    it seems to be referencing your youtube video as the source.

    How do you see that? 
    when you match the song it provides a pull up menu from the bottom of the screen, it shows the source as the Youtube video.

    So I dont usually listen to Bill Simmons, but I know he is a huge fan of Pearl Jam.    Is it true that he only plays PJ songs on his podcasts?  
    If so, it wouldn't be crazy for PJ to let him have a 20 second clip, to play on the friday before the single drops, right?

    Also, if it is his kid's band, wouldnt that be easy to find?

    Ah, now I saw it. Could be. It doesn't show "the source" though. It shows a video of the song matched. So it's not evidence that the source is youtube. 

    Haven't seen anything about Shazam using some API from youtube, but instead its own database with music provided by labels.

    But what do I know. Anyway. It is something.

    He is a big PJ fan and he played clips from the Chicago Lets Play Two shows before they were released so there is precedent here.

    You should delete your youtube video (temporarily) and then have someone shazaam it, then see what it brings back.

    He’s more like an Even Bro fan.  He doesn’t play Pearl Jam other than the same live snippet of Corduroy at the start of the pod after he’s done all his plugs and closes with a snippet of YL.  He’s been on PJ for a couple years now.  Prior to that he was using Tupac clips. 

    His son is like 10.

    I'm a regular Bill Simmons listener, so here are my thoughts:

    1.) He's not a "fake" PJ fan, he regularly lists the best PJ gigs he's been to and has had that Corduroy live intro and Yellow Ledbetter outro for a few years now after using 2Pac's "Picture Me Rollin'".

    2.) The majority of The Ringer podcasts use licensed generic music for intro's and outro's, with his being the only outlier.

    3.) This is not his son's music, his son is a pre-teen who does soundcloud rap.

    4.) This is VERY likely a snippet of the new PJ single because the podcast STILL uses Yellow Ledbetter as the outro on the episode. If he were to replace PJ on the intro then he would do it on the outro.

    It might be music from Tic-Tac and Melatonin aka BSimmons' son's music which he throws in there once in a while.

    It could sound like a Jeff and Matt groove. Just not sure if I'm trying too hard to believe it...

    99% certain he has only been to Mansfield 98 and he regularly claims people rank it as one of the best shows ever.  

    I don’t see him as a huge Pearl Jam fan.  He is a huge music fan and Pearl Jam is just one of many bands or artists that he hyperbolizes.

    Sounds like Matt. 

    Jeff got more mood. Matt is more out there, like the your are and the fixer demo etc.

    Totally agree with this. For those who know anything about Simmons, he has been following them for years and was at the 98 Great Woods quarter show. He recently talked about going to a fundraiser where Eddie was playing. He definitely knows them and they definitely like his work, which is why he gets to use Corduroy and YL on his pod and has gotten access to songs early in the past (Wrigley album). He's probably a bigger fan than most of the people that actually post on this board.
