1 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: Michael darry Show is on the air. Before I ask 3 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: for moone to play the song, we will be cross 4 00:00:54,240 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: fading too, Oh across fading. Yeah, I put the wrong 5 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: emphasis on. I put the emphasis on the wrong Salabel. 6 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: I want you to stop for a moment, because on 7 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: this day in nineteen seventy three, the debut album of 8 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: the greatest band of all time, not just American, not 9 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: just English speaking, not just this millennium, Leonard Skinner released 10 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: their album pronounced Leonard Skinner. They're the best band. Yeah, 11 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: it's not funny. You already know who I see. You 12 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: took me off the track and got me upset. So 13 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: back to my point. Today. In nineteen seventy three was 14 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: the release of that album. It had Give Me Three Steps, 15 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: It had Simple Man, it had hold On I Feel 16 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: like William Wallace and Braveheart Hold Hold. So this album 17 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: has two, undisputably two of the greatest ten songs in 18 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: all of American music history, no doubt about it, Simple Man, 19 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: Free Bird. If you send me an email disagreeing and 20 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: you think that's clever, you're embarrassing yourself. Don't do that. 21 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: It's like I think to myself, forgive him father, for 22 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: he knows not what he does, you know, and they're 23 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: so proud to see me. I like Paul McCartney. Yeah, 24 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: well he likes skannered anyway. So when I say free Bird, 25 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: I know what you think. You think long guitar riff 26 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: at the end of the song, and most people do. 27 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: Most people's gains rips that guitar, Rossington letter, Artemis pile. 28 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: You got vocals by Ronnie I mean it is, you 29 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: got Cassie singing background. Yeah, all of that is true, 30 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: Every bit of that is true. However, the part of 31 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: that song that does not get it to do that 32 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: I think makes the song special is not the ending. 33 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: It's not this incredible maestro performance exhibition display demonstration on 34 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: the getfiddle. It is the opening piano. And it's so 35 00:03:53,000 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: subtle and so smooth that you forget the most requested 36 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: rock song in all of rock history at a concert 37 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: because of the badass, long haired gemming out guitar is 38 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 1: actually a very smooth piano opening instead of a dusty 39 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: hill bass line. You've got the keyboard setting the tongue 40 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: and I'll bet if you're honest you never even notice 41 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: that because you're waiting for the build up of the 42 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: very lengthy guitar solo at the end. So on this 43 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: the day we celebrate n eighteen seventy three, the release 44 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: of Pronounced Lynyrd Skynyrd, I want you to listen anew 45 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: to the opening piano. H really, I think that's funny. 46 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: That's funny. That's funny. Ha ha, that's your upper decker. Okay, 47 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: all right, okay stop. The rest of the song goes downhill. 48 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: I believe that. I believe the greatness of that song 49 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: is before Ronnie's vocals, before the improvised guitar riff, because 50 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: that's the era, right, You've got Queen doing Bohemian Rhapsody, 51 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: You've got a Zeppelin, you got you got these long, 52 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: you got these long. Hey, Jude's coming out like that's 53 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: the thing, and FM radio was embracing the longer songs. 54 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: I think the greatest part of that song is the 55 00:06:12,279 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: first twenty seconds. Okay, do that again. There's what's incredible 56 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: is what has already all happened by the time Ronnie 57 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: starts singing. You started with this bassline effect by the piano. 58 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: I wish I understood music theory. I could use proper chrominology, 59 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: but you get my point. You get that effect which 60 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: begins to set the mood, and you at first it 61 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: stuns you, and then you go, oh god, that's free 62 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: bird coming right. But that that sets the tone. We're 63 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: about to get serious, We're about to go And it's 64 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: also a very slow, not ominous, but heavy. This is 65 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: this is gonna be heavy. And then and then you 66 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: build into the guitars coming in one by one, the layers. 67 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: By the time you get to Ronnie, I mean you 68 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: you've had a whole song already. Paris Show. I want 69 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: my intention to do music deconstruction today, and I'm certainly 70 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: no expert. I'm just a fan. I just appreciate art 71 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: in all its forms, in how we communicate, how we 72 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: express ourselves. I think the songwriter is the modern day poet, 73 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: the real poet Marlowe, Shakespeare and Baron, and the people 74 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: John Dunn, the people who moved us with words that 75 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: allowed us to say things that we felt in a 76 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: way that maybe we could have never constructed. So I'm 77 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: just a fan. You don't have to tell me you 78 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: know more about this or that band. You won't know 79 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: more than Skinner. It about anybody in the world Ramon, 80 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: but any other band in mine. So when I started 81 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: in radio, Pat Gray was on in the morning, followed 82 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 1: by from nine to eleven Glenn Beck, and first they 83 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: took Glenn back off and put me in his spot, 84 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: And less than thirty days later Beck got the big 85 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: gig on CNN that really launched him to the next level. 86 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 1: He was nationally syndicated, but it wasn't as big as 87 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 1: Beck would become, and Glenn was his Houston lead in, 88 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: and then Beck had the syndicated show from nine to eleven. 89 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: They took Beck off and put me on, and the 90 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: vice president of programming thought it would be real cute. 91 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: Eddie would never have done this. This was another person. 92 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: He thought it would be real cute to have me 93 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: go in just after they announced it they're taking back 94 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: off the air and sit down with Pat, and Pat 95 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: would interview me about taking this position, and that was 96 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: real funny to him. But it wasn't funny. It was 97 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: disrespectful to Pat because that Pat is the reason Glenn 98 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: is a Mormon. Pat evangelized witnessed to Glenn when Glenn 99 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: was suicidal. I'm not telling you anything that they don't 100 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: talk about. Glynn was not going to survive, and Pat 101 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: sat by his side and offered testimony and teaching and coaching, 102 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: and Glenn became a Mormon out of the deal. That's 103 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 1: how close they are and always have been, and as 104 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, still are. Pat's part of Glenn's network now. 105 00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: And it came back around. So Beck, I replaced back. Yeah, 106 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: I replaced back, and then our show starts picking up 107 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: steam and we're getting amazing plaudits we never expected, and 108 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: they take Pat off and put me in his place. Well, 109 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: that's weird because I would listen to Pat as I 110 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: was driving in every morning, and I never cared for 111 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: the band Bread. I didn't dislike him, but it didn't 112 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: matter to me. So I really grew to appreciate Bread, 113 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: which happens to be a Mormon band, because of Pat's 114 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: love of it, as well as the Bluebelt ice Cream song. 115 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: And so I began listening to Bread more and what 116 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: I thought was cheesy, watered down like Sister Wife kind 117 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: of music became much deeper. Bread had a huge hit 118 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: with a song baby I'm Gonna Want You. It's a 119 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: love song. Maybe I'm Gonna want you. Baby, I'm gonna 120 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: need you. You're the only one I care enough to 121 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: hurt about. Maybe I'm crazy, Maybe I just can't live 122 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: without You're loving an affection, give me directed. It's a 123 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: love song, right, So when you come back to the 124 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: song we just played, it's the next in the line. 125 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: Bred's a hit machine. So you just assume this is 126 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: another love song, and it is a love song. But 127 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: David Gates, the lead singer, his father had died in 128 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: sixty three. Before his dad died, he sent his mother 129 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: an orchid, and he said he could barely afford this orchid. 130 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: But his father called and said, you rocked your mom's 131 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: world sending her this flower. This is the most powerful 132 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: thing in the world. You can have everything she owns 133 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: because you did this, this thing, this gesture. So his 134 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: dad dies in sixty three and never gets to see 135 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: how successful he becomes, And in seventy two he writes, 136 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 1: how often does this happen? He writes a love song 137 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: to his father, who does that? Right? He writes a 138 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: song about if he could just see his father one 139 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: more time? Oh, man, if I could just see him 140 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: one more time. But he couches it in a way 141 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: that sounds like a love song, so that it'll become 142 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: popular and people will listen to it and people will 143 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: buy it. It's a song to his dad. If this 144 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: song doesn't just blow your mind, I don't know what 145 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: will you shall live from her? Kept me wong, kept 146 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: me walm. You gave my life to me, Set me free, 147 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: set me free fast years I ever been through, all 148 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: the years, I haven't debated.

Thank you for the recommendation. 171 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: I am often My mother used to say, say, how 172 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: do you have the most amazing people around you? You 173 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 1: are so lucky. You're the most incredible people around you, 174 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: your wife, your colleagues. Because I seek out the best 175 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: people and I do not waste a moment on anyone 176 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: who is not incredible. You don't have to be the 177 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: most beautiful. You don't have to run the fastest. You 178 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: don't have to be the physically strongest. You don't have 179 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: to score, you don't have to be a MENSA member. 180 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: In fact, I prefer you not what Ramone almost figured 181 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 1: that out. People are not fungible, they're not robots. They're 182 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: not plug and play. One number two pencil goes out, 183 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: grab another one. They're exactly the same. Can't tell a 184 00:17:54,080 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: difference people. People are not exactly the same. One guy 185 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: comes into work. Let's say he's working the cash register 186 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: at the restaurant. He goes and takes a poop every 187 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: ten minutes. Do you ever go to a restaurant and 188 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: they got one head and it's locked, and you got 189 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: a prarie dog and you're sitting there and you're like, 190 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: so you do that passive aggressive thing. You get real quiet, 191 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: like you left, and now you pretend you're another person 192 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: and you go to the door to open it and 193 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: jiggle it because you know that makes people uncomfortable, and 194 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: you jiggle it. I'm in here, and you oh sorry, 195 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: and then you wait about thirty seconds, and then you 196 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: do the loud walk. You come up and you kind 197 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 1: of bump into the door like it's a whole different 198 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: person and I'm in here.

That employee 203 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: hides and you get to hide in the toilet because 204 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: nobody wants to call you out for it.

I had 209 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: a bar and restaurant owner tell me a little while back. 210 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: He said, I used to love to go to your 211 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: place RCC because your staff were so attentive. They were 212 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: always smiling, they were always there, they anticipated your needs. 213 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: And ma'am, my employees, I can't keep them off the phone. 214 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 1: I mean I can't keep them off their their cell phones, 215 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: text messaging. And it isn't that the people I had 216 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: were great and your people are sorry. It is you 217 00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: have to set expectations with people very clearly. Amazing to 218 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: me how many people don't realize that. I have watched 219 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: so many people who are always hiring and firing people, 220 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: and every time they have a new employee in some 221 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: short order, they will say, oh, old Susie, she's she's 222 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: not working out, she's not any good at all. What's 223 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: wrong with her? She did she did, she does this, 224 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: She shows up late, she does it to Okay, does 225 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: she know what time she's supposed to? Arrie? She ought 226 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: to how should she ort to? I mean, people know, No, 227 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: they don't know. That's just it. I am an over communicator. 228 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: I'm not the greatest boss manager leader in the history 229 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: of mankind. I know that. But what I'm gonna do 230 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: is study people who are because what I'm trying to 231 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: do is build a team with purpose in life to 232 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: perform a mission and enjoy the process as we're going. 233 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: And in order to do that, you don't just fill 234 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: out that forum show up here tomorrow. Here's your keys, 235 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: and here's the shirt, and that's the time clock. And 236 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: you cannot assume that someone knows anything. My kids will 237 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: always say, Dad, we know, we know. No, let me 238 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: explain that we already know. Why does it bother you 239 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 1: so much if I tell you something that you already know? 240 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 1: Because there may be something in the ten step process 241 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: I'm about to give you that you know already. And invariably, 242 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: right around about seven, they'll go, oh, oh, you have 243 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: to park on the side and go to the side door. 244 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: Yes you do, Oh that I didn't realize that. Okay, okay, yes, 245 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: don't leave anything unset. Set expectations very clearly and constantly 246 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: reinforce them. That's what the military does. It's what coaches do. 247 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: Can you imagine you play for Nick Saban and you're 248 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: a sophomore and you win the championship and there you are, 249 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: You're pouring the bucket of gatorade on him. He's hugging 250 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 1: you and everybody's happy, and you know it's a matter 251 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: of days until he's chewing your ass again. And he 252 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: has talked about that process. I can't celebrate with my 253 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: team the way I would like to when we win 254 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: a championship because I know I got to chew their 255 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: ass very soon. And so there, you've ascended the mountain, 256 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 1: You've won the championship. Now you're back. What a players 257 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: want to do show up fat and out of shape, gloat, brag, swagger. 258 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: But what got you that championship is busting your tail 259 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 1: with humility. I don't know how we got on that subject. 260 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: Oh I know, I do know. But the point of 261 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 1: that is, just like I said earlier, David Crook was 262 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: the worst Litle League baseball coach. I ever saw, an 263 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 1: absolute monster of a man, and a lot of people 264 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: know that and never wanted to confront him because they 265 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 1: wanted their kids to be on All Stars. Absolute monster 266 00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: of a human being, turned out to be a monster 267 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: of a husband as well, and anyway, just just a 268 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: bad human being David Krook. But then I had coaches. 269 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: My dad coached me as well, But I had coaches 270 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: in life. I still have coaches in life. Eddie Martinez 271 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: a coach, even though he's a friend, even though he's 272 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: my boss in many ways, and he knows how to 273 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: handle me without me flying off the handle. He'll say, hey, 274 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: you know you need to do this, Hey, you really 275 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: need to call that guy back, he got his feelings hurt, 276 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: or you really need to do this. And he does 277 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: it in a way like my mother would do, like 278 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: my wife does, like my kids do for that matter, 279 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 1: to know how to manage me, to know how to 280 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: get me to do what they want without me overruling them. 281 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: Trump does that with the media. Trump gets the media 282 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: to cover him in a way that they don't. They 283 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: don't want to cover him, but he gets them to 284 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: cover him. He gets them to tell you what he's doing. 285 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: That's how you know you don't Trump doesn't call you 286 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: every morning. You know what Trump is up to because 287 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: the very media that hates him tells you, and he 288 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: forces them to tell you. So the point is, human 289 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 1: beings are everything in a company. I don't care what 290 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: the company is even AI. Human beings are everything. Human 291 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: beings are everything in your home. Human beings are everything 292 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: in your life. That's all. We arrive as human beings, 293 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: we die as human beings, and in between a bunch 294 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: of jump plastic and jump invest in the people around 295 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: in all. Also, when I'm gone, boy, this is just 296 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: gets better and better and better. Pinch myself. President Trump 297 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: as the head of the Kennedy Center, just announcing that 298 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: George Strait will be honored at the Kennedy Center I 299 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: as civilian honor you can receive. And I think about it. 300 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: I wasn't there seeing photos. I think about George Straight 301 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: being chosen by the Houston Livestock Showing rodeo to cover 302 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: a missed date. Do you remember who missed the date? 303 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: Who very good to cover for a missed date, and 304 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: how that really launched him? Obviously, I think that was 305 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: the biggest effect on a person's career, what MTV did 306 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: for zz Top, the Houston Livestock Showing rodeo did for 307 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: George Strait. And I think about this little bitty fellow, 308 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: little skinny, fair faced, fresh faced killboy in his boots 309 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: and his jeans creased down the middle, and he's reaching 310 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: out there and shaking people's hands and he's happy to 311 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: be here. And that's George Strait, and now he's going 312 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: to be honored. Have you ever been to the Kennedy Center. Nothing. 313 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: I went up because the kids were interning in Congress 314 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 1: this summer and spent some time, and we went back 315 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: to things that I had worked at a law firm 316 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: there and I hadn't but I hadn't spent any real 317 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: time there in a while, so I had to make 318 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: multiple trips to DC, and so sometimes this summer I 319 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: was doing my show from my hotel room. And it's 320 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: good that you didn't notice. It means our equipment is good. 321 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: And don't try to say you notice now that I 322 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: told you. Anyway, we went to a show at the 323 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: Kennedy Center, and I mean, it's it's kind of a 324 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: tired whole building, to be honest with you.
