1
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 1: I think maybe you guys have heard me talk about

2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: this before, but the process of my dogs has gotten

3
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 1: extremely tedious, but I do it every day. So little backstory,

4
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: because we have a little room here, we have little

5
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: space to stretch out. I got Stanley about six years ago.

6
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: Stanley's a bulldog. I never wanted a bulldog. I never

7
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: set out to get a bulldog because I had heard

8
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 1: that they were, I mean honestly, very expensive, not only

9
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: to buy, but to take care of. And my other dog, Bradley,

10
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: had died and had Bradley for thirteen years. My second book,

11
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: I dedicated him, and I think he would have loved

12
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: to have read that dedication, except he's a dog can't

13
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: he can't read. So he had died and that's pretty

14
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: rough on me. And so I didn't know if I

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: was never going to get another dog, honestly, and I

16
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: was talking about it a little bit and John Party

17
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: reached out and he said, Hey, my mom has bulldogs.

18
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: Do you want one of these bulldogs. This bulldog's got

19
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: like a messed up eye, and if you just pay

20
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 1: to get it here, you can have it. And so

21
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: I was like, great, it's a sign. It's a sign

22
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: from the bulldog God, and so I said, yeah, cool,

23
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: because I definitely wasn't going to pay bulldog price. I

24
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: just would I went down and adopted a dog. I mean,

25
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: that's how I got Bradley, the dog before that. He

26
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: was actually a dog that was bred. He was in

27
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: a kennel and they had rated the kennel and so

28
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: they had all these dogs and we saw it on

29
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: the news. So I just went and got one of

30
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: those dogs and that's where I got him. And he

31
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: was a staff retire bull, basically a miniature pibble, and

32
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: he was awesome. So I didn't know if I want

33
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: another dog. Got Stanley and immediately he's a big jerk,

34
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: always running through stuff, always biting. He's a puppy, so

35
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: it was cute. As he got older, it wasn't so cute,

36
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: but tons of energy and I heard bulldog just fat

37
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: and did nothing. Not exactly the case. He's great now

38
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: love him, but man, the first like six months, I

39
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: was like, I don't think I like this dog, but

40
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: I was in it and my then girlfriend, then fiance,

41
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: then wife, all same person. She was like, no, we're

42
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: gonna love this dog. We're gonna love the meanness out

43
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: of it, and we did, and he's an excellent dog.

44
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: Very expensive. I think at this point we've lost track

45
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: of all the minor and major surgeries. It's got to

46
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: be somewhere around fifteen, mostly major torn muscles, getting his

47
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: eye fixed, getting his wiener fixed. He's torn both acls.

48
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: And did you know, and I've mentioned this before, that

49
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: dogs have basically two arms and two legs, not four legs,

50
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: because they don't have acls in their front legs arms.

51
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 1: They only have a in their back legs and that's

52
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: why those are legs, because they work like legs. So

53
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: had him, we'll just say fifteen surgeries, thousands and thousands

54
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: and thousands of dollars. Recently, he got a staph infection,

55
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: and thank god we are close friends with doctor Josie,

56
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: because that's not just take a pill. It was months

57
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: and months of trying to get the right medications. So

58
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: that's what we did, and his stomach was all jacked

59
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: up and he was pooping water forever he was feeling bad,

60
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: he really wouldn't want to get out of bed. And

61
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: now that there's a big difference in bulldog from getting

62
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: out of bed and not getting out of bed, I

63
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: guess it's just how happy you are when you're in

64
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: the bed, because he was someone who would stay in

65
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: bed all the time, but he'd be kind of happy

66
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: when you get out. In this instance, he would stay

67
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: in the bed, not be happy and be sad. So

68
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: we knew something was up. So we were all this medicine,

69
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: and so months later after going through a process, and

70
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: she was calling like her old professors at Ohio State

71
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: who run the lab unit. I'm making up words now,

72
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: but that's what she was doing. She's like, what do

73
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: we do with this dog? She was getting blood levels.

74
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: We thought he actually might die, which made me really

75
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: sad because I do love him, which, by the way,

76
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: don't get a bulldog, not unless you have like an

77
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: extra hundred thousand dollars for his whole life, because they're

78
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: going to be sick the whole time because they are

79
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: bred basically so perfectly. Where ll are The dog that

80
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: we adopted that we found is like iron, nothing affects her.

81
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 1: So Stanley sick again, and we're going through the process,

82
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: and he's starting to lose a lot of his hair

83
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: because he'd get these big wet spots on him from

84
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: having staff infection, and his hair would fall out, and

85
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: he had these I didn't put him on Instagram for

86
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: a while because they had all these gaping holes. And

87
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: he was like, why don't you put me on Instagram?

88
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you don't even know what Instagram is

89
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: your dog? And he's like, ah, he's like, you don't

90
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: follow me, and I'm like, you don't have an account,

91
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: you don't have fingers. So through all the process trial

92
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: and error, he'd get pretty much better, get another wet

93
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: spot on him, have to start over. He'd get pretty

94
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: much better, a smaller wet spot, but still a wet spot.

95
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: And I don't even know how to describe the wet spot,

96
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: but it was on his body and it was some

97
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: sort of pussy liquid. All the hair would fall out

98
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: and then it would just be bald and he would

99
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: look like he was dying. Finally got him on track,

100
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: hair started growing back. But the process with feeding him

101
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: every morning is we wake up I do. I feed

102
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: him every morning and every night I wake up and

103
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 1: first I go and we have a bag of fiber.

104
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: That's the same fiber that you and I would eat

105
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: if we're reading fiber. Now I've done fiber pills or

106
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: I've done the cookies. But we have this bag of

107
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 1: fiber and his a little scoop. Put a little scoop

108
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: in that. We have his little tiny bowls. We put

109
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: scoop in the bowl and I fill I don't know

110
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: a few ounces of water and mix it up with

111
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: my finger and I have to let it sit for

112
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: like five to seven minutes until it hardens. It feels

113
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: more like rubber than it does. I could pure solid,

114
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,679
Speaker 1: but you get it. So he also has this powder

115
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: that he takes, and so I gotta put the powder

116
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: in the fiber. So from when I start to when

117
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: I just finished the first part, it's probably seven minutes.

118
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: It's a probotic. So we had a bulldog right now

119
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: having fiber on a probotic before he even gets his food.

120
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: So we go in and in the morning, he's got

121
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: two pills that he takes. Take the first bill, put

122
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: it inside of a pill pocket, Take a second bill,

123
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: put it inside the same pill pocket, and squeeze it

124
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: up and give it to him. Ella, our other dog,

125
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: watches him get a treat basically, so she's like, I

126
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: need a treat, so I have to give her a

127
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: pill pocket. Hers has no pill in it. So then

128
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: I put both of their foods in a bowl I

129
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: give ell Or hers. I feed them in different rooms

130
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 1: because she's a little resource guarter. So I put his

131
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: food in, then I dump the probotic that is in

132
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: the fiber into and then I put another scoop on

133
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: top of that. Mix it all up, put it out.

134
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: It's like a nine minute or deal. Just feed them

135
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: every morning. We'd do the same thing at five pm,

136
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: except now I have to do three pills, and so

137
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: it was many, many more pills than that. We have

138
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: actually limited our pill intake. It's far less than it

139
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: was even three months ago. I think he's getting better,

140
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: but he's been he runs now. It's crazy to see

141
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: him back healthy again. But he's six years old. And

142
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: bulldogs there are live spans only like nine, which sucks

143
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: to think about. But I would not recommend anybody from

144
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: the jump to get a bulldog unless you just wanted

145
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: a freaking bulldog. Don't get a bulldog. I love him,

146
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't trade him for anything, but a bulldog is

147
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: bad news. Now. Ell Aer, on the other hand, whole

148
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: different animal literally and figuratively. Or he's small and fat.

149
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: She is tall and lean and runs like crazy and

150
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: needs to get her energy out. And so the thing

151
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: that we've been dealing with with them recently is she's

152
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: a perimeter checker, so she's always running around checking the

153
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: perimeter for a way out. She'd know how good she

154
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: has it. She wants a way out of a great life.

155
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: She must not remember the mean I don't know six

156
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: months on the street before we got her, but she

157
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: was a mean dog too when we got her. Now

158
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: for different reasons. She was mean because she had to

159
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: protect anything she had, which is why she's still a

160
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: bit of a resource card, and so she would bite

161
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: all the time too, bite bite, bite, bite, bite, like crazy.

162
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: She's the sweetest now, no real risk of that at all,

163
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: but she always wants to break out. She's always looking

164
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 1: for animals too, So we have a few acres of

165
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: woods in the backyard, and at times she will go

166
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: and kill an animal and bring it to the house

167
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: and sometimes bring it in the house through the doggy door,

168
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: and I try to get out of the house from

169
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,079
Speaker 1: my wife sees it because it's pretty disgusting. Rabbit, squirrels,

170
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 1: grab bag. I mean, she's brought an animals before I

171
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: even know what it was. Because she had destroyed them.

172
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: And you may have seen it on Instagram. But she

173
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,959
Speaker 1: found a hole, and I went and searched through the

174
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: backyard to find it, all the back woods because again

175
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: we got a few acres of woods and it's thick.

176
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: It's like thick and thick. There are parts of it's

177
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: hard to get through. So I ord her two machetes

178
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: off of Amazon, and I went and cut a trail

179
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: in the woods just to get back in the woods

180
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: to try to find her. It wasn't to get everywhere

181
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: in the woods. Some of it I can't get to

182
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: trees of fallen again super thick for a reason, right security, privacy.

183
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: But she found a hole. Turns out it wasn't a

184
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: hole she found. It was the neighbors have a tree.

185
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: The tree fell onto a fence, destroyed the fence, and

186
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: it wasn't a hole. It was a full portal to

187
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: a whole different world. And so we have air tags

188
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: on her. And the first time, my wife's like, Eller's gone,

189
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: and I'm like what, So we go find her. Luckily

190
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: we found her. She was across the street and it's

191
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: a very very busy street, and it was ten thirty

192
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: at night and she's a black dog, so it's hard

193
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: to see at night. Luck that she came out in

194
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: the car. All good. It's happened four times. The first

195
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: three though I couldn't find the hole. I thought it

196
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: was a small hole. I went and I pluged up

197
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: all these little holes. I'm like, there's no way she

198
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: can get out, and not knowing that it was a

199
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: full fence that was crashed down over beside the neighbors yard.

200
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: So anyway, the neighbors put up a temporary fence until

201
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: they get the other one fixed, which they've almost got

202
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: to fix. A big shout out to my neighbors because

203
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: they jumped on a quick and somehow she still got through.

204
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what she got to do again, tries

205
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: me insane. She either went under the temporary fence, over

206
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: the temper eight fence, or there's another tree on another

207
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: part of the fence that is collapsed that I can't find.

208
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: But we got lucky. It's four times, four times, and

209
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: we found her every time. I told my wife were

210
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: going to get her last night. We've been very fortunate

211
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: in finding her. It's not always going to be like this,

212
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: I know it. I always have the worst in my

213
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: mind the worst that we're just gonna drive out and

214
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: it ain't gonna be good. We're gonna find her and

215
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 1: it ain't gonna be good. So but I'm looking at

216
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: them both look at me as I record this podcast,

217
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: and very happy that both of them are alive because

218
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: we've been through it with them, both of them, Stanley

219
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: a lot more than all or Elers just knew at

220
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: escaping Hoo do you neat dog? For sure? So that's

221
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: been a part of what's been happening today. I made

222
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: the mistake of taking a nap way too late in

223
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: the afternoon. I'm not a nap guy. I would love

224
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 1: to be a nap guy. I'm not anti nap. I'm

225
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: very pro nap. I'm very pro nap for me. But

226
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: much like the food that I eat, if I don't

227
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: nap by a certain time, I cannot take a nap

228
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: because it will affect the rest of my day negatively.

229
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 1: Now food, meaning if it's past like one point fifteen,

230
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna eat lunch because it's gonna affect my dinner.

231
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 1: I'll just go without because if I have lunch at

232
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: two o'clock and dinner is at six, if dinner's at

233
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: five thirty because I do eat a little earlier because

234
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: I do wake up earlier. Then it messes up dinner.

235
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: Then I can't eat dinner till seven thirty or eight,

236
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: or I don't enjoy dinner at all because it's eight

237
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: three hours ago. And then when I have dinner at

238
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: seven thirty or eight, I don't go to sleep until

239
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: nine thirty or ten because my body's still dieget to

240
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: the food. And even if it's not affecting me, it

241
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: affects I'm mind to the point where I think it is.

242
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: So that's basically my brain. So I donate after like

243
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 1: one fifteen or one twenty max for lunch because I

244
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: would like to have dinner. I will just go without.

245
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: Same thing for a nap. And the reason I don't

246
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 1: take naps is because usually I'm not home in time

247
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 1: to take a nap, or if I am home, i'm

248
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 1: back over in this studio, which I'm doing this for

249
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: my home studio. I'm back over in this studio and

250
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: I'm doing a podcast, or like right now, we're producing

251
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: this nineties podcast which has taking us probably three months

252
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: of this time or only through nineteen ninety three, and

253
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: for me to record it an hour episode takes like

254
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: an hour and thirty minutes because I got to record

255
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: the whole thing. We go back, We do pickups, so

256
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: there's always something to do. So if I cannot lay

257
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 1: down and get a nap and be awake by twelve

258
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: fifty nine PM, I cannot take a nap because it

259
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: will affect We just went through it with my eating.

260
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: If I take a nap at two and I sleep

261
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,199
Speaker 1: until two forty five or three, then I'm all messed

262
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 1: up and I'm not gonna go to bed till eleven

263
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: o'clock because my sleep cycle was all off. Anyway, I

264
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: screwed up to day. I took a nap way late,

265
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: not purposefully. I did get in shorts and a cut off,

266
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: and I thought, I'm not feeling great. I'm gonna lay

267
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: in bed for a few minutes and just watch TikTok

268
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: gather my thoughts, which never really works because if I

269
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: lay down, there's no gathering of thoughts. There's no laying

270
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: down to kind of regather energy. It's laying down to

271
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 1: probably fall asleep. But I wasn't not feeling good. I

272
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: wasn't I don't have a bug, but something's up, and

273
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: so I lay down and I woke up like an

274
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: hour half later, and I woke up pretty close to

275
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: four o'clock, which definitely screwed up my day. And so

276
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 1: my wife text me and she's like, Hey, do you

277
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: want to go to so and so and get some food?

278
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: And I didn't see it for like thirty minutes. So

279
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: I responded back. I was like, I fell asleep, but

280
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: she was yeah, figured mostly because I'm on the phone

281
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,719
Speaker 1: all the time and if I don't return a text

282
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: message in like fifteen minutes, I'm probably asleep. Or maybe

283
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 1: I'm in the gym. And we have a gym here

284
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: at the house and I have this program that I

285
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: work out on it. It's an app that I spent

286
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: like ninety nine dollars for the whole year and it

287
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: kind of sucks, but I mirror it to the screen

288
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: in the gym, so if text come, I don't see it.

289
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: And it was around that time which text me, so

290
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: I woke up and I was like, oh God, what

291
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: time is it. It's one of those two where you

292
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: don't really know, since it was like four thirty, and

293
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: I do wake up and it's there's a four as

294
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: the front number. Sometimes I was like, oh, no, is

295
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: it four in the morning or is it four pm?

296
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: So I went down to this place called flower Child.

297
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: I do believe, pretty healthy place, pretty good. What sucks

298
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: as a canny dairy? And she had full CASEO. That's

299
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: what I like about my wife. It also drives me

300
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: the craziest. She gives no craps about me, net respect,

301
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: Like I don't need dairy, but you know what if

302
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: she wants a full k so she's gonna have it.

303
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: It's like, ah, it sucks for you that you can't

304
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: have dairy, but I'm not gonna let that affect me.

305
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: And I respect that because I probably do the same

306
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: thing in many other ways. So we go down have dinner.

307
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: But I was feeling a little bit off right, and

308
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: so one of the things that I did is I

309
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: woke up and I saw the nominees for the CMA

310
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: Awards this year, And not so much to music Awards.

311
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: It's basically the same every year. Every once in a while

312
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: there's something a little different, but it's just basically the same.

313
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: So you really you already kind of know who's gonna

314
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: be nominated for the stuff. But then I saw the

315
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: daily national radio show nominees, and I got irritated. Now

316
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: I was a little triggered because I just woke up

317
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: from a nap, but I got a little irritated and

318
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: we weren't on the list. And some of the shows

319
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: I know, I like them, like Highway Mornings with Cody Allen.

320
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: I like Cody a lot from serious good dude. Happy

321
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: for Cody to be on there, riding with rowdy rowdy yates.

322
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: Not familiar, Sure it's great. The Robin Holly Stone, Rob

323
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: Stone and Holly Hutton. I like them, Will Height and

324
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: Wall Darren, Will Height and Tim Wall. I don't know them. Sure,

325
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: it's a great show. Big d and Bubba And so

326
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: there are these shows and five are nominated, and I'm like,

327
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna get nominated. A little crazy if you ask me,

328
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: but okay, I still take it. I hit save image,

329
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: crop it real quick, send it off to my managers

330
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: of two they work together, Tom and Morgan number one,

331
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 1: who used to be the executive prowser on the radio show.

332
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: She's also the president of the Nashville Podcast Network. And

333
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: I send it off and I'm like, we didn't even

334
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: get nominated. What is happening? And like, I'm a little irritable,

335
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: and again it's because I woke up late from a nap,

336
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 1: and also because yeah, my feelings were a little hurt,

337
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: and I was angry because it's just a board of people.

338
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 1: It's not like the actual CMAS now, that is a

339
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: massive body of voters in the country music space. It

340
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 1: could be a record label, it could be pr it

341
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: could be radio. It's thousands of thousands of people. So

342
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: when people get mad at the CMAS, they're not actually

343
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: getting mad at a board. They're getting mad at a

344
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,679
Speaker 1: faceless group of ten thousand voters, not fan based, but

345
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 1: very industry based. This in the Broadcast Awards, that's not

346
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: the case. It is a board of like eight people

347
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: and they pick, and so on my mind, I'm like,

348
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna find out who these eight people are. I'm

349
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: give a peace of my mind. I never actually do that.

350
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: And so I sent it off and I'm like, we

351
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: weren't nominating, a little bit angry, a little bit sad,

352
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: And my manager get back and goes, actually won last year,

353
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: so you're not eligible this year. And I was like really,

354
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: And so he sent me the twenty twenty four personality

355
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: of the year winners we won. Yeah, so there's a

356
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: lot of energy that I didn't really want to put

357
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: out there. That I put out there. It didn't go

358
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: to anybody except my own team. And partially I blame

359
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: myself for not napping earlier and waking up a bit discombobulated. Yeah,

360
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: I blame it aut there.

361
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,360
Speaker 2: Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor,

362
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 2: and we're back on the Bobby Cast.

363
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 1: I've been a bit ear double anyway lately. If it's

364
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,959
Speaker 1: just me and you talking, I don't know who you are,

365
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: but I appreciate you listening. Every time Dancing with the

366
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 1: Stars starts back, it gets brought up a lot, and

367
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: I like it because I'm very proud that I won

368
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: that show, and by me saying I want I understand

369
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: if you voted for me, we won this thing together.

370
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: Because I was not a good dancer. There's no part

371
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: of me that claims that I was a good dancer.

372
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 1: For the record, now, did I grow the most Absolutely?

373
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 1: Did I have the biggest fan following? Yes, they've told

374
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: me that since they can tell you nothing while you

375
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: do the show. But yes, and so I will still

376
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 1: see people talk about my season online. Well, By the way,

377
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: I went up to barstool last week. I was doing

378
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: some promo for my football podcast with Matt Castle, and

379
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: that was a lot of fun because I really liked

380
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: the shows that I went on. I went and I

381
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: hung out with Big Cat a little bit on the YAC,

382
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 1: I did macro dosing with PFT, I did mostly sports

383
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: with Brandon and Titus also shout out Big Ta on Macrodosing,

384
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: and arion Arian wasn't there. He lives in Houston and

385
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 1: does the show from Houston. But Big t anyway, these

386
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: are all people like in my personal entertainment space that

387
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: I jo listening to and so it was kind of cool.

388
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: And I went up and I am just interviewed, did

389
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: an hour basically on two of the shows, in like

390
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: thirty minutes on another one of them, and it was

391
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: go up, be compelling hopefully and then promote lots, to say,

392
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: my NFL show with Matt Cassell. And that's an audience

393
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: that hopefully I can get more people to come to.

394
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: Right that Barstol's mostly a male audience where mine for

395
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: the most part it's sixty forty female. Right, And for

396
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: the sports shows, I'm trying to find the females that

397
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: like sports or the males that listens, if I can

398
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: going to come over and spend a little time on

399
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: our sports shows, twenty five whistles or lots to say,

400
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: So we go over, we do lots to say, do

401
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: all the promo for that show, which, by the way,

402
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: I hated. I hate watching clips of me because sometimes

403
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: I'm just too much of a try hard because I

404
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 1: feel like I need to do a great job. So

405
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 1: I don't go armed with stories, but I definitely go

406
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: armed with energy. And sometimes because I am a bit

407
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: of a try hard, it comes off wonderfully. Sometimes it

408
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: comes off terribly, and it's one of the two. It

409
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 1: hardly ever comes off as hey, it's a pretty good appearance.

410
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: It's either great or awful. And I really wanted to

411
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: do a good job on these shows, and I walked

412
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: into two of the three already in progress, and so

413
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 1: I don't really feel like I did that great a job, honestly.

414
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: I know. When I went over to the Yak, which

415
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: is like a two hour YouTube show and Bigcat's hosting

416
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: it and there's a lot of people there, I walked

417
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: in midway through a conversation because I was coming off

418
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: another podcast, and Bigcat was like, Hey, do you have

419
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: an internal dialogue? And I was like, I have two

420
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: and a little bit. I was being funny, but what

421
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: I meant also was like it doesn't stop just from

422
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: hearing me talk about naps and food, right, Like it's

423
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 1: everything is anxiety in a form inside of me. Not

424
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: as severe as some people, but it's just constant. It's

425
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: like it's constantly on. And that's what I meant. It

426
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: just didn't come off that funny. It came off as

427
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: kind of try hard. I didn't like that. I didn't

428
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: like how I came off. And by the way, I

429
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: thought it was crazy that the guy they were talking about,

430
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 1: he did not have an internal monologue. If it's one

431
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: one talking dialogue is two people talking. But I mean,

432
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 1: I guess I was talking to me, but he was like, no,

433
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: I don't have that, and I'm like that that's crazy.

434
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 1: But I like that and like I came off it

435
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: was kind of I think I had an overall a

436
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: C plus appearance, but yeah, I didn't really like I

437
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: came off there. And then even on Mostly Sports, the

438
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: show I went in, I did that for a whole hour.

439
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: They wanted to talk a bit about country music and

440
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: Mark Titus big country music fan. I almost wrote a

441
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 1: bookbou country music, he said during during COVID. And I've

442
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: been a fan of Mark since, you know, back when

443
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: he was on The Ringer Days and now at Barstool.

444
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: He was a walk on at Ohio State. I don't

445
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 1: know him from that. I just know that from him.

446
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: But when I went to host for Rich Eisen to

447
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: fill in, I had Mark Titus come on as a

448
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 1: guest as a college basketball expert. Like I'm a big

449
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 1: fan of what he does, and so I went in

450
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 1: and he was like, let's talk about country music. And

451
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: what I also know is that probably a lot of

452
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: their audience and they're the host, so I follow them

453
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: probably don't want to hear me talking about country music

454
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: or them they didn't come there for country music. So

455
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: then I know they're all gonna be irritated to me

456
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 1: because I'm in there and we're talking about country music.

457
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: So I have this guilt already, and I have this

458
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 1: is all happening while we're doing the bit. I'm like, man,

459
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: people are gonna hate me because they don't want to

460
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: hear about this. This is my fault and I'm not

461
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: doing a good job, and then I just try to

462
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: match or raise the energy because if I raised the energy,

463
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: possibly it can get funnier. And I had some funny

464
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: one lines, but I didn't feel like that performance was

465
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: great because I see clips of it and I'm like,

466
00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: look like I'm trying too hard. Went on Macrodo saying

467
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: another of us a better appearance, so loved it, had

468
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 1: a great time. I was super grateful that they had

469
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: me and they allowed me to come on all these

470
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: shows and promote lots to say, but man, I just

471
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: hate me. Sometimes it's a weird job and career whenever

472
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: everything's about you, but you get really tired of you.

473
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: And that is a constant struggle with me. We have

474
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: this research that comes back sometimes and it talks about

475
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: what I do good, what I do bad, what I

476
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: do terrible, what are do awesome? And I don't ever

477
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,199
Speaker 1: make wholesale changes because I never allow the research to

478
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: completely modify what I'm doing. But I do listen to

479
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: the research and if it comes back like two times

480
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: in a row, that's something I hate to say testing

481
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: because I'm not going to change who I am, but

482
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: I will change how I deliver it. Sometimes if the

483
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: testing is I coming back for something, Yeah, I'll modify

484
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: it for sure, because I want you guys to get

485
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: the product that you desire. I'm not going to change

486
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 1: the contents of the product, but I can definitely change

487
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 1: how I deliver the product sometimes. So I hate me

488
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: a lot of times because I'm just tired of me.

489
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: And then if it's one of those rare seasons where

490
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: I just get into the comments and everybody's like, you

491
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: make everything about you, and I'm like, bro, I have to.

492
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: The literal name of the show is the Bobby Bone Show,

493
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: and I think I do a great job at not

494
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 1: being a spotlight hog. I don't need to be the

495
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: spotlight all the time. I think if Amy or Eddie

496
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: or Lunchbox or whomever, if they're hot, they get the ball.

497
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: I got no problem with that because we all win.

498
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 1: But the one thing that I can rely on and

499
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: it's up to me to do the relying is me.

500
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: And so that show is essentially about what I find interesting,

501
00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: what's happening in my life of country music, but not

502
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: really that much. Like we play some songs sometimes I

503
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: don't even hear the songs. Interviews and then people will

504
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 1: get on my junk and be like, man, you get

505
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 1: in interviews, and I think I mentioned this at an

506
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 1: early one. You just sometimes you talk about yourself. I'm like, yeah,

507
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to make it a conversation. Man. If

508
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:17,719
Speaker 1: I had to sit there and ask straight questions one

509
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: after the other, it's gonna be every other interview. And

510
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: the only way that I can say interested for an

511
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: hour is to like have a real live conversation. But

512
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: then it's like you make it about I know, trust me.

513
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 1: I get enough me. Sometimes I hate me. I don't

514
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: want to see my face again. I hate watching me

515
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: in these clips. I get more tired of me than

516
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: anybody out there possibly could be tired of me. Because

517
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: you cannot listen. You can turn it. I can't. I

518
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 1: go to the mirror. I'm still right there. And I've

519
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: mentioned before how I really try not to lie, and

520
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: I think if I do it now, it's not on purpose.

521
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: I think I may have said some stuff and I

522
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: can't there's no example here. I may have said some

523
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: stuff and it turns out that maybe it wasn't true,

524
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: or my perception of it was wrong. I'm just covering

525
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: me here. I don't have an example of that. But

526
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: the reason I don't is because with all the shows

527
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: that I do now, I can't remember the lies. So

528
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: if I can't remember that I said something or that

529
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: I did something or felt something, I just go, okay,

530
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 1: how do you feel? Say it and needed to be

531
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: the same as it was whenever I said it on

532
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 1: what other body of work that I set it on.

533
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: So I hate me sometimes, I'd say about half the

534
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: time I hate me, about twenty five percent of the

535
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: time I'm okay with me, about fifteen percent of the

536
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 1: time I'm just tired and I don't care, and about

537
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: ten percent I'm like, hey, you're kind of cool. I've

538
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: been really working on that like yourself more thing, but

539
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 1: that's difficult because everything that I do, especially in the

540
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: public space, has been you have to amplify it or

541
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 1: it's not entertaining. I think having my wife has been

542
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: great because with her it has been Hey, that stuff

543
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: is important, yep, because it gives us security. But they

544
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: could take that from you, and the thing they can't

545
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 1: take from you is who you are. So let's work

546
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: on loving who we are off of a microphone or

547
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: off the camera as much as we do the one

548
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: on the camera, but she knows I hate myself when

549
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 1: it comes to being on mic and on camera. But yeah,

550
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 1: when dancing when the Stars comes up, and I did

551
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: a bunch of interview questions, it happened to be a

552
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: barstool because they had announced that day or the day

553
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: before the new cast. And it's been five or six years,

554
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: it's maybe six, six seven, I don't know. Since I

555
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 1: was on the show and I won, great experience, loved

556
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: it a plus, dit very difficult. Never thought I was

557
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: gonna win, never thought I was gonna lose because I

558
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: was just trying to survive week tweak. I was just

559
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: trying to not be the slowest person so the tiger

560
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: wouldn't eat me. And I still see people talking about

561
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: it as the point. And I really liked my Loo,

562
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: who finished second. He was a kid kid then I

563
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: think he's like sixteen or seventeen then great kid, extremely delightful,

564
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: and I saw him talking about how he got screwed,

565
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: and I don't think Milo got screwed. I think Milo

566
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: was the third best dancer on the show that season.

567
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: I think if you were just screwing over people because

568
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: they were great dancers, which is not what that shows about.

569
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: People want to say that's what it's about, but it's

570
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: not what it's about. Otherwise it would be like, let's

571
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: just find the best dancers in Hollywood and put them

572
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 1: on a dance competition and if you're a good dancer

573
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: already go. That's why the Bachelor of people win a

574
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: lot of times, It's because they have massive fan bases.

575
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: And you know what massive fan bases do. They bring ratings. Now,

576
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that I have a massive fan base,

577
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: but we're dedicated. I appreciate that, and we won the show.

578
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: And I later found out that it was the greatest

579
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 1: gap ever from one to two, and they changed the

580
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: rules so they could keep good people on because good

581
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: people kept getting kicked off. But I saw Milo in

582
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: an interview that came across my for you saying he

583
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: got screwed and they shouldn't have kicked him off. I

584
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: think he got screwed. Third, we're just going off great dancers.

585
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: Tanashe on the Seaton my season was the number one

586
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: greatest dancer by far. Now, she didn't have a wonderful personality,

587
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: so she got kicked off. And personality is just as

588
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 1: much of it, and then two was the Fuller House,

589
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: the guy from Fuller House, and he was and I

590
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: think he had danced at some level. One Pablo de

591
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: Pace I think maybe he had danced and he was excellent,

592
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: like he was a professional dancer. Now he got screwed.

593
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 1: So I think if you're going by who got screwed

594
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 1: the most by being a good dancer, it's Tanashe then

595
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: one Pablo, then Milo, So I don't really think Milo

596
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: got screwed. I think him getting second. I think who

597
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: got screwed getting second or even first was one Pablo.

598
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: That's who got screwed the most because he was at

599
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: tanashe just didn't have the personality best dancer, no personality.

600
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 1: I remember one Pablo was upset when he got kicked off.

601
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: He was like, how can I get kicked off? I'm good,

602
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: But if you don't have it, if you're not number

603
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: one and something, you're not gonna win that show number

604
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: one as being the best dancer or have the biggest

605
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: voting pool. And if you have number one of something,

606
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: you need to have at least top six or seven

607
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: in the other And also at the end, I got

608
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: I got all tens. Now they gave it to me.

609
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: It's kind of like a Okay, you pulled this whole

610
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: thing off, but whenever the New Seas comes about it,

611
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 1: it's all up in my comments. I just get crushed

612
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 1: by all the Dancing with the Stars blogs. Do you

613
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: think that I set out to piss everybody off? No,

614
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: I don't mind it because I didn't do it on purpose.

615
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: If people tend to be pissed off by my actions

616
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: of working really hard, I wasn't even a villain on

617
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: the show. They couldn't even pay me the villain on

618
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: the show because I'm so clueless as to what I

619
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: was doing. Every week, I was like, I have no

620
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: idea what I'm doing. I was falling down, I was

621
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: getting low scores, I was apologizing, I was breaking rules,

622
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: and like I wouldn't know at the very end of

623
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: the dance, I wouldn't know it. So I flow lost once,

624
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: Like no part of me has been angry, bitter, even

625
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: heel in wrestling, there's a face, good guy, heal bad guy.

626
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: I was never even a heel. I've healed a little

627
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: bit in the comments, just because all those goofballs won't

628
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: leave me alone. They're like worst ever, You're the worst ever.

629
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: You know who got screwed won? Pablo Milo. Okay, they

630
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: think it's screwed. I didn't change the roles that I

631
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: was season in twenty seven. Up until season twenty seven,

632
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: that was exactly the same role that everybody else had

633
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: gone through. Also, I didn't want to do the show.

634
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 1: I didn't have interest in doing Dancing with the Stars.

635
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,239
Speaker 1: It was not something I sought out to do. I

636
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 1: got a call from ABC going, hey, before Idle starts,

637
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 1: will you go do Dancing with the Stars? And I'm like, ah, okay,

638
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: what do you mean host it? No, go be a contestant,

639
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: and then after you get kicked off, come over to Idle. Still,

640
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: the coolest thing ever was winning. But everybody being bitter

641
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: five six years later crazy to me. The people that

642
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: are better are the ones that wouldn't have won anyway.

643
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: If what they're bitter about is what they think would

644
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: have allowed them to win, they wouldn't have won because

645
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: in order, the best dancers were tanache Wan, Pablo Milo.

646
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: Those three all could have fought for best Dancer. But

647
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: unless you're also getting a significant part of the vote,

648
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: you're not gonna win. But anyway, I did a whole episode.

649
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: It's just weird to constantly have people angry at you

650
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: for something you didn't do wrong or with any agenda.

651
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: I was clueless, but yeah, that's what's up. So I

652
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: talked about that on barstool on a few of the shows.

653
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: They brought it up because it was they just announced

654
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: the cast. You won. What was that like? And I'm like, terrible, terrible,

655
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 1: isn't It was the hardest thing ever because I was

656
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: living in LA for the most part, Miked and I

657
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: had an apartment. They put you an apartment, they pay

658
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 1: for an apartment, and they put you out there. And

659
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: I didn't stay with everybody else because I had to work.

660
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 1: I was like the one person who had to have

661
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 1: a job while doing the show, and so I had

662
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 1: to work every morning. But where the show starts at

663
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: five Central, six Eastern, it started at three am in

664
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, So that's what I would do. Wake up

665
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: at two, go to the radio station, start at three am,

666
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: work until like eight, which is ten here, go and

667
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 1: train until four or five because you'd have lunch and

668
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: you'd get like four hours with your partner. And then

669
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: I would go and train in a different place by myself,

670
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: and then to work so hard and kill yourself and

671
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: then people still be mad at you. I didn't do

672
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,800
Speaker 1: any I didn't cheat, there's no cheating. I didn't know

673
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: where I was in the running every week. I just

674
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,839
Speaker 1: knew i'd never even got in the bottom three. That

675
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: is a bizarre feeling to have a group of people

676
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: that hate you for a thing that you actually did.

677
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: Because there are certain opinions that I have and I

678
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: get it that people don't agree with, and I'm like, yeah,

679
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: people aren't gonna like this, But I didn't even have

680
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: an opinion. I just tried hard. That's what's bizarre. And

681
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 1: also for a show nobody cares about, people care about

682
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 1: it a lot. It was also kind of weird to

683
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:23,879
Speaker 1: go and do all those shows and we talking about

684
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: a bunch of dudes about dance, but they knew as

685
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 1: much as I did about dance, like nothing. It was

686
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 1: just like, what's that thing? Like, so, yeah, that's what's up.

687
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 3: The Bobby cast will be right back. This is the

688
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:46,360
Speaker 3: Bobby Cast.

689
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: I just kind of came over here, if I'm being honest,

690
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 1: to do like fifteen minutes. I was like, I get

691
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: some stuff on my mind, and I don't feel like

692
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 1: on the radio show, I can get really the stuff

693
00:35:54,400 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: on my mind off like this, because on the Bobby

694
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: Bone Show there are kind of two different shows, one

695
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: on broadcast and one that's podcast. So we do the

696
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: broadcast show and that is very much formatic because it

697
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: has to be because we only have certain amount of

698
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,800
Speaker 1: TI because we've got to get back. We got their commercials,

699
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 1: there are songs, there are affiliates that are jumping out

700
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: of stuff at this point like that. It to me

701
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: is I've got nineteen seconds. I got to get out

702
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 1: in thirteen seconds this segment at five and a half minutes.

703
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: I can go twelve seconds over, but if I do,

704
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm got to have twelve seconds second away to the side.

705
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: I got to make sure to get to Aimy at

706
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: this point. I gotta do it. That is that show.

707
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 1: It used to not be that way, but it definitely

708
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: is now based on how and I gotta be careful

709
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:44,760
Speaker 1: about what I say here because there are rules against

710
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: it based on how we are judged. How about that,

711
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 1: based on how we are professionally judged. There are certain

712
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 1: rules and certain times you gotta do things. And we

713
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 1: also have to get all of the hour in, meaning

714
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 1: if we play two songs an hour, if we have

715
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: this many commercials, if we like I gotta get it

716
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: all in the hour, or like, if we don't get

717
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: a commercial end, the company doesn't make the money for

718
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: that commercial, and that comes back to me. So that

719
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 1: show definitely encapsulated in restrictions, but still fun. Now, what

720
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:22,760
Speaker 1: we used to do is just put on like fifteen

721
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 1: or twenty minutes at the beginning of that. That was a

722
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: little more free about stuff we wanted to talk about.

723
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 1: That's cool and that's fun, but it really didn't scratch

724
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,720
Speaker 1: the itch. And so we just started doing a podcast,

725
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: a second podcast in complete podcast form. And if you're

726
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 1: listening to this, you probably know that because this is

727
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: a podcast, I would assume that nobody listens to this

728
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: that doesn't listen to the Bobby Bone Show. I would

729
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 1: assume it's a very small audience. If any that only

730
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 1: know me from this, I think this is for sure

731
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: a tributary off the Bobby Bone Show. Ocean, a river, whatever,

732
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: a small stream of water coming off a bigger audit

733
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 1: of water. And so we started every day doing the

734
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: you know, forty five to an hour, fifteen minute extra podcast,

735
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: don't get paid any extra for it. I One, I

736
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: enjoy doing it. Two, I want you guys to feel

737
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: like you're getting a substantial amount of content from us

738
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: each day. And three sometimes it only happens like once

739
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: every month and a half or so, something really great

740
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 1: will happen in that and I'll go like, oh, let's

741
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: save that and put it in the show and kind

742
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: of chop it up a little bit because it's got

743
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 1: to be time time restraints. So we have worked hard

744
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: on doing that. Another thing that we do that I'm

745
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 1: proud of is that when we go on vacation, for

746
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 1: the most part, we just we leave new shows. I

747
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:52,399
Speaker 1: hate reruns. You got to know. I hate reruns more

748
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: than anything because I am a consumer and I hate

749
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: hearing reruns. Or I hate when my favorite podcasts go

750
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,720
Speaker 1: off and I have nothing because I definitely have my schedule.

751
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have a schedule on

752
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: when you listen to things. When you plan to listen

753
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: to things, you probably do. You're probably like me and

754
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:11,800
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, it's Thursday morning my Bone show, or

755
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: for me, it's like Thursday afternoon, I'm gonna listen to

756
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 1: my podcast with PFT. I have it all every day.

757
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: I know, crazy to think I would have something to

758
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 1: scheduled every single day, but I do that, and I

759
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: want you guys to have that with us. I think

760
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 1: for me it's been a bit difficult, and I don't

761
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,359
Speaker 1: want to say mister company guy, but I'm kind of that,

762
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: like I'm happy with the company I work with. I

763
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 1: think IET Radio is an awesome company for me for

764
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 1: many reasons. And the media space is getting more difficult.

765
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: It's getting extremely saturated. It is harder for anybody to

766
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: make money. And at this point right now, and again

767
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: this is a very fluid thing. At this point right now,

768
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: our radio show financially is one of the top in

769
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: the country now regardless of where ratings are, because we

770
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: don't have a single rating. We're in like all these cities,

771
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 1: and so it's like Greensboro is doing great, Fresno it's

772
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 1: on fire. It's terrible. I'm just picking two places random.

773
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: So I can't control that because the next month Fresno

774
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: is doing great. Now Vegas is on fire. I can't

775
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: control that. There are a lot of things out of

776
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: my control, Like at times there are local stations that

777
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 1: we'll just go dead air and that hurts us in

778
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: that market for sure, with people listening. But there's the

779
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: thing I can do about it, because I don't even

780
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 1: know about it. So that's what I'm happy when you

781
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 1: guys DM me and you're like, we're off there here,

782
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,320
Speaker 1: because I can screenshot that and send it to like

783
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: a local producer. But our company I am fortunate to

784
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 1: work for, and I think right now they're fortunate for

785
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 1: me to have me because I do a lot other

786
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: than the show for the sake of being a good

787
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: company guy. I never really wanted to do twenty five whistles,

788
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 1: especially at the beginning. I like doing it now because

789
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: we've kind of we have a like a rhythm to

790
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: it and so and it's not all sports now. I

791
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: quite know what I wanted to do at the beginning.

792
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: So a little backstory. I used to do a show

793
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,439
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio with Andy Rotick, a national show

794
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,319
Speaker 1: on the weekends, and so we would do that show

795
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,359
Speaker 1: then he and he was playing tennis at the time.

796
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: He'd be all over the world. I would do the

797
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 1: show from Austin, he would do the show from wherever, London, Tallahassee, wherever.

798
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: And so he then was like, ah, I'm done. I

799
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: got too much crap to do, like played tennis worldwide

800
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: and I was like, I get it. So I did

801
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,920
Speaker 1: the show by myself for a while and it was me,

802
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 1: and then I had a bunch of like people that

803
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: helped us, like what's the work good word probably not

804
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: a good word, psychicks, But I had like everybody like

805
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 1: Likench Fox was a psychic on the show. So all

806
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: these people that were doing the show with me, it

807
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: was me and that was fun. And then I was like,

808
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 1: I'm out. I think I'm good. I was touring then

809
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 1: because I was having to go to all these stations

810
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 1: on the weekend and do the Fox Sports Show from

811
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: these different towns that I was touring in. So i'd

812
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: do that in the daytime, then I would go and

813
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: then do a sound check and then tour at night.

814
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: I was exhausted and I was like, man, I'm just

815
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 1: going to tour, and so I stopped doing the show.

816
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: And this is when DraftKings first started and they called

817
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 1: and they were like, hey, we want you to come

818
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 1: and come back to sports, Like we liked what you

819
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 1: did on Fox Sports Radio. When want you to come

820
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: back to do five days a week and I'm like,

821
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Guys, like this show is just

822
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: starting to take off here in Nashville, and I was like,

823
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: I'm good on sports, like love it, but I'm gonna

824
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 1: focus on just touring on the weekends. And because I

825
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 1: was doing a lot of raging idiots, Eddie and I

826
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: were and on the weekday is a Bybone show. And

827
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: so they're like, okay, we will give you a lot

828
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: of money. And I was like, that's okay. I already

829
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: make a lot of money. I'm not money driven. And

830
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: they're like, it's a lot of money. And the company

831
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 1: came to me and said, hey, you'd make us a

832
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: lot of money. The company they want a relationship with

833
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: somebody who can do sports but doesn't talk just to

834
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 1: sports people. And like, I can't do five days a week,

835
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,879
Speaker 1: and they said, would you do four days a week?

836
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: I can't do four days a week. I can't do

837
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 1: a good product of four days a week. Would you

838
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:00,839
Speaker 1: do three? So it initially started one day a week.

839
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: It's a two now, but I said, okay, I can

840
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 1: do one day a week and we can video the

841
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: show and we'll do the show. We call it twenty

842
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 1: five Whistles. Because I was only doing one season of

843
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 1: twenty five episodes and we blew a whistle th int

844
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,800
Speaker 1: of every episode and we're doing twenty five whistles and

845
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: we're out. That was the entire concept of the show,

846
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: twenty five whistles, and we're done with the show. And

847
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 1: so we did season one and they invested heavily into

848
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: the company and into me and into us, and the

849
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: company was like, this is awesome, thank you, And I'm like,

850
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:30,720
Speaker 1: all right, gon to wrap it up. Thank you everybody.

851
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: And they're like, no, no, no, no, we'll give you more money,

852
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: and I'm like, it's not even about the money. I

853
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: just want to make sure what I can do is

854
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:43,240
Speaker 1: like the product is good, and they like, do another season,

855
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: and we thought about changing the name of the show.

856
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:49,359
Speaker 1: We didn't. And also, if I'm being completely honest, it

857
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 1: was awesome to me to be able to get guys

858
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: like Eddie and Kevin and Mike d extra money. Like

859
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,319
Speaker 1: that's the motivator at that point, because the money they

860
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: were giving me wasn't changing my life. But I was like,

861
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm having fun doing it, and the company's happy because

862
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 1: it's making them money where they're max out in a

863
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 1: lot of other ways with me and my guy's getting paid. Awesome, boom,

864
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: let's go keep going. So I'm doing that. So I'm

865
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:16,280
Speaker 1: doing the Bobbycast, which I really at the time enjoyed

866
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: doing because it was like bringing an unknown songwriter that

867
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: was a straight passion play for us, not the Christian

868
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: play which I did. Go to that Spring Lake church camp,

869
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 1: go up to the passion play. Watch that boom been there,

870
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,399
Speaker 1: got the T shirt, But it was a passion play

871
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 1: and that I was just doing it because I was

872
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 1: so interested in either the creativity, the behind the scenes

873
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:46,279
Speaker 1: that went into these artists, like that of the artist

874
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: was kind of talking about the things that they didn't

875
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 1: talk about outwardly as much because people didn't care about

876
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: him as much I did. I had an interest in it.

877
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: That was fun for me because like our first guests everywhere,

878
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:03,359
Speaker 1: like Ryan Hurd and Caitlin Smith and then it was songwriters.

879
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: It's super exciting with really no intention of that thing

880
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: ever growing to what it is now. It's a really

881
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 1: strong podcast now by itself, I mean, it's this one.

882
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: What am I talking about? It's but yes, you get it.

883
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm talking about it like it's not what you're listening to.

884
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,399
Speaker 1: So that one was big, and that was a couple

885
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 1: hours a week because it was an hour plus to

886
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 1: do it and to prep for it. And then it

887
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: was a radio show. And then I was doing Whistles

888
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: twice a week. And then Yellowstone called and they were like,

889
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 1: we just this podcast, and I'm like, I don't want want

890
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: to do Yellowstone podcast. I love Yellowstone the show, but

891
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to do a podcast,

892
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: and the company's like it would really help us. I

893
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 1: didn't make much money from the Yellowstone podcast, but it

894
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,399
Speaker 1: was getting like two thousand streams before we took it over.

895
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 1: By the time we were done with it was getting

896
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: like eighty thousand an episode, and they were still like

897
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:01,480
Speaker 1: really mean to us. So that's why I dropped out

898
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 1: of that one. But I had that and then the

899
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 1: NFL called in. The NFL's like, hey, will you do

900
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,280
Speaker 1: a podcast for us. Now it's a bit like soccer

901
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 1: because I didn't work for the NFL, but the NFL

902
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 1: could pay iHeartRadio and get me on loan, which is

903
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: basically kind of what happened. And they pay me and

904
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 1: they let me go hire whatever co host I could hire,

905
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 1: and that was Matt Castle, who played quarterback for the Patriots,

906
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 1: and so the company's making money off that. I am too,

907
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:37,520
Speaker 1: not a ton But it's boy Bone Show Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. There,

908
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: it's a Friday. It's on Monday, twenty five Whistles after

909
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: Bibybone Show on Tuesday. It's lots to say with Matt Castle.

910
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 1: On Wednesday, it's Bobbycast on Thursday. It's the twenty five

911
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 1: Whistles on Friday. So it stretches, it stretches me. And

912
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 1: I used to feel guilty about thinking that and saying

913
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: that because my stepdad worked at the mill warehouser shut down.

914
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 1: Mount Pine isn't a million anymore. But it all ends

915
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: up with the energy that you're putting out, and man,

916
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 1: it's a lot of energy. I'm not complaining, but there

917
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: are times where I just have no And it's also

918
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 1: why I hate myself, because it's a whole lot of

919
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 1: me and my opinions. And if it's not me talking

920
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 1: about me, it's me talking about how I feel about things.

921
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 1: And imagine having to talk at this level amplified for

922
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 1: hours and hours every single day. You would hate yourself too.

923
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 1: You'd hate your voice you'd say so much dumb stuff

924
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 1: that you don't want to watch yourself. You'd start seeing

925
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: clips of yourself on things and being like, I hate me.

926
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 1: It would make you question everything that you do, why

927
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:36,279
Speaker 1: you do it, how come you don't get better. That's

928
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: the constant spin that I'm in. And I've planned to

929
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,959
Speaker 1: just two fifteen minutes on this, I've now done fifty minutes.

930
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 1: So if you're in the fifty minute Club, as always,

931
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 1: thank you. I don't know how many people are going

932
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:52,360
Speaker 1: to get to this because it's just me talking. But

933
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 1: if you don't mind sending me a DM and say, hey,

934
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: fifty minute club, just heard the episode except to what

935
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,280
Speaker 1: I wean second week in September. Just heard that bobcast.

936
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 1: That would make me feel good. You don't have to,

937
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 1: but that would be super cool if you had to,

938
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:05,880
Speaker 1: mister Boby Bill and send me a DM fifty minute

939
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,120
Speaker 1: Club second week of September. That way, I know you

940
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,920
Speaker 1: were listening to this and anything that irritated to you

941
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: or it was good from this. But that's why I

942
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 1: think I'm a company guy. That's why I do all

943
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: these shows, because I want to be an asset to

944
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,880
Speaker 1: the company. Because these companies are having to make very

945
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 1: difficult decisions all the time about value and not human value,

946
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: but just looking at lines like is this person worth it?

947
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 1: We're paying them a lot of money, and yeah, they're

948
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 1: making that money now, but we want to get another

949
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: contract with them because looking at the trajectory of meat

950
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 1: bad blah blah. I don't want to be that person,

951
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: like I'm super sensitive about security.

952
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 2: Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor,

953
00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 2: and we're back on the Bobby cast.

954
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 1: I do turn a lot of stuff down. I say

955
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 1: a lot, I mean a decent amount of stuff down.

956
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: I got a company, it's not a company. My book

957
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 1: publishers offered me another book deal, definitely a half million

958
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 1: dollars short another book, and I'm not going to do

959
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 1: it because I don't feel like I can do it

960
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: and it be good and you guys like it and

961
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 1: then me promoted and not feel a bit of guilt

962
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: about promoting something that isn't good. So I'm not doing

963
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: it and it will probably never be offered to me

964
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 1: again at that level, I think. And that's much more

965
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 1: significant money than the other books, especially when I was

966
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 1: offered upfront, like because they give you a guarantee, like

967
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,279
Speaker 1: an advance. I've never been offered that much before. But

968
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 1: I've just kept saying no, and I'm not I'm not

969
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: saying no to have them keep pursuing me. I'm just

970
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 1: saying no. So well, I'm just saying no because I

971
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: don't think I have it in me. I don't think

972
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: I have a good book in me right now. I

973
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:53,839
Speaker 1: don't know what I would write about that I've written

974
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 1: about already because forever, or at least first book and

975
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 1: a lot of the show, the brand and was, hey,

976
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: I didn't come from anything, and now I'm trying to

977
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 1: make it. And I grew up very poor, and that resonated.

978
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 1: You go to research the research that we get, it's like,

979
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:10,759
Speaker 1: do more of that, do more of that? And I'm like,

980
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:11,880
Speaker 1: oh my god, I can't do any more of that.

981
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 1: Like I hate me talking about it all the time,

982
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: and I really don't talk about it as much anymore.

983
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 1: It does come up some because it's just who I'll

984
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: always be. That's what I relate to, Like people from

985
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:23,880
Speaker 1: small towns that grow up with a lot of resources,

986
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,479
Speaker 1: Like that's what my heart goes to. Still. That's because

987
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 1: I understand it, but I definitely don't do it as

988
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 1: much as I used to, even though, like I would

989
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: literally have bosses go like, hey, you need to talk

990
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 1: about you being poor more because it's all the new

991
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 1: listeners that ran. But it's like I'm entertaining the crap

992
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:38,839
Speaker 1: out of the listeners that have veen here the whole

993
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: time that I have to hear me go wa wa way,

994
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 1: and then I want to reset that by letting everybody know, hey,

995
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 1: I'm not poor anymore, like I made it kind of

996
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 1: rich now, and I only do that to kind of

997
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:51,880
Speaker 1: reset the fact that I'm like, I don't want to

998
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:53,360
Speaker 1: be the post. And then I start to get annoyed

999
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,279
Speaker 1: that I do that, and I think the one theme

1000
00:50:56,360 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: is that I just am aload annoyed with myself. But yeah,

1001
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 1: I know. We'd set a meetings in the company would

1002
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: go like you need to really focus on how poor

1003
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 1: you are growing up, and I'd be like, hey, listen,

1004
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 1: nobody gets it more than I do. Nobody has to

1005
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:14,880
Speaker 1: use that as their brand, even honestly, I say extremely honest,

1006
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,720
Speaker 1: honestly and vulnerably as I have because it is all true.

1007
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 1: I said it. Man, I can only do it so

1008
00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: much and they'd be like, yeah, but this, if you

1009
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: look here at this number in this quadrant, this is

1010
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: what does I'm like, I can I understand why you're

1011
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,520
Speaker 1: saying this, and I understand that it does appeal to

1012
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 1: people who haven't listened a whole lot and don't know

1013
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 1: my whole story. But there are some people that I'm

1014
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,560
Speaker 1: lucky enough know my whole story, and they roll their

1015
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 1: eyes because I'm rolling my eyes sometimes not because any

1016
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 1: of it's a lie, but because like, we get it, dude.

1017
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:54,879
Speaker 1: So if you ever hear that and you're like, dude,

1018
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 1: here we go again, just know then internally I'm doing

1019
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 1: the same thing. For the most part, there are times

1020
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: where it really does. I feel like it is effective

1021
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:05,800
Speaker 1: and either telling a story, a version of a story,

1022
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 1: a perspective from a story, but I don't do it

1023
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: as much just to get it out there where it

1024
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: used to be, Hey, you need to reset yourself every

1025
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: two days and do a segment about how you grew

1026
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 1: up specifically so you can mention that so the new

1027
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,319
Speaker 1: people know that. I don't do that anymore. And at

1028
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,759
Speaker 1: times I've tried to reset up by doing the opposite,

1029
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 1: and even though I don't like that, either. So here

1030
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: we are over fifty minutes in, just planning to come

1031
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: down here for fifteen minutes and talk about the dogs

1032
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:42,160
Speaker 1: and what we're going through with the dogs, and how

1033
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:47,400
Speaker 1: lucky I am that the fat one is healthy and

1034
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 1: the skinny one is safe. And I'm not a big

1035
00:52:53,239 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: gratitude journal guy, but if I'm always surrounding myself with

1036
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:07,760
Speaker 1: reasons things suck, I'm gonna feel generally like everything sucks

1037
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:14,320
Speaker 1: because I never thought much of the corny I'm just

1038
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 1: gonna write everything I'm thankful for. It ain't corny. I

1039
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 1: get it now because some people, myself included, we're naturally

1040
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: down on ourselves, and if we don't meet it with

1041
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 1: the positive things in our life, that wave will destroy us.

1042
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: Because I feel it in the past few months destroying me.

1043
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,879
Speaker 1: And so in the morning, I'm that guy. Not every day.

1044
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,200
Speaker 1: I try to make it every day. Sometimes I don't

1045
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,839
Speaker 1: have time. But I got this stupid little leather bound

1046
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 1: book with a code on it because I don't want

1047
00:53:56,400 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 1: anybody get into my diary. And I types code in

1048
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:05,320
Speaker 1: and I open it up and I write three or

1049
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 1: four things that I'm thankful for, AKA that I have

1050
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: gratitude for and it don't feel like it affects me,

1051
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 1: but I know it does because I'm constantly swimming in

1052
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 1: negativity within myself. For the most part. It's not even

1053
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 1: a comments thing that happens some but it's mostly within myself.

1054
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 1: There is nothing anyone can say to me that is

1055
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:33,319
Speaker 1: a tenth as mean as the things that I say

1056
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 1: to myself. And so what I've tried to do is

1057
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 1: meet that I've tried to meet that with I'm gonna

1058
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:45,839
Speaker 1: say it gratitude. And what that is for me is

1059
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 1: just going You have so much exposure to negativity, a

1060
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,319
Speaker 1: lot of it provided by yourself, that we have to

1061
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: give exposure to positivity as well, or it's going to

1062
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:04,600
Speaker 1: be a miserable life. So that is what I encourage you,

1063
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:10,840
Speaker 1: my friend, who maybe I've never met, but who understands

1064
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 1: me on a level that is extremely intimate, because you

1065
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 1: just listen to me talk for fifty five minutes. I

1066
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 1: have no notes in front of me. That was all

1067
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 1: from my head. I encourage you to find something every

1068
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: day that you're thankful for, not to be hokey or corny.

1069
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 1: But if you're being mean to yourself, it's not fair.

1070
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: It's not fair. To yourself. I'm not saying you have

1071
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:50,080
Speaker 1: to be ten pages a day, write poems, eat flowers.

1072
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: I'm just saying meet the negativity and at least be even.

1073
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 1: That's where I try to get even. If I can

1074
00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 1: get even, that's a massive win for me. So I

1075
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:04,880
Speaker 1: think that's how we'll end this. Go get yourself even,

1076
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 1: and if you're already out of it, out of the whole, great,

1077
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:11,680
Speaker 1: that's awesome. I don't think that little talk was for you.

1078
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 1: God didn't plan that talk, didn't even plan to go there.

1079
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,680
Speaker 1: I think that talk was for me, the last part

1080
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 1: of this, and for people that aren't even. And we

1081
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 1: beat ourselves up so much because of what we're not

1082
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:28,279
Speaker 1: doing right. We're overly accountable, meaning we're accountable to things

1083
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't even have to be accountable for. We are so

1084
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 1: sensitive to our own imperfections and flaws that we don't

1085
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:43,360
Speaker 1: see the good things about us. That's what I'm talking

1086
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 1: to right there, talking to me. So if you guys

1087
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:53,160
Speaker 1: have a good rest of the day. We just did

1088
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 1: over fifty minutes and I'll be talking to you soon

1089
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 1: the next time. I plan to walk down here and

1090
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 1: do fifteen minutes and ended up doing an hour orto

1091
00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,319
Speaker 1: a microphone. It's gotten completely dark while I was doing this.

1092
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:04,799
Speaker 1: My wife even walked down to the window because I'm

1093
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: down in the studio and she was like okay. I

1094
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, just doing done, little chat. Thank you. Everybody,

1095
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,799
Speaker 1: send me a DM if you don't mind, and we'll

1096
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,960
Speaker 1: talk again soon. Bye.

1097
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,600
Speaker 3: Thanks for listening to a Bobby Cast production
