00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:38.679
Ladies, nip that erection in the
bud with a sexual temperance spoon guarantee

9
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:42.560
to soften the most optimistic card or
school nurses have known for many centuries that

10
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:46.359
a sharp blow from a cold spoon
is the best way to attainment unwelcome erection.

11
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:49.920
Now, at last, these spoons
are available to the public. If

12
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.799
you finish with all that nonsense many
years ago, but it still raises its

13
00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:58.159
ugly head, then this spoon's for
you. Stop it before it starts.

14
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:03.159
One whack and it's on the slack. It's the only spoon that stopped staring

15
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:08.159
only twenty four ninety nine from All
Good shops made in England from quality stainless

16
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:12.680
steel. The Sexual Temperance Spoon is
kept nice and cold in its own miniature

17
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:17.760
chilling cabinet. Measuring only six inches
by six inches by ten inches. The

18
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:23.840
cabinet fits easily on any bedside table, ready for any nocturnal emergency. Listen

19
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.879
to these testimonials, missus R.
Barnsley, Why have you got ideas?

20
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:30.719
One night, after watching carry on
soldier, a quick flick with the Temperance

21
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:36.079
Spoon fit him scampering to the spare
room with his tail between his legs.

22
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:41.599
Think Sexual Temperance Spoon. Hi,
I'm Pat Davis. My husband would chase

23
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:45.719
me around with wood, just like
a little dog looking for a dinner bulk,

24
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:49.239
and I got so fed up with
it I almost left him. But

25
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.840
then a friend told me about the
Temperance Spoon and I went out and bought

26
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:59.400
a dozen. Now my husband sits
in the garage for hours and he still

27
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:04.560
pays all the bills. Thanks Temperance
Spoon, You're the best. Hey.

28
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:08.039
And I used to snort by agran
cocaine, so I constantly had chuck wood,

29
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:12.039
you know what I'm saying. And
I found that every woman that I

30
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.240
went near was offended by my chuck
wood, and I didn't know how to

31
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:19.520
stop, nor did I want to
stop doing drugs. And a friend told

32
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.479
me about Hey, you want to
get loaded and not get boating down there,

33
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:27.840
try this out, hey, Tefference
Spoon. Every time I get a

34
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:31.639
woody and knock it out, and
that's a woody, good bye, timber,

35
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:38.280
said the lumberjack. Thanks Teffrincepoon.
Rocky needed you. Hey, everybody,

36
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:44.000
this is Rod's steel, and I'll
tell you it's hard to keep a

37
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.479
good man down. But with a
temperance Spoon, I could keep four five,

38
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:53.000
six seven them down. And I
don't even need to go to Broadway

39
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:57.120
and where no hat to do it. Thanks Temprince Spoon. And it also

40
00:02:57.199 --> 00:03:00.639
takes hickeys off, if you know
what I mean. It's the only spoon

41
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:05.879
that stops stirring. Only twenty ninety
nine from all good shots a Downboy Chastity

42
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:09.479
product. Please note extremely hard erections
or lunger erections may require more than one

43
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:13.599
whack on the list. If not, please see your local position to stop

44
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:39.479
the direction from getting bigger. One
point twenty. You are listening to the

45
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:46.280
one and only back to the Eighties
Radio. This is Tiscano from Tuscano and

46
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.759
Chang and we're here on another Friday. Thank you for taking the time to

47
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:55.400
join us from around the world and
making us the number one eighties show on

48
00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:01.960
Earth. And now with me as
he is every single day is a man

49
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:08.599
that has been in more wrestling rings
than the Rock dressed as a queen.

50
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:18.000
And that is the all powerful Chang, the genie outside the bottle. Heresy,

51
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:28.319
Heresy to all of my friends,
Heresy, heresy. Toscano, my

52
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:35.800
friend, a joyous Friday. Hope
it has been a changtastic week for all

53
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:40.639
of you little girls and goblins.
But that's for a holiday coming soon,

54
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.519
Toscato. Before we get started,
I want to tell our good friends that

55
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:48.079
this year for Halloween, Toscano is
going to dress up like me. Yes,

56
00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:51.360
I'm going to dry and dress up
like Toscago, and we're going to

57
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:57.399
see if we could fool our wives
into leading us both at the same time.

58
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:01.519
So when we make aliens and be
millions of dollars with our radio show,

59
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:05.800
when we are the new kings of
terrestrial radio, a serious radio,

60
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:13.519
we will look back at that Halloween
gleefully and say ah divorce really wasn't that

61
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:18.879
expensive. How are you all doing? Everybody? Yeah, my favorite,

62
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:26.240
my most favorite Italian since Chef Boyard
and the guy that created pizza. Somebody

63
00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:30.839
out there, hit us on our
Facebook, our Instagram, hit us on

64
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:34.399
our Patreon page and leave a little
something for us and maybe give us the

65
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:39.160
answer. And who's the guy that
I should love more than Chiscato that created

66
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:43.199
pizza? Exactly? I think that's
a good deal. I also want to

67
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:46.959
give you guys a shout out listening
to us from the ends of the earth.

68
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:51.920
That's right, from Spain, from
Australia, Germany, from all over

69
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:58.199
Europe, central South America, from
Mexico, from Canada, I mean everywhere

70
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:02.800
States, Yeah, from the Islands, from Aruba, and from all those

71
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:06.600
places where we get thumbs down.
We still love you. We give you.

72
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:12.759
You give us that's right, thumbs
down, thumbs up, it doesn't

73
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:16.319
matter you're thumbing us. I want
to give a special shout out to all

74
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:21.680
of our listeners that are in a
correctional facility. No matter where you are

75
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:27.360
at, you prisoners know we love
you just the same. And this next

76
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:30.639
song that we're going to do in
twenty twenty five from Johnny Cash will go

77
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:32.920
out to you. I don't know
if I'll be alive to see it's been,

78
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:36.079
but it will. We also want
to give a very big shout out

79
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:42.079
to all of our individuals out there
in the armed forces. We thank you

80
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.959
for your bravery and your commitment to
take care of us. We also want

81
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.560
to give a special shout out to
everybody in the law enforcement, in the

82
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:56.160
medical field, first responders on handling
the COVID epidemic. Thank you very much

83
00:06:56.199 --> 00:07:00.040
for listening, and let's all stay
healthy out there. Toscano, are you

84
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:02.240
ready to rock and roll on tonight's
show? Oh, it's going to be

85
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.319
nostalgic because we're going to hit our
listeners with a little bit of everything,

86
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:10.600
are we not. We are,
especially because we're gonna be talking about some

87
00:07:10.680 --> 00:07:15.680
of the things that people who lived
in the eighties will remember. But before

88
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:17.639
we go there, I say we
take a little break. I say,

89
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:20.399
so I need to repress on my
drink, and I think you need to.

90
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.800
I think maybe you need to go
put your chaps on, you know,

91
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:28.040
the ones without a butt talks,
because yes, looks a little warm

92
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.240
in the studio and I don't want
to see you perspire in your butt cheeks

93
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:34.040
because when you get off your leather's
chair makes a little bit of an embarrassing

94
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:36.560
noise. Well, you know how
it changed. You know how warm it

95
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:41.319
gets in this studio. Oh yes, I believe you sat me there with

96
00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:46.839
no pants on as you and your
son's mocked my girlish figure I recall.

97
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:49.000
By the way, I do want
to let you guys know that if you're

98
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:53.879
listening to us on any podcast platform, unfortunately you're not gonna be able to

99
00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:57.040
hear the songs that we played during
the breaks. But if you go ahead

100
00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:00.800
and go on over and click on
the link on our Facebook page, which

101
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:03.839

00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:16.639
be able to hear us live and
playing songs. I'm gonna take us all

105
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:20.560
out on something missus Chang tells me
when I'm writing into my diary, you're

106
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.680
writing nothing but fictitious lies about yourself. Lan. We are going to take

107
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:28.839
you out to k Hits ninety two
point five with something from Azzi Diary of

108
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:33.440
a Madman. You are listening to
k Hits ninety two point five and you

109
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:37.080
have been banged by Tiscano and Chang. Where you can get your feel of

110
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:39.320
eighties music right here? Back to
the eighties, don't you go nowhere.

111
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:46.879
We're coming right back for your soul
eighties for lame. That's because we had

112
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:50.399
a list through this decade. Yet
you're listening to back to the eighties.

113
00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:56.279
You're back with back to the eighties
Tiskanno and Chang Chang. Here we are

114
00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:01.960
coming back from a great song by
Ozzie when he went on his solo band

115
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:07.240
with the greats of Randy Rhodes and
the great man behind the Kid, Tommy

116
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:13.360
Aldridge, and Ozzie was down and
out. Black Sabbits had kicked him out

117
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.960
of the band for his drug and
his alcohol usage. He was divorced to

118
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:22.519
find Randy Rhodes. Bro You you, I know, are a great lover

119
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:26.240
of guitar because you play and your
son is a prodigy. But how can

120
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:31.000
you beat Randy Rhodes at nineteen twenty
twenty one coming up with the epic music

121
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:35.080
that he did on the albums for
Ozzie I don't know if some of our

122
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:39.840
listeners know that he had already been
studying for a doctrine God Rest his soul.

123
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:43.440
Randy Rhodes, Yeah, and you
know, was speaking of that.

124
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:48.399
And I've been lately looking at and
finding out a bunch of band members from

125
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:52.159
the eighties from different music styles,
right different genres, whether it be new

126
00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:56.639
wave or rock specifically the rock,
and it's for obvious reasons, but I

127
00:09:56.799 --> 00:09:58.759
just found out, Bro, and
I didn't know this. You know,

128
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:05.000
Stephen Percy from Rat has cancer.
Though he is performing still and he's still

129
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.440
sounding pretty good in spite of his
health challenge, you know. And I

130
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.639
had no idea, and I really
admire that. I personally like Rat,

131
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:16.799
of course, you know, let's
let's get real. Of course, we're

132
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:22.039
talking about Rat when they started back
in the eighties. It's it's a whole

133
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.039
different ballgame now. But he still
has pretty good chops to be able to

134
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:28.279
sing. But my hats go off
to Stephen Percy, to him and his

135
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:33.759
family. It's a difficult road that
they have ahead of them. And you

136
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:35.879
know what, Bro bringing that up, that takes my mind back to Quiet

137
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.840
Riot and the devastation that band suffered. You know, I mean with Kevin

138
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:48.440
Dubrow passing away from a drug overdose, of Frankie Banali the drummer, carrying

139
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.279
on that band and going through several
different members in that band to try to

140
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:56.039
recapture that heart and soul that Quiet
Riot did captivate us with, and then

141
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:03.679
him of you know, finally falling
to the cancer disease. It's what you

142
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.600
tell me about, Stephen Piercey reminds
me of that because Frankie Bernali did in

143
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:13.000
exactly have that fire and that passion
to continue until he wasn't able to.

144
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:18.840
And I got to give it up
to Rudy Sarzo of the former bass player

145
00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:22.200
of Quiet Riot when they did explode
onto the scene, which I did get

146
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.519
to see him at the US Festival
in eighty three when they came out with

147
00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:31.240
their first album. I don't know
if you remember that one with Bang your

148
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:35.879
Head, Yeah, of course you
know, and uh, Frankie Benali,

149
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:41.399
it's a testament to eighties rockers,
you know, the fire and the power

150
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:46.399
and the passion in those hearts of
with the rockers of the eighties, that

151
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:50.360
kind of catapultas two hard times,
So like you, my best to h

152
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:56.440
Stephen Piercy, his family and everybody
that is a fan of Rat. You

153
00:11:56.559 --> 00:12:00.440
know, when it's his time,
just like you know, it's always going

154
00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:03.639
to be time for one of us
to go. When he goes, May

155
00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:07.399
his trip be a packed out house. And as soon as he gets to

156
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:11.159
Heaven, may he had the stage
with greats like Randy Rhodes and you know,

157
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:16.919
Severe Vaughan and Jimmy Hendricks and John
Bonham. So our hearts and souls

158
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:20.080
go out to mister Piercy. I'm
sorry that I had to hear of this

159
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.080
news from you right here, but
what better places to hear from it?

160
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:26.200
Yeah? Rock and roll? Yeah, you know what, I was thinking

161
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.279
that there may be a good idea
for us to do a show dedicated to

162
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.320
those that we have lost in the
music industry from the from the eighties.

163
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.559
It doesn't matter when the band was
formed, it's just if it's a band

164
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:41.879
that we heard throughout the eighties and
they made an impression in the eighties and

165
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:46.240
for some reason, members were lost. I think it'd be a good idea

166
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:48.679
if we talked about that in our
next show. You know what, I

167
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:52.080
agree with you. I think that
is a topic that we need to touch

168
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.279
upon. And I think our listeners
would probably get a smile and a tear.

169
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:01.320
I mean, such great bands like
The Cars come to mind, because

170
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:05.519
The Cars did really start, I
believe in seventy six, seventy seven,

171
00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:09.080
and their first LP came out in
seventy eight, and then their hit seventy

172
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:15.480
nine. But it was used to
remember Moving in Stereo became epically huge in

173
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:20.039
the eighties. Richmond High of course, a movie and a lot of us.

174
00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:24.240
I'm sure you do too, bro. When you hear that song Moving

175
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:26.240
in Stereo by the Cars, it
takes you back to the eighties and totally

176
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:31.240
nineteen seventy nine when the album was
cut in movies. In the meantime,

177
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:33.320
on this show, we've got a
great program for you because we're gonna be

178
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:37.440
talking about We're gonna be talking about
things only people who lived in the nineteen

179
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:41.399
eighties will remember. That's right.
I remember in the eighties when blow was

180
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:48.120
good. Yeah, you would.
Nostalgia for the eighties is so rampant now

181
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.639
in twenty twenty one. Even people
who weren't alive during that decade sometimes want

182
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:58.320
to celebrate it. Even you know, younger audiences like the millennials and even

183
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:03.080
younger than them. They'll go on
eighties parties and eighties get togethers, and

184
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.639
now even eighties cruises. They'll put
on the whole costume and everything. That's

185
00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:09.519
funny because the way we used to
dress now is called a costume. But

186
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.799
I take I take a fast I
do. Yeah, I do too,

187
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.519
you know what, Hold on to
kind Let me go take off my parachute

188
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:20.320
pants right now. I do not
want to sit here comfortably and have people

189
00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:22.639
mock. They're mocking your good friend, your partner. You're going to allow

190
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:28.639
them. Never gonna allow me never
wearing as this parachute pants as you sit

191
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.240
with your asses chaps. I'm I'm
appalled. Hold on, give me two

192
00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:35.320
seconds to change the jeans, the
tennis shoes and T shirts. That's still

193
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:39.080
a thing, and a lot of
us still dressed that way, right chang

194
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:48.919
anyway, that's anyway I resemble that
comments you resembles. As a matter of

195
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.600
fact, I am still wearing the
levis that I bought in nineteen eighty nine,

196
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:58.000
with all the original holes and the
fading that I did myself, with

197
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.399
sometimes being a littally knee braided and
throwing bleach into my levis when I really

198
00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:07.200
didn't need to do that. Yeah, isn't it I'm wearing. Yes,

199
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:09.000
I'm wearing those levis right now.
And the only reason I am doing it

200
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.559
is because I took off my parachute
pants, because I took higher pants.

201
00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:18.799
I'm saying that we Yes, that's
that's son of a monkey who said that?

202
00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:22.840
Can you send me his name?
I want to write them funny?

203
00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:28.000
Isn't it funny that? Um,
as a matter of fact, check out,

204
00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:33.240
I'm I'm literally wearing I'm literally wearing
eighties clothes right now. Yes,

205
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:35.960
I could tell that by the shirt
on top. Yes, so I'm wearing

206
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:39.720
the shirt total eight the hat,
the whole nine yards. And are you

207
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:46.759
wearing your booty socks? I'm not
wearing booty girls girls barefoot boot today Yeah

208
00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:52.519
no, no, just barefoot.
So it's interesting thing. It's interesting to

209
00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:58.799
me that they would call now style
something that wasn't invented way way back when

210
00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:02.559
we were younger, like the kind
of by you and me alone. Yeah,

211
00:16:02.600 --> 00:16:06.320
we invented this, the kind of
jeans and the torn jeans, that's

212
00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:08.639
right. You know some people that
today you have to pay an arm and

213
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:11.759
a leg to get We used to
just get a pair of scissors and do

214
00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:17.720
it ourselves. Now get this.
My granddaughter hit me up last weekend.

215
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:19.360
As you know, I was back
in Los Angeles and I was visiting my

216
00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:23.120
children and my grandchildren, and it
was my granddaughter's a first high school dance.

217
00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:26.519
She's fifteen years old. Angelina,
we love my give rish out out

218
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:32.559
order that Papa loves you. So
as I was there. I got there

219
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:36.320
Friday, bro and I was wearing
some of my older Levi's. I don't

220
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:37.960
know when the date on them,
but they were older and they had their

221
00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:44.120
original holes in them with the white
string showing they were the original the first

222
00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:48.480
one. I got there and I
saw my grandkids, and I initially,

223
00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:52.919
like every grandpa or grandparent, does
you flip them some money? My granddadter

224
00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:55.759
initially took the twenty bucks that I
gave her right then and there and said,

225
00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:56.799
Papa, I'll give you twenty bucks
for those paths. Right now,

226
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:00.120
go in the bathroom and take them
off. Those are bad ass. And

227
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:03.960
then I said, no, hey, wait a minute here, I'm not

228
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:07.440
wearing any underwear. I'm not wearing
any underwear because Papa came commando because it

229
00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:10.519
was a long ride. But not
only am I. I'm not going to

230
00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:12.839
pay. I'm not going to take
my own money for my own pants.

231
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:18.960
Right of all? How dare you
use profanity? And Papa's ora? I

232
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:22.640
never cuss? What the hell is
rung? By the way? That that

233
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:26.319
wasn't you? She she was,
She's a little hustler. It sounds like

234
00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:30.359
she was willing to give you back
your own twenty bucks money. So you'd

235
00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:33.119
keep your money, but she'd take
your pants. You'd be left with no

236
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.559
pants and twenty bucks. Well,
actually I would have been left with no

237
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:40.839
pants as I stood there, But
I did have several pairs of Levi's five

238
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:44.359
O one. That's right, everybody
in my luggage? Howey, what do

239
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:47.599
you think of that toscano? How
dare you mock me? Because I still

240
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:53.119
wear five ones. Sometimes I'll slip
into a comfortable boot fit or five oh

241
00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:56.519
five, but that's as far as
I go. Well, one of the

242
00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:00.279
things that was hard to do in
the eighties is keeping your valuables, and

243
00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:07.480
so they ended up coming up with
something called a fanny pack. I had

244
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:10.839
a couple of those. I had
leather ones because I had to look metal.

245
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:14.599
You had to look Yeah, that
must have looked really really manly.

246
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:17.720
You know what. Yeah, somebody
goes, hey, are you dating Rob

247
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.039
Halford? And I said, no, Oh, dare you say that?

248
00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:22.920
And I'm going to go into my
fanny pack and pull out a buck knife.

249
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.640
Let's throw it at you. Are
you planning to go on a date

250
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.359
with a duck in front man?
Oh? Don Dawkin. No. I

251
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.759
never liked Don Dawkins a vocalist.
I really didn't like his band. I

252
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:37.240
did really enjoy and I do have
a lot of praise for George Lynch as

253
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:41.480
a guitar player. But that's another
story for another show. Yeah, back

254
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:44.039
to the fanny pack. Yeah,
so when it came down Yeah, so,

255
00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:45.599
when it came down to keeping your
valuable no, I never no,

256
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.400
no, no to me. It
was embarrassing to look at I think you're

257
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:56.240
lying. No, but well one
at your house just last weekend. The

258
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:00.240
funny thing is fanny packs are still
a thing. Of course, now you're

259
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:04.000
either a cop or or something else, because usually cops are the ones that

260
00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:07.720
are carrying fanny backs. You know, look at the next person who's got

261
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.920
a fannie pack, and mostly their
men, and they're big, genormous,

262
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:15.079
buff guys that are with these fanny
backs. You know they have a gun

263
00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:18.880
in there, that's what they're doing. You know. Rod Steele has shown

264
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:22.720
up to the station and done my
hair many of times with a fanny pack.

265
00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:26.559
And I questioned Rod because I felt
it rubbing against my neck and I

266
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:27.839
said, hey, could you take
off your fanny pack? And he goes,

267
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:32.839
that's not my fatty pack, chag, it's my jag. What you're

268
00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:40.319
fatty? Oh? Good god?
Another thing? That another thing that only

269
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:44.000
if you grew up and lived in
the eighties, will you remember that?

270
00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:48.599
Premiering in nineteen eighty one, offering
twenty four hours of NonStop videos. That's

271
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:55.279
right, MTV and their lineup would
often end up. You would end up

272
00:19:55.319 --> 00:20:02.480
waiting hours just to watch your favorite
three minute video of your favorite artist.

273
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:10.319
And that's when MTV was actually music
television. Yes, I remember. I

274
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:12.720
was not a big fan of MTV
till Madonna came on and I found myself

275
00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:17.319
masturbating to like a virgin over and
over again, just getting ready for a

276
00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:21.359
date with a Wana Madonna that I
had later that evening. Right now here,

277
00:20:21.640 --> 00:20:29.880
here's something stop right there, you're
taking me into another joke. Now

278
00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:33.599
here's something that I'm sure, you
and me both agree upon that we survived

279
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:38.319
and our listeners will synthesize pop music. I mean, Tuscano, You're coming

280
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:42.960
from a musical background. Now,
did you not feel a little bit cheapened

281
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:51.400
by the synthesized addition to music?
I know, when Van Halen came out

282
00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:56.200
Sit the Size Rock, I felt
like I was kicked in the growing dragged

283
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:00.480
across the street. My Draquar noir
was taken away from me. Just told

284
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:04.640
me drug card noir. Oh my
gosh, Now you took me back by

285
00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:07.920
the way. Great cologne. I
love that great cologne. Great cologne.

286
00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:11.559
But no, I didn't feel cheap. And at first, yeah, I

287
00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:15.960
felt like, I don't know if
I like this too much. But then

288
00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:22.039
with the advent of new wave and
and the hardcore new wave you know Duran,

289
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:27.440
Duran and depeche Mode and I don't
know music. Yeah, well,

290
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:33.400
I did end up liking it because
once again I am a lover of all

291
00:21:34.039 --> 00:21:37.720
eighties music, all kinds of eighties
music. Oh yes, hold on,

292
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.839
can I get your crown ready?
As you're claiming yourself the king music,

293
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:47.880
he turned around and go into the
sacred cabinet. I'm going into the sacred

294
00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:53.200
cabinet. I can hear it.
Yeah, I can hear it. Hold

295
00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:57.880
on, Oh, I just dropped
your your crown, emperors your No,

296
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:02.559
the crown is in my hand right
now, it's actually resting upon my jock.

297
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:06.720
Oh, just drop your your emperor's
ring. The show later, yes,

298
00:22:07.160 --> 00:22:10.839
you know when you like to wave
your hands. Oh, personally enjoy

299
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:18.559
oh music. Well, look,
it's not my fault that you don't,

300
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:25.920
your highness, it's not my fault
that you don't. All right, God,

301
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:29.440
we'll digress. That is for definitely
for a different show. Now,

302
00:22:29.519 --> 00:22:32.279
sits a size music. We gotta
go back and sucked. Okay, what's

303
00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:37.400
a no, it did not stop. You know what, I'm gonna give

304
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:41.559
you a mixtape of nothing but uh
duran duran. There. During the nineteen

305
00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:47.279
eighties, everyone had a nagging anxiety
that nuclear war was imminent. And you

306
00:22:47.400 --> 00:22:52.039
remember that in nineteen eighty three's The
Day After, the movie The Day After

307
00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:57.279
was depicting these scenes of nuclear attacks
on the United States and the United States

308
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:03.880
hitting back. People really freaked out
with this movie. And this is something

309
00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:07.119
that people today will never be able
to identify. You know, the younger

310
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:10.960
audiences will never be able to identify
that. They see a war movie and

311
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:14.200
something with nuclear weapons in it,
and it's like, ah, yeah,

312
00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:18.359
it is absolutely nothing. For us, it was terrifying because it was terrifying

313
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:22.720
there was a legitimate threat that was
looming on the horizon. So this movie

314
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:26.079
comes out a lot of people even
thought it was real. Do you remember

315
00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:30.039
this? Yes, I remember that, and one name comes to mind,

316
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:37.200
Ronald Regga, But I totally agree. Well, I don't remember asking for

317
00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:45.000
your opinion, your long haired smell
like the bottom of a marijuana ashtray.

318
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:51.759
Jackass Giskano? Are you Italian?
Yeah, just buffon mentioning my name.

319
00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:56.680
No, Jiscano, please continue.
But so, uh, you know,

320
00:23:56.839 --> 00:24:00.559
the way we saw movies back then, it was something that only we can

321
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:06.559
identify with. So when today you
hear, oh that's some eighties cheesy movie

322
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:10.319
or eighties cheesy flick, yeah we
understand it. But you know, like

323
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:14.480
I've told you guys so many times, these were the first of their kind

324
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:18.119
for us. We had never lived
through anything, anything newer and exciting like

325
00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:22.599
this. So yeah, it was
great. But you know what I find

326
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:27.359
troubling and both a little bit nostalgic
in its own way. Some of the

327
00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:30.920
movies that we did watch, and
we knew that we were possibly up against

328
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:37.000
a catastrophe as that as we look
back at some of these movies. Speaking

329
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:40.119
for myself and my children, and
I did watch a couple of movies with

330
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:44.359
them as they were growing up long
John Silver's Adventure. How of course,

331
00:24:44.680 --> 00:24:49.200
the reality and the fear of those
actions taking place, you don't really realize

332
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:53.079
until you watch that movie again,
and you've probably gotten through the years,

333
00:24:53.680 --> 00:24:59.599
like the topic tonight where we're at, to realize how close that scenario that

334
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:03.079
movie that we saw could have been, if it actually would have happened.

335
00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:07.720
And it's sad because a lot of
the viewers now that kind of believe it's

336
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:11.400
a bunch of malarkey, you know
what I mean, Our movies are.

337
00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:15.240
Yeah, you're too fake. Oh
my god. They if they were to

338
00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:21.640
take some time in study history and
see how close we as a country,

339
00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:25.759
as a world, we're coming to
that catastrophe, it might make them enjoy

340
00:25:25.880 --> 00:25:26.759
that movie a little bit more.
Yeah, what do you think? I

341
00:25:27.319 --> 00:25:30.960
agree? Man, I totally agree. Another one of those things that only

342
00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:37.359
we that lived through the eighties have
experienced was only wearing neon fashion and now

343
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:40.680
these these fashion choices. Of course
we're not all over the United States,

344
00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:45.440
but they were, but but all
over the television, yes, and all

345
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:51.079
over magazines, magazines like Vogue.
The fashion of the color it started in

346
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:53.799
Italy. By the way, the
essential elements of the eighties look were created

347
00:25:53.880 --> 00:26:00.200
by the Memphis design movement, led
by Italian architect They're one's responsible. So

348
00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:04.200
basically, my people, the Italians, you know, we came up with

349
00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:11.200
the abstract designs and the colors,
and that's what was introduced into the eighties.

350
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:15.920
And that's why today when you think
of eighties, you think of all

351
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:18.119
these neon things. But it wasn't
always like that, not always. No.

352
00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:22.720
You a name that comes to mind
as we're discussing this, Andy Warhol,

353
00:26:23.519 --> 00:26:29.400
Remember the great artist Andy Warhol.
Sure a lot of his artwork was

354
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:32.519
brought to face during the eighties,
and I think that kind of changed the

355
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:36.559
art world. And I know a
lot of bands did use a lot of

356
00:26:36.680 --> 00:26:41.240
his artwork on albums. So I
think the eighties kind of brought out Andy

357
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:45.880
Warhol. So a piece of me
when I think of back in the eighties

358
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:49.319
and some of the things that we've
come through. Andy Warhol as a big

359
00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:55.000
fixture on that. Now I've got
a story right here. Let me see

360
00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:57.720
if you remember, some of our
listeners. It took place in nineteen eighty

361
00:26:57.799 --> 00:27:04.559
seven when baby Jessica fell down a
well hole. Eighteen months old, Baby

362
00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:10.599
Jessica fell down the wall, and
we were all captivated to our televisions.

363
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:15.119
We were transfixed, transcended into how
are they going to get her out of

364
00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:18.839
this? How is she still breathing? Is she hurt? Now? Do

365
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:22.799
you remember that? And I asked
that to our listeners. If you have

366
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:26.480
to, if you want to respond, hit us on our Facebook page,

367
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:30.839
hit us on our social media pages, and let us know. Do you

368
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:33.359
remember that incident? I remember it
very well and c and then oh yeah,

369
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:37.640
absolutely. It happened October fourteenth,
nineteen eighty seven. She was only

370
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:42.440
eighteen months old, and by the
way, you know, she's a grown

371
00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:47.000
woman now. She was very lucky
to be alive. But this was one

372
00:27:47.039 --> 00:27:51.759
of those stories that really captivated audiences
all over the United States and all over

373
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:56.519
the world for that matter, as
we saw live when it was occurring on

374
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:00.319
CNN, like if it was something
you know, out of out of a

375
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:03.680
movie, and we saw this,
we saw the rescue workers who worked for

376
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:08.720
fifty eight hours to free baby Jessica
from this well. And then you know,

377
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:12.519
by the way, she underwent fifteen
surgeries for the next few years.

378
00:28:12.599 --> 00:28:17.079
Did you know that? You know
what? I was aware of? Surgeries,

379
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:22.000
not exactly the number, and talking
about endless holes of black emptiness.

380
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:30.880
Ronald Reagan claimed everybody in America become
a godmother or godfather to baby Jessica as

381
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:36.400
she sat in the well. Oh
that's right, Yeah, I'm sorry.

382
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:37.799
You may have to add it that
you like. No, I'm gonna leave

383
00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:42.400
that. I'm gonna leave that in
there. Baby Jessica, Yeah, I

384
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:45.880
remember her, and she's alive and
well today, okay, I got another

385
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:49.000
story. Are you ready for this
one? I think I am. As

386
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:55.200
we just finished up that that story
that captivated us all, A poor innocent

387
00:28:55.279 --> 00:29:00.839
baby gets trapped in an empty,
bottomless pit hole of fear. Who remembers

388
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:08.000
the drug campaign started by First Lady
Nancy Reagan as we're talking about black holes

389
00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:15.559
of emptiness. Who remembers the cliche? Just say no. I was in

390
00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:19.039
high school during this, and I
remember having to write essays on what drugs

391
00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:23.240
can do to you. I remember
having to put ribbons on our fence and

392
00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:32.160
say, as you were doing the
homework preparing for that, I was already

393
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:34.400
on drugs just to be an art
class, to make sure that my bow

394
00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:38.480
looked at better than everybody else exactly, That's what I know. Yeah,

395
00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:44.799
you know what. Every time I
had to recite anything the crooked Reagan's had

396
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:47.640
to say was no on drugs.
I always made sure that my feet,

397
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:51.640
my eyes, and my fingers were
crossed because I could lie and say I'm

398
00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:55.920
not doing drugs, just like they
Lyden said they had no idea the drugs

399
00:29:55.960 --> 00:29:59.279
were getting here. That's all I'm
gonna say. Such a hater, Such

400
00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:02.240
a hater. And that was the
say No to Drugs campaign, right,

401
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:04.599
yes, yes, it was a
yeah, it was a cliche. Yeah,

402
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:07.960
So I'm in I was in elementary
school when that whole thing happened,

403
00:30:08.000 --> 00:30:12.000
and and so you were in different
strokes mode. Now different strokes. Remember

404
00:30:12.039 --> 00:30:15.279
we survived different strokes back in the
eighties. Oh one of my I used

405
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:22.000
to look my show of Different Strokes, which, by the way, today,

406
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:26.119
that show wouldn't fly. You know, two black brothers being adopted by

407
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:30.920
this older, older, wealthy,
conservative white man. That wouldn't fly today.

408
00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:34.039
I think for some reason. No, I think in today's version,

409
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:37.640
one of those brothers would be tapping
the ass of the white sister because they're

410
00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:41.240
not really brother and sister. But
that's that's a whole that's another show.

411
00:30:42.839 --> 00:30:48.359
In nineteen eighty four, okay,
in nineteen eighty four, it's been called

412
00:30:48.440 --> 00:31:03.240
the greatest commercial in Super Bowl history. First created the tiny old history,

413
00:31:03.839 --> 00:31:18.119
a garden of the aw ideology,
but secure from the pissss small power any

414
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:30.000
fleas. We are one one result, one pause, show, talk salstory,

415
00:31:30.599 --> 00:31:41.880
but we've been playing them with that
old shy profane. On January twenty

416
00:31:41.920 --> 00:31:47.759
fourth, Apple Computer will introduce Macintosh, and you'll see why nineteen eighty four

417
00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:52.319
won't be like nineteen eighty four.
When it first aired, most people had

418
00:31:52.400 --> 00:31:56.079
no clue that it what, you
know, what it was trying to do.

419
00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.720
They didn't know this was actually a
commercial for the new Macintosh computer.

420
00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:06.039
It basically treated viewers to, uh
yeah. It was sort of like a

421
00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:09.039
dystopian nightmare in which a Big Brother
lecture was interrupted by a woman in a

422
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:14.519
Bret red shorts hurling a mallet towards
the screen and causing an explosion. Yeah,

423
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:19.240
I mean The commercial was bizarre,
to say the least. Speaking of

424
00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:24.400
bizarre, do you remember that show
Bizarael Jackson coming up? I was gonna

425
00:32:24.440 --> 00:32:28.400
say, speaking of bizarre, do
you remember that show called Bizarre back in

426
00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:31.119
the eighties? Oh? I remember
that show? Didn't super Dave Osborne come

427
00:32:31.160 --> 00:32:35.799
out in Bizarre? Yes, Super
Dave Osbourne? And you know saturly we

428
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:38.279
lost super Dave I think a couple
of years ago. Yeah, you know

429
00:32:38.400 --> 00:32:42.240
he was. He was a pretty
funny guy on the improv. Yeah,

430
00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:45.000
super Dave. You know who would
have played a great super Dave, Will

431
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:51.119
Will Ferrell? Yes, I agree, you know now do you remember in

432
00:32:51.279 --> 00:32:55.759
nineteen eighty three, talking about Bizarre, Michael Jackson did the moonwalk for the

433
00:32:55.920 --> 00:33:02.039
very first time hours singing Billy Jean
on the Motown television special You know who?

434
00:33:04.279 --> 00:33:06.799

00:33:39.559 --> 00:33:44.279
remember in eighty three when he did
the moonwalk. I do now greatest dance

444
00:33:44.319 --> 00:33:46.720
I've ever seen. At that point
in my life, where were you when

445
00:33:46.759 --> 00:33:51.240
you watched him do this on TV? That's what I'm asking I was watching

446
00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:54.559
MTV. I was watching MTV,
and I'll never forget that moment. Yeah,

447
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:59.279
it was our very first time with
cable. We had, if I'm

448
00:33:59.319 --> 00:34:04.279
not mistaken, we had a thirteen
inch or fifteen inch color TV, no

449
00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:07.239
remote control. So my mom decided, you know what, let's get cable.

450
00:34:07.280 --> 00:34:12.119
We'll have a remote control and everything, and so they put on our

451
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:15.760
cable box. I'll never forget.
We had HBO for the very first time

452
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:21.400
in Showtime. I saw my first
pair of boobies on Showtime with a movie

453
00:34:21.440 --> 00:34:30.000
called Cat People and Nice. I'll
tell you a story about my meeting Nastasia

454
00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:32.719
Kinski later. That's where I saw
Michael Jackson do his moonwalk for the very

455
00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:38.920
first time. And I was literally
every kid my age believed, deep down

456
00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:44.880
in there in our hearts that we
were possessed by Michael Jackson's spirit, because

457
00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:50.679
I made my dad buy me penny
loafers, put some pennies in there,

458
00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:57.039
and I practiced a moonwalk everywhere I
could, and I took I take you

459
00:34:57.199 --> 00:35:00.760
for a penny loaf where before Michael
Jackson, I believe you never slipping on

460
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:06.079
it. Never. I always envision
you slipping on your penny loafers when you

461
00:35:06.199 --> 00:35:09.239
left the tennis court and you just
put your rebox in your bag with your

462
00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:15.559
tennis racket, and you slipped on
maybe your lemon colored members only jacket because

463
00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:21.679
it was getting a little brisk.
Never, you're talking to an ex boy

464
00:35:21.719 --> 00:35:25.559
scout. You're talking to a soccer
player who did cycling on the side and

465
00:35:27.000 --> 00:35:30.519
had a four twenty four batting average. How you like that? Wow?

466
00:35:30.920 --> 00:35:36.039
Yeah, that is now I'm picturing
a cowboy looking athlete, maybe like a

467
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:40.760
Mike Schmidt baseball player, muscular build, still wearing penny loafers, like you

468
00:35:40.840 --> 00:35:46.039
just left the tennis court. Picture
picture Puncerello wearing wearing penny loafers. And

469
00:35:46.159 --> 00:35:52.400
playing baseball. Yeah like that,
So I picked I picture a gay Puerto

470
00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:53.760
Rican. Oh wait, not even
Puncerello. No, no, no,

471
00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:59.719
picture Ralph Mocio. Picture Ralph Mocio. Let's go, let's go, let's

472
00:35:59.719 --> 00:36:02.400
go back to bunch Arella. Don't
don't. Don't bring that other guy up.

473
00:36:02.440 --> 00:36:06.039
That that other guy scares me.
Come on, bro, Now,

474
00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:08.880
I'm sure you were at the same
age, so you can you can probably

475
00:36:09.880 --> 00:36:14.599
align yourself. Remember when Smurfs came
out, Well, I don't remember when

476
00:36:14.599 --> 00:36:15.880
they're ly eighties. I don't remember
when they came out, but I did.

477
00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:19.760
I used to watch the Smurfs cartoon
a lot. Yeah. Now do

478
00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:24.000
you remember the voice of Neil Patrick
Harris being in that cartoon? No one

479
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:29.760
of his first acts. I had
no idea who was he smurfet I don't

480
00:36:29.840 --> 00:36:31.400
know, and I really don't care
because I didn't watch, but I thought

481
00:36:31.519 --> 00:36:37.639
I thought that it would be some
great nostalgic stop and you probably pretended you

482
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:42.159
were Papa Smurf getting it on with
Smurfett. Oh yeah, all of them

483
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:45.760
they were. I was like a
Smurf pimp and they were my bitches.

484
00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:50.400
Oh big daddy, what am I
gonna do you're gonna go give him the

485
00:36:50.519 --> 00:36:55.519
blue hole in nineteen eighty five before
it gets X rated. Cartoon X rated

486
00:36:55.679 --> 00:37:00.320
and you make the poor Smurfs look
bad. But in eighty five, the

487
00:37:00.440 --> 00:37:09.480
most famous company on Earth reinvented their
recipe in a mystery Cola I have no

488
00:37:09.639 --> 00:37:15.360
idea number two Pepsi Cola says,
Coke is merely trying to match Pepsi's success.

489
00:37:16.199 --> 00:37:21.039
Coca Cola is ready to launch a
nationwide advertising blitz, and the company

490
00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:24.360
already has sent its butlers of video
pep rally in the War of the Colas.

491
00:37:24.760 --> 00:37:30.159
So let's let a rip, Let's
land on the beaches and go all

492
00:37:30.280 --> 00:37:37.199
the way James mcmahus, CBS News
headline. Of course, the response was

493
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:45.159
overwhelmingly negative. They wrote forty thousand
people wrote letters to Coca Cola demanding they

494
00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:50.960
bring back the original recipe. I
hated that point of time when Coke decided

495
00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:53.000
to change. It was like when
Coke thought, well, we're taking this

496
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:57.960
off and we're going to give you
something new. That was like somebody saying,

497
00:37:58.039 --> 00:38:01.519
hey, don't snort coke, snort
crystal meth. You'll get the same

498
00:38:01.639 --> 00:38:06.440
high and you'll die from sucking.
I mean, come on, what was

499
00:38:06.519 --> 00:38:08.440
coke trying to pull over our eyes? Was it really that bad? Because

500
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:12.119
I don't remember the taste of that. Oh man, dude, it was.

501
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:17.239
It tasted like a hot doctor pepper
with cough medicine. No. Actually,

502
00:38:19.159 --> 00:38:22.320
would you say it tasted like coke
zero today? I'd say it was

503
00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:30.320
like coke zero point eight point negative
or like tab Remember tab cola? Yes,

504
00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:34.800
yes, tab cola was disgusting.
It was a little bit stronger than

505
00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:37.119
tab. You know what. Actually
it tasted like Tab with maybe a little

506
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:39.800
bit of coffee in it. That's
all bad. It was. Yeah,

507
00:38:40.159 --> 00:38:45.400
it's just really crappy, you know. About a week after that, about

508
00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:49.119
a week ago, I went to
the supermarket and I actually saw Coke come

509
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:52.320
out with their new coffee coke.
Have you had this? I've heard of

510
00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:53.639
this. Okay, Well if you
get a chance. Okay, well,

511
00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:57.880
if you get a chance. They're
different flavors, vanilla and that. I

512
00:38:57.920 --> 00:39:01.000
don't I stay away from that.
I got there deep roast coffee coke and

513
00:39:01.239 --> 00:39:07.000
it was good. I like,
yeah, you gotta try. But you're

514
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:10.400
a coffee drinker, yes, I
personally I've never drank coffee. I've never

515
00:39:10.519 --> 00:39:19.320
had done any harder drugs, and
I've never drink tea. I drink tea

516
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:23.199
with the leaves of cannabis on the
side, but if not en tea with

517
00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:30.039
this fritzer on the side. I
enjoyed my tea sweet like my lover.

518
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:35.039
No, I don't drink. How
the queen get in here? A raggedy

519
00:39:35.079 --> 00:39:37.360
old hag. Yeah, so I
knew coke, I don't. I knew

520
00:39:37.480 --> 00:39:44.360
coke to me sucked and it will
forever suck. It's almost like remember when

521
00:39:44.440 --> 00:39:47.519
Pepsi first came out with what was
the name of it, Pepsi Light,

522
00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:52.880
I think with a silver can.
Yeah, it was, it was.

523
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:57.639
It was a shitty at that.
It's the one that Marty McFly asked for

524
00:39:58.079 --> 00:40:01.679
in in the in the Back of
the Future movies. Yeah, gi me

525
00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:06.920
tab dab. I can't give you
a tablets, you order something, Thank

526
00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:09.760
you me Pepsi free? You want
a Pepsi pal you're gonna pay for Yes,

527
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:13.360
you're right now. Did you like
drinking tab? I? Would think?

528
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:20.440
Give me a break. I loved
regular Coca Cola and regular Pepsi,

529
00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:23.039
and I also did the other sodas, you know, mountain dew and uh

530
00:40:23.239 --> 00:40:28.679
I was cooler. I loved Cactus
Schooler. Oh that that stuff. I

531
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:30.360
remember I worked in the liquor store
in the eighties and I used to have

532
00:40:30.519 --> 00:40:34.039
to, you know, stalk that, and I would wonder, who are

533
00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:37.880
these morons buying? Just horrendous right
here you got schol here's one of the

534
00:40:37.960 --> 00:40:39.320
morons. Now. I would oh, sorry, and I know what I

535
00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:43.239
would go. I would go out
of my way to pop holes in those

536
00:40:43.320 --> 00:40:45.159
cans just so they would stay out
the shelves. Nice, I said it.

537
00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:49.760
I also liked, uh, Jolt
Cola, which was probably my favorite

538
00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:52.079
back then. Ah, yes,
Joe Cola. You know what. Joe

539
00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:58.320
Cola to me was like uh,
doing liquid cocaine pretty much, That's pretty

540
00:40:58.400 --> 00:41:00.400
much. But it was really good
with ice. Yeah, but Joe Cola.

541
00:41:00.760 --> 00:41:04.719
If the ice melted too much on
your Joe Cola, you kind of

542
00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:07.880
got that separation taste. Remember,
Yes, you drank nothing but soda water

543
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:12.000
on top, but all the good
essence of that caffeine and was at the

544
00:41:12.039 --> 00:41:15.239
bottom the bottom, and it was
like drinking a shot of whiskey real quick.

545
00:41:15.400 --> 00:41:17.039
It was bad. You get to
the bottom, You're like, oh,

546
00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:21.119
hey, I'll drink all that ship
because I need to run a marathon.

547
00:41:21.719 --> 00:41:24.719
Now here's something I'm sure you're going
to remember. In the eighties,

548
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:31.679
when we found out that Darth Vader
was actually Luke's guy. Walkers never told

549
00:41:31.800 --> 00:41:39.239
you what happened to your father?
He told me, he told me you

550
00:41:39.480 --> 00:42:01.559
killed me. I am your father. That is man that drove Star Wars

551
00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:07.320
franchise fans through the roof. I
mean, that was just one of those

552
00:42:07.400 --> 00:42:15.360
defining moments in that saga that just
has been unparalleled no matter what they try

553
00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:19.760
to do today to make Canni pull
toed the Star Wars legacy. Yeah,

554
00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:23.320
you know what what comes to mind
really quick? And that was by the

555
00:42:23.360 --> 00:42:27.079
way, right, I used to
watch Dallas because they were a bunch of

556
00:42:27.159 --> 00:42:29.440
hot chicks, and I wanted to
be a union. I wanted to be

557
00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:31.800
JR. Union. Sure, you
know, just like knocked people got shot,

558
00:42:31.920 --> 00:42:35.719
killed, have a lot of money, and then some hot chick kill

559
00:42:35.840 --> 00:42:38.840
him. Uh. Now, when
Darth Vader came out and said I am

560
00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:44.880
your father, right, it was
almost like who shot Jr? Because remember

561
00:42:45.320 --> 00:42:49.719
you had that same kind of earthquake
shock to everyone that enjoyed that show and

562
00:42:49.840 --> 00:42:53.159
loved those characters. Who really shot
Jr? Right? When it was Remember

563
00:42:53.199 --> 00:43:00.559
it was Christian Crosby. She was
hot good. The great thing about naked,

564
00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:05.159
the great thing I'm trying to stick
back on the Empire strikes back in

565
00:43:05.239 --> 00:43:08.800
Return of the Jedi scene. You're
talking about being naked with Christian. I

566
00:43:09.000 --> 00:43:15.960
remember standing in line to see Return
of the Jedi. My cousin had taken

567
00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:21.840
me to Eagle Rock Plaza and we
were standing in line and he was teaching

568
00:43:21.880 --> 00:43:24.159
me how to pick up on chicks. And so was this a cousin that

569
00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:28.760
you left drunk in your house when
you and your dad. Oh no,

570
00:43:28.960 --> 00:43:31.920
no, Italian mobsters ware. That
was my friend Mark, Mark from high

571
00:43:31.960 --> 00:43:37.159
school. No, no, No, my cousin, Ralph Ryngel. A

572
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:39.599
big shout out to you, Ralph, who lives in No. He was

573
00:43:39.840 --> 00:43:45.519
teaching me how to pick up on
girls. I'm eleven years old and we're

574
00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:49.559
about to see I think this is
like nineteen eighty three and we were about

575
00:43:49.639 --> 00:43:54.440
to see Return of the Jedi.
And I'll never forget just the anticipation way

576
00:43:54.519 --> 00:43:59.679
of being in line. I had
a box of cracker jacks in line before

577
00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:04.400
we bought the tickets, and he
bought some peanut brittles. See that's stuck

578
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:07.679
to me all these years. I
know even exactly what we were eating walent

579
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:12.840
Line and trying to pick up on
chicks. Yes, well you know what.

580
00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:15.960
On that note, let's take a
quick break. When we come back,

581
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:19.960
we're gonna be talking to more about
those things. And unless you grew

582
00:44:20.079 --> 00:44:23.440
up in the eighties, you have
no idea how it felt. This is

583

00:44:50.159 --> 00:44:55.920

Hits ninety two point five. Maybe later

599
00:46:15.239 --> 00:46:19.639
we're gone in and rant about that, but in the meantime, some of

600
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:22.519
the things that we went through in
the eighties that people nowadays have no idea.

601
00:46:23.000 --> 00:46:29.199
Is the ultimate talking head. The
introduction of Max Headroom, Well,

602
00:46:29.400 --> 00:46:32.639
we saw him for the very first
time on MTV. I think I'd saw

603
00:46:32.719 --> 00:46:36.079
him for the very first time.
Yes, I had no idea what the

604
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:37.800
heck that was or what they were
trying to do. It was kind of

605
00:46:37.880 --> 00:46:44.079
scary. You just have like this
cartoonish face with like a weird slick blonde

606
00:46:44.159 --> 00:46:46.599
hair back and he stuttered. You
didn't know what to think. It was

607
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:50.320
like, whoa wait a minute here, I didn't do enough drugs to try

608
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:52.760
to enjoy this crap. What are
you doing? Yeah? And Max hedrom

609
00:46:52.840 --> 00:46:55.320
was you know, the actor Matt
Frewer and take a little tick a listen

610
00:46:55.440 --> 00:47:00.920
this is a max Hedrom. This
is man max Hedrome, and what you're

611
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:04.400
about to witness is one of the
most sinister sounding intros to a trailer to

612
00:47:04.559 --> 00:47:08.480
one of the greatest epics ever produced
in the history of television. There's more

613
00:47:09.199 --> 00:47:14.639
because you are going to see it
as well. Yes it yes it yes,

614
00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:22.079
namely the Max Syndrome's string story.
And afterwards that is directly following I

615
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:25.039
want to talk to you about something
even bigger, namely my Max Hendrom.

616
00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:31.000
So sit back, relax, and
enjoy. So, speaking of Max Hedrom,

617
00:47:31.199 --> 00:47:35.039
is this a character that gave you
the creeps? Or did you?

618
00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:37.800
Did you end up liking it because
they came up with the actual Max Hedrom

619
00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:40.519
TV show after that, do you
remember? Yeah, they even put him

620
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:45.559
out on videocassette, so he became
really really popular. This was a character

621
00:47:45.679 --> 00:47:51.079
that I thought was I don't know, maybe the mindset I was in at

622
00:47:51.159 --> 00:47:52.719
the time, I thought it was
kind of ridiculous, kind of pass I

623
00:47:52.880 --> 00:47:57.960
was over and done with it after
maybe just the first several times I had

624
00:47:58.000 --> 00:48:00.039
seen it. Once they had made
a show for it, I thought,

625
00:48:00.119 --> 00:48:04.480
Man, this is a really stupid
concept. Who is who? Who is

626
00:48:04.559 --> 00:48:07.320
creating shows like this, but I
was already over and done with Max Headrom.

627
00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:10.320
I was intrigued, like I say, at first couple of first times

628
00:48:10.320 --> 00:48:13.599
I seen him. After that,
it was a bore to me. I

629
00:48:13.719 --> 00:48:17.480
always wondered why they dressed them up
like men in black? Yeah that or

630
00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:22.800
maybe he looked like David Bowie when
David Bowie decided to go straight. Yeah,

631
00:48:22.119 --> 00:48:27.679
yeah, that's right. Now I've
got one for you, my brothers

632
00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:31.119
and sisters, and my fellow brother
Toscano. For one day in nineteen eighty

633
00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:38.079
six, six point five million people
held hands to recognize hunger and homelessness,

634
00:48:38.440 --> 00:48:45.920
creating the human chain across these beautiful
United States. I remember I took part

635
00:48:45.000 --> 00:48:49.239
in this, and you know where
I run. I kind of get a

636
00:48:49.360 --> 00:48:53.519
hippie ish kind of tone, little
melancholy on my belief in unity was the

637
00:48:53.559 --> 00:48:58.960
only way to prosperity is unity.
I remember doing this, and all I

638
00:48:59.039 --> 00:49:01.519
can say now is where is that
spirit? Where is that feeling? Where's

639
00:49:01.559 --> 00:49:06.760
that care? In that compassion?
Where is that forced to be as one

640
00:49:06.880 --> 00:49:09.679
to conquer anything? All we will
do now is turn at each other and

641
00:49:09.840 --> 00:49:14.239
flip a finger with those same hands. Now you're talking about hands, you

642
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:17.719
were talking about hands across America May
twenty five, nineteen eighty six, and

643
00:49:17.840 --> 00:49:22.280
you were one of the six point
five million people that held hands. Yes,

644
00:49:22.679 --> 00:49:27.639
they held hands for fifteen minutes around
the country. I don't I remember

645
00:49:27.760 --> 00:49:31.599
this on TV. I lived in
center Fe Springs. Then nobody was doing

646
00:49:31.639 --> 00:49:35.519
it in the Centifa Springs. Wow. That just yeah, you see,

647
00:49:35.559 --> 00:49:40.320
because they're too too busy shaking their
cryed long spray cans or loading their weapons

648
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:44.480
to kill each other from baudio over
laudio. And you know me, brother,

649
00:49:44.599 --> 00:49:47.519
I'm Some of my buddies called me
as a hippie chollo. They called

650
00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:51.920
me all kinds of stupid things because
on a one point I could turn brutally

651
00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:54.920
ruthless. But I truly believe in
unity, and I wish to God that

652
00:49:55.000 --> 00:50:01.239
we had some type of event like
this to unify us again, because I

653
00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:06.000
think in this day and time,
nobody joins hands. They just flip each

654
00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:08.519
other off. That's true. And
you know, we just got through another

655
00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:15.440
anniversary of ninety eleven and I still
did not see or feel the magnitude of

656
00:50:15.599 --> 00:50:22.280
unity through that anniversary whatsoever at all. And I blame our political system to

657
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:28.639
this day for that Hands across America
something that we truly do need. And

658
00:50:28.760 --> 00:50:32.400
anybody that participated, don't forget who
you are. You shared in something special,

659
00:50:32.840 --> 00:50:37.559
You passed on a vibe that should
now today be alive and relevant.

660
00:50:37.760 --> 00:50:43.840
You know, it's unfortunate, but
I think that whether you're tolerant or intolerant

661
00:50:44.000 --> 00:50:49.320
of any ideologies today, these two
groups, the tolerant and the intolerant,

662
00:50:49.519 --> 00:50:53.920
it's going to be almost impossible to
have them join hands. The making of

663
00:50:54.360 --> 00:51:00.280
an art form in the nineteen eighties
was huge for all of us. I'll

664
00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:05.360
tell you what this art form was. It wasn't like a Spotify or Apple

665
00:51:05.760 --> 00:51:08.800
playlist of today, which you can
add unlimited number of songs and you know,

666
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:13.440
throw together with just a few key
strokes and a few mouse clicks.

667
00:51:14.000 --> 00:51:21.559
Rather, our eighties mixtape meant working
with cassettes and we actually got to write

668
00:51:21.599 --> 00:51:24.159
down what we wanted, hard work
to make a mixtape, a real good

669
00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:28.800
one, a real good one right
where you had to wait sometimes on the

670
00:51:28.920 --> 00:51:32.119
radio for hours or days sometimes to
hear your favorite song or that song that

671
00:51:32.199 --> 00:51:37.119
you really wanted to add to that
mixtape. And what's more, you had

672
00:51:37.159 --> 00:51:40.920
to actually own physical copies sometimes of
the music that you wanted to include if

673
00:51:40.960 --> 00:51:45.440
they didn't play it on the radio. But these mixtapes were wonderful because they

674
00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:50.840
meant a lot to us. It
was a product of our creativity. And

675
00:51:51.599 --> 00:51:55.599
sometimes we created a mixtape for a
good friend, or we traded mixtapes,

676
00:51:57.039 --> 00:52:00.360
and sometimes even a mixtape we would
give to that that special girl or you

677
00:52:00.559 --> 00:52:04.440
as a girl to the special guy. Yes, and I remember, you

678
00:52:04.519 --> 00:52:07.440
know, you choose that the special
songs that mean a lot to you,

679
00:52:07.599 --> 00:52:09.679
and you you write on this tape
and you put it in the box,

680
00:52:09.800 --> 00:52:15.079
and you know, with your best
handwriting, and this thing took the shape

681
00:52:15.280 --> 00:52:22.599
of your creativity, of your artistic
thoughts, and your soul basically went into

682
00:52:22.679 --> 00:52:25.840
making a mixtape. And some people
think, man, that's a little exaggerated,

683
00:52:25.920 --> 00:52:30.320
isn't it. No, it really
took a lot of from us to

684
00:52:30.440 --> 00:52:35.159
make a mixtape and then to share
it with people. Yeah, a mixtape,

685
00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:38.679
brother was kind of like our own
personal radio station, kind of a

686
00:52:40.119 --> 00:52:44.840
word and a sound to our feelings, whether they were positive or negative.

687
00:52:45.199 --> 00:52:47.239
It wasn't that the essence of a
mixtape to you? You know, what

688
00:52:47.480 --> 00:52:52.440
you try to capture. That's exactly
what we did. We designed it.

689
00:52:52.639 --> 00:52:57.000
We crafted it. Today, you
look at a picture of something that says

690
00:52:57.079 --> 00:53:00.440
mixtape, and you kids just see
a piece of plastics there that went in

691
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:05.119
a machine that their parents or their
grandparents played or whatever. They have no

692
00:53:05.239 --> 00:53:10.039
idea what it took to make and
to put those memories on the on that

693
00:53:10.119 --> 00:53:13.840
tape, because it was a lot
more than that piece of plastic. Yes

694
00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:15.880
it was, And I'm really passionate. This is a This is one thing

695
00:53:15.920 --> 00:53:21.000
that I'm really passionate about because i
mean, you know, chang music is

696
00:53:21.159 --> 00:53:25.079
one of those universal languages that can, if allowed, can change the world.

697
00:53:27.159 --> 00:53:30.880
And so our heart and soul went
poured out into this piece of plastic

698
00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:35.280
onto this tape. We just we
made copies of it and we just shared

699
00:53:35.360 --> 00:53:37.440
them and we played them and played
them and played them. And we didn't

700
00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:40.719
have the greatest of tape players back
then, so we got everything. We

701
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:45.360
got the bad sounds, we got, the hiss sometimes we got sometimes we

702
00:53:45.480 --> 00:53:49.679
needed to stick a pencil in it
because it got tangled up. Sometimes if

703
00:53:49.760 --> 00:53:52.760
the tape player was bad, it
would unwind it. We'd have to take

704
00:53:52.800 --> 00:53:55.199
it out. And we were careful
because we didn't want to ruin that mixtape.

705
00:53:55.760 --> 00:54:00.679
You remember sometimes you could even capture
the sound on your tape of you

706
00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:04.519
pressing stop. Yeah, because it
was so abruptly in loud, and you

707
00:54:04.519 --> 00:54:07.559
would be like, oh, now, I recall my one of my very

708
00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:10.239
first tape. That's when you pressed
pause when I was recording. You pressed

709
00:54:10.280 --> 00:54:13.719
pause because if you press stop,
you can hear that click. You can

710
00:54:13.760 --> 00:54:16.280
just hear that click. Now,
my first tape, my first mixtape.

711
00:54:16.320 --> 00:54:20.840
But went out to a girl that
had my heart. I mean she was

712
00:54:21.360 --> 00:54:24.199
a brunette, she was beluptuous,
her lips were like kissing a cloud.

713
00:54:25.679 --> 00:54:28.960
Oh I wish, I wish,
but no, I didn't have that much

714
00:54:29.000 --> 00:54:31.360
money. I wasn't into porn.
I was very younger, and uh I

715
00:54:31.440 --> 00:54:36.760
remember her name was Kareine Perez.
And I fell headed over heels over this

716
00:54:36.880 --> 00:54:42.199
girl. She was my first and
I don't need to go into description of

717
00:54:42.559 --> 00:54:45.000
and I just really fell in love
with her. And when she broke my

718
00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:50.360
heart, I sent her a mixtape
and several songs consisted of led Zeppelin going

719
00:54:50.400 --> 00:54:57.400
to California, Loves a Bitch by
Quiet Riot, Love Stinks by Jay Giles,

720
00:54:57.519 --> 00:55:02.400
Yea, the Bitch Is Back by
Elton John. Wow, somebody was

721
00:55:02.480 --> 00:55:07.039
bitter, oh very bitter. But
I remember when I made that mixtape,

722
00:55:07.800 --> 00:55:13.840
I put every song that I could
think of back in my little head back

723
00:55:13.920 --> 00:55:21.880
then that was anti love to explain
how much she devastated my heart and my

724
00:55:22.039 --> 00:55:25.639
blue balls that would be coming now
they would not be getting relieved anymore,

725
00:55:27.119 --> 00:55:30.800
how she felt my passion, my
love and my anger in my mixtape.

726
00:55:31.239 --> 00:55:34.960
As a matter of fact, now
that we have embarked on K hits,

727
00:55:35.119 --> 00:55:37.480
not at two point five, where
you can get the best eighties music all

728
00:55:37.559 --> 00:55:40.920
the time, tune in any day
of the week, anytime and listen to

729
00:55:40.960 --> 00:55:44.920
one of our great jocks. But
I am going to say, when you

730
00:55:45.039 --> 00:55:47.719
crank on Bang with a chang that
is going to be my mixtape for my

731
00:55:47.880 --> 00:55:52.360
listeners. So listeners, remember you
are the Changsters, Gangsters. There you

732
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:58.840
go, There you go. I
was that promo. One of those other

733
00:55:58.960 --> 00:56:02.679
things that also we lived through and
people today have no idea, is calling

734
00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:09.320
someone to ask them out. We
actually called people. We actually called girls,

735
00:56:09.679 --> 00:56:13.880
and then the girls would call the
guys or they would get phone calls

736
00:56:13.960 --> 00:56:16.360
from guys, and we would check
this out. We would actually talk to

737
00:56:16.480 --> 00:56:23.280
them with our own voice rather than
letting our fingers do the texting. We

738
00:56:23.360 --> 00:56:29.519
would actually pick up the phone,
dial a number, hear it ring,

739
00:56:30.239 --> 00:56:32.800
wait for it ring. Sometimes you
remember this. Sometimes they wouldn't pick up,

740
00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:36.800
but you'd still let it ring twenty
thirty times, and then all of

741
00:56:36.880 --> 00:56:39.159
a sudden you'd hear somebody else pick
up, and they were frustrated that they

742
00:56:39.199 --> 00:56:43.440
had to pick up because on their
end, when the phone's ringing, it

743
00:56:43.599 --> 00:56:47.360
didn't stop, it didn't go to
voicemail, it kept ringing. So they

744
00:56:47.360 --> 00:56:52.920
would answer, sometimes frustrated, and
then if the dad answered up, he'd

745
00:56:52.960 --> 00:56:55.719
either yeah, you'd you'd either hang
up, or you'd wait and they'd finally

746
00:56:55.800 --> 00:57:00.599
go, you know what, stopped
calling? Or they'd go what hold on?

747
00:57:00.719 --> 00:57:02.320
And they finally put the daughter on
the phone. See, yeah,

748
00:57:02.480 --> 00:57:07.480
I always waited for a female voice
because I never wanted to hear that dad,

749
00:57:07.519 --> 00:57:08.559
who is this? I'm gonna pistol
whip you and kill you. You

750
00:57:09.199 --> 00:57:13.039
know, I did never wanted to
hear the dad that I became having four

751
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:15.840
daughters. Who is this? I'm
gonna cremate you and then beat the hell

752
00:57:15.880 --> 00:57:20.199
out of your father with your own
hands. She's not here. Now here's

753
00:57:20.239 --> 00:57:23.960
something I think you'll remember yeah,
this was not on my mixtape, The

754
00:57:24.199 --> 00:57:29.960
Super Bowl Shuffle by the Chicago Bears. Oh Holy No. I hated the

755
00:57:30.039 --> 00:57:34.400
Chicago Bears in the eighties. I
hated every NFL team beside the last side

756
00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:40.159
stupid song that would actually get played
on MTV. Yes, yes, I

757
00:57:40.239 --> 00:57:44.599
hated it. The only Bear I
ever had respect for or like, well,

758
00:57:44.599 --> 00:57:50.119
actually two Bears, Dick Butkas and
Walter Sweet and his Peyton those are

759
00:57:50.199 --> 00:57:55.199
the only two. And I'll always
be angry, changry with the Bears that

760
00:57:55.360 --> 00:58:00.679
year when they gave it to William
the fat ass Fridge to score the only

761
00:58:00.760 --> 00:58:07.360
touchdown that was by right the refrigerator
bryn to Walter Payton. And I'll always

762
00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:14.400
think Mike did call to me,
will always be Mike Dick did by giving

763
00:58:14.440 --> 00:58:19.760
it to the fattest, one hit, wonder slob of an idiot that could

764
00:58:19.800 --> 00:58:25.079
fit five humburgers. Wow, and
not give the glory to the great Walter

765
00:58:25.320 --> 00:58:30.639
Payton built that team around him in
the eighties. That's a changry right there.

766
00:58:30.800 --> 00:58:34.760
Wow, screw you Chicago Bears,
Allie Rams forever. How do you

767
00:58:34.840 --> 00:58:37.280
like that? Wow? Well,
I can't follow that. Well, Buying

768
00:58:37.360 --> 00:58:44.159
your first VCR was something that nobody
could identify with anymore. And I'm still

769
00:58:44.320 --> 00:58:49.000
i gotta tell you, I'm still
nostalgic about this. And I went on

770
00:58:49.199 --> 00:58:52.280
eBay trying to buy a VCR the
day that I went this is a few

771
00:58:52.320 --> 00:58:57.320
weeks ago. But then I kind
of stopped because I was going, what,

772
00:58:57.519 --> 00:59:01.840
seven hundred dollars for a VCR?
What? And my wife brings one

773
00:59:02.039 --> 00:59:06.000
from work because she's a teacher.
She says, look, a parent donated

774
00:59:06.039 --> 00:59:09.000
one of these, and I'm excited. It turned on. I put the

775
00:59:09.079 --> 00:59:13.440
video cassette. It doesn't play.
Oh man, what did you do?

776
00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:19.880
I kicked a living cra You know
there's a rubber band in there that you

777
00:59:19.920 --> 00:59:22.480
could have probably fixed really well.
Now it's in a million pieces, along

778
00:59:22.519 --> 00:59:30.039
with the entire heads there. But
uh but VCRs were already being sold in

779
00:59:30.079 --> 00:59:34.039
the late seventies, of course.
But um but in the eighties, when

780
00:59:34.119 --> 00:59:37.719
you bought a VCR, you know
you were buying the best of the best.

781
00:59:37.880 --> 00:59:40.840
And so that's an experience that not
too many people can identify today.

782
00:59:42.679 --> 00:59:45.199
Yeah, you're right. Now.
I got another one in the nineteen eighty

783
00:59:45.239 --> 00:59:49.519
eight Olympics. I don't know if
you recall the Olympics in the eighties.

784
00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:51.679
I don't know if you really watched
them a lot. I do, yeah,

785
00:59:51.719 --> 00:59:54.559
and I did. No. Do
you remember the diving competition with Greg

786
00:59:55.480 --> 00:59:59.599
Greg lu Gainis when he hit his
hands, he hit his head yep,

787
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.800
and uh didn't he like he blacked
out and he'd like almost died from that?

788
01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:08.880
Yes, he did. And uh
I believe that he had AIDS.

789
01:00:09.360 --> 01:00:14.119
Yes, So that went into a
big old story in itself because they thought,

790
01:00:14.159 --> 01:00:15.880
oh, he t tainted the water
with his AIDS blood. Oh,

791
01:00:16.039 --> 01:00:21.159
that's right, you know what I
mean. I his career was shortly over

792
01:00:21.320 --> 01:00:24.639
after that, but that was something
that I recall that I thought was a

793
01:00:24.800 --> 01:00:31.519
catastrophe on so many parts for the
US, for himself, and for just

794
01:00:31.719 --> 01:00:37.039
being bombarded with hate over you know, his ailment. By the way,

795
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:42.679
and Greg Luganis is still alive.
He's actually sixty old. I bet you

796
01:00:42.760 --> 01:00:45.960
he looks great. Well, I
don't know, I don't know. I

797
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:52.320
think he does. Rodsfield would probably
he could swim in my pool of my

798
01:00:52.519 --> 01:00:55.760
eyes. My eyes are like pools. One of the things that we were

799
01:00:57.840 --> 01:01:02.960
definitely introduced to a lot in the
eighties, and that was all the infomercials

800
01:01:04.519 --> 01:01:08.760
for the dying Ethiopian children. Do
you remember that. Yes, they started

801
01:01:08.960 --> 01:01:16.000
all these types of charitable events and
charitable agencies to help out the Ethiopians.

802
01:01:16.800 --> 01:01:21.000
Yes, it was just heartbreaking to
see. I remember as a kid when

803
01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:22.239
these would come on, I would
go, oh, not again, and

804
01:01:22.280 --> 01:01:27.320
you would see the poor kids with
the flies around their face, and you

805
01:01:27.400 --> 01:01:31.880
couldn't believe that this was happening in
the eighties. Yeah. On that note,

806
01:01:31.920 --> 01:01:37.440
who could forget rocking out with Live
Aid? Could? I could forget

807
01:01:37.519 --> 01:01:39.639
because I didn't go. Man,
I mean, how could you ever forget

808
01:01:39.760 --> 01:01:42.880
Live Aid? I don't care how
old you were, I don't care if

809
01:01:42.920 --> 01:01:45.199
you were there, if you watch
it on TV. Yeah, that was

810
01:01:45.360 --> 01:01:49.760
fantastic. The greatest act of the
entire day. Who came from the late

811
01:01:49.840 --> 01:01:54.039
great King of Queen Freddie Mercury,
who knew he was battling age and still

812
01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:58.960
went out there and gave probably one
of the greatest rock and roll ass kicking

813
01:01:59.039 --> 01:02:04.239
performances, performances as a lead singer. I think Freddie Mercury became to me

814
01:02:05.119 --> 01:02:07.679
he took the crown off of Alvis
Presley and said, sit out, fat

815
01:02:07.760 --> 01:02:13.280
boy on the toilet, I'm the
new King. Freddie Mercury is just a

816
01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:19.159
God sent hero in my eyes to
battle all the hoop law that he got

817
01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:22.679
for being gay, being a bisexual
and then having AIDS and having to hide

818
01:02:22.760 --> 01:02:27.559
it, and then to come out
with it and be so tattered and torn

819
01:02:27.679 --> 01:02:30.400
that he didn't want to admit it
and to die the way he did,

820
01:02:30.679 --> 01:02:34.719
right, And nobody gave him the
props for dying with the AIDS virus until

821
01:02:34.800 --> 01:02:38.320
after. Shame on America, Shame
on the world for shunning people with that

822
01:02:38.519 --> 01:02:42.679
disease of course, and us losing
the people that we did to it.

823
01:02:42.920 --> 01:02:45.719
I agree, man, especially a
band like Queen. You know, dude,

824
01:02:47.440 --> 01:02:52.400
that everything they touched, everything that
they recorded, became a hit.

825
01:02:52.639 --> 01:02:58.719
Every single song that you would hear
on their albums was a freaking amazing piece

826
01:02:58.760 --> 01:03:01.880
of work, it was. And
remember on that same show, it was

827
01:03:02.039 --> 01:03:07.599
the reunion of led Zeppelin. Yeah, remember that, and that was out

828
01:03:07.760 --> 01:03:13.320
without John Bonham. Correct. So
that was also a very historic in the

829
01:03:13.519 --> 01:03:19.320
rock world where you had such two
great iconic rock bands come together for the

830
01:03:19.679 --> 01:03:22.199
benefit, and the benefit raised a
lot of money for the charity, which

831
01:03:22.280 --> 01:03:27.280
was great. But you had so
many great artists on that ticket and the

832
01:03:27.440 --> 01:03:31.480
and the great thing about that is
everybody put their hearts and their stolen and

833
01:03:31.599 --> 01:03:36.800
the eagles were left at the door
for one cause. For the bands that

834
01:03:36.920 --> 01:03:40.480
were there and the form the independent
artists that were there as well, it

835
01:03:40.679 --> 01:03:45.239
was their greatest moment of all.
I think, yes that have their careers,

836
01:03:45.639 --> 01:03:49.599
it has been. For the bands
that performed and the artists that performed,

837
01:03:49.960 --> 01:03:53.559
it was the greatest performance and the
performance that they will probably never forget.

838
01:03:54.400 --> 01:03:58.159
Yeah, I think everybody did a
bang up job. I watched that

839
01:03:58.280 --> 01:04:00.480
show from start to end. You
know, there was bands in it that

840
01:04:00.559 --> 01:04:02.719
I really didn't care for, but
you know what, I gave it to

841
01:04:02.880 --> 01:04:05.639
them because, hey man, you're
out there for charity. What better way

842
01:04:05.679 --> 01:04:09.559
to be human beings than to go
out there and make as stand for people

843
01:04:09.599 --> 01:04:14.000
that can't stand up for themselves.
This is the one and only Back to

844
01:04:14.199 --> 01:04:17.880
the Eighties Radio and now I want
you to take a mental time machine.

845
01:04:18.239 --> 01:04:23.079
And unfortunately, if you're listening to
us on one of the podcast platforms,

846
01:04:23.159 --> 01:04:25.960
you won't be able to hear it. But go to k Hits ninety two

847
01:04:26.000 --> 01:04:29.679
point five on our link through our
Facebook page. Back to the Eighties Radio

848
01:04:30.039 --> 01:04:35.079
and here's the one and only Freddie
Mercury with Queen and Radio Gaga at Live

849
01:04:35.159 --> 01:04:43.760
Aid. I'm Captain Laggins and your
honor cruise. You're listening to back to

850
01:04:43.880 --> 01:04:53.840
the eighties. You were back back
to the eighties. That was the late

851
01:04:53.960 --> 01:04:57.480
Brayton, of course, the greatest
singer of all time, Freddie Mercury with

852
01:04:57.719 --> 01:05:01.280
Queen from Live Aid. One of
the greatest concerts of all time through all

853
01:05:01.320 --> 01:05:05.360
of mankind. Uh. This is
Chang from Tisconowan. Chang. I want

854
01:05:05.400 --> 01:05:36.760
to ask you all who remembers spending
the morning at Peewee's Playhouse? Remember that?

855
01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:42.519
Okay, so here's the thing.
I remember the program, but not

856
01:05:42.639 --> 01:05:45.840
because I watched it because I thought
it was dumb. I did, like

857
01:05:45.039 --> 01:05:50.480
I did like the movie, you
know, Peewee's Big Adventure, The Big

858
01:05:50.519 --> 01:05:59.360
Top Peewee. But but I never
watched a program because I thought it was

859
01:05:59.400 --> 01:06:01.159
a little bit too childish, a
little bit too creepy, especially with a

860
01:06:01.199 --> 01:06:06.360
big especially with a big chair chasing
you. Um. Yeah, No,

861
01:06:06.639 --> 01:06:14.920
I do remember it though, Baby
morning, that's the breakfast. Can I

862
01:06:15.400 --> 01:06:21.199
miss that cheese cereal? Okay,
I've been in the pool. Don't keep

863
01:06:21.239 --> 01:06:27.400
my cereal? So you know what. I also remember I also remember Mullet

864
01:06:27.519 --> 01:06:33.639
Peewee being caught at the Pussycat Theater. Oh he would I think he needed

865
01:06:33.719 --> 01:06:42.079
the spoon, He needed a sexual
temperance spoon. He kind of looked like

866
01:06:42.159 --> 01:06:45.400
creepy rock and roll guy. I'm
just trying to cherub. What are you

867
01:06:45.559 --> 01:06:48.119
doing? Look at meat. I
wonder if he pulled his pass and he

868
01:06:48.159 --> 01:06:56.679
goes, I'm on a breakfast there
like nine to eleven. Everyone who was

869
01:06:56.719 --> 01:07:00.880
alive in the eighties knows exactly where
they were on January twenty eight, nineteen

870
01:07:00.920 --> 01:07:03.760
eighty six. It was on this
day that the tenth flight of the Space

871
01:07:03.800 --> 01:07:09.960
Shuttle Challenger, which carried the five
NASA astronauts and a civilian school teacher,

872
01:07:11.400 --> 01:07:16.360
exploded in just seventy three seconds into
flight, killing everybody on board. I

873
01:07:16.760 --> 01:07:23.239
was in the sixth I'm sorry,
sixth or seventh seventh grade, I think

874
01:07:23.320 --> 01:07:28.840
I was, and we were watching
it in our science class, and we

875
01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:32.960
had no idea what had happened.
And when the teacher saw this, I'll

876
01:07:33.079 --> 01:07:40.000
never forget the teacher's expression. She
covered her mouth in shock because she had

877
01:07:40.239 --> 01:07:45.480
she knew exactly what had happened,
and told us but she was straightforward and

878
01:07:45.599 --> 01:07:47.599
she told us she didn't turn the
TV off, she left it on and

879
01:07:47.920 --> 01:07:53.480
we finished it. But we were
just devastated at what we had just seen.

880
01:07:54.079 --> 01:07:57.440
I didn't know what to think.
I mean that that was as shocking

881
01:07:57.519 --> 01:08:00.599
to me as hearing the news that
John Lennon died, because I just couldn't

882
01:08:00.639 --> 01:08:04.119
believe that that occurred in front of
all of our eyes, and you know,

883
01:08:04.280 --> 01:08:08.760
the build up that it had,
and you know, the happiness and

884
01:08:09.639 --> 01:08:13.039
excitement we all felt for those astronauts. You know, it was the first

885
01:08:13.079 --> 01:08:15.199
time thing in history, and then
for it to go down there like that,

886
01:08:15.439 --> 01:08:18.680
and then to think about man that
could have been my parent, my

887
01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:23.640
uncle, my aunt, my brother, my sister, my teacher. It

888
01:08:23.880 --> 01:08:27.760
was like it was riveting. And
I don't know, I can't speak for

889
01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:30.079
a lot of people, but I'll
speak for myself. I lost a lot

890
01:08:30.159 --> 01:08:34.479
of respect for the space program,
and I started thinking, we're throwing a

891
01:08:34.520 --> 01:08:38.840
lot of money into the space program
just to send people up there like guinea

892
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:44.319
pigs, and we have so many
things down here on Earth that we need

893
01:08:44.439 --> 01:08:48.640
to fix for the betterment of mankind. So it definitely tarnished my outlook on

894
01:08:48.800 --> 01:08:56.039
NASA, but definitely left an impression
on me on truly feeling that those people

895
01:08:56.960 --> 01:09:00.560
were someone's family and how devastating that
was to us as a country and to

896
01:09:01.600 --> 01:09:04.720
us that know what it's like to
love in a family. I agree,

897
01:09:04.760 --> 01:09:10.000
man, you know we're not going
to have enough time to go into everything

898
01:09:10.079 --> 01:09:14.520
that we did in the eighties that, of course, people today will have

899
01:09:14.640 --> 01:09:19.000
no idea. However, there is
one thing before we end the show tonight

900
01:09:19.039 --> 01:09:25.279
that I didn't want to talk about
because it was something that when you were

901
01:09:25.439 --> 01:09:29.279
an older teen, when you were
a team that was into girls, and

902
01:09:29.399 --> 01:09:32.119
then if you were a young man
that was into girls, of course you'll

903
01:09:32.199 --> 01:09:36.399
never forget. If you were a
rock lover, and if you were an

904
01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:42.800
MTV lover, you'll never forget that
moment when you saw that video of Tanni

905
01:09:42.880 --> 01:09:48.880
Kitain flying on top of those Jaguars. That was probably one of the greatest

906
01:09:49.079 --> 01:09:55.239
videos of all time. And I
would I would drool just to watch that

907
01:09:55.520 --> 01:09:58.479
video. I would, as a
matter of fact, I would put record

908
01:09:58.560 --> 01:10:01.960
on my video cassettes and just wait
to that video came on because it was

909
01:10:02.039 --> 01:10:08.039
just but it was she was breathtaking. I mean, there was two chicks

910
01:10:08.079 --> 01:10:11.359
back in the eighties that I recall
being a rocker dude that I was just

911
01:10:11.520 --> 01:10:15.600
like boom, all the blood left
my body and went to one area with

912
01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:19.760
Tonny Kittain and the chick that was
on the warrant She's my cherry Pie video

913
01:10:20.159 --> 01:10:24.439
that hot blonde married the lead singer. And I used to think that guy

914
01:10:24.680 --> 01:10:30.079
is hideous. He's hideous and he's
got that gorgeous woman. Sadly enough that

915
01:10:30.199 --> 01:10:32.600
you know, he did die,
I believe in the nineties. I don't

916
01:10:32.640 --> 01:10:36.199
know if it was an overdose,
but you know, he lost everything that

917
01:10:36.279 --> 01:10:41.279
he had. You know, he
ended up taking his own life. Well.

918
01:10:41.319 --> 01:10:44.560
You know, Tony Kittain was somebody
who was in the scene, the

919
01:10:44.680 --> 01:10:47.119
rock scene, and she would go
out with a lot of these rock stars

920
01:10:47.279 --> 01:10:53.039
and ended up marrying the main dude
from White Snake, you know, and

921
01:10:53.199 --> 01:11:00.479
that they had a very a very
un abrupt divorce. She was highly toxic

922
01:11:00.600 --> 01:11:08.399
and she also married an angel's picture
back in the late I don't know if

923
01:11:08.439 --> 01:11:13.520
it was the late eighties, maybe
the nineties, Chuck Finley, and he

924
01:11:13.720 --> 01:11:15.840
divorced her because she was you know, she would try hitting him. She

925
01:11:15.960 --> 01:11:20.159
was hooked on drugs and alcohol.
And pills, so she had a very

926
01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:25.640
tumultuous life. I think after that
video, her sex appeal got her too

927
01:11:25.720 --> 01:11:29.600
much fame too fast. And then
I guess, living in that scenario,

928
01:11:29.800 --> 01:11:34.199
you know where you're a sex idol, you're a sex goddess. Every testosterone

929
01:11:34.279 --> 01:11:40.800
driven long haired individual team and short
haired and short haired individuals team as well.

930
01:11:41.239 --> 01:11:44.760
And then we felt very sad when, of course, when she passed

931
01:11:44.760 --> 01:11:47.000
away, but before that, when
she just destroyed her face with all these

932
01:11:47.079 --> 01:11:51.680
plastic surgeries, she was a different
person. She looked like she got in

933
01:11:51.720 --> 01:11:56.199
a fight with a bees or a
wasp nest. And I felt really bad

934
01:11:56.279 --> 01:11:58.720
for that, and I was like, man, where was raid when you

935
01:11:58.880 --> 01:12:01.520
needed it? Honey? This is
the one and only back to the eighties

936
01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:05.439
radio. We're gonna have to leave
this program till next week and we'll finish

937
01:12:05.520 --> 01:12:09.600
it up. I mean, we
can literally talk for years about things that

938
01:12:09.640 --> 01:12:12.319
we used to do in the eighties
that this generation will never know. But

939
01:12:12.800 --> 01:12:16.600
we can bring up as many stories, as many beans beastings as she took

940
01:12:16.640 --> 01:12:23.159
in the face to have that fight. Six we'll continue our talk about things

941
01:12:23.239 --> 01:12:26.600
that only people who lived in the
nineteen eighties will remember. Next week.

942
01:12:27.079 --> 01:12:30.920
In the meantime, I just ask
that you be safe, that you take

943
01:12:30.000 --> 01:12:34.199
care of one another, look after
each other, be the best human be

944
01:12:34.720 --> 01:12:39.760
that you can. This is Tiscano, God bless what a way to end

945
01:12:39.800 --> 01:12:43.840
this show. Oh my god,
Missus Beasley would hate us. You guys

946
01:12:43.880 --> 01:12:46.600
all out there, have a fantastic
week and remember stay lifted and gifted.

947
01:12:46.720 --> 01:12:51.159
Remember to stand up for something bigger
than yourself, or stand up for somebody

948
01:12:51.199 --> 01:12:55.840
who can stand up for themselves.
So until next Friday, I want to

01:12:55.880 --> 01:13:02.479
