SHOW NOTES:
- Bro-Country is a tricky term because no one self-identifies as a fan. So there's a lot of judgment baked into the word. It's not exactly a slur but it's not real descriptive. Florida Georgia Line is a “Country music act” for example that fits the bill but we doubt if you asked them they'd say Bro-Country is their genre. Who knows, maybe they would.
- Morgan Wallen broke covid quarantine and got (temporarily) canceled from hosting Saturday Night Live, and then later got drunk and shouted some racial slurs which got him canceled in general.
- Our mouths start to hurt from just saying the words Sour Patch Kids Cereal. Sour Patch Kids Ice Cream is a little less painful.
- Piggly-Wiggly was, in fact, the first modern grocery store with checkout stands, individually price-marked items and shopping carts.
- In the episode, we reveal our befuddlement with the correct pronunciation of “shaman”. According to Cambridge Dictionary, in the UK it rhymes with “layman” and in the US it rhymes with “ramen”.
- Seagal movies that we discuss include Under Siege, Under Siege 2: Dark Territory, Exit Wounds (co-starring DMX) and On Deadly Ground (here’s the environmentalist sermon at the end of it).
- Here’s Seagal with Valdimir Putin. Here he is giving a samurai sword to Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. Here’s him and Sheriff Joe Arapaio (we’re not sure if this is before or after they allegedly killed a puppy with a tank while shooting Steven Seagal: Lawman).
- The full name of Seagal’s conspiracy thriller novel is The Way of the Shadow Wolves: The Deep State and the Highjacking of America. His album is called Songs from the Crystal Cave.
- Here’s footage of Seagal training with MMA guys.
- Pete tells a few stories about Willits, California (which is in beautiful Mendocino County).
