In the 9 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 1: back of Wildflower my bus on tour. I think I 10 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: was in Indiana. I didn't do research. I should have 11 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: listened to it. And there's I also don't know if 12 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: that was the day that it launched or if that 13 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: was the day, because I think there's two or three 14 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: of them on that same day. Yeah, I think I 15 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: launched about five the same day. Like you put up 16 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: five episodes, I think I did. I think interesting, somebody 17 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: talked me into launching five episodes at one time. That's 18 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: just hit it. 19 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: Off the ground. That's a Parker idea. 20 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: It was a Parker idea. 21 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 2: I don't know. It might not be, but it sounds 22 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 2: like how. 23 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: Long is that? How long has it been?

Then Marshall started making his appearance here. 80 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: Those are great, man. Some of the questions, yeah, the 81 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: best questions too. Yeah, yeah, and yes, some of them 82 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 2: started repeating. But the very first time you answered a 83 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: guy going, so there's this girl? I like yeah, And 84 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,679 Speaker 2: what followed was just great. 85 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: We started getting million views on social media from I 86 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: remember launching those videos on TikTok and I was on 87 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: tour and I would get you know, a clip from 88 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: the podcast me answering some poor chum's question about him 89 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: and you know, his girlfriend left him and he doesn't 90 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: know what to do, and I'm telling him the block 91 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: her on Facebook, you know, and it's okay. You know, 92 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: your heartbreak is just as common as the sun rising 93 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: in the east, you know. And I've said that story 94 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: a thousand times, and I started putting them on TikTok 95 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: and just watching them go twenty five thousand views, refresh, 96 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: thirty eight thousand views refresh, seventy one thousand views refreshed, 97 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: just going, man, this is crazy world. These videos are 98 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: going crazy viral on TikTok. You know this is four 99 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: or five years ago, when that was happening three years ago. 100 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 2: So Grainger, why are you pulling the plug? 101 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: So? I think part of the argument I'm trying to 102 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: make here is that this podcast has been all over 103 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: the map. We've had had war veterans, We've had UH 104 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: tournament fishing guys, We've had comedians, country music musicians, pastors, apologists, 105 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: gang members, gang members, rappers, and the the diversity of 106 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: guests is not was not the issue, but the diversity 107 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: of topics. As the evolution of me and my walk 108 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: with the Lord has changed drastically, the evolution of topics 109 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: has narrowed, and so we've we've entered a identity crisis. 110 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: Who who is Granger Smith? And on top of that, 111 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: what is the Granger Smith podcast? 112 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 2: Now? 113 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: For a long time people have asked me that question, 114 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: and I've been able to answer it. Early on it's 115 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: me telling stories about my life on tour, very easy, 116 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: and then that started evolving into it's me telling stories 117 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: about country songs and the history of them and my 118 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: relation to I remember being on tour with like Josh 119 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: Turner and talking about Josh songs and together, and then 120 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: Justin Moore and Garth Brooks like telling all the stories 121 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: and as I'm interacting in country music, and then that evolved. 122 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: I remember when COVID hit, That's when I started answering questions. 123 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: We were off tour, and the podcast suddenly changed from 124 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: not in the back of Wildflower anymore. Now I'm home, 125 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to answer some questions, and that started off. 126 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: It started off, how did you write this song? Tell 127 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: me the story of Earl Dibbles Junior? What was the 128 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: story of you and your brothers deciding that, you know, 129 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: to come up with ee? And then and then it 130 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: was like hanging out a broke a with this girl. 131 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 2: What do I do? 132 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: That started a new a new thing. And then there 133 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: were people that were saying I lost my dad and 134 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: I'm hurting. What do I do? That changed, and so 135 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: it started getting deeper and it's suddenly this me singing 136 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: Garth Brooks songs. You know, all of a sudden became 137 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: me talking to people about the loss of their dad 138 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: or their loved one. And then we lost riv right 139 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: around this same time. So so now I'm speaking into 140 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: people's lives in a new way with a new authority. 141 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: Not that not that I earned that authority, but that 142 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,119 Speaker 1: I was living it was I was living an ability 143 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: that I didn't sign up for or necessarily want. But 144 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: I was living in an ability to speak speak to 145 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: people in a way that other people can't speak to 146 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: that person because they haven't experienced it. So, for instance, 147 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: I could tell somebody that was struggling, I could say, 148 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: it's time to get up and get dressed and get 149 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: your day going. It's time to live a life again. 150 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: You can't. You can't say that to someone if you 151 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: haven't lived yet, if you haven't done that yourself, who 152 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: are you. 153 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: To tell me that? And now when people ask that question, 154 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 2: you go, well, let me tell you what God did 155 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 2: in my life. Yeah. 156 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: So then, so as as as this is evolving, right 157 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 1: around that same time, when I was answering the questions, 158 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: the Lord woke me up, opened my eyes and went 159 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: from dark to light. Even though I thought it was 160 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: always a Christian. The Lord saved me in a profound way. 161 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: You know. 162 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: Paul Washer, the pastor, or that the preacher, Paul Washer, 163 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: has often told this story. And it's in a little 164 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: bit narrow book called It's Funny. I said that. It's 165 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: called narrow Gate narrow Way. Oh, and it's also a 166 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: narrow book. It's really small, appropriately named. 167 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 2: Then, but he has. 168 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: Said this many times from a pulpit. And then he 169 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: says it in that little book. He says, if I 170 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: came in late to the speaking event, I said, sorry, 171 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: I'm late. I was out here crossing this road and 172 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: a mack truck hit me, and I got up and 173 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: I you know, I collected myself and I came in here. 174 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: But I'm sorry, I'm late. You wouldn't believe me, because 175 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: if you're impacted by something as big as a mack truck, 176 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 1: you are going to be visibly changed. And then he says, 177 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: how much more, when someone has been impacted by the 178 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: living God, wouldn't they be changed? Wouldn't you think they'd 179 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: be changed? That's what happened to me. I then struggled 180 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: with my own identity crisis. Maybe struggle is not the 181 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: right word. I didn't struggle with it. I just kind 182 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: of battled with I'm this, I'm changed, I'm different. Everything 183 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: about me is changed, and I'm still kind of living 184 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: the same brand and promotion and job. 185 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 2: We still got to be put on the same clothes. 186 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: We still put on the same hat, did the same profession. 187 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: Which you call you granger, which I think for most people, 188 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: when they're saved by the Lord, that's that that's kind 189 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: of a normal thing. You're still doing what you're doing. 190 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: But when you're in the public eye, or when your 191 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: your job is self promoting yourself, or when you're speaking 192 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 1: truth into people, those things drastically change. Because now when 193 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: I'm speaking to a guy about your loneliness, I'm not 194 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: giving you self help. I'm giving you the Lord. 195 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: I'm giving you the Gospel. 196 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 1: So how could I not have just always told people 197 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: just the answer really became for all the thousands of 198 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: questions that came to the podcast, the answer just started 199 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: to becoming, you need the Lord. You need to repent 200 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: and believe in the Lord, and believe the Gospel. Believe 201 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: Christ died for you. You need to believe that and 202 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: everything that all your problems will start to change. They 203 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: won't go away, but your perspective will change. And so 204 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 1: as that's evolving, you come in. You come in to 205 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: produce the podcast, because we're already working together on the 206 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: radio show, and we put together that's when we started 207 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: putting together the guests that you know, the apologists, the 208 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: different pastors are coming on. We're talking about more structured 209 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: topics instead of just random questions, and all the while 210 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: we're still suffering somewhat from an identity crisis of what 211 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: is this podcast? And how many more times will we change? 212 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: And I think we've finally hit a point where we go, Okay, 213 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: this is what this is. This is the result of 214 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: the man hit by the truck. Now what you're seeing 215 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: is the final the final result, like everything now from 216 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: now on that you see from me will just be 217 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: further sanctified in the Lord. But my advice is not 218 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: going to change. You know, I might be able to 219 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: fine tune some things, and I'll certainly, I certainly, you know, 220 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 1: would pray that the Lord will give me more wisdom 221 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: for the rest of my life, but it's going to 222 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: be pointing to the same Christ on the same cross 223 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 1: and the same empty tomb. You know, so so because 224 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: of that the podcast, this is the last episode, but 225 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: we're launching a new one, yes, and that's the exciting part. 226 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: And it comes with I mean so many great things, 227 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: want a new name, one more people involved. Yeah, I 228 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 2: mean still right now, we're still gonna do it right here. 229 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: So we got instead of just me, where we've got 230 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: four guys now that have been hit by the truck. 231 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: And the way we're playing on doing this is me. 232 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: Maybe we should rethink the name of the podcast before 233 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: guys truck four or that could be the title of 234 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 2: our first episode on this one. 235 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: Me you yeah, Tyler Barker. Yeah, So the three brothers 236 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: and the fourth brother in Christ.

You know, there's 242 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: four or five six guys and some gals you know, Ashley, 243 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: your wife, Amy, there's some my mom London. There's there's 244 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: a handful people that would be great kind of sitting 245 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: in when one of the four is not here. 246 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 2: And also room for guests, like guests. What we did 247 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: and enjoyed about the Grangersmith podcast that we morphed into 248 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: a little bit there towards the end was yet like 249 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 2: we talked about some of the guests that had been on, 250 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 2: everything from Ray Comfort to John christ is that that 251 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: can also be a part and there's room for that 252 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: in this one. 253 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, should we say the name of the 254 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: new podcast or should we hold this? 255 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: I don't know, It's up to you. Well, they're not here, 256 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: so I mean, it's really up to me and you 257 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 2: right now. 258 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: So we as we as we looked at these four 259 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: guys hit by a truck, you know, as we looked 260 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: at this what we wanted to call it, Instead of 261 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: getting too QTT and too creative, we looked at what 262 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: we were already doing, and we looked at what has 263 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: become the most popular piece of merchandise at EEE has 264 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: been our sub brand of ninety nine four to one, 265 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: which comes from Luke fifteen, when Jesus is giving this 266 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: parable of how many of you if you had one 267 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: hundred sheep and one was lost, how many of you 268 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: would not leave the ninety nine for the one and 269 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: bring them back and then rejoice when the one comes back. 270 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: And so if we look at this podcast being the 271 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: ninety nine for one podcast, we could look at that 272 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: in terms of the purpose, the goal, the refined vision 273 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: of it as it's narrowed down. Well, we'll still have topics, 274 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: we'll have guests, we will have will answer questions, we'll 275 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: do all these things with the four of us. But 276 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: the purpose in it at the end of the day 277 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: would be to reach the one or to engage the 278 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: listeners to be the ones that reach the one. 279 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for sure. 280 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, So the ninety nine for one podcast is what 281 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: the new the new version will be. This is the 282 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: last episode here. It's the last episode even on this 283 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 1: particular channel. If you're listening on the podcast on a 284 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: podcast app, it's likely this might likely be the last 285 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: thing to ever posts here. Ever, if you're listening on 286 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: YouTube on the Granger Smith page, you will still see 287 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: sermons and other things from me, so that's not going away. 288 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: Perhaps even songs or things like that will be on 289 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: this channel, so that this channel is not dying if 290 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: you're watching on the Granger Smith YouTube channel.

The podcast is 297 00:17:59,160 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 2: what the handle is. 298 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, and and that'll refine as the search engine 299 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 1: catches us.

So if you started this 308 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: video thinking, oh no, I've been listening for so long 309 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: and it's over, well not really. It's just changed names 310 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: and changed locations, and you're gonna see some new faces 311 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: on here, but they aren't unfamiliar faces, the same same 312 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: old familiar faces. 313 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 2: Now, will will Parker be shooting anything on this channel? 314 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 2: Parker will not hopefully be any dating advice from Tyler 315 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 2: on this channel. 316 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna get all the above, which is it? 317 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: So we haven't talked about that aspect. Yet another aspect 318 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: that needs to be said besides all my reasons, was that, 319 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: in order to involve all of. 320 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: Us, you Tyler Parker. 321 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: It's weird for Parker to say, hey, come listen to 322 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: an episode I was on on the Granger Smith podcast 323 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: instead of saying, go listen to my podcast. 324 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, because he's not a guest anymore, he's part of 325 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 2: the podcast. 326 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: You could say, go listen to my podcast. Tyler could 327 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: say listen to my podcast. And from all those different 328 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: angles we could post on our own individual socials respectively. 329 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna have four cameras, so everyone will have their own, 330 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, thoughts and isolated videos that they could use. 331 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: So this is no longer my podcast. It's it is, 332 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: but it's more than my podcast. It's also yours, and 333 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: his and his, and maybe even Aaron's who's sitting here 334 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: without a microphone right now in the room of us. 335 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 2: Well, he's got two.
