Ralph RasmussenHOST
And then next Saturday, we'll be talking to Christian Love.
Ralph RasmussenHOST
And if you're not familiar with Christian, he is the son of Mike Love, one of the founding members of the Beach Boys.
Ralph RasmussenHOST
And he's got a new single out.
Ralph RasmussenHOST
He's in the Beach Boys as well.
Eric Van RysdamGUEST
I haven't been yet, but, like, my friends have this band that they do punk covers, and they played, like, a soft opening, and I heard it went well.
Eric Van RysdamGUEST
And, you know, so obviously I'm hoping for complete success, but I'm also feeling like Mike Love in 1966 in The Beach Boys looking at Brian Wilson going, don't fuck with the formula.
Eric Van RysdamGUEST
But what is the formula now?
MarkHOST
Yeah, yeah.
Tom GriswoldHOST
I said, 'Hey, where's my girl?' He goes, 'She's not coming back.
Tom GriswoldHOST
She left with Mike.'"
Josh ArnoldPANELIST
She belonged to the Beach Boys now.
Chick McGeeHOST
I was, I was just gonna say I, I bet you-
Jess HookerPANELIST
What?
Chick McGeeHOST
... anything Mike Love's at the bottom of this.
Josh ArnoldPANELIST
[laughs]
Tom GriswoldHOST
"I said, 'Who's Mike?' She said, 'Mike Love, the lead singer of The Beach Boys.'"
Dennis LinggHOST
back
Mary JonesHOST
not only that they play a song written by mike love and jan and dean
Dennis LinggHOST
yeah
Mary JonesHOST
which is crazy it's like it's not a beach boy
Mary JonesHOST
like one of them
Dennis LinggHOST
obviously
Mary JonesHOST
I don't want to rag on Mike Love too much.
Mary JonesHOST
I mean, yes, OK, yes, he sucks.
Todd BrandtHOST
the Beach Boys have canceled a
PussPANELIST
bunch of tours because Mike Love, it seems, is not well.
Todd BrandtHOST
Yeah.
PussPANELIST
So that's probably a name to keep an eye on.
speaker_1HOST
I wonder what happened.
speaker_0HOST
Right, I mean they postponed it before to give Mike Love some time to recharge, but this feels different.
speaker_1HOST
Exactly.
speaker_1HOST
And they didn't even provide a clear reason for the cancellation.
speaker_0HOST
What does that even mean? It
speaker_1HOST
sounds vague, but it definitely hints at some health concerns.
speaker_1HOST
Mike Love's been in the spotlight for a while now.
speaker_0HOST
Yeah, I remember there were speculations about his health during the tour.
Rob MulhollandHOST
Like, someone's got to give them a tap.
Rob MulhollandHOST
The light's gone out there, hasn't it? The last 20 years of Brian Wilson's career with the Beach Boys, where Mike Love would just push him out on stage and he'd go, I'm getting some good vibrations.
Rob MulhollandHOST
Sad.
Freddy QuinneHOST
I can't wait for when that happens to me.
Matt ElfringHOST
You can find evil
Chris HaynerHOST
Matt, Mike hate, uh, Mike Hate, the evil version of Beach Boy Mike Love, and his tag team partner Moondoggy from Gidget.
Matt ElfringHOST
And also the Vape Nation, which was the original three of us, both of us and Mike Ruiz, way back when he was a journalist at the time.
Matt ElfringHOST
We made a faction between three of us called Vape Nation, which is just really stupid.
Tyler AlstonHOST
I can't think of the guy.
Tyler AlstonHOST
Mike Love.
Tyler AlstonHOST
Mike Love.
Tyler AlstonHOST
Okay.
Tyler AlstonHOST
And he later said, I couldn't stomach that stuff.
Andy RintmoreHOST
Yeah, the toms sounded good on that.
Harry WilliamsHOST
Yeah, there's some very classy drum fills on that, isn't there? And we also have the first, and to be honest, it doesn't come up too often, the Mike Love saxophone.
Harry WilliamsHOST
the very rare Mike Love saxophone.
Harry WilliamsHOST
So he's managed to honk a couple of notes out of it.
Harry WilliamsHOST
I got to say, I do think when they do that song live now, and they have a proper sax player doing it, the simultaneous sax and guitar thing actually is pretty cool.
Harry WilliamsHOST
It's a bit smug in it.
Harry WilliamsHOST
It's a bit odd.
Harry WilliamsHOST
It's a bit chirpy, but Mike, so Mike love in his autobiography, he actually addresses this song head on.
