G'day, how are you going? Welcome to Brutalosophy and my name is Tech. Now this is where I normally acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands that I live and work on, but let's let Qantas do this. Qantas Link would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the airport's land to watch out for people with high RSS to elders, past, present and emerging. So today I'm going to take a look at a comparison between two Aussie lace-up boots. The Thomas George collection Frio and the RM Williams Riccabee boot. So today I'm comparing two Australian lace-up boots in a service boot kind of style derby boot design. The first one is a Thomas George collection service boot called the Frio in a blue suede from Charles Havestead. And the second one is in a black newbuck made by RM Williams. And it's, I'm not sure you call this a service boot. It has a work boot I think style plain toe toe and the toe box itself is kind of a little bit more rounded and more like a work boot than a service boot. So you might be surprised to learn that RM Williams actually makes lace-up boots because they're famous for obviously their Chelsea boots being the craftsmen and other Chelsea boots in their range. But they do make a number of lace-up boots. Most of them are designed for work in the yard on sheep and cattle stations and so on. But they can obviously also be used quite casually in city situations. Apart from this, they also make them the Riccabee and other models in different leathers and full grain smooth leathers and so on. As for the Thomas George collection, they're a newish boot company started in 2020. And these are made in Vietnam, whereas the RM Williams are made in Australia. But they are designed in Melbourne using an old World War II Australian soldiers last, which they use to manufacture these new boots. So let me start by talking about the RM Williams Riccabee boot. No need to introduce RM Williams as a brand obviously, but if you want to know more, go check out my review on the craftsmen and for the history of the RM Williams company, as well as to take a look at the craftsmen. So this is their lace-up boot. It's starting to be quite rare because they're only producing them every so often for different seasons. I think currently on the website as we film, the only model that's left is in a cognac suede. And this black new buck leather is not available at the moment, but they do cycle them through, whether that means it's difficult for them to get the leather in this COVID supply chain world or otherwise. They haven't gone away. It's still one of these staples. Let's go through this boot. So I've already reviewed this boot and you can have a look up there. So I'll only go through it briefly. It's a plain toe. I suppose you would call it a service boot, but I think this might verge on a work boot type of shape because it has a higher profile rounded toe, not as sleek as maybe you'd expect in some service boots. It's got a V700 style rubber sole, a rubber outsole. You'll see that it does not say vibram or vibram, but I'm almost certain that this is made by Vibram for RM Williams. RM Williams are a big enough company that they can ask Vibram to manufacture outsole for them and put their own brand on them. As I said, this is in a new buck leather. So it's really nice and soft leather, quite nappy. The most famous new buck leather I think you'll find is Timberland six inch yellow boot. It has one, two, three, four, five, six, seven brass eyelets, no speed hooks. And it's a little difficult to get on and off unless you get really long laces because you need to get that quite wide open because the last is actually quite a sleek last. So the Derby style opening needs to be pushed right open. It's a fully lined boot, as you can see. It's an un-gusseted tongue, but surprisingly for me, it doesn't move. I think because it's got this little loop where you pass the laces through. And if you have an un-gusseted tongue, I've no idea why bootmakers don't put that in. There's a little cloth pull tab with the usual Made in Australia RM Williams. On the Chelsea boots, you find the address of the headquarters at Five Percy Street in an Adelaide suburb. This size is a 7G. Now, my normal size in RM Williams Chelsea boots is an 8G. That's UK 8. And that's actually about half a size bigger than my true size. But I find these, a 7G, UK 7, that is actually fitting me quite well. A little bit tight in the toe, but otherwise the right length and certainly the right width across the ball of the feet. It has, as I said, a rubber outsole, but the traditional cork and leather combination in the mid and insole and a fiberglass shank.  And also, it's very useful for getting through airports. Now, taking a look at the Thomas George collection service boot, and again, I've already done a review in full, so you can see that up there. So again, I'm not going to run through it in any great detail. But this one is made in Vietnam. Thomas George collection basically started in 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, unfortunately. And for them, they tried to find an Australian boot factory, couldn't find one for the price that they were trying to get these made in, and then eventually partnered with a Japanese company that had a factory in Vietnam. So the Japanese company apparently makes really high quality shoes, and therefore the Vietnam factory was tooled up to make quality boots. You can see it's a stitch down design, double stitching. I had a comment on my Instagram when I showed these. Somebody said that stitching was horrible. I'm not entirely sure why. It looks fairly even to me. Maybe he just didn't like the white contrast stitching on the blue. It stitched right through to the outsole, through the midsole. Inside the boot is the normal, again, traditional cork and leather combination. So it molds to the shape of your feet. It's a little thin. If you look at this boot, there's the leather and then there's a midsole, quite a thin midsole through which the uppers are sewn in the front of the of the boot. And then the rear of the boot is nailed and glued on to provide a sleeker sort of shape down the side. It's in dark blue CFS stead suede, five brass eyelets and two speed hooks, providing a little bit easier lacing up. As you can see, the shape is that of a service boot. And apparently this is designed on World War Two Australian service boots. So how do they compare? Firstly, aesthetics. The shape of the toe is quite different. The Thomas George collection is a lot more sleek than this sort of rounded toe box shape of the RM Williams. Not forgetting this, I think, was intended originally as a work boot. And this is, despite it being service boot based, is more of a fashionable casual boot. Obviously the materials are different. In terms of weight, they're roughly the same weight. This one is a stitched down collection. So theoretically a little bit more water resistant than a Goodyear welt. Although many Goodyear welt purists will say this is much more water resistant because there are no stitch holes that go all the way through to the outsole from within the vent. Whereas these stitched down stitches go all the way through from the top of the turned out vent to the bottom of the outsole. But stitched down loyalists will say that's fine because the water will roll off the turned up flared up bit anyway. And it's not going to get inside the boot. In terms of sizing, this is a UK seven and a half boot. So that's my true to size. That's equal to a US eight and a half. This is a UK seven boot. And that's what I normally wear because that's equivalent to a US eight size. But these are ever so slightly tighter than these. You'd expect that. But not so much in the length, funnily enough. It's in the width, even though, I was going to say, even though the width looks the same, but they might be the same at the ball of the feet of the feet. But you can see that at the toe, this one starts to get into an almond shape. In terms of the size, don't forget this is a seven and a half and this is an eight. In terms of sizing, pretty similar. I think you'll find, agree? In terms of comfort, I think the RM Williams is a touch more comfortable. It has this thick rubber Vibram-like, V700-like sole. So it's very grippy and comfortable. I think it has a thicker layer of cork in the filler because I can feel that there's more shock absorption on the ball of the feet. The heel grips a little bit more snug than on the Thomas George collection. In terms of comfort in the toe, this has a structured toe. So it leaves enough room not to squash down onto your toes. This is an unstructured toe, quite soft. And as a result of that and the soft lined suede from Charles F. Stead, it's really beautiful on foot. But underfoot, I think this is a little bit thinner because I can feel when I'm walking pretty much every stone and piece of gravel that I step on. Whereas with these, I'm standing on rubber and that protects me from all the stones and so on. So in summary, there are two very similar boots. In terms of price and value, the RM Williams boot is about $650, nearly $700, Australian dollars. The Thomas George collection is under $400 Australian dollars and they do go on sale from time to time, whereas I found it very difficult to find RM Williams on sale. So in terms of value, not forgetting that this is an Australian tan new buck and this is a Charles F. Stead tan in the UK suede, the value is pretty good reflected in those prices. I think possibly maybe there may be a premium put in the name RM Williams in the pricing of this boot. In terms of the wear, I think both wear reasonably well. This one's slightly less comfortable than this one. The RM Williams has a thick outsole, whereas this is quite a thin, sleek design and therefore not as comfortable underfoot. In terms of style, both are really stylish. You can wear them in casual terms.  But that's up to you. So guys, I hope you like that review. It's very rare to find an Australian lace-up boot because Australian boot companies usually make Chelsea work boots or fairly stylish, sleek Chelsea riding boots. I like both of them and I hope you like them. I'll put links to where you can get them below. They're not affiliate links. And if you did like this video, don't forget to click on like.

Broom will will pull your vote from the roll call Um, I forgot you were refusing yourself from this. So we'll strike that Um, mr. Salibi. Yes And mr. Wolff. Yes Motion passes We will now move on to the regular agenda staff please present the first case sure The first case is 22 22 main street This project is In the north main corridor overlay The proposal is for mixed use development on the site of the gym The former gym more catalytic dealership between main street and sumter street And between franklin and scott the development proposes 248 residential units and a few live work units The development utilizes primarily structured parking and some surface parking The project was before the commission for an informational presentation in may And came before the commission last month with a request for certificate of design approval The commission followed the staff recommendation to defer the case primarily So that the sumter street parking garage frontage could be further developed towards pedestrian orientation A number of other of other items were noted in the motion Staff will review the items listed in the ddrc motion from the august 12 hearing And will review the revisions that were made to address the motion So to address the sumter street garage That was part of the ddrc motion This photograph is the sumter street elevation from the august from the august hearing And the app the applicant has responded by articulating the architecture of the garage frontage To better reflect the architecture of the building by using brick at the base Formed and painted concrete and parapets to provide a more consistent material palette The horizontality of the garage structure is broken into vertical bays of similar proportions to the residential frontage Along the street The bays of the garage have spaces that alternate between hardscape with low retaining walls and canopies that may be used for events And landscaping to soften and screen the garage Ensuring these spaces are activated and used to positively engage the pedestrian realm Will need to be considered and managed moving forward In the ddrc motion from august was that the brick be expanded on the main street facade bays as recommended in the staff mark up And so you can see the revised elevation at the bottom Where the applicant has revised the elevations to expand the brick as requested And then this is this is also where the the building turns Towards the parking lot off of main street and they've also expanded the brick on this parking lot side elevation And then this just shows a perspective of that same the change between the august Design and then the revised elevations or perspectives The ddrc motion from august asked that a complete elevation for the for scott street be provided The applicant provided the elevation as requested Staff recommends bringing the brick up to the second floor as was done on the main street elevation in the areas outlined in red The ddrc motion from august asked that fenestration calculations for the street facing elevations be provided Those were provided The fenestration calculations for main street ground floor is 62 for franklin street 51 And because the garage frontage on sumter street there is not There is not fenestration except for on the residential portion So the applicant is recommending mitigating this by providing articulation in the form of canopies and hardscape areas for art and event space Along with murals that add interest when the space is not being utilized for events More details should be provided as they are developed to include lighting for the event space And for the murals as well as any fixed site furnishings Windows and detail window details and sections and material details and cut sheets should be provided. That was part of the august motion In your packet, you should have seen the The window sections and details The windows and brick are typical with a three to four inch relief The brick in the lap siding has the least relief with the windows and panel siding providing slightly more While these sections do not provide a great deal of relief and shadow The building is broken up into recessed bays and projections. So there are not great expanses of flat surfaces Other elements help to articulate the facade Such as the siding and trim details brick detailing at the material transitions As well as balconies and canopies And then also in the ddrc motion from august was that roof mounted utility equipment Screening be provided if applicable And as the applicant testified in the august hearing there will not be Um roof mounted utility equipment visible from the street And this is just um these are some more um street level perspectives renderings of the The sumptuous street event spaces that are proposed Along the garage frontage Also on the august motion was that more information about the main street entrances be provided Both of the storefront spaces on main street the leasing office and the tenant amenity space will have entrances and access to the public sidewalk On main street as indicated on the south side level one floor plan And then also in the august motion was that retaining wall sections be provided to better understand how the grade change will affect the pedestrian realm The north side level one plan and the elevations help to tell the story of how grade changes will be handled at the sidewalk And the residential stoops The retaining walls should not exceed 30 inches and should be finished with break to match the building Details should be reviewed and approved by staff And then also not nested not part of the motion from august that some of the discussion items that were brought up by commissioners were that the um That there was some concern about the the stoops as you can see in the upper Rendering being close together with the the little gap in between So they have revised the design for these a one units to Not have the two little stoops right next to each other And then also part of the discussion in august was about providing contextual Perspective showing the streetscape and what the development Would look like in context. And so this is the sumptuous street uh perspective That was looking um north and then this is looking south at the corner of franklin So the staff recommendation is to approve the request with the details to be deferred to staff Including but not limited to the design and activation of the sumptuous street facade canopies murals site furnishings lighting and landscaping and the design and placement of retaining walls And I believe the applicant is joining us via zoom Because he is out of state And was gonna have to call Is there anybody Well, it's it's steve melton, but I think I saw the architect's name which is andrew I think yep Yeah, you've got uh, Dave kelly and andrew moir with pool and pool architecture here I don't know if steve. I was just looking to see if he was in The meeting room, but I haven't seen him yet But we're happy to help answer any questions as a part of what came about Is there um anything to be presented today to the group?  That's needed We were what we had provided was what was just presented there in the slideshow with the additional perspectives and renderings We had put all that together at the request of um of of steve and That's that was our package Any questions or follow-up? I have a question about the the murals on something street Yes, is that a requirement? Um, it's it's certainly not a requirement. Um, it's it's a uh, street facade treatment that we've utilized in some other urban infill areas as a opportunity to uh connect with both the community and and offering up those um uh, those pedestrian walkway and and um Vendor points, um, we've we've seen that successfully integrated with reaching out the local community artists that are uh, willing to come in and Put their murals up in an effort to To make a connection So it was an idea that we had presented to uh to better connect to the community For the parking deck Mr. Vroom to clarify also staff had recommended that as well as something that could help to Make the facade more interesting particularly when there was not activities going on Just because it's a blank wall and we've done that on other projects So that was a recommendation from staff as well All right, I understand. Thank you. Let me ask staff just do we want to swear in the individual who just spoke on behalf of the project Even though yes, thank you. Yeah, we probably should do that So, uh, sir, whoever just presented if you could please state your name one more time And did you swear to tell the truth and this proceedings and what you've set up to this point? Absolutely. Um, my name is uh, david kelly ke l l e y with pool and pool architecture And yes, I agree to those conditions I did feel like there were a lot of the items addressed from um all of our previous two meetings with them So I I'm feeling pretty good about this. Is anybody have any other questions or concerns with commissioners All right We encourage those that would like to communicate via email to begin sending in letters and emails to coc board meeting at columbia sc.gov Or on the web At public input dot com slash coc ddrc-sep 2021 For those wanting to leave a voicemail or speak live Call<PHONE_NUMBER> When prompted, please enter the meeting code 4-225 Then press star two to begin leaving the voicemail if you would like to speak live press star three We will hear comments from anyone here who was in person Any comments received in writing?

Madam Chairperson and members of the ddrc. This is steve middleton. I just wanted to let you know that I am calling in on The phone um got some technological challenges with my current location So I just did want you to know that i'm here in case you have any questions There any other comments received staff Are we doing a delay responsive? I do not have any callers on the line. Okay Any I don't think I don't think we have any follow-up questions at this point So I think we can move to a motion if somebody would like to make one I make a motion to grant a certificate of design approval to 22 22 main street With the following details deferred to staff including the not limited to The design and activation of the sumptuous street facade canopies murals site finishing furnishings Lighting and landscaping and design and placement of retaining walls. We have a second second Mr. Baker Yeah, mr. broom. Yes Miss jaco Yes, mr. Salibi Yes, and mr. Wolff. Yes the motion passes All right move to the next case on the agenda So our next case is on the historic portion of the agenda. This is 1008 lauren street This house is a classic clabbered two-story four square structure with a hip roof Most likely built somewhere between the 1920s and 1930s based upon the architecture It features an off-center entry with the single door side lights covered by a small gable roof Five over one paired wood windows on the front and a five over one Would single window configuration on the sides The house was cited for paint violations in april 2021 And the owner subsequently hired a contractor to address the problems The owner would like to apply vinyl to the sides of the house as the contractor is having trouble removing the old Paint from the siding and getting new paint to adhere Like most old houses it has been painted over many times and at a certain point It becomes necessary to remove layers of paint to get down to a smooth finish to get paint to adhere The company doing the work reports trying sandblasting which we absolutely would not recommend on historic buildings Since it can damage the wood And using a metal grinder to remove the paint, but this has not been successful for them There are however alternative methods of removing paint that are recommended By preservation specialists who deal with these issues on a regular basis The neighborhood as a whole and many homes on the street are from the same or similar eras as this one and they're wood sided Many of them they all require regular maintenance in order to keep the building envelope intact and their materials in good condition Given that these types of houses and their materials are defining features of the neighborhood The neighborhood wish their guidelines to specifically prohibit applying vinyl over wood siding which the guidelines do Vinyl not only covers original siding it obscures or completely engulfs trim and details At the site or it would on the sides of the house, which is another reason it is not recommended It has a different profile as well from wood siding So looking at precedent in the neighborhood staff is research files in the university hill architectural conservation district for like requests Emotions and out of dozens of requests for repair or maintenance has found no cases Where vinyl siding or vinyl products have been approved for either new construction or exterior repairs based upon the guidelines Um staff finds therefore that the proposal to cover wood siding with vinyl siding at 1008 Lawrence street does not meet the university hill architectural conservation district guidelines section 8 item 6 and recommends denial of the proposal I believe we have Some folks here to speak on this Okay So whoever who gets come up whoever's going to speak on behalf All right So when you get up there if you can State your name and do you swear to tell the truth in these proceedings? Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. My name is Max Manila. I'm the owner of the home And I swear to tell the whole truth and nothing about the truth to help me gosh. I don't know if that was part of it also Just for this is the first time I've ever done this so I apologize and If y'all could sort of help me through it, I would appreciate it just because I've never done this before Sure, just let you know just reinforce it. It is 10 minutes.  I don't think I have enough stuff to make 10 minutes, but Anyway, thank you for having me here This as this name. He said this started and when we recited in april 2001 To fix the exterior of the house which we knew had to be done. Um, we were planning to do it earlier But because of covet and pandemic, we were kind of hurting. I'm a small business owner So it was kind of rough time kind of waited I got some extra money for my officer retention bonus for the national guard. So I thought Hey, I want permanent solution to this and I wanted to get vinyl I honestly thought Would my own fault for not checking into it that because there are several houses on the street I actually own a house across the street. That is a vinyl house. So I thought it would be okay Um, so anyway, we got a contractor and He said everything was fine. I trusted him We started to vinyl the house to which we were given a stop order because like it is against the rules of the neighborhood, which I Sadly found out then I did work with miss amy. We came up with a plan We were actually going to final the rear end of the house because it wasn't seen from the neighborhood and repaint The other three sides which we did and I thought that that was going to be a great plan, but the problem was Pretty soon after it started to peel off as you saw from those pictures And Sorry, I sort of lost where I was going here the the contractor Did sand treat using oil based primer oil based paint for the house Um, it was a reputable contractor Uh, they really did a I've watched them do the work and they did a thing. It's already it's already peeling off The reason why I would really hope for um your consideration To let me vinyl the houses I really would like a permanent solution I understand that it is a historic district and it is important to preserve the neighborhood Um I would really like a permanent solution I do I did bring some pictures comparing the Rear side of the house that was vinyl compared to the paint And I'll give that to y'all I think it I understand that it can obscure some features and fixtures of the original wood But I think it looks very good. I don't think it compromises the integrity of the house and what it looks like in the neighborhood And The solutions that we had talked about in our meeting obviously the hardy plank is a was one of the Materials that is allowed I personally cannot afford 50 plus thousand job hardy plank And I understand there's the Bailey bill, which is a great program. I just don't have the funds to put that up front So that's an issue for me personally We did work out a plan everyone's been great to work with I really just hope for your consideration in this just because I really would like a solution that's going to protect my house because Like you saw the paint is peeling off And it's really starting to wear down the integrity of my home And I'm also getting deployed overseas in the spring And I really would like to Not have to worry about this while I'm gone Um And like I said, I'm willing to you know be creative if we can Work something out with the hardy plank vinyl combo. I mean, I will just keep repainting the house It's just I'm gonna have to keep repainting it and the side of my home is kind of falling apart And I don't have the means to replace the wood or buy hardy plank I did bring some pictures for y'all to include Um And then also a quote of the hardy plank I did do the due diligence to find like how much it would cost because I would love to put the hardy plank on there and solve the problem. Um, I just I just can't at this time and um That's sort of all I have I guess if there's questions that I can answer Something I might have left out. I appreciate it, but thank you all for your time Yeah, okay. Yeah, and actually I do have a couple of follow-ups One is when I staff and you made a comment earlier about there's houses on the street and vinyl I'm assuming these are houses that are outside of the stored district or what no They would be inside, but they would have been vinyl prior to the designation. Gotcha. Okay. All right And also in one thing ma'am actually Like before that it was I actually saw like I owned the house across the street. It was on slide 70 um I mean I understand that it looks the vinyl looks different But I think if you look at the two houses the one on the right is painted and the one on the left is vinyl I don't know I think they I don't think you can tell That's why I originally thought oh my house that I owned is vinyl. So this is okay, but obviously That was my fault for making assumption And I had another question for you as well. Um, I mean staff definitely outlined I guess processes that people do go through to try to remove the paint I mean has all of this been done or where are we on this list here? um to be honest, I don't have the Exact step by step, but I I made sure when I hired someone that they knew they had experience redoing Historic homes with that old of wood they said they They properly treated it remove the paint and paint it over it with the right paint And I even looked up to make sure it was an oil-based primer and paint um But I do I All the specific steps. I I don't know at this time It just I mean I can see that staff's comments is more about the process used to try to remove What is there prior to putting on a new code? That's what I'm trying to understand All right, let me open up to other commissioners.

The Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Local Government and Empowerment through its Youth Empowerment program hosted the Anti-Crime and Violence Ex-Tempo Challenge on June 6th, 2021. The virtual event was held in conjunction with the Community Relations Branch of the Royal St. Lucia Police Force and the Central Development Bank. Gilroy Hall, host of the event and mentors of the participants, expressed that the initiative sought to engage young people on their views on crime and violence using Ex-Tempo. The format that was used is slightly different to the other challenges of the past.  But we took a different approach and hats off to the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Local Government and Empowerment for embracing this idea under the Youth Empowerment Project and of course with assistance from CDB and of course the Community Police and Initiative of the Royal St. Lucia Police Force. So we engaged the youngsters in a series of workshops. The idea was not to tell young people what to say about these issues, but to get information from them about their perceptions, their views, their possible solutions, all any ideas that they have for developing safety in their communities and community development. Commissioner of Police, Milton Daisy, spoke on the important role that young people play in the betterment of society. Partners in the organisation of this workshop and the implementation of the Ex-Tempo challenge and very importantly, Yuda Yufo of St. Lucia, who have embarked on a historic and noble journey. Partnerships in our communities and countries safer, more productive and a joy to live in are extremely important and your contributions today and in the years to come can certainly improve all of our lives. Our youth have a very important role to play in the nation building and the subject matter which you are attempting to help us with is an area that we need to get under control at the soonest. The Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Local Government and Empowerment, Vylda Jusef, encouraged each participant to look within themselves to become productive citizens of society. Thank you for participating in the Ex-Tempo challenge.  Best of luck to each and every one of you. Remember, you are all winners. The Ex-Tempo challenge engaged 24 participants in three age categories from various schools and communities in castries. Terriel Massion participated with an entry entitled Happy People, Happy Community and Jaden Mondazy from the Zaira Simmons Secondary School with a piece entitled Crime and Violence. Ladies and gentlemen, I love my community, but there are some things that make me unhappy. The quarrels and fights really troubled me, we can do better, we can live peacefully. I may be too young to sit in Parliament, but my community, I want to represent. There is my advice to everybody, Happy People means happy community. First things first, what I want to say is that our people mustn't go astray, because all we can do is open pray that these bloodthirsty men never get deprayed.  The feedback obtained from the participants will be used by the Royal St. Lucia Police Force to create new strategies to tackle the issues of crime and violence. From the Government Information Service, I'm Huma Dimath reporting.


trade alert, trade alert, trade alert, a big trade. Klueber comes off the board. The Kluebot been rumored to be traded for a while. Big time rumors last year before the injury with crazy packages. He gets dealt to the Indian to the Rangers from the Indians to the Rangers in exchange for outfielder Lino de Shields and right hander Emmanuel Klase, who's, you know, a closer, who throws a hundred and one mile per hour cutter, supposedly. And Klueber had a one million dollar bonus in his contract if he gets traded. And he the Indians are sending 500 of that to the Rangers. So the Rangers actually got some money. They got a $500,000 and Klueber for Delano de Shields and Emmanuel Klase. There's a couple talking points about this trade. One, Jake, I saw a lot of people on Twitter and Reddit and baseball forums say like, whoa, the Rangers, they're competing. And anyone that listens to talking baseball and you and I have been talking about all they see, we've been telling you the Rangers are going to make a splash for a while now. So I wasn't surprised at all when I saw this, but a lot of people still didn't realize the Rangers are trying to go all in. They got the new stadium. They got some players they like and they want people to come to the new stadium and get excited about the team. And this is what that does. So that's the Rangers aren't done by the way, right? Rangers are not done. I mean, they were in on Rendon.  I would kind of love it if they said they're not rotation, man. I know, hey, go make a splash and sign for you and make it five deep with a lot of quality guys.  I think they've still got one another move up their sleeve. But with the Kluber trade, I'm interested to get your thoughts Jommer because I know from all the reports we heard middle of the season things were down on Kluber. Do I mean is it kind of Texas taking a chance because everyone was giving the Indian shit because it on paper the return for Kluber doesn't look great. But there's a chance Kluber is not anything close to Kluber anymore. Yeah, I think there's a good chance. I mean, I had heard reports when Kluber was trying to make his comeback towards the end of last season that like he did one bullpen session and they're like, they just shut it down. They're like, no chance. We roll you on the mound throwing this. So I think the miles for our are severely dropped. And I think, you know, outside baseball doesn't know that yet. And maybe he does make a full recovery.  Right. And this is a bad trade by the Indians. They get guys. This is my problem with the Indians. They want to tank. We've been saying this for years. They would love to tank. They'd love to trade Lindor and dump salary and all that stuff, but they have too good of players. So now they're making these trades where they trade Bauer, but they bring back Puyg and they're like, no guys fans, we're still trying to compete right now. And then they can they can use that same excuse with the line of the shields and Emmanuel Klase and just tell their fan base. Well, we had better packages, but we want to compete right now and these two guys come over and they go on our team right away. And there might be a lot of truth to that, but I still just think it's dumb. This is a salary dump. I mean, yeah, it's a salary done. There's not really any ways around it. Yeah, I think the other thing, I mean with the Bauer trade, I think the Puyg, I think that's almost a good comparison to the Todd Frazier trade a few years back. Like Puyg was the name, you know, but Fran Milrez was the piece they wanted in that trade. So yeah, I mean, it's how much do they do they love this, this thrower they got the chase kid. But yeah, no angel fans were pissed off because like we've been talking about they need, they need more throwers and they, the reported package that was being asked for from angels land and again, who knows the truth to this, but it was big prospects. So the angels are looking at the return that Cleveland God are saying like, what the hell? We heard you were looking for two top 10 prospects and now you do it for a utility guy and a top 30 prospect. So it'll be interesting to see what Kluber still got. And I mean, yeah, even if he's 85% of himself, it seems like a good deal for the Rangers, but there's also like a chance and I'm surprised more people aren't talking about it that like Kluber ain't Kluber anymore. They took the chance like reportedly the Indians had better offers, but this is what they wanted. And I think what the best thing is they did not want to roll the dice and have him pitch in 2020 and then, you know, move him at the deadline because I think they are scared his value might plummet right once he gets on the mound a handful of times. So the Rangers are taking the chance there. But hey, they have a little nice rotation now. They got they picked up Kluber. They have minor they have Lancelin.  But not a lot of teams have five solid five solid guys with experience and can go out there and do a pitch for a whole season. Yeah. How about how about Jordan Lyles with his Milwaukee numbers earning earning himself some money? Good for him. Yeah. Rangers are Rangers are my number one like flip or flop team. Like either those those old birds put it together like Mike Miners a stud Lancelin has figured it out Kluber's healthy and like it all comes together or like I think it could be a train wreck. I think it could be it could be like, you know, Lancelin was a little smoke and mirrors Kluber's dead. So yeah, I'm I'm I'm excited for it though. I mean, this is this is what we talked about all last year is that we wish teams tried this and baseball had gotten away from it. It's been a great offseason for baseball. I mean, we are still not at Christmas. I mean, by Christmas last year, Jake, was there anything that happened? I think I was looking at it. I think like Corbin had happened and I think one other thing, but everything's happened. Almost everything. Yeah. Yeah.   Like our our teams starting to check off their list already and kind of be done. I don't know. That's kind of that weird weird.   I don't know. But I know that you have two teams in the LA area that need pitchers. The Dodgers need a pitcher. Yeah. The Angels need two pitchers. The Dodgers rotation right now is what Kershaw Bueller made a Urius and May. Am I missing someone? The cat dude, maybe cat dude. What's his name? Strickland? No. No, that was the guy they got from Tampa. Cat dude. Well, when he pitches, they call it cat or day. Yeah. That's that's tough. Is Rich Hill coming back for them? He's hurt, right? I don't believe. Yeah, I don't think he's part of the active plan. Gonsolin is a cat dude. Gonsolin. Yeah. Tony G, baby. Yeah, I mean, they've still they've still got options.


This is Ken Reddick and I'm here to say we've got the greatest records in the AWA. But you're not here to listen to me mumble, let's build you even on the Rest of Rock Rumble, get on! Given the fact that pro wrestling relies heavily on eye-popping visuals, one might assume that at some point in time at least one wrestling promotion has been able to produce a decent music video right? But before we begin, I only got one question for you. Number 10, WrestleMania. Released in 1993, WrestleMania the album features songs like the most 1980 sounding, 1990s ballad by Bret Hart called Never Been a Right Time to Say Goodbye, and The Man in Black Himself. No, not Johnny Cash, but a hip-hop version of The Undertaker. However, the most famous track on this album is a remix of the actual WrestleMania theme, and was of course the entrance music for that young up-and-comer, Linda McMahon. Now, the video for this peppy bop should really begin with a warning for anyone that has sensitivity to rapid-fire camera close-ups that are extreme enough to make both Wayne and Garth blow chunks. But what really tips the scales of the cheese factor here is the infamous opening line, Are You Ready For This Survivor Series? What an odd opening considering the fact that the album and song are both called WrestleMania. Number 9, Rap is Crap. Among its other spectacularly strange decisions in 1999, WCW decided that former A.W.A. prodigy, Mr. Perfect Kurt Hennig, who was practically Canadian, would become a cowboy from Texas, specifically West Texas for whatever reason. Hennig was the leader of the West Texas Rednecks, a heel stable that included Bobby Duncan Jr. and Barry and Kendall Windham. Their one-head wonder, Rap is Crap, was supposed to make the next public enemy number one. WCW's heavily Southern fanbase, 1000% agreed with the Rednecks' assessment of Rap being Crap. The music video itself is a bizarre cheese fest, showing the Rednecks performing on stage in a huge arena and also in front of like 16 people in what is most likely a Shoneys parking lot. Number 8, Rock America. When Chris Jericho teamed up with his old training buddy Lance Storm to form the fiery babyface tag team of the thrill seekers, they had only one goal in mind, TO ROCK AMERICA. Now I know what you're thinking, how could two Canadian Canucks get over running a muck in the old-school Appalachian territory of smoky mountain wrestling that was run by a certified spaz like Jim Cornette? Well apparently all they had to do was spend a day acting like two jackasses and mugging for the camera in like something you'd see in a cheese-laden early 90s sitcom opening. As the glam metal musings of danger-dangers one-hit-wonder Rock America played, what follows is a solid five minutes of these Canadian friends forever feeding tater tots to bears and shopping at a local gift store. I mean, nothing says we're a pair of thrill-seeking party animals like playing Ski-Ball, am I right? 7. Real American Speaking of rocking America, Hulk Hogan was such a recognizable pop culture icon in the mid-1980s that everywhere you looked, all you saw was red and yellow splattered all over the United States. Hogan had action figures galore, a Saturday morning cartoon, and even a Hulkamania workout set that unfortunately did not include batteries or anabolic steroids. 8. The Hulkster The Hulkster was the de facto face of pro wrestling, so it wasn't really necessary, for example, to film a music video for his entrance theme, Real American. But let me tell you something, why not oversaturate the dude? In all its patriotic, provolone glory, Hulk plays a star-spangled electric guitar in front of famous US national landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, the Liberty Bell, and my personal favorite, Mount Rushmore. 6. I'll Be Your Hero Besides Roman Reigns, no superstar has been pushed so hard and so fast as Lex Luger was after Hulk Hogan's WWF departure in 1993. Poised to pick up where the Hulkster left off, Vince McMahon simply decided that Luger would be his next huge babyface star, and set about creating an alternate reality in which that was true. Vince shelled out who knows how much Kay-ish for the now infamous Lex Express nationwide tour, traveling the country in a custom red, white, and blue painted bus, shaking hands and kissing babies in between naps where the total package would lay on an American flag pillow while wearing an American flag shirt while hugging another American flag pillow. And the sappy song I'll Be Your Hero sung by some Michael Bolton wannabe became the cheesy alternative anthem to Hogan's Real American, with the music video practically daring us to not somehow support Lex. 5. Body Work Hacksaw Butch Reed was a beast. The former football standout became a natural fit for the world of professional wrestling with his bold personality and bodybuilder physique. Reed was a strong powerhouse brawler with a solid run in Bill Watts' Mid-South Territory before making his way to the WWF, where it's completely true that he unfortunately no showed the night he was written to become the first Black Intercontinental Champion. And although he did have a successful tag team run as Half of Doom with Ron Simmons in WCW in the early 90s, he never quite reached the peak of his potential. But at least we'll always have this corny training music video to look back on.  4. Hoski Matt Cardona is currently on the greatest run of his career, no longer bound to a contract and a company that seemingly punished him for his creativity. Cardona is always ready and willing to do the work to achieve success. However, back during his WWE days and going by the name of Zack Ryder, the Long Island IC dreamt of being a pop star baroski, which actually came true by becoming the first WWE superstar to crack the iTunes Pop 100 with his smash hit Hoski. With such deep and thought-provoking lyrics like And Roses Are Red and Violets Are Blue, you may have left me, but I still woo, woo. 3. Girls in Cars Somewhat remembered for his smooth 1980 yacht rock hit Steal Away, singer-guitarist journeyman Robbie Dupree wasn't exactly the type of music act you peg for the world of sports entertainment in the late 1980s. But as a favor to his buddy and the real American Rick Derringer, Dupree performed the wussiest wrestling tune ever. Now somehow, a cheesedick song about one man's love-hate relationship, well with Girls in Cars, became the awkward-sounding theme music for the white meat-ra-ra babyface tag team of Tito Santana and Rick Martell. The song's video features plenty of women in vehicles of all shapes and sizes, as well as some rather odd footage of Dupree rocking out on a beach and getting swarmed by a bunch of seagulls. How this adult contemporary composition wound up accompanying the strike force to the ring is beyond me.  2. You Drop the Bomb on Me Any attempt by a wrestling promotion to create a traditional music video has typically resulted in mediocre mounds of mozzarella. For years, wrestling had been an athletic soap opera for dudes, but in the early 1980s, the promoters in the wrestling hotbed of Memphis, Tennessee, decided that after decades of exclusively hiring pot-bellied pigs, they'd switch it up a little and appeal more to the female demographic. And thus, the fabulous ones were born, sporting feathered mullets, deep tans that would make Matt Cardona proud, and thick mains of flowing chest hair. Skinner Steve Kern and Sweet Stan Lane treated viewers to clips of them oozing gallons of machismo, sipping sherry in a bubble bath, and playing dress up in and around a rural cabin which was probably located just due south of Brokeback Mountain. 1. The Wrestle Rock Rumble As legend would have it, the Wrestle Rock Rumble was one of the very worst attempts at trying to promote a big time wrestling show. Old school A.W.A promoter Vern Ganya had long resisted the winds of change that were transforming wrestling right in front of his Coke bottle glasses. And by 1986, while it was as undeniable as Cody Rhodes that the WWF brand of sports entertainment was the way. And so Vern channeled his inner soul patrol and co-wrote an A.W.A themed Super Bowl Shuffle parody rap. The Wrestle Rock Rumble featured the biggest stars of mid-80s Minneapolis, reciting fat rhymes layered with so much cheddar you'd have thought that Packers Nation had infiltrated the Twin Cities.
