I have a little Fisher Price sylophone to 108 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: play it. I think that's why, because I've only ever 109 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: seen you play this acoustic, not with the big electric. 110 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: Whenever we were talking last, you had mentioned to me, 111 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: and I made a note of this, you said, because 112 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: I wanted to bring this up. You came on my 113 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: radio show and you said, get me drunk and the 114 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: hillbilly comes out. I'll tell you what that means on 115 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: the podcast. Oh yeah, Well then I felt I felt 116 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: bad because I was like, oh, you don't drink. It 117 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: was just like a joke. I was like, it has 118 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: nothing to do with anything. I just, um, I've tried 119 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 1: very hard to not lose myself or lose my roots, 120 00:05:54,520 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: but also I like to I like to dictate myself. 121 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: I sometimes find, um, I get real excited or tipsy 122 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, all my words starts slurring together. 123 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: I got it from my grandmama. But what's the hillbelly 124 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: part of it? I just I kind of become a 125 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: little bit of a redneck. Like there's a reason why 126 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: I don't really drink a lot, because it's normally my 127 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: idea of a good time is getting just tipsy enough 128 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: that I just want to go dance, and usually it's 129 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: by myself. And then as soon as I so brought 130 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: from that, I'm like, Okay, I'm fine. I want to 131 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: go get a corn dog and I want to go home, 132 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: and that's like the perfect night. Um that. Yeah, just 133 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: I get a little redneck. I like my southern rock. 134 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: I like to my old rock and roll and stuff, 135 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: and I just I don't know. I'm a Joe diffy girl, 136 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: you know. I they Sammy Kershaws of the World or 137 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: kind of the music. I seem to be drawn to 138 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: a lot, especially when I'm drinking. I was looking at 139 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: your answer story yesterday and it said that you're a single, 140 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: a dog mom and thriving, working towards giving your dog 141 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: the backyard she deserves. Yes, she Um, we have a 142 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: pretty good backyard right now. But I'm just now kind 143 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: of working towards um like a tour bus in which 144 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: she would feel comfortable Tarba streisand has to feel comfortable 145 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: Tarba Streisand yeah, we call her Tarbs for short because 146 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: it's just too much. But she's a Tarbara. Yeah, so 147 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: I was gonna name her Barbara, but she's not a 148 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: barb you know. And then I tried other letters, and 149 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: for some reason he just stuck. I was like tarbes 150 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, we can do tartar beanks, 151 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: tartar sauce, you know, just all the little I love 152 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: to give her weird names. She answers to like ten 153 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: different names. Now that she is definitely a studio sprite. 154 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: She made the whole record with me. She was there 155 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: for every little bit of it. So um, now just 156 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: getting to the point that we can get a tour bus. 157 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: Now that we have the backyard we kind of maybe 158 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: not the backyard she deserves, but a decent backyard. Now 159 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: we just have to get her on the tour bus. 160 00:07:52,480 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: Here is a family tree my daughters video.

It's a very small town. 169 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: Um in south central Georgia area, close to Alabama line. 170 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: And uh Luke Bryant is from Leesburg, Georgia and uh 171 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: about twenty thirty minutes, I guess, um. But anyways, UM, 172 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: his mama, ms Leclair, used to work for the town hall, 173 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: I believe. And my dad is a well driller, so 174 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: he drills majority of the water wells in our part, 175 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: our region of Georgia. And um, anyways, he was drilling 176 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: one for the city of Leesburg and met Ms Leclair 177 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: and I think that he started the conversation and just said, hey, like, 178 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 1: you have a son that made it, I have a 179 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,319 Speaker 1: daughter that's trying real hard. Um, I just wanted to 180 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: see if you had any advice. And Ms Leclair was like, 181 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: get her to come see me. And so my dad 182 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: came home. I think I was sixteen, seventeen years old, 183 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: and uh anyways told me I have to go see 184 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: miss Leclair. So I put on my fancies high hills 185 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: because for some reason that made me feel way more adult. 186 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 1: And uh I walked in into the town hall of 187 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: city of Leesburg and she's sitting there and she just 188 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: looked up at me, and the only thing she said 189 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: to me was you're taller than I expected. And I 190 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: was just like, Hi, Hi, Um, I'm Kayleie Hannock, I'm 191 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: you know, you're Luke Brown's mom. This is the CD 192 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: I was supposed to bring to you. It's a burnt 193 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: CD that I wrote like in sharpie, all the titles 194 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: of these songs I'd written on and UM. Anyway, she 195 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: was like, well, let's go outside. I need to smoke 196 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: a cigarette. So we leaned against the town hall. Um, 197 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: and she smoked a cigarette. We watched the peanut trucks 198 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: passed by, and UM, yeah, that was really about it, 199 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: very short, very to the point. You know. No, I 200 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: just gave her, just gave her the CD because she 201 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: had heard, um, I played in that area a lot, 202 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: and she was like, I've heard of you, like i've 203 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: heard of you playing, you know, but I've never seen you, 204 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: So just give me the CD. And a few weeks later, 205 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: it was on a day that I Bobby I there's 206 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: probably like five times in my life I've actually been mad, 207 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: like really mad, and um that day was randomly a 208 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: day that I just felt frustrated at the world.

And he's like, I 227 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: think you need to moved to Nashville, and UM, I said, well, Luke, 228 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do what you're doing. What you did 229 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: he went to Georgia Southern. You built a fan base, 230 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: and then when you went to Nashville, they really heard 231 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: you because you had your people behind you. I'm trying 232 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: to build my fan base. And I said, I don't 233 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: know if I'm ready to go yet. I don't feel 234 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: like my heart's ready to go yet. And um, the time, 235 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: I had just turned seventeen, I think, um. But he 236 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: was like, I don't know if you're really smart or 237 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: really stupid and not listen to me, but I guess 238 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: listen to your gut. I just I think you could 239 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: do this. I think you need to move to Nashville. 240 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: So I was like okay, and um, you know, we 241 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: stopped talking. Uh, we ended the conversation, and then he 242 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: called right back and he goes, I need to talk 243 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: to your dad. So I to go in and get 244 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: my dad off eBay and be like, hey, um, Luke, 245 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: Brian's on the phone for you, and uh yeah, he 246 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: talked to him, and Luke was just like Mr Hammock. 247 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: I just wanted to apologize because I just told your 248 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: underaged daughter that she needs to move four dred miles 249 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: away from home. Um, but I'm just I just said 250 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: that because I think she could do it, and I 251 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: think she needs to do it. And I'm so grateful 252 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: for all the people that have told my parents like, 253 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: she can make it. She could really make it because 254 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: that encouragement and that support from my home base, you know, 255 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: in my family that really I'm in the world to 256 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: me and um, just help me kind of on this 257 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: uphill battle. So Luke doing that, it really meant it 258 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: meant a lot to me. And then when I was 259 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: in between record deals, UM and I was choosing, he 260 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: called and he's like, isn't Universal great? Universal is a 261 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: great place? And I was like, who puts you up 262 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: to this? But um, it was funny to actually get 263 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: to talk to him again. It's a full circle. Did 264 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: you save his number after he called you the first time? 265 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: Just in case? Like you pushed save and Luke and 266 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: then okay, I know a smart person probably would have. 267 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: But Bobby, I just he told me to tell him 268 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: when he when I got to town, and uh, He's like, 269 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: why didn't you tell me when you go to town? 270 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: And my thought is like, no, Like, when you need 271 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: to hear of me, you will. I'm not. I don't 272 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: like asking people for favors. I don't like I don't 273 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: like people thinking that I want something from them. Um, 274 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: So I just never reached out. I was like, when 275 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: he needs to know who I am, he will like 276 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: he'll hear my name and go I think that's that girl. 277 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: So um. That may have really prolonged this journey, but 278 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: it all happened the way it should and I feel 279 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: like it happened organically. So um yeah, I do have 280 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: his number now though, and I have it saved in 281 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: like all cats. Luke Brian, how long until at the 282 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: end of that conversation until you packed up a move 283 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: to Nashville, It's about two years. I just felt something 284 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: in me that I had to prove myself in a 285 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: small town before I went to the big town and 286 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: tried to say like, hey, look at me, like listen 287 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: to my song. No, like I needed to pay my dues. 288 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: And I think you gotta you gotta start that at 289 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: your hometown. You gotta make sure the people around you 290 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: see something before you go and you try to get 291 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: more attention in a bigger city. So playing small bars, 292 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: clubs around ye, Georgia, Alabama, Like where are you moving?

I don't know why, 295 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: but um, that was usually where I stayed, and I 296 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: played the same place as over and over and over 297 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: again because I knew I could pull a big crowd 298 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: and they go, yeah, come in on Friday night, like, yeah, 299 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: we need a good sell at night.

You're going to 345 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: stay in the back of your car for a couple 346 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: of weeks A few days, No, I had I was 347 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: going to stay in a motel and um, I had 348 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: told the boyfriend, the guy that I was dating at 349 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: the time, in November back home because I had been 350 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: commuting for a year eighteen and nineteen. I've been commuting. Um, 351 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: I drive up every Sunday night, and then I would 352 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: write Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, maybe Thursday if I could book it, 353 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: and then I would drive back home so that I 354 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: could been the weekend with him in my family and 355 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: be up there. And anyways, I'm hopeless romantic, I especially 356 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: at the time, and I was like it'll work. Love 357 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: knows no bounds. Um, so I was making that work. 358 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: But it finally just got to the point I was like, 359 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: I have to go. Like I've let one man tell 360 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: me that he needed me so badly and then hurt me. 361 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: I I need to actually bet on the one thing 362 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: that's never hurt me. And that was the dream versus love. 363 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: And I was like I need to go. And um, anyways, 364 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 1: my boyfriend there was like, well, I'm not doing long 365 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: distance and I was like, Okay, this sucks, but all right, 366 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: So I moved up. It was December one, two thousand thirteen. Um. 367 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: I was heartbroken. I didn't know anyone. And when I 368 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: got to the motel, the sun was going down and 369 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: it was a thirty dollar at night motel over in Antioch, 370 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: and um, it was what I out afford. And it 371 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: just it just wasn't where a young girl needs to 372 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:10,239 Speaker 1: stay by herself. Um it was just not good. It 373 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: didn't seem safe. I don't know how else to say it. 374 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: And UM, I just I remember laying in that bed 375 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: and I was like, I can't do this. I can't 376 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: stay here.

Hey, I'm be sleeping on my car 384 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: because it's like the security guy because it seems like 385 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:38,959 Speaker 1: they'd kick you out of the parking lot if they 386 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: knew you were sleeping there. No one messed with me 387 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: like that was the thing. I'm like, praise God for 388 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: a target. Um, no one messed with me.

I go back to the motel, 390 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: So whenever I needed a shower, it was only for 391 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: a few weeks and then, um, whenever I needed a shower, 392 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: I'd just go back. So you would stay in your 393 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: car and then occasionally you go and paid the nights. Yeah, 394 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 1: pay and clean yourself up. Yeah. It wasn't. It wasn't 395 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: very glorious.

Wait, 444 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: oh really yeah?

It was another way for us 452 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: to make money because we get um tips there. We 453 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: don't usually get a very big basse pay. Bass pay 454 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: was like the bar would give you twenty five dollars 455 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 1: for a four hour set and the rest is tips. 456 00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: So um.

Thanks, And 461 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: I just turned around and walked off. And of course 462 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 1: as I turned around, I bumped into this older man 463 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: with a teenage mutant into turtle shirt on, a flannel 464 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: shirt over that, a big white beard and beanie on, 465 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: and he's like, well, where do you get paid to sing? 466 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: And it was Greg Humphrey.

And he was like, okay, like where do 472 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: you play?

Put it in this bucket and 499 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: and um, yeah, he looked down in the bucket and 500 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: he looked at me, and they looked down on the 501 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: bucket again and shook it some and he said he 502 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 1: seemed good and you talk slow people like that, you 503 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: still need a job.

And I was 509 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: like okay, and they didn't like I. I went back 510 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,199 Speaker 1: and forth, and when I finally turned twenty one and 511 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: they thought I was turning twenty five, that was when 512 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 1: I finally told everyone so. And that kind of became 513 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: your place for a bit. Yeah, it was. Um. It 514 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: was where the creators and the singers and the musicians 515 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: that needed to pay their bills but didn't knowwhere else 516 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: to do that, you know, doing what we do.

And I always come in. 559 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: It's always cool to see because there are a couple 560 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: of a couple of Christiansen's one of them too.

I always wonder 563 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: did you ever? We ever playing? And like an artist 564 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: would come in or somebody the kind of famous would 565 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: come in and you would go, oh manor or a 566 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 1: record guy and they weren't really looking. They just happened 567 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: to be in that bar. Oh man. There. Every now 568 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 1: and then there'd be someone like a publisher or something 569 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: that I knew, and I was like, oh my god, 570 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: my god, don't judge me, like I can. I can 571 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: write real sincere songs. All right, here's redneck woman way. 572 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,959 Speaker 1: So you were like, oh, don't judge me, instead of like, oh, 573 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: I have a time a second to shine in front 574 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 1: of these people. Yeah, because the whole time, what I was, 575 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: the reason I thought they would judge me was I 576 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: wanted to be a songwriter. You know. It wasn't really 577 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 1: about being the artist. It was about I want to 578 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: tell this story. And what I realized after signing it 579 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: Universal Publishing was a lot of my songs and things 580 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: I say no one wants to say at that way, 581 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: you know. Um, so I knew that I had to 582 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: be the artist to put it out just to get 583 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: those stories where I wanted them, and that was in 584 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: the public. So I don't know, I just I would 585 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: have rather been at a right around and just been 586 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: me and a guitar and go, okay, let me take 587 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: you down a memory lane, you know, instead of like, 588 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: here's one more song about drinking. He and Yeah, your 589 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: accents are funny too. She has a different accent for 590 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: every story. I sometimes sometimes she's a leprechn and you 591 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 1: know I've been wondering when you pick it up. Yeah, 592 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: that's kind. I'm assuming that's irish. I don't really. Yeah, 593 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: it's really bad once you pointed out what's your living 594 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: situation turned into? Because you're for a bit you're sleeping 595 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: a target. But then you get a job and you're 596 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: actually able to make money. Do you find an apartment? Yep? 597 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: I found a little um sublet apartment that I leased. 598 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: It was a basement apartment in Bellevue, and I killed 599 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: every single house plant I ever bought because there wasn't 600 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: enough sunlight base. Yes, but the thing is, actually, looking 601 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: back on it now, if there was one thing I 602 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: could say to that girl, like just enjoy it, because 603 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: I cannot tell you the last time I just had 604 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: a day off to myself with a good friend there 605 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: and absolutely nothing to do. Because there is a sense 606 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: of freedom and this pureness of happiness there that you 607 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,239 Speaker 1: can find in that kind of dark basement apartment if 608 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: you have a good friend with you. And um, I 609 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: feel like now life is just so busy that you 610 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: don't get time to really overthink, You don't get time 611 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: to wonder anymore. You know it's just go, go go. 612 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: I bet you're like that. Um, but yeah, there's something 613 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: about that little basement apartment. Though it killed all my 614 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: house plants, they had good moments. You know. We were poor, 615 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: so we'd go to Sonic Wednesdays. There's fifty cent corn dogs. Uh. 616 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: We'd spend our nights off at McKay's, the used book store, 617 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: and if I was lonely, I would just go up 618 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: there on a Friday night. I went almost every single 619 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: Friday night, and I would find a book that I 620 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: wanted to read, and then I just sit down in 621 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,479 Speaker 1: aisle and watch people and like, you can't imagine how 622 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: many people come to a used bookstore on a Friday night, 623 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: and I, Um, i'd start writing songs about them or 624 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: just basking in the company of knowing the world still 625 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: spinning around me. Though I feel like I'm you know, 626 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: isolated in that basement apartment. But then I'd go to 627 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: work and I'd see a plethora of people and personalities 628 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: and then I'd go hide away in my little basement 629 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: dungeon apartment and write songs about it. It's funny you 630 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: mentioned because I think back to it when I was 631 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: in college living in this really rotten apartment, and how 632 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: much fun that I had because the whole world was 633 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: still kind of in front of me. When the whole 634 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: world is still out there, even though you're super broke, 635 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: you go eventually, I'm going to figure this out, and 636 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: there's a sense of yeah, it's a struggle now, but 637 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: I have so much space, have so much it's it's 638 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: such an empty canvas for me to create over the 639 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: years that it is fun. But I struggle with that 640 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: if I could just tell that person to just have 641 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: fun because I was having trouble getting lunch meat, it's 642 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: hard to have fun whenever you can't really get bologny 643 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: and cheese, and you just gotta get bologny. So it's 644 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: kind of it's a weird mix. It's a weird mix 645 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: of struggle. But when I look back, it was super 646 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: pure like that. That the the amount of man, I'm 647 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: eventually going to figure this out that was inside of 648 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: me was I was full of it and not like 649 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: I'm full of crap now. But I just knew it 650 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: was gonna I know how it's gonna work out. But 651 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: if I didn't think it's gonna work out, I wouldn't 652 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: stay doing it. Like if I ever thought I'm not 653 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: gonna do it, I would have just I would have 654 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: done something else. And I'm assuming that's the same with you. 655 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: As much of a struggle as it was, you had 656 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: to believe in yourself so much because there's an ego 657 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: involved in what we do. Any time you create something 658 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: and you go I think what I'm doing is good 659 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: enough that people will either pay for it or they'll 660 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: sit to it and listen to an advertisement because I'm 661 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: worth it. On the other side of it, there is 662 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: an ego, sometimes healthy, sometimes not. And with that being said, 663 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: like you had to be in this basement going will 664 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: not just get my shot, or when I take these 665 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: couple more steps, like people are gonna love what I 666 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: have to say. I mean that was the thing, right, Yeah, 667 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: I had, um I've realized for me, like I get 668 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: intense envy and I used to think, Um, I do 669 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: you know what your angiogram is? Eight? Defiant one and 670 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: the broken eight and then a one whatever the second 671 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: one is. Yeah, wow, Okay, I was thinking for some reason, 672 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: I was thinking three with a four wing. But I 673 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm I've taken that test. Listen, I'm not 674 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: a big belief. Sure, it's okay, you don't have to believe. 675 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: I don't not believe. I won't start talking about horsecode. 676 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: You can, you can't. I don't not believe. I just 677 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 1: don't believe. I get it. Meaning if you believe, and 678 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: it's awesome for you, and I'm not gonna hate on 679 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: you for it, because there's no way I can prove 680 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: you wrong. Well, what I've I didn't really believe it 681 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: until I read this book called Sacred Indiogram and it 682 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: goes in depth, like with the numbers, and all it 683 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: did was it showed a little clarity for me and 684 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: I got something out of it. But um, it talked 685 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: about how the four the individualist my number. It said 686 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: that my weakness was envy, and I was like, no, 687 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: I don't really like I don't get envious of I'm 688 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: single as they come, but I don't get envious of relationships. 689 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: I I'm not the skinny tan beauty you know. I 690 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: was like, but I don't get envious of that. Like 691 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: there's moments and I was like, I don't get envious 692 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: of other people in their situations. But then I went 693 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: to an Eric Church concert and I was sick the 694 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: entire time, just sick to my stomach watching someone else 695 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: do what I wanted to do so badly, and I 696 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: wasn't able to so um for years. I am finally 697 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: to the point now that I can watch music documentaries. 698 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 1: So now it's like Holai watch um because I couldn't 699 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: for years watch that and listen to artists and musicians 700 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: and writers talk about how they crafted their skill and 701 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: stuff because I felt so unworthy of even knowing anything 702 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: about it, and I felt so small, and I was 703 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,760 Speaker 1: envious of they're really doing it, you know, they're getting 704 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: to create something put it out into the world. And uh, 705 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: now I can finally go to a concert and enjoy 706 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: myself because I get to be on a stage and 707 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: I have that. I literally have that little soapbox too, 708 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,479 Speaker 1: put my word out on and um. For a while, though, yeah, 709 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: it was very envious of anyone living their dream because 710 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: I was dark. I didn't have anything to kind of 711 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: fill that void. I was still trying to figure out 712 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: who I was, and I had to go through that. 713 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,399 Speaker 1: It's funny how we look at other people and they 714 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 1: give us different inspirations and by the people and I 715 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,479 Speaker 1: individual people give us different feelings. But for you mentioned envy. 716 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: For me, it's all it's competition. Like I see people 717 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: and I go, oh, well they had it easier than 718 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: I did, and I'm about to be better than they are. 719 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: And and I think a lot a lot of it's 720 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 1: how I grew up and I was always the small, 721 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: poor kid who got picked on. So every everything in 722 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: life with a competition. To me, I had to prove 723 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: myself all this that you have to prove yourself and 724 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,760 Speaker 1: unhealthily to like, you know, I get it, I totally 725 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: get it. I feel a little snippets of that. I'm 726 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: not proud of it. So that's not where you going this. 727 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: But you know, I think a lot of how we 728 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: were wired ends up being on how we treat ourselves 729 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: and treat others, you know, later in life. And I 730 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: wonder where that comes from with you where you where 731 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: you said the people and you're just still because for 732 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: me it's not healthy sometimes where I'm just like, oh, okay, 733 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,479 Speaker 1: you want to do you think you're good, I'm about 734 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: to be the best radio person in the history of 735 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: the world, and give me a minute. And never I'm 736 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 1: jealous where you are. But it's about to be I'm 737 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: about to beat you at where are you? I couldn't. 738 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: I'm telling you. For the first ten years of my 739 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 1: career and I started on I seventeen, every show I 740 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 1: was up against, I hated them, didn't you meet them? 741 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: Hated their guts. I didn't if the Pope was on 742 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 1: one of one point three Pope FM starr the Pope, 743 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: I was like, I hate him, it's going to be 744 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: dope owner. Now it's different. Now I have a platform 745 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: where there really isn't anyone who is based on who 746 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: I'm talking to a contemporary So I'm not really competing 747 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 1: with people now, and I'm competing with YouTube. I'm competing 748 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 1: with just the world. You're just trying to get anybody's attention. 749 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: It's impossible, like anyone's attention anymore because there are so 750 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: many things. But for me, that's where mine comes from. 751 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 1: Where do you think yours comes from? I don't really know. 752 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: I think it's because as a kid. As a kid, 753 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: I had two older siblings that we had already kind 754 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 1: of moved on and went to high school or college 755 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: by the time I came about my mom and went 756 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: back to school, and my dad just worked really hard 757 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: so I had a lot of time to myself. UM. 758 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: I was alone a lot. I felt like, UM, but 759 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: I feel like that's exactly what made me me and 760 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: it's where my imagination came from. You know. I had 761 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,720 Speaker 1: to be alone. I had to be lonely and board 762 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: for my brain to create what it needed to create, UM, 763 00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 1: so that I can create what I create now. But 764 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: there was moments of like I just remember, like watching 765 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: like Stevie Nicks. There'd be a rerun of her and 766 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: some concert with Fleetwood Mac and I'd just be like, God, 767 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 1: I just want that, I just want that. I would 768 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: watch um one of the first things I ever bought. 769 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,320 Speaker 1: Did you ever buy anything from the TV in your life? 770 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: Like that? You call in and it's like three orders 771 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: of five shipping and handling. That's a funny impression, Amy, 772 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: my friend my coast did all the time. I never 773 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 1: buy I take that back.

I gotta tell you, 776 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: the only thing I had a little burn marks on. 777 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: He turned it out.

Gosh, she said, you new women sometimes 819 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: like just I just I feel like he was one 820 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,839 Speaker 1: of those in depth lyrics this that you'd listen over 821 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 1: and over, and then you'd pick up some little way 822 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: that he'd say something and you're like, that's what he 823 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: meant by it. He was one of those that I 824 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 1: could die then too, and listen to over and over 825 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 1: and over again and get something just a little different 826 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 1: or a little humor, let some tongue in cheek in there. Um, 827 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,359 Speaker 1: I discovered something so nuanced. You'd always hear a little 828 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 1: other because I also listen to a lot of Jim. 829 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: My mom is a big Jim Crowchy fan, and she 830 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: was the funny I wrote on my first book. Whenever 831 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: my mom died, I was at her funeral. I was 832 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: speaking at her funeral, and I was struggling with talking, 833 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:33,840 Speaker 1: and I had to talk to my mom's funeral and 834 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,840 Speaker 1: she died in her forties and so but I remember, 835 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 1: as she would as I was talking, and I was 836 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: crying my face off. Somebody's cell phone rings and it's 837 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,439 Speaker 1: a freaking Jim Crowchy ring tone. That was her smill 838 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: in it. I don't know what it was, but that's 839 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: what I said. So, yeah, and this came by, and 840 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 1: so I think about this bad, bad role around the 841 00:40:55,560 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: bat ist fan in the whole damn town. Yeah, I love. 842 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: He was one of those like who else can write 843 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:14,280 Speaker 1: about a fight? A bar fight? And it's three minutes 844 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: of like this in depth story where I'm just sitting 845 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: there like, okay, well what happened to him? You know, 846 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: Like there's one line that he says, uh, he came 847 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: up from the ground looking like a jigsaw puzzle with 848 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: a couple of pieces gone, And I'm like, oh my gosh. 849 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: Like his way of describing things was beautiful. My mom 850 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: loved James Taylor. Um. She loves anything like the coffee 851 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 1: House Channel. Now, that's kind of her vibe. She loves 852 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: songwriters and storytellers. It's kind of my vibe too. If 853 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: I have to pick a vibe, that's probably my vibe too. 854 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: It's just mellow and nice, easy going. I like sad songs. 855 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: I guess it's probably I really like sad. Do you 856 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 1: feel like to bring yourself to Catharsis or what do 857 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,479 Speaker 1: you get out of it? You know, I don't feel 858 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: happiness often, but I can feel sadness. You like the 859 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: feeling of it? Then I like to feel anything, dude, 860 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,959 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. I just like to feel something because 861 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 1: I struggle with with that and I don't do well 862 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: with happiness because I feel like it's always going to 863 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: go away. It's so fleeting that it's gone, so I 864 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: don't feel I don't feel there's a vulnerability and feeling 865 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 1: happy that I don't do well with sadness. Okay, it's 866 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: like a warm blanket. I totally get it. I seem 867 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: to kind of be drawn towards the melancholy um side 868 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 1: of life. I don't know why, but that's where I 869 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 1: felt good. And I realized the older I got that 870 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: I either want to be up or I want to 871 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: be down. I don't hate the middle. You know. Um, 872 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 1: there's actually a girl I went to high school with 873 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 1: that Um. She was one of those people that every 874 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: single day she felt the exact same like whether she 875 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 1: was happy, whether she was sad, whether her boyfriend broke up, 876 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,439 Speaker 1: whether she was the exact same person every single day. 877 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 1: And I am the opposite. I'm normally like a little 878 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: chipmunk on crack most days, and then when I'm sad, 879 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: it's like you may not be able to get me 880 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 1: out of the house, and it's like a few days 881 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 1: a year that it's like that bad, and I just 882 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 1: have to respect myself and let myself kind of just 883 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: dive into my pity party, you know, and I'm fine 884 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 1: the next day normally, And uh, what I kind of 885 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,280 Speaker 1: realized because I always wondered, like, how is Lindsay so happy? 886 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 1: Why was she so happy? Like just always so mellow, 887 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 1: you know, And I was almost envious of that because 888 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: I couldn't feel that just a normal like it was 889 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,320 Speaker 1: either I was super super happy or was really really sad. 890 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: And I feel like a lot of creative people are 891 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 1: this way. But um, there was a see saw in 892 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: our backyard that finally I remember one day sitting out 893 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,240 Speaker 1: in the backyard and looking at it, and I realized 894 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: kind of what it was. It was like if if 895 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 1: we were standing on that seesaw, Lindsey was somewhere in 896 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: the middle, so the up and down wasn't really much, 897 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:55,800 Speaker 1: and I am some little overweight ten year old flinging 898 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: her body on the farthest reaches of it, you know. 899 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 1: So I was either like just rocketed into the sky 900 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 1: emotionally or I was flat on my button the dirt. 901 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: And um, I think the minute I kind of learned 902 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: how to embrace that and just I don't know, be 903 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: okay with that, be okay with crying and being statically 904 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 1: happy to that's what you are. And I know, and 905 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:21,319 Speaker 1: I've done a lot of work on myself, and I said, 906 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: I don't. I far fewer times am I sitting in 907 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,839 Speaker 1: my room listening to If I Can Only Fly from 908 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: Merle Haggard.

And I was talking to a friend 913 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: pretty recently and she's a comedian, and she was she's 914 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: editing her special, She's with She's with the other she 915 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: just did a Netflix special and she was like, I 916 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,439 Speaker 1: know that I'm going to break down four or five times. 917 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hate myself as I'm breaking down every single time. 918 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, if you know that you're gonna 919 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 1: break down four or five times, why don't you give 920 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 1: yourself four or five pup wants to break down and 921 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 1: know that as you're doing it each time, this is you, 922 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 1: and you're okay with you, and this is the expectation 923 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: you have of yourself.

And it's not that we don't enjoy it. 982 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,359 Speaker 1: Like I love when I'm able to make connections and 983 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: I can go to bed knowing that I made someone 984 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 1: smile today, Like sometimes that is what I need. I 985 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,240 Speaker 1: struggle with darkness in my life, and that is something 986 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 1: that I clean to, is to know that I have 987 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 1: helped someone or done good by someone. Um, even if 988 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,239 Speaker 1: it's just someone singing along to one song, you know, 989 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 1: and smiling in the crowd, but it's it's really tiring. 990 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: I have become a nap master.

I can't talk. Um, Maybe 1062 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: I've drank too much coffee now. My tongue is moving 1063 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,319 Speaker 1: faster than my brain is. It's funny to hear you 1064 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 1: talk about a lot of these older artists because I 1065 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: was listening to a lot of classic rock when I 1066 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 1: was a kid, too, And I have a lot of 1067 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,160 Speaker 1: um music that I loved was before when I was born, right, 1068 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 1: And you're you're bringing up all these artists too, and 1069 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:45,760 Speaker 1: some Mi Coup was in recently. We were talking about 1070 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 1: old music. Yeah, because we talked. She talked about old 1071 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 1: artists and cocono ol, and I was like, preach girl preach. 1072 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 1: I think part of where we come from being the South, 1073 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 1: that there's there's so many classic rock radio stations and 1074 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 1: classic country stations that we grow up and that's just 1075 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:11,560 Speaker 1: more of a part of us than in other parts 1076 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:15,680 Speaker 1: of the United States. Even like I knew every CCR 1077 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 1: song that you could buy, Like I love Credence, I 1078 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 1: loved all these I loved Zeppelin, I loved David Bowie, 1079 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,839 Speaker 1: I love Jim crow Chick. All this stuff was because 1080 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:26,880 Speaker 1: of all the classic rock radio that was everywhere. They 1081 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: were like three classic rock stations in Lotle Rock and 1082 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: Hot Springs and so. And it's funny whenever you guys, 1083 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,839 Speaker 1: because you grew up in Texas and you grew up 1084 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 1: in Georgia, and I think that's a big part of 1085 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,320 Speaker 1: why we have all these years and years of musical influence. 1086 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: Also because where we grew up, we weren't the most 1087 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,800 Speaker 1: technologically advanced either. It was burnt CDs passed down for 1088 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 1: men and yeah, and even pause play record cassettes you 1089 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 1: you would tape off the radio. Plase, guy, I don't 1090 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:57,399 Speaker 1: want to DJ talk over the front of the song 1091 00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:58,920 Speaker 1: because then I gotta listen to that every time. I 1092 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,399 Speaker 1: want to hear baby got back. You know that would happen. So, yeah, 1093 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 1: it's funny to hear you're talking. Let's do this, then 1094 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 1: let's do And this is not you're not married to this. 1095 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: But if you were going to have a mount Rushmore 1096 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 1: of your five favorite artists of all time, and I 1097 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 1: can go, I'll do it along with you, so it 1098 00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: gives your time to think. So because I haven't done 1099 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: amount Rushmore either, but five favorite artists. And if you 1100 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 1: pick a band, that's fine. The lead singer of the 1101 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 1: band just goes up and represents the whole band. Okay, 1102 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: So this is a mount Rushmore for just me personally, 1103 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 1: or do I have to pick it for like just you? 1104 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 1: It's only you, your heart, your life, you okay, A 1105 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 1: the mount Rushmore of my heart, Bowie would be Washington.

Well I knew I was gonna 1299 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:10,880 Speaker 1: look stupid, so I was like, you just have to 1300 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 1: own it, you know what I mean? Like if Bill 1301 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 1: Murray walked around and did all the things he did 1302 01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, I'm so sorry I did that, 1303 01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be funny or like cool. But he just 1304 01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:24,400 Speaker 1: does all these weirdly awkward things so confidently. Have you 1305 01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 1: seen the Bill Murray documentary' Oh you'd love it. It's 1306 01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:30,920 Speaker 1: I forget what it's. You know what's called. I don't know. 1307 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 1: You haven't seen it. It's about all the weird things 1308 01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:37,360 Speaker 1: he does and people. It's on Netflix, and so it's 1309 01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:39,400 Speaker 1: a documentary this guy made. He's trying to find him 1310 01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: because you can't find Bill Murray. Yeah, he has one 1311 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:44,680 Speaker 1: one phone and he's always happen and he sometimes doesn't answer. 1312 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,840 Speaker 1: You have to leave number, and even big directors, everyone 1313 01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 1: can only call that phone. I think it's called finding 1314 01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 1: Bill Murray Stories. Oh my gosh, it's so I'm gonna 1315 01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 1: go get that from my flight tonight. Why are you 1316 01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 1: gonna watch your phone?

And I was 1323 01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:17,800 Speaker 1: watching our video, our dance video, because I was the 1324 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,120 Speaker 1: guy who shot it at a great job. Yeah, and 1325 01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 1: I had to take it off my phone up on 1326 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 1: my computer because I just have never had good vision. 1327 01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:27,320 Speaker 1: I just I live with it.

And now it's like I'll 1330 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:36,600 Speaker 1: start reading. I love reading, but it's like the words 1331 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 1: are getting smaller every year the passes, and now I 1332 01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 1: finally have reading glasses and I have to have them. Sometimes. 1333 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,720 Speaker 1: You do talk about your vision in Pilgrims voice, though, 1334 01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:47,840 Speaker 1: so I like that.
