A mean, mean stride Today's Tom Sawyer Mean, mean pride
Well, that iconic song can only mean one thing. It's the Conan and Jordan Show. And I'm joined, of course, I'm Conan O'Brien. I think that shouldn't have to be said. And I'm joined by my enemy, my friend, my frenemy, a man I loathe, a man I love, Mr. Jordan Schlansky. Yes, hi. You've been in my employ for how many years now, Jordan? Decades. Okay. Nice.
And you bring up that iconic song, Tom Sawyer by Rush, that starts our show. I would like to point out that longtime listeners of our show may have noticed something a little different today in that our engineer Eduardo graciously played my preferred mastering of that song. This is not the readily available mastering that any fool would get on a streaming service these days. Any fool?
Okay, I have put a lot of time and money into seeking out the best version of all of my favorite music. I have bought probably 20 versions of that album on various media. Great. Well, better that than have your kids go to college. Yeah. These are hobbies. We all have our hobbies. OK. OK. These are benevolent pursuits. You spend your money on various hobbies.
I believe you have a collection of guitars.
Yeah. No, they were all given to me. I understand. Well, that's impressive. That's cool when you just know famous people that give you guitars. Yes. Well, we can all aspire to that. So this is a special cut to the chase. This is a what's different about this pressing of that song. OK. Like all of us, I like music.
Some say the language of music is older than the word language itself. Music is a great unifier, much like food. OK, when we all disagree on so many things, we all appreciate music. I go one step further. I like to have the best version of music to listen to. I like my music to sound as good as possible. Back in the 70s, when you were growing up, you might have called me a hi-fi guy.
OK, so for any given music, I'd have a different term for you now, but this goes out to families. So I'm not going to do it. So, again, I'm going to try and get you to the point rather than taking us to. Well, this is a radio show.
We talk. That is our that is our venture here. We are here to talk different about this. You interrupt my talking, but that's the whole point. What's different about this pressing? OK, there are many back in the day before things were standardized.
