Vance interview continued: CD contents, spoof videos, manliness, and merch

  • What is a good definition of manliness?
  • Is Vance married?

Vance details his CD: eight originals, a Beatles 'Blackbird' cover, and three spoof songs — the 'Just Vance' parody video, 'Waiting for My Flight' (with the word 'poo' in it), and 'We Are Girl Scouts' set to Queen's 'We Will Rock You' and performed by a real 7-to-9-year-old Girl Scout troop in Des Moines. A listener texts asking if Vance is married (he's not). Manliness banter follows: leave-in conditioner, loofahs, Burl Ives ('manly'), Jimmy Durante impressions, Beavis and Butthead, 80s Christian music (Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Second Chapter of Acts, Matthew Ward, Petra), and Vance's gated Nashville apartment jokingly recast as a penitentiary. Shirt-merch haggling closes it: his middle name is Michael, and a host — also a Michael — proposes a 50/50 'Michael' shirt scheme.
