8
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,600

00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: here's what I love okay. And we have a very

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: close futual friend, one of my best friends on the

23
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: planet and these yours as well. And I called him,

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: I said, hey, man, I got your dude coming on.

25
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: What could you tell me? And that guy's Guy Fieri.

26
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: And I have a whole chapter in my book, I'm Breakable.

27
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: I have a book called him Breakable. How I turned

28
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: my depression anxiety into motivation. You can too, And I

29
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: have a whole chapter on loyalty right let loyalties are

30
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: dying art. And when I said to guys, said hey,

31
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: Brett Michael's coming on, he said one of us loyal

32
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: Just this guy just drove overnight to get to my

33
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: birthday party, Like you gotta ask about But when I

34
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: heard that the loyalty part, I was like, man, it

35
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: lit me up. Well, first of all, thank you, and guy,

36
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: I just literally a couple of days ago in Florida.

37
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: We travel around a bit. He was on stage with

38
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: me during the Stadium tour, but then we were down

39
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: in Florida together. We owned properties down there, and I

40
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: just want to say, one of the best people and

41
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: the story he's talking about this is no lie. So

42
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: he calls up and he's like me. He's spontaneous. Sometimes

43
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: we're a little too spontaneous. And he said, I'm doing

44
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: this thing, and I said, guy, come hook or crook,

45
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 1: I will make it out to your ranch. There's no like,

46
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 1: there's no cell service out where he was at. And

47
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: this is a much longer story. I'll make it sure.

48
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: I am a I have tattooed on my back, on

49
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: my back shoulder, it says life, love, loyalty. I'm not

50
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: kidding you. It means the world to me. And I

51
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 1: grew up in a small town Pennsylvania and it's still

52
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: to this day. Best friends with with all my friends

53
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: I grew up with, and guys, that's what we hit

54
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: it off immediately. We've been friends a while. What a

55
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: great guy. And also you know we're talking another friend

56
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: of ours, the Bruce Up and Bruce is amazing and

57
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: again obviously we do a lot of business together. But

58
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: it goes beyond that. For me, it's about passion and friendship.

59
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: It's about, you know, loving the people you're around and

60
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: and sometimes having to painfully let go with some of

61
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: those that just are pulling you in the wrong direction. Yeah, no,

62
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: that's you make a great point there, because a lot

63
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: of times. And I see this around NFL players all

64
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: the time, like they'll make it and then somebody will

65
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: say them, man, you're changing Money's change you, And yeah,

66
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: money does change you. Like Diddy's white party is way

67
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: better than wearing white and black stripes, you know, So

68
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: it's like it does change you. And I tell these guys,

69
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: if they're not empowering you over there, just because they

70
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: were with you for the first twenty one years doesn't

71
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: give people the right to be with you for the

72
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: next sixty or seventy one years if they're not empowering

73
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: you and lifting you up. But loyalty to me is

74
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: that that our loyalty is doing things for others without

75
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: them even asking. Like I'm gonna always think, man, like

76
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: if something comes to my mind, Hey, this is gonna

77
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: help my friend Brett Michael, this is gonna help guy,

78
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: this is gonna help them, or you know, just constantly

79
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: if I don't hear from them for a while, checking

80
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: in because I don't know what they're going through, so

81
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: checking in on them, making sure they're doing okay. And

82
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: I think it's in today's day and age, too many

83
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: people kind of forget really the art of loyalty one

84
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: million percent, and I want to add to that too.

85
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: It's sometimes like yourself myself, it's born into the d

86
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: n A where when you surround yourself you find great

87
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 1: people in your life. What what I think has helped

88
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: me as a lead singer straight to the point, is

89
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: the fact that I love seeing people have a great time.

90
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: I'm one of those guys who's gonna call you down

91
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: the road from this not long and say, hey, did

92
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 1: you ever think of this or throw that? Not for

93
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: business but for friendship. I'll be like, listen, we're doing

94
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: this thing with this help, with that help. And that's

95
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: one of the reasons I say, you know, you talk

96
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: about unbreakable, and I wrote a song with my daughter

97
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: are called unbroken, right, And it's about this unbroken fighting

98
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: spirit that we have to find because we've got to

99
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: go through the tough times in order to find that.

100
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: It's easy to have. Like I said about songwriting, it's

101
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: really hard to write a party song. It is because

102
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: you're in the middle of party. Who feels like sitting

103
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: down and working on something, But it is when it

104
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: breaks your heart true story, No one Everyone always says,

105
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: oh when you wrote nothing but a good Time. That

106
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 1: that must have been so easy to write, I said,

107
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,799
Speaker 1: oddly enough, if you listen to nothing but a good Time,

108
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: it is about me working as a fry cook and

109
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: being repeatedly told, repeatedly told, I will never make it

110
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: out of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. You can play in every band

111
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: you want, there's no fighting chance you're gonna write original material.

112
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: And here's where I was different, inherent by my d

113
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: n A from my mom and dad. I've decided as

114
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: a child when I got diabetes, right up to the

115
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: time I was sixteen working as a fry cook and

116
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: a bus boy, that I was going to be victorious

117
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 1: over being a victim. So every time I was put down,

118
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: don't let me let me say this correctly, it hurts.

119
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: Don't ever, It's not like all that doesn't hurt every

120
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: time you get told that. I just used it as

121
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: another brick to make me step higher, to fight harder.

122
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: And I think that's what's helped me in my entire life.

123
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: I looked at diabetes sometimes as a blessing more than

124
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: a curse, because it kept me from falling into the

125
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 1: complete over the edge at every single party. Because you

126
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: can do that it's easy to do that. Instead, I

127
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: like seeing people having a great time at my party.

128
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: I want you to have a grate when you come

129
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: to my house. I walk out how you do when

130
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: meet in the driveway, come in, and I think, me

131
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 1: and you now possess a lot of that same spirit.

132
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 1: I always say, like, I made a decision when I

133
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: got my break to cover the giants for a whopping

134
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: nine thousand, four hundred fifty bucks a year. I made

135
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: a decision that was about four hundred quadruple times what

136
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: we made on my first royalty, chap dollar royalty. But

137
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: that royalty check for you, right was like your royalty

138
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: check probably still validated you, Like, Hey, I said I'd

139
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: be the last motherfucker standing and I got it and

140
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: I made it right. It's not the dollars, it's that

141
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: we did it. We both said we're gonna be the

142
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: last motherfucker standing here. We're gonna do it our way,

143
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: and it may not pay off. Now, mine took eleven

144
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: years to pay off, right years. I don't know how

145
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: long it took to pay off to to really get it,

146
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: But it was more of that validation of all right,

147
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: we said we're gonna do it in a certain way.

148
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: We're not gonna quit and we're gonna be rejected more

149
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: than anybody in the planet. But that fucking you got

150
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: that check. It validated you. One billion percent, not a

151
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: million percent, a billion percent. It validated it. And I

152
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: will never forget this. I grew up again, very thankful

153
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: for where I grew up. But what I earned is

154
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: it's I. The luckier I get is always comes with

155
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: the harder I worked. And when I say that, I

156
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: know I said that backwards, but it's the truth. The

157
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: luckier I got came with the hard work I put

158
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 1: in and when I realized that my gambling skills suck. Um.

159
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: I didn't come for money, and I probably was never

160
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: gonna win the I'm not saying I won't. I wasn't

161
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: gonna len the lottery. I just went out there and

162
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: I had a really good learning curve, so I would

163
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: listen to great people, uh ignore the ones that I felt.

164
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: You know your gut, I'm in pathic I think you

165
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: may be the same. You gut tells you when you're

166
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: around somebody it doesn't feel right, and it also tells

167
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: you when it feels really right. And that was a

168
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: blessing for me, and then I went out literally loaded

169
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: up my windowless chevett, an old ambulance ban in a

170
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: green pickup truck, drove it out with a bunch of

171
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 1: my friends. We drove l a and live behind a

172
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: dry cleaner for three years and sleeping bags in the floor.

173
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: But there was a reason you're ready for the reason

174
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: we were able to rehearse there it cost us nothing.

175
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: We could live, you know, we were able to survive.

176
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: And the biggest blessing that ever happened was being turned

177
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: down by every label, probably three times over, no no,

178
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 1: no bullshit, three times over with songs like every Rose,

179
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: songs like talk Dirty to Me, ones that became number

180
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 1: one hits. They were like, we don't hear the word

181
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: you're ready, the buzzword, We don't hear the nucleus of

182
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: a hit. I go, I don't know what the hell

183
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: you're talking about. Seems it seems like it's a good

184
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: song to me. But as I said that, it also

185
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: the best thing. And Bruce will talk about this all

186
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: the time. We retained all of our publishing and that

187
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: became a huge It was it somehow somewhere someone was watching,

188
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: you know, the man was watching out for me or

189
00:09:54,960 --> 00:10:00,839
Speaker 1: the woman, the person was somebody, My angel was watching God.

190
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: Thank you. God was watching out for me ex absolutely,

191
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: and it just felt, even in the course of me

192
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: making some less than reputable decisions, somehow again God was

193
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: watching out for me and helped me mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically,

194
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: stay in the game, give me the moment when so

195
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: for me, it took me again eleven years. I was

196
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: making nine thousand, four hundred and fifty bucks a year

197
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: for those eleven years, and I finally got a call

198
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: from my agent saying, okay, you can you can excel.

199
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: You finally got a full time job after being rejected

200
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: for eleven straight years, over and over and over and

201
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: over and over. And it's fucking brutal to be told

202
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: you're not good enough for eleven years. And you know

203
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: that's you know, the overnight success. It's you know, it's

204
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: an eleven years folks, it's not overnight. But when I

205
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 1: got that call, I didn't even ask how much it

206
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: was for is to to be on CBS, to do

207
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: the NFL. To on CBS, you just got the NFL

208
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: contract back. He said, You're gonna be the NFL insider,

209
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: the NFL to on CBS. I said, I'll take it,

210
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: and he said, don't you want to know how much

211
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: it's for? And I said, I don't give a fuck.

212
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: It validated me that when I said I'd be the

213
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: last dude standing and I was gonna do it different

214
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: than every other reporter that's that's doing it. It validated me.

215
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: And that was my moment. Give me the moment for

216
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,199
Speaker 1: you when you got the call that your first song, Okay,

217
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: you got it, it's gonna be a hit. You got it,

218
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: you you you kind of you made it. If you will,

219
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 1: you know you got over that hump. Give me that

220
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: moment when you realize that absolutely, And before I do that,

221
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: as this part of me, I need you to know,

222
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: first of all, congratulations, as I know you and want you,

223
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: and I can feel you, can feel your energy, and

224
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: I beg you for whatever whatever hits you had to take,

225
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: for however many put downs, however many you know, No,

226
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: you're not the right one. We're looking for somebody else.

227
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: Whatever happened, And I got chills up and down my

228
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: arm as I'm saying this, I got the chill bumps.

229
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 1: Whatever happened carves you into the credible human that you become,

230
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: that energy level you have, don't lose that the world

231
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: the world needs because we all get knocked down. We

232
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: all have those breaking moments, and it's those of us

233
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: that are warriors that get back up, fight through it

234
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: and say I don't give a ship. I am going

235
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: to fight through this and I'm gonna make it so

236
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: that's an inspiration to a lot of people. And I say,

237
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: this too, is the son of a veteran, and my

238
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 1: relatives all served, all of including my sisters that offered

239
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: Air Force Base and some Purple Hearts, some Kia in action.

240
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: I won't go into that. We decided as a family

241
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: to push forward and that unbreakable moment for me, I

242
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: will never forget this. There was crossroads in my life.

243
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: Can I give you really quick ones? All right? So

244
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: here it comes. My first one started so long story short,

245
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: I'm doing this any documentary called Unbroken, right, it's the

246
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: origins of Brett Michaels. I take him to the exact

247
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: spot in Pennsylvania outside the radio shack Strip Mall parking

248
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: lot in the slushy snow of January, right where I

249
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: wasn't allowed to come in and buy a mic stay

250
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: because they thought I didn't have the money for it.

251
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: And I remember looking at my work boots in the snow,

252
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: cigarette butts, you know, the cigarette butts in the snow.

253
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: I'm looking down. This sounds crazy, And at that moment,

254
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: I said, I am driving this to California. I'm writing

255
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: original music. I'll sell everything I own, and I'm driving

256
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: across this country with or without anybody in this car,

257
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna make it. That was my I'm gonna

258
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: go write music and write original material. Right. I figured,

259
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: if I'm starving, I'm gonna drive someplace that may be

260
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: warm in the winter, right, so at least I have

261
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: some more. But my big moment came, I'm not making

262
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: this up. The the turning point for me. The real

263
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: turning point came when I took my record So understand

264
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: my signing day when when you know all these bands

265
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: are like, oh, there was Limos, and there's Jets, and

266
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: there's this and that. When you're an independent band like

267
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: Poison or like myself, independently owned and operated, Mine was

268
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: sitting on a warehouse floor in El Segundo, packing shrink

269
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: wrapping and packing my own records and cassette I'm not

270
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: making this up. Look what the cat dragged in? This

271
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: is as true as it gets. We laugh about it

272
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: to this day. The band, I go, we're we don't

273
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: even have a sandwich in here, Like we're sitting on

274
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: the floor. I go, this is not at all what

275
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: I pictured when I read my uh kiss brochure, you know,

276
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm like, where's the Jets, where's the big party?

277
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: Like um so el segundo, shrink wrapping records, packing cassettes

278
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: and boxes, sending them out as an independent band, right,

279
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: and that moment, and then driving from there, here it comes.

280
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: We have a chevette that's been broken into so many times.

281
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: We're lucky we still had a front windshield. We drive

282
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: it down in the band. We go into a place

283
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: called kN a C Radio. Right, it's a big rock

284
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: station and opened up. They're kind of down in the

285
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: Long Beach area. We hand them the record. They don't

286
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: interview us. There's no big interview. There's no They're like, okay, thanks.

287
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: They've got a bunch of other bands that are breaking big.

288
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: We hand them the record. They spin it and I'll

289
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: never forget hearing Look what the cat dragged in? Cry

290
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: tough and then talk dirty to me. Then all of

291
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: a sudden, all the other stations that it whatever happened,

292
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: fans related to it. It worked. We were great on

293
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: the club scene. We always threw a big like we

294
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: always put on a big show and big music. But

295
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: it didn't translate yet to a record deal. And I

296
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: will never forget that moment setting along the five and

297
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: the four oh five in that area and hearing them say, well,

298
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: here's a song. Brett Michaels brought this in with poison

299
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: and this this song right here is called look what

300
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: the Cat dragged in And don't leave if you don't

301
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: like it, because we've got two more we're gonna spin.

302
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: And that was a you have no idea, you know,

303
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: vindication you were talking about with your first check or

304
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: eating give a ship what they were giving you tearing

305
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: that on the radio. My head hit the steering wheel

306
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: and it wasn't tears like I don't want to get

307
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: choked up on your show, but no, please do man.

308
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: We're we're vulnerable. Man over here, Man, I'm vulnerable and

309
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: I my head hit the steering wheel and it really

310
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: it was a hell of a moment, man. That is beautiful. Man,

311
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: that is beautiful and I appreciate it like that moment.

312
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: I love it and Jerry Maguire not gonna make me cry,

313
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: j Hey, but but here. And this is one of

314
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: the things I'm trying to do with this podcast is

315
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: show dudes out there that it's manly to be vulnerable

316
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: and to cry. No one's questioning our manhood. Weren't you

317
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: crying the drop of a dime. We're good and that's

318
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: what we need to do in today's day and age

319
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: and show people it's okay. So we don't hold that

320
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: ship in anymore and we start, you know, opening up

321
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: and being real with each other. So man, I'm honored

322
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: that you did that. I'm proud of you. Man, that's

323
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: fucking strong. I'm proud of you. Thank you so much.

324
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you it was that moment if it

325
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: never went any further, which I knew, Like thing is

326
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: every day I go in to do this. When I

327
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: went on, two different TV shows have been producing you

328
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: know since then. Probably my strong suit is my brain

329
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 1: is a little bit like a matrix, so I look

330
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 1: at things from a thirty thousand foot view looking down.

331
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: But also I'm a ground level guy. I self proclaim

332
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 1: myself the realist. What I mean is I'm a dreamer

333
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: and a realist. So the dream is amazing. Everyone's creative,

334
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: everyone's got a dream that I need. What you got

335
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: to do is have that will power. You've got to

336
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: get the skills, and you have to have the thrills,

337
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: but without the willpower, without the mental fortitude to move forward.

338
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: As soon as you hit a brick wall, you'll stop.

339
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: The minute I hit a brick wall, I kicked that

340
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: fucker down and found a way over it and a

341
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: way to get through it. And then it led to

342
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 1: the Columbia Records and Tapes Club, if you remember that

343
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: for a penny. When first I looked and go, holy craft,

344
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: I'm lifted up here with Aerosmith and Zeppelin and Kiss.

345
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: That was great. And then to be able to be

346
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: playing the stadiums now you know here we are thirty

347
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: six years into it, if not more. As an absolute

348
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 1: fan of music and sports, it I brought both of

349
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: those together. I take my my daughters out, we build

350
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,479
Speaker 1: a motocross track, We have a mini little football field.

351
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's crazy, it's I just combined my

352
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: love of music and sports and and people and just

353
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: keep it rocking. You. You've also you've reinvented yourself over

354
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: and over and over and over. Right, You've done TV

355
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 1: shows that rock love. You wrote your song with your daughter.

356
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,400
Speaker 1: You have something coming is on and it's coming out

357
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 1: on a biopic on you. Right, there's a biopic on

358
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: A and E Yes thank you. So you've real and

359
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: you've reinvented yourself over and over and over. Why So?

360
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: I started with football and I was fighting at the time,

361
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: and then I said, well, you know this mixed martial

362
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 1: arts sport, it's gonna take off. They're gonna need announcers,

363
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: which is what happened, right. And then I've done ballers

364
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: and I started charities with and EP emerging Vets and player.

365
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: Now I'm reinventing myself a little more with trying to

366
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 1: be the voice of mental health, to give people words,

367
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: you know, to have the conversation. But like over the years,

368
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: I just reinvented myself. A lot of mine came out

369
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: of fear that I'm gonna lose it all, and then

370
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: I always got to have something else because that's my depression.

371
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: Anxiety tells me I'm not worthy of it, and I don't.

372
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: It's all gonna leave tomorrow because I don't deserve it.

373
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: I'm not worthy of it, and it just man, and

374
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: it sucks, and I wake up with it every day.

375
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: So I constantly reinvent myself and things I'm gonna do,

376
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: so I'm more out of fear. Why do you reinvent yourself?

377
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: First of all, if you don't mind me just taking

378
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: a minute to talk with you about exactly what you're

379
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: going through, because this is what makes great friends and loyalty.

380
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: First of all, I want to take yours, which is

381
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 1: when people talk about, oh, no fear, there's no fear.

382
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 1: When we say no fear, no fear is what we

383
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: have to find. What you have inside of you is

384
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 1: this constant drive. It's this constant storm that's inside of me.

385
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and I think a bit of that with

386
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 1: you is a feeling of Again, I want to say this.

387
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: If you say I don't feel I'm worthy that ticket,

388
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: here is where you excel. Most people when they hit

389
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: that crawl up and they don't fight through it, what

390
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: you're showing them was we fight through it. I want

391
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: to tell everybody out there, it's painful. Sometimes it is

392
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: knowing that listen. In the entertainment business, no different from sports,

393
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,479
Speaker 1: no different from every time you've created yourself out of

394
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: fear but then took it to the next level. It's

395
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: no different than what I do in the music business.

396
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're here today, gone later, not even

397
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 1: later this afternoon, and I have just Here's where my

398
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: no fear moment comes is that I just don't ever know.

399
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 1: I never know it's gonna be a huge success. I

400
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: just never think it's going to fail, and then I

401
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: find a way to get it done. I know that

402
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 1: sounds crazy. When I did Apprentice, I'm in the middle

403
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: of Rock Love. It's the highest rated show, and so

404
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: I'm helping I produce all these I get into the

405
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: you ask anybody of work with, I get into the

406
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: nitty gritty. I'm hands on. I'm like, no, listen. My

407
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: thing that turns me on is being into the creative

408
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: and turning it into the real deal. But when I

409
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 1: get into the nitty gritty these shows, so here I am.

410
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: We're doing Rock Love. We're about to do a third season.

411
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 1: It's their highest rated show. It's crazy, ridiculous dating world,

412
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: complete opposite of doing an apprentice, right I asked to

413
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: go on Apprentice, like. It wasn't like I go there

414
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: like you're crazy. You're gonna go on there if you

415
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: don't like you You're just You're gonna look like you

416
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: know where I'm going with this. You're gonna look like

417
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: an idiot, you know what I mean? You'll be on

418
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 1: their one episode and gone. I said, no, I don't

419
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 1: know I'm gonna win it. But when if any of

420
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: this show is a real they will see my work ethic.

421
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: They will see how I work with people, and that

422
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: it didn't get here by being lucky for this many years.

423
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 1: And then in the middle all that came you were

424
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 1: asking about that most unbreakable moment. In the middle of

425
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: doing that is when I had the brain hemorrhage. So

426
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: now I have this life ending subractnoid brain hemorrhage. And

427
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: the minute I came out of the you know it

428
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 1: was a t I a a stroke as well when

429
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: I woke up and came out of it. And I

430
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 1: will never forget that moment. I look up and there's

431
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: a nurse and all white and she's massaging my legs

432
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: and I'm not kidding you. For a minute, I thought

433
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: this this Heaven. I made it to heaven where the

434
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: nurses they have I goes this it. I guess I

435
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: did something right. God, I did a few things good.

436
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: And then when I realized I was going to live. Uh,

437
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 1: Dr z at the Hospital of Barrow is one of

438
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: the best in the world who saved my life. He said,

439
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 1: I've never seen anyone is determined to head up and

440
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: down that hallway learning to walk everything again. And I

441
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: keep adding to this, going back to what you had

442
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: started with. I know I sometimes go all over the place,

443
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 1: but thank you, I have it. My dad used to

444
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: be ready for this. When I was a kid. My

445
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: dad and mom said to me, oh, my son just

446
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: has a little extra energy, right right, right, right right right.

447
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, the kid has a little extra energy. Man,

448
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: he's spunky. And they'll be talking about a motorcycle and

449
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: the next thing you know, he's out in the front

450
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 1: yard throwing football. We're like, wait, what. So I write

451
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: my book about my a d D. And I used

452
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: to be told that you know how to learning disability,

453
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 1: and I look at it and I go, no, I

454
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: just don't learn the way you all teach. I learned fine,

455
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: I just don't learn the way you teach. I coach

456
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,199

572
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: the MTV Awards. I'm like, everyone's like, when you go

573
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: in the rack your you know they're trying of a

574
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: public coming. I go, I don't listen. If you ever

575
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: talk to me, I don't know a sound bite. I

576
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: just I just kind of talk and if it works right.

577
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 1: If it doesn't, then that friendship roles, you know, we

578
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: become acquaintances instead of friends, right, And I go, They're like, well,

579
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna act like you've been here before, And I go,

580
00:29:55,680 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: I never been here before. And I don' act like

581
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: I've been there before. Yeah, I don't want to act

582
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: too cool for school. I want to always. I still,

583
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: I'm never going to put the nero. I will never

584
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: put the nero out of work. My acting sucks, I said, reality,

585
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: I can do this, you know. So I just went

586
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: in there and said I was walking over talking to people,

587
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: hugging him on the carpet. I'm like, how are you doing?

588
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: And it it ended up making some great friendships. But

589
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't help but smile. But that's the authenticity, man,

590
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: which makes you so relatable as you always continue to

591
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: build on yourself and building yourself. If you're authentic, especially

592
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: a day where everything is social media now is so

593
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: filtered and so fake, they're more authentic you are, people

594
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: will just gravitate towards you. Here's the thing. First of all,

595
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: thank you, you're right, And I don't mean myself. I

596
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: will tell people this, I say this to my kids.

597
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 1: I say this to my family. I never have to

598
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: look over my shoulder. If I'm authentic, if I'm sincere

599
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 1: and passionate, I never have to look over my shoulder.

600
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: And it's a great feeling because I feel like I'm living.

601
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying the here and now. But always mentally, I'm

602
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 1: gonna speak for you. We're always pushing forward. We want

603
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: to move the gate forward, you know, faster and more stuff,

604
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: whether it's out of fear or taking that fear and

605
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: turning it into success. And I'll leave you with one

606
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: note for any listener who's feeling down right, I just

607
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: want to say this having a moment, let's call it.

608
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: The most important thing is to remember if you try,

609
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: there is no such thing as absolute failure. There's just

610
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: lesser successes. If I played you the amount of songs

611
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 1: I have on my phone that became, I thought they

612
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: were the greatest things in the world. They were just

613
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: lesser success as one of them. We have the new

614
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: song there with me. Back in the day, I barely

615
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: put it out as like a flash release. I just

616
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 1: I said, just throw it out. I spending months building up.

617
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: I'm a rocker. It's either going to hit or it isn't,

618
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,719
Speaker 1: and it blew up because people relate are relating to it.

619
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: But then I have some I think are the greatest

620
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: songs ever and they just missed. But instead of getting bummed,

621
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: I felt that I laid it on the line and

622
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: I did the best I could. That's an amazing way

623
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 1: to finish this up. Man. I appreciate you. Hey, get

626
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: Definitely definitely got this will be one of them. Lifelong

627
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: friendships have lifelong and I'm not making this up for real.

628
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,520

644
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: players were taking former combat vets and former pro athletes

645
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 1: emerging together and really working on their mental health and

646
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: just giving him a team again. Because you lose that

647
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: locker room that that's when it sucks you. You know

648
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: when I write my book about how we get through

649
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: the grade, you gotta find your team. When you lose

650
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 1: your team, it's scary. So man, I really appreciate that. Hey,

Speaker 1: promote real quick for us. Well, I just wanted to say,

654
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: first of all, an honor to be on your show.

655
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: There's a brand new song. It's on the house. Just

656
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: go to Brett Michael's YouTube and check out the video

657
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 1: and the new single. It's just called back in the Day.

658
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: But I advise everyone listening. There's a song I wrote

659
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: with my youngest daughter, Georgia Blue called Unbroken. It exploded

660
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: for many reasons, but you have to watch the video.

661
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: It is inspiring and it's taking that adversity and turning

662
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: it into becoming victorious rather than a victim. And the

663
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: other thing I was gonna say is we've got the

664
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: Party Girl tour coming and this is this is where

665

Speaker 1: you're gonna join me on stage and talking about right.

666
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: If you ever see the way I run my stage,

667
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: I've been up there with everyone from Jimmy Page to
