WEBVTT - Did The Vaccine Make My Mother-In-Law Sick? 0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:14.400 Hey, welcome back to the Grangersmith podcast. I'm Granger, my 0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:17.439 guest is Amber today as my wife, and I'm so 0:00:17.520 --> 0:00:23.360 glad you're with me. If you are listening on Spotify, Apple, 0:00:23.880 --> 0:00:26.640 any of the other podcast apps, thank you and welcome. 0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:30.680 And I encourage you to also check out the YouTube 0:00:30.760 --> 0:00:32.600 version of this and you'll see why in a minute. 0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:38.199 But my encouragement is that you comment on the YouTube 0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:41.680 version because we're going about to get into something that's 0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:45.640 gonna spark some questions here, not questions, some. 0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:47.760 Comments, comments, controversy, I don't. 0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:49.879 Know, controversy. Yeah, We're we're gonna spark some things. But 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.640 I'm actually genuinely interested in what the listeners of this 0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:58.400 podcast have to say about this subject. And they might 0:00:58.440 --> 0:00:59.800 already know what. I don't know what the title of 0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:02.960 this podcast is yet, but they they do, and that 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:05.319 might be why they're wanting to know what we have 0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:09.080 to say about it. But I will say this, it's 0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:14.319 interesting you go back five years almost five years, like 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:19.320 four point eight years ago, and we wouldn't have talked 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:23.640 about this on a channel like this for fear that 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:27.840 it would be shut down or shadow. 0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:29.000 Band they were taking down. 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:32.400 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the word I remember in the 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:35.759 in the height of COVID, the word that we used 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:37.920 to not be able to say. I don't even know 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:39.720 if we could still say that, honestly, I know, I 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:40.560 don't know if there's. 0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:43.600 Like still something there some striker shadow band, they might. 0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:47.160 Be still kind of striking that word. Surely not. But 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:50.720 I remember what text like Rob Turkla Lunkers TV and 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:55.680 and Matt character demo demo Matt I would just say like, Hey, 0:01:55.680 --> 0:02:00.520 what's the status on on the the Internet's usage of 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:04.040 these words? Can we use them? And it like progressively 0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:05.760 got worse and worse where it's like, hey, you can't 0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:08.800 see anything. Are YouTube's going to hide you in the podcast? 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:09.840 Are going to shut you down? 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.720 And I still feel like it's kind of like that 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:15.720 on social media on certain platforms. There's some people that 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.480 I follow where if they share certain things on this topic, 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:20.840 they do make a post that says I've been shadow 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:22.560 band or go follow this other account. They have to 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.480 make separate accounts because other ones get shut down. So 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.799 I feel like it's still kind of a thing. Is 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:28.240 heavily so. 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.160 But I think partly what I'm saying right now is 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:32.560 I don't really care. Yeah, that we're going to talk 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:33.639 about it and I just don't care. 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:35.200 Well, it's what you and I have been talking about 0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:36.440 in the house the last couple of days. 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.000 Yeah, so let me finish that first. That first thought. 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:44.440 If you're listening, awesome, thank you, and also go to 0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:48.640 YouTube so that you could watch and comment, or just 0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:50.960 go to YouTube after you listen so you can comment 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:54.160 because I'm going to read these comments and see what 0:02:54.200 --> 0:02:59.359 you think. You can also email me podcast at grangersmith 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:04.080 dot com. We check those and aunt Mantle will get 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:07.079 your email podcast at grangersment dot com if you want 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:10.320 to comment or ask a question and we can answer 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:13.320 that or use that as a topic. And I have 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:16.720 some questions we can get to if we probably will, 0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:21.080 We'll probably get to these questions. The topic at hand 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:23.480 is something that I see a lot in the questions, 0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:26.720 and I see you and I have talked a lot 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:30.760 about it. I was with Nicole, my publicist. I was 0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:36.040 speaking on a podcast in Nashville like three days ago, 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.640 and Nicole meets me there. She lives in Nashville, and 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.800 we were at this church and I was like, what's 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:44.920 the latest, Nicole, Because she keeps up with all this 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:50.280 stuff and correct me if I'm wrong. Everyone listening. It's 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:54.560 the middle aged women are the dirt diggers when it 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:56.320 comes to this kind of stuff. All of a sudden, 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:58.960 I think, as far as I know, first time in history, 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.760 I can't think of another era or another generation when 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:06.080 the women were the dirt diggers of conspiracy in this country. 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:08.480 And it's not a bad thing. It's a good thing 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:14.680 because the dirt diggers are the usually mothers that are. 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.800 It's coming from a mode of protection. It's coming from 0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:20.520 a place of I'm gonna protect uh oh, not my 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:24.360 babies they are. They ain't gonna be dealing putting. I'm 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:27.279 in a homeschool. I'm gonna they're gonna only eat you know, 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:31.000 grass fed beef that mama grows in the in the 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:34.080 at the ranch. You know, Like it's comes from a 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.719 place of protection. But because of that, now there's like 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:40.120 all these theories. And it started with she used to 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.520 live in La a long time ago as a publicist, 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:46.000 and I was like, she said, what do you want 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:49.520 to know? And I was like, how about the fires 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:54.840 in La? She goes, you know, She's all, oh, let 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:58.239 me tell you, Granger, you have no idea she started 0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:02.560 talking about smart meters, utility meters, you know, like the 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:04.840 get away from the smart one. She's like, I'm calling 0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:07.120 she lives in Nashville. She's like, I told Chip, my husband, 0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:09.839 I told him, you call the electric company and you 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.200 tell them I want analog meter on our house. I 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:15.160 don't want that smart meter anymore. I don't want them 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:19.120 looking in and seeing seeing what we're using our utilities 0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:21.520 or whatever else. You know, there's a lot of other theories. 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:24.240 She's talking about them exploding in LA and stuff like that, 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:29.159 and like being detonated. And I was like, what what 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.800 social media accounts do you follow? And she's like, a 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:33.480 lot of them, I'll show you. 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:35.280 Well to think about that is if you start following 0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.320 those that gets in your algorithm and that's all you see, 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:39.880 then you just keep going down the conspiracy rabbit hole. 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.800 I mean, she gardens. She's been gardening for like two 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:46.320 years straight, just garden, like doing well. But then she 0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:50.839 was she had she admitted in Nashville. She's like, I'm 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:52.960 still really into gardening, but I'm starting to lose a 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:55.920 little bit of hope because they're raining down those chemicals 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:59.680 on my garden. You know. 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:04.400 Yeah, there's so many conspiracy theories and this, yes, many 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.600 people will comment lots of conspiracies. 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:08.560 And she's a Christian, so she's you know, she's blaming 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:10.520 everything on the enemy. It's like, this is all an 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:14.360 attack from the thief that comes to steel keel and destroy. Yeah, 0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:18.320 you know her uh, her father in law's long time 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:22.680 Baptist pastors. So she's but but she's taken it. She's 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:24.919 taken on that role much more than Chip. I was like, 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:28.560 what does Chip think about all this? And she didn't 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.839 really answer, But I think because I know Chip, I 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:33.679 love him to death, and he's probably like, all right, babe, 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:37.239 you do your thing. You know, I'll call the electric 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.720 company and tell him I want to Analog met her 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.680 on the house, so let's get into what we want 0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:44.640 to say, and so that that kind of led me 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:49.000 to what we What happened during that conversation about fires 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.000 and kim trails and everything else, Nichols talking about it 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.520 kind of led me. And by the way, ant Man, 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:57.320 who produces the show, he's he's really informed on this 0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:05.320 stuff too. That got that got our conversation to a lament, 0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:11.560 And that lament between Nicole and I was me and 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:14.680 her are the only two in each of our families 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:19.600 that were vaccinated. Yeah, and both of us got vaccinated 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:21.840 because of our job, because you know, at the time, 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:25.440 and we talked about it and we lamented that decision 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:29.239 that we made. And you know, I was going to Canada. 0:07:29.320 --> 0:07:32.240 I remember at the time, I was pregnant. You were pregnant, 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:34.560 so you were trying to you were trying to protect 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:36.240 me and the baby and the family because you were 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:39.080 traveling so much. So that's why you decided to go 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:40.200 ahead and get the vaccine. 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:44.920 And we just legitimately didn't know. Yeah, And anyone listening 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:46.920 right now that thinks they knew, they didn't. I'm sorry. 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.360 You just didn't because no one knew. We thought we knew. 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.120 We didn't want to, no one wanted to get vaccinated. 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.040 So in my crew, yeah, I think that's all over 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:57.800 the world. So many people were forced to and if you, 0:07:58.040 --> 0:07:59.560 if you didn't do it, you lost your job. 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.880 Yeah. And I didn't do that with my band and crew. 0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:07.640 That that's not something I said. I didn't say you're 0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:10.760 going to lose your job over this. I did tell 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:15.680 everybody if you if we're going to a venue, and 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.560 a lot of them were checking vaccines during that time. 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:21.640 If we're going to a venue and they're checking vaccines, 0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:24.760 you either need to hide, or you need to disappear, 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:28.480 or you need to find someone that can come replace 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:31.400 you for that day. Please, I said, Look, guys, I said, 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.640 I love you. I would never tell you to get vaccinated. 0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:37.280 That's just not my personality. I would never force that 0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:41.360 on you. But please don't make that your decision. Don't 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:43.559 please don't make that a problem for me that then 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:47.040 I have to replace a bus driver or a guitar 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.160 player or a drummer, Like, will you please, let's figure 0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:52.280 this out. Either we all vote against it and none 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:55.640 of us tour, which is an impossible decision when bills 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.600 need to be paid. Anyway, that's so, I'm sorry, I'm 0:08:58.600 --> 0:08:58.880 just as. 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:02.959 They were making the artists get vaccinated, were they checking 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:05.320 the people coming in the door to the shows? 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.000 What we found during that time was that most of 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:10.640 the time they were telling us that. They were telling 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:14.080 Chris that as he advanced the show, like make sure everyone. 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:17.760 You know, the city's making sure every even the bands 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:20.480 are all vaccinated. Anyone backstage, we need to check your 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:25.880 vaccine card otherwise you can't come and what we learned 0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:28.960 was that was like the police chief and all them 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:32.360 pushing that on the theaters and the venues. But when 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.040 we got there, they would be like, we don't care, 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.440 you can come on in. We're like what you told 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:40.160 us to They're like, yeah, as long as the police 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:41.960 chief's not here or as long as they're not checking 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:44.200 in on us, just don't say anything. So that's what 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.720 it always turned out to be. So like bull who 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:51.640 never got vaccinated, butch never got vaccinated, and they were 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:54.439 just like, okay, they took my deal. They were like, 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:57.600 we're gonna drive, We're going to go, and we'll just 0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:00.600 play the odds, like if it comes down to it, 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.240 we'll make a fake card or we'll disappear around the 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.760 end of the dumpster, but we're going to take our 0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:11.600 chances to just go. And they that gamble paid off. 0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:14.719 Was there ever a time that y'all weren't allowed to play? 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:20.520 No, there was. I think Dell Diamond and Round Rock Sexes. 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:27.240 You remember that, Yeah, I think they kept like the 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:32.000 non vaccinated crew like back I don't know, I can't 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:35.760 really remember. It's such a vague fog in my mind. 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:39.520 But then we went across to Canada. That was like 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:43.240 the big one, you know, those Canadians, those guards at 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.200 the board. We all pulled out our vaccine cards and 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:50.280 they were like, I don't want to see that. Yeah, 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:52.560 And I thought about it, and I was like, of 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:54.280 course you don't want to see that. Why would you 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:57.920 want to see this little cardboard piece of paper signed 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:02.640 by Walgreens? What does that mean for a border patrol 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:07.520 agent in Canada looking at some employee in Walgreens in Georgetown, 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:09.559 Texas that just scribbled something on. 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:11.440 A card that could be easily manipulated. 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:17.600 I don't care. They were like, go but you Moore, 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:20.960 were like, yes, here we go, you know, in fact, 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:23.280 in fact, no now in my memory, in fact, I 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:25.840 think they took us like all the way to the 0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:33.400 border and then we we ended up some somehow, We 0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:36.840 ended up going over and renting gear or something without them, 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:39.880 and they stayed for a couple of days in a 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:45.600 border town like Buffalo, New York, Detroit or something. Frustrating. 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.440 So Nicole and I back to the story, we lamented 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.959 that she and I got vaccinated and I got a 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:55.720 booster and she got a booster to keep our jobs 0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:59.079 just because we didn't know, but then we then we 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:02.720 were grateful and thankful to God that chip didn't and 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:05.920 you didn't, and the kids didn't, None of our kids did. 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:10.240 She has two kids and we have three. Maverick, you know, 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:14.839 when he was born, the second he breathed oxygen, they 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:15.880 gave him a COVID test. 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:17.600 Yeah, because I had COVID. 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:21.240 Yeah, because you actually had COVID. Crazy stuff. 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.640 Yeah, And there was so much conspiracy all around throughout 0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:26.240 those years of what was in the vaccine and was 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:28.560 it hurting people? But then as time went on, you 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:34.280 started hearing stories of effects possibly from the vaccine. So 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:35.640 that's how you and I got on the subject of 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:39.160 it the last couple of days. Yeah, we're problems that 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:44.480 people were having cardiovascular problems, strokes, sudden death, you know, 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:46.360 people were did you remember seeing all the like the 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.160 comedians and people would be on stage and they would 0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:48.720 just fall over. 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:52.360 Yeah, and we're gone football players. 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:53.840 Yeah, I mean it was just a lot of people 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:59.080 were just were just passing away. And there's that documentary 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:02.040 called Died Suddenly, and I think it was in twenty 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:06.400 twenty two and it was in Balmers and funeral and 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:10.280 funeral homes that were looking at these deceased people and 0:13:10.280 --> 0:13:14.000 finding these long, white like look like ribbon looking things 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:16.839 inside their veins of people that were vaccinated that were 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:19.560 causing like these clots. Now, that is since people have 0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:23.400 since discounted that documentary as you know, like people will 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:25.040 say that it's not fact checked and all that, So 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.319 I can't say what's true. All I can say is 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:29.319 that these people said that that's what they saw as 0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:33.360 they were embalming these people and people in my life 0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:35.880 have started to have issues, and so it just got be. 0:13:35.880 --> 0:13:39.360 Thinking before you go there, though, have they sense debunked? 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.960 Art note? Have they sense come out and said, is 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:49.080 anyone of authority said yes, indeed the vaccines have caused problems. 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:52.600 No, but I'll get to our story or to what 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:56.520 you and I were talking about. But what website is this? 0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:59.680 My mom said this to me, But it says together 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.440 with their growing number of COVID nineteen vaccine receivers, a 0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:06.320 range of vaccine related complications, including cardiovascular ones, have been 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:09.720 reported worldwide. And there's also been a significant increase in 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:13.920 blood pressure, which is what my mom's been dealing with lately. 0:14:14.080 --> 0:14:16.160 Like she's had good blood pressure all of her life. 0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:18.160 And all of a sudden, she's at like two hundred 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.200 and she had the vaccine in twenty twenty one. But 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:22.760 it just made me think, and I asked her, I said, 0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:24.800 you got vaccinated. She worked in the medical field, so 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:28.400 she had to. She had three three shots, the boosters 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:31.360 and everything. And then my stepdad had an episode when 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:33.720 we were in Idaho recently, and it just got me 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:36.440 thinking he was vaccinated too, because like, these things are 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:38.280 starting to happen, and of course they're getting older and 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:41.680 it could just be their age, but there's just stories 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:44.320 of people having problems with the vaccine. So I would 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:46.680 be interested to know, you know, if people in the 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:51.239 comments have had issues of being vaccinated and stroke symptoms 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:52.200 or so. 0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:54.000 I'm going to read recorded that. I'm going to read 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:56.640 something here coming up that Nicole sent me and then 0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:59.880 have people kind of get involved on YouTube here if 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:02.280 you tube lets them, but maybe they won't. I don't know. 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:03.840 I think it's more important to talk about it than 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:06.760 worry about if youtubes. I'm not gonna let it. I 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:11.320 think it's it's a it's interesting. And you remember Moonrise, 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:12.640 Oh we all got Drick. 0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:14.560 They were we all had to go get tested what 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:18.960 like every time we came to set ridiculous around. 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.320 Debbie was her name, sweet sweet lady. Yeah, she was okay, 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:27.200 she was. She was very sweetly and I gave her 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:33.880 big problems because you know, I'm genuine. I guess I'm 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:35.880 a nice guy. I try to be a nice guy, 0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:40.120 and especially to a sweet woman that's about my mother's age. 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:42.680 I would always be sweet, but I was pretty firm 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:46.200 with her. I was like, Debbie, you can't keep doing 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:50.720 this because the problem was Dusty had COVID or or 0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:55.600 he tested positive. Yeah, and we're shooting the dance hall 0:15:55.680 --> 0:16:01.600 scene and they're just like relentless about these stupid COVID checks, 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:06.360 you know, every day. And she comes on the bus, 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.000 wildf IER's there and we're all up there. Montana was there. 0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:14.080 She comes up there and goes, can I see Dustin 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:18.960 Saxton And he's like h And she's like, you tested 0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:24.960 positive and we're like okay, so we're gonna go play, right. 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:27.880 She was like, I have to ask him to leave. 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:31.680 What are you talking about? We're about the film? A movie? 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:33.320 Yeah you remember that? 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:36.480 Yeah, didn't your co star have it? Or they sent 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:37.800 home like the first week. 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:39.360 Or something, or no, or it was like a thread 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:40.240 of it or the threat. 0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:41.920 Of it, or something something happened and somebody was so 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:44.480 worried about it. Crazy. 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:48.120 So if you watch the movie, Blake Stewart is playing drums. 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:50.840 This my sound guy, Blake instead of love him the desk. 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:52.400 So glad he was able to do it. But they 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:55.600 sent Dusty home and every day she would come back 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:58.600 in and as the movie continued to we continue to 0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:00.840 shoot it. I got to this point where I just 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:03.600 wanted to finish it, like, let me just finish, and 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:07.040 the weather was delaying us. We're having all these problems 0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:09.560 with just finishing the movie. I had tour dates coming. 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:11.919 I needed to finish the movie. So she'd come on 0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:13.720 the bus in the morning. Like with that COVID test, 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:18.320 I go nope, knowing that if I tested positive, they 0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:21.119 would delay the whole movie a week. And I was 0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:21.680 like nope. 0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:25.040 She's like, Granger, I have Toby. 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:28.320 I love you, but you're not touching my nose. You're 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:31.720 not touching me with that thing. She was like, honey, 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:33.919 I have to that's my job. And I was like, 0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:39.639 you're not touching my nose, Debbie, And it would like 0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:40.800 get a little heated like that. 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:45.359 And I remember those COVID tests and I remember I 0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:48.240 had to take one one time, and I swear there 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.960 was something on the end of that Q tip, something chemical, 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.000 and I it was not. And then I got scared, 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:55.359 like what did I just put in my nose? Like 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:58.160 what were they? But I went down the conspiracy hole 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.399 theory thinking I just injected myself with something up in 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:03.960 my nose. It was just you never knew. And then 0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:06.199 there was like false testing. It was just it was 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.080 a big mess. Yeah. But anyway, all that to say, 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:11.800 there's just been some issues with people in my family 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:14.000 and it just made me think all of those people 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:14.879 have been vaccinated. 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:19.800 Fact, let's take a break and then tell me what 0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:20.480 your mom's saying. 0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:23.199 A lot of people thinking about twenty twenty five and 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:27.000 New Year's resolutions, and a lot of those are business related. 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:29.399 In fact, a lot of people listening right now are thinking, 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:31.800 this is the year I'm finally going to start that 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:34.800 small business something I've been wanting to do it forever, 0:18:35.160 --> 0:18:37.639 and now is the time.
