Chapter 2: What led to the suspension of Alyssa Thomas in the WNBA?
It's not good. And McCartney sounds desperate there for some reason. Some reason. That's how we got into this music discussion because I'm thinking Dylan's 30. He doesn't know anything about music. He's ripping on Hey Jude, McCartney, the Beatles. He wears his Grateful Dead hoodie. And I'm like, do you know anything about music? And the more he speaks, the more I realize that he does not.
But he's putting Grateful Dead over Aerosmith, R.E.M., Eagles, Fleetwood Mac. I'm saying best American bands of all time. And then all of a sudden I go, you know what?
Chapter 3: What are the implications of Jalen Brown's potential trade?
Why don't we get a music ombudsman? Alan Hunter, Sirius XM host, 80s on 8, classic rewind and one of the original MTV VJs. Are you sure you want any part of this, Alan? Wow, I've never been called an ombudsman before, but I do love that terminology. I just love it. Okay, okay. Your thoughts on Hey Jude by the Beatles? Well, John Lennon wrote it, of course, about, you know,
or rather Paul McCartney wrote it about John's son, Julian, and then it morphed into Hey Jude. It's one of the great anthems of all time, and it doesn't even have to make sense. Like so many of their songs.
Chapter 4: How does the public perceive Alyssa Thomas's actions on the court?
Whoever said that, look, there are a lot of people who maybe don't realize that the Beatles are the greatest band ever, and they might be of the younger generation. But they certainly love the music once they hear it. I think, you know, when you talk about the Beatles, they think it's an old band from the 60s.
And Paul McCartney is out there acting like a 22-year-old kid with his new album and his new music. I mean, don't you wish that you could look and have the energy that he has at the age of 81 or 2, whatever he is? It's crazy. I just hope I'm alive by then, Alan. That's the standard. The bar is really low.
Well, people will say about people like Paul McCartney who look good and still can talk, well, if I had a billion dollars, I'd look good and be healthy as well. Well, he didn't make the billion by doing nothing. He made great music.
we talked about uh... the grateful dead dylan who's age thirty and he's a uh... deadhead and then i started thinking about uh... the mtv you were playing grateful dead videos i don't think when you guys first started their re-em got a lot of play yeah uh... erosmith got play uh... interestingly re-em did not get a whole lot of play i mean they came on you know early eighties nineteen eighty one with radio free europe which i saw on the david lederman show and they played live
And we were all like, wow, who is this band? But their first... I started playing them on an alternative show on MTV called 120 Minutes. It was around 86, 87. And we played Losing My Religion. I think that was the first... No, no, we played The One I Love. That would have been the first one that we played from them. But they had a number of years before they were...
commercially successful, and then it was into the 90s before they were internationally a huge alt-fan. Duran Duran got a lot of play. Well, Duran Duran is the poster boy band for the group. I mean, their first videos for Girls on Film were, to this day, some of the most salacious videos around.
That was a video, Girls on Film, that caught parents' hair on fire who thought MTV was truly the devil's playground. They saw the images on that first video. But, yeah, Duran Duran, U2, the Pretty Boys, the second wave, if you will, after the Beatles, after the Rolling Stones, the first wave from across the pond, came the new wavers.
And that was the predominant focus on MTV because they were the only ones, by the way, that were making videos. The greatest American band is who? Greatest American band. Well, R.E.M. would be one of them. It depends on if you're talking from the 80s or the 70s. You mentioned Aerosmith. I'd certainly say they're one of the great rockers.
You could throw down stadium rockers, arena rock like Journey. You know, the REO Speedwagons and the Styx were the journeyman live bands back in the 70s. They were the ones, by the way, who had the hardest time embracing the new era of the video. The American rockers of the 70s who played big stadiums and put out albums had a hard adjustment period in the early 80s.
