1
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 1: Welcome to End the Weeds, and I want to start

2
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: by saying, we gotta leave John Stamos alone. I don't

3
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: know what happened here where we can't have a fun

4
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: conversation and people not take things the wrong way. But

5
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: I also feel bad about what's happened over the past

6
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: four or five days because it was never the intent

7
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: to get clickbait headlines from an interview.

8
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 2: It actually never is with me.

9
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: The one thing that I don't do is chase the

10
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: clickbait because I know if I'm clickbaiting people, that's only

11
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: gonna last so long before people don't come on my show.

12
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: So that happens, especially with artists in Nashville. I never

13
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: clickbait folks. I might build a good teas on top

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: of a video and then you watch the video and

15
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: you go, dang, okay, cool, But I'm never even gonna

16
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: chase like anything salacious for the sake of it. If

17
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,279
Speaker 1: you don't know what I'm talking about, let's rewind at

18
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 1: John Stamos on The Bobby Cast last week. It was

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: last Tuesday's episode, and if you want to listen to it,

20
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: go search the Bobbycast on the podcast. You might be

21
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: listening to it because this goes up on that feed

22
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: podcast wise, or we can go to Netflix and watch him.

23
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: But I thought it was pretty cool because I love

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: John Stamos, because I love and loved Full House. So

25
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: originally I was going to go to Los Angeles to

26
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: interview him in person. That was not able to work out,

27
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: and as I've talked about before, I don't really like

28
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 1: doing remote interviews. I'll do a few if I feel

29
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: like the person is like so interesting for me that

30
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: we can get through that little communication barrier.

31
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 2: So I didn't know how it's going to go.

32
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: And we get John Stamos on and he comes on

33
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: and immediately we're kind of feeling each other out, and

34
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: we're both pretty like dry, a bit sarcastic sense of humors,

35
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: but we really hit our stride about halfway through the interview.

36
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: He's trying to figure out where he knows me from,

37
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: and the answer is nowhere until we're talking about Dancing

38
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: with the Stars because from Fuller House. He had brought

39
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: up Fuller House and how he was a producer on

40
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: the show, and he had brought up how he was

41
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 1: also on that show that was the Netflix version of

42
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: full House, like the sequel or just an older version

43
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: of them, And I said, oh, speaking of that on

44
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: my season of Dancing with the Stars was womp, Pablo,

45
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: and he's like, that's where I know you from, and

46
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: it's pretty funny. He sorted, calling me a jackass, and

47
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 1: again it was all in fun. We might have talked

48
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: about Dancing with the Stars for four minutes total because

49
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: he's never done the show. I like talking about the

50
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: show if it's someone who's done it, but he's never

51
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: done the show. And I asked him, Hey, would you

52
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: ever do it? And he had a funny remark. He

53
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: was like, no, because people did do that show. People

54
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: like to watch him fall down, not be good at it,

55
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: get hurt. He was obviously kidding, because the whole interview

56
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: was us just kind of busting each other's balls. But

57
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: on top of that, he wasn't completely wrong either, Like.

58
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 2: Why do you think people watch that show.

59
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: It's not to watch really good dancers that are already

60
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: famous dance with a pro dancer. You do have some

61
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: of those, but people like to watch the bad dancers.

62
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: People like to watch the dancers that maybe aren't as

63
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: good get better. That's a part of that show. So

64
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: on two parts, like justice for John Stamos. One he

65
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: was making a joke and when I saw page six

66
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: pick it up, and I saw E News pick it up,

67
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: and I saw.

68
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 2: I think that's all the channels.

69
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: I think I saw a couple other channels too, these

70
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: influencer Instagram accounts to talk about reality shows podcasts. We're

71
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: just going hard on John Stamos, saying, oh, you think

72
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: you're so good for Dancing with the Stars. They didn't

73
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: watch the show, so they're formulating these opinions off of

74
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: basically one headline. The headline maker didn't watch the show,

75
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: and everybody who's reading that just read the article from

76
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: the person who didn't watch the show, and they didn't

77
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: watch the show, and now they're going hard on John Stamos.

78
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 2: And I felt guilty.

79
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Because all the guy did was agreed to come on

80
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: my show and be a great interview guest. It was

81
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: a wonderful interview, especially considering we weren't in the same room.

82
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 1: And I don't like doing remote interviews because a lot

83
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: of those don't go well. They're not bad, but they're

84
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: very mid a lot of times because of that communication barrier.

85
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: So I did I felt guilty and he texted me

86
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 1: and he said, hey, is the way After the fact,

87
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: he was like, boy, we got a little press in

88
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: that Dancing with the Stars clip, huh, And I said, yeah, I'm.

89
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 2: Sorry about that.

90
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: And what's frustrating is that nobody watched it and everybody

91
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: had a comment on it, and that all the comments

92
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: were negative. Honestly, if the comments would have been positive

93
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 1: and not everyone would have watched it, that'd been great, but.

94
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 2: You know how that goes.

95
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: Positive comments don't create engagement. Only negative ones do. And

96
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: I even was irritated at people from the Dancing with

97
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: the Stars cast for going after John Stamos because they

98
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 1: didn't watch it. You don't have to watch it, but

99
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: if you're not gonna watch it, don't comment on it.

100
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: Like I wrote on my Instagram, it's like watching the

101
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: trailer for a movie and then given a movie review you.

102
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: Didn't even watch it. And I saw.

103
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: Sharna and I don't think it was coming from any

104
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: place other than she was just defending the show. But

105
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: you could tell she didn't watch it because she was

106
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: going hard on John Stamos, saying I'm not gonna let

107
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: you insult, and she was saying nice things about me

108
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: but she didn't watch it, and so I'm in this

109
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: weird place where I think this Sharna was a little

110
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: bit out of turn with what she was saying because

111
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: he was kidding. And then Alfonso Robero comments on something

112
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: it's like, if you don't want to be on our show,

113
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: we don't want them. So it really turned into something

114
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: that it shouldn't have that I felt guilty about, and

115
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: I just wanted to say, leave John Stamos alone. And

116
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: for the most part, I think hopefully we're beyond that now.

117
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: It would be funny now if he did Dancing with

118
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: the Stars. It would even be funnier if all this

119
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: was just publicity to get him on Dancing with the Stars,

120
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: Like I'm not so dumb to not have planned all

121
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: of this. Like what a great thing to have him

122
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: say something like that. We send it to a PR team,

123
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: get somebody to print it, everybody starts running with it.

124
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: Next thing you know, boom, John Stamios is on and

125
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: it's this huge press.

126
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 2: But it wasn't that, or was it.

127
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: Am I just saying that now to Calender, No, if

128
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: he does the show, that'll just be because he was

129
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 1: so overwhelmed by the negative press so John Stamos Uncle

130
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,559
Speaker 1: Jesse was treated unfairly leave him alone, And I had

131
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 1: a little guilt about that because he came out on

132
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: my show. And it also keeps guests from being like

133
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: free in interviews, because the worst is when you get

134
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: someone and they have to constantly second guess everything they're

135
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: saying because they know that any little part of it

136
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: might be a headline. Go watch it, go listen to it.

137
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: You'll see for yourself. It was a fantastic, fantastic episode.

138
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: I was asked by a couple listeners.

139
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: If there were things that I don't or refuse to

140
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: say when it comes to the show or commercials. And

141
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this morning because this was in

142
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: a commercial that I was supposed to read and I

143
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: didn't say it, but I was doing a commercial and

144
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: one of the lines was, Hey, trust me, you can

145
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: trust da da da da da da. One thing that

146
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: I will not say in a commercial at any point ever,

147
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: is trust me, because nothing sounds more like a used

148
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: car salesman. Then go and trust me. I want you

149
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: to trust me because you literally do, because we've spent

150
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: enough time together, you listening to a podcast show, watching

151
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: these videos, consuming whatever, content that you trust me based

152
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: on I've said things that turned out to be accurate,

153
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: or I've said things that I truly believed accurate or not,

154
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: but you know I actually believed them. So one of

155
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: them is trust me. I will not say that in

156
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: a commercial. Number two is tell them Bobby sent you.

157
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: It's the worst. And this is such a nineteen eighties

158
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: commercial technique. And I don't always think it's the business's fault.

159
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: Sometimes I think it's the copyright writer's fault or the

160
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: sales team's fault, because I will they're called spots, we

161
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: call them spots. I'll get these spots in and it's

162
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: for a brand that I'm very comfortable with that either

163
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: I use or someone close to me uses, because I

164
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: won't really take them otherwise. And it'll say da da

165
00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: da da, and tell them Bobby sent you.

166
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: I almost say it now.

167
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: I used to say it, but what it is now

168
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: is basically a promo code. Because you know, if you

169
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: get something on Instagram or if you hear a podcast,

170
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: I say promo code, Bobby. What that's going to do

171
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: is it's going to track to see if people heard

172
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: you say it. Use the promo code. It's not even

173
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,319
Speaker 1: that you're really going to get a deal. You might

174
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: sometimes sometimes there are literal deals, sometimes not. It's just

175
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: a tracker to see what podcasts are sending the most

176
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: people to this place.

177
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 2: And this is the early version of that.

178
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: But I've never been to a single business where I've

179
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: told the person at the business so and so sent me,

180
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: unless it's like my cousin working there or something. So

181
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 1: I realized a long time ago that if I said, Hey,

182
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: go to McDonald's, but tell him Bobby sent you, you might

183
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: go to McDonald's because I gave a pretty compelling argument

184
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: as to why McDonald's is really good. But even if

185
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: you go because I told you, it's gonna feel stupid

186
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: if you go, hey, Bobby sent me, because they're gonna go, huh,

187
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: who's Bobby Why? Okay, So I don't say that anymore,

188
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: but I think that was in the eighties a way

189
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: to track who was successfully doing a good enough job

190
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: at commercials to send people places.

191
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 2: But they still write them.

192
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 1: Today, and it blows my mind, and I will remove them,

193
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: and then I will get no going. Hey, you forgot

194
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: to say hey, telling Bobby sent you, And then I

195
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: will say I did not forget to say tell them

196
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: Bobby sent you.

197
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 2: I will not say telling Bobby sent you.

198
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: Because even if they did go because I'm a recommendation,

199
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: they're not going to say that. And when they don't

200
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 1: say that, people are going to hold that against me

201
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: because there aren't people coming in going tell them Bobby

202
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: sent you. So those are really the only two things

203
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: that I don't say during commercials as a general rule.

204
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,199
Speaker 1: I was looking at the guests for the Bobby Cast

205
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: over January up until this point, and as I record this,

206
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: we're in the middle of July, and people are always

207
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: interested in like, who are the biggest guests. And I

208
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: did make a comment a few weeks ago that I

209
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: don't necessarily need guests. I like to have great guests

210
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: because I think we both benefit from each other. Guests

211
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: will come in with something to promote, some great stories

212
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: to tell, maybe they get a few Instagram followers because

213
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: of it. And I also am able to have a

214
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: great guest on and give you, guys my audience really

215
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: compelling content.

216
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,359
Speaker 2: But I don't need guests.

217
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: There was a time in the radio show where I

218
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: was asked, Hey, why are you not putting anybody on?

219
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: And my answer was.

220
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: I think if we're just doing our show, people are

221
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: more entertained by that than they are with specific guests

222
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: that we're trying to come on the show.

223
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 2: But that's not always the case.

224
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: But I do have the top ten guests on the Bobbycast.

225
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: And the reason I bring this up is that the

226
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: number one and number two best performing podcasts of the

227
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: entire year on the bobbycastre it's it's me and my

228
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: wife just talking.

229
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 2: It's me and my wife talking about.

230
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: Before she got no I guess she was pregnant, but

231
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: before she had our baby, and then the one after

232
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: the baby, and they by far dwarf any of the

233
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: celebrity episodes. Now, there's some great celebrity episodes that I'm

234
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: gonna share with you here, and I don't want to

235
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: take anything away from them, but three of the next

236
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: top seven are just me talking about myself. Now, I'm

237
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: not gonna put those in this top ten list because

238
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do celebrities. But when people were busting my

239
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: balls saying now you need guests, I.

240
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 2: Don't need guests. I like to have really great guests

241
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: because they're fun.

242
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 1: If they're awesome, it's super fun because then I just

243
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 1: don't have to talk all the time.

244
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 2: But here we go. Top ten.

245
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: Number one this year has been Kane Brown, he got

246
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: the gold medal A plus episode. All these are up

247
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: if you want to go check them out. Number two

248
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: was Ashley mcbrie one where she was so open and

249
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: honest about her sobriety and her journey to it. And

250
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: I really like Ashley as a person, and I thought

251
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: that episode really did well, and that one has continued

252
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: to do well, like consistently over time.

253
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,319
Speaker 2: What happens a lot of times, too.

254
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: Is these episodes on a podcast feed, they get so

255
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: far up the feed that people don't really see them

256
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: anymore because we're not going to go searching, you know,

257
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: pull the old search bar back, they'll toggle bar. But

258
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 1: people keep finding the Ashley McBride episode. It's really great.

259
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: Number three is Tom bergeron speaking of Dancing with the

260
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 1: Stars from earlier. That was fun because it was the

261
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: first time that Tom and I had talked since we

262
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: had our little immature spat where I was equally at

263
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: fault as he was, and it was the first time

264
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: that we had spoken since that, and I wanted that

265
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: to be on camera. I didn't want us to prepare anything,

266
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: and you know, talk with each other before. Like the

267
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: first time that we saw each other after our little

268
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: I had to say fight because this is all wrestling

269
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: to me, like none of this really matters.

270
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 2: Was whenever the cameras came on.

271
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: I love that guy, Luke Combs at four at number five,

272
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:17,959
Speaker 1: Morgan Evans, he came in, talked about his past relationship,

273
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: his life, a lot of that with him kind of

274
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: pouring it all out there. Something that's very interesting is

275
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: that I keep two phones, not because I'm cool and

276
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: need them both, but because my old number is a

277
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: number that I still have connected to certain accounts that

278
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: sometimes they have to send me that four digit code,

279
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: and so I don't want to get rid of the number.

280
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: And I'm sure there's an easier way than just keeping

281
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: a second phone line. So sometimes it's like you, we're

282
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: going to send you this verification code and I'm like,

283
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: oh man, it's my old number, so go back to it,

284
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: and I find that I type it in And after

285
00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: that Morgan Evans interview, probably about a month after, I

286
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: got a text message from you know who that was

287
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: not very happy with that Morgan have his interview. It

288
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: wasn't a month after. I think it was like the

289
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: day after it came out, but I don't see it

290
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: because it was a month afterward.

291
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: I don't ever check that phone unless I have a

292
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: reason too.

293
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 1: But it was a pretty long one, and it started with, Hey,

294
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna screenshot this and post it.

295
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 2: But what am I gonna screenshot and post a text message? Crap?

296
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: Also, I didn't do anything wrong, he didn't do anything wrong.

297
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: Like we get to tell and by we all of

298
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: us get to tell our versions of our stories if

299
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: someone asks us. So Yeah, fun fact, I got a

300
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: full one of those really long ones where you see

301
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: it and you go, oh my god, I gotta read

302
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: all this and I did from you know who. And

303
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: to also think I was gonna screenshot a text message,

304
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: I don't do that.

305
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 2: I've never done that.

306
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: I've never screenshoted a DM someone sent me that was

307
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: supposed to be private. I never greenshot a text message.

308
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: This is that is not my style in any way.

309
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: Am I really great at getting pressed when I need it?

310
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: Absolutely a plus. But it's never at the cost of

311
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: anyone else, of anyone else's privacy. If anyone else says, hey,

312
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: please don't share this. But I think I never responded

313
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: because I didn't see it for a month or so later,

314
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: And that wasn't on purpose, because had it been to

315
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: my phone that day, I probably would have responded and said, oh, man,

316
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: I'm sorry you felt that way. But I do feel

317
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: like he gets to tell his part of the story

318
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: and he's also a friend, Like both of those things

319
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: matter to me.

320
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's kind of a crazy one.

321
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: Top five though of the year Morgan Evans, Marianna van Zeller,

322
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: who had a ton of great stories about the cartel

323
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: spending time with the cartel hackers, black Market, Kenny Chesney

324
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: at seven, Heather McMahon, the comedian at eight, Megan Maroney

325
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: at nine, Doctor Unger the plastic surgeon in the top ten,

326
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: which was really cool. So country is still the king

327
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,360
Speaker 1: here as far as guests, six out of the top

328
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: ten or country artists Tom bergeron huge numbers considering he's

329
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: a non musician. Marianna just also proves that compelling storytellers

330
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: and journalists they're good. If they're good at talking about it, man,

331
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: people are gonna love their stories. And you know, the

332
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 1: episodes with Caitlin or even the end. The Weeds episodes

333
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: do tremendously well, and it's just me here, yap and away.

334
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes I finish and I'm not even sure what I

335
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: was saying the whole time. So that's the ranking of

336
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: the biggest guests. I get a lot of questions about

337
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 1: either me getting sued or me suing anyone, and I

338
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: can answer both of those. And you guys can put

339
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: your comments and your questions down in the comments section,

340
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: and if there are questions, I try to look through

341
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: them and go back and answer as many as I can.

342
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,239
Speaker 1: It's where I get a lot of information for this

343
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 1: because I want to answer the questions that you guys

344
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 1: want to know. And so yeah, I get a decent

345
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: amount of questions asking about either me suing or getting sued.

346
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: I've only ever been sued once, and I can tell

347
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: you that story. This is probably twenty five or so

348
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: years ago, and I got on the air. I was

349
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 1: in Austin, and I said, Hey, I'm going to do

350
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: this April Fools bit, and just so you guys know

351
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: what's listening, I'm gonna do the bit. You're gonna be

352
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: in on the joke and we'll see what happens. And

353
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: so I play a song and I come back and

354
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: I say, hey, it looks like we've got Justin Timberlake's

355
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: like choreographer here. And so I had a listener on

356
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 1: and the listener like, yeah, we're working for Justin Timberlake.

357
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 1: I'm looking for some dancers, any background dncers that want

358
00:18:58,359 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: to come have them come up to your studio.

359
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 2: I didn't know they were going to say that part,

360
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 2: but whatever, and I'm like okay.

361
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: So then people just started lining up at the studio

362
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: and so they're up there and I'm talking to them

363
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: on the air. I'm like, you guys want to be

364
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: in the Justin timber later yeah, and I'm like, April

365
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 1: fools whatever, stupid bit long time ago. And so somebody

366
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,239
Speaker 1: sued me for that, me and my program director at

367
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 1: the time, named Jay, except what happened was we got

368
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: served as Bobby Bones and Jay Shannon, and that's neither

369
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: of our real names. So that was an issue. Secondly,

370
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:40,640
Speaker 1: there it was thrown out almost immediately. We quote settled

371
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: for concert tickets that we had in the station. So

372
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: we gave them concert tickets and they were like, okay,

373
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: we're all good. That's really been the only time I

374
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 1: don't want to jinx it. But have I been threatened?

375
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 2: Yeah?

376
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: About once every three months somebody threatens to sue. I

377
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: think a lot of times when someone is threatened they're

378
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: going to be sued, they start acting differently because they

379
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 1: don't want to have that financial burden of it.

380
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,880
Speaker 2: Even if they're right. They don't want to go through

381
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 2: the process.

382
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: If I'm right and I get sued, I'm going to

383
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 1: get so much press out of it because I'm fine,

384
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 1: I have enough money to go to Let's have a lawsuit,

385
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: and you're gonna end up paying all my legal fees

386
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: back once I win, and I'm going to milk it

387
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: so hard that utter will be shooting out blood by

388
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 1: the time it's over. So that's it on that part.

389
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 1: That's the only time that I've ever been sued, and

390
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: it was I guess I have never been sued. Bobby Bones,

391
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: the personality, was attempted to be sued, and in the

392
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: end we went to the prize closet and said, here's

393
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: some mid concert tickets and that was it. Have ever

394
00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: sued anybody? No, I'm not religious person at all. I

395
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 1: prepared to sue someone in the past six to nine

396
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: months or so. So what happened was I get a

397
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 1: call from a friend says, hey, there's this artist and

398
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 1: I won't say I don't want to give too many details,

399
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: like specific details. So say, there's this artist on a

400
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: certain program saying these things about you, and I don't

401
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 1: think they're true, but I'm just asking because it's happening

402
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: right now live, and it was happening live, but it

403
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: was being recorded for a different time. And I was like, no,

404
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,479
Speaker 1: that's not true at all, and the person said, okay,

405
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: just so you should know though this is all being said.

406
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: I was like, you serious, So finished my show. Call

407
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: the person back, say tell me again what was said,

408
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: And what was said was this artist knew ish artist

409
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: was claiming that they weren't successful in the music industry

410
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: because I wouldn't play their music and I wouldn't meet

411
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: them into a music meeting with them, and that my

412
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: position would meet with new artists, do music meetings and

413
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: then pick the music that would be played, and because

414
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: of that, they weren't allowed to have a successful career

415
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: because I had been shutting them out. Now there's a

416
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: little more to that, but any more details are gonna

417
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 1: probably shine a light on who it is. Now, why

418
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: that is just wholly inaccurate? Is I am in no

419
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: way music director. I've never had a single meeting with

420
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: an artist to talk about adding songs. You know why,

421
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: because I don't add songs. I do nothing with music.

422
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: In my contract, I have one hour a weekend that

423
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: I have dedicated to play female artists on a national show.

424
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: Now in that I don't even program that whole show,

425
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: and so in that I picked two songs a week

426
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: because the rest is programmed by Research and are head

427
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: of the format. So the only thing musically that I've

428
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: ever done is negotiate a one hour nationally. Other than that,

429
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: I don't meet with artists. I've never rejected an artist

430
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 1: to have a meeting about new music because I don't

431
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: meet about new music. So I universally don't even get

432
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: asked because I would never agree to that. So I

433
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: think they we're just looking for like the biggest name

434
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 1: to yell at that they could go, look, I'm being

435
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: victimized by this.

436
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 2: Name, which was crazy.

437
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,959
Speaker 1: So call my people, I said, if this hits and

438
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: it plays at all publicly, I'm much do the crap

439
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: out of them, because that is it's wildly false. In

440
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: no way is at my job. In no way is

441
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: it something I have ever done. There was all talk about, Yeah,

442
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: you take barbecue up to the station, he sits with

443
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: you and listens to your music.

444
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 2: And never once has anything like that happened.

445
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 1: Does it happen with radio music directors around the country,

446
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure it does. I have never It's never been

447
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: about music for me. Do I enjoy country music, yes?

448
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: Do I program it? In no way whatsoever? Can I

449
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: take a song and just play it because I like

450
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: it occasionally? Yeah, But I never wanted to be in

451
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: chart of the music because I never wanted to play

452
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: that game. There was a time in my early days

453
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: where I'd find songs I liked and go, this song's awesome,

454
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: and then it would pop, and then I would leave

455
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: it alone. And I had some real success stories with

456
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: songs that blew up because way early on it said

457
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: this one song. But I don't have the ability to

458
00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 1: add songs to anything ever other than my show, and

459
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: I don't want people always coming to me to play music.

460
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 2: So I left a lot of details out.

461
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 1: But that's the closest I've ever been to suing someone

462
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 1: because what I felt was happening was they just needed

463
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: a bad guy, and I was unlucky enough to be

464
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 1: the person they picked that day, and they went on

465
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: this national platform and we're like, Boby Bones wouldn't meet

466
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:26,919
Speaker 1: with me about my new music. I've never met with

467
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 1: a single person about music ever, nor will. I'm not

468
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 1: a music director, don't want to be in the music game.

469
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: I do content, that's it. But had it hit, had

470
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 1: it aired, I would assued just to set the precedent

471
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 1: of you can't go and just lie and also pissed

472
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 1: me off. So I've been both. You can't just go

473
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 1: and lie about stuff openly. So that's the closest I've

474
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:59,400
Speaker 1: ever been for suing anyone. I'm want to read some questions.

475
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 1: This is from DZ.

476
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think this.

477
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 1: Maybe it's a body account, but they're asking specific things.

478
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: But their name is d zbd ZB sixteen. Yeah, why

479
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: would you even have that name? But I don't know.

480
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 2: I'm curious.

481
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: While Bobby hires the women he does for the show,

482
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: he definitely seems to have a type in regards to work.

483
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,239
Speaker 1: While they each are amazing, strong women, he seems to

484
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 1: prefer they are airheaded and wishy, washy. Kaylin seems to

485
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: be very smart, a witty person, so it's not a

486
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 1: general life preference. Does he design it this way so

487
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: we can not challenge himself? I think the show would

488
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: be much better if he hired very intelligent, quick witted women.

489
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: What I would imagine here is this person thinks they're

490
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: a very intelligent, quick witted woman and they are not.

491
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: That's what I would imagine here. This is someone who's

492
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 1: upset that they're not able to do something. Amy's very smart.

493
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 1: I don't know what you want from me. No. I

494
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: hire people that I think are interesting, compelling, funny, and

495
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 1: don't tell me that Amy's not all that. So what

496
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: I think is this is not even a shot at

497
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 1: the women on the show.

498
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 2: I think this is you upset at your life.

499
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 1: I saw Caitlin Bristow doing something kind of funny on

500
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: her Instagram the other day.

501
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,400
Speaker 2: I think she had posted a video of her in a.

502
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 1: Swimsuit, and then she came back and she said, hey,

503
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 1: here are some comments from people that made posts about

504
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 1: me when I posted this video on a swimsuit, and

505
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 1: it's people posting really mean things about her. And then

506
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 1: she went and tracked down their faces and put it

507
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: up next to the comment, and it was all the

508
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: same type of person.

509
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 2: They were all women, probably like.

510
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: DZBDZB sixteen, because I'm assuming this person here that sent

511
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: me this is someone that thinks they're far more intelligent

512
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: and witty than they actually are, so they send comments

513
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 1: like this.

514
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 2: So yeah, there you go. Hek ty.

515
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 3: The Bobby Cast will be right back, and we're back

516
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 3: on the Bobby Cast.

517
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: From Cheryl Kaiser seventeen thirty three. I like to know

518
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: how all the cast of the radio show came together.

519
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: I'll watch you all and I think, what a fun group.

520
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 2: But how do they all meet?

521
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll start with Amy. And I wrote about this

522
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: in my book called Bare Bones. If you want to

523
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: hear the or read, listen to the audiobook, or you

524
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: can read the book the longer version of it. I

525
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: met Amy at a culvers in Austin, in North Austin.

526
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: I was getting my tires rotated and I walked over

527
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: to a culvers and Amy was there with her friend Andrea,

528
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 1: who I still know, and I met her there. And

529
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: then I was looking for a co host and I

530
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: did this open casting at the mall and Amy was

531
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: at the mall and I'd already met her at Culver's

532
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: and so I was like, Hey, why don't you do this?

533
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: And she jumped in and she was great. That's how

534
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: I met Amy was at a Culver's lunchbox. I met

535
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: him at a bar in Austin, and for the first

536
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: couple of years, lunchbox didn't have a microphone, and he

537
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: wasn't really in the studio that much. He was only

538
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: out on the phone calling in doing certain segments. And

539
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: not only that, I think at the very beginning he

540
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: was only in three days a week, like a Monday, Wednesday,

541
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 1: Friday type thing, because I think he was still working

542
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: at Jason's Deli in San Antonio and would drive up

543
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 1: because it was a part time job. We didn't have

544
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: any money as a show. But I met him at

545
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: a bar. I remember the segment where I thought, Okay,

546
00:29:55,000 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: there's something odd but really attractive about this guy as

547
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:02,959
Speaker 1: far as being on the air, as we had a

548
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: women's I think he's a rugby team up in studio

549
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: and he arm wrestled one of the women and lost

550
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: terribly and still talked so much garbage, and I thought

551
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: that guy's funny, like he has no idea, but that's

552
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: what makes it funny. So that's those two. Eddie was

553
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 1: my television producer in Austin. So Eddie did not start

554
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 1: by doing anything in radio. He was a television producer

555
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: at Emmy Television, which was a music channel that we did.

556
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 2: It was television. It was kind of a regional in.

557
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: The central Texas area and played a lot of music videos.

558
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: And so I got a job there and Eddie was

559
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: the producer of that music television show that played videos

560
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: and we talked about songs, and so it was just

561
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: a random Okay, this is your producer, Eddie, and here's

562
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: the guy hosting the show, Bobby. And we did that

563
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: show together and then we did kind of a late

564
00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: night show.

565
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 2: I might have shared this here. I think I have.

566
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: One of the segments that kind of got our late

567
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: night show canceled was you know, they have Chris Hansen

568
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: to catch a Predator. We were doing costumes from the

569
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: costume store and they were addressed as like characters like

570
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: the Lucky Charms guy, the I think Tigger Captain Crunch

571
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: and they would show up to the door and I

572
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: had like a camera above the door and they were

573
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 1: like dum Tom dum and we'd act like that character

574
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: was coming in and then Chris Hanson would come out

575
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: and be.

576
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 2: Like, oh, Captain Crunch, what are you doing here? Oh?

577
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: So it was to catch a predator spoof but with

578
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 1: big So this show was canceled. But we did that

579
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: for years and he would not be on the radio

580
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: show in Austin, but we hung out all the time.

581
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: He became my best friend in Austin, and when I

582
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: was moving here, I said, hey, you should come to

583
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: Nashville with us. Because he was a television producer. He

584
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: worked at News eight. He worked at that television station.

585
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: That's what he did was TV producer, cameraman and all that.

586
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: And I saw a photographer, what you did? I don't

587
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: want to talk down and he said, well, my job.

588
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: He said, you can run all the cameras for us,

589
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: right because we're investing heavily in the digital space.

590
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 2: We're gonna put cameras on every wall.

591
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 1: And I knew he wouldn't take the job because he

592
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: had not taken the job the multitude of times I

593
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: asked him to come and do that job in Austin.

594
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: And he also lived in Austin at the time, So

595
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 1: there's no way, he's going to move to Nashville. And

596
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: he's like, all right, I'm in wait what And so

597
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: the first job Eddie ever had with me in this

598
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: world radio podcasting was him moving to Nashville. So that's

599
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: how Eddie and I met. Mike d was an interned

600
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: for me in Austin. He just messaged me on social

601
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: media and said, Hey, how do I get a job

602
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: doing something like that? I said, well, well, why don't

603
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: you intern? Come on up here? And so he did

604
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: and he came up and he enterned forever, and from

605
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 1: that he turned into a board op. When we moved

606
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: from Austin to Nashville, he stayed back because he had

607
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: a job running maybe different maybe a morning show. He

608
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 1: was doing like weekend boardopping. And I said, once we

609
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 1: get over there and get settled, I will bring you.

610
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: And about a year later I said, hey, dude, it's

611
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: time to move. And so he did, packed up his crap,

612
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: moved Beverly, and I think he moved in with me

613
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: for a while because it was hey, I know right now,

614
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: you don't have anywhere to stay before you rent a place,

615
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: why don't you come to Nashville for a year or

616
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: so do the job. You can find a place while

617
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: you live here, because it's so much easier to find

618
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: a part of town you like when you get to

619
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: live there for a bit.

620
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 2: But yeah, Mike d did that. Ray Mundo was.

621
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: An intern for the Austin Show and we met because

622
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: I was filling in on AM thirteen hundred zone the

623
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: sports station and I didn't have a producer. He was

624
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: actually interning at the sports station and they said, Ray,

625
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: is it gonna be your producer the sports show? And

626
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: I said that's great, and so we worked together there

627
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: and I said, hey, why don't you come actually be

628
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: an intern on my show because I think you can

629
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: actually do more And he said great, and so he

630
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 1: was that, and he was an intern the whole time.

631
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: When we left, he was back, and I remember I

632
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: had a meeting with him when we were leaving Texas

633
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 1: to move to Tennessee and I said, hey, man, I

634
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: think I have your first job, like paying job.

635
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 2: He was like really. I said, yeah, are you willing

636
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 2: to move for this job though?

637
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 1: Because in this business a lot of times you just

638
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 1: have to move and he said, yeah, it doesn't matter

639
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 1: where it is.

640
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:35,399
Speaker 2: He had no idea.

641
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: It was me or that we were leaving yet, and

642
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 1: I said it's in It's in Tennessee, Like, does that

643
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: seem too far? And he was like, nope, I want

644
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 1: to do this business, so whatever the job is, let

645
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: me know and I'll go. I said, okay, it's in

646
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: Nashville and he said, okay, what other details can you

647
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: give me. I said, we're moving to Nashville. I want

648
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 1: you to come and be one of the main producers.

649
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 2: And he's like, no way.

650
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 1: So that was Ray Mundo moving with us and doing

651
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: that job. So yeah, sure, I'm forgetting people, but that's

652
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: mostly how we all came together in that way. I'm

653
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 1: sure there are other stories there. Scooba Steve was just

654
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: he used to work for Ryan Seacrest and that was

655
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: the time when I had way too much on my plate.

656
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: I was traveling a lot.

657
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 2: I was.

658
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 1: Not just traveling and touring, but I had I was

659
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: doing a lot of television in California, and I needed

660
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: somebody to delegate to because that was the hardest part

661
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: of my job, was actually delegating.

662
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 2: And trusting people.

663
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 1: And so Scooba Steve came over and took that job

664
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:39,760
Speaker 1: as executive producer.

665
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 2: Has been here forever and it has been awesome at it.

666
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 1: So but that was a complete setup, meaning, well, I

667
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: guess we interviewed people, but he was the guy, and

668
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: you just would not think Scuba Steve would be as

669
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: nice or as warm as he is, just because he

670
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: kind of looks like a devil worshper, meaning he's got

671
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: a bald head and he wears shirts with like, I

672
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: don't know, pointy things on it, and he's got a

673
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: big beard, and so you're thinking, man, this guy must

674
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: like stabcats or something. Really the loveliest guy, great leader.

675
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: So that's that from Nora Dune seventy twelve. When you

676
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: decide to write a book or pursue another avenue, how

677
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: do you rebalance your plate or what can you comfortably

678
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: step back from for a moment to put more efforts

679
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 1: somewhere else. Mostly I just have to recalibrate myself about

680
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 1: every six months and decide what is the most important.

681
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: I only have so much energy, especially now that I

682
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: have a baby, So there are certain things that I

683
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: do as hard and as much as I possibly can,

684
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 1: Like I don't travel as much to do as many

685
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: one off television shows as I used to, Like I

686
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 1: was mercenary for hire for a long time, and I

687
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 1: get calls and I go, do this show, Go do

688
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 1: that show, one show at a time, two episodes of this.

689
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,479
Speaker 1: I don't do that as much because it really breaks

690
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: up what we're doing here, especially when the Netflix still

691
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 1: was signed, especially with you know, the Bobby cast. The

692
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 1: bibone show is still by far the most important thing

693
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: I've written a book in a long time, because I

694
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: don't have capacity for it, and I feel like if

695
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: I don't have capacity for it, and I don't feel

696
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: good about the effort and energy I'm putting into it,

697
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: it's not going to be good. And I don't want

698
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 1: to put something out that's not good. You know something

699
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 1: else that I really haven't shared is that so with

700
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: twenty five Whistles, our sports show like that was never

701
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 1: supposed to be a show. I didn't really have interest

702
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: in doing a sports show at all. And DraftKings came

703
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 1: along and said, hey, we want you to come and

704
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 1: do a show for us, five days a week, and

705
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 1: they offer me a lot of money, seven figures, and

706
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: I said, I don't have the capacity to do that

707
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 1: because it will not be good and I don't want

708
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: to do it. And you guys be disappointed and me

709
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: not being able to give you the numbers that you're

710
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 1: paying for. So I said no to it, and they

711
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: said all right, And I didn't hear from them for

712
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: about a month or so, and they came back and

713
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: they said, what can you do? And I said, I

714
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: can do an episode a week, one episode a week podcast,

715
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,359
Speaker 1: And obviously the money was gonna be well less if

716
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 1: it was just one episode a week, and so we

717
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 1: ended up settling on two episodes a week, and DraftKings

718
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 1: is a major part of that show for about eight

719
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: months out of the year because during the summer, like now,

720
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: like what are you betting on? There's really nothing because

721
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 1: football is not happening, College basketball is not happening.

722
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 2: You're not really beat on baseball.

723
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: So for those eight months or so, they're a massive

724
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:37,360
Speaker 1: sponsor for the other four months or not so during

725
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 1: this four months, and who knows if they come back

726
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: on it, because they've been a great partner for the

727
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: past few years. But for this four month span, I've

728
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: been doing one episode and then I do the first

729
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: fifteen or twenty minutes of that second episode, and I

730
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: let Eddie and Kevin and Mike do it without me,

731
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: so they can develop their skills at doing a show

732
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,240
Speaker 1: without me having to host the whole thing. Also because

733
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,919
Speaker 1: I know I am extremely pressed right now for time,

734
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 1: and not even in a bragging way and not in

735
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: a whining way. It's just I keep everything on a schedule,

736
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 1: and that second show was really biting me in the butt.

737
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 2: But I wanted to set them up for success.

738
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: And give them an avenue to get better at what

739
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 1: they're doing, and also for people to hear the first

740
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes and not turn it off because it wasn't

741
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: me hosting it. So there are times where I do

742
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: have to reprioritize. I've mentioned before that has offered a

743
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: pretty big book deal recently, and I just did not

744
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 1: take it because I did not feel that I had

745
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: it in me to create something that I felt passionate

746
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 1: about and that I could do a good job with.

747
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: So if I do decide to write another book, I'll

748
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 1: have to remove something at this point because all my

749
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: hours are eaten up and I don't want to do

750
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 1: bad work.

751
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 2: I'd rather do no work than bad work.

752
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: So it's never comfortable, though, Because your question was, how

753
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 1: do you comfortably step back It's never comfortable because I

754
00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 1: also feel like I'm letting people down when I do

755
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: step back from certain things. Meaning if I just pulled

756
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 1: off of a full episode of twenty five whistles, let's

757
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,280
Speaker 1: say we just didn't do that episode, Well, that's money

758
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: that the guys aren't getting paid. So if I go, hey,

759
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: we're just doing Want a week, that's fifty percent of

760
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: what we're not doing. We're not getting paid for anymore

761
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,800
Speaker 1: because there's no commercial, so there's no pay for anybody.

762
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: So those are difficult decisions whenever what I'm doing and

763
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 1: not doing happens to affect other.

764
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 3: People, Hank tight the Bobby Cast will be right back,

765
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 3: and we're back on the Bobby Cast.

766
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: I got two more here. I love these, definitely there

767
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: to the end. This is from Cindy Trout sixty six

768
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: four to one. What's Eddie's title or job? I didn't

769
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: hear you mentioned him in the producer segment you did

770
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: on a past episode. Would also be interested to know

771
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 1: how you guys met in how long? I guess we

772
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: did that part already so I can tell you. Eddie's

773
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: job is he is had a video so it's actually

774
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: quite a skill. He has a switcher in his hand

775
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: because he's also a co host on the show, and

776
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: that just kind of happened organically because he was always

777
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 1: there with a microphone. But Amy had to leave for

778
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,839
Speaker 1: a month here, a couple months there because her dad died,

779
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 1: her mom was sick, had some personal things. And the

780
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:34,479
Speaker 1: number one rule of our show is if you ain't

781
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 1: good for you, you ain't gonna be good for me.

782
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,879
Speaker 2: So you go take care of yourself. So there will be.

783
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 1: Times where I would say, Amy, you just got to

784
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: go away for a couple months, and you're good.

785
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 2: I promise it, you're good.

786
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: You'll come back and you just fall back into your

787
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 1: spot and we just keep rolling. And so I could

788
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: trust Eddie when talking to really just set me up

789
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: and be funny with me, because he has a very

790
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: quick wit.

791
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 2: Eddie's I'm not going to be a guy that is

792
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 2: so outrageous.

793
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: He makes you laugh, but I don't think there's anybody

794
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,800
Speaker 1: on that show that's funnier than Eddie.

795
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 2: But he's not looking for the attention. So he made

796
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:10,320
Speaker 2: me better.

797
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: And that's why we're in a comedy group together too, though, honestly,

798
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 1: because he's that funny and also our styles together allow

799
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: me to be funnier. So, but his job is he's

800
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: head video producer, runs all the cameras in the studio,

801
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 1: and as we're talking and everybody's talking, he's pushing little

802
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: buttons to go to every single camera while he's also

803
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: talking as well.

804
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 2: So final one from a Carter eighty one thirty one.

805
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: Can you explain the evolution of playing live music on

806
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 1: the podcast or any music at all? Some of my

807
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: favorite performances were when used to be allowed to air

808
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: live music or any music at all. I miss those

809
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: days and don't understand why and what happened for it

810
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: to change. Thank you love all your content. So a

811
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 1: few years ago we were told you can't put anything

812
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: on the podcast that would possibly be on demand for

813
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 1: the artists that would cost them money for being on

814
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: your podcast. That terrible way to say that. But we

815
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 1: would play games with music, name that tune games. We

816
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: play a bunch of music game. I love music, so

817
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:18,319
Speaker 1: we play a lot of music games. We had to

818
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: pull all those from the podcast because if we played

819
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: any part of any song, anybody could go to that

820
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 1: song and listen to it for free when to hear

821
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: it anywhere else?

822
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 2: They had to pay for it.

823
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 1: We were giving them a free avenue to hear that

824
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 1: artist's music, which it's not cool. It's not cool to

825
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: give everybody something free that you have to pay for

826
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 1: it to get from the artist.

827
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,280
Speaker 2: The artist is creating it. So same thing with live music.

828
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 1: So we had to cut all live music, any licensed

829
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 1: anything music wise, we have to cut. So if you

830
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: have to find a Weezer the Sweater song, let's say

831
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: they played it on our show and you really wanted

832
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: to hear it, well, you either have to have a

833
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 1: streaming service or buy it or go to YouTube to

834
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: listen to it. And that's either you paying money or

835
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: you get time and like watching a commercial on YouTube

836
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 1: to hear that song, or you can just go to

837
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:05,320
Speaker 1: our podcast and get it for free.

838
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 2: Just you can't do that.

839
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: We were giving people for free what they had to

840
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 1: pay for everywhere else, and that wasn't fair to the artist.

841
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 1: Now that was a it's very difficult for us because

842
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 1: we had to change how we did everything. But yeah,

843
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 1: we can't put any music on the podcast anymore. So

844
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 1: we can put it on YouTube, and we do. If

845
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 1: someone performs in studio, that's where it goes. YouTube because

846
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: they have a different licensing agreement. And also if we

847
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: put it on our YouTube channel, the artist gets to

848
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 1: monetize that music for themselves on our page. So ashtonmy

849
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 1: Bride comes on and she plays the song, We're not

850
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 1: going to get the money for her playing that song

851
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: on our YouTube. She's going to get to monetize that

852
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: on our page. We might get followers from it. People

853
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: that are subscribers might be fulfilled by watching that on

854
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,799
Speaker 1: our Bobby Bone Show YouTube page, but we can't put

855
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: anything up that you'd have to pay for to get

856
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: in another way, could have explained that terribly. Might have

857
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 1: done a better job if I had have practiced ahead

858
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,520
Speaker 1: of time, but I don't practice ahead of time. So

859
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: that's what's up. Thank you guys for listening, Thank you

860
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,280
Speaker 1: for watching. I encourage everybody to do two things. One

861
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,759

862
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: and two stay weedy. Okay, until next time, everybody.
