Episode 308 - The 10cc Show

No, actually, Chris and Justin come in at like three quarters on the meter, and you come in just less than half.

Okay. This is good for the audience. I don't appreciate it. Why do you have a picture of Justin? Oh, whoa. That's wrong. That's a lot of disrespect going on right there, man. Oh, my God. Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Motorcycle Man Podcast, starting off on a wonderful foot today. I am Ted. That's a lead-in, huh? Yeah, that's actually a lead-in. I am Ted, your host, here on the podcast. This is episode 308.

And we're here in the wonderful V2N Cafe where the weather's been absolutely gorgeous the past couple days if you're in North Carolina. And joining me here in the corner booth, as always, is Brother Tim. Hello. Hello. And, of course, we also have Chris Joker nipples, dude. See, now, if you had the sound effects working, you could have done that. I could have. What are we, three? And, of course, as always, we also have a good friend, all the way from not Bergen Harley-Davidson, Justin. How you doing, guys? How's the weather up there in lovely Cranford? Aside from the fact that it's raining, it's actually pretty warm. Yeah, it is. It's going to be 66 tomorrow, and then it's going to go right back to...

It's like 50 now, though. Oh, that's not bad. Yeah, it's warm right now. That's not bad at all. No, not at all. I won't tell you that we hit 74 today. How would you know? You're inside all day. I do have a thermometer here. I can see what the temperature is. Matter of fact, it's 58 degrees right now here. It's 67 here right now.

It's beautiful. I can't complain. Is it raining by you or no? No, no. It's a little overcast. The skies are a little threatening. They point at you and go, we're going to rain! And they really don't. They wag the finger at us. So have you guys been doing any riding?

Nope. Yeah, actually, I went out a couple times this week. Oh, really? Just local, though. I was last week. Oh, you did? Yeah. Just quick. You found your bike? Your bike started? It did, I know. I was like, thank God. Wow. It was one of those things where I was like, I was like, fingers crossed, and everything was cool. But yeah, it was a nice night out. Hi, Danielle. Hi, Danielle. Say hi, Danielle. Hi, guys. Hi.

Cool, where'd you go, Justin? Any special fun? No, we just stayed local. It was really just more of an excuse to get out because it was super nice. Oh, good. And Chris, where'd you go? You were just local also? Yeah, I was just riding my local because it wasn't all that grayed out. No, okay. Tim, where'd you go? 50 degrees out when you ride, it feels like it's 40. Yeah, yeah, this is true. Where'd you go, Tim? Where'd I go? I went out for the first time this week, today or yesterday.

You went out for the first time? What the hell have you been doing? I've been working at my house. What am I going to do? I'm trying to get my house ready for sale. Is it on the market yet? Yeah, sure. Okay. Somebody buy Tim's house. Yes. $39.95. I'm going to put it on a trailer and bring it down to South Carolina because there's nothing for sale down there. That's not true. There's houses down here for sale. You know, if you had the money, there's companies that will do that. Yeah, I know. They can actually take a house off with the foundation and actually fucking move it. Yeah, I know. You might as well just have a house built for the cost of it.

cost to do that. They did that with a house, I remember, a number of years from Westfield, and they moved it over to the other side in Mountainside of 22. Oh, I know what you're talking about. Yeah, you know what house? They took the whole fucking foundation of the whole house and moved it. No shit. Yeah, fucking amazing that a construction company. And they moved it into Mountainside? Yeah, on a big corner part of the Mountainside, right on the other side of 22. That's nothing but hills over there. Well, they found a flat land. It's like on the bottom of the mountain. No shit. Holy crap. Pretty remarkable that, because the house was not small.

Wow. I think that was the whole point. I don't remember the details, but wasn't it like a preservation thing? Yes, it was a preservation thing. Wow, no kidding. Did they really?

Yeah, there was a house right on the corner of the boulevard and Orange Avenue, and they brought it down the street. No kidding. That's just remarkable that they can move a house like that. I would love to witness that happening. You've got to see how they started, because I saw the beginning of it, because I used to ride by there, and they started from the basement, and then they just started putting little spacers. Yeah, and slowly pushing the house up. Yeah, they jack it up. Yeah, exactly. It's the same way that they level a house if it needs to be leveled.

The difference is they keep going and then eventually they shove a truck under it. That's so bizarre to see that. Yeah, it is fucking remarkable. I've seen it happen on TV. What I did not see is the size of the truck to move a fucking house that big.

Can you imagine? That must have been a real big fucking house. Yeah, but then there's all the electrical lines and shit that they've got to move to. Yeah, that's the one thing I would love to talk to them about. Like, what did they do? Just cut them and re-put them back in when they... Yeah, well, they take them down, you know. Well, you got plumbing and electric. No, no, no, there's no plumbing overhead, Chris. Well, what if they have a bathroom on the second floor? Oh, oh, oh, oh, you're talking about in the house. No, I'm talking about electric. They're talking about power lines. I'm talking about power lines and shit. Oh, yeah, yeah. But yeah, anything in the house, they just basically clip it. That's basically what they do.

That's so cool. I would love to see that, though. But if you're going to move your house, Tim, that'd be great. You know what? If I hit the Mega Millions, just for a goof, I'm going to have your house moved all the way down. Just for a goof, you have to move his house, but don't tell him where it gets moved. And then on the next few podcasts, we'll do a segment called Where Tim's House? Oh, hey, being I never leave it, I'm probably going to go with it. We could do one of those hot and cold things. Oh, you're getting warm. Oh, you're getting cold again. I'm going to start flacking.

Drop trackers all over your house. That'd be funny. That'd be funny, because if you move your house, you can sell just property in Cranford. That's a rarity. Yeah, right? Yeah, yeah, sure. You can probably make good money with that. You can still probably get $200 just for the vacant land. It comes with a foundation and a dick. You know what you could do if you really wanted to? You just have your house rebuilt. You know, it's built an exact replica of your house.

The funny thing is, I said that to Diane. I said, if we could just take this house and move it down there, it'd be exactly what we're looking for. Exactly. Well, you know, when we moved... It doesn't change anything. No, so when Deb and I were first looking, I said, I don't want to get anything less than what we already have. Right. You know, because then you're not going to be comfortable or happy or anything. Would you say your house is bigger now or smaller? It's only like 40 square feet bigger.

It's just arranged differently. So I'm very happy with it. Plus, I got a garage. That's a freaking bonus, man. And I got a shit ton of work with it. So nothing's changed. I've been out for a couple of rides, but before I get into that, I had a wonderful interview with author Graham Field on Sunday, and we talked for almost two hours. We talked about his two books, Nirvana and Not Working. He moved over to Bulgaria, and he's been all over the world on his motorcycle traveling around. So we had a nice little chit-chat. So if you get a chance to listen to that interview and buy his books. Hey, Tim, real quick.

$200,000 to move your house. Yeah, how far, though? Yeah, 35 feet. All right, down the street. They've got to move wires. They've got to move all kinds of shit, and they've got to map it out, and then they've got to get traffic involved. That's why it would cost $200,000, because there's no limit.

However, it's going to take at least two months. Oh, it'll take way longer. Because remember now, if he's coming down here with his house, it sounds funny to say that. You're coming down here, I'm bringing my house. You've got overpasses to deal with, you've got bridges. Well, I was just reading just a little bit, the company that would do it, their preparation lays out everything from prepping the house to proper routing to whatever new location you make. It would actually be easier to take my house and bring it to a boat. Yeah, and boat it down. Yeah, because I'm right here on the freaking river, Andy. Just bring your boat right up the river.

If you wait another two months, it might float away. There you go. There you go. Raise it up. It'd be moving on a boat, and it'd be a bad storm, and your house would flood again out in the ocean. Then when you move the house, it's flooded. Dude, raise it up and put it on pontoons. That's all. There you go. Oh, shit. If you do that, I'd just stay out of the fucking house. Yeah, then what you do is then you come down to Intercoastal Waterway. You never have to go out in the ocean, and you just tool along. You got nothing with bridges all open for you. That'd be great, man. Yeah, wonderful. Yeah, that'd be awesome. Shit.

I don't know. Who's the asshole closing a bridge? That's my brother and wife. Will your house fit down the Routon River? No.

That'd be hilarious. Oh, my God. I have to draw a picture of that. Your house as a boat. That'd be funny. So I went out for some rides last week. Actually, I went out on Saturday, and then I went out the last Saturday. I did 124 miles last Saturday. Nice. I'm sorry. Did I say 125? 124 miles. And then this past Sunday, I did 115. Damn. The most I did this past week was 68 miles. That's not bad. That's pretty good. And I'll tell you what. It's an interesting thing about the roads down here. Once you get away.

I mean, I say traffic, and it's so funny. It's hilarious. Give you an idea what the traffic is like, imagine Cranford at like 6 o'clock in the morning on a Sunday. And that's the daily traffic we have here. Yeah, so that's the way I started my Saturday. And I was on roads. It's one of those get lost rides where you don't know where you are. And that's kind of what I had on that day. I had no clue where I was. And, man, great ride. That seems to be a common theme for you. I like that, though. I mean, who doesn't like that? You go out there and have no idea where you are. No, I'm with you. You find the cool route that way. Oh, yeah, dude. I've seen some really cool stuff. The roads were just really, really sweet. Getting lost on a bike is the best. Yeah, man. Oh, my God. It was just a lot of fun. You know, it's just after a while you get out there and you go like, hmm, maybe I need gas. And then, you know, you hope you find something. But what's cool is, you know, down here I have access to the...

to the non-ethanol fuel, which is really, really great. It's such a beautiful thing. Anyway, so it's been a lot of fun. I went down to South Carolina, came back up this way. This past weekend, I went into a couple of the local short communities and towns up towards Wilmington, not that way. A lot of cool little towns and stuff, so a lot of cool stuff. So Tim, when you come down here, Chris, when you guys come down here, have a lot of fun. Yeah, we'll get out and all that. I use the Harley-Davidson ride app. You're right there, 50s. I got a phlegm ball. He's got a phlegm ball. I thought he was going to fucking die in a fucking podcast. Phlegm ball. Coffing up a lung biscuit. Got to find like a harness in your background.

Put like the pandemic and zombies coming at him. If only they made a mute button on these Google Meet things that, you know what I mean? That'd be an interesting concept. What are you suggesting, Justin? There you go. That you don't want to hear Tim cough up a flimble? So I was using the Harley-Davidson ride app. Now, it's always been good. I always enjoyed it. That still gets me, man. For so long, you were like, reverber, reverber, reverber. I know. Reverber, reverber, reverber. I get reverber, then you fucking go to Harley-Davidson. But here's the deal. I got very annoyed with the Harley-Davidson ride app this past weekend. And even last weekend, it annoyed me. Because on my ride, it shut down three times.

And every time it shuts down, it saves the ride. It doesn't continue the ride. So instead of having one long 124-mile ride, I've got two short rides. Well, at least it saves it. It did, but it's kind of annoying. It hasn't happened to me in a while, but Rever, if it bugs out, it shuts fucking off. It doesn't save shit. Well, that's a bad part. So, like, if I'm going to somewhere new and I put Rever on, it completely didn't save anything. No, I apologize. Well, I was out Sunday, and it shut down on me three times, but it saved three little short rides. So it's kind of annoying, so I don't know. I'm considering going back to Rever again, and we'll see what happens.

Do you record every single rod you do? Yeah, every day. All the time. And the other annoyance that I had was I had to put air in my tire, and I couldn't find a freaking place that had free air. What the shit is with this paying for air? You don't have a compressor? I just bought one, actually. This past weekend I just bought one, but it's not set up. But the thing is, I think it's stupid that you have to pay for air. Set up? What do you got to do? Plug it in? Well, no. Smarty pants. Plug an air compressor. What do you mean, set up? You got to build it first? In a way, yeah, because I got to put the fittings on the end of the hoses. I don't have the fittings on the end of the hoses.

I got to do that, and I haven't done that. Well, no, it's not. It's just I got to freaking do it, you know? It's one time you have to do it. I know, but I didn't. And I'm out riding. I needed air when I was riding. Too bad. Do you have a lot of quick checks down here or no? No, there's no quick checks down here at all. Really? Not yet, huh? No. What's their convenience store? We got... Buckies? No. We have Circle K. Circle K is one of them. Go Gas. Yes, Go Gas. That's it. Just Go Gas. Do they have Ices down there?

I haven't seen a 7-Eleven anywhere. Oh, my God. How am I going to get my IC? You know, honestly, I haven't. You know what? Now you got me going. I'm looking it up right now. You're looking it up and see if there's any in my area. I don't know. I don't know if there is. There might be one maybe down towards the ocean. I don't know. Or a Wilmington might have it. Yeah, but you do want to drive 40 minutes to get an IC, yeah? Oh. You don't have to make things difficult. Oh, that's not me. Oh, okay. Down in North Carolina, you got Friendly Mart, Stop and Go. Walgreens has a special place in the Common Market and Speedy Sundry.

No 7-Elevens down there at all? Oh, yeah, and 7-Elevens is number one on the list. Oh, really? But 7-Eleven never has free air. QuickCheck has free air. Yeah, that I know, but I can't find. I just can't find any of them anywhere. You have free air. I know. Now I do. Now I do. Let me see. 7-Eleven. I'm thinking 7-Elevens for Tim's Icy Fix. You got a KFC right around the corner? The KFC is right here. I got a KFC right here. That's not a big deal. Now, the nearest 7-Eleven is down in... Oh, shit. You're kidding me.

The near 7-Eleven is in Myrtle Beach. Of course. That's where we're going to make all their money. Yeah. They'd make money around here, too, if there was a freaking 7-Eleven. There you go. Let's do a franchise. Yeah, with your money. We'll take Justin's money. There you go. There you go. You could be the 7-Eleven guy down there. No. I mean, ideally, that's a great franchise to have. Hey, today is National Supermarket Employee Day. So, an applause to Diane. And it's also National California Day. So, yeah, it's National California Day.

Isn't that like a little bit like, I mean, when you break down that statement, you have national and then a state day. Like a little weird, right? Somebody felt that every state should have a national day. So apparently today is National California Day. Which is the first time you've ever mentioned the states. Well, no, no, we did the other states already. I have to go back through it and I'll point it out to you. California. Yeah. So now today is also National Cook a Sweet Potato Day. Right. And it's also National Margarita Day.

Do you guys like sweet potatoes the way they are, or do you like them mushed up? No, you cook them like a regular potato, and then you cut it open, you slap some butter in it, and then you cut it up. Justin? I prefer mine in the form of a margarita. No, actually, I eat a ton of sweet potatoes, so I eat them a number of different ways. I'll eat them, like he said. I'll eat them, you know, like where you can make a sweet potato pie. I'll eat them sweet potato fries.

You don't even like them? What? Sweet potatoes? Yeah. Matter of fact, I'm going to have them tonight after I'm done here. I'm cooking. It's fitting for the holiday. As soon as you land that ship you're in. I'm cooking barbecue ribs and I have sweet potato potatoes. Sweet potato potatoes. Potatoes on potatoes. All right. Do you know what food line is, Ted? Yeah. We have a food line right around the corner from our house. ABC store? Yeah. Belk? Yep.

Apparently, these stores have air. Oh, really? Food Lion? Right in Charlotte, North Carolina. Food Lion? Has free air? What aisle would that be in? That's the search I did. Okay, that's all. So it's got to be outside. Excuse me, what aisle is it? Air compressor? They might have like a gas station or something. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Well, this one does not. It's just a food store. Well, then check the other three. Oh, check it out. That's pretty interesting. Okay. And today is also national. Well, I shouldn't say national. It's World Spay Day.

So if you're going to spay your animal or your partner or your boyfriend or girlfriend, now's your time. So anyways, you've got to wait for a special day to do it. Apparently, I guess. Hey, the international show, there's a cat behind you. Watch out, Justin. He's going to pounce on you. Watch out, Justin. Watch out. You know what that son of a bitch did the other day? You're going to tell us? He bit my head.

Why? So, he's never done this before, but you see how he's like up on the back of the couch right now? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was leaned back, and I just got out of the shower, right? And he comes over, and he's like sniffing my hair, and I'm thinking like, you know, he must be like, you know, because of the shampoo or whatever. Yeah. And he's like sniffing and sniffing, and then all of a sudden, I just feel him like bite my fucking head, and I'm like, what the fuck?

I was like, what the fuck are you doing, man? And he's looking at me like, what? He's never done that before. You know what it is? I bet you the attendant went with the shampoo, took your smell away from him. He didn't recognize you. Now, what cat is that? Who's that? That's Norman. That's Norman. See, cats are cool. That's what I like about cats. You never know what the fuck you're going to do. That's awesome. Justin looks thrilled. The International Show Show, International Motorcycle Show, IMSS, they've announced their dates and locations for 2022.

Let me guess, they're all in cold weather. Coldest days. Fucking idiots. I still can't believe they won't put them in a spring or summer time. Well, as you can see here on the screen right now, they're in Colorado and Chicago. Oh, New York. See, that's about September 23rd. And they changed the location to Nassau Coliseum. Wow. Yeah, it's a great place, but getting there, forget it. Yeah, it's a fucking nightmare. Won't even freaking do it. California has two dates, as always, because apparently they favor California. Northern California and Southern California. And Arizona and Atlanta. So they're kicking it off in Colorado on June 17th at the ranch in Loveland, Colorado. What's that? What is the...

IMS directed towards? Who's the clientele directing that towards? The general public. Is it for the general public or is it for corporate? No, no, no. You've been to the show. No, no. I know exactly what it is. I'm just saying, who's it directed towards? The public. Yeah, but if that's the case, why would you put it in New York City where we could put it someplace else that would make more sense? I mean, New York gets a lot of people, but if anybody wants to go to the show, they're going to go...

to a better location, I think. Yeah, that's a matter of, I see what you're getting at, the convenience aspect of it. Right. I think a lot of people, I think they were looking for a different venue. This is pure speculation, but I feel like they've been looking for a different venue in regards to like getting out of the Javits Center because if you've noticed over the past, I'm going to say 10 years, it used to be huge.

and it got smaller and smaller and smaller, and you were losing major vendors, my assumption is, because of what it costs to go. Yeah, it was the location, and I think it's cost and location. Well, right, and so, well, the location was fine, I mean, you know, but it was probably just getting too financially... It was a financial burden. And I think, you know, if they can get into somewhere else like National Coliseum, maybe offering just way better price points, you know, to where they said, like, look, it's if we want to have it be a real show again. Yes. You know, I mean, there was major brands that weren't showing up anymore. Oh, yeah, I know. I know. See, now the thing is what they've changed ever since COVID happened. All of these locations, they're all outdoor now. All of them are outdoor. So.

It's more appealing to the family environment. So, well, I guess with the exception of Chicago, you know, they're having an apparently, well, they call it Chicago. It's actually a farm at Henry Grove, Illinois. Then you're going to the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Pennsylvania on September 16th and 18th. There's a lot of time in between these shows. You know, June, there's two in June.

They're not close together either in Pennsylvania and in New York, September 23rd to 25th at Nassau Calcium. Then they're going to Atlanta. They still haven't decided where they're going to do that. So why would you, that's September 30th. Why would you say we're going to go to Atlanta, but we don't know where? You know, I would love, you know, Justin brought up a good point. Just to know, I'd like to know how much money they lost over the past 10 years because their show's getting smaller. And maybe like he's talking about, location is crap.

I don't know that they've lost money. Yeah, they had to. I mean, if you're making a show smaller, then that means you lost money the previous year, maybe a couple years. They're like, okay, we've got to make this show smaller because we're fucking bleeding fucking funds here. Well, maybe they're just, I'm sure they've probably increased the cost for the spaces that the vendors want to use. Well, I think it's twofold, yeah. Yeah, there's that. And then in California, October 21st to the 23rd, they're going to be at the event center in San Mateo, California, Northern California. Then they're going down to Arizona again. Again, it's a Westworld of Scottsdale. They're going to Westworld, Tim.

That's October 28th to the 30th. And then they're going to Southern California at the, I guess, Orange County Fair and Event Center in Costa Mesa, California, November 4th to the 6th. So, I won't be going to any of these shows. Because they're not North Carolina. Because, frankly, the closest one to me would be... Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania. I believe it or not, I think Atlanta's closer. Yeah, Atlanta would be way closer. I think Atlanta's closer. Oh, that's right, yeah, Atlanta. I'm sorry, I still got that northern brain on. Yeah, and you will until you move down here. Atlanta's a cool small city. Well, you've been there, Chris. I've been there. Yeah.

That's where I did the Star Wars thing. The Star Wars thing? The VR thing. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's right. And I'll close this out. I can stop showing. Okay.

Let me see what time we got here. We got another 15 minutes, and then we're going to have our guest come in. We have a guest going to join us today for the contest, for our quiz, the motorcycle mental test. I better start drinking now. I better start drinking now, Justin. But before we do that, just want to make a couple announcements. The first one is that next, let me see, on March 3rd, which is next Thursday, correct? March 3rd? Yep. March 3rd is the... No, just Friday, isn't it? No. Next Thursday. Next Thursday. It is the motorcycle men's 7th anniversary.

Wow, seven years. Seven years. Can you believe it? Oh, my God. Seven years. So is that National Motorcycle Men Day? That will be, yes. How do we make a national day? I will have to submit that to the national days calendar people, and that's what we want. So I'll do that. I wonder if that's like a, it has to be.

With the amount of days that he's already told us about that are dumb as shit, they probably just make sure there's no profanity in it and they greenlight it. Well, then that counts us out completely, right? It's not in a name. Yeah, I think Justin's right. Some of the fucking days are so stupid. Oh, that's just tremendously stupid. There's no way there's a committee. Fucking, you know, national fucking hot dog fucking or titty day.

Is there a fucking National Nipple Day? You know, I'm not saying that there isn't. I'm not saying that there isn't. He's going to look it up. We can get into the best and worst motorcycle names, which I have here. Or we can get it to Tim's next bike. Oh, yeah. I forgot. There's National Free the Nipple Day. Oh, well, there you go. See?

Jay, what day is that? What day is that? If they don't okay motorcycle men, then fuck them. I can't even imagine what your browser history looks like. You'd be surprised. Not as bad as you think. I'm pretty fucking boring in my old age. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know about that. I know you're probably dabbling in the dark web.

Oh, yeah, but I go, I look for like, you know, I like the conspiracy YouTube stuff on like lizard people and fucking, that shit cracks me up. Let's get into that. There's already a bazillion. Yeah, fun stuff. There's one, I can't remember the name of it. It's real fun. They talk about all that wacky shit. Oh, that's awesome. Real quickly, let's go through just the best and worst motorcycle names and then we're going to do Tim's next bike.

Best and worst motorcycle names. Share your screen when you do this. I am going to do that. I just want to make sure I want to get to the list first. Okay, here we go. We did this last week, didn't we? No, no, no. Last week we did the... What was it? Ugliest Mike. 10 best motorcycle names of all time. From BSA, they have the Thunderbolt. Let me try and make this bigger so you guys can see it.

They have the Thunderbolt from BSA, the Venom from Velocet, Spitfire from BSA, Interceptor, which was used by Honda and Royal Enfield and probably a dozen others, the Thunderbird from Triumph, Black Lightning from Vincent, the Lightning from BSA and Buell, the X-75 Hurricane from Triumph, and Muck 1, 2, 3, 4 from Kawasaki and Ducati, and Commando from Norton. I got a question. I have an answer. Why is X-75, like, why is that the... I don't know. I think that's the dumbest thing ever. If you take the X-75 and call it the Hurricane, that's okay. Exactly, right? Because it sounds like something... I'm sure everybody just calls it the Hurricane and not the X-75. You know what that reminds me of X-75? What was that animated show where it was just dolls and it was like America Fuck Yeah type thing? What was that? Oh, that was Thunderbirds. Thunderbirds, right. See, when I read X-75, that's the first thing that pops into my head. Thunderbirds.

I don't know. You have two names on here that are remotely okay. Spitfire and Venom. Yeah. I'm cool with Thunderbird. Mach 1. They steal it from Ford. That's great. Now the honorable mention names are Ninja, Silverhawk, Victor441, Superglide. Really?

Bonneville. Oh, Harley's on there. Bonneville. Rocket 3. The Katana. Super Hulk. Road King. Avenger. Trident. Intruder. Why did this name every bike ever made? I mean, really. I mean, come on. This is stupid. Now the ten worst names. The Pixie by Ariel. Regina Columbus from Horrocks. I've never heard of Horrocks. But the Flying Merkle. I like the Flying Merkle better than the X-75. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, yeah. I'll take that one. I like the Squirrel. And the Mancunian.

And Stroud from Panther. Elephant from Kegiva. Meteor Miner from Royal Enfield. Scat. A Harley-Davidson Scat. That's like from back in the 60s, I believe. Yeah, or 50s. And the Dragonfly from a company called Douglas. So that's the best and worst names. I will put a link to this. You should have made it like a ball sack carrier. Ball sack carrier? I don't know about that. That's good. Okay, I'll tell you what. Can we do some binet?

I have no music for you, though. I'm going to go grab some food and shove it in my mouth. Why don't you have to bend it? Well, that's right, yeah, because you can't do it because it'll just keep cutting out. That's right. Cutting out, and it's not working right now. I mean, I could try. Let's see what happens. But it wasn't working right last night. You could just probably put it in, right? I can, but, you know, I won't. Unless if I have it. Hold it. Wait a minute. Maybe I got it. I could probably do it. I think. It's weird. There it is. That worked. I heard that. Not all the sounds are working, though. That's the weird thing.

Justin, you said it was the dancing dude, right? Yeah. Party guy. Party guy. I'm pressing it. Nothing happening. Oh, party guy's not working for you? Nope. That's a shame. See, I get the one above it works, but not that one. That's weird. Yeah, I know. Why would it work sometimes and not all the time? We can't go a single episode. No, no, absolutely not. No. It's fucking incredible. Isn't that part of our allure? That is very much part of our allure. Seven years and 308 episodes, and we still don't have this shit figured out.

Well, it's not just that. We don't all have the same shit. That's part of the problem. We all don't have the same equipment. We've got to be careful because the day we have a perfect episode, we'll end up being our last one. Yeah, something's going to happen. I just had it. Hold on. I just had it. Shit. I think I do have it. Hold on a second. I know our listeners find this so fascinating. You think? Yeah, I'm riveted. No, come on.

I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. We still haven't done business because it's a classic Motorcycle Man technology break. Oh, I see what happened. Okay. What? Nothing happened. Yeah, that's a problem. It was right here, son of a bitch. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold it here. Here we go, Tim. Can you guys hear the sounds? No. Oh, you can't hear them? What the point? If you can't hear the sounds that I'm doing, okay.

Now we're buying Tim a bike, right? Now we're buying Tim a bike. And because I want you guys... How's that GoFundMe going? You know, we tried the GoFundMe once before. We're up to 83 cents. And up first... That's nice. Is this lovely bike? Is that an 82?

That's pretty. Actually, it is a 2005 Harley Davidson Deluxe. It's down here in Little River, Tim, so you don't have to come down here and get it. That's pretty. Got the fishtail pipes on it, which I really like. I like fishtail pipes. This is the closest that I could get to a little pony bike.

I tried, bro. It's not my thing, though. How many miles are on it? 31,000 miles. No, it's 2005, so what's the deal? It's 2005. There we go. And next is a 2000 Fatboy. 2000? 2000. Oh, that's got an Evo on it, doesn't it? No, no, that's still the TwinCam. That's still the TwinCam 88. Nope.

They were 98 through, correct me if I'm wrong, 98 through 2005. Correct, Justin? And then he went to the 96. The 20 game 96. See, I said last time what I was expecting. You're not showing. I'm showing you flamboyance. That's what I'm showing you. Okay. It doesn't matter what I want. No, it doesn't matter what you want. And this bike is for $69.95 down here in Little River, South Carolina. That's a lot of fucking money. For 31K. $19.99.

1999. Really? I think each one of you should take a bike and display it on us. Okay, we can do that. And also, a 2002 CVO Road King. Wow, that's nice. See? This is a 2000, what did I say? 2002. Same year as my bike. For 10K. And it's only got 38,000 miles on it? Wow. 36,000 miles on it.

That's a lot. Okay, he added some stuff to it. He added some extra bags to it. That doesn't mean anything. But it's also the CBO, so that's why he's saying he's going to get that kind of money. His bike is as old as mine, and my bike's got 65,000 miles on it. Yeah. And finally, a 2016 Heritage, and I think this is going to be Tim's next bike. That is beautified.

And for $16,500. Yeah, because it's only got 4,000 miles on it. And this has got a 103 in it. Oh, nice. How much is it? $16,500. Seems much to me. Not really. Justin, what do you think? A little high. You can get a Milwaukee 8 now for pretty close to that. Yeah, exactly. And here's the thing. It's only got 4,000 miles on it.

So in six years... Of the four or five you picked, this is the best one. Yeah. So this has only got the... It's six years old and only 4,000 miles. So he's done less than 1,000 miles a year on this thing. Oh, yeah? I'll put less miles on it. Well, that's not... I don't know how that's possible. Because you only drove a mile to work. All right. So we'll try. We'll keep trying. We'll find something for you. When I move down there, hopefully I'll get a bike and we can start cruising. Yeah. I hope so. All right.

We've got some events coming up. We've got Daytona Bike Week. It's happening March 4th through the 13th. That's coming up. Arizona Bike Week, for those who want to go out there, is April 6th to the 10th. The Outer Banks Bike Week. Sounds like a lot of fun. It's April 16th to the 24th. That's a couple hours from here, but it sounds like a lot of fun. Myrtle Beach Bike Week is happening May 13th through the 22nd. Rolling Thunder, Ride for Freedom, is happening on May 29th. Check with your local chapter and just see where they're doing the ride because they're doing it differently this year compared to last year. June 20th is Ride Your Motorcycle Workday. And then on June 22nd, 24th, we've got Mid-Ohio Vintage Days. August 5th through the 14th, we've got Sturgis.

September 30th to October 2nd is the Void Rally. If you guys want to get into a rally, that's a shit ton of fun. I haven't done it yet, but I'm going to. And then October 7th to the 9th, we've got Barber Vintage Festival. That's happening. And we're going to... And that's about it for events. Anybody got anything else you want to bring up? I want to question you. How many... What state has the most RV dealers? Oh, shit. Oh, my God. That's a good question. I'll find out right now. I would believe California. You think so? California or Florida. That's the most RV. I would guess. Well, 30 has quite a few, doesn't it? It's like six.

It's a six, really? Yeah, well, they closed that one up in Hope, New Jersey. They closed that one. That's gone. I think there's five in Jersey. Barbs is in New Jersey, then you've got Atlantic City, Ocean County, Shoreline, Liberty, Williams, seven. That's it. Williams, Liberty. Yeah. You said Williams, you didn't say Liberty. I did. I just said what I said. Let me see here. Oh, no, this is...

States with the biggest population of bikes. Here's what you're going to do, Ted, is you're going to do a comparison. What dealer has the most bikes in what state? You know what I'm saying? What most stores in what state? Yeah. You know, I thought I did that once before. I thought I did that. No, you didn't. All right. So that's a thing. I'll do that for next podcast. People want to know. I can hear them clamoring. People want to know. Damn it. And you're not coming up with the information. The phone lines are blowing up. Hey, you know, oh, by the way, by the way, speak of this. By the way, California sells the most Harley Davidson's.

Florida is second. New York is third. Ohio is fourth. Really? Ohio. Wow. How about that? Let me see here. New Jersey is not even on the list. California, Florida, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania is fifth. You've got to remember that New York is not just New York City. Yeah, right. Montana, Texas is... See, I would expect Texas to be up there on top. Texas is seventh on the list. I would expect them to be further up on that. Well, you know what? Here's the other difference that you've got to consider. What's that? This is the amount of bikes sold. Yeah. So...

places like texas guys keep their bikes they ride the shit out of them but they keep them longer yeah i was talking i was talking to one of the guys out there that was saying like when they get trade-ins on these bikes that have you know 30 40 000 miles they look at that as low mileage whereas around here it's like once a bike hits like 20 000 miles guys are like i don't want to touch it you know what i mean it's like it's a totally different mindset so it's that skews things a little bit too right i hear you i get it so i want to tell you guys i reached out and sent an email to uh the south sandwich islands people okay i haven't heard back from them But I did mention that we talk about them nearly every episode, and we've made it pretty much our thing. And you told them that because they keep showing up on... Yes, I told them that we have a listener somewhere in the South Sandwich Islands. So now we're going to get a cease and desist letter. That would be fucking hysterical. Stop talking about us. Well, then, you know, we're just going to keep doing it. So, anyway, if you guys are ready... There's only 700 dealers in the U.S.

But, you know, if you read that, Chris, I think it says that's like even places that just sell like Harley. Well, Ted, didn't you go to a place that was just a clothes store? Yeah, down in Myrtle Beach at the Broadway at the Beach. It's a mall and they have a Harley store. In fact, down in Key West on Deval Street, they have a Harley store, but it's all clothing. They have no bikes there. Those are retail locations that are part of a dealership that has.

actual bikes it's just they don't have them in every location right so like so like for example like say like railway wanted to put a retail location in like in like a little shop in newark airport they could do that you know what i'm saying but like it would still they're not gonna have motorcycles there obviously but they could sell all the stuff going to the guidelines oh justin was right i found it uh the state with the most harley dealers is california 49 locations seven percent of all harley davidson locations in america yeah Wow, 49 locations. See, we come up with the information. Hey, look who's here. Joining us now all the way from Zimbabwe is, no, I'm just kidding. He's also here from North Carolina, our good friend, Rich Warfield of the former Loud Pipes podcast. Rich, how are you doing, sir? Hi, Rich. Can you hear us? Can you hear us? We can't hear you. We can't hear you. We can't hear you. Okay, it's going to be, okay, Rich is going to mime for us the rest of the show. Rich is having technical difficulties.

It's all Ted's fault. Yeah, that's it. It's all my fault because Rich doesn't have sound. That's good. Damn, you guys are on. Hey, Rich, can you hear us? Yes. Hold on. A little microphone and a slash thing showed up on his screen. Is it muted? Rich, check your Google Meet and see if it's muted. It's not muted. It's not the first time he's done this. Yeah, I know. Do I have to call you back? Is that what I got to do? No. No, no.

It's a clip reader show. So we're going to kind of guess what he's saying. He's got to write it down and hold it up on a few minutes. Here's a free warm-up question, something that I never knew. What does CVO stand for? Custom Vehicle Operations. Oh, excuse me, sir. Hey, I hear noise coming from your language. You're Harley Davidson. Talk again. Are you better? Oh, boy, you sound like you're inside of a vacuum cleaner. Yeah. Oh, he might have the problem that I had that one time. Because he's got the headset with the mic on. Oh, yeah. The microphone on his webcam could be.

No, because he's got a mic. Hey, Rich, does your headset have a microphone on it? No. No? Okay. Oh, then his webcam is picking up the sound. Let's not talk too much, Rich. He's going to get mad at us. Oh. Everybody's talking, and nobody's talking. Let's all come up with ideas of why his mic isn't working. Why? So in Google, it's an iPhone. Yeah, we can hear you now. We can hear you. That's workable. It's not like crap, but it's okay. You're driving in a car and your window's open. So that big, fancy, expensive $1,000 microphone in front of you is not working? Check the cable.

It's always the fucking cable, right, Tim? It's always the cable. See, Rich is suddenly on AM radio now. Jesus Christ, dude. You know, maybe you need to scale down a little bit, all right? Unplug something. You don't want to see my setup. It's a baby Ruth bar and a cable. I can only imagine.

Yeah, it sounds like it's coming from the room. Yeah, really. Sounds like there's a room mic by a fan. Stuck in an air pressure tank. Chris, you weren't in the room before, but I was saying it's seven years and 308 episodes and we still can't get it.

Let me restart. He's going to restart. Okay, Richard, get out and then come back in. And millions of people do this every day. We can't figure out how shit works. You know what's great? You know what's great about this? It wasn't my fault that time. It was totally him. It just goes to show you that we're not the only ones. We're not the only ones that have this problem. Right, exactly. Of course, he's been out of the podcasting field for, I think, almost a year now. So he doesn't, that equipment's just over there catching, you know, collecting dust. So I think it's pretty funny that it didn't work. And he always, I mean, those guys always had a quality show.

I mean, everybody on that show sounded like, when you listen to the podcast, everybody sounded like they were sitting right there. Did they have side effects? No, they did not. See, that's where they differ. We are the only podcast that does that. Unfortunately, Tim is failing miserably at this time. Excuse me? Don't blame me. Well, no, we're the only podcast of this kind that does that. He's using companion mode. What the fuck does that mean? I don't know what the hell that means. Where is he? He's not in. He stopped. Whatever he did, he stopped. What? See? I'm not doing that. I think I could probably get Deb to sign in from her computer a lot faster.

And she has, well, actually, maybe, I don't know. Mom! You can't chase the background on your skin? No, I can't. I can, but, you know. I did, I think, right? Now we see, I guess you're in your living room?

Oh, no, that's just the background. Oh. And he's got the animated, too, because the cat comes in once in a while. Yeah, that's pretty cool. How'd you do that? Where'd you get that? I've got a cat background. Where can I get that? I did this once. Hold on. Remember, I had the little fucking trailer on that one time, remember? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right, yeah. The Christmas trailer. Apply visual effects. Yeah, on your window in the top right corner, you should see three little dots. Click that. I'm going to the beach. Yeah. What's this here? What is that?

Can you add more to these? You know, Google Meet hasn't gotten that far with it yet. You're in a special ed school. You got a fucking peach and a fucking potato. There's the trailer. There it is. There it is. Now I'm down in North Carolina. That's more like Texas. Virginia has the wild horses, right? Yeah, down in Assateague. Assateague State Park. National Park is a national scene. That's right outside my house. Oh, so you're outside your house now. Oh, look at that one. That's fancy. That looks like a comfortable room to sleep in, whatever you had just there.

about this one? Yeah. It really does. What is that? Oh, it's a cartoon background thing. It's a trendy cafe. I'm getting on a ship with Chris. You know why? You know why I stopped? Remember when I was having that issue with like my shit freezing up? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The first time I put one of those effects on it, like an error message came up and it was like having that effect on might like slow down whatever your shit. And I was like, you know what? I was like, I was having issues as it was. I don't need to complicate it with fake parties. You got like a little party going on there, Tim?

So what I did with the quiz this time, it's great. And the question is, it's multiple choice Jeopardy. And you guys seem to like that a lot, so that's the way we're going with it. Hey, he's back, Rich. And we still don't have... No, we don't hear you.

Okay, what can we do? Go back to what you had before. At least we can hear you. Yeah, it's not like the perpetual toilet flush going on. Okay. Well, he just needs to talk for a few seconds and answer questions. Yeah. Phone? He's going to call you. Okay, here we go. Oh, yeah, he should be able to join a meeting on his phone. All right, okay. You're calling me now?

Are you calling me or are you calling somebody else? He's calling for technical backup in Beijing. He's calling 1-800-TECHNICAL-DIFFICULTIES. He's calling for technical help. You know what? I'm out of work, so I tag the fuck up on him. I do that shit all day. I think he's trying to call me, but it's not working. I'll call you, Rich. Hang on. There we go. I'm calling him. I was just doing IT for the Yankees today, the Falcons.

Yeah. No, hold on. I'm going to just dial into the call. It's giving me an option to just dial in. I got you. I got you. I got you. If you want to do it like this, put your phone on speaker and we'll do it that way. It sounds better for sure. All right. You're not in a window. All right. Here we go. All right. How are you doing, Rich? I'm doing okay up until now. Can you hear us okay? Yeah. Can you hear me? Oh, yeah. I can hear you fine. Good. That's good. That's what we wanted. Turn you up there a little bit. How are you doing, Rich? What's new and exciting since you're no longer podcasting? You have all this time in the world and all that extra money now.

Well, apparently I don't know how to dial into a call anymore. You lost all that knowledge. There's a whole rack full of equipment over here. None of it's worth a damn. Oh, well. So you forgot I had a podcast. That's great. Awesome. So what have you been doing with yourself? Just working. Crazy working. Preparing for track days and riding a little bit on the street. Not much. Yeah. We're still remote. Okay. But yeah, just hanging out. All right. That's good. What track do you go to? You guys look so comfy, by the way. We are. We are. You're chilled out. I love it. You see what I got over here?

That is nice. See that? You guys know what that is, right? Yeah. Yes, I do. All right. That's the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge Trophy, which I've got displayed very nicely here behind me. And I did that just for you, Rich, because I knew you were going to be on the show. Otherwise, it's out in the garage somewhere buried in the boxes.

Now, do you pass it around, or do you make them come down to North Carolina to see it? Yeah, they see it right now. This is the extent of their singing. That's it. So, Rich, we've asked you to be on the show because you're going to be a participant in our motorcycle mental test, and this is where we test your knowledge, and this is where you either excel and show these other guys how dumb they really are, or you disappoint and regret ever agreeing to come on the show. Well, I failed audio, so don't ask me any audio or podcasting questions. The questions only get harder.

Now, you can see... Oddly enough, all the questions are not going to be about audio. Yeah. And former podcast hosts. Yeah, well, that's a good idea. That's a good idea. Because I can't hear the rest of them. Okay. So you should be able to hear everybody now. Everybody say hello to Rich. Rich, hello. Hey, what track do you go to? So most of my track days are at Carolina Motorsports Park, South Carolina, and then V.I.R. is the second one. Okay. How far apart are you two guys? Oh, we're about four hours apart. Is that what that much?

I don't know. Where are you, exactly? I'm in Chalot, which is North Carolina, the south of North Carolina coast. What is it? I'm, what, 30 minutes from Myrtle Beach. Okay, so we're three and a half hours to the beach, so all four. Pretty close. Oh, you're farther in? Yeah. Just a little bit. And John is pretty much, John is just a little, he's a further northeast from you. Yeah, he's probably an hour and a half closer to you. We're probably going to have him on the show next.

So your job right now is to really raise the bar so that when John comes on, he has to really, really work hard to get past this. So what's going to happen, this is going to be a multiple choice Jeopardy situation. So it's like Jeopardy, but within each space, it's a multiple choice question. And everybody gets to pick. Everybody gets to pick their answer, and whoever gets the answer correctly, they get points for that. Okay? Okay. And so now watch your screen, because now everybody ready? If you guys are all ready, we're going to begin this thing. There we go. And Ted rigs the game, just so you know. I rigged the game so that nobody understands what the fuck is going on. That's the idea. He does it to stress us out as much as possible. Now, by the way, for your entertainment, and for your entertainment, it's just wonderful, Justin stresses amazingly on this. He goes over the top. We think he's going to have a stroke.

He looks like he gets pretty jacked up. Yeah. He's got a cat about to bite his head behind him, so that's a problem. I want to see that shit happen. It looks like he's about to. All right. Now, the categories for tonight are... Let me know when you see the screen. Here we go. All right. Iron Butt, in other words, Hit the Road, Parts is Parts, and Music Bits.

Or bites. However you want to let you. Music bites. Okay. I'm sorry. That's not what I wanted to say. I wanted to say music bites. That's it. Okay. Now, Rich, in every instance, you go first. But no question is, Ted. Yeah? Why is it 106 and not 100? This way, there's the opportunity for you to lose by one point. I like that. Or the opportunity for you to win by two points. So, you know, I'm making it interesting.

Justin's having a stroke right now. Just looking at this going, oh, my God. All right, here we go. Now I've got to do math. No, the machine does it for you. So, Rich, you get the pick first, so go right ahead. All right, let's keep it simple. Parts is parts. 106. For 100 here? In 100 line? Yeah, 106. Here we go. Parts is parts. This part can be found on the front of a motorcycle and in the zoo.

All right, and here's your choices What do you think it'd be on the front of the bike in in a zoo? Okay, what's that? I was thinking a gate a gate. Oh, I know. Okay, see Chris. What do you think? That's good Tim

Justin! I was going to say turn signal. Come on, man. I just started thinking of zoo animals. I'm like, what? Yeah, you're right out of money. Justin? Originally, I was going to go the ape hangar route, too, but I guess I'm going to go that route. I guess you could short it and just say apes. Yeah, you guys are all wrong. Seal!

That's fucking stupid. Fucking seal. See, this is the shit I get. Rich should get 5,000 points for that. He had it. Go ahead and pick again. Horse shit question. This is the abuse I get, everyone. Go ahead. Rich, pick again. You fucking stupid. What are you talking? Music fights. Okay. This Judas Priest song had them heading out to the...

A, B, C, or D. Mountains, horizon, desert, or highway? Oh, no. Rich? He's a big Judas Priest fan. Oh, he's the last? No, no, no. You go first, Rich. I'm giving you the option to go first, always. Yeah, because you got that bullshit question in the first one. You're going to go highway, D, highway? Highway. And Tim? Yeah, that's the only song I know. And that's the highway. Justin? Highway. All right. And Chris? Come on, it's both mountains. Highway.

D, highway. And the correct answer is highway, of course. And everybody... If he's got some, like, bullshit B-side that nobody knows about. Yeah, I was waiting for that. Everybody gets 106 points on that. Okay. Justin, so you all got it, so we're going to go back to Rich. Go ahead and pick again. Oh, man, let's see. Let's do Iron Buck, 106. 106, okay. The Bund Burner requires riders to ride how many miles in 36 hours? A, 1200, B, 1000, C, 1500, or D, 2000? 1500, C. Tim? 1500.

Justin? No, Chris. See, 1,500. Justin. You're going to stay on a ship? You're going to jump off the boat? Well, I will tell you this. I was torn between 1,200 and 1,500. So my question now is, do I join the party or not? I'm going to join the party. You're going to join the party.

All right, and the correct answer is C, 1,500. All of you guys get another 106 points. Look at this. This is turning out to be a copycat. It's early, yeah. It's early, yeah. Yeah, really, really, exactly. Yeah, yeah, and I'm sure there's a lot of other bullshit questions. How many other questions have the answer sealed? I will admit, there are a couple in here that require you to answer it. Just come up with an answer. But, Rich, go ahead. Pick another one. You don't have to stick with the one. You can go anywhere you want on the board. You're not required to go from the bottom.

It's bullshit for 1,000. Iron Butt for what? 501. For 501. Oh. All right, go for the big money. The Lighthouse Insanity Challenge gives riders 12 months to visit how many lighthouses? 20, 50, 120, or 60? 12 months? Yes. One year. Rich? I should know this. You should know this. I'll say 50. You're going to go with 50B? I'm going to go with 60. Tim's going to go with 60. Chris? I'm going to go with 120 because there's so many fucking lighthouses in this country.

And Justin, we always save the best for last. Thanks. I'm surprised you have any hair by his hair. Between his cat biting his head and his test. I'm getting gray because of this. Oh, my God. You think about insanity, right? Like 20 is not insane, right? So that's fucking out. You could do that in New Jersey almost. Easily. You figure even at 120, that's 10 a month. But it's not really because, you know, depending on where you are, I guess.

And then, of course, 50 and 60 are so close, so that's obviously what you've got to fuck with us. So it's one of the two. It's either 50 or 60. You like how he psychoanalyzes this whole thing? I'm going with 60. He's with me. And the correct answer is D60. Wow, I'm shocked. I am shocked. That means that we got Tim and Justin get some points there. Tim and Justin. Oh, they're pulling away. Look at that. All right. Now I lose the pick? Yeah, you lose the pick. Sorry. All right, we're going to let Tim go. Tim, pick it.

Let's go, in other words, for 305. Now, you remember how this went, guys, right? We did this once before. 305. 305. I'm sorry. 305. We might as well do that. No, no, 305. In other words, for 305. Here we go. All right. Everyone likes Lay's, especially Snack Lay's. It's motorcycle-related, so you have to think about it. How do you want to explain this? It's a play of words. Snack Lay's.

Once you get the answer, you'll know completely and you're going to slap yourself. This has got shit written all over it, man. Come on. Remember last time we did the thing with the leather jacket? Okay, you know. I just got to figure it out. It's a twist of words. Let somebody else answer. Does it have to be in order? No, anybody can answer. Go ahead. Everybody gets their shot at it. Rich, it's staring you right in the face, man. Really? Yes, it is. It's staring you right in the face. Anyone? Of course, bike-related. It is bike-related, yes. Do I have to give you guys a clue? Yeah.

Okay. How can I do this? That's a bad sign when he can't even answer his own question. Well, because I don't want to give away too much. Instead of lays, the word is days. Yeah, that helps. Okay, crack days. Ride days. I don't know. Nothing. All right, nobody has it? Oh, track days. No, Justin gets it. Track days. Oh, track days. Ah, now you got it, right? Just so you know, there is no fucking way that I would have gotten that without you giving the clue of days.

Not a chance. The funny thing is the last time we did that, the Twisted Words thing is you guys did really well. But that clue was horrible, dude. No, it wasn't. Snack lays. Snack lays, track days. Yeah, yeah. All right. Justin Fick. I want my points for that one. No, I didn't give it to you. I'm sorry. Here we go. I can't even imagine what the 500 is going to be on that one. Okay. No, it's all mixed up. You know that. Go ahead. Let's see. Let's do Hit the Road for 305.

The Dantley double. Wow. The minimum driving age in Zimbabwe is? I'm going to say 15. Rich. 15 as well. Okay. 15 as well. And 15 for me. Okay. And the correct answer is 16. You guys suck. Justin, go again. They can hunt lions, but can't drive until they're 15. They hunt lions at eight years old. They're going to chase on my foot. Hit the road for 204. Hit the road for 204.

This interstate is the shortest in the USA. I-40, I-95, I-375, or I-10? I-195. Because I-95 is not short. Justin! I've never even heard of 375. Is that like a thing? That's a road. I'm going to go with that one. I'm going to go with C2. I'm going to go with Rich and go with the 195. FYI, I-195 is in New Jersey.

I know that. We know that. I-375 in Michigan is 1.06 miles long. That's not a driveway, not an interview. That's a driveway up in New York City. Yeah, that's as long as your driveway is dead. All right. Well, Tim and Justin got that one, so we're going to go with Tim. No, I got it. I'm sorry, Chris. I'm sorry. I looked at the wrong sheet. Give me my points. I did. I did. You said 375 too, didn't you? Justin and me. Yeah, I got it. You got it. Go ahead, Chris.

All right. I'm confused. I want to get this out of the way because I just feel so bad, like Justin just mentioned it. In other words, 501. Oh, Jesus. A pirate might have a loft sale noose. If anybody in here... Wait, loft sale noose. Very good, Justin. That is correct. See? Now you understand. You know what? That Lay's one should have been the hardest one. I 100% agree. That one was easy. All right, Justin, go ahead.

Let's do a purchase parts for 501. Oh boy. At 1269 pounds, it is the heaviest of the others listed below. The Honda Goldwing Touric Automatic, the Harley CVO Tri-Glide, the Can-Am Spider RTC Sky, the Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Voyager. Which one of these is the heaviest? Ooh, that's a tough one. Mmm. Now, is this for everybody? This is for everybody. Now, mind you, so you know this, all of these bikes listed are the largest of these manufacturers. Mmm. It's a Spider.

Yeah, I was going to say the spider or the Vulcan, for sure. Tim? I know. I'm going to say the Vulcan. Tim says the Vulcan. Oh, wait. Triglide. That's a trike. So, what's the deal here? Justin? Oh, yeah. I did. I just realized that myself. I wasn't paying attention. You got to pay attention here. You know that. Reading. Reading is more important. Chris, what did you go with? You went with the Vulcan, right? No, no, no. No, no. That was Tim. I'm going to go with the Can-Am. Okay. Justin. God damn it. Come on.

Come on. I feel like this is going to be one of those fucked up ones. That's why. All these things are huge. These are all big bikes. I know. I'm going to go with the Vulcan, too. Correct answer is the Harley CVO Tri-Glide. The Honda's at 854. Spider's at 105.4. The Vulcan's at 895. It was the damn trike thing. It was the trike. Wow. So nobody got that. I'm very surprised. I am very surprised. I felt like that was too obvious. I felt like that was the obvious one. Of course. All right. And who picked that one? I forgot.

Rich, go ahead. Oh, Justin, pick. Rich, go ahead, pick. Your pick. Let's go. Let's say parts is parts, 407. 407. There's only one model of Harley-Davidson's where this part is located on the opposite side from the other models. A, horn, ignition key, drive belt, or oil filter. Can I go? Yeah, give me your answer. What's that? Drive belt. Tim? I'm going to say B. Chris? I'm going to go with the ignition key. And Justin. God, you should know this. It's got to be belt because ignition key, there's been,

More than one model that has had the key on the left-hand side. The horn can be in the front. It can be on the side. It doesn't matter. Wait a minute. Is that oil filter or oil filler? Oil filler. Did that just fuck you up? I'm sticking with drive belt. Okay. And the correct answer is drive belt on the Sportster and Iron 48 is on the right-hand side. All the other Harley models are all on the left. So Rich and Justin both get that. Wait.

Your drive belt is on the right-hand side. I don't see what you're saying. The drive belt is on the right-hand side of Sportsters, on the Sportster Iron 83 and Iron 9040. Everything else is on the left. Everything else is on the left. Now you got you thinking about it, doesn't it? Yep. Your bike had it on the left. Rich, go ahead. That's working pretty good. Parts is parts. 305.

At $2,599, this might make you sweat a little. The HD 131 upgrade kit, the Alpine Stars race suit, lightning motorcycle battery upgrade, or competition work slip-on exhaust. Well, given the terminology, I would say B, the race suit. They're not all that expensive. So I'm going to say B. B it is. And Tim. I'm going to go with that. That makes sense. Chris. Ted's got to play fucking word games. No, I'm going to say A. And Justin. B.

And the correct answer is the Alpine Stars race suit. Just to give you an idea so you can actually see it. There it is. $25.99. Does that give you a reach around, too? For that price? Oh, my God. Yeah. Is it heated? It's made of kangaroo leather. Oh, that's right. Keep in mind, brew leather. That doesn't include the $1,200 airbag. Oh, my God. Are you serious about that?

Yeah, that doesn't include the airbag. It doesn't include... There's actually an airbag kit. There's an airbag kit. Oh, crap. Go figure. So, who got there? Rich and... Me. Everybody but me. Everybody but you. So, Justin's just, like, kicking ass here. Justin's, like, beating everybody's ass. It's not coming. It's going to change very soon. He's going to lead a long time. I recall, Rich, a couple episodes ago, Justin was, like, down, like, 900 points. Negative 900, I might add. All right. So, we'll let Rich go again because he got that. So, keep it going, Rich. What do you want?

Iron Butt, 407. Iron Butt for 407. This challenge requires riders to hit 48 states in how many days? 20, 25, 7, or 10? 48 states in how many days? I think it's B25. Tim? I'm going to say 20. Chris? I'm going to say B25. Justin!

I mean, it's got to be B, right? I mean, that's a fucking lot, dude. That's a lot of riding. That's a lot of riding. That's a lot of this. Yeah, but you could just grab corners and get four states in one day. So what's your choice? I'm going to be. I hope for every rider doing this is safe that it's B. The correct answer is D, 10. Good God. 10 days to do 48 states. That's insane. That's your next challenge. You can't even enjoy that, right? No, you can't. You're hammering. You're hammering. That's insanity. Yeah, yeah.

All right, Rich, go again. Can't even ride for 10 days. Yeah, really. 10 days in a row, that is, right? Parts is parts, 204. All right, we're going to clear that category out. The widest rear tire available for a motorcycle is a 360, 300, 220, or 240. Can I ask a question? Go ahead. Is this period or is this production motorcycle? Production. Okay.

Is it just Harley? There's the widest rear tire available for a motorcycle. Not ones that are in development or being talked about. Look what we just did. You're not talking about they sell it, you can get it on a bike. You're talking about from the factory, this is how it came out. No, no, no. If they sell it, you can buy it. You went to RevZilla and you want to buy a tire. You went to Bike Bandit and bought a tire. So Rich, what do you think? I know they have 300, but the question is, is there a 360?

I want you all to consider also there's a lot of custom motorcycles out there. Persuasion. I don't try to mess with your minds at all. I'm going to stick with it. B300. Buck 2. I'm going to have to say 300 because it went 360. It might be too much and there's no frame out there wide enough. Unless it was a custom bike. I don't know. Chris? I'm picking 360.

And Justin, the man with no plan. I'm going to go 360, too, because I know for sure there's a 300, but there's got to be some asshole running around on a fucking 360. There's got to be. There's just got to be. And the correct answer is, hey, 360. Yay, got it. And just so you know, I read an article today where a company has developed a 400, but it's not going to be for street use. It's going to be for shows only. I actually did that straight off. Give that to Justin, too. Well, I did. I did give it to you. But it's not available yet.

All right. Give me my points. I did. I did give you your points. All right. Well, Rich, go ahead and pick. Hit the road. 407. At 1,433 miles long, this highway runs from San Diego, California to Sweetgrass, Montana. I-5, I-25, I-35, I-15. And you know what gave me the inspiration for this is that Facebook thing that was going around about the roads north and south. I posted that. That went across and up and down. Yep. We can't see Chris. He's checking on his phone. No, this one. That goes up and down. I don't think it's any one of these. It's on air.

San Diego to Montana. Yeah, San Diego to Montana. This is a total guess, though. Unless if you're a highway geek. Oh, yeah. I can see that. For example, one of these Iron Butt Rally dudes would probably know this right off the top of their head. I'm going to say A. You're going to say I-5? You're saying what? I-5. Chris? I-15, D. There you go. Justin? A.

Correct answer is I-15. Oh, Chris. Bam. Bam. Bam, bam, bam. Chris was jumping in front of Timmy. Yeah, Chris, go ahead. All right, Music Bites for 501. Oh, he's going for the top. James Taylor wrote a song about this road. Lonely, dark, country, or crazy? Every one of them. Yeah, every one of them. A, B, C, N, D. A. Rich. I say A. Tim.

Lonely sounds too easy. Then again, Ted does this fucking shit. You have no idea how much fun this is for me. This is a lot of fun for me. Justin's thinking about it, so Tim, you've got plenty of time. All right, I'm going to go with that. My initial instinct was to say dark, so I'm going to say dark. Justin! You awake? First of all, fuck James Taylor and fuck you for that.

I don't know the answer, but based on what I know about James Taylor, I would agree that it's probably either lonely or dark. So I'm going with lonely. You guys are obviously not James Taylor fans, and it's country. See. Oh, well. Oh, well. Okay. Go again, Chris. All right. 407 Music Lights. Okay. In the classic Get Your Kicks on Route 66, one of these cities is not mentioned in the song. Oklahoma City, Amarillo, Winona, Springfield.

Get your kicks on Route 66. Shall I sing the whole song? Willow Wines, from Chicago to LA. Keep going. Get your kicks on Route 66. And Chris? I'm going to say... If you don't know the song, you're in trouble. Rich? I'm going with D, Springfield. Yeah, I'm going to go with D as well. Justin? I'm going Springfield too.

Springfield 2? There's only Springfield 1, but no Springfield. Correct answer is Springfield. Yeah, Rich. You got that. Justin. And look at this. Justin's still running away with this. This is very sad. Go ahead, Rich, pick. Whatever Justin wants for 501. Yeah, hit the road. Hit the road for 501. Okay.

The longest drivable road in South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands is how long? Oh, great. 2.5, 6.7, a half a mile, or 1.2 miles? Oof. The longest drivable road in South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands is how long? I can give you a little history, Rich, if you'd like. No persuasion here. Actually, believe it or not, this is the honest truth. We have one listener who hit us from the South Sandwich Islands. Do you know where the South Sandwich Islands are? I do not. Do you know where the Falklands are? The Falkland Islands? Okay. They're off the coast of Argentina?

And these islands are a little over 2,000 miles to the southeast. One of the remote places on the Earth. Very close, but it's considered Antarctic. Yeah. Oh, okay. And England actually has a research base there. And we have one listener there. So, what's the longest job? I'm going to say 1.2. Tim goes with 1.2. Chris. I'm going to go C. Half a month. Sorry. It's all right. Chris. Yeah, I'm going to go 1.2 as well. Justin. 2.5. You're going to go 2.5.

And the correct answer is D, 1.2 miles. Yeah, me and Chris are catching up. Oh, yeah. 2.5. That's a sub. Yeah, the road goes from the dock over to where the museum is. And we know this because we've looked at the map. There's a museum there. There's a museum there. And they call it a pizza hut. Not the museum, but, you know. Yeah, a pizza hut's in a museum. Pizza hut is the museum. Justin, you want to pick? I'll let Justin pick this time. Let's just get, in other words, out of here. Let's do 407 on that one.

Your bike might perform better with a mule rack. Fuel pack. Correct. Justin gets that. That is correct. A fuel pack. A mule rack. You know, your watches, in other words, are in reverse because all the easy ones are up high and you put the retarded ones up in the beginning. They're all retarded when you think about it. Two music fights for 204. Okay. This 1970s band was a motorcycle that would have the smallest engine. What is the band? 1970s band. The problem is Justin wasn't born until like 2002, so.

No, no, no. This is simple. Rich, are you a 70s baby or a 60s baby or an 80s baby? 75 for me. Okay, so you should know this. You should know. You might know. Yeah, you know everything I'm going to tell you is five. What? Yeah, by six, I was owning the joint. Yeah. Justin, you might know this because you're an old rock and roll guy, I think. Chris, do you have a... Chris, come on, you should know this.

I really like it. My brain is not working functioning right now. Tim, no clue? I was thinking Motorhead. That's the only thing I can think of. No. How about the monkeys? No. The Cubs. No. Spitfires. Yeah, it's funny. Tim said the only one that I would think of. Yeah. That's close, though. I like that. That's close, though. They came out in 78. That's close, though. I like that. That's close, but no.

All right, let's get ready to boot. 10CC. Who the fuck is that? Oh, come on. You don't know 10CC? It's stupid. Are you serious? Oh, my God. It's the most rarest band probably ever. No, it's not. Are you kidding me? 10CC? I know a lot of bands, bro. I've never heard of them. Are you serious? I've never heard of them. I should have made this multiple choice then. But they're not good at that because they would have given the name away. Look it up. Look up 10CC. You'll see that they were one of the biggest bands in the 70s. I don't believe you at all. I swear to God. They were one of the top hits in there. All right. Let's go. Name one song that they came out with.

I can't think of the title. I can hear it in my head. I can't think of the title. Wait, stop, stop. 1975. I'm not in love. Hey, that's right. I'm not in love. I'm not in love. No, no. What else I had? Come on. Looking for it. Oh, the things we do for love.

Like walking in the rain and snow. Right? That's 10cc. So they were English? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Now you know everything, Rich. What's that one? Yeah, they were popular. They were? Are you kidding me? Oh, my God. Yeah, they weren't. They're on the top 100 list of shittiest fucking unknown bands. Fucking popular. Oh, my God. Obscurity.com. All right. Oh, Rich, go ahead and pick. Come on.

Let's continue the travesty known as Music Bites. This artist rode his Harley Davidson in a hot summer heat. John Mellencamp, Dr. John, John Fogarty, or Eddie Muddy? Well, it's not Mellencamp because Tim would have already known that. Just jump right in there, Justin, why don't you? You want to analyze this a little longer? Yeah, I mean, A was going to be my guess. I'm going to say A only because I can't, I don't know if Fogarty rides a motorcycle. I don't know anything about Eddie Muddy. Actually, on Fogarty, one of Fogarty's albums, he's actually pictured on a motorcycle.

Why don't you get snappy with me? Yeah, you two guys have sang almost all the lyrics of John Mellencamp's song, so how do you not know that? But he didn't say that. He just said he rode his motorcycle. He's not saying it's more lyrics to a song. So make up your mind. What's it going to be? Damn it! Now it sounds like it's being in relation to lyrics, so I'm going to say Eddie Money, not John Mellencamp. Probably fucking wrong. Rich? Yeah, I'm still saying it.

Google treated you well? Justin! I should be, right? I'm going Fogarty. Tell me it's Dr. Johnny because he was the most popular musician in the world. Mellencamp in a song, Can You Take It? Damn it.

It was that Dr. John collaboration with NCC. I don't even know that song. And I used to play with you guys, and I don't even know that song. Yeah, so Tim got that. That's early. That's very early. And Rich got that song. That was off the American Fool album. Yep. Can you take it? All the way. Can you take it? All the way down. Rich, go ahead, Vic. Let's go. Let's go. 305. Okay, here we go. This one-way ride requires riders to travel 2,900 miles or more in 50 hours or less.

Coast to coast 50, CC gold, CC quest, or 50 CC challenge? One way ride. Is 10 CC an option? Shut up. So 2,900 miles or more in 50 hours or less. Coast to coast 50, 50 CC gold, 50 CC quest, or 50 CC challenge. Rich, what's it going to be, dude? All right, you're really screwing with us here. That's my job. Come on. It's called the 50 CC, and that's what you do is coast to coast in 50 hours or less. Correct. There's 100 trickle C, which is east, west, east.

Or vice versa. I didn't know there was a gold to that one. There's a fun burner gold. I'm going to say D. You're going to say D? Which is stupid, but I'm going to say D. I'm going to say A. It's just called the 50cc. I don't think a 50cc can go 50 miles an hour. What? What? Speed and time. No, this doesn't have anything to do with the size of the bike. 50cc stands for 50 coast to coast. Oh, that's what it's saying. Now you're making a mistake because I didn't know what you meant. I'm sorry, this was a 10cc reference.

Yeah, there should be a D. 50cc. Yeah. Or S-E-A, S-E-A, or S-E-E, S-E-E. And a Grub could probably do it. I'm going to say D. Chris. I'm going to say D, too. That's what I've got my eye on. Ah, Justin. I'm going to say D. And the correct answer is the 50cc gold. Quick, get it right. Yep. Ba-boom. He's murdering it tonight. I'm sorry? What is the 50cc? The 50cc is to do it coast to coast. It was to do the coast to coast ride in.

No, 50 hours or less. But the 50cc gold, they want you to do 20, coast to coast, but 2,900 miles. Right. That's the thing. That's the thing. And most guys were riding, according to what I was reading on the Ironbub website, they were going from Maine to San Diego to get that? Yeah, one shot should be able to get 2,900 miles. Yeah, because if you go from Florida to San Diego, it's only like 2,400. Yeah, the rule is with the 50cc, they don't care.

what which east to west coast or west to east coast you do or how long it is as long as you do it in water. Right, as long as it's 50 hours or less. So that's the deal with that. The 50cc challenge doesn't exist. I just made that up. But the 50cc quest, I think that was, I think that's the other one. Also bogus. Yeah, I think that's bogus also. I make shit up. You guys, these guys love when I make shit up. Oh yeah. Like 10cc being a band. Yeah, yeah. Hey, let's not leave out the greatest band ever. The biggest band ever. Crack of shit. Let's not leave out the greatest musician ever. Seal.

Rich, go ahead and pick again. Iron Butt, 204. Okay. The National Parkster requires riders to visit blank national parks in 25 states. Blank national parks. 25, 35, 50, or 75 national parks in 25 states. Is it duh to say A? I'm sorry? No. That's up to you. Yeah, A. Tim? That's exactly what I was thinking, too. Chris?

I'm going to say A as well. And Justin. I'm going B. Okay. And the correct answer is 50. Damn. 50 national parks in 25 states. It's quite the challenge. So nobody got that. All right. Moving on again. Go ahead, Rich. In other words, 204. Some have stool rejection and love it. Fuel injection. Very good, Tim. That's correct. Fuel injection. That's disgusting written all over that.

Stool rejection. I had to come up with something that was good, and I loved it. That is absolutely... I don't want to eat dinner now. I don't know if I want to come up with that. Justin won. All right. Go ahead, Tim. Why not? In other words, 106. You're not going anywhere if you don't have a spear wire. Very good. It's a rear tire.

Very good. I said spare tire, so I'm wrong. Okay, well, a little too late now. I would give everybody a point for that. Everybody gets that, except for Justin. Justin won't get that. Fuck Justin. Fuck me. One more shot. One more shot. Here we go. Hit the road. Route 66 does not cross this river. Mississippi, Missouri, Colorado, or Spring River. Does not cross one of these rivers. We'll go with you, Rich. You pick first. At this point, you can just throw dirt at the wall. I'll just say D-Spring, because I don't know where it is. Okay.

Colorado, I guess. And Chris? Mississippi. Justin! I'm with Richie here. I'm going with D.

The correct answer is the Missouri River. Actually, the Route 66 crosses the Mississippi, the Colorado, and the Spring Rivers. Where's Spring River? It is in Arizona. Missouri. No, I think it's in Texas, actually. Yeah, it's one of those two. I've never heard of it. I've heard of it like a Spring River Junction. It's probably, I have to look it up. It's as real as 10cc. No, no, no.

Believe it or not, Route 66 misses the Missouri River by about two miles. So there you have it. Our winner today is Justin with 3,758 points. Tim comes in second with 2,541. Rich comes in third at 1,742. And Chris brings the last in at 1,634. And that's only because you guys didn't know who Ken Cece was. Actually, you know what? The only reason why Justin ran away with that is because he got the Daily Double. That's the only reason why he walked away with it. Nobody won the Daily Double. What was the wager?

The Daily Double. He didn't wager. No, no, no. The Daily Double here just doubled your points, yeah. Yeah, but nobody got that right, because I remember you answered it. Nobody answered that right. What was the Daily Double? I don't even remember. We all answered the question. We all answered the question. That's true, too. The 10CC question. Sounds like Justin's disqualified. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is great. Yeah. Because I'm just so enamored by that wonderful, enormous band, 10CC. Rubber Bullets, the Dean and I.

and the Wall Street Shuffle were their only biggest hits ever. That's not true. That is totally not true. I'm looking at it right now in Wikipedia. No. And that's when they were called 10CC. You're wrong. They're absolutely wrong. And you're also an Englishman. Fuck them. Are you trying to say Wikipedia's wrong? No. How dare you? Yeah, there's a bad now saying that CNN's always right. I'll have you know, the bumper on this song, when we get to the song, it's going to be 10CC playing. That's what it's going to be. So, Rich, what's going on with you for the next couple weeks? What are you doing? Anything fun?

No, not for a couple weeks yet. Yeah, yes No, no, I'll be passing through your area I'm going up to Illinois to pick up a bike Illinois via Charlotte Wells gonna take 74 up through there. That's way That's the quickest route. That's what they tell me. Yeah, no 14 hour ride Friday night. I mean leaving Friday morning

Yeah, don't worry. And you'll be back. Are you okay at Wilmington? I'm just south of Wilmington. Yeah. You would take 40? Well, I am going to go 40. That's right. I'm sorry. I'm going to go 40, and then it's sending me up 95. No. Oh, shit. I forgot now. He's lost already. You do have a nav system, I hope. I do. It's going to be one of those pilot zones. He's going to go to the wrong state, but get the right bike. Yeah. That's it. Yeah.

He shows up in Iowa. And he's like, oh, Illinois, not Iowa. Reg, you will hear me laugh in the air if that happens. And he's going to drive back to Brick, New Jersey. Actually, it's got me going. It's got me taking 74. All the way up to 52. When I'm eating dinner, I'm going to watch every damn video that's on that band.

And then Route 77, and then 64, and 35, and then 70. So it's got me going up to Dayton, Ohio first. How many hours is that? 14 and a half? 14 and a half. A little over 14 and a half. That's the fastest route.

So how special is this bike? I got a good deal on it. It's an 03 anniversary sportswear. It looks just like his heritage. It's the same color scheme as my heritage. It's got museum miles on it? 13,000. That's nothing. For that many years? It's showroom quality.

Exactly. It's obviously it was museum kept because he was going to the post office. Run it back at the force. Only on sunny days. Yeah, right. Only on sunny days. But is it going to squeak, though? No. Hey, I'll let you know. If that happened, man, I will lose my innards. I will lose my innards. Funny you should say that, because I don't know if you read any of the stuff that I wrote, but as I was getting ready to, you know, I was packing up my house in Jersey, I was putting the bike back in the Ted shed, and my belt snapped. So it just snapped. So when I got down here, I brought the bike over to Beach House Harley-Davidson and told him to put a new belt on. When he pulled the old belt off.

more than half the teeth were missing. So it was, yeah, it was bad. So it was, you know, it was about time. This whole time, that probably could have been a squeak. Yeah, it's all the teeth were going, bye, bye, bye. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, your new bike, though, it's going to squeak, but it's going to squeak at 10cc. I am not going to live this down. It's going to be that number one hit that took over the world. You know, I believe one of the members of 10cc went on to create the Albert app.

Yeah, that's good. Thank you. Yeah, perfect. The Albert app. Yeah, that's exactly what's going on. Justin wins. Shut it down. Yeah, he does. Justin gets the award. He gets that V2 award behind 10. Let me see. Oh, you guys can hear it. Okay, it's fine. And Justin, you get a gold-plated 10cc record.

You're all one of them. Yeah, all one of them with that number one hit that took over the world. I was looking up trying to find what their rank was. 9,999,999. The only thing that I could find that had nothing to do with their rank referred to them as soft rock legends.

They're basically glorified elevator music. Yeah, pretty much. From what I read up real quick. Was that 10 Coast to Coast or 10? Yeah. What's going to be even worse is when we find out that the one guy was so embarrassed of being in that group that he moved to South Sandwich Islands. That would make a movie. A great movie. And then it comes to find out that he... And we're the villains. We're the villains because Ted brought it up on the podcast and the guy killed himself.

And a guy kills himself. He throws himself in a seal head. He's just going to get feedback from that area. You see all the abuse that I got? You get all this abuse that I get? You understand? All I know, Ted, is I know one of your stocking stuff is going to be for Christmas. I'm going to get a 10cc album. I'm going to buy their album. I will play the shit out of that album. I'm going to get you a stuffed seal with a 10cc shirt. Ah, that would be great. We've got to make that happen, Justin. We've got to make that happen. On the bright side, it was just the most we can mention in 30 years. Yeah, the internet's going crazy. Yeah, yeah. Everybody's going to go, who the hell is 10cc?

And in music news today, 10CC has sparked a million record sales in the past week. Their website just went down. Yeah, I just blew up the internet with 10CC, right? I was just the fourth visitor on their website. That's fucking funny. Oh, I've got a fucking headache now. Well, I hope you had fun, Rich.

Yeah, my stomach hurts now. He's never coming on the show again. Well, neither is the guy from 10CC. There's only one member left. Yeah, Ed Stewart.

You've got to get him on the show. He'll be the next guest on the podcast. Yeah, let him come on the show and then he kills himself. As you remind him, what a stellar, unbelievably legendary band he was in. And then he realizes that wasn't the truth. Should we get him as one of the game guests? That's what I'm hoping, yeah, I'll do that. I can't imagine he's all that busy. I'm going to make a category, what strong beat out NCC.

They'll have a whole category for 10cc music. And watch them get it all wrong. Yeah, great. I can see the question now. This 10cc song came in at 986 on the billboards. Fuck you, 10cc! What song was it? This 10cc song rhymes with stool rejection.

See, we don't do this podcast because we know shit. We do this podcast because we have fun. Yeah, exactly. The funny thing was, last week I was listening to some music and Robert Palmer came on. You know guys who know who Robert Palmer is, right? Yeah. I wonder what he's done lately. I looked it up and Robert Palmer died like 10 years ago. Yeah. Oh, well. Anyway.

Well, Rich, I want to thank you for being on the show. I hope you don't regret it. No, anytime. This was fun. That's what I wanted it to be. I wanted it to be fun. Next time with Better Audio. With Better Audio. What? You don't like all that expensive equipment not to work? Speaking of stuff that actually does work, is the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge going to happen this year? I don't know. You're having John on next, right? Yes. All right, you can ask him. Okay. So you're not part of the admin department anymore?

Maybe. Maybe. So I'll have John on next time, and then we'll give him a... I'll be sure to have some spider questions and 10cc questions for him. Tell him I deferred the decision to him. Okay, I will do that. Because then I can get this trophy to somebody else.

The greatest band You know at least who the bgs are turning in their grave That one bad alone like so the fucking 100 million copies Well, have you guys had enough for one night? There's five people on this podcast, and you're the only one. And honestly. And yeah, you know what? Everybody on this podcast covers like almost all the generations. You know what? All the generations that count. I am really honestly surprised. Justin knows his music, too. Yeah, I get it.

Nobody ever heard of Tensi. And I am surprised. I really am surprised. I thought you guys would have known that. I really honestly thought you guys would have known that. Where were they huge? In Japan? No, dude, we're wide, man. I'm telling you. Eric Stewart's 77. What? Eric Stewart is 77.

Yeah. Okay. He's almost as old as mom. Holy shit. They're doing a tour next week. So, anyway. So, I have an interview with Larry Jorgensen from the Coca-Cola Trail. Hey, let's start a bed and call it 20cc. We could be twice as good. No, we'll start a bed and call it 2050.

Or 50cc. Yeah, so I got an interview with the author of The Coca-Cola Trail coming up next week. He actually wrote a book about, there's actually, it's not a physical trail, but it's a tour that you could do if you wanted to hit every one of the key points of the Coca-Cola company in their development over the years. So actually, it's a whole museum trip. It's really cool. And I'll be talking with author Sam Manicom also next week. He's got a new book out called The Moment Collectors, and it's a series of short stories from various authors into one book. But it's a great thing. So I'll be doing that next week, and then I will be going in for my knee surgery in four weeks from today. Four weeks from yesterday, I'm sorry.

getting my knees replaced uh as far as i understand 20 minutes They're going to operate on me, and then they've got me. They don't fuck around with that anymore. It's an outpatient thing. They wake you up. You'll wake good. We've entered you in a 5K run, and you've got to get out there now. So they really kick you out really quick. But I'll be pretty much out for that day and the day after. But they're going to have me out of bed right away and walking around, and twice a week I'll have a physical therapist come here and manipulate me.

Issue me paint. Beat me with sticks and whatever else. They're going to play 10-C-C for their original music. 10-C-C record. Yep. Work out to this. I was late getting over today. You know, 10-C-C's in town.

And he can come and sing all their songs, and you know the lyrics, though. You don't know one lyric to any other songs. You know, the funny thing is, and here's an interesting thing. The first time I heard 10CC was when I enlisted in the Navy, and I was down at boot camp. And that's the first time that I heard 10CC. Oh, in Cuba? No, when I was in Orlando at boot camp. Is this after you fell off the motorcycle? That would have been well before. Well before. Yeah, so, anyway. All right, guys, listen. I have nothing else. You guys have anything else you want to bring up? Nope. Nope. Justin? No. Chris?

No, I want the next questions, the Jeopardy, to be all 10CC questions. I want you to come up with 40 questions all on 10CC. Definitely be a category for sure, 10CC. We'll do that just for you. I want to learn about this great wonderful music. I want the theme song next week instead of our normal music, 10CC. Exactly. I want a 10CC intro. And I want their number one hit. All right. You know what sucks is that you guys can't hear any of the sounds that I play. That's what sucks. We're going to soft rock our way right into the motorcycle.
