00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: end of this Eddie might e d and I will

00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: review the movie Walk Card The Dewey Cox Story. It's

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 1: an old movie, but it's a music movie. I've never

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: seen it, thought it'd be funny. So if you haven't

6

Speaker 1: seen the movie, you still might like listen to the

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: review because we're we're kind of dumb. But if you

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: haven't seen it and you want to watch it, maybe

9
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: go watch it then come back to the end of

10
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: this podcast. But we're gonna put it at the end

11
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: in case there are spoilers in there too, right, Mike

12
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: a little bit, But that's not a movie. It doesn't

13
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,239
Speaker 1: matter if it's spoiled. It's not like some crazy ending. Yeah,

14
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 1: there's nothing you can really spoil it, So check that out.

15
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 1: Check the movie out. Um. Also, we'll talk to Billy

16
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: Duke's coming up from Taste Country on the top ten

17
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: Hottest Artist, kind of go through that. Billy Duke's smart

18
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 1: guy like him, have him on to talk about that

19
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: music Headlines of the Week Live Nation is trying to

20
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: get artists to take pay cuts for concerts and festivals

21
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: next year. In a memo obtained by rolling Stone, Live

22
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: Nation sites unprecedented times and quote the exponential release excuse me,

23
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: the exponential rise of certain costs as reasons for adjusting

24
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: payment policies. That's interesting because they're gonna have to pay

25
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: a lot more to make make sure things are safe

26
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: and clean. Then they thought they would let me read

27
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: more about this. Most of the new policies shift financial

28
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: burdens to the artists. For example, the company wants to

29
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: decrease the monetary guarantees promised to artists before an event.

30
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: Across the board. Live Nation also says that if a

31
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: concert is canceled due to poor ticket sales, it will

32
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: give the artist of the guarantee. Well, that's interesting, and

33
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: I think I'll speak on this as also a performer.

34
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: I work with these promotion companies, promoters all different ones.

35
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: I think as long as books are shown, people can

36
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: make wise decisions about business they're doing together. And it's

37
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: not that I don't trust Live Nation or an artist,

38
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: but I would like to see if I'm someone that's

39
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: has has agreed to a tour or agreed to you know,

40
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: three or four shows or even a show, I want

41
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: to see those costs and why I'm gonna take mine

42
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: down on the on the Cancel's great for an artist.

43
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: They still get paid even if they don't sell tickets

44
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: because people don't want to come. Let's say this twenty

45
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: they're they're guarantee twenty bucks. Um, they're probably a lower

46
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: act would be guaranteed about ten to fifteen thousand, unless

47
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: it's a baby act. On a big tour, they're about

48
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: five to five thousand and seventy. A lower act tend

49
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: that big acts or the hundreds of thousands dollars a night.

50
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 1: So you're talking about that's a nice little little give there.

51
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 1: But that's interesting. I never thought about the fact that

52
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna cost more to put on shows, So I

53
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: think as long as they show their books a little bit.

54
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: I don't know why an artist would say no to that,

55
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: because everybody's gonna lose some money here. Everybody and no

56
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: party promoter or artist should benefit and the others should suffer.

57
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: You should kind of all be in this together in

58
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: a way. Interesting. Let me think about that some more.

59
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: Maybe do a whole podcast on that would be the

60
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: most worring podcast ever. Just open up a book. Now

61
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: that the whole country is protesting, raging against the Machine

62
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: is actually back on the charts. The band's self titled

63
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: debut album landed back on the Billboard two hundred. It

64
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: reached number eight on the iTunes Top Album charts as well.

65
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: Do we have any rage? I can put them up.

66
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,959
Speaker 1: This is right in my gut from back in high

67
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: school more so than college. I guess it was like

68
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 1: ninth and tenth grade. I would have someone send me

69
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: a tape of the Edge in Dallas. They'd hit record

70
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 1: play and just tape like an hour, and the flip

71
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: to tape tape an hour, and I get a lot

72
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,839
Speaker 1: of rage in that. Yeah, I was a big rage guy,

73
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: but I didn't really know why. I just like the sound.

74
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: I didn't really know what they were protesting at the time.

75
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: By the time I started to know, I started to

76
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: get older and getting college and they started to fall

77
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: off a little bit and do their own things. But

78
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: now I look back pretty cool. Uh, this is one

79
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: of my favorites. What else do you have? All right,

80
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: so we're limited in the rage music. Uh ACN has

81
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: secured a six billion dollar contract to build a con City,

82
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: a futuristic cryptocurrency theme city in Senegal. Along with having homes, malls,

83
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: and a power plant. Acon city will have all the

84
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: amenities of city needs, including schools and a police station.

85
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: Pretty baller. Some people have buildings, he has a whole city,

86
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 1: like super futuristic? Does this ever actually happen? Though? I

87
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: don't know the guy who did smack that now has

88
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,359
Speaker 1: a city? And is he the king? Is he just

89
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: there's king? Yeah? What? Because if he's not, he's still

90
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: who the city is named after. And then if he

91
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: does something really bad in his older life, like commits

92
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: a bad crime, you have to change the name of

93
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: it because they don't want to name the city after.

94
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: Like you're not seeing anything Bill Cosby elementary schools. It's

95
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: still remaining in play. Not that he would do that,

96
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: but I'm saying, you know, he commits fraud Martha Stewart style.

97
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: Do you have to change the name of the city. Uh? Finally,

98
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: dashboard CONFESSI s old singer Chris Corraba suffered to be

99
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 1: her injuries in a motorcycle accident. Luckily they weren't life

100
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: threatening and he expects to make a full recovery. I

101
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: was watching the video of him in the hospital bed.

102
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: You see it. Yeah, that's sad looking. Yeah, it looks

103
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: pretty terrible motorcycles. Just never had the need to get

104
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: on a on a motorcycle. He's a motorcycle guy, though

105
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: he looks cool riding a motorcycle. He lives in town.

106
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: He lives here. Oh, I've never seen him riding, and

107
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: I just said, like he he's the kind of guy

108
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: that will look cool riding a motorcy like all the tattoos,

109
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: like the good looking face. If you have those two things,

110
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: the tattoos in the face, it's pretty good to go.

111
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: But he's what happened to him? Do you know? I

112
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: don't know he had a car car hit him. I

113
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: don't even think that he hit anybody. I think he

114
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: just fell Rookie. Here's the one thing. I've never wrecked

115
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: a motorcycle. I don't think I've ever been on while

116
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: driving it. Though I've never wrecked a motorcycle. Uh, let's

117
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: talk about new music before we get into this. I'm

118
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: just really it's really weird about even building statues after

119
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: people who are still alive. It's always a tricky thing

120
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: because they do something that's not so good. They could

121
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: they what do you do? Take the statue down? Wants

122
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: to wait on your statue. Then yeah, I personally don't,

123
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: but like I wondered in my town, there's a Sciences

124
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: boyhood home Bobby Bones. If I do something bad and

125
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:15,920

00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: Remember Trapped. They had one song Herd Strong, Herd Strong,

156
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: hurt Strong. Remember that? Oh yeah, there is It's jam.

157
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: They're a one hit wonder like crazy right and I

158
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: film song in here I forgot about and I forgot

159
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: her out him. But I mean that was a pop

160
00:08:53,400 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: song too. Mr Sommer, No, no, no. Then well they

161
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: have an album out trying to get that second hit,

162
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: that all elusive second hit, Headstrong too. That's what they

163
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: should do. Head strong again. All right, let's get into

164
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: this podcast. We'll talk about with Billy Dukes. We'll talk

165
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: about the big biggest country music artists the week, and

166
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: then we review a music movie at the end of this.

167
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: Thank you guys. All right on now is Billy Dukes

168
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: from Taste of Country. And I was looking at this article, Billy,

169
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: and I was gonna come on to talk about it,

170
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: but I thought, why not get you on since you're

171
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: you run the site and helped contribute to this article.

172
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: Is that right? Yeah? Yeah, so appreciate it. Um team,

173
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: you know, it's country team. But I was the one

174
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: who kind of headed it up, yeah, because I was

175
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: looking at it and I thought it was an interesting

176
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: article because you know, there isn't a right answer. It's

177
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: everybody kind of putting their opinion in. And I thought, well,

178
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: there's nobody that listed as a writer. So we came

179
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: to you. How does that work when you guys all collaborate,

180
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: You guys get in a room or I guess you

181
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 1: can't get in a room now though, with Corona, do

182
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: you just send out emails or take a poll of

183
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: what's going on? We're big on flack kind of all

184
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: day long. I mean, that's kind of how we worked

185
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: usually anyway. We have writers based in Texas and out

186
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: in the Western Tennessee, and until recently a writer in Buffalo,

187
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: So we've always sort of worked via Slack and emails

188
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: and occasionally we get on a conference call as well.

189
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: But the modern way, I suppose, Well, these are country

190
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: music's top ten artists. Now I may not agree with

191
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 1: all of them with you, but I think it's fun

192
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 1: to kind of talk through them. Number ten, you guys

193
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: have Sam Hunt. So talking about Sam Hunt while you

194
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: made the list, well, I mean this really could have

195
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: it and might still be sort of a comeback here

196
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: for Sam Hunt. I mean, it was a long time

197
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: ago that he released Montevello, and he had the new

198
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: south Side album which did debut at number one. Um,

199
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 1: he had a big tour planned and in some ways

200
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: this this whole year is kind of a theoretical year

201
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: since all the tours got canceled. But he was looking

202
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: to have a pretty good tour with Kit Moore and

203
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,599
Speaker 1: Travis Denning that I think was going to sell a

204
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: lot of concert tickets. Um, I'll just forget I think

205
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: is the big thing for Sam. I just think that's

206
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: a monster of a song, and it's proven to be digitally,

207
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: had sold a lot of copies and it sounds really

208
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: really good on the radio. You know what's funny about

209
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: Sam is I think he and probably Ashley McBride got

210
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: screwed over the worst by Corona as far as it

211
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: was time for them to put their stomp down. Sam

212
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: again because he's been gone for so long, and Ashley

213
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: really for the first time with the general public like

214
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: people actually, uh, they're just country music sort of fans

215
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: knowing who she is. I felt like they both If

216
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: I were picking who got hurt the worst as far

217
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: as breakout years, it would be Sam to rebreak and

218
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 1: then Ashley McBride to really have our shot. But it

219
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: doesn't mean they're not going to break back anyway. But

220
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: I felt like they were both really poised. Number nine

221
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: you have Keith Urban. Yeah, Keith. I mean I really

222
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: kind of expected Keith to be higher going into this.

223
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that he hasn't really toured in America anyway,

224
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: and um really since so that's certainly affected things. Uh

225
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: the Grassini U album. I would bi Keith Urban fan.

226
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: I think his albums are fantastic, but it didn't really

227
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: stick commercially like maybe some of his other ones have.

228
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: The new music he's working on, though, I think it

229
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: is doing really well. Um, when God Whispered Your Name

230
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: is one of my favorite songs of the year so far.

231
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: We were a pretty big hit and um and then

232
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: of course he's hosting the A c M. So I

233
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 1: think that's gonna lead to a really big fall into

234
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: winner for Keith. Yeah, this song is my favorite Keith

235
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: Urban song in a long time. I like like soft

236
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: Keith Urban. That's my favorite Keith Urban. When I can

237
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: like poke it and it feels soft and loving, that's

238
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: my that's my favorite Keith Yeah, you know, yeah, I'm

239
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 1: going with you. I like that. Like when he gets

240
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: pretty experimental as well, like the Pitball collaboration from a

241
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: couple of albums ago. I could get down with that

242
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: for a bit. My guess is that the A c

243
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: M s will not happen so he I think he'll

244
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: end up posting a thing like doing with c M

245
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: A Fest now because with c M A Fest the

246
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: actual show, but they were gonna have that, I was

247
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: gonna host it. It got ripped away because of obviously

248
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: they're not having the festival at all. So now there's

249
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: a virtual thing where they're playing old episodes. Um, but

250
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: a c M S are alive thing with a bunch

251
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: of folks in the room. What is that supposed to

252
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 1: happen in September October? Billy? Do you remember, uh, September

253
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: somewhere in their mid September. I can't see them getting

254
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,559
Speaker 1: a thousand, five thousand, ten thousand people in a room

255
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: at that point, just just guessing. Can you agree? No,

256
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I mean, I think they gotta do

257
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: something because they got to give out those trophies, don't they.

258
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: I think the trophy, you know, and it's a weird

259
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: year to give trophies. I mean with CMA is coming

260
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: up in November. Uh. We were talking on the show

261
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: Who's gonna be? Who would you consider for Entertainer of

262
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: the Year during and you know, I would say Entertainer

263
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: years never award that has actual guidelines on it. It

264
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: can be someone who tours or has hits or dust

265
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: things outside of uh of just music. And I think

266
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: when you look at that Keith Urban, who was one

267
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: of the first guys to go and play shows, doing

268
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: these these drive in shows for first for the you know,

269
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 1: frontline workers. I think Garth has to be considered at

270
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: how he's he's not doing the live shows, but he's

271
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: doing three drive in theaters at once. He's you know,

272
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: done a couple of TV shows. So I think Entertainer

273
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: of the Year as we're talking about a c M

274
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: S or c M AS, I think it's going to

275
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: be looked at a bit different this year when you

276
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: hear that, who would you put in that list of

277
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: Entertainer of the Year this year? Well, I would add

278
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: artists like maybe Thomas Rhett and Luke Combs only because

279
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: they've they've handled the digital elements so well, like they've

280
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: consistently released new songs on Instagram, TV or through YouTube

281
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: in the case of Luke Combs, and they've kind of

282
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: done that, whereas well Dark those digital pretty well too.

283
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: But you know that's sort of a new generation, is

284
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: the new version of the live show. At number eight

285
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: on the list, someone that I I almost put in

286
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: that Sam Hunt Ashley McBride is Dan and Ship because

287
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: it was and I'm you know, close to both those

288
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: guys that are like legitimate friends and I know for

289
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: them they were finally playing arenas this is two guys

290
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: who were never supposed to make it according to everyone,

291
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: who were to everything that wasn't country. They got together,

292
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: started writing, were always told no, no, no, and they

293
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: have just hit so hard and they were finally headlining

294
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: arenas and I remember seeing Dan's message. I think they

295
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: were outside of arena going we can't do it. We

296
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: got to call it off and they were just had

297
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: hit such an apex and now uh not able to go.

298
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: But they're at number eight on your list. Yeah, and

299
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I I had Dan and Shay as

300
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: the artist probably hit hardist by the coronavirus for those

301
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: exact reasons. Um, I think that stadium or that arena

302
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: tour was gonna be huge, and I think we would

303
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: have had more music from them by now. Um, and

304
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: they've been so consistent with the quality of songs these

305
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: last few years. I think, uh, they we have had

306
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: some great new music from them from now to kind

307
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: of drive that tour, but also huge on Spotify, and

308
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: they got a ton of ATM nominations leading up in September,

309
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: So I think they arguably would have been top five

310
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: had we not had the COVID nineteam shutdown. Isn't it

311
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: a while to think that a lot of artists are

312
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: holding off a bit on putting out music. But when

313
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: things start to track back, which it could be next

314
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: year before we really get back into I mean, I

315
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: think it's gonna take a vaccine for people to just

316
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: rip and roll. You know, you're gonna see spots of

317
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: people touring in some place, and there are some parts

318
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: of the country where they said hey and told me, hey,

319
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: we can play shows at casinos, And for me, I

320
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: don't feel comfortable playing shows right now, um at all,

321
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: but some is gonna But I don't think it's all

322
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: happening everywhere until there's a vaccine for for COVID, for corona,

323
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: whatever you gonna call it. But at the same time,

324
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna see everybody releasing new music at the same time.

325
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: That's wild to think about, could be really nuts. And

326
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: then leading into next year, my thought is that every artist.

327
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: Initially my thought was every artist who're gonna play one

328
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: venue sized down so that it's gonna be really hard

329
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: to play stadiums, and Kenny Chen he's going to try

330
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: next year. But then if you're arena artist, you're gonna

331
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: do maybe smaller arenas and then from there because people

332
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: they're not gonna be as eager to go to the shows.

333
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: And I think getting people to allow shows in certain

334
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: parts of the country, You're not gonna be able to

335
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: go into southern California or New York or Boston or

336
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: some of these major metropolitan areas because you're seeing COVID

337
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: go up and regard of how you believe people should

338
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: handle it, you know, there are certain rules that some

339
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: cities are just holding tight on um, you know, with

340
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 1: I don't think again, I don't think the cm are

341
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: gonna happen in Nashville. I don't have any inside knowledge.

342
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: I'm on the board of the a c MS, but

343
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 1: they don't tell us trap like that. But I can't

344
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 1: see them putting five thousand people in a room though,

345
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: do I mean for anything? Can you? No? No, I can't.

346
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: I know Nashville has open back up, and I'm watching

347
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: the number of cases every day, and I see him

348
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: going up and up in Tennessee, and it's a little scary.

349
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: Jason al Dean's at seven talk about Jason. Jason is

350
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: like the most consistent artist really of the last ten years.

351
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: I think he's probably been somewhere between uh three and

352
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: number seven on this list every year. This is the

353
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: first year we've done it, but he would have been. Um.

354
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 1: He continues to be one of the biggest live draws.

355
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 1: He sells I think over sixteen and seventeen thousand tickets

356
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 1: the show, and he plays a lot of shows um Spotify.

357
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: He's not a big streaming artist compared to like the

358
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: Dan and Chase and the Marion morris Is of the world.

359
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: But We Back and Got What I Got have both

360
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: been solid songs. I don't think the nine album has

361
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 1: produced maybe that sort of signature song in terms of

362
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,479
Speaker 1: a radio single quite yet. Um, but they've both been

363
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: solid number one hits. And then of course he's kind

364
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: of become viral with his wife Brittany Aldan on Instagram.

365
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: I mean, she makes some kind of a really fun

366
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 1: celebrity to watch as well. You know, she actually makes

367
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: him a bit relatable because you see the human side

368
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: of Jason Aldean, who's kind of that country rocker with

369
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: this image that you don't get to peek behind the

370
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: curtain until Brittany kind of came into the picture. Yeah,

371
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: they're super fun to watch, I think on Instagram, I

372
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: think they're they're cute. I don't know if we would

373
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: have said Jason Aldean is cute to watch. I don't

374
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: know that still would say that, but yeah, you're right,

375
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: it does bring an extra element to Jason. That's funny. Uh.

376
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: Number six is Marion Morris on your list of the

377
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: Hottest Country Artists? Yeah, and I really hate that man

378
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: is the only female artists represented on this list. Um Miranda,

379
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 1: I think I could have argued to made the list

380
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: pretty easily. But Marin is just huge on Spotify. She's

381
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 1: a really successful artist streaming. Um. The Bones is a

382
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: much much bigger song that I think anybody could have

383
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: possibly imagined. It's held down number one, I think for

384
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: like fifteen weeks now. And she's also developed not only

385
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 1: a really big touring artist in terms of like being

386
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 1: able to sell tickets, she's really gotten good. I mean,

387
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: you've probably seen her a number of times over the

388
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: years like I have, and you know, she kind of

389
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: found her way on stage and she can kind of

390
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: filled up some of those bigger stages and she's just

391
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: a great live performer nowadays. And The Bones I'll flip

392
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: over sometimes on satellite and I can hear the one

393
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: hundred or I can hear the pop station and the

394
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: Bones is playing on pop radio too, which you know,

395
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 1: we haven't seen a lot of artists other than Dan

396
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: and Shay and a little bit Sam crossover. I don't

397
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: know if there's been a female Has there been a

398
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: female crossover really in the last five or six years, Um,

399
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 1: Kelsey hasn't really. I mean she was on a Chain

400
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 1: Smoker song, so you're right. I don't count Kelsey crossing

401
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: over because she was on one of their songs. But yeah,

402
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: Kelsey and Miranda hasn't. No, I mean maybe if you

403
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: if you want to count be Rexa because that song

404
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 1: crossed over country. Yeah, I don't know, but the country up.

405
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: So my point is good for Marion, like she's doing

406
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 1: it and I think she's, you know, still achieving so

407
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: much at a time where people are kind of chilling back.

408
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,360
Speaker 1: I think we're having that baby was was was awesome.

409
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: The timing was like, you don't you never want a

410
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: pandemic to happen, But if I were gonna have a baby,

411
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: I'd have a baby at a pandemic when you're locked

412
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: in the house the whole time, you know, perfect. Yeah,

413
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 1: it was out perfectly for Kane Brown's at number five. Yeah,

414
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: I think Karen, Kane and Marion are really pretty close. Um,

415
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: Kane's got one more album that sort of sticks around

416
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: on that album chart. Homesick is all over the radio.

417
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: That song still sounds good and it's what a year old.

418
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: Two years old had a big tour this year, and

419
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: he has all that crossover success, I mean the my

420
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: Smallow song, John Legend song, and he's done a few more.

421
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: He continues to prove he's well on his way to

422
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 1: becoming a legit not only male Outists of the Year contender,

423
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: but Entertainer of the Year contender, and probably a few

424
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: years it's gonna be weird to watch kind of the

425
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 1: shift and Entertainer of the year because in country music,

426
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: the entertainers of the year don't go away, meaning as

427
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: they get older, they dig in and it's harder to

428
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: move them out. It's not like people retire over here.

429
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: You're not gonna see Luke Bryan and Al Dean retire.

430
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: But then you have the Kane Browns and the the

431
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 1: Luke Combs and the Thomas Rhets. They're just almost too

432
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: many superstars to have them all in that category, you know. Yeah,

433
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: and Kane's kind of been snubbed from the awards, so

434
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: who knows when he'll actually kind of get his shot.

435
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 1: But I see Luke and Luke Combs and and Thomas

436
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,199
Speaker 1: rhet are both in the entertainer category for the A

437
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: c N S, So that's kind of a dramatic shift.

438
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: Two newbies in out of five, which rolls is over

439
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: to number four is Thomas Rhette talk about tr Yeah,

440
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: be a light Man. That's going to be one of

441
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: the songs of the year and not only kind of

442
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 1: defines this time, it's just a really great collaboration. And

443
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: that came Wow, Beer Camp Fix was nearing number one.

444
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: Um quietly he's become a really huge live artist. He

445
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: sold some seven hunds of thousand tickets last year, and

446
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: I think that Entertainer of the Year not really kind

447
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: of gave him a leg up maybe on the King

448
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: Browns of the world to give him them before in

449
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: this list, well, the A c M s are a

450
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 1: bit more progressive. I know Thomas one Thomas Routt one

451
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 1: Male Vocalist of the Year a couple of years ago,

452
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: and that was a big deal because that was the

453
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: first time that someone had broken through in that category

454
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: in a while. So it's always interesting to watch the

455
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: two award shows because the A c M s are

456
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: a few years ahead or a bit GUESSI and the

457
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: c M as or maybe a year or two behind.

458
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: At times when you see people like Dan and Shaye

459
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: miss and miss and then hit after they probably already

460
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,120
Speaker 1: should have hit. H Jayson L. Deane, I mean kind

461
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: of defined that for a while he would win the

462
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: A c M Entertainer of the Year and he couldn't

463
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: sniff a nomination. Yeah, that's a good point to see.

464
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: Blake Shelton is the number three. What he got about Blake?

465
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: Blake seems to be making a comeback of his own.

466
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 1: I mean, he's never really left because he's been on

467
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: the Voice the whole time. But this God's Country sort

468
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: of mini album. God's Country obviously a great song. The

469
00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: Gwen Stefani duett was obviously huge, but really some of

470
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: those more memorable songs over the last five or ten years.

471
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 1: My favorite story about Blake is that he retweeted a

472
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: woman or replied to him when on Twitter who had

473
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: a book inspired by her late daughter, and then that

474
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: book shot up to like top five on like three

475
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,959
Speaker 1: Amazon book charts. He's just really really influential. Well then

476
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: we get to number one and number two and they're

477
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: both Luke's. Now I wonder was this close at all

478
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: or not? Yeah, I think we really debated between the

479
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: two of them, and it's kind of back to like

480
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: what you're talking about with regards the entertainer of the years,

481
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: you have sort of that old guard that sits in

482
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: those top spots. Um, Luke Combs I think analytically, if

483
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: you looked at the numbers, is just a little stronger.

484
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: His albums I think are in the top two or

485
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: three every single week in terms of the charts. Um,

486
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: every song he puts out as a hit and memorable,

487
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: and he's become a great touring artist. Luke Bryant has

488
00:23:53,560 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: American idol uh and probably draws more fans per show live. Um,

489
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 1: how do you choose between them? I think altimately we

490
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 1: kind of went with the numbers and this we try

491
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,679
Speaker 1: to be analytical and objective, and that meant in some

492
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: cases maybe leaning more into the numbers. So that's how

493
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: we kind of add up with Luke Combs at number one.

494
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 1: So Luke Bryan's at number two, and I'm gonna read

495
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: some of what you wrote here what was written. No

496
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: one on this list sells more concert tickets than Luke Brian.

497
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: He's the stadium act with a strong foothold of country radio,

498
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: even if his albums don't hold the same clout as

499
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 1: some others before or after him. And again, I'm assuming

500
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: you guys are adding in things like American Idol and

501
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: you know, just like Blake with the voice, like things

502
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: other than just songs on the radio or songs that

503
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: are streaming. Yeah. Absolutely, I mean I think that kind

504
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 1: of adds to their overall heat, if you will. Number one.

505
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 1: Luke Combs, boy, I tell you I haven't seen a

506
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 1: guy he's been. He has been the unicorn for me

507
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 1: and my seven eight years in town. Like you know,

508
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: Sam hit hard early and did what he did. But

509
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: Sam was a reluctant star. Um, Luke, I don't know screams. Hey,

510
00:24:58,560 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 1: I knew I was going to be a star, one

511
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: of be a star, but I haven't. He's just so

512
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: undeniable all the time and everything he does. I have

513
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,959
Speaker 1: not seen anything like a Luke Combs trajectory, have you know,

514
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 1: especially in terms of how easy he makes it look

515
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 1: like all of his songs sounds so easy, and I

516
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: know they're not. They're well written songs, um, but he

517
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: does have sort of that swagger. I talked to one

518
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 1: of the writers of Beard Never Broke My Heart, and

519
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 1: he more or less admitted that Luke Combs knew it

520
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: was going to be kind of a career song song

521
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: for him when they wrote it, and that was well

522
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 1: before we've ever heard it on the radio. So he

523
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: does sort of have this swagger about him and no,

524
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: but he still comes off as a really kind of humble,

525
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: nice guy when you talk to him. And people that

526
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: do it really well always make it look really easy.

527
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: You know. Uh with Luke, you're like, man, he's writing songs.

528
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: I feel that way. Man, How does he do that?

529
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: It seems so easy? That's because he's so good, you know.

530
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,679
Speaker 1: I think Sam is a guy too who writes songs

531
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 1: like that. Obviously Sam kind of checked out for a while,

532
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: but body like a back road. If I hear one

533
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: more person say, man, I could have written that song,

534
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: then why don't you freaking write it? You can't write

535
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: it because it just it sounds so easy. But how

536
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 1: Sam writes is Sam will take four days on a song.

537
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: He'll write a song for five or six hours and

538
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 1: then come back into it days and days and days after,

539
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: and it's the it's the minutia of a song that

540
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: especially like a song like that that really made it pop.

541
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 1: I think Luke and Samer are a lot of like

542
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 1: in that way. So who would have been your number one?

543
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 1: I agree with most of everything you wrote, maybe the

544
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 1: maybe the order is not the same, but I'd have

545
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: put Luke Combs at one with Luke it two. The

546
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: only person that I felt was honorable mention or maybe

547
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,239
Speaker 1: you could have jumped in, was someone who doesn't have

548
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: the numbers but has so much momentum is Morrigan Wallen

549
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: like as far as far as like hits and momentum

550
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: and like undeniable, maybe just an honorable mention like that

551
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: guy is legit songwriter, singer, performer, like he has the

552
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 1: three things to be a country star, and he also

553
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: has that real you understand that who five minutes with

554
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: him or watching a clip you know who Morgan Walla did.

555
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: Wallon is instantly and it's not manufactured at all. So

556
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if he makes top ten. I think

557
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: you guys did a great job on the list, which

558
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 1: is why I wanted to get you on. But I

559
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: think Morgan Wallon was the one that for me, I

560
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's a close one. Yeah. I think

561
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 1: early on we we decided to full kind of focus

562
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: on arena headliners, which was a tough choice all on

563
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 1: its own because there's so many kind of younger artists

564
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: that just have a lot of what you would call he.

565
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 1: I mean, Ashley McBride certainly does, and and some others

566
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: who are even newer. Morgan Wallen, it's certainly right there.

567
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: I mean he he kind of checks all the boxes

568
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: and I think with another album or two, he's going

569
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: to be a real headliner. All right there. He is

570
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 1: Billy Dukes from Tasting Country. Check out the site. I

571
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 1: love the site. Rate it constantly on Twitter at Billy

572
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: Dukes on Instagram at serious Journalist. Well that's the role.

573
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,239
Speaker 1: Switch up a name, Billy, what what you don't want

574
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: to go? Billy Dukes on Instagram. So I didn't become

575
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 1: Instagram hip until kind of fairly recent me. I had

576
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: like my personal Instagram, which was just like family photos,

577
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: and I finally decided I need to get with it,

578
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: and I think there was already a Billy Dukes on Instagram.

579
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: So I used a hashtag that I often sees on Twitter,

580
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: and we was serious journalist, because often I'm not very serious.

581
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: Did you guys consider Chesney for this list because he's

582
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 1: had some radio hits, obviously he's doing the big old tour.

583
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: Did you consider him at all? Yeah? He was on.

584
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: Certainly one of the artists we talked about. I mean,

585
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: I know he's got a big stadium tour, but um,

586
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: you know that the album and the songs aren't quite

587
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: as iconic as they used to be. A debut at

588
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: Number one argued that was because a lot of those

589
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: albums were attached to the concert tickets. Um, I'm not

590
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: sure he's so much in the moment is maybe some

591
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: of the other artists. How are you feeling about artists

592
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: that do that where they go, Okay, you're gonna buy

593
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: tickets to the show. You're gonna get the record too,

594
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna count that record towards the first week record play.

595
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: You think that's a tactic that they're using strategically in

596
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: a good way or it kind of sucks. If I

597
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: was an honest I might do it. I probably would

598
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: do it honestly. I mean, you want your music to

599
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: get in fans hands, now should the chart keepers? The

600
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: gatekeepers kind of allowed that calculation. I don't know. I

601
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: mean it kind of writes itself. He was number one

602
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: one week and then kind of fell off the charts

603
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: the next week, so people kind of knew what had happened. Um,

604
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: but you know, you want to get your music out there,

605
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: so that's that's a fairly good way to do it.

606
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: I don't have anything to goodst them for doing it.

607
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: I guess I would say that it's great if you

608
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: want to package it, but I don't think it should

609
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: count on the chart against people who are literally just

610
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: streaming or buying the record. And then this is not

611
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: towards Kenny in general. I've but again, you can do it.

612
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: It's not against any rules. So I would do it too.

613
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, but I'm saying I don't like

614
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: the rule that it's if you you're launching a tour,

615
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: you have an advantage over someone coming out the same

616
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: week that's just launching a record simply because they're not

617
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: launching a tour. I think they do it to like

618
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: if you have like a three or four or five

619
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: disc box set coming out. Don't you get credit for

620
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: like five uh, like five records sold if someone buys

621
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: the whole box set. Like Garth was kind of the

622
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: king of that for a long time. Yeah, And Garth

623
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: releases an awesome box set like every week. So it's

624
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: like Garth the nineties, Garth. Well, okay, never mind, we

625
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: have new stuff from ninety two only Garth. Yeah. Yeah, um,

630
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: all right, see you later. So this is a music podcast.

631
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: If you're listening on the Bobby Cast and you're listening

632
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: on Mike D's podcast, it's a movie podcast. So it's

633
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: a music movie. We're doing so both. This will go

634
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 1: on to both of the podcast. Eddie's also here to

635
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,719
Speaker 1: to talk with us. This is great. Well, what happened

636
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: was I was listening to a jutt Apataw interview because

637
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: he's promoting the King of Staten Island and he did

638
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: that movie, and he was talking about movies that he

639
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: did that didn't do so well as far as making

640
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of money. And he said, Hey, I loved

641
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: Walk Hard, the Dewey Cox story, and I though, I've

642
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: never seen that before. So I hit Mike up and said,

643
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 1: he you don't do a podcast MultiMate podcasts. Well, since

644
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: it's music, I'll review it, and you're blah blah blah.

645
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: Here we are. Had Mike seen it, I've seen it

646
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: when it first came out. I had to rewatch it.

647
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: What was your thought of it before you went into

648
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: it that the second time. Did you remember liking it

649
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: or no. I remember liking it and thinking it was funny,

650
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: but I think I had kind of had a different

651
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: outlook on it this time around. Well, so it's a

652
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: music parody movie. It's parodying two things. One these bio

653
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: pics and music. It's a whole movie parody parodying how

654
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: biopics are made, and then two walk to Line Johnny Cash.

655
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: It's like two parodies happening at the same time. So

656
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 1: if you haven't seen it first, let's say if we

657
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 1: liked it or not. I thought it was really funny

658
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: because I'd see all the movies that was parodying which

659
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: is ray, which is the drug stuff A lot, a lot.

660
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: It was a lot of the Ray stuff because they're like, ray,

661
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: you don't want to heroin and and the Dewey Cox

662
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: he walks in the first time and he's young and

663
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: they're he's smoking, they're smoking weeds and uh, tim to

664
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: meadows to meadows like, man, you don't want this week

665
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: walk away and was like it was like, what's weed?

666
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 1: And he's like, well, it makes you feel good and

667
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: he's like yeah, he goes and it's not addictive at all,

668
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: and he goes really and he goes, yeah, and it's

669
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: actually not that expensive either, do it though? And so

670
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: and that was a recurring thing to where the drugs

671
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: got bigger and harder every time. And it was because

672
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 1: that's kind of what Johnny Cash happened, like and walk

673
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 1: the line, you know, you walk in, they'd be doing

674
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: drugs like home, let me try some of that. Um,

675
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: you know. The funny part of it too, was, you know,

676
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: because a lot of these even Bohemian Rhapsody, which happened

677
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: way after the fact, Queen just goes boom boom boom

678
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 1: their superstars in the movie because you don't have four, five, six,

679
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: seven hours to do the actual Queen bio pick. But

680
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: in walk Hard Dewey, who um is trying to make music.

681
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: He starts playing and this first song he ever plays

682
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: at a school talent show, the kid just get up

683
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: and start dancing, like five seconds into the first song,

684
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: and then a big rioter rubts like that music. The

685
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: priest is upgoing that's double music. So you know, I

686
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: thought the whole famale was pretty funny. I would I

687
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 1: would give it three and a half out of five guitars.

688
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: The second time around, I gave it four. Yeah, yeah, Eddie, listen, man,

689
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: It's been a while since I've seen it, but I'd

690
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: give it four and a half out of five because

691
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: I remember loving it so much. I wonder if John

692
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: c Riley was a person that they wanted to do

693
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: that movie originally, because I could see Will Ferrell doing

694
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,479
Speaker 1: that movie, you know, and a lot of movies they

695
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: don't get the main guy if they didn't write it

696
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: for the main guy, or if the main guy didn't

697
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: write it. So I thought John Cerley was awesome, and

698
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: I think he was really singing to That's really yeah,

699
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 1: because it sounded like his voice. It starts off and

700
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: John c Riley's a kid and his little brother is

701
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: there too, and this is very Johnny Cash because Johnny

702
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: Cash all brother died, his brother died, was a kid,

703
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 1: and Johnson really actually cuts him in half with the machete.

704
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: He gets having fun, but they're doing all these things

705
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 1: where they should die at the beginning of it, and

706
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,359
Speaker 1: they get out of it unscathed. And then they're having

707
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 1: a machete fight at the end, and they're the covers

708
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 1: are on a little sword fight, and then he cuts

709
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 1: his brother in half. And then then he do like

710
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: a blue song like brother Well, he goes over to

711
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: the it's fresh to me, I just thought it. He

712
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 1: goes over to the blue he goes like the gas station,

713
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: like the general store, and there's a blues go over

714
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: there playing in the corner, and he's like, I'm curious

715
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: about that music. And the guy goes, you don't live

716
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: a life you have to but to have the blues,

717
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 1: And so he takes the guitar and he goes, well,

718
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: I no, I never played guitar, but and then all

719
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,479
Speaker 1: of a sudden he's it's a He hits one chord

720
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: and it's terrible and the guy goes, well, do you

721
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: think do you fingure like this? So he puts his

722
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: finger down and he goes and he's like a kid

723
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 1: right at this he's like six, And then he starts

724
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: singing a perfectly played blue song and he's like, I

725
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: think I got at it. I got the blues. I

726
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 1: killed my Brother's pretty good for your first So and

727
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: the whole story is him trying to not avenge his

728
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: brother's death. But he told his brother before he died

729
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: he would try to be a lot because his brother

730
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: was super talented as a kid. Um. And so then

731
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 1: you follow Dewey. But except for the tiny first part.

732
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,879
Speaker 1: Kid John c Roley's playing every age of the kid

733
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: from like fifteen he's but he says his age, well,

734
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: I'm only fifteen, even though he's an adult man. That's

735
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: so funny to me, the funny if you're way inside,

736
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: I could see where this movie will be hilarious. I

737
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,280
Speaker 1: was laughing out loud on a lot of parts of Kaitlin.

738
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: My girlfriend did not love it. She thought it was okay,

739
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,399
Speaker 1: maybe a blow okay, because she how many times she's

740
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: saying this is stupid. Um, I don't think she would

741
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 1: want to take away my joy. So at the end

742
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: when it was over, she was like, that's kind of doubt.

743
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: But I don't think that she you know, she doesn't

744
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: work in music. She's not a big Johnny Cash fan.

745
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,799
Speaker 1: She hasn't seen all those biopicks, so I wasn't really

746
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: meant for her. Um, what was your favorite part of

747
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: the movie? Might I really thought the Bob Dylan parody

748
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: stuff was pretty funny. When he like starts changing his

749
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 1: style and start doing Bob Dylan, He's like, maybe Bob

750
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,479
Speaker 1: Dylan sounds like me. Yeah, you guys to a press

751
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 1: conference because he's trying to find out who he is

752
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: as an artist, and then goes to a press conference

753
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: and they're they're like, hey, man, what do you say

754
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:21,919
Speaker 1: to people? Just say you just sound like Bob Dylan.

755
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: He goes, what do you said? Bob Dylan wan to say,

756
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: he sounds like me, and then it cuts to him

757
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: and he's doing a terrible Bob Dylan impression. Obit reference

758
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 1: things and he's like the three odd monkey and he

759
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:38,399
Speaker 1: sounds like Dylan. I don't look out the doaster. Yeah, Eddy,

760
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: how long did you watch that movie when it first

761
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: came out? I remember I'm such a Pearl Jam fan,

762
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,359
Speaker 1: and I remember that he's in it. So that's why

763
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, well, I have to watch this

764
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: and so, I mean I watched it when it came out.

765
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: But the part that always comes up but that I

766
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: remember is the drug scene. I'm just like, it starts

767
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 1: with weed and then cocaine and all it's like, you

768
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 1: don't want this do it? At the end, they're there,

769
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: what are they taking? At the very very end, he goes, no,

770
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna. He goes, oh viag because he's old,

771
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: and he goes, you know, no temptations for me, and

772
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: he walks out and the temptations are literally sinking in

773
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: the hallway and they're like, I guess you, and he's

774
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: like no. But that The other recurring thing is he

775
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: always grabs sinks and right he pulls them off and

776
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 1: slams it down. Right, Um, did Johnny Cash do that?

777
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: And I walked the line. I think that's why they

778
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: do that, right, I don't know that joke over. It's

779
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: like every bathroom he goes into it, he gets manages

780
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 1: rips to sink off the wall, and then don't they

781
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: do the like, what's he doing? He's like he stakes

782
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: that time to be quiet with his hands up against

783
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 1: the wall. At the very beginning, it starts and ends

784
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 1: like that's right, that's before he plays the show. He

785
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,399
Speaker 1: hads to think about his entire life. They're like Mr

786
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: Cash one minute and the guy goes, I get him second.

787
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 1: You got thinking out of life here, And that's how

788
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: the whole movie starts. And it starts beginning all the

789
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: way up to that moment. Before every show he's thinking

790
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:03,959
Speaker 1: about his whole life. It's even funnier talking about because

791
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 1: you think about the great comedies of our day. It's

792
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: funny you're the second, third, and fourth time because you

793
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 1: can laugh about all the funny things with your friends.

794
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: And it's probably I probably watch it again now. I

795
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: think it was even funny because I would catch things. Um.

796
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 1: Kristen Wigg is in it playing his wife, playing Johnny

797
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: Cash's first wife. Basically they had all the kids. Um.

798
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: And then Jenna Fisher, who plays Pham on the Office,

799
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: ends up being June Carter. I don't think that was

800
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,439
Speaker 1: her singing though. I don't think so, because that person

801
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: had a really great voice, like it really and it

802
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: sounded a little different than than Jenni Fisher, Um and

803
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: what was your favorite part of the movie that you

804
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 1: can remember. My tears was to Bob Dylan. My favorite

805
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: part of the movie. There were just so many parts

806
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: that I would like because she would fall asleep and

807
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: I would be laughing. My body could be shaking. Um.

808
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 1: When he was trying to make the perfect song and

809
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 1: he had hired people from every country, it's it sounds

810
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,320
Speaker 1: like five songs that wants being made in the recording studio.

811
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 1: It's like the seventies. He's trying to make the perfect

812
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,879
Speaker 1: anthem for life, and it's like aborigines, it's like surfers,

813
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 1: it's like a goat is doing an instrument. He's like,

814
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,399
Speaker 1: I'm trying to make the perfect song. He's spending all

815
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: this money and he can't make the perfect song. That

816
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 1: to me is funny because that's every artist before they

817
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,879
Speaker 1: get old, but after they've been young, that's right, trying

818
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: to change it, trying to change it and find that

819
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: right thing to get back on the map because they're

820
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: not all the way off. I think there's good has

821
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 1: more vocals on this song than I do. Man and

822
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 1: he goes back to reunite the band at the end um.

823
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 1: Then they go because he's getting a Lifetime Achievement award,

824
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: which is why they all get back together. Um. And

825
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: so he gets the part where I laughed out lot.

826
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: Maybe the most was it's a very end because he's

827
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: playing and then the crowd loves the song. His manager

828
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: dies in the middle of the song, and then his

829
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,959
Speaker 1: back as a ghost on side stage with his dad

830
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: and his brother. He dies, he comes back as it

831
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: goes that quick you see him go. He died, and

832
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: I'll said, He's like, what the crowd and he's on

833
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: side stage as it goes. That was funny. And then

834
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: Johnny Sorry does his song at the Lifetime achieve An

835
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 1: award and plays in the crowd loves it and he's like,

836
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: this is what life's about. Boom boom boom, and then

837
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: on the bottom of the screen of freeze and goes

838
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: Dewey Cox died three minutes later. That's too funny, man,

839
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,840
Speaker 1: it was, And then talking about it, it's even funnier

840
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: to me. Did he hang out with the Beatles at

841
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: one point in time? So here Elvis. First of all,

842
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 1: Elvis was coming off the stage and like Elvis like

843
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: kept karate chopping on that was a side stage funny

844
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: part that. Another part was when they were coming off

845
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: side stage him and as a guitar player, he was like, hey, man,

846
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 1: let's try let's try girls tonight. Let gonna take that

847
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: one do He did, and he goes, but this is

848
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: my wife. He goes, Yeah, like I said, he take

849
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: his wife. So that happened. But then the Beatles they're

850
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:50,839
Speaker 1: in India. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he went like on one

851
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 1: of those trips with him and it was him and

852
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: his band and the Beatles are played by If I

853
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: can remember this right, Jason Schwartzman, is he one of them?

854
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: He is? Hold on mean care. Paul Rudd was one

855
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:09,280
Speaker 1: of the Beatles. Jason Jason Schwartzman. Um Jack Black played

856
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 1: Paul McCartney. Uh huh, Paul Rudd played John Lennon. Jason

857
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: Schwartzman and I'm forgetting they're all known actors. Here's the

858
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: other one, Justin Long, Oh, justin Long, that's right. And

859
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,320
Speaker 1: then Jack White was Elvis. Oh, Jack White was Elvis.

860
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: Oh I didn't catch this, Hey, I didn't catch that.

861
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Well you know, if I'm gonna bump mine

862
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: from three and a half to three and three quarters

863
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,840
Speaker 1: from the conversation because I'm laughing now thinking about it,

864
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: and if we talked about it again, you'd probably bump

865
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: it up another half. Probably I'd probably watch it again.

866
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 1: I think it was even funnier when he's buying all

867
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: the animals he's buying, you know, he buys a giraffe.

868
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: I don't remember this well. He brings it. He gets

869
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: a giraffe from playing it like the zoo as a gift,

870
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: and so he's like, I don't want five thousands, said

871
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: how much that draft? The drafts eating they have a

872
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 1: giraffe to have a monkey because they're doing custody and

873
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,399
Speaker 1: only wants a monkey, and he's like, you can take

874
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: the children, leave my money. The funniest part and I

875
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: forgot the funniest part to me at the end. He's old,

876
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 1: as in out of prime. He's probably fifty or so,

877
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: and he's sitting there and he's broken everything in his

878
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 1: house and he turned over the piano, he smashed, all

879
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: the sinks all broken, and a kid comes up and goes, hey, Dad,

880
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: because he got a bunch of kids. He goes, can

881
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 1: we have a catch? And he's like, man, I think

882
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,799
Speaker 1: i'd really like to have a catch right now, and

883
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 1: he goes, great, Dad, he goes, but if you don't,

884
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 1: mommy ask and I hope this isn't inappropriate. What's your

885
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: name again? He goes, I'm Dewey Cox Jr. They called

886
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,800
Speaker 1: me so uh. It was funny. It's really funny. It

887
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,840
Speaker 1: had small parts of really funny and a string of

888
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 1: pretty funny. You're right and and now thinking back at it,

889
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that they were making fun of a

890
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 1: bunch of different pairs or biopics and just how they work. Yes, yes,

891
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 1: because they have to speak because they were like olways

892
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: play and he isn't the one note of the song

893
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 1: and the kids are like just the greatest song. So um, yeah,

894
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 1: Dewey Cox Walk Hard was good. I would watch walk

895
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 1: the Line first, Yeah, for sure, to get some reference. Yes,

896
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: where does this rank on like your favorite parody movies?

897
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: Because it's kind of a weird. I don't know, another

898
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: parody movie like scary movie, another teen movie, stuff like that,

899
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: because I mean there was like a whole series of

900
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: them probably around when when the time this movie came out.

901
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of why I didn't do so

902
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: well is because a bunch of parody movies were like

903
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: trying to be like it's trying to be like scary movie,

904
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: and scary movie was a parody of what scream of scream?

905
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: And then they came out with like a parody of

906
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: like Twilight and epic movies and all never saw any

907
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: of the strings, And you're trying to make fun of them,

908
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 1: but you're also trying to kind of return making a

909
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 1: bad movie essentially. I think that's why it's hard for

910
00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: them to be successful. Sometimes the best has to be

911
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: Baseball's right. I don't remember it, but it was a parody.

912
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: I mean I remember a scene where they're having a

913
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,800
Speaker 1: sword fight to them and they're holding about their crotch

914
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 1: whatever it is about airplane, airplane airplanes. Good never saw it.

915
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 1: I maybe this and we can. I don't consider spinal tap, though,

916
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: a parody of movies, a parody of the music at

917
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 1: the time, which is another great one. So Mike number one,

918
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 1: that's what's my number one? Your favorite parody of my

919
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,359
Speaker 1: favorite one? Just because you don't watch a lot of them,

920
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,759
Speaker 1: we should do like one of these a month and

921
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: review a music movie. Yeah, and like, but we just

922
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 1: get there. There are spoilers, but the movie. The movie

923
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: is pretty old, but no, no, but that the whole

924
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 1: point of it is that we're not going to try

925
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: to get you to watch it. We're just kind of

926
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: talking about it. Yeah, you can watch it on Netflix.

927
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 1: It's yeah, that's where I watch it now. I saw also,

928
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: is Rocketman on Netflix or something? Now? I think it's

929
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: on Amazon on Amazon for free, I mean me, I

930
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 1: mean if you have Amazon Prime. But I've never seen it,

931
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,799
Speaker 1: so that's definitely on my list. Pop Star, I haven't

932
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 1: seen it. Pop Stars another one of those they say

933
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 1: it was really good that didn't get the love it

934
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: should have got then, but has become a cult classic.

935
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,319
Speaker 1: It's Lonely Island and it's basically a parody of Justin

936
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 1: Bieber's life. Oh, I didn't know that supposed to be funny,

937
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 1: I think, so, I'll google. But John c Riley, I

938
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 1: was looking at movies from him real quick because he's

939
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 1: really funny. But he's also done serious stuff, right, Yeah,

940
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 1: he's not a bunch of serious. The first time I

941
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 1: ever saw him was Days of Thunder? What was it?

942
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: What was he? I saw he was in that? He

943
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 1: was like I think in in Cold Trickles Pit Team

944
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: step Brothers amazing. Yeah, it's good. Did you ever see

945
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: step brother Yeah? Standing Alie was great with John c Riley,

946
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 1: Laurel and Hardy. What it's about. It's sad and it's

947
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 1: about their story, their life story, like a biopic of

948
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 1: Um Laurelan, Hardy, Um Talladegan Knights obviously, Shake and Bake.

949
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: I never saw that. You never saw Talent Nights, Wow,

950
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:54,080
Speaker 1: Walk Hard obviously, Wreck At Ralph? Was he Ralph? And

951
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:57,800
Speaker 1: Is it's a big movie, Guard into the Galaxy. I

952
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 1: don't know what he was in. Then it's a hide

953
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 1: character Chicago the Musical, but yeah, the movie, the musical,

954
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:10,839
Speaker 1: Boogie Nights, The Perfect Storm, Days of Thunder, Magnolia. He's

955
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 1: but he's done a bunch of stuff that's just not

956
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 1: straight ahead comedy. But I've never been kissed. Aviator the promotion.

957
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,319
Speaker 1: Do you know any of these movies? Aviator? Yeah? Aviator yeah, Yeah.

958
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 1: And then Perfect Storm was good. Yeah. Jimmy Hoffa, he's

959
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: bere in a bunch of freaking movies. But he's not elite.

960
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,279
Speaker 1: I mean, he wasn't a lead for a long time.

961
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: Walk Carlo, Yeah, this was the first one. Yeah, it

962
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: was great. I thought he was great, did it all? Right? Well,

00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: we just did fifteen minutes talking about a movie. What's

964
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: the next one we could do? We don't have to

965
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 1: do one a month, but I'm I want to watch

966
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: pop Star. Yeah, okay, I write that down too. Just

972
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:14,319
Speaker 1: Pop Star movie says, never stop stopping. Okay, all right,

973
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 1: it's got seventy and rotten tomatoes. Childhood friends Connor, Owen

974
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: and Lawrence found fame and fortune after forming the hip

975
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 1: hop group The Style Boys. Owen and Lawrence faded in

976
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 1: the background when frontman Connor left the band to launch

977
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: a successful solo career. Now, the egotistical singer decides to

978
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,719
Speaker 1: film a documentary about his life when he's still on top.

979
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 1: When a second album flops, the cameras are to capture

980
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 1: his whole world crashing down. Andy sam berks, that looks

981
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,720
Speaker 1: like could be pretty funny. It sounds it lost money,

982
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 1: but Lonely Island's funny to me and that it is

983
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: unofficially like justin Bieber. I don't know. I guess it

984
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:48,760
Speaker 1: could be all of them. I think Bieber was blowing

985
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: up at this time. So you know which one I

986
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: thought was really good? It came out well back with

987
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 1: Jersey Boys. Do you ever watched Jersey Boys? Yeah? The

00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 1: it was a Broadway play, but I saw it in

991
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. Is that good? Like plays like a great

992
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 1: it's live you know all the songs. Yeah, that's what
