Thank you. Enjoy. Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Andy Daly podcast pilot project. Here are your host, Matt Gorley and Andy Daly. Well, well, look what podcast is back. It's the... You say it. I'll say it. Please.

It's the Andy Daily Pilot podcast project. I don't think that's right. Now you've been having me say it. What? And I always get it right and this time I didn't get it right. I believe it is podcast before pilot, except after... Hose. is podcast before pilot except after daily. Oh, who cares? Well, who cares?

Well, who cares? Well, who's the opposite. God damn it. Should we start again? Nah. What's the point? It's great to be back. It's great to be back.

Yes. This podcast that you're listening to is back for its second season. It's been four years. It does and doesn't seem like. It's to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to to to to to to to to to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thoo. thooo. thoo. tho. thoo. thoo. to. to. to. to. to. to.'re listening to is back for its second season. It's been four years. It does and doesn't seem like four years ago. Right. Yes, I would say mostly for me doesn't. I don't know where the time went. I can't account for it. Yeah. None of it. The world's changed. Boo. Yep. But enough about that. Enough about the despicable people in our world, let's talk about the despicable

people in the podcast world. Yes, indeed. So just for people that don't know what this podcast is, this is a podcast on which and in which we curate podcast pilots that have been submitted to the Earwolf Podcasting Enterprise. That's right. They arrive in giant mail sacks on cassette and we usually go on a nice vacation and we listen to them.

Sometimes I go by myself if I remember the legend. Uh-huh, yep. And we listen to each and every one of these. Absolutely from beginning to end. Anytime somebody submits a podcast pilot for consideration to become a regular podcast, we will listen to that pilot fully and completely. And then we choose eight of the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. thi. te. te. te. te. teo. teo. their their their their their their their their their we will listen to that pilot fully and completely and then we choose eight of them. Last season it was eight, this season it's eight again to air and to just sort of give a public airing and there's no guarantee that this means that it's going to be a regular pilot. As a matter of fact I believe, correct me if I'm mistaken, that last season, none of those pilots became regular podcast. Is that right?

Yeah, and as someone who works at Earwolf, I want to take the blame squarely off my shoulders because I took this up to the highest, the powers that be, as high as I could go, I believe I did one of those, you know, fist pound on their desks, you know, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I did one of those, you know, fist pound on their desks, you know. Yeah. I threatened to walk and nothing happened. You gave eight impassioned speeches. Movie climax speeches. Absolutely.

Yeah. And none of them worked. So I just want the listeners to know that I'm fighting for these, you're fighting for these. And so much so that we're here again to make another stab at this and what we think, thank God, I think the quality of these podcasts has been leveled up so we have a really good chance. I agree and in many cases these are podcasters who we heard from last season who you know took some notes and are trying their best to take a second whack at it. Yeah. And we lead off season the same way that we let off season the season the season the season the season the season the season the season the season th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I tho. I tho. I'm to told. I'm told. I to told. I'm told. I'm told. I'm to. I'm to. I'm to. to. I to. to. to. to. to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. I, to. to. to. to. to. to. t. t. tode. today, th. toda. th. th. th. the. th. the. the. the. to. that we let off season one with a fellow

by the name of Dalton Wilcox who is a cowboy poet and an author and has a few other things going on. And now after this one aired I did hear from some people who sort of said you know oh he's a terrible person and you know just in a a long list of ways and and some folks even said I think he confessed to multiple murders in that podcast but we weren't listening for that. No no we were listening for artistic content entertainment values yes right and then enter what is it? Edutainment and the idea of a podcast from the perspective of a

cowboy poet seemed very novel and what. But anyway, yeah, maybe those reasons, those horrible person reasons and murder reasons. Maybe that went into the decision to not pick it up to a regular podcast. I don't know. Well, it also the same rules apply to like a priest and confess a murder, we don't have to do anything about it. And I may have those rules wrong, but the point stands. Yeah, and we are priests, we should say that. Oh yeah, oh yeah. We are both priests. And I'd say seven of eight of these podcasts were pitched to us in a confessional.

Oh yeah. As we were taking confession. Right, yeah. Yeah. The tapes were slipped to us right around the bend there of the confessional. So Dalton's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's thin's th. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh, tho. Oh, tho. tho. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah.. Yeah... Yeah. Yeah... Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah. Yeah... Yeah.. Yeah.. Yeah.. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah. the... the bend there of the confessional. So Dalton's back. Dalton is back. And so we touched on this a little in the teaser episode that when his podcast got rejected, we had to call him and he did not take it well at all. That was a dark day. Yeah. And just to get off the phone,

I mean, there were threats and you know it was it was bad but just to get off the phone I said remember I said feel free to submit another one yeah I mean you know you thought it was a consolation Yes I kind of meant it is a bit of a brush yeah and within what two days yeah yeah he coughed up another one and so and it's very different in some ways but similar in others to his previous effort this is a podcast called bananas for Bananza with Dalton Wilcox very different in some ways but similar in others to his previous effort. This is a podcast called Bananas for Bananza with Dalton Wilcox. And this is a podcast where, as he'll, you know, he'll explain it, but his plan is to devote an episode of his podcast to each episode of the television show, Bonanza. What are some other shows that do this?

This is a podcast model. It really is. It's its own genre of podcast. It's called the Rewatch Podcast franchise. You take a franchise like West Wing Weekly for instance. A podcast of mine, James Bond film and then we do an episode for each film. He's going to do this for 400 and some episodes of Bonanza, presumably. That's the plan.

Wow. And they actually aren't discussing the actual first episode of Bonanza, which is called a Rose Forlata, episode one, season one, and you can find that on YouTube. You could watch it if you want, before you listen to this or after. Yes, that's right. It's extremely entertaining, I thin' thii. th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's thi. It's thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thee. the. the. the. thean. thea. tea. toda. the. the. the. thea. the. the. the. the. the and it is once again the Western perspective, but to be perfectly clear, we just didn't want the threats and the anger that would come from not even airing the pilot. In a way, it's a bit of blackmail. It's indirectly blackmailed into this, but that doesn't mean this isn't a great podcast. It could very well become a regular podcast. I think it will. There's music in this podcast.

The journeymen are back. The journeymen are back. I mean, unbelievable. I think it's everything you could ever want in a podcast and plenty of things you might not. But anyway, shall we listen to it? Let's do it. All right, without any further ado. I think that's how you pronounce that. Ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy Bananas for Bananza with Dalton Wilcox.

Hello, friend, come on in. The gate is open wide. Welcome to Bananas for Banaza with Dalton Wilcox. YAH! Hello, friend, come on in. The gate is open wide. Welcome to Bananas for Bananza with with Dalton Wilcox. That's me. Folks, I'm a cowboy poet. I'm a real live working cowboy too. And I am known to one and all as the poet laureate of the West. I am also the worst-selling author of the book. You must buy your wife, at least as much jewelry as you buy your horse and other poems and observations,

humorous and otherwise from a life on the range. This right here is my is is is is is is th.. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi is thi is thi is thi. thi. thi. the thi. the the the the thoen, the the tho-in, the the the the the the the thoe. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I, th. I, th. I, th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. theat to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. theea. thee. the. th life on the range. This right here is my brand new podcast, Bananas for Bananza. This is finally that podcast you've been looking for, all about the very best Western TV show ever to flicker across the Idiot Box. Bonanza was on from 1959 to 1973 and they made 431 episodes of the show starring Lauren Green, Michael Land and a couple other guys. This show brought the Western lifestyle, the ranching lifestyle and the show starring Lauren Green, Michael Landon, a couple other guys. This show brought the Western Lifestyle, the Ranching Lifestyle, and the Man Lifestyle into American Living Rooms. And prior to that, nobody in America had any idea what it was like to be a rancher or to be a man.

And so it's a very important show. And besides that, it's damn fun and exciting, and if you haven't seen it then you're fucking up and you've got to watch it and you're gonna love it. Now the whole idea behind this podcast is we're going to do one episode of this podcast for each episode of Bonanza that they made. We're gonna dig in deep each episode one at a time of Bonanza and that's 431. Now you might be saying Dalton that's not enough episodes of this podcast. I want more. Well now now, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the thi. thi. the thi. the thi. thi. the thi. the the thi. thi. the thi. the thi. thi. the the the the thol- thi. the whole thi. tho-I the whole tho- the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole the whole thol-d. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thirty thirty thirty-s. thoooooooooooo' today's thoooooooo' thoooo' tho now, you see, my plan is that this podcast that you're listening to is going to become so fucking popular that it's going to renew interest in the television show Bonanza, and they're going to start making it again, like they keep doing with TV shows these days, and then we'll have more episodes washes the snake's tail, just like that. That's the plan. And by the way, we're going to talk a little bit about efforts that have been made in

the past to reboot Bonanza. It has been tried and it's very interesting effects. We're going to talk about, we're going to get into Bonanza. Now folks, this isn't the first time that I have tried to do a podcast. I have made a pilot one other time for a podcast for God knows what god-dame reason the city Slickers who was in charge a podcast didn't want me to make more of them so this time I have gone and I've made a completely different podcast in every single detail I tore it down to the struts and rebuilt it and this one you will see has nothing in common with that previous effort. It's a totally different show. All right. But now, coming up on this show,

listen, you're gonna, I, when I tell you what's gonna happen on this show, you're gonna say, how's that even possible? Fucking, holy shit. We're gonna have a poetry workshop, okay? A cowboy poetry workshop, and not only that, we are gonna have brand new original music from the goddamn journeyman. Can you believe it? The journeymen are here! Holy crap! And I did it again. I put the songs at the end of the show and now I'm angry because I want to hear him now. Well, but that's coming up. And we're going to talk to the journeyman here. And we're going to talk of Bonanza, a rose for Lata, was named the first episode of Bananza. But now before we get to it, I do want to apologize if I seem a bit rattled today at the beginning of this episode. I just want to get a little something out of the way. As you may know about me, in addition to being our

nation's foremost cowboy poet, I am also very unfortunately plagued by vampires. That's just a condition of my life. And also mummies and Frankenstein's. I have a number of problems with Frankenstein's, creatures from the Black Lagoon. That's just how it is. I have a, I've had a great many interactions with monsters. And because of that, I am, as you might expect,

hyper vigilant about monsters. Which is how it came to be that last night I spotted an invisible man. Now here's how it happened and I just want to tell you this because it's definitely affecting my point of view on everything today, what I went through last night. I was down to my local watering hole, also known as my saloon, but I was having myself a few whiskeys and as I was walking home, I passed by a darkened alleyway.

And I heard clear as day, footsteps on the pavement. I looked there all around me and I couldn't see anybody. You hear footsteps and you don't see anybody. Now a lot of people in that situation might say, oh well, weird things happen sometimes. But I'm Dalton Wilcox. You understand me? I've seen enough to know, but that was a goddamn invisible man. So I pulled out my six guns and I shouted, Who's there?

And that's when I heard a voice down the dark alleyway say, whoa, what's up? Well, I approached slowly, too slowly, I guess. Because by the time I adjusted to the darkness, I saw before me a man just like any other man staring right back at me. Yep, it seems I had given this invisible man just enough time to put on his disguise. His visible man disguise and it was fucking perfect. I'm talking about latex rubber highly movable face mask with ultra realistic hair, had to be human hair, and glass eyeballs to move just like human eyes. His false hands were military grade prosthetics. I knew I was dealing with a real mother-fucker. So I walked right up to him

and I said, are you an invisible man? And he basically confirmed it. He says, what are you talking about? Put those guns away. Come on. Chapter and verse. That's what monsters always say anytime you ask point blank if they're a monster. Something just like them. Well that's all I needed to hear to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I thu. I thu. I tole. I tole. I tole. I tole. So. I thoooooooooo. So. So. So. So. So. So I any time you ask them point-blank if they're a monster. Something just like them. Well, that's all I needed to hear. Let's just say you won't not be seeing him anymore. All right, ladies and gentlemen, with that unpleasantness out of the way. Let's get going with the very first episode of Bananas for Bananza. With me, Dalton Wilcox. Let me. Let me, that's, that's, that's. Well, that's, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is all that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all that's all all that's all all that's all all that's all that's all all that's all anza with me, Dalton Wilcox. Let me introduce our panel that's going to be

talking about the very first episode of Bananza. Well I have here, ladies and gentlemen, dear old friend, often known as the grandfather of cowboy poetry, Bartleby Mokahe, hello Bartleby. Hi, how are you. So nice to be here. It's great to see you. You know what, somebody pointed out to me and I don't believe that it's true. It's not. That it's been three years since we tried to make a podcast pilot before. Oh my goodness, it seems like just two years ago. Right. So I don't, I don't, I don't choose not to believe that's been that long. But th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi. thi. th. th. th. to be th. to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, th. It's, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. to to the. to the. to to to the. to too. to to toda. to to to to to to to to the. to the. the. the not to believe that it's been that long, but however long it's been, have you been in the interim? I have been quite fine at times and other times, not so much. That's a very honest answer. Sometimes, you've had your highs and lows.

Oh, life goes up and down. Sure it does. Well, give us, give us a sample of one of the high points of your life and since we talked about, the the, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since, since the the the the the the the the. You don't have to say the EO, by the way. As a cowboy, you don't have to say it. Just go ahead and call it San Antonio. Well, as I'm saying, it's optional. You can't say it, I suppose, but you don't have to. I don't like to.

City slickers need don't hear it. I went to San Antone. There you go. And I had a sandwich there. They called it a Rubin sandwich. It was a Ruben sandwich. Fantastic. I'd never had anything like it. Was that corn beef? I don't know what was in it. But a thousand island dressing in there. I believe you. Put some sourcrout on that. Okay. Heat that sandwich up? It was very good. You can get that just a bit any place. But all right. Any excuse to go to St. Anton is. I believe it was a local dish. Yeah, they redone that riverfront down there. Stay away from it. It's nothing but city slickers. But I did go the the the the th th th th th th th th th tho th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho thi thi tho tho tho tho tho tho thoom. thoom. thoom. that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi the the the. the the the the the the the the thea thea thea thea thea thea theananananananananananananananananananan that's that city slickers. It turned it into garbage. But I did go see the Alamo. You did go see the Alamo. What did you think of that?

It remembers, remember. Remember, that's right. I set aside about 20 minutes every day to remember the Alamo. I do it typically do it right after lunch. Depending on what I'm day to remember the Alamo. I think you do it right after lunch, depending on what I'm up to, but you know that if you go to the Alamo, yes. You can get a room and sandwich over there that's just at the Alamo, not at the Alamo, but it's close by. Uh-huh. Yep. It's very good. That's good travel advice.

When visiting the Alamo, try to get yourself a Ruben sandwich because I guess they make them special in San Antonio. I agree with that. Yep. There is, by the way, contrary to popular myth of basement at the Elamow. You just have to, got to know who to talk to. We've also have, we're talking to be talking to the journeyman here. Mutt Taylor is here.

Mutt Taylor, how's he going? Hell it's good to be back. I'll tell you. Man, and I'm here to celebrate what I think is maybe the finest American institution ever made, and that's the television series Bonanza. Oh man, are you bananas for it? I'm bananas for Bananza so much so that I buy myself a little stake of land on the Ponderosa, what was once the Ponarosa? Are you kidding me? I'm not kidding you.

Up their tumbling down. I said I am not about to play pay market price for this. What do you want? Now quadruple it and then add some more because that's what it's worth. Because it's part of the fictional Ponderosa. I don't need to tell you that. God damn. I like your style. Well speaking to my style, I'm wearing all Versace today here. I noticed that you're dressed awfully spi. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I th th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th.

Well when you have enough success like I have, people come to you to dress you, whether it's botany 500 or one through four, I don't give a God's damn.

past three years? I bought a car dealership. Oh you're kidding me! Yeah. What? I'm selling Mazdas? Yeah. the far as the eye can see. An acre of them. All right, well give us to go real quick give us the pitch on a Mazda. You can expect comfort and fuel economy. Shit. All right. I'll take one. Do you do your own TV commercials like some folks do? Of course I do. Of course you do and that's what you say huh. Cubby Lauderdborn Mazda! Get in one! Yeah! But you gotta clear up, you're telling people to get in the Mazda, not the Lottomborn. All right, that's just an advice. Who, uh, and the rest of the journeyman here, we got Jimmy Blades, Titt's Hanrahan, and Thumper Collins, how you all doing over there? Hey, you, yeah. Hi, Mr. Dalton. How's it going there, Jimmy? I'm very good, thank you for asking. Oh, yeah, what have you been up to?

Well, I think thanks for asking that. I've been working on a solo album. You're kidding me? What? What? the other members don't, they're not. The style is different than what we normally do. You know, I'm a big fan of a rock I've never been a big fan of rock music of course not no, but I love role music roll music roll music is always interesting I've never heard of that that you could separate out the roll from the rock. Oh, absolutely. How did what okay well, you know you're I see your your questioning face Let me see if I can explain. You know how when you're listening to a song? Yeah, oh you're to to to to to the the to the the the the the th? I I I I I I I I I I I I I I th? th? th? Oh, th? Oh, they? Oh, they? Oh, they? Oh, they? Oh, they? Oh, they? Oh, they? I they? Oh, they. Oh, they. Oh, their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their they? I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I try. I try. I try. I try. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th if I can explain. You know how when you're listening to a song, oh you're with me. I'm with you so much. So you're listening to it and

you say wow this is really rocking. Yeah, well it's the other part. Oh it's the rolling part. It's just is that what's in between the rock? Whenever it's not rocking. Then you got left over your role. Well I'm but sure be curious to hear it, even though I'd completely disapprove of it, because as you know, Western music is the official music of the West, and therefore it is really the only music that I have any interest in. So I hope that after this brief dalliance with Roll music you'll come back to Western music. Well, you've opened my eyes here today and thank you. All right.

I like Roll. I can get the the thu thu thu thu thu thu to thu to to thu thu thoday and thank you. All right. I like roll. Okay. You can get a rubin on a roll. Can you? Can you? Yeah. Because I think it's best on Rye bread. Well, so bitch.

All right. Titz Hannerhan. What's the story? Well, I've been occupying my time selling old Nintendo's and PlayStation's twos. Playstations? I've got a profit of, I think, $2 each. You see, you know how record players come back? Yeah, sure.

Well, so I think, I reckon those are going to come back too. What's that? Playstation's 2s and old Nintendo's and 64s? Or you sell 64s? Where do you sell them on eBay? eBay? Yeah, it is difficult right now. It's not making much money, but... Yeah.

Well, even a successful eBay business is tragically sad. So... Why are you? I'm going to change some minds out there when you see me. I guess so. Well, I that when you see me. I guess so. Well, that broke all our hearts. And what's going on, Collins?

Tell me again your first name. Because you're a new fella in the band, aren't you? Yes, sir. Well, how do you have... Thumper? Correct. What do you play over the cocktail kit?

Look at you, making do with what little fits in that corner. God damn right. Boy, oh boy, how did we meet? I can't remember. We found him in a bassinet about 50 years ago. That's a long time ago. We raised him as a drummer. Do you really? Hell yeah. You specifically raised him? So you're, oh that's wonderful. You've been playing drum since infancy.

Yes sir. He's never left the basement. Wow. First time out, blue. Well, congratulations. It's beautiful out here, isn't it? What a sad life. All right. Well, we're glad to have you here. Well, with that, we've gone all the way around the horn. I do want to mention that Sally Jespa, our dear friend Sally Jespa, was going to... She's great, she's going to be here, but she can't, she has an audition for a dance troup. to their thr. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin. thin. thin. thin. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to be to be to be to be too. that to be to be to be to be to be to be to to me me.

Oh excuse me? Oh is he out there now? Oh no son of them is it? Well this is a fortuitous timing. This is exciting. Okay. All right well let's fucking let's do it. All right. Well this is interesting. How do I even go about explaining this?

Okay, so as you know, I have written a book, I have written a book called, You must buy your wife, at least as much usually as you buy your horse and other poems and observation, humorous and otherwise from a life on the range. And that book has been published by an incompetent publisher of books. the book, I the book, I the book, I the book, I the book, the book, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thus, so thus, so thus, so thi, so th, so thi, so thi, so tho, so tho, so as tho, so as tho, so th, so th, so th, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so th. So, so as th. So, so as th. So, so as th. So, so as th. So, so as th. So, so as th. So, so as th. So, so, so, so, so, so, so as tho, so as thi, so as thi, as thi, as that, as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to as to find the book any place and that's on him. He tried to put it on me, try to tell me I wrote a terrible book but we all know that's not true. Now what I have done in the time since you've last heard from me as I wrote a

new book. Bartleby a brand new book and this one's called. This one is called you still have to buy your wife at least as much jewelry as you buy your horse and even more poems and additional observations humorous and otherwise from a life still being lived on the range by Dalton Wilcox who also wrote the last book by Dalton Wilcox. Now it's new. It's brand new but people know what they're getting themselves into. That's called branding. Now I I set a manuscript of this book over to Russell Shied and you know I haven't heard anything from him I keep calling him and I haven't heard a word

from him. So I came up with a little thing because it worked last time where I called his office and I pretend to be somebody that that. th. it it it it it's th. it's th. it's th. it's th. it's th. it's th. It's th. It's the the the th. It's the the the th. It's new new the the th. It's new new the the the the new new the new new th. It's new new new th. It's new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new the new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new the the the the the the the the new new new new new new new new new new new new new the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. It's th. It's th. It's to be to be to be to be to be to the. It's new. It's new. It's new. It's new. It's new. It's new. It's new. It's new. It's their their I came up with a little thing because it worked last time. Where I called his office and I pretend to be somebody that was. You might recall that his wife had gone missing some years ago. I have no idea the status of that. But what I did was I called him up and I disguised my voice like a goddamn CIA agent I put my hand onell Russell Shine, this is the county coroner's office, we've got a body for him to identify. And I left him the address, and it appears he's come down. Will you show him in? Show him in.

What? Why, this isn't a... Are you kidding? Holy shit! Hello, Russell is not a county coroner's office. Are you, Dalton? Yeah. This, Russell.

You have, you've gone too far this time. I am, I've never, I've never felt anything like this before. This is beyond fury. I don't, I don't, I don't even know. This is like a new emotion. Look at you. A new emotion beyond fury? Yeah. Well well part of that is I'll bet you the feeling of respect for somebody that pulled one over on you beautifully in a way that you fully didn't expect so to be fury laced with respect so not only do you

not have my wife's body for me to identify. Are you disappointed? It's a mixed bag. Uh-huh. But I'm guessing you also have no idea as to her whereabouts. Oh, God, no. No, I haven't spent a moment thinking about her in three years. And she, so she hadn't turned up, Russell?

No, she hasn't turned up. Because I, I don't know,ed up. Because I have that called thinking, I don't know, he might just be confused as to what body does. He might be sitting there on the couch next to his wife right now. I haven't returned to him and the two of them are happy and he can't imagine whose body this is or he's gonna think we found his wife's body. sitting on the couch together. And then somebody called me and said, we have your wife's body here. Yeah.

I wouldn't be here right now. I don't know why you think that would work. Although, you got me down here and every step of the way I was thinking, this seems off somehow. Hey, you did, you something was talking to you in the back of your head. Yeah. But I guess the idea that, you know, I wanted some closure on my wife, I wanted to make sure it wasn't her. That's what makes it, yeah. I was blinded to, and it seems like you skillfully manipulated me.

You see that? I mean, that's what's beautiful about it. . . beautiful about it. I mean that's what works about it. It works so beautifully. You get somebody in their emotional hot spot and you can get them to do just about anything. Have you reported a missing to the Rangers? That's a good question. To the Rangers? The Texas Rangers. No I reported a missing to the police who laughed at me. Oh yeah. They're useless. But no I didn't go I didn't report them to the Texas Rangers. Well give it a them them them them them them them them them them the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their to to to to to to their to to their to to to to to to to to to to to to to do to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to do just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their. their. their. their. their their their their their their their the the the the police. the the police. the the the police. the police. the the the the the the the the the the to didn't go I didn't report them to the Texas Rangers. Well give it a shot. Have you looked for her on the computer? Yeah. Have you tried that? Have I looked for her on the computer?

Have you typed her name into a computer? Have you looked for her that way? Um, she might be in there. Okay, okay, boys. That was maybe the very first thing that I did. That was the beginning of the search, yes. She wasn't in there? No, she wasn't in the computer. Okay. Did you try? I also checked the Tron world. She wasn't there. I also checked know what that is. No. All right, but these are reasonable questions. Did you ask the Rangers? Did you check the computers? I think we're asking great questions. And so in the three years, since you've been down here talking about, you have not seen hiding or hair of your wife?

No, I haven't. Okay. And have you, so are you moving on? What's the story? No, I'm not. Yeah, I'm not moving. Not moving on. You're not moving on. The search continues. Oh, it does. Yes.

Okay. What have you done? Well, I follow leads. Oh, you do. So sometimes you'll get a lead. Someone will say, I thought I saw your wife. You know, in, in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in, in, in, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the the their, so, so, the the their, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi, I'm, I'm, I'm, th........................... the. the. the. the. the. the, I your wife, okay, you know in in a store and she was with a man And they seemed very happy and I think well that can't be my wife. She's she was abducted So you know, so she'd be miserable. She'd be trying to scratch it scratching and clawing to get back to Russell unless unless Unless unless it's some situation where they say act natural or you're dead. Okay, you know? See it's good that you're here on this goddm????? the? the? the? the? the? the? the? the? I? I? I? I? I? I? I?

I thought you already looked on the computer. So he says.

How are you still alive? Bartleby? Yeah. That's a good question, Bartleby. You have carried that? that. I have no other specific answer than that. Let's not forget brain functioning. True enough. Yep. And how have you been, Dalton

murdered anyone? I don't believe I've ever murdered anyone. I know you don't believe that. I've taken care of some monsters if that's what you're asking. Sure. What's the most recent monster? Well I recently took down a Dr. Jeklin and Mr. Hyde? A Dr. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I's. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've.

I've. I'm. I'm. I. I. that's.'re asking. Sure. What's the most recent monster? What's the most recent monster? Well, I recently took down a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. A Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? Yeah. Well, I've, no, I killed an invisible man last night. That's the most recent one, but before that, it was a Dr. Jekyll. And what were the telltale signs that he was a Mr. Hyde who formerly had been a Dr. Jekyll? Well I was trying to park my car and I ended up banging into the car behind me. The next thing I know, of course it does. Bumper came off and what not. Next thing I know, out flies this goddamn Dr. Jeklin' Mr. Higl and Mr. Hyde. Hiding. th. th. th. Hid, th. th. Hi. th. th. th. th. thine, th. thi. thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi thi thi. And I's thi thi thi thi thi their their thi thi thi thi. I thi.

I'm thi. thi. thi. tei. try. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I thi. I. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde losing his mind at me for

knocking his bumper off. Was it two guys or one guy? You don't know what a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is? A Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is? A Dr. Jekly and Mr. Hyde? A doctor? A doctor? A doctor? A doctor. Yeah, but he seemed to be just about ready to transition. He was in the car? He would know, yeah, he was in the car behind me the boss of the bumper. So Mr. Hyde, this guy drinks a potion and then he's like, I'm gonna go for a drive. I'm gonna, you know, I'm about to transform into a hideous beast man. Time to get to get to get to get to get to get the, to get the, the, to get the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, he. Hea, they. He's, the. He's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, they. He's, he's, he's, yeah, he's behind the wheel and just put the top down and let the wind blow through my hair. I guess so? I don't know. Look, I don't look, is that how it works with the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? You don't turn into the Dr. Jekyll and

does unless you actively drink the poison? I don't think that's true. And then he drinks the potion, he becomes Mr. Hyde. Oh, that's what I mean. There's not a Dr. Jekyll potion. That's what I mean then. I caught him in his Dr. Jekyll stage. So he's just a regular guy? Well, he was going to transition into Mr. Hyde. What were what the signs? He was getting real mad. Okay. About its bumper. Now I've seen you get angry. thin. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that's that's that's th. That's thi.

I it, but I'll tell you right now. I'm not a goddamn monster. Sounds like what a monster would say. Isn't that one of your rules? No, they don't say it quite like that. How do they say? They say, oh, put that gun down. What are you talking about? Stuff like that. I haven't said anything like that. I'm just making it it a goddamn clear. And I'm not a that I'm not a that I'm not a that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that that that that that that that that that that that one makes me think you're one. Well, but anyway, yeah. Sorry I was confused about which is the doctor Jekyll is a nice guy and Mr. Hyde is the monster. I see a doctor once a year. That's one of the reasons I'm still alive. You're still alive. That's actually smart. Trying to think of more reasons. Yeah. What does that doctor say you? Keep going. Keep going. That's good. All right.

That's good. What is this? Why did you make me come down here under the worst possible circumstances? Oh, well I came down here to find out if you'd had an opportunity to read my manuscript for my new book, which is called you still have to buy your wife, at least as much jewelry as you buy your horse and even more poems and additional observations, humorous and otherwise from a life life, to to to to cox, Welsler, The Last Book. Have you had a chance to read that? Tino, I hate myself for this, but I read a lot of it. You did! Hot damn! Well, just morbid curiosity. Thank you very much. It's morbid curiosity that has led to some of the greatest literary achievements of all time. Such as Moby-di Who was the morbidly curious person in that scenario? Who ever read that book first? So I'm glad you checked it out. Well, well, well, well. Because now you're the first person that's a crack this thing open. We're about

to hear a review. Well, that makes me angry. Why does that make you angry? I wish one other person had shared this pain. Because now I'm going to be the only person who's ever even looked at a page of it. Oh, yeah, you are. I myself have not had an opportunity. No, I mean, for all time. What are you talking about? No one's got a bott. book. That's your fault you didn't put it in any book. This book, worst title I can imagine. It's a perfect title because it's alludes to the previous book and makes clear that it's

more than an illusion. Plus also, and I can't believe you did this, you put even more recipes in it. It's a lot more recipes in there. It's mostly recipes. It's largely recipes. Plus there's I think I put in 120 blank pages for people to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. It's more more more more more. It's more more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's more. It's. It's. It's more. It's more. It's more.

It's largely recipes plus there's I think I put in 120 blank pages for people to put in their own recipes, which is a great idea You know what I'm saying? People people have their own recipes Sure, why why would people write their own recipes in this thumb book? Well, well then you don't lose them because you know where the book? They're in a book. They're probably already in a another book. Why would they put them in thus? the book? the book? the book? the book? the book? the book? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh? Oh? Oh. Oh? Oh? Oh. Oh. Oh? Oh? Oh. Oh? Oh. Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh? Oh. Oh? Oh? Oh?

Because then you can get rid of that book. You can get rid of that other book. Yeah. See that? Between the two books, I don't think that's the one being gotten rid of. Why are you discussing the logic of this? Your wife lives in a computer? Okay. Have you got you to get you there? Have you got to get you the there the the the the to to to to to to to to to get the to to their to get their their their their their their their their their their their their the book the book?

I. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the it might know where your wife I haven't tried that I don't know that a shot you're gonna give them a shot sure why not her names Alexa by the way Siri where's my

wife that may be beyond my abilities at the moment oh too bad the search continues the search continues I like she says it may be yeah yeah I'm like she's a thin something. Thank you, thank you, drug-addled cowboy. Listen, which one? Oh, that's me, the needles still sticking out of the arm. Sometimes I got a tauna over here. Sometimes I take a recipe out of the library. Oh, you just check out one recipe from the library. It's delicious, but then I have to bring it back and I

Never make that dish again. Well, this is precisely a situation that my book could come in handy for. If you check a recipe out of the library, I could write it into my book before you have to return it to the library. Another thing you can do at that book. Yep. Seems as pressing flowers. You make that meal and then press a little bit in the meal into the book so you got a visual representation of what you're at. Right, so you just squish some food in the book. That's right. That's great. Well, maybe they can market this book. Well, maybe they can market this book.

Now listen, another thing with this book, and I can't believe I noticed a lot of the poems that were in the first book and you just sprinkled in the year 2018 into a lot of them. Right. Mm-hmm. That's correct. Yeah, that's not a new poem. That's not a new poem. That's not a new poem. Yeah, that's my most famous poem. It's the same old poem. You just put it in there all throughout the poem. And sometimes I even put it in a place where now I got rhyme the the the to to to to to to the to to to the to to the the to the the to the the to the the the the out the poem. And sometimes I even put it in a place where now I got a rhyme with it. That's a lot of work. It's hard to find rhymes for 2018. Is it really? Well, frequently I just rhymed it again with 2018, which is fine. Funny face bean. Funny face bean. Great spleen. Oh, well if you're going to say any word that rhymes with Ene, your conscience is not clean. Well, that's good. See that? I'll put that in there. This is why I sent it to you. That's good advice from a publisher.

No one's going to buy. Here's my advice. Okay, all right. Pretend this book never happened. No one's going to buy this book? That is the most insulting and ridiculous thing. Why haven't you tried a different publisher or have you? I have tried all of the publishers. Oh, and what did they say? I can't hear from anybody. Nobody's called me back. Why do you think that is? I have no idea why that is? I'll fucking

ten copies right now. Ten copies right now. There we go. We just sold ten booksthose copies from you. Okay, I'm selling them out of markup. Why don't you buy it from him because that would be 11 books sold? I don't understand how Thomas works. But yeah, I don't know why I didn't hear from it because you know what the problem is? Everybody knows. Let's just call out the elephant. Uh-huh. Yeah. Publishers are to a man city slickers. Every single goddamn one of them. You literally. Because. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that would that that that that that that that that that that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thooooooooooooooo. I that that that that would that that would that would that would that would thi. I thi man, city slickers. Every single goddamn one of them. You literally, you, I mean, you're not gonna argue with that. You can't get a book, a job publishing books if you're not a goddamn city slicker, isn't that right? And you, you don't deny being a city slicker.

Please don't deny it. Uh, okay, I don't deny being a city slicker. I rest my case. Have you ever thought about self-publishing the book? I thought that's what I was doing. I send it to you. I'm the... What... How do you think that's self-publishing? I wrote it and I send it to you. You...

Sending is not publishing. Well, that's city slicker logic. I don't know... I'm not sure what else you mean, but anyway, here's my question. Can we get it into the Amazon? What? Have you heard anything that I've said for the past years that we've known each other? No, I can't get it. I mean, I guess it's possible to get it. Hot damn. The book is going to Amazon. Folks, you can pre-order my new book. But no one's going to buy it, darling.

Sure they can, they can pre-order it. Well Russell, thank you so much for buying my new book and I'm excited about it and agreeing to put it on Amazon. And I'm glad that you loved itrifying delusional behavior like you've you've really you've really gone on a decline since the last time I've seen you What are you talking about this is now it's immediate like I just I just said how terrible the book is I want nothing to do with it and you're thanking me for loving it and publishing it well because I heard the one thing you said and I'm try not to hear the others the o' thi th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th.

You said you could get it on Amazon, didn't you say? Somewhat healthy that you're admitting that. So thank you very much. All right, well good, so that's exciting. That's a big development. I'm glad I fooled you in to come down here to see your wife's dead body. Well now, Jesus. Why moldy old TV show? Oh, you idiot.

And this show is the greatest TV show that's ever been on television. We're going to talk about the pilot episode of Bananza right now. This is a podcast called Bananas for Bananza. Okay, Bananza where it's all these guys pretending to be cowboys, they're standing in front of a painting the wild west or whatever. Man, oh man. Looks like somebody needs to be educated about Bonanza, and your education is about to start. We're going to talk about episode one of Bonanza. A Rose Forlato.

Why don't you hang around and learn a few things about Bonanza? This episode has everything. A chantruse? A shantrus? What? A singer. Do you mean a shantous? What? Shantus? I believe it's a shantruce. And there's some mining tycoons and a couple of bare-nuckle

brawls and a whole lot of explaining about things that happened in the past. Oh and Chinese people. So this one has everything. And folks, you've got to watch it. All right. The ponderosa. I can the the thosososos. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. And I th. And th. And th. And th. And this this this th. th. this th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the show. the show. the show. the show. the the the the the the the the the the the the show. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tos. tos. tus. tus. tus. tus. tus. tus. tus. tus. tus. tus. th. the th. the th. th. to watch it. All right, the Ponderosa, I can't believe you have a home on the Ponderosa. You come sometime. Yep, I will. And this show takes place in 1859. Keep that, tuck that away in your brain for a later moment. All right, let's go through. Seen by scene.

You're going to learn a lot. Yeah, no, that I don't get good cell reception here, so I don't know how I'm gonna get an Uber home. Yeah, no, that's true. I'm sought to that. The episode. You saw to that. You never get cell reception within a mile here. What did you?

How did you arrange that? It wasn't easy? You know what it sounds likedicts? What? City-slick and behavior. Well, not exactly. See, what I did was a strap from dynamite to a cell tower. I'd like to see you try that in the city. Well, this here is a show starts with Ben Cartwright. That's Lauren Green character and his eldest son Adam and they're just riding horses and talking about stuff. You know in those days a Hollywood actor used to have to ride a horse. These days they don't.

Anyways, they're talking about how they got to move a thousand head of prime stock down from the high pasture. Boy, isn't that beautiful? A real cowboy problem. See that? That's like, that makes me turgit. And then that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's a good. that's a good. theoomk. that's a gooda. that's a gooda. that's a good. that's a good. that's a good. that's a good. that's a that's a they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. thaauicea. tha. that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a t. together. together. that'sa. that'sa. that'sa. that'sa. that'sa. that'sa. that'sa. makes me turge it. See that? Yeah. And then that's the first scene. Great scene.

Great way to start off. Here's a piece of trivia. This is the first episode of Bonanza to feature the burning map in the opening credits. It's the first. It's in every episode. It's in every episode. So why wouldn't it be in the first one? It isn't the first one, that's what I'm saying. But it's not remarkable that this is the first. Why are you arguing this? You're not wrong.

This is the first episode ever to feature the burning map. Because it's the first episode. They had never done it previously. Well, it's the first episode. to talk through the whole show minute by minute? Maybe. Is that what this thing is? I don't know how you're supposed to do this.

This is the first episode. Why are you doing it? Why are you doing it? Why am I doing what? Because I'm trying to call attention to the greatest the first time that ever the first episode of Bonanza being the first time that ever appeared in an episode of Bonanza's. I appreciate that, Bargain, but that's some nice trivia about this episode.

Well, this is the first time someone's made that point in this episode. Now you're getting in the spirit. There's a lot of milestones going on, Roger. I'm giddy just sitting here. You want me to move through the episode faster? I can do that. Then in the second scene we meet Haas. He's a second brother and he's what a city slicker might call overweight, but he's meant to be a brawny giant. Now, why would he wear that crazy hat that calls more attention to him? He's not hiding the fact that he's gigantic. Well, he can't hide the fact that he's gigantic, but why would you, if you're like, you know, a seven foot, you know, circus strongman, why are you going to wear like a two foot hat? Well, it makes you two feet taller. I don't even understand the question.

Yeah, then you're nine feet circus strong man. It's proportional. Would you have him wear like a little tiny hat? Well, then, because then he'd just look ridiculous. Yeah, tiny hat, vertical stripes. I guess I was thinking he'd wear like a little yogi bear hat. Yeah, I mean, that's just ridiculous. Yeah, maybe you should have worn like a birthday party hat. Well now you're just off to one side. Yeah, you. Yeah, you you. you. you. you. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. hat always looks like a walrus.

And I don't recommend it. All right, well, let's you know what a walrus is. I don't. Well, I may not know it. I may not know everything there is to know about a walrus. Like what a walrus is deep inside, but I've seen them. Well, I guess we'll get to the first clip because I've chosen a clip from this show that I think really will help the the the the the th th th th th th th th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, the, the, the, the, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, ty, togy, togy, togy, togu, ti, togu. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to the first clip, because I've chosen a clip from this show that I think really will help people understand this. This is a, how do I even explain this? Oh, boy. First of all, this comes right after a bare-nuckle brawl. First of all, first bare-nuckle brawl the episode. And this is a scene in which now it's three men,

four men, living on the Ponderosa, a father and his three sons, and there's no women there and they've got only person they have to cook for them is Hop Singh. Now Hop Singh is a Chinaman and he has been it's been established already before this that he is the best damn cook this side of San Francisco. They didn't know what good cooking was till HopSing come along. They really need Hopsing. And now, so in this scene, boy, oh boy, it's beautiful. It's a real showdown between Ben Cartwright, played by Lauren Green and Hopsing, and you'll see how he handles it. He handles it like a real man of the whip. I have well, I don't know, what do you mean by that? Because he's a good cook. All right, let's watch this clip now.

From Rose for Lata. Hopsin? Where did that devil you're hiding, you're celestial skygazer? You got four hungry man who want to know it's for dinner? Yow, y'all, y'all, ytime have to yell? Right, do I have to yell? Ha ha ha ha ha! I go. I go away now. Hopsin! Wait a minute!

Hopsine! Wait a minute, Hobson, you can't do that? Why, if you left here, I'd waste away the way to the shatter. You know that? You tell the old man, he speaks soft, not yell, then maybe a hop-sing stay. Paul, I'm powerful hungry. I ain't had but a couple three breakfast since morning. Besides, Paul, you know as well as I do, old hop-sings the best day and cook this side of San Francisco. There it is. Won't you go ahead and apologize to him?

He's got to apologize to a Chinese man. Oh, this is right. He's right, Paul. This is cutting edge. We never know what cooking was like to have Hopsin come here. Yep. Oh, I sure am hungry, Paul. Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it. He's got an idea. Hopsin? Very, very, very sorry. That's how you do it. Shit, very quick dinner. Rose Pee? Rose Pigg. Did you say roast pig. There we go. How about that scene? I have some apologize to a Chinese. to to to to to to to to to to to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to a to smell. Don't smell. Don't smell. Don't smell. Don't smell. Don't smell smell smell. Don't smell smell. Don't smell smell smell. Don't smell. Don't smell. Don't smell. Don't smell. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't.

Ben Cartwright is placed in an impossible position. He's got to apologize to a Chinese man. He Kobayashi marud that. You see how he handled it? And there's a moment there when you're like, how's he gonna handle this? Is he gonna apologize to a Chinese man? You can see it flash across his face. Humiliating, it's a showdown. I have some notes. Okay. Why is already been made? Why is everybody acting like they're at the Winter Garden Theater? Like they're there everyone is is like belting it out to the gods. Yeah, right? Well, it's television. That's a good question. In those days, people used to sit farther back from their televisions. Also, the camera used to use a real zoom in lenge and get I don't. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, the, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the back from their televisions. Also, the camera used to use a real zoom-in lenge and get, I don't know, about, what, 100 yards back, I believe?

That's right, so as not to spook the actors. With their lenges. And I, speaking to spooking the actors, I'd just like to appreciate what we froze on. Oh yeah, just look at the look, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, to, to, to, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the th. the to to th. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the th. I th. I th. I th. I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi demented guy. He's so excited about food, I get it. He looks like he's gonna eat the chef. He says he's only had a couple three breakfast since morning. He's got to keep your energy up when you're out on the range. That's a man, a man eats like that. That's beautiful. So you don't find this disgusting. A. A mannip. A th. A th. A th. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. th. A th. He's th. He's going. He's going. He's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the pick I like a roast pick racist caricature of a Chinese person what are you talking about but this actor was what are you talking about I don't even understand the broken English and you know and then lawn green when he talks back to him it's it's offensive you don't

find this offensive I mean first of all I don't know what it is established that he's a good cook so that's a nice compliment for all the Chinese people and then how is it a nice compliment for all the Chinese people how is it not it elevates them all to cooks also Lauren Green talked back in Chinese no you see that that was culturally sensitive he he apologized to him in his own language that's right he took the time to learn his offensive dialect yeah I didn't even think about it that way but you're the the the the the the the the the to the to to to the the the the the to the to the the to the to the the the the to to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to to to toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. I to me. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. to. to. to. to. to. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. to. I. the the. the the. the the. the the. the the. the the. the the. the the. the the the the the the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm his offensive dialect. Yeah. I didn't even think about it that way, but you're right. But yeah, he's there and he's got to apologize. And you can see it's a real dilemma and he comes up with just the way to do it. And Hopsing appreciates the apology and walks off and goes and cooks.

He solves the situation and hangs on that night. I'll bet you it was. And they avoided bloodshed. They sure did. Would have been bloody if I'm saying I hadn't accepted the apology. Do you guys think this is real? Think what is real? Bonanza, the way you're talking about it, it makes it seem like these were real people. It's not now, but it did happen. You think this is a based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based based is a thia based is a think this is a based on history like historical document?

I think it's autobiographical. Look at their clothes. Auto biographical? Yeah. Who wrote it? The writer? Right and who was that? I don't know his name. I'm not. But do you think it's one of these guys? It's a paw or a little Joe? It has to be one of them otherwise how would they know what happened? Right, right. Yep. So you think when it says written by up there that's probably a pseudonym? I don't I don't cotton to your city slicker. Well I'm saying they're using he's using a false moniker. How's that? That sounds much better. Yeah, okay so so this guy from the 1800s he's like I don't want to join the union, so I'll just use this fake name. Excuse me, Shine, may I direct you to a television program called Little House on the Fucke and Prairie.

Here, here. Written by Laura Ingalls Wild, a lady who wore big flowing floral dresses on the field. You couldn't tell her from a daffodil. It was real. It was real. I just about got blown up when the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, th, th, th, th, th, I, I, th, I, th, I, I, th, I, I, th, th, I, I, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, I, I, tho, th. I, th, th, th, th. I, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I's, I's, I's, I, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, tho, tho, tho, tho.. And, thooooooooooooooo.. And, tha.. And, tho. And, tho.. And, tha, blown up when they blew up something on that. What's that? Little House on the Prairie? I was driving in my Bronco and I slipped off the road and they were, you know, three, two, one and it blew up a thing. You're kidding me? Nope. And I had to replace the Bronco. You did? Michael Landon himself yelled at me. You're kidding me! And then we went home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home home th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I? the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, th. the. the. the. the. th. the. th. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. and shared his wife. That's... I've heard that about him.

So that pretty much proves my point. It sure does. What a misfortune to be around the set of Little House in the Prairie when they were filming one of the many explosions. Let me ask you this, Dalton. How do you feel about the fact that Michael Landon started a movie called I was a teenagea wa wa wa wa the the the the tod. th. teenage werewolf. What, wait a minute, he was in that picture? That's right. He played the titula teenage werewolf. Well, that makes me very angry.

Yeah. Who it makes me angry at is a son of a bitch who canceled Bonanza. Because then it wouldn't have made him had to go on to do that. Oh, he did talk about it in one second. But first I want to tell you, in the very next scene we find out the plot of this episode. Man, it is a dilly. Holy shit. They're, the mining tycoons in Virginia City, it turns out what their plan is, is they want to get their hands on some of the timber, on their mining operations as they say, they need timber to support their tunnels and shafts.

I don't know how the sensors let that pass, but they put that in there. It was a different time. It was a different time. I don't think maybe must not hurt it. But, and so to do that because their trees, their precious trees. And so they come up with a plan to do it where they send a beautiful actress, Lata, forget her last name, a crab tree, a lot of crab tree, and she goes to the Ponderosa, and her job is to lure one of the cartwright boys

into Virginia City where they're gonna hold him captive, and they're gonna bargain with his life, that's the trees, their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the trees. That's the plan. That's exciting right. That's exciting episode. It's demented. Wow that it's a it's an evil plan and no doubt about it. It's cruel. Seems like a fairly typical kidnapping plan to me. They have something you want. Yep. You take something of theirs. That's right. You tell them if they give you what you want in the first place you'll give them back the thing. There you go. That's the plot. You've summed it up beautifully, Bartleby. They did this on Little House on the Prairie a coupleonne DeCarlow, who plays a lot of crafty. It's goddamn Ivan DeColow. Now I'm doing a Munsters podcast, you know

that, right? I didn't know that. Are you doing a podcast about the Munsters? That's right. Oh that's gonna make you mad. I was, listen to me, that goddamn show the Mun no fucking around hold on I'm doing it to defame it that guy you better be you better be because no television show or movie in the history of entertainment has ever glorified monsters more than the god damn monsters that show was made for the purpose of making god damn vampires Frankenstein's and wherewolves seem cuddly and cute and non-threatening I mean the number of people who because they had seen that show got lowered into interactions with monsters and then eaten or otherwise destroyed must be in the dozens of hundreds and it makes me furious at that show existed and that Yvonne De Carlo went on to play

literally a character who married a Frankenstein. God damn it! And she herself was part vampire, some shit. Well her grandfather was a vampire. Her grandfather was a vampire. You know as a child, I will say one thing against the monsters, as a child it frustrated me that they had a dragon living under the stairs. Yeah, and every once in a while the stairs would lift up and you'd see his glowing eyes and he'd shoot out some flames. And I remember as a kid I was always frustrated that he never came out of the, from underneath

the stairs and like, I wanted to see him, you know. You wanted to see them. Yeah, they just teased you with this idea of the dragon. Yeah. Well, it sounds like you two fellows would be perfect That's, yeah, that's right. You're doing an episode by episode of the Monsters? But it's an episode by episode takedown. First in the pilot episode. You better be a brutal, brutal takedown.

That's right. Their Chinese cook comes out in the first episode and they gotta yell. I'm sure he does. Well, Lata... Lata successfully ensnares Little Joe, that's Michael Landon, bringing him back to Virginia City. They have a little bit of dialogue that I found interesting where he's... He says something nasty about Yankees. And she says, what's so wrong about a Yankee? And he says, ma'am, if you don't already know, what's the use in me telling you?

It is 1859. So, Little Joe supports slavery. And I think... It's just good to note. Well, a lot of... It was a different time. It was a different time. It was a different time. It was a different time. Well, now, little Joe goes into Virginia City where he meets Hopling, Hop Singh's brother. Oh, come on. Nope. You're making it up.

Nope. Hop Singh's brother is named Hopling. And he's just as comically Chinese. Virginia City, by the way, is overrun with Chinese. And it seems to be literally thousands of tents full tens of tens of tens of tens of to tents to theets to theets to to theets to to to to thea to to to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be tooes. tooing. tooing. tooing. to to to to to to to to tooing. tooing. tooing. to to to tooing. to to tooing. tooing. tooing. tooing. tooing. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too. the the the the the the thi. the thin. thi. the the. the the. the the too. the the too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. to too. to to be literally thousands of tents full of Chinese doing laundry. There was a lot of laundry in Virginia City back in those days. And only the Chinese were qualified to do it, isn't that correct? Well, they got the jobs. They had the jobs. They were licensed and qualified. And had ancient laundry. It's not just that they were foreign immigrants of another race who will look down upon, and that's the only jobs they they they they they they they they they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. And th. And th. And thi. And their thi. And thi. And thi. And only thi. And only thi. And only thi. And only were were thi. And only th. And only their. And only their. And only their. And only their. And only their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their their their their their their th. And th. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And thi. And th. And could get, it's that they were the only ones who are qualified. Oh, these Chinese got a real corner on the laundry market. The white men couldn't do it. They were dying for those jobs.

Couldn't do it. Couldn't do it. Well, anyways, and then what happens? A lot of, oh, you know, blah, blah, blah. That was my favorite part of the episode. That's also the third Chinese brother. Hop sang, hop blang, and blah, blah, blah. Well, Lada's job is to keep Little Joe busy in her hotel room and she talks about her guiding principles in life which is greed, greed. So wait, the mining guys, they hired an actress to...

Yes, one of the most beautiful and most renowned actresses in the world, as they refer to her. And her job is to take a wagon, and out of control wagon, through the Ponderosa and break a wheel. That's part of the plan, breaking a wagon wheel. Why did it need to be an actress? Why can it just be a pretty prostitute who could lie good. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, I do know what you mean and the answer is because there is a beautiful scene in this movie Where we get to see part of a lot of crab trees stage show I see it had been a prostitute That would have been actually we get to see quite a minute of it. to see? Yep, you sure do. Funny thing too by the way. Little Joe says I hope you'll come to to the. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the to the the the to the to the the to to the to to to the to to to the to to the to to. to. the the to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. t what could keep me away. And then he shows up just in time for the last song. Wait, so, okay, so he knows she's very late.

He knows she's an actress. Yeah, oh yes, she says that right up front when her wagon wheel breaks. She says, I'm a lot of crab tree. They go, a lot of crab tree. That's part of what gets him to take her all the way into Virginia City. You'll do anything for a pretty actress. It's a ridiculous plan. Well, evidently not because it got down worked. So anyways, okay. Now, Hop Singh, or Ling, Singh saves the day inadvertently, typical Chinese man, but he stumbles

into success. He tells the Cartwright boys that Little Joe is on his way to Virginia City, and so the the thi....... thi. thi. thi. Well, thi. Well, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, thi, that, that, the that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, thi, thi, that, that, that, that, that, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, well, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, that, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's. He tells the Cartwright boys that Little Joe is on his way to Virginia City and so the Cartwright boys scramble together a plan and they go into Virginia City and Ben Cartwright and they they they're at the Sazarack and they they confront the line by one of the 10 tycoons. Alpheus Troy. And they, uh, they confront and we have a good old-fashioned goddamn gunfight. Let's watch that now. This is a damn good.

Who? A showdown. A showdown in the satirac. Where is he? Where is he? Where's my son? May I ask you, Mr. Cartwright. For any questions you may questions you may have to my friend, Langford Poole. Take your time turning around with him.

Mr. Poole, as you well know, both 12 notches on his gun. He seems to have some problems focusing. He does not look well. He just woke up from a nap. Go home before I kill you You tell me to go home You with the smell on you the tarnel house A flesh rotting and stinking in the sun. Yeah, that's a good lie.

You gonna die for saying that to me. Oh, man. You're gonna die. You have any argument pool. You don't have you're gonna die. You have any argument, Poole. You don't have it with my father. You have it with me. One cartwright is just about the same to me as another. What an insult. Look at that price. Sweat? No sweat.

Yep. Gotta do the close up of the eyes. Who shot who? I don't Yep. We've got to do the close-up of the eyes. Who shot who? I don't know. Yes, I do. Goddard. Check please. The end of length for true. There we go. Thank you so much. That's good. What a gunfight that was. That was a good one, ma'am. Yeah, that was good. And I'll tell you, that is what I say to this day anytime somebody tells me to go home, I say, you tell me to go home, you with the smell on you you of the charnel house of flesh rotting and stinking in the sun. And then sometimes I do go home. Is that a grave insult do you thin' to you? Would you be willing? Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, wa, wa, wa, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the the, the the the the the the the they. they. they. they. tell, they. they. tell me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to, to you, would you be willing? Well, who am I asking? I'd shoot of course. Of course. Yeah. I like that they that they showed each other their

crotches right before they started shooting at each other. Oh I think they might have been showing each other to guns. What? Never mind. Do you think when they were casting the part of Adam they put did because what's more manly than blandness. You understand what I'm saying? He looks incredibly manly with an expressionless face. Do you think he's manlier than Lorne Green? Yeah. That's not possible. That is the ultimate. You tell me to go home with the, oh so manly. Oh is Lauren Green in here? Oh, I looked up what a charnel house is, by the way. It is a vault or building where human skeleton remains are stored.

I got one of those. Often built near churches for depositing bones that are unearthed while digging graves. So that is quite a serious accusation. I didn't think the West could get any worse. And they have a special skeleton building. Sure th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th they they they th th th they they th th th they th they th th th th they th. tho tho tho tho thoom tho I didn't think the West could get any worse and then they have a special skeleton building. Sure they do. When you're digging graves sometimes you got to dig up other bones and stick them in a house. Is digging graves in this? Digging graves, yep, digging graves played Langford Pool. Oh that's digging graves. I thought I looked familiar with him. That was him. Actually, here's an interesting piece of trivia. The actor that played Langford Pool, he was never on Bonanza again playing the role

of Langford Pool, but he was on Bonanza three more times. Playing three different guys. That's how it was. He's just got one of those faces. He's got three of those faces. Well, I don't know how much more I need to to tell you about you you the th you the the the the to to to the to to their you their you their you their you their you their you their you the you the those faces. Well I don't know how much more I need to tell you about this episode except that there's a really exciting chase scene through the laundry tents where a lot of Chinese get spoken. Thousands of Chinese people doing mountains of laundry is a takes up a lot of this episode. There's a very funny

moment where Little Joe says no ticky no washing him brother I just about busted the gut. Are you you can't, that really th. th. the th. the th. th. the the th. th. the the th. th. the the the the th. the th. the the th. the they. they. they. they. they. they. they. th. th. thi. thi. th.

Are you you can't that really happens? Yeah he hides in a pile of laundry and and hopling is all upset and he's mad because the bad guys ransack his tent but they don't find little Joe and little Joe pops out of this pile of laundry and he's just having a time of his life. He's just laughing and he says no ticky no washing and I'll tell you I'm just about. Who's he's he. Who he. He says he.the... Oh he says it to the person who appreciated the most, Hopling. And Hopling can't argue because he's right basically. Well that is probably policy. What does it even, I don't understand why he's saying that. He's hiding in some laundry. He doesn't get found, he pops out, he pops out, no ticky no washi. What is it what is in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the he? he? Is is is is is is is is the the the the the the the the the he? He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says.

He's is. He's is. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says is. He says is. He says is. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He says. He's is. He no washey. That's right. What what is it in response to? It was a moment of exuberance when he knew that men who were coming to kill him had failed in their mission So it was like a harray. Yes expressed slightly differently. Yeah, I well, it's very funny. I just that's all I know is real funny and then at then at some point, one of these Chinese guys' tents get set on fire for hard to think of a reason.

And then there's... Racism? Then there's a big fight. And then I'll play the very end of the episode here. This is the very end of a rose for Lata, this is Adam and Lotta. Prior to this, Adam has helped Lada onto a horse and threaten to break her arm. Wait a second, I thought she was with little Joe. So you thought, now. Right up till this scene. Yep, a little bit of a subplot is a smoldering intensity between Adam and Lotta, which comes to fruition in this scene right. He's starting to break her arm in. He's, the the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, that-a, tho, tho, tho, tho, thre-a, thre-a, thre-a, thre, thre, thre, the, the, the, the, th. Wait, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, th, tho, the, tho, tho, tho, tho, thre, thre, thre's thre-a, threa, threaten, threaten, threaten, threaten, threaten, threaten threaten threaten threaten threaten threaten threaten threaten threaten threatened threatened to to fruition in this scene right here. He's starting to break her arm and what else? He helped her under a horse and then he threatened to break her arm.

That's two different scenes, of course. She's had many scenes with Little Joe. A lot of scenes with Little Joe up to this point. Mm-hmm. Staring at her. Staring her down. She's thinking, she's staring back. Ben and Haas. Perfect wingman. Sometimes you just need a push and that push needs a tap. Now look at how he romances her, establishes a connection. We're watching his brothers get on their horses for a good long time.

God, imagine being a hoss's horse. God damn right. He just kisses her. No words exchanged. And then, the coup to grow. Goodbye forever. You didn't even go out the door. Nope. So long, lady. Good luck with that Frankenstein you're going to marry.

Tips his hat. That's it. She just had her world rocked. Look how they're galloping like in Versailles. One thing you really want to do when you're out riding is make sure you have horses riding at the same speed on either side. Very important. That's the end of the show right there. How did they, how did anyone ever watch it again? Because it was on a week later. Those clips, the most boring thing I've ever seen.

What are you talking about? Here's the most interesting thing to me, okay. Is that Adam, the panel Roberts, I noticed that it's Adam. Okay. Yeah. His face is on the same continuum as like Greg Brady and Carson Daly. Oh yeah, right? I can see that.

I'd throw a Brad Garrett in there if you'd love me. That's on the extreme end. It's still on the spectrum. True. Just like maybe some people in here. Got that out. That's the face, we'll cut that out. So you're saying that. You're talking about the face family.

Yeah, he's in a face family. The face family. It's like Anderson Cooper, Breck and Meyer and Bill Maher. That's a face family. That's right. What were you going to say, Barton, I was think that is what he's pointing out. Well you got me that bottle beep. Yeah he's a that's got that's a real manly performance right there. I like that. You know I do I think we've all done

that with women just somebody they the only conversation you've had before involved threatening to break her arm and then you just stare at her and kiss her and walk out forever. I had seen just like with an ex-wife. We broke up I had accidentally got injected my whole face with Novocaine. Oh it was just like that. You could have I mean if you took Polaroid after Polaroid because it was the 70s then it would look just like yeah. Can you walk me through this accident? That it? that? that? that? that? And it was just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just that. And it. And it. And it. that. that. that. that. that. And it was just just just just that. And it was just that. And it was just that. And it was just just just that. And it was just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just. And it was just just. And it was just. And it was just. And it was just. And it was just. And it was just. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it. And it was just. And it was just. And it was just. And it was just. And it was just just. And it was just just like. And it was just like, it was just like, it was just like, it was just like, it was just like, it was just like, it was just like, it was just like, it was just just because it was the 70s, then it would look just like that. Can you walk me through this accident? Yeah, my dentist wanted to pull out a tooth and I was drunk and I said, no you ain't and we got in a fight and my forehead hit the needle and knock my glasses off.

Yeah. And then, uh, and then there was another one stuck to my hand because I'd had a chocolate bar and it was stuck. Anyway, another one what? Another needle? Stuck in the chocolate? And stuck to my hand. So when I took all my glasses got me in the cheek. So it more looked like I kind of had like palsy or a stroke. Sure. Mm-hmm. Yep. Well that's my fault I asked. Leave that in. Folks, you gotta wash your hands before you go to the dentist. We will leave that in. Well, a strong argument could be made that we should have taken a break a while ago,

but we'll take one now. Is this the first break? I'm afraid so. It doesn't matter, right? Who gives a shit. The next act will be short well everything's going fine and we'll be right back well all right we're back after just a perfect length first act of this podcast and now here we're gonna do are you ready for this this bottle bode of this exciting well I'm. I'm ready. What we're gonna do now is a

cowboy poetry workshop now this is how. I was born really. What do you mean this again? Do we do this last time? Yeah. Well this is what this is what cowboy poets do. We share our works and progress with one another and we because no one else wants to hear? What do you this? the cowboy. Yeah. the cowboy. the cowboy. to. the cowboy. to. the co. to. the co. to. the co. the. to. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the to. to. to. to. to. to. the to. to. to. to. the to. the the tho. to hear. Pointers and tips. What do you mean no one else wants to hear? Just Cowboys do this for one? It's great you have each other for this. Yeah, that's right. And you can weigh in too, by the way, as a publisher, you can get your opinion. And specifically these poems are about Bonanza.

the poems that we've written are on the subject of Bonanza. I did not know. Oh, you didn't know that? I didn't know. I did not know this podcast would be about Bonanza when I wrote. My poem about Bonanza. You're kidding me? No. That's an extraordinary coincidence. Yes. That's magical. All right. Well, I did know. Yeah. Right what you know. Right what you know and you know Bonanza. Damn fine. All right. Shall I go first? Yes. My poem, dang it, I forgot to give it a goddamn title. Well, I'll tell you what it is at the end. All right. I didn't realize your poems had titles. Oh, my poems always have the title. The really spend that much time on the title. I spend more time in the title the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the poem itself. thoom. thoom. thoom. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the poem.oomomomomomomom.oom.oom.oom. ti. tioamoam ti. tioamoamoamoamoam tioomoomoomoomoomoomoem ti poem itself. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. tthat descriptive though, are they? You don't really spend that much time on the title? I spend more time in the title than the poem itself.

That makes sense, I guess. By the time we get to the end of this poem, it'll be obvious the title should be. Like the one where you have sex with the hole in that one. Oh, there you go. See, that's our campfire sound effect. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Nice and loud. That's how it is out there.

Gather around a campfire and read each other our poems. But it could be a little quieter I think. All right. Here we go. A true cowboy of the American West doesn't need TV. He likes campfires best. If he wants to watch some ranchers working on the land, he can look out his damned window and then go lend a hand. But what about those ignorant city-slick and jackasses?

How could cowboys educate the stupid, stupid masses? Bananza, banza, a real no-boshza. Four real men living on the Ponderosa, doing what they want to and doing what they're supposed to. Adam has a face, but it ain't too expressive. Haas is a giant and that there is impressive. Little Joe is pretty, too pretty if you ask me. But the cartwright I like best is Ben, tough and fair and free. He's a hell of a ranch a ranch a ranch a ranch and you'll regret it if you make him mad. He's got more good qualities than a short poem convention but there's one thing about him that's caught my attention.

Ben Cartwright has buried three wives. Because they died. Something ended their lives. The story goes that childbirth is the thing that killed the first. The second died by Indian, because Indians are the worst. The third fell off a horse and was that way dismembered. But except for old Ben Cartwright, there's no one else remembers. No one else can tell the tales of how these women died. Is it possible that when because Ben ain't no dummy. Maybe his second was a black lagoon creature. He'd have killed her too.

Yep, that a teacher. The third one, a werewolf, who knows? You get the point. The ponderosa is too nice a place to have monsters in the joint. Ben Cartwright is smart. He put safety before romance. type of guy who probably keeps a stake of wood down his pants, which I do in case I'm going to run into any vampires. Well that's my poem and I'm going to thank you very much. What should the poem be? Ben Cartwright buried three wives.

That's a good title. You don't want to go with do not read? Why would you call it that? Because that might inhibit people from reading it. It's just some city slicker humor. Oh. Listen, as terrifying is that... Keep the campfire going. We're still out at the campfire. As terrifying as that was...

Terrifying? I think a new level of do you mean? Of course you do. That's what a cowmord does at night. Just sits around and stares at the fire? Of course and he imagines things burning. Like unless he's on watch then he stares away from the fire to see if anything's going on with the cows. That's exactly right. Take turns. Take turns and watch. What's a what's a sort of cow situation that happens at night that he needs to get involved in? Given birth, running away, sexing. Why does he talk about cows? We're talking about the cows. Why does he need to get

in the mating? Why does he need to get involved in the mating? In case the cow needs? the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to ha. to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha to ha takes. takes. takes. takes takes. takes takes takes takes takes takes takes. takes takes takes takes takes te.a te.a teatseatseats.a takes takes takes takes teatseatseats. toeats. to toeats. away and mating with one another these cows. Why does he need to get involved in the mating? In case the cow needs help. What, okay. Now I'm not, you know what? Why would I ask a question? I do not want to know the answer to. You really don't want to know the answer to this one. A lot of times cows need help mating. That is why the cow is domesticated. Right?

That's great. You're asking me? Yeah. That's right. Wild cows couldn't have survived. I worked for a while as a cattle midwifer. You did. Mm-hmm.

And you helped them with the mating process as well as the birthing process. Look at me now. Yep. Hey, maybe you'll tell me the answer to this because this this this this this this to this because I don't know. I'll try. But like cows, they are domesticated as you say, they're farm animals, they're very docile. Why is the bull so aggressive? How come that hasn't been bred out of him? Like male female dogs, you know you have them and they can be about the same but what the bull you know just like he's not your friend ever. Yeah that's right. Well the reason for that is the the bull exists as a test of manliness. That is why we have the bull. He is he is

domesticated to be undomisticated. You understand what I'm saying? The bull is there to challenge a man to make a man rise to his best qualities and control that bull. This is why sometimes the cowboy needs to get involved in the mating. Because the bull being too aggressive needs to be calm down before he begins the actual process of intercal. And you are the best at calming down a bull for sex and that's been your reputation for a long time. Yes I make sure that they're ready to go but not ready to do too much. Yep. It's a fine line it's a real sweet spot. You don't want them to be too aggressive because that can spook the cow and cause problems that night or down the line. Yep yep and you don't want

it to be not aggressive enough because then nothing happens. No fucking. I wouldn't put it that be not aggressive enough because then nothing happens. No fucking. I wouldn't put it that way, but I would agree with you. Well you can put it however you want, but it's fucking. All right. Bartleby, do you have a poem to share with us about Bonanza? You do. I know you do.

All right. And interestingly, as you know there are certain themes that are certain themes tha themes the themes themes the themes themes the themes them certain themes that come up on a regular basis in poetry. I think I know what you mean. And it seems that that's one of the things about Bonanza. I think your poem and mine are in some ways thematically similar. Well, they are both about Bananza. But you're saying even beyond that, well, let's find out. What's your poem called? I can relate to Bonanza. Beautiful. It goes like this.

There are many paths in life and some I've never took. I've never seen the south of France, nor have I seen a brook. But of all the things I've never done along the paths in life, the one I've missed the most is that I've never had a wife. And Cartwright had three. He'd see a woman. And right away he'd choose her. But though I've never had one, at least I never had to lose her. Oh, what a beautiful poem that is. That was so sad. Very sad. I'd like to turn that into a song. Oh yeah. You've never seen a brook. That seems a little hard to believe. It's called poetic license. Oh so you have seen a brook.

I had to find something that rhymed in that particular spot. And I, at first, in the first draft, it was I've never seen a cook, and that seemed even further out of possibility, especially since I was writing about Benazin' witch-hop sin is such a prominent character. And he is a cook. Yeah, so there'd be an, obviously lie. Also, I feel like a brook, the provenance of a brook is a cook. Yeah, so there'd be an it obviously lie. Also I feel like a brook The provenance of a brook is debatable. Yeah, it could have been a creak correct. Oh, I see

Or an estuary or a Rindle Have you ever seen a breakfast nook? Oh, yes, oh, but unfortunately, there's too many syllables to try that anyway. Oh. Yep. Do you know anything about poetry? I've never seen the south of France, nor a breakfast nook. Nor what a breakfast nook.

You're missing a bit of a verb there. We're still talking about things we haven't seen. It's like a lit, I haven't seen. I've never seen the south of France, nor a breakfast nook wearing pants. That works. Wait a minute, what are you trying to rhyme with? In that case, it was a whole new

p- Oh no, what's happening? He's getting very, you're looking a little piquet. I'm all right. Well Barnaby, that was a very sad poem. Yes. Is it true that you'd never been married? Is that part of your poem not a lie? That's true. You've never had a, have a half wife. So in that sense it's sad but then it's also happy because I've never lost my wife. That's right. As opposed old Ben Cartwright right, he, he, he, he, Ben, he, Ben, he, Ben, he, he, he, he, he, Ben, he, he, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, he, th, th, th, he, he, he, he, he, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's thi, he's thi, he's th. thi, he's thi, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he's th. th. th.

My life is still filled with potential. How old are you born to be? 79. Yeah, not filled with potential there, but I'd take your point. You can still get married at 79? Yeah. Are you out there? Are you playing the scene? You're allowed to? Yes, they are. They passed a law. I'm on tender and plenty of fish. Tender and plenty of fish. And you know what, I'd like to see you and Russell get out there together

and try to pick up. Well, my wife still might come back. Okay, all right, I forgot. Let me ask you this. Yep. Is th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th.

Yeah, all three of his sons are from three different wives? Are from three different wives? Why would they put that in there? Why can't they be... You don't get the parallel between Henry the 8th and Ben Cartwright? Only three wives instead of six so he's like a Henry the fourth. I guess I get it now. Yeah. It's also th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi the the the the the the the' the th. th. the th. th. th. the tho the the the the th th.

Oh it sure is. And another thing I enjoyed on that show was how they always called each other by whether they were older or younger than each other. They really help you

understand the birth order in their dialogue. They call each other older brother. Let me tell you something older brother. See, what is it little brother? I had four, well no they say younger brother, because little brother could be all of them compared to horse. Oh, good point. Good point. We got to talk time, not times. I had four brothers and we all called each other by name and by the time we reached a certain age,

none of us knew what older we had been born in. You never would have called one of your brothers a granite-headed New England Yankee to help the people listening in understand where his mother was from? If I was really trying to slam him my way. You might. There's a lot of attempts to help the audience understand where people's mothers were from. It would be more helpful if in real life people used exposition to address the people they knew at all time. It sure would me.

My podcast hosting friend. It might have been helpful if they were just brothers from the one mother and she died. Well, how would that explain how they fight so much? Well they could also have it where they don't fight all the time. I'll tell you this episode... What a boring show. Yeah. What is that guns? This episode was 49 minutes long and I would say 33 of those were spent explaining the wife situation. So you'd have to tell me what you're going to do with that extra time if you took thatothpick at one point. New Orleans toothpick. What's that?

That's his little sword, his epae. What? In the first, if you had let me go scene by scene describing every single scene in minute detail. Don't tell me you never seen the first episode of Bonanza. The very first scene, Little Joe is fooling around with a little sword. An epip. And his brother tells him, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a little, a little, a little, a little, a little, a around with a little sword an epa and his brother tells him, calls it a what, a New Orleans French Quarter Toothpick and now we know where his mom is from. And as far as good writing goes, at first you think this is just a way to demonstrate his cultural differences from his brothers but later in the episode, yep, it becomes very important that he knows how to use an epic.

Well, not very important, but somewhat briefly reminded of. Well, I mean, if you want to show that someone is, you know, of Louisiana and heritage, I can think of no better way on the, on the, on the, on the, the old frontier than have him pull out a fencing sword. Well, he did mention that his granddaddy fought for John Lafitte. Yep, his granddaddy was a pirate with John Lafitte and was hung at the age of 82. We learn a lot in this pilot. I still have tremendous potential.

You do, that's true. We learn a lot. Well, uh, we're going to endous potential. You do, that's true. We learn a lot. Well, we're going to take another break. I know it feels like we just had one, but I'd like one now because... Really hung up on these breaks. I really am. Yeah. But, because what's going to happen? This is a proper professional podcast. You've got to take breaks. Now, what's going to happen after this break is going to blow your mind? Because are going to hear music from the Journeyman. Holy shit! God damn! All right, well, let's take a break and we'll come back to Journeyman! Welcome back to Bananasa!

The first and only podcast devoted entirely to Bananza. And this is real exciting here because we're going to hear some music from the number one purveyors of country and western music, which I, all, all, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. tha, tha' tha' after tha' after tha' after tha' after tha' tha' tha' tha, tha, going to hear some music from the number one purveyors of country and western music, which I believe in my opinion is the official music of the country and the whip. And so what are you going to play for us? Well first we're going to do a song we never released on account of we had. Now this is a true story. Oh yeah, this is what I alluded to earlier.

Open your minds to get autobiographical. Your minds are about to be blown

because this is this is the story much good and tel themasties. Go ahead. As you know, Bonanza ended its run around 1973. Right around 1977, 78 they figured out the public. Well they're just wanting to satisfy it. They wanted more so they thi the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their their their their. their their they they're their. they're they're their. their.

I'll tell you. Little Joe plays the Lorne Green father part. Okay. We are the children of Little Joe. You guys

was gonna be in it. It was a whole vehicle package. Oh boy. But instead of settling the west of the moon. God damn. That's right. That's right. That's amazing. What a great idea that is. Oh, you like this. Cowboys on the Moon? You like this. Why not? Settling the wild, what West could be wild? Well, you can kill some Moon Men. You might like something like that.

And it all happened. They explained to it. I don't know. part of the problem. Now, they tell us, well, there's some offensive stuff in there. You're going to hear a couple songs, one of which is the theme song to this show, Moonanza, as well as a show, a song called American Woman. Yeah. And the network. Because we took America to the moon. That's right, we did. Network. their filmed a pilot. They found a lot to argue with in the pilot. I. the pilot. I. I. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their their their their, their their, their their their their, their their, their, their, their their, their, their, their, their song song song song song song song song. their, their, their, their song. their song. their song. their song. their song. their song. their song. their song. their song. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their that we'd outdo them. I see because of the popularity of science fiction TV. They didn't want another science fiction. That's why would they be afraid? Well, they didn't want to ward it over them.

Oh, so this was the TV network was saying, let's be kind. There used to be, yeah. Yeah, they were afraid the people were going to start. to to to to to to to to to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their their their their their. their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their.

So this show was was to be called Munanza Moonanza we shot a pilot in fact we shot four seasons and they shelved the whole thing That's a damn shame. It is well we should we do you got them anywhere? Do you know where they're well dust him off and have a screening party you can come to that Russell all right all right. All right. Well, you're gonna play now. you're gonna play. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the theo. theo. the the the the the the the the the the the the You'd hear this as you saw a burning picture of the sea of tranquility. That's right. That's exactly right.

Beautiful. The picture burning or the sea itself? You get it. It any way you want it. Yeah, how do you want to interpret it? Well, this is three. MUNTA. Moonanza. Grab a ray gun and a rope.

Ride a rocket full of hope. Learn a lighter kind of oak. Give you five the telescope, because you won't be coming. Oh, oh. Moonanza, it's the 1970s. Take some lunar liberties. Drop your airtight young to raise. Live your wildest fantasies on a free love call up.

Moonie. fantasies on our free love collar me Nee But keep it safe from rivalries Like the common Comey thieves and all those cosmic Cherokees In all those cosmic Cherokees In their space can use.

Moonanza, take bite of all that cheese, manifest your destiny. In what sixth of the gravity, it's the finest territory in all the Gaelic seas Woo-hoo! See! Holy shit, that was beautiful. Oh my God, I cannot believe that the world was robbed of Moonan's of the TV show. That makes me so mad. Yeah, it's too bad.

It's too bad. Holy shit, that was beautiful. Oh my God, I cannot believe that the world was robbed of Moon ends of the TV show. That makes me so mad. Yeah, it's too bad. It's too bad, it sounds like a real thrilling adventure. Doesn't it? Doesn't it? How exciting that is? Now, you go on the moon?

It just drifts. It just, what do mean it just drifts? Well, oh, it just drips. And you go back because every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So we lost a lot of men floated off the moon that way. So at the, oh, I see. At the point of the gun, the point, the point, the point, the the the the the gun, the gun, the gun, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what. the, what. the, what. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. the the the the the the, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, the gun and the bullet both travel in opposite directions at the same rate of speed? Yeah except one six of that. One six of that. Because there's some gravity. Do they have devious, greedy actresses on the moon? Yeah that's a good question. Do you have any devious greedy actresses on the moon? And we never put any women up there so we don't know. On the nudist colony? On the nudist colony and the... It's a free love colony. Sounds like not my type of nudist

colony. It was a sausage festival. It somehow managed to be both sexist and misogynist and exclusionary all three. Well I can't believe and you made how many episodes of this did you make? Well let's see we did four seasons at 300 episodes so that's so that's 1,200 episodes I guess plus the of season, so that's a 1,200 episodes, I guess, plus the pilot, 1,1. Damn, that's a mother load of content, as they say. Holy crap. Is it possible this didn't really happen and that you have brain problems?

Not at all, weighthears. the studio gave us loads of LSD to keep everybody happy. Locked us in a room, and we and we and we and we and we and we th and we th and we th and we th. And th. And th.

I have heard you guys refer to that as a lost time before. Well we found it. You found it. Yeah. Dusted it off. Oh boy. Well that sounds fantastic. to me. the. to. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the.

You'll show it to me, will you? Yes, I will. Well, that's extraordinary. And, you know, I mean, look, listen, this thing, this podcast is gonna do a lot of things for a lot of people. Russell is gonna find you your wife.

And it's gonna getto reinvigorate Bonanza and I think it may lead to people demanding to see Munanza and Bartleby maybe it'll get your wife. I hope so. Yeah that'd be nice right. I don't have a lot of time left. How old would you say you were? Yeah you really do? I also could see it being used as evidence in a trial. What, this podcast? Yeah. What kind of a trial are you talking about? You mean like a Supreme Court trial setting the precedent for good quality entertainment?

I don't think it'll need to go that high, but I think just, yeah, we'll see. If it is used in a trial, uh, this will be the first time a podcast in which the first time the burning map on the opening cruds of Bonanza is used in a trial. I lost my way. If we're going back that far in this episode can I put Bobby Canavalli in that face spectrum? Oh yeah he belongs in the face family. Yeah I can see him in that far in this episode, can I put Bobby Cannavaley in that face spectrum? Oh yeah, he belongs, he's in the face family. Yeah, I can see him in that face family. Sure. Thanks. Well, I enjoyed that.

I don't suppose there's any possible way in Hill we could ever convince you or persuade you to play another song. What do you think, Shunt that one that we wrote for the show and that this was like the nail in the coffin for the episodes that we shot. Oh, so you guys do have some more mild filth and racism backed by acoustic guitars? You asked for friends. I don't even call it mild. So this song was written for Moon Anza as well. That's right, but we ended up putting it on our number one album, Mount Us More. thus more.

Last night hangs in my temples, and my lower back is sore. There's a rustle in the blankets, and your hair falls over the pillow. And something tells me we're finally on the man. American Woman, Navajo bitch. Chinatial warming, crotch in her rich. Won't you give me some time to take penicillin for the pain. There's ten bucks on the nightstand, I pull two hundred more, and the foot floating in the tumbler reminds me there's no more scotch to cold.

My wristwatch is still tangled in your lace preser. And the letter to the correction house says your brother's still in there. American woman. Nowajo bitch, janital warming, crotchularids, won't you give me some time to take penicillin for the pain? Well, it's time for me to find my boots and head out on the road.

Oh, won't you run me down there real nice with a bag of chips? Oh, naked, American woman. Oh, won't you let me touch it in the nasty? Let me get you naked.

American woman, yeah. It's supposed to be shaped that way. American woman, yeah. Oh, yeah. I am home. Wow! Holy God damn! What a song that was Shuttmug and Mutt Taylor, Cubby Lauder-born, Tents, Hanrahan, and Jimmy Blades, and Thumper Collins, the Jourdyman! Wow, wow! That was unbelievable. Yeah, it was legitimately traumatizing. It was... What do you mean by that? What do you

care? What do you care? Do you care what I feel? Oh, no, but I'm... You told me why wife's dead body was here? And I'm like, what do you mean by traumatizing? What do you don't can't? Well I'm sorry that your wife's dead body isn't here. I apologize That's such a weird apology for me to accept. I wish I'd had a dead body to show you I really do But I'm surprised you didn't frankly well. I can't find one this stick a wig on a you know, a b a buh beginning of a poem. Stick a wig on a mummy. That's a terrible idea. It's a great way to get a mummy mad. That's another great way to get a mummy mad? Yeah. Well number one thing is you gotta steal his amulet. But round around five or six is putting wigs on them. They don't like that neither. If you get close enough to a mummy to put a wig on him, you damn well better kill him.

But now you've got me all side tracks. Once again, I apologize that your wife isn't dead and that I couldn't show you her body. But I'm glad that you came down here anyway and I think you got a lot out of it. you got a good new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new th new new tho tho tho thothe way, that song included a touching tribute to you. Did you hear the line, there's a rustle in the blankets? I keep, I keep telling you, my name is spelled R-U-S-S-E-L. It's not R-U-S-T-L-E.

Oh, well, that's a shame. But I have, if you want me to, I can fill out the paperwork to have your name changed to RUSTLE. I have changed several people's names. Of all the things I don't want from you, number one with a bullet being contact. The lead, filling out the papers for my legal name changed from Russell to another kind of Russell is way down on the list. It's way down on the list of things you don't want from me. That's what I heard. No one would ever know the difference unless you got pulled over for speeding or were going into a ball. That's exactly right. Thank you, thank you for assuming I still get carded. That's very flattering. Do you still get carded? Every time I go in. Gee, weird. That's interesting. Well, boys, boys, th.

Well, boys, what a beautiful song that was. What can you tell us about that song? Well, we wrote it. Yeah. Yeah, right? In a fugue state? I was, well, what happened was I was living on reservation. Okay, okay. And, uh. And this here woman, she was the greatest. And then we did a number of illicit drugs and promiscuous drugs. Yeah. And then I woke up and those words were on a piece of paper and I took them to blades. You're kidding me. No. So for all you know someone else wrote it? Well, I mean it sounds like the kind of night, you know, I had once or twice. Uh-huh. It's a

beautiful, beautiful song. Well I love that song so much and I love the whole album Mountess Moore and people can people can find that on the computer campaign. They can't right next to a Russell's fucking wife you know damn come on now if you can't have a sense of humor about the fact that your wife is missing I know why get off your high horse yeah man come on got he got to be able to laugh well well agree to disagree all right well okay I guess we're gonna to to the to wrap it up here is anybody have anything final thoughts they want to to say to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tha they. they. they. they. they. the the they. the they. the the okay, I guess we're gonna wrap it up here. Does anybody have anything, final thoughts they wanna say about Bonanza or Munanza? I highly recommend watching Bonanza in order so you can pay attention to the continuity.

Yeah, that's true. I don't know a lot about Munanza. But would you recommend watching MunUNANZA in order to... The other one you can jump around on it. You can jump around. Yeah, we did like a memento thing with a lot of flashbacks and such. And you can even have to pay attention to it fully. You can kind of put it all in the background. You get to watch it.

Yeah, you don't need to watch it to watch it to watch it to watch it they did not pick up as a pilot, but what they did was they aired the pilot and that just made me mad. That just made me furious to think that you're just going to put on the one that and then they don't put it on as a failed goddamn thing. I thought you were mad because they let people hear it. Oh I'm thrilled. I mean, people should have heard it, but they should have heard it every week, because they should have picked it up to be a regular podcast. That is tantamount to putting on the single pilot of Bonanza and not showing the rest. Can you imagine if they had done that? That's a good point. What if they had only showed people this first episode of Bonanza and left our entire nation to wonder what they're all siblings. I know one

of them could have surpassed the other in age somehow. We wouldn't know. We never would have known. We never would have known. So this podcast pilot had damn well better be picked up to be a goddamn regular pilot. It's too important. And if it isn't, then god they better not air just the pilot. Don't do that to me again. Because I swear to the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi is thi is thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. not air just the pilot. Don't do that to me again, because I swear to God, I'll do something. If it makes you feeling you better, there's no way they're gonna air this. Okay, thank you very much. You're welcome. Wait a minute, that's not what I wanted.

You gotta have a sense of human. Oh, oh, dear.

Hell yeah. Glad to do it. Beautiful songs and all right folks thanks for listening and do check out Bonanza. I think you can find it on the computer. Goodbye! We task the delug till we finally struck Bonanza. With a gun in a open a hat full of hope we planted our family tree.

There you have it. That's a full meal of the podcast, isn't it? I didn't know he could out Dalton Wilcox, Dalton Wilcox, but he seems to have done it. I think he did do it. He has become more Dalton Wilcoxy in the intervening years. He's, he's achieving, like, self-actualization. What's the term I mean? He's ascending to his primal form. He's going supernova. I think that may be the issue.

Well, yeah, look, I mean, I enjoyed that. And again, we'll do everything we can to help that become a regular podcast if only to save our own skins. Yeah, and for my money as podcast developer, that's my official title here at your Wolf and Midroll, that's a green light. Okay, so you've heard all you need to hear. Well, yes, but I don't make the final decisions. I will now run this up to the channels that need to prove these kind of things. I'll pound my fist on the desk. And I just hope to God they've learned something since the last time. We're not just trying to entertain. We're also trying to run a business here, and that's just good business sense.

You're darn right. Yes, absolutely. Well, I hope it's successful. I mean, I don't know what else Dal we will have a brand new podcast pilot to screen for you. We're not screening it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

And that one will be a little something called. the trivin' and fucking with Jocke. Yeah. All right there. I mean, I could see where some people are going to have an issue with the title alone. Yeah. But, but don't knock until you've heard it. There you go. Don't judge a book by the word fucking in the title. But, so look, there's some people to thank right now.
