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
old guy rage. Mark back.
6:55
Let's let's rage without moving. Rage
6:57
against my ankle. You
7:01

7:03
it's oh, you went and had tickets that show, you
7:05

7:38
band show, the the stadium tour,
7:40
which sold out Milwaukee last night.
7:43
Brett's calling Namar. That thing was supposed to go in
7:45

twenty is original area. And they they oh,
7:49
we'll look at that. No. Not next year. Twenty twenty
7:51

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

8:18
they're Yo. A lot of people,
8:20

8:22
that kind of send off globally
8:24
is amazing. I love it. Well, people are
8:26
wrong. A hammer
8:28
kiss. They're just wrong. They don't get it. I agree. They don't
8:30
get it. They don't understand. I mean, you don't you don't have to go
8:32
watch them or anything, but they don't But and those are the people
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

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

Costco. but I'll if I ever do, I'll
10:26
check it out. A quarter pound, I would sometimes I would
10:28
just go to Costco for lunch. Really?
10:30
Yeah. Oh, actually. a slow run. I thought
10:32
there was another item that they weren't gonna change the
10:34
price on too. Don't realize. Okay. Good. Not
10:36
just the hotdog. There was another thing that they weren't
10:38

here. So Which is not gray goose by the
10:50
way? No. And that's the urban
10:52
legend floating around, but it's not gray goose spot
10:54
right now. The the combo is is
10:56
a is a quarter pound hotdog and a
10:58
twenty ounce So for a dollar
11:00
fifty, it says if they raised
11:02
it on on par
11:04
with with inflation now, it should cost
11:06
about four dollars and thirteen cents. but
11:08
they're not gonna do that. They're gonna leave it
11:10
right there, buck fifty for your hotdog. They

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.
15:03
A lot of the ballparks, I think, have have
15:05
have put it on to, like, an app ordering
15:07
system. Major League Park. I can see Yeah. Major
15:09
League Park. But I but I was in the Major League
15:11
Park recently. I walked and ordered face to
15:13
face with the person. Sure. You know, I
15:15
think Ameritrade and Scooby's not called
15:17
Ameritrade anymore. The the word of College Workspace.
15:19
They'll look at you and ask you what you
15:21
want. Yeah. You know, don't don't say
15:23
them old fashioned that way. That's what
15:25
it should be. What do you want? I think it was
15:27
Dodgers Stadium. I saw this year started
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
know, get a hotdog. Yeah. That's what
15:47
they do at Costco. Hot the words hot button on
15:49
you now. Well, anywhere.
15:51
Right. Hit
15:54
my hot that button.
15:55
You were listening to the ton and
15:57
tighter radio empire.
