Today on The Morning Mosh Pit, we’re cranking up the volume and the weirdness!

Foo Fighters and Nine Inch Nails just swapped drummers—no, seriously.

Paramore’s Haley Williams is dropping new music.

We’ll hit you with five quick stories to wake up your brain, and talk about instant deal-breakers on dating apps (you know the ones: holding fish or still living with mom).

It’s Thirstday too—so what are you drinking tonight?

Speaker 3 (13:29):
There are certain things that we don't love, Like there
are deal breakers that we all have built in us
when we're talking to somebody on the dating app. Specifically
of course BuzzFeed has an article and it's all hush
bash as I like, so I'm just gonna I'm just
gonna talk to my people in a room. Maria and Michael,
what are some very specific deal breakers that you have

(13:51):
as you're if you're in a dating scene.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Well, I'm not.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
That's why I say. That's why I phrase, you.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
Know, I first of all, if you got weird pictures
and I'm not even starting, you know, it's not gonna happen.
If you're zoomed in't too close on your face.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
So that was that was one of the things that
was listed, is just using your photos to try to
draw attention without using any words.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Yeah, but also when you have like conflicting things on
your profile, like like yeah, I want kids in marriage
and also I'm looking for something casual.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
What do you want? You don't know what you want?
How about you, Mikey, Well, like a no go if
I'm scrolling like, I got nothing else.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
So if in her profile she is like Eddie Vedder
might be the worst. I hate pearl Ja. That's a problem.
You'd be okay, well that's a problem for me.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
Is that a problem? Or would you not just walk
around your house playing parlture?

Speaker 3 (14:55):
You just speaking better?

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Right, Eddie? Better than that?

Speaker 3 (14:59):
I think he pictures tell me that. Maybe.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Listen, I'm a pretty digital person. Yeah, if you if
you have crappy pictures, it's always wild together.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
I understand what we look like in early MySpace, but
in the year of Our Lord twenty twenty five, we
have the technology look like a potato.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
What about filters? Is that about an I assume everyone
uses filters at this point, and so I assume that
everyone's going to be a little more wrinkly when you
meet him in real life.

I mean, yeah, so one of the big things for
me is nerd hate Okay. There they'll be.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
Oh Williams, if you're feeling okay.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
So she a beautiful marketing stunt. She released new music
and put it up on her website and it was
there for twenty four hours and by the time me
and my old phone over here figured out what was happening,
it was too late. If you go to her website
right now, Hailey Williams dot net, it just says thank you.
So we missed out on a great opportunity, seventeen new songs,

(33:44):
and miss Williams, I am about to follow your company,
good Die Young a hair dye company. Yeah, amazing branding name.
I'm following because that is how her fans got the
sixteen digit code to get in to listen to the
seven new.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Tracks, and everybody who got to listen is buzzing' oh,
it just buzzing. She's back with the mustard hair like.
That was part of a video where she played part
of one of the new songs that showed her like
doing her hair with the her like mustard colored hairs.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
Back. You're talking mustard, yes, the color. I thought you
were mentioning she put mustard in her.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
No, sorry, I do my fault. I went around because
I couldn't find any of these songs online. I don't
know if it also good job on her. I just
grub the internet from it and continue to build the anticipation.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
Because miss Haley, don't I just like this this tweet
from Rose Color.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
At Rose Color, she says, Hailey Williams writing a love
song about antidepressants, turning it into one of the best
songs I've ever heard, randomly dropping a CD into a
radio station and then staying completely silent on social Media's
very Hailey Williams of her. Yes, I like her talking
about a love song about antidepressants is an interesting concept.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
I think she's an email singer. Yeah, that's par for
the course. Yeah, yeah, we like that. We like to
destigmatize actually getting help rebrains like I don't know, complaining
about it and making everyone else's problem around you reach.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
I just I want to release date. I want to
release release. I want to know when we're all going
to get But she took it down. Well, we were
like a full release. This was like aation break for
that one. Buddy back to it.

There are ways to scrub it. Like that music got
out and we can't find it now.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Good on her.

like one microphone that it doesn't have a camera on it,
and Clinger walks over and he's just using that one
and we're like for like ten camera. So when I
was making the video, I had to make Ai clinger.

it was good? It just was very off guard. Just
not everything can be a home run. I'm sorry, I'm
not on guard speaking gotcha.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Speaking of home runs. Imagine you're in the major leagues,
you hit your first home run and you're traded next day.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
Okay, this is an exclusive on the Morning Lash bit
information you're only gonna hear on Rock ninety five to five.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
But bon Jovi is actually not a cowboy what is he?
He's a rock star. They're like totally different jobs.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
That's crazy. It's also not wanted.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
A lot of stolen valor going on. I got a
cool list here. It's five fast food items that professional
chefs love.

Speaker 9 (43:07):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (43:07):
I'm a food guy. I like food.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
I'm interested in eating good food. I'm interested in what
the best fast food is. And I have a lot
of respect for people who spend their whole lives cooking,
making food, growing coming up in restaurants make it just
like the bear to show the bear. Yeah, so I'm
always interested what they say. The best things are number
five on the list in and Out cheeseburgers. The ingredients
are fresh, and they say it's a solid burger overall.

Speaker 3 (43:30):
Okay. They also live in California where they have access
to in and out, which is fine because they can
experience it. I had in and out so drunk, I
don't remember what it tastes like.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
I'm sick of her from in and out. It's not
that good. Number four KFC's chicken sandwich. Yeah, they say
the professional chef that listed it to a professional chefs
that listed it said they were working on a fried
chicken concept and tested out every sandwich they could find,
and KFC was their favorite. Yes, I can vie with that. Yes,

(43:59):
number three. I don't even know if there's a real
food McNuggets from McDonald McDonald's chicken McNuggets were back in
the day. Didn't you see the pink thing? Wasn't there
like a or that Maybe that was burger king or something.
But they say even fast food or even food snobs
love chicken McNuggets.

Speaker 3 (44:15):
They are good food and wine.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
Linked to a recent article on how elevated nuggets have
become a thing and a handful of fine dining restaurants
elevated nuggets. You have a little jelly you put on them,
with a little I don't need your elitist nuggets. I'm
Mickey De's.

Speaker 3 (44:31):
So here's the conversation that always happens. Nuggets over strips
or strips over nuggets.

Speaker 2 (44:37):
Oh oh oh, I need more food, so I like
the big strips.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
It depends on what's happening that day. Why am I
getting nuggets or why am I getting strips? I want strips.
If I'm out, I'd say, allla palooza in Childtown. I
don't want to sit there and dip nuggets. But I
want some chicken, and I want some breading with it.
But from sitting down and chilled and have myself a
littlelunchy lunch, you have some nuggs.

Speaker 3 (45:01):
I'm a saucy guy, so get that. The more, the
more sauce I can apply, the better. So it's strips
all day, damn right.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Five fast food items Professional chefs love Number two, The
possible you shoot me with a nerve gun whopper. A
lot of chefs are vegetarians, Higgins, they say that is
the that is the best vegetarian option.

Speaker 1 (45:22):
I am not a chef in any way, jape or form.
I can't cook worth the damn but it is shockingly.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
Good that beyond I lost the frame.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
Okay, one more time.

Speaker 3 (45:32):
The broiling process that they use it burger flame broiled.

Speaker 2 (45:37):
From frame to boy. Even when I drive past the
Burger King, I'm like, like that flame broil.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
I burger king far too often. That Whopper Jr. Is
just the perfect.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
Size numberame broil number one is actually a big deal.
I mean, we talk a lot about food on this show.
We talk about what the best food is. On this show,
we talk about you know, and more than anything, what
do we talk about chicken. Yeah, what's the best chicken?

Speaker 3 (46:01):
Number one on the list. Don't you dare?

Speaker 2 (46:03):
Five fast food items professional chefs.

Speaker 3 (46:06):
This entire radio station upside down. If you say what
I think you're about to say, Popeyes fried chicken. Okay,
I agree with that. Yeah, I agree with that. You've
baited me. These are the thing. These are These are
the big guy pop Popeyes is top tier, chicken, seasoning, flavors, variety.
I just and that chicken sandwich is top tier. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
They say three different chefs had it on their list.
One of them said, quote, I've never considered Popeyes to
be fast food. To me, it's a fried chicken restaurant
that's so good.

Speaker 3 (46:38):
And for anybody who's ever been to Popeyes, it is
not fast food. It is order and sit and wait.
But you're gonna get some fresh.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
Food and then take a nap after.

Speaker 3 (46:46):
Oh my god, that nap is so good.

Speaker 2 (46:49):
I'm just thinking maybe you could have I don't know,
a beer afterwards.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
Sorry, you can hit them if you want to do.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
I would like to do something for the people. Since
Michael is just at my nerves right now. Ninety five
minutes Commercial Free is next and we're talking more Thursday
here on Rock ninety five five.

Speaker 7 (47:19):
Rock ninety five five.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
She gotoes rock stage in the morning, March pitt is on.
My name is Michael Ah Marrors, and.

Speaker 1 (47:26):
I'm Maria Palmer, and I am the writer of this
very annoying jingle.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
It's Thursday. It's wrong ninety five five Thursday. We're not
at it a bar?

Speaker 10 (47:37):
The best way to enjoined Thursday f listing. Yeah, we
gotta tell you one way. Thank god, what you bordered
a drink?

Speaker 1 (47:47):
We're going to be ordering many things to drink at
La La pauluas up.

Speaker 3 (47:51):
So a lot of people have asked about to Margarita. Maria. Yeah,
and this happened a few years.

Speaker 1 (47:59):
Ago because I was like, really, well, no, the first
time you've ever experienced me drinking was that Christmas party.

Speaker 3 (48:05):
We weren't counting drinks that day.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
We were not.

Speaker 3 (48:10):
But as we know, Lollapalooza has a lot of great sponsors,
and one of their sponsors happened to be a canned
Margarita drink. We absolutely enjoyed that. Well, boys, I.

Speaker 1 (48:23):
Feel like I owe an explanation because people keep asking
what's what's too Margerite is Maria. Let me explain, as
you know from hanging out with me every morning, and
thank you for that.

Speaker 2 (48:33):
I love we love our company so much.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
Thanks for being here.

Speaker 1 (48:36):
I don't have a lot of a filter anyway in
my normal day to day life, but there is a
little bit of one. I do care about people, and
I don't want to hurt people's feelings, and I want
them to like.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Me, and I'm wanted whatever.

Speaker 6 (48:50):
And when I am too, margariteas Maria, that filter's gone.
Whatever f's I may give when I am sober no
longer exist, and I'll just I just go.

Speaker 2 (49:01):
So that's what that is.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
But also in my defense, I was in my twenties
and now I'm in my thirties.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
I'm older, I'm wiser.

Speaker 3 (49:07):
Let's just say it was two years I had a little.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
More of a tolerant. It was more than two years ago.
It was like three or four at this point. Damn yeah,
dog huh yeah.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
So stop holding it over my head.

Speaker 3 (49:18):
I'm changed. I'm not holding it over your head. It's
just a moment in time where I can we can
all call to multiple Margarita person because you weren't the
only one. No, like, we have a team that's backstage
and when we're at Lollaplou's and Michael, we're excited to
bring you in and lump you into all of the
shenanigans that happened backstage at Lollapalooza. But everybody had their

(49:40):
specific number. Yeah, for Margarita.

Speaker 2 (49:43):
Time, mine was two. I like that yesterday Marisco's. I
haven't done this before, but I just got to tell you,
don't screw around. You know, I found the drink I
want when I go out tonight for Luke Holmes go
on and KG Elephant heos Lala lemonade. You can get
a single Laura double.

Speaker 3 (50:03):
Baby, a double I'm playing around. Treat yourself.

Speaker 2 (50:09):
They also have stuff like the Bacardi Peanut Coalala.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Oh that's fun if you liking your colalss Yeah.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
There you go. Oh yeah right now.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
So there's lots of cool like different specialty drinks for
the festival, different stuff like that. Everything from Martinez is
the beer, you name it.

Speaker 3 (50:28):
And the new fun part this year is you can
buy a full beers at a time.

Speaker 2 (50:32):
Oh so you don't gonna go wait in line after
you down one? You know what I'm gonna getacull me.

Speaker 3 (50:43):
Never broke my Heart's true though, listeners, you can't see
the disgust on my face right now, but it is discussed.

Speaker 2 (50:51):
Hey, don't forget. You can always leave walkie talkbacks for
us here in the studio.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
Hit the microphone button on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
If you have anything you want to say or sing
or maybe play a song.

Speaker 3 (51:02):
Don't listen to this anything. Don't listen to things that
didn't break your heart.

Speaker 1 (51:05):
Well, tell your children nuts all ve notably, no apostrophe
in that title.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
It is not the bells of Hell. It is multiple
hells and multiple bells.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (51:18):
And don't you dare even insinuate that maybe rock song
titles just aren't grammatically correct.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
I won't have it. S Mornamas been on Rock ninety
five to five.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
It's a wrinkle in my brain.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
You're welcome, Mikerock, and boy do we have something today?

Speaker 2 (51:34):
Boy Boy put this well, we'll get to the breaking
news in a second.

Speaker 7 (51:37):
Hair.

Speaker 2 (51:38):
I want to cover Ozzy's funeral procession yesterday. Yeah, it
all went down. I went back watching videos. We posted
a bunch of stuff over at Rock ninety five to
five on the website. On our Instagram all that stuff
you can see pictures and videos, but pretty cool. A
huge turnout for Ozzie's funeral procession procession in his hometown
in England. Hearset carrying Ozziy's coffin had purple flower arrangements
that spelled out Ozzy in the window. I remember us

(51:58):
trying to explain that yesterday, did you see it? Yeah,
Black Sabbath at the Black Sabbath bench. Sharon exited her
vehicle and made her way to the memorial with the
support of her kids. She actually had to be held
up at one point because she was so emotional. I
you know it maybe can I be honest? It made
me cry a little bit. Oh yeah, like seeing even

(52:19):
just the still shot of her out there and knowing
like there were moments on the Osbourne Show where she
would be like my office, Like you knew that there
was just that love. It's incredible love they had.

Speaker 3 (52:30):
There was there was a photo of just Sharon by herself,
and that got me. But then they switched to the
kids standing around her in support and all of them
have the same face and I was just like I there.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
And then she was sobbing and put the peace sign
up that was tough.

Speaker 2 (52:46):
Too, so a number of artists were out there as well.
Metallica was there, a number of other rock artists attending,
and just kind of a somber day out there in England,
remembering the legend Ozzy Osbom.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
But breaking news, let's get into it. We got breaking
news music, Yeah, breaking news this morning. The Food Fighters
and Nine Inch Nails have swapped drummers and what we
could call a trade. That's right, Josh Freeze going over
to nine inch Nails and our man Ian Reuben heading

(53:26):
on over to the Food Fighters. All right, that's pretty easy,
ye swap them.

Speaker 3 (53:30):
It's like you want to, I'll take him, all right? Cool.

Speaker 2 (53:35):
You know what's weird? I've seen the Food Fighters like
three times. I actually watched their Lalla performance they the
other day just on YouTube.

Speaker 3 (53:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (53:42):
When I saw them with Hell what's his name?

Speaker 3 (53:45):
He passed away. I'm blanking Hawkins.

Speaker 2 (53:47):
Yeah, Taylor Hawkins.

Speaker 3 (53:48):
Great.

Speaker 2 (53:49):
When I saw them with Josh.

Speaker 3 (53:51):
Yeah, that's so great.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
Well, I just didn't seem to have the same vibe.

Speaker 3 (53:55):
So of course, the biggest thing that I remember from
Taylor and Dave on stage, they go back and back. Yeah,
just like what we're doing here, just having fun. Yeah,
whatever it was, if he missed a drum beat or
he missed whatever it was, they were having fun together.
They fed off of each other, and then you just

(54:16):
take that away and it was just Dave by himself essentially.
I'm hoping to switch here.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
The trade, so to speak, will allow the fun to
come back a bit. Maybe Dave can get on the
same page as Ian Rubin and get to rock in
a little bit more. But yeah, breaking news. Food Fighters
now have a drummer. Nine inch nails ready to go.
You probably see Josh Frees playing with the Foo Fighters at.

Speaker 3 (54:36):
The United Center nine inch nails. I'm sorry, I'm all
mixed up. Nine inch nails at the United Center, which
to be cool.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
Indeed, find out everything you need all the rock News
concert calendar and more at Rock nine to five five do.

Speaker 8 (54:58):
So.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
Last year, I drove into town to move here on
the night of Lollapalooza that Blink was playing. As I
drove into town, I got stuck in Laura Whacker. GPS
went off.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
Oh that's terrible. I had to get my car parked.

Speaker 2 (55:13):
I had to find the place we were staying while
the streets were packed with people. A great show to
close out Lollapalooza last year. But Blink's always fun. I'm
surprised that your GPS took you to Laura Whacker. Well,
I think traffic was so bad into town.

Speaker 3 (55:27):
Oh, you were trying to get to your permanent place, right,
no temporary?

Speaker 2 (55:33):
Oh, because I was putting a temporary place for a
month when I first moved here.

Speaker 3 (55:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (55:35):
But dude, it's been like a year, Like it's almost
been a year to the day.

Speaker 3 (55:38):
Your anniversary is coming up. What're two weeks away?

Speaker 1 (55:41):
Way?

Speaker 3 (55:43):
What a fun how you're doing it? It has been
an insane year. Indeed.

Speaker 2 (55:47):
Honestly, I can't tell you how happy I am to
just be here and do this on a great station
with the great people. You know, some some people who
show up on time when you're.

Speaker 3 (55:58):
Thank you, Maria Raised Books. So nice of you to
just jump in in the middle of Michael telling us
this lovely story about him being here for a year
and it's his anniversary, his Lala versary.

Speaker 1 (56:11):
If you will lack neon dream it just down't on
me the bars and there's.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
Never broke my.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
Continue Mickey, it's time for it was a war.

Speaker 3 (56:33):
There is a war actively about to happen in this studio, Yes,
if it is the inevitable comb of a loop. One
more time, flip this place from the front of the inevitable.
Oh yeah that one, Yeah, this one.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
So making an AI data center in Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Speaker 2 (56:59):
There that's all on the border of northern Colorado. So
right on the border of Colorado and Wyoming is Cheyenne.

Speaker 6 (57:05):
Ah, I wish I knew far from Colorado. But this
data center and this AI one, it's got to use
more electricity than every home in the state combined.

Speaker 3 (57:19):
Damn Jesus, be fair. There's not a lot of home.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
I was going to say, that's all the mountains populated
out there.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
This is like a thing though, like these AI data
centers and like they take up so much electricity.

Speaker 3 (57:33):
They gotta do. Yeah, yes, they better be solar powered because.

Speaker 2 (57:37):
Well they're sucking in a lot of information and then
they got to make you know, to dissect it basically.

Speaker 1 (57:43):
Yeah, it says they have ten gigawatts, they're going to
need ten gigawatts, and that is a lot.

Speaker 3 (57:50):
It turns out if you could translate gigawatts into regular
English for us that don't understand electricity, Well, how would you.

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Lots of electricity?

Speaker 1 (57:58):
Thank you, that's good, but as we know, using all
the electricity and also not great for the environment.

Speaker 3 (58:08):
True, that's why I said solar. There's a great option
for a facility that needs that much. But you'd probably
have to have a farm as big as two counties
in Wyoming to get all that electricity.

Speaker 2 (58:18):
Yeah, pretty easy, Yeah, it is. There's a lot of
open land in Wyoming. I mean, if you're picking a state,
that'd be the one to do it.

Speaker 8 (58:25):
Fair.

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Yeah, you know what else takes a lot of power?
Lollapalus I bet, I bet, especially those closing performances in
the war tonight, in the war right in the midst of.

Speaker 6 (58:37):
That's right, robot cantering beer.

Speaker 7 (58:42):
Stopping us wind.

Speaker 3 (58:47):
No, no, no, no, because no, because now that we're here,
we're almost at the end of the show. Why are
we concerned about a beer break in my heart?

Speaker 7 (58:56):
Like?

Speaker 3 (58:58):
Why?

Speaker 2 (58:59):
I just like, no, that's a mass the whole thing. Yeah,
it's never that's not a statement that needs to be said.

Speaker 3 (59:06):
We know that beer doesn't have feelings, much like these
robots in this war, Like, why are what happened that
just made you have an epiphany that, oh beer is
so good, it's never gonna break my house.

Speaker 2 (59:18):
No dub, here comes a cross out, No dub.

Speaker 3 (59:21):
We played. It's not even a good metaphor. It's just
a statement.

Speaker 12 (59:28):
Just cocus gold deer, never problem. But this was news
from the front of the inevitable human robot War.

Speaker 3 (59:46):
You know, ninety five minutes commercial free on Rock ninety
five to five. Can we can we have like a
moment of peace?

Speaker 1 (59:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (59:59):
Yeah, Maria, I want to do a little text. I
just feel like we need to hear from the people
and just yeah, be peaceful. I got a little riled
up last time, and I just I just want to hear.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
From the people except apology.

Speaker 3 (01:00:09):
I did not apologize. I did not notice that I.

Speaker 2 (01:00:14):
Get your checks in anytime. Eight four five fifty. That's
eight four four five. Hair definitely squirreled its pants.

Speaker 3 (01:00:24):
That's up, yep.

Speaker 2 (01:00:27):
From the seven to eight. Here's my deal breakers. We're
talking about what your dating deal breakers are. Here's my
deal breakers. Lions, Tigers and pistons. Mariis is really the
beating boy today? Oh my, you know what?

Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
Goodbye.

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Let's hear from the six three oh on our way
to lollapalooza right now. Very excited to see Cage the
Elephant tonight.

Speaker 3 (01:00:52):
And then after that, sorry chose violence today, We'll be.

Speaker 6 (01:01:05):
Well.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
Let me give you one more here, a dirty joke
for Michael from the eight five to seven. How did
the burger king get the dairy queen pregnant? Oh no,
he forgot to wrap his whopper? Walk off and let's
be real.

Speaker 3 (01:01:19):
That's good. Let's do some walkie talkbacks because I'm not
not very happy with these text messages at all. So okay,
here we go.

Speaker 8 (01:01:29):
Hey, Michael Marrison, Maria, it's your boyfriend Maria Matt from Australia.
But I just want to reach out to Marius. I
feel you sympathy, mate. That's not fair of the whole
Luke Combs thing and just the triggering cop.

Speaker 3 (01:01:45):
All the way from Astralda. I will burn that entire
island down.

Speaker 2 (01:01:53):
I love having an inside joke that's international. I love
having two Australian boyfriends.

Speaker 1 (01:01:58):
Matt.

Speaker 2 (01:01:58):
Did that put you as number one Australian boyfriend?

Speaker 3 (01:02:01):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (01:02:02):
Sebastian, do you have a return?

Speaker 3 (01:02:04):
I was hoping, hoping, yeah, that we could get through
this without having a moment. So I'm going to try
another one. Take your finger off the spacebar, take your
finger out the spacebar. I got this.

Speaker 9 (01:02:18):
You know, guys, I'm really concerned about the way that
you're teasing Mariss because it seems like you're gonna get
his blood pressure up. And I don't want anything to
happen to him. So if you could just let him relax,
maybe drink a.

Speaker 3 (01:02:39):
I love you. I've said several times on this show
that I love you, and I meant it, and I
meant I'm crashing right now, thank you. I meant it
so much from the deaths of my heart. It's a
very crashing right now. Thank you. All right? And this

(01:03:04):
is how you treat me. The text messages, the talkbacks,
all the technology. You have to sense a pleasant message,
and I have to hear the worst metaphor in country
music all morning long. That's the point. Why are we
sympathizing with a cold beer? Like drink out of a

(01:03:26):
care US canned beer is better anyway, Okay, Lucas poems
no long necks better. I bet you would like a
long neck. I sure would, But I've crashed too far here.
Just keep going because it's ninety five minutes commercial for you,

(01:03:48):
hey man, when it rains, of course.

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
Like a hurricane.

Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
See I take issue there because Dragula was the car
that Hermann Munster drove of the monsters, and he would
never burn any witches and slam them in the back
of his car, gonna ask what are those witches doing?
He's down with the witches. We have a rock star
and arment, not just a rock star.

Speaker 3 (01:04:24):
Drag that I work with. Walt.

Speaker 2 (01:04:26):
Yes, like there's a real rock star that works on
our radio station, keyboardist of Stabbing Westward.

Speaker 3 (01:04:31):
Mid Days on Rock ninety five to five. Walt like
us here, thanks for joining us. Of course we.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Have corrections, Yeah, yeah, yeah, go on. So Michael, I
can't tell you how many times the ship has pointed
at me after the corrections.

Speaker 3 (01:04:52):
Damn it all.

Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
The drummery question is Elon Rubin. Oh what was I saying?

Speaker 13 (01:05:03):
Let's see the yeah, the L. When it's a lower
case L, it looks like an eye. So it's just
say e no, it's Elan and he is now the
drummer for the Foo Fighters. Correct and Josh Josh Freeze
returns back to nine inch nail. Yes, so long story.
I'll try to make it short. When I was working

(01:05:25):
for Q Prime Management, we had the band Lost Profits,
and Elon was recruited to be the drummer because he
was this badass kid in southern California that they found
he was seventeen years old. I remember they had to
have deals with the parents to make him come out
with the band. I was with Elon and the band

(01:05:46):
in Munich when he turned eighteen and legal to drink.

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
So I've known Elan for a really long time.

Speaker 13 (01:05:52):
And I was at Redding Festival when Nine Inch Nails
was playing and Lost Prophets were playing, and they would
come out, Lost Profits come out and they play this
this song with this drum beat and it was just
like he whales and I just you could just see
Trent's eyes light up and like I want that. Yeah,
And ever since then, he's been a nail. So like uh,

(01:06:13):
and he was great in the band. It's kind of
surprising guy. I can only figure that maybe he's bored
and wants to do something different. But for Josh Freeze,
it's a return and that man is a beast. Nobody
wins or loses here because they're both incredible drummers. Yeah,
and so I think that this is gonna be a
wash and it's just gonna be fun to watch them
each and their new gigs.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
I have no idea who we're going to get when
nine inch Nails comes next month.

Speaker 3 (01:06:37):
I don't know. Oh yeah, interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
Why do you think that Foos would want Elan over
Josh if they did?

Speaker 13 (01:06:45):
That is a really good question. I that is, that's
a tough one. I thought Josh was a perfect fit.

Speaker 3 (01:06:50):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 13 (01:06:50):
I don't know. I actually I'm actually surprised. Yeah, but
find out. Yeah, I mean they're again, they're both high
caliber drummers. You're not gonna go wrong either way. But
there has to be a personality.

Speaker 2 (01:07:02):
I was gonna say, maybe we were bantery.

Speaker 13 (01:07:04):
Is it really isn't though, I don't at least he
hasn't been in nails or whatnot. He's an incredible musician.
He would come out and play the piano on March
of the Pigs. Yeah, and he's plays I mean like
he plays all he plays. He has another band called
the New Regime where he's the singer and the guitar player.
The guy is he also plays in Angels in Airwaves.

(01:07:25):
I mean, the guy is like an incredible musician, a
perfect circle. Uh no, no, who am I thinking of
playing in the PCT?

Speaker 3 (01:07:35):
Josh Freese? Probably we're talking about going to say you
just went for an auto correct while Walt was in studio.

Speaker 2 (01:07:42):
I'm just wondering how i I'm gonna Well, this is exciting.

Speaker 1 (01:07:50):
I can't wait to hear like the difference and see
what's what's gonna happen on stage with them?

Speaker 3 (01:07:54):
And yeah, it's like a Lamborghini and a Ferrari A
good exam example. I mean, can you be proud that
we have a rock star that we can consult in
their stuff? It's incredible correct, and then he immediately goes,
I know them and I have stories and let me
share this very quickly. Well, Walt, thank you for joining us.

(01:08:21):
You're always welcome in the mosh pit, but make sure
you keep it right here. Walt's going to keep things
moving as we are ninety five minutes commercial free on
this day.

Speaker 2 (01:08:31):
I'll see Lala tonight, can't the Elephant and

Speaker 3 (01:08:39):
