Brother and sister not talking about Moon's book!!!! Not the greatest thing to do guys! Just shows who you are ! You and your brother need to share the proceeds of your parent’s estate equally
It's good to see Diva centre stage. I've not seen her before. The best story about her was when she refused to go to school, Gail couldn't persuade her, so Frank asked Diva to liste two of her most precious things and these would be taken away from her if she didn't go to school. She slipped a note under the door and it said, Frank and Gail, so Frank said, you win, you can stay home. (I paraphrase). However, this story is a little odd because Frank must have known that Diva would not list her most precious items if she knew they would be taken away. It doesn't quite make sense.
Explain how the 2 of you still have not sat down with a lawyer with your 2 older siblings to honor your father's wishes that he put in a Will that your mother lied about for 23 years. The father you both speak so highly of. Moon was so gracious to sit across from you and speak so eloquently without reaching across and slapping you. Honor your Dad's wishes and make this right. It puts such a stain on his legacy.
I don't agree with that. Money issues are settled in the family, not in court, and it's certainly not up to us to judge. Gail has carried too much on her shoulders for her quality as a mother to be judged as well. Few women would have supported all that and let a man produce his titanic work. I sincerely believe that too many fans are in blind veneration, a father either, is not always perfect, especially if he is totally invested elsewhere. It's very interesting to listen to them all, it puts things into perspective and brings us back to what life and human beings really are :) I'm much more angry with esoteric preachers and their thousands of stupid souls, who come like gurus to lobotomize easy-to-reach victims.
@@pantheesresolus7439 I totally agree with your op😢.. it takes 2 people to tango and musicians are special breed and touring life will destroy things sadly
@@pantheesresolus7439your making absolutely no sense. The point was to honor franks legacy. Split it 4 equal ways. That math is simple. Are you defending a crazy woman?
This was too good. This was one of the most awesome shows. I’ve seen and moon unit. You are beautiful your laugh. It’s the best you got a great laugh thank you for everything.
Interesting to see that regardless of social/financial strata, how the seeds of the sibling relationship are cultivated. Always important to remember that your sibling relationship is the longest of your life; much longer than with a parent or spouse. A lot of deep-seated flexes, here and the interview with Moon. Just because a parental unit creates discord between siblings, as adults you have the choice of cultivating that or choosing purposeful connection. Working with a therapist that specializes in trauma/ sibling relationships/ re-parenting could be a benefit for all.
I just hope one day all of you siblings can get along Frank Zappa would like that I bet, big fan of your FATHER music discover it recently and he is the best ...
@@Talentedtadpole why weird? There is an entire episode with Moon discussing it. Is this show supposed to carve a segment of each show to discuss Moon’s book? It’s Moon’s book, her story. I am sure she will be back and talk about it some more. But why expect it to be a regular topic?
You and your brother need to share the proceeds of your parent’s estate equally with Moon and Dweezle! She bore the brunt of your mother’s abuse and took so much shit from your family. Shame on you for filing that lawsuit. 😡
This is so out of date. The business has been sold and the millions divided equally between all four. They are no doubt better off than any of us commentators on this site.
Unfortunately Dweezil is the only one not talking to his siblings, according to a Washington Post article from this month. Moon took pictures with Ahmet and Diva so the three of them are on pretty good terms.
Washington Post recently interviewed all of the Zappa siblings, Moon, Ahmet & Diva, to talk about the family feud. They also interviewed Dweezil separately from them & it is very clear Dweezil wants nothing to do with them. In that same article, they receive a text message from Dweezil's wife saying that "Dweezil isn't interested in spending any time in the presence of his brother. Ever"
@@beesting26 I was referring to Diva; and the episode he did with Moon wasn't exclusively about the book; at least not the one I've seen. I'm not expecting to move anyone's needle.
Hey Ahmet (if you read the comments), in 2006 I saw ZAPPA PLAYS ZAPPA live in the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam, you were supposed to join your brother on stage but according to Dweezil you were sick that day because the night before (behind the door a Zappa son had smoked) you got too wasted while in Amsterdam celebrating your 32th birthday. Was this the _only_ reason or was there more going on behind the scenes?

Interesting story there that I can relate to...I was very young and thought Kiss was the coolest thing ever and went around sticking my tongue out like Gene and my Christian mother, having discovered they were supposedly knights in Satan's service, was horrified, and so to rectify this horrific obsession, she turned on the movie Help by The Beatles which was on TV and I was transfixed for life (not that I don't like Kiss's music, there's a lot of it I do like, but it was their look that attracted me so strong at that age)...but with The Beatles, it was partly the look, but especially the music that attracted me (not that any of this saved my soul!!!) ...and then I found Fran, and an infinite world of music and creativity became my obsession to this day
Corbin Bowl is a great place. For those interested, on the most recent season (16) of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, there is an episode called The Gang Goes Bowling. The entire episode was filmed in Corbin. 🎳
Worked with Diva back in '97 or so on a Taco Bell commercial. She is very nice. Good to see her again all these years later. Made a lot of money off that commercial thinking back.
Just watched the Gary Coleman documentary and it was hard to watch. His wife...what a piece of work. Also, I remember looking up Diva on MySpace when it was still a thing and she had posted a song by a guy named DJ Flula. I think it was called "Cockroach". But I loved that song. (She never accepted my friend request , though.)☹🤣
Kiss was my favorite band until I heard FZ then Frank pushed Kiss off the pedestal. My first Kiss show was January ‘77 and my first FZ show was November ‘78.
So, I see that the Philly concert in October 1976 at the Spectrum has now been released. My husband was there with a friend, whose name was Frank. On the way out the parking lot was jammed, somehow they got in front of a limo, your dad was in it so… Speaking of autograph’s, he has your dad’s autograph on a ticket stub. It says, “Frank Frank”… 😂
Ahmet makes this whole episode tedious thru his poor hosting abilities here. He is constantly interupting Diva and its complete chaos compared to many other podcasts Ive watched. I had to close my eyes constantly and pray it wasnt going to remain so fragmented and disjointed mentally. He seems to have the manners of an egotistical 15 yr old boy with way too much power for the amount of self control he doesnt have. Please Ahmet. Rewatch the comedy shows you made with Dweezel, about 20 yrs ago. That is the kinda guy you can still be. This is your 2nd podcast Ive watched and I dont want to watch anymore if they are all tedious and self centred like these last 2. Please dont ruin the Zappa legacy with boring podcasts. You are capable of so much higher quality material!

I was Kiss alone for 3 years. Scared the Parents. Mom saved me from this monomania by The Beatles White album as a Christmas present.

It feels like Ahmet only wanted Diva on for the Gary Coleman story. Was really hoping for some back story on the Anarchy TV movie.
That pass picture looks like Ahmet Scissorhands

I can't understand what they're saying. Am I the only one?

I was at the Philadelphia 1976 show. It was fantastic!
I was there as well
Diva 💕
You were texting in 1999-2000??
Was that Blackberry era?
Ahmet and Sheila E sing My Booger Wall.
There are three talented Zappa's and none of them are on this show.
I saw your kazoo concert and it wasn’t impressive
Putting the eyebrows on it.
Let your sister talk!
Bring Dweezil on pleeeeeeze. Is Ahmet, are you a veteran of the Kiss Army? Could you also please do a show dedicated to Donny and Marie?
Damn
Hank your crank is Frank.
Can i buy a Giraffe Cafe franchise?
Diva is so awesome!

Grifter? He’s stealing money? Bold statement.
This conversation seems meaningless.
Completely boring
Ahmed and friends talk too much shit man we hear very little of the guests
the "friends" add nothing of value to the show.
Why are you here? Can you send me a link to your show?
so hard to listen to
Brilliant analysis. You should do this for a living.
