0:20
one that was murdered. We
0:24

0:27
new stories as soon as we handle
0:29
this car misadventure but in the
0:31
meantime, we're going to buy a little time today to take
0:33
care of some of that trashy business and
0:36
while doing so, I'm feeling season 22 episode
0:38
13. This
0:40
one is not one classic but
0:43
two classics in one episode. We're going
0:45
to do a little double up cuddle
0:47
up. Today I got Fleetwood
0:49
Mac and Stevie Nicks covered by
0:51
the both of us over
0:54
seasons edited and trashily smashed. We're
0:56
taking Fleetwood Mac from season two
0:59
all the way back from April of 2019 and Stevie Nicks
1:03
is from season eight in October of 2020.
1:07

across seasons. We think
1:14
new and long time listeners will enjoy
1:16
this one. Yeah, these episodes continue
1:19
to be fan favorites across the
1:21
seasons and really contain everything you
1:23
could wish for in marital misadventure
1:26
with all the connections in between and
1:28
so many trashy inside origin jokes, seven
1:30
mile mic and put on your pants
1:33
too. It is kind of
1:35
a magical connection through trashy. We will catch
1:37
up with our business at the end of
1:39
the episode as I am not going to
1:41
stand in the way of the goddess Stevie
1:44

2:59
1977 Rumors
3:03
Oh Myths legends it all
3:05
in rumors. Oh my god such a good album
3:08
Okay, for starters Fleetwood Mac began life
3:10
as a blues band that formed in London in 1967
3:14
This is not the Fleetwood Mac we care about
3:17
It is hey not yet that Fleetwood
3:19
Mac You know as a girl who
3:21
actually does care about that particular Fleetwood
3:23
Mac before the infusion of Buckingham, Nick's
3:25
I'm not gonna offend any listeners. Hey
3:28
UK your Fleetwood Mac is cool, too
3:31
Hey, they wrote black magic woman. They did
3:33
a lot of good album so many good
3:35
albums a different kind of
3:37
band sure So they were a blues
3:39
band and the initial lineup was front
3:42
man Peter Green guitar vocals
3:44
songwriting guitarist Jeremy Spencer drummer
3:46
Mc Fleetwood bassist John
3:48
McVie or As
3:51
we like to say Fleetwood Mac
3:54
What could go wrong this early band
3:56

4:01
Eight John. Wick be married a
4:03
blue singer and pianist named Christie

4:08
shack you. Christine
4:10
Mcvie. I love
4:12
her. Maiden name's perfect. It's perfect. It's
4:14
perfect percent. By Nineteen Seventy,
4:16
Peter Green was in a mental
4:18
health declined. He had over indulged
4:20
on Lsd at a commune. And.
4:23
That may have contributed to the onset
4:25
of Schizophrenia, or perhaps it just made
4:27
the onset of Schizophrenia more apparent. But.
4:30
In any case, Green left the band
4:32
and Nineteen Seventy. Christine. Mcvie Hopson
4:34
to sell and on vocals keys songwriting
4:36
well as right of they're just some
4:39
chicken sec. Yep Yep! Yep

4:45
this Model Jenny Boyd. Why?
4:48
It after a five year on again
4:50
off again romance. Jenny Boyd As the
4:52
younger sister of Pattie Boyd, the wife
4:54
of beetle George Harrison and later the
4:57
wife of Eric Clapton. That.
4:59
Is entirely true. Featured in
5:01
a Season One Story of
5:04
Yours as Jennifer. The tune.
5:06
Of her. My Donovan was written about
5:08

Although they never dated, she was apparently
5:12
just. You. Know. Muse.
5:15
A of said it's a tough url to
5:17
tough role in the world. Will.
5:19
It denies or it. And sixty with whatever odds
5:22
you are in nineteen seventy one. There
5:24
and Los Angeles I believe. Guitarist. Your
5:26
Me Spencer tells the band he's
5:29
gonna run out gov a magazine
5:31
and never comes back. Why words?
5:33
The ban looked for days and
5:35
presumably had notified authorities. Whatever. And
5:38
since this is a true crime podcast, His.
5:40
Body was eventually found under a dumpster.
5:42
No, I'm kidding. He had joined a
5:45
call oh my God. and he is
5:47
still affiliated with them. Really? And.
5:49
This is not a true crime podcasting know
5:51
I've got true crime and of I'm having
5:54
of I was i thought were taken a
5:56
surprise know Jeremy Spencer he's still works around
5:58
us and yeah yeah. Like the
6:00
family, they were the children of God the
6:02
time. Anyways, been here a budget but he's
6:05
diesel performing musician and he still part of
6:07
this. You know, cause I handle it as
6:09
subtitle for both of our stories. Are
6:11
sometimes. Drugs are not a healthy life
6:14
choice that. Colts. Are either
6:16
we're. Probably. To call it
6:18
was better anyway. Wow! I am in.
6:21
You know what? you? you be the judge. Okay,
6:23
there's a whole lot of lineup changes that are
6:25
coming here and I'm just gonna try to zoom through
6:27
him to get to the good stuff. Saturday Spencer gets
6:29
replaced. Which. Changes the band's
6:32
sound again. You. Know another
6:34
guitar player gets fired because he keeps
6:36
having these like alcohol fuelled tantrums. So.
6:39
They have this like constantly shifting line
6:41
up for. Like. Several years, three
6:43
more albums. One.
6:45
Of the guitar players that they bring and
6:48
has an affair with Jenny Boyd oh well
6:50
the bans on you are so that leads
6:52
to the end of the to or and
6:54
the did gets fired obviously be aches. And.
6:57
At this point. Things. Get
6:59
like really weird that know
7:01
know things are weird because.
7:04
Okay, so Fleetwood Mac was named by
7:06
Peter Green. For. Mix Fleetwood
7:08
and John Wick. see. Well.
7:11
The manager of the band Clifford Davis
7:13
says no no I on that name,
7:15
that's mine. Own. So he forms a new
7:18
Fleetwood Mac and decides to send them on
7:20
see where I think in the States. And
7:22
is what he tells those musicians the like
7:25
oh it's cool Mick Fleetwood will be along
7:27
for later date like. But
7:29
here that is why you're the new
7:31
Fleetwood Mac are sitting. We know he
7:33
gets worse. I've never heard the so
7:35
so. Fleetwood Mac's tour manager shows up
7:37
to manage Fleetwood Mac's to or and
7:40
is like what you really are and
7:42
I know mess. Is
7:44
Not Fleetwood Mac's This is not a
7:46
bad I'm looking for. Oh, he hides
7:49
Fleetwood Mac's during gear. In.
7:51
An attempt to sabotage this effort? And
7:54
us is this. Is a totally true the
7:56
as. So
7:58
I'm not sure if it's. Two were, didn't
8:00
happen or if it did, but
8:02
anyway, like obviously, McFleetwood never joined
8:05
Alt, Fleetwood Mac on the road. Like
8:08
these guys, I think, didn't know
8:10
they were being defrauded and there
8:13
were lawsuits on two continents and-
8:15
How long was Clifford Davis? Their
8:17
manager. That was the end of-
8:19
Yeah. Yeah. When
8:23
it did, it all. I think history will show that McFleetwood
8:25
was the manager of the band for the rest of time.
8:28
In any case, in- Holy
8:31
smokes. Yeah, right? Right?
8:34
That time that Clifford Davis almost stole Fleetwood Mac?
8:37
That is amazing. In
8:40
74, to get
8:43
clear of this debacle and to deal
8:45
with the fact that, again, their sound
8:48
was constantly changing because of this churn.
8:51
And so their popularity had kind of waned in
8:53
the UK, but they're all still
8:55
really young. I mean, they're all under 30 at this
8:57
point. So they're not over the- They can use it.
9:00
Have fun. It's cool. They
9:02
decided to move to California. So it's McFleetwood,
9:04
the McVees, and there is another one of
9:06
the short termers was still in the band
9:08
at the time. So they-
9:11
The short termers happening. That's the scene.
9:13
How happening? Yeah. Well,
9:15
the short termer bails pretty soon
9:17
after. So McFleetwood
9:19
does what McFleetwood does and decides to
9:21
hit the ground running, go find some
9:23
new talent and just keep plowing through
9:26
his Fleetwood Mac. That's what he has
9:28
done since 1967 to this very day.
9:33
You'll never break the chain. Funny.
9:36
Funny. Unless you are- The
9:39
chain? Lindy Buckingham. Oh. All
9:41
right. So
9:46
at a Los Angeles recording studio, Mick was
9:48
scouting for- We need to play
9:50
the record. The producer he was
9:53
talking to played him some songs from a record
9:55
he'd recently made by a group called Buckingham Knicks.
9:57
Yeah. They were a big deal. They
10:01
were a small deal, but they
10:03
did what they did well enough to get
10:05
noticed. And they had opened for Janis
10:08
Joplin and maybe Jimi
10:10
Hendrix. They had had some
10:12
– that may have been a previous band, but
10:15
yeah, I mean they were real. They were really
10:17
– they knew what they wanted to do. Hey,
10:20
Dad, I've got your Buckingham Nicks
10:22
album if you're ever looking for
10:24
it. Just an addendum from
10:26
1973. That album covers hot. Okay,
10:32
so they were a duet. The two had
10:34
met in high school. Lindsey
10:36
Buckingham was just 16 when they started
10:38
seeing each other and playing music together.
10:40
Young love. Which I
10:42
don't think he ever recovered from. So after leading
10:44
a band called Fritz for a few years, they
10:47
landed a deal with Polydor Records. In
10:49
1973, they released Buckingham Nicks,
10:51
which kind of went nowhere but
10:54
also led to this intro with Mc Fleetwood. That's it.
10:56
You do your best. You get noticed. Let
10:58
him win the next thing. December 31,
11:00
1974, Mc Fleetwood calls Lindsey Buckingham. I keep
11:02
wanting to say Lindsey Graham, so you're going
11:05
to have to correct me if I do
11:07
that because these are very different people and
11:09
also not so much. Yeah,
11:11
old Linz. I got some
11:14
feelings. Mc Fleetwood calls Lindsey Buckingham and
11:16
asks him to join Fleetwood Mac, and
11:18
Lindsey's into it, but was like, look, me
11:21
and Stevie, Pease and a Pod. Or a package
11:23
deal. Yep. I don't go anywhere that she doesn't
11:25
go, etc. So
11:27
a couple nights later, they all get together. I
11:30
think he was at a Mexican restaurant in LA.
11:33
He got around a table, Mc Fleetwood, John
11:35
McVie, Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks, and Lindsey
11:37
Buckingham, and the future of
11:39
modern music was set on. I
11:42
mean, apparently they got on
11:44
great. So let's take
11:46
stock here. It is the start of 1975. Fleetwood
11:50
Mac is comprised of Christine McVie,
11:52
age 31, her husband John
11:55
McVie, age 29, Stevie Nicks, age 26,
11:58
her long-time romantic and creative partner Lindsey Buckingham. Buckingham
12:00
25 and McFleetwood 27
12:03
who is also married although wife Jenny Boyd
12:05
is obviously not in the band. These
12:08
people are about to start creating
12:11
brand new things from scratch together
12:13
spending countless hours in a collective
12:15
flow state writing and
12:17
recording songs spending boring hours in
12:19
transit between shows before huge screaming
12:22
crowds spending days and
12:24
nights away from everything comfortable and
12:26
normal except each other and collectively
12:28
discovering the ups and downs of
12:30
massive alcohol abuse and cocaine addictions
12:32
together. I wonder
12:34
what's gonna happen. You
12:37
know you have every elemental
12:39
zodiac sign represented except for earth.
12:43
Oh interesting nothing grounds these people. Just
12:45
as a is my 30 second interjection.
12:48
Sure bring your nostrology at
12:50
me. Stevie Nix and
12:52
Lindsay Buckingham are both air signs. Okay
12:54
floating away. Gemini Lieber respectively. McFleetwood
12:57
is a water sign. He is a cancer. John
13:00
McVie is a Sagittarius. He is the only
13:02
fire in the group. Christine
13:04
Perfect is a cancer just like
13:06
Mick and is also a water
13:08
sign. So you kind of
13:10
see how some of these relationships play
13:12
out based on we can't talk about
13:14
Fleetwood Mac and not talk about astrology.
13:16
I don't see why not but I
13:21
will say John McVie is the
13:23
most understated of all of them so it's
13:26
interesting to me that he is burns
13:28
a quiet fire. A quiet fire. See that
13:30
this can be really whatever you want
13:32
it to be. Nostrology
13:36
please continue with your story my dear. On
13:38
the plus side a documentary I watched
13:40
had Christine McVie talking about integrating Buckingham
13:42
and Nix into the lineup and
13:45
she said it worked because she had no sense
13:47
of competition with Stevie like they were not competitive
13:49
with each other which I just found
13:51
that to be a. And in each other's
13:53
crowns. Yeah what you do. Yeah and
13:56
what you do. Illuminating statement about relationships
13:58
between women and sort of. Nationally
14:00
important because they can be fraught. And.
14:02
It wasn't so that worked. So.
14:04
Because the jelled. And. Weren't competing.
14:07
For. Seen said that just magical things
14:09
happens when they started. Writing.
14:11
Playing music the other like early on. It.
14:14
Was great. Early on
14:16
was a very short span of times. But
14:20
it was awesome. It was awesome! They
14:22
are you True Crime fans. This is
14:24
Mike Ferguson and this is Mike Murphy
14:26
and we'd like to invite you to
14:28
listen to our podcast, Criminals. Launched in
14:31
two thousand and seventeen, we've covered variety
14:33
of strange cases from murders to missing
14:35
persons. Some of the cases are ones
14:37
you may not have heard of. Other
14:39
cases we cover are some of the
14:41
most historic and true crime. There are
14:43
two hundred episodes of Criminology available to

Criminals Today. Wherever you listen, your podcast.
14:53
Sandwich Heads today and Steve a sandwich is.
14:55
We've got the tips and tricks to the
14:57
best sandwich order at all. Starts with the
15:00
saga right here. Have the zero sugar partial
15:02
to pastrami craving. Has he barn owl? Yes.
15:04
Sounds delicious, but. Chris
15:07
pressing taste have zero sugars
15:09
and the fireworks. Lunch, dinner
15:11
or late night it'll be a sandwich. Were
15:13
celebrating. Trust me, you're Boise in a lot of sandwiches
15:15
and is A And the one thing I can say with
15:17
absolute fact. Every
15:20
bank is better with Pepsi. Ok
15:22
so the new band goes into the studio
15:24
to record what would become the album Fleetwood
15:26
Mac. This. I mean
15:28
Theatrics, Hogs like, say you Love
15:31
Me Riyadh and landslide Monday morning.
15:33
I mean the list goes on.
15:35
You know all of these songs.
15:37
Everyone. everyone knows all the songs.
15:40
This. Was a Los Angeles studio and
15:42
Nineteen Seventy Five and Make Fleetwood later
15:44
noted that the police dispense cocaine like
15:47
it was a service. He called cocaine
15:49
new and undiscovered territory and it would
15:51
become a hallmark of the fucked up
15:53
interpersonal dynamics of Fleetwood Mac for years
15:56
to come. Elsa
15:58
And aside from the Coke making
16:00
everything better, there was already tension
16:02
brewing. And. For instance, it turns out
16:04
that Lindsey Buckingham is kind of an asshole.
16:07
Yeah. I was hoping you'd get her out
16:09
of the start of story. sorry, there's more to that
16:11
sentence When it came to how the others were playing
16:13
their part, Of
16:15
A and at one point John
16:18
Wick the stops them apparently like
16:20
mid harangue and says the band
16:22
you're in his Fleetwood Mac I
16:25
am the Mack and I play
16:27
bass. Shut
16:29
Him Down. They got through it
16:31
though, and the album launched to
16:34
modest success. But. The
16:36
band's formula was what it had always
16:38
been. They were gonna to are constantly.
16:41
And. It took fifteen months but they put
16:43
that album and the number one slot and
16:45
it starts with tea and months on the
16:47
road to do it though. They.
16:49
Were tired people and by then like
16:51
completely driver they are really tired. Think
16:55
is the think about the their souls
16:57
were tired and their noses hurt. I
17:00
said it's said that that is true
17:02
Guessing said the territory break and seventy
17:04
six. Like. There were still on
17:06
of the Fleetwood Mac album to or. But.
17:08
A break between legs. They go to
17:10
Florida to try to try to relax,
17:12
take a nap, right? Some music sir?
17:14
You know. They. They
17:16
were very. I. Feel like there
17:18
was a lot of co dependency here. I'm not
17:21
sure why we like. And
17:23
you'll hear later. It's Very. It's
17:25
very strange. Mick Fleetwood has some
17:27
ideas about how stuff should work
17:29
because I feel like. It.
17:31
Would be normal on a during break for
17:33
everybody to like scatter to the wind? Sure.
17:36
Particular. Are so. You're.
17:38
Not going to want to hate you. Don't
17:40
go on vacation with coworkers. Yeah, so let's
17:42
let's take stock here to read. About
17:45
like a year and a half after we took
17:47
stock. Proceed. And John are
17:49
now divorced. Oh really, Make is
17:51
separated from Jenny. Stadium.
17:54
Lindsay have not only broken up but they
17:56
are like. Aggressively fighting
17:59
with each. There whenever they
18:01
encounter each other. Really? So mix like
18:03
hey guys, let's all go to Florida on. Break
18:05
And they do. You
18:08
ever says listen emit complete word.
18:10
We really. Do that is a
18:12
bad idea. Well okay buddy, I didn't know
18:14
that was the state. Of everybody's personal.
18:17
yeah, both full We're We're about
18:19
to head into the Yeah. I
18:21
thought it disintegrated during I think
18:23
it was. I think it was
18:25
slow burn disintegration. I think it's
18:27
whole. He was. he smokes pulling
18:29
out of her time. Okay, talk
18:31
to me What happens? Well.
18:33
Okay, so they're at this house in Florida. And
18:36
it was. You know? All of
18:38
this, all of this and or
18:41
and everybody, everything is collapsing and
18:43
Lindsey Buckingham hammers out the first
18:45
iteration of Fleetwood Mac's classic. Go.
18:47
Your own way. Which. Is
18:49
his breakup song from Stevie Nicks. And
18:53
twenty thirteen. Lead. He told
18:55
Classic Rock Magazine I was completely devastated
18:57
when she took off. And. Yet
19:00
I had to make hits for her. I. Had
19:02
to do a lot of things for her that I really didn't
19:04
want to do and yet I did them. So
19:06
on one level I was a complete. Professional and
19:08
rising above that. But there was a
19:10
lot of pent up frustration and anger
19:12
toward Stevie and me for many years
19:14
of sing me you're sad song of
19:17
being a sad white boy who is
19:19
a talented guitarist who kidnapped like ah,
19:21
no other one had like I'd I'd
19:23
completely. I guess I'm sure that
19:25
he was bitter and angry for a long
19:27
time and that their proximity, but you know
19:29
what he could have done and ultimately did
19:31
do and ultimately hasn't. He. Could have walked
19:34
away from the band for few years. You know
19:36
she could have to like. All
19:38
of all of this petty prose party stuff is.
19:40
Not. Not working for me. Notice on us
19:43
out his a very talented me that are He
19:45
really really know what else he could have done
19:47
before he did all of that. Not.
19:49
Been a dick. Well.
19:51
I think because that's who he is and
19:53
what Mcguigan Health. says.
19:55
Personality. That's.
19:58
The problem. Okay
20:02
see, I'm the mask in as bad
20:04
man. So Stevie Nicks responded approximately
20:07
the way you'd expect a normal
20:09
person to respond. If. Someone had
20:11
written go your Own Way about other if
20:13
they're x in written go your own way
20:15
The are bound. Taylor Swift. So
20:18
she particularly took issue with a specific
20:20
set of lyrics and later told Rolling
20:22
Stone. I. Very much resented him
20:24
telling the world that packing up the shacking
20:26
up with different men was all I wanted
20:28
to do. He knew it wasn't true, it
20:30
was just an angry thing that he said
20:32
every time there's words would come on stage.
20:35
I wanted to go over and kill him.
20:37
He knew it. So he really push my
20:39
buttons through that. It. Was like all
20:41
make you suffer for leaving me and I did.
20:43
O. Sea Sir did What Is
20:46
she right? Okay, so
20:48
first to be honest, Kill Your
20:50
Own Way is a fantastic saw
20:52
that it in the early episodes
20:54
bring Real Song and became one
20:56
of the smash hits from the
20:58
Rumors album which was so you
21:00
know, a year and change away,
21:02
Absolutely. It also spawned a response
21:04
song, Tell Me. Penned. By
21:06
Stevie late in the development of the
21:08
record Rumors. This. Is the
21:10
song Silver Springs. Do.
21:13
You mean the song? Or. The
21:16
curse. Yeah. Yeah
21:18
yeah you be the judge. Check out
21:20
trashy divorces.com to watch the video and
21:22
you tell me I'm just like Stevie
21:25
later down. much more real of though
21:27
Man Yeah so Stevie. I love. Silver
21:30
spring like. Loved it! It's
21:32
this angry break up anthem which
21:34
ends with this bad ass ramp
21:36
up. And. You're right, it is
21:38
obviously ever you you will it is
21:41
sore as a result you yup you
21:43
will never be free. It is the
21:45
up a curse in a song yup
21:48
more real of those style and I
21:50
love oh yeah pure sort of makers
21:52
I may have cursed to see of
21:54
my exes with the same thing which.
21:57
The. powerful song some say in
22:00
Stevie makes a bomb out of it. Stevie
22:30
makes a bomb out of it. Stevie
23:00
makes a bomb out of it. Stevie
23:30
makes a bomb out of it. Can
24:00
I get to that? really? Since. Okay
24:02
so she was furious, she was crushed. but
24:04
ultimately like rumors went out the way it
24:06
went out. When.
24:09
Go Your Own Way was released as a
24:11
single and this is back in the days
24:13
when it was vinyl single so there was
24:16
a beside. Boiling Silver Springs was beside. Oh.
24:19
No. Sir put the whole
24:21
discussion in one place by. Know thought
24:23
that that's the cameramen. From
24:25
the view putting together Rosie, oh
24:27
Donald, Elisabeth Hasselbeck in that Thing
24:30
in the Wizards as different T
24:32
V. That. To setting.
24:34
That. Doesn't need to go with that
24:36
setting it up to be a
24:39
conflict, yet so unhealthy behavior. So
24:41
like. Snow. And Fleetwood Mac
24:43
Super fans from like back in the
24:45
day had had always considered Silver Springs
24:47
to be like the last Fleetwood Mac.
24:50
It. Was kind
24:52
of a legendary song. so run Ninety
24:54
Ninety. I mean, we're jumping ahead. we're
24:56
going to jump back. But around Ninety
24:58
ninety. Stevie was considering doing a best
25:00
of her solo work because. All.
25:03
Of them really had been really sing solo work in
25:05
the interim. And. So she
25:07
asks Mack if she can you silver springs for
25:09
it since fluid not can. In
25:11
any meaningful way. And. He
25:14
was like, well, actually, We're coming up
25:16
on the twenty fifth anniversary of
25:18
Brewers. Zarate. Ninety.
25:21
Anyway, We're coming opponent on a. Ton.
25:23
Of or twenty five. the chain you know is that
25:25
a box that they release and ninety two. Was.
25:27
Like I was thinking of using it for that. So.
25:29
No, you can't. Say
25:32
I'm seeing she quit. Wow.
25:38
Yeah she quit from us have a decade as actually went
25:40
back and ninety seven or ninety eight. And
25:42
Silver Springs did appear on the Twenty
25:44
Fifth Anniversary box set. Third Seed One
25:46
often had an and highly successful oh
25:48
yeah, Solo Korea. Leaving the band did
25:50
not slow her down. Not at all.
25:52
On and see like to see you
25:54
know, Lindsey Buckingham, Ah Christine, I feel
25:56
like they all they all and they
25:59
all worked together. Solar Project Very
26:01
and Mick Fleetwood with like
26:03
as a dysfunctional. It is
26:05
a dysfunctional band and are but Stevie
26:07
Nicks had the most commercial success as
26:09
a solo artist. For sir you know
26:11
Percy Mugsy like developed a fear of
26:13
flying like the touring bike again really
26:16
mix we would had this like grueling
26:18
to are saying that that's just how
26:20
he preferred to be a musician in
26:22
the world right hand. So overtime
26:24
like seems, she left the band for
26:26
many years. plus she just didn't. That.
26:29
Was on where she was alive, same or she wanted
26:31
to be with her friends and family. She won't be
26:33
getting on airplanes and. Get. That
26:35
you know? Yes Yeah! This band
26:37
has really like. Formed.
26:39
And reform than. Just.
26:41
It's been a bunch of different things
26:43
over time. But. Silver Springs
26:45
Amazing song. It will be on our website.
26:48
Oh and it it did not. really.
26:51
Come. Back to the forefront until
26:53
Ninety Ninety Seven when they released
26:55
the Dance See a Concert Album
26:57
and some. And then they'd They'd
27:00
rereleased rumors. It's like the
27:02
deluxe version of Rumors that includes Silver, Spend
27:04
a bunch of other. So
27:07
they're said the So the song came back.
27:09
So. It it does. It took twenty years.
27:12
Her. Mom's first royalty checks. Twenty
27:14
years late mother was for fifty
27:17
grand than yeah that more fun
27:19
from the Rumors recording sessions Christina
27:22
John had of course divorce. And.
27:24
At that point they were only communicating
27:27
about the songs. So
27:29
Chris awkward ever seen contributed to
27:32
very interest me she contributed more
27:34
source in this but to very
27:36
interesting choices that ended up and
27:38
the final line up. The.
27:40
First as don't stop. You know
27:42
don't think about tomorrow about to
27:45
Maria. Yesterday's. Gone. Yesterday's
27:47
Gone. That's the one. And I
27:49
was are upbeat reflection to John.
27:52
Ah like we had a thing. It's
27:55
gone. Don't something like it was.
27:57
Help me along with your life man,
27:59
we're cool. I write good.
28:01
yeah the. Seconds the
28:03
second. Interesting son of
28:05
a contributed. Or. Is the song.
28:08
You. Make love and fun! Yeah. Which
28:10
is not about all I want to do. It. Was
28:12
it about. Well oh.
28:15
It was about Fleetwood Mac's lighting
28:17
director who was now her boy
28:19
Seasons. oh so one of rumors
28:22
producers can kill it movies how
28:24
it's pronounced remembers but then there
28:26
was John and proceeds break. She
28:29
would sneak her new boyfriend into the studio
28:31
just as John was walking out through another
28:33
door and we were kind of ducking. Winner:
28:35
The to chemicals going to mix. What Are
28:37
we going to have? The Explosion. for
28:41
a while during the record it like make
28:43
use such a crazy person. Make. Decided
28:45
the best way to keep the
28:48
peace was have everybody live together
28:50
into groups. So Christine and Stevie.
28:52
He didn't learn enough from
28:54
Florida preceded Stevie. Got a couple of
28:56
apartments down and like by the harbor Bay
28:58
or something like down by the water. And.
29:00
The guys. Move. Then to
29:02
make a place next every hour and
29:05
a boys and girls dormitories. Yes he
29:07
is cry yes and they were like
29:09
they were working. They were in the
29:11
studio like fifteen or sixteen hours a
29:13
day. but it was like. They
29:16
would get their late. Late. Afternoon
29:18
early evening and like have a big
29:20
ceased and then do cocaine for a
29:22
bunch of hours and then around to
29:24
in the morning bad start recording. sure.
29:28
Yeah, lotta booze is butter
29:30
we'd. Love to cope. What's it like? An.
29:33
Apparent I'm in this this do the interview
29:36
with this can kill it guys. Awesome because.
29:38
He. Talks about. Stevie. Nicks
29:41
and Lindsey Buckingham laying down backing tracks on
29:43
Maybe You Make Love and Fireboat on one
29:45
of the songs. And. Arab. You.
29:47
Know they're. Both. Behind the glass,
29:49
staring directly at him so they don't have to
29:51
look at each other right. At every
29:53
time they had like. because they're
29:55
they're recording on tape this is an audi of
29:57
it as is an arm digital And
30:00
so anytime he has to like rewind
30:02
the tape, the second they're not recording
30:05
anymore, they would just turn and start
30:07
screaming at each other. It was like
30:09
a nightmare. So
30:12
bad times. So
30:14
yeah, then they're living in this weird communal...
30:18
I don't know... Fragmented
30:20
communal. Alright, and...
30:22
Nick, bad ideas, man. Oh,
30:24
just wait. We're not
30:26
even there yet. As if things weren't fucked up
30:29
enough in Fleetwood Mac in late 77, Mick
30:32
and Stevie begin an on-again-off-again
30:34
two-year-long affair. No! Then
30:36
more or less overlapped with the end of his marriage,
30:39
and then he briefly remarried Jenny
30:41
Boyd to help immigration to
30:43
the US for their kids. Apparently
30:46
was the deal. Anyway,
30:48
so Mick tells Lindsay, Hey,
30:51
by the way, Stevie and I are seeing each
30:53
other. Oh, Jesus Christ. Right. No. Apparently
30:55
Lindsay, fairly stone-faced, said, Nice of you
30:58
to tell me. I appreciate it. Like,
31:00
I imagine that was... That is not
31:02
what Lindsay thought. Not what... That
31:05
is not what he thought. So they
31:07
eventually broke the relationship off. And
31:10
Stevie next has, like over the years,
31:12
has many times, every time this
31:14
comes up, she
31:17
berates herself hard for her because she's like,
31:19
you know, I knew Jenny. I
31:22
knew his kids. I loved them. I loved
31:24
his family. And like, it
31:26
was terrible. We were drugged up. We were
31:29
coked out. It was stupid. Like, it's one
31:31
of the worst things I've ever done. So,
31:34
you know, she's lived with that. So
31:37
then... But I mean, taking
31:39
ownership forward is something like... I'm gonna
31:41
talk about a lot of people in
31:44
this episode Yeah. That end up really
31:46
taking ownership for some bad decision-making. Yeah.
31:48
In their past. To
31:50
this day, I've never heard Lindsay Buckingham take
31:53
ownership. For very bad
31:55
choices. I didn't... And he's always blaming
31:57
someone else. Yeah. In researching this, I...
32:00
didn't find that either. I will say
32:02
I found him to be sort of
32:04
a caustic and just a
32:06
squirrely enough guy that I wasn't that
32:08
interested in. Yeah. I didn't put a
32:10
ton of focus on him. Sure. But honestly
32:13
I mean Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks
32:15
are much more interesting people than Lindsey
32:17
Bynum. Seriously yeah.
32:19
I don't know. It's like there's a
32:21
lot of people who have owned
32:23
their narrative in this story but I
32:26
don't feel as much
32:28
as this band has clearly had interactions
32:30
together that fucking him
32:33
has ever owned his narrative. Well
32:35
okay so Stevie and Mick
32:37
break their relationship off and
32:40
Mick starts dating Stevie's
32:42
best friend. What? A woman named
32:44
Sarah Ricor who he eventually marries.
32:46
They were married for seven years
32:48
I think. Oh my god. And
32:51
you know yeah no big. At the outset this
32:53
caused some pain for Stevie which
32:56
Mick was really surprised by is like but
32:58
we're done what's the big deal? It also
33:01
produced the song Sarah. I was
33:03
gonna. Wow. Because this band. Anyway
33:06
Sarah appeared on 1979's
33:09
Tusk. Yeah. And sort
33:11
of okay so here's another fun
33:14
thing from Mirage in 1981
33:18
included Christine McVie's song Hold Me
33:20
which was inspired by another Troubled
33:23
Romance because she was engaged
33:25
to Beach Boy drummer Dennis Wilson.
33:28
Really? And it was going terribly. They were engaged
33:30
for like three years. So
33:32
yeah Hold Me is about like
33:34
this band is
33:37
just like this engine that
33:39
takes heartbreak and just
33:41
turns it into chart topping songs.
33:43
Like it's amazing. This is like
33:46
it's hard to think of a
33:48
more perfect system of taking like woundedness
33:50
and making it like famous and popular.
33:53
And lucrative.
34:00
Overwhelmed with legitimately brand new
34:02
information. This is um, oh,
34:04
yeah. Yeah Also,
34:07
I didn't know she was engaged
34:09
to Dennis Wilson. Yeah, so also the
34:11
song tusk which I think what year was this? That
34:14
was 80 81. So I think
34:16
they were engaged from 79 to 82 But
34:19
yes tusk the song tusk
34:22
gets probably its best treatment ever in the
34:25
opening episode of the TV show the
34:27
Americans So good is
34:29
such a cool sequence Okay
34:32
moving on So
34:36
this ends the official like
34:38
marital romantic drama within the band
34:41
section But the lineup
34:43
over the next many decades has been all
34:46
over the place with only Mick and John
34:48
standing as the permanent members of the band
34:50
so Flea would Matt.
34:53
Yep. Yep. Makes sense. There you go Last
34:56
man. Yeah, everybody got sober Stevie checked
34:58
into Betty Ford in 86 Betty
35:01
when a plastic surgeon told her that
35:03
her nose would disintegrate if she continued
35:05
using cocaine and she has said that
35:07
she They were all addicts, but she
35:10
was the worst and that moment scared her Yeah,
35:13
great shitless. Yeah, and actually
35:16
and she after that though Like
35:18
she quit coke but was still on a
35:20
bunch of psych meds after that and she
35:23
like fell and cut her head open and
35:27
Realized like she just hadn't had enough alcohol
35:29
to like it was the Klonopin that she
35:31
was on so she was on So
35:33
many drugs. Yeah, she went through a
35:36
lengthy and painful detox from yeah She
35:38
had a bad there like from what
35:40
I recall I saw an interview with
35:42
her She had a really bad therapist
35:44
who had her whatever like
35:46
on Whatever pen Klonopin
35:49
a day with Laura's a Pam and she
35:51
invited a friend of hers over one day
35:53
and said hey man Will
35:55
you today take the drugs I take during
35:57
a day? Can we do them together?
36:00
because I think I'm losing my mind here.
36:03
If you can take the drug and he's like you
36:06
have got to eat within two hours
36:08
is flat. Like
36:10
how you need help.
36:12
Yeah. You need a new doctor.
36:14
Yeah. You can't do this every day. This
36:16
is not tough. This is owning you out.
36:18
Exactly. Okay so
36:20
John McVie apparently his his drug
36:22
of choice was alcohol, a lot
36:25
of it and in 87
36:27
he had a seizure from over
36:30
drinking and so he gave up drinking at that
36:33
point. Oh wow. Okay. And has
36:35
I think been sober since or I don't
36:37
know like he's probably been sober
36:39
from booze since I think everybody's
36:41
been sober from cocaine for a long time. Sure. I
36:43
think that was just however
36:46
fun fun things about
36:48
70s rock stars in mixed
36:50
biography. That pharma party ends up stopping
36:54
at a certain point. Yeah in mixed biography there's a
36:56
story about a time when the band was chilling with
36:58
an engineer one night and they're just like shooting the
37:00
shit like how much cocaine you
37:02
think McSleetwood's done in his life and
37:05
so they ran a little
37:08
calculation. They did some maths. Oh
37:11
maths. Yeah calculating based on an
37:13
eighth of an ounce a day for 20
37:15
years which is probably.
37:17
I can't even process an eighth of an ounce of
37:19
cocaine in a day. I honestly don't even know what
37:22
an eighth of an ounce of cocaine would look like.
37:24
It's an e-ball. I know but I don't
37:26
know what that I mean I know what it looks like at a
37:28
pool table. No I'm kidding. I don't know what that would. Okay
37:30
so calculating based on an eighth
37:32
of an ounce a day for 20 years the
37:36
engineer determined that if you laid that much
37:38
cocaine out in a line it
37:41
would be seven miles worth
37:43
of cocaine. Oh my
37:45
god. And I mean to this
37:47
day Stevie lives with a dime size hole in
37:50
her septum. Seriously? Yeah I guess
37:52
there's no reason to get it fixed like
37:54
I'm sure at this point it's healed and
37:56
doesn't hurt her or anything like that but.
37:59
So Like to wrap. We would knock. Either
38:01
a few things that I want to
38:03
rebel with: One: Apparently Mick Fleetwood has
38:05
lost count of the number of times
38:07
he has declared bankruptcy. Help put him
38:09
in charge. Put him in charge. Yeah,
38:11
like. apparently a guy that should be.
38:14
And jar, apparently he never started thinking
38:16
about tomorrow. And
38:20
as a gesture to his. Never.
38:22
Went away another one way as a twenty
38:24
a T and Lindsey Buckingham pissed about often
38:27
of the day like. Fired.
38:29
Him fired him permanently and now have.
38:32
I. Want to say Might Campbell of Tom Petty
38:34
or band. And Neil
38:36
fan of what is
38:38
crowded, Crowded. House I love. I don't
38:40
know why I can't remember the name either. Such a
38:42
good There's has a good and. Such.
38:45
A good man and that is
38:47
now the permanent lineup. So Lindsey
38:49
Buckingham is listed as a former.
38:51
Really? I knew there was a
38:53
little Sli was overseas. Yeah, it
38:55
seems like as far as the
38:57
band the band is concerned. does
39:00
he just no longer remember where?
39:02
And an and he had to
39:04
heart surgery and February answer? Yes
39:06
Or so he's healthy. When
39:09
his own thing. I mean, yeah,
39:11
I mean, I hope he's healthy, obviously.
39:13
Okay. Well
39:16
done. That was an amazing story.
39:20
Thank you Telling Amazing! Though.
39:23
Do cocaine. Don't. Know.
39:26
Drugs. Are bad kids. Don't. End
39:28
up with a dime sized hole in your substance.
39:30
Their ways to avoid this? we should have stopped
39:32

39:36
I'm Chris gathered in a very said it's

42:02
So if you were in the Trash Panda
42:05
Club, you just need to say seven miles
42:07
and we all know what you're talking about.
42:09
Yup, yup. Today I'm gonna weave a
42:12
different narrative. Stacy, you've
42:14
told the rumors story and very well,
42:16
I might add. Thank you. Today
42:18
we're getting into Stevie Nicks and a few key relationships
42:20
in her life and some
42:22
lessons learned too, I suppose. Stevie
42:26
has been quite on purpose, not married
42:29
since 1983. So 47 years
42:31
and counting and I'm thinking that she likes
42:33
it that way. One assumes,
42:35
let's get into why. Stephanie
42:38
Lynn Nicks born May 26th, 1948. She's
42:41
a Gemini baby. Comes out
42:43
ready to go. She's born in
42:46
Arizona, but the family moves around a bit. Stevie
42:49
is gonna take ballet as a kid. That
42:52
is not her love. Her love is
42:55
singing with her grandpa. He's a country
42:57
singer. His name is A.J. Nicks. And
43:00
like, he's a unicorn grandpa.
43:02
Like whatever you wanna do, kid,
43:04
you can do. And they
43:07
are singing together by the time she's
43:09
four. He will give her
43:11
truckloads of 45 records and
43:14
they'll go through and sing everyone
43:16
together. Grandpa
43:18
tells her, kid, you're a
43:20
harmony singer. You are a
43:22
harmony singer and sing
43:25
little songbird. Sing. And
43:28
grandpa is gonna take her to play in his
43:30
shows too. So she's standing
43:32
up singing in, you know, gin joints at
43:36
four or whatever. She's writing songs
43:39
by the time she's 11 or 12. And
43:41
now, this is early 60s, so
43:43
here's a fun little tie-in. She is loving
43:45
the Chorales. She's
43:48
loving all of the girl band things, the
43:50
things that are happening on R&B, the things
43:52
that are happening in Top 40. Meaning
43:57
every song written by Carole King and Jerry
43:59
Goffin. She is cutting her teeth
44:01
on okay, right nice little tie-in from a few
44:03
weeks ago. Yep but
44:06
Stevie Jim and I kid Stevie's
44:08
mom kind of Understands
44:10
her daughter and Stevie's
44:13
mom is gonna tell her early on Hey,
44:15
you like being the boss You
44:18
need to make sure that you are president
44:20
of your company or leader of your band
44:22
cuz you do not like people telling you
44:25
what to do And
44:27
this is some very wise advice that maybe Stevie
44:29
should have listened to There's
44:33
one November night in 1966 There
44:36
is a party and across the
44:39
room. There's a dreamy guy Strumming
44:42
on the guitar big big hair big hair
44:45
a lot of beard. I think Probably
44:48
not at that point cuz they're both
44:50
on the edge of 17
44:52
oh are they okay, and there's this dude
44:55
and he's playing California
44:57
dreaming who is this
44:59
mystery guitar player? Oh, I can't imagine
45:02
huh Lindsay Buckingham
45:04
old lens Libra boy.
45:06
He's born October 3rd in Palo
45:08
Alto, California Lindsay's got
45:10
two brothers. They're all competitive swimmers
45:13
Like seriously competitive swimmers and do very
45:16
well, but lens is not into
45:18
that lens is really
45:20
into music he's obsessed by it
45:22
he loves the Kingston trio and and
45:26
Lindsay just legit gets obsessed
45:28
by music and starts playing on this
45:30
Mickey Mouse guitar until his parents
45:32
are like Okay,
45:35
I guess this is a thing you want
45:37
to do Here's a real instrument if
45:39
you want to keep this up so they
45:41
upgrade them You know to a real acoustic
45:43
this is the equivalent of the Snoopy fishing
45:45
pole that my parents gave me when I
45:47
was tiny That's right. You want to be
45:49
a fisherperson you start with this little three
45:51
foot long Snoopy fishing pole We have a
45:54
replica of that pole in our home right
45:56
now. We do okay, but
45:58
Lindsay has never taken a
46:00
guitar lesson. He doesn't know how to
46:02
read music, but he's in love with
46:04
it all, and the guitar, and making
46:06
music happen. He loves
46:09
his guitar. Maybe he should have
46:11
dated his guitar instead. Alright,
46:13
let's bring these kids together. November
46:15
1966, there's a party, and both Stevie
46:18
Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham are there. Both
46:21
ride on the edge of 17. And I
46:24
know what Stevie Nicks says about edge of
46:26
17, but wowza. This
46:29
is a teenage romance song, but
46:31
from a later adult point of view.
46:33
Like Stevie Nicks gets it when she
46:36
writes the song, whatever, 15
46:38
years later. It's
46:40
not important here. Anyway, two kids.
46:43
There's the groovy kid playing California Dreamin' in
46:45
the Corner, and Stevie Nicks is like, my
46:48
grandpa says I'm a harmony singer. So
46:53
she wanders over. It's my moment.
46:55
It's my moment. And drops some
46:57
harmonies. Sure. Mama Cass, Michelle Phillips
46:59
harmonies inside of his California Dreamin'.
47:02
And that's that. Life goes on
47:05
until one of the dudes in Lindsey's band
47:07
calls Stevie Nicks. And it's like, uh, do
47:10
you want to be in her band? And she's
47:12
like, yeah, I can't think why not. So
47:14
she joins the band. Grandpa said I'm a
47:17
harmony singer. Grandpa, I say, in harmony. I
47:20
mean, she's also right. And she's
47:22
so, yeah, yeah. We joke, but
47:25
she joins this band called Fritz and
47:27
her parents are cool with it. Like the band
47:29
is busy. They are working every weekend and her
47:32
parents are like, we're all for this, but you
47:34
have to stay in school. Cause she's still
47:36
in high school. Like I do recall that. This
47:38
is high school college. Right. In the high school
47:40
beginning of college. Yeah. This band was like gigging
47:42
constantly even before they'd graduated high school. I
47:45
mean, they're a working band, but
47:47
her parents are like supportive.
47:49
We'll support what you're doing kid, but you
47:51
still have to get a degree. To have
47:54
your fallback. To have your fallback
47:56
plan. This is like when you become a parent, I think
47:58
that a doctor hands you a slip. that just has
48:00
the word fallback on it. Here,
48:02
if your child is creative, here's the word you
48:04
need. You need a fallback plan. All
48:07
right, so Stevie joins
48:10
the band. There are no romantic sparks
48:12
with Stevie and Lindsay. Both
48:15
do you have a boyfriend and a
48:17
girlfriend? I think you
48:19
mean respectively. Both
48:22
Stevie and Lindsay are both in relationships.
48:25
Are both in relationships. And
48:27
they're in a band, and they're collaborating. They're having fun.
48:30
Stevie's taking some classes. So it's
48:32
like everybody's kind of doing the
48:34
work and playing. But it's late
48:36
1960s in San Francisco. And
48:39
they're opening for Jimi Hendrix and Janice
48:41
Joplin. And they're playing at the Fillmore
48:43
and the Avalon in Winterland. It's
48:45
a marvelous time. It's all about the music. And
48:48
they want to make it. And they want to record it too.
48:51
So here comes Lindsay Buckingham's dad. He
48:54
works at this coffee company in
48:57
the city. And he's like, hey, Stevie
48:59
and Lindsay, I know you really
49:02
want to have a space to
49:04
work on your tunes. Want some
49:06
of my sweet, sweet Starbucks dollars?
49:08
I know it's not Starbucks. It's not Starbucks. But
49:12
dad's like, hey, I work at
49:14
this coffee company. And I can get you
49:16
in the office building after 9 o'clock at
49:18
night. And you can work from 9 PM to
49:20
3 AM. You
49:23
have a space to do it. It's quiet. Nobody's
49:25
going to bug you. Work on your music there.
49:28
So they do. Stevie is going
49:30
to do crochet as Lindsay's doing his
49:32
thing. And they lay down some
49:35
vocals and some music and guitar and sing
49:37
some more and knit some more and whatever.
49:40
Romance and the coffee company. After
49:43
10 months of working together, they fall in love.
49:46
Maybe with the project. Maybe with
49:48
the music. But then it becomes
49:50
more than all about the music. And they're,
49:52
I Don't know, I'm going to
49:54
say love, fall in love here loosely. Because
49:56
I think Lindsay Buckingham Really, really is only
49:58
in love with his guitar. The
50:01
treaty then and she's hooked. And.
50:03
They're making beautiful music together and the
50:06
months of working in the coffee company
50:08
has changed. The dynamic in it is
50:10
fueling. Their passion. What if they're just.
50:13
A hyper caffeinated. They're
50:15
both air says. He's. A
50:17
Gemini and Libra. So in
50:20
no strategy, it's polluting away,
50:22
right? Isis, Sonny and Cher?
50:24
This is. We. Did somebody
50:26
else recently? Said Or
50:29
therein therein therein Therein a shared delusion, if
50:31
you will. They. Things are happening.
50:34
And they're sharing it together. And.
50:37
Ah, they make a big announcement to Mom
50:39
and Dad and the bad and they're like
50:41
hey, guess what? We're. Now do well
50:43
and we're going to move to L A and make it
50:45
big! And. Studies.
50:48
Parents are like. Okay kid, but
50:50
if you're going to do this, we're. Out financially
50:52
you're going to need to support yourself.
50:54
Go live your dream. But
50:57
don't come crying to us when
50:59
you can't make it. Good
51:02
luck. So they me. Steve.
51:05
He gets a job as a waitress. Ah,
51:08
made a every like Stevie work
51:10
in what I. Would is Lindsay
51:12
do well. They're not playing. Ah,
51:15
She's up playing music in the day. Lizzie.
51:18
Is she's working in the day
51:20
for earning money right and listed
51:22
as a have any jobs oh
51:25
those the says. Stevie.
51:27
Nicks plus a she's very tied at
51:29
once. He doesn't have a job because
51:31
what would he. Do. To
51:33
me, what is Lindsey Buckingham than a do. As
51:36
he gonna be a waiter, I don't think
51:38
so. I knew him way to well. You
51:40
know your man. He's a music man. That's
51:43
what he does. I.
51:45
On the other hand, I'm a girl of all trades.
51:48
I think see says a lot of
51:50
Grayson. this. Set
51:52
is not probably what I've dated. Lindsey. Buckingham
51:54
Said is not what I sammy a
51:56
habit they did have other day that
51:58
that guy and. Not as graceful
52:01
about what I say, at least
52:03
inside my heart. Or
52:05
if they're Cd she's taken written, paying for
52:07
the car and they're recording in their basement.
52:09
Know working on music and. Though.
52:12
Nineteen Seventy Two Dave
52:14
recorded. What? Will become their
52:16
debut album Buckingham next they get
52:18
fined Apollo Door. The album comes
52:20
out gets lot of critical acclaim. And.
52:23
Then pollard or dropped some to the album. Does
52:26
not sell me. By.
52:28
Nineteen Seventy Four. Steepest.
52:30
A. Studious. Tired of
52:32
being poor in a waitress and
52:34
made and taking every job she
52:36
can to support Lindsey's lifestyle of
52:38
sitting around, getting high and playing
52:40
music all day in his underwear.
52:43
I'm assuming the in his underwear part
52:45
these days. I believe video games fill that
52:48
void for so many so. And.
52:50
May be projecting about the underwear part
52:52
I'm in. It's
52:55
twenty twenty we can surmise. But.
52:58
See why? Is it up? Finally figured out
53:00
that she's worth a little more. She's.
53:03
Us are tired and she's hungry. She's.
53:05
Tried to me that a few times, but she
53:07
can't afford rent on her own. And.
53:09
There had been break up and get back to
53:12
gathers and. Seriously. Lindsay. Get
53:14
your shit together man. like worse. Boyfriend
53:16
award. Oh I forgot to talk about
53:18
his infidelity. So good. Guess so
53:21
on the Buckingham next album Quotes: she's.
53:23
Away a lot elisa he probably gets
53:25
lonely. She's. Away a
53:27
lot, working odd jobs, losing her job.
53:29
it in his underwear yes, hi, I'm
53:31
play guitar as he's probably very lonely.
53:33
She should focus more on him seediness
53:36
as a songwriter, right? So there's a
53:38
definite reference on bugging him next to
53:40
him sleeping around in her songs. Like.
53:43
The relationship is rocky. It is bad in
53:45
Stevie. Nicks is beyond done. You have taken
53:47
advantage of me for as long as I
53:49
am willing to go bucko and now see
53:51
the next wants to bail. She's.
53:54
Like you know what? My. Parents will let
53:56
me move back home. I can
53:58
go back to school. Okay,
54:00
eat out and Fleet. I can just
54:02
go study some books and take the
54:04
pressure off. Everything that I
54:06
have tried to keep together for
54:09
years now. Fear.
54:11
Never helps relationships does. Handy
54:13
heavy like tip. Okay,
54:16
So. Stealing. Lindsay are
54:18
already on the outs even before
54:20
they connect with Fleetwood Mac. This.
54:23
Is what the song landslide is about. See.
54:25
The next rights that like shit if I dumped them,
54:27
I lose all of it. But. I'm hungry,
54:29
but if I leave, all of that
54:32
work is gone. And at
54:34
that time it's worth staying together to
54:36
keep the music together. They had this
54:38
musical connection. Have. Sacrificed as
54:41
little bit more and then the phone
54:43
call comes in from Mick Fleetwood. you've
54:45
done that episode Rag as he met
54:48
the sound engineer who had recorded their
54:50
album I Think is that little camera
54:52
and lens. He's like yeah, I'll be in
54:54
your bambee that isn't my girlfriend Sue and. But
54:58
it is Stevie Nicks that pushes Lindsay
55:00
and adjoining. Stevie. Nicks lays down.
55:02
She's like. I. Am done.
55:05
Unless. You do that. She's barely hanging on.
55:07
Lays it all on the line. Tar.
55:09
To be in a waitress? Let's.
55:11
Go! We're here to make music.
55:14
Sorry you're going to have to put on pants.
55:17
And leave the house and actually
55:19
do something with have analyzed man.
55:23
Talented musician. Kind
55:25
of a lousy boyfriend. Lindsey.
55:28
Buckingham is like okay, so it's on.
55:31
Stadium Lindsay by the summer nights
55:34
And Seventy Five or millionaire. By.
55:37
The end of Nineteen Seventy Five, they
55:39
have broken up. Cds like
55:41
I'm out amount of us. There's nothing that
55:43
can be done to put us back together
55:45
again that you and I are staying in
55:48
this band and you are going to wear
55:50
pants and we're going to work together every
55:52
day to keep this together. Us breaking up
55:54
does not ruin the thing that we have
55:57
worked so hard to get here for or
55:59
I need you to suck it up and
56:01
turn on some pants. But. We're
56:03
done. Over. They
56:06
wrote some great songs about the break the.
56:09
Rumors. Is the divorce to
56:11
every until gas slider lesser extent.
56:14
On earth had heard a better trashy
56:16
divorces themed alec. Really amazing and when
56:18
you get to the end. Like
56:20
and. If it doesn't make you feel
56:22
better about your trashy break up, start
56:25
the album. I'll over again, right? So
56:27
good. Okay, Lindsey Buckingham will blame Fleetwood
56:29
Mac for the loss of see the
56:31
next. He. Says they would have been
56:33
married with kids and at a different life.
56:36
I. Don't think Lindsey Buckingham. As ever,
56:38
not going to be mad. About
56:40
this. Stevie. Nicks.
56:43
says. Destiny didn't take the that way.
56:46
Both. Of us would have thought a
56:48
lot harder at different times and our
56:50
relationship if we were meant to be
56:52
together. It works out exactly
56:54
how it should. He. Was
56:56
my great musical love. He. Was
56:59
also controlling. And jealous and
57:01
all together city. That. Musical
57:03
always connect us. So.
57:06
Even though stadium as he will continue. To.
57:10
Fight. Worked. Together,
57:12
be angry at each other, work at
57:15
all out for the next, However,
57:17
many decades. The. All
57:19
Love affair. With. Stadium Once you're done.
57:23
right? After that break up, Steve is
57:25
not wasting any time. Let's date another
57:27
rock star. City. Says
57:29
don't take rock stars never and as
57:32
well as a this seems largely be
57:34
true yeah for hims. Well and really
57:36
gotta live the lives of that to
57:39
give out that kind of advice and
57:41
know that. In your trashy
57:43
trashy soul. State. Is gonna
57:45
move on to Don Henley. Drummer. And
57:47
vocalist for The Eagles. They're
57:50
gonna run post Breakup with Lindsey
57:52
Buckingham. T Seventy Eight, Seventy Nine.
57:55
Stealing. It's again very kind will
57:58
say about Don Henley. He always. The
58:00
did her like a wife. He. Was so
58:02
concerned for her care and comforts. Which
58:05
is a really nice thing to say, especially.
58:07
After the advice of don't They Rock
58:09
stars. It's. Always going to end badly.
58:12
What? Happens here. Since.
58:15
Information as come to light and as kind
58:17
of time marches on. Both.
58:19
Don Henley and Stevie Nicks have talked about
58:21
a pregnancy and that relationship. And
58:24
the abortion that Stevie did have
58:26
cause. Heavily. Into
58:28
a substance misuse. Cycle.
58:31
Ended Dixon is t the will talk about
58:33
it. I was in no way ready to
58:35
have a child. There. Was drugs. There
58:38
was my health. We were touring. There was the
58:40
music, Even. Just last week. She
58:43
reserve resurfaced a little bit and the
58:45
news in an interview where she talked
58:47
about the importance of access to legal
58:49
and safe abortions. And. The
58:51
reminder that we do not want to
58:53
return to the back alley format of
58:55
women's health care. Timely.
58:58
Seen. It on a loss. For a while,
59:00
leather and lace they're going to do together
59:02
right? Will. Always be a
59:05
testament. To that relationship. But.
59:07
There's some stuff going on in that time to
59:09
in the seventies little Cd. There's. The
59:12
Mick Fleetwood Thing. And. The
59:14
the had romance their while he's
59:16
is Mary order a yeah marrying
59:18
Jenny Boyd divorcing again but before
59:21
he gets married to Sarah Oh.
59:24
Steve. He's also going to have a little romance
59:26
with Jd. Salinger. So they jerry Brown
59:28
also future Governor of California are
59:30
it. And as the night to
59:33
any one rolls around she could have been the First
59:35
Lady of California. How amazing with that have been. Cds
59:38
getting married After that. everyone. Gets
59:40
slowing. Dresses: Everyone's a new
59:43
uniform as a boy in
59:45
the Calgary California thing. Here's
59:47
your flowing dress. Is
59:51
has wings. Again, Nineteen.
59:54
Eighty one rolls around and this is when Stevie
59:56
Nicks will marry for the first and only time.
59:58
To. A guy named him. Yeah, Kenneth,
1:00:01
the widowed husband of Stevie his
1:00:04
best friend. And for real
1:00:06
the story is tragic. Seen his best friend
1:00:08
Rob and they been best friends since they
1:00:10
were fourteen. The. Year Before
1:00:12
Nineteen Eighty, Robin is diagnosed
1:00:14
with leukemia. Robin. Is
1:00:17
married to Kim. Two. Months
1:00:19
into her diagnosis, season remission
1:00:21
and then she gets pregnant.
1:00:24
Robin goes off all treatment. She's.
1:00:27
Like I'm gonna die, but I'm gonna leave
1:00:29
a child behind. And. Sure enough,
1:00:31
a son is born. And. Robin
1:00:33
does passed away in Stevie,
1:00:35
his grief stricken and so
1:00:37
is ten. This reminds. Me: a
1:00:39
lot of Elizabeth Taylor. And Eddie Fisher getting
1:00:41
together after the death of my tied
1:00:43
because they're not so much in love
1:00:45
with each other's they were in love
1:00:47
with the person that they both loved.
1:00:50
Which. Right brings them. Together.
1:00:54
And Stevie is gonna convince Kim.
1:00:56
Yes, we really need to get married. This
1:00:58
is what Robin would have wanted. And
1:01:01
upon retrospect, she's like. To
1:01:04
do that. He did take
1:01:07
her son or her husband to do
1:01:09
that. Her words, not mine. It was
1:01:11
so insane. But Greece makes you do
1:01:13
weird things. Yes, it does. This.
1:01:16
Marriage only last three months. There's a
1:01:18
moment three months and were Stevie goes
1:01:21
and to check on the baby And
1:01:23
normally when she goes into the baby's
1:01:25
room the crib is always rocking. And.
1:01:28
Stevie will think oh Robbins here.
1:01:30
In our robbins here watching out for us
1:01:32
and three months in one day, Cd goes
1:01:35
into the ladies room and the crib isn't
1:01:37
rocking. And. Stevie Slide.
1:01:40
Robbins gone. And
1:01:42
she talks about hearing the literal
1:01:44
click in her head. Of
1:01:47
O. O.
1:01:51
C. B has on up to the kitchen to
1:01:53
wait for him to come home. Where.
1:01:55
she says i don't love you you don't love
1:01:57
me you may think you love me but you
1:01:59
don't Neither one
1:02:01
of us was thinking, we've
1:02:03
got to end this. This isn't a thing. Right. And
1:02:06
that is kind of the story of her three-month marriage. She
1:02:09
stayed close to that kid though, right? She's just
1:02:11
about to say. Okay. She will put that kid
1:02:13
through college. They're super close now.
1:02:16
She's still very much a maternal
1:02:18
influence to Robin's child, but
1:02:21
she didn't need to be married to Kim to know that. So
1:02:24
that is the brief marriage
1:02:26
and trashy, tragic divorce of the humans. Yeah, that
1:02:28
one's – yeah, I don't know if that's trashy
1:02:30
so much as completely
1:02:32
understandable that you could confuse
1:02:35
your shared grief. Yeah. Yeah.
1:02:37
Grief makes you do weird
1:02:39
things. Okay. Maybe
1:02:41
the best thing, maybe the very best thing
1:02:43
that we got out of that marriage
1:02:46
for us happened on their
1:02:48
wedding day. There's a trashy musical
1:02:50
connection to another legend here, Prince,
1:02:53
who's also a fellow Gemini, just
1:02:55
like Stevie. Stevie
1:02:58
and Kim get married, and they're driving up to
1:03:00
Santa Barbara after the wedding. Top
1:03:03
down. Everybody's got their flowing
1:03:05
sleeves. It's my wedding day. This
1:03:08
is the first day Stevie hears Little Red Corvette.
1:03:11
It's the first – it just knocks
1:03:14
off her face. She's like, whoa.
1:03:18
Stevie is going to write
1:03:20
that day what will become
1:03:22
the debut song of
1:03:24
her second solo album. She writes, Stand
1:03:26
Back. Okay? That's
1:03:29
how much she loved Prince's song. But
1:03:32
she goes to record her song,
1:03:34
Stand Back, and keeps thinking like,
1:03:36
shit. I probably need to tell
1:03:38
Prince that I'm doing this song
1:03:40
because it sounds a lot
1:03:42
like his jam, and I would
1:03:45
feel a lot better if I could
1:03:47
give him co-creator credit and
1:03:49
some rights on this. That's
1:03:52
how strongly she feels that Prince was
1:03:54
instrumental to her making this piece
1:03:56
of music. So Stevie next is
1:03:59
going to call Prince a up. Hey
1:04:01
man, I really like you and
1:04:03
I wrote the song and I just got married
1:04:05
and you're blah blew my face
1:04:07
off and then I wrote that. Okay.
1:04:10
20 minutes later, Prince is walking in
1:04:12
her recording studio. Stevie
1:04:15
Nick says he walked
1:04:17
over to the synthesizers that were set up
1:04:19
and was absolutely brilliant for about 25 minutes
1:04:22
and then left. He spoiled
1:04:24
me for every band I've
1:04:26
ever had because nobody can exactly
1:04:28
recreate, not even with two
1:04:31
piano players, what Prince did all
1:04:33
by his little self. So
1:04:36
Prince is going to come in in that 25
1:04:38
minutes and do all of the rhythm and
1:04:40
the keyboards and basically the entire like
1:04:43
music of Stand Back, which
1:04:45
when you know this, when you hear Stand Back,
1:04:47
you're never going to listen to that song in the
1:04:49
same way again. Just saying. Sure.
1:04:53
So after the marriage to Kim
1:04:55
ends and while working on Bella Donna,
1:04:58
Stevie is going to date the producer
1:05:00
of that album, Jimmy Iovine. After
1:05:02
that, she's going to dip back into the
1:05:04
Eagles and date Joe Walsh for a
1:05:06
little while. Wow. She's not
1:05:09
done with Rock Stars. Flying high, wasn't
1:05:11
she? She dates Dave Stewart too. From
1:05:13
the Eurythmics. From the Eurythmics in the
1:05:15
80s. Interesting. She'll also date Paul Fishkin,
1:05:17
who's the executive who sort of founded
1:05:20
Motown Records. Wow. Rupert Hein as well.
1:05:22
80s is a busy time. So
1:05:25
yeah, okay. So when she says don't date
1:05:27
Rock Stars, she knows what she's talking about.
1:05:29
She ain't lying. She's telling you. She's telling
1:05:31
you. I've dated all of them. It didn't
1:05:34
work out. I can categorically state.
1:05:37
Don't date Rock Stars. It doesn't end well. You
1:05:39
can try just keep going through them. So
1:05:44
definitely Stevie's had some tough
1:05:46
times dealing with some substance
1:05:48
misuse, dependency, as well as
1:05:50
getting clean and claiming
1:05:52
what is her best life. She's
1:05:54
always writing. She's always writing new
1:05:56
music. Her vitality is unparalleled. She
1:05:59
never stops working. And she's very
1:06:01
good to herself. Seriously, her self-care
1:06:04
is top-notch. Her
1:06:07
self-care is so good that she has
1:06:09
Yorkshire's who wear cashmere too. Because
1:06:12
that's how Stevie Nicks rolls. She
1:06:14
is living her best life and so
1:06:16
are her dogs. Her dogs were cashmere
1:06:19
sweaters. Yeah, I'm there for that. Ruby,
1:06:22
do we need to upgrade your shirt
1:06:24
selection? Nobody tells Stevie
1:06:26
Nicks what to do. Or her dog. I
1:06:29
believe that's true. Oh my gosh, Stevie writes every
1:06:31
day. She has been writing every day since she was
1:06:34
a teenager and I love this so much. She's
1:06:36
like, at the end of every day, I write down what happens
1:06:39
to me at the end of every day. Not like
1:06:41
every detail, but it's so easy to
1:06:44
forget the daily moments that make up
1:06:46
our lives. You can forget
1:06:48
anything and everything. You can forget the most
1:06:50
magical moments of your life if you don't
1:06:53
write them down. She's
1:06:56
just a prolific writer. Dreamy
1:07:00
and so clear-eyed as well. We
1:07:04
continue to find out more and more about
1:07:06
Stevie Nicks and I'm here for that.
1:07:09
She was asked, why haven't you ever written a book?
1:07:12
I love her answer here. Stevie
1:07:14
says, because I wouldn't be able to tell
1:07:16
the whole truth. The world is not ready
1:07:18
for my memoir. I guarantee you. All
1:07:22
of the men I hung out with are on their
1:07:24
third wives by now and the wives are
1:07:26
all under 30. If I were
1:07:29
to write what really happened between 1972 and
1:07:32
now, a lot of people would
1:07:34
be very angry with me. It'll
1:07:36
happen someday, just not for a very long
1:07:38
time. I won't write a book until everybody
1:07:40
is so old they no longer care. She
1:07:44
will go on to add that she is loyal to
1:07:46
a fault. I have a certain loyalty to these people
1:07:49
that I love because I do love them and I
1:07:51
will always love them. I cannot
1:07:53
throw any of them under the bus until
1:07:55
I absolutely know that they will not care.
1:08:01
She's a class act. We're
1:08:03
gonna do a whole Stevie spinning around
1:08:05
side episode this week on Patreon.
1:08:07
There's so much more to talk
1:08:10
about. That is essentially
1:08:12
the narrative of Stevie Nicks, not at all
1:08:14
trashy divorce. Naria trash
1:08:17
can in sight for that one, but on
1:08:19
the other hand, the supremely trashy
1:08:21
relationship with Lindsay Buckingham.
1:08:24
Yeah. No,
1:08:27
you came in last night into my office and
1:08:29
were like, hey, I need you to go to
1:08:31
YouTube and look up Rhiannon for like
1:08:33
a particular show. Have you seen me twirl? Perhaps
1:08:36
you don't know I took ballet lessons. This
1:08:39
was like one of their first live
1:08:42
shows. Anyway,
1:08:44
I didn't get 60 seconds into it before I had
1:08:46
to stop and just be like, you know what surprises
1:08:48
me is that Stevie Nicks was
1:08:50
not even more famous than she's
1:08:52
been. Well that's
1:08:54
the thing. Fleetwood Mac oozes.
1:08:57
She's just eminently watchable.
1:09:00
Fleetwood Mac gets together right
1:09:02
74 and then they make their Fleetwood
1:09:05
Mac album their debut and
1:09:07
they tour Mick. Let's all stay in
1:09:09
the same beach house and right.
1:09:13
We'll do everything with our coworkers, which you
1:09:15
wonder why rumors happen. The
1:09:20
premiere, the first time the
1:09:22
world sees Stevie Nicks. It
1:09:25
is on a show called
1:09:27
Midnight Special and
1:09:30
it airs on the weekend at midnight.
1:09:32
So you've got a bunch of drunk
1:09:34
people, a bunch of high people who
1:09:36
have only heard Fleetwood Mac both on
1:09:38
AM and FM. They're kind
1:09:40
of a crossover. They're playing both
1:09:42
ends of the radio dials.
1:09:45
So people have heard Stevie
1:09:48
Nicks but nobody's ever seen Stevie
1:09:50
Nicks and here she comes out.
1:09:53
We've got a follow up on this. Rhiannon is just, Stevie
1:09:56
Nicks is a goddess. She's
1:09:59
definitely a witchy woman and I'm
1:10:01
so thankful to share a world with her.
1:10:03
That same here. I'm
1:10:05
proud of Stevie for getting out of
1:10:07
that toxic first relationship like
1:10:09
you don't know until you do and
1:10:12
then you decide that you may be
1:10:14
worth more than supporting your musician
1:10:16
boyfriend and lifting
1:10:18
the entire load financially and
1:10:20
emotionally. So Stevie
1:10:23
Nicks, sorry not
1:10:26
sorry. Halos. All
1:10:28
the shiny shiny halos. I'm giving
1:10:30
Lindsay Buckingham unlimited trash comb filled
1:10:33
with the remnants of
1:10:35
crochet that Stevie Nicks has
1:10:37
left behind when she dusted him
1:10:39
like the gold dust woman
1:10:42
that she is. Did
1:10:44
she shadow your illusions of love Lindsay? Get
1:10:47
over it. It's been 50 damn years.
1:10:49
Put on some pants. Has
1:10:53
Fleetwood Mac let him back in the band yet?
1:10:55
Nope. He's still out. Yikes. I
1:10:58
don't think he's coming back. Probably not.
1:11:00
I don't think he's invited. I
1:11:02
think Mick Fleetwood is the boss
1:11:05
who genuinely believes it when he
1:11:08
tells you this workplace is like
1:11:10
a family. He doesn't believe
1:11:12
it. And then can't figure out why
1:11:14
everything goes to hell. Quite
1:11:18
the people manager that Mick Fleetwood. Seven
1:11:20
miles of cocaine. Whoo. Halos.
1:11:22
Trash cans. No
1:11:25
pants. Holy
1:11:27
cats and wowza. I mean
1:11:29
what 2024
1:11:31
looks like against our younger selves but
1:11:34
Stacey weren't we a hoot? So young.
1:11:36
So much less gray in my hair.
1:11:38
My hair too. Hey my
1:11:40
big takeaways going back and listening
1:11:42
to these to edit them to put them out. How
1:11:45
much of these musical
1:11:47
repetitions and themes are living within
1:11:50
my girl Taylor Swift's tortured poets
1:11:52
department? It's a lot.
1:11:54
I'll be manifesting that one out over
1:11:56
for a Patreon audience after this episode
1:11:58
when hopefully we have have a new but
1:12:01
old car. And no car payment.
1:12:04
That's been the sticking point for us.
1:12:06
What a mess. I feel that we
1:12:08
soon must be manifesting to the flip
1:12:10
side. We gotta be coming close. Speaking
1:12:13
of the flip side, we're gonna be back this
1:12:15
weekend with a brand new trashy divorces coming
1:12:17
your way. Between now and
1:12:19
then, if you like what we did here from
1:12:21
many moons ago, you may wanna check out our
1:12:23
other trashy ventures. We
1:12:25
do go all over the place connected
1:12:28
through trashy. First up, trashy royals, which
1:12:30
is us doing exactly this kind of thing.
1:12:33
And if you're into high society and
1:12:36
Dominic Dunn, my Monday Done and
1:12:38
Done podcast is a thing you may wanna
1:12:40
check out. We are in the divorcing
1:12:42
dodges this week. Quite a bit of
1:12:44
trashy divorces tie in between the
1:12:47
Dodge episodes over the last few weeks. Shall might
1:12:49
like that. And one other place
1:12:51
to hear about Stacey, the thing that
1:12:53
you are probably the most passionate about
1:12:55
in the world. I am fairly passionate
1:12:58
about the American chestnut tree, which was
1:13:00
decimated by chestnut blight. And I got
1:13:02
to hang out with Sam and Allie
1:13:04
at I'm Horrified and share
1:13:06
that story and hopefully how the tree will
1:13:09
return and how the loss of the tree is probably
1:13:11
contributing to a lot of the discontent in America today.
1:13:14
So today on I'm Horrified, you can hear
1:13:16
Stacey. Chestnut blight. Talking about the chestnut blight.
1:13:18
Chestnut blight. It's a thing. It's a sad,
1:13:20
sad thing. It's my favorite
1:13:22
tree tragedy. You
1:13:25
know, not a lot of people have favorite tree tragedies. I know. I'm
1:13:28
special that way. We do things different over
1:13:30
here. Friends, as always, thank you for listening
1:13:32
and spending your time with us, for telling
1:13:34
your friends about the things we do here
1:13:37
and just generally being awesome through this type
1:13:39
of transition for us. We
1:13:41
adore your trashy hearts. We can't wait to
1:13:43
meet again with so much more news. And
1:13:46
maybe we call our new car Stevie. You
1:13:48
don't know. You don't know. Until
1:13:50
we meet again, friends, thanks again
1:13:52
for being awesome. Keep
1:13:55
those hands clean. Keep those hearts trashy. Big
1:13:57
love y'all. Bye. Bye. And
