0:00:24.200 --> 0:00:26.600
<v Speaker 1>So we just got back from our big Florida trip.

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Well how was it? Uh? First of all, where'd you go? So? Okay,

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:33.320
<v Speaker 1>So we went to Pensacola, says My family loves to

0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:35.800
<v Speaker 1>go to the beach and it's driving distance to Pensacola

0:00:35.800 --> 0:00:38.520
<v Speaker 1>and navar Like. By the way, if you've never been

0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:43.800
<v Speaker 1>to the Panhandle of Florida, I haven't. It is the

0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 1>most gorgeous beaches, the whitest sand, like just the beaches

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:50.520
<v Speaker 1>are beautiful.

0:00:51.320 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 2>It's like flower But I have always heard that in Florida.

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Florida is the only state where you go north to

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 2>go to the south.

0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 3>So there is actual city's living there, but the beaches

0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:02.960
<v Speaker 3>in the north the nicest speech.

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:05.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're in the redneck revie is what we

0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:09.440
<v Speaker 1>call it. Okay, but the most gorgeous beaches ever. I

0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:11.440
<v Speaker 1>used to live in Perdido, like I mean, then we

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>I grew up going there. That's what the family vacations

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:15.960
<v Speaker 1>were because we couldn't, you know, afford to fly anywhere,

0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:19.320
<v Speaker 1>so you had to drive. And the coolest place to drive,

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, just a few hours away, was the best

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 1>beaches in the country. So you did Pensacola the whole family.

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, but my mom to live there. Yeah, my

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 1>mom and dad lived there when they first got married.

0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 1>She used to teach in Pensacole. Oh, I didn't know

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that when they were just little children. Children's well, I

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 1>hope they weren't children. Well, well, I mean she was

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:38.520
<v Speaker 1>like twenty, so that's that she.

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 4>Was a child.

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:41.800
<v Speaker 1>She was younger than all of us this time speak

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:45.280
<v Speaker 1>for yourself. But so you know, we try to get

0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:47.560
<v Speaker 1>there every summer, a lot of summers. You know what

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 1>they always say, if you want to book a job,

0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 1>plan vacation, and that usually happens around this trip where

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 1>we're a week away from going to stay with my family,

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.040

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Yes, it's a slurpy cavicha no, but but Miami and

0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 2>in Florida always had the best cavichah.

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Which is where we went after Pensacola. So we went

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.799
<v Speaker 1>to Miami to see his family. Quick little flight from

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:33.959
<v Speaker 1>Pensacola down to Miami, and it was great because we

0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the cousins for the first time. So such a blast

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 1>this year. Instead of staying with the family, because you know,

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.560
<v Speaker 1>now that the kids are getting older, I feel like

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 1>we're in the way. It was like that there's four

0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>of us, you know, that's that's a lot of people.

0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>So we decided to, you know, get out of the

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>hair a little bit, although we did stay with your

0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>sister a lot most like most of the time. Basically

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 1>we had this to put our stuff in. Where'd you

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:13.240
<v Speaker 1>guys stay the WHI I know that w which is great, Yeah,

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.960
<v Speaker 1>really great. I mean right there on the ocean. I

0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.880
<v Speaker 1>love Yeah, And their faces have like a little home

0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:21.640
<v Speaker 1>base for yourself. You could put all to get away

0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:25.160
<v Speaker 1>and we went out a couple of nights. That was

0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:27.840
<v Speaker 1>the best thing. So, you know, the kids pretty much

0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 1>stayed with Aunt La La.

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:33.240
<v Speaker 3>At my sister's and my my sister's husband. Scott is

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.200
<v Speaker 3>currently out of town for a month, and so are

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:37.040
<v Speaker 3>his two children.

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>My sisters tell them what Scott does. This is such

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:40.799
<v Speaker 1>a great Scott.

0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.599
<v Speaker 3>He's a saint. He uh yeah, we didn't talk about

0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:46.800
<v Speaker 3>more about this. He has it's called Frontier Travel and

0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 3>he plans these big trips all across the world, like

0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:54.040
<v Speaker 3>a trip with a group of really needs adults who

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 3>are mentally so adult autism are just different mental disorders somehow.

0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:03.240
<v Speaker 3>So it gives them a chance to see the world,

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.120
<v Speaker 3>throw away from their parents because a lot of them

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 3>live with their parents. And so he and his uh

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.279
<v Speaker 3>groups groups. So I mean they've been on cruises, they've

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.480

0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean all over the world they have the best

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 1>time is a nonprofit, No, it's a business. Is business

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.720
<v Speaker 1>and so and so it's like a tour group.

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:27.320
<v Speaker 3>How you like, you know, go to a tour group

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:29.360
<v Speaker 3>in Japan with a bunch of people. It's a tour group,

0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 3>but they're all adults with certain special needs and uh yeah,

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:36.240
<v Speaker 3>and they have the most amazing time episodes.

0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.720
<v Speaker 1>So he's gone, he was away away for a month

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>doing that. Yeah, so they have to stay with her

0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:42.840
<v Speaker 1>all the time. And then you know, we'd have a

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:44.680
<v Speaker 1>couple of nights out with our friends, and then we

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:48.159
<v Speaker 1>had a hotel just to crash at and don't not

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:49.880
<v Speaker 1>have to wake up at six in the morning with

0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>the kids. It was amazing. It was a true vacation.

0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 1>That's true. They I love to hear that. I'll know

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.120
<v Speaker 1>anyone listening if you've dealt with this. But you know,

0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>we you know, we potty train in them at the

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:04.840
<v Speaker 1>same time. And on their second birthday last October, they

0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 1>were pretty potty trained. They had they knew exactly. I'm like,

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:09.840
<v Speaker 1>this is great, how do we get them potty trained

0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:13.239
<v Speaker 1>in four days? Well that's not the case. My girl,

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:17.720
<v Speaker 1>great Violet incredible. She potty trained. You know, she'll have

0:06:17.720 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 1>an accident every once in a while, but she is.

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:21.840

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:26.960
<v Speaker 3>put her on the top.

0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:29.680
<v Speaker 1>It is just a dainty little thing. I was like,

0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't even do that as an adult. I'm like, cold,

0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:37.480

0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 2>and jacuzzie, there's chlorine.

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:54.039

<v Speaker 3>clean and you have no clean water, you be on it.

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 5>Hello, it's it's it's I don't live fifteenth century. Okay,

0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 5>well some of us do. But wait a minute. So

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.120
<v Speaker 5>you were talking about the kids. Then we took a

0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:08.799
<v Speaker 5>left turn, so wait a minute. So great.

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:13.320
<v Speaker 1>He kind of reverted a few months ago for most,

0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean until the end of last year. Great. Then

0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:17.200
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden he's like, yeah, I'm just gonna

0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 1>poop my pants. Now, yeah, he's all about it, but

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 1>it almost like purposely knows. He looks at you and

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>you're like, are you pooping? No, And you know he's

0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:26.520
<v Speaker 1>say to them every day, so what do you do

0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:28.320
<v Speaker 1>if you have to poop? Where do you go go

0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:29.400
<v Speaker 1>to the party?

0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Two seconds later, it's just there, pooh. It is it

0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:38.600
<v Speaker 2>is he just one the He just doesn't care.

0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:39.880
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of boys revert.

0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's very common when you they revert back, like,

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 3>it's very common. That's kind of body draining. Very common,

0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:48.040
<v Speaker 3>except for a daughter because he's apparently.

0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Perfect, she's perfection. But yeah, I mean so airplane rides,

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, sometimes you get to the next place and

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.720
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden they've pooped and all up their back.

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand how it creeps up to their mid back.

0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, but it just does. You know, it's it's

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:07.680
<v Speaker 1>not good, especially if you're landing. You can't get up

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:09.360
<v Speaker 1>and you're just kind of sitting in it, and then

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 1>everyone around you. You're like, I am so sorry, but

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>that's just you.

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Know, Okay, So Alexander needs to be re potty trainer?

0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 2>Do they say they work it out? Like how does

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:18.320
<v Speaker 2>that work?

0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:20.840
<v Speaker 1>They say, Look, they're not ready until they're ready, So

0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:23.280
<v Speaker 1>there's no way of forcing him. Look, we know he

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 1>knows what to do, what to do, He knows what

0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:26.960
<v Speaker 1>to do, he just doesn't want to do it. So

0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:30.120
<v Speaker 1>until he's ready, until he's like I don't want to

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.880
<v Speaker 1>sit in poop, then he's not gonna do it.

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:36.160
<v Speaker 3>He's like like him and like regular people in flossing.

0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 3>You're like, I know I should, but like.

0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that's fair. I was more thinking like he was

0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:43.640
<v Speaker 2>Heath Ledgers, the joker as he's walking away from the

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:45.720
<v Speaker 2>hospital exploding like he doesn't care.

0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:46.560
<v Speaker 1>He does do that.

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:50.040
<v Speaker 3>He'll look back and be like and like give you

0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:51.800
<v Speaker 3>a look, and I'm like, why did you just do that?

0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:53.040
<v Speaker 3>Was like a threat to me.

0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, It's funny how you can just read their faces,

0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 1>especially him, like he just you know, like you know

0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:01.160
<v Speaker 1>exactly what he's saying, thinking what he's about to do.

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 1>He's such a stinker literally literally like he was. He

0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:09.320
<v Speaker 1>was me. You know, I have that kid, you know

0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:11.840
<v Speaker 1>that kid that people talk about when they you know,

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:13.840
<v Speaker 1>like kids come home from school like hey mom, blah

0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.439
<v Speaker 1>blah blah did this today in school? That's our kid.

0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 1>He won't sit and circle. You know, every picture because

0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:21.600

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he just likes it. He's a looner. He likes

0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:43.720

0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:08.040
<v Speaker 2>Scary Street. It comes out in the summertime.

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:11.200

<v Speaker 1>can pre order it. Go ahead, pre order. Let's go

0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:15.960
<v Speaker 1>ahead and make it a best seller. Guy, it'll be

0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:18.520
<v Speaker 1>nice if it was a bestseller. But it's it's so cute,

0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:20.760
<v Speaker 1>and they did the My publisher sent me about four

0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.880
<v Speaker 1>copies of it a couple of months ago, and it

0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:29.160
<v Speaker 1>turned out so good, the the illustrations, like everything is

0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 1>it's it's exactly what I wanted this book to be.

0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:33.400
<v Speaker 1>And this is a book I've been thinking about for

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:35.960
<v Speaker 1>years and it took forever to I mean, it took

0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.400
<v Speaker 1>us three years to get this published. But you know,

0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I've tested it out with them because they do loved

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:44.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, books, and they love Halloween, and of course

0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 1>my kids are gonna love Halloween the goodness because you

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.400
<v Speaker 1>guys love Halloween, and they every single night I have

0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.200
<v Speaker 1>to read them a scary book, like a Halloween book,

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:55.640
<v Speaker 1>five Little Pumpkins, whatever it is. But then when I

0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:57.199
<v Speaker 1>finally got this book, I'm like, well, at least I

0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:00.319
<v Speaker 1>know they're going to like this obsessed. Yeah, to read

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:04.439
<v Speaker 1>Scary Street every single night a few times. I mean

0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:06.960
<v Speaker 1>what if they didn't like it, well, it would be

0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:11.400
<v Speaker 1>the tailing and I'd be very upset awful. But they won't.

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:13.520
<v Speaker 1>They won't let me turn the page because it's a

0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:15.800
<v Speaker 1>picture book, right, so there's like tons of things to

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.600
<v Speaker 1>look at, and so they will not let me turn

0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:21.679
<v Speaker 1>the page until they find like the five clowns, how

0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.920
<v Speaker 1>many pumpkins, this witch, this bad They just know all

0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:26.840
<v Speaker 1>the pages now and obsessed.

0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:30.200
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I like, I like when you have like

0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:32.960
<v Speaker 2>children's books like that that do have lots of little

0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:34.000
<v Speaker 2>things to discover.

0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:38.680
<v Speaker 1>It's it's a Where's Waldo kind of thing? But yeah,

0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean it is kind of word because we're gonna

0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how to do this, but I do

0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:45.080
<v Speaker 1>need to come up with some kind of page that

0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 1>goes with the book, because I do have ideas of

0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.079
<v Speaker 1>making it like a whre's waldo, you know, so it's like, okay,

<v Speaker 1>page three, like can you find the d.

0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Maybe someone could make a little website for you, or

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.280
<v Speaker 2>little web page or whatever for the book that.

0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:00.479
<v Speaker 1>Just has websites went out in like two thousand. I'm

0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:01.880

<v Speaker 3>Okayans for the book an intimate look inside Scary Street.

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:14.160
<v Speaker 1>It's just me reading this book, like like with my

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.400
<v Speaker 1>bare feet. I was going to say with just like

0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:21.360
<v Speaker 1>this is a a s m R.

0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:25.520
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know that frosted tips was actually frosted doos.

<v Speaker 1>him on Frosted Tips. It's mister Jesse McCartney. Hello, Jesse.

0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, I have to do your intro and see

0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:45.040
<v Speaker 1>which of this is actually true, because sometimes they're just

0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:47.360
<v Speaker 1>not well. I would say eighty percent of the times

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:52.120
<v Speaker 1>are not really true. We're just a little off Wikipedia.

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 1>It's like every time you do. And Jesse, I don't

0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:56.560
<v Speaker 1>know if this happens to you, but anytime you read

0:15:56.680 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 1>an article on yourself, how many times has it been

0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:01.000
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent truthful?

0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:03.080
<v Speaker 4>It's usually not not at all.

0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I've never read one thing and just the slightest thing,

0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:07.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's like, oh, he was born here, No,

0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:09.600
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't born there. Oh he was twelve, No, I

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>was actually thirteen. Just slight things, but they're never one

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:14.680
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent right, never never.

0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:16.520
<v Speaker 4>All right, listen, I'm here to confirm.

0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:19.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, let's Okay, I can not confirm or deny this.

0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:22.200
<v Speaker 1>We can today, all right. Jesse started out as a

0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 1>stage performer and got a reoccurring role on All My Children,

0:16:25.360 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 1>which later got two Emmy nominations. Oh Emmy nominated, Brought

0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:33.960
<v Speaker 1>dream Street. We all know dream Street. They've been on

0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:36.680
<v Speaker 1>the show before. We actually got them back together. We're

0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:39.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna claim that we literally did that. We did. They

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:42.080
<v Speaker 1>told us, they said it whispered the show that we

0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:45.280
<v Speaker 1>actually got back together and recorded more music. Thank you.

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:26.639
<v Speaker 3>just said, did I say Lois?

0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:29.960
<v Speaker 1>You kind of mumbled through it. I was like, I

0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 1>think maybe that's a little Southern coment. Lois.

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:36.560

<v Speaker 1>Oh that's correct, My gosh, ding.

0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:00.399
<v Speaker 2>And unfortunately we don't have any more time left and

0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:02.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm out.

0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Welles, I want to know, since we're talking about your writing,

0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:10.159
<v Speaker 1>when did you know that you could write?

0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.199
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I don't know. It was definitely one of

0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.520
<v Speaker 4>those things. I certainly didn't start out as a songwriter,

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.960
<v Speaker 4>you know. When I was signed also so young labels

0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:22.480
<v Speaker 4>as you know, a very apprehensive about letting their young

0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.919
<v Speaker 4>pop artists go in and write their own records. But

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:27.760
<v Speaker 4>I just started working with a lot of really talented

0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:30.480
<v Speaker 4>songwriters who were working on my albums and learned a

0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:32.199
<v Speaker 4>lot from them. I would say by the time I

0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:37.240
<v Speaker 4>was like eighteen nineteen, I started like writing decent songs,

0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 4>like songs that I thought were good, and then by

0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:42.840
<v Speaker 4>the time I was twenty, writing songs that I think

0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:45.679
<v Speaker 4>were valid enough for good enough to be on my

0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.720
<v Speaker 4>own albums. But I think, to be honest with you,

0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:52.199
<v Speaker 4>it wasn't until Bleeding Love that people really started taking

0:18:52.240 --> 0:18:56.480
<v Speaker 4>notice of me as a writer. And that song, too,

0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:59.399
<v Speaker 4>like has such a history because it was intended to

0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 4>go on the depart your album with Leavin and how

0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:03.960
<v Speaker 4>Do You Sleep? And the label is a classic story

0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:06.480
<v Speaker 4>where the label hated it and thought it wasn't bright

0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:10.120
<v Speaker 4>and they were very condescending or you know, writing emails

0:19:10.160 --> 0:19:12.080
<v Speaker 4>like what is this bloody song? Like no one wants

0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:14.159
<v Speaker 4>to hear that? And I was bummed about it, to

0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:15.919
<v Speaker 4>be honest, because I thought it was a really great record.

0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:18.760
<v Speaker 4>And then Ryan Tedder was just who I wrote it with,

0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:22.600
<v Speaker 4>was just very resilient and just kept pitching it to

0:19:22.680 --> 0:19:26.200
<v Speaker 4>other artists, you know, a year two years later did

0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:29.680
<v Speaker 4>he pitched it and and then it fell in Leona's

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:31.560
<v Speaker 4>lap and became a huge record. It was sort of

0:19:31.600 --> 0:19:34.160
<v Speaker 4>like and I told you so moment, but also at

0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:36.520
<v Speaker 4>that point I was like, okay, I'm I'm confident in

0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:37.880
<v Speaker 4>my writing at this point, so.

0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Totally and that song made her career. Oh wow. Yeah,

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.080
<v Speaker 1>and Leona has actually become a good friend of ours

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:46.960
<v Speaker 1>here in Los Angeles. We have kids the same age,

0:19:47.440 --> 0:19:50.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of like it's kind of the same parent circle. Yeah,

0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:54.119
<v Speaker 1>we have cool parents, not like the other junyear who's

0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 1>going to our school this year? They're in the class.

0:19:57.680 --> 0:20:01.320
<v Speaker 1>My gosh, So if you like Brava, well you want

0:20:01.320 --> 0:20:03.240
<v Speaker 1>to go to our school. They weren't in our class

0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:07.080
<v Speaker 1>this school we're starting now, so that okay, maybe that's why.

0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:12.159
<v Speaker 1>So at orientation it was Jackson, Brittany, La, La and

0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:16.240
<v Speaker 1>rand and she and Brock. They're all going to be

0:20:16.240 --> 0:20:18.679
<v Speaker 1>in the same class kids class.

0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 2>It's basically the Valley Elementary School edition or school edition,

0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:23.600
<v Speaker 2>Preschool Valley.

0:20:23.720 --> 0:20:25.800
<v Speaker 1>This is our end. This you want to be on

0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:31.720
<v Speaker 1>the Valley. I'm going to do a fun in the Valley.

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:36.560
<v Speaker 1>I'll be as a friend of uh we love our

0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Ryine tetor also how did you meet Ryan?

0:20:39.920 --> 0:20:42.080
<v Speaker 4>Ryan was a young writer as well. He had just

0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:44.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't even know if Apologize had come out. One

0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.600
<v Speaker 4>Republic was the new band and he, you know, he

0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:51.800
<v Speaker 4>was a songwriter before he you know, was the discovered

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:52.600
<v Speaker 4>him again.

0:20:52.720 --> 0:20:54.080
<v Speaker 1>My mom discovered Bryan Tedder.

0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:57.320
<v Speaker 4>Oh really, oh wow, I hope she got some. I

0:20:57.359 --> 0:20:58.320
<v Speaker 4>hope so she got some.

0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Was not an entertainment. She's a teacher.

0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 4>Oh wow.

0:21:01.680 --> 0:21:04.399
<v Speaker 1>We did this whole Uh yeah, we did this kind

0:21:04.440 --> 0:21:06.720
<v Speaker 1>of contest before American Idol count It's just like that.

0:21:06.920 --> 0:21:09.159
<v Speaker 1>And she went around the country with Robert Wilie and

0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:11.600
<v Speaker 1>all these other people and auditioned everyone. And he was

0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:15.199
<v Speaker 1>our Nashville audition and he made our show, went on

0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:18.040
<v Speaker 1>MTV and he won the whole thing. Pick.

0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:20.159
<v Speaker 4>I hope she hope he cut her in.

0:21:20.400 --> 0:21:23.000
<v Speaker 1>He did not. None of us are cut in. But

0:21:23.080 --> 0:21:24.840
<v Speaker 1>that's okay. We could not get him a record. Deal

0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:27.040
<v Speaker 1>of his life depended on it. Every single person was

0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:29.480
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, no, waight. So like.

0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:33.119
<v Speaker 4>I think I think that's why. I mean, I don't know.

0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:34.320
<v Speaker 4>I don't want to speak for him, but I think

0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:37.520
<v Speaker 4>Apologize was one of those songs where Timberland sort of

0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:39.720
<v Speaker 4>like put the stamp of approval on it. Yeah, it

0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:41.160
<v Speaker 4>was sort of like an endorsement for.

0:21:41.240 --> 0:21:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Tetter, and the way he remixed it was great.

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:46.679
<v Speaker 4>It was brilliant, and he's in amazing produce. I mean,

0:21:46.720 --> 0:21:48.879
<v Speaker 4>he's a super talent, there's no question. But we were

0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:51.119
<v Speaker 4>just writing. I mean we were just I was booking

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:53.760
<v Speaker 4>sessions with writers around town and we got into the

0:21:53.840 --> 0:21:55.880
<v Speaker 4>studio and Bleeding Love was like one of the first

0:21:55.880 --> 0:21:59.520
<v Speaker 4>songs we wrote. And we wrote only a couple other

0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:02.160
<v Speaker 4>songs to get other all of which I don't actually

0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:05.760
<v Speaker 4>think ended up getting published except Bleeding Love, which is fine.

0:22:06.200 --> 0:22:08.600
<v Speaker 4>And but yeah, that's that's kind of how we met.

0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:11.840
<v Speaker 1>What's your process? Like, would like say, okay, hey, Ryan,

0:22:11.960 --> 0:22:14.800
<v Speaker 1>let's you want to write together. Sure, how does that start?

0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Does it start with like a coffee and you just

0:22:17.280 --> 0:22:19.520
<v Speaker 1>start talking ideas or do you get a guitar out

0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:20.840
<v Speaker 1>first and start playing things?

0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:23.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's always its always, you know, always a coffee,

0:22:23.720 --> 0:22:26.240
<v Speaker 4>always a coffee, And we really just booked in the

0:22:26.240 --> 0:22:28.919
<v Speaker 4>studio for the first two three hours. Mostly every session

0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:32.520
<v Speaker 4>starts out with us just talking about whatever traffic usually

0:22:32.560 --> 0:22:36.080
<v Speaker 4>how awful it is. And then I mean, I'm I'm

0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:38.919
<v Speaker 4>a melody lyric lyricist guy, you know, I mean, I

0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:41.479
<v Speaker 4>can play piano a little bit, but I'm not you know,

0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:44.800
<v Speaker 4>a real like a great musician, you know, but I'm

0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:49.200
<v Speaker 4>I'm a fairly good lyricist and great with melody. And

0:22:49.280 --> 0:22:51.240
<v Speaker 4>so Ryan and I got in and he had this

0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:54.639
<v Speaker 4>sort of just basic track, this B three organ and

0:22:54.680 --> 0:22:56.720
<v Speaker 4>it was the chords to Bleeding Love. It's a four

0:22:56.800 --> 0:23:00.159
<v Speaker 4>chord progression. And I just got in the booth and

0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:02.840
<v Speaker 4>started singing melodies over the track, which is generally how

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:05.959
<v Speaker 4>I do things, and and then like pulled up my

0:23:06.000 --> 0:23:09.480
<v Speaker 4>notes app that had hundreds of, you know, lyrical ideas

0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:14.040
<v Speaker 4>and had this sort of concept you know, bleeding love

0:23:14.119 --> 0:23:17.200
<v Speaker 4>or being ripped open or cut open and super dramatic,

0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:19.320
<v Speaker 4>and then we just sort of developed it from there.

0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:21.840
<v Speaker 4>But there's no science to it. I mean, I think

0:23:21.840 --> 0:23:24.240
<v Speaker 4>it's different every time. Sometimes I go in with just

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:27.320
<v Speaker 4>like a lyric idea that I like and try to

0:23:27.359 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 4>expand on it. But you know, most ideas are terrible,

0:23:31.359 --> 0:23:33.480
<v Speaker 4>and once in a while you get a bleeding Love.

0:23:33.960 --> 0:23:37.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, what's the rule of them? Like every twenty the

0:23:37.760 --> 0:23:40.800
<v Speaker 1>songs a hit, just going to keep one and twenty

0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:41.920
<v Speaker 1>then you finally got out.

0:23:42.920 --> 0:23:46.439
<v Speaker 4>That's a good. Maybe it's changed, like twenty percent.

0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:50.160
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm always surprised when I hear when somebody goes,

0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:52.560
<v Speaker 2>we thought it was going to be a hit, you know,

0:23:53.240 --> 0:23:56.119
<v Speaker 2>we knew we had something, and then there's also the

0:23:56.160 --> 0:23:57.919
<v Speaker 2>times when they go we had no idea, it was

0:23:57.960 --> 0:23:58.760
<v Speaker 2>just an extra track.

0:23:58.880 --> 0:24:00.320
<v Speaker 1>So but with Bleeding Love, I heard you.

0:24:00.320 --> 0:24:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Say sort of at the beginning that you were like,

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:04.320
<v Speaker 2>I felt like I had something there.

0:24:04.520 --> 0:24:06.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, what was it that you felt?

0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:09.160
<v Speaker 2>Was it like, oh, the chords were really going together,

0:24:09.280 --> 0:24:11.240
<v Speaker 2>or was it like a lyric turn that just really

0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:12.959
<v Speaker 2>kind of made sense or all of it together?

0:24:13.280 --> 0:24:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Like what was it that you went, oh, oh, yeah.

0:24:15.200 --> 0:24:17.359
<v Speaker 4>I just didn't find a Look, I didn't think there

0:24:17.400 --> 0:24:21.000
<v Speaker 4>was any like wasted lyrics or melody. Like it just

0:24:21.000 --> 0:24:24.240
<v Speaker 4>felt very cohesive and like a beautiful song. You know,

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:27.159
<v Speaker 4>a lot of songs in pop especially, you can feel

0:24:27.200 --> 0:24:30.679
<v Speaker 4>where writers sort of bail out, you know, and you

0:24:30.720 --> 0:24:32.800
<v Speaker 4>get a lot of repetition or things that you just

0:24:33.680 --> 0:24:35.879
<v Speaker 4>are there in this song to sort of, you know,

0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:40.160
<v Speaker 4>keep it going. But the song had a really nice story.

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:45.240
<v Speaker 4>I thought it was very lyrically strong, strong, and yeah,

0:24:45.240 --> 0:24:48.000
<v Speaker 4>and it was just a really pretty record. But again,

0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:50.359
<v Speaker 4>like it just goes to show nobody knows, right because

0:24:50.359 --> 0:24:52.320
<v Speaker 4>the label didn't see it, didn't hear it.

0:24:52.840 --> 0:24:55.000
<v Speaker 1>And it's also how it's promoted. I mean, look at

0:24:55.080 --> 0:24:57.120
<v Speaker 1>Murder on the Dance Floor. It came out years ago

0:24:57.160 --> 0:25:00.000
<v Speaker 1>and now it's so huge. It's all about the time,

0:25:00.000 --> 0:25:02.040
<v Speaker 1>all about who will support it, who's going to put

0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:02.800
<v Speaker 1>in heavy rotation.

0:25:03.440 --> 0:25:07.040
<v Speaker 4>I mean that's just what it Isn't that Jojo Siwah record,

0:25:07.160 --> 0:25:09.160
<v Speaker 4>Because wasn't that like a song that was passed upon?

0:25:09.240 --> 0:25:13.040
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, it was someone else's single in twenty eleven

0:25:13.080 --> 0:25:15.520
<v Speaker 1>and it already came out, her.

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:18.880
<v Speaker 2>Song Karma, right, But yeah, you're right though, Lance, It's

0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:20.480
<v Speaker 2>like there's timing, there's out for me.

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:22.320
<v Speaker 1>It just kind of all has to come together. A

0:25:22.359 --> 0:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of times you're kind of told what to watch

0:25:24.000 --> 0:25:27.560
<v Speaker 1>and listen to, especially back in my day. I CRL.

0:25:27.600 --> 0:25:29.119
<v Speaker 1>It's like, here are the ten songs you have to

0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:32.360
<v Speaker 1>like kids. It's from Corn to Limp Biscuit to Backstreet

0:25:32.440 --> 0:25:35.159
<v Speaker 1>Bat Britney Spears. But you're kind of forced to like

0:25:35.240 --> 0:25:39.360
<v Speaker 1>this now that there's so many different platforms TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, everything,

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:42.400
<v Speaker 1>everyone's kind of segmented and kind of you can find

0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:44.399
<v Speaker 1>your own favorite music and you never hear it on

0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:46.120
<v Speaker 1>the radio. And that's the thing.

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:49.399
<v Speaker 3>Now there's just so many outlets and there's so many

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:52.760
<v Speaker 3>more artists now that it's like it's good and bad.

0:25:52.760 --> 0:25:54.640
<v Speaker 3>You have so many more opportunity to put yourself out there.

0:25:54.640 --> 0:25:58.800
<v Speaker 3>But you're now against thousands or more thousands.

0:25:58.440 --> 0:26:00.119
<v Speaker 1>And they's like, well, how do I break out? And

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:02.760
<v Speaker 1>I always tell like new artists especially, like don't worry

0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:06.400
<v Speaker 1>about that. Focus on just doing the best you. Your

0:26:06.440 --> 0:26:09.359
<v Speaker 1>fans will find you, and who cares if it's on

0:26:09.480 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the radio. If you have your fan base and they're

0:26:12.040 --> 0:26:14.119
<v Speaker 1>coming to your shows and buying your music, that's all

0:26:14.160 --> 0:26:18.800
<v Speaker 1>you need. That's what you're doing. Michael Jackson, so state like,

0:26:19.000 --> 0:26:21.080
<v Speaker 1>just have your crowd and there you go. You have

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:21.480
<v Speaker 1>a career.

0:26:21.480 --> 0:26:25.160
<v Speaker 4>Now it wants to be like radio really minted a song.

0:26:25.240 --> 0:26:27.760
<v Speaker 4>You know, it's either it made her, it would make

0:26:27.840 --> 0:26:29.919
<v Speaker 4>or break a song. And now it just seems like

0:26:30.560 --> 0:26:33.800
<v Speaker 4>anything is possible. You have a viral moment that the

0:26:33.880 --> 0:26:39.240
<v Speaker 4>Jojo song just needed incredible choreography, and then all of

0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:41.919
<v Speaker 4>a sudden, you know it's a huge record. So it

0:26:42.040 --> 0:26:43.120
<v Speaker 4>just depends on.

0:26:46.480 --> 0:26:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Choreographer.

0:26:48.000 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Is one of the biggest choreographers he's Toddrick's choreographer. He's

0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:55.280
<v Speaker 3>Lady Gaga's Richie Squirrel.

0:26:56.200 --> 0:26:59.880
<v Speaker 1>This is Richie Squirrel. That's crazy And I don't know Richie.

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:03.280
<v Speaker 1>You know her famous little head banging seat. It's very

0:27:03.400 --> 0:27:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Gaga with the arms and that.

0:27:04.920 --> 0:27:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Like he did Bad Romance, he did all he did

0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:10.000
<v Speaker 3>rain on me, all of those videos is the same quarreo.

0:27:10.080 --> 0:27:13.119
<v Speaker 1>I can now see it. I can see it's Lady

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:14.359
<v Speaker 1>like a monster.

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:17.199
<v Speaker 2>But Jesse, you you started off in the kind of

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:21.080
<v Speaker 2>the old paradigm with the radio and that sort of thing,

0:27:21.160 --> 0:27:23.680
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know if maybe you did chopping balls

0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:25.480
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that, like you had to.

0:27:25.400 --> 0:27:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Do promo tour.

0:27:27.320 --> 0:27:30.359
<v Speaker 2>There's still very much have a career and the new paradigm,

0:27:30.440 --> 0:27:33.119
<v Speaker 2>and it is very much a new paradigm, like be

0:27:33.240 --> 0:27:36.280
<v Speaker 2>able to make the transition not everybody is very hard and.

0:27:36.200 --> 0:27:38.040
<v Speaker 4>I hated it and I kind of still do. But

0:27:38.800 --> 0:27:40.720
<v Speaker 4>it is part of the new paradigm. Like you said,

0:27:40.760 --> 0:27:42.680
<v Speaker 4>like you just have to figure out a way to adapt,

0:27:42.880 --> 0:27:46.120
<v Speaker 4>and that's sort of how it's done now. And it's

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:49.280
<v Speaker 4>so much more work, as you guys all know. But

0:27:49.520 --> 0:27:51.480
<v Speaker 4>you know that is you know, you got to play

0:27:51.520 --> 0:27:51.840
<v Speaker 4>the game.

0:27:52.720 --> 0:28:09.440
<v Speaker 1>No doubt. Let's talk a little about dream Street because

0:28:09.440 --> 0:28:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I said, we had some of your boys on the show,

0:28:11.560 --> 0:28:13.639
<v Speaker 1>and they kind of like, you know what, maybe we

0:28:13.680 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 1>should get in the studio and they did, which was

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:17.800
<v Speaker 1>like fun. And we just saw them at the iHeart

0:28:17.840 --> 0:28:20.479
<v Speaker 1>Awards and they're like, oh my god, we actually like

0:28:20.520 --> 0:28:23.760
<v Speaker 1>because of the show, did this now you just brought

0:28:23.760 --> 0:28:25.200
<v Speaker 1>them out on your show in New York.

0:28:25.320 --> 0:28:27.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, what was that like? Well, they didn't come on stage,

0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:31.280
<v Speaker 4>but they came backstage, and which was fun. They came

0:28:31.280 --> 0:28:34.000
<v Speaker 4>to my New York show and yeah, we just sort

0:28:34.000 --> 0:28:36.280
<v Speaker 4>of we had a reunion like a year ago, just

0:28:36.320 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 4>on our own time. We went up to Montana and

0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:39.840
<v Speaker 4>did like a ski trip together for about a year

0:28:39.880 --> 0:28:42.440
<v Speaker 4>and they rented a house and went skiing, and we

0:28:42.480 --> 0:28:45.160
<v Speaker 4>got to reconnect after literally a decade or more of

0:28:45.360 --> 0:28:48.280
<v Speaker 4>really seeing each other. And our lives are so different

0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:51.280
<v Speaker 4>now half of you know, half of them have multiple kids,

0:28:51.480 --> 0:28:53.760
<v Speaker 4>and I think Greg is on his sixth kid now.

0:28:54.360 --> 0:28:56.800
<v Speaker 1>But it's always it's kind of like it's kind of

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:58.480
<v Speaker 1>growing up with your cousins and then you all grow

0:28:58.560 --> 0:29:00.000
<v Speaker 1>up and you don't really see your cousins that much

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:01.960
<v Speaker 1>much anymore. But then when you get back together, it's

0:29:02.000 --> 0:29:02.840
<v Speaker 1>just amazing.

0:29:02.880 --> 0:29:05.160
<v Speaker 4>And you we candel but they came to the New

0:29:05.240 --> 0:29:08.239
<v Speaker 4>York show and we all had a few drinks or

0:29:08.240 --> 0:29:11.680
<v Speaker 4>more backstage, and we ended up singing like some acapella

0:29:11.760 --> 0:29:15.560
<v Speaker 4>and you know, reminiscing and doing a little dancing backstage

0:29:15.560 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 4>for TikTok.

0:29:16.280 --> 0:29:18.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's all. It's a TikTok world. We just

0:29:18.600 --> 0:29:22.120
<v Speaker 1>live in it. What would you say, besides beautiful soul,

0:29:23.120 --> 0:29:25.160
<v Speaker 1>what is your favorite? Actually, beautiful soul might not be

0:29:25.200 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 1>your favorite sing I know it's the crowd favorite, probably

0:29:28.040 --> 0:29:30.000
<v Speaker 1>like you got up singing the song, But what do

0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:32.200
<v Speaker 1>you like to sing on stage? What is your favorite?

0:29:32.560 --> 0:29:35.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's always the new stuff, just selfishly right

0:29:35.080 --> 0:29:37.880
<v Speaker 4>when you put out new music this last tour, I

0:29:37.880 --> 0:29:40.000
<v Speaker 4>did you know we I did? I put out an

0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:42.760
<v Speaker 4>EP earlier this year, and it's just such a to me.

0:29:42.880 --> 0:29:46.960
<v Speaker 4>It's just great, great songwriting, and it's it was all.

0:29:47.000 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 4>It was produced, you know, in in a studio with

0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:52.000
<v Speaker 4>live instrumentation and a live band, which is something I

0:29:52.000 --> 0:29:54.520
<v Speaker 4>haven't done in many, many years. So that stuff is

0:29:54.520 --> 0:29:56.720
<v Speaker 4>super fun for me. But of course playing the hits,

0:29:56.920 --> 0:29:59.040
<v Speaker 4>I feel like I've come full circle on beautiful soul.

0:29:59.120 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 4>You know, there was a time where I was really

0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 4>annoyed playing that song. Yeah, just I mean, you know

0:30:03.440 --> 0:30:05.760
<v Speaker 4>how that is. But the song is twenty years old

0:30:05.760 --> 0:30:08.400
<v Speaker 4>this year, it's about to hit his twenty year anniversary,

0:30:08.960 --> 0:30:12.000
<v Speaker 4>and now, like you play it and like young moms

0:30:12.040 --> 0:30:14.000
<v Speaker 4>are in the audience with their five year old daughters

0:30:14.040 --> 0:30:17.080
<v Speaker 4>singing the song, and there's like this whole new generation

0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:19.760
<v Speaker 4>of kids that now know beautiful soul and.

0:30:19.600 --> 0:30:23.760
<v Speaker 1>It holds up. It is a really solid.

0:30:22.920 --> 0:30:26.360
<v Speaker 4>Song, and like, I think you forget that until till

0:30:26.440 --> 0:30:28.560
<v Speaker 4>just now am I realizing, Oh, well, that's that song

0:30:28.640 --> 0:30:29.920
<v Speaker 4>really has stood the test of time.

0:30:29.960 --> 0:30:34.000
<v Speaker 2>And you see those new listeners vibe to it. I

0:30:34.040 --> 0:30:36.320
<v Speaker 2>love it, and you're like, yeah, this song is a jam,

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:38.760
<v Speaker 2>it's nice song, is a good song.

0:30:38.840 --> 0:30:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, that's cool. Twenty years.

0:30:42.320 --> 0:30:44.320
<v Speaker 4>That's twenty years right now, it's crazy.

0:30:45.440 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Well are we going to be seeing you on tour?

0:30:47.440 --> 0:30:50.240
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, So I finished a tour this past spring

0:30:50.440 --> 0:30:52.920
<v Speaker 4>and it was a big success. So we're going to

0:30:53.000 --> 0:30:55.360
<v Speaker 4>go back out I think in October and do another

0:30:55.400 --> 0:30:58.320
<v Speaker 4>fall leg. So I think I'm gonna tour October November

0:30:58.400 --> 0:31:03.280
<v Speaker 4>all through the US and Canada. We're still like finalizing everything.

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:06.000
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, I think early October the tour will kick off.

0:31:06.360 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 4>It's gonna be uh like part two, Part two of

0:31:08.800 --> 0:31:10.840
<v Speaker 4>the All's Well tour. So we're doing that again this

0:31:10.920 --> 0:31:14.320
<v Speaker 4>year and then hopefully run into next year and do

0:31:14.360 --> 0:31:18.920
<v Speaker 4>something else, maybe next summer with another artist. Oh, I

0:31:18.960 --> 0:31:22.920
<v Speaker 4>don't know if it's confirmed yet, but you know, I

0:31:22.960 --> 0:31:24.800
<v Speaker 4>haven't done a lot of co headlining, but it would

0:31:24.800 --> 0:31:28.240
<v Speaker 4>be fun to do that, you know. I do like touring.

0:31:28.280 --> 0:31:30.040
<v Speaker 4>I mean it's a lot harder as you get older,

0:31:30.560 --> 0:31:32.560
<v Speaker 4>but it is a lot of fun and it's nice

0:31:32.560 --> 0:31:34.760
<v Speaker 4>to reconnect with the fans. And I just love performing live.

0:31:34.800 --> 0:31:37.760
<v Speaker 4>It's my favorite aspect of the business. I grew up

0:31:37.800 --> 0:31:40.719
<v Speaker 4>on stage and so I just feel like that's my

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 4>my happy place, my safe place.

0:31:42.480 --> 0:31:44.480
<v Speaker 1>My happy place is the bus. I love it. I

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:47.240
<v Speaker 1>love it on the bus YEP. Yeah, I sleep better.

0:31:47.480 --> 0:31:50.240
<v Speaker 1>I just everything. I just love traveling. Do you but yeah,

0:31:50.320 --> 0:31:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I do.

0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:53.440
<v Speaker 4>My wife and dog came out, and love them both

0:31:53.560 --> 0:31:55.600
<v Speaker 4>very much. But my dog is getting older and she

0:31:55.800 --> 0:31:58.200
<v Speaker 4>just does not sleep, and we sleep in the back

0:31:58.240 --> 0:32:00.200
<v Speaker 4>together and she has to be in the middle of

0:32:00.280 --> 0:32:03.280
<v Speaker 4>us because she is separation anxiety. So I'm up every

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:03.880
<v Speaker 4>three hours.

0:32:03.920 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, no I could do that.

0:32:05.400 --> 0:32:06.800
<v Speaker 4>She had to go home after the first.

0:32:06.680 --> 0:32:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Two weeks, got to work. Yeah. Do you notice when

0:32:11.800 --> 0:32:14.480
<v Speaker 1>you tour, is there a place in this country or

0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:17.480
<v Speaker 1>around the world that you're like, this is my biggest

0:32:17.720 --> 0:32:18.920
<v Speaker 1>fan base right here?

0:32:19.240 --> 0:32:21.280
<v Speaker 4>Probably the East Coast because it's where it all started.

0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:24.120
<v Speaker 4>I would say New York is uh kind of where

0:32:24.160 --> 0:32:26.120
<v Speaker 4>it all started, you know, So New York, anywhere in

0:32:26.160 --> 0:32:29.320
<v Speaker 4>the Tri state area, the Midwest is great, to Chicago,

0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 4>and you know anywhere in Michigan, Wisconsin, the South. It's funny.

0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:38.000
<v Speaker 4>LA is probably my probably least.

0:32:37.920 --> 0:32:40.760
<v Speaker 1>That's for every artist. It's the worst.

0:32:41.320 --> 0:32:44.360
<v Speaker 4>It's just it's just but this last tour was great,

0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:46.120
<v Speaker 4>like we you know, we sold out at the Wiltern.

0:32:46.160 --> 0:32:48.280
<v Speaker 4>We're going to do it again, I think later this year.

0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:51.719
<v Speaker 4>But it was. Yeah, there's definitely pockets of the country

0:32:51.760 --> 0:32:52.640
<v Speaker 4>that are stronger than others.

0:32:52.680 --> 0:32:54.560
<v Speaker 1>It's weird because La you can get the people there,

0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:57.240
<v Speaker 1>it's just they're not as hyped as everyone else.

0:32:57.080 --> 0:32:58.360
<v Speaker 4>And they show up two hours late.

0:32:58.440 --> 0:33:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because I guess just got so much stuff. Yeah,

0:33:03.000 --> 0:33:05.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's a lot of industry so that you know,

0:33:05.480 --> 0:33:08.520
<v Speaker 1>the front two rows will be executive people were like, oh,

0:33:08.600 --> 0:33:10.200
<v Speaker 1>come on now, I got to perform. The people sitting

0:33:10.240 --> 0:33:12.520
<v Speaker 1>down the whole time so much energy.

0:33:12.600 --> 0:33:15.520
<v Speaker 4>Van have like one hundred tickets too for your like friends,

0:33:15.560 --> 0:33:19.280
<v Speaker 4>family agents and managers, and about half of them show,

0:33:19.920 --> 0:33:21.680
<v Speaker 4>you know, and they had the excuse like, oh, we

0:33:21.720 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 4>thought the show is tomorrow.

0:33:23.240 --> 0:33:26.400
<v Speaker 2>They pull like the Larry David on you like, like

0:33:26.520 --> 0:33:28.800
<v Speaker 2>I think Billy Joel or something like that. He's like, no,

0:33:29.000 --> 0:33:31.800
<v Speaker 2>that that front two rows gott to be for he

0:33:31.840 --> 0:33:34.480
<v Speaker 2>has does yeah, he has. I think he has his

0:33:34.560 --> 0:33:37.600
<v Speaker 2>guys like go out and basically move fans up to

0:33:37.720 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 2>fill in that row.

0:33:38.880 --> 0:33:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Would yeah, because he has to do that. That's what

0:33:42.320 --> 0:33:44.240
<v Speaker 1>you want to see all our guests. You're gonna sit

0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:47.360

<v Speaker 1>this came out. How long did it take you to do.

0:34:12.880 --> 0:34:15.120
<v Speaker 4>This one probably about a year I was in you know,

0:34:15.160 --> 0:34:16.680
<v Speaker 4>I was home. I was listening to a lot of

0:34:16.719 --> 0:34:20.640
<v Speaker 4>like old school seventies yacht rocky kind of type move music,

0:34:20.719 --> 0:34:22.640
<v Speaker 4>and listened to a lot of Hall and Oates and

0:34:22.719 --> 0:34:24.360
<v Speaker 4>d Bars and just music.

0:34:24.120 --> 0:34:26.759
<v Speaker 1>That I was by the pool back you just named it,

0:34:27.239 --> 0:34:27.759
<v Speaker 1>and I.

0:34:27.800 --> 0:34:30.560
<v Speaker 4>Just fell in love with just the live musicianship of

0:34:30.880 --> 0:34:34.040
<v Speaker 4>that time in music, and I wanted to do that again,

0:34:34.080 --> 0:34:36.440
<v Speaker 4>so I put I got a producer to put you know,

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:40.440
<v Speaker 4>really amazing band together, studio guys who've played on everything

0:34:40.480 --> 0:34:42.800
<v Speaker 4>from Atlantis Morris At to John Mayer and some of

0:34:42.920 --> 0:34:45.560
<v Speaker 4>like the best guys that play in the in the

0:34:45.560 --> 0:34:48.839
<v Speaker 4>studio and wrote the songs, you know, and then went

0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:51.880
<v Speaker 4>to the studio and arranged everything and had live horns,

0:34:51.920 --> 0:34:54.399
<v Speaker 4>and it was just nice. It was nice to get

0:34:54.400 --> 0:34:56.279
<v Speaker 4>back to like the roots that you don't hear a

0:34:56.320 --> 0:34:58.200
<v Speaker 4>lot of that and pop music anymore. I feel like

0:34:58.239 --> 0:35:01.560
<v Speaker 4>everything is programmed digitally. It just had this sort of

0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:06.080
<v Speaker 4>you know, throwback feel to it that I love. And yeah,

0:35:06.160 --> 0:35:09.600
<v Speaker 4>it's it's a great EP. And I wouldn't say it's racy,

0:35:09.680 --> 0:35:14.399
<v Speaker 4>but it's certainly more you know, Yeah, yeah, it's it's

0:35:14.520 --> 0:35:17.440
<v Speaker 4>you know it's it sounds like a thirty seven year

0:35:17.480 --> 0:35:18.360
<v Speaker 4>old man's music.

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, just having a horn section that you

0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:30.360
<v Speaker 2>get to be like porn racy.

0:35:30.480 --> 0:35:36.680
<v Speaker 1>It's like a word that my like racy lyrics. Anyway, Okay, sorry.

0:35:36.760 --> 0:35:39.600
<v Speaker 2>I should I should the question.

0:35:39.800 --> 0:35:40.600
<v Speaker 1>No, No, you have a.

0:35:40.560 --> 0:35:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Big porn section that we shouldn't talk about, but you

0:35:43.520 --> 0:35:44.440
<v Speaker 2>have a big horn section.

0:35:44.640 --> 0:35:44.719
<v Speaker 4>No.

0:35:45.120 --> 0:35:47.600
<v Speaker 2>But being able to like work with musicians like that

0:35:47.680 --> 0:35:49.799
<v Speaker 2>and come up with a couple of like cool horn

0:35:49.880 --> 0:35:51.839
<v Speaker 2>licks and all that kind of stuff. I mean that

0:35:52.080 --> 0:35:53.880
<v Speaker 2>to me, that's like my dream. I would love to

0:35:53.880 --> 0:35:55.319
<v Speaker 2>be able to do that, to work with a band

0:35:55.320 --> 0:35:57.000
<v Speaker 2>and be like, what if you guys popped in right

0:35:57.040 --> 0:35:59.520
<v Speaker 2>here should do it? Well, I'm not talking about me,

0:35:59.640 --> 0:36:02.239
<v Speaker 2>but I'm about you. Was like, how much fun was that?

0:36:02.360 --> 0:36:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Especially because you your roots are not necessarily working with

0:36:05.640 --> 0:36:07.840
<v Speaker 2>a live band in right way. So yeah, talk a

0:36:07.880 --> 0:36:10.239
<v Speaker 2>little bit about that or that process of working like

0:36:10.480 --> 0:36:12.120
<v Speaker 2>really seasoned studio musicians.

0:36:12.200 --> 0:36:13.799
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean it's great. You know, you write, you

0:36:13.840 --> 0:36:17.319
<v Speaker 4>write a song, and then you get to arrange it.

0:36:17.360 --> 0:36:19.960
<v Speaker 4>You decide like, okay, we want horns in this section,

0:36:21.160 --> 0:36:23.120
<v Speaker 4>and you know, I left a lot of that to

0:36:23.200 --> 0:36:25.600
<v Speaker 4>the producer right to sort of help arrange those parts.

0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:28.440
<v Speaker 4>But it's just so fun being in a room with

0:36:28.520 --> 0:36:31.160
<v Speaker 4>other really really talented people who are at the you know,

0:36:31.800 --> 0:36:34.439
<v Speaker 4>are the best of what they do, and you sort

0:36:34.440 --> 0:36:36.560
<v Speaker 4>of leave it to them to bring their a game

0:36:37.080 --> 0:36:41.640
<v Speaker 4>and help crystallize your vision, you know. And we recorded

0:36:42.160 --> 0:36:47.280
<v Speaker 4>in Santa Monica at this record studio that I'm blanking

0:36:47.320 --> 0:36:50.839
<v Speaker 4>on right now, but like legendary artists have played through there.

0:36:51.520 --> 0:36:54.839
<v Speaker 4>Carol King actually stopped by at the session and gave

0:36:54.880 --> 0:36:57.400
<v Speaker 4>her two cents to like the musicians, which was so funny.

0:36:57.440 --> 0:37:00.560
<v Speaker 4>She's no slouch, She's no slouch, and like all musicians

0:37:00.560 --> 0:37:03.160
<v Speaker 4>were freaking out, you know, and she's she's up there saying, hey,

0:37:03.160 --> 0:37:06.080
<v Speaker 4>maybe uh play a little less drum fill on this?

0:37:06.360 --> 0:37:10.279
<v Speaker 1>You want me to put my sticks down?

0:37:12.239 --> 0:37:14.880
<v Speaker 4>No, it's just it's just such a great process, and

0:37:14.920 --> 0:37:16.200
<v Speaker 4>it made it fun for me again.

0:37:16.239 --> 0:37:16.400
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:37:16.440 --> 0:37:20.320
<v Speaker 4>It was like this reinvigorated my love for music for sure.

0:37:20.520 --> 0:37:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen her Broadway show Beautiful?

0:37:23.280 --> 0:37:23.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:37:23.719 --> 0:37:24.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh it's so good.

0:37:25.080 --> 0:37:25.680
<v Speaker 4>She's amazing.

0:37:25.719 --> 0:37:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that was really really good. Uh, your album departure?

0:37:29.239 --> 0:37:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Are you going to be highlighting that album at all?

0:37:31.680 --> 0:37:32.480
<v Speaker 1>On the upcoming tour.

0:37:32.960 --> 0:37:35.600
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I definitely play a lot of those songs Leavin. Obviously,

0:37:35.680 --> 0:37:38.160
<v Speaker 4>body Language is probably one of my favorites to play live.

0:37:38.200 --> 0:37:40.240
<v Speaker 4>I did that with Tea Pain back in like two thousand.

0:37:42.080 --> 0:37:44.400
<v Speaker 4>Te Pain is the best. That's probably one of my

0:37:44.400 --> 0:37:47.439
<v Speaker 4>favorite songs. I love that album and that was sort

0:37:47.440 --> 0:37:49.120
<v Speaker 4>of that album too, is when we kind of made

0:37:49.120 --> 0:37:52.920
<v Speaker 4>the shift from like really traditional pop, like beautiful soul

0:37:53.000 --> 0:37:57.720
<v Speaker 4>to a slightly more rhythmic, urban sounding album and worked

0:37:57.719 --> 0:38:00.000
<v Speaker 4>with you know, Tea Pain and Ludacris and Sean Garrett

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:02.480
<v Speaker 4>and kind of went down that path a little bit

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:04.400
<v Speaker 4>and you started hearing more R and B tones to

0:38:04.440 --> 0:38:07.280
<v Speaker 4>the to the music and yeah, it's that's that record

0:38:07.440 --> 0:38:09.960
<v Speaker 4>is There's so many good ones on that album. But

0:38:09.960 --> 0:38:11.359
<v Speaker 4>for sure I'll be playing a lot of the songs

0:38:11.360 --> 0:38:13.920
<v Speaker 4>I always I never deprived fans from the hit songs

0:38:13.920 --> 0:38:16.120
<v Speaker 4>like you can't do that on tour. There's nothing more

0:38:16.160 --> 0:38:17.800
<v Speaker 4>frustrating and washing an artists play.

0:38:17.719 --> 0:38:22.239
<v Speaker 1>All of his and nothing just song to play the

0:38:22.320 --> 0:38:24.400
<v Speaker 1>one you're really waiting for. Come on, I had to

0:38:24.400 --> 0:38:26.440
<v Speaker 1>wait an hour and a half for that. Yeah, right,

0:38:26.680 --> 0:38:28.839
<v Speaker 1>who what is your new artist? Right now that you're

0:38:29.239 --> 0:38:29.960
<v Speaker 1>you have your eye On.

0:38:30.840 --> 0:38:34.879
<v Speaker 4>There's a band called Lawrence. They love Lawrence. Yeah, Yeah,

0:38:34.920 --> 0:38:37.440
<v Speaker 4>they're incredible. They're they're out of New York, I believe,

0:38:37.800 --> 0:38:43.040
<v Speaker 4>Uh Gracie and and her brother, yeah, Clyde, and they're

0:38:43.080 --> 0:38:46.920
<v Speaker 4>just super super talents, like they are real musicians. And

0:38:46.960 --> 0:38:48.799
<v Speaker 4>Clyde is just he reminds me of like a young

0:38:49.200 --> 0:38:52.960
<v Speaker 4>like Michael McDonald. There's something he's got, this amazing raspy voice.

0:38:53.400 --> 0:38:56.440
<v Speaker 2>I am a massive band too that goes on tour

0:38:56.960 --> 0:38:57.439
<v Speaker 2>with them.

0:38:57.680 --> 0:38:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:38:58.239 --> 0:39:00.279
<v Speaker 4>They opened for like the Jonas Brothers a couple of

0:39:00.320 --> 0:39:02.799
<v Speaker 4>years ago, and they sort of organically built this fan base.

0:39:02.800 --> 0:39:06.120
<v Speaker 4>They're playing like Radio City by themselves in New York,

0:39:06.160 --> 0:39:07.800
<v Speaker 4>which is amazing. And I think I'm going to go

0:39:07.840 --> 0:39:10.640
<v Speaker 4>out and work with them in August this year and

0:39:10.680 --> 0:39:12.239
<v Speaker 4>do some writing with them. We're trying to put that

0:39:12.320 --> 0:39:15.400
<v Speaker 4>together just because literally I hit them up on Instagram

0:39:15.520 --> 0:39:17.560
<v Speaker 4>was like, hey, I am obsessed with you guys. I

0:39:17.600 --> 0:39:18.320
<v Speaker 4>love your music.

0:39:18.640 --> 0:39:23.080
<v Speaker 1>They got like a pop funk, soul kind of thing.

0:39:23.440 --> 0:39:26.400
<v Speaker 4>So fairly yeah, and I think it's really important to

0:39:26.440 --> 0:39:29.160
<v Speaker 4>have that for this generation where I think it's lacking.

0:39:29.239 --> 0:39:30.879
<v Speaker 4>Quite frankly, it's so much heart.

0:39:32.120 --> 0:39:34.839
<v Speaker 1>How great is it as an artist that you can

0:39:35.000 --> 0:39:37.400
<v Speaker 1>reach people that you want to read through a DM.

0:39:37.480 --> 0:39:40.600
<v Speaker 4>These days it's the best. I mean, it's it's you

0:39:40.760 --> 0:39:43.960
<v Speaker 4>truly can skip so many different steps. Now you don't

0:39:44.000 --> 0:39:46.279
<v Speaker 4>have to call the PR team or the managers or

0:39:46.360 --> 0:39:49.440
<v Speaker 4>like the deal with all the emails back and forth.

0:39:49.480 --> 0:39:51.759
<v Speaker 4>You can just literally hit them up and if they're

0:39:51.760 --> 0:39:53.400
<v Speaker 4>into it, they hate you back, and if not, they

0:39:53.480 --> 0:39:54.160
<v Speaker 4>leave you on red.

0:39:54.960 --> 0:39:57.760
<v Speaker 1>What's her name that I'm loving right now? The rowans

0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:02.919
<v Speaker 1>that's a meteor Yeah, no kidding.

0:40:03.680 --> 0:40:07.920
<v Speaker 4>But I love Zach Bryan who yeh, super talent.

0:40:10.440 --> 0:40:12.839
<v Speaker 1>You know what. I'd love to hear you do. And

0:40:12.920 --> 0:40:17.759
<v Speaker 1>Ryan just did this recently with maybe David Getta maybe

0:40:18.200 --> 0:40:20.000
<v Speaker 1>is that who we just did it with or it was.

0:40:21.120 --> 0:40:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I want to hear you get with Caigo yeah, yeah,

0:40:24.160 --> 0:40:27.719
<v Speaker 1>and do some amazing like dance hit.

0:40:27.920 --> 0:40:28.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:40:28.160 --> 0:40:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to hear this in clubs. I want an

0:40:30.320 --> 0:40:33.959
<v Speaker 1>M version of it. I think you would kill it interesting.

0:40:34.440 --> 0:40:38.160
<v Speaker 4>And Carol g they sampled the Bleeding Love and did

0:40:38.200 --> 0:40:45.480
<v Speaker 4>a song called I Think Yeah, but yeah, it would

0:40:45.480 --> 0:40:48.640
<v Speaker 4>be super fun to work in an E d M environment.

0:40:48.680 --> 0:40:50.279
<v Speaker 4>I've never really done that. That would be fun.

0:40:50.520 --> 0:40:52.279
<v Speaker 1>It would be fun. I would love I mean, I

0:40:52.280 --> 0:40:54.080
<v Speaker 1>think it would have been fun if and Sync would

0:40:54.120 --> 0:40:56.360
<v Speaker 1>have done that with But back in you know, I

0:40:56.440 --> 0:40:59.040
<v Speaker 1>keep saying it, back in our day, DJ's really weren't

0:40:59.040 --> 0:41:01.000
<v Speaker 1>a thing. I mean, it wasn't it, and that.

0:41:01.000 --> 0:41:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Music was considered more like circuit and techno and that

0:41:04.160 --> 0:41:07.600
<v Speaker 2>sort of thing. It it wasn't mainstream, and it hadn't

0:41:07.760 --> 0:41:11.880
<v Speaker 2>found its way into this sort of where so lyrical.

0:41:11.960 --> 0:41:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Now there's there's so much more lyric there's so much

0:41:13.920 --> 0:41:18.200
<v Speaker 2>more melody and am I saying to I mean, back

0:41:18.239 --> 0:41:18.959
<v Speaker 2>then it was just.

0:41:19.200 --> 0:41:21.520
<v Speaker 1>The actual music. It wasn't really like a lot of

0:41:21.520 --> 0:41:24.600
<v Speaker 1>collapse and we weren't going to do.

0:41:26.360 --> 0:41:29.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but no that that that would be very cool

0:41:29.719 --> 0:41:31.480
<v Speaker 2>if you climbed into that world a little bit. I

0:41:31.480 --> 0:41:33.600
<v Speaker 2>feel like you could go a lot of different places.

0:41:33.960 --> 0:41:36.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, the Lawrence is not a surprise to me

0:41:36.440 --> 0:41:39.600
<v Speaker 2>because you you're such a great singer and you're a

0:41:39.600 --> 0:41:41.759
<v Speaker 2>great songwriter, and I feel like you could fit in

0:41:41.840 --> 0:41:43.399
<v Speaker 2>that so beautifully.

0:41:43.560 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>But I think there's a lot of places you could play.

0:41:45.840 --> 0:41:47.520
