EXT. BOCA RATON, FLORIDA – DAY
BILL BELICHICK: Grumble grumble have you guys watched the Americans it’s pretty good.
PETE CARROLL: And have the Rand Corporation track my viewing habits? No thanks, man.
ANDY REID: [looks up from bucket of fried chicken]
PETE CARROLL: I do enjoy Mr. Robot, though.
JIM CALDWELL: As do I.
BILL BELICHICK: Grumble grumble FX is where it’s at.
RON RIVERA: Wild card, bitches! [tears off shirt, dives into nearby pond]
SEAN PAYTON: Oh, man, Archer is terrific.
CHUCK PAGANO: A bit unrealistic, though.
TODD BOWLES: Unrealistic? It’s a fucking cartoon!
CHUCK PAGANO: No, no, I mean in its portrayal of the cocaine trade. Trust me, I’ve, um, witnessed a few things.
BILL BELICHICK: Grumble grumble the spy stuff isn’t exactly accurate either.
HUE JACKSON: Rescue me.
PETE CARROLL: Huh?
HUE JACKSON: RESCUE. ME. [glances around, realizes Jimmy Haslam is nearby]…is, uh, is also a very good show.
DOUG PETERSON: [also glancing at Jimmy Haslam] More like American Crime Story, am I right, guys?
BRUCE ARIANS: Sons of Anarchy.
ADAM GASE: Unsupervised.
MIKE MCCARTHY: Running Wilde.
REX RYAN: Hey, come on now. My players might be a little out of control, but they’re basically good kids at heart.
GUS BRADLEY: You’re The Worst.
MIKE MULARKEY: No, YOU’RE the worst! At least my draft picks can survive longer than a week.
JOHN HARBAUGH: My brother and I watched Anger Management for a while, but found it devoid of practical tips.
JAY GRUDEN: Tyrant.
CHIP KELLY: What’d you call me?
JAY GRUDEN: Oh, I wasn’t talking about you [glances at a nearby Dan Snyder].
MIKE MCCOY: It would be best if we were to assemble for the group photo now.
PETE CARROLL AND BILL BELICHICK: [in unison] NO CAMERAS!
The theme for this week’s Request Line is “spycraft”. Whether that means spies, disguises, surveillance, or shadowy government organizations is up to you. I’ll get us started with one of the classics. Have fun!

ÜBER ALLES
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GoA_zY6tqQw
Now I love me some heavy German industrial shit.
Garbage – The World Is Not Enough
https://youtu.be/8C5NLfYdZaE
http://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/123.gif
It was supposedly the first song they ever performed live on teh teevee box, as seen here:
Well, he was a private detective.
SHAFT! You damn right.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEaRCAcfOEQ
A complicated man, and no one understands him but his woman (ppl forget that)
God, this song is terrible, but it seems applicable.
Corey Hart, “Sunglasses at Night”
I assume he was the house band for all Corey-related parties from 1984 – current.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56HSPQHSqEE
Don’t play English version, uh oh!
Soda Stereo – Persiana Americana (in English, weirdly, Venetian Blinds)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTPhjLmSowY
You don’t feel fear, you’re still smiling. I know it excites you to think how far I’ll take this.
Now THAT is quality stalking.
Ani Difranco- Fire Door
“I open the fire door to four lips, none of which were mine, kissing.”
https://youtu.be/NWN9jLPKWV8
You can’t talk about espionage without including “Deep Throat”. You just can’t.
I haven’t heard that in . . . well . . .
/cums
//nostalgically
And like that, Pavlov ruins another pair of pants.
I am embarrassed to say this, but damn you if this song isn’t catchy!
/actually not embarrassed
Flagpole sitta, Harvey Danger
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBgmC_USeoM
Saw them live in a Chicago bar about 10 years ago. Those guys were great, and they didn’t even play this song, the only one that ever got radio airplay.
One of Pete Carroll’s favorites…
I actually rather like this song myself.
The Who – I Can See For Miles
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0iqg2UanEc
Maybe “The Seeker” too? The protagonist in that song is shady as all get out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiSzo82Gbzc
Clash – London Calling
Seems kinda shady-government-ish.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8iSIsSuA9k
Rage Against the Fucking Machine Maaaaaaaan – Guerilla Radio
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaVKYS34Qxc
Pink Floyd – Run Like Hell
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySO-gryuO-c
Inspector Gadget Theme Song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1-YPLp3KqA
I’ve got a cover for that!
Get Smart Theme Song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMf2mlHlwAA
The Untouchables – I Spy for the FBI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHItHKfzW7A
In compliance of CRTC laws, here’s Canada’s favorite musical twin lesbian act, Teagan and Sara!
“My windows look into your bathroom
Where I spend the evening watching
You get yourself clean
And I wonder why it is
That they left this bathroom so unclean”
https://youtu.be/aPDshUprQxo
Wait…is she complaining about her housekeeper?
You know, I *could* post that T.A.T.U. song “Not Gonna Get Us” as a response, but I won’t.
I was out at a bar with some friends a couple of months ago. One of the ladies said “I’m going to Tegan and Sara with my ex. If that isn’t the most lesbian thing I’ve ever heard of I don’t know what is.”
Her twin piped in, “Um, yeah, going with your twin sister.”
I could barely breathe for 10 minutes.
/Continues listening to Ani Difranco
Shit, I forgot how catchy this tune was.
On a related note, these two are incredibly nice and down to earth. You can catch them taking the Skytrain whenever they’re not touring, going wherever. And they don’t mind talking to you. I actually saw one of them taking the train to Rogers Arena to open for Katy Perry. That’s some mighty fine celebrity grit.
How is this not on here yet? HELP ME, TOM CRUISE!
Mission Impossible Theme Song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtyByefOvgQ
Laugh all you want (and you should) but I actually think Limp Bizkit did a pretty fine job with their version:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CBkjBzcSN0
I should hope so, assuming they were paid in nookie, per the norm.
“He did it all for the cookies…”
– the executor of Andy Reid’s estate, shaking his head sadly.
Most underrated ’80s movie of all time? “Spies Like Us”.
Most properly rated theme song of all time? “Spies Like Us” Paul McCartney
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn_L1EN2M_s
Beat me to it! THAT’S GOOD HUSTLE!
Agree on both points and the official video is just awful.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27ATt3FXAUY
Another Way to Die – Alicia Keys and Jack White
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4LpSzKnEtA
Blondie- One Way or Another
https://youtu.be/KXewIR7Y7cc
Just to get it in before Moose.(heh phrasing!)

A View to Kill – Duran Duran
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rV4UqmbzIq4
dB’s Spy in the House of Love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt2BOl7T-jw
If you’re a Bad Religion newbie, this is the song to get started with.
Bad Religion – The Defense
An absolute classic.
Rancid – Time Bomb
Time to break out the funk!
Dammit! Was checking to see if anyone posted this yet.
INXS – Spy of Love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzLgIitm5iM
Gotta get this one in before tWBS shows up.
Green Day – Espionage
Haha…nice.
Rush – The Camera Eye
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LmIOg33oPo
DOUBLE SHOT
Rush – Distant Early Warning
(really, so much of Rush’s oeuvre fits this category, and Rush is awesome)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kJWkmtjoX4
Shit. Sorry for “oeuvre.” It was completely unnecessary.
I don’t think Rush has laid that many eggs. Except for the whole Ayn Rand fascination.
Agree totally; they got a little smart for their own good (looking at you Peart) but I don’t think they give a shit about her any more.
James Bond Theme- Monty Norman
https://youtu.be/Ii1tc493bZM
From arguably the greatest movie soundtrack ever (Until the End of the World): Crime and the City Solution – The Adversary
Talking Heads- Life During Wartime
https://youtu.be/obAtn6I5rbY
Kinks – Destroyer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSbSueq_KSY
A dubious relationship to the theme, but a perfect bridge between this comment and the one below.
Eric Clapton-Wonderful Tonight
https://youtu.be/xl7Hd2r0LOs
Always struck me as stalkerish.
Oh, you want “stalkerish”?
I got your stalkerish right here!
Radiohead – Karma Police
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uYWYWPc9HU
Let’s DOUBLE SHOT this up…
Radiohead – Paranoid Android
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPLEbAVjiLA
TRIPLE SHOT
Wolf at the Door
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvBPCm25z4I
FUCK IT! QUADRUPLE SHOT!
Burn the Witch is pretty covert government organization-y.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yI2oS2hoL0k
They Might Be Giants- Spy
https://youtu.be/Su1GPbkFEiw
This seems appropriate/annoying, kinda like Mike McCoy:
Holy shit that video is…
I don’t know.
I’m terrified by the thought of Keith with a gun.
But the whole Mick thing…?
Oh, I can do this.
