00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,200

130
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 10: stuff when you're fell.

131
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 5: It doesn't need to hook you up with a family plan.

132
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 5: You're not a family with him.

133
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 9: Now. We're like boys, we're like brothers.

134
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: You're ten years older than me and you still can't

135
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 3: figure out how to.

136
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 4: Have your own phone plan.

137
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 9: I know how to go into the store, and you

138
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 9: get it.

139
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 10: I mean, you're thirty one years old and you're twenty

140
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 10: nine and you had to walk.

141
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 5: Hey, mom, why'd you just make up a number?

142
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 9: Because she said you're ten years older than me?

143
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 5: Got it?

144
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 10: So I did the math. Forty one minus ten is

145
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 10: thirty one. I know Kansas people can't do that over there. Okay,

146
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 10: now see he's pivoting. But how do you feel about

147
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 10: the investigation? Do you feel like you understand now?

148
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 8: I understand now, but I still don't understand why he

149
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 8: would do that. So when your kids get older and

150
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 8: they start getting cell phones, so they can be added

151
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 8: to this family plan as well.

152
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 6: Hopefully and on the plan with him?

153
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 9: Oh probably, since I was.

154
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 10: Twenty five, like he used to work.

155
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 9: Him and his dad used to run a furniture store

156
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 9: over ten years. Yeah, way over ten years.

157
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 10: And then he quit the furniture store because it wasn't

158
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 10: big enough, and then he went to work for a

159
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 10: Verizon and boom.

160
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 9: Now he's like a manager.

161
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 13: Now he's like a manager who sometimes forgets to face.

162
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 5: Like, Oscar, you the man. You let this guy stand

163
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,600

164
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 9: Yeah, what year did.

Speaker 13: Oh?

167
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 9: Probably, I mean it had to be sixteen years ago.

168
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 5: Oscar, You the man, lunchbox a year, a liar and

169
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:25,200

00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 5: You're right, You're right.

173
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 6: Just you can't hold anybody accountable for doing things that

174
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 6: are what kids do because the parents are people looking

175
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 6: out for them. This is what your parent would do

176
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 6: with you to put join their cell phone.

177
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 9: Plan if your parents papers you're an adult.

185

Speaker 5: Been a fan for a long time.

211
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 15: Well, I've been doing it a long time. It's suddenly

212
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 15: occurring to me.

213
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 6: Now you still I don't know, look twenty four, it's weird.

214
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 6: Do you have an aged moisturizer?

215
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 5: Yes?

216
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 6: Hey, so I have a lot of questions, especially about

217
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 6: when you first started, because there are a few people

218
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 6: to me. Dave Grohlfoo Fighter started that by himself. Five

219
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 6: for Fighting, was a single guy, then turned into a

220
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 6: band Dashboard Confessional similar thing. Right, You started this as

221
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,599
Speaker 6: a project by yourself and then made a band The

222
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 6: Panic of the Disco Similar? Is that all kind of

223
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 6: am I right on that story?

224
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 15: You write about the fact that it was started by

225
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 15: myself and eventually became a band. But I think in

226
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 15: my mind in the early days, I know it was true.

227
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 15: I was in other bands that were proper bands. I

228
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 15: was in one particular called or This Seems Forever that

229
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 15: was I thought the main thing, you know, and it

230
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 15: was only Dashboard was only a side project. But all

231
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 15: that to say, the side project was all my friends

232
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 15: are on tour and all of their bands wouldn't be

233
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 15: fun if whenever they came home, we could all play together.

234
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 15: So I'll just call this thing that I'm doing by

235
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 15: myself a band name, so it doesn't feel like preclusive,

236
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 15: and it feels inclusive. My friends had come on stage

237
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 15: if they're home, and that's not exactly what happened, but

238
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 15: it was my original conception for it.

239
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 6: So the band is dead again. By the way, your record,

240
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 6: your on plug records are my favorite. I just loved

241
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 6: it so much, and you know, there's a lot to it.

242
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 6: So how many people are actually in dashboard confessional? Like

243
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 6: the dashboard? How many people in the band? Well on

244
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 6: this tour, so it's all different, right, you are the

245
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 6: central figure always.

246
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 15: Well, I guess I've been a constant, and there's been

247
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 15: quite a few long standing members, and there's been people

248
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 15: that when they you know, they leave to go and

249
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 15: do other and onto other musical projects or other life

250
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 15: product and then they come back. It's kind of an

251
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 15: open invitation to come on back. So like, for example,

252
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 15: Scott our bass player has been in the band. I

253
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 15: think for this will be twenty years. That's a long time,

254
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 15: you know. But sometimes I go out by myself, so

255
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 15: Scott's not there.

256
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 6: So when you're starting this project, and you're doing it

257
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 6: by yourself. Are you recording it on because everybody has

258
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 6: a bedroom story or a garage story?

259
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 5: Like, what did that? Actually?

260
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 6: What literally does that mean? Are you recording on like

261
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 6: some four track player? Is that the first dashboard where

262
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 6: you're just sitting there singing acoustically into a crappy closet

263
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 6: or microphone?

264
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was.

265
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 15: It was a little task scam four track that I

266
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 15: bought it a tag sale.

267
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 14: That was what I started with.

268
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 15: That's not what the record was, but it wasn't much

269
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 15: better than that. That first record was recorded in a closet,

270
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 15: but you know, it had you know, pham patting on

271
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 15: the wall.

272
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 14: So it felt cool, it felt real.

273
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 15: But the early demos I recorded a lot of them

274
00:10:54,920 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 15: in my van, in the back of the van, like

275
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 15: just a single boombox. I can not a multi track.

276
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 14: So I have a.

277
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 15: Tape of me running through what would be the first record,

278
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 15: which is called the Swiss Army Romance. I ran through

279
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 15: it all just to see what a cool running order

280
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 15: would be, and I found that tape and it's the

281
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 15: running order that we used.

282
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 6: Was that about two thousand, year two thousand, Yeah, it

283
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 6: was two thousand, So you have this tape, and was

284
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 6: your expectation to go out and tour this for Dashboard

285
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 6: to exist, or again, was it just a fun thing

286
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 6: that your friends could join, like I what was kind

287
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 6: of the motivation behind creating this music with just yourself.

288
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 15: I guess it was a glorified art project or something.

289
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 14: I think.

290
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 5: Did you expect it to ever be heard by people?

291
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 6: No?

292
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 14: I expected to.

293
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 15: What I'd hoped to do was put out the one

294
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 15: recording and maybe get lucky and press one thousand if

295
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 15: I could afford it, and sell them how and sell

296
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 15: them to people like from the van from the van, yeah,

297
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 15: and sell them to people at shows. And I had

298
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 15: one tour booked and it was I think this one

299
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 15: window where further seems forever wasn't going out, and it

300
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 15: looked like just this neat opportunity to go out and

301
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 15: travel like just by literally by myself. But I think

302
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 15: it was eleven dates and then I never went home.

303
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 6: When did you start to feel traction, even the lightest

304
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 6: bit of traction where it's wow, people actually like understanding

305
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 6: and relating to this music.

306
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 15: I was surprised to find it pretty early on. And

307
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 15: I don't mean that there was many people at the show.

308
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 15: There weren't, but if there were five, all five seemed

309
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 15: to get it. Whatever that thing was, they seemed to

310
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 15: get it. And I was really shocked by that because

311
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 15: I thought I was doing something unfamiliar in the setting

312
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 15: of like the punk rock scene. It was definitely unfamiliar

313
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 15: just to hav an acoustic guitar, and I looked like

314
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 15: a hardcore kid, but it didn't sound like that kind

315
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 15: of stuff. But it didn't sound like something you'd play

316
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 15: in a coffee shop either, So I didn't feel like

317
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 15: I would have any place where I would find I

318
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 15: was surprised to find like bund of people so quickly.

319
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 6: The term emo was tossed around like crazy, everything's emo

320
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 6: in different ways. Was that term prevalent when you started

321
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 6: to create this kind of music or do you feel

322
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 6: like you were one of the first ones to, you know,

323
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 6: really coin that in music?

324
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 15: Well, I guess no. I didn't feel like I was

325
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 15: one of the first ones. Excuse me to coin it,

326
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 15: certainly not I thought it was. I thought it was

327
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 15: a misnomer, almost like and not. You know that became

328
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 15: a four letter word later to some people. I'm not

329
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 15: sure it ever did to me. But in the early days,

330
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 15: you know, it was I thought, I thought it wasn't

331
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 15: deferential to the people that I listened to that did

332
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 15: that music that was already called emo because there's been

333
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 15: a whole wave of it, a proper wave of like

334
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 15: a musical generation of like two to five years already.

335
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 15: And so at first I was like, this is weird

336
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 15: that they would call me that, and I couldn't quite

337
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 15: figure it out, but realized that the thing was evolving,

338
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 15: whatever that scene was, was evolving to include I guess

339
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 15: me and my friends.

340
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 6: Did you feel like that, because again, your music was

341
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 6: at a time when I was, you know, nineteen twenty

342
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,239
Speaker 6: twenty one years old, so that music was very important

343
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 6: in my overall musical growth from where I was as

344
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 6: a kid to now.

345
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 5: It was right in that timeframe of being in college.

346
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 6: Did you find that your music though, was different to people,

347
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 6: even though it was still kind of punk rock, but

348
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 6: just because it was an acoustic that made it feel

349
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 6: a bit emo to people, that was a softer feel.

350
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 15: Oh it's emo, it feels emo, I mean, but I

351
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 15: guess because of all those obvious reasons that it's softer,

352
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 15: it's a different delivery it's pretty passionate and it's got

353
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 15: the It has the benefit of the kind of passion

354
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 15: you'll put into something when you think you're anonymous almost

355
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 15: you know, it couldn't conceive that people would really be

356
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 15: listening to this, so I didn't really hold back for

357
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 15: fear of how I might feel doing it in front

358
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 15: of people.

359
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 6: What did your band think as you started to pop

360
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 6: off and you're by yourself that you were in was

361
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 6: that tricky?

362
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 13: You know?

363
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 15: Actually, well, it became tricky or later when we were

364
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 15: two bands operating at the same time once they had

365
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 15: a different singer and we navigated that really well too,

366
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 15: to their credit, but in the beginning they were the

367
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 15: guys that were like, you got to go do this.

368
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 15: And as a matter of fact, that one of the

369
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 15: first shows I ever had was that was a phish

370
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 15: not I guess unofficially a dashboard show. Was because the

371
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 15: bass player of my other band, Chad from Further seem Sebber,

372
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 15: said come over here, we're playing a festivals further Was.

373
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 15: He says, there's a guy kind of doing what you're doing.

374
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 15: We should go check it out. But the guy ended

375
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 15: up being me.

376
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 14: It was a ruse.

377
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 15: He just threw me up in the middle of a

378
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 15: tent and there was you know, thirty people there.

379
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 5: And that's funny. Then that's supportive, even supportive at the

380
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 5: same time.

381
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 15: And they're still my best friends that I have. So

382
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 15: I'm grateful that they saw where I was going and

383
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 15: it wasn't where they wanted to go.

384
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 14: They were these all these.

385
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 15: Songs were presented to them as options for us to

386
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 15: play in that band, and they were right. They didn't

387
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 15: fit that band. They were close, but they weren't on

388
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 15: the money.

389
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 5: Were you reluctant when success and fame started?

390
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,239
Speaker 14: Was confused?

391
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 15: Reluctant?

392
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 14: Yeah?

393
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 15: I think I was a bit reluctant. I think I

394
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 15: remain a bit reluctant. It wasn't exactly the plan, but

395
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 15: it was a lot of fun.

396
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 5: Do you get nervous? Stays right at all? Before shows?

397
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 9: Yeah?

398
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 15: I got to now, how am I doing?

399
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 5: Are you doing great? I would never think you were

400
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 5: nervous at all.

401
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 15: You're kidding now, No, I'm not. No, No, I get

402
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 15: I have a weird roiling of energy that I'm trying

403
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 15: to contain when I go up there. And when I

404
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 15: was newer and younger and greener, I would find it

405
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 15: to be alarming. It would like set off almost a

406
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 15: panic attack. But now I understand it's just adrenaline, excitement

407
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 15: and kind of like the.

408
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 14: Love of it. But for a while it was hard

409
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 14: to let it go.

410
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 6: Was there ever a time that you questioned should I

411
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 6: keep doing this? Not because it wasn't working, but because

412
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 6: it really started to work.

413
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 15: Yeah, things got a little hairy there, like where we

414
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 15: had to where we had to have like security guys

415
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 15: and things like that. And I was all thinking, and

416
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 15: I thought this was a really inclusive scene I was from.

417
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 15: And it remained so it wasn't any It wasn't people

418
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 15: trying to like, you know, rip my clothes off or

419
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 15: our clothes off or anything like that.

420
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 14: But it's just like a lot of.

421
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 15: People with a lot of stories that they wanted to do,

422
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 15: things they wanted to share with us, personal things, what

423
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 15: have you. And I remember like not being able to

424
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 15: go I don't know, to the to the mall or

425
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 15: whatever it was that you would do, you know, running

426
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 15: errands became this weird thing and and the suggestion was

427
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 15: made to that we that we take security out. That

428
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 15: was the weirdest thing ever. The nicest people I've ever met.

429
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 15: Were these giant security guys, but it was it was

430
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 15: not a good fit for me. I was like, this

431
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 15: is bringing more attention. I can put a baseball cap on?

432
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 15: How about that?

433
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 11: Now?

434
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 6: Can you go out and put a hat on and

435
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 6: just live a somewhat normal life.

436
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm not on MTV anymore, and neither's MTV.

437
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 14: I don't think you know there's yes.

438
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, that's I've been able to find the thing

439
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 15: I'd hope for in the beginning, which was this this

440
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 15: path to be able to play music for and with

441
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 15: people without having to be have my life totally disrupted.

442
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 5: What was the first video of yours that was on MTV?

443
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 14: What was it?

444
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 15: It was screaming in fidelities?

445
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, was that weird for you to see?

446
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 6: And there's a you know, there's a line and you're

447
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 6: we'll talk about the Tory doing with the counting Crows,

448
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 6: but massive, I'm a massive hand accounting crows.

449
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 5: And Adam Durretz was in We talked to him for

450
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 5: a while.

451
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 6: But there's a line even in mister jones'es, like when

452
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 6: I look at the television, I want to see me

453
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 6: staring right back at me. Now, that line is him

454
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 6: wanting to see him on TV? Yeah, if that is

455
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 6: that line you at all?

456
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 15: No, it's not at all, it's not at all.

457
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 14: God, I wish it was.

458
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 15: I might have I might have had a different experience

459
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,239
Speaker 15: having seen it. But I remember being like, I mean,

460
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 15: I was excited to tell like my friends, you know,

461
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 15: but it was not a thing I walked in with.

462
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 15: I got used to it really quick, though, Like I'd

463
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 15: get excited and to kind of like, uh, think about

464
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 15: new video ideas. I got excited about the whole, that

465
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 15: whole corner of what music could be, and it became

466
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 15: really fun.

467
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 6: Do you think you would be happier or would have

468
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 6: been then happier if you only had mild success where

469
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 6: you could support yourself create your art, but not because

470
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 6: there was a point when you just became so popular

471
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 6: it became pop. Your music didn't change, but you became

472
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 6: so popular it became pop.

473
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 5: Was that the hardest time for you? Or was it awesome?

474
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 14: It was awesome. It was so great.

475
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 15: I didn't really have to change I did, you know.

476
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 15: We grew and our music did evolve, but I wasn't

477
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 15: being made to change, And more and more people were

478
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 15: were gravitating towards it.

479
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 14: It was beautiful.

480
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 15: I was maybe a little tired, like physically tired. It's

481
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 15: a big world to get to, you know. And I

482
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 15: think there was a point where we were really doing

483
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 15: I don't know how many shows it was, but it

484
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,959
Speaker 15: was like three hundred days out on the road, and

485
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 15: that was a long stretch. I was a good couple

486
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 15: or three years that we did that kind of schedule.

487
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 15: That was the only part that was really tough to

488
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 15: grapple with.

489
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 5: Was it weirder to be home than on the road.

490
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, maybe maybe always will be and maybe always was.

491
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 15: So so that that's something I think was probably good

492
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 15: for me in my life.

493
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 11: Where did you grow up?

494
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 15: Well, I kind of grew up in Connecticut and then

495
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 15: Florida and found music and all that once I moved

496
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 15: to Florida.

497
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 6: And what about Florida, Like, were you exposed to a

498
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 6: scene there that opened it up for you or were

499
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 6: you already searching for it?

500
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 5: And I don't know, it's warmer, so you're out. I

501
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 5: don't know why Florida.

502
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 15: Well, I think there was there was a scene. There

503
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 15: was a music scene, of course, there was one in

504
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 15: Connecticut where I lived. I just didn't know about it.

505
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 15: I was a little bit too young, didn't know an

506
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 15: older kid on the block that might tell me there

507
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 15: was a Youth of Today show or something. But when

508
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 15: I got down to Florida, a couple things happened. Was

509
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 15: I was really into skateboarding. And this is pre you know,

510
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 15: super popularity of skateboarding. Still get beat up for having

511
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 15: looking like you do it. But I found other people

512
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 15: like that that were into it, and I hadn't really

513
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 15: found that many people like that where I'd grown up

514
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 15: in Connecticut. But it also rains like it's torrential rain

515
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 15: in the in the afternoons there a certain time of

516
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 15: the year.

517
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 14: So we would just like sit in a.

518
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 15: Car or at the skate shop with music playing, and

519
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 15: I'd pick everybody's brains about it. And then they said,

520
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 15: you know, there's they're playing here. Whoever it was, you know,

521
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 15: we started going to shows and so it was sort

522
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 15: of that just typical youth culture thing. There a friend

523
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 15: with a driver's license, that kind of thing. Well, like

524
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 15: I said, my driver's license, I just don't have a car.

525
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 15: So a friend with a car and and the kind

526
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 15: of kind of meshing of those two worlds. The surf

527
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 15: and skate world with the music world. They're they're really entwined,

528
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 15: and that's how I found the music scene.

529
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 6: Really, my assumption is it could be an unfair assumption that

530
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 6: you may have been a shy kid.

531
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 5: If you were a shy kid, how in the world

532
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 5: did you become a front man? Wow? Like, what was

533
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 5: that proble?

534
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 15: It was not my favorite thing it was, I should

535
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 15: say it was not my It was not an endeavor

536
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 15: I went into looking for how to be a front man.

537
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 15: I just wanted to play with people, So I guess

538
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 15: kicking and screaming is how I got dragged into being

539
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 15: a front man. To be quite honest with you, I

540
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 15: was really really interested in writing songs. It's just an

541
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 15: okay guitar player, just an okay singer. I was pretty

542
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 15: good at at arranging music, so so I was getting

543
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 15: in these bands and and help and felt like I

544
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 15: was integral in the band. But I was almost always

545
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 15: just playing guitar. That's what I really wanted to do.

546
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 15: But I wasn't like a ripper or anything like that,

547
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 15: so I thought were contributing as a songwriter.

548
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 14: I had a place.

549
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 6: Then, who goes, okay, Chris, we need you to sing.

550
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 6: We've heard you sing like a background vocals.

551
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 14: That's how it happens that parts.

552
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 15: Could you somebody do a harmony there, and I'd just

553
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,239
Speaker 15: do it, and it was there, you know, And and

554
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 15: then you come in with your songs and you're singing.

555
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 15: I was singing the songs I was writing to the singer,

556
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 15: to the rest of the band. And finally somebody got

557
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 15: annoyed with the time it took to make somebody else

558
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 15: do it. Just you do it fine, And after a

559
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 15: while of that, you become a singer in the band,

560
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 15: not the singer. This band that I was in, Vacant

561
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 15: Andy's it's where I learned who I really cut my

562
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 15: teeth on all things musical, certainly on all things band

563
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 15: like how to be in a band. But there was

564
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 15: at one point three singers, and then there was for

565
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 15: the length of the band there was two singers, so

566
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 15: there was no front man. We were trading off songs,

567
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 15: and we were always singing each other songs, singing on

568
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 15: each other songs.

569
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 14: Excuse me.

570
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 15: It was later when when I got into further and

571
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 15: those guitar players are like bananas, and as writers, they

572
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 15: were bananas, And I was kind of like, why do

573
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 15: they want me in this band? And it was simply

574
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,239
Speaker 15: because they liked my voice, which was weird because it

575
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 15: was never the thing I expected anybody to I thought

576
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 15: it was just something that I got to do, not

577
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 15: that something anybody would want me to do necessarily. So

578
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 15: that's kind of how it came to pass that I

579
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 15: we got comfortable being at the center of things.

580
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 6: You didn't demand like I always demanded attention, Like I

581
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 6: demand attention. I'm a type a personality. I want to

582
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 6: be in the front. Now you were the opposite.

583
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 14: It was the opposite.

584
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 15: By okay, I think the opposite thing might have been

585
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 15: a little bit of like a learned response, right because

586
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 15: I was I was a shorter kid. I have this

587
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 15: weird birthmark when my hair grows two colors, so like

588
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 15: it's like it's a blonde right in the middle. Like

589
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 15: and I was kid of the eighties, so like Gremlins

590
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 15: is out, so I'm getting like called stripe and all

591
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 15: this stuff and beat up for it or whatever, picked

592
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 15: on for it, and I realized, like, okay, I better

593
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 15: figure out how to blend. And and maybe that that

594
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 15: was I learned that lesson too deeply. But once I

595
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 15: realized I could be more who I wanted to be

596
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 15: out in the middle of that stage. I would save

597
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 15: it all four then and really just be the guy

598
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 15: and have it be the key that turned you into

599
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 15: the whatever. It is, the real you. I've heard it said,

600
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 15: you know, oh, who are you up there? It's like

601
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 15: I don't even know you or whatever. It's like, No,

602
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,440
Speaker 15: that's kind of like I feel like that's me up there.

603
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 6: So you start this project in two thousand, would you

604
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 6: say that Vindicated is this song that people would know

605
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 6: general public? You think Vindicated your biggest song general Yeah,

606
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 6: it's got to be, right, I would think so, but

607
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 6: I'm a little too close to it.

608
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 15: If only because it's in a Marvel movie. Yeah, it's

609
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,679
Speaker 15: got to be the most I don't know whether, like

610
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 15: I never remember like charts and things like that and

611
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 15: what songs were successful by certain metrics, but just that

612
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 15: the most people had to have heard it in the

613
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 15: world from that.

614
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 5: Man, that's what jam. You know, you have your guitar.

615
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 5: Could you give us a little bit of Vidicated?

616
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 13: Yeah?

617
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 5: All right, that's awesome. That still so, I mean, it

618
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 5: also takes me back. There are certain songs that you

619
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,239
Speaker 5: hear and again that was a really big It's like

620
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 5: when you're like a young adult and music matters so

621
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 5: much to you, Like I can remember where I was

622
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 5: like when I would hear that song, and I remember

623
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 5: being in the movie that was a Curse and Dunst

624
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 5: version right on, Spider Man. Did you ever did you

625
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 5: meet them?

626
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 15: I did, but don't they usually called the Toby Maguire version.

627
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 15: But yes, I'm back, yell.

628
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:02,679
Speaker 5: You know what I guess. I think.

629
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 11: That's funny.

630
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 6: Yes, I tell yes that did you write that song

631
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 6: for the movie? Because we talked with Adam Durretz and

632
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 6: County Crows about the song one in the Shrek and

633
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 6: he wrote that for the movie. Yeah, did you write

634
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 6: that for the movie exactly?

635
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 15: And I was like, actually, I hadn't one. And I

636
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 15: were just talking about that about accidentally in love the

637
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 15: other day and it got me thinking, you know, I

638
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 15: submitted a different song to the production when when they

639
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 15: when they asked me about being a part of the soundtrack,

640
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 15: and it was not meant to be. The single wasn't

641
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 15: meant to be in the movie, and I really.

642
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 14: Liked the song. It still hasn't come out.

643
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 15: But then they but the cool thing was they let

644
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 15: me see the movie while it was sort of still

645
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 15: like it wasn't quite dailies, but it was like the

646
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 15: graphics weren't rendered yet. It would suddenly just be like

647
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 15: in animation in the middle of it, like a holding

648
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 15: place for like something to come later. It was really

649
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 15: a neat way to see the movie, and it was

650
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 15: the story of it was really in my mind as

651
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 15: I left there.

652
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 14: They're just like sort of like the conflict.

653
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 15: Of wanting being pulled in different directions, wanting things you

654
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 15: can't quite allow yourself to have or aren't allowed to have.

655
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 15: And I got to our last day to that run

656
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 15: was in Hawaii and we're all going to go surfing,

657
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 15: and I picked up the guitar and it just like

658
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 15: kind of spilled out, and I was like, you know,

659
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,479
Speaker 15: what's funny? Where did that song come from? And I

660
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 15: was like, oh, well, there's this line dangles on a string.

661
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 15: Maybe it's from Spider Man. So just that bit of

662
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 15: it made me call home and just be like, would

663
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 15: you want to hear this other song? I know there's

664
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 15: no time, and so just like that, it was written.

665
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 15: Maybe an hour or two.

666
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 14: Later, I called I played it for Leah Vollak.

667
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 15: Over the phone. She was the head of Sony Music

668
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 15: for Pictures, and she was like, give me a minute,

669
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 15: get me a tape of that. Send her a tape.

670
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 15: She's like, could you actually I think she made She's like,

671
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 15: could you demo that today? It's like pre like home

672
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 15: studio kind of things like that. And we were able

673
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 15: to do it at the club that we were playing

674
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 15: that night, and they got that tape home and somehow

675
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 15: the next they were like, could you fly home tomorrow

676
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 15: record this. If so, it'll be in the movie, it'll

677
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 15: be the single.

678
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 5: Wow.

679
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 14: Okay, well yes, we'll be there.

680
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 5: How big was MySpace in your career?

681
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 14: It was so big?

682
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 15: Oh my god, it was so big. It was the

683
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 15: biggest prob possibly the biggest thing in my career except

684
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 15: for Napster. Those were probably two biggest factors in my career.

685
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 6: Will you explain because I was big on my Space?

686
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 6: Will you explain on MySpace? As to some of our

687
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 6: younger listeners.

688
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 11: Well, it.

689
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 15: Was like I do it yourself Facebook that was run

690
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 15: by renegades. I guess it was this. It was a

691
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 15: it's a social network because the first one I remember

692
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 15: that you that had the framework of what would really

693
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 15: come in social networks like really was very much like

694
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 15: Facebook in a lot of ways. But the way it

695
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 15: wasn't was it was seemed to be music and art

696
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 15: related really heavily, and you could skin your own page

697
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 15: right and you could, so everybody's user interface sort of

698
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 15: looked like their thing. You know, who you were going

699
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 15: to see, and there was I think the reason it

700
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 15: got so big was was people were really hungry to

701
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 15: just communicate a boy the things they felt passionate about,

702
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 15: and no adults were really looking.

703
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 6: And was it they were using your music as their

704
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 6: song because you could put it. You had a song,

705
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 6: you put a song up as is your song? Yeah,

706
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 6: you put people came to your page, was like this

707
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 6: is the kind of music I like, You're forced to

708
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 6: listen to it? Yep, So is that what happened with

709
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 6: your music? People just started sharing it.

710
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 15: But in that way, yeah, like if you're gonna if

711
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 15: we're gonna be friends, you got to know this about me.

712
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 15: It's a big thing, big way to open the door,

713
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 15: an easy way to open the door, great shorthand And

714
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 15: we really benefited from from timing on that one that

715
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 15: we were that were for so many people we were

716
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 15: writing some I was writing I guess something that they

717
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 15: that felt to them like a way to explain themselves,

718
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 15: and MySpace was.

719
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 14: The way they where they could do that.

720
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 6: And then MySpace got all weird and you get viruses,

721
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 6: and then it just went away.

722
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,479
Speaker 11: Yeah, it was really a Nabster too.

723
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 6: But Napster kind of needed to go away because when

724
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 6: I was a kid, I would go, I can't believe

725
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 6: these artists, they want us to pay for this music.

726
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 6: I was so offended. Yeah, I was like, I can't.

727
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 6: I hate mentalica, I hate all They were obviously right

728
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 6: because you are creating an art and you deserve to

729
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 6: be able to live your life based on the art

730
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 6: that people are consuming.

731
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 5: But at the time, as a kid, oh, I was

732
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 5: so mad. I was like, I deserve to have this

733
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 5: free and I download every song. I would just hit

734
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 5: the letter D.

735
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 6: For example, I download every artist started with D, including

736
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 6: Dashboard Confession, all of it. So for you guys, again,

737
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 6: music being shared by like minded people. I gotta imagine

738
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 6: that was massive for you guys. For that brief period,

739
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 6: Napster was just killing it.

740
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 14: Look and I.

741
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 15: Will have an unpopular opinion. I loved Napster made my career. Sure,

742
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 15: it like took away the livelihood I might have had

743
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 15: but wouldn't have. So I can only speak to how

744
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 15: it affected me. And I was I had a record made,

745
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 15: but no distribution, and later when I got on like

746
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 15: a small label, they didn't really have distribution. And then

747
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 15: when we were popping off, the label that we were

748
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 15: on next was having like a war with their distribution.

749
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 15: And that whole time I could still get my music

750
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 15: into people's hands, and I remember being like, well, we

751
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 15: can't get like I literally couldn't get my records from

752
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 15: the distribution place when we when we were at that

753
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 15: stage where you should have been able to could not

754
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 15: physically get records. So I'd just be like, look, just

755
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 15: buy it later if you want to, but maybe get

756
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 15: it now so we can sing along together. So but

757
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 15: where I do think that it did us a service societally,

758
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 15: I guess as a CDs were too expensive. They were

759
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 15: artificially priced in such a way that was that was

760
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 15: harmful to the consumer, I think, and so Knabster, if

761
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 15: if nothing else, was sort of the great equalizer.

762
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 14: Yeah, but it took away a lot of people's paycheck.

763
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean you shouldn't have it free, you should

764
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,719
Speaker 15: have it reasonably priced.

765
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 6: Well, I was looking at your catalog of songs, you know,

766
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 6: Stolen with such a massive song for you as well.

767
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 5: When you hit this stage of.

768
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 6: Your career was when Stolen. I mean you you're You're

769
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 6: a monster by the time Stolen hits. As far as

770
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 6: people come into your shows, I mean, I don't know

771
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 6: that there was ever for me a time to see

772
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 6: dashboard and to see it so large and everywhere you

773
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,719
Speaker 6: went was this. I don't know when I say Stolen

774
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 6: in that song, where does that put you in your

775
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 6: mind about that point?

776
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 14: Oh, I can tell I got it.

777
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 15: I got a chill, even with how quickly it took

778
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 15: me back to think about it. You know this, I

779
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 15: lived in basically a beach town, in a tourist town,

780
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 15: and so like when the easy end of the season

781
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,239
Speaker 15: would come, you'd kind of get your city back, you'd

782
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 15: kind of get your town back. But also like everything

783
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 15: you loved about the exciting now of it all when

784
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 15: season was happening and you're a young person and there's

785
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 15: you know, action, activity, girls, new friends, all kinds of

786
00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 15: things that felt familiar to me as I was transitioning

787
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 15: now into like another place professionally where it's like, Okay,

788
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 15: I wish I could go back there, but everything ends,

789
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 15: and I had this kind of I was conflating the

790
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 15: two things, like the beautiful temporary nature of it all

791
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:17,719
Speaker 15: and how it's all fleeting, it's all transitional, and like

792
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 15: I just it was kind of a nod to like,

793
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 15: I think I need to acknowledge that I love love

794
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 15: it both ways. I love it when everything's happening, and

795
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 15: then I love it when it's really peaceful, and I

796
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 15: always miss the other thing. Whichever place I'm in, I

797
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 15: miss the other place.

798
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 5: So grass is greener, it's.

799
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 15: More like, remember that it really isn't greener. It's special

800
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 15: in both places, so.

801
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 5: It's dead on both grasses of dead or.

802
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 11: No hope?

803
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,479
Speaker 5: Would you mind playing a little bit of stolen for us?

804
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 11: Oh?

805
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 5: The melody there? Do you write melody first or you

806
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 5: a lyrics guy?

807
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 15: I think it's concurrent. Most of the time. I think

808
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 15: I do the sort of a babbel as I'm singing

809
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,959
Speaker 15: and catch a word here and there, and then I'll

810
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 15: spend some time on the lyrics and then singo lyrics.

811
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 15: Melody lyrics is sort of hand and glove.

812
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 5: How fast do that's all come out of you?

813
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 15: You know, I always think about this. You know, those

814
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 15: songs that you wrench on and you really just really

815
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 15: really are nitty gritty on the minute sho of it

816
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 15: all that take weeks and months or whatever, by rights,

817
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 15: those are the ones that should really connect with people.

818
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 15: But it's the ones that take you know, they come

819
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 15: in a flash, they connect with people. And this is

820
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 15: one of the latter.

821
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 6: Your band dashboard professional accounting Crows doing a whole lot

822
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 6: of shows together, or fifty shows.

823

Speaker 15: Oh, we've been talking about this tour for a really

826
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 15: long time. So Adam and I have been close friends

827
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 15: for It's hard to believe, but like maybe it could

828
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,800
Speaker 15: be like fifteen years or more, maybe twenty, I don't know.

829
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,479
Speaker 15: He's kind of been my favorite thing that's happened about

830
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 15: my career. People I've met, experiences I've had, they're sort

831
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 15: of always connected right to him. And and he's my

832
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 15: lyrical here and my musical hero too. So it's a

833
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 15: beautiful kind of thing that is constantly surprising to me

834
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 15: that we're that that, Like I still listen to records like,

835
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 15: he's not that guy, Like he said, this is not

836
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 15: the guy I'm gonna pal around with later. It's a

837
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 15: whole different guy when I listen to music. So how

870
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 2: And instead of like teaching, she's.

871
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 3: Like, you know what, whyn't you go ask Alexa about this?

872
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 3: And she shared what Alexa told her kids. She took notes,

873
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,399
Speaker 3: so you guys can also get a good laugh out

874
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 3: of Alexa's teaching lesson about gold diggers.

875
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 6: Number five, your kids are asking you how do they

876
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 6: even know about gold diggers?

877
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 16: Oh?

878
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 13: I have no idea, but out of nowhere, my son

879
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,439
Speaker 13: just says like, hey, mom, uh, how do you can

880
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 13: how do you tell if someone's a gold digger?

881
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 12: Was this exact question?

882
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 5: Did you go context?

883
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 6: Please?

884
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 5: Okay?

885
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 12: Well, I just was like went to my usual default

886
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 12: and said.

887
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 4: Go ask.

888
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 5: So what did Alecsa tell them?

889
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:24,760
Speaker 12: Well.

890
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 13: To spot a gold digger, you watch out for someone

891
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 13: who asks about what you own, like what you earn,

892
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 13: your stock options early on in your relationship. This is

893
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 13: specifically answering how to tell if someone is a gold digger.

894
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 5: Does he have a girl that likes someone he's wondering

895
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:40,399
Speaker 5: if she's a gold digger.

896
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 13: No, No, there was something that's about to say, but

897
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 13: he asked me, do not say this on the Bubby

898
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 13: Bone Show.

899
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 12: So I can't say what I was about to say,

900
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 12: but I can say this.

901
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 13: See how they respond when you ask them about their career.

902
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 13: For example, if they're happy to stay in a low

903
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 13: level job or not have one at all, they maybe

904
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 13: look for someone to fund their lifestyle.

905
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 6: So if you're wondering if someone's a gold digger, you're

906
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 6: supposed to go, so what do you feel like you're

907
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 6: gonna do with your career? And they're like, I'm chill

908
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 6: right here. I don't make much, I don't like it

909
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 6: that much, but I'm cool.

910
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 13: Gold digger, but I want to live this champagne life.

911
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,439
Speaker 5: But I also want to have got it right.

912
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 13: She even suggested, if you want to test out your partner,

913
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 13: give them an inexpensive but thoughtful, light hearted gifts, kind

914
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 13: of like a flower. And if they're a gold digger,

915
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 13: they'll dismiss it.

916
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 11: Cubic circonia.

917
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:34,280
Speaker 5: Well, no, that's a trick them.

918
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 11: Yeah, to make them think it's real.

919
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a trick them. Let's not to test them.

920
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 5: Let's a trick them.

921
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 13: Also, be cautious if your partner often has sudden emergencies

922
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 13: that cause them to need money from you, which is

923
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 13: a typical excuse used by gold diggers.

924
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 5: That's a swim, that's a scam. Yeah, yeah, what else

925
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 5: you got?

926
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 13: The true definition of a gold digger, in case anybody knows,

927
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 13: it's a person who is in a romantic relationship, marriage,

928
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 13: or whatever to a wealthy person is and their primarily

929
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 13: motivated by the desire for money, like they just want

930
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 13: to be that's all they want to Yeah, and I

931
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 13: have tips to avoid. Okay, gold diggers, don't pretend.

932
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 12: To be rich.

933
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 5: But what if you are, should you?

934
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 13: Well that's the next one is, don't show off, got it?

935
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 13: Don't mention that you're rich.

936
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,360

00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 3: Uh.

949
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 13: expensive cars are stored away. And then lastly, don't go

950
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 13: to fancy restaurants too often.

951
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,759

Speaker 9: She puts the expensive cars away.

00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 5: Maybe some of these tips you need to keep in

972
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 5: put in your pocket Trusby.

973
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:43,839
Speaker 13: If I go out with someone that is not motivated to.

974
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 12: Work, that's gonna be a problem.

975
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 13: I don't care how much they make as long as

976
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 13: they success doesn't mean money. But if they're passionate about

977
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 13: what they do and they actually like put forth effort.

978
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 11: But what are they're? Really cool? Yeah? Fine, really hot?

Speaker 12: No, I cannot that.

981
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 13: I would be zero percent attracted to someone that just

982
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,319
Speaker 13: wanted to just stay home all day.

983
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 18: Do you guys think that's why Lunchbox dresses the way

984
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 18: he does. Keep the gold diggers away.

985
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 5: He's married, right, What do you mean that's right?

986
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 6: I don't understand what's right, that's right about any of that,

987
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 6: all of it.

988
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 10: Like I want to keep the gold diggers away, but

989
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 10: also I mean gold digger. You can come be a

990
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 10: gold digger. You want separate bakinghouse, so you ain't getting it.

991
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 13: So his wife has a different account, so you would

992
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 13: buy them stuff.

993
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 10: I don't really buy my wife's stuff, I mean at all.

994
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 10: Just I couldn't tell you the last thing I bought my.

995
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 5: Wife wasn't one.

996
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 13: Didn't one of y'all do like if you're going out

997
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 13: with someone for the first time, you go.

998
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,840
Speaker 5: To a all time like first date. Let's go like

999
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 5: a little crappy taco place.

1000
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:52,760
Speaker 12: See how they respond.

1001
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 6: I'd never try to impress anybody. Also, I didn't have

1002
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 6: I didn't have very much money than either, So my point.

1003
00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 5: Then was all gold digger.

1004
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,799
Speaker 6: It was like, I'm not going to over extend myself

1005
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,839
Speaker 6: and go fancy for a couple of reasons. One because

1006
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 6: I only got it, and then two because I don't

1007
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 6: want them to think this is what normal is and

1008
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 6: their expectations be I right.

1009
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan

1010
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: number two.

1011
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 3: A listener emailed then to share some new power rankings

1012
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 3: for the show based on her opinions. And everybody is

1013
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 3: entitled to their opinion, So listener, Megan, you are entitled

1014
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 3: to that, and I wish you well. Even though you

1015
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 3: were not very kind to me, I still wish you well.

1016
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 3: That's all I'm gonna say, because, like I said, I

1017
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,359
Speaker 3: aired out my bad blood on Best Bits Part one

1018
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,359
Speaker 3: with Scuba Steeve Number four.

1019
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 6: Six months or so ago, a listener sent us her

1020
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 6: power rankings for this show. Hey, Mike D because you're

1021
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 6: the only one that has this because she emails them

1022
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 6: to you. Will you explain to our listeners what power

1023
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 6: rankings are.

1024
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 16: It's like based on who is the best on the

1025
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 16: show in this listener's opinion, Like if.

1026
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 5: There was a power ranking of NBA teams right.

1027
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 6: Now, probably Denver, Miamiami, and you could go down from there. Right,

1028
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 6: So this is just one listener who ranked all the

1029
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 6: members of the show. Last time, Amy was dead last,

1030
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,720
Speaker 6: and I did not think that was fair for the record.

1031
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 13: Okay, that hurts your feelings, Amy, Yeah, I don't really

1032
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 13: like ranking any of us, but to be last, and

1033
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 13: especially how long I've been here with all and the

1034
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 13: things I do, I'm like it.

1035
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 4: It just hurt.

1036
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 6: But it's also one listener, and different listeners have different

1037
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 6: bonds with different people at different times.

1038
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 11: Right, I agree, because I mean, you don't.

1039
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 9: Know how dumb she is.

1040
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 13: Well, I'm not saying anything about her. I just don't

1041
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:38,799
Speaker 13: like ranking us.

1042
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,720
Speaker 5: But go ahead, Okay, Well, what are the segment?

1043
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,400
Speaker 4: No, you can go ahead.

1044
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 7: Okay, it's nothing you're doing.

1045
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 5: Just let me ask you this. Amy was last last time?

1046
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 5: Is she last this time?

1047
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 6: Mike?

1048
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 19: She is not last?

1049
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 11: Okay, So what we will do.

1050
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 6: Then let's just go from top down, because I think

1051
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 6: the drama is really in the person who's last more

1052
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 6: than the top couple.

1053
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 16: I agree, Okay, I will say one thing. They did

1054
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 16: not rank Abby.

1055
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 11: She's unranked.

1056
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 9: She got left off, not forgettable.

1057
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 11: Huh.

1058
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 19: Okay, so this is Megan in California.

1059
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 6: The only person not left not put on purposefully is

1060
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:14,840
Speaker 6: Mike de because she knows he'll get the email and

1061
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 6: he could change.

1062
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 11: And Abby, I mean what, I don't know?

1063
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 12: Okay, whoever ends up last, I'm here for you. It's

1064
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 12: not fun.

1065
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 5: How many people made the list?

1066
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 19: Mike, there are seven people on the list.

1067
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 5: Who does she rank as the number one power ranking

1068
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 5: member of the show?

1069
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 19: Number one on the list?

1070
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 9: Bobby?

1071
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 11: Thank you? Sure, thank you?

1072
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 5: What does she say?

1073
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 16: He says, First of all, he's the only one I

1074
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 16: would consider a celebrity.

1075
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 19: His biggest strength, in my opinion, are.

1076
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 16: All his interview skills that he's excelled in lately, but

1077
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 16: not only that, he is the most well rounded out

1078
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 16: of anyone on the show. Without him to package everyone up,

1079
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 16: the show would be chaos.

1080
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 5: I mean, I couldn't agree with one.

1081
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 6: I mean with all that every single point agree on

1082
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,759
Speaker 6: a coin, So I say, put that on a coin.

1083
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 6: That's very nice. I don't think I was number one

1084
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 6: last time? Was that you were Ember one last night

1085
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 6: on the show.

1086
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 11: Yeah, it makes sense.

1087
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 5: I appreciate that, all right.

1088
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,520
Speaker 19: Number two at number two, it is Amy.

1089
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,799
Speaker 16: Wow, she says, Amy is the glue that keeps the

1090
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 16: show together. She's been so open with what's going on

1091
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 16: in her personal life. I also love seeing her branch out,

1092
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 16: expand your brand with live podcasts and acting.

1093
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:19,520
Speaker 11: Okay, good job, Amy, Amy at number two?

1094
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,439
Speaker 5: Lunchbox? Does that make you feel? With Amy at number two?

1095
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 9: I mean whatever, she jumped you. I mean whatever. We'll

1096
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 9: see where I end up. See how dumb this lady is?

1097
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 5: Mike's number three?

1098
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 19: It is a lunchbox.

1099
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 9: Okay, whoa, Yeah, smart lady, That's what I'm talking about.

1100
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 9: She's not as dumb as I thought.

1101
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 5: What does she say about him?

1102
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 16: Even though I find him irritating, I also find myself

1103
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 16: wanting to hear what he has to say next. I

1104
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 16: think if he actually took some initiative, he would get

1105
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 16: the things he complains about, not having.

1106
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 5: A couple backhanded compliments in there.

1107
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 7: But okay, we'll go with it.

1108
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 6: He's irritating and he complains, but she still likes him.

1109
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 6: At number three he got a bronze medal. Number four

1110
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 6: it is Eddie, she says. Eddie is like a fine

1111
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 6: wine that gets better with age.

1112
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 16: I wasn't the biggest fan of Eddie on my last rankings,

1113
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 16: but he's humor has grown on me. I moved him

1114
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 16: out of the friend zone and into my top five.

1115
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 11: Wow, I'll take it.

1116
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 12: Oh do we remember where he was last night?

1117
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 11: I don't remember.

1118
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:10,720
Speaker 19: Number five It is Scuba Steve.

1119
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,279
Speaker 16: He didn't make my list last time, but he has

1120
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,160
Speaker 16: definitely made himself known recently. While I don't agree or

1121
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,719
Speaker 16: believe all the things he says, I respect him for

1122
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 16: telling it how it is.

1123
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 6: I believe everything says and sometimes I find out crazy

1124
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 6: stories about I'm like what, But I believe everything he.

1125
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,359
Speaker 5: Says on the show.

1126
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 11: Oh same here.

1127
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 5: There are certain people I don't believe their stories. I

1128
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 5: think Ray clickbait.

1129
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 3: Ray.

1130
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 5: Sometimes his was some stuff that's unbelievable.

1131
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 11: A lot of made up stuff there.

1132
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, remember that, Ray, All the stories you told it,

1133
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 6: they're pretty accurate.

1134
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 5: As you need the country artists, they're all true.

1135
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 13: I think Ray thinks that they're accurate.

1136
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 10: I mean his are pretty accurate too, like, you know,

1165
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 4: I just need to.

1166
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:55,920

00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:03,839
Speaker 11: Can Morgan read it?

1172
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:04,240
Speaker 7: Okay?

1173
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 5: Give it to Morgan if she feels like there we go,

1174
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 5: or she could pass.

1175
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 9: I just got boom.

1176
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 11: It's like mean tweets and Morgan wants to read that.

1177
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 11: She can read it.

1178
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 5: That's fine, okay.

1179
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,319
Speaker 3: My mother in laws a fellow Canson and says that

1180
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 3: Morgan is a bad representation.

1181
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:25,720
Speaker 4: Of her people. Also, who are my people? Okay?

1182
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:27,720
Speaker 3: I personally don't hear her on the show that often,

1183
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 3: but when I do, I have to agree.

1184
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 4: Sorry, Morgan, that's that bad.

1185
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:32,280
Speaker 11: It's fine, okay.

1186
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 5: And my coming at number seven to go ahead and

00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:35,400
Speaker 5: read raise.

1188
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 19: It is Raymundo. My only complaint with Raymundo is that

1189
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 19: I don't get enough of him.

1190
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,440
Speaker 16: He's hilarious and says the most outlandish things that make

1191
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 16: me lool, but he's at the bottom of my list

1192
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 16: because I need more.

1193
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 11: I can agree with. Oh, that's good.

1194
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 5: I've always told you, I think you're a dynamite on

1195
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 5: the air.

1196
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 12: I gotta say, when I was seven, it wasn't that.

1197
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 13: I mean, now, I was gonna.

1198
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 5: Comfort compliment you at seven.

1199
00:48:58,719 --> 00:48:59,919
Speaker 12: I was going to comfort him.

1200
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,399
Speaker 13: But like that is she's just saying, she means, Ray,

1201
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 13: we need more of you.

1202
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 6: But so, hey, Ray, why are you mad Amy because

1203
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 6: he got a compliment at seven?

1204
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:08,919
Speaker 12: No, I'm not mad.

1205
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 13: I'm just saying I'm gonna comfort her disappointed. No, I'm

1206
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 13: saying it doesn't.

1207
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 11: Need comforting that.

1208
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 13: I'm glad she handled it that way because now Ray,

1209
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 13: this is good for him. I'm just saying that she

1210
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,240
Speaker 13: did not do that when I was seven.

1211
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 5: So does that mean Morgan actually last?

1212
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:23,359
Speaker 11: Yeah in a way.

1213
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,960

Speaker 5: next time.

1219
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,400

1239
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,600

00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,320
Speaker 6: college softball and I don't think hitting the ball like

1250
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:55,959
Speaker 6: a girl should be a negative thing, right neck, because

1251
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:56,800
Speaker 6: I'm watching girls.

1252
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:57,919
Speaker 5: Who are crushing the freaking ball.

1253
00:50:57,960 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 11: They hit it hard.

1254
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,919
Speaker 6: Yeah, So I think hitting like girl, throwing like a girl,

1255
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 6: that ain't really a thing because I know a lot

1256
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 6: of girls are way better athletes than any of us

1257
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,920
Speaker 6: dudes in here. So aside from that, Scoop Seve, apparently

1258
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:10,240
Speaker 6: he didn't look very athletic.

1259
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:11,359
Speaker 5: I think it probably would have been the thing.

1260
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 7: No, and to kind of pond what you're saying, the

1261
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,200
Speaker 7: best player of the game was a woman.

1262
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 11: It was or No.

1263
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, she played softball Alabama.

1264
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 11: She killed it.

1265
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 5: She was incredible my division once off ball.

1266
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:21,439
Speaker 7: I love watching her play.

1267
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 11: It was awesome.

1268
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 8: So yeah, to go onto that, But yes, I didn't

1269
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 8: play my best and just mostly just because I'm just

1270
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 8: not that good at it. I mean it was good

1271
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,839
Speaker 8: in the field, good at throwing and catching all that,

1272
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,399
Speaker 8: but my batting was it was Okay, at one pop

1273
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:33,240
Speaker 8: fly in a grounder.

1274
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 5: What position did you play?

1275
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,920
Speaker 8: I've switched between third base and right field, making any plays.

1276
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 7: I made no great plays.

1277
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 5: Well, you said you did good at fielding and throw.

1278
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 7: I was there, ready to go, and I threw the ball,

1279
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 7: ready to go.

1280
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 5: Okay, good.

1281
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,239
Speaker 8: Yeah, and I warmed up with Jerry Stackhouse. That was

1282
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 8: probably skighlight. That was really cool. Cool coach Manerbilt. Yeah,

1283
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 8: but the NBA player to me from the nineties, and

1284
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 8: he was.

1285
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 10: Geeking out, and Morgan was like, dude, we gotta go

1286
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:55,400
Speaker 10: get a picture with Scoob before the game starts.

1287
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,280
Speaker 9: Like, Morgan, you do not interrupt his childhood.

1288
00:51:57,880 --> 00:51:59,359
Speaker 5: Drain Jerry Stackhouse, that's pretty cool.

1289
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:00,959
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was cool, like playing catch a dad.

1290
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 5: I did want to break. I know that feeling. I

1291
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 5: played Castrin Nolan Ryan once.

1292
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,359
Speaker 11: Okay, cool, Yes, you get it warming up and I did.

1293
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:10,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I just didn't want.

1294
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 9: It to Enddel Diamond.

1295
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,640
Speaker 5: Round Rock Express. Oh yeah, we were doing a deal

1296
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:15,560
Speaker 5: there and you throw it hard.

1297
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 6: He was I mean, he didn't throw the no, but

1298
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 6: he was throwing and he threw just consistently strong.

1299
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 5: It was anyway moving off.

1300
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,360
Speaker 6: That I didn't want talk about the game, big celebrity

1301
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,480
Speaker 6: softball game last night, And I was looking at the

1302
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 6: promo and they were talking about the people on the

1303
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 6: people's team. For example, over on Team Riley Green, which

1304
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:41,360
Speaker 6: team are you guys on?

1305
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 9: And Scuba was on Team Riley Green?

1306
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 11: Got it?

1307
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 6: So on Team Jelly Roll, they talk about the people.

1308
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 6: There's Jelly Roll, there's Taylor Lewan who used to play

1309
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 6: for the Titans. There's Morgan number two, there's Heart, there's

1310
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 6: the whole list, and it was Morgan number two and

1311
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,319
Speaker 6: Lunchbox didn't show up till like the very end of

1312
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 6: the list.

1313
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,279
Speaker 10: It's like the people running the just don't I guess

1314
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 10: they don't really understand what they're doing. They don't understand

1315
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:08,719
Speaker 10: how to promote their event. Like when you are promoting it,

1316
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 10: you want your biggest names first.

1317
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,000
Speaker 5: But I think that's what they're doing in their mind,

1318
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 5: that's what they're doing.

1319
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 10: That's what I'm saying. Obviously they don't know what they're doing.

1320
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 10: They think like they have Morgan number two on there

1321
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 10: with Jelly Roll, Taylor Lawan, the biggest names. Like if

1322
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 10: you want the biggest names on that promo.

1323
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:29,400
Speaker 6: They put me, Okay, other than you My point is

1324
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,240
Speaker 6: they think that Morgan number two is a bigger way.

1325
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,879
Speaker 10: Crazy to actually think that, Like whoever did that? Their

1326
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 10: social media coordinators should be fired, like immediately.

1327
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,359
Speaker 5: So good showing last night showing people they were watching

1328
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:43,560

1332
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 6: that I saw? Oh, that was just one story that

Speaker 9: Like I was there, we were great.

1336
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,200

00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,280
Speaker 9: I just put him on my backpack and was like, hey, guys, I'm.

Speaker 5: Draw car that's a good point.

1350
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 6: I heard from my little Birdie that there was actually

1351
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,279
Speaker 6: kind of a I'm not gonna say a fight, but

1352
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 6: an uncuf between you two about this thing where Morgan

1353
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:42,440
Speaker 6: was being promoted more than you.

1354
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 9: No, no, I was just did that one promotion?

1355
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 10: I mean Morgan, who was the last person in the

1356
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,560
Speaker 10: stadium because so many people want to take.

1357
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,360
Speaker 5: Pictures in human form. Did you guys get into it

1358
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:50,799
Speaker 5: a little bit?

1359
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 12: Yeah?

1360
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,800
Speaker 3: He he literally we were sitting here in the studio

1361
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:56,760
Speaker 3: and he sees it for the first time and he looks,

1362
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 3: He's like, why are you on here?

1363
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 4: And I was like, because I'm playing in the game.

1364
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 3: And he starts throwing this whole fit, and everybody who

1365
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 3: walks in the studio goes, guys, why is she promoted

1366
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 3: more than me?

1367
00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:08,839
Speaker 12: It was this whole argument that he was mad that

1368
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:10,280
Speaker 12: I was getting promoted.

1369
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:10,399
Speaker 4: More than him.

1370
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 5: I heard it was sincere too, like he was really excellent.

1371
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 5: It's not why I take it out on her. It

1372
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:17,799
Speaker 5: has nothing to do with her.

1373
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,560
Speaker 10: Well, I was asking her like, don't you find it crazy?

1374
00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 10: Like this is unbelievable?

1375
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:22,880
Speaker 19: Why not just go?

1376
00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,000
Speaker 6: I wish I were up a little more. This is crazy,

1377
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:27,360
Speaker 6: not you're up above me, and that's stupid.

1378
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 9: What is I mean?

1379
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 10: Just go look at the social media presence alone. I

1380
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 10: dominate hers.

1381
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 11: What do you mean presence followers?

1382
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 9: If you want the most followers to just go look

1383
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,680
Speaker 9: at hers. In mind, I blow her out of the water.

1384
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:42,799
Speaker 5: So to say, she's also been on the show a

1385
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:43,839
Speaker 5: lot longer matter.

1386
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 12: Okay, I hear you, but that part should matter too.

1387
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 6: My hope would be that you would go, dang, this sucks,

1388
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 6: I'm not up there more, but not take it out

1389
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 6: on her because she was.

1390
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 5: She had nothing to do with it.

1391
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:53,839
Speaker 12: She didn't create it.

1392
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:59,280
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I just thought it was a bad look.

1393
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,320
Speaker 4: I was just a better player last year, I guess.

1394
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 4: I mean that has to do with this.

1395
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:04,360
Speaker 12: Last year, and you didn't.

1396
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:06,959
Speaker 10: Yeah see I did hit last year, but they didn't

1397
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:07,839
Speaker 10: they put me in the game.

1398
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:08,839
Speaker 4: I put you in the game.

1399
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 18: I love that Lunchbox just keeps playing the game, like

1400
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 18: you know, if he's so mad at this organization, don't

1401
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 18: play anymore. But he goes every single year and gets

1402
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,319
Speaker 18: hurt that they never talk about him or they make

1403
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:21,000
Speaker 18: him the announcer.

1404
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 6: Well, last year they didn't even ask him to play,

1405
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 6: and I got upset for him, and it was a

1406
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,799
Speaker 6: whole thing. And so he played and this year he

1407
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,360
Speaker 6: got invited to play, but now he's upset because he

1408
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 6: didn't get put up on the list.

1409
00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 5: High Now it's.

1410
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,120
Speaker 13: Also just to say something positive here. I saw someone

1411
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 13: post a video of Lunchbox going up to bat and

1412
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 13: they did his like walk up song, and he went

1413
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 13: up there and when they said all right and Lunchbox,

1414
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 13: I mean, there were loud screams.

1415
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 11: That's good.

1416
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 13: Yes, Like it seemed as though people, I don't know how.

1417
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 5: They were saying that.

1418
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:51,960
Speaker 9: People we know, we know.

1419
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 5: We're just saying, don't take it out on Morgan, right,

1420
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:55,080
Speaker 5: that's it.

1421
00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:55,520
Speaker 11: I know.

1422
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,720
Speaker 12: I was just I figured this would help him.

1423
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:01,000
Speaker 9: Just trust me. I know there's screams. I know who

1424
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:01,920
Speaker 9: gets big billings.

1425
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 5: You're not billing. You didn't get the billing. Billing means promotion.

1426
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:07,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, that was their fault.

1427
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, you may get.

1428
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:10,720

Speaker 4: My love was great?

1432
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,640
Speaker 3: Like I said, I was signing autographs, I was taking pictures.

1433
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:18,760
Speaker 6: Let's go to scuba, Steve, because scuba you're not either

1434
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 6: one of these two your thoughts.

1435
00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:21,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, I like that Amy said that Lifebuck's got a

1436
00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,200
Speaker 8: lot of roars and cheers, but Morgan got like ten

1437
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 8: times more.

1438
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 7: When she came up.

1439
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 8: It was like Michael Jordan came out and they had

1440
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,680
Speaker 8: her run for jelly roll and she ran ella quick.

1441
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,520
Speaker 8: Is she more of an athlete than he is?

1442
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 7: Way more of an athlete than both of us.

1443
00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 9: Oh my gosh, here we go. Didn't Morgan hit the

1444
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:37,800
Speaker 9: ball out of the infield?

1445
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaker 7: It doesn't matter where she hit it.

1446
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:40,680
Speaker 4: She was you to third base.

1447
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,440
Speaker 5: I did my job, No exactly.

1448
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 7: She got base hits, which is all that you guys needed.

1449
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 9: She didn't get a base hit.

1450
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 7: I thought, yes.

1451
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 3: No you did not.

1452
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 5: Okay, I'm not arguing about stats and a check game.

1453
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 7: Yes, Morgan have had more of a following there at least.

1454
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 11: Okay, So how did you play? Great?

1455
00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 10: One for two, scored our first run. We couldn't get

1456
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,480
Speaker 10: our team couldn't hit the ball. Finally I got the game.

1457
00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:01,800
Speaker 10: I gotta go one like you got the game winner? No, no,

1458
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,800

1462
00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 6: He said, and but we bring up Hardy strike out anything.

1463
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,200
Speaker 6: You were asking your game, But why would you take

1464
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 6: shots at other people?

1465
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:22,560
Speaker 9: Because I'm not taking shots at Hardy.

1466
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 5: You have no reason to bring up Hardy striking out.

1467
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 11: Like we would have never known unless.

1468

1512
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 10: Maybe how a jelly roll hit he grounded it to

1513
01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 10: like shortstop and Chris Lane.

1514
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 9: Booted it and that's error.

1515

01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:19,280
Speaker 9: We got moving, That's what I'm saying.

1517
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:20,920
Speaker 5: Like it was, there's no reason that can bring it

1518
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 5: crisly making an error, honestly, just.

1519
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,760

01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,560
Speaker 6: Bowl commercial that they were keeping secret.

1650
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:22,280

1803
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:14,320
Speaker 6: heroes to help veter in the United States Marine Corps

1804
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:18,320

Speaker 5: Thank you, good to see my friend.

1812
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:36,519
Speaker 17: Thanks for having me.

1813
01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 6: First of all, from all of us, we appreciate your

1814
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:41,519
Speaker 6: service obviously, and I want to talk about why you join,

1815
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,240
Speaker 6: when you join, and what happened to you specifically. And

1816
01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:46,439
Speaker 6: you know I always going to be sensitive when talking

1817
01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:48,840
Speaker 6: about what happened to you. So if I ask anything

1818
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:51,720
Speaker 6: that's a little too much, let me know. Okay, I

1819
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 6: appreciate it, Okay, cool.

1820
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:55,639
Speaker 17: I'm an open book. I'll talk about anything. I think

1821
01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 17: it's important for people to not only hear my story,

1822
01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:02,680
Speaker 17: but the opportunity I've had to educate people about my

1823
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 17: experience and what it's like to come home.

1824
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 5: So you enlisted, what year and where'd you live?

1825
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,559
Speaker 17: So I enlisted out of my hometown here in Rogers, Arkansas,

1826
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,559
Speaker 17: back in two thousand and three at the onset of

1827
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 17: the war. And back then it was an or it

1828
01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:20,439
Speaker 17: was you know, Operation of Rocky Freedom, when we were

1829
01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:23,680
Speaker 17: going to liberate the nation. So that resonated with me.

1830
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,960
Speaker 17: That spoke with me a lot. The idea of you know,

1831
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:30,200
Speaker 17: the bush doctor exporting democracy and going out and helping

1832
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:33,200
Speaker 17: the world in that way really really resonated with me.

1833
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:35,120
Speaker 17: And I thought, you know, if I'm going to join

1834
01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 17: the military, if if this is what my generation is

1835
01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:39,880
Speaker 17: going to do with this my generation's war, what what

1836
01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:42,400
Speaker 17: can I do that that I that I do well

1837
01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:45,160
Speaker 17: so that I could be an asset to my unit.

1838
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:47,200
Speaker 17: And I didn't want to just be another pair of

1839
01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:50,000
Speaker 17: boots in the sands. So I took my skills as

1840
01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:54,680
Speaker 17: a as a photographer and a storyteller and decided to

1841
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:58,200
Speaker 17: become a combat correspondent. So I started my training in

1842
01:12:58,360 --> 01:13:00,559
Speaker 17: De Floyd to a Rock in two thousand fire, spent

1843
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,760
Speaker 17: my time in Fallujah, and was there to tell the

1844
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:04,599
Speaker 17: Marine Corps story.

1845
01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:07,519
Speaker 6: What does that mean? Tell the Marine Corps story? As

1846
01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:10,240
Speaker 6: someone that's in the Marine Corps? Are you telling it

1847
01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:13,639
Speaker 6: to people like us? Are you telling it within both?

1848
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:16,200
Speaker 17: Actually? So you know, I had a camera in one hand,

1849
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:19,559
Speaker 17: a rifle in the other, and every Marine rifleman so

1850
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 17: and especially having you know, combat at the front of

1851
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:25,640
Speaker 17: my bill. At my job is to be expected. And

1852
01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:29,479
Speaker 17: so I would write for I would write press releases

1853
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:32,000
Speaker 17: for the general for the base newspaper, but then those

1854
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:35,160
Speaker 17: were also released online and back here in the States,

1855
01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:39,280
Speaker 17: and I did videography. I did several reports that would

1856
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 17: come through the satellites out of Fallujah and then back

1857
01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:43,719
Speaker 17: to the States and wind up on the evening news.

1858
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:47,360
Speaker 17: So you know, the Marine Corps story is very much

1859
01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:50,320
Speaker 17: in large part of the American story. And so you know,

1860
01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:54,680
Speaker 17: just telling those those personal connections between the troops and

1861
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:56,280
Speaker 17: the home.

1862
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:58,879
Speaker 6: Front did you find the fulfillment that you were searching

1863
01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:02,080
Speaker 6: for whenever you win an end to the service into

1864
01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 6: the Marines? You had been there, you did your training,

1865
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:06,880
Speaker 6: you were serving. Did you feel like this is what

1866
01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:08,280
Speaker 6: I was meant for while you were doing it?

1867
01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:12,320
Speaker 17: I really did. I really thought that not only was

1868
01:14:12,360 --> 01:14:15,880
Speaker 17: I in a place that spoke to me, that fed

1869
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:19,040
Speaker 17: me as an individual, where I could lean on my

1870
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:23,519
Speaker 17: skill set and be valued within my unit and toward division,

1871
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 17: I did. I enjoyed it. Best job on a Marine Corps,

1872
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:28,960
Speaker 17: hands down, best job. I mean, I loved it. I

1873
01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 17: mean everything that the Marine Corps had its hands in,

1874
01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:35,439
Speaker 17: I had the opportunity to go and tell that story.

1875
01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:38,240
Speaker 17: So if we were doing training and awesome high speed

1876
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:43,600
Speaker 17: you know, helicopter operations or you know mount training, or

1877
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:48,439
Speaker 17: a celebrity would come on base to entertain the troops,

1878
01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:50,240
Speaker 17: if that's where the story was, and that's where I

1879
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 17: would be in order to tell it.

1880
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:54,200
Speaker 6: So we had mentioned before you came on that you've

1881
01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,519
Speaker 6: undergone seventy surgeries throughout your recovery, But I do want

1882
01:14:57,560 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 6: to talk about what happened that has well made you

1883
01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:04,920
Speaker 6: have seventy surgeries. So what do you remember about the

1884
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:06,880
Speaker 6: day it happened to kind of walked me through it.

1885
01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:10,680
Speaker 17: I survived that blast. I walked away luckily. I don't

1886
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 17: know how I escaped it. Why would you tell you

1887
01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 17: the god honest truth. I mean, it took the lives

1888
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:20,200
Speaker 17: of six marines and I walked away with no broken bones,

1889
01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:24,360
Speaker 17: no shrapnel, really just a flesh wound. I had to

1890
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:28,479
Speaker 17: give my face and my flesh and a few fingers,

1891
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,600
Speaker 17: but you know, I had my life and got to

1892
01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:34,600
Speaker 17: walk away from it. And honestly, every day's been a

1893
01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:35,240
Speaker 17: blessing since.

1894
01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:38,200
Speaker 6: Well, was it an ied that exploded a lot of

1895
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:41,280
Speaker 6: times when you know, we talked to you know, people

1896
01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 6: that have been injured in war, it's either an id

1897
01:15:44,280 --> 01:15:46,920
Speaker 6: they didn't know they drove up on or is that

1898
01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:47,680
Speaker 6: what happened with you?

1899
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:52,680
Speaker 17: Yes? Yeah, we were moving from one objective to the

1900
01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:56,719
Speaker 17: other in our track. Just happened to hit a stack

1901
01:15:56,840 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 17: mine through a twenty six ton vehicle with marines chow

1902
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:04,439
Speaker 17: ammunition to us good ten feet in here, boom boom,

1903
01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:07,400
Speaker 17: can crash it back down, And we thought it was

1904
01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:09,400
Speaker 17: an ambush. We thought we were taking fire, But it

1905
01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:12,080
Speaker 17: turns out that the heat was so intense inside the vehicle,

1906
01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 17: all of our art that started to cook off, So

1907
01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:17,759
Speaker 17: all of our grenades or flares or fifty calamela, everything

1908
01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:19,639
Speaker 17: started to cook off. Inside it was chaos.

1909
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:22,120
Speaker 6: When you say cookof, does that mean like like shoot off,

1910
01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:24,320
Speaker 6: like firework, like if a fireworks stand ord to catch fire.

1911
01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:28,120
Speaker 6: But that's like it's like real, real stuff exactly. Oh man,

1912
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,479
Speaker 6: So what happens then? As in what do you remember?

1913
01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:35,160
Speaker 5: Next? Are you do? You wake up in a hospital?

1914
01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:41,639
Speaker 17: So at that point, uh, I'm on fire inside the vehicle.

1915
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:46,240
Speaker 17: I opened my eyes. I can see flashes of orange

1916
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:49,960
Speaker 17: and the pitch black smoke. My first reaction was to

1917
01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:52,960
Speaker 17: just gasp, you know, just shocked, and I inhaled all

1918
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:56,599
Speaker 17: this fire and debris, and later surgeons would dig out

1919
01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:05,120
Speaker 17: cardboard and glass out of my lungs, and panics set in,

1920
01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:07,519
Speaker 17: and I thought I got to get out. And by

1921
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:09,439
Speaker 17: that time, one of our sergeants had muscled ope in

1922
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,519
Speaker 17: the back hatch and the smoke started to flood out.

1923
01:17:12,600 --> 01:17:14,479
Speaker 17: Daylight kind of trickled in, and I found my try

1924
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 17: and I just dove and I just jumped out of

1925
01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:21,240
Speaker 17: the track. I landed in the road. I stopped and

1926
01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 17: looked at myself and I was still on fire, and

1927
01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:25,720
Speaker 17: so I started to roll and roll and roll, and

1928
01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:29,439
Speaker 17: I couldn't. I couldn't put myself out. I just you know,

1929
01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 17: exhausted myself trying to extinguish myself. And I thought, this

1930
01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:37,280
Speaker 17: is it. And this piece came over me and I thought, uh,

1931
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,160
Speaker 17: this is how my story ends. And you know, they say,

1932
01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 17: your whole life flashes before your eyes. Ironically for me,

1933
01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:48,760
Speaker 17: being a photographer, I just saw these like pictures. I

1934
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:51,080
Speaker 17: just saw these little still frames of all the people

1935
01:17:51,080 --> 01:17:53,479
Speaker 17: in my life that meant the world to me. And

1936
01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,599
Speaker 17: as I was trying to hold on to him, I

1937
01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:58,960
Speaker 17: woke up to the sound of my fellow marine Jill,

1938
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:01,479
Speaker 17: and putt you wow, put him out. You know, they

1939
01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:03,599
Speaker 17: run over, they dive on top of me, and they're

1940
01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:06,200
Speaker 17: you know, kicking turn on top and they're trying to

1941
01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:09,280
Speaker 17: put the flames out, and and they do, and then

1942
01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:11,599
Speaker 17: it's like they just evaporated. It's like they just disappear

1943
01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:13,800
Speaker 17: and they all go to help other marines. And I

1944
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:16,000
Speaker 17: wasn't wounded from the waist down, so I stood up

1945
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:19,680
Speaker 17: and of course in shock, and I thought, you know,

1946
01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:21,200
Speaker 17: I need to get to my camera. I need to

1947
01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 17: get to my my mission, and so I started to

1948
01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 17: walk back toward the track, and it was about then

1949
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 17: that our navy corman grabbed me by the collar and say, hey,

1950
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,160
Speaker 17: you're hurt. You need to come with me. And that's

1951
01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:35,439
Speaker 17: really where the story of my recovery began. And I

1952
01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:39,759
Speaker 17: tell that story, you know, uh, to different groups around

1953
01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,400
Speaker 17: the country and and I'll i'll point that that part

1954
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 17: out specifically, and how often we'll walk around in life

1955
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:48,559
Speaker 17: and not know how truly wounded we are and take

1956
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:51,280
Speaker 17: someone else to come up to us and extend their

1957
01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:54,639
Speaker 17: hand and their help and their aid. So he gets

1958
01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:57,680
Speaker 17: me to the casualty collection point, and then they got

1959
01:18:57,720 --> 01:19:00,800
Speaker 17: to get me on the on the chill right, and

1960
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:02,720
Speaker 17: it's like every war movie you've ever seen. Let's go,

1961
01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:04,280
Speaker 17: get them on the chop bottle, let's go, you know.

1962
01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:06,599
Speaker 17: They load me up on the litter and I start

1963
01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 17: running through a field to load me up onto the

1964
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:13,600
Speaker 17: helicopter to our air support. And sure enough, you know,

1965
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:18,519
Speaker 17: Murphy's law, things go wrong and somebody fell over and

1966
01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:20,559
Speaker 17: I came tumbling out. Now I'm back on the ground

1967
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:22,880
Speaker 17: and we were so close to the bird. I thought,

1968
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:26,120
Speaker 17: you know, I'll just walk, So I start walking toward

1969
01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:28,439
Speaker 17: the bird and Oliverene start yelling at me, Hey, hey, hey,

1970
01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:30,120
Speaker 17: let down, lay down here in shock. We got you,

1971
01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:32,559
Speaker 17: come on here in shock like I'm shocked that you

1972
01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:36,760
Speaker 17: dropped me right right. Get this marine some morphine. So

1973
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:38,559
Speaker 17: they got me out of the bird and got me

1974
01:19:38,600 --> 01:19:40,800
Speaker 17: out of there. They knocked me out and then I

1975
01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:44,240
Speaker 17: woke up about two days later in San Antonio.

1976
01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:47,880
Speaker 6: So you're in San Antonio and that's where they start

1977
01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:53,120
Speaker 6: to really work physically through your recovery. Second third degree

1978
01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:58,600
Speaker 6: burns to your arms and your face, ambuitated fingers PTSD

1979
01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:00,840
Speaker 6: long damage. I'm assuming the lung damage is from when

1980
01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 6: you were breathing in and the fire. That's all you

1981
01:20:03,160 --> 01:20:06,799
Speaker 6: took in there. Yes, so physically it has been extremely

1982
01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 6: to have seventy surgeries. That yeah, when you can't even

1983
01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:12,080
Speaker 6: remember every star, there's no way I remember seventy surgeries

1984
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:14,479
Speaker 6: and you can't even remember every surgery. That's how you

1985
01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:17,400
Speaker 6: know you've had a lot of surgeries right right eron.

1986
01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:19,719
Speaker 17: For sure.

1987
01:20:20,160 --> 01:20:22,080
Speaker 6: And so here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna work

1988
01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:24,760
Speaker 6: together with building homes for heroes, and our goal is

1989
01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:29,240
Speaker 6: to repay you and it'll never actually be repayment for

1990
01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:30,519
Speaker 6: what you gave to this country.

1991
01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 5: And our goal is to just simply build a house.

1992
01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:38,120
Speaker 6: Building a house that is easier for you to live in,

1993
01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:42,320
Speaker 6: easier for what you're going through, easier for your family.

1994
01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:45,160
Speaker 5: And so what we're going to do.

1995
01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:47,759
Speaker 6: Because you told us your story and because you served,

1996
01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,400
Speaker 6: is we're going to get with our listeners and we're

1997
01:20:51,400 --> 01:20:53,280
Speaker 6: going to say this is Aaron's story.

1998
01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:55,639
Speaker 5: If you guys would like to help, can you help?

1999
01:20:55,800 --> 01:20:57,920
Speaker 6: And over the past six years we've been able to

01:20:57,920 --> 01:20:59,960
Speaker 6: do just that, and so we've chosen you this year
