1 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: So I wanted to do this bobbycast about being black 2 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,239 Speaker 1: bald and celebrities that have been either kicked out of 3 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: places or black bald from things, because I do think 4 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: that's what's happened to me. Now, I don't have official paperwork, 5 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: I don't have a signed letter. There's been no big 6 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 1: public announcement about this, but in my opinion, and that 7 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: opinion is based on some facts, some vibes, some people 8 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: that started suddenly pretending like I didn't exist, I do 9 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: believe that I've been black bald from Dancing with the Stars. 10 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: This trophy right here, I'm the former champ. After I 11 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: won the Mirror Ball. I guess they decided there's a 12 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: do not invite back list and I'm on it. So 13 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: I don't think it really even bothered me because I 14 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: didn't notice it. Therefore I never acknowledged it until somebody 15 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: that works within the organization was like, hey, yeah, you 16 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: don't get invited back, and I don't really know why. 17 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: So I don't get invited back to the finales. I 18 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: don't get invited to even stand in the crowd awkwardly 19 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: and clap in sequence like some of the people do, 20 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: and some of my friends that have been on the 21 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: show do get invited back. They haven't even won the show. 22 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: I have been back two times, and that was because 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 1: I had a friend on the show, and that's because 24 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: I called them and said, hey, I'm coming back, and 25 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: so look, I get it just on this show specifically, 26 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: and I do have the mirror ball. If you're watching 27 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: this on YouTube, right here beside me, just so you know, 28 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: I'm not lying. I was the greatest dance champion ever. 29 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: But I was not a great dancer. I was a 30 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: great vote getter, and maybe that messed up their whole system. 31 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: In fact, it did because they changed the rules the 32 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: season right after I left to make sure that good 33 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: people wouldn't get kicked off the show. But I do 34 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: feel a that I loved my time on the show. 35 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: It was awesome. I do feel like I was the 36 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: least difficult person to work with on the show. I 37 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: think generally I'm a very easy person to work with. 38 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: I mean, on that show, I was gone half the time. 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: I was either training in Nashville and the show shoots 40 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: in LA and I would get back in time to 41 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: do the show, or I was on the road on 42 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,239 Speaker 1: the weekends because the show shot on Monday, and I 43 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: would tour and do stand up Friday night and Saturday 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: night and get back to Los Angeles. I mean my 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: partner Sharna listen. I don't know why, but she wasn't 46 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: even on the show for years after we won. I 47 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: think this is the first year she finally gets to 48 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: go back. So if you've ever been politely ghosted by 49 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: Ballroom Dance, I know your pain, because I do feel 50 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: like I've been black bald from Dancing with the Stars. 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: But this episode isn't all about that, but it's kind 52 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: of what inspired me to do this episode. So today 53 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: we're diving into some of the other famous people who've 54 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: been banned or booted or black baled or just kicked out, 55 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: or however you want to describe it. Because if I'm 56 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: going down, I'm going down with the lead company, and 57 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: let's start. I think I have eleven of these. It's 58 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: a weird number. Have oddly numbered list all the time. 59 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: At number eleven, Shinead O'Connor. The date was October third, 60 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety two. Shnead O'Connor performed Bob Marley's War on 61 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live. Now that's not a song that I 62 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: know super well. I know, don't worry bad a thing. 63 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: I know that one. I know three Little Birds? Is 64 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: that the same song I was just singing. 65 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: No. 66 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: So she's performing and it's an a cappella performance, and 67 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: at the end of her performance, she holds up a 68 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: picture of Pope John Paul the Second and she rips 69 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: it in half on live television. I was not watching 70 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: when she did this, but I've seen the clip a 71 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: bunch of times. In nineteen ninety two, I was twelve. 72 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: I don't think I knew anything one about Bob Marley 73 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: or really Shnead O'Connor, and I think I was just 74 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: now getting into SNL. And also, if you didn't watch 75 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: it live, you kind of didn't see it. Back then, 76 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't like now where everything lives online. But she 77 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: rips that picture in half and says, fight the real enemy, 78 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: and what she was doing was protesting child abuse in 79 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: the Catholic Church. This is years before the scandals that 80 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: we know now were widely publicized, so NBC was crushed 81 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: with complaints. Lauren Michaels banned her from returning to Saturday 82 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: Night Live, and that pretty much derailed her US career. 83 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: Now she was seen as being ahead of her time 84 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: because years later, you know what happens, all that kind 85 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: of comes out about all those priests that were touching kids. Yeah, 86 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened, exactly what she was talking about. 87 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: She rips the picture and says, no, let's not let 88 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: this happen. But she was kicked off and she ultimately 89 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: lost her career because of it. I think you would 90 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: know her from one song, Nothing Compares to You. There's 91 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: actually a Prince song that she sang and made a 92 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: massive hit, but that was it. She was kicked off 93 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: SNL and basically didn't have a chance to be a 94 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: pop star in America. Next up, and we can do 95 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: SNL again. As Martin Lawrence nineteen ninety four, he was 96 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: hosting SNL, he goes off script in his monologu and 97 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: it's very graphic, and it was an extended rant about 98 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: women's hygiene, specifically vaginal oder you know, and in the nineties, 99 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: I mean even today on SNL, you'd be like, what's 100 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: even happening there? In the nineties even weirder because nobody 101 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: did that. NBC obviously freaked out. They cut the monologue 102 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: from their reruns and they put them on an unofficial blacklist, 103 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,799 Speaker 1: and he didn't return to the show for over twenty years. 104 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: The incident became legendary because again, here's SNL again telling 105 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: somebody else you can't come on. But it also felt 106 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 1: like Martin Lawrence was testing how far he could go, 107 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: and he found the line. I've done that a few 108 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: times where you're like, I'm wonder and then you find 109 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: the line real quick. Another time that I was kicked 110 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: out of somewhere was it's probably early two thousands. I 111 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: went to Texas State University to speak to a class 112 00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: about radio and television broadcasting. And I went specifically into 113 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: the radio class and there's probably about thirty kids there, 114 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: and there were all ask some questions, and I remember 115 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: saying to them, Hey, look, if you're in college just 116 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: to study radio, you're wasting your time. Like either get 117 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: started working for real, Like if this is what you 118 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: want to do, get started working for real, because you 119 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: don't need college. But if you're in college, that's great. 120 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: I didn't, you know, I didn't know anybody, None of 121 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: my family went to college. I wanted to be the 122 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: first person to graduate college. And if you're in college 123 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: for that reason, that's awesome, but find a different thing 124 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: to get your degree in. So I go on, I 125 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: give this speech, and I felt like, that's pretty real 126 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: with them, and I was like, if you're studying radio, 127 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: don't study radio. Get that in the real world. But 128 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: if you want to stay in college, learn something else. 129 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: That can be something you can fall back on. About 130 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: a week later, I got a letter in the mail, 131 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: the actual physical mail sent to the radio station, saying 132 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: I was never invited back to speak at Texas State University. 133 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: Pretty much Martin Lawrence in the Vaginal Odor. That's very 134 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 1: very similar things there. Elvis Presley was censored on the 135 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: at SULVN show Elvis performed in nineteen fifty six. You've 136 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: probably seeing the clips. CBS refused to show him from 137 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: the waist down because his hips was basically sex on 138 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: black and white television vulgar. I mean, that's what they said, 139 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: like the TV guide remember when that was the thing. 140 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: But Ed Sullivan had said he was not gonna book 141 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: Elvis at all, but he did want the ratings. And 142 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: so Elvis comes on dances, they don't show below his hips. 143 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: He comes on again, They're like, dude, you got to 144 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: chill out a little bit, he doesn't chill out. They're like, 145 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: we're never gonna invite him back. But the ratings, like 146 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: I said, had been going up and up, so they 147 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: had them back and they showed full body. And the 148 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: thing about censoring somebody is once people find out somebody's 149 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: being censored, they really want to see what's being kept 150 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: from them. So once they showed Elvis and full body, like, 151 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: part of his appeal was we're not supposed to see this, 152 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: and he kept doing it. And that's kind of what 153 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: we know Elvis for. If you were doing an impression, 154 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: it involves a lot of hip gyration well and lip 155 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: like this. This is not a good sample of me 156 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: doing the lip, but that kind of that looks like 157 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: I have having a seizure. The visual amazing Madonna was banned 158 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: from the Vatican. In nineteen eighty nine, Madonna released Like 159 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: a Prayer, which showed her kissing a saint, dancing in 160 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: front of Bernie Crosses, and basically challenging a lot of 161 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: Catholic imagery. The Vatican condemned it immediately, which again, once 162 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: they did that, it just made it bigger. I think 163 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: that's something you're also going to see is that once 164 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: people publicly say, yep, that's true, we no longer allow you, 165 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: or we no longer want you to do ABC or D, 166 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: then whatever they're not wanted to do actually becomes bigger 167 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: and more meaningful. Her nineteen ninety Blonde Ambition tour, she 168 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: had that and Pope John Paul the Second called for 169 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: a boycott of her concerts in Italy, accusing her of 170 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: satanic behavior. And you know what Madonna did, She just 171 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: did more because she knew all the press it was 172 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: bringing to her shows, and so that kind of made 173 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: her under the massive pop star that she was. Yep, 174 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: you gotta have talent. Yep, the timing's got to be right. 175 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: But also if the right people push against you and 176 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: you push back, you're even bigger because of it. And 177 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: so you saw that happen to Madonna, and she's one 178 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: of the biggest pop stars in the history of you know, 179 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: American pop music. We can talk about Pete Rose, who 180 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: forever was banned from the Baseball Hall of Fame. Now 181 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: this is a bit different because he now is not 182 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: banned from the Hall of Fame. He's not in yet, 183 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: but once he died, he's now allowed to be in 184 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: so he's baseball's all time hits leader two hundred and 185 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: fifty six hits. He was banned for life in nineteen 186 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: eighty nine because there was an investigation into him betting 187 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: on games while being a manager of a team. That 188 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: team was Cincinnati Reds, and he said he never bet 189 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: against his team because that'd be cheating, right, because if 190 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: you bet against your team, you can actually make decisions 191 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: to make your team lose. Therefore, you would make more 192 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: money because you're a manager and you're betting, and you 193 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: obviously have insider information, even if you're betting on your 194 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: team to win or you're betting on other teams. Once 195 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: he admitted to the gambling, they were like, you're out, 196 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: You're done. So he has admitted he's signed a bunch 197 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: of balls. I'm sorry I bet on baseball. He lobbied 198 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: for reinstatement, very divisive figure while he was alive and forever. 199 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: The Hall of Fame refused to consider him, but just 200 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: even a few weeks ago they have now said, now 201 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: that he's died, he can be up for the Baseball 202 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame, which is kind of crazy, like, if 203 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna let him be, I don't know, can you 204 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: like death bet him like a special rule where if 205 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: someone's dying and it's closed, you like throw him in 206 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: real quick. But yeah, he'll never get to see that. 207 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: That's crazy. Tanya Harding was banned for life from US 208 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: figure skating. Now we'll go back to the nineties for 209 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 1: this one. In nineteen ninety four, Tanya Harding's ex husband, 210 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: Jeff Gilllooley, and her bodyguard they attacked Nancy Carrigan. Nancy 211 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: Carigan was her skating rival. They were both from the 212 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: United States. They were both gonna go to the Olympics, 213 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: and they later did go to the Olympics. Nancy Kerrigan 214 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: did I believe Kerrigan ended up bronzing. But they popped 215 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: Nancy Kerrigan in the leg. They clubbed her in the 216 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,599 Speaker 1: knee with like a stick, so she was unable to 217 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: compete and like the US Championship, one of the US ones. 218 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: So Tanya Harding denied knowing in advance that it was happening, 219 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: but evidence showed that she knew after, but she was 220 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: never found guilty of being a part of actually planning 221 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: or clubbing Nancy Kerrigan in the knee, which, by the way, 222 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: if you've never seen. I think it's Eitan yet with 223 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: Margot Robbie. You should watch that. It's awesome, like Margot 224 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: Robbie kind of kills it. I think Tanya Harding did 225 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars too. Justice for Tanya Harding now 226 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,599 Speaker 1: I don't know about justice, but she pled guilty to 227 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: hindering prosecution. She was banned for life by the US 228 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: Figure Skating Association. No Olympics. I do think though, that 229 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: Nancy Carrigan bronzed Brandon. We looked that up. For me, 230 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: say if Nancy Kerrigan medled in that Tanya Harding was 231 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: all over the tabloids and then I Tanya was nominated 232 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: for an Oscar way later on run our Test. If 233 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: we're staying in the athletic world, he was suspended eighty 234 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: six games. Now he wasn't kicked out of anything for 235 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: life or black ball, but this is a massive suspension. 236 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: If we go back to two thousand and four, The 237 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: Malice of the Palace, there's a documentary on Netflix. You 238 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: should watch that if you don't remember the game, and 239 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: we probably weren't watching the game live as it happened, 240 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: because you're talking about just a regular NBA regular season game. 241 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: And so this happens as pacers and pistons and there 242 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: are people, they're fighting the fans. It is unbelievable. Like 243 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: when this is over or pause this, go look at 244 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: the clips of malice in the palace. So a fan 245 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: threw a drink at run our Tests as it was 246 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: going down and he charges into this. I'm talking about 247 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: swinging hard. Players are fighting, players are fighting fans, Fans 248 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: are throwing stuff. Ron oar Test was suspended for the 249 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: rest of the season eighty six games, the longest suspension 250 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: for an on court incident. It changed league policies. Security increased, 251 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: still has increased. Alcohol sales were reduced, like there's a 252 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: cutoff point. And that was to a time when NBA 253 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: image control became a priority. Dude, it's crazy to look 254 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: back at. And now they've also done documentaries with the 255 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: players talking about that night and they're all they all 256 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: get along now pretty much. Br Anyway, you seven weeks 257 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: Nancy Carrigan won silver seven weeks. Hey, better than bronze 258 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: by one. And there's your factor the night the silver 259 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: is better than bronze by one. 260 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 3: Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor, 261 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 3: and we're back on the Bobby cast. 262 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 1: The Rolling Stones were banned from complete cities in the 263 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: late sixties and early seventies. The Rolling Stones were blacklisted 264 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: from entire cities due to how rawity their fans would get, 265 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: also drug busts and arrests. We can go to Boston 266 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two, the mayor was starting to cancel their 267 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: show because of fan riots in New York City. There 268 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: were drug arrests, and they had been suspected of excitement 269 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: of rowdy crowds. Really, the Rolling Stones were just a 270 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: symbol of anti establishment and rebellion through music, and that 271 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: was a time when there was a lot of anti 272 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: establishment sentiment. And I think that also helped fuel their 273 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: mystique because these politicians, which are just like white dudes 274 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: with insecurity issues, saying we don't like the Rolling Stones. 275 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: It made people love the Rolling Stones even more. Justin 276 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: Bieber was banned from China in twenty seventeen. China's Mystery 277 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: of Culture cited Bieber with quote bad behavior, with quote 278 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: bad behavior, and a need to purify the entertainment environment, 279 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: and that included public outburg shirtless annex at the Great 280 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: Wall because he's up on the Wall, but he was 281 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: shirtless a lot. I guess you just don't do that 282 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: on the Great Wall. He also was caught drag racing 283 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: in Miami, but that's not even China. But China has 284 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: not lifted the band as of right now. Of Justin 285 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: Bieber from their country. Oasis was banned from a specific 286 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: airline and from MTV for a long time. They're back 287 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: together now, which is pretty cool. But those guys hated 288 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: each other. But the Gallagher brothers were a disaster. They 289 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: were kicked off a Cathay Pacific flight in nineteen ninety eight. 290 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: Liam was smoking, drunk and harassing passengers, so the airline 291 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: banned them. I've not heard of that airline, but it 292 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: is pretty baller to be banned by an entire airline. Also, 293 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: it's funny that they were harassing the passengers. It wasn't 294 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: the passengers harassing them for like an autograph. He was 295 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: so messed up, apparently allegedly that he was harassing the 296 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: people on the plane. We can also go to nineteen 297 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: ninety six MPTB unplugged. Noel agreed to play without Liam 298 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: because Liam pulled out last minute, because Liam was like, 299 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: my throat hurts and then you may have seen the 300 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: video where Liam is then in the balcony like heckling 301 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: the crowd and his brother on stage, so his throat 302 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: wasn't heard in that bad But they were banned from 303 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: MTV for that. They were banned from multiple UK festivals. 304 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: They would walk off of shows all the time. But 305 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: again because it was so shared when there wasn't social 306 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: media and shared equals celebrated. It made them so known. 307 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: And once they were so known, usually you liked their music. 308 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: They made great music, and so they were adored. They 309 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: were hated a little, but mostly they were adored. And 310 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: I thought it was pretty cool that Oasis announced it 311 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: getting back together. Imagine all the millions of dollars they 312 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: gave up by just being brothers who didn't want to 313 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: talk to each other. I have one other one and 314 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: it's Hank william Senior who was banned from the Grand 315 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: Ole Opry. Yeah, I'm talking about the Hank Williams. Like, 316 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: if you were to do a mount rushmore country artists 317 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: in the history of country music, Hank Williams would be 318 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: one of the people you'd put up. There were for 319 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: most people, you know, you're cheat and hard. That guy 320 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: He pretty much built the Opry stage with his sound, 321 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: and then he got banned in nineteen fifty two. Hank 322 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: was the biggest starr in country music, but behind the 323 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: scenes he was what a lot of artists at that 324 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: time were, and that was struggling alcoholism, chronic back pain 325 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: and now and we know this now because we have 326 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: more knowledge of the situation mental health issues. So he 327 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: would play the Opry, but then he started missing Opry performances, 328 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: and then when he would show up, a lot of 329 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 1: the time he would show up drunk or just wouldn't 330 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 1: show up at all. The Opry, known back then for 331 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: being very strict and for being squeaky clean, had a 332 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 1: three strikes in year out energy, so they fired him 333 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: and straight up banned him and told him don't come 334 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: back until you get sober. And he never made it back. 335 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: He died a year later at the age of twenty nine, 336 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: in the backseat of a Cadillac. He never stepped foot 337 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: on the Opry stage again. Now decades later, there were 338 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: petitions and campaigns to reinstate him after his death, but 339 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: the Opry never officially lifted the band because to be 340 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 1: a member of the Opry, you've got to be alive, 341 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: so you can't really put someone dead in the opry 342 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: based on the current opry rules. So he died banned 343 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: from the Grand Ole Opry. So that whole situation became 344 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: a symbol of how strict the rules were back then 345 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: and how those same rules cost country music. Really one 346 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: of the country music's brightest lights, which was Hank Senior, 347 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: you know, one of the people that made country music 348 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 1: super famous. So what I'm saying by all that is, 349 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: I'm basically like all those people. I'm just like Hank Senior, 350 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: Ron Artest, Snead O'Connor, Oasis, and Justin Bieber. That's right. 351 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: And I know I've not been banned officially from Dancing 352 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 1: with the Stars, But when you go from winning a 353 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: national TV show to you know, not even getting a 354 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 1: like when you post a funny comment on the Dancing 355 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: with the Stars Instagram page, you know what's up. And 356 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm fine with it. I never would 357 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: have thought about it until someone called to tell me. 358 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: I didn't even realize I was banned until someone called 359 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: to say, hey, you're banned. I don't need the glitter 360 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 1: under my eyes. I don't need the two two that 361 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: I wore. I just need this trophy right here, and 362 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: you know what I have it. It's the people's trophy 363 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: right there. But if they ever want to do a 364 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: redemption season for people who were quietly banned, I'm ready 365 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: to chat chah, I'm ready to get back in it. No, 366 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: I I was pretty terrible, But that's the homework I 367 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,239 Speaker 1: put into me getting what I think is banned from 368 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars. See, that's what I'm motivated by 369 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: when people tell me that you can't do that anymore. 370 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: I appreciate all the feedback from the last episode that 371 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: I did by myself here, and I have five other 372 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: questions that you guys have sent me since then. You 373 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: can always DM me questions. I think this is a 374 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: fun way to kind of, you know, put a button 375 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: on these episodes. Number one, Dear Bobby, what do people 376 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: assume about your success that isn't true? And I want 377 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: to just assign this to whatever success that I've had, 378 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 1: but I will assign this to the athletic success success 379 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: in the business world. And I think, you know, I'll 380 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 1: talk to Eddie or some of my other friends about 381 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 1: this and they'll go, well, that quarterback won a super Bowl. 382 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: He's probably good, Like he's probably checking out now. And 383 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: I think my statement back to them is whatever is 384 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: ingrained in you, because in order to be wildly successful 385 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: at something, first of all, there is a ton of 386 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: sacrifice in other parts of your life. Secondly, whatever screw 387 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: is loose, it has got to be the right screw. 388 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: But that screw doesn't screw itself back in after you've 389 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: quote made it. There really isn't a finish line for 390 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: somebody who's already mentally unstable. And that's what wildly successful 391 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: people are for the most part, Like there's something missing 392 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: in the lives of those people that they feel they 393 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: have to make up for through whatever they're trying to 394 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 1: have success in. And for me it's been whatever, radio podcast, 395 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: spoken word books, whatever that case is. And I think 396 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: the most misunderstood thing is that you just get to 397 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: a point and then once you reach that point, you're like, 398 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: I'm all good now, I think I'm on a coast 399 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: if anything gets the opposite, because you get to the 400 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: point and you start to be scared that it was 401 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: a fluke, or people think it's a fluke, or it's 402 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: not gonna last, or you're becoming irrelevant. So I think 403 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: that probably the most misunderstood thing about success, especially in 404 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: the entertainment world or in the athletic world sports, that 405 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: you get to a point you crush it and you're like, well, 406 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: I got there, I'm good now, Because if anything, I 407 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: think it's very much the opposite of that. Next up, Hey, Bobby, 408 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: do you think you're more driven by fear or ambition? 409 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: I think my ambition is created by fear and insecurity. 410 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 1: Much like that first question, I think most of what 411 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: I do is fear based. I think any success I've 412 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: had has been fear based success. I think my fear 413 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: comes from growing up very poor, moving around a whole lot, 414 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 1: living in a trailer park, not being able to have 415 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: three meals a day every day, sometimes not seeing an 416 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: adult for a few days, you know, when you're ten, eleven, 417 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: twelve years old and kind of having to figure it 418 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: out yourself. And so I think a lot of my 419 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: I'm going to be successful started with I'm going to 420 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: get the he out of here, and how do you 421 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: get out of here? It is to be extremely disciplined. 422 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: I think disciplined consistency are the two hardest things. I 423 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: never really try to be dynamic. If it happens, that's awesome, 424 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: But you can't remain dynamic forever or all the time. 425 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: What you can do pretty much all the time is 426 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: be consistent and have discipline. Like that's the real success. 427 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: I don't need somebody that's like amazing some and then 428 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: pretty crappy other times. I kind of mid others, even 429 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: for people that I work with, Like, if they're not consistent, 430 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: they're not going to be a part of the team. 431 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: And I'm out looking for A plus efforts followed by 432 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: a C and then maybe an F and back to 433 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: an A. I don't care about that. If it's bes 434 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: all the time, that's awesome, as long as you're giving 435 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: me solid bees and solid effort all the time. But 436 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 1: I would say I'm driven far more by fear and insecurity, 437 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: or at least was still am But it used to 438 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: be really like running on red you get in the car. 439 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: I don't, but you know how you see in movies 440 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: where people hit the gas and it goes over to 441 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 1: the red. I think that's what the first thirty seven 442 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: years of my life were just on red the entire time. 443 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 1: And when you're on red, because I've seen it in 444 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 1: television on the movies Boom sometimes it blows up, and 445 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: I've had a couple of those. 446 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: The Bobby Cast will be right back. This is the 447 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 2: Bobby Cast. 448 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: Next up, what's the weirdest or funniest fan interaction you've 449 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: ever had? Well, when it comes to people saying what's up, 450 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: I love it because that means you appreciate or it 451 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: consume something that I do. But I think the weirdest 452 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:54,360 Speaker 1: is probably in the bathroom. There have been multiple times 453 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 1: where a dude has come up while I'm at the journal, 454 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: and it's kind of weird in the bathroom anyway, because 455 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: that's such a odd, personal, vulnerable place, but especially when 456 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: you're junk is out, and I also realize no one's 457 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 1: coming up to me because they see my junk and 458 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: they want to see my junk. But mostly it's like, oh, dude, Bobby, 459 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: what's up? And I literally got it in my hand, 460 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: So that's weird. Once I was at a urinal and 461 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: there's a urinal right next to a stall and the 462 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 1: stall obviously there's a wall and there's a commode because 463 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: that's why there's a stall. But the dude stands on 464 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: the commode, looks over and goes Bobby Bones, I knew 465 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: that was you, and as he looks over, I mean, 466 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 1: you're looking right down on my dangling. So that's probably 467 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: the weirdest. I think if I were to list one, two, 468 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: and three, all three would be in a public bathroom somewhere. 469 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: I appreciate the love, and I know that it's never 470 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: on purpose. Two more questions, Hey, Bobby, do you think 471 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: reality TV helps or hurts someone's career? It's funny because 472 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: they did not know we were doing this episode on 473 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: how I've been blackballed allegedly. I think it used to 474 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: be double edged, and I think it used to be 475 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: held against people, especially in the world that we live 476 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: in a country music and in Nashville, because they would 477 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: come off the Voice or American Idol and people would 478 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: look at them as just a reality contestant who's now 479 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 1: trying to make it. But now nothing matters. And I 480 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: say that in a great way, like nothing matters, but 481 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: everything matters, but nothing matters so much that it alone 482 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: is going to make or break someone's career. So when 483 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: people say, hey, should I go on a show for me, 484 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: it's yeah, because you're just exposing yourself to more people. 485 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: And I think now and the four years that I 486 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: was on American Idol, they don't force you into contracts anymore. 487 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 1: If you get to a certain point, you don't have 488 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: to sign this major deal with them. Were back in 489 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: the day day when those shows were killing. If you 490 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 1: made it to a certain point, you were then signed. 491 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 1: You were obligated to be with whatever that entity was. 492 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: I know there were certain people during the American Idol days, 493 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: back way before I was on, when it was like 494 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: a monster, that would leave right as they got in 495 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: the top twelve because they did not want to be 496 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: bound to whatever that agreement was. That doesn't happen anymore, 497 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: And the main reason it doesn't happen anymore is because 498 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: people just won't go on the show. If you're thinking 499 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 1: about it, like I don't know do I want to 500 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: do this, and then you see, well, if I make it, 501 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: I then have to sign with this management or this label. 502 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: That's going to cut down eighty percent of the people 503 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: that would even think about doing the show. So what 504 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: I would say is, dude, go get on it. Get 505 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: on everything, because the more things you get on, the 506 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: more people can see you. And it's all about building 507 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 1: your base. The people that are going to come to 508 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: your shows are going to buy your merch that's it. 509 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: And those shows will do that now. And you know, 510 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: if you look back to I think just about everyone 511 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: has tried at some point to get on one of 512 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: those shows. If you're an artist now and you've been 513 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 1: in the game for ten years or less, you probably 514 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: either tried to get on and didn't, got on and 515 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: get kicked off early, or got on and did okay. 516 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: Morgan Wallin was on the Voice. He's like singing pop 517 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: songs with like longer ish hair. I think Maren Morris 518 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: talked about how she got rejected for Idol. I think 519 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: Hillary Scott from Ladya same thing, like tried out for 520 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: American Idol and didn't get it, and it's always you 521 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: was like, well, look how terrible idol was there is 522 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: But mostly those shows are TV shows. They're looking for 523 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: kinds of artists and they need to fill certain buckets. 524 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: And then also it's mostly just like low level producers 525 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: doing those entry rounds where they just watched much people singing, 526 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: like the people that kind of sound good they put 527 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: through they may not even understand what they're looking at. 528 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: So it's very low level people in those early rounds 529 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: that are watching all the singers, and then they have 530 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: like five thousand singers a day, so people are bound 531 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: to slip through the cracks. All right, that's it. We 532 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: did it again. We did it again. Who's that we 533 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: did it again. I want to tell you a quick story. 534 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: So I was on Instagram the other night. Is about 535 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: two thirty in the morning. I have trouble sleeping. So 536 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: when I wake up, now I know my body enough. 537 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: That's like, if I wake up at two two thirty 538 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: in the morning, just get up, go into the kitchen, 539 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: eat some cereal, restart, then get back in the bed. 540 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: I tried for a long time just to keep my 541 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,719 Speaker 1: eyes and shut and just like, come on, we can 542 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: go back and sleep. That never works. And having had 543 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: dealt with these issues now for probably two years, what 544 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: works for me best is almost going like all right, 545 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: here we go. I'm up, let's start over, and let's 546 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: rewind down. But the problem is I'm not always in 547 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: my right mind whenever it's two thirty in the morning, 548 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: because I've awoken right in the middle of sleep. I'm 549 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: still kind of tired, but I'm not so sleepy that 550 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: I fall asleep but my brain's not on full capacity, 551 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: and so I end up writing things or buying things, 552 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: like I bought some stuff that we open up here 553 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: on the sports YouTube page, like autograph balls, and it 554 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: all came back his garbage. But I spent like close 555 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: to one thousand dollars on all this stuff, and none 556 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: of it was good. But I was on Instagram and 557 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: I saw Lionel Richie post that he's doing all these shows, 558 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: and I'm like, dude, I'm in I got to come 559 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: to one of these shows. I wrote that in a 560 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: message on Instagram story to Lionel Richie and he responded 561 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: the next day, because he does his own social media 562 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: at least reads it, and he goes, just tell me 563 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: which show, and I go back and I look at 564 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: it and the entire show list is all European shows. 565 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: So he's in Europe for like the next two months. 566 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: And now I've committed to go watch Lionel Richie in Europe. 567 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: And I love Lionel and I know Lionel, and Lionel 568 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: has been awesome to me in my career, especially on 569 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: American Idol. He was great, so kind. But his manager 570 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: reached out to it was like, hey, Lionel says, you 571 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: want to come to one of his shows in Europe, 572 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: like tell Us, which show Lionel would love to see you, 573 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: Let's go. And I'm like, oh no, I just committed 574 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: to go into Europe to watch Lionel Richie. I wish 575 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: I could go in America to watch Lionel Richie. Then 576 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: he sent me a message last night he goes, how 577 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: about Copenhagen, And I'm like, I don't dip. That's not 578 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: what he meant. He wanted me to come to Copenhagen. 579 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: I knew what he meant. I was just kind of kidding. 580 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: So now I've got to decide if I'm going to 581 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,959 Speaker 1: go to Europe to watch Lionel Richie do a concert, 582 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: which I would love to do. I tried to go 583 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: watch him once in Hawaii because American Idol would send 584 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: us out every year to Hawaii. We would work from 585 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: the Disney Resort and it was one of the stages 586 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: before the Top twelve. So I went from like forty 587 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: to twelve so every year, and that is a long 588 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: trip from Nashville. It is a long trip. For two 589 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: of those trips, I think I flew Delta later on 590 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: Luke Brian and I would fly private and we would 591 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: go out together, and that was pretty baller. Not gonna 592 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: lie to you, But for the first couple of years, 593 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: I'd fly Delta and I remember Lionel saying, Hey, I'm 594 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: gonna do a show before we start shooting. I don't 595 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: in Hawaii. You should come out. So I left a 596 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: day early. I'm going out. I get on the flight 597 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: because Ida was paying for it. It was first class, and 598 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in the first class seat and I start 599 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: to feel terrible and I tell the flight attendant, Hey, 600 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: I'm not feeling very good. Do you have any like advil? 601 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: My head was killing me, and so she gives me stuff. 602 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm drinking a bunch of water, but I just feel 603 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: it like come over me. And so I go into 604 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: the bathroom and I vomit hard into the toilet in 605 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: the bathroom and I'm like, boy, this is this is 606 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: not good. Go back to my seat. My head's still 607 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: killing me, and I say, hey, just keep the waters coming. 608 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: I need a blanket. I'm like freezing. At the same time, 609 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: back to the bathroom, I'm vomiting again. At this point, 610 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: I realize I'm gonna be in the bathroom for a 611 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: long time because I'm just not feeling good and vomiting 612 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: every two or three minutes. But I'm also in like 613 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: a airplane bathroom, so as I'm vomiting, and as I'm 614 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: sitting there, because when you vomit too, you're also like 615 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: you're out of breath, You're feeling disgusting. I'm also scrubbing 616 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: the bathroom with wet paper towels because if I'm gonna 617 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: be trapped in there, I don't be laying in everybody's 618 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: And so I was probably in that bathroom for like 619 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: fifty minutes. And I remember as I was sitting on 620 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: the floor, opening that bathroom door, and imagine you're a 621 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: flight attendant and you see some guys head down at 622 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: the bottom of the bathroom door, and I put my 623 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: head on. I'm like, hey, I'm gonna be here for 624 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: a while. I'm pretty sick. But when I left, cleanest 625 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: bathroom in the history of Delta, that's what I heard. Now, 626 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: that's what I made up. But I did not get 627 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: to go to the Linel show because as soon as 628 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: I landed, I went to bed, and I was sick 629 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: for that day and then got to go shoot. So 630 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: maybe I should go to Europe, but man, that is 631 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: a long flight. I do love Lionel.
