This is a hit gum original.

0:06

One

0:06

of my biggest complaints in any song

0:08

is that in the song Earl had to die. You

0:10

guys are familiar with Earl had to die, the Dixie

0:12

Chick's hit. Yes. Love that song. Sure.

0:14

So hate Earl out. So I love the

0:17

song. when Wanda is

0:19

abused, her friend gets on

0:21

a red eye flight from

0:23

Atlanta to go

0:26

back and be with her friend. But when

0:28

you think about red eye flights, red

0:30

eye flights only fly in

0:33

one direction. and that's

0:35

east. You fly east so you

0:37

can sleep overnight. What's east of

0:39

Atlanta? The whole song is

0:41

taking place in

0:42

France. you.

0:44

The

0:46

Dixie chicks have been French this whole time.

0:48

They they mucked up the air travel ass

0:50

on air travel, but it takes the whole it takes me

0:52

out of the whole song. Now I don't believe Earl

0:54

is bad. I think that Dixie chicks are French,

0:56

but that explains why their business of

0:58

selling Tennessee Ham is such

1:01

a is such a hit at the end of the century.

1:03

French people would like a top dollar

1:05

for a handmade in different country. I'm forgetting

1:07

what happened to this song. Is it a fried green tomatoes

1:09

thing? Is it a it is a fried green no.

1:12

Earl is not in the ham a la fried green

1:14

tomatoes, but he is I think he's dumped in lake.

1:16

It's not explicit. That is a

1:18

spicy spicy take. Yeah. That's why

1:20

we're here. This hottest takes That

1:22

was a fucking burned. You think that was the lava.

1:24

Lava. I hope the chick's never hear

1:27

that that part of the podcast. Honestly, you'd be

1:29

fuck In Natalie, man, I mean, plug your

1:31

ears.

1:33

Let's punch it.

1:51

Welcome back to another week of punch

1:53

up the jam, the podcast where we listen to

1:55

the greatest songs ever. And then

1:57

somehow, inextricably, un

1:59

unexpectedly, we make them

2:02

better every week. I guess it's not unexpected

2:05

anymore. Yes. We do that. We're we're making the impossible

2:07

possible every single week. And if we didn't,

2:10

If we flouted the very name of our own podcast,

2:13

that'd be rude. That'd just be rude. I

2:16

am one of your host, Andrew Gregory, and

2:19

I'm the other host and Andrew's brother,

2:21

Evan Gregory. And we are doing a

2:23

song this week. Evan

2:25

very subtly teased it

2:27

there. rid by

2:29

magic. That was a fan suggestion. You saw

2:31

this come in. Right, Evan? Yeah. We're

2:34

hungry for it. just fly right

2:36

into our DM's, suggest this on

2:38

getting our app replies, suggest this on, we

2:40

keep a running list, and

2:42

sometimes a fan

2:44

will just nail it with a song that was

2:47

both a huge hit and dumb.

2:50

Yeah. I will say some fans are really

2:52

bad at doing this. if you send

2:54

us a song, make sure it's a song that we possibly

2:56

could have heard of. We

2:58

get a lot of fan suggestions that are just

3:00

like, Let's

3:03

just say they're not the greatest hits. The tenth

3:05

track off of this eighties. Yeah. Be

3:07

This is one of the biggest ever. This

3:09

is a big hit. This is one that matters.

3:12

This is a this is a two billion view

3:14

YouTube video, rooted by magic.

3:17

Number one hit, year end billboard

3:20

charts. It was decade end, Evan. This is

3:22

one of the biggest hits of the decade when

3:24

when billboard made their own, like, two thousand

3:26

ten to two thousand nineteen chart. This this this

3:29

is on it. And we're joined

3:31

this week by the Wall's of Glendale.

3:34

Welcome to the show, wolves of

3:36

Glendale. We are joined by Tom, Ethan

3:39

and Eric. The three wolves, the three

3:41

wolves of Glendale. This is

3:43

a band that writes songs

3:46

that manage to not only be extremely funny,

3:48

but also very catchy. I

3:50

you will enjoy listening to this

3:52

music in addition to laughing

3:55

at it. But we're really excited to have him on the show

3:57

because they're about to go out on some

4:00

dates. You can catch these guys soon at the New

4:02

York comedy festival more, you can see them

4:04

opening four jukebox, the ghost of the

4:06

end of October. Tom, Ian and

4:08

Eric, welcome to the show. What's

4:10

up? What up? Thank

4:12

you for that lovely intro. Very kind.

4:15

You're so welcome. You've done us

4:17

a huge favor by by bringing

4:19

your musical insight and

4:23

your perspectives as humans

4:25

that were alive at the time that this song came

4:27

out. So we're really appreciative

4:29

that you would come here and help us do

4:31

this important and culture changing work.

4:35

Yeah. You're welcome. You're welcome. And the and

4:37

the fans are welcome. Who assume also

4:39

not just requested the song, but we have been requesting

4:42

us probably really aggressively.

4:44

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Total of Gauls have gone. The Gauls

4:46

have gone. Get them on. Well, like, we specifically

4:49

to talk about Root. Right. Everyone

4:51

wants to hear us talk about Root and hear we are. We're finally

4:53

gonna do it. Yeah. When the song Root came up, they knew there

4:55

was only one guest really good good walk through

4:57

it. It's not a single person. It's actually three

4:59

men that are members of one one

5:01

band. Three hard boys. Three hard boys

5:04

in their thirties. Yeah. Three root,

5:06

root guys. Three root thirty people.

5:08

root beer, root boys. We're

5:11

gonna we're gonna be so rude to this song. I will

5:13

say, you know, I don't wanna get straight into

5:15

it without I don't wanna be too soft on my

5:17

endorsement of Woolsey Glendale. So I'm just gonna

5:19

say, the song that really brought

5:22

me into your fan base is when my

5:25

heart saw you in a bit not in

5:27

in person because I came to a label that saw video

5:29

of you guys performing at the Rockwood Music Hall in Downtown

5:31

New York of Venue that's near and dear to my heart and you

5:33

sing this song about living with a ghost called

5:36

Olivia, that both sounded

5:38

like it could have been penned by

5:40

hollow notes or maybe like it's a very

5:42

funny song, so maybe penned by Allen

5:45

Notes. It just sounded

5:47

Titus l and also really made me L0L

5:49

So that's my first recommendation is

5:52

Olivia by wolves of Clint.

5:54

I don't wanna go too soft and just like tell the fans

5:56

like, oh, yeah. These guys are funny. I'm I

5:58

roll in with specific. That's very hard

6:00

a hard recommendation. Yeah. That was that

6:02

was hard a f, and you'll be happy to know that's

6:05

also gonna be our first single. We we're we're

6:07

cooking up music video for Olivia. So

6:09

by your request. Everything's about fan requests

6:11

today. And so by by

6:13

your request that song's coming at you in

6:16

full format, recorded format. Yeah.

6:19

I love to hear it. Hey. That

6:21

recommendation was so strong. Frankly,

6:23

I'm concerned that other guests we'll

6:25

hear it. Previous guests -- Mhmm.

6:28

-- and be dismayed

6:30

that there is. Recommendation so soft and

6:32

future guests will demand that

6:34

that their introduction be that good? You said

6:36

I went too hard. I'm hurting people in the future.

6:39

No. No. No. No. You went just

6:41

hard enough. a couple of hard boys here and I appreciate

6:43

it. Yeah. You have to you have to come at us hard

6:45

in order to equate our our energy.

6:48

And also we're three people. So you gotta go three

6:50

times as hard. as you would a normal

6:52

guest. Yeah. Super hard. I don't

6:54

think the band magic would even describe

6:56

themselves as a scar band. You don't

6:58

think so? No, you know. don't you think that they would

7:00

say it's this this is Reggitt. This is the sound of

7:03

Reggitt that has invaded our pop charts

7:05

once again in the same Marazian

7:08

style that Bruno Mars snuck

7:10

the lazy song into the charts. That's

7:12

a two billion view video. I love Bruno Mars

7:15

Yeah. The Jason Jason Maraz

7:18

the Jason Maraz influence cast a

7:20

long shadow straight into the lazy song.

7:22

This is not too long after soul

7:24

sister by train. Right.

7:26

With, like, the the ukulele kind

7:28

of, like, island. But just, like, Reagan is

7:31

not a picture on the charts, but every couple

7:33

years, a bro reggae song

7:35

will sneak in. It's like a prophecy. And,

7:38

yeah, we can say red red wine for

7:40

that. Yes. I see. Red, red, white,

7:42

perfect example of, like, they're just covering

7:44

an old ballad and doing a reggae spin

7:47

on it and they just sold it to what people.

7:49

Yeah. And the eleven love song. It's

7:51

like every eight years. There's a

7:53

cycle. Yeah. The American public can only

7:56

accept a small percentage of reggae

7:58

on the charts. Well, when it hits, it hits. And

8:00

those also means we're due right around

8:02

now because Rudy was twenty fifteen,

8:04

twenty fourteen ish. It's good. I feel like cycle

8:07

is getting tighter and tighter because in like

8:09

a five year period, you have soul sister,

8:11

you have lazy song by Bruno Mars, and you have

8:13

this. Like, and when the cycle comes down

8:15

to zero, that's like a cool that's like a time

8:17

bomb. Yeah. You know, you reach the regular

8:20

singularity. Where's it where's zero?

8:22

regular regular singularity. We could be approaching

8:24

the regular singularity. Oops. Andrew, would

8:26

you mind, you know, would you mind just sort setting

8:29

the table for us a little bit? Because this is

8:31

a really, really big version

8:33

of a one hit wonder. We don't know anything like

8:35

magic the band has not been

8:37

able to hit other than Root. So people

8:40

generally will not know anything about them like they

8:42

do know about, say, Bruno Mars or

8:44

or whatever. Would you hit us with just

8:46

like AAA little table of of song

8:48

facts sore facts. Oh.

8:51

But you gotta add us us a a base lap

8:54

on the end of the song facts. You need to know that. I

8:56

think, I think, you know, just to really springboard me

8:58

off off the song facts. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

9:00

You can do it. You can do that mainly. You don't have

9:02

to edit that out. Andrew

9:04

hates my I hate the slap bass.

9:07

antibase. Sound effects like Something something

9:09

morally. Our quest was more of

9:11

that actually over the next thirty years. Fuck

9:14

you. When is that if you

9:16

can put those two sounds together, Evan, you know,

9:20

one might say, give me two. Yeah. Let's

9:22

try it. Maybe you talk.

9:25

Get me two. Yeah. And

9:29

Yes. Now different keys.

9:32

I will it into the right thing. be really

9:34

tasty. There are any things that I hate and make one

9:36

thing that I'm like, oh, okay. So that was an important

9:40

point break drop I make Thank

9:42

you. This is the little this is the little place

9:44

on the corner. She tells me ball subs.

9:47

I won't be able to. You

9:49

talk. Oh,

9:51

Eric, that's a savage impression. So I

9:53

I knew that this Eric Are you

9:55

juicy or juicy? Of course,

9:57

I am. Okay. Let's go catch the

9:59

ex presidents. So

10:01

here's I mean, for anyone who's claims to be

10:03

juicy for Lucy, I have a single I

10:05

have a single litmus test, which

10:07

is Have you watched the movie Hider in

10:09

the house starring Michael McKean and me me

10:12

and Rogers? No. They're old, but Yeah. I love

10:14

Michael McKean. We're there building a house,

10:16

and Gary Busey has just been released

10:18

by from a psychiatric hospital and sneaks into

10:20

the house, and it's a little bit too close

10:22

to the hospital room. Too true to life. Yeah. It's too true

10:24

to life for Eric. You shouldn't watch it. Oh,

10:26

he lives in their house until the night drinks orange

10:28

juice. So, yeah, while while they're building

10:30

the house, he sneaks in and makes himself his own

10:32

secret cramps. So they don't know he lives inside

10:34

their how think it's done well. It's like a parasite

10:37

situation. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Very rare. See,

10:39

greatest beauty performance, but I think it hasn't

10:41

really caught on in the pop culture because not quotable

10:43

because he's always sneaking. he's just walking around

10:45

the house, bearing his huge booty and teeth. Oh,

10:47

yeah. Totally. Yeah. If you wanna

10:50

quote the movie the same way that you would like

10:52

quote, Anchorman or Old School or something if you're

10:54

a quote, the the movie hider in the house,

10:56

it's really just a silent move where you make your

10:58

face go like this. Yeah.

11:02

From just trying to imagine, cinema club

11:04

list. Yeah. We we actually do have the wolves of Glendale

11:06

cinema club. Oh, no kidding. Right

11:08

now, man. Small enough. us. It's

11:11

really just us right now, but but maybe at

11:13

some point we'll make it public. largely because

11:16

I have seen an embarrassingly little

11:19

number of films. Like, we just watched Kilbyl

11:21

part one and two this week for the first time. I had never

11:24

seen either of them. Yeah. Well, if you're watching good movies,

11:26

don't put Hider on the house on the list. Yeah.

11:28

Oh, okay. Okay. I'll watch that just with Eric

11:30

for Yeah. -- wasting time and Tom's doing

11:32

something important. So I I

11:34

think this was, like, a major one

11:37

hit wonder. And one of the things that really drove it

11:39

home for me in the most depressing of all ways,

11:41

I was gonna I was clicking their YouTube channel, I was like,

11:44

okay, this is a two billion view video.

11:46

And then their next couple singles are getting like

11:48

like one of them gets one of them gets a hundred million

11:50

views. That's But then, like, all their single since then

11:53

are getting in, like, the single to ten million

11:55

view. Kind of

11:57

it really matters which one is on the to play

12:00

after the first song. That's a big that's

12:02

a big difference. So I was was clicking around their

12:04

Wikipedia article and I got to their latest album.

12:06

and this this is the saddest thing for me. No one had

12:08

written Wikipedia article about their latest album.

12:11

Oh. There's such a there's such a wonder

12:13

that they tailed off so much that everyone was just like,

12:15

yeah, we don't We wrote one for their second

12:17

album primary colors, but this latest one,

12:19

we we're not gonna write about it. Their drummer

12:21

their drummer left the band or was kicked out. I'm not

12:23

sure which. then it's like the

12:26

only record of it is like there's the weird,

12:28

like, very vague Facebook post

12:30

where they just post a picture of the three of them.

12:32

a vague book. So there's no, like, on the there's no

12:35

interview with Rolling Stone or whatever. Magic.

12:37

Yeah. No one, like but I was like, oh, there

12:39

must be, like, like, III

12:41

guess I agree that this is saying the drummers out of the

12:43

group is not totally clear. I'll go check

12:45

the Rolling Stone news article about,

12:47

you know, Eric Thomas, the drummer forude

12:49

leaving, like, No. There is no media

12:51

article five years after after

12:54

Root was released. But the but the thing that

12:56

Blue and a little bit that I had no idea

12:59

about with Ruth Evans. Mhmm. Is

13:01

that not diss we were we were talking about

13:03

the Lazy song just a couple weeks ago with Bruno Mars,

13:05

not dissimilar to Boonamars,

13:08

Mastery, the lead singer of magic,

13:11

was a hit writer before

13:13

this song came out. man

13:15

has written had almost ten top

13:18

forty hits before the

13:20

singer, which makes which makes it confusing

13:22

as to why they never had another hit? Yes.

13:25

Yes. You oh, you're shirting out hits.

13:27

He's riding hits for beaver. He's riding

13:29

hits for new kids on the block

13:32

For their comeback, he's writing hits for

13:35

for Chris Brown. He won a Grammy for

13:37

one of Chris Brown's reps. Oh, he had a Grammy

13:39

pre he had a Grammy pre he had a Grammy pre Magic. Yeah. Pre Magic.

13:42

Wow. Like, when he when when they came out, that's,

13:44

like, the one thing I sort of knew about them was, like,

13:46

this guy's the next seea. Mhmm. You know?

13:48

But Yeah. because he can write it to him.

13:50

He really can't sing. He always doesn't know. And this was,

13:52

like, his hobby band. I watched this interview

13:54

that he did with Canadian TV and they were, like, man,

13:57

like, Rude, did you ever expect to be this

13:59

big? And

14:00

he gave

14:01

remarkably and refreshingly frank

14:03

answer, I think, from someone who's had

14:05

the perspective of like going into the studio with Chris Brown

14:07

and Justin Bieber. He was just like, no.

14:10

Like I saw this as being like a boutique rock

14:12

song, that it was, like, a very industry

14:14

answer. You know, like, he was in his thirties when

14:16

he did this, when he wrote this, he's already had, like, the

14:18

successful career as a hit writer. And he's, like,

14:20

no. I kinda saw this as a boutique rock song that maybe

14:22

you would have. Like, maybe you could get some airplane

14:25

college radio, but, like, I'd never expect to be

14:27

a number one hit on the the billboard chart. Wow.

14:30

And I I agree. would never expect to be number

14:32

one. It doesn't feel like a college

14:34

radio hit. Yeah. It does feel like college radio

14:37

hit that should be in, like, a reboot

14:39

of American Pie. This would be the great song

14:42

to hit the top of the chart for

14:44

college radio and then have someone here

14:46

and be like, you know what? We should reboot the

14:48

American Fire franchise just to put this in -- Mhmm. -- you

14:50

know, I will say, like, formulaically

14:53

speaking, I think that when you're combining

14:55

a few of these elements, which are, like,

14:58

really catchy, poppy song,

15:01

then you have like the storyline which is

15:03

like very easy to follow very basic

15:05

storyline and A love

15:07

story that involves a wedding

15:10

or marriage or proposal. High stakes.

15:12

That to me is like, oh, you are

15:14

you're getting close to the core here. This is radioactive

15:17

stuff. This could explode. Yeah. because everybody

15:19

loves that like always. And much

15:21

like Bruno Mars and other

15:24

artists of that ilk like if you having

15:26

played a million weddings as a drummer,

15:29

if you can get in the wedding

15:32

playlist for a band to play,

15:34

your song fucking blew up.

15:36

Like, that's how you know the mark of a big

15:38

song. And so I think writing

15:40

a song about a wedding Right. And asking

15:42

for your daughter's hand to marriage, I've played

15:45

that song Root at a lot of weddings. You have

15:47

played this song Root at OES,

15:49

which is interesting because it's a song about

15:51

the dad saying, no. Dick. Yeah. Yeah.

15:53

I live a song. It's not about It

15:55

doesn't arrive at the wedding. It it arrives

15:58

at screaming about manners. Right.

16:01

Right. And and I also

16:04

I I listen to the tune you

16:06

know, before the pod, of course. Sure. And

16:08

that's the main thing that stuck out to me what you just

16:10

said, Evan, which is like, I don't think

16:13

the dad's being rude. I don't think

16:15

the song should be called rude. No. I'd

16:17

say, right. Of course. That's exactly

16:19

right. If being rude is like, if

16:21

you're at the movie theater and you're telling people

16:23

to move their feet so that you can go into

16:25

the row and you're like, hey, move your fucking

16:27

feet. That's rude. There's no

16:29

need to do that. You can just say, excuse me.

16:32

But, like, if you're asking for my daughter's hand

16:34

in marriage and I tell you no, that's

16:36

not a rude thing. You just haven't

16:38

impressed me. Yeah. I don't think you're right for

16:40

my daughter. Right. This is above

16:43

rude. This situation -- Yeah. -- honesty. Transcents

16:45

rude. Yeah. Call it honest honesty by

16:47

by Why you gotta be nasty. honesty.

16:50

Yeah. truth hurts, man. That

16:53

and that take Ethan, thank you for

16:55

saying it. That take to me

16:57

is not even that hot because

16:59

it's just so real just right

17:02

down the road. That's exactly the right assessment

17:04

of this song. What is

17:07

rude? Yeah. It sucks to ask the question.

17:10

and then be told to be vulnerable. Have

17:12

you have you guys are you have you guys married?

17:15

No. I'm engaged, though. So

17:18

you re say let's hear your proposal story is very

17:20

relevant. don't care about the proposal. Oh, no.

17:23

I don't care about the proposal. I wanna know.

17:25

Did you ask your father and father-in-law if

17:27

you could have your fiance's name? You asked her permission. You

17:30

did. You did. Ask her I did. Yes.

17:32

She is Kazick. She's from extent. And

17:35

so it was very, you know, they're

17:37

very rooted in their traditions and culture.

17:39

And I knew that that was part of it. And so I

17:41

had to I had to do that. and I was

17:44

really nervous for that. And,

17:46

you know, in a second, when you said that they're very rooted

17:48

in their culture, I thought you said Kazix are very rude.

17:50

And I was like, I was just bringing

17:53

We had about one syllables worth of suspense

17:55

about where you were going. Crude people. Yeah.

17:57

Yeah. I I recall you asked him to

17:59

move his side. You said, can you move your talking

18:02

feet. Can I also marry your daughter? Is

18:04

he wearing a black maverick? Or was it

18:06

like over FaceTime? No.

18:08

It was in person. I asked them I asked them in person

18:10

if they were they were in the states at that time next.

18:12

Yeah. No. No. It's sub doggy.

18:14

Are you up? But here, I guess And then how did and then

18:17

how did it go? Don't leave us in suspense. Oh,

18:19

it went great. Honestly, it was awesome.

18:21

I got I got approval from from

18:23

the dad, the mom, and her brother, I asked

18:25

him altogether. I wanted it to be kind of

18:27

like a a group approval. Just in case

18:29

anyone wanted to say no. Yeah.

18:32

But but the others could bring them over to the

18:34

your side. But your fiance knew this was

18:36

gonna happen in advance. You

18:38

weren't knew what? Your fiance knew you

18:40

you were gonna ask her family She knew

18:42

I was gonna ask. She didn't know when or how

18:44

I was gonna ask. Yeah. And I had to

18:46

find a time when she wasn't around -- Yeah.

18:48

-- because I don't know. I got felt appropriate.

18:51

I guess -- I guess that's -- my point

18:53

is that when you're proposing, if

18:55

you decide that this is part of your proposal,

18:58

culture, your proposal strategy to

19:00

ask your wife's father's. It's

19:03

like it's like lawyers say when

19:05

you're cross examining a witness. you

19:07

never ask a question

19:10

that you don't know -- I don't know you.

19:12

-- how the person's gonna answer it. You don't

19:14

just fly end. You don't wake up on

19:16

a Saturday morning. I think, like, maybe the day is

19:18

the day it could be. I'm gonna ask

19:20

my girlfriend's dad for random marriage.

19:23

You have to have it seen it. or less ridiculous.

19:25

Yes. Yes. He's just flying out of bed on

19:27

a Saturday morning, had some great, like

19:30

like Saturday morning sex and was like, let's light

19:32

this down. need this thing to be like We

19:34

all agree this. mission. That's

19:36

pretty rude. Yes. That's rude.

19:38

I got it. This needs to be like on a family vacation.

19:41

Reheater Dad or, like, happen to be, like, walking

19:43

on the beach or something, talking about life with a big

19:45

l. You know, is is

19:47

There's no evidence in the song

19:49

that he and the dad have brought down.

19:52

Yeah. Right. Absolutely. nothing in common.

19:54

gotta take that guy out of fishing trip, brother?

19:56

Yeah. Okay. We feel like they definitely haven't

19:58

hung out one on one based on the first

20:00

thirty seconds of the time. I mean, he knocks on the

20:02

door. They don't even get in the house. He's asking

20:04

about the threshold of his house. Yeah.

20:06

I think he thinks that he would be impressed by his

20:10

intensity and his candor is like, I love your

20:12

daughter so much. And I was like, put on a suit before

20:14

I got here. I dressed well. Right. And

20:16

the dad's like, no. He's not. Yeah.

20:18

He's a He's approaching it more

20:20

like he's the the approaching

20:23

the prospective girlfriend in a romantic comedy.

20:25

He's like out there with the boom box from say anything

20:27

thing. Like, please. Right. Let me marry your daughter

20:29

in thinking that the surprise will

20:31

add up to romance. He's he's

20:34

brash coming into the dad. The dad sinking. Oh,

20:36

yeah. No. He definitely has, like, borderline personality

20:38

disorder or something. The dad is,

20:40

like, this guy's knocking my door. This guy's pretty rude.

20:42

The dad the dad one hundred percent thinks

20:44

that the data's full.

20:47

This guy's rude, and you're right, probably has

20:49

either some mental problems or, you know, either

20:51

they could do a substance or something. I don't know. Yes.

20:54

This guy made some bad decisions. Yeah. Good personal

20:56

runs with Chris Brown. I know for a fact, this

20:58

guy wanted to win with Chris Brown. Yeah.

21:00

So let's let's do that with us.

21:03

We we don't wanna get into damning assessments

21:05

based on people's questionable friends,

21:07

but it does. It raises a question.

21:10

It does raise a question. Yep. Well, I think

21:12

it's a statement. I think we have sufficient background

21:16

and and table setting to get in the song here. Let me we're

21:18

just gonna play the song bit by bit. So

21:20

we can really take part of what's happening because

21:23

you're exactly right. Like, the ingredients are

21:25

there. One of those key ingredients is this narrative.

21:28

The the song is telling a story is painting a

21:30

picture. the

21:34

Right into it. Put

21:37

them up this soon. Got

21:39

in my car. Listen. I

21:41

mean, what is this? this guy's best suit

21:43

look like. Yeah. You know, this guy's best

21:45

suit does he have also? Yeah. Well, he

21:47

said, guy, he's gotta have a worse suit. He's yeah.

21:49

He has his best one, which means he has a couple

21:52

shitty ones. Have you guys have you guys seen the video

21:54

for the You guys seen the video. Right? It's a huge

21:56

video. Two billion views that, you know, many,

21:58

many people have seen the video multiple times.

22:00

So can we take This is not

22:02

one of those videos where, like, oh, it's a love song

22:05

and then they went to make the video and it's just

22:07

like pictures of the band performing and then like

22:09

vignettes of them on roll. Like something completely different,

22:11

you know. The video is clearly depict

22:14

the story of

22:16

the songs. So can we

22:18

accept that the video is canon in

22:20

the world of the song? That's a not by putting to

22:22

you. Yeah. In the in the magic cinematic universe

22:25

Exactly. -- MCU. Yeah. MCU.

22:27

But there's an exclamation point in there between

22:29

the m. Yeah. This MCU. m. Right.

22:32

The band name for those that don't recall

22:34

has exclamation point baked in.

22:36

Yes, sir. Your side bar, when

22:38

you're naming your And in this

22:40

day and age, you

22:42

gotta do the SEO. You have to Google

22:45

your prospective band name first. There is

22:47

no way that the band name magic is

22:49

ever coming up first, Harry Smart.

22:51

I will say this. I Googled magic band

22:53

and it brings you to Disney

22:56

Park access that you can wear on your

22:58

wrist. Yes. It's over magic magic.

23:00

That's awesome. It sucks. Congratulations. You

23:03

played yourself. They had one night of incredible

23:06

sex since they were, like, the problem

23:08

in shrooms or molly or something that's, like,

23:10

oh, you got married. And then

23:12

the the woman was, like, you gotta ask them from

23:14

my father's hand. It's so important and his traditional

23:16

than that. And then they drove he'd march

23:18

his ass right up to the house. And he didn't even march.

23:20

He said he literally rolled out of bed. He said,

23:22

I guess like -- Right. -- fucking do this today. Probably

23:25

in the bed from the morning. Yeah. Because they're Alright.

23:27

Well, let's go. And that handles it

23:29

over. That checks out as to why

23:31

he thinks that that is being rude. because

23:33

it's like, I'm tired. I just got up. I

23:35

was working all night if you know what I'm saying.

23:38

And I don't wanna be doing this.

23:40

I have to do this. I look at it now. so much.

23:42

You're gonna tell me. No on top of it.

23:44

It also explains why he's seeing to the dad

23:46

in reggae because he's just came back from sandals,

23:48

and he's like Yeah. Who wouldn't who wouldn't like reggae?

23:51

You said that we get sandals are just like Just

23:53

just like Right. That Island vibe,

23:55

I just wanna bring it back to everybody. knows the

23:57

best sandals in Montego. But but

24:00

You have You've created another

24:02

effect. You've created another layer of

24:04

entry gear, which is that sandals

24:08

is indisputably a

24:10

resort for couples. So in order to

24:12

meet there, they would have had to have already been

24:14

there on couples vacation with someone else.

24:16

Wow. And that's how so they're cheaters.

24:18

Well, so this is, like, our bright kids

24:20

type scenario potentially where

24:22

Well, then maybe it was more of a hedonism too.

24:25

Could've been a Could've been a hedonism

24:28

resort. Yeah. Singles only.

24:30

Yeah. But I I you've definitely really

24:32

hit on something where, like, the relationship is

24:34

undercooked here. Yeah. I don't

24:36

think that they really haven't arrived.

24:39

They getting engaged. But we finally

24:41

made it in the song too. The first,

24:43

frankly, is like, yes, it's telling the story,

24:45

but, like, it's a little bit filler to just

24:47

get to this pre chorus in which

24:50

the question is asked.

25:02

my favorite answer is

25:04

no. Oh, the answer is

25:06

no. No. One thing I

25:08

will say that really puts

25:11

the video in the m exclamation

25:13

point c u universe for me

25:16

or makes makes a cannon --

25:18

Yeah. -- is the dad lip syncs those lines.

25:21

It's like that. The cheesiest music video

25:23

way possible. Like, they cut to that who's just

25:25

like this this very, like they got

25:27

like this very normal fifty five

25:29

looking wasp. to just, like he's

25:32

lipcing her, like, her lip, you know, because if he's

25:34

now if I may I think I'm gonna go

25:37

back on something I said. as we're listening

25:39

to this song. You know, please? I'm realizing it's

25:41

great. Well, first of all, the song,

25:43

it's rock. It's not being ruled. Yeah. I started

25:45

to start to fight fire However,

25:50

the It is

25:52

totally fire certifiable. But

25:56

dad doesn't just say no. He says, you'll

25:58

never get my blessing until the day I die,

26:01

which is sort of threatening this dude

26:03

to kill him. I

26:06

just don't care about it like that. To the

26:08

day I die, maybe if you want my daughter, we gotta

26:10

have a fight to the dead Yeah. You can totally have my

26:12

daughter's hand in marriage. Yeah. Kill me. If you

26:14

can kill me. How good are you with a sword? Mirror

26:17

up my throat. It's been Wild West, synonymous

26:19

with over my dead body. Yeah. This

26:22

is not a soft know that's like,

26:24

hey, I really like you. I wanna

26:27

see you winning the election. I wanna see you in a career,

26:29

not a job before, you know.

26:31

Right. Yes. You know? Exactly. Well,

26:33

also, I mean, this guy's coming in super hot. So

26:35

sometimes you gotta match that energy. Oh,

26:37

it's okay. Got it. Like, bang your daughter last

26:39

night at hedonism too. I've marched

26:41

my ass up here. And can I have her for the rest

26:44

of my life? All of my boys are here. My boys

26:46

are here for all my friends. And he's like,

26:48

oh, I'm gonna kill you. Yeah. Yeah.

26:50

That's just kidding me. It's on. You

26:52

can't be here. It's an open me. Yeah. He's saying,

26:54

I have seen everything I need

26:56

to see from you, young man. You will

26:58

never get my blessing till the day.

27:00

I die. Right. But he also respects

27:03

the game. Yeah. I can give

27:05

so far so far where we're at in the song,

27:08

I'm gonna give what's the lead singer's

27:10

name? Eric Naffrey. Naffrey. Naffrey.

27:12

I'm gonna give Naffrey, like, a

27:15

six point five on the roots scale.

27:17

I'm giving the dad like A2I

27:19

think the dad is matching his energy voice voice.

27:21

being reasonable. Exactly. Yeah. Yes.

27:23

And he's being if I made a jump.

27:25

I, you know, I basically hate this song, but I

27:27

wanna I don't wanna just be completely one-sided.

27:30

I'm willing to accept and

27:32

and give credit credit is due, that, like,

27:34

the song is catchy as hell. Like, it doesn't

27:36

work on the top forty if they didn't absolutely

27:39

nail the melody. And this pre course is when it,

27:41

like, really starts come to focus that that

27:47

is just javed right in your ear. It's

27:49

so good and they moved like we

27:51

talk about the Reg A vibes a lot, but, like,

27:54

the drummer here is kind of stepping

27:57

out of Reggitt, what's

27:59

the drummer's name? He's like he's like Eric Tanner.

28:01

He's basically nailing it. He is killing

28:03

the game here and he steps out of Reggitt

28:05

a little bit to do, like, somewhere

28:07

in between rock and medium kind of build up.

28:09

It's it's, like, kind like,

28:12

given a lift to the whole thing that

28:14

just, like, puts you in the spot and

28:16

that's why you forget for one

28:18

minute that the lyrics are

28:20

so absolutely silly but then

28:22

you can't forget because you arrived at the corner.

28:24

Drumming on this song rules.

28:27

I was wrong about the guy's name. The guy's name is Alex

28:29

Thanos, but the drumming is so good that

28:31

I looked up the guy was like, man, who's your drummer?

28:33

And that's what I found out they kicked about at the

28:35

group. I was like, oh, man. That that

28:37

part of the song, I can really get behind. Not

28:39

the rest of it, but the drumming. And like, that's what

28:41

to the vague book post of the three of the others

28:43

of them, like, lying in lying in an open

28:46

field, saying, like, the future of magic. What?

28:49

Where's where's Alex guys? Yeah.

28:51

Alex got vaccinated. We can't have him in

28:53

the band. That's

28:59

absolutely what happened. A bad look. Oh,

29:03

Eric.

29:04

I gotta be so old.

29:07

Would you know me, man? this

29:30

this this is why it worked. This is why there

29:32

was -- Right. -- that's why there was a moment for this

29:34

song because you can listen to that

29:36

hook and just be like, this is catchy.

29:39

I puts me in my spot. You can have

29:41

this on at the party. Everybody's vibing

29:43

to it. That's why this song can happen.

29:46

The song is a bait shop.

29:50

meaning it's riddled with worms. Oops.

29:56

It also are worms exactly. It also

29:58

reminds me of but I never

30:00

sebashed in the crab song in

30:03

your little mermaid. Doesn't it have that is

30:05

is that the one thinking of? Kiss the girl.

30:08

He's the girl. There, girl. Is that the song more

30:10

like Yes. You want her. Is

30:12

that Sebastian the Grab, though? Yes. Sebastian.

30:14

I know that one. He's got two bangers in

30:17

that movie under the sea and kissed the

30:19

girl, really just Sebastian vehicles. Is Sebastian

30:21

a crab or is he a lobster? I

30:23

drew a little love tree, but he's so he's he's a

30:25

sweet little, cute little crab. Okay.

30:28

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Well, anyway, I don't

30:30

know why it reminded me of that for

30:32

some reason, you know? A big kind of

30:34

fun reggae vibe. Yeah. So good

30:36

call on the EDM thing because normally, EDM

30:38

is spam. Pam. Pam Pam Pam

30:40

Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam

30:43

Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam. And Mary Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam

30:45

Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam Pam

30:47

Pam Pam forty, but they're doing it in the

30:50

regave in the regave cinematic universe.

30:52

Yeah. They took few of those devices, stuck

30:54

it in here, it's absolutely -- Yeah. -- working

30:57

musically. Alright. Yeah. Alex, because he's

30:59

just crushing on this song. Yeah. Yes. But And

31:01

the break before the first chorus is always

31:03

a top forty move. Right. Right. formed.

31:06

Do I you go? Yep. And it's, like, a little double

31:08

it's basically two courses -- Oh.

31:11

-- half and, like, jumped together. You're right. There's,

31:14

like, two separate musical ideas happening in

31:16

the chorus. Why you gotta be so rude? And

31:18

we might even call this the, like, the post chorus,

31:20

but it it is still part of the hook, marry

31:22

her any way to marry that girl.

31:25

But and that all just distracts you

31:27

from the lyrical content, which is

31:30

imagine just step

31:32

it back two steps and imagine he poses

31:34

this question. Can I have a daughter for the

31:36

rest of my life? Oh, say yes. Say yes. Oh,

31:38

because I need to know, please, sir. Please.

31:41

Oh, say yes. And the guy's like, tough

31:43

luck, my friend. But the answer is

31:45

no. You've reached a pivotal moment

31:47

like you maybe that maybe the window is still

31:49

cracked even though he gave such a vicious no,

31:52

you know, over my dead body. What is

31:54

the response that could happen in that moment.

31:56

Thank you, sir. I will work for

31:58

the rest of my life to make sure that

32:00

we could have a relationship and I can

32:02

deserve to be in this favor.

32:04

Or I'll kill you. But instead,

32:07

what does he do in that pivotal

32:09

moment?

32:13

god. God.

32:15

Geez. Why why you gotta

32:18

be so rude. Stumps

32:24

off. And then just, you know, I gotta do it anyway.

32:27

I'm gonna bury her anyway. your

32:29

matter would you say, I'm gonna do it. Another

32:31

root thing, Boris, by the way. Yeah. On the fourth,

32:33

Boris. Nordstrom is root.

32:35

On your adjusted root scale, you

32:38

had Nasri at a six point five and the

32:40

dad of the two. Mhmm. After the chorus, when

32:42

he's just been told he can't marry the daughter and he's like,

32:45

haven't married anyway. Where's

32:47

your adjusted root scale for the dad and Nasri

32:49

Ethan? Nasri is his rank.

32:53

I'm putting this guy at, like, a nine point

32:56

eight to marry someone's daughter

32:58

right after they tell you no. and

33:01

not knew what Evan was saying, which is like the

33:03

least you can do, which is like, oh, you know what

33:05

then? Let me postpone this

33:07

marriage. for a week or two. I'm a

33:09

young man. Let me show you what I need

33:11

to do. Why don't I take you to the

33:13

local theme park and we

33:15

can have some fun okay? and we

33:17

can do the game with the water gun.

33:20

And I will win you over, sir. I will

33:22

show you. I'm a normal boy. But instead

33:24

to just go and, oh, we're just gonna get married.

33:27

Fuck you. I wanna burn this bridge.

33:30

You know what? I What he's doing is projecting.

33:33

because he's saying the dad is rude, but nothing

33:35

can be more router than what he's doing. Correct. Classic

33:37

classic songwriting problem. We see a lot of that

33:39

punch up the juice. NASA, I you are

33:41

doing a thing. I'm seeing it. NASA, I mean, the

33:43

song is revealing NASA to be rude, and the

33:46

amazing thing is that he himself has

33:48

said I mean, this he's never

33:50

been married. He has a long a long time

33:52

girlfriend who he met. You're talking about real life? real

33:55

life. Okay. He's a long who

33:57

he met. because he produced

33:59

songs for her. She's a German girl group

34:01

star. Okay. He'd never been married.

34:03

Maybe just because her dad said no. I'm not sure.

34:05

I don't know. By the way, research didn't go that deep.

34:08

But this song is based, he said,

34:10

on a previous relationship, not

34:13

unlike his Not

34:16

on any real interaction with a father.

34:18

Like, that's all made up. Mhmm. But

34:20

just basically he said, like, yeah, I was

34:22

an appointed relationship were just really rude

34:24

to each other all the time and fighting all the time.

34:26

That was my inspiration for this song. I was

34:28

like, wait. You're Like, you were

34:30

being rude all the time. So you wrote a song

34:32

about how someone else was being rude

34:34

to you. Yes. That's his hands.

34:37

That makes a lot of sense. That makes a ton of sense.

34:39

Yeah. As a major projection on his part

34:41

of who's who's being rude to

34:43

who.

34:46

Interlude with palate cleansing interlude

34:49

here. This Sick

35:07

harmonies, so I'm here for Okay.

35:17

Okay. Okay. In a lot of ways. I've

35:19

I have two things to say. First of

35:21

all, you always have a choice.

35:23

Even if one of the choices is

35:25

murdering him. It's not a choice

35:27

you should choose, but he's

35:30

you he's been left with a choice you could not marry

35:32

the daughter. Mhmm.

35:34

He could be too man satisfaction. action. But

35:36

all the other thing is, there's I think

35:38

there's a lot of nice stuff in this verse. This is what

35:40

he should've said when the door was opened. You

35:43

don't start by saying, like, hey, can I have your daughter's

35:45

hand while you're still at the threshold of the door? That's

35:47

right. That was first thing out of the mouth. Start

35:49

by saying, like, hey, I I can't

35:51

live without your daughter. I don't know if I have your

35:53

approval, but whether I get it or not, we're

35:55

going to the alter. Oh, that's

35:57

right. No. You don't wanna say that. you

35:59

know, so please so please give me your

36:01

permission because we're gonna do it regardless. Like,

36:04

that's better than just, like, being

36:06

so rude, dare I say it. Yeah.

36:08

But the what's problematic to me about

36:10

verse two is I agree about all of that stuff,

36:13

but then the main takeaway here is

36:15

it doesn't matter what you say, she's gonna go

36:17

wherever I go. She's gonna follow

36:19

me. Out. She'll follow me the fucking Outers.

36:21

Exactly. We're going to another galaxy to

36:24

go there right there. Boy, Yeah. We're

36:26

we're gonna be boys the only He's basically giving him

36:28

an ultimatum. And he's, like, either we're boys

36:30

or I'm running away with your with your daughter.

36:32

And, specifically, that trip is a suicide

36:34

mission. We know for sure. I see

36:36

you're not thirteen. You're not gonna get to another

36:39

galaxy and return, and you probably won't

36:41

get to another galaxy with alone.

36:43

And survive. You're you're somewhere between

36:45

Neptune and Pluto when your girlfriend

36:47

turns to you and is like, you asked

36:49

my dad before you asked me. Right?

36:52

Yeah. You you ask my airlock

36:54

is open. Uh-oh. Tell

36:56

them to fuel. I

36:59

gotta go out and fix something on the tail.

37:02

wipe of this stuff. Yeah.

37:05

It's the lead frozen and dead. But

37:09

yeah. I mean, it's it's pretty messed up.

37:11

It's anything I have that

37:13

much of a pull on your daughter.

37:16

I effed her so good. in

37:18

Last night at Baytonism two

37:20

or sandals, depending on one

37:22

or the other. One or the other? Definitely

37:24

inside resorts. You should follow me to the end of the Earth. Yep.

37:27

Yeah. And then and then, of course, putting

37:29

all of that aside musically. Very cool.

37:31

Obviously. Well, we got it in the night. Well, the song

37:34

the song itself rocks. Yeah. It's a hedonism

37:36

too a real thing. You keep talking about hedonism

37:39

too, like, it's a real thing. Is that It is that real?

37:41

It's just a place where adults can suck

37:43

and fuck and Yes. Singles through

37:46

singles. Singles through singles. I was sure you can't

37:48

say where adults can bring them in. not going to

37:50

the desert. Yeah. I guarantee it's,

37:52

like, almost all, like,

37:54

forty nine year old men with

37:56

certain expectations -- Absolutely. -- disappointed.

37:59

Yep. Yeah. and we don't

38:01

really see these two meeting up there. They wanna get

38:03

back to my tent. And

38:05

now it's time for a break from our sponsor, hedonism,

38:08

too, the resort where you can go.

38:11

Are you gross? Are you forty

38:13

nine in male? This

38:16

is kinda meta. But you

38:18

were you were talking about how your

38:20

wife knew you were going to

38:22

ask her dad -- Mhmm. --

38:24

to ask if you could ask

38:26

her to marry you -- Mhmm. --

38:29

like or Effectively, you asked your

38:31

girlfriend. Can I ask your dad

38:34

to ask him to marry you.

38:36

Mhmm. Like, does does this girlfriend back in bed?

38:38

She's still asleep, hungover from hedonism

38:40

too? Does she even know he's

38:42

asking her dad, like, really, in our

38:44

modern world, like, that should be part of the plan. You

38:47

kinda talk it through with your girlfriend, you say, like,

38:49

being being really serious. Eventually, I I wanna

38:51

propose and, like, wanna I'm gonna talk to your dad because

38:53

I know that's important to you. Is it important to you? It's

38:55

clear. Is it the score at the moment? She doesn't get the

38:57

sauce as they you're

39:00

gonna do whatever I say. So talking to

39:02

you about it is not important. I'm just gonna

39:04

go ahead and do my thing, and

39:06

you have to she wanted me to add

39:08

So I'm doing that for her. Yeah. She

39:10

probably just mentioned it, like, in between

39:12

bars. I don't

39:14

think she knows. Yeah. I don't think she even

39:17

knows he's asking you broke dad.

39:19

don't I don't even know if she's serious about

39:21

him. Yeah. Well, it doesn't like She doesn't

39:23

like him. Sky's classic, like, really intense

39:25

sort of man child syndrome. Like,

39:27

it has sort of some sort of, like, child above

39:30

energy. Mhmm. To it, where it's,

39:32

like, I'm such a man child above,

39:34

like, I'm so intensely in love

39:36

with you that, you know, it's like I don't wanna know

39:38

the flip side of it. You know, if they have a bad fight

39:41

or something like that, I don't wanna be anywhere

39:43

near you. He could get very rude. He could

39:45

yeah. He he could get rude. His nine point

39:47

seven on the root and the scale could get redirected

39:49

from the dad to the to the to the

39:52

Well, it's just not using common sense about,

39:54

like, our social norms and, you know, rules of

39:56

society. He's very much is, like, like,

39:58

like, no. You can't bring your

40:00

corgi into hot topic.

40:02

It's not because I don't like, Doug, like that's the rules

40:05

of the mall. You can't break me, sir. And

40:07

he's like, what? saying no. Why? Why you

40:09

gotta be so rude? might be rude

40:11

about my dog. But he's probably using

40:13

Shroom logic. Like, this guy -- Yeah. -- probably just

40:15

Shrooms every weekend, like, goes to weird islands,

40:17

and it's like, We're all just bags

40:20

of meat and electricity just roaming around

40:22

this planet. We have amnesia for eighty

40:24

nine years. We should do whatever we wanna

40:26

do. That's why I'm eatingism too. And you

40:28

know what? He's not wrong, but that's

40:30

not how we behave in society. He's not

40:32

wrong, but it's not a helpful it's

40:34

not a helpful guy principal for

40:36

your day to day life. Yeah. Even your even

40:39

your month to month life. Mhmm. You still you

40:41

can be a meat bag with manners. Right.

40:43

Yep. I guarantee you the woman

40:46

in this situation actually told him

40:48

at one point when he was trimmed out. III

40:51

don't I wanna take this really slow.

40:53

I'm not sure how I feel about you. I'm actually seeing

40:55

somebody else that I really like. No.

40:58

It's over. He said, no. We're getting married.

41:00

He's out. We're getting married tomorrow. I'm going to It's

41:02

over the long She's she's probably still seeing other

41:04

people, and he's like so dialed in. She's like,

41:06

I'm sorry. Last night when we were having sex, you called

41:08

me a meat bag. Okay.

41:13

Let me let me play this next pre chorus because it's

41:16

slightly different. I think there's a tweak here. Oh,

41:22

the harmonies, guys. He's gonna be so good.

41:24

Until the day die.

41:33

still no. It's still no. Now because

41:35

they'll tell us not because it wasn't a strict

41:37

repeat. They changed the one word.

41:39

That lets you know that, oh, he did actually

41:41

ask that every everything that was said

41:44

the second verse was still part of the same conversation.

41:46

really asked the question twice. He told him exclamation

41:49

point He really loves him, man. She's really gonna

41:51

run off to another galaxy, but we are going to be

41:53

standing up the alter second

41:55

chance. And the dad says

41:57

the answer is still no. You have not convinced

41:59

me in the last ten seconds. Napster just sounds great.

42:01

The army sound amazing. You wanna like I wanna hear

42:03

the demos. He was playing for Justin

42:05

Bieber in twenty ten. Mhmm. He wrote a lot of Justin

42:08

Bieber's early songs after

42:10

he ran into Justin Bieber and Scooter Braun in

42:12

a lobby. Like, this is a guy. What

42:14

what a great guy was sure. his shot.

42:17

He ran into them in a lobby. be. He met

42:19

Chris Brown in a basketball game,

42:21

a pickup basketball game, and both of them, he was

42:23

just like, hey, I'm a songwriter. Can I play you

42:25

my songs? And, like, The

42:27

next thing you know -- Wow. -- pretty bad ass. I mean, we're

42:30

not sitting on HotFire. He's used to

42:32

shooting a shot, but now you but you can't have the

42:34

same attitude when you're shooting your shot with

42:36

your girlfriend's dad. That's what I was gonna say.

42:38

Like, that mentality works about fifty percent

42:40

of the time. Mhmm. Like, in certain situations,

42:42

it's like, damn. This guy just

42:44

walked up to me at a corn dog stand and

42:47

Like, told me had that hot, hot, sweet fire,

42:49

and he was right. He played it for me in his car. And

42:51

next thing you know, we sold a million records.

42:53

But you know, asking

42:55

someone to marry with that same mentality is

42:58

not gonna order it in the corn dog guy. If you're asking

43:00

for, you know, a second corn dog on the house, you

43:02

know, really fiercely. It's like, well, I don't care who you are.

43:04

Hot Speedfire, please give me that corn dog. Right. I

43:06

don't care how good the song is. I'm giving you one corn

43:08

dog for the price of one corn dog. Check out this

43:10

be honest. And I have a free corn dog. Or just like,

43:12

I'm protecting you for your own sake. One

43:14

corn dog is enough of that. Exactly.

43:17

And as the because even as the corn dog, man, I know

43:19

that. Yeah. You Or these corn dogs are not good.

43:23

And I'm the corn dog vendor. You should not.

43:25

I know it's in these corn dogs, my friend. I mean,

43:27

you should take your hot fire elsewhere. last week. That's

43:29

what I was supposed to say. The dad

43:32

in this brief course is actually

43:34

being less rude. In the

43:36

first one he's saying over my dead

43:38

body, you're marrying my daughter. And then he

43:40

asks them again, he gives them all these explanation. The

43:42

dad goes, the answer is still no.

43:45

Go on. Collect. Yep. Straightforward.

43:48

Being a nice waspy fifty five year old man.

43:50

Yeah. He's he's killed. Oh, yeah. This guy You have

43:52

litigated your case. He wants to best for

43:54

his daughter. I like this guy. Yeah.

43:56

Because I want the best for my daughter. You

43:58

want the best for your daughter.

44:01

Don't you know, ma'am? Don't you know

44:03

I'm human.

44:03

Oh, wait. God, who not

44:06

me? This

44:08

is about me anyway. Hey.

44:12

anywhere or anywhere from here. I

44:15

ask you a very high stakes question. This is

44:17

about my feelings.

44:24

Okay. We've

44:24

got a little breakdown here. This

44:27

same interlude, and I think we're gonna a little guitar

44:29

solo. You know he's from the pop

44:31

writing world when you get a family

44:33

rammed as family. Family. Family will

44:35

be a MLA. You're like, this is a guy who's written fox

44:37

songs. Okay. This is the one musical thing about this

44:39

song I truly hate. The guitar solo slice.

44:42

Yeah. Listen to this. It's

44:46

fine. It's fine. The

44:49

fine for college radio. No.

44:52

talking about the positive. No.

44:55

That guitar solo's stunk in my opinion. Well,

44:57

yeah, quarter the melody too. So you have an

44:59

you have an opportunity to do something

45:02

Right. Yeah. I don't mind that as much

45:04

as the other stuff. There was like

45:06

four lines and the third line was

45:08

the melody. And then I feel like all the other ones are basically

45:10

him just being like, is the guitar on? Well, that's

45:12

the thing. It's, like, either do the melody, like,

45:15

just do it, like weezer style -- Right.

45:17

-- or don't meander. Yeah. And

45:19

it was something catchy too. Like, I can't sing you

45:21

back, that guitar. So I just heard it. No. I think

45:23

part of it was literally It's

45:25

the baby

45:26

like It's my string

45:28

in tune. It's like him checking. I'm watching

45:30

you every guns and roses

45:32

guitar solo, note for note. Yes.

45:35

Because they're all of the melody. Pure

45:37

melodies that stay on their own. Right? Like, I think

45:39

what it feels to me like they just did

45:41

the demo version that they forgot to go back and

45:43

do it. Like, they told -- Right. -- the guitar player

45:45

that he was gonna have thirty two bars

45:47

but then he only had four -- Mhmm. --

45:49

because it's up. And he was just warming up.

45:52

He was just stepping up to the mic going like,

45:54

okay. Let me get the let me get the fingers warmed And

45:57

that's why Because we're barely in the background.

45:59

Oh, I guess we're done. Yeah. Don't

46:01

don't you think that it's just like him, like, really

46:04

try trying to lean into an impression of

46:07

Reige and being like, what is

46:09

Reige? Yes. Reige at the time.

46:12

Reige. And now they do with the paw.

46:14

they do palm mutes. Right?

46:16

And they do short notes

46:18

rather because the the soul is over. But

46:20

that was was reggae. Right? He's

46:22

dead. Walmart. A lot of that guy, and he

46:24

doesn't. And guess what? As soon as the soul is over,

46:26

it gets back to the pre, and everyone's like, yeah.

46:28

Here we are. again. They love -- You're right. -- but yeah. They

46:30

just they just had to get out quickly. We're back

46:32

to the perimeter. I love it. I see it.

46:35

I'm kind of a country No. No. It's a break

46:37

recourse. They took the band out. There's the break

46:39

down part. That's of

46:41

my head. Nossed him.

46:43

means no. Has

46:50

there ever been another love song

46:52

between man

46:54

and his potential free man as part

46:56

of father-in-law. Is there any other

46:59

any other side? I give the Yeah.

47:03

many sun bothered love songs

47:05

are there? Cats Cradillers father son, not

47:07

father than lost son. Let's do it

47:10

close. Yeah. It's close. Something that's closer.

47:12

I mean, that's a rude dad. That I

47:15

think we all agree the cats cradle that is rude.

47:17

That's a rude dad. That's not a nice day. We're

47:19

just riding the repeat out here all the way to

47:21

the end. They

47:23

just had to get they just had to get back

47:25

to the course. There's another little break they break

47:27

it down on the pre chorus, take out the band, just

47:30

delete the bands for that sort of feelsy pre

47:32

chorus, and then you're just into a repeat of the hook,

47:34

dilute on the song. And then they use

47:36

the post chorus drumbeat over the

47:38

chorus. Yeah. Which I said Yes. Yeah.

47:40

That is what we call it. guess what's bothering

47:42

me now listening to it. Tell me if it bothers you guys.

47:44

It's really just

47:46

this moment. It's it's really not a story

47:49

song. Like, there's a story in the first

47:51

verse where it's like, I'm going to ask

47:53

this guy, here's my presentation,

47:56

he tells me no. From that point

47:58

on, The story is

48:01

over. It's really just that moment,

48:03

that conversation. It's just the one you

48:05

mean. And it's a repeat. Yeah. Like, it's a country

48:07

pop song with, like, straightforward story, you

48:09

would assume, like, oh, okay. But we're gonna find out

48:11

just wraps up -- Yeah. -- we're like, we're all set

48:13

to die. Yeah. Or you're rediff. They got

48:15

a rediff flight. I read that by -- France.

48:20

-- or you'd get a heartfelt father daughter says

48:22

I mean, they leave it in the country. I got a Atlanta

48:25

that's probably a Delta flight. It's probably

48:27

a Delta that's a Delta moment. So

48:29

we got Andrew started on the FAA,

48:31

but I didn't get one airport. Jesus

48:34

Christ. Look down. Yeah. It's like I feel like it's

48:36

missing a verse where the daughter and the

48:38

father have a moment, and she's like, I love

48:40

didn't get the dollar wrong. Where's the dollar

48:43

x? In the video, they tried to

48:45

add to this story by cutting away

48:47

to a different scene that's taking

48:49

place maybe contemporaneously or later or something

48:51

to paint the dad as worse. because in that other

48:53

scene, he invites over some other

48:57

man that we're definitely supposed to read

48:59

as being an annoying bully,

49:02

and the father has invited this other guy like,

49:04

I like this one. Bring this guy to

49:07

dinner. And Nasri shows up to interrupt the

49:09

dinner and run away with the daughter. The alopement

49:11

happens during that other sort of fix up That's

49:13

in the in the video. But in the song,

49:15

there's like like

49:17

Eric, you've spoken like directly

49:20

to the heart of what is the weirdest part about

49:22

the song, which is a song about nasty

49:24

being in love with the daughter, but it's just

49:26

him talking to the dad and the daughter

49:28

is just absent. Mhmm. He's been

49:30

handled this Yeah. We

49:33

have no evidence that the relationship is

49:36

good. It's amazing. If

49:38

anything, it's horrible. We don't know anything about COVID

49:40

is taking only a time for rolling. It's like

49:42

big, futile, dowry energy. Yeah.

49:45

It's like Okay. Can I have her for

49:47

a couple chickens? I have a sheep. No.

49:51

No. It still means no. You have a farm. Yeah. Like

49:53

Yeah. Our rig our acres are

49:56

adjacent -- Right. -- if they were

49:58

combined or if they could seal an even

50:00

larger field. Yeah.

50:03

Wake up magic exclamation point. Dude,

50:07

original. Dude, you're original.

50:10

We've reached the end of the song. We know

50:13

probably everything there is to know in the world

50:15

about the band because there is no there's

50:17

no record in music journalism that the band even

50:19

exists anymore. Yeah. Except we yeah. We don't know why

50:21

the drummer left. We don't know anything about their

50:24

third album because no one wrote a Wikipedia article.

50:26

It could be bothered to write a Wikipedia article. So

50:29

you're right. We we know everything we could No.

50:31

That is knowable. And we know and we've

50:33

we've talked song up and down. And

50:36

I think we figured out that NASA

50:38

is rooted in the dead. For sure.

50:40

It's pretty good at all. one. We knew that. I

50:42

think thousand percent, though. Yeah.

50:45

So I think Evan and I have enough

50:47

to go away. Ice cream you

50:49

scream. We all scream for coffee,

50:52

but not in a good way. It's because

50:54

in a lot of our our small towns, it's

50:56

really hard to find a good cup of coffee or or

50:58

or maybe there's really good cup of coffee in

51:00

your town. But now they're charging six dollars

51:03

for a cold brew. What's up with that?

51:05

So let me tell you about trade coffee.

51:08

It's a coffee subscription service unlike

51:10

anything you've tried before because instead of

51:12

just sending you something out of huge

51:14

faceless warehouse. They partner with top independent

51:17

roasters to freshly roast and send the

51:19

best coffees in the country directly to your

51:21

home on your preferred schedule. Their team of experts

51:23

does all the work. They taste hundreds of coffees

51:25

from across the US and they curate to four

51:27

hundred and fifty exceptional coffees.

51:30

Then you take a test to figure out which

51:32

coffees you match with and they send you the

51:34

ones that fit your taste. Their

51:36

team actually worked with me and Evan to create

51:38

our own custom collection, which is great for

51:40

us because we prefer a light

51:42

roast. So go check out our collection

51:45

at drink trade dot com slash

51:47

jam. And you'll also get thirty dollars off

51:49

51:53

alley, trade will have whatever it is you want.

51:55

51:57

roast or flavor profile, or you can take

51:59

their

51:59

coffee quiz and get x birtly matched

52:02

with the coffees you love. Trade is the easiest

52:04

way to get your very best tasting coffee delivered

this

52:37

hung up. Thanks to your guys incisive insights.

52:40

Okay. We're

52:42

back, Andrew. Let's talk about what we

52:44

did. There really was just so

52:46

many problems with the story of

52:49

the song. Right. First of all, not

52:51

enough story. you know,

52:53

we I mean, we're talking about

52:56

for unrelated reasons, I won't I won't mention

52:58

why, but we're talking about one of the greatest story

53:01

song is the twenty first century Earl had to die

53:03

during the episode. You know, every

53:05

every line in that song is moving the the

53:07

story along -- Mhmm. -- like the Woolsey

53:09

Glendale pointed out, this the story is pretty much

53:12

done once you get to the

53:14

first chorus of your mood. It's only a single moment.

53:16

You know, need to move this story along more.

53:18

And I think we we decided

53:20

to be more honest about who was being

53:23

rude here. Yeah. always such

53:25

a valuable punch up when you make a song more honest

53:27

about what's going on. Just just

53:29

get the truth out from let's be vulnerable with each

53:31

other. Let's tell the truth. Take

53:34

a listen. At

53:38

six AM.

53:42

slammed on me. Yeah. Let's be real. Did ninety

53:45

cross down and then

53:47

ninety nine.

53:49

Now down the door, then text

53:51

it and call to

53:53

get you out of it. Surprise

53:56

you, what up? because you're a little

53:58

bit more. I

58:08

saying this all out loud at the Montréal. Yeah.

58:11

Oh, Canadian goes I like this guy.

58:13

58:16

Yeah. Like, this guy came to Canadian Christmas,

58:18

and he took all the Tim Hortons

58:20

doughnut holes, but he didn't lie about it.

58:23

You're welcome here in Utah. I mean, Also,

58:26

the guy is signaling that he understands

58:28

he screwed up here. You know, he's saying

58:31

That's just such a major missed opportunity.

58:33

He's saying I'm gonna walk away from and

58:35

I'm gonna I'm gonna do some thinking. I don't

58:38

whenever I'm working on this -- Yeah. -- I

58:40

I don't I was talking to Evan that

58:43

Evan, I have fundamental disagreement about

58:45

honking. That I know Evan is right about honking

58:47

-- Interesting. -- honking in traffic. Yeah. And somehow

58:49

this came up we're working on this. Mhmm. Where

58:52

when I honk at someone in traffic, it's,

58:54

like, partially out of anger. Mhmm. But it's partially

58:57

out of, like, Hey,

58:59

man. Maybe the next time you're in that same situation,

59:01

you you should do something else, which

59:04

is like absolutely unreal. absolutely

59:06

impossible that that person's gonna be like,

59:09

that person honking at me and me had a pretty good

59:11

point. And the next time I'm merging, I'm gonna

59:13

do it a little differently. like Evan

59:15

is a hundred percent right. But in this

59:17

song, I was kinda like, this guy's getting honked

59:19

at and I wanted to be like my imaginary

59:22

fantasy driver who gets honked at, when I

59:24

honk at them, who's just like, I

59:26

did merge improperly. I'm gonna

59:29

do that better next time. Yep.

59:31

That that should have been his reaction. Like, this

59:33

song is which this is, like,

59:35

idealistic, which is beautiful. Right.

59:38

This guy going, Tim, that's

59:40

you you really analyze me really quick

59:42

and I gotta take a look in the mirror

59:44

and see what's going on with me. I respect

59:47

you. Yeah. I mean, even though the girlfriend

59:49

has moved on, I feel like if he

59:52

really does that soul searching, I

59:54

feel like he And the dad could still have

59:56

a beautiful friendship, maybe like a mentorship. I

59:59

mean, the dad lives in a really nice house as we've

1:00:01

seen. Maybe he could be Good job

1:00:03

with them. In this version, the family has

1:00:05

a chance to heal. Oh. The original

1:00:07

version is just a rift. It's

1:00:10

a strangement forever. when

in the light brown tiles, the

1:01:23

eighties part, and I'm turning left

1:01:26

into the computer lab. this

1:01:28

song drops. I

1:01:30

1:04:25

FBI sniper on a roof across the street. Wow.

1:04:27

So whatever you're gonna be hard to win. Did the cop

1:04:29

know he was there? Is it one of those situations where the

1:04:32

get off my turf? This was my case. Is it one

1:04:34

of those situations or were they cooperating? That's

1:04:36

correct. They didn't communicate properly, and

1:04:38

the cop and the alley thought he was gonna make a

1:04:40

a huge a huge sale. Does FBI

1:04:43

agent also shoot the cop because he doesn't know

1:04:46

the cop is undercover? Yeah. It was a massacre.

1:04:48

Yeah. Wow. Yeah. One of them was FBI,

1:04:50

one of them was CIA. and they weren't

1:04:52

aware that each other were working on the case. Had

1:04:54

not been communicating properly, which happened

1:04:57

so many times in long history. The h coming

1:04:59

from across the border so the CIA is involved.

1:05:01

Yeah. That's correct. Yes. And this is on Redhook,

1:05:05

Brooklyn done by the docks. right now

1:05:07

so they can bring it in by boat. Sure. Yeah. That's

1:05:09

a customs issue too. And so

1:05:11

our character, the the lone wolf,

1:05:13

if you will, gets

1:05:15

just riddled with bullets. And

1:05:18

and as he perishes in

1:05:20

the undercover in

1:05:23

the undercover man's torso

1:05:25

and we we hear this beautiful

1:05:28

song. It's

1:05:33

kind of a JFK situation where the sniper

1:05:35

shoots one bullet. What's your boy?

1:05:37

Your wolf is riddled with bullets. Yeah. It can go

1:05:39

with me now. What are these riddles? where bullets

1:05:41

sound like he just got shot. Oh. Oh. Just

1:05:45

die. Most

1:05:50

of them. All the more pointy

1:05:52

because the cop is dying too. You got the CIA.

1:05:54

I love a literal walk in song that's

1:05:56

just it's about dying and you're dying.

1:05:58

Yeah. And it was

1:06:00

something he said because he accidentally said

1:06:02

the code word that the spay was waiting

1:06:04

for, which was that was it. Yeah.

1:06:07

Must've been something you said, which was

1:06:09

shoot him. Shit. Quad twist. The

1:06:11

Ford Authority cops show up because

1:06:14

you're in Redhook, but but

1:06:16

these their moved up. The port authority

1:06:18

cops, they wrapped they wrapped the CIA guy

1:06:20

in FBI. They're by our side, and James

1:06:22

just dropped him in the river. Oh, with a million

1:06:24

cops. No paper no paper record

1:06:27

that this ever even -- Every bureau is present. --

1:06:29

this story. All the cops are

1:06:31

shooting each other. Yeah. Yeah.

1:06:33

This song is so good. I just died in your arms

1:06:35

tonight by cutting crew.

1:06:37

I never could have guessed it. Would never have guessed

1:06:39

the name, Amanda, cutting crew. But what's the

1:06:42

eighty's beat kicks in a big beefy snare.

1:06:44

It got it actually makes it a little bit romantic

1:06:46

and I feel like maybe you're dying and also

1:06:48

maybe he like plants one on you just

1:06:51

Yeah. Yeah. You know, they have a lot of

1:06:53

real cats. They're they're both gone. Both on

1:06:55

their way out, so they say, this is all we got left.

1:06:57

Let's let's make out. Let's

1:06:59

let's see what happens. Yeah. Yeah.

1:07:02

You wanna go out with little bit of tongue.

1:07:04

Yeah. Absolutely. You

1:07:07

should've walked away from the deal. Should've walked

1:07:10

away from the deal. Yes. He's his own.

1:07:12

That did well, the guy was a little sketch. He should've

1:07:14

walked away from his age elsewhere like this, but

1:07:16

he needed the money to put his kid through college.

1:07:18

Go out. Thank you for this. This is a

1:07:21

brilliantly literal take on this song.

1:07:23

I appreciate it so much. Thank you. You're winning

1:07:25

a crown. I guess we are brilliant. You

1:07:29

know, always always risky to

1:07:31

be dealing your age within a a mile

1:07:33

radius of the Tesla dealership, though.

1:07:35

The cops are always trying to the area around the Tesla

1:07:37

dealership there in Redhook Clean, you

1:07:39

know. Yeah. Yeah. Keep it long and tight. They

1:07:41

know which side of their pocket the bread is butter

1:07:44

on. That's a lot of payola down there. I

1:07:46

I don't know if we've had a walking scenario ending

1:07:49

death before. Really, had anyone die?

1:07:51

I don't know. Oh, we've had some I think we had a few

1:07:53

deaths. Yeah. We had a few deaths. People love to People

1:07:55

want to soundtrack their own deaths for sure.

1:07:58

People love death. Maybe they didn't die. Maybe
