Summary

Greg and Sean reflect on their time in Seattle, sharing memories of an in-flight emergency. Sean crushed it with his t-shirt sales but hilariously struggles with locating hotel fridges. We dive into the history of Fritos, even pondering if Mahatma Gandhi would have been a fan. The word "mercurial" makes an epic return. A debate arises about the ultimate snack: KitKats with Jif or walking tacos. Plus, the guys revisit some classic characters in a showdown between "Venezuelan Tim" and "Deadpan Sean."

0:09.7	Fritos there, but before we get to that, I want to talk to my co-host, Tim Convey. Hi.
0:16.0	Good. How are you? I'm doing well, Sean O'Brien. Greg. Good to see you guys. Tim, you had a big weekend. We did, yeah. We did the punk rock Christmas shows this weekend. So it was Saturday, the two shows over at the pageant here in St. Louis. And it was the best. We had a great time. Now, the punk rock Christmas is sort of a super group, right? Yeah. It's guys from a bunch of bands that kind of started in St. Louis, but it's
0:40.9	myself from Ludo, my guy Moon, who's in the band Goldfinger, he was in Story of the Year
0:47.5	and Greek Fire, some of the other Greek Fire guys, and then Will from title volume.
0:51.4	So, yeah, it's a good crew.
0:53.2	When you say supergroup, that really just means you're pulling somebody from different bands, right?
0:58.4	I mean, supergroup doesn't mean that they're necessarily extraordinary.
1:03.7	I mean, I think some of the first supergroups that was a little more like all these big chart top-down bands.
1:10.3	I would say we're like a St. Louis supergroup. Okay. What is an example of a supergroup? Randy, you played in a few supergroups, didn't you? Asia, I believe, was a supergroup. Were they made up a guys? They were made up of guys than from other bands. Crosby still is in Nash. That's what I think of, I think, when I think of Supergroup.

And then I was remember the 90s there was like that Pearl Jam, Al's Chains, SoundGarden. You're right. 90s grunge had so many, those guys were constantly collaborating, mostly because they were all in Seattle. But yeah, your Temple of the Dog. That's it. Temple of the Dawn. And then there was another one where the Soundtable Pilots guy, there was just a ton of them back then. It was pretty cool. But yeah, Crosby Stills and Nash is the big one, I think.
