## Episode Summary

We were joined this week by Howell Dawdy of the Howell Dawdy's Fast Track podcast to discuss lyrics, Teejayx6 and compose an original song: The Trigger Man's Child...

## Notable Events

* Globe Hell Songwriters Workshop
* Josiah and Drew performed this episode in conjunction with Howell Dawdy from his podcast, *Howell Dawdy's Fast Track Podcast*.
* Josiah announced that he and Drew had the idea for *Howell Dawdy's Fast Track Podcast* about two years ago.
	+ Note: This echoes a similar refrain in Episode 72: WWideas.
* Josiah and Drew announced that while *Howell Dawdy's Fast Track Podcast* involves writing a song in a half hour, they would spend this episode writing a song in an hour.
* Josiah told a rabbit joke.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew watched a video called "Elton John on Meeting Bernie Taupin and Their Songwriting Process" about how Sir Elton John tells Howard how he met Bernie Taupin and explains their songwriting process.
* From 9:54 to 9:56, Josiah and Howell Dawdy disappeared from view.
* Josiah revealed that Elton John's people have been contacting them every week but since they're rockers they're not interested in his piano stuff.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew watched a video called "Teejayx6 "Swipe Story" Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified" about how Teejayx6’s “Swipe Story” has found a strong audience with more than 1 million YouTube views to date.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew discussed scams.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew discussed *Mr. Robot*.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew watched a video called "Kasher Quon and Teejayx6 going bar for bar in the studio" about a real session of Kasher Quon and Teejayx6 rapping before they broke up.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew watched a video called "Teejayx6- T-Rex ( full song)" about the song *T-Rex* by Teejayx6.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew discussed their wish for Teejayx6 to take Nate Ruess for all that he's worth. They were free to talk about this topic in this episode because Nate Ruess unsubscribed from the Globe Hell Patreon.
* Drew displayed his new cat Duck. Josiah and Howell Dawdy discussed how they weren't confident that Duck really existed and Josiah expressed his belief that anytime Drew showed Duck to the camera, he probably did it in post.
* Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew wrote a song called *The Triggerman's Child*. The songwriting process went as follows:
	+ Drew revealed that they would be writing a song during this episode about getting guns off the streets by either making guns bigger so that kids can't hold them, or by shrinking children.
	+ Josiah voted in favor of making the song about how they should give kids guns, because a kid shooting a gun is the closest we get to someone not shooting a gun.
	+ Howell Dawdy voted in favor of having one large gun.
	+ Josiah then wrote an original melody for his song called *One Gun* on the spot with the following lyrics: "One gun / sisters, brothers / love is a weapon / love, the higher".
	+ Howell Dawdy then proposed an idea where the gun is so big that the whole country has to come together and decide to use it, or even that it has small cavities that only a child can fit into and so once enough children climb in the gun's cavities then they can shoot the gun; he felt that this will make it so you have to have the innocence of a child to fire the gun but it will have the added benefit of protecting all children from being in the gun's path because they will be safely ensconced within the gun itself.
	+ Drew proposed a song name of *Children, Get In The Gun*.
	+ Howell Dawdy preferred the title to be *One Gone* or *G-One*.
	+ Josiah voted in favor of putting "Children, Get In The Gun" in parentheses after whatever the title ends up being, such as *One Gun (Children, Get In)*.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested putting the parentheses before so that it was *(Children Get In The) One Gun*.
	+ Josiah suggested that the gun cannot be fired until the children are in it but they are not the ones firing it, simply the ones deciding where it's aimed and an adult has to pull the trigger.
	+ Howell Dawdy and Drew agreed with this. Howell Dawdy further suggested that this would mean that the children would not need to live with the burden of having pulled the trigger.
	+ Josiah took this further in that actually no one would have to live with the burden.
	+ Howell Dawdy compared this to a firing squad situation.
	+ Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew pondered whether to hear Drew's music first, or to write the lyrics first. They had been considering watching a video called "Songwriting Tips: The Power Of 6 Word Stories // Episode 27" but ultimately decided against it in favor of hearing Drew's music and getting into it.
	+ Drew shared his screen and audio with Josiah and Howell Dawdy. He then played his first song option, which was called *Sexy*.
	+ Josiah pointed out that this was a song about children.
	+ Drew laughed this off and said to ignore the song title.
	+ Josiah liked this song option and compared it to a Grimes song. He, Howell Dawdy, and Drew improvised some lyrics over the top: "Children, get in the gun".
	+ Josiah expressed his fear that they had already built a lot of lore to fit into the song: they don't want all the guns, and they're possibly melting all of the guns.
	+ Drew suggested that they don't have to mention that.
	+ Howell Dawdy said it could be an imagined scenario where we're already there.
	+ Josiah expounded on this to say that the listener will already know that there is only one gun left and so the song should make people feel like they're already along for the ride. He suggested the inclusion of the line: "As you all know, there's only one gun". This will make people think, 'Oh, do -- Oh, I guess I did know that already,' because it's already been established that there's only one gun.
	+ Drew then played his second song option, which was called *Gun*. Josiah felt this would already be a better title for this song but Drew said that was not necessarily true. Drew also felt this song example felt a little slow. Josiah disagreed, asking whether the song is to be instructional or for a night on the town, and saying this song example was more instructional. Drew also said it was more instructional sounding.
	+ Josiah freestyled some lyrics, in keeping with the instructional vibe: "As we all know / there's one gun / one gun for all to chew".
	+ Howell Dawdy said he liked the synth, saying it sounded like Yaz.
	+ Josiah said he thought this was the best song example. Howell Dawdy agreed, saying that the matching song title of *Gun* only helps make its case.
	+ Drew then played his third song option, which has gun sound effects, though he said it might be too violent.
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy felt that this song option had too many gunshots for a song about how there is only one gun.
	+ Josiah said there should be only one gunshot at the end, with the sound of children cheering.
	+ Howell Dawdy asked if the gun only holds one bullet.
	+ Drew said it should be one big bullet.
	+ Josiah asked how big the bullet is.
	+ Drew said it would be huge and proportional the size of the gun.
	+ Howell Dawdy felt that the bullet should be the size of a child.
	+ Josiah said the one gun should have some heft and, for it to be considered serious, he thought that the bullet should contain one child inside of it, though he expected for Drew and Howell Dawdy to not necessarily like this idea. He further expressed that there has to be some cost.
	+ Howell Dawdy felt this was very philosophical and proposed that perhaps it is the child of the person pulling the trigger, referring to that child as "The Triggerman's Child".
	+ Josiah and Drew pounced on the term and they all agreed it would be the song title.
	+ Howell Dawdy felt that *The Triggerman's Child* sounded to him like a Nick Cave song.
	+ With that, Drew established that they would be moving forward with song option 2 (previously titled *Gun*) and it would now be called *The Triggerman's Child*. Drew expressed his feeling that since listeners have already heard the episode up until this point, they don't need much lore in the lyrics, and it can instead be a story song about The Triggerman's Child.
	+ Howell Dawdy felt that they may not even need many lyrics since listeners have already heard all of this information as preamble to the song itself. He said he has had this thought many times on his podcast, *Howell Dawdy's Fast Track Podcast*, where he could just sprinkle some notes at the end of the episode and the episode itself could be the song they wrote, technically.
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed that Howell Dawdy's example would still technically qualify as a song, but felt that this particular song should have some lyrics and singing.
	+ Josiah improvised a some lyrics: "One gun".
	+ Drew improvised a melody along with the following lyrics: "The Triggerman's Child".
	+ Josiah added some additional freestyled melody and lyrics: "The Triggerman's Child / so meek and so mild," and expressed his desire to make the song sad about how the Triggerman doesn't know what child is going to be in the bullet, and he's hoping it's going to be a brat instead of his child who is so meek and so mild.
	+ Drew and Howell Dawdy agreed with this. Drew began writing these lyrics down.
	+ Josiah added some additional lyrics: "One shot".
	+ Howell Dawdy added to this: "One shot / it's all he's got". He then further established that the song would be describing The Triggerman here.
	+ Josiah wanted to add another line that rhymes with 'child'.
	+ Drew suggested rhyming 'child' with 'child' with the lyrics: "My only child".
	+ Howell Dawdy asked if "One gun" would be said by someone in the background.
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed. Josiah continued with the following lyrical idea: "One shot / The Triggerman's wild".
	+ Drew continued with his previous idea of rhyming 'child' with 'child' by saying "My only child," so that The Triggerman is contemplating whether this act of violence is worth putting his child inside of a bullet.
	+ Howell Dawdy agreed and suggested the following lyrics: "The Triggerman's Child / so meek and so mild / I only have one child," and then considered pulling up RhymeZone.
	+ Josiah, suddenly hit with a bolt of inspiration, had the idea that, instead of saying "One shot," the second time, they say, "One son".
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested they say, "One son is all I've got," and then rhyme that with "shot".
	+ Josiah suggested the lyrics could be, "One son / The Triggerman smiled".
	+ Howell Dawdy asked why The Triggerman would smile.
	+ Josiah did not know the answer to that question and said he was just following his process. He thought maybe The Triggerman could be smiling because he was thinking of his son and how much he hopes it is not him who is put in the bullet.
	+ Howell Dawdy and Drew expressed their confusion at this.
	+ Josiah suggested that maybe the trigger could still be just like a normal size gun trigger.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested that perhaps the trigger could be like an elevator button that you press. He then read off some words that rhyme with "child", including "beguiled", which they all agreed they should hang onto for later. Another word he hit on was "undefiled", since it matches with the reason for putting all the children inside of the gun in the first place: to preserve their innocence.
	+ Josiah expressed his feeling that they had just launched a YA series with this idea.
	+ Drew proposed the following lyrics: "One son is all I've got / This giant gun only shoots one shot".
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy wholeheartedly agreed with these lyrics. Howell Dawdy then suggested they jump back to say "beguiled".
	+ Josiah asked what "beguiled" means.
	+ Howell Dawdy explained that it means "enthralled; enraptured".
	+ Josiah said it was a really good word and then referenced the Sofia Coppola movie, *The Beguiled*.
	+ Drew said it's like Guile from *Street Fighter*.
	+ Josiah read the following definition of the word: "charm or enchant someone; sometimes in a deceptive way".
	+ Howell Dawdy explained that Sofia Coppola's film *The Beguiled* is actually a remake of a 70's film with Clint Eastwood in it and his version is very very good.
	+ Josiah remarked that Clint Eastwood likes gun. Drew agreed.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested some lyrics about how Clint Eastwood was in *The Beguiled*.
	+ Josiah said he liked to say the word 'beguiled'. He went on to say that they needed to include some lyrics about how it was a necessary action to create this one gun and it had to be done.
	+ Howell Dawdy agreed with that sentiment and expressed that the word 'done' is how they should do it, since it rhymes with 'gun'. He also expressed his wish to see the lyrics sheet Drew was writing, though this wish went in vain. He went on to suggest that they have the one little verse that they already wrote about The Triggerman's Child being so meek and so mild, followed by the little verse about how The Triggerman only has one son and one shot, then they go back to something about how The Triggerman's Child has got him beguiled or something. He improvised the following lyrics, and added they were not good: "So young / got me beguiled".
	+ Drew asked if he was talking about including the beguiled line at the end of the first verse section.
	+ Howell Dawdy reiterated his wish to see the lyrics sheet that Drew was writing and sharing with the viewers.
	+ Josiah expressed his feeling that the song was pretty much done and ready to be mastered.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested that "Pretty much done / one gun" could be another line that they put in the song somewhere. He went on to say "But-ton" could be another lyric if the one gun has a button instead of a trigger.
	+ Josiah asked about the possibility that, in this world, there is a one-child rule and so everyone only has one son, or even one daughter. He asked then if daughters allowed in the gun.
	+ Drew and Howell Dawdy answered in the affirmative.
	+ At this point, Drew had successfully managed to share the lyrics sheet he was writing with both Josiah and Howell Dawdy. However, the live document they were then able to edit was not immediately displayed to viewers.
	+ Drew accused Josiah of immediately writing the word "porno" in the lyrics sheet they were creating together because he saw Josiah's name next to the word. Josiah hotly denied this, saying he had *just* seen Drew's name right beside that word. Drew said that was not true, but Josiah took a screenshot of Drew's name.
	+ Howell Dawdy continued to think about the lyrics, reading out what they had so far.
	+ Josiah expressed his confusion as to why Drew wrote the word "porno" in the lyrics sheet.
	+ Drew repeated his earlier claim that it was in fact Josiah who wrote the word "porno".
	+ Josiah suggested the possibility of keeping the word "porno".
	+ Drew felt differently and deleted it.
	+ Josiah suggested they invite a stranger into the lyrics session so that person can finish it for them. He asked how much time they had left in the hour to finish the song.
	+ Drew revealed that they had one hour left.
	+ Josiah expressed his feeling that they want to make sure the song is done, unlike some of the other songwriting podcasts.
		- Note: It is currently unknown what other songwriting podcasts Josiah was referring to.
	+ Drew agreed, saying that they could go over time, as needed.
	+ Howell Dawdy continued looking at rhyming words, including "ne'er defiled", which is one thing you could say about a child, in a poetic way. He offered some other suggestions: "The child's mind is undefiled", and "So pure and undefiled".
	+ Josiah expressed his feeling that talking about whether or not a child has been defiled is maybe a little bit too heavy for this song, and wanted to refocus on sticking to shooting children as bullets.
	+ Howell Dawdy read some more rhyming words.
	+ Josiah asked what they were trying to rhyme.
	+ Howell Dawdy replied that they were trying to rhyme something with "The Triggerman's Child". He offered that they consider going a different route since this doesn't seem to be working. He was hoping to navigate to the word "beguiled" somehow since it's such a nice word, but wasn't sure how they would get there logically anyway, because it's not the child that's beguiled, but rather is you that is charmed by the child. He suggested they simply get rid of it.
	+ Josiah proffered that, at the end of the song, they use the lyrics: "The Triggerman smiled / he was feeling beguiled," which will be the end, meaning they just needed to now figure out why he smiled.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested that The Triggerman would have smiled because the bullet's contents were not his child.
	+ Drew agreed, suggesting that The Triggerman's son runs out of the gun at the end.
	+ Howell Dawdy agreed with this idea. Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew brainstormed the rest of the line together, as follows: "The Triggerman smiled / he was feeling beguiled / because the bullet he fired / was another's child".
	+ Howell Dawdy expressed his feeling that this made The Triggerman seem like more of an asshole than they had been making him up to this point since he smiled that it was someone else's child who was in the bullet.
	+ Josiah replied that he is a gun shooter.
	+ Howell Dawdy supposed that it works.
	+ Josiah suggested an ironic twist at the end of the song that, despite all of that happening, the bullet did end up hitting and killing The Triggerman's wife.
	+ Drew fixed the display screen so that viewers could actually see the lyrics sheet that he and Josiah and Howell Dawdy were editing together.
	+ Howell Dawdy and Drew mulled over Josiah's idea, considering the implications of the fact that the one gun had been pointed at The Triggerman's wife the whole time.
	+ Josiah wrote the following line at the end of the song, noting also that it would be spoken word: "Unfortunately the bullet shot and killed his wife. The love of his life."
	+ Drew felt unsure about this line because it was giving mixed messages because they were trying to get rid of guns.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested the line could be: "But it turned out that was the worst day of his life, because unfortunately the bullet shot and killed his wife." This, in his telling, would make it clear that it ended up being the worst day of The Triggerman's life.
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed.
	+ Drew suggested the lyric could be: "That turned out to be the worst day of his life; the bullet went off course and hit his wife."
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy disagreed with Drew's idea because the point is that the children are deciding where the one gun is aimed. Howell Dawdy proposed that maybe the one gun is behind a door. Josiah mentioned that the point is that if you shoot a gun then you're still going to probably kill your wife.
	+ Drew disagreed with Josiah's logic, saying it wouldn't necessarily be your wife but you still might hurt somebody.
	+ Howell Dawdy proposed the lyrics: "The bullet met its mark, and its mark was his wife". He felt that this told the whole story because that says that someone was aiming specifically at her, plus it has a great sci-fi ironic twist to it.
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed with this idea. Drew suggested that The Triggerman's wife's name is Mark.
	+ Howell Dawdy agreed and suggested the lyrics: "Because her name was Mark. And in the future, women are named Mark".
	+ Josiah interjected to say that men are named Mindy in the future. This would make it like the TV show *Mark & Mindy*.
	+ Drew said it's *Mork & Mindy*.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested adding at the end that The Triggerman's name is Mindy with the lyrics: "His name, by the way, was Mindy. It was windy". This would then allow them to take the song in a whole nother direction.
	+ Josiah suggested the lyrics: "But guess what else... she was cheating on him".
	+ Drew suggested the lyrics: "And the name of The Triggerman is your dad.
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy asked if this meant The Triggerman was the listeners' dad.
	+ Drew replied in the affirmative, saying it's like a universal thing.
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy pondered the implications of this idea.
	+ Josiah added the lyrics to the end of his previous line: "she was cheating on him with a grown milf", just to add to the lore.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested the lyrics: "And the name of that Milf was your dad".
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed with these lyrics.
	+ Howell Dawdy thought this might be a little confusing because Your Dad could be a future name.
	+ Josiah suggested they make it even more confusing by making the name look like "Yourdad", which makes it look even more like a future name.
	+ Howell Dawdy pointed out that the name Yourdad is like Yoda. He then posited that perhaps Baby Yoda is short for "Yourdad" and asked if Josiah and Drew had ever thought of that.
	+ Josiah and Drew considered the implications of that possibility. Drew pointed out that Yoda is indeed very wise, much like a lot of dads.
	+ With this, Josiah asked if they were done writing the song, as he felt these lyrics had everything.
	+ Drew asked if they wanted to listen to his backing track again.
	+ Howell Dawdy felt they needed another verse in between the second verse and the final verse where they perhaps get into the mind of The Triggerman.
	+ Josiah added the lyrics: "I am the Triggerman".
	+ Drew asked if this line is The Child speaking. He then corrected himself upon realizing it is The Triggerman.
	+ Howell Dawdy clarified that it is indeed The Triggerman speaking. He suggested some lyrics along the lines of The Triggerman taking his job seriously.
	+ Josiah added the lyrics: "But I'm not a bigger man / I need to shoot gun", because he's not bigger than conflict and he still falls for conflict.
	+ Drew thought this idea was great, but changed it to: "But I'm not *the* bigger man".
	+ Josiah agreed with this. He then suggested the lyrics: "I need to shoot gun for fun".
	+ Drew interjected to say something about how it was the only way The Triggerman can do something.
	+ Josiah, struck with inspiration, interrupted Drew to add the lyrics: "I need to shoot gun / toxic mascu-lun".
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested that they instead make the lyrics: "I'm toxic and mascu-lun".
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed with this idea. Josiah said they then need to include an actual gunshot sound effect, with which Drew also agreed.
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested adding some lyrics along the lines of: "It's not up to me, though / it's up to the kids".
	+ Drew agreed with this idea.
	+ Howell Dawdy continued the lyrics with "which way", but was interrupted by Josiah saying "...the bullet skids" before he could finish. Howell Dawdy laughed at this idea because he hates the word "skids" and suggested they say "which way the bullet will whiz" instead. He then changed this full line of lyrics to: "It's not up to me, it's up to the kids / which way the giant bullet will whiz".
	+ Drew suggested they make the lyrics: "the child-sized bullet".
	+ Howell Dawdy suggested they make the lyrics: "kid-filled bullet" or the "kid-stuffed bullet".
	+ Josiah suggested they make the lyrics: "the giant boy bullet", even though it is not necessarily a boy, simply because he likes the term 'boy bullet' since it has a nice alliteration to it.
	+ Howell Dawdy pointed out that The Triggerman does not yet know whether it's a boy or a girl in the bullet.
	+ Drew agreed with this line of thinking.
	+ Josiah suggested, then, that they just say the lyrics: "Of course, it could be a girl, but I like how it sounds".
	+ Howell Dawdy pointed out that Josiah is now literally The Triggerman.
	+ Josiah responded that one must become The Triggerman to write; one must think like The Triggerman. He then asked why it is a Trigger*man*.
	+ Howell Dawdy responded that it is because they had originally said 'The Triggerman's Child'.
	+ Drew added that it is simply such a good title.
	+ Howell Dawdy agreed that it is such a good title, though noted that it is certainly gendered, but 'Triggerperson's Child' simply doesn't have the same rhythm to it that 'Triggerman' does. He felt that this is why so much of music is gendered.
	+ Josiah expressed his feeling that they were, in fact, addressing the toxic mascu-lun in it. He went on to say that there could be a Triggerwoman but you've never heard of it because it's never happened because it never would and it's impossible.
	+ Howell Dawdy responded that he thought a woman would be certainly smart and strong enough to enter the enormous gun and expressed that he was not sure what Josiah was trying to say.
	+ Josiah said a Triggerwoman would choose not to shoot the one gun because she doesn't have this toxic mascu-lun.
	+ Drew then said "mascu-lon".
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy then realized that 'mascu-lun' sounds like Musk Elon. Howell Dawdy expressed a notable lack of surprise at the revelation that it was Elon Musk who had designed the one gun. Josiah then changed the associated toxic mascu-lun lyrics to: "Toxic Musk Elon-ity". Josiah and Howell Dawdy felt that this could be another song or episode.
	+ Josiah asked if they should write a whole album in this recording session.
	+ Drew was dubious about whether they could.
	+ Josiah asked whether they were done.
	+ Howell Dawdy wanted to go back to justify the line about how The Triggerman acknowledges there could be a girl in the bullet but he likes the way that 'boy bullet' sounds. He suggested something that rhymes with 'sounds', like: "This gun fires children as its rounds".
	+ Josiah and Drew agreed with this idea.
	+ With this, Howell Dawdy was comfortable calling the song finished.
	+ Josiah agreed that they had said everything they needed to say.
	+ Drew agreed as well and asked again if they should listen to the song backing and imagine how the lyrics would go.
	+ Josiah and Howell Dawdy agreed. Howell Dawdy suggested that Josiah try singing it and lay down a track.
	+ Josiah suggested they all try it together like the scam rappers.
	+ Drew wanted to be the shout-y guy who says "One gun" but asked where he should do it in the beat.
	+ Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew then ran through the song with an improvised melody with ad libs of "One gun" and "One son" intermittently throughout. Josiah suggested that Howell Dawdy come in for a spoken word verse. Then Drew sang the next verse in a high voice. Josiah provided backing vocals for Drew. Howell Dawdy then performed the final verse spoken word as well. Then Josiah and Drew continued to ad lib words from the song over the outro of the song.
	+ With this, Josiah, Howell Dawdy, and Drew changed the world again.
	+ The final lyrics for *The Triggerman's Child*, as written, are as follows:
		- > One Gun
		> The Trigger Mans Child
		> So meek and so mild
		>
		> One son is all I've got
		> This giant gun only shoots one shot
		>
		> I am the trigger man
		> But I'm not the bigger man
		> I need to shoot gun
		> I'm toxic and masculine
		>
		> Its not up to me its up to the kids
		> Which way the giant boy bullet will whiz
		> Of course it could be a girl
		> But I like how it sounds
		> This gun fires children as its rounds
		>
		> The trigger man smiled
		> He was feeling beguiled
		> Because the bullet he fired
		> Was another's child
		>
		> But then that turned out to be the worst day of his life
		> Unfortunately the bullet met its mark and its mark was his wife
		> Because in the future women are named mark
		>
		> But guess what else... she was cheating on him with a grown milk.
		> And the name of the Milf was Yourdad.
		>
		>

			* *Note: Ad libs are not included in the lyrics above.*
* Howell Dawdy plugged some things about himself, regarding other podcasts and things he is tweeting. He discussed the song he made on *Howell Dawdy's Fast Track Podcast* with Drew about Grogu, as well as the bonus episode he made with Josiah about a parody of *Uptown Funk* by Mark Ronson that was about Godspeed You! Black Emperor's 2021 album.
* Josiah asked Drew why he never asks him to plug anything at the end of episodes. Drew revealed that the reason for his omission is because Josiah goes on other podcasts without telling Drew beforehand. Josiah grew immediately irate before Drew recanted and admitted to that being but a joke.

* "Well, we're addressing the toxic mascu-lun in it, as well, and I think that's what -- I mean, women *could* -- there *could* be a Triggerwoman but you've never heard of it cause it's never happened cause it never would. It's impossible!"
* [In response to Howell Dawdy saying that a woman is certainly strong and smart enough to shoot the one large gun] "She would choose not to, because she would -- she doesn't have this uh, uh toxic mascu-lun. Gun. Mask Elon. Toxic Musk Elon!"
* [On the topic of the parody of *Uptown Funk* by Mark Ronson that he made with Howell Dawdy on his podcast, *Howell Dawdy's Fast Track Podcast*] "Yeah, it's probably the most embarrassing thing I've ever done. Including uh this episode we've just done."

### Drew

* "Globe Hello."
* "Sir, uh -- bartender! There's a titty in my beer!"
* "Waiter! Why is a titty in my beer?"
* "There's a lactating boob in my beer."
* "OK, Fauci."
* "Duck, you gotta settle down, dude. Well, Duck's just going crazy."
* "One of the big things on our show is size-play. Um things -- uh and it's come up a lot recently. Um so one thing I thought we could do something about getting guns off the street and -- or like, out of the hands of kids. And the way we do that is by making guns even bigger so that kids aren't able to hold them, *or* that we make kids smaller. Because Josiah and I have established that we do have the means and the ability to shrink people. We don't need to get into what I was trying to do because a lot -- it got a lot of uh backlash."
* "Do you wanna make the song about how we should give kids guns?"
* "And her name was Mark."

### Howell Dawdy

* "Globe Howell is uh -- is my name, actually. Today it's Globe Howell Dawdy."
* "Now, if you guys took your show in more of a Howard Stern direction, and you did much more shock jocking, maybe you, you know -- maybe you had people mud wrestling uh on the Disc-- I guess not in the studio, but on the Discord, whatever, how long do you think it would take for you to interview Elton John with that path?"
* [In response to Drew's question about whether they want to make the song about how they should give kids guns] "*I* don't."
* "All right, I think that's more gunshots than we want."
* "The song could be a one-hour conversation with a beat at the end of it."
* "'Ne'er defiled' is one thing you could say about a child, right? They've uh -- And that's a poetic way to say it. But, um, 'the child's mind is undefiled', 'so pure and undefiled'."
* "There's only one 'r' in 'mark', if I remember correctly."
* "Because her name was Mark. And in the future, women are named Mark."
* "Now, Josiah, you *like* the phrase 'boy bullet'."
* [In response to Josiah saying you've never heard of a Triggerwoman because it's never happened because it never would and it's impossible] "Oh, I think a woman would be certainly smart and strong enough to enter the enormous gun. Uh, I'm not sure what you're saying there."

## Trivia

* This is the third episode that is primarily about writing a song during the recording of the episode, after Episode 27: Why Do I Have Blue Eyes? and Episode 72: WWideas, though it is the first such Patreon episode.
* This is the second episode to be released between an Episode 79 and an Episode 80, after Globehell Hype House, since there are two episodes titled Episode 79: Episode 79: Quiet Reflections and Episode 79: Verified People.
* This episode has two notably different episode titles between its audio and video formats. The audio version is titled "The Triggerman's Child", while the video version is titled "The Trigger Man's Child".
