Speaker 2: next year.

19
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 4: I know, too far, but that's how long it takes

20
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 4: to print vinyls.

21
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,560

00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: it's done now.

24
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 2: But yeah, so if you're doing just digital, you could

25
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: have it out tomorrow morning. Yeah huh.

26
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,119
Speaker 3: But I'll just sit on these bangers for Now.

27
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 2: That's a question. I mean, we all have our specific

28
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: reasons why we appreciate vinyl, but why is making sure

29
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 2: a vinyl a priority a big thing for you nowadays?

30
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 4: Sally Manager, The kids like to buy them and make

31
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 4: it art in their rooms, okay, and I like to

32
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 4: sign a bunch of them.

33
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: So okay, will you ever go.

34
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: And sign some and like hide them in the stores

35
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 3: so people find them signed already?

36
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 4: Now I am, yeah, okay, the plastic open a little bit,

37
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: but they won't mind.

38
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 2: No if you sign it.

39
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 3: I did like that, right, Yeah.

40
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: So the album Toy with Me out April twenty fourth.

41
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: We've already been playing Still Don't Care, which we'll play again.

42
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,279
Speaker 2: So this, this album took a while to put together

43
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: for you.

44
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it took longer than I usually I do, Like

45
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 4: they usually take three months, and this one took longer

46
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 4: because I was also doing a bunch of other stuff

47
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 4: at the same time. But I've never worked so hard

48
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 4: on songs. Usually I write a song in a day

49
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 4: and it's done. I wrote these songs in a few

50
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 4: couple of days, but the production and finalizing each song

51
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 4: took months and a lot of different producers because I

52
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 4: would just be like, it's not perfect yet, I need

53
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 4: to move it on to someone else, which was difficult.

54
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 4: But now these songs are at a higher level than

55
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 4: I think I've ever done before, and I'm very proud

56
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 4: of them, and so I'm trying to spread the word

57
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 4: as far as i can the people to listen to it.

58
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: Well, I want to talk about that. I want to

59
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: talk about you outspreading the word and we appreciate you

60
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: spreading it for us. You know what I mean, you

61
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: know what I hear. But the song, let's let's talk

62
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 2: about uh still don't care? Yes, you you would work

63
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 2: for the producer and say it's time to move on

64
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: to someone else, whatever, all with the goal of making

65
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: a hit. What does it take? In your Megan Trainer opinion,

66
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,399
Speaker 2: what does it take to make a hit?

67
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 3: But I don't know, everyone, I don't know.

68
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 4: I don't know what makes a hit because I had

69
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 4: all about that base for like nine months, and I

70
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 4: was everyone's like, just wait for your one song, and

71
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't have it, I guess, and

72
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 4: then that song came out of nowhere, thought everyone. But

73
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 4: I had that song for like a whole pregnancy, so

74
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 4: a whole nine months. I wasn't pregnant, but like at

75
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 4: the time, so you never know.

76
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 2: So let's is that it if someone comes up with

77
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 2: their answer to make a hit, is this, this, and this,

78
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,679
Speaker 2: it's all bs. It's just I think.

79
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 3: So I'm like I thought, I knew.

80
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 4: I thought for a while, I was like, I have

81
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 4: a bunch of hits, Like I totally got this formula,

82
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 4: but I know how to make like a pop like

83
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 4: I studied Max Martin, So I I feel like I

84
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 4: tried to make those pop hits, but I couldn't tell

85
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 4: you how to make like the weekend hit, you know,

86
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 4: like one of those songs.

87
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 3: I don't know how to make all genre hits.

88
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 4: I don't know how to make like an awesome Tate

89
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 4: McCrae cool tit for Tat hit, you know what I mean?

90
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: Like I don't know how to write that, but I

91
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 4: know how to write a Megan Trainer self love anthem.

92
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 4: Like you know, Okay, I have one more question to

93
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 4: go be kind a strong radio makes it a hit.

94
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 2: This is where I'm going. I'm gonna talk about. This's

95
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: so funny. We're on the same wavelength, We're on the

96
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: same beam. Gotcha you Since the very beginning of your

97
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 2: career that we knew of. You came to see us.

98
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 2: You loved coming out and doing radio interviews, and you

99
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 2: still do. It's so important. You know, a lot of

100
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: a lot of artists would rather just not leave the

101
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 2: house and if they can throw something on a video

102
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 2: from their bedroom and here it is, that's that's as

103
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: far as they go.

104
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 4: I flew out to see you, my love, the importance

105
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 4: that I'm only going with Elvis.

106
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: Yes, And I'm sure the airlines are so appreciative of

107
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 2: that because you brought forty five people with you.

108
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 3: I did.

109
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,119
Speaker 2: Who are these people?

110
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 4: My managers that are on the computer, and my stylists,

111
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 4: my husband on my radio team, and there's more out there.

112
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 4: I know.

113
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,679
Speaker 2: I love that. But you still do it the way

114
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 2: it's been done for a while. And why why is that?

115
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: Why is it important to get out and put the

116
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: work in like this.

117
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 3: I don't know.

118
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 4: It's harder than ever now, I guess, to like really

119
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 4: get the word out. I still see like big artists

120
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 4: like release like for the Grammy nominations. Recently, I saw

121
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 4: someone get nominated for their album that I never even

122
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 4: heard of, and it made me sad. I was like,

123
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 4: oh my god, how did I not know this even existed?

124
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 4: Because the Internet is so big now and everything is

125
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 4: so spread out and there's too much going on that

126
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 4: I've been so nervous about this record that I've never

127
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 4: worked harder on and I'm so busy with my two

128
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 4: kids and i just want to show them and make

129
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 4: them proud, show them what Ama could do. So I'm like,

130
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 4: I need to say us to everything and just get

131
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 4: out there as much as possible to to have everyone know, like, hi,

132
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 4: I'm Megan Trainer and I have songs coming out. Check

Speaker 3: Yeah.

135
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 4: But like even when I put this album out, my

136
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: manager said it best. He was like, just keep posting,

137
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 4: just keep getting out there, just do the best you can,

138
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 4: because to this day people are still like.

139
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 3: You're married to spy kids, Like they still don't know.

140
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 4: And I'm like ten years deep with my kids, you

141
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 4: know what I mean, children down with by kids, but

142
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 4: they're still like what, like they're just finding it out.

Speaker 3: But does it really make you closer? Yeah? Really too much?

160
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 2: Maybe too close?

161
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 3: It's too close. It's too close.

162
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 5: Are the kids at the age where they have figured out,

163
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 5: look what mommy can do, like actually watching and acknowledging it.

164
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 4: I cannot tell because sometimes sometimes I think they know,

165
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 4: Like when I play like we're mixing the album, so

166
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 4: we play it a lot in in the living room

167
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 4: and kitchen area where the kids are, and when I

168
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 4: start to play it, my two year old runs in.

169
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 3: And goes it's time to dance, and so I know

170
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 3: he's a fan.

171
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 4: But then he looked at me the other day and

172
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 4: was like, can you play Megan to And I was like,

173
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 4: are you asking? Are you asked me because you think

174
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 4: I'm Mega Trainer? Or do you ask me because you

175
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 4: love Mega Trainer? Do you love Megan Trainer? And he's

176
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 4: like yeah, and I was like, yeah, she's pretty awesome.

177
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 4: And then I think, because I get so glammed up,

178
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 4: like for my music video, still don't care. I'm like

179
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 4: a princess pop star and I'm flying in the sky.

180
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 4: So I play for my kids to hopefully think they

181
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 4: think I'm cool. And I watched it next to him,

182
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 4: but I was all grungy, like at home and my

183
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 4: scrubs and I was like, that's mama, how cool?

184
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 3: And he was like, can we watch TV? Do you

185
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 3: not know that's me? Because I love like this.

186
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: Wait till they get old enough and they're like, mom,

187
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,920

00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 3: That's all right, I'm gonna love him just as much.

204
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: But I thought the first two were.

205
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 4: Girls, and I was tricked. I love them so much,

206
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 4: they're so boring. Every time I was pregnant with them,

207
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 4: I was like, this is twin girls.

208
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 3: I can feel it. And I was really wrong.

209
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 5: So now you've you've got a lot going on and

210
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 5: you're kind of in a different place with kids, and

211
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 5: what is happening with your career. Is there's something on

212
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 5: this album that we are going to hear that's going

213
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 5: to sound different than the things that we've heard before.

214
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 3: And do you have a favorite song from the album.

215
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: Oh, that's so tough.

216
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 3: This album I really studied.

217
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 4: I was doing a lot of private gigs this year,

218
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 4: and I noticed that in my sets. I had a

219
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 4: lot of hits, but they all sounded all over the place,

220
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 4: like I had a lot of doop hits. And then

221
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 4: I would sing not so that, ah so, no no,

222
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 4: and then me too songs like that, and I was like,

223
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 4: I wish they had friends. I wish me too, and

224
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 4: no had friends anymore, just so by themselves because the

225
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 4: rest is like all do op. So on this album,

226
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 4: I wrote what I call like older, cooler sisters for

227
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 4: those songs, So if you like those songs, there's more

228
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 4: of that on this album.

229
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 3: A lot of my songs are like extra musical.

230
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 4: And then I watched a family member go through an

231
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 4: intense breakup, and so I wrote a lot of angry

232
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 4: songs of like get in girl, I'm gonna take your shopping,

233
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:28,679
Speaker 4: I'm gonna take care of you.

234
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 3: This man means nothing, who cares? So we did.

235
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 4: I did a lot of fassy songs on it. And

236
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 4: then I have my one ballad called Little One that's

237
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 4: for my kids, that's like, please stay this little forever. Okay,

238
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,800

239
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 4: yet you know, And at the end they go, I

Speaker 4: No?

253
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 3: I still think my team paid people to show up

254
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 3: to the last time. I'm still not convinced. I couldn't

255
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 3: believe it.

256
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 4: When I went in there, I was like, no way,

257
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,400

Speaker 2: But so the fun keeps coming, the funk keeps coming.

264
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 2: And I also noticed that some of the proceeds are

265
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: going to Trevor Project, which Trevor Project is a major

266
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,679

Speaker 4: Can't believe I a bangs. I did this in sixth

279
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,000

00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 3: Dating crazy everyone does that.

287
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: Anyone thinking eleven year old would even think about.

288
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I didn't have all these dreams because I

289
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 4: didn't like believe in myself like that. When I was younger,

290
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 4: I always wanted to I was like, we're going to

291
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 4: need a tour bus because we're going to tour and

292
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 4: he was just laughing, like okay, But I didn't even

293
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 4: like think of these dreams because they weren't even like

294
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 4: attainable in my brain. I was like, there's no way

295
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 4: I'll get that. So when I started, when I got

296
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 4: all about the basic gun number one, I was like,

297
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 4: what else can I achieve? And then when I met

298
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 4: the love of my life and got married at yeah.

299
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 3: I was like, wow, we need kids.

300
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 4: And then when I did that and survived two sea sections,

301
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 4: I was like, there's nothing I can't do. And now

302
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to show my kids that, like, you

303
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 4: work really hard and you can have all your dreams

304
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 4: come true.

305
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 5: And now you said you're in a new era where

306
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 5: dudes are suddenly loving you because you're a part of

307
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 5: these two just love me, my dude, yep, because my

Speaker 2: I'm say I'm gonna say what Megan Trader said when

312
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 2: she walked in this room, I had no idea who

313
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes was.

314
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:35,880

00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 2: being in a career as you have done and accomplished,

341
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,120
