Samuel SpencerHOST
The album chart this week 20 years ago gave us two in the top 10.
Samuel SpencerHOST
The best of Freddie Mercury's solo work at number six and the excellent Missy Elliott's Respect Emmy.
Samuel SpencerHOST
Really an absolutely fantastic greatest hits collection of absolute bangers.
Samuel SpencerHOST
As for new albums, the highest new entry is Basement Jack's Crazy Itch Radio, underwhelming at number 16.
Jim LillHOST
And it is the best first two minutes of a movie that I've ever seen in my entire life.
Jim LillHOST
Like when Freddie Mercury is walking, camera's tracking him, he's walking backstage and he parts the curtains, goes out and it's Farm Aid 1985 or Live Aid or whatever it was.
Jim LillHOST
Farm Aid is probably different.
Jim LillHOST
I think it was Live Aid.
Jim LillHOST
And so this would be a bit of an uphill battle.
Jim LillHOST
But I also know that because it's so famous, it probably has a bunch of info out there about what went into the recording of it.
Jim LillHOST
Like this article, Brian May goes deep on Bohemian Rhapsody, the gear, the solo, and the magic of Freddie Mercury's Finest Hour.
Jim LillHOST
What do you remember about the recording of Bohemian Rhapsody and how you created the solo for it? This track had been evolving for a while.
Ruben QuirozHOST
And I think kudos to his family or whoever, like, okayed this.
Ruben QuirozHOST
Because usually when you do a biopic, you kind of want to just paint the character or person, I should say, as, like, the saint that, you know, like, Rami Malek's Freddie Mercury.
Ruben QuirozHOST
Yeah.
Ruben QuirozHOST
like Jafar Jackson's Michael Jackson earlier this year.
Tony MoclairHOST
I can only say this to you, Robert.
Tony MoclairHOST
If you're planning on seeing Freddie Mercury, I've got some very bad news for you.
Tony MoclairHOST
You might have to stay on the line.
Tony MoclairHOST
Robert, thank you.
AlexisHOST
Um, Flashers, okay Flashpoint, okay.
AlexisHOST
Yeah, my question this week are, number one, okay, this story isn't as bad as some people say online, but if you played Bohemian Rhapsody on loop for 24 hours, I'd push anyone into a Freddie Mer- anyone in a Freddie Mercury Halloween costume down the stairs, and this story has not one but three adaptations, only one of which is good.
AlexisHOST
What is a story ruined by overexposure?
Glen MatchettGUEST
Hmm.
Scott SchaeferHOST
Tens of thousands of panels handcrafted with care by mothers and fathers, brothers, co-workers, friends, lovers and spouses sewn into three by six foot panels.
Scott SchaeferHOST
panels for everyone, from musicians like Freddie Mercury of Queen and Sylvester, to political activists and artists like Keith Haring and Robert Mapplethorpe, to others who lived quieter lives, but whose death crushed those who loved them.
Scott SchaeferHOST
Jones had a vision.
Scott SchaeferHOST
He wanted to spread huge sections of the quilt out on the National Mall in Washington.
Muni LongGUEST
Mm-hmm.
Angela YeeHOST
Freddie Mercury was one of the people.
Muni LongGUEST
My favorite.
Angela YeeHOST
Yeah.
Muni LongGUEST
[laughs] And Mariah's half Black.
Muni LongGUEST
I mean, I'm just saying, like, that's kinda crazy that y'all think that.
Muni LongGUEST
And Freddie Mercury was, like, Persian or something? Like, he was something.
Angela YeeHOST
Oh, yeah, 'cause I-
ElsieHOST

Tom Van der SandenGUEST

Yeah.
ElsieHOST

Average TravHOST
