00:00So, what is the question of the day, fellas?
00:02So, a little background.
00:04There was a no-hitter last night.
00:05Yeah, there it was.
00:07Emai.
00:08And a buddy of mine texted me, man, that was a masterpiece.
00:11And I texted back, masterpiece?
00:13I didn't think Emai was going to get out of the first inning.
00:16And I've seen probably 100 pitching performances that were better than that
00:20that weren't no-hitters.
00:21Oh, for sure.
00:22Credit, obviously.
00:23It was a no-hitter.
00:25Yeah.
00:25So, I started thinking, masterpiece?
00:27What are some masterpieces?
00:28Things that people think are masterpieces that you just don't understand.
00:32They're not?
00:32You just don't understand.
00:33Like, to me, it's Pink Floyd.
00:35You know, the dark side of the moon.
00:37I mean, my son lives for that album.
00:39Oh.
00:40And I'm like, I don't get it.
00:41Luke's got a t-shirt on.
00:43Oh, wow.
00:43Oh, you're wearing a Pink Floyd shirt?
00:45Yeah, look at that.
00:46You know.
00:46I saw you put that in there.
00:48How do I say this?
00:49You know, there's a part of that that might just be linked to which substances
00:54you may and may.
00:56Not talking about smoking pot.
00:57Pink Floyd.
00:58You're talking about Pink Floyd.
00:58It wasn't called Acid Rock for no reason.
01:00Yeah, this is true.
01:01You know, so I think there's that.
01:02So, maybe you're telling me my middle son takes acid.
01:05Oh, maybe he has at some point.
01:07Yeah, when he is.
01:08That's when it clicked.
01:09Not saying he's not taking it.
01:11Yeah.
01:12I've got two that are musical for me.
01:14This used to burn Ted Johnson.
01:17This used to, he'd get angry.
01:19Grounded his gears.
01:21Rush.
01:22I'm not a big Rush fan.
01:23Oh, boy.
01:24You just pissed some people off.
01:26Yeah.
01:26No, this I understand.
01:27Because I had the same question about Rush.
01:29There is.
01:29So, it's because that was.
01:32It's prog rock.
01:34Stands for progressive rock.
01:35Okay.
01:35Stupid.
01:36Okay.
01:36Dumbest shortening of a word ever.
01:38Because prog rock sounds dumb.
01:39Makes me even mad.
01:40But there is, I think, true musicians respect Rush in a way that us dullards never could.
01:45Oh, really?
01:46That's how I understand it.
01:47Okay.
01:47Some of the stuff they're doing musically is really impressive.
01:50Okay.
01:50And we're just kind of.
01:51We don't know.
01:52I just, the guy's voice is nails on a chalkboard to me.
01:55It's his voice.
01:56I don't like his voice.
01:56Yeah.
01:57The music's fine, but.
02:00The other thing is musical.
02:02This might upset Seth.
02:05Because this is not a close personal friend, but someone you've spent time with before.
02:09Yeah.
02:10Don't say it.
02:13I don't like the long.
02:16Jam bands.
02:1612 minute jams at a Dave Matthews concert.
02:19Oh.
02:20Well, that's.
02:20God, yes.
02:21And again, that's another.
02:22I don't get it.
02:22And yes.
02:23That's.
02:23I don't get it.
02:24Well, that's again.
02:26Back to my Pink Floyd reference.
02:29There's some about the experience of that.
02:30And then also, I think people that actually.
02:32People that understand music do appreciate some of the improvising they're doing.
02:37Because that's like jazz itself.
02:38Like people that don't know music tend to be like, what the hell's up with jazz?
02:41Right.
02:42But then people who know music really appreciate all the different things that are going on.
02:46They know the difficulties of cranking out music.
02:49Yeah.
02:49Like with the dead, it's kind of like the way the rhythm guitar is playing off the lead guitar
02:54and everything.
02:54I just get bored.
02:55You know, it's not offensive to me.
02:56It's just like, can we get to the next song?
02:58I'm here to sing along.
02:59Yeah.
02:59And you've been playing the drums and the guitar for the last 12 minutes.
03:03Yeah.
03:03The same melody.
03:04I would say masterpieces that I just don't get and that I suspect are overrated.
03:10Except I don't, you know, I don't know enough to make the argument.
03:12Mm-hmm.
03:13The Mona Lisa itself.
03:14Yes.
03:14I put Whistler's Mother.
03:16It's an old lady sitting in a rocking chair.
03:18Whistler's Mother?
03:18Yeah, yeah.
03:19That famous painting of that old lady.
03:21Doesn't sound that famous.
03:23Hang on.
03:23I'm going to look it up right now.
03:25I have my computer all closed.
03:27I'm going to look up Whistler's Mother.
03:28Y'all don't know Whistler's Mother?
03:29Is that anything like Stifler's Mother?
03:31Not even close.
03:32Not even close.
03:33Maybe back in the day.
03:34Yeah.
03:34I don't understand.
03:35She looks like she's atoning for something.
03:38Oh, no, no, no, no.
03:38She's atoning.
03:39No, definitely not.
03:40She has deep shame over what she did in herself.
03:42People say a masterpiece.
03:43She showed her ankle to a...
03:46I don't think old Finchie's going after that one.
03:48She showed her ankle to a stable boy when she was 17, and she's regretted it ever since.
03:53I'm like, what?
03:54Andy Warhol, too.
03:55Just like really, really...
03:56Well, no, Andy Warhol, you got something there, though.
03:58Because a lot of his was just marketing and mass production and everything.
04:03Yeah.
04:03Yeah.
04:03Well, if I were to take this...
04:05If I were to sort of individualize this question of the day, like, what's something
04:08you like that you feel like people don't get?
04:11Because for me, I feel like WWE is a big...
04:15Like, I feel like there's a lot of people out there that are like...
04:17There are people that are angry that ESPN is giving WWE the amount of run that it's giving
04:23them on all the debate shows.
04:24And it's because they're in a partnership with them.
04:27All the WWE live events run on their app now.
04:30They've got a huge billion-dollar partnership.
04:32But that's...
04:33For me, that's definitely one where people are like, man, I just don't understand why
04:37you like this so much.
04:38You know what the thing with the Mona Lisa is, I guess?
04:41No, I'm with you on that.
04:42Well, no, you know, and again, because we don't understand art history, there are some
04:45of the things that he was doing in that painting that hadn't been done before.
04:50Right.
04:50So, like, it's because it's kind of a...
04:52It was revolutionary art technique in terms of perspective and stuff, I guess.
04:55When it comes to movies, I got through about 20 minutes of Wicked and turned the channel.
05:01Really?
05:02Awful.
05:02Okay.
05:03I don't know how people...
05:04Oh, see, I love The Wizard of Oz, so I love Wicked.
05:06I love The Wizard of Oz.
05:07Wicked was just like, what is going on here?
05:09The movie?
05:11You said the movie, right?
05:12The movie, yeah.
05:12Have you been to the play?
05:14No, my wife and daughter absolutely love it.
05:15They think it's a masterpiece.
05:17They do, yeah.
05:18They've been to the play.
05:18I think it is, too.
05:19I really like it.
05:19You know what I like...
05:20Oh, go ahead.
05:21Well, I was just going to say, along those lines, I'm not really into plays or musicals.
05:23Like, Hamilton was another one.
05:24Oh, really?
05:25Yeah.
05:26Oh, yeah.
05:26Musicals in general, you're either into it or you're not.
05:29Yeah.
05:29And if you're not, it's just like, why are they...
05:31Why don't they just speak these lines?
05:32Yeah.
05:33Oh, Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
05:35Oh, that's a good one.
05:36Oh.
05:38I guess it's a musical, but I guess, yeah.
05:40Is it a musical?
05:41There's no singing, is there?
05:42It's just a concert, isn't it?
05:43Well, a concert, whatever.
05:44I mean, there's music.
05:45Yeah.
05:45Yeah, but that's different.
05:46A concert makes more sense to me than a musical.
05:49No.
05:49Well, I just...
05:50Whatever it is...
05:51Yeah.
05:52You don't get it.
05:52A rose by any other name is still the Trans-Siberian...
05:55I don't get it.
05:55I don't get it.
05:56I don't get it.
05:56You don't get Coen Brothers movies, either.
05:58I don't.
05:59I actually, yeah, I don't.
06:00I'm not...
06:00Yeah, I don't.
06:01I do.
06:02I love them.
06:02Monty Python.
06:03You're my favorite.
06:03I don't get...
06:04Well, Monty...
06:04Yeah.
06:05Monty Python.
06:06I like Monty Python.
06:07Yeah, I don't...
06:08British humor, man.
06:09I just don't get it.
06:11I think a lot of...
06:11The thing about Monty Python, though, too, is it's a little bit before our time.
06:15And it just...
06:16There's...
06:16With comedy, sometimes it's just...
06:18It only works in the moment.
06:19I had buddies that liked it, though, like in high school and college that really loved it.
06:24And I'm like, man, I just...
06:25You know what is like that?
06:27That is a lot of the really crazy Canadian comedy, like Kids in the Hall.
06:30Yes.
06:31Some people get like...
06:31I loved Kids in the Hall because I try to show any of it to my wife and she looks
06:35at
06:35me like I'm the dumbest person alive.
06:37Yeah.
06:38That's a good one.
06:40Boy, the Rush Truthers are coming out in full form.
06:42Are they good?
06:43I told you.
06:43I told you.
06:44Yeah, whatever.
06:44Whatever.
06:45They're like James Harden fans.
06:46Come at me.
06:47Yeah.
06:47They are.
06:47Yeah.
06:48They are.
06:49They're Rush Stans is what they are.
06:51You're listening to KLTM, KLTM of HD2 Houston and Odyssey Sports Station.
06:55Why are they coming after you?
06:56Didn't I already explain what they were going to say to you?
06:58And are they not saying that exact same thing?
07:00Yeah.
07:00Yeah.
07:01No, they're coming after all of us.
07:02They're coming...
07:02Yeah.
07:02Well, why me?
07:03I'm the one that I'm not saying that I like that.
07:05Except for Seth.
07:06Well, yeah.
07:07No, I'm saying, are the texts they're sending not exactly the same thing I said they would
07:11say?
07:12A hundred percent.
07:12Yeah.
07:13A musician's musician, they said.
07:14Yeah.
07:15There you go.
07:15Okay.
07:16Classic.
07:16He's your favorite musician's favorite musician.
07:19That's the big thing.
07:20Now, please tell me how James Harden actually painted a masterpiece last week.
07:24Yeah.
07:24You guys don't understand basketball.
07:27You don't know ball.
07:29All right.
07:29Boys, have a great show.
07:31Crosstalk brought to you by D&M Auto Leasing.
07:33Crosstalk, I repeat, brought to you by D&M Auto Leasing.
07:37Antibodies to you.
07:38Antibodies to you, today's Tom Sawyer.
07:44All right.
07:45All right.
07:46We're done.
07:46We're out of time.
07:47Listen to my musicality coming through.
07:50Look at how impressive we are.
07:53Oh, yes.
07:54This is all for you to intellectually masturbate to, even though the melody sucks.
08:01I want to that.
08:03That musician's musician's guy.
08:05A musician's musician.
08:06I want to slap the cello right out of his hand.
08:09Yes.
08:09All right.
