The track Free as a Bird is released as a single in late 1995 as part of an exhaustive Beatles anthology project, reaching number two in the UK and number six in the US. Those, that was a good thing. Anthology was great. Yeah, yes it was. So many cool takes of stuff. Let's see. Best version of O'Bloody, O'Blooda, I think. I think that should have been on the album. The right album is the other one they did. I'm starting to get the meat sweats gentlemen. Turn down the temperature in the studio. It's down to 65 and I'm still starting to... For the audience, before the show, I went out to dinner with the beautiful Dr. Veron and I went to this Brazilian radigio and it's endless meat, pecan, beef rib, all sorts of stuff and I ate probably about a pound and a half of meat with mashed potatoes and cheese bread and fried banana and then finished it off with they have this papaya cream. Oh my God. And I'm just like I'm starting to sweat. You got cement in you right now. It's just cement. It's sitting. It's just sitting. Like a giant pound and a half ball of meat. You know those old stock footages of the old construction trucks just dumping cement? That's what I'm thinking right now. Right down the gullet. So I'm starting to get the meat sweats.

She says how does Jim, who's like my brother, know the name of your show? He's probably heard me talk about it more than a few times. Well we have to start the show over. Somebody asked us to. No Dean. That's what you know. You got the alert. Come on buddy. No. He's treating this like it's the King of Facebook show. Well it never really gets off the ground. It's really no beginning no end. It just is. Coming back soon by the way. The King of Facebook livestream I think I'm going to be doing my first show back in a while. It's an out of control livestream. It's really just idiocy and stupidness and I think someone dared me to put a Whopper and a Big Mac together and eat it as one big. Yeah will this be on an early Sunday morning? No no. Coffee with the King is Sunday morning. It's very mellow. That's a tame. No the King of Facebook show is way over the top. It really has no rhyme or reason to it. But yeah I guess I'll be eating, since my blood work is perfect I'll be eating a McWhopper. A Big Mac Whopper. A big McWhopper. At least there's no filet of fish in the middle of that.

Selena was a good looking girl. God bless her. God bless her. She was a nice kid who ran into a raving lunatic unfortunately. On March 1st also Dave Phillips says Madonna was big in 94. Okay. Okay. This is true. Thanks. Wow. That's a fucking epiphany. Holy shit Dave Phillips. I'm going to just give him the title of contributor to the show. Madonna was big in 94. Really? She was big in 84 too.

I'm trying to not do that but it just comes up. Let's see on March 1st 1994 the 36th annual Grammy Awards are presented in New York hosted by Gary Shanley. Gary Shanley had one of the funniest stand ups I've ever seen in my life and he didn't swear once. And it was one of the funniest fucking stand ups. It came out around 86. It was so funny. And he just never swore once. Didn't have to. So let's see hosted by Gary Shanley performing the soundtrack from the 92 film The Bodyguard. So this is 94. But the soundtrack from the 1992 film The Bodyguard wins album of the year. Monster album. While its lead single Whitney Houston's cover of I Will Always Love You wins record of the year. The single version of A Whole New World performed by Peeble Bryson and Regina Bell wins song of the year. Tony Braxton, another 90's hardy wins best new artist. All of this is the infamous Frank Sinatra incident. You know what I'm referencing? Frank Sinatra receives the Grammy Legend Award. Sinatra's acceptance speech is cut short. They sent him to commercial while he was still talking. Other artists criticized the producer's decision during the show and Billy Joel takes extra time to perform his song The River of Dreams noting that he is wasting valuable air time. Wow. They disrespected Frank Sinatra. He had somebody killed over that. Someone died over that. What the fuck? It's always the young generation that's like eh. Cut him. Cut him. Huge mistake on their part. Because there was huge blow back. If there was social media back then that show would have got destroyed. It would have been. He only died a couple years after that. Yeah. But Billy Joel good for him. He's like he knows they're not going to cut him off. Right? Because he's big. Frank was over the hill. He'd done his time. And so he decides to burn their time because they were trying to save precious air time. And you know Billy Joel is probably a huge Sinatra fan. As you should be. As you should be. That's right. I have Sinatra Sundays here at the Casa McVera Sunday morning. Oh very cool. I have a picture of my father with his parents. Oh really? Yeah my dad had a nightclub so I guess they were there one night. But Frank was not there. Yeah well. He was off being famous. I guess that's six degrees of separation right there. I guess so yeah. On March 3rd 1994 in Rome, Nirvana's Kurt Cobain collapses into a coma after overdosing on Ropanol and Champagne. And what? Ropanol. R-O-H-Y-P-N-O-L. Ropanol. What the hell does that do? Does it prevent? Let me see. Benzodiazepine. It's Benzodiazepine. Look at me. I'm married to Dr. Vera. Benzodiazepine used to treat severe insomnia and assists with anesthesia. As with other hypnotics has been advised to be prescribed only for short term use by those with chronic insomnia. He mixed that with Champagne and it equals a coma. Champagne. I had a bad experience. Worst hangover I ever had in my life was Champagne. Me too. I drank a bottle of it. I was like 14. I can do it. I was 16. Almost killed me. Let's see. Let's not get into these stories.

March 7th 1994 the United States Supreme Court decision Campbell vs Acuff Rose Music Inc rules that parody can qualify as fair use. The case was spurred by two live crew releasing a parody of the Roy Orbison hit Oh Pretty Woman I remember that. Without a license from the publishing firm Acuff Rose Music. Acuff. Roy Acuff he was the guy that I think he roped Hank Williams out of money too. I think that's something. And that decision probably saved a weird Yankovic's career. March 8th 1994 Nine Inch Nails released the second studio album The Downward Smile. Great. Loved that album. It would go on to sell 3 million copies and be credited with helping bring industrial rock music into the mainstream. I wanna do you like an animal? You just bleeped yourself. I just bleeped.

I don't know if you've ever heard of it. It's terrible. Let's see. March 13th 1994 Selena releases her final Spanish album Amor. I'm gonna butcher this. Pro Habido. Pro Habido. I got it. It's production has been delayed because of the launch of Selena's fashion clothing line and boutiques and her Selena Live Tour in support of Live. March 18th Courtney Love calls the police fearing that her husband Nirvana's Kurt Cobain is suicidal. Police confiscate four guns and I don't have a gun. Fucking liar. And I don't have a gun.

Which to some of my friends is like that's just in there like Shudra that's Sockdra. I got some friends. That's nothing you're saying. But I know where I'm going during the apocalypse. And then there's people that say you know that is the whole thing when a rock star dies no he was killed. There's all the people that does have all these theories. Yep. Ah let me see.

They could have toured for ten years and made that money every year if they wanted to. Yeah. That's an album with Roger Waters? No. No. Well that's the first one with that. Pink Floyd broke up after the album after well Final Cut. I'm sorry. I had to say that. I had to say that. Division Bell was a great album. It really was. Did it have learning to fly on it? No that was a momentary lapse of reason. Which I used that term a lot when I was a union steward. I was a union steward like federal level for like 18 years and every time someone would get in trouble and I would have to bring they'd have to get called up in front of the man and you know maybe a chief or two and I'd always say people you have to understand this young officer just suffered from a momentary lapse of reason. That's awesome.

They are the smart to be able to with the joke that might even be one line or joke that has that natural arc of setting it up, or if you're the kind of comedian that Carlin was, which where your commentator and with Bill Maher was in this category of like, you're going to start going and you're going to go in and take people on a mental journey, entertaining them and delighting them and giving them, you know, getting in the right part of the brain to where they can be laughing at it, but also go holy shit.
