SPEAKER_02

So you were looking for something to listen to and you ended up here. What's up? My name is Ethan, and I'm the host of the show. Over the past 25 years, I've had a wild group of people walk through my tattoo shop and tell me some of the craziest stories you would never hear unless you were sitting in that chair. I've invited a few of these maniacs to join me and talk about everything, anything, and nothing. Whether it's about UFOs, aliens, food, conspiracies, or whatever, you're sure to be entertained and probably get a laugh out of it. Or you're gonna think we're a bunch of nutjobs and never come back again. Either way, you're here with us now, so sit back, relax, hit cruise control, and enjoy the ride. Welcome to the Tat and Chat Podcast. I think we're live. Hey, hey! What is going on, the people of the Tat and Chat universe? I just bought a Ford Raptor. Josh just bought a Ford Raptor, and he's gotta drive all the way to Michigan to get it. So today. Who wants to go with me? Today's our uh our final episode for the season, season one, episode 15. And uh we brought Eddie back on, Eddie Randall. Hey, hey, because he's just got such an interesting story in life and crazy shit, and we want to hear, we want to hear. So, Eddie, why don't you tell us a little about what's going on here now?

SPEAKER_04

I'm alive.

SPEAKER_02

All right, he's alive. So anyway, Josh. I thought he was just hunting.

SPEAKER_04

Like I he's wearing camo. I thought he just got out of the woods.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I saw this head floating around when I pulled up and I said, wait, oh, Eddie, you're wearing camouflage. It was blending in so good with the wall. I just saw a little little head floating around it. Yeah, you know how I do it.

SPEAKER_05

You know.

SPEAKER_02

I saw the sh- I saw the I saw the reflection from the moon on your your shiny cranium.

SPEAKER_05

That's awesome.

SPEAKER_02

So what's going on, guys? Josh is getting a Ford Raptor.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I'm excited. I've been wanting a Ford Raptor a long time, man. What kind of engine? They're so expensive. What kind of engine do they have in it? Uh I don't know. Has V8. It's it's it's a pretty it's a pretty fast though.

SPEAKER_02

They're sporty, right?

SPEAKER_04

That's the whole deal with the Ford Raptor. Yeah, I just like the way they look. I have a really good friend, uh AJ, and every time I talk to him about the Ford Raptor, he's like, Don't buy the Ford Raptor. Oh, it's I don't like it. And I'm like, yeah, I don't give a fuck, man. Like I I love Ford Raptors, I think they look awesome. I've always wanted one. Yeah. But my as I as you know, I've told you this many times, like my truck's been paid off for like six years, and I'm like, I'm just gonna run it until it dies. And that's how I I always believe that. But I'm at 170,000. I don't really have any issues with it. But I was like, I saw this truck just last night, and I'm like, I want this truck. Fell in love. Yep.

SPEAKER_02

You know what I like about the Ford Raptor? They have a nice wide stance, that's what makes it look cool. Like, yeah, you know, a lot of like a lot of the Ford F-150s and stuff, they're kind of narrow and tall. Like that's that I like my suburban, and I put a lift in it, but it's so narrow at versus a truck that it just feels tall. And like the Ford Raptor, man, it has that has a nice wide kind of front. That's the same reason why I like the the the Hummers there. They were cool because they were wide.

SPEAKER_04

I like head and hummers too.

SPEAKER_02

You like oh he likes head and hummers.

SPEAKER_04

You're talking about a little head for when we got here.

SPEAKER_01

Ed, did you ever get your truck fixed? It wasn't your truck.

SPEAKER_05

Not yet. I'm just getting through tax season, so that's my next thing to get my truck. Truck back on the road. What kind of truck you got? I got a Ford 350. Oh, dang.

SPEAKER_02

It's a nice looking truck.

SPEAKER_05

It's a 2008. All right. Only got about a hundred thousand miles on it. You took care of it then. Yeah, it's my baby.

SPEAKER_01

He took so sit, he took such good care of it, it's dead in his driveway for the last two years. Right? How long did it sit there for? Two years. Two years. I know I went there. Genie mouth to mouth. I wrote my name in it every time I've gone over there in different spots. It's starting to sink it to the ground. Is it really?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. Oh man. What's wrong with it? It it just dying on me. It's a starter issue. I believe. So I bought a starter. So I'm gonna go from there. Um yeah, I miss it. You know, I was moving snow with it. Yep. Real good for moving snow. But when she went down, I was using an old tractor. Oh man, and driving backwards. In the tractor? On the tractors to move. Woo! It sucks. No cab. Old school.

SPEAKER_04

So you do the work yourself? You mechanic?

SPEAKER_05

No, not really. Not at that level. I do a lot of little things, but my buddy Jamie. Jamie O'Brien. He's a man I'm hopefully he can get to and take care of it for me this year. Do you know Jamie?

SPEAKER_02

I think so. I think so. He has his own company, right?

SPEAKER_05

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

He does build uh security fences.

SPEAKER_05

He travels all over the place.

SPEAKER_04

Don't say the name of his business. If he wants the name of his business, he needs to pay us for it. No, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.

SPEAKER_02

I'm like, whoa, that's hardcore job. I'm just kidding. You didn't even run that by me, you just went for it.

SPEAKER_01

I like that. I like it. He's looking out. He's looking out. He's just like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't be naming any businesses for free. And they hit their brakes.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, we uh we uh Julia's almost done paying on her truck, and we told the kids, we're like, um, yeah, once this truck's paid off, I think she's got like maybe six payments, maybe, maybe a year, I don't know. But once it's paid off, she's gonna the kids are gonna be 16 next year. Wow. And uh so Elliot's like, cool, and Ethan's like, I don't even know if I want to drive, but Evelyn's like, I'm gonna buy a Bronco. I'm like, you're 15. So she she knows the Bronco she wants. She painted a shoebox, the exact color of the Bronco, and write Ford Bronco fund on it. It's it's not the the low Bronco. It's gonna take her a while because they're pricey. They are pricey, but uh I told her I would match her, and I said, if we can find like an older model, like what when did they come out? Like in like 2021 or something like that, or 2020. The the newer ones, yeah. Broncos. So next year, I mean six years, seven years down the road, maybe 120,000 miles on a vehicle, we might be able to find a $20,000 Bronco. You know what I mean? So I I found some pretty cool I bought a Camaro like that once. I it at the time I bought it, let me see. I that was almost 10 years ago now. So I had a 2011, but it still was the same body style. They I think they just switched to the sleeker lights on the back instead of the the four circles.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, I remember that car.

SPEAKER_02

Um, and I uh I it had a V8 6.2 liter, it was the SS. It was, dude, it was a cool car. And uh I paid like $18,000 for it, and I put like $7,000 down. My payment was like $125 a month. I was like, this is badass. And I so but I was like, oh, it's older. And I almost bought one with less miles. I almost bought one was like a 2015 or something like that. And my the guy at my bank was like, he's like, who gives a shit? They look they look identical. He's like, how is the interior in mint condition? And if the bumper looked like it got re-ordered once and the bumper had been fixed, and I and I could tell if I looked underneath it, but from the outside you couldn't see it, and it it was everything was fine. And he's like, What are you gonna do with it? Drive a couple months out of the year and put it away. I'm like, Yep. And he's like, get the get the higher mileage one. He's like, it's wicked cheap. You'll you'll your payment will be nothing. I was like, you know what? I would drive that fucker around and nobody knew. Everybody's like, dude, you got a Camaro. I'm like, yeah, man, I got a Camaro. But it was a fast Camaro and the V8, you know, 6.2 liter engine. And every time I brought it to a dealer for an issue, if I had an oil changer, like, this is the best motor that uh Chevy's ever made, or the V8, whatever that model was. I don't know that about it. So I don't know. I don't I don't think there's really an I I used to always buy new, but I'm at a point now where I'm like, no, my I this is I've had my suburban for two and a half years now. I haven't had a vehicle for two and a half years in like over 20 years. I every year, boom, gone, new vehicle. I think I got a problem. You know that, right? I I have pictures and pictures of vehicles. Jeeps I've had. The Camaro, I had a couple, I had like I've had like two different Jeeps. I had two different like Chrysler 300s, I had chargers, I've had really, I've had um Ford F-150s, I've had Dodge Rams, I've had fucking Chevy um 1500s, I've had Chevy 2500s, I've had GMC Sierra. It's like every year I just like, well, I want that car, drive by FX Prayer. Hey, can I trade this in? Moff like, what are you doing? You know what I mean? I'm like, I'm trading in the car, I'm getting a new car. Wow. I had a problem. Then I'd put all this money in, I'd lift it, put rims for me, yeah. Then you're later, gone. Wow. I'm done doing that. Yeah, I would try to keep it. It's I I got a problem. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs. Like, that's where my money went was to that shit.

SPEAKER_04

So I saw Elliot just before we came down here. I think I probably freaked him out. He was going into Stewart's with a girl, and I said, Oh, there you go, is a handsome looking fella. And he looked at me and then he smiled. I'm not sure he knew it was me until he looked at me, but I think he thought, like, oh, there's a creeper here. Oh, he got freaked him out a little bit.

SPEAKER_02

I'm like, don't talk to people with tinted windows in their vehicles. You know, if you can't see them, just run. And you're like, hey, here, buddy. Hey, dude. I mean, it's better you're doing it to my my son than my daughter. That'd be really creepy. Right. So when you get in this truck, when you going on this weekend, you said Friday?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I gotta talk to the wife. Uh, see when see when she can go. See uh, I mean, I got so much going on during the week. Yeah, I mean, I want it tonight. Like, uh I want to drive out there and get it, but probably this weekend. Where is it exactly? Grand Rapids, Michigan? It's in uh I'll have to look.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_05

Thank God. Well, I got about 40 to go extension.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_02

It's a seven-hour drive.

SPEAKER_00

Uh yeah, it says uh bad.

SPEAKER_02

Drive there, get a hotel, and then come back.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, it says shifting from Tennessee in the original to Michigan in later entries. So it is Michigan. Um they just teased the new Evil Dead to go. They did a little teaser transfer. What's it called? Evil Dead Burn. Burn, that's right. I saw the uh little teaser. It was like from like a phone and it was on like a theater, and it looked really cool. It's like this person like crawling through a house like a bunch of dynites, like like kill everybody around her, and she's like kind of like a high problem and stuff.

SPEAKER_04

Is Evil Dead the one where like the there's the dead woman in the basement, and she tries to come up and he stomps on the trapdoor and her eye pops out?

SPEAKER_02

The chainsaw, that that's from Evil Dead, that little picture Ethan drew uh hanging up, that's from Evil Dead. That poster is Army of Darkness, that's from Evil Dead.

SPEAKER_04

I know this is gonna like this is gonna cost me some fans, but I always thought it was just stupid. I'm like, this movie is stupid.

SPEAKER_02

Well, that's why we don't really care about your opinion. That's why me and Eddie, when you walked away, we're like, Ford Raptors suck and found that road dead. What do you drive? A Ford? Oh Ford F 350. Ford F 350.

SPEAKER_04

Well, it doesn't drive anything right now.

SPEAKER_02

It's just I'm walking. I had a Ford. I had a I had a Ford F-150, had a 5-0 in it. Like at the time, it was it was lifted a little bit, like a four-inch lift. It was a sharp car, it ran awesome. And uh, I just never had a Ford before that. I just wish I had a bigger engine at the time. But um, I'll tell you what, I've had a lot of Chevi's and shit, and I've always liked Chevy, but I swear to God, their transmissions always get fucking weird. Like my transmission is starting to act up. And I used to work for a company, we had um all Chevies, the owner loves Chevies, we had vans, those fucking transmissions blew all the time. Like I had to drive, I had to drive from Syracuse to Albany, and I had to drive from Syracuse to Rochester and Buffalo. And if a van was, I was a supervisor, so if a van was broken, I drove down there in the morning, and the person, hey, this van's fucked up. I'm like, okay, I our garage was in Syracuse, I'd have to drive that thing fucking back, all fucked up. Sometimes it's about an hour to work, I get pulled over, get a ticket. Sometimes it's a transmission, I gotta drive 35 miles per hour all the way from Albany. I'm like, man, I'm like, but I still love I still love Chevy because when they work they're awesome.

SPEAKER_05

But I had a sh I had a Chevy Beretta and it was black, it was had a skirt around it, and I put lights, purple lights underneath it. So I used to go drive from Queens to uh Coney Island.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

I had that beretta on the belt parkway, yeah. With the lights on. What year? It was uh I think it was uh 90 92? Z28. No, Z26. Z26?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Black.

SPEAKER_05

It was all black.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, sir. I remember those cars. Remember those cars? I I used to have uh can you see it?

SPEAKER_00

Uh yeah, I can see I can see them.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, man. I uh I love getting my cars, man. I'm I'm actually getting the itch. You sent me that picture, I was already thinking, like, I've been seeing people driving cool like trucks and stuff. I'm like, I just I want to pay off my suburban. I I because every time I thought about training in, I thought about getting a Cadillac, I thought about getting a Lincoln, I thought about getting something big, but they're all kind of like they are a little bit better, but they're all really similar. And I like my my suburban. It's got I got the I got the big package with all leather seats and I got the panoramic roof and and uh um I can use it for my band and shit or whatever I decide to do. It's just it's great for us to travel with. It's got high mileage, but I took it on tour. I took it when I went out with Frey. I took it all the way out to out by Fargo. I can't remember how far I went. We went way the fuck out there and I took it all the way down to um Knoxville, Tennessee. Uh we we did like a couple tours to the East Coast and Northeast and stuff, and uh Yeah, my truck's been across the country too. It's put a lot of miles on it. So it's still it's still doing good, but I think the transmission is starting to act funny. I noticed it the other day. It was like it feels like it feels like when I'm shifting sometimes or giving it gas, it like it does a like a like a weird little wind up or jerk or something like that. Like I'm like, that's weird. But I'm also paranoid, so who knows?

SPEAKER_04

I like your I like your truck. It's comfortable. It's cool. That's that's nice.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it's the it's the first every time I get a truck, I gotta put big off-road tires on it. They're offset. I lift it, I put like a six or eight inch lift in it. I'm like, yeah, then I'm like, and then it starts to overcompensate. Then it starts to drive like shit. That's funny you say that. I actually I saw one of my buddies, I saw, I go, look at this guy driving out this fucking big ass truck. And it's a dude, I knew. And I was like, motherfucker. So I grabbed my phone, I I look him up and I sent him a text. I say, hey dude, nice big truck. What are you overcompensating for? And he's like, huh? And I said, I just saw you show by him. He's like, no, you didn't. I'm like, I did two motherfucker. And he's like, I'm down in fucking like New York City. What are you talking about? And I looked, I sent the and I know I said, I said, you know what they say about big trucks? I said, uh, means you got a little pecker.

SPEAKER_04

You know what I mean? Like, I was like, oh fuck, I gotta, I gotta I it just the initials were the same as the other guy, just hit send.

SPEAKER_04

So I uh this is many years ago, but I I texted somebody on accident. Somebody I I don't know how like it went to him, but I text somebody on accident, just nobody in my contacts, just somebody random. And he answered me, right? And he we had like a little conversation back and forth. He was answering me like you know, like it was somebody I knew, right? And but then I was like, what the this is a little weird. So I like I realized like I can't remember what happened, but I I realized at some point in the conversation like this is weird, and I'm like, what the hell? And then I realized like what this ain't even the right person, right? So I said, Man, I'm sorry, I think I messaged the wrong person. Like, my bad. And he goes, Go Cox. And I was like, Go co what the fuck? Go cox, and then he just texted me a picture like the game cocks. It was some where's the game cox from? It's uh it's like a college, yeah. South Carolina. So he's it was somebody in South Carolina, and he was like a Game Cox fan, and he sent me a picture of like the game cockpit. I'm like, okay, I don't even know what that is.

And I said, make it say the Redskins. And because I knew that I I thought the Cowboys and the Redskins were enemies, you know. I remember people that liked sports, and the guy just never made a tattoo appointment. I don't know if he was pissed. And maybe they did, but I didn't I didn't do a Dallas tattoo on it, but just ghosted me. I was like, oh shit. Sports beef is fucking real, man, with people, right?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Elvis could be like, hey, Rambro, remember when you told me that story? It's going to it's going to show the scene. You're like, that's not true. I mean, that wasn't me. Why are you always lying, Elvis?

SPEAKER_02

I want to get back into Elvis this summer and uh um I think we're gonna do one-off episodes. I don't think it's gonna be like I might not do a continuation of you, hey, get back here. I think the next episode's just gonna you guys are all buddies hanging out, you know, doing stuff. That way it's gonna be more like you don't have to get too in like wrapped up and you can just jump to any episode and stuff. Okay. I think it'll be cool. That way, like, because I got I got I got some pretty cool stories already written and stuff. And I imagine like you and you and Elvis are gonna be on a mission and your buddies and stuff, and like, you know, and you're yelling at, what are you doing? You like grab him like he's like I almost imagine like there's an emergency, like like a bomb threat at a building, and he's your kid, you're dragging him around, like, come on! You know, means they're gonna let's go. You know, he's like, Hey, check this out.

SPEAKER_03

Whoa, you know what I mean? Why are you always so mean to me?

SPEAKER_04

But do the jumping around, like I like you know, like the past or whatever, like jumping around doing these funny things, and then at the end just finish it. And the last episode, like the first and the last episode will be the beginning and the end, and then everything in the middle is just all the bullshit. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I got some pretty cool ideas for that.

SPEAKER_00

But I think you should have the second episode have like every like an interrogation or something right about, uh, and then like you should like go into Yeah, maybe we'll do that.

SPEAKER_02

But dude, speaking of space. I know. This is crazy. Dude, have you heard have you so there's there's a it's it's it's not like everywhere. It's not like all over the news. I don't see it all the time. I saw it on mainstream news the other night for the first time, but there's um I hadn't heard of it until you sent it to me. Yeah, it's fucking weird. So um, so apparently wait till you hear this. Yeah, this is this is crazy shit. Oh shit. So apparently um I saw I uh uh maybe a month or so ago, right around that Gunthree, that Guthrie, what's that girl's name? That that chick who get went missing, that that news anchor's mom. Yeah, Gunthree. Guthrie, Guthrie. Did they ever find her? No, they did they still haven't found her. No. Dude, weird shit. So apparently, I don't know, that that's a whole nother story. But around the same time, right after they squeezed in um some some uh high-ranking um scientist um went missing on a hike. And it was a it was weird because there was two other scientists that either were worked with him or worked for the same company or something weird that like one was murdered or something, and one like committed suicide and he went missing on a hiking trick trip. He left, he didn't bring his wallet, he brought a pistol or some weird shit, right? I I don't remember the details of the story, but now it's um there's a headline right here. I'm looking at 11 missing or dead scientists draw a federal scrutiny, including four tied to LA County. So I was like, what the f so I told him, I said, dude, we gotta talk about this because each scientist has connections to sensitive nuclear aerospace research, each one of these scientists. And I and I don't know for sure if they're all connected to um um um uh the same programs or whatever, but um like this one that's been missing since June 2022, um, was an aerospace engineer and materials processor who worked for NASA, jet propulsion, the incident she disappeared while hiking with a friend near Mount Waterman in Los Angeles for us. According to your companion, they were roughly 30 feet apart when they made eye contact. She smiled and waved to indicate she was fine. Moments later, when the friend turned around again, she had vanished. Um, another person died February 16, 2026. Off background. Grillmare was a renowned 67-year-old astrophysicist in Calix Infrared Processing and Analysts Um Center Um incident. He was gunned down on the front porch of his home in Lano in um Antelope Valley. Um they arrested a 29-year-old in connection with the shooting, was uh near a carjacking. Another person died July 30th, 2023, background resident of Sunland Hicks, veteran research scientist, JPL, 24 years, was a highly respected physicist specializing in physical properties of comets and asteroids. Um incident, Hicks passed away at 59, his cause of death was never made public. Another person died July 4th, 2024. Um, 61-year-old um was a highly specialized engineer designed critical instruments for space missions. Incident, Malin died in Los Angeles, his cause of death was never made public. Um, another person um uh died um December 2025. His body was recovered from a lake. Um, police have no evidence. Um, another one, General Will Neil uh McSalen, that's the one I was talking about. Retired Air Force official, known for his leadership in the Air Force research laboratory in New Mexico, missing from his home in Albuquerque, February 27, 2026. His phone, prescription glasses, and wearable devices were not found at home, but his hiking boots, wallet, and a 38-caliber revolver reported missing, according to the police or whatever. Another person missing on June 26th after being spotted walking alone in Tails County. Her car was belongings were found at her home. She just disappeared. Another person disappeared. May 8th. It's just like the list goes on. June 11th, another person missing um ruled her death a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Um shot twice. Um another person, December 15th, 2025, was fatally shot in his home in Massachusetts. Um uh, but dude, like these people, another person, May 8th, um uh worked at this the same a laboratory. These are all scientists that were involved in like this, all this crazy shit. 78-year-old, they found his wallet keys and other personal items left beside his car, was locked in the driveway, and there was no signs of forced entry. Um, he he worked at the National Laboratory before retiring in 2017. Dude, it's like another person. It's it's just, dude, I'm just going through all these names. August 28th, 2025. Wow.

SPEAKER_04

Like they had two things in common. They were scientists with this um top secret weird stuff going on. They all had that in common and they were all friends with the Clintons. Were they all friends? Were they? I mean it makes sense, right? Well, I don't know about that, but they were. If we wouldn't have laughed, you'd have been like, yeah, that's true. They must have been.

SPEAKER_02

Well, they all worked for NASA or something. They all had like, they all had um they had sense they were they were they had connections to sensitive nuclear aerospace research. And it's weird because we just went to the moon. Did you see people debunking like that shit, showing pictures like zoomed in and saw a fly flying around? Did you see that?

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_02

Someone had a picture, and I don't know if it's true or not, it's hard to see on the internet, but like, but like we just went to the moon, all these countries are like trying to get to the moon. You know, you know they said we lost all that information. Yeah, like that's weird, right?

SPEAKER_04

So no, it's not weird, it's bullshit. I know, but like so it's a lie, that's what it is.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so basically, like we we um we were behind in the space race, all these other countries, like Russia was like ahead of everything. Russia was like leading the way, and then all of a sudden we went to the moon. Yep. That's weird, man. But yeah, these people are missing, these scientists are missing. Like that's crazy. So like what so what's like the what's the story? Like what's the what's what's the rumor?

SPEAKER_04

I think it's just coincidence. It's just coincidence. I'm no I'm joking. No, I think there's something to it. It's I th I mean there's gotta be, right?

SPEAKER_05

I mean, I maybe they hitched a ride on AI Atlas. There you go. Kept moving.

SPEAKER_04

Three I come around and picked up our best scientists. Or or they're they're like, you know what we need? Let's go to a different freaking galaxy and collect some dumb fucking scientists. Did you they'd be stupid to them, right? If they can fly here from another dimension or another galaxy.

SPEAKER_02

Did you do any research on it? Did you look it up at all or something? Yeah, I did.

SPEAKER_04

Basically, the same type of stuff I just said. Yeah, it's crazy. It's uh did you see what Trump said?

SPEAKER_02

I just saw that he said something, but I didn't see what he said.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, he just said that they talked that they had a meeting about it, so they're aware of it. They had a meeting, they're looking into it, and hopefully they have some answers in a week or so.

SPEAKER_02

That's just fucking weird. They can't find that Guthrie lady, though. What happened to her?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. Crazy, man.

SPEAKER_04

When it happened, I thought there was a whole lot of uh like evidence that was showing the uh son-in-law. Right. That's what I thought.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. And then they shut it down. Yeah, it's crazy.

SPEAKER_04

So what's up with that? Is the son-in-law connected somehow?

SPEAKER_02

I don't even know like how I mean, I'm not saying that it's not important to to to to do that, but how many people get kidnapped? How many people get taken from their homes that they're not that they're not like talking about? Why are they talking about this particular person versus anybody else? I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

I heard a um Sarah? A theory that it could be foreign. Could be foreign agents. They've done that before. Uh you know, different countries take top scientists from just kidnap them from other countries and make them work for them. I heard theories about that. So that could be something. I remember uh like my wife when this is so off topic, but well, kind of on that topic. My wife one time was like, she heard about this clone of Willie, you know, thing. So she's like, We should we should get that clone a willy. So we got so I ordered it from adamandeve.com. The clone, this is a true story. The clone, you know, you don't know what clone o' willy is? So they send you this like this tube and it's got like these chemicals in it, and you mix them up and you gotta you put one in water, it's gotta be like the right temperature, then you gotta, you know, be in the be in the right mood. Yeah, and then you slide it in there, you know, and it like it it hardens like pretty quick. What? And then you dump in like uh, you know, the stuff to make uh you know an adult toy. And it and it it oh my god, it's like it gets everything, like every little it worked, yeah. The vein, like the vein, I mean everything, it's identical, right? I was like, so it was it was crazy, right? It was cool, and my wife wanted it, so I was like, Yeah, let's do it. So we did it, it was cool, but then like I started getting older, and one day I was just like, We gotta get rid of the clona Willy. And she's like, What do you mean? I'm like, I don't like what if we both got in a car accident and then our kids are cleaning out our shit, and they're like, Oh my, here's that that was that was your thought.

SPEAKER_02

That was your first thought. Well, if I get into a car accident, my my dick's in the drawer at home.

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_02

Clona Willy, yeah. I've I've I've I've heard of those things. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

You see this penis, son? They're like, what the hell is this? Is this one of the erasers that goes on the top of a pencil? No, that's your dad's clona wheelie.

SPEAKER_02

Was he the guy with the glasses?

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Like I didn't know what to expect, so I played with I played with his band the other night. I played drums for him. They he he invited me, so they needed me, but they kind of didn't need me, but he just did it because I kept saying, Oh, I want to be in a cover band someday. So he kind of invited me in just so I could be in a cover band. By the time we went on, everybody was like, you know, half in the bag, I think, and stuff. I'm like, well, that's uh that's what happened.

SPEAKER_04

We started losing a crowd like right before my band went on. And I was like, what is going on? Why are we losing a crowd? But I found out after they ran out of the they only had like one kind of alcohol left. Oh so they they just ran out. So everybody was like, I'm too drunk to stop. I gotta go to a different bar. So that's kind of why like we lost a little bit of the crowd there. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02

I didn't really care. I just like Julia's like, just pretend you're on drummeo. I'm like, okay, you know what drummeo is? No, yeah, you know what drummeo is? You guys should check it out, it's really cool.

SPEAKER_05

Drummeo.

SPEAKER_02

Uh here's a shout out to Drummeo. So Drumeo is like a song.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, stop saying these names unless they pay us.

SPEAKER_02

So so basically, like these guys get like um big drummers and like the drummer from like Chili Peppers, and they play him a bunch of songs that he's never heard before. They say, Have you heard this? Have you heard this? until they find a song he hasn't heard. They say, Okay, we're not gonna tell you what it is. There's no drum track to it, but it'll be a famous song. So it'll be like a Metallica song, right? And he'll have to make up a drum beat to just the guitars and the vocals without the they take the drums out somehow. And so they listen to it, like, this is bullshit, this is metal, this is this is some heavy band, I don't play heavy stuff. So, like these drummers, you know, they'll bring old jazz drummers in, they'll bring like really crazy, intense, progressive drummers in, and they usually throw you a style that's a little bit sometimes. It's like it's it's it's it's it's related, but like sometimes it's it's like you gotta really figure it out, you know. And um, it's an awesome show. You should check it out. I'm gonna send you guys a link to something because it is really cool to watch these guys just work their magic and just how drummers you know perceive the song and just play their own thing, not knowing, and then they hear like, oh, that's a good part. Oh, that drummer's kick ass. Shit, I should have done that.

SPEAKER_04

So some of the old you know, oh it's classic, it's all classic rock now, but some of that old, old stuff, like it was so easy. Like Def Leopard, you could play with one hand, it was so easy. He was a really good drummer before he lost his arm.

SPEAKER_02

He was good afterwards. No, he he he could play they he's so good he could play. He was still a drummer in a band after he lost an arm. Wow, you know that he like they tried to sew that thing back on, right? I did not know that. Yeah, so like, dude, there's a VH1 story or MTV had a story on it. So he that flepper, like, he was like I I I don't know how big he was in the sense of like being a drummer, but I remember like he was a good drummer, like he could fucking play. And then he had a hot rod and he was with some chick, lost Trove's car. I don't know if he wanted to fly out the window or the sunroof or something like that, but it ripped his arm off. And he was there talking to the police, and they're like, He's I'm a famous rock and roll drummer. Well, they tried to they tried to sew they tried to sew his arm back on, and he had his arm for a while, and uh he was trying to play drums and do stuff, yeah, and then and it just just body rejected it and he lost his arm. And so he had to like reinvent how to play drums. And I mean he simplified, but I mean, like I lost my leg and I can still sing.

SPEAKER_03

I lost my leg and I can still sing. It's not that big of a deal.

SPEAKER_02

I just got to balance on one foot now. I don't I don't do flying kicks, I don't do the David Lee Roth off the stage anymore. My throat was so bad.

SPEAKER_04

Like the it was did you think it was stuffy in there in the fire home?

SPEAKER_02

Dude, I was I I was standing, I was I was cold when I first came in because it was kind of raining. I was like, all right, I'm just gonna wear my hoodie. And I went in there and then it just started, I I was like, is this smoky in here? What what am I what is going on here?

SPEAKER_04

And it just I started getting wicked hot and stuff, and Julius like, she's like, it's it's just muggy, it's just like yeah, just felt like it was like really messing my throat, and I just I kept trying to drink it away, you know, like because if I took a sip, then it was good for a second, but it's coming right back. And then when we got on stage and I started playing, I'm like, I'm looking at the set list, I'm like, I'm not sure I can hit some of these notes. My throat's kind of my throat's kind of messed up. That's why we skipped uh I can't remember which one we skipped, but we skipped the one song because I was like, I'm not sure I can hit that right now.

SPEAKER_02

I don't even know what was going on. All I know is that I saw Tim start the very first song he started. He started and he stopped, and he looked at me. He kind of looked around, I'm like, he's drunk. I was like, all right, we're gonna run. No, he wasn't. Tim wasn't drunk. We're gonna I was like, then he looked at me again, he started again. I was like, okay, maybe he can't, because I couldn't hear anything.

SPEAKER_04

His guitar kept going out of tune. Oh like we're the like through the I don't know what was going on, but he did tune right after that. Yeah, like the first uh the first two songs he kept. We like we'd start playing them, and then his guitar was going out of tune, and he'd have to tune it after the song, and he's like, I don't know what the fuck's going on in my guitar, but he keeps going out of tune.

SPEAKER_02

It's probably the what the the it was like very damp or more humidity. So I was just paying attention to him. That's kind of who I pay attention to. I looked over to the other guys and stuff, and and I know the bass went out one time, he turned it on halfway through. I couldn't hear the other ramp at all. I was like, okay, I'm just gonna pay attention to Tim. Yeah, so basically I just waited from the start, and then like he was so far away I couldn't hear anything else. So I just I don't know if you noticed, but I was I was counting everything just in between just to make sure we were on time and stuff. But I mean, I think it worked. I mean kept everything flowing, but I was like, Julia's like, there's one song I started way too early. I was like, Julia, I couldn't hear anything. Like I like I heard I heard once I kind of recognized where I was in the song, I just I'm just playing drummyok. Yeah, and I was just drummy owing it the whole time. Like, play there's a couple songs I don't know. Like, I I I didn't even know what they were doing. I'm like, I just I was hum, I was like, So I was like, I started playing wicked fills.

SPEAKER_03

Like, I was like, I'm going, I'm doing a metal fill right here. Did you hear some of the fills that I was doing? Oh yeah. You're like, fuck. I was like, I'm I'm like, I'm not even looking at Josh. He's gonna he's gonna do the singer thing, look at me like, what the fuck you doing? That's not what I do. I told you, just have fun, man.

SPEAKER_04

It doesn't matter what I'm gonna do. I'm not looking at him. We've been playing so long, and we've been playing these songs so long that we're gonna we're just gonna make it work anyway. It doesn't matter what you do if you met the only like on Rebel Yell, you came in on the uh like you came into the chorus too soon. So I wasn't at the chorus yet, and he's playing the chorus on drums, and I'm like, fuck. So but after I realized that he was and then he did it the second time, but I was already kind of ready for it, so I just moved closer to Tim. Oh, I came in twice too quick instead of the drum. No, you did it on like all three.

SPEAKER_02

But yeah, it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_04

I mean we got three. I was drumming my way through it. Yeah, but we've been playing so long together that if one of us screw up, like we all we we we fix it, like we you know, on the fly, but we haven't played with you. So it was harder to fix it.

SPEAKER_02

Two times, and and then one one time you guys got me stoned.

SPEAKER_04

So But it was good.

SPEAKER_02

It was the only time we were.

SPEAKER_04

It was the only time that I noticed anything was in the final song. It was the only time that I even noticed you uh messing anything up. The first song you started a little slow, but then we picked it up, and like this is funny because this is how Ethan draws. Like he turns aside, he's looking like this, he's playing like this, but he's looking to the side for some reason.

SPEAKER_01

So I'm like over to his side and I'm like, hey, like, hey, hey, hey, and I'm like, I cannot get his attention.

SPEAKER_04

I'm like, fuck it, whatever.

SPEAKER_02

No, I be because these guys like like they play the songs kind of faster, and I learned the songs through the songs. So like my internal metronome like just locks in, and once I'm there, I just I'm trained to do it that way. So they're like, I'm playing a song, I know it's right on tempo. He's like, faster. Okay, man. So then so then I did it, I did it with a song I started so and I was like, well, he's gonna want faster. So I sped up a little bit, and I was like, whatever, I'm just gonna jam out.

SPEAKER_04

He makes me sound like an asshole, but I that's not how I say it to him. Like, we should go a little we need to get a few more.

SPEAKER_02

Oh no, no, no, dude. No, I don't make you sound like you make you sound like an asshole. I'm just telling people about it.

SPEAKER_04

No, that's not how I listen to our role.
