00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: Welcome to episode five point thirty nine with Emma Slater

2
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: from Dancing with the Stars, one of the professionals, Randy

3
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 1: Jackson from American Idol, Name that tune and then basically

4
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: I do frequently ask questions, so FAQ's here at the

5
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: end of this podcast, but I do want to start

6
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 1: with Emma. She is the greatest. I just messaged her

7
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: almost like, hey, will you come on? By the way,

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars premiered on Tuesday of this week,

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: and it airs every Tuesday at eight pm Eastern and

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: Pacific on ABC and then on Disney Plus. You can

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: watch it as well, and so you'll hear from her accent.

12
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: She's originally from England. She has a twin sister. We

13
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: talked about that her sister is not a dancer. I

14
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: don't know how long she danced, if she did it all,

15
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: but to me different whenever twins aren't doing the same

16
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: type of thing. I think her sister's a designer. But

17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: Emma was the friendliest to me when I would doing

18
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: my season. She was there with John Schneider, he was

19
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: the guy from Duke's Hazard, and they didn't last as

20
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: long as we did. I mean I won so I

21
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,839
Speaker 1: guess except for three other people, nobody did.

22
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: But she was so supportive because she.

23
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: Knew I was struggling the entire time, and of all

24
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: the people still left on the show.

25
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 2: As far as professionals, she's what I root for. She

26
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: is my favorite.

27
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: She has won the show before, and I think I

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: really got to know her a lot too whenever we

29
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: were touring, because we worked out together, meaning we would

30
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: dance up in the facility, and they have all these

31
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: rooms that are close together, and it's not even that

32
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: you're in the same room training, but you're in rooms

33
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: that connect, and so when you go into the lobby

34
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: to like eat or drink water or anything, that's kind

35
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: of where you hang out. And so between that and

36
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: then you know, just touring and when you tour, you're

37
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: just on a bus. And I did a couple of

38
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: shows and was out for like a week with them,

39
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: So pretty cool. She has done so so much more

40
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: than dance on Dancing with the Stars, which is kind

41
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: of how you get to be a professional. You really

42
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: have to be accomplished, and she talks about that in

43
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: this and I think hopefully it gives people that maybe

44
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: you're just casual fans of Dancing with the Stars a

45
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: better idea of who she is. Again, she's such a

46
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: great person, and so we're gonna start with Emma Slator

47
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 1: and then we'll come back with Randy Jackson.

48
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go, Hello Emma.

49
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 3: Oh Bobby, how are you.

50
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: It is so good to see, although it's weird because

51
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,119
Speaker 1: I know we haven't spoken in a while. But since

52
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: you follow people on social media, you feel like you

53
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 1: kind of know what's going on with their life. So

54
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: I don't feel I know, I don't feel like it's

55
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: been like this long gap because I still am keeping

56
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: up with you.

57
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: But I hope you're doing awesome.

58
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 4: I'm doing great. But you know what, I also think

59
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 4: that depends on the people too. You're always so personable

60
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 4: and we always got on so well that you know,

61
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 4: when you just like, you know, oh it's Bobby. You know,

62
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 4: you click back into like talking and friendship. It's like

63
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: really easy.

64
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: Well I wish I could see in person, but I'm

65
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: so happy that you came on with me. Mostly, I

66
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: kind of want to get an idea of two things. One,

67
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: I was reading all the comments about how people were

68
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: upset that you were teamed with Andy I love Andy Richt.

69
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm a massive fan. You saw the comments. What are

70
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: your thoughts on how people are reacting? Do you being

71
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: team with Andy? Well?

72
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 4: I saw the comments and I thought my first thought

73
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 4: was I really hope that Andy isn't disheartened by reading this,

74
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 4: because for me, I think Andy is the best partner

75
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 4: for me. I truly do. I have got to that

76
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 4: point in my life. And also, I've done the show

77
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 4: now for nineteen seasons. I know where my let's just say, like,

78
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 4: my expertise are, and I know what I love to do,

79
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 4: and I really love to see the improvement and the

80
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 4: growth in my partners, and that's what I'm probably best at.

81
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 4: I'm probably best at bringing out people that are not dancers,

82
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 4: that are potentially even nervous to do the show and

83
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 4: to give them the best possible experience. And trust me,

84
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 4: all the pros give their partners and such an incredible

85
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 4: experience and the best one that they could possibly do.

86
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 4: But Andy, to me is the best partner. I love

87
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 4: being partnered with the funny guys. I love being partnered

88
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 4: with the personalities. I love being partnered with the people

89
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 4: that have this special quality about them, and so I'm thrilled,

90
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 4: and I always was thrilled that I had Andy as

91
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:20,239
Speaker 4: a partner.

92
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 2: Do you think that that's why they probably do that?

93
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: Is because they know that you will do so well

94
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: with getting them at least like introduced to the regimen,

95
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: and they may not feel comfortable because you are the

96
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: most personable person of that whole crew, at least according

97
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: to me.

98
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: Do you feel like that's why they do that.

99
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 4: I think that they know that I the producers, They

100
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 4: know that I will lean into kind of the quirky

101
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 4: I'm a quirky person by nature. Anyway, I'll lean into

102
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 4: the fun, I'll lean into the into and everybody does,

103
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 4: by the way, I just want to stress that everybody

104
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 4: really does embrace the whole experience. I'm also potentially one

105
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 4: of the more patient pro and it just happens that

106
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 4: that's something that I really love to do and I

107
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 4: get really excited about, like sharing an experience with a

108
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 4: celebrity who is probably not a dancer and is more

109
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 4: of a personality type. And so I think that's probably

110
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 4: why they do it.

111
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: There's such an important part of the relationship between the

112
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 1: pro and the celebrity because if you do not have

113
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: a dynamic that works, it can be miserable.

114
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: Would you agree with that?

115
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, four hours in a room with someone if you're

116
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 4: not connecting is really hard and it can be draining.

117
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 3: I haven't really had that experience.

118
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously there's people that you literally line up

119
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 4: the room and it goes really fast. So I feel

120
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 4: very lucky. But you need to get on with your partner.

121
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 4: You also just need to find out find a way

122
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 4: to connect. And I think it's your your job as

123
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 4: a pro to make your celebrity feel safe and find

124
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 4: a way to connect with them and just talk to

125
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 4: them and get to know them. When Andy and I

126
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 4: get into the rehearsal room in the morning, we stretch.

127
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 4: We get on those roll of foam things on my

128
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 4: light just went out. Sorry don't look as cute now.

129
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 4: But we get on the like fola roam things and

130
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 4: we stretch and we talk and I love to know

131
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 4: about his family. And what I really like about Andy

132
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 4: is like he asked me questions all the time, like

133
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 4: you know, how are you, how did you get started?

134
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 3: You know, how is everything in your personal life?

135
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 4: Like I want to see pictures of your house. He

136
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 4: really likes to connect in that way, and then by

137
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 4: the time we get up and dance, I feel like

138
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 4: I'm dancing with my friend and my actual, you know,

139
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 4: teammate in all of this and not just someone who's

140
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 4: there for the common goal of like, you know, being

141
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 4: on a show.

142
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: You've done nineteen seasons. That is that's so many partners.

143
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 4: Yes, off the top of my head. I don't know

144
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 4: if that's accurate. I think it is. It's about nineteen seasons.

145
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, who was your first ever partner?

146
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 4: It was Bill Engvil, who is a comedian again, comedian

147
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 4: simil a type of age to Andy. So I was like,

148
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 4: oh my god, he was my favorite. So I was like,

149
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 4: oh my god, this is like Bill Engvill season. I'm

150
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 4: so excited for it, and it feels I just love

151
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 4: that type of person. It feels nostalgic to me. Bill

152
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: Engvill is a comedian that used to work with blue

153
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 4: Collar Comedian group. That was their name, I believe, unless

154
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 4: my memory doesn't serve me well. And he was just

155
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 4: like the loveliest guy. Would turn up in Volkswagen like

156
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 4: you know van and was like quirky, a little bit surfer.

157
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 3: It was really nice.

158
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 2: You were in the troop before you became a pro.

159
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I did three seasons of Troop, which I found

160
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 4: to be really beneficial because it can be really mad.

161
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 3: You know, the choreography part of.

162
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 4: The show is really stressful and some people don't realize

163
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 4: we have to handle the choreography. You have to understand

164
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 4: where the cameras are in the room, and you have

165
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 4: to direct your choreography so that it can be clearly

166
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 4: shot and it reads well and it has the most impact.

167
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 4: And there's definitely certain ways that you do that. So

168
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 4: being on Troope really allowed me to watch the other

169
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 4: professional dancers choreograph and work with their celebrity. It gave

170
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 4: me a really good understanding of how the show works

171
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 4: from week to week, who the producers are, what the

172
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 4: room looks like, everything.

173
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 3: I thought it was so valuable.

174
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 2: How does it work where you find out the dance

175
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 2: you're doing and then do you just have to start

176
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: choreographing it yourself as soon as you hear the type

177
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: of dance you're doing.

178
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,719
Speaker 4: Yes, the music plays a really big part of it

179
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 4: for me, for everybody, Again, I think I think some

180
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 4: people are different in the sense of they might have

181
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 4: specific style that they want to go for. For me,

182
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 4: I need to hear the music and then I can

183
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 4: visualize certain things in my head and then I'll stand up.

184
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 4: Sometimes it's embarrassing because I'll be at like a cafe

185
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 4: and I'll get the email with the audio track on,

186
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 4: and I'll just like listen to it because i want

187
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 4: to make sure that it's okay and it's what I'm imagining.

188
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 4: And then I'll get up and I'll try a few

189
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 4: steps and then I'll remember I'm in Starbucks. Sit back down.

190
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 4: But that's always been my life. But yeah, so it's

191
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 4: really down to the music for me.

192
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: So when you get to the room day one, a

193
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: lot of times are you still figuring out what you're

194
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: going to do while you're teaching that celebrity what you're doing?

195
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: Is that ever part of the process?

196
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, day like day one of the show. Is that

197
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 3: what you mean?

198
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, day one of like the week when you learn

199
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: you're going to do whatever, Dan, if it's a jive

200
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: and you have your song. Oh, when you go in

201
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: that day one of practice, do you have it fully

202
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: mapped out? Or do you have it mostly mapped out

203
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: and you're figuring it out while you're in there?

204
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 4: Bobby, Like, the goal is to have it like fully

205
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 4: mapped out. But you know it's like stress City, so

206
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 4: the show will be for us now. It used to

207
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 4: be on Monday, now it's on Tuesday. So we come

208
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 4: in on Wednesday and the pros have probably you've been

209
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 4: safe the night before.

210
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 3: You already have your music. You know you're going to

211
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 3: do jive.

212
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 4: Let's say you've already got it choreographed, because you need

213
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 4: to have it choreographed before you go into it because

214
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 4: you can't really just try things on them, like you

215
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 4: need to have like a plan, so you can't try

216
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 4: things and change it.

217
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 3: But you need a plan.

218
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 4: So you go in on the Wednesday and it's all choreographed.

219
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 4: But the you know, production are trying to do a

220
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 4: ton of interviews. You're also trying to get social. They've

221
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 4: also had like a really long day the day before.

222
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 4: All you're thinking about is like chucking this choreography into

223
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 4: their brain so that when they go to sleep they

224
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 4: have something solid to wake up to and then come

225
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 4: in and build on the next day. You just have

226
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 4: to like chuck things at them, and it's going to

227
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 4: be kind of like disjointed, and a lot of changes

228
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 4: are going to happen. For the first like three maybe

229
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 4: four days, and then by the weekend you get into

230
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 4: like really solidly running it and you have your dance.

231
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: Who was the most advanced partner you had from the

232
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: beginning where you thought, wow, they know what they're doing

233
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: and we can actually change as the week goes.

234
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 4: That would be James van der Beek. So I won

235
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 4: with Rishard Jennings and he was excellent, no dance experience,

236
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 4: but just had something very special. But James van der

237
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 4: Beeek came into the show and he had done gymnastics

238
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 4: before and he was an absolute danced enthusiast, had performed

239
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 4: on stage, but not actually taught like learnt dancing.

240
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 3: But he was just a natural. He had an ability,

241
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 3: and he had a presence and he knew how to stand.

242
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 3: So he loved it.

243
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 4: He threw himself in it, and I thought, wow, like

244
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 4: he was very trainable, he was flexible, he loved contemporary

245
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: and so he was probably the most versatile dancer that

246
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 4: I've ever had without even still having formal training.

247
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: That reminded me because I was thinking, I was just

248
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: talking to somebody about you.

249
00:11:58,840 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: It was James.

250
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: He lives in Texas now and I was in Austin

251
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: and we were together and he was like, hey, you

252
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: know Emma. I was like, I love Hima. Emma's like

253
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: the one that I like that's on the show still

254
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: that I care about the most. And he was like,

255
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: oh my god. And we talked about you for like

256
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: fifteen That's exactly who it was.

257
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 2: It was James.

258
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: I had no idea that he knew how to dance

259
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: or that he had any background to dance at all.

260
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 4: He had like it was interesting because he had a

261
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 4: background in gymnastics, so he and he was just natural,

262
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 4: Like he was the type of person that would, you know, again,

263
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,839
Speaker 4: be playing with his kids in the garden. And I've

264
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,199
Speaker 4: been to see him in Austin too, a beautiful place

265
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 4: that they live in, like great ranch and the kids

266
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 4: are like outside of the time, he'd be playing with

267
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 4: them and he'd be kind of like moving around and

268
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 4: dancing with them and just he would have no inhibitions

269
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 4: when it came to movements. So it just made for

270
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 4: an incredible mover, especially when it came to contemporary.

271
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 3: You know, he just knew what to do.

272
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: So who was it that started from the lowest And

273
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: maybe they didn't win, but you had the most growth

274
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: and maybe not even growth as a dancer, but you

275
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: were so proud of when it was over that it

276
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: almost made you emotional.

277
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 4: Reginald vel Johnson last season, I mean, for me, he

278
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 4: was and is somebody so special and he came onto

279
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 4: the show was so endearing and again we connected straight away.

280
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 4: And the second that I saw him move I thought

281
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 4: to myself, this is going to be potentially the most

282
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 4: challenging season for movement that I've ever had. But he

283
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 4: was so lovable and so special that the gross that

284
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 4: he had in the show, because to me, the show

285
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 4: is a journey. It is a dance show, but people

286
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 4: don't realize it's so much more than that the end

287
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 4: of the day. It's an entertainment show at its core.

288
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 4: So I believe that Reginald vel Johnson came onto the

289
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 4: show and really made so many people fall in love

290
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 4: with him with his charm and his personability.

291
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 3: Is that a word personal work?

292
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 2: You're English works?

293
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 5: Yeah?

294
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 3: An yeah, right, Yeah.

295
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 4: I believe that he came on and just was so

296
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 4: lovely and wonderful and game that even if he did

297
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 4: and we did count it was sixteen steps in the

298
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 4: first dance, I was proud of those sixteen steps. I

299
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 4: was so proud of him no matter what he did,

300
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 4: and we weren't nervous because I knew whatever he was

301
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 4: going to do, it was he was going to own it,

302
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 4: and he might forget some steps, but you know he

303
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 4: was going to be there and who's going to give

304
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 4: it his all and people would love him for it,

305
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 4: and people celebrated that kind of quality in a person.

306
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 4: So I was super proud of him.

307
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: People will wonder what you're saying to your partner while

308
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: you're dancing. What are you saying to your partner while

309
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: you're dancing on television?

310
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 4: Well, everything, So I'm saying the whole choreography. So we

311
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 4: just Andy and I just did our wide shot. And

312
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 4: you remember that, Bobby, that's that part in the week

313
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 4: where you get that wide angle video of your entire

314
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 4: dance to music so that the directors can map out

315
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 4: all the cameras. So we just did our video where

316
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 4: we did the dance to music, and you can hear

317
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 4: the music, but you can hear me screaming on top

318
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 4: of the music for the most part, and it'll be

319
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 4: things like and I won't scream it at you because

320
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 4: that would not be pleasant for your viewers. But it

321
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 4: would be things like I say twinkle toes at one

322
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 4: point because it gives him the visual of like fast feet,

323
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 4: I say, tall hand on head, I'll say quick, I'll

324
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 4: say have fun. Because there's a moment where I asked him,

325
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: I said, what does this step? How do you become

326
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 4: more free in this step? And he says, oh, it

327
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 4: makes me think of having fun. So every time we

328
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 4: get to the step, I say have fun and he

329
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 4: does it like he really comes alive. So I need

330
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 4: to keep giving him, and usually all my partners a

331
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 4: lot of structure during the show, during the dance by

332
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 4: you know, vocal cues, and it helps them. If I

333
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 4: ever really stop that, it becomes a bit of a problem.

334
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 4: I've tried a couple of times, but it's much better

335
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 4: for them when they have kind of all angles like

336
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 4: support at least at least like you know a lot

337
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 4: of my partners.

338
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 2: Did you start ballet at a young age?

339
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 3: I did, but I can't really own that because I quit.

340
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 3: I was five or six, and I have a twin sister,

341
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 3: so we started together and we started ballet.

342
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 4: But I just had so much energy. I just wanted

343
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 4: to run everywhere. I didn't like how strict it was.

344
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 4: You know, ballet can be really strict and regimented, and

345
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 4: it was all about positions and I I wasn't ready

346
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 4: for that kind of strict just you know, not being

347
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 4: able to move my body. It was just the wrong

348
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 4: form of dancing for me personally. So I decided. I

349
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 4: told my mom that I didn't like it. I didn't

350
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 4: want to go back, and I don't remember how long

351
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 4: I went, but it was not long enough to get

352
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 4: like a foundation. But then I started borom dancing when

353
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 4: I was ten, and it was everything. I watched this

354
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 4: girl drop into the splits and enjoying a performance, and

355
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 4: I was like, oh my gosh, this is the best

356
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 4: dancing ever. So then I signed up and and that

357
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 4: was history.

358
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 2: Did you become obsessed as a teenager where that's all

359
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 2: you did?

360
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 3: Yes.

361
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 4: I was that kid in school that had, like, you know,

362
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 4: the life that sounds awful, but you know, an entire

363
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 4: separate life outside of school. So I had my school friends,

364
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 4: and I actually really enjoyed school. But then I would

365
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 4: just go and just be I'd slick my hair back

366
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 4: and I'd be this really dedicated dance at the weekend

367
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 4: like dancer at the weekend, and I would have to travel.

368
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 4: My parents were amazing. They would drive me three hours

369
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 4: in England. There's a place called Whole and that's where

370
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 4: my partner would live and it was three hours away,

371
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 4: so they would drive me sometimes on a school night

372
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 4: and then back again. It was so much dedication from

373
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 4: them that I owe them so much. But I was

374
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 4: definitely that person.

375
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: Yes, when did you realize you could actually do this

376
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: as a career.

377
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 4: When I was sixteen, I had like a predicament because

378
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 4: I had some choices. I could stay on school and

379
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 4: I wanted to do psychology, or that's probably what I

380
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 4: would have chosen. I also wanted to go to a

381
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 4: performing arts school in London, and I got in, but

382
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 4: it was so expensive, really and I didn't want to

383
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 4: put my parents through having to pay for that. And then,

384
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 4: just as life does and life has you know, has

385
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 4: you held, I got offered a touring show that was

386
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:26,919
Speaker 4: kind of like Indefinitely was a rolling on show that

387
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 4: paid every week and it was really decent pay for

388
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 4: me at the time as a sixteen year old. It

389
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 4: meant that I could dance every day. I toured England

390
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 4: and then we started to go internationally a little bit,

391
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 4: and they also wanted to take my partner with me,

392
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,640
Speaker 4: my professional dance partner, so we got to practice every day.

393
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 4: We didn't have to travel anymore. So I left school

394
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 4: and that's what I did, And it meant that my

395
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 4: parents didn't have to pay for my lessons anymore because

396
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 4: I could practice with my partner and I could pay

397
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 4: for them myself. And that's really That was my first

398
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 4: ever job, and it was dancing. And so from there,

399
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 4: an agent approached me and I just said yes. I

400
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 4: just kind of said yes to opportunities as they came up,

401
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 4: and I realized I had not really chosen it. It

402
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 4: had chosen me, which sounds cliche. But I just kept

403
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 4: going and kept dancing, and more opportunities kept coming up,

404
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 4: and before I know it, I was a dancer.

405
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: Was it odd for your parents for their daughter just

406
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: to travel and tour as a dancer at sixteen, seventeen

407
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: years old?

408
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 3: It was really sad for my mom.

409
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 4: She found it difficult to let go of me, and

410
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 4: I remember specifically her dropping me off in London one

411
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 4: day when I basically started my first day of this

412
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 4: big job, and we say goodbye, and she was crying,

413
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 4: and I remember it, and she still talks about it.

414
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,479
Speaker 4: She still says, oh, I left my baby so early,

415
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 4: and it was ultimately it was the right thing to do.

416
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 3: It really, to start so early.

417
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 4: Into something I was so passionate. I was very fortunate.

418
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 4: But it did mean that my parents and my twin

419
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 4: you know, we were a family of four, and then

420
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, I was off and I was

421
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 4: traveling and I was with a dance family.

422
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 3: So it was a big shark.

423
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: What do you say to people who have birthdays on

424
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: holidays like my wife's birthday, it's like right after New

425
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 1: Year's And so I've really tried to do a great

426
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: job of separating the holiday from the birthday because it

427
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: can get lumped in with the holiday. Now, this has

428
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: been a big part of your life because your Christmas birthday.

429
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 4: Right, yus. I'm so happy that you asked me that question.

430
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 4: And by the way, say hi to your wife for me.

431
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 4: Give her a big hug. When I was younger, me

432
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 4: and my twin sister thought that having a birthday on

433
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 4: Christmas Day was really cool, and then we realized, well,

434
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 4: hang on, we're getting we're getting kind of jipped because

435
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 4: everybody celebrates Christmas, which is great.

436
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 3: You have the day off, but it's not really your day.

437
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 4: And now I'm old, I'm getting older, I'm like, I

438
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 4: really don't necessarily care that much for birthdays for my birthday,

439
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 4: so it's good again. But yeah, we we used to

440
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,360
Speaker 4: have the thing where people would buy one big present

441
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 4: for both of us for Christmas and for Birthday and

442
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 4: then we just share it. I don't think at the

443
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,719
Speaker 4: time it was that big of an issue, but I

444
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 4: don't mind it now I don't mind it. And I

445
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 4: actually had somebody the other day tell me, oh, Christmas

446
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 4: Birthday is really interesting because they said to me that

447
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 4: the whole world has this very positive energy on Christmas morning.

448
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 4: I was born on Christmas morning has this really high

449
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 4: energy because it's Christmas Day and the kids are waking

450
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,120
Speaker 4: up and they're so excited and it's just everybody's kind

451
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 4: of at peace.

452
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 3: And then when you're born on that day, you kind

453
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 3: of like take that energy with you.

454
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 4: And I was like, oh, I would love to think that,

455
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: but it comes with its challenges.

456
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 3: But you always have the day off.

457
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point. You always have the day off. Yeah, yeah,

458
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: that's good. It's tough though, because I really and my

459
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,639
Speaker 1: wife's the same. She's not a big birthday person. But

460
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,239
Speaker 1: as you get an adult, right, it's not as much

461
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: about the cake. It's mostly about the people that you love.

462
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: But I still try to do a great job at

463
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 1: separating them because I do want her to feel like

464
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: special with it being her day. And I know in

465
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 1: school she was not at school when it was a

466
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: birthday and everybody was just like, well, your day. Your

467
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: birthday's at right after New Year's so we'll just celebrate

468
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 1: it all together. But I wondered how you dealt with

469
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: that as a kid.

470
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's hard.

471
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 4: I'm so glad that you to like separate it because

472
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 4: it's nice to do that. I don't really know what

473
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 4: it feels like to have a birthday. It's really just

474
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 4: Christmas for me.

475
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 2: Oh no, that's so sad.

476
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 3: I love it. It's what's It's fine.

477
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 4: I have my twin and we like it's funny because

478
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 4: we like at our ages up.

479
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 3: Together, so we always say, oh, we're seventy eight, you know.

480
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: So a couple more dancing questions now as far as

481
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 1: the show, and I was talking to a producer friend

482
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: of mine who works at a different network, and he

483
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: was like, hey, when you did that show, did you know?

484
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,120
Speaker 1: And I was like, I knew nothing the whole time,

485
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: Like they keep everything from me because there are actual laws,

486
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: because you're competing for money, Like you don't really know

487
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: anything as it's happening.

488
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 4: Right, No, we don't know anything as it's happening, for sure.

489
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 4: I mean I feel like, are you're talking about the producers.

490
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,120
Speaker 1: I'm talking about you knowing where you finished, how many

491
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: votes you got, if you're in the bottom before they

492
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: tell you.

493
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 2: If that you know, you know nothing? Right?

494
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 5: Oh?

495
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 4: No, no, nothing. And so when you're standing there, you

496
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 4: know when that music comes on at the end of

497
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 4: the night and it's like elimination and they put the

498
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 4: red music on. It's so dramatic. You really are finding

499
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 4: out at that point, you know, if you're in the

500
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 4: bottom two or if you're going home. You know nothing beforehand,

501
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 4: there's like no leaks, nobody tells you anything. And then

502
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 4: I've never they're so good the dancer of self producers.

503
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 4: I've never had any known any information about where people's

504
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 4: votes were or where you stack up. It's kind of

505
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 4: like just blind, you know, you're just dancing and you're

506
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 4: hoping that it works out.

507
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 3: But people don't, you know.

508
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 4: The voting is so important, so important, and it literally

509
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,239
Speaker 4: makes or breaks people. And I've heard scenarios where you know,

510
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 4: it might have been so close, but for some reason,

511
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 4: this person had like a massive jump in the votes

512
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 4: and it ended up saving them. So we hear situations

513
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 4: like that, but we never hear any information about where

514
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 4: you are placed.

515
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 3: In the competition. We just don't know.

516
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 4: And even the leaderboard, you can't really base it off

517
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 4: of that because no one knows what the votes are.

518
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: Whenever you won with Richard, do you remember them announcing

519
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: your name as the winners.

520
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 4: Yes, it's so funny that you say this, Bobby, because

521
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 4: go back and watch it. Okay, I want to tell

522
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 4: you a story when when they announced this as winners,

523
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 4: I was standing with Rishard on Tom Bergerard's Bergeron's left

524
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 4: hand side, and right before they announced it, my like,

525
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 4: I mean, maybe four seconds before he says our name,

526
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 4: my body starts doing this weird like celebration and my

527
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 4: mouth and you.

528
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 3: Can see it for a split second. My mouth kind

529
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 3: of goes and then I stop, and then I'm like, why,

530
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 3: why did I do that?

531
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: Why?

532
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 3: Like I just did something really weird involuntary.

533
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 4: There was this surge of energy that did this and

534
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 4: then I and then I went back down because I

535
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 4: realized there's nothing's happened, like you're you didn't hear anything.

536
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 4: And then and then they said our name, and then

537
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 4: it went back and watched and it literally is just

538
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 4: a little it's a little mouth thing, but the energy

539
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 4: at that point that I felt.

540
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 3: Something my body.

541
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 4: Something happened where I maybe heard them in the boost

542
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 4: into the earpiece or something, but my body started celebrating

543
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 4: and my mind had no idea.

544
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 3: What was happening. It was like the weirdest thing.

545
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 4: And then, of course the pictures they take and I

546
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 4: don't know if this is your experience too, the pictures

547
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 4: they take of you when you win. I looked at

548
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,479
Speaker 4: Trocia like my mouth was, oh, I was screaming. I

549
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 4: looked like I was like scared some really bad photo.

550
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 4: But Rishad deserved it so much, and he looked like,

551
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 4: you know, he just put his arm in the air

552
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 4: and it was such an amazing moment for him, so

553
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 4: and deserved it like a lot. But you know, did

554
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 4: you have the same experience where they took a picture

555
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 4: of you after you won and you were like, oh

556
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 4: my gosh, I look crazy.

557
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 2: Ah yeah, all of it felt crazy.

558
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 1: I just I have shocked eyes in every picture because

559
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: I was genuinely shocked. So my eyes are a little

560
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,360
Speaker 1: too wide open in every single picture because I'm like, wait,

561
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: what is this some sort of prank show? Because even

562
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: I felt that, so yeah, it was all. It was

563
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: all bizarre, Like I remember too, Yeah, like hearing when

564
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,919
Speaker 1: they said my name, all I heard was and I

565
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, Yeah, that was it for me.

566
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 4: It's an amazing feeling, you know, when you've gone through

567
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 4: so much work and then you're there at the end

568
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 4: and you're just hoping that they say, you know, the

569
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 4: start of your name and then you can just like

570
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 4: celebrate and have Thanksgiving and then rest.

571
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: Finally. It's such an amazing experience.

572
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: Well, I wish you the best of luck and the

00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 6: Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor,

590
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 6: and we're back on the Bob Cast.

591
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: All right, So this is an interesting one. So I

592
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: love Randy Jackson. I can tell my Randy Jackson story

593
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 1: of him just being the nicest guy. I would almost

594
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: picture like Forrest Gump whenever Forrest is getting on the

595
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: bus and everybody's like, can't sit here, sit here, So

596
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: he's taken. I was going up to be one of

597
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: the judges for the Miss America competition. I didn't know anybody,

598
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 1: and I flew in by myself.

599
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 2: I got there, I got picked up.

600
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: They're like, okay, you're gonna go get on this bus

601
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: and you're gonna go and learn how to be a judge,

602
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 1: and I'm like great, So I go and I'm walking

603
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 1: on the bus and there are all these other judges

604
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: and a lot of them are celebrities. And it's not

605
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: that they weren't nice, but they also didn't know who

606
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: I was. It's not like I'm as famous as even

607
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: they were. But the one person who was like, you

608
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: can sit here, my Jenny was Randy Jackson, and he

609
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: was so nice. He's been super nice every single time

610
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: I've been around him, and so we were gonna have

611
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: him on to talk about celebrity Name that tune, which

612
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: I did watch this past week.

613
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 2: He did oddly. I don't watch.

614
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: Anything, and I was on YouTube TV and I don't

615
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: even go to the live part of YouTube TV for

616
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: the most part unless its sports because it has my

617
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: first like four things up. It's always sports. And I

618
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: was flipping through and it was on, and so I

619
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 1: watched some of it.

620
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 2: Would you be good at it? I'd kill.

621
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: One of them was Sheryl Crowe. All I want to

622
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: do and they were like, can we do this in

623
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: four notes? And they missed it and the next person

624
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: got I was like, I got it in two because

625
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: they give you a clue as well. So I think

626
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: on the clue I would get it.

627
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: That's the game. I think that I would be the greatest.

628
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: I think i'd be better at that than Jeopardy because

629
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: Jeopardy i'd only be pretty good. With our crew, I'm good,

630
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: I think normal crew. I'm good because I like, I

631
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: don't want to say trained, but that's what I did.

632
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: My whole high school was trained for trivia. So I

633
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: was just studying any kind of question. But man, i'd

634
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: be so good and name that too, and I think, so.

635
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, the show was on, it's really good. Check it out.

636
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: But what happened was is we were going on with Randy.

637
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,959
Speaker 1: I saw him drinking lemon water. Did you see it? Yeah?

638
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 2: I think you limonwater and a thing of tea.

639
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: He was double fisting maybe, and I thought, I know

640
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: that that means either your throat hurts or you're losing

641
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: your voice. And so he comes on and you're gonna

642
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,479
Speaker 1: hear he had no voice, and about forty five seconds

643
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: into it, in my mind, I'm like, we gotta get out.

644
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to torture him with continuing to talk

645
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: to him about stuff when he can't even talk. But

646
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 1: he was gonna stay on the whole time. This is

647
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: a very short interview, but you're gonna hear him try

648
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: and then me just go like, all right, there it.

649
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 2: Is, Name that tune. Check it out.

650
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: But I do love Randy Jackson, and I'm sure we'll

651
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: get him on again at some point. But extremely accomplished career,

652
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: more so than just American Idol, although he was the

653
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: longest serving judge on the show twelve seasons because the

654
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: other two had left and he stayed on for a while.

655
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: But here he is, and you guys can follow him

656
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: at Randy Jackson on Instagram.

657
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 2: Here he is Randy Jackson. Randy, good to see you, man.

658
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 5: What's going on? Brother? How you beating? Man?

659
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 2: I'm good? Hey. Where are you right now?

660
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: Looks like you're in a fancy bathroom.

661
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 5: My kripp in la. Man, it's got this great oleigraphy

662
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 5: behind me.

663
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks cool.

664
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: So let's talk a little bit about the task at

665
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: hand first, which is I love named that tune. I

666
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: love when you guys did it non celebrity. I love

667
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: with celebrities. Do you find working with celebrities that have

668
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: like a background in an art, like they know music

669
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: a little better than you would think.

670
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 5: Well you would think they do, but some of them don't.

671
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 5: It's really weird. It's a weird thing. It's hard to predict.

672
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 5: I find that people that are most un assumed, those

673
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 5: are the ones that know.

674
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: Everything, most unassuming, like they accidentally know or they studied music.

675
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 5: Well, they accidentally know that they live. You know, you

676
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 5: can tell who loves music. You know what I mean?

677
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 5: Do you love it? I know a lot of people listen,

678
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 5: but do you love it? You love it? You'll dig deeper.

679
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 5: You read the credits, you'll understand the lyrics, you really

680
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 5: remember the titles.

681
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: With you as detailed as you've been in music at

682
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: all the different levels.

683
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 2: Do you still love new music?

684
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 5: Still? Do? Man? Fact by Jam I'm pumping right now.

685
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 5: It's called Back in the Saddle by Luke Holmbs. That's

686
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 5: a good one, great record, great great song, amazing.

687
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 2: What is it about Luke Combs that you find to

688
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 2: be interesting or that song? Even?

689
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 5: To me, he's the epitome of all in new country.

690
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 5: He's just pure raw. What you see is what you get.

691
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 5: Crazy voice, it's just the track, the music to production,

692
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 5: everything I love about it.

693
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 2: With name that tune, like how detailed?

694
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: Is it for you behind the scenes with because I

695
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: know you're the band leader, but you're also like the guy,

696
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: you're the face of the show as well, So like,

697
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 1: how much influence do you have on what's going to

698
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: happen on the show?

699
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 5: Not a lot of incidents on what's going to happen

700
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 5: because the songs are random d chosen, but the music

701
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 5: and the arrangements we dig deep, we dig really deep.

702
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: Are you able to look at sheet music and can

703
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: you picture music in your head by just seeing it

704
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: instead of sitting there and playing it? Can you can

705
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: you look at music and know what exactly what's going

706
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: to sound like?

707
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a course you taken from you a music

708
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 5: major ll sight singing, meaning that you got to hear

709
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 5: it and write it down, not from a note, just

710
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 5: some hearing it and writing it down.

711
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: Was that something that was easy for you or is

712
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: your music history like took at.

713
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 5: It took a while? Pro really did it took a while?

714
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 2: What was the first instrument you picked up?

715
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 5: And then I hopefully drums first, then guitar, then based

716
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 5: in saxophone, then back to bass.

717
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: When you said you wanted to play drums as a kid,

718
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: were your parents or whomever, like, I don't know, that's

719
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: awfully loud or were they super supportive?

720
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 5: Well, they were really supportive because my brother was older

721
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 5: than me, was a drummer.

722
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: Usually with family dynamics, another person will play another instrument.

723
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: It's interesting that you also played the drums even though

724
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 1: your brother was playing drums, but only.

725
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 5: In the beginning. Then I switched completely to guitar. Then

726
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 5: I went to based into saxophone. So it was a tradition,

727
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 5: a trajectory. I guess I was inspired by him because

728
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 5: he used to for my parents' garage. It's a little bad.

729
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 5: So I was like, whoa, this is cool. Trump's to

730
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 5: be I feel.

731
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,880

Speaker 1: elaborate than what I do just online when you just

783
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 1: write on a single tile. So here are some FAQs

784
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 1: and that's what's up. So I got on Instagram and

785
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 1: I said, hey, send a question, which is pretty normal,

786
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: and I said the seven or eight that I get

787
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: the most, I will answer here and maybe with a

788
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: little more depth because on Instagram I really only have

789
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 1: that one page that I can write. So these are

790
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 1: the questions that were asked the most. This one's from Chelse,

791
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: not Leney, and it was asked a bunch of times.

792
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: How can I come work for you and your team?

793
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,280
Speaker 1: Now I get this message a lot because I often

794
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: say that I'm always open to hire somebody, but I'm

795
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: never looking for anybody, and kind of a weird juxtaposition

796
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 1: between those two things. I don't need anybody right now

797
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 1: for my team. But if someone is like, hey, I

798
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,919
Speaker 1: have all these skills. I'm great at lighting, I'm great

799
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 1: at editing, I'm great at and I would like to

800
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 1: come and work on your team. Is there any chance

801
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: that you would look at me? I absolutely will. I

802
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 1: get a lot of resumes from people going I've never

803
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: actually done anything in your area, but would you consider

804
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: me because I'm really driven? Sadly that answer is no,

805
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,320
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of really driven people.

806
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 2: And my advice would be to find and learn.

807
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 1: And invest in a skill, Like if you wanted to

808
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 1: come and work for me, it's not even just about radio.

809
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 2: It'd be very little about radio as a matter of fact.

810
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 2: Like I don't pay the radio show.

811
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 1: That's the company, which is why I don't pay the

812
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 1: radio show bonuses because we all get paid by the company.

813
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 1: But like my personal team that I pay, and now

814
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: that team has gotten a little larger, it's people like

815
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: me Brandon read kick off Kevin in a capacity you know,

816
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: he does some hybrid work both sides. You know, I

817
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: have a full staff that works with me on projects

818
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 1: outside of the radio show.

819
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 2: And I'm always open to hire anybody.

820
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,240
Speaker 1: If you come and you say, I got this crazy

821
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: good skill, I want to join the team.

822
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 2: What do you think.

823
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: I may not hire you full time at first, but

824
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 1: I'm always looking for somebody. But I'm never looking for

825
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,439
Speaker 1: anybody that just is a go getter, because I don't

826
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: need a go getter. I got like thirty two go

827
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: getters already. So that's the answer to that, And that

828
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 1: is the question that I get the most. But my

829
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: advice would be there is to go and develop a

830
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,439
Speaker 1: skill and then present that skill to whomever. It doesn't

831
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: have to be me. I'm just using it because I

832
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 1: get this question so much. Next question from fire Nice

833
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,839
Speaker 1: twenty twelve. Realistically, how much longer do you think you'll

834
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: do the show? I think it's a great question. My

835
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:56,760
Speaker 1: easy answer is forever in some capacity now, God willing

836
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,879
Speaker 1: that I have the health to do it. I think

837
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: I will do a version of whatever I'm doing forever

838
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,919
Speaker 1: because I enjoy doing it. I also think that's where

839
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 1: my success comes from, is that I enjoy doing it

840
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 1: and I've never chased money. And I was talking with

841
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: an artist friend of mine. We were talking about money.

842
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 1: We were kind of having an existential crisis just on

843
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,439
Speaker 1: living in a creative space. And it's so much more

844
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: unpredictable now than it's ever been. There is no chance

845
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: to hit critical mass anymore, which I would say, like

846
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: five years ago, I was starting to hit that edge

847
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 1: where I was hitting critical mass, meaning.

848
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 2: I was starting to flirt with actual fame.

849
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 1: Never got famous, like, I never got to be that

850
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: successful where everybody.

851
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 2: Knew who I was.

852
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,439
Speaker 1: But it had a run of like three or four

853
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: years where I was doing American Idol or Dancing with

854
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 1: the Stars, and that was turning into my own TV

855
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: shows on that Geo or Peacock. The radio show was

856
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: still the biggest thing by far, and that was feeding

857
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 1: the success that the and I was in a lot

858
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: of places, and I got very close to reaching that

859
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: critical mass to where they could actually do research on

860
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaker 1: me with Jen Pop. It's almost impossible to get to

861
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 1: that point now because everything is so fractured. There are

862
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,879
Speaker 1: so many services. You don't have to have a TV

863
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: show to be famous. In fact, what I've done over

864
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: the past I would say two years, is heavily invested

865
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: into my own project and projects because.

866
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 2: This business is very fickle.

867
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 1: They might like you today, they may not like you tomorrow,

868
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: so they may fire you tomorrow, especially in television. I

869
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: remember once talking to Ryan Seacrest, who's probably the most

870
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: successful television person well alive right now, but maybe in

871
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 1: history at times different Like Dick Clark was on for

872
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: like fifty years there are like three channels, But Ryan's

873
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: approaching that now. And he was asking me kind of

874
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: the same question, like how long do you want to

875
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 1: do this?

876
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,760
Speaker 2: And I said, I think forever. I believe.

877
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,800
Speaker 1: We were both in Hawaii do an American ile together,

878
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:07,439
Speaker 1: and he was a man. Always do radio, he said,

879
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: because that's not fickle. He's on these television shows. New

880
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: Boss comes in, You're out. You know, these shows get

881
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 1: picked up year to year, Like rarely are there two

882
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,799
Speaker 1: and three year deals on these TV shows, Like there's

883
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: season to season. He was like, stay and focus so

884
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: much on the radio, which means audio, which means podcasting,

885
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,320
Speaker 1: which to me, that's all radio is, is like audio

886
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 1: that comes from your phone. So when I say radio,

887
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: that's what I mean. So I want to do this forever. However,

888
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: and I talked about this in one of the last

889
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,760
Speaker 1: podcasts that I did, not the last one with John Fogerty,

890
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: but the one before. I don't think I can go

891
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: at this pace forever. Also, I do too many shows

892
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 1: I just do right now. I do too many shows

893
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 1: between and I don't have to walk all the way

894
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: through them. But the Bobby Bone Show, the couple of

895
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: sports shows, this show, the Interview show. I could keep

896
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,879
Speaker 1: going going, there's no way that people want to listen

897
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: to me that much. There's no chance. I don't want

898
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,319
Speaker 1: to listen to me that much. My wife doesn't want

899
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: to listen to me that much. So I can't keep

900
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: going to this pace because one, I don't have the

901
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 1: energy sometimes, and it's not just getting on a microphone

902
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,879
Speaker 1: and talking, but it's constantly having to think of new

903
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,279
Speaker 1: things for new shows, and multiple new shows a day,

904
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 1: and yet it's not working at the mill like my

905
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 1: stepdad did. I get that, but it doesn't stop. I've

906
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 1: got to always come up with ideas and then execute

907
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 1: them and sometimes not good. And I don't really have

908
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:35,920
Speaker 1: time to focus on how to get better at something,

909
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 1: cause I got something else coming up. I can't go

910
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: at this pace forever. But while the sun's out, you know,

911
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: I get a suntan. That's what we're doing right now,

912
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: that's not really that same.

913
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 2: But forever, I hope.

914
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 1: But also I could be fired tomorrow and I would

915
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,799
Speaker 1: keep doing this. Like the great thing about now in

916
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: the media is there aren't as many gatekeepers and I

917
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 1: wouldn't make as much money, at least not at first.

918
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: But I would just flip up a camera though on

919
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: a live hit record on little screen, and then you

920
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 1: can put out a podcast and you have your audience.

921
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: You'd have to rebuild some of your audience, but I

922
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: think I'll do this in a capacity in perpetuity, hopefully forever.

923
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: But that's the answer there. I still really enjoy My

924
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,919
Speaker 1: favorite thing is they're doing the radio show. I don't

925
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 1: like the hours of it. At times, I feel like

926
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: there are too many voices, too many microphones like that

927
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: happens sometimes, but it's still my favorite thing to do.

928
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: But thank you for the question from Christianwolf dot eighty nine.

929
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 1: When you do the show from home, why is only

930
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: Amy and Eddie there? And I got a few of these,

931
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 1: and I think this is a great question. And I

932
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 1: don't think about this stuff because I know the answers.

933
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,720
Speaker 1: But I'm glad you asked this. So at my home studio,

934
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: there are only so many seats. We basically have four

935
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 1: places for a microphone. We don't even really have four

936
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 1: for a camera. We kind of have two places for

937
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: a camera and sometimes we make that third camera work.

938
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: But of the four places, there is the production like

939
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 1: stand where Mike D stands. When we're shooting from my house,

940
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 1: there really are only two seats for host and co host,

941
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,879
Speaker 1: which is Amy and myself, and then there's another spot

942
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: with a microphone that we have to turn a camera

943
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 1: on kind of sideways, but that's where Eddie runs the cameras.

944
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 1: So it's very much a broken down studio with only

945
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,320
Speaker 1: about half of us when we work from my house

946
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: because there just aren't enough seats. Also, there's not enough

947
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 1: parking in my house to have eight people. But we

948
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 1: really don't have enough microphones or places for someone to

949
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 1: sit while doing the show because we have to have

950
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 1: Amy here, we have to have Mike D here, and

951
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: we have to have cameras run and that's what Eddie's doing,

952
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,000
Speaker 1: and obviously I have to be here and why we

953
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 1: record from my house Sometimes it could be many things.

954
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: It could be I have a doctor's pointment at eleven,

955
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,800
Speaker 1: and I understand that I can work till ten forty

956
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,320
Speaker 1: eight from my house and get to the doctors pointment

957
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: on time, rather than if I have to go from work,

958
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 1: get out of the parking garage and it takes me

959
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 1: twenty five. Sometimes it's just issues with timing. Another example

960
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: would be Dave Ramsey is going to do a Bobby

961
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 1: cast with me. I don't know if it's next week

962
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,040
Speaker 1: or the week after, but when we do that, because

963
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,800
Speaker 1: of his radio show, he only was able to get

964
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,839
Speaker 1: to a studio at ten thirty. Now, if I were

965
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,720
Speaker 1: to do the show downtown, which is a big studio,

966
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 1: I would not be able to do the full show

967
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,319
Speaker 1: and then drive twenty minutes home, get set up have

968
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:34,800
Speaker 1: Dave Ramsey. But what I can do is do the

969
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: radio show untill ten fifteen. It's over. Dave Ramsey slides

970
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:40,319
Speaker 1: right in and we do an hour. So a lot

971
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 1: of that's timing stuff, and that's why a Morgan or

972
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: a Lunchbox Ray can't work here because he has to

973
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:51,320
Speaker 1: run the board. But that's why it's us. And also

974
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: sometimes with Eddie we roll into podcasts right after, and

975
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 1: it's just easier if Eddie hops into Amy's chair if

976
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:58,799
Speaker 1: we're doing one of the sports shows.

977
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 2: But I appreciate that question.

978
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:11,880
Speaker 6: Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor, Wow,

979
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 6: and we're back on the Bobby Cast.

980
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: Here's one from Kristen Corcoran. How do artists make money

981
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: from concerts? There are a couple of ways, and I'll

982
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,239
Speaker 1: use me as an example here. Way number one is

983
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 1: I would say, hey, I'm going a tour, and so

984
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 1: promoters would come to me and go, Okay, we're gonna

985
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: pay you seventy five cents if you'll come do this show.

986
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: And so they're gonna pay me seventy five cents, and

987
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna rent the whole arena, or they're gonna rent

988
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,759
Speaker 1: the theater and they'll pay a dollar. So they have

989
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: a dollar seventy five in right now, and they're gonna

990
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 1: try to make two dollars. So I'm getting my guarantee

991
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 1: of seventy five cents. They're paying their dollar to rent

992
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 1: the place, and then they're gonna try to make at

993
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: least two dollars on all in. So they're just trying

994
00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: to make more than they're spending. But that's really what

995
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: it is. It's again guarantee from a promoter. At least

996
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,800
Speaker 1: that's how I got money from my shows. Now, you

997
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: could sign an overall deal if you're a big artist,

998
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: like with a Live Nation or something, and they'd go,

999
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 1: we'll give you ten million dollars and you do fourteen

1000
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 1: shows for us. You still got to get yourself to

1001
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,319
Speaker 1: and from. You know, there's still all the costs. But

1002
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 1: you can take an overall deal for like an entire

1003
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: tour as well. But that's really the two ways that

1004
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 1: I'm familiar with that artists that are mid or big

1005
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: you get a guarantee and so that's the money you're

1006
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 1: getting from the promoter, and then the promoter's.

1007
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 2: Trying to make money from ticket sales.

1008
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 1: Now, there is a point too in my ticket sales

1009
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 1: where if I had like over eighty five percent, I

1010
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 1: would then get a percentage of anything over eighty five percent.

1011
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,879
Speaker 1: So I hope I explained that good. But that's kind

1012
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 1: of how you get paid now. There are also when

1013
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 1: you're starting out, you can just get the door. It's

1014
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 1: like I will play here and I'll take the door,

1015
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 1: and you get the alcohol. There are a lot of

1016
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: little scenarios like that, or a bar can just pay

1017
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 1: you like two hundred bucks and then you make tips,

1018
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 1: or you just make tips. They're all those ways. I

1019
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: feel like that's pretty good. Here's one from Leah Rose.

1020
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: When did you realize you kept calling Dusty by the

1021
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 1: name Bradley on the last podcast. Yeah, I'll explain this

1022
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 1: because I did it one other time too, Bradley with

1023
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,240
Speaker 1: my dog before Dusty. We had been talking about Bradley

1024
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 1: on the show because that was the dog that my

1025
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,160
Speaker 1: stepdad said they had to give away to his buddy.

1026
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:16,360
Speaker 2: At the farm.

1027
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 1: Turns out that wasn't true, and I just had Bradley

1028
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 1: on my mind whenever I was talking about Dusty. But

1029
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,399
Speaker 1: I appreciate all the messages. I got ten million of them.

1030
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,320
Speaker 1: What kind of music do you listen to the most?

1031
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 1: I think we all have our familiar music from when

1032
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 1: we were like fifteen to twenty two that if we're

1033
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 1: not listening to new music, we just kind of go

1034
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 1: to it. And for me, it's mostly John Mayer Counting Crows.

1035
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: I have a whole list of early Casey Musgraves type stuff.

1036
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 2: But that's kind of it.

1037
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 1: You know, there's moods that I get into that's like

1038
00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 1: classic rock, moods, and so I've got a playlist for that,

1039
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:04,360
Speaker 1: and I could kind of just show you some of

1040
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:05,280
Speaker 1: these playlists.

1041
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 2: That I have.

1042
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: But I've got like a nineties pop rock playlist that

1043
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,960
Speaker 1: I listen to a lot, and one that I've even

1044
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: put together myself. I've got a seventies and eighties acoustic

1045
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: list that I've put together for me, Like when I'm working,

1046
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:24,080
Speaker 1: it's Tom Petty free Fallin' Fleetwood, Mac Landslide Eagles like

1047
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: four songs, Phil Collins in the air tonight. I'm not

1048
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,240
Speaker 1: a big Bruce Springsteen fan.

1049
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 2: But I do have.

1050
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: I'm on fire Jam, so kind of that if I'm

1051
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 1: just sitting in my computer working, it's kind of that.

1052
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:45,800
Speaker 1: It's like a sixties, seventies, a little bit of eighties acoustic.

1053
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,720
Speaker 1: But if it's artists based, it's John Mayer Counting Crows

1054
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:51,760
Speaker 1: or Casey Musgraves.

1055
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 2: How do you arrive at show content? Each day?

1056
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:02,719
Speaker 1: I keep a note app in my phone and I know,

1057
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 1: you guys that are listening, you won't be able to

1058
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: see this, but.

1059
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,799
Speaker 2: So on my phone, I have all of these.

1060
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: And so I have one tab that says lots to say,

1061
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,640
Speaker 1: and I keep notes. Now we just finished recording lots

1062
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 1: to say, so I've exhausted a lot of the notes,

1063
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 1: but lots to say. Is my NFL show I do

1064
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 1: with former NFL quarterback Matt Castle, and I have notes

1065
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 1: should a Sanders not wanting to be a raven?

1066
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 2: What's it like? First week as a backup? Now starter?

1067
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,880
Speaker 1: Because that happened with the Bengals, and also that happened

1068
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 1: with Matt Castle because he's the guy that went in

1069
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 1: after Tom Brady got hurt. I have the Kansaity Chief schedule,

1070
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,879
Speaker 1: so this is for one show, and I constantly keep

1071
00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:48,799
Speaker 1: notes inside each of these areas. So another one would

1072
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 1: be the Bobby Cast, which is what I'm doing now.

1073
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 2: I have so many notes on this.

1074
00:50:56,560 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 1: I have one note about a radio and I'm not

1075
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,160
Speaker 1: sure what city it was in because stations will do

1076
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:08,719
Speaker 1: liners sometimes and they'll like sometimes there's like BOBFMS, like BOBFM,

1077
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: we love to eat wheaties and they just say weird

1078
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,400
Speaker 1: stuff and that's all fun. But there was one country

1079
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,280
Speaker 1: station that was like, at least our morning guy doesn't

1080
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 1: wear a cardigan every day, and I was like, obviously,

1081
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,919
Speaker 1: that's it me. I just didn't understand it, like what's

1082
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: wrong with a cardigan? And secondly, this is my longest

1083
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:34,239
Speaker 1: bit ever. Every day for a year at work, I've

1084
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:37,319
Speaker 1: wore a cardigan. I don't think I've ever worn a

1085
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 1: car again in my life until I just decided one

1086
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 1: day I was gonna wear a cardigan every day for

1087
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 1: a year. It's my longest bit. It's not even that funny.

1088
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 1: I just love doing it now. Also, it's so much

1089
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: easier because I don't have to worry about what I'm

1090
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,919
Speaker 1: gonna wear. I have like twenty cardigans, some of them nice,

1091
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: send them not so nice.

1092
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 2: And because we record sometimes.

1093
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: I wear the same cardigan like three days in a row,

1094
00:51:58,719 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 1: so you don't know which day I recorded.

1095
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:02,239
Speaker 2: But I didn't really understand the.

1096
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 1: Station making the joke about our guy doesn't wear cardigans.

1097
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 2: Like, in no way am I insulted by that.

1098
00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 1: So you just made me feel like you're talking about me,

1099
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 1: which makes me feel good because that means I'm on

1100
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:18,080
Speaker 1: your mind. Like if you were to make fun of

1101
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,839
Speaker 1: my looks or something, at least I would respect that

1102
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,439
Speaker 1: and go, Okay, they're taking a shot at me. They're

1103
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: making fun of me. Yeah, that's a weird one though.

1104
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 1: Also in the bobbycast notes, I've got song lyrics that

1105
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: I thought were interesting.

1106
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:31,880
Speaker 2: I've got a list of the best lead singers.

1107
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,520
Speaker 1: I have all these little stories because I like historical

1108
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:43,440
Speaker 1: facts and I like to write on how they affect

1109
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,920
Speaker 1: me based on decisions I've made in my life. And

1110
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:51,319
Speaker 1: I'll give you one here. This is, Oh, you're gonna

1111
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: think this is so boring. Maybe the story of Ulysses S.

1112
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:59,240
Speaker 1: Grant and the power of no reaction. And what's funny

1113
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 1: is this is kind of what I was talking about

1114
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: just a minute ago.

1115
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,319
Speaker 2: And I didn't pull it up for this reason. But

1116
00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 2: when Ulysses S.

1117
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:13,840
Speaker 1: Grant was a president, he was not the most polished guy.

1118
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:15,280
Speaker 2: He was not a great speaker.

1119
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 1: He didn't love politics, and a lot of people criticized

1120
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 1: him for that, and sometimes to his face. One story

1121
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 1: goes that a man insulted him in public in front

1122
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,160
Speaker 1: of a lot of people, and he did it to

1123
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: provoke him, wanting to get a response, to show that

1124
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:37,439
Speaker 1: he was weak. I think most people, most politicians, would

1125
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: have snapped back, they would have argued, they would have

1126
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 1: defended themselves for sure.

1127
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,319
Speaker 2: But Grant he didn't do that.

1128
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 1: He sat back. He always smoked a cigar. So he

1129
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:53,360
Speaker 1: continued to smoke a cigar and the guy just kept ranting.

1130
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 1: And so when the guy finally stopped, because you can

1131
00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:00,240
Speaker 1: only talk for so long, Grant looked at him and said,

1132
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: you know what, I agree with you, and then Grant

1133
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 1: walked away. It drove the guy bananas. And when I

1134
00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 1: read this story, I was like, dang, that's awesome. But one,

1135
00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:17,879
Speaker 1: it's so hard to do. Two, Grant had every right

1136
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,440
Speaker 1: to clap back. He had power. He was smarter than

1137
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,840
Speaker 1: this dude. He could have had somebody else do the

1138
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 1: clapping for him, but he didn't. He was freaking president,

1139
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 1: the power that you have as president. So he had

1140
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 1: the power of the platform. He had the authority, but

1141
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 1: he chose silence, not to get defensive, not to fight.

1142
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:46,959
Speaker 1: And the thing is people noticed. They noticed he wasn't reactionary.

1143
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,200
Speaker 1: They remembered that he was calm even though someone was

1144
00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: trying to trigger him.

1145
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 2: And so.

1146
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,839
Speaker 1: Just me talking about that Cardigan thing, because I didn't

1147
00:54:57,840 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 1: really plan to talk about it in this.

1148
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,279
Speaker 2: Order, that makes me think about that.

1149
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 1: And we also live in a world where everybody wants

1150
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,439
Speaker 1: a last word or the last word, or they want

1151
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 1: the mic drop, or they want the viral comeback, but

1152
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 1: I think a lot of times the strongest move is

1153
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 1: no move at all, because you're giving someone the satisfaction

1154
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 1: of knowing they get to you. And I think the

1155
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 1: takeaway with this story for me is that you don't

1156
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 1: have to fight every battle. Sometimes the most powerful response

1157
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:36,320
Speaker 1: to negativity really is no response at all. I'm not

1158
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:41,560
Speaker 1: a cigar smoker, but metaphorically speaking, just keep smoking your cigar,

1159
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 1: keep moving forward, and don't worry about other people making

1160
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: fun of your cardigans. That's what I think. Had a

1161
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:53,239
Speaker 1: friend called me yesterday in the artist world and he's like, Hey,

1162
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 1: this other artist is provoking me. And you know me,

1163
00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 1: I love theatrical conflict. We did a whole episode on

1164
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 1: What's Happening right Now with Zach Bryan and Gavin.

1165
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 2: Adcock and that's funny to me.

1166
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 1: Because it ain't real. It's real to them right the second,

1167
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 1: but it's not real life real. And I've predicted that

1168
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,320
Speaker 1: in like three years are going to do a song together,

1169
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 1: maybe before that, And he said, I got a text

1170
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 1: from this person who's also an artist and they're talking garbage,

1171
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 1: like what do I do?

1172
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:27,240
Speaker 2: And I said, well, do you want to do? Something.

1173
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 2: They were like, not really, are you offended?

1174
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,760
Speaker 1: Not really? Will it bother you if you don't say something?

1175
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 1: They said, not really, I said, then say nothing, because

1176
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:39,279
Speaker 1: it's going to drive them the craziest if you do

1177
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 1: nothing to them provoking you. And so he didn't, and

1178
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 1: he's so much going to win this little battle of

1179
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 1: it's not even really a battle, it's a one side

1180
00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 1: of battle. But I've been in a lot of these

1181
00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 1: little little skirmishes, so I do feel like I have

1182
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,960
Speaker 1: a good advice when it comes to that. But sometimes

1183
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 1: the best thing to do is nothing at all. I'll

1184
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:11,360
Speaker 1: give you one more. And this is the answer to

1185
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 1: your question. How do I do my content? I keep

1186
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: it all in tabs, and I'm constantly feeling. And if

1187
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: I got an idea, I go, what tab do I

1188
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 1: put it in?

1189
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 2: This is called let's call it, seven near deaths and

1190
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,120
Speaker 2: a lottery ticket. So there was this.

1191
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:29,440
Speaker 1: Guy from Croatia named Frayne. Some people say he's the

1192
00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,560
Speaker 1: unluckiest man ever. Some people say he's the luckiest man ever.

1193
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:37,919
Speaker 1: And it all depends that your perspective towards Frayne. So

1194
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:42,120
Speaker 1: the story goes, he survived a lot of disasters. Now

1195
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 1: listen to this. His train deralled into a river. That's

1196
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 1: not his fault. He's not driving the train, but he's

1197
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,920
Speaker 1: on a train. It goes into the river. He lives.

1198
00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: Some other people don't.

1199
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:52,920
Speaker 2: But he lived.

1200
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,560
Speaker 1: A plane he was on ran off the tarmac and

1201
00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 1: it was basically a plane crash.

1202
00:57:59,080 --> 00:57:59,919
Speaker 2: Now it wasn't one.

1203
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,400
Speaker 1: It was in the air that crashed, but people got hurt.

1204
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 1: He was in a plane crash, a plane incident, he lived.

1205
00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 1: He was in a bus crash, a bus fell off

1206
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 1: the side of a cliff.

1207
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 2: He lived. He was in a car accident, he got

1208
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 2: hit by a truck.

1209
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 1: He was in another accident where he skided off a

1210
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: mountain road, but somehow landed in a tree and walked away.

1211
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:24,959
Speaker 1: All in all, this guy Frayan had seven near death

1212
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:31,480
Speaker 1: experiences in total, So extremely unlucky guy had some injuries

1213
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,480
Speaker 1: for sure, but didn't die. And then after all that,

1214
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 1: he won the lottery. He won millions of dollars in

1215
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: the lottery. So this frame dude has been in all

1216
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:43,520
Speaker 1: these accidents, has almost died all these times, very unlucky

1217
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 1: wins the lottery. Now you hear that story and it

1218
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 1: makes you wonder, was he cursed. Was he blessed? I

1219
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 1: mean both sides are true. Yeah, he was cursed. All

1220
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 1: these things happened to him. Most were out of his control,

1221
00:58:57,560 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: all the crashes, all the near deaths, But he did

1222
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 1: hit the lottery and that is unbelievable luck. And I

1223
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 1: think that's a lot like life. I mean, most of

1224
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 1: us don't go through sven year death experiences. I think

1225
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:10,920
Speaker 1: I've had three, and I think that's more than the

1226
00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:14,479
Speaker 1: normal person. But we do all deal with things that

1227
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: feel like set back stacked on setbacks, and it's just like,

1228
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm ever going to be able

1229
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 1: to dig out of this where it does feel a

1230
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 1: bit like the world's against you. But old frame, what

1231
00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 1: his story kind of shows is that the hard stuff

1232
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:33,000
Speaker 1: might be what puts you in the position for something

1233
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,000
Speaker 1: amazing down the road. Like had he not had all

1234
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: those incidents that maybe it wouldn't have put him in

1235
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 1: a place to where he even went to the store

1236
00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 1: that day to where he maybe needed something for the

1237
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 1: store because his neck hurt, so he went to the

1238
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 1: store and bought a lottery ticket while he was at

1239
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: the store. So the lesson is this, if you see

1240
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:54,479
Speaker 1: yourself as lucky or unlucky. That's true because it's usually

1241
00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,600
Speaker 1: about the perspective that you choose. I mean, some people

1242
00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 1: only see the crashes and they go, oh my god,

1243
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 1: I can't believe that dude on want died seven times.

1244
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Some people only see that he won the lottery and

1245
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:06,840
Speaker 1: they're like, oh my god, what a lucky guy for

1246
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: to live through all those and then win the lottery.

1247
01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:10,760
Speaker 2: And both are absolutely true.

1248
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 1: And the real luck, because I'm not a big luck guy,

1249
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 1: is just making it through long enough to see what's

1250
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:21,400
Speaker 1: waiting on the other side. And even Frayin probably still waiting.

1251
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 1: But if you see that as very lucky, yep, you're right.

1252
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:29,600
Speaker 1: If you see that as very unlucky, yep, you're right

1253
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: there too. So to answer your question, and I'm just

1254
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: pulling from this, I've also got like a music list,

1255
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 1: so I keep all of everything into my phone organized

1256
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 1: on the notes app. It's not even like a crazy

1257
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,160
Speaker 1: colap or anything. Let me see, there's one other question here,

1258
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 1: your easiest friendship to maintain. This is interesting because I

1259
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 1: was just talking on the radio show about what I

1260
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 1: call sleeper cell friendships, and I don't think it's the

1261
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 1: same thing. I think all friendships take different levels of maintenance.

1262
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,360
Speaker 1: If it's somebody you talk with a lot, if it's

1263
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:08,440
Speaker 1: somebody that you know is like your hardcore friend but

1264
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:10,360
Speaker 1: you don't get to see them because of proximity. But

1265
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:15,320
Speaker 1: a sleeper cell, in like terrorist organizations, are groups of

1266
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:19,560
Speaker 1: people for a cause that aren't working for the cause

1267
01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:21,480
Speaker 1: unless they're called to do so. So like there was

1268
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:23,600
Speaker 1: a television show called The Americans and they were Russian

1269
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 1: spies and they came over. They were just living a

1270
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,640
Speaker 1: normal American life, but if they were reached out to,

1271
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: they had to like basically wake up and for Russia.

1272
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 1: And that can mean a lot of really bad things.

1273
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:36,919
Speaker 1: That can mean despying, that can mean killing, but you're

1274
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:38,640
Speaker 1: just doing your own thing until they wake you up

1275
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 1: to be the terrorist organization.

1276
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 2: Again.

1277
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:43,800
Speaker 1: Now it doesn't have to be that in this instance,

1278
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,520
Speaker 1: but I have sleepers sell friendships where I have friends

1279
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:49,840
Speaker 1: that I know that I haven't talked to in a year,

1280
01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,600
Speaker 1: in maybe even two years at this point, but I

1281
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 1: know if I called right now, I'd be like, hey,

1282
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,280
Speaker 1: I need you. It's like the sleeper cell waking up

1283
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,920
Speaker 1: and they're like, yep, I'm here. Whatever you need, I

1284
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 1: will walk through a wall because I think I'm not

1285
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 1: to friends too. I think they are friends of mine

1286
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 1: that I haven't talked to in a couple or few years.

1287
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 1: They live in different part of the country, but that

1288
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 1: doesn't mean we're less friends. We may not get to

1289
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: spend as much time together, we may not communicate as much,

1290
01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:19,320
Speaker 1: but there's always that thread of whatever you need whenever

1291
01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 1: you need it. All you gotta do is wake the

1292
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 1: sleep or sell up, and I am there. So all

1293
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 1: friendships deserve maintenance. I really do enjoy the sleeper self friends,

1294
01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:34,720
Speaker 1: though I got a couple of those.

1295
01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 2: That's it for this episode.

1296
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:40,840

1297
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:43,040

1298
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,760
