Speaker 1: It's time for the Bobby Bones post show. Here's your host,
Speaker 1: Bobby Bone. Hello everybody. I'd like to start with a
Speaker 1: couple of things from Morgan number two, um, a couple
Speaker 1: of notes that she's sent me. The first dish thinks
Speaker 1: we need to have a special day here at the studio,
Speaker 1: and I'll let you take it from there. Morgan, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think we need to have a cleaning day because
Speaker 1: my clean anxiety is like going through the roof. The
Speaker 1: guys think it's a locker room. There's like clothes all
Speaker 1: behind tier that they leave every day. We've got like
Speaker 1: papers and sticky notes all over between here and the glassroom.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm a little embarrassed when people come in
Speaker 1: cleaning or like tidying both both. Yeah. Well, Amy, last
Speaker 1: time we checked you all kinds of stuff that was
Speaker 1: lunchbox that was a lunchbox hater. And I had already
Speaker 1: cleaned out all the paper. And what are you doing?
Speaker 1: You're looking I don't look under your Yeah you can
Speaker 1: come look under here. It's tidy. I cleaned out all
Speaker 1: the paper that you were procusing me up accusing it
Speaker 1: was there, Yeah, but not when you accused it was
Speaker 1: already gone. Also, Morgan is not wrong, And I think
Speaker 1: that there's been times where I'm like, I just need
Speaker 1: to we should come up here on like a Saturday
Speaker 1: and like wipe things down and clad like the green
Speaker 1: room where the guests come in. I just yeah, you
Speaker 1: do it today. No, but like I need you guys
Speaker 1: to take your clothes home, like this is not a
Speaker 1: locker room to them. It might be. I think they
Speaker 1: just treat this like they treat their house, honestly correct.
Speaker 1: Our house looks like this, okay, but you don't live
Speaker 1: with us, so we have different rules in this house. Sorry, Amy,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Um? Okay? So instead of having
Speaker 1: a clean day, Morgan, what would you like to say
Speaker 1: to whomever that they could do a little bit better?
Speaker 1: I think we just need to keep our spaces. This
Speaker 1: is a shared working space, and when it's a shared
Speaker 1: working space, we have to keep it clean. Like when
Speaker 1: things are done for the day, pick it up, clean
Speaker 1: it up before you go home, and then every day
Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about this long and there's
Speaker 1: there's fifty shirts here that you have to bring home.
Speaker 1: There's just maybe one or whatever. So every day just
Speaker 1: clean it up a little bit before you head home.
Speaker 1: And when you say worry about it, I don't worry
Speaker 1: about it. Can you just be ten percent better? Who
Speaker 1: are you talking to you? Everyone? Yeah? Everyone? And I
Speaker 1: need to be too. Like if everybody can be slightly better,
Speaker 1: I think it'll be a cleaning. This is not your home, Okay, right, okay,
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm here longer than I'm at home. Book Man,
Speaker 1: we know and that we have theories. And another thing
Speaker 1: Morgan wants to bring up is about the Facebook page.
Speaker 1: Because Morgan her job never stops because she's she runs
Speaker 1: all of our social media, amongst other things. But in
Speaker 1: regards to the Facebook page, what would you like to
Speaker 1: say to our listeners? I mean listen. I don't ever
Speaker 1: like get our page in on politics, and this is
Speaker 1: not even political. But I posted a summary statement of
Speaker 1: like a blog that shared President Biden's State of the Union.
Speaker 1: There are very few things I share about the news.
Speaker 1: I try to keep it very light, but like, that's
Speaker 1: something that affects all of us, so it's important news.
Speaker 1: Do you feel like people say, hey, you should put
Speaker 1: news up there more? Yes, So you get people saying, hey,
Speaker 1: put more news up, and then you put up something
Speaker 1: without any angle, meaning you could have put it up
Speaker 1: for people to go, hey, hey he did good or
Speaker 1: he did bad. Yes, you didn't put it up going
Speaker 1: he did this. You just said here is something, here's information,
Speaker 1: here's what was said. Got it? Yes, got it? And like, well,
Speaker 1: I'll post stories about all of us on the show,
Speaker 1: and they'll be like, who cares, why can't you share something? Okay, Fine,
Speaker 1: well let me share some news for you. Okay, I
Speaker 1: do that, and they're like, don't get political. It's not political.
Speaker 1: To share a news story without bias. That is not political.
Speaker 1: It's just simply sharing news. If I were to be political,
Speaker 1: i'd say, hey this guy sucks or hey he's great.
Speaker 1: That's a that's a political opinion, right, I'm just wanting
Speaker 1: to share that we're not getting political on the show
Speaker 1: by sharing news. Okay, I agree with you, Yeah I do.
Speaker 1: If you put up anybody that is somewhat political, people
Speaker 1: are going to start screaming. They just like see Biden's
Speaker 1: face and they're like, oh, it's like literally, what's happening.
Speaker 1: He's the president of the United States. So what are
Speaker 1: you going to do? So, now where do you stand?
Speaker 1: You're going to continue? Would you do it again, yes,
Speaker 1: because it's still news. Like it's very little, Like I
Speaker 1: every time a new president gets elected, I'll post about that.
Speaker 1: That's news. It's a very big deal. Impacts all of us, right,
Speaker 1: and state of the Union impacts all of us. So
Speaker 1: I shared it. It's not very often I share it.
Speaker 1: So if I share news, I'm not doing it to
Speaker 1: make you angry. Morgan is going to kill one of
Speaker 1: these people. She's just gonna find him where they live
Speaker 1: and going to go to their house. I feel bad
Speaker 1: for her because I know she has to live over
Speaker 1: in that space and she has to see this stuff,
Speaker 1: and it is very, very, very negative. I don't I
Speaker 1: on the page go over there maybe twice a year
Speaker 1: because it's brutal, and I'm starting to go less and
Speaker 1: less to the team page because it's starting get a
Speaker 1: little MESSI over there. I think they're trying to clean
Speaker 1: it up, and I hope they do, and I really
Speaker 1: enjoyed my time over there, But I think Facebook, maybe
Speaker 1: you just can't. It just goes to the dark side. Eventually.
Speaker 1: It is a bad place. It is funny when they
Speaker 1: comment who cares at like a personal story? It's Bobby's
Speaker 1: fantasizing this art. Who cares like we have to talk
Speaker 1: about something, we have to fill five hours of content
Speaker 1: and some people do Okay Morgan, thank you, Yes, so
Speaker 1: clean her studio and people on Facebook be nice or
Speaker 1: two things that are probably never gonna happen. It's just
Speaker 1: some PSAs I'm trying to put out in the universe.
Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West to have an informal custody
Speaker 1: arrangement due to kanye schedule and travel. It's expected that
Speaker 1: Kim will get full custody of the kids and the
Speaker 1: Kanye will be allowed to see them whenever he wants.
Speaker 1: So interesting interesting that the judge granted her yesterday her
Speaker 1: freedom basically yes, read it before where it's like, you're
Speaker 1: no longer married to Kanye West, You're now single and
Speaker 1: so did she drop West? It's just Kim Kardashian again,
Speaker 1: I think so yeah, so not that. I here's the
Speaker 1: thing about Kanye. I don't know what it is. I
Speaker 1: love him, I don't you know, I do. He's probably
Speaker 1: got some issues upstairs. Probably, I think he's admitted to that.
Speaker 1: I am not going to I'm just gonna say, probably
Speaker 1: has some stuff going on that I don't understand or
Speaker 1: no um and he's always wacky and he does things
Speaker 1: and sometimes I'm like, well, I don't agree with that,
Speaker 1: but that also, I don't have to agree with something everybody.
Speaker 1: I don't have to agree with everything somebody does to
Speaker 1: like or not like someone, you know. And the weird
Speaker 1: thing too, isn't people gent just generally like Kanye, but
Speaker 1: him fighting Pete Davidson that makes people maybe not like
Speaker 1: Kanye becase Pete david is a pretty likable guy. But
Speaker 1: even then, I don't like pet Davison. Even then, I'm like,
Speaker 1: mys don't like Kanyevie. I don't know. I I like
Speaker 1: Kanye like Kanye still puts out music, Kanye does things
Speaker 1: differently Kanye. I don't know. I like Kanye even though
Speaker 1: he's nuts. But that's that situation that that story is
Speaker 1: from TMZ a polygamist. You guys know what that is, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're married to multiple people. Mary's triplets on the same day,
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, after they all proposed to him. A
Speaker 1: man proved that good things coming freeze when he married
Speaker 1: triplets all on the same day after they all reportedly
Speaker 1: proposed to him simultaneously. Photos of the marital quartet are
Speaker 1: currently blowing up online. That is a lot that's from
Speaker 1: New York Post. He's obliged to marry all them because
Speaker 1: they are triplets. I wonder how that truly works out,
Speaker 1: like an I want honest answer, like is it easy?
Speaker 1: Is it hard? Like? I bet? It has its difficulties
Speaker 1: and it's pretty awesome in a way. So it's just
Speaker 1: like any relationship I want to bring in. Hey, come on,
Speaker 1: come on up this microphone right here. You can move
Speaker 1: that chair. Yeah, let's talk to you for a second.
Speaker 1: Do you mind hopping on with us? Stand right there
Speaker 1: that microphone right there, or you can sit there for
Speaker 1: all whatever makes you feel good. M Paul. Now, Paul,
Speaker 1: hop on the microphones so we can hear you there. Paul,
Speaker 1: you own a lot of Sonics thirty one. Can you
Speaker 1: turn them up? Mike? So I get your mic going here.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions for you, Paul, an
Speaker 1: exclusive interview, Michael. Let me let me know when Paul
Speaker 1: is good. Um we as Mike is setting up his audio.
Speaker 1: Sonic is our studio sponsor. But Sonic is also my
Speaker 1: live sponsor, except they don't pay me to be my
Speaker 1: live sponsor. I just live very closely with Sonic. I'm
Speaker 1: at Sonic probably five times a week, just with no
Speaker 1: gift cards. By the way, Paul, I don't even want them.
Speaker 1: I can fix that. There we go. No, I don't
Speaker 1: even want them standing like that. I don't have a
Speaker 1: personal deal where I go to Sonic and they give
Speaker 1: me stuff free. I just love Sonic so much. But
Speaker 1: you own how many Sonics? Again, how in the world
Speaker 1: do you get into the Sonic business? Well, when I
Speaker 1: was sixteen years old, I started as a cook. So
Speaker 1: with Sam pardon Aro, I'm with today. You worked there?
Speaker 1: I worked there as a cook. Wow, so you're cooking
Speaker 1: at Sonic, and how do you make the first step
Speaker 1: from being a cook to do you get into management
Speaker 1: or do you manage a store? Yeah? I went. I
Speaker 1: went to the store with the intent of getting into
Speaker 1: management at sixteen and didn't want to go to college,
Speaker 1: and so I stuck around, got into management and stayed
Speaker 1: there in management about four or five years, and bought
Speaker 1: my first store when I was twenty four years old. Now,
Speaker 1: how do you buy a store? Were you? Did you
Speaker 1: grow up wealthy? No? Poor? Then? Okay, so how do
Speaker 1: you buy a store? At twenty four, if you're poor.
Speaker 1: The same guy with to Day as a partner, Doctor
Speaker 1: David Cooper told me when I was seventeen, I think
Speaker 1: you can do this, and if you want to stick
Speaker 1: around and buy a store, we'll put you in one.
Speaker 1: So he had faith in your faith in me and
Speaker 1: in faith in you as a person, but also as
Speaker 1: someone that he could make money with. Correct, So it
Speaker 1: wasn't just charity on his party. I was like, I
Speaker 1: see something in you. Wow, it's pretty cool. He was
Speaker 1: a full time NIS in Oklahoma City, which is where
Speaker 1: Sonic originated, Shawnee, Oklahoma, and in nineteen seventy nine when
Speaker 1: I started. By eighty four, we had bought into our store,
Speaker 1: and then he had several stores already, but I bought
Speaker 1: into my first one in Clarksville up Straight and then
Speaker 1: eventually moved down to Galaton, which you live now. Do
Speaker 1: you own them all around here? They're mostly in mill Tennessee.
Speaker 1: We have two in Alabama, one in Chattanooga. The rest
Speaker 1: of them were in the Nashville DMA. So the two
Speaker 1: that I go to most, there's one on Franklin Pike
Speaker 1: here in town. I go to that one to lie
Speaker 1: and the one I go to, probably more slightly now
Speaker 1: is the one brent Wood. But it's like it's called
Speaker 1: an uncircle, some circle. I don't know. The corporate office
Speaker 1: is right by it. Yeah you own that one. No? Yeah,
Speaker 1: a friend of mine, David Watson, he lives in brent Wood.
Speaker 1: He by one. You need to buy one. Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: no one around a long time too. Um. Okay, So
Speaker 1: you own all these sognics. Do you ever just show
Speaker 1: up and order some food and then go like, let's
Speaker 1: just see what happens. Oh yeah, all the time, undercover boss,
Speaker 1: But like for real, you ever found someone that does
Speaker 1: such a good job You're like, ooh, look at you.
Speaker 1: I am now the owner and you all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: I'm giving you a free signic or something like. Well
Speaker 1: to be on with you. The thirty one stores that
Speaker 1: we have, probably thirty of them started just like me. Really,
Speaker 1: I mean, my daughter, you're the daughter. She's my daughter.
Speaker 1: She worked for us in high school through college, came
Speaker 1: back to work, ran a store for us. Now she
Speaker 1: works in the office. But every manager we had pretty
Speaker 1: much started that, like audio. We brought a man as
Speaker 1: a cook or a car hop, they stayed, they worked
Speaker 1: their way up. Now they owned twenty five percent the store.
Speaker 1: You know, I tried to get in the sonic business.
Speaker 1: M there's a town that my wife is from right
Speaker 1: next to it in Oklahoma, and like yourself, there's a
Speaker 1: whole group of people. They own all the sonic areas. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, let me open one right here, you're
Speaker 1: not opening and they just they won't for some reason,
Speaker 1: we can't get to do it. We could talk to
Speaker 1: somebody trying, We've been talking, we got we had meetings
Speaker 1: and for some reason that they own the territory and
Speaker 1: there's not one opening there. But since they owned them all,
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, we don't know. Yeah, I'm just look
Speaker 1: at what do you when you look at my heart?
Speaker 1: You know, you see isnic logan. Oh I definitely hear that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm definitely hear that. Just trying to get in the business.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be like you. If I'm being honest,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be like you. So I have a question, Yeah,
Speaker 1: go ahead. What determines whether or not a Sonic is
Speaker 1: going to have a drive through or not? Just the
Speaker 1: Democrat where it's at the location, Like we've got of
Speaker 1: the thirty one we have I think we have seven
Speaker 1: drive throughs and Interstate close to Interstate or like Nissan
Speaker 1: Boulevard and Smyrna. The Nissan plans twenty four hours a day.
Speaker 1: We added a drive through there and went twenty four hours.
Speaker 1: So it depends on location where it's at. I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: I would get in business in one here with my friend. Here.
Speaker 1: Are there any more space? Are you gonna open any
Speaker 1: more intent? We're gonna open a few more. Let's go.
Speaker 1: I've been doing pretty good for myself the last few years.
Speaker 1: You got a little scratch and spend it this we
Speaker 1: can make it happen. Um, do you have any of
Speaker 1: equipment at your house? Like you can make yourself a
Speaker 1: Sonic burger at your home? No? No, do you steal
Speaker 1: condiments of your own? Oh? Yeah, yeah, that's what I
Speaker 1: would do. Full of office is full of condiments. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: let us say that we And again this wasn't part
Speaker 1: of any deal. They were just bringing stuff by. And
Speaker 1: I said to Scooba Steve, I would like to talk
Speaker 1: to the guy that owns all the sonics. He's a
Speaker 1: celebrity to me. Yeah, you know, we all have people
Speaker 1: that we think are celebrities in such a fragmented world
Speaker 1: of celebrity culture, but you are my sonic hero. Well,
Speaker 1: thank you well. But also, speaking of condiments, do y'all
Speaker 1: is there are employees supposed to abide by a condiment
Speaker 1: number rule? Like if someone says I'd like some ketchup?
Speaker 1: Is there a number like how many they're supposed to
Speaker 1: get them? Just a handful? Whatever you want? Wow? Interesting? Nice? Yeah,
Speaker 1: So I like a couple of things. The app has
Speaker 1: made my life so much easier because I ordered the
Speaker 1: Bobby Waters that I've named myself and I and I
Speaker 1: feel like I don't get the respect of it over there,
Speaker 1: but anyway, but Kaitlin really did it, but so I
Speaker 1: really shouldn't get that respect. The app makes it so
Speaker 1: much easier because I can order it and then I
Speaker 1: just go. I don't even push the button, I just go,
Speaker 1: I'm here in this stall that's already numbered. You bring
Speaker 1: it right out to the car, which has made my
Speaker 1: life so much easier. Um, not only that, what else? Oh,
Speaker 1: the ones that you walk into and cold weather climates
Speaker 1: have to have been gamed and I don't know if
Speaker 1: we have any here, but just in general, and some
Speaker 1: of the cities that I go to, they have sonics
Speaker 1: where you can walk inside and if you live in
Speaker 1: a place where it gets like ten degrees, Dame Rage,
Speaker 1: you're gonna be setting your car window open, you know,
Speaker 1: trying to talk to the person through the screen. Ye,
Speaker 1: so well, thank you. What's your favorites item on the menu?
Speaker 1: Good question. Oh, it's got to be a barger I mean,
Speaker 1: look at the number one. Are you talks or Fries talks? Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: It's been a lot of internal discussion about making this,
Speaker 1: uh Bobby Caitler water a thing. Oh, trust me, Oh
Speaker 1: I was kidding. I didn't. I really didn't think I
Speaker 1: was just saying something. Yeah. Um okay, well um, I
Speaker 1: think this has been a great interview. Anything else you
Speaker 1: guys would like to know? Yeah? Yeah? Are you Are
Speaker 1: you aware I went on a Friday night at one time,
Speaker 1: like at eleven. Are you aware that it's like the
Speaker 1: nineteen fifties at Sonic now, like where every high school
Speaker 1: kid there, I had no idea. Are you aware? Are
Speaker 1: you aware that there's a loser side and a cool side?
Speaker 1: Yeah of Sonic where you don't want to park on
Speaker 1: the losers? Oh yeah, what's the losers. What do you
Speaker 1: mean the one away from the building. No, what is it? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the cool side. Yeah. Hey, hey, hey, hey, I
Speaker 1: try to do drive through. But so if you face
Speaker 1: in to the building, I need to be clear on this.
Speaker 1: Let's just say if you face if you face it
Speaker 1: the Sonic building, that's the non cools. You're just kind
Speaker 1: of looking at the wall. Yeah, so you want to
Speaker 1: face them. You want to park on the remote we
Speaker 1: call it the remote side of the islands, and you
Speaker 1: can get out and hang out and tall and that
Speaker 1: kind of thing. I didn't know that I've been doing
Speaker 1: Sonic all wrong. Thank you for coming in and bringing
Speaker 1: us this and we love Sonic. Thank you, And I
Speaker 1: bet your I mean, I'm not going to ask him
Speaker 1: this question, but if I could ask any question in
Speaker 1: the world, I would be like, are you so rich?
Speaker 1: That's what I would ask. But I'm not going to ask.
Speaker 1: But if you want to answer humble beginnings that he
Speaker 1: started with, he could probably be honest with you. You'll
Speaker 1: be doing pretty good. I'm doing okay, Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 1: Like what I hear what you say? He's gotta go.
Speaker 1: He probably can't hear me. But I had a question
Speaker 1: about roller skating. He's asking a question. Yeah, okay, I'll
Speaker 1: repeat it back here. Roller skating? Do they still? Yeah,
Speaker 1: they do it? We do? Okay, cool. I haven't seen
Speaker 1: in the minute the first roller skating car hop that
Speaker 1: won the national award still works for us today. We
Speaker 1: have a skating competition every year nationwide and and our
Speaker 1: girl here won it. Oh do they get paid more
Speaker 1: of their roller skate? Yes? Oh, they get paid more.
Speaker 1: They get paid more and get tipped more. How do
Speaker 1: you like so do they have to try out? No,
Speaker 1: they'll come in and say I want a job and
Speaker 1: I can skate. Okay, because I say, you all a
Speaker 1: girl skating? Because you think skating brings more, it's more nostalgic. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like what if they skate into a carded, like
Speaker 1: when you have to fix it a few scrape Yeah,
Speaker 1: from the fix them d and scratches. We've had girls
Speaker 1: fall and break their arm. Yeah that and that's just
Speaker 1: natural scanning. I mean probably you have people on foot
Speaker 1: that trip and falls. Yeah. Yeah. Um My fantasy is
Speaker 1: that whenever I go to order on the app and
Speaker 1: it says Bobby and I order the same thing, and
Speaker 1: um that this is my fantasy that probably doesn't happen,
Speaker 1: but that they start fighting over who gets to bring
Speaker 1: it to me because there's an legend that I'm the
Speaker 1: greatest tipper in the world. Yeah, that's my fantasy. Well, actually,
Speaker 1: when I ran a store back in the nineties, Reba
Speaker 1: came all the time, and they would I want to
Speaker 1: take her order, I want to take her orderrap. But
Speaker 1: we were cool with it. We didn't didn't bother, and
Speaker 1: they skated into Reba's car. Yeah, she's a true Sonic fan.
Speaker 1: I'm really just from Oklahoma. She's she's Oklahoma. She's really
Speaker 1: good friends with a friend of mine that I serve
Speaker 1: on a committee with, and we'll be in meeting that
Speaker 1: she'll text Gary and say, hey Gary, I'm with Sonic
Speaker 1: eaton and she'll send pictures and vance as a big
Speaker 1: Sonic fan. He's played golf on our golf tournament several times. Well,
Speaker 1: if anyone in Vyann, Oklahoma is listening and they want
Speaker 1: to let us, we're ready, ready to build right now,
Speaker 1: they won't give us that that. Well, thank you for
Speaker 1: coming in, thank you for the Sonic. Good to see
Speaker 1: you too, And we all learned a lot more. And
Speaker 1: this was not a paid deal at all. Loved it
Speaker 1: is it just a good old fashioned that's something we
Speaker 1: care about interview. All right, thank you guys. All right,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna have a little We're not shutting down, right,
Speaker 1: We'll keep we'll keep going here. Thank you, Thank you guys.
Speaker 1: He also didn't expect that to happen. I think he
Speaker 1: got here with the boxes and Scoopa was like when
Speaker 1: you walk in there, I don't think you knew it
Speaker 1: was gonna be on the air until we were like, hey,
Speaker 1: stand up with that microphone. He did great. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: did great. Most people do great when they don't know
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to do it. It's people that don't
Speaker 1: have to speak publicly. It's the hours and days ahead
Speaker 1: of time where they work themselves into a frenzy knowing
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen, where if you're like, hey, just go
Speaker 1: up here and talk, they usually do pretty good. But
Speaker 1: he did good. And also, you know, I'm just so
Speaker 1: warm and lovable. It's just so hard. Okay, Well, that's good.
Speaker 1: We should actually send that to the Sonic people, a
Speaker 1: pretty good little promo over there for them. But that's
Speaker 1: also good for you to know not to park on
Speaker 1: the idea the loser side cool side world. Now I
Speaker 1: park in the one where that I can pull into
Speaker 1: the easiest and not to back out and you know traffic. Um,
Speaker 1: maybe see what other stories I have here. Let's do
Speaker 1: the Duelipa thing. Mike read, do you have those clips ready?
Speaker 1: I always like when people are suing other people about
Speaker 1: songs and stolen songs. Not that I like they're being sued,
Speaker 1: but I like that we act like where the judges
Speaker 1: we can determine if it's been being stolen or not.
Speaker 1: Du Alipa is being sued over her song Levitating, which
Speaker 1: I love this song. Here's the clip of it. I
Speaker 1: got you come on. There is a Florida reggae band
Speaker 1: named Article sound System. They have filed copyright infringement suit
Speaker 1: claiming they hit as a rip off of their song
Speaker 1: Live Your Life, which they release back in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: Why are you laughing because I heard it? Oh okay,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Okay, So I'm gonna say, here's a clip
Speaker 1: of doing Leap. Is it the same clip? Hen we
Speaker 1: heard that? Here's a clip of Article sound System Live
Speaker 1: Your Life. It's so hard because yeah, and I think
Speaker 1: right away you go, oh, very similar. But if I'm
Speaker 1: the judge, I don't think I give him any money.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a rip off. I don't either.
Speaker 1: I think there's some similarities in the Metal of Ba Boo,
Speaker 1: but then it doesn't go much more than it doesn't
Speaker 1: stem off the same way. And I don't think they
Speaker 1: own that own that part of that male. I just
Speaker 1: think there're probably a lot of songs that do that.
Speaker 1: You gotta think, like just music in general, I mean,
Speaker 1: it can only go so many different ways before it
Speaker 1: starts sounding some parts starts sounding the same. In this case,
Speaker 1: I think it's just coincidence. The question is do they
Speaker 1: have a case. I mean, yes, they have a case.
Speaker 1: Yeah they do. But I don't know that I would award.
Speaker 1: Maybe I were than like one percent songwriter if unless
Speaker 1: someone from her whoever wrote that her team is like
Speaker 1: OKAYI or no, like confession heard that album back in
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen and I was inspired. Played Duelipa again, Please
Speaker 1: I Got you. There are similarities for sure. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying I don't hear it, but play it again. Ray
Speaker 1: the other one. It also doesn't go where she goes
Speaker 1: it doesn't. I go no, I hear the similarities, but
Speaker 1: I go no, And I'm a judge. I do not
Speaker 1: give them any money. Man. Yesterday I brought my son in.
Speaker 1: I said, hey, listen to this, and I played on
Speaker 1: that reggae song and goes, whoa that sounds just like
Speaker 1: new A Leapa and don't like got them? Yeah that
Speaker 1: If you're a judge, that's what you do. You're and
Speaker 1: you're like, hey, listen to this kid, what do you hear?
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows? What do you think is going
Speaker 1: to happen? They could settle just to get it and
Speaker 1: give them a very small part of this songwriting, which
Speaker 1: they would have some money owed to them, which will
Speaker 1: probab which is you know what, okay do it? I
Speaker 1: would imagine that song made a lot of millions. Oh yeah, millions, millions, millions,
Speaker 1: same as you think of a company a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago that ripped off our four things to the
Speaker 1: like massive and made a bunch of china. How much
Speaker 1: do you get? Well? I didn't. But they ended up mate.
Speaker 1: We I had a meeting with them actually here. They
Speaker 1: came to the building and I met with them, and
Speaker 1: then they ended up cutting a chest to Haiti. That
Speaker 1: was their compromise. We were like, okay, well there's nothing,
Speaker 1: but they make these to support Haiti and they wrote
Speaker 1: a ten thousand dollar check, but that would have been
Speaker 1: nothing based on what they were making. I think they
Speaker 1: had like thousands and thousands and thousands of totes that
Speaker 1: they made and ours are made in the US, and
Speaker 1: like there's just a very different vibe. And he said
Speaker 1: that he had no idea that the concept came from us.
Speaker 1: But as we looked back at their they're from town,
Speaker 1: they're from here, someone had someone had posted something like
Speaker 1: we were able to track on Instagram that it was
Speaker 1: very obvious that someone on his team had seen one
Speaker 1: of our totes and then they'd got this idea. And
Speaker 1: he has the licensing with all the universities for saying
Speaker 1: because you can't just like print hook them or whatever
Speaker 1: other like razorbacks like that's there's licensing that goes with that.
Speaker 1: And he actually his company owns all that. So he
Speaker 1: was able to make all these bags in China and
Speaker 1: put them in every college campus bookstore and Kroger's and
Speaker 1: where else did like tup Michael's, tons of stores and
Speaker 1: so many listeners are like, Amy, this is so cool
Speaker 1: your four things, don't I keep seeing it everywhere and
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, that's not us. But that's what I
Speaker 1: don't know and just made me think of that for
Speaker 1: some reason. Good times. But he did make a donation.
Speaker 1: That was our settlement make a donation. He settled for that. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I mean anyone. We didn't want to have legal fees,
Speaker 1: like we're just a small like it wasn't a thing.
Speaker 1: We were like, look, fine, you know who's missing out
Speaker 1: on this, haiti, So pay up um one final thing
Speaker 1: back to what we opened, and we'll close with Morgan
Speaker 1: number two. When she emails, you say something that people
Speaker 1: are telling you is kind of douchy, which is thanks
Speaker 1: in advance. Now do you feel and you I'll let
Speaker 1: you state your thing and then we'll go around the room.
Speaker 1: Why do you think that's a thing? I don't. I mean,
Speaker 1: I say it because it's like me thanking them for
Speaker 1: the time and whatever energy they spend on what I'm
Speaker 1: sending them. But like people have told me that it's
Speaker 1: it's kind of negative and can like have a negative
Speaker 1: tone to it. So I was like, okay, have I
Speaker 1: been like saying the wrong thing this whole time. I
Speaker 1: don't cringe when you say thanks in advance. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's a thing. I don't think it's anything. I
Speaker 1: think it's just dead words attention to. It's like how
Speaker 1: I sign off sometimes, like if I send something as
Speaker 1: a question, thanks in advance, I'm okay with it. I'm fine,
Speaker 1: I've I've done it. I don't even look. I don't
Speaker 1: think I noticed it. I don't notice, and I don't
Speaker 1: accept the thanks in advance actually because you don't get
Speaker 1: to that part. No, it's just like I don't I
Speaker 1: didn't do it yet, and I don't want advance thanks.
Speaker 1: And if I do it, like you're asking and it's
Speaker 1: acceptable to take the things thin. How do you break
Speaker 1: it down more than anyone does in general? Like thanks
Speaker 1: in advance, I just see it like cool, no problem, Yeah, thanks,
Speaker 1: you're welcome in advance. I don't think it's cringe at all.
Speaker 1: Who told you that? A few people actually, but they
Speaker 1: were younger than me, so well, I say let me,
Speaker 1: I say, let me know how I say to And
Speaker 1: sometimes I'm going real quick elm k, and then they're
Speaker 1: gonna but they also probably know elm ka means you
Speaker 1: do elm K in an email. Sometimes it's funny, but
Speaker 1: my emails are so short. There's sometimes Kaylen will be
Speaker 1: next to me and I'm writing an email and she's like,
Speaker 1: don't send that. I'm like why. She goes look at it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, I need this, we'll do this. B
Speaker 1: She goes put some sort of greeting in there, and
Speaker 1: then put something at the end. So you are a
Speaker 1: real human, not a robot. What's the greeting? Hey, Eddie,
Speaker 1: Now it's greetings, Hey, greetings dot dot dot. You say greetings, greetings,
Speaker 1: everything on everything greetings dot dot dot. And then at

Speaker 1: I don't do that, but let me know. I'll just
Speaker 1: say thanks or let me know or m K. Scooba.
