Merry Christmas Podcast / Happy Holiday - 2018 podcast from the Filibuster Freestyle

New Podcast drinking game. Any time there’s a random “dog bark”, or police siren, or freight train horn, or most notably an uninvited guest offering peanut gallery comments, etc — the listeners drink. We’re calling it, “More inebriated than you want”

Fake band name - faux pax - “Jackie Onassis’ corpse” 

Fake band name of the week for realzzzzies: “Fat third basemen”

Patriots update week 16 - their D is good - but Brady and Gronk are backsliding hard and fast.

The 2018 Patriots team has three outcomes for the post season:

1) They’ll ride a “Solid D” and “Ball Control Offense” to a Super Bowl title like the 2001 Pats.

2) They’ll somehow make the Super Bowl and get routed by a superior opponent like the 1985 and 1997 Pats.

3) They’ll lose in the first round like the 2005 and 2010 Pats — signs point to Door Number 3.

Very outlandish Ravens / Eagles super bowl 53 prediction 

Is there a band that listens better while “partying”, but worse sober than Sublime? Maybe Pink Floyd?

Facebook is the worst rant = Mark Zuckerberg is Lex Author

Honestly - and we mentioned this on a pod post World Series... if Sox win every 5ish Years - that model works for me. They have the money to do that and unlike football (stud QB), basketball (two top 20 players) or hockey (great goalie and injury luck)... money and health are all that matter in baseball and while health is random only 4 teams have money in mlb

Red Zone Channel is marvelous — there’s no game I’d rather watch on it’s own, instead of watching 7 hours of the Red Zone channel passively. 

Tom Coughlin owns Bill Belicheck like Matt Damon owned Teddy KGB in Rounders.

Rap beef with Eminem and Machine Gun Kelly ( Mac Miller // unfortunate comments made about his demise and a rap beef from Curtis Fingers)

Post Malone, G Easy

people essentially have come in at different periods and ruined genres of music — jazz, the blues, disco (bee gees, are we finally at a point in hip-hop, in which the next generation of performers go to a different genre?

Inherently every overrated artist is classified as “pop” - because you really can’t be overrated if nobody collectively knows who you are. Is that fair? 

So, i’m not sure we need a pop category — but i think 4 quadrants of music are worth placing people in

The Foo fighters are properly rated — I had them as slightly overrated, then saw them live and realized they are so great live that i had underrated them — i think they’re properly rated.

Legends = Includes Classic Rock, Hip Hop, Country, Singer Song writer, Etc:  Pre 1991

The Doors, Bruce Springsteen, Kiss, The Ramones, Pink Floyd, Eagles

Can we quickly discuss the hot take cindy harrington had, related to your disdain for Bruce Springsteen

Steve Perry alledgedly has a new song — I’m shocked and amazed at this news 

Alt Rock and Newer Rock

Stone Temple Pilots are overrated but Scott Weiland is either properly rated or under rated 

What’s your thought on Sublime / Bradley Nowell ? Properly rated 

Limp Bizkit (3 dollar bills ya’ll was ok), Godsmack 

Linkin Park 

Green Day??????

Blink 182? 

Radiohead 

Dave Matthews Band 

U2

Bob Dylan

Hip Hop

Pitbull (as an entertainer maybe not, as a rapper… yup)

Warren G

Kanye? (Not as a producer)

Soulja Boy 

Akon - was replaced in like 20 mins 

Lil Wayne, Beastie Boys??? That’s a hot take! 

Country / Boy Bands / Teen Sensations / Etc 

Britney Spears, N’Sync (Here’s my hot take on this one, no Justin Timberlake, that band would have been less successful than 98 degrees and O-Town. Amy Winehouse, Carrie Underwood, Toby Keith  

Rosco’s list - Dr. Dre. / Mary J Blige 

1992-2015 — anything in 2016 -now is too in flux in my opinion. 

Guns N' Roses 3 countries, 4 concerts plus Flat Earthers "Rant of the Month"

GnR Facebook live 

Places listening - Australia, Philippines, England, Germany and Saudi Arabia are all doing great work in terms of listening

4 shows, 3 countries, 4 methods of transportation 

Took an Uber Pop in Prague - driver knew back roads was pumped GnR was in Prague- cab driver back to Praha 1 tried to swindle ya with a “I have no change”

Rode bicycles in Nijmegen - bike tailgate party 

Drove my car and then walked like 2 miles each way in Winston-Salem

Nashville- bought tix on the broadway walked right in and out from the hotel

Varying axl banter (nc show- fight to live another day vs live to fight another day, at least we didn't get blown up in nuclear war- Prague - likes the wine // Netherlands more about Angus young - this one's for us 

Nashville- only real banter was to introduce the train horn for “night train”

 Public restrooms being unisex makes men’s room nicer and women’s room lines smaller

The Tax Bill — passes at 1:30am on a saturday — 500 page document that has people’s handwritten scribble on it — given to senator’s like 2 hours or less before the vote — we deserve better.

This isn’t even a criticism of the Republican party, not the Democrats — congress is not longer working for us — they’re working for themselves. They are no longer public servants they are making us, the public, their servants. 

We need to stand against this “cabal”, this emerging oligarchy  is unacceptable. The courts need to step in, at the behest of the people. We need term limits on all congressional positions… we need them to stop being the ones allowed to draw their own congressional districts and gerrymander our futures away. Wake up — this isn’t about party, or about tax cuts, it’s about a runaway power drunk washington ruling class— guys, it’s time to call BS 

Skyline Chili ingredients: 2 pounds of ground beef, 2 cups of chopped onions. 4 cups of beef stock, 2 cans of tomato sauce, 2-3 table spoons of chili powder, 2 table spoons of apple cider vinegar, 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 ounce of grated unsweetened chocolate — and yeah and like a mountain of cheese

Tennessee is going to Hire Tee Martin — feels like brining in Phil Fulmer (and based on the fact that no accomplished head coach would take this job right now)… it feels like Tee Martin is the move. 

I love how people are now clamoring for an 8 team playoff in — but i’d much rather argue over #4 and #5 then #2 and #3

Also — the more spots we create, the more watered down the regular season gets. We already have way fewer undefeated teams than we used to in the BCS ear — why, cuz there is room for error… if we start letting in 8 teams — how many 3 loss and 4 loss teams are we going to have to decide between? 

Who you got in the College Football playoff first round games? Clemson vs. Alabama ? Georgia vs Oklahoma ? Who do you HOPE wins it all?
