A few days ago Tim and I recorded a podcast in which I tormented Tim by talking about the

1990 American Music Awards and Tim was banned from speaking.

That episode has not yet been broadcast but in anticipation of the

participation of the reaction and possible legal action or intervention by the European Union or something.

I've decided even by my stenters that was a bit too cruel

and we're making a special little mini episode now where I'm gonna I'm

gonna give Tim his voice back I'm gonna let him off the leash talk about these

awards permission to speak? Permission granted $185, completely protected, sent to the girls.

On the condition I get a little glimpse of the stationery they buy because I really like stationery too and I want to see what they end up buying.

Yeah. Tim you are off the leash. Off the leash. Wow I feel liberated. It's marvelous to be able to speak

particularly about the 1990 American musical works.

I mean it's a topic since the podcast started it's a topic that people have been dying

to hear about now they're getting a second episode of it.

They are.

Then we've got 91, 92, and 93.

They've had my opinion, but now they're going to get the opinion that really matters.

Well, this is true, this is true, and I don't know where to start. There's so much to say.

How was it hearing me describe them? Did I do a good job?

It was very fascinating. There were two things going on. One is it was enormously frustrating to have prepared and thought and to know this and then not be able to say anything that was the torture on the other hand I quite

enjoyed hearing you talk about it as well because it was sort of vicarious you know it was like

oh he's appreciating it too. That's great.

I never thought I'd hear someone else give a commentary on this award ceremony
