The Wilder Ride

We open the episode with Bart telling Charlie to say goodbye. As soon as Bart and Jim leave, Charlie begins to wake up the other railroad workers and tells them to start gathering supplies. The scene dissolves to an open area of prairie in the middle of the night. Bart addresses the folks of Rock Ridge. He says he knows they must want to know what they are doing out there in the middle of the night? In unison they all say, "You bet your a_s!" He's hip with them and then conveys his plan. They are going to build an exact replica of Rock Ridge overnight.

We open the episode, continuing the scene in the middle of the prairie in the middle of the night. Howard Johnson asks how they plan to build a fake town? He tells Bart they don't have the time and they don't have the people. Bart tells him he is wrong just as the railroad workers show up. Howard asks who they are? Bart says, "Railroad workers!" He says they are willing to help and all they ask is a piece of land to call their own. The town is reluctant but initially agrees to all but the Irish. Unfortunately, Bart tells them, "No deal."

We open still in the midst of the discussion over giving the railroad workers some land of their own. Olson Johnson decides they will give land to everybody. Suddenly, the divide between the two groups is filled as they join together with cheers and laughter. Reverend Johnson asks if they can complete their task in one night? Or are they just jerking off? The scene dissolves to the next day and we are outside of a miniature of the town of Rock Ridge. We then cut to a shot of them on Main Street. The shot is a fantastic, close-up dolly shot across the main players all admiring the work they have accomplished.

The episode opens with the camera pulling back to show an exact replica of the town of Rock Ridge. The townsfolk and the railroad workers all begin to celebrate at their accomplishment. We then cut to Hedley Lamarr's camp where he is about to give a speech. We point out a big continuity error with the German soldiers. Hedley opens his speech about stamping runaway decency. He then reminds everyone that they are only risking their lives. He is risking an almost certain nomination for Best Supporting Actor. He then gets them to take the beginning of the pledge to himself.

The episode opens with Hedley Lamarr correcting the pronunciation of his name. He continues through the pledge he is making his gang take. He then ends with a twist on an old Cole Porter lyric. He says, "Now go do, that voodoo, that you do, so well!" They all go riding off, shooting their guns in the air. We immediately transition back to the fake Rock Ridge. Bart holds up his hands and tells everyone they have a problem. Olson Johnson catches on and realizes there are no people. Bart reassures the citizens they can get it done in time. He instructs them to get to work while he asks Jim and Mongo to help him with an idea to delay the attackers to a crawl. Our guest today is Stephanie Harris. She has been in the Radio/Voice field for over five years. Stephanie is an Atlanta native and enjoys spending time with her family and her dogs, working out, enjoying a good book or concert and relaxing with a great movie.

The minute opens with Bart whispering into Jim's ear. The Waco Kid laughs and we dissolve to he, Bart and Mongo admiring some kind of wooden structure in the middle of the prairie. As the scene dissolves, we see Lamarr's army charging toward the camera. As they close in, a gate closes and they all come to a halt. The reverse shoot shows it is a toll booth. Taggart reads aloud, "Lepetomane thruway!?" He realizes they will need to pay the new toll. He yells, "Somebody's gotta go back and get a sh*t load of dimes!" As the minute comes to an end, we see Bart, Jim and the citizens of Rock Ridge gathered on the top of a rocky hill. It looks like someone is handing Bart a plunger used to ignite an explosive charge.

The episode opens with Taggart yelling for everyone to hurry up or they'll never get to Rock Ridge. As we shift to Bart and Jim overlooking the fake town, we spend time discussing a large outtake. The Governor is on a press tour and makes a stop in the fake town of Rock Ridge. Afterwards, Taggart and his men are next on scene. Jim comments they are buying it. As the bad guys are shooting up the town, Bart pulls up the handle on a plunger to ignite the dynamite down below. Unfortunately, the plunger doesn't work. Van Johnson realizes the bad guys are going to figure out it's a fake town any minute. Bart looks to Jim and asks, "Think you can squeeze off a little shot from here..." But, we don't get the rest of the line as that is where the episode ends. Our guest today is Eric Nash. Eric is a co-host on the Watchmen Minute and has been a guest on other movies by minutes podcasts, including DCEU Minute – Dawn of Justice minutes, Point Break Minute, Tarantino Minute and the Galaxy Quest Minute.

Just as The Waco Kid is about to take his shot, an improvised line from Liam Dunn makes him stop. It also leads to many of the townsfolk beating him with their hats. We cut to Taggart getting off his horse and moving to kick down the door to a building. As he does, the entire facade falls, revealing the fake. As Taggart yells they've been suckered in, Jim lines up his revolver. The Waco Kid squeezes off a shot. A moment later, the first charge goes off, sending a horse and its rider into the sky. One of the explosions we noticed is from the same building Taggart had kicked down just moments before. As the minute comes to an end, Sheriff Bart leads the citizens to charge down the hill to attack. As a bonus, we also get a bit of our interview with actor Burton Gilliam over his thoughts about the ending of the movie. Our guest today is Eric Nash.

The minute opens with the bad guys trying to get out of the fake Rock Ridge just as the good guys arrive. Let the battle begin! The brawl spills throughout the streets with several vignettes laced throughout. Reverend Johnson knees a villain in the crotch then lifts his arms to the Heavens and cries, "Forgive me, Lord!" We see Gabby Johnson finish a swig, grab a ruffian and exhale in his face, making his pass out. Harriet Johnson demonstrates a great right-cross. Jim accidentally hits Bart and immediately apologizes. Then, just as the crane shot starts to rise and pull away, we see Mongo punch and then stalk Gabby Johnson! Our guest today is Niall McGowan. Niall is a man who respects a mighty fine hat and could at one point bake a mean loaf of bread. He's one of the hosts of Bat Minute, wherein he somehow has tricked people into listening to him and his co-host enthusiastically talk guano about the Burton/Schumacher Batman films minute by minute (which kind of sounds like another show we know…). Being born and raised in Ireland, Niall has never seen anything approaching the American West in real life, but understands its in a westerly direction. We hope you enjoyed today's episode.

The episode continues with the crane shot moving from the back lot of Warner Brothers and zooms toward a pair of sound stages. The music shifts from the Ballad of Rock Ridge to a 1940's era song and dance number. Inside the sound stage, dozens of male dancers are dressed in top hats and tails. They are spread across a multi-tiered set complete with fountains and a water moat. The playback starts and they begin to dance the French Mistake. On the closing line, singing, "You're doing the French Mistake," one of the dancers has his cane slip and he stumbles, ruining the take. Buddy Bizzare screams into his ear, "WRONG!!" He then attempts to show them how to do it. His final pirouette, however, has him plunging his leg into the pond. Our guest today is Autumn Fischer. Autumn, being the true dynamo that she is, can be found every Monday through Friday 9PM-12PM on the Von Haessler Doctrine on WSB radio, on a pop culture podcast called Radio Labyrinth with Tim Andrews, and her newest podcast with Greg Russ called One Topic.

The episode opens with Buddy Bizarre pulling his foot out of the water and swearing under her breath. He then instructs the dancers to get into places and roll cameras. As the music kicks in and they film another take, the side wall crashes down. The riot from the streets of Rock Ridge spills into the closed set. The fighting continues for a moment before Buddy yells, "CUT!" Everyone stops for a moment. As he begins to chastise them, Taggart walks up to him. He tells him, "I'm working for Mel Brooks." Just as he is about to throw the punch, Buddy begs, "Not in the face!" So, Taggart winds up and hits Buddy in the gut. Buddy thanks him for that and falls to the ground.

The episode opens just after Taggart hits Buddy in the gut. One of the dancers yells out, "They've hit, Buddy! Come on girls!" With that, the brawl, continues, now with the men in top hats and tails joining in the fray. We discuss several vignettes within the minute and as the episode comes to an end, we move to the commissary. Several actors are on their lunch break, still in costume from their various film projects. In the foreground, a man dressed as Hitler is eating a sandwich. His companion asks how many days he has left? He replies, "They lose me at the end of the bunker scene." At that moment, a man is thrown through the glass of the door to the commissary.

The episode opens with the fight continuing to spill into the Warner Brothers commissary. The fight takes on a frenetic pace. The film speeds up to go along with it. We point out the actor playing Hitler is at the very back, standing on the counter alternating his heils. A tour group gets appropriately pie-struck on their tour. Then Taggart gets smashed by Mongo and flies across the counter to the register. Suddenly, the men's room opens and Hedley mouths a naughty word before retreating back inside. A moment later he re-emerges, the remnants of a pie dripping from his face. He begins to make his way out of the commissary. We end the minute with the rioters spilling out onto the streets of Burbank. Our Guest Our guest today is Chris Korman.

As the episode opens, the rioters are still spilling out of the Warner Brother studios. Hedley Lamarr makes his way across the street to hail a cab. A man on the corner, not associated with the movie, managed to make it into the movie. As the cab pulls up, Hedley demands, "Drive me off this picture." Even though the theater is a 16 minute drive, it's suddenly late at night when Hedley arrives. He pushes his way to the box office and buys a ticket to see Blazing Saddles.

The episode opens with a woman standing in Hedy Lamarr's shoes. Hedley walks by, correcting her pronunciation as he heads into the theater. In the lobby, some cows are milling around behind theater ropes. Hedley rushes to the counter to buy some Raisinets. As he makes his way down the aisle, he accidentally tries to sit on someone before finding an empty seat. The movie is already playing on the screen. Hedley looks up and sees Bart arriving on horseback outside the theater. He spits out a mouthful of Raisinets and makes for the exit. He leaves the theater, only to be confronted by Bart. Bart says, "Ok, Lamarr, go for your gun!" Hedley professes to being unarmed. Bart drops his gun and suggests they settle it man-to-man. That's when Hedley remembers he is armed and tries to shoot Sheriff Bart. Bart dives forward, grabs his gun in mid-roll, takes aim and shoots Hedley in the crotch. Our guest today is Chris Korman.

The episode opens with Hedley Lamarr remarking about the stuntwork of Douglas Fairbanks, who had such small feet. He falls over and into what appears to be fresh concrete. The Waco Kid notes Bart shot the bad guy. They look down and see Hedley has written his name in the fresh concrete and added a dollar sign. They both decide to go into the theater to check out the rest of the movie. We immediately shift back to the town of Rock Ridge, circa 1874. Howard Johnson implores Sheriff Bart to stay. Bart says his work there is done and he's needed elsewhere. The whole town then call him on his BS. Our guest today is author J.W. Webb. J.W. Webb is an English writer living in Georgia. Mostly be writes fantasy, though sometimes diverts into even stranger directions. His epic saga titled, The Legends of Ansu, blends the mystic grandeur of J.R.R. Tolkein with the gritty realism of G.R.R. Martin. Webb's characters are three dimensional and flawed; their world a tapestry of vivid color and constant motion.

The episode continues immediately after the town calls Bart on his BS. He admits he is leaving because things have gotten pretty dull. Revered Johnson gets emotional with his goodbye. This leads Mongo to also get a little emotional and he accidentally clobbers the guy in front of him. Charlie wishes Bart well and as he slaps five with the Sheriff, Bart tells them all to keep the faith. As Bart rides to the edge of town past the blacksmith shop, we see the Waco Kid resting with a popcorn bucket in his lap. He asks Bart where he's headed. Bart simply says, "Nowhere special." The Waco Kid pushes his hat up and looks off into the West. "Nowhere special. I always wanted to go there." Sheriff Bart invites Jim to come along. Jim puts down his popcorn and gets on his horse.

Our penultimate episode continues with Sheriff Bart and The Waco Kid riding their horses into the setting sun. As they get down the trail, they meet up with a Cadillac. They driver gets out while the passenger grabs the horses. The driver opens the doors for Bart and Jim. Once inside, the limo speeds off and continues their ride into the sunset.

In our continued lockdown from Covid-19, Walt and Alan discuss movies and perhaps a change in the format of the show given the challenges we've all faced. Buckle up and enjoy some fun banter about a bunch of movies still yet to be released in the theater. They also give some reading suggestions and a couple of podcast shout-outs. 

This is the "pilot" episode (we think) of our new format, which we are calling The Wilder Ride Listeners Lounge. We decided to try it out without a guest and if all goes well, we look to add someone new to the line-up each week. The goal is to keep it to as close to an hour for each episode. Today we spent a few minutes chatting about our lives since the last recording. We then jumped into some odd or funny news stories before launching into movies and shows we've watched. We wrap with a few podcast shout outs. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Our guest on the official "first" episode of our revamped season 3 is radio talk host, BK on the Air. Walt and Alan open the show discussing one of Alan's dogs, Riley, deciding to eat a bottle of Advil. It was a crazy, dare we say, wild, few days following the incident. We are happy to say, Riley is still alive and with us, which only helps to make the story more entertaining. Once BK joins, we get to learn about his passion for talk as well as when and where it began. He took us through his radio resume to where he is today, hosting BK on the Air on WBHF radio and over the net. The episode then moves to some funny news items, where BK hangs out to throw in his own brand of commentary. The guys wrap with a few movie or streaming shows to watch before giving some podcast shout-outs.

In today's episode, we get a chance to welcome Hawk Hagebak to the Listeners Lounge. First, Alan and Walt spend some time catching up from last week. Since this episode was recorded just after Memorial Day, they both discussed the holiday and what it means to them both. Then guest Hawk Hagebak joined them in the lounge to talk about the careers he's had. He started off after high school in the Coast Guard. After a four year stint, Hawk decided on a career in law enforcement. While in that career, he became an avid motorcycle rider along with his wife. Before retiring from the police force, he was asked to write a book on his adventures on his motorcycle. So, he became a published author. His life took a dark turn when his dad passed away, only to then loose his wife to stage 4 cancer 11 days later. He took a ride through Canada and the Pacific NW for five months and has since settled on top of a mountain in North Carolina. He has taken comedy classes, continues to write and is still trying to figure out what he will do when he grows up. Hawk then hung out with Alan and Walt to comment on some odd news items. Then, all three shared some movie/television tips followed by some podcast shoutouts. While the country is slowly reopening and getting back to normal, we are still making all of our Patreon content free to everyone.

In today's episode, hosts Alan and Walt are joined by musician and star of The Golden Rage of TV, Pat McCormack. Before Pat joins, Alan and Walt discuss some current events related to protests turned violent. Next, Walt explains why he had to text his dad to find out if he is still alive. When Pat McCormack joins, the focus turns toward the start of his music career, being "discovered" by Ronnie Montrose. After time on the road in a band, Pat would then go on to be part of the daytime TV soap opera, General Hospital. After that stint, he wrote a them for a roller-coaster ride and then began work on creating rock guitar versions for classic television themes. While working on putting together a road show version of the album, Pat began to realize he was suffering from a hearing issue. It was confirmed he had developed Tinnitus and was going to have to hang up his guitar. Undaunted, Pat then turned his creative pursuits toward producing 1-2 minute short documentaries about the people and shows from the golden age of television. With over 200 episodes under his belt, he has only just begun. The guys then dive into a handful of truly strange news stories. They talk about some movies to watch or stream and end with podcast recommendations.

Today Alan and Walt welcome special guest, Kristen Gates, morning host on 94.9 FM The Bull in Atlanta. They first open with a short week in review, discussing work, family and dogs. This leads to Alan talking about having to put down their eldest dog, Rufus. Once Kristen joins, it's all about her career starting back in college. She was originally going to school with a pre-med curriculum. A counselor in her senior suggested she might want to try a few other things and it lead to some communications classes and a radio internship. She has been in radio ever since, now hosting one of the biggest "new country" stations in Atlanta, 94.9 The Bull. Along the way she has learned a lot, being a female talent on-air. She has also had to deal with real life issues, like getting divorced, being a single mom and trying to hold a career. Then, in March of 2019, she had to have brain surgery to remove a golf ball sized tumor. She is more energized than ever about life and her career in morning radio. They all move on to some wacky news items before closing with some movie and podcast recommendations. Walt once again recommended Fake Doctors, Real Friends. Kristen did a shameless plug for their morning show found on iHeart Radio. Alan did a shout out to the Andromeda Strain Minute hosted by long-time podcaster, Jim O'Kane.

Today's episode features Eric Wojciechowski, a long-time probation officer by day and author by Night. He also is active in the area of UFOlogy. Before we bring on the guest, Alan and Walt recap their week since the last episode. Walt reminded us of having to question his dad over his apparent death. Then Walt recounts the tale of a large, naked whale seen at the gym. Alan talks about getting ready for a glamping trip on his Father's Day weekend. He was also part of a group planning a surprise party for a friend turning 50. The party was followed by going out on the lake the next day. Alan realizes the bulk of his naked body hasn't seen the sun in over a year! When Eric takes the stage, Alan recounts their lifelong friendship, starting with computer gaming, D&D and cable television. Eric then delves into his career move into the Department of Corrections for the city of Detroit. While working the day job, Eric took 15 years to complete his first novel, Three Condoms for Sarah. Also during that time, he found out he had developed stage 2 colon cancer, which had to be treated twice! The second round resulted from a spot on his liver that began to grow. After completing treatment, an idea of a second book formed and it eventually became the novel, Chasing Disclosure. He is set to release his third book, a collection of short stories, on September 11 called Chasing Magic. He will present that at the 3rd annual UFO Con in Detroit on that same weekend. The guys moved into their strange news segment with Eric joining in the running commentary. After, they began to wrap up with some movie and streaming recommendations. Finally, their podcast shout-outs included Seinfeld Minute, Monster, Making Sense with Sam Harris, Joe Rogan, Micah Hanks, Somewhere in the Skies, In Research Of, Monster Talk and 60 Minutes With - The Metallica Show.

Today's guest in our Listeners Lounge is, Dean Sharp, aka Dean of the Dead, who discovered a love of creating new and invetive hot sauces. Before Dean sits down with hosts Alan and Walt, Walt recounted a story of a friend who went to Jamaica. Someone had broken into their room and ransacked the place, but nothing was missing. The camera had all the pictures taken on the roll. The couple didn't really learn the whole story until the film was developed weeks later. Dean began his story of hot sauce entrepreneur by attending a chili cookoff. With his love of horror and an inventive way of approaching his sauces, Dean of the Dead was born. The Covid-19 pandemic put a wrench into year-two plans, but Dean is not detered. He has hopes for a few conventions later in the fall. From there, he hopes to get some television coverage as he begins year three of his journey. Walt's picks for film/television included Jaws (45th anniversary), the Ray Romano special on Netflix, the show Norsemen and a resounding NO on Ad Astra with Brad Pitt. Dean's picks included the newly remade Invisible Man , The Hunt, Haunt and the show People Just Do Nothin. Alan was hitting the movie theater to see Raiders of the Lost Ark followed by Jaws. Podcast picks included Stuff to Blow Your Mind, Darkest Night on Shudder and 60 Minutes With.

Today we welcome a pair of guests to our show, Doug Greenberg and Jason Hanes, hosts of the Rocky Minute podcast. They both also happen to be police officers for nearly 20 years, serving in New Jersey. We started the discussion with how they were drawn to law enforcement. They discussed the wave of pro-police sentiment that existed post-9/11 and where it is today. They explained several changes they've seen, both inside the department and outside. Along the way, they both realized they shared a love of the Rocky franchise and they decided to start a podcast about it. They use the same movies-by-minutes format to break the films down, one minute of the movie at a time. Doug and Jason hang out through the remainder of the show as Alan and Walt go through the crazy news segment. They also provided the listener with some entertainment suggestions. Movies/Streaming/Books: Walt gives the reboot of Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix a solid two thumbs up and reminded folks that Dragon Con would not be live this year, only virtual. Walt also finished reading, "In Memory of Todd Woods," by Tom Taylor, one of the podcasters on The Indiana Jones Minute and other shows. Doug is re-watching The Wire and says of all the cop shows, its one that hits pretty close to home when it comes to the reality of being a police officer. Jason recommended the book, "The Impossible First," written by Colin O'Brady about his solo crossing of the Antarctic. Podcasts: Walt suggested "A Way with Words" and "Culpable" as two podcasts worth exploring. Doug suggested "Team Never Quit," a show hosted by two Navy Seals who find inspirational people and their stories of never giving up in the face of tremendous adversity. He also likes, "Big Screen Sports," a podcast that is going through all of the sports-related movies and whether or not they are close to what really happened. Jay didn't have a particular show, but was so impressed with the story of former Navy Seal, Chadd Wright, he suggested searching for his name and listen to whatever shows where he is a guest. Alan did a shout-out to "The Real Queens of Queens," for hitting their one-year anniversary. He also said that he and Walt would be upcoming guests during season two of their show. He then did a shout out to the, "Bad Cop, Bad Cop," podcast, giving both Jerry and Dave two thumbs up for a very irreverent and non-politically correct take on current events.

We welcome to the Listeners Lounge musician Ben Cramer of the band Old Sea Brigade. Ben has been drawn to music nearly his entire life and took time to chat with us about his career thus far. In the way-back machine, he and some friends created a Green Day cover band as young teenagers. His music abilities grew and led him to a tour with the rock band, Kansas. Upon his return from his touring with them and others, Ben decided to refocus his efforts and created Old Sea Brigade. The band name had been conceived many years before, but had not yet been used. Working out of Nashville, Ben has seen his career grow incrementally and steadily and he would not have it any other way. He has a new album releasing in August of 2020 and hopes to be able to get back into the live performance as soon as possible. Movies, television and streaming: Walt really liked The Old Guard on Netflix starring Charlize Theron. He also mentioned some classics from the 80's -- Commando, The Naked Gun and Spaceballs. He said Commando and Spaceballs have not aged well, but The Naked Gun is still as funny as ever. Walt wraps up with a reminder of the remake, Midway, which Ben also said was a great flick. Ben got pulled into the documentary, World War II in Color. He also finds himself going back to binge epsiodes of The Office. He just saw (and liked) Being John Malkovich. Additionally, he admits he had avoided horror movies in his past, so he made himself watch The Shining and Silence of the Lambs. Alan was back to supporting older movies being released in the movie theaters. His recommendation was for The Empire Strikes Back, which just hit it's 40th anniversary. Alan also relayed having seen the Altanta Symphony Orchestra play the score live to the film and suggests everyone should do that one day. Music: Ben is listening to the new Neil Young release of some older pieces called, "Homegrown." He has also been listening to a lot of The Grateful Dead. This led to a conversation with Ben and Walt about The Dead and Dead and Company. Alan went in a different direction and mentioned the New Age group 2002. He also discussed playing the entire Rush discography, one album a night, after the passing of Neil Peart in January of this year. Podcasts: Walt does NOT recommend "Tuesdays with Stories" but loves "TV Confidential." Ben likes "Off Camera with Sam Jones," "The Working Songwriter," "Atlanta Monster," "S-Town" and "Wind of Change," which is about the CIA writing the hit song for the Scorpians. Alan suggests catching up on the new studio look of, "The Golden Rage of TV" with prior guest, Pat McCormack. He also suggested, "The Hitchcock Minute," which just finished.

Today we welcome Stephanie Swain to our Listeners Lounge. Stephanie is a regular voice on the Radio Labyrinth podcast and an active member of BarkVille Dog Rescue. We learned how an early internet chat room led to love and marriage. Stephanie and her husband moved to Georgia after living two years in Detroit. That's when she became an avid listener of The Regular Guys radio show. She was invited on-air as part of a challenge and befriended Tim Andrews. Over the years, their friendship grew and it led her to being invited to join his podcast. In the meantime, Stephanie has done stand-up comedy and tried her hand at improv. At her core, though, Stephanie is an avid dog-lover and can be found volunteering as much as she can with BarkVille Dog Rescue. After a great discussion about her life and interests, the show moved to odd news. Finally, the episode closes with what they are all watching or listening to along with some podcast shout outs. Movies/Streaming: Walt is finishing up Star Trek Voyager on Netflix. He also enjoyed the Netflix documentary, The Business of Drugs. He also suggested Greyhound and the Midway remake. Stephanie recommended The Colony, with Lawrence Fishburne and Bill Paxton. Alan recapped going back to the movies to see the third Harry Potter flick, The Prisoner of Azkaban. Podcasts: Walt recommeds SuperEgo. Stephaine suggested Literally! With  Rob Lowe podcast and An Oral History of the Office. Alan did a podcast shout-out to Tronologically Speaking, a podcast breaking down the 1982 Disney flick, Tron, in the movies-by-minutes format. Alan also recommended About Space Today, with host David Denault, talking about America's return to space.  

In today's episode, we bring the husband and wife podcast team of Pete and Sandra Marchese to our Listeners Lounge. We learn a little bit more about them before diving into their show, breaking down the film Blade Runner, one minute of the movie at a time. We have a blast learning about how their show evolved and how they let more of their relationship filter into the episodes. We then invited them both to hang out and comment on some strange and funny news stories. We close the episode going though a round-up of what we are watching, reading and listening to. Movies and Streaming: Walt recommends the Netflix documentary, Fear City, diving into the history of organized crime. He finished the not-safe-with-kids Netflix show, The Norseman. He also gave two thumbs up to the final season of Star Trek: Voyager. Sandra finished the series, Motherland. She also enjoyed watching, The Cursed, on Netflix. Pete is in the midst of season two of Star Trek: The Next Generation. For laughs, he goes back and watches all three seasons of, Toast of London. Alan reminded everyone he is also going through TNG and is nearly done with season four. He also heartily recommends the movie, The Foreigner, with Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan, currently streaming on Netflix. Alan is also streaming the cop show, Bosch, on Amazon Prime, finishing up season three. Books: Walt just completed, "The Game," by Ken Dryden about sports. He is reading another book that was recommended by a Georgia Supreme Court Justice called, "Praying for Sheetrock." Sandra is always reading three or four books at the same time.

Podcasts and shout-outs: Walt suggested the show, "SmartLess," with Jason Bateman. Pete is listening to, "The Art of Manliness," and Sandra doesn't really listen to many shows. Alan reminded the audience of his work with the podcast "60 Minutes With" and the Soundcheck Metallica shows he is doing with Chris Jellyman. Alan also encouraged the audience to checkout, "The Blade Runner Minute."

In this episode, we are joined by long-time political analyst, Bill Crane, seen on WSB-TV and heard on WSB Radio. He also owns a PR firm, CSI Crane. He has been involved with politics and business his whole life. We take a moment to get his backstory, including his decision to leave the family's newspaper business in favor of broadcast journalism. Along they way, he veered into politics, working on several campaigns on both sides of the political aisle. He then worked for the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce in the years leading up to the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. He then moved to a public relations firm before deciding to start his own company in 2009. We wrap up the interview with some of the people and personalities he's met along his journey. Afterwards, Walt and Alan spend a few minutes talking about what they are watching and some podcast shout outs. Movies/Streaming: Walt, under pressure from his friends, is getting ready to start binging Yellowstone. Alan, on the heels of being out for the week camping, reminded listeners to checkout Bosch on Amazon Prime. He also watched The Old Guard on Netflix, thanks to Walt's earlier recommendation.

In today's episode we are joined by fantasy author JW Webb, chatting about his books set in the world of Anzu. Jim grew up close to London but it wasn't until he moved out to Cornwall when his first book came to life. He believes there is a great sense of the Celtic vibe living in that area of the UK. It was during this time he also reached out to an illustrator who, at the time, had worked with J.R.R. Tolkien as an illustrator. Unfortunately, tragedy hit JW's life when his wife passed away. In a wonderful turn of events, he reconnected with someone he had met in his youth while sailing around Australia. That new relationship led him to relocating to the United States in 2012. He is now putting the finishing touches on his 12th book in the ever-growing list of books set in the world of Anzu. Movies/Streaming: Walt is working his way through Futurama and began watching Lower Decks, the animated series set in the Star Trek universe. JW recommended Picard, Ozark, Yellowstone, Longmire, and The Bodyguard. Alan is wrapping up season 4 of The Next Generation and season 4 of Bosch.

Reading: Walt is still working his way through, "Praying for Sheetrock," and just finished reading, "Waiting for the Punch." JW just finished reading, "The Real History of the SAS." Alan recommends, "The Making of Tombstone," for anyone who considers themselves a fan of the movie. Listening to/Podcasts: Walt grabs his fresh supply of gummies and has been listening to The Grateful Dead from 1972. He also has a couple podcasts he really recommends; Holy Crap It's Sports with Pete Davis and Comedy, Bang, Bang. JW listens to the podcast Self Publishing 101 along with a lot of Kate Bush and Souxsie and the Banshees. Alan tried out Literally! The Rob Lowe podcast and has enjoyed the guests. He also recommended The Worst of the Best with Ryan Rebalkin, a show that looks at a "great" album or movie or whatever and then the hosts have to decided what is the worst part, moment or song. Alan also loves the podcast 60 Minutes With now rebranded as 60MW. He reminds the audience to watch for the next Soundcheck Metallica show he is going to be on with host Chris Jellyman. Their next episode with focus on the album, "Ride the Lightning." He also gave a shout out to The Real Queens of Queens podcast and The Bad Cop, Bad Cop Show.

In this episode, we welcome two podcasters from 60MW, Ben Ford and Chris Jellyman, who each put out a myriad of shows and content. Ben has been a musician since age 15, playing the guitar. He used to play in a band in the London area and still write and plays songs. He got involved with podcasting when he stumbled across Chris on Twitter. Chris's story begins with a show called, The Same Coin. The video game podcast lasted for several years before running it's course. But, as one door shuts, another opens. Chris joined with the podcast 60MW, then called 60 Minutes With. One of the first shows Chris and Ben do is the video game show, The ABCs of Gaming, where they are joined by Adam Parry. Ben is also part of the ClintCast, where he and podcast owner, Dave Robinson, break down the films of Clint Eastwood in release order.

As with any kid, it's only later you realize what an amazing life you've had.

We hit several subjects along the way, including our earliest memories, worst candy to get in our bags, movies we need to re-watch and scenes that still creep us out today. Additionally, we got to chat about "haunted" places we'd love to visit and what we would love to dress-up as if money were no object.

In this episode we get to spend time with Kyl Cobb, someone who is much more than a ghost hunter. Kyl has an extensive background in research, language, history and exploration. He is very much a modern day Indiana Jones. If you think that is an exaggeration, just listen to the stories he has to tell.

Now throw in his passion for ghost hunting and assisting in exorcisms and you are only just scratching the surface of who Kyl Cobb is.

No shock, but both Alan and Walt seconded his praise for the series. Alan went so far as to say the episode they just watched was one of the most cinematically crafted episode to-date. The western dual outside the gates is juxtaposed with the oriental, eastern dual inside. Alan also said it was a treat to see Michael Biehn playing a role. READING: It's no surprise, but Walt is halfway through reading, "Somewhere You Feel Free: Tom Petty and Los Angeles." Chris is so busy promoting his book, he admits he hasn't had much time for pleasure reading. LISTENING: Walt had three podcasts to recommend this week. The first was The Dirty Harry Minute, where he has been a recent guest. The second was a reminder to checkout SuperEgo. And the third was for The Dennis Miller Option. Chris gave two big thumbs up for the new AC/DC album, Power Up! Naturally, he has also been listening to Tom Petty's, "Wildflowers and all the Rest" deluxe release. With time rapidly running out for the guest, Alan skipped the regular shout-outs in favor of talking about the Sirius XM channel, Classic Rewind. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, they were looping the top 500 songs from the "cassette" era and Alan loved every moment of it. As a grown-up Gen-Xer, it's the music he remember vividly playing in his car as a teenager and beyond.

In this episode we are joined by the extraordinary voice talent and radio broadcaster, Tim Andrews. As with many comedians, Tim developed his comedy at a young age. Part of it was used as a defense mechanism, while part was used for acceptance. By middle school, Tim was already pretending to be on the air, making up voices and stories to tell. As he grew in skill, he moved toward any radio opportunities, landing on several shows before his current run on The Von Haessler Doctrine. Known as the "man of a thousand voices," Tim, along with several others, bring listeners a comedic take on the world of news-talk.

We start by asking what drew Ryan to join the military. We also chat about his career, his specialty and what he is currently doing.

Welcome to season four! We open the episode with Alan and Walt recapping their holidays and activities since their hiatus. For a moment, the two go on a rabbit trail about snow and prior snowfalls in NW Georgia. This leads Alan to mention a documentary he stumbled across on YouTube about the making of the remastered Star Trek: The Original Series. For some reason, this triggers Walt to discuss their first air fryer. After nearly 30 minutes of nonsense. the hosts decide to weigh-in on their plans for season four. The Listeners Lounge will continue as a secondary cast along with a show about a Gene Wilder film. They do not discuss their selection, but they do drop a few hints. If you have missed Alan and Walt, even though they have been a break from this show, they have been very busy elsewhere.

He suggested he will put out a weekly poll in our Listeners Group so the audience can help select the film he reviews. Alan cannot get enough of the SiriusXM app channel, "Classic Rock Party." It's channel 715 on the app and has a great rotation of rock songs from the 60's through the 90's. He also started a new podcast with his wife called, "The Marriage Fit Podcast." It's a completely different kind of show and he hopes the audience will give it a try.

In this episode, hosts Alan and Walt welcome Bryon Lockhart, a former Marine and one of the hosts of The Marine Corps Movie Minute. Alan and Walt open with a discussion on weather. Both are looking forward to spring. Walt mentions he's on a first name basis with most of the ambulances in his neck of the woods. Even the local orthopedic surgeon seems to know Walt. Then the guys welcome guest Bryon Lockhart to the stage. Alan and Bryon recounted boot camp stories. Bryon also talked about growing up in upstate New York in Rochester, home of the Garbage Plate. From talk of the Marine Corps and A School, the discussion moved to podcasting. Bryon started listening to movies-by-minutes and after awhile decided to do one too. Not wanting to get stuck in a franchise, he and his partner decided to look at films based around the Marine Corps. Their first season looked at the Clint Eastwood film, "Heartbreak Ridge." They even had one of the actors, Peter Koch, join them on a handful of episodes. Up next for the podcast, Full Metal Jacket.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray interview radio personality, Veronica Harrell. Veronica actually started her college career with a desire to be a movie director. As fate would have it, she got a job in radio on a small conservative talk station in Jackson, Michigan. That role led to another role back in Detroit. Before she knew it, her husband was transferred to Atlanta and she found another radio job in that market. That role led to some fill-in news and supplemental roles on stations in the Atlanta metro. This got the attention of some of the leadership with WSB and Veronica Harrell was brought in to be a part-time news person. That's when Doug Turnbull of the WSB traffic center asked if she wanted to learn traffic reporting. She made the move and is currently heard six days a week giving traffic reports to the Atlanta listening audience. Veronica also likes using social media to put out messages of positivity. She likes being upbeat, not just for herself, but also for her daughter in college. WATCHING Walt does not recommend watching any of The Walking Dead episodes since Rick left the show.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray are joined by voice-acting talent and radio personality, Autumn Fischer. We open learning Autumn fell into the radio business somewhat by accident. Catching the ear and mind of radio host Eric von Haessler got her on when he was with The Regular Guys show. After that show fell apart, Eric began to reinvent himself. He invited trusted talents to join him for a daily podcast show from his home. Years of plugging away led to a return gig on WSB Radio in Atlanta. Autumn, on the cusp of a degree and an IT career, took the leap of faith to be part of it. Years later, they are the number one rated morning show in Atlanta from 9AM-12PM. Along with her history, Alan, Walt and Autumn talk about the very real danger of cancel culture. It's a serious discussion, handled in a humorous way. Autumn Fischer sticks around though the rest of the show as we move into our terrible movie review. We follow that with four ridiculous news items. The show ends with an entertainment discussion over what each are watching, reading and listening to. WATCHING Walt is finally starting to watch WandaVision and has enjoyed the first few episodes. Walt also re-watched Coming to America in preparation to watch the new sequel, Coming2America. Alan jumped on that, saying he and his wife just watched both of those films back-to-back.

Autumn highly recommends the YouTube channel, Red Letter Media. She also likes OSS117, The Real Housewives of NJ and NY and the British series, Peep Show. READING Walt just ordered a copy of "Running with the Devil," a history of Van Halen. Alan and Autumn decided to plead the fifth. LISTENING Walt started the podcast, Dark Arenas, and was immediately hooked to this twist on the crime podcast genre.

Recent ones include: Where My Mom's At; 2 Bears, 1 Cave; Your Mom's House, Saving Sex in the City 3 and Watch What Crappens. She also did a shameless plug for her own podcast, One Topic.

In this episode, Alan and Walt sit down with former Alabama football player, Navy Seal, Actor, body guard and now businessman, Mike White. The conversation opens with a discussion of how Mike was recruited to play for the University of Alabama. During college, he never thought about a career in the military. He admits the irony in being an English major in school, more interested in Chaucer than anything more concrete. But, Mike believes in effective communication and a robust vocabulary. A chance look at a magazine is what sent him to the US Navy, where he became a Navy Seal. Some time is spent discussing the intense training and teamwork to make the Seal team. After serving his time, Mike White started to get into acting. His physical size and abilities got him roles on several television shows and films. After four years, he had the chance to perform security for Bill and Melinda Gates. After that, he became head of security for Bruce Springsteen for a year. Mike recounts one particular story about how the "Boss" nearly got pulled out of a van on the way to the airport. We end the interview segment with where Mike White is today. He believes each and every move in his path led him to the job he has today. After the interview, Walt reviews the horrible movie selected by our listeners. Then Alan and Walt each share a couple of crazy news items. The two wrap-up with the entertainment segment. WATCHING Alan is working his way through season one of ST:TOS (remastered) and commented about how good, "The Balance of Terror," was so far. Alan and his wife are also onto season 4 of The Good Place. Walt was turned on to a pair of documentaries he recommends. The first is, Murder Among the Mormons. The other is called, The Ripper.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray get a chance to talk with long-time Atlanta Falcon, Tyso Claybo, about his career and retirement from the NFL. The conversation starts with Tyson Clabo's college years and the let down of not being picked in the NFL draft after graduation. He took a lot of trips to visit with teams, so he felt upbeat for awhile. When things were not falling into place, he began to question his abilities. He found himself in Europe for a bit, going from Barcelona, Spain to Hamburg, Germany. In the middle of playing in Europe, he was called back to the states. Even then, he was not able to get on an active roster until a meeting with the Atlanta Falcons. Though he was recovering from an injury at that time, the Falcons said they wanted to see him again. He didn't believe them, figuring the injury had killed his chances. However, true to their word, Atlanta brought him on and he played from 2005-2013. His NFL career then took two brief stints in Miami and Houston before he retired in 2014. The interview wraps with a discussion of how Tyson and his wife adopted their children. The overall message discussed is to work with local representatives to make the process and cost of adoption easier for loving couples who want to raise those children as their own. After the interview, Walt goes through what may be the worst movie he has reviewed thus far in season four. The hosts then turned to their crazy news segment and finish with their entertainment segment. WATCHING Walt watched the documentary, Operation: Varsity Blues - The College Admin Scandal and highly recommends it. He also watched the documentary, What the Health? Finally, he is embarking on WandaVision. Alan only had time to watch the first episode of Falcon and the Winter Soldier and loved it. He mocked those who criticize the pace, saying it was only the first episode and to let the story develop. READING Walt is still making his way through, "Running with the Devil," and hopes to finish it shortly. Alan hasn't gotten the book yet, but he plans to get, "Trumpography: How Biblical Principles Paved the Way to the Presidency," by photographer Gene Ho. The reason for wanting to get the book is a mutual friend of Alan's put them in touch and he will likely be an upcoming guest on the podcast. LISTENING Walt finished up the podcast limited series, Gangster House. He thought it was a well produced and enjoyable story about an FBI Top 10 Most Wanted, whose girlfriend just so happened to live close to Walt's family when he was growing up.

The museum is slated to open in Fall of 2021 and will be a world class automotive museum. Tom Shinall talks with us extensively about the research they did first. Many car museums are someone's collection. After seeing it a few times, there isn't anything new. Savoy will plan to have rotating galleries to always have fresh and new themed exhibits. But, that is just on the inside. The car culture is so pervasive, there are tens of thousands of car clubs.

Although stumbling across photography by accident, Curtis admits, he didn't really have a knack for it. The work was difficult, but he loves what he does. He has learned from others along the way. Though specializing in boudoir sessions, Curtis does other photography as well. He is also quick to help others who are wanting to learn. As a side hobby, Curtis Bloes has always seemed ready for the world of podcasting. He takes us through his earliest versions, putting out shows on cassette before burning CDs and now online.

He still loves shooting video and hopes to continue to keep it within the family. He plans to keep making aerial videos and post them online for his followers to see. After the interview, Walt dives into another review of a listener selected "bad" movie. This one may have made Walt hit rock-bottom! Then Alan and Walt exchange some crazy news stories from the week.

In this episode, hosts Alan and Walt welcome returning guest, Tim Andrews, host of the podcast Radio Labyrinth and a voice on The Von Haessler Doctrine radio show. Since we've spent time with Tim before, we didn't start at the beginning of his radio career. Instead, we decided to look at the start of his path toward parenthood. At age 50, Tim is about to become a first-time dad! Much of the interview becomes a discussion on parenting. Alan is already an empty-nester and Walt is not far behind. They discuss the difference of the times and caution raising a child only with an iPad. It's great to embrace technology, but we all live in the real world. It is important for all parents to make sure their kids learn to exist there and not just the virtual one. After Tim leaves, Walt begins his movie review in a world of artic sharks. Not surprisingly, it's another bad movie for him, though not as bad as the last few have been. After that, Alan and Walt share a few wacky news items before jumping into the entertainment segment. WATCHING Walt highly recommended the stand-up comedy special on Netflix called, Why Would You Do That? by Sebastian Maniscalco. He said it was really funny and hoped the comedian would tour the area soon. Walt also suggests, This is a Robbery. The Netflix documentary is about the largest art heist in history.

As usual, the show opens with Alan and Walt recapping their week. Walt manages to keep his voice through most of the show, but he is still on-the-mend from a recent bout with laryngitis. Both Alan and Walt have been slammed with work and home repair/renovation projects. Once Gene Ho hits the stage, we learn how he stumbled across photography in college. After falling in love with the field, he started doing wedding shoots. He was in the right place to get a gig with the wedding of an Atlanta cheerleader. As he mentions, once you get that first foot in the door, he was able to get more of them to hire him. From that point forward, he was climbing on a rocket. As his business grew he had a chance to attend an event where Donald J. Trump was attending. Gene Ho was hired by a magazine to take pictures. Within a couple weeks of that event, Gene got a handwritten message from Donald Trump complementing him for his work. One thing led to another and Gene was asking to be the photo-documentarian of the Trump campaign. Being on the road, photographing hundreds of events over two years really gave Gene a full perspective of the man and the campaign. After the election, Gene worked to release a book called, Trumpography and is now running for the mayor of his home city of Myrtle Beach, SC. After Gene Ho's interview, Alan and Walt moved into the horrible movie review segment. They then covered crazy news and wrapped with the Entertainment segment.

As usual, the episode opens with Alan and Walt recapping their work and happenings over the past week. They quickly move to welcome their special guest, Chris Lott.

Chris began to gravitate toward creating music and before he even thought of film school, was composing. He admits he has learned most of the craft on-the-fly, diving in head first and learning by doing. Later, his wife, a classically trained musician, would help him with both business and creativity.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray chat with classically trained music composer, Douglas Helvering. We start with a look back and Doug's draw to music. He was first pulled in via a choir and became mesmerized with learning more about music and composition. As a PhD professor of music, Doug has spent most of his adult life analyzing and teaching others how to understand music theory. When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, he was forced to reevaluate how to reach others while in lockdown. After awhile, he returned to his YouTube channel, commenting on news and thoughts of the day. In the fall of 2020, it was Doug's brother who suggested Doug try a reaction episode. Doug was not really ready for a clash of music genres, but his brother suggested giving an analysis of the Iron Maiden song, "Fear of the Dark." It was a huge hit with YouTube watchers. Within weeks, he gained thousands of subscribers. With a newfound purpose of teaching principles of music theory over top of metal and hard rock pieces, Doug has grown to over 70,000 followers at the time of this recording. Doug truly teaches us what is happening compositionally in the music and how it moves through chords, keys and even lyrics. In some ways, the watcher is getting the benefit of a classical education leveraged on elements of metal and rock. As the episode wraps up the interview, Alan pulls executive privilege and bypasses the normal review of a horrible movie. Instead, they all talk about some of their favorite war films in honor of Memorial Day. After the films, Alan and Walt each provide a pair of odd news items. Then they move into the Entertainment Segment. WATCHING Walt is watching the Robert Kirkman animated series, Invincible. He also re-watched the 70's film, The Towering Inferno.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray bring back former FBI Agent from season three, a show we call, George Murray vol 2. The last time we spoke with George, we spent a good amount of time going through his backstory, from Vietnam through retiring from the FBI. This time we spend almost the entire episode on his FBI background. Alan and Walt start off discussing all the stories hitting the media of late, which were considered false this time last year. So many people's voices were squashed. Alan hopes we all wake up and realize it's better to have more information, not less, especially if the information is wrong. Once George joins, he weighs in on the topic before the interview turns toward his career. George Murray vol 2 begins with a seventh grader who met an agent and decided that was going to be his career. After college and a stint serving in Vietnam, George went to Quantico and became a field agent. Alan and Walt ask about the changes happening in the Bureau at the time, including the start of Behavioral Sciences. This led to a discussion of Wayne Williams and the Atlanta Child Murders. George was actually part of the overall surveillance team. During that time, an incident occurred where a mental health patient stopped taking his meds and decided to break into the building with the FBI and hold 9 agents hostage. A SWAT team eventually had to take him down. The conversation rolls into the recent Colonial Pipeline issue with Russian hackers and how the FBI was able to recover significant funds. Alan and George then share some information about the pipeline situation, leading Alan to ask about politics in the Bureau. After that, Alan and Walt begin to discuss some of the undercover work and arrests across George's career. This leads Alan to remind the audience he is in awe of the vast majority of people working in law enforcement. Alan brings up the latest cyber sting regarding the ANOM service, which netted hundreds of arrests. As the interview winds down, Walt asks about George ever firing his gun and about asking if young people should want to work for the FBI. Alan jumps in with his worry of how law enforcement is getting so much negative press that even police-friendly communities are seeing hiring shortages. George hopes police will get back to where they were and society can move forward with law and order. Then the hosts let him go before finishing the remaining segments of the show, with Walt's horrible movie review, crazy news items and the Entertainment Segment. WATCHING Walt has finished the cartoon, Invincible, on Netflix. Though Alan saved spoilers, they both agree there is one really big unanswered question. But, they both plan to watch season two.

He had taken a few early "graphics" classes in high school, but nothing was computerized at that point. Once in college, Jeff got involved with the campus newspaper and other publications. Within a few years, he found himself gravitating more toward layout and design. An opportunity opened and he spent two years living on a Caribbean island. He enjoyed it, but after a few hurricanes and living hand to mouth, he returned to the states, moving to Atlanta. As his graphic design career continued to grow, Jeff discovered the world of podcasting. Being forced to commute an hour each way to his job, he got hooked on listening to shows on-demand.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray meet the family members who make up the New Age group, 2002. The story begins with husband and wife, Randy and Pamela meeting in high school theater. They both had a love for music early in their lives. The two would go in separate directions after high school, getting involved with various bands as part of their musical journeys. After nearly a decade, circumstances returned them both to the Texas area where they reunited. That would eventually become the team who would create the New Age group, 2002. The choice of that kind of music actually came from an event where Pamela was asked to play random, soothing melodies on her flute at a gathering. At the end, those in attendance wanted to know where to buy their music? From the simplest of starts has grown one of the most renowned and successful new age groups of the last few decades. As their daughter, Sarah, grew up in a musically gifted environment, she soon developed her own skills, both as a musician and a singer. Soon her talents were added to mix, creating even more depth and variety of music and melodies. Their most recent album, Hummingbird, is available for digital download and the physical media will be available in mid-July 2021. As one well-respected critic, Steve Shepherd, writes, "It is hard to explain this, but whilst writing this review I haven't spoken, drank, or moved, and barely even breathed, and only just realized I hadn't even saved my work, this is how amazingly great this album is, I kid you not, this is without doubt the best instrumental album that 2002 have ever created. Hummingbird will probably go down in musical history as one of the best examples of 21st century New Age music there is, as it really doesn't get any better than this."

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray sit with Barnaby Martin, the star of the YouTube channel, Listening In.

As someone who would love to compose his own pieces, he started to become interested in breaking down other pieces. After a time, he began his own YouTube channel. His ultimate goal was to create a place where he, himself, could learn by analyzing pieces of music, including film scores. Teaching himself how to be a video editor allows him to make wonderful and engaging pieces that teach as much as they explain. They are mesmerizing to watch while listening to his learned analysis. It's almost as if we are "listening in" on his musings! This sets up the episode to be a little different than others. As a musical journey, music has to also be a part of the show. (Hopefully there won't be issue with other platforms where this show posts!) The conversation begins with James Bond and themes to that long-running franchise. This allows all three to embark on a fantastic discussion over favorite themes as well as mentioning a couple not-so-favorite. Afterwards, the show dives into various film composers and some of their scores. As the show winds down, Barnaby Martin encourages folks to follow his work, subscribe to his channel and even engage in the conversation.
