Speaker 1: 0:43

welcome back to another super awesome mix. My name is matt said, home alongside my co-host and co-founder of super awesome mix, sam abusalbi sam. Uh, this is a long time coming, but we're, we're giving. We're not giving the people what they want this week, right, yeah, I was gonna, I was gonna ask you, you know what the worst is?

Speaker 2: 1:03

this, this mix this mix.

Speaker 1: 1:07

This is kind of a bonus episode, so last year we went to kind of every other week as a format. Uh, we decided this year, you know, we throw in a couple bonus episodes on what are normally off weeks where we run. You know, one of our, one of our classic mixes, and I don't know we've been toying about that with this idea maybe since season one. I feel like just the idea of, like the worst mix ever.

Speaker 2: 1:32

Yeah, no, this was. This was really fun, because obviously our aim is to create good mixtapes, you know, listenable ones. But then every now and then, you know you just have that thought creep in. It's like what would happen if you just put together like a really bad mixtape for someone Like you know, because, like I would say, the aim of a mixtape way back in the day is, you know, it's like it's a bonding moment. Maybe you like someone, maybe you just want to be friends with someone, maybe you just became friends with someone. You're like, hey, let me make you a mix of like the music I think you'll like that I also like. But maybe there's scenarios where you just want to punk someone or you don't like them and so you make them a mixtape. That is just atrocious.

Speaker 2: 2:14

And you believe that they will dislike every single song. So that was the challenge we gave ourselves. We kind of appropriately decided that it would be an April Fool's mix. So that's that's around the timing that we decided to do this. And and yeah, so we were each charged with six songs. We're doing an A side, b side, and the goal was to get the lowest possible score. So we're going to rank every song one to ten and then we'll add them all up at the end, and our goal is that we succeeded in giving you know like for me. You know the mix that I made for matt. I hope that he absolutely hated it. It scores like a six out of 120, so we'll see how that goes yeah, the lowest score would be a six.

Speaker 1: 2:57

Maximum score would be a 60 60 right yes, for some reason you liked every single one of these songs, but yeah, it was very much designed to be. I picked six songs that I felt sam would really hate, and so, as we go through these, you'll hear my commentary on each of these songs. Uh, you know, good, bad or indifferent, but really the intent was I wanted Sam to hate each of these songs and then vice versa with the mix that he gave me.

Speaker 2: 3:26

Yeah. So with that, let's get this rolling. So A-side is the mix that Matt made for me. So I will be introducing each of these six songs and then, as he just said, he'll kind of cue them up and I'll give you my reaction and my score. So let's get rolling. Track number one you picked and this is a great strong opener for any other mix, I'd say, but this is how you Remind Me by the one and only band, nickelback all right.

Speaker 1: 3:52

So Nickelback maybe this is just low-hanging fruit. Right to just pick on Nickelback. Maybe this is just low-hanging fruit right To just pick on Nickelback, because everybody kind of does it. But here's where this one's doubly bad One. It's just a bad song, right. I feel like it's kind of meaningless. It doesn't sound great, but this has been played on the radio like two trillion times and even if you try to actively avoid it, you will be out someplace and this song will play. So everybody knows this song. That's the other part. It's overplayed and it's bad. Here's the thing with Nickelback.

Speaker 1: 4:25

I've watched the documentary that I think was on Netflix and that tried to kind of paint them as like hey, why does everybody hate this? Like, look at all their loyal fans. These guys seem like really nice guys and, frankly, kind of dorky, and I think that's why people hate them is because they're out there trying to be rock stars and trying to like talk like they're all cool when it's like, yeah, we know you guys are just dorks, and it's like there's just an inauthenticity to it. So the more I watch this documentary, I like the guys. They actually seem like great guys. But I was like I'm, I'm out on this band. I can't get into any of these songs. So, all that being said, sam uh, with my first pick, how much did you hate this?

Speaker 2: 5:08

okay, so I actually have some bad news for you. I I used to listen to nickelback all the time, so so this hit really high on nostalgia for me, so I had to rate it higher than than I probably would in any scenario, okay, okay but don't fret, because there are some other picks here where you make up for this um.

Speaker 1: 5:32

So where did this one land? What was your number?

Speaker 2: 5:34

this one landed as a seven out of ten. Um, wow, yeah, 7 out of 10. Because obviously they had to lose points. Because, you're right, this is not a good band. I put them in the same category.

Speaker 2: 5:45

You maybe could have swapped in a Creed song and you also would have expected a very low score, but I also would have scored that high because of the nostalgia thing, because, to your point, they played everywhere um all the time. And I think you know we have a mix coming up later this year that we're going to name the stockholm syndrome mix, which is like a song that is so terrible but you hear it enough times that eventually you're like yeah, you know, I like this song.

Speaker 2: 6:07

This would be on on that for me. I believe, um, I think I just got overwhelmed with nickelback and creed to the point where now, many years later, I'm like oh yeah, you know what this song does remind me of a good time, if you will.

Speaker 1: 6:21

See, I was out on, I was in on Creed, then I was out on Creed and then when the Texas Rangers won the World Series a couple of years ago they're like Creed was kind of their song that the guys would sing in the locker room and so that's where I got back in on Creed. So I'm like, yeah, it's been a roller coaster. But yes similar vein as far as the band goes.

Speaker 2: 6:41

All right, so that was the first one. 7 out of 10. A rocky start, but it's okay. You kind of recover here.

Speaker 1: 6:50

This next one is Insensitive by Jan Arden. Okay, so this is just a classic, yeah, emo 90s girl song. Okay, she's kind of whiny and I've said this since 1995 or 6 whenever the song came out. Right, the guy doesn't even know what he did wrong. Right, like this is that classic example where she is calling him insensitive for some reason and he doesn't. He doesn't know what, what happened, right, like he just knows he's the subject of the song, at least Taylor Swift. It's like you know who the guy is, you know what happened. Like it's pretty direct Sure when this is real wishy-washy as to what this guy did wrong. This is Jan Arden's a one-hit wonder Like this was actually a kind of this got a lot of radio airplay.

Speaker 2: 7:49

This was kind of popular when I was in college and yeah, I mean, it doesn't hold up and it's just an awful song. So, sam, how much did you hate this? This one from the opening notes had kind of an immediately no response from me, any kind of like soft rock or soft piano play like that it just kills me.

Speaker 2: 8:00

I'm like why is this music, you know like what, what? Why I don't want to listen to this. However, she earned like a couple of points, not many, a couple of points, because I did kind of enjoy the chorus, like the chorus was okay, yeah, um. So she earns a little bit of points there, but overall this gets a four out of ten.

Speaker 1: 8:18

I really did not like this song. Yeah, okay, yeah, well done.

Speaker 2: 8:23

Thank you, well done oh goodness, yeah, I love the generic like I'm sad song you know. Well, that way, you know, you just broaden your appeal, matt, um, you're like yes, I could apply this to anything all right, let's go on to track number three. Uh, here's where you really pick up steam and you know this was probably kind of an obvious one for you to pick, but this is thinking problem by david ball okay, I love country music.

Speaker 1: 8:52

Sam long-time listeners of the show will know sam's not a huge fan, but every now and then I get him on a country song where he's like this is pretty good. He's got his uh fabled scale of country music where he writes songs. Okay, I don't even like this country song, so I knew when I did not like it that you would hate it. Okay, most especially the way he says thinking problem.

Speaker 2: 9:15

Okay, I mean this was a radio hit Like.

Speaker 1: 9:20

This was a big song for david ball. So, uh, sam, how much did you hate this?

Speaker 2: 9:25

yeah, no, this was, uh. This was your strongest pick in terms of. In terms of how much I dislike this song, I give it a solid one out of ten I'd actually given it a two out of ten, and then I was like no, like this doesn't even. I don't even know where it earns any points. It is so twangy it's a very, very twangy country song.

Speaker 2: 9:45

And that's where you lose me like yes I just imagine myself sitting in some bar somewhere in the middle of texas and it just made me want to just stop you know, just like I couldn't.

Speaker 2: 9:54

I don't even think I could listen to the whole song, so that's why it was a a solid one out of ten. Well done, um, but you know I I knew you were gonna throw some country on here, but well done with this pick, because it is the most country of country songs I can imagine. Awesome, all right, um. This next one I believe we've talked about before and it's still just as shocking to listen to it now. Well done, it is stroken by clarence carter okay, I actually love this song of course, yep, of course you do?

Speaker 1: 10:29

I believe we included this on our do not play at a wedding playlist yes, I told the story of being at a wedding and a groomsman doing a lip sync to this and no one really understanding what was going on. But he just kind of went for it, sure, and um, a lot of people outside of me did not know this song before and did not know what was coming and um, anyway, uh, so anyway I love the song. Clarence carter's actually got a lot better songs outside of this, because in this one he doesn't really sing, he just sort of talks over the beat. But I thought you would just be so offended by it that you would hate this song. So how much did you hate this song?

Speaker 2: 11:09

yes, um, okay, so he earned some points because the lyrics are hilarious, yeah, and it does kind of grow on you like it's catchy, you know, like like once you get over what's happening, you're like, okay, this is actually kind of catchy and you can listen to it. And again, the lyrics are hilarious but still a pretty terrible song and I have to wonder why it got made. I get this one a three out of ten okay that was actually I wasn't sure.

Speaker 1: 11:35

I was like, hey, he might like this, I don't know, but I just went for. You're going to find it so offensive, but for me it's a nine out of 10. But that's just me.

Speaker 2: 11:47

That's awesome, all right. This next one is track number five, wrap it Up by the Fabulous Thunderbirds.

Speaker 1: 11:56

Okay, the Fabulous Thunderbirds are kind of the like Mountain Dew of music that it's just empty calories, like I don't know what this genre of music is exactly. It's hard to place. It's not like it's kind of rock, it's a little country-ish, whatever. Like the lyrics just make no sense. Like I love you baby. You wrap that up. I I'll take it like what are we taking what is being wrapped? Exactly like it's just such a nonsensical song and just so repetitive. I just thought you would hate it. So tell me I'm right you.

Speaker 2: 12:36

You're pretty right on this one. Um the first note that I wrote. I love that you said it's a mountain dew of music, because I was like I don't know why this exists like this is one of those songs. I couldn't find a purpose for this to exist, for someone to have recorded it and and produced it and sent it out into the world. Um, also like what are they talking about when they say rapid?

Speaker 1: 12:57

f. I agree like what are they?

Speaker 2: 12:59

it just makes me uncomfortable. I don't know what's being wrapped. I don't know what these lyrics are. Um, it's an odd, odd track. So right.

Speaker 1: 13:07

Is it human trafficking? Is that what's going on here, right?

Speaker 2: 13:14

is it a?

Speaker 1: 13:14

shipping container that they're being wrapped in like. None of this makes sense?

Speaker 2: 13:18

no, none of it makes any sense. It just absolutely makes me uncomfortable for some reason, and maybe I was in a good mood when I did this score, but it got a three out of ten. Um, it's still. It'll suck you in. It'll suck you in.

Speaker 1: 13:30

I mean, this was a radio hit, right yeah, when I was a kid I remember this was like on the radio pretty regularly and I was like, all right, there, it is fabulous thunderbird, and they had some other hits too. Uh, like tough enough, was another big one right where. It's just like look how tough I am, and I guess that's, you know, a good thing. Maybe for guys, um, it's not even like toxic masculinity, like I don't even like that term, but like it's not even toxic, it's just sort of generic masculinity.

Speaker 2: 13:58

I think that's their genre of music generic masculinity there's nothing patently offensive about it you're just like well, what are you just trying to act?

Speaker 1: 14:09

like you think a man might act. It's like they're aliens coming here and they're like. I will act like the male forms of these, of these beings.

Speaker 2: 14:16

Yes, I am man, I like woman wrap it up. That's right, that's right oh goodness, all right, wonderful. Well, this last one really just really nails it. Um, and even just off title alone, I was ready to give it a score and it is where where are All the 12-Year-Olds by Ray Stevens?

Speaker 1: 14:39

Okay, ray Stevens became famous, like in the 70s, in particular for a somewhat serious song called Everything is Beautiful, and then for parody songs, one called Ahab the Arab, which I did not include, all this, and I say Arab because that's how he said it, sam Sure, more recently he's still making music, uh, including one called osama yo, mama, okay, and, and this one, where are all the 12 year olds? Which just on title alone, gets you really fearful of what this song may be about.

Speaker 1: 15:13

Okay, correct um, but it is the most get off my lawn, okay, pun pun intended song of maybe of all time, because he's talking about how 12 year olds should be out there mowing lawns, because it builds character and adults shouldn't be doing this work. You shouldn't be paying a lawn crew to mow your lawn, it should just be some 12 year old and this is kind of the downfall of society. It seems like he's implying here. Ray Stevens, by the way, I believe, performed at the Republican National Convention last year, so take that for what you will. Knowing all that now, sam, you must have hated this song.

Speaker 2: 15:57

I really, really did, and here was the progression of what happened with this song before I give you the score. I saw the title and I was like, oh, this is not going to be good. I'm already alarmed and scared about what's going to happen. You know like speaking of just trafficking and all kinds of stuff like this is going to be weird, Right right.

Speaker 2: 16:15

Especially knowing it was like presuming it was a male singer right the name ray stevens I was like, oh, this is not gonna be good. Yeah, then I started to listen to it and it didn't get that much better it was like a little bit better than I thought, but not that much better.

Speaker 2: 16:28

And then you know, he says a line don't be mad when a man who can't speak english replaces you and I that was. I was just like oh my god. And then it's not done yet though. Well, okay, maybe this song was written like back in the fifties. You know I had no idea who Ray Stevens was. I didn't know he was at the RNC last year. And I look at the year that was released and I was just like, oh my gosh, why?

Speaker 1: 16:51

Yeah, it was just. Was it this year or last year, Like it's a recent track? Yeah, this brand new album it could be. It could be on our new music mix in april.

Speaker 2: 17:04

I know, maybe it may come back there's. There's probably 11 other songs on that album I could pick. All right, oh, my goodness, okay. So this got a solid. Solid one out of ten. Yeah, I don't think I can score at zero, so okay, one out of ten excellent.

Speaker 1: 17:15

I thought it would be pretty low, okay, all right. Um, okay, hold off on your total. We're gonna give that. We're gonna give that. We're gonna give that at the end of the show, so that we're saying it at the same time. We don't want to spoil it, okay, by by telling everyone what your score is. Now we will pop the cassette out of the player here, flip it over to side b, and these are sam songs that he thought I would hate, and track one is one we've talked about in the show before. It is Brown Eyed.

Speaker 2: 17:43

Girl by Van Morrison. Yeah, this is. You know, if for you it was to put a country song, for me it was to put Brown Eyed Girl on this track. I kind of vividly remember how much you adore this song and just want it played all the time and at all the weddings. I hope it's at every single one of your children's weddings. You know You're just going to love it and treasure it for the rest of your life. So I had to open up my mix with one, hoping that I could get a good, solid foundation for the rest, because there are some ones that I gambled on here. So tell me, how much did you love, love this song?

Speaker 1: 18:18

I hate this song. At one time I liked this song, right, I think, when I first heard it when I was very young. I think I did like this song and then over time, it gets played All the time, all the time, right, like any oldies station in the country. I mean, it's probably playing on a station right now as we record this show, so it gets played a lot. And I think what really gets me is people's reaction to this song.

Speaker 1: 18:46

I feel like I'm the only person who's like, yeah, but we've heard this a million times, right, we could just move on. Everybody's like oh my God, I love this song and I'm like we're not sick of it. Huh, everybody's just right into it, especially for Van Morrison, who has, like I don't know, a thousand other songs, all of which are better than Brown Eyed Girl. And if you go see him live and I've never done it, but if you were to go see him he's going to play Brown Eyed Girl at some point, because that's what the people want Um, yeah, I hate it but you know, I'm going to give it a little Van Morrison bump here and uh give it a two.

Speaker 2: 19:24

Nice, he gets one point for being Van Morrison.

Speaker 1: 19:26

That's right. Just one extra point for being Van Morrison Um very nice. All right, your next pick and I was not familiar with this one, it is called woo boost by rusco yes, um, okay.

Speaker 2: 19:40

So I went through a pretty long and still kind of lingering dubstep phase in my life, and so this one is actually in my library. It was a song I actually listened to a whole lot. What cracked me up is that I never thought to check the lyrics, because there's really not lyrics to this song but apparently, apparently you had the lyrics up on your music player and then, screenshot it and send it to me.

Speaker 2: 20:02

And I just about died. So bonus points to me for getting that little bit of joy. I never, ever would have thought this song is a song with lyrics, and they're such in-depth lyrics too, you know. I mean, they really make you think. They make you think about the woo and about the boost, um. So I really hope that you enjoyed the song as thoroughly as I have over the years. But you tell me, what do you think?

Speaker 1: 20:26

so I'm just gonna dive into the lyrics, actually because I wrote some of them down here. Um, it is wub wub wub dub dub dub woo. Wub wub wub wub wub dub dub dub woo. Wub wub wub wub wub dub dub dub woo. And it goes on from there. Okay, it's pretty much a pattern from that point this song really make you think this song made me insane okay and I, I could just like 30 seconds into it I'm like, no, they're, they're not gonna change, are they like?

Speaker 1: 20:56

this is gonna be the song, like, how much more time do I have? It was, uh, I did. But here's the thing at a certain point now, it's like it really does kind of like numb your brain to where you're like, okay, maybe I can listen to this till the end. Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Um, it was killing my brain cells, but for that moment that it sucked me in, I gave it a two.

Speaker 2: 21:19

Okay, uh, but, I really did hate this song yeah I think this used to be on a running playlist of mine, um, which actually you know you mentioned like numbing your brain, like that could work for you, um, because this was at the time in my life when I wasn't running outside, I'd only do treadmill runs, and treadmill runs are just a special form of torture for for running, uh, especially if you're used to outdoor running, at some point you're just like I can't go back. So, yeah, you know, if you're looking to just numb yourself into a state of of catatonia, I think put this song on. You're gonna going to be great.

Speaker 1: 21:53

All right, this next one. Let's bring the room down a little bit. It's called Everybody Dies by Billie Eilish.

Speaker 2: 22:01

Yeah, so in another conversation I had with you many, many moons ago, I remember you telling me how much you love when Billie Eilish kind of mumble whispers into the microphone. That is just you consider it music, you consider it the peak form of music and you just couldn't get enough of it. So I thought I would treat you here to one where she's particularly good at that and just especially with a topic and a title of Everybody Dies, I thought this one would just go out of the park. You know just a real solid home run on this. So tell me how much did you enjoy this song?

Speaker 1: 22:38

I mean, what a bummer. Like just from the title and I think those are the first words she speaks is everybody dies, and just the way her voice is, and you're right, just kind of that low, sort of almost like that. You know, like when Lana Del Rey came out when both of them came out, I'll admit and this sounds very old man-ish, but I think Ray Stevens would agree with me I just didn't get it. Okay, right, I just didn't get it. I was like and they can both sing, and so I don't understand these diversions that they have into songs where it's like well, now I'm just going to kind of mumble in a deep register. What do you think of that? You know, and I'm like well, why don't you go back to the other stuff where you were actually singing? I love that. So, yeah, I gave this a three because Billie Eilish could sing, but I don't want to hear this song ever again because it really just kind of depressed me.

Speaker 2: 23:38

Yeah, no, she's extraordinarily talented. I think we all agree to that. But there are songs of hers where I'm just I kind of agree with you. It's not my favorite. It's not my favorite Billie Eilish song. I'm not playing this one again either.

Speaker 1: 23:52

All right, this next one one. I feel like you do play a lot.

Speaker 2: 23:55

Okay, it is f the system by system of a down yes, so this one was a little bit of a gamble, because I remember you told me that you grew up with a sister that listened to metal a lot um so I figured you were, like at least you know, acquainted with system of a down.

Speaker 2: 24:12

Obviously I brought them on on this show a whole lot because I love them as a band, um, but this one is a particularly screamy track from them. You know, there there are songs from theirs that are a little bit more melodic, and this one is just basically him screaming into the mic over and over to f the system, um, you know, which also could be cathartic these days, because you might be frustrated with everything that's going on. So I'm not sure. Like I said, this one's a bit of a gamble. So I'm curious how much did you dislike this track from them?

Speaker 1: 24:43

This was a five for me.

Speaker 2: 24:45

I actually love the guitar here.

Speaker 1: 24:47

You mentioned my sister who loves heavy metal. Now, granted, she's five years older than me, so we're not talking about System of a Down era. It'd be like Iron Maiden, right Like she's in her 50s.

Speaker 1: 25:00

Okay, like God. But yeah, so I love the guitar here. We've talked about System of a Down on the show before. I mean they're good musicians, but I think you nailed it with the screaming Like. That was the part where I was like, oh dear, no, please, please, stop doing that, please. And then he just keeps going at it. If you will, I just couldn't do it, yeah, so knocked it down, but again, like the guitar playing and the music behind it, like if I just dropped the lyrics.

Speaker 2: 25:34

I think I could listen to the song, so I gave it a five. Yeah, I'm with you. I can't do Screaming for very long either. This is not a track I listen to from them often. Usually. This was a solid skip for me on an album, so All right track.

Speaker 1: 25:46

11 on the worst mix ever. You picked Biddy Body, bid Boo by Bubbles.

Speaker 2: 25:53

Yes, you might have been familiar with this track. Uh, I don't know when the last time you watched super troopers was, but it was featured in the movie super troopers. Um, what's so funny is that my friends and I used to listen to music like this in our cars driving around. We definitely went through like a fast and furious, like you know, 16 year old phase of like windows down music cranked up, um, and it was all like electronic and trance and like german and and belgian techno and all that kind of stuff. So when we saw the movie super troopers, which is a fantastic film, um, and we heard this song being played in it, we added it. We found it online, you know, on napster or whatever, and added it to our repertoire of music that we would listen to. So I really loved it, um, and it just makes me laugh, especially, you know, thinking about the movie, but this is also just a nonsense electronic song. So I'm curious um what your thoughts were on this one. How did I do so?

Speaker 1: 26:47

I, okay, it's funny, I didn't place immediately, but this song started and I immediately recognized it and I was like, wait, I think I know this song and I couldn't place it. I didn't like this song, like the way it just goes on. But again, something triggered in me and I looked it up and you're right, it's featured in Super Troopers. I've seen Super Troopers probably a hundred times. I love that movie. So just the nostalgia of it, like gave, like gave, puts push this up to a five. Because I was like, okay, like I, I love that movie, I love something that's going to invoke that movie in my head and so yeah, but but like, just as a song, if this were to come on, I mean it's, it's way better than the Woo Boost song. Right, like it's just hands down, it's light years ahead of that, but again, not something I'm going to listen to all the way through. So yeah, just right down the middle, this was a five.

Speaker 2: 27:44

Yeah, I think this one at least feels different throughout the song, whereas WooBoost, to your point, feels like it was like four seconds of actual recorded material. Then he just looped for like three and a half minutes.

Speaker 1: 27:55

Yeah, every now and then I have the thought of like, could I go into GarageBand on my Mac and like fashion a song, publish it on Spotify and like get some plays right, get people to get into it? And I feel like WooBoost was something like that where it's just like get some plays right, get people to get into it. And I feel like WooBoost was something like that where it's just like all right, well, this is nonsense. It took me three minutes to create and, yeah, how many, how many downloads do I have, you know?

Speaker 1: 28:19

I love that All right. Let's wrap this up. You go with company by disaster piece. Yes, Okay.

Speaker 2: 28:28

So this is one where I literally started laughing when I remembered the soundtrack and I had to put this on here because so this is a soundtrack to a film, the horror film called it Follows, which is an excellent horror film. It's one of my favorites. A lot of the songs on the playlist are really, really good. I don't think this is necessarily one of them. This is one where I won't talk much about it because I'm actually curious about your reaction and I'll add on anything that I need to, but I just really hope you enjoyed every single note in this just masterpiece of a track to close out this mix. So let's hear it. How much of a horror was this to you?

Speaker 1: 29:11

You really closed strong here, because this was a one I hated. This song. There was kind of this weird dissonance throughout it. It was just unnerving to listen to. And when I saw that it's from the movie it Follows, I guess that tracks right with where it's coming from. But like I'm not a fan of horror movies either, so like, not only is it like okay, this genre of movies I don't really follow, but I was, I think I listened to it when I was like driving home and I was like, oh my, like I'm just if you had put this first and then Everybody Dies by Billie Eilish, I would have driven off the road Like that, like we wouldn't be recording right now.

Speaker 2: 29:58

I'm so glad I was careful with my ordering here.

Speaker 1: 30:00

Yeah, you did just a good enough job, but like this song. That was the part where it's like I don't want to listen to this ever again, more so than woo boost. Like it's like I don't want to hear it again, but like that one I'll listen to before this. This was an absolute one. You really nailed it on on the home stretch here thank you, yes, there is, if you're.

Speaker 2: 30:23

If you're going to listen to this listeners, I recommend going around minute one and playing for like 30 seconds because it sounds like someone just fell asleep on a synth keyboard and forgot to forgot to stop recording. And then the producer was like you nailed it, that's a wrap.

Speaker 1: 30:41

Yeah, wrap it up, let's, let's do it the term paper with nothing but the letter z right, because it just passed out on the keyboard Like that's what? Yes, it's brutal.

Speaker 2: 30:53

Oh man, it's really, it's rough.

Speaker 1: 30:55

All right. So, Sam, let's go back to side one. What was your final total score on that?

Speaker 2: 31:01

Yes. So out of a potential 60 points, which would have been just a perfect mix, you got a solid 19 points.

Speaker 1: 31:09

Well done, and Sam, out of a possible 60 points, you scored 18. So you had a worse mix than I did. So you win. You win this battle of worst mix ever. You know, folks a lot of times go it out because I'm sure there are people and you can write to us at super awesome mix and let us know, go ahead and defend one of these songs. We'd love to hear that.

Speaker 1: 31:37

But, also tell us like hey, I've been listening to the show for years. You too would hate this song. Or Matt would hate this one Sam would love. We would love to hear about that.

Speaker 2: 31:48

Absolutely would hate this one. Sam would look we, we would love to hear about that absolutely.

Speaker 2: 31:50

Yeah, hit us up with uh, with your picks, um, and I. You know I really enjoyed this and I hope you all did too. I think we should bring this back every so often because it's a. It is a particular kind of um challenge to not figure out, or rather to figure out what songs you are not going to like, um, and it's especially fun if they're songs that you yourself like, because it just feels even funnier to extend to someone else.

Speaker 1: 32:10

That's right. That's right, knowing that they will not like it. So, yeah, definitely that. That's definitely a fun one, um. So we're going to get to work on more serious mixes mixes we both enjoy, um, and we'll be back next week with a new one of those. So, for sam, this is matt, and we'll be back next week with a new one of those. So, for Sam, this is Matt, and we'll see you then.
