1:01

You were listening to the Todd entitled

1:03

Radio Empire. And

1:05

then we saw Titus Rand during the

1:07

pregame there, the only one that we call it

1:09

anymore. The countdown. Countdown. Alright.

1:11

Went and saw his show the other

1:13

night. It was amazing. And it's funny. The

1:15

the carrying monsters show was about his

1:18

personal life and his family life and all the stuff

1:20

that went wrong and, you know, and

1:22

as divorced and as kids, and he just

1:24

lays it out there. And in

1:26

fact, III googled Titus's

1:28

first wife, and she

1:31

was hot, but she apparently was really

1:33

crazy if you if you watch a special Okay.

1:37

But I should bring up the next year.

1:39

Ex wife was hot next time I see. Yeah.

1:42

I never know his ex wife, but you I just googled

1:44

Titus's ex wife, and there's a bunch of pictures of

1:46

them on red carpets and, you know, she was a good looking

1:48

lady. still is, but she's a parent or panias.

1:50

So he did that whole show, and it

1:53

was about his family stuff.

1:55

And he threw in just like two things at the end

1:58

You you you can get the stage right away. See,

2:00

I'm not gonna be political, I guess, Twitter. I'm just not

2:02

gonna be political. This is about my family, blah blah blah. So I'm

2:04

thinking, okay. That lets the but the audience

2:06

knows Titus. They know Caesar forgot.

2:08

You know where he lands? Right. Yeah. They do.

2:11

But at the end, he made a couple of jokes

2:13

about people never happen to go to jail like the

2:15

Trump administration. He did those he threw two

2:17

quick ones in there, and nobody in Trump administration

2:19

has to pay for anything, blah blah. which is true. They

2:21

don't have to pay for anything. And nobody says anything.

2:23

But the zero side effects show he'd

2:25

done which I'd never seen.

2:27

and I've watched was all politics. It

2:30

was all about the COVID and politics

2:32

and hammering, you know, and the the the orange

2:35

dictator

2:36

try to drive it. They're they're great. And

2:38

I'm thinking, I want to ask them. I forgot to ask them that

2:40

one. I said, how how would you do that show? because

2:42

even though people know where you stand,

2:44

somebody showed up at that and

2:46

was gonna go back back, you know, can

2:48

people do that Lewis Black? Lewis Lewis tells

2:51

us that. Right. Well, that Lewis's I

2:53

hope Lewis Black isn't political tonight.

2:56

Exactly. And they it should and

2:58

and somebody yells at Lewis Black, every time.

3:00

I've been I've been reading a bunch of stories here recently.

3:03

You know, rage against the machine is back out on

3:05

two. Oh, glad you brought this up. And and apparently, a

3:07

bunch of people on on social media are like, Well,

3:09

I like these blue guys better when they were not

3:11

political. Like, what? What?

3:13

So before they were a being Yeah. Yeah.

3:15

They play in front of a bunch of script that says,

3:17

you know, transgenders are people -- Yeah. --

3:19

all kinds of liberal things. It's called rage

3:21

against the machine. It's always been

3:23

political. This is the stuff they've been standing up

3:25

for since day one. Right. the machine

3:28

against which they rage. Again, they

3:30

put up something about the the treatment of natives

3:32

on a screen in camp. I saw that yesterday.

3:34

Yeah. Just shut up. And you know what? I

3:36

remember a buddy of ours used to go see Dave

3:38

Matthews. I think Dave Matthews sucks, but I

3:40

know people like him. But Dave Matthews is real

3:42

liberal guy, and he says liberal stuff on stage.

3:44

or she just showed up. But then don't go see

3:46

him. Yeah. I mean, I'm not gonna see Ted Nugget

3:49

or Kid Rock, and he I never never go see Kid

3:51

Rock, but I used to watch Ted Nugget back in the

3:53

day. I like Ted. But now he's gonna

3:55

say Jacky has stuff on stage. I think I'm just not gonna

3:57

go to the show. You know, I don't care. If you're just

3:59

now realizing the rage against the machine

4:01

has a political agenda, you you either

4:03

figured out that they're a band or you're just not been

4:05

paying attention for thirty. That's what drove me crazy

4:08

about this story. That's what Coats retrieved about

4:10

this story. Right exactly. About that story push.

4:12

Is it was ever a big fan and I

4:14

knew exactly what they were coming from. They were called

4:16

rage against the machine. I was familiar with their lyrics

4:18

and and what they stood for. They were

4:20

total Libtard Cox Yeah. Like all of

4:22

us. Yeah. But we say that. We we

4:24

I'm truly dear, man, by the way. That

4:26

band is that band is solidly in Nick and

4:28

I's, you know, wheelhouse, but and everybody

4:31

are age, if you had half a brain

4:33

and were paying attention, you realize what was going

4:35

on. Well, here we should do with that. They're the ones that

4:37

were bitching because new right.

4:39

New fans to that band. They they've been

4:41

toured in three years to a third, what, ten

4:44

Eleven eleven years. Okay. So And people that

4:46

went really want to go see them this time around were

4:48

old fans. Yeah. And they

4:50

never knew from the beginning. You

4:53

have to be just dumb. You you're

4:55

dumb. Yeah. You're you have to be just dumb. Yeah. Yeah.

4:57

that didn't make any sense to me. Oh, wasn't

4:59

he a Polycyne major? Tom

5:01

Morales. Tom Morales. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Harper.

5:03

Yeah. Harper. hangs

5:04

out with it. I I could see them gaining

5:07

new face because I I remember -- Wow. --

5:09

because being, like, fifteen years old and

5:11

just having it turned up real loud

5:13

in my room was a few. I won't what you

5:15

tell me. At that point, the machine was, I

5:17

get you all my parents. Some

5:21

people say she's still a machine. I get that.

5:23

I get that. I got Craig.

5:25

Whoever Craig, Jesus. Chloe, I'm just

5:27

gonna go through the list anymore. Oh,

5:29

okay. Nick.

5:31

His name is Nick. I totally get that, Nick.

5:33

But I I but I'm still thinking it but

5:35

I don't think the seventeen year old kid's shown up

5:37

today or No. Shut up. drump.

5:39

So I'm thinking the people that were around for a

5:41

long time went and saw him and or bitching about

5:44

shut off. I wonder what the Like,

5:46

the I saw wardrobe looks like if the crowd

5:48

had sex. I went to see the smashing pumpkins a

5:50

couple years ago. Yeah. What was that? A lot of uh-oh.

5:53

Oh, we got dogs. The dogs are up. Dogs

5:56

are up. I thought they were. You're trim

5:58

the toenails. Your house was falling down.

6:01

But in the crowded, especially, poke a

6:03

lot of bright colored, you know, golf shirts

6:06

and stuff like that. That would have been just

6:08

shades of gray and black. Oh, yeah. I'm

6:10

respectful of that. Good day. Yeah.

6:12

Yeah. Real happy. I wonder if that's what it looks like I

6:14

have resumed the the rage crowd is a bit

6:16

more authentic. No. We had a we

6:18

had our our Annaly's with Sawman Chicago.

6:20

Right? Yeah. Oh, yeah. So she could probably check-in this

6:22

morning if she's listening. And she was at the

6:24

show where where Zach, like,

6:26

messed up his foot and had to He

6:28

was, like, sitting on the side of the stage on

6:30

a road case to finish the show. That's hilarious.

6:33

Because, obviously, he went back out on stage after

6:35

eleven years and It doesn't

6:37

move like he used to and tried to move

6:39

like he used to and pulled something right

6:41

away. I thought it was a lag. I think he might actually

6:43

broke so because it's like he He's in the

6:45

twenty five anymore. Yeah. He's in the biggest

6:47

second show in. Cracked. Oh. Oh.

6:50

Yeah. Kinda. old

6:53

twenty is original area. And they they oh,

7:49

7:53

And I I guess from what I've read, they're they're gonna

7:55

take that thing to Europe maybe next year.

7:57

Why not? Take that same lineup and

7:59

do stadiums in Europe. Really, they're selling

8:01

places out. Yep. You know, I was making money

8:03

8:26

wrong. A hammer

8:28

kiss. They're just wrong. They don't get it. I agree. They don't

8:30

8:32

8:34

that should go watch it. Right? But they're

8:36

like, what? And say what you want about

8:38

what music sells? When it comes

8:40

to concerts, it's rock band.

8:43

Nobody wants the other crap and cons. Rock bands

8:45

are the ones. I mean, look look around when

8:47

when, you know, when they put that that stadium

8:49

tour sold out. Right. Springstein's gonna put a

8:51

bunch of US dates on on sale

8:53

this this week. They'll go in rock minutes.

8:55

The rock rock rolls the concert world.

8:57

Yeah. The other stuff's not concert worthy.

8:59

That's why. It's just not, you know.

9:01

But who cares? You know? What brain play

9:03

your DJ music? Nobody cares. And

9:05

every once in a while, Garth comes around,

9:07

God. Yeah. No. I'll be there.

9:10

Or Eric Church. I'll

9:13

be in the thunderbolts. I

9:16

just see a story for Nick here. I

9:19

I saw this one on Friday. I think after

9:21

we left, you know, a lot of prices

9:23

going up, everybody's paying more for

9:25

everything. but Costco taking

9:28

a stand. The hot dog

9:30

will not be getting a price

9:32

increase. They never will. I

9:34

guess I think There's a famous story about that

9:36

where the dude that runs Costco. Somebody had

9:38

mentioned that and he's like, you raise that price and I'll kill

9:40

you. Oh, really? How much does the HotDollar cost? What's

9:42

fifty? Okay. cheese people. No.

9:45

No. Is it amazing? Yeah. Alright.

9:47

And it's and it's been that way it's been

9:49

that way since nineteen eighty five.

9:51

They said the prep it's a it's a a

9:53

dollar fifty hotdog and soda

9:55

combo. Hold it, man. That's a lot of money. Which means

9:57

it was a horrible market. big,

9:59

big, honeymoon pile. Yeah. marking up in

10:01

eighty five was That's a lot. In eighty five. It's

10:03

10:28

a is a quarter pound hotdog and a

10:58

twenty ounce So for a dollar

11:00

I don't know if the onion and cranker

14:20

is back or not. I think I did that

14:22

during -- as a COVID. Yeah. -- with

14:24

the onion. cranker. Well, that being

14:26

started chewing up with the bark on my onions

14:28

last night. You see that you see that a

14:30

ballpark student? I think we start a ballpark setting a

14:32

weight on you anymore. It's stupid. yeah

14:35

Are you here? And you I go to the the ballpark and the

14:37

guy looks at you when you I go. I have

14:39

a hot dog. He just points his pad in front of

14:41

him.

14:41

I'm thinking, by

14:42

the sun shining off that, I can't see

14:44

it. And it it is. Should I go, okay. Well,

14:46

I'll try this. If you're standing right

14:48

here, dude, I know that you gotta do

14:50

that. he waste me to plug all

14:52

this stuff in and he just turns around and gets it.

14:54

I mean, what how stupid is that? Yeah. It's dumb.

14:57

It's dumb, man. Where is this? Major league

14:59

ball? No. The one in our town.

15:01

Oh, okay. a lot of the I haven't been this season. Yeah.

15:05

have put it on to, like, an app ordering

15:07

system. Major League Park. I can see Yeah. Major

15:09

15:19

They'll look at you and ask you what you

15:21

15:29

doing an app ordering system where you

15:31

can order your from your Well, so it's ready to go when you

15:33

get up there. Yeah. And you you just skip the line, you walk

15:35

right up to the window, pick up your stuff, and go.

15:37

That's great. That's convenient though. I like

15:39

that. I get to Pat if they're busy, but if

15:41

it is just standing there, just, you know,

15:43

hit the hotdog button and -- Right. -- you

15:45
