It was a bicentennial Country was all patriotic flags everywhere, the music wasn't bad and the movies were pretty good. So sit back, relax, break out your American flag. You should already have one, it's the same.

Lou:Enjoy the show.
Scott:Thank you, amanda, for that wonderful introduction, as you do, Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends. You know the name of it, I'm not going to say it. I'm streaming live right now over Facebook, youtube, twitch, twitter, d-live X. Twitter is XX, I guess I could say. Both sounds like more, and they had a couple other. You know, let's get the. Let's get the chat bar open here for the live streamers, podcasters. You don't have to worry about that. Yeah, Welcome to the podcast. We got a good show, good one tonight. 1976. Very, very busy year, very busy year for the country. It was a busy year in music. It was a busy year in movies. This is going to be a busy podcast, very busy, busy, busy into. Uh, let's see, uh, let's, let's, let's just bring them on. You know, I think Lou in 1976, lou was 32 and Mark was one.
Mark:Something like that. I don't know, it's seven.
Scott:Yeah, luke, like you know, and Mark Smith from the music relish show. What's up, gentlemen? Yeah, I see I get a move.
Lou:See, I was 31. I have to read.
Scott:I'm not even 36. You're 31.
Lou:I'm sorry, yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah, I was in graduate school. Oh yeah, 31 in grad school Still hanging in there.
Scott:Buddy, I got that philosophy degrees.
Lou:Finally, I finally got that philosophy degree.
Mark:Yeah, yeah, now he, he. He invented LinkedIn for his own uses.
Scott:It's for his own use. Yeah, he just doesn't want to uh, admit that he was. Uh, he was one of the inventors.
Lou:I've updated my profile.
Scott:Oh, right off the bat.
Lou:It was dying to do this.
Scott:That did not take long. That did not take long. Todd Salkman just messaged him. I am here, entertain me.
Mark:Entertain you yeah.
Scott:Yeah, fuck you. How's that? How's that Entertain you. Who are you? Todd Salkman, big head, todd Salkman who likes.
Scott:Todd. Todd the wet sprocket, that's what we'll start calling him. Todd the wet sprocket yes, not big head Todd, not told the way. Todd the wet sprocket, yes, he's a big, muscular, redheaded man. Hmm, hey, patty, welcome to the show. Welcome to the show. Well, we were off last week. I had flown up to Boston and, uh, I flew in Tuesday, last Tuesday, and by Tuesday night I was at the I don't know what they call it now, but it's the Wang center in Boston Seeing Nick Cave with Colin Greenwood on bass from Radiohead. It was amazing and it was just the three of them, the two of them and the piano and the bass. That's it. Strip down, scale down. Uh, marie Martin, welcome, welcome to the show again.
Scott:And Nick Cave had the uh luxury of being able to uh explain some of the songs and talk about some of the songs, so you get that little intimacy with the artist. And he would, he would banter back and forth with the audience. It wasn't a rowdy crowd. Someone would yell out, like someone yelled out, uh, because he, he's, he had an album called murder ballads, right, murder ballads. And so he yells out murder ballads, playing murder ballads. And this is like three quarters of the way to the show and he said I think they've all been murder ballads. So it was. Uh, nick Cave is definitely a different cup of tea If you want to listen to him.
Scott:So the Sunday before that I saw Morrissey at the hard rock live at the seminal hard rock casino hotel and casino, the giant guitar hotel. It's the only one of its kind in the world down here in Hollywood, florida. And so, uh, morrissey put on a great show that might be the best show that I've seen so far. Wow, he had a great set list. I've seen him three times. Fortunately he hasn't canceled on me yet. Uh, set list was great. It was 40 years of Morrissey, so he did a bunch of Smith songs more than usual Some I've never heard him play.
Scott:So again, between those two, they are two of the the the finest lyricists you will ever ever hear. Now, if you're into that, if you're into lyrics and uh intelligence, and they're two totally different uh styles, but they're, their lyrics are just deep and they're, they're clever and the way they word them, they're, they're true lyricists, true, true lyricists. Um, so I uh, nick Cave was a was a bucket list show. I was supposed to see him with the bad seeds. Uh, that's his backup band. Um, before COVID hit, I was supposed to see him in Boston so I didn't get to see them. But I'm glad I got to see this concert because you know, when an artist goes out just solo on their own and it's a scale down, that's not too common. He'll go out on tour again with with the bad seeds and that's a ruckus show. Like that's a total ruckus show.
Scott:Um, if you want to see a great, a great uh uh video that that shows you the intensity of Nick Cave in concert, uh, go go to YouTube and put in stagger Lee S T A G G E R L E E. And I believe he had, uh, it was uh, in Austin, texas, I think the performance was, but it's intense. Stagger Lee, uh, he tells these stories, man. He, if you've watched peeky blinders, yeah, three quarters of America has and three half of the world has probably. Uh, he's the one that sings the theme song red right hand. So that should give you an idea of the type of music Cause so I've seen that video.
Scott:Yeah, Right, yeah, it's pretty bizarre, right, yeah yeah, and I think that's the guy with the red right hand that lays in the bed with the, with the people in that you know they die, and they never explained who that is. But, um, I was talking to somebody before I went and I said, well, I'm going to see a concert and people I was like so who are you going to see, Right, Isn't that the? That's always who you're going to see. I said, well, you probably never heard of him. And she's. Well, who? Who is? I said Nick Cave. He's usually with his, his backup band, the bad seeds, but it's just Nick Cave. They always just kind of look at me and I said, yeah, I didn't know, Although he's been around since the eighties.
Lou:Yeah.
Scott:His first band. He's Australian. The first band he played in was called birthday party and they had, you know, moderate hits in Australia and probably over in England and stuff, but a little bit here, uh. But he's been around for a while and, uh, he's just one of those dudes man Like you'd love to just have a conversation with them. Yeah, yeah, like you'd, I would love to sit down. And who do you want to have coffee with right? Or who do you want to have tea with? It would be. You know, of course I Morrissey, I'd love, that would probably be. But Nick Cave is is like, if Morrissey is one, nick Cave is is one A, if you want to have a conversation, or one B. You know what I mean.
Mark:Yeah.
Scott:Uh, because it's just the brilliance. Another person would be a Iggy Pop. I would love to sit down and just talk to Iggy Pop. Yeah, I don't want to talk to Steven Tyler. I don't want to talk to Mick Jagger. It'd be great, but you, you know so. So, all right, this isn't. This is right off the cuff, mark. Uh, who would? Who would you like to sit down and have have a drink with? I don't drink. That's why I said coffee. I don't drink teas. Uh, who, who would you just off the top yet? Who would you want to sit down and talk to? That's uh.
Mark:The quiet guy and you two, the edge. Everyone thinks I would say Bono. Now I want to sit with the edge. Bono, I heard him talk. The edge is very eloquent. But I'll tell you something. Iggy Pop I heard him on a Mark Maron show. He is a very nothing like. He sings. He's very intelligent, yeah, elegant, great interview.
Scott:Intellect, he's an intellect.
Mark:Yeah, you wouldn't think that. I always thought he was a moron.
Scott:Well, if you see the early videos of him, like being interviewed by Dick Cavett, by Dick Cavett, or like Mark Talbot says, johnny fucking Ma, that's a good conversation too. Yeah, that's a good fucking conversation. Right there you see Iggy Pop and he's playing Iggy Pop, but you know, by the way he's doing it, he's smarter than that, yeah, and I didn't mean to say moron like a we sort of, it was stupid, but you know what I mean.
Mark:He's up on stage cutting his chest and everything, and he expected him to be a wild man, you know, and he's, he's uh, yeah, totally different.
Scott:Yeah, what about you, luke? Who would you want to have a conversation with?
Lou:I know most of her dead.
Scott:That's fine, that's okay.
Lou:But someone who was alive, it would be a weird conversation. It would be Garth Hudson of the band. He's the last surviving member of the band and he's an eccentric dude. If you see his rock and roll whole fame induction speech that he gave it, it's hysterical. It's almost up there with Alex license blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah acceptance.
Lou:If you can find it, send it to me I will he read off of names no one's ever heard of and like he's the guy he was. He was the oldest guy in the band but very eccentric like a mad professor. Paul Davis spoke on the last waltz. He's very awkward, but his acceptance speech is this rambling list of all these names. It's bizarre. So people who didn't know the band would be like who the fuck? I think he's a musical, he's a historian, he is. You know so much music I would just like to sit and listen to him talk about it, you know yeah, like so.
Scott:Before Morrissey show there's always a video collage right and they started off with the helicopter scene from apocalypse. Now, and it's some obscure British punk band playing to that video it wasn't. And he just goes into Judy Garland, he goes into these British old time singers. I mean, he is. He's just a very eclectic person when it comes to music. You wouldn't think you think you'd be listening. Oh, I like this. It's probably bands like like that guy that you've never heard of.
Lou:Oh yeah, just you know it could seem strange to some people, or just totally has a mad respect for the obscurity of music. All right.
Scott:You know and you find those things. Like you guys find some things, I might find things that you guys don't know, right, or listen to. Yeah, um, mark, I well, I listened to as much as I could while I was driving that interview with the guy from porcupine tree.
Mark:Steve Wilson.
Scott:What, what, what an introspective conversation that was when he started talking about social media and how it changed and how he uses it and how he didn't. He didn't understand it. Yeah, it was real, it was an interesting interview.
Mark:He's exactly my age we're both the same age and he grew up like I did, very young, got handed records by older siblings. So he was like you and I right, we're listening to some stuff way ahead of our time, right, yeah and uh. So he kind of came up, like me, we were the last of the vinyl generation, like we were after us. There was no more vinyl, yeah, and CDs he embraced. He loves CDs, I love CDs, uh. But you know his fans get mad because he said he talks too much about the business side. I said he's got to live.
Scott:That's what he said too, yeah, he said you have to know the business, you have to understand the social media, you have to understand the direction that it's going in. You have to understand that albums don't take, you know, uh, two years to put out what some do, but you got artists dumping music like one single here, and that's how they put this stuff out. That's the way to do it, though I think.
Lou:Yeah, well, it's the new way to do it. Well, yeah, turn them out as you do it. I mean, singles drove the industry way back in the early 60s and 50s. It was all singles, really yeah.
Mark:Yeah.
Lou:So the album became a format but pump them out.
Mark:I'm throwing my pick for a talk, not the edge. It's uh, steve Wilson.
Lou:I should have thought of that right on top, Mark. Mark, who do you think I was going to say because?
Mark:Leon.
Lou:Oh, leave on home yeah.
Mark:Leave on. Sorry, leave on.
Lou:Um, get my Ouija board out yeah.
Mark:They don't have to be alive. They don't have to be alive.
Scott:I talk to them all the time. Well, let's see what was going on Tonight. We're talking about the year 1976. Really really interesting. Yeah, I kind of breezed through some of these things. Uh, unlike 1986 on the last podcast we did, where it picked up on like January 28th, like really nothing happened in 86. It was kind of funny. Uh, right off the bat, january 5th 1976, former Beatles road manager Mal Evans is shot dead by Los Angeles police after refusing to drop what police only determined uh, uh, uh later determined was an air rifle.
Lou:Still still, yeah, you know if you see something on get back, uh, the Peter Jackson documentary. He's seen playing instruments. He plays some piano, he plays the anvil on Maxwell Silverhammer.
Scott:Oh, okay.
Lou:Yeah, so he Mal was the go to guy. He was a big dude, he was like he was a roadie bodyguard. But when he died, here's what an asshole Lenin could take. His ashes got lost Right. So let it. Let it. Said he goes. They probably ended up in the dead letter office.
Mark:Oh funny, but funny. That's biting humor from Lenin.
Scott:Uh, the next day, january 6th 1976, peter Frampton, do I have to say anymore?
Lou:Right.
Scott:Right, Anybody that's listening, that's a baby boom. I'm going to say January 5th 1976, Peter Frampton, and you know what's coming next after that fucking monster, monster album he got it out right at the beginning of the year too, he never could reach that again. It was so big.
Mark:It's almost like a career end. Yeah, yeah.
Lou:He had a mild career after that album, but he was tragic, though. I mean the Sergeant Pepper movie was a debacle. Oh, it's Tara. Have you ever seen it? Or any of?
Scott:it. Who didn't back then right? Yeah, I mean I did see it and you're like fuck.
Mark:Garbage who who at the record label. You know when you think about it. Right after New Year's is the worst time to put out an album, so obviously they didn't have faith in that album. You think they would have put it out before Christmas. Right, that's a down time here, but it's still sold a lot.
Scott:Yeah, yeah. Well, like George Michael, you say you got to have faith. Yep, that's right. See, slip that one in. Yeah, have you watched that documentary?
Mark:No, I got to watch it. You fucking have to watch that it's on Netflix.
Lou:I was wondering what we're streaming, so I'm going to watch it.
Scott:You have to watch it, we'll talk before next week because I want to get your take on it, because I think you guys will again. I think anybody that watches it will. It's it's not what you expect. That's all I'm going to say, and I can't say that enough. I'm not a, I'm not going to give away anything. But on the next day, january 7th, like I said, 76 is busy. Kenneth Kenneth Moss, a former record company executive, is sentenced to 120 days in Los Angeles County jail and four years probation for involuntary manslaughter in the 1974 drug induced death of average white band drummer Robbie McIntosh.
Lou:Wow, oh yeah, We've talked about that before.
Scott:That's kind of like the uh the keyboardist from uh smash and pumpkins with uh the guitarist and the B 52s right the original guitar.
Lou:He owed deed right, richie wills.
Scott:Yeah, no, he died of, uh, he died of AIDS. He died of AIDS, that's right.
Lou:Who was the? Who was it that the the drummer Keith's Keith Strickland.
Mark:Keith.
Lou:Strickland.
Scott:B 52s.
Lou:He was a drummer, he took over the guitar. Yeah, yeah.
Scott:Yeah, but the the, the keyboardist from uh, smash and pump, he was there, he was just like, uh, he was uh, you know, I think he was Wendy Melvin's brother from Wendy and Lisa from the revolution, right, uh, yeah, Harold Melvin in the blue notes, yeah, he was with somebody, uh, somebody somewhat famous, that owed deed and they, he caught a lot of shit for that. A lot of shit. Um, pumpkins were like, yeah, you're done, you don't want to go on the tour.
Lou:Who was the keyboard player in the pumpkins?
Scott:He was uh, that was. I think that was. Uh was your brother there, Right I?
Lou:just I thought there were a, he was, he was like a road like a tour he was a studio guy, yeah.
Scott:Yeah, I saw a video of them. I was always right with that. I saw a video of them when they were younger. Fucking that dude cannot sing to fucking save his life.
Lou:He sounds like Lucille ball to me. That motherfucker.
Scott:What's his name?
Lou:Um pumpkin head Billy Corgan, jackie Coon.
Scott:That dude I always said seeing them live. And now what they've done is they tweak his voice live. They have to work it up. Can he sing like this?
Lou:Fucking go watch an old live video of them.
Scott:I don't know how they got away with this.
Lou:I have no idea. I don't either, I don't either. I don't know the drummer. The drummer, jimmy Chamberlain, yeah, what about? He's great.
Scott:Oh, yeah, yeah. I mean the good musicians they don't like each other, though I bet he Corgan kind of fucked them over.
Lou:I think he appealed. Yeah, that voice had a certain appeal to a certain audience at that time.
Scott:Well, when it's studio, his studio voices are unique right.
Mark:Yeah.
Scott:When you hear them live and it's fucking horrible.
Lou:I never liked it.
Scott:Let's see. January 13th 1976, trial begins for seven Brunswick records and Dakar records employees, record company employees. The charge was stealing more than $184,000 in royalties from artists in on those labels. Brunswick records was a big label back then, wasn't it? Yes, there was in Dakar. Dakar was some kind of a that I don't know, but I remember seeing albums with the Dakar record label on it. How was it spelled? Uh, dakar, huh, okay, yeah, uh, let's see. On January 19th 1976, concert promoter Bill Sargent makes an offer of now, this is 1976. Right, 1976. This guy offered them $30 million, the Beatles, if they would reunite for a concert In 1976, $30 million, what's that today? 80. Yeah, right About 80 million.
Mark:That's what the Eagles get for each concert $30 million $80 million.
Lou:Did he have conditions? Was it for a concert? Was it for an album? It? Just says uh, just to get together and have a concert.
Scott:It seems like one concert, because you know how much money he would have made off that oh man. That would have been broadcast world wide. It would have been a satellite closed circuit television. Oh, no doubt.
Lou:Yeah, wow, uh, let's see February 15th. Well, is that also the year that Lauren Michaels offered the Beatles the regular fee for a musician to get together? Was that the 75?
Scott:Yeah, that was kind of a. I will pay the Beatles, right, he did a whole thing on Saturday Night Live. I'll pay the.
Lou:Beatles. That's when George Harrison showed up and played with Paul Simon.
Mark:That's right.
Scott:Uh, let's see Dave Phillips King of the 45s. Welcome to the show. As usual, good evening. Uh, he's back on schedule. He was. He was slipping for a little while he's he was. Uh, he'd come in like two hours into the show. I forgot Dave, but I think he mocks it on his calendar now he has an alert on his iPhone. Uh, february 15th 1976, betten Middler Bale seven members of her entourage out of jail after their arrest and uncharges a cocaine and marijuana. 76 now 76.
Lou:Right Not really, the blow was King.
Scott:Yeah, but that was. It was very uh, edgy.
Lou:Yeah.
Scott:He caught with that shit back then it was a little worse than it is today.
Lou:Mm. Hmm, there was a jazz musician's drug.
Scott:Yeah, yeah.
Mark:Today it's like did he have less than an eight ball 30, 30 days probation, that's it.
Scott:Uh, you kept changing Nice. No, I didn't, fucking. Mock Smith did it.
Mark:I actually made a pitch to switch it to Thursdays. But that's right, we were supposed to do that. Yeah, yeah.
Scott:It's okay, we can still do it. No, no, I listen, I want to accommodate you, buddy, I can do it.
Lou:Well, it would help me to.
Scott:Oh, oh, that's right, and then I went on break and then we forgot about it. So, no problem, no, no, I, I, I, I want to, uh, I want to work with you guys.
Mark:I'm doing. Do we need to go to HR and talk about it After the show?
Scott:what is? What is the AI? Perry? That is what you think about. We have to, we have to run it by the AI.
Lou:Yeah it works, he's got to process it working through and then we're gonna make a schedule. Yeah.
Scott:Thursday is good, thursday works. No, actually, fuck Lou, fuck Mark.
Lou:I'm doing it on Tuesday.
Scott:Uh, let's see. February 19th, former tower of power lead singer Rick Stevens is arrested.
Lou:A lot, of arrests since 76 big story rebels rebels.
Scott:They knew how to get that. It was all about getting the publicity. The drug related murders yeah, three men in San. Jose.
Lou:I read that story yeah.
Scott:Well, fill us in what's what's it was?
Lou:It was drug deals and stuff like that. I think he might've killed one of the guys because the guy witnessed something. So he killed two guys, and this is a loose quote. I think he found the other guy, the third guy, just to silence him.
Scott:Um sure, his name wasn't Aaron Hernandez.
Lou:I missed that one Tyden from the New England Patriots.
Scott:Oh God Years back. Yeah, that's right. Dark humor, I forgot sports. Sports is not a forte over, not really. It does have a fucking Canadians Jersey on the soccer.
Mark:He's a soccer guy. This ain't soccer, this is hockey. I can't know that but you're a happy town All right, wait a minute.
Scott:Tuesday at five with Todd Sockman says Tuesday at five because that's when Machi Ramon. Machi Ramon does his terrible show in serious. He says my MAI CHI, yeah, he's the cousin of the remote. Oh boy, he was the road. He says he put the drum kit together, does a terrible show in serious exception. And evidently Todd listens to that show.
Lou:As terrible as it is.
Scott:Oh, machi Ramon, Machi Ramon from New York, I'm going to talk like this. I was saying I like this song back in the day, or CBGB, I was out there, we were playing. I like this group. We hung out with them, drank some beers. It's the circle jerks. That's why it's terrible.
Mark:Well, you know, it's just as weird as a little Steven on his underdrying.
Lou:We were like I like hearing what it's still the Odonte.
Mark:I live here, but he'd like he talks about history, you know he does, which is really good.
Scott:So Lou, so that was it. He murdered two and then, and then silence. I think I think yeah.
Lou:And then he went to jail for a long time. He'd have like liver disease and stuff, but he's the singer on the song. What is hip, I wonder. More well known song, a good, good vocalist, but yeah, okay.
Scott:February 20th. What's?
Lou:that I was saying the title February 20th 1976.
Scott:Wow, we're going in February already. Kiss, have their footprints added to the sidewalk outside Hollywood's grown Grown in Chinese. What the fuck was like it was with the dragon boots. What fucking footprints.
Mark:Oh, they didn't want to get their hands, they've. Jean didn't want to get his hands dirty.
Lou:That's what, yeah, and then there was a year after they got famous.
Scott:Mark Flynn just commented in Montreal Canadian shirt and I was just beginning to like you, son. Oh, you gotta understand my audience.
Mark:This is the shirt I wore to the garden.
Scott:Well, our audience but I brought them along. I got my boss in that faction. So, yeah, what the fuck? So? So what? Paul Stanley and his his star man boots like Stan, how deep was the fuck? And cement right Like it's not even going to be a footprint, it's going to be like it really like high heels, like teeth marks or something. Fuck.
Lou:Was there? Was it up? Peter, chris had like poor prints, like cat paws, yeah, yeah.
Scott:What did he wear when he was putting the drugs on? Let's see. February 24th, released one week before the Eagles greatest hits 71 to 75 compilation, becomes the first album certified platinum by the RIA. Wow, uh. The new platinum certification represents sales of at least one million copies for albums and two million copies for singles. Globally, it will become probably the second best selling album of all time.
Lou:You know it's weird, there was what 75, they just put out one of these nights. They didn't have like a whole 71 to say they only have four years of music. Yeah, but it wasn't a trouble to hits, but I wonder why that caught on like that when it did, when you know they were popular and one of these nights was a big record. But I think it marketing, I guess, and timing, I mean, I think it was probably on the strength of one of these nights. Yeah Well, yeah.
Lou:So that doesn't have anything hotel California on it.
Scott:Right, uh, february 28th, end of the month, my father's birthday. Um, let me see the 18th annual Grammy Awards, presented in Los Angeles, hosted by Andy Williams.

Got them a fucking summer TV series written by Neil Sedaka. Yep, so docket is back.

Scott:How could not? I don't think there's anybody I haven't met If I said hey, what are you thinking? Natalie Cole, she sucks Right, right.

Scott:I I've talked about this band a few times. I had a, I had a big argument with jack over this, but uh, I think the dam, the dam got overlooked, as Is probably maybe the first true punk band. They were the first punk band to come.

Mark:They were more, like I said, a new wave pop band I always I always looked at as the punk ethos was to Fuck musicianship, we're just gonna bang around, they have no talent.
Lou:That was more like kind of like green day sex pistols. Yeah, the drummer is good to create the clash.

Lou:Jim Messina was supposed to produce Kenny Loggins this solo record and that became Loggins and Messina because they became a duo. But it wasn't the intention.
Scott:Okay Right. The Noel Redding band broke up in 1976.

Yeah, how'd the keyboard player got? Because the keyboard player was friends with the agent. Oh, they wrote the song, they didn't have any credits, they didn't do anything. So the, the record, so the, the the manager is like I'll just put your name on it, wow, so the fucking keyboard player gets all the money from it.

And that fucking little blonde dude takes the second place trophy, the participation trophy and fucking throws it at them, and then they all start drinking pound of beers right Pour beer over their heads and fuck participation trophies.
Mark:You know it's funny If you watch it now on streaming. They leave the whole movie intact. The only scene they took out there is the scene with a little blonde kid opens a beer and hands it to Walter Mathau. That's the scene they cut out. That's bullshit, that's because you serve an alcohol to an all. Yeah, that's bullshit.
Lou:I bought my mom's cigarettes. You know who did that.
Scott:It wasn't my side.
Mark:It wasn't my side either, I think it was.
Lou:I think it was lawyers, I don't know.
Mark:You want to go for it.
Scott:So you want to go, no, you remember Kelly Lee right, Probably one of the one of the most how could I say loved characters of our generation. Kelly Lee, the dude on the motorcycle.
Mark:What happened to?
Scott:him because he looked for you to play Rorschach in in the. What's it called? What's the fucking movie?
Mark:because he looks familiar. When I saw the movie I can know he's done all the stuff.

Scott:Shot or island the Watchman. The Watchman is where he played Rorschach.
Lou:He played the Watchman. Yeah, I want to see that.
Mark:Oh, underrated movie he played a convicted sex offender in some movie. It was like one of those movies, like just quirky small movie Strange looking dude and he comes to swim in the pool the community pool and they all get out of the pool.
Scott:He looks strange as he got all strange, yeah, yeah, great actor though he did, he played the two in 2010,. The remake of Nightmare on Elm Street.
Mark:Oh, that was horrible. Yeah, it was bad. I got 10 minutes into it and I'm like where's the humor?
Scott:Yeah, yeah, but the Watchman Jack Jackie Earl Haley, he's a good actor. Okay, he's a good actor.
Mark:I give him that. Hey, if you you know people go, I don't like him because I hated that role, that means he's a good actor.
Scott:Yeah, yeah, yeah, when you say I hated him while he did a good job Lou one of my favorite movies of all time Marathon man. Is it safe?
Lou:Is it safe? Yeah, yeah, it's safe, it's safe.
Scott:No, no, no it's not safe, not safe, no, is it safe.
Mark:I thought the Cheech and Chong remake of that scene was better. The what the Cheech and Chong Remember. One of their albums they redid Marathon man.
Scott:Give us the plans on? Man, I didn't see papers. Oh no, no, oh, wow man, he put a cigarette out his eye. Man, Wow man.
Lou:In Marathon man there are two wine references that Roy Schuider makes when he, when Dustin Hoffman comes home and Roy Schuider had broken into his apartment in Surprises and they're wrestling, yeah, and he asked for two wine glasses. So Dustin Hoffman says you're not going to form me with the glories of a fine Bordeaux, are you? And Robert? And Roy Schuider goes it's a Beaujolais-ish muck.
Lou:And when they go out to dinner with Martha Keller as Dustin Hoffman's girlfriend and they're just totally mismatched. Yeah, and Roy Schuider goes all the best diamonds have green eyes All the no. All the best, like diamonds. All the best chablis have green eyes. That's when she knows he's on tour.
Scott:Look at that Lube Wine guy.
Mark:I never saw that move. No, I gotta watch it.
Scott:You've never seen Marathon. Man I might actually rewatch it. I mean, it's a great. I've seen it a bunch of times.
Lou:Yeah, it's a Dustin Hoffman, roy Schuider, lawrence Olivier plays the Nazi. Yes.
Mark:Yeah, he does many roles as a Nazi, yeah.
Scott:You have to watch it on like a streaming show he was a.
Lou:Nazi hunter in Boise. Oh, okay.
Scott:Boise from Brazil. He was a Nazi. Yeah yeah, don't watch it on. Like with commercials, you have to watch it.
Lou:Yeah, yeah, yeah, william Devane is in it all.
Scott:Yes, yes, great movie, another movie from 76. I had that movie.
Mark:Great movie.
Lou:What's there to say? What His?
Scott:brother-in-law was actually. I forget the actor's name, but he was Tali shy is brother right In the movie. Yeah, his girlfriend's brother. He was a real boxer. Yeah, he was. He was a bad motherfucker.
Lou:Yeah, that dude was a bad motherfucker. He had a good record too.
Scott:Yeah, like that dude could fucking hit, he could fight. He looked like this, like kind of scrubby guy, but that motherfucker, he was a fighter.
Mark:Did you ever see the episode of Sopranos? Yes, and he had emphysema and he's coughing up blood.
Scott:He was the brother, he was one of the hitmen brothers. Yeah, there was three brothers. They were all hitmen, and he does the hit. He's fucking guys. Wait, the junior recommends him. Yeah, get the, get the Leonore brothers over in Jersey, go talk to them. And he's thinking that these big fucking hitmen and there's three old guys yeah, he's one of them with the fucking emphysema.
Lou:Yeah, he was dying of lung cancer. He was dying of lung cancer and that thing he's Bobby Bakal as father. Yeah, yeah, but if he ends up killing, he ends up killing his own nephew. Must think Sally, oh, that's right. So yeah, must think Sally hits the guy in the head with the golf club. Yeah, yeah, that was horrible, yeah, but now what song is playing when Bert Young is coughing to death when he crashes the car into the sign? What song is playing? I love Sister Golden Hair by America.
Mark:Oh wow, Look at that. What a dichotomy, Such a weird. I wonder why they picked that song.
Lou:But you know, when he hits he's coughing. He hits the sign, the sign falls and Uncle Junior goes. Was it the sign of the cancer that killed him? Because Uncle Junior is worried about everyone dying of this.
Mark:Yeah father, mark the enforcer, oh yeah, and I always thought that was a dirty Harry movie until someone in school said, no, you shmuck, he's not dirty Harry, and I didn't know that that he did the gauntlet was, I think, dirty Harry.
Scott:Yeah, there was a dirty.
Mark:Harry movie. So, yeah, no, the enforcers, no, no, I'm not, that's the enforcer, was dirty.
Scott:The enforcer was dirty Harry, gauntlet wasn't. That was the next one.
Mark:that wasn't dirty Harry, and that's where they shut up the house, and the house collapsed.
Scott:Yeah, the enforcer was dirty. That was the third one. Yeah, yeah.
Lou:Yeah, lou, I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore. Network, network. I want you to go to the window. I want you to open that window.
Scott:I want you to lean outside and scream at the time. I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore.
Mark:This country's gone to shit, I'm Thomas, I'm drinking my wine. I said I'm commis and I'm enjoying the show.
Lou:That was a great season, I let it go. Oh yeah, it's iconic yeah.
Scott:I never applied to today. That is so. Absolutely cycles around.
Mark:I never saw that movie either. I got to watch it yeah.
Scott:Yeah, peter, he is like she's just fucking one of my beautiful.
Lou:Yeah, she was beautiful. Yes, she is, she's still alive. I think Peter French won the posthumous actor. He died right after that movie, so he won an Oscar posthumously.
Scott:Yeah, yeah. Are you going to pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?
Lou:What movie yeah Well?
Scott:Josie Wells yeah, Did I jump. Did I jump over you Lou?
Lou:No, no, I actually no, I did, I did mine you did network.
Scott:That's right. Yeah, outlawed Josie Wells, that poor dog always getting spit on.
Lou:Yeah, great fucking movie. Yes, it is, yep.
Scott:The Clint East would ever make a bad Western.
Mark:No no. You know what I got to go so far as to say even the worst Clint Eastwood movie is still watchable.
Lou:What is it? What we think is the?
Mark:you know what A lot of people didn't like that one where he was a Civil War soldier and he was kidnapped by oh, by the nuns, by the, the nuns, yeah.
Lou:The.
Scott:Beguiled. But you know what I didn't see? That that was crazy.
Mark:That was a psychological yeah, the other one where he was a DJ on a jazz station.
Scott:Play Misty for me.
Mark:Those people go. Oh, they suck. No, they didn't know it.
Scott:No, it didn't Play. Misty for me was weird too, yeah, yeah.
Lou:It was different.
Mark:Yeah.
Scott:Yeah, but the outlawed Josie Wells, that that's great. Yeah, that's one of his epics, yep.
Mark:Mark, I'm going to go with the one I grew up with, the version of King Kong. King Kong, that 76 one is the one I know. Yeah.
Lou:Yeah, and it was good.
Mark:I fell in love with what was her name Jessica.
Scott:Lane, yeah, yeah.
Mark:And I thought what's the same was cool with the long hair. That's probably why I grew my hair. He was like so cool.
Lou:Yeah, jeff Bridges.
Mark:Yeah.
Lou:Yeah, charles Gruden.
Scott:Who was the original actress in King Kong, faye Ray.
Mark:There you go, by the way. A little little connection there in the 76.
Lou:I like the original too. The real thing is amazing.
Mark:Well, in 76 one Renee Auburn Ace was in it, who was also in Benson, one of my favorite. He was in Benson, that's right, and I love Benson that was my first school. That was my first crush. Missy Gold in Benson yeah, that was my first crush.
Lou:I think you say Robby Guillaume.
Lou:That is Benson I love soap, the Food of the Gods. Have you ever seen that movie? That's a weird movie. That's a fucking weird movie. What the hell did you feed that chicken? Yeah, that's a weird movie. The guy that starred that movie, marjo Gortner there's a documentary about him. He was a young Pentecostal preacher at the age like six or something. He was one of those kids that would be screaming fire and brimstone but there's a documentary about him. But he suddenly became an actor. You did that, but I just I don't. That move was a novel. Some science fiction novel wrote it, but it was a that was like a wacky drive-in theater.
Scott:Yeah.
Lou:Yeah, I remember moping the barn.
Scott:This giant chicken head comes Weird oh, by the way, clint Eastwood directed outlaw Josie Wills.
Lou:Yes, he did, director, yes, he did.
Scott:I'm gonna go with One of John Coppenter's. It was a great. This is a classic John Coppenter movie and I don't think people really relate him to this movie. Assault on precinct 13. Yeah, yeah he just had a way of filming things.
Lou:That's a job, that's a John carbon. Yeah, I didn't say very good, very good, you never saw the original.
Scott:I gotta watch. That assault on pre-sync was there was it remade also.
Lou:Yeah, yeah, okay.
Scott:It was, which wasn't bad. But if you can't do that, you can't beat the John Coppenter file style of filming. I know my brother is gonna be taking the list now of watching these movies, so Let me stop for a second. Yesterday I Did a live stream right in the middle of the day and I ate a. I combined a whopper in a Big Mac together. You can go back on my Facebook page and see which show was it on. I just did a live stream. I just went on for lunch like regular and I had the Lodge Burger King onion rings which I love those things in a large fry and I combined the whopper and the Big Mac together. So the Big Mac, whopper, right, and I ate this fucking thing, yeah it's.
Scott:Civil War in your stomach, Dude. I gotta. I can eat. I could be. Someone said I should be in food like competitions. I I should go to restaurants and challenge these.
Mark:I do these challenges in Tacona Island, like lately, probably do it.
Scott:No, but I ate that thing. And how did you? How did you do? How did you did you? Construction was interesting. Yeah, constructing it, I didn't know. So that, and believe it or not, the Big Mac burgers are actually small. If you take the two Big Mac burgers, it's probably maybe this the size of a whopper burger. I'm pretty much actually a bigger burger. It is superior burger right.
Scott:Although it's all made of shit, but yeah either way. So I took the bread off the top of the Big Mac, right, and I folded it because I gotta eat the whole thing. So I ate the bread on its own. That's an odd fucking thing to eat because you really, you really get the Idea of what that bread is really made of. It's kind of chewy, yeah, right. But that that was the top and I took the bottom so I flipped it over and I put it. I opened the big, the whopper and I put it right on top of that. So then I take the bottom bun from the Big Mac which has all the special sauce, another thousand island dressing, and I folded that. Now that was a little better because it had the thousand island dressing in it. Yeah, the buns are really strange. There's a reason. They have fucking longevity.
Mark:Cuz, I don't know how much real dough is in those motherfucking.
Lou:It's me by itself.
Scott:You'll just try it on time, just take the talk and eat it and go. It's a different consistency, it's just a little bit different, right. So then you take the whopper top and you put it on. You got it's big fucking. It's like two, three inches, three inches fucking tall and I eat that fucking thing, right, and I ate the large fries and the in the large onion ring large fries are from McDonald's or Burger King. From McDonald's Burger King onion rings. Yeah, I always get the onion rings got it.
Lou:I'm surprised.
Scott:Yeah, and I don't eat that shit too often, I really don't but I was like I said I was gonna do it. I was kind of hungry, so I'm just gonna do it. So I did it. I just went live and did it. I just burped up fucking onion rings. That was 28 hours ago 29 hours ago. That's a. That was probably about 4,000 calories you ever see online.
Mark:There's that video of the guy that takes a hamburger from a barbecue, puts it and then he puts a Whopper and he leaves them for like weeks and weeks.
Scott:Yeah, yeah.
Mark:Yeah, under the glass and the whopper doesn't. It was, it was, it was a quarter pounder, I think it was okay like that because he said that it's not really bread on the bun, so it doesn't go bad I threw one out inside of my car at the kennels when I was in US customs.
Scott:I and it's in a dirt parking lot and I came back fucking every day.
Mark:I looked at it and think did not disintegrate, that's so they can leave him a fire home, so I ate that shit and I can.
Scott:You can tell you when you eat it. By itself. It's kind of weird. Yeah, I don't fucking wait. I'd love to know what it's made of so I did that. Now, the next thing I'm going to do is I'm gonna take a steak and cheese sub, or cheese steak as people in the New Englanders call it a steak and cheese, because it's steak or cheese yeah.
Scott:Steak thing doesn't fucking make sense to me, just like water ice. It's fucking. What ice is water? Philadelphia they call water ice. They're pretty, they're more ones anyways. They're goons. So I'm gonna take a large steak and cheese sub and roll it in a pizza.
Lou:Mentioned it, cut it in half, oh my god.
Scott:So that's the next thing I'm gonna eat 52 months a steak so.
Mark:I'm not disgusted by that, but those are two of my favorite things, so it's like orgasmic.
Lou:You know? So it is a pizza of plain pizzas, or yeah?
Scott:I'm not gonna.
Lou:Ballistic on that.
Scott:I'm not gonna have the pepperoni, so that takes away from the. Take the steak and cheese right from the cheese steak yeah the cheese steak, whatever, yeah, so the. Philly the Philly cheese steak but that's what I'm gonna do next. I'll let you guys know I'm up on your rings from 29 hours of good Lord and what happened about 16 hours later. Dude, I was sitting on. Those onion rings are like Just go right through me. I love them, but they don't last long.
Mark:They got little eye guys and those onion rings are going here. Come on, boys, let's show you piss it out.
Scott:I eat these, these Burger King on your rings. They go right out the back. Yeah but they're fucking good, I love it there's no such thing as fucking onion ring sauce, by the way. That's fucking made up bullshit. Catch up, I just do him playing.
Mark:He put a little mayo in the ketchup.
Scott:But other than that, they try to say the zeal, you want, the onion rings, let's get the fuck. Is that Made up, shit? Anyways, back to the show. Whose turn was it? I'll say you know you know?
Mark:yeah, because you know what you're gonna laugh. Every movie you pick is my next pick. So I'm down to very few. Hold on, hold on All the presidents, men deep through.
Lou:Yeah, yeah.
Mark:Yeah.
Lou:Good cast too.
Mark:Yeah, yeah, I'm done, you can. Oh no, I got one more. I got one more.
Lou:Yes, the last tycoon oh.
Scott:Yeah, that was with.
Lou:Robert De Niro. Robert De Niro, yeah, jack Nicholson, tony Curtis. Yeah, it's based loosely. Not a people thought it was about Aristotle on asses, but it's. It's a novel, but apparently was. It was not a success. If I looked at the rotten tomato scores, got like a 32 score and run, so it was a flop. Yeah, yeah, with a big cast my first wife God rest of.
Scott:So she loved Tony Curtis, tony Curtis.
Lou:When he was young, off she loved him.
Scott:She also like on Jovi too. I was like yeah. I'm happy with Tony Curtis.
Mark:Tony Curtis in the Flintstones we should Tony Curtis.
Scott:Like. Look like an old lesbian, john Bon Jovi looks like an old Scott Scott.
Mark:I sent Lou and Perry a picture of David Coverdale. He beats John Bon Jovi.
Scott:Steve Tyler looks like oh, collie Simon.

Lou:I think I might have saw that a.
Scott:Star is born the only version of the movie. I'll ever see another remake right. Guys talented. But I gotta say I'm sticking with the Chris Christoff's Year for him. I like the lady cow version.
Mark:But Chris Christofferson embodied that character better than Bradley by, by Thousand miles. You know he was good.
Lou:Did the the seller who fell from grace with the sea, Another Chris Christofferson's movie in 76. I didn't see it. I think it's more like an art house movie.

She got a flat stomach, like, just like damn long and lean. Anyway, and this day in 1967, ode to Billy Joe, the debut album by Bobby Gentry, was at number one in the US charts. It was the only album to displace the Beatles Sergeant Pepper's lonely hearts club band from its 15 week reign at the top of the Billboard 200 chart.

After repeatedly asking Elvis to move on so he could resume normal business, station manager Ed Hopper slapped Presley on the head and found himself on the receiving end of a punch in the face from Elvis. Station employee Aubrey Brown tried to help his boss but was no match for Presley. Evidently he punched her in the face too. After police called Hopper and Brown would charge with assault and we'll find $25 and $15 respectively. Yeah, I'm assuming Aubrey is brown. Aubrey Brown is a girl, because if you're a man and your name is Aubrey Brown, well you better change your name. That's what I'd say. Change the Sue. Yeah, that's a great song. That's a great story.
