01:06.40
Bill
Yeah, so have you heard that song the one I was just playing? Let me let me say that again bro hang on before because I probably still have it running in the background so you have you so have you heard this song the one that’s playing right now.
01:12.25
Scott
Um, ah no before the vocals came in. Yeah.
01:21.68
Scott
Now before the vocals kicked in it sounded like it was gonna be Audioslave.
01:37.87
Scott
Before the vocals came in I thought it was Audioslave. I was expecting Chris Cornell to come playing in there but then the vocals hit it definitely wasn’t Chris Cornell.
01:47.55
Bill
It does have that Audioslave vibe. It’s got that rage against a machine vibe. So that who’s the guitar player of those 2 bands that’s Tom Morello so the band I was just playing was extreme another hair metal band. Yeah yeah, yeah.
01:54.41
Scott
Um, Tom Morello.
02:00.77
Scott
Um, Extreme from as in like more than words.
02:05.46
Bill
So they’re putting out new songs. All of a sudden. It’s like they haven’t recorded anything together in 12 years or something like that and boom. It’s now on Spotify they put out a song. It was a brand new song and it was right when I was at the NAMM Show and everyone was like did you hear that new extreme song that new guitars all out from that new extreme song. And yeah I went and I listened to it. It is a. Fucking insane song and then all of a sudden he put up 2 brand new songs. So this one just came out with another one like a week and a half ago and they just leak them out and when you listen to it. It’s like there’s not many bands that still can come back after ah, a hiatus like that and get any kind of movement at all today.
02:41.80
Scott
Yeah.
02:44.36
Bill
But this extreme band is doing it like everybody’s talking about them and the reason I was excited that you said audio slave one of the the bands that um to Morello really likes is extreme because the way that that guy plays Nuno be in court their mean guitar player. He plays very much like Tom Morello but time.
02:55.77
Scott

Bill
All right? So we’ve left Estonia the the great riches that were coming to us from Estonia to be two hundred and fiftieth in the United States how many people do if they get to the two hundred and fiftieth listing of the podcasts in the film category Scott you think it might be 2

07:31.47

09:15.92
Scott
Ah, it.
09:26.40
Bill
Ah, yeah, ah it was my favorite That was my favorite remember those red tapes went around did you ever Oh man those were I think the simpsons were taking a lot of inspiration from those red tapes right? calling the the red I’ve heard them called different things but it was prank phone calls to the tube bar.
09:27.20
Scott
Ah, oh man. Oh yeah.
09:44.32
Bill
And the guy who would answer his name was red and her voice was not like this how your son of a bench motherfucker cock sucker and like people would call and go a is ah you know bend over there are Ben Ben Bend over ah we would laugh at him. It was just right out of the Simpsons cartoon. So I saw the Simpsons cartoon first and then.
09:44.37
Scott
Um, yeah.
09:59.78
Scott
Um, yeah.
10:02.98
Bill
I sold those tapes? no no I got that backwards I remember finding those tapes in Pittsburgh with my cousins. Yeah before the simpsons and remembering thinking the simpsons were ripping off those tapes like I do something I do something that people didn’t know but clearly it inspired the simpsons.
10:18.30
Scott
Yeah I remember the jerky boys had a huge thing in like the late 80 s early 90 s remember they had like the the prank albums the Cd albums.
10:28.27
Bill
And that was another one that was passed around before it became you know a ah a produced thing. It was just shitty cassette tapes and somebody got a ah good quality of them and pressed them. Masterdom put them back out. Found those 2 guys and was like hey man we’re about to make you rich.
10:33.85
Scott
Um, yeah.
10:43.25
Scott
Yeah I remember the first summer I heard the jerky boys it was actually on a mix tappe that I got as like one of those giveaways when you go to the record store and buy something you spend so much I give you a free mixtape I did that at like a local corner shop here and that’s the first time I ever heard the jerky boys and I was like this is.
10:44.99
Bill
Oh right.
11:01.70
Scott
Crazy.
11:02.40
Bill
I remember how much I liked the Stern show I was a big fan of Captain Cnx do you remember him. He is a local guy. Yeah I actually became friends with him when I was in the band with Kenneth Keith Callen back and we actually got kind of friendly captain jenx but he was a great prankster and he was. He was so good at.
11:08.52
Scott
Um, oh yeah, it’s a local guy.
11:15.40
Scott
Um, oh yeah.
11:21.16
Scott
Yeah, Catherine Jecks was the guy from the oj when he did the oj in the white bronco a COj and he’s slouching that was him I they were giving him credit for it. So if that wasn’t him. They gave him credit for it.
11:21.21
Bill
Ah, he got through to like Hawk Hogan on see it ed 1 time he’s so fucking. Good.
11:30.80
Bill
Well play right there that was him I didn’t actually think that was him.
11:41.90
Scott
Right? after it happened and if it were him I’d certainly take credit because nobody else came forth.
11:45.13
Bill
Man that’s right oh those were the good. The good old days when the Stern show was like that every day with somebody getting their balls busted.
11:55.20
Scott
Um, oh man, this is a great segue into something I wanted to talk with you about I’ve been getting into this and I’m late to the game I was actually anti this until last weekend. Um I don’t know what kind of mood I was in. But it was different than anything I’ve ever been into before because one of the channels here on streaming was showing ah bad grandpa Jackass presents bad grandpa from 2013 and then they backed it up with jackass forever that just came out last year in 2022 and I was never a jackass guy.
12:25.70
Bill
Um, yeah.
12:28.17
Scott
I laughed my fucking ass off and I was I was never a fan of like the cringe Tv the prank tv prank phone calls made me feel kind of douchy listening to it sometimes but this past week get man I laughed like I lost my fucking head.
12:28.71
Bill
Wow.
12:44.99
Scott
I was crying I couldn’t breathe at one point I was seeing stars. No I hated it. You used to try and turn me onto that. Um, impractical jokers and shit like that and that just like made my skin crawl like I did not like watching anything like that putting people in awkward situations and like.
12:46.22
Bill
Yeah, this was right up your alley in my mind I can’t believe you haven’t seen those.
13:04.46
Scott
Me just voice to he just vouristically watching it like I fucking hated that like there was times I had to turn off the Stern show because I didn’t I didn’t like crank calls like that. But yeah.
13:13.32
Bill
How about I guess I live for it because the conflict on the Stern show and the same conflict on jackass and you know what we’re going to talk about daytime tv today with the ah passing of Jerry Springer but the conflict on daytime tv there was something going on in the 90 s.
13:25.57
Scott
Um, oh ok.
13:32.33
Bill
It was especially contentious on every media talk shows radio shows Tv movies were getting super violent. Everything was about like arguing and fighting.
13:37.93
Scott
Um, so ah.
13:42.31
Scott
But here’s the thing like people that went on the springer show and the guys that work on the Stern show. They knew that part of their gig of going on the show or going to work. They were going to get balls busted. They were signing up for that people that were like. Picking up the phone call just randomly to prank callers or people that just happened upon these impractical joker assholes like I don’t that’s usually me I’m usually that fucking guy and that’s who I can’t watch that shit then but like Jackass I don’t know what it was about jackass for but when they fucking launched that wee man like. Nine feet in the air off of a fucking catapult. Oh my god like I was laughing so good and I know that jackass is like been around for fucking ever I mean we talk about like old school Mtv programming and stuff like that. Um, not going back as far as the 80 s like what we typically talk about here but I had to bring it up because I figured this would have been something you. Probably into for a long time.
14:37.90
Bill
Yeah I love jackass I loved it even when it was getting long in the tooth I was like keep on breaking these guys’s legs like their pain is my joy fucking Johnny Knoxville’s got like 12 catheters in him at all times and he’s still throwing himself. You know through fucking space with the with the slingshot.
14:46.70
Scott
Ah, yeah.
14:53.84
Scott
Yeah, and Steve O to Steve oh the shit he does man. He’s just you think he’d be done with it by now he he he’s done at all. He has nothing left to prove but he’s still out there mixing it up.
14:55.80
Bill
He’s out of his mind. They’re doing that for our entertainment.
15:09.28
Bill
There’s one old Skid that I still think of fondly like it just pops in my head sometimes where everybody’s just walking into a it’s probably because I work in a place where there’s a a walk in kitchen kind of conference room and everybody just walks in and there’s this giant fucking oversized hand. It’s like a massive hand. And it’s pulled back and it’s on a spring It’s pretty loaded guy walks into the room just to get a bagel or wap giant head waps on in the face throws everything he had his head to the air that’s fucking funny shit. Yeah, but it’s definitely victimizing ran the people.
15:26.92
Scott
Um, ah, slap of right face.
15:35.49
Scott
Ah, yeah I don’t know if I don’t know if you saw the new one. It really is I don’t know if you saw the the newest jackass forever movie but they did something very similar to the hand they would have like these inflatable. Whobs of air that would just shoot out the side of a coffee truck. The guy over and get a coffee and it would either like smack him right in the face of the coffee went everywhere or they had 1 that was lower that came out and smacked him right in the nuts. Oh it was so good.
16:08.71
Bill
Ah, yeah, there’s one where they have ah bamar jarra so bamar jarra is they’re all from the area our area I don’t know if you know that but bamargera I guess is was usually more out and about and ah in Westchester Pennsylvania and I was at a show.
16:15.37
Scott
Um, yeah.
16:24.66
Bill
And there was a bass player in a band called CKY that I used to play music with so I was going to check him out in CKY and Bam was there was at the tla I think in Philly and he was just Ben talking about a bull in a China shop he I didn’t know the guy I never bet the guy really in my life.
16:33.72
Scott
E.
16:41.81
Bill
And he had already spilled 2 beers on me I was just like fuck this guy everybody can’t stay this guy. He’s so out of control but it was still kind of like oh you know Bam I guess he let bam do it what bam’s got to do. Well bam now he’s not in the last jackass because he’s just you know he’s not well when everybody else got well and realized hey there’s there’s more value in doing this healthy than not doing it healthy and that there’s a big dispute going on between bam and the jackass guys I don’t know how much you know about that.
17:04.58
Scott
Oh yeah, well I know Steve O is is work in recovery and last thing I read about bam was there’s a warren out for his arrest in westchester because he assaulted his brother and he was last seen in the the woods of Chester County with Pennsylvania state police looking for him I have heard since that he turned himself in but before that he was breaking out of a rehab out west so I mean I hope he finds what he’s looking for and gets healthy before it’s too late, but it sounds like the rest of the guy saw the light and he’s still out there doing it his way.
17:41.71
Bill
It’s got to be tough being a celebrity who the world forgot you and you’re just you know, still trying to hang on to like I don’t really have anything but show business and everybody’s forgetting me and you know what do you? do you know What do you do? What do you do? If. You’re bad like there’s no second. Life for him. It’s kind of like you know you you kind of age out as a stripper you probably age out as a guy on Jackass like eventually you just can’t handle. It.
18:04.34
Scott
Yeah, he came up as a skateboarder though and like I look at Tony Hawk and that dude’s still out there shredden as a skateboarder and he’s older than bam.
18:12.92
Bill
You got a good point. How old is that guy. He’s still in everything you still see him in commercials. He does caios at fucking movies Fucker looks younger than ever. Well, he just destroyed any argument I had had.
18:18.85
Scott
Ah, yeah, yeah I know.
18:31.97
Scott
Ah, oh man.
18:33.42
Bill
Here ready.
18:37.97
Scott
Oh no I do I do I got 2 So first off I don’t know this was your fuck up or your my fuck up e but.
18:38.27
Bill
You know what? that means that that oh you got 1 let’s hear it.
18:53.39
Scott
Going back? 2 episodes we were talking about it was the l a episode because you were out in l a and we were talking about how the different areas of l a look like different architecture architecture from around the country and I said oh that’s how you can shoot a show called all we sunny in Philadelphia from hollywood. And you said yeah, in fact, there’s a patty’s pub in Philadelphia that looks nothing like the patty’s pub you know from television. It’s actually not called Patty’s pub it’s actually called max tavern named after his character Mac I talked by Rob Mcelhanney owning it his character Mac. From the show they named it’s called max tavern it’s not called Patty’s pub in Philly.
19:31.23
Bill
No well that it has absolutely no relevance to the show.
19:37.40
Scott
Yeah, and ah, my wife picked that one out for us. So I’ll share that and secondly last week
19:41.29
Bill
Why wait wait. But so why does this bar get any kind of recognition because the guy who owns it is 1 of the guys who star in the show. So it’s not the bar from the show like I remember going in to go and this is the bar from the fucking show.
19:47.87
Scott
Yeah, that’s it now there’s nothing now if you went into that place thinking that you aren’t too familiar with the show looks nothing like it from the outside or the inside.
20:00.53
Bill
I Thought you and I did that both walked in and said oh this is kind of cool. This is the bar from the show.
20:06.18
Scott
Yeah, we walked in, we both had a had a beer. Um, we went to a couple places that trip think we went to to Monks. We went to a couple good places in Philly but um, while we were there. Um, we just say I was kind of like oh this is this is it like this isn’t it. But it was it. It’s only anything because Rob Mcilhanney owns it.
20:28.79
Bill
Now I remembering we’re going in going. Oh my god it looks just like it. It looks just like it. Yeah, this is so awesome to be it here. We’re drunk. We’ve been to 50 bars. We went from old city to fucking.
20:37.90
Scott
Um.
20:42.27
Scott
Ah, ah, um.
20:47.22
Bill
Center City was Monk’s, a Belgian beer place. What’s the other one.
20:47.97
Scott
Oh shit the other one was from last week this one was all me I gave a shout out to screen Crush and I thanked Steve and Doug. However, it’s Ryan and Doug. Brian Ery from screen crush and doug the important thing is I got the dog’s name right? Unfortunately I got dude’s name wrong. So I’ll own that and another shout out to screen crush. They do great work for Marvel and star wars and any kind of show breakdown that you’re you’re watching right now. Really.
21:24.73
Bill
Edit here we should retweet or tweet out that we mentioned them remind me to do that right? Ryan and Doug well Steve is Ryan’s dad so you know there’s special thanks to Ryan’s dad Steve
21:31.18
Scott
M.
21:44.14
Bill
For having Ryan and creating the show.
21:45.51
Scott
Um, Steve.
21:48.83
Bill
For creating the show. All right was that it that’s it just too My many mistakes.
21:55.42
Scott
2 fuck operas. But yeah, not huge, not changing the world but I’ll own him. We’re not fake news here man we have truth we broadcast nothing but the truth as we see it.
22:01.51
Bill
All right? That’s not so bad.
22:10.56
Bill
Just like a good just like a good daytime talk show only talks about the truth. Really those shows are vehicles to try to get to the heart of truth. It’s sometimes having the hard conversations in very respectful ways but getting to the ultimate truth is what we’re trying to do in Daytime talk shows and what I’ve done is I created a list of daytime talk shows that I remembered I got 20 of them.
22:45.30
Scott
20 oh my god.
22:47.11
Bill
There’s more but I remember 20 as I was sitting and thinking of Jerry Springer I was like when he was coming up I remember there was so many of them. There were a lot that they kind of a lot of them kicked pretty quick. Some of them I’m remembering because they were just New York Affiliates I don’t even know how.
22:54.93
Scott
There were.
23:06.57
Bill
Widespread they were because this was early on like before there was all affiliate Tv cable tv hadn’t really syndicated and and and gotten as far as they’ve they’ve become ah, they are now I don’t know cables tv still around I don’t I cut the court years ago I I stop paying attention. So.
23:25.14
Bill
Thank God for Daytime trash for daytime trash Talk tv.
23:33.50
Scott
Um, a lot of these I Only saw if I was home sick from school.
23:35.15
Bill
I loved them I love them I really I sought them out sadly because like I said I loved the Stern show I loved the good fight I grew up at a house of fights. So like fights were probably comfort to me and I would love these shows.
23:52.77
Scott
Let me ask you this and maybe I’ll just have to wait to see how the list goes did you include courtroom shows as these daytime shows. Ok ok because a lot of the ones I remember watching were always like divorce court or.
24:02.82
Bill
Ooh I did not and maybe I should have.
24:11.31
Scott
Um, Judge Wabner was he divorce court. People’s court. That’s right, That’s right? So yeah I was wondering if you included them but there was a whole other genre right? there.
24:12.21
Bill
Yeah, he was people’s court.
24:22.46
Bill
Um, members Bailey Bailiff was Rusty why do I remember that? yeah the other day I was flipping through I’m still trying to figure out everything that’s on hulu just everything seems to be there and.
24:28.42
Scott
Um, vaguely yeah I don’t know. Ah.
24:39.95
Scott
Um, yeah.
24:40.45
Bill
That ah, that older people like so what my parents in law are like oh what’s on Tv I’m like I cut the cord but here we have who that’s got the divorce court channel like all right. There’s a divorce court chat and it’s just nonstop divorce court Tv and I was watching this thing I sit down I was like none of this is court. This is just a talk show.
24:49.00
Scott
Wow.
24:58.64
Bill
Where the judges just be rating stupid people. Nothing was lawful without any of it. It’s crazy shit.
25:01.90
Scott
I Want to see I Want to see how many of those people actually out I Want to see how many of those people actually pass the bar and I don’t mean the bar on the way to work where they sat down and drank I wouldn’t mean like the bar exam is what I’m talking about.
25:09.13
Bill
Yeah, yeah, not not.
25:18.11
Bill
Ah, Gavel is a fucking.
25:27.45
Bill
It’s the word look for what this joke. It’s not that good I want it? What are those things called Oh Gavel is like a flask.
25:39.98
Scott
Well, you got 20 of these things. Let’s let’s rattle some of them off.
25:45.92
Bill
Well what I’d like to do is start with ah a little personal tribute to Jerry Springer because I actually am a fan of Jerry Springer I mentioned on the show that I went to a Jerry Springer taping
25:52.32
Scott
Um, yeah, those of us that follow us on Twitter may have seen a still photo of that Jerry Springer with Bill and Amy in the background looking onward for the next chair to be thrown.
26:09.72
Bill
That’s right there we are going woo like our eyes are big. We’re having a great old time. So here’s how this happened and this was only this couldn’t have been more than eight years ago yeah this was really not that long ago. So I just got into this fascination of watching Jerry Springer because I was like I can’t tell I can never always tell when this is real and when it’s fake. So I’ve heard because I’ve just been fascinated with this show that maybe about 10% of it is fake where. They’re really not mad at each other but it’s an old wound and they’ve kind of dug at it to get the people who are on stage all riled up but usually it’s real so I just was always into watching is this real or is this fake is this real or is this fake. So Amy gets me for my birthday. She gets me dickens to go to the Goddam Jerry Springer shop the goddamn Jerry Springer show I’m so excited. So we’re like how do we do this so we we’re in New York city which you know we’re pretty familiar in New York City and we’re supposed to meet somewhere for the bus to the Jerry Springer show yeah we’re gonna go to the cher.
27:14.97
Scott
They bus you in you don’t just drive to the studio.
27:17.76
Bill
Show. It’s not in New York city it’s all the way in Stamford Connecticut I think I it’s in Connecticut maybe I got the the city wrong.
27:25.10
Scott
Um, wow but everybody has to drive to New York to catch the bus to get to the studio people aren’t just driving to the studio.
27:34.89
Bill
Right? You have to take the bus. It’s a secret. They’ll get a car I’m I’m sure you could drive there yourself, but from the city they had a shuttle now remember these tickets weren’t for sale. Yeah, nobody’s clamoring for.
27:37.99
Scott
Wow Oh that’s what I thought you were getting at oh hook it.
27:52.49
Bill
Jerry Springer tickets so I’m pretty sure they had to go to the city to get anybody you know they could who would be you know, enticed by free tickets.
27:55.46
Scott
Oh I thought you were like really this was a secretive clandestine thing where you hop in and they played blindfold you like you get to the springer show it all outbreaks loose.
28:13.50
Bill
You’ll tell nobody about this, you’ll tell nobody about what you’ve seen. You’ll tell nobody about the roads. We’ve traveled in this van.
28:21.21
Scott
It It make a cooler story if that was the case.
28:23.72
Bill
Well let me tell you we’re going to this bus. We are so excited we’re like there. It is the Jerry Bus stairs the jerry bots we see the jar but guess what we’re doing it like that. But there are a lot of other people that are like there’s that jar right? Buss there’s a we’re like oh oh, they’re really excited. They’re actually into this.
28:39.11
Scott
They’re serious. Yeah.
28:42.39
Bill
So the people that you see at Walmart at like four zero in the morning are also the people that love those free Jerry Springer tickets they are just so loud. They are. Wow.
28:51.96
Scott
I can see that Venn diagram just being a circle. Ah.
28:56.30
Bill
And you could tell that they all do each other like this was not their first rodeo. They’ve done this before they’ve met for these free tickets before so it was a ah long and colorful ride to Connecticut but we finally get there all right? It’s just a studio the middle of fucking nowhere and they sit us down in this big room and it’s very like.
28:59.64
Scott
Oh.
29:15.98
Bill
What are we here for they see this big room and they start to just just shovel you into this other room and they’re kind of looking at you and putting you in certain spots. You know So I guess if you’re really funny looking give you a good spot because you might get picked on. But.
29:29.62
Scott
Oh.
29:32.94
Bill
So they were doing that they were kind of putting us all in different spots And yeah, yeah, we got tucked away so I don’t know if that means like is it because the ugly people get picked on but the we looked like the classy people who they knew they wouldn’t have to ever you know stick a microphone deep down into the ah.
29:40.53
Scott
Ah, that sounds a good compliment.
29:52.26
Bill
Into the chair well to get me and my wife go and we got a question so they must have so they buses sits.
29:54.42
Scott
They didn’t think they they looked at Amy and they were like she’s not flashing the camera. This isn’t going to go anywhere is a back.
30:02.80
Bill
Ah, stick that way in the back. Ah so I remember they do the show and I remember the first one was like really good, really funny. The anger was there and it was like they were going at it. They were pissed and like even off camera they were like still going at it a little bit. And there’s people on the side stage that are kind of wooing you on and trying to get you work of and you know you you know they’re there watching this this springger show. Yeah, and then the next one comes out. They get to a fight and it’s not really selling very well like they’re trying to laugh and they’re they’re clearly one of the.
30:25.99
Scott
Yeah, ah the height man. Ah.
30:38.24
Bill
10% who aren’t really that mad at each other that I would just sort of ends I don’t even think that show ever got aired so we watched just it was like 1 full taping but 2 segments and they were like all right. That was fun. So they you know they kind of let us go you get a Jerry Springer T -shirt
30:44.47
Scott
Um, probably not.
30:50.86
Scott
Ah.
30:56.26
Bill
And then he’s hair and you make a right and we go in. We’re the same fucking big room that we read what we first got there so we don’t know what to do so we sit down but now there’s boxes of pizza and Sony goes next episode will start about an hour we’re like oh it’s a double. It’s a double ma night. We’re getting another show.
31:13.33
Scott
Ah, ah, wow.
31:15.41
Bill
It’s another show and we got to yeah we this time they put us at another spot. You know it’s.
31:21.17
Scott
It sounds like you’re held hostage. They keep you there with pizza in between just you’re not, You’re not that bus isn’t going anywhere in between shows you are hostage. You’re against your will.
31:30.61
Bill
Ah, it was a full day we you? yeah we were there a full day we were hostages we had. We had no way to get out I don’t even know where I don’t even know if ubers came out to where we were I mean we were completely out of.
31:38.95
Scott
Ah, ah, stranded in Sanford. Ah.
31:44.40
Scott
Wow wow.
31:48.30
Bill
Our minds go and we were completely out of our home base. We just were somewhere in Connecticut hope we get back alive.
31:59.31
Scott
Ah, isn’t that how one of the saw movies started.
32:01.74
Bill
Yeah, there was that’s the what with Jerry Springer so I I don’t know I got a soft spot for this trash tv but here’s here’s my list here here’s my list and we stutter.
32:08.90
Scott
Ah, oh shit.
32:19.24
Scott
I want to do a final thought to end this show. What have we learned today I have to think about it though I have to work on it. But I’ll work on it here.
32:23.66
Bill
That’s a killer That’s a great idea.
32:30.60
Bill
So looking to my list of 20 How many do you think you’re gonna get or or not get let me say it again. Let me say it again so looking at my list of 20 how many of these do you think you’re gonna know.
32:36.73
Scott
Um, I’ll probably only know, go ahead.
32:45.39
Scott
Um, out of 20 I’ll probably know less than 50% I’ll I’ll say I’ll probably know 7
32:49.44
Bill
I bet you’re going to go? Oh yeah I remember that so after I made this list I went over to Wikipedia and I looked up a list you know because there’s a list for everything a listicle a list to go for everything.
32:55.15
Scott
I hope.
33:11.19
Bill
So number one on the list is Jerry Springer obviously number 1 is Jerry Springer remember you put out that movie too hot to handle like there was an actual movie the Jerry Springer movie
33:21.64
Scott
Um, oh I remember they used to advertise it on the e channel during Stern show.
33:29.34
Bill
Well, there was too hot to handle. You’re right I remember wait. Ah ah wasn’t there. Another girl Oh is girls gone wild and like yeah and it was like too hot the uncensored episodes of the springer show but there was an actual springer movie where he acted as maybe himself as.
33:34.59
Scott
Girls gone wild.
33:47.30
Bill
The springer character in the movie am I completely making this up.
33:52.47
Scott
I Don’t remember this but I I’m not surprised I mean he was everywhere at one point.
34:02.29
Bill
Yeah here it is 9098 ring master.
34:08.55
Scott
Um, ring at least that’s kind of tongue in cheek he realizes what a circus he was running there.
34:19.60
Bill
Stars Jerry Springer Jamie Presley and a whole lot of people I’ve never seen.
34:23.64
Scott
But you Steve Wilk Coast was there his security guard number Steve got his whole own spinoff show I don’t want to jump ahead I’m sorry I’m sorry.
34:29.13
Bill
Oh don’t get ahead of me sir Jerry Springer stars as more or less himself the host of a raunchy controversial and popular Los Angeles talk show which features everyday people with problems who frequently vent their problems on the air. A new group of guests are flown in for 1 show who include white trailer trash from Sarasota Florida Connie whose current husband has cheated on her with her nymph maniac dage daughter angel for which Connie has gotten revenge by having a sex with angels fiance from the Detroit. Okay so they’re just going to basically make fun of their own show.
35:03.40
Scott
Sure but it wasn’t their show. This was a west coast show. He was an East Coast show he really mixed it up.
35:05.75
Bill
That’s what they’re doing here.
35:12.18
Bill
No so tricky all right? Well after him or even before him I used to watch Richard Bay no no no, he was a ah.
35:20.30
Scott
I remember Richard Bay is a british guy right? no.
35:29.19
Bill
Remember what my father looks like he looked a little like my father and like he would have he started out serious and then he got kind of trashy which is the story for a lot of these characters Jerry Springer too Jerry Springer started out serious like there is an interview with him in Ali North and they’re really talking about serious political things. But.
35:38.40
Scott
Okay.
35:49.19
Bill
You know everybody decided to ultimately go to trash Tv so it’s funny to see these people that were like we were gonna I was going to be a real journalist and now Jerry’s frigger well that’s the way went so Richard Bay just sort of went that route to.
36:05.18
Scott
Um I guess I guess I don’t remember that I guess I don’t know him then so that I can’t count that as one that I know.
36:05.81
Bill
You remember this next one. Oh go ahead. You have comments.
36:12.13
Bill
Nice all right, go look up some old trashy Richard Bay right out of New York city pretty sure it was out of New York city early ah trash Tv now right number 3 on the list I got heraldo.
36:20.85
Scott
Um, okay oh yeah, of course.
36:28.10
Bill
Everybody knows Araldo if that guy didn’t pick up the chair and smash heraldo in the face where would heraldo’s career. Be.
36:34.42
Scott
But he didn’t start off as a shock daytime guy either. He started off as like a real journalist but he ended up very much the same way. Yeah, he pissed off somebody was like a Klansman or something that like threw a chair at him I Thought so.
36:41.15
Bill
Until.
36:47.50
Bill
Yeah, exactly yeah and then everybody just went nuts. It was like the first riot on tv and I don’t remember it being live but they still aired. It. So that’s why it was cool because usually shit like that anything controversial used to get pulled right away so it was crazy to see something like that. Riverway to heralda was was was was was was not I was just make a fun by stuttering remember when heralda was going to open the the vault whose vault was that was.
37:11.75
Scott
All there is what I pay attention I was trying to look something up here. Okay.
37:26.20
Scott
Um, it was Al Capone’s vault.
37:27.12
Bill
Ohones vault and they blasted open and they make such a special deal out of this thing and they blated open I think it was like primetimetvspecial is like we’re going to open l l capone’s vault blast a mother fuck her helping and it’s god damn empty.
37:35.89
Scott
It was.
37:44.52
Bill
Like it could be more beautiful. What.
37:44.77
Scott
Ah, ah, the simpsons did a great riff on that they had like her all though on and they were going to open up the glove box in Bonnie and Clyde’s car and it like nothing bit roadmaps. Ah.
37:55.00
Bill
Ah, hundred. That’s just so beautiful. So poetic. Yeah, her all no he is good I like to roll down I don’t know where he is now haven’t seen him forever.
37:59.78
Scott
Ah, yeah, he was good. Yeah now he’s on Fox News right yeah he’s Fox News now
38:12.21
Bill
How about Jenny Jones
38:14.54
Scott
Now Don’t know her.
38:16.73
Bill
I Bet you you do remember there was a person who appeared on her show and they were so embarrassed they killed somebody and maybe killed themselves like there was a suicide. There was a whole death thing. You think I’d come to this show prepared.
38:27.75
Scott
Yeah, but not on the show. It was after the show it was because of the show but it is not like somebody like killed somebody on the show they came on. They were so embarrassed they were kind of blindsided and then they had.
38:35.44
Bill
But it was because of the content of.
38:47.44
Scott
Ah, gets that flight continued after the show.
38:56.97
Bill
On March Sixth amador was a guest amador emadure im a dear what a nice name I guess that’s a last name emade year was a guest on the episode of the Jenny Jones show titled revealing same sex crush. Well you can guess where it goes he didn’t like the the reveal.
39:11.48
Scott
M.
39:15.91
Bill
During the segment emador was encouraged by jones to share his fantasies about schmitdtz after which schmitdz was brought on stage according to the Washington post the 2 men exchanged an awkward embrace before the host dropped her bombshell I guess saying hey he’s got a crush on you in response to emmaur’s disclosure Schmitz laughed then stated that he was definitely heterosexual. Okay, so schmidz then kills amador.
39:38.45
Scott
Damn.
39:42.72
Bill
Shot him twice in the chest. Yeah, so they embarrassed the heterosexual guy on on the Jenny Jones show and he went and killed the guy you don’t know that story.
39:51.62
Scott
Am I I do remember hearing that I remember Jenny Jones though in her show ended shortly after this yeah I figured no no networks going to stand by that.
39:59.59
Bill
Yeah, yeah, it was like you’re done. Yeah, that was interesting here’s one I don’t remember a ton about but it was big. Dr Laura I remember her being on Dr Laura Schlesinger you know that name Stern used to pick on her a lot. Yeah.
40:16.10
Scott
You She was she? yeah but why do I know that name I don’t think I watched it.
40:24.37
Bill
Now she was just a big mouth I don’t know if she was religious or if she was leaning liberal or conservative I ignored her.
40:29.54
Scott
Yeah I have no no recollection of that one? Oh yeah I remember Lisa.

Bill
I Don’t know is he dead is Morey dead.
42:22.80
Scott
To think so but I might be mixing that up with Jerry but the recent news there I don’t think he’s still on the air.
42:24.57
Bill
Oh we’ve got to wait a minute. We got to find we can. We don’t try to post true news. But when it comes to but because the warri we got to go to Google.
42:39.39
Scott
Um, all right? Well we’re getting it right to the bottom of this.
42:53.10
Scott
I would just give you.
42:55.41
Bill
That’s it here. He is dead at 78 scratching his own ass meat to death I get I didn’t think you.
43:00.65
Scott

43:10.57
Bill
Now here it is 84 years old. He’s still alive Marie Pobis reflects on the life and career of Jerry sprager. So unless I let’s say dog of up to to do it I’m pretty sure he’s still alive.
43:20.68
Scott
That’s all I’m seeing what’s the suicide act. Ah. I tell you go Jerry.
43:30.81
Bill
Ah, Jerry we’re gonna make this deal with the devil together.
43:37.28
Scott
Ah, so Marri’s still not I don’t think he’s doing his show anymore. But up until recent time he’s still been telling people. You are not the father and then they run off the stage like a bunch of assholes up so good.
43:50.20
Bill
It’s great and when they’re unhappy. That’s my favorite when they’re like Nope it’s not me. It’s not me not the father that it’s like you are the father like oh shit.
43:53.26
Scott
Not me I remember there was a woman on there and that she was on the show like 12 times and she tried 12 different guys and none of them were the father I don’t know if we forgot the answer dirty ho.
44:05.16
Bill
Ah, ah God Damn it Oh no, that’s kind of sad. But what those fathers well man, they just you just see it their eyes. It just goes out the lights just go out like guess what you got to get a job down and be responsible.
44:21.13
Scott
Know not not for the air. But when when they were black. It was even better. Yeah, it goes without saying but God Damn like yeah.
44:23.20
Bill
No, are they always I thought they were.
44:34.23
Bill
Ah, so I gotta be careful with that. She it ma a fuck. Ah she speaking of negroes the Marsha Warfield show ah
44:40.17
Scott
Ah.
44:43.30
Scott
Are. Um, oh let’s try that segue again.
44:53.32
Bill
Ah.
44:56.72
Bill
Um, speaking of rare ones here’s one that I remember that all right the Marsha Warfield show do you know who that is yes yes, oh my god.
45:05.51
Scott
Ah, can I take a guess this was the woman that played the bailiff on night court yes yes, yes yes briefly yeah.
45:13.77
Bill
You remember she had a talk show I don’t remember watching it I Just remember the give it or what it I remember going I remember going why the fuck did they give the balet from nightquarter her own talk show.
45:26.25
Scott
Ah, raz.
45:29.64
Bill
Oh I got next number 10 and this list is in no order. This is just how I remembered it my favorite Morton Downey Junior Morton Downey
45:39.26
Scott
Um, yeah I didn’t know I didn’t know who he was a lot of these I only know because I remember seeing like the advertisement for this show but I never actually watched their show. You know.
45:48.39
Bill
Well as we’ve established in past episodes is Robert Downey Junior’s father
45:55.20
Scott
Morton Each Ah god.
45:58.11
Bill
Ah, and he was one of the first to sort of he was Howard Stern on Tv and he would get on Tv and he would just argue with people and he would just call people a whore and you’re a slotten he would just be like really mean and it was trash Tv for sure and you know he would just egg the guess on and. Whack packers would come onto the show and sit in the audience and then eventually get on air and it was really that same New York style trash Tv that Howard Stern became
46:28.58
Scott
So I remember he was a big thing on Fox I think we established that before Fox Network hired him was he the first guy to actually come on and kind of start. Ah the daytime trash show is this when he came on or was.
46:32.00
Bill
Yeah.
46:44.34
Scott
There are already someone out there that Fox hired him to kind of compete against.
46:48.82
Bill
In this case, this might be now that I’m thinking it this might have actually not been a daytime show this might have actually been a nighttime show so instead of watching you know either Jay Leno or it wasn’t even Jay Leno it was Carson or that’s it I think it was one of those things that you could watch.
47:08.35
Scott
Oh this was like a late night like a late late show. This wasn’t like sit this wasn’t like prime time this was after the news. Ok all right.
47:08.56
Bill
As an alternative to that because you got to remember back then I’m I’m so I’m starting to think so now yeah as we’re talking about it I don’t know right in tell me if I’m wrong if you remember Morton Downey Junior differently than I do. I remember he had a naughty mouth was very naughty I I don’t know how he didn’t get canceled I still think we ought to try to start a campaign to cancel Morton Downey Junior been dead for 102030 years but cancel.
47:36.70
Scott
Even though he’s dead all I p.
47:46.79
Bill
And D J Montel Williams you remember him he was cool I used to watch his show. He didn’t really get trashy and he was pretty bright like he could have good conversations with people.
47:52.20
Scott
Um, remember monto no no his guests were not as off the wall.
48:06.68
Bill
Makes me think now I didn’t put Dr Phil on the list I thought a doctor phil too much is like a doctor is like a judge is not a talk show person. But maybe Dr Phil is kind of like we’re Montel I said Montel Jordan um
48:19.51
Scott
Um, ah this is how we do with it. It.
48:28.39
Bill
Monto Williams didn’t Montel Williams kind of become eventually that other guy Dr. Phil
48:33.77
Scott
No vice versa I think Dr Phil became but Dr Phil picked up where Montel Williams left off Montels yeah Montel was definitely first then he stopped doing his show I think he had a health scare now he’s doing like catheter commercials on daytime a RP and
48:39.85
Bill
Oh do I have it backwards.
48:53.22
Scott
You know, um mortgage commercials.
48:55.98
Bill
Yeah I could have sworn that um Montel Drew but if Montel Williams this is how we do was somebody that Oprah found but maybe maybe that’s just a false memory. Dr. Phil definitely was now.
49:05.80
Scott
No Dr Phil is who Oprah found? yeah yeah I mean there may be a backstory but Oprah and Montel I don’t know about but I don’t believe so I think they kind of competed against each other for a while.
49:20.56
Bill
Oh did they? Oh it’s probably a celebrity death match on Youtube somewhere if you want to.
49:23.66
Scott
I I don’t know. That could be that could be.
49:32.93
Bill
Meredith Viera
49:33.38
Scott

49:35.87
Bill
Right? Sally Jesse Rafael right she was one of them too that was out at the same time as Richard Bay and Jenny Jones and she.
49:44.32
Scott
Can’t forget the red glasses.
49:49.59
Scott
Um, Phil Donahue I figured he was.
49:53.00
Bill
Phil Donny who was next to my list. Yeah, he retired before all of them. He was one of the first ones to kind of go this is getting a little trashy and like maybe not my scene I think because he didn’t he never got that down and dirty like it started to get a lot trashier and go off the rails.
50:01.57
Scott
Um, yeah.
50:08.47
Scott
Big time big time.
50:10.40
Bill
After Phil left.
50:14.36
Bill
See what I Phil has all that weight on his shoulders now he’s like I quit just wanted to retire did enough in showbiz and I took the entire what modesty of culture with me.
50:36.49
Bill
Took the entire ethics of Modesty ethics and Modesty with me I took the entire I took all of ethics with me. No I’m saying it. It’s a quote for me.
50:45.31
Scott
Um, is this a quote from him. Oh okay.
50:53.72
Bill
White so eloquent here’s Steve Harvey yeah I remember Steve Harvey at a talk show I didn’t watch it. Did you watch a talk show.
50:55.26
Scott
Ah.
50:59.98
Scott
Yeah I like him better as a game show host than I did a talk show. No but I don’t think anything could beat him as a game show host.
51:12.40
Bill
The only thing I know about him is he had a ultimatum written to where if you worked on his show. You weren’t on the make eye contact tacked with him I like that I like that I like that as a real dick power Boo I like that.
51:19.84
Scott
I Heard that.
51:28.60
Scott
That’s is a real dick move. Oh yeah, Wendy I hated Wendy Williams I was not a fan of Wendy Williams I didn’t like the the holler and back that the audience did I didn’t like.
51:30.18
Bill
The Wendy Williams show oh really
51:44.91
Scott
The whole how you doing thing I didn’t care for anything when you Williams did and when you Williams came on fox 29 here locally right after their morning show. So there’s times I’d like be home from work and it would just roll into Wendy Williams I’d be like oh my. I can’t find the remote control fast enough.
52:04.86
Bill
Yeah I didn’t know much about her. The trash tv had sort of cleaned up a bit by the time she got there I don’t know what she was I don’t know if she was trash Tv I don’t know but the.
52:14.28
Scott
Not so much I mean I think the thing that I think that people that were’re still keeping the trash Tv thing going were definitely maury and I don’t think and springer was still going. You’re right? but I don’t think when you Williams fell in their category.
52:26.19
Bill
Springer.
52:34.93
Bill
Well here’s the big one. The Oprah Winfrey show which I can tell you I never saw us not even 1 single episode of the Oprah Winfrey show the get. Ah.
52:46.11
Scott
You know all I can hear in my head right now right? Oprah Winfrey Negro woman from the south. Oh my god um I watched Oprah I’ve I’ve had um.
52:54.26
Bill
Ah, the good old days God Do it.
53:03.48
Scott
Girlfriends in the past whose mothers were obsessed with Oprah four o’clock every day Oprah be coming on so I watched a lot of Oprah the Oprah was like the hallmark of daytime tv it wasn’t trashy. It was you know feel good sappy lean too hard. The other way I think.
53:20.74
Bill
Was it too hard I mean as somebody who’s never seen it. She never struck me as anybody be annoyed by I know as a Howard Stern fan growing up. You know she was a every name in the book but she always seemed like an okay person to me.
53:38.18
Scott
I Just feel that there was a couple fabricated not fabricated stories but they would really push hard ah to get the sapiness into like milky emotions and I don’t know it was.
53:52.41
Scott
Talking to someone like you who I know is a big fan of Hallmark Television Oprah was like that kind of hallmark television I know you are you talk about him all the time you defend them every time I I talk shit on hallmark or lifetime it was more of a lifetime.

Scott
Television that was Oprah.
54:14.72
Bill
Yeah, wasn’t my style I wanted Richard Bay and Jenny Jones and I wanted topics that would cause people to go kill themselves.
54:23.14
Scott
You would not have been a fan of Oprah she gave way lot of free cars though.
54:35.33
Bill
Where’d she get the free cars from like that’s another thing. Everybody’s like Oprah she’s so big and powerful like she’s a god goddess. She’s a queen I’m like how she’s just she had a daytime talk show for a minute there and even today people. Think she’s amazing and she’s been off the air for what 20 years
54:51.18
Scott
