32
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: to be an icon, so let's just go with Reba?

33
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: Or it was Marvel's idea? Yeah, and I liked it

34
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: because only when I sign my autograph, I only had

35
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: to put Reba because I'm lazy. Now it's kind of

36
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: weird to hear McIntyre. Yeah. I like it. When I'm

37
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: doing liners and things, I say, have Reba McIntyre because

38
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: that has a cadence for me. But just to do

00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: Reba's fund with me too, I go with it. I

42
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: It's funny to see whenever you look at your career,

43
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: even today, how relevant you are pop culture wise. Today.

44
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: I'm watching Ted last though, and they're like, hey, we

Speaker 1: love the tickets under Reba McIntyre, and so that that itself.

46
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: And we watched that episode I think two weeks ago,

00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 1: right did they Did you know that was going to

48
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: be in that show at all? No? I was sitting

49
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: there with Riddler Modog. I was sitting there watching TV

50
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: and and Roy Kent, my favorite character of the whole show,

51
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: comes up and says, I think you're holding a ticket

52
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 1: for Reba McIntyre. Riddler, did you hear that? I was through.

53
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: Marty said the same thing. She was sitting there with

54
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: her dog Cooper. So it was it was fun the

55
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: same kind of thing because I'm on TikTok a lot.

56
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: When you know I'm a survivor, is I'm must and

57
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: it's everybody doing like their little household things. You know,

58
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: someone you know throws away the trash. You know that

59
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: became and it still is a huge you know TikTok

60
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: trend that did that come out of nowhere for you too?

61
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: And did someone come up and go reab. All of

62
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: a sudden, this song is massive on TikTok. Yeah. I

63
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: think Justin was the one. He sent it over to me,

64
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: Justin McIntosh and uh he said, look at this looks

65
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: what's look what's going on? And I said, well, that's

66
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: pretty cool. I said, these kids weren't even born probably

67
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: when it was out first time, and he said, we

68
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: need to do one. So we did and then it

69
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 1: just got bigger and bigger, very flattering. It's it's it's one.

70
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: For a few weeks it was the most the thing

71
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: that I had seen the most. Now what's odd is

72
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: that um uh neon Moon is having its Ronnie it

73
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: texts me and goes, hey, what's happening here? And I

74
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: was like, what do you mean? What's happening? And I

75
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: don't I don't know. The guy that runs TikTok he

76
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: was like, our, our song is being played all over

77
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: the place. It's got some mix and then now there's

78
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: like a dance to it. But it is really cool

79
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: to see out and it's the easiest dance too. And

80
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: some of those dances I look at I can't do,

81
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: but it's like to eat. But that song that Mike

82
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: the remix Everywhere, isn't it everywhere? I'm a survivor. Neon

83
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: Moon are probably other than Walker Hayes's fancy like like

84
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: the two biggest songs on TikTok. But it's it's just

85
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: cool to see. I wouldn't even say every you know,

86
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: generation in which I would say like ten years, but

87
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: it's like, you just stay relevant. And if someone comes

88
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: to you and says, you know, what's the keyest staying what?

89
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: How do you do it? How do I do? How

90
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: you do it? I don't do nothing. I've got a

91
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: great team that come up there young. They can think

92
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: of great things for me to do, and I just

93
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,799
Speaker 1: go do it. And thank god, fans like that thought

94
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: it was interesting enough to sit on the toilet seat

95
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: and change the role of toilet paper paper and then

96
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: turn into rebund. Good job. You know, I'm a survivor.

97
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: It's just cute things like that. I'm very flattered more

98
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: than anything the songwriters. I mean I I text them

99
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: and I sent the TikTok over to them saying, look

100
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: what's going on for y'all song? So it's something we

101
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: can all can share and celebrate with. But it is

102
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: so good and it proves one thing, a great song

103
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: will live forever. The you did a whole album with

104
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 1: different remixes on it. Yeah, was the remix album inspired

105
00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: by it kind of blowing up again? Or will you

106
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: pready in the works with that before it blew up?

107
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: On TikTok, Cindy maybe came up with the idea of

108
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: revisiting the catalog, and so their team, my team, they

109
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: all got together and started coming up. I mean, I'm

110
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: the first time we all said at a long conference

111
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: table and they were telling me the ideas was that

112
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: two years ago or a year ago at least two

113
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: when we could without mask And I was like, oh crap,

114
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: they're They're serious. They've got a lot of ideas here.

115
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: And after the first fifty I was like, man, this

116
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: is cool. And after that I was like, oh crap,

117
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be way busier and I want to be probably,

118
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: but they were coming up with all these ideas and

119
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: then the three albums and three ways of doing fancy

120
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: and I thought it was just genius. And so here

121
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: we are promotment. Now did you feel precious about Okay,

122
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: I know you want to remix these songs, but to

123
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: a lot of people these songs, you know, uh define

124
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: you know, different parts of their life or were you like, hey,

125
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: have that it. I'm curious to see what you guys

126
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: do with three the latter, and I was saying, go

127
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: for it. Then when they said I'm a survivor as

128
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: a dance mix, I said, really, but it turned out great.

129
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: It's fun to look at your top streaming songs. Fancies

130
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: number one of all that when we went through all

131
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: the different services kind of added them all up, Fancies

132
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: number one, and I never and I'm probably I'm sure

133
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: that you've heard this many times. Whenever I was singing

134
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: fancy as a kid, I never really knew what fancy

135
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: was about until I got to be an adult. And

136
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: then when when I found out what fancy was about,

137
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, I've been singing that song a

138
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: little too passionately because I'm seeing it. I was singing

139
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: it hard. I mean, I was really into it. And

140
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: then it's like one day you just go, oh, how

141
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: about that? How about that? Yeah, the little girl coming

142
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: to school and wanting to sing fancy for the talent

143
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: not and she goes, do you know what this is about?

144
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: She's yeah, she gets a brand new red dress from

145
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: her mama. Okay, and then okay, if that's what you

146
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: think it's about, that's great. So when you recorded that song,

147
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: was there any talk with your with you your team, like, well,

148
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: this is kind of an area that we're gonna be

149
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: singing about that maybe isn't talked about a whole lot

150
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: in contemporary country music. Well, when I was with Jimmy

151
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: Bowen in the eighties, he said, is there a song

152
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: you want to a remix song? And I said, yeah, fancy.

153
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: He said, oh, woman, you don't need to be doing that.

154
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: That's about a prostitute. I said, that's totally aware of that.

155
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,559
Speaker 1: And so when I went with Tony Brown in nineteen ninety,

156
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: he said, would you like to do a song again?

157
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: And I said fancy. He said, oh my gosh, that's

158
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: my favorite song. So we did it. So it had

159
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: been discussed years earlier, and you decided not to cover it,

160
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: but I was vetoed, Yeah, it was like, no, you

161
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: can't do that. Well this whenever uh the ninth the

162
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: lights went out in Georgia, which I know that song

163
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: because of Mama's family and then you know, doing research

164
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: on her and then realizing she was a singer. You

165
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: have Vicky Lawrence. Um, when you do that song, was

166
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 1: it similar or did you go We're just gonna do

167
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: it and right away same thing? Tony said, is there

168
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: another song you'd like to do a remix? To do

169
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: it again? And I said, yeah, that's the night, the

170
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: last one out in Georgia. And you know Vicky, that

171
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: was her one and only song she recorded went number one.

172
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: That amazing. Do you have a conversation with the person

173
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 1: if they're alive, like did you talk to vickians did

174
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: and what was her thoughts? Like have at it? Oh?

175
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: She was thrilled to death. Yeah, but it was after

176
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: I did it when I talked to remember she had

177
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: that talk show at TV talk Show and I went

178
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,839
Speaker 1: on the visited with her and we sang it together

179
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: on on the show. That's pretty cool. Yeah, I would

180
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: assume even for you, that would be pretty cool. And

181
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: you get to do everything cool. Oh, everything I get

182
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: to do cool. I am thrilled to death about it.

183
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: I don't take it for granted. Still, after all this time,

184
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: you're not jaded? Oh no, No. When I got to

185
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: do the video with Dolly Parton, I was like I

186
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: was the biggest fan in the room. You know, It's

187
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: it's wild to hear someone who I look at as

188
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: being the greatest you, and to look at Dolly at

189
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 1: the greatest she is, and to to know that you

190
00:09:58,480 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: would walk into a room with her and be like

191
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: in awe when you moved to Nashville. Where was it Doll?

192
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 1: Was Dolly available when you moved to Nashville? Or was

193
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: she in l a Was she in that face? I

194
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: don't know. The first time I saw Dolly was September

195
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: sevent nineteen seventy seven, in person, the day the hour

196
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: I was going to go on and do my first

197
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: performance at the Grand Old Opry, and they told came

198
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: up and said, we're gonna take one of your songs

199
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: away from you. You only do one And I said why,

200
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: said well, Dolly Parton just pulled it in the parking lot.

201
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: And I said, well, she canna take both of them?

202
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: Can I meet her? And she walked buying this chaffaun

203
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 1: black pants sued and had those butterfly rund stone butterflies

204
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: on and this big cotton candy hair. Hell man, that

205
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: must be what angels looked like. That was the most

206
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: beautiful woman I ever saw my life and did you

207
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: say hello? No? I was backed up again the wall

208
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: like everybody else was. I mean they said, art the waves,

209
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: Dolly's coming me in, and us lamed back up against

210
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: that wall and just watched. I don't think her feet

211
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: touched the ground. She was an angel. And when did

212
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: you guys have your first you know where we kind

213
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: of do the same thing experience years later, and then

214
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: she came on the Reba TV Show and we got

215
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: to spend the whole week together. That was precious. That's

216
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: absolutely love, that priceless. I just look at you two

217
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: is out of the same cut of the same cloth.

218
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: Where you're as country as can be, you have ambitions

219
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 1: that are bigger than just singing country music. Although that's

220
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: your most that's your pillar, you have ambitions other than

221
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: just that. And you both did it at a really

222
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: high level. And I would think that that hopefully she

223
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: would be someone the same thing with like Taylor to you,

224
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: you know, with some of these other artists who are

225
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: doing that, that that that you can reach out to

226
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: it after a point and get advice from her to

227
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 1: that ever happened when you reach out like Dolly, you know,

228
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: can I can I pick your brain at all. Oh yeah, yeah,

229
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: I have done that. I did that in the early nineties.

230
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: A phone call, and she took my call. A matter

231
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: of fact, I called her. She was at I think

232
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: Caesar's in Vegas, and I was in Bakersfield somewhere, and

233
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: I needed a piece of advice from her, and and um,

234
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 1: she was on the Tonight Show the night before and

235
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: she said she's going to Vegas, won't be at Caesar's.

236
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: So I called Caesar's, but you actually called the casino

237
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: and I said, um, I need to speak to Dolly

238
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: Parton please. She said, one moment, please, who's calling? I said,

239
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: Reba McIntyre, And presuming Dolly came on the last she said,

240
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: is this really Reba McIntyre or some squirrel that wishes

241
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: she was Rebul McIntyre. It's me. That's funny to think about.

242
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: We just have to call I mean, I haven't thought

243
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: about having to do that. We just had to call

244
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,599
Speaker 1: a place to get someone. You have to call a

245
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: restaurant and be like, hey, my uncle there. Yeah, that

246
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: was like back in the day. I want to play

247
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: a little clip of does he love you? This is

248
00:12:52,200 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: you and Dolly here this here love you loves me,

249
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 1: loves me? Does he think? Does he think of you?

250
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,719
Speaker 1: She was spo how cool is that to hear even

251
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: though you've heard it ten thousand times? Yeah, you're right

252
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: because when we first heard it, uh, Dave Cobb was

253
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: the one that produced this one. And when we were

254
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: going down the list of all the songs and listening

255
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 1: to him, and does he Love You? Came up and

256
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: I sat there and listen. I said, play it again,

257
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: and we listened to it again. It was just the best.

258
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: Can I ask about the original version? Because from me

259
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: moving to Nashville, I've gotten to know Linda Hillary's mom, Yeah,

260
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: pretty well, like I love her. Yeah. But I remember

261
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: watching that CMT you Guys video. It was one of

262
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: the videos that and probably propped me up beside the

263
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: jukebox when I die. Probably two that I really you know,

264
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 1: remember and think about from from kind of that part

265
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: of my life. But a Originally I had read that

266
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: you thought maybe whine knowing that would be the one,

267
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: but Linda killed it singing it, and you're like, we

268
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 1: have to go with that? Is that story true? Well, Parsley,

269
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 1: Linda was on the road with me. She and Hilary's

270
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 1: dad Blank Scott. They were on the road with me,

271
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: and I thought, Linda, we could do this every night

272
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: on stage because she's backup singers. I was featuring her

273
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: on some songs because she had a record deal, and

274
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: so Tony said, well, let's well. The record label of course,

275
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: wanted either Tricia or one Ona, and I said, but

276
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: it's right here. It's so handy, and they said, well,

277
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: let's keep working on it. And I said, well, in

278
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: the meantime while I'm recording it, would can Lenda just

279
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: step in and do the other parts so I have

280
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: somebody to sing against. They said okay, And when she

281
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: got through, Tony said, she got the part. Did you

282
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: tell her then, hey, you're just gonna sing this as

283
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: kind of a demo version. Do you think in her

284
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: mind she was like, I'm gonna sing this so good

285
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: that hopefully they can't refuse that. You know, Linda is

286
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: so honest and so innocent. She was just probably glad

287
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: to be there and just I don't know what was

288
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: in her mind, but I knew she would kill the song.

289
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: I love it, and you know, Olinda has to do

290
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: a sing and she she sells herself. It's wonderful. Did

291
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: you know that Dolly would say yes if you asked

292
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: her to do that? Did you worry she wouldn't say yes.

293
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: That's why I said, managers, talk to managers. I didn't

294
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: want to put Dolly on the spot. Besides, I don't

295
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: have her phone number, so I thought it would be

296
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: a good idea just to go in that way. She

297
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: had an out if she didn't want to do it.

298
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: The new box that revived, remixed, re revisited is out now. Uh,

299
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: that is on the box that you're also doing the

300
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: Christmas and Tune, which is the Lifetime movie. Where does

301
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: the acting rank on your passions? Now? I love to act.

302
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: I don't like to sit around her up and wait.

303
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: I don't like that part of it. But I'm doing

304
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: several episodes of Young Sheldon on CBS. I love to

305
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: do that. I love the acting. I love the preparation.

306
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: I love to memorize my lines. I like almost all

307
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: of it. I like the being an executive produce. Sure,

308
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 1: I like being at the beginning. I like to rewrite

309
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 1: and uh, if they let me do that once in

310
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: a while, and they've been they were really nice on

311
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: Christmas and Tune to let me do that Rex helped

312
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: me tremendously. My boyfriend, Rex Lynn, he was boy. He'd

313
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: make me rehearse every day. I knew not only my lines,

314
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: but I knew everybody else's lines because he would be

315
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: every other character and I'd be me. So it was fun.

316
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: It was I was very prepared for that role. Whenever

317
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: you started to do Rebuild Your your television series, did

318
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: you guys get a straight deal or did you do

319
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: a pilot and then the pilot got picked up? Do

320
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: you remember I'm getting them all mixed up? Because then

321
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: we did Malibu Country. Um, I was in the midst

322
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: of doing any Get Your Gun. We went in in April.

323
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: I took ten days off from and he Gets Your

324
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: Gun to do go to California shoot the pilot. Then

325
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: we went to Upfronts, which is in May, and I

326
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: had done eight shows that week. I got Monday off.

327
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: Tuesday morning was up front, so I had to be

328
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: but crack of dawn over there. And they changed the

329
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: name three times. When we filmed the show for the pilot,

330
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:18,239
Speaker 1: it was the script was called Sally, and Marvin went

331
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: to him and said, you know, if you did the

332
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: afternoon filming as Sally and then in front of the audience,

333
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: tape it and Reba b Reba instead of Sally. Then

334
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,879
Speaker 1: let's see how that tests out, and they said okay,

335
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: So the title went from Sally. By the time I

336
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: got to upfronts, it was deep in the heart because

337
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: we were off from Houston, Texas and we were the

338
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: Heart family. So then there came out this thing on

339
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: the USA today that they're publisist. Publishists had said, why

340
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: the w B had ever hired Reba McIntire for this

341
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 1: part is ridiculous. She's not ever uh what do you

342
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: call it? Um? People that watch, Yeah, she's not our demographics.

343
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: And so the head of the company called by the

344
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 1: time we got back the hotel after up fronts and said,

345
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: terribly sorry, terribly sorry. What can we do to make

346
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: up for this? Well, I'd already gone back to bed.

347
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: I had a performance that night. So Marvel was talking

348
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: to Hernie. He heard me get up and go to

349
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,719
Speaker 1: the bathroom and out of the other room and he said, um,

350
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 1: hang on, let me put reb on the line. Banged

351
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: on the bathroom doors to pick up the phone, and

352
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: I saw I said hello, I said, We're terribly sorry

353
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: what happened? And what was in the USA today? What

354
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: can we do to make this up to you? And

355
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: I was half asleep and I said, uh, oh, well,

356
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: she said, well, Norvell said if we call it Reba,

357
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: you'll be happy with that. And I said that's a

358
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: wonderful idea. Thank you, hung up, went back to bed.

359
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 1: So that's how I got the name Reba. And so

360
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: you go, did you move out to l All because

361
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 1: it was that like you said, Hey, I got I

362
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: just gotta go. If I'm gonna do this, I don't

363
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: need to visit it, I need to go live it.

364
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: Oh we had to. We were there three weeks. So

365
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: what happened was I got through it, then he gets

366
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: your gun. On June we went to Ireland for a vacation.

367
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 1: I did five weeks All Girl Tour and then went

368
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: to l A. Found the found an apartment, a condo

369
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: we lived in for the first season because you never know,

370
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: it could go thirteen weeks and you don't get picked up.

371
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 1: But then we got picked up on the back nine,

372
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: and then Marvel went house hunting and we bought a

373
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: house and we were there for six and a half seasons.

374
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: Did that ever feel like home out there? I loved

375
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: living in l A. I'd love to go back and

376
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: do another show. Oh yeah, absolutely, Have you guys, you know,

377
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: explored different versions of that. Have you been close, real close?

378
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: Have you shot a pilot anything? Yeah, the Mark Cherry pilot.

379
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: We did one called ox Blood and they passed on it.

380
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,239
Speaker 1: It's always a weird thing because I've shot a few

381
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: pilots and had it passed on, where you feel like

382
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: everybody so pumped about it and everybody loves it, But

383
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: then might have been talk shows like oh, this is it.

384
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: Research has been great, Yeah, it's been, It's tested so wonderfully.

385
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: Well let's spend some month. Well it's just right now.

386
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: So is that showed? That show is done? That shows done, unfortunately,

387
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 1: which I thought it was gonna, you know, last forever.

388
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: I thought I'd retire off of that show. I mean

389
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: the ox Blood, that show. That's it. Yeah, Mark Cherry, Yeah,

390
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: I love his show Now Why Women Kill? It's just

391
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: he is a genius. I saw my wife watching that

392
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: show one day and I was like, why are you

393
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: watching Why? I don't know what it was about, just

394
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 1: exactly what are your motives are we learning from this show? Yes? What?

395
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: My my favorite duet in country music. The cowgirls don't

396
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 1: cry that thanks. That song to me, I think is

397
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: the sad It's we're in the land of sad songs.

398
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we have the format of the greatest sad

399
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: songs of all time, because I think we have the

400
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: format of the realist songs of all time. Cow girls

401
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: don't cry that song to me. And maybe it's because

402
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: I just didn't have a dad growing up. Maybe it

403
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 1: hits me like that and I'm not a cow girl,

404
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: but you know, there's that relationship like when when you

405
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: heard that song, like, were you moved? Yes? Because I

406
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: am a cow girl and my daddy was a cowboy

407
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: and a very strict uh cowboy. And so when we

408
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: do that song on stage in Vegas, there is a

409
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: huge screen behind the stage, behind the setup, and I'm

410
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: walking on stage for my part and running and kicks

411
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: already out there, and I happened to look up and

412
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: see that cowboy. I barely got my notes out. It

413
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 1: choked me up so bad. I mean, that song still

414
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: doesn't anytime we do, or anytime someone's interviewing me about

415
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: country music and they're talking about emotion and song like

416
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: that's the one I still go to after all these years.

417
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: And and you know, we could was fifty great sad songs,

418
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: but that one to me and maybe it's the time

419
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: I want to cut and how it hits me personally.

420
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: I'm not even a cow girl, like I said, no

421
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: girl to me. I was talking to my wife, she's

422
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: she's an Oki, and she was talking about how all

423
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: the towns in Oklahoma are A lot of them are

424
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: set in different ways. And she's talking about it's not Miami, Oklahoma,

425
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: it's Miama, Oklahoma, right, And so you were born in

426
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: say it for me, it's Chalky. I was born in

427
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 1: McAllister and went to school at Kawa, which wall is

428
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: the town she was talking about. It said two different ways,

429
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: not Kyo Wall, It's Kawa. That's why we say it

430
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: in the Kyo Wa Indians. And then I lived in Chalky,

431
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: and then I lived before I left Oklahoma, lived in Stringtown.

432
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: Just keep going south. But I went to college for

433
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: three and a half years in Durant. That's a lot

434
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: of Oklahoma. There's a lot of towns that kind of

435
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 1: help help represent what town. I guess they probably all

436
00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: feel like they're your town. Like when you go do

437
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: they all represent you in some way. Girlhood, home, born here,

438
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: went to college here. Yeah, that's gotta be pretty cool.

439
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: It is cool, and I go back. I go back

440
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: quite often, Probably will Moore in the future. Um. Mom

441
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: and daddy were worked real, real hard to gain a

442
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: lot of land by a lot of property, and so

443
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: they split it four ways between us, us kids, and

444
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: now we are managing our own properties and it's a

445
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,360
Speaker 1: lot of fun. I'm curious about your mom because rememberything

446
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: I've read about her. She was she could sing, and

447
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: she wanted to be a singer, but she ended up

448
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: being a school teacher and teaching music to kids liked.

449
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,719
Speaker 1: Did her desire to be a singer influence your desire

450
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 1: to be a singer? Like? Did her once make you

451
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: want it? How so? Because when we were rodeo and

452
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: we didn't have a radio in the car and four

453
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: kids in the back seat, rassling was getting would get

454
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 1: on anybody's nerves, and so Mama would get us to

455
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: sing to keep us out of trouble, keep us occupied.

456
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: Then first grade, Uh, the teacher would say, all right,

457
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: we're having a Christmas program. Anybody want to sing? And

458
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: I'd raised my hand and Mama would encourage me on that,

459
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: just like she did Pake Allison Susie. And so when

460
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: we got in the high school junior high years, we

461
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: they formed a little country western band and we played

462
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: at the football games and had little concerts. And then

463
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: when I went on to college, I took Mama made

464
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: sure I took eighteen hours, so keep me out of trouble.

465
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: A lot of hours we'll keep and so. But they

466
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 1: were mostly music classes. And so when I went to

467
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: the national finals rodeo o Clombas City and seventy four,

468
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: I was a sophomore. Daddy knew I was up there

469
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: party and having a good time, and he said, why

470
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: don't you get you a job while you're up there?

471
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: And I thought, shoot, that would interfere with all my fun.

472
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: I said, doing what? And he said to sing the

473
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: Nashal anthem. And that's when Red Steak All heard me

474
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: so fast for that was in December seventy four, seventy five.

475
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: He said, Jack, bring Reba down and we'll cut a

476
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: demonstration tape. I didn't really want to. I didn't know

477
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: anybody in the music business. I had all my friends

478
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: in the rodeo. I wanted to be a world champion

479
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: barrel racer. So about halfway from Oklahoma here, Mama, I said,

480
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 1: let's stop here and do this. Mamma said, you know,

481
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: if you don't want to do this, that's fine, let's

482
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: just go home. But if you do this, I'll be

483
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: living all my dreams through you. I said, we'll thunder.

484
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: What didn't you say? So get in the car, let's go.

485
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: And when Mama died, I told Susie because we were

486
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: cleaning up Mama's house, I said, I don't think I

487
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: want to do this anymore. She said why. I said,

488
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 1: I was doing it for mama. When you do it now,

489
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,640
Speaker 1: are you still doing it for your mom? Yeah? Yeah,

490
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,880
Speaker 1: But it took me good three months to say, call

491
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: Susie back, say okay, I'm I'm back, I'll do it. Wow.

492
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 1: Your dad, I am assuming he is stilled the work

493
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: ethic that you must have to get to this point.

494
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: Like I'm assuming your dad was like, this is a

495
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: to b We do the hard work because you're living

496
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: on a ranch. What what kind of work was there

497
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: to do around the place. Oh, before school, we'd get

498
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: up at four in the morning and uh Peg and

499
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: I would go out and catch probably four to five

500
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: horses out in a forty acre pasture that were frisky

501
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: because it was September, and then we'd have to saddle

502
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: him up and send them up. They'd kind of walk

503
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: back step on your feet, and then we'd go in.

504
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: Daddy'd have breakfast cooked, and Mom would be in there

505
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:35,959
Speaker 1: getting ready for work because she was the superintendent's assistant secretary,

506
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 1: and so we would go start gathering one end and

507
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: then bring them all down to the pins. Mom would

508
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: stay there at the scale and she had weigh them.

509
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: We'd put them on the trucks, and then we'd go

510
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: to school. That's before school. That's a day's work before school. Yeah,

511
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: that wasn't all the time. That was in the fall,

512
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: and in the spring we would get cattle in and

513
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: we'd have to work them, you know, vaccinate on de horn,

514
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: on cash, straight on brandom, and then put them out

515
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: in one pasture and make sure they're all right to

516
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,679
Speaker 1: go into the bigger pasture and then put them up

517
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: in the hills. All those same things have been done

518
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: to me since I got married a couple of months ago.

519
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: Vaccinated castrated, your dad being a world champion roper, was

520
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: he practicing a lot. Do you remember him practicing a

521
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: lot as a kid? Yeah, like was he younger? Younger younger?

522
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: And then Grandpapa always told us when they were all

523
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 1: at home, Daddy would be out there roping. He said, Clark,

524
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: get out there and rope and got to practice. And

525
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 1: Daddy would practice roping chickens, he'd rope anything. Yeah that's

526
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: hard to do. Yeah, that's really hard to do. Yeah,

527
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 1: and he'd get it done. And so Daddy told us

528
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: one time that grand Pap said, now, son, if the

529
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 1: house catches own far, me and your ma all take

530
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: care of it. You just stay out there at the

531
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,360
Speaker 1: rope and pen and keep practicing. They were because Grandpap

532
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: was a nineteen thirty four World champions to roper. What

533
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: your lineage? Well, where did okay, your your dad, your grandfather,

534
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: Where did your family come from? Because this is some

535
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: kind of work ethics something. I mean you guys, how

536
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 1: you can sing your athletes? You work hard like I

537
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: think it comes from being a survivor, I really do, Daddy,

538
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 1: Daddy didn't rope for the fame. Daddy, Now that's pretty

539
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: much for me. I love attention, so I like I

540
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,639
Speaker 1: like the fame. I love it, but Daddy he'd rather

541
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: been at home. He went out he could make money

542
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: by roping and winning ropings, and he would bring the

543
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: money home. He would make a payment for the land

544
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 1: and cattle at the bank and pay off the grocery bill,

545
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: and that was the main two thing. Then he would

546
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: go do another roping to make more money to buy

547
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: more land, more cattle. You say you like fame. When

548
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: did you feel famous for the first time? Well, you're like,

549
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: oh man, this is a this is a lot of

550
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: opportunities now that I get to have because of fame

551
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: right here talking to you. That's not true. We know

552
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: that's not true, because I would have to imagine. It's

553
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: just famous was so different even ten years ago. Like

554
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: I'm just now starting to get my first real experience

555
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: of going places I've never been and people being like,

556
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: recognize you from this TV show at this rate, And

557
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: for me it still hits me a little weird. But

558
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: there are there ten million famous people. Now. You can

559
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: be famous on TikTok, you'll be famous on YouTube on

560
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 1: But when you were famous, I mean you even in

561
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: the nineties with Reba the TV show, it was just

562
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: a different world because there weren't five hundred thousand famous people.

563
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: They were kind of just two hundred famous people period,

564
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: and you were one of them. When for you did

565
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: you go, wow, I'm actually famous. This is crazy. When

566
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: I was ordering something on the telephone before Internet and

567
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: I was I was saying, okay, I'd like this rug

568
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: number in three four or five seven, she says, hold on,

569
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: they knew you by your voice? Is this entire I

570
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: hadn't given her money, aim or anything. I said, hold on,

571
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: I was okay, blah blah, back what else would you like?

572
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: So I thought, wow, my voices. But you know I

573
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: can't get a commercial, you know, like this is the

574
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: kind of truck you need voice over. I've done movies,

575
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: you know, in cartoons, animation, of which I love to

576
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: do that. I was talking to Clarence whenever you were

577
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 1: doing the Kentucky Fried Chicken the Colonel Sanders, and he

578
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: had mentioned to me that there was so much that

579
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: went into even you getting dressed as Colonel Sanders, because

580
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: they have very strict protocol at what Colonel Sanders can

581
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 1: wear can look like. And I was like, really, even

582
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: Reba as Colonel Sanders are like, oh yeah, it needs

583
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: to be exactly like this, Like that was like that,

584
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: But that seems like a commercial. It would be a

585
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: lot of work. It was super cool. It was fun.

586
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: But I gotta imagine if you have to abide by

587
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: the Colonel Sanders Handbook of you know, exact living, that

588
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: that's probably a lot leading into a shoot just of

589
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: hair and a cup. Right. The thing I remembered more

590
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: than anything is the length of the fringe? Could we

591
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: put Ryan stones and fringe on my outfit? Like? Was

592
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: it a question of what would they allow it? Yeah?

593
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: Would they allow it? And they did? They approved it,

594
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: and then we had to get I had to get

595
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: my mustache and my beard. Oh I had to get

596
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: fitted for my beard that's weird, and then my hairpiece.

597
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: But it was fun. I enjoyed it. I just imagine

598
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: there's a team with a bunch of clipboards walking around

599
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: you with chicken going all right, this is not work.

600
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: We gotta the ears are too high? Did you do

601
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: that whole campaign before you announced it? So? Did was

602
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: that a one you had to keep secret? Or no?

603
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: Do you? Because I remember it was announced? Aybody kind

604
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: of flipped out a little bit. Yeah. Was that an

605
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: automatic yes from you? Or did someone have to convince

606
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: you no. Clarence came to me and I said, oh,

607
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. And then he presented it

608
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: to his son, Aaron, who's a little younger than Shelby

609
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: my son, and Aaron said, that's the coolest thing ever. Okay,

610
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: I'll do it because you you know how your generation

611
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: might think about it, But what would the next two

612
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: three generations below think about it? Younger? And when Aaron said,

613
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: oh man, that's the coolest thing ever, I thought, okay,

614
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: that's hip. I'll do it. Do they give you any

615
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: sort of chicken for life or I'm sure they give

616
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 1: enough money to buy chicken for life. I'm sure that's

617
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: not a that's not a cheap get. That was really cool.

618
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: I really liked it. As Colonel Sanders Banks, I had

619
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 1: a blast doing it. And what's the great thing about

620
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: it is you only do it once. Then they find

621
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: somebody else the next time. It's a one time thing.

622
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: Did you have to do a bunch of different shoots

623
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: over weeks or did you go in for like a

624
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: few days and do it all the same just one week.

625
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool and I will always remember that for

626
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: years and years. You as Colonel Sanders the last show

627
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: you watched, and he thought, I can't wait to see

628
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,760

00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: gotta tell you the funniest story the other day happened.

660
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 1: I was checking out and the grocery sat girl was

661
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 1: sitting there and she was going through all the stuff

662
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: and she was narrating and commenting on everything that I

663
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: had bought. And she picks up a bottle of beano.

664
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: She said, is this for you? I said, yeah it is?

665
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: She said, well does it work? Everybody in line? I

666
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 1: would looked at everybody as it works, great advertisement right

667
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: here just to buy if you would, you had to

668
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: love and not for the reason but to wear a

669
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: mask though people probably didn't know it was you a

670
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: lot of the time. A lot of the times until

671
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: I talk, they don't um And I will stop and

672
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: ask other people shopping, do you have any idea? We're

673
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: so and so is, and they'll go it's yeah, are

674
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: you really you're out shopping? Yeah? You know where the

675
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 1: bacon soda is? They said, yes, right down that as okay, thanks.

676
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: I'm curious about the Grand ol Opery and for for

677
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: a lot of reasons. One my grandmother raised me for

678
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: a lot of my life, and so that's what we did.

679
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: We watched it on TNN or or whatever channel that

680
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: was on, because it's kind of had its different, you know,

681
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: iterations of being on television. Mostly for me it was

682
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: TNN back in the day. But when you were inducted,

683
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: how id invited into the Grand ol Opry, which are

684
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 1: two big things, but they're different. Do you remember your

685
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 1: invitation into the Grand ol Opry when they said REB

686
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 1: would like for you to be a member. No, I don't.

687
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: I do remember in eighty four when I got inducted.

688
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: Who inducted you? Do you remember that night? And was

689
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: it just because I will go now, and some of

690
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 1: my friends are getting inducted, and it's like the coolest thing,

691
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 1: and I'm so proud for them, and it's a massive deal.

692
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: What was it like when you were inducted? I got

693
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 1: to stand on that circle. I was really thrilled because

694
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 1: I'd gotten to stand on the circle. Septem seven, Now, Bobby,

695
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: the reason I remember that date so well is because

696
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 1: thirty years prior, Daddy won the all around at the Pendleton,

697
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: Oregon Round Up. And then you remember this next day

698
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: that being like the anniversary of the same day that

699
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: you saw. Yeah, so um, being the day that I

700
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: got in inducted. Uh wasn't as huge a time as

701
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 1: it was in September because Mom and Daddy and Alice

702
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: drove from Oklahoma just to be there with me. My

703
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: first time. We'd been to the Grand Old Opry at

704
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 1: the rheman lots of times. That was our only vacation.

705
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: But and we pulled up to the gate, Daddy rolled

706
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: down his wind and said, um, got Ruba McIntyre. She's

707
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: gonna saying on the opera tonight. And gentlemen looked on

708
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: his clipboard. He said, Oh no, she's not. They say

709
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 1: yes she is. He said, she's not on this clipboard.

710
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: She's not gonna be I said, Daddy, let's just go

711
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: across the interstate. That getting going. I'll call Shorty and Dick.

712
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,360
Speaker 1: That was Shorty Lavender and Dick Blake, who were my

713
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: book and agents got me on the gig. So I

714
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,320
Speaker 1: went over there and I put my quarter in and

715
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,439
Speaker 1: I called I think it was Dick, and I said

716
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 1: they won't let me in. He said, um, you just

717
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,720
Speaker 1: go right back over there. And I'm terribly sorry this happened.

718
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: So Daddy pulls up and rolls down his wind and

719
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: is asked, Mr McIntyre, right over here on number sixty seven,

720
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: you park right there. You go glad to see y'all.

721
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: So that was a night we'll never forget. And then

722
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: I got one of my songs Bump because Dolly's there.

723
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: But we're still thrilled. Old babies in the air. We

724
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 1: just loved it. I think I've done stand up at

725
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 1: the operator probably twenty times if I produced the TV show.

726
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna get the the story where you come

727
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 1: in and I now tell the story I've told you

728
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: a couple of times at the opera, but you were

729
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: maybe a month and a half ago. You were performing

730
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 1: at the Opery and then there was a change over,

731
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: and then you performed on an NBC special and so

732
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 1: I don't stand up earlier and they said, hey, go

733
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: fill some time between raps. Changeover. It was like a cool,

734
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: no problem. So I go and I'm doing some jokes.

735
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 1: I'm it's it's hard for me to write new jokes

736
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: because you can't practice in front of people, right because

737
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: the pandemic has allowed me to do no touring. Jokes

738
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: aren't like songs. I can't practice in my room, I

739
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: could say, but unless people are laughing, you don't know

740
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: if it's funny. And so I'm up and they're like, okay,

741
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: Rebe's gonna be like a minute, and so I do

742
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: another joke and then you come. You're on the side

743
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: stage and you look at me and you point at me,

744
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,800
Speaker 1: and for some reason, I thought you were about to

745
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: invite me into the Grand ol Operate and I remember going, oh,

746
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: this is the this is it because between between all

747
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: my performances, I've probably been on that stage two hundred times,

748
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: between the hosting the TV show, all during the pandemic,

749
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: and like it's been a dream, and you pointed at

750
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: me as you were coming onto the stage to do

751
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: your second thing, and for some reason I thought it

752
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: was an extra sincere point, and inside even went about

753
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: to be invited to become remember the opery. And you

754
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: came closer and you were like, hey, thanks, and I

755
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: was ready for you, and he said okay, I'll go,

756
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 1: and I was like okay. I walked off and I

757
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: was like, well that did instead of that just happened.

758
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 1: I was like, well that didn't just happen, And so

759
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 1: I wished it had to be in there. You know what,

760
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 1: I think it's a better story that it hasn't yet.

761
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: But for for a split second, I thought reb it

762
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:25,799
Speaker 1: was inviting me to be a member of the Grand

763
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: ol Opry, and my life was perfect. For that second,

764
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,839
Speaker 1: my life was perfect. Where does your love of corn

765
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:40,879
Speaker 1: dogs come from? County fairs, state fairs? Uh? I see

766
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 1: the meme everywhere dogs. I see the meme of you

767
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: with the corn dog in a private jet, like the

768
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 1: living the life mean, that's what that is. You with

769
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,359
Speaker 1: a corn dog in a private jet is like nothing

770
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: else could be better than this moment. And to be

771
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: memed itself one time you're memed in every way, all

772
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,399
Speaker 1: these positive ways. It's the most amazing thing. Did did

773
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 1: someone come to you and go read but you're now

774
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 1: a corn dog meme? No? No, I found it out

775
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: by somebody you. Oh yeah, somebody did come to me

776
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 1: and tell me that you're exactly right. Yes, I want

777
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: to do a thing, and then I do want to

778
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 1: get back into the music for a second. But I

779
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 1: want to do a um an urban legends thing about

780
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: you because there are so many things that you hear

781
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: and you go is it true or isn't it true?

782
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: Once I heard you died this season on this there

783
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: was a big yeah. I think we had to even

784
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: come out and say you didn't diet I did, which

785
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,879
Speaker 1: is a weird conversation to have to have with people. Yeah.

786
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: My nephew was in Arkansas traveling and he walked into

787
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: a convenience store and everybody was saying, Rube McIntyre just

788
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: got killed. She fell off a mountain. He went running

789
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: to a phone to call his mama, my sister, so

790
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: it's a bob died. What happened? And she said, oh no,

791
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: I'd have been the first one to find that out. Nope,

792
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: she's fine and that's a weird thing to go. I'm

793
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: not dead, look at me. How did that even start? Somebody?

794
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: Just on Twitter? There was a trend going on there

795
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: for a while that the fake death announced. No, I

796
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 1: think it's before Twitter wasn't. Here are a few things. Okay,

797
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: Is it true that you were in the running to

798
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 1: being Titanic the movie? And I had the part you?

799
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: So you did, and you thought, what unsinkable Molly Brown

800
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: was the part I was gonna play. I went auditioned

801
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: for James Cameron and we were back on tour and

802
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: they needed like August, September, and October, so we moved

803
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 1: our concerts to November, December and then January. And then

804
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 1: they would I mean, you start getting all the venues.

805
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 1: We were promoting ourselves, and you get all that set,

806
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: and then they'll come back and go, you know, we're

807
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: gonna have to move it three months for Well, you

808
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,360
Speaker 1: can't do that. I've got people that are depending on

809
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: me for their livelihood, that's their paycheck, and I just said,

810
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 1: I gotta choose. I got so I said, sorry, I

811
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: can't do this to my people, So I turned down

812
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: that part. You were a serious, like a really good

813
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:02,479
Speaker 1: basketball player when you were younger. Falsely, Well, we didn't

814
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: have that many people on the team, so I got

815
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 1: to play a lot. I was a guard. That was

816
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: back in the day when it was six you know,

817
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: three on three, not full court, thank god. But I

818
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 1: loved it. I went to basketball camp every summer. That's

819
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 1: another place I learned how to volunteer. Coaches love volunteers.

820
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: I wasn't that good at all, but because I was

821
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: a volunteer, I stayed on the coaches good side. There's

822
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,240
Speaker 1: an urban legend about Faith Hill trying to sing background

823
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,280
Speaker 1: for you. Um she did audition to be a background

824
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 1: singer and she didn't get it, and Marvel and I

825
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: looked at each other and said, she's gonna be a star,

826
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 1: big star one day. So you could see stardom in her,

827
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 1: but you didn't think it was that she was right

828
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: to be a backup singer because she was too big

829
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 1: for the job. She was saying she wasn't that good

830
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:55,760
Speaker 1: of a harmony singer at that time. Um, No, wasn't

831
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 1: meant to be. That's pretty cool, though, you could tell

832
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,920
Speaker 1: she was going to be a star, you know, and

833
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: back got singing is different than just me just singing

834
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 1: the melody of a song too. Okay, let's let's let's

835
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 1: roll through some of this this this new stuff here

836
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: because I have it up. I want our people to

837
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: hear this so they can check out the box set,

838
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 1: so they can check out we played does He Love You? Mike?

839
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 1: What do we have over there of the remixes? All

840
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: those on that right there on the up top. Okay,

841
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 1: here we go. Play me I'm a Survivor, the dance

842
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 1: remix single mom, two jobs, kids and never stops with

843
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 1: lens and the heart of the Fire. I'm a survive

844
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: What do you think about that? I don't think it's

845
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: that different. I don't either. I think it sounds it's cool,

846
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 1: but I don't think it went total euro which is

847
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: would be what I would be afraid of on that song,

848
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: or which is like, yeah, there's some of them that

849
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: it's you know, it takes ten minutes to get into

850
00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 1: the song because of the little hook line that they found.

851
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:05,279
Speaker 1: But I enjoyed listening to it. I really did. That's

852
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: gotta be a really special talent. I've never seen anybody

853
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: do it. But it's got to be a lot of

854
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:11,879
Speaker 1: work to remix the song. I have no idea. Yeah,

855
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: it's like me, I just I'm like, that sounds good,

856
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 1: that doesn't and I have no idea what I'm talking about.

857
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: It's very fancy. Here's the remix to fancy. She said, yeah,

858
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 1: there's some part of that. It's like it's a yes

859
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 1: she was, Yes, she was chimed, the queen chimed, the

860
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: king a congressman, and there's there's something that they put

861
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,720
Speaker 1: back in. And the video is pretty funny to somebody

862
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 1: did a video of the remix. One more. Let's do

863
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 1: consider me gone is the revisited sick. You can't do better? Then?

864
00:44:53,480 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 1: I guess weird. Let's stop trying this. Consider me God?

865
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: What do you here different about that? It's relaxed, it's mellow,

866
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:11,760
Speaker 1: it's um not so confrontational. It feels like the percussion

867
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: on it too as much. It's a little soft. Very

868
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 1: sorry more cahone e. It was than it is a

869
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: snare And that's the first time I heard it. That's

870
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,360
Speaker 1: what I thought too. Yeah, that was Dave Cobb, and

871
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 1: we had five musicians and they'd bring in a fiddle

872
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: player or a still guitar player for specialty, and it

873
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 1: was just so relaxed. The difference in consider me going

874
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: on what you just heard and the original. Uh, the

875
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 1: original was more in your face screaming you know, how

876
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: dare you? You're an idiot? And this one's kind of like,

877
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:47,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's not working out. Let's just sack.

878
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: It's just so much more mature. It's not throwing a fit.

879
00:45:52,560 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: It's just I like it better. The new box that revived, remixed,

880
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:06,440
Speaker 1: revisited is available now. The Dolly Does He Love You

881
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,359
Speaker 1: remake is also on this box set. The Lifetime movie

882
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,360
Speaker 1: Christmas and Tune premieres on November. I would like to

883
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 1: ask about one more song, being from Arkansas. Little Rock

884
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 1: was played everywhere this song I was a kid. I

885
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: remember hearing it on the radio probably more than anywhere

886
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: else because it was us, the song about us. So

887
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 1: when someone wants to name check a city and Mike,

888
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 1: you can play that, I would have to imagine in

889
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 1: a song where you name check a city and you

890
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 1: get to play in that city, everybody's just just waiting

891
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: to hear the song about their town, Like, right, can

892
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 1: you imagine being so stupid not to play little Rock?

893
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: When you played a Little Rock, even if you took

894
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 1: it off your set lest later you have to put

895
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: it back on right when you go back to everybody,

896
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 1: refresh your memory. What what has been so close because

897
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,840
Speaker 1: I came out? And why you and Kicks and Ronnie

898
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 1: in Vegas? What's that relationship been like? And why after

899
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 1: all these years are you guys still together and still

900
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: doing these these shows together. We grew up together. We

901
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,399
Speaker 1: toured three or four times in the nineties. Um they

902
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 1: opened the show for me the first time we toured,

903
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 1: and then we were you know, co headlining and having

904
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,320
Speaker 1: fun and playing pranks on each other and going on

905
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: vacations together and um, hanging out. It was just a

906
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 1: great relationship. They're learn not my brothers. We're very close,

907

910
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm very sad about it. It was the gig of

911
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: a lifetime. You got to stay in this nice sweet

912
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:56,879
Speaker 1: you got this perform on this absolutely incredibly well um

913
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:03,280
Speaker 1: lit and the sound was incredible. Stage restaurants over the chart.

914
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 1: People came from all over the world to come see you,

915
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 1: and it was a consistency that we're not familiar with.

916
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:15,320
Speaker 1: We're used to three different cities, three different days, and

917
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: to to get to do that. And they could go

918
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 1: play golf, Ronnie could go off and take pictures. I

919
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: could stay upstairs and play all the games I wanted

920
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,480
Speaker 1: and with my family and friends. It was it was

921
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,399
Speaker 1: a dream job. Were there any parallels and that job?

922
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 1: And when you did any get your gun because you're

923
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,840
Speaker 1: playing in the same theater. Yeah, and you're not touring,

924
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,839
Speaker 1: you know, did you have to do two shows a day? Ever?

925
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: When you were? Because I had friends that did shows

926
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 1: on broad Away and they were like, man, we'd have

927
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 1: off a Monday, but then we're doing two shows, you

928
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: know on weekends. Two shows on Wednesday, two shows on Saturday.

929
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 1: You had Monday off, eight shows a week. Hardest job

930
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: ive ever had in my life. I was gonna ask

931
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: the only, the only parallel, the similarity. But too, I

932
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,120
Speaker 1: was in the same hotel room, I was in the

933
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 1: same dressing room, in the same stage. Did that make

934
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: you want to do more on Broadway or less? Oh?

935
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 1: I asked Carol Burnett that. I said, do you think

936
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: you'll ever do another Broadway play? She said, sure, only

937
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:16,880
Speaker 1: if I can do the matinees only. I thought we

00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,560

998
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: got delayed. You know what I thought it was cool

999
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:11,680
Speaker 1: is when you put out the YouTube concert of the

1000
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,839
Speaker 1: tour of your shows from back in the day. Though.

1001
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 1: That was so cool. Thanks. Yeah, that was just a

1002
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,399
Speaker 1: brilliant idea. I watched the whole thing. I didn't come

1003
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,040
Speaker 1: up with that. I can't take credit, but I think

1004
00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: it was justin that came up with it, Justin McIntosh,

1005
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,800
Speaker 1: and we had it and why not get it and

1006
00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 1: you know, get it ready and put it out on television.

1007
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,879
Speaker 1: Let people know that, you know, we have been doing

1008
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 1: this a while. In a way, that's bad because the

1009
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 1: first one was pretty poor quality, not up to standards

1010
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 1: that we see today. Second one was a lot better,

1011
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 1: but um, I was still very proud of it. When

1012
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 1: when you're out on tour and we will end with this,

1013
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:49,040
Speaker 1: she'll be out January, do you feel like you've put

1014
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 1: an unhealthy expectation of you having to wear all the

1015
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: great clothes all the time. Yes, don't you ever just

1016
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: want to go and sweats and be like, I'm gonna

1017
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 1: sing eight songs and sweats. I'll never forget seeing Shani

1018
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:01,400
Speaker 1: Twain come out. Um. I wasn't there in person, but

1019
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 1: I saw it and she had those fluffy little workout

1020
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,040
Speaker 1: pants on and tennis shoes and her hair up in

1021
00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 1: a ponytail, and I was like, I'm way overthinking this.

1022
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:13,000
Speaker 1: And she had all her dancer and be Bob Brown.

1023
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,879
Speaker 1: It was so cool, and I thought, man, why didn't

1024
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:19,280
Speaker 1: I think of that? Okay, thank you, thank you Bobby.

1025
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:21,800
Speaker 1: Nice to see all of you. That was awesome.
