"So Bill Russell sucks that basketball is his where we are in this story, which I did not expect to be discussing, but when does it get better? When does it become clear that wait a minute? Hope is not lost with this kid. Yeah, so the foundation was always there. Like anyone who grows to be 6 foot ten or whatever, you're athletes so you're gonna figure it out eventually. And after his high school career, he started to get a little better. Again, he showed up USF kind of raw and uncoordinated, but they worked with him because he was just this amazing athlete. In fact, he broke the school record for the high jump record that still stands today. And so they kind of molded them, worked with them. Basically just morphing him into shape. And it was an assistant coach Ross the who's credited with helping him to sharpen up his defense in a way that was kind of controversial at the time. Wait, what is controversial to me? What kind of methodologies techniques are we describing here? Yeah, so basically the rule of the day at that time was you don't leave your feet on defense. You can get pumped fakes. You can get fatigue from jumping up and down so much. Sure. And if you block a shot, JaVale McGee, it might just go out of bounds and the team gets them all back anyway. No, this is an old school, right? Like, do not leave your feet on defense. It's something that I imagine. Probably felt a little limiting to the guy who was the highest jumper in school history. Yeah, and it's a philosophy that his head coach at the time, Phil whooper believed in strongly as well. Whooper clashed with Russell all the time. Over Russell's defensive style. In some ways, wolpert was especially in those early years, Russell was leaping to block shots and wilbert was still enough of a traditionalist where he was coaching him not to do that. They did not agree on this philosophy, but I think he eventually learned that, you know, some rules are made to be broken. And in this case, you have a high jump champion who was nearly 7 feet tall and, you know, let him do his thing. Yeah, it turns out, Bill Russell, better than JaVale McGee. Yeah, that's absolutely right. It turns out that bill didn't know what he was talking about. He averaged 19 points in 19 rebounds in his sophomore year. The team finished a second in their conference and a whim 14 game. But it's not just like natural ability. He somehow became a better player. He kind of went on a self work study. He just studied office of players moves, the be a better position to guard it. He used his long arms and leaving abilities to kind of impact offenses and defenses because he can start the fast break if he's blocking shots and stuff like that. So all in all, he was more self taught than anything else and he turned out to be right. All right, Martinez, after the break, Bill Russell sparks those Dons to a historic winning streak. So Mackenzie now we're at the point of the story where Bill Russell is officially good at basketball. And it's 1954 and he's a junior in college and the homeless Dons are feeling a little more confident, right? They've just come off this season before where they were second in the conference, and now what happens? So now to start things off, whooper who was born in Los Angeles, which is a little more racially diverse than the rest of the rest of the country. He does the unthinkable when he starts not only Bill Russell, but also Casey Jones, who would be his teammate with the Boston Celtics, a few years later, and then also how Perry who came in and saying freshman classes Bill Russell. And I mean, it was unheard of to even have one black player at the time. And I was on the roster, not as a starter, and they had three black starters. And it turns out that was a pretty smart move, right? So in his first game against Loyola marymount, he scored a school record 39 points. Mind you going into that season, he wasn't even considered one of the best players in the country, and he almost scored 40 right out the gate. And in the second game of the season, USF actually loses to UCLA and John Wooden, but there is a glass half full here in that this will be the last time that the Dons would lose over the next two years. Right. This is the part where the streak officially begins. Because what happens from here is yeah, it's absurd. Yeah, so they first just pull off tin straight wins, including a rematch with UCLA, where they do read the bruins this time, but it's the defense and Bill Russell. That's driving this. We had the full court press on. And we overplayed everything because if they got by us, they had to deal with Russell. We would get beat and then he would come and block a shot. I don't know how they didn't keep records in on block shots, but he must have had a ton every game. They're more vertical because this man can jump out of the gym. There's more fast brakes, which is kind of brand new to basketball at this time. When he blocked a shot, he blocked it to one of us. Instead of knocking it out of bounds and we get out on the fast break, because he'd never seen that type of play before. Even to us as a teammate, it was fun to watch. Their whole opponents to just 52 points a game like they're just a monster at this point to which they end the season on a 21 game win streak. Wait, so this team, which is a revelation with Bill Russell pushing the break and stopping everybody who dares to attack him at a time when people are again afraid to jump. Like by basketball coaching standards, like they don't really jump in this game yet. So when they get into the tournament, when they get to March Madness, this is the first NCAA tournament for Bill Russell and the Dons in 55. What's that Montage like? It goes pretty well for them. He scores 29 points in the first game. He's a little limited in the second game because he's sick and only scores 13 points, but he follows that up with 29 points in 24 points. And then in championship game against LaSalle, who are the defending champions, he scores 23 points and grabbed 25 rebounds. And who knows how many blocks because they just weren't counted at the time. That's right. Also, we should know that one of the things that Bill Russell did better than anybody else, not actually kept as a statistic at this time in terms of how ahead of the game ahead of the curve he was in so many different ways. Yeah, according to the NCAA, Bill Russell never recorded a block in his entire life. I'd be so mad. And so in the season on the 25 game winning streak, they obviously are the national champions and Russell just through this one season almost changes

"My name is Jared Weiss, and I cover the Celtics for the athletic. The most impressive thing about Bill Russell's career on the court, honestly, for me, was the way he innovated. He was almost like Jimi Hendrix at a similar time in the history of his profession in that he came in at kind of right at the modernization of the sport and he was the one that I think truly ushered in that revolution. What will Chamberlain did on the offensive end of the way he dunked the ball, the way that he leaped over everybody, Russell did that on the other side of the floor, and what made Russell so fascinating was that he blocked shots and his coach in college literally told him you're not supposed to leave your feet to block a shot. Like why are you jumping? And Russell was the first person that just went, I don't understand why I wouldn't leave my feet because he was a track and field athlete. He was one of the best high jumpers in the country. I was ranked number two at number three best high jumper in track and field. And the whole world at the time. I ran hurdles and a low jumped, and my vertical was I could get my eyes above the rim. You used to say that he could jump so high. He could kick the net and he could touch the top of the backboard, which watching some of the film and film probably was not an exaggeration. I mean, the guy had an absolutely insane vertical leap. So I was an athlete to learn how to play basketball. And so my skills were unconventional because I was doing things that no one had seen before. And I think made him so special was that when he had this power, this innovative power, he didn't use it to spike the ball out of bounds. Like we see so many people do. And so for him, blocking shots was a pass. There was Russell blocking the shot by west. Russell has a back again. He was looking to tip the ball to a teammate to start a fast break and create the really innovate this uptempo era of basketball. Barnett goes in and Russell flexes. This is a three on two break. Casey Jones goes in and makes it. So as much of an impact as he had on the defensive end of just changing the mindset in the technique and the understanding of how you're supposed to stop and shot in the sport, he also revolutionized the high pace offensive game that really took over the early periods of the sport and the NBA has literally been changing the rules to try to bring that back because we can see that Russell was someone who created an aesthetically ideal version of basketball. Has made three big plays the last three minutes of the game. I grew up in Boston and I was raised by a father who loved the Celtics of Celtics for his great passion. And Bill Russell was my role model as a kid. My father spent more time explaining his legacy on and off the floor. His principles as a man, the way he innovated the game, the way that he thought the game through a lens of teamwork and making the right decision to better the whole. Those are the things that I learned as a child that kind of helped shape who I became as a person as I grew up. And so for me, I've always looked at Bill Russell as kind of like the central thread of the Boston ideology and the Boston identity because Boston for so long had this blue collar mentality, the sense of community, even though that maybe was a little bit misleading because of all the issues Boston has had with race

"In Boston. It's the NBA Finals that Bill Russell number 6 brilliantly spearheading the Celtics before a capacity crown of 14,000. From 1957 to 69, the Celtics won 11 titles, including 8 straight. There were great players like bob cousy, Tom heinsohn, Sam and Casey Jones, and so many others, but none like Russell. He was the bridge to all 11 championships, a competitor so fierce. He'd often throw up before games. Success, though, couldn't hide a difficult relationship with the city where he played. Russell didn't trust some of Boston's white fans who cheer the winning, but then complain the team had too many black players. In a Boston Globe documentary, former teammate Tom heinsohn remembered how the Boston suburb of reading, where Russell lived, held a dinner to honor him. He was so taken aback that he broke down and started to cry and he said that he wished he could live in reading for the rest of his life. But not long after people broke into Russell's house, destroyed trophies and defecated in his bed. His relationship to those outside the Celtics locker room became chilly. He got a reputation for being surly. He refused to sign autographs. On the other hand, Russell loved the Celtics and the progressive white people who ran the franchise. During the dynasty years, the Celtics became the first NBA team to have an all black starting lineup. And in 1966, more history, as heard in this NBA TV documentary. Here he is, the new coach of the solids, the best of you. When legendary head coach red auerbach retired, he named Russell to take his place, the first black head coach in the NBA. It was historic, but Bill Russell said he didn't care. He simply believed he was the best man for the job, although a reporter questioned that at a press conference after the announcement. The first

"Go to hell. So a couple more things I want to talk about with you before I let you go. And one league wide more team the other more team specific. So this was a couple weeks ago, I think. The NBA released its top 15 all time coaches in no particular order just a group. I'm sure you saw this. And the Celtics were well represented. Obviously, right hour back, you had Casey Jones, you had Doc Rivers was on the list as well. And I looked at this list. And I just thought it wasn't the official net list. Go pitch, the bill pitch on the list as well. But, you know, and deservedly so. But I looked at it and again, people love Doc. He's a great guy he's a media darling. He's, you know, he's just like people. One championship. And presided presided over multiple of the worst collapses in NBA playoff history. That we never seen, but people love Doc Rivers. You think of those personalities that you talk about? How many of those personalities are you going man? I could go out and drink a beer with that guy. Sure. Rivers is one of those guys that, you know, you feel like you could do you feel comfortable with all of that I told you, you know, Adam, go up there and talk to grip, Greg Popovich, real quick. It's probably be a short conversation on his exactly. But Doc Rivers, Doc Rivers you look at the number of games he's won to win the championship that players he's the house he's affected this league with that great team here with the sellers and think about it. Kevin Garnett doesn't get hurt that next year. Celtics went another championship and the franchise is again completely turned upside down when scheduled and they got hurt. Sure, but that's, I mean, and maybe if Kendrick Perkins doesn't get traded for Jeff Green, I'd like to. But these are what ifs. This is a reality. The reality of this list to me and seeing Doc get on it. It just, it doesn't fit. I think Doc is a woefully overrated coach. I think he's a good to very good coach. I don't think he's a great coach. I don't think he's an all time coach, a top 15 all time head coach. Um. That is a great question. Do I believe he's a top 15 all time great coach? I mean, that's what the NBA has told us. He's on the list. I would say no. I think he is really good, I think that he's a great motivator. He's really good at X's and O's. But he players coach. I think so with all those things you're saying. I think he's gotten, he's gotten another side. We were always remember Doc Rivers not only as the coach of this and then planning and sleep, but we remember him for a line that he gave when he talked about black people..

"The other thing to mention from the old enemies new which connects right to how this issue starts is april met casey jones. Casey jones brought april to the turtles because she makes some kind of comedy realizes that she knew the turtles or something. I think cameras showing this issue is in on. No it's right. It's right before the shows that she's talking to them and they say they're kind of recapping inner their origin story with her. Yeah the usual Yes she just happened to meet them in a totally different way than casey did. I wanna because she meets casey in the old enemies new are where they talk and he's trying to teach or maybe the i can't remember but she's involved or like key takes you to go see the turtles for some reason.

I mean when they start ramping up with the whole army that he wants to build his army the army he wants to build and the rest of his team and how he interacts with his team that he actually cares about the team. Realty he legitimately cares about other mutants. Just not to shuttles. Currently i mean and he's he's just ruthless man as the way that he was gonna introduced to the world.

I think we're not torturing meriva park or something 'cause they're going to dissect them they're trying to grab a sample of that cycle trophy drug or psychotropic drug. That baxter wants to give the crane. They use something with that when it comes to building army. And there's your your check your normal scientists check again chedda so gotta love that name.

When i know who he is and then you i want to say that. He does something in like he calls somebody else. That isn't bacteria that kind of gives you the illusion. He's working for someone else to why i don't think it's not. This issue is hollow. I can't remember. I just remember. I remember seeing something like that about this issue. But he does end up speaking to somebody from the foot clan because he's reveals to you that he's kind of being like some type of double agent norway different part of the foot. Yeah not official. He's not any official member of the foot. But he's he's working at stock. Jen and and against stockman and crank for his his own reasons which will be revealed. Later way later.

"Know, when you're starting out just a little and just letting it go giving that time, like Brandon said just, you know, give it 30 minutes an hour, you're going to feel it quickly. I've noticed that whenever consuming flower is definitely very, very quick after exhaling, you will start to feel it off, unless you have a extremely high tolerance, which, you know, sorry for you. And you can do things like, tolerance breaks to be able to get that back up. But, you know, dead. Whatever. You know, it depends on what you are, you a habitual user? Are you once awhile, user? Are you only use it at night time or you only one these in the morning? Like yeah there's so many different ways to be able to consume cannabis and win but so we've talked about that with flowered though. I personally have never tried it in a vape pen, have you? I haven't Casey Jones. I've only had in flower. Yeah. I've never noticed it like, this is a crazy Jones pan. Yeah, it's not one, that's been really popular in a lot of the places that I've seen I've had it when we got Willie, Nelson's reserve and then I got another time in Colorado somewhere. Yeah. This this strain is actually been great for creativity. You would love like, your mornings obvious work on a lot of marketing ideas and, you know, for conversation and creativity. This is it's fantastic strain. Yeah, I agree. I remember, definitely one of my go to, you know, not to adapt to prop up. I'm pretty sure there's going to be a grower or sometime. Spencer going. Yeah, Willie Nelson's reserves good but this one's better, you know, honestly it really comes down to taste and it show us what you got, right? It just varies from person to person, you know, and, and off please know that when you're going into dispensaries when you're talking to your bed tender and really asking these questions over there, that's the reason why we do we do is because we want to be able to give you a little bit more broader scope of now on some talking points over there, and it's to feel more conversational. When you go to talk to you about tender, and you're going to develop a relationship with your butt tender that is going to be not necessarily just a Commerce type feel. It's definitely one of being able to figure out what works for you and your but dinner is going to learn more about you based upon the questions that you asked. And that will help guide you towards new things that come out. Yeah. Products know I love going to new dispensary and talking with them because even with my small experience and the Cannabis world has brown eyes Has experienced that can be. I'm always asking dispensaries and the blood tenders new products, what they like, how it affects them. Because there's always more coming up as being the nod. Being new to the Cannabis world. That's necessarily knew about 2 and 1/2 3 years into the Cannabis world. And understanding as much as I can about, cannabis is brought not only my views on it, but it's also been able to help as far as when people ask me questions, they put a lot of people have a hard time asking questions about cannabis, then they're like, this is what make me high off. Yeah, a lot of people are afraid to talk about it openly. Yes still. Yeah, no matter where you are. Regardless, if it's medicinal, if it's rack, if it's wreck and medicinal, there's so many different people out there that still have a stigma attached to it in the main thing is they don't want to lose control and they're looking for an alternative source for something. So I'd agree. Casey Jones. Good headspace wage. Doing really good about yourself, a great pick-me-up. For those who suffered a lot of anxiety. A lot of the, a lot of depressive, feelings. Of course, I'm not a doctor by any means. I'm, I'm not telling you, the wage going to feel better on, but for me, personally, I have experienced that. Yeah, it's a great strain. I agree. Cool. So, thanks so much again, guys, we are super grateful to be able to have you on the show off and look forward to next week, we're going to be honest more stuff, right? Yeah, look forward to talking to you guys next week..

"All right, everybody. Welcome back. We are here today to be able to talk to you about a wonderful little train. And when I say this name, you're going to even think of two different one. His locker to, he hung out with the Ninja Turtles. And that's right, we're talking about Casey Jones today. Wonderful strain over there. Brandon, what kind of strain are we talking about today. Did you mean Davy Jones? Davy Jones? Casey Jones a wonderful strain. What type of strain is it? This is going to be a sativa dominant. Hybrid. Jones is a fantastic wake and bake, strain. One of the top ones out there. It's mixed with train wreck and tie an East Coast. Sour Diesel ink also popular for the Ninja Turtles and the original Casey Jones, back in the nineteen hundreds who died saving a ton of civilians on his tray. Oh that's right. That's right. Yeah. So if you're into trains or hockey masks, maybe check it out or turtles. Yeah. Yeah. No. I mean and and I've had personal Spears. Chase Jones actually going to give a shout out to Willie, Nelson's Reserve that's the one that we remember that one. It was pretty good. You know you'll go through different cannabis over there and for those who are getting indoctrinated in the Cannabis world, they're all going to smell the same. They're all going to smell like skunk e, hayat, smelly things that you've grown up or if it's anything, like I smell pot, but it's definitely not. You're getting some really soft tones with this one very earthy smell, but a wonderful way to be able to consume straight flower. If you're doing it that way, either through a pipe bomb or whatever may you may be using, but it's wonderful in that sense. It's it's so rough. I remember that one fares finally over there, there was an industry and we got, they're going to that one another episode. But you know with sativa over there and as you can tell, there's a theme at that one, I'm a huge fan, Brandon likes them, but prefers is Indica so, you know, a little bit of sugar. Spice. Right? I'm more of the spice Brand's. Very sugary for a little sweet. So separated my coffee. No. But you know so it can take a strategic. A question that's in my head is somebody is going into sativa hybrid sativa dominant hybrid, what are they looking for? Now when I mean let's talk about more of Baptists and all before the recreational. Yeah of course some Casey Jones is it's actually really Pleasant sediba so it's uplifting. A lot of people use it for anxiety and depression and stress. So it has a very chatty after affected conversation. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Sometimes a certain strains such as in a very strong Indica, not a whole lot of conversations going at know. You become one with the couch. Yeah. Or just staring at that one. This is a great time to like watch movies and it doesn't have to be dead. Like deep Clockwork Orange you know, Pink Floyd The Wall type movies and like you could literally watch anything. You could watch one of the worst films of all time. Battlefield are actually quite enjoy it. I would say, I don't need a couple sativa, I don't know. Like I definitely is like what you stated, it's more of a conversational, you know, would be great at a get-together bought a party over there. Would you say that an edible would be preferred or would be smoking flower or vape? That depends on you. If you are new, I always put a recommend flower or if they suck Vapes are usually higher concentrate. So my go-to, if your new is always going to be flower, but a lot of people don't particularly like pagemill. So if you're going to do that, there's teachers or our pens, The Vaping is easier. You just get a slightly higher concentrate. So dosing always start low and slow down. Well, you talked about that, too. I mean, some of the ways that I was introduced to cannabis was like a bubbler instead of a pipe and the bubbler actually helps a lot with that one. You talked about before another episode that we thought we were like an ice Butler. Yeah, they have ice catchers at the top of the bomb. Actually, most of the big water pipes, they'll have some of them will have an ice catcher, which is just a little spot that sticks out and you can stick to 3 for ice cubes Up, Up Your Bum stem. And so as you're pulling, it'll cool it down a lot. And if you are new to cannabis, that is a very easy way to be introduced, it has really soft. And it mean, you know, you are inhaling. I mean, let's not beat around. The bush is a carcinogenic smoke, all smoke is carcinogenic and it's one white, but it doesn't have like, when you have commercialized tobacco, right? That is going to be, they've got additives to that one and birth. To get into. Like these are all the chemicals, that cuz it's a lot of it as in the plant from the growing. That's where a lot of these chemicals come from is pasta size, things like that. And that's one of the great things about cannabis is dead. That is typically frowned upon within the industry, to be able to use any type of, you know. Oh, yeah. Mainstream like, I gotta keep these bugs off. That's where a lot of these are grown hydroponically off inside, grow houses over there, there are outside ones but they use our own special blend of herbs and spices on the line there. But I mean it's kind of go off but you know it is. It's it, you know, when you talk about that one and you always go to that and I always wondered why you're like, hey, you know, flowers probably the best way into it. But, you know, take take me through. Why is flour by far? The easiest way to be able to be introduced to the Cannabis world. Yeah, the feeling that you get doesn't last long. Along with flour as it will from an edible, a tincture, even a vape, see what it doesn't hit the same highs because it's flour. It doesn't have the same concentrated dose. You're not going to get quite the same highs and it comes down faster. So if your new always low and slow, take a low-dose, see how it hits. Wait, 30 minutes waiting on a few smoking. You know, and see how that affects you because you don't want to have an experience that your very first experience is miserable and not because of that you stay away from touching it at all. Yeah, I would agree. You know, I told you about years and years and years ago. I mean this is over twenty years or twenty years ago man. Yeah about that. So a twenty years ago had an experience with cannabis and he got to the point where I was so nauseous I was throwing out. Like I didn't think that was possible but it definitely is. And that's why, you know, the heart into it, Brandon just said, you know it's better to go slow and low. Somebody that one if you're you're smoking it over there, taking a small break without inhaling, ready, double puff, fill them out and filling your lungs. When you're you're letting it out, you don't want to see this massive like Dragon cloud coming out, right? You might not well, you definitely, but I mean, and I'm at that point where I can do that but, you.

"Welcome to the watching daddy officially unofficial podcast for the walking dead on amc. I'm jim i'm aron anterior. Talking about season ten not well no no. I don't want to say see tin. I want to say we're talking about the first of the bonus episodes that are happening because of the pandemic they don't want me to call it. Season ten amazon does though when i watch it on amazon. It's season ten episode. Seventeen sweet home yes. Most of the places are covering this as if it is still part of season ten Because it's certainly not season eleven. No definitely not but yeah. This transitional season from the whisperers are to what i presume is going to be. The reapers is going. To be the new post apocalyptic threat. Apparently yeah when all the threats in the alexandria area have been eliminated. What do you do you bring you drag some threats out from afar you do you do gotta has got to squeeze this group of survivors from both ends of the tube. Yeah so you just can't dispense any of it What did you think of the first I s bonus episode of the walking dead. I mostly liked it i. I don't know i'm settling into whatever the hell these bonus episodes are going to be an and just like being back with maggie was a little shoring. I liked it but at the same time. I haven't quite found my feet on these things. And i don't know if i will if they're going to jump around to different characters in micro stories here but we'll see yeah. I had tempered expectations. When i heard your bonus episodes that they were doing undercover restrictions. I've like oh well we're probably not going to get any new plot. This is gonna be digression back stories and things of that nature And i guess. I was a little impressed because this does feel like a next season plot like in fact i started thinking. I wonder if the production hadn't shut down and they had to do more filming. I think that maggie was just shoved into the last episode very kind of haphazard way and now they're actually bringing her in dealing with the questions that we have like. What the fuck happened. The georgie into twins and the project for the new future and all that we get all these questions like Some things i thought they drag onto ridiculousness like what's to deal with casey jones. Here does he have a face. Is he a mutant was e- horribly disfigured. What what the fuck is going on at them. They're like starting to answer that question Although again a too fine a point on it he's a ridiculous completely but so was shot when we first met her. So i mean miss shown i guess a little bit. Especially when she's in her full with zombie entourage and pancho kind of thing but underneath that she's just a regular ass woman this guy i'm gratified to sees us a regular ass dude so like he's got some kind of emotional trauma or something or maybe he's just He's wearing it like the dread pirate roberts. He just thinks the massive terribly comfortable and everyone will be wearing them in the future. He's ahead of the pandemic. Or i don't know there was an interesting be seen there with Him and kelly but will get there. He's in ninety five underneath all that. So he's he safe is not taking any chances sure and and and but i will say that the first twenty minutes their first fifteen minutes this episode the ipad third. I'm like oh god. This is just old walking dead when they didn't have a budget and they'd run out and they're just walking in the woods man. They're gonna walk in the woods. And there's going to be thrilling stealth zombies stuff and like all this. Casey jones guys a real freak and There's a lot of like they're not. They're just going to pretend like we don't know shit that we know. And but then they don't feel like the episode really started getting going. They're still just kinda run around the middle of the woods but they they dressed up a little bit of a set and gave us a little bit of terrain and alexandria with a little more going on at the end. Yup yup So like i think that feels to me like they shot. Probably in episodes worth of of the the big crew together socially distance in the outside walls of i got all this stuff that they got a nucleus for and then they're gonna revolve like two or three people around the story as because that's the that's the only thing that kind of makes sense from what i got out But but i will say that like people talked up these episodes so i was expecting a little bit more than what i got out of this as expecting a little bit. More kind of like backstory and character development And not as much as walking through the woods of georgia. So i but then again like i don't think that people really praising this episode it was some of the later ones some the middle episode so i guess i was welcomed ios wellness by this episode. I think there is an episode. That people like that's the last one that i'm that's what i'm really excited to see. Same here yeah. This one was pretty good. I might complaints are really complaints. complaints more. Like boy show is ridiculous times. And this is an example of that which happens near the end of this episode Talk about that when you get there. But yeah we're all not bad for for an episode created under duress. Got up before we get to the episode proper. I wanna talk about some like true show type of things When we were messing around with the the stereo app During our ketchup of season. We're not quite caught up but we are have arrived at the year. Twenty twenty one of our lord we this content is the freshest it hasn't even past expiration date and we are six weeks away from the walking dead coming back and returning with all new season. Eleven very excited about that but we were we. Were playing around this this Stereo app to kind of do instant feedback for some of these You heard if you heard her podcast and unfortunately we were unable to make a deal with the stereo people to continue doing that for the new season. So we are reverting back to to Right now just the the walk watching dead at bald move dot com for feedback. We have a new discord which gives us some capabilities if we started wanting to do like instant takes if we started doing live stuff on twitter stuff like i don't want to commit to anything because we haven't quite figured that out so we're we're still debating like exactly what kind of coverage we wanna give we. We think we're pretty sure we're going to do a full episode and feedback episode the kind of split the load a little bit but We'll see because we also got to figure out what to do. Sifi sunday if we're going to start doing instant takes or alive watch is zombie science fiction like there's some things to discuss about So we'll see but we are excited to to do season eleven. It seems like it's all but confirmed we're going to get eight episodes. They're gonna last from august to october And then they're going to go away. Probably come back early next year out outta guests like a february through spring run and then back to the august to october to kind of wrap things up and that that feels right wrapping up the walking dead at or near halloween of two thousand twenty two feels pretty fucking good. I liked it. I like walking dead in that that area the.

"Dude. Insane Burn. Respect, Kyrie. You're not really in fact, not at all. I don't know if he had that locked and loaded for a while. I don't know if that was a sport of the moment thing, but either way, it was a moron thing. Leave this that did not come off nearly as cool as it sounded in your head. And in your head. You're probably thinking, man. This is gonna be so bad ass when in reality was just lame, Nothing cool or bad ass about that at all. Like I said, that's just some high school belief. High school believe, but somehow it was even the dumbest and most juvenile thing that happened because some idiot in the stance, threw a water bottle at him and nearly hit him as he was walking to the tunnel. That loser was arrested and charged with assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon as he should be. And for always, I certainly hope that that was worth it, Moron. Although I know it wasn't And they should have hit that loser with an additional charge and extra time for extreme stupidity. But the dumb just kept right on coming. That's not all. Then you have big baby Davis jumping in on Instagram to say the following quote. Real bull bleep. Like I said, you step on lucky you step on everybody that played for that team. Keep the bleep basketball before somebody get hurt in real life, end quote. Wow. All right. First things first. Mascots. Name is lucky. It is. That thing's got a name. Since when Never mind. Don't answer. I don't care. What I do care about is the fact that baby said I care what baby said about stepping on lucky that might be even dumber than stepping on lucky in the first twice what he said about stepping on Lucky is dumber than actually stepping on Lucky. You're telling me that if you step on the painted face off a made up character that you're really stepping on the face of Bill Russell, Larry Bird, Robert Parrish. I mean, is that what you're saying? If that is what you're saying, Make it the hell out here with that junk That is legitimately one of the dumber things I've ever heard. You that dude with the shamrock vest. The shoes with the bug horse, the pipe in his mouth. Did he drop 20 and 10 per game back in the day, and I somehow missed that. Did. He rocked at bow tie on court during games Did he roll up the sleeves on his long sleeve shirt when he dunked and threw down on the opposition? Did he play lockdown D with that black Derby hat? Was that allowed during games? Did you break out that weird wink after knocking down a three in somebody's face? Stop Bob Cozies face on the floor. It's not the face of Casey Jones or Dave Cowens, Reggie Lewis. I mean, yeah, again. That was a dumb petty high school move by Kyrie. And it sure is. How is no reason to throw water bottle or better yet threaten somebody with the hands or threaten to hurt somebody in real life. But this was not on Lee. A big baby thing. Davis was not the only one. Then you got Kevin Garnett, The Hall of Famer who also was bed he posted quote. So nobody going to say anything about Kyrie stomping Lucky. We're just gonna act like we didn't see that. TF going on? And a quote. And then he continued before closing out with quote. I'm just saying And then he threw in a happy Memorial day at the end. Again. I can't believe that they just keep named checking Lucky. Cause I didn't know that lucky was a thing or a name anyway, back K G now Like I've got a ton of respect for Kevin Garnett, one of the most intense competitors to ever step on the cord. One of the last people on the planet that I ever want to disagree with. Except we are going to disagree, because yes, again. Thomas Hell, Childish is hell for Kyrie to step on the logo. I have no idea why or how a future Hall of Famer thought that was a good idea and a cool statement. And yes, yes, yes. Kyrie in Boston was a complete and unmitigated disaster, and I don't know all the ins and outs. And it's no coincidence that the Celtics were better before Kyrie got there, and they got good again once he left, and I'm sure that's got to bother Kyrie a lot. You want to get out of Cleveland? He wanted get out of LeBron Shadow. He wanna be Batman and found out his Robin. So, yes, I understand where he might be looking to make a statement now that he's back in town, playing in front of fans for the first time. What The statement you make When you step on the logo is that you're a well I don't know. You're a big baby. Almost as big a baby is big baby himself. I mean, that's the guy was asking everybody to take the high road before Game three. That guy Yeah, I get that We all contain multitudes. But man, that really is pretty idiotic. And if he had been alone on Idiot Island, he would have been if not for some dumb ass and Kevin Garnett yours. He with a water bottle, And if it weren't for Kevin Garnett himself and big baby Because finally them being offended about stepping on the logo is his dumb is Kyrie stepping on the logo in the first place? Carry stepping on our logo is not stepping on the town of part of the park. Has for the fans who've been acting like losers for the past week. Get agog. Go ahead, knock out off to Kevin Durant said it quote. These men are human. You know, we're not animals. We not in a circus you come into the game is not all about you as a fan. So have some respect for the game. Harverson, respectfully human beings and have some respect for yourself. Your mother wouldn't be proud of you throwing water bottles that at basketball players are spitting on players or tossing popcorn. So go toe and enjoy. The game is bigger than you. A long time since I thought to myself after hearing Kevin Durant Damn That's right, Katie. Damn! That's right, Katie. You nailed that. And you know what That also goes. That also goes for anyone who steps on the logo and anybody who gets bent that somebody else stepped on a logo. All of the above. Grow the hell up. Man. You know it's bad, right? When Katie.

David Byrne on Turning 'American Utopia' Into a Book

"David byrne joins us now. He is of course the musician. The filmmaker visual artist and here primarily as an author of a new book. American utopia. he wrote it. And it's illustrated together with myra common david thank you so much for being here. Thank you this is obviously tied to a larger project began as a concert. Tour than a broadway show now. A film directed by spike lee and simultaneously a book. Can you talk to us a little bit for those who aren't familiar with american utopia which i feel like. I don't know who those people are at this point. But tell us about how you conceived of the project and the various forms in which it's appeared and was it all like known from the beginning that would be in these multiple formats going backwards. No it was not conceived from the beginning that would be all these multiple formats. I didn't imagine. In the beginning. That it would end up on broadway that that would be filmed serve one thing leads into another okay so in the beginning i imagined wanted to see if i could do a show where all the band members were mobile taught. The technology might have arrived where that would be possible. And it also required that i would have a sufficient budget because that would mean i would have to turn say drummer into six different players. All playing drum and percussion instruments like a drumline or a samba. School of something. Like got and i realized okay. That's more personnel. Can afford that a could. I went ahead with this. Which opened up opportunities for staging and choreography and movement and then lighting and everything else just follow. Once one thing was kinda complicated or decided then door would open. And you go okay. That means it then we can do this. And now i can do this except etcetera so some point during the tour. I kind of got wind that broadway producers had seen the show and thought probably i'm going to guess in response to the success of bruce springsteen's show people thought. Oh this can go to broadway. This could go to broadway in broadway. Audiences are ready for this kind of thing now. This is a thing that can be done very very different than bruce springsteen's show. But i think the idea was that whatever popular music contemporary music could work on broadway thing just didn't have to be all broadway music. I wrote additional things for the broadway version extended it reshaped it unused broadway. Audience would kind of come with different sets of expectations but also kind of opportunity for me to talk more to kind of shape the show in a different way kind of address things that you may not addressing a concert tour where people basically just wanna dance and have a lot of fun. The director alex timbers was helping out and he said david you know you could maybe have a a drop curtain here and that in a certain kind of way when the audience is coming in and staring at the stage and the curtain is down in some ways you can have an image that sort of prepares them and in a little bit in a way for what's coming and tear. Myra coleman yes and alex showed me kind of an old graphic. Did he probably got off the internet. That was sort of like the fifty states and what each state is known for and this may be done like in the forties or fifties or something like that. It's a school thing. What were your favorite states. Because you're laughing. I'm laughing laughing because you know you can imagine the some corn and some of them mining or of them are cattle. Oh yes and so. It was also folklore folklore from each state. So the be paul bunyan or casey jones. John henry all these american kind of bits and legends were in there. And i thought okay in wanna do that exactly but i thought that's a nice direction. Thank you alex. So i went to myra who i'd worked with before many many many years ago and said would you be interested in doing drawings and paintings for this curtain.

It's not every single John we you literally. It was big in Delaware that instead slander. That's slur was big in Delaware. The nineteen fifty. It was a pre talkie. That's got to the president just for the Retro Quality. Just just to take us back in time Lille and I are alone in the studio today. Stephanie has jury duty so it's just only al to celebrate. Celebrate the upcoming hog known to the gentiles. Valentine's Day is revelatory. Yeah that's right Ed. We will be speaking with some people who know something about Love Seduce today. They are among others. We're going to have the cast members of the web series soon by you about dating in the modern Orthodox world how carp when our favorite guests from the apology episode came to our live in Cincinnati to tell us a very very special story. And then if you like hearing US whisper sweet nothings into your ear. Buds wait until Oh you hear the lovely singing voices in our interview with cantorial student. Jacob Sandler yes he gets US singing. We really do put you in the Mood for love. This is love is in the air in twenty twenty s as the corona virus. But Hey you win some you lose so the the updates on our lives. Stephanie is currently only doing civic duty during jury duty somewhere in the five boroughs Stephanie was in Scotch Plains New Jersey having a great event there a few days ago Maybe we'll we'll get the update next week. Leo You're in the motherland right. I was in beautiful Israel. Why for my grandmother's one year as a memorial service? Yeah Had a chance to sit and study some Tomlin with my Gerke Hassett cousins. I dearly love and again you know. We're often kind of like you know funny about these matters here but every now and then I really do get the urge to be sincere when I sit with people who you would think we have absolutely nothing uncommon. But then you realize we are truly literally and metaphorically speaking family and when we get together that love that connection is completely puttable we have spent very a little time talking about the fact that you're related to Garros So how did these are first cousins of yourself. I Costa who went. Who Went Garrard in your family? My Grandmother's sisters Shula Married Girl Haas. Okay this is a particular sect of Hasidim. What is there? What's the What their vibe? Like what what makes Gerhardt's put it like this cafe after the memorial service writing grandmother. Someone was talking about a person who's become about Shuba who's found religion later in life and became a gir- haas acid and one of my cousins who is Haas it said really no one becomes Bolshevik becomes a hostage and I asked why not and my cousin said well. Because it's it's perfectly fine to be like a really religious Jew and not go all the way to where we are. Why would you ever do the house? We have no choice right. Mind way you ever come here. It's so interesting I don't have any Cassini blackadder's any Haredi in my family I have modern orthodox cousins in Israel whose parents my mother's first cousin hasn't her husband actually were leaders of the conservative movement in Israel but then there's not much of a conservative movement in Israel so if you grow up kind of conservative conservative acts like observant conservative but if you SORTA got a pick or are you going secular going modern Orthodox and they're you know they're orthodox but I don't know of anyone who's like got the hat and the beard. It's a great a crying. Shame you have Hasidic material written all over your basically and this is the thing that I I kind of realized this week. 'cause we were hanging we were talking and at some point. The conversation vacation got kind of really elevated. And then I thought you know moved to dial like three clicks to the right and we're talking about Cherry Garcia Right in one thousand nine hundred. Seventy right eating shrimps and the bus and the way to Monterrey. That's kind of the VIBE. Yeah really the essence of not just observing the strict strict interpretation of the law but really trying to find this motionless spiritual connect mystical court to it would love to. I WanNa hang with your gear custom in cousins or Greg. I had a slightly different experience but in its way no less mystical by the way while you're talking about Jerry Garcia on the bus. Were you on the conference call when I when we were all doing like a pre show Oh crap and Rebecca. My thirteen year old was in the car and she was saying Dad. Can you explain the the grateful dead to me which is a really deep question because you know I could say I mean. I think we'd been listening to uncle. John's John's Bander Casey Jones. Or something you've come on. Come on the playlist in the car and I could say well it's a it's a group from about nineteen sixty seven to nineteen. Ninety give is playing the debt side. But I could give you the Brownie right and you'll eat it thirty five minutes you'll understand everything about this man. I mean I. It's really hard to say because it's so much more than a band to six never made sense to me before I try them on. Meet cliche thing to say. One is a grateful dead. The second is tennis and attended attended. I'm like wait until you understand. 'em This is a great game. I just have to move my eleven right. I'm so into this now. I add my own mystical experience in Wia missing in Pennsylvania and a bunch of people came like they'd set up fifty chairs. Forty five of the chairs were were filled with super curious. Interesting people of all ages a young rabbi from Lebanon Pennsylvania brought his twenties and thirties. Group is like young singles of which there were five or six and they were super into it and they listen to the show and they wanted copies the book and it was magical. The Jewish Cultural Committee organizes their author series was three people. None of whom was is Jewish. Okay one of them was Nancy Russo. WHO's married to to Paul something? Jewish and Nancy is is Italian Catholic by upbringing. The main woman the director of cultural life for the Jewish nation is Amanda Hornberger. Whose husband is like something German Lutheran? She herself grew up. Congregational est she's on the vestry of her united the Church of Christ Congregational Church. I've always said that the congregation great out and there was a local librarian named John who grew up in Baltimore where he did sixteen years of Catholic school and then went off to college college. I mean literally none of these people even guys. Every time we meet a gentle on our show it turns out there a quarter Jewish. These people like zero Jew in them and yet they are keeping the Jewish heart beating y missing Pennsylvania. They were interested they were curious they're booking good authors. They're running great programs. The people they bring in Inter asking smart questions Jews by choice we had a convert. who showed up a Sherry came and said thank you for your your help on my journey? The podcast has been meaningful to me. gentile L. spouses of Jews. Why a missing? Pennsylvania was among the greatest afternoons of my life is how it ought to be how it ought to be. Whatever New York like fucking fucking A.? Y. A. Missing Pennsylvania it there. Are Jews starve reading. The News starts reading this and I want to see even today do an event at the Barnes and Noble in Union Square. And you'll get fifty fifty three people and I go to why missing and get forty and in town. That's probably like twelve thousand people get numbers you get. People are truly engaged truly engaged and so grateful full end their listeners and the ones who aren't listeners could become listeners I it was it was magical. Speaking of Magic Amazon is somehow making the Nazis disappear in news to the Jews. This this week we learned from the New York Times about that Amazon is and I quote quietly canceling its Nazis over the past eighteen months. The retailer has removed books by David. Duke a former the leader of the Ku Klux Klan as well as several titles by George Lincoln Rockwell founder of the American Nazi Party Amazon also prohibited volumes like the ruling elite the Zionist seizure of world power and and history of central banking and the enslavement of mankind from its virtual shelves. What are we think of Amazon? Taking strong hand Nazi literature out of its store. You're I'm not down with it. I'm not either tell you. Because here's the thing. Once you at a major conglomerates start making judgment calls about what is and is is not permissible for its captive audience to read. I think you're sorta screwed actually kind of a free speech absolutist in this way like yes I want everyone three David Duke Doc if only because once you do unless you're total frigging maniacal moron. You'd understand that this is absolute drivel. Actually want like free copies and like every this show be like. Hey guys here you go and try to get your way through mine com- If you can't get twelve pages into it. It's the most boring stuff you'll ever find. The beginning is funny. The middle sags the characterization gets gets a little thin toward the ad still never figured out how it ended. I never read it. No but really like do I really want Amazon making this call them. Why not the next up being like well you know This type of ideology is also quite offensive to us in history is in the type of thing we want people to read. You can imagine agenda that you can imagine where it goes very quickly to Jews in the Middle East or Zionist saying. We don't WanNa read you know the Hamas Charter and Palestinian activists saying we don't want to read. This spoke about the founding of Israel. I mean it's all of a sudden you've a lot of people who authentically believe that they are keeping genocidal literature out of the hands of other people saying what people can and cannot read and you add in the fact that Amazon really does have a kind of monopoly power. What we're reading? Yeah and find the these days of elsewhere.
