We'll talk more in detail about that, but 46 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: I want to ask you. Can you if I was 47 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: a space alien and didn't know who the War Entreaty 48 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: is and it never heard you, how would you describe 49 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: the war entreaty to me the space alien? 50 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I have very little common sense. But Tony, 51 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 5: you won't go first, do you want to take it? 52 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: I would, I would tell the space and we have 53 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: a lot in common. I mean, you know, it's kind 54 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 2: of hard to you know, you've heard it before, you 55 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 2: probably haven't seen it before. But we are a mixture, 56 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 2: if the alien like music of all the things that 57 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 2: it would like about music, every genre of music we love, 58 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 2: and somehow musically are able to tell the story with 59 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: all those sounds without it being complicated or I believe, 60 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: compromising what each genre means. 61 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the Warren Treaty represents some folks, 62 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: some Americana, some country, some soul. I was trying to 63 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: describe you guys to someone that I was turning them 64 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: onto you, and I said, imagine the Staples singers in 65 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, how would you guys feel about that? 66 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 5: Honored? Completely honored, Michael. 67 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: I want to talk about your service to your country. 68 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: And there's a charity that is local and Boston, but 69 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: it's national called home Base. It's a venture with the 70 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: mass General and the Boston Red Sox and they do 71 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: important work obviously with the veterans community. But first of all, 72 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: if someone is a veteran in listening and struggling, would 73 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: you talk to them about how important it is to 74 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 1: seek out places such as home Base for help. 75 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, veterans community is a very unique community and it's 76 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 5: very hard to find organizations you can trust that would 77 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 5: understand what a veteran is going through. So anytime we 78 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 5: hear of organizations like home Base who just get it, 79 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 5: I like to go ahead and tell that veteran to 80 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 5: go on and trust them, let them in. But for 81 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,799 Speaker 5: all the veterans out there there listening, it's very important 82 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 5: to remember that you have battle buddies. You aren't the 83 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 5: only veteran. You aren't the first veteran. You want to 84 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 5: be the last. There are veterans out there who have 85 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 5: been through what you've been through. They've rued in your 86 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 5: combat boots. They know what it is to take off 87 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 5: and put on that uniform, and they know what you feel. 88 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 5: So reach out to your buddies so that you could 89 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 5: feel a sense of been longing again. 90 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: And Tanya, as someone who has lived with the love 91 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: of your life struggling at certain points, talk about how 92 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: you had that you know, profound help and influence there 93 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: to have your love. You know, see help when he 94 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: needed it. 95 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 2: I think you know what I would say to the 96 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 2: person that is the caretaker is to be compassionate, you know, 97 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: really lead with empathy, and you may not be able 98 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 2: to completely understand what they're going through, but I think 99 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: when you lead with compassion and and you're listening and 100 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: not trying to respond or make it better, it's just 101 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: a safe place for your loved one to be able 102 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: to express themselves and let out those feelings. And that's 103 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: where I was stars just telling them just be a 104 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: safe place to listen. 105 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: I produced this other podcast that's hosted by Linn Hoffman. 106 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: It's called Music Saved Me.

I saw you, guys. I was 146 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 1: mentioning this before we started. I saw you bring down 147 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: the house at the rhyme and a couple of years 148 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: ago it was at the UMG Country Radio Sinar luncheon. 149 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: You just knocked everybody out. That's when I said, I 150 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: have to get these guys on the podcast and tell 151 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: me though, describe to us, both of you, what's it like, 152 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: Because you're doing this all the time, it's a regular occurrence. 153 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: What's it like bringing a house down? What's that feeling like? 154 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 5: M I don't. 155 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 2: I mean, every time it happens, it just takes my 156 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 2: breath away because you just don't know that it's going 157 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 2: to happen. You know, people are just sitting there, they're watching, 158 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: and you don't know what that final response is going 159 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 2: to be. And so when it happens, it really sweeps 160 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 2: you off your feet and it's a reminder that it's 161 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 2: so much bigger than you. Every single time it happens, 162 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: you're like, there's something, there's a god, there's a force 163 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: that's magically connecting all these hearts at the same time 164 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 2: from what's coming out of your mouth, and they're erupting 165 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 2: and they are feeling it all at the same time, 166 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 2: you know. So it's a spiritual experience. I have to 167 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 2: that's my only way to describe it. 168 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, buzz, I pray that we never become jaded. I 169 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 5: pray that it's an earnest prayer. Minds that we never 170 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 5: take for granted the opportunity to touch an audience, whether 171 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 5: there be audience of fans or an audience of professionals 172 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 5: such as yourself who has heard it all and seen 173 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 5: it all.

I'm so happy, Buzz that you acknowledged 192 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 5: carried Away. It's our journey musically, definitely. I think that 193 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 5: we'll be start off with our love for country music. 194 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 5: You can hear the opening of the song like Hank 195 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 5: William's band just stepped on the scene and has that 196 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 5: good old country walks, and you're walking with me and 197 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 5: be careful what you're asking me.
