[SPEAKER_03]: It's you gotta be kidding me, with Tony Perkins and Gary stuff.

[SPEAKER_03]: No, they're not related.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's just good friends.

[SPEAKER_03]: And now, here's Tony and Gary.

[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, I'm so bad at this.

[SPEAKER_05]: I'm so bad, you know, I'm gonna stop.

[SPEAKER_05]: I'm gonna stop.

[SPEAKER_05]: You just discovered that now.

[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, you know, I just discovered every week.

[SPEAKER_05]: I stopped to early that time.

[SPEAKER_08]: You're the most musical non-musical person I know because you still insist on being on stage and strumming a guitar that you don't know how to play.

[SPEAKER_08]: And like you can't, you probably can't, I mean, you probably can't play, what was that guitar game that my kids were all?

[SPEAKER_05]: Rock band.

[SPEAKER_05]: Rock, rock, rock band?

[SPEAKER_05]: Rob, is it rock band?

[SPEAKER_09]: I believe it is, or was it guitar hero?

[SPEAKER_08]: Guitar hero?

[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, guitar hero.

[SPEAKER_09]: But then there was Beatles rock band that was a package for it.

[SPEAKER_08]: That's why Tony thought of that.

[SPEAKER_08]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, it's got to be a choice.

[SPEAKER_08]: If it's not a Beatles connection, he doesn't even know, you know, like historical events.

[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, let me do it.

[SPEAKER_04]: You're right if it's not a Beatles connection, then you know, probably doesn't happen.

[SPEAKER_04]: Wow, Rob, you're awake.

[SPEAKER_08]: The Beatles!

[SPEAKER_04]: Ha ha ha ha ha.

[SPEAKER_04]: What is the matter with me?

[SPEAKER_08]: You know, it's not, it's not that early.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's not that early.

[SPEAKER_08]: Tell me about it.

[SPEAKER_08]: Rob Ford would have gotten it.

[SPEAKER_08]: Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey,

[SPEAKER_05]: And he's Rob Speedwack behind the scenes.

[SPEAKER_05]: Happy that you're with us today.

[SPEAKER_05]: And so we were talking about things we're going to do on today's show.

[SPEAKER_05]: It's a special episode.

[SPEAKER_05]: Well, it's Wayne Wein just a little bit.

[SPEAKER_05]: And as I was talking about different topics I wanted to discuss.

[SPEAKER_05]: Gary was, you know, you're a provocative tour, like you said.

[SPEAKER_05]: And you want to, you want to just go in directions that

[SPEAKER_05]: that are kind of mean.

[SPEAKER_08]: I just think that I want to go into directions that most people want to go into, but they're not brave enough.

[SPEAKER_05]: Um, you might be right, but I don't really mean that.

[SPEAKER_08]: So see a lot of stuff is just something to say, you know, because I like the sound of my own voice.

[SPEAKER_08]: Voice.

[SPEAKER_05]: There you go.

[SPEAKER_08]: Right.

[SPEAKER_08]: Okay.

[SPEAKER_05]: Well, welcome.

[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, now let's first mention whether we got a couple of things to talk about.

[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_05]: But first off, um, love your background.

[SPEAKER_05]: Uh, now is I read a lot.

[SPEAKER_08]: you know, I've read every book in this office.

[SPEAKER_05]: Do you have your really?

[SPEAKER_05]: Are you in Andy Rooney's office by the chance?

[SPEAKER_05]: Because that's what it used to look like.

[SPEAKER_08]: No, but I borrowed a set of his extra eyebrows that I found here and I couldn't find spirit gum to tap them on.

[SPEAKER_03]: It's you gotta be kidding me, with Tony Perkins and Gary stuff. [SPEAKER_03]: No, they're not related. [SPEAKER_03]: It's just good friends. [SPEAKER_03]: And now, here's Tony and Gary.

[SPEAKER_08]: No, but I borrowed a set of his extra eyebrows that I found here and I couldn't find spirit gum to tap them on. [SPEAKER_05]: I wanted to. [SPEAKER_05]: What was his expression? [SPEAKER_05]: Have you ever noticed? [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: You are on your [SPEAKER_05]: I am. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm in Singapore. [SPEAKER_05]: No, that's not true. [SPEAKER_08]: No, no, no. [SPEAKER_08]: I'm in Los Angeles. [SPEAKER_08]: You're in Los Angeles. [SPEAKER_09]: What is that? [SPEAKER_08]: I love L.A. By Randy Noone. [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yes. [SPEAKER_05]: Once it got to the lyrics, I would have... [SPEAKER_08]: It probably would have been better to just start with I love L.A. You know, rather than the intro, the most popular track. [SPEAKER_08]: Because you know what it did, it caused a pause in our show, which dropped the energy tremendously. [SPEAKER_09]: Oh, and caused a pause in you talking. [SPEAKER_05]: Right. [SPEAKER_05]: the show. [SPEAKER_05]: So yeah, you are in LA. [SPEAKER_05]: I know we don't, we can't talk about some of why you're in LA, because the law is after you. [SPEAKER_08]: No, but I evade them. [SPEAKER_08]: It's okay. [SPEAKER_08]: No, I look, I came out here because my buddy, my pal, Marcia Rod, who we did talk about at one point. [SPEAKER_08]: She passed away and I helped put together [SPEAKER_08]: and it went, you know, you didn't ask me, but it went really, really well. [SPEAKER_08]: I was about to ask you. [SPEAKER_08]: Well, but you didn't ask me in time. [SPEAKER_08]: Well, and it went really well. [SPEAKER_08]: And I never had to help produce something from 3,000 miles away, but we did like a video thing and you know, dissolves and all that and people spoke and I was asked to speak. [SPEAKER_08]: So it did last until the next day. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: Afterwards, people were like, oh my god, thank you. [SPEAKER_08]: Who is he? [SPEAKER_08]: So it went off really well. [SPEAKER_08]: And it was an opportunity for me and Sarah to come out here. [SPEAKER_08]: We lived here a long time. [SPEAKER_08]: So we've been seeing friends. [SPEAKER_08]: I have others. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, and some of them are really special, and I just really love them. [SPEAKER_08]: I think of some of them as my almost best friends, and you know Sam Sam came to the, the, the, the, the, the. [SPEAKER_08]: Sam, it's because Marsha directed him in something. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, but Sarah and I have been visiting old friends. [SPEAKER_08]: We've been having a great time. [SPEAKER_08]: And we've done a couple of touristy things. [SPEAKER_08]: We're staying right by Griffith Observatory. [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: You told me you took a walk up there. [SPEAKER_08]: We've been hiking up to it every day, which is about two miles up and two miles back. [SPEAKER_08]: But she likes me do that. [SPEAKER_08]: I don't really want to do that. [SPEAKER_08]: But she has to exercise like all the time. [SPEAKER_08]: Have you climbed the Hollywood sign? [SPEAKER_08]: just the age, because I think that what we decided is every time we come out here we're going to climb a different letter. [SPEAKER_04]: Different letter. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, you better get to it, because I mean, you know, what? [SPEAKER_04]: Eight nine years from now, you'll be doing the D. No problem. [SPEAKER_08]: I got a lot of time left to your dismay. [SPEAKER_08]: Hey, I went to Gralman's Chinese theater. [SPEAKER_08]: Did you really? [SPEAKER_08]: Is it still Gralman's? [SPEAKER_08]: Didn't they change the name? [SPEAKER_08]: So when the man shane bought it? [SPEAKER_08]: I just don't know what he does, you know, I mean, that was a practical sound effect. [SPEAKER_09]: That was my gong. [SPEAKER_08]: It was. [SPEAKER_09]: Oh, was it your gong, really? [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, it wasn't what it was. [SPEAKER_05]: It wasn't gong, but you have a gong right there. [SPEAKER_05]: You have a gong right there. [SPEAKER_09]: No, no, I have it right here. [SPEAKER_09]: Can we see it? [SPEAKER_09]: Can we see it? [SPEAKER_06]: All right. [SPEAKER_06]: Why did you ask that? [SPEAKER_06]: I know. [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, you actually have a gun. [SPEAKER_06]: Look at that. [SPEAKER_06]: Look at that. [SPEAKER_06]: I love that. [SPEAKER_09]: Yeah, normally only hit it when we talk about T-mo. [SPEAKER_08]: So he actually got that gong when he was the gonger of the gong show. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, that's right. [SPEAKER_08]: He was very close to Chuck Barris. [SPEAKER_05]: All right, I'm going to Gary, I'm going to give you $10. [SPEAKER_05]: Seriously, if you can get this trivia question. [SPEAKER_05]: Who had the hit record bang a gong? [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, I, I know, I don't, I don't think I'm going to give you a clue. [SPEAKER_08]: I won't be getting the money. [SPEAKER_08]: Think of a dinosaur. [SPEAKER_08]: Think of a dinosaur. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, it was Tarenosaurus Rex. [SPEAKER_08]: It was T Rex. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, wow. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: That's right. [SPEAKER_05]: No. [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_05]: Would know you're right. [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, right. [SPEAKER_09]: And Tony, I will give you $10. [SPEAKER_09]: Okay. [SPEAKER_09]: If you can tell me who had a hit in the 80s, remaking it. [SPEAKER_05]: Ooh, bang a gong, remade. [SPEAKER_05]: Ooh, this sounds familiar in the 80s. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm gonna say Luther Randross. [SPEAKER_09]: That is great. [SPEAKER_09]: Correct, we're looking for power station. [SPEAKER_09]: Power station, but David Broly, wasn't he in there? [SPEAKER_09]: He was involved in one of the recordings. [SPEAKER_09]: And it was like some grand-doran things, and no one's super-grouped. [SPEAKER_09]: Anyway, I've got to get back to my gong. [SPEAKER_09]: It doesn't polish itself. [SPEAKER_08]: All right, Rob, I'm sorry, I've always done a long way to meet you. [SPEAKER_08]: I was going to tell Rob, I would give him $11 if he would go away. [SPEAKER_05]: Thank you. [SPEAKER_05]: See, see what I'm talking about, folks? [SPEAKER_05]: Mean, mean, provocative tour. [SPEAKER_05]: I had a rough childhood. [SPEAKER_05]: Yes, you did. [SPEAKER_05]: Yes, you did. [SPEAKER_05]: We won't do that. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, so now I do comedy. [SPEAKER_05]: Well, like many comedians. [SPEAKER_05]: It's not unusual who are working out. [SPEAKER_05]: Who's sung that song? [SPEAKER_05]: Well, it's not unusual. [SPEAKER_05]: Tom Drill? [SPEAKER_05]: There you go. [SPEAKER_05]: So now you owe me $10 or even. [SPEAKER_05]: How'd that happen? [SPEAKER_08]: I'm supposed to be the better business man. [SPEAKER_08]: I'm Jewish. [SPEAKER_05]: I'm supposed to turn that 10 into 20 like that. [SPEAKER_05]: Enjoy your time in LA. [SPEAKER_05]: I know you're working on some things, maybe for us, unless it's just for you, and you've liked me. [SPEAKER_08]: No, I actually have a new podcast launching. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, what's this one called? [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, why? [SPEAKER_04]: What's this one called? [SPEAKER_04]: Gary Steinchau. [SPEAKER_04]: Wow, that sounds amazing. [SPEAKER_04]: That is very, very good. [SPEAKER_04]: What's it gonna be about? [SPEAKER_08]: It's gonna be about me. [SPEAKER_08]: everything I've done and everything I'm still planning on doing and some of the producers out here found it fascinating because I said I would pay them to put the show and I've got a lot of stars that are going to be coming on actually I have a clip if you'd like to hear a clip you know with the internet the clip you always out there is the Gary Star Trek. [SPEAKER_01]: It's the Gary Stein Show featuring Gary Stein. [SPEAKER_01]: Today, Gary is joined by Tony Perkins. [SPEAKER_01]: And now, here's Gary and his little friend Tony.
