"What why you wanted to write about that particular part of her life? I chose that as a starting point. And it's a song I wrote maybe halfway through the writing process and it was one of these things about her life that I couldn't ignore. And I'd read about it many, many times, and it's always this alleged attack. On her. She was allegedly attacked and sexually assaulted by an American service men. While she was working as a secretary and office officer for the U.S. Army in Berlin. She was a teacher where she grew up. Yeah, exactly. And she was a teenager. She was 15 at the time. And, you know, I'm very, I'm getting really tired of women being allegedly assaulted and alleged predators getting away with it. And I wanted to make a statement of that song. There's no documentation to back it up and people have said, well, no one ever reported, you know. And apparently the soldier was caught and court martialed and executed. There's no paperwork to back it up, but I still choose to believe this story. And I wanted to start with this story because it was so emphatic and I wasn't going to walk around that. And you know, there are terrible tales of how Russian soldiers and American soldiers behaved to German civilians right in the wake of World War II. It's a horror story. And I wanted to acknowledge that because it damaged her so much. And many things damaged Niko, the rejection of her son by her son's father, Alan dalon, damaged her. He was so in love with him and he just ran away and ignored it. This was all at the beginning of her career. And it set the path for her life. And I remember in the 80s, people making fun of her for being just this stupid old junkie and it always got my hackles up because she probably didn't choose to be a junkie, you know, she probably was trying to cover up so much pain that she carried like baggage, her whole life, and she was impoverished her whole life. She didn't want to be a model. She had far more to say than that. And being a model sucks, you know, being a slave to your body like that. So she kind of went the other way and I think the beginning of this whole journey was World War II and also the song rip car drip card which details this sexual assault. That's an incredible song. One of the songs he chose to cover that she did eulogy to Lenny Bruce, which, to me, is it sort of brings it full circle in a way, because it's Nico covering a song by Tim Hardin, about another tragic figure, Lenny Bruce. Yeah. You know, it's kind of a interesting circle there, isn't it? I think she could relate to really, really well to what Lenny Bruce was. Yes, was going through. Yeah. And very topical at that time as well. And I think that, you know, that's definitely a high point of Chelsea girl the album for me. I think it's a beautifully sung song and a beautifully arranged song. And she really, she brought some emotion to the table with that. And to be angry. To me, people talk about how cold and emotionless she was and well, just listen to eulogy for any Bruce if you think that because I beg to differ. I lost a friend. And I don't know why. But never again. Will we get together to die. After I think as people listen to this segment if they're not familiar with Nico or only know a handful of songs like these days and the first velvet album because of hard artists to

Zip ties are one of my favorite things to have around the house. They do pretty much. Everything. Where do you keep your zip tops? I don't have a house I live in. I keep them nowhere, but when you had a house, where did you keep them? I had a giant baggy with about 40 different sizes of zip ties in my garage. Literally more than a thousand. I keep them in underneath this kitchen sink and I got kind of rats. Is there something that you have too many of like every time you go to the store you think I need better need more and you buy them. For me, it's zip ties. Every time I'm at Home Depot, but look at this. For me, it's got a color. The Phillips and the flatheads and all the different screwdriver bits. I always get a box of those every time I go to the hardware store. I've got about 5000 of them. I probably have 40 Allen wrenches. And who is this Alan? I could have used Richmond.

With us, whatever your situation may be in the meantime, we go back to Christie Lee at the bob and Tom news desk. A pizza delivery took an unexpected turn. What a squirrel. Oh, launched itself into a Louisiana home. Footage captured by Rodney Herbert's nest camera shows a squirrel quietly preparing itself. My nest camera will capture that. And the corner of her porch has a pizza delivery driver approaches the door. So obviously the pizza delivery guy doesn't know there's a squirrel about the right. Of course, he doesn't see the squirrel. When Herbert's wife Darien answers, the squirrel leaps from its hiding spot into the house, despite the abrupt chaos. I saw it. The shop delivery driver manages to hand off the pizza before backing away. Have you seen the delivery driver you can hear him going, I'm getting the hell out of here. So that the squirrel jumped over her head into the house quote. I ran to the dining room stood on a chair and yelled at Rodney to come get it out. I hear you, Darien. After a short chase, they were able to get this quote outside. You should squirt gasoline on all the squirrels and hang them from the tree in the front yard. You're burning. Chiquito mean that. That's all I mean. I wonder why it ran in the house there or flew in the house. It's feet tonight. Why else? Do you want some pie? Pizza. You think he missed his jump? Uh oh, I was going for the roof. And then just in the video, he's right there in the corner. It looks like he is waiting. Waiting to go in. So I don't know what he's surprised the liver guy didn't at least try to help out. He left. He didn't ask. As a Lenny Bruce famously said about Jackie and the limo. Anybody remember

He conned women out of money by making them get loans. Like hundreds of thousands of dollars in loans. He pretended to be a billionaire son and then he would wind them dying them, get them all caught up in the web, and then he would one day, you know, spring up on them and say, you know, my credit card is not working. I need you to give me and they would do it. And they would make them go to the bank. He would talk to him because that's why it was a scam and unfortunately. He didn't break any loss. What?

Okay, Thank you. Thank you, man. I appreciate the call 410 Wcbm 6 80 Toll free long distance is 1 800 Wcbm 6 80 Barbara is in Baltimore Barbara. Good morning. Lenny Bruce and think, Taking my call. Sure you can never underestimate the ignorance of a small thinking, small minded person. Anna Carol never disappoint. Of course, Joe Biden is a racist. And Democrats, especially black Democrats. Bend over backwards. To ignore, but it's obvious Because I heard what he said. He said. He referred to the guys it referred to his boy. But that's nothing unusual. Joe Biden has been making racist comments for the last 40 years that have been overlooked by the Democrats who voted him in. I'm not sure what people thought they were going to get with Joe Biden. He's always been incompetent. He's always been a liar. And now he's lying royally. I couldn't believe the man got up there and and patted himself on the back for an extraordinarily successful evacuation. Of Afghanistan, and I've noticed that the news is trying to move away from Afghanistan, because, um They're not covering that those five airplanes full of Americans and allies that have not been allowed to leave. You will not hear that I haven't heard it anywhere except on a conservative news. So I just, you know, wanted to say that because I'm just so discussed. I don't even talk to Democrats. Politics with them anymore. Well, it's not worth it. Beyond reasoning. There is no rationale to Joe Biden's statement or his actions anymore. No, there's I mean, you look at Biden. Do your victory lap. And who was it? Um Tammy Bruce last week, he characterized it better than her to characterize before. This would be like The captain of the Titanic bragging about how many lifeboats he launched. He was able to launch more lifeboats than any other lifeboat launch in history, completely ignoring the fact that the ship is going down behind him. Emigrates. Tammy. Bruce is excellent. Um, well, you know, I I just have one other thing I'd like to ask because I was listening to another conservative talk. Host on this channel Saturday and and one of the references was that we needed five. Conservatives in Maryland. We needed five seats for Maryland. And I asked the question that I did not get an answer to who are five conservatives who are not rhinos. Who will stand up in Maryland for anything. I haven't heard anything about CRT this critical race theory being taught in the schools. I haven't heard any protests about Forcing the Children to wear that mask. Even the ones who have been vaccinated. I haven't heard any Maryland Of, uh, Republicans Stand up. Did I miss something? You know, maybe you did not. Well, I know. In fairness, Nino and Johnny has indeed said this. I don't know. Who else in the Legislature on the GOP side. Who has, uh, Andy Harrison, Nino two. Solid. Yeah, okay, but I'm talking about Who is the father? Well, the five they were talking about this was this is the the idea that if Hogan and actually campaigned dumb ticket when he was running for re election Um, And if it could have been the the off year before, too, If you had gotten five additional Republicans, the Democrats would not have a veto proof majority. That's what that's what that references about. Mr Hogan made sure that Republicans were kicked out because he heavily campaigned against Donald Trump and everything, he says, and does Since then has been against Donald Trump. And now we have a lamed up and I do call him a lame duck governor, because anything that he wants to get pushed through, He can't Yeah, Power, So he decapitated himself by doing that. But I still am looking for those Republicans who are on a soapbox. I don't care feel in town squares or wherever having meetings at school board meeting. Talking about what we need to do about critical race theory and in these schools and what they're teaching our Children indoctrination into fascism. Well, said Barbara. Yes, I'm not either. Always and you know, it was particularly important is I'll wait for prominent Republicans who might run who might be one of those additional people who might get elected to come out and weigh in on this stuff, because that's actually how you build your name and build name or a commission. Absolutely, And that's where I thought maybe I missed the channel. Or maybe I would listen to something. Somewhat the wrong places because I haven't heard it. So I just wanted to, um, I guess. Just make sure I was on the same page with you, Bruce, because you haven't heard of. You know, we're both clueless. Okay, Thanks. Thanks, Barbara. Appreciate the call. 410 Wcbm 6 80. Tyrone is in his car. Good morning, Tyrone. Thanks for hanging on. Thank you, Bruce. Uh, two points I've never heard. I've never heard Joe Biden to any White man is boy. Number one and this is the same guy. I don't know why people keep forgiveness. This guy worked. With strong Thurman no less. To re introduce elements of segregation in the school system Back in the day. Okay, this leopard has not changed his spots. He is what he always has been. And I've asked liberal friends to explain the comment to me. And, uh, you know, you think you think I owe them money because they they don't get back in touch with me and explain it. Yeah, Well, um Just get tired of that dissembling. I've been haven't observing Joe Biden's behavior for his entire term. In office going back 47 years I probably start paying attention to like 35 years ago and all fairness. But from around the 1988 run on. I've been pretty much aware of him the 1988 run he made for the presidency. Where he stole the biography of a British politician. I used it as his own right, man. This is after he had been running around calling a guy named Curtis done who was the driver in the truck? That his first wife had a hit on with and died. That Curtis done had drunk. His lunch. Uh, Kurdistan was sober as a judge bite was doing this because he could get away with it. As the Kurdistan went to his death with the You know, then senator of his state, calling him a drunk destroyed his life. Biden has no conscience on that kind of stuff. Not only that, which is excellent, you know, Father and and, you know, shows us who this guy is. But remember, he's got certain ideas about who owned Dunkin Doughnuts. Uh, it's a very man it ended up being his boss. Was Black man who just happened to be bright, articulate. Can you believe that? No. That's such a shock, You know, to actually run into somebody of color who have something bright and articulate. Wow. What a surprise. Yeah. And clean. Yeah. Yeah, because apparently people of color don't know how to shower. And none of them have ever gone to any college or institution of higher learning. Actually, what? What I got interested in I could never find the information on is whether there were any other black people whether there were black people. In his law school. Because he finished all the ranking about. He finished almost the top because actually, almost at the bottom of his law, school class. Everything about that statement. He made everything about. It was a lot. Yep. So hilarious to go back and look at that. But, Bruce, listen, Enjoy your Holiday. And thanks for the show. I'm glad Thanks for listening to appreciate your way and in 410 wcbm 6 80 Tofino Long distance. It's 1 800 wcbm 6 80. Can I tell you how good Vinnie studio is for just a minute here?

What happened in the skies between la and phoenix.

And they all went back to work. Except for what's that all guys name Richard. Did he die now? But he had so many surgeries that he is unable to to actually be on the show anymore. This is this is like his best friend. Oh, um, Richard Lewis. Richard Lewis? Yes. Okay. This is a true story. Richard Lewis and I once got a new an argument with each other because I was wearing a T shirt with Lenny Bruce on it that my friend made And he insisted the person on my shirt was not Lenny Bruce. So true story, so I left. We're in one studio at this old radio station I used to work at. We left that room. We went into the next room. And the host of the show, Man Cow, you know, still still a friend of ours, Uh, turns to Richard. He's like, Do you have anything we could discuss in the next segment, and Richard says, Oh, I don't know. And I was like, and I turned in When I go, Why don't we? Why don't you tell me how the story about how you got into an argument over a T shirt in the other room, and Richard turns and looks at me and he's completely forgotten who I am, and he turns and looks right at me still wearing the shirt and he says Yeah. Can you believe that guy thought he was wearing Lenny Bruce on his T shirt guy in that other room? I'm like Richard. That was me. And that was that was five minutes ago. Richard. I don't think your eyes are working correctly, but he hasn't been well. For quite some time, and he is physically unable to perform now, so he's not on the show. All right, so some of the others are, and it doesn't given a specific date in October, But I'm sure you'll find out as we get closer. All right, as even though I did get once getting in an argument with Richard Lewis over something mundane, he's easily one of the funniest people on that show. We we have enjoyed him on the Wall and Johnson show many, many years ago when we were in Dallas. And he came through and, of course again. That was 25 or 30 years ago, so Oh, God, it was longer than that. It is something I want to think about how long it's been, but he was a lot younger and more mentally fit. Now, if something happens to him, that would be the second guy on the show. After. Bob Einstein, Marty Funkhouser, Larry David, Cheryl Hines, Jeff Garland, That's still a good show. It's a funny show. My favorite on the show is Susie Susie. She's incredible. Larry U P. Sha Yeah, just getting mad at him For literally anything. The guy doom. She's not acting. And then maybe she's so good that she's not like that. But I don't know. And then after the show had already been on the air for a few seasons, right, Katrina happens and and they and they was like the black family. It was like HBO said. You've got to add a black guy. So they added, JB smooth. And they didn't even try to pretend that they weren't forcing it, which is almost what made it great was like, Oh, now there's this black guy living at Larry's house. It doesn't make any sense, but but it's hilarious. It really is a great show. Y'all know what J B said he said Brand new Curb. Same old Larry. Mm. I believe the catchphrase for this one is, um you're allowed to be happy. Just not in front of me. That's actually really good. Okay, look very much looking forward to it. That is very awesome.

And then you know you could bring him out in five. Years and they can get back to normal and they remove that, and they just said it broke their guidelines. But a lot of my impressions have been removed. I did a Cuomo impression. Andrew Cuomo Because, you know he's got like 500 women coming out against them, and they removed that. But they finally just put the foul. She went back up. I think, because so many people were tweeting about it. What's the key to the Cuomo? Impression for you, Todd. Look, the Cuomo Well, he blames all this touching on being Italian. So you just wanna reflect any sort of responsibilities, like, Look, I'm attacked when we touch work, but she people, you know we go the world wedding. We grab your face. We kill your grandma and we sleep with your daughter. It's also studying so together. Yeah. So, uh, you know, I don't. I don't know if it's conspiracy, but they seem to be taken down kind of these more left wing impressions. But who knows? And Twitter is kind of done the same thing too. Right? There's been a couple of people who have said Hey, this isn't playing on my media player for some reason. Yeah, exactly. You know, you never know if they could just say it's an error, but yeah, that's that's happened a few times and I did a Sebastian Maniscalco. Comedians Matthew Maniscalco making fun of people with masks. You know, it's like, Why are we still doing this outside her writing? Mike's with masks, aren't you and Maris and that one was frozen. So you know, I don't know people. But people are showing a lot of love and and re tweeting. This stuff you're do. You're doing an impression of another comedian. I love it. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, Yeah. Yeah, Well, I My favorite comedian is Bill Burr. You know, it's like, you know all these work some of this strike back yourself Brutal. Oh. Oh, it's so triggering making sort of Dr Douchey. Little looking so good road, a timer. Fisher with us. Now before Fauci took off and went viral and everybody sharing it and re tweeting and all that kind of stuff. What were some of the other impressions in your repertoire? Yeah, man, Radio Woody Allen. You know he's got that documentary. Have you seen the documentary about him? You know, touching little girls. It's called any hall. Have you seen uh Yeah, I like to invite and Trump you know, comparing their speech style. It's fun because bite and I don't know if you know this starts really strong. And then he whispers the most important part of the speech. You know, it's like, you know, we're not going back there. We just there's this creature in the world, but we got to stop racism. Just operation I'm like, is Owen Wilson coaching him? Come on there. But then Trump if you remember would start really casual. And then he would scream the most important part, you know? Well, this is a fantastic Wow, Look at this Grab. There's gonna be like five million people here, right? But the radical left They're racist. And then he just started. So I was like this guy is just the opposite. And it cracks me up, man. Yeah, it's the reaction from the audience that gives Trump fired up. He'll start off and then he'll like he'll be talking about Kaepernick. And they'll be like, Yeah, they should fire that son of a bitch on And then the crowd of reality guy hates fire. That's so right, you, Neil. That that Z, You nail her right there with that one. Hey! You funny man. Whatever you think whatever your politics are, every comedian's like, Yeah, but he's really funny. I mean, you can't deny that I'll give him that is their woke culture in stand up comedy right now, Or is it I feel like like with everything all listen to s. Oh, there is my God like I listen a lot of little podcast. Joe Rogan has a lot of comedians on and things like that. I feel like I feel like it's kind of the opposite. Sometimes I feel like there's Real like 50 50 battle going on right now, with one type of comedian pitted against another in terms of politics. Yeah, well, I think Rogan is so important because his fan base is so big Without him. You probably wouldn't really hear a lot of the left woke people. But, yes, like it's a disease seeping into the waters of comedy. And if you're afraid to speak your mind You're not going to be a good comedian, You know, so I I after 11 years said, you know what? I'm going to joke about whatever I want, You know, I'll take responsibility. If it bombs or people get triggered or, you know, I was just thrown out of the show in New York City. In the West Village. What? I was thrown physically thrown out of the show for talking about race and all sorts of stuff. And, you know, it was kind of like you're a white guy. You're not allowed to talk about anything other than you know, John Mayer. Whatever. I love, John. There. Don't get me wrong Wonderland. You know, I'm e ticket.

The title is NBA Dynasty Series Chicago Bulls Real quick takeaways couple takeaways Scottie. Pippen totally underrated. I I mean. I know he's considered a legend and one of the top fifty basketball players all time. But but he's even better than that as far as the goat discussion. Greatest of all time between Jordan and Lebron James. All right I conceded. I think it was a year or so ago that Lebron has probably taken that title. I'm more than willing to be argued that I'm more than willing to be argued wrong as a Chicagoan but one thing is for sure after going through some of these. Dvd's Jordan is so much more fun to watch. I mean he just. He spent so much time doing beautiful things. High up in the air way above Lebron's had would have been so That's just a blast to watch now. You can't this is kind of a sneaky. Pick you can't stream this. Dvd set so. I'll take this occasion as an excuse to mentioned that. Espn's ten part Michael Jordan Doc. The last eight they move that up it was gonNA come out on June nineteenth. Yup the release date is April nineteenth. So obviously I can't wait for that listeners. I can maybe loan you my bulls box set because it isn't streaming but otherwise just look for the last dance this weekend on ESPN. I will be watching it. Yeah I have not seen the set that you are watching but I cannot wait for Sunday night. When the ten part doc starts it's been this mythical thing that's been rumored to be in production or potentially production for some time new house coming out and ESPN wisely bumping that up. I think it's something that a lot of people just like us are going to be watching my number three these fall under the category of blind spots and in this case there is a specific hook to Josh. Though it wasn't by design all explain it's my unofficial slash official. Bruce SURTEES MARATHON. So one day. I realize I'm kind of running out of options in terms of things that are really hooking me on net flicks and I know that there are some things I should get to real cinematic blind spots that have been mentioned on the show over the years that I feel regret about but they just seem heavy. I'm not ready for it yet. I need stuff. That's under two hours. I can knock it out and I needed to be reasonably entertaining but I do still WanNa feel like I'm getting some homework done. I do still want to feel like I've crossed something off my list that I felt for some time that I needed to get to so I went over to Amazon prime. And one of the things that popped up happen to be dirty Harry the first dirty Harry movie with Clint. Eastwood Don Siegel directed and right away. I realized how stylishly shot it was and so after I watched it I looked up who the DP was and I see that. It's Bruce Surtees. I think yeah I know that name. I can't really tell you what else he's done. I don't know much about his history's legacy at all but that is a name I have heard and oh I'll just file that away okay. So what's next? Couple of days later I go back to prime one of the film's POPs up. Lennie the Bob. Fosse directed film about Lenny. Bruce and that really is one for me. I've always been ashamed because I adore. Is You know all that jazz. Fosse's film I like cabaret quite a bit as well and in the TV series Fossey Verdon some of the making of Lenny POPs up in that TV series it. Of course POPs up in all that jazz as well. A lot of cutting to scenes of the fosse alter Ego Joe Gideon cutting the movie. That would become lenny so it was kind of just been a joke for me that I've never watched this film. I decide I'm going to sit. And Watch Lenny and. I'm watching the credits. And whose name POPs up is responsible for the Black and white cinematography. It's Bruce Thirty so then decide okay. Well this is just too convenient too much of a coincidence. We're going to make this happen and I'll give you just a little bit of background on him. Is He a name? That's familiar to you at all Josh. Young familiar with the name. I don't think I would have been able to identify any of his movies though right so he got his start as a camera. Operator working with Don Siegel and especially on Siegel and Clint Eastwood Films in the late. Nineteen sixty so movies like two mules for sister Sarah and Cubans Bluff and then his first role as a cinematographer. As the director of photography was Nineteen. Seventy-one it was the beguiled so that Seagal Directing Eastwood and then play misty for me followed that where he was working with eastward again but this time Eastwood as director that was his debut he died in twenty twelve and if you look at his. Imdb the early two thousands in the nineties were not good to surtees out of maybe twenty. Titles there's not one that really stands out as essential viewing and even at the end of the eighties. The decade closed for surtees with rat boy back to the beach and licensed to drive in the eighties for him was otherwise filled with a lot of eastwood's stuff prior to that so movies like Fire Fox and tight rope and sudden impact even honky. Tonk man his heyday really was the nineteen seventies which brought me to night moves. This is an Arthur Penn. Early Bleak Neo Noir starring Gene Hackman as a former football player turned disillusioned private. I would other type of private. I is there in the seventies and it's all set within the movie business so it's reflexive to in the mode of Altman's the long goodbye and then the one I most recently watched was another Eastwood blindspot. Which is Pale writer?
