I'm ready for it. So first of all, corner.

SPEAKER_02:

That's that's going pretty well.

SPEAKER_00:

Uh huh, the jingles. I I think that you have really missed your calling.

SPEAKER_02:

Really? And jingle writing. Jingle writer.

SPEAKER_00:

Tragic jingle writing.

SPEAKER_02:

I w I wish I think I would have what I would have really done quite well at is maybe like a theme song, like an 80s theme songwriter. Like I think we need to probably cover Gummy Bears at one point. And I think we need to cover different strokes. Different strokes.

SPEAKER_00:

Is that with Bauke? No, that's perfect strangers.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Uh Different Strokes says Arnold. Willis. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Father of Robin Thick. Uh, of of in the thick of the night fame. Whoa. It's a Canadian uh late night show that he was on. Wow.

SPEAKER_00:

Robin Thick?

SPEAKER_02:

No, no, no. Heavens no.

SPEAKER_00:

Heavens be.

SPEAKER_02:

Alan Thick. Alan Thick. This is, I think, before Growing Pain.

SPEAKER_00:

I was gonna say, ride the TV.

SPEAKER_02:

I didn't watch a lot of Canadian TV at the time. I was like seven. I wasn't.

SPEAKER_00:

Were you aware of Canada at seven years old? I was aware.

SPEAKER_02:

Canada was on my radar.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, what year did what year did Hatchet come out? So I probably was.

SPEAKER_02:

This is like the second time Hatchet's come up on this podcast. We need to talk about Hatchet.

SPEAKER_00:

We should read Hatchet.

SPEAKER_02:

After we talk about, of course, The Dollhouse.

SPEAKER_00:

The Dollhouse Murders. Stay tuned. Exciting podcast head. I have it. I need to read it. We should do it next week.

SPEAKER_02:

SPEAKER_00:

Okay, we'll see who wins.

SPEAKER_02:

I think we'll both be winners.

SPEAKER_00:

I feel like we're gonna need to like have a list of things we can't say for that episode. Like words that we don't use anymore. No.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, that. Yeah, like PC. Uh yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

We're gonna need to clean it up for 2025.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, we'll have to figure that out. That's um It's coming down the line. Well, that's something that I, you know, I want to talk about another another piece.

SPEAKER_00:

Is this the favorite?

SPEAKER_02:

Isn't that kind of fun? Uh I thought about the, you know, I was trying to think. I got back to the jingle talk. That that chord progression. What what is that? So E, C sharp minor, A, B.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, what is that? I mean, that's a 1, 6, 4, 5.

SPEAKER_02:

That's what I'm looking for right there. There you go. And all those do all those belongs?

SPEAKER_00:

All those 50 do wop six.

SPEAKER_02:

B doesn't belong in that though, and they uh, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

That's how you get back to E.

SPEAKER_02:

Whoa.

SPEAKER_00:

That's the five.

SPEAKER_02:

That's the five?

SPEAKER_00:

B is the five.

SPEAKER_02:

But that's not a five of five.

SPEAKER_00:

No, no. It would be an F sharp.

SPEAKER_02:

If I were to claim that it was a five of five, I that'd be like I didn't learn anything about it.

SPEAKER_00:

The credibility of your podcast will just be in the toilet.

SPEAKER_02:

No, but it's like my favorite chord progression. Uh Octopus's Garden.

SPEAKER_00:

I just thought of something else we could talk about.

SPEAKER_02:

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00:

It has to do with hot drinks. Remind me about later.

SPEAKER_02:

Like off-air?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay. Thanks for coming.

SPEAKER_02:

Tell me about hot drinks. You promised. No, no, no. So yeah, I wanted to do something in that, but we don't have to do it in that. And then I uh I thought about uh it was kind of inspired a little bit by The Last Kiss.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

And also, like, you know, sad movies where somebody dies and they always kiss.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, that made me think of Leader of the Pack.

SPEAKER_02:

They kiss the dead person. Yeah. But they're just, they're still they're still warm.

SPEAKER_00:

And that's how you know the audience won't be.

SPEAKER_02:

Just kiss.

SPEAKER_00:

The audience won't like it. Definitely be some members of the audience that won't want to hear about kissing recently dead bodies.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, and quite quite honestly, I'm not a doctor. You might not have even been dead. You might have just might have just I'm still alive right now. You're still yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

So I'm still talking.

SPEAKER_02:

It's honestly like almost kind of happy.

SPEAKER_00:

Mm-hmm. It's happy how it turns out.

SPEAKER_02:

It was just a dream.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

It's like was that Dallas?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh my goodness. I've never even seen it. The only reason I know is because I think Family Guy did a spoof up.

SPEAKER_02:

And uh and just try to fall into the eighty. Ooh.

SPEAKER_00:

Who cares?

SPEAKER_02:

I want to say late 70s. Who cares? I don't know. I don't care. I don't care that much. Patrick Duffy.

SPEAKER_00:

Is he still with us?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I think.

SPEAKER_00:

Was he on um Step by Step?

SPEAKER_02:

Yes. Yeah, sure was. T G I Fy Step with uh Sasha Brandon Call and uh Sasha Mitchell.

SPEAKER_00:

So are we still working our way towards the favorites corner?

SPEAKER_02:

Oh the favorites corner. Oh, what I'm listening to? Is that what we were talking about?

SPEAKER_00:

Well, we were talking about a couple things we were gonna add. Sprinkling into the new, we were adding jingle.

SPEAKER_02:

We're sprinkling. We got a jingle. We're working on it.

SPEAKER_00:

And then favorites corner.

SPEAKER_02:

Is that our jingle, or are we gonna keep working on that?

SPEAKER_00:

I I would like to. If there could be a word that rhymes with room, it's not microphone.

SPEAKER_02:

Not womb. No. Is there a way to work that in? That's kind of nice. Biggie Smalls uses that word quite um God rest his soul.

SPEAKER_00:

His womb. He was womless. Poor guy.

SPEAKER_02:

That's what killed him. Lack of a womb.

SPEAKER_00:

That's what's gonna kill all the men, I think eventually.

SPEAKER_02:

Can Biggie be in our show?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh yeah. What's he gonna ride in on? He's gonna need like a hippopotamus.

SPEAKER_02:

Why?

SPEAKER_00:

He's big.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, just to support his frame. Yeah. What about like um I mean, because Gordon Gordon Lightfoot is riding in on a giant rooster? Can it just be a giant something else?

SPEAKER_00:

That's true. Well, he was specifically writing in on the giant rooster from Robin Hood.

SPEAKER_02:

You know what it'd be cool?

SPEAKER_00:

It wasn't just any random rooster.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, that's true.

SPEAKER_00:

But what what do you think would be cool?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh the caterpillar from first of all, do you say caterpillar or caterpillar?

SPEAKER_00:

I say caterpillar.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay. I'm gonna say caterpillar. Caterpillar from uh from Alice in Wonderland.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Hitting a hookah.

SPEAKER_00:

You think Biggie's gonna ride out?

SPEAKER_02:

They'll both be coming in, they'll just come in through a big cloud smoke.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay. Cloud smoke.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. I think that's fine.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Um cool.

SPEAKER_00:

What's Ingrid Michelson gonna ride in on though?

SPEAKER_02:

She's not dead.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh. But neither is Oh, that's true.

SPEAKER_02:

Do we have rules for our show?

SPEAKER_00:

No, just some of them are.

SPEAKER_02:

Only dead people some live people are we're allowed.

SPEAKER_00:

We're allowed there in the show.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Are we in the we playing with them?

SPEAKER_00:

But we just kind of remember we were bringing our guitar just in case. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's what this is. This is a show about uh two, you know, two people that are standing next to each other, they don't know each other. They might be married, but they might be strangers.

SPEAKER_00:

Mm-hmm. In the night.

SPEAKER_02:

Can we be married strangers? Like a like a fixed, like a fixed wedding?

SPEAKER_00:

Pre-arranged.

SPEAKER_02:

Prearranged.

SPEAKER_00:

Betrothed.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, so it's it's two people, they're betrothed, they're waiting for they're waiting for a show.

SPEAKER_00:

They might be from a different. One of them has a guitar.

SPEAKER_02:

One of them has a guitar. He's the kind of guy who brings a guitar to a somebody else's concert. That's definitely the guy. That's the only line.

SPEAKER_00:

The only way I would ever marry someone like that would be have to be through an arranged marriage.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Someone who brings their guitar to a concert.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Well, congratulations. I'm your man.

SPEAKER_00:

So, but one but one thing, are we gonna talk about our favorites corner?

SPEAKER_02:

What is the favorites corner in your own?

SPEAKER_00:

You said like we were gonna talk about what we were listening to or reading or watching. I think I stole that from like every other podcast that has a favorites corner.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay, but um Do you have a different name for it? Um what I'm what I'm consuming. Hmm. Uh uh media consumption of the week.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

That's well, I'll start a fun little I'll start because I actually have something to say. Oh, you do?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh. In in typical uh fashion of our marriage, Rob has a trillion ideas and my brain is making cricket noises most of the time. But I do have an idea. Not true for what I've I'm actually reading, rereading Howell's Movie Castle. And I forgot how delightful it is, and you should really listen to it. Um reading it's great, but listening to it's pretty fun because you've listened to it as well. The first time I read it to it, I listened.

SPEAKER_02:

Wesley's a reader, she reads it like six thousand words per minute, something like that.

SPEAKER_00:

But give or take.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, like seriously, she's one of those people you you watch her reading a book and she's like, Oh, hang on, I have to read four more chapters, I'll be four seconds. She's just like looking at it and turning the pages.

SPEAKER_00:

It's a gift.

SPEAKER_02:

Exaggerating slightly, but only slightly.

SPEAKER_00:

I mean when I was in elementary school, I did teachers did not believe that I would be finished with things until I proved it with a comprehension test. Anyway, Hal's movie castles delightful stupid face. It's incredibly lighthearted and wonderful, but has has quirky little things that keep coming back around, and you're like, oh yeah, that was clever. It has some clever little twists and turns and it's fun.

SPEAKER_02:

You said it's like really light. Yeah. It's not light. You're not crying.

SPEAKER_00:

No, no, no. It's funny and goofy. It's it's really good. And then we re reason I'm rereading it is because our daughter recently found out or discovered that there are two companion novels. So we are both rereading. She's done with the second one. I don't know if she started the third one or not, but I'm rereading the first one so that I can then join her at the second one. So by companion novels, are they like little like they take place in the same universe and they feature, I believe that Were we talking about this when we brought up Fallout? I don't know.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh never mind, continue.

SPEAKER_00:

But they these particular ones they feature the original characters from the first book, but the story is not about them. It's about new characters. So it's not really a sequel to the original storyline. It just I think that they might go they interact with the original characters, but I don't haven't read it yet, so anyway.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, that's kind of like this book that I'm the series that I'm listening to, which is the first law series by Joe Abercrombie. I'm coming up on the sixth book.

SPEAKER_00:

I just ordered some of his clothes. On clearance, don't get excited.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, yeah, by Joe Abercrombie and Fitch. And uh that's uh it is not easygoing. It is a pretty gritty, uh Grimdark is the genre. It's kind of like like no one's really good. No one's exactly all the way good, no one's exactly all the way bad.

SPEAKER_00:

Kind of like Game of Thrones.

SPEAKER_02:

Lots, it's very it's very, very much like Game of Thrones.

SPEAKER_00:

Um is it fantasy though, or is it it's fantasy.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, okay. It's it's fantasy, but it's like uh it's just really gritty fan fantasy. Like there's fantasy in it, but it's not that's not like the point. Yeah, it's uh it's hard, it's hard to explain. I I wasn't gonna talk about it.

SPEAKER_00:

The law.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh the first law. The first law. Well, so the it's a trilogy and then three standalone books. There's a novella in there somewhere, and then there's a second trilogy.

SPEAKER_03:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

I'm almost done with a third standalone book post-ball trilogy. I'm coming up on the sixth. But they're all kind of it's a it's a kind of book. Well, I say standalone, but you really need to know kind of the the interplay between all the characters because they'll mention them. Like you can read them standalone. Continuing lore. Chronological and yeah, lots of different characters. Great series. Uh I wouldn't listen to it if you don't like uh the C word. They use it a lot. Okay. Very uh very British British. Kitten start with a C Who's writing in on that?

SPEAKER_00:

Michaelson can write in on it. It's pretty rough.

SPEAKER_02:

It's a pretty rough book. Lots of fantastic violence and uh would I like it? You might. You might get a little worn out. It might kind of tear you down. It's very well written, extremely entertaining.

SPEAKER_00:

How I do sometimes.

SPEAKER_02:

Yes, totally.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. In fact, even me, I'm like, I gotta listen to the couple like rewatchables podcasts or some vid, you know, I like New Game Plus a lot. Uh it's like these guys that just play. Howls Moving Castle, perhaps.

SPEAKER_00:

Her first name is Diane. I can't remember her the author's last name, but it's incredibly popular, has a huge cult following. You can find it.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, musically, though, what I listened to yesterday to kind of lift my spirits a little bit, was when I was burning uh just a massive fire. I burned a couch. Can I say this is legal, right?

SPEAKER_00:

Are there laws against burning couches?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh as our firefighter neighbor said, who came over, he said it's only a problem if it's a problem. He's like, and then I get 15 bucks to put it out. So go ahead.

SPEAKER_00:

Did we ever pay him for getting the cat out of the tree? Our fireman neighbor legitimately got our cat out of the tree. That's the real thing that happened.

SPEAKER_03:

It's true.

SPEAKER_00:

And our state trooper neighbor, and they've both done a really good job of raising us.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. We love you, my two dads. It's another great uh sitcom. Is that late 80s, early 90s? I don't know. Anyways, but uh what's her face was in Step by Step. Dana I think is that the character name or the actress's name?

SPEAKER_00:

What are you talking about?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh the step by step, the girl who was in My Two Dads was also in Step by Step.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Had nothing to do with our two dads. I don't know any of the real names. Do you think maybe they have a little something? I'm just kidding.

SPEAKER_00:

Definitely don't. I promise you, I could promise you that.

SPEAKER_02:

I'd get shot.

SPEAKER_00:

Even if they did, they would have buried that way down deep. Way deep.

SPEAKER_02:

Very deep. Very deep.

SPEAKER_00:

Love you both.

SPEAKER_02:

Very deep. Um so yeah, I burned a couch. I burned a giant chair.

SPEAKER_00:

What were you listening to?

SPEAKER_02:

Ottoman. What was the soundtrack of your fire? Um I was listening to Ready?

SPEAKER_03:

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02:

Only built for Cuban links by Raquan the shelf chef. The shelf.

SPEAKER_00:

I mean, all the words that you just said, shelf.

SPEAKER_02:

Only built for Cuban links. Only built.

SPEAKER_00:

What's a Cuban link?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh it's like a chain.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, like a big old gold chain?

SPEAKER_02:

Four, the number.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

SPEAKER_02:

Swords?

SPEAKER_00:

Why can't you pronounce things?

SPEAKER_02:

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Followed by No Skips, of course.

SPEAKER_00:

Of course.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh, followed by uh Return to the 36 Chambers, Dirty Version.

SPEAKER_00:

And that did all of that lift your spirits?

SPEAKER_02:

ODB. Old Dirty Bastard. Rest in peace. He could also be in our show. He's gonna come in on. He's going to uh he's gonna be sharing a trash can with Oscar the Grouch. They're gonna roll in together. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Could they have like I feel like they need like big hydraulic doom doom like their cars bouncing, their track trash can is bouncing.

SPEAKER_02:

I don't think ODB's he's I don't think he has an organization to even get in a car like that. Um he is uh Is that what killed him?

SPEAKER_00:

It's disorganization.

SPEAKER_02:

What did how did he die? You know, I don't know how he died.

SPEAKER_00:

I don't either.

SPEAKER_02:

He had uh many he was survived by many, many children and many women who birthed those children.

SPEAKER_00:

He was survived by those women.

SPEAKER_02:

Well I listened to Well don't what don't you want to know anything about those?

SPEAKER_00:

Why it works I mean I can I guess I I'm I've got the curse of knowledge.

SPEAKER_02:

What do you what what not to put you on the spot here, but what do you know about all that? Is there is there a common thread? There's a very obvious answer here that if you know, you know.

SPEAKER_00:

If you don't know I don't know, but it's not is it not all rap? Well, yeah, it's all rap. Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

It's all rap. It's boom bap rap.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, that's right.

SPEAKER_02:

It's from uh it's uh Staten Island, born and raised. There's a commonality that all three of those people have. They are solo artists from an offshoot of a world-renowned hip-hop group. Do you know the group?

SPEAKER_00:

Is it NWA?

SPEAKER_02:

It's not no, it's not.

SPEAKER_00:

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it's the black-eyed peas.

SPEAKER_00:

Who is it?

SPEAKER_02:

It's Wu-Tang clan.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, that's what I was gonna say first. Well, all I could picture was the logo for that clan.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, yeah. Yeah, kinda, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, we used to do a haunted house at the city pool in the fall when the pool was closed and use the locker rooms for the scary part. And I think a person that we both know instead of doing what anything that they were supposed to be doing, they were just spray painting that all over the um black tarps and glow in the dark.

SPEAKER_02:

Spray painting Wu-Tang clean. So I mean it seems like a pretty good use of time. I guess so. It's not the worst thing you could do. Um, no, the reason for it is is So I like I like all three of those albums. I didn't used to. Uh you know, I we'll we'll do at least a Cuban Lynx Liquid Swords episode.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, okay. Where it was like a song?

SPEAKER_02:

So they're like could kind of considered to be like the top two. So so there's nine members of the Wu-Tang clan. Uh unless you include like the affiliates. Like there's like these extra guys. The black-eyed peas and yeah, like the black-eyed peas and WA. They kind of kind of come out. W W F uh the Caterpillar from uh Wonderland.

SPEAKER_00:

Uh oh, are we getting a little East Coast, West Coast here?

SPEAKER_02:

Well, this so so Wu-Tang's very much East Coast. I didn't I I've always liked the Wu-Tang clan. I've never loved them. Like I I listened to a ton of hip hop in high school, but it in hindsight, it was mainly it was mainly West Coast stuff. So in WA. Black Eyed Peas, I think. I'm not even gonna make a guess on that. Well, I am wasn't legit, like I think he was, I think he might have been considered a gangster rapper at one point. At least he used to write a lot of he kind of went, uh he sold out, but uh, I worked out for him just fine. I'm not I'm not hating on him. But, anyways, uh Staten Island, they're very much East Coast, 36 Chambers was like their big debut album. Super raw, super rough, nine members in 1995, Cuban Lynx. Can I help you?

SPEAKER_00:

Can you keep going? Get to the Fine, we don't care.

SPEAKER_02:

Get to the connection, I think. You don't care at all. You really don't care at all.

SPEAKER_00:

It's the connection between the three albums.

SPEAKER_02:

They're like so the so liquid swords are in and Cuban links. If you go on any forum or top ten list or whatever, they're always near the top of like the best.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh no, something went down. It's all good.

SPEAKER_02:

It's all good. It's just a like it's just a telling us that our virus definitions are up to date.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, okay, good. Anyway, 1995. So don't try to attack our computer. Now you know we're legit. Swords.

SPEAKER_02:

Liquid swords? What about it? Well, you were in the middle of saying that they're at the top of a I've listened to them several times, and I but I want to say, okay, which one do I like the best? Like not that it matters. I mean, just listen to what you like to listen to, but um But don't tell Rob what it is. What's that supposed to mean?

SPEAKER_00:

You're a little highbrow on the music.

SPEAKER_02:

Am I?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Because I don't really feel like I know anything. Um I I like to I enjoy music. And I do I do get a little a little a little bit of there's not a lot of things I get wrapped up in the statistics on in my life. I'm not very terribly detail oriented. Is that true?

SPEAKER_00:

You know, I used to think a lot of things about you that I'm not sure I think anymore, and that might be one of them.

SPEAKER_02:

That I am detail-oriented?

SPEAKER_00:

Uh if it serves you, you're overly detailed oriented.

SPEAKER_02:

That's true. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I care about it.

SPEAKER_00:

But if you're trying to wash all the dirty dishes. You literally left one done, one undone. Every time you do the dishes, there is one dish sitting next to the sink. It's not even far away that you don't wash.

SPEAKER_02:

But it's always a weird dish.

SPEAKER_00:

It is. But it's always a dirty one.

SPEAKER_02:

But uh if we could just not have weird dishes in our house, we could solve this problem.

SPEAKER_00:

Dishes into our our plate, I wouldn't leave it. For the day.

SPEAKER_02:

It's always a one of the I'll tell you what it is.

SPEAKER_00:

It's always one of my water bottles.

SPEAKER_02:

It's a water bottle, and there's there's water bottles in the house. Some are not supposed to be washed in the dishwasher.

SPEAKER_00:

None of them can be.

SPEAKER_02:

Some I'm still drinking out of, says whoever it it is. Others others could be washed. I never know which one. So I always think if I can drink out of my water bottle every day for a year without without washing it, then somebody else can go a day.

SPEAKER_00:

That's why you don't need a flu shot. Your water bottle is nature's flu shot.

SPEAKER_02:

I just drink grime. You would not like you might you might you I would say on those three albums, you would tolerate Liquid Swords. I'd say you might like a couple out a couple songs from Only Bill for Cuban links. You would not like ODB.

SPEAKER_00:

I already know.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh we'll just have to make different episodes. There's too much to talk about there. I don't even want to start.

SPEAKER_00:

Um any more than you already did, though.

unknown:

Anymore.

SPEAKER_02:

It's what I'm listening to. I gotta say something. I can't just list stuff. You gotta say something.

SPEAKER_00:

I can't. I'm listing cake, and no doubt I'm listening to those albums, several of their two of their albums uh each back and forth a lot lately.

SPEAKER_02:

Which which ones?

SPEAKER_00:

Uh Comforting Go to Heaven.

SPEAKER_02:

Is that good?

SPEAKER_00:

Cheap go to heaven. That one.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

And then I both uh uh Tragic Kingdom and Return to Saturn of the No Doubt.

SPEAKER_02:

Cool. I don't know uh I don't know No Doubt too well. I know 'em okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Their the Return to Saturn I feel like was their last like truly good one.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, original to their sound. No skips.

SPEAKER_00:

No skips. I don't know. Back in the days of CDs, you just knew you knew every song as it related to the song before. So like you could find the next key because you just listened to it so many times.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

It's weird.

SPEAKER_02:

You almost kind of develop uh what do you call it? Perfect pitch? Yeah. Like album specific perfect pitch.

SPEAKER_00:

It would be relative pitch.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00:

Because you'd be finding your pitch relative to the perfect relativity.

SPEAKER_02:

Is that a thing?

SPEAKER_00:

I just think that'd be perfection. All right, Rob, talk to us about dishes that you gotta hand wash, like crock pots.

SPEAKER_02:

Crock pots? We got a crock pot. We have two crock pots.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, one of them's a really a really meaningful crock pot.

SPEAKER_02:

What is it called again? What'd you call it?

SPEAKER_00:

One of them is a really meaningful crock pot.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, crock pot. Got it. It's a slow cooker. Same thing, right?

SPEAKER_00:

Do you know why it's meaningful? Um This is a test.

SPEAKER_02:

We I think Haroline was born in it. We had a crock pot birth. It's natural. Just get the water warm. Not hot. Not just turn it on high. Low for 10 hours. Not low, warm.

SPEAKER_00:

Warm.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Indefinitely. No, that is actually not why.

SPEAKER_02:

Is that uh was that a uh wedding registration?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_02:

Was that oh, did I give it to you for your birthday?

SPEAKER_00:

You got it for me for I think like a dating anniversary. Because you gave it to me when I l when I was a senior at OU and you were uh an October 10th anniversary?

SPEAKER_02:

Is that what it was?

SPEAKER_00:

Is that when we went on the movie date?

SPEAKER_02:

I think so. Red Dragon?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. 1010.

SPEAKER_02:

Was it Red Dragon and then Jackass the movie? Was that our second date?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. But several years, three years after that.

SPEAKER_02:

I made you watch Dolomite and Pink Flamingos, all sorts of great movies. You were 10 alive.

SPEAKER_00:

I was. That's how you knew. Anyway, Rob gifted me with a crock pot when I was a senior in college. And we still have it, and I used it the other night at the home football game.

SPEAKER_02:

And every time I see it, I think about it.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, obviously. Every time he sees it, he thinks about having another baby in a crock pot.

SPEAKER_02:

Not like eating it.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, what do we have for dinner?

SPEAKER_02:

That date uh crock pot uh baby.

SPEAKER_00:

Date anniversary. Anniversary. Anniversary crock pot.

SPEAKER_02:

Anniversary crockpot.

SPEAKER_00:

All right.

SPEAKER_02:

So yeah, crock pots are what I wanted to talk about today. Exciting.

SPEAKER_00:

Very.

SPEAKER_02:

Here's why. How do I how do I start into this? Let me just say I think a neat thing.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, go ahead.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, I was gonna say, you know, I I get a lot, I used to be a pro I was a personal trainer for I'd say seven years practicing, all told, three years full time. Um COVID kind of turned it upside down, and I got back into IT, etc. etc. But one of the biggest questions you get, you know, the goals that everybody has in common are body composition goals. And I think I'd always have to Help people with is how important diet is, and how important is that you know what you're eating, and how important it is that you make your own meals, unless you're just uber loaded and can hire a chef to do it or something like that, yeah. Which is no one I know. Um, well, no one who's paying me. So uh that being said, just for my own sake, it's not that I would tell everybody go buy a crock pot. Although I am telling you go buy a crock pot.

SPEAKER_00:

Very, very affordable.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. And pretty much everything tastes good. You don't really have to know much about anything at all. You just throw it in.

SPEAKER_00:

I mean, you are the proof of that.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I don't know. I proof of content. What what did I knew what did I know how to cook when we met?

SPEAKER_00:

When we met?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Nothing.

SPEAKER_02:

Nothing. Right? I mean, pasta anytime? Does that count?

SPEAKER_00:

Does that count?

SPEAKER_02:

What about the fried chicken that was after we met? Fry daddy. Oh, that's true.

SPEAKER_00:

Like when you were living in River Park, the only thing I ever saw you eat was Foreman grill.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, yep, that was turkey burgers. The Foreman grill. Turkey burgers, I just eat tripled turkey burgers. I just eat turkey burgers and then tho probably thousands of junior bacons at Wendy's.

SPEAKER_00:

A lot of spoonfuls of creatine. Yeah. You were way ahead of your time on that. Creatine is a hugely popular thing right now.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, it's uh it's it's it's one of the most tested supplements. That I remember the time I was getting bit.

SPEAKER_00:

I remember getting mad at you because you would put the creatine on a spoon and then pour it into your mouth and then put the spoon back in the common silverware drawer that you've got to do.

SPEAKER_02:

None of it touched my mouth. It was totally dry. Creatine just does.

SPEAKER_00:

What if you were allergic to creatine? You'd be dead.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, the good luck living. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

I was like, ew, you just ate off that spoon. But yeah, Foreman Grill would be the original. That was your original thing.

SPEAKER_02:

That was my thing. Form and grill.

SPEAKER_00:

Did you ever cook anything at home when you lived at home with your mom?

SPEAKER_02:

Um you know the very first thing I ever made in my life?

SPEAKER_00:

What?

SPEAKER_02:

Was a Belgian waffle.

SPEAKER_00:

At a hotel?

SPEAKER_02:

No, no, no, no, no. That's good. Uh no, just at our house for some we had a Belgian waffle maker, and I made one, and then uh I just kind of stopped.

SPEAKER_00:

Because you know, that was a lot of work.

SPEAKER_02:

And then I made jello, made instant jello, pudding.

SPEAKER_00:

Um after that, not much going on.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, yeah. A couple decades went by. Um Form and Grill used the crap out of that blender.

SPEAKER_00:

So on the Yeah, yeah, but did you bring using a blender in college? I don't remember that.

SPEAKER_02:

I definitely used a blender during college years, I guess.

SPEAKER_00:

So on the topic of turkey burgers and the Form and Grill, you want to share with the audience why? Yeah, well, you know, in the interest of body comp.

SPEAKER_02:

Folks, you need to uh you need a lot of you need a lot of protein in your diet.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, honey, you need some protein. As it turns out, your mom was right.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Anytime I'm like grumpy or so, I get extremely hangry. Um She'd be like, Oh, honey, you need some protein here. Here, have this. And she'd like him be like something with not a whole lot of things. Like a pork chop that she was using to flavor the sauce of you know, like I thought you were gonna say like cheese or peanut butter. My mom uses pork chops like other people use basil, which is wonderful.

SPEAKER_03:

It is delicious.

SPEAKER_02:

Anyways, uh yeah, uh the reason I like crock pots is you can you can make massive quantities of food with zero well not zero, but very little. I mean almost we're talking I could I could I could put together my typical croc crock pot meal in less than five minutes. And it's pretty much done. Like uh once you put it in, I usually do it right before bed. I go to sleep, first thing in the morning, I wake up, take it out, throw it in a chopper container or two or something.

SPEAKER_00:

From the 70s, which probably has lots of BPA in it. Although at this point it's probably all been like baked out.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

I think that happens.

SPEAKER_02:

Baked plum out.

SPEAKER_00:

Like plum out.

SPEAKER_02:

Um so yeah, this is my typical crockpot meal. I'll tell you, I'll tell you some of my my favorites over the years. Uh and they don't get too crazy, but it's um so I like to eat uh I like to eat about a pound of steak a day if possible. So I go, I buy like uh the tougher the meat the better. And the reason is because the tougher the meat, the cheaper. Well, crock pot, all tough meat gets salt. Delicious, yeah. Yeah. So you know, I could buy this is uh what 2025?

SPEAKER_00:

Like a prison.

SPEAKER_02:

Because it's tough. It's so tough. Because it's so tough, yeah. It's just it's sitting there doing concentration curls smoking a cigarette.

SPEAKER_00:

I'll take five pounds of that one.

SPEAKER_02:

No, this one's gonna do my taxes. It's a little Shaw Shank reference there. You got it? Good job. Um, so did you really?

SPEAKER_00:

No, but I just knew that all prisoners are not the same.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, so you didn't get it? No. I do get it.

SPEAKER_00:

I was like, wow, you got a Shaw Shank reference.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay. Leslie doesn't Leslie belittles me for uh for knowing movie references. Everything, and and if I say, Do you know what that's from? She's like, what Tommy boy? What is a Tommy boy? What is that from Tommy Boy? Usually it is. So uh I get a I get a pound of the top top round or or I or eye of the round.

SPEAKER_00:

That's my mom's favorite kind.

SPEAKER_02:

You are you have all come here from far, far away.

SPEAKER_01:

Gathering.

SPEAKER_02:

The eye of the round. The sauron cut.

SPEAKER_03:

It's a sauron cut.

SPEAKER_02:

It's uh no, uh just uh basically cheap, lean steak. So, you know, you got let's just say I got give or take 125 grams of protein, good quality protein, uh in a pound of steak. I think it's roughly correct. I I I put that in the crock pot, I just just put it all in there.

SPEAKER_00:

Yep, you just like open the package and you put it in. Go have a baby.

SPEAKER_02:

And then uh and then I get a can of tomato sauce and I pour that in. Sometimes, actually, you know what I've started doing? I pour just a little drizzle of the tomato sauce down to give it a little bath. So a little bath, yeah. And then if I'm really want to be lazy, if I take a uh like a 69 cent packet of chili mix and I just dust it, sprinkle some salt in there, done. Yeah, that's it. Um that that's I'm I'm good to go. I mean, that's basically two meals, two, three meals, depending on how I do it. And then I'll get a rice maker. We got that rice maker uh again, stupid easy. Takes no time at all to make the rice, uh just rice and water and salt. And uh excuse me.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh bye.

SPEAKER_02:

That's okay. That's our podcast. The audience won't like it. The audience won't like it. I had to do that. People are like, I'm starting to really like this. It's like uh Cobra or dog. Um everyone's like, okay. Okay, cool. Yeah, your dog burps. He's dead. Thanks a lot.

SPEAKER_00:

How do you feel? How does that make you feel?

SPEAKER_02:

Who's riding it on Cobra?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh not baking, because you broke Cobra's legs.

SPEAKER_02:

I didn't dig the hole deep enough for Cobra.

SPEAKER_00:

Um And we let him sit on the porch for a while until we could all say goodbye to him.

SPEAKER_02:

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00:

And I had to kind of we kissed his still warm.

SPEAKER_02:

He was not still warm.

SPEAKER_00:

When we kissed him? When we all anyway. So Cobra's available, but we haven't chosen the right person yet.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, he's not just anybody can write a cobra.

SPEAKER_00:

No.

SPEAKER_02:

I I honestly I would be up for Alan Thick riding him.

SPEAKER_00:

I'm not up for that.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh we'll talk. We'll talk.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay, off the air. Is it really considered on the air if you're just recording it to a computer?

SPEAKER_02:

I'd like to I'm sorry to tell you this, guys. Uh this is gonna be next week's podcast. I'm sorry to tell you this, guys. This will be the last show. Uh saying are getting a divorce. Uh Alan Thick. Alan Thick apparently is not good enough to ride our dead dog into to this concert that we're waiting forever and ever for. Um so yeah. Uh it's really easy. Uh there's this there's this meal I used to eat. So I might eat that. I said every day, I don't. Because fortunately, we always have leftovers.

SPEAKER_00:

We do, we try.

SPEAKER_02:

So I like to eat those as long as much as I can. I've made a lot of lunches just out of peanut butter sandwiches and sardines. So I'm not one thing I will tell you, but crock pots offer endless variety and it's all very easy. I've yet to run into a recipe that I cannot handle. Um, you could you could just it honestly just guess. Like you don't have to actually really measure anything, although feel free.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, it's not baking.

unknown:

Oh.

SPEAKER_00:

Baking requires measuring because it's chemistry, but throwing stuff in a slow cooker, you're just heating things up.

SPEAKER_02:

But one one thing that really helps, it's uh I consider it to be a uh a gift, personally. Um it's it's one of my one of my talents is my lack of food fatigue. It's my tolerance for yeah, it's my tolerance for food fatigue. I don't get very food fatigued. I can eat I mean eventually I will hit a hit a point where I need to switch it up, but I can and have eaten the same meal 30 times in a row. And it's true.

SPEAKER_00:

I've seen it.

SPEAKER_02:

You just do it and you just kind of it really starts to like rewire your brain. You know, you kind of just see food as like fuel. I mean, I still have some times where I'm just like I'm going nuts. Like I'm gonna sit here and just crush whatever this is.

SPEAKER_00:

Whatever I cooked in the screen right now. Right down the gullet.

SPEAKER_02:

Straight down the gullet. There's a baby in there.

SPEAKER_00:

Don't meet that. I just gave birth.

SPEAKER_02:

Have you ever had placenta?

SPEAKER_00:

No. What is wrong with you? Well I guess I have in my primal queen.

SPEAKER_02:

See?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, maybe they'll sponsor us.

SPEAKER_02:

No.

SPEAKER_00:

I love you, primal queen.

SPEAKER_02:

I don't, but I'm coming around. Um, one of my favorite crock pot meals.

SPEAKER_00:

It probably doesn't even have placenta in it, so they're probably not gonna sponsor us now.

SPEAKER_02:

Was uh oh sorry it may. Maybe maybe somebody ought to be putting some placenta in there. Something. Okay. Looking at you. Bramble queen. Queen. Um, College Boy. There's a meal called the College Boy I got off of bodybuilding.com.

SPEAKER_00:

Was this the one you made on the internet?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh on my YouTube channel. Uh yes.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay, tell us all about it.

SPEAKER_02:

It's a college boy. I uh ate this until I oh, let me tell you what's in it. So we got a bag? What? What?

SPEAKER_00:

You said let me tell you what's in it. And then there was like a 30-second pause while you were like, wait, what?

SPEAKER_02:

We have uh uh what I would do, I put in it uh a bag, a three-pound bag of Aldi's Aldi's frozen chicken.

SPEAKER_00:

Aldi's is the second, it's it's the second most important ingredient to a crockpot meal.

SPEAKER_02:

Yes, that is that's a very good point. Yes. So a bag of frozen chicken, um, a b uh uh a can of black beans, a can of corn, a jar of salsa, a block of cream cheese.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, I don't remember that.

SPEAKER_02:

And then I usually make two. Did you eat that? Do you eat the cream cheese? Try rice. Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

I didn't know you'd I thought.

SPEAKER_02:

This is what I was trying to put. I was this is what I was putting on weight.

SPEAKER_00:

I don't like cream cheese-based foods.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

You were putting on weight for Yeah, I was looking to Yeah. Well, I was trying to put on muscle.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

I was when it was when uh cream cheese muscle. I was uh basically I was eating like six, I think I got up to like sixty, two hundred calories a year.

SPEAKER_00:

I remember this.

SPEAKER_02:

So I would eat that. That would be it. I'd eat that in a day.

SPEAKER_00:

Are we like super happy? It's like one of the happiest times in the world.

SPEAKER_02:

No, it's brutal. Eating like that, it look like a lot of a lot whether you're whether you're trying to lose weight or gain it, eating is your job. Like that is where the that's where yeah, you gotta work out, of course, you gotta manage stress, you gotta sleep, you gotta do all those things. But if you are not eating right, or at least not making an effort to eat, if you don't know what you're eating, then you're not you're just not gonna have you're not gonna have the success you want. It's just pretty simple. Uh unless you're a genetic freak or something, but then you wouldn't be doing this and listening to this in the first place.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, no genetic freaks walking.

SPEAKER_02:

No, no, get the heck out of here. You pretty boy. Get out of here, Gene.

SPEAKER_00:

Um, is Jean has Gene always been sharper genetic?

SPEAKER_02:

Um yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Like the name Gene.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh yeah. Genetic Kelly. The famous dancer.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, silent laughter.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh okay. Anyways, uh so that was really fun to eat. Um basically what I would do is I'd just I get it out and I'd split it up in like five Tupperware containers.

SPEAKER_00:

And they just I'd we call that meal prep these days.

SPEAKER_02:

It's meal prep, yeah. That's the thing. Like you could, of course, have like four crock pots going. If you wanted, you could cook for the week. Or so it just depends on how much counter space and how many crock pots you have. But we just had the two, and it had to be a big one, big enough to birth a child.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, we've we're on our second child birthing crockpot too, because remember it cracked.

SPEAKER_02:

It's nice to have one with a timer on it. Right? Uh, this says uh we have low, high. I almost always recommend going low.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

So if you have the time.

SPEAKER_00:

If you're actually if you're not a bodybuilder and you're actually using the crock pot like to make a delicious.

SPEAKER_02:

I'm not a bodybuilder, by the way.

SPEAKER_00:

I just uh for your family. Kind of flirted with the Sometimes you might like put something on high for the first hour or two and then drop it to low for the rest of the cooking time.

SPEAKER_03:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Or if it's something supposed to cook high, or if if it's supposed to cook low eight hours and you don't have eight hours, sometimes you can cook high for four hours or something like that.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Yeah. You you you you you you meet yourself in the where you are.

SPEAKER_00:

That's right. You meet yourself where you are, M-E-A-T. It's so fun. Oh, meat pants. Meat pants. Speaking of pork chops.

SPEAKER_02:

Pork chop express.

SPEAKER_00:

If you ever butterfly a pork chop and you don't say meat pants, there's no place for you here. And you don't cry tears of joy over meat pants.

SPEAKER_02:

So uh what what else are we talking about with a with the with a crock pot? You we you I I anyways, I really, really love you gotta I gotta have a crock pot. Look, if you want to get fit, crock pot blender. Those are not negotiables as far as I'm concerned.

SPEAKER_00:

Tell me why rice and not why potato or is that purely because the ease of using the rice cooker?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. For me.

SPEAKER_00:

It's not as nutritional uh fit. Well, I mean you you like you're choosing rice because of the convenience, not because of a nutritional value.

SPEAKER_02:

Yes. Yeah. Uh white potatoes and rice, I think, are pretty darn similar as far as glycemic glycemic load goes. Um they're actually you really, really gotta watch your servings. I know I said I ate two cups dry of rice every day, but again, I also said I was trying to hit over 6,000 calories. I mean, I was working out moving constantly. I was running sessions all day. I just I burned it off. Now I now I'm closer to 2,500 calories a day.

SPEAKER_00:

And now I use two cups to serve our family of four and we have leftovers.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. So but I I try to yeah, I I do an okay job eating them.

SPEAKER_00:

A comparison.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, I gotcha.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, crock pots are great. They're great for dips, soups. I like to I like them. If I can get it my act together, speaking of eating at home and plan ahead, I do like to try to do a crock pot meal at least once a week because especially in sorry, I always hit the microphone stand.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, I I love you know I have several Russian friends, very dear to me. But they've just never shot a meeting.

SPEAKER_00:

That was made me sad.

SPEAKER_02:

That's uh have we have you ever seen the Hunt for Red October?

SPEAKER_00:

No, stop asking me about war movies.

SPEAKER_02:

It's a good movie.

SPEAKER_00:

Does it have a war in it?

SPEAKER_02:

It's got Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin in it.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay. It's the sound of me rolling my eyes. Um but anyway, yeah, it's great. But I like to do like beef stew or potato soup or things like that that you don't, you know, truly you could just dump a bunch of stuff in there in the morning and and leave. Like, if you don't know about crock pots, like what? Where have you been?

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. Yeah, where have you been?

SPEAKER_00:

I I will say I tried, we were gifted an instant pot. And I thought it was fine. I really liked it for cooking things like um beans and like lentils from hard, like dry, raw. I just had a moment where I thought someone was coming in the room. Is there anyone coming?

SPEAKER_02:

Somebody who's hard, dry, and raw.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh. Is it a bean?

SPEAKER_02:

Mr.

SPEAKER_00:

Bean. Is he riding in on a giant black bean?

SPEAKER_02:

Um we'll come back to that. Anyways, what are you saying?

SPEAKER_00:

We probably should not come back to that.

SPEAKER_02:

Insta uh instant.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay, yeah, that's the other thing. It's not called Instapot. I don't know where that's like a uh what's that thing?

SPEAKER_02:

The like a like a uh uh Mandala effect. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

It's instant pot. It's two words. Anyway, I thought it was fine. The thing that I liked about it is that you could turn it on like you were cooking in it and like sear your meat and stuff before you put it on like the instant pot pressure. It was like an electric pressure cooker, which is kind of scary.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. It's a little bomb.

SPEAKER_00:

And you could use it as a slow cooker as well, but several of the meals I made were not no one in my family really liked them that much. And and Rob said they that all tasted kind of like Chef YRD meals. Canned. And I wonder how much of that is like From the pressure. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02:

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00:

So I gave it, I like loaned it out long-term loan onto a friend.

SPEAKER_02:

It just wasn't good. It's not that good.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, it just it didn't taste as there's no substitute for cooking something for a long time. I really think that's what it is.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it is.

SPEAKER_00:

So I gave it to a friend and he has had it for I don't know, four years, maybe five.

SPEAKER_02:

Does he use it a lot?

SPEAKER_00:

He's never used it. Oh, okay. Unless he's used it since the last time I saw him. He was on vacation last week, so I don't know.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh that was the week that he decided to start using it.

SPEAKER_00:

And so I wouldn't say that an instant pot is a I think a crock pot is better than an instant pot. Now, the my latest obsession is my Dutch oven. And I love it. I'm talking about the cooking uh pot and not the pillow.

SPEAKER_02:

Not the bedtime, I think.

SPEAKER_00:

Not the no, I'm not farting and trapping someone under the covers. Is that what that was? Yeah, that's a Dutch. What am I confusing him with?

SPEAKER_02:

That's a pillow snack. Yeah. Yeah. I think that might have been a customer. Oh Gary. Yeah. Gary might have made that one up. Yeah. But Dutch oven, yeah, that's that's something we can all get on board with. Oh, get behind. Yeah, get behind or underneath it. Every which way, but uh anyway.

SPEAKER_00:

Mine is a big cast iron pot and it has a lid, and you can use it stovetop, and you can put it in the oven, and you can bake bread in it, you can make stews in it, and it is just what?

SPEAKER_02:

That's an interesting thing you're doing with your ankles there.

SPEAKER_00:

Doing anything with my ankle.

SPEAKER_02:

Do you like trapping them behind that metal bar?

SPEAKER_00:

Look, they're not trapped, they're free.

SPEAKER_02:

What would happen if I just kind of got behind you and pushed you over?

SPEAKER_00:

I'm talking about Dutch ovens. Why would you do that?

SPEAKER_02:

It's always gotta be ready. You never know. Somebody dry, hard, and raw might come up behind you. Push you over. You won't be able to move your feet.

SPEAKER_00:

Can you be both dry and raw? I guess so. Let's not go through.

SPEAKER_02:

Dry and raw, yes. Beans, lentils. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Anyways, you were saying?

SPEAKER_00:

I don't remember.

SPEAKER_02:

You're talking about an instacart?

SPEAKER_00:

I hope you choke on that water. I'm gonna kick you in the weak ankles. Ralph has weak ankles, everybody. If you've ever seen him in real life, you want to hurt him. Start there. Okay. You choked on your water. So yeah, you were saying uh So the nice thing about it is you can put it, you can start something and you can do what the Instant Pot's trying to do, which is like brown your meat or whatever. Get like kind of because it is nice if you brown your meat first and then cook it.

SPEAKER_02:

Yes, especially if it's like ground beef.

SPEAKER_00:

No. Like if it's like stew beef or like a big roast or something, it's nice to kind of blacken it up around the outside and just has better flavor and it's got a nicer texture. It's just it's just the way. Yeah. Pioneer Woman does it, you should be doing it that way. But then you can do all that stovetop and then you can just put this big heavy cast iron lid on it, stick it in the oven. You don't have to worry about your handles melting off or anything else. With a Dutch oven.

SPEAKER_03:

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. So it and it's awesome. And you can use a Dutch oven like at a low temperature in an oven if you don't have a crock pot.

SPEAKER_02:

But crock pots are so inexpensive.

SPEAKER_00:

Well they are, but I'm just saying, if you have a Dutch oven and an oven, if your crock pot broke that night and you're like, oh my gosh, I have to use the colour. Yeah, you could like turn your oven on to like a low 200 something and put those lentils in a Dutch oven.

SPEAKER_02:

So when would you choose a Dutch oven over a crock pot?

SPEAKER_00:

Uh when you're making like, I don't know, beef stews and stuff like that. I don't know. I I don't like the idea of leaving I don't know why this matters, but I don't like the idea of leaving my oven on when I'm at home. Even though I'm leaving a crock pot plugged in. So as I say that out loud, it sounds casting.

SPEAKER_02:

There's a lot well, there's a lot lower draw on crock pot than another than there is on an oven. Like way, like it's literally like a non-electrician, but it's probably like tenfold.

SPEAKER_00:

I also haven't done this yet, but I'm really looking forward to baking bread in my Dutch oven. Because all the people, all the influencers have Dutch ovens to bake their bread, and I got mine at Aldi. And I can't wait to use it for that.

SPEAKER_02:

How much was it? 30 bucks?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, six quarts for$30.

SPEAKER_02:

Six quarts.

SPEAKER_00:

And the easy like the other ones that I had seen, like Home Goods, places like that, were four quarts for$40. So Aldi with a win.

SPEAKER_02:

You know what's a killer crock pot recipe?

SPEAKER_00:

What?

SPEAKER_02:

The Megan, I'll shout out to her for giving it to me. Pot roast and a jar of horseradish sauce.

SPEAKER_00:

Why have we not been making that?

SPEAKER_02:

That's it. It's awesome. When I was doing the Mikito diet, I went to like a kettlebell seminar.

SPEAKER_00:

And she brought that?

SPEAKER_02:

And I no, I just had I just showed up. It was like in the middle of like the Athens Metro Parks or something.

SPEAKER_00:

You just had a crack bot full of it.

SPEAKER_02:

The guy running was like, What'd you got there? Uh you brought a pot roast, huh? That's okay. I found out that I uh you really gotta have high fat with keto. I didn't I did not I I thought it was just the absence of carbs. I didn't realize that too much protein will also potentially throw you out of ketosis if you're eating like 400 grams a day.

SPEAKER_00:

If you're eating a pot roast a day.

SPEAKER_02:

But anyways, yeah, that's that's about all I want to mention for for crock pots. It's there's a million recipes. Uh I'm extremely boring, but there are endless amounts out there. Super easy. If you're not using one and you care about anything, you're an idiot.

SPEAKER_00:

It's an easy way to level up.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, it totally is. I highly agree.

SPEAKER_00:

I mean, and the other thing is if you hate chicken like I do, I can actually tolerate crock pot chicken because when you cook it all day, it shreds. And I don't mind shredded chicken, but of course the children don't like shredded chicken, so you know what I did one time?

SPEAKER_02:

I smoked up some meat and then put it in the crock pot. That was awesome.

SPEAKER_00:

Wow.

SPEAKER_02:

I mean like a pasta dish.

SPEAKER_00:

Was I around for that?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, you were.

SPEAKER_00:

Was I giving birth in the same crock pot?

SPEAKER_02:

No. No. A different crock pot. But you were trying to. I guess like I'm I you have to at least wait for me to finish this meal. Yeah. Two more hours. You're like, put it on high.

SPEAKER_03:

What?

SPEAKER_02:

This baby's not gonna wait. Put it on high. You were crazy back then.

SPEAKER_00:

16 years ago or 13.

SPEAKER_02:

That was uh That was 13. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, that was a crazy baby.

SPEAKER_02:

It was a crazy day.

SPEAKER_00:

That baby cried a lot. We needed to put it on high.

SPEAKER_02:

It it did. The baby did cry a lot.

SPEAKER_00:

Actually, the first one cried way more, but this one cried, the second one cried more at night.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, first the second one was more frequent, first one was more terrible.

SPEAKER_00:

Angry.

SPEAKER_02:

Just intensity, just a thousand suns.

SPEAKER_00:

Until it was three.

SPEAKER_02:

Mm-hmm. Brutal. So, um what have we got? 57 minutes in? We've covered a lot of ground. We have. We've talked 50s chord progressions. Wow. We did a jingle. We wrote a jingle.

SPEAKER_00:

You really gonna try to recap everything we've talked about?

SPEAKER_02:

We wrote a really good jingle. Listen up. Great jingle. We talked about Howl's Moving Castle Castle.

SPEAKER_00:

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02:

Howl H O W E L L S.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, it's H-O-W-L.

SPEAKER_02:

Howl? Oh, like a wolf of some kind.

SPEAKER_00:

But I don't want to give away too much, but Oh, okay, don't.

SPEAKER_02:

But I will.

SPEAKER_00:

There's a fun play on that, so.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh. Wu Tang Clan?

SPEAKER_00:

It's not in the book, no.

SPEAKER_02:

Wu Wu Tang Clan is not in the book. Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Um WWF.

SPEAKER_02:

WWF came up. They might have, you know, they were in uh there was a game called uh Oh crap, it's gonna kill me. Def Def Jam. There was a fighting game, it was a Def Jam fighting game that had tons of rappers in it. It's like not a bad game. I cannot remember what the heck it's called.

SPEAKER_00:

Anyways, even though it had rappers in it.

SPEAKER_02:

I'll talk. We'll uh not only we'll have an episode of it. I'll make you play.

SPEAKER_00:

You're gonna have to listen back to this so that we can remember all these cool ideas you've had about future podcasts. Throw the list we already have out the window.

SPEAKER_02:

Heck was the name of that front. Dang it. Can you look it up?

SPEAKER_00:

I don't I can't reach my phone. We don't need to look at it.

SPEAKER_02:

Talk about Inger Michelson.

SPEAKER_00:

I need to know how I don't know that much about Inger Michelson.

SPEAKER_02:

I do.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay, well, I so she's kind of a folksy singer songwriter, for sure. And I love her songs, they are really fun and cute. And I like a I like a package, like a clear start-stop. I like that. I like for things to have a real nice leaf.

SPEAKER_02:

The fight for New York.

SPEAKER_00:

Cool, thanks for that. That's what the cool game's called. I like for things to have a nice um, I don't know, tied up with a neat little bow. And I love all of her songs are like that. And her songs also are nicely lending themselves for harmonies. It's fun to sing along to. I feel like my voice is probably in a family that would be related to her voice as far as voice types. That'd be a fun one to talk about sometime, too. It would.

SPEAKER_03:

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Um she's also still composes music. I can tell you one thing I know is that the musical, the notebook, if you're familiar with that movie, they made a musical out of it.

SPEAKER_01:

I have seen that movie.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, that's true. Wow. Wow.

SPEAKER_01:

Is that something?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Tenderheart.

SPEAKER_02:

No. No. It's a good movie. It's more of a more I mean in some way I'm not really going after movies like that, but it was well done.

SPEAKER_00:

It's a book by Nicholas Sparks. Anyway, they made a musical out of it and Ingrid Michelson did the music for it. So I would be actually you know what? I should listen to that.

SPEAKER_03:

You should.

SPEAKER_00:

I'll let you know if I do.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

I used to be very into musicals and I really could care less about them now.

SPEAKER_02:

You've done uh so we've we've talked about how you know one of the reasons we do covers every episode one for my mother. It's her birthday coming up. Although by the time this is released, she'll have been eighty five.

SPEAKER_00:

No. It's your birthday tomorrow though. Yes. Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Um, but then uh also talk about maybe wanting to play out sometime, just be kind of fun. And then uh but we've we have played out technically before. I've I've just noodled on the guitar while you've played chords and chords and sang, yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

But you did like that.

SPEAKER_02:

What like five Ingrid Michelson songs?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, probably.

SPEAKER_02:

But uh you do you you do you do them really well and they're they're really nice songs. Like they're they're just really well put together.

SPEAKER_00:

She's a good songwriter.

SPEAKER_02:

She's solid, yeah. She's really solid. She her I guess she's I think her mom is like a like professional composer, I want to say.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02:

And I think her dad is like a copyright, like a music copyright.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, so he's like the jail police of music.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. And basically he's the one that's gonna not let us cover his daughter's songs on this podcast.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, you guys are just gonna have to come see us play out sometime.

SPEAKER_02:

We'll ever hear it. Um this song, though, in particular, it's uh it's fun. You did this, you did this at that show.

SPEAKER_00:

The talent show.

SPEAKER_02:

The talent show. And it was uh you got little fun little plays on words like doing what bunnies do.

SPEAKER_00:

Yes. I'm allowed to sing that because I'm married and I mean it.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh wow, it's wonderful. Thank you.

SPEAKER_00:

I'm looking at your eyeballs. Um Bunnies at our house, bunnies bite and murder.

SPEAKER_02:

Bunny uh is that what she's talking about? Yeah, she wants to bite the face off of her companion. Yeah, Dan Romer, I think was the name of the guy who sang on that.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay. I think she bit did she murder him?

SPEAKER_02:

She bit his face off. She didn't kill him, but he wished he was dead.

SPEAKER_00:

Did his son find him?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Son found him, said something's wrong with Dan.

SPEAKER_00:

We had two bunnies and they were they belonged to our children, and we were trying to I don't know. I mean, they were domestic bunnies, but we were trying to make them friendlier. And we bought them harnesses, and we used to take them on walks, and they hated it. And one night we couldn't get we'd take the bunnies on walks.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Would what do you think it sounded like? It's just such an absurd notion that people take their cats to the world we live in. People are taking everything on the city. Telling you what, Rob's not on the socials. Yeah. Anyway, um Therapy bunny. And this bunny the one bunny would I think it was Caroline's bunny. Was hers the prettier one? I don't know.

SPEAKER_02:

Hers was the cannibal.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, hers was the one that murdered her brother's bunny. Yeah. And she went down one day to feed the bunnies. And so she went out one door to feed the bunnies, and then she saw that the one bunny had murdered the other bunny. And I mean like viciously eaten off the face of the bunny.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah, like silence of the lambs, basically. Like animal actor.

SPEAKER_00:

We've had a lot of animal cruelty on this show. Anyway, we didn't do it. Anyway, so then she comes running back up to the house to try to get in in time before her brother who comes down to help her. Meanwhile, he goes out a different door. So as she's running in, she doesn't see him go down. So he goes down and sees the massacre. He's the little brother. And then they both come running up, and then I went back down to look, and I was like, Well, this is a job for a name.

SPEAKER_02:

Something's wrong with Something's wrong. Something's wrong with Oh, I know what it is. He doesn't you see that part of his face where it doesn't, it's not there.

SPEAKER_00:

What are their names? Mello, Mellow?

SPEAKER_02:

Mellow Man.

SPEAKER_00:

Rory. Rory killed Mellow.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

And Mellow, there's something wrong with Mellow.

SPEAKER_02:

So, like, that's the kind of what like and Ingram Michelson was there. So she's like, I got a song I'm working on.

SPEAKER_00:

This is gonna fit right.

SPEAKER_02:

I wanna do what bunnies do.

SPEAKER_00:

With you. If you know what I mean.

SPEAKER_02:

Eat your stupid face off.

SPEAKER_00:

But the music is great.

SPEAKER_02:

Have you ever seen face off?

SPEAKER_00:

Uh remembering our kids wanted to watch that.

SPEAKER_02:

I want to watch face off.

SPEAKER_00:

So if you were if you participated in our most recent podcast by listening, and you and we talked a lot about music, this does some fun stuff. This has a major three instead of a minor three.

SPEAKER_02:

Wait, real quick, you're gonna kill me. There's this there's this thing that you've been doing. But I think I think it's gonna be really loud in the microphone. Is it coughing? No, it's it's this.

SPEAKER_00:

It's it's that I quit. No Allen thick and swallowing noises is all it did it.

SPEAKER_02:

The swallow noises are loud. They're just loud. We've gotta be we've gotta be careful here.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh my gosh, I'm dead. No. Just sorry everybody. That was me doing that. It wasn't her.

SPEAKER_00:

It's fine if it was me. I'm sorry. I wasn't doing it on purpose.

SPEAKER_02:

Don't ever swallow again on the microphone.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

Sometimes I say things that aren't that I wish I didn't say.

SPEAKER_00:

I feel that way about you too.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay, anyways.

SPEAKER_00:

Kill the flow.

SPEAKER_02:

There's a minor there's a third, um, there's a minor third, obviously.

SPEAKER_00:

No, it's a major third. There's no thirds.

SPEAKER_02:

There's a three.

SPEAKER_00:

Third refers to an interval.

SPEAKER_02:

Is it the E?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, the E is should be a minor chord in the key of C, but in the chorus, she makes it an E major.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh, okay. It's really cool. I actually really love it. That's my favorite part of the song.

SPEAKER_00:

Mm-hmm. It's the best part of the song.

SPEAKER_02:

It is. And that's that's the part where it's it's basically throughout the chorus, right? Is that what we're talking about?

SPEAKER_00:

Yep.

SPEAKER_02:

So it's this uh it's oh, you know what it is?

SPEAKER_01:

It's the same thing that's in uh that's in uh um and then it Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Uh freight train.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

Does that same, it's a it's a It goes from an E to an F.

SPEAKER_00:

And that's what that does.

SPEAKER_02:

It sounds minor. I know I always say that and I sound stupid, but it sounds minor.

SPEAKER_00:

Literally, you know, that G sharp, because it it almost makes like a tritone. Because you you would never have a G sharp in the key C because that's a tritone. That's taking your perfect fifth and raising it up. Nope, just kidding, a tritone is a never mind. Scratch that, delete that, delete that and all my swallowing. All my swallowing and that wrong thing.

SPEAKER_02:

You know what? I'm messing with uh buzz sprout that might have uh swallowing removal.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay, great. So what it actually does, what I meant to say, not tritone. It's taking it's making the G, the note, the single note G that is in the key of C and making it a G sharp temporarily while you're playing the key the chord E.

SPEAKER_03:

Hmm.

SPEAKER_00:

And what that does is that's actually like a flat, it'd be an A flat, which would be a minor six in the key of C. So it kind of gives it a a feel of a minor sound. But it's not, it's a major chord, it's a borrowed chord.

SPEAKER_02:

What's a tritone?

SPEAKER_00:

A tritone is so you have in music you have intervals. You have a perfect fourth and a perfect fifth, but there is a half step between the perfect fourth and the perfect fifth, and that is a tritone. Oh so it's so in the key of C the perfect fourth is C to F. A perfect fifth is C to G, but since you have an F sharp slash G flat, that is a tritone. It's two major No, it's I don't know. I think I'm done.

SPEAKER_02:

Do we have a tritones episode?

SPEAKER_00:

No. I I'm done. I've cashed in all the all I know on music theory.

SPEAKER_02:

I'm gonna probably bone up a little bit on tritones for the next one.

SPEAKER_00:

I won't be able to correct you, so.

SPEAKER_02:

Are we doing what are we doing? Dollhouse murders.

SPEAKER_00:

I thought we just said we were gonna do that next. Next week? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02:

So we'll we'll listen this week and I'll do my um I'm gonna read it. Make a YouTube video on oh, this is a YouTube video. Hey, watch us on YouTube.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_02:

For our cover of Ingrid Michelson's You and I.

SPEAKER_00:

SPEAKER_02:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

She's white. I know that.

SPEAKER_02:

She is. Yeah. She looks like it.

SPEAKER_00:

She's probably uh maybe five, ten years older than us, would you say?

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

You think she's 50?

SPEAKER_02:

I think I feel like I saw when she was born maybe 79.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, so she's just five years old.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah. There was um she plays a ukulele on that song. Very simple song. She's apparently a really good piano player. Have you listened to her play piano at all and stuff?

SPEAKER_00:

Or uh I've had to look that up. No. There's the other girl I like, Sarah Borellis. She plays the piano.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay. Yeah, this song's just a ukulele and then some drums at the end. I think.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Um a cappella chorus with a big old bunch of people singing along.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

What kind of sweaters do you think they're gonna buy? I think cashmere.

SPEAKER_02:

Oh.

SPEAKER_00:

For sure. Yeah, I mean if you have if you are they don't they don't specify how much money we can ever buy our parents anything because I think they have to die first for us to buy them a house in France.

SPEAKER_02:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

And they can be in our concert.

SPEAKER_02:

They can, yes. Now that you guys are dead. Maybe you can get a ride with Biggie.

SPEAKER_00:

Who can ride it on Cobra?

unknown:

Oh man.

SPEAKER_00:

They can all take turns on Cobra.

SPEAKER_02:

Okay. Does Cobra want that?

SPEAKER_00:

Well, he can't talk or walk.

SPEAKER_02:

You can't talk. Sorry, dude. Uh, is there anything else we want to talk about before we go?

SPEAKER_00:

Sadness?

SPEAKER_02:

Uh because of the swallowing thing? Oh my gosh, I knew it.

SPEAKER_00:

Here's the thing. Like, I we have five you let me do it for 55 minutes, and then you said something to me at the very end.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, I just noticed it.

SPEAKER_00:

Uh I probably won't even be able to listen to this one to proofread it.

SPEAKER_02:

Well, you know I'm sensitive to those things. Did you know that?

SPEAKER_00:

I'm sensitive about it too.

SPEAKER_02:

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, I hope you guys enjoyed the last episode of The Audience Won't Like It.

SPEAKER_02:

Because of the Alan Tick thing.

SPEAKER_00:

And the swallowing. We should hang it up now.

SPEAKER_02:

What can I do? What can I do? I'll uh is there another book you'd like me to read in addition to the dollhouse murders?

SPEAKER_00:

No. How's Moving Castle?

SPEAKER_02:

How's Moving Castle? Okay.

SPEAKER_00:
