🎸 Five Paragraph Summary of Bob’s Rock and Roll News

Bob kicked off his Rock and Roll News segment (37:40) by announcing himself as “Rock’s last great reporter” and promising to keep things upbeat despite the usual sad news about deaths and band breakups. He emphasized his stream-of-consciousness approach to the segment, noting that he doesn’t even know what he’s doing until the music starts playing! 🎵

The big headline was the Michael sequel confirmation from Lionsgate (39:00). Bob expressed genuine excitement about this, having just seen the first film on Monday night. He shared a miraculous healing story – he walked into the theater with plantar fasciitis but left walking normally, attributing it to “the power of Michael.” The studio boss suggested the sequel might not chronologically follow the first film, which ended around the Victory Tour/Jackson 5 reunion period. 🕺

Bob made it clear that Michael Jackson qualifies as rock and roll because he had Eddie Van Halen and Slash ripping solos on his records. He’s particularly looking forward to seeing more of the catalog covered, as many hit songs weren’t touched in the first film. Bob wants to see “Bad” and other later-era material. He also praised the CGI monkey Bubbles, saying it acted better than many of the human actors! 🐵

The second story covered The Darkness releasing a new theme song for the film “Masters of the Universe” (He-Man movie). Bob noted that some people are saying it’s Queen-inspired. Though he didn’t have time to play it on-air, there’s a YouTube video available. Bob mentioned he’ll be attending the Lone Star Audio Fest all three days (45:20) at the Embassy Suites in Round Rock, where he’ll be spinning vinyl in the Origin Hi-Fi room. 🎶

Bob closed by mentioning he’d be doing “headlines for the kids on the way to the dropout zone” (47:20), noting that artists like Olivia Rodrigo, Charli XCX, and Lola Young are all “doing stuff and things.” He encouraged students to enjoy their final days of school before summer break, acknowledging they’re in “lame duck” status with testing done. 📻

🎤 Rock and Roll Shoutout/Salute

No specific rock and roll salute was given during this portion, though Bob did praise Michael Jackson extensively and mentioned his appreciation for artists like Eddie Van Halen, Slash, Bruce Springsteen, and Paul McCartney as examples of aging rockers still performing. 🎸

🎵 Bands Mentioned During Bob’s Rock and Roll News

• Michael Jackson (primary focus)
• The Jackson 5
• Eddie Van Halen
• Slash
• The Darkness
• Queen (as inspiration for The Darkness song)
• Bruce Springsteen (referenced)
• Paul McCartney (referenced)
• Olivia Rodrigo
• Charli XCX
• Lola Young
• One Direction (Harry Styles’ former band, mentioned earlier)

📝 Three Paragraph Summary of This Portion (Excluding Rock and Roll News)

The show opened with classic Friday energy as Matt, Bob, and Chuy bantered about the surprisingly bright morning and Bob’s healing experience from seeing the Michael movie. The conversation quickly pivoted to what Bob called “the saddest thing I saw on the Internet” – a photo of Matt’s wife Kara watching Harry Styles concert clips and taking detailed notes on each performance (05:01). Bob was genuinely moved by this display of fandom and launched a campaign to somehow get Kara to a Harry Styles show, despite ticket prices ranging from $400-$1,000 and venues being in New York or Amsterdam. Matt initially resisted, arguing there are more worthy causes, but Bob insisted this was HIS cause and he wanted to help. The crew debated costs, with Chuy looking up tickets and discovering floor seats in New York for around $570. 🎭

The discussion expanded to include multiple callers and tangents. Paul from Bastrop called to bring breakfast tacos (19:04), leading to discussions about proper breakfast taco etiquette and driving times. Frankie from Scotland called in (29:03) to share that his family got tickets to see Harry Styles at Wembley Stadium for only $110 each – a stark contrast to American prices. This sparked a hilarious conversation about Scottish culture, including the legendary “munchie box” (a pizza box filled with kebab meat and fried foods), Scottish football versus American football, and the sport of Shinty. The international perspective highlighted how broken the American ticketing system has become with scalpers and bots. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Throughout the show, personal stories emerged about vacation struggles and Memorial Day plans. Matt revealed his “year of vacations” has been a complete bust – every planned trip has been canceled, including a big 80th birthday trip for his mother (52:40). He lamented that his Memorial Day weekend would now consist of cleaning the garage while staring at an unfixed hole in the ceiling that judges him. Bob shared his weekend plans to attend the Lone Star Audio Fest, while the conversation touched on retirement dreams, work-life balance, and the reality that many people struggle to take time off even when they desperately need it. The segment perfectly captured the mix of humor and honest vulnerability that defines the show. 🏖️

The second hour featured significant discussion about Austin news, including the shocking overnight burning of the Malene the Troll sculpture at Peace Park, which was completely destroyed leaving only smoldering embers. The show also covered Austin being ranked the #3 summer travel destination despite the heat, and the controversial NAACP campaign urging black athletes to avoid SEC schools including UT and Texas A&M over voting rights issues. The hosts noted how quickly this campaign gained attention, with Matt calling it “a well-planned and well-executed troll” that successfully targeted what people in the South care about most – college sports. Local business news included HEB closing their 40-year-old Northwest Austin location at Spicewood Springs 🏪

The show took a contentious turn when caller Andrew (Mr. Carter) phoned in to debate the NAACP story, making assumptions about Matt’s political views on voter ID. The 10-minute call devolved into a back-and-forth about voter disenfranchisement, poll taxes, and assumptions, with Matt repeatedly pointing out that Andrew was arguing against positions Matt never took. The caller eventually admitted he was wrong about his assumptions, joking that as a married man he was “used to being an ass.” The tense political discussion highlighted how quickly conversations can become heated when assumptions are made about others’ positions 📞

Jess Pryles joined the show as a guest, bringing her new Hardcore Carnivore carne asada smoked sausages which the hosts thoroughly enjoyed. Jess has been a friend of the show for over a decade and discussed the massive expansion of her brand, which now includes seasonings available at HEB, smoked sausages, grilling tools, TV shows, and books.

She also discussed her recent trip to Australia where she hosted the Australian Wagyu Awards and her upcoming trips for a lamb conference and book promotion tour 🦘

The conversation turned to Memorial Day weekend barbecuing, with Jess providing extensive advice for home cooks intimidated by expensive cuts of meat. Her pro tip: serve everything in tacos to forgive cooking mistakes. She recommended using thinly sliced carne asada-style meats that are meant to be overcooked, then chopped into bits for tacos. Other suggestions included a pork tenderloin stuffed with jalapeños, cheese, and cream cheese, wrapped in bacon (a “pork torpedo”), and the Australian burger with pineapple, beets, fried egg, bacon, lettuce, and cheese. The discussion covered various grilling apparatuses, with Jess revealing she has 7-8 different cookers in rotation and offered to let Chewy use her backyard setup 🍖

The segment wrapped with lighter moments including discussion of Jess’s pet squirrels, the relative merits of different burgers around Austin (with Not A Damn Chance offering BOGO on National Burger Day), and debate about whether Chewy should get an electric indoor smoker for his apartment (Jess’s response: “don’t you dare”).

🕛 Third Hour Analysis 🕛

🌭 Hot Dogs in Studio

No hot dogs were consumed in this portion of the show! However, there was extensive discussion about Jess Pryles’ preparation of Hardcore Carnivore sausages and her “pork torpedo” recipe. Chuy described making carne asada-style tacos using shaved ribeye from HEB’s butcher, who sliced the meat at his request. He creates what he describes as a “Mexican Philly cheesesteak sans cheese” by sometimes melting quesadilla cheese (queso Oaxaca) on tortillas. The process involves getting HEB to slice ribeye to about half an inch thick, then pounding it thinner at home (01:52:20 – 01:54:20) 🥩🌮

Paramount has film rights, and there’s speculation about whether Francis Ford Coppola (87) would direct (02:37:40 – 02:42:00) 🎬
• “I Farted in Yoga” Graffiti – London police are seeking a vandal who spray-painted “I Farted in Yoga” on hoardings (temporary fencing) in Shepard’s Bush, Uxbridge Road.

• Hanger steak availability: Only one hanger steak per animal (unlike most cuts where you get two per side of beef). The hanger steak and tongue are the only singular cuts on a cow. Available at Central Market (02:03:40) 🥩
• Ribeye anatomy: You can separate the ribeye cap from the main ribeye, but doing so “ruins” the ribeye because it no longer has both muscles that define it (01:55:00)
• Meat slicing challenges: Central Market’s meat department doesn’t have slicers (removed after an accident); only the deli section has them, but they won’t slice raw meat due to cross-contamination concerns (01:53:00)
• Charcoal consistency: Kingsford briquettes provide consistent size and burn time compared to lump charcoal, which varies with large chunks and dust affecting cooking (02:15:00) 🔥
• Mesquite characteristics: Burns hotter than other woods and can be acrid, especially on chicken. Best blended with other woods (02:16:30)
• Smoke vs. Grill preference: Jess prefers grilling over smoking, favoring charred flavor from live fire over smoke flavor, though she appreciates both (02:07:00)
• Australian terminology: “Hoarding” = temporary fencing/boards, “ooroo” = goodbye, party pies = small meat pies (02:00:00 – 02:02:00) 🇦🇺

💬 Memorable Moments

• The “Pork Torpedo” Call: First caller Timothy asked Jess to repeat “I like your pork torpedo,” clearly for inappropriate reasons. The hosts immediately recognized what was happening and apologized (01:58:40) 😳
• Bob’s Camera Angle Question: Bob awkwardly asked Jess about her filming technique of leaning over counters with the camera positioned low, trying to discuss the “psychology and physiology” of it. Jess eventually revealed it’s simply where her phone sticks to the wall and has good lighting (02:22:00 – 02:26:00) 📱
• Jess’s Fitness Journey: Revealed she was at 48% body fat at her heaviest and has since transformed through gym work 4x per week and macro tracking. Now able to eat red meat with good cholesterol levels after being in pre-diabetes stage (02:19:00 – 02:21:00) 💪

☎️📞 Phone Callers

• David: Asked about preventing sausage flare-ups and bursting when grilling. Jess recommended using two-zone cooking on propane grill – start on direct heat, then move to indirect heat with lid closed to finish without flare-ups (02:13:00 – 02:14:30) 🔥

🍖 Barbecue Hotline Questions

Hanger Steak Location (text): Central Market sells them; only one per animal making them harder to find (02:03:40)
Pecan Wood for Smoking (text): Jess said it’s fine – use what’s locally available. She doesn’t find enough difference between pellet types to justify switching them out constantly (02:16:00)
Picanha 3-2-1 Method (text): Absolutely not! Jess strongly advised against this. Picanha should be smoked for about 1 hour to medium rare, not 6 hours. Save long smoking for tough cuts like brisket. Can score the fat cap and sear on live grill after smoking (02:08:00 – 02:10:00)
Cottage Cheese Jalapeño Popper Substitute (text): Use cream cheese instead – that’s the normal filling anyway! (02:06:00)
Grilled vs. Smoked Barbecue Preferences (text): Jess prefers grilling for charred flavor over smoke flavor, though appreciates both (02:07:00)
Deli Meat Higher than Boar’s Head (text): Jess recommended the deli section at Central Market with prosciutto and premium meats. Also mentioned Mandola’s at the Triangle for Italian imports (01:58:00) 🥓

The segment included appreciation for Denny’s embracing punk culture and discussion of venues that host underground shows (02:34:40 – 02:37:40) 🎤🍔

📝 Five Paragraph Summary

The final hour of “Mornings with Matt and Bob” featured an extensive deep dive into meat preparation and barbecue techniques with special guest Jess Pryles. The conversation began with detailed discussion of Chuy’s carne asada-style preparation using shaved ribeye from HEB, leading to broader conversations about sub-primal cuts, the ribeye cap, and the challenges of getting butchers to slice meat properly. Jess shared professional insights about different cuts of beef, explaining why certain preparations work better than others, and fielded multiple questions from callers and texters about everything from preventing sausage flare-ups to the proper way to smoke a picanha 🥩🔪

The show took several comedic turns, most notably when the first caller made an inappropriate request regarding Jess’s “pork torpedo” recipe, forcing the hosts to apologize on air. Another memorable moment came when Bob awkwardly questioned Jess about her video filming angles, trying to analyze the “psychology and physiology” of her shooting with the camera positioned low while she leaned over counters, only to have Jess deflate his theories by explaining it’s simply where her phone sticks to the wall. The Australian contingent made their presence known with caller Luke sharing his party pie recipe and demonstrating Aussie slang, with Jess briefly increasing her accent in response to hearing a fellow Australian 🇦🇺😂

Jess opened up about her personal fitness transformation, revealing she had reached 48% body fat before committing to a lifestyle change involving gym work four times per week and careful macro tracking. She emphasized that she now maintains good cholesterol while still enjoying red meat, having pulled herself back from a pre-diabetes diagnosis. This sparked discussion about Bob’s own health journey, including his new $200 Japanese rice cooker for making daily oatmeal with monk fruit sweetener, and his recent foot problems requiring orthopedic inserts. The conversation revealed the challenges of working in food media while trying to maintain health 💪🍚

The entertainment discussion portion covered multiple topics, from the controversial announcement of a fourth Godfather movie based on a new novel told from Connie’s perspective (which the hosts unanimously felt was unnecessary), to the bizarre London graffiti artist spray-painting “I Farted in Yoga” in broad daylight, to the disturbing new documentary about predatory behavior in the plus-size content creation world. The hosts also discussed the Denny’s collaboration with hardcore band Knocked Loose, celebrating how the restaurant chain embraced punk culture by creating the “Mott’s Pit Burger” to commemorate the band’s famous guerrilla performance 🎬🎨

Throughout the hour, the show maintained its characteristic blend of legitimate expertise (Jess’s meat science knowledge), genuine community engagement (multiple callers seeking advice), and irreverent humor (constant jokes about Bob’s age, Matt’s various obsessions, and Chuy’s appetite). The segment ended with plugs for Jess’s cookbook “Prime Cuts” available for pre-order, her Hardcore Carnivore product line at HEB and Academy, and both seasons of her show streaming on Tastemade. The camaraderie between hosts and guest created an informative yet entertaining hour that exemplified the show’s ability to educate while keeping the audience laughing 🎙️✨
