I thought he was going to be a guitar forever and was going to be it. He yay, thank you, good buddy, ship my bad. That's I've taken the big Yeah, I'm taking a big ripper, but my my box, Like what does be considered a box?

1:11 Mind? Now? Like I don't feel like, I don't know, I don't think. I think it's kind of how people used to call him a boom box or the so, like I got this Slayer ghetto blaster. I still have my ghetto blaster. That's great, I'm saying. It's like, yeah, it's like nobody really calls it that though, you know what I mean, right, I thought that was your name. I didn't know they actually called those things getting Yeah, I heard about that because that's what they used to say about the forty two bopper he carried a ghetto by last year. I remember when he switched to the Walkman for the disc one. It was really disappointing because you know, it was the iconic boom box on the shoulder. Yeah, oh we're talking. Oh I thug, you were talking about my mate. That's what you called my fate one time I did.

2:07 Yeah, it was a reference back to that. Sorry, before my time. Sorry. Yeah, they were just getting like getting out like Walkman's when I was born. You notice that the Discman was kind of a pain and the ass in its own though. Oh it was terrible, yeah, because you like it skips every time you walked, even if you put ESP on. It was like nap. Yeah. I used to hate that. What a terrible design I had. I had one that was like vulcro to the dash of my old truck, and I had the tape adapter that went in and then the plug. You know, I'm like, fuck, yeah, man, listen to my fucking jams. Any bump I hit was like I did, I did. The CD player is probably the biggest proponent for m P three's. Yeah, like when they were like okay, we got good digital sound music, like the qualities here, but traveling with it sucks.

3:09 So they're like, we got to come up with a better way. Yeah, how about if we just make something to play those files before they make it to CDs? Brilliant. You know the discmand really did push the MP three player. Dude, I'll be honest that when the iPods came out, at first, I was very reluctant. Yeah, were you guys reluctant? Welcome back as to your Kentucky X files. All right, I feel like we were we're getting into some hot, hot topics I was looking at first. I was I was a little iffy on it, but I was that I was definitely that kid that got everything a little later, like fence to my parents, like I always like when everybody was on like the iPod minis, I was still rocking the first gin like just going to school. Listens to some six feet under warning shot and I'm like still like scrolling like barely see that, like because it's like you're like the first game Boy. Yeah, like you couldn't see you literally had to look at it like okay, yeah, like so yeah it was pretty it was pretty bad. But I was like, dude, like I I like I even but even though I had like generations behind, what's already there? What was the point of Like, yeah, it was smaller, but this was perfect. I loved this

4:42 device, like it was so easy to carry, didn't have to have like have multiple CDs. Yeah, so like I thought, like, yeah, iPod, good on, fucking Steve jobs Man, brilliant device. I never actually owned one, but if I borrowed one and listened to it for a minute, I was sold on it. Yeah. I found my mind was at a pawn shop. It was the it was the first one and the big you know, the big fat one. Yeah, that's what I had. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the wheel. I'm like, oh cool, is that one of those iPods and them iPod things, those iPod Walkman's yeah, or do you put the tape? And I'm like I remember asking the guy. I feel like a dipshit ad mid this now, but I was like, how do you get the songs on it? And he's like, oh, well, you gotta you gotta download iTunes and he's like, you know, send them to it. And I'm like, oh, really, it sounds really not complicated. That sounds simple as hell. I'm gonna get this thing. And I remember frying it. It wasn't. It wasn't easy for me to do it first, and it got easier, which I wanted. I will not ever admit how it got easier, but it did get easy. And then that that blew up, like the huge craze of illegal downloads and stuff like that. Uh Napster Rick in Motion, which I thought was funny when when you listen, like, Okay, I get where

6:16 he's coming from. Don't get me wrong, I get where he's coming from. But it actually if you watch a documentary about like I don't know if it was about metal Blade or Metallica itself, because the guy that owns Metal Blade met Lars a long time ago before Metal Blade was ever a thing, and they did the thing because there was a magazine that you get at trade to learn new like new music and get new like new upcoming bands and stuff like that. And I'm like, that's kind of like Napster. You're sharing music, but like Napster was such on a larger scale. It took a like the music industry took such a huge hit. So I can get where he's coming from, but laws like he was part of the sharing of music, and it gets better. There's another little tidbit to that that makes it even better. So the guy that started Metal Blade, that started that Metal Blade magazine with the sharing in it, was originally going to call it Metallica, and Lars talked him out of it and took the name for himself.

7:30 Oh he yeah, the guy that started Metal Blade came up with the name Metallica. Wow, that's cool. I recently saw that in the documentary and I was like, what in no way of course he did. Of course, of course Laars stole the name. You know, that's crazy, man, I didn't know any of that's well, yeah, freaking I remember. I love that people tried to come out with something new with U with that kind of crap going going around. Did you guys ever heard of the Zoon Yeah? I got one of those. I actually enjoyed that. It was nice. It was was it was it Android based? I think it was.

8:18 That's like the android's version of Like I guess that was the first big time Android and iPhones started to This is all making sense now, Yeah, but Zoom literally just like it fucking fell on its face. Well yeah, it's like Beta Max. You know, anytime you have two of them coming up at the same time one is going to take off? Was was Beta Max the big ass tape? Small? No? I think Beta maxes were little small. What the hell was that? It's a fucking pterodactyl. I didn't see it happened. I just saw on my screen or something. I don't know, but it looked huge, man like. In comparison, it was fucking big. Got condors over there, I guess. So, Uh, you all out there listening and watching, you're probably you're probably wondering why we brought you here today, uh, the next, the next couple of weeks, saying goodbye, it's gonna be lonely. It's gonna be lonely without us. Put it that way, don't don't make a big deal about this, guys, you guys out there, it's time. It was time.

9:43 This is it. I'm moving so I can't record episodes for a couple of weeks. And it's it's solely internet based. That's the only reason. Yeah. So, once the stuff's all set up at the new place and you know, I'm good. Yeah, yeah, so I think we should give them a sneak preview of Uh, let's do a little virtual tour. Okay, here we got of Denny's new house. All right, let's you with you with me on this one, Tyler. Okay, So here's uh, here's Denny's sprawling front yard. It's a modest place. Really, yeah, it really is. I really like what you did with the trees out front, the cemetery, the symmetry really you know. Yeah, if you look at the one of the right, I I like mowing a square a little deeper than the rest, right, you know, just just to let so people don't drive past and not think it's my Well. See, the thing of it is that I think the humility that you have here, which is now the sidewalk that you have. You have a sidewalk for people to walk past, even though the house is like in the middle of four thousand acres.

10:52 Yes, yeah, they have to drive an hour back. And you know, cardio is a thing I really believe in, you know, and getting out and walking every day is you know. Yeah, and sometimes when you get out and walk, you like to walk over to your new stables for your goats. Right. Yeah, yeah, that's actually one right there to the left. Uh. Yeah, it's a different it's a it's an imported breed. Yeah, goat. So it's yeah, a horse uh horse goat hybrid. It's one of the mammoth coats. Yeah. Yeah, they actually used to be indigenous to the Mammoth caves. Yeah. There are like four hundred thousand miles long, right, that's he designed his house by too, is like right, yeah, it's over four hundred thousand miles like wide.

11:39 And like I've always said, if you can't eat dinner off of your stable floor, why even have a stable, right exactly, I've always said that. And then when you're done with the farm chores, it's time to you know, sit back and do some research for the show. And this is this is Denny's study. It was very hard to do that railing, like because we did all that handwork. Yeah yeah, all metal work right there. Yeah, you guys did the metal and I did the woodwork around it, and I handcore carved all those cornices. Yeah. Fine work on that. By the way, thank you, thank you you made the chisels.

12:22 You know, I appreciate you guys putting the cages around my books to protect my secrets. Yeah right, well, I mean you have to look out for your friends. And there's a part in this uh study that we can't reveal there is a super door that cave, yeah for his Denny Cave and fight crime. I'm just saying to hear that from me. That fireplace is awful clean. Yeah yeah. I have a guy that comes in and scrubs it clean every morning. Yeah yeah, right, I heard that. You know, extra like like ash is not great for you, right right, I mean, and you learn that in one of these you know books that you have. Yeah, you have a an enormous library that's yeah of information, you know, which that's why I have to protect my secrets, right, you know. Right, and then once you've got the ideas for the show and we get on and we record. Yeah, then you you know, you go over into your studio to mix a master of the show.

13:33 Right, Yeah, it's it's state of the art. I just threw this together. That is a massive console you have anybody, I'm just going to go ahead and say that there's for three microphones. That's a lot, it is. But you've got to try to contain these voices in, you know, into a show. It's it's hard to you know, it's hard to do. You got to have the proper tools. Yeah, of course, of course, you know and you know, I could see you've got your your studio monitors and your near fields. And is that a subwoofer under the center there? This probably is okay, if I'm being honest, I haven't explored the all of the acredge underneath that table yet, so I don't know if it's you know, I am a little I am a little miffed by the fact that there is only one chair in your mixing room. Yeah you know, am I allowed to bring a chair over? Yeah? Yeah, there's there's Yeah, you know, she just can't be scuffing up the place as all. You know, you know how it is, it's like shoes off. No, no, I mean no, I understand. I understand. I've seen your stables. I know how to have your studio.

14:37 Now for the listeners, this is this is the part you're gonna like. This is the room the Denny sits back and thinks about each and every one of you and reads comments in his bubble bath. Yeah. Yeah, you know that bdet was not cheap. No, no, I'm sure. I mean, when you're when you're relaxing, you can't be you can't be you know, accosted to wipe your own ass. No, that's just fucking just terrible. Right, and then you have those fresh flowers delivered every single day, don't you every morning? Every morning. It's awkward when he's in there delivering them when I go in there, right you know, well, I mean we both know your modesty levels, you know, yeah, very high.

15:20 I'm just yeah, I'm at least you have the bubbles covering you up, right. Yeah. Well, I'm like, if you're in here, you know, you might as well do my back right well, And I have to, I have to admit that when we're working on this room. Yeah, Denny did request that those windows next to the bathtub, that the window sills be knee height. I don't know why he wanted the windows to be knee height, yeah, but I did make sure that they were knee height. It's because I've always felt that my knees were like a very very uh uh you know night like one of my better features, right, my knees right, like they're they're very shapely. Yeah, I could see that some might even say they were handsome knees. So yeah, that's the new place. Uh, you know, I I'm moving to it. It's it's just you know, just a place, you know what I mean, it's not a big deal, you know, the show taking office. Uh, this is showing its rewards. Yeah, it's crazy. You know, I didn't think we even had that many times I thought that, Uh, I thought that we were you know, I thought that we were still burgeoning, you know, is that the right word burgeoning? Yeah, urgeoning? Yeah, I thought we were still kind of coming up so I can be more

16:52 photos of this is like you too, didn't he taking awards and ship right? Yeah? So yeah, I am know. I can't I cannot say that that my house that I'm moving to looks anything like that. But yeah, it's been a long long time coming. So yeah, I'll be moving over this next week. I'm hoping to be moved by the fifth. I'm hoping that everything's done by then. I don't know, but I'm going up to knock out a pretty good project today, which will speed things up quite a bit, and then yeah, we'll be back. We'll be back after that. In the meantime, we're gonna stick some some classics on here, you know, you can revisit. I don't know how you feel about that, Hopefully you're cool with it. I mean, it's it's unfortunately, it's one of the things that when purchasing a house, it's kind of like everything's up in the air and you can't be prepared until the last second. Yeah, and and you know, for anybody that's a dedicated listener, you know, hopefully they understand that we really just don't have any control over it, and you need time to take care of your life for a little bit, and then we'll be back right his reign for a couple of months, and then we go on our early hiatus. Oh yeah, it'll be fucking awesome.

18:18 I was about to say, it's like you they would have thought, like with that house the way it is and him getting fresh flowers delivered every morning, you'd think that you would just have moving people to do all this ship. Why he took care of this. Yeah, well that's the thing that Denny has a lot of special secrets. He doesn't want other people to touch. I'm just saying, no matter what, you definitely need to build that study. What is amazing. I'm very protective of my secret place. I don't like my secret place handled a lot, you know what I mean, Right, And uh, someone I don't know. The fucking ship was gold the way he just looked at you. Yeah. So yeah, this one, this one's gonna be extremely short today. I'm sorry. There's nothing I could do. I gotta I gotta go. I gotta go start moving, right, well, I gotta go continue moving. How's that? I gotta go, You gotta go, you gotta go. It's not you, it's it's me. Yeah, yep. So hopefully you guys are out there doing good and getting ready for the you know, upcoming holidays, and hopefully it's not too cold, because uh, somewhere after hitting my forties, I became a huge bitch and I don't like the cold anymore. M Which explains

19:55 the fireplace in your study. Yeah. Yeah. The only thing I'm I complain about that room is my desk. I just really wish my drawers were on the other side where my chair is. You know, it's a pain in the ass they are. It's a pain in the ass for me to reach over to get stuff out, Like my pens, my ink pens for writing stuff are right there in the top drawer in the middle there, and you know how hard it is to reach over and get that. But the drawer is hard on the other side. You could see one sticking out, but I don't like to keep my pens in on That's where my rolodex is, Rollo decks and your abocus h. It's got you know, phone numbers that are no longer working. I keep my phone book in there. Yellow and white Pages. Yeah, I haven't seen yellow Pages in so long.

20:56 I think it's encrypted. We just got one not too long ago. Did you really do it's like that, like it's like a comic book. Do you think there's a bunch of like phone book and yellow like yellow Pages employees that are just all disgruntled now and they're just they've had to like go back into the world and they're just like, how do you do all this without paper? Right? You know? I saw I saw a meme the other day and it was it was the picture that they used where the old ladies on the walker and the ladies next tour. They're standing up right, and it's usually like the okay, Grandma's time to go back to bed, like when grandma's saying nutty stuff. Yeah, and it said we used to voluntarily docks ourselves and we called it the white Pages. That's awesome, all right, fellas I wish I could stay on here and do more, but I got to go. Understood, it's for good reasons. Yep, you guys out there watching and listening. I'm sorry the episode so short. Back as soon as we can take care of each other. Why see you guys.

22:26 I loved it as green screen. When I did that, I looked at the post woman at the end morning. But during all that I would love it. I
