Pod Is My Copilot
PiMC: Episode 21 - Oh, Is Someone Licking Someone's Butt?
It's a podcast summit with Michael from qCastCT.com and Daniel from Callbox 7...in my living room! We talk about all sorts of things on Daniels fancy schmancy mixing board and microphone. Of course that doesn't stop Taylor from talking REALLY CLOSE TO THE MICROPHONE and very very far away....Other than that, the sound quality is AWESOME! It's very NPR...on your iPod....wooden spoons wooden spoons... First, Daniel and I realize we have a past....Chili's.....an update on the Work Passion Party....Daniel talks about Callbox 7, Michael TRIES to talk about qCast CT (though he won't give up the new name (though we all know now the new CT is for Connections), but Taylor keeps interrupting him, we talk about getting together with ANOTHER Florida podcast, Bob Lassiter,and a hidden talk radio shame that Taylor shares with the group. Oh, and the pugs decide to engage in pug on pug action in the middle of the room, while the podcasters look on in horror.

[music] You're listening to Pot as My Copilot with Taylor the Latte Boy, Taffy Carlisle Huffington, and Rodin. [music] Hi, this is Taylor the Latte Boy, and welcome to episode 21 of Pot as My Copilot. I am joined by not one but two guest co-hosts this evening, both of which have podcasts of their own. This is the first in Pot as My Copilot history. I had mentioned earlier in the week that I was going to be having Michael from Cucass Connecticut on, say hello Michael. Hello. And at the last minute, as of last night, we started talking to another podcaster who lives very close to me and decided that we would come and work with him as well. Also, from call box seven, please welcome Daniel Brewer. Hi. Hi, how are you? And actually tell the whole story, which is I didn't want you to make Michael drive all the way over here to record only to find out later. Oh, we had technical difficulties. [laughter] Yeah, that would have kind of sucked. So we are actually, you may notice that there's some difference in the... I sound fabulous. Quality of the podcast tonight, and that would be because we are using all of Daniel's equipment. Daniel's very cool equipment. We are sitting in my living room, and there are wires and mixers and everywhere. All sorts of neat stuff. And I'm going to have to work some extra on-call shifts I can tell already because... It's the best in LBL technology. LBL? Little blinking lights. Oh, okay. Yes, I noticed that when I talk, the little blinking lights go up and down. Yeah, they do. Yeah. You know, and I also think there's episode 21, so you're now officially legal. I was going to make that joke. I was thinking about that the other day, and you beat me to it. Well, you know, that's my job. Well, that is true. And we just established that I actually, apparently, was at your 21st birthday. Yeah, they had a history first. Yeah, we do. I was here for the unveiling. And Taffy, no, I have not slept with him because I'm sure that will be asked of me as soon as, did you have sex with him? No. Do we know that for sure? Because I have a pretty sorted history. You both were 21. Don't give her ammunition because then she'll be like, I know you slept with him. I know you did. So what exactly happened on this 21st birthday? I was so long ago. It was not that long ago. It was 14 years ago this December, and my birthday was on a Sunday, but Sunday was always the 18 and up for tracks. For tracks, thank you. And so it is a gay bar. It's a former gay bar. That's true. Down in Ebor City. And back then, Ebor City was scary. I mean, a track was really like it down there. It's not like it is today. So a bunch of my friends, including the guy that I was dating at the time, his name was Jamie, stood outside of tracks with me until midnight, so that on a Saturday night, so that way I could get in right at my 21st birthday. And Daniel. Yeah, it's a classy story. And Daniel and some other friends of ours were already inside the bar because they had already turned 21, and they all had drinks waiting for me. And I got shit-faced. In fact, so shit-faced that I threw up in tracks. Sweet. Yeah, I remember I was in the bar at the end, the bleacher bar where they had the bleacher set up. Oh, it would be Chris's bar. Is that what that's called? Well, I mean, the bartender is in there. It's actually my best friend still to this day. That's Chris Myers that was a bartender. The guy that had the mustache? Oh, okay. And he made fun of me the next night, so okay. Yeah. Just side note. He and his partner just celebrated their 26th anniversary. Oh, well, congratulations, guys. I had been drinking, drinking, drinking. I remember I was drinking raspberry lifesavers, which I have no idea what's in them, but they were really good. And I had one too many. And I remember sitting on the bleacher bar, sitting on the bleachers by the bar, thinking to myself, I'm going to be sick. Now I'm at a control level for the drunk. And Jamie, my boyfriend at the time, came up behind me and he was sitting on the bleacher behind me and was rubbing my shoulders. And he was saying, are you okay? And I'm like, I just don't feel well. I don't feel well. I feel like I'm going to be sick. And he said, well, then go to the bathroom. And I said, I don't feel like I could make it to the bathroom. It would just not be good. Meanwhile, this guy comes up to him and sits down next to him and is asking, is he okay? And Jamie says, yeah, he's fine. He's okay. And he starts striking up a conversation with Jamie and then proceeds to try and make out with Jamie while Jamie is rubbing my shoulders. Because I can't see what's going on because I've got my head in my head. Yeah. So then they had three TV screens above the bar. And I will never get the strange love by Depeche Mode was on. So and I looked up at the three Depeche Mode screens and three screens turned into nine. And I knew, OK, this is it. It's going to be a problem. And by the grace of God, the crowds parted. And there was a trash can next to the bar. And I knew I could make it to the trash can. So I ran over to the trash can and puked. That's not called the grace of God. That's called seeing someone about the hurl and getting the hell out of the way. No, but it was one of these. And I recognize that. You know, I think that's not even a gay bar thing. That's an any bar thing. Yeah, probably. So but I just remember getting like vile eel and then driving home in Jamie's brand new car that he had just bought and puking into a Wendy's cup and pouring it out into the over the hyper-fanker bridge. Oh, that's a lovely that. Yeah, that is a lovely visual. And he was being very productive and saying, you know, it'll be OK. It'll be OK. But then also adding in every once in a while, I will kill you if you puke in this car. I don't blame him. So yeah. So I'm confused about one part of the story. You said that Daniel and his friends were waiting there with drinks in their hands for you. So Daniel, did you know him before this? Wow. No, yes. Yes, well, we both went to the USF gay coalition, which is at USF. So there was a lot of people there. So I mean, we knew we were acquaintances, but we weren't. Yeah, I mean, there were some people that knew me a little bit better and they and we had known each other from the meetings and it was just we're coming in. And it'll be in about 20 minutes. Everybody get a drink party for us. So and in his, you know, in my defense, you know, we were young and cruel. And when you when you meet somebody named Latte, boy, back when lattes weren't cool. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we were just kind of like, it was Latte. Yeah, Latte. You make it gayer than that. Yeah, it makes me sound like I was a dry queen. Was? Shut up. Okay. So, okay, great. Well, thank you for that little bit of history. I, with the headphones, I totally feel like I'm on NPR. We were all talking and we were making. Um, even Archer didn't let me wear headphones. I know. It's very, it's very the delicious dish. And if it was NPR, though, it would be far less interesting. So we'd have to, you know, just be really. They would not be talking about spewing it in a bar. We'd have to talk about the history of wooden spoons. The wooden spoon originally came from Norway. Yeah. Yeah, good times, good times. Yeah, I totally need one of these mixer things because this is awesome. You know, and I love the setup, but we're just so totally defeat my podcasting on a budget mantra. Well, but you only have to buy the stuff once. Actually, that. There you go. There is. Then I could go back to being on the budget. There's there's less than $400 for the equipment sitting here. So, I mean, it's not. I don't know if Mr. B would let me spend that much money. Mr. B's not here. And I have the credit card. We'll be cutting this early because we need to go shopping. We'll see y'all later. Though actually, Michael and I did go shopping today. We did. Yes, I've had quite the lovely tour of St. Petersburg. And by tour of St. Petersburg, he means he's been to the comic book store with me. And Chili's. And Chili's. And Tropical Smoothie. Where we, what kind of smoothie did you get? I got the peanut butter cup with Splenda. Okay. And I got the peaches and silk, which is what Taffy's oldest daughter usually is. Silk. Why is it called silk? It'd be, I guess, because it's smooth. I don't know. But I guess all of them are, which I was going to say. That's the whole name of the store. It's a smoothie. So, I don't know. It'd be kind of worried about what exactly they're putting into something called silk that you're drinking. It's probably because it's made with soy milk. No, there's no milk in it. It was, it's peaches, strawberries, and I think it's peaches, strawberries, and bananas. It's like a brand of soy milk and silk. Yeah, it's silk, okay. Yeah. I don't know about such things. That's far too healthy for me to eat. Oh, yeah. And that was when the poor waitress came up to us today at Chili's and said, "Do you guys want a salad for $1.59?" We both looked at her and said, "No, that would be healthy and that's not going to work." He burned her finger on a skillet earlier and then proceeded to drop all of Taylor's. What were they? Chicken crispers. Chicken crispers all over the floor. Except for one, Lee. And then she brought me back to honking big. Large. They were hung. Hung chicken crispers. You know, I mean, the same piece. I'm surprised she didn't invoke the three second rule when she dropped on the site. Is that three seconds? Nope, three seconds. I didn't even notice because one of the listeners of our podcast was there. Her name is Lila. Hello, Lila, if you're listening. I know she at least goes to the MySpace page. She's one of our MySpace friends. And she was talking to me and while she was talking to me, was when our waitress brought out her food and... And I was facing the waitress. Yeah. And I kind of noticed that Michael was kind of looking off to the side and saying like, OK, what's going on here? It was also in conjunction with the whole cute busboy thing. Because in the booth behind us, there was a cute busboy busing the table. And he was bent over, like wiping the table or what have you. And she was coming towards him with the chicken crispers and everything on her tray. And my fantasy vision of the scenario was that, you know, she was so captivated by the busboys bent over, ass sticking in her face that she just rammed into him and, you know, dropped everything. You know, if it was a porno movie, that's exactly what would have happened. So she would have dropped the chicken fingers while being distracted by the chicken's ass. Correct. Ah, correct. Where in fact, I think it was just because she was clumsy. Well, there you go. And she had some weird finger condom on. She did. Where's she blue? Yeah, it was this blue. It looked like a rubber for her finger. It was weird. Then I'm thinking, why don't you pick up my chicken crispers with that? Did you put on your finger like if you're in the banking industry, and you have to like, you know, go through all the money? So one of those rubber fingertips. Yeah. Which is ridged for her pleasure. Yes. Speaking of ribbed for her pleasure, I went to a passion party last night. Oh, that's right. You sent me an email about this, and you said you're going to explain it to me today. I cannot wait, and I'm sure Daniel is on the book in the evening. I don't think, you know, we talked about this during episode 20, which hasn't come out yet. So as of this recording, it is the way the best way to describe it. It is Tupperware for your vagina. And it was a work function of all things. So there was a bunch of people there from work. Um, it was, I've been to some parties similar to that, like party lights and stuff like that, where you go and they, you know, they have the presentation where they talk about how, you know, when this, you can use this and, you know, your psalcedip or you, this, this scent goes really well with this kind of wine or that sort of thing. This woman pretty much said, yeah, this goes on the guy's cock. And this is what, you know, and this is all straight couples and me. Oh, one of these things is like the other. And it's a lot of like, you know, and this is called the pussy pleaser. And this is the work function. This is, well, it's not, it's not a sanction to work function. It was, but it was all work with all your coworkers. So, and the thing that stinks about it is that not a lot of people came. So there was only about seven of us there, which then it just kind of almost gets, it almost gets like a, it almost gets like creepy at that point when there's only seven people versus, you know, are you out at work? Oh God, yeah. Oh, please, please. Yeah, I have to be. So, I don't have a choice. Well, that's obvious to us. Yeah, I wasn't sure. You know, when I opened the door. Hello. Yeah, that, you know, Michael, it's so nice to meet you. Did you buy anything? Uh, I did buy something, but I didn't buy anything. God, Taffy's going to be listening to this going. What? But, um, what did you buy for her? No, no, it's actually it's something for every year. The program that I'm in the children's program, we have a holiday party and we have like the white elephant where you get something. So, I got something, I got something. I didn't get anything like weird talkering sort of stuff. Stop the story right now. You bought sex toys for a children's party? Well, you're not even a chef now. It's the children's. From a children's party. It's the children's program, but all of the children's counselors. And it's not like it's like a dirty thing. It was just one of those silly, like, you know, those like cheesy games that they sell at Spencer gifts that are like, you know, you know, rub your partner's shoulders, that sort of thing. It's a set of dice. It's erotic dice. So one of the dice has verbs and one of the dice has nouns, but like the most dirty thing on the thing on the dice would be the word boobs. What are the verbs? Yeah, I suck maybe one of them. Suck boobs. I know rub. Rub boobs. Fond, not fond, because then that sounds again like I'm taking him to a children's party. Suck boobs is fine then. Suck boobs. But no, I have a different question actually. I had the dice in the other room. I can go get that. We'll start you for a second here. You went to this party where you can buy all these kind of fun things. You knew that Daniel and I were coming over today. Did we get a hostess gift as we walked in the door? No. I've been sitting here sweating my ass off setting stuff up. I didn't even get offered a beverage until like after until that's not true. I offered you a beverage until after 10 minutes. Well, but I you know, you could have opened the door greeted us with some little party toy, but no, we got nothing. After our long drive down here, you'll get something later, I guess. Cue the porn music. Check it out, you have to give me that porno music. I don't have to do anything. I would like you promised me you would get me the porno music. Why? Well, I promise you must have been in a week moment. You don't promise people anything? I've tried not to. Oh, okay. I can rarely live up to them. All right. Well, there you go. That's good to know. I have to do the porn music. I gave it to Archer this week. Why not? Yeah, every time another podcaster plays my porn music, you know, it's a little. And Angel gets a win. And Angel gets a while. And Angel gets his dirty dice, apparently. Oh, my. I was going to say that Archer kept playing that porn music. And you could already establish the fact that he was the only one that had headphones on that episode. So it was just like you and Tim just kept talking while this porn music going. And Archer drunk off his zaff is ever like, oh, he loves you. It was fabulous. I'm sorry, Archer. Love you. So how was your ride down? I mean, we heard the Archer and Tim show and we heard how far you got in as far as Washington. And then we heard you in a little fatty cast and heard you for about. Yeah, thank you. You don't have to say it. And I was not eating gravy and fries the whole time despite what Big Fatty says. So we don't mean to turn it on. And I also talked about the drive to on my show. Yeah, I remember because I talked about the family of Guy Samos took out on the bridge. Oh, that's right. You did talk about that stuff. OK, well, I can cross that off my list of things to talk about that, I guess. It was fine. I mean, you know, once I hit once I left South Carolina and, you know, got into Florida, I mean, it was just, you know, long and boring. I just wanted to get here. It even got to the point where I didn't even stop for lunch because I was just like, I'm only three hours away. I can make it. I can make it. Yeah, it's always like that when you take a road trip leaving Florida. It's just like, when am I going to get out of Florida? And it's just like, God, you know, when I crossed the border, I was like, you know, calling Kevin, OK, I'm in Florida. Yeah, only three more hours to go. Yeah, that's the worst. Yeah. Because it just feels like you're never going to get out. Now, did you just take 95 down to four and then across or? Yes. OK. That's what the GPS told me to do. And I'm listening to my GPS. OK, I don't have a GPS. I'm directly challenged. I have a satellite radio, though. I know I saw that in your car. Everyone can now go to maps.google.com and follow along. Yes. Yeah, he took 95 to four. Are you saying we're boring? No. OK. The wooden spoon was originally created. [LAUGHTER] OK. Well, what else is on your little list there, Taylor? Well, I wanted to give both of you an opportunity to talk about your podcasts, just because, I mean, some of you-- I talk about QKs. Daniel should talk about his first, since he's changing his format and all kinds of fun stuff. OK. It's callbox7.com. There you go. There you go. There's nobody. No, it's-- It's a co-host now. Yeah, I have a co-host now. I have the lovely and talented Will Ratic who's joining me now as a co-host, from San Francisco. So it just got to the point where I couldn't do a single person show. There's just too much time involved in any-- And you did really lengthy-- I mean, you still do lengthy shows, but I mean, you know-- Well, you know-- Those were usually over an hour. Yeah, and I've talked to-- I mean, Archer has told me before, you know, he's like, you know, I don't script anything, and I just-- But the thing is, Archer's doing a personal journal. I had made the decision to do a show focused on politics. And you can't just throw stuff out there. I mean, you have to have research behind it. You know, I don't make stuff up. So I had-- So it was a lot of research and then a lot of writing to keep it from just being me babbling. And some stuff changed at work, and I just couldn't do that anymore. So it's just easier to have a co-host, because that way then you can just talk about things. So our first co-hosting episode just went out, and it was all right. It'll get better. But yeah. Well, you just have to get to where you work. You know, you find your niches with each other. Yeah, it's weird, because like, you know, I just kind of pegged as the politics guy, you know, which I mean, it's not like it's the only thing in life I ever talk about. But you know, because I do a political podcast, everyone else is just like, "Oh, well, Daniel's on the show, so we know we have to talk about politics." So-- Oh, yeah, no, we decided we weren't talking about politics. That's fine today, because I have known nothing about politics, so-- That's fine. --follow it much, either. I don't. That's why I don't do a politics podcast. Yeah. We actually did-- we dipped a toe into politics with our last episode, but it was very-- And how was the water? It was taffy with the dipped or toe in, so I just got my mouth shut for-- I think for the most part, so-- Just hard to believe. No, well, like, she'd let me get a word in edgewise, so-- [LAUGHTER] But no, it-- what was the word? The word would be-- What was your safe word? [LAUGHTER] Yellow. Yellow. The safe word is always yellow. It's happy. It has to be. So-- Money, you did not choose the yellow microphone. Yeah, no, you chose the orange. Because orange is my favorite color. But there is a yellow one. I know. But Taffy, we're going to have the yellow one. OK. But she's not here. I've read. And Daniel has black. Yeah. Going back to you. [LAUGHTER] Like my heart. Wait, I have to-- Going back to you. I'm sorry, yes, go ahead, Daniel. Like my heart. Oh, I was going to do my little thing on that. Let's see. Sound effect. Like my heart. Heart, black, black, unforgiving, just like my heart. That's exactly what it is. Yeah, Kevin, can I have one of these? Yeah. Yeah, Taffy, we're going to need to do some shopping. Going back to your beginning story about drinks at Trax, I will happily provide you with the recipe for Raspberry Life Day when you can post it in your show notes. You know it? Yes, I do. I worked for Bartender's three years, so. Yes. Here's the little trick. Here's the little trick. OK, anytime you hear a drink that might be red, Raspberry, whatever, you know immediately that it's going to start with Southern Carfront and Schombord, because those are your base for red fruity cocktails. OK. Anything that's green, you're going to start with Midori and coconut rum, or a Midori and vodka, one of those two, because that's your green base. So as a bartender, the trick is, is when people walk up to you and go, yeah, I'd like to get a green Scooby-Doo, and you've never heard of that before whatsoever. So you just know that, well, I'm going to start with Midori and vodka and put some juices in it. And then I'm going to give it to them. And if they complain about it, you go, well, that's how we make them here. OK. That's good. But nine times out of 10, they go, this is the best green Scooby-Doo I've ever had. So what you putting it? Oh, this and that. Yeah. It's the house recipe. And then they always come back to you for their green Scooby-Doo's. So-- Is there a room you have to remember what you did? No, you don't. Is there a room? You always have the advantage, because they're drunk and you're not. Yeah. Is there really a drink called a green Scooby-Doo? I'm sure they're-- I wouldn't say that's the thing. In the world of drinks, there is everything. So doesn't matter. You just put-- you can take your dice. I'm sure that there's a drink out there called Fondleboobs or something. The boob Fondor. So is that all you bought with a dice? Yeah. That's the only thing that I bought. That's a shame. Not well, you know. Did they give you a catalog? No, because everything-- and it was everything that she had was out. It was like-- there was like-- Were there models? There was models on the boxes, which said there was lots of vagina looking at me the whole time, and it was just-- it was wrong. I've been to some of those parties back in the day. You know, I guess when they were called like naughty-90 parties. I think this was due not to start a Jack and Jill parties or whatever. And occasionally the lingerie would come with models. Oh. Well, there was no lingerie at this. Oh, OK. There wasn't. Back in the day. Back in the day. There was-- Back in the day. I'd walk into the floor here and head straight for the avocado green refrigerator. Well, setting across the shed, carpeting. Throwing my keys in the brandy sifter on the wall. Yes. Picking little nibblets out of the fondue pot. Oh, all right, fine. Good time. He's got my needs. Actually, I think I'm older than you. Do you? Yeah, I'm 40. You're not older than I am. OK. Michael's the oldest in the room. [LAUGHING] I don't understand. Michael needs a walker. I'm like, I don't think it's a walker. Wherever I go lately. I'm not the oldest podcaster out there, though. We've established that. Who was the oldest podcaster? Oh, there are a couple big fatties older than I am. He's in his 50s, isn't he? I believe he just turned 15. Good God, you say that like it's such a-- Oh, my God, he's in his 50s. No. He possibly has the strength to podcast when he's in his 50s. I'm going through and listening to all of the daily purges as far as back as I can go. I am insane. I am insane. And I'm trying to actually pace myself, because I found myself listening to five or six in a day. And I'm not saying it's insane, because it's a bad show or anything, it's not. But I can't imagine devoting that much time to any show. No, it's over 100 episodes. But it's not like I'm just sitting in the dark, listening, like, feeling close and fatal attraction, flicking the light on and off. What do we meant to that? Well, actually-- You just have your word. Actually, you don't. The only one who could tell you to do this would be the dogs and they're not talking. But actually, the dogs aren't talking, but I'm the only one that has a view of them right now, and they're doing some really-- Do the porn music. Chick-a-bow, chick-a-bow. Are they? Is somebody licking somebody's butt? Yes. OK. And we have a title for episode 21. Is someone licking someone's butt? Episode 21 of "Pod as my copot." Yes. Or as Falmonke say, "Pod as my cop piece." Copies. You know there aren't enough cop pieces in the world these days? The last one that I believe I saw was on George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell and Batman and Robin. You would be incorrect. The last one you saw would have been when George Bush landed on the aircraft carrier and came out with that enormous cod piece on. That was a mission accomplished thing. I tried not to look at that. That had me general. You're talking political thing. No, no, no, that is not politics. That is fashion. Can the two really meet the question? I don't. Have you seen Condoleezza Rice? But I'm bummed. Thank you. So what else? T. I totally forgot what I was going to talk about. Oh, wait a minute. We talked about Daniel's podcast. Yeah, let's talk about yours. Are you done talking about yours, Daniel? Yeah, mine's actually-- I have one question for you that is quasi-political. OK. And that would give you a quasi-answer. Oh, there you go. You are a part of-- I know that you said this multiple times on your podcast that you are part of the Progressive Podcast Network. Yes, progressivepodcastnetwork.org. OK, so you got an plug, too. Is that a democratic or-- is there a difference between progressive party and democratic party or is there-- Yes, I mean, now I'm getting into-- Yeah, and that's just a recurring theme on my show, which is I don't subscribe to the whole-- you are a party person 100%. Anyone who 100% believes with a Republican party or 100% believes with a Democratic party and every single thing that they do is right and everything that the other party does is wrong is just to complete more on. Progressiveism is just more of a political ideal-- ideology, I guess. So it's a political ideology. It has nothing. There are some Republicans who have fiscally progressive stances. OK. So it's kind of like most progressives are going to act. You pick the best of what you like from-- I go solely based on the issues. I mean, I pay attention to what their stances are, and I have voted for Republicans before. I'll do it again, but right now, the Democrats are not doing that great. OK. Well, there you go. And that concludes the NFR political. Yeah, I'll show you. Because I can see-- Can I come back now? I can see Michael fading away to the distance. At the neighborhood, you're very gay neighborhood apparently. Yes, I have lots of gay neighbors. I have bears that like cross the street from me. This whole area is really gay, though. Yeah, well, I don't want to say exactly where I live, but it's a pretty gay part of St. Pete. I'm a little worried, though, about the people next door. What? I have a very nice house with a very nice fence. It's very tasteful. Their car is parked on the front lawn. That's not very gay. Well, but the parking here is kind of a nightmare. Oh, it's a nice car. And they also have-- it is a nice car. The license plate numbers. Now, there's not very much parking. Parking is kind of a problem on the street sometimes. And they have a lot of cars in their backyard. And that's all I should probably say on that subject to take it. So not like junkers or anything. Are they expensive cars in the backyard? I know of at least one that's pretty expensive. Nice. Are they on blocks? No, they're not on blocks. They're not on blocks. And they do occasionally drive them. And I see them driving up and down. And sometimes one of my neighbors also has-- They have one of those fun horns. [HORN SOUNDING] [HORN SOUNDING] One or the other. Yes, the General Lee lives next door to me in my house. Look, it's Bo and Luke coming out of the house over there. Does that make me daisy? God help. Well, now it's a gay neighborhood. So Bo and Luke are wearing the daisy dukes. Since we've already established that you're 21st birthday, we had a million years ago that would make you more of an Uncle Jesse. A kooter? Wasn't our kooter on Duke's house? There's a kooter, which, by the way, slipping into apologies, kooter went on to be a senator in real life. But anyway, what's his name? Sonny Bono. Well, Sonny Bono-- Is Sonny Bono? Lovebo guy. Fred Grandie? Is that his name? Fred Grandie, who was-- Go for it. Go for it. Thank you. I wanted to call him Bobcat. I knew that wasn't his name. Bono, what's his word? This is a visual thing, but my favorite thing in the lovebo was Isaac's little opening credits from Isaac when he shot the little shooter McGavin's at you. He was really good on celebrity fit club. Well, there you go. Good times, good times. Yeah, Ted Lang was on celebrity fit club. And I don't watch reality television. I have a question about-- So you don't watch "So You Think You Can Dance?" No. Get out of my house. OK. Bye. Bye. I have a question about Qcast Connecticut. Yes. Oh, yeah, because we still have to talk about your show. Well, that was my question. Is your damn contest over? The contest is over. The contest was over July 31st, which I believe we announced the last episode. No, I know, but I'm saying, have you-- last episode you and Kevin were going to go through all of the things. And we did that. And you were going to-- Have you picked a winner? That this morning, actually. And you picked your winner? Did I win? Did we talk about it? Did I win? Now, is that fair to ask me? I know. I'm sorry. Something happened to Michael. Something happened to Michael's microphone. And now, if you suddenly can't hear me anymore, I don't know. Now-- Wait, so I can turn people's microphones off with one of those? Yeah. Tappy, again. Yeah, you need-- Yeah. Oh, I know. Somewhat. Anyway, are you going to let me-- You're going to be like this? Again, I'll ask the question. Oh, yeah. Did I win? Daniel, do you need to candle that badly? Yeah, well, I don't know. No. Although, they are really nice candles. They are beautiful candles on my phone. Soy candles. Soy candles by Thebes. Even as we speak. Who may be having a Soy candles by Thebes contest on Potice Michael Pilate. Are you? Yes. That would be wonderful. The candles are great, yeah. But, yes, Danny, you did submit some suggestions. I did. As did Taylor, so I don't think I'm very fair to discuss that now with both of you sitting here and as possible contenders to the prize. Which means he told me I won before Daniel came in. Oh, that's so wrong. He tried to get it out of me, too, and I wouldn't tell him. That is so wrong. So no. Now, actually, the I submitted one, and I'm pretty sure that other people would have submitted it before. Actually, I can't tell you that no one did. Really? The only one who submitted your particular suggestions. Really? Really? That surprises me. It's true. Well, now I want to know what he's submitted. I know. Well, it sucks to be you, don't it? Well, this episode is not going to come out for, like, what? A month? Because you've got-- Every time I sit down, it's just going to be like, well, that was on episode 900 that we-- Yeah, we still have to post episode 20, right? I know. I was in the process of editing episode 20 when Michael got here. Because I'm going to be on call this week all week, so it's going to be difficult to tape something that we probably will have. So you're stockpiling. I'm stockpiling a little bit, yeah. So when do you anticipate this episode? This will probably be out in about a week. A week? A week, I know. Everything we're talking about will be old by then. Yeah, I know. Like, what? I don't know. Raspberry lifesaver. The recipe of the Raspberry lifesaver. The lifesaver could dogs licking each other. The dogs lick each other while the tower's on blocks next door. It's pug rim job central around here. They're doing it again, you're right. And now they've moved on from the ass region to the Copic region. It's just highly disturbing. Let me guess, Rocco is doing it to Otis. I can't see from where I am. No, it looks like it's the other way around. Seeing as how I've only met your dogs for five minutes, I don't actually know the difference between them. There's some looking going on. Yeah. Anyway, check about, check about, check about, check about. I'm disgusted. So back to me, if that's what we were talking about. Yes, you've tried talking about Cukask and I'd get like 19 times, so. So do you want to just edit that whole thing out? And then we'll just start again. And you can talk about your show properly without me trying to like-- Oh, no, I don't care. No, I wouldn't edit a thing. That's fun this way. OK. Now I'm getting dirty looks. From who? You. No, you're not. You'll know when you're getting a dirty look. So yes, anyway, yes, Cukask Connecticut, which is located at qcastct.com, soon to be renamed. And as I said, we just decided this morning what the new name will be. So it will no longer be qcastct. No, it'll still be qcastct.com, the phone number. Well, that was the whole point of the contest that I didn't want to change anything. But you just got done saying you're going to change everything. No, he's changing what CT stands for. Oh, OK, well, I have to change it. But I didn't know if you were going to extend the-- OK, all right. It's on the what? No, I'm waiting to hear what you're saying. No, extend it from qcastct to qcastct, whatever.com. OK. No, it'll remain qcastct.com. The phone number will remain the same. The URL will remain the same. And I just have to redo the name and the artwork. OK. Because that was the whole point of the contest, because I was basically a lazy fuck and didn't want to do all that extra work. And you also have digitalwheatloaf.com. That's right. I do have digitalwheatloaf.com. Actually, right now, Kevin-- Oh, shit, yeah, I've got digitalwheat. Kevin's posting to it more than I am, only because he's got a little bit more time. Well, maybe if you weren't running around podcasting with everyone, you'd have time to post your damn blog. Exactly. I'm just a media whore, but you know, that's my job. It's the tour of podcasters. I know. Podcasters, tour of homes. I was going to say. I was going to share the Hollywood Star at home, yeah. Being hosted by podcaster to podcaster to podcaster. Renting myself out. Renting on well, OK. Well, you've been to all these podcasters, Tom. Do any of them have white walls? Because I noticed the pictures from Archie the other day. He had painted walls. And of course, Taylor has lovely painted walls here. I have to say, I hate white walls. So I just want to make sure that all of them. The other home I was at was Larry Vaters. And no, his walls weren't white either. There you go. What color were his walls? Various, depending on the room, just like you. OK. The room that you taped in. What color were the walls? No, we taped at the coal mine studios. So it was not in his home. Oh, it's their place of employment. Oh, OK. Well, in the room, I believe those walls were a pale blue. A pale blue. A robin's egg blue. What color room do you tape in? White. You do tape in white, don't you? I'm actually in the process of rebuilding the back office. So I'm shoved into a guest bedroom right now, kind of temporary. And we have not gotten around to painting that room. So, yes, it's the hideous white in that room. So then you say something like, eggshell. No, it's heterosexual, glossy. I can't stand it white. OK. Well, it's better than recording in the bathroom. Although the acoustics are probably good, right? I'm recording in the toilet. Oh, come on. Now you can do it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. OK. Yeah, you can do that at toilet paper. We've got a toilet paper here. You've got another roll? You're listening to-- Hello? What is my girlfriend? Oh, God. Yeah. Testing 1, 2, 3. Did you do that with your regular voice, or did he-- That was my regular voice. I'm a man of many voices. I guess. OK. Oh, the broadcast, not his own. I don't do the one anybody else. I don't do them on my own podcast. In a world where we didn't create. We're a man once to visit every podcasting home we can and find out what color walls they have. Are there others in Florida that I still need to hit? File monkeys, right? File monkeys, hopefully we are going to do something with Falmonkeys soon, including you guys. We being who? We being Taffy and myself and you and Mr. B. Really? Yeah. It's the first time hearing about it. Well, you haven't listened to Falmonkeys latest episode because they talked about it on their show today. Is Daniel included? None of us, I wasn't even invited. Daniel can come to-- well, Ricky would be the host of it. So I'm assuming that it's got all the cool toys. Because Danny's used to-- Danny's not Danny. Ricky's used to big groups, so-- Oh, really? Oh, there you go. He can handle it. Because there's at least two on his show. If it was just him and her, his partner. And then there would be you. I'm inviting all these people to your house, right? Yeah, that's OK. So that's what? Seven? Yeah, that could be-- that episode, whatever show it would be on, it would be episode, whatever. Clusterfuck. Because-- Yeah, but Daniel has a co-host now, though, too, is but even though he wouldn't be in the room-- But he wouldn't be in the room. Because he would be in San Francisco. He would be in San Francisco. He's in San Francisco. I think a podcast with eight voices would be Total Mayhem. It would be Mayhem. If one of those voices was taffys. So really, then you have to add on two or three voices on top of the other seven. So we'll have to come up with something. We'll have to do something. You work on that and let Daniel and myself know. I will, and Phil Monkey's actually sent a bulletin out on their MySpace page talking about if they were to throw some sort of listener party in the area would people come. So I would go to that. I sent them an email saying I would go to that. Would it be in Lakeland? It would probably be in Lakeland, yes. The cultural hub of Florida. I guess. I remember driving by it to get here. We know kind of like how they-- In Oakland and Polk County? Yeah. There's our co-barrel there. See, I was actually born in Raisin Plant City, which is between Tampa and Lakeland. And what did they sell at Parker Barrel? I don't go there. So I don't know about that. I wouldn't-- Oh, I wouldn't-- I wouldn't spill. It all comes around whole circle. So you were born in Plant City? Yeah, born and raised, yeah. And I know that your dad was a physician in Plant City. Yeah, that's right. Because I listened to the episode where you interviewed your dad. Which was very interesting. Which would make him the oldest podcaster at 83 or 81. Yeah, yeah. He wins. See, so I'm young and lovely after all. Aren't I? You're only 2/3 his age. I love soul-leaving. Actually, something else that I want to talk about at your-- about your podcast, Daniel, would be, I listened to the Bob Lasseter thing that you did. Bob Lasseter was a radio DJ that-- he was just like a talk show, DJ. He was a talk show god in the Tampa area. In the Tampa area in the early '90s. And I totally used to listen to him. So it was-- and I'd forgotten about him until you played that and you were talking about it. And he did this big-- what was he, talked for like 45 minutes or something on homosexuality and talking about how people could be stupid, you know, homophobic people are dumb, pretty much was the gist of what he was saying. It was just-- it was fascinating to listen to it again. Because I remember driving to classes and listening to him. So Bob Lasseter. Bob Lasseter. He has a Wikipedia page. I looked him up. Yeah, and he's dead now, which is sad. Yeah. And do you know who came and used to come on before him? Depends on which station you're talking about. Well, on the station when he was on with Ron and Ron. So that was WSUN. The person that was on before him was Neil Rogers. No, actually, because he started doing the morning show on WSU. God, this is boring. No, I'm getting to it. Do you remember Hooters on the Radio? Oh, God, that was such a horrible show. I loved Hooters on the Radio. So horrible. It was the first two Hooters' Waitresses. Yes, which is ever, ever. Because Hooters'-- the first restaurant is in Clearwater, Florida, which is right up at the night. That is not immediately screamed to you that that's something you want to listen to, with two Hooters' Waitresses on the-- They were so funny. But Hooters' Waitresses, by definition, is a visual thing. Oh, they were trashy as hell. I mean, and I met them once. I actually went to a Hooters to actually meet them one time, just because they were so funny. And they were tore up. I mean, they were not pretty girls. And now they're on the-- You're road hard and put away what? Very much so, very much so. And now they're on a show called The Sports Chicks, which is-- Well, there you go. Yeah, and it's like a sports show. But then they talk about, you know-- How old are they? They've got to be in their 40s, late 40s. It's because they used to have a sports chick. That would be over there. Incredibly old, they're in their late 40s. I believe the sports chick comes from the auspices of the ESPN studios right there at the boardwalk at an on Disney property, which would be over in your neck at the way. Yes. Oh, is that where they report it? Yep. Oh, no shit. Right on from the boardwalk hotel. But getting back to Cucass, Connecticut is-- Back to me. Excuse me, Cucass, CT. OK, I will quit bugging you other than just to ask the simple questions. Sure. Will you be announcing the new name, at least on your next episode? Yes. OK, which will probably come out before this episode comes out. Yeah, you're no, you're probably right. Because I think Kevin and I are going to record on Tuesday. See, unlike some other podcasters, we record a show, I put it out the same day. And I admire that about you. Do you? Yeah, but I'm not doing that on mine. See, because my own selfish reasons for asking is I blatantly ripped off Kevin singing his voice mail song. Yeah, I was going to bring that up. [LAUGHS] And so I can't credit you guys without knowing the proper name to credit see. So that's-- Well, now we're also out to the point-- now we're at the point where he can't even sing it correctly, so due to our Skype issues. So our last episode, we decided to just let the listeners sing it for themselves. Yes, I listened to that. This we gave them the-- Can I give a suggestion? And this is probably something that you've already thought of. Can he record it-- Go ahead. Ahead of time? Can he record it ahead of time? And then it's just something that you play, kind of like the way that like PSB, OK, is that something that may be in the works? Well, you know, that all depends on Kevin's technical-- Technical aptitude. OK, aptitude, big word. Big word, good times, good times, wooden spoons, and spoons. Well, you know, I have to say whether or not anybody else thought it was amusing. I found it highly amusing, you know. The method that I ended up going with for that particular-- The one where he was singing two seconds behind was very funny, because the music wasn't necessarily helping with the singing occasionally, so we would kind of hit these notes. Yeah, it was funny. So how long have we been talking for? You went through adversity. A long time. Yeah. We've been recording for 50 minutes. That was hot. How much are you going to edit? I guess it's the big question. We've been recording for 50 minutes, but in all fairness, we probably spent a good six to seven minutes before the show-- Oh, that's right, yeah. Well, usually that's about 45 minutes. That's about usually the length of my-- So you're basically just bailing now. You're just like, I'm just bailing this. Is there anything else-- Well, if we keep talking long enough, you get two shows out of it. That's true. That's true, but we need to have some sort of topics or something. Why? We never have topics at Cucass Connecticut. Well-- I think they're highly overrated. You know, I almost had as good as Cucass Connecticut as highly overrated. Huh? You think Cucass Connecticut is highly overrated? No, having topics. Well, yeah, yeah. No, having topics. Cucass. Hey, you know, we were nominated for a podcast award. That's right. That's very right. We are sitting here with the award-nominated podcast host, Michael from Cucass. Fill in the blank. Right. I was-- Callbox 7 was nominated with us on a different way. It was in the podcast, Pure Awards. OK. Congratulations. Well, that's excellent. And what are y'all doing on my show? Because I'm nominated for anything. Yeah, we know. Wow. How do you turn up his microphone again? I almost lost my headphones. That would be this button here. Good to know, good to know, good to know, good to know. Good times. You'll need us for tapping. Wind spans, wind spans. I suppose, you know, if you want to wrap up, we can. No, we don't have to wrap up. Do you have anything else to talk about? That's lovely. That's ass. OK, I guess we're wrapping up, though. We're holding Otis's butt up to the front. Good God. This has been bought as my co-piled episode 21. But yeah, thank you very much for listening to episode 21 of "Pot as My Co-Pilot." And thank you very much to my co-hosts, Michael of Cukask Connecticut. Sure. And Daniel from Callbox 7. Sure. You can check them both out at Cuk-- well, I guess we can't say what we can check you out at. Yes, the URL is saying this, though. Are you not eating attention? How do you not understand this? The point was is to rename the show so that he could keep the existing web address. OK. Wow. Otherwise, he could just-- Otherwise, because he deals with children all day. Yeah. Otherwise, he could just call it Cukask Florida-ish. Yes, Florida-ish. And then he could go change his address. Cukask somewhere. You should change the name to that. Yeah, you can find my podcast at CukaskCT.com. That's CukaskCT.com. Or you can check out Daniel at Callbox7.com. That's Callbox7.com. That's right. Callbox and the number seven. And the number seven. So not written out seven, but the actual seven. OK. I should grab that, though. I should grab that. That's probably not a bad idea. Right now. Yeah. Because I'm sure there's a huge demand for-- Well, you never know when the-- Well, it would save you time for having to keep saying that. I never say that. Actually, actually, it was the very first time I ever said it. And I'm patting myself on the back. We're not making a joke about it being Callback7, which is what you first talked about. I said it. Yeah, so I just don't want to thank you. I corrected myself quite quickly, though, didn't I? Yeah, you did. Good. OK. As always, you can go to our blog, which is podismicopilot.com. You can email us at podismicopilot@gmail.com. Or you can go to our Myspace page at Myspace.com/podismicopilot. Color me impressed. Nice. Oh, come on. But you didn't say the backsplash part. The backsplash. She's a slash. So well, thank you guys very much for being on the show this week. You're welcome. And we'll see you real soon. Bye-bye, everybody. Bye. Does that mean we have to have a conversation now without headphones on? Because I find it incredibly difficult. We can still talk about the headphones. I kind of like them, because you know what we sound so-- NPR-ish. We do. We're the spoons, we're the spoons. [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] (upbeat music)
