The Power's Point Podcast

The Emotional Power of Music and Hilarious Rants

Scott Powers and Jim Banks Season 5 Episode 20

Ever wondered why a certain song can bring tears to your eyes or make you smile uncontrollably? We kick things off with some seriously nostalgic stories about how music has the magical ability to transport us back in time. Whether it’s those unforgettable family road trips or poignant moments of loss, we share our personal experiences and explore the emotional rollercoaster that music often takes us on.

Then, we crank up the volume and dive into the mood-altering powers of music. From the adrenaline-pumping beats of AC/DC and White Zombie to the soothing melodies of classical music and Liquid Mind by Chuck Wild, we’ve got your playlist covered for every emotional state. Discover how different genres help us shake off stress, power through workouts, and even catch some z's.

And, of course, what's a Powers Point Podcast episode without a bit of humor? We bring back the much-loved "What Grinds Your Gears" segment. Prepare for some hilariously relatable rants about daily annoyances, starting with Jim’s epic tirade on baby powder-obsessed coworkers and inconsiderate drivers. Listen in for some laughs, nods of agreement, and a whole lot of fun.

Thank you for giving us a go, and hope you stick with us as we have some really amazing guest on and hole you have a laugh or two but no more than three.

Speaker 1:

On this episode of the Powerspoint Podcast, we discuss what music goes perfectly with what mood we're in. We also tell you what's grinding our gears. Hey, scott, drop that grinding beat, we'll be right back.

Speaker 2:

Well, hello, hello. Welcome to the Powers Point Podcast, season 5, episode 20. I'm your host, scott Powers, and with me always is the one and only Jim Banks. Hello, everybody.

Speaker 2:

And if you're new to the show and you're wondering what we are about, well, we talk about anything and everything, with the exception of two things. We don't talk religion. We don't talk politics. Why, you ask? Because we don't act like we're experts and act like we know what's going on with it. We don't really care about it because we like to stay happy.

Speaker 2:

If you're looking for those plays, there's lots of those outlets. I mean, there's only another a million podcasts that you can listen to that stuff for. So I spin the wheel and pick your poison. If you'd like to stay with us, well, we'll try to get you to have a laugh or two, but no more than three. Anything else other than that is overkill.

Speaker 2:

So, jim, yes, at the beginning of the show you said we were going to talk about music and the moods that puts us in. You know, there's some songs that you could be on the dumps in and you'll hear something from maybe your childhood and it'll like kick in a memory and it'll be like oh man, I remember where I was that day. Uh, I had fun with that. You know, like the family and we all sang in the car and you remember that happy mood, or, yeah, you know, you put your pet to sleep, or you went to a funeral and you heard a song on the radio and that instantly triggers that reaction when you hear it again. So we are going to talk about a couple of songs, you know, like mood songs, like something that you would hear, and how it triggers you maybe so, and me.

Speaker 2:

So, yeah, I'm looking forward to that. And also, it's been a while, but we are bringing back what grinds your gears, because you know what? Jim and I are a bunch of grumpy old bastards, and me more so than him. I think I've never seen Jim mad. Oh, I didn't see me mad and they're like Scott's an asshole anyways. So, uh, we expected out of them, but today we're bringing back that. So, uh, get ready for that censor button, jim yeah, you're seriously.

Speaker 1:

You might have to, because I, when I get everybody says, when I get mad, I get funnier, and that's when the gold hits now when you get mad when I get mad I get funnier and that's when the gold hits.

Speaker 2:

Now, when you get mad, when you get mad, and you know people are like upset at you. I know from a fact that when I make people mad I keep digging. You know like I'm going to find that one last nerve and no matter what the consequence of that is, you're looking for that nerve you're pushing it to have someone like punch you or swing at you or something.

Speaker 1:

Pretty much it's it's happened before so I just I I say the most craziest when I get real mad, I just start saying the most machine gun funniest spins on everything and just I have the greatest one-liners. And it just like people like they want to laugh but they're also scared, they don't know what to do can you imagine like somebody like ronnie dangerfield, like they fire off.

Speaker 2:

You know people like you are dumbass, you're an asshole, blah, blah, blah. I heard what you said about my wife blah, blah, blah. I'm gonna respect. You know like. You know's like, how do you come back with that? Or or somebody yells at you and you get an argument and somebody just drops a big F, you on on the thing. How do you come back from that? You know like. Or remember, back in the high school or elementary school, you get an argument and they're like your mom, your mom, and that was the conversation and they're right. Your ma, you're your mom, and that that was the conversation and they're right there because it's like what you know. So it was like your mama jokes, man, and they were funny, they were, they were so stupid and a lot of the stuff we said were stupid was stupid.

Speaker 1:

But just people would just end it or they get annoyed and just walk away. Nowadays, people relentlessly make you feel bad. It's like, oh, calm down.

Speaker 2:

And now we've had this pent up anger from things that's happened to us personally and we're going to tell you about it.

Speaker 1:

It's got to be, it's got to be released, it's got to get out of you like a pressure valve and you got to let off every once in a while.

Speaker 2:

So today, folks, is your lucky day. Out of you like a pressure valve and you got to let off every once in a while. So today, folks, is your lucky day. You're going to hear us letting the steam off. We're going to just jump right in after this commercial and, uh, we're going to talk about the music and then it's going to go bad. So stay tuned. Somebody's been sleeping in my bed, and here he is still been sleeping in my bed, and here he is still been sleeping in my bed.

Have you lost your sheep and do not know where to find them? Hi, I'm John Dewey of the law firm Dewey Cheatham Howe, your fairytale attorneys. The cat tried to blow me up with a stick of dynamite.

Do we cheat them? And how you can call us at 1-88-FairyLaw that's 1-88-FairyLaw. Remember when you think fairytale attorneys think do we cheat them and how?

Speaker 2:

All right, welcome back Before the commercial. If you're just joining us on the Powers Point podcast. Here we're going to talk about some mood swinging music, Something that might put you in a good mood if you've been in a bad mood. Something that might make you in a sad mood because it might trigger a memory from something bad that's happened in your life. Yeah, and I've had plenty of those.

Speaker 1:

What music does is music like it helps us with our moods. Everybody has different moods. You're happy, you're sad, and then you instantly tie music to either help you or deal with it at the time. So that's what I think music's just. It's great to like listen to all kinds of music. I'm trying to get my son to listen to different types. Just get everything in that way you can. It'll help you deal with stuff in life. You know, you just put on this certain kind of music or band and it'll get you through, like if you think, uh, happy, the the mood, happy, what? What music do you listen to to like for happy?

Speaker 2:

so I listen to a newly found group. I say newly, but it's been since like 2016. But I started listening to the canadian band. They're like the second best next to rush, even though I consider them better than Rush. They're called the Tragically Hip and they got so many good jams that their album your Favorites. This one's a hard one for me because everything on that album your Favorites Y-E-R Favorites. There's so many good songs, but there's one song that I will hear the beat in my head. The very beginning guitar man. I could hear it. But the name of the song is it's a good life if you don't weaken, and it's good. And just the guitar man is so rich and uh, it actually it puts me in a good mood and uh, I actually were happy.

Speaker 1:

I usually listen to like rock and roll, pretty much like acdc, rob, zombie van halen, you know that old, that basic rock and roll, just any kind of those guys or something to just uh, get me, keep me happy or get me in a happy mood.

Speaker 2:

I think you just named off John Wayne Gacy's playlist. What? No, I didn't.

Speaker 1:

OK, the night night prowler.

Speaker 2:

The Zodiac killer.

Speaker 1:

All right, maybe I lean more towards rock and roll and metal, but I believe, believe me, I know a lot about other stuff too good I'm sure you do, man.

Speaker 2:

Like what's one song that puts you like in, like a absolute good mood, like it's a game changer where, like you could be the most down in the dumps you can have a rough day coming home from work. You know it was a shit day at work, and so you turn on the radio.

Speaker 1:

You hear some classic, any of them by acdc, pretty much like shoot to thrill or I've got big balls and yeah, exactly something crazy, like uh, big balls, or like I don't know just any. Any acdDC songs, pretty much.

Speaker 2:

You know Rob Zombie, you mentioned White Zombie, rob Zombie, yeah, and when we were in Haiti in the army and the natives were restless and they wouldn't clear out, they would take the Humvee Jeeps and they would put these speakers on, not big like the Blues Brothers speaker, but big. And they would put these speakers on not big like the blues brothers speaker, but big, and they would play 1965, like, and they'd be all foggy in the morning and you're driving a hobby and you got white zombie playing just like blasting dude and it scared the heck out of people because they're such a voodoo rich nation, yeah, and I loved it, man, and so when I hear that song, I keep imagining, you know, like that guitar beat, and right now it's put me in like a really good mood because I'm thinking about their thinking of american freedom.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we're gonna victory they're like, there's the american asshole blue-eyed devils, you know so. But yeah, that guitar strum man is is, I is is. I agree with you on that one.

Speaker 1:

Now, when you're angry, what do you listen to when you're angry? For me, um, I'm gonna say it's heavy metal or rap in the 90s and 80s, kind of like the old school hip-hop rap. Yeah, like, uh, like Run DMC. Or I want to hear uh tupac. If I'm, you know, really angry at work, I go tupac on everybody. I don't like california. Love, hit them up. I'm ready, though I just start most discussing one crazy starting to put people's names in the song or listen to like marky, uh, some notorious bigs hypnotized who's um, I'm like, or if I'm real angry I want to scream.

Speaker 2:

I just listen to slayer or pantera just are in my park a lot, or just walking away in my head just like trying to scream, like get the anger out you know like when I'm angry sometimes and I'm at the gym trying to release this anger, I might add to it and throw on metallica's uh, master puppets, yes, old metallica, yes. And then I'm like all right, and I go with the beat and they're like, hey, take it easy with the weights. You know they keep slamming on the on the machine. Hey, incredible, hold on. It's like once you put your fingers between these, it's why I drop them, you know, uh, yeah, yeah, you know like the beastie boys are good for me because you know like sabotage, uh, I love, I love the beasties that gets angry. Yeah, yeah, you know you could just kind of yell.

Speaker 2:

But now you got new groups that like scream. You know you say metal, but but there's like a notch up from the metal. Like there's a group called Full of Hell that my coworker introduced me to and it's just screaming man and I can't deal with it. But it brings something out like I don't know like anxiety or something. Man, we're like what did it say?

Speaker 1:

I'm discovering a lot of different kind of metal music and, believe me, we're going to have to have the metal professor on in one of these episodes in a month or so and and dissect different types of metal and, like, really get down to it.

Speaker 2:

That'd be a good episode. He'd be a good guest. What do you do for like sleep music for sleeping?

Speaker 1:

I like I started to get the wife and to listen to classical music like Beethoven and Chopin and Liszt, and just like Hungarian Rhapsody number two, that's my favorite classical music it was. It was done on a tom and jerry cartoon that won a oscar or whatever I remember that so well, man but uh, pretty much classical music gets that nice melody like to keep to get you to sleep or calm you down, kind of when I am able to sleep, I bring on one of our, one of my past guests.

Speaker 2:

His name is Chuck Wild, but he goes by the name of Liquid Mind and his music is actually on the top 10 of Amazon Music for therapy and a lot of hospital patients played, played his music to like kind of calm them down. But like his song Night Whispers really good. His song Awakenings is like my all time favorite and when I told him that he said it was his favorite too. And you have to try that out, dude, it relaxes you so much and like he's like just don't listen to it when you're driving, you know, because because it has it, it's subliminally, it has binaural beats in in the song, which binaural beats is like different frequencies that your brain reacts different to and you don't even know it. It's reacting, but it it has like a deep sleep one. So when you're listening to it you're legit man, you're, you're done. They're like 10 minutes long and you lay in there but a lot of like cancer patients that are having a hard time, they can't sleep and all that they do play at them. So that's great.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and it's the name of the series is liquid mind that he invented and, uh, he's got like 20 albums under that name. So it's really good stuff, man, really calm, just don't listen to it while you're driving. Yeah, oh man, what do you have for sad music? Man, like anybody wants to be sad um, sad.

Speaker 1:

I usually listen to the blues or motown like uh, bill withers, uh, use me song. That's just a real sad song about uh something going on with his woman and stuff. Um, also kind of like they're also in the category of like sad, but it like he like if I'm hurt or something and I need like I have a migraine or something I usually put on like alice in chains or like grunge music and for some reason, headache. Yeah, it's weird, for, okay, if I have a headache, I will listen to alice in chains album dirt. I would just start it and just like I think that's everybody's favorite alice in chains album it's would just start it and just like I think that's everybody's favorite alice in chains album.

Speaker 1:

It's one of the greatest albums ever made and like that was beyond on drugs on that album. But I just listened to it and just all of a sudden the headache goes away for some reason. Grunge music, because they're all all feeling sad for themselves and stuff, and but then also on the other with that is like I said, the blues and that and just like Marvin Gaye sing to me. I'm in trouble now.

Speaker 2:

I mean Motown was great, the songs of classic Philadelphia era, or like down in Alabama, yeah, shoals it's. I can see that, like I love. When I'm sad, I kind of like listen to the temptations. Just my imagination, I'll be there to that. Or I wish it would rain. Yes, that's a good one, cause I'm like man, why can't I get a rainstorm? Cause I got some tears. I need to would rain. Yes, that's a good one, cause I'm like man, why can't I get a rainstorm? Cause I got some tears. I need to let go and I need, I don't need to be around people, I just want to go sob out in the storm. That's a good one. And, uh, I listen to a lot of CCR too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, when, when I'm Well, when you were in the army, didn't they? That's all they played is CCR.

Speaker 2:

What Like V&M music you know. Like with that, though, a lot of those songs that I love from CCR are actually protest songs. Man, oh, it's a whole different meaning. Like Born in the USA, I love that, but then I found out it's a protest song. So I'm like, oh man, I can't like that shit. And so I'm like, oh man, I can't like that shit, and I'm swearing Sally today. But that's okay. How about? Do you listen to anything for like anxiety? Not much, I don't think. So what do you listen to? A lot of club music. A lot of big DJs like Armin van Buren from the netherlands. He plays trance music. Uh, uh, I love this name. She's from australia. She goes by the name of alice in wonderland, alice in wonderland. She's got an awesome song called run dead mouse. I listen to like something like you would think anxiety, with that trigger beat. That, yeah, you know, but then makes me want to run through the streets naked, basically oh my gosh like no, you don't want to see that you know.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, don't worry, you won't see nothing.

Speaker 1:

It's like it's like a button and for a code man, it's got too much information.

Speaker 2:

Told you, man, when I'm tired, I'm starting to go a little bit too crazy. How about what else? What else for music, man?

Speaker 1:

Waking up in the morning. I like to do like the 50s, 60s or 70s, like back when I was a kid or something like the monkeys. I really love the monkeys. They had such nice fun music when I was a kid Before I learned. I learned of all the evil music and the devil worship and music.

Speaker 2:

The monkeys were definitely awesome, man. Sadly there's only one left Mickey.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the Elvis, the Rolling Stones, stuff like that.

Speaker 2:

Elvis. I've been an Elvis fan since I was a little tiny kid man. So waking up if I hear like some Kentucky rain or something, I'm always hoping the dude finds his girlfriend because he's been thumbing for a ride in the cold Kentucky rain.

Speaker 2:

you know the preacher man, yeah man yeah you know there's some videos, man, where it shows the funeral, you know, the funeral procession of his, and he the song long black, uh limousine comes on and it dude, it goes so good with his actual funeral. Yeah, but you know it's like some songs, man. I like his song ready, teddy, you know something so upbeat that that it starts getting my foot thumping as soon as it touched the ground and and I'm up when I am, you know like when I'm I am sleeping, you know so uh what else?

Speaker 1:

the last one I could think of is, uh, they kind of go together the moods uh, excited music when you're excited, your mood, and also, uh, tender and love music because it's gotta have some marvin gaye for that tender love music well, we see back when I discovered what women were and stuff and was on the dating team.

Speaker 1:

As to the blowout, though, yeah well, look, I listened to 80s hair metal. Good stuff, man. That's the music I associate when I was trying to, you know, get the old rocks off, if you know what I mean. And then when I want to get, excited that flapper. Yeah off, if you know what I mean. And uh, and then when I want that flatbird, yeah well, when I'm excited and stuff I listed, like rat or motley crew or docking or cinderella, pretty much the hair bands.

Speaker 2:

Those are good, good picks, you know. Again I turn to like the club music, yeah you're. We're gonna have to have characters caricatures drawn of us, with you with the dj headphones on and then me with the hair metal I can see like from the from back in the school day with all the hairspray can did like five cans of like uh, uh, the, the damn aqua, whatever aquanet I tried draw, I tried growing my hair long in the when I was in high school and that but my hair how my hair is.

Speaker 1:

I would have had to grown it like Slash from Guns N' Roses. It was so curly it would have took years for me to get anywhere.

Speaker 2:

Good, I used to wear my hair in a ponytail. I used to let it grow. My mom would hate it, dude. She'd snag it by the rubber band and pull. And I'm like whoa, you know, like you know, I love my mom, you know. But, man, if they'd seen the earring in my ear, they would grab it and pull it and, thank God, at first it was the magnetic earrings, you know.

Speaker 2:

Back in the day and my dad was like son, you, you're wearing no earrings, rip it. I'm like, ah, joke's on you, pal. But not that there's anything wrong with wearing earrings, let me just say that. But I did go and get my ear pierced at Spencer's in the mall, like when Spencer's was good. Back in the day, some girl with shaky hands was like this might hurt, so just don't touch my butt. Zorro put the earring in. It looked like Zorro put the earring in, dude, I had like lots of space around it. Yeah, that's it for me too. With the music. Okay, those are my favorite jams, but yeah, some get it for me too. With the music. Okay, those are my favorite jams, but yeah, some get it on music. Deaf Leopards love bites. That's a good tune, man, or what is it? Cinderella's. You don't know what you got till, it's gone.

Speaker 1:

Or 80s greasy hair metal metal music.

Speaker 2:

That's me or somebody else wants to listen to some of that 80s grease music? Uh, listen to saigon kicks. Love is on the way, oh my god, that's. But that was at the end of, uh, the hair metal right either way taken over the guitar riffs and that and that song is just so awesome. You know, know there's some music. Yeah, yeah, it's like where my collar popped.

Speaker 1:

So back then you were like yeah, the button's getting to second base here, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I didn't even know what bases were, man, I just saw watching whatever was on. Charles in Charge told me Scott Powers, always on the on-deck circle, always off, never got off, oh damn. All right, so we're moving on from this good old music memories and what gets us going. And speaking of what gets us going, there's some people out there that are just plain assholes, and I may be one of them sometimes, I'm not gonna lie, uh, but there are some things people do that, man, they just beyond irk me and I'm sure they do you, and, and I know you go through some rough spells at your job or you know like, oh, you know he's like when you gotta go, you gotta go outside just to like yell, or go sit in your car just to let out steam. You know, and hope to god nobody can hear what comes out of your that car, for that very appropriate. So, jim, let's start with you. Man, what, what grinds your gears? Because you're the one I want to do this subject All right, I know it's got to be good.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, let's hope my number. My first grind has to do with women wearing baby powder. Pretty much these women at my work are overdosing themselves with baby powder, thinking they're covering up all that twat funk. And I just got something to say. You're not fooling anyone. You smell like you just got done servicing the whole store. Go take a shower, wash that disgusting ass and go throw some douche up in that nasty box of yours, because you aren't fooling anybody, yeah well, jim, you really took it to that family.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, thrown out the window level there. I'm proud of you, man.

Speaker 1:

I'm proud of you dude, they put some damn they, they're overdosing with uh baby powder dressing like a, like a whore on sun, you know on sunday walking around saying they're saved and stuff, but no, they're, yeah, okay, they're nasty, they're nasty, they're nasty little what you do work at the most in-store photographed company, the biggest circus in America, I know.

Speaker 2:

You know, but I agree it's like who are you kidding man? What are you trying to like?

Speaker 1:

you got the whole bottle of Chantel on, or whatever they just have a little bit of perfume and just put baby powder, that'll cover everything. No, you're making everybody throw up, is what it is. We can still smell your funk, mm. Hmm, seeing you're saved over here, you're blessed, or whatever. Yeah, okay, meanwhile, every time you sat down, number five, five, every time you freaking burp, we hear babies cry.

Speaker 2:

Oh you gotta grind mine aren't quite that bad man. Okay, I've said this before, man, but it's really. This is construction season, right? So it says lane ends in one mile left, lane ends in a half a mile, lane ends in a quarter mile. You see that big arrow pointing, pointing, pointing Get over, get over. But then you've got your average citizen who wants to do right and they get over.

Speaker 2:

And so you're waiting in line because right on the other side of that arrow is a stupid street light that you know, a red light, stoplight, and of course everybody's waiting for the light to go from red to green, and you know, so everybody's just going. But then you got those assholes who are creeping up on the left hand side. They're clearly the lane ends in like 300 feet. And then you've already got all the Sunday church goers, myself included, on that right-hand side, like we're all doing our part in society. And here they come big semis, semi, semi, and it's like come on, man. And then they blast their horn, they make their way in because everybody's scared to get hit by that 18-wheeler.

Speaker 1:

You know, like man, just get hit and be rich you can just hear them saying I got room, I got room, I got room no.

Speaker 2:

And then they say I didn't see, I didn't see the light. Okay, there, you know. So, man, people pay attention when it says left lane in, stay in the right lane, get over. Stay in the right lane, get over, and and and stop pissing people off, because we all waited our 15 minutes going through the stoplights and everything. And here you go, 10 seconds you're already in the lane that I've been waiting 15 minutes for. You understand, guys who can't obey? Yeah. So if you guys who can't who just want to piss me off, and and uh, 50 other people waiting in line, and uh. So sometimes I really piss people.

Speaker 2:

I found out what pisses people off on this gym, what. You put your car in the middle of the lane so nobody can pass you up on there on the other side, and then people are blasting their horns, dude, like telling me to get over so they can sneak back in. You know, screw you, man. So here I am driving a little car and you got the big 18-wheeler behind. You know like, no, I'm going to sit here and let some other cars pass me that have been waiting. I'll take the wait in the line to piss you off.

Speaker 1:

Services for Scott Powers will be this weekend Possibly.

Speaker 2:

He was crushed. Just throw me in the sewer. What else you got to grind your gears, man? I got one more gear to grind.

Speaker 1:

Okay, this is with loud coworkers. We all have them, the ones who won't shut up for two minutes. It's like something inside them. They can't physically stop talking or have to hear noise, usually themselves, and they'll say stupid, open-ended comments to try to get you to talk to them. No, no, no, go away, I'm done with you. Or they'll stop by and start staring at you waiting for you to look up from what you're doing and I'm like Nope, nope, keep going, keep walking. I don't want to even hear you. If I want to, if I want to go go ahead.

Speaker 2:

They don. They don't talk to you the rest of the time. They act like they're your buddies when it's convenient for them, and you know a so-and-so. Said to who cares yeah, I don't care.

Speaker 1:

Keep walking. If I, if I want to listen to it I'd rather listen to a toilet flush than you talking pretty much I'll go in the bathroom and flush the toilet Pretty much. There it's all dealing with shit both ways.

Speaker 2:

Either there it's all dealing with uh shit, both ways either. Yes, jim, that is your first swear word since you've been on the podcast. Man, oh, my god, dang it, I gotta go.

Speaker 1:

I gotta say, man, you're growing up, jim no I'm gonna highlight that I can't stand people that at work that can't stop talking for a minute. It's like stop, you're not funny, just stupid jokes. I'm like no, nobody wants to hear you.

Speaker 2:

Yeah I, I, I can't say I. I know what you're going through because I work by myself. So I only get pissed at myself like hey, scott, you must be pissed all the time up. You know, I'm always pissed dude. Everybody else says there's that grumpy Scott. But yeah, man, I can imagine back in the day when I used to work with a lot of people and they just want to tell you what they had for lunch or dinner, what their wife or husband did last night, what time they came home. Who cares you?

Speaker 1:

know, like you don't have a life of your own, that you got to listen to everybody else's problem.

Speaker 2:

Winter is terrible because whenever it snows or something they'll be like. How about that snow? I?

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

I got to agree with that man.

Speaker 1:

What time did you get here? How long did you work today? And you walked in with them.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, get out, I don't care you know, like if, if they really got some kind of issue, man, and they need to vent and it's a legit issue, yeah, okay, I'll listen, you know? Yeah, well, I don't care about what you ate for dinner and everything else and how it came out and how it went in. I don't care what they do with the vegetables before you fed your friends, I don't care.

Speaker 1:

They walk by and say stupid commentary about everybody else talking. I'm like shut up, You're not a professional commentator. I am Stop it.

Speaker 2:

If you want people to listen to you, you just start your own podcast, like powers did yeah, then no one will listen to us, but five, six people right, right, and my own mother don't listen, but my ear does, my aunt does, uh, so my gear is living in a snooty neighborhood, like I do, oh, and it's 12 o'clock in the morning, you know, like midnight. I'm trying to edit my podcast because everybody's sleeping, except for them, neighbors across the street, and if you're listening, oh well, uh, just just being loud. Ruthless teens that that teens have no respect. You know, one time they were so loud that we were all sitting there was a teen parked under the streetlight right across the street. Right across the street, right, so they're smoking that tobacco there.

Speaker 2:

there's my, there's my grinding dogs barking, uh, but they were fornicating in the street light in the car and and we're just like watching, and so we're like we're putting a stop to this, so my kid backs out and then shines the headlights right on them. They didn't stop. Then I walked over there and hit the car. They didn't stop. What?

Speaker 2:

you're doing so I knocked the neighbor's car and he's like all right on the neighbor's door and he's like, yeah, scott, what's up? I'm like what's up? Obviously that guy is love. You're missing the tv show of the day. I go, man, can you please turn down your speakers, man, because it's very loud. I can hear you through my headphones while I'm trying to edit my damn podcast, because it's quiet time. You know, it's one in the morning. And, and I go look over my left shoulder, they're fucking, you know. And he's like what? And? And? And he's like I'm putting a stop to that. I'm like, yeah, good luck, I already tried, you know, other than get some cold water on them out. Yeah, so, man.

Speaker 2:

And then you got people talking about cheating at their spouses at the party because they're so drunk. Yeah, that's weird. So they're so drunk, they're talking about having sex with somebody else. And then I go over there right after a wrestling show, so I was all dressed to the hilt and the suit and everything, and then they had like a buffet smorgasbord of pizza, wings, uh, burgers. So of course I load my plate up while I'm getting ready to yell at the neighbor to turn everything down. And then the neighbor came out and like, can I help you? I'm like, yeah, shut this music off, as I'm putting more food on my plate and then I leave with the food I didn't even say thanks.

Speaker 1:

You're like calm down.

Speaker 2:

This is a to-go plate, but I'm just clear to complain that made all my neighbors laugh around me, so it's a thing of legend here on. I have a hundred and fifth street in saint john. Oh, my god, I'll let everybody figure out what house I'm in if you're really that sore. But uh, that's my grinding of my gears and you good on your grinding. You feel better now. I feel a little better now.

Don't make me get my button out. Legend, you know, I'm not doing the camera phone, you're just filming, dude. You're like, oh no, they'll call you a porn hub channel here.
