Speaker 1: Girl? Dead for life? Man? As you are listening to
Speaker 1: this episode, we will be at the hospital. We have
Speaker 1: a scheduled C section. We go in at like eight
Speaker 1: thirty in the morning. Should be coming up probably within
Speaker 1: a couple hours. I guess with that I don't have
Speaker 1: my hand on the pulse as much as I did
Speaker 1: with Rue number two. We will be in it, bro,
Speaker 1: We will be in a Baby number two is coming.
Speaker 1: The family is growing. Family of three now family four five,
Speaker 1: counting a waffle, shot out the pup Waffle and right
Speaker 1: now snuggled up on the cow.
Speaker 2: We've all forgotten about Waffle, but thank god we're still
Speaker 2: talking about her.
Speaker 1: Yeah but yeah, man, girl, Dad through and through, Bro, you.
Speaker 2: Can do that. He's gonna be just smack my face
Speaker 2: with my own mic. Dude, if you had a crystal
Speaker 2: ball in your hand right now, what do you think
Speaker 2: you're gonna realize? Like, what do you think is gonna
Speaker 2: be like realizing you had more time with is Rue?
Speaker 2: Is it gonna be that? How is it possible that
Speaker 2: I would love a kid this much as much as
Speaker 2: I love Rue?
Speaker 1: Like what do you think? I think it's that one.
Speaker 1: I think it's like going into it. You know, my
Speaker 1: wife Charle and I, like we sit down and we're
Speaker 1: sad that the chapter with Rue is over where we
Speaker 1: give Ru all the attention and everything else, and it's
Speaker 1: kind of like you kind of feel bad. She doesn't
Speaker 1: know what coming. We've done our best to introduce her
Speaker 1: to this new baby. But I think that's what it is.
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, before we had Rue, and I
Speaker 1: was absolutely obsessed with Waffle, and I would tell Waffle
Speaker 1: in her sweet little ears that like, hey, you're gonna
Speaker 1: be my number one forever. Don't even worry about this,
Speaker 1: don't even triple this next baby. Obviously I forgot about Waffle.
Speaker 1: Kid's a little bit different. It's not like I'll forget
Speaker 1: about Rue. Rue will be my number one.
Speaker 2: Could you imagine Waffle?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I know, I know, but I think that's what it.
Speaker 1: That's what it is. It's like you can't people without kids.
Speaker 1: You can't conceptualize, like you know, the love your how
Speaker 1: your heart expands and you're able to love something way
Speaker 1: more than you love yourself, way more than everything. Right there,
Speaker 1: you're number one over you know. I would say that.
Speaker 1: Charle would say the same thing, like over your marriage,
Speaker 1: everything else, like your kid becomes your number one thing,
Speaker 1: like the amount of love that we have for Rue,
Speaker 1: that you have for your kids. When it was Win
Speaker 1: at first and then Willow comes for me, it's like
Speaker 1: I don't know how to get my arms that I'm
Speaker 1: going to I know I'm going to love the second kid,
Speaker 1: but it's like until it happens, I have no clue.
Speaker 1: I think that's like what it is. Because we're bumped.
Speaker 1: We hit the coffee shop this morning, like, hey, let's
Speaker 1: rip it selfie, it's gonna be a last time we're
Speaker 1: a trio. And uh yeah, I think I'm most excited
Speaker 1: about outside of having another daughter, is like seeing Rue
Speaker 1: become a big sister. I evern't really fired up. We've
Speaker 1: tried our best to to integrate her, integrate this new
Speaker 1: baby as much as possible with Rue, like talking to
Speaker 1: the belly. Rue shops for her, like when we go
Speaker 1: to the mall, we will pick something out for her.
Speaker 1: She helped put together the baby room for her, like
Speaker 1: all these things to like get ready for baby number
Speaker 1: two go. We also shout out the boy Stephen Jay.
Speaker 1: He gave me a little bit of advice last week
Speaker 1: that we acted on. But Char was with Ru at
Speaker 1: the mall and Rue one of these like Elsa this
Speaker 1: Elsa jewelry, And we bought a gift for Ru that
Speaker 1: Rue doesn't know about. But whenever we bring the baby home,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell We're gonna tell Rue that it's from
Speaker 1: the baby, Like we're gonna try to do all the
Speaker 1: things that just integrate Rue into this world. Yeah, Steven
Speaker 1: Jay's like, hey, here's the only piece of advice that
Speaker 1: we did for our that we did with our second
Speaker 1: one from our first Like when Rue comes into the
Speaker 1: I saw this video on Instagram. Shout out Instagram. We
Speaker 1: know how we all love to consume content on Instagram,
Speaker 1: But I saw this video to where it's like when
Speaker 1: you introduce the first one to the baby of the
Speaker 1: second one, have somebody else like holding the baby when
Speaker 1: Rou comes in the hospital room, So that way Mom
Speaker 1: doesn't have the baby. RU can come in and say
Speaker 1: hi to Mom, can come in and say hi to Dad.
Speaker 1: We'll have our nanny there who will be holding a
Speaker 1: new baby, So that way you can introduce Rue to
Speaker 1: the baby. But so that way it's like RU doesn't
Speaker 1: come into the world of Mom's holding the baby. That
Speaker 1: was kind of the whole stipulation on it is like
Speaker 1: Mom's holding the new baby so in their brain like
Speaker 1: their world. I don't know, it's all fascinating stuff. We're
Speaker 1: trying everything to make sure we introduce Rue the right way,
Speaker 1: and yeah, dude, I think we're just gonna be in
Speaker 1: the trenches. You know. Obviously, sleep's gonna be a big thing.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to feed this thing, what seven eight
Speaker 1: times a day?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't do a good job offending for themselves
Speaker 2: in the beginning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's very difficult for
Speaker 2: them to go work through that process.
Speaker 1: Yeah, try to figure out how we time up the
Speaker 1: nap times, how we you know, we spend time with Rue,
Speaker 1: how we spend time with the baby, how we get
Speaker 1: trying to get room involved as early as possible with it.
Speaker 1: I think that's all the things that those are what
Speaker 1: all of the conversations have been around. Yeah, the second
Speaker 1: baby coming.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this, when my oldest is a fantastic
Speaker 2: big sister, and all the things you just said, we
Speaker 2: did none of them, So you be all right. And
Speaker 2: I do want to brag on Rue a little bit
Speaker 2: because I've obviously known real since she's she's coming to
Speaker 2: this world. And the little girl she was like even
Speaker 2: six months ago, like a little more shy, a little
Speaker 2: more cautious, seeing her at the game the other day,
Speaker 2: playing with JP, and then finally when JP went to
Speaker 2: the bathroom so I can get a little bit of
Speaker 2: time started playing with me. JP is like all time
Speaker 2: uncle right now with that damn kid, and but her
Speaker 2: her confidence, she she does a great job of saying
Speaker 2: what she wants articulating what she wants and not being
Speaker 2: nervous about like hey, should I say this? Is like
Speaker 2: she's very like clear what she wants. She wants to
Speaker 2: have a good time, and she has that energy of
Speaker 2: like great big sister energy so inspires me up.
Speaker 1: It's one of those things like everybody's like, hey, what
Speaker 1: advice do you have for a new kid, and people
Speaker 1: say like, oh, don't take advice, don't do this, Like, uh,
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like I'm one of those cats
Speaker 1: where I like to hear advice from everybody, like taking
Speaker 1: as much information as possible and then grab parts or
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, I kind of want to implement this
Speaker 1: and with this with this time around, so we'll see
Speaker 1: what happens.
Speaker 2: I like the gift idea I life.
Speaker 1: Because I dropped that photo this morning of a trio
Speaker 1: we're about to be we're about to be growing to four,
Speaker 1: and somebody even in the comments section said that exact
Speaker 1: same idea. They're like, hey, you should buy a gift
Speaker 1: for Ruin. Say it's from the baby when the baby counts,
Speaker 1: but yeah, shout out stephen Ch. He kind of threw
Speaker 1: threw that one out there for me.
Speaker 2: I don't want to turn this into like a baby podcast,
Speaker 2: but I am interested in the sea section thing because
Speaker 2: so they basically they sedate Charro obviously, so she's kind
Speaker 2: of loopy, she's out of it. Yeah, how long do
Speaker 2: you guys know how long it's going to be before
Speaker 2: they kind of get her juices back? Is it kind
Speaker 2: of like when you get the nitrous gas when you're
Speaker 2: at the dentist and they take it off the pill
Speaker 2: of oxygen, You're good in five minutes? Or does it
Speaker 2: take a little bit of a moment for charl to
Speaker 2: get back to.
Speaker 1: You're asking the wrong guy. But the experience we had
Speaker 1: last time, so the reason we went sea section route
Speaker 1: this time was you know, for people listening to that
Speaker 1: pod back then, like Charle had a we had you know,
Speaker 1: you kind of write out like you know, we were
Speaker 1: going into it. We had a duela. We're learning about,
Speaker 1: you know, charl being pregnant. You're learning about what's to come,
Speaker 1: what to be prepared for when you're in the room
Speaker 1: and everything else. Like we had a plan, like she
Speaker 1: wanted as natural birth as possible, but like all plans,
Speaker 1: they all go to shit always, And when that happened,
Speaker 1: Charle was in labor for close to fifty hours, like
Speaker 1: she didn't want an epidura. She ended up getting three
Speaker 1: EPI durals because one or two of them just didn't
Speaker 1: go right, like one didn't work. So that was brutal,
Speaker 1: and she didn't come off like I want to say,
Speaker 1: like the four centimeter or four milimeter whatever it is,
Speaker 1: four centimeter mark for hours and to where she was
Speaker 1: just like they were advising us and we were just like,
Speaker 1: let's just get a see section after like forty something
Speaker 1: hours of laboring, and so going into this one, I
Speaker 1: just think she didn't necessarily want to think about it.
Speaker 1: I think she's just like, let's just get one planned out.
Speaker 1: I've already done it once, She's already gone through that
Speaker 1: whole process, So let's just know what we're getting ourselves into.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one thing I remember when Charle had she Charlo
Speaker 2: had like a booklet of like her plan to have
Speaker 2: a baby and how it was all going to go.
Speaker 2: And Taylor was similar in some ways in the in
Speaker 2: the with the first child, but really like everyone was
Speaker 2: telling like, hey, once you have a plan, just know
Speaker 2: that plan will be fucked. Yeah, you have no shot.
Speaker 2: And so when Taylor. I think Tayling. I went to
Speaker 2: Sedona when Charle was in labor and came back and
Speaker 2: she was still in labor.
Speaker 4: Food.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were just in that room forever. It was
Speaker 1: just not it was tough, man. It was tough on Charo. Dude.
Speaker 2: I remember seeing Will going to drop off I think
Speaker 2: with sushi. We went to Sunday for you and some sushi,
Speaker 2: and just seeing this man, it was like not even
Speaker 2: It wasn't even Will. It was just his body essentially
Speaker 2: moving around forty hours and also a fifty hours of
Speaker 2: being in labor. I'm sure you two a couple of
Speaker 2: naps had guilt now.
Speaker 1: One time, yeah, one time. Well, we had a duelist,
Speaker 1: so it was like there'd be times where I'm helping.
Speaker 1: I'm the one standing next char and doing all that stuff,
Speaker 1: and then the duela would and there was like Charle's like, hey,
Speaker 1: go ahead and get your nap. I was obviously like exhausted.
Speaker 1: She's exhausted too, but I'm like, hey, you know, I
Speaker 1: get some z's right now, can I do something?
Speaker 2: We're both hurting.
Speaker 1: It was the first time where she was like part
Speaker 1: of the plan when it was like, hey, let's just
Speaker 1: get an epidural that'll probably help, because again, she hadn't
Speaker 1: moved off like four centimeters for like ten hours at
Speaker 1: this point, and we were in the tub, we were
Speaker 1: doing all the different stuff, and so they came in
Speaker 1: to do the epidural, and then that's when I ended
Speaker 1: up falling asleep on the couch. Well, that epidural didn't work,
Speaker 1: and I wake up and she's just in it, and
Speaker 1: you know what's happening? What's this? Yeah? I was out
Speaker 1: for like ninety minutes. Where's the burger? I thought I
Speaker 1: got ordered a burger?
Speaker 2: But uh, yeah, did you wake up to her like
Speaker 2: going through like she was making noise? The noise she
Speaker 2: was making woke you up.
Speaker 1: There were some noise that I was sleeping through, some
Speaker 1: pain that I was sleeping through. I know, bro, I know,
Speaker 1: I know. Hey, Hey, where's my burg Where's where's the burger?
Speaker 1: Took the burger che screaming.
Speaker 2: I remember Tailing's first contraction with when we had no
Speaker 2: idea when the stuff was gonna start. We were in
Speaker 2: Green Hills in the parking lot next to the place
Speaker 2: that is now Shakeshack, and Tailor just like unbuckled her
Speaker 2: seatbelt immediately and start panicking and going around the car,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, Yo, what are you doing. She's like,
Speaker 2: I never experienced that in my entire life. I was like,
Speaker 2: what was it? She goes, I think it was a contraction.
Speaker 2: I was like, Oh, we're fucked. We don't say that chance, dude,
Speaker 2: I just don't wonder. But bro, women are crazy the
Speaker 2: way they can take that, because after that first contraction,
Speaker 2: when the next one came, she ate it and then
Speaker 2: continue to eat it. And my whole thing with the
Speaker 2: epidura is there's probably a whole bunch of science about how,
Speaker 2: oh the baby this maybe that there are no metals
Speaker 2: when it comes. There's no like, oh, you're a mom
Speaker 2: who did it with an epidura. You're a mom who
Speaker 2: did or did not. It's like, it doesn't fucking matter.
Speaker 2: Get the thing out healthy and just take the path
Speaker 2: of least resistance the whole way through it.
Speaker 1: And hats off to the women who were able to
Speaker 1: you know, labor for only a few hours and it
Speaker 1: pops out.
Speaker 2: Fucking breathe you you want, yeah, but he won.
Speaker 1: If you had the crystal ball, you want it to
Speaker 1: go a certain way. But if you can't, like once
Speaker 1: you experience.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a crazy thought. But you're talking about the
Speaker 2: women that can just pop it out in no problem.
Speaker 2: It's like what you know, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know how cervix is working stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I don't wanna.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's like, you know, the minu you experienced
Speaker 1: the war room, you realize like, hey, whatever, women, whatever
Speaker 1: path they want to take, whatever path goes for it.
Speaker 1: It's a different animal when you're in those walls.
Speaker 2: Just think about like Ricky Bobby getting the breaks, just
Speaker 2: getting slammed on, Like I know that's obviously a movie,
Speaker 2: but think about people that actually deliver kids. Like the
Speaker 2: dads are just like, oh, I'm gonna get in the
Speaker 2: car right now. Yeah, I am not equipped. I'm not
Speaker 2: I can't handle it. I can't change the oil in
Speaker 2: the car, let alone deliver a child.
Speaker 1: Yeah, keep the head up, bro.
Speaker 2: They just popped them things out. Back in the old days,
Speaker 2: they had litters like rabbits. They just fucking yeah, hey,
Speaker 2: we'll get We'll have ten of them, hopefully six of
Speaker 2: them make it.
Speaker 1: And then I'm watching it's either House of Dragon or
Speaker 1: Game of Thrones where they're sitting there laboring for days
Speaker 1: and days, and if it's not a boy, they're like
Speaker 1: thissed off.
Speaker 4: You don't know, Yeah, that is crazy.
Speaker 2: I was talking to somebody last night about having boys,
Speaker 2: and I just thought, I don't know if I want
Speaker 2: one anymore. I don't know if I want to go
Speaker 2: down that road.
Speaker 1: Are you guys gonna I don't know.
Speaker 2: I no, stop step stuff.
Speaker 1: I know your personal life right now. My personal life, Yeah.
Speaker 2: My personal life is I'm you're only shot. No, what
Speaker 2: do you mean?
Speaker 1: Okay, you're right, but you know, and also all of them, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: who knows if any of the boys are getting busy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if any of the boys are getting busy back there.
Speaker 1: But right now, as it stands with us too, like
Speaker 1: you're you're the only shot in the near future for
Speaker 1: a boy. Like now that we're at the end of
Speaker 1: this pregnancy, you're kinda It's kind of like how I
Speaker 1: thought with the first one, Like before we even decided
Speaker 1: to have kids, we both were like, oh, I'd be
Speaker 1: sick to have two, three would be awesome. And then
Speaker 1: you have the first one, and then you witness the labor,
Speaker 1: you experienced the labor that charl had. It's like we
Speaker 1: might only have one who knows it's gonna be up
Speaker 1: to her like because they got to go through so
Speaker 1: much more than us. And then now that we're at
Speaker 1: the end of the second one, before we have the
Speaker 1: second ones, like oh okay, maybe you know, maybe you
Speaker 1: go we go for three?
Speaker 2: Maybe not yea.
Speaker 1: Now that we're at the end of the second one,
Speaker 1: I can't even fathom like a third one coming in
Speaker 1: the picture right now, right.
Speaker 2: Because literally just a few months ago you were talking
Speaker 2: about quickly getting back on the horse and getting the third.
Speaker 1: One quickly exactly.
Speaker 2: And so that's kind of where I'm always. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: waiver point always right now where I stand too. Now
Speaker 2: we know we've noticed with the cat being in my
Speaker 2: life or Christmas lights at my house right now, I
Speaker 2: don't run my family.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't do I am not the pants wearing my family,
Speaker 2: So I could be having four. I have no fuck,
Speaker 2: I have no clue what's gonna happen in my life.
Speaker 2: That's the fun part about being married to Taylor. I
Speaker 2: don't get to decide.
Speaker 1: Right we know right now we're wearing girl, We're wearing
Speaker 1: our girl dead hats, we're wearing our girl dead hats.
Speaker 1: But we got some boy mom merch like you again. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're right now, you're the only shot in the near future.
Speaker 2: I just don't know the brain do it. I don't
Speaker 2: know if he can. I don't.
Speaker 1: Yeah, up in the middle.
Speaker 2: That capability, Dude, My penis is never taken directions. It's
Speaker 2: been a straightforward type of deal the whole time. When Cobb.
Speaker 2: When Cobb was talking about taking directions, I'm like, I
Speaker 2: thought there was just one lane, one straight lane. He's
Speaker 2: talking about left and right. That's just crazy to me.
Speaker 2: Shout out Randall Cobb's piece.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 2: They are there's no doubt about it. And I would
Speaker 2: kind of like I thought I wouldn't, but I would
Speaker 2: be a psycho athlete dad. I think I think I
Speaker 2: would fall into that trap a little bit, not like
Speaker 2: Baby Gronk's dad, not like Ball's dad. But there would
Speaker 2: be a piece of me like man, Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 2: probably would be like Dave a little bit. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: would be like Dave a little bit.
Speaker 1: Better than you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the expectation that gets placed on all order boys. Listen.
Speaker 2: I don't want to die out here, but that's a
Speaker 2: toll fucking order, right. I mean, imagine you had a
Speaker 2: boy ten years in the NFL.
Speaker 1: I you want him to get the full ten, complete
Speaker 1: the legacy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, imagine if you had to leave. Yeah, that you
Speaker 2: got a boy at nine and he was in year
Speaker 2: nine in the NFL and he's like, damn, think about
Speaker 2: hanging up, buddy, No, a piece of you'd be late.
Speaker 2: We could be the same, We could be the same. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, but anyway, anyway, man, Yeah, we
Speaker 2: do got merch. Look at what Yeah?
Speaker 1: Nice, nice, nice little plug. We got some teasers. As
Speaker 1: you guys see, Taylor and I were both wearing different
Speaker 1: variations of our girl dad hats. These will be dropping
Speaker 1: on Black Friday. If you're looking at this, sweats your

Speaker 2: farther away through anything.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what this says, dude, as matter
Speaker 1: of fact. Yeah, this simple, simple little pocket on the front.
Speaker 1: When you turn it around to the back, thank you. Sure,
Speaker 1: when you turn it around to the back, you got
Speaker 1: the Boys of the fall, Bust with the Boys, the
Speaker 1: locker room Tier one, Bust with the Boys tag and
Speaker 1: then quoted number one sports podcast on a bus and
Speaker 1: that is facts.
Speaker 4: That is a fact.
Speaker 1: That but a lot of the merch will be dropping
Speaker 1: on Black Friday. It's gonna be a massive year for
Speaker 1: the Boys as always.
Speaker 2: Massive ear every year. We just try to do it, man,
Speaker 2: and we wouldn't be able to do it without you,
Speaker 2: beautiful people watching and listening to the show every single week.
Speaker 2: You're the only reason why we're successful without Without you, guys,
Speaker 2: we're just a couple of idiots.
Speaker 1: So we do appreciate. Let's idiots regardless hit me, yeah, yeah, regardles. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Let's say add quick, let's talk about something that's also
Speaker 2: very special near and dear to our hearts, and that
Speaker 2: is sport clips this football season. Don't walk around with
Speaker 2: helmet hair like a total rookie. You've been in the
Speaker 2: game long enough to know that how you wear your
Speaker 2: hair matters. Just because your team's mascot is a Wolverine
Speaker 2: shout out the Miskian Wolverines doesn't mean you have to
Speaker 2: look like one on up top. Keep your head in
Speaker 2: the game and go to sport Clips their pro Their
Speaker 2: pro stylists have mastered the x's and o's and men's
Speaker 2: hair so you can get a tight fade while kicking
Speaker 2: back and watching some fade routes on TV. It's called
Speaker 2: a hell mary, folks, not a hair merry, So don't
Speaker 2: just go anywhere. Head over to the pros and men's Hair.
Speaker 2: They'll have a perfectly crafted game plan to make you
Speaker 2: look your best. No halftime adjustments needed. Remember the difference
Speaker 2: between an okay haircut and a great haircut is called
Speaker 2: sports clip clips. It's a game changer.
Speaker 1: Speaking of halftime adjustments, we can't nobody. The Chiefs are inevitable.
Speaker 1: They I fucking hate them.
Speaker 2: The only way the Chiefs lose is if you stop
Speaker 2: being if you become the biggest fan of the Chiefs.
Speaker 1: I can't why.
Speaker 4: I just can't, bro, I just I can't.
Speaker 1: But hats off to them, Like they have won every
Speaker 1: which way possible. They've won by comebacks. They know how
Speaker 1: to win in the fourth quarter, they know how to
Speaker 1: win with like twenty seconds left on the clock. They
Speaker 1: know how to win in overtime.
Speaker 2: They know how to win when the balls in the
Speaker 2: twenty five yard line with an easy layup field locked.
Speaker 2: It took the tight end, put him on his ass
Speaker 2: and bank that thing.
Speaker 4: Bro.
Speaker 1: They win every which way imaginable. And you know, when
Speaker 1: you're on that sideline, like the game's even close, it
Speaker 1: doesn't in the fourth quarter, You're sitting there and you're like,
Speaker 1: something's gonna shake force. We're gonna make a play somehow.
Speaker 1: Everybody on that team.
Speaker 2: No fucking doubt about it, dude. It is just crazy.
Speaker 2: And to be the tight end, first off, we've said
Speaker 2: it on this podcast before. Being a tight end on
Speaker 2: field goal is the worst position in football. Yeah, three guys,
Speaker 2: no pause, no Diddy coming down your face. If you
Speaker 2: do not stand a chance and when they when the when,
Speaker 2: If you're the left tight end and you're on the right,
Speaker 2: just know you're about to have a stinger and you
Speaker 2: might break your leg because it is the worst possible
Speaker 2: position in the world, and you have to get low,
Speaker 2: you have to throw that lake back. It's so difficult.
Speaker 2: And this poor bastard for the Denver Broncos gets mode
Speaker 2: over like he like it's a five star athlete. It's
Speaker 2: one hundred and sixty pounds off, it's alignment. It is
Speaker 2: just absolutely brutal.
Speaker 1: I mean, shout out the Chiefs. They just you to
Speaker 1: do fucking come.
Speaker 2: Well, no, they're nine to o.
Speaker 4: I know, I know, I remember.
Speaker 1: I remember I shot Big Cat a text when it
Speaker 1: was fourteen to three because on Pro Football Football Show,
Speaker 1: by the way, I did take Broncos plus seven and
Speaker 1: a half, so my bet hit no matter what. But
Speaker 1: my hot take was that the Broncos are going to
Speaker 1: shock the world and win by ten plus at fourteen
Speaker 1: to thirty. Looking it was looking good.
Speaker 2: Isn't it crazy how we're shooting him the eyes, Like, hey,
Speaker 2: whenever you shoot out of here, whenever you shoot a
Speaker 2: text your boys when things are going your way before
Speaker 2: the game's over, it always goes the other way.
Speaker 1: I know. Even when I said it, I'm like, let's
Speaker 1: this is probably gonna fucking turn around.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just it's just absolutely brutal. If you were
Speaker 2: looking for sports stuff always. We have the locker room
Speaker 2: that comes out Thursday at six am. A couple ones.
Speaker 2: You got the you took the Broncos one. I took
Speaker 2: Patriots money line versus the Chicago Bears. Obviously that one
Speaker 2: worked out really well for us, so that all that
Speaker 2: stuff will be out there every single week during.
Speaker 1: The Dude, if I would have just went even farther,
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this Commanders games. You watch Commander Steels. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so even when the Chiefs came in and that one
Speaker 1: was crazy, you turn it flipping over to Steelers Commanders
Speaker 1: that one was crazy as well. And on the locker room,
Speaker 1: I was like, I think it's gonna come down to
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Uh. I might have said last year.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I did, but I was like,
Speaker 1: this is a better coach football team than the Bears.
Speaker 1: In the fourth quarter and literally same camrangle, same drive,
Speaker 1: jayde Daniels around the fifty driving in and the Steelers
Speaker 1: bro Russell Wilson throwing that dime off of his back
Speaker 1: foot for that touchdown and goal crazy to go ahead
Speaker 1: to Mike Williams.
Speaker 2: Who just got there with this small package.
Speaker 1: You know, he is on cloud nine leaving that abysmal
Speaker 1: dumpster fire of the New York Jets. I mean, that's that's,
Speaker 1: that is what's going on. Like, yeah, I had Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 1: he was I had to start him. Jordan Love was
Speaker 1: out with the bye week. Aaron Rodgers moves into my
Speaker 1: next lot, next man up mentality, Aaron Rodgers gives me
Speaker 1: one point one point in fantasy and that team like
Speaker 1: I won. I bought into the Jets. I love the
Speaker 1: comeback stories. I love when somebody's just doubt. And even
Speaker 1: though the way Aaron carries himself, you can see where
Speaker 1: people love him, you hate him whatever, but I love
Speaker 1: just like buying into that fantasy. Like what if he
Speaker 1: does just come in and change it around. Popsa's achilles
Speaker 1: last year, he comes back around this year. He's saying
Speaker 1: all the words. That's like, okay, you would love to
Speaker 1: see this future Hall of Famer, first ballot Hall of Famer,
Speaker 1: just just come back and do it. Broy. They drop
Speaker 1: some early, they get Davante Adams in the trade, like
Speaker 1: they suck man, Like it's over, it's over. It's over
Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers, whoa forever. Maybe maybe that's the gas
Speaker 1: he maybe that's the motivation he needs. Right now, it
Speaker 1: seemed like it's over. It seems like it's just over.
Speaker 1: You know, man, I hate it here and everything he
Speaker 1: just SAIDU saying it because I'm a fan. I'm a fan.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he is the man, dude. Let's get back to
Speaker 2: the Steelers real quick. Shout out Arthur Smith. Yeah for
Speaker 2: taking Russell Wilson, who essentially seemed broken after he unless
Speaker 2: left the Seahawks, goes to the Broncos, tell everybody he's
Speaker 2: gonna cook, He's got his danger witch, he's mister unlimited.
Speaker 2: And then he absolutely shits the bed in Mile High City.
Speaker 2: Then gets sent over the Steelers. He's in a quarterback battle.
Speaker 2: And now Arthur Smith has done an amazing job of
Speaker 2: resurrecting Russell Wilson's career, and I think that man should
Speaker 2: get another head coaching job.
Speaker 1: And it just speaks with Tomlin too, like the plan
Speaker 1: the plan too with Arthur and Tomlin and the whole
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson stuff. But when he came to the Steelers,
Speaker 1: obviously they also got justin Fields, but part of that
Speaker 1: plan was like, hey, let's eliminate let's handle some of
Speaker 1: these distractions off the field. It's lay low. Let's just
Speaker 1: focus on ball, which he's done and bro, he's playing well. Steelers.
Speaker 1: Steelers are a weapon. They can be a problem. They
Speaker 1: get in the playoffs, they can make it run. They
Speaker 1: have an elite defense. Russell Wilson is going to continue
Speaker 1: to get better and better. Pickings love watching him play. Yes,
Speaker 1: we just jumping. Larry p tweeted about like just backyard football.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that is what it is too. You got
Speaker 2: two guys start getting little chippy with each other. That's
Speaker 2: always going to happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Always.
Speaker 2: One thing that worries me about the Steelers is is
Speaker 2: it high Smith?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: High Smith catching that ankle. Now, it didn't look like
Speaker 2: a broker or anything like that. He didn't seem like
Speaker 2: a real nasty twist. Hopefully that's the case, because.
Speaker 1: They did trade for Preston Smith, like they've gotten.
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not sold on President Smith.
Speaker 1: It's not like he has to be the guy. They
Speaker 1: got this guy in Watt and even the backup for
Speaker 1: high Smith when he came into play. I'm I'm losing
Speaker 1: his name right now. But he played well in absence.
Speaker 2: Having Highsmith on the other side of TJ. Watt is
Speaker 2: such a critical thing for a defense like the Steelers
Speaker 2: because with his level of play that he has on
Speaker 2: the left side of the line, you have to now
Speaker 2: focus on both of them. You can throw chips both times,
Speaker 2: but with him being out, you can now put more
Speaker 2: focus on TJ. With more slides, more chips. Bro, I
Speaker 2: don't know if you can stop TJ. Only get this
Speaker 2: is thank God for my career that I only played
Speaker 2: him his rookie year. That's all I mean, that's all
Speaker 2: I have to say, because that dude is a fucking
Speaker 2: wrecking machine. He is out of control. The way he's
Speaker 2: able to play that consistently, that much power, that much speed,
Speaker 2: it's so impressive. It is so impressive because originally you
Speaker 2: thought when he got in the league, it was like, oh,
Speaker 2: TJ JJ Watts brother, he's gonna have to pedigree, that's
Speaker 2: why he's gonna get drafted higher. When I played him,
Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, obviously not as good as his brother.
Speaker 2: And now this kid is just doing things that you know,
Speaker 2: he's gonna be a Hall of Famer. Kid's going to
Speaker 2: be a Hall of Famer again, but with uh with it,
Speaker 2: I keep messing up the name high Smith.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 2: With high Smith being out that you're able to put
Speaker 2: more focus on t J, which is a bit of
Speaker 2: a worry.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, he'll get rolling.
Speaker 4: I feel like the Steelers.
Speaker 6: My friend Austin Early, but he's like, I think the
Speaker 6: Steelers have the most value for a futures bet on
Speaker 6: the Super Bowl, just because of how they might have to.
Speaker 1: Just get in on that. What's we gotta jump on
Speaker 1: the DraftKings sports book and see like what that future is.
Speaker 2: Let's see what that boy's looking like. Yeah, dude, the
Speaker 2: Steelers are. That's a firey squad. No game was better
Speaker 2: than the Thursday night game though.
Speaker 1: I mean this, this entire this entire weekend. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're right, but this entire weekend was awesome, dude.
Speaker 2: Uh, who is it? Houston in the Lions? Houston Detroit
Speaker 2: was incredible.
Speaker 1: Bro Detroit. Jared Goff through five fucking interceptions and by
Speaker 1: the time I went to bed, they were all It
Speaker 1: was second thirty. I jumped on the I dreampt on DraftKings.
Speaker 1: Took the money is like plus one fifty at the time,
Speaker 1: just thinking to myself. Okay, they just threw five picks.
Speaker 1: It's second thirty. It seems like they're gonna get the
Speaker 1: ball back with time, like they might be able to
Speaker 1: pull this off. Yes, and wake up in the morning
Speaker 1: and they fucking win the game with five turnovers.
Speaker 2: Bro, incredible five And the kicker who had the game
Speaker 2: winning kick that literally went in by just a hair,
Speaker 2: by just a hair, they were giving his little backstory
Speaker 2: before he gave that game winning kick. Kid was a
Speaker 2: soccer player and then became like a like a kickoff
Speaker 2: specialist and had a very unique way of gating to
Speaker 2: the league. And now he is sitting in an away
Speaker 2: game with the Lions and kicks that kick to win
Speaker 2: the game. It's it's that's the kind of story you
Speaker 2: want to fucking see it.
Speaker 1: Bro, The Lions are a jugger.
Speaker 2: Not The Lions are the team that can unseat the Chiefs.
Speaker 1: And I know that the Texans kind of have their
Speaker 1: they have their reasons why they're just a little bit
Speaker 1: above average right now. So coming into the season, you
Speaker 1: think like this is a team who's gonna make a
Speaker 1: big run because of the year that they had last year.
Speaker 1: But against a team like the Texans, to turn the
Speaker 1: ball over five times and still win a game is razy.
Speaker 1: Chris is crazy. They've just been handling business. Oh what coach?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, coaching saying you get Taylor Decker out of
Speaker 2: the game. You obviously saw with Skipper in there at
Speaker 2: left tackle, there was a lot more penetration on golf
Speaker 2: really messed him up. Goff had two interceptions all season
Speaker 2: until this game. It's just it's crazy. And what Houston
Speaker 2: scored another point in the second half, right, that is
Speaker 2: just crazy.
Speaker 1: Start up that drive with the pick and then another
Speaker 1: pick as they're going down the score in the red zone.
Speaker 2: You got to feel if you're that team, you're you're up.
Speaker 2: You have twenty you score twenty three points in the
Speaker 2: first half without your number, your two receivers in there,
Speaker 2: you're only playing with Tank del Joe Mixon. You're throwing
Speaker 2: it around there like yeah. You got to feel so
Speaker 2: good about the second half of that game, dude.
Speaker 1: And people thinking about the Steelers' future odds to win
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl right now, it's twenty two. That's twenty
Speaker 1: two to one. That's how you'd say that, right plus
Speaker 1: twenty two hundred. I might have to do that. Just
Speaker 1: throw a little bit on it. You never know, Yes,
Speaker 1: you fucking you never know. There's a lot of great
Speaker 1: football teams. Now we're talking about field goal kickers. San
Speaker 1: fran It was a moody Jake moody. He was having
Speaker 1: a tough he was having tough. It wasn't was it
Speaker 1: was in there was he back. Yeah, that's right to day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: are you talking about a tough day? Deebo just grabbing
Speaker 1: the throat or mushing the long snapper.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And dude, listen, Deebo is like just he's like
Speaker 2: he's built like Michaelchandler. He's just a pit bull. Like
Speaker 2: you look at me, like all this you just built
Speaker 2: different airbelt chokes out the long snapper and the long
Speaker 2: snapper doesn't back down, gets in his face.
Speaker 1: I like it, like it was spicy. That's one where
Speaker 1: you don't know if they just go down in the tank.
Speaker 1: Obviously they come back and win the game, which is
Speaker 1: a positive thing. It's like, all right, just boys being boys,
Speaker 1: a little brotherhood over there. But I mean it's just
Speaker 1: so disrespectful.
Speaker 2: It was high. Yeah, that's crazy. I mean, yeah, that
Speaker 2: is nuts. People aren't going to talk about like that.
Speaker 2: That was a great game, and obviously that the forty
Speaker 2: nine Ers win. People are are not talking about enough.
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield stiff arming Nick Bosa, stick on a U
Speaker 2: was it a te gets it, holds his ass off,
Speaker 2: and Nick Bosa built like g I Joe dude, built
Speaker 2: like a fucking action and then gets that thing out,
Speaker 2: no problem, just absolutely nuts.
Speaker 1: Yeah coming off the election. Now, if you took the
Speaker 1: problem both having sack, you did get that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: you step on Bosa coming off the election like that's
Speaker 1: a highlight. Yeah, And Baker's been balling. It kind of
Speaker 1: sucks that the Bucks are in the spot that they're
Speaker 1: in without Mike Evans and Chris Godwin because he's been
Speaker 1: playing his balls off. Man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is one of my favorite stories is Baker Mayfield,
Speaker 2: dude being like having the career he's had, being the
Speaker 2: first overall pick all that stuff and then still doing it,
Speaker 2: still doing it and resurrecting his career. I feel like
Speaker 2: that's my key word of this this podcast is resurrection.
Speaker 2: You brought up taking a Lion's money line. I did
Speaker 2: the same thing in our group chat when I heard
Speaker 2: whispers about Georgia being down against Ole miss That's why
Speaker 2: I went to Jing. Just fucking heartbreaking.
Speaker 4: Dude.
Speaker 2: You look at your like, yeah, they are gonna come
Speaker 2: back and win it, and you go and like, I
Speaker 2: didn't watch that game, but I checked back in it
Speaker 2: obviously didn't go to mine.
Speaker 1: Was pure emotion. I was angry when I went in
Speaker 1: to be like, all right, they're gonna come back and
Speaker 1: fucking win this. Iowa State. Their defense let me down
Speaker 1: against Kansas, and I was watching that game too, and
Speaker 1: they were almost like coming back, like they were making
Speaker 1: it spicy there in the end. But that quarterback for
Speaker 1: Kansas was just playing his balls off, man. But the
Speaker 1: I would say defense was let me down. I check
Speaker 1: in on the Georgia, Oh Miss game and it's like
Speaker 1: that wasn't angry. They're gonna get back here. Money line,
Speaker 1: money line Live bet.
Speaker 2: Would your emotions affected my back game? Yeah, that's okay. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we'll be all right. We're gonna be all right.
Speaker 1: Through that Carson back man.
Speaker 2: Playing like I tell you what I know.
Speaker 1: We're talking about college. Before we jump into the college,
Speaker 1: you were talking about the best game, the best game
Speaker 1: of the week being the Bengals and Ravens. That was incredible, incredible,
Speaker 1: dud and JP we do have our fantasy league going
Speaker 1: on right now. Congrats to you having Jamar Chase. He
Speaker 1: put up like fifty five points in fantasy.
Speaker 2: Was going, yeah, man, that is that's pretty wild. It's
Speaker 2: just just the Ravens going down the field and scoring
Speaker 2: and then two plays later Joe Burrow just to Jamar Cha.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Just fucking crazy.
Speaker 1: I know, I know.
Speaker 7: Crazy.
Speaker 1: Another one, you feel bad for Joe Burrow like he's
Speaker 1: been playing at an MVP level and the Bengals just
Speaker 1: can't can't get those can't protect him.
Speaker 2: Dude, they're not hits this kid is taking. Is just crazy.
Speaker 1: People.
Speaker 2: I was I don't know who was saying it, but
Speaker 2: someone was talking about Joe Burrow might want to get
Speaker 2: traded because he's just not being protected.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, that I mean, the Bengals ain't getting rid
Speaker 1: of Joe. No shot, literly, you had to put a
Speaker 1: gun to the gym. You're talking about you talking about
Speaker 1: quarterbacks taking a hit. Did you see fucking Kyler Murray?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: Oh, bro, pull that clip up for me.
Speaker 1: Let me take a peek at Quincy Williams. Right fifty
Speaker 1: six for the Jets, comes off the edge, comes off
Speaker 1: the edge. I'm talking. This is like old school throwback.
Speaker 1: Comes off the edge of the left side. Kyler Murray
Speaker 1: doesn't see him and his helmet goes like fucking twenty yards.
Speaker 1: Check this out. Watch this get the internet going here,
Speaker 1: here we go, check this out. Run no way.
Speaker 2: Two plays later, throws the TD beautiful, I.
Speaker 1: Mean, gets murdered. Arizona's been playing good man. Yeah, Cooper
Speaker 1: Comstock a graphic designer. He's big in the call duty
Speaker 1: as well, he says, he who is also an Arizona
Speaker 1: Cardinals fan. He's he's saying that Kyler Murray is three
Speaker 1: and o since Call Duty dropped.
Speaker 2: Dude, stats you're looking for when with the boys?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe man, maybe that was.
Speaker 1: The entire time playing good bro. Cardinals. Cardinals are sneaky, tough.
Speaker 1: It's one where they when they win it, I know.
Speaker 1: For me, I'll just I guess this is my brain.
Speaker 1: But they win a game and I'm thinking they're streaky.
Speaker 1: They're gonna fall off at some point. They're streaky, They're
Speaker 1: gonna fall up at some point. But they've been handling
Speaker 1: business weekend and weekends.
Speaker 2: Yes, dude, I'm excited to see the Cardinals and shadowed
Speaker 2: Arizona dude, the fair Weather fans are starting to get
Speaker 2: juiced up a little bit out there in Arizona.
Speaker 1: Might jump on the bank, yeah, I mean I got yeah,
Speaker 1: I might jump on the bandwagon. Yeah, yeah, you know
Speaker 1: they got I was gonna say their game this week,
Speaker 1: but they have a buye this week.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, right now, right now in the NFL,
Speaker 8: who would you say is leading the MVP race?
Speaker 1: I mean you gotta kind of say Lamar, right yeah,
Speaker 1: Josh Allen Lamar.
Speaker 2: Obviously we got Kansas City Buffalo coming up. Yeah, this weekend.
Speaker 2: That's gonna be a hell of a game somehow. I
Speaker 2: bet actually the Bills win that game, because Bills usually
Speaker 2: win the regular season and then they meet again in
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Yeah, and the Chiefs win the playoffs. Dude,
Speaker 2: you got Lamar.
Speaker 1: You got Lamar leading it plus one hundred twenty.
Speaker 2: Three touchdowns last year and he won the MVP. He's
Speaker 2: got twenty three right now. Yeah, that's that's fucking nuts, dude.
Speaker 1: It's crazy to me that Mahomes is number three. I
Speaker 1: do get it. The other undefeated just because the stat
Speaker 1: line is nowhere. These other cats, Bro, Derek, no, not
Speaker 1: up there. You got Mahomes plus then fifty, Jalen Hurts
Speaker 1: plus twelve hundred, Kyler Murray plus fifteen hundred, Joe Burrow
Speaker 1: twenty to one, Jane Daniels twenty to one. Golf. I'm
Speaker 1: sure he's he's gonna drop a little bit since he
Speaker 1: just threw five picks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ry's plus five thousand one.
Speaker 1: This last part of the year is gonna obviously decide
Speaker 1: all of it. Dude.
Speaker 2: The health, Yeah, they do what Brian Kelly say. Octobers
Speaker 2: for pretenders, Novembers for contenders.
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly can suck this dig.
Speaker 2: That's Garrett Hargas Alabama fan legit. I don't think there's
Speaker 2: a more of a unique like oil and water mix
Speaker 2: than Brian Kelly and l s U.
Speaker 1: Yeah, culturally we canange it. We can transition to college.
Speaker 1: Because the Bears dead done, done, done, and I hate
Speaker 1: it for Big Cat. Yeah, Caleb Williams sacked nine times.
Speaker 1: I want to say Adam Schefter sent him into the
Speaker 1: goo lag by ratioing him last week. I guess him
Speaker 1: and Justin Fields have very similar stats in their first
Speaker 1: amount of starts for the Bears. But the Bears are
Speaker 1: They're done, They're dead Cowboys? Are they tanking? They're in
Speaker 1: a ship? They have a ship? Show hey and helped
Speaker 1: me out? Like I haven't followed the Cowboys that closely
Speaker 1: all year. Why isn't Trey Lance the backup? QB? Like,
Speaker 1: why is it Cooper Rush over Trey Lance?
Speaker 4: Yesterday?
Speaker 1: I saw him going because Cooper just wasn't playing well.
Speaker 1: But when I saw him playing, I'm thinking to myself,
Speaker 1: why wasn't he the guy the backup to begin with?
Speaker 9: I don't know like the correct answer on it. My
Speaker 9: only guest would be Rush has been with the Cowboys
Speaker 9: for like four or five years now, whereas Lance just
Speaker 9: got there.
Speaker 1: So maybe he's been there.
Speaker 10: Rush played last year I think even like four and
Speaker 10: oh and the games.
Speaker 2: He started, that's a better stat Just because you're there longer,
Speaker 2: it doesn't mean you're gonna play.
Speaker 1: I mean, but if you're you.
Speaker 2: Start four to o, that's that's good. If you're Dak
Speaker 2: Prescott too, you signed that deal, you get the hamstring
Speaker 2: and he elects to get the hamstring surgery. Smart move,
Speaker 2: didn't get a smart move.
Speaker 1: Get out, get out, take wounds, enjoy the holidays, get
Speaker 1: the new coaching staff.
Speaker 2: After the season's over, let's rea, let's re let's figure
Speaker 2: out what's going on all around the.
Speaker 1: Saw ceede lamy dropped a touchdown pass. Dude, direct sunlight,
Speaker 1: and that's been a common theme. I will say I
Speaker 1: have had experience. Jason Witten caught one on your boy.
Speaker 1: Let's just I was just go and say he probably
Speaker 1: would have caught it anyway, but.
Speaker 2: I don't say that.
Speaker 1: With the excuses blah blah blah. Dude, that sunlight is
Speaker 1: fucking crazy. I had him. I was like, I think
Speaker 1: we were in cover four and I was a three player,
Speaker 1: so I was off. Jason went, but I remember just
Speaker 1: airing on this side of being like high because I
Speaker 1: just you can't see when you look back, and then
Speaker 1: when they throwed it, and when he threw it and
Speaker 1: caught it, I'm almost just seeing his silhouette because you
Speaker 1: can't see anything on the offensive side that sunlight. I
Speaker 1: swear to god, it is brutal.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jason saw it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, great catch by Jason. Yeah, fll the fact about
Speaker 1: Jason Witten, his one thousandth catch was on your boy
Speaker 1: for real. Yeah, Jason, Jason, we need that ball Washington.
Speaker 1: And I knew when he caught it and everything. I
Speaker 1: was like, Oh, that's a stousand catch, that's that's history.
Speaker 2: Was it the first catch of the day, He's doing
Speaker 2: one more or what?
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Yeah, I let him have it, you know,
Speaker 1: I let him have it. Knew he's getting long in
Speaker 1: the tooth. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: I had to make sure he got that ball. I
Speaker 2: had to make sure he caught it.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the I mean and uh surem you were saying that.
Speaker 2: Ceedee Lamb went to Jerry Jones and was like, hey,
Speaker 2: you gotta put some curtains or something on there, and
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones said no.
Speaker 1: J Jones said where you know, you know where the
Speaker 1: sun is? Where's the moon? He said, some ship like that.
Speaker 9: And then Ceedee Lamb drops a wide open touchdown pass
Speaker 9: in the end zone and Sun's directly in his eyes
Speaker 9: and he even turned to his teammates and it was like,
Speaker 9: I didn't see a thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I swear that that is really you can't see ship.
Speaker 2: We have had a lot of contents on the right spot. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we've had a lot of contender talk on this podcast.
Speaker 2: What about the Eagles, how do you feel about them?
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles have an extremely talented team, they're
Speaker 1: obviously they're going to go to the playoffs, but they're
Speaker 1: gonna lose in the playoffs because of situational ball, and
Speaker 1: I think they'll just get out coached. It's all gonna
Speaker 1: be yeah, yeh, Mitch out On. I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people are.
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people. That's the biggest question
Speaker 4: mark around them.
Speaker 1: Is their teams really good? Yea. And they're gonna be
Speaker 1: happy every week when they win, but the moment they lose,
Speaker 1: they're going to get out again.
Speaker 2: Gotta be the hardest place to play in the NFL
Speaker 2: for sure. Yeah, Philly is just psychotic with their with

Speaker 2: Going down to that seventh line right there. Sherman who
Speaker 2: does a pre production meeting every single day. He put
Speaker 2: a little note says our Michigan and Nebraska bowling this year.
Speaker 1: I'd like to think we are. I think the PTSC
Speaker 1: that's coming on top of me right now, which it
Speaker 1: was last week is the fact that we got the
Speaker 1: five games. We were five and three last year, and
Speaker 1: then we lost out on games that were very winnable
Speaker 1: and you.
Speaker 2: Have a tough schedule at the end.
Speaker 1: It's not it's tough. It's it's definitely tough when all
Speaker 1: of this is happening. But they're still We're in the
Speaker 1: same situation where these are winnable games to where we
Speaker 1: could go bowling. I just have no fucking clue. I
Speaker 1: want the best. Everybody knows I want the best from Nebraska.
Speaker 1: Trust me, I'm taking this. I think we're eight and
Speaker 1: a half point hunderdogs against USC. That's to me, that's
Speaker 1: a steal. We're gonna get that. I just don't know
Speaker 1: if we get the money line part, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. I don't know if we get the w part. Yeah.
Speaker 1: That motherfucker who put the graphic of us lose in
Speaker 1: the BIE week that was psychotic, That was crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, but I don't know. We got USC,
Speaker 1: we got Wisconsin, we got Iowa.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got Northwestern in Ohio state.
Speaker 1: I believe too. I just for the people, for the
Speaker 1: the the cloud that is over us, the cloud that
Speaker 1: is over us. You can obviously see how we dropped
Speaker 1: these motherfuckers. However, we've made some We've made some adjustments
Speaker 1: during the BIE week. We've done a lot of self scouting.
Speaker 1: We brought in that offensive genius Guru. They're calling him
Speaker 1: the offensive Yoda, coming from the University of Houston. He's
Speaker 1: coming in and kind of giving his object the opinion
Speaker 1: seeing it from afar. We've made some changes. You just
Speaker 1: need the boys show to show up this week, locked in,
Speaker 1: ready to fucking go. We gotta beat USC. We gotta
Speaker 1: beat the trick, gotta beat us. Gotta beat the trick,
Speaker 1: not Us.
Speaker 2: It's gotta be Wisconsin.
Speaker 1: It's got to be not Wisconsin for the border, battle
Speaker 1: for the border.
Speaker 2: Yeah, three shots.
Speaker 10: Is there a world where you we see a bus
Speaker 10: and Bowl postseason matchup.
Speaker 2: I don't think they'll put two big ten teams in
Speaker 2: a bowl game. It would be elite though, That would
Speaker 2: be Music City Bowl.
Speaker 1: You saying that, The twinkles starting to come to my eye,
Speaker 1: like oh yeah, and them tals like you have two
Speaker 1: big ten teams.
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, he's right, Yeah, probably not probably, but
Speaker 2: we would love to see it. Y'all have influence.
Speaker 1: If we had to set Bowl and we got to
Speaker 1: pick our teams. Of course, if Coachtball playoff, get us
Speaker 1: on the committee. Let us just decide our bowl game.
Speaker 2: If both teams end up six and six, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: just give us what we want.
Speaker 1: We got to have it here and have the bus
Speaker 1: on the sideline.
Speaker 2: Look, listen, we we it's time. It's time for it
Speaker 2: coming to Jesus with Michigan. Like you can look at
Speaker 2: that last game of the year and you could probably
Speaker 2: probably expect us to lose that one. Yeah, it just
Speaker 2: was very proud of the way the boys fought against Indiana.
Speaker 1: Proud you guys. You guys did put up a fight.
Speaker 2: Was a fight?
Speaker 1: Was it? Seventeen three and a half?
Speaker 2: Yeah, seventeen three and a half came back in a
Speaker 2: big way. And dude, we had every opportunity in the
Speaker 2: world to win that game, I know, and it really
Speaker 2: just turned into we could not push the ball down
Speaker 2: the field vertically. It is. It's infuriating, literally so infuriating.
Speaker 2: That night I got in Bryce Underwoods DMS and I said,
Speaker 2: what do I gotta do to get you to Michigan? Sincerely,
Speaker 2: Taylor low One, I'll.
Speaker 4: Tell you what I need.
Speaker 2: That boy.
Speaker 4: Saying he's on it.
Speaker 1: He's working, like I know, that's a guy he's identified
Speaker 1: and now you learn that, uh that Stallions is his.
Speaker 2: One on one coach right now, who's one on one coach?
Speaker 1: Connor Stallions is like mentoring. He's yeah, joined his high
Speaker 1: school team and he is like his coach. He just
Speaker 1: scores that coach.
Speaker 2: Good motherfuckers. That's exactly what we need right now. I
Speaker 2: literally caught myself watching a high school player's highlight tape
Speaker 2: this weekend. Kick and ball kid can ball, kacking ball, strong,
Speaker 2: athletic dual threat, Stallion playing it down the field, accuracy,
Speaker 2: He's got it all. He's got it all. And I'm
Speaker 2: sure the kids from Michigan right he is from Detroit,
Speaker 2: like bro come home, Come home now. He's been committed
Speaker 2: to LSU since like January seventh. We can flip that dude.
Speaker 1: If I mean the way else she's been losing these games,
Speaker 1: it's definitely possibit.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, we get him, we can, we can
Speaker 2: do this now. My our biggest hope for a bowl
Speaker 2: game is Northwestern.
Speaker 1: Hey, Northwestern can get frisky every now and then, every
Speaker 1: now and then, click on him, click on them. I
Speaker 1: want to see their schedule.
Speaker 4: Don't care.
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't get Northwestern on international soils.
Speaker 2: Northwestern, It's after it.
Speaker 1: I mean, bro, they beat Maryland thirty seven to ten.
Speaker 2: Yeah, beat Damn twenty three to three. Well, I will
Speaker 2: beat him forty to fourteen.
Speaker 1: Eastern Illinois. They put him in a body bag. They
Speaker 1: put him in a call in thirty one to seven.
Speaker 2: All right, bro, get out of there.
Speaker 1: Listen, this is gonna be Michieg is gonna be favored
Speaker 1: by three and a half in this game.
Speaker 2: And you know what all I need is to win
Speaker 2: by one.
Speaker 1: Just need a win, wine, just win by one. I'm bowling.
Speaker 2: I'm not one hundred percent, but I'm ninety five percent sure.
Speaker 2: I'm taking my oldest win. I'm taking win to that game.
Speaker 2: I was gonna take her to Oregon, but I was like,
Speaker 2: she started, she's starting to understand, she's starting to understand football.
Speaker 2: She sees when Michigan's on the TV. She says, go blue,
Speaker 2: And I was like, I can't let her.
Speaker 1: You need her first football experience. Yeah, need her get
Speaker 1: to get a win.
Speaker 2: When Dan Landing sent me cry laughy faces, I knew
Speaker 2: I was in a blender, right, then and there we
Speaker 2: knew we were in big, big trouble.
Speaker 1: Dude, I tell you what, I think Oregon and Indiana
Speaker 1: are gonna be playing in the Big Ten Title game.
Speaker 2: But we need Hey, here's here's a nasty thought.
Speaker 1: Let's say they beat Ohio State. They're gonna go to
Speaker 1: the Big Ten title game play Oregon. Somebody's obviously gonna lose.
Speaker 1: But I think you're gonna see Oregon, Indiana, and probably
Speaker 1: Penn State getting the playoff. I don't think they will
Speaker 1: with two losses. I know they beat Penn State Penn States, right,
Speaker 1: but if Penn State, if Penn State wins out, they're
Speaker 1: only gonna be one lost team, and that loss is
Speaker 1: gonna beat to Ohio State, which came down in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. But I think if if Ohio State loses
Speaker 1: to Indiana, Ohio State is gonna be a two lost
Speaker 1: team on the outside looking in, and I think Penn
Speaker 1: State gets in over Ohio State.
Speaker 9: I do have the ultimate spin zone for Taylor. If
Speaker 9: Northwestern beats Michigan, Michigan has the opportunity to both become
Speaker 9: ball eligible and ruin Ohio State season with that last
Speaker 9: game of the year.
Speaker 1: That would be.
Speaker 9: Beautiful.
Speaker 2: But let's just beat Northwest.
Speaker 1: Let's beat Northwestern. But you have we still have that
Speaker 1: right because if they beat Northwestern and Ohio State still
Speaker 1: beats Indiana, they could still do these They'll be in
Speaker 1: the same exact spot. Yeah, I.
Speaker 2: I hate saying this and I am I am fighting
Speaker 2: against myself a little bit. But did Indiana Indiana playing Michigan?
Speaker 2: Was that a trap game for Indiana because they're playing
Speaker 2: on hostate? We were talking, I'm like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: is that where we've gotten to?
Speaker 4: Is that just this year?
Speaker 1: Just this, just this year Justice, you guys are coming
Speaker 1: off of Natty. You still got the ring obviously, you
Speaker 1: guys are going all in on this, this quarterback that's
Speaker 1: committed to LSU. You guys are you guys are gonna
Speaker 1: be pumping money. I was finding myself on the on
Speaker 1: three site and kind of looking at uh Ni l
Speaker 1: like per player in recruiting class, Like you guys are
Speaker 1: top ten, So you guys are starting to spend money. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you guys are spending like ninety thousand per I
Speaker 1: want to say Ohio States in like ninety three or
Speaker 1: ninety four.
Speaker 2: Just f Yeah, we gotta we gotta get them there.
Speaker 1: You guys will be back. You got.
Speaker 2: Tough's tough here.
Speaker 1: The SEC is what's gonna to be fun watch on
Speaker 1: fold Yeah, JP, I've tried doing a lot of mental
Speaker 1: gymnastics on seeing North South Carolina. I just don't think
Speaker 1: it happens.
Speaker 2: It's all right though, it's okay.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you who's been flying under the radar is
Speaker 1: Old Tennessee. It feels like with all these teams that
Speaker 1: get talked about in the SEC, but Tennessee is a
Speaker 1: one loss team. They got Georgia. You guys can just
Speaker 1: cant Georgia all the way.
Speaker 10: Or it's gonna become the most just up in the air.
Speaker 10: There's not gonna be five SC teams in the playoffs.
Speaker 10: We know that it'll be Texas out.
Speaker 4: But well, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Texas is kind of has a tougher schedule of all
Speaker 1: the teams that are you know, a lost to lost time.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 10: I think Texas does kind of have like a pretty
Speaker 10: easy walk, Like their schedule is really not that hard.
Speaker 4: They played like two.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because at the time we thought Michigan was gonna
Speaker 1: be a big one.
Speaker 2: There their biggest They have a and m last game
Speaker 2: of the year.
Speaker 1: Who do they have? They have Arkansas, Kentucky and A
Speaker 1: and M.
Speaker 4: I mean they handle Florida.
Speaker 1: Ugusos and Kentucky are known to get a little get
Speaker 1: a little crazy.
Speaker 2: There knows to be a wild card.
Speaker 9: Arkansas Arkansas is a huge rivalry game that hasn't been
Speaker 9: played eight years.
Speaker 1: Except for and A and M. That's gonna.
Speaker 2: Games just blow up.
Speaker 10: So Texas obviously handled Florida, which isn't saying much, but
Speaker 10: I just saw the stat the entire state of Florida
Speaker 10: between college and NFL this week went oh and eleven.
Speaker 10: And I know it's Tuesday, but Monday night Miami Dolphins
Speaker 10: have a very diemption shot to not go completely like
Speaker 10: winless sont.
Speaker 1: I know it's not like a massive wind like Dummy
Speaker 1: and Florida like that, but Florida was playing Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: they lost that quarterback like that was when I stayed
Speaker 1: away from gambling wise, just because you just don't know
Speaker 1: what Texas, but they handled their ass.
Speaker 8: Bro So I have question if Georgia beats Tennessee this week.
Speaker 1: Bring up the standings for the SEC shrewall.
Speaker 8: He asked this, who's going to the SEC Championship say
Speaker 8: we go Alabama goes and we lose. Do we miss
Speaker 8: on the playoff by having a third loss but going
Speaker 8: to the SEC Championship, like you almost don't want to go,
Speaker 8: which sounds if Tennessee wins.
Speaker 1: I think if Tennessee wins and you got well, you
Speaker 1: would need Texas to lose too.
Speaker 4: What do you mean Texas is going?
Speaker 1: But if Texas loses the A and M right, would
Speaker 1: they still get in?
Speaker 4: Multiple things could happen because A and M.
Speaker 1: Right now seven and two say they went out, right,
Speaker 1: there'll be a two loss team. Alabama wins out, that's
Speaker 1: a two lost team. Texas is a two lost team obviously,
Speaker 1: the yeah.
Speaker 4: We almost want to go to the SEC championship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because if you say, you guys went to the
Speaker 1: SEC Championship, but you guys versus Tennessee and you crazy
Speaker 1: lost to Tennessee be out of it? Yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 1: Because we're in this hypothetical. We're saying Tennessee beach Georgia,
Speaker 1: Georgia will be out of it. I think Ole Miss
Speaker 1: they have an easy schedule their last few Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think when I was looking they have an easier schedule.
Speaker 1: Ole Miss has yeah, Florida, Mississippi State, so they take
Speaker 1: care of those like they'll be up there. Go back
Speaker 1: to the standings, you'll have Tennessee. It comes down at
Speaker 1: A and M and Texas. Let's just say Texas wins
Speaker 1: since they're one lost team. But you'll have Tennessee and
Speaker 1: Texas in the championship. Both of them will go to
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Ole Miss will be a two loss team
Speaker 1: on the outside looking and so Obama. Both of you
Speaker 1: guys will go to the playoffs. And MISSOO does not
Speaker 1: have a tough end of the year. Missoo's a two
Speaker 1: lost team right now and they have uh yeah, which yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: you guys South Carolina, you got Missippi State and then
Speaker 1: you got Arkansas. But say they were to beat you guys,
Speaker 1: you'd have another two loss team with Bama. You would
Speaker 1: have a lot of chaos going to that collegewell playoffs.
Speaker 2: It's hard to think about l s U. Are they
Speaker 2: handling business? Yeah, they're three and two, they're three and
Speaker 2: two in division.
Speaker 1: No, they're six, they're six and three. They just lost.
Speaker 1: Yeah they yeah, because they lost, you guys, must they're out. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was an elimination game. They're out, but you'd have missoo,
Speaker 1: oh miss Alabama. Well, if A and M loses the Texas,
Speaker 1: they'll be a three loss they'll be out. But those
Speaker 1: three Alabama, oh, miss Miszoo two loss teams, Tennessee and Texas,
Speaker 1: they'll be in. You'll be scrapping for I mean, is
Speaker 1: there a world where five teams go from the SEC.
Speaker 1: It's possible. Missouri is LSU has three losses. I have Alabama.
Speaker 2: They lost the USC, right, yeah, they lost the USC,
Speaker 2: but they have three losses.
Speaker 1: But that doesn't we're talking about college foot will playoff
Speaker 1: yeah oh no, no, no, no, I mean it could,
Speaker 1: but they need a lot They're like one of those
Speaker 1: teams that need a lot of things to happen for
Speaker 1: them to like sneak in that scenario.
Speaker 2: You're gonna pull up the bracket this week in locker
Speaker 2: room's gotta be Tennessee, Georgia. Yo.
Speaker 1: I flipped on the Boise State game for literally three minutes,
Speaker 1: and right when I turned it on, like Ashton Genty
Speaker 1: popped one all the way to like the goal line.
Speaker 2: Kid's incredible, awesome, And they were sitting right, they were
Speaker 2: sitting at twelve. I don't know where they're at now,
Speaker 2: but I would love to see they gotta be in, right,
Speaker 2: what's the rest of their schedule? Do they play anybody?
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know, but you want that dude
Speaker 4: in the play.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I want him to get the single season
Speaker 2: record too, and I want him to get it bad.

Speaker 1: feel about that?
Speaker 2: Boys? Tortillas, eggs.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's that's o. D that's a little
Speaker 1: that's that's too much. I think I will say this though.
Speaker 1: I love the entertainment factor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of like it.
Speaker 1: I like the entertainment factor of not condoning people throwing
Speaker 1: a lot of trash on the field.
Speaker 2: However, but there's something about the w W W W
Speaker 2: E aspect college football where you're like, I kind of
Speaker 2: like it. Yeah, I kind of miss leave it out
Speaker 2: of the NFL head coach proper business stuff.
Speaker 1: And hey, coach had to get on the mic during
Speaker 1: the Colorado game and tell the fans to stop throwing
Speaker 1: trash on I like it. I like it.
Speaker 2: That fires me up, dude. And uh it was it?
Speaker 2: Shiloh Is that his name?
Speaker 1: Should?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: No, no, Shiloh Sanders. He was like egging him on too.
Speaker 2: He threw more stuff, and he threw his stuff back.
Speaker 2: He's like, give it to me. That's the kind of tortilla.
Speaker 2: Put it in his pants a little snack for later.
Speaker 9: To the base. The fans keep the tortillas. The Texas
Speaker 9: Tech fans keep the tortillas hidden in their bridges to
Speaker 9: get them into the stadium.
Speaker 2: So so that's how you transfer things. That's how you
Speaker 2: stuff out there.
Speaker 9: Players don't be doing that.
Speaker 2: I would cast and get you that itch. You don't
Speaker 2: want that itch.
Speaker 9: The raider rash is what they call it.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's the raider rash.
Speaker 1: That's the thing. It's like if you're the if you're
Speaker 1: the home team seeing the trash getting thrown on the field,
Speaker 1: you're kind of guys, they cut the ship off. But
Speaker 1: if you're the away team getting the trash, you kind
Speaker 1: of like want that ship. You want to get everything
Speaker 1: even more. I kind of got mess, bring the noise,
Speaker 1: bring the Yeah.
Speaker 2: I wish there was a way for it to be like,
Speaker 2: I don't know a classier way to do it, but
Speaker 2: I do like the people things getting throw out. The
Speaker 2: players have a section where they can like during timeouts,
Speaker 2: yeah yeah, yeah, like a bucket, just throw stuff at.
Speaker 4: A hot dog.

Speaker 6: end of it.
Speaker 2: Cale Canard, Yeah, college football is really shaping up to
Speaker 2: be this is the best year to Yeah, because last
Speaker 2: year there was a lot of people are an uproar
Speaker 2: about it because that four that's five, six, seven teams.
Speaker 2: People are like, all these teams could be in the
Speaker 2: play off. Now it's like it's just exciting. Here's a thought,
Speaker 2: do we get do we start getting into a situation
Speaker 2: where your championship, like the SEC championship, the Bay Ten
Speaker 2: championship with both teams know they're gonna be in do
Speaker 2: they do they sit? Guys? Do we start getting into
Speaker 2: that world at all where championships like SEC championships don't
Speaker 2: matter as much anymore by ten championships.
Speaker 1: I don't think, because if you win, you're gonna get
Speaker 1: a you're most likely you're gonna get a you're gonna
Speaker 1: get a bye.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and where you're like the situation we're in where
Speaker 7: innswer me this too, Like if the times you get
Speaker 7: a buye are they hosting a collegewall playf gum or
Speaker 7: is that only the first round?
Speaker 1: Only? Okay, first round? But yeah, there's gonna be there's
Speaker 1: obviously always something to play for with the championship game
Speaker 1: to where you're gonna get a bye, more than likely
Speaker 1: gonna get bye. There are five teams that come out
Speaker 1: of it. They gotta get seated. But you do host
Speaker 1: a home game.
Speaker 2: But if you have a guy that's like a little
Speaker 2: bit injured, he's nursing injury, maybe he's gonna inchor or
Speaker 2: something like that, I think you're more inclined to tell
Speaker 2: the player, Hey, going this one out, we're gonna make
Speaker 2: the playoffs anyway, let's get you healthy and ready for
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks from Yeah, because when do the
Speaker 2: when when's the first round of the playoff starts? That's earlier, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: home playoff games in college is not wild the best.
Speaker 1: That is the fucking best, and you would be you
Speaker 1: would be situated of being like a six seed hosting
Speaker 1: a home game. So I could see where, Yeah, there
Speaker 1: could be like a unique situation and where somebody has
Speaker 1: something that's like, hey, let's just not risk it because
Speaker 1: if we win, we obviously get a buy, but if
Speaker 1: we happen to lose, we'll still be hosting a home
Speaker 1: playoff game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, let's say Organ wins out goes to the
Speaker 2: Big Than Championship, they're one. Is there any thought process
Speaker 2: to orgon where it's like, well, it doesn't really matter,
Speaker 2: we're gonna be if we lose, will be worst case
Speaker 2: scenario four. We're gonna get a buy no matter.
Speaker 1: What worst case scenario. They would be six our best
Speaker 1: case scenario if they lose.
Speaker 2: I'm saying, does that thought process going to Dan Lanning's
Speaker 2: head at all?
Speaker 1: If you're playing in India, you're trying to win, so
Speaker 1: you got to prove Yeah, you are, you not entertained?
Speaker 1: You you want to buy game, because again one through
Speaker 1: four is only four teams that win their championship game,
Speaker 1: and five goes to the five goes to the highest
Speaker 1: ranked conference winner. So if you lose like the best
Speaker 1: you can do, like your Oregon and you're undefeated, and
Speaker 1: say you drop that Big Ten championship, the best your
Speaker 1: best case scenario six. Your worst case scenario is probably seven.
Speaker 2: So there's there's no room for that at all.
Speaker 9: To say yeah, ranked non conference winner, which I think is.
Speaker 1: What you meant to say high. Okay, highest ranked non conference.
Speaker 9: Yes, so in that case, it would be like Ohio State.
Speaker 9: But if Indiana beats so high or I always say it.
Speaker 1: But it could be the same scenario with the Oregon
Speaker 1: being underfeed and they dropped one of the Big Ten,
Speaker 1: like they could be number five, right because they could
Speaker 1: be the highest ranked non conference winner.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's gonna get juicy, boys, it's gonna.
Speaker 1: Get because if somebody's a little bit injured and they
Speaker 1: can go or not go, you win. So that way
Speaker 1: you have that extra bye week, You have that extra
Speaker 1: week baked in on top of they'll are to get
Speaker 1: like a.
Speaker 4: Week off right, I'm with it.
Speaker 1: What ahead an ad yal sit.
Speaker 2: An ad, let's sit an ad read for the boys
Speaker 2: with these boys now eight of them this week boys,
Speaker 2: eight of them. If you're wondering, we've.
Speaker 1: Been talking a lot of a lot of bets, a
Speaker 1: lot of gambling.
Speaker 2: A lot of gambling with Draft Kings. The NFL season
Speaker 2: is rolling along and the contenders are separating from the pack.
Speaker 2: The one thing, the one thing that hasn't changed this season,
Speaker 2: DraftKings Sportsbook, an official sport, an official sportsbook partner of
Speaker 2: the NFL, is the number one place to bet on touchdowns.
Speaker 2: Fade to the corner of the end zone, running back
Speaker 2: breaks to the line and gallop sixty yards to a score.
Speaker 2: We don't care how they get them. We want to
Speaker 2: bet on touchdowns at DraftKings, and DraftKings is the best
Speaker 2: place to do it. Ready to play to your first bet?
Speaker 2: Try betting on something simple like a player scoring a touchdown.
Speaker 2: Go to DraftKings Sportsbook app and make your pick. Here's
Speaker 2: a reason for new customers to do a touchdown dance
Speaker 2: of their own. Bet five dollars and get two two
Speaker 2: bonus bets. Instantly score big with the DraftKings sportsbook gap
Speaker 2: the number one place to bet touchdowns. Download the DraftKings
Speaker 2: sportsbook app and use code bust. That's b us for
Speaker 2: new customers to get two hundred dollars in bonus bets
Speaker 2: when you bet just five bucks only at DraftKings. The
Speaker 2: crown is yours.
Speaker 1: Speaking of touchdown bets, bro just for the love of
Speaker 1: fucking God, just bet the boys. Partly.
Speaker 2: I know there's a massive curse on it. Real quick.
Speaker 1: You know, somebody had a good comment last week, I
Speaker 1: think in the comment section, which is a great idea,
Speaker 1: and we're so fucking stupid. We just we never think
Speaker 1: of dumb bullshit like this. But it's like they're like, hey,
Speaker 1: when somebody uses their bet, like say Delaney, how he
Speaker 1: picks Derek Henry every week. It's kind of like a
Speaker 1: survivor pick, Like once you pick him, you can't pick
Speaker 1: him again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's making it harder. Also, let's just get
Speaker 2: a win.
Speaker 1: But it's like, you can use Derek Henry. I can
Speaker 1: use Derek Henry. Delaney can. So that's three times in
Speaker 1: the year we can use Derek Henry. So it's like
Speaker 1: making Delaney think a little bit more. Vers is just
Speaker 1: always having Derek Henry.
Speaker 2: Yeah, when I saw James Cook score, I was like,
Speaker 2: we really because that was from the hip. I was
Speaker 2: just looking up defenses and yeah, I was just like
Speaker 2: so happy that because I thought Christian mccafree Harty scored
Speaker 2: and I went look to the stats. I go, god, no,
Speaker 2: and there was still a chance they still had a
Speaker 2: shot to get it done.
Speaker 1: But and you know where else were idiots.
Speaker 2: A lot of phases in life.
Speaker 1: But go ahead that we picked another touchdown win on
Speaker 1: a Thursday, a football game.
Speaker 2: But yeah, listen, we we can be better. There's a
Speaker 2: lot of areas we can be better in the game.
Speaker 2: Here's what we need. We just got to get a win.
Speaker 2: And I feel like if there's gonna be a week,
Speaker 2: it's going to be this week. Boys, why not this week?
Speaker 1: Why not this week? What if we just fucking every
Speaker 1: reason for the show this week to not be successful,
Speaker 1: And it's like, why not this week? Why not us?
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 2: There's literally one host and a band of the boys
Speaker 2: in the back. We're gonna we're gonna put this thing
Speaker 2: together and we're gonna hope they got like, literally the
Speaker 2: only pick that matters to me this week to bet
Speaker 2: the boys partlay. I know we just need it more
Speaker 2: than ever because we hit it a bunch last year.
Speaker 2: Last year, we hit those things consistently this week, Boys,
Speaker 2: this week.
Speaker 1: And since I'm not in it, I'll just throw you
Speaker 1: a few options to think about. Options that think about it.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, Because when I saw Devin
Speaker 1: Montgomery getting the end on the last time, I'm thinking, God,
Speaker 1: go ahead, Just damn it. Why did I pick handle
Speaker 1: with the options?
Speaker 2: Go ahead with the options?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, wait the options in the locker room
Speaker 1: this week?
Speaker 2: You're about to give us some game right now on
Speaker 2: a Monday morning while people are watching this on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Question Josh Jacobs. I love Josh Jacobs.
Speaker 3: I remember last year, you guys would do like Josh
Speaker 3: Allen over one and a half touchdown passes.
Speaker 1: It's just betting on touchdowns anytime touchdowns like quarterbacks. We
Speaker 1: trust me, we'd have been on that. Yeah, we'd have
Speaker 1: been on that.
Speaker 2: Josh Allen scoring a touchdown this week is not a
Speaker 2: bad thought.
Speaker 1: Though you did last week.
Speaker 2: I know, I know, I know I thought that too.
Speaker 2: I was like, God, damn it.
Speaker 1: Huh yeah, I do like two yeah, yeah, yeah, I think.
Speaker 2: Boys, that sounds terrible, That sounds a terrible idea. Yeah,
Speaker 2: just bet one guy multiple touchdowns.
Speaker 1: Let's go no, because Jamar got a couple less Thursday, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: telling you question is.
Speaker 2: Do we keep do we keep Derrick Henry in this week?
Speaker 2: Do we keep Derrick Henry in? Because part of me
Speaker 2: feels nervous? Find that's fair, that's fair, that's fair. Justin Jefferson,
Speaker 2: what's his name was?
Speaker 1: Sam?
Speaker 2: Sam? Donald had like three.
Speaker 1: Picks bijon Yeah, and shout out the Saints too, Like
Speaker 1: I was in on the Falcons and I think we
Speaker 1: might have did a rapid fire on the locker room
Speaker 1: and I just said the Falcons. I was on Falcons
Speaker 1: for Pro Football Football Show. But Big Cat flipped me.
Speaker 1: He was like, hey, interim head coach, this is uh
Speaker 1: the special teams coordinator Rizzy shout out Rizzy being then
Speaker 1: interim head coach. But Foster Morowe comes out, there's a
Speaker 1: leader amongst men. It's the same place book as like
Speaker 1: a BA. Like they're gonna have the energy, they're gonna
Speaker 1: have the juice. They just fired Dennis Allen. Their hype
Speaker 1: about Rizzy coming in.
Speaker 4: And so what a call?
Speaker 1: What what shots? The big cann't flipping me there, Rizzy
Speaker 1: got injured.
Speaker 10: I don't know if if he's all. You did a
Speaker 10: presser and he said someone came up behind him and
Speaker 10: like kind of like gave him a stinger. But he says,
Speaker 10: whole left arm went dumb.
Speaker 1: Bro, he like dropped those grabbing onto the grabbing on
Speaker 1: the lineman and I'm assuming saying like, hey, hold me up,
Speaker 1: stay right here with this.
Speaker 2: I saw the clip that I couldn't tell what was
Speaker 2: going on.
Speaker 4: I thought, A c.
Speaker 2: He's got himself a stinger. Huh, like a condition.
Speaker 4: I have.
Speaker 2: Any of you boys had gap not built for the
Speaker 2: a gap? Any boys in the back ever had a stinger?
Speaker 2: There is you're getting? That was kind of easy.
Speaker 1: What Sean Merriman was explaining last week when he went
Speaker 1: against Lorenzo O'Neill is the exact Those are all the
Speaker 1: exact moments on concussion stinger related stuff that I would get,
Speaker 1: like when I ran into that cat from the New
Speaker 1: Night Night motherfucker. Yeah, that stuff. It would always be
Speaker 1: those kind of moments to where everything kind of rushes
Speaker 1: to your face. It feels like a metal bat just
Speaker 1: hitting like a rail and everything in your body just
Speaker 1: goes yeah, limp for a moment.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one of the worst feelings as a stinger,
Speaker 2: especially a bad one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like when I went out, I was out for
Speaker 1: the uh ran down on kickoff, ran into the wrong person,
Speaker 1: and they basically said when I came in the next week,
Speaker 1: they called it like a spinal cord concussion, which.
Speaker 2: Is terrifying, sounds terrible, terrifying, so hard. Yeah, yeah, which
Speaker 2: a I've never felt a comment more than that. When
Speaker 2: I saw that, that's that's like a real bro, that's
Speaker 2: kind of the truth. Yeah, is you just wanna but
Speaker 2: it's got to be some play that like is incredible
Speaker 2: and you just lost your life on that play. But
Speaker 2: what a highlight, what a way to go on show
Speaker 2: it to that point and then once you go down
Speaker 2: cut the clip right then and there you.
Speaker 1: Go out the way you want to go out, playing
Speaker 1: the game you love, delivering it hit so hard that
Speaker 1: you kill yourself.
Speaker 2: I saw, Yeah, No, that's a stinger right there. For sure.
Speaker 1: That's me saying like, hey, this will all go away
Speaker 1: in a moment, like I'll be good.
Speaker 2: I saw no no context. It's posted a clip of
Speaker 2: uh US against Miami and I got hit and I
Speaker 2: kind of just like cut that little clip real quick.
Speaker 2: But we were playing that same game. It might have
Speaker 2: been a different time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you got lifted.
Speaker 2: I saw it. I was like, oh, balls on the
Speaker 2: ground and all of a sudden got baked. I was
Speaker 2: like literally saw that and it all came back to me.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my god, I cannot believe I
Speaker 2: just got smoked like that, but I see it. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't think.
Speaker 1: That was the one. That was when Matt Castle was
Speaker 1: the course back in the archive.
Speaker 2: We had a uh we had a game against Miami
Speaker 2: and were just talking about stingers where I like we
Speaker 2: were like in the red zone and I jumped in
Speaker 2: Andre Branch and I went the way I hit him,
Speaker 2: like both my arms kind of went limp, and then
Speaker 2: you can actually see the clip. I'm kind of just
Speaker 2: like playing basketball for a second, like thank god the
Speaker 2: ball guy, yes, my arms, like we're not working for
Speaker 2: a moment. It's brutal, dude. I literally went, I went
Speaker 2: and hit him and I was like I'm moving around
Speaker 2: him like that. It was weird. Stingers suck man. I
Speaker 2: remember dude Kid and Patrick oh Mammy getting those all
Speaker 2: the time in college or he be, and I never
Speaker 2: had a stare before. If I sometimes just lose my arm,
Speaker 2: like my arm just stops working. I'm thinking that fucking sucks.
Speaker 1: Bro. It's a weird feeling.
Speaker 2: And the first thing I ever got Buffalo Bill's brutal.
Speaker 2: I was like, this is what he's been talking about
Speaker 2: the whole time. Yeah, dude, how about that hit? Who
Speaker 2: is that motherfucker too?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, if it's over?
Speaker 1: What is that You're like looking right at him.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm looking at the ball that that's that's a
Speaker 2: keep you keep your heading a swivel type of mentality.
Speaker 2: What am I doing?
Speaker 1: I mean you even went to the ground, threw your
Speaker 1: legs up.
Speaker 5: I know.

Speaker 2: They're amazing, They're they're fantastic.
Speaker 4: I've heard it. There's so much easier.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard zero to like eleven with girls is
Speaker 2: way easier. And it flips the script on you when
Speaker 2: Ithill comes to town. Yeah, and it's the exact opposite
Speaker 2: for boys, like zero to twelve is like we might
Speaker 2: we might have to put this boy to home. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's that bad. Yeah, and then he hits puberty and
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden things get better or worse.
Speaker 2: Who knows what happened.
Speaker 1: Men don't know it. But we need daughters. Bro, Dude,
Speaker 1: you think you want a boy and then you have
Speaker 1: a girl.
Speaker 4: And it's it's It's what Mike Callie tells me too.
Speaker 4: She's like, think about it. Of course I wasn't like
Speaker 4: boo I when I we found out a girl, was ecstatic,
Speaker 4: but like she was like, think about it. Like you
Speaker 4: can teach everything that you wanted to teach your son
Speaker 4: to your daughter and she will be fucking bad ass
Speaker 4: because of that. If it's a son, it's just like Okay, cool,
Speaker 4: he knows how to fish and hunt and like whatever.
Speaker 4: But like, you know the fact that your your baby
Speaker 4: girl hopefully will have an interest in that ship like
Speaker 4: makes it even cooler, you, no doubt.
Speaker 2: And also, if you decide to have another kid is
Speaker 2: a boy, when he gets to high school, she's gonna
Speaker 2: bring all her hot friends over and that's a big
Speaker 2: dub for him, dude, no doubt, that's a huge dub.
Speaker 4: Yeah for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, yeah, you want.
Speaker 4: I had an older sister, man, I feel that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and she had that one friend that you can
Speaker 2: think about right now, and you're like, yeah, I was
Speaker 2: so happy when she came over. Don't say her name,
Speaker 2: don't need Yeah, but you know, yeah, dude, your wife
Speaker 2: is a fucking rock star. She was with I said

Speaker 2: twenty twenty three.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, just putting them down. Guys are eaten until
Speaker 1: that flip cup came. No, that's what we dont we
Speaker 1: dominated flip cup, right, that's when it all started to hit.
Speaker 4: Well, that's when we started puking. Yeah, yeah, dude, she
Speaker 4: let me tell you something. She went to old Mes
Speaker 4: first of all, I when I met her, I was like,
Speaker 4: I was afraid of her when I met her, dude,
Speaker 4: like seriously the first time. So I'm a little bit
Speaker 4: older than her, So I was like out of college
Speaker 4: when we met, and uh, I came back and went
Speaker 4: to like a formal with her as like an older guy,
Speaker 4: you know. Yeah, and man, they're just animal dude like
Speaker 4: all of her friends, but her especially just like dog mentality.
Speaker 4: It was fucking insane, bro. And I was like, what
Speaker 4: if I gotten myself into and uh that, you know,
Speaker 4: as she like graduated and had become more domestic, I
Speaker 4: guess or whatever. She you know, that party side, as
Speaker 4: it happens to a lot of us, that that slowly
Speaker 4: fades away, and and uh, man, like I've seen it
Speaker 4: come out in her like twice, but the most was
Speaker 4: the since since she's you know, been out of college,
Speaker 4: and the Beer Olympics was by far the most like
Speaker 4: potent version of that. And I was just like, it's insane.
Speaker 2: It's kind of nice to see that, Like, oh that's
Speaker 2: I remember that.
Speaker 4: Yeah totally, And I mean we've only been together. I mean, gosh,
Speaker 4: it's been I think seven years now, but like you
Speaker 4: know it, it just it goes away and a few
Speaker 4: years go by and you kind of forget, you know,
Speaker 4: like the what you you know, just how you used
Speaker 4: to get down and stuff. And it was awesome. It
Speaker 4: was It was fun for me as just kind of
Speaker 4: a bystander to just be like, fuck, yeah, everybody's looking
Speaker 4: at you like who the fuck is this girl?
Speaker 2: When I hit you up and I was like you
Speaker 2: want to do it? And you're like, yeah, can my
Speaker 2: wife be my partner? I thought that's such a mistake. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I ended up being like the highlight of the entire day. Yeah,
Speaker 2: dude was murdering people over and over and over again.
Speaker 4: Look at that. And dude, I will say this, I
Speaker 4: was thinking about on the on the drive here. I
Speaker 4: don't know how like puking to me is not. There
Speaker 4: comes a point where, like if you have a stomach
Speaker 4: bug or like you're on an airplane and you feel
Speaker 4: like you could puke, Like I understand like the mental
Speaker 4: like holding it in, but that the amount of beer
Speaker 4: that was in my gut, dude, it's like cutting yourself
Speaker 4: and saying trying to convince yourself not to bleed like
Speaker 4: that's what it felt like to me. I was like,
Speaker 4: there's no fucking way I'm not gonna throw up right now.
Speaker 4: I don't know how this like, I don't know how
Speaker 4: you guys did it, man, Like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a lot, dude. It is a lot.
Speaker 2: And there's there's been some some conversations about next year
Speaker 2: less alcohol consumption and I'm I'm against, well just do I.
Speaker 4: Mean, there's some freaking liquor in there, dude. It's like,
Speaker 4: I don't know, dude, you cause it's the amount. It's
Speaker 4: the amount of fucking liquid. That's what. That's what. Goddess dude,
Speaker 4: I'm telling you.
Speaker 2: It is such a it's such a it's a marathon, dude,
Speaker 2: it's a true marathon.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: You and Mark from a Middland Yeah, we the boys
Speaker 2: went toast. Really your wife and him went toast.
Speaker 4: Yeah, dude again, I was just like, you know, yeah,
Speaker 4: watching the whole thing go down.
Speaker 2: Have you guys made up?
Speaker 4: They? Well, yeah, but Cali like we got like that.
Speaker 2: I remember like Mark coming up to me and be
Speaker 2: like that's fucking bullshit, Like you can't throw up and
Speaker 2: still compete. I'm like drunk, Yeah, like trying to figure
Speaker 2: out all of the rules.
Speaker 4: In the middle of it, like all the footages on there,
Speaker 4: she went after his ass. Dude. She was calling him
Speaker 4: like a pussy and like a bitch and ship like that.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 4: It was pretty awesome. And then since then like yeah,
Speaker 4: like we've seen each other at award shows and stuff
Speaker 4: and like they give a big hug. But at the
Speaker 4: time it was it was still you know her like
Speaker 4: that competitive.
Speaker 1: Edge lines, that's good line.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, we had won this year.
Speaker 1: We had that.
Speaker 2: We were in the finals and it got chippy. There's
Speaker 2: a lot of there was.
Speaker 4: The other two.
Speaker 2: It was David B and his boy Joey comedian his
Speaker 2: last name. We looked that up, Joey, that's correct, and
Speaker 2: we were I think that's the most drunk.
Speaker 4: We were more drunk this year that we were really
Speaker 4: Yeah close, were there? What was there?
Speaker 1: Uh? Not even closed?
Speaker 4: Where's the game? Were there more beer this year? Like
Speaker 4: what's the deal?
Speaker 1: We figured it up because flip cup he Taylor wanted
Speaker 1: the pictures to cover all the flip cups, so you're
Speaker 1: kind of chugging and flipping at the same time. So
Speaker 1: we figured up within a couple of hours, we put
Speaker 1: we put down like sixteen beers.
Speaker 2: Sixteen and a half beers, I believe was the number.
Speaker 4: That was another reason why. So CALLI and I we
Speaker 4: kept we were winning flip Cup, but we kept fucking
Speaker 4: tying people, so we kept having to run it back
Speaker 4: and drink. So we drank like and and she and
Speaker 4: I specifically we would like tie every game and then win,
Speaker 4: So we drank like probably seven or eight more beers
Speaker 4: than everybody else dated. It was horrible. The video of
Speaker 4: her pug in between her fingers is like one of
Speaker 4: my favorite things of all time. And Michael Chandler just
Speaker 4: like I was like nobody saw that, and like the
Speaker 4: first thing is like Chandler like turning around and just
Speaker 4: be like like off.
Speaker 2: He's a war daddy, man. He's He's a type of
Speaker 2: cat that can drink and the next day be totally fine,
Speaker 2: doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: How much you do.
Speaker 4: I don't know how people do that, man.
Speaker 2: It's it's impressive.
Speaker 4: It's for me.
Speaker 1: In the song of the Next Day Ray to cut
Speaker 1: us off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this year he texted us or set us a
Speaker 2: video in the sun and being like I think a
Speaker 2: break from you guys for a little bit.
Speaker 4: He was back in like three days you feel like hangovers.
Speaker 4: A lot of that is like mental No, no, okay,
Speaker 4: of course he's a fighter and his metabolism it's like insane.
Speaker 4: But like I know people that are not fighters and
Speaker 4: that are like normal dudes or girls that can do
Speaker 4: the same thing. I know guys that are like sixty
Speaker 4: that can wake up and like just start drinking. Are
Speaker 4: they just tougher than I? Like, way tougher than I.
Speaker 2: They're just alcoholics.
Speaker 1: They're just about what the hair of the dog just
Speaker 1: getting Hey, let's start drinking again in the hangover a
Speaker 1: goal away.
Speaker 4: But think about like parents weekend at colleges and how
Speaker 4: those parents like they get fucked up and the next
Speaker 4: day they're just like up and they're just chippering. There
Speaker 4: is that like a generational things.
Speaker 2: Maybe we're just off that's a baby or when you
Speaker 2: have kids, you just got to be on your p's
Speaker 2: and ques the next day, like for so long you're
Speaker 2: just so used to that. That was See, this is
Speaker 2: where I'm like, the hangovers are not it's not a
Speaker 2: mental thing because whenever I drink, I would just become
Speaker 2: the worst out. Then I stay. I don't want to
Speaker 2: do anything.
Speaker 1: I want to land the couch and just be a
Speaker 1: bag of dick bad food for twenty four hours, eat
Speaker 1: greasy food.
Speaker 2: Yeah, give me some Mexican and my love.
Speaker 1: How he's like, is do you guys think hangovers are
Speaker 1: like placebo?
Speaker 2: You kind of just think they're Yeah, like you think
Speaker 2: you should say your due. But you remember being like
Speaker 2: in like eighteen nineteen twenty, like your first couple of
Speaker 2: years in college.
Speaker 4: Oh dude, and just being like throws, all passed out
Speaker 4: on the floor and wake up and like yeah till

Speaker 2: to get back to feeling normal. Yeah, thirty seven days.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean y'all had you were there for that's
Speaker 4: the BRBL too.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, you guys start going at eleven am

Speaker 1: and trying to play beer pong when you're just fucked. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was one of those days. Man, It was
Speaker 2: we I was so drunk, but even in my drunken stupor,
Speaker 2: at the end, I was like, please, I just want
Speaker 2: to go home. I'm home.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 4: You you at that point, you're like you can't, you
Speaker 4: cannot dip. You have to be like the last guy,
Speaker 4: one of the right. You got to kind of be
Speaker 4: the host, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then I tried to talk everybody into a sleepover
Speaker 2: after and it didn't work out. My boys from high
Speaker 2: school they stayed, but I had like Dennis Kelly his
Speaker 2: his boys will Will fell asleep on the couch and
Speaker 2: I was like.

Speaker 1: I'm just like.

Speaker 2: and I came back in the room. They all left.
Speaker 2: I was like just being left a level the look
Speaker 2: like you guys are ready.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well we woke up and he like got an uper
Speaker 2: right away. I wasn't talking to anybody.
Speaker 4: It was like I'm leaving.
Speaker 1: I ordered some Chinese food. It sat on my front
Speaker 1: porch the entire night because I got home and just passed.
Speaker 4: Out of the couch there.
Speaker 2: It was. It's a fun time, man, It's a it's
Speaker 2: a really fun.
Speaker 4: That's it's a great event. I'm really sorry that we
Speaker 4: missed it this year. I had it was kind of
Speaker 4: in the peak of my like touring schedule.
Speaker 1: But you've been all over the place. But I feel
Speaker 1: like you guys have just been on the road. Yeah,
Speaker 1: road animals this summer.
Speaker 4: This summer was wild. Yeah. I made a decision last
Speaker 4: year around this time, maybe like earlier October that uh,
Speaker 4: because like a normal if you're gonna gig, like how
Speaker 4: most normal country artists who are having like doing okay,
Speaker 4: like doing well with like selling tickets and stuff, they're
Speaker 4: playing like sixty shows a year, and we were kind
Speaker 4: of hovering more around like eighty or ninety. And I
Speaker 4: just I hit a wall last year and I just
Speaker 4: kind of had a revelation of like didn't didn't want
Speaker 4: to be gone that much. Like there's there are people
Speaker 4: I have buddies, even, I mean I have guys that
Speaker 4: work for me, and I have artists buddies that that
Speaker 4: like they love being on the road, like on the
Speaker 4: road five times. Yeah, we loves it. I I don't.
Speaker 4: I love playing shows. I love my fans, I mean
Speaker 4: all that, Like I love it, but the it's being
Speaker 4: on the road, like being gone the travel. I don't know,
Speaker 4: there's I think some people it's just a it's a
Speaker 4: not even a lifestyle, but it's like there's something about
Speaker 4: like I really don't know how to pinpoint it, but
Speaker 4: I always like.
Speaker 1: The revelation you were having when you started to hit
Speaker 1: the wall.
Speaker 4: Man, I just kind of looked up at we were
Speaker 4: having conversations about the what would be now this year
Speaker 4: and we were towards that well actually we were, yeah,
Speaker 4: we were somewhat towards the end of my halfway through
Speaker 4: my Fall tour, and I was just like, I'm fucking exhausted,
Speaker 4: and like, you know, I have so I'm not like
Speaker 4: I'm a songwriter, like not just for myself, but like
Speaker 4: I come back to town and I write songs, and
Speaker 4: I'm a publisher and I have people that have signed
Speaker 4: and like I have and I've not that I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't think I've overdone it by any means, but
Speaker 4: I love to have my hands in a lot of
Speaker 4: different parts of the music industry because I love it
Speaker 4: so much, and uh, touring was the one thing that
Speaker 4: I was just like, this is my this is my
Speaker 4: least favorite. I don't don't dislike it, but it was
Speaker 4: like my least favorite. So I hit a point where
Speaker 4: I was looking at next year and I was like,
Speaker 4: this is gonna be the same fucking thing. We're gonna
Speaker 4: start back in like February, and I'm just I'm never
Speaker 4: gonna be able to catch up. And I just I
Speaker 4: finally was like, what what do? What is exhausting me
Speaker 4: the most? Like what is the ship on my plate
Speaker 4: that I would that I would be happy if I
Speaker 4: took some of it off? And it was touring. So
Speaker 4: we started, so I kind of made a deal with myself.
Speaker 4: I was and and honestly with Cali, which she's never
Speaker 4: ever like encouraged me to take time off. She's just like,
Speaker 4: do your thing. But I was like, what if what
Speaker 4: if we start in May and we gig our ass
Speaker 4: off during the summer and we tour super hard and
Speaker 4: we play all the festivals and we do all the things,
Speaker 4: and like on September whatever or you know, October first whatever,
Speaker 4: it is like we stop and like, I, you know,
Speaker 4: I do my in town music industry shit in October
Speaker 4: in the fall and then in the spring and then
Speaker 4: so that way, in my head, we're like, okay, summer
Speaker 4: it's it's almost like, I don't know, it's almost like
Speaker 4: a season, if you will, like, and it's like I'm
Speaker 4: I'm mentally preparing that this part of the year is
Speaker 4: gonna be busiest shit, and it's just like it is
Speaker 4: what it is, and we're gonna have a blast, and
Speaker 4: we're gonna look forward to it, and we're gonna miss
Speaker 4: it because you know, there's gonna be so much time
Speaker 4: passed as opposed to just like catching up every freaking
Speaker 4: week and Monday and Tuesday and having clothes washed and
Speaker 4: freaking being tired for two days and then getting your
Speaker 4: shit back together and getting on a bus and it's
Speaker 4: just a constant thing and it's just something that I'm
Speaker 4: not I love. There are parts of the road that
Speaker 4: I love, but just it's something about the being gone
Speaker 4: and the travel that was just too much. And so
Speaker 4: that was that was the cut that I'm made, like
Speaker 4: the thought of like starting a family was that was
Speaker 4: that kind of definitely Yeah, Oh dude, if you don't
Speaker 4: think it was causing like I mean, I wouldn't say,
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, it was causing Cali and Iu of
Speaker 4: butt heads on a lot of shit, like like just
Speaker 4: being gone and then it's like when when are we
Speaker 4: gonna do When are we gonna go on a vacation
Speaker 4: or do like anything together? And I kind of realized.
Speaker 4: I was like, man, I'm really prioritizing the road because
Speaker 4: I have this mentality of like strike while the iron's hot,
Speaker 4: it could all go away kind of thing. And I again,
Speaker 4: I just was fine, like, man, life's too short, and
Speaker 4: I will always tour, like I mean, and from a
Speaker 4: business standpoint, like that's where most of my like money,
Speaker 4: that's where most of my income comes from.
Speaker 2: But that's the big money for everybody, right, Yeah, but
Speaker 2: it's like there.
Speaker 4: There comes a time it's like why, I mean, everybody's different.
Speaker 4: But I was like, I don't need this much money.
Speaker 4: I'm good with just I'm good with this.
Speaker 1: Let's let's just do this.
Speaker 2: Finding that is special, dude. Being able to finally be like, Okay,
Speaker 2: this is enough for me is something that I don't
Speaker 2: thinink like a lot of people get for sure. A
Speaker 2: lot of people figure that out, and a lot too,
Speaker 2: like it'll change like when the little girl comes, especially.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I'm gonna hate going on the road,
Speaker 4: even especially when she's not out there. Yeah, it works
Speaker 4: that you leave Thursday through Sunday and Wednesday Wednesday night,
Speaker 4: and we get in like usually Sunday around midday, damn.
Speaker 4: And so usually Sunday, I mean when you're obviously, when
Speaker 4: your dad is, you know, you gotta be like ready
Speaker 4: to roll. But for these past few years, Sunday is
Speaker 4: like recovery day. And even if you're not, even if
Speaker 4: it wasn't like a big drinking weekend, it's just like
Speaker 4: the travel and then no sleep, you know, you know
Speaker 4: how the shit is. Yeah, you just kind of hang
Speaker 4: around sleep on Sunday and then I would, I'd get
Speaker 4: up and I would, you know, have meetings and write
Speaker 4: songs on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday, and then Wednesday
Speaker 4: afternoon pack my shit and go go back out to
Speaker 4: wherever we're going.
Speaker 2: If touring is like your least favorite, still love it,
Speaker 2: but least favorite. What's your favorite thing about the music
Speaker 2: industry that you do?
Speaker 4: Writing songs?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what about writing songs? Just fucking does it for you?
Speaker 4: I don't know, you ever seen the movie Holes?
Speaker 1: Good?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Of course, you know. Zero. When people are like, what
Speaker 4: are you like doing, He's like, I like digging holes? Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's writing songs for hell. Yeah, I just I think
Speaker 4: that like none of the music industry period, the end
Speaker 4: uh what exists without the song. I mean it's it's
Speaker 4: like obvious. It's like an obvious thing. But like that
Speaker 4: is where the entire music industry begins, is like hit songs,
Speaker 4: and it's just the man when you get in a
Speaker 4: room and you you know you got on something where
Speaker 4: you're like this is gonna be huge or even like
Speaker 4: this is gonna like like I have a song give
Speaker 4: Heaven some hell. And it's like it was not a
Speaker 4: number one, but like we knew. I was like, this
Speaker 4: song is going to freaking heal people, dude, And like
Speaker 4: that is the coolest feeling in the world to know
Speaker 4: that you're this this song is going to like affect
Speaker 4: people and like help people heal or cope or you
Speaker 4: know what I mean, or whatever it is. And like
Speaker 4: there's something so freaking dope about how that came out
Speaker 4: of like me and two or three of my like
Speaker 4: beer drinking buddies, stupid ass country brains and somehow we
Speaker 4: got together and did something really cool and how that's
Speaker 4: gonna move like a massive amount of people. It's like
Speaker 4: that's there's just there's nothing to me that compares to that.
Speaker 2: Do you like you like writing with people or yeah, totally.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I write about myself so but some but not.
Speaker 2: It's better to have a whole think tank for sure,
Speaker 2: because I was I was told like, if you're I
Speaker 2: think in the country industry, specifically, if like the three
Speaker 2: of us are writing a song and I don't do shit,
Speaker 2: but you two both do it all. But because I'm
Speaker 2: in the room, I get credit.
Speaker 4: Yeah that works. Like everybody has a bad day, damn.
Speaker 2: So you got to essentially be really choosy about who
Speaker 2: walks in that room when you guys are writing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, for sure. And I mean it's all scheduled,
Speaker 4: like you know, you have your publisher and typically they
Speaker 4: are like your publisher will schedule. I could check my
Speaker 4: phone for the next month and I can tell you
Speaker 4: everybody I'm writing with like every day that I'm writing, right,
Speaker 4: and like, so it's it's usually scheduled. Like there's there's
Speaker 4: not people like poking their head in and being like
Speaker 4: what are you guys working on today and just like
Speaker 4: hop in or anything like that. But yeah, I mean
Speaker 4: that's dude. Everybody has an off day and that's just
Speaker 4: kind of that's been the Nashville rule for a long time.
Speaker 4: I feel like the day that goes away will kind
Speaker 4: of be like a that'll be like the end of
Speaker 4: like the Nashville songwriting process because it's just it's they say,
Speaker 4: drop a word, take a third dude, that's like the
Speaker 4: the thing. Yeah, why.
Speaker 2: Why do you think that's like such an important thing
Speaker 2: for Nashville.
Speaker 4: I think it helps people, you know, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's very much a part of the culture.
Speaker 4: In La. You have lawyers after it hit songs get written,
Speaker 4: calling each other and saying, well, my writer said that
Speaker 4: your writer didn't do shit and all that stuff. And
Speaker 4: the Nashville culture is that everybody. It's very competitive, but
Speaker 4: it's also very.
Speaker 1: Collaborative.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and everybody roots for each other's success, like there
Speaker 4: is no nobody there. It's really not that sharky, especially
Speaker 4: not in the songwriting industry. Like people are truly rooting
Speaker 4: for each other's success. And I think it's a small
Speaker 4: it's also a very small town. And if you have
Speaker 4: somebody in the room that that is or could potentially
Speaker 4: be a hit writer one day, the last thing you
Speaker 4: want to do is have a fucking lawyer call and
Speaker 4: be like, Hey, my writer said this guy didn't do shit.
Speaker 4: We're gonna take him off the song. What if that
Speaker 4: person turns into a giant hits art. What if he
Speaker 4: gets better as a songwriter and becomes somebody that you
Speaker 4: could like very much so benefit from way later in
Speaker 4: your career, and that person's like, well, fuck you, you
Speaker 4: took me off a song back in the day, because
Speaker 4: you know, I said I was having an off day.
Speaker 4: It's just you just when you get in the room, man,
Speaker 4: it's just everybody is there for each other. And it's
Speaker 4: I've never ever experienced in a true Nashville writing session
Speaker 4: or post that, Like, I've never experienced somebody being like, hey,
Speaker 4: I heard so and so didn't really do shit today.
Speaker 4: Do you want to take a month of song or
Speaker 4: given left less?
Speaker 1: Have you ever?
Speaker 2: So, there's never really been that situation, was there. Ever?
Speaker 2: It's like twenty twenty when COVID happened, you saw a
Speaker 2: bunch of people like leaving and going like to Austin
Speaker 2: and yeah, yeah, Yeahshville and stuff like that. Yeah, did
Speaker 2: you feel like the culture was endangered all during that time?
Speaker 2: Because I feel like a lot of talented people kind
Speaker 2: of left California and to seek salvation in Austin in Nashville, Tennessee.
Speaker 4: Man, as far as like the writing thing went people,
Speaker 4: I think there was like a month of like there
Speaker 4: was a month of like panic or just really more
Speaker 4: than anything, a bunch of songwriters being like, well, you
Speaker 4: guys want to play Call of Duty or what. Yeah,
Speaker 4: But everybody picked up on the zoom writing thing really quick,
Speaker 4: so like it really never it really didn't change much.
Speaker 4: People moved. I know a guy that moved to freaking Canada.
Speaker 4: People definitely, like you know, moved to other places or
Speaker 4: like if they had a cabin or like a lake
Speaker 4: house or something, they would go out there. But but man,
Speaker 4: the zoom thing like took over for even after things
Speaker 4: started opening up, it took a lot of people a
Speaker 4: long time to get back to, uh doing it in
Speaker 4: person because of how cool, like once you kind of
Speaker 4: figured out how to do the zoom thing, which there
Speaker 4: was a little bit of a learning curve, but it
Speaker 4: became so efficient and people really really leaned into that
Speaker 4: during COVID it's pretty cool.
Speaker 1: Did you have you ever had an off day?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: For sure?
Speaker 1: Is there a song out there that has your name
Speaker 1: on it that you think, damn, I kind of just
Speaker 1: rode on this one.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Actually I know the song. I'll tell you the song
Speaker 4: it was. It's called uh I think it's called The
Speaker 4: Way I Am or the Way That I Am and
Speaker 4: a singer Michael Ray cut it and my I wrote
Speaker 4: it with my Josh Miller, who's a great songwriter, and
Speaker 4: a guy named Ben West. And I remembered I came
Speaker 4: in that day and Josh had like the verse and
Speaker 4: chorus already done, which like doesn't happen all the time,
Speaker 4: And at the end of the when he like played
Speaker 4: it and we're messing with the second verse, and I
Speaker 4: got a call to my dog. I can't remember how,
Speaker 4: but my dog at the time had gotten out of
Speaker 4: my apartment and it was running around my neighborhood, and
Speaker 4: so I got how did that even happen now that
Speaker 4: I think about it, But long story short, I had
Speaker 4: to leave and then like two months later, Josh or
Speaker 4: somebody called me and was like, hey, Michael Ray is
Speaker 4: cutting our song that we wrote, and I was like sick,
Speaker 4: But I specifically remember that, like I that was just
Speaker 4: a day.
Speaker 2: I was lucky to be there, so do you ever
Speaker 2: walk over to Josh and but hey, man, embarrassed.
Speaker 4: I remember that day, Yeah, I was. I remember that
Speaker 4: day leaving and being like, damn, I I didn't do shit.
Speaker 4: There's shit. It's just you know, it happens. And that's
Speaker 4: the thing though, Like it could be you one day.
Speaker 4: You could come in and just be having a bad
Speaker 4: morning or whatever it is, and and uh, you know, people,
Speaker 4: that's just it just that's that's the beauty of it. Man.
Speaker 4: Everybody has a bad day, you know, and you shouldn't
Speaker 4: be punished for that because you showed up and you
Speaker 4: work hard and that's that seems like and everybody gets
Speaker 4: a trophy mentality. But it's it's it's just it's just
Speaker 4: the Nashville way. Man. Somebody could be having a horrible
Speaker 4: day at home, but they got up and they fucking
Speaker 4: put their pants on and they drove in and they
Speaker 4: wrote a song that day and just because maybe they
Speaker 4: were in their head about something. If a hit got written,
Speaker 4: that could be you the next time. So you just
Speaker 4: everybody in the room gets the same.
Speaker 1: We interrupt this episode to ask you a question. You
Speaker 1: know what, we all need to get more of off
Speaker 1: of your ass with bold flavors and a refreshing citrus.
Speaker 1: Kick Mountain dew. We'll get you off your ass and
Speaker 1: have you feel like you're an actual mountain. My face
Speaker 1: flavor the boy always loves the original. You know I've
Speaker 1: shout it out on the pod before, but that gold
Speaker 1: can Caffeine Freeman New was my favorite. Growing up a
Speaker 1: mountain where the weather is always perfect, your friends are
Speaker 1: ready to hang in a day of epic proportions awaits.
Speaker 1: Here's some games and activities that could be exemplified here.
Speaker 1: Picking up a football, tossing a frisbee around with your boys,
Speaker 1: do the longest throat contest. Maybe some video games, yes,
Speaker 1: outdoors kickball, frisbee, golf, golf with football, pickleball, whatever the
Speaker 1: game is. Mountain Dew's here for it. The mountain is calling.
Speaker 1: You should answer, Grab your friends, grab an ice cold
Speaker 1: mountain dew wherever refreshing beverages are sold, and do the.
Speaker 2: Do do the dew. It seems like a couple of
Speaker 2: like I don't know if it was a couple of
Speaker 2: years ago, maybe a year ago or so, Like it's
Speaker 2: this like new there's newer wave of country music, This
Speaker 2: rock and roll country music really started taking place, and
Speaker 2: there was like the highwaymen and the outlaws and stuff
Speaker 2: like that back in the day, and now it kind
Speaker 2: of seems like you and Earnest and Jelly like we're
Speaker 2: like the tip of the spear as far as I
Speaker 2: want to do. Does that feel Morgan as well? Excuse yeah,
Speaker 2: you do? You feel like you guys were a huge
Speaker 2: part of like that transition of country music, because just
Speaker 2: to go a little bit further, it seemed like, you know,
Speaker 2: ten fifteen years ago, people were doing country music then
Speaker 2: getting out of country music to go do more popular genres.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and now it's the opposite.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now it's what the popular genres are now. Jumping
Speaker 2: in Post one is a perfect example of that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, going and being one of the biggest.
Speaker 2: Stars in the world being like I'm gonna cut a
Speaker 2: country album.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And it seems like when you kind of think about
Speaker 2: the transition, your name is really big in that, at
Speaker 2: least in my thought process. Did you feel that way?
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know, it's hard to gas yourself. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: for sure, I just I guess so, man. I mean,
Speaker 4: back then, especially especially with me and earn like some
Speaker 4: of that stuff, like especially the stuff that kind of
Speaker 4: put Morgan on the mat. We were just like writing
Speaker 4: songs that we thought were cool for our buddy. And
Speaker 4: I don't know that stuff. I mean obviously, like the
Speaker 4: I can see the the physical proof of like leaning
Speaker 4: into the rock thing and how it like worked and
Speaker 4: all that, but man, I don't know's It's hard to
Speaker 4: have a gauge on that, like to be like, yeah,
Speaker 4: I was a part of like a huge movement or whatever,
Speaker 4: but it is, I will say it's I do feel
Speaker 4: like I am a part of a class of artists
Speaker 4: that is, like when I think of that, I do
Speaker 4: think of me, Jelly Morgan, earned Landy Wilson. That is
Speaker 4: definitely we have all together been a part of a
Speaker 4: shift in country music that brought a maybe a wave
Speaker 4: of just I would even put Luke coll even though
Speaker 4: Luke was like five or six years ahead of us
Speaker 4: on that like normalcy, like normal people kind of singing
Speaker 4: a little bit more about like normal shit, and that
Speaker 4: sort of resonating with a huge, you know, mass crowd
Speaker 4: of people kind of thing. Just just a new wave
Speaker 4: of this like authenticity thing that that happened in country
Speaker 4: because you know, if you look at bro country which
Speaker 4: no disrespect all that shit like fgl were they kind
Speaker 4: of put they put me on the map, like as
Speaker 4: a songwriter that that was this larger than life kind
Speaker 4: of persona, right, like everything had like a big professional
Speaker 4: wrestler vibe to it, if you will. And uh, and
Speaker 4: then even guys like Stapleton and again like Luke Combs
Speaker 4: and these people that were just kind of normal looking people, uh,
Speaker 4: started singing songs that were a little bit more of
Speaker 4: like a different subject matter and and uh, I think
Speaker 4: that just there was a there's so many people from
Speaker 4: small towns that were like not that they I don't
Speaker 4: think we're tired of the bro country thing, but the
Speaker 4: normal life type shit had gone away for so long
Speaker 4: that they really resonated with that. And that's kind of
Speaker 4: the movement. I think that's happening now. It's like just
Speaker 4: a little bit more. It's kind of gone from this
Speaker 4: like giant, larger than life thing to like a I
Speaker 4: don't know, people just singing songs about life and shit,
Speaker 4: and it's really cool.
Speaker 2: It feels like they went like country was kind of
Speaker 2: tree and then it's all like all the popular music
Speaker 2: and then cut you into this like Adapter Die type
Speaker 2: of situation, like we got to be more like everything
Speaker 2: else that's finding its way back into I don't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel that.
Speaker 1: Even with all the pop country stuff, I feel like
Speaker 1: people from my hometown, they would really be like they'd
Speaker 1: want to put you on like the Jamie Johnson's of
Speaker 1: the world.
Speaker 4: Yeah, totally.
Speaker 1: You were talking about Florida Georgia Line putting you on
Speaker 1: the map a little bit. You see our episodes with
Speaker 1: Florida Georgia Line.
Speaker 4: I have, Yeah, Yeah, what'd you think? I thought it
Speaker 4: was great the.
Speaker 2: Whole time we said, I'm like, god, damn it, we're
Speaker 2: opening this again.
Speaker 1: I felt like I was getting messages too, from just
Speaker 1: people in the music world that was talking about, Hey,
Speaker 1: I loved your episodes. Yeah, not a lot of people
Speaker 1: knew what was going on. I had.
Speaker 4: I thought it was a very good I thought it
Speaker 4: was very professional of you guys to have them both on,
Speaker 4: to give them to give both of their sides of
Speaker 4: the story.
Speaker 2: Uh, you're doing such a great job.
Speaker 4: I want you to know that, like you, I'm I'm
Speaker 4: I don't have I'm in I'm in good standing with
Speaker 4: both of those guys, and I really don't have an
Speaker 4: opinion about it, so uh, but I thought my my
Speaker 4: main thing was who did you have on? First?
Speaker 2: Tyler?
Speaker 4: Okay, when you guys announced that you were going to
Speaker 4: have Brian on, I was like, I'm glad that they
Speaker 4: did that. That happened quick, not because of not because
Speaker 4: you know, not in defense of either or, but just that, like,
Speaker 4: you know, I think that's the purest form of journalism,
Speaker 4: is too, or whatever you want to call it these days,
Speaker 4: is to have both people tell their side of the story.
Speaker 4: And I was like, that's that was sick.
Speaker 2: It was lucky. That actually was luck at the draw
Speaker 2: because the plan I don't think, well, the plan was
Speaker 2: never to have Brian Kelly on. We didn't really I've
Speaker 2: probably said ten words to him. And then after the
Speaker 2: Tyler thing came out, it was very quick that he
Speaker 2: wanted to come on, you know, reach out, wanted to
Speaker 2: come on.
Speaker 1: We're like, yeah, he was fired up, ready to go
Speaker 1: to the barber. Cherry Taylor called the day of the
Speaker 1: drop with the Tyler one and he's like, he wants
Speaker 1: to come on, like.
Speaker 2: Now, yes, and I was, yeah, I picked up that.
Speaker 4: He called me.
Speaker 2: I picked up his life, texted my wife and was
Speaker 2: like in BK Cale Taylor and she's like yeah, called me.
Speaker 2: He's like, I want to come on. I was like,
Speaker 2: all right, tomorrow's open. Do you want to come on tomorrow?
Speaker 2: Right here? Yes?
Speaker 4: Nice?
Speaker 2: All right, cal Will It's like, hey, we're doing this, yeah,
Speaker 2: all right, still wanting a haircut.
Speaker 4: A lot of that drama and stuff was like so
Speaker 4: my relationship with them was they had me out as
Speaker 4: a This was like twenty sixteen and seventeen. They had
Speaker 4: me out like almost every show of those two years
Speaker 4: that they had as a songwriter, and I basically helped
Speaker 4: them write their one of their records, Can't It's called
Speaker 4: Can't Say Ain't Country?
Speaker 6: And uh.
Speaker 4: I Apparently there was a lot of stuff going on
Speaker 4: behind the scenes, but that stuff was just you know,
Speaker 4: that was to us. We had no idea all the
Speaker 4: songwriters out there.
Speaker 2: You never felt that at all walking into a room
Speaker 2: with them.
Speaker 4: No, not really. I mean they they either they or
Speaker 4: their management did a really good job of like not
Speaker 4: airing out any drama to anybody other than what was
Speaker 4: going on between them because we I never really knew
Speaker 4: until after the fact when I heard my manager at
Speaker 4: the time or still is my manager. He was also theirs,
Speaker 4: uh let me know that they were disbanding or whatever.
Speaker 4: I wasn't shocked, but I was definitely like really, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean, it was enough that I wasn't
Speaker 4: like saw that one coming.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're kind of like, oh shit.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah yeah, like I you know, especially on top
Speaker 2: of the world too, Yeah, crushing it.
Speaker 1: You were talking about like appreciating being being in that
Speaker 1: conversation of that wave of country music and national and
Speaker 1: everything else. When did you know that Iron, that Iron
Speaker 1: was getting hot for you guys, like when we're when
Speaker 1: was the moment?
Speaker 4: Oh man, I will never forget I uh so Morgan,
Speaker 4: So Morgan when he was still like a nobody, which
Speaker 4: is so crazy to think about. Uh recorded up Down
Speaker 4: and I was like cool, and I remembered around like
Speaker 4: it it's like around if Sometime in May my manager
Speaker 4: called me and said, hey, well up Down. So around
Speaker 4: around May, Updown was like top ten and that was
Speaker 4: my first hit I wrote. So I wrote up Down
Speaker 4: and that was like my first top ten. I was like, Okay,
Speaker 4: I'm finally gonna have a little bit of success, make
Speaker 4: a little bit of money. And then twenty eighteen, around
Speaker 4: May of twenty eighteen, and then Seth called me again
Speaker 4: and said, well, he was like, hey, you know, Updown
Speaker 4: is probably gonna go to number one. And then like
Speaker 4: a week later he called me it was like, you
Speaker 4: have the next you wrote the next Florida Georgia Line single,
Speaker 4: and it was simple, it was the song. And then
Speaker 4: like a week after that he called me it was like,
Speaker 4: you have the next Chris Lane single and it was
Speaker 4: talking out of it, and then I were not talking
Speaker 4: out of it. Excuse me, I don't know about you
Speaker 4: as the name of the song. And then somebody else
Speaker 4: called me there was another one. Oh, it was Jamison
Speaker 4: Rodgers actually, and they were like, you have the next
Speaker 4: Jamison Rodgers single, and which was called some Girls. And
Speaker 4: all those songs ended up going number one and uh,
Speaker 4: and then it was like it was like like a
Speaker 4: month after that, they were like, hey, Blake Shelton's gonna
Speaker 4: record God's Country. And then it was like, I mean
Speaker 4: it just it. I remembered there was a period of
Speaker 4: six months where for people since I have been in town,
Speaker 4: where like you you have nothing and then you get
Speaker 4: a hit and then if if, if everything, if the
Speaker 4: cards all fall right, you'll get one and then you'll
Speaker 4: get another one, and you'll get another one. No shit,
Speaker 4: And it just it kept happening and kept happening. It
Speaker 4: just there was no rhyme or reason to any of it.
Speaker 4: I mean, there was no like I felt like I
Speaker 4: got better as a songwriter. I definitely do, you know,
Speaker 4: but everybody, I mean, that's just a part of anything
Speaker 4: that you do. You get better at it the more
Speaker 4: you do it. But it just it was like a
Speaker 4: time thing. And I just remembered like, Okay, this is
Speaker 4: the this is the this is it. And then and
Speaker 4: then after that, my uh and at the time, I
Speaker 4: was still just a songwriter. And this was like twenty eighteen,
Speaker 4: and this was when like simple and updown and all
Speaker 4: that stuff was kind of popping off. And my manager
Speaker 4: Seth called me and and well, really it's kind of
Speaker 4: a long story, but Tyler Hubbard kept he he was
Speaker 4: in my ear like every other weekend, like, dude, you
Speaker 4: got to do the artist thing. That's what they said,
Speaker 4: do the artist thing. And all my buddies were signing
Speaker 4: record deals and going and they were just like going
Speaker 4: and their life was over. And like you know that
Speaker 4: my buddies who loved to hunt and fish and all
Speaker 4: that shit, and they were like looking at me, like,
Speaker 4: don't fucking do it, dude, Like this it's a little
Speaker 4: bit yeah, cause it's like so grindy, man, and like
Speaker 4: you don't know, there's so much unknown and you don't
Speaker 4: know if it's going to work out. But that's that's
Speaker 4: a part of the process. But next thing, I know,
Speaker 4: Seth England around that time where he was calling me
Speaker 4: to say I have the simple and updown was gonna
Speaker 4: go number one, blah blah blah called me and was
Speaker 4: like coming to coming to the coming to Big Loud,
Speaker 4: saw our record label. We want to talk chat with
Speaker 4: you about something. And I was like, what the fuck?
Speaker 4: And so I go in. I walk into the it's
Speaker 4: like something I have a movie. I walk into Seth's
Speaker 4: office and all the label heads are there and he
Speaker 4: basically just like handing me a record deal. And I
Speaker 4: was just a song I was just a songwriter, like
Speaker 4: I had no intentions of being an artist at all,
Speaker 4: and and uh so I took it and sat on
Speaker 4: it for months. I sat on it for like a
Speaker 4: few months and like didn't know what to do because
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't know if I want to
Speaker 4: do this. All my buddies are like, literally tell it's
Speaker 4: like the remember a brother where art they where the kid?
Speaker 4: The guy that gets, the guy that gets He's like
Speaker 4: in prison, he turns around, He's like, do not seek
Speaker 4: the treasure? You know what I mean? Yeah, that's what
Speaker 4: it reminded me of. But I finally I was reading
Speaker 4: this book called The Alchemist. Have you ever read that book?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great book.
Speaker 4: I just finished it something like, yeah, that's it, that's it. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and uh it talked about all the omens and like opportunities,
Speaker 4: and I was basically like this, I feel like this
Speaker 4: is a sign. And uh so I just that summer
Speaker 4: around all that same time with the songwriter stuff was happening.
Speaker 4: I just I just signed a record deal and just
Speaker 4: was like, all.
Speaker 2: Right, here we go, dude, that's fucking wild. So those
Speaker 2: two months you were just kind of sitting on it
Speaker 2: where they calling you and be like, hey, what are
Speaker 2: you gonna do?
Speaker 4: Not really they didn't put a lot of pressure on
Speaker 4: me really, but they're very They're all very They've now
Speaker 4: become like dear friends of mine. We work together obviously,
Speaker 4: but like there was a lot of strategy involved, like
Speaker 4: like they knew how much I love Joey moy who
Speaker 4: was my producer, who was like fgl's producer and Morgan's
Speaker 4: producer and all these people. And I'd loved him since
Speaker 4: back when he produced Nickelback and all that, and uh,
Speaker 4: like Joey called me out of the blue and I
Speaker 4: didn't know him, and I was like, well, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 4: And now looking back, I'm like, I'm sure that somebody
Speaker 4: was like, oh, yeah, we help if you call it hard, Yeah,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, Like, yeah, there was some
Speaker 4: shit like that. They're definitely going, yeah exactly, But uh,
Speaker 4: I mean it worked and I have I don't. I
Speaker 4: don't regret it one bit. But it was all there
Speaker 4: was a there was a that the summer of twenty
Speaker 4: eighteen was just a very It was like the the
Speaker 4: I was at that point. I was eight or nine
Speaker 4: years into town and with no success, and it was
Speaker 4: just it was a really cool. It was a really
Speaker 4: cool summer.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was gonna ask you about that, like what was
Speaker 2: those nine years?
Speaker 6: Like?
Speaker 2: Where it was it? Just how many times you like,
Speaker 2: do what am I doing?
Speaker 4: I never you know that my biggest like Mantra or whatever.
Speaker 4: Over the since Okay, So I went to MT I
Speaker 4: graduated in twenty thirteen, and h I signed a publishing
Speaker 4: deal shortly thereafter, which you guys obviously know to you know,
Speaker 4: a publishing deal, right. So and I went four years
Speaker 4: and I did not get a single cut, Like I
Speaker 4: didn't have a single person record or even really sniff
Speaker 4: recording one of my songs. And in that time, I
Speaker 4: think I was just cocky enough or like stupid enough
Speaker 4: that like I was more instead of like discouraged with myself,
Speaker 4: I was more pissed off and couldn't figure out why
Speaker 4: nobody wanted to cut one of my songs, you know.
Speaker 4: And I think that that kind of dumb blindness or
Speaker 4: maybe kept just that just kept pushing me a little bit.
Speaker 4: I feel like you truly have to be stupidly, like
Speaker 4: you have to like just blindly believe in yourself to
Speaker 4: a point where it's almost like delusion until it actually happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like almost having too much awareness at that
Speaker 2: point in your life is a bad thing. Yeah, you're
Speaker 2: like four years in someone would probably think to themselves
Speaker 2: with a lot of awareness, hey I don't know, yeah,
Speaker 2: but this is working out for me. But to be
Speaker 2: that kind of confidence is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and look and I didn't even know I was,
Speaker 4: you know, doing that at the time. Like looking back,
Speaker 4: I was like, well, you sure did believe in yourself
Speaker 4: for a guy that songs weren't that weren't good enough yet,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Yeah, nine years Yeah, but.
Speaker 4: It just I don't know, there's just something about like
Speaker 4: I think all that shit man manifestation, whatever you want
Speaker 4: to call that. I feel like when you kind of
Speaker 4: have your blinders on and you're like, this is going
Speaker 4: to happen for me at some point if you just
Speaker 4: truly don't have a backup plan. And that was my thing.
Speaker 4: So to answer your question, like I never consider coming home,
Speaker 4: moving back home or anything. I just I just kind
Speaker 4: of I was like, it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen,
Speaker 4: and eventually it just it just kind of did.
Speaker 1: It's interesting too, like I always thought like if you're
Speaker 1: in the rooms with certain people, like your boys or
Speaker 1: your friends, and they know that you're a good songwriter,
Speaker 1: they kind of tell somebody else, hey, he's pretty good.
Speaker 1: But it sounds like you're you're waiting. You're sitting there
Speaker 1: waiting and your guy, your management calls you up and like, Hey,
Speaker 1: you're going to write this song for so and so
Speaker 1: next week, or this is gonna be the next one
Speaker 1: you're writing. Like when you finally got the number one,
Speaker 1: he calls like, Hey, you're gonna write this song. Hey,
Speaker 1: you're gonna write this song. Dude, were you knowing at
Speaker 1: the time, like Blake Shelton, Did you know that he
Speaker 1: liked you as a songwriter and you were gonna write
Speaker 1: his song? Where is it? Basically management, these management teams
Speaker 1: figure out like, Hey, it's gonna be Hardy.
Speaker 4: Hardy's gonna write this song for him. No, I'm telling you,
Speaker 4: it was all like it's like it's it. There was
Speaker 4: There's no rhyme or reason to any of it. Dude,
Speaker 4: I'm telling you. When I wrote God's Country, it was
Speaker 4: a first song I wrote a twenty nineteen and I
Speaker 4: wrote that song and I left that day thinking like
Speaker 4: that was that's a cool song. And you just get
Speaker 4: a call that like two days later my publisher was like, hey,
Speaker 4: I sent that to Blake's producer and Blake apparently loves
Speaker 4: it and he's gonna record it like in a week.
Speaker 4: But there was no like, there's no rhyme or reason
Speaker 4: to it, Like there's just you just wrote a song
Speaker 4: that day and you're hoping that it's at lands somewhere.
Speaker 1: And do you even know Blake Shelton at the time,
Speaker 1: Like does he know of you? He just here's your
Speaker 1: song and here's you write it up, and he's like,
Speaker 1: I love this song this, so I'm.
Speaker 4: Gonna record I think that I don't. I don't think.
Speaker 4: I mean I was still so young even just as
Speaker 4: a as an artist then because I was like six,
Speaker 4: six or eight months into my artist's career or whatever.
Speaker 4: I probably don't think he knew who I was at all.
Speaker 2: When it comes to writing, Do like does the name
Speaker 2: of the writer play a part in the artist choosing.
Speaker 4: The song once? Once you get to a certain point, Absolutely, Yeah.
Speaker 2: So like just getting your foot in the door is
Speaker 2: really difficult. Yeah, people see Hardy and they're like, who.
Speaker 4: The fuck is I think that it's it's it's almost
Speaker 4: like a placebo effects, uh that Like if you have
Speaker 4: if you get a song sent to you and there's
Speaker 4: three giant hit songwriters who have written songs that you love,
Speaker 4: you're gonna listen to that song differently than you are.
Speaker 4: If it's three guys that you've never heard of in
Speaker 4: your life. Yeah, I just think it's it'll it. I
Speaker 4: don't know if it tricks people, but it definitely doesn't
Speaker 4: hurt to see. Yeah, Like Ashley Gorley is number one,
Speaker 4: he's written like eighty something. Number one is in the
Speaker 4: next closest to him is like forty five or something like. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he's he's the most successful Ashley Gorley.
Speaker 2: Actually really pull him up. Sure, I want to see.
Speaker 1: That's so fascinating. It feels like like the country world.
Speaker 1: It's like I was going to be an artist and
Speaker 1: they felt like I had something and then they're like, hey,
Speaker 1: Hardy's gonna write your next song. It's like almost in
Speaker 1: my head like oh damn, maybe I am kind of nice,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like they're kind of like
Speaker 1: pair everything together.
Speaker 2: But it sounds like they just have like a sheet
Speaker 2: of songs and they're like that's more of what it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you have like camps and stuff where
Speaker 4: like you know, like you're a certain publishing company will go,
Speaker 4: you know, hold out at a We did like a
Speaker 4: cabin in Leaper's four, and like we would have artists
Speaker 4: come in and attempt to write songs for that person,
Speaker 4: but really like it's you Just the beauty of songwriting
Speaker 4: is that you just kind of go in and you
Speaker 4: write a song and it, you know, it gets sent
Speaker 4: to somebody and they fall in love with it, and
Speaker 4: the next thing you know, it's a hit. Like that's
Speaker 4: there's so much blindness to songwriting. There's a lot of strategy,
Speaker 4: but at the end of the day, the artist has
Speaker 4: to love the song. It could be the best song
Speaker 4: in the fucking world. And the art might not like
Speaker 4: story songs, but like and and you know, it could
Speaker 4: be you could send like if I wrote whatever song
Speaker 4: and send it to Colwindell, who's like, you know, I
Speaker 4: can use him because he's like a friend of mine,
Speaker 4: but like and he's maybe not a big story song guy,
Speaker 4: and he could pass on it. And then I could
Speaker 4: send it to Cody Johnson and Cody Johnson be like,
Speaker 4: this is the best song ever and cut it and
Speaker 4: it becomes a hit. There's just no like, it's just
Speaker 4: so no rhyme or reason to any of it. It's
Speaker 4: all dependent on like the that person's taste, what they
Speaker 4: think is a hit song. It's just there's it's just
Speaker 4: all over the place.
Speaker 2: What's the room? Like when you're walking into a like
Speaker 2: a writer's round or whatever, like if it's three session, yeah,
Speaker 2: like three guys.
Speaker 4: You don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe you're younger and younger in the game and you're crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's some dudes that are like you know this,
Speaker 2: like have you I don't know if you ever wrote
Speaker 2: with this Ashley guy, but yeah, yeah, yeah, somebody like
Speaker 2: that where you're like, this dude's a fucking dog. Part
Speaker 2: of you is like how do I impress them?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean so, especially back young in the game, dude,
Speaker 4: it was it was crazy because like you when you so,
Speaker 4: you would know that you had a hit writer coming
Speaker 4: up in your calendar. So like my you know, a
Speaker 4: publisher would text me and say, hey, I got you
Speaker 4: a right. Let's say it Ashley Gorley. I got you
Speaker 4: a right with Ashley Gorley. In two weeks. Those next
Speaker 4: two weeks, I'm gonna be thinking of the best ideas
Speaker 4: that I possibly can. I'm gonna have verse starts and
Speaker 4: like melodies and like that. You have to come in prepared.
Speaker 4: You don't have to, but you probably should, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean. But dude, the crazy thing about early
Speaker 4: like like these days, man, you know, it's such a
Speaker 4: small community of songwriters. You literally there's no you're never
Speaker 4: going in blind. You know everybody, You've written tons of
Speaker 4: songs with everybody, You've sat in the room for hours.
Speaker 4: You just go in and you talk for a little
Speaker 4: bit and then you're like, I got an idea called
Speaker 4: so and so you start writing. It's like it's so casual.
Speaker 4: But back in the day, man, there is a you
Speaker 4: have to have a little you have to have like
Speaker 4: a mental strength of like I'm about to walk into
Speaker 4: a room and sit with a person that I don't
Speaker 4: fucking know and share my ability which might not be
Speaker 4: that fucking good for you know, three or four hours,
Speaker 4: and like, pray to God that that collaboration works or
Speaker 4: else it's gonna be the most awkward four hours of
Speaker 4: your fucking life.
Speaker 1: It's four hours.
Speaker 4: Sometimes sometimes it's thirty minutes, dude, Like sometimes the song
Speaker 4: just comes out. Sometimes it's eight hours.
Speaker 6: It just it just.
Speaker 4: Depends on the room and the people in the day
Speaker 4: and all that. But back in the day, it was tough, man.
Speaker 1: So there's like a young, a young hardy out there
Speaker 1: that's about to sit in a room with hardy and
Speaker 1: Earnest or something like that. You know they're going to
Speaker 1: it's like fuck.
Speaker 2: A couple, they're walking to the Lions down a little yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like two homies.
Speaker 2: Yeah bro, you know they're hanging out, they have a rapport.
Speaker 2: They're gonna say jokes like do you laugh with them?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Cont it's all that.
Speaker 4: It is all that, yeah, And that's a good I
Speaker 4: try to remember that as much as I can when
Speaker 4: I do get like a young writer or a young
Speaker 4: artist that people believe in and think, which I'm not
Speaker 4: freaking you know, I'm I'm feel like I'm just still
Speaker 4: halfway there, but like to remember that there's kids, you know,
Speaker 4: ad to give young people a shot because that's like
Speaker 4: people did that for me, and that's how people. You know,
Speaker 4: you got to lift people up that you think you're
Speaker 4: talented a lot of times younger. Yeah, but to think
Speaker 4: about people that come into a room and like, you know,
Speaker 4: they're playing it cool, but maybe they're nervous and ship
Speaker 4: that's full of shit. To think that you're the guy. Now,
Speaker 4: that's like people are like, you know, they've they've done
Speaker 4: two weeks of prep and out ideas and stuff.
Speaker 2: Like that, and also shout out those guys that come
Speaker 2: in nervous but they don't seem nervous. Yeah, this person's
Speaker 2: read and at the end they're like, yo, I was
Speaker 2: so nervous, but it's.
Speaker 4: Like we really that's totally crazy. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So with writing, how do you as you like, now
Speaker 2: you sign your artist deel, you're starting to do the
Speaker 2: art thing, artest thing that everyone's talking about. You've been
Speaker 2: cutting songs for everybody else. How do you differentiate? I
Speaker 2: want to keep this little nugget for myself because I
Speaker 2: want I want my name to be big as opposed
Speaker 2: to give me a How do you differentiate that?
Speaker 4: It kind of it came easier over time. I mean
Speaker 4: I definitely have a very polarizing sound, so that that helps,
Speaker 4: you know, like of just like if it was like
Speaker 4: a rock thing or like just there's there's just a
Speaker 4: certain type of song that I know sounds like me
Speaker 4: and that probably won't fit in anywhere else. But the
Speaker 4: main thing is just like it's tough these days because
Speaker 4: I have I have a few like I don't really
Speaker 4: sing like I'm not a sexy song guy. I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't. I'm still young. So there's like if you
Speaker 4: write a song that's kind of from the perspective of
Speaker 4: somebody that maybe is like closer to fifty, like like
Speaker 4: songs that are like remember that time in high school
Speaker 4: when we did this thing kind of deal. I don't know,
Speaker 4: there's like certain there's certain areas that I like just
Speaker 4: don't feel like I'm there yet, or just kind of
Speaker 4: stay away from. So but these days it's a little more.
Speaker 4: It's easier to pick the ones that are for me
Speaker 4: because it seems obvious. But that was a struggle back
Speaker 4: in the day. And I'll tell you a funny story.
Speaker 4: My first number one was One Beer was the name
Speaker 4: of that song. And when I wrote that song, I
Speaker 4: had a record deal. I just signed a record deal,
Speaker 4: and that song got sent to Dustin Lynch. That's the
Speaker 4: story that I hear, and I hear that Dustin really
Speaker 4: liked it and that he was going to record it.
Speaker 4: That's the that's the story. Dustin. You can fact check
Speaker 4: this and completely called bullshit. But my manager Seth called me.
Speaker 4: I'll never forget. I was in Oxford. I was with
Speaker 4: Cali and he was like, Hey, what the fuck's up
Speaker 4: with this one Beer song? And I was like, what
Speaker 4: do you mean? He was like you're not keeping that
Speaker 4: for yourself and I was like, no, like that song
Speaker 4: is not because at the time especially, I was like
Speaker 4: mister redneck dude, and I just wanted to do like
Speaker 4: the super redneck shit. And this song was about like
Speaker 4: having a baby in high school and like but how
Speaker 4: that turns into like a beautiful thing blah blah blah
Speaker 4: and uh. And he and I got in a legit,
Speaker 4: full blown, like yelling argument over the phone about I
Speaker 4: was like, you don't you know, I just it was
Speaker 4: this whole thing about he was trying to tell me,
Speaker 4: Like I he was telling me, like, you're an idiot
Speaker 4: if you don't record this song, and he pointed he
Speaker 4: straight up said this, if you record this song, it'll
Speaker 4: be your first number one. And I'm like, you're out
Speaker 4: of your freaking mind. He talked me into recording it.
Speaker 4: It was my first number one. So like there are
Speaker 4: time there have been times where the opposite where instead
Speaker 4: of like this song is definitely for me, there's been
Speaker 4: times where I sent out a song and was like,
Speaker 4: there's a note that this is not a mee and
Speaker 4: then I got a phone call It's like you need to.
Speaker 1: Take that back because it's definitely what's What's What's a
Speaker 1: song that comes to mind that wasn't a youth song
Speaker 1: that you thought it was.
Speaker 4: I mean the one Beer being one, but there was
Speaker 4: another one called sign Sober You, which was like early
Speaker 4: early on song, and we had to take that away
Speaker 4: from uh. John Party apparently was gonna cut it like
Speaker 4: the next week, and I think Seth had to call
Speaker 4: his record label. And that's when it sucks, is when
Speaker 4: like it gets into.
Speaker 2: Somebody else and get a little chippy hunt.
Speaker 4: And you can they have to call and be like, hey,
Speaker 4: we're taking this one back. And there's a there is
Speaker 4: a law called the or an act that was passed
Speaker 4: called the First Usage Law or Act, where basically, if
Speaker 4: you don't have permission from any of the songwriters, uh,
Speaker 4: then you're not legally not allowed to record the song,
Speaker 4: but only one time. So like if I recorded it
Speaker 4: and it flopped, John Party could have recorded that and
Speaker 4: put it out no problem like you like. For example,
Speaker 4: because of the First Usage Act, you have to get
Speaker 4: permission from the songwriters to record the song for the
Speaker 4: first time, but after that you don't have to get permission,
Speaker 4: So I could go I could go re record Morgan's
Speaker 4: dangerous album Top to Bottom and put it out and
Speaker 4: would not have to get permission from a single person. Really,
Speaker 4: anybody could you could? You could Top to Bottom record
Speaker 4: the Fleetwood Mac Rumors, Freaking Michael Jackson thriller, and you
Speaker 4: would not have to get permission from anybody.
Speaker 2: Why so why is there that giant gaping hole in
Speaker 2: the first act? Uh?
Speaker 4: I guess just the first time. I don't know that
Speaker 4: for the for some reason, like the first time that
Speaker 4: it gets recorded, I don't know. You just have to
Speaker 4: get permission.
Speaker 2: So, all right, somebody wants to record a song you
Speaker 2: wrote it with us three wrote a song. G wants
Speaker 2: to record that song. I want him to, will want
Speaker 2: them to?
Speaker 4: You don't want them You only need permission from one song.
Speaker 2: Rit got you?
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 2: And so is there ever like a call back and
Speaker 2: forth with like yeah, totally, like I want to just
Speaker 2: got a record and that goes that can go, that
Speaker 2: situation can go fifty to fifty and it happens all
Speaker 2: the time.
Speaker 4: Like you'll have a guy who has like let's say
Speaker 4: he was a young artist and he's a buddy of
Speaker 4: mine and he wants the song really bad. But you
Speaker 4: guys think that it could go to somebody that you know,
Speaker 4: there's no there's no faith in him making money off
Speaker 4: the song because he's so young, nobody knows who he is.
Speaker 4: They might not play it on the radio. And then
Speaker 4: let's say Luke Brian loves the song, and but he's
Speaker 4: my buddy and I want to do him a solid
Speaker 4: and I've got maybe some hits and I'm not worried
Speaker 4: about you know like that. But maybe you guys haven't
Speaker 4: had a hit yet and you're like, well, fuck that,
Speaker 4: I heard Luke Brian wants it, let's give it? Or like,
Speaker 4: why would you let him have it? This song is
Speaker 4: so good? Maybe somebody else wants it, Like there's a
Speaker 4: there's that happens from time to time. But the Nashville
Speaker 4: to me, like the Nashville way and the thing it
Speaker 4: kind of goes with the drop of word. Take A
Speaker 4: third thing is whoever wants it can have it. That's
Speaker 4: that's how I've always been. If you're the first first
Speaker 4: person to get a hold of it, and you really
Speaker 4: want it that bad, then take it. I feel like
Speaker 4: there's so many people that I look up to and
Speaker 4: like hit songwriters and stuff that have that mentality, and
Speaker 4: I just think that that shit goes a long way,
Speaker 4: and and like up down is a great example that. Again,
Speaker 4: I say that there's a song Jameson Rodgers, who is
Speaker 4: a buddy of mine, that some girls he cut that song.
Speaker 4: He recorded that song before he had a record deal,
Speaker 4: and that ended up being his first number one. No shit,
Speaker 4: So like you just sometimes you just gotta let people
Speaker 4: take it because you never know what's gonna happen with it,
Speaker 4: you know, yeah, oh.
Speaker 1: Oh, snow the mouse is dying in the wheel right now.
Speaker 1: The mouse is dying in the wheel right now?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Are you essentially at a spot now where as you're
Speaker 1: writing music, you ultimately just in your mind you're like,
Speaker 1: I'm writing the song for so and so, well will
Speaker 1: also and I guess some simultaneously, you know, accepting your
Speaker 1: publisher being like, hey, you're gonna write you know, we
Speaker 1: said Blake Shelton, but you're gonna write Blake Shelton's next song.
Speaker 4: So there's a thing called a tip sheet and they
Speaker 4: send it out like every week, and it basically whoever
Speaker 4: somebody does all this research or whatever. It's not like
Speaker 4: a ton of research, it's just word of mouth. But
Speaker 4: they make a database of who is recording right now.
Speaker 4: So like let's say Tim McGraw's at the top, like
Speaker 4: he's recording tomorrow, and Kenny Chesney is recording next week,
Speaker 4: and Morgan Wallin's recording over the next few weeks and
Speaker 4: blah blah blah blah blah. There's this long list of people,
Speaker 4: especially if I'm not like in a record cycle where
Speaker 4: I'm like writing for myself, or if i got plenty
Speaker 4: of songs and I know I'm like good for a while,
Speaker 4: Like you'll a lot of times you will look at
Speaker 4: that and be like, let's try to shoot for so
Speaker 4: and so, Like this person is recording tomorrow. What if
Speaker 4: we can get it to that person and they fall
Speaker 4: in love with it and they love it so much
Speaker 4: that they're like, screw this song, I wasn't gonna record,
Speaker 4: let's record this when it's the kind of thing.
Speaker 1: Got you do You ever have songs that you write
Speaker 1: that you know this is the artist for it, and
Speaker 1: you just kind of holster it until that artist is Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sometimes essentially like recording, Hey they finally made the tip
Speaker 1: sheet on there'll be recording in a month from now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're like all right, this is the song I've been
Speaker 1: waiting for.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And sometimes you'll You'll be like, this song that
Speaker 4: we wrote sounds like this person and only this person.
Speaker 4: I'm going to wait like six months until I know
Speaker 4: this person's going back in the studio, and then I'm
Speaker 4: going to send it to him. Because a lot of
Speaker 4: times people will listen to a song You'll like, if
Speaker 4: I was going to send it to Keith Urban whoever,
Speaker 4: and he he isn't recording for he hasn't not going
Speaker 4: to the studio for a year. Do you really want
Speaker 4: to send a song to somebody and have them listen
Speaker 4: to it and get tired of it over a year
Speaker 4: and be like, maybe there's something else better out there?
Speaker 4: Or do you want to wait till that two week
Speaker 4: window where they're really listening to songs with it then
Speaker 4: so it's fresh? You know. Yeah, there's like a lot
Speaker 4: of I mean, there's strategy to it. But again, there's
Speaker 4: no rhyme or reason that person could love that song
Speaker 4: two years from now and record it and take it
Speaker 4: to radio. Yeah, but there is some I mean, there's
Speaker 4: definitely some some strategy stuff like that that you try
Speaker 4: to think about, you know.
Speaker 2: I love how many layers are of this game. I know,
Speaker 2: it's super interesting.
Speaker 1: I mean that's sometimes songwriters the creativity just is you know,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you have down times, but like just twenty
Speaker 1: four to seven, think about something stuff.
Speaker 2: New, you know what I mean, your stand just thinking
Speaker 2: to himself, I could write this song. Yeah, yeah, that
Speaker 2: is wild.
Speaker 1: You would put a lot of stuff down on your notes.
Speaker 1: I'm assuming like tons app like recording tons.
Speaker 4: Everybody. Every songwriter in Nashville. Every songwriter in Nashville has
Speaker 4: probably in their notes app or whatever they have, has
Speaker 4: a list of ideas in their phone, and dude, it
Speaker 4: could be I mean, you've got to write down everything.
Speaker 4: If you think anything could be a song, you got
Speaker 4: to write it, write it down because you just never know.
Speaker 4: That's what's so great about collaboration. It's like you never know.
Speaker 4: If you had a way to write it and it
Speaker 4: wasn't very good, but your buddy over here was like,
Speaker 4: oh what if you did it like this? And they
Speaker 4: kind of figured out that they crack the code to
Speaker 4: like how to write a simple idea or whatever that is. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it turned that into like a great idea.
Speaker 2: I love the idea of collaborations, especially in songs like
Speaker 2: how did the how do you get somewhere to come
Speaker 2: on a song with you? Do you have to have
Speaker 2: the relationship or do the managers handle it like.
Speaker 4: Like to like put a song out together, like a
Speaker 4: song together something?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's it Usually, especially these days, starts
Speaker 4: with like it's it's like a like your homies with
Speaker 4: the person kind of thing, you know what I mean,
Speaker 4: and text it to them and let's do this together.
Speaker 4: And you know, sometimes they're like, you know, hey, I
Speaker 4: got to I got tons of features right now, I
Speaker 4: can't do it or whatever. But a lot of times
Speaker 4: and then there's sometimes like you'll write a duet or
Speaker 4: you'll record a duet and and it could just be
Speaker 4: somebody you don't know but you're a big fan of
Speaker 4: and and you get a hold of that person and
Speaker 4: and just ask if they would want to do it
Speaker 4: with you, and they do it.
Speaker 2: Who are like some of the people you would love
Speaker 2: to do a collab with a feature with out there
Speaker 2: in the game right now that you have And yet oh.
Speaker 4: My gosh, man, Jelly Jelly and I have been talking
Speaker 4: for forever about doing a song together.
Speaker 2: And we hite no, not yet.
Speaker 4: We've only written one song together, but we we haven't
Speaker 4: read that.
Speaker 1: He's still ad bro when it does.
Speaker 4: I know, Bro, maybe it's just the longer I wait,
Speaker 4: the bigger man. I don't know. I've been so so
Speaker 4: thankful to I have have been a part of so
Speaker 4: many cool collaborations. Maybe in the pop world, I don't
Speaker 4: even know, dude, I don't even know where I would start.
Speaker 4: I mean, I said post my own for forever, and
Speaker 4: then I got to be on that that album, which
Speaker 4: was like insane. I don't know. I will have to
Speaker 4: circle back to that one.
Speaker 2: You a different genre, would if you did a different
Speaker 2: genre of music, what would you want that genre to be?
Speaker 4: Like if I did it myself?
Speaker 2: Yeah, your country is no longer an option to you.
Speaker 4: I mean I would just fully lean into the rock
Speaker 4: and roll thing. Yeah, I think yeah, but I would
Speaker 4: love I mean, dude, I would love to try to
Speaker 4: do like a hip hop thing.
Speaker 2: I don't rap. Yeah, you want to get out there
Speaker 2: and rap a little Snow my last at Bro, what
Speaker 2: you go about Snow? A little bit about Snow my
Speaker 2: last album Quit.
Speaker 4: The first song on that album was It's I Wrapped
Speaker 4: in It?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 4: I think it's I think I would fuck with it.
Speaker 1: I would love to hear it looking back.
Speaker 2: Are you so.
Speaker 1: Happy that you took that leak to go into the
Speaker 1: artist world? I think so, yeah, because it seems like
Speaker 1: like I've never gotten to be at one of your shows,
Speaker 1: but I follow like all your Instagram stuff, and it
Speaker 1: just seems like you get on the road with like
Speaker 1: Ern and Morgan, like obviously Morgan's Country and everything else,
Speaker 1: but it seems like you bring this rebellious style just
Speaker 1: the just the theatrics of the show. It seems like
Speaker 1: it'd be really fun to be it because you kind
Speaker 1: of have like this nWo style about you that gets
Speaker 1: added to the country mix of like an Urn and
Speaker 1: a Morgan.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Sure, I mean we definitely from the beginning have
Speaker 4: treated it like a rock show, you know, like just
Speaker 4: this energy and like a big party and and that
Speaker 4: kind of thing. But uh no, I haven't regretted. There's
Speaker 4: been There's been a lot of times where I have,
Speaker 4: especially early on and dealing with like like even just
Speaker 4: a little bit of fame and like not you know
Speaker 4: this y'all, you guys know, but like the sacrifices of
Speaker 4: not being able to go to certain places and do
Speaker 4: certain things and you used to love to do and
Speaker 4: and all that, and and I think just that's been
Speaker 4: like a that was my biggest struggle. But now that
Speaker 4: I've I've gotten over that. Man, the ability, the privilege
Speaker 4: to move people and to give people a release from
Speaker 4: like their normal lives that might give it might be
Speaker 4: giving them problems, is like the coolest thing in the world,
Speaker 4: which is like for me, like our live show and
Speaker 4: like when we this year we did our first like
Speaker 4: real big headliner thing and played a lot of big
Speaker 4: like venues and and like I'm just looking out and thinking,
Speaker 4: like many these people just came here to have fun,
Speaker 4: and like I am providing that for those people. It's
Speaker 4: like the coolest fucking thing ever.
Speaker 2: So live share thing is so sick, Like how much
Speaker 2: do you put into like the lights, the fire everything.
Speaker 2: Because we did that music video and there was that
Speaker 2: fire guy there and so he was talking about some
Speaker 2: crazy shit. Yeah, like yeah I could do that.
Speaker 4: He was talking about the jacket. No, no, no, I haven't,
Speaker 4: but I'm I've not forgotten about that guy. Yeah, and
Speaker 4: that's still a possibility. Yeah. The so a few months
Speaker 4: before every I know, I'll have a like a production
Speaker 4: meeting and guys, you know, my my manager and my
Speaker 4: production manager and these people will will we'll sit down
Speaker 4: and we'll go through the set list and I'm good,
Speaker 4: I got one in. Uh. We'll go through the set
Speaker 4: list and just song to song be like what are
Speaker 4: you thinking for this?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 4: And because well these days, like we have a screen
Speaker 4: in the back, it's like, what's the content that you
Speaker 4: think you'll like? And from the top down we just
Speaker 4: kind of go through that and you know, the fire
Speaker 4: and stuff, I leave that those moments or whatever, like
Speaker 4: you know, uh, because it's not every song, you know,
Speaker 4: it's like certain you kind of pick and choose your
Speaker 4: fire moments and your smoke moments and all that stuff.
Speaker 4: But I'd like to be as involved as I can
Speaker 4: in that stuff because I just think it's all a
Speaker 4: part of the creative ball and and like a you
Speaker 4: can tell the difference between a well crafted show and
Speaker 4: a not well crafted show, even if somebody that has
Speaker 4: a million hits, Like you got to have transitions and
Speaker 4: like talking points and moments and and and you have
Speaker 4: to have like the top of the show has to
Speaker 4: do this right, and then it should bring people down
Speaker 4: so that when you do that again, it's more hype,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, there's like undulance to it.
Speaker 4: And and uh, I like to be as as involved
Speaker 4: as I can on that stuff, and I think it
Speaker 4: all matters.
Speaker 2: Are you familiar with NF the rapper totally?
Speaker 4: Doug.
Speaker 2: We went to his bridge downe of so Yeah, and
Speaker 2: the level. I mean, the guy's got OCD, Like he's
Speaker 2: very detailed in everything he does, but the screen behind
Speaker 2: him was like almost interacting with him. He knew where
Speaker 2: to be and when you be there, and then all
Speaker 2: of a sudden balloon would come out of certain places
Speaker 2: and that does That's such a crazy aspect of everything. Yeah,
Speaker 2: a shopping car move is so hard.
Speaker 1: It's so hard.
Speaker 4: What was the shopping car bit? What was that he did?
Speaker 1: Like, you know, as he's like wheeling out with the
Speaker 1: balloon that hangs on the shopping cart, It's like one
Speaker 1: of his openers to Hyah one of his albums. But
Speaker 1: he had that rolling with the green in the background.
Speaker 1: It was just that's sick.
Speaker 4: Yeah, isn't that he lives here?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: It is?
Speaker 1: You love the boy?
Speaker 4: That's cool. I like, I like him a lot.
Speaker 2: He goes crush dude, he's got like every white athlete
Speaker 2: in their feelings every time.
Speaker 4: He's ultimate fucking hype guy.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah.
Speaker 5: High.
Speaker 2: But like also like he unpacks his maybe those twelve
Speaker 2: year old emotions that you've had a little.
Speaker 4: Yeah, bro, he is.
Speaker 2: He's elite in the emotional category, absolutely elite in that.
Speaker 2: But yeah, his shows are his shows are dope.
Speaker 4: I need to go catch one, man, I haven't. I haven't. Uh,
Speaker 4: I haven't seen him live yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's cool.
Speaker 1: It definitely is.
Speaker 2: Do you you get out to a lot of shows
Speaker 2: trying try to Yeah.
Speaker 4: It's probably hard, right, Yeah, I mean there's a way
Speaker 4: to do it here where you can kind of sneak
Speaker 4: around or watch it in a But also, like you know,
Speaker 4: if it's like a whatever, it may be a non
Speaker 4: demographic of mind type show, Me and Cali will just
Speaker 4: go dude, like for real. Yeah, I mean it just
Speaker 4: it depends on what it is. But yeah, I mean
Speaker 4: sometimes you just just go just State night. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 4: like we went and saw who do We go See?
Speaker 4: It was a it was like a year ago or so,
Speaker 4: and it was like it was like I think it
Speaker 4: was joy Rule and like no it was Nelly. It
Speaker 4: was Nelly and Ashanti, and uh, there's a million openers
Speaker 4: and like, we just went to that Travis Scott. We
Speaker 4: just went to Travis Scott last year. Like, uh yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean there's there's times for sure, but I wish
Speaker 4: that I could go to more. But I will say
Speaker 4: when we play festivals and stuff like big festivals in
Speaker 4: the summer, dude, I'm I'm on that stage watching everybody.
Speaker 4: Like I love watching shows and just watch seeing how
Speaker 4: different people perform it because it's it's like a at
Speaker 4: the risk of sounding like a douche, it's like it's
Speaker 4: an art form to like performing is like and how
Speaker 4: how are you able to manipulate a huge crowd of people?
Speaker 4: It's like it's a it's a it's a gift. And
Speaker 4: I love watching people and I mean honestly like learning
Speaker 4: things from them, like picking up moves and just things
Speaker 4: to say and things like that, and I love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's who's the best you've ever seen? Were like,
Speaker 2: holy ship, I gotta.
Speaker 4: Up my game, man, I only just saw him recently.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to think of what was the best, but uh,
Speaker 4: I just saw him in finway. But post Malone is
Speaker 4: freaking dope. He It's it's there's a there's a thing
Speaker 4: where like when people don't have to try hard but
Speaker 4: they are just so cool and they're so captivating, but
Speaker 4: they're not like trying to be I don't know how to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the way he'll he'll have his cigarette
Speaker 1: and he's he's so in the moment. It feels like
Speaker 1: with his art that it's it's felt by everybody. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's weird, it's hard to it's yeah, it's a weird
Speaker 1: thing to try and like.
Speaker 2: But there's still like a space between the two, like
Speaker 2: the audience and him.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's like.
Speaker 2: In the zoo right right right. Look at.
Speaker 4: Example, that's a great example. He has these songs like
Speaker 4: better Now, which is just a right down the gut,
Speaker 4: you know, like pop hit, and at the show he'd
Speaker 4: just be like you probably you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: It's like it's kind of like Travis Scott has got
Speaker 4: to be number one. Actually I just thought I just
Speaker 4: remember that, I mean, his his show.
Speaker 2: Then you do like backflips off of like dude, he
Speaker 2: does everything.
Speaker 4: Dude, It's it's insane. There's like a video clip of
Speaker 4: him like his top ten like Biggest, which I know
Speaker 4: he got he got in like or his you know,
Speaker 4: some crazy stuff happened in the show a while back,
Speaker 4: but like there's a there's a that that's the shot
Speaker 4: right there.
Speaker 2: Bruh.
Speaker 4: He's like up on top of some fucking ten foot
Speaker 4: fire hydrant thing and that what I've what I love
Speaker 4: about that is is his his music does not reflect
Speaker 4: his live show. His music is just like hip hop,
Speaker 4: but it's not. The songs itself are not this overly
Speaker 4: insanely hype thing. It's not like ridiculous. But then you
Speaker 4: go see it live in the culture that he has
Speaker 4: created as a live performing artist, like Fiend is just
Speaker 4: like when you listen to it, you know who doesn't
Speaker 4: love Fiend?
Speaker 1: But like.
Speaker 4: When it's live, it's like it's like it's like he's
Speaker 4: at a fucking metal festival. I mean, it's just like
Speaker 4: people are going bananas and it it. There's just a
Speaker 4: crazy translation between his his music and how uh just
Speaker 4: the live culture and people just know to act a
Speaker 4: complete and total fucking fool his live show. Yeah, that's
Speaker 4: that's the funnest show I've ever been to before.
Speaker 2: That's fucking dope.
Speaker 1: He he does some crazy ship the uh Morgan wall
Speaker 1: and walk out. Yeah, it's so iconic, it's so popular.
Speaker 1: But it's something like that where it's so cool and
Speaker 1: popular that I'm sure the boys you have to almost
Speaker 1: chirp him to bring him down a little bit.
Speaker 4: Did you Did you see the video we made? No,
Speaker 4: we made a video. Me and Ern were like picking
Speaker 4: at him about it. No ship. Yeah it was. Arn
Speaker 4: posted it on his like Instagram.
Speaker 1: Every time I see him, it was in a different walk.
Speaker 1: I think of you and Ern, and I'm like, I
Speaker 1: wonder if the boys like chirp him. How about Payton
Speaker 1: Manning coming out in full uniform.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that was hilarious.
Speaker 4: It's a cool thing that he is. He is, Uh
Speaker 4: that Morgan is done with that? It really is.
Speaker 1: It brings like a game game Day element, game day atmosphere.
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. No, that one's not it. That's not.
Speaker 4: This one is like we're walking, it's like in a hallway.
Speaker 4: It's it's in there somewhere. It's he just got the haircut,
Speaker 4: so it's a little further down.
Speaker 2: The urn is like that in the writing.
Speaker 4: Uh, maybe that's too far. I can't remember. I'll tell
Speaker 4: you the date it was around like it was in September.
Speaker 4: But dude, yeah, I mean like Morgan is ire. I
Speaker 4: mean he's before anything, before anything. He's just our buddy.
Speaker 4: So like yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: I know you got to be out in fifteen. So
Speaker 2: let's uh twist the question to your talk.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's hit, let's rip it. We're wearing our costumes.
Speaker 1: Just bring it back to spooktone. No it is.
Speaker 2: It is November twelfth, but us October.
Speaker 4: Thirty first, that's right in our hearts.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Twisted question is brought to you by Twisted Tea. That
Speaker 2: Twisted tea is always made with five percent ABV. It
Speaker 2: is great for tailguard, getting in the parking lot at
Speaker 2: the bar, watching.
Speaker 1: With the boys, smooth zero carbonation.

Speaker 1: Are we gonna were about to get? Okay, go ahead, Actually,
Speaker 1: can we get Sherman?

Speaker 9: Would you rather get the biggest haul of all time
Speaker 9: while trick or treating or hand out the biggest haul.
Speaker 6: Of all time?
Speaker 4: Hand out one hundred dude? Yeah, because the joy you
Speaker 4: would get for just seeing all the all the kids. Dude,
Speaker 4: I don't know what that would be, but hand out
Speaker 4: for sure. I agree.
Speaker 1: It's like when you get to the spot where you
Speaker 1: want to hand out some king sized stuff and you
Speaker 1: just you're smiling because you know they're.
Speaker 4: So Yeah, I'm smiling right now. In my head, I'm
Speaker 4: doing it right now.
Speaker 2: There's something about dusk and the early trick or cheaters
Speaker 2: coming to your house.
Speaker 4: The first one, the first one, dude, and you.
Speaker 2: Hand them that king sized candy bar, whichever one it is,
Speaker 2: and he takes it, looks around and goes back to
Speaker 2: his boys because you know, there's a whole new game
Speaker 2: of telephone mapping. Minutes later. He might be back in
Speaker 2: a different outfit, yea, with all of his boys. And
Speaker 2: you know, like at the end of this evening, I'll
Speaker 2: be out of candy and there'll be a lot of
Speaker 2: kids bouncing off the fucking walls at their house, and
Speaker 2: it's all gonna because of me.
Speaker 4: And the later dude, that's you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: If you're handing out the biggest hall, there's even the
Speaker 1: part to scratch your ego a little bit, like if
Speaker 1: they're coming to your house first, or it's a newer
Speaker 1: trick or treater, just knowing you're not going to get
Speaker 1: this anywhere else.
Speaker 2: Dude, the shitty part about my house is I get
Speaker 2: no trigger treaters.
Speaker 4: I know it's true.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sucks. But what I think I want to
Speaker 2: do this year. I don't have two days to do it,
Speaker 2: three days to do it. But I want to get
Speaker 2: like this giant cauldron and put it like in my
Speaker 2: driveway and just fill it with candy and just see
Speaker 2: if my god, next year we should host like a
Speaker 2: trunk or treat. Yeah, that'd be sick. I'd be into
Speaker 2: that where people go to like a.
Speaker 1: Parking lot and you just trigger treat out of your yeah,
Speaker 1: and you hand out candy there. There there's somewhe around Nashville.
Speaker 1: Massive yeah, yeah, yeah, I think we should host the
Speaker 1: Trunker treat. I think that'd be sick. That'd be fun,
Speaker 1: that would be and you're about to enter a sick
Speaker 1: face to like your little ones old enough to trigger
Speaker 1: treat and just like getting them in the spirit. I'm
Speaker 1: scared of everything, kind of like, hey, daddy's got you.
Speaker 2: Peak mug with that right now with my two kids.
Speaker 2: I woke up this morning, went got myself and I
Speaker 2: sort of workout, came home. My daughter was a butterfly.
Speaker 2: She's so ready with that party. Yeah, she's already ready, dude,
Speaker 2: she's she's a butterfly. She's ready to go. It's fucking
Speaker 2: it's juicy.
Speaker 4: Hey, but I'm sorry to interrupt, but have you I
Speaker 4: just got a new crossbow yesterday. Look, Brian sent me
Speaker 4: at a crossbow. Yeah, you still want to go? Yes,
Speaker 4: it's legal, it's completely Yeah. My I would him a
Speaker 4: deer camera in his backyard yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, gott relationships and stud Yeah. Our relationship kind of
Speaker 2: started that way, did it not.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think one of the first texts I ever see
Speaker 4: you was can I put a deer camera in your backyard?
Speaker 2: I was like, I was like this, I don't think
Speaker 2: your name was saved in my phone, but I was like, yeah.
Speaker 2: Then every once in a while just be like, hey,
Speaker 2: I was over at your house today, like I had
Speaker 2: to change a bat, change the batteries.
Speaker 1: They're just thinking, I don't know if I can let
Speaker 1: you kill one of these animals.
Speaker 2: You used to ask, and now I just feel like
Speaker 2: it just ghosts, and every once in a while they're
Speaker 2: like a truck in my parking line, bike he must
Speaker 2: be here man, just doing his thing. But yes, yes,
Speaker 2: I really do want to go because we went with
Speaker 2: Steve Vanella and I did the meat eater duck. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I did the duck hunting. I thought that was really
Speaker 2: cool and so super green. Have no idea how to
Speaker 2: do it.
Speaker 4: But crazy thing, Okay, you could. You can legally do it.
Speaker 4: It's completely legal. You have to be like five hundred
Speaker 4: feet from your house, which is super easy. And the
Speaker 4: crazy thing is if you if you kill a deer,
Speaker 4: you can only hunt with a bow in town right.
Speaker 4: If you if you kill a deer and it goes
Speaker 4: into somebody else's yard, the only caveat is that you
Speaker 4: have to legally go to that person's front door and
Speaker 4: either ask or attempt to ask. If you can retrieve
Speaker 4: your dead deer from the yard.
Speaker 2: Oh really, that's it though, that's all. And so we
Speaker 2: can do this in my backyard.
Speaker 4: We could do it and your yeah, like up in
Speaker 4: your Oh my god, that was you. Yeah, where was
Speaker 4: that at? That was in Louisiana. That was a that's
Speaker 4: what they that's what real hunters they frowned upon. But
Speaker 4: I had never done it. It's called that's a high
Speaker 4: fence deer.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'd like to go on the trips, but
Speaker 1: we go down in South Texas. Yeah, nil guy. Have
Speaker 1: you ever heard of nil guy? Yeah, so the South
Speaker 1: Texas antelope. Yeah, we go after those, we get up,
Speaker 1: we get after some white tail. But it's a fun trip.
Speaker 1: I go on it every year. And then people talk
Speaker 1: about the high fence thing. I'm just think like I'm
Speaker 1: just trying to have some fun, right right, right right.
Speaker 2: It's always crazy when there's like these little bastards in
Speaker 2: America in a high fence. Oh yeah, it feels a
Speaker 2: little squirrely to me.
Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, people killing zebras and ship like that
Speaker 4: in Texas.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's wild, but it's kind of like a petting zoo.
Speaker 2: It's kind of like it kind of isilling the whole
Speaker 2: helicopter assault game.
Speaker 1: I think that would be.
Speaker 2: So it's like a fun little deal.
Speaker 1: Do hog hunting some night vision.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've done that, I've I've not done the helicopter.
Speaker 4: I was going to do it one time. And I'm
Speaker 4: left handed. We were in such a small helicopter that
Speaker 4: you had to be right handed to be actually be
Speaker 4: able to shoot because the guys control things on the
Speaker 4: right side of the I'm.
Speaker 1: A lefty as well, left lefty also.
Speaker 4: Three lefties, let's go. But yeah, the night vision thing
Speaker 4: is sick. And if you guys ever need a hookup,
Speaker 4: I know like a million people that do that, and
Speaker 4: it's we should have a video.
Speaker 6: Just have them.
Speaker 4: They have them that record that you can hit record
Speaker 4: on your thermal scope and like it. It records it
Speaker 4: so you can get to see like you're Have you.
Speaker 1: Ever done this hog hunting with a knife?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What that sounds insane? I got all my buddies back
Speaker 1: dogs and ship.
Speaker 4: Yah, seems insane, so terrifying, it's awesome. It sounds like
Speaker 4: poking a hole in a fucking like CO two cartridge
Speaker 4: or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, poking a hole and it's.
Speaker 1: Just like, will go into it.
Speaker 4: And those dogs are called curd dogs. They're they're baying dogs.
Speaker 4: That's what they do. So you send it like four
Speaker 4: or five caurd dogs out and they go find the
Speaker 4: pig and they work together to bay it, so they
Speaker 4: keep it, you know, they work to where they circle
Speaker 4: it up, you know what I mean. And then you
Speaker 4: have a pit bull or some sort of bulldog. And
Speaker 4: once you realize, once you can kind of hear that
Speaker 4: the pig is is bade up, like you can tell
Speaker 4: because like he's nipping at the dogs like that. All
Speaker 4: the dogs are barking, but you'll hear a dog kind
Speaker 4: of wine or whatever like he's that you can just tell.
Speaker 4: And then they just let that fucking pit bull loose
Speaker 4: and he runs in there and he grabs it somewhere
Speaker 4: and just holds it down, and then people go in and.
Speaker 1: Just take it down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a way different than I thought it
Speaker 2: would be. I really thought it was like the ending
Speaker 2: scene of The Gray, like you kind of just you're
Speaker 2: just off deal.
Speaker 1: I'm too, like emotionally attached to dogs because I hear
Speaker 1: the stories of yeah, yeah, yeah, there's casual for sure,
Speaker 1: Yeah that's that's real.
Speaker 4: But these guys, the guys that do this, those dogs
Speaker 4: are their tools, you know what I mean. It's a
Speaker 4: different mentality like that, that is they're not it's not
Speaker 4: their pets, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, dude, the pro having a dog, what's up?
Speaker 1: Show?
Speaker 2: Oh five minutes? Having a dog that does everything you say.
Speaker 2: I have not ever had the luxury of that happening
Speaker 2: in my life.
Speaker 1: Waffle is not that type of animal.
Speaker 2: But it's something about that, dude. I've been around people like, hey,
Speaker 2: go look at the dog. Go wait in the truck,
Speaker 2: and they'll just run and go sit in the truck.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I've never really hearing they grab one.
Speaker 1: I've seen that too. Yeah that's the fridge and grab
Speaker 1: one that has a little rope on the fridge.
Speaker 2: Whatever.
Speaker 1: As you get that, and they'll talk about shot collar
Speaker 1: training like, oh, okay.
Speaker 2: Show call trains a little while, Yeah you did. My
Speaker 2: little husky I got over there though she got that
Speaker 2: shot called on twenty four seven.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about getting Waffle for what get that thing?
Speaker 1: To listen, bro, Waffle, don't don't do anything. We need
Speaker 1: her to get off the damn couch. When I tell
Speaker 1: her to get off the couch, it's always a fight.
Speaker 4: What kind of dog is Waffle bulldog? What kind of bulldog?
Speaker 2: Just an underbite.
Speaker 1: English bull dog? Yeah, English bulldog. I'm thinking of how
Speaker 1: many different bull but yeah, that's waffl right, doesn't how
Speaker 1: much you love that dog?

Speaker 4: Tongue always out.
Speaker 1: I loved I was obsessed with Waffle until Rue came.

Speaker 2: they felt about your tier talk.
Speaker 1: Okay, My Tier three is gonna be a kit Cat bar.
Speaker 1: I love kid Cat bars. I'm not somebody who goes
Speaker 1: on my way to get a kit Cat bar, but
Speaker 1: when I do on Halloween, I very much enjoy the
Speaker 1: kit Cat bar my Tier two when people have them.
Speaker 1: Heath is one of my favorite candies. A Heath bar
Speaker 1: is one of my favorite candies. I love putting them
Speaker 1: in ice cream. I love the Heath blizzarded dairy Queen.
Speaker 1: I love Heath bars. And then you throw some cormel
Speaker 1: on top. Of the ascream. I know I'm getting off
Speaker 1: the path with Spotober, but Halloween, when people have heath bars,
Speaker 1: it fires me up. My Tier one and it's a
Speaker 1: no brainer for me. But it's a fast break. It's
Speaker 1: a Reese's fast break. That is an absolute no brainer.
Speaker 1: If you get a king size one. When we go
Speaker 1: on our fall torch trips and we stop at the
Speaker 1: gas station, I'm always getting a king sized fast break.
Speaker 1: But it can't a fast break. A Rece's fast break
Speaker 1: is my number one candy in the world.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 2: That concludes my two tongue seasoned.
Speaker 4: Vengeance match.
Speaker 5: Fire, tasty, accurate, adequate, Oh, adequate, Yes, do you want
Speaker 5: to go?
Speaker 4: I'm ready all right. Tier three, uh the Hershey's Cookies
Speaker 4: and cream h bar. I loved it as a kid,
Speaker 4: but I can't really eat it much as an adult
Speaker 4: because I feel like, if you eat the whole thing,
Speaker 4: it just makes me feel.
Speaker 1: Like I was gonna say it gets it.
Speaker 4: Tell me going a little bit, yeah, very like one
Speaker 4: one or two, little of the one one or two
Speaker 4: because it's it's sections. You can ration it a little bit, you.
Speaker 1: Know, Yeah, a little delicacy with your child.
Speaker 4: Tier two is a Snickers bar, but with the almonds
Speaker 4: and not the peanuts, dude. And for an added bonus,
Speaker 4: frozen so fucking good. And for me, a number one
Speaker 4: is heath Bar. Dude. There's just toffee is undefeated, dude,
Speaker 4: heath Bar number one frozen ice cream, whatever it is.
Speaker 4: I love. This is the most fatass thing everybody. I
Speaker 4: love how it gets stuck in your teeth and you

Speaker 4: That concludes my tear.
Speaker 2: Talk love almost justice.
Speaker 8: Interesting veteran move hyphenated.
Speaker 2: I've dated cookies and cream lost me with the almonds.
Speaker 1: The almonds a little bit, all right, but all.
Speaker 2: Great selections, all great selections. Let's get started. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: give an honorable mention to the Payday. I think the
Speaker 2: payday is delicious. I like, as a child, take all
Speaker 2: the little peanuts off myself, one at a time and
Speaker 2: then enjoy whatever that little caramel center is, that little
Speaker 2: caramel bar in the middle is delicious. My Tier three
Speaker 2: is going to go to the heath Bar, and I
Speaker 2: think it's only gotten better for me as I've gotten older.
Speaker 2: I don't think I respected the heath Bar as I
Speaker 2: should have when I was a young buck, a young child.
Speaker 2: My Tier two is going to go to the packets
Speaker 2: of sour Patch Kid watermelons when you're able to get
Speaker 2: them sometimes a sour Patch kid. This is just a
Speaker 2: regular back that'll do well for those of you that
Speaker 2: don't know me hard. You might notice about me much
Speaker 2: more of a gummy guy than I am a chocolate gun. However,
Speaker 2: because the back size, it doesn't make my Tier one.
Speaker 1: He's got some sweetness to him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and my tier Yeah, and my Tier one is
Speaker 2: going to be your classic Reese's peanut buttercups. There's something
Speaker 2: special about having those two little bastards sitting there looking
Speaker 2: at you, talking ship that happened to be the first
Speaker 2: ones to catch casualty when you open up that pillow
Speaker 2: case after the night is over of ravaging neighborhoods.
Speaker 4: And that is my tier talk, well done, inconsistent, You're
