![Quote: "Timothy Olyphant is thinking about the Sex Pistols. "I was at an Arlo Guthrie show at UCLA last week," he says, rolling his eyes at the thought of the ancient singer of the hippy anthem Alice's Restaurant. "I just remember thinking, 'Man, if [former Pistols guitarist] Steve Jones was here he'd start booing,' and I really, really wanted to do the booing for him. Man, that show was a snore – I just didn't believe a word that came out of their mouths."
Punk credentials firmly established, Olyphant sips his latte, which has a perfect heart sculpted into its milky surface. The Steve Jones connection isn't so odd. For years, the ex-Pistol had the lunchtime spot ("Jonesey's Jukebox") on LA radio station Indie 103.1. The show before that had Olyphant as its on-air, unpaid sports commentator. He walked in one morning to promote Deadwood, writer David Milch's savage and foul-mouthed reorientation of the classic TV western for HBO, and walked out having agreed to fill in for a while for an as-yet unhired presenter. He stayed for two years. "Yeah, I was sports – and David Lynch did weather."
He's not kidding. "He only did the weather for the moment, right this second, not for the whole day. There was no forecast per se, just him calling in saying, 'This is what the weather's like outside right now.'""](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:3a5tjfyg2f3uipjobbosru5y/bafkreigjcyzww5lurnxd6r6iwa2evcnrjrtn5oyos6qbsbs3zom5xtu4uy)
