Speaker 1: the best time talking with today's guest, Caitlin Brown, the

Speaker 1: to look at it takes your breath away, and she's
Speaker 1: even more stunning to talk to. Her heart is so amazing.
Speaker 1: She and Kine met through music. Her manager introduced her
Speaker 1: to Caine because she was looking for a love interest
Speaker 1: in her music video, and lo and behold, Mr Brown
Speaker 1: was the chosen one. It was so fun getting to
Speaker 1: hear their love story and hear about their life on
Speaker 1: the road, their dance parties because if you watch their Instagram,
Speaker 1: they have some incredible dance bottles that she puts up,
Speaker 1: which I live for, and just to hear all about
Speaker 1: their lives, So get excited for Caitlin. Before we hop
Speaker 1: into the interview, I want to talk to you about
Speaker 1: a meal delivery service that is changing my life. I
Speaker 1: do not love to cook, but I love to eat
Speaker 1: very healthy, home cooked meals. Home Chef is changing my world.

Speaker 1: so easy to see why. If they offer up to
Speaker 1: twenty six different delicious meal options each week, from steak

Speaker 1: You can have a home cooked meal within thirty minutes.
Speaker 1: I love Home Chef. I use it all the time.
Speaker 1: It has made cooking fun for me. Before I would
Speaker 1: go to the grocery store and get stressed out because
Speaker 1: I would be overwhelmed, and then I would end up
Speaker 1: getting all these random ingredients and cooking something super bland
Speaker 1: at home that Michael hated. So now I feel like
Speaker 1: I'm just winning it life and I am so thankful
Speaker 1: for home Chef. With all options out there, it's hard
Speaker 1: to decide which one to pick, but I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: Home Chef is the way to go. They take all
Speaker 1: the stress and guilt out of cooking. Yes, guilt I
Speaker 1: used to feel guilty because I felt like I was
Speaker 1: failing in the kitchen, and they make me feel like

Speaker 1: I with Caitlin Brown. Hey, how do you like your
Speaker 1: new last name? You know, it took a second to
Speaker 1: get used to it, it did it? Yeah, Because when
Speaker 1: I went to the store and stuff and I would
Speaker 1: like they would be like, okay, in your last name,
Speaker 1: I would still say my last name. What was your
Speaker 1: last name? It was Kraft, like the macaroni and cheese. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And so then I was like, oh, it's it's Brown actually,
Speaker 1: never mind Caitlin Brown. Yeah. Well, so you're fresh off
Speaker 1: the newly wed train, like fresh out like a month ago. Okay,
Speaker 1: talk to me about what's been going on in this
Speaker 1: month of marriage. Do you feel different? Do you feel
Speaker 1: like a new woman? How is the wedding out. The
Speaker 1: wedding was amazing, although we're still drinking chance to celebrate it.
Speaker 1: Yes we are. Cheers. Here's to your lovely name. Isn't
Speaker 1: nuptials nuptials? I have no idea of wedding. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't feel like any different. I really don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's fun and it's exciting, but we lived
Speaker 1: together before and we're doing the same thing. I actually
Speaker 1: woke up the next day after the wedding and was like,
Speaker 1: I'm glad that's over. There was a lot of stress.
Speaker 1: What was the most stressful part of it? I think
Speaker 1: it was like, for a year and a half, all
Speaker 1: we're engaged, the only thing people would know to talk
Speaker 1: to me about was so, how's the wedding? And I
Speaker 1: was like, one more person asked me about the wedding
Speaker 1: or my dress or anything about it. I'm like, I
Speaker 1: can't handle it that. I feel like my brother in
Speaker 1: law says that people stayed the obvious, and everyone, especially
Speaker 1: like someone like you, if you're walking down an interview
Speaker 1: line or if you see someone you haven't seen very often,
Speaker 1: they're going to stay the first thing they can think of,
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, my gosh, you're so over it,
Speaker 1: like so over it. It's like as soon as you
Speaker 1: get married, get ready. Now it's when are you having babies?
Speaker 1: That's up next. Those are our dogs right now. But
Speaker 1: after you had your first baby that it's like when
Speaker 1: are you going to have Anotherwise, it's like always just
Speaker 1: the next thing, I know, And right now I'm just
Speaker 1: like completely content. Isn't that wonderful? It really is. I'm
Speaker 1: just like, are you letting ourself enjoying it? Yeah? Yeah
Speaker 1: I am. I got like a lot of stuff done
Speaker 1: with the new house, and I'm like liking traveling and
Speaker 1: having to worry about it. Was it stressful to travel
Speaker 1: when you were doing the wedding? My mom? Thank god
Speaker 1: for my mom. Oh my god. If it wasn't for
Speaker 1: my mom, it would have not been like that, like
Speaker 1: at all. She did so much. Um So, I know,
Speaker 1: like a lot of girls are like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm so stressed, like this is awful. I was like
Speaker 1: I don't care. Like I was like, yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I told him exactly what I wanted it to feel like.
Speaker 1: I'm not like super girly, so I was like I
Speaker 1: wanted to feel woodsy, like enchanted, forest, and my bridesmaid's
Speaker 1: dresses were like a sage green, like an army green,
Speaker 1: and I kind of was just like, come with me,
Speaker 1: come to me with questions of like two options, and
Speaker 1: I'll just say yes or now smart yes. I didn't
Speaker 1: want to worry about it. I didn't care you and
Speaker 1: you probably enjoyed the process so much more I did.
Speaker 1: It really wasn't that bad. So tell me how you
Speaker 1: felt though, when it was like the wedding days happening
Speaker 1: and like all this work's coming together. You are now
Speaker 1: on the dress, the guests are showing up, You're about
Speaker 1: to walk down the aisle, Like what are you feeling
Speaker 1: in that moment? But it's about to happen, about to
Speaker 1: throw up? Like I was so weirdly calm like all day.
Speaker 1: And then I did my first look with my dad.
Speaker 1: You did yeah, oh stop, it was very emotional. Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh. We cried. My dad is like the funniest
Speaker 1: human on earth. He is and so like everything, Like
Speaker 1: he can take a funeral and make some kind of
Speaker 1: joke about it, and I appreciate that to always find yes.
Speaker 1: So he's not going to let anything right on his parade,
Speaker 1: no matter what he's going to enjoy life. Right, It's
Speaker 1: always like some kind of funny joke. Some people might
Speaker 1: not like that, but I love that. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I like people that make light of a heavy situation too.
Speaker 1: We don't want to go swimming and just live in
Speaker 1: the bottom of those feelings. Let's figure out how we
Speaker 1: can find joy again. Right, Yes, So we did our
Speaker 1: first look and then that was like, no, he didn't correct,
Speaker 1: but I could tell he got like red in his
Speaker 1: face and he saw me, and I was like, do it,
Speaker 1: do it, let it to your But then he said
Speaker 1: some joke. Okay, that moment was over real, real, vast.
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. So I think the most like scary
Speaker 1: moment was when we were in the van and we
Speaker 1: were waiting to walk down the aisle, just me and
Speaker 1: my dad, and I was watching everyone walk in and
Speaker 1: sit down, and I was like, what, I will never
Speaker 1: do this again. This is like the most awful feeling,
Speaker 1: like the pressure. It was so much pressure. It's just
Speaker 1: even though you love your husband more than anything in
Speaker 1: your world, because in the world, like I remember this,
Speaker 1: when I was marrying Michael, like more than anything, I
Speaker 1: wanted to marry him but it's just that huge, huge
Speaker 1: thing that's happening, and like you said, you'll never do
Speaker 1: it again. You are now tied to this one person
Speaker 1: for the rest of your life, which is awesome, but
Speaker 1: it's still huge. It's just a huge moment. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I wasn't nervous or anything. I was like, I just
Speaker 1: want to marry Kane. All this extra stuff going on
Speaker 1: right now is like stressing me out. All the people
Speaker 1: there that my entertainment. You want to make sure they're
Speaker 1: having a good time. I couldn't even get a good
Speaker 1: buzz at my wedding. Girl ever, I'm I trying to
Speaker 1: take a sip of something. Someone's like, come take a picture,
Speaker 1: and I'll be like, well, put my champagne back down.
Speaker 1: Like I can't even get a buzz at my own wedding.
Speaker 1: What is this? What is this? Did y'all dance though?
Speaker 1: Because you and Kane's Instagram dance videos I live for.
Speaker 1: By the way, I hope one's coming up for the holidays?
Speaker 1: Are you preparing well out? Who knows. When we spend
Speaker 1: too much time at our house, we don't know what
Speaker 1: to do with ourselves, so we usually end up like
Speaker 1: making up some choreography or something, which I'm grateful for
Speaker 1: because I'm like, literally when it happens, I'm like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, there dance. Like the first time I thought,
Speaker 1: I was like, this is dancing happening, and then it's
Speaker 1: good dancing, and then you're like core and seat together
Speaker 1: and you're like ya moves, and I'm like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: if Michael and I put all these up, your people
Speaker 1: would die. No, I can't dance, came can No, you
Speaker 1: can dance. No, you can dance his ass off. So
Speaker 1: does he teach you or do you teach him? Or
Speaker 1: do y'all his improvised Yeah. I mean like we have
Speaker 1: two different styles of dancing. I'm more of like the
Speaker 1: white girl booty popping, like yeah, and he's just like cool,
Speaker 1: like he can moonwalk and like do cool stuff. And
Speaker 1: I'm just like, god, you're so cool. So often fair
Speaker 1: dance often, So you often dance just like for fun,
Speaker 1: like it throughout the house, like when you're home, just
Speaker 1: the two y'all, and it's like you're chilling, like yeah,
Speaker 1: you sounds so cheesy to say out, but we do.
Speaker 1: I mean like it's just like we're making fun of
Speaker 1: each other and like we always have music on or something,
Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean there's always like a breakout, dance
Speaker 1: move happening or dance battle. I think that's a way
Speaker 1: that's a great tip to happiness in marriage. Yeah. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you're dancing with each other, you're always gonna have fun. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's fun. We're like best friends. So how
Speaker 1: awesome is that? I know, if you're built in best
Speaker 1: friend Now I'm blessed. I am. Was it love at
Speaker 1: first sight? Because okay, because you were telling me you
Speaker 1: guys met, because you had a manager. You're kicking booty,
Speaker 1: You're an artist in a badass like hands down on
Speaker 1: top of it, dropped it gorgeous. One of the prettiest
Speaker 1: people I've ever seen. So you are you are no, no,
Speaker 1: no no. So you're doing your own thing, rocking your
Speaker 1: own world. Tell me what's going on before you just
Speaker 1: get hit by the love train. Because then you did it,
Speaker 1: you turn and went on a totally different route, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I kind of like it all kind of
Speaker 1: fell into place, like it's just, Uh, I was doing
Speaker 1: my own thing, and where were you living? Uh? This time,
Speaker 1: I was living in Orlando, so I was down there
Speaker 1: doing my thing. And where are you from? Philadelphia? Okay?
Speaker 1: Did you grow up in the woods? You just love
Speaker 1: the woods? Yeah, okay, yeah completely, like in the woods.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well it's we're not in the city. We're
Speaker 1: like thirty like how we are right here towards Nashville. Okay,
Speaker 1: a little outside of town. So my parents had a
Speaker 1: house in the woods and we had like dirt bikes,
Speaker 1: and I have all brothers, and you're one of those
Speaker 1: awesome girls, so you you know, how to be your
Speaker 1: own guys, like you would just hanging out with guys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I get it, just because like my brothers, like they
Speaker 1: were rough with me, Like you know, I just had
Speaker 1: to like suck it up because you wanted to hang
Speaker 1: out with them, So in order to hang out, you
Speaker 1: just had to deal with the behavior. Yeah. I thought
Speaker 1: they were cool, so I just wanted to be their friend.
Speaker 1: And they really didn't become my friend until I got
Speaker 1: older and they started thinking my friends were hot. That's
Speaker 1: when they wanted to hang out with me. So I
Speaker 1: was always like the younger sister until my friends grew up.
Speaker 1: And then and now my one brother is marrying my roommate,
Speaker 1: one of my best friends You're like, you're welcome. You're welcome.
Speaker 1: You're welcome brother and friend, but mainly brother. You're welcome.
Speaker 1: You're in the wedding, I'm the maid of honor as
Speaker 1: you should be. It's so cool. I'm so excited. And
Speaker 1: now you get built in best friend for your sister exactly,
Speaker 1: Like you don't have to worry about your sister in
Speaker 1: law being anything other than your best friend. And now
Speaker 1: you get to hang out legit as family. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: she has no choice other than to be my best
Speaker 1: friend the rest of my life. Now great? Really well yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: life's good right now. I can't complain. So you grew
Speaker 1: up in the woods, and then how did you get
Speaker 1: to Orlando? Um? Well I was. I was singing and
Speaker 1: doing like auditions and everything, and then I end up
Speaker 1: getting signed by my manager and his place was in Orlando.
Speaker 1: So he he manages justin Timber like still today, but
Speaker 1: he would like did all the boy bands like in
Speaker 1: Sync and Brittany during that time. So it was in
Speaker 1: Orlando because they were all down there. Mickey Mouse Club
Speaker 1: and a lot of them were doing shows at the
Speaker 1: Disney Parks. So that's how that got started. So everyone's
Speaker 1: like Orlando. That's so random. I know, I kind of
Speaker 1: thought so too, But then I was going, well, you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: that is where all the boy bands were, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so all that started. So he kind of made like
Speaker 1: a compound. Well that's what it's called in Orlando, and
Speaker 1: I lived there by myself, kind of scared. I don't
Speaker 1: know how I did it looking back, but I think
Speaker 1: I was just I was eighteen, and any of the
Speaker 1: people there, like any of the other now, no other
Speaker 1: like that. Compound had been there since like the nineties,
Speaker 1: the early nights, so like everyone that like developed their's
Speaker 1: rehearsal rooms and studios. It's insane, Like if you ever
Speaker 1: get a chance to check it out, I guess Johnny
Speaker 1: writes compound, that's my manager's name. And then it was
Speaker 1: just like he didn't live there anything, but it was
Speaker 1: like this huge house. It would be like an art
Speaker 1: a stream, like there's rehearsal studio, rehearsal rooms, studios. Um,
Speaker 1: it was kind of like a camp, like we had
Speaker 1: like all these beds for like if different bands came
Speaker 1: in and needed to like use the rehearsal rooms for
Speaker 1: a week. It was really cool. Um, So I lived
Speaker 1: there for like years and how was it you said
Speaker 1: this huge compound to yourself. Basically, basically it was. It
Speaker 1: was really cool, but at the same time, I was
Speaker 1: really lonely. It was really like, like my twenty one birthday,
Speaker 1: I did not go out and like party with anyone
Speaker 1: my age. Not saying I didn't have fun. Like everyone
Speaker 1: I worked with became family, but everyone I worked with
Speaker 1: for like parents to me totally. So, um, I feel
Speaker 1: like I missed out because I left college. I was like,
Speaker 1: you know, I went to Westchestern University up in Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: and then as soon as I got the opportunity, I
Speaker 1: was like, by totallyn't want to be here anyway. I
Speaker 1: wanted to do music. So I moved to Orlando and
Speaker 1: I was down there for a few years. And then
Speaker 1: I was working with this producer out of Atlanta and
Speaker 1: came I us was to We didn't know each other,
Speaker 1: and then um, I was shooting a music video and
Speaker 1: the guy that they hired to be like the love
Speaker 1: interest in the video. I was like, he's not my type.
Speaker 1: He's huge, Like he was like this big bodybuilder and
Speaker 1: I was like eighteen years old. I was like, no,
Speaker 1: this does not make sense. And so the producer of
Speaker 1: the song was like, I know this kid that would
Speaker 1: be perfect. You guys are like the same age shop
Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, show me a picture and
Speaker 1: I was like yeah, and I was like, tell him
Speaker 1: if he could come down. So he called Kane No Way,
Speaker 1: never knew came he was your love interest in your
Speaker 1: music video. So we called him and he was like sure,
Speaker 1: when's the video and we're like tomorrow. He's he He
Speaker 1: had his first sold out show in like North or
Speaker 1: South Carolina. So we never met until like almost a
Speaker 1: year later when he had a show in Florida and
Speaker 1: I was with that same producer and he invited me
Speaker 1: to go to the show and then came. Didn't talk
Speaker 1: to me. I didn't talked to him like the whole time.
Speaker 1: We were like we were both very shy. So you
Speaker 1: guys were just like hi, bye. Yeah. I was like Hi,

Speaker 1: with his boys, Okay, bye, I'm going to the bar.
Speaker 1: You're super cute. Totally would have made out with my
Speaker 1: music video, but bye yeah. I was like, remember last
Speaker 1: year when I wanted you to be in my video

Speaker 1: got my number. Yeah, and he thank god for Instagram, right,
Speaker 1: thank god he messaged you. So he s he slid
Speaker 1: in there when he saw you. He knew it. He said,
Speaker 1: I gotta hit her up on the ground. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: So I was like, yes, score, I thought he was
Speaker 1: so cute, just keep chatting. Well no, I mean, I
Speaker 1: would have never guessed it was the same guy because
Speaker 1: his whole like demeanor change. He was like, what are
Speaker 1: you doing Wednesday? And this was Sunday. Where are you
Speaker 1: living now? I'm in Orlando, And where is he living now? Nashville?
Speaker 1: So how are you going to see him on Wednesday?
Speaker 1: That's what I thought, So I said, I said, oh,
Speaker 1: so you have a show back in Florida. He was like, no,
Speaker 1: I want to come to Nashville. And everyone I went
Speaker 1: there like, you need to go be a kid. You
Speaker 1: need to go on a date like you have been
Speaker 1: sitting here just like not being social. You have no
Speaker 1: friends down here. You need to be a kid. And
Speaker 1: I was like, screw it. Yeah, so he felt close
Speaker 1: because he had the same manager, so you know he's
Speaker 1: not a Yeah, I knew he wasn't agree if this
Speaker 1: was some random guy, of course not. But I've known
Speaker 1: of him and we've we we've talked, and you know,
Speaker 1: there was like mutual people there, so it wasn't some
Speaker 1: and you have been meaning to meet for a while
Speaker 1: so now so now it's finally happening. And um My,
Speaker 1: my management was like, you need to go, like go
Speaker 1: have fun. And um her name is Angela. She became
Speaker 1: a second mom to me. So she was like, I'm
Speaker 1: booking you the red eye out tonight. You're gonna fly
Speaker 1: up to Nashville have fun. He booked my flight there,
Speaker 1: but he never booked me a return flight because he's
Speaker 1: like you're coming and you're saying whatever. So love a
Speaker 1: man who was not afraid to put the moves down
Speaker 1: like that. Well, Kane, okay, And we had the best
Speaker 1: night in Nashville, and here I am, where'd you go?
Speaker 1: I think he went to Tutsie's. So he just gave
Speaker 1: you a Nashville like Honky talk experience. We went out
Speaker 1: with his friends and we liked his friends, and then
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, then to Bar Louie, had some good food,
Speaker 1: had some drinks, and it just felt so natural, like
Speaker 1: it was effortless, and I was like, I remember on
Speaker 1: the first date that I was like, I'm going to
Speaker 1: marry him like that. I never felt that way about
Speaker 1: anyone ever. It was weird. It was a weird feeling
Speaker 1: of that old how old are you. I'm twenty six
Speaker 1: and he's twenty five. Okay, So but yeah, you just
Speaker 1: felt different. Yeah, yeah, it was weird. It just feels
Speaker 1: like you like have known this person in your whole
Speaker 1: life and it's comfortable. That's how it felt. That's how
Speaker 1: I knew something was so different. You know. I just
Speaker 1: was like so comfortable. And I told you when I
Speaker 1: got here. I remember when Caine announced this to the
Speaker 1: world that he was dating you, because he was like, Okay, everybody,
Speaker 1: this is my girlfriend and I know you are going
Speaker 1: to embrace her and lover and like all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: after that, he was posting about you all the time,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, dang, like this is great. Yeah. We
Speaker 1: were dating a year and we kept it a secret
Speaker 1: before he posted that, Okay. So I had like an
Speaker 1: Instagram that was kind of like it's the singing stuff
Speaker 1: and everything like that, and then I felt like there
Speaker 1: was some haters happening. Well, he's one of those artists.
Speaker 1: If he's going to come out with a girlfriend, he's
Speaker 1: got to be ready to commit because his fans are
Speaker 1: die hard. They love him, and no girl getting in
Speaker 1: there unless she's probably the one. They probably accepted you
Speaker 1: because you're the wife and the chosen one. But like
Speaker 1: any other one, you know, he's serious about this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was kind of scary. It was kind of scary.
Speaker 1: I didn't have an Instagram and then because I deleted
Speaker 1: it and we were like on the d L for
Speaker 1: a year straight. And then he was like, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: tired of like hiding this and I was like, thank
Speaker 1: god too. I feel like I don't exist ever here.
Speaker 1: You're like, I'm in my and my compound with my
Speaker 1: secret boyfriend. But life is great, s s. I'm spending
Speaker 1: out pigeons. I'm alive over here. Do I even have
Speaker 1: a name? I don't know? Like that? So um so yeah,
Speaker 1: that was that, and he told the world that's awesome.
Speaker 1: So that's a drastic change. Then, Yeah, how did you
Speaker 1: How did you go from one extreme together? How did
Speaker 1: it go? Um? I think we stopped kind of caring. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the way to be you can't care. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: just kind of like fine. I kind of got to
Speaker 1: the point when I was like, if you want to
Speaker 1: hate me and you don't know me or anything about me,
Speaker 1: go ahead. You know that's said that you have that
Speaker 1: kind of hate in your heart, you know, when you
Speaker 1: don't know someone and you judge them. So it was
Speaker 1: hard in the beginning, but um, a lot of the
Speaker 1: girls are really really we're sweet. And then especially today,
Speaker 1: I feel like Kane's friends, like Kane's fans that are
Speaker 1: girls are like my friends. That's awesome. They'll be like,
Speaker 1: what makeup and with this? And I'm like, you guys
Speaker 1: are cool. Yeah, yeah, they're cool. You're probably just protective,
Speaker 1: which is great because that makes me great. Fam. I
Speaker 1: mean they're protecting their boy. But now I know he's
Speaker 1: got a good girl, and I'll settled down. It's awesome.
Speaker 1: I love that. And they were like very respectful to
Speaker 1: which I appreciate. Yeah, you know, like they love us
Speaker 1: for us, you know what I mean, not just like
Speaker 1: oh well, we have to love her. Like they make
Speaker 1: it feel okay. I feel like something's happening in country music.
Speaker 1: I interviewed Haley Hubbard before you today and we're talking
Speaker 1: about just like marriage and country music, and I feel
Speaker 1: like it is cool to be married in country music now,
Speaker 1: and I'm so grateful for that, especially like to be
Speaker 1: in it. You know, obviously there's still whatever can happen,
Speaker 1: like not everyone's going to be totally supportive, but for
Speaker 1: the most part, people love to see happy couples and
Speaker 1: it's almost like, well, dang, okay, I could maybe have
Speaker 1: that too, Like true love can exist because it's been
Speaker 1: portrayed for so long that you can't be cool in
Speaker 1: an entertainment industry and married, but you can't absolutely like
Speaker 1: and I totally feel like that with country music is
Speaker 1: like they look at as a positive thing, which it
Speaker 1: should be because it is compared to like other genres
Speaker 1: where it's kind of like, oh, it's cool like to
Speaker 1: be single and hang out with a ton of girls,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, if you did any other genre, I
Speaker 1: swear like, I'm like, but um yeah, I agree with
Speaker 1: you and he loves you, like I love how much
Speaker 1: I'll claim each other and put your love out there,
Speaker 1: because I just think people need to see love, especially
Speaker 1: like so many I guess high profile marriages or people
Speaker 1: who are in the spotlight. It usually doesn't work out
Speaker 1: or something or there's like a you know, and it's
Speaker 1: just like to see a couple he's like staying strong
Speaker 1: in their love and putting it out there and and
Speaker 1: owning it. I think that is so good for young
Speaker 1: people to see. Yeah, you know, yeah, I mean I
Speaker 1: love it. I feel like, I don't know, I feel
Speaker 1: like it's like a total positive, good energy thing for
Speaker 1: other people too, And I think it gives people hope exactly,
Speaker 1: you know, because I like, I really didn't date a
Speaker 1: lot before Kane or anything like that, but there are
Speaker 1: some scummy guys out there, you know, and he's like
Speaker 1: a genuine, really good person, like not even just to me,
Speaker 1: like just thinks he does in his daily life, for
Speaker 1: how I see the way he treats people he works with,
Speaker 1: and you know, I was like, he was in Nebraska
Speaker 1: for a show the other day and they were supposed
Speaker 1: to fly home private, but the snowstorm was so bad
Speaker 1: that they couldn't and I was like, I hadn't seen
Speaker 1: him in a week, and I was like, well, just
Speaker 1: hop on like the next commercial flying He's like, well
Speaker 1: there's only two seats, and he's like I'm not going
Speaker 1: to just leave my band. And I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: I can. I can appreciate that, you know what I mean, Like,
Speaker 1: he just has a good heart. Um, And I'm so
Speaker 1: blessed to have someone like that. Honestly, Yes, so blessed.
Speaker 1: So what is touring life life like for you? Tell
Speaker 1: me how you've adjusted to it. And because you went
Speaker 1: on tour Jason last year and now he's doing his
Speaker 1: own touring like how and you're in school? Yeah, do
Speaker 1: you like touring? Like have you enjoyed that traveling aspect?
Speaker 1: Seeing all the country and I guess the world too? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I do. I like traveling. You got the travel bug? Yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure. I like to travel. Um. I think people
Speaker 1: think it's way more glamorous than what it is, right
Speaker 1: because they'll be like, oh, you went to the city
Speaker 1: in this city, But it's kind of like you get
Speaker 1: off the bus, you go on the venue, caught back
Speaker 1: on the bus, and you're in the next city. Usually
Speaker 1: don't get to see anything. Yes, um. And when we
Speaker 1: first started dating, we were on a bus with like
Speaker 1: thirteen dudes. Me and him shared a bunk which was
Speaker 1: smaller than a twin bed, and stuck our bulldog at
Speaker 1: our feet. So all three of us were in a
Speaker 1: bunk and that was for like a year and a
Speaker 1: half with the bulldog. With the bulldog. But aren't you
Speaker 1: kind of glad you had that bonding moment. I loved it,
Speaker 1: I like, other than like it started to stink because
Speaker 1: the guys take their their like shirts and socks off
Speaker 1: and they just throw them on the floor after the show. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well he had a he had a girl tour manager
Speaker 1: at first, Um, so we were the only two girls,
Speaker 1: which is just like on a bus full of guys,
Speaker 1: it's just crazy. Um. But now it's all boys. But
Speaker 1: this past year he got his own bus, so it's
Speaker 1: his tour manager, me and Kane. We'll bring our dogs
Speaker 1: and occasionally one of the guys from the band or
Speaker 1: his photographer will ride with us. It's fun. Yeah, it's fun.
Speaker 1: But after like a week, you're like, okay, I'm ready
Speaker 1: to get home. Every time I'm on the bus, I
Speaker 1: just know we're gonna crash, like and that's a terrible
Speaker 1: thing to think. I hate thinking that, Like I cannot
Speaker 1: falslee because you hit the guard rail and yeah, and
Speaker 1: I'm just like, okay, this is it. This is how
Speaker 1: we're going down, like, okay, yeah, please be fast, right.
Speaker 1: I get scared too. In the middle of the night,
Speaker 1: I might wake up and I'm like, I feel like
Speaker 1: we're flying, like slow down, this is huge, they're going
Speaker 1: too fast. Yeah, like I know, or you get like
Speaker 1: a fill in driver, like we have an awesome driver,
Speaker 1: just like he's amazing, Like nothing shifts in the middle
Speaker 1: of the night. I feel having a great driver is
Speaker 1: one of the most important things because they hold everyone's
Speaker 1: life in their absolutely. I would fall asleep at the wheel.
Speaker 1: I cannot stay up all night. I can highway hypnosis,
Speaker 1: like I literally drive anywhere after Yeah, those yellow dots,
Speaker 1: I just start going cross side. I'm like a cross side.
Speaker 1: I just want to close and I know in my
Speaker 1: brain they need to stay open, but I can't. No,
Speaker 1: I feel you, yeah, but having a great driver, But
Speaker 1: I always just a little nervous. And then I tell myself, Caroline,
Speaker 1: this is like the many things you just have to
Speaker 1: learn to give up control. That's me With airplanes, I
Speaker 1: have like this horrible fear of flying. Okay, I don't
Speaker 1: have that. Tell me about your lucky I don't know.
Speaker 1: I've flown my whole life and It kind of happened
Speaker 1: within like the last two years. I kind of had
Speaker 1: a crazy experience just on a bad flight, just a turbulence,
Speaker 1: ton of turbulence. Things were just like falling on the ground,
Speaker 1: like holding on for dear life. That's what it felt
Speaker 1: like to me. Never that's not good. Yeah, um and so,
Speaker 1: and then I had this other experience we're on like
Speaker 1: it was actually really funny. Um Kane and his manager.
Speaker 1: She's so awesome. She and Kane of the same birthday.
Speaker 1: And I think we were in North Carolina or something,
Speaker 1: and they got like a little private plane but it
Speaker 1: was like a propeller plane and I've never flown on
Speaker 1: one of those, to just come back for the night.
Speaker 1: And we had one pilot, which that's like my rule.
Speaker 1: I will not fly if there's one pilot. What if
Speaker 1: something happens to that pilot, We're like, yeah, we're done. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So she she sat as the co pilot and we
Speaker 1: all were like having fun and drinking and like it
Speaker 1: was fun. And he was like, here, I'll teach you
Speaker 1: how to fly, and I'm like, no, hild yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: taught her how to fly, and so she's like okay,
Speaker 1: and you just feel like the plane like dip and
Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, I'm just trying to
Speaker 1: be here for this lesson. I was like, I'm going
Speaker 1: to throw up. It was like a forty five minute
Speaker 1: flight back. But so after like a few plane experiences
Speaker 1: and then just hearing like horrible things in the news
Speaker 1: about little private plane, I think I'm more scared of
Speaker 1: private um freaked me out. And so now every time
Speaker 1: I'm on a plane, if it's not like past noon
Speaker 1: and I can't have like a drink, I like freak out.
Speaker 1: I don't like it, but I do it because I'm
Speaker 1: trying this thing where I don't let fear hold me
Speaker 1: back from living my life. How are you doing that?
Speaker 1: What is your process? Well? I went to Whole Foods
Speaker 1: and I got the Rescue Remedy. It's like these little
Speaker 1: drops you can put on your tongue. I highly recommend.
Speaker 1: Did they calm you down? I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: like in my head because I'm doing something that I'm
Speaker 1: calming down, but they work. And then I put a
Speaker 1: little bit of lavender on my wrists and then I
Speaker 1: listened to the same album every time I fly. What
Speaker 1: is it? Tory Kelly? She just came out with like
Speaker 1: a gospel album to like not gospel, like a Christian album.
Speaker 1: But I love it and I always listened to her.
Speaker 1: Her voice like sues me. I think she's the greatest.
Speaker 1: She's so soulful. So that's like my ritual. Yeah, it helps.
Speaker 1: And then Kane just falls asleep. It's so annoying because
Speaker 1: I'm over there like shaking, my palms are sweatinging. I'm
Speaker 1: staring up the aisle to see if the flight attendants
Speaker 1: are moving around fast, any lights coming on, trying to
Speaker 1: get any signs. I just need to know what's happening
Speaker 1: the psycho. But I'm glad you've original. That's good. Okay.
Speaker 1: How precious is Caitlin Brown. I cannot handle her. She's
Speaker 1: so stinking cute. And I love that she's conquering her
Speaker 1: fears and she's finding a ritual and she's getting over
Speaker 1: the fear flying because that is really scary, Like that
Speaker 1: is a real legit fear. This is nothing like flying.
Speaker 1: But I if you know me, you know the kitchen
Speaker 1: has been a fear for me, it really has. I've
Speaker 1: been really afraid of cooking because I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: terrible at it. Every time I've tried to do something
Speaker 1: on my own and come up with my own recipe,
Speaker 1: I feel like it's always a failure. And being a wife,
Speaker 1: I really just want to rocket in the kitchen because
Speaker 1: it makes you feel so good to be able to
Speaker 1: give your husband a home cooked meal or your partner.
Speaker 1: So if you guys feel like me, home chef is
Speaker 1: a godsend. It is an answered prayer. Every week. There's

Speaker 1: to Caitlin talking about conquering her fears. I love that
Speaker 1: you are talking about not letting fear hold you back, though,
Speaker 1: because someone like you and all the wives that have
Speaker 1: been interviewing for this series are phenomenal like yourself, and
Speaker 1: so it's always so interesting to me to realize that
Speaker 1: I see you and I think perfection, true perfection, But
Speaker 1: it's like you have things that you have to overcome too,
Speaker 1: you know, and it's just we're all just destruct not struggle,
Speaker 1: but just figuring out ways to get through this and
Speaker 1: not let fear step in and drive the car. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: I have terrible anxiety. Like what gives you anxiety? I
Speaker 1: don't know. And that's the weird thing I'm trying to
Speaker 1: figure out. I think I have low B twelve. So
Speaker 1: I've been doing B twelve shots. But I know I
Speaker 1: sound crazy, but I'm trying to figure it out because
Speaker 1: I'll get like a panic attack and I'll just be
Speaker 1: watching a movie. It's like a shortness of breath feeling,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what is wrong with me? So um,
Speaker 1: I'm very like holistic. And again, well I try to
Speaker 1: say gluten free, um, no dairy um, and I eat
Speaker 1: no red meats, I do fish. But you feel so
Speaker 1: good not after Thanksgiving? Well you have to take a
Speaker 1: little break your wedding. Then Thanksgiving, Yeah, will come from
Speaker 1: like alcohol and cake, not from like bad food. It
Speaker 1: would be like sweets and alcohol. Um. I like ice
Speaker 1: cream cake too. I like cookie dough. Oh me too.
Speaker 1: That's my Favorite's just my second favorite. I love it.
Speaker 1: I love basing robins. Oh, yes, are all yes, Okay.
Speaker 1: What's your favorite alcohol of choice or beverage? Usually wine, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm a wine drinker. Red white, um, red, if it's
Speaker 1: after six white, if it's before white. It's like my
Speaker 1: light daytime, and Champs is like makes mine any anytime
Speaker 1: I can add Champs to my day, I'm like, today
Speaker 1: just got fun. Like today just like got awesome. It's
Speaker 1: fun and like you can drink it as soon as
Speaker 1: you wake up. If you want to throw some o
Speaker 1: J in there, you're doing yourself a favor. You're giving
Speaker 1: yourself that vitamin C. Yeah, you're like, you're welcome body,
Speaker 1: and then you know a couple of hours later it's
Speaker 1: time for a great nap. So it's like once again,
Speaker 1: you're welcome body, not even a great nap. So basically
Speaker 1: when mostes are healthy, I think, I think so. So
Speaker 1: you're gluten free, you like like the oils essential oils. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not a lot of meat, mainly just fish dish. Usually
Speaker 1: I'll have chicken once in a blue moon if there's
Speaker 1: no If we're somewhere for dinner and there's like two options,
Speaker 1: like a steak or chicken, I'll order the chicken and
Speaker 1: I'll have like two bites and then you're like, OK,
Speaker 1: I'm done. Yeah. I love animals and it and it
Speaker 1: makes me not feel as well, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I wonder sometimes if I don't feel as well after
Speaker 1: I eat me because I tried to be vegetarian for
Speaker 1: eight months because of the animals, and then I gained
Speaker 1: ten pounds because I was eating cars, cars, cars, everything.
Speaker 1: Like I'm a vegetarian, I have to eat this. This
Speaker 1: is part of my diet. Plant. I'm like, what diet
Speaker 1: is only eating carves and process food. I'm clearly not
Speaker 1: doing this right. But I know that eating the animals
Speaker 1: makes me feel so sad. I know. But then I'm like, God,
Speaker 1: there's so many things that make me feel sad. If
Speaker 1: I like started with the world, I know we will
Speaker 1: be like in a bubble, Like then I wouldn't even
Speaker 1: live because then I can even go to plants, like
Speaker 1: I can start feeling sad for plants, like the Christmas
Speaker 1: tree we just got. I'm like, we bought this tree
Speaker 1: that's been going for seven years, and we're chopping it
Speaker 1: down and putting it in our house so we can
Speaker 1: live there for thirty days tops and then we're just
Speaker 1: gonna throw it away and I'll give the treat all
Speaker 1: the feelings. And Michael's like, you gotta rain it in.
Speaker 1: I see, I want a real tree. But Kine's scared
Speaker 1: that the dogs are gonna pee on it, like lift
Speaker 1: their legs because they're both boys and they're just like
Speaker 1: super dominant dogs. So he's like, we're not getting a
Speaker 1: real tree because they're going to think they're outside and
Speaker 1: can lift their leg on a tree. I would never
Speaker 1: have been thought of that we have girl dogs, but
Speaker 1: with a guy dog, especially with a massive people. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that massive his like aim is going to be mid tree.
Speaker 1: He's huge. Yeah, he's huge. He's a big boy. Did
Speaker 1: they sleep in the bed if kids on the road?
Speaker 1: Hopefully he doesn't listen to this. No, no, because I
Speaker 1: go through comforters, you know what I mean, Like they
Speaker 1: ruin a comfort they do it's like impossible to get
Speaker 1: the hair up or like some slobber. I'm the same though.
Speaker 1: I'm like, when Michael's gone on the road, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to sleep in the bed by myself when there's
Speaker 1: two alive and breathing and want to be cuddling. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, I won't pass up good cut off.
Speaker 1: I cannot keep catching Nash on this couch in here
Speaker 1: because he's not allowed on the new one. We just
Speaker 1: got that one out in the living room. We're like, nope,
Speaker 1: they're not allowed. So he keeps coming. I'll let him
Speaker 1: do this because it's kind of like my room. So
Speaker 1: you're like, Mommy says, you can. You can sit on
Speaker 1: that couch all you want, honey. So when you all
Speaker 1: come parents one day, okay, it's gonna be the one
Speaker 1: like these are the rules, this is how it's going,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be like, okay, if we can kind
Speaker 1: of like cut this corner, maybe like your dad's not home,
Speaker 1: you can have that. But I don't know. He's like
Speaker 1: very excited to be a dad one day. He is
Speaker 1: like that's his life goal, Like he cannot wait to stop.
Speaker 1: He's like, I want to be like a football coach,
Speaker 1: baseball coach, basketball coach. Like where are we fitting this in?
Speaker 1: Are you serious? He loves kids and he like cannot
Speaker 1: wait to be a dad. Does that just s melt you? Yeah?
Speaker 1: But I'm kind of just like, okay, well, your career
Speaker 1: is like going really fast right now. And getting someone
Speaker 1: to watch our dogs. If we don't take them every weekend,
Speaker 1: it's hard enough. So let's but but there's no rush.
Speaker 1: You know, he wants that, but there's no rush. We
Speaker 1: need to live right now. And this is what's kind
Speaker 1: of like happening. It's great that you literally have so
Speaker 1: much time. Yeah, that's great, it's amazing, and I think
Speaker 1: truly you might as well just enjoy as much time
Speaker 1: as you can as a married couple when you're young,
Speaker 1: when all the stuff is new and exciting, and live
Speaker 1: it up, because then you'll get to the point where
Speaker 1: you're like, Okay, I've been there, done that. You're ready
Speaker 1: for a new thing. But you got all this time
Speaker 1: together and form this great foundation and have all these memories. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's kind of like all I wanna do is like
Speaker 1: travel and enjoy each other right now, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like just keep doing what we're doing and
Speaker 1: be us. And yeah, I don't know, so what do
Speaker 1: you guys Like, y'all are funny together, y'all are goofy Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Dancy, we're weird, but what weird? Just we're weird,
Speaker 1: actually weird. I don't know, like we just like it's
Speaker 1: just very like all humor, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Awes Like we'll talk to each other and he's like,
Speaker 1: weird voices and might be weird, okay, But I love
Speaker 1: it because it makes me do you we have characters? Wait?
Speaker 1: So do we have a full character? Like we are
Speaker 1: so weird? And I love it because it's not like
Speaker 1: sexual characters. No no, no, no no, no not at all,
Speaker 1: not at a talk to each other voices, just different
Speaker 1: voices for like different situations, and Michael always is doing
Speaker 1: the voices and I'm so glad we're not the only one.
Speaker 1: But it makes me laugh so hard sometimes I'm like
Speaker 1: I just have to I have to like pursue it
Speaker 1: and I'll try to like get involved with the story
Speaker 1: because I wanted to keep going because it's so funny
Speaker 1: to me in this little life and personality. I'm always like,
Speaker 1: are you gonna make animated films one day? Because you
Speaker 1: have a plethora of voices? Yeah? No, that's that's me
Speaker 1: in Kaine, Like we legit are always talking in different voices.
Speaker 1: I was like, if someone put hidden cameras in our house,
Speaker 1: they would think we were the weirdest people in our
Speaker 1: Like I can't I love that I can't. That makes
Speaker 1: me so happy, don't you love though? Because you're so lighthearted.
Speaker 1: You said you grew up with brothers group, with a
Speaker 1: dad who always is making light of serious situations. Obviously
Speaker 1: you've married some of the great sense of humor. I
Speaker 1: appreciate that so much, being able to be in a
Speaker 1: light marriage, Like even though Michael and I deal with
Speaker 1: heavy things, it's like he always is wanting to make
Speaker 1: it light and I am so grateful to have that
Speaker 1: because it's life is so stressful. I know, like the
Speaker 1: little things that I stress about that that seemed big
Speaker 1: at the time. He's like, are you honestly like upset
Speaker 1: about that? And I'm like you're not, And he's like no,
Speaker 1: And I'm like what I wish I could like have
Speaker 1: a little bit more of that. But you're very lighthearted,
Speaker 1: I am, um, But he's like extra chill, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like it's all good. How is it
Speaker 1: that way? I don't know. I don't know. Kan Kane
Speaker 1: had like quite the story growing up, and I feel
Speaker 1: like he's just a strong person and he's tough and
Speaker 1: it would take something big to really to rock his belt. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's very just we'll figure it. Every time I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: this happened, so what are we going to do about
Speaker 1: We'll figure it out. And I'm like, well when when,
Speaker 1: and he's like, we'll get it done. It'll be done.
Speaker 1: I think sometimes that happens. I feel like because Michael
Speaker 1: had kind of an emotional start also, and I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't even know what Kans is, but I think
Speaker 1: when you can survive some heavy stuff when you're young,
Speaker 1: you almost like your heart has gets so expanded in
Speaker 1: so many ways, like paintball ways too, that you're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to stress about this because you've already
Speaker 1: gone through all this other stuff that you're like, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna worry about it unless it's huge. It just
Speaker 1: takes something big for him to, you know, get out
Speaker 1: of it. That's probably why he's been able to navigate
Speaker 1: this career too, because he didn't like freak out at
Speaker 1: every corner. He does it so gracefully. He does because
Speaker 1: there's some crazy people out there and people are mean.
Speaker 1: People can be so mean. I don't understand. Well, I
Speaker 1: think they said this at my church back in the day,
Speaker 1: cross a cross point. They're like, I don't know where
Speaker 1: I heard it. I've heard it many times. And hurt
Speaker 1: people hurt people, you know, So if you're hurt, I
Speaker 1: believe that you want to hurt someone else or find
Speaker 1: a reason to be upset with someone or someone seems
Speaker 1: to be happy, you want to find any reason to
Speaker 1: tear him down. If you're hurting, Yeah, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people just say like crazy things. How do you navigate
Speaker 1: all that? Um, well, if he's hurt, I'm hurt, and
Speaker 1: he is human, and sometimes I just want to jump
Speaker 1: through the phone or wherever we're at where the negativity is,
Speaker 1: and be like what is wrong with you? Like you're
Speaker 1: an idiot. I'm sorry, like you, I have no problem
Speaker 1: saying it, and I have gone off on people like
Speaker 1: I have no shame in my kid? Does him? Hey don't.
Speaker 1: He doesn't care because he was off on him too.
Speaker 1: We're about like, oh, I'm about to eat them alive.
Speaker 1: And then he has such great fans that they sometimes
Speaker 1: he doesn't even need to because the fans will take
Speaker 1: care of it. Yeah, and even me, like they've even
Speaker 1: been there for me at times, like when you get
Speaker 1: like some mean girl, like all of a sudden, it's
Speaker 1: just like put like all these comments start coming in
Speaker 1: like you need to back up and like, Okay, it's awesome,
Speaker 1: we love it, and I'm just like, wow, thank God
Speaker 1: for you people, like thank God for the good people
Speaker 1: in the world. In the majority of them are good.
Speaker 1: It takes one bad apple to ruin a whole batch,
Speaker 1: so you know, and so that's what I have really
Speaker 1: started to realize navigating this lifestyle. And like, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're the same. It's most people really are good,
Speaker 1: Like Luke Bryan says, most people are good, but every
Speaker 1: now and then someone wants to come in and try
Speaker 1: to like throw there's some poison in the well. It's
Speaker 1: just like you can't even. You can't even. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like a whole another world. I feel like on the
Speaker 1: internet because I swear, because half the time when you
Speaker 1: come back at them, they'll be like, oh, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: I didn't know you were going to respond, so then yeah,
Speaker 1: and then it's like, well, then why did you pose it.
Speaker 1: It's like sometimes I think they just respond something hateful
Speaker 1: so their comments stands out so they get a response. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and sometimes they do I guess, yeah, interesting, yeah, because
Speaker 1: like they'll take attention in any way they can get it. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and there's some clothes minded people out there. They're just like, man,
Speaker 1: no one's asking you to change the way that you live,
Speaker 1: so why are you so worried about it? You know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Like, no one's asking you to not
Speaker 1: eat me. Like, if I don't want to leave me alone,
Speaker 1: I didn't tell you not to. And if I want
Speaker 1: to put a certain collar on my dog or feed
Speaker 1: them dog food, that was another thing, Like one time
Speaker 1: I got all this hate about the dog food and
Speaker 1: people are whatever about dogs, Like we take great care
Speaker 1: of our dogs, trust me, they get great food. Yeah,
Speaker 1: great trainers. And people just want to pick apart, like
Speaker 1: you shouldn't have that on your dog. Okay, well then
Speaker 1: don't put it on your dog. Sorry. You're like these
Speaker 1: dogs like live if a great life. So I don't
Speaker 1: know what the issue is, but it's kind of just like,
Speaker 1: leave me alone. Yeah, And if you don't like the
Speaker 1: way I'm doing things, there is an unfollowed button, so
Speaker 1: please push it so I don't have to keep deleting
Speaker 1: your comment or coming at you because it's very exhausting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just un follow me. No one asked you to follow me.
Speaker 1: I did not ask you to follow me. I don't
Speaker 1: need you to follow me. Leave me alone. How do
Speaker 1: you deal with social media? Because like I was also
Speaker 1: talking to Hayley since she was right before we hit
Speaker 1: this topic, and she was like, you know, it's a
Speaker 1: great tool. It's a great way to express things that
Speaker 1: you want to express, and like if you want to
Speaker 1: use it to promote something positive or it's great or
Speaker 1: just to share your life, but then you have to
Speaker 1: figure out the boundary because it can be negative too,
Speaker 1: so have you especially with someone like you and Kine
Speaker 1: who people are very interested in your lives? How do
Speaker 1: you navigate social media? We love social media. I've been
Speaker 1: lying to say that we didn't. We find it fun.
Speaker 1: It is and y'all have fun with it, like doing
Speaker 1: your videos and we we love like interacting with people
Speaker 1: and like I said, like his fans are awesome, So
Speaker 1: like it's fun for the most part, um other than
Speaker 1: like those few negative people out there, but we enjoy it.
Speaker 1: And um, I follow only Kane my Instagram that I
Speaker 1: had years ago. You decided to do that. I didn't
Speaker 1: want to, Like, I don't know, I think it just
Speaker 1: gets too deep. It's like this is this is my
Speaker 1: person and this is who I'm following, and he follows me,
Speaker 1: and he follows like a few close friends or like
Speaker 1: who he's you know, gone out on tour with um.
Speaker 1: But when I get on Instagram, it's just like whatever
Speaker 1: I want to post, and I don't get caught up
Speaker 1: and seeing everything else. And I feel like it's envious
Speaker 1: of that really healthy for me because I'm not like
Speaker 1: to check in on somebody. You can go pop over, yeah,
Speaker 1: like I'll check it with my friends, and honestly, it
Speaker 1: pops up on my explore page. Like my Explore page
Speaker 1: is like my family and my friends because my Instagram
Speaker 1: knows who I went and looked up. But it's it's
Speaker 1: just like so so much more clean. My Instagram is
Speaker 1: just like I get on and I'm like, oh you
Speaker 1: express yourself, express myself, and I get off. I have
Speaker 1: like major endy of that, Like I don't go on
Speaker 1: Facebook anymore or do anything like that. I'm done with Facebook.
Speaker 1: Can I just go away? Facebook? Can it just go away? Yes? Yes,
Speaker 1: Kane says most of the hates on Facebook too, it
Speaker 1: is yeah, he was like, out of all other platforms, Facebook,
Speaker 1: and I feel like it's just because there's so many
Speaker 1: people on Facebook, and like there's so many always just
Speaker 1: like my grandparents are on Facebook. Yeah, so were mine.
Speaker 1: It's time to just en Facebook. It's too much, too
Speaker 1: much like Instagram. So easy, Ye done, done, Facebook you
Speaker 1: can buy. There's too many things. I agree. You're so
Speaker 1: wise and like I'm telling you, like I'm obsessed with you.
Speaker 1: You were amazing, But now what I've talked to you
Speaker 1: like to be so young, and like just your perspective
Speaker 1: on stuff. You have such a clean as the world
Speaker 1: I want to think of. It's such a clean, clear,
Speaker 1: like lighthearted perspective on things, like you're real about it.
Speaker 1: But then you're also just like I'm not gonna worry
Speaker 1: about stuff, Like you're just very you got a good
Speaker 1: perspective on everything. I just feel like when you get
Speaker 1: too many things going into your life, it just becomes dirty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: too much drama. Um, I've never been like a girl's girl.
Speaker 1: Like always hanging out with like a big group of
Speaker 1: girls kind of intimidated me. I felt like maybe I
Speaker 1: wouldn't fit in because I was more of like a
Speaker 1: tomboy or hung out with my brothers and you know,
Speaker 1: like I just I don't know so moving to Nashville.
Speaker 1: I feel like there's lots of clicks too. How long
Speaker 1: have you been in Nashville? Uh? Three years? Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: So tell me about your thoughts on it all, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: have you found that people have been pretty Nashville? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I love Nashville. Um. I feel like when I for
Speaker 1: has moved here, I was kind of like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: where do I fit in? Because it's overwhelming. It is
Speaker 1: it is, um, but I think it's an awesome city.
Speaker 1: I wish we were a little closer to a coast.
Speaker 1: That's my one that's my one request. I thought a
Speaker 1: little Inland, but um, I like Nashville. I think the
Speaker 1: people are really great. Um for what he's doing, I
Speaker 1: would much rather this is the city I would pick
Speaker 1: to live in rather than l A or New York
Speaker 1: or Atlanta. School I could live in Atlanta, but Nashville
Speaker 1: is just a cool city. No one really bothers you
Speaker 1: and we can go do things here. Yeah. I like it.
Speaker 1: It's kind of just like super laid back when it
Speaker 1: has a lot going on. And the people, genuinely, I
Speaker 1: have found like, are really nice, like every time too.
Speaker 1: Everyone everyone's super nice and like a lot of people
Speaker 1: are just passionate and working on their own stuff and
Speaker 1: supportive and absolutely and all the wives are really cool,
Speaker 1: really cool. They've just been so easy and they've been
Speaker 1: so welcoming. So that's awesome. Yeah, I love that. And okay,
Speaker 1: so tell me how your thron school. And on top
Speaker 1: of this, what do you stay? I am so ready
Speaker 1: to be done um music Business and management. Dang. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So after I left college to pursue music UM, and
Speaker 1: then me and Kane started dating, I was like, I
Speaker 1: need I want to finish my degree, especially now we
Speaker 1: have all these plaques on the wall of Kane. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick my diploma right in the center. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be like on the mantel, like Kin has all
Speaker 1: these words. I'm like, I'm gonna get one thing to
Speaker 1: hang on the wall, I swear, right in the center
Speaker 1: where everyone can see it. So yeah, I went back
Speaker 1: to school two years ago and I graduate. I'll be
Speaker 1: done in April. Heck yes, And I'm going to get
Speaker 1: a cap and gown and I'm going to fly to
Speaker 1: Boston because that's where my school's at. I'm going to
Speaker 1: walk like a regular student might be a little older
Speaker 1: than them now, but good for you. You know, having
Speaker 1: moments like that are so important. I think it's like
Speaker 1: it's so good not just to dial it in and
Speaker 1: get your plumb in the mail, although anybody wants to
Speaker 1: do that. Go you, support you, But like, I'm all
Speaker 1: about making a moment a moment, Like if you do something,
Speaker 1: absolutely it's been a large part of your life and
Speaker 1: energy trying to make something happen, You've got to celebrate it.
Speaker 1: You know. I'm decorating that cap, putting sparkles all over
Speaker 1: the top. I'm gonna put the year I was supposed
Speaker 1: to graduate on it, and then I want to have
Speaker 1: a graduation party, and I wanted to be college theme.
Speaker 1: I want kegs, beer pong and just party like it's
Speaker 1: what year was I supposed to graduate two thousand and
Speaker 1: I don't even know what year I was. I would
Speaker 1: have graduated two thousand and You're awesome. Yeah, heck yes,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it like I'm gonna do the full
Speaker 1: college thing. I know you will. Yeah, this is great.

Speaker 1: discussed this, so he's like I'm not missing it. He's like,
Speaker 1: I will be there and then I'll just leave right after.
Speaker 1: And I was like, you'd better be there. So because
Speaker 1: it was be in the day, I guess yeah, it
Speaker 1: would be in the morning, like probably eleven. It will
Speaker 1: last like two hours or so. So we'll go to
Speaker 1: that and I'll have my little moment to just feel accomplished. Heck, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: I love that. You're a badass. Thanks, Carl. You really
Speaker 1: are like trying, but it's not fun and it's not
Speaker 1: it's not easy to go back to school. Trust me.

Speaker 1: doing this? But the fact that you're just doing it
Speaker 1: and you're like, I'm committed, I'm gonna finish it. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do this. Like I love that that you had
Speaker 1: a goal and you're like, I'm going to do it.

Speaker 1: it sucks, yeah, right now sucks. Yeah, but I know

Speaker 1: whole process, and you could say you did that forever. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's not the same thing, but it's like
Speaker 1: it's that kind of sense of accomplishment. I'm gonna set
Speaker 1: where you don't have to do it per se, but
Speaker 1: you just do it because you want to write and
Speaker 1: proved yourself that you can and it makes you a
Speaker 1: better person because absolutely, there's been so many times I'm
