Summary

DISGRACELAND – Bonus Episode: Heart Issues and Hurricanes

Host: Jake (Double Elvis Productions)
Date: October 10, 2024

---

Episode Overview

In this After Party bonus episode, host Jake takes listeners on a freewheeling ride through conspiracy theories surrounding Sean “Diddy” Combs and mysterious deaths in his orbit, listener reactions to the question of “good people dying young,” and news and updates from the Disgraceland universe. The episode is packed with community engagement—voicemails, texts, DMs—and a touch of hurricane-induced chaos, as Jake reports from Florida just ahead of a major storm.

---

Main Topics & Discussion Points

1. Only the Good Die Young?

(Starts at 03:09)

• Jake opens with reflections on the tragic death of Brandon Lee at 28, linking to a broader theme of talented artists dying young—Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopes, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse, Nipsey Hussle, Tupac, Biggie—and how the line between “good” and “bad” isn’t always so clear.
• Quote:

  "Brandon Lee, the subject of this week's Disgraceland After Party, died young at 28 years old. By all accounts, Brandon Lee was one of the good ones. His father, Bruce Lee, died young, too..."
  —Jake (03:53)

2. Diddy, Deaths, and Conspiracy Theories

(Begins at 04:36)

• Explores TikTok-fueled rumors and conjectures regarding Sean Combs’ alleged (and unproven) connections to premature deaths in his professional circle (Kim Porter, Andre Harrell, Heavy D, Craig Mack, Black Rob, Kathy White).
• Jake expresses skepticism, highlighting the lack of hard evidence but pledges to research further.
• Quote:

  "Given the individual that we are talking about here, Sean Combs, Diddy, this amount of people, all of whom were financially entangled one way or another with Sean Combs via his record label business, you have to pause to wonder. Okay, it's pretty, pretty—I'm channeling my inner Larry David—it's just too damn coincidental."
  —Jake (06:57)

• Commits to giving listeners “the straight dirt on the sourcing” as more information comes to light in the coming weeks.

3. Breaking News & Rumors: Sex Tape Scandal

(11:30)

• Updates on the developing story of a supposed “A-list celebrity” involved in a sex video with Diddy, and the efforts to suppress its release (“catch and kill”).
• Jake notes the media’s salacious interest and asks: does it even matter if it involves consenting adults?
• Quote:

  "Even if this is an A-list celebrity on the video, who really cares, okay? It's not against the law to have sex on video... Even if you're that guy, it's not illegal to have sex, okay?"
  —Jake (14:10)

4. Upcoming Episodes & Disgraceland Announcements

(16:03, 19:47)

• Programming Update:
  • New full episodes drop Mondays.
  • After Party bonus episodes on Thursdays; Rewinds on Fridays.
• Next subjects: The Cramps, Poltergeist Curse, The Exorcist, Harry Houdini (All Access), rewinds on Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Robert Johnson, Misfits.
• October 29: Virtual Book Club (“The Exorcist” discussion).
• New limited-run Disgraceland “dark and spooky” t-shirts dropping next week (inspired by Black Sabbath & The Cramps).
• Quote:

  "Halloween and Disgraceland has turned into my favorite time of the year. Somehow I was never a Halloween guy until I started this podcast."
  —Jake (21:05)

Listener Segment Highlights

Question of the Week: “Good Artists Gone Too Soon”

(23:54–28:59)

• Michelle from Lowell: Honors Anton Yelchin (actor) and laments the senselessness of his tragic death.
  • Quote:

    "His fucking Jeep rolled down the driveway... and pinned him against his mailbox. So he died agonizing and slow... one of the worst things I could possibly imagine."
    —Michelle (24:21)

• Christina from Brooklyn: Picks Adam Yauch (MCA, Beastie Boys) as an iconic loss.
  • Quote:

    "Absolutely hands down, Adam Yauch from the Beastie Boys, MCA, who... tremendously impacted my childhood and youth."
    —Christina (25:58)

• Tony from 206: Shares a story about visiting Bruce and Brandon Lee's graves and comments on security issues (grave robbing), then pivots to concert safety (inspired by the Travis Scott/Astroworld disaster).
  • Quote:

    "It was so surreal to see it... people would come into the cemetery and take that part off [of the headstone] and sell it on the black market."
    —Tony (27:32)

More Listener Feedback (Texts & Socials)

(28:59–34:28)

• Mary from 703: Recalls Eminem warning his crowd to prevent trampling, contrasting with Travis Scott’s behavior.
  • Jake confesses to previously mocking Eminem in his episodes, has since grown to respect him, and teases that Eminem may unexpectedly play a role in the wider Diddy story.
• Multiple Listeners:
  • “Disgraceland” merch ideas (“That’s a lot of fucking baby oil” t-shirt), Beastie Boys requests, and reminiscences about “The Crow” and Heath Ledger.
  • Musical recommendations (Keith Jarrett) and Crow soundtrack praise.

---

Notable Interactions & Moments

• Genuine Listener Engagement:
  Jake reads and reacts in his trademark irreverent, direct style; he truly values listeners’ calls, texts, and DMs—both the heartfelt and the tongue-in-cheek.
• Pop Culture Crossovers:
  Real talk about the dangerous myth of “only the good die young,” Alec Baldwin/Rust movie tragedy as a possible future episode, and punk rock references (Minor Threat lyric).
• Quote:

  "There's nothing I like more than fucking with precious fans of musicians, because everyone really needs to just lighten up a notch in 2024..."
  —Jake (29:51)

• Merch Giveaways:
  Listeners whose reviews are read on air get free shirts (while supplies last).

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

hey discos, need a little more Disgraceland in your life? Just a touch to get you through. Yeah, me too. This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome to Disgraceland. The. Foreign. Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode, a little thing we like to call the After Party. This is the show after the show, the party after the party, the bridge to get you from one full episode of Disgraceland to the other, the backyard. To dig into the dirt on this bonus episode, we are talking about this week's subject of the Disgrace Landfold episode, Brandon Lee, from the excellent movie the Crow with the most excellent soundtrack, more from the Sean Combs story, and some special announcements from the world of Disgraceland. And of course, we are diving into your voicemails, texts and more. And as always, a whole lot of Rosie. All right, discos, let's get into it. And they say there's a heaven for those who will wait. Some say it's better but I say it ain't. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. The sinners are much more fun, you know that. Only the good die young. That, of course, is Billy joel from his 1978 hit, Only the Good Die Young. Brandon Lee, the subject of this week's Disgraceland afterparty, died young at 28 years old. By all accounts, Brandon Lee was one of the good ones. His father, Bruce Lee, died young, too, at the age of 32 years old. Lisa Lopez, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse, Nipsey Hussle, all previous Disgraceland subjects, they all died young. And despite being complicated and sometimes problematic individuals, I believe them all to be good at heart. Other Disgraceland subjects, some real bastards are either still breathing or lived long, full lives. Jerry Lee Lewis, Big Lurch, Varg Vikennes, Ike Turner, to name just a few. They, of course, not Good people. They were or are bad, bad men. But Billy Joel was onto something, though. That statement, only the good die young. It isn't absolute. Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G. they died, okay? Tupac was 25, Biggie was just 24. I'm not saying either were good. Tupac especially was at times a horrendous human being. And Biggie had his issues too. But still, they were young men. Had they lived, you can make the case that they could have probably redeemed themselves. Who knows? 24 and 25. Far too young to go, though, okay? Tupac and Biggie had a lot in common. They were, of course, friends, then famously enemies, and now a part of the same unsolved murder mystery conspiracy theory. They also shared a common friend at one time, anyway. And Sean Puff Daddy, Diddy Combs. Biggie was Diddy's meal ticket. The start that helped Diddy, then Puffy forever. Sean Combs to launch his career into the stratosphere. And Tupac was. If we're to believe the recent theories floating around TikTok, Tupac was allegedly Sean Combs lover. I'm emphasizing allegedly because as far as I can tell, this is just a rumor. That said, I'm not discounting it. This is a credible source alleging that at the very least, Sean Combs up until the right now is and always has been obsessed with Tupac. It should be noted that there are less credible sources claiming right now that Tupac's family has hired new legal representation to investigate Diddy's involvement in Tupac's death. But again, like I said, less credible sources. I'm not so sure Sean Combs killed Tupac. It's just too neat. It's too tidy of an ending. It's too Hollywood. But a lot of other presumed good people in Sean Combs's orbit have died youngish. And it's kind of weird and worth mentioning. Okay? Kim Porter, Sean Combs girlfriend, the mother of three of his children and former Uptown Records employee and co worker of Sean Combs. She died, some would say very mysteriously at the age of 48 from pneumonia back in 2018. Andre Harrell, founder of Uptown Records, the label where Diddy and Kim Porter started out. He died back in 2020, a healthy man from sudden heart problems. Uptown Records artist Heavy D. Remember Heavy D and the Boys? Heavy D. He died back in 2011 from a pulmonary embolism after Sean Combs and Andre Forell had a vicious falling out. Combs, of course, then went on to start Bad Boy Records, where he signed among Other artists, Craig Mack. Craig Mack died and in 2018 at the age of just 47. Like Andre Harrell from heart problems, Bad boy artist Black Rob. He died in 2021 from cardiac arrest. Okay, There's a lot of conjecture around the deaths of all these music industry professionals and artists connected to Sean Combs. Now, lots of people die from heart problems. Lots of people die young. But given the individual that we are talking about here, Sean Combs, Diddy, this amount of people, all of whom were financially entangled one way or another with Sean Combs via his record label business, you have to pause to wonder. Okay, it's pretty, pretty. I'm channeling my inner Larry David. It's just too damn coincidental. And I'm not saying that there's some grand conspiracy at play here. I'm saying that this deserves a little more research, a little more than I've been able to give it. I have seen this conspiracy theory pop up numerous times on TikTok. Jaguar Wright is all over it, but I have seen nothing to substantiate it. I've seen nothing that actually ties a thread of credible sourcing through all of this. That makes me go, hmm, there's something there. There's motive, there's intent, there's will, all that stuff. I have not seen any of that yet. I've only seen, like I said, conjecture. But still, I'm a grown man with my big boy pants on, okay? I'm not going to shy from a conspiracy theory just because it's a conspiracy theory. At the same time, I'm not going to promote it as being fact. This, despite there not being any proof that I've seen yet, deserves a little more research. So I'm going to dive into this for you guys and I will report back. And I'm not sure how I'm going to do that. Maybe I'll do it in an after party. Maybe there'll be a full episode on this. I'm not sure, but something's coming. I'm going to look into this a little more fully, okay? Like I said, lots of conjecture around the deaths of all these music industry professionals and artists connected to Combs. Lots of people, like I said, they die from heart problems. They die young. I'm going to get into these deaths in the coming weeks. But I'm also, I'm very compelled by this one here. The allegations surrounding Diddy, Jay Z and the death of Kathy White, AKA Becky with the good hair, who died. Okay, another one dying young while pregnant at just the age of 28 suddenly from a brain aneurysm wasn't heart related brain aneurysm. I'm gonna look into this as well. This is incredibly salacious and I'm gonna report back to you guys on what I can find. As always, I will give you the straight dirt on the sourcing. Okay, Who I think is credible, who I think is not credible, and why. Now I'm talking about these deaths because like it or not, they're part of the Sean Combs story, which is vast. And this story is unfurling in real time. And it's all coming to light publicly. He's not even near trial yet. Every day new news breaks and I suspect that by the time you hear this episode, more news will have broken on Sean Combs, perhaps rendering this particular subject that I'm discussing with you right now, the deaths around Combs. Perhaps new news breaks before you hear this that renders this subject to be a little less relevant. I say this because I'm recording this bonus episode for you early. I'm recording on Tuesday. I usually do it on Wednesday. Get it out to you on Thursday so that I can be as close to the episode as possible. And the information while you're hearing it, however, some of you may have heard there's a massive hurricane coming my way. I'm in Florida and I need tomorrow, Wednesday, the day I would normally record this episode to. You know, basically hunker down and there's a good chance I'm gonna lose power. So you're getting it. Now, I hope everyone else there who's a little, a little more fully in the line of the hurricane, I hope you guys are getting out of Dodge. I hope you're safe. But anyways, that's why I think there might be a chance of what I'm saying to you now being a little less relevant by the time you hear it two days later because of the hurricane. And we know the Sean Combs story is a hurricane. Nothing is going to stop it. There's been some news over the last week since we last talked the big news. I suspect that we're gonna get in the coming days, though, in the coming weeks is the story that I mentioned last week with the quote, unquote, more high profile individual featured in the sex video with Combs, if you recall, attorney Ariel Mitchell Kidd has claimed publicly that the owners of this video of the alleged more high profile participant has been shopping a catch and kill deal. Well, now this news has developed slightly and Ariel Mitchell Kidd, again, the attorney, she's back on News Nation. And she's making this news, okay, that the high profile person in the video is trying, is trying to catch and kill this themselves, trying to purchase this. But they are bidding for ownership of the video. They are bidding against two major news networks to gain control of this video, to keep it from coming out. Okay? We shall see. Even if this is an A list celebrity on the video, who really cares, okay? It's not against the law to have sex. It's not against the law to have sex on video. Even if you're a very short, very funny comedian who not only stars in commercials with LeBron James, but who also emcees Diddy parties and Tom Brady roast, Even if you're that guy, it's not illegal to have sex, okay? So if you show up on this video, if your heart gets broken and you show up on this video, perhaps even if you're having sex with Sean Combs in this video, end of the day, who really cares? Now, if there's a minor in the room, if there's a minor in this video with you, well, then you're fucked, okay? You got more than a broken heart to worry about, all right? And if you were to then say, I don't know, die young, of, say, a sudden heart issue, I'm not so sure Billy Joel will be singing you any songs. All right? You get what I'm saying here? All right, switching gears. We have an episode on the band the Cramps coming next week. And as you listening, guys, you'll hear that this is a story about a rock and roll band. A real rock and roll band. Real rock and roll, not rock. Rock and roll. You'll hear the difference in the episode. And when you're listening to this episode, please be thinking about what band, what, what band out there made the greatest rock and roll of all time? Gotta be a band. And I'm not talking about rock music. I get into the difference. I get into the difference in definition between rock and roll and rock in the episode. I don't want to do it here, okay? But just know, rock and roll down dirty, fun, guitar driven music for teenagers. Music that makes you feel like a teenager. Okay, so loosely based on that definition, I guess what band, in your estimation, made the greatest rock and roll music of all time and why? I already know my answer. It's a pretty basic one, but I want to know your answer, so hit me back. 617-906-6638. Voicemail and text. Disgracelandpod on the socials. Disgracelandpodgmail.com on email and I will answer you guys here in the next afterparty bonus episode. But right now I'm take a quick break. Back in the flash with some of your voicemails and texts and DMs from last week.

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

All right guys, a couple of announcements. The live stream event that we had scheduled For Wednesday night, October 9, it was of course postponed due to the hurricane. I was unable to live stream live in the storm here in Florida. Tickets are being refunded as it's unclear due to travel that I have coming up, some other issues that we have going on when we're gonna be able to set up another date. I'd rather just get you guys your bread back into your pockets. You can do what you will with it and we'll do something around this story later in the future at a to be determined time and place. All right, I am excited to get you guys this story. The Tom DeLonge story of government disclosure, government conspiracy, ufology, all that. When we do, you will be the first to know. You'll be the first to know the date, the venue, et cetera. But until then, like I said, you get your bread back. You can do with it what you want. Apologies to those of you guys who bought tickets. I truly appreciate the support. And if you were looking forward to this event as much as I was, I just want to say there was literally nothing that we could do about this. It was just scheduled on the wrong day. October 9th. Can't control the weather, but just wanted to voice my gratitude to you guys. And yeah, we'll have something special coming up for you guys soon. Okay, Another couple updates. We have tweaked our podcast episode release schedule very slightly. You may have noticed that our full new episodes. I talked to you guys about this. I asked you what you thought. I received zero negative feedback on this for what we were planning on doing. So you may have noticed that our new full episodes, like the Brandon Lee episode that you just got this week, like the Cramps episode that you're gonna be getting next week, these new full episodes are now being released on Mondays after party bonus episod, like this one here that you're. That you're listening to. They're coming on Thursdays as usual. And rewinds, of course, released on Friday. All right, so Monday, Thursday, Friday. That's the release schedule. Now, I mentioned the Cramps episode. I cannot wait for you to hear this Cramps episode. It's an instant favorite of mine. Okay. It's coming to you Monday. I really hope you dig it. I want to hear your comments. We're so inspired by everything we're doing here in this dark and spooky October here. Halloween and Disgraceland has turned into into my favorite time of the year. Somehow I was never a Halloween guy until I started this podcast. But listen, we got a lot, a lot of great episodes coming your way. We've got a Poltergeist Curse episode coming next week. I'm sorry, the week after the Cramps episode. Then we have the story of the Exorcist coming after that. We've got a creepy episode on Harry Houdini coming in the all access feed this month. And rewind episodes on Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Robert Johnson, and one of my all time faves, of course, the Misfits. Okay, final bit of Housekeeping. We have our book club meeting virtually on October 29, where we will be reading and discussing, well, discussing the book we read, which is the Exorcist, one of the best books that I've ever read. This book club is happening one day after our Exorcist episode comes out. So that should make it even extra fun and spooky.

All right, enough for me. Let's hear from you guys. 617-906-6638. To send me a text or a voicemail just like this caller from the 978.

[Michelle (Listener Caller)]

Hey, Jake, this is Michelle from Lowell, formerly of Wilmington, so, Massachusetts, girly. Woo. My answer to your question from the last after party about who the good dying young is. The actor Anton Yelchin. I don't think enough people think about him or, like, recognize how awesome he was. And in my heart continues to be. He also had the same birthday as me, so I had a soft spot for him. But also the way he died was like the most fucking insane and tragic thing. His fucking Jeep rolled down the driveway because, like, it had, like, some sort of parking brake mechanism issue, and it rolled down the driveway and pinned him against his mailbox. So he died agonizing and slow and just like the. One of the worst things I could possibly imagine, you know, there was no fucking reason for that to happen. So I remain devastated.

[Tony (Listener Caller)]

And also, come on, guys.

[Michelle (Listener Caller)]

Anton gave us green room. Like, please put some respect on this man's name. He died way too young and way too soon, and I will probably never get over it.

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

Thanks, Michelle. I am one of those people who. I don't know who the hell you're talking about. I had to look him up. And yes, I. The weight, the death, my gosh, damn, that is brutal. That is brutal. I have many thoughts. I need to collect myself, though, and learn more about this and think about it a little bit more. My first thought, this is. I'm just gonna be real with you. My first thought was I should do an episode on this because this cause of death is insane. And I would love to write about it. Anyone ever watched Six Feet Under? I loved that show. I loved how they opened every episode, how they had that kind of cold, open bit, and it was all just a different cause of death. I found that to be fascinating. That's what. That's what your story reminded me of, Michelle. All right, let's check in with Christina here in the 91 7.

[Michelle (Listener Caller)]

Calling from Brooklyn in regards to a performer who has left way too early. Absolutely hands down, Adam Yeo from the Beastie Boys mca, who is an incredible person, incredible performer, former and tremendously impact my childhood and youth. And first person to affect me when they had passed. Absolutely way too soon. Thank you.

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

Great one. Christina. I didn't. I don't. I don't know why yaak MCA didn't pop into my head when I posed this question, but kind of the perfect example that you're providing here. And, Christina, I'm thinking about doing a Beastie Boys episode. It's one of these things where I'm gonna be a complete hypocrite every time someone requests an episode. And I'm like, yeah, but what's the crime? It's Disgraceland. What's the crime at the core of it? So I can make it true crimey and make it work on our side of the street. And I don't have an answer to that. My own question when it comes to the Beastie Boys. But I just love the Beastie Boys so much that I wanna figure out a way to do this. I wanna figure out a way to write about them. And I know there's gotta be something there. There's gotta be something. Some sort of crazy transgression, if not a crime that I can use to anchor this story. And so I'M looking into that, Christina and the 917. Thanks for bringing up Yok. I appreciate it. All right, Matt, let's do one more voicemail here. Let's check in with the 206.

[Tony (Listener Caller)]

Jake, what's going on, brother? Tony from the 206? Just listen to the Brandon Lee episode. Believe it or not, you know, me being from the 206, I actually went to Brandon and Bruce's final resting place a year after Brandon was tragically killed. And I didn't even put it all together until years later that I had went because I went with a day camp group of mine. But it was so surreal to see it. And at that time, Bruce Lee's headstone had a. It has a picture on it now. But at that time, that part had been stolen because what people would do is they would come into the cemetery and they would take that part off and they would sell it on the black market. So now it's been bolted down. Another thing I want to talk to you about real quick was last week's Travis Scott episode, Brother. I was in Vegas when that happened. And I remember when I put the gist of it together because I was going for another concert, even though that happened in Houston. I remember I texted my friend who was coming in to meet me in Vegas, and I said, hey, we're treading very carefully at this concert tonight that we're going to. So you can bet your last monies. When I saw Ghostface, Raekwon, and GZA at that show, I was looking at for all the exits, but thankfully, we had a great time. And I say this very respectfully, nobody was hurt. Anyway, keep doing what you do. Much love. Talk to you later.

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

Tony, thank you for the call. Thank you for the insight into Bruce's grave. That's a wild story. I had no idea what was the part that was stolen, though. You didn't mention that the part of the grave hit me back and let me know. And I'm also. I'm happy to hear that your Vegas show, though, it was filled with anxiety, did not go off like Astroworld. All right, thanks, Tony. All right, let's do some texts, guys. There are so many texts. Like I said, so many texts. I just. First of all, thank you. Second of all, know that I'm reading them. If I'm not responding to all of them here in the after party, and if I'm not responding via text, just know that I read them all. Okay? And I'm just stoked on the engagement. So this one comes from the 703. Hey, Jake. This is Mary from the 703. It's a long one, Mary, so I'm gonna read part of it. Mary says, I listened to the Travis Scott episode as well as the bonus episode. Although for that one, I was more curious about your take on the additional charges for Sean Combs. Anyhow, I wholeheartedly agree with you on your opinion of Travis Scott being completely selfish and greedy. It actually brought back a memory of when I saw Eminem and DC back in 2002. The crowd was becoming out of control, and people were likely in danger of being trampled. So he told everybody to stop, and if they didn't, he was leaving the stage. Now, I read that part of Mary's text because Eminem before. This is all said and done. Now, listen, you guys who are super disgraced handheads. You know, I have a complicated history with Eminem. Anyways, Eminem. We did an Eminem episode. And you know how I do that bit at the beginning of every episode where I'm like, and they made great music, blah, blah, blah. Well, I said eminem did not make great music. And I did it in part because I truly felt that way at the time, and also in part because I really wanted to fuck with Eminem's fans, who I know are very precious. And there's nothing I like more than fucking with precious fans of musicians, because everyone really needs to just lighten up a notch in 2024 or whenever this went live. Anyhow, I've since grown into an Eminem fan, largely because of my kids. I can't believe I went as far as I did when I said that. Even it's not entirely because of all the shit I got from everybody, but just came to that realization on my own. But more importantly, I think when this Diddy story is said and done, that Eminem is gonna be part of this and not in a bad way. There's a lot of things that have popped off in the last few years where Eminem has been on the right side of the argument. And don't take this as a blanket endorsement of everything Eminem has said or done in the past. That's not what this is. I'm just like, the guy raises my eyebrows every now, and that's all I'm saying. Where I'm like, huh? I agree with this guy. And he said some very interesting things about Diddy. And guys, you got to know, I want to get into him here, but I could make every single after party episode about Sean Combs and I'm trying real hard not to do that, but this is one of those. One. One of those wormholes that I kind of want to dig through a little bit and get more information for you guys. So anyways, that, you know, the 703 brought up Mary brought up the Travis Scott thing with Eminem, and I thought that was a good way for me to connect the two. Let's do another text here. This one from the three also on the subject of Diddy, 304 writes, I want a disgrace sand T shirt that says that's a lot of fucking baby oil. That's not a bad idea. It's gross. That's not a bad idea. 856 writes, in listening to your after party and your response to Stephen reminded me of a young Ian Mackay. Hey, Stephen. Well, at least I'm trying. What the fuck have you done? That's mark from the 856. He's referencing a Minor Threat lyric from the song In My Eyes. And I feel like I lost some punk rock credibility because when I said that last week's episode to Stephen, I should have known I was paraphrasing Ian Makai from Minor Threat. And In My Eyes, I was literally roommates with the guys in the band in my Eyes back in the day. I should have got that one. Fuck. I'm sorry, Mark. Good catch though. 808 writes in the Crow has been my favorite movie since I've seen it in theaters while a senior in high school. For the question of the week, of course, I'd say Brandon Lee. You can see the range in the few actual scenes he is in in the Crow. And Heath Ledger comes to mind. You're right. And they're both similar to me. They both occupy the same sort of space in my head. Good text, 808. I appreciate it. All right, let's do one more here.

[Tony (Listener Caller)]

One more.

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

In the text from the916, it comes from Brooke, who writes in. Hey, Jake, Just wanted to let you know I've been listening to Keith Jarrett, the Rich and the Poor non stop on repeat since you recommended. It's so good. Brooke from the 916. Brooke, you got it. Brooke, I got another one for you. Hang tight for one second. Let me check this out. This is this other Keith Jarrett album that I've been onto in the last couple days. I think I mentioned the cone concert couple episodes ago. But there's also this record called Belonging by Keith Jarrett that is also incredible. That one, the Belonging one, is more like what you're hearing on that song the Rich and the Poor Cole concert is solo piano. I believe the entire thing and belonging is him with the little. I think it's a quartet like he has in the Rich and the poor. 617906-6638 hit me up on voicemail Hit me up on Text disgracelandpod on the dms. Our buddy Chris on it writes in via Facebook regarding the Crow soundtrack, which we discuss, of course in this week's full episode on Brandon Lee. Maybe the best movie soundtrack I've heard. That's a bold statement, Chris. Appreciate it though. What else we got here? Teresa Hamley writes in oh Jesus Christ, I'm about to listen to this. Holy shit.

[Tony (Listener Caller)]

Eh,

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

Teresa, you talk about one of our episodes and she writes in I love this version of After Midnight. You rock. Jake Lowell, I can't sleep without your podcast. You got it, Theresa. We're gonna keep pumping em out so you keep getting those eight hours. Eight hours a night, Teresa, do you do the eight hours or do you do about six or seven? Where you at? The older I get, the more sleep I need. I gotta say, I don't know what it's like for you guys, but I just. It's so important. It's so important for the brain power. The physical stuff I can get through. It's not a drag on me physically so much as it is just on making the brain work in the morning in the way that I need it to work. Okay, let's see. Disgracelandpodmail.com that's how you email me Disgracelandpod that's how you send me some DMs. I'll do emails in a second. Let me do a couple more DMs here. This one comes from listener Joshua Matthew Blevin says, hey, listening to Brandon Lee episode in just a week. A warning. Blanks are dangerous at close range. I know more than one actor in the past thinking blanks were safe have killed themselves playing around with the guns that fire blanks. The firearm safety rules should always apply when handling any type of firearms. Recently Airsoft has been making guns that have a fake muzzle flash and smoke, and this is probably gonna make movies with guns a lot safer. You know, one thing that Joshua's reminding me of here that we didn't talk about is the film Rust and the Alec Baldwin thing, and perhaps there's an episode there. I went to see David Spade the other night do a live set and he was talking about how they're finishing the film Rust and he had some really funny things to say about it, but it reminded me this Alec Baldwin story is just completely just dropped out of my head. And I think it's an interesting one and I think perhaps it could make for a good episode. And you know, it's obviously connected to this Brandon Lee topic that we're talking about. Real quick, shout out to Justin G over on Instagram, my buddy who sends me a whole bunch of great content. He's going through a rough time right now with his job. Justin, I hope it turns around for you. If it doesn't, you know, just listen to some Johnny Paycheck. I'm gonna take a quick break. I'll be back in a flash with some emails and reviews.

[Tony (Listener Caller)]

Foreign.

[Jake (Disgraceland Host)]

Guys, we are back. I want to get into the archive here a little bit before I take off. We talked about Nipsey Hussle. Okay, that episode is episode number 57. Release date May 12, 2020. Lisa Left Eye Lopez was mentioned that episode. OG episode from season one, episode six. Release date April 17, 2018, if you can believe that. Bob Marley was also part of season one. Bob Marley was also mentioned in this episode. Bob Marley was episode nine. Okay. Came out a couple weeks after Lisa left. I Lopez. That's release date May 29, 2018. Okay, now, back in season one, we did a single episode on Tupac and Biggie. And my take on that episode, it's one of my least favorite episodes, but I invite you to listen to it because the take my point of view on that episode, I think is original. I just think the execution of that episode, it's just never. I could, you know, fuck. You know, when you make something, you're just. I can't fucking get it. Right. That's what it was with that episode. Episode 10. Release Date June 12, 2018 and my point was that the media did it. That the media really just stoked the whole east coast, west coast rivalry to such a fever pitch that it resulted in. In murder. And I'm not so sure I believe that anymore. Okay. I was actually thinking the other day, in light of this whole Diddy thing and in light of the fact that there's this rumor that Tupac's family have retained new legal representation to look into Sean Combs related to the murder of Tupac, I started to think about what do I actually think about Tupac's murder? What do I actually think about Biggie's murder? And after doing that episode that I just mentioned, after writing and releasing another two part episode on Tupac Shakur, episode 69 released on January 26, 2021, and episode 70 released on February 2, 2021. After those two episodes, I still don't know. And then we did two episodes on Biggie Smalls and those episodes are from that same season, that same year. I believe that's season eight. Those are released on. Those are episodes 80 and 81, released May 11 and May 25, respectively. A two part Biggie Smalls episode. I have a bit of a theory, but I'm not so sure I believe it anymore. And the person who I have sort of theorized hunched who may have been involved, I don't actually know that I believe that anymore. I really don't. And I'd love to talk to that person. And that person is not that hard to get to. So I'm thinking I might try to do that in relation to this Diddy story as well. I am going to go back and I'm going to listen to all those Tupac and Biggie episodes that I just mentioned. Because I really got to get my thinking right on this. I think the truth, I think we're all just. We're way off. We're way off. I could be wrong, but that's my current thinking. Anyways, all those episodes are there for you to check out. We mentioned a ton in this episode here. The archive, easy to get to. Obviously, you know, you're on Apple podcasts, you're on Spotify. The archive's right there. Keep scrolling back. A real easy way to get to these episodes, though, is our website. We have a listen page where we literally have every single episode that we've ever released with links where you can listen right there.
