It's all fun to me. It's 26 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: like putting together a puzzle, you know, and you know 27 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: how you want the final puzzle to look. But you 28 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: have all these pieces and you're like, man, how could 29 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: I put these pieces together? And how could? And that 30 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: also makes me think that, you know, you got to 31 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: have someone helping you put it together with you, many 32 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: people in my case, helping me put together the puzzle 33 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: of what could be a hit song. It's a fun challenge. 34 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: I'm at home today off tour. In fact that this 35 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: is the month of January. I don't know when you're 36 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: listening to this, but this is the month of January 37 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 1: when I'm recording it twenty twenty. That's such a crazy 38 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: thing to say, isn't it twenty twenty? It sounds like 39 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: at the future. I can't believe I've made it to 40 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I was talking to my son Lincoln, and 41 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: I said that if he lives long enough, God willing, 42 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: we don't know what tomorrow brings, but if he lives 43 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: long enough, he will see the turn of the century 44 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: twenty one hundred. I believe he'll be eighty six. London 45 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: would be eighty eight, and that crazy to think. Twenty 46 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: one hundred, I will be long gone. I won't be 47 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: around for that unless I'm like one hundred and seven. 48 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, but that's a lot. I'm home. The 49 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: January is typically a slow touring month on purpose. I've 50 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: been going to the gym and people are like, you're 51 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: coming to the gym again. Usually you're gone. I'm like, no. 52 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: January is typically pretty slow on purpose. There's not that 53 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: many festivals. The rodeos haven't started, fairs haven't started, and 54 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: it's a good time for all of us, me and 55 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 1: the band to kind of regroup. We are heading to 56 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: la next week. We're going to play the Staples Center 57 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: with Caine Brown and I don't know who else is 58 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: on that show, but that's going to be a lot 59 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: of fun. We've been looking forward to that when that 60 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: was rescheduled from I believe last October when Cain, his drummer, 61 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: tragically died in a car accident, so they had to reschedule. 62 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: Terrible news for that. We were all good friends. We 63 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: toured a Lot with Caine in twenty nineteen. After that 64 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: we'll be heading to Mexico with Luke Bryan for Crash 65 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: My Plaia, and that is it pretty much for touring. 66 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: We don't really start the tour until January thirty, first 67 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: we get back out there. I know Kansas City is 68 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: on that list, Saint Louis, Oklahoma City. That's about as 69 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: far as I can remember. I have some fun hunting 70 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: trips coming up this month. I have a trip I'm 71 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: going to take with the family to Idaho here in 72 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: a week or so, which I'm really excited about. I 73 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: haven't taken the family to Idaho with me to see 74 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: the Sawtooth Mountains. It's just unbelievable nature, unbelievable country, and 75 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: I'm really excited to get them out there. We're going 76 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: to stay at a friend's cabin and we are going 77 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: to film an episode of The Smiths or two while 78 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: we're there, just because I think it's going to be 79 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: a really fun adventure. My friend sent me a picture 80 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: from his living room of this cabin we're going to 81 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: be in. You could see elk walking through the woods 82 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: right outside the window. So I showed Lincoln in London. 83 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: They're really excited. So that's me. That's my life right now, 84 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: and I like it. It's really slow, and I'm in 85 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in my closet in my little studio, my studio, 86 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: I say studio. It's actually a bedroom that I converted 87 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: into a studio. And I've been doing this bedroom conversion 88 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: thing in many houses, in rent houses and apartments that 89 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: I've lived in over the last couple of decades. And 90 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: this is this is always where the magic happens, I guess. 91 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: And I am in the We've lived in this house 92 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: now since July, so not that long, and and I 93 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: have everything set up ready to go. I've sang a 94 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: couple of songs. This is where I've seen all my 95 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: records in a closet just like this, and so all 96 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: the new album, the new stuff will be recorded right here, 97 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: which you will hear new music from me this year 98 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. I'm excited about, very excited about, and 99 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: it will be recorded in this little closet. This is 100 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: the first podcast I've recorded in this little closet. Now. 101 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: The cool thing about this episode nineteen is I'm not 102 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: going to continue on the story that I was on 103 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: in episode eighteen, I told you leading up to a 104 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: record deal and Backroad song, and I played you an 105 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: old recording when I first wrote Backroad Song with different lyrics, 106 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: which is kind of vulnerable but fun to play for 107 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: the very first time to hear new lyrics, you know, 108 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: actually old lyrics that are new to you. And I 109 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: have that with every song. But what's gonna make this 110 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: podcast different is I'm going to go to the Smiths, 111 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: which is our YouTube channel. It's a family vlog channel. 112 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: We've been recording most of twenty nineteen, will continue through 113 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. We put out episodes on YouTube on our 114 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: channel every Tuesday and Thursday. And this is a family 115 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,679 Speaker 1: blog channel. It's either me with the kids in Amber 116 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: at home, or it's Amber and the kids at home 117 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: versus me on the road, and we kind of have 118 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: that dynamic back and forth. So I'm going to go 119 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: to one of these episodes. It's called Answering Your Questions, 120 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: and I thought, hey, this could be a cool podcast. 121 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: Everyone's always asking Amber and I have some questions, and 122 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: so I thought, you know, I'll take the audio from 123 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: that video and throw it on this podcast so that 124 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: those of you, those that are podcasters and not YouTubers. 125 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: I know some of you are going to overlap, but 126 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: the ones that are just solely podcasters, you like to, 127 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: you know, get in your car, your truck, drive down 128 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: the road, maybe you're on a road trip, maybe you're 129 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: going to work, maybe you're commuting, whatever you're doing, taking 130 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: the kids to school, whatever. You listen to podcasts and 131 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: you don't YouTube. So I'm gonna throw the audio on 132 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: this so that you could listen to these answers and 133 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: if you like it, maybe we could do more. We 134 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: could do more, and go ahead and go and go 135 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: to social media. Let me know what you think, hashtag 136 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: Granger Smith podcast. What do we need to do? Moving on? 137 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: And I'll follow your lead. So I'm going to go 138 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: now to this audio. This is from me and Amber. 139 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: We're sitting on our porch answering questions that she asked 140 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: on her Instagram, which is Amber Emily Smith. She said, 141 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: ask me some questions, and this is us answering them. 142 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 1: Love you guys. Here we go. All right, Hi, guys, 143 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: we're going to spend today answering questions. So we have 144 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: your questions. I asked you guys on Instagram a few 145 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: questions so let's just start with something Christmas Eve. It's 146 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: your favorite Christmas movie. Favorite Christmas movie is probably oh same, 147 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: watch that again last night last night. Yeah, fell asleep 148 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: to it last night. Actually, sorry about the airplane. Every 149 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: time I start filming the Smith's an airplane pause over, 150 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: and I think that's river thinking about us. I had 151 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: somebody ask who is your target audience because they said that. 152 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: They said them, their husband and their child all love 153 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: the Smiths, So who's our target demo? So looking at 154 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: the analytics behind the scenes of the YouTube app, looking 155 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 1: at the Smiths, it's like sixty five percent women, majority 156 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: are five, which is crazy because then my Granger Smith 157 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: YouTube has always been like eighty percent male. So I 158 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: think we're kind of I think that's probably how we're working. 159 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: I'm probably working towards the male crowd, and she's probably 160 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: working towards the female crowd. And then for the kids. 161 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: They obviously they won't see that in the analytics because 162 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: usually the parents put their ages in, but we hear 163 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: a lot of you kids like the Smiths too, so 164 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: kind of everybody, we're kind of go yeah ages. Something 165 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: actually I can announce now? Is it on tour in 166 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, we're going to open meet and greets because 167 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: we do a paid meet and greet so that you 168 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: could be guaranteed to come backstage. So we're gonna in 169 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I don't even I told you, but we're 170 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: gonna make kids free, so kids could go to meet 171 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: and greet with an adult, but as many as many 172 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: kids as you want. So we're doing them all free 173 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. Okay, So that was another question, can 174 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: we meet you and Amber together at a meet and greet? 175 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: So Grangeer and I were just talking about this yesterday. 176 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: It's hard for me to travel during the school year 177 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,959 Speaker 1: with him a lot because I've got the kids and 178 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: we've got school during the summer, I try to get out, 179 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: but we talked yesterday about maybe doing a meet and greet, 180 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: me having a separate meet and greet, and we like 181 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: announced dates that I'll be on tour with him. And 182 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: then I was thinking we could just take donations for 183 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: the River Kelly Fund for that, because like Granger's meet 184 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: and greets are usually paid, but I don't. I would 185 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 1: rather just donate the money to the fund, I think, 186 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 1: So that might be something that we're gonna do in 187 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, we'll make say, we'll say, Okay, I'm going 188 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: to be at these five dates, get your tickets to 189 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: and then come see me, come see both of us. Yeah. 190 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: This last West Coast tour we just did. Sorry about 191 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: the birds, Yeah, birds in their sorry, but this last 192 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: West Coast tour we just did. During the meet and greets, 193 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 1: I swear it was like every third person was like, 194 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: is Amber here on meet Amber? And I'm like, yeah, 195 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: she's with the kids. It's difficult, but yeah, So what 196 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 1: we're gonna do is twenty twenty, she'll go on tour 197 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: with me some of the time, but whenever she does, 198 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: we'll announce Amber's with me, Amber's gonna do a meet 199 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: and greet. And I gotta tell y'all the the reason 200 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: they're paid there's you know, I think the probably the 201 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,839 Speaker 1: main reason is just to try to control it because 202 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: they can't just open it up to anyone. Well, and 203 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: he's still he's still having to meet. He's getting to 204 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: meet I should say, he's getting to meet all you 205 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 1: guys before the show, but sometimes that could be upwards 206 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: of two hundred people, and if it was all free, 207 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: he would never get on stage, So usually about fifty 208 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: to seventy five of those are already free because they're 209 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 1: coming through winners at the radio station, or friends of friends, 210 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: or somebody that some kind of disability or underprivileged situation 211 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: that we just meet them anyway. But yeah, so Amber's 212 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 1: gonna come in twenty twenty, well, and we'll announce when 213 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: she's coming. I need to come back out more too. Okay, 214 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: how do we keep the romance going? Since we've been 215 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 1: married for ten years, we probably have different answers. But 216 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: one of the ways for me, for sure is my 217 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: work schedule. I know through friends that sometimes there's a 218 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: tendency for one spouse to wish the other would slow 219 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: down and work and just stay there all the time. 220 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: And from my experience, not our experience, but me seeing 221 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: other people, that seems to be kind of a drag 222 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: on a relationship is when you're just always together. So 223 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: because of her schedule and my work schedule, when we 224 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: are together, we make the most of it. And sometimes 225 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: when I'm gone, like I was just gone for ten days, 226 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: which is kind of a lot these days. Usually it's 227 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: like four or five. It was gone for ten days, 228 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: and when I got home it was like a brand 229 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: new relationship. You know, it keeps it, It keeps it fresh, 230 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: It keeps it, it keeps us missing each other. You 231 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: need to miss each other, you need to like long 232 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: for each other. You can't. There's no way in my 233 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 1: mind to keep a relationship hot and heavy if you're 234 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: just with each other twenty four to seven or I 235 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: just that's in my opinion. Yeah, yep, I agree. Plus 236 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: he sends me you know here, or we leave each 237 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: other notes like if he goes on the road, I'll 238 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 1: stick something in his bag or I'll find one under 239 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: my pillow, or you know, sweet texts and things like that. 240 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: But plus, like for me anyway, I just love him. 241 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: So that's how that's how I keep it special since 242 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: we've been married. Okay, will we ever film a house tour? 243 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: I thought about that today because I see that a lot, 244 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: and it's okay. One reason is we still haven't totally 245 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: moved in. There's still I was just upstairs and there's 246 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: still like pictures that are leaning on the wall and not. 247 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: But two, you know, when we bought this house, it 248 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: wasn't it wasn't a super proud moment. It wasn't like 249 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,599 Speaker 1: you know a lot of YouTubers that are like, just 250 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: bought our dream house full tour. You know, it wasn't 251 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: a YouTube move for us, it you know, it was 252 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: it was at a necessity and needed. It was a 253 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: safe spot, it was a safe place to land. So 254 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: I don't think I ever looked at it as an 255 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: YouTube video opportunity to show off this house. In fact, 256 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: I'm still trying to make it our home because when 257 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: we're in therapy a few weeks ago on a retreat, 258 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: and one kind of one of the things we walked 259 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: away with after therapy was coming home and making this 260 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: house a home because you know, to be totally honest, 261 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: I find myself late at night on my phone and 262 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: looking at real estate apps. Seemed if I could find 263 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: something that's better suits me and her. But and that's 264 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: just the honest truth. Yeah, I mean, we could take 265 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: a camera through here and show you guys everything, but 266 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: it you know, and and we're proud and grateful to 267 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: be in this home. It's it's beautiful, and it's a 268 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: it's an amazing place to land. It is. It's not 269 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: it's not like our old home, which we made into 270 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: our home, and you know, we had all the kids' 271 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: memories there, and I don't know, Yeah, yeah, it was. 272 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: We came from a ten acre farmhouse that I worked 273 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: to clear that land and cleared every cedar tree on 274 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: it with either my hands or a chainsaw or a 275 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: skid steer that I leased, and and then the boys 276 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: helped me and I planted the grass with you know, 277 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: seeds from my own hands. And then we came here 278 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: and it's three acres and there's really not much work 279 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: to even be done done here. So besides, I built 280 00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: the fire pit. I just need to. I don't know's 281 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: it's a hard it's a hard situation. Yeah, I'm sure 282 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: you guys understand maybe something. Yep, our Granger and Lincoln 283 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: excited for Mandalorian and Star Wars movie. Yeah, So we 284 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: came home from tour. I landed at eight thirty am 285 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: on Sunday this past Sunday from Denver, Colorado. They picked 286 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: me up and we literally went straight to the movie 287 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: theater and saw Rise of Skywalker. Because Lincoln and I 288 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: have really bonded over the Star Wars series over the 289 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: last several months. Baseball and Star Wars have been like 290 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: our two major bonding things, and so we all went 291 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: as a family, and yeah, it was got little Star 292 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: Wars cups and yeah it was good. It was really fun, 293 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: really fun. Love. Is there going to be new River merch? Yes, 294 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm working on the new River shirt. I was hoping 295 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: to have it out beginning of January. I still am 296 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: probably going to be pretty close to that. We just 297 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: had a lot of designs and I think I was 298 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: being really picky because I wanted to be perfect. But 299 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: I asked you guys on Instagram some of your favorites. 300 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: So I think what we're gonna do is just every 301 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: few months we'll come out with a new one and 302 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: then that money will be donated to the River Kelly Fund. 303 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: So yes, I'll have stickers and a new River shirt soon. 304 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: How do we stay so fit? Do we diet? Okay? 305 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean when it comes to being fit, this is 306 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: this is a something that I've had to learn over 307 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: a lot, you know, a lot of years. It's eighty 308 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 1: percent diet. You can go to the gym every day, 309 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: you could run, you could do pilates or yoga or 310 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: whatever you're into, but it's eighty percent when you eat. 311 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: And so are we perfect at that? And no, no, 312 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: I just had lucky charms. No, we're not perfect at that, 313 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: but that's just if you want results, it's it's not 314 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: finding some crazy fashion trend diet, you know, it's you know, 315 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: whatever the latest diet is. There's I've read so many 316 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: studies on diets, dieting and fad dieting, and they all 317 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: have pretty much the exact same result. Whether you're talking 318 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: about keto or Paleo or Atkins ort, whatever's it all 319 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: has the same average result and it just depends on 320 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: if you stay with it. So it's more of trying 321 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: to find what fits your lifestyle, like what do you 322 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: enjoy eating that's also healthy that you could maintain for decades. Really, 323 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: I mean it's a balance. I mean we've been going 324 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 1: to the gym, trying to go every day, but some 325 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: days obviously I don't. I've got kids and sometimes they're sick, 326 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: and sometimes I can't, and I try to eat healthy, 327 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: but I also enjoy cookies and wine, and we pick Sundays. 328 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 1: We eat whatever we want on Sundays, So we typically 329 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: will do our dinner will be like a grilled chicken 330 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: and vegetables and you know, not a lot of bread 331 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: and not a dessert. And stuff like that, and nothing fried. 332 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: And then on Sundays we'll get pizza and we'll go 333 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: get big, huge cheeseburgers and fries and and milkshakes and 334 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: so kind of opening that up on the seventh day 335 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: of the week allows me to be better on six 336 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: to six days before. Can we tell them about our 337 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: wedding day? Will we ever share a photo? That's interesting question. 338 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: That means somebody's been searching. So when we got married, 339 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: it was February eleventh, twenty ten, and I wasn't a 340 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: very well known singer. You're more well known than I 341 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: was as an actor, I'm sure, but we just kind 342 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: of decided early on that that's going to be our day. Yeah, 343 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: And who knows if we had this smiss going that 344 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: back then, if that would have if we would have 345 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: put that on there, I don't know, but but we 346 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: always decided that that was gonna be our special day. 347 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: And listen, we didn't even have friends. It was really 348 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: very small. We got married at Horshoe Bay Resort. It 349 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: was we narrowed it down to fifty people, which was 350 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: just family. I mean even cousins couldn't come and got 351 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: upset and we just decided. It was just a very 352 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: intimate day for us. We were supposed to get married outside, 353 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: but it ended up being freezing cold, so we got 354 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: moved in in the Texas hill country, central Texas. It 355 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: was raining, it was freezing rain, and we got moved 356 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: up up inside the building. So that was you know, 357 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 1: just lots of things went that technically could be called 358 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,400 Speaker 1: went wrong happened, but it was all perfect. It was incredible. 359 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: It was incredible. It rained, The door got stuck when 360 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 1: I was walking out. I walked out with my dad 361 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: and my stepdad both on either side, and the door 362 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: got stuck. I forgot. Lots of other things happened, but 363 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: it was a perfect day and we just haven't We 364 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: haven't posted any photos or shared any photos. We also 365 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 1: tried to save a lot of money because we kind 366 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: of paid for it ourselves, and obviously our parents helped, 367 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: but we were trying to cut cut money out anyway 368 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: we could. I remember our cakes. Our cakes were like 369 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: this big. We skimmed on the cakes and I skimmed 370 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: on a videographer. We didn't have a videographer, so I 371 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: think it was filmed on somebody's cell phone, which I 372 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: don't even know if I have that anymore. Yeah, so 373 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: we talked about maybe doing a ten year reading our 374 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 1: bowels and maybe filming that and making that a big deal. 375 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, it was a small wedding and we 376 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: saved money and then we had a reception for all 377 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: of our friends like a week later. Yeah, you know, 378 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: in Fort Worth, Texas, which is really fun. By the way. 379 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: On a side note, I'm looking out right now into 380 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: the woods and our cedar trees are pollinating right now, 381 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: and those of y'all that live around Juniper Mountain cedar, 382 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: it is crazy. They literally a tree will just go 383 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: and just explode pallen that looks like white smoke and 384 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: then it just dissipates into the woods. It's the weirdest. 385 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: It's like the trees are alive and they just go 386 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: and explode. If you haven't seen it, there's videos of 387 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: that on YouTube. It's crazy. Sorry, go ahead, Okay. Do 388 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: we ever feel guilty for having fun now and feel 389 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: like River should be here or do we ever? There 390 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: are times when if I'm laughing really hard with the 391 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: kids or we're all having fun, I do in my mind, 392 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my gosh, like I shouldn't be shouldn't 393 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: be laughing, you know, but you have to. You have 394 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: to enjoy life and you have to you have to 395 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: enjoy your kids, and you have to have fun. And 396 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: River would want that. And River is not thinking about 397 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 1: us right now. He's in the most amazing place. He's 398 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: not sitting there looking at us saying, oh, gosh, you know, 399 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: they're having fun without me. So I think it's natural 400 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: to do that. And it's it's natural. And all the 401 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: things that we do now that are fun, and I think, gosh, 402 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: you know, he would love that, he would love this 403 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: or wish, wish you know, he was with us. Yeah, 404 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: I think that's natural. It's interesting because that thought of 405 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: guilt comes with the loss of any body that you love. 406 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 1: And we learned so much in therapy and just experience. 407 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: But they taught us in therapy that the price of 408 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: grief is love. Like that, it's not the other way around, 409 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: because you don't You could love someone and not always 410 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: grieve them, But when you grieve someone, it's because you 411 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: love someone, and how hard you grieving is how hard 412 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: you love them. And the interesting thing about that is 413 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: about the guilt, is that anyone that you love, think 414 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: of anyone, whether it's a grandparent or a friend or 415 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: a neighbor or anybody that you grieve, if you're having 416 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: fun after they're gone, that's what that person would want. 417 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: They want to look down from heaven. And if you 418 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: can look down from heaven, they want to see you smiling. 419 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 1: They don't want to see you sad. So it's interesting 420 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: that internally we think we should be sad. It's really range, 421 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: but it's it's it is a battle, and it's a 422 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: legit question. Yeah, do you guys still have River's room 423 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: together and all of his stuff? Well? Interesting question, Interesting questions. 424 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: So in our old house, River and Lincoln shared a 425 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: room their roommate, So there was a bunk bed in 426 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: his crib. So really the only thing in that room 427 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: that was Rivers was his crib, which, on a side note, 428 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: he never got out of his crib in three years. 429 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: The other the other kids left, you know early they 430 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: got they climbed out of the crib. River just liked 431 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: his crib. You just chilled in there, and so all 432 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: you ever had was that crib. And we had a playroom, 433 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 1: so all the kids toys and stuff were in the playroom. 434 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: They were only really ever in their room if they 435 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: were sleeping. So whereas some people that it was really 436 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: hard to take down their room. If you if you 437 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: lose somebody, you know, you want to see all their stuff. 438 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: And for some reason, it just wasn't as hard for me. 439 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: I think for one, because he shared it with Lincoln too, 440 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: because they were never in there, so it was hard 441 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: to take the crib down. That was a really hard 442 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: day when we moved. You know, I cried and the 443 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: kids cried, and so that was really hard. But and 444 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: it's now in our bus driver's house, my bus driver Bull, 445 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: who you guys have seen on the Smiths. Him and 446 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: his wife are having a baby in March, and so 447 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: Bull has that crib and they've set it up in 448 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: their baby boy's room and so he always talks about 449 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: it as River's crib and it's really special and it 450 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: means a lot to me. Yeah, he showed me a 451 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 1: picture on the bus the other day of the room 452 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: set up in the cribs and you know, along the wall, 453 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: and so all three babies had that crib too. There's 454 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: like little teeth marks from them biting it and stuff. 455 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: But to answer your question about stuff, when we when 456 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: we moved. Granger's been really good about helping me that 457 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: things are just things and that if they're if they're 458 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: very important, take a photo of them or you know, 459 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,360 Speaker 1: but you can't take them with you when when we're gone. 460 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: So we're very into donating things that we don't need anymore. 461 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: We're trying to get rid of clutter. We're trying to purge. 462 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: So I have a lot of his special his special 463 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: things that he always had, and so I have those. 464 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: We have those in this house, and his blanket, you know, 465 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: little things that were super special.

Yeah, yeah, Bare Mean Blue Jeans 489 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: is another special one, Yeah, that we were in together. 490 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: But I also have a lot of other family in there. 491 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: My grandmother who is ninety four, are about to be 492 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: ninety four, and she's actually kind of sick, pretty sick 493 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: right now. She just got a pacemaker put in. But 494 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: she's my only grandmother I have left and out of 495 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: both of us, and the kid's only great grandmother and 496 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: parent grandparent at all. So she's sick and she's in 497 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: very mean blue jeans, and so that video is special 498 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: for that reason. But it's also really special. I had 499 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: just lost my dad when we filmed that, and it 500 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: was kind of part of the inspiration for the video itself. 501 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: And so I mean, it's crazy looking back that that 502 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: video is has me driving in my truck, which I 503 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: still have now, and I'm going to the church and 504 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: the cemetery where Rivers buried now And we shot that 505 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 1: five years ago. So it was a lot of foreshadowing 506 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: in that music video. And that's really special and that 507 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: would probably be a kind of a neat reaction video 508 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: that we should do one day and Tyler and everybody 509 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: all thea. Can the kids sing like a granger? Do 510 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: the kids have good voices? I hope not. I think 511 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: think being in music business is kind of a curse, 512 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: and it's like a blessing, a huge blessing and a 513 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: huge curse, and I don't want I honestly, I worry 514 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: about my children being in it because of as hard 515 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: as it is on your heart and on your spirit 516 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: and on your soul, and it's so fulfilling and all 517 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: of those three things also, but it takes a long 518 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: time to realize that fulfillment. It takes a lot of 519 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: years to realize that kind of fulfillment. And in the meantime, 520 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of heartbreak that I just can't imagine 521 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: my kids going through. That doesn't have anything to do 522 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: with them being able to sing. And I think sing 523 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: sings a lot, love and sings a lot. And didn't 524 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: you just say it took her eight years to get pitched. 525 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: She just got her pitch. Yeah, And Lincoln doesn't sing 526 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: that much. He kind of dances more. Do we ever 527 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: go out in public or are they're too many fans? Yeah? 528 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: Hecky go on, Punkywhere well do you think I am? Luck? Bryan? 529 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: We don't get I got stopped a target the other 530 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: day and some lady said I know you, and I 531 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: said you do and we just stopped and talked and 532 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: she we gave each other hugs. And it happens. He 533 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: gets recognized a lot more than I do. But I 534 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: love when people come and say, hi, Hi, your popularity 535 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: is skyrocketing. It's crazy, like you're people think people just 536 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: love you. And I mean a lot of times people 537 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: are like, is your wife around? But that's great? No, 538 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: And occasionally, like if we got to dinner or something, 539 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: people are very kind and they'll wait till after we're 540 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: done eating and then they'll they'll come say hih as 541 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: we're leaving or something. But we don't ever get like 542 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: bombarded or anything. It's no, it's very sweet, very sweet, 543 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: and people are very respectful of the kids and and 544 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: don't really want to bother us if we're busy eating 545 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: or something like that. Will we keep the Smith's intro 546 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: or will we eventually change it? Yeah, eventually it's gonna 547 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: it's just going to change. It's gonna be really hard. 548 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. And actually that video we we that 549 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: intro we threw together and you can still tell London's 550 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: next really hurt. Like the one of the very first 551 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: videos we did was when she got hurt skiing or 552 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: she got that virus in her little neck. She's walking 553 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: up to the camera and I always was gonna have 554 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: us redo it, and we just never got around to 555 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: redoing it. So and now it's like we can't redo 556 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: it because River's in it, and maybe we'll always have 557 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: to keep it at the end or something. It's like 558 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: we got to keep it. Yeah. We mentioned Brian kimball editing. 559 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: He's the one that built that intro back in like 560 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: April or May. The kids didn't want to do it. 561 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: They didn't want to get dressed. They were like fighting. 562 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: Typical day, typical typical kid day. What was your first 563 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: job you or me? Both? Mine was I worked for 564 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: a paint contractor that was also my English teacher in 565 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: junior high and so I would go paint houses. But 566 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: when I first started, I was just the taper. I 567 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: would just tape. He'd put me in a room and say, 568 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: all right, take these windows so we could paint, and 569 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 1: it is ten minutes. So he would give me a time, 570 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: so I just because I was getting paid by the hour, 571 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: so he would just call out a time. So I'd 572 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: watch my watch and tape for a long time. I taped. 573 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: That's what I did. I taped. But we would start 574 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: about seven am, and about ten am we'd go to 575 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: Taco Cabana or somebody would go to Taco Cabana for 576 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: us and get tortillas and salsa, and it was amazing. 577 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: We'd sit out because it was usually the summer when 578 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: we were working and when I wasn't playing football and 579 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: he wasn't teaching English, and we'd get it, go out 580 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: and sit in the in the underneath the shade of 581 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: a tree and roll those tortillas and dip them in salsa, 582 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: and that was our ten o'clock snack. It was amazing that. 583 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: That was amazing, and sorry I learned. I learned Keith 584 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: Whitley during those those years, and to this day, Keith 585 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: Whitley is one of my all time favorite country singers 586 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: and the Keith Whitley greatest hits it's the black and 587 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: white album cover. We would just listen to that on repeat. 588 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: Every song is good and it really changed my life. 589 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: While I was taping, it's not as exciting as that. 590 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: I just wanted a car. So I walked in Fort Worth, 591 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: in White Settlement, where I grew up. I walked to 592 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: this little grill, which was pretty far now that I 593 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: think about it. I walked all the way there to 594 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: fill out an application and I worked at this little 595 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: grill and they had the best food. I was fifteen 596 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: years old, and then I remember, I think they didn't 597 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: know I was fifteen, and it was like child labor laws. 598 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: I was supposed to be sixteen. I didn't lie or 599 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: anything on my application, but they had to cut my 600 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: hours back because they couldn't work me so many hours. 601 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: But I worked in the drive through line of that place, 602 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: and I worked waiting tables, and I think every person 603 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: should wait tables at some point in their lives because 604 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 1: you have to know what it's like to be a 605 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: server and a waiter and be kind to your servers. 606 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: You know, some days they're having hard days and bad days, 607 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: or things are getting mixed up in the kitchen. But 608 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: you can always tell a lot by somebody about how 609 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,959 Speaker 1: they treat their server. Yeah, treat a waiter, how they 610 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: treat servers, and how they treat dogs. I could learn 611 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: a lot about it. If you don't know somebody really well, 612 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: just take them to lunch and see how they truth 613 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: the waiter and then introduce them to your dog. That's 614 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: good advice. My dad used to tell me that have 615 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: you ever considered doing an all acoustic album of all 616 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: like like your most popular songs. No, I have not. 617 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: I think they probably mean re record it just me 618 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: and my guitar, because I could easily I do all 619 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: my editing on my albums myself. I've been doing that 620 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: for years, and so I could easily go and edit 621 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: acoustic versions when I just get to just isolate the 622 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: vocals and acoustics. But you probably mean re recorded like 623 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: when you hear the different versions on the Smith's, when 624 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: you hear like that's why I love Dirt Roads and 625 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: it's just keyboards and vocals like stripped down. That's just 626 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: me building that so I could do any version of 627 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 1: any song you've ever heard me do. Ever, are like, man, 628 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: I would like to hear a stripped down version of 629 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: happens like that? Whatever? I have everything, So every time 630 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 1: you hear a version on the Smith's, that's just something 631 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: I've built. Is there more women's stuff coming to yee Apparel? Yes, 632 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: we have some stuff coming out in the spring, and 633 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: then I'm gonna keep kind of designing things every now 634 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: and then for women and kids, maybe every season or 635 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: every few months or something. So yes, there will be 636 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 1: more coming out soon. Yeah, it's actually awesome, awesome stuff 637 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: you showed me. I'm excited. Yeah, it's this is somethingye 638 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:38,320 Speaker 1: Apparel has missed for years now? Is her touch? Because 639 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: it's just been me and my two brothers, Tyler and Parker, 640 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 1: we've never really had a you know, obviously we haven't 641 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: had a good insight on women's apparel, but she showed 642 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: me the other day what you're gonna when is it springing? 643 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: Spring twenty twenty. But I'm not allowed to come up 644 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: with like a whole bunch, so we only get to 645 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: get to pick like two or three, maybe four items 646 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: per season. But it's still still have a bunch of ideas, 647 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: and I'm bring back some regular women's baseball cats, not 648 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: like the trucker hats and tank tops and leggings and 649 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: jean jackets and all kinds of fun stuff. So that 650 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: brings another point up, because I need to say about 651 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: EE Apparel, think of thank you to everyone who has 652 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 1: ever bought something from EE Apparel and supported that. It's 653 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: really difficult. And those of you that own small businesses, 654 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: family runs small businesses will understand that it's taken us 655 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: a long time to kind of realize financially how to 656 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:37,760 Speaker 1: do it. Because we've tried to kind of make everybody 657 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: happy and keep a bunch of sizes in stock so 658 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 1: that you can go and order a certain shirt and 659 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: get a large and there it is and shipwret to you. 660 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: But it's so expensive to keep that stuff, to keep 661 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: the inventory on the shelves of the EE Farm. Recently, 662 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 1: we've kind of had to let that go and just say, hey, 663 00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna stick with with a few core you know, 664 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: the the fundamental items of EE apparel, will keep that 665 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,320 Speaker 1: in stock. But the anytime we do like a spring 666 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: launch or a fall lunch or a Black Friday launch, 667 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna just we're gonna sell out of that stuff. 668 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: So you got to get it. And I don't want 669 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 1: you guys to feel upset that you waited and then 670 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: went to go order something and it's out of stock. 671 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: It it just we could make a certain amount of 672 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: money on eu peril and then when it's time to 673 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: get new hoodies or new t shirts, guess what we 674 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 1: spend the exact amount, and guess we have left nothing. 675 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,800 Speaker 1: So we're trying to we're trying to learn that and 676 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: kind of navigate that part of this business. And part 677 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: of that is going to be when we do a 678 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: spring launch or a fall lunch or whatever, it's gonna 679 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: sell out in a couple of weeks, and we're just 680 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: gonna be okay with that. And so that's gonna that's 681 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 1: why she's saying we couldn't do everything when she had 682 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: all these ideas like those are amazing. Now let's pick 683 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: this many so that doesn't cost a guazilian amount of 684 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 1: money to make all these and small, medium, large, ex large, 685 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: double X, triple X and keep them in stock. Let's 686 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: just do that. Yeah, that'd be good. It'll keep it 687 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 1: fresh for you guys to and you guys can grab 688 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,719 Speaker 1: new stuff all the time. Yeah. How did you guys 689 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: come up with your affirmations for the kids? So if 690 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: you guys have seen us do that in the car, 691 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: that kind of just started. I remember, I'm sure you've 692 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: seen it on YouTube. There's that little girl and she's 693 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: standing on the on the bathroom counter and she's like, 694 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: I am smart, I am awesome, I am all this 695 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: and I just thought it was adorable. So we don't 696 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: say the same thing every day. We change it up 697 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: depending on their mood or whatever they have going on 698 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: that day, and we just you just make it up 699 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 1: as you go. Yeah, and it just gives the kids 700 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,359 Speaker 1: a little boost before they go to school. This came 701 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 1: from did you say?

If I can remember all these links. 709 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: It has a picture of him and I and it's 710 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: like backwharre it all started, backward, all started, I think, 711 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: or back where I proposed or where we got engaged, 712 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 1: something like that. But we only dated for seven months, 713 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,760 Speaker 1: not even dated. We knew each other for seven months 714 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 1: before I bought the ring. No she didn't. No, I didn't. 715 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: She didn't improve it, she didn't even know it exists. 716 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 1: I didn't help it.
