Snoop Dogg, "Let's Get Blown"
DA: Remember Snoop Dogg? Remember how before he was an actor, roaster, and pitchman, he was a rapper? Man, I haven't listened to this in years.
AVC: Have you seen his new reality show?
DA: I don't watch reality TV. I'm cool. Slam-a-dang-dang! Who's your favorite Dancing With The Star? Anyone ever ask you that? That's my life. People ask you that shit.
AVC: Is that why you're not on any of those VH1 talking-head shows, like Best Week Ever?
DA: If I'm gonna whore it out, I try and make it stuff that I want to whore out on, not the stuff they hand me.
Ozzy Osbourne, "See You On The Other Side"
DA: Now it's coming up Ozzy. You know, Ozzmosis, the whole album is good. My favorite song is "Old L.A. Tonight," though.
Tool, "Unknown"
DA: Man, I have a lot of Tool here. Can't say I'm a huge fan. There are no song titles here, either. It just says "Tool Tool Tool." I guess somebody gave it to me. You know, trying new things. I don't know. It's cool. I'm working on it.
Johnny Cash, "Guess Things Happen That Way"
DA: They sure do. J. Cash really nailed the sad side of life, you know? If you find yourself happy after a Cash song, there's something wrong with you.
Jonathan Katz, "New York City"
DA: [Jonathan] has this album out called Caffeinated, and this is on it. The funniest bit, though, is "A Collect Call From The Pope."
AVC: You were on Dr. Katz, right?
DA: I am Dr. Katz? [Laughs.] I am the real Dr. Katz!
Pete Yorn, "Unknown"
AVC: Ah, the poor man's Ryan Adams?
DA: [Laughs.] I usually listen to Pete Yorn after I get dumped by a dude.
Heather Nova, "Unknown"
DA: You remember her?
AVC: Not really.
DA: Forget it. I think I have it on here because she was hot.
The Flaming Lips, "In The Morning Of The Magicians"
DA: Blah diddy blah blah. Pfft. Everybody loves them.
Alexander Courage/Gerald Fried, "Time Reverse/Future Risk"
DA: This is from the Star Trek soundtrack, the original TV series. That's when you know you're a huge nerd. I believe this is from the one where Spock went back in time to tell me I'm a hack.
Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Pride And Joy"
DA: Stevie is fucking amazing. He's to guitar playing what Bill Hicks is to comedy—you know, they're both Texas guys. I always felt like some kind of weird connection between those two. They're both so good and just their own animal, so proficient at what they did.
Molly Hatchet, "Whiskey Man"
DA: And I am. Man, these are good hits for a random search. For me, Molly Hatchet is high school. It makes me feel like I have hair and a future. That's what I work out to, my friend.
AVC: Optimism?
DA: Optimism! Positive thinking! Who's that guy? Tony Little?
AVC: You mean Rich Little?
DA: [Laughs.] No. Come on. I'm not 100.
2Pac & Outlawz, "Made Niggaz"
DA: 2Pac is still alive, so he can tell you about this himself. Like any other white person, I got very curious after he was shot. I like his style. He was the first guy that I ever heard say he was "all about the ducats." I like it when people have other terms for money.
Avril Lavigne, "Sk8er Boi"
DA: You know, 'cause when I'm at the mall… Yeah. First of all, she's super-hot. She's my favorite one of the whole group. She's like a little ice princess. She doesn't even look like a real woman. She looks like a snowman fucked a glacier and she popped up out. This beautiful fucking Nordic, hot—and she married that guy in what band? Maroon 5? Is that a good band? You would know.
AVC: No, Maroon 5 is not a good band. But you're thinking of Sum 41. Also not very good.
DA: Fucking Sum 41 guy. She's so hot… Okay, and the rest are Hitler's speeches. Now laugh!
