Transcript of this episode, as transcribed by YouTube.

You are listening to the uncle of the podcast. My name is Aaron. I’m the nephew here with me. It’s the start of the show. Uncle 43, I believe. That’s right. 403. So everybody that we’ve been gone, the short kick here, we had too much stuff to do. We were off for about two weeks. Few weeks. Yeah. It’s too long for me. It was too long. It was too long. We’re glad to be back here now. Happy to be making a show. Uh we are on ochelli.com every Friday night where we can be. We’re back again. We are going to take calls as we always do. Phone number 319-5275016. So if you do happen to be watching this anywhere, you can call that number and when you do, you will come on to the show. 319-527-5016.

Anybody that happens to be watching on whatever streaming platform that you’re watching on. And we are on YouTube, we are on Twitch, we are on Tik Tok, and we’re also on Rumble and of course ochelli.com, the main one as always. So, if you’re listening, call up and we’ll talk to you. It’ll be a good time. We’ve uh as Uncle said, been busy, but uh um we’re here now. So, we’re glad to be doing this. And uh uncle, what’s happening? What’s going on here?

I just was talking about the uh soccer games. Soccer. Yeah, I was into soccer watching soccer games these days. These this tournament going on. World Cup. World Cup. It’s interesting. Now I can see why these people look like bananas over here. Two of them. Two of them here. Herman is uh other half is with bananas. Banana peel people here. Now I see why they are talking about this. Uh the Empires soccer referees is what about my wife and I both were referees for AYSO soccer because our kids played soccer and we were refs for it. And so we we have been uh bananas being the yellow shirt that you wear. Uh, so that’s what’s going on in case anybody wanted to know what that was meant, but that’s what they that’s what it’s mean.

Uncle, have you noticed in the World Cup in some of the games there are banana refs, they’re wearing the yellow shirts, but in others they’re wearing a different color shirt. No, I I have noticed. You have? Black. Mhm. Black, green. Yep. Blue. And blue, I believe. Yeah. Yeah, I’ve noticed that. What’s the uh object of these uh these webs now about that?

I think No, I’m going to have this conversation. I think that the reason is that they wear the color that they know neither team is going to be wearing on the field. So sometimes there will be a team like America played Australia today, right? Australia was wearing all yellow an all yellow kit they had on. Right. Right. So they made them black. So they had their blacks on. I was just wondering about that because I’m seeing they’re not all the same colors in because of what team is playing. I I understanding how they work now.

Now are these these zebras are these bananas people? I don’t know if there’s anything else to it other than that. I’m just assuming that’s what it is. That’s probably what it is. Seems to be something like that. So, uh, so there you have it. They’re not always bananas, but sometimes. And we sure like that bright yellow. It’s easy to see them out there. Yeah.

Um, once again, 319-527-5016 if you want to call. I’m not sure if anybody’s out there. Uh, Uncle, in addition to not doing this show in a few weeks, we haven’t been doing Tik Tok much. I did the first Tik Tok today in weeks. Well, we didn’t Yeah, you done one about the soccer. I We got to push a little more of the tic tac and more of things to do on it cuz I’m losing people. I’ve noticed I’m dropping some.

That was a rumor, uncle. Somebody around here said that we lost followers. That’s not happened. We have I never lose customers or or room whoever’s rooming it, they better cut it out. I mean, cut it out. I mean, stop trying to push them into trying to catch up with me. That’s not going to happen. Meaning meaning one person name your other side. My other side’s trying to catch up to you. Is that it? You’re talking about in follower count and following catchup. Yes, following ketchup. Really? Is that I didn’t even know that was going. I notice that’s what’s going on. I didn’t notice what’s happening here. I I understand this tic tac stuff. Okay. And I know that’s what she’s trying to do. Okay.

So, you we better get on the ball and start doing some more. Well, I agree with that. Slack on this stuff because of her being on tic tac thinking she can catch me. That’s a that’s a joke. Not happening. That ain’t going to happen. Okay. All right. All right. I didn’t realize there’s this kind of competition. There’s this competition there. That’s all right. I’m just letting you know cuz I gave that one for tonight to tell you. I gave that show to tell you about it. Tell me about it. Okay, that’s cool. Well, uh, yeah.

There is one thing I want to do though. Okay. What’s that? I want to go back to that man that you were discussing the man in that store about doing tic tac human computer. Yeah. You want to go back to human computer? I’ve seen them there. They’re there. There there. You’re talking about the store is still there. They’re there. I want to get back to that man.

I I do like that as a format where we go to like a weird local business and we just like talk to the owner and the person working there or whatever and, you know, we do a little TikTok of that. I think that’d be great. The human computer. They were a little thrown off by us when we were in there before, but I think if we went back they would remember us. I believe that they would and they might be willing to do a video maybe. I don’t know. It’d be a good possible. I don’t know. But we have to speak it better, talk to it better because I think I think the uh the the wife got understood it but the husband sort of was off. Didn’t really understand what we were trying to do. That’s my thing.

Maybe I thought about it. Yeah, they were trying to understand what the hell our deal was. And you know, good luck to anybody on that front. But uh we might go back and do that again sometime. I would like that. Be on quiet back there. Human computer everybody for all of your computer needs here in the wonderful city of Riverside, California. And that’s, you know, we don’t have any official endorsement with them, but we are endorsing them just because, hey, why not? They’re a local business. That’s the only reason.

So, there’s that. Uh, the dog is now in the room with us. So, that’s maybe good. I don’t know what’s happening to whether we like it or not. That’s what’s happening. So, that’s good. No calls because we’ve been gone for so long. Nobody knows we’re even here. I know that. I don’t blame my customers if you haven’t been there. What? Why should be, you know, it’s nobody’s fault. Um, let me see. I’m on the YouTube. I’m looking at the YouTube trying to see what for views maybe are going on on YouTube. It’s hard to tell. We’re streaming out. Uh, looks like somebody is watching on YouTube. So, hello YouTuber.

Um, if you want, you can leave a message in the chat or yeah, get in the YouTube live chat and we’ll definitely see the comment. Oh, wait a minute. Did somebody leave one? Oh, we’ve got Nick Gamer. Nick Gamer2693 over at YouTube who says, uh, hello. Hello. So, hello Nick Gamer. Thank you for showing up and for, uh, being in the chat. Well, you know, it worked, Uncle. So, that’s exciting.

So, not too bad. Right on Q. We we asked if you’re there to send a message in the chat and it worked and we’re very happy to have you here. Let us know. Um Nick Gamer, uh how do you find this tonight? Or have you watched the show before? Is this the first time? Have you been subscribing to the channel? What’s going on, man? Sound like to know the answers. Sound like he might be a new customer. Think Nick Gamer’s a new guy, uncle. I never heard a name. I don’t remember. I don’t remember the name, but he’s in there. But he’s in here.

Okay, so we got Nick Gamer. Anybody else who wants to leave a message in the chat? We’re going to respond to all of them. Any sort of chat that goes in there, we’re going to respond to. We’re going to engage. We must engage, Uncle. We’re making engaging content. And oh yeah, also, while somebody’s definitely here, they seem to be. We’ll put this out again. Anybody who calls this number will come on to the show. So, we use unorthodox. We don’t use the weird little built-in Tik Tok thing to bring people on or whatever the other ones use. We use the old phones. So, if you call the phone number, you will know the original phones. That is we do this the old way. So, call 319-527-5016. You’ll be on the show with us. So, there you go, everybody. Your open invite.

Um, let me see if there’s anybody. Let me open up the tick tock because there’s a Tik Tok monitor. I’m going to open that up. Oh god, what the hell is this? They cut you out. Well, I have to log in. I didn’t know I was logged out. Well, okay. Because we haven’t been here for long. That’s a reason. It’s okay. I don’t need that. I know that we’re streaming on TikTok. I can’t see the monitor now. I really wanted to. I’ve been able to see it before. I didn’t realize it’s logged out. Um, wait. I might be able to do this. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Log in with um dang it. No. Ah, whatever. Okay. Anyway, I’m not going to get into that. But we are on Tik Tok streaming, so that’s a good thing.

Are you sure we’re streaming? What what I just saw on the screen? I can tell that we’re doing that. Um I can tell that we’re streaming on TikTok, but I can’t pull up the live monitor is the only That’s the problem. So, we’re we’re on there. We’re good. We’re we’re okay. I’m not even worried about it. Um, let me see. I’m scared to go around YouTube too much because I don’t want it to make sounds. What the hell is this on this? Okay, it’s not making sounds. So, thank you, YouTube. Uh, whatever. We’re online, everybody. We’re making a show.

Here’s a picture of nature. You like that colorful picture of nature, uncle? What do you think of that one? Yeah, a nice green. The green purple purple come from though. I I made this. Look, here’s another There’s another picture in nature. You like that one? Different nature. There’s ones. Those are You like these? Yeah. Look at this. Here’s another one. These are uh this one’s some of these are national parks. This picture is it’s from Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. I like the way that the this image came out. This is a fun little um I got a bunch of these I use and I have in the queue on our OBS uncle for when we stream. I can just you know go through the different pictures and they’re really good for like I’m playing music and I want to like fade in between these. I just uh you know there’s all these cool and they do cool.

Watch what happens when I fade the colors. I I really like the way the colors mix as it fades. It does a cool thing with the colors. I think that’s really cool how it does that. It’s doing these fades in between these images. Oh, that one’s nice. You like that? Yeah. This picture right here is actually just kind of down the road from where we live out here. It is. Yeah. This is just kind of in a wildernessy kind of area of the Inland Empire that’s really rural and it’s it’s really pretty around here and interesting. And when you put these crazy when I do this process, this colorization process, I guess I’ll call it, I think it looks real cool. And here is we’ll do another nice fade into a photo that I took when we were in Yosemite National Park recently. This is a closeup of, you know, some rocks and some plants at the edge of a trail. And it’s pretty weird and psychedelic looking with these colors. I think it looks really cool. And these are meditative images, I would say. They have a meditative quality to them. We’re making relaxing meditative content tonight, Uncle is what this podcast is.

Something a little different tonight. We like this. We like this format or we drifting too far away from Uncle the podcast here. Uh, we’re not doing much talking. We don’t have the much people. We don’t. Well, that’s the problem. We don’t have a lot of that. We have Nick Gamer. We do have Nick Gamer. The dog is in the room with us. We’re live. We’re live streaming. We do where the heck we want, honestly. Um, I’m half tempted to do something weird. I just don’t know what exactly. Hang on.

Oh, what weird thing I want to do. I can um I guess for starters I can take this is the top of a shoe box which has been in our possession for more years than is rational to do. This is the top of a shoe box. What the heck is Well, exactly. Why would anybody have a shoe box top for anything longer than when you open up your shoes and throw it away? H I don’t know. I’m putting something in this box. I know. I’ve had this top for quite a while. Oh, I know what you think. Cards. Uh yeah, I put something in it. I’m going to wear the box on my head. It’s kind of hard to do with the headphones, but I’m pulling it off. And this is the new show. This is what we do on the show now. Well, he’s showing himself trying to figure out his head. Mhm. Because no one shows baldhead. Of course, it’s an eyesore. We’re not going to do that. We’re going to wear this on top of it so they don’t have to see my lack of hair. Don’t have to.

My hair color is clear. That’s what I like to say. My That’s on my driver’s license. Actually, it says hair color. It says clear. Oh, not going to say my date of birth. Sorry. I could want to know my height. No, I’m not going to say that either. Taller than average. I’m taller than average. Not that tall. I’m just taller than average. Average isn’t very tall. Oh, sure. He’s quiet, I tell you. I know. Um, like I said, I don’t blame this. You want to hear some music, uncle? I almost called you somebody else. Do you want to hear some music? I You do have a caller. We do. We do. Yeah. Where? Who? Oh, where and who? Who are these calls? Oh, somebody’s called. I put him on. See who he is. Patch him through. Patch him through.

What’s up, Thomas? Are you glad the next one? Oh, yeah. That’s a Is that This is Jimmy, uncle. Jimmy, welcome to the show. Right. Right. How are Jimmy? What’s happening? Good to have you. Well, uh, I drank a Baja Mountain Dew today, so that’s kind of different. Oo, I do like that flavor. Good choice. Baja Blast. Blast. Mhm. Yeah. Those aren’t drinks, by the way. Uh, I have a water. Do Do any of you guys remember when Baja Blast was only available at Taco Bell, though? Remember that? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it was an exclusive. Yeah, I remember that. So popular they bought it. Has the It has the Taco Bell logo on it. I bet they’re getting a nickel every time for every can. I found a few can two cans of sweet. Two can sand. Well, it could be co-branding, Jimmy, because it’s owned by the same company. PepsiCo owns Taco Bell. So that’s that, right? Yes. Oh, yeah. I guess the Yum Yum brands or something whatever the hell they call that. It used to be under PepsiCo. But you’re right. Now it’s some weird something like that. You know, like super delicious cowboy brand, you know? Clearly Chinese people didn’t buy it or anything, right? Okay. Just saying. Just saying. Anyway, forget the politics, but uh yeah, Pepsi owns Taco Bell. So, and they own Mountain Dew.

Now Aaron, I heard a guy, but the problem is is I heard him on coast to coast, so I have no idea if this is accurate. But the way he explained it, I guess I understand finally why they keep smashing those atoms and particles. Uh, do you want me to basically say what he said? I want to know if this makes sense to you, if this is your understanding. You’re talking about the Large Hadron Collider, this that thing. But but yes, I definitely want to hear it either way. If it’s something else, let us know. But then let us know what the story is, Jimmy. We need to know this. Yeah, that that’s the main one. I guess there are a few other, but again, this is according to a dude on Coast to Coast, so I have no idea. But the way he said it, I was like, “Holy crap, that almost makes sense.” He claims that they keep smashing these tiny little particles. They’re already teeny tiny and they’re smashing these things at near light speed. And the reason he claims they’re doing it is to measure the waves that it get the smaller broken off particles give off. The waves or the frequencies with the thought that when they finally have quantum computing, they think they’ll be able to then reproduce these waves or frequencies and create the recreate those particles. So basically, they’re trying to make the Star Trek replicators and transport machines real by doing that as was this guy claims. What do you think?

Uh, I mean, I don’t quite know what they’re thinking with that, but uh, probably the way it’ll end up working is whatever they can get out of their findings, they’ll just, you know, get what they take. Um, yeah. See, now that’s based on the concept that has been uh sort of elaborated on in Star Trek lore about how it’s supposed to be a transfer of energy and then the reassembling of atoms based on a a transporter pattern. That’s the alleged science behind the science fiction, Jimmy. Uh, I don’t see how that logically comports with smashing atoms together cuz that would be a an organized dismantling and then reassembling on the other end, which is sort of like a fax machine. You know, you you can transfer the information, but you’re going to print it on a different piece of paper. It’s weird. That’s why in Star Trek sometimes there are transporter clones that are created. Um, which is a weird thing too. So I would challenge that guy if I had heard him on coast to coast honestly because I think he doesn’t understand the collider, the Hadron super collider which is also you know the same name for Hadrian’s wall over there which was created during the Roman Empire and is one of the most explicable and ancient structures on the planet. But also uh the fact is I don’t think he understands Star Trek. So you know just saying uh that’s my two cents on it. But uh Aaron, do you disagree with me?

No, I mean, yeah, he’s probably just making things up. But, uh, whatever. It was based off a science fiction idea. It It’s an interesting idea and it’s fun. It makes a good coast to coast episode. So, you know, mission accomplished. Well done. What do you say, Jimmy? Yeah, it’s I don’t know. Once I heard the guy, I was like, “Okay, well, maybe you could transport and reproduce particles like he says, but how could you make it make the shape that you want?” See, unless this quantum computer that he speaks of that, as far as I know, doesn’t exist. Well, we might have that. Yeah, that computing technology might exist to be able to organize, you know, something into that many sophisticated molecules that might already exist. May not be in the public domain just yet, but that doesn’t mean that you have the capability of transferring the energy or the matter which would be necessary. You know, it’s actually more akin to like the uh you know the Jeff Goldblum, The Fly. Remember the movie The Fly, Uncle? Oh, yeah. Where the guy gets the fly stuck in his stupid chamber? Yeah. Yeah. That funny. I got a kick out of that one. Fly. Why the fly? He was one. Hey, where that funny go?

See, but uncle, do you like do you like the Vincent Price one, the old one, or do you like the uh the one with Jeff Goldblum where he’s brundlefly and it’s a lot more gross. Cronenberg. It’s the first one. First one. Okay. But either way, the concept is the same because they’re literally transferring all the matter, right? And so that’s based on the idea there’s a mistake and they mix the fly and the person together. That makes more sense than the Star Trek transporter concept, which is again, you know, was created really to save money on the TV show. It wasn’t about, you know, some high polluted science fiction concept, but it was sort of like, yeah, we don’t have to film them taking a ship down from their ship to get to the planet because here’s an idea. We have a magic transporter. Uh, so that was a money-saving thing at Desilu Studios. Really. But the concept has now been elaborated upon by a lot of people and there is a possibility in a quantum sense where you can duplicate a molecule or two. That’s as far as we’ve gotten. But smashing atoms together, I don’t know. It just doesn’t seem It’s sort of like, yeah, I’m figuring out how to feed the world by cleaning water. Yes, you can distribute water to the rest of the world, but that’s not going to give them food. You know, maybe maybe a drink. Maybe maybe a drink. No, that’s about it though. But not not food.

We’ve got a good thing going in the chat. We’ve got uh somebody else from Twitch joined us. We have random Rick Reviews RR saying space magic I believe in in relation to what we’re talking about here and he’s dropping an image of Space Ghost now from Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Can we get some of these people on the phone? Yeah, we need Yeah, we need Space Ghost to come back. I I wish Space Ghost would call in, but we do have Jimmy is the only person who has called in. 319-527-5016 if you guys can hear me. 319-527-5016. Maybe ask your YouTube chat if they can hear me. By the way, Aaron, sometimes they can. They should be able to. I see the I see the bars moving. So, if you can’t hear our producer, Chuck, let us know. But I I think that all is well because honestly whenever that happens, it’s because I pulled the digital knob down on you, the digital slider knob. But right now, it’s all the way up, so we should be good.

Good to have Rick here. Good to have Nick here. Nick and Rick. We got Nick and I just realized Oh, there’s a rhyme. Yeah, sure. Nick and Rick and roll, baby. How’s that? Instead of a Rick roll, we got a Nick Rick roll. How about that? Yeah. Sounds like something you order at a sushi restaurant. It’s a Nick Rick roll. It’s the house special. The Nick Rick roll. That’s great. It’s got special. It’s got a imitation crab in it. I hope you like that because it’s Oh, we got somebody else. We got somebody else. And as sorry, as Eddie Murphy once said, make special wonton soup for him. Anyways, yeah, I heard that one.

Oh, this is this is we’re getting Okay, now we’re getting a lot of people roll in from the chat. Maybe we’re eliciting this, but this is good. It’s great to have you all. We have Ken Vasquez 548. Yeah, we can hear him. Okay, good. I remember Ken has been here before. Thank you for coming back. We’ve got Rick Reviews one. Oh, now he’s over. Rick Reviews is was at uh uh Twitch. Now he’s over at YouTube. Are you guys over here, too? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we are. Well, so thank you for bumping from one platform to the other there, Rick. That’s pretty exciting. Yes. We also have an almost abandoned chat room at ochelli.com uh because uh people didn’t anticipate you guys coming live, but I’m in the chat room at ochelli.com where if you go and you press listen live and chat, you can go there and uh press the link and go straight to the chatango channel which is open anyways. Go ahead. Sorry, that’s the end of me talking.

No, no, that’s good. Yeah. So, we’ve got lots of chats. We got lots of action in the chat. Uh we’ve got Jimmy on the line as a caller. Anybody else is welcome to call in. If anyone in the chat would like to call this number, that’s how you come on to the show. We don’t use any of the like uh as I was saying before like the internal things through the app to bring people on. You just call in. So use a phone call 319-5275016. You can talk to us. But yeah, it’s great. I’m I appreciate the messages in the chat. That’s exciting. Uncle, there’s people here. There’s people with the show. That’s I Well, at least they know we’re back to live. Yeah. I mean, that’s who I want to hear. People back to life knowing that we’re still here, not lost. Yeah. Just came just was busy. Couple of times we couldn’t get on. Yep.

And with these guys, it’s great. Yeah. It’s great having people out there. It’s fun. It’s fun doing this show. Um, in case you guys weren’t here before, look at these meditative images. Look at these meditative images of uh, nature. And look what happens when I fade between them. Now that I know the audience is there, I’m going to really make sure that I bore people because I know that I I know. Look at that one. That’s like chwalk. Look at her walk. That’s herwok. That red one. Back up the red one. You want to go to a red one? Let me see. That one that was just Here’s here’s one with red in it. You No, no, the one before. Well, this one’s red, too, though. Look at this. You know what this is? This is Landers phase shifter. Phase shifter in the Ochelli chat room wants you to know that he’s listening to you on his porch right now. So, uh, there you go. On the porch listening, Aaron is exactly the message at ochelli.com in the chat room we have live, which now has five people in it. So, come and join us if you want.

Yeah, this is exciting. We’re bringing the people in, Uncle, at least we’re bringing them back. They know we haven’t been gone for a while. Back at it, everybody. It’s like we’re never gone. And let’s see here. Rick reviews is there. He’s saying, “Wow, a callin like old public access TV. Pretty cool.” Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It is very much like that. I had an access TV show in Columbus, Ohio back around the year 2000. So, you did? Yes, I did. So, I like that old stuff. I like old video and we love phones here. Um, so we use them and if you want to call, you can. And you’ll be on the show. Aaron, I have a weird question for you.

I also have another chat uh uh response over here. I’m not going to read all the chats, but I wanted to let people know it’s becoming active and live over here. Um but but question for you because I know you’ve watched other public access shows and I enjoyed a a great many of them in the New York and New Jersey area and I was even a guest on some shows, public access and otherwise, but uh you know, as a musician mainly. But the thing is, um, did you have a favorite public access show or did uncle have a favorite public access show that they enjoyed anywhere in the country? Because you guys have lived in different places. So, I was just curious, was there like a public access show you probably figure the rest of the world never heard of, but was really cool as far as you were concerned?

Well, I will go with one of the locals in Columbus that everybody in Columbus knew this guy, but if you’re outside of Columbus, you might have seen him. He was a guest on Sally Jesse Raphael like one or two times, but his show was the Damon Ze show. He goes by Damon Ze, of course, that’s like a persona he made. He’s like this goth guy. He’s this little dude that wears white and black makeup almost like black metal but not really but that kind of style you know and I got you. So, a very goth sort of guy. Real quick, random death medddler wants you to know that he’s listening to you driving home from work on the uh freeway, he says. So, he’s in Cali driving home on the freeway listening. Um, also, you know what? Remember, uh, the Family Guy episode where they did public access TV stuff and, you know, uh, they Peter and Lois went on the, you know, the big Kiss fan thing. Did you ever see that one?

I’m not I don’t think so. I haven’t seen a lot of those shows. Well, what’s hilarious to me is a lot of people don’t know this and I don’t know how uh any of the writers, one of the writers must have lived in New York for a while because there was a guy that would run the Kiss fan public access show where people called in and you just talked about Kiss, right? Uh then immediately after that, he had the next half hour booked and guess what? He ran the Battlestar Galactica show also on New York Public Access. Oh no. Super fan. And the only place I’ve ever seen that outside of literally watching it in New York City was I saw it on Family Guy where he’s like, “Okay, we’re done with the Kiss Hour.” And then he stuck on the Cylon helmet, like the 70s Cylon helmet. Oh, yeah. Which is exactly what that guy would do on that show. So, somebody saw that show and wrote for Family Guy and drew that. That’s I don’t know who. I’m just saying I know it had to be. Uh, my favorite was something called Runaway TV, which always had like crazy stuff that happened locally that the local news didn’t carry, and a local band. Oh, cool. So, they would do both things in their half hour. 15 minutes of crazy news, 15 minutes of these guys are playing a club next Saturday and some band you never heard of and they’re sitting there. Sometimes they were kids, sometimes they were old dudes, sometimes they were cover band at a bar, it didn’t matter. Local musician and crazy news, Runaway TV in New Jersey.

Anyway, and and just a side note, there was a channel which was supposed to be because New York had multiple public access channels, large city. Uh there also was a channel that after I think 10:00 at night, either 8 8 to 10:00 at night somewhere in there, it went away from the fan shows, the cooking shows, all this, you know, self-driven crap with people’s crappy cameras, and then all of a sudden became the pornography show until the end of the freaking night. And it was all about the dirty bookstores, the strippers, TV shows on there. And the most famous character to come out of there was um the guy who owned Screw magazine and Robin Bird. If anybody’s ever heard of those two people, they got some national prominence and all, but it was like porno actors and strippers and dirty bookstores and 900 number advertisements all night long. It was called Channel J. So anyway, that is the most remarkable public access stuff I’ve ever seen, just so you know.

Yeah. Well, yeah, cable access is great. And I see that um Rick uh Rick is in the chat again. He’s saying that I am originally from Indiana, a fellow Midwesterner. And we had Sammy Terry. So Sammy Terry was an Indiana cable access creator. That name sounds familiar, but I off the top of my head, I don’t know what the Sammy’s show was. I bet it was cool. So, yeah. I mean, cable access is great. I believe there’s still some cable access channels out there, but um it’s not the same. It’s it’s almost an unnecessary thing with all these like weird social media things these days. You just use that instead. Yeah. Nowadays, people digitally plug into their computer. They could do the public access, you know, easily from their own homes. Yeah. But back then, a lot of times you had to go to a studio. Mhm. Which was in the middle of some crazy place, you know, like one time I went to an apartment complex and there was like an abandoned looking basement in Nutley, New Jersey. And this is where they did a lot of the public access stuff and also filmed something called the Uncle Floyd show. I’ll bet you that Uncle knows the Uncle Floyd show cuz I was on something called Video Spotlight, which shared studio space with these guys in Nutley, New Jersey for the New Jersey Network. You you remember Uncle Floyd, don’t you? Uh, Uncle, I remember the name. Yeah. And the name is familiar. Yeah. He was like a goofy guy who wore a plaid always wore like a plaid suit jacket and like a hat. Yeah. Yeah. That’s Uncle Floyd. You remember him, right? Yeah. Yeah. I remember that guy. He was actually he was funny. Was he a funny guy? He was a funny guy and he had weird local people on all the time and occasionally like B and D-list celebrities.

But the funny thing about Uncle Floyd is that in the region the guy became so popular that at one time they said he was the most watched public access show in the country. So it was so big that people were like sending tapes to other states to so you could watch Uncle Floyd instead of New Jersey and New York only. Yeah. Him himself uh to show himself on the screen instead of you know what you just said. All right. And then apparently Sammy Terry, we’re getting more on that from Rick. He’s saying that he was Sammy Terry was more just like on a local channel. He was a ghoul who hosted scary movies on Friday nights. Okay, so that’s the local channels are separate to cable access, but there’s also some weird like lowbudget productions that only people in those areas know of that I find kind of fascinating as well. Like I I think people living in central Pennsylvania, there’s some weird stuff on the local channels there. So that’s that’s fun, too. So all sorts of crazy Oh yeah. And a lot of these still existing uh uh independent channels, right, that only have enough money to run stuff that you know that that’s syndicated from the ’60s and ’70s, like they they literally run the Brady Bunch every day. They literally run the Flintstones in their original form every day, right?

Uh you know, like those channels sometimes they have hosts and they’re always some knockoff of either Alvira or you know, some creepy ghoul the It’s time for the creepy ghoul movie. Yeah. You know, with Malice Cooper, you know, stuff like that. Yeah. Uh Yeah. And it’s just always wacky. It’s like Or they have a Crypt Keeper puppet or whatever, but it’s not a [ __ ] Keeper puppet because they would get slapped with a suit for, you know, copyright. I’ve always liked that. I’ve always liked that. When it was a Saturday night, lady was talking and and they were goofy shows about it. It was a lady. Are you talking about Elvira? Elvira? Yeah. Mistress of the Dark. That’s one I used to I used to like I liked her. Yeah. And sadly, she was a ripoff of a lady named Vampira. Oh, Vampira came before Elvira, but she was already all washed up. And they did basically the same thing with the cleavage and all except in the 60s cleavage versus the 70s and 80s cleavage. But other than that, yeah, that’s they did the same thing. Uh, Vampira ended up working with Ed Wood. You know that name, Aaron? Ah, yes. I’m sure. Yeah. The director. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, just like uh what do you call it? The the old guy who died. What was it? Oh, what was it? No, not Carlo. Uh, the other guy. Not Boris again. No, not Vincent Price. From horror. Yeah, he wound up doing his last movie was technically with Ed Wood. Uh, I can’t think of who you’re talking He was the guy who always played a vampire. He’s slipping my my mind right now. The name it’s not Boris Karloff. No, Boris Karloff was always Frankenstein. He was known for that. Yeah, Frankenstein. I remember that. Who was the Oh, Bela Lugosi. Bela Lugosi. Go. Bonosta, of course. Yeah, Bobby Goa. All right. His last movie technically is with Ed Wood, right?

Anyway, Vampira worked with all that mess. Uh, and and you know, had a career that went down the toilet. Elvira became a, you know, a celebrity for a while. Elvira, remember? Right. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Elvira has done quite a few things. I think Peewee Herman was buddies with her and she was in the PeeWee’s Big Adventure movie. She was. Yeah. I’m fairly certain I recall her having her own movie too, Aaron. Uh, yes. They made an Elvira movie. They made a movie and every time she was on, they had to show a show. And after the show was over, she came back on. Yeah. Now it’s something like that. Yeah. Yeah. I remember that. Yeah. Yeah. Sure. And well that and she talked during the breaks where that too. Oo that’s giving me a big chill. We’ll be back in a minute. You know very silly. A can a corny person that uh does like for the Halloween system. Rick is saying that Elvira still looks good for her age. That’s what Rick is saying. And that is Yes, that’s actually a topic of discussion. Thank you, Rick. You’re correct. There are people still saying, as old as she is, still looking good. Uh yeah. And there was a reason she was host. So, you know, it’s an And uh as Chris said, Rick said, there are two reasons to watch Hellfire. Is that matter of fact, is that on anymore since we got this music on here? I’ll bet you can watch the old shows online somewhere. They got to be they got to have them somewhere. But it might even be on the streaming platform somewhere. I assume I haven’t seen any of that streaming.

Rick was also saying something about the guy that plays Count Dooku, Chris something he says. I’m not sure. Is that when we were talking about um uh Bela Lugosi and all that? He he was mentioning him. I don’t know. I don’t know. But uh yeah, horror shows, uh weird local shows. This is like a cable access show. And if anybody does want to call in, you still can. We do have a few minutes left, so you could call in 319-5275016. Here’s our very cool graphic for that. You may call in. Uh, it’s great. Thank you everybody for being here tonight. Man, I’m really excited and surprised that there’s so many people out there listening. Uncle, isn’t this wonderful? Very good. Now, are we still got the outside United States once? Uh, yeah, I’ll check that for you directly in real time right now. Okay, I will do that right now. Get the results of our international international uh callers. I I’m I’m interested in them because they know I got you. Also, no change in the score of the show you wanted me to check on or the game, excuse me. Right now, our only international listener is guess where? Germany. So, Germany. Back in Germany again, Uncle. Wow. Back in the pub. Oh, that pub is very good. It’s a lively place. I would have liked to seen that vacation sometime to go and see that someday.

So many questions pop up when you realize that they’re playing the Ochelli Radio Network as much as they do. I mean I mean they’re the only ones that I know of that’s in a bar that says that’s leaving listening to me speaking. Yeah, they definitely listen to you. There’s no doubt about it. So yeah, I hope hope you all are enjoying the strange shows in English that I wonder if it’s the whole bar listening if they had it on like the back room or like again here’s these questions that we have when we know that that’s what’s happening. But uh it I don’t know. It’s it’s fun. Chuck, did you ever get in contact with the people at that bar? Did did you ever get a hold of any of them? You know, I’ve made several attempts and I’ve only gotten messages back from people that have been in the bar, not the ownership or the manager or none of it. Okay. Oh, what they say that it plays on like some sort of thing that everybody can hear. Yeah, it does. Yeah. Instead of the TV audio, they leave the TV. There’s TVs there and so there’s TV pictures going on and then on the speakers throughout the place you’ll hear ochelli.com radio network sometimes. Well, I had them hooked up pretty good when uh we started this. Yeah. Right. Okay. So now isn’t that good?

You never when you make stuff like this, you never know where it’s going to end up. So that’s uh that’s the point. Mhm. So yeah, that’s pretty exciting. So thank you German pub for being there for so long. Thank you to all the listeners listening. Thank you to the chatters chatting. Thank you Jimmy for the call in if he’s here. Yeah. Yeah. Jimmy’s still there. Uncle, do you want to do you want to ask Jim anything right now, Uncle? Um so how you been up to these days up there, Jimmy? No, I shook you a couple. Oh, I know. I heard that. Any other news uh in your state going on? Nah, Michigan’s pretty boring. Yeah, boring up in Michigan. Okay, so there’s your Michigan update for us on the live Jimmy James. Well, Jimmy, I I know the Tigers have to be doing better than the Mets, but how are the Tigers doing this year? Oh, yeah. Yeah. How are the Mets? Tigers. Tigers. They beating. They beating, huh? Oh, they they ain’t going nowhere. Okay. So, they they can hang out with the Mets then in a couple months. All right. Gotcha. They should go to the bar in Germany and hang out together is what they should do. Yeah, that’d be cool. Yeah. Try to go there. Why not? And see what happens. Oh, no. I I I heard that the Scottish soccer hooligans that came in for the World Cup, they went to Boston to drag up all the blues. Oh, and all the Boston people were all mad. Is that true? What? That is hilarious. Soccer hooligans. Dr up all the blues. I can’t even get a beer.

Okay, you know how that started? Uncle’s going to love this. The soccer fans, right? They they they went to uh Boston in that area and they went to some event and then afterwards somehow a bunch of them and I mean a serious bunch of them got tickets to a Red Sox game and they showed up there made their presence known and practically drank the place out of beer. I can’t that is that is that’s funny. That is funny. I got a kick out of that one. But then the Scottish Wait, it gets better. Then the Scottish guys left and continued on with their like like their bar crawl across Boston, which is hilarious. They went to a soccer game. They probably never seen a baseball game. Somehow they got in on that and then they did a like a crawl across Boston and apparently leaving empty booze places in their path. Wow. Uh I mean like seriously, it was like a it it was like drunken Scottish pirates in Boston, right, Jimmy? That sound like funny. Yeah. Yeah. And and a and a side story is one of the things I was going to do in that thing, Chuck. The Japanese tourists keep following them to pick up the trash. Pick up the trash. Behind them. Behind them. Pick up the trash. The Japanese soccer hooligans are opposite. They’re not hooligans. They’re They pick up trash and help it out. No, the Japanese guys want to clean up after themselves. Help out the other fans. They’re like nice guys. The the Scottish guys are like, “Let’s just get drunk and throw crap everywhere.” Which is hilarious. You’re right. It’s so funny. You know, you’re right. I forgot about that part, Jimmy. You’re right. If we ever gone to one of those games and seen that, we probably laugh our heads off. Oh, yeah. I mean, it’s a big to-do.

People try I mean, people go nuts up there. Crazy stuff. Hey, there was one of these commercials about one and he said, “Do you know where the lobsters are and he had to find him because he was so because he’s screaming.” So, lots of interesting ads running during the World Cup. The big soccer players that everybody know in the US, they’re cashing in on it because they’re on like every other advertisement. There’s either David Beckham, Lionel Messi, or um who oh that new American star. He’s in a few of the commercials, but those guys, especially Beckham and Messi, are in everything. But, uh, we also and Messi Messi, just for the record, is now huge in sports trading cards. All of his prices have gone up by by a factor of 10. Oh, wow. Uh, so Messi is huge right now. And uncle, just so you know, that game that you wanted me to watch is at halftime. And right now, the score is Paraguay 1, Turkey zero. Okay. It’s okay. Yeah, that’s halftime. That’s okay. Okay, that’s good. That’s okay. They stay stay at that and then they get better and they try to get a score. I hope Turkey does.

We have Ken back in the chat and he’s asking how many more bars need to stream the Ochelli audio feed so Chuck can get some good ad revenue from it. And he’s suggesting why can’t we all just leave the stream on with one or 2% audio and leave it on the whole week. So there we go. Yeah, it’s not a bad idea. Go ahead and do that. When I have a week, you’re working on crazy stuff. I would love it if it was that simple, but the fact is I own my stream and I charge no one for the stream. It is completely free. So sorry. The only people that charge anything are the people that are taking my radio stream and running it through their radio apps. Those people might charge, but it is free at all times on every platform I can keep it on. If you want to contribute, you can do that, but that would require direct contribution. Uh, also, if you download the podcasts afterwards, uh, you know, a fraction of a penny comes to me for, you know, every 10 of them or something. But, uh, whatever it is, I appreciate any help I can get. So, leaving the stream on does me no good, except it spreads around the name, which is good. And, uh, look, share the show, tell a friend, put it on your social media. That will be more helpful to me than anything. And if not, you got a couple of dollars, you know, you should kick it to the independent media so they remain independent. Help out Aaron, help out me, you know, help out any independent media guy that gives you something of value. Give him some value or her some value for the value they give you. Whether that’s Aaron or me, you buy Aaron’s book, which by the way, somebody stole your book again. I want you to know that at the flea market. Oh. Okay. The third time. No, that’s the third time I’ve had Aaron’s book stolen when I’m down to like my last copy. And I don’t know why that keeps happening. Uh I kind of like the idea that somebody actually wants it at all. So to me, that’s kind of good that somebody looks at like, “Oh, I want I want that.” I used to take that attitude when people stole my tapes, you know, when I used to run around selling demo tapes as a as a local musician where it was like, “Well, at least they thought that it was valuable enough to steal.” Mhm. Uh, you know, but at the same time, it kind of sucks cuz you don’t get paid. Yeah. But either way, uh, yeah, I got you.

But I just want to remind people that they can contribute at the age of transitions.com. They can go over to ochelli.com. There are some options. And I have a cash app, which by the way, guess what is just dollar sign the Ochelli effect. That’s who I am on cash app. And that’s the only functional anything I have. It goes directly to me. Okay? But look, support the independent media that has provided you value. Give them value for value. And if you contribute at the age of transitions.com or you buy a book, you’re also helping out the uncle podcast, just so you know. Okay, so there you have it, Aaron. I just gave you a little ad. Thank you. Appreciate that, Chuck. Yeah.

And we’re here at the end of the show, so we’re going to have to go to shout outs. I suppose we’re gonna have to go over to Jimmy, isn’t that right, Uncle shout outs? To Jimmy. All right, Jimmy, who you got for shout outs tonight? I think uh maybe Jimmy isn’t there anymore. Oh. Oh yeah. I just I listen I I took me a minute to hit my button, but apparently Jimmy did hang up. I’m sorry. Oh, okay. Well, uh thank you Jimmy for being on the show. We’re glad to have you as always. Thank you for calling in. I guess we’ll take it away with shout outs. Uncle, who do we need to have do a shout out here? You can. Me? Okay. Well, I’ll shout out uh everybody who showed up. We have Phase Shifter in the Ochelli chat listening on his porch.
