1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Hey, guys, I'm gaily sure and this is too much 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: to say asking question. Tell it out you For this 3 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 1: week's episode, I'm going to be drinking white wine because 4 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: I'm feeling really fucking chaotic. So TikTok has been really 5 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: fun this week. I've been uploading some unreleased original songs. 6 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: If you guys are interested in what I'm doing musically, 7 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: TikTok's usually the best way to check it out. I 8 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: post little choruses and verses of things that aren't released 9 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: and just kind of see if you guys like them 10 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: enough for me to think about releasing them. But I 11 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: put out to that are pretty aggressive and I'm feeling spicy. 12 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm just TikTok has me feeling spicy. 13 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: But what I want to talk about this week is 14 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: a question I've gotten asked a few times in interviews 15 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: and definitely gotten asked by my for And the question 16 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: is when does me sharing my story turn into me 17 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: over sharing someone else's What right to privacy do the 18 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: people and the characters in my life have from being 19 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: written about in my art? And that's a very valid question. 20 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: I have had to think about this a lot because 21 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: I put people's names and songs I put places I 22 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 1: talk about my family. It's it's very very obvious. If 23 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: you follow me on social media and listen to my songs, 24 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: you could pretty easily put together who some of them 25 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: are about. I think I take a very different approach 26 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: to it with my family than I do anything else. 27 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: But before I released Open Book, I had to call 28 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: them and kind of have a little bit of a 29 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: chat with my mom and dad specifically and let them 30 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: know what was coming. I sent my sister Courtney Escape 31 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: before it came out. She's not I don't think about 32 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: her on that, but like I wanted her to kind 33 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: of give me her opinion. And honestly, a lot of 34 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: my siblings really like the album because it's all stuff 35 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: that they grew up seeing and watching, and they relate 36 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: to it more than anybody else on the planet because 37 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: I'm singing about their parents too. But I would never 38 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: put someone in my family on blast just for ships 39 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: and giggles. Like I think, you know when I say 40 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: I don't really like dating assholes, but I do it 41 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: because I have a weird relationship with my dad. On 42 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: my song Gatsby, I know that that wasn't easy for 43 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: my dad to hear. However, it's completely true, and it 44 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: is no secret that I've had a strained relationship with 45 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: him growing up and now we're like in such a 46 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 1: great place and I'm so thankful to have my dad 47 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: in my life. But it's not a secret, you know, 48 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:48,839 Speaker 1: like we spend a lot of time not talking, and 49 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: so you know, he was like, Okay, yeah, we do 50 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: have a weird relationship for working on it now, but 51 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 1: it's the truth. And so I put it in a song. 52 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: But I remember after Open Book came out, my dad 53 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: was like, do I really make you date assholes? I'm like, well, no, 54 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: money made me date assholes, but it certainly was an 55 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: ingredient in the recipe for me dating a bunch of losers. 56 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: I think there are some things in my family I 57 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: wouldn't sing about. I think that some stories definitely belong 58 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: a lot more to somebody else than they do to me, 59 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: and even though I may have witnessed them, it's still 60 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: not my place to share them. I think my approach 61 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: to this is really just too be okay with writing 62 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: about things that happened to me that affected me, and 63 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: maybe there are a lot of other people involved, but 64 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: it's still my story, and it's kind of the price 65 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: of doing something not great is the person you do 66 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: it to. You might tell people, you know, and I 67 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: think for me being a songwriter, that comes with its 68 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: own unken disclaimer that I'm not only just going to 69 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: tell people, but I might put it on an album. 70 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: So family is is definitely one thing when it comes 71 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: to over sharing in my songs, but I have a 72 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: different policy when it comes to literally everything else. I 73 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: don't really know what my ex boyfriend thinks of open Book. 74 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: The only thing I ever heard was him commenting on 75 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: Effie Forever. I heard this from a friend of a 76 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: friend and he said it was too literal, and I 77 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: was like, well, that's not that's not him saying it's 78 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: not true, you know. Like the only line on open 79 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: Book that isn't true is I never stole candles from 80 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: a Catholic church. I had a bunch of them. I 81 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: actually had a fan who's a priest send me some 82 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: from his Catholic church the other day. That was really cool. 83 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: They're like legitimate, really cool church candles. But I never 84 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: stole them. That's just a line in Lullaby, and that 85 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: is literally the only line that is not true on 86 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: that entire record. I might fib about candles, but I 87 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: do not lie about people. So when it comes to 88 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: my ex boyfriend, I'm like, forgive me if I don't 89 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: feel bad for you. Because A I had been a 90 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: songwriter the entire time we've been together, so he knew 91 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: he heard my songs when we first started dating that 92 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: were about my last boyfriend and how he, you know, 93 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 1: had messed up and whatnot, or songs about how I 94 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 1: messed up, And he knew that I sang about it 95 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: and I wrote about it. He would come to my shows. 96 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: It was not a secret. So if you know that 97 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: about somebody, hey, why would you cheat on them? I mean, 98 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: I understand now that like that's how it had to happen, 99 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: But why would you think I'm not going to write 100 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: about it and I'm going to make an exception for you, 101 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: especially when you sunk up like really, really bad. So 102 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: I think he kind of handled it pretty well, honestly. 103 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 1: I mean, the fact that we never talked about it 104 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: was nice, but also the fact that like he's not 105 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: running around talking ship. I think he definitely knew it 106 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: was coming. I don't think it was going to be 107 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: a secret when we were in the process of breaking up. 108 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: He did get upset with me because I posted this 109 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: was like so middle school. I was, you know, in 110 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: my twenties. But I posted a really sad, slowed down 111 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: cover of should Have Said No by Taylor Swift on 112 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: my Instagram story and he was like, can you delete that? 113 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: And I was like, no, I won't delete that. So 114 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: he got more upset with me about a cover than 115 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: he did anything else. But and then as far as 116 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: other situations, like I dated this guy in l a 117 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 1: and I wrote l a X about him and Lying 118 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: to Myself as well as a few others, and he 119 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: kind of always liked that I wrote songs about him, 120 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: whether they were nice or not. Like he was definitely 121 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: in on the joke and thought it was funny. And 122 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, when Lying to Myself came out, he sent 123 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: me this really nice text and it just made me 124 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: super happy. And you know, he's always been a good 125 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: sport about it and l a X, like I kind 126 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: of roast him. I don't know if you guys have 127 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: heard that one, but that one's on my TikTok too, 128 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: and I think it will be coming out this year. 129 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: Fingers crossed. I like literally roast him in the song, 130 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: and he loves it. I mean, I think he likes 131 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 1: the attention from people like commenting on it and trying 132 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: to guess here it's about and stuff. So that's really funny. 133 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: But some people don't take it badly at all when 134 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: you write songs about them. I had a way too long, 135 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: stretched out situationship with this guy who out of It 136 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: is about, and I would regularly get drunk and send 137 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: him a song I'd written about him and not have 138 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: a conversation, which is super like not mature and not 139 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: a great way to handle conflict or emotions. And I 140 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: would just be like, you know, I'd be like I'm fine, 141 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: and then i'd send him this song and it would 142 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: just be like, you know, why don't you love me? 143 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: Like ship like that. I mean, not exactly that, but 144 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: like that was like a heavy undertone. Why don't you 145 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: love me? Was like a major theme during that time 146 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: in my life towards this guy, well as his heart. 147 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: To be fair, he also wrote songs about me, though, 148 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: but he didn't use them as a way to communicate. 149 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: He just wrote them. So it's all right, I live, 150 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: I learned, But what I really wanted to talk about 151 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: on this episode. And this is what made me think 152 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: of the idea is I uploaded this song called Argentina 153 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: on TikTok and at the time of me recording this, 154 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: it has let's check, fifty six thousand views and it's 155 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: like a lot for TikTok for sure. Um, I wrote 156 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: it about my boyfriend's ex girlfriend, who you know, I 157 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: don't even need to explain it to you. Just go 158 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: listen to the song and then I only talk shit 159 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: and lyrics and I'm not going to get all my 160 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: podcast and put around blast. But I said a lot 161 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: of things in that song that I felt, And you know, 162 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,599 Speaker 1: I think it's just disrespectful. If you know somebody is 163 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: dating someone two try to get back with them. I 164 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: think that that's like base line, bare minimum respect for 165 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: other people. So I I feel like she was really 166 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 1: annoying and I wrote a song about it. And also 167 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: and I'm so glad that she broke his heart, like 168 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: for sure, because I am so in love and I 169 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: ended up doing really well. But it's basically skater boy, 170 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: Like the situation is literally skater skaterboy, down to the 171 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: fact that she does ballet, so it's hilarious. So that's 172 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: pretty much my life right now. And so I'm really 173 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: really glad that she took him for granted and didn't 174 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: know what she had. However, knowing how amazing my boyfriend 175 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: Sam is and knowing how like great of a boyfriend 176 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: he is, and he's just so fucking fun and I 177 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: just really adore him. Knowing that she could just treat 178 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: him like ship really pisses me off, like the way 179 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: that like, you know, if one of your girlfriends had 180 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 1: a guy doing that to her, you'd be piste off. 181 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: It's just somebody love getting mistreated and it's not cool, 182 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: and you know, I get really protective. I'm a super 183 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: loyal person. So a lot of it came from there. 184 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: And obviously there's some sort of jealousy in there. I'm 185 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 1: not going to be stupid and pretend there isn't. I mean, 186 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: she's like a gorgeous ballerina and she's from Argentina and 187 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: very mysterious. Like I'm not telling you I'm not jealous 188 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: or I've never been jealous. But the big emotion for 189 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: me when writing that song was how pissed I was 190 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: that she had treated him like ship. And I know 191 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: that that's kind of gray area when it comes to 192 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: sharing people's stories because I've never met this girl. I'm 193 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: never going to meet this girl, and she doesn't know me. 194 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: She never asked to be put in a song, and 195 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: the song is very detailed, and I I don't know 196 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: if she's seen it. She used to watch my Instagram 197 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: stories like all the time, and I haven't checked to 198 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: see if she does in a while because honestly, I 199 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: just don't care anymore. But you know, she might see it, 200 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: and I don't know how do I feel about that? 201 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: And Sam doesn't know how he feels about that. But 202 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: he loves this song, like from the moment I wrote it, 203 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 1: because he really just thinks it's one of the best 204 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: I've ever written. And I was like, Hey, Sam, WHI 205 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: should upload on TikTok. He's like, I don't know. I 206 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: feel like Argentina would be really good or amy And 207 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: I was like, all right, Argentina it is. You suggested it, 208 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: Here we fucking go. And so now, fifty six thousand 209 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: views later, sitting Bertie, people like it. I'm really excited. 210 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: And I also would like to clarify that I'm fully 211 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: aware that I pronounced buenos Aris wrong. But if you 212 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: say buenos Aries, it rhymes with Mary, so you know 213 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: I had. I had to do it to him. I'm 214 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: drinking this like six or seven dollar you know Gregio 215 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: called Pinetti Nat. It's really fucking good. Just a brief introduction. 216 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: This is not sponsored. I'm just really enjoying this wine, 217 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: and I'm really enjoying the amount of money that came 218 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: out of my bank account in order to enjoy this wine. 219 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: I think eight dollars is the perfect amount to spend 220 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: on nearly anything. Now, speaking of the song aiming that 221 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: I just brought up, that is interesting territory. I think 222 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: by the time that this podcast goes up, I will 223 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: have uploaded this to TikTok. So I'm talking about this 224 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: before I've done it, but I know I'm going to 225 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: do it. And I wrote this song with Candy Carpenter, 226 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: who's my best friend, and John Caldwell, who is one 227 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: of my closest friends. I wrote a bunch of open 228 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: book with both of them, and that's just a really 229 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: safe space. I've had this thing on my mind for 230 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: a long time because after my ex boyfriend I broke up, 231 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: and I've talked about this in a lot of songs 232 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: like how he slept with my friends and whatever, because 233 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: that was honestly worse than anything he did when we 234 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: were together. Was like how he acted it after we 235 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: broke up, and how these people who I thought were 236 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: my friends acted and that's just shitty. And obviously I 237 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 1: have my song Alice, but that was more me like 238 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: warning her because I care about her and or you know, 239 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: I cared, but this one is just angry because I'm 240 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: just pissed and at this point, like I'm over him, 241 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm not over this situation because I've never been treated 242 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: this way by a friend, and I've had some friend breakups. 243 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: We did a podcast episode about this. I think I 244 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: may have hinted to this situation, but moral of the story, 245 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: I'd always suspected after we broke up that they had 246 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: like hooked up, because I like went to his office 247 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: one time and she was there and she was acting 248 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: really weird, and she had been borrowing my guitar for 249 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: like a year, Like I literally let this girl borrow 250 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: my guitar. I took her to see Katie Perry when 251 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: I had pit tickets, like I thought we were really 252 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: good friends. I'd give her all my old clothes, and like, 253 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: I just thought we were friends, and it had been 254 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: like probably two years that we hung out, and um, 255 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 1: I just you know, really liked her and wanted to 256 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: help her out when I could, So I let her 257 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: brought my guitar for a full year, and she thanked 258 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: me by hooking up with my ex boyfriend and writing 259 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: an entire album about him, like partially on this guitar 260 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: that I lent her. And so I figured out something 261 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: was really wrong when she just gave it to a 262 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: mutual friend to pick up, Like she was like, Oh, 263 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm done with your guitar, you can go get it 264 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: so and So's house, and I was like, Okay, that's weird. 265 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: But I kind of just was like, Okay, no, it's 266 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: not that big of a deal. You're being weird whatever. 267 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: And I ran into her one time at a bar 268 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: after him and I had been broken up for like 269 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: six months, and he was trying to flirt with me, 270 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: and then I noticed he was over across the room 271 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: talking to her, and obviously, like I knew they knew 272 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: each other, like we all hung out Wound and I 273 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: were dating, and he was like looking over her shoulder 274 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: at me trying to make sure I knew that he 275 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: was talking to her, and I was like, what the fuck? 276 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: And then I was just drunk enough to be feeling 277 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: extra spicy, and he goes to the bathroom and I 278 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: just march across the floor, red door, and I go 279 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: up to her. And this is my impression of me 280 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: drunk saying this. I am saying this because I'm your friend. 281 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: But there is a chess game being played right now 282 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: on You are not on either side of the board. 283 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: You are on the board. You're you're being played and 284 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: and you should not be doing that. And somethin in 285 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: my head I was like, there's a chess game being 286 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: played and you're not on the other side, You're on 287 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: the board. I'm so fucking dramatic, but I know that. 288 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: I was like, and it's just on the board. Yeah, 289 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: So anyways, but she was like, I don't know what 290 00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: you're talking about. And I was like, was I just 291 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: like a psychopath who said that? And then my X 292 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: and I got drinks. I know, I know it was 293 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: a horrible idea. We had drinks like shortly after that, 294 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: and I looked at him and I was like, I 295 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: know about you and Amy and He was like, what 296 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: are you talking about? And I was like, I don't know. 297 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: I just know about you guys. And he's like, how 298 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: did How did you know? And I was like because 299 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: I'm psychic, and yeah, so full crazy pants there. Um Kaylee, 300 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: that's called a gut feeling. You're not Harry Potter calmed down. 301 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: So anyways, but I so I kind of still wanted 302 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: to believe that hadn't happened because I knew he was 303 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: capable of that. I was like, fuck him whatever, But 304 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: I never thought that like this friend would be capable 305 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: of that. So in my head, I was like, no, 306 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: I mean, dramatic never happened. It was a different amy. 307 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: He wasn't normod he's talking about. That whole thing with 308 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: the chess board was just me being stupid narrator. It 309 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: was not me being stupid, although this is my podcast, 310 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: so I suppose I'm the narrator. Anyways, you get the 311 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: point because during the very beginning of Quarantine, when I 312 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: was like full like depression, laying in bed doing nothing, 313 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: had had what felt like my entire career taken away 314 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: from me. This is when we were all doing like 315 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: really really really bad, Like I know that everybody's been 316 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: doing bad during Corona, but this was like April when 317 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: we were all like what the fuck? And I see 318 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 1: that she put out an album because it came up 319 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: on my Spotify Discover weekly, and I was like, I'm 320 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: gonna listen to this. I wonder what she's been up to, 321 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,479 Speaker 1: and I always thought her music was great. And then um, 322 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: I make it about halfway through and there's a song 323 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: with his name in it, and it becomes increasingly apparent 324 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: that the entire album is about my ex boyfriend. And 325 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: what blows my mind is I don't think he's interesting 326 00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: enough to have inspired so many albums and so many 327 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: songs about him. It's just so funny how sometimes the 328 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: music can be more interesting than the mutes. But anyways, 329 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: actually kind of liked your album, aside from the fact 330 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 1: that I had to listen to my ex boyfriend's name 331 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: in it, and then kind of I mean, I liked it. 332 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: If I had not been personally involved, I would have 333 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: liked it. But it was like two in the morning, 334 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: my boyfriend was asleep, and I was just sitting there 335 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: in bed, just like so angry, having just listened to 336 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: this song, and I was like, I don't know where 337 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: to put this anger. I don't know what to do 338 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: about it. I can't like, I'm not going to text her. 339 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: And then I looked and she had blocked me on 340 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: all social media and I was like, what the fuck? 341 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: And it was the weirdest thing because aside from the 342 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 1: chessboard comment, I had said nothing, and I was so 343 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: drunk that could have meant anything, that could have literally 344 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: meant anything. So anyways, I wrote this song called Amy 345 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: about it because I'm still pissed, and I'll be honest 346 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: about that. It sucks. And I'd had the idea for 347 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: this song for a while, but I finally found the 348 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: way that I wanted to write it, and it wasn't 349 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: kind to La. So I don't know, like so so 350 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: my personal take with that, And maybe I'm just making 351 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: myself feel better about roasting this girl. But if you 352 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: do something like that and you're a songwriter, like you 353 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: don't get to put my ex boyfriend's name in a 354 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: song that I introduced you to, you know, you don't 355 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: get to put his name in a song and not 356 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: let me put yours in a song. Fuck that, no, ma'am. 357 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: So anyways, by now I think Amy will probably be 358 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: up on my TikTok.
