WEBVTT - Best Bits (Just The Bits) with Morgan: PART 2 0:00:01.440 --> 0:00:05.200 It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan Number two. 0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:08.760 What is up, y'all? Happy weekend. I'm so excited to 0:00:08.760 --> 0:00:10.920 be hanging out with y'all. In case you don't know, 0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:13.480 it's Morgan here and we are breaking down some of 0:00:13.480 --> 0:00:16.040 the segments from the show this week. And this part 0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:18.920 is where we share all the bits and the actual 0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:21.800 things that happened. But Part one is actually my favorite 0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:23.759 part of doing this podcast. It's where I bring on 0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:25.720 a show member and we talk about a whole lot 0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:28.280 of things. And this weekend I brought on Lunchbox. Not 0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:30.680 only did I quiz him on emojis that he should 0:00:30.720 --> 0:00:33.239 know the actual meanings of, but I also shared some 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:35.800 dating stuff with him and he could not believe that 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.239 I stopped talking to this guy on a dating app 0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:40.080 because of something he said. He just was like, there's 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:42.520 no way. And he also had to do some math 0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:44.680 and that didn't go over very well either. So make 0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:47.000 sure to check out Part one of Best Bits. I 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:49.120 promise it'll be your favorite. Part two. One of our 0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:51.800 listeners is a behavior therapist and she called into the 0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:54.880 show because she wanted to give some perspective on Lunchbox 0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:59.000 and hopefully convinced Bobby to do a contract with Lunchbox 0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:01.280 to make him a nicer human being. Yeah, it was 0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:04.480 a whole thing, and that basically whenever great on our 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:08.240 Facebook page as far as engagement, everybody was having a 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.440 lot of opinions on the matter. But you can hear 0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:12.919 the phone call that happened that sparked this whole conversation 0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:16.440 right here. Number seven on phone now is Christoph who 0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:21.560 is a behavioral analyst. Hi Christa, good morning, Hi, good morey. 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:25.039 Hey what is a behavioral analysts? Like? What do you do? Specifically? 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:32.120 I primarily work with kids with autism or other disabilities 0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:39.160 down syndrome, oppositional defiance disorder, but especially we create contingencies 0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:45.000 to increase appropriate behaviors, decrease inappropriate behaviors, and build skills 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:47.400 alongside that. I could do some of that here, increase 0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:53.200 having these guys increase appropriate, decrease inappropriate for us. Yeah, Christa, 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:54.920 you hear of the show. What would you like to 0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:58.080 comment about when you hear it as a behavioral analyst? Well, 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:01.360 I think every day when I'm listening the Lunchbox would 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:05.280 probably benefit from some sort of a behavior contract to 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:09.480 help increase some of the appropriate behaviors would like to 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:12.880 see or decrease some of the negative statements. So a 0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:15.680 contract would be like a literal contract where he signs 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:18.720 an agreement that says, if I'm a jerk, like for example, 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:21.519 Abby who loved to sing, she's not trying to really 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.760 make it as a same amount, but he's rude to her. 0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:25.760 He's like, you'll never make it you. But if he 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:27.800 does something like that, we have a contract where he 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:30.120 has to like pay me five bucks or something something 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.399 like that, where there's a penalty. So the first thing 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:34.960 we like to focus on is the reinforcement of the 0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:38.079 appropriate behaviors. So what if there are none of those yet? 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:40.480 Then he gets nothing? Okay, But what makes her the 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:45.960 right the sayer of what's right? Well, a degree doesn't 0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:47.760 tell you what's right and wrong. Everybody has a different 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:49.960 opinion what's right and wrong. Because she says it's right 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:52.480 doesn't mean it's right that it's a matter of opinion. 0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:56.520 Her job is nothing but opinions. However, a behavior contract 0:02:56.639 --> 0:03:00.640 is much more effective when both parties, the one giving 0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.280 the reinforcement and the lunchbox would be the client in 0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:09.280 this situation, are in agreement of So what could I 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.360 put as a reward for him? I'm anxious. I mean 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.760 I'm eager, anxious to do it now. I'm like, let's 0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:15.359 go to stroll. This could be cool. Yeah, Like, what's 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.400 a reward I could put for him in this contract? Well? 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.800 What is Lunchbox's primary reinforcement? I think we all know 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:26.240 what that money? Ticket? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, financial? Yeah, money. 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:30.760 He could spend the wheel, he could get something in return. 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:32.920 I mean, he's got listeners out here buying him two 0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:36.520 hundred dollar watches. I'm sure we could figure something out. Well, No, 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:38.360 you tried to be an angel on a tree, a 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.880 charity tree at Christmas, and so I'm on bottom former. No, no, no, 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:43.600 they didn't a listener, did right, big teamer? Yeah, I 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:45.840 hear you. Okay, So what if we did this? If 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:48.120 can you do it per day? Let's say Lunchbox is 0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:50.120 a good day where he does, he gets more dings 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:51.760 and ants, and then he gets to spend the well 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:53.520 at the end of the day. Does that work? Can 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:55.760 you do it like macro instead of micro a dollar 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.280 every time? Could you do it like that? Absolutely? And 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:00.120 I mean you could do two parts of it. You 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.480 could have the reinforcement part where he gets money or 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:07.280 spin if he does something good that we've all identified, 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:11.880 you know, and explicitly described what that goal is. But 0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:14.600 then you could do a response cost also, so if 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:18.080 he has a negative statement or a rude statement, he 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.640 could lose the opportunity. So I like it. We'll draw 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:25.560 this up. So, what though, would be a punishment that 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:27.839 we could do for an adult man who doesn't have 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.600 to listen to her talk for longer. We'll just put 0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.920 you all that would be negative, right, that'd go down 0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:35.200 the negative? Yeah, go ahead. I'm sorry, Christa. Well, I 0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:37.600 mean I think I would like lunch's inbox and our 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:41.440 lunchbox's input. He would he be interested in earning money 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.640 for appropriate behaviors? No, no, but my you know she's 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:46.160 asking you a question. Yeah, I would love that, but 0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:50.760 you don't determine what my behavior is appropriate. Would a contract, 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:52.960 you would agree, but you would agree to the terms 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.120 of the contract. We're not forcing anything on you. We 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:58.320 together would go, we all agree. If you do this, 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.360 you're rewarded. If you do this, you're punished. Like if 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:03.760 I give my opinions, I'm rewarded. If I don't give 0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:07.520 my opinions, I'm a punishment Kristad that is not seen 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.839 as unethical, like can we lock them in something that'd 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:15.400 be cool with snakes. I mean, you guys could come 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.279 up with whatever you want. You could spind the wheel 0:05:17.400 --> 0:05:20.960 of you know, high items. You could you could come 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:25.840 up with the next a second wheel negative consequence, Yes, 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:31.200 the Bizarro wheel where it's all bad stuff spicy stuff. Wow, okay, 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:33.320 I Hey, Krista, thank you very much for this call. 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:35.600 This has has really put a lot of thoughts in 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:37.920 the old brainer. I'm thinking about some stuff. Maybe a 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.080 couple days lunchbocks will address the contract yer. I'll write 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:41.200 something up. If you like it, we'll agree to it. 0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:42.760 If not, we'll move on. I will check it out, 0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:45.320 see if my pen has any ink in it. Hey, 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.360 we'll do docu sign. All right, Christa, thank you really 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:49.680 appreciate you listen to the show. I hope you have 0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:51.680 an awesome day. And I the line of work you're in, 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:53.280 it takes somebody with a special heart to do that, 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:55.880 so we also appreciate you doing that as well. Of course, 0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:59.479 Love you guys. All right by Christe. It's the best 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:04.200 bits up the week with Morgan Number two Taylor Hicks 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:06.360 stop by the studio this week. And you may remember 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:09.400 him from winning American Idol back in two thousand and six, 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:11.599 and Bobby was a huge fan of him then and 0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:14.880 still is today, and so he was totally geeking out 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:16.920 during this interview and it was super fun to watch 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:19.400 not only the conversation that happened, but also hear about 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:22.200 what Taylor's been up to post American Idol. And he 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:25.240 also performed his new song Porch Swing, which you won't 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:26.599 get to hear on the podcast, but you can go 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:29.960 watch it at Bobby Bones dot com number six. Waiting 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:32.320 since two thousand and six to do this next interview, 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.640 that's a long time. I've been a Taylor Hicks fan 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:40.120 and cement that I saw his pretty facing, oh abnormally 0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:43.719 prettymature gray hair, and I'm asking about that like he 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:46.480 was in his twenties, he was already gray on American 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.560 Idol way back in the day. But man, it's soul patrol. 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:51.240 Like I was in the group, I voted for him. 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:53.640 But the thing about Taylor Hicks is like way back 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:55.200 in the day, he discovered he had perfect pitch. When 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:57.359 he was able to recognize the pitches of random things 0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:01.239 like a car, driving by. We'll get into that hopefully 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:03.640 in a second. He's such a good singer. He's got 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:13.120 this new song called port Swing. So you guys can 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:15.880 you can leave if you want. It's just a moment, Taylor, Taylor, 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:17.760 not let you be.

Let me 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:39.840 say this about Taylor Hicks. And I was obsessed for 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:42.320 like five years. I was gonna say obsessed as the word.

I grew up in Arkansas and you're 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:57.960 very soulful. I remember, did you do an otist writing song? Yeah? Yep, 0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:00.880 and then you did I should I actually I know 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.960 all of it. You did a queen's song, but there 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.120 was a nut did you do a Sam cook Oh 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.000 did you Sam Cooks? I did?

And I just have really 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:43.080 just been waiting on a really beautiful moment in time. 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.720 And I get woken up by all of these amazing 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:51.280 texts right before Christmas, and Bobby's talking about being a 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.480 fan of you know, of me, and uh, the next 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:57.360 thing I know, within fifteen minutes, I mean, this is 0:08:57.400 --> 0:08:59.319 like eight o'clock in the morning, and I'm like, oh, hell, 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:02.199 what did I do?

So it was a completely organic thing that's happened. 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.200 And I can't thank you all enough for for making 0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:20.199 that happen for me. I really mean that. Well, that's 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.120 really cool. Taylor Hicks is here, then let's just do 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:23.360 this because I have a lot to talk about, but 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:25.120 I would like to hear this song. So this is 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.440 a new song called Porch Swing. Yeah, okay, I haven't 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:31.839 heard it yet. Yeah, it's great to make sure. It 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:36.000 was actually Judge Jason Deer and Jennifer Wayne and I 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.320 wrote it probably about eight or nine years ago, and 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:42.880 we just thought about this really iconic centerpiece of someone's 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.920 household all over the country, and I was like a 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:47.800 porch swing because I grew up on a porch swing. 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:50.760 So there's just a lot of things that happened around 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:54.440 that particular centerpiece. And uh, this one's about love and 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.080 a porch swing. So jen Wayne dear friend of mine 0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:59.240 as well, great writer who's written a bunch of songs 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.160 in Runaway June as well as a professional tennis players. 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:03.920 You know that absolutely. Okay, Well I don't know anything. 0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:06.600 He's got it all covered. Then here he is with 0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:11.320 his new song Porch Swing. Here is Taylor Hicks.

Um, 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.120 I've got an Armed Forces Entertainment to where I'm doing 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:14.280 over in the Middle East and market that's crazy, which 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:19.600 I'm really excited about.

You know, I've done I've done 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:28.439 some USO stuff, but the Armed Forces Entertainment also is 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:32.520 a wonderful organization that puts artists and entertainers on the 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:35.280 road to to entertain the troops. And you get an 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:40.960 Instagram picture in a bulletproof vest, and that's always I 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:42.560 just don't want it. It's like holding up a fish 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:44.120 that you didn't catch. I never wanted to put one 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:45.439 on and take a picture and if I wasn't really 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:48.240 using it.

So cool? 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:23.840 That's only what I texted, because sometimes you know, if 0:14:23.840 --> 0:14:25.160 you wrote a song a long time ago, maybe you're 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:29.520 not cool anymore. Yeah, she said, she said, She said 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:31.960 that she loves you and this song port Swing is 0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:35.400 really good. Do you remember writing it? Yes?

Are you 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:51.040 playing golf or something? Right now? I'm going to rite 0:14:52.080 --> 0:14:56.560 the life of gen Wayne. What's writing music? It's so 0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:58.600 annoying about her that she can sing and she's like 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:02.880 a like a plu athlete like everything. It's so and 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:05.600 that's so annoying. That's how you get on the Phone's 0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:08.280 so annoying. Um, anyway, what's here with Taylor?

Um. 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:35.840 I I assume you don't know much about me, but 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:37.720 I worked on American Idol for four years. I worked 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:40.240 as the main like on camera mentor and taught him 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.520 or whatever you do on that show. You know, I 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.640 record ten hours and they use twenty minute, no, twenty 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:46.000 seconds of it, right, you know, this is kind of 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:49.320 how it worked over there. Um, So do people because 0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:50.640 people will come up to me and be like, I 0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:53.760 know you from somewhere because I'm just randomly on things, 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:56.640 I'm like, I know you, and it's weird to go 0:15:57.120 --> 0:15:59.160 you probably know me from this. Do you get there 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.160 with people? It may be this, it could be the show, 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.880 the food show, it could be Do people come up 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:06.560 to you and not know where they know you, but 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:09.480 they know you and they're like, are you my mailman? 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:12.080 Does that ever happen. Oh yeah, And how do you 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.200 handle that if somebody goes, I know you from somewhere, 0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:17.400 what do you say? Well, sometimes you have fun with 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:21.000 it and you're like, I don't know, you know, what 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.080 what do you think? And so I mean And then 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:26.960 finally usually I was on idol and they're like, oh yeah, 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.040 yeah they said that to me. They're like, oh, were 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:34.040 you on Judge Judy? No, I wasn't. I guess it 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:35.680 wasn't me. You were thinking about once I want to 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:37.240 get ice cream into place And she was like she 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:39.360 pulled up her phone and I Sawry Google me and 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:41.920 she was like, no, that's not him, and you should 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:43.480 put the phone down. Real It was like a really 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:46.200 good professional picture. I guess it looks like crap that day. Look, 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:50.320 Taylor Hicks is here. Um, you're so good that harmonica 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:53.160 that you have? What what? What key is that? Listen 0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:56.040 the song e? I have an E and then I've 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:59.200 got probably twenty different keys they got from Blues Traveler. 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:03.000 He ain'ty good? Love him? Yeah, he's different stylistically. He 0:17:03.400 --> 0:17:07.600 probably one of the more stylistic harmonica players in the world. Um, 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:12.440 he's a good friend and uh, oh, you know him. Yeah. Yeah, 0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:14.080 I was just asking as harmonica playing because he wears 0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:15.560 the vest all the harmonicas, and do you have one 0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:17.480 of those great and a great writer too. I mean, 0:17:17.560 --> 0:17:19.359 let's not Forgod. I mean, you know he wrote the 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:23.040 Hook and you know some of those really iconic hits 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:26.600 you know of the early nineties. I was wanted to 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:28.480 play harmonica, Taylor. I'm gonna tell you the little story 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:30.920 about me playing harmonica. I always wanted to play in Eddie, 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.479 who is the other half of my comedy duo, our 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:34.919 comedy due the Raging Idiots. He goes, so you can 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:36.800 play hermonica. I said, no, I can't, because they're good. 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:38.399 He goes, no, no no, no, no, here's the easy way 0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:40.239 that they don't do because they're good, but you can 0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:42.840 do because you're crappy. So we I think we played. 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:45.480 What song? Did we play? It was like an old 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:47.800 eighty was it? That's what I like about you. Yeah, 0:17:48.320 --> 0:17:49.919 really know how to do. So he just gave me 0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:51.520 the harmonica in the key and he goes just blowing 0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:52.920 and out during the key and it'll match the song 0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:54.840 completely and everybody'll think your harmonica player. And I was like, 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:56.520 all right, let's give it a running. We're on stage 0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:59.360 and finally like five thousand people and I've never played 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.600 harmonica in my life except for just going that right 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:05.639 with harmonica, and so the whole song isn't whatever key 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:07.800 it was in Eddie hands me Harmonica goes trust me 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:10.600 on this, and there's the harmonica part in that song 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:14.080 where so I'm just not really I'm having like a 0:18:14.080 --> 0:18:15.520 seizure or something up there because I'm just I don't 0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:16.919 even know how to breathe. And I put the harmonica 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:18.479 lay in the crowds going nuts because they think I'll 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:20.679 just play. I just rocked the harmonica and I was like, 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:23.159 thank you, And I retired that day playing harmonica one 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:27.080 to Oh but that's not real. Well that's not real harmonica. 0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:29.400 Like where did you start? When did you start playing harmonica? 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.399 M I probably I started playing when I was about 0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.359 fourteen or fifteen, But interestingly enough, I was I was 0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:39.440 an only child, and I bought my first harmonica at 0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:43.440 the best summer flea market in Alabama. I would not 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:47.080 suggest buying your first harmonica a flea market. By the way, 0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:49.680 what did you catch what disease going? I can't say. 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:51.919 I'm not going to displose that that's for the next single, 0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:55.919 but UM the uh. So I ended up actually playing 0:18:56.040 --> 0:19:00.480 off of UM very kind of non traditional sounds. So 0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:03.560 I would like go by behind the air conditioner and 0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:06.439 I would find the key that the air conditioner was in, 0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:09.199 and I would play off of the air conditioner so 0:19:09.280 --> 0:19:12.240 that the air conditioner was was like, oh you know, 0:19:12.320 --> 0:19:15.359 then there wasn't anybody around to play music, So I 0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:21.200 would play off of air conditioners, airplanes, eighteen wheeler rigs 0:19:21.240 --> 0:19:23.359 that would go down the road. How are you hearing keys? Though? 0:19:23.359 --> 0:19:25.159 Where did you learn music or didn'taturally come to you? 0:19:25.320 --> 0:19:27.159 You know, I think it's just, you know, it's an 0:19:27.240 --> 0:19:29.720
