:16.919 work along with your guy there just josh, this dynamic duel, 0:22:17.320 --> 0:22:19.560 that we don't even need to have a talent show. 0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:22.520 That you've already won the Talent Show, you've won in 0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:26.640 the past multiple times, and then this is over. Should 0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:30.119 we have the Talent show? J School, Well, you know, 0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:36.760 I'm all for for the next generation and encouraging creativity. 0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:39.200 So I would never say to stop the Talent Show. 0:22:39.560 --> 0:22:42.280 But if you want to do some something, I don't know. 0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:44.520 I can't think of what would be the alternate solution. 0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:47.280 I do kind of consider myself kind of like the 0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:50.959 Green Bay packers though of the Talent Show World and 0:22:51.000 --> 0:22:53.880 that I won the first two, But then that makes 0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:56.800 me worry because they didn't win another one until like 0:22:56.960 --> 0:22:59.639 how many years later, So I'm hoping that's not not 0:22:59.760 --> 0:23:02.880 the Friends. But I definitely think the townships got to continue. 0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:05.320 I mean, we got all the guy you got people 0:23:05.440 --> 0:23:11.800 burping songs and and of course, hey Mona, I mean, 0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:14.760 you're you're gonna lose that magic if you stop the 0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:17.600 Talent Show, so you gotta continue. All right, Well, we 0:23:18.119 --> 0:23:20.600 will have to have different layers to the Talent Show. 0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:23.639 We'll have to have multiple winners. Um, you know, everyone 0:23:23.640 --> 0:23:25.679 will get a participation price. But no, I mean we'll 0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:27.680 have a few winners. We're not gonna have everyone's gonna win, 0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:30.680 and we will, oh yeah, we'll have it. Sometimes. Usually 0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:34.399 it's in June, right around um they used to call 0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:36.680 the dead zone. There's really no dead zone, but after 0:23:36.720 --> 0:23:40.880 the NBA Finals, before football gets going, before training camp 0:23:40.960 --> 0:23:44.359 gets going in football, that's typically around the time that 0:23:44.440 --> 0:23:48.680 we do it. There you go. You gotta name that thing, though, 0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:51.960 just like the Genie and Medford Color of the Year, 0:23:52.280 --> 0:23:54.880 and you gotta you gotta name some of those ones 0:23:54.960 --> 0:23:57.560 that people will feel like a tie to you know, 0:23:57.720 --> 0:24:01.720 something like you gotta brand it right. It's all about 0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:08.119 Brandy And sorry David, but you know we we we 0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:11.159 had to we had to go after whatever target was 0:24:11.200 --> 0:24:14.840 in view, and and and you popped up, you silhouetted yourself. 0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.520 So yeah, so I thought it was great. And it 0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:19.640 was great and it's the only way guests got will 0:24:19.640 --> 0:24:24.680
