George Milton 0:49

and aloha to Veto the podcast. The podcast where everybody knows the secret. But you, I'm joined as always. Hold on. Wait. I myself George Milton, your host, co-ho. America's favorite uncle, AKA. The fun call. Justin. I'm joined today as always by my two beautiful co-hosts. One of the top two most beautiful co-hosts that I have is Brent Bobbitt.

Brent 1:19

Hello everybody. It's good to be back today. Looking forward to talking about some really stupid stuff.

George Milton 1:25

I'm looking forward to listening to you be part of that. I'm also joined. By my other podcaster and neighbor, Justin Schafer. What's up

justin 1:35

What is going on, everybody? I'm so excited and happy to be here. I just want to shout out. I thank God and I thank my family for allowing me this time to be here and just my co-hosts to just make this possible in every way.

George Milton 1:50

Yeah.

Brent 1:50

That was beautiful.

George Milton 1:50

What an acceptance speech. I.

justin 1:52

It just felt right.

George Milton 1:53

Yeah, I'm gonna get some royalty free music maybe to play under that. I probably won't though. If you're listening to this and there's no

Brent 1:59

Just imagine it.

George Milton 2:00

yeah, just imagine royal royalty free acceptance music. We've got a fantastic episode in the in store for you guys today.

Brent 2:07

Maybe

George Milton 2:09

we haven't

Brent 2:10

one would hope.

George Milton 2:10

in a couple of weeks. What have you guys been what have you guys been up to?

Brent 2:15

I, as a guy in his early forties have been trying to be a little more active, so I, of course, injured myself by stepping weird as one does. So that's,

George Milton 2:27

man. That sucks.

Brent 2:28

yeah, that's been what's up with me.

George Milton 2:31

What,

Brent 2:31

about you?

justin 2:32

been traveling, I've been doing, I've been doing some stuff, I'm old too, but I got myself in shape, so I've been doing some things. I'm only hurting a little bit. Not too bad. I just went I just was. Back and forth between New York for a couple weddings and went to Aruba for a job. So that was fun. But I'm tired of sweating'cause it is.

George Milton 2:52

about how you did injure yourself in Aruba.

justin 2:54

I did, I ripped up my legs pretty good on some rocks and I'm just lucky I didn't break my ankles. So that was super fun way to start the job.

Brent 3:02

That sounds so hardcore though. You know Who doesn't like

justin 3:05

As you're walking through the lobby and the guy's excuse me, sir, you're bleeding. And I'm like, yes, I know. Thank you.

Brent 3:11

hell yeah. I am.

George Milton 3:12

This is a thesis I just came up with. I think normal injuries get cooler the farther you are from where your home is. Like spraining your ankle inside your house, super dumb. Spraining your ankle in Aruba. Pretty fucking cool.

justin 3:28

Yeah.

Brent 3:29

it while stepping weird by playing leisurely sports. Not so cool.

George Milton 3:33

Literally sports. Yeah.

justin 3:36

Yeah, yeah listen, I threw out my back like a couple weeks ago just doing like a step up, working out in the gym and I was down for a week and a half. Sometimes the body just gotta correct itself.

Brent 3:48

Yeah, it do be like that. I guess

George Milton 3:50

Do be like that sometimes. Speaking of being like an older guy, what we did an exciting thing today here at my house, we we redid our chore guide. I don't know if you guys have like a ch.

justin 4:03

you had a chore chart. Do you get gold stars?

George Milton 4:05

have a chore chart that's like the weekly, biweekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual. There's a lot of shit. There's a lot of chores on that list.

Brent 4:17

Do you, so you have an actual, you have a list right?

justin 4:19

home is hard, dude owning a home, there's a lot of stuff that no one tells you about that you have to do all the times.

George Milton 4:25

it's a privileged, this is a very privileged take, but it is. Yeah, it is a take for sure. It's just a bunch of stuff that's oh, now that I don't, I'm not paying like a landlord to do that stuff. Granted, every landlord I've ever had has not done this stuff in a timely manner. It's always you're always like, hate the landlord because your ceiling's had a hole in it for two

Brent 4:45

And now you get it.

George Milton 4:47

now. Yeah. Now you're like, shit, I don't have I, it's gonna, it cost what to fix a hole in the roof, even with my insurance. Anyway, we updated our short chart today. Do you guys have a short chart

justin 5:01

We do. Kids, the kids have a chore chart. We have my wife likes to do lots of projects chart and she keeps just walking around, cutting holes in the wall, and so then I have to do projects. That's our chore chart.

George Milton 5:14

your landlord is putting holes in

justin 5:16

Yeah. My landlord, ak, the boss of the house, is putting holes and tearing stuff down all the time.

George Milton 5:22

It's crazy.

justin 5:24

She likes to say, New fixer upper, so there you go.

George Milton 5:26

If that's

Brent 5:28

Yeah, I was no no chore chart. At our house. We just

George Milton 5:32

you

Brent 5:33

But we don't have the kids so we gotta do it ourselves. So it's,

George Milton 5:36

To the kids.

Brent 5:37

Swallowed hole. But any like the,

George Milton 5:40

gross.

Brent 5:42

What I didn't. Anyway we just have our own divisions of labor that we each engage in. Heidi. Takes the helm on more of that than I do. But I do a lot more of the cooking and I pay a larger share of the, expenses and all that. So but it's, it's the way that we've, I mean we, it works for us, but like most of it, we just kinda keep clean. Like whenever it comes to like we just kinda keep a tidy place. We don't really leave a lot of things like sitting around. We just kinda clean as we go rather than taking time to do it.

George Milton 6:13

I think the reason that this came up is because I've probably been letting down my end. So Aaron was like, let's revise the chore chart. Oh. so that I can look at the stuff I'm supposed to be doing. think.

justin 6:28

We figured it out, George. Get to work.

George Milton 6:31

I did, I have been dropping a couple of things that I was supposed to be doing. We hadn't really trash used to be my job, but I feel like she's been doing it, like taking out the trash anyway.

justin 6:41

Listen, there's some things that are oddly satisfying. Like I just got out and I was borrowing my neighbor's bush trimmer, and it was like oddly satisfying to square square off the bushes. You're like,

Brent 6:54

Oh yeah.

justin 6:55

that. Look at those straight lines. That's pretty cool. Oh wait, now this bush is square and not crazy looking.

George Milton 7:03

Love a square bush.

justin 7:04

Love a square bush.

George Milton 7:05

we

justin 7:06

I love it. I love it.

George Milton 7:07

Okay. It is. I, one of my most satisfying chores is like cleaning the kitchen. I love cleaning a kitchen or a bathroom just'cause it's all hard surfaces and I understand how to clean those.

justin 7:21

Can you come over to my house and help me with that?

George Milton 7:23

Absolutely man. You guys don't have carpet on your kitchen counters or anything, do you?

justin 7:28

No.

Brent 7:29

No, just we have it all over, like in the bathroom, right under the toilet, where you know the good spot so you can have comfy feet while you're peeing on the floor.

George Milton 7:38

Bobby Murphy rented a place, wait, was it Bobby? It was somebody who worked at Pete's in Houston. Shout out Bobby Murphy. Either way. Had a place, I think it might've been Jolene with a in the bathroom. There was literally like you stepped out of the shower onto carpet. If you're going to the bathroom, like on carpet, the most insane thing I've ever

Brent 7:59

I, I grew up in a trailer in a small town in Texas and yeah our, the master bathroom in there, carpet on the bathroom floor. Fucking weird. Anybody would ever do that?

justin 8:10

That is so gross to have carpet on a bathroom

Brent 8:12

Yeah, no. And it was made that way, like somebody in a corporate realm decided we're gonna make a bunch of these. All of'em are gonna have carbon

justin 8:22

that's like you go to Olive Garden and they have carpet on the floor throughout the whole restaurant, and you're like. That carpet has gotta be so disgusting.

Brent 8:29

so gross.

justin 8:30

like, so gross. The stuff that falls on there. What? Like you're just like, you can't get this clean. Like I don't care if you have that little swifter like thing that picks up food off a carpet. That thing is disgusting.

George Milton 8:41

about. The little like flat carpet

justin 8:43

Yeah, those things are cooler. Like vacuum, but not, yeah, it's not a vacuum, but it like picks up. don't know, but it's cool.

George Milton 8:48

talking about? Like I worked at a restaurant called Chappy's Deli in Birmingham. like a sandwich. It's kinda like McAllisters, but a bunch of people would. You had a waiter. It's like McAllisters. If you had a waiter, which was insane as a concept.

Brent 9:02

Yeah we called that machine a zoom broom whenever I was there. We're doing.

George Milton 9:05

the fuck that thing was where you had to like, it didn't do anything. It would just spread like chips across the floor and stuff.

Brent 9:12

When they function properly, they'll take the right size crumbs and just collect them. It's not a vacuum cleaner, but when functioning properly they're handy. I didn't mind the things. But hey this you, my, this won't be interesting for the show, but side note, Justin I, do you remember George? You don't, your mic doesn't sound very good this time. I don't remember it sounding.

George Milton 9:34

sound very good.

Brent 9:35

It's, yeah, like compared to Justin's mic sounds nice and rich and full and

justin 9:39

Yeah.

Brent 9:40

Drive throughy.

George Milton 9:42

Weird. What does it

Brent 9:44

Is it like that for you, Justin, or is that just me?

justin 9:46

it sounds a little echoey,

Brent 9:47

Yeah. Yeah.

justin 9:48

a little hollow.

Brent 9:49

I wouldn't wanna do like a whole thing of this and then,

justin 9:51

george would just have to mix it on his end, so there you go.

Brent 9:54

And yes, like you can save some of that, but if something's not got with good quality it's, it's, it's,

justin 10:01

Oh my gosh. It's like a brand new George.

George Milton 10:05

Okay.

Brent 10:06

Okay. I'm glad I said something.

George Milton 10:06

wrong, I was

justin 10:08

Wrong hole again.

George Milton 10:10

Yeah. Brent, I should have checked when you were having trouble with yours because I was apparently on my webcam microphone. I didn't

Brent 10:16

Sense.

George Milton 10:16

now.

Brent 10:17

I was gonna say it does not. Yeah,

George Milton 10:19

All right. Sorry, the listener. If you've been hearing a tinny me, this is this

Brent 10:23

all right. We caught it early.

justin 10:24

George.

Brent 10:24

We caught it early.

George Milton 10:25

it. Oh, that's crazy. I wonder if I can I wonder if I can boost it so much that it sound any different, and then I will have felt like I wasted money on this nice microphone.

Brent 10:35

I'm gonna bet against it, but good luck.

George Milton 10:37

me too. I'm gonna bet against it too. Do you guys wanna just start over? Welcome to Vito. Vito, the podcast. It's a podcast where we do segments. Let's do some segments.

justin 10:46

Let's do

Brent 10:46

Listen, Hey, I'm gonna use a veto to veto the starting over. I say, we continue on and we own the mistake.

George Milton 10:53

Very fair.

justin 10:53

I had a great intro, so I'm vetoing it as well.

George Milton 10:56

you had a fantastic intro.

Brent 10:58

yeah, we couldn't recapture that.

George Milton 11:00

Everybody's got two veto cards.

Brent 11:02

Not well.

George Milton 11:02

Brent's got one now.

Brent 11:03

I've got one now. I

George Milton 11:05

noble burn of the veto card. Thank you. The

Brent 11:07

think it was necessary.

George Milton 11:09

That was noble. Let's go to let's go to our segments. I'm gonna, I'm gonna roll a I'm gonna roll a D 20.

Brent 11:19

Oh, nice. I like it.

George Milton 11:20

So one, one to seven will be will be Brent. Eight to 15 will be Justin. 16 to 20 will be me.

Brent 11:33

I like that you're stacking the odds for us a little bit here. Very generous of you

George Milton 11:38

here it is. Go. That's a 10. I think that's Brent.

Brent 11:43

Justin.

justin 11:44

Oh,

Brent 11:44

No.

justin 11:45

I'm eight. Yeah, I thought I was the second round. Oh, so you want me to do a segment first? Is that what you're saying to me?

George Milton 11:50

You go

justin 11:50

Fine.

George Milton 11:51

you can hand it off to whoever you want.

justin 11:53

I love new strategy. So

Brent 11:56

nobody's gonna veto that. That's a great strategy.

justin 11:58

that's a great strategy. No one's vetoing. So we are, as we know, we're in Austin, and this is the first weekend of ACL for anyone. This is not gonna come out in that time, but. Just so everyone knows, we have Austin City Limits going on right now, which is a really fun music festival. So we're gonna do our overrated, underrated, and perfectly rated around music since my two co-hosts are musically inclined. So we're gonna, we're gonna, as we do, we're gonna I'm gonna name an artist and you can tell. take if they're perfectly rated, underrated or overrated. And we're gonna start it off because I was just at a wedding in New York and they played a lot of him at this wedding. And they just had a documentary come out, which changed my kind of view on it. But we're gonna start with Mr. Piano Man himself. Mr. Billy, Joel, George, what say you, how is he rated in the landscape for you in music?

George Milton 12:54

How do we think that? He's we think? We think he is? He is definitely like highly rated. Do

Brent 13:01

I would say so. There's people sure that because maybe they weren't alive at the time or don't follow like more classical, not classical, but classic music that maybe they're not at, he's not as on their radar. But I don't think that there's a significant number of people that are aware of Billy Joel that wouldn't put him at a highly rated. Capacity that are really familiar with his work. I think he's highly rated.

George Milton 13:24

Can I introduce a thought here that I think like the older. Like the older a musician is like the longer ago they are from probably the better chance they have of being overrated.'cause I would say that like today there's so many, it's so democratized as far as who can produce and release music. It's really hard to get it marketed still. But like I, I feel like a lot of people from that era, if you could hear everybody who was making music, then you'd be like, oh wow. There's. they were overrated. To that sense, I think that there are a lot of like older musicians that are overrated. But I do think that he's changed, music. Like he moved music forward in a big way, I feel like.

Brent 14:07

Yeah, so I mean I, but I think kinda what.

justin 14:10

or overrated for you? George?

George Milton 14:12

I think he's, I think Billy Joel is perfectly rated.

Brent 14:17

So I'll tag onto what you're saying there. And I'll say that I think that you're in saying the older that a musician is, the higher chance they're gonna have to be more like highly rated. And but I think that's, I. Sort of a sur survivorship bias kind of thing going on. Yes, the, we're looking at the ones that are still around. They've been there, so of course they're the ones that are gonna be more highly rated because if they weren't, they would've fallen off by now and they just, we wouldn't give a shit about'em anyway. But I'll just echo everything that you're saying there that I think that he really did change a lot of the face of what. Has gone on in music, and I think that with where his legacy stands right now I think he's perfectly rated. I think he's highly rated and deserves to be. Yeah, I'm gonna agree with George on that and just say, in my opinion, perfectly rated.

justin 15:05

I think for me it's really interesting because yeah, growing up, I mean we're all in our forties. We know it's, it's a little bit different. Like I think younger people now maybe don't know him as well, and like even for me that have listened to a lot of Billy Joel, I wasn't like. I didn't know all of his catalog like the way I thought I did until I watched the documentary and I was like. Oh yeah, the dude was a gangster. Like the amount of albums he pulled out in that run and how big he was in the seventies and eighties, which was when I was really little. So I don't really, didn't have a full grasp on that. So it's almost in a weird way, like for the newer generation, I feel like he's slightly underwriting'cause people don't know what a gangster he was. And how dominant he was in those in the eighties and the nineties. Like just, he was that dude, right? Like he was the T swizzle of that time. He was just crushing what is it, 17 albums or something like that, that were just classic boom. And he just kept going. And even like Piano Man was off of one of his first albums that no one really knew and didn't even make him a star. But now we know Piano Man is like, everyone knows that song. So it's almost yeah, he's, I feel like for the newer generations he might be slightly underrated'cause they don't know the breadth of catalog.

Brent 16:18

I can agree with that wholeheartedly. Really becomes a question of, are we talking about the rating of the whole general public or more skewed towards a different demographic or because like again, as a people that are aware of him and know his legacy, I think that to their minds, he's a very highly rated guy. But I can also agree with what you're saying that in these newer generations coming up, they're, he's just not enough on their radar. So in that regard, absolutely underrated. I could agree with you there.

justin 16:47

I'm gonna take a, we're gonna go in a totally different direction. We're gonna go newer artist now, and we're gonna go because she had a big record drop this week. We're gonna go with T Swizzle herself. The Taylor Swift.

George Milton 16:59

God,

justin 17:00

Yes, George.

George Milton 17:01

I'm

justin 17:01

I.

George Milton 17:01

come out and say overrated. I think she's incredibly overrated. I don't care who I, you know what, if you disagree with that, you don't have to listen to this podcast. It might not be for you anyway.

Brent 21:02

I find myself to be more or less swiftly neutral. If,

George Milton 21:08

cool. I.

Brent 21:09

If I have to, really give that assessment to it I'll err on the side of saying overrated in the sense that she's become essentially like the biggest artist that there's ever been ever. Ever.

George Milton 21:21

Yes,

Brent 21:21

I don't think she has the talent. I don't think she has the talent to merit that. I think that she's been the recipient of some expert level teamwork and marketing. There's been a whole machine that surrounded her to turn her into this like image that, that has been sold really well. So as a product. Fine. I guess someone they locked into something. She became the biggest beneficiary of that. But many people around here have gotten very, around her, have gotten very rich off of Taylor Swift as well. So it's I don't really look at her as like an individual that, that all the success has stemmed from as much as like a team that she's the face of. But as an individual, as an artist no totally overrated. She's not that good of a singer. She's hailed as some amazing songwriter, but she's had ridiculous amounts of, help in that. She always has a team of people that she's writing with. It's not like the image they portray her as this little girl in her bedroom writing the songs all back. Fuck that. She's overrated. I.

justin 22:18

Tell me how you feel, really feel, Brett? No, I

Brent 22:20

saying I'm neutral because like I can appreciate the success and what, they were able to tap into a lot of luck, a lot of good strategy and planning, but at the end of the day, it wasn't achieved because Taylor Swift was an incredible artist or is.

justin 22:34

I think listen, I think it's fair. Like I, I enjoy a lot of the stuff. I think it's fun. I like pop music. I'm not a snob when it comes to music and stuff. I'm all over the landscape. I enjoy some things. I love singing with my daughter. I do think. You're right. I think it in the musical landscape of history, it's a little bit overrated on how big she's become, like the biggest everything, right? And you're like, does that back up what it is? But no, people like it. They enjoy it. But I think from a pure musical landscape, possibly slightly overrated for sure. now we're gonna go to George's favorite band.

George Milton 23:13

I didn't know you knew my favorite band.

justin 23:14

Yeah.

Brent 23:15

Hansen.

justin 23:16

Line.

George Milton 23:17

Yeah. Okay. If it's Creed, I think they're underrated. I think they could be rated higher.

justin 23:22

I was gonna go with Creed because I know how much we love Creed, but let's go with the other one around that time, nickel back.

George Milton 23:28

Nickelback, man, I've, okay. There's a tiny story here. We. We went to this, Brenda, did you go to that one or did you have to work that night? You were there

Brent 23:40

both. You remember

George Milton 23:41

alright.

Brent 23:42

I left right before they got to like their big hits. But Nickelbacks one of those bands with a lot of fun. We can hit. So we I heard a lot of big ones before I had to roll, but yeah, I did have to go get on stage that night.

George Milton 23:53

but so the context is that Nickelback came to Austin a couple of years ago. I thought it would be ironic to go,'cause we like, came up in that era where Nickelback had a lot of stuff on the radio and they were like, they're like, the band, the number one band throughout time that people have made fun of Creed is like a close number two. And Nickelback and Creed came to Austin within the span of 10 months. I thought it'd be funny to go to Nickelback, like I bought tickets a hundred percent ironically to go to that show because I was thinking about rockstar, just their mega hits that everybody kinda makes fun of I went to the show and like I left the show a Nickelback fan. I was not a Nickelback fan when I went in.

Brent 24:35

They killed it that night, right?

George Milton 24:36

It and they didn't even sing Rockstar. They had some girl who won a radio contest. This is

Brent 24:42

oh really?

George Milton 24:43

Yeah. They

Brent 24:44

Yeah. I missed rockstar. That was one of the ones I didn't.

George Milton 24:46

Oh yeah, they they just had, so they were like, Hey, we get tired. We are tired of singing this song, but you guys aren't. So like we did a radio contest and the girl who won this radio contest, who was a terrible singer got up on stage with Nickelback and sang And everybody loved it and it was just as good or better as if they had just, anyway, Nickelback. I think Nickelback is awesome. And I also think. they have they're really funny. I don't know. They're really like self-referential about how much people have

Brent 25:18

shut on him.

George Milton 25:18

of them. Yeah. I.

Brent 25:20

That I remember like one of the times that I. Really kinda came around to, I, I wasn't really ever super on board. Like I, I could pile on with anybody, on the Nickelback stuff, but if I've objectively reviewed them as a band, like they're. Th they've got a lot of hits and they at live play their instruments on time together. And Chad Kroger sings on key, like with a notable tonality to his voice. So I don't know, I was never on board with the big time shitting on him, but one thing that Al always made me gain, just like a bunch of respect for them, was. At one point they were supposed to be, I wanna say it was like a halftime Super Bowl Entertainment in Detroit. It was in Detroit is what I remember though. But the people of Detroit came together to sign a big petition to say, we do not want nickel back here. Whatever that event was, be it the Super Bowl or something else. And Nickel B got taken off the bill. But instead of bitching about it, Nickelback made this video that I'm sure you could still easily find on YouTube. Where they had a like a team meeting with their PR and everything, and they're all like, alright guys, we've gotta figure it out. And they had a chart. They're like, why do people hate Nickelback so much? And they were coming up with all these ideas of why that could be. And it was like, they were definitely having a laugh at themselves and not taking it too seriously. And that kind showed that like, all right, these guys are pretty cool. So I've long been a, I wouldn't say fan, but an admirer of a lot of the aspects of that group.

justin 26:41

I think a lot. It's funny because there's been this re renaissance of these bands from around that time that are making a big comeback and like George said, we went to see Creed. that last year or is it this year? I don't know.

George Milton 26:54

last year.

justin 26:55

It was last year.

George Milton 26:55

been a

justin 26:56

And it was amazing. Like you were just like, let's fucking go. Like this was everything. And so you you forget, especially like Nickelback. I missed that. I'm sad next time. I'm definitely coming to the Nickelback show, but I've had a couple friends who've gone and they were just like. Dude, you forget how many bangers they have. And if you look back at the time of when they were on, yeah, they were oh, this is pop Rocky. Like it's not real. It's I, whatever they're saying. But they were so dominant in how many hits they had off of every record. Like back to back. Remember

Brent 27:29

Oh yeah.

justin 27:30

and all that stuff. They were just everything. They had Spider-Man theme songs. They like, you don't get that if you suck.

Brent 27:37

No, and it's really funny how some of the, you mentioned that, they are having a big renaissance right now for bands like that. And as someone that takes requests for a living, it's funny to see how much shit they used to get and now how hungry people are for it because. I hire by Creed in particular, as a real kind of divisional money maker song because I could just say to the crowd, Hey, I got$20 to play this song, and if you don't like it 21 or more, we'll stop this creed song for something else.

George Milton 28:10

whore.

Brent 28:11

Absolutely. But but it was so easy that there would all, you could barely ever even make it to the chorus before someone was running up there oh, shut this shit down, and wouldn't want to hear any more of Creed. And now that wouldn't work at all. Because just everybody wants to hear it. And it's one of the songs that you do that on any given night and it's one of the loudest everybody's gonna sing together. Not just that one, but really any of the Creed songs from that area, it's pretty funny how that will come back around.

justin 28:37

Let's go.

George Milton 28:38

is underrated, right?

justin 28:39

Yes. Nickelback I feel like

Brent 28:42

Yeah.

justin 28:42

underrated.

George Milton 28:43

Do you know who played in Austin a couple of weeks ago that same group was like tried to go to, was Buck Cherry?

justin 28:50

Oh.

George Milton 28:51

I was outta town. And Justin, I think you were outta town at the same time. I was in Boston and you were in Aruba. And Brent probably just didn't go, but it was like last weekend, buck Cherry played around here and a couple of my friends went and they said that it was a fucking awesome show. And I'm also wasn't a Buck Cherry fan, like they had the one stripper song.

justin 29:13

Yeah.

George Milton 29:14

other than that, I don't really know much buck cherry stuff, but apparently they put on a really incredible show.

justin 29:19

But it's like all these bands that are real bands like that play their instruments live. They come back around and they have this staying power that they can still keep playing and they're playing music, right? Like feel

Brent 29:30

yeah, look at Frankie Val.

justin 29:31

the, yeah, you're seeing a lot of these real bands come back around and there's, they're still relevant to people and you're like, oh yeah.'cause music, I feel like more than almost anything can put you back into a memory or a time in your life and it's oh, that is awesome. That was an awesome time in my life. That was great. I remember this. We were getting drunk on the back of our truck by the lake, whatever it is. But that sort of idea is music can take you to places.

George Milton 29:56

on the back of our truck

justin 29:57

Yeah.

George Milton 29:58

but down by a lake and it was just like the song said

justin 30:01

Yeah, dog. It was like I was in Alabama and we were just doing it.

George Milton 30:06

Yeah.

justin 30:07

But yes, that is that is the, our segment this week. Three artists, totally different spheres and just honor of ACL.

George Milton 30:17

I like it. Hey, great job. Who do you wanna, who do you want to kick

justin 30:21

Let's see. Let me go, let me roll my imaginary dice in my head and we're gonna go with the person who has the best mustache in this group,

Brent 30:30

Thanks, man. I don't have it, I don't have the beard trimmed off right now, but I do appreciate that. So I guess the segment I'm gonna go.

George Milton 30:37

have a, I have the mustache. He's talking about me. Brent,

Brent 30:41

Oh, dude, I didn't, I barely noticed it. Yeah, it's there. Okay. Yeah.

George Milton 30:44

look at, hold on. Lemme get it in the light. Better. Can you see it

justin 30:47

Yeah, it's, look, if you put milk on it, a cat could lick it off, but it's still like it's a signature look.

Brent 30:52

Ooh.

George Milton 30:53

against the mic. So you guys, is that coming

Brent 30:56

No, that sound cancellation is too good.

justin 30:59

we need some As SMR on

Brent 31:00

Yeah. We'll have to do some Foley later on.

George Milton 31:02

Let me just look in the library for mustache, lightly grazing a microphone.

Brent 31:07

Yeah.

George Milton 31:09

Oh wow. I just got reported to the police. It says. I'm gonna do my one and only in favorite segment. Give advice to random people on the internet which. was reading, the ones I was reading through, I was like, man, there's just a lot of young people asking for advice. And I think it's funny to give somebody who's 20 on a stupid situation. So we could maybe rename the segment give teenagers advice. Also, I should probably just legal reasons, like specify that please don't take our advice. we're not gonna, we're not gonna pay damages if you take our advice. These are jokes. For the most part,

Brent 31:50

Yeah, unless you can't already tell that they're jokes, then go for it,

justin 31:54

i'm a licensed bullshit. Artists. So yeah, I would not,

George Milton 31:58

unlicensed. I've been doing bullshit without a license this whole time, which I just realized, which, when you said that there's a license. So weird.

Brent 32:07

Yeah.

justin 32:08

On the internet these days.

George Milton 32:10

Here we go. Just keeping in mind, everybody's still got Justin's got two vetoes and Brent saw one. Veto, parents keep eating my meal prep. I 21 m. Work, a physically demanding job that leaves me tired at the end of the day. Most of the time I fall asleep as soon as I get home because my mom goes to bed around 8:00 PM I'm not allowed to cook past 7 45 because shes says the smell of food keeps her up. So I've tried doing meal prep on Sundays, but by the time I get home on Monday, my parents have eaten one plate each, and by the time Tuesday rolls around, I don't have any of my meals left. I have tried making more to compensate, but it's the same. Even talking to them hasn't helped. They claim. That food prepared more than two days in advance is bad for your health. I asked when my mom makes lunch for her and my dad, if she can set some aside for me to take to work the next day, but it never happens. Eating out is getting expenses expensive with me not having much left after giving 60% of every paycheck to my parents due to my dad being out of work since January. They keep getting on my case for not saving money and wasting it on takeout, but they're not leaving me with much of a choice. What do I do?

Brent 33:22

So look,

justin 33:22

out, move.

Brent 33:24

that's, thank you. I was gonna say that I, I.

George Milton 33:27

moving out Billy Joel.

Brent 33:29

I, I feel like, okay, obviously that's a tough situation there. I'm sure there's more under the hood. Regarding the parents that it's not, that saying, oh, just move out. Yeah, sure, that sounds simple enough. And practically speaking, yeah that's the easy thing. If you're giving 60% of your paycheck, give that to rent instead, and then you got your own place and you don't have to have people taking your freaking food. But I'm sure there's something more complicated there. And if that's the case and you didn't bring it up, then why are you making this fucking post Move out is the only answer to this question, because we don't have any other information.

George Milton 34:00

I wish we had the rights to moving out by Billy Joel and we could play it right here.

Brent 34:04

Oh, that'd be expensive though, wouldn't it? We couldn't do that.

justin 34:06

do it in if we did karaoke version, would that count?

George Milton 34:09

Yeah, I don't know. I think that we'd still have to pay royalties for it.

justin 34:14

Side note,

George Milton 34:14

royalties.

justin 34:15

just did

Brent 34:17

know what? I can mouth the little horn.

justin 34:19

We did karaoke, and it was like someone requested for me to sing, start the Fire by Billy Joel. There's a lot of words in that damn song, let me tell you.

George Milton 34:30

You don't

justin 34:30

Nope.

George Milton 34:30

most of them, and nobody

justin 34:32

there nobody did. There's a lot of names. It's a lot of names and I had to sing a lot of names and I was on a lot of alcohol and it was

Brent 34:38

On.

George Milton 34:40

Wow.

Brent 34:40

I hate being on alcohol and having a hard job to do.

justin 34:43

a lot of painkillers on alcohol.

George Milton 34:45

man, I was on alcohol.

justin 34:47

I was on alcohol. Back to the conversation at hand, I think, say, did this person say they're giving 60% of their

Brent 34:54

That's what he said.

George Milton 34:54

Yeah. 60% of their paycheck to their parents. So like the situation that they're in here is that they are a caretaker. They're like, when I moved out, when I was like 17. And I was never in that position where I was like at home and I was paying rent at my parents' house.

Brent 35:10

Same.

George Milton 35:11

But I know a lot of people who have been in this position where it's like at some point all everybody's working you're an adult. Like you're in your twenties and at some point your twenties, you're an adult. I guess most people were. Would assume that you are. So it would make sense if you're like, Hey, I'm living with my parents as an extended, this is like an extended plan. Then at some point you're kicking in with like food and rent and things like that. But it sounds like this 21-year-old is, his dad's outta work, which, yeah, there's probably a lot more that we don't know. But do

Brent 35:45

they didn't post that

George Milton 35:46

I would be pissed if my roommate was eating my food

Brent 35:50

Sure.

justin 35:50

happening, right?

Brent 35:52

Yeah. That's exactly what's happening.

George Milton 35:53

exactly what's happening is like his roommates are eating his food and then they're like, please don't make food past 8:00 PM Which is too, it's too early to start shutting down the house.

Brent 36:04

Yes.

George Milton 36:04

early to be like, you can't do basic things like, please don't use the bathroom after seven. Anybody? What? Yeah, it makes me feel uncomfortable. I can't really get comfortable if somebody's using the bathroom after seven.

justin 36:18

You always yell at me about that when I come over, so it's. Weird. I have to go out in the bushes.

George Milton 36:23

first of all, nobody invited you over and second of all, you go straight to the bathroom like you don't even say hi. Just walk in the door

justin 36:30

When you gotta go, you gotta go.

George Milton 36:31

sometimes I'm in there and you don't seem to care.

justin 36:35

Sharing means caring George, sharing means caring. But I think this is what's funny about this. This is, it's, I guess from our generation, everyone used to leave the house and move out at 18 or you're out down and now quite normal and expected that everyone's living. Together for Longers because people can't afford to live on their own or pay rent or get the rent or get the job, whatever it is. Like I even have friends in LA he was just telling me. Yeah, I just moved back in. My parents, my sister lives there and he's like in his thirties and like the whole family's under one roof again, and it's like having roommates. If you ever lived with a roommate, sometimes. It doesn't matter if it's family or not. It's, it gets tricky with the food thing because you're like, did you eat my yogurt? Damnit, why'd you eat my yogurt? So yeah, you gotta just either cook bigger bunch of the food or get a lock and put it on that fridge and say not today, Satan.

George Milton 37:31

Oh

Brent 37:32

yeah. I guess the. The path of least resistance is maybe just get your own mini fridge for the room, right? Just,

George Milton 37:38

a

justin 37:38

that's a good idea.

George Milton 37:39

Yeah, get a mini fridge for your room with a lock on it.

Brent 37:42

yep.

George Milton 37:42

I feel like that's

Brent 37:43

Fuck'em.

George Milton 37:45

yeah, I feel like you could probably make an argument for a mini fridge might be cheaper. Even if you're paying 60% of the bills, a mini fridge is probably cheaper than moving out. Get yourself a mini fridge

justin 37:54

Yeah,

George Milton 37:55

on it.

justin 37:56

that sounds good.

George Milton 37:58

Did you guys ever have like roommates who ate your food that you had to

Brent 38:01

yes.

George Milton 38:01

Yeah.

Brent 38:03

Yeah. And the funniest thing about it was this roommate that I had that would do it would just always have. The lamest excuses whenever it would happen. And whenever I say, I don't even mean that they they were ano, it wasn't anything like, I'd be like, bro, did you eat my leftovers that were in the fridge that I left in there from last night? And he'd be like yeah, I was just sitting in there.

George Milton 38:24

That's what Do.

Brent 38:25

what they do.

George Milton 38:27

He was just sitting in there looking at me, man.

Brent 38:30

Yeah.

justin 38:31

I used the one time I had roommates that wasn't like a girlfriend or something, they. They'd have friends over or something when you weren't home and they'd drink your alcohol or they'd take your stuff and you're like, mother, and then they wouldn't replace it. And you'd be like, come on man. You can't have your friends drinking my stuff and do eating my stuff and not replace it. on.

George Milton 38:51

My there, there was one of my friends when I was in high school. Who got somehow my mom's like movie gallery card number. Like he made a copy of I don't know. He had, he would check out movies on my mom's movie gallery account. Which, and it was like we would have, and I ended up having to pay all these late fees, but we would have like Jurassic Park two that was just like overdue by a year. And it was like, what do you even check that out? And Joe would be like, oh yeah, I still have that. I need to return it. It's okay it's a hundred dollars worth of late fees anyway.

justin 39:28

thanks Dick.

George Milton 39:29

get a mini fridge.

justin 39:31

Get a

Brent 39:31

That's what we're saying.

George Milton 39:32

Speaking of getting a mini fridge, why don't we take a short break and get a word from our sponsors who are so gracious to sponsor

Brent 39:40

I love them.

George Milton 39:41

I love them too. See you guys in a minute. Go take a pee. Go take a pee. Welcome back everybody. I hope you enjoyed however many ads there were and I hope you appreciate capitalism. I think we were doing we were doing advice, we were doing my segment. I'm gonna do one more advice and then I'm gonna kick it to Brent. No surprises there. Brent's last in line today. Here's one more. I'm saying that guys we're doing the theme. I've got a bunch of the, I've got a bunch of these that I saved, but I've decided that today's theme is gonna be us giving financial advice to people

Brent 40:18

All right. Cool.

George Milton 40:18

other people who are mooching off of them. Yeah. Here's here it is. My girlfriend hasn't paid me back her half of a trip we took back in August. Any advice? I bet you guys probably already know the right answer to this one, but I'm gonna continue anyway. We've been together for eight months. She's 20, I'm 25. I originally paid for our plane tickets, hotel, and a car rental back in July. The trip was at the end of August. She asked if I would spot the money for her and that she would pay me back later, and I agreed mainly because she had to pay for her college tuition before the school year started. she still hasn't paid me a dollar. A few weeks ago, I sent her a list of the trip expenses and she agreed to pay me her half, which is$650. said she would pay me back soon. A few days ago she sent a text saying that she's considering buying a$1,500 furry costume and she's paying off school just fine. I'm really under unsure how to feel about this. I feel honestly irritated as shit and the resentment is building. okay. He go, he goes on to talk about, should I break up with her$650? A lot is a lot of money. I'm not asking for reassurance or validation. I just want some advice being in this situation blah, blah, blah. I'd consider going to small claims court over this, but I don't want to be petty and she's genuinely sweet and caring Girl. I don't want to hurt her.

justin 41:38

Just

Brent 41:38

was gonna say that's the, that's really where you broke the first rule.

George Milton 41:41

Yes.

Brent 41:42

one, don't date a furry. That's step one.

George Milton 41:45

Whoa.

justin 41:45

feel like that's good life. I feel like that's good life lessons.

George Milton 41:48

Let's back up. back up. Why? not data furry?

Brent 41:52

No, I

George Milton 41:53

just

Brent 41:53

have whatever hobbies, one, one step. You wanna be a furry, and, and then maybe date other ones of those. But if you're like, a person that is a reasonable, like adjusted adult. Then there's probably just gonna be like a maturity level mismatch. I, I'm under the opinion that these furries don't really desire to grapple with, like reality. They want to build a fantasy world and just live there, and hey, whatever. But if you're a normal person, stay away from that.

George Milton 42:27

I saying I, I furry's, I'm pro furry

Brent 42:31

Okay.

George Milton 42:31

is all I'm saying.

Brent 42:32

And.

George Milton 42:33

I will say, I will admit that the reason that I picked this question is because of how casually he dropped that in there.

justin 42:39

Yeah, you. Start loaning money to a girlfriend and then she wants to buy a furry costume for$1,500. You

Brent 42:46

Yep.

justin 42:46

problems than just getting$650 back.

George Milton 42:50

be 15 to a hundred dollars for anything, but I would say that's she agreed to pay you back and now she's putting what I would call a frivolous expense. I as pro furry

Brent 42:58

Still Frivol.

George Milton 42:59

I don't think that buying. I think that this is a little frivolous of an expense to be like, Hey, I'm musician, but like Brent, if I owed you, if I owed you like$500, and I was like, man, I'm gonna pay it back. And then you found out that I just bought a new bass guitar or something, you'd be like, I thought like you owe me$500.

Brent 43:21

Yeah, that's the thing. So in my opinion. Obviously if she said up front she was gonna do it, didn't do it, then reached another agreement, okay? And then still didn't do it. Dude you're not, she's not just gonna like happily give it back to you and everything's gonna go on. You're either gonna kiss a goodbye. Yeah. And yes, you should break up regardless, because obviously that's just unless you're just cool with being taken advantage of repeatedly, if you want it to keep happening, then don't break up. Just let it go, whatever. But if you don't wanna keep being taken advantage of, you gotta break up. And then it's either just, is it worth it to you to recover$650? To know that she will forever hate you, as well as anybody that has a happy opinion of her will also hate you. So if that's worth 650 bucks to you, I don't know your financial status. Hey, I get it. If the, if you need the money, then take her to small claims court, you'll probably win out. If you text her and she's got a text saying that she'll pay it, then a judge will probably just award that to you. But she's gonna hate you.

justin 44:22

But what's funny, you can't, if you take someone in small claims court and they'll rule in your favor, like

Brent 44:29

Absolutely true.

justin 44:29

get the money ever from them. So it's a waste of time, waste of money. Either come out and say to her like, yo. had this deal, you need to take care of this. If not, then just break up with her and just be done with it and eat it and just move on.

George Milton 44:45

Speed

justin 44:45

She is gonna go to a furry convention and have a good time and you're just gonna be wondering where your money is. It went into a costume that she's banging somebody else with. Just live with it.

George Milton 44:56

almost three times the amount of money that, that she owes him.

justin 45:01

I did know some, I knew this producer in LA one time, and he comes up, he like, we're sitting around and he is he's guys, I don't know what to do. I just found out, like my stepson came to me the other day and was like I'm a furry. And he was like, I didn't know what to say in that moment. I was like, dog I don't know. I don't know how to help you.

George Milton 45:22

to say in that moment with anybody. It wouldn't matter if somebody came to me and was like, Hey, I'm a furry. I would be I would just be like, why are you telling me this?

justin 45:30

This is not kink shaming. It's more of if you're in a soft Cool, cool, cool. It's more of a logistical, like would be so hot and like sweating and just like how do you function on that

Brent 45:42

Yeah let me add in and just say that for clarity. I'm actually doing the opposite. I'm if they're specifically in it for a kink side of it, Hey, whatever. I'm a live and let live kind of guy when it comes to whatever kinks. As long as you're not hurting another individual and things are consensual, go do what you want to do. I don't give a shit. I'm more taken aback by the people that. Aren't into it for the kink side of it that want to go in public and frolic in the grass and just be in this world like that. It's not even a sexual thing for them. That's weirder to me than someone that's in it for the K sexual. I'm not kink shaming. I'M is lifestyle shaming in this case.

George Milton 46:26

Wow. Damn man. That's even bigger. It feels even bigger. Like I'm shaming you for who you are, not what you like

Brent 46:32

Yeah. That. Yes, that's what I'm saying. You get it? Yeah.

George Milton 46:35

Damn. I'm actually like, I, if I had. It's getting close to Halloween and I'm notoriously bad about Erin asks me for months, am I getting a costume? And I'm like, yeah, of course.'cause I wanna go with her as another costume, but I just never can get my shit together and do it. It's such a, it's such a easy lift. For the most part, and I just am bad at doing it and I need to like right after this, right after we do this, go

justin 46:59

Go get

Brent 47:00

Yeah.

George Milton 47:00

for,

justin 47:00

go get a furry costume. I think that's what we've come out of this.

George Milton 47:03

like that, like I am into, I'm into the let's have a party where we all dressed as hobbit

Brent 47:09

No. Again,

George Milton 47:10

our favorite

Brent 47:11

I'm okay for an event. I just think it's strange this if, because there are some people that don't want to exist in their normal life. They wanna go about all day, every day in a fucking huge. Costume that they're overheating inside of and have to go through all sorts of impracticalities just so they don't have to grapple with normal life. And for anybody that's in the furry world that's listening to this. I'm sorry. I think you're weird. Don't think too much of it. I'm just a dude with an opinion, but it's weird. It's weird.

justin 47:43

But that's what's, did you see that video as like some dude, he identifies as

Brent 47:48

that's what I'm saying is weird people.

justin 47:49

of those shit, and then he got mauled to

Brent 47:52

No, I didn't know about that.

justin 47:54

and you're like, yeah, I could've. It just happened recently. I was like, I could've, is this the new Darwin survival of the fittest? It's like people that take selfies in a crosswalk

Brent 48:03

Yeah. Yeah.

justin 48:04

across the street, it's yeah,

George Milton 48:05

brings us to our next question. I identify as a lion. Should I or should I not live with the other lions? No, I'm just kidding. What are we gonna tell this guy to do? Who is, because I think the guy who, his girlfriend hasn't

Brent 48:19

Yeah, break up and kiss your money. Goodbye. That's my advice.

George Milton 48:22

on a,

justin 48:23

Yeah, I think that's a good idea.

George Milton 48:25

your money goodbye. I think if you go on a vacation. If you go on a vacation with somebody you're dating and they aren't pay, they don't pay for the vacation in real time. This

Brent 48:35

Yep.

George Milton 48:36

bad, you're in a bad situation now. And if it if somebody, like I would say, if somebody if you're dating somebody and they do come through on a, after the vacation repayment, you just marry

Brent 48:46

Ha.

George Milton 48:46

right then. That's, you know what I mean? Like you found

Brent 48:50

Even if there's tons of red flags, the quick repayment of a debt.

George Milton 48:54

forget about

Brent 48:55

Yeah. The quick repayment of a debt is the ultimate green flag. That, that completely shadows.

George Milton 48:59

'cause we're Hey America,

Brent 49:02

right.

George Milton 49:03

Am I right

justin 49:04

America.

Brent 49:04

yourself a lannister, someone that always pays their debts, that's all that really matters in life.

George Milton 49:09

find yourself a motherfucking lannister, you know what I'm saying? Not motherfucking,

Brent 49:14

fucking.

George Milton 49:15

sister, yeah. I. Okay, that was that was, give advice to random strangers on the internet or give advice to teenagers on the internet. Ba, I'm gonna throw it over to, I'm gonna throw it over to you, Brent.

Brent 49:28

So I've, as you may remember, have rallied a few times that I'd like to get the game of a movie reference challenge going where we name a somewhat obscure movie reference that I'm hoping will evade. Both of your radars by a little bit, but that you would've seen before. And that through a 20 question style narrowing down, we can see who can break the case first,

George Milton 49:55

Man, I'm gonna, I remember being so bad at this.

Brent 49:59

but we could also veto that and go straight to the, more classic tried and proven.

George Milton 50:05

I want

justin 50:05

No,

George Milton 50:06

I want

justin 50:06

I want to go. Let's go.

George Milton 50:07

Before I get

Brent 50:09

This one I felt like it might be easy if I tried to do an impression of it while listing it, but while reading the, and just reciting the line in a monotone voice, I think might challenge the di difficulty just a little bit, especially through recent power of suggestion. The quote being. You sit on a throne of lies.

justin 50:36

Oh, I know that one. Is no'cause now

George Milton 50:40

Will

justin 50:41

is it, is

Brent 50:41

Okay. So that was the, yeah. Yeah. I was hoping that the recent Game of Thrones suggestion might have thrown it off a little bit, but yeah, that's so another one that I thought might be pretty easy, and we're got, we gotta find one that'll be just enough off of the the beaten path here. But how about this one? We're gonna need a bigger slingshot.

justin 51:01

Ooh, you had me for a second. I was like, are we going Jaws? And then it was like slingshot.

George Milton 51:06

Are we yes or no questions?

Brent 51:07

It is a live action movie. Yes.

George Milton 51:12

Okay. Does it does it

Brent 51:16

Does not have Chris Pratt, and I'm glad that we've at least made it to a couple questions that, that it hasn't been broken down yet. But yeah. So I would recommend though that if you don't know maybe broader questions than does it have Chris Pratt.

George Milton 51:28

Okay.

justin 51:28

Is it a kid's

Brent 51:29

I think that it's harder to answer yes or no. I'll give you a little bit more detail and say, I think it was basically shot as a kid's movie but ultimately transcends any age groups.

justin 51:41

Is it from

Brent 51:43

No.

justin 51:43

two thousands?

George Milton 51:48

Okay.

justin 51:48

Is it from

Brent 51:49

Yes.

justin 51:49

nineties?

George Milton 51:52

Yes, it's from the nineties. It's live action kind of a kid's movie.

Brent 51:57

It is not a Christmas movie.

George Milton 52:01

Okay. I feel like that cuts the list in half.

Brent 52:04

There you go.

George Milton 52:04

the movies were Christmas movies.

justin 52:07

for sure.

Brent 52:08

Yeah. And because it's not a Christmas movie, you can also just assume that there probably wasn't a Macaulay in it.

justin 52:16

Is it a male lead actor? Is he Today?

Brent 52:27

no. In fact, I would say that even if I dropped his name you wouldn't recognize it probably. And I can't do that because I don't know it either.

George Milton 52:40

oh damn. So

justin 52:42

Awesome.

Brent 52:43

There you go. I've, yeah I'm gonna I'll even start dropping some extra hints to help lull along the path as we, determine how far off of it we are.

George Milton 52:54

okay. It, so hold on. Bigger Slingshot. Is it a, did we ask, did we go

Brent 53:02

It's definitely a comedy. Yeah.

George Milton 53:06

Okay, we're gonna need a bigger Slingshot is like either a

Brent 53:09

I'll also say this, it's not even, it's not a movie that's like off the beaten path, like we're talking about like an absolute classic one that it's highly unlikely that, yeah. That anybody our age group has not seen.

justin 53:25

Is it a

Brent 53:28

I would say that.

George Milton 53:32

Okay.

justin 53:33

Is it

Brent 53:34

Yeah,

justin 53:35

movie?

George Milton 53:37

Oh,

Brent 53:37

it is not,

George Milton 53:38

of their own?

Brent 53:39

why would they want to slingshot'em?

George Milton 53:41

Dang.

Brent 53:42

It does.

justin 53:43

in it?

George Milton 53:45

Oh, is it Air Budd? No, wait, that's not baseball.

Brent 53:48

sandlot is the correct question. Yeah.

George Milton 53:52

wow.

Brent 53:53

so there we go.

justin 53:55

Who's your daddy now, George.

Brent 53:57

Yeah. Can either of you guys name the lead actor from the Sandlot? Because I know I sure can't.

George Milton 54:03

from the Sandlot?

justin 54:05

Any of the

Brent 54:05

No, I would consider Smalls the lead and he's definitely the main character. But

justin 54:09

true. you know what's funny? Those guys those guys show up a lot at Dodgers Shout out to my Dodgers, who just beat the Phillies in the first game of the NLDS.

George Milton 54:20

Gang

justin 54:20

They like, sh they show up as they'll do movie nights at Dodger Stadium or the crew will just show up.

Brent 54:25

Yeah the curly redheaded kid. I saw a recent little like TikTok video of him where he just starts off looking in the camera the bowling one. He's you're either, they say you're either good at bowling or you're good at sex, and he turns around and bowls a strike and looks at the camera like. Anyway. There was the guess the movie line. At any point in the thing, we don't even have to do it today, but whenever the next time it's beckoned I am queued up for the two lies and a gig game. But we can do that at a, whoever else would like to take a run at a segment here.

justin 55:00

Two lives and a gig. So let's go. Let's do two lives and a gig. I love some.

George Milton 55:05

a gig. I veto.

Brent 55:07

George uses a veto and tosses it back. Alright.

George Milton 55:10

I'm using

Brent 55:10

To anybody that's just joining us, two lies in a gig is a game where I recant some experiences from my time that I, as I work full time, as a live entertainer and a piano bar. And all of these thank you George. And all of these are definitely inspired by real events. Only two of these will be twisted in a way so as to make them not ultimately true. These two guys, George and Justin will be guessing. Which one is the act? Actual occurrence that is recited exactly as it happened. So today I got three stories once again. We're gonna call, the first story is gonna be titled Accidental Full Frontal. This is one of the things that happens on a pretty common trope out of any piano bar that guys will do a, some sort of a bit where you just simply get a guy to take his shirt off on stage, and the thing that's always great about this is you really find from the reaction of a crowd, it doesn't matter. How good of shape someone's in. And this should give guys confidence out there. Like you can have someone with a ripped body, they're gonna get applause from the crowd. But you can have someone with the most average dad bod with just a little bit of love handles. He takes his shirt off, swirls it over his head. People go nuts. You can have a morbidly obese person up there on stage. They'll get the biggest reaction. All it doesn't matter, like a crowd. Just loves a guy. Taking his shirt off. It's always a hit. We were doing this bachelor on stage one time, and he was quite a heavy guy that was up on stage and we were doing it to the tune of I'm Too Sexy by Wright said Fred. And in the actual song, it starts off with the very first thing he says, I'm too sexy for my shirt. But in the bit version of it. We're gonna leave that for like the big punchline for the thing. So we'll start off I'm too sexy for my shoe too, se, and just get him to take his shoe off and do whatever his head. But we go and get to the big final punchline on this. Say, Hey, all right, here comes the big one. Everybody let's cheer on. Like I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my, and the guy throws his shirt off and he's a bigger guy. Starts sw, swirling it over his head, like a lasso. The crowd goes nuts. But in all of his movement. The thing that I've noticed about maybe some larger people is that belts don't necessarily work the same. If you don't have the, as strong of a hip structure there, they're more friction based. So if you lose that last little bit of like where it is, then the pants just suddenly and quickly give way. It's not like a slow, drop that they're gonna be able to feel. So he. Loses the grip on the pants and the pants hit the floor. And old boy is not wearing any undies that night. So he's standing on the stage and he quickly recovers. But there was a solid second and a half of a full frontal nudity there at Pete's dueling piano bar on a busy weekend night. Story number two. Overzealous groom cake, this sort of, or bridal cake. It was the groom, overzealous groom with a cake, we should say happened at one of the weddings and wasn't really that big of a deal, but it was, you wanna see a wedding with a happy bride and groom, having a good time. And if you do enough of these things you find that's not always the case. Sometimes bride and groom get a little upset with each other over the night. This was one where they did the cake cutting and they wanted to do it in between, like a set, like they interjected in the set. They wanted to do it halfway through our show. They go and do the cake cutting for this thing. They do the feeding each other, and then the groom, he's a little on the tipsy side and gets overzealous with feeding her, smashes it all over her face. She, for a moment, tries to laugh it off, but then he keeps going. She drops the humor and kind of leaves the outdoor area. We are went back in the inside spot and we just, we never saw the bride again for the next like hour and a half of the night that we played. So I assume they weren't too happy with each other. Then the last thing we'll call endless Jude, where one time at the club on a busy weekend night, we were humming along and suddenly out of nowhere, all of the power on stage dies. Interesting. Like not power anywhere else, which has happened before. Whenever a breaker will flip, if we're just like, it's not. Very reliable power. We've had it since the, it's, I think it was wired up in like the twenties, 1920s. That is. We we're humming along and then suddenly all the power drops out and I'm the guy that. Tends to be called upon to in the panic situations of fixing whatever went wrong. So I run to the back and I'm checking out all the breakers, and they're all fine. And during the meantime, Mike Atkins gets in one of the other entertainers there, just gets a tambourine. And they were doing, Hey Jude, whenever it went down. So they just get the crowd into the nah. Which is gonna be working fine, but as I said, the breaker wasn't flipped. So it's taken us a while to get this thing back on. And this turned into we didn't exactly time it, but based on like when the set times were falling. Best approximation. This was a 12 minute, 12 minute rendition of people seeing na nah. Hey, Jude. I would've thought they would've given up at some point, but for the full time until we got the power back on, which turned out to be the power strip itself, that the thing was plugged into, it had something die inside of it. So we had power strip into the wall, into the plug, into the, anyway, but one of those pieces of the chain died and couldn't figure out what it was. 12 minutes of, Hey Jude, in chorus with the majority of the crowd singing. So once again, we have accidental full frontal over zealous groom or endless Jude. Which one is the real? Which one is the real Unadultered story?

George Milton 1:00:59

in. I feel like I've got two points. I'm gonna let, I'm gonna let Justin lock in

Brent 1:01:05

You there on, were you there on one of these nights? George. Okay.

George Milton 1:01:09

No,

Brent 1:01:10

worry about that story, that there might be one of these occurrences that George Milton happened to be present for.

George Milton 1:01:15

I've seen some, I've seen some

Brent 1:01:18

Sure.

George Milton 1:01:18

all three of these things.

justin 1:01:22

You know what's funny is like we were literally at this, round Rock had a art fair yesterday. I took the kids and there was this lady sitting in this table while we're eating food. And I look over at my oldest and I look, I was like, Baie, did you see that? And this lady like is sitting there and her pants are like all the way down her butt crack and he is I know Dad, it's cracking me up. And I was like, oh my gosh, first. That's amazing. said it. Yeah, he's and I was like, that's a good line. He's getting his comedy time and for a 10-year-old he's learning. But yeah, they crack full out. I was like, you could wipe your ass right now. That's how far of a crack was out. So I could see that happening. The electrical ones, I feel like you've had some electrical things, some stories that you've

Brent 1:02:03

You're probably, yeah you're probably recanting the fire alarm thing. And that actually happened in Houston.

justin 1:02:09

have the fire

Brent 1:02:09

So that's not, that's a different room altogether in this case.

justin 1:02:13

Oh, I got you.

George Milton 1:02:14

better, better electricity in that room.

justin 1:02:16

but I feel like I've seen this bride stuff happen before'cause the grooms are become drunk. Like anytime these dudes

Brent 1:02:23

And then they think they're funny, right?

justin 1:02:24

just like, what are you doing? They think they're funny and it's like it always goes wrong. Like I've literally worked a wedding back in the day, like catering when I was younger and this guy was so hammered before the wedding. And then they go to do the first dance and he like falls over and takes her down and for the, and he was, she was pregnant as well, so it was like this thing and it was just like, are a sloppy mess. so like I feel like I buy that.

George Milton 1:02:51

he was drinking for two, so

justin 1:02:53

He was drinking for two. Yeah, he was. He was doing his work for three. So I'm gonna go that one. I'm gonna go B.

George Milton 1:03:00

That was accidental. Full frontal.

justin 1:03:02

No, that was

Brent 1:03:03

Yeah, over groom.

George Milton 1:03:04

Oh, angry Bright. Yeah. Force.

justin 1:03:06

Yeah. Over Z's groom.

George Milton 1:03:08

man, I'm gonna lock in on. On endless Jude, and that's just because I know Mike Atkins and it just feels like something that he would do for 12 minutes. I, it just feels, it just, that just feels right. If it's not, if that's not the true one, then I feel like you've nailed the essence of

Brent 1:03:26

Yeah. I'll say this is a, situation in a week where the, no that's not the case. The point again, but I think that the fact that George has more of a familiarity with some of the characters in these stories gives him a started advantage here. It's true. The endless Jude is the actual story. You've never heard it go on for so long in your life, and yeah, you would think that over that amount of time. Any, anything else would've happened, like just any, anything, but no, it was like, yeah, almost like a full quarter hour worth of just nah. I would've left if I was one of the customers just because I would've been sick of hearing that for 12 fucking minutes. But no, they just kept that shit rolling.

George Milton 1:04:08

I feel like I've

justin 1:04:09

George, you are the champion at this game, and I suck.

George Milton 1:04:12

I do have a, I have a, I have an unfair advantage, like even if I don't know the stories, I do know some of the characters and I feel like I, I feel like I have a sense for what's more likely. So it is, I do have a bit of a bit of an edge. I also, I've played with Mike Atkins several times where like at the end of the night we'll

Brent 1:04:32

do exactly that.

George Milton 1:04:33

power or whatever, and then two minutes later, he'll just be like nah. And people will start, like the drunk people, the 2:00 AM drunk. People are just like waiting for somebody to go

Brent 1:04:42

and I'll also, as I have recapped the other ones now from the past, I'll also say that, yeah, the overzealous groom thing. That one really just total bullshit. I've never even seen anything to that degree in person. Those, it just, I knew that's the ki type of shit that I've seen plenty of internet videos of. Yeah, it's not real enough. The accidental full frontal that the only thing that wasn't real is that he was not wearing underwear. The, there was a guy that had boxer briefs on, but that very much did happen with a larger guy on right side. Fred swirled his shirt over his head and then just, and one quick, there was. I, there was not, even if you had a one of those fast motion cameras, you couldn't have caught the time it took for his pants to drop. And it, it was just like out of nowhere, just blo and then they were on the ground. And that made, but he took it in stride. He wasn't, he didn't seem embarrassed. He was just like, everybody just laughed about it and it was like, oh, my boxers, whatever. It was funny.

George Milton 1:05:37

Would be

justin 1:05:38

it.

George Milton 1:05:38

if somebody just

Brent 1:05:39

I wouldn't it.

George Milton 1:05:39

on stage

justin 1:05:42

And it was George.

George Milton 1:05:43

and it was George. Can I do a couple of movie

Brent 1:05:48

Oh that, that was ultimately what I really wanted was to have it as more of a, everybody brings their quote in and then each of us will, do what we just did. So I'd love that. I.

George Milton 1:06:00

Alright, if it's not getting vetoed, I just have a couple, I'm wondering if you guys can call out quickly. I'm not gonna do the voice'cause I feel like that would just be the over the top. But I'm not locked in here with you. You are locked in here with me.

Brent 1:06:17

Okay I've got one guess and I don't know if it's right. Would that be from a Bronx Tale? No.

George Milton 1:06:24

Nope. No, I'll do the, okay,

Brent 1:06:26

Oh, no. Wait. I think I know now I have my second guess already.

George Milton 1:06:29

I'm not

Brent 1:06:30

Yeah.

George Milton 1:06:30

here with you.

justin 1:06:34

Is that like saw or something like that?

Brent 1:06:36

Dark Knight?

George Milton 1:06:39

No, it's not the dark night, but

justin 1:06:40

Dark Night Rises.

George Milton 1:06:41

No, it's the same voice. It's a very similar voice and it is also in that same genre. Oh, I

Brent 1:06:48

No. Okay, fine. Then we'll have, we're gonna have to go to the actual questions then. Alright. So is this a movie that's come out within the last 15 years?

George Milton 1:06:59

Oh, just outside of that, just outside the last 15 years

justin 1:07:04

Is it a superhero movie?

George Milton 1:07:06

is a superhero movie.

Brent 1:07:08

Okay.

justin 1:07:11

Is it first Spider-Man movie?

George Milton 1:07:14

Nope. It's not

Brent 1:07:17

Is it a franchise that's still dropping new ones today?

George Milton 1:07:25

I'd say that the first one that they dropped was a pretty big one, if they dropped a pretty big one on the first one in a commercial way. It was a great movie, but I don't think that it was I think it was Pan. They, it did turn into a series they turned it into a into a series, but. not still launching new. There wasn't like a two and a three and a four and

justin 1:07:48

Why am I stuck

Brent 1:07:49

Alright. Is the actor still someone prominent today? I.

George Milton 1:07:56

It was more of a cast like a, it was more of a cast

Brent 1:08:01

Oh.

George Milton 1:08:02

It wasn't like a, there's a single, there's a single, so it was like an ensemble, superhero movie. And I will say that the character who, the name of the character who says this quote is the name of that character is based on a psychology test. That Inkblot test

justin 1:08:23

oh, RO,

Brent 1:08:24

Oh.

justin 1:08:25

that's Watchman

Brent 1:08:26

Oh,

justin 1:08:27

Rorschach.

Brent 1:08:27

you go. I've never.

justin 1:08:29

That

Brent 1:08:29

never seen that one. That's why I was having such a hard time on this, but

George Milton 1:08:33

Okay.

Brent 1:08:34

it's funny,

George Milton 1:08:35

one of

Brent 1:08:35

that's if we have any listeners at all that I'm sure most people listening to that would be just like, oh my God, how do you guys not know this? But yeah, no, I don't.

justin 1:08:45

no. That's a tough,

Brent 1:08:46

Yeah.

justin 1:08:46

pull.

George Milton 1:08:47

but when you do the voice, it does. I didn't realize that it was gonna sound exactly like the

Brent 1:08:50

I didn't even expect you to do the Batman voice. I thought it sounded li like I was thinking of it from like the same scene as like the, oh you are. I was born in the darkness molded by, I thought it was like I was picturing more like a bane voice.

justin 1:09:03

was just watching that like multiple times this week.

George Milton 1:09:07

Bain

Brent 1:09:07

It sounds exactly the same as my Winnie the Pooh voice. I don't have a different change.

justin 1:09:12

There was like this Warner Brothers channel in Aruba. They had this on tv. There's just like a, there was like a universal channel and a Warner Brothers channel and that was playing over and over again. I think I watched it multiple times at different parts of it. Yeah.

George Milton 1:09:26

movie. I just, I don't think it did well at the box office.

justin 1:09:30

here's the problem. You go it's still awesome, like it's a really awesome movie, but you go from Dark Knight, which was the best superhero movie of all time fight Me on that. But Heath Ledger was incredible and it was supposed to be the Joker again. And I think the story goes, it was supposed to be like the trial of Joker was supposed to be the third one. so they had to obviously pivot after, what happened with Heath

Brent 1:09:57

What.

justin 1:09:57

so

George Milton 1:10:00

Oh wow. tell

justin 1:10:03

don't tell'em.

George Milton 1:10:04

heart.

justin 1:10:04

Yeah. And so that's, they had to shift, which was still really cool'cause was a really awesome cat woman.

George Milton 1:10:13

I

justin 1:10:14

And not annoy you didn't like her. She wasn't as like this annoying that she was a thief and she wasn't like,

George Milton 1:10:20

ann Hathaway. I just like the Michelle Pfeiffer. Catwoman. Is the Catwoman. I know that's not the segment, but. Which Catwoman is your favorite be

Brent 1:10:29

I thought Anna Hathaway was good at it.

justin 1:10:31

say

Brent 1:10:32

Yeah,

justin 1:10:32

woman. Anne

Brent 1:10:33

would've liked to have seen her in more of it.

justin 1:10:36

up. Yes. Yes. Give us another one, George.

George Milton 1:10:43

okay. One more one more quote. And I'm not gonna do the voice on this one unless we get to unless I need to. Strange things are afoot at the Circle K.

justin 1:10:53

Bill and Ted's baby.

George Milton 1:10:54

Okay. Yeah,

justin 1:10:56

I love those. That's a great quote. Nailed it. Strange

Brent 1:11:01

How about this one? Okay.

justin 1:11:02

Circle K. By the way, circle Ks are great.

Brent 1:11:05

How about

George Milton 1:11:05

Yeah.

Brent 1:11:07

I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.

George Milton 1:11:12

Oh,

Brent 1:11:13

Alright. Gotcha.

justin 1:11:15

No,

George Milton 1:11:15

World.

justin 1:11:16

George Milton 1:11:18

That's,

justin 1:11:19

George Milton 1:11:19

frame Roger

Brent 1:11:20

There you go.

George Milton 1:11:21

George Milton 1:11:21

about. Yeah. Yeah.

justin 1:11:24

about the, here we got one. Ooh, that ex escalated quickly. Brick killed a man.

Brent 1:11:29

You.

George Milton 1:11:30

You said the character.

justin 1:11:31

That's part of the quote.

George Milton 1:11:33

Yeah, you're right. Obviously that's from Spider-Man Homecoming.

justin 1:11:37

Yes. Humming away. I'm not even mad. You ate a whole block of cheese.

George Milton 1:11:47

oh yeah, that's captain America Civil War.

justin 1:11:49

Yep. I'm in a glass cage of emotion. Milk was such a bad idea.
