I just spent two weeks in a backpack. I just spent two weeks in a backpack. Yeah, you did. You totally did.
You had a doubt. A doubt. A doubt and you traveled. Two.
I owned in the UK and Ireland. This Emerson is not a very dynamic character, is he? Give him some space. This Emerson is a little dull.
Hey, come on, Chance. Hey. They were going to use me. They were going to use me.
They were going to use me to record comments from the people that they met or on the way. And that the shows. shows the people at the merch table. They didn't do that.
They didn't take me out of the backpack. There he is. They took me out of the backpack. What we did?
Oh stop complaining, Emerson. Who the little baby got stuck in the backpack? OK. Welcome to a world of neglect at the hands of Lou Barlow.
OK. All right. Well, welcome to Ron Preshins, everybody. Welcome.
I'm the very neglectful Lou Barlow. I'm your co-host. I'm not that neglectful. No, you were busy focusing on the focus on the tour.
You know, it's hard to multitask on tour. It really is. You know? You can kind of, it's kind of an eyes are bigger than your stomach.
Completely. And then I'm going to, and then I'm going to, and then we'll go. But we don't even bring the podcast microphones on tour with us anymore because we're like seriously now. At least we've got honest about that.
Because there's really, I don't, I always think like, there's got to be some time that will happen when we can do it. And then every single time we're on the tour, I'm like, there's literally no time. I mean, unless we're able to record while we're in a car, that's the longest amount. Oh, oh, oh, Psycho Candy did not appreciate that.
Oh my God, I heard him. That was actually, well, that was a big fuck you from him. He didn't say much. SaaS, he was like, no, don't do that.
I could show him for the folks that watch from home. I know he's wandering around the studio right now. He's not, you know, he just leaves. He like, they might hear some rustling, and then wonder what it was, and it was our psycho candy.
You're absolutely handsome fellow, but who did not want to be participating today. And that's fine. We had grand plans for Emerson. That's our little cassette recorder.
Yeah, portable cassette recorder with AM and FM radio. That works. Yeah. We tried it out, and we're selling them on the Barlow Family General Store.
I have to re-stock them, because I actually sold out. I have five. We are actually a brick and mortar store now. Adele completely shocked me into a whole new life.
Got an LLC. And then you've taught me what wholesale is. I had no idea. I always wondered, why do people open stores?
How do they make any money? They make money by buying things wholesale, which you can only do if you have an LLC, correct? Well, yeah, I mean, it's still not a guarantee that you're going to make money. You have to sell the things that you're all.
Move on. It's time to get to it. It's already late. It is actually speaking of way late, way late and way late.
I've got a little happy birthday episode for November. Yes. Forgot. No.
Oh, there's pumpkin. Not for going to the late. Delayed, correct. Aborted practically.
That's no. He's a little harsh. That was too much. Oh, he's edgy again.
Yeah. He was like, now it's time for the time for happy birthday for November's. Yes. Yeah, we did forget.
We did not forget you. The first one is from Sean. And Sean says, can I make a birthday request? And we said yes.
And then Sean never replied. Yeah. There was a we got a we got an email from Sean saying, can I make a birthday request for November? And we responded.
Yes, of course. And he never wrote back. Oh, OK. So it never.
So it's kind of a mystery where they request. Sean never sent us a shout out. We don't know what that's about out. But just like like no, no, follow through.
No, follow through. That's just like you, Lou. OK, so much you haven't done. OK.
Seriously. Let's think about this. OK, that's not I don't want to be accused right now. You're taking Emerson on the road and you're not doing many podcasts anymore.
Not at all. There was only three in November. And you've forgotten about me. No.
OK. November, we were on tour for like half of the month. Gosh, but you know what, guys? We will.
Stop complaining about your ear. Oh, I don't think I've had shit about your ear. My ear's pretty bad right now. Oh.
It doesn't make it hard to recall. Oh, yeah. You've had a hard time. It's true.
Yeah. That catches mitt on the side of your head. Your ear. Yes, my left ear.
No excuses. It's not even a care about me anymore. And you don't care about the podcast. And you don't care about me.
OK. This is part. He's taking this first. He's getting a little.
I think he's jealous of this guy. Emerson. Yeah. You should have two pods in the pipe every week, Lou.
We're going to do pods in the pipe. January. Two pods in the pipe. I'm not doing two a week, but you know, life is throwing us some.
No, Emerson. Wrenches? Yeah. He's jealous.
He's just jealous. He's jealous. He's like, I want more time. More airtime.
Yeah. Well, so anyway, shout out number two. OK. This is from Kevin.
Kevin Bazon. All right. Or Bay. Bay's on.
I want to take this time to tell you both that I enjoy the podcast very much. Mm. I used to work at a radio station in Greenfield and enjoy all the local references that you mentioned. Western Mass is a great place.
And you represent it well. Wow. You Kevin. Yeah.
That's nice. I've been listening to Lou since the early 90s. I've had a couple of Lou interactions over the years. Wait.
Wait. I can't even tell. Hold on a minute. Kevin is a longtime local fan.
He's last name is Bazon. Just like that indie guy that plays the house shows too. I hear he's way better than Lou. David Bazon.
David Bazon. Kevin, it's your birthday. Happy fucking birthday. Welcome to a new year, you.
Have we spoken the universe is broken so close and yet so far away from Lou? Kevin's been around for a while. He's contacting me before emails. OK.
He served me coffee in Boston years ago. He's been just kind of shadowing me for years. We've shadowed each other. We've been living parallel lives.
Oh. That was the point. I like this little part of his email. He says I also saw Lou at the Franklin County Fair a couple of years ago as our radio station was our broadcasting live.
I was on the microphone and I asked if Sabato was playing at the fair as Lou walked by. He looked at me like I had two heads. I actually remember that. And that was him.
I didn't know. So, shout out number three is to David Ward. Hey, folks, it is most probably too late for birthday shout out. But just in case, my partner, Nickola.
Nickola. Nickola. Nickola. Nickola.
Nickola. Made it. Sorry. Nick, Nickola.
Oh my god. I don't know what it's saying. We've never too late. Oh, I got to do some pew-be-sees-gramper.
Do you ever rob the award? Let's stop and torture our family. November is the month you're both about. Who cares if it's December?
You're me, shout. Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Nickola, it's your birthday.
David, it's your birthday. Nickola's name just rollers off the tongue. I bet you're awesome because your name is awesome. Do me as I say it all day long.
Nickola. Nickola. So, David's partner, Nickola, turned 40. Yes.
OK, yes. That's Henry's birthday. That's Henry's birthday. Wow.
OK, so happy birthday, Nickola and David, who both had November birthdays. Yeah. Yay. So I better get on with shout out number four.
Right. Oh, God. This is from Katja. I would like to send birthday greetings to my pal Christian from Hamburg.
His birthday is on November 19th, and he is turning 54 years old. We both love the music of Lou. Dinosaur Jr. full-completion in Sabado.
We had a project where every Friday we took two albums from the Circle of Lou, Jay and Murph, to listen to and discuss them. Sentro, Deep Wound, We left nothing out in 26 weeks. What? These two are really good friends.
They're hanging out every Friday. Keep reading. We listen to 52 albums. One of Christian's favorite songs by Sabado is Beauty of the Ride.
Nice. It was November 17th, 2022, a Thursday. This Katja has a really good memory. Christian sent me the message, Lou and Adela are doing a podcast.
Hopefully, my English is good enough. I'm excited. Oh, my gosh. I was thrilled, too, and became a regular listener.
And she says a lot of really nice stuff about the podcast and, of course, of her. It says the podcast. It feels like sitting in the living room with good friends. And he's damn right about that.
Thank you for the music. You're a great podcast. You're loving her. Congratulations to Christian.
Wow. Thank you so much for this really nice email. And thank you for all the support, you guys. That really means a lot to us.
And we hope you're still here and still listening. I guess you are. If you sent us this podcast, birthday shout out. That's so wonderful.
Yeah, we got five this month. That's so sweet. We got five requests. Thank you for all the kind words.
Yeah. Really, that's really nice. It's not too late. Katja also had a really cool story about Bonie Am.
Oh, really? Of course, of her email. Oh. Her email.
Apparently, she lived in Bremen, or near Bremen, which is where Music Lauden was taped. Music Lauden is this amazing music show from the 70s, possibly 80s in Germany. It's an incredible footage of almost every band you can think of. On that show.
Yeah, but there's great Bonie Am footage. But apparently, after one of the Bonie Am tappings, the guy who acts like the lead singer who lip syncs the lead and the Bonie Am people. Yes, but I know. We have the whole Bonie Am episode in the past.
She decked it out. But apparently, her father worked for the electric company. So I'm doing a very generalized thing. He worked for the electric company.
And he fixed broken power boxes. Apparently, the lead singer, singer, dancer guy hit one of the boxes. And her dad talked to him. Wow, cool.
I knew your last name. Are you the Christian from before? And the loyal fan that Annie Banda doors. There's some Christian from Germany, who used to write me back in the day, which shows the curly internet.
Fucking his dangabats, Togdangfieden from Stigabats, Togden showed the goal. If you can't enact, oh no. And exits called an als fart on the German highway. I'm gonna think that's funny till I die.
Happy birthday. Happy Christian. What the? Since he got out, bad things keep happening.

Better. Oh. Oh. Did you know this was happening?
No. Did you mean to do that? No. Uh oh.
Oh. You better get on with it. What's up? I don't know what.
Are you the Christian? Oh, oh, wow. That's a spooky guys. Why don't you start reading?
Okay. I better read the next shout out. What the heck is happening? Whoa, is it moving?
I wish I knew your last name. Oh boy, guys. The technology has officially taken over. Don't know your fan bit any man by door.
That's cool. That was ghostly. I like it. That feels like special for Christian and Cottie then.
Yeah, poor track man is fucking with us. It's time to burn. It's time to burn. I'm feeling it.
I had to. I took German in high school. I know you did. Sometimes you like to pull up little German bits here and there.
I was pretty good at it for a while. I also took German in high school. I was so bad at it. That's funny.
Oh my gosh. So bad at it. All I remember is Ishmael Mute. You're cranky.
You're tired. You're tired. Yeah. You've been moody.
People told me that I had good pronunciation for a little while. You do. You like to throw it around a little bit. You like to go to Germany fairly often.
You throw things. I like the way you know. In the 80s and 90s I spent a lot of time in Germany on tour. We just make you really cute like Crown and T-shirt that says world traveler.
Lou Barlow, world traveler. I just... Is it that annoying? No, I love to teach you about it.
I dropped the ball here. You did not. My boyfriend turned 56 on November 3rd. The only thing he asked for was to get his birthday shouted out.
I had an email do yet and I'm positive. He was secretly crushed. So please, oh please. If I'm not too late, can you please wish the biggest fan of your podcast ever another Christian?
This is a different one. Yeah. A Christian compania from Swamscot. Swamscot.
Swamscot. That's a Massachusetts pronunciation. Dang. A happy birthday when you get a chance.
It would literally mean the world to him. Thanks so much Mary Briceke. Yeah. Wow.
You need these nice letters. Guys? It kind of got me... Geez.
It's kind of like kicking the buns. It's a little emotional about that. Yeah. A Christian.
Yeah. A Christian. Happy birthday, Christian. You've got a double Christian on this one.
Well, thoughts out to Christian. Wow. Where's Swamscot? East of here.
Okay. So like you're the coaster. Sure. Well, maybe there's a swamp there.
Yeah. I was like, what's the place where? A lot of Eastern Massachusetts is swamp. Really?
Yeah. Sposten itself was just a big swamp. For a long time until they... There's three hills that comprise Boston.
Uh-huh. You know, like Tremont. Three hills. And they pretty much tore those hills down to create landfills.
So a lot of Boston is on landfills. That's what I was just going to say. Is that true that you said that Boston is basically, I don't say made of trash, but like built on garbage? It's built on mud and tree trunks.
Landfills. Okay. Not like garbage, but like early sort of debris from logging, I guess. Well, they went out and logged the trees and then drove them into the swamp and covered them in mud and dirt from the hills.
That they tore down the three hills that comprised Boston. When did this happen? Hundreds of years ago. Okay.
It happened like in the 1700s. Wow. Maybe even the late 1600s, 1700s. And here I go.
Watch out. Does this loop go to the history lesson? Oh, no. Why the fuck am I even saying anything?
Oh, my God. Yeah. Apparently during high tide, you couldn't walk in Boston. The high tides would actually like separate the city into the three hills, basically.
I'm ready for that documentary called Three Hills. Let's do it. I'm sure it's out there already. Kevin.
Kyle Carr. Who's the documentary guy? What? The guy who does it?
Jen Burns. Yeah, thank you. Get on that. Yeah, local or he's a fellow Massachusetts resident at this point.
I know. Yeah. So, oh, wait. What?
Wait, what about you? We won't. Don't break this. Shut up.
Oh. But what about, um, does a second Christian get a... Oh, he does. Oh, shoot.
Okay. Oh, you're going to play it live. Yeah, I'm going to do this. Do this.
Follow the script that you still lovingly wrote. Okay, he wrote a script. He got real. He was inspired.
All of what we're saying is not a script. He did a skeletal outlay. Christian really loves the pod. Christian really loves the pod.
Two Christians really love the pod. I guess that means there is a God. There's a God. A shout out for your birthday.
Happy fucking birthday. Welcome to a new year, you. Although it's December, better late than never. Here's a fucking shout out for you.
Still 2025. From Adele and Lou. Yay. Happy birthday, everyone.
Yes, and now thank you for sending us those emails. Thank you for listening and supporting our little podcast, guys. Wow. That's nice.
And you know, I had so many people say nice things to me at the merch booth on this tour in Ireland. It's Scotland and England. And you know, the podcast people, it was really cool because they almost always just come up to me and they say hi Adele. They just say my name right away instead of like, you know, they just like, can I have a t-shirt?
They go hi Adele. They connect right away. And then oftentimes we'll say like, I love the pod or I listen. And I just, I don't know, I just really found that very nice and it's sort of grounding and it kind of just like immediately would connect us.
And it was special. I mean, not to give any credence to what Fort Rock Man was saying about me being neglectful and not having two pods in the pipe. I did, I felt a little inspired. I was inspired by our tour when I got, when I met people who listened to the pod.
I was like, okay, you know, because it's hard to do things. Well, and it's, I think, I think the thing is- It's hard to do anything, goddamn it. Well, I think it's more that we listen, we all know there's like a bazillion podcasts in the world, right? And you can listen to like anything but ours and the fact that like- You can learn?
You can actually like go to a podcast and legitimately learn something. You can listen to forensic details of murders. Totally. You can solve crimes by listening.
You can solve crimes. You can. You can learn like about a historical figure. You know, like there's a lot of really cool podcasts.
You could learn a fact, you could hear a factual description of what actually went on in Boston and how they built the city. Rather than some musician that lived there for 10 very stoned years of his life. I mean, and also we just kind of talk about ourselves and our lives and what's going on and you know, I don't know. I really don't think I'm that interesting.
I want to make it clear. I don't think I'm that interesting. I do like- We just like talking. I like talking and I do like music.
We like yapping and singing and- And I do like playing with my tape recorders. Yeah. And I like playing with myself. That you do.
Goddamn it. You just dirty up the first amp of the sofa with your touching. That doesn't- I made no reference to my genitals. You said I like to- Never mind.
Did you just say you like to play with yourself? Yeah. Okay. Well- That doesn't mean that.
Let's get our other- You're the one who made it that. You did that. Not me. Well, what are you thinking about touching yourself?
That's hot. That's why we're married. That's hot guys. I recommend.
I recommend for anybody considering getting married. You know, you can go down to rules. It's like, you know, number five. I think yeah, leave it to just five rules.
No more than five. Because that's too complicated. Within that five there's got to be, you know- Someone's got to appreciate you touching yourself. Ha ha ha ha.
They have to find you like attractive. They have to genuinely find you cute and charming. And you know. Yeah.
So anyway, so November birthdays. Okay. So yeah. November 27th.
November 27th was- That's- That's- Hendrix. I'm not going to say his last name, but he's related to me. He's really related to me. He's related to me by marriage.
He's related to me by marriage. I love him deeply. And he'll never hear this, but it doesn't matter. He turns 16.
He turns 16. Hendrix for sure, thanks to podcast, is cringe. Grinch. T.S.
cringe. What's T.S. I don't know what something he's saying before everything now. Taylor Swift?
That's what I said, but he was like, no. Not Taylor. It's like T.S. Total shit.
Yeah, he thinks it's total shit, but he puts it- what the kids do today with their sayings. Oh wait, is there- oh, well, wait. Well, wait. Well, so November.
Did we have another family one besides Hendrix? Right. Oh, my sister. Duh.
Oh, he died well. Amanda. I'm sorry for being your older brother. Well, uh, wait.
And happy birthday to Alexis. Thanks for having me on podcast. Let me- let Emerson talk. No hard feelings about the back- No hard feelings about the back- Remember to remind people that you can buy my brothers and sisters.
I'm going to restock Emerson. I'm going to restock Emerson. Family, general, store. Coming soon.
That's right. Going for some flavor. It's time for- Thank you for listening to Brown Pressions. Remember, happy birthday, shout out episode.
Stop complaining, Emerson, my God. If I was for sale, I would sell to whom, but I'm not for sale. Oh, my goodness. I had to circle back before we press end on the episode to Yes Wish.
My sister-in-law, Mandy Barlow, a very happy birthday. A very steady hand in our family. Amen. Yep.
She gets things done. She retired from our really high-ranking government job. Stressful. Super stressful.
Yep. She's really put in the time for the world, for the people, for the government. And she took it on the chin, I think, for a lot of folks and had to deal with some difficult stuff in that job. She worked for children and families in the United States government in a very high-ranking position.
Yes. Yes. Now she is retired and she's showing up around here more often. She's earned all of her time off, guys.
She's earned it. She's now- she's spending more time with my parents. Yeah. And then also the oldest kid went and stayed with her recently as well in November and Mandy showed her around the different museums and things in DC.
So yeah, it's just a happy birthday Mandy. You have a like a like a like a like a well we I guess our friend Alexis our Carol. Her birthday is the day after her sister. She's the 28th.
