She's definitely got a podcast. You want to listen to it, so we'll hear all about it and where she's going with it. Kelly, why don't you go and introduce yourself. Hi, thank you so much for that amazing intro. My name is Kelly. I have a podcast called On the Record with Kelly and I talk about music. I interview musicians and music fans and just kind of talk about what's new, music history, concert recaps, and basically anything that people who like music would want to hear. So, if you've always been into music here ever since you were low kid. Yeah, I really have. I was thinking back, like where did I start really liking music? And I think it was ever since I was little, you know, just being introduced to playing music.

1:07 I played the clarinet when I was little, the keyboard. My grandpa was in a barbershop quartet, which was kind of fun, just to be around that type of environment where there's you know, those creative juices flowing. So yeah, I think it's just kind of like been ingrained in me, right, and. That's starting out with that kind of stuff. You're probably pretty diverse in the kind of music you like. No, definitely, I love pretty much everything classic rock, country, you know, pretty much everything cool. Hey, do you know what we're going to celebrate today? Yes, we are celebrating National Angel Food Cake Day. Angel food Cake, Angel food cake.

1:48 The best darn thing, ken mad on my birthday, made no mistake Angel for angels case, the best start thing, Mamma. That's right, it is Angel food Cake Day. Those light, fluffy, hairy cakes. Now they got to mean that name because they believe that's what angels would eat. That's gotten cute. They were actually created in the United States in the mid eighteen hundreds. No one gets credit for making them out. Now they're low on carve, so it's got that going. So that's been pretty good. They're pretty simple, just beaten egg whites, flour, sugar, no butter. Now they're baked in that pan that has the hole in the center, you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, and that have to be baked that way. See, if you don't cook them in that pan with the hole in the center. You just put them on a regular pan. All you're gonna get is a big Angel food cookie. They won't rise if they're not in that pan with the hole in the middle. Are you a baker?

2:44 Uh? Yeah, Actually I want to start making those now. No no, no, no, it has an actual day. Well. The fun thing about angel food cakes too, because you can do I mean, you can just put whatever you want on them. I mean, so you can't. Really, I can't say you don't like angel food cake. That's your fault. You topped it wrong exactly. Oh man, So are you into rocker guys? Haven't mett? I guess you don't have to be rockers. They could be anybody. Do you like drummers? Uh? Yeah, I haven't. You know, I haven't met too many drummers in my life, which is funny because I feel like I've been to a decent amount of concerts. But I'm sure they're wonderful people. Well I hope so too, because today is National Hug a Drummer Day. Wow.

3:25 So if you're at a club or something, you might ask them before you just walk up and hug them. Though. That's a good idea, especially if they're like the sweaty rocker guy. So do you play any other instruments than when you were a kid. I do have a guitar. Yeah, I've been learning and it's a Fender, and yeah I love the guitar. Cool, all right, less, he's going on entertainment. On October tenth, let's back to your twenty nineteen, the number one album was Hollywood's Bleeding by Post Malone. The number one song was by Lizzo. Truth hurts. Right, sir, I got them right. Don't text me, tell us play the moth face. That's friend, Send me down on the san Ship, shall hold brack get.

4:08 You out of my hell fresh photo with the ball. Lighting No man on the Minnesota Mighty Games. True, you're a Lizzo fan. I am a Lizzo fan. Actually, interesting about that song. It was the longest running Billboard Hot one hundred chart topper ever by a solo female rapper. Well that's pretty impressive. And it was actually. Inspired by a heartbreaking voicemail from a guy. Lizzo was seen a voicemail that's dumpling. That means that guy's a guy's gonna break up. Yeah, I know, guy's going to use a voicemail and breakup for Yeah, he's no good for you, I know, but she made it work for her. Yeah, she's definitely on top on that situation, all right. Marshmallow and Kane Brown, they had the number one country song with one Thing Right.

4:56 It's in all the wrong Things life and every kind of lost that you came from. Ude, I got wine thing right. Been the count of guy girls, Mama's don't lie run away with the wrong crowd. On the wrong nights because I've been wrong. About a million times. Lude, I got wine thing right. Now, I'm serious. That's country. So are you a reader? I do? I like to read? Uh? Do you like to read? Yeah? I do. What's your favorite book? I like the Lee Child's books. You know the reader books. Read your books? Oh? Yeah, those are good.

5:37 Well, this is October tenth, so I'm twenty nineteen. I think people were ready for Halloween because Stephen King had the number of book with the Institute. Did you ever see the movie Maleficent Malice? I did? I did? Well here? How do you say that? Okay, Maleficent Mister Evil, the sequel it came out. It was number one today in this one. Maleficent and her Goddaughter are they questioned, their family ties up buying them, and then they're being pulled in different directions by impending nuptials and unexplained allies. And then a new dark force comes into the picture. Did you see that one? No, I didn't see that one, Angelina, Joe Lee el Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer. So well, we know you like rock music. This was way before your time. Nineteen seventy seven, Aerosmith, they were playing a concert in Philadelphia. Well, someone throw an M eight on stage. Then when it exploded, it hurt Stephen Tyler as cornea and it her guitarist Joe Perry's hand, So the concert was over. They had to be taken to the hospital and treated all that. So the next year, just to show that there were no hard feelings stories the people of Philadelphia, Aerosmith, they came back and played again.

6:39 In that concert. Steve fen Tyler, he got hit in the head with a beer bottle. Oh my gosh, geez. What was your first concert? First concert was Backstreet Boys. I was in the eighth grade. What was your first concert? My first concert I think was Holland Oates. That's probably about in eighth grade. That's a good one. So, I mean, you can definitely tell the genre or the age gap there. You know. I love that though, But it's not like either one of us said like Aerosmith or def Leppard or something. I know that would have been really cool. Alright, And you want to see what happened in the history on the world in October the tenth, Yes, I do. Seventeen eighty, the deadliest hurricane everybody hit the Atlantic Ocean happened.

7:22 It was called the Great Hurricane in seventeen eighty. Remember they didn't name them yet. So it hit Barbados with windspeeds over two and a miles an hour. Then it told them he destroyed Barbados. Then it took out all those other islands around it, Grenada, Saint Vincen, Saint Lucilla, all those kind of moves. Yeah, and then when it came up and it was heading for the United States, then it veered right veared into the ocean. Yeah. I never did make manfall in the United States, which is kind of good on that part. But this is how destructive was in those ill little islands. Remember this is the seventeen hundred, so when the huge population still killed twenty seven thousand people. WHOA, wow, that's a lot. Eighteen forty five the US Naval Academy. Yeah, it was founded out there in Annapolis, Maryland. Do you like shooting pool? Yeah? Always fun.

8:03 In the eighteen hundreds, billiard balls they were made from ivory from elephants tusks, so they were really expensive and kind of hard to get on. In eighteen sixty five, up in all been in New York, this guy John Hyatt, he solved that problem. He took this band new invention called plastic. Now he modified it into what's called celluloid. Now, if you looked at those billiard balls and you felt him, you cannot tell the difference between the celluloid and the ivory balls. They became really popular all around. Then they figured out there was a difference between those balls the celluloid balls. Yeah, they were flammable. He hit them just right, they'd actually blow up. I know now. I think it would make pool a little more exciting to myself with the balls. If you're wonder and today pool balls they're made out of a penelic reson or something like that.

8:46 Okay, we're sife. In eighteen eighty six, Griswold Lorillard. He was a rebel. Yep. He wore a short black dinner jacket to a ball in Tuxedo, New York. So when he walked in, everybody thought, what a goofball. Nobody had ever seen anything so ridiculous in their entire life. Now, as people watched him throughout the ball, he would talk and dance with the ladies and he just had a great time. By the end of the night, everybody thought that that jacket was pretty cool. So tuxedos, they've been worn to fancy events ever since then. It's cool now, this would have been embarrassing. In nineteen fifty seven, President of the United States Eisenhower, he had to apologize to the finance Minister of Ghana. See the finance Minister of Ghana. He was visiting the United States on official business. He was.

9:26 Refused service of a restaurant in Dover, Delaware. Yeah, because he was black. That wouldn't be fun to have to sorry about that, dude. Yeah. Nineteen seventy three, US Vice President Sparrow Wagne he had to resign. Now everybody thinks it was because of Whitewater or Watergate and all that kind of stuff. No, he was under investigation for tax fraud. Also, I just that thing. That's how Gerald Ford replaced him. Seventeen, nineteen seventy eight Congress they approved the silver Dollar with Susan B. Anthony on it, you know, the lady who was really big on trying to get women the right to vote and all that kind of sting. Ye. Yes, So when it came now, they put it on there and what didn't go over so good? Everybody's got that replica of Susan B. Anthony just looked like a really ugly Benjamin Franklin.

10:07 I had to look it up. I had to google it, and yeah, I feel like they could have done her a little bit better. Oh yeah, they. Didn't do any props at all, you know. Okay, so now got that awesome podcast out now, but your experience, you've been doing podcasting for a while. Yeah. I started podcasting in twenty twenty with two of my friends and three girls one pod, and then I started my own podcast. It was called Imperfectly Purposed And now I have on the record with Kelly, so just kind of navigating the whole podcast world. Well, that's good. Where do you see it going? What do you want to do? I mean, would you like to concentrate on concerts or artists or just all the whole music industry all together.

10:50 Yeah, definitely the whole music industry altogether. I really liked doing interviews, and I really like having the solo episodes. As I'm sure you know too, it's sometimes it's to just be able to like recap what's going on in the music industry. There's so much every single day there's something new going on, so I feel like it's always exciting. Yeah, and there's always definitely there's always something to talk about in the music industry, right because we're kind of laughing. I mean, you have bad Bunny going on. And then I don't remember, there was a bus crass or some band I don't know here in Colorado not too long ago. I don't think they're a huge band, but they were on the radio. Oh I don't know if I heard about that. So yeah, Okay, your dream guest, who is it?

11:31 Dream Guests? Oh, that's a good one. I'll have to get back to you on that. I feel like I have the list is too longer right now. Now, remember Taylor, she's going to go on her fiances so you can take her out right off the bat. Yeah, oh, mark that down. Plus it's kind of like, yeah, ever, okay, we see who was born on October the tenth. Yes, joke joke showed just shibb day. He left this shiver. We simple just shibts day. And you don't do. You have those girlfriends who are just kind of klutzy.

12:11 You know they're gonna trip and stumble and bump themselves all the time. It's me, how was that? You? Well, you would have got along just right with Earl Dixon. See he was born in Grandview, Tennessee, in eighteen ninety two. Now, Earl's wife, Josephine, she was a real klutz around the house. I mean she was constantly hurting herself so much so that by nineteen twenty Earl he ended up inventing the band aid. Yeah he was. Yeah, they before then, all they had for first daid was basically cotton cotton swabs and tape that really didn't stick. And he couldn't do that for Josephine anymore, so he invented the band aid. Wow, I had no idea. I did not know that. Now, Josephine klutzingess made those two a lot of money.

12:53 Love that now, Earl. He died night when he was only sixty eight years old. Josephine, she actually outlived him, all right. The first of American theater Helen Hayes. She was born in Washington, DC in nineteen ninety. Now, she was the first actress, well, the first woman to win the Oscar Emmy and Grammy and the Emmy? Did I say that? The egot basically? Yeah? So yeah, she was a second person overall. Some composer was the first one. But yeah, she got that. Are you into like theater and stuff like that too? Yeah, that's amazing. I didn't know that about Helen Hayes. We'll get this. When she won her first Oscars in nineteen thirty one, she didn't win again. She won her second Oscar nineteen seventy. Really that was for the movie Airport. Wow. It's never give up on your dreams.

She was married Ellen, Yeah, she was married once for thirty years and they had two children when they divorced. She died nineteen ninety three, at ninety two years old from heart failure. Okay, Now everybody, I think you're gonna agree with me. Everybody, this is a rock star. My life. All of guys. See he start only stuck brow he sound living, had us sad.

14:15 Now this is not a rock star. They very damns. He's selling etro. Men wanted to say, then will come in when you will to swing? What will they say about me when he comes out? Still? So do you concur was I right? Yeah, I'd say van Halen's a little bit more rock right out. David Lee rock seventy one today. He's born in Bloomington, Indiana, in nineteen fifty four. Of course, he was the lead singer for Van Halen from nineteen seventy four to nineteen eighty five. Now you know how he got the lead singing gig for van Halen. I don't he.

14:55 His dad had some money and so David had a whole bunch of sound equipment. So the van Halen brothers they said, well, he said, I'll bring that if you guys will hire me. So they made him the lead singer just because they didn't have to buy a rent any of their sound equipment. Wow, right place, right time, right money. It worked out good because with van Halen with David selling Singing lad they sold fifty seven million records. Sammy Hagar they only sold twenty seven million. WHOA, that's very interesting, David. He's only six solo albums now. Van Halen they screwed him over a few times though. After they got after they broke up, they would get him and let's say, hey, we're getting back together and make all the press conferences and all that, and then they'd back out the last second. They did that a couple of times to him. Now, David, he did retire in twenty twenty one, but I think it was right when Eddie died and all that kind of stuff, and he was like, I'm done, they're not bringing back and all that. So he said this year he came back. He goes, this is my second retirement.

15:45 So he actually toured this summer. That's awesome. Say he was a mean you. T who is man chum danos Yay? That was thirteen year old Tanya Tucker and her first hit song, Delta Dawn.
