Hi, I'm Beverly DeAngelo and you're listening to Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast.

All right, welcome to a special episode of Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast.

Make some noise, rely that sit-bolds request room Chelsea, New York City. I'm Joe McGinty, your pianist for the evening and please welcome your host, Frank, Santo Padre and the Golden Voice himself, Gilbert Gottfried.

Gillier, the Golden Voice. Welcome, welcome everybody. Wow. What a turnout. We haven't been here in a while. Shall we talk about what happened the last time we were here Gilbert?

We did, I think, three shows here in one night. We did. And at the end of the night, we said, you know, these are great. These are to riff. Sometimes you get that fit. You know, each one's a hit and Frank Ferdarosa erased all.

No, it wasn't him. Stop sticking up. Frank wasn't even working with us then. That doesn't excuse me. So we're here with Joe McGinty. At fabulous sit-golds, I'll be updating the listening audience as we go.

Sit-golds request room. Gilbert, turn to me about five minutes and go. What's the name of this place?

How many times have you been here? Shadful. And to show you what a guinea. Frank is. He turns. I don't even know what he was referring to. But he turned to me and whispered.

Rabbi's blessed people, right? So it's going to be you, both night. There's a Rabbi in the house. David Kamarowski is here.

Which we're thrilled that a Rabbi listens to this podcast. That sounds like a show that appeals to Jews and blacks. Rabbi in the house.

So we're going to do something different than the lost episodes. The lost. We thought we'd bring those back. But for the people who were here for that, we thought we'd do something new. We did one hit Wonders of the 1970s the last time.

It was a great show. I wish you would have heard it. It wasn't with special. We're going to do something different from the podcast. You guys who listen to the show. We're going to do story songs.

Yes. Gilbert and I lamented the loss of the story song. Well, you got to sit there for like three hours to hear the entire song. Songs like Harry Chapin's taxi and Old Tabilly Joe, which is one you like.

Yes, or the classic one that's like a mini series, Alison Dresser. That's a mini series. Yeah. I'm partial to the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Yes. One time on the show. I called it the wreck of the Barry Fitzgerald. Totally different. If you know who Barry Fitzgerald is, you should be here.

So we're going to do story songs. Joe is going to have some fun facts, some song facts that he's going to offer. This is fun too. Gilbert does not know what we're going to sing. So these are I purposely stayed away. I didn't ask. I'm going to see what happens in the first three shows. I was kissing.

Aren't you pretty much guessing every week on the spot? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, it's all preparation on my part. We also have some we also have some trivia questions that we're going to ask and my wife, the lovely Genevieve, will be handing out prizes.

So, but we don't we don't have lights or buzzers. So don't please don't shout out the answer if you know it. Just shoot your hand up. And the first hand I see the first winning answer or correct answer will get the valuable priceless $5 orange rich pen.

Shall we start? I'm going to give a little bit of an intro to this one.

This is a song written by Nashville songwriter named Don Schlitz. We're going to tell a little bit of the stories behind the story songs.

Don Schlitz did not play poker. You can probably guess what song it is. Also you have lyric sheets on your tables. And that should be giving it away.

It's not really a song about a card game. It's a metaphorical song about it's my Yiddish mama. That's it. Yeah.

What I found impressive did you find this in your notes. He was all of 23 when he wrote this song. It's a heady song.
