No Doubt

Like, you know, and then I. fucking destroyed him absolutely left him in the dust i don't know what happened he didn't want to he just didn't care enough to compete yeah but you know what i was taking him two at a time and he was like hey well you got a

bigger stride there's no doubt about that but

he's i mean he's he's five four at this point or something he's he's

you know so am i

Really? Should we do a super group of both bands combined? Again, I think you need me to not be involved.

Howard! Oh, we need the power.

Now, Scott, some people might know that you went to high school with members of No Doubt.

Did your band ever open for one member?

David Zappel, of course.

And apparently Walder went on to become a fairly prolific record producer, including producing the No Doubt album, Tragic Kingdom, and a lot of other recognizable names.

There we go.

Well, all right,

So good.

And just, you know, even no doubt.

Yeah.

I know back when Gwen was actually cool.

Literally in the cars when I found out it was for the cover of Vogue and Andy Liebowitz was shooting it.

And like for our generation, again, like I had No Doubt posters.

That was my first concert.

And I remember just shaking driving there.

We'll talk about movies and books when we come back in a few seconds.

Before we go to the break, though, you have decided to go with No Doubt as your favourite gig, something Stephen said featured in your thought process here as well.

So tell me what the gig was for No Doubt and why you've picked No Doubt.

No Doubt was the first live musical performance I ever saw.

Okay.

And it was No Doubt and Blink-182.

And I had loved No Doubt as a youth, I think, like most people my age.

And the really remarkable thing about the gig is that Gwen Stefani did not stop moving the entire time.

I mean, that's got to be it, right? I don't know if the numbers are out there, but Sammy's got to be the wealthiest member of the band because of the tequila.

No doubt.

I wouldn't be surprised at all, especially just because the Van Halen brothers were pretty notorious for mismanaging their finances as well.

And, I mean, didn't Mike Anthony have a hot sauce or a whiskey at some point? Yeah, Matt Anthony hot sauce.

No, yeah, but I'm familiar with that one.

I've never heard Spirit of Eden, but I do like their synth stuff as well because they have their song Talk Talk named after themselves as well.

They also did It's My Life that was famously covered by No Doubt as well.

right

And as Jimmy reminded Dave, there's some history with this KROQ Acoustic Christmas show because the Foo Fighters played it in 1995 when Jimmy himself was actually working on KROQ's morning show.

But that 95 bill was stacked with artists like Radiohead, No Doubt, Garbage and Alanis Morissette.

So it was at that show that Dave first met a certain blonde-haired drummer that we all became very familiar with.

So they had a lovely reminisce about that first encounter between Dave and the late, great Taylor Hawkins.

That's so exciting.

That was at No Doubt.

One of the best shows.

Oh, yeah.
