So we're going to have that on December 14th. OK. So indeed. So I really like what do you like to do
in your coffee house? I like to talk to people and give them food that they are excited about eating.
And like there's a lot of baked goods and people love it. And it makes me happy that they're happy. Right.
So, indeed. So, I really like those. Yeah. You like baked goods? Like cookies and stuff? Yes. Absolutely.
I sure do. Right. So... Do you drink coffee? I do. Do you ever get like fancy drinks or you just drink
like black coffee? Apparently, fancy drinks. Okay. Yeah. Sometimes I do. That's not uncommon. Yeah.
We have a lot of people.
getting fancy drinks and we're happy to make them. Right. So what's the name of the place? It's called
the Inkwell Cafe. Inkwell Cafe. Yep. Yep. It's in Bloomington. Sure is. Yep. So I really, indeed. So
apparently we would like to bring your female friends to do a dance show.
So you might talk to your female friends. So that would be great for my show. So you like dancing, right?
Sometimes. Sometimes I don't go dancing much myself. Really? Why is that? Work is in my way. Oh yeah.
How's work going?
Work is really busy plus short staff. Mm-hmm. That can be stressful. It always is. Yeah. So I've been
working in McDonald's for 14 years. Wow. No, 13 years in January. OK. That's still a very long time.
Still a very long time. That's impressive. However, I've been working in hardware store for 14 years,
almost 15. Oh, OK.
So however, I held two jobs at all of those times, all those years. That's awesome. However, I really
enjoyed that so far. So I really like them the same though. Hard to choose. So it's really hard to choose
right now. It really is. Alice. So and you
You've been together with Jordan, right? Yes, I have. How many years? About a year and a half. A year
and a half, you're just being in a relationship. In a relationship. In a relationship, so right. Now,
Alice, you really love Lyndon Beasley's My Music. From what I've heard, you've put on some good shows,
definitely. Yes.
You're absolutely right. So I really love this album. I've been putting out albums, 13 albums, 14 albums
this year. That's really impressive. Really impressive. I've been spending a whole lot of time in the
audio production room. I liked the song from your most recent album that you performed. I think it was
number two, Milkshake. Yes. That was a great one.
It was track number two on Happy Days Diner. And yes, it was. That was the hit. But I didn't hear the
full album yet. Not the full album, right? But I heard that one and I thought that was a great song.
Yes. Now, that's your favorite song. Is that right? I believe so.
right on. What was the inspiration for that song? I used to watch Happy Days four years ago on TV. It's
a 1970s sitcom show. Almost 45 years. So from 1974 to 1984. I used to watch classic TV that I used to
have cable but I don't now. I don't
watch cable and I can't afford to buy cable at all either. Yeah. So I used to watch it. So, but I sure
don't watch it. Um, but I apparently I may watch it on YouTube. Yeah. I was going to suggest that there's
a lot of episodes on there. I'm sure now they do. So most likely now. So like it was not.
At the time, however, we got lots of shows is now. So the milkshake song, you were inspired by the milkshakes
on Happy Days? Yeah, like 50s diner. Uh huh. Yeah. Very cool. Like, especially Steak and Shake. Okay.
Yeah. So very well. So I, so I really love those pants. Thank you.
So they're cropped pants. They sure are. So, and I got a Miss Me jeans. Oh, very cool. So like four
button jeans you have on. Okay. Let's look cute. So. Okay. I love button jeans. So, and really love
button jeans and tight jeans.
Like I did made an album called Friday Night Dancing. I made an album back in March. So it was released.
So apparently I really enjoyed that album. So I love wearing boots.
with heels. Okay, cool. You like wearing boots with heels? No. You sure don't? Mm-mm. Like low heels
or flats? Yeah, as flat as possible. Flat as possible with? Just my personal preference. Right. Otherwise
I fall down. Oh yeah. Do you ever fall down in your heels? Sometimes I do. Apparently I may get ready
to stop wearing heels. Oh.
Yeah. Because you fall down with them? No. I decided I made my decision to wear flats as flat as I can.
Oh, wow. OK. However, and I don't want those heels to get worn out either on the street. True.
Or a sidewalk. True. So they get worn out easily. Yeah, yours are great. I personally just can't.
wear them because I I just am not my ankles aren't strong enough apparently no it is but for people
with strong ankles it's a great look yes so not strong enough I'm not strong enough so yep so miss Alice
so it's a really a great thing so
So I go to tape shows too, so. So have you seen the Mike Adams, had his song this way before? The band?
Yeah. Yes, I have. Yeah, I sure have. Twice. Oh, cool. So, uh-huh. So I am still looking into local
bands on film.
of local band film. So I'm going to make a film out of it. So I'm going to put it on the London BC show.
You're going to film other bands? Yes. Okay. Try looking into it. So apparently I'm going to be in season
six. However,
I tried, well, I know we already lost eight people so far before you guys. What do you mean lost? Lost
because they don't want to do a show with me no more, so. Oh, people that you've taped previously that
aren't interested in a return? Well, I actually know, want to delay cancellation, cancel appointment
four times.
and put me in a delay. I have a guest that already put me in a delay, three month cancellation,
three months. And then supposed to be in the summer, it's supposed to be in June 2018, then decided
to put August 28th, it was taped. And then supposed to do October 30th, and then put me in January 29th,
going to be,
So that's really a delay, and we cannot have delays at all, period. So no delays. And that costs me
big time. And I really would love to have you back on the show, of course after the New Year. So we're
getting ready.
to have a great show here on the Let it Be Easy show. So that's why we really need new guests on my
show. And even though returning guests is good, however, we do need new guests still. We still need
new guests as always, however, at this time. I'll spread the word. Yes, you do. You do need to spread
the word, and please let them know. Of course, please,
Call me or text me and bring some guests on my show. Bring your friends. And yes, that's right. You're
absolutely right, Alice. So please bring your friends with you too to do a taping show, especially bringing
female friends doing dance kit with us, including Jordan too.
So, you're a boyfriend. However, I'm gonna have him on my show after the commercial break, later on
tonight's show. I really appreciate that. You like dancing with other people, with other people, right?
So, in the show. No. Not on the show. Yeah. So, not on the TV show.
So especially even with Jordan, so. Yeah. So I just want to tell you. I really I know you don't sing,
so you're not and you're not. Do you play musical instruments at all? No, not at all, not. And but you
are a music fan. I'm a fan.
I'm a fan, but not a musician at all. No, I'm not. So, so, yep. Um, but I know you love my music. So
we usually put it on. I usually put letting me see show on YouTube. Okay. So I have, I have not been
on YouTube, uh, uploading this year because I've been, uh, work work is getting in my way. So 2018. So.
Work was getting in my way. So we have some breaks around the holidays. Will you be traveling at all?
Actually, no, I will not be traveling at all. However, I'll be actually sleeping in. Oh, good.

on your four button jeans.

we love having you guys come back on the show. Of course, that would be great.
So in the meantime, so what do you like to do as a graphic designer? Um, right now I don't enjoy it
so much because it's, it's a lot of, uh, office work. Have you ever worked in an office? Um,
I used to, I do office work at my house. It's boring. So I know, I know it is. Yeah. So right now it's,
it's, I'm bored. Really? Yeah. So.
I also play the drums and the cowboys and that's what I like to do more than graphic design. Really?
You play drums? Well, you know what, that's a good call. So that reminds me. So we do need, I know I
play drums. However, I like to play drums in the recording album and of course,
Um, um, yeah, recording albums. So I've been playing, um, uh, drums for years. Uh, just so I want to
take a break playing drums. So, you know, how to, you know, how the rhythm, right? I think so. Oh yeah.
I taught myself, but I'll know if I, if I did it correctly, but who's to say. Okay.
So we would, however, before we go any further, now we got Rewind Bloomington in Studio A. We got Rewind
at 6th Street between Comic Book Store, Vintage Phoenix Comic Book Store, and Plan 9 Video. Yep, I know
the place. At the other place. That's very close to the library.
So, and that would be great. There is a drum set there. Oh yeah? There is. Is that where you recorded
your drums? Um, actually, sometimes on my other Let It Be Easy program series on Cats TV, of course
Let It Be Easy's drum show, however, sometimes during the Let It Be Easy show tapings at Rewind 2. There's
some of the episodes that are taping it.
So, um, yes, we, I've done taping there before. So, so sometimes doing dance get to it there rewind.
Um, that's why we're having here, uh, and now rewind studio way. So, and that's why we really look forward
to this. So, and it's going to be wonderful. So, and I.
How long have you been playing drums, by the way? For seven years. Seven years. That's great. So,
very well. I just want to let you know, Mr. Jordan, and that would be great. We could play music together
anytime. You play guitar and piano, right? That's right. I sure do.
Of course, instrumental. We really do need an instrumental band. So not only just a one man band, but
however two man band. So like keys and drums. So that's a bass sound too. On the keyboard.
Did you know keyboards has bass sound too? Yeah, like synthesizers. Yeah. Synthesizers, yeah.
And of course, piano. With the left hand. On the left hand, yes. On the left hand, keyboard, bass. However,
that's really wonderful. So and right hand treble. So that's really nice.
So I'm really excited about this day. I'll probably have you come back on Let It Be. We're celebrating
my 37th birthday on the show. And apparently we're really looking forward to it. And of course Jordan,
so we could get together to play music.
Probably on next month and a half next month, so I'll call however. I'll call you so I do now I already
got your number from last week last couple weeks. I think okay. Yes, it was last couple weeks Yes, so
anyhow I just really want to tell you so
I'm absolutely look forward to this playing music with you. So we will look to have you on the show.
Of course I really like, and also we do need some at least announcers too, Lenny Music Show announcers.
So at least four more.
So that would be absolutely great. So are you good with announcing at all? No. My voice is not strong.
Your voice is not strong enough. You need someone with confidence. OK. Which I have some friends that
could send your way. Yes. Also send your way. I'm glad you're reminding me.
Yes, we do need guests on the Lenin Beats show. Like I said, um, early on this episode. So I also please
spread the word to do your part too. I know I'm doing my part right now to myself. However, uh, please
spread the word to your friends too. So, and, and that would be absolutely awesome.
So please send them to your wife, especially female guests on the show. So you have female friends too?
Just Alice. Just Alice? Yeah. So the rest are male friends? Yep. Male friends. Yep. So by the way, the
ratings was not that great.
Uh, guess, uh, we got 80% male guests and 20% female guests appeared on the show. We need to even it
up. So like to put in 50 50. So, uh, 50 50 is, uh, the magic magic number number 50 50. So.
So that's 30% more men than ladies on my show. So we need to get 50-50. Back to 50-50 where I was in
the first place back then. I've done the Let It Be Easy show for three years. Soon to be hopefully four
years. So already, I already lost lots of guests this year because
I don't want to do a show no more. And we have two people, two guests on the show, and I try to explain
it to them, and I wasn't happy about cancellations. And then we have another guest waiting for two years.
That's way too long. We cannot add that at all, period.
So, not at all. Two year wait. So, I have a friend named Jenny. So, waiting two years. From 2016 taping
and then 2018 taping. I had a long talk with a guest. Lives us back a few episodes back. So, at least
five or six, we're an episode.
17 right now, apparently at least 12, 10 to 15 episodes back. So, before you guys came in. So,
however it was, the ratings was not that great on 2018. Last year we done 44 tapings, I done 44 tapings
recording sessions completed. 44 episodes recorded.
in the year 2017 alone. Just by yourself? Well, actually with some guests. Okay. Lots of guests. However,
we lost eight guests on the show. So, eight guests right now. So, and especially we all, I already lost
an announcer, I got terminated, so. So, we got us one first announcer.
very first one, announcer, no call, no show. Let me not call way too late. And then let me, that's a
double whammy. And then let me know way too late, no call, no show. That's also a double whammy. Four,
that's four whammies all together. And then- A lot of whammies. And yeah, it is. And then it's, she's
no longer, her name is Jane. So no longer,
Uh, beyond the Len of easy show for good. So, so it's, uh, really, um, it really hurts the show. So
it really is. Should make some flyers. Well, I tried flyers. I tried flyers. No answer. It's tough.
Very hard. And I know I tried video announcements too.
I already done video announcements and then posted on Facebook and also, um, try my website. We got
no answer either. All those apps, no answers. Just gotta keep at it. So we're trying to keep at it.
So, and then we're at, uh, we're the Lenin Beats show.
It's already still dying right now. So, so we'll hope we'll get, keep it back alive. So if we don't,
the taping session is February 1st, final taping session. So by February 1st or on February 1st. So
if we don't keep the Let It Be's a Show alive. So however, we sure do need to keep the Let It Be's a
Show alive here.
So, yep, indeed. So, what do you think? I think you should keep at it. What about filming bands on the
show? Filming bands, we're still looking into it. So, it might be a possibility. So, we're gonna look
into it. We're also, but, however, we're still gonna have at least two guests on the show.
It does not matter if it's a dance kit or a musical guest or a regular guest at all. It doesn't matter,
but at least two guests on my show. And then, um, also going to, um, look into for a local band. I might
be taping, so.
So in the near future. So it's going to be fine. So and hopefully if if the show keeps it alive, if
we can keep the show alive, we'll move into season six. In the year 2019, very early 2019, we're going
to have let it be the show season five finale.
So probably in late January or somewhere in January. You're not going to keep it going? So we'll have
to see. So right now, so far, no, not going to keep going after the finale because it's already crashing,
already lost eight people.
And it really hurts the show. And the waiting is rude. Waiting is not appropriate. So yeah, I know.
So anyway, I just want to tell you, Mr. Jordan, I also would love to play music together with you.
So that would be absolutely excellent. So what do you think about playing music together? I know I'll
be playing keys. It sounds fun. I can only play the drums. That's what we need. That's what we need.
So at least we do need drummers for sure I know. So I can take breaks on drums however.
So I know I'm going to be actually playing drums on the recording albums, however, when it comes to
playing bands or jam session, I'm going to switch to keyboards. So yep, indeed. So indeed we're going
to make a musical band called Music Town, Lennon B.C.M. Music Town Band.
So yep, do you know any bass players at all? I do. You do. We do need it. Okay. So send them to your
way. So send them to my way. I'm sorry. All right. That would be great. So we're going to have a little
BC show birthday special in episode number 22. Yes. Episode 22.
for the next five episodes. So we will love to have you back as well. So that will be absolutely wonderful.
So anything, I know it's boring about doing graphics. Yeah, it's not always boring, but it's just not
fun to work in an office. Oh, of course not. You go crazy. Right.
And everybody just eats cake all day. I know. I know. All the time. Right. Right. Anyway, so I'm glad
you're here. And of course, before the commercial break. Now, what do you think about your first appearance
on my show, however, at this time? It's been very nice. Yes, indeed. Very well. Indeed.
So I'm glad you're here on my show, your first appearance on my show. And Jordan, I forget your last
name again. Tarantino. Tarantino. That's right. OK, Jordan Tarantino, ladies and gentlemen. So we got
more to come. So we're going to have a commercial break right now at this time. Ladies and gentlemen,
Jordan Tarantino, ladies and gentlemen, on his first appearance on my show. Why don't you stay with
us? We'll be right back after this.
If you did, I'm so happy for you all as well. And those were my two regular guests for tonight. Actually,
new regular guests tonight were Alice Knipstein and Jordan Tarantino. That's what it was. And I'm very
happy to be here in this place. And now, let me introduce episode 18 for season 5. That's going to be
