Going through Rolling Stone Magazine listening to the 500th greatest album.

I'm in Chicago this weekend at Zany's, guys. Come one, come all. We were in Atlanta last weekend, and it was magnificent. Thank you to everybody who came out. Follow me on Instagram, on social media.

I'm having a great time. Now that comedy is being taken away by Sirius for the road dog thing. You guys seen about that? Raw dog, it's called a road dog. We have Patreon. patreon.com/500podcasts.

It's a goodie, man. Life is good right now. We're all getting through this little journey. We are hitting a record at the time that...

I don't know how to say it. Sometimes it just comes in and you're like, man, I know what this guy is going through on this record. What we did today was I gave you two. I gave you two podcasts in one. I got one of my best friends, Big Jay Oakerson, because I just want to have a laugh and talk about one of his favorite records. I've seen this with Roger Waters. I've seen Comfortably Numb sung by David Gilmore with Big Jay.

And I have one of the best rock drummers in the world, Mike Portnoy, Dream Theater, 4,000 other bands. Making a new record, taking a break from the hotel, rest session to come and talk about his favorite record of all time. Two for the price of one, guys. Sometimes you get your best friend and you get your new best friend to come on.
