0:00 Hi, world saving podcast. Hi, Nick. Hi, Andy. I just want to know your dirtiest favorite sex position and your most vanilla favorite sex position. Andy, I feel like you secretly love making love. Gazing somebody in the eyes. So let the world know. Thanks. Andy frasco world saving podcast. Our heads as our minds. Are we trying not to, you know, just destroy our body every day, you know? Yeah, that's our goal.

0:49 We're going for drinking water. Um, very special episode tonight. Um, thanks for, uh, sorry. Last week. Got it behind me. So we started the world saving archive. I hope you'll relisten to that camp interview. That guy's pretty legendary, but we have some time. We are in Saint Louis, Missouri. We have a lot of special guests tonight, but we also have the band. The band is here tonight. Hello. Let's go. Let's go. You might not recognize any of these motherfuckers, some of you. But the band is here tonight. Um, we have an AMA. People want to get to know the new band members while we're, uh. While we're kind of like, what the fuck happened? You had. You didn't announce anything. You just showed up. You just gang banged us with a bunch of new guys. So we're gonna here to introduce the band first. Um, because it's been no one's.

1:36 We haven't really talked publicly about what the fuck happened to Sean, and we haven't really talked publicly about, you know, what are what's gonna what the next four months is going to look like for this band. So, um, beats. Take it away. What? What am I here? So this is what I get for 15 years. Oh, yeah. Okay. Um, no. It's so funny now that I'm like, you know, I do my shtick. Like, this is our 15 year anniversary this year. I look at all you motherfuckers. You all haven't been with me for 15 goddamn year. 15 months. I always go to the Cuny. I'm like, man, it's been the hardest 15 years of my life, you know? Just fucking winging it. Um, but what a ride this been.

2:17 Um. I've made people cry. Raise your hand if I made you cry. It was on the verge of tears. He was on the verge. The first. Bird. It was a you know, sometimes, you know, I got, you know, it's like, you know, as your as your fearless leader. Sometimes I gotta figure out what the fuck to do, because, you know, Sean is a big force in this band. And, uh, not having him around opened up, um, opened up the studio space to explore. Right. See? So, um, when you're first figuring out, you know, you don't want when you have new musicians, you don't want, um, to make them feel like you're just being a typewriter. And I said, that's a fucking. Um. I apologize for saying that to my voice.

2:57 You can get into that a little later. Let's figure out why. Why these guys are here. Especially Cooney because Sean tours MC. Is it terrorism? Yeah. What? Kneecap. He has bad knees. The man has bad news. I mean, he is fucking 48 years old or 47 years old. Yes, but he's he's strong in different ways. His kneecap went over here. Yeah, but he didn't. And it didn't go back in. And at the last time, when was the last time that happened? It happened at. See here now, ten years ago. No, it was like 4 or 5 years ago. Right before we went to Europe. Right before we went to Europe. Yeah, he tore it. It was in rolling Stone. It was rolling Stone. Yeah. That knee, um, that that knee lasted longer than what?

3:40 Um, the the mushrooms. Atlanta. My. On my stage. Um, but yeah. So we haven't had that happen in a while. It was also, you know, he was it was kind of a tough thing. It was his fucking birthday. It was his birthday. Yeah. Everybody was having. A good time, and then boom. One wrong move. One wrong move. I didn't even do. Anything like gnarly. It was just like he, like, steps to grab his beer off his amp or something. It was like, really? I think probably just playing a little too intense. I remember the night before I was like, you know, everyone was kind of giving me lackadaisical effort. I'm like, fucking you all better step it up tomorrow. Like, just fucking drill sergeant a little bit. And I think he took that personally and try to go extra hard and popped his knee out.

4:22 And the scary part was when he was like, we need a name. We had that was we haven't really stopped the show before. Yeah, luckily it was the end to it was. Luckily we saw it. Luckily we couldn't stop the show and, uh, we had to call the ambulance. And once shit got real. Yeah. Don't fucking don't go in that ambulance. Because why ambulance are so fucking expensive? Yeah. Thanks, America. Yeah, thanks. I think they've always been. I think. The fuck. My boys heard out here. You're gonna charge him five grand. Charge me five grand. Fuck that. He took a big old swig of whiskey and took a big old swig of whiskey. Rub. Rub some dirt on. Around and get that big old bottle of whiskey. Looks like they're about to just amputate it. It was like a scene from. Like. It's like a pirate.

5:04 Like a scene from tombstone. Scene from tombstone. It was. It felt like a scene from tombstone. They put him on the fucking pool table. I was smoking a cigarette right next to the ambulance guy. Like holding, puffing a cigarette inside, like. So what's the problem? I was like, I probably shouldn't be smoking cigarette. He was like, the aim is like, uh, you guys are part of the problem. So he's getting surgery on September 11th. Ooh. Rest in peace. Never forget. Damn. That's too soon, man. That's like seven years ago. No. How long was nine, 11. 25 years ago. Oh 24. 24. Damn. Never forget.

5:47 Well, we're never gonna forget his knee, because that's the hopefully the last time that thing, has to jiggle that, they say. Like Will Smith says, getting jiggy with this. Yeah. Um, so rest in peace, Sean. But Sean's gonna be out for four months, so get used to these new guys. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage, Mr. Andrew Cooney. Oh, hello. Hello. Yeah. How's it going? How's it doing? How are you? How you feeling? It's a lot of big shoes to fill with. Um, I physically and and, uh, literally. And, you know, he's got big feet. Yeah. He does. He does. It. He goes, you have a hug. We need big hugs for a guitar. You know, I think me and whoever else fills in together probably, you know, it's like captive to that. It's like, uh, what's that movie?

6:28 Uh. Or, um, Transformers. You just all gotta connect. Where you all have. To. Connect together to be crazy. Yeah. Water. Earth. That's really. Like we're three. Different. Movies. Like all three of those movies. But, um, I feel like we finally got a show. It's a it's a different show, and I want to say, I really like it. How? It's different. It's like, not really rock n roll, like in-your-face rock n roll. I'm kind of loving this new thing going on. How y'all feeling about it? I mean, I'm just doing what I can to to try to make everybody feel like the songs are are there and full and and what, you know, they expect. And I mean, maybe not exactly what they expect, but, you know, bring it up to the table that it's like sounding like a band, you know. Right. I mean, you wrote half these songs now. Well, luckily and luckily, he's I mean, he's been on the road with us doing big festivals during the rhythm guitar before, so he kind of knew. Yeah.

7:22 Most of the songs, which was great. I'm still filling in a lot of just like rhythm stuff, but, you know, and I'm picking up a lot of like the, the staple licks so that somebody else can come in and do the solos and. Right. Yeah. Are you partying as much as Sean? That's probably not. Good, though. I don't know. Could he go? Oh, no. No no no no. I like to have. I like that. I like to have fun. I like to have fun, but. No, no. Come on. I've seen who went to bed the other night before we flew out of Charleston. Yeah. Oh. Listen, you need a bug for that on your thing. Listen, it's not my fault, you know?

8:05 You know, like the party, if you can. But that was also a fucked up situation. We were just gonna go watch a movie. Yeah, the timing was fucking insane. Beats you. We snuck in. We're like, we're gonna go chill. We're gonna go chill. We snuck into a movie. We're all watching a movie. Nick and I, we're all laughing watching this dumb Jurassic Park, which are so dumb. But we're. Great. We're like, let's just go get a quick bite. Of course, the quick bite was across the street from the poorhouse, and I felt I just felt that Jurassic Park moment with the water. Stagnant water. Goo goo goo books. I'll still get a call from Daniel Snell. Hey, where are you at? I'm like, fuck. Okay, we're at. We're at Bar George. And then I felt that once I saw the Skippy text. Hey, man, we're at the movie theater right next. Door to the.

8:47 Restaurant. Which way? Quick shout out to to Bar George. That food was incredible. Oh, shout out to Peruvian chicken. Peruvian chicken. The flank steak with the sugar via the deviled eggs. I want I knew that I honestly like, you know, like that one. Indians here and they make a good cup when that first when the when the people were littering on the on our Native American land and that Indian had that one little Indian tear and he was crying. That's what I was. Am I saying racist right now? I don't think it depends who you ask. I don't think that's P.C., but the Native American has that one tier. I was like, I knew what was about to happen. I was about to hang out at the Little Stranger house till 6 a.m., and my flight was at 9 a.m. and, uh, that's what happened. And we're just, you know, it was like six in the morning, and we're all just crying and like, I miss him. We miss each other. And I'm like, fuck, you know about the logic? There is a bag on me. I'm like, fuck, do I gotta stop doing cocaine? I looked at, I looked at, uh, I looked I'm like, I gotta get out of here because I was so good this whole fucking trip. And then I go to the stranger in Charleston. Hey, one out of three. One out of three. Coke.

9:51 One out of three days in baseball. Baseball. Three days. Oh. Name number. That's all paid numbers in baseball. One out of three. One out of three. Um, we also have a little stunt cock tonight.

12:05 Ernie Chang's in the building tonight, too. Sam. Why is everybody looking at me? First time Ernie seeing Sam play together is kind of scary. Oh, wow. Okay. Is it before we get into Matt's, um, philosophy on this band, while I'm thinking about Sam, what's going through your head right now? Having the big man be there on side stage? I mean, I'm stoked to play with them, man. It's been a it's been a minute since we got to play together. I mean, it was Durango, Colorado was the last time, you know. Yeah. Um, so it'll be cool to kind of hear him on some of these tunes that he's been playing for almost 15 or over 15 years.

12:45 So, uh, I think it's gonna be cool. I mean, it's just like, it's your guys's family. It's your guys's history, and it's stoked to. That's the most politician ass comment I've ever heard of.

And, uh, you know, being in a band that's been instrumental for the better part of my life. You know, when it comes to naming your music, you can call it whatever the hell you want. Yeah. It's so fucking music. Yeah. So think of something fun, you know? So. So this record, uh, I have a couple songs. Actually, three songs are out already, and it comes out the full thing comes out later in September, and it's the first thing I put out under my own name.

Let's go. That's.

15:33 That's real jam band show right there. Um. Well, great. And we just found out we're playing. We're doing a private party Sunday for John fucking Fogerty. You like John Fogerty? Who doesn't? I can't believe. Are you allowed to say that you don't like John Fogerty? I, I don't even I didn't, I I'm glad they didn't tell me this earlier, because I would have been up that ass of trying to get a meet and greet with the with John Fogerty. Um, we have John. Who else is playing in your family playing that show? Pete's little solo bus. The homies, Los. Lobos will be there. Yes. Isn't this crazy? This. God, what a crew. The homies. So any notes? Do you want what? Let's do it publicly. Do you need any notes from us to do this? Or you're just going to kick ass out there? Uh, no. I'll take notes for sure. No, no.

16:16 Like, what do you what, like, is there something like you don't want us to do? Do you want me to pour James in your mouth? Do you want me to throw mushrooms in your mouth? What? Tell me something you don't want me to do. Don't want what's off limits. Yeah. Um, I don't know. I'll push you away when something's off limits. I'm coming in with an open mind. All right. Hopefully he remembers. what that means. Welcome home. I want to be a team player. Open minded. Open. Open up! Coming in here saying no. And don't you know that there's hazing? If you're if you're joining the band, there's a little bit of hazing. So you're telling Franco that he's gonna have to find your line is what's going on? Find the. Line. Yes. I don't even know where the line is. Let's find out. We're gonna put you in black. There you go. There you go. There it is. There it is.

16:59 Enjoy the day, baby. And let's go have some fun. Thank you. Matt. Give it up for Matt. Ladies and gentlemen. Thank you. Matt. Um, he will be in full blackface tonight for Saint Louis, Missouri. I'm just kidding. Um. Okay, guys. First off, I'd like to talk about. I want to apologize on public of why I made Sam cry. So let's talk about Sam's version of this story, and then I'll talk about my version of the story. So what? So how sad were you when I. When that happened? It was. It was Amagansett. Um. You know. Yeah, I guess I was more, like, frustrated because, like, I saw where you were coming from, but I also was like, like disappointed that, like, we didn't give the show that we should have that night. Yeah.

17:41 And, um, and I was also kind of like, man, I feel like we're making a, making a big deal out of this. And like, I was like, that's what made me mostly sad. I was like, I was like, I feel like there was a way for us to kind of get to a similar point where we were at. I totally forgot that it was a bunch of rich cougars at the show. The crowd was not. The crowd wasn't. It was 90% of the crowd was prescribed Xanax. Yeah. And they were. Also like looking at the bar. It was a high ticket. It was for the rich people. It was in the Hamptons. And I was just like, yeah. And then I started getting into my Phil Jackson shit. You want to be a typewriter or you. Want. To be a leader? Let me set the scene. It got really dark and, like, the temperature drop. Like, what was it, 33 degrees in an instant. The one you see your breath on the bus, and fatso.

18:23 Comes busting into the room, and there's some lightning out of the. Window. Good show, good show, good show. You know what? You know what? Lock the door. It was. I was like, I. It was. You guys are in the van. Yeah. You felt the fucking rumbling. You know, I, I walked, you know, with these fucking big old flip flop of feet. You hear me coming from. I knew exactly what was about to happen. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I stayed far away from all of that. Oh. Poor guy. I'm like, great. You know what? God fucking. Damn it. Sometimes you. Gotta. And then what happened the next night? We fucking crushed. We crushed. Well, you know, it's that idea like that. I feel you looking in the ass.

19:06 I felt like. I felt like. And you told me that you're like. I'm like, I'm sorry for yelling. He's like, no, you know, it's like, heard. And we'll do better. Look at us now, though. I was like, that was the breaking point of like, are we going to commit to this thing or not? And, uh, you got ever since then, I got, I can't, I gotta, I give flowers or flowers a do you guys are fucking crushing. This is some the best, happiest music. Best music I've played personally in my life. and, um, I'm so I feel fulfilled right now. And I just want to say thank you. So I love you guys. Let's go. And I love it. Take us more solos. Yeah. Watch out! Liberace. Oh, yeah. I'm jamming with you guys.

19:47 I've never jammed, you know, like it's. Oh, you lost your, uh, watch this. Broke your watch. This broke. Oh. It's fine. We'll fine. So before we start the AMA, I just want to say this has been one of my favorite tours, and, you know, and it's just been a wonderful experience for me because a lot of time, I lean on these guys, I lean on Andy, I lean on Sean, I lean on Floyd. And, uh, to not have him there, I gotta lean on myself. And it gave me the confidence that I could leave on myself and for you to trust me as another big dog in this community. And I just want to say thanks for trusting me. And, um, thank you for, uh, giving me the fucking wings. The fly boys. Let's go. Let's go. I love you.

20:30 I'm on it. Thank you. I needed. This confidence. I've been. Insecure. You know, I'm always relying. Always. Just like thinking about what Shawn's doing or what Shawn's fucking up to. Or what Floyd, you know? Just trying to entertain all them all the time. Then being having a break for a while just made me realize, um, what does. What. Does Frasca want? And, uh, I this has been the best. I just can't thank you enough. You know, and it sucks at Shawn. It has to happen when Shawn's fucked up. But I need this confidence and moving forward that, um. That I'm a dog, too, so thank you, guys. Hell, yeah. All right. You were so mad at them. I was. So fast. This is the band. And this is Andy Avila. Beach, 15 years. Uh. I mean.

21:11 I was like, I didn't, and then he just. Drops this microphone and. Walks. Off stage. I'm gonna introduce the band. This is Andy Avila, and that's it. No, I like. The thing when I go, it's all right. He's gonna yell at y'all. But what? It didn't Bo say something to you When I walked out of the on the bus. I think we all knew you were going. Oh, you got shootout. Bye. Oh. Thank you. Oh, you finally got Frasca. They got shootout. He's like lucky. You. You only had to do it. Once it takes, it's 20 times. I was like, oh, poor bozo, I love you, but keep working hard. And I fucking ripped this motherfucker in half walking. Just. You're kicking ass. Two ladies don't actually walk or get over here for a second.

21:53 We got Walker, our monitor guy now. Yeah, he is now that when Jason's on a sex page, he's having sex right now. I hope so. I hope so. I hope so. Is it his anniversary or. Is it every year? Every year? So Walker is now doing. Um, he's he's he's controlling the mothership. Um, how's it going? It's good so far. I feel like we haven't yelled at you in a long time. No. Not today. Stay low. Yeah, right. Try to stay out of it. Yeah, well. Whoever's. Doing monitors is going to get yelled at. Yeah. That's like the. That's the position. That's the first. Everything. Yeah. Oh, man. The first line of. How's it going out here? You having fun? I'm having a. Blast.

22:33 I love. Mix. In front of house. It's like what I like to do. Yeah, but, uh, I'm just happy Jason brought me on board to do monitors for you guys. Because you guys are great. Great crew. You know, you're fun to hang out. I love, even though you get worked up every once I. Get worked up, I, you know. Mexico, I saw it, I was. Like, wow, this is going to be. Oh, yeah. Why don't you tell the people what I did in Mexico? Um, for you, it was. A. You know, I. Walked into the wrong room, which happened to be your room. I thought I was walking into my room and we hung out, and you were just like, let's have a talk. You know, I think you're fucking lazy. It's like, whoa.

23:14 I can't handle laziness. Walker. And something I worked so hard 24 hours I like. That's one of my pet peeves. And you've been doing a better job. Yeah, man. Yeah, I'm just trying to get the Mexico. Still trying to get the vibe. You know, like where where am I going to fit in exactly? Like, where am I picking up the slack? So I think I'm on board now, so. All right. Good. You know, um. Well, good job I have. We, uh. I feel like we haven't yelled at you in a while, so listen up, you fucking lazy piece of shit, okay? We're gonna do it publicly.

What do you do? Do you like. What are you doing here? Do you have sex or. Yeah, probably. Due to some of. That. Like what? We're gonna go down for. Tantric. Shit. What are. You doing? My. My girl. She's an amazing cook, so I'm just gonna eat a lot of food. We're gonna go out there. You're gonna see. Something. Else. Yeah. You know. Probably run around in our underwear a little bit.

Oh, remember when I was pissed at you and made you cry, sir? Yes. Every time you're mad at me, I have to ask her. The last. The last one was in, in in Baltimore. And you said it was his birthday. And and you said it was my birthday. And some girls like it's my birthday, too. I was like, great. And I saw some big dude. They sent out the drum throne that I had to sit on.

25:19 Well, Happy birthday Walker. Thanks for putting up with our bullshit. Monitors are probably the hardest in this band, but I feel like it's been a little more compact. It's been a little cleaner. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. Lately. Right. I think I think we're both kid. I'm getting used to the way you guys play. I think you guys are getting used to my mix.

So I've been substituting this from Jameson because I like the idea that there's, uh, ginger lime juice and green herbs in this.

26:01 So I kind of feel healthy drinking this when they got all these different ones. Like, I was kind of nervous about this bourbon cocktail, but it's bourbon whiskey. Green herbs, lime juice, ginger and jalapenos. Got a little spice to it, but you put some ice in it and it's actually a cocktail. And like, I'm not really good at proportions, so it's already made for you. Look at this. It's cute too. It could be on your table. You'd be like, oh, look at. You're sophisticated.

Um, the first one they named. And I know why they did this. And fuck you. Uh, what's your favorite shrimp dish? That is what the first question is. Wow. Wow. First off, thank you for buying hundreds of those fucking t shirts. You guys are fucking insane, big boy. Uh, my favorite shrimp dish. Um, I mean, shit, I you ever meant a killer shrimp?

Yes, I would say Pedro. I'd say Brad Pitt has to. Be gay person. Right? Is that one. Big gay person? All right. Um.

Obviously, this. Place is good. Ooh. What about the liberty? What about Margo? Uh. What? Art. Oh, Margot. Robbie. Margot. Robbie. How old is she, though? 33. Oh, yeah. How about Dua Lipa? Lipa? Dua Lipa? Yeah. Um. Ooh.

29:37 Kendrick, we're gonna ask. Beats this one. Who? Who is the best kisser in the band. And beats this one. In the band. In the band. Who gives you the best kisses? Well, is that the question? That is. It says, who is best kisser in the band? Who is. Who is best. Kisser in the. Band? Yeah. Andy, you kiss good. But you just smell like cigarettes. Oh, I don't know. How about that girl putting a lemon in his mouth? Oh, God. Oh, yeah. What That one. Where's this bar? Where's this? I think it was in Southampton. You could cut this if you want. No, we're at this bar.

30:17 You can keep it. And this girl. He was like. He was making out with this really hot girl. And, like, at the bar, she, like, went like this and, like, put a. Lemon in. His mouth and was like. Suck. On it. And she sucked on one, too. Like, like they were taking a shot. And then. Then she kissed you. It's an old bar trick. It makes you smell. Good when you. Put a little lemon in there. Oh, well. Shot that. Thank you. I think I've only kissed Andy. No, I kissed. You kissed Sean? You kissed her. I've seen you kissing. Oh, yeah, I kissed Ernie. Um. I think just because I kissed you the most. This is another. By the numbers. That's true. This is another good one. The numbers. What is the grossest thing you've seen? One of your band members eat or drink? I think it was that. That, like thing that, like, what was it, Ham or chicken that we, er, fried it like three in the morning at one time. From the chicken we air fry the fucking. I forgot. We air fry the whole chicken.

31:14 Dude, they can wrap. Oh, it was bacon wrapped. That was foul. We put honey on it, right? Or like syrup. Uh. We like, we like. I'm glad I was like we were glazing it and putting. It in the air fryer. Oh my God. We woke up the next day. On the menu was cheese tea, which I'd never heard of. It was interesting just yet. No. On the menu of the place we went yesterday. No cheese tea and I had never heard of that before. And I like to think of myself as a well versed planarian. But it was that 3 a.m. we thought it was a great idea to bake a whole hen bake and a gas station hen. Oh my God, you guys came in there like we got. Whole. Ham. We're gonna put it in the air fryer. Like, how is he gonna fit in?

31:55 Like, it was huge. Uh, it was frozen, wasn't it? Yeah. It could have blown up. Yeah. Uh. Alley crawl. Posted, uh, sent a question. Um, which one of you assholes leaves the toilet up, toilet seat up on the tour bus. I think it's everybody I know. I see I'm like really close. In every. Single. Time. I think it's, I think maybe people think it's up because when you hit a bump, it jumps maybe and it slams and it sounds like it's closing. Maybe. No, we're drunk and peeing all over pour probably. It's like, I don't know, I'm all over the fucking scene. I don't know who broke the flusher on the. So I guess.

32:41 This is why Andy doesn't do the band pods. Fuck. This is a bad idea with these questions. Start talking about the list next. What say the game should bring up the list next or what? The list? The list of. Andy. Andy says okay, so references. Cooney, what are you? What are you? I just noticed one day that Andy had a habit of, like, saying common phrases just like barely wrong. Kind of like the guy from Trailer Park boys. Like. Like he would say, water under the fridge. That's not Andy. That's the trailer park boys. But the first one I noticed was he said. He said Kanye West was off his rocket. Rocket.

33:22 Anyway, you tend to say didn't put one and one together, which that's not as bad, but it's two and two everybody knows. What else? I'm a person, people. Can't you just call the chef or something to get him out of the tickets? He's talking about a judge. Yeah. There's one recently. Oh. He's talking about a massage parlor. Did you ever read the reviews of a circle jerk joint? Circle jerks? He's like, yeah. You know, like a brother.

34:02 Yeah, yeah. Here's a. Deviated septum with a good one. Just. Just out here watering fires. What was the other one? It was like when. We were doing. The kind of. On the count of three taking my picture. Okay. Action. There's a whole bunch of them. It's the only. Way we're gonna make a book. It's gonna be available next year. Uh, so you know, I am dumb as fuck. Shout out to that. I think your. Brain moves faster than your mouth. Yeah, that's. Yeah, that's why it's funny. Because it's, like, not on purpose or like. But it's makes me laugh. Uh, tell us the story from the last tour. Highlights Lowe's challenges. Um, let's talk about the challenges.

34:53 What was the challenges from the last, this last tour that we're about to face? Obviously, Sean breaking his knee. And having to bounce. That was like, what are we gonna do? Finding the energy. That was feeling. The energy that show. In at talk. House was like, it was like. Well. And it would it it'll probably we'll talk about how it's a benefit to but also having like the new guys, um, filling in on guitar. I think that was a challenge because, you know, like you were like it for that element of the group. And just like, how is this person going to interact with us tonight? And I mean, overall went pretty well, but it was still us adjusting a little bit. You know. That was. A big. Challenge. Big challenge. Um we persevered. Is that a word? Persevered. Built persevered.

35:35 One second one in the book. It's kind of a it's kind of a good mix of two. It's like prevail and persevere. Yeah, that's kind of a cool mix. So that was a veil. That was. Good. What's one bad habit everyone should adopt? Um, bad. That's a hard question. Wow. It is a hard. Everyone should. Adopt. Should adopt. Maybe. Shouldn't adopt. No, but. It says should. Say shit. No, no, no, let's make it. Shouldn't, shouldn't a job? Well, let's do cocaine. Cocaine? Don't do it. Don't do the cocaine, people. Yeah. Um. What about some bad habits you should adopt?

36:17 Like, people think it's bad habits, but. I don't know. Does that. Is that staying up a little too late with your friends? Because sometimes it's actually a really good time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That is a good bad. That's a good bad at it. That's a good thing. I was going to stay up till 4 a.m.. And just talk with the bread. And roses. And roasted chicken. You just need to do it. Yeah. Sometimes you want to just buy a weird chicken from a gas station and hang out with your bros. Yeah, just do that. You'll. You'll get to know each other. No extracurriculars. Required. Yeah. Does anyone else think Cuny looks like the current version of the I see dead People guy? I think I do. Yeah, I think we're okay. Here we go. Awesome. Whoever's doing the. Video, pull up a picture of you, and he's a little. Baby. Yeah. Yeah. No no. No. They said the now versus.

37:04 I mean, I looked at I looked like him my whole life. Oh my buddy. One time when that movie came out, he called me before school. He's like, dude, you're in the paper. And it was the movie section. It was a picture of Haley Joel Osment for what was called Sixth Sense. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah. I've always looked like him. Oh, sick. I I'm taller than him now. Um, let the record show. Ah. So you could totally, like, beat him up now. So you're saying. Yeah. Now, whoever let Andy. Know that now he's gonna. Call you that on the World Saving podcast. Next we have Haley Joel Osment. Thank you. Thank you. Um, his name's Haley. Haley. Yeah. Haley. Joel. Haley Joel osment. He does his. But he's too short, I think. I take that offensively, but because I love you. Kidding. I mean, you're well. Thank you. Um. Does Andy litter cigarettes?

37:46 Be honest. Does he litter? No. He puts him in his pocket and they end up in the washing machine. Let's fucking. Every time, you guys. No one wants to do laundry. All my cigarettes are in my pocket. In his pockets. Thank you for, uh, thank you for saying that without me forcing you to say that is very true. Just walks out of the laundry with a laundry thing with all his cigarettes on the washer. One of them. Do you? This is a good one. Do you often remember people from shows? Only standouts. Never. Or familiar faces. Do you remember everyone? I need to be. I need to be reminded. No. The one who's not here. Sean remembers. Everybody. I don't know how he died. I don't know how. He. Does. But he's like his names.

38:26 Yeah, like, I like, recognize faces. Yeah, but I won't remember why. You know, you think it's somebody else, too? Like. Like for weeks. Caleb reminded me of somebody else, and I couldn't fucking figure out why. I thought I knew him, but he was like. He looks like my friend that I. Yeah. You know, like. I thought he used to be good at faces, and now it's like, nope, I'm bad at names and faces now. Someone I like that Vince Herrmann said. He's like, someone said like Vince, you can't remember. Like, why didn't you remember my name? And he's like. He's like, I'm not. Like something along the lines of like, I'm not forgetful. I'm just full. Like, my brain is full. I've met so many people. Like, I have no more room to remember. It's like. Facebook. You can only have 5000 friends.

39:09 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Um, I like that. I like this one. Hold on. I just had it here. Um, here it is. Hold on. Where is it? Did I miss place it? How did we meet Floyd? So I can I tell the story? Yeah. Okay. So? So Shaun. Knew Floyd because they used to play in bands back in the day. In Sean's. Old band. And Floyd's old band used to play together. And our bass player, we were looking for a bass player for a while, and we're coming in and tuck it and he goes. I got. A guy, he's coming out. He's a great player. He's a great player. He's going to come in. We're great. We're in the.

39:50 Band House of the Chicken Box, and I look in the back door and I go, dude, there's a homeless guy trying to come into the band house. I thought Floyd was homeless the first time I met him because he was wearing, like, a torn jacket, a beard growing out, and he smelled like he smelled fucking. So. Well, we met him through. We met him through Sean. Sean, Sean brought him around. And. Made him stick to us. Kind of. Yeah. And, uh, I thought, now we can't get rid of the motherfucker. Just like that odor. Um, yeah. Floyd. Uh, also, Floyd, the reason why Floyd is in town is because he is taking his kid to school. He's taking his kid to school. Yeah. It's really he's really good, dad. Um. Oh, yeah. Here's one.

40:33 I like this one. Um, there's. This is the. Being on the road is tough. What is something that brings you joy on a daily basis? I'm saying food. Ooh, food. We all get so excited when we say, what are we gonna eat today? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And also, I think like, that brings us together. We all have dinner. Together. When. We get on the bus. We're all cooking food. Together and. Like watching a TV or whatever. It's just like a chance for us to all get together. And I. Think it's. One. Of my favorite things to do is just follow you guys to like whatever restaurant. We're go. It's like, I never know. And it's like, oh. We went to this place last time. And it was like. It was. Bomb. Whatever it was. We do like this. Yeah, I do. But I think. That's like every touring band. I mean, the ones that I've met, they all. Like the. Food.

41:14 It's like, you know, it's a joy that we get to hold on to. Yeah. Um, there's a couple voicemails to let me, uh, get these. Someone, a couple of people said, uh, this one just says Cajun guy. Let's see what this says. Sorry. Hold on. Uh. That's porn. Andy's porn. Collection coming. Out. Today. All right, here we go. Um. Hold on, let me find it. You guys get it, right? I talked to Cal, hung it on the chart, and I want a song on that thing with the Dead Whiskey.

41:58 And I thought, I ain't going to quit quest before you. I wanted to know maybe. How big it is. Your swing. How big is my. Big. Room? Who the fuck is that? That was the doe. That was. How big is my shrimp? Um. Come on, dude, I gotta see, I don't know. Normal. Normal. Let's give it up for normal, right? Right, guys? Normal. Normal. Gross. I mean, it's not crazy, but it's like normal size, I think. But I also don't look at everyone's penis. I saw Shawn. Well, all of it. You'd be looking at dicks. Oh, you mean look at that dick.

42:43 It was one of the questions. How big is your hog? How big is a big hog, don't you? Yeah. Um. This one. This one is from a fan. Let's see what this one said. Hi, world saving podcast. Hi, Nick.

Damn, that girl sounded like horny. Yeah, that was some red wine. That was some red wine. Hey, babe. What were we talking about the other day was sex position. Maybe she's had sex with you before, and she wants to know which one to do. No, no I I'll tell you what. Ever since I have talked about the shrimp, more women have come.

This is from a guy named Johnny Honesty. And I was just. I. I went out to your show with him. Yeah. Hi, this is Jonathan. I was just, I. I went out to your show with a couple of my, uh, guys from the Viking.

45:32 The Viking crew. We, uh, we don't really race. It's more of just an athletic group. But we were out at your show. I just didn't like it. I mean, like, a bit of it. Not nothing from the start to the sentence. I don't like the way you talk. And I like the way you sing. I think your drummer's, uh, just very, very scary, man. This is somebody, you know. Trying to fall in, and I don't like being this guy. This is not me. This is not normal, Jonathan. Uh, but, you know, I'll never see you again. That's definitely a joke. You better not come see us again. I beat his ass. I don't like the drummer. He's just a scary guy. Um.

46:13 Oh, here we go. Let's try this one. It's DC from the chicken box on Nantucket, Massachusetts. Two questions for you. Number one, what's the craziest thing you played? I know it's chicken box. Number two, you go back in time and. Resurrect. A singer, male or female, from the grave, and do a duet with him again on stage. Who would that be? Thanks, buddy. Loving. Embrace the pace. Oh, shit. Okay. Yeah, um. I think. Okay. Uh, what was the first question? What's the craziest venue? And he said, chicken box. He answered his own question with respect. But what's the second place then? No, but what's the what's what is. What is the craziest venue?

46:55 Always play. That was always just fucking batshit crazy. Oh, like just wild. I mean. Beachcombers fucking insane. Wild. Pretty wild. Nantucket. I mean, chicken boxes, chicken box. It's cool, but it doesn't get that wild. No no no no no. What was the wild? What are the wildest ones? Oh, I mean, I can't remember. We played so many fucking shit. If it's that wild, it's probably. If it's that wild, we're blacked out. We're blacked out. Yeah. I mean, what was the the the Jackson Hole or the moose or whatever. Oh, yeah. Oh, maybe we got we just got frog on stage. Oh, yeah. That was pretty. Oh, the, um, Cedar Rapids got pretty, pretty wild. Yeah, we're. It was like the night before Saint Patty's Day, and that was like, our first. Like. Car bomb. Olympic? Oh. Yeah. The Olympic was crazy.

47:36 The the the Pennsylvania one. The barbecue place. Backyard thing. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Car bombs. We did so many of those. Oh shout out car bombs. So yeah, a lot of different places. It's mostly all the beach town, beach towns. Crazy beach towns. You know why? Because they got the drinks are just flowing and the people by the beach are just a different breed. And also, they're also getting fucking hammered by 10 a.m. all day by six. The shows at eight, these guys are blacked out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's wild and it's like their vacation. So everyone's just like, yeah, you know, more loose, little lot more loose. Um. All right. This is librarian on there was there was another question he had. Oh yeah. He asked um, dead or alive, who would you want. To. Do a duet with.

48:17 Somebody. About a female artist? I would probably have to say, uh. Uh, Levon Helm. Oh, that's a good one. A good one or, um, girl wise, I'd probably say Etta James. That's great. What about. You guys? Answers. Um, I don't know. To James a great one. You had Etta James and Doctor John. Ooh. That'd be sick. What about, like, Donny Hathaway? That's. That's what I was gonna say. saying. I think Donny Hathaway would be the shit. Yeah. What about you, Sam? Awesome. Liberace. Chopin. Chopin. Uh. Beethoven. Beethoven. Uh, wait. I'm thinking I gotta go with, like, a saxophone player. You know, I mean, like, you probably gotta. You know, just to give the, like, vanilla answer, like John Coltrane or something. That'd be cool to be tight.

49:02 Um, I've always been more of a Sonny Rollins guy, so I don't know. Let's be a saxophone player in that suite. Yeah. For sure. What about. You? Oh, I'd love to. I'd love to. Play. Bass for. With John Bonham. I think that would be. Like, badass. Yeah. That's my. That's mine. Uh, what about you? Shit. I mean, I think Jimi Hendrix comes to mind. Just as, like, as a as a as a brain. Not Jimmy. Buffett. I mean, I like Jimmy Buffett. I'm just happy. I'm just like, oh, man. We're gonna get real. Yes! Jimmy. Yeah. Live on tour October. I'm not playing half the shows. Look at Harry cotton, Andrew Cooney. I'm kidding out. Here. I'm not his favorite artist.

49:44 Um, I mean, Donny Hathaway is a great one. Doctor John. Yeah. I was just, like somebody with the energy. Like Levon. Like, that's a great thing. Because, like, you just. You can pull so much off of them. Just like being around them. Not even just playing music like they're personalities and they. They ooze energy. Connor. Connor sent us the audio. Hey, Connor. Connor McAvoy. I saw Andy. And Dan today. What was your favorite moment at 420? Festival in April. And? And how much you love that show. All right. Thank you. Bye. Uh.

50:24 Thanks, Connor. We love. Connor is the best. Um, I think we love that show so much, because that was the first night Allie Krall joined our band. Oh. That's right. We did Devil Run Down to Georgia. Yeah. That was great. That was fun. Was that we had. We had some, like, struggles with, like, sound that night. Yeah, but we just like, pushed right through it. And yeah, I think reflecting on like after the show, we just like sent it. And I've had a few people come up to me and go like, man, the sound was so bad that day, but you guys just crushed it despite all that. And you guys put on such a good show. I agree. That was cool. That was really nice. Ooh, another one just popped in. Has anyone ever been arrested? Yes. Yes. I think we all have been arrested twice. Oh you haven't. Have you been arrested, rich?

51:07 No, we had a little bit. You've been arrested? I had a comment. Friend is police sticker on her car. Oh, no. No no no no. Well, next next next. Question. Okay, that's all right. I've been arrested twice. One in Kansas for half a gram of weed because we had the Dutch guys and I didn't want them to get deported. And I fucking took the heat on that. And then they fucking. A year later, they had a warrant out for my arrest. Were you in the band then? No. He's busy. Was I was there when you freaking got arrested in Europe last night. Oh, no. Kansas. I was talking to Kansas. I got arrested in Germany. I was there in Kansas. I went and I went and picked you up from the fucking. You were. He was behind the glass. Go get. Me. Out of here. Yeah. Take the bail. Pay the bail. I was like, I felt like I was singing to the bail bondsman like LA. Well, yeah. Then I got arrested in Germany for having weed in my blood, and they. It was basically a racket.

51:58 I was with Floyd. Floyd was, uh. If you want to listen to this whole episode, uh, where I tell you the whole story. Go back to Andy gets arrested in Germany. Um, I was with Nick. We did a whole episode on, but, um. Yeah, they made me take my blood. I was with I was in Germany. It was fucking scary. It felt like 1946 up in this motherfucker. Dude, it was just scary, dude. And then I had. And then, um, after I paid the. I had to pay some credit card and then stay in the prison, and then. Yeah, you guys were there. I was so pissed. And Floyd didn't get arrested because he just said, no, I'm not taking any of your tests. Yeah, but you also had weed on you, so you had to go pee in the cup in order to throw the weed that you had on you out in the bush.

52:38 That's so funny. I was like, well, I gotta go pee. And I threw all our weed out weed in the bush, and there really was a racket. It was a raccoon. But, you know. So shout out to Berlin. Whatever. Um, anyone else got arrested? I got arrested. Uh, my senior year in college. What'd you. Do? I was on my way to a Fleet Foxes concert. What a weird. Place to get arrested. I went. I well, I was in Bloomington, Indiana, where. The wrong. Shirt or something picked up. I picked up my buddy at Dayton, and we were driving to Chicago, and we were driving through, like, near Purdue in Indiana. Indiana. Tippecanoe county, Clinton County. And there was a car accident in front of me. And like, I slammed on my brakes to avoid the car accident.

53:21 I didn't hit the person in front of me. The person behind me hit my car, and I pulled over. And the cop like light, you know, long hair, stereo. Very stereotypical hippie looking kid. Yeah. And he's like. Made me cross the highway in my car. And he's like, I have the head of the canine unit with me and a drug dog, like, where's your weed? And I thought I was doing the right thing by being like, it's right here. Like it's only a little bit, you know, you like the guy that thought I was, like, trafficking pounds of marijuana? Yeah. Keep asking me questions about, like, you do this often? Yeah. You run shit back Chicago all the time, blah, blah. I was like, I literally have, like, enough for me and my buddy to take a hit before we go into the show. I was like, yeah.

54:03 And then he like, he tried to twist it and say that I was blaming my buddy, even though I took the heat the whole time, like I went to jail and he had ended up having to go to jail, too. Oh, it was like, you know, eight hours. And that did make me like, you know, bend over and cough and like. Oh, no shit. Opened your asshole at the Fleet Foxes concert? No, it was in the middle of Indiana. Like in the jail. Damn. So you didn't you didn't get to see the concert. But I still haven't seen him. Oh, let's make that happen. America, man. Yeah, let's get it. Um. Wow. Well, there you go, guys. That's, uh, most of the questions. Um, thank you guys for bringing all these questions. We have one more question before we do that question.

But next week, uh, we're playing the seventh. We're playing in Carlsbad, new Jersey. Um, I don't know where the fuck that is, but I think it's Long Island.

And the fourth, we're in Whitestown, Indiana. Every time I always say that it's. Right, right next to Brownsburg. Right? It is right next to Brownsburg. Bradford. It's so crazy. Second sign on the highway. It's Whitestone. Yeah. Hey, we should do a sign where all you guys stand on one side, and I sign on the other side. Oh, well, that was fun, guys. Thanks. Um. That's great. Thanks for all the questions we should do. We'll do this every couple of months. We get the band over here, we'll do some AMAs and whatnot. We learned a lot today. Um, we learned too much. A little too much. What size? My penis size is. What?

56:53 Uh, that, uh, Sam for sure got arrested and doesn't want to talk about horrible. I wanna hear it. All right? Yes, I want to hear it. Because my mom's gonna watch me. Like you gotta rest, and I gotta tell her this story. Yeah, we'll fucking say it. Speak up. No. It was. I mean, it wasn't a big deal. I, um, it was after I was at, like, a jazz jam in Durango, and, um, had, like, a couple beers. And then right before we left the jazz. Jazz. All right. You guys wouldn't understand, right? Uh, and so it was a buddy of mine. He was leaving. His mom was there, bought us a round of shots, and I then got in my car to go home, and, uh, I was parked in front of the venue, which is, you know, like rookie move and started going home and this cop started following me. Um, and I made it all the way to my house, which was like not even a mile away. Park.

57:37 I'm in front of my house, parked, and I'm getting my things out of the car. The car is already off and I start opening my door. And then the cop who was just sitting behind me this decided to put his lights on because he's like, oh well, he must be home. He comes up and makes me do like a breathalyzer, or he makes me do the whole, like, kind of like test. I'm in flip flops. I was about to get Lasik, so I was wearing glasses that were like, barely fit me and just like, didn't work very well and did this whole sobriety test thing. And he like, arrested me and made me go do a breathalyzer, which was broken in Durango. So he had to drive an hour while I'm handcuffed in the. Back of. A cop car to Ignacio, Colorado, to to use their breathalyzer machine. And by the time I got over there, I was like 0.01 or whatever, like the minuscule amount to be just over the little baby DUI amount that was just barely over that. And so I had to go to court and some, some like, you know, like lifer was like, oh, hey, make sure you get a public defender. As I was going up to kind of say my thing. And I did and I shout out to Mary Perreault, attorney at law. Thank you. Thanks, Mary.

58:40 Pia reviewed all the video footage and saw that the guy had. No reason to actually pull me over or arrest me or do any of the things, and then she straight up, she told me this because she was so proud. She was like, and then I told the prosecutor, she's like, we can take this to an actual jury trial. But have you you have you seen my client clean record? You want to do that? And he's like, cool, we can settle out of court. So I didn't get the DWI, nothing. I had to plead to, uh, my taillight being out, which it wasn't out, so whatever. But thank you. During a PD. Thank you. Fuck you. Do you drink a PD? Okay. Um. Damn. Your boy is still a good boy. Oh, boy, that was. I thought you were gonna say, like, I pulled my dick out in the movie. We fucking guns. It's like sounding fucking dirty little you little, nasty little TV. Herman. Okay. Here we go.

59:26 It was a massage parlor. It was a rate. One of those circle jerk parlors. There was a raid at the guitar. At the circle jerk. It was at a 4.7 rating on a. Andy showed it to me.

Uh, the last question, um, someone asks, I always ask everyone else they want to know. Ours.

1:00:12 What do you want to be remembered by, boys? I want to be remembered as. Uh, just a cool dude that played in a cool band with my cool homies. I fucking love that. Cool. What do you even want to be remembered by, Sam? Um, you guys are gonna be out. You're gonna laugh. But, you know, for being a nice guy. I love that. Well, you are a nice guy. I do remember that about you. But if you ever fucking half ass a fucking show against a fucking guy, you want to see a nice guy, I don't know. What about you, Richie? Give him the mic. I think I just. I just. Hope. That, uh. All my all the people that I. Meet, uh, think. Of me. As a reliable friend. Wow. That's good. I love this band right now. Is everyone just.

1:00:54 What do. You got? I'm gonna. I'm gonna change it a little bit. Okay? Although those things are important. I just want to be that guy who wrote that song, you know? It's everything. Babe. One person. I don't care what song it is. If it's a Christmas song, I'll be the guy that wrote grandpa. Grandma got run over by a reindeer. Yeah, but like, that's been my life goal to, like, write a song that, like, you know, made an impact. Well, let's get there, buddy. I'm ready for that. I am, and it'll be my goal to make sure that happens. And my dying wish. My God. I got you. What do I have? What do I want to be remembered by? The guy who couldn't get up on a whiskey dick night. Oh, no. No. Hey, big. Boy. I think you've already made it. Yeah. I think I made it. Uh, what I want. I just want to be remembered by someone. I don't care if we don't make it to the big, like, fucking stadium style, um, or fucking gigantic band.

1:01:44 Um, as long as we tried, it's all that mattered. We gave it our fucking 120% effort. I know we're going to be that super big band, but even if we didn't, I want to be the guy that was remembered by. At least he gave it his all. And I think, uh, and with all that being said, I hope you guys feel like I give you my all so we can all fucking do this, too. So we. Do. We absolutely. Do. Well, don't fuck it up tonight in Saint Louis. Okay, boys? Yeah. All right, guys, I love you. Thanks for listening. And, uh, we'll catch you next week, Nick. And later. Later. You sound.
