Speaker 1: Hey guys, Bobby Here Sunday Sampler. It's a bunch of
Speaker 1: cool podcast clips. We got a lot on the Bobby Cast.
Speaker 1: I sat down with Zach Williams. He was working at
Speaker 1: a church when he got his record deal after twenty
Speaker 1: years of trying to make it big and quitting music.
Speaker 1: Crazy story coming up, movie Mike, coming up, Sore Losers.
Speaker 1: But we just want to give you a taste in
Speaker 1: case you haven't tasted yet, and maybe you want to
Speaker 1: go subscribe to one of these.
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go.
Speaker 3: Let's start it off with the Bobbycast.
Speaker 4: Looking for You? Is that that song for me? That's
Speaker 4: like it just kind of says it. It's it's you
Speaker 4: know it. It tells the story of the road that
Speaker 4: I've been on for so many years and in my
Speaker 4: past and what I've gone through, and you know, I
Speaker 4: grew up I kind of said it well ago. You know,
Speaker 4: I grew up every night playing music on stages when
Speaker 4: I was in the band, smoky bars and nightclubs, and
Speaker 4: it was great for two or three hours while you're
Speaker 4: on stage, and then you'd step off, you'd be empty,
Speaker 4: and you know, drugs, alcohol, relationships, chasing fortune, fame, It
Speaker 4: was all that, like, what can make that better?
Speaker 5: What can make me feel better?
Speaker 4: And and it did for a season, you know, it
Speaker 4: was like and then that goes away.
Speaker 5: And my dad, when I.
Speaker 4: Was working for him on the construction site, we would
Speaker 4: sit down on these job sites and he would it'd
Speaker 4: always tell me. He would say, hey, I don't I
Speaker 4: don't have an answer for you other than Jesus, like
Speaker 4: you need to get your life together. And I didn't
Speaker 4: want to hear it at the time, but I knew
Speaker 4: he was telling the truth. And I used to hear
Speaker 4: this saying as a kid, it's the first place you
Speaker 4: find something is always the last place you look for it.
Speaker 4: And I was like, I've tried everything else, but Jesus
Speaker 4: might as well give it a shot. And it was
Speaker 4: like when I got in that place in my life
Speaker 4: and I you know, I was like, God, can you.
Speaker 5: Help me out?
Speaker 4: He was there and I realized all my life I've
Speaker 4: been looking for him, like all those things that I've
Speaker 4: been trying to find to feel that hole that was
Speaker 4: actually in search of him.
Speaker 5: And so yeah, when I played that song for Dolly, she.
Speaker 3: Was like I was going there now, Yeah, dude, she was.
Speaker 4: We were in Dollywood working on her Christmas Christmas thing,
Speaker 4: and she asked me what I was working on, and
Speaker 4: I told her that I told her this record and
Speaker 4: I said, I actually got the title from it, from
Speaker 4: this song called looking for You.
Speaker 5: I said, there's a lyric that.
Speaker 4: Says, down one hundred highways of empty pursuit and a
Speaker 4: thousand foolish things I went through.
Speaker 5: Didn't know it back then, but now I do.
Speaker 4: I was looking for You and she's like playing the song,
Speaker 4: and so I play it for and she's, I mean.
Speaker 3: Is there a little bit of pressure again?
Speaker 2: You know you're good?
Speaker 3: There was, but it's Dolly.
Speaker 5: It was Dollie, but she was.
Speaker 4: Dolly has a way of like making you feel like
Speaker 4: you're the only person in the room. And she she
Speaker 4: is so down to earth and so humble and just
Speaker 4: so so much fun. She's like the I've told people,
Speaker 4: she's like the the fun ant at Christmas that everybody
Speaker 4: wants to see and hang out with.
Speaker 5: You know, It's like.
Speaker 3: She's very warm and you always feel a valued Yeah.
Speaker 4: And just to even make it even better, that day,
Speaker 4: while all this was going on, we were I was
Speaker 4: on the Keto die. A couple of her guys on
Speaker 4: crew were on a ketto Die and she's like, she's like,
Speaker 4: you know what we do. She was like, it's really good.
Speaker 4: She's like they got these poor ground here at dolly Wood.
Speaker 4: She was like, and I make this blue cheese dip
Speaker 4: and we eat poor crands and blue cheese when we're
Speaker 4: on keto and I was like, oh yeah, and she's
Speaker 4: like yeah, I'm gonna send somebody out to get the
Speaker 4: stuff and I'll make it for you. So she sends
Speaker 4: somebody out to get all this stuff and we're sitting
Speaker 4: there eating poor crounds and blue cheese dip that she
Speaker 4: just made, and I'm about to play on my song.
Speaker 4: And so I played the song and she's like coming along.
Speaker 5: Harmony parts and I was like, oh, that's really cool.
Speaker 4: And then as the song's finished, and she's like wiping
Speaker 4: tears out of her eyes and she slaps me on
Speaker 4: the leg and she's like, za, she said that's beautiful.
Speaker 5: She said why didn't you ask me to sing on
Speaker 5: that one?
Speaker 4: And I was like, I didn't know if you'd want to,
Speaker 4: and she was like, well, I thought we did pretty
Speaker 4: good on the first one.
Speaker 5: And I was like, you're right. And I still thought
Speaker 5: she was joking.
Speaker 4: And so a year later, we were trying to decide
Speaker 4: what we wanted to do as a you know, a
Speaker 4: last single on this record, and I said, well, Dollie
Speaker 4: did say she would sing on it, and I didn't
Speaker 4: know if she really would.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a weird thing to follow through on, like
Speaker 1: follow up on it, because you're like, yeah, I didn't
Speaker 1: know said it.
Speaker 3: But again it's you're in like the moment.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I did.
Speaker 4: We we uh, we reached out to here on like
Speaker 4: a Thursday Friday. She said, yeah, send it over Monday.
Speaker 4: She sent it back and it was done with her vocals,
Speaker 4: like over the weekend.
Speaker 5: She did it.
Speaker 3: What's really cool?
Speaker 1: First of all is that and that you have and
Speaker 1: have have had a relationship with Dollie. But secondly, you've
Speaker 1: want a Grammy with Dolly? Yeah, like that kind of
Speaker 1: trumps everybody. That kind of trump's stories of like doing
Speaker 1: charity work with Dolly, Like you want to grammy?
Speaker 3: Like that's awesome.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's man, I know it was.
Speaker 3: Does the grammy have your names on it?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: So you on your Grammy. It's like in the car
Speaker 3: it has pretty cool man.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: What was wild though, is that day, you know that
Speaker 4: we that was nearing COVID. So the Grammys were a
Speaker 4: lot different that year. And we had a little Grammy
Speaker 4: party at my house and we were supposed to supposed
Speaker 4: to have like found out like late in the afternoon
Speaker 4: when the when it was going to be announced, and
Speaker 4: I had all these people coming over to my house
Speaker 4: and we were all going to be sitting there watching
Speaker 4: it at the same time. And then they were like, no,
Speaker 4: we're going to announce it early. So they were going
Speaker 4: to announce my like noon and I was like, oh, man,
Speaker 4: if we lose this, this party's gonna say, like, this
Speaker 4: is going to be bad.
Speaker 5: All these people showing up.
Speaker 4: And when they announced it, they announced Casey Bethard's name first,
Speaker 4: and I thought, oh, we freaking lost. And now I
Speaker 4: was like, wait a minute. He wrote the song with me.
Speaker 4: I was like, we won, like and it was just
Speaker 4: like and so I call Casey, Me and Jonathan call
Speaker 4: Casey and he's like he's in Florida on the beach
Speaker 4: making a sandwich in his beach house and I'm like, hey, dude,
Speaker 4: we just want to Grammy and he was like, are
Speaker 4: you kidding me? He wasn't even watching it. I was
Speaker 4: just like, yeah, that's that sounds a bit like him. Dang,
Speaker 4: that's it was really.
Speaker 3: Cool, It's really cool. It's super cool that.
Speaker 1: Again, I would just be my neurosis would go, I
Speaker 1: know Dolly said that, but did.
Speaker 3: She really mean it?
Speaker 1: That's exactly what I don't want to like bother her
Speaker 1: because I already have a good relationship.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was, Yeah, she's been so she's been so
Speaker 4: sweet to us, like we we go down and rehearsing
Speaker 4: her place down on Laverne, Like it's just she's been like, hey,
Speaker 4: if you guys want to come down to use it
Speaker 4: for rehearsals, Like, are you serious?
Speaker 5: She's like yeah, wow.
Speaker 1: She just sent So I have the these little funkos,
Speaker 1: which I've only been introduced lately to the funko culture.
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with the funko? I don't know what
Speaker 1: that is, Mike, will you hand me the dollie funk
Speaker 1: so I have? Again, I didn't know what they were.
Speaker 5: But that as like something my kids might.
Speaker 1: Probably athletes have them, celebrities have them. And so I
Speaker 1: bought a few dolli ones and so this is a
Speaker 1: Dolly one and I sent them over to her and
Speaker 1: she signed them for me, and then I auction them
Speaker 1: off for a Saint Day.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they don't come signed and Dollie doesn't have
Speaker 1: any sign you can get. But I just sent him
Speaker 1: over and she sent him back all signed. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was like, and I don't want to ask her
Speaker 1: to do anything, but I know that if it happens
Speaker 1: to do with something like nice or good, she's gonna
Speaker 1: do it. Oh, but it's still like, I don't want
Speaker 1: to bother her. But she's yeah, No, she's awesome. She's
Speaker 1: on my comedy special.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's great.
Speaker 6: It's crazy.
Speaker 4: She was telling me she's got a she was telling
Speaker 4: me she's got a Broadway musical coming out in twenty
Speaker 4: twenty five.
Speaker 3: I'm sure to be a massive success and it deserves
Speaker 3: to be.
Speaker 7: Kind good.
Speaker 3: Levee cast up little food for yourself.
Speaker 8: Life.
Speaker 6: Oh it's pretty bad.
Speaker 3: Hey, it's pretty beautiful.
Speaker 5: Beautiful.
Speaker 9: That for a little more exciting, said he you're kicking
Speaker 9: with full Thing with Amy Brown.
Speaker 10: Hey, it's Amy Brown from Four Things with Amy Brown.
Speaker 10: And here's what we talked about this week on my podcast.
Speaker 10: All Right, I kind of want to talk about the
Speaker 10: Taco bell motto. Here for a second, because your great
Speaker 10: grandma and grandpa owned Taco Bells, and then your grandpa
Speaker 10: ended up running a lot of them, to which my
Speaker 10: mom was then his assistant. So she worked at Taco
Speaker 10: Bell for twenty five years. And then my ex husband's
Speaker 10: dad also worked there.
Speaker 11: In the office.
Speaker 10: I mean the tangled webs we weave, because then my
Speaker 10: dad ended up dating your great grandmother, so your grandpa
Speaker 10: was dating you know. Yeah, it gets complicated. So see,
Speaker 10: we really welcome everybody, everybody as everyone everyone is welcomed us.
Speaker 10: But a Taco Bell saying was serving on both sides
Speaker 10: of the counter. And even my mom her work email,
Speaker 10: she would sign off like her signature on her email
Speaker 10: was here to serve. I know, a big motto within
Speaker 10: at least that franchise group. So Taco Bell is a
Speaker 10: franchise in our family. That was a franchise that was
Speaker 10: based in Austin, and they would all go to the
Speaker 10: office every day, and that was a company that cultivated
Speaker 10: a lot of connection and community and love and service.
Speaker 10: And I know that your mom talks about serving both
Speaker 10: sides of the counter and that if there are a
Speaker 10: group of people coming over, everybody kind of jumps in
Speaker 10: and serves. She's not also just serving y'all all over,
Speaker 10: like y'all come and are part of it too. I'm
Speaker 10: picturing like the island table, like everybody's just doing their part.
Speaker 10: Like say, if it does turn into more of a
Speaker 10: sit down dinner, it's like everybody is welcome to start
Speaker 10: pitching in and serving each other.
Speaker 12: Yeah, that was one thing that we always did. We
Speaker 12: would always set timers and do pus, which is a
Speaker 12: pickup session, and so we do like seven minute pus.
Speaker 12: And it was something where my friends, especially my best
Speaker 12: friends who were over all the time in high school,
Speaker 12: and my brother's friends do the exact same thing. You'll
Speaker 12: find the teenage boys around the kitchen cleaning up after
Speaker 12: dinner because they know if they're coming over that they're
Speaker 12: probably going to get fed a really good meal. And
Speaker 12: that happens every single time, whether it's like sausage on
Speaker 12: the fire or a really nice like pork tacos, anything,
Speaker 12: but they always know if they're gonna come eat, Like
Speaker 12: we're all mutually gonna help my mom clean up because
Speaker 12: she does so much for us, And it was something
Speaker 12: that was expected that as my parents are serving us,
Speaker 12: we will serve them back. And it was something I
Speaker 12: remember at first feeling nervous, like, oh, I don't want
Speaker 12: to make my friends have to help clean up in
Speaker 12: the kitchen. But then it just became this fun thing
Speaker 12: like turn on music, set a time, or see how
Speaker 12: fast you can get it done. That was a way
Speaker 12: where we kind of created mutual like, Okay, I'm allowed
Speaker 12: to have people over if we're gonna serve on both
Speaker 12: ends of this, like we'll serve my.
Speaker 11: Family and then my mom and dad.
Speaker 12: They'll serve us in probably so many more ways than
Speaker 12: me and my friends would serve.
Speaker 11: Them, but still it's a little mutual exchange.
Speaker 10: Now. I love that that expectation was set up and
Speaker 10: it's just something that's been in their family and they knew, hey,
Speaker 10: this is how we're going to do it. And I
Speaker 10: think that it takes the pressure off too of some
Speaker 10: parents that are maybe wanting to create this space and
Speaker 10: they feel like they have to burn themselves out to serve, serve,
Speaker 10: serve their kids. And really it invites it to be
Speaker 10: like this is an experience for all of us, and
Speaker 10: then it welcomes even more people to come because it
Speaker 10: makes it less stressful. And I know that your parents
Speaker 10: were good at Okay, if somebody needs a ride and
Speaker 10: they want to come, we'll go pick them up, or
Speaker 10: we can give them a ride home, or yes, making
Speaker 10: sure people can carpool, and just being that type of family.
Speaker 10: And I'll admit sometimes I don't like I'll just have
Speaker 10: certain things going on and I don't pause to think, Okay,
Speaker 10: if I just go create this space for my kids
Speaker 10: by allowing them to get somewhere or have others come
Speaker 10: over here, they're going to remember me pausing life to
Speaker 10: do that. I really think that, even listening to you talk,
Speaker 10: I feel as though they absolutely will remember if for
Speaker 10: whatever reason, one of their friends couldn't make it and
Speaker 10: I could pause and figure out how to get someone over.
Speaker 12: It means a lot more to them than they'll show
Speaker 12: then they'll show in the time being. But then those
Speaker 12: are all the things that now, being three years out
Speaker 12: of the house, I still remember all the little things
Speaker 12: my parents would do well.
Speaker 10: And then at the coffee shop, well, Root Design is
Speaker 10: the design build firm. Then there's the coffee shop, Root
Speaker 10: House coffee. But there's hats and cups, there's a logo,
Speaker 10: a theme of Root for each other. Do you think
Speaker 10: that that's been a big part of your friend's experience
Speaker 10: when they're over, did they feel rooted for?
Speaker 12: Yeah, because I'd watched my dad like specifically just go
Speaker 12: and hang out with my friends without me even being
Speaker 12: there and talk about life. And my dad was someone
Speaker 12: who he genuinely knew the core things going on in
Speaker 12: my friends' lives and he cares about it and that
Speaker 12: means the world to me, and in turn, like my
Speaker 12: friends feel rooted for, and then they root for my family.
Speaker 12: We had all of my friends working at the coffee
Speaker 12: shop at one point. That was the best thing ever
Speaker 12: in high school. But yeah, just like mutually all rooting
Speaker 12: for each other, and that kind of starts at the
Speaker 12: house when people are over and they feel seen and
Speaker 12: taken care of, and my mom and dad just have
Speaker 12: such a welcoming spirit.
Speaker 11: It's hard.
Speaker 12: It's hard for my friends not to feel rooted for
Speaker 12: when they're over at our house, which makes me just
Speaker 12: so grateful for my parents and everything they do.
Speaker 11: I mean, watching you tah.
Speaker 13: They're going to love this episode.
Speaker 10: Well, I truly am encouraged because I could be better
Speaker 10: at that, and I need to be more intentional about
Speaker 10: asking more questions and trying to get to know the
Speaker 10: kids well that my kids are hanging out with and
Speaker 10: said just letting them go off and do their thing,
Speaker 10: and that they're probably not going to be as annoyed
Speaker 10: as I would think.
Speaker 2: We're gonna do it live. We are the one, two,
Speaker 2: three sore Losers.
Speaker 8: What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
Speaker 8: about sports. I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions,
Speaker 8: because I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.
Speaker 2: It's Sison. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.
Speaker 2: I live on the north side of Nashville with bays
Speaker 2: Or my wife. We do have a farm. It's beautiful,
Speaker 2: a lot of acreage, no animals, a lot of crops.
Speaker 2: Hopefully soon corn pumpkins, rye. I believe maybe a little
Speaker 2: fescue to be determined.
Speaker 8: Over to you, coach, And here's a clip from this
Speaker 8: week's episode of The Sore Losers.
Speaker 2: I got a message. We can just say it's an email,
Speaker 2: but it's from our Facebook.
Speaker 6: I'd love to hear it.
Speaker 2: This is a deeper, deeper way to think about things.
Speaker 2: So this is the next level. A lot of our
Speaker 2: truckers aren't even going to understand this because it's one
Speaker 2: step tug boaters as well, not a lot of deep thinkers.
Speaker 2: But it's on our Facebook. Christopher Toefer. Almost this is
Speaker 2: about us in that internship that somebody thought they were
Speaker 2: applying for, and there was people execs and upper managineah,
Speaker 2: we're wondering are we hiring people? Chris says. It sounds
Speaker 2: like whoever applied has an end with the higher ups
Speaker 2: and their connection worked because they have the exect contacting
Speaker 2: you guys. So I would tell them that you guys
Speaker 2: were interested in an intern higher but don't know how
Speaker 2: to go exactly about it. And then since you have
Speaker 2: their attention already and they're emailing you and see how
Speaker 2: they can now help us, and maybe they'll hook you
Speaker 2: guys up and won't have to pay anything out of
Speaker 2: your pockets, and we officially have an arnold. So we
Speaker 2: reverse osmosis the emails about the inquiry about the internship
Speaker 2: and say, well, yes, we're interested in doing this.
Speaker 8: So we go back to the exec and be like, wow,
Speaker 8: you guys are looking to hire someone for us. That
Speaker 8: is amazing. How much were you guys going to pay
Speaker 8: this person?
Speaker 2: Because we have the exec's attention and we just said, oh,
Speaker 2: wrong house, we're not here. We set the guy on
Speaker 2: his way.
Speaker 6: Dude.
Speaker 8: That is like the scene in Dumb and Dumber when
Speaker 8: they get the hotty bus and they're like, hi, we're
Speaker 8: suit is and they run down the bus and they're like,
Speaker 8: oh my god, they're getting on the bus. They're getting
Speaker 8: on the bus and they say, nope, it is that way.
Speaker 8: Oh my gosh. We did that with the exact We
Speaker 8: are Larry, Harry and Lloyd. We are Harry and Lloyd
Speaker 8: because the exec is right there for the taking. We
Speaker 8: have a chance to reach out to him and say, hey,
Speaker 8: can you help us with this?
Speaker 6: This and this? And instead we slam the door shut.
Speaker 6: What an analogy? Can't believe this?
Speaker 2: Floyd, First, Mary dumps us and the cops take our
Speaker 2: nest egg, and then our hot breaks down.
Speaker 7: Yeah, when are we ever going to catch a break.
Speaker 6: Plus the hotties.
Speaker 14: Spoiler alert, Hi y'all, Hi guys.
Speaker 10: We're going on a national bikini tour and we're looking
Speaker 10: for two oil boys.
Speaker 7: Who can grease us up before each competition.
Speaker 2: This is us getting the email.
Speaker 6: You are in luck.
Speaker 3: There's a town about three miles that way. I'm sure,
Speaker 3: you'll find a couple of guys there.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, we don't know what you're talking about. The
Speaker 2: email guys see it.
Speaker 15: Yeah, we're not.
Speaker 2: Looking for an intern.
Speaker 6: My man, get out of here. Do you realize what
Speaker 6: you've done?
Speaker 5: Why?

Speaker 2: Now we're running after the email, Jane trying to talk.
Speaker 6: We got it, We caught him.
Speaker 3: You'll have to excuse my friend.
Speaker 6: He's a little slow.
Speaker 3: The town is back.
Speaker 1: That way, got that time.
Speaker 8: Can I just tell you, I still don't understand one
Speaker 8: of my college roommates, Clay, he hated Dumb and Dumber.
Speaker 8: He did not think it was funny at all.
Speaker 2: It was one of the best movies of our childhood.
Speaker 8: I agree, And he was like, it is just so
Speaker 8: stupid because there's crime.
Speaker 2: Also, Am I not right on that there's a touch
Speaker 2: of it?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that it caters to now the crime generation.
Speaker 2: Last podcast I tagged every crime podcast crime Officionado crime
Speaker 2: hashtag there was because we talked about Natalie Holloway.
Speaker 8: I don't understand how you don't find Dumb and Dumber funny.

Speaker 16: I knew it was going to be Babes, hands down
Speaker 16: your favorite movie.
Speaker 11: I already want to see it again already. Yeah, that's
Speaker 11: what you're doing right now.
Speaker 16: That's rare to go see a movie and want to
Speaker 16: see it again these days.
Speaker 11: It made me laugh so hard, And.
Speaker 16: As many movies as we watch, it's pretty rare we
Speaker 16: go back and rewatch a movie. I can't remember the
Speaker 16: last one that as soon as it hits streaming, I
Speaker 16: wanted to go rewatch again. My best had to go
Speaker 16: to The Fall Guy. And I think the reason that
Speaker 16: is now looking back on it, is because I feel
Speaker 16: like as big of a fan of just movies in
Speaker 16: general i am. I think that's why that movie spoke
Speaker 16: so much to me, because it also shows you the
Speaker 16: movie making process.
Speaker 11: You love a movie about a movie.
Speaker 16: Yeah, it's pretty meta, and I didn't know how well
Speaker 16: it was going to do with people who maybe didn't
Speaker 16: care so much about that because it.
Speaker 11: Was so good.
Speaker 17: Though, that was my runner up for Best of the
Speaker 17: Month because it just was. I loved it because everything
Speaker 17: about it.
Speaker 16: Ryan Gosling plays a stunt man who gets hurt, retires
Speaker 16: from stunt stunting, stunting stunting stunt manning, and then gets
Speaker 16: pulled back in. So while he is doing stuntman things
Speaker 16: in the fake movie on set, he is also doing
Speaker 16: stunt like things in The fall Guy, so it goes
Speaker 16: kind of like two layers. He's also acting as a stuntman,
Speaker 16: but he's also doing stunt things as the actor.
Speaker 11: It was meta within a meta movie.
Speaker 16: There are a lot of those moments, and I feel
Speaker 16: like at times it almost got way too into it.
Speaker 16: But I loved how unorthodox and different it felt than
Speaker 16: anything I'd seen in theaters in a long time. So
Speaker 16: that was my best of the month. What is your worst?
Speaker 11: A movie? I should have let you go see by yourself.
Speaker 11: It's called I Saw the TV.
Speaker 3: I knew you were gonna do it.
Speaker 11: It was too artsy for me. I am not high
Speaker 11: brown comes to movies.
Speaker 17: The only thing I would say I'm ever maybe highbrow
Speaker 17: about his books, and I'll even read like popular books.
Speaker 11: Like I'm not a book.
Speaker 17: Snob, but like I enjoy deeper books than I do
Speaker 17: deeper movies.
Speaker 11: I was so bored. I was so freakin' bored.
Speaker 16: I will say I didn't love I Saw the TV Glow,
Speaker 16: but I also didn't hate it as much as you did.
Speaker 16: I really enjoyed the vibe of I Saw the TV Glow.
Speaker 16: So what it's about is this kid named Owen and
Speaker 16: him and a friend get infatuated with this late night
Speaker 16: show that is kind of reminiscent of what you would
Speaker 16: see on Nickelodeon in the early nineties, kind of like
Speaker 16: the show.
Speaker 6: Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Speaker 16: Is what this show is in the movie, it's called
Speaker 16: the pink Opake, and it's them becoming infatuated with this
Speaker 16: show and then not being able to tell reality from
Speaker 16: the show, and that is generally what the movie is about.
Speaker 16: I will say the trailer was a little bit misleading
Speaker 16: because I thought it was going to have a little
Speaker 16: bit more of a traditional story structure of here's this
Speaker 16: story with these two characters find this weird show, and
Speaker 16: then they have to go on some adventure. There was
Speaker 16: really no adventure in the movie. The storytelling was really abstract,
Speaker 16: which even for me that I loved the vibe of it,
Speaker 16: that nineties retro vibe. The soundtrack soundtrack is great. Oh,
Speaker 16: I've been listening to it NonStop. Literally, it is my
Speaker 16: most played thing for the last week and a half
Speaker 16: because I loved it so much and even for a
Speaker 16: movie to make me want to go seek out its soundtrack,
Speaker 16: I feel is really powerful.
Speaker 17: Willy Wonka made you seek out the soundtrack Willy Wonka.
Speaker 16: I also listened to the Asteroid City soundtrack.
Speaker 11: We listened to Willy Wonka for quite a while.
Speaker 6: That was maybe a week. It was probably a week.
Speaker 16: Cashtroid City I listened to that probably for a week.
Speaker 16: Two Last Train, Yeah, I listened to that on a
Speaker 16: lot too, but for like for music that would actually
Speaker 16: go into something I would listen to on the rag.
Speaker 17: You also wanted to see this movie because Phoebe Bridgers
Speaker 17: wasn't it for sixty seconds?
Speaker 6: Yeah? I thought she was gonna be bigger wrong, but she.
Speaker 11: There's a lot of things we thought about this movie.
Speaker 16: Music was a big part of it, because at times
Speaker 16: this movie felt like it transformed into a music video.
Speaker 16: There were sequences that were just really beautifully shot, a
Speaker 16: lot of cool, fun neon visuals with a really cool
Speaker 16: song playing over it, and it was these moments where
Speaker 16: it didn't really feel that attached to the movie, so
Speaker 16: I enjoyed that part of it. I think that's why
Speaker 16: all the songs were so cemented in my head. Even
Speaker 16: the song with Phoebe Bridges was on screen in her band,
Speaker 16: I was like, I need to go listen to that song.
Speaker 16: It didn't occur to me. Oh, it's probably a real song,
Speaker 16: a part of the soundtrack. So I feel like all
Speaker 16: of the parts of it were good, but when you
Speaker 16: put them all together, the overall movie wasn't what I
Speaker 16: thought it was going to be. It's like taking a
Speaker 16: bunch of good ingredients and throwing them all together into
Speaker 16: a dinner, but then the dinner not being good because
Speaker 16: it's just a bunch of ingredients that don't really go
Speaker 16: well together, which also happens to us often. Oh yeah,
Speaker 16: that was exactly how was speaking to me right now.
Speaker 16: Sometimes I think I want something and then I make
Speaker 16: exactly what I wanted, and I think that's not what
Speaker 16: I wanted.
Speaker 6: It taste good.
Speaker 11: I say that often.
Speaker 17: I throw things in a bowl and I'm like, this
Speaker 17: wasn't the vibee was going for, and that's what the
Speaker 17: movie gave me, not the vibe I it was going for.
Speaker 6: That's your worst.
Speaker 16: Huh what would you rate it? Because I know what
Speaker 16: you said right after we watched it, You're like zero
Speaker 16: out of five.
Speaker 6: I'm out of here? Are you still at the zero?
Speaker 6: You can be at the zero.
Speaker 11: I'll give it a point five for the soundtrack.
Speaker 6: Soundtrack is good.
Speaker 16: I recommend well, you kind of got to be into
Speaker 16: sad indie music, which is like my jam Phoebe Bridges
Speaker 16: on a soundtrack that's gonna be all me all day.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'll give it a point five for the soundtrack.
Speaker 16: All right, we got it to a point five everybody.
Speaker 16: She was at a zero for me. The worst movie
Speaker 16: I saw in May, hands down, is not only the
Speaker 16: worst movie I've seen in May, but so far probably
Speaker 16: the worst I've seen all year maybe ever. Oh, it's
Speaker 16: up there for being one of the worst movies of
Speaker 16: all time. It is unfrosted with Jerry Seinfeld.
Speaker 11: How was that a real movie? I have so many
Speaker 11: big names.
Speaker 16: I don't know how he thought this was funny to me.
Speaker 16: Jerry Seinfeld hasn't been funny. I mean, I never really
Speaker 16: found Seinfeld to be that funny. It was not my
Speaker 16: go to show.
Speaker 17: He also just said in an interview that he misses
Speaker 17: toxic masculinity and the like dominant male personality.
Speaker 11: So his really his whole terrible takes.
Speaker 16: His whole promotional run for this movie was really weird
Speaker 16: because he came out saying that movies were dead, They're
Speaker 16: not relevant anymore, and he's saying this while promoting a movie.
Speaker 16: To me, he feels like he is this authority on comedy.
Speaker 6: I get it.
Speaker 16: He was big in the nineties. He has a really big,
Speaker 16: prominent stand up career. He's very influential to people. A
Speaker 16: lot of comedians look up to him. I never found
Speaker 16: him funny.
Speaker 11: He did the ant movie that says a lot B movie,
Speaker 11: the B movie.
Speaker 16: Yeah, B movie director has opinions on what movies need
Speaker 16: to be going forwards. Ants yea, yeah, there was a
Speaker 16: Bugs Life, and there was Bugs.
Speaker 17: Life, perfect movie, no notes, Untouchable, the B movie Yes, Okay.
Speaker 6: Thank You isn't actually bad.
Speaker 11: It isn't terrible. It's a B movie though.
Speaker 16: Yeah, B movie's pretty bad. But Seinfeld as a whole
Speaker 16: I've never really been that big a fan of I
Speaker 16: know people say, oh, you don't get his comedy. He
Speaker 16: likes pointing out the mundane, Like I just think he's
Speaker 16: out of touch. I don't want to hear a billionaire
Speaker 16: tell me what is funny.
Speaker 17: The funniest person on Seinfeld was Julia Louis Dreyfus.
Speaker 16: Yeah, that's the other thing about Seinfeld. He was not
Speaker 16: the funniest part about that show.
Speaker 11: He was not.
Speaker 16: It was her and Kramer. Yeah, and I put Costanzo
Speaker 16: at third.
Speaker 11: It was not him.
Speaker 16: He was the least funny thing about Seinfeld.
Speaker 6: Carol, she's a queen of talking.
Speaker 16: She's getting You're not afraid to fail this episode, so
Speaker 16: just let it flow.
Speaker 6: No one can do. We have a care lne Is
Speaker 6: found Caroline.
Speaker 15: Hey, y'all, it's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby,
Speaker 15: And here is a clip from this week's episode.
Speaker 7: One thing your dad said to you one time.
Speaker 13: That he didn't even remember.
Speaker 7: He didn't even remember.
Speaker 15: He probably said it in the heat of him being
Speaker 15: triggered trying to get you to behave in the way
Speaker 15: he needed you to behave because you ultimately he loves you,
Speaker 15: and he thought he needed to keep you safe by
Speaker 15: keeping you in these boundaries that he thought you needed
Speaker 15: to be in, which you obviously didn't. But like he's
Speaker 15: trying to love you in the best way he knows how,
Speaker 15: but he just mess it up because it's human and
Speaker 15: it's one thing he said that shaped your whole life.
Speaker 15: Let's talk about that story, because it's just like so
Speaker 15: many of us can relate to this and giving your
Speaker 15: dad so much grace.
Speaker 13: Which I do, you know, and both of us are
Speaker 13: crying speaking this.
Speaker 7: It's apparent child relationship is so difficult.
Speaker 13: It's so difficult. I think, Yeah, I think what you
Speaker 13: just said. I'm going to go back and listen to
Speaker 13: this podcast and have my dad hear what you just said. Actually,
Speaker 13: because it's so powerful and it's so healing to acknowledge
Speaker 13: our parents for being human and at the same time,
Speaker 13: you know, owning that what happened to us was real, right,
Speaker 13: And so my dad and so I had my dad
Speaker 13: read this chapter a year ago because I had finished
Speaker 13: the book and I knew he needed to read it
Speaker 13: well in advance.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, oh yeah, that's a big one.
Speaker 13: And we didn't talk for two months. He was very
Speaker 13: upset by it.
Speaker 7: It was a big one.
Speaker 13: It's a big one. Yeah, and he wanted he was
Speaker 13: the one that wanted to talk to me, actually, but
Speaker 13: I had held a boundary and just kind of got
Speaker 13: a little messy, as parent child relationships do, even in
Speaker 13: your forties.
Speaker 7: Well in your forties is when you started to have
Speaker 7: the real.
Speaker 13: Reckoning, correct, And that's what I'm amen.
Speaker 15: It's a transition from you're not the kid anymore. You've
Speaker 15: done your work, yes, and maybe you've even healed some
Speaker 15: beyond what your dad was capable of because you have
Speaker 15: new resources.
Speaker 13: Well that's exactly what had happened. There was a reckoning.
Speaker 13: So we met for breakfast after not talking for a while,
Speaker 13: and I looking back on that moment, I know that
Speaker 13: I wrote this book like my higher self, like I said,
Speaker 13: wrote this book for many reasons. I wrote this book
Speaker 13: to heal my lineage with my dad. You know, he
Speaker 13: was so shocked and hurt that.
Speaker 7: You have no idea that you felt this way. No,
Speaker 7: because he was in survival.
Speaker 15: He wasn't survival think about Marguerite honestly bringing it back
Speaker 15: like that's his deep lineage. Yeah, and that's his survival.
Speaker 15: He probably didn't like Holocaust survivors or.
Speaker 13: His parents, his parents. Yeah, most of my family, extended
Speaker 13: family died in the Holocaust. My grandfather, his dad, my grandfather.
Speaker 7: He cave to you.
Speaker 13: Yeah, he my great grandfather did.
Speaker 7: And that's your dad's grandfather.
Speaker 15: Yeah, my dad's craved you and spoke messages over you,
Speaker 15: which is incredible.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 7: But your dad didn't have the opportunity to have this easy.
Speaker 13: No, he didn't.
Speaker 7: He experienced it was all hard.
Speaker 13: His upbringing was tougher than mine, and survival dramatically harder
Speaker 13: than mine.
Speaker 15: It's like people were like, oh, let's find some enjoyment today.
Speaker 15: Let's how can we make your day great today?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 7: Dad, Absolutely, it's like, how can you survive today?
Speaker 13: He had. And it was that breakfast, that reckoning that
Speaker 13: I realized, like, my okay, how do I say this?
Speaker 13: My dad told me in that breakfast that when I
Speaker 13: was ten years old, I pulled away from him, that
Speaker 13: I got, you know, too cool for my dad. And
Speaker 13: he never got over that.
Speaker 7: He never he didn't know how to transition, He never.
Speaker 13: Knew how to evolve, evolve. It made him sad that
Speaker 13: I am mad that I would stop wanting to hold
Speaker 13: his hand.
Speaker 15: But here's the thing I've seen this so many times.
Speaker 15: The age from nine to eleven, girls change. I've seen
Speaker 15: it with like, yeah, a firsthand. That's when you transition
Speaker 15: from the little girl into the teenager, moving on to
Speaker 15: the woman. It's a transitional time and you become a
Speaker 15: new person.
Speaker 13: I know that. But my dad's wounding care girl was gone,
Speaker 13: His little girl was gone, and I get that.
Speaker 15: I look at Sunny and I think to myself all
Speaker 15: the time, this is going to evaporate. Her littleness is
Speaker 15: gonna leave, and like, I miss it already. Yeah, and
Speaker 15: once it's gone, it's gone. You can't ever get it back. Yeah,
Speaker 15: it's only memories and it's gone. It's like disappears.
Speaker 13: And I don't think my dad again had the tools
Speaker 13: and how to reconcile that within himself.
Speaker 7: He was sad.
Speaker 13: Oh, he was so sad, and then his sadness manifested
Speaker 13: into anger.
Speaker 7: We y'all super close when you were a little.
Speaker 13: Yeah. So when I was fourteen years old, my dad
Speaker 13: and I got into a big fight, and in his fury,
Speaker 13: he told me that he was going to call me
Speaker 13: Jessica zero because I was going to amount to nothing.
Speaker 15: And he's just trying to shock you back into line. Correct,
Speaker 15: that's all I was trying to do. He's just trying
Speaker 15: to shock you back in to lines that he can control,
Speaker 15: can keep you safe.
Speaker 13: Correct, that's it, And that is exactly it.
Speaker 7: And I see parents do that all the time.
Speaker 15: That's hard to parent. And I resorted to threat sometimes.
Speaker 15: I'm like, Sonny, you're not gonna get any ice cream or.
Speaker 7: Washed iPod ever get in your life. You don't do
Speaker 7: like what in the world.
Speaker 13: So I can't relate to being a mother. I know
Speaker 13: that that is the hardest job in the world. And
Speaker 13: I said that in my book, like if you want to,
Speaker 13: if you want your ego to be brought to your
Speaker 13: knees to see how flawed you are to have a kid.
Speaker 15: But my point, you run out of and you can't
Speaker 15: get him to do what you want. You resort to
Speaker 15: all these tactics, especially if you haven't worked on your
Speaker 15: own wounds. Oh my god, the tactics that parents can
Speaker 15: resort to are so crazy because you're you got to
Speaker 15: keep your kids in line, because your things, they're going
Speaker 15: to die if stray off.
Speaker 13: And there's just trauma that forms around all of it.
Speaker 7: And you say these things and you don't even realize
Speaker 7: the impact your He.
Speaker 13: Didn't even remember that that one freaking sentence drove my
Speaker 13: entire life until I was forty. I am going to
Speaker 13: prove my dad wrong.
Speaker 7: I'm going to show him about it again. You just
Speaker 7: carried it.
Speaker 13: I just carried inside, and I was like, I'm going
Speaker 13: to prove to all I've ever wanted to do. This
Speaker 13: is why I mean, I've made a ton of money.
Speaker 13: I've had a ton of success. I've had so many
Speaker 13: third party validations with awards and media and book deals
Speaker 13: and dah dah dah dah and money in the bank
Speaker 13: and people telling me I'm awesome at my retreats, and
Speaker 13: my staff loving to work for me.
Speaker 7: Like even validating all I'm about.
Speaker 13: But underneath it all, all they wanted to do is
Speaker 13: make my dad proud of me. Was he ever being
Speaker 13: able to, Oh, he's so proud of me. He's so
Speaker 13: proud of me. But see, that's the thing he did.
Speaker 13: I didn't know that that sentence, that moment, the way
Speaker 13: that he raised me in his own unconscious stuff, especially
Speaker 13: when I was a teenager, became the like under belly
Speaker 13: hum of my entire ambition, And this whole time, my
Speaker 13: Dad's like, my daughter's amazing, tells us all of his
Speaker 13: friends about me. It comes to everything I do, like,
Speaker 13: is so proud of me and has even said it.
Speaker 13: But because I never healed it, and that's why I
Speaker 13: think it open wound.
Speaker 7: It was an open and deep open wa Yeah.
