Speaker 1: They change anything. Nope, ladies, gentlemen, welcome to another episode
Speaker 1: of Busting with the Boys, a special episode of Bust
Speaker 1: with a Boys, Episode two twenty six. Because we had
Speaker 1: a week off boys and we're back and the boys.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, there's a lighter energy in here.
Speaker 1: You could feel it. Two weeks ago, everybody was a
Speaker 1: little bit of drained. Got the batteries back to neutral.
Speaker 1: Now we got a big six months. Little in the color, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want to a little bit of color on JP.
Speaker 1: Yeah it seems like Mitch. You got a little sunburn going. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Jack's always got a little all of towns I always
Speaker 1: got that. Yeah, good for you, Jack, But all of
Speaker 1: us who are fighting that good fight, everyone's got a
Speaker 1: little more of a tan on them. Yeah it looks good.
Speaker 1: But you know who, uh who never lets the batteries
Speaker 1: go down.
Speaker 2: Never.
Speaker 1: That's the Chevy Silverado. Always keeps their tone, always keeps
Speaker 1: their tone. You know where truck guy's doing through and
Speaker 1: the Chevy Silverado has been a partner with unsoppable grit
Speaker 1: and determination. It's been our most valuable truck and now
Speaker 1: the first ever all electric Silverado joins the franchise. We
Speaker 1: got a chance to see these things and experience it.
Speaker 1: It is a game changer, available for and mile range
Speaker 1: GM estimated on a full charge over ten feet of
Speaker 1: length in the bed with a multi flex tailgate combined
Speaker 1: with the multi flex midgate large seventeen inch diagonal display screen,
Speaker 1: it can toe up to ten thousand pounds of max
Speaker 1: towing zero to sixty and under four point five seconds
Speaker 1: with Wow Mode still a working title. Still my forty
Speaker 1: time back then, you're forty time back in the day.
Speaker 1: Up to the press of one hundred and eighty five
Speaker 1: foot pounds of torque. Head over to Chevy dot com
Speaker 1: to learn more.
Speaker 3: You can haul around all of your tailgating needs. We
Speaker 3: got to Taylor was saying, we got a change to
Speaker 3: experience this bad boy. Where were we what we were in?
Speaker 3: We're in Colorado, Colorado, that's Colorado. Bought to go to Arizona.
Speaker 3: We're in Colorado.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, caught an L there because the boys team Lawan, Yeah,
Speaker 1: mopped us up a little bit with it. But which
Speaker 1: brings us into a good segment because I caught a
Speaker 1: big W. Caught a massive W. But I think it
Speaker 1: even bigger W was what you caught three days later
Speaker 1: at the ASU Spring game. And that brings us to
Speaker 1: what's going to happen tonight at six thirty pm c
Speaker 1: T time. Right there is a charity softball game, and
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, the sick bastards who put this game together,
Speaker 1: you have put me and Will on different teams.
Speaker 3: Everybody always wants to do that that. I was like,
Speaker 3: we're gonna split up Will and Taylor. We're gonna split
Speaker 3: you guys over. Put you guys up, and we're glue guys.
Speaker 3: You can't have two glue guys and one and one
Speaker 3: locker room. It always causes that that silent competitiveness that
Speaker 3: goes on.
Speaker 1: But here's the deal. That's me. I actually ordered that
Speaker 1: because I'm your boys hungry. You just put that. We
Speaker 1: had a podcast to do now. But I will say,
Speaker 1: like every single time, even if we're split together or
Speaker 1: we're just playing a game like it's risk like we
Speaker 1: do for whatever reason, never want the other one to win.
Speaker 1: That's true. It's not about winning most of the time.
Speaker 1: It's about making sure the other individual doesn't win. And
Speaker 1: that's something that we should probably unpack some day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, because this softball game, like I'm fired
Speaker 3: up about who I have on my team and everything else,
Speaker 3: but ultimately, like the little the little voice.
Speaker 1: In the back of my mind is like, stack this
Speaker 1: deb Yeah, why it's your Why I'm more worried about
Speaker 1: just playing well. I haven't swung a bat in over
Speaker 1: half a decade.
Speaker 3: I was surprised because I was trying to fill you
Speaker 3: out for some shit talking the other day when I
Speaker 3: was just letting you know we're gonna mercy rule, and
Speaker 3: then I sent you the video of the diving catch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, which was way impressive. Even when I saw that,
Speaker 1: I go, damn, he was Will might actually have it
Speaker 1: really known. I'm like, ah, he's not. I gotta get
Speaker 1: out there. I'm glad we're going a few hours early.
Speaker 1: I know you went there a couple couple of years
Speaker 1: ago and you kind of just showed up and played.
Speaker 1: Good on you. By the way, those young healthy me.
Speaker 3: A little torn hamstring JP and yeah yeah BPC one
Speaker 3: fifty seven, BC one.
Speaker 1: Fifty seven got me right in seven days. You get that.
Speaker 1: Like I, I just don't know what to expect out
Speaker 1: of myself, So I don't want to go in there
Speaker 1: and talk a big game. But I will say if
Speaker 1: I'm feeling it, I'm going yard and I I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say this now because this won't be airing till tomorrow.
Speaker 1: I might bunt my first at bat and try to
Speaker 1: run it out to first, just to see how the
Speaker 1: how the wheels are feeling, just how the wheels are feeling.
Speaker 1: I haven't really ran at all.
Speaker 3: The scariest part about playing soft, especially when you haven't
Speaker 3: played in a while, is if you miss your first and.
Speaker 1: Then the oh, well, the boys. You makes your first
Speaker 1: swing like it's tough because you're just getting that soft toss, dude, yeah,
Speaker 1: and that thing's just up in the air. What was
Speaker 1: that Rookie of the year when that kid, the big
Speaker 1: fucking burly guy and the kid loses his powers and
Speaker 1: he has a soft toss it to the guy. I
Speaker 1: don't think is that Rookie of the year. Is that
Speaker 1: where he like major No, it's not. Where he falls
Speaker 1: on his elbow and also yours, Yeah, like in the
Speaker 1: World Series or something, and he can't do anything but
Speaker 1: soft toss and the guy's like grunting at the ball
Speaker 1: and misses anyway.
Speaker 3: What a fucking movie, by the way, Like you hurt
Speaker 3: your elbow and you just get the toss it like
Speaker 3: one hundred and.
Speaker 1: Also just fucking rips pull. Can I see the roster?
Speaker 1: I need to see who my teammates are.
Speaker 4: The release online, I'm looking for it.
Speaker 1: It was on where you can swipe. Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: on Instagram. I saw Jelly Roll as my partner. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing that really is the captain team Jelly Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know why I said partner, teammate, captain, my
Speaker 1: fearless captain, which is great and I love Jelly but
Speaker 1: the situation we're going into the hot street right now.
Speaker 1: We gotta we gotta blow out that fire and I will.
Speaker 1: And also to that scares me as Riley Green being
Speaker 1: on your team, the way he was talking like this
Speaker 1: man doesn't even do ping pong. Yeah, he's man. Fuck
Speaker 1: that ship. I want to play against somebody who's athletic
Speaker 1: and do it.

Speaker 1: I don't know. Did you see the spinning backfist I
Speaker 1: put on him this weekend? Yeah, you would have slept him.

Speaker 1: what they bought it for, which was not overwhelmingly expensive,
Speaker 1: and they sold her for like double or triple, like
Speaker 1: two years ago. Sure. Yeah, it definitely seems like a

Speaker 3: Yeah, but all in all, it was an incredible time.
Speaker 3: We were there for five days. My shout out to
Speaker 3: that was having a TV in the room. It was
Speaker 3: not having a TV in our room. Yeah, like going in,
Speaker 3: laying in bed and just watching TV and watching movies
Speaker 3: because we don't have a TV in the room. So
Speaker 3: your house nice, Yeah, yeah, we don't have one. When
Speaker 3: we get in the room, it's it's time for it's
Speaker 3: time to get naughty and it's time for sleep.

Speaker 1: go to sleep fast. You know what I'm saying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the boy, Yeah, you get naughty faster. Which what do
Speaker 1: you do faster? Yeah, it just depends.
Speaker 3: If I got to ask the question and she's about it,

Speaker 3: like we talk more. She likes to pillow talk a
Speaker 3: little bit. I'm like, sweet Art, let's let's get the
Speaker 3: tunes on.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The pillow talk to me is always like when
Speaker 1: I'm like laying in bed. I don't know if Charlie
Speaker 1: does this, but Taylor will just go and like put
Speaker 1: her pajamas on whatever and then lay in bed and
Speaker 1: then an hour later go Bush, what you can get
Speaker 1: ready for bed? I'm like, why wouldn't you just get
Speaker 1: ready for bed right now? Yeah? I don't understand it.
Speaker 1: It's ready first.
Speaker 3: But it always seems like when she wants to hit
Speaker 3: the pillow, like that's the time to talk about everything
Speaker 3: going on.
Speaker 1: Dude, I was thinking, can we not handle this?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: And then they get upset and you're like, you we
Speaker 1: have an hour ago, Yeah, we were gonna done whatever.
Speaker 1: We were just chilling Binge and Netflix and stuff like
Speaker 1: about Their Wives episode of two, and.
Speaker 3: I'm sitting there on my hey sweetheart, like something to
Speaker 3: get some shut eye. This this is a conversation.
Speaker 1: This is like, uh, you're not like filling me in
Speaker 1: on something like this is you want me to be
Speaker 1: receptive and contribute, Like think about it and have a
Speaker 1: response that contributes to the conversation. Yeah, it's tough because
Speaker 1: at first I'll kind of like shorter answers. Maybe they'll
Speaker 1: pick it up, give them the hint. Yeah, yeah, hey,
Speaker 1: and you kind of took your head and like yeah,
Speaker 1: it can beat a little louder or whatever. What happens.
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, are you not into this conversation.
Speaker 1: You're like no, I am, And You're like, damn, I

Speaker 3: give me a kiss good night. Damn, once you put
Speaker 3: the tape on, there any nothing you can do.
Speaker 1: When I first started doing the mouth tape thing, I
Speaker 1: literally went through like I would open a little pack
Speaker 1: of that. I'm not gonna say the tape was no
Speaker 1: free shout outs, but I'd hard to put the tape
Speaker 1: on and you say something like pull it off and
Speaker 1: they would lose its stick and I'd like get a
Speaker 1: new one.
Speaker 3: And then You're like, damn, bro, Yeah, but I gotta
Speaker 3: be okay that little thing you just right there, that
Speaker 3: that that's a fucking you're asking for it.
Speaker 1: You're asking to catch some fucking hands with that little yeah,
Speaker 1: that little gesture. But yeah, yeah, But anyway, but in
Speaker 1: the room, TV in the room. Then we got back,
Speaker 1: went out to get a couple of nights. We had

Speaker 1: we could find a five W somewhere along. Yeah, well
Speaker 1: it wins, Yeah, maybe you know what I mean. I
Speaker 1: really just go off of what I've done with Dana,
Speaker 1: and then the one night that we got hammered like that.
Speaker 1: One night we got hammered before I got drunk and
Speaker 1: I just started putting chips down and it ended up
Speaker 1: working out. I probably would have well started losing, but
Speaker 1: JP's and going stop stopause I was up bigger and
Speaker 1: then I lost to gouple of hands like but like
Speaker 1: that's the tone. But yeah, did we? Uh how wasna?

Speaker 1: Kids were all about it. We were catching frogs, we
Speaker 1: were fishing, we were we were ripping around. Kids love
Speaker 1: those damn goats too. But we went. We end up
Speaker 1: going to NAPA. When I was packing for Naple, I
Speaker 1: thought I literally brought my computer. I was like, I
Speaker 1: have five hundred emos. Maybe I'll get some work done,
Speaker 1: maybe i'll Docause when we were on the phone, you
Speaker 1: weren't the most excited. I was, it's it's nice. It

Speaker 1: wine guy, and I get weird about up. But he
Speaker 1: stuff like that, Yeah, yeah, I know, let's take And
Speaker 1: I'm starting to realize that's my problem. I like it,
Speaker 1: but then also those other things I'm like totally against.
Speaker 1: It's very weird. If you go back to like who
Speaker 1: do you want to party with? Like the tear talk
Speaker 1: we did, I dropped three names. Are like it would
Speaker 1: be a country club esque party, but now but I
Speaker 1: talk about country clubs, I don't like it. Anyway, we
Speaker 1: go to NAPA. It's awesome. The Chandlers. We went with them,
Speaker 1: and they had like they knew a bunch of people,
Speaker 1: they knew where to go. And this is the guy
Speaker 1: who was our driver. Tim was awesome. He was telling
Speaker 1: pretty bad jokes, but he was a good vibe. So
Speaker 1: we were enjoying it sometimes. Yeah, and so we hit
Speaker 1: like two little wineries. In the beginning, wines couldn't tell
Speaker 1: the difference between any of them. I could not tell
Speaker 1: one fucking different. They would ask you, what do you
Speaker 1: see here? And I would just do the kind of
Speaker 1: the same thing we did with that smelling test we
Speaker 1: did a while back. You were hitting the they were like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's very I was like, I'm kind of just shoot
Speaker 1: from the hip here because I have really had no idea.
Speaker 1: And then the next day everyone's like, hey, how many
Speaker 1: wineries are hitting tomorrow. We're like four, Like, oh, don't
Speaker 1: do four, that's way too many. We're like, we're gonna
Speaker 1: do four. We'll be fine, We'll be fine. Who said
Speaker 1: don't do for the everybody? We told the people in Napa,
Speaker 1: the people of Napa. Yeah, and so we the next day,
Speaker 1: sure enough, we start like ten am. We go to
Speaker 1: the first one. Get a little cooked because Mike knew
Speaker 1: this guy Tom. He was porn. We were reve ing.
Speaker 1: That's the word you use when you're in an apple. You
Speaker 1: don't say, hey, can I try this wine again? You
Speaker 1: say hey, can I revisit this? And they just keep
Speaker 1: porn for you. And there's a whole there's a dump cup,
Speaker 1: which I fell in love with the name. You kind
Speaker 1: of spit in there, None of us spit. We're all swallowing.
Speaker 1: We go to the next place, a place called Quintessa.
Speaker 1: That's the only place I found a wine that I thought, Okay,
Speaker 1: this wine kind of fucks. I messed with this red red.
Speaker 1: I did enjoy white though, but it was a twenty
Speaker 1: eleven Quintesta. For those of you who are wondering, and
Speaker 1: we're drinking, and then we're buying wine I'm thinking, as
Speaker 1: even if I'm buying the wine, I'm never gonna drink this,
Speaker 1: but I'm drunk, so I'm like, yeah, we need this
Speaker 1: wine at the house, so we buy that wine. The
Speaker 1: third one, we get to this the the tailers know
Speaker 1: them as well, and there's like there's a picture that
Speaker 1: they have. It's like a table in this giant wine
Speaker 1: barrel and there's wine glasses everywhere, like they just kept
Speaker 1: pouring like full glasses of wine. And that's where rumblings
Speaker 1: of Vegas happened. I'll tell you what the wine drinking is.
Speaker 1: It's a vibe, dude. Like, So it's fun. Those beautiful
Speaker 1: environments out there in Napa. Napa is incredible, Like the
Speaker 1: weather is incredible. The people are so kind and nice.
Speaker 1: And when they educate you, when they ed you, ed
Speaker 1: educate you, educate you. You had it.
Speaker 3: Educate you about the wine, talk about the climate and
Speaker 3: where it's different from over across the across the pond,
Speaker 3: and why it's different from.
Speaker 1: Valley wine with the mountain wine. Because the rapes do this,
Speaker 1: you see the passion that these people have and you're like,
Speaker 1: fuck man, that's amazing. What a I wish I could
Speaker 1: be like, Yeah, I wanted to love wine so much
Speaker 1: more because I was around their passion and the environment
Speaker 1: was insane. It was. It was incredible, But we ended
Speaker 1: up getting hammer drunk. I threw up all over this
Speaker 1: restaurant's toilet. It got to the toilet though, but not
Speaker 1: a lot of it got in the toilet. And we
Speaker 1: ended up booking a flight for Vegas the next day
Speaker 1: and we went to Vegas for twenty three hours. So
Speaker 1: we flew from Napa to Vegas, went to the UFC.
Speaker 1: How was it fight Vegas fight night? It was awesome.
Speaker 1: It was like we were in the same place at
Speaker 1: Apex spot. They had us like a right in the front.
Speaker 1: It was it was killer dude and these we had
Speaker 1: a bunch of UFC fighters behind us, and we started
Speaker 1: talking to them and they're like now, like during the fight,
Speaker 1: telling us like this is what this guy is thinking.
Speaker 1: They're like educating us, educating us like as they're fighting,
Speaker 1: like this is what he's gonna try to do next,
Speaker 1: And sure as shit, the guy would try to do
Speaker 1: the next that thing he'd say.
Speaker 6: It was.
Speaker 1: It was a really it was fucking awesome, man, it was.
Speaker 1: It was just a really good time. But all that said,
Speaker 1: from the beginning, store like, I thought I was gonna,
Speaker 1: you know, have a nice relaxing weekend, and I essentially
Speaker 1: went on a three day bender. Essentially went on a
Speaker 1: three day bender, got home last night, watched Pirates of
Speaker 1: the Caribbean and fell asleep.
Speaker 3: Did you get like you and the boys did in

Speaker 1: We uh did some day drinking and played Chandelier in
Speaker 1: the room. Great game. It was awesome. We hit like
Speaker 1: four or five of those games the boys wanted to.
Speaker 1: We went down to the table as we were playing
Speaker 1: for a while, and then I got banked for like
Speaker 1: five thousand. And then we went to the UFC and
Speaker 1: I texted. I told Dana and I I lost five.
Speaker 1: He goes, don't gamble anymore. He went to dinner with Kabete.
Speaker 1: So he was at dinner at that tie spot. No, No,
Speaker 1: he's no ways coming back. He says, like two o
Speaker 1: five right now though, like dudes fucking like that. He says,
Speaker 1: no ways coming back. That's the first thing I asked him.
Speaker 1: I was like, what do we think he's coming back?
Speaker 1: He goes he's not coming back. Bebe is not coming
Speaker 1: back to the un I don't even know if I
Speaker 1: should I should see it, but they did at dinner
Speaker 1: and he came back. I literally waited for dat until
Speaker 1: like eleven thirty, like on the everyone's gambling. I'm kind
Speaker 1: of watching him fun. Taylor was fucking killing him, like
Speaker 1: out there and making money. You're talking, they're playing car
Speaker 1: This is me just doing a hanchester for guys around
Speaker 1: the twenty one killing him dude, Yeah, but uh everything.
Speaker 1: He came in and it was like legit, ten minutes.
Speaker 1: Did Mike gamble? Mike did. Mike didn't gamble like that,
Speaker 1: but Mike did gamble. I think he won, like five
Speaker 1: six thousand won that he won that he won that.
Speaker 1: I know he's in the gutter last year. He got
Speaker 1: in the gutter last time. But Kyle from the Note Boys,
Speaker 1: he was there. He was down forty and then they
Speaker 1: were doing like a they were really working. They went
Speaker 1: to hawkasancause it was one of his boys birthday birthdays.
Speaker 1: So he left like ten minutes before Dana got there.

Speaker 1: Kyle hit it and he's like, hey, I'm down forty.
Speaker 1: We got a figure, and it's like, oh, we'll get

Speaker 1: I had a dream that I had a redemption. It
Speaker 1: was we all was on a plane, a giant plane,
Speaker 1: and there was like I had a bar there and
Speaker 1: I went up to him and I literally go do
Speaker 1: to talk about it, and then we had banter back
Speaker 1: and forth. Then the plane crashed. We were on the
Speaker 1: We were on a plane and it like didn't make
Speaker 1: it off the runway, but it was in a weird
Speaker 1: way where like there were these things we had to
Speaker 1: go up before and end up going down where everyone
Speaker 1: was fine. And I really didn't I didn't, ye, but
Speaker 1: I did have a dream about Vince Bond last night
Speaker 1: and we I don't know if we fully worked it out,
Speaker 1: but there was a lot more banster, a lot more
Speaker 1: what I would have wanted in the situation. But he
Speaker 1: was kind of giving me a heat in the dream
Speaker 1: or whatever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but so you guys aren't you guys aren't back yet.
Speaker 1: No, Yeah, I was a dream. Yeah, so it's nice
Speaker 1: to know that there was light at the end. There
Speaker 1: would have been. Yeah, but I need that redemption.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I bust and posted something and said, don't meet
Speaker 1: your heroes. I'm not ready to say that. I'm not
Speaker 1: ready to because at the end of the day, it
Speaker 1: was his boys. Yeah, this is boys looking out for
Speaker 1: him in that moment. Yeah, I guess maybe they fucked
Speaker 1: him over, could have had a best friend. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe yeah, but it says that for a better story
Speaker 1: down the road. But I watched the breakup on the flight,
Speaker 1: but that probably would sad. I didn't like the ending,
Speaker 1: but anyway, Yeah, it's like you like it, but you
Speaker 1: want it. You're rooting for it. Yeah, you're rooting for it.

Speaker 8: Well I used to run around with some some fellas that,
Speaker 8: uh they ride motorcycles and they're well known, and I
Speaker 8: guess I was considered an affiliate.
Speaker 1: Is it like the opposite of Heavan's Stevens kind of
Speaker 1: something like that?
Speaker 3: Are we talking Sons of Anarchy type stuff. Do you
Speaker 3: ever like the real ones? So, yeah, I had to
Speaker 3: walk the little red line and they dumped my bag out.
Speaker 3: It was it was a whole story, but it ended
Speaker 3: up getting out and going to play the show. I
Speaker 3: just had to leave by nine o'clock next morning, so
Speaker 3: which ordered the jet and so the show was over.
Speaker 1: It was out of their states.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to go back when you were talking
Speaker 3: about you talked about being an electric alcohol but I
Speaker 3: was reading an article about you when you made your
Speaker 3: shift in your career and in your life, about being
Speaker 3: a functioning alcoholic, and you had a number one hit
Speaker 3: going on at the time, and I want to say
Speaker 3: you were maybe a band maid or a friend or somebody.
Speaker 3: You were sitting back with somebody and kind of talking about,
Speaker 3: you know, wanting to make a transition and realizing like
Speaker 3: I'm supposed to be celebrating this, and you were in
Speaker 3: your own head.
Speaker 1: Can you talk through that? Oh? Yeah, man? So I
Speaker 1: mean it was when Country our first.
Speaker 8: Number one went, Uh, the night it went number one,
Speaker 8: we were on tour, and of course we did a
Speaker 8: little celebration for it, and uh, in the middle of it,
Speaker 8: I kind of walked back to the bus for whatever reason,
Speaker 8: by myself, and I got in the back lounge and
Speaker 8: I just went into this little train of thought. It
Speaker 8: was kind of what's what's the There was a philosopher
Speaker 8: at some point that said the majority of man struggles
Speaker 8: come from his inability to sit in the quiet room alone.
Speaker 8: And for whatever reason, I felt like I needed a
Speaker 8: quiet room alone that night for a minute. And uh,
Speaker 8: remember I remember sitting on the back of the bus
Speaker 8: being like, I mean, this is really cool, but I'm
Speaker 8: not really celebrating anything because we did the same shit
Speaker 8: last night and the night before and the night before
Speaker 8: for months years, you know. So it was like I
Speaker 8: knew there were some things in life it needed to change.
Speaker 8: And I was just like, man, I'm not the things
Speaker 8: that I was raised to prioritize and in in you know,
Speaker 8: value in life, and just so far from the life
Speaker 8: I was living. And and uh, it's like kind of
Speaker 8: like just knowing I was kind of at an m past.
Speaker 8: There's some medical stuff going on too, but I was
Speaker 8: I was losing the battle with addiction. Man, it was
Speaker 8: it was kicking my teeth in and uh, but if
Speaker 8: you didn't know me, well you wouldn't know I was.
Speaker 8: I was, you know, tore up. It was I had
Speaker 8: my cruise and altitude and highly functioned. It wasn't working
Speaker 8: for it.
Speaker 1: It was life. But it was like, you know, I
Speaker 1: never stopped.
Speaker 8: And but I remember sitting back there and I called
Speaker 8: my meager. I was like, hey, man, I need to
Speaker 8: find some time and just go in and get medically
Speaker 8: detox so I don't have a seizure or something.
Speaker 1: When anything happened in the moment that made you feel
Speaker 1: like you were getting close to them like that.
Speaker 8: Oh well, had like pancreatitis, My liver and kidneys were
Speaker 8: starting to you know, throw me a little bit of trouble.
Speaker 8: And my health was kind of in decline. I was
Speaker 8: only twenty four five. It was just kind of not
Speaker 8: sleeping partying from Thomstun came up until it went down,
Speaker 8: and then maybe till it came up again, you know,
Speaker 8: on a on a repetitive basis. And it was just like, man,
Speaker 8: people worked their entire there are half their lives right
Speaker 8: trying to get a number one on country radio. Some
Speaker 8: some of them never most of them never get a song,
Speaker 8: you know, on the radio at all. And here we
Speaker 8: are like I felt like I was kind of being
Speaker 8: disrespectful to those people and all the guys around me
Speaker 8: by you know, when we're supposed to be celebrating something,
Speaker 8: we're just doing the same shit we did last night.
Speaker 8: It was just Kate the night that says number one
Speaker 8: on it. That's the only difference. And I got my
Speaker 8: second number one in rehab night sitting in some smoking
Speaker 8: ports from my buddy Daryl. Yeah, and Darryl. I was
Speaker 8: there wherever you're at, buddy, good looking out. But yeah, man,
Speaker 8: it was uh the best decision I ever made. It's
Speaker 8: a it's a whole new life. And I don't use
Speaker 8: the word sober because I have a lot of respect
Speaker 8: for the sobriety community and the recovery community. And I'm
Speaker 8: not that I'm California sober. I mean, smoke, smoke, you enjoyed,
Speaker 8: You enjoyed some vitamins? Yeah, I I brought some with me.
Speaker 8: I didn't know if I'll smoked or not. But these
Speaker 8: little things are magic, They're they're jeters. We so just
Speaker 8: so y'all know. We we rode the bus up to
Speaker 8: the nearest legal Michigan. So what's the Michigan Michigan Florida legal.
Speaker 8: We're in a legal state right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah. We we are in Michigan. We're in Michigan. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're in Arbor, Michigan right now. Yeah, got it, Go blue,
Speaker 1: get some go blue on that. What's such an interesting
Speaker 1: time for you to have an epiphany? First number one,
Speaker 1: and for you to go sit in a room and
Speaker 1: be like, Okay, this is not the way I want
Speaker 1: to live my life. You would you would think it'd
Speaker 1: be the opposite, Like you'd sit there and be like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, I'm doing everything right right now, like we
Speaker 1: gotta we got to ride this hard and get put
Speaker 1: away wet. Absolutely, So is there like like what was
Speaker 1: the process for you in that situation? We're like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is not this is not it Like what does
Speaker 1: anything specific happen that night? Or is it just the
Speaker 1: redundancy of everything that's been going on and realizing like
Speaker 1: you want to keep a dream alive?
Speaker 6: It was?
Speaker 8: It was it was kind of an epiphany moment right
Speaker 8: where it was where it was kind of a moment's surrender. Two,
Speaker 8: It's like me and God at that point like I'm
Speaker 8: a I know I taught rough and I'm definitely I'm
Speaker 8: a rougher, dude, but my face is really important to me, man.
Speaker 8: And uh, as far as I got away from God,
Speaker 8: I don't feel like he ever ever let go of me.
Speaker 8: So even in times like that, like even in the
Speaker 8: fucked up way I used to talk to him, it
Speaker 8: was like I was talking one of my buddies, you know.
Speaker 8: But it's kind of a conversation between him and me,
Speaker 8: and I think addicts just most of us.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 8: We you know they say it takes like a traumatizing
Speaker 8: life changing event to get a lot of our attentions.
Speaker 8: Well that had happened time and time again. And I
Speaker 8: had been, you know, court ordered to go to treatment
Speaker 8: a couple of times, uh, for lesser charges. And I'm
Speaker 8: letting y'all know a lot today.
Speaker 1: By the way, I didn't know it ain't got it
Speaker 1: how we came to we'll get to the last We'll
Speaker 1: get to the laft. Okay, we'll we'll get to the lafe.
Speaker 8: But uh, but yeah, man, it was like, you know,
Speaker 8: we have this this thing where, you know, in times
Speaker 8: of crisis or I think a lot of times it's
Speaker 8: a crush too, Like if we get in a lot
Speaker 8: of trouble, you know, Oh, I'm gonna sober up. I'm
Speaker 8: going to change my life, you know, or for my mom.
Speaker 8: And my mom at one point, just the age twenty
Speaker 8: years in a year, I had a lot of stuff
Speaker 8: going on and I was just stressing her out, but
Speaker 8: you know, you want to make that change for her.
Speaker 8: But that night, what was different, and I knew it
Speaker 8: was different, was like, man, this is a moment of
Speaker 8: clarity amongst all the KOs and mayhem in my life.
Speaker 8: And like it was the time that like God was like, hey, man,
Speaker 8: and now I've got your attention. For whatever reason, he
Speaker 8: had my attention that night, and it was just like, man,
Speaker 8: if i make a decision to change now, when I'm
Speaker 8: not in crisis, like when I'm not at the end
Speaker 8: of my rope, when I'm not you know, suicidal or this,
Speaker 8: that and the other, Like I'm making a conscious decision
Speaker 8: to change my life, and it's on my terms. I'm
Speaker 8: such a maniac when it comes to that. It's like,
Speaker 8: I have a bar in the dog house, is what?
Speaker 8: Because the seventy five are hunter square foot man cave.
Speaker 8: It's got all my shit in his.
Speaker 1: Where the doghouse douse.
Speaker 8: So I've got a bar in that and people ask
Speaker 8: me like, dude, if you don't drink while you have
Speaker 8: a bar, and dude, because I like winning every time
Speaker 8: I walk by that tummer bitch, every time I go
Speaker 8: behind the bar and pour somebody to drink, like I
Speaker 8: get to whip its ass, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8: And it's uh, it kind of turned into that thing
Speaker 8: for me. I never tell people I can't drink.
Speaker 1: I can.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I could probably drink half his bus under the
Speaker 8: table if we went back there, But I made the
Speaker 8: decision not.
Speaker 1: Guid it like that. Dude.
Speaker 8: I don't think it'd take long. I mean, my worst dude.
Speaker 8: I carried around the laptop bag.
Speaker 1: A little rusty. Oh I'm rusty, but we sho be
Speaker 1: like old Frank the tank and old.
Speaker 8: On the don't let it fool you about what's inside.
Speaker 8: But I drank with my heart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, my heart drink like you mean it?
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I mean. It was, uh, it was. It
Speaker 8: was definitely a lot of changing. Thing was crazy. I
Speaker 8: went in Keith Urban showed up when I was in
Speaker 8: there just on a whim one day, and I've told
Speaker 8: this story bunch, but and he sat down and had
Speaker 8: a conversation with me and I don't know if I'd
Speaker 8: be playing music right now had it not been for
Speaker 8: that conversation with that man.
Speaker 1: So that was pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 8: And then the day I got out, my record label president,
Speaker 8: my manager picked me up at three half Facility and
Speaker 8: took me straight to the tour bus and I went
Speaker 8: out on the Eric Church Blood Sweating Beer's tour in
Speaker 8: twenty twelve.
Speaker 1: No shit, yeah, man, I was the devil right next
Speaker 1: to you the whole time.
Speaker 8: Bro If y'all only understood, like, I've been uncomfortable on
Speaker 8: stage every times of my life, but then I literally
Speaker 8: fell out of my skin. I felt like I was
Speaker 8: button naked up there in front of thousands of people
Speaker 8: every night. And the good thing was the conversation with Keith.
Speaker 8: He was like he told me that. He was like,
Speaker 8: You're gonna feel like you're out of your skin up there.
Speaker 1: He said.
Speaker 8: It's never gonna be what it was, he said, but
Speaker 8: it will be better. You have more control over once
Speaker 8: you're saying just the show itself and how you're communicating
Speaker 8: with people, and it made made all the sense in
Speaker 8: the world, and it eventually got there. But yeah, that
Speaker 8: whole tour did. I was like, I felt like I
Speaker 8: was button naked up there holding the guitar.
Speaker 1: When did it start to feel more comfortable?
Speaker 8: I don't remember. I said it was such a like
Speaker 8: it was a battle. Yeah, for a long time. And
Speaker 8: I'm not necessarily one. I'm not really a real scary dude,
Speaker 8: you know what I mean. Like snakes, sharks and commitment
Speaker 8: are legitimate, but anything outside of that, like, I don't
Speaker 8: worry about too much.
Speaker 1: I'm with you.
Speaker 8: At first, snake scared my number one note ropes. You know,
Speaker 8: there's no the devil got one chance to come to earth,
Speaker 8: you know what I'm saying, And that's what he picked
Speaker 8: becomes as that's all the.

Speaker 1: They thought the snake was sick as it wasn't eating,
Speaker 1: and they took it to the vet, and the vet's

Speaker 1: about your shower game four minutes. Here's a fact.
Speaker 3: The body wash you're using right now is weak, watered down,
Speaker 3: and probably smells like shit like a JV locker room
Speaker 3: for example. Simply put, it's not getting the job done.
Speaker 8: The boys need a shower of substance after hard day's work,
Speaker 8: and that's why we use thick, have us on purpose,
Speaker 8: high viscosity, high viscosity body wash from Duke Cannon.
Speaker 1: Thicker is better my voice.
Speaker 3: Body wash is built to work hard and not spew
Speaker 3: down the shower dream.
Speaker 8: All their sense are amazing, But my personal favorite is
Speaker 8: Midnight Swim. It smells like a cannon ball into a
Speaker 8: moonlit lake, not a dip in the hot tub at
Speaker 8: the Starlight Motel.
Speaker 1: You could do, Yeah to do cannon this person, actually
Speaker 1: what I use some really yes? Yeah, but hey you

Speaker 1: I just didn't want to go, but I forgot, I
Speaker 1: forgot my train of thought.
Speaker 8: That's okay, that's where to go today. Hey you were
Speaker 8: from You're from Jefferson, Georgia. I was supposed to say,
Speaker 8: I've had this on calendar for a minute. Yeah alone,
Speaker 8: But now man, you got that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, boys, I got a roll. Are you from Jefferson? Yes?
Speaker 1: Are you boys with the Cory Smith? Yeah? Are the police?
Speaker 1: Are the police really that we're that corrupt? So that's crazy.
Speaker 8: So the night that happened, there was a roadblock in
Speaker 8: town and that you were within that night? Oh before Yeah,
Speaker 8: we played the show it Mike's I think and shut
Speaker 8: of course Smith again, Man, I.
Speaker 1: Know you saw your tweeted the boys said, he come
Speaker 1: on man, so dude.
Speaker 8: That was basically before I met at Corey. The way
Speaker 8: I met Corey. Corey will always be one of my
Speaker 8: main influences as a songwriter because he put out that
Speaker 8: uh that that first record and it was, man, it
Speaker 8: was all about where we grew up, right, it was.
Speaker 8: And it showed me that well, Skinner showed me. And
Speaker 8: then he doubled down the fact that it's cool to
Speaker 8: write about home, you know what I mean? And uh,
Speaker 8: that made a huge difference in my writing. But it
Speaker 8: was also one of them that was extremely independent and
Speaker 8: everything he did like he's able to quit teaching and
Speaker 8: go full time music. And when he did that, I
Speaker 8: was like, there's a possibility that I could do this
Speaker 8: for a living not have to go work on a
Speaker 8: blow truck, you know, insulation truck. But yeah, I was
Speaker 8: in I was torn around, not touring. I was playing
Speaker 8: around with this little cover band motorcycle clubhouses like the
Speaker 8: worst vfws you've ever seen, Like we're fighting every night.
Speaker 1: Probably a reason why you might have been affiliated going
Speaker 1: into Canada. Maybe, Yeah, that probably played into her figure
Speaker 1: out the backstory for a lot of things. Yeah, but uh,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I met Corey.
Speaker 8: So they opened a bar in my hometown was we'd
Speaker 8: been Dry County forever in Jefferson. It was called Mike's
Speaker 8: down Under and God bless Mike. I miss him. The
Speaker 8: first night had opened, I was with a dude. It
Speaker 8: was a lot older than me. We were riding around
Speaker 8: on dirt rose drinking and he goes, hey, man, you
Speaker 8: want to check out that new bar in Jefferson. Here
Speaker 8: I am, I'm like sixteen or seventeen years old.
Speaker 1: Sure.
Speaker 8: I had told my parents that I was out of
Speaker 8: town playing praise and worship music at some convention called
Speaker 8: winter Blasts or something in Gatlinburg. Meanwhile, the bar is
Speaker 8: literally like if there were no trees, you could see
Speaker 8: it from my house. So we walked in and I
Speaker 8: brought my own beer because I knew I was too
Speaker 8: young for him to sell it to me. There you
Speaker 8: know this is the logical thing. Yeah, they did like that.
Speaker 8: So I got in and a guy came up to
Speaker 8: him was like, hey, uh, how old are you need
Speaker 8: to see somebody d and I was like, well, I
Speaker 8: don't have one that says I'm old.
Speaker 1: Enough.
Speaker 8: So he said, I need you to finish that that
Speaker 8: or I need you to get rid of that beer.
Speaker 8: I said, yes, sir, I went to chug it and
Speaker 8: they went to take him outside, and uh, I said, on.
Speaker 1: The way out the door and they went to take
Speaker 1: me out. Yeah, he's got that. He's got that accent.
Speaker 1: You got that ud got the accent? Yeah, they got
Speaker 1: after it pretty good.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I knew where I was headed, you know, best of intentions,
Speaker 8: But this is this dude singing and his voice was incredible,
Speaker 8: and I recognized it and recognized a couple of songs,
Speaker 8: but I wann't to bother the dude, you know. And
Speaker 8: on the way out the door, he goes, hey, man,
Speaker 8: hey are you Are you happen to be Brentley York?
Speaker 8: And I was like yeah, and he said, man, everybody here,
Speaker 8: this is just super early on core. He was, everybody here,
Speaker 8: These all my friends and family. Man, they've heard everything.
Speaker 8: I've got a couple of times he knew I had
Speaker 8: a little five song.
Speaker 1: He pee out.
Speaker 8: He's like, you want to play a couple if he
Speaker 8: keeps me from getting my ass kicked out of here?
Speaker 8: Hell yeah, I played men as you want, you know,
Speaker 8: so yeah, that was That was the beginning of the
Speaker 8: Cory Smith chapter. And after that that I toured college
Speaker 8: markets with him for several years and uh, and we
Speaker 8: had we had a blast. I have as much respect
Speaker 8: was humanly possible in the world for that dude.
Speaker 1: I think the world of Corey. Let's get back to
Speaker 1: those police though, what they got that song Fuck the Police?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So there was this dude named Vic Green.
Speaker 8: It was a dick, and he kind of Corey wasn't
Speaker 8: really in the mood to be fucked with that night,
Speaker 8: I think, and and those guys kind of were a
Speaker 8: little rough on him. I know, one of the guys,
Speaker 8: he's not all that bad, but that night, they they
Speaker 8: didn't do right by Cory. He was he was not
Speaker 8: in a great mood, and I don't think they were either.
Speaker 8: And you know, then the fuck the Po Po song
Speaker 8: came out and it was like it he started award.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. They mainly just played the live version, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: the live the live version of Spotify. But I heard
Speaker 1: it as at his concerts. Now, when they play that song,
Speaker 1: they'll turn to the security and give them the finger. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's how the crowd will turn around and fucking get
Speaker 1: the police the bird.
Speaker 8: It was a whole thing. Yeah, it was like it
Speaker 8: was news in our hometown and everything else. And Buddy,
Speaker 8: every time he played Athens, Jefferson or anywhere else, he
Speaker 8: told that story.
Speaker 1: But yeah, one of the guy's names was Vic Green,
Speaker 1: and I want to say big doing now so he
Speaker 1: got fired. Yeah, I don't know what Vic's up to. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he said in that live version that they're
Speaker 1: now gone. They used to be notoriously corrupt. Vic was
Speaker 1: one of those dudes.
Speaker 8: Man, We're in a small town at Jefferson right where
Speaker 8: I graduated, with sixty six people, and this is before
Speaker 8: I graduated. There's nobody there. He's like one of the
Speaker 8: cops that belonged in like New York City. You know
Speaker 8: what I'm saying, like straight about business, like showing up
Speaker 8: in tactical gears stuff.
Speaker 1: But I feel like.
Speaker 3: All small towns have one of them, one of the
Speaker 3: one that job so serious they ain't nothing to do
Speaker 3: in the small towns like.
Speaker 1: You, it's his most powerful ever, have it his order?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what happened. Yeah, that's the
Speaker 1: entirety of the situation. So wherever Vic's at he has
Speaker 1: found an extremely dangerous job that is filling that violent
Speaker 1: gap in his soul.
Speaker 3: Violent his soul. Did you know, Brainley says, Uh, he
Speaker 3: calls it a warsher. Yeah, there's no question warsher and dryer,
Speaker 3: wash washer, why it is? He was definitely a book
Speaker 3: by its cover. Well, yeah, yeah, I agree with you.
Speaker 1: I agree with you washer, Yeah, get washed up. Yeah.
Speaker 1: We were talking to Riley Green about Corey smith Man
Speaker 1: and it's so peculiar, how like counchry music works because
Speaker 1: it seems like some guys like Corey seems like it's
Speaker 1: all the talent in the world, but he's never done
Speaker 1: like the stadiums and all that, Like why do you
Speaker 1: think you are able to make it? And some of
Speaker 1: these guys aren't. You're obviously whatn't What.
Speaker 3: Wasn't Riley saying that was kind of intentional, like he
Speaker 3: kind of kept.
Speaker 1: It that on camera.
Speaker 8: Yeah, podcast is And yeah, I don't I don't feel
Speaker 8: too people talking for Corey, but I can't say this.
Speaker 8: When I was around him, he really took a lot
Speaker 8: of pride man in being able to be independent and
Speaker 8: independent to his core where he didn't want to label
Speaker 8: telling him what to do. He didn't want to be
Speaker 8: cutting checks to people for this, that and the other,
Speaker 8: you know, for things that he was capable of doing himself.
Speaker 8: And I don't know if there was a moment of
Speaker 8: regret later in his career, but I think all of
Speaker 8: us look back wish we'd have done some things different.
Speaker 8: But I remember there was a time when it was
Speaker 8: like there was a there was kind of a hell
Speaker 8: in Nashville vibe and I loved it, and I was
Speaker 8: on it with him. I didn't want to play this
Speaker 8: town until I could sell out whatever venue I was
Speaker 8: playing in it that was my goal.
Speaker 1: And we did it.
Speaker 8: We you know, it wasn't it wasn't a bridgetone first
Speaker 8: time in, but it was sold out.
Speaker 1: But he wanted to come to this town.
Speaker 8: If he did business in this town, he wanted to
Speaker 8: come up with with leverage.
Speaker 1: And he did that.
Speaker 8: Man, he built something so special. Uh he did it
Speaker 8: by hisself, I mean the limited number of guys around him.
Speaker 8: Corey really did have a vision for what he wanted
Speaker 8: to do and he made it happen.
Speaker 1: And I have so much respect for that. I do
Speaker 1: think there was a time where he was like, man,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 8: Maybe I don't know if it was after as he
Speaker 8: was having kids and stuff. Is maybe I want to
Speaker 8: do got to pursue it a little heavier, and I
Speaker 8: think they brought him to town and he did, like
Speaker 8: try to do twenty one again where they did the
Speaker 8: video for it and and that kind of thing, and
Speaker 8: it just didn't take. Uh for whatever reason. It's broke
Speaker 8: my heart, man, because this dude, I mean, watching his
Speaker 8: process and seeing him right like he wasn't crazy about
Speaker 8: co writing. The majority of the songs y'all have heard
Speaker 8: from Corey or solo written like written in their entirety
Speaker 8: by him, produced by him. It's rare, right, Oh, absolutely, yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 8: he's getting in the cod right now from what I understand,
Speaker 8: and he and I have been trying to get in
Speaker 8: the room for months. We live in the same play
Speaker 8: I still live in Georgia.
Speaker 1: We literally live maybe five six miles from each other.
Speaker 1: No shit, Yeah, it's just tough schedules like that. It is.
Speaker 1: Man seemed like the only the only guy that I
Speaker 1: know that's really done it from uh without signing with anybody,
Speaker 1: who's jolly role like he was so prideful and being independent.
Speaker 1: He's in the last two months. He's doing everything. Man, man,
Speaker 1: old fire, he is crushing it. That's my brother. He
Speaker 1: really is crushing it. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh asking you were talking about everybody kind of looks
Speaker 3: back and kind of has choices they would have made different.
Speaker 1: What about you? What are yours? Oh man?
Speaker 8: So we came in like independent, right, and when we
Speaker 8: came to town, we had a little leverage because we
Speaker 8: were selling out rooms that you know, there were really
Speaker 8: good artists at really good labels that couldn't do the
Speaker 8: numbers we were doing. You know, we came to Tay,
Speaker 8: we had some good leverage and I found a really
Speaker 8: good partnership in Scott Boarshetaw early on in town where
Speaker 8: it was it was more of a partnership than me
Speaker 8: having a boss. So I made a deal real early
Speaker 8: on with myself once I started doing me, he's whatever,
Speaker 8: go have a boss again. I don't handle authority very well.
Speaker 8: Uh it's some statements.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I feel like you like you your energy
Speaker 1: is that no one's really going to tell you what
Speaker 1: to do. Huh.
Speaker 8: Well, I mean they do, but it just doesn't work
Speaker 8: out well because whatever you tell I'm literally the guy.
Speaker 8: Whatever you tell me not to do, I feel like
Speaker 8: there's there's this little damon that lives in me.
Speaker 1: Man. It's like, all right, well, you know we gotta
Speaker 1: do now, right, so I do. Hey, under no circumstance
Speaker 1: do you strike out tonight? No? No, I did tell
Speaker 1: you what to do that, So now you have to
Speaker 1: strike out? Shit, don't I will with one real bad
Speaker 1: I'm a swinging for the fences, brother, like I was them.
Speaker 1: I am trying to go yard every time. I'll tear
Speaker 1: all my ship. I'm trying to get that thing out
Speaker 1: of there. That's awesome. Yeah, I need you to fuck up.
Speaker 1: I need you to fuck up, give a shot. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But yeah, having people tell you what to do, I've
Speaker 1: never been done well with authority, even with football, especially
Speaker 1: like never donet know what coaches and stuff. No, Like
Speaker 1: I've always said coaches I get along with. But the
Speaker 1: minute like it becomes like you have to do this
Speaker 1: or you have to act a certain way. That's for
Speaker 1: me being coachable for like playing never an issue, right,
Speaker 1: but it's like you have to but for the most
Speaker 1: part not an issue. For the most part, if you
Speaker 1: tell me how to act like you, Hey, you need
Speaker 1: to when you do this this press conference, say this
Speaker 1: don't say this, make sure and that always rubbed me
Speaker 1: the wrong way. I was like, man, how I got
Speaker 1: to be? There's only two times in my career that
Speaker 1: I tried to be something I wasn't. It just burned
Speaker 1: down every single time. It's it's an awful feeling.
Speaker 8: Well, if somebody recognizes that, man, I mean, we live
Speaker 8: in a society full of folks that can, you know,
Speaker 8: fit the mode and be a chameleon and whatever I do.
Speaker 8: I just think I have more respect for those that
Speaker 8: are if it's just against the grain, or if it's
Speaker 8: it's just uh, it's the consciousness of a of a
Speaker 8: grown man to be who the fuck you are, not
Speaker 8: anything else, because you are good enough, you know what
Speaker 8: I mean, especially if you're living living your life in
Speaker 8: a way that you're trying to better yourself and the
Speaker 8: people around you're right, all right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you're obviously you have a lot of opinions
Speaker 1: and you wear it like, do you think that hurts
Speaker 1: or helps you in the country music landscape, Oh yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 3: It's a decision where somebody was trying to guide you
Speaker 3: the right direction. You went against it when you were young,
Speaker 3: like try or that was coming yea.
Speaker 8: That was so funny because everybody was like, the irony's
Speaker 8: lost on this guy, right, because he just he slammed
Speaker 8: a bud like and while playing a Queen song, and
Speaker 8: it was like, no, the irony's lost on you motherfuckers
Speaker 8: playing the Queen songs. I love Queen and I love
Speaker 8: that song. And I don't give a ship if the
Speaker 8: guy's gay or not. I love There's plenty of people
Speaker 8: in my life that I love them.
Speaker 1: You know, I have no issues. Yeah, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: gotta try everything twice friendly, Yeah, hell yeah, that my
Speaker 1: kid is awfully close to your face.
Speaker 8: You know, I'm fighting the hut, was fighting nerves just
Speaker 8: now have a hold of it. But but no, it's like,
Speaker 8: now the irony is lost on y'all. My whole thing
Speaker 8: with that was, man, I got a three year old
Speaker 8: to five year old, and and I don't like the
Speaker 8: idea of these big companies pushing a sexual preference or
Speaker 8: jenner preference on the like, promoting something as a brand
Speaker 8: that could possibly affect my children. And when I became
Speaker 8: a dad, man, I've always run with a rough group
Speaker 8: of dudes.
Speaker 1: I've never been wanting to really run.
Speaker 8: Away from sketchy situation. But uh, man, when I when
Speaker 8: I became a dad, I became the most dangerous version
Speaker 8: of myself that I've ever been. I've never loved anything
Speaker 8: like that in my entire life. And I've never felt
Speaker 8: that kind of sense of protective, you know, need to
Speaker 8: be protective, and and uh, it's just something that struck
Speaker 8: a chord with me.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 8: I have no issue with with anybody or what they
Speaker 8: want to be. That's that's their freedom to do so
Speaker 8: and all that. But if it starts to get to
Speaker 8: a point where I feel like it's affecting children, and
Speaker 8: I'm gonna do a little more and stand up.
Speaker 1: Probably which one of your kids is your favorite? Man?
Speaker 8: Honestly, I can always just say this, right, don't say
Speaker 8: don't do the thing one thing.
Speaker 1: I love them all the same. Yeah, great kids, I
Speaker 1: have favorite things about by us. Right, all right, I'll
Speaker 1: take that.
Speaker 3: I'll say this just so you can, you know, speak
Speaker 3: freely like my daughter whatever comes after, Like I'm hoping
Speaker 3: it's a boy, so I can remind him that he's
Speaker 3: not like Cerulli and Rue.
Speaker 1: Is the favorite, right my daughter? I'm sure I wanted
Speaker 1: to also as the difference betweenving a boy and a girl,
Speaker 1: because I just feel like every dude needs to have
Speaker 1: a little girl.
Speaker 8: Everyone, Yeah, I agree with that. I cried when I
Speaker 8: saw the little a little pink balloons come down. I
Speaker 8: was like, yeah, yeah, I got a few years before
Speaker 8: I'm definitely going to prison. But what's bad is I
Speaker 8: think she's probably gonna beat me to prison. She will
Speaker 8: run a criminal organization by kindergarten. You think, so, oh,
Speaker 8: she's a little demon. Not demon, She's just she's just
Speaker 8: like al capone man. The other day, we're getting ready
Speaker 8: for bath time and my wife is walking out of
Speaker 8: the room as she says this, But my daughter is
Speaker 8: sitting on her little rocking chair and she's reading. She
Speaker 8: can't read yet, but she knows all her books by heart.
Speaker 8: So she's just kind of making up her own little
Speaker 8: story as she goes and mixing the real words in
Speaker 8: where she wants to. And Amber said, uh, seys, he
Speaker 8: go getting the it's time for you to get.
Speaker 1: In the bathtub.
Speaker 8: And as Amber walks out, my daughter looks to where
Speaker 8: she was at when she said it and says, no,
Speaker 8: So all right, when we preface this by saying my
Speaker 8: little girl could get away with murder if there ever
Speaker 8: comes a time when she calls me, She's like, Dad.
Speaker 1: You know this old boy had to go, Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: that's take them to the train station. He had to
Speaker 1: find out questions. I asked, I'll bring them, I'll hook
Speaker 1: the back home up to the flatbed. I'll be on
Speaker 1: the way.
Speaker 8: Baby tam well yet, but she she can't do that
Speaker 8: to my wife and I right, So when she said
Speaker 8: that to Amber, I literally I knew it's my responsibility
Speaker 8: as a dad, got to take issue. Right So, I'm
Speaker 8: sitting from bout as far as I am to you guys,
Speaker 8: and I got close enough to where her I'm I'm
Speaker 8: about half the distance with me and you, and I'm
Speaker 8: kind of interface a little bit. And I said, Sissy, no,
Speaker 8: it's not an option for you unless we ask you
Speaker 8: a question. If Mama I ask you a question, you
Speaker 8: could say no if the answer is no, but it
Speaker 8: better be followed by man or sir. I said, as
Speaker 8: far as you know, when we tell you to do something,
Speaker 8: the only answer, the only option you have is yes,
Speaker 8: ma'am or yes sir, and you go do it. This
Speaker 8: is not the way this works, dude, I shit you not.
Speaker 8: She look me, debn my eyes like stone cold gangs.
Speaker 8: Let me demn my eyes. Cocked her head sideways and
Speaker 8: in a whisper voice said, this is out.
Speaker 4: This works.
Speaker 8: Without breaking face. And I looked at her. Oh dude,
Speaker 8: Oh no, no, she's just held the gaze. I'm telling you,
Speaker 8: she is staring me like co killers. So I said three, yeah,
Speaker 8: So I had to shoes tested my yeah to.
Speaker 1: Come back at her, you know what I mean. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And he's getting a little tripping, no doubt, dude.
Speaker 8: So my blush is drained all the way out of
Speaker 8: my body, like I'm seeing why. I'm just like, this
Speaker 8: is happening.
Speaker 1: What do I do?
Speaker 8: And I said, I started to open my mouth to
Speaker 8: say something, and I'm looking at her kind of mean, right, Yeah,
Speaker 8: she goes from this side and as I open my
Speaker 8: mouth to say something, she goes rolls her into the
Speaker 8: other side.
Speaker 1: She goes, it do be like this sometimes. It do
Speaker 1: be like this sometimes. And that was it. So she
Speaker 1: didn't take a bath that night. Her as yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: pops her ass. I mean, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 8: He's five and man, I'm tough on my boy, So
Speaker 8: the difference to me is right, like I want to.
Speaker 8: There's a guy that I paid a lot of attention
Speaker 8: to and follow. His name is John Lovell. He run
Speaker 8: something called the Warrior Poet Society, and uh, there's a
Speaker 8: thing on there called Order of Man and it's it's
Speaker 8: really about kind of a lot of Christian based stuff,
Speaker 8: but John was a ranger. There's a lot of military
Speaker 8: structure and like discipline things on there, like parenting tips
Speaker 8: just like ways to make yourself better and kind of
Speaker 8: be a sharper tool and the shed you know, to
Speaker 8: you know, I look at it like this, like I'm
Speaker 8: not really raising a little boy or a little girl.
Speaker 8: Like I'm raising a man and I'm raising a woman.
Speaker 8: And the way I want them to come up if
Speaker 8: I have my choice, I want them to be leaders
Speaker 8: of men, right like I wanted. So essentially I'm raising
Speaker 8: a king and a queen. You know, the rules change
Speaker 8: at that point, and I hold my boy to a
Speaker 8: higher standard because I feel like in society today, you know,
Speaker 8: there are a lot of things for kids to be
Speaker 8: confused about. But we're really pushing a lot of soft ship.
Speaker 8: Everybody gets a trophy thing and and uh, you know,
Speaker 8: just kind of encouraging a lot of college to not
Speaker 8: be so much boy Like a masculinity right right, and
Speaker 8: and I'm believing and unapologetic masculinity loves not toxic. And
Speaker 8: you know there's like when he fights like his buddies
Speaker 8: that you know, he'll have buddies over and they'll put
Speaker 8: on boxing gloves and fight, or they'll wrestle in the yard.
Speaker 8: Like I take a minute before I break it up,
Speaker 8: and the rest of the parents are freaking out. It's like, look,
Speaker 8: I want to encourage a little bit, but my son
Speaker 8: needs to know what it is to be aggressive, and
Speaker 8: then he's old enough to understand he needs to have
Speaker 8: the capacity to do violence. I mean, I know that's
Speaker 8: a terrible way to say it, but if he's going
Speaker 8: to have a family one day, you know, and if
Speaker 8: he's going to be taking care of people around him,
Speaker 8: he needs to have the capacity to be the most
Speaker 8: to have it.
Speaker 1: In you have it under controls that phrase, it's better
Speaker 1: to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener
Speaker 1: in a war. Yeah, see that again, It's better to
Speaker 1: be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in
Speaker 1: a war. Yes.
Speaker 8: I love that, man, and you know I want And
Speaker 8: my boy is so soft hearted, right, Like he has
Speaker 8: the kindest little heart in the world. And it's just like, man,
Speaker 8: I look at him and I love, like I adore
Speaker 8: that about him. That's something he has a heart that
Speaker 8: I do I don't have. I mean, in just the
Speaker 8: way he sees the world. Man, it's incredible to me.
Speaker 8: It blows my mind. But it worries me that he's
Speaker 8: gonna get run over like that. But he started to
Speaker 8: show we're getting some grid in him. He's showing a
Speaker 8: little grass and he likes and yeah, and the other thing.
Speaker 8: If he had another little brother he was running around with,
Speaker 8: I think he'd be different. But you know, with Sissy,
Speaker 8: I let him wrestle and stuff. But she's tiny. She's
Speaker 8: three and he's five. Yeah, but it's kind of.
Speaker 1: Dude. She planned a like coordinated attack on him in
Speaker 1: the playroom. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 8: I walked in and he's sitting there playing with legos
Speaker 8: by hisself in Florida, as sweet as he can be.
Speaker 8: And I see her little braids kind of popping to
Speaker 8: the top of the stairs. So I just kind of
Speaker 8: sunk back, and I was like, what's what happened?
Speaker 1: Dude?
Speaker 8: He was facing this way, So she walked around the
Speaker 8: room behind him this way. He came up behind him
Speaker 8: like tiptoeing. Now she has no idea that I'm watching
Speaker 8: at all, comes up behind him and she ran back
Speaker 8: as far as she could and she hit him in
Speaker 8: the side of the face.
Speaker 1: Like the ear area with the flat part of her
Speaker 1: fiz and he just puts his head and his heads
Speaker 1: and stopped crying. And I yelled at her.
Speaker 8: I was like, cissy, And you would think that she
Speaker 8: turned around and be like scared of death, that she's
Speaker 8: just getting trouble. Did that child turn around and looked
Speaker 8: at me like you remember Kings of Comedy? Bernie Max says,
Speaker 8: is little niece looked at him. It was it was
Speaker 8: straight up, right out of the Kings of Comedy. She
Speaker 8: looked at me and kind of poked her hip out,
Speaker 8: was like, yeah, whatever, what.
Speaker 1: Do you What are you gonna do about that? This
Speaker 1: is the way life is, no question. So your daughter
Speaker 1: does she have a one? He just says, straight out
Speaker 1: of comptent, she.
Speaker 3: Does not, Dude, I know, I know, I see people.
Speaker 3: I've seen people drop that before. That would be funny
Speaker 3: to have, that would be funny to have straight out
Speaker 3: of confidence. That'd be hilarious. But what I wanted what
Speaker 3: I want to pick your brain on too, because I
Speaker 3: don't have a son yet. Put that in the world
Speaker 3: like that, There's gonna be.
Speaker 1: There, There's gonna be there's gonna be a young confident,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a young William Irle compon the fourth
Speaker 1: out there one day.
Speaker 3: But I feel like if you're raising a boy, you
Speaker 3: almost default of being a little hard on them because
Speaker 3: you are you want the son to be better than
Speaker 3: you were. And I feel like having a little girl
Speaker 3: is just such a change of pace because you're we
Speaker 3: we aren't we aren't girls, and you're just a lot
Speaker 3: sweeter with them because like you just don't. It's not
Speaker 3: like you're looking at them like as your son you
Speaker 3: would your son on wanting to be harder than them.
Speaker 8: Absolutely, we understand their responsibilities or the way we understand
Speaker 8: our daughter's responsibility.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like there's more that connection to like
Speaker 3: being more of a daddy's girl and then a mama's
Speaker 3: boy because the opposite sex on that part. It's like uh,
Speaker 3: my wife raising rue or like any mom raising their daughter.
Speaker 3: They're probably a lot harder on them as well because
Speaker 3: they want them to be a better version than they were,
Speaker 3: and they understand growing up in the world, how the
Speaker 3: obstacles that you have to overcome. As with a boy,
Speaker 3: it's like we know the same thing as far as
Speaker 3: like raising a leader and knowing the obstacles we had
Speaker 3: to overcome, and we know what that young boy is
Speaker 3: going to go through as he gets older. With the girl,
Speaker 3: it's almost like you have a softer heart because they're
Speaker 3: just like your little girl.
Speaker 8: Absolutely, that's all I would think, you know what. I
Speaker 8: didn't notice though, and this is no joke. So historically, yes,
Speaker 8: I've been three times, my grandmother and my wife. Everybody
Speaker 8: says I'm too hard on him, but I also see
Speaker 8: tendencies in him that I that I remember for myself
Speaker 8: and things that I had to work out, and I
Speaker 8: know a lot of that. He's gonna do it his
Speaker 8: own if I can give him a head start. Man,
Speaker 8: you don't want to help, But yeah, you're totally right.
Speaker 8: And everything you said. My wife is she kind of
Speaker 8: gets to play good guy a lot of times with
Speaker 8: my son, and I'm a little rougher on him, and
Speaker 8: she knows she's got to muscle up on BRAI a
Speaker 8: little bit. But sucks just when I'm out of town.
Speaker 8: She's she has to play good guy and bad guy. Yeah,
Speaker 8: you know the coin. There's no way I could do
Speaker 8: what she does. But I will tell you this, man, Lately,
Speaker 8: like all jokes aside, my daughter has been kind of
Speaker 8: testing us, and she's kind of figured out.
Speaker 1: You know, she's a little.
Speaker 8: Gangster, right, so she's figuring out she's got some Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 8: I've had to I've had to uh give her, show
Speaker 8: her a little more but stern side like, I've had
Speaker 8: to kind of toughen up on her.
Speaker 1: A little bit.
Speaker 8: Yeah, And I thought it would push her away from me,
Speaker 8: but honestly, dude, it has. It has drawn her more
Speaker 8: to me. Real recognize real, Yeah, because well that but
Speaker 8: I thought, yeah, she's learning. Hey man, disrespect thing is
Speaker 8: is real. And I'm not gonna tell you that you
Speaker 8: can't do something just because I'm trying to ruin your fun,
Speaker 8: you know what I mean. I'm only going to tell
Speaker 8: you to do something if it's for your own good
Speaker 8: or if it's just it is what it is. Yeah,
Speaker 8: time to go get into bad, it's time to get
Speaker 8: into bed, it's time to you know. But it's a
Speaker 8: parents is one of the hardest, honest.
Speaker 1: What's that I said, let's not smoke your brother in
Speaker 1: the side of that. Yeah's definitely do that.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I feel like, do you think if your son and
Speaker 1: your daughter had switched personalities where your son's a little
Speaker 1: more rough around the edge, a little more of a gangster.
Speaker 1: Your daughter's a little more sweet. Do you think you'd
Speaker 1: be a little easier on your son knowing there's a
Speaker 1: little shit to him, because I think I'm gathering from you.
Speaker 1: You think so, because you're saying because he probably think
Speaker 1: earlier you were saying, hey, I got a tough a
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, and if he's already got that tough side,
Speaker 1: I feel like for me, i'd be okay, I got
Speaker 1: to teach some empathy here. Yeah, yeah, it'd be a
Speaker 1: different approach.
Speaker 8: Sure, yeah, dude, he I I'll get a chance to
Speaker 8: meet him at some point, because well, we all think
Speaker 8: our kids are the coolest thing in the world. But
Speaker 8: it's like, man, they both got a lot of their
Speaker 8: good from their mama, and I've never been so thankful,
Speaker 8: but it's like, I also have you know, I'm gonna
Speaker 8: have a different relationship with my kids coming up, And
Speaker 8: this is something I've kind of kind of running. So
Speaker 8: I got a song called The Man That Hung the Moon,
Speaker 8: and it's about the fact that one of these days,
Speaker 8: you know, right now they think I'm the coolest thing
Speaker 8: on the planet, one of these days are gonna figure
Speaker 8: out that there's chinks in armor and I don't have
Speaker 8: a cape. I'm not a superhero, and I made mistakes.
Speaker 8: And for me, it's gonna come sooner than than for
Speaker 8: most dads. As soon as they're old enough to you know,
Speaker 8: they're gonna be hearing stories, reading stories and watching us
Speaker 8: with the boys, and they're gonna be like, da, what's rehab?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 8: But as opposed to being you know, scared of that,
Speaker 8: or I'm not not saying I'm looking forward to it,
Speaker 8: but it's kind of gonna give me an option or
Speaker 8: an opportunity more to just get real with them and
Speaker 8: kind of let them know what's that on them.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuffs genetic. Yeah, it's like, hey, if.
Speaker 8: You know at early age, I don't I don't want
Speaker 8: to hide anything from them finding out from other people
Speaker 8: that you know, daddy had some issues or Daddy ran
Speaker 8: with a rough crowd, or Daddy got in trouble with
Speaker 8: the police or whatever. Like I plan on being extremely
Speaker 8: real with them, just you know, I feel like I
Speaker 8: owe them now, you know.
Speaker 1: When they get the school too, because other kids parents
Speaker 1: are going to know who you are and they're gonna
Speaker 1: say something like I was at a function with my
Speaker 1: daughter at her school and other kids are coming up
Speaker 1: to me, and my daddy told me about you. Dad,
Speaker 1: I said this about you, and I was like, fuck,
Speaker 1: I hope most of it's good. You don't really know
Speaker 1: like they're gonna start. Other kids are gonna take their parents'
Speaker 1: opinions about you and then press it on your kids,
Speaker 1: which is like a it's a unique thing you're gonna
Speaker 1: have to navigate that everybody has to do. It'll be
Speaker 1: a little bit interesting. I got stuff out there that
Speaker 1: my kids are going to see some day that I'm
Speaker 1: have to I'm I'm looking forward to explaining to them
Speaker 1: because it's like then you get an opportunity to, you know,
Speaker 1: lay it all down. And I'm a person that if
Speaker 1: I just live where I have no skeletons in the closet,
Speaker 1: then I'm I'm solid. The minute I got a secret,
Speaker 1: I start to get anxiety. I start to feel like
Speaker 1: a certain way. That's why I have to live like
Speaker 1: I have to. You know, if I do something, I'm
Speaker 1: like this is I did this.
Speaker 8: And I'm new to it, but it's like mine for
Speaker 8: me as much as anything was like you know, for
Speaker 8: for a long time, like rehab, addiction, trouble and stuff
Speaker 8: is kind of taboo to talk about hide it from everybody.
Speaker 8: Like with me, I've been to the point where I've
Speaker 8: just been out and open about everything, you know, but
Speaker 8: really living and making conscious decisions based on Man.
Speaker 1: Do I want to worry about that coming to buy
Speaker 1: me in the back? You know?
Speaker 8: Do I do I really have the time in my
Speaker 8: day to lose sleep over shit? And the answer is no.
Speaker 8: Times the most valuable thing in my life. I'm taking
Speaker 8: time away from my kids and my wife because I'm
Speaker 8: you know, I've got something taking my brain over.
Speaker 1: Has anything to do with conviction or guilt that I'm
Speaker 1: fucking up, I'll tell everybody. My nose is a vacuum.
Speaker 1: In College's Near Everything book, Yeah, how we were out there, brother,
Speaker 1: and it used to be obviously when you're in the
Speaker 1: middle of You're like, no one can know about this,
Speaker 1: And now like I think my head, like what if
Speaker 1: somebody comes down and says that I was playing my
Speaker 1: second year we were playing Detroit in Detroit and some
Speaker 1: guy in the back I was like sitting on the bench.
Speaker 1: Some dude was yelling Taylor. We used to do coke
Speaker 1: together in the dorms. I'm kind of sitting there. My
Speaker 1: coach is like, what's that about? Like he's he's drunk,
Speaker 1: he doesn't know. That guy's a liar. He's a fucking liar.
Speaker 1: And you're sitting there, uh, on the side listening to
Speaker 1: some of your old friends tell stories. Yeah we were
Speaker 1: in Vegas what in January? Yeah, I mean my boys
Speaker 1: are so I don't even remember. Like Taylor made me
Speaker 1: do this and then we went and did that. I'm like,
Speaker 1: holy fuck, yeah it is. But then you like, as
Speaker 1: long as like you've tried to be better since then,
Speaker 1: and you're like better, like you in your head, you
Speaker 1: can like go look yourself with the me Like, Bud,
Speaker 1: you've been doing a lot of work and a lot
Speaker 1: of reading and doing a lot of good stuff. Should
Speaker 1: be proud of where you came from. You should be
Speaker 1: proud of all that. Yeah we made it, but it's
Speaker 1: all about you got to get in front of everything. Brother.
Speaker 1: That stuff is the ship that it keeps my ass up,
Speaker 1: And I.
Speaker 3: Think ultimately when that stuff does come up, it's I
Speaker 3: think that a lot of there's a lot of positive
Speaker 3: to it because I mean, you're Brandley Gilbert, You've been
Speaker 3: at the top of the mountain. You've been at the
Speaker 3: top of the mountain and then had to admit that
Speaker 3: you had a problem and then going to rehab.
Speaker 1: And that's just like being human.
Speaker 3: Everybody has like faults and shortcomings, and you're open and
Speaker 3: talking about it, and somebody who's been as high as
Speaker 3: you have to see that this dude struggles with a
Speaker 3: lot of things that everybody struggles with, and you'll get
Speaker 3: to tell them about that and like, yeah, I'm sure
Speaker 3: it'll be uncomfortable, but at the same time, like you know,
Speaker 3: dad doesn't, it's gonna be a lot of stress off
Speaker 3: your shoulders when they do realize we don't have capes
Speaker 3: and it's like, hey, yeah, your dad went through this
Speaker 3: and did this. This is why I teach you and
Speaker 3: why I tell you to you know, try to avoid
Speaker 3: certain situations because we've all like as parents, always try
Speaker 3: to do like our parents did with us, like try
Speaker 3: to tell them about situations that they went through. But
Speaker 3: it's usually one year out the other. But when you
Speaker 3: see it and it's public, especially when when you're a figure,
Speaker 3: it's gonna be like I think a lot of positive
Speaker 3: will come from that. Like, yeah, I'm sure it'll suck,
Speaker 3: like when kids are telling them at school about what
Speaker 3: their parents did and shit like that. But you know,
Speaker 3: you've you've grown through a lot of things, and I
Speaker 3: think there'll be a lot of good stuff that comes
Speaker 3: from that.
Speaker 1: It also gives them an opportunity.
Speaker 8: I think if we're that honest with them, right, kind
Speaker 8: of encourages them to, Yeah, got to return the favor
Speaker 8: and be honest with us, because I don't ever want
Speaker 8: my kids to feel like.
Speaker 1: They're dealing with something that they can't talk to me
Speaker 1: but would suck, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8: That's that's one of my biggest fears is of d
Speaker 8: It is like relationship with my son where he feels like,
Speaker 8: dam I'm dealing with something, but man, I can't talk
Speaker 8: to my dad about it, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like, I don't want to be the opposite. Yeah, right
Speaker 1: of that. That's gonna kill me if he knows about
Speaker 1: this right a whole day trying to figure out a
Speaker 1: way to lie about it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, holds you accountable, but I ain't never you know,
Speaker 8: take it overboard with him and.
Speaker 1: Showing that you do talk about it as an example
Speaker 1: of that, right, so oh.
Speaker 10: Yeahfull hopefully you do have those those conversations do happen
Speaker 10: and he does feel or your kids feel comfortable because
Speaker 10: they see that Dad gets in front of a microphone
Speaker 10: and it is it's scared to talk through some of
Speaker 10: these shortcomings in his life.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, be good podcast for kids look back on. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah. They'll see the Bust with the Boys interview.
Speaker 1: There's no question, no doubt in my mind and I
Speaker 1: are both in our mid forties still doing the show.
Speaker 8: They'll also say the Rhymen performance last week with Jelly
Speaker 8: Row were a little joint.
Speaker 1: On stage, but it was classic. Dude.
Speaker 8: I was actually a little bit nervous, so we were
Speaker 8: in the backstage, Raymond. You know, Jelly smokes a lot.
Speaker 8: I do too, so we lit up. We're backstage, we're
Speaker 8: talking and this manager comes in and I was like, dude,
Speaker 8: you know what, has anybody lit a joint on stage
Speaker 8: at the Rymen? And he said, I don't know. I
Speaker 8: know they have back here because we're doing it right now. Yeah,
Speaker 8: but I don't know if that So I just told
Speaker 8: you one out there women halfway through the song, dude, honest, Scott,
Speaker 8: it was almost just muscle memory I told it out
Speaker 8: there women and lit it up and got to sing.
Speaker 1: And what I forgot today was not I hit it
Speaker 1: a little harder than I meant to. It came time
Speaker 1: for me to sing my part, and I'm like, fell
Speaker 1: I was me, Yeah, yeah, that's great. Jelly brings it
Speaker 1: out of people.
Speaker 11: Man.
Speaker 1: All the places you've played, is Ryman one of those
Speaker 1: spots like, fuck, I've made it.
Speaker 8: Man, I'll tell you it's like. So, my goal in
Speaker 8: to music business was to sell out to Georgia Theater.
Speaker 8: I saw Cory Smith do it when I was like
Speaker 8: seventeen and I was on the show, and it was
Speaker 8: so freaking cool man, just seeing how proud he was,
Speaker 8: and it totally rubbed off on me. I was like,
Speaker 8: if I can do that, if I could do music
Speaker 8: full time and just make ends me, Like, how cool
Speaker 8: would that be?
Speaker 1: And uh?
Speaker 8: I did that early on in my early twenties and really, man,
Speaker 8: everything since Sin it's been a really really cool bonus.
Speaker 8: But I've never been one of the you know, kind
Speaker 8: of one of my biggest regrets of my careers. I
Speaker 8: never really was very good about stopping smelling roses.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 8: It's always been head down, I'm worried about what's next.
Speaker 8: You know the cool Thist song at number one? All right,
Speaker 8: what's the next one again?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
Speaker 8: Cool, This album's out, It's great release day, was great
Speaker 8: on release night, or probably actually several months before. Like
Speaker 8: I'm always working on the next record. I just I
Speaker 8: did not do a good job of kind of stopping
Speaker 8: and soaking things in. I try to do a better
Speaker 8: job of that later in life. You know, it's it's
Speaker 8: invaluable though, because if I've got that, if I look
Speaker 8: back at that and it's something I would have done
Speaker 8: different than my career, Damn sure. I'm not gonna make
Speaker 8: the same mistake with my kids, you know what I mean,
Speaker 8: make a point to stop and just kind of just
Speaker 8: kind of let the weight of the moments with them
Speaker 8: sinking in so I don't lose them a lot of times,
Speaker 8: man ship, when I talk about my career now, when
Speaker 8: he asked me about like when you know you made
Speaker 8: it venues, I don't remember half places I played. I
Speaker 8: will tell you the rhymen. There's the sanctity there. It's
Speaker 8: this different opry. He's got a vibe, but the Georgia
Speaker 8: Theater's got an incredible vibe for me, you know, because
Speaker 8: that was that was the I mean.
Speaker 1: You're seventeen watching Cory Smith being lady. This is fucking
Speaker 1: yea walking out on stage like I did that.
Speaker 8: Yeah, well even that night, I was like, man, I
Speaker 8: feel like I had to do something to do with it.
Speaker 8: Maybe Yeah, of course I didn't. He was freaking on
Speaker 8: fire then. But also, man, it's like, I'll tell you
Speaker 8: Red Rocks in Colorado.
Speaker 1: Have you ever been to a show there?
Speaker 8: You got you gotta do that that place, man, there's
Speaker 8: so much history on that stage, but there is like
Speaker 8: it's it's like a sanctuary moment kind of. It's just
Speaker 8: a different show than you're gonna get anywhere else on
Speaker 8: the tour. Like we'll play this Nickelback tour, it'll be
Speaker 8: boss to the walls. I'm you know, we're gonna have
Speaker 8: great nights out on that tour. But dude, a solid
Speaker 8: show at at UH, at Red Rocks and in Denver.
Speaker 8: It's just hard to be if.
Speaker 1: You didn't play country music was genre of music? What
Speaker 1: you playing instead?
Speaker 8: I don't know I'd be doing music, man, I'll be
Speaker 8: honest with you. This is honest of god truth. I
Speaker 8: think my stuff ended up country because I'm a country dude.
Speaker 8: I don't really write songs about a lot of stuff
Speaker 8: I don't understand or hadn't lived, so all the stuff
Speaker 8: wound up being country.
Speaker 1: But I'll listen to a little bit of everything.
Speaker 8: I mean, when it's Jelly Roll and I are working
Speaker 8: on an album together right now, and when it when
Speaker 8: it comes out, you'll get to see a little bit
Speaker 8: of that.
Speaker 1: You know, we change hats a little bit.
Speaker 8: But my records early on, you know, they've shifted to
Speaker 8: more just straight directed at country for a little while.
Speaker 8: We've always had a little head of your rock element
Speaker 8: to most. But in the next few records, man, I'm
Speaker 8: kind of gonna go back to doing what I really
Speaker 8: love doing. And that's what that's that's letting the song
Speaker 8: be whatever fucking wants to be. You know, if a
Speaker 8: song wants to be a rock so've I've had a habit,
Speaker 8: you know, through the years, I picked up this thing
Speaker 8: where we'd have a rock song. It's like, all right,
Speaker 8: that's cool, but we need to try to put some
Speaker 8: instrumentation on it and bend it back towards country, which
Speaker 8: is cool. You know, it's it's a decision we made
Speaker 8: along the way. But now, man, the way people are
Speaker 8: consuming music is so different, Like all the rules are
Speaker 8: out the window. I'm really ready to have fun again.
Speaker 8: If I almost spend time away for my wife and kids,
Speaker 8: I might as well be having the most fun I can. Yeah, man,
Speaker 8: I mean that's where I'm at life. What rules are
Speaker 8: out the window everything, man, so we can.
Speaker 1: Say fuck Now it's a big not on the radio,
Speaker 1: But for me, it was just more.
Speaker 8: More about what songs were saying and how they sounded
Speaker 8: than anything. I always said, if we if country music itself,
Speaker 8: if the genre is a box, we always knew where
Speaker 8: we belong to those right on the outside of it,
Speaker 8: close enough to touch it. But but we've always been
Speaker 8: outside of the box and I love living there. But
Speaker 8: now it's it's like, you know, I've always been a
Speaker 8: fan of huge records, right like law records with a
Speaker 8: bunch of songs on them that are themed, that tell
Speaker 8: a story. Every one of my albums up to this
Speaker 8: point has been a chapter of my life that you
Speaker 8: could literally listen to my stuff from the beginning to
Speaker 8: end and have a really really good idea who I
Speaker 8: am and what I've been through and I've always liked
Speaker 8: that about my career and the way we chose to
Speaker 8: do things. But it's, uh, now, you know, it's hard
Speaker 8: to get somebody to listen through a full unless somebody's
Speaker 8: a diehard fan of yours. They're listening to the songs
Speaker 8: with stars beside them and bouncing right, you know what
Speaker 8: I mean. So now it's kind of like it's turned
Speaker 8: into to me, I'm going to try a couple of
Speaker 8: these next records. I almost like, man, we all remember
Speaker 8: burning CDs right where you had a nineties country song
Speaker 8: right next to Tupac, you know, right next to whatever.
Speaker 8: It was just a little bit of everything. I enjoy
Speaker 8: listening to a little bit of everything. But I'm a
Speaker 8: country dude, so the way something sounds may be a
Speaker 8: little different, but what it's about would probably be pretty consistent. Yeah,
Speaker 8: but man, I just kind of want to let songs
Speaker 8: be songs. I want to get in writing rooms with
Speaker 8: guys that are insanely talented, the best in the world
Speaker 8: at what they do, and just see what the room's
Speaker 8: got to offer, you know what I mean, See what
Speaker 8: everybody's bringing to the table. Instead of going, ah, it's
Speaker 8: a little too country or that's a little too rap,
Speaker 8: that's a little too rock, like all that, let's write it,
Speaker 8: then we'll write something else.
Speaker 1: Dude, I miss burning CDs. That's like one of the
Speaker 1: most one deal had that ship too, Like when you
Speaker 1: you like name your little thing. Yeah, it's when your
Speaker 1: voice like when he's flipping through the bangers. Yeah, bangers,
Speaker 1: some bangers. Singers all have bangers one, two, and three?
Speaker 1: Which one you want?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 3: Or when you when that first friend who could burn
Speaker 3: CDs and you're thinking, like burn CDs, you're talking you
Speaker 3: can put all these different songs on there, like, hey,
Speaker 3: could you bring me a CD?
Speaker 1: You listen one? You have that big like the CDs
Speaker 1: put in it? Yeah, better dude.
Speaker 8: We had a dude at the flea market. This dude's
Speaker 8: still around. His name was Chunky. He sold like burn CDs,
Speaker 8: but was selling them. Yeah, they came down on them
Speaker 8: pretty hard. I think that Georgia one time, but he did.
Speaker 8: He's such a good dude, but yeah, that was that
Speaker 8: was the greatest man. I remember my wife still had
Speaker 8: a burn CD I made for her after during one
Speaker 8: of our breakups back in the day.
Speaker 1: With the breakup burn Yeah, get him back or whatever.
Speaker 8: Nickelback saws on Theirs Brian McKnight. Yeah, you know what
Speaker 8: I'm saying, boys to men, all the things.
Speaker 1: All those you knew when you give that to her,
Speaker 1: Like when she listens to this, Yeah, you know, just
Speaker 1: to listen to it. It's a rule. Yeah, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. There's no way she's not She's not
Speaker 1: getting too for the first day, maybe in the first week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she'll be in there. She'll be in a thirty minute car,
Speaker 1: right and be like looking at it. You'll be like
Speaker 1: to call fifteen minutes. Yeah, impatiently waiting for she was
Speaker 1: gonna call me. After that one.
Speaker 8: We went five or six years without speaking to each
Speaker 8: other that time, five for six years. Yeah, yeah, we
Speaker 8: both went our separate ways. We were about five or
Speaker 8: six on and off. She was young when I met her.
Speaker 8: I was working on some community service hours at the
Speaker 8: church around my hometown and that's the church her family
Speaker 8: went to, and uh I met her there and I
Speaker 8: think she was like sixteen. I was at eighteen or
Speaker 8: something or nineteen. Uh So we talked on the phone
Speaker 8: for a long time. And then when she turned eight
Speaker 8: thing and her parents won't gonna let her have anything
Speaker 8: to do with me. We tried to tried to do
Speaker 8: the talking thing, the dating thing, and it was on
Speaker 8: and off for a long time. But uh, what it
Speaker 8: came down to me was I was doing some things
Speaker 8: and hanging around with some folks that she wasn't cool
Speaker 8: with for good reason. And uh, I'll never forget dude.
Speaker 8: I'll pull in a driveway one night to drop her off.
Speaker 8: This was d night, and you know, we we both
Speaker 8: knew we'd come to a point. I'd got into some
Speaker 8: things with some some dudes that I didn't want her around.
Speaker 8: I needed to kind of distance myself from the motorcycle club. Yeah,
Speaker 8: this this was like these weren't This wasn't like a
Speaker 8: one percenter club or nothing. These were angels, not that,
Speaker 8: not those guys. No, this is this is just a
Speaker 8: group of dudes that that I ran with around my town.
Speaker 8: And not all of them were bikers. It was just
Speaker 8: but there's some some weird stuff going on. I didn't
Speaker 8: want her being a part of that. She didn't want
Speaker 8: she wasn't going to be a part of it. And
Speaker 8: I remember her saying, like we had named Braylen like
Speaker 8: our daughter's name. Like I knew I wanted to marry
Speaker 8: this woman, like early early on. But she she said
Speaker 8: that night, you know, I told her that I, you know,
Speaker 8: got some things going on it that aren't awesome. And
Speaker 8: she's like, well, I need been meaning to talk to
Speaker 8: you anyway, she said, look, I love you, and you know,
Speaker 8: but YadA YadA. But she said, it scares me, you know,
Speaker 8: to talk about having kids and having a life like
Speaker 8: forever was somebody that rides around with a truck full
Speaker 8: of guns and you know, two fists of liquor and
Speaker 8: the console.
Speaker 1: And and pills.
Speaker 8: And it was like, you know what, and there is
Speaker 8: no argument for that, you know what I mean. I
Speaker 8: remember dropping her off and and I never would drink
Speaker 8: around her h when I had her. When I dropped
Speaker 8: her off the house, by the by the time I
Speaker 8: got to hinder her driveway number, when I was shaking
Speaker 8: like a dog. By the time I dropped her off,
Speaker 8: by the time I got to Endo her driveway, I
Speaker 8: had a quarter going out of a bottle, you know,
Speaker 8: And I drank all the way home. And uh so
Speaker 8: it was just, man, I was in a terrible place
Speaker 8: and life. When we went five or six years without speaking,
Speaker 8: we both went our separate ways and then, uh my cousin,
Speaker 8: who was the youth pastor at that church, called me
Speaker 8: on June sixteenth to twenty fourteen and said, uh, man,
Speaker 8: I got somebody over here that I wouln't mind talking to.
Speaker 1: You had and thought in.
Speaker 8: A while I heard you were sober this, that, and
Speaker 8: the other, and wouldn't mind seeing it. I was supposed
Speaker 8: to be in LA for a week, and I told him.
Speaker 8: I was like, dude, do you know what My schedule
Speaker 8: is wide open this week. I'll be over there tomorrow.
Speaker 8: I know exactly what he was talking about, and I
Speaker 8: remember sitting in the driveway being like, all right, sober
Speaker 8: for life no matter what, or not sober for life, Jesus,
Speaker 8: single for life no matter what, because really, dude, I
Speaker 8: you know, like I was talking about earlier, dude does
Speaker 8: getting ride motorcycles every day, going wherever the hell I
Speaker 8: wanted to, doing whatever the hell I wanted to. I
Speaker 8: was happy, you know, but I did want to see her.
Speaker 8: But I remember thinking single for life, single for life,
Speaker 8: single for life. She walked around the corner and I
Speaker 8: was like, fuck, all that shit went out the window.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I knew then, like I absolutely knew that we were engaged,
Speaker 8: got engaged, we were married a year later.
Speaker 1: She married June twenty eight, twenty fifteen. That's awesome. Tell
Speaker 1: you what the one part of that story. Your girl
Speaker 1: comes home, she's in high school. She's like, Daddy, I'm
Speaker 1: at this boy. He's eighteen. Yeah, you're already behind the
Speaker 1: eight ball. Man, have night. Man. I was eighteen, she
Speaker 1: was sixteen seventy. I was like, oh, no, brother, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: because you remember those girls in high school? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that that we're all fourteen to fifteen. They're going with
Speaker 1: the kids that can drive.
Speaker 8: Yeah, hold on, strange he's going down I want he said,
Speaker 8: yeah as well?
Speaker 1: And what what the thirty six I just turned intil
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, man, fuck got close? You got
Speaker 1: closer telling damn story. Almost the worst crime you did. No, hey,
Speaker 1: but you as a dad, I got two girls. I'm
Speaker 1: terrified for that. It's probably one of the scariest things
Speaker 1: on them. Just stating in general, Yeah, I'm just not
Speaker 1: excited for it. I hope I either. I hope I
Speaker 1: could be cool about it.
Speaker 8: You know what, my bick, your dad said something pretty cool.
Speaker 8: This might might feel better like your dad biological No, okay,
Speaker 8: not far from Okay, he does have a sick beard,
Speaker 8: does I guess? I kind of wish i'd got that. Hey, brother,
Speaker 8: don't sleep on your beard.
Speaker 1: Now you got a beard. You see this over here,
Speaker 1: it's coming. Have that, but dude, it's coming. Like you
Speaker 1: just think, Hey, you don't got to do this. I
Speaker 1: got a little Okay, I know I get it all right,
Speaker 1: Well if you just let it go and go yeah, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: it doesn't do that. No, I'm a mustache guy. Throw
Speaker 1: a card now who I am?
Speaker 8: See my mustache grows weird when I just try to
Speaker 8: do a mustache by itself, super weird.
Speaker 1: My dad always had a mustache. If I love if
Speaker 1: you had a mustache, you have big nineteen year old
Speaker 1: dating a fifteen year old vibe? You know you think
Speaker 1: about that.
Speaker 6: You're right, that's.
Speaker 1: Mine's picking this up right. Yeah he's getting younger. Yeah
Speaker 1: that's my dad. What was Yeah? Fuck man, but you
Speaker 1: put your bike your dad? Yeah. So he tells me
Speaker 1: love me. So I was telling him. I was like, dude,
Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 8: Like first dude that shows up at our house, walks,
Speaker 8: talks acts anything like me, Like i'most stab the fuck
Speaker 8: out of him as many times as I can till
Speaker 8: the cops pull me off. And he's like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 8: that's a little much. But he said, uh, here's what
Speaker 8: he already tells you. He said, listen to me, listen,
Speaker 8: here's the deal. Girls that have good relationships with for
Speaker 8: daddies usually ain't the ones we got to go pull
Speaker 8: off the pole, which made sense to me.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Yeah that makes sense.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's like dude, I mean, I'm gonna try to
Speaker 8: add the best relationship I can with my daughter, right.
Speaker 8: I don't want her looking for things she should be
Speaker 8: getting from me, from from other folks, you know what
Speaker 8: I mean, and.
Speaker 1: And other having the daddy issues right right, we don't
Speaker 1: want that, right.
Speaker 8: But I think at the end of the day, man,
Speaker 8: if we if we raise our daughters to the best
Speaker 8: of our ability, right, I think they're gonna be young,
Speaker 8: and they're gonna make mistakes, right, but that's that's what's
Speaker 8: going to turn them into the women they're gonna be.
Speaker 8: That then we're gonna be so proud of. I don't
Speaker 8: look forward to them making mistakes and having to deal
Speaker 8: with that. But at the same time, like I have
Speaker 8: faith in my daughter already as a three year old.
Speaker 8: But by the end we're gonna have her coached up.
Speaker 8: And if old boy pulled some shit, I'm not teaching
Speaker 8: my daughter to remove herself from a situation. I'm teaching
Speaker 8: her to shoot that some a bit as many times
Speaker 8: as you can and then remove yourself from a situation.
Speaker 1: Oh my, I'll probably have to edit that.
Speaker 8: Sorry, you have a heart attack about that. I woke
Speaker 8: up really honestly this morning. I woke up honest.
Speaker 1: Fifteen sixteen years from now, your dollar's gonna bring on
Speaker 1: the boys. It's gonna be William Earl Compton the Fort.
Speaker 1: He'll be a good young man, he'll be a good
Speaker 1: be a good young man. But yeah, he'll be waiting
Speaker 1: for when you find out who the dad is. You're like, hey, brother,
Speaker 1: put this on when you go over there, and he'll
Speaker 1: love every coming shirt.
Speaker 7: Dude.
Speaker 1: Oh no.
Speaker 8: So the other thing is, I mean, I do have
Speaker 8: a couple of plays though, because if he's a doucebag
Speaker 8: like I think, maybe I'll just line on our entire
Speaker 8: driveway with bikers and make him drive past every one
Speaker 8: of them boys type stuff. Yeah, and then just some
Speaker 8: good veway just made him out of there. But the
Speaker 8: good ones, the most scary ones get.
Speaker 1: They're all nice men. They're great people for the most part.
Speaker 8: Yeah, but lining the whole driveway bikers right having drive
Speaker 8: past every one of them, and then we'll search him
Speaker 8: in the driveway and we'll walk out and made him

Speaker 1: Our little part of that.
Speaker 8: It's not like it's, you know, a super high crime
Speaker 8: or anything, but they do have the m word over
Speaker 8: where where we're from. I mean, if you go to
Speaker 8: the Dollar General, they'll give you a six pack of

Speaker 8: really yeah, you know, I walk around with a dog
Speaker 8: in there. As didn't think Hey, thinking about it, like

Speaker 8: middle of the aisle and kind of followed us down
Speaker 8: a little ways and I was like, I had to
Speaker 8: get my wife's sunglasses and we ran in the sunglass
Speaker 8: Hu When we came out, he had the cop with
Speaker 8: the dog is standing over here looking at us. Real

Speaker 8: we're in the drive through pitch dark, all lights are out.
Speaker 8: They're the only place open. Just shouldn't have been anybody there.
Speaker 8: Out of nowhere, the dude comes up and the first

Speaker 3: a killer shot on U for shut grab my phone, write.
Speaker 1: It in Yeah, I got it. Hit her one.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah that woul almost You could have just said it.
Speaker 1: We could have ended the podcast right there. We don't
Speaker 1: have this episode to bring you more Labs. I don't
Speaker 1: know about you, but I can't drink as much as
Speaker 1: I could in college without feeling like shit.
Speaker 3: Even just a few drinks, as you feeling like crap
Speaker 3: these days, and in a world where being pulled in
Speaker 3: a thousand different directions, you can't afford to miss a day.
Speaker 8: More More Labs created this nifty life saver of a
Speaker 8: drink called Morning Recovery that helps prevent rough mornings after drinking.
Speaker 1: Similar drinks have existed in Korea for a long time,
Speaker 1: but there are no options like it in the US
Speaker 1: that worked. So their founder quits his job at Tessa.
Speaker 1: That's right Tesla to fix that and create Morning Recovery.
Speaker 3: It's super simple. All you have to do is drink
Speaker 3: one Morning Recovery while you drink or before you go
Speaker 3: to bed.
Speaker 8: It contains super herbs, vitamins, and minerals to help you
Speaker 8: house back in a proprietary blend of electro likes to
Speaker 8: rehydrate you.
Speaker 1: So you get have fun at night and we'll feel
Speaker 1: good the next day. I feel like a real human,
Speaker 1: like you did when you were twenty one. They conducted
Speaker 1: a clinical study and users of Morning Recovery felled up
Speaker 1: to eighty percent better than those without Morning Recovery across
Speaker 1: various symptoms after drinking. Morning Recovery is made pedio light.
Speaker 1: It's bitch, I said, where's you reading Cold Action? Go
Speaker 1: to more Labs dot com.
Speaker 8: That's more Labs dot com and use code boys for
Speaker 8: twenty percent off your first order of Morning Recovery.
Speaker 1: Back to this episode, I mean we could end it. However,
Speaker 1: I don't think we did it good. I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think like we talked through this whole reclining
Speaker 3: the seat and the airplane thing. I think if you
Speaker 3: pay for the seat, the seats are built for that
Speaker 3: little bit of extra leg room, And I think it's
Speaker 3: perfectly fine, I think recline your chair.
Speaker 1: There are literally articles.
Speaker 3: Unless unless somebody like hus behind me and asked me beforehand, Hey,
Speaker 3: if you cannot recline your seat, I would greatly appreciate it.
Speaker 8: Would never then I would consideration like if you see
Speaker 8: a giraffe behind you, maybe don't do it.
Speaker 1: But maybe I'm not looking to see who's behind me.
Speaker 1: You see me walking down the aisles, and you know,
Speaker 1: if you're on Southwest, I always tell hey, listen, brother,
Speaker 1: it is what it is. I'm gonna sit in that window.
Speaker 1: See if that's all right. So you never recline your seat,
Speaker 1: not if I'm in a like a regular seat, now
Speaker 1: if I'm in first class, or if I'm in the
Speaker 1: ex row, which don't. Even if the X row does reclimb,
Speaker 1: I've seen you reclimb plent any times. You're a liar, brother.
Speaker 1: I'm just letting you know. And there are there are
Speaker 1: actual articles that came out about how airlines put the
Speaker 1: most minimum possible amount you can put in. There are
Speaker 1: that old extra leg room thing. There is none, and
Speaker 1: you know the little spot under the chairs your back
Speaker 1: is supposed to go. I can't even fucking can't do
Speaker 1: that sometimes because the little thing will hit my knees.
Speaker 1: So there's way more positive than negatives. But when you're
Speaker 1: riding on a ten can thirty thousand in the air,
Speaker 1: that's just happens to be one con. Your knees are
Speaker 1: lower than the little dashboard. If I if I'm sitting
Speaker 1: regular and I open the little dashboard thing, it comes down.
Speaker 1: It doesn't lay all the way flat.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm saying your knees like it's under the
Speaker 3: little dashboard, like it might touch the bottom.
Speaker 1: I know what you mean, like, because it's the same
Speaker 1: way with me. Yeah. People are clining in front of
Speaker 1: me all the time, and I'm not Everyone not hurting
Speaker 1: a way when somebody reclined, not complaining like a little
Speaker 1: bit about somebody reclining on the back. It's not, it's not.
Speaker 1: It's not complain like a little bitch. And I need
Speaker 1: you to button that up a little bit? Will I
Speaker 1: need you to button that up? Betime? We need social media.
Speaker 1: We needed that for that one. After here, I'm going
Speaker 1: under right, Yeah, what do you.
Speaker 3: Guys think about the reclining? I'd like to get more
Speaker 3: opinions in here. Mitch is ready, I have a little enthusiasm.
Speaker 12: I'm with Taylor. I fucking hate it. And the people
Speaker 12: that can do it in front of you are the
Speaker 12: worst scumbags of all time.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is aggressive. Aggressive. But because you
Speaker 1: told my salmon and gree with everything you just said.
Speaker 12: That, there's nothing worse, because like I never reclined my
Speaker 12: my seat because I just think it's disrespectful and I'm
Speaker 12: not going to do that to the person behind me
Speaker 12: unless it's like a little kid.
Speaker 1: But if it's a little kid, that's the pro.
Speaker 12: Yes, exactly. But the people that do it to me,
Speaker 12: I'm like, what are you doing? You're getting an extra
Speaker 12: inch of like leaning back.
Speaker 1: It's not even you get a little bit more comfort
Speaker 1: because they got to stuff a neck pillow.
Speaker 3: Neck pillow some lower lumbar instability, and it helps me
Speaker 3: recline and take a little bit of pressure off the spine.
Speaker 1: So take a sweater, roll it up and put it
Speaker 1: behind your back. Will, for God's sakes, JP, what do
Speaker 1: you got. I think that it should be a rule,
Speaker 1: and then it helps the lumbar support that will as
Speaker 1: bad as my knees are, Will's backs just like you
Speaker 1: know what, that's when I flipped you in the pool
Speaker 1: here ago remember the whole next week, I was like,
Speaker 1: oh boy, here, he's from Missouri.
Speaker 4: Missouri.
Speaker 1: They wrestle out there. I love so. I've tried to
Speaker 1: wrestle will on three separate occasions. All three times I've
Speaker 1: gotten tossed. He puts that hip on me and tosses
Speaker 1: my ass out of there. I've been successful. He's gonna
Speaker 1: get his, though. I gotta wait till he's not paying attention,
Speaker 1: because my boy is quick twitch. I'll be honest and
Speaker 1: he gets. He'll get he'll get low on you quick
Speaker 1: and kind of get under the arm arm pits a
Speaker 1: little bit. He doesn't. He does a good job. You
Speaker 1: can tell he's trained. You can tell he's trained everything.
Speaker 1: I'll give hi, miss Flowers while we're here. We gotta
Speaker 1: get you. I got a little bit on the left.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, she do, sir, meaning business. There you have it.
Speaker 3: No, it's not bad at all. Like Cody's are fucking
Speaker 3: swollen where you can barely see.
Speaker 1: The hole cut. Some guy in college swolled up. I
Speaker 1: was terrified. I was you cut him like cut Like
Speaker 1: a cut is when like you go high to low
Speaker 1: and take up your knees. I got you. I gets see.
Speaker 1: This is where we speak different language. It's all right, brother,
Speaker 1: I mean what did you say? Just say you're with
Speaker 1: it or not?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: With the planes? Yeah? What the hell do you say
Speaker 1: right now? Huh yeah? No, I said, uh.
Speaker 9: Personally, I don't do it because I feel bad, but
Speaker 9: I think planes because I want to do it, and
Speaker 9: I'll just feel bad. But I think planes should make
Speaker 9: everybody recline once you reach the certain are so then
Speaker 9: everybody can lean back and there's no harm, no foul.
Speaker 1: You can recline as well, like when somebody reclines, but
Speaker 1: it should be like mandatory. Here's the mandate.
Speaker 3: You recline it literally as you're taking off, everybodyeels a
Speaker 3: little bit of pressure leaning back, you hit the little
Speaker 3: reclined then it's like a natural.
Speaker 1: Here's what happened to me, because my legs go out
Speaker 1: and I'll hit that little button and I'll end up
Speaker 1: being reclined.
Speaker 4: I'll end up being it just happens.
Speaker 1: Happened because it is. It is on a scent. I go,
Speaker 1: I'll look over and I'll be like, not even with
Speaker 1: the other chair, I'm like, oh fucking I'll then you
Speaker 1: just then you're good man. You you you have the
Speaker 1: luxury of a first class seat or an exit row seat.
Speaker 1: Be my guest, you've you owned the plane. Well you're
Speaker 1: sitting and jen Pop. You need to be a leader.
Speaker 1: You need to be a leader. I'm just saying jack. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you're saying commercial, I think there's two seats
Speaker 5: you're allowed to do it, and it's the ones in
Speaker 5: front of the exit row where there's only two and
Speaker 5: you get your like your favorite seat in gim pop
Speaker 5: the real extra leg room you're sitting in front of
Speaker 5: that seat, then it's all day.
Speaker 1: That might be the best seat in the house. Yeah.
Speaker 5: But yeah, I'm I'm not a big reclining guy, just
Speaker 5: because when you're tall enough and you get that knee pressure,
Speaker 5: especially if for a flight from like La to Nashville.
Speaker 1: Fuck that. That's never it's never gentle and always aggressive.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's always always like a fifty year old
Speaker 5: lady who's like, in my mind, she's already yelling at
Speaker 5: me and like doing all this bullshit. She's like, you're
Speaker 5: not good enough for this plane, so I'm gonna take
Speaker 5: your room. So I'm already angry that a bit of
Speaker 5: something that's right. That's how I feel about it. Yeah,
Speaker 5: but I say no, But you know, I guess at
Speaker 5: the end of the day, you pay for your seat.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean the button's there for a reason. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying it's a scumbag move. It is especially the
Speaker 1: little people, dude, not little little people. But like if
Speaker 1: you're if you're five to four, well you you got
Speaker 1: all the labor and you can kick them little feet
Speaker 1: out do your feet probably don't even touch the ground,
Speaker 1: like you just let yourself chill. Oh. I didn't like
Speaker 1: the way Garrett asked for that, mic.
Speaker 9: No, I just got a question if if a little
Speaker 9: kid is in front of you and they go to
Speaker 9: lean back, if you ever.
Speaker 1: Just oh, I'll if I if I'm aware. If I'm aware, buddy,
Speaker 1: I don't need to put the hand. I just put that.
Speaker 1: I put that knee right in the middle. You could
Speaker 1: do it. And that's why I have to look at
Speaker 1: my boys downstairs, and you guys gotta fight this battle. Yeah,
Speaker 1: some people hit you be like yeah, start pushing it
Speaker 1: back and and I fucking put this thing in there, like, brother,
Speaker 1: that is not the game. Definitely giving the little kid,
Speaker 1: does it? Yeah, bitch, they're on your switch. Yeah, you're
Speaker 1: little dude, Like, I've definitely done that.
Speaker 9: I'm also guilty of sitting down and giving it a
Speaker 9: little bit before we even move.
Speaker 1: I'm a big dude.
Speaker 3: I'm a big leg it, Like put my legs up
Speaker 3: to where my knee needs that room and everything else,
Speaker 3: and I just I like slowly make contact with it,
Speaker 3: and if it goes up a little bit, it goes up.
Speaker 3: But I'm not trying to be disrespectful, but my knee,
Speaker 3: like it's like yo, they want to lean back.
Speaker 1: Sorry. Yeah, Oh that one's broken. Yeah, that one's broken.
Speaker 1: See if you're getting here, I don't know if you're
Speaker 1: putting the pieces together. You got a me guy as
Speaker 1: a teammate today. The last could close the window, sir,
Speaker 1: Oh the as soon as we go up. I gotta
Speaker 1: be comfortable. I paid for the seat for me. It's
Speaker 1: like we're all on this sea together. No one really
Speaker 1: wants to be sitting on this point when I get
Speaker 1: there as a team.
Speaker 3: When I reclined, there's there's there's probably a reason I'm
Speaker 3: doing it. It's not like I always recline every flight,
Speaker 3: and I just think to myself, like I just don't
Speaker 3: think twice about going by going back if I need to,
Speaker 3: if I need to recline, because the button is there
Speaker 3: for a reason. And like I just said, when you
Speaker 3: said the me guy thing, like when I put my
Speaker 3: legs up because I need the room, I don't like
Speaker 3: try to like hit it to where I need the
Speaker 3: space or let them know that I'll be putting my
Speaker 3: legs up. I just slowly if I make a little contact.
Speaker 3: That's trying to get myself comfortable with the space that
Speaker 3: I have. If I want to be a little bit
Speaker 3: more comfortable.
Speaker 1: Then you figure out they're that comfort you feel they
Speaker 1: got comfort. Plus you figure out to get yours the
Speaker 1: most plant way possible. What you figure out the best
Speaker 1: way to get yours the most plant way possible. Excuse me, sir,
Speaker 1: can you please put down that window? Everybody else in
Speaker 1: the fight it is probably like god, damn, he just
Speaker 1: asked me that. That's crazy. He turned back a plight
Speaker 1: way you do you?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Because I want it, but it ain't my jurisdiction. Brother,
Speaker 1: I want it, Listen, I want all the things you want.
Speaker 1: If I could just lay down on the fucking ground
Speaker 1: for the whole flight, that'd be great, but I don't
Speaker 1: do it because I didn't. Fucking I'm just making sure
Speaker 1: that Whilse has joined themselves too. He looks back at
Speaker 1: me during that, and I was like, what did you
Speaker 1: just do? And he starts telling me this whole story
Speaker 1: about him and his uncle and these kids. They go
Speaker 1: to Windy's and they get meals and he should have
Speaker 1: had fries, but he didn't have fry and the uncle's like, hey,

Speaker 1: got the six pack, the like he's a he's a bodybuilder.
Speaker 1: He's out there. Yeah that man, that's fucking But he's
Speaker 1: also a guy. You're like, hey, brother, if I'm trying
Speaker 1: to build some arms, like what kind of curl should
Speaker 1: I be doing? Like that's the guy, you're gonna probably ask, right,
Speaker 1: curls should push ups the day you do.
Speaker 3: I can't stop thinking about this. Well done, stag go ahead. Now,
Speaker 3: I'm just saying I just can't stop thinking about it,
Speaker 3: like you wouldn't. But here's what I will, like. I
Speaker 3: wouldn't let me think how i'd handle it. I would
Speaker 3: wait for the waiter waitress to come over and probably
Speaker 3: be like, how you enjoying your meal?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: And I think that's when I take my opportunity to
Speaker 3: be like, I'm absolutely terrified to tell you that it's
Speaker 3: a little overcooked. I'm gonna eat this, but I don't
Speaker 3: want to make your job any harder by sending this
Speaker 3: thing back. No, dude, I'm petrified, but like it tastes good,
Speaker 3: it tastes solid. And then however and then no, no,
Speaker 3: there'd be no however. I would let them say, oh no,
Speaker 3: it's not a hassle, like I will easily take you
Speaker 3: bet no, no, no, no, please no. And then as
Speaker 3: they're like trying to take the play up back, look,
Speaker 3: if if you insist anybody listen, no shot, listen, no,
Speaker 3: no problem at all, we will We'll do another one.
Speaker 1: And then I bet the manager probably come up, but hey,
Speaker 1: we'll camp this for you. Yeah, that that I've seen
Speaker 1: that happen in front of me. Hey, let's get that
Speaker 1: steak for you. We're gonna pay for that steak. And
Speaker 1: you look at them, and you look at their victory,
Speaker 1: but to me, it's at what cost you, just cause
Speaker 1: that wastress a whole bunch of anxiety. The chef's gonna
Speaker 1: be a little pissed off. The managers probably gonna say
Speaker 1: something with the chef. Now he's he's already been on
Speaker 1: the rocks all right, and he's probably his home life
Speaker 1: isn't going well either that Now things are just dominoing effect.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about their people, the long waist right, looking
Speaker 1: short term.
Speaker 3: Right right, But here you're not. You weren't listening to
Speaker 3: what I was saying. I didn't say nothing. The option
Speaker 3: was there to leave it.
Speaker 6: I was like, I'm not.
Speaker 1: It's the option part. Yeah, you know what they're gonna
Speaker 1: do right by you? Yeah, yeah, exact thinking about that
Speaker 1: twenty percent which we're gonna make your Yeah, I'm not exactly.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make your job harder. I'm gonna eat this. This,
Speaker 1: This still tastes good.
Speaker 3: Are you twenty percent guy tip, Yeah, yeah, at least
Speaker 3: at least Yeah, used to be a fucking scumbag.
Speaker 1: One dollar and round it up to the next dollar. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean when when you're balling on a budget like that,
Speaker 1: that's what you gotta do. I say, the bill is
Speaker 1: like forty three and in twelve. Yeah, giving back.
Speaker 3: Now I'm giving a dollar. I'm giving a dollar and
Speaker 3: uh yeah, a dollar and eighty eight cents.
Speaker 1: Hey, By the way, that coffee shop I told you
Speaker 1: about where I hundred pieced them, well, the well is
Speaker 1: where it was. It was like four dollars and thirty
Speaker 1: cents for that coffee. But I did the They have
Speaker 1: a tip, it's like one dollars, three dollars, five dollars.
Speaker 1: You know, they have the little thing they spin it around.
Speaker 1: I hit it with the five dollars. Let them know.
Speaker 4: I do.
Speaker 1: Got a problem every now and then with that little
Speaker 1: fucking screen. Yeah, because it it's because it used to
Speaker 1: be eighteen or fifteen, eighteen twenty, and now it's eighteen
Speaker 1: twenty or eighteen twenty three, twenty five or even twenty.
Speaker 3: Twenty one, and then whatever the last one is. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I try to get you over that twenty.
Speaker 1: I go to that last one.
Speaker 3: But a lot of these places didn't start doing the
Speaker 3: hey charge for a tip before the service happened. Now
Speaker 3: they're just everybody's flipping around and they're charging. You know,
Speaker 3: they're asking for a lot more of a tip. Like
Speaker 3: even you go to the spous this one dollar, three dollars,
Speaker 3: five dollars. They didn't used to have that at all
Speaker 3: ever since the whole COVID thing, and you were supporting
Speaker 3: small businesses, and every restaurant was doing it because everybody's
Speaker 3: trying to help everybody stay in business at that point.
Speaker 3: But even after that, all the business owners know like, hey,
Speaker 3: keep that on there, let's raise it another percentage, yes.
Speaker 1: And so you you think they're trying to get you
Speaker 1: in that situation.
