WEBVTT - Episode 21 - Bobby's Crazy Weekend and He Thinks He Could Be President (11-14-16)

0:00:01.320 --> 0:00:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I guess episode twenty one of the Bobby Cast. Here's

0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Monday night. Whenever we record this. I appreciate you guys

0:00:08.880 --> 0:00:14.000
<v Speaker 1>being here. Our next Bobby Cast should unless something weird happens,

0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:18.280
<v Speaker 1>have Lauren Elena in and on. And she's actually a

0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:21.759
<v Speaker 1>friend and she's very entertaining. Man, she's a handful too,

0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:25.320
<v Speaker 1>so just because I mean, there's some artists like Control,

0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:27.840
<v Speaker 1>not really Lauren, so that'd be fun. That would be

0:00:28.120 --> 0:00:31.080
<v Speaker 1>the next Bobby Cast. So I appreciate you guys being here.

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Leonard Cohen died, and not the black people know Leonard

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 1>Cohen is in my generation. If you're a music nerd

0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 1>or you're older, you knew who Leonard Cohen was. And

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 1>so Hallelujah was and then but you don't really careful music.

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>So he wrote it. But for me, the Jeff Buckley

0:00:55.760 --> 0:01:06.240
<v Speaker 1>version it was a cover is so good and so

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I spent the weekend. It's funny when the artist dies,

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>you go back in you like rerespect him because everybody

0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:16.119
<v Speaker 1>it's like passing cars. Artists and songs like passing cars.

0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:18.240
<v Speaker 1>You forget how how great some things are. There's something

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>else there, there's something else there. But someone dies, you

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 1>have to go back, and you're like, oh man, here

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:25.720
<v Speaker 1>they are again. Let me go pay attention. And so

0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Leonard Cohen died. Just how great this song is. But

0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:41.960
<v Speaker 1>this is Jeff Buckley doing it. I'm just having a guitar.

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Do you know this song? I don't mind you know

0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 1>this song? Oh do? Jeff Buckley was awesome too. Hey

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.360
<v Speaker 1>he's about to be He's awesome. But he died in

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.120
<v Speaker 1>the Mississippi River. They never found his body her. There

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 1>was a secret call that David played and it pleased

0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:09.520
<v Speaker 1>the Lord. But you don't really great versions like a

0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>really great song. And it's tough to cover a great

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:14.800
<v Speaker 1>song because most of the time, if you cover a

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.160
<v Speaker 1>great song and you put it out, it comes off

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.120
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of goofy. But yeah, that's one of those

0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 1>rare ones. Even there are a few, like Uncle Cracker

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 1>did drift Away pretty well. That was risky, I mean

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:29.239
<v Speaker 1>because drift aways a big one. Uh, there are a

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of those like that. So I spent the weekend

0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:35.640
<v Speaker 1>doing that. Just are the weekend was nuts. Let me

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:37.240
<v Speaker 1>talk about this for a second. I'm sorry Blue Apron

0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:39.120

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>actually less than ten dollars. Recipes like seasonal recipes that

0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:01.440
<v Speaker 1>change all the time, preportion to ingredients to make delicious

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:03.840

<v Speaker 1>that's it, and he sings the whole thing. I'm playing

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 1>a guitar. John Mayer has new music coming out Friday.

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I got a bone remember that. I can

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:32.960
<v Speaker 1>out wait a new John Mayor song is not an album,

0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:36.039
<v Speaker 1>but a new John Mayer song comes out. Uh. The

0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 1>weekend was weird for a bunch of reasons. I'll start

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.920
<v Speaker 1>with this, is that we go and we play two

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>Raging Idiots shows in Florida, and we're about to wrap

0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:46.320
<v Speaker 1>up the Raging Idiots, and we were really going to

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 1>wrap up the Raging Idiots like for a long time,

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:50.400
<v Speaker 1>and then we got to offer to go play stagecoach

0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:53.080
<v Speaker 1>and we were like, well, we can't say no to this,

0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:56.440
<v Speaker 1>and so I guess we're gonna do like one or

0:04:56.440 --> 0:05:00.480
<v Speaker 1>two shows next year because Stagecoach just h Coach is

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.040
<v Speaker 1>a huge festival California, and they invited us to play

0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:05.880
<v Speaker 1>and Chennai at Twain headlines that night and Marion Morris

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 1>and Dan and Shay and so I was like, we

0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:11.599
<v Speaker 1>can't say no. So we were doing that. Um that

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:15.120
<v Speaker 1>was announced today, but yeah, that's crazy. So we go

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 1>out and we land in Fort Lauderdealty Airport. We finished

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.120
<v Speaker 1>the show Friday morning. We land in Fort Lauderdale, and

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 1>some of this time I talked about on the show,

0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 1>but there's just been some odd developments. And we park

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 1>our van not a hundred feet and then not in

0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the yards, not a hundred feet from the window that

0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 1>we were eating, And it was probably twelve thirty or

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 1>one pm. And we have a van, and I know

0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:45.280
<v Speaker 1>for a fact my backpack was underneath my seat, and

0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 1>the van's loaded with stuff. It's a really dark tinted

0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 1>window and you're not gonna get into the back windows,

0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>like your only option only to bust that front window.

0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.240
<v Speaker 1>And the stuff is heavy. You know, you know it's

0:05:57.240 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna be hard to steal this stuff. If it's night

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 1>and there's time and access, you can really get any

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>probably get some equipment, daytime, one pm, crowded parking lot.

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm just a surprised that the van got busted into.

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 1>But what happened was my theory, and I know what's right.

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>But my theory is justin this two left his bag

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:20.960
<v Speaker 1>and the van. His bag is so big you can't

0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:22.280
<v Speaker 1>put it under a seat, so it's just right in

0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:25.720
<v Speaker 1>the middle. And someone walking around who knew what they

0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:29.920
<v Speaker 1>were doing, because they tried to rip the lockout at first.

0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.480
<v Speaker 1>First you grab the door and see it's unlocked, right,

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:35.120
<v Speaker 1>and if it's unlocked, it open the door and get

0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:38.240
<v Speaker 1>whatever you want. We obviously had it locked for Then

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.760
<v Speaker 1>they tried to do a screw driver into the lock.

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.840
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't get it out. This is a rental van too,

0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:46.479
<v Speaker 1>which sucks too because this is my insurance. And so

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 1>then they bust the big they not the big the

0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>side window. There are two big windows. They bust a

0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:56.360
<v Speaker 1>little front part of the window and they reached it

0:06:56.440 --> 0:07:00.159
<v Speaker 1>unlocked the door, and so they gotta work quick. They've

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>just in the suits bag. As they're grabbing his bag,

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>they see mine underneath the seat. Then they grabbed my bag,

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 1>and then as they grab my bag they can see

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:12.480
<v Speaker 1>my drummer stuff and they grabbed his bag and those

0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:18.560
<v Speaker 1>they had probably sixty seconds to do it all, thank you.

0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 1>So we come out and we had a lunch, not

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.080
<v Speaker 1>a long lunch, and we walk out and they're like

0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:31.840
<v Speaker 1>windows busted. I'm like, oh boy, I've been here before.

0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.360
<v Speaker 1>We just got we got rocked and my bag's gone.

0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:38.440
<v Speaker 1>I know. Immediately I was like, my bag's gone, and

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Justin's freaking out and everybody's trying to figure out if

0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:45.320
<v Speaker 1>their stuff has been stolen. The first thing that people

0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>just they went to look at their instruments because that

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:52.360
<v Speaker 1>was arguably the most expensive stuff. And the people have

0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:53.920
<v Speaker 1>their stuff in the way back of the van have

0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 1>to worry because the person's not gonna go climbing over

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 1>three or four seats. No instruments were stolen, thank god. Um,

0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>but at all my drummer, Justin and myself all of

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:07.160
<v Speaker 1>our laptops and then we all had stuff in our backs,

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:11.400
<v Speaker 1>like Justin as a printer in his life and more

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>for me, it was like technical stuff, expensive stuff. A

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 1>laptop really, I mean a strong laptop. Two uh, you know, headphones,

0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:26.000
<v Speaker 1>iPad um inner, ear monitors, you know, stupid expensive to

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 1>whatever it all gets stolen. And I just had a

0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:35.600
<v Speaker 1>conversation with my business manager, who I was so against

0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:38.719
<v Speaker 1>getting a business manager for so long because I was like, man,

0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna because I have to pay a bunch

0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:41.960
<v Speaker 1>of people. I pay a lot of people in my life.

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:45.640
<v Speaker 1>I have a manager, I have agents. It's weird that

0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm in this place now, But when you have a

0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:50.120
<v Speaker 1>lot of stuff going on, you I can't possibly negotiate

0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:55.439
<v Speaker 1>a book deal. I can't possibly negotiate a recording contract

0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:59.959
<v Speaker 1>with a record label. I can't negotiate a radio contract.

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 1>So you have agents do that, and you have to

0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:05.480
<v Speaker 1>cut them a percentage, and then you have on top

0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:08.960
<v Speaker 1>of that your manager, and you cut a percent into that.

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:10.719
<v Speaker 1>So by the time you get to check, you get

0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>about fifty of what your check is. Then taxes come

0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 1>out of that. So it's a being in the creative world.

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>It's awesome. And I don't say this in a bad way,

0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:19.319
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of people don't understand the lack of

0:09:19.360 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 1>an athlete, for example, gets eight million dollars I got

0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:27.760
<v Speaker 1>signing bonus. He's probably getting like two and a half

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:31.080
<v Speaker 1>million dollars of that realistically, So you have to because

0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:33.800
<v Speaker 1>he has agents and man. But blah blah blah blah blah. Listen,

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:35.600
<v Speaker 1>I wish I was an Athlete's got eight million dollars

0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:37.520
<v Speaker 1>and I don't feel sorry for him one bit. But

0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:41.320
<v Speaker 1>it's so uh what happens is, you know, you have

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:44.120
<v Speaker 1>all these these these layers of people. I call my

0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:46.040
<v Speaker 1>business manager, which is someone else that I have to

0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 1>that I pay, and she takes care of all the

0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>business stuff, meaning she pays people for me. She does

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.600
<v Speaker 1>the taxes like an accountant. Plus because since I don't

0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:57.280
<v Speaker 1>just have one job at a bunch of jobs, she

0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 1>manages all this all these other things for me. And

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.480
<v Speaker 1>so I said, hey, what's the deal with my insurance?

0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:03.760
<v Speaker 1>She goes, well, first of all, you have a five

0:10:03.880 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars deductible, which means I get five thousand dollars

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.560
<v Speaker 1>before I start to get anything back. And my backpack

0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:13.640
<v Speaker 1>up like twelve or thirteen thousand dollars worth of stuff,

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>and so that I mean five grand deductibles. Oh, I

0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.199
<v Speaker 1>have to pay it to get the rest of the stuff.

0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 1>But it's just I shouldn't left the bag and hindsight,

0:10:28.640 --> 0:10:30.720
<v Speaker 1>and I can't even blame it on just in the suit.

0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:35.120
<v Speaker 1>It's just my fault that I left my bag under

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the seat. What his bag? That would have happened if

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.040
<v Speaker 1>my bag was Yeah, they probably still got his bag

0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>and still got gradies bag our drummer. But I can't

0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.280
<v Speaker 1>blame Justin for having his bag out for having my

0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>stuff stolen, because if I were to have my backpack

0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:53.440
<v Speaker 1>inside like I usually carry my backpack everywhere, it would

0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 1>have been stolen. Some people were like, if Joseph one

0:10:55.960 --> 0:11:02.319
<v Speaker 1>have his bag. You can't put other people's problems, your

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>problems on other people when you could have fixed that.

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>So I just got a phone called five thousand are

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:10.480
<v Speaker 1>deductible for and I talked about Drummer his deductible like

0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:13.600
<v Speaker 1>super high two. And so it's like, oh, I feel

0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:16.880
<v Speaker 1>terrible for everybody. So that was the start of for us,

0:11:16.920 --> 0:11:22.120
<v Speaker 1>the start of the weekend. And so we drive to

0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Fort Pierce after we sent the parking lot for three

0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.840
<v Speaker 1>hours waiting for a police officer to get there. All

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:28.800
<v Speaker 1>we all have to do police reports, knowing you're never

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:30.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna get any of it back, but you have to

0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:31.920
<v Speaker 1>file a police report to have any of course sort

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:35.240
<v Speaker 1>of insurance claim. And so we're all doing our police

0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 1>reports and everybody else they were having a grand old time,

0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:43.360
<v Speaker 1>and like they weren't happy we had our stuff stole in,

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:45.679
<v Speaker 1>but they were just happy. It was like they were

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 1>extra happy their stuff wasn't stolen, like it made them

0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.400
<v Speaker 1>happier their stuff wasn't stolen. And so for the other guys,

0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:53.080
<v Speaker 1>you stop was stolen. It was like this weird like

0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:55.559
<v Speaker 1>we're miserable and you guys were having a better time

0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>than you should be. So we again. For me, not

0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:02.600
<v Speaker 1>so much because I've been through the house robbed, I've robbed,

0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:06.040
<v Speaker 1>I've been re jumped, I've been dead threats, so whatever,

0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:10.560
<v Speaker 1>it still sucks. But the other guys were a little

0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:13.160
<v Speaker 1>upset by everybody else being in a really chipper mood.

0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Like at that point you gotta fake it and just

0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:22.600
<v Speaker 1>just kind of chill. Everybody's like, oh, look at the like, yeah,

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>so will you do that? And we're gonna be late

0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:29.040
<v Speaker 1>for the show. Four piers, I said, three hour drive

0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:33.480
<v Speaker 1>or so, so we haul to four piers get there

0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:36.079
<v Speaker 1>just in time. We really don't even get there in

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 1>time for the meat and greet we do before the show,

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:40.640
<v Speaker 1>but we do it anyway, and we're lucky that the

0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:42.719
<v Speaker 1>listeners all knew that what had happened, and they were

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:45.640
<v Speaker 1>so cool, and so usually we try to spend time

0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:48.040
<v Speaker 1>and talk to everybody, and we didn't get to do

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:49.559
<v Speaker 1>it as much as time as more like, hey, thank

0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:51.760
<v Speaker 1>you for coming. We took a picture, and you know,

0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I signed books all the time. People still buy the book,

0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:57.240
<v Speaker 1>which is crazy, and if you're new, it's called bare Bones.

0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>I wrote a book like eight months ago or so,

0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:02.280
<v Speaker 1>and people still buy it and they ordered off Amazon

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.400
<v Speaker 1>or their bookstore and they bring in a sign it.

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:06.880
<v Speaker 1>But we had to kind of rushed through that, which

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.520
<v Speaker 1>I kind of felt guilty about, but then I was like, man,

0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:11.640
<v Speaker 1>we just got robbed. I don't know. It was a

0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:14.080
<v Speaker 1>whole We had to go on stage into a show,

0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:17.600
<v Speaker 1>and I tell you, man, it's hard to go on

0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:19.880
<v Speaker 1>stage when you're to be an idiot when you bring

0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.959
<v Speaker 1>like a catar show is fun. That's the We're not

0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna win any awards for being the best musical at

0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.720
<v Speaker 1>but it's it's it's a really fun show. And so

0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:32.840
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to be fun after a day like that.

0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 1>And so that happened, and for another one of the

0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:41.679
<v Speaker 1>little kinks was inside my bag. Something I wouldn't talk

0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.079
<v Speaker 1>about on the radio. Is that I had the medication

0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I take for anxiety, and so I've been peeling back

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:51.840
<v Speaker 1>from the new Eventually the next few months, I'm gonna

0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:55.360
<v Speaker 1>get off of it all the way. But in my book,

0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:57.920
<v Speaker 1>I wrote about when I was on sleeping pills because

0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:00.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't sleep well because of the anxiety. And I

0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 1>was on sleeping pills for a long time and I

0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:04.840
<v Speaker 1>just stopped taking them. One day. I was like, you

0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>know what, I'm out. And I went through severe withdraws

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>like tremors and vomiting and I couldn't see straight. It

0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:20.640
<v Speaker 1>was almost a week of just body awfulness, and I've

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:23.480
<v Speaker 1>never experienced anything like that. And I didn't even know

0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:27.400
<v Speaker 1>what was happening really at the time until I was done,

0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:31.320
<v Speaker 1>and it was I was really an awful experience. And

0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:33.120
<v Speaker 1>I was like, man, if I ever have to get

0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:36.520
<v Speaker 1>off something again, you just start tapering down, taking a

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 1>little less, a little less less. So that's what I'm

0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 1>doing now with my anxiety medicine. So I call my

0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 1>doctor and I'm like, hey, listen, they stole my medicine

0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:46.320
<v Speaker 1>that is not taking for a couple of days, Like

0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:48.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm fine not taking it for a couple of days

0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:49.960
<v Speaker 1>and I'll just get back home and take it there.

0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.840
<v Speaker 1>And he's like, no, if you just stopped taking it completely,

0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:57.720
<v Speaker 1>you will have withdraw. And he said, and as your physician,

0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:01.040
<v Speaker 1>I can't tell you to do that because people can

0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:03.640
<v Speaker 1>get severely sick or even worse if you go through

0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:08.000
<v Speaker 1>a draw. So what happened was way to call in

0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:10.520
<v Speaker 1>a prescription and I only needed for like one day.

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:12.720
<v Speaker 1>I needed a one day prescription. It wasn't like, uh,

0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:16.880
<v Speaker 1>ended a new prescription and nobody would fill it because

0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:18.880
<v Speaker 1>it was like coming from a different state and it

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:22.160
<v Speaker 1>was and so it's just such a pain in the butt. Finally,

0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:26.400
<v Speaker 1>um drug store. But what we had to do was

0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 1>submit the police report with the prescription and say we

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:34.360
<v Speaker 1>don't need a full prescription. And so that was a pain.

0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:37.200
<v Speaker 1>But as I started to like pulled back from this

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.800
<v Speaker 1>because I would take because right now I'll take like

0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:41.880
<v Speaker 1>three a day. Right now I'm wanting to only take

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:44.200
<v Speaker 1>in two a day. But I'm getting like these weird

0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 1>headaches in the back of my head, like I could

0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:48.360
<v Speaker 1>feel like minor withdraw stuff and my eyes get blurry

0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 1>at times, and so I guess that's just what's gonna

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:52.680
<v Speaker 1>have to happen for the next two months or so.

0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go from two probably a one and a

0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.680
<v Speaker 1>half to one and do it that way because I

0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.600
<v Speaker 1>cannot go through that struggle again. I mean, it rocked

0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:02.080
<v Speaker 1>me for a week, and I didn't know that you

0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:06.480
<v Speaker 1>could really suffer terrible consequences if you just went cold turkey.

0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.640
<v Speaker 1>But uh so I'm doing that now with this, with

0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:12.440
<v Speaker 1>this medicine. Now, it's not something we'll talk about in

0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:16.040
<v Speaker 1>the air. Um, which is why I didn't watch Walking

0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Dead last night as a matter of fact, because I

0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 1>don't want to get all amped up and did not

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.400
<v Speaker 1>have any medicine, and then because I wasn't taken I

0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:24.280
<v Speaker 1>would take them my full medicine and I can feel

0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:26.800
<v Speaker 1>it like I can actually, but I just got to

0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:29.000
<v Speaker 1>find a different coping technique. I gotta go to a

0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:34.680
<v Speaker 1>like a psychologist, a psychiatrist or sit side therapist of

0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:36.640
<v Speaker 1>some story. I gotta get back into that and started

0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.760
<v Speaker 1>like fixing myself mentally. I gotta take care of myself better.

0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:44.880
<v Speaker 1>And it is with being on the road too. So

0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:48.200
<v Speaker 1>that happened. Then we go and we're doing all of

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:51.160
<v Speaker 1>this and stuff's been stolen medicine trying to go and

0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 1>I feel like an addict because I'm going into these

0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:56.040
<v Speaker 1>places and we can't give you this medicine. And I'm like, okay,

0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:57.800
<v Speaker 1>but you know, people come in all the time looking

0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:00.560
<v Speaker 1>for medicine, like making up lies and excuses or stealing no.

0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.280
<v Speaker 1>And I'm just like my doctor's on the phone. I

0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 1>gotta play sport, you know, and I feel guilty, and

0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm like telling my doctor, don't worry about it, like

0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm good. I'll just have a I just feel terrible

0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:13.080
<v Speaker 1>for a day and a half and come back home.

0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:17.040
<v Speaker 1>It's like, at your position, I can't allow that to happen.

0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:20.880
<v Speaker 1>So I like a really good doctor. Probably still good

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:23.240
<v Speaker 1>because I would have just I shouldn't say anything about it.

0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:26.240
<v Speaker 1>I should have just got it it out, but I

0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:30.119
<v Speaker 1>guess I had to let her know eventually. Um so

0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.360
<v Speaker 1>went through that. Then I got, you know, my medicine,

0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:35.439
<v Speaker 1>and I was feeling fine. And we go and we

0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 1>play at Florida State, which was really cool because we're

0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:44.480
<v Speaker 1>playing the football stadium. And we got there and it

0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:46.800
<v Speaker 1>was Tyler Farr, who by the way, is a really

0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:49.159
<v Speaker 1>nice guy, like Tyler a lot Hey. Yeah, actually came

0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:51.120
<v Speaker 1>out played football with us for a bit Old Dominion

0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:56.160
<v Speaker 1>and myself Nettie the raging idiots, and so we're there

0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:57.959
<v Speaker 1>and we we're waiting Ahold a minute for like an

0:17:58.000 --> 0:17:59.760
<v Speaker 1>hour and a half. And I didn't know there were

0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:02.720
<v Speaker 1>no previously hard to work with on the road. I

0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:04.840
<v Speaker 1>had no idea. I only ever met him in the studio,

0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:07.120
<v Speaker 1>and they seemed like nice enough guys to me. I've

0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.840
<v Speaker 1>we've always said it, and from a couple of people

0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:12.280
<v Speaker 1>that were there and not definitely not tiled. I wouldn't

0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:13.680
<v Speaker 1>say anybody's name that said this to me. I would

0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:16.400
<v Speaker 1>never implicate anyone, but we heard they're like, yeah, they're

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:18.200
<v Speaker 1>difficult on the road. I was like, wow, that's weird

0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:20.199
<v Speaker 1>because they're never They've never been difficult to me, but

0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:22.439
<v Speaker 1>it's always in my setting. It's always in the studio,

0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:26.160
<v Speaker 1>so no one's difficult. And really only one of them

0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:28.879
<v Speaker 1>ever even came and said hi, which was weird. But

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:30.400
<v Speaker 1>then I started to think, what could I have done

0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>the irritated them, because what happened. Most of the time

0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I'll say something joking and passing and it means nothing

0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:39.280
<v Speaker 1>to me, but I can definitely see how it would

0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:41.560
<v Speaker 1>bother someone. So I was like, what have I said

0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:45.880
<v Speaker 1>about old dominion that would make them upset at me?

0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Because one, I've only had this one road experience with

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:54.399
<v Speaker 1>them and granted didn't go well, but it can be

0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:56.679
<v Speaker 1>any list of possibility. I'm sure people would deal with

0:18:56.760 --> 0:19:00.399
<v Speaker 1>us and occasionally things don't go well. And I was like,

0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:02.680
<v Speaker 1>there was that time the Eddie and I were making

0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:04.760
<v Speaker 1>fun of and it's a good song to song for

0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:10.960
<v Speaker 1>another time where it has like all the the lyrics

0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.640
<v Speaker 1>and titles of other songs, and I was like, yeah,

0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:15.959
<v Speaker 1>what if we did that with you know, stand up

0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:17.959
<v Speaker 1>joke comedy jokes? And I just took a stand up

0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:20.040
<v Speaker 1>comed joke from every comedian and made a whole set

0:19:20.080 --> 0:19:22.399
<v Speaker 1>about we were just making a joke about that. And

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.240
<v Speaker 1>so I thought that I actually think the song is

0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:26.399
<v Speaker 1>really good, but that probably got back to I started

0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:28.000
<v Speaker 1>thinking about it. I was like, yeah, that probably got

0:19:28.000 --> 0:19:31.000
<v Speaker 1>back to them, and they probably are irritated at me

0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:34.040
<v Speaker 1>for that if it did, or if not, they just

0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:36.879
<v Speaker 1>don't like me, you know, one of them, which this

0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:40.120
<v Speaker 1>is a really good song, but you know, the joke

0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:44.040
<v Speaker 1>was this is all stuff from other songs, So it

0:19:44.119 --> 0:19:46.240
<v Speaker 1>was you create lots of you know whatever. You can

0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:49.399
<v Speaker 1>write a book with chapters like here's this moby Duck chapter. Whatever,

0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:59.760
<v Speaker 1>we're marine planes, Flower, You'll be on this time some

0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:07.160
<v Speaker 1>all of them. I was singing yesterday, Fame, we can't

0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:13.399
<v Speaker 1>stop it, ser food turning that can make you ve.

0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's be brand sweet Cares Saturday before feeling on the ceiling.

0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:30.159
<v Speaker 1>So there you go. That was it. That was my

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:33.320
<v Speaker 1>experience with them. Um. I would like to have you

0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:35.320
<v Speaker 1>know one of those guys in they're all really good

0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:38.560
<v Speaker 1>songwriters who made a band, and now that that's why

0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:41.159
<v Speaker 1>all our songs are so good. I really like all

0:20:41.200 --> 0:20:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Dominion too. But they listen, I would imagine that they're

0:20:47.600 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 1>irritated at me for the jokes about the song. And

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:52.960
<v Speaker 1>my response is I'll probably take something else to hear,

0:20:53.000 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 1>take you too. I didn't even think about it. If

0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:56.760
<v Speaker 1>I started thinking about irritating people by making jokes, I

0:20:56.760 --> 0:20:58.879
<v Speaker 1>can on their bill to make a joke. Damn. A

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:01.200
<v Speaker 1>song called Nowhere Fast, which is my probably my favorite

0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:03.920
<v Speaker 1>song off this album. This Meat and Candy album is

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.040
<v Speaker 1>really good. I talked bad about him, then I talk

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:08.480
<v Speaker 1>about good there. I'm just trying to keep it real.

0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:18.080
<v Speaker 1>This is called nowhere fast and good last go my

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:35.879
<v Speaker 1>Froudsy and she for the run. Run free. This good.

0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:39.880
<v Speaker 1>By the way, if you're listening in your old dominion,

0:21:41.240 --> 0:21:44.040
<v Speaker 1>go on in the tank. I mean, there's really nothing bad.

0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:46.600
<v Speaker 1>It's just my experience. I could be completely wrong about this,

0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:50.280
<v Speaker 1>but they were good though they played. I watched the

0:21:50.280 --> 0:21:51.960
<v Speaker 1>play for a bit. They were good. Here's the chorus

0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:56.119
<v Speaker 1>of this song. Here breath and the last kill the

0:21:56.200 --> 0:22:03.719
<v Speaker 1>hid last soon get called radiable. We were messing around.

0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:06.880
<v Speaker 1>We can hardly break breaking new crowd in my bad

0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 1>season at our food all again going to I shouldn't

0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:15.000
<v Speaker 1>say all that. I did talk to the keys player

0:22:15.040 --> 0:22:16.920
<v Speaker 1>that he's blonde hair, and he was really nice. He

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:18.480
<v Speaker 1>came up and said everybody else was kind of stared

0:22:18.520 --> 0:22:20.400
<v Speaker 1>at me from afar, and I was like, all right,

0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:24.160
<v Speaker 1>this is awkward. Whatever. I got no problem with anybody. Really,

0:22:24.400 --> 0:22:27.679
<v Speaker 1>they're like too artists and I just don't care. And

0:22:27.720 --> 0:22:30.120
<v Speaker 1>if I do care, then I can't make jokes about things,

0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:33.840
<v Speaker 1>so I can't care. Anyway, I don't care. Uh. That

0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:37.159
<v Speaker 1>happened this weekend and we flew back and I started

0:22:37.200 --> 0:22:40.480
<v Speaker 1>replenishing all my crap that was stolen. And people always

0:22:40.480 --> 0:22:43.320
<v Speaker 1>say nothing worse than a thief. You ever heard that saying, Okay,

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:47.440
<v Speaker 1>that's the dumbest thaying ever, Rapists, murderers, pedophiles, there are

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 1>many things worse than a thief, like hackers, you know

0:22:53.640 --> 0:22:58.359
<v Speaker 1>they're it's those sayings, you know nothing, nothing worse than

0:22:58.400 --> 0:23:01.520
<v Speaker 1>a thief, or you couldn't ride it any better than that.

0:23:01.520 --> 0:23:04.480
<v Speaker 1>That to me bothers me, because I can write it

0:23:04.520 --> 0:23:07.639
<v Speaker 1>better than that. I don't. I've never seen a situation

0:23:08.200 --> 0:23:10.760
<v Speaker 1>in my entire life that I couldn't write better than

0:23:10.800 --> 0:23:17.080
<v Speaker 1>what happened. Ever, you just had aliens, or there just

0:23:17.200 --> 0:23:20.120
<v Speaker 1>isn't a situation that I couldn't write better than actually happened,

0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:23.440
<v Speaker 1>or worse than it actually happened. It's like giving more

0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:25.840
<v Speaker 1>than I get it means you gave it you're all,

0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:28.760
<v Speaker 1>but that's one dent means it's all like one means

0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:32.600
<v Speaker 1>everything you know give it. He gave it two a

0:23:32.760 --> 0:23:38.200
<v Speaker 1>thousand percent. You can't do that. You only have you,

0:23:38.200 --> 0:23:40.240
<v Speaker 1>You only have all of you. That's what I present

0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:43.400
<v Speaker 1>the pet peeves. People say you can't write it better

0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 1>than that. I was like, oh my god, I could.

0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:48.240
<v Speaker 1>People say, ain't nothing worse than the thief? That's what

0:23:48.240 --> 0:23:53.480
<v Speaker 1>they kept saying all weekend. I was like, yeah, I mean, yeah, there,

0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:55.720
<v Speaker 1>they are a lot worse than a thief. I'd read

0:23:55.720 --> 0:24:01.400
<v Speaker 1>as me still my backpack and like murder someone. So uh,

0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:06.000
<v Speaker 1>it was cool to play Florida State though, because one

0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Dion Sanders played there, and so I texted on picture

0:24:08.840 --> 0:24:10.959
<v Speaker 1>of me on the scoreboard playing and he was like

0:24:11.200 --> 0:24:13.680
<v Speaker 1>Danny Doggy playing in the stadium and I was like yeah,

0:24:14.080 --> 0:24:15.840
<v Speaker 1>And I didn't tell them we were only playing like

0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:18.280
<v Speaker 1>half because the stage was like only playing like the

0:24:18.320 --> 0:24:20.639
<v Speaker 1>half of it. It wasn't like Kenney Chestney where the

0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:23.359
<v Speaker 1>entire stadium was watching. It was only happy it and uh,

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:26.199
<v Speaker 1>I I just let him think it was the whole stadium.

0:24:26.240 --> 0:24:27.359
<v Speaker 1>I just showed this the picture of me on the

0:24:27.440 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 1>jumbo where I was like, yeah, dude, we're playing the stadium.

0:24:30.400 --> 0:24:33.560
<v Speaker 1>So that was good. Uh. Came home, went to bed.

0:24:33.600 --> 0:24:35.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna sleep number bed. You always sent me talking

0:24:35.920 --> 0:24:38.399
<v Speaker 1>about my sleep number bed and how it's changed my

0:24:38.520 --> 0:24:41.280
<v Speaker 1>life and listen, like I said, I don't sleep well anyway,

0:24:41.280 --> 0:24:44.240
<v Speaker 1>but without my sleep number bed, it would just be terrible.

0:24:44.680 --> 0:24:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Last night, my sleep number setting it was my I

0:24:48.160 --> 0:24:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Q was like in the nineties because I did sleep

0:24:50.040 --> 0:24:52.720
<v Speaker 1>pretty hard. I found that off the medicine, I sleep harder.

0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:54.119
<v Speaker 1>I just it's just harder for me to get to sleep.

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:56.720
<v Speaker 1>That makes sense. It's harder for me to get to sleep,

0:24:56.720 --> 0:24:59.320
<v Speaker 1>but when I do, I sleep a lot harder because

0:24:59.320 --> 0:25:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't have that chemical in me that doesn't allow

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:03.080
<v Speaker 1>me to go into the R E M kind of sleep.

0:25:03.600 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Um my sleep number setting is the thirty and now

0:25:06.520 --> 0:25:09.639
<v Speaker 1>sleep number. They've created a pillow called the comfort Fit Pillow.

0:25:09.640 --> 0:25:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Why it's cool in real life though, is that it

0:25:11.280 --> 0:25:14.040
<v Speaker 1>stays like it doesn't fall out of shape, like it

0:25:14.040 --> 0:25:15.520
<v Speaker 1>goes to how your head is and it stays that

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:18.840
<v Speaker 1>way because it has like the the memory foam and

0:25:18.880 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 1>so it's the comfort Fit pillow at sleep number. If

0:25:21.280 --> 0:25:23.200
<v Speaker 1>you want to get one of these. It's a great

0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:25.160
<v Speaker 1>gift too for somebody that you don't like super love,

0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:27.239
<v Speaker 1>because when you super love, somebody got to get him

0:25:27.280 --> 0:25:29.000
<v Speaker 1>a really good gift. If you just kind of like

0:25:29.080 --> 0:25:31.400
<v Speaker 1>somebody and you want to get something that, uh, they

0:25:31.400 --> 0:25:34.119
<v Speaker 1>can use, getting a pillow, it's a good gift, Like

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I got everyone pillows like three or four years ago.

0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:39.240

0:25:47.000 --> 0:25:50.479
<v Speaker 1>of your life like more there than you're supposed than

0:25:50.520 --> 0:25:53.439
<v Speaker 1>anywhere else. Just about I mean you spend eight hours

0:25:53.440 --> 0:25:55.800
<v Speaker 1>a night supposedly in your bed, and more than that

0:25:55.840 --> 0:25:59.400
<v Speaker 1>probably just hanging out. Anyway, just one face, one place.

0:25:59.440 --> 0:26:01.800
<v Speaker 1>You'll find the for fid pillow at a sleep number

0:26:01.840 --> 0:26:04.639
<v Speaker 1>store by one off and it's all there. Find a

0:26:04.640 --> 0:26:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Sleep number bed Uh. I love Sleep Number and thank

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:10.120
<v Speaker 1>you for being a sponsor of the Bobby cast. Here.

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:14.359
<v Speaker 1>So get back and Lindsey and I go to UM

0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:17.119
<v Speaker 1>the Apple Store and have to buy a new computer

0:26:17.119 --> 0:26:18.240
<v Speaker 1>and then we go get tea. I talk about it

0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:20.720
<v Speaker 1>this in the Morning show. And it was weird that

0:26:20.720 --> 0:26:24.240
<v Speaker 1>we had a day off together because usually I'm on

0:26:24.280 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 1>the road and working and she's on the road and

0:26:25.600 --> 0:26:28.399
<v Speaker 1>working apart working, and we get in different times on

0:26:28.400 --> 0:26:30.000
<v Speaker 1>a Sunday and we just started to get an hour

0:26:30.080 --> 0:26:32.840
<v Speaker 1>to hang out or something. But because she has done

0:26:32.880 --> 0:26:35.520
<v Speaker 1>a couple of shows with us UM, we've actually been

0:26:35.520 --> 0:26:38.560
<v Speaker 1>able to spend time together. And I got the first

0:26:38.600 --> 0:26:41.080
<v Speaker 1>hotel room. I never stay with anyone on the road.

0:26:41.240 --> 0:26:43.479
<v Speaker 1>On the road, you try to save money because hotels

0:26:43.520 --> 0:26:46.200
<v Speaker 1>cost money. I gotta pay for everybody's hotel and so

0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:51.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, I am people share rooms. You get two

0:26:51.040 --> 0:26:53.119
<v Speaker 1>beds in your share room. Like I don't even make

0:26:53.119 --> 0:26:55.320
<v Speaker 1>the girls, say the guys, but like Nikkida will stay

0:26:55.359 --> 0:26:57.240
<v Speaker 1>with our basis Ryan, they're both females. They stay in

0:26:57.280 --> 0:27:00.639
<v Speaker 1>the room together. Eddie and a mod share room that

0:27:00.760 --> 0:27:03.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of thing. I'll keep my own room. Listen, I'm

0:27:03.040 --> 0:27:06.399
<v Speaker 1>my never hotel rooms. I'm bomba. I'm paying for my

0:27:06.400 --> 0:27:09.680
<v Speaker 1>own room, right. But it was like, I don't think

0:27:09.680 --> 0:27:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I can do that if I have a girlfriend on

0:27:10.960 --> 0:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>the road. I don't think she and there was an

0:27:14.280 --> 0:27:18.399
<v Speaker 1>odd number of girls, so I wasn't gonna buy it.

0:27:18.560 --> 0:27:21.119
<v Speaker 1>Just financially was a good decision. And I was like,

0:27:21.119 --> 0:27:22.520
<v Speaker 1>I never had a room by myself on the road.

0:27:22.520 --> 0:27:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Is it's gonna be weird? And it was No, it

0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:26.840
<v Speaker 1>was actually great because then she was like, this is

0:27:26.840 --> 0:27:30.960
<v Speaker 1>how cool Lindsay is. We got back from the show

0:27:33.200 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>in Tallahassee after we played Florida State and we've had

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:40.280
<v Speaker 1>no food. They didn't have any food there, so then

0:27:40.400 --> 0:27:43.720
<v Speaker 1>usually there's there's always catering. If it's a multi level

0:27:43.800 --> 0:27:46.760
<v Speaker 1>show like that, when we go like a Raging India show,

0:27:46.760 --> 0:27:48.879
<v Speaker 1>we have what's called a writer and on the rider

0:27:49.320 --> 0:27:52.840
<v Speaker 1>there is a little bit of food. Back there's like

0:27:52.880 --> 0:27:56.360
<v Speaker 1>ham and vegetables and stuff, but there is a catering budget,

0:27:56.800 --> 0:27:58.560
<v Speaker 1>so you can go and get food from a restaurant.

0:27:58.600 --> 0:28:00.480
<v Speaker 1>And there's a runner always because we do big theater

0:28:00.520 --> 0:28:03.440
<v Speaker 1>shows for two thousand people or so. Um. But this

0:28:03.840 --> 0:28:05.520
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't our show. It was kind of like a

0:28:05.600 --> 0:28:07.960
<v Speaker 1>joint show. And there was no food, and why I

0:28:08.040 --> 0:28:10.639
<v Speaker 1>went was starving, and so I get back in the

0:28:10.760 --> 0:28:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Arkansas game is on, and she went and got food

0:28:15.440 --> 0:28:16.679
<v Speaker 1>to go and got at uber and picked it up

0:28:16.680 --> 0:28:19.280
<v Speaker 1>herself or bought it all back to us. And I

0:28:19.320 --> 0:28:21.359
<v Speaker 1>was like, dang, that's cool, because I don't want to

0:28:21.400 --> 0:28:23.480
<v Speaker 1>leave the Arkansas game. And I was like I gave

0:28:23.480 --> 0:28:25.200
<v Speaker 1>every one of those halfway, Like I'll go with you

0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:32.199
<v Speaker 1>if you want hardcore, because listen, if like the Canadian

0:28:32.280 --> 0:28:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Curling Championships we're on, I probably go get food for her.

0:28:35.760 --> 0:28:38.360
<v Speaker 1>But it was the Arkansas I lost you. We were

0:28:38.360 --> 0:28:40.360
<v Speaker 1>getting killed, and she was like watch the game and

0:28:40.400 --> 0:28:45.000
<v Speaker 1>it's important to you. And she went to Ted's. I've

0:28:45.040 --> 0:28:50.000
<v Speaker 1>never been to Ted's, Ted's Steakhouse, Ted's Meat House, Ted's,

0:28:50.080 --> 0:28:52.800
<v Speaker 1>It's a chain. They had one here in Nashville. So

0:28:52.840 --> 0:28:55.880
<v Speaker 1>she went and picked it up and that's what wait

0:28:55.880 --> 0:28:57.960
<v Speaker 1>for dinner. It was really good, by the way, Ted's,

0:28:58.320 --> 0:29:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Ted's Meat House or whatever you called. Uh. So that's

0:29:01.600 --> 0:29:04.160
<v Speaker 1>anyway that that was cool that she went out and

0:29:04.200 --> 0:29:07.360
<v Speaker 1>did that. Cool chick. She said, my buddy Scott, she's

0:29:07.360 --> 0:29:09.680
<v Speaker 1>playing I think next weekend. She's not on the road

0:29:09.680 --> 0:29:12.680
<v Speaker 1>with us, she's on with playing with Kid Moore next week.

0:29:13.440 --> 0:29:16.440
<v Speaker 1>So buddy Scotty a message because she's playing in Kansas City.

0:29:16.480 --> 0:29:17.600
<v Speaker 1>And I took all the credit for it and had

0:29:17.640 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 1>nothing to do with it because my buddy Scotty, who

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:21.600
<v Speaker 1>lived next door to me growing up and out in

0:29:21.640 --> 0:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>Pine now lives in Kansas City. He took a job

0:29:23.720 --> 0:29:26.320
<v Speaker 1>with the government over there. And she's like, Hey, I'm

0:29:26.320 --> 0:29:28.520
<v Speaker 1>going to play in Kansas City. I'll invite Scotty out.

0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:32.280
<v Speaker 1>I forgot Scotty movie to Kansas City. Oh I got

0:29:32.680 --> 0:29:36.400
<v Speaker 1>And so she remembered that, and so I was like, oh,

0:29:36.440 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 1>that'd be awesome. So she texted him and was like, hey,

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:39.920
<v Speaker 1>should come out to the show. And I was like,

0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:42.960
<v Speaker 1>he's not gonna come. He knows Lindsay. But I was like,

0:29:42.960 --> 0:29:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Scotty is like me, he doesn't want to bother anyone.

0:29:45.440 --> 0:29:47.680
<v Speaker 1>So he's going he agrees, he's gonna go out to

0:29:47.680 --> 0:29:50.920
<v Speaker 1>the show with Lindsay in Kansas City and go and

0:29:51.000 --> 0:29:52.720
<v Speaker 1>be at the show and watch and stuff. And he

0:29:52.760 --> 0:29:54.640
<v Speaker 1>texted me goes, hey, dude, thanks for hooking it up.

0:29:55.560 --> 0:29:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm surprised you've been remembered. I lived in Kansas City

0:29:57.560 --> 0:29:59.240
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, dude, come on, of course I

0:29:59.240 --> 0:30:02.000
<v Speaker 1>remem Really, what are you talking about. We grew up together.

0:30:02.400 --> 0:30:06.040
<v Speaker 1>I forgot completely and I didn't know exactly where Lindsay

0:30:06.120 --> 0:30:07.280
<v Speaker 1>was playing. I didn't even know if she was going

0:30:07.320 --> 0:30:10.040
<v Speaker 1>to get so many levels. I didn't know. And I

0:30:10.040 --> 0:30:11.840
<v Speaker 1>got all the credit for it. And you know what,

0:30:11.920 --> 0:30:13.560
<v Speaker 1>she'll let me have the credit because she didn't care

0:30:13.560 --> 0:30:16.880
<v Speaker 1>about that. She just like, she's just she's just a

0:30:16.880 --> 0:30:21.640
<v Speaker 1>good person. So yeah, that happened. That that was that

0:30:21.760 --> 0:30:25.600
<v Speaker 1>was a thing. Um, I'm trying to think if there's

0:30:25.600 --> 0:30:28.800
<v Speaker 1>anything else, anything else I haven't touched on that that

0:30:28.840 --> 0:30:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I should touch on. Well, it looks like the dynamic

0:30:32.000 --> 0:30:34.560
<v Speaker 1>now between you doing a show with Londy now that

0:30:34.560 --> 0:30:39.880
<v Speaker 1>you guys are officially together. Uh, same, except for everyone

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:42.560
<v Speaker 1>now knows we're together, and so I always do one

0:30:42.640 --> 0:30:44.239
<v Speaker 1>thing on the show where I like come over and

0:30:44.240 --> 0:30:46.320
<v Speaker 1>like kiss it on the cheek or something, just so

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:50.040
<v Speaker 1>because everybody's thinking it. Everybody's like, Okay, we know you're together,

0:30:50.680 --> 0:30:54.640
<v Speaker 1>so are you gonna act different? And we don't. And

0:30:56.160 --> 0:31:01.120
<v Speaker 1>it depends on who's playing with us, because Adalie Stovall,

0:31:01.440 --> 0:31:03.880
<v Speaker 1>who plays fiddle, has done a lot more shows with

0:31:03.960 --> 0:31:08.240
<v Speaker 1>us this year, and so Natalie when she's in the bench,

0:31:08.400 --> 0:31:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Natalie players are right beside me. But if Natalie is

0:31:10.120 --> 0:31:14.120
<v Speaker 1>not there, Lindsay does. And so Lindsay was right beside

0:31:14.160 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 1>me because Natalie wasn't there, and so it was Lindsay.

0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.440
<v Speaker 1>And then Christian Bush um who by the way, has

0:31:21.480 --> 0:31:23.600
<v Speaker 1>a Grammys and c m as and he's playing with

0:31:23.720 --> 0:31:26.840
<v Speaker 1>raging idiots. That that's a good dude, like Christian Bush

0:31:26.880 --> 0:31:30.080
<v Speaker 1>was in sugar Land and Christian Bush now has you know,

0:31:30.120 --> 0:31:33.600
<v Speaker 1>his own stuff, but I mean that he is such

0:31:33.640 --> 0:31:35.880
<v Speaker 1>a good dude. Like I just like being around that guy,

0:31:36.480 --> 0:31:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Christian Bush, and I actually wrote every day is a

0:31:38.640 --> 0:31:42.640
<v Speaker 1>good Day together and wrote on a Raging Idiots record,

0:31:42.720 --> 0:31:45.920
<v Speaker 1>She's at ten, I'm a two. So I got to

0:31:45.920 --> 0:31:47.320
<v Speaker 1>know him a little bit because we didn't know each

0:31:47.320 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>other at all, and we both are represented by C

0:31:51.160 --> 0:31:56.280
<v Speaker 1>A A as far as our musical agents, and they

0:31:56.280 --> 0:31:58.400
<v Speaker 1>were like, hey, Christian Bush is around here, and I

0:31:58.400 --> 0:32:00.360
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, that's cool, and I've never met him before.

0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:03.280
<v Speaker 1>The like you love him because he's such a positive person,

0:32:03.440 --> 0:32:07.400
<v Speaker 1>and um he Christian doesn't live in Nashvilles in Atlanta,

0:32:07.680 --> 0:32:09.080
<v Speaker 1>and he's like you guys would get along because you're

0:32:09.080 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 1>both kind of private when you're not super public. And

0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:14.440
<v Speaker 1>so we just talked to the Layer like, hey, I'm

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:16.520
<v Speaker 1>writing a song for this dope record. He was like,

0:32:17.200 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 1>I love to man. I was like, wait, what you

0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:22.840
<v Speaker 1>have Grammy Awards and you're write for real people and

0:32:22.960 --> 0:32:26.560
<v Speaker 1>uh went over to his place in Nashville and we

0:32:26.640 --> 0:32:28.960
<v Speaker 1>were like we all right about. It's like, I don't

0:32:28.960 --> 0:32:31.480
<v Speaker 1>know what's like your mantra. I was like, I don't know.

0:32:31.640 --> 0:32:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Every day is a good day. I try to live

0:32:32.800 --> 0:32:35.160
<v Speaker 1>by goes. Let's do it. And so that's where it started.

0:32:35.200 --> 0:32:37.320
<v Speaker 1>And then we came back again and wrote She's a

0:32:37.360 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 1>ten em A two or maybe the opposite order, whatever

0:32:39.600 --> 0:32:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the case was, great, dude. All I'm thinking on stages

0:32:43.040 --> 0:32:47.560
<v Speaker 1>is that there's like a Grammy Award winner playing guitar

0:32:47.880 --> 0:32:50.320
<v Speaker 1>for me, and I'm the lead singer. I'm the worst

0:32:50.320 --> 0:32:51.960
<v Speaker 1>singer of the whole group, by the way, and I'm

0:32:51.960 --> 0:32:54.400
<v Speaker 1>the lead singer, and I got a Grammy winner, a

0:32:54.560 --> 0:32:57.600
<v Speaker 1>freaking guitar salvant. I mean, Eddie and I are both

0:32:57.920 --> 0:33:01.560
<v Speaker 1>we're the worst two in the band. Now, if I

0:33:01.560 --> 0:33:04.880
<v Speaker 1>could sing, I'd be an excellent front man because I'm

0:33:04.960 --> 0:33:07.440
<v Speaker 1>very entertaining and I've learned how to do our show.

0:33:07.440 --> 0:33:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I said before, I learned how to do a great show.

0:33:09.480 --> 0:33:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Why I just include everything and keep everything moving around.

0:33:11.840 --> 0:33:14.000
<v Speaker 1>And it's a really The show now that we do

0:33:14.080 --> 0:33:16.120
<v Speaker 1>is reging it. It's a really good and I'm proud

0:33:16.200 --> 0:33:17.760
<v Speaker 1>people to come see it. It didn't used to be

0:33:17.800 --> 0:33:18.800
<v Speaker 1>like that. Used to be like, oh, we don't come

0:33:18.840 --> 0:33:21.680
<v Speaker 1>because we're suck. I've dropped that because the show is good.

0:33:21.800 --> 0:33:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Listen again, it's not Chris Stapleton. You're not gonna come

0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:27.000
<v Speaker 1>away and be like, Wow, that's the best vocals ever heard.

0:33:27.160 --> 0:33:29.680
<v Speaker 1>But you're gonna go man, I smiled, and laughed and

0:33:29.720 --> 0:33:33.240
<v Speaker 1>saying a lot. So yeah, I mean, right at the

0:33:33.240 --> 0:33:34.680
<v Speaker 1>time where I like started to get proud of the show,

0:33:34.720 --> 0:33:37.400
<v Speaker 1>we're like calling it quits. It's exhausted, but we are.

0:33:37.480 --> 0:33:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I am doing this comedy tour next year, which we

0:33:39.200 --> 0:33:41.200
<v Speaker 1>haven't announce yet. I'm not being officially announcing it now

0:33:41.200 --> 0:33:43.280
<v Speaker 1>except I am and I have talked about it before.

0:33:43.280 --> 0:33:45.280
<v Speaker 1>But I'm doing a stand up comedy tour like January

0:33:45.640 --> 0:33:49.600
<v Speaker 1>through May of next year. It doesn't get announ until

0:33:49.600 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 1>the twenty November, so I don't know when you hear this,

0:33:52.040 --> 0:33:55.640
<v Speaker 1>but um, right now, we're going through the two images. Wait,

0:33:56.160 --> 0:33:58.480
<v Speaker 1>that's like what's gonna be the main image? Because you

0:33:58.520 --> 0:34:01.720
<v Speaker 1>have to have posters and digital images, and you know

0:34:01.720 --> 0:34:03.480
<v Speaker 1>we're going to all these cities and you have to

0:34:03.440 --> 0:34:08.040
<v Speaker 1>start building everything out, and so everybody wants like this.

0:34:08.560 --> 0:34:11.200
<v Speaker 1>There's like this what they call the sexy image listen,

0:34:11.560 --> 0:34:14.480
<v Speaker 1>nothing about me exactly, or there's the dope image. And

0:34:14.560 --> 0:34:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I always go for the dope image, Like my mind

0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:19.480
<v Speaker 1>goes go dope because then no one can make fun

0:34:19.520 --> 0:34:21.480
<v Speaker 1>of you if you go sexy or like, what's he

0:34:21.480 --> 0:34:24.640
<v Speaker 1>trying to do? He trying to look at and so

0:34:24.960 --> 0:34:29.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm in this not an argument, because there aren't arguments,

0:34:29.440 --> 0:34:35.239
<v Speaker 1>but we're in the strategic conversation. My manager, Mary Force

0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:36.840
<v Speaker 1>and I are like which picture to use, Like you

0:34:36.840 --> 0:34:38.840
<v Speaker 1>should use one or your really good looking and I

0:34:38.880 --> 0:34:40.920
<v Speaker 1>was like, yeah, I don't like that because then people

0:34:40.920 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 1>are gonna think I'm going for this like good looking

0:34:43.200 --> 0:34:45.799
<v Speaker 1>thing and I'm not even that good looking. Anyway, I say,

0:34:45.920 --> 0:34:47.799
<v Speaker 1>we go with the dope picture with just in my head.

0:34:48.440 --> 0:34:50.200
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know which one we're gonna use yet.

0:34:50.560 --> 0:34:52.160
<v Speaker 1>I gotta like at him again tonight because I sent

0:34:52.200 --> 0:34:54.319
<v Speaker 1>it to Lindsay and I was like, what do you think?

0:34:54.640 --> 0:35:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Because my whole humorous self deprecation and if I'm like,

0:35:00.880 --> 0:35:04.480
<v Speaker 1>even if you're not good looking and you're trying to

0:35:04.560 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 1>look cool, you come off it's kind of a d bag.

0:35:07.040 --> 0:35:09.960
<v Speaker 1>There's a fine line to walk in this, and so

0:35:10.760 --> 0:35:12.480
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm trying to figure out. And by the

0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:13.919
<v Speaker 1>time you hear this, we may have a picture picked

0:35:13.920 --> 0:35:15.839
<v Speaker 1>out to mab see there's either me with a head

0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:18.440
<v Speaker 1>looking up just my head that's the dopey one, or

0:35:18.480 --> 0:35:22.040
<v Speaker 1>like me with the black brick wall background when I'm

0:35:22.080 --> 0:35:25.760
<v Speaker 1>like smiling to the side, that's supposedly the hot one. Listen,

0:35:25.920 --> 0:35:27.480
<v Speaker 1>I'll think out the one and them are hot. But

0:35:27.560 --> 0:35:30.080
<v Speaker 1>we'll see. We'll see what Lindsay says, because she kind

0:35:30.120 --> 0:35:33.719
<v Speaker 1>of gets the whole. Everybody gets it. Everybody has opinions.

0:35:34.560 --> 0:35:39.280
<v Speaker 1>They're like butt holes. Everybody's got one. But that's what's happening.

0:35:39.320 --> 0:35:41.600
<v Speaker 1>People are asking me, I'm not talking more about the election,

0:35:44.280 --> 0:35:46.279
<v Speaker 1>and there's no word. There's no way for me to

0:35:46.320 --> 0:35:49.239
<v Speaker 1>win because I don't have a person. And this is

0:35:49.239 --> 0:35:52.040
<v Speaker 1>what I learned. Making fun of both of them makes

0:35:52.080 --> 0:35:54.720
<v Speaker 1>everybody mad. You don't even get half of a victory.

0:35:55.080 --> 0:35:57.759
<v Speaker 1>You don't even just piss off half the people. You

0:35:57.800 --> 0:36:01.120
<v Speaker 1>get everybody hating you. It's not that people respect that

0:36:01.160 --> 0:36:03.560
<v Speaker 1>you're fair and make fun of both of them. It's

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:06.719
<v Speaker 1>that when you make fun of one of them, the

0:36:06.840 --> 0:36:08.799
<v Speaker 1>half of the people hate you. When you make fun

0:36:08.840 --> 0:36:10.879
<v Speaker 1>of Yeah, they don't know the rest of it. So

0:36:11.040 --> 0:36:13.600
<v Speaker 1>I just stopped talking about it because there was no way.

0:36:13.680 --> 0:36:15.799
<v Speaker 1>If I would have had someone that I was like

0:36:15.880 --> 0:36:18.360
<v Speaker 1>completely for it felt wonderful about and I was like,

0:36:18.400 --> 0:36:20.359
<v Speaker 1>this is my person. Although to tell you, I haven't

0:36:20.360 --> 0:36:23.279
<v Speaker 1>had that, like three I just don't believe in politicians.

0:36:23.440 --> 0:36:26.560
<v Speaker 1>It's not even a little bit. This time. I trouble

0:36:26.600 --> 0:36:30.200
<v Speaker 1>with both of them, but even the last election, I

0:36:30.280 --> 0:36:32.839
<v Speaker 1>just have trouble with politicians in general. So it's hard

0:36:32.880 --> 0:36:35.200
<v Speaker 1>for me to endorse anyone. And Secondly, people don't care

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:39.759
<v Speaker 1>about celebrity endorsements, Like people really don't care. I don't

0:36:39.760 --> 0:36:42.640
<v Speaker 1>know one person that goes Miley Cyrus is voted for him.

0:36:42.920 --> 0:36:46.879
<v Speaker 1>Well count me in. People don't care about celebrity endorsements,

0:36:47.320 --> 0:36:52.000
<v Speaker 1>and you alienate yourself. So as a business move, it's

0:36:52.000 --> 0:36:54.000
<v Speaker 1>a bad move. Now you have to wonder and you

0:36:54.040 --> 0:36:56.319
<v Speaker 1>have to weigh isn't important enough to me? Because I

0:36:56.360 --> 0:36:58.759
<v Speaker 1>get some people that are like, it's important enough to

0:36:58.760 --> 0:37:01.120
<v Speaker 1>me as a citizen to ago and support this person

0:37:01.120 --> 0:37:03.720
<v Speaker 1>publicly and maybe bring these views to the public forefront

0:37:03.760 --> 0:37:06.120
<v Speaker 1>that maybe people aren't seeing. There's that risk, and I

0:37:06.200 --> 0:37:08.680
<v Speaker 1>understand that and I respect that. It's like artists that

0:37:08.719 --> 0:37:11.680
<v Speaker 1>don't do cover songs because there's something that we cover

0:37:11.719 --> 0:37:13.839
<v Speaker 1>songs on the show, and I'm like, I understand it,

0:37:14.000 --> 0:37:16.360
<v Speaker 1>but I'm also not gonna have you on. So I

0:37:16.440 --> 0:37:18.360
<v Speaker 1>respect it and understand that that's your thing. But I

0:37:18.360 --> 0:37:20.120
<v Speaker 1>gotta look at my audience and they don't want an

0:37:20.160 --> 0:37:23.960
<v Speaker 1>unknown song they've never heard and from an artist that's new,

0:37:25.000 --> 0:37:27.680
<v Speaker 1>So it's not gonna help me with ratings. And so

0:37:27.760 --> 0:37:30.759
<v Speaker 1>unless you just blow away good like Stapleton, he could

0:37:30.760 --> 0:37:32.840
<v Speaker 1>come in and play whatever you want to care. But

0:37:33.040 --> 0:37:35.200
<v Speaker 1>when they're artists that are just pretty good and they

0:37:35.200 --> 0:37:37.560
<v Speaker 1>don't want to play a cover and it's just unfamiliar

0:37:37.680 --> 0:37:39.600
<v Speaker 1>and the artist is unfamiliar, I'm always like, you know what,

0:37:39.600 --> 0:37:41.880
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna pass. And sometimes it's a source of contention

0:37:41.960 --> 0:37:43.839
<v Speaker 1>because there's been a few artists that's happened with where

0:37:43.840 --> 0:37:45.400
<v Speaker 1>they're like, you know what, we just don't do covers,

0:37:45.440 --> 0:37:47.600
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, I respect that. As an artist, that's

0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:49.480
<v Speaker 1>what you do. I'm glad and I hope you hold

0:37:49.520 --> 0:37:55.360
<v Speaker 1>true to that. But I as my own radio show artiste,

0:37:55.680 --> 0:37:57.239
<v Speaker 1>I can't put that on because it's not the best

0:37:57.280 --> 0:37:59.839
<v Speaker 1>painting I can paint for the listeners of the show.

0:38:00.280 --> 0:38:04.479
<v Speaker 1>And so um the same thing. You know, I see

0:38:04.520 --> 0:38:07.040
<v Speaker 1>where it means a lot for people to endorse a candidate.

0:38:07.880 --> 0:38:10.040
<v Speaker 1>If you're just looking at it business, it's not a

0:38:10.040 --> 0:38:12.680
<v Speaker 1>good business move. But as a person, we feel like

0:38:12.680 --> 0:38:14.320
<v Speaker 1>that's more important than your business. I completely get it

0:38:14.320 --> 0:38:17.040
<v Speaker 1>and understanding respected it me. I don't have anybody anyway.

0:38:17.239 --> 0:38:19.960
<v Speaker 1>But I learned, don't be against both of them. Just

0:38:20.000 --> 0:38:22.760
<v Speaker 1>shut up instead of being against both of them, because

0:38:23.000 --> 0:38:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I was just getting hammered. I was just getting by

0:38:25.160 --> 0:38:27.560
<v Speaker 1>both sides. And it doesn't bother me to get hammered,

0:38:28.239 --> 0:38:30.480
<v Speaker 1>because I've been getting hammered my entire life. Whenever you

0:38:30.480 --> 0:38:33.160
<v Speaker 1>do anything polarizing or anything with an opinion, the vocal

0:38:33.200 --> 0:38:35.640
<v Speaker 1>minority of against your opinion always comes out and slams you,

0:38:35.719 --> 0:38:37.480
<v Speaker 1>and you just get used to it because nobody ever

0:38:37.520 --> 0:38:39.400
<v Speaker 1>goes to a website and goes, hey, I came all

0:38:39.440 --> 0:38:40.799
<v Speaker 1>the way over here and clicked here you are ill,

0:38:40.840 --> 0:38:42.040
<v Speaker 1>and come over and just send you a message to

0:38:42.040 --> 0:38:44.360
<v Speaker 1>tell you I really enjoyed this segment today. No, people

0:38:44.440 --> 0:38:46.880
<v Speaker 1>just enjoy a segment and they don't go anywhere. But

0:38:46.920 --> 0:38:49.640
<v Speaker 1>people get irritated that caused them to create. It's an action,

0:38:49.960 --> 0:38:52.200
<v Speaker 1>and they're like, I'm so mad, I must voice it somewhere,

0:38:52.280 --> 0:38:53.719
<v Speaker 1>So I must go to their page and tell them

0:38:53.719 --> 0:38:57.480
<v Speaker 1>how bad they suck. And so you do something that's

0:38:57.520 --> 0:38:59.920
<v Speaker 1>positive and good people like it and they just accept

0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:02.160
<v Speaker 1>it and they thank you in their own mind and

0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:04.040
<v Speaker 1>they move on with their day and it helps them pleasantly.

0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:05.520
<v Speaker 1>But if they don't like it, they want you to

0:39:05.600 --> 0:39:08.240
<v Speaker 1>know they didn't like it. So it's just a world

0:39:08.360 --> 0:39:11.000
<v Speaker 1>you have to understand. And I always get irritated when

0:39:11.000 --> 0:39:13.759
<v Speaker 1>celebrities go, I'm just not gonna let internet trolls bring

0:39:13.760 --> 0:39:17.959
<v Speaker 1>me down. Don't be a celebrity. If you're worried about

0:39:18.040 --> 0:39:20.680
<v Speaker 1>don't put yourself on social media. If you're worried about

0:39:20.680 --> 0:39:24.160
<v Speaker 1>internet bullies. Now, kids getting bullied by kids at school

0:39:24.160 --> 0:39:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and internet, that's a whole different thing that they're not celebrities.

0:39:26.960 --> 0:39:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Once you become a public figure, people are gonna come

0:39:30.520 --> 0:39:32.799
<v Speaker 1>after you. Now, if they're threatening your life or your

0:39:32.880 --> 0:39:34.880
<v Speaker 1>likelihood or your kids, it's a different story. But if

0:39:34.880 --> 0:39:37.799
<v Speaker 1>they're just saying you're ugly, you're stupid, you're fat, you're

0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:41.080
<v Speaker 1>not funny, then don't be a celebrity and get on

0:39:41.120 --> 0:39:45.239
<v Speaker 1>Twitter because that's going to happen. There's a story about

0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Miranda Lambert, like, Branda Lebert's not letting Internet bullies take

0:39:48.600 --> 0:39:53.279
<v Speaker 1>her down. She's taking a stand. You're a celebrity. This

0:39:53.320 --> 0:39:55.680
<v Speaker 1>is what happens when your celebrity. People will say they

0:39:55.800 --> 0:39:58.960
<v Speaker 1>you give them access because it helps you, It humanizes you,

0:39:59.280 --> 0:40:03.080
<v Speaker 1>and in return, people are real dicks and you just

0:40:03.120 --> 0:40:05.880
<v Speaker 1>have to take it. And you can block people and

0:40:05.960 --> 0:40:07.840
<v Speaker 1>block all the time, like I have no shame I

0:40:07.960 --> 0:40:10.239
<v Speaker 1>blocked people that aren't even dick. Sometimes sometimes I just

0:40:10.280 --> 0:40:14.080
<v Speaker 1>get irritated to people like I don't care that Hillary

0:40:14.080 --> 0:40:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Clinton says this for the eleventh time. I know you're

0:40:16.560 --> 0:40:18.719
<v Speaker 1>not being a dick, but I don't care. I don't

0:40:18.760 --> 0:40:20.320
<v Speaker 1>care that Donald Trump has done there, Like I just

0:40:20.360 --> 0:40:22.000
<v Speaker 1>don't care. And I'm getting tired of seeing your tweets

0:40:22.000 --> 0:40:25.680
<v Speaker 1>on my timeline, So mute then block in that order.

0:40:26.440 --> 0:40:29.400
<v Speaker 1>But most of the time I have the right to

0:40:29.440 --> 0:40:30.759
<v Speaker 1>block you. You You have the right to message to me,

0:40:30.800 --> 0:40:35.560
<v Speaker 1>everything's good, don't threaten me, don't threaten anyone safety. But

0:40:35.760 --> 0:40:37.839
<v Speaker 1>part of being a public figure is what comes with it.

0:40:38.080 --> 0:40:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Your public and people can say things about you publicly,

0:40:40.719 --> 0:40:45.360
<v Speaker 1>and that's part of the deal. And so I stopped

0:40:45.400 --> 0:40:48.279
<v Speaker 1>talking about the election period on the show. The only

0:40:48.280 --> 0:40:51.640
<v Speaker 1>thing we talked about was raised Bet because there just

0:40:51.760 --> 0:40:57.640
<v Speaker 1>was nothing that I could say positive that made any sense.

0:40:57.960 --> 0:40:59.160
<v Speaker 1>And I just wanted to make fun of both of

0:40:59.160 --> 0:41:01.440
<v Speaker 1>them all the time, because there's always as someone who

0:41:01.440 --> 0:41:03.440
<v Speaker 1>looks for the humor and stuff there's always humor and stuff,

0:41:03.600 --> 0:41:04.920
<v Speaker 1>and when you do that, people get mad at you.

0:41:05.000 --> 0:41:07.960
<v Speaker 1>So it just wasn't worth it. So I'm done. The

0:41:08.000 --> 0:41:11.800
<v Speaker 1>election is over. I think you know, as a country,

0:41:12.800 --> 0:41:17.040
<v Speaker 1>it is now what it is. And I do agree

0:41:17.080 --> 0:41:19.680
<v Speaker 1>that if you voted for Donald Trump probably very happy

0:41:19.760 --> 0:41:21.680
<v Speaker 1>right now. If you didn't vote for Donald Trump, it's

0:41:21.719 --> 0:41:24.520
<v Speaker 1>tough and you're like, what do we do because you

0:41:24.640 --> 0:41:26.600
<v Speaker 1>probably disagree with a lot of the things that he

0:41:26.719 --> 0:41:30.440
<v Speaker 1>said and stood for, and but he is going to

0:41:30.480 --> 0:41:34.800
<v Speaker 1>be the president. He's not done anything as president yet.

0:41:35.560 --> 0:41:44.279
<v Speaker 1>That's really obnoxious or insult It's almost like he gets

0:41:44.320 --> 0:41:49.960
<v Speaker 1>a fresh white board, a fresh president white board, and

0:41:50.040 --> 0:41:52.120
<v Speaker 1>let's see what he does. That's how I look at

0:41:52.120 --> 0:41:58.239
<v Speaker 1>it in my mind, like I can't complain about Donald

0:41:58.239 --> 0:41:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Trump the president yet because he hasn't been the presce

0:42:00.120 --> 0:42:04.279
<v Speaker 1>it um. But that's just me. I feel like I

0:42:04.320 --> 0:42:07.600
<v Speaker 1>should give him a chance. I respect the office of

0:42:07.640 --> 0:42:11.400
<v Speaker 1>the presidency, and for me not to give someone a chance,

0:42:12.000 --> 0:42:13.960
<v Speaker 1>you guys, I didn't vote for Donald Trump, so I'm

0:42:13.960 --> 0:42:16.759
<v Speaker 1>not saying this is a trumper. For me not to

0:42:16.760 --> 0:42:20.520
<v Speaker 1>give someone a chance, I feel would be being hypocritical

0:42:20.920 --> 0:42:24.560
<v Speaker 1>of what I've always said I respect the office and

0:42:24.680 --> 0:42:29.640
<v Speaker 1>until unless until it doesn't deserve that person doesn't reserve

0:42:29.960 --> 0:42:32.680
<v Speaker 1>deserve the respect. So yeah, I hope he. I hope

0:42:32.680 --> 0:42:35.359
<v Speaker 1>he gets in and crushes it. I hope anybody gets

0:42:35.360 --> 0:42:38.000
<v Speaker 1>in and crushes it. This is our country we're talking about.

0:42:38.080 --> 0:42:39.920
<v Speaker 1>As much as you hate him, wouldn't it be awesome

0:42:40.000 --> 0:42:42.640
<v Speaker 1>if he went in and did wonderful for everyone? Can we?

0:42:43.320 --> 0:42:45.560
<v Speaker 1>This is my whole beef of politicians. One, they're mostly

0:42:45.640 --> 0:42:47.040
<v Speaker 1>rich when they get in office. That's how they can

0:42:47.080 --> 0:42:48.680
<v Speaker 1>run for office because they don't have to have a

0:42:48.680 --> 0:42:52.080
<v Speaker 1>real job. That's why most normal people aren't politicians because

0:42:52.320 --> 0:42:55.040
<v Speaker 1>normal people don't have the money to go run for office.

0:42:55.719 --> 0:42:58.160
<v Speaker 1>And it's a real rich person thing to do to

0:42:58.320 --> 0:43:00.360
<v Speaker 1>go try to be a congressman. But as if you

0:43:00.400 --> 0:43:03.200
<v Speaker 1>have a nine to five job, or you're a mill

0:43:03.200 --> 0:43:06.280
<v Speaker 1>worker like my stepdad, or an accountant or a waiter

0:43:06.480 --> 0:43:09.080
<v Speaker 1>or whatever your job is, you don't have time to

0:43:09.120 --> 0:43:15.280
<v Speaker 1>go and campaign to be this politician. So normal people,

0:43:15.520 --> 0:43:18.279
<v Speaker 1>for the most part aren't politicians, and that's why we

0:43:18.400 --> 0:43:21.120
<v Speaker 1>end up with people that aren't that normal running all

0:43:21.160 --> 0:43:23.200
<v Speaker 1>of our government. They don't understand what normal people are

0:43:23.239 --> 0:43:25.200
<v Speaker 1>going through. And my all point is that is I

0:43:25.200 --> 0:43:27.960
<v Speaker 1>think now I can be president. Honest to God, after

0:43:28.000 --> 0:43:29.520
<v Speaker 1>watching what happened, I think I can be president of

0:43:29.560 --> 0:43:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the United States. I never used to think that because

0:43:31.640 --> 0:43:33.560
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I, you probably need to have some

0:43:33.640 --> 0:43:35.960
<v Speaker 1>sort of military background, and I definitely don't have the

0:43:35.960 --> 0:43:39.120
<v Speaker 1>balls for that. Never did. I'm a weenie boy, and

0:43:39.200 --> 0:43:42.600
<v Speaker 1>people in military got big old go neds even and

0:43:42.640 --> 0:43:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I say that man and woman. I just mean, that's

0:43:44.960 --> 0:43:46.600
<v Speaker 1>a brave thing to do, and I don't have the

0:43:46.600 --> 0:43:49.280
<v Speaker 1>heart for that. Or you need to be an attorney

0:43:49.440 --> 0:43:56.600
<v Speaker 1>and know the law and be a lawyer, or or no,

0:43:56.920 --> 0:43:58.239
<v Speaker 1>it's about it, And I was like, I'll never be

0:43:58.320 --> 0:44:01.080
<v Speaker 1>any of those, So I don't now a Donald Trump

0:44:01.120 --> 0:44:02.920
<v Speaker 1>winning it. It's just like, Okay, let me see I

0:44:03.000 --> 0:44:05.160
<v Speaker 1>get really famous and then be a good person and

0:44:05.200 --> 0:44:12.200
<v Speaker 1>i'mber president, okay, Like it's it's almost inspired me to be,

0:44:12.239 --> 0:44:13.960
<v Speaker 1>like I really because I've always said I'll run for

0:44:13.960 --> 0:44:18.520
<v Speaker 1>office one day. I've always thought that forever, since being

0:44:18.520 --> 0:44:20.359
<v Speaker 1>like eight years old. But I wanted to do this

0:44:20.400 --> 0:44:23.160
<v Speaker 1>for earlier. I'm doing what I love right now, but

0:44:23.200 --> 0:44:25.080
<v Speaker 1>eventually never be a time where I'm just not getting

0:44:25.160 --> 0:44:27.880
<v Speaker 1>ratings anymore. Or I just don't enjoy waking up at

0:44:27.920 --> 0:44:29.799
<v Speaker 1>during the dur in the morning anymore. I don't know.

0:44:30.440 --> 0:44:32.759
<v Speaker 1>And I'm telling my thirties right now, at fifteen years,

0:44:32.840 --> 0:44:35.799
<v Speaker 1>I could decide to do it and still be relatively

0:44:35.840 --> 0:44:41.880
<v Speaker 1>young to do that. But it has shown me that

0:44:41.960 --> 0:44:43.480
<v Speaker 1>if I want to be a freaking president, at least

0:44:43.480 --> 0:44:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I got a shot. I can take a run at it.

0:44:47.480 --> 0:44:49.800
<v Speaker 1>And as crazy as that sounds, I believe it is

0:44:49.960 --> 0:44:55.279
<v Speaker 1>all my heart that nuts to you. No, Like, that's

0:44:55.440 --> 0:44:56.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of what I take away from it too. I

0:44:56.920 --> 0:45:00.400
<v Speaker 1>was like, whoa, I mean, he didn't do anything good politic,

0:45:01.680 --> 0:45:04.480
<v Speaker 1>a rich guy that had a message and it resonated

0:45:04.480 --> 0:45:09.480
<v Speaker 1>with people. If this career works out for me for

0:45:09.520 --> 0:45:13.560
<v Speaker 1>another ten years, I will be fine financially at the

0:45:13.680 --> 0:45:15.920
<v Speaker 1>at the level I'm at now, I'll have money to

0:45:16.000 --> 0:45:17.799
<v Speaker 1>go take a couple of years and go run prothers

0:45:17.840 --> 0:45:20.080
<v Speaker 1>and if I make it great. If I don't, yeah,

0:45:20.400 --> 0:45:24.720
<v Speaker 1>I guess I listen. I go back to doing radio

0:45:24.840 --> 0:45:28.640
<v Speaker 1>or TV or creating ad campaigns or something. But this,

0:45:29.239 --> 0:45:31.759
<v Speaker 1>the one thing about Donald Trump winning has shown me

0:45:31.840 --> 0:45:36.359
<v Speaker 1>that if you just have a message that resonates, good dad,

0:45:36.719 --> 0:45:40.680
<v Speaker 1>what however you feel it was people take that and

0:45:40.800 --> 0:45:44.360
<v Speaker 1>you can inspire people like there have been great leaders

0:45:44.360 --> 0:45:48.839
<v Speaker 1>that have inspired just people through words and through speeches

0:45:49.080 --> 0:45:52.960
<v Speaker 1>and through actions. And I mean, if anything, it's showed

0:45:52.960 --> 0:45:58.240
<v Speaker 1>me that the presidency, the thing that we hold highest,

0:46:00.000 --> 0:46:02.200
<v Speaker 1>really can just be one by the right person at

0:46:02.239 --> 0:46:06.399
<v Speaker 1>the right time, with the right message. And so maybe

0:46:06.440 --> 0:46:08.600
<v Speaker 1>this podcast gets looked at in twenty years as I'm

0:46:08.640 --> 0:46:11.600
<v Speaker 1>president of the United States. Somebody goes day or I

0:46:11.600 --> 0:46:13.799
<v Speaker 1>get fired tomorrow, and then I just moved back to

0:46:13.880 --> 0:46:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Arkansas and we'll move back to Austin and I don't

0:46:18.239 --> 0:46:20.759
<v Speaker 1>work at ad agency or something, and it never comes out.

0:46:20.760 --> 0:46:23.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, who knows. But anyway, that's the deal with that.

0:46:23.920 --> 0:46:26.719
<v Speaker 1>Anything else you want to know, Mike, I'm just with

0:46:26.760 --> 0:46:29.759
<v Speaker 1>the future president right now. I know it sounds ridiculous.

0:46:30.400 --> 0:46:33.239
<v Speaker 1>I believe it in all my heart that if I

0:46:33.280 --> 0:46:35.080
<v Speaker 1>work toward it, I can do it. But I believe

0:46:35.120 --> 0:46:41.840
<v Speaker 1>that I believe that to have something really big happen

0:46:41.960 --> 0:46:45.120
<v Speaker 1>for you, you have to see it and envision it

0:46:45.400 --> 0:46:47.840
<v Speaker 1>and know that it can happen, for it to happen,

0:46:48.040 --> 0:46:50.160
<v Speaker 1>and not give up on it happening even when it

0:46:50.200 --> 0:46:53.759
<v Speaker 1>doesn't happen. Seventy two times in a row. I've told

0:46:53.840 --> 0:46:57.560
<v Speaker 1>the story before. I get rejected thirty times plus for

0:46:57.640 --> 0:47:01.120
<v Speaker 1>radio jobs like fire, not fire, but no, you're not

0:47:01.120 --> 0:47:05.040
<v Speaker 1>good enough. No, And I'm talking about small markets. Tiny

0:47:05.160 --> 0:47:07.680
<v Speaker 1>radio station will tell me you're not good enough. And

0:47:07.719 --> 0:47:10.200
<v Speaker 1>so I finally got my first tiny radio station. And

0:47:10.239 --> 0:47:12.080
<v Speaker 1>then I would apply to medium STAPs like you're not

0:47:12.120 --> 0:47:13.640
<v Speaker 1>good enough, you're not good enough, You're not good So

0:47:13.680 --> 0:47:15.439
<v Speaker 1>I would just work and get better, and I would

0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:18.240
<v Speaker 1>use that. To me, I see adversity as a tool

0:47:18.320 --> 0:47:21.719
<v Speaker 1>to get better, and I think that's the key to

0:47:21.800 --> 0:47:26.440
<v Speaker 1>what I have been able to do. Using adversity as

0:47:26.440 --> 0:47:30.279
<v Speaker 1>a tool and surrounding myself with great people. Those two things,

0:47:30.680 --> 0:47:33.839
<v Speaker 1>to me, have been the keys to the success of

0:47:33.840 --> 0:47:35.719
<v Speaker 1>me and other people that I see trying to do

0:47:35.760 --> 0:47:39.200
<v Speaker 1>big things. You have a vision, You're not gonna get

0:47:39.200 --> 0:47:42.680
<v Speaker 1>anything you don't see. Listen, You're never gonna be the

0:47:42.719 --> 0:47:44.400
<v Speaker 1>president of a company if you can't see yourself being

0:47:44.400 --> 0:47:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the freaking president of the company. Like you want to

0:47:47.040 --> 0:47:48.400
<v Speaker 1>be the president of the company and you're working in

0:47:48.440 --> 0:47:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the mail room, start thinking in your head, I want

0:47:50.480 --> 0:47:51.920
<v Speaker 1>to be the president of the company. What are the

0:47:51.920 --> 0:47:53.720
<v Speaker 1>eleven steps I have to take? To do the president

0:47:53.719 --> 0:47:57.359
<v Speaker 1>of the company. What's the first step? And then you

0:47:57.360 --> 0:47:59.279
<v Speaker 1>take the bigger goals and then you start to figure

0:47:59.280 --> 0:48:01.600
<v Speaker 1>out the steps in betwe them. Because when I was

0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:04.360
<v Speaker 1>working radio and Hot Springs, Arkansas, I was like, this

0:48:04.640 --> 0:48:08.360
<v Speaker 1>great is my hometown, but like, I want to be

0:48:08.400 --> 0:48:11.480
<v Speaker 1>a national show, a national morning show. I was doing

0:48:11.600 --> 0:48:13.439
<v Speaker 1>nights at eighteen years old. I was like, I wanna

0:48:13.440 --> 0:48:16.600
<v Speaker 1>be a national morning show. What are the steps. Step one,

0:48:16.719 --> 0:48:18.520
<v Speaker 1>get to a bigger market doing nights. Step two, get

0:48:18.560 --> 0:48:20.640
<v Speaker 1>to a bigger market doing nights. Step three, either go

0:48:20.719 --> 0:48:23.399
<v Speaker 1>bigger or take a morning show of the same size

0:48:23.480 --> 0:48:26.480
<v Speaker 1>or smaller. So I leveraged it into a morning show

0:48:26.680 --> 0:48:28.880
<v Speaker 1>of the same size. I was like, Okay, now I

0:48:28.880 --> 0:48:31.240
<v Speaker 1>want to syndicate. Took a big risk to the money

0:48:31.239 --> 0:48:33.399
<v Speaker 1>that I was making. Was making fifty grand a year,

0:48:33.680 --> 0:48:35.920
<v Speaker 1>and I took half of that, if not more, and

0:48:36.040 --> 0:48:38.000
<v Speaker 1>invested that back into myself and going to get it,

0:48:38.000 --> 0:48:41.480
<v Speaker 1>buy the equipment, gotta do this, paid Atlanta salary myself

0:48:41.520 --> 0:48:43.920
<v Speaker 1>out of my own money, and I just believe that

0:48:43.960 --> 0:48:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I could do it. And you know what, I wouldn't

0:48:46.920 --> 0:48:48.680
<v Speaker 1>have bet on me in a million years. But I

0:48:48.719 --> 0:48:51.960
<v Speaker 1>was an idiot who just saw this great vision and

0:48:52.040 --> 0:48:55.200
<v Speaker 1>chased it. You're never gonna catch that great vision unless

0:48:55.200 --> 0:48:58.040
<v Speaker 1>you chase it, and you're gonna fail a lot of times.

0:48:58.080 --> 0:49:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I failed one like I felt for every success that

0:49:01.480 --> 0:49:03.799
<v Speaker 1>I have, I have twenty failures. But that's not what

0:49:03.880 --> 0:49:06.280
<v Speaker 1>people know you for. That's not what people see you doing.

0:49:06.560 --> 0:49:08.799
<v Speaker 1>People only see the successes. I had an uncle who

0:49:08.840 --> 0:49:12.640
<v Speaker 1>was UM. He since died. He was a an alcoholic

0:49:13.200 --> 0:49:15.879
<v Speaker 1>UM and he died of alcoholism. He's my mom's brother.

0:49:15.920 --> 0:49:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Alcoholism and runs in my family really bad. He was

0:49:18.080 --> 0:49:22.359
<v Speaker 1>also a I had a gambling addiction UM in which

0:49:22.360 --> 0:49:23.720
<v Speaker 1>I did too for a while, and I have stopped

0:49:23.719 --> 0:49:26.520
<v Speaker 1>gambling completely because I was getting out of control. Also

0:49:26.520 --> 0:49:28.480
<v Speaker 1>wrote about that in my book, where I couldn't stop gambling.

0:49:28.719 --> 0:49:30.680
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't gambling in general. It was just poker.

0:49:30.880 --> 0:49:33.319
<v Speaker 1>But I get obsessive about things, and I was reading

0:49:33.360 --> 0:49:35.000
<v Speaker 1>books and I was playing online, and everything I was

0:49:35.000 --> 0:49:36.880
<v Speaker 1>doing was that radio show on poker, and that's all

0:49:36.920 --> 0:49:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I was doing. But he would tell me, and this

0:49:39.480 --> 0:49:41.200
<v Speaker 1>is a lesson that I still remember from my uncle.

0:49:41.520 --> 0:49:45.200
<v Speaker 1>He said, listen, with gambling, people don't remember your losses.

0:49:45.719 --> 0:49:47.319
<v Speaker 1>He said, I probably lost a lot more money than

0:49:47.360 --> 0:49:48.880
<v Speaker 1>every one in my life. But when I make it,

0:49:48.880 --> 0:49:50.480
<v Speaker 1>when I hit it big, you're always like, man, I

0:49:50.480 --> 0:49:52.839
<v Speaker 1>hate it big. Today. People only remember when you bring

0:49:52.880 --> 0:49:57.839
<v Speaker 1>them those big wins. And so people only remember the

0:49:57.880 --> 0:50:01.640
<v Speaker 1>fact that I started my all morning show and with

0:50:01.680 --> 0:50:04.279
<v Speaker 1>my own money and became a syndicated show because I

0:50:04.320 --> 0:50:06.800
<v Speaker 1>went and did it myself. You know what many stations

0:50:06.880 --> 0:50:09.120
<v Speaker 1>like had us and dropped us and didn't take us,

0:50:09.160 --> 0:50:11.879
<v Speaker 1>and how much of the equipment didn't work forever like

0:50:12.160 --> 0:50:15.880
<v Speaker 1>more than not. And then we finally got it to

0:50:15.960 --> 0:50:19.319
<v Speaker 1>work after so much failure, and then people are like, oh,

0:50:19.440 --> 0:50:22.359
<v Speaker 1>look at this guy who's comes to Nashville and has

0:50:22.400 --> 0:50:25.520
<v Speaker 1>all these God the first two years of my existence

0:50:25.520 --> 0:50:29.839
<v Speaker 1>were miserable here, miserable. I didn't listen. I don't fit

0:50:29.880 --> 0:50:35.280
<v Speaker 1>in now. But somewhat I have leaned towards the culture,

0:50:35.280 --> 0:50:36.799
<v Speaker 1>and some of the cultures leaned towards me a bit

0:50:36.800 --> 0:50:40.720
<v Speaker 1>here as well, And so it's been a nice little

0:50:40.960 --> 0:50:43.120
<v Speaker 1>let's meet in the middle, and both of us understand

0:50:43.120 --> 0:50:44.560
<v Speaker 1>that we're both going towards the same goal, but we're

0:50:44.600 --> 0:50:47.279
<v Speaker 1>not doing it the exact same path, meaning the old

0:50:47.360 --> 0:50:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Nashville establishment and myself, but it's it's you get these

0:50:54.239 --> 0:50:56.880
<v Speaker 1>victories anytimes. How many TV shows have said, hey, come

0:50:56.920 --> 0:50:59.719
<v Speaker 1>to l an audition and I did, just didn't get it,

0:51:00.000 --> 0:51:04.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean, but you just keep plugging away, and then

0:51:04.320 --> 0:51:06.239
<v Speaker 1>I'll get one and then the show doesn't make it,

0:51:07.200 --> 0:51:09.440
<v Speaker 1>and I get a huge one and it gets picked up,

0:51:09.600 --> 0:51:15.320
<v Speaker 1>and then for reasons of relocation, I can't make you

0:51:15.480 --> 0:51:17.920
<v Speaker 1>keep on chucking. I got one right now in production

0:51:17.960 --> 0:51:20.000
<v Speaker 1>of my production company, my Teeth First Company, and then

0:51:20.040 --> 0:51:22.359
<v Speaker 1>one that I'm the host of, and they're both still

0:51:22.360 --> 0:51:24.799
<v Speaker 1>in play right now. And if they both fall out,

0:51:24.840 --> 0:51:26.319
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna get out

0:51:26.320 --> 0:51:28.040
<v Speaker 1>the next day and go all right back at it.

0:51:28.560 --> 0:51:31.239
<v Speaker 1>How can I get at it again? And those are

0:51:31.280 --> 0:51:33.920
<v Speaker 1>the winners in live. It's not the people that do

0:51:34.000 --> 0:51:36.680
<v Speaker 1>it right. It's the people that don't give up. Those

0:51:36.719 --> 0:51:40.160
<v Speaker 1>are the winners in life. Winners in life aren't people

0:51:40.200 --> 0:51:42.560
<v Speaker 1>that are perfect. There are people that just keep on

0:51:42.719 --> 0:51:46.520
<v Speaker 1>pushing all the time, and you're like, well, that must

0:51:46.560 --> 0:51:48.719
<v Speaker 1>be easy. Look at this. Look at Tim mcgrawl, He's

0:51:48.719 --> 0:51:52.000
<v Speaker 1>a superstar man life. Tim mccrawl was grinding it out

0:51:52.000 --> 0:51:56.120
<v Speaker 1>in the apartment with no heat for years, years, but

0:51:56.200 --> 0:52:00.160
<v Speaker 1>we only see the successes. But no, that forever, very

0:52:00.280 --> 0:52:03.000
<v Speaker 1>huge example of person, you see, unless they were just

0:52:03.000 --> 0:52:06.760
<v Speaker 1>giving a whole bunch of money that it was a grind.

0:52:07.400 --> 0:52:09.400
<v Speaker 1>That's what I want to be a politician, though, because

0:52:09.440 --> 0:52:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I think I come from a normal person world, or

0:52:12.040 --> 0:52:14.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of politicians don't. I come from a normal

0:52:14.600 --> 0:52:16.920
<v Speaker 1>person world of growing up having to know what it's

0:52:16.960 --> 0:52:21.720
<v Speaker 1>like to see struggle, and then I lived struggle and

0:52:22.760 --> 0:52:25.319
<v Speaker 1>I've done the whole ground myself by the bootstraps thing.

0:52:25.760 --> 0:52:27.240
<v Speaker 1>And I don't say that in a way of bragging,

0:52:27.239 --> 0:52:28.319
<v Speaker 1>but I say it in a way if I want

0:52:28.320 --> 0:52:29.799
<v Speaker 1>to motivate other people to know that you can do

0:52:29.800 --> 0:52:31.840
<v Speaker 1>the same freaking thing. I don't have any great talent.

0:52:31.840 --> 0:52:34.799
<v Speaker 1>I have no great talent. Nothing about me is absolutely great.

0:52:35.320 --> 0:52:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Nothing about me is talented enough to be in the

0:52:37.120 --> 0:52:42.680
<v Speaker 1>position that I am except for persistence and drive. That's it.

0:52:43.480 --> 0:52:45.400
<v Speaker 1>If that's a that's not a talent though, that's just

0:52:45.440 --> 0:52:48.080
<v Speaker 1>an ethic. And so that comes though from being a

0:52:48.080 --> 0:52:50.239
<v Speaker 1>normal person and knowing that nothing's given to you and

0:52:50.280 --> 0:52:53.319
<v Speaker 1>not having a safety net. Thank you, America, good night.

0:52:54.120 --> 0:52:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be president one day, that's all that's And

0:52:56.719 --> 0:52:58.200
<v Speaker 1>you can be president too. I don't care what you are.

0:52:58.480 --> 0:53:00.879
<v Speaker 1>I really feel like anybody can be president with this.

0:53:01.320 --> 0:53:04.600
<v Speaker 1>And I don't mean anybody. I mean anybody, because I

0:53:04.680 --> 0:53:06.000
<v Speaker 1>used to think you had to be in the military,

0:53:07.080 --> 0:53:10.840
<v Speaker 1>which would lead you to a position in politics, or

0:53:10.880 --> 0:53:13.680
<v Speaker 1>be an attorney, which will leads you to position in politics. Now,

0:53:13.760 --> 0:53:15.560
<v Speaker 1>thank you. Used to be a person with the message,

0:53:15.640 --> 0:53:19.200
<v Speaker 1>and if you have the right message, you can. I mean,

0:53:19.280 --> 0:53:21.560
<v Speaker 1>we saw it. We just saw it, regardless of you

0:53:21.600 --> 0:53:23.319
<v Speaker 1>agree with it or not. We just that's what we saw.

0:53:24.200 --> 0:53:28.839
<v Speaker 1>So um, thank you old dominions. Shout out. I hope

0:53:28.840 --> 0:53:30.680

<v Speaker 1>in there too. You gonna go behind the scenes. Um.

0:54:21.000 --> 0:54:24.000
<v Speaker 1>That's so I got hit up today about as to

0:54:24.040 --> 0:54:25.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about my book. You can get my book too

0:54:25.600 --> 0:54:27.120
<v Speaker 1>if you want to. This is not a book ploy

0:54:27.120 --> 0:54:29.600
<v Speaker 1>because I am not getting paid it for um, like

0:54:29.640 --> 0:54:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Amazon still has bare bones. And then I guess the

0:54:32.239 --> 0:54:33.640
<v Speaker 1>reason that's on top of my I just signed a

0:54:33.680 --> 0:54:36.080
<v Speaker 1>bunch of them. We had a bunch sent and they're like, hey,

0:54:36.120 --> 0:54:38.240
<v Speaker 1>we just signed them, So I just signed like threading

0:54:38.320 --> 0:54:42.640
<v Speaker 1>them downstairs. So if you'd like to get it, Um,

0:54:42.640 --> 0:54:46.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's a it's slightly better than mediocre. Could

0:54:46.640 --> 0:54:50.759
<v Speaker 1>you ask me, That's what I would say. Sure, it's

0:54:50.800 --> 0:54:55.120
<v Speaker 1>a great because my president I mean whatever, Ah, there

0:54:55.160 --> 0:54:57.040
<v Speaker 1>you go. And but oh yeah, but they hit me

0:54:57.160 --> 0:54:59.239
<v Speaker 1>up again about writing like in the last two days,

0:54:59.280 --> 0:55:02.280
<v Speaker 1>like you ready for thru start writing another like book book,

0:55:03.040 --> 0:55:07.680
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, oh, I can't write that again

0:55:07.800 --> 0:55:10.000
<v Speaker 1>because that's a life story. I need another twenty years

0:55:10.000 --> 0:55:13.799
<v Speaker 1>to finish, because that's not a full story. Um. And

0:55:13.800 --> 0:55:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I was so surprised that it was like a best seller.

0:55:16.280 --> 0:55:18.799
<v Speaker 1>To me, that was incredible, awesome and crazy. And I'm

0:55:18.840 --> 0:55:21.600
<v Speaker 1>just now starting to respect it because if I just didn't,

0:55:22.000 --> 0:55:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I didn't resonate when it first happened. But as I

0:55:24.239 --> 0:55:25.800
<v Speaker 1>look back at it, like I say, I only enjoyed

0:55:25.840 --> 0:55:30.040
<v Speaker 1>seeing things and pictures, I don't enjoy actually doing them. Um.

0:55:30.080 --> 0:55:31.560
<v Speaker 1>So now I'm starting to kind of be cool that

0:55:31.640 --> 0:55:33.040
<v Speaker 1>the book was a success and I can see like

0:55:33.200 --> 0:55:36.040
<v Speaker 1>data that shows and the sales are there. It's like, wow,

0:55:36.080 --> 0:55:38.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm crazy that you buy. But they're like I was like, listen,

0:55:38.840 --> 0:55:40.840
<v Speaker 1>here's what I can do. I you do a book

0:55:40.960 --> 0:55:46.840
<v Speaker 1>of like essays, like stories, but I can't do a

0:55:46.880 --> 0:55:49.240
<v Speaker 1>book about my life anymore. Like you gotta essay about

0:55:49.719 --> 0:55:51.680
<v Speaker 1>saying that my grandma used to say, I can do

0:55:51.680 --> 0:55:53.160
<v Speaker 1>a book about that and how it relates to my life.

0:55:53.160 --> 0:55:55.279
<v Speaker 1>I can do a book on whatever I just talked about.

0:55:55.280 --> 0:55:58.480
<v Speaker 1>There you got a book on how um you can

0:55:58.520 --> 0:56:00.400
<v Speaker 1>be whatever you want to be whatever. I don't think

0:56:00.400 --> 0:56:04.359
<v Speaker 1>we song about that called When I Grow Up. But anyway,

0:56:03.560 --> 0:56:06.279
