Speaker 1:

This is a test. This is only a test.

Speaker 4:

In a world where cities are playgrounds and playgrounds are arenas, where arenas are battlegrounds and battlegrounds are sectioned into streets and streets are bisected by school crosswalks and school cross Stop it.

Speaker 5:

Hello, is anybody there?

Speaker 4:

The Crossing Guard Tapes.

Speaker 6:

Ooh, I don't know how that happened. I don't know if it's the Aurora Borealis or what's going on today, but that was actually the trailer for the new podcast, the Crossing Guard Tapes. It's phenomenal. We're actually going to be talking with its creators later in the show, but something is not right today. Nonetheless, it is six o'clock in the morning. Welcome to the. We Live Zombie Carnival. Gina, I'm a little. I'm a little worried. There's a lot of craziness going on right now. There's an all-star game. Just the world's on fire. You know, I'm just, I'm real worried.

Speaker 7:

Joe, I know you're scared and in times of fright we turn to our good friend, the head of the CDC, dr Ricci.

Speaker 6:

Dr Ricci on the phone. Hey, Dr Ricci, how are you?

Speaker 7:

So where are we at with the serum? I know you were had a big announcement before.

Speaker 8:

Yes, thank you for having me. I appreciate the time. It's very important. I've made some great breakthroughs and it involves animal DNA.

Speaker 6:

We've got a phone caller. We've got a phone caller. This is fascinating Caller. Are you there?

Speaker 9:

Hey there, hey there, hold her, oh boy, hey hey, long time listener, second time caller.

Speaker 6:

You're one of those, huh, so what can we help you with?

Speaker 9:

You know, I just so. I saw this girl on the bus the other day. We were, we were going uptown. You know, normally I'm going downtown, If you know what I mean. Yeah, but you know, I saw this girl and I just feel like she doesn't know I exist, Cause at no point on the bus did she look at me. But I just I wanted to know how do I find her again and get her to actually look in my direction, Cause I think once we make eye contact, that that's when the sparks will fly. Also, the the electricity from the pipes that are wires are falling down, those sparks will also fly. But you know, really I'm looking for the girl.

Speaker 6:

So so you're calling for relationship advice, aren't you?

Speaker 7:

Again yes.

Speaker 6:

So you think? You think Dr Ricci is a love doctor is what's happening?

Speaker 9:

Well, I mean, you ever seen the man? I mean women must go crazy for him. He's got to be the doctor of love.

Speaker 6:

Dr Dr Ricci.

Speaker 7:

Right, do you have an answer? Oh God, oh God, oh Okay, so that guy clearly doesn't get the Dr Ricci's a real doctor.

Speaker 6:

He thinks he's a relationship doctor. He called before, didn't he?

Speaker 7:

I think so. I think it's the same guy and that's pretty desperate.

Speaker 6:

That guy's got, doesn't he have just like a, like a four? I can't place it, but I feel like I've heard that voice before I know.

Speaker 7:

I feel like he's somebody we've met at some point, but I don't know where that would be, because we're on an island alone.

Speaker 6:

Nonetheless, Gina, you have a guest for us.

Speaker 7:

Yes, I found that you remember that lady with the viral video with the rat. Yep, yep, that lady.

Speaker 6:

I got her.

Speaker 7:

Erin Lane.

Speaker 6:

Erin Lane, that's it. I got her. She's gone viral and she actually doesn't have the virus, which is really fascinating.

Speaker 7:

It's pretty crazy. So we've got her on the phone and I want to. I want to kind of pick her brain and see what the hell's going on there.

Speaker 6:

Let's do it. Erin, are you there?

Speaker 6:

Where are you right now?

Speaker 10:

I'm in a cave. Okay, well, it's more like a hole, but I call it a thing Cause it makes it feel more like a home.

Speaker 6:

Oh.

Speaker 10:

Oh, erin, yeah, no, I carved my name in the wall and now I feel like I've got a picture I'm decorating.

Speaker 6:

Do you have any pets?

Speaker 10:

Well, no, Well, I got Michael, but I wouldn't call him a pet. You know Michael's more of like my friend. What is my?

Speaker 6:

rat A rat.

Speaker 7:

Oh yes, I mean, will you ever eat, michael, if need be?

Speaker 10:

Oh no, I can't eat Michael. He's her best friend, well that, and I'm pretty sure he's a rat zombie, oh no, well, that's one of the clues. You know, I've been kind of thinking about it and you know, kind of makes me wonder like cause. You know, I'm still here and I'm like I'm not even like trying anymore.

Speaker 10:

I'm like I, I, I gave a while ago, you know, and like now it's just kind of like I just walk and see what happens, but, um, like I don't know, the world was on fire and then it went to shit and then we started eating each other, not just the rich, like that was the plan. Then it was everybody, everybody. I mean how, how are you guys like? I mean, how are you guys Like, how are you guys?

Speaker 6:

We're safe. We're safe on our island lighthouse.

Speaker 10:

That must be nice If you ever make it here, aaron we got a room for you, but you guys hide the directions.

Speaker 6:

That's true. We do just say a specific little code.

Speaker 10:

You leave on the trees. I don't understand that, Like you, are one of the lives of people living in Canada. Mammalhaha HIRS it doesn't look like they're hyped up a lot in man Jesús. I think you know, so Germany is coming to life.

Speaker 6:

There's a lot, a lot.

Speaker 10:

Yeah.

Speaker 6:

What else?

Speaker 10:

does this mean like I'mọnVia and? But you know, yeah.

Speaker 7:

What else does that mean? Like I have a unbelief for stress.

Speaker 6:

The country are you in right now. Do you know?

Speaker 10:

I don't even I think I might be in Canada, because you know they don't make that border very clear, and I know I was walking north for a while in some trees, or it could have been south, I mean it could be in Mexico, but you know the zombies turned everybody white, so I don't really know where I am so tell us about how you, how you got to be just so despondent.

Speaker 6:

What, yeah, what happened?

Speaker 10:

Well, you know, in zombies first attacks right me and my friends, we were playing Dungeons and Dragons. We were playing in my friend's garage and it was a neighborhood where there weren't you know, not a lot of people walking around in the neighborhood, except for this none. There was always none who walked. We never knew where she lived, but one day this none was walking right at her. So non-nony type, and all of a sudden there were all of these people Running after the nun, you'd see, worried about it, and then the people started attacking the nun. People like, well, should we roll for it?

Speaker 10:

I was like I don't know, I'm only going if I get a nat 20.

Speaker 3:

Oh.

Speaker 10:

Well, I rolled and I got a nat 20.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 10:

And so I had to go save the yeah the nun.

Speaker 6:

Yeah.

Speaker 10:

I got there and the zombies just looked at me and ran away.

Speaker 6:

Oh my god, I'll reject it. By zombies, that's awful.

Speaker 10:

Well, I don't know, I'm super power. Now, right like we need to figure out what the rules are on it. Only one who seems to have it.

Speaker 6:

So far nobody.

Speaker 10:

Nobody else had it because they ran away from me and then they ran into the garage and I don't think anyone else rolled in that 20. Did you go back?

Speaker 6:

into the garage.

Speaker 10:

No Good decision. I think that's a good? Not at all.

Speaker 7:

No, schrodinger's box, they're still alive half.

Speaker 10:

No, that cat's fucking. That is a lucky fucking cat. I Know what's gonna happen when I open that box. It's the universe's irony, and they're laughing at me.

Speaker 6:

Wow, so you got some viral fame a few weeks ago. That's how we found you the that incident at the convenience store. Can you? Can you tell us a little bit about what happened there?

Speaker 10:

Well, you know it was. It was all zombies and I found a zombie. I was just walking through, you know, getting my Fritos right, like he do, or maybe like I do, and there was one zombie that didn't run away from me and I was like, wow, you know, and I still had. I still had my iPhone and and a battery charger so I could still use my phone. For, you know, the 400 of us left on the tick tock.

Speaker 10:

That I would take from the convenience store. I would take some of the makeup and I would do a zombie makeup tutorial. Yeah because I don't think the zombies know that they can come to her and Wouldn't be so afraid of them if they just made their, you know.

Speaker 7:

And it was I won't. I thought kind of the. Similarly, I was like I could do makeup like a zombie. Oh because I mean I've got the back, I could trick them. Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Speaker 10:

They did that in the walking dead. They even put dead body parts in their pants and walk zombies. But I don't think that's it, because they run away from me. This is going on in their heads where I don't know. I'm beginning to think that they think that I can save them. I Think sometimes, you know, you find your good moods and even during these strange times you know you got to take time for yourself. You gotta find your confidence because when people are running away from you, all Like you get an alive.

Speaker 10:

Whoa, you know. And so that's why I started doing makeup on myself, because I wanted to feel good. Even if the zombies can't talk to me, they can run away a little slower.

Speaker 6:

Absolutely.

Speaker 7:

Absolutely yeah.

Speaker 6:

Do you try to make up on Michael?

Speaker 10:

No, because I don't bite me. I Mean, like you know, I have those friends that are toxic that you just Can't get rid of them Because you know, you just know. I'm too long you know I've known him since the beginning. You know it's been me and him. So, yeah, he just, you just, even though you know he broke all the rules and he got all zombie'd up and stuff, you know he doesn't run away. Oh, I saw a zombie horse the other. Good day, guys.

Speaker 6:

What's that like?

Speaker 10:

it's like it's a horse, but yeah, but their eyes are so big like zombie eyes get crazy when they're big like on an animal, because horses eyes are usually like the black holes of depth. Yeah, yeah, the horror for anymore man. Shit's exploding in those.

Speaker 3:

Looks like a nebula.

Speaker 6:

What does it look like? A nebula? Yeah, like a fiery.

Speaker 10:

Just I'm telling you we have what I had. Those eyes would be being explored.

Speaker 7:

See. I think, we've got to use. We've got to use our people to get Ritchie Sweetie. Okay, erin up was Ritchie.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, we just had him on it earlier. I wish, I wish we didn't know.

Speaker 7:

We have the director of the CDC, doctor Ritchie. He's been working on a cure and I feel like we've made some progress with them and you might be like a key to this air and we've got Tabling.

Speaker 10:

Why are we looking for a cure? Because when you, when you open those brains, you can't cure them. Those people are dead. It's the stroder. You just need to stop believing in things and you realize the tiny joys that can get you through this. But stop believing. Anything is still alive, all right, well Erin.

Speaker 7:

What's your favorite tiny joy, my favorite tiny joy.

Speaker 10:

Well, right now it's carving pictures into my whole cave. Those will last for centuries right, I'm gonna be someone in the future, lady Gaga.

Speaker 7:

Sounds like somebody might have found your cave.

Speaker 6:

Oh yeah, what is that?

Speaker 7:

What's that? Do you have someone there at the entrance?

Speaker 6:

You put a boulder in front of you.

Speaker 10:

How the fuck do you see in my cave?

Speaker 6:

over here.

Speaker 7:

We can hear it here's some wrestling. Kind of sounds like you might have a visitor, an undead visitor.

Speaker 10:

How would you know that? By row shit you were right.

Speaker 7:

Erin, oh god.

Speaker 10:

God, I'm like business clothes, though he must have been someone important. Oh, you know what's fun sometimes I make up a game about who these people are. Yeah, okay, so he's got on Navy blue slacks with a purple tie, no jacket, a dark gray button up. I Think he wants me to tell you it's just gray.

Speaker 7:

Oh, it's just gray. Oh, it changes everything. I think I think he was a manager at a cell phone store.

Speaker 10:

Oh no, he's playing charades with me, right now Okay, I would say Public defender. Oh, he's doing a golf swing.

Speaker 6:

Oh.

Speaker 10:

I dated a golf bro once yeah.

Speaker 6:

Wow, so maybe you're in Augusta, maybe you're down in Georgia, oh.

Speaker 10:

Fuck.

Speaker 6:

I hope not do those long still count.

Speaker 10:

I'm gonna call him Roger. If Roger keeps this up, I may need an abortion.

Speaker 6:

Remember Roger's dad. He's dead. He's dead.

Speaker 10:

I don't think they work. No, he's still doing a golf swing. Man didn't make his dream. I think he's upset about it. This is like a freaking John Dunn hole His future never came true.

Speaker 7:

Oh well, you keep tabs on Roger and on Michael and we're gonna call you back here. We're gonna see where you are here in a little bit.

Speaker 10:

All right, sounds good. Thanks for having me, guys. Makes me feel alive.

I'm over-vented, that's an effort move and you might tell me it's good texture.

Speaker 3:

Yes, hello, my name is. Gabe. Gabe.

Speaker 3:

Egg yes, it was Gabe Egg and I just wanted to call in to thank you for bringing to my attention the film these Hands. It's really just knowing it exists and it inspires me to cinematic masterpiece of determination and fighting. And I hear there's a dog in it and I know that once this film people see it, they'll just know that this creator was a once in a generation talent, like a step on Bill Bush or whatever that guy's name is. I was piddled after this new guy. Anyway, there we go, oh there we go, oh no, they seem to have gotten me.

Speaker 3:

Oh no, the zombies are coming. Oh, I'm definitely dying. Please don't try to contact me again.

Speaker 6:

That was Good Intentions by Glass Bandit. You can follow them on all social media and download that track from Bandcamp. I'm telling you, gina, that voice, that voice is so familiar, do you not hear it, gina?

Speaker 7:

I think that I do. Here's my problem is I have that like voice blindness, so everybody kind of sounds the same to me anyway.

Speaker 6:

That sounds like a payable way to live.

Speaker 7:

It really is. It's pretty awful. Like I couldn't tell you, neil, dave, Susan, you all kind of sound the same. It's real weird.

Speaker 6:

Gina, we got to talk about the All Star Game. Did you watch, Did you hear about the All Star Game?

Speaker 7:

I did and I am grossed out.

Speaker 6:

Home Run Derby. Home Run Derby.

Speaker 7:

I don't know like to me. Just you know I didn't stop having these big events. Did we learn with the NBA finals? Now we have the All Star Game.

Speaker 6:

The Ashes too, the Ashes.

Speaker 7:

Yeah, I mean every major sporting event turns into a super spreader. I just don't get it Like as our need so great. I don't think so, but I do love cricket.

Speaker 6:

So I don't understand why people keep showing up to these things. And then one guy turns and boom.

Speaker 7:

You'd think they'd have better security for it. You know, if somebody's acting all funky, Get out of here.

Speaker 6:

But we've got our good friend on the phone from Florida Our baseball analyst and comedian. He's in that new movie Women Want Everything. We've got Jeff McElhaney on the phone. Jeff, how are you buddy?

Speaker 7:

Jeff, how's it going? How's things down there in Florida?

Speaker 6:

Sunny Florida.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, sunny Florida, you know, it's actually pretty damn good. I mean, I don't know what the rest of the country's complaining about. See seems to be a trend with.

Speaker 3:

Florida.

Speaker 13:

And you know we don't experience things the same way that the rest of you all do. Always separate Rhode Island's literally underwater, oh yeah, yeah, well, you know, the streets are under water sometimes here, but that's only when it rains, but that that's, that's a normal thing.

Speaker 7:

That's pre pre zombies there pre, pre zombies.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah we, we get along well with the zombies. Yeah, the hard part is you don't know the the average homeless method versus versus a zombie. You know, sometimes you got to get real close to actually know which is which yeah, I've seen.

Speaker 6:

I've seen a couple of those posts of Florida zombie.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah. But look we, we've got the alligator policing the streets. The alligators, I mean, they got the taste for the, for the zombie flesh. That's a really good point.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, yeah, did they get deputized?

Speaker 13:

Yeah yeah. Well, you know, we just have to spray paint them. That's how we do it here. You know they can have a uniform, but we could just, you know, we put their number on their back. And we know, we know, yeah, alligator 420, that is my favorite. He's a blast.

Speaker 7:

Oh, do they do. They should do like the, the live PD to they follow that right well, you know what I'm.

Speaker 13:

I'm trying to start that as as part of. I'm trying to do that as part of my YouTube channel, so We'll see if it takes off. Yeah, I'll get a ton of views.

Speaker 7:

Yeah. So, speaking of YouTube and things you're doing, I hear you just had a Premier for your movie. Women want everything. Tell us about that house and they do your work in this day and age.

Speaker 13:

You know we had. We had to get a few gators outside just for for additional security. Yeah, I mean, you know we had to turn away. You know normal people too. Yeah, you know, if you don't have a ticket, it was a sold-out premiere.

Speaker 6:

Nice Congratulations.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah, it was great. People laughed the whole time. God, I look way too much like Kenny Powers. It's, it's, it's almost not funny.

Speaker 6:

That's a couple of them.

Speaker 13:

I think, you know, I gotta lean into it at this point. I hope Danny's doing okay. Danny McBride's hopefully still alive out there, wherever he is, I'm sure it's not, you could double. Well, that's true if he's in the middle of a project, and he's been, you know, killed by a zombie. Yet they can just call me.

Speaker 7:

Get your agent on the phone.

Speaker 6:

So what's the movie about, jeff? Tell us a little background on it.

Speaker 13:

It is about four misfits Men who are trying to figure out what women want.

Speaker 3:

Um and that's not trouble right there.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, spoiler alert, don't figure it out. I Like true to life films, you know. Yeah, yeah, no, it was. It was very funny because I you know it was arguing when my co-stars About who was the least like their character and I play a character who's a Florida man with a bit of a drinking problem. He's a little sloppy, terrible with women, I'm like, oh, you know, that's basically me. Just I did a southern accent for the movie, so yeah, but it was, it was fun, you know at least you could say you're a researcher.

Speaker 6:

And when you get hammered?

Speaker 13:

hmm, yeah, it's part of the job or when you screw up a relationship.

Speaker 7:

That's the research.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah, I'm getting ready for the sequel.

Speaker 7:

Why women leave?

Speaker 13:

That's good. Yeah, yeah, they, they were seriously. Yesterday there was a Q&A after the premiere. Lean and hard. Apparently the the director writer is already working on the second. Screw nice. That's awesome he. He did say what if we? What if we did a version of this starring four women who would try to figure out what men want?

Speaker 6:

I'm like, yeah, I want one when men want boobs. That's. It's not gonna be very long, it's a very short film. Yeah.

Speaker 13:

But yeah, I, you know it's as far as the zombies go. I'm not gonna lie. I, I, I. There weren't a lot of single ladies at the premiere. Yeah so I, you know, I don't, I don't know if this is a worldwide thing, but we, we don't mind, you know, having some fun with the zombie ladies, if you know what I mean.

Speaker 6:

Oh no, yeah, that's actually. That's a common theme with the show.

Speaker 7:

Oh.

Speaker 3:

Good, I'm not a freak then right.

Speaker 7:

Not for Florida. Yeah no, it's a big thing down here yeah.

Speaker 6:

Oh.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah, it's a. I mean it's a booming business, I mean good God. Florida man I mean look, we're keeping them alive, we're you know, if there's ever a cure for this thing, we can. You know, don't totally back, maybe a little worse for the wear, but for more reasons than one.

Speaker 6:

But yeah, talk about waking up in the morning with a mistake.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, the biggest issue I have is I'm a big heavy drinker and, yeah, I've had some close calls because you know, yeah does the alcohol supply get affected by that.

Speaker 7:

I mean, we've had some supply chain issues here. I mean, are you guys able to get the booze to, you know, to get you tanked? Well, luckily for me, you know.

Speaker 13:

Florida boys are not that big of a deal. You know, florida man is a very, very smart, smart person. So we figured out the whole distillery type thing we're. You know it's. It's not as smooth as what I'm used to, but it gets the job done and that's really all it counts right.

Speaker 7:

Especially now. So now and I know that that we have the all-star game, you know yeah we have the. You know what happens there and you know I assume alcohol was involved in some way. But you know, I know I heard you like baseball, so I wanted to get your insight.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, did you hear? Did you hear? Did you hear about the incident at the at the Major League Baseball Star Game?

Speaker 13:

No, I didn't hear about the incident. What was that? Oh man, we're hoping you're gonna improvise.

Speaker 3:

I thought, maybe.

Speaker 13:

I thought maybe it was canon. I'll go back.

Speaker 7:

No, this is new canon that we want you to make, but that's okay, yeah that's my fault.

Speaker 13:

You know, look, it's raised. Fans and zombies are often confused for each other, and you know, they, they. Again, I blame, I blame Major League Baseball for not adopting the alligator security for the event.

Speaker 7:

You think it could have been solved all with that? You know, yeah, yeah, no that's.

Speaker 6:

That's an it. Who is the commissioner now, since the original one has been obviously has turned? Yeah, is it Bud Selig again, did they bring him back?

Speaker 13:

No, no, no, he's definitely. He was a zombie back in the 90s. Well done. Yeah, yeah, yeah no, he's out of the picture. I believe it's Paul Giamatti, because his grandfather was the commissioner back in the day, so you know yeah, keep that man safe at all costs and a great actor. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 6:

I hope.

Speaker 13:

I hope being commissioner baseball doesn't distract too much from his acting. We need him in the Kia commercials or whatever the hell he's doing there it was.

Speaker 6:

Einstein and Verizon, wasn't he just recently? Yes, he was.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah, he. He probably wish he was killed by the zombies at this point.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, yeah, commissioner, and doing Verizon commercials. There's no way. It makes sense. When you talk it out Loud would happen.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, yeah, you know he's a busy man. He stretched tooth in. He didn't think about the Gator security and you know, things happen, things happen I. I just pray that Randy Arosarana is okay in the end.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, that was awful.

Speaker 7:

It's awesome prayers, awesome prayers.

Speaker 6:

So when the movie, when it's available, if we follow you on social media, how, how, how could we do that? What's your handles? Do you have handles?

Speaker 13:

Yeah, I'm a writer, and Instagram. I'm at St Jay Mac J, m A, c and the Jeff Macalino podcast has a Facebook page. So between those things, those are probably the the big ones, and, of course, the podcast, you know, still up and running, not affected by zombies. I'm actually really hoping to get a few zombies on as guests in the near future. I want to hear their side of the story. Not sure it'll be compelling audio, but but we'll see. We'll see Right.

Speaker 7:

Yeah, we've got a zombie translator that we can get you in touch with. Ooh nice, that might help.

Speaker 13:

There you go. Yeah, look, look I I've had a flatterer on the podcast. So zombies, you know, probably not the weirdest people I'll have.

Speaker 6:

So did we? That's crazy. It is crazy. We had a legitimate flatterer too, like it wasn't even like an act.

Speaker 7:

So like they're like oh, this is part of my shtick, oh, yeah, maybe it was the same guy.

Speaker 6:

So you do stand up comedy too, jeff, is that correct?

Speaker 13:

A little bit. I've dialed it back. Really, when I got the acting role, I, I, I. There's a lot more freedom in saying other people's words and making them funny because, if it doesn't work, you can just say, hey, I didn't write it.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, that is nice, that's true. Robin Williams did that often as well. Oh, low blow.

Speaker 13:

Yes, I've, I've heard.

Speaker 6:

I've heard the stories on the road as a, as a comedian, on the road, with zombies. Was that? How was that? Did you take like a? Like a bus that was just decked out?

Speaker 7:

Alligators man.

Speaker 6:

Alligators, that's right yeah.

Speaker 7:

But in the cold, what if you?

Speaker 13:

went to Minnesota. Well, I don't do the cold weather venues. My, my comedy doesn't even travel. Well, there, cities are not like, they just don't get it. I'm I'm talking about, you know, relaxing, passing out on a beach, and they're like what is a beach? Imagine the snow is hot and brown. That's a beach and fun to walk on.

Speaker 6:

Yes, yes, yes, you know, tell them the story if you don't mind that you're in New York when you're at New York and you bombed oh my God, it was the worst.

Speaker 7:

It was so, so, like I forgot that people in New York don't really drive cars. I had this whole fucking bit about cars and like, like acronyms for names or whatever, and like I started doing I'm like, oh shit, this is going to fail hard. And then it just silence.

Speaker 6:

And then like somebody shouted yeah, oh, yeah, go outside.

Speaker 7:

Oh yeah. So it's like a fire truck, just like parked outside with its sirens on, and I'm like, oh, this is fucking great. And we shout like we don't drive.

Speaker 9:

It was awful.

Speaker 7:

I was like I'm going to just go jump off the fucking Birken Bridge now because this shitty yeah, the very first open mic I did.

Speaker 13:

There were nine people in the audience who were not comedians and six of them were friends and family, always, yeah, and I dropped my first joke and it is crickets and I'm like, really Two thirds of you are my, my family, basically and you can't even courtesy chuckle. They won't even laugh for you, like, come on, just go, that's it Just fake.

Speaker 7:

And I'm that person. I feel bad for every comedian, so it doesn't matter if their jokes suck.

Speaker 6:

I'm like oh yeah, you tackle for the support.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, the courtesy chuckle is like. You know, it's a must. You can tell the rhythm of a joke and you can tell when a punchline is even if it's terrible. It's a little, that's it.

Speaker 6:

Just the support. I love the groans. I know that my joke is great If I get it, oh oh yeah, oh yeah, that's.

Speaker 13:

That's actually my favorite reaction I ever had to a joke. I've got an audio recording of it, but it's a joke that takes a second to understand. It's not a racist joke, but you know. So everyone kind of paused and then the black people in the audience started laughing and then all the white people were like, okay, we're good, we can't, but there is a noticeable like two second delay in the laughter and I love it so much, absolutely.

Speaker 6:

That's what I think is comedy.

Speaker 7:

That's when it's a good joke, though, because it means you had to, like, get to it Like you had to get to it and let it flow over you, and then you're like oh yes.

Speaker 13:

Yeah, no, it was. That's my favorite. I need more of those in my accent.

Speaker 6:

Now do you have I assume that you have some alligators guarding wherever you are for safety right?

Speaker 13:

Yeah, so I was very fortunate. One thing that's a big advantage in this zombie situation is having a two story house. You got the high ground. It's really easy to defend. So, just you know, got some gators chained around the fence. You know, I'm kind of just building a compound.

Speaker 7:

Well, it kind of sounds like the question I think I've got is it sounds like the alligators either have something.

Speaker 3:

Yeah. I can't it's a very it's a sound.

Speaker 7:

I've never heard before and maybe it's because of it, I don't know. Can you look at this? Is there like a window or a door you could peek out, maybe and see what's going on? It sounds like quite a commotion, it's probably so.

Speaker 13:

Yeah yeah, yeah, I'll go. There is some noise on the back perimeter. I'll go check this out right now.

Speaker 6:

I'm sure it's perfect, I'm sure it's fine.

Speaker 7:

I mean, those alligators are a really good choice. They're hard workers too, yeah.

Speaker 13:

Well, the alligators missing from the perimeter. So I'm gonna have to investigate this a little more.

Speaker 7:

Okay, well, yeah, we don't mind waiting. We'll wait for you to come back. Hope it's not just like hanging there like the goat on Jurassic.

Speaker 6:

Park, jurassic.

Speaker 7:

Park yeah.

Speaker 13:

What the hell happened to this?

Speaker 7:

Oh God.

Speaker 3:

What's going on over there?

Speaker 6:

Jeff.

Speaker 13:

Oh my God, jesus Christ. Hey, it's a setup, the zombie. This is a zombie. I fucked last night. Oh my God.

Speaker 10:

What Gators, gators.

Speaker 7:

The table's a first You're a fake number.

Speaker 6:

Oh, he's, oh, no, he's gone. He's gone. Jeff Macalino, this is the song you die to no ships on my shoulder. I wish I was older. Clouds make shapes. But so what, early on in the diamond week, fish my cheeks just for the sake of it don't make sense. But I got magazine figurines. I got posters on my wall, big dream savings screens. I'll expose Some days never fade, cause my eyes are number three. Time makes never meant to die of grown. Lots of reason, at least love's a tits and this a freeze face and this a oh, my oh.

Speaker 7:

They say it won't be easy, but it's just a game. Forget what makes you stronger, cause you'll fail the same. I like to take it over every now and then, but I will live it all again. That was mid-2000s by the up and coming UK band Voodoo Bandits. You can check out their music on Spotify, soundcloud and get their song on Bandcamp.

Speaker 4:

This is Special Agent Robert Donovan. Here's what we know. A crucial piece of evidence in the 40 year old Crossing Guard Wars case seems to have made its way out of our control. The Crossing Guard tapes are the work of one, mike Limbo. October 31st 1988. Mr Limbo took a job as a school crossing guard and found himself in the middle of an ancient and unseen war between, well, school crossing guards and a cult hidden deep within the fabric of our society.

Speaker 3:

Three or four FBI looking guys jumped out of the sedan and hopped her suit.

Speaker 4:

We've allocated resources to monitor activity on the site wwwthecrossingdarttapescom and any and all podcast directory and distribution services that are seen to be providing refuge to these leads. We will be especially vigilant on July 13th, when the first installment of the Crossing Guard Tapes is released.

Speaker 14:

Okay, everybody, this is Red reporting live on the road. I'm down here in the Panhandle of Florida reporting from Panama City Beach. We've got our live extra reporter, poppy Perkins. She's got breaking news. Poppy, what's going?

Speaker 2:

on. Hey Red, we're here in the sunny state of Florida and I am here to report about, once again, the Florida man. Oh, so we've kind of been not having any zombie issues here in Florida. I mean, it's been silent. So anyway, talking to the Florida man boy, as he is crazy kook. Really I'm seeing him on the news all the time. It's kind of silent, but oh, I know he's just always doing something stupid. You know how he is.

Speaker 14:

Anyhow, what's the reason for all the silence. Isn't this like tourist season?

Speaker 2:

I mean, it's tourist season. You think these zombies would be just, you know, really quite having the lunch. But apparently these alligators have such keen senses for rotting meat and flesh that they seem to be picking them off quicker than they become the zombies. I mean, I was watching him one day. He says, and he says the alligators keen senses and even tell which zombie is a witch.

Speaker 14:

Wow, that's crazy, oh my gosh. So, like I said, with no zombies, I mean, where are the zombies going? I mean you said the alligators are like taking them out right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah. So alligators turns out, they've taken all these zombie bodies to this one swamp location and they have been there. They're just they're. They're eating so many zombies and so much so mass destruction of all these zombies that they're capturing they. They formed a system where they are eating and laying eggs like crazy.

Speaker 14:

So we're going to have more of an invasive experience with the gators that you're telling me.

Speaker 2:

The gators are going to be outnumbering us and the zombies?

Speaker 14:

Oh yes, I guess, I guess they smell that versus.

Speaker 2:

Hey we're going to be. We're going to have to do something. There's going to have to be something happening. I think I should be investing in boots, don't you?

Speaker 14:

I mean, if we're going to have all of these gators down there, somebody needs to take care of this issue. That's crazy. Well, for now.

Speaker 2:

we're thinking of shipping out the gators in the summer into some of these other locations, so they can at least have a nice summer Then when winter comes, you know.

Speaker 14:

Then you make your boots in your bags.

Speaker 2:

That wouldn't be a bad idea it's going to turn into a moneymaker for these, for these alligators. I'm telling you I'm I might get on board and buy some, some alligator eggs.

Speaker 14:

Yeah, no kidding, no kidding. Hey, poppy, thanks for that update. Keep us informed on what the Florida man's doing. I'm excited he's taking control. I never knew you could actually train a gator to be a zombie detector and just take him out like that. But I really think it's great because it's recycling. Who doesn't want to raise waste Right? Absolutely. I'm over the smell of rotting flesh ever since that train derailment and those zombies started laying around all canotonic. It's kind of gross out there.

Speaker 14:

So if they're, pulling it up and dragging them in the swamp it's no better way to do it. It's kind of like what the mafia used to do All right, taking care of business no kidding hey, Poppy, thanks for jumping on.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 14:

Hey, maybe I'll see you on the beach. You're not getting chased again, okay, right, right, yeah, I'm going to go ahead and get this back to Joe and Gina in the studio. Thanks for popping in, thank you, thanks.

Speaker 8:

Broadcasting a million watts of zombie busting power Brains 98.6. Zombies that had radio the mega station.

Speaker 6:

You know, Gina, I'm starting to think there's a connection between all of this.

Speaker 7:

You know, it almost seems like there's got to be a thread. If not, I'm crazy.

Speaker 6:

It's well, we need to put up one of those you know those things with the pushpins in the strings, because all of these guests are random, yet somehow everything, week after week, starts tying itself together in an impossible way.

Speaker 7:

It's like a web of information and somehow we're going to get a clear picture out of this thing eventually. It's like the Zodiac killer. It is we need, but we need descriptions, we need eye witness accounts.

Speaker 6:

It's just I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 7:

Well, you know, what we can do is we can talk to our next guest. We've got the co-creators of this amazing new podcast that just dropped yesterday right, just dropped yesterday. It's called crossing guard tapes and we've got jazz and William on the phone to talk a little bit more about it.

Speaker 6:

I love it. I got to tell you this is probably the breakout podcast of the year. They have podcast awards. I don't know.

Speaker 7:

So the crossing guard tapes guys tell us, what is that all about?

Speaker 6:

I have been dying to talk to you too.

Speaker 11:

Okay, it's about tapes about crossing guards. Yeah, we, there it is. We securely taped crossing guards, conversations there, interesting people, brilliant. No, the story was kind of came about because a lot of things it's really complex.

Speaker 6:

It seems very complex.

Speaker 11:

Yeah, dumb ideas, okay. So I used to drive my kids to school in the morning and there'd be some weird guy on the corner like just entertaining everyone as they walked by. Like he was. Like he was like this clown.

Speaker 11:

And I kept watching it, like every day he was there and you know people would be clapping for him and everything, and I went who is that guy? What does he, who does he work for? And so I assumed that he was signaling someone out in, out there. And you know there was something, you know more, you know deeper, deep state going on there. So that's where that started, but yeah, so it kind of I imagine this, this, that some dumb job like a crossing guard is a deep state, you know like, so, like I don't know if any of you have been crossing guards before, but I wasn't fifth grade because they outsourced it to the children in my school.

Speaker 11:

You're part of the deep state.

Speaker 7:

I mean, yeah, I can't really talk about that, we're one question in it I'm already in tears laughing.

Speaker 6:

It's such a brilliant idea to just look at a crossing guards and think what you thought, yeah.

Speaker 11:

Yeah, there's something way deeper going on so creative there's.

Speaker 7:

There's a huge organization. That orange belt is a utility belt, yeah.

Speaker 11:

Yeah, there's a, there's a lot of, yeah, all that, anything you can imagine.

Speaker 12:

And then, if you look at, stop upside down, right, it's Latin for conspiracy, right?

Speaker 6:

Is it? Is it really?

Speaker 12:

No, no, I'm joking.

Speaker 6:

I was like holy cow.

Speaker 7:

maybe this is real yeah.

Speaker 12:

It was like the whole.

Speaker 6:

Ford.

Speaker 12:

The alumni like symbols on the dollar right, the pyramid and all that right. We just take it further to crossing guards, absolutely.

Speaker 6:

I can't believe it. Like as soon as I saw it I was hooked. It's, I don't know, man, like it's better than squid game, Just so fascinated with the idea that you guys came up with.

Speaker 12:

Good, Good. This is all. Jim is like, don't pin this crazy.

Speaker 7:

This I mean unless it's brilliant and they'll take credit.

Speaker 12:

Yes, exactly, you just saw me dancing on the corner. He's like hey you, I feel like that's a true story. No, no, it's almost.

Speaker 6:

It's very lynching now, yeah.

Speaker 12:

Yeah, yeah, I'm on retainer with Jim now. He just yeah, it's all the podcast is just following me around and he's got a stop sign in my hand.

Speaker 6:

So what is some? So the? So the show's out now, because it's Friday.

Speaker 11:

Yes, we, we actually put it out a few years ago and we just weren't really quite happy with it. We kind of did it and kind of let it kind of go. And you know there was a lot of things I didn't like about it. It was the first time I had done a podcast where you know the the presentation of it was not very interesting, I think, and so we kind of re redid it and made it, you know, a little bit more just more mysterious and strange. You know, that's when jazz comes in right.

Speaker 11:

Yeah, the dancing on the on the street corner and with a stop sign. Yeah, that's pretty weird.

Speaker 7:

And yeah, dude's like this guy.

Speaker 12:

Yeah, well, he's like. This guy. Knows that's the oh when he saw me dance.

Speaker 11:

So, yeah, it's basically a it's a reboot kind of in a sense, in a big sense, like in in, in every sense that you can imagine, all senses of reboot, it's all those. Yeah, you know, I was always bummed because I thought it was a fun concept and I spent a lot of time putting all the sounds together and and creating these atmospheres and everything and I thought, well, you know, this is, this is. I mean, I've heard a lot of other podcasts out there and they were nice, but this had a lot more detail to my video.

Speaker 11:

And so that I was just like, well, I wish it wouldn't die all the way, you know, but but so you know. Then, jazz, I was driving my kids to school and I saw him on the corner there doing the doing the stop sign thing, and I went in and he said, hey, stop, let's reboot this thing. And I went, oh great idea. And you met him and that was the first thing he said to you yeah.

Speaker 12:

And then, after Jim said that it was a good idea, he also said get out of my car.

Speaker 7:

She got in the car.

Speaker 12:

With crossing guards. We we operate with impunity. Yeah yeah.

Speaker 11:

Yeah, it's a deep state, Just you know. Exactly, there's a lot more going on than you think. Just you know.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, so what of the story? Can you, oh sorry, go ahead?

Speaker 12:

Yeah, no, go ahead. I'm just going to say, yeah, like I feel like the. You know the reboot also was like a good opportunity to. You know, look at like um, not just like kind of you know putting that podcast out there, but actually creating kind of the you know the the elements around the story, um, and and kind of you know, pull more into that Cause. I think that's. I feel like that's kind of what was lacking from the first time around, was it was more just kind of like hey, here's this podcast and this time it's like kind of creating the atmosphere. I love it. And in the lead, up and everything too.

Speaker 7:

Yeah, I think when you revisit stuff like that too, it's like you don't have to create the bones Now. You get to really like sculpt it better. Yes, and and make it like really more robust, which this? It seems like it's so, like it's so in-depth in ways that you couldn't do if you were just figuring out your concept.

Speaker 6:

Yes, all that I've probably listened to the trailer like 10 times.

Speaker 7:

The trailer makes me laugh. I love it. The stranger things. Music kills me.

Speaker 6:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 12:

No, I think like there's just so much with the, with the story, you know the, the fact that it takes place in the 80s, just you know, the cause.

Speaker 12:

That takes just all the aesthetics and everything too. But then the core of the story, like you know, like you were saying, like we have the bones there too, so we have the core that we can build off of, but then the aesthetics that's around that too, just make it a lot more fun. You know, and it's, you know, a lot of fun kind of putting it out there, maybe too much fun, you know, with all the dancing and everything.

Speaker 6:

So, tell us a little bit about the story. What, what, where can you give us? For those of us?

Speaker 11:

Okay, sure, yeah, well, well, so it's this guy that that he's like in his you know, 30, 30 something, probably young 30s, and he's really clueless person he's. He's a person who doesn't have any desire to to think anything beyond keeping his car cleaned up and, you know, getting it fixed up and and hopefully, maybe having a date with a woman someday, you know, you know, or, or or somebody you know sounds like me.

Speaker 11:

Okay, so maybe this is your story, Maybe I was so. So the thing is he's not a very he's not very curious about the world, Right, and so he gets this job thinking and and he's not really smart, he's thinking, he's hoping with all this might that he can keep this himself together, to keep this job you know he wants. He wants to try really hard and impress the boss and all this kind of stuff. And then little by little, and then he fucks up right away. So it is me.

Speaker 3:

This sounds like Joe.

Speaker 6:

Let me guess he gets fired, becomes a drunk and loses everything.

Speaker 11:

Oh man, that's your story. No, this is different oh.

Speaker 7:

God.

Speaker 11:

No, there is hope, because what you have to do is claw your way back in. You call the boss and you say I'll do anything, just try me again, give me another chance. And of course they do give him a chance, but it's at a really crappy school really really crappy, really low grade and but he works his way through and he comes back and he's gets real serious about it and little by little things he starts noticing weird, weird stuff is going on with some of the other people that he works with, and, and, and at some point Deep state chaos ensues.

Speaker 6:

Deep state chaos ensues.

Speaker 11:

Right, it's a deep state, you know, and he gets kind of kidnapped into this organization and which is really like it's really got a lot of money behind it. They own all kinds of property they own. They have all these secret organizations. They get involved in government and all this kind of stuff, you know, and all kinds of secret things, and so they start training them to be like an operative. Okay. I love it yeah.

Speaker 11:

And he and, but he's, he's kidnapped, he can never go home. He's there. He's there and because they, they kidnap people that don't really have family, so they just kind of take them in and start indoctrinating them and he has to learn all this, all this stuff about you know, like you know all different languages, so you can, you know, if you have to go to the Middle East and talk to you know people that, like just all these different, Do they have?

Speaker 7:

crossing guards in the Middle East.

Speaker 11:

Of course they do. It's a deep state Come on Gina.

Speaker 3:

Everybody knows that.

Speaker 11:

Anyway, so so, so he goes on. It's really complicated. You should listen to it. It's, it's, it's, so it goes into some really crazy stories.

Speaker 6:

Absolutely.

Speaker 7:

Well, it's exciting that I want him to have a love interest. Please, whatever season, give him a love interest.

Speaker 11:

He's just trying to stay alive right now, but he does. He does have a crush on one of his. Yes, there's a crush.

Speaker 7:

He's got a crush. Yeah, so I'm a good crush. Yeah Me cute Crossing guard me cute. Yes. A deep state crossing guard Deep state crossing guard me cute, that's totally normal.

Speaker 11:

Well, she's not part of that. She's part of an organization that he escapes into who are fighting. It's really Wow, this this is deep. Yeah, it goes there's. There's some people out at war with each other, you know, and you know they're. It's so hard to, it's so much, it's, it's so deep that it's it's called a deep state for a reason.

Speaker 6:

For a reason I feel. I feel like you don't sleep with all these ideas. Is that true? Do you sleep.

Speaker 11:

You know, yeah, sometimes OK. Yeah.

Speaker 12:

That's when the deep state starts skinning him, though.

Speaker 7:

He can only sleep for three and a half minutes at a time that's right.

Speaker 1:

That's how long it takes to track him.

Speaker 11:

I'm on the run right now.

Speaker 1:

I gotta go Talk to you guys. Hear the car sound.

Speaker 12:

So how do we never get on zoom?

Speaker 6:

And now they found you, now they got you. So how do we find? How do we find crossing guard tapes?

Speaker 12:

Yeah, I mean the easiest step is is yeah, just any podcast directory like Spotify, google's there is on there. But if you go to the crossing guard tapes dot com, we have all the links there as well. But yeah, if you go to anything that like your corner, you know convenience store. If they have podcasts, which they probably do, they probably have it as well too. I think it's all you know we probably start, you know, get it on vinyl and all that too, Like just.

Speaker 6:

I got my copy. I got my copy from a bootlegger on the street.

Speaker 12:

Yeah, I've been seeing that too. Right there, They've impressed in. Cds and everything, and I've even heard Netflix is going back to DVD right With you know that is true, that is true. And so, yeah, pretty soon, like Netflix, will you know, we'll see a field of street view physically through. You know, I think now it's the old Wells Fargo, though stagecoach delivery.

Speaker 7:

I mean, I haven't seen it in a while, but it would have been good. Like that. Research, though, is the what was that Kevin Costner movie the Postman, like it's you know post apocalyptic oh I love that.

Speaker 12:

Yeah, I love that that movie right there, like I feel like that's, you know, paradigm for Netflix and the you know after the end times.

Speaker 3:

Thank, you so much for that.

Speaker 12:

I appreciate it, I appreciate it, I appreciate it, I appreciate it, I appreciate it, I appreciate it, I appreciate it.

Speaker 6:

Thank you so much for that. That character will now enter this episode.

Speaker 9:

No worries.

Speaker 7:

So, so with this, you know, this new venture that you guys are doing, what would you, what advice would you, give people that want to do something just so creative like what you guys are doing?

Speaker 6:

Great question.

Speaker 12:

Yeah, I'll let Jim start with that and I can follow up too.

Speaker 7:

We know your answer SEO. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 12:

And then you know, yeah, dancing exactly Well. Spoiler alert.

Speaker 11:

Okay, so so you're wondering what advice to give people. Is that what you're doing?

Speaker 7:

Yeah, yeah, if somebody has an idea, a kooky idea like a crossing guard deep state. What would you tell them to do with that?

Speaker 11:

I don't know. I mean it's like. It's like first of all, get it, get a microphone at home and make a podcast of it. First of all, write a story like write, write the story. It took me a long time to write, write the whole thing out as a full, a full story. It takes. You know, jazz and I have been working on a lot of projects together for many years and a lot of movies and film things and we both kind of got involved in writing and so you know it's, it's like, you know you, you could always try to find someone to collaborate with. That is a writer that you could sit here. Some ideas, can you? Can you help me flesh them out?

Speaker 11:

I don't know, you know I mean to me that would be a good, a good place to start because because it is a lot of work to put the story together first. You know absolutely.

Speaker 12:

Yeah, no, I would echo that. I think the other thing too is, like you know, don't be precious with the drafts. Like you can still kind of keep iterating on it, especially if you're starting out too, Like for me. When I was starting out, like you know, I was very upset that, like you know, first project I did was not like gold and it was the opposite of gold. I'll go on record and say that.

Speaker 12:

I had a lot to learn. I just, you know, also had to learn that I had a lot to learn. That was you know it's. I think Robert Rodriguez said like you know whatever I mean you know it works out to like you know, whatever medium you kind of want to work in, but his was film right and his was they. His day was like, you know, you get through like 10, you're 10 crappy movies before you get to the 11th like decent one.

Speaker 12:

And so it's about you know, like not not being too precious, like no win, to like call a project done and going on to the next, but also at the same time not giving up too early. It's finding that sweet spot of kind of perseverance, but not like you know death grip on something. And then you know, like Jim saying, you know you, you've got to. You know work, and I think you know podcast actually makes a lot of sense in that you can write it and kind of get through the. You know, get through the story that way and kind of see it on paper. But then when you take it to podcast it kind of gets it a new life because you start actually really hearing the characters and you might have to go back and write again too, so don't be afraid to do that.

Speaker 11:

Which I did a lot, yeah, cause originally I wrote it as as a like a book, you know something you could read and and it just a friend of mine read it and he said you know, that would be really fun as a podcast. And it wasn't even jazz, it was another person that was on the street corner with the stop sign and where do you live?
