THIS THAT & THE OTHER RADIO SHOW WITH TROY PATRICK FARRELL

On Tues 05/20/2025, I reached out to friend and alumni guest TAIME DOWNE Of Faster Pussycat to see if he wanted to come on and discuss the new tour starting 05/30 in Las Vegas at Count's Vamp'd (who incidentally is in the last month of existence after 16 years) with VAIN, which is subsequently SOLD OUT. Back in March, Taime suffered a terrible tragedy in the loss of his fiancé and understandably has been quiet minus an appearance at the Rainbow Bar and Grill Spring Party with Faster Pussycat. In Early MAY, Faster Pussycat announced a US Tour w/ the Supersuckers as well as dropped a new single called "MOTORBIKE". I reached out to him again during the Live Show "This That and the Other" and he was game and committed to calling me in hour #2 of the show. This would be his first interview in many months. We spoke about the Tour, The New Single, working around the very busy schedule of guitarist "Sam "Bam" Koltun" and what he was doing to mentally prepare for this tour as this one would be very different than past tours. While we didn't get into the details of what happened on the 80's Cruise, you can use google for that if you'd like. Taime was fully exonerated and is now picking up the pieces and finding ways to mentally and emotionally prepare for this next tour that will take them into July 2025. He touches on what he's doing and on how his support system of his band and friends have been helpful in moving forward. The main goal was to see if he was "OK" and to let him let his fans and friends know he is going to be. If you see them on the road, show him and the guys some love and support. You can find more on the Tour, the new single "Motorbike" and much more at www.fasterpussycat.com

LONG TIME NO SPEAK!Guitarist RYAN ROXIE (ALICE COOPER) has just released his new single and now video (Release May 9, 2025) "BETTER THAN YOU" and recently came on "THIS THAT and the OTHER" May 7th, 2025 from the Alice Cooper Band dressing room in S. Carolina to let TTTO premiere the Audio Debut of "Better Than You". We spoke about the following: Interview with Ryan Roxie discussing Alice Cooper's tour, new music, AI, and the dynamics of the band’s evolving legacy. Highlights 1. Gilby Clarke Joining Alice Cooper Band for January/February 2025 Dates Ryan Roxie discussed his long-standing friendship with Gilby Clarke, dating back to their Candy and Tequila Brothers days, and expressed gratitude for Clarke's role in opening doors for him in the Alice Cooper organization. Clarke stepped in for Nita Strauss and learned 25 songs in just four days, showcasing his professionalism and adaptability. Clarke's style brought a sleazy rock and roll vibe to the band, complementing the existing lineup and adding a fresh dynamic to the performances. 2. New Alice Cooper Album Featuring Original Band: "The Revenge of Alice Cooper" The upcoming album, set for release in July 2025, features the original Alice Cooper band for the first time in 50 years, highlighting the legacy and magic of the original lineup. Ryan Roxie expressed gratitude for the original band’s contributions, emphasizing their role in creating Alice Cooper's enduring success. Roxie shared his experience playing Glenn Buxton's parts during a UK tour with the original band, calling it a privilege to witness their chemistry firsthand. 3. Current Touring Band's Potential New Album Ryan Roxie hinted at the possibility of the current Alice Cooper touring band recording another studio album, citing the strong production capabilities of band members like Tommy Henrickson, Chuck Garric, and Nita Strauss. Roxie acknowledged his own old-school recording style but credited producer Robbie Miller for elevating his demo of "Better Than You" to master quality. Roxie emphasized the importance of live shows and the band's ability to adapt and evolve creatively. 4. Ryan Roxie's New Single: "Better Than You" The single, set to premiere on May 9, 2025, is described as an anthem of rebellion against doom scrolling and modern societal habits. The accompanying video features nostalgic references to old TV shows, likening doom scrolling to channel surfing from earlier decades. Roxie collaborated with French-Swedish creative Erwin Langeray for the video, which includes Easter eggs and a narrative about self-realization and rejecting superficial comparisons. 5. AI-Generated Interview with Younger Ryan Roxie Roxie revealed an upcoming special episode of his podcast, "In Trenches," featuring an AI-generated younger version of himself interviewing his current self about "Better Than You." The AI-created younger Roxie asked questions and conducted a full interview, showcasing the innovative use of technology in content creation. 6. Alice Cooper's Exit Strategy: "Riding Into the Sunset" Ryan Roxie confirmed that Alice Cooper has no exit strategy and plans to continue touring and performing indefinitely, emphasizing the joy and privilege of their career. Roxie reflected on the band's longevity and his own gratitude for being able to perform and create music at nearly 60 years old. 7. Touring Dynamics and Setlist Evolution Roxie mentioned the band's current setlist is strong and well-received, with discussions about incorporating new songs from "The Revenge of Alice Cooper" into future shows. He teased a brand-new show design and setlist coming later, indicating ongoing creative evolution within the band. 8. Ryan Roxie's Perspective on AI Music vs. Traditional Songwriting Roxie expressed skepticism about AI's ability to replicate the soul, emotion, and authenticity of rock and roll, emphasizing the importance of human connection in songwriting and performance. He acknowledged AI's...

AFTER 2.5 YEARS OF REQUESTING HIS HONORABLE PRESENCE- Judge J Middleton agreed to come on my show. When the pandemic hit, many courts went to "Zoom' style hearings and Judge Middleton secured a channel and his town/court system secured "Zoom Licenses" not in anticipation for the shutdown, but ready to go, nonetheless. After some great (or terrible) viral cases, Middleton became a Rock Star Judge. My thoughts are he was/is Fair and Firm. The guy you respect but don't want to be in front of. His court cases have been seen by A&E Court Cam and many other shows due to the sporadic events that can and will happen during a court case. I fell in love with him and his laid-back demeanor, his classic rock vibe as he sang songs while he launched his stream. This is the first of NONE- with respect to interviews and I feel we hit some very common questions and answers that perhaps we're all thinking during many of these cases. We also hit on Sov Cits and much more. Enjoy this exclusive interview with the almighty Judge Jeffery C Middleton

I recently saw a post about a customer who went to a restaurant in Minnesota noting the questionable "Health and Wellness" charge. I called the restaurant to find out why there were charging this rate and I'm certain you can guess how they justified it. We also find out what a "Frickle" is and discuss my recent experience at Rock N Brews at LAX where Gene and Paul are tossing in a 20% tip on overpriced beers! On This That and the Other, we dive deep into this massive scandal! :) And BTW: Minnesota Minnesota law makes it legal to record an oral or telephone conversation with the consent of one or more parties, provided there was no criminal or tortious intent. Unauthorized recording in violation of this law can lead to jail time, fines, and/or civil liability. MN Stat § 626A.02 (definition & penalty), § 626A.13 (civil damages)
