The Giggles (Royal Blood AOTW)
Download MP3Hello and welcome to the podcast. Podcast. We talk life, work and occasionally music. My name is Switchblades. Four Kids in the Other half the podcast. Hello, I'm Blake Beverly. Hello. How you doing? It I'm pretty good. I'm right. It's been a long week and we'll get to it, but I'm pretty good now. I'm chilling. How about yourself, my friend? How have you been? I'm fucked. I went to a three year old's birthday today and it was fucking worn me out. Oh, no. At a jumping castle. And let's just say I'm fucking worn out. Yeah, I could imagine. Honestly. Yeah. That is tiring as hell. And in the sun, too. It was great. Wasn't it raining today? Wait, what? No, I didn't see any rain. Okay, well, where I was, I was in toowoomba. You know, it's funny, you rained out at Mum's way as well. When I was talking to her at about 03:00 today, talking to her, and she's like, oh, it's just started raining,
literally. Not a cloud in the sky. What do you mean, not raining? Yeah, mum, you're a wire. It pissed down. Well, there you go. Anyway, how does this three year old how to go. How to go so we pulled up, right, jump the castle on the front lawn, and the kids immediately wanted to jump in, but they ran up to it and we're just like, actually, we'll go inside first. The house that we went into, because it's Kim's brothers and Mrs. House. That makes sense. My brother in law. That makes a lot more sense. Way more sense. I'm learning. But, yeah, he's got about, like, 30 stairs up to the second floor. Okay. That's like as soon as you open up the door, front door is 30 stairs upstairs, and then you're in the main living room. Is that Lucy? Yes, it is. I love that dog.
No, I hate stairs, man. It's like 30 stairs. I've got a sore fucking left knee and went up the stairs. And of course, kids gravitate towards fucking stairs or things that they can fall, literally. I know, yes. It's just like, cool. Hey, Matt, what are you doing? I'm just walking out the opposite side of the room. Oh, no, he's falling down the stairs. How did he fucking fly 5 meters across the room to go downstairs? That was kind of the shit that was happening. But I was the gatekeeper of the stairs. I had to sit at the top of the stairs and just put my foot there. I was just sitting down on the ground just talking to people. But main part was me putting my foot up so that kids that were running past to go to their bedrooms because it's like, here's the fucking stairs that go down, and there's like a little hallway that goes they can just be running either side of the stairs and go down a different hallway, right? So they're fucking they'll try and turn too early. And then I'll just, like, fucking boost their dead, fucking push them over. I saved your life. Instead of you fucking flying downstairs, I pushed you over and you're crying about a scuff knee. See you later, bud. Yeah. Yeah, Maverick. I had to teach Maverick to sit and scooch you, sit down on the stairs and scoot you back forward. And I got him to do that. I got him to do that the whole way down the stairs. And then I told him to get back up and do it again. And then he did it, like, maybe three or four times throughout the day. Nice. But you hold on, we have stairs, so how to close theirs? Five stairs, bud. You got five. But it's enough, you know what I mean? He climbs up and down the stairs all the fucking time. Yeah, all the fucking time. Yeah. And he's at the right age where he's just like I have to hold onto, I think, momentum carry me everywhere. He hasn't yet fallen down badly. Okay. One step sort of thing. I just sort of lost his footing a little bit and fell to one. But not like a bad fall, you know? He's pretty good. Oh, man. So I did a lot this week. Okay. I'm going to run through, like, fairly quickly with some of it. Anyway, I'm ready tuesday night. Tuesday, this is going to be a big, long story short because I don't really want to talk about medical shit on the phone. Okay, that's fine. But Harper got sick, took her to hospital, watched her overnight. She was all good, but they wanted to watch her anyway. I had to take her to Ipswich Hospital and then spent all day there. So we left, you remember? Yeah, we left on 08:00 Tuesday. And we got home at, like, I think 06:00 Wednesday. I hadn't taken my shoes off in that entire period of time. Like, none of us had, right? We were all still wearing the same clothes, except Arlo, because he got a fucking change of clothes because he came home with me anyway. But Aloe got a change of clothes. But anyway, the other three of us, same question.
It was so painful. Sorry. It was so fucking painful. Well, it's a whole day. Like, a whole day and night. Just spent hospital and getting home in July. Because I remember you talking to me that night and you're like, I'm absolutely fucking wrecked. I think you played, like, one game or maybe one or two games and you're like, I might just watch. Yeah, that's right. I was just like, oh, man, you need to go to bed.
That was very rough. It was very rough. Harper's fine for everyone who's concerned, she's all good. She had pneumonia, which is really bad in a five year old, especially because she's very skinny. So she's not, like, underweight. But she's, like,
probably a little bit below average. Yeah, fuck pneumonia. Yes. I didn't realize this when I was a kid, like real young. I'm talking maybe like five or six. Mom had pneumonia and apparently she almost died. Me and me and my brother didn't know this. So we were fucking running around the house like little assholes and throwing Hot Wheels at each other, which was the fun thing to do all the time. Dad had to come out and like, smack him on the ass. And he was just like he was apparently he had tears. I remember just having a sore ass. He's like, Mom's, really fucking sake, stop fucking running around. And I was like, what's happening? Why'd you hit me? And then it was like, hey, Ky, it's fucking Hot Wheel in the back of the head. Apparently it was like straight after that, we just sort of like we sat still for like 5 minutes. And then it was just I think it was like from what I remember, isn't it? Because I remember talking to mom about it when I was maybe like 15 or fucking something like that when you're older and you realize how fucking bad pneumonia is. And I was like, how close were you actually dying? She was like, oh, yeah, I was like, passing in and out of consciousness sort of shit. I was like, you were, like, actually going to die? I remember specifically throwing
if I'm six, he's three,
he's like three or four. Oh, my god. You know what makes it worse, too, and I fully appreciate this as an adult now, is kids running around in a two story house at the top floor. You know what you hear constantly all the fucking time?
It just never fucking ends.
I'm just going to the kitchen.
The kids are awake.
I coughed a lot about today. And then I realized that not now, but way later,
about how much noise we were really making as, like, little asshole kids.
Oh, that is so funny.
Anyway, I haven't been back to work, right, since Tuesday. I woke up fucking early Tuesday too. I woke up early Tuesday, didn't go to sleep until like, midnight Tuesday night. Slept for 2 hours, was awake for another 2 hours, slept for an hour and a half and then woke up. And then once we got to the hospital, it's a blur. Like, I literally I don't remember. I don't remember much. It's crazy, man. Yeah, I'm pretty sure we slept for hours and hours just in the bed. Because they had fucking babies in critical condition. They had two babies in critical condition. Yeah. I think what you're saying that because this is like the kids that are nearly dying sort of yeah, they were newborn. Yeah, right. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was all like one newborn and like a fucking few months old or something. But they were like, yeah, really sick. And they were like the nurses would come and they're like, I will be with you soon. And we're like it's fine. You can go save the baby's lives. It's cool. We understand. It's fine. Yeah, that's it. We'll just chill. It's all good. Yeah, if you're sitting in a bed already, man, and you're getting, like, hourly observations from nurses, don't save those little babies. Yeah, that's what they were doing. They just come in, like, check vitals and stuff, and you guys are all good. All right, no worries. And then back into it. But these guys honestly do not get paid nearly enough money. Did you hear code blue at all? No, there was no codes. Oh, shit. No codes? That's pretty wild in an ICU, man. We were fucking in the maternity ward. We heard fucking code. We had a couple of codes. I don't know if that was the ICU. We're in the children's emergency, so I don't know if they're two different things. I don't know how hospitals I didn't even know there was a children's emergency. I know there's an emergency room. They separate the kids. Yeah, straight up. Excuse me, young man. You'll line up over here. The children's emergency line also, because there's, like, fucking crackheads and shit in the emergency. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? Like, there's always some fucked up dude in the emergency. Fucking spudin in, fucking on retard sicko mode in the fucking everyone just leaves him alone and he minds his own business that he's just a fucking nutter, right? And they're like, you don't know. You don't want to sit here. Come down. As soon as someone looks at him or fucking says the trigger word for him to go fucking postal shit. It's part of the MKUltra. Fucking someone's activated my trigger word. This little kid that's just entered said the correct sentence for me to fucking absolutely lose my shit and kill everyone in the room. Thank God. Finally, the release. We've been living off meth for three weeks, and finally this little kid comes in, says the right, looks me dead in the eyes and says, daddy sitting in that seat right there. All right, time to kill. Time to fucking flip out. Thank you, Mr. Ness man, for stripping off and using the gumbor machine as a weapon.
Sentence that was told to me.
Pretty sure it's that fucking meme of, like, oh, my God. When the pigeon blinks in moors code. The sentence that was told to me by the demons that would initiate the awakening of some fucking bullshit. It's a good name.
We can't even use any of this.
Please. It's too funny, man. All right, you know what? I can bring this around. Okay. I was going to tell you about today, but okay. No, tell me about today. Tell me what happened on your Sunday. We went to Somber. Right?
Know what happened? View the footage. Oh, my God. Dude. Why can't we talk? I don't know. I could be fucking tired. We got the giggles. Oh, my God. Very video listeners out there. I'm
audio listeners. Copper the best part of it. They don't have to see us looking like idiots.
We went to go get Santa photos. Oh, nice. Because we're doing that every year now. But we booked the only booking because you had to book and you have to be like, there 20 minutes within 20 minutes of the booking time. Right? Yeah. Even though they'll make you fucking waiting in line. That's fucking an hour long. Yeah, it was like 15 minutes long. That's pretty good. But it was 01:00. And this is the problem, is that because Harper got really sick and got pneumonia, she has she needs special medicine, which we can only get a single dose of at a time because legally they're only allowed to give us a single dose. And it's the infant size because the fucking medical industry is out of the children's size. Fucking antibiotics. Right? But they can only legally give us one dosage at a time. So we have to go get her fucking medicine once every two days. The government's run out of the government big pharma, big pharmacy has run out of the chems. The big hems. Yes. They're literally running out of medicine. That's fucked up. That's scary, dude. Yeah. Maybe a lot of people maybe they're using the pneumonia stuff to cure fucking maybe it was like with COVID yeah, maybe
pneumonia. Pneumonia. Fucking hate that word. But, yeah, maybe that's why we're out of it. It's scary still. What do you use as an adult? Do you go into I guess you go to, like, a mocker cylinder or something. I guess it's because it's kids. So, like, the kids dosage is just fucking out. It's fucking scary still. Anyway, it's annoying as shit. So we had to give her her first dosage in the morning at nine. So we basically had to be a toowoomba nine that stayed till one, which is fine. So, what, you were waiting in line and then it's like, oh, sure, we need to go give her another dose. No, we gave her a dose after it should have been at lunch. But it just says three times a day. Yeah, there's a little bit of lee. There's a bit of leeway. None of the doctors said exact times. They just said three doses three times a day. So we went shopping. We were shopping because we needed to finish all the fucking Christmas shopping. But it's just it was hell. It was hell because children, they were actually both really good, though, compared to how they have been. So that was nice. But it's still an entire day, still Christmas shopping, man. It's still an entire day Christmas shopping with the family. And then at the end of everything, getting Santa photos, arlo also decided to trip in the playground and smash his face onto, like, a platform, cutting his eye open in two places. Right, good. Well done. Only very minor. But he has a black eye. Cleaned him up, man. I haven't had the Santa photo yet. Jess yeah. I didn't even realize that you had another set of photo. I was like, echelon. And then shopping. Then you got to the fucking last because you want to hold on to all your shopping and have worn out kids for the photo. Right. It was like the only time we could get there. So I was like, fuck it. And she needed the medicine. And nowhere close to Ross had fucking any. So it was hell, hell of a day. Then this is after last night of having to pay a snake man to get a fucking snake out of my yard. What was it? What kind of snake was it? I was like a fucking two meter python or something. Oh, like a carpet snake? Yeah. It wasn't like, this is kept. And he could have even lived in our roof. Oh, that's nice. Literally, he could have. Or he could have lived next door. Regardless, I was like, I'd rather him get relocated because if he doesn't and he comes back to my yard I've never handled a snake. I have experience handling a snake. Yeah, but I'm not going to. You should just grab him. I've grabbed a snake. You just walked and picked up the snake? Yeah. But you grab by the tail and then you fucking joint it back so it fucking turns around. I was grabbed by the fucking behind its necks or the whole fucking thing's a neck. But like,
I did it like fucking ages ago. Fucking ages ago, actually.
Not the head, but like, then what do I do with the fucking stage? Roll with the fucking yeah, I just threw it. Just grab it and you go because it whips. Yeah. No. So I got a man out to relocate it because I didn't want it near my fucking house. Yeah. Because I have four children. If it was just me, honestly wouldn't give a fuck. Because it was not going to come in the house and it's not going to wrap you up and try and fucking eat you. Yeah. It could probably eat arlo. It could probably eat Lucy. It would definitely go for him. And my son is far too brave. And he'll be like, grab you or you've got me. I actually don't know. I think you would freak out at the snake. Yeah. I think we're hardwired to freak out at seeing snakes and spiders. Yeah. Because when we see them, there's something in our survival instincts in our brain that just go, stay the fuck away from me. I don't want any part of that. I know that you're bad, like immediately. And it's even with some lizards as well. It's like just a thing you see. I don't want to deal with that. Yeah, I'm good. Yeah. That was my fucking cooked last week. Yeah, it was snake. It was just hell anyway, what were you going to say? Sorry, I'm done now. I'm done. You're done? You want to hear something cool? I'll read it to you straight away. And you're going to have to guess what famous person okay. It's Kanye. No, not Kanye. Sorry, man. It's the quote of the day. Okay. This famous actor once said, I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 100 times. Who could it be? He has a Pokemon based on him. Wait, what? Yeah. An original Gen. One Pokemon based on himself. Is it Bruce Lee? It is Bruce Lee. It is his birthday today. Holy shit. Yeah, it's Bruce Lee's. Bruce Lee's. How old would he have been? Fucking ages old. Fucking stupid old. That's Hitmonlee. Yeah, Hitmonlee. Yeah. He would have been born in 1940.
Wow. Really? 60? It would be 82 today. It would have been 82. Holy shit. That's so upsetting. Why? Because he could have like man, he got it done so much. That's really upset. You know who is still doing a lot? Jackie Chan. Yeah, right. Jackie Chan. Oh my God. Have you watched his old original Chinese films? No. I have. I've watched some. Do you know what might be in the pipeline soon? Another rush hour with Chris Tucker. Yeah, apparently Chris Tucker was on the plane next to I think it was Tom Sagura. And apparently Tom just fucking sits down and he is like behind him or beside him? Should I do another Busau or bush out his voice? And fucking Tom's like, I don't think he's talking to me. He looks over. He's like, are you asking me? And he's like, yeah, man. What do you think? Oh, I don't know, man. I don't think I should be making that decision. And he's like, yeah, I ran into Jackie Chan because he went to China. He ran into Jackie Chan. And then he said, what are you doing here? And I was like, I was looking for you. Apparently, like Jackie Chan's down, was making another fucking rush hour. And Chris Tucker was just like, as soon as he told that story to fucking Tom, he's gone. I want to do it. I want to fucking start making some calls. And he was like immediately on the phone, fucking texting shit. So, yeah, there might be another Rush hour in the pipeline, man. That's fucking weird. How crazy is that? Because you don't think of famous people being real people sometimes. Yeah, right. The people that you grow up with, you have that big suspension of disbelief that they could actually be real people. They are the characters that they are so well known for. You know what I mean? Like, you see Jackie Chan and you're like, hey, you know what? Jackie Chan plays the same guy in every movie. Jackie Chan plays himself in every fucking movie. I'm pretty sure he does. Jackie Chan is the brand as him. He's probably a lot more tame in real life. He'd still be a funny kind of guy. He wouldn't be as wacky. He wouldn't have been as nearly as Wacky, I don't think. He'd still be a very funny guy. 100% he would be, I reckon. Yeah. He was also the dad. Do you remember Jake Long? American dragon. Oh, yeah. He was the dad. I know. Was it the granddad? Yeah. That fucking show went on for ages. And he's still doing voiceovers for random things. He's still doing fucking movies and it's nuts. And there was a Jackie Chan show as well. Yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah. There was some wild ship, man. I remember the Jackie Chan shows. There was, I think, like a PlayStation One game or something. Or PlayStation Two game of Jackie Chan. And it was fucking awesome. Yeah, right. I didn't know that. It was really crazy that it's Bruce Lee's birthday we're talking about. Jackie Chan might be a little bit disrespectful. Men's dead and 82 years old.
I actually actually don't think I've watched a Bruce Lee movie. Never watched the one with him and fucking Chuck Norris. That cool. Fight. I can't remember. I think it's Enter the Dragon or something. It's really cool. Gently. He's a gently one. The multiverse thing. That was a fucking great movie. The Suit once again spruce Lee posthumous birthday.
But Jetly still out and about. Jack Jen is still doing his thing.
I can't remember his son's name. Anyway, he's dead, too. Black Crow. Yes. Is the Black Crow the one that killed Bruce Lee as well? No, I thought it was just his son. How did Bruce Lee die? Bruce Lee died on set of the crow. And then his son took over for Bruce Lee's part when they remade it. Just no way. You cannot be real. That is just too coincidental. Just shake. Death. Posthumous work. No. How did he die? Death. Where's Death? Show me. Death.
Died July 20, 1973, at the age of 32. Doesn't say how. Does not say how. Oh, hold up. Died cerebral edema. Extra accumulation of fluid in the intracellular or extracellular spaces of the brain. He got a water in his brain? Wait. That's how Brisbly died. Yeah. Wait, really? Brisbly died of fucking fucking brain water. I always remember. Why do I remember him have dying,
like, in filming? Because that's Brandon Lee. Oh, his son. Who died on the set of John. Who died, okay. Yeah. On the set of The Crow, right? Yeah, I guess so. Age 28. Damn, man. You got shot. He got shot because I think the fucking just like fucking gun got switched out recently. It was Alec Baldwin. Someone shot someone. Alec Baldwin? Yeah. Alec Baldwin. Yeah. I think the movie is called Rust or something like that. So this is the problem, though, that factors that movie real quick. That's coming out. Fucking what happened was is the actors and the gunsmith that were on the prop master was also handling the guns and shit like that would take the guns out because they're out in the middle of fucking wolf. Wolf. They would just go out and go shooting for a bit, like go fucking plankton and shit like that. And what's happened is they didn't clear the weapons. Then they went back and were like, okay, cool, time to fucking do the scene. And Alec Balbor just straight up shot a fucking I think he shot and injured someone else. So like one's dead and one's fucking injured because he just gone shot and he didn't realize because they were supposed to be using blanks. First of all, you got crosscontamination of fucking blank ammo and live ammo and you've got people who don't know how to fucking clear weapons and have them clear again by buddy. You're supposed to like in the army, it's a thing like clearing, having a buddy there to do your check. Because when you've got your weapon, you rack it back, you clear, and then you hold it up and your mate clears it and then it's like, okay, cool, I've checked. I've had to look at the bolt face. If I look at the fucking the chamber, you have to look at everything. You don't have a mag fitted source like that. Forward, you pull the trigger, click, no bang, weapons clear. None of that happened on the site. And Alec Baldwin's fucking murderer and the proposal gunsmith or whatever fucking I think it was gunsmith has made terrible, terrible mistakes. Not teaching good gun safety is the major problem with owning a gun. If you don't know how to safely use it, you're fucking up. Yeah, this is the States where they can buy them from the servo. You can get a gun for opening a bank account.
That's an incentive. I remember that in there was a movie called Boeing for Columbine way back in the day. And yeah, it was like literally fucking open a bank account in that state and get a free gun. It was like a shotgun. It's just so dumb. It's not it's crazy. Like I love guns. I'm gonna say I love guns and if I could own guns, yeah, that'd be cool. But at the same time, what am I going to use it for here? What am I going to use it for here? What am I going to use it for? To defend yourself from other people with guns. Maybe. Maybe. But it's so especially here. It is so unlikely. Because you can own a gun. I can own a gun. You can own a gun for fucking recreational use, but you can only own very limited guns if you don't shoot regularly in a club, not at work. I think that's the go with pistols. You have to be in a pistol club. Yeah, because I have a friend who has a pistol and he has to do that and he's getting bored of doing it. I could be wrong. It sounded like he was getting bored of it. But imagine, okay, cool. I've got a handgun and I need to go down to arrange pay club fees and stuff like that. Still. He's probably reloading ammo in July. I've got a mate. He's a master pistol shooter for Australia. And he does like international shoots and shit like that. And national shoots. He reloads. He loves pistol shooting. That's how he makes money on the side of the army. He fucking wins tournaments. That's fine. But you get another guy that's like he fucking is like, okay, cool. I'm sick of fucking shooting pistols. That means as soon as a club membership runs out, it's like, oh, I've got to fucking get rid of this. Yeah, I've got to sell it. Yeah. Because I can't keep it. Because I have no more reason to keep it. It's crazy too, because I don't think you can just sell a gun to someone even if they have a gun license. I'm sure you have to sell it to a licensed fucking gunsmith. Right? Yeah, I think you have to sell it to a gun shop. No, I don't even think it's a gun shop. I think you literally just go to a gun shop so that they can do the paperwork. And then it's like, you know like in Pokemon, where you got to go to Pokemon Center and use that weird fucking machine where you put the balls in and then it does this. That was it. I think it's like that. Yeah, minus the pokeball machine. Just a lot of legalities and shit. Yeah, I think that's it. Don't quote me on that. You should ask John because he'll literally know the answer. Yeah, he literally knows the answer. But anyway,
you know what's cool is it music other than guns. Yeah, he knows. Taking big shots. Fucking Royal Blood this week for the hour of the week. It's so weird. It felt like we just sort of, like, slowly crawled into the hour of the week. There like we just sort of like crept in. There was no actual segue. We just, like, solemnly talked about God. 15 minutes. Anyway, we're both really tired. Not really tired. I want to bring back the energy. I want to bring it back, boys. Oh, shit. Oh, no. He's not shitting. Guys, this week we listened to Royal Blood by Royal Blood, the self titled album from 2014. I'm pretty sure these guys are Australian, but they're a two piece band that have made some rockin metal. I want to call it metal, but with singing. In fact, it's like hard rock. Hard rock. It's like hard rock. I wouldn't go metal. OK. You can't sing in metal. Amity affliction
metal dio. Yeah, I guess so. I guess so. Megadeth metallica. The most metal banner is Metallica metal. Hicker.
They're really fucking good for their first album. I love them. I think when you said they sound like a simpler muse, I was like, that is spoton. That is so spoton. And I've got notes of, like, Carnival in there as well. And a perfect circle at some points because fucking muse, they usually weird chord progressions. They're really well known for using weird sounding chord progressions. Right? Yeah. Royal Blood sounded like they could have done the same thing as Views, right? But they just didn't. Right? They just made it a bit simpler. The offcuts of news. I'm just saying, like, instead of doing these weird fucking up and down and like off putting, you know what I mean? Because sometimes it makes you, like it gives the uncomfortable feeling, you know what I mean? Yeah. Like, you don't know really what's fucking going on. You're just, like, get a song that sounds like a real song. It's just a more easy listening to music. Right? Yeah, that's what I felt. That was my opinion. And that's not a bad thing because I listened to this album, like, so much, I want to say six or seven times. I'm probably going to say more. Wow, you went harm on this one. We also had two weeks. No, we didn't. Wait, no, that was two weeks for the last one. Dude, what a long week. What a long week. It has definitely been a long week. Yeah. Okay, well, I listen to it on Monday at work. It's crazy. At gym in the morning. Yes, I listened to it at gym first and then at work. So I listened to it twice on Monday. This is really good. Yeah, it's really good. It's just like I'm fucking into it. I'm going to listen to it again. It is a 32 minutes and 40 1 second album. It's ten songs. It is definitely enough that you could like, I think on the drive to work, I got stuck in traffic and I listened to the entire album. I didn't even realize I had listened to the entire album before I checked the thing. I was like, I'm listening to another band. What's going on?
I think a Wombat song came on or something. Yeah. And like, oh, they did a cover of the Wombats
and I was like, Is there like a fucking previous? I guess I just hit back until and I was like, I don't know how long I wasn't listening to them for. That's the only issue. Yeah, because I listened to this album so many times, but I don't remember where it ends. No, I loved it. Look, I listened to a lot of the back end of the album because I had listened to a lot of the front end, especially, like, out of the Black, figure It Out. That's a big hit. Almost nearly 200 million plays just for that one song. It's ridiculous. That's a lot. But, yeah, I listen to, like, I'd say, Little Monster Onwards, which is like six, seven, 8910 so literally just the back half of the album I really, really, really enjoyed. Especially ten tons skeleton. Yeah, ten tons skeleton. I know they know how to make a song. They know what they're doing. And for a two piece for a two piece band, they can bring some bass. They know how to use what they have to make it sound huge. It's fantastic. Yeah, I listen to it so many times. Sure. I actually listened to it during the whole fucking hospital night. Because I was like, I'm just going to listen to this because I got literally nothing else to do. Yeah. I can just won't use too much battery. Like whereas like YouTube or Ticks Off or something would listen to a little bit of music. It'll make the battery laugh on the I have a shopping car. In worst case scenario, I can go get it. I probably won't, but I could, right? Because that's what happened. Both our phones died. And we're like, we don't care. Yeah, it was a very humbling fucking experience.
Because it could have been anything. At first they were like, we don't know. It could be. There's a whole host of things we're thinking right now. Like, whoa, chill. Like Angela fever. And I was like, that's not very good, especially in a kid. And then they're like, Kawasaki's disease. I was like, what? And they never once explained how bad Kawasaki's disease could have been. But I messaged my boss because I told her, right, that I was like, hey, look, they think it's Kawasaki's disease. Yeah. And she was like, oh, my god, she okay. And that's what I said. I was like, yeah, they think it's a Kawasaki's disease or something. And then she, like, sent back screenshots of, like, Google fucking search and shit. She's like, it's all good. It's like, treatable. Like, it doesn't seem to be fatal at all. And I was just like, oh, well, that's reassuring because the doctors have said nothing fucking can't say, like, what? Dogs? Honestly. So that was fun. Like, I found out that it was all good. So I was like, lit. It's just pinnamno. Yeah, it was just pimmino. Just one of the fucking lungs. Yeah. Anyway, I listened to the album in fucking hospital as well. And then I listened to it because I stayed home. But I did like emails. And I actually called a lot of people on my day off, right? But whatever it is, but I listened to it all fucking Thursday as well. Like, I closed the office door and I was like, I'm going to just work in here because I wanted to be home in case we had to monitor half off. So I wanted to be home. But I was like, I'm actually going to just sit in here at work. So I work for a few hours. Listened to it all through that as well. Fucking Friday. I think I listened to it at gym Friday. You listened to it a lot. Yeah, it was cool. It was a good album. Sorry. I'm like literally going through every single time like I need to. I love it because I was just like we're almost at Sunday and I reckon you might have listened to it yesterday. I was going to say did you listen to it yesterday?
I think I listened to it every single day. That's really cool though because I think it's a good characteristic of an album that will stick for a while, you know what I mean? You know how there's just certain albums that we sort of go back to like that with an album fucking Renaissance, there are just albums that you flick back to all the time, you know what I mean? Renaissance is a big one. Fucking this album, the Royal Blood, could be the album that just sort of gets added into the mix where it's just like cool. Maybe there's other songs or things because actually speaking of which, I think it was Thursday afternoon or Wednesday afternoon I was going through their other songs and their newest songs and stuff like that. I tell you what, they've changed up their sound a little bit but it is still heavy. It still sounds good. I think there's still a two piece because it sounded like there were keys in there. There were like maybe a base. But no, it still sounds as hard as ever. So if you're looking to start somewhere with Royal Blood start with Royal Blood I guess because you can only go up with the evolution of them. The progression of Royal blood. It's good. What do you write it everyday? Probably like a nine. Yeah, listen to it every day. I listen to it every day this week. And enjoying it every day? Yeah, I enjoyed it every day. I don't but the funny thing is I don't remember when it finishes. I believe, yeah, I'm pretty sure I know where the end is. But because I listen to it, I listen longer than the other one spotify just does that thing of like not even giving a pause. Just like next one, next one. You're wrong. It would be nice if it just gave it a pause for a bit. Like just 15 seconds of silence. Right? Yeah. Even 10 seconds would be enough to be like oh right, the album is done. All right, cool. Yeah, it does like the blending of the song. You got the cross fade on. It looks like it's got crossfade on. So the end of the hour just cross fades into a random playlist
hard stop in about 3 seconds of silence. But a nine. But I'd say nine. Yeah, it was really good. Fuck yeah. Nice. I'm giving it an eight and a half. I really enjoyed it as well. I really fucking enjoyed it. I think it's a solid album. It's listenable for everyone. This is like an album you could recommend this to your granddad. Yeah, you could recommend this to fucking the pink head old lady that fucking enjoys vegan food but secretly fucking wants like a hamburger. You know what I mean? I could go hamburger. I would absolutely destroy a cheeseburger right now. Yes, I have a chicken salad. Oh, man. Yeah. Did I tell you about the meat man that rolls up around on Thursdays and Fridays? Sorry. I think it's like Wednesdays and Thursdays at the front. Get to work. Yeah. Is this dude who has this big smoker on a trailer and he sells it's called the I can't remember what it's fucking called. The builder's box, the builders box. And it's like one roll, like a little bread roll, a huge amount of pulled pork, three chicken wings, fucking two big slices of fucking what do you call it? Big fatty bits of, like steak and shirt. It's called the whole fucking thing. It's a box of meat. Wednesdays and Thursdays are hard at work, man. Okay. Anyway, the next album of the week, I don't know if you remember last week. I'm pretty sure I do remember. So if you do remember and anyone who was listening is it another two piece bend? You're wrong. It could be, but I think so. I actually think so. But are you ready to be heard again? Yeah. You're ready to feel maybe? Because I'm not even can't even front load this. Last week I made sure that I listened to a listener. Okay. He sent in a request and I said, look at it. And I didn't know what it was. Yeah, you don't know what it is and you're about to find out. And I had a look at it maybe I think it was like on the Monday. And I replied back to it. I said, hey, man, fucking you're going to have a little surprise at the end of the pod. Fucking and we're going to do the album that you've suggested. Mark, thank you for your suggestion. The suggestion end the album. Because it's definitely the fucking album, the album of the week that we are listening to this week to round off all of November. Her loss by Drake. That's why I asked if you were ready to get hurt again. Because this is our third fucking Drake album. Third fucking Drake album. You remember? Yeah. This is his latest album. I'm pretty sure. It's with 21 savage. 21?
21.
21 and Drake. This is her loss. Hopefully it's not our loss. Did we listen to? Take care. No, we didn't listen to take care. We listened to Certified Boy Lover and honestly, never Mind, two fucking albums that made me say, honestly, I won't ever mind again with fucking Drake. And here comes, my man. Fucking I'll bleep that last name. He says, get a load of fucking Her Loss. And I'll be like, okay, is it good? And he says, it's pretty good. So I'm willing to give it a chance. Willing to try. I've only been hurt by Drake before. He makes me sad sometimes. He's got some bops. Take care is really good. Take Care as an album is really good. And then he has some good songs from a lot of his albums. Yeah, I know. If you listen to like, Scorpion, that whole Scorpion album is pretty fucking decent as well. The one with fucking hotline sorry, hotline blink and fucking yeah, there's some bops in there. There's some real fucking bops. Okay. Yeah. You never know. Maybe he's brought back maybe it's like, I'm angry not at Kanye West anymore.

Thank you so much. We've noticed, actually, me and Blake just had a quick look at Transistor, which is the publishing website that we use for our podcast. And we've seen that we're, like, trending upwards on the amount of downloads per month, which is a really exciting thing to see, especially after nearly two years doing this. We don't pay for any advertising. No, this is all organic. Right? It's all organic. We don't pay for any advertising. So actually means a lot if you're gotten to this part. If you've gone this far, you must like us, because there's no other possible reason that you could be at this point, right? Or video either. What are you doing here? Why are you here? Normal people at the end of a video, they're just like, are they wrapping it up? Cut it off? Yeah, that's what I mean. So if you're at this point, please tell someone because you must actually fucking like this. You must enjoy listening to this. We're talking to you directly, literally, the single person right now in traffic, I know, on a plane, on your couch. You're doing the dishes. You're vacuuming the floor. You're standing outside in the sun, getting a wicked sunburn. Dude, just need to go inside, put some sunscreen on at least, dude. You need some aloe vera at least we're talking to you. Yeah, thank you.
Yeah. You mother fuck. There you go. And oh, fuck you. I haven't talked to you in a hot minute, but fuck you. Let's play some cod soon. You're right, blake, if you are still at this point and you are still listening, you've got to tell someone else about this podcast. You've just got to tell someone else.
Explicitly told you directly. We're not telling everyone. We're telling you because you got to think all the fucking all the normies. Regular fucking podcast listeners, not broadcast listeners. The podcast listeners. They quit out at the exit. They quit out when I was diving up the fucking the outro. Zakks opinion does not represent that of the cars. What we got here is true broadcast listeners. Okay.
What is it? Like the late night fucking version of it? What is it called? A playlist of it? After Dark. After Dark? Yeah. It's already fucking 10:00. It's well after dark. We need to go. Okay. I'm thank you very much for listening. We will see you guys next Thursday. Bye now. Bye.
