WEBVTT - #99 - Danielle Bradbery

0:00:00.920 --> 0:00:04.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, welcome to episode of The Bobby Cast with

0:00:04.559 --> 0:00:08.959
<v Speaker 1>Danielle Bradberry. Hey, Danielle, I've never done one of these

0:00:09.480 --> 0:00:12.240
<v Speaker 1>on a weekend or in the daytime really, so it's

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:14.880
<v Speaker 1>completely out of my natural element because we usually do

0:00:14.920 --> 0:00:17.200
<v Speaker 1>the on the road every weekend and then we usually

0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:19.320
<v Speaker 1>do these in the evening. People just come over to

0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:22.279
<v Speaker 1>the house and but because of the great snowstorm of

0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 1>we had to postpone this. Yes, it's it's summertime outside

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 1>because it's like fifty degrees. I know. These weather changes

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 1>are driving me crazy, are you. I lived in Texas

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>for the past fourteen years before I moved here, so

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 1>winter to me is I'm from Texas. Any winners painful? Yes? Yeah,

0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 1>even if it's like fifty degrees, I'm like, okay, this

0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 1>is cold. Today it was. I went to yoga today

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:54.200
<v Speaker 1>and I was in a like a sleeveless shirt and

0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:57.920
<v Speaker 1>I braved it because I'm so happy it was five degrees.

0:00:58.760 --> 0:01:03.680
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this feels so I'm glad I'm here

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>A lot to talk about. Yes, um, we're just start Well,

0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>you just came from Wisconsin. We were just talking about

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 1>that before we went on. It's your first showback where

0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>you're singing again. Yeah, and I forgot how to sing

0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:22.600
<v Speaker 1>and everything. It was a little rusty on the lyrics. Yeah,

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 1>on the lyrics. So you did what's called a guitar pool,

0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:27.479
<v Speaker 1>which I think is interesting because radio stations do these

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:35.320
<v Speaker 1>guitar pools. I'll have you explain what a guitar pool is, okay, Um, Well, example,

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.680
<v Speaker 1>last night, I was the only girl, which I thought

0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:41.760
<v Speaker 1>was cool. Um, And you're on stage with about four

0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:44.320
<v Speaker 1>or five other artists and y'all are all up there

0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>and I'll get to talk about stories, go back and forth,

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>and then y'all each sing one song and then you'll

0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>go around and Um, you sing to like five or

0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 1>six songs each, and I I those are my favorite

0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.160
<v Speaker 1>personally because you just get to hang out with everybody

0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>and kind of sit back after one song instead of

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 1>going song after another and just kind of listen to them,

0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.120
<v Speaker 1>and you hear songs that you haven't heard before from

0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:09.960
<v Speaker 1>other artists. And I think it's really cool. Who was

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>on with you last night, Um Walcome McGuire, McGuire, Luke Holmbs,

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Davis, and Um Morgan Wallen. They're all really great

0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 1>that Luke he's like, he's like you, it's unsuspected greatness.

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>And I was talking with Dan from Dan and Shay

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 1>a couple of days ago, and with those guys, you know,

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.080
<v Speaker 1>if someone has a deal, they're going to be at

0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.960
<v Speaker 1>least certain good, because you really don't get signed if

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 1>you're terrible. So there's this expectation. And but then there

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.639
<v Speaker 1>are certain people that even though you know they're good,

0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 1>they come in and they still blow you away. And

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I put Dan and Shay into that category, and I

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 1>put you into the category because even though we know

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:51.200
<v Speaker 1>you're good, when you guys start singing, you're like, oh,

0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, it's the best. Luke Holmbs is on there too,

0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>because when he starts singing, it's violent. Oh my god,

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>it's in your face. On day morning, you recoiled because

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:09.920
<v Speaker 1>it's so hard. It's like, oh yeah, Well, what's funny

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:13.200
<v Speaker 1>is because when you're up there, all the artists are

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.720
<v Speaker 1>in front, obviously, and then you have either your guitar

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 1>player your drummer which is on a cone and I

0:03:19.200 --> 0:03:24.360
<v Speaker 1>have Yes and I have my guitar player and my

0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 1>drummer um back there. And I think I did one

0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>of those things with Luke the same area like before

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 1>the New Year, and my drummer was in front of

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:40.920
<v Speaker 1>his uh wedge, which is like the big speaker. He said,

0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I he is amazing, but he blew me out of

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 1>my chair and goes from zero to sixty faster than yes,

0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 1>where you are a piercinger and one of the best,

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:56.880
<v Speaker 1>but you go like an airplane taken off and when

0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:59.480
<v Speaker 1>you hit the speed, you're nailing it. Luke, it's like

0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>a freaking Ferrari. Just it scared us in the studio

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:07.160
<v Speaker 1>last time. He's saying, oh, I bet in there because

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 1>he had and I've known Luke for a long time. Yeah,

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 1>he goes count me down and he goes one, two one.

0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, scared the crap out of all of us.

0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god. When you do one of those where

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:24.360
<v Speaker 1>you're sitting around with those people, does it matter to you?

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>What what are you going? Um? Not really. I just

0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>turned around to my players and be like, what do

0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:32.200
<v Speaker 1>y'all feeling? And we kind of I kind of think

0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 1>about my single and where that goes, and sometimes I

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:39.039
<v Speaker 1>go off of who the artist before me sang, or

0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>if it was like a slow song at beat, so

0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I go off of those things. But not necessarily like

0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 1>each song or anything. But where do you put the

0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>single in the mix? I do it like right in

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 1>the middle. Um, like last night, I think we did

0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 1>five and I did it like the third song in

0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 1>So what do you start with when you're doing a show?

0:04:57.800 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Like what you start with last night? I started with

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:03.039
<v Speaker 1>it stay Mad, So it's like more of an upbeat song.

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.680
<v Speaker 1>So what'd you close with? A close with worth It? Yeah,

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:18.480
<v Speaker 1>that was a big one. Yeah, that's a good When

0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.760
<v Speaker 1>I hear this one on satellite too, as we're playing Sway,

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>they're playing worth It, which is a cool thing now

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.279
<v Speaker 1>you can get multiple songs played at different times. Yeah,

0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 1>it's been really cool to see, I mean fans post

0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:32.640
<v Speaker 1>that and then obviously hear it sometimes. It's been crazy. Yeah,

0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 1>that's a good one. Way to the lifted. This was

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.159
<v Speaker 1>the first one when you came back, right, the first

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:43.000
<v Speaker 1>first song when you were like, hey here I come again. Yes,

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:48.080
<v Speaker 1>was the Hello I'm back. What was the conversation that

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:52.680
<v Speaker 1>led to this song being the first song? Well, it's

0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of funny because Way was actually not the wasn't

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:58.600
<v Speaker 1>going to be the first single. It was going to

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.680
<v Speaker 1>be the first lead track of the new album, and

0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:06.280
<v Speaker 1>that's wh which is a difference. Um, And that's what

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:09.279
<v Speaker 1>we did. We we released it was like a new

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.160
<v Speaker 1>first track off of the new the new record, can't

0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 1>wait for to show you all more and all that stuff. Well,

0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>one day, I think it was during the c m

0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:21.640
<v Speaker 1>A fest, I got thrown in a meeting, um, right

0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.599
<v Speaker 1>after the celebrity softball game. Um, that I think we

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:28.720
<v Speaker 1>played together. And I it was with I mean the

0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 1>label and and everybody can think of. I was like, okay,

0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm all sweaty, sorry guys. I literally went from the

0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:38.440
<v Speaker 1>softball game over to the label, went yes, and we

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:43.080
<v Speaker 1>talked about I mean radio tour again and Swayby and

0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:45.320
<v Speaker 1>the new single, and it was just kind of like bam,

0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:48.159
<v Speaker 1>bam bam. And I think they had already talked about it,

0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.719
<v Speaker 1>kind of made that decision and saw it doing really well,

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:55.720
<v Speaker 1>better than we expected as not even a single. So

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.800
<v Speaker 1>um yeah, they were like, yeah, saying, how did you

0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:00.560
<v Speaker 1>feel that? Did you have your hearts on something else

0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:03.240
<v Speaker 1>to start as the first thing? Goal? Um, I honestly did.

0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Worth It has been my favorite always, um, and I

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:12.080
<v Speaker 1>think I picked that when I was putting the album together. Um,

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>and worth. It kind of stuck with me always, and

0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.760
<v Speaker 1>there's other songs on there that are my favorites too,

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 1>but Sway was and the more I thought about it,

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Sway it was kind of the easy going, just kind

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.760
<v Speaker 1>of I guess, nice song to to start out the

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:31.280
<v Speaker 1>new album since nobody, I mean everybody has hasn't heard

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 1>anything for me in about four or five years, which

0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:36.960
<v Speaker 1>is interesting to me because as I was coming into

0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the format and moving to Nashville, that was kind of

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:42.520
<v Speaker 1>the last that you and I saw of each other.

0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Then you disappeared and I don't go around to I

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:48.280
<v Speaker 1>don't ever go out, but still you see people at

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:53.080
<v Speaker 1>industry events. But you disappeared. You disappeared, you were gone,

0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 1>which was a cool thing to do. But I I

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 1>start thinking, that's gotta be tough when you're right in

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:01.400
<v Speaker 1>the middle of it, and then and you consciously go,

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting out of it. Yeah, it is tough witness relocation.

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:12.520
<v Speaker 1>So what what was the that that mindset behind that?

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:16.920
<v Speaker 1>You know? Um, I think a big part of the

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:22.920
<v Speaker 1>break was coming off of the voice and being so young,

0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 1>and I feel like a broken record, but it is

0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.280
<v Speaker 1>so true. I was very young and personally I did

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.400
<v Speaker 1>not know what the heck was going. I couldn't tell

0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:32.959
<v Speaker 1>you anything about the music business. I still couldn't tell

0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>you half of it. But I mean then I had

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:37.760
<v Speaker 1>my mom going around with me all the time because

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 1>I was so young. And after the show, I I mean,

0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:46.120
<v Speaker 1>I got this record put together and I had to

0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.959
<v Speaker 1>pick twelve songs and I didn't write at all. I

0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.200
<v Speaker 1>couldn't tell you how to do that even back then,

0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:54.280
<v Speaker 1>and I was just listening to these songs in the

0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:56.880
<v Speaker 1>hotel room of wherever I was. I was kind of

0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:59.920
<v Speaker 1>getting frustrated because I didn't know. I didn't like some songs,

0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and I liked more ones more than other, but I mean,

0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 1>it was just a mess. And finally I picked twelve

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 1>and we came out with my debut album and so

0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.959
<v Speaker 1>and then after that it was like bam, bam bam.

0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Everything happened all at once, and so I never really

0:09:18.120 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>got that moment of Okay, this is Danielle Bradberry and

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.160
<v Speaker 1>this is what I want to sing, and I'm a

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:27.000
<v Speaker 1>songwriter and all that. I didn't have that yet, and

0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 1>it was very much blonde girl, the voice country blonde girl,

0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:34.720
<v Speaker 1>and that's what everybody kind of looked at me as

0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:38.040
<v Speaker 1>and and a lot of them said, oh another voice winner,

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.959
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, you know, there's more to me than that, um,

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.959
<v Speaker 1>I think. And so the break was very much like, Okay,

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I need to really sit down for a second, off

0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.559
<v Speaker 1>off of this crazy ride that I've been on and

0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:54.880
<v Speaker 1>really figure out who is Danielle Bradberry and if I

0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.000
<v Speaker 1>am a songwriter or not. So I got into that.

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:03.640
<v Speaker 1>I was here Nashville maybe once or twice, and they

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.760
<v Speaker 1>ever see you? Yeah? Did you purposely not go to things?

0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 1>You know? Some of them I wanted to go, but

0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:12.760
<v Speaker 1>there wasn't really a purpose for me too, because I

0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:16.199
<v Speaker 1>didn't have any music out or anything. Um, but I

0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:22.120
<v Speaker 1>was just at home. I wasn't doing anything, but I

0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:24.760
<v Speaker 1>mean I was. Did you want to go even just

0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:30.400
<v Speaker 1>sing and keep the instrument sharp? Yeah? And you couldn't?

0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Like that had to be so frustrating. It was very frustrating.

0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I won't lie, UM. And you know we were I

0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:41.280
<v Speaker 1>was going into my management's office almost every week, and

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:44.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, we were talking about the goal and and

0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.440
<v Speaker 1>what we needed to do. I was writing a lot.

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 1>And that's a big thing that I got into, um

0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:52.800
<v Speaker 1>in that break and That's what I did most of

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:56.319
<v Speaker 1>the time, and and I co wrote a lot. I

0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:58.960
<v Speaker 1>haven't written by myself yet, but I hopefully i'll get there.

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.760
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, it was just writing and then meetings, just

0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:05.040
<v Speaker 1>all the time because we were just trying to figure out,

0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:08.440
<v Speaker 1>and then we would do photo shoots and then um,

0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:11.440
<v Speaker 1>three months later, something would change and then we would

0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.280
<v Speaker 1>want to do another photo shoot. And just like, I

0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 1>was continuing to just grow. And then I get songs

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and we'd release like songs like friend Zone, and I'd

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 1>write so much, I mean more song. I thought that

0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Friends and Someone was really good by the way. I

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 1>thought it was really funky. It was different. It was.

0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:32.839
<v Speaker 1>But now that you said I don't have that, I

0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>do have it. I don't know, like, how about that?

0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Are you doing just fun? I know this. I don't

0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:43.079
<v Speaker 1>even know what what you guys tried to do with this,

0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:48.520
<v Speaker 1>but I liked it. And it started off, God, why

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:49.960
<v Speaker 1>do you look? Why do you look at this guy

0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:54.080
<v Speaker 1>when this line plays? I just it was so random?

0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that the beauty of it? Though? Yeah? Do you

0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:01.400
<v Speaker 1>ever play this live? Um? Every now and then? I

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:03.040
<v Speaker 1>used to play it a lot in my like full

0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:07.199
<v Speaker 1>band shows. Um, but that song, it was kind of like,

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:09.880
<v Speaker 1>since I haven't put anything out, we were like, let's

0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:12.520
<v Speaker 1>just put something out, like we need something. I don't

0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:16.600
<v Speaker 1>want my fans to get so just crazy and annoyed

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:18.720
<v Speaker 1>because they were, And I was like, I don't blame

0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.880
<v Speaker 1>you all. Did you go into hiding on hiding? Uh?

0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:27.960
<v Speaker 1>But did you go into on social media hiding? Uh? No? Yeah? Yeah,

0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:31.360
<v Speaker 1>and I did. Um, I did the we me and

0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.560
<v Speaker 1>my management kind of had this idea of putting out

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.040
<v Speaker 1>cover videos, um, just to keep I mean again the

0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:41.440
<v Speaker 1>fans entertained, and I wanted them to know like I'm

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:44.360
<v Speaker 1>still here, but I'm I'm working on some things and

0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:46.880
<v Speaker 1>I'll put out some stuff for you all to listen

0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.680
<v Speaker 1>to in the meantime. So I did these these cover

0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:53.160
<v Speaker 1>videos um for a while, and then we released friend

0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Zone and this really fun video UM with friend Zone,

0:12:57.200 --> 0:13:00.880
<v Speaker 1>and then I took another break. How long was that?

0:13:01.559 --> 0:13:05.400
<v Speaker 1>It was like, I don't know, probably another year but

0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:09.319
<v Speaker 1>um yeah. But I mean underneath all of that, I

0:13:09.360 --> 0:13:12.400
<v Speaker 1>was writing songs that I had got for this new

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:15.920
<v Speaker 1>album that I released, So sway, I had written like

0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:20.360
<v Speaker 1>two years ago from when I released the album. So

0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 1>I had these songs, and we knew that we were

0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 1>getting ready to do either an eapier album, like we're

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:30.560
<v Speaker 1>ready for anything. Um and again I was frustrated. So

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.800
<v Speaker 1>I was like, God, I just I want to I

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:35.360
<v Speaker 1>want to get out there again. Did they out a

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:40.120
<v Speaker 1>bunch of times? No? No, it was more I wouldn't

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.760
<v Speaker 1>get mad or anything. It was more of just I

0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:45.439
<v Speaker 1>would text my management or my day to day manager

0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:48.360
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of the night or something and be like, okay,

0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:51.080
<v Speaker 1>so like, what's next? Do you all know anything? I

0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:53.839
<v Speaker 1>don't like, is there anything new? It was just the

0:13:54.000 --> 0:14:00.920
<v Speaker 1>questions all the time. Brunch, my eating schedules different than

0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:02.400
<v Speaker 1>the normal human since I wake up at three in

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:05.760
<v Speaker 1>the morning. My yeah, I had to do that show.

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>I have to wake up at three to go on

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:11.160
<v Speaker 1>at five because that's sixth Eastern. We start sixth Eastern

0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:14.400
<v Speaker 1>bosson d C. But so I gotta I was doing

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 1>something with Thomas. We were doing this video thing for

0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Thomas and it wasn't I hard, it was Thomas. He said, hey,

0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:22.720
<v Speaker 1>would you mind filming this with me? That shure. So

0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I met with Virginia and she was like, wait till

0:14:25.400 --> 0:14:27.720
<v Speaker 1>you hear Danielle's music. I was like whatever, whatever, whatever,

0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:31.040
<v Speaker 1>you know this is before She's like no, no, no no, no,

0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:34.800
<v Speaker 1>she's been locked away, she's been riding, and you're gonna

0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and you're gonna like, Okay, I get it, you're you know,

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 1>positioning your artists. Don't do this, you know we were.

0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:46.160
<v Speaker 1>But I told her probably six months later, like you're right,

0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:50.240
<v Speaker 1>it's really good. Yeah, it was really good. And so

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 1>was she the one that was telling you and controlling

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:58.000
<v Speaker 1>your emotions like relax. Um. She was one of them. Uh,

0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:01.120
<v Speaker 1>And I'm very lucky to have my management. It's like

0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:03.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of like an all girl team, and it's Virginia

0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:07.880
<v Speaker 1>my day to day, Samantha UM and my digital girl Nicole,

0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:11.240
<v Speaker 1>and I literally I went to all three of them

0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:14.120
<v Speaker 1>probably the same amount. And you know, Virginia would text

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:16.280
<v Speaker 1>me or call me every now and then to update

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:20.400
<v Speaker 1>me on whatever she have been dealing with, UM with everything,

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and and then Samantha would call me, and then Nicole

0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:24.760
<v Speaker 1>is like, I think we should do this piece on

0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Instagram and you know the cover videos she was a

0:15:28.120 --> 0:15:31.800
<v Speaker 1>big part of and UM, they are always working. So

0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Virginia definitely called me and try to be like, you know,

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.240
<v Speaker 1>we're almost there. She never even teed me up with

0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Thomas stuff ever in the history of really ever what

0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:45.120
<v Speaker 1>are ever? But she teed me up and he was like,

0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:46.600
<v Speaker 1>it's coming and I don't do this, but I'm just

0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:48.400
<v Speaker 1>telling you it's gonna be. I'm like, okay, I'll roll

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 1>myne okay, okay, we'll see. Like I like, Dania was

0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.040
<v Speaker 1>really nice, but well she's like, no, trust me. I

0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:57.040
<v Speaker 1>was like, yeah, because how you get that so much

0:15:57.080 --> 0:16:00.080
<v Speaker 1>so that she never does it? Nobody really does it

0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:02.360
<v Speaker 1>to me anymore if they have worked with me in

0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:04.080
<v Speaker 1>the past, because I just don't listen to things. Early.

0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Everyone has something that's awesome, even if it's not. Everyone's again,

0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:13.880
<v Speaker 1>oh you just wait. But it was the only time

0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:18.280
<v Speaker 1>she had ever said just wait, and so yeah, she

0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:20.760
<v Speaker 1>was fighting for you early. Let me talk about Blue

<v Speaker 1>go home, did she ever go let me do your hair.

0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:41.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, speaking of that. Literally this last Christmas and

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.040
<v Speaker 1>New Years, I was home for Christmas and New Years,

0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:48.000
<v Speaker 1>which was so nice. Um. And where that is is

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:52.640
<v Speaker 1>like a little bit outside of Houston and Cypress, and

0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:55.720
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, all my family is still there. Uh. And

0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:58.720
<v Speaker 1>my mom she still cuts I mean, my brother's hair,

0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:02.120
<v Speaker 1>my stepdad. And when me and my sister come in town,

0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:06.600
<v Speaker 1>she's like, came here, like, let me fix this. Um.

0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:09.840
<v Speaker 1>And when I went back home, I went to go

0:18:09.880 --> 0:18:12.160
<v Speaker 1>get my hair colored and she was like, Okay, I'm

0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:14.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna I'm gonna do something because this is not right.

0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:18.120
<v Speaker 1>She always And then I thought about cutting my hair

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>short the other night and I was like, Mom, I

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:23.720
<v Speaker 1>had to get approval from you because I'll feel bad

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:26.480
<v Speaker 1>if I if I just do it without your approval.

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:29.200
<v Speaker 1>She's like, You're gonna regret it. And I'm like, God,

0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:32.640
<v Speaker 1>you made me feel bad. So she she definitely takes control.

0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Is good. She's very good. You trust her with your hair,

0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I really do. She does really good. And I don't

0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:44.760
<v Speaker 1>even have to pay or anything. You have a stylus

0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:46.880
<v Speaker 1>here in town. I do, and I have to tell

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:50.720
<v Speaker 1>your mom, this is who it is. Yeah, it makes

0:18:50.720 --> 0:18:54.359
<v Speaker 1>her feel better. Oh yeah yeah. And then she'll see

0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:56.919
<v Speaker 1>pictures and she's like, Okay, it's time to get your

0:18:56.920 --> 0:19:00.880
<v Speaker 1>hair done. I'm like, oh, thanks, take your hair through Instagram.

0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:03.479
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, oh yeah. She's like, hey, saw this picture.

0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:06.560
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of looking weird, like the color or the

0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:10.159
<v Speaker 1>cut and so. But she she's awesome and I'm not biased.

0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:12.600
<v Speaker 1>She's really great. You are biased, but she can still

0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:16.240
<v Speaker 1>be great. Yes, what if she call you, like, did

0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:19.639
<v Speaker 1>you call you Danielle? Yeah, a lot of syllables for

0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:22.240
<v Speaker 1>a mom and a daughter there. Yeah, she let me

0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:27.040
<v Speaker 1>think call you let me see She's like, she's oh, god,

0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:29.680
<v Speaker 1>doing a pressure. If she calls you the phone rings,

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:35.359
<v Speaker 1>she's like Hi, she's I don't know, God, I do

0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:39.600
<v Speaker 1>it so good with the pressure. No, but she calls

0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:43.879
<v Speaker 1>me boo. And she tries to be funny because I

0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:45.879
<v Speaker 1>have a fourteen year old brother and he's in the

0:19:45.960 --> 0:19:49.159
<v Speaker 1>stage of the bay and so she's like, you're my

0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:53.439
<v Speaker 1>little bay. I'm like, Mom, don't do that. Does your

0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:56.879
<v Speaker 1>brother think you're cool? I hope so I think he's cool.

0:19:57.000 --> 0:19:59.280
<v Speaker 1>Does he tell you that is it cool that you're

0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:02.160
<v Speaker 1>his older sister to his fourteen year old friends. Um,

0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:05.840
<v Speaker 1>you know what, he actually doesn't go around saying anything.

0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:10.160
<v Speaker 1>He prefers not to say anything because they know they do.

0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:13.880
<v Speaker 1>They do, but he doesn't really like to have full

0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:17.440
<v Speaker 1>conversations about it to his friends. He's he's in football

0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:20.880
<v Speaker 1>and and all that stuff, and he just and I've

0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:23.800
<v Speaker 1>asked him for us. So does it get annoying that?

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:26.879
<v Speaker 1>I mean, how do you feel about it? He's like no,

0:20:27.720 --> 0:20:30.479
<v Speaker 1>but I just I don't like when girls know you

0:20:30.560 --> 0:20:32.639
<v Speaker 1>because I want to get I want to get the

0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:36.560
<v Speaker 1>girls myself. Like I get that. I get that. Man,

0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:39.720
<v Speaker 1>I wish I would have had an older sister because

0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:43.080
<v Speaker 1>they're not gonna got girls and fourteen, he must be

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:46.680
<v Speaker 1>pretty popular then if that's a setback to him. Yeah,

0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:49.760
<v Speaker 1>he's he's pretty well known. He's a cool he's a

0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:54.359
<v Speaker 1>cool dude. He's he's fourteen and he's six three bigger

0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:57.320
<v Speaker 1>than I am. That's thirteen, shoe. He's a big dude.

0:20:58.160 --> 0:21:01.679
<v Speaker 1>Wow is your but you're the you're tiny. I know

0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:05.439
<v Speaker 1>my stepdad, he's my half brother, and so my stepdad

0:21:05.560 --> 0:21:08.159
<v Speaker 1>is six three himself, and he's a big he was

0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:11.600
<v Speaker 1>in football, baseball, all the all the things, and so

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:15.840
<v Speaker 1>My brother is in football and he's he's a big guy.

0:21:16.080 --> 0:21:17.480
<v Speaker 1>So when I go home and hang out with him,

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:18.960
<v Speaker 1>and I feel like I'm hanging out with somebody my

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.840
<v Speaker 1>age and we listen to he we love rap music,

0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:24.399
<v Speaker 1>and so he listens to Y mean, he shows me

0:21:24.480 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 1>all these new rap music that's he's found. He's like

0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Danielle when you when's the next time you're coming home?

0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:32.359
<v Speaker 1>Because he loves to drive around in the car and

0:21:32.520 --> 0:21:36.600
<v Speaker 1>listen to music. So I love that. I think for

0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:39.080
<v Speaker 1>in boxing, they have something that that they say, you know,

0:21:39.080 --> 0:21:41.840
<v Speaker 1>pound for pound fighters. He familiar with the term regardless

0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:45.440
<v Speaker 1>of how small or big you are. Obviously the four

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:48.439
<v Speaker 1>ft nine guys not gonna beat up the seven ft guy,

0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:50.919
<v Speaker 1>but they go who's the best pound? And I was

0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:53.800
<v Speaker 1>thinking about this before he came over. I mean, I

0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:58.160
<v Speaker 1>think you're up there with the Stapleton's you. It's it's

0:21:58.200 --> 0:22:01.000
<v Speaker 1>this little group of the one percent of the one

0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:05.920
<v Speaker 1>percent vocalists. It's you. It's Chris Stapleton, it's Lauren Elena,

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:08.800
<v Speaker 1>it's and all the all of those guys with the

0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:11.680
<v Speaker 1>pound for pound like the best singers. And what's surprising

0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:14.760
<v Speaker 1>is about you. We're like you're so small. Did you

0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:18.719
<v Speaker 1>have any crazy vocal training? That big voice always live

0:22:18.760 --> 0:22:24.000
<v Speaker 1>in you? An age eleven, I feel like I've always

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:27.480
<v Speaker 1>had a big voice, but that's not staying like, oh,

0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:29.840
<v Speaker 1>I can hit all these notes. But when I was little,

0:22:30.000 --> 0:22:33.879
<v Speaker 1>my mom always says and my dad they're like, when

0:22:33.960 --> 0:22:37.000
<v Speaker 1>every time we'd take you in a restaurant, you'd scream,

0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:40.080
<v Speaker 1>and that's how we do. You could just wail, and

0:22:40.119 --> 0:22:44.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh god, um, but I don't know. When

0:22:44.520 --> 0:22:47.920
<v Speaker 1>did you start singing and it was, well, I'm actually

0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:50.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty good at this because I'm sure you sang forever.

0:22:50.840 --> 0:22:52.679
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's sang it four or five years old, but we

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:56.600
<v Speaker 1>weren't all good. I'm still not good. But when did

0:22:56.600 --> 0:22:58.680
<v Speaker 1>you start singing and you thought, Okay, I'm actually better

0:22:58.720 --> 0:23:02.960
<v Speaker 1>than people around me? Um. I you know, I've never

0:23:03.040 --> 0:23:05.960
<v Speaker 1>been the type to be like, Okay, yeah, I'm good.

0:23:06.000 --> 0:23:09.520
<v Speaker 1>But you can tell by people's reaction even but even

0:23:09.560 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 1>it's not in yours. But you're looking at people and

0:23:11.840 --> 0:23:14.359
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Smith sings and they're like, but you're singing, and

0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:18.520
<v Speaker 1>they're like, oh my god, when did that start happening? Um?

0:23:18.520 --> 0:23:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh man? Because I did the whole singing in my

0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:24.760
<v Speaker 1>room thing for a long time before the show, and

0:23:24.800 --> 0:23:27.880
<v Speaker 1>that's what I preferred because I was very shy, and

0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I could go on forever about that because I was

0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:32.560
<v Speaker 1>probably the shyest person you ever meet. It was a

0:23:32.640 --> 0:23:39.600
<v Speaker 1>struggle to sing. And yeah, um, I remember like family events,

0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:41.440
<v Speaker 1>I would I couldn't even sing in front of my

0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:44.240
<v Speaker 1>family to save my life. Isn't it harder though? To sing?

0:23:44.640 --> 0:23:46.720
<v Speaker 1>Because I'll relate this to doing comedy. I would never

0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:48.159
<v Speaker 1>want to tell jokes in front of five people, but

0:23:48.200 --> 0:23:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I can do it in front of two thousand, no problem. Yeah,

0:23:50.880 --> 0:23:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you're right. Yeah, I feel that way too. You don't

0:23:53.760 --> 0:23:55.879
<v Speaker 1>want to it's weird to sing in front of four people,

0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:59.720
<v Speaker 1>but put there. Yeah, and I'm fine because it's it's

0:23:59.760 --> 0:24:01.840
<v Speaker 1>not that one on one pressure. You're just singing to

0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:04.639
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of heads. Yes. So didn get easier as

0:24:04.640 --> 0:24:07.880
<v Speaker 1>the crowds got bigger than a little bit, honestly, And

0:24:08.320 --> 0:24:13.040
<v Speaker 1>that's weird that how that is. But it got so

0:24:13.080 --> 0:24:15.639
<v Speaker 1>bad that I'd have to either go under a table,

0:24:16.520 --> 0:24:20.840
<v Speaker 1>turn my back in a corner, like to family or friends. Um,

0:24:20.880 --> 0:24:23.200
<v Speaker 1>my friends would ask me to sing a lot, and

0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:26.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, no, I y'all are too close. You'll need

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:29.320
<v Speaker 1>to be out there and lights on y'all, lights on me,

0:24:29.400 --> 0:24:33.000
<v Speaker 1>so I can't see y'all. Um, But that's what police

0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:35.160
<v Speaker 1>do the criminals. They put the light right in their

0:24:35.200 --> 0:24:40.080
<v Speaker 1>face so they can't see anything around them. Yeah, but

0:24:40.640 --> 0:24:43.440
<v Speaker 1>oh gosh, I don't know. Then, why in the world

0:24:43.440 --> 0:24:46.359
<v Speaker 1>would you go sing on a TV show. It's my mother.

0:24:46.760 --> 0:24:49.879
<v Speaker 1>She signed me up without me knowing. But again, you

0:24:49.920 --> 0:24:52.199
<v Speaker 1>have to go do it, I know. And it was

0:24:52.240 --> 0:24:56.719
<v Speaker 1>a struggle, which not many people know, um because I

0:24:57.560 --> 0:25:00.680
<v Speaker 1>so she said, I want you to, like, I print

0:25:00.720 --> 0:25:03.520
<v Speaker 1>out their certificate and that's easy. Anybody could go online

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:05.360
<v Speaker 1>and it's a Voice dot com and you can print

0:25:05.359 --> 0:25:08.479
<v Speaker 1>out your little certificate and that's what you take to

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 1>the audition. And she did that and I was like wait,

0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.399
<v Speaker 1>and I got mad at her because it was that

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:20.080
<v Speaker 1>fear that those butterflies and everything, um and nerves. So

0:25:20.119 --> 0:25:21.920
<v Speaker 1>I was like, no, like, I don't want to do that.

0:25:21.920 --> 0:25:23.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do it. And I've always watched

0:25:23.760 --> 0:25:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the Voice like I've I've always been a big fan

0:25:26.119 --> 0:25:29.879
<v Speaker 1>of Blake Shelton and and everybody on there. And she

0:25:30.040 --> 0:25:32.200
<v Speaker 1>was like, we're going to drive to Dallas and it's

0:25:32.200 --> 0:25:35.720
<v Speaker 1>like about four hours from where we were, and I

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:39.560
<v Speaker 1>was like, I think I cried. It was the longest drive,

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:42.840
<v Speaker 1>the longest four hours. It was the longest four hours

0:25:42.840 --> 0:25:45.800
<v Speaker 1>of my life. And you go to the cycle twenty times. Okay,

0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll do it. No, I don't want to do it. Yes, yeah,

0:25:48.119 --> 0:25:51.359
<v Speaker 1>And I went through that in the middle of auditions

0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:54.680
<v Speaker 1>because there's three auditions before the tv l A part,

0:25:55.560 --> 0:25:58.160
<v Speaker 1>and which I didn't know. I was just learning everything

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:01.359
<v Speaker 1>step by step. And so we get to Dallas and

0:26:01.400 --> 0:26:04.520
<v Speaker 1>it's so early in the morning and there we go

0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:07.040
<v Speaker 1>to this big convention center and the line is like

0:26:07.119 --> 0:26:10.280
<v Speaker 1>wrapped around the building and um, I think there was

0:26:10.400 --> 0:26:13.640
<v Speaker 1>six thousand people there. And you get in these rooms

0:26:14.080 --> 0:26:18.199
<v Speaker 1>and it's like ten people per room and there's like

0:26:18.400 --> 0:26:21.880
<v Speaker 1>five chairs, a little piece of tape. So intimidating. Are

0:26:21.880 --> 0:26:24.040
<v Speaker 1>people singing all the time around you, like warming up

0:26:24.040 --> 0:26:26.040
<v Speaker 1>all the time, all the time, all the time? Yeah, yeah,

0:26:26.040 --> 0:26:30.959
<v Speaker 1>there's like a big intimidating Um not really because for

0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:34.200
<v Speaker 1>me that whole process, I was like sing thing because

0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to hear people. But then they would ask me,

0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:39.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm like no, I'm fine. It was so weird and

0:26:39.400 --> 0:26:42.080
<v Speaker 1>so it was really cool hearing everybody and it didn't

0:26:42.080 --> 0:26:46.240
<v Speaker 1>really like affect me in any way at that point. Yes,

0:26:46.440 --> 0:26:49.679
<v Speaker 1>And I never thought to compete. I always It was

0:26:49.760 --> 0:26:52.439
<v Speaker 1>so crazy because when I did make it to l

0:26:52.480 --> 0:26:54.480
<v Speaker 1>a UM and we're all sitting in a room and

0:26:54.520 --> 0:26:56.600
<v Speaker 1>the voice producers will come in and talk to us,

0:26:57.160 --> 0:26:59.879
<v Speaker 1>it was And I remember one of the producers saying,

0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I want everybody to look in this room because the

0:27:03.520 --> 0:27:05.800
<v Speaker 1>winner is sitting in this room right now. And I

0:27:05.840 --> 0:27:08.080
<v Speaker 1>was like looking around and I've already heard half of

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:10.479
<v Speaker 1>those people singing, and I was in my head. I

0:27:10.520 --> 0:27:12.639
<v Speaker 1>was picking who I thought was gonna win. I was like,

0:27:13.359 --> 0:27:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm on this show, come on now, be a little

0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:20.399
<v Speaker 1>bit more competitive. But I wasn't. I never was. It

0:27:20.520 --> 0:27:24.840
<v Speaker 1>was crazy. Even throughout the show. I just went on

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>stage sang and I supported my friends. I was like,

0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:29.919
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, she's going home. I don't want her to.

0:27:30.720 --> 0:27:33.800
<v Speaker 1>It was that And I don't know why. How about

0:27:33.800 --> 0:27:36.520
<v Speaker 1>the butterflies did they go? Did they subside as the

0:27:36.520 --> 0:27:39.560
<v Speaker 1>show was going? Um a little bit? Is it because

0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:41.520
<v Speaker 1>it was so busier because you were getting more acclimated

0:27:41.560 --> 0:27:43.720
<v Speaker 1>to it? Um? I think it was because it's so busy.

0:27:43.880 --> 0:27:46.960
<v Speaker 1>I think we were such on a schedule and I

0:27:46.960 --> 0:27:49.000
<v Speaker 1>I for me, it was I learned the song, or

0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:52.040
<v Speaker 1>however many songs I did. I went out there and

0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:54.719
<v Speaker 1>I would forget that song so I could know the

0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:58.159
<v Speaker 1>next one. It was like a weird um process. I

0:27:58.160 --> 0:28:01.160
<v Speaker 1>had to like teach my mind. It was weird. So

0:28:01.680 --> 0:28:04.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I it was just busy. I think

0:28:04.680 --> 0:28:07.439
<v Speaker 1>you have your hand up. You have three dots on

0:28:07.480 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 1>your finger. Is that tattoo or pin tattoo? What? What

0:28:10.960 --> 0:28:16.720
<v Speaker 1>are the three dots? Funny story, Actually it's a little

0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:19.760
<v Speaker 1>bit old. Um. I didn't know what it meant when

0:28:19.800 --> 0:28:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I got it, which is I'm not recommended. I also

0:28:23.480 --> 0:28:28.639
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't recommend that. But conte but I was in l

0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:33.760
<v Speaker 1>A and I was with my boyfriend and we were like,

0:28:34.040 --> 0:28:37.080
<v Speaker 1>it's eleven o'clock at night and we feel like getting tattoos.

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:39.760
<v Speaker 1>So we did and we went. I think we were

0:28:39.760 --> 0:28:43.600
<v Speaker 1>on Venice Beach and it was the only tattoo parlor

0:28:43.680 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>open on the whole thing. Fun fact about this tattoo parlor,

0:28:47.320 --> 0:28:51.479
<v Speaker 1>they did the Tiger of Connor McGregor, which is so

0:28:51.560 --> 0:28:55.880
<v Speaker 1>cool to me. I love contact stomach on the stomach. Yeah. Yeah,

0:28:56.320 --> 0:28:59.320
<v Speaker 1>and so we're like amazed by this time. I want

0:28:59.360 --> 0:29:00.960
<v Speaker 1>to come back to calm reckon when you finish that.

0:29:00.840 --> 0:29:03.800
<v Speaker 1>That's a really random thing. But continue on the tattoo story.

0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:09.360
<v Speaker 1>Go ahead, Okay, okay, But I actually saw Adam Levine's

0:29:09.440 --> 0:29:11.680
<v Speaker 1>wife have this on her fingers. She's like holding up

0:29:11.680 --> 0:29:14.360
<v Speaker 1>a glass of wine and Instagram or something. I thought

0:29:14.400 --> 0:29:17.080
<v Speaker 1>it was so cute. It's like almost like jewelry to me.

0:29:17.840 --> 0:29:20.120
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, if it's on her, it's nothing bad.

0:29:21.120 --> 0:29:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm just that's done. Do you know her to think

0:29:23.320 --> 0:29:26.360
<v Speaker 1>that through Instagram? I've met her a couple of times

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:31.840
<v Speaker 1>through Yes, and um, I got it, and I when

0:29:31.880 --> 0:29:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I went in there, they were they were laughing at me.

0:29:34.960 --> 0:29:37.360
<v Speaker 1>I was like, come on, just do it, and so

0:29:37.520 --> 0:29:39.800
<v Speaker 1>they did. And I looked it up and it's nothing bad.

0:29:39.800 --> 0:29:42.040
<v Speaker 1>It means one with the Earth, which is pretty cool.

0:29:42.440 --> 0:29:44.040
<v Speaker 1>But it's honest, it sounds like kind of like a

0:29:44.120 --> 0:29:50.320
<v Speaker 1>stoner thing. So I'm like, whatever, Yeah, okay, I've gotten

0:29:50.320 --> 0:29:53.360
<v Speaker 1>a stoner thing. But but it can really mean whatever

0:29:53.400 --> 0:29:56.200
<v Speaker 1>you want it. It's what nobody says. Yes, it could

0:29:56.200 --> 0:29:59.560
<v Speaker 1>be your brother, mom and stepdad. Yeah, it could be

0:29:59.600 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 1>your guitar, our, drum, vocal. It really you can make

0:30:02.600 --> 0:30:05.480
<v Speaker 1>up any story you want about Oh yeah, I haven't

0:30:05.600 --> 0:30:09.120
<v Speaker 1>had like a a solid thing yet because I don't

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:11.040
<v Speaker 1>want to say one with the earth all the time.

0:30:11.400 --> 0:30:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Because you can create your own narrative. I will just

0:30:14.360 --> 0:30:16.840
<v Speaker 1>stick to it because people are gonna ask more and more.

0:30:16.960 --> 0:30:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, people ask all the time. I have two

0:30:18.960 --> 0:30:21.720

0:31:07.800 --> 0:31:11.240

<v Speaker 1>get into it for sure. What have you done? You know,

0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:29.880
<v Speaker 1>classes and punched the bag classes? Um, I actually, uh

0:31:29.920 --> 0:31:33.560
<v Speaker 1>it was nice because Thomas Schretz trainer. His name is Larry.

0:31:34.400 --> 0:31:38.240
<v Speaker 1>He does title boxing here but on the road he

0:31:38.520 --> 0:31:41.560
<v Speaker 1>um has I got to like jump in on their

0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:44.200
<v Speaker 1>sessions and everything. That's cool. I know works out of

0:31:44.200 --> 0:31:46.880
<v Speaker 1>the gym that I work out. Yeah. Yeah, he's awesome.

0:31:47.240 --> 0:31:50.960
<v Speaker 1>You know Wilson f L guy. I've met him a

0:31:50.960 --> 0:31:55.640
<v Speaker 1>couple of times. He works huge, huge, huge, huge and

0:31:56.240 --> 0:31:59.320
<v Speaker 1>the nicest guy. Yeah, but you would never want to

0:31:59.360 --> 0:32:02.480
<v Speaker 1>cross him. He runs and it looks like one of

0:32:02.560 --> 0:32:05.920
<v Speaker 1>those old Baywatch shows whether where the pamliners is running

0:32:05.920 --> 0:32:08.920
<v Speaker 1>in slow motion. Pecks are so big and he gets

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:12.040
<v Speaker 1>the trailer boom book. I'm like, man, I would never

0:32:12.320 --> 0:32:15.600
<v Speaker 1>he's barrel. Oh my god, yeah he's He's a big dude.

0:32:15.680 --> 0:32:18.080
<v Speaker 1>I would see him walking around him like who is that?

0:32:18.400 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 1>Before I met him. Do you have security when you

0:32:20.680 --> 0:32:23.480
<v Speaker 1>go to Do you have about your own one person

0:32:23.520 --> 0:32:25.560
<v Speaker 1>that travels with you instead of having different people at

0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:28.560
<v Speaker 1>different places. Um? Not yet, but I want one. I

0:32:28.840 --> 0:32:31.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of want something like how Thomas has. Because Larry

0:32:31.600 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>is like half bodyguard, half trainer and I hopefully I'll

0:32:35.960 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 1>want somebody like that. Yeah, so I have one, and

0:32:39.640 --> 0:32:43.320
<v Speaker 1>there really is a trust to have. They always have

0:32:43.480 --> 0:32:47.880
<v Speaker 1>and my guys x D Agent. He's probably fifty four

0:32:47.960 --> 0:32:51.120
<v Speaker 1>years old and he did he like took over drug

0:32:51.200 --> 0:32:54.600
<v Speaker 1>boats and that's interesting. So not only do I trust

0:32:54.720 --> 0:32:58.760
<v Speaker 1>him and he's always watching, but he can kill somebody,

0:32:58.800 --> 0:33:00.640
<v Speaker 1>hide of body if he needs to. We need to

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:05.960
<v Speaker 1>just throwing that id out cool and he can do

0:33:06.080 --> 0:33:10.160
<v Speaker 1>it like people. He'll background check somebody, he'll find. I

0:33:10.240 --> 0:33:12.320
<v Speaker 1>got a problem with this, you know, because I have

0:33:12.480 --> 0:33:15.040
<v Speaker 1>I've had stalker issues and I thought attacked and I'm

0:33:15.080 --> 0:33:19.680
<v Speaker 1>sure you you're you're scared. Yeah, there's just too many

0:33:19.720 --> 0:33:22.280
<v Speaker 1>weirdos out there. It's a numbers game, and you have

0:33:22.440 --> 0:33:25.520
<v Speaker 1>so many fans, and I guess I realized that the

0:33:25.560 --> 0:33:28.080
<v Speaker 1>first time you came into our show, because you came in.

0:33:28.160 --> 0:33:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I remember you coming in and you crushed the way

0:33:29.960 --> 0:33:35.320
<v Speaker 1>and we saw it. It was way way early number two. Ono.

0:33:35.360 --> 0:33:38.280
<v Speaker 1>It was this really big moment. But it was just

0:33:38.480 --> 0:33:42.520
<v Speaker 1>like the floodgates of Daniel Bradberry fans had descended up

0:33:42.560 --> 0:33:45.800
<v Speaker 1>on my Twitter and I was like, what is happening here? Oh, Yeah,

0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Like I tell my management all the time, I'm like,

0:33:48.560 --> 0:33:52.800
<v Speaker 1>I guarantee you. They have their own little underground secret

0:33:52.960 --> 0:33:56.240
<v Speaker 1>office which they're like white board. They're like, so this

0:33:56.360 --> 0:33:59.320
<v Speaker 1>week we're gonna do hashtag this and this and hassionate. Man,

0:33:59.400 --> 0:34:03.200
<v Speaker 1>they're good. They are good. They're not And some fan

0:34:03.280 --> 0:34:06.760
<v Speaker 1>groups are really rude. Yeah, because you just see the

0:34:06.880 --> 0:34:12.000
<v Speaker 1>loudest most fan groups as a whole, even as even

0:34:12.040 --> 0:34:15.359
<v Speaker 1>in country music, the vocal minority is what gets heard.

0:34:16.000 --> 0:34:19.200
<v Speaker 1>So that's the angriest, most minority part of music. With

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:24.640
<v Speaker 1>fan groups, the angry minorities give everybody else a bad rap. Yeah,

0:34:25.120 --> 0:34:28.000
<v Speaker 1>you didn't have any mean ones. Maybe because we weren't fighting,

0:34:28.040 --> 0:34:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but it was actually really kind. No,

0:34:31.960 --> 0:34:35.160
<v Speaker 1>they like work together, they're all friends and they just

0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:37.960
<v Speaker 1>they're really nice. Where do they come from? Do they

0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:40.839
<v Speaker 1>come from the voice? The record? Where do they start

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:43.799
<v Speaker 1>to see you? And it was the Voice, and which

0:34:43.960 --> 0:34:47.040
<v Speaker 1>is crazy, even with my long break that I took,

0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:51.120
<v Speaker 1>it was crazy to see that one voice fan group

0:34:51.520 --> 0:34:55.040
<v Speaker 1>just continue to support me till this day. And it's

0:34:55.080 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 1>cool because I've seen them kind of grow up too

0:34:57.680 --> 0:35:00.000
<v Speaker 1>and they feel that way about me, which is awesome.

0:35:00.040 --> 0:35:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Them um, but they never left and I remember a

0:35:04.200 --> 0:35:07.279
<v Speaker 1>lot of them and I and I didn't see one leave.

0:35:07.800 --> 0:35:10.239
<v Speaker 1>It was really cool because they stuck. It was from

0:35:10.280 --> 0:35:12.520
<v Speaker 1>the Voice for sure. For me, I don't know you

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:16.680
<v Speaker 1>from the Voice, So I don't know you from the Voice,

0:35:17.280 --> 0:35:18.640
<v Speaker 1>which I think is a cool thing for me to

0:35:18.719 --> 0:35:21.160
<v Speaker 1>know you as an artist and I think, and not

0:35:21.320 --> 0:35:23.719
<v Speaker 1>as the person who won the TV show. I didn't

0:35:23.760 --> 0:35:27.120
<v Speaker 1>know Cassidy from the Voice. Like, I got here into

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Nashville in this format because I came from pop and

0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:31.279
<v Speaker 1>hip hop, and you know that's I was like, I

0:35:31.400 --> 0:35:33.799
<v Speaker 1>want to go do country. It's the easiest format I've

0:35:33.840 --> 0:35:37.080
<v Speaker 1>never fit in anywhere because I've always been too country

0:35:37.120 --> 0:35:40.400
<v Speaker 1>on the hip hop station, to rock on the sports station,

0:35:40.800 --> 0:35:43.400
<v Speaker 1>to pop in the country. But I've never fit And

0:35:43.520 --> 0:35:46.040
<v Speaker 1>so when I got here, I just didn't know you

0:35:46.200 --> 0:35:48.680
<v Speaker 1>guys from the Voice. And I think it's been cooler

0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:51.600
<v Speaker 1>for me to not I think because a lot of

0:35:51.640 --> 0:35:55.880
<v Speaker 1>people do and and it's rare when they're like, so,

0:35:56.040 --> 0:35:59.400
<v Speaker 1>I honestly didn't know like you were on the Voice

0:35:59.440 --> 0:36:02.480
<v Speaker 1>and I I just heard you sing for the first time.

0:36:02.560 --> 0:36:05.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, that's cool, Like that's genuine. I'm super cool.

0:36:05.960 --> 0:36:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm the coolest thing. I'm way because I guess I know,

0:36:11.200 --> 0:36:14.640
<v Speaker 1>I just know. I never watched the voice. Yeah, it's hard.

0:36:14.800 --> 0:36:17.160
<v Speaker 1>I can't even keep up with it now, I bet

0:36:17.200 --> 0:36:19.640
<v Speaker 1>you get. I really wasn't even gonna go to the voice,

0:36:20.160 --> 0:36:22.040
<v Speaker 1>but I bet because because I'm sure you gotta get

0:36:22.040 --> 0:36:23.920
<v Speaker 1>tired talking about the stupid voice. And I'm not not

0:36:24.239 --> 0:36:26.200
<v Speaker 1>that the voice is stupid, but I would feel like,

0:36:26.920 --> 0:36:28.840
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, let me move on in my life.

0:36:29.239 --> 0:36:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Although it is an important part of your story, it's

0:36:32.080 --> 0:36:34.560
<v Speaker 1>not the most important part of the story. Yeah, because

0:36:34.560 --> 0:36:37.799
<v Speaker 1>I want to get somewhere where like you. It's you're

0:36:37.880 --> 0:36:41.520
<v Speaker 1>known as as Danielle Bradberry. I think Kelly has a

0:36:41.760 --> 0:36:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Clarkson has done a great job and it's taken a while,

0:36:45.600 --> 0:36:48.000
<v Speaker 1>but that's what hits will do for you. Yeah, Kelly

0:36:48.040 --> 0:36:50.560
<v Speaker 1>has done a great job, and she's not she Oh yeah,

0:36:50.600 --> 0:36:53.560
<v Speaker 1>she's an American Idol that's right, But she's not Kelly

0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Clarkson from American Idol. Yeah, well who else has who'd

0:36:57.480 --> 0:37:02.040
<v Speaker 1>done that? Where Carrie Underwood? Oh Carrie for sure. Yeah.

0:37:02.960 --> 0:37:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't even think And I watched Idol with carry

0:37:05.160 --> 0:37:07.360
<v Speaker 1>on it and I don't even think carrying Bow Bis,

0:37:07.400 --> 0:37:10.239
<v Speaker 1>I think for the same year. Both finished second and

0:37:10.320 --> 0:37:12.279
<v Speaker 1>I remember that vividly. I don't even think you carry

0:37:12.280 --> 0:37:15.120
<v Speaker 1>it being an idol. Yeah, I don't either. I think

0:37:15.160 --> 0:37:17.200
<v Speaker 1>you have an advantage over a lot of people that

0:37:17.239 --> 0:37:19.239
<v Speaker 1>come off shows because you did it so young. You

0:37:19.360 --> 0:37:23.360
<v Speaker 1>have that time, Yeah, to separate from it. It's still

0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:27.080
<v Speaker 1>be young and cool. Yeah, hopefully. I mean you could

0:37:27.080 --> 0:37:31.399
<v Speaker 1>be Chris Dodgers, like you know, I loved him, Yeah,

0:37:31.480 --> 0:37:33.839
<v Speaker 1>me too, Yeah, awesome he went on. I loved him

0:37:33.840 --> 0:37:34.920
<v Speaker 1>and then I met him and it wasn't very It

0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:36.719
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a good experience, but I love I loved him

0:37:36.719 --> 0:37:41.840
<v Speaker 1>on the show. Yeah. Do you ever remember Bobis the

0:37:42.000 --> 0:37:44.880
<v Speaker 1>longhe Yeah, I remember the finals. He got up and

0:37:44.920 --> 0:37:48.560
<v Speaker 1>saying acapella against carry in the finals. Yeah. It's pretty

0:37:48.600 --> 0:37:52.560
<v Speaker 1>moving because I remember vividly it was good. Yeah. Yeah,

0:37:52.800 --> 0:37:58.000
<v Speaker 1>your first concert was a billy going concert. Yeah, I

0:37:58.200 --> 0:38:08.520
<v Speaker 1>love not even you guys kind of had the same tone. No,

0:38:08.760 --> 0:38:11.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not kidding. When I was younger, I would sing

0:38:11.239 --> 0:38:15.360
<v Speaker 1>to this record and we I was so impressed with myself.

0:38:15.360 --> 0:38:20.719
<v Speaker 1>I was like, mom, we have the same He was

0:38:20.760 --> 0:38:22.759
<v Speaker 1>on the school bus and the music video. Oh, yeah,

0:38:23.000 --> 0:38:27.160
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, yeah, I love I called Billy. I don't

0:38:27.200 --> 0:38:28.759
<v Speaker 1>know him, but I think it was in Boston or something.

0:38:28.840 --> 0:38:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Now I don't know, but I called him in the

0:38:31.760 --> 0:38:35.280
<v Speaker 1>last year or so and uh, I haven't haven't anything

0:38:35.280 --> 0:38:37.640
<v Speaker 1>else he's done since. But I love that song so much,

0:38:37.680 --> 0:38:38.879
<v Speaker 1>so when I had his phone numbers, like I gotta

0:38:38.880 --> 0:38:41.680
<v Speaker 1>call him. I just gotta call Billy Gelman. Yeah, look

0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:43.359
<v Speaker 1>at that. Where was the show? Where'd you guy see

0:38:43.360 --> 0:38:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Billy Gelman? Rodeo? But he's yeah, because they have so

0:38:48.080 --> 0:38:51.000
<v Speaker 1>many ats, like it'd be masterp and then it'd be

0:38:51.040 --> 0:38:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Billy Gilman, ludicrous Carrie. Oh yeah, and I saw. I

0:38:56.239 --> 0:39:00.319
<v Speaker 1>remember going and seeing Luke, Brian Brad, Paisley Jason being

0:39:00.480 --> 0:39:06.640
<v Speaker 1>before anything and Billy Billy Gillman was the first one.

0:39:07.960 --> 0:39:10.800
<v Speaker 1>So next time you come into the radio show, you

0:39:10.880 --> 0:39:13.040
<v Speaker 1>need to sing one voice from Billy Gilman. That's a

0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:15.520
<v Speaker 1>good idea. I didn't really think about that. Don't sing

0:39:15.560 --> 0:39:18.480
<v Speaker 1>it anywhere else because this is I like this idea, okay,

0:39:18.800 --> 0:39:20.200
<v Speaker 1>and you have to work in it right now, what

0:39:20.239 --> 0:39:21.480
<v Speaker 1>have you? Whenever you want, you can come back. But

0:39:22.880 --> 0:39:26.879
<v Speaker 1>that's it. The song You're gonna Okay. I love that song.

0:39:27.600 --> 0:39:30.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even ashamed of no shame. And some people

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:32.920
<v Speaker 1>look at me weird when they're like, that's your first concert.

0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:35.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, hell yeah it was. I was. I was

0:39:37.080 --> 0:39:40.040
<v Speaker 1>a kid, and he was like the heartthrob and ill

0:39:40.120 --> 0:39:45.840
<v Speaker 1>two kids, two kids. Ye, he wasn't. I haven't been older.

0:39:46.280 --> 0:39:47.600
<v Speaker 1>He wasn't the heart though. He was the kid that

0:39:47.680 --> 0:39:51.600
<v Speaker 1>was singing. He was a kid heartthrob for a younger kids. Um,

0:39:51.680 --> 0:39:54.480
<v Speaker 1>and I was that younger kid. And so I remember

0:39:54.560 --> 0:39:57.960
<v Speaker 1>being out in the aisle of the concert and the

0:39:58.120 --> 0:40:01.880
<v Speaker 1>big like TV screens. He like looked and he didn't

0:40:01.920 --> 0:40:04.600
<v Speaker 1>look over at us. I was like, mommy looked at me.

0:40:04.719 --> 0:40:07.040
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, no, he didn't, But I was

0:40:07.200 --> 0:40:10.520
<v Speaker 1>freaking out. It was so fun. Well you listen to

0:40:10.600 --> 0:40:15.760
<v Speaker 1>now you know this one? Do you are you into?

0:40:18.360 --> 0:40:19.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you can call this whatever you want to

0:40:19.600 --> 0:40:22.080
<v Speaker 1>call it, but are you into the new hip hop?

0:40:23.160 --> 0:40:26.800
<v Speaker 1>M it's some of them. For me, it has to

0:40:26.880 --> 0:40:29.520
<v Speaker 1>have like a really good beat. Well that's not what

0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:32.839
<v Speaker 1>this is because they what they do is I mean,

0:40:32.920 --> 0:40:36.200
<v Speaker 1>they used the eight, but then they slow it and

0:40:36.800 --> 0:40:41.240
<v Speaker 1>chop it. Yeah, it's the mumble they mumble. The mumbling

0:40:41.320 --> 0:40:43.200
<v Speaker 1>gets on my skin. So who do you like then?

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:46.879
<v Speaker 1>I I do love post Malone a lot. He's so gross. Look,

0:40:47.360 --> 0:40:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I can't picture anything but how like dirty half his

0:40:51.080 --> 0:40:53.279
<v Speaker 1>teeth or gold half or like turf and he's like

0:40:53.960 --> 0:40:57.799
<v Speaker 1>his whatever tattoo on his forehead. I don't know. It's

0:40:57.840 --> 0:41:01.480
<v Speaker 1>all just so gross that I think, how could someone

0:41:01.560 --> 0:41:05.759
<v Speaker 1>make out with him? I don't know, he probably, but

0:41:05.880 --> 0:41:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I've seen I've watched interviews on him, and he's like

0:41:09.200 --> 0:41:13.000
<v Speaker 1>the sweetest, funniest guy. And it's also like hip hop sucks.

0:41:13.200 --> 0:41:18.040
<v Speaker 1>All this sucks that I'm own foremast country. Yes, what

0:41:18.200 --> 0:41:20.520
<v Speaker 1>he does I admire because I also think genres are garbage.

0:41:20.520 --> 0:41:23.359
<v Speaker 1>I said that a lot because everybody's influenced by everything

0:41:23.360 --> 0:41:26.640
<v Speaker 1>at this point. If you were born, if you started

0:41:26.680 --> 0:41:29.240
<v Speaker 1>to consume music in a late mid to late nineties

0:41:29.280 --> 0:41:31.959
<v Speaker 1>up until now, you were you took in everything, yeah,

0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:35.160
<v Speaker 1>and every formats influenced by every format. So I'm just

0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:37.680
<v Speaker 1>like genres for the sake of genres are just garbage.

0:41:37.960 --> 0:41:40.880
<v Speaker 1>I understand why the split up a bit, but I

0:41:40.960 --> 0:41:42.920
<v Speaker 1>have the biggest country radio show in the history of

0:41:42.960 --> 0:41:46.200
<v Speaker 1>the world, probably thirty six percent AM on music, not

0:41:46.280 --> 0:41:48.400
<v Speaker 1>even that much as country, yeah, and even then like

0:41:48.440 --> 0:41:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the Lanco album Fantasy it just counted the day. I

0:41:51.040 --> 0:41:56.080
<v Speaker 1>love it. It sounds like a imagine dragons Coldplay music. Right,

0:41:56.280 --> 0:42:00.840
<v Speaker 1>But that's now what quote unquote country is. Instead of

0:42:00.920 --> 0:42:03.320
<v Speaker 1>being fiddles, it's more of how do you tell a story?

0:42:03.840 --> 0:42:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Yea more it's not so much the texture of the sound,

0:42:07.880 --> 0:42:11.200
<v Speaker 1>but the delivery of the message. That to me is

0:42:11.200 --> 0:42:13.880
<v Speaker 1>the difference. But my difference doesn't matter. There's no right

0:42:13.920 --> 0:42:17.440
<v Speaker 1>answer to me. There's people fight about what is this

0:42:17.560 --> 0:42:20.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of music? Mean? That's not country? And anyone who

0:42:20.160 --> 0:42:23.000
<v Speaker 1>says that I automatically since they're dumb, like I think

0:42:23.040 --> 0:42:27.880
<v Speaker 1>they can't see over a level of I agree, I agree,

0:42:27.920 --> 0:42:30.799
<v Speaker 1>and and it makes some of the genre traditionalists hate

0:42:30.840 --> 0:42:32.640
<v Speaker 1>my guts. And I'm okay with that, which is why

0:42:32.640 --> 0:42:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't go out a lot. I want to give

0:42:33.640 --> 0:42:38.759
<v Speaker 1>it up, which is it's yes, it's fine, and the

0:42:38.960 --> 0:42:46.040
<v Speaker 1>silent majority agree. No one just has a format on

0:42:46.120 --> 0:42:49.840
<v Speaker 1>their phone. No, heck no, I mean walk in the

0:42:50.000 --> 0:42:52.320
<v Speaker 1>c m a red carpet and they're like, so what

0:42:52.400 --> 0:42:54.839
<v Speaker 1>are you listening to? They expect me to be like, oh,

0:42:55.000 --> 0:42:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Jason Dean's new song. I'm like, no, I got some

0:42:58.160 --> 0:43:02.000
<v Speaker 1>thug music on my phone and they're like, okay, Like

0:43:02.280 --> 0:43:05.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm telling you the truth. And then every

0:43:05.120 --> 0:43:08.520
<v Speaker 1>now and then, like literally, I'll sometimes I drive to

0:43:08.680 --> 0:43:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Texas for like holidays. I love driving. I don't know why.

0:43:12.600 --> 0:43:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Um Man, that's a long drive, but I'll put it

0:43:16.080 --> 0:43:21.000
<v Speaker 1>on shuffle and it'll be I mean, the Little Wayne song,

0:43:21.400 --> 0:43:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and then the next song will be jus take the wheel. Okay,

0:43:24.920 --> 0:43:30.399

<v Speaker 1>just keeping me up. It's that's like every night, I'm like, God,

0:46:45.760 --> 0:46:48.120
<v Speaker 1>but I sleep in all the time. But but that's

0:46:48.120 --> 0:46:50.040
<v Speaker 1>not sleeping in if it's all the time, not all

0:46:50.080 --> 0:46:54.840
<v Speaker 1>the time you wake up for work. Yes, did you

0:46:54.880 --> 0:46:57.040
<v Speaker 1>have to go to radio tour again? I did, because

0:46:57.080 --> 0:46:58.800
<v Speaker 1>you were kind of out for a bit. You have

0:46:58.880 --> 0:47:03.000
<v Speaker 1>to go around and like, how is your radio tour experienced?

0:47:03.080 --> 0:47:06.080
<v Speaker 1>The last time was different than it was four years ago? Um,

0:47:06.239 --> 0:47:12.040
<v Speaker 1>it was, yeah, because I you know, the first time

0:47:12.480 --> 0:47:18.360
<v Speaker 1>was my first time. I was about seventeen eighteen, and

0:47:18.560 --> 0:47:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I just had my mom with me, and I just

0:47:21.040 --> 0:47:23.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't really know how to talk to people and especially

0:47:24.239 --> 0:47:28.400
<v Speaker 1>just how the whole radio thing goes. I did not

0:47:28.640 --> 0:47:31.480
<v Speaker 1>know how to act, how to be. I was just

0:47:31.600 --> 0:47:35.200
<v Speaker 1>like a little I was a teenager. So now this

0:47:35.480 --> 0:47:38.320
<v Speaker 1>the second time I did it, I was like, well aware,

0:47:38.960 --> 0:47:41.359
<v Speaker 1>it's like, you know, okay, I gotta like wake up,

0:47:42.239 --> 0:47:44.880
<v Speaker 1>like walk in there with like like kind of a

0:47:45.120 --> 0:47:48.920
<v Speaker 1>positive energy because I at first I didn't running for office,

0:47:49.680 --> 0:47:51.319
<v Speaker 1>and I've never been a part of a radio tour,

0:47:51.719 --> 0:47:54.919
<v Speaker 1>nor did people come to me for radio tour because

0:47:54.920 --> 0:48:00.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a radio station. But my flagship, which is

0:48:00.400 --> 0:48:02.680
<v Speaker 1>w S a X, is in the next room and

0:48:02.760 --> 0:48:04.759
<v Speaker 1>people come through and they'll play for the station. So

0:48:04.840 --> 0:48:06.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm never a part. I've never been a part of

0:48:06.520 --> 0:48:09.640
<v Speaker 1>radio to On the pop side, I was. I remember

0:48:09.719 --> 0:48:11.480
<v Speaker 1>once it pop. I got a call they're like, hey,

0:48:11.560 --> 0:48:14.040

0:48:14.160 --> 0:48:18.279
<v Speaker 1>Like I didn't. I was doing what I was. I

0:48:18.360 --> 0:48:21.680
<v Speaker 1>started doing mornings. That was twenty two, right, so and

0:48:21.960 --> 0:48:23.680
<v Speaker 1>in that next few years and I know there's a

0:48:23.719 --> 0:48:25.520

0:48:40.400 --> 0:48:44.200
<v Speaker 1>You should go up there, and I'm I'm g After

0:48:44.560 --> 0:48:47.239
<v Speaker 1>it was Katie Perry this other girl comes there, like, hey,

0:48:47.360 --> 0:48:49.000
<v Speaker 1>she's just girl. I don't know if she's wanting to

0:48:49.040 --> 0:48:51.680
<v Speaker 1>tie with a wife beaters in Canada. Her name is

0:48:51.800 --> 0:48:54.520
<v Speaker 1>levi Agni or something. I was like, you know, I'm good.

0:48:54.640 --> 0:48:58.879
<v Speaker 1>She never got Adril Levine. I've got twenty of these

0:48:59.200 --> 0:49:01.160
<v Speaker 1>where I was just ep. I was like, they're never

0:49:01.239 --> 0:49:06.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna make it. I'm good, we're not going to do it.

0:49:06.560 --> 0:49:10.480
<v Speaker 1>But so I've never been in a radio tour or

0:49:10.520 --> 0:49:13.440
<v Speaker 1>I've never been a program director. I don't know that

0:49:13.680 --> 0:49:18.160
<v Speaker 1>part of it. So I just talked to artists and

0:49:18.400 --> 0:49:20.560
<v Speaker 1>find out, you know, as a female, when you do

0:49:20.680 --> 0:49:23.520
<v Speaker 1>that and you're going to talk to forty five year

0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:28.080
<v Speaker 1>old men all the time, what's the creepy ratio? Because

0:49:28.120 --> 0:49:33.919
<v Speaker 1>I would always just be aware and there it's there,

0:49:34.200 --> 0:49:36.920
<v Speaker 1>for sure, for sure, it's there. I have some with

0:49:36.960 --> 0:49:39.560
<v Speaker 1>me all the time. Oh yeah, oh I do all

0:49:39.600 --> 0:49:44.120
<v Speaker 1>the time. Oh, especially like events and like being at

0:49:44.120 --> 0:49:47.840
<v Speaker 1>a hotel. I'm I'm always I'm terrified of hotels. I

0:49:47.920 --> 0:49:50.520
<v Speaker 1>think that's a new fact, the actual building or the

0:49:50.560 --> 0:49:54.560
<v Speaker 1>people in them, like just sleeping in hotels, Like I

0:49:54.719 --> 0:49:57.880
<v Speaker 1>just I never sleep ever, I'd never have a good

0:49:57.960 --> 0:49:59.759
<v Speaker 1>night sleep when I'm in a hotel and I'm a

0:50:00.000 --> 0:50:03.400
<v Speaker 1>he is afraid that somebody will follow me to my

0:50:03.560 --> 0:50:07.680
<v Speaker 1>room or get my name like on the front desk

0:50:07.760 --> 0:50:11.680
<v Speaker 1>and act like they work for me. They usually I

0:50:11.760 --> 0:50:14.800
<v Speaker 1>have it under my radio reps name so it's not

0:50:14.920 --> 0:50:19.160
<v Speaker 1>under mine, but like events, usually they'll put mine under there.

0:50:19.440 --> 0:50:21.480
<v Speaker 1>So I need to do a fake name. I have

0:50:21.600 --> 0:50:24.000
<v Speaker 1>a standard one that I'll do each quarter, and it

0:50:24.160 --> 0:50:28.560
<v Speaker 1>changes just because again, people will look and try to

0:50:28.600 --> 0:50:30.840
<v Speaker 1>find where you are, or they'll call your room. And

0:50:31.280 --> 0:50:34.399
<v Speaker 1>most of the time people aren't wanting to do bad things.

0:50:34.840 --> 0:50:36.920
<v Speaker 1>They really just want to meet you. I know, I'm

0:50:36.920 --> 0:50:42.279
<v Speaker 1>trying to go sleep. But yeah, and again there's a

0:50:42.360 --> 0:50:45.759
<v Speaker 1>personal space thing too where you're you know, I'm in

0:50:45.920 --> 0:50:50.759
<v Speaker 1>my room now. Yeah, it's almost like your house. Yeah,

0:50:50.960 --> 0:50:54.600
<v Speaker 1>you're like a little safe safe. Yeah, And so you

0:50:54.680 --> 0:50:57.279
<v Speaker 1>have to get some sort of cycle of fake names

0:50:57.960 --> 0:51:01.320
<v Speaker 1>just for safety. Oh, for safety. Yeah, for me, because

0:51:01.360 --> 0:51:04.719
<v Speaker 1>it freaks me out. I just saw you, you know,

0:51:05.920 --> 0:51:09.759
<v Speaker 1>just being a female artist in dudes, I would just

0:51:09.960 --> 0:51:13.759
<v Speaker 1>always have somebody around. I just would. Yeah, And I'm

0:51:13.800 --> 0:51:16.000
<v Speaker 1>not giving you advice that you don't already know. Yeah,

0:51:16.320 --> 0:51:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I just would. And I've never been to radio tour,

0:51:18.600 --> 0:51:21.560
<v Speaker 1>so I don't know firsthand. But also you're you're tiny

0:51:21.840 --> 0:51:24.040
<v Speaker 1>when you at festivals. I would never want to take

0:51:24.040 --> 0:51:26.080
<v Speaker 1>pictures with anybody, especially men, because the have armpits right

0:51:26.120 --> 0:51:28.440
<v Speaker 1>at your head. It's like your nose's gonna write your armpits.

0:51:28.480 --> 0:51:31.239
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, that is my life. It's like that.

0:51:31.320 --> 0:51:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Everybody wants to put their arms around you know. For me,

0:51:33.000 --> 0:51:37.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm a taller guy. Hot festivals, everybody smells like beer

0:51:38.160 --> 0:51:43.560
<v Speaker 1>sweat in in sunscreen, and I'm right at armpit level.

0:51:44.239 --> 0:51:47.880
<v Speaker 1>It's it's horrible. I stink by the time I'm on stage.

0:51:48.040 --> 0:51:51.279
<v Speaker 1>Your face smells like armpit. Yes, you're talking to your

0:51:51.360 --> 0:51:56.279
<v Speaker 1>face smells yes. I'm like, what the heck? I there's

0:51:56.320 --> 0:52:00.640
<v Speaker 1>no out of this. I'm just short and been in heels.

0:52:00.680 --> 0:52:04.759

0:52:04.840 --> 0:52:09.600

0:54:50.719 --> 0:54:52.520

0:54:52.520 --> 0:54:56.719

0:54:57.239 --> 0:55:02.839

0:55:02.880 --> 0:55:07.560
<v Speaker 1>of cool. I guess that's a good example. Man. I

0:55:07.760 --> 0:55:10.480
<v Speaker 1>wonder I have a bunch of songs here. Let's see,

0:55:10.520 --> 0:55:14.560
<v Speaker 1>how about this one? Not I've hand picked some of

0:55:14.600 --> 0:55:21.960
<v Speaker 1>my favorites. Okay, this potential. Tell me about this one. Um.

0:55:22.560 --> 0:55:26.920
<v Speaker 1>It was the first song I we kind of figured

0:55:26.960 --> 0:55:30.520
<v Speaker 1>out too, like shape the whole album around, because it

0:55:30.680 --> 0:55:35.040
<v Speaker 1>was like the first big song, um we wrote. And

0:55:36.080 --> 0:55:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I wrote it with Emily wise Man and Johann Lennon Brand.

0:55:39.320 --> 0:55:41.880
<v Speaker 1>He's based in l A. And Emily's like my go

0:55:42.040 --> 0:55:45.279
<v Speaker 1>to girl here in Nashville. Um, and we we wrote

0:55:45.360 --> 0:55:48.960
<v Speaker 1>it were like this is it, Like this is the

0:55:49.080 --> 0:55:52.879
<v Speaker 1>blast off for this new album, and uh, it's been

0:55:53.440 --> 0:55:56.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean I I played it out at a writer's

0:55:56.400 --> 0:55:59.600
<v Speaker 1>round to debut it and it I mean album nothing

0:55:59.719 --> 0:56:03.520
<v Speaker 1>was out yet, and um, we got such a huge

0:56:03.600 --> 0:56:06.200
<v Speaker 1>reaction out of it, and we were like, oh my god.

0:56:06.280 --> 0:56:11.960
<v Speaker 1>And I think, uh, somebody like I couldn't say rolling Stones,

0:56:12.000 --> 0:56:15.880
<v Speaker 1>that's that's too big. But somebody posted about it on

0:56:16.000 --> 0:56:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Twitter and and it was just like, ha, this is

0:56:19.120 --> 0:56:21.040
<v Speaker 1>this is a good sign. This is a good sign.

0:56:21.160 --> 0:56:23.880
<v Speaker 1>So that's one of my favorites on the album too.

0:56:24.520 --> 0:56:28.880
<v Speaker 1>About this Human Diary, I saw a lot of people

0:56:29.239 --> 0:56:31.799
<v Speaker 1>posting about this one when it came out, a lot

0:56:31.880 --> 0:56:34.080
<v Speaker 1>of shares on this song. I think for me, the

0:56:34.160 --> 0:56:36.560
<v Speaker 1>most I saw of any song was this one. Yeah.

0:56:37.000 --> 0:56:38.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you felt that, but a lot

0:56:38.440 --> 0:56:40.560
<v Speaker 1>of people, Yeah, a lot of people say that they

0:56:40.760 --> 0:56:42.560
<v Speaker 1>love this one. It's actually one of the songs I

0:56:42.600 --> 0:56:45.239
<v Speaker 1>didn't write, um, because I co wrote seven of the

0:56:45.320 --> 0:56:49.520
<v Speaker 1>ten um on the new record, and this one it was.

0:56:49.840 --> 0:56:53.120
<v Speaker 1>It was a pretty interesting day too, because I I

0:56:53.239 --> 0:56:56.120
<v Speaker 1>got with Emily wise Man and Josh Kerr and they

0:56:56.680 --> 0:57:00.160
<v Speaker 1>had written this song just at their house one night, Um,

0:57:00.239 --> 0:57:02.520
<v Speaker 1>wanting to write a song. It's like, well, y'all are

0:57:02.560 --> 0:57:08.359
<v Speaker 1>so talented, jeez, and Um, I was gonna record worth

0:57:08.440 --> 0:57:10.960
<v Speaker 1>It that day, and and it was the last thing

0:57:11.040 --> 0:57:14.000
<v Speaker 1>we needed to do to finish the whole album. And

0:57:14.600 --> 0:57:18.200
<v Speaker 1>I was like pushing it because like, we're not recording

0:57:18.280 --> 0:57:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Worth It today, we're recording Human Diary. Because I was like,

0:57:21.280 --> 0:57:24.480
<v Speaker 1>in the emotional state of hearing that song, I was like,

0:57:24.560 --> 0:57:26.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to record it like this any other day.

0:57:27.120 --> 0:57:29.800
<v Speaker 1>And so that's what we did. And I forced this

0:57:30.000 --> 0:57:32.640
<v Speaker 1>song to be on the album because the album was finished.

0:57:33.280 --> 0:57:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I was like, is there room for for this song?

0:57:36.680 --> 0:57:39.280
<v Speaker 1>And and they they let me. I was so excited.

0:57:39.840 --> 0:57:41.960
<v Speaker 1>You fought for a song too that you didn't write

0:57:42.000 --> 0:57:45.200
<v Speaker 1>that you just felt it was a big feeling for

0:57:45.360 --> 0:57:47.880
<v Speaker 1>that song, for sure. I've never felt that way listening

0:57:47.920 --> 0:57:53.120
<v Speaker 1>to a song, Um, I didn't write about and it

0:57:53.480 --> 0:57:59.360
<v Speaker 1>was this is the other one I didn't write. There's

0:57:59.360 --> 0:58:02.320
<v Speaker 1>a good one that I like you. I like the

0:58:02.760 --> 0:58:07.680
<v Speaker 1>floor on the floor here. Yeah. Um. It was actually

0:58:08.040 --> 0:58:15.720

0:58:15.840 --> 0:58:17.840

<v Speaker 1>a morning it was tough, look, flawless, effortless, just like

0:59:08.440 --> 0:59:09.880
<v Speaker 1>I was like, man, that must be nice to have

0:59:09.960 --> 0:59:18.680
<v Speaker 1>that kind of talent built in and thank you know

0:59:18.720 --> 0:59:20.200
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna come out do a couple of shows with me,

0:59:20.240 --> 0:59:23.000
<v Speaker 1>did you know that? Yeah? Yeah, I saw that Austin

0:59:23.040 --> 0:59:26.280
<v Speaker 1>and which saw falls. So I love Austin. Yeah, I

0:59:26.360 --> 0:59:30.520
<v Speaker 1>love about three blocks from the theater in Austin, So

0:59:30.920 --> 0:59:34.480
<v Speaker 1>that's that's home. Austin's home. Yeah, for sure. I was

0:59:34.520 --> 0:59:36.160
<v Speaker 1>born in Arkansas, but like I grew up as a

0:59:36.240 --> 0:59:40.200
<v Speaker 1>human in Austin, and I love Nashville. I've been lucky

0:59:40.240 --> 0:59:43.160
<v Speaker 1>to live in three fantastic places. Yeah my home which

0:59:43.240 --> 0:59:47.480
<v Speaker 1>is Mountain Pine, Arkansas. But Austin and Nashville are both fantastic.

0:59:47.800 --> 0:59:51.360
<v Speaker 1>But you're gonna that Austin crowd. It's gonna be awesome,

0:59:51.560 --> 0:59:55.000
<v Speaker 1>And I honestly I haven't I really don't think I've

0:59:55.040 --> 0:59:58.360
<v Speaker 1>played a show in Austin yet, Like this is gonna

0:59:58.400 --> 1:00:00.560
<v Speaker 1>be the first time and it's I'm exed because I've

1:00:00.560 --> 1:00:02.840
<v Speaker 1>always wanted to do stuff like in Texas and stuff.

1:00:03.360 --> 1:00:06.600
<v Speaker 1>I grew up going to Austin all the time. Um,

1:00:06.760 --> 1:00:10.200
<v Speaker 1>and you're right, like Texas for me, like as a human,

1:00:10.600 --> 1:00:14.760
<v Speaker 1>that's that's my home. Nashville is great, But Nashville doesn't.

1:00:15.000 --> 1:00:18.560
<v Speaker 1>There's so many outer influences. It doesn't really feel like

1:00:19.560 --> 1:00:23.800
<v Speaker 1>in the creative space that it's Nashville. When you get

1:00:23.840 --> 1:00:25.160
<v Speaker 1>out of the creative zone, you start to go, oh,

1:00:25.240 --> 1:00:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Nashville is really cool. But when you're in the stupid

1:00:27.120 --> 1:00:29.360
<v Speaker 1>bubble that we live in, it doesn't feel like anything.

1:00:29.520 --> 1:00:31.240
<v Speaker 1>It feels like a bunch of fake people running around.

1:00:31.480 --> 1:00:33.880
<v Speaker 1>That's why don't That's that's why I don't hang out

1:00:33.920 --> 1:00:39.880
<v Speaker 1>with anybody here. I don't hang out with anybody. She knows.

1:00:41.920 --> 1:00:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm always hitting at my managers and I'm like, hey,

1:00:45.200 --> 1:00:48.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to hang out with me. It's tough.

1:00:49.680 --> 1:00:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Wonder who wants to hang Why do they want to

1:00:51.400 --> 1:00:54.120
<v Speaker 1>hang out with you? Way do they want from me? Exactly?

1:00:54.960 --> 1:00:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Why is this person? All of a sudden, I just

1:00:56.840 --> 1:01:02.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm so in you know, I fakeness to me. It's

1:01:02.840 --> 1:01:06.120
<v Speaker 1>like a phobia. I can't be around it because I'm

1:01:06.200 --> 1:01:09.640
<v Speaker 1>not having fun and it's not genuine. If it's not genuine,

1:01:09.680 --> 1:01:13.040
<v Speaker 1>then I'm like, come on, I'm not having a good time.

1:01:13.600 --> 1:01:15.600
<v Speaker 1>So that's why I don't. I don't hang out with

1:01:16.160 --> 1:01:19.080
<v Speaker 1>really much of anybody. And I think you're will to

1:01:19.120 --> 1:01:21.840
<v Speaker 1>trust somebody takes me a while. Yeah, that's my problem too,

1:01:21.960 --> 1:01:25.400
<v Speaker 1>and to my detriment sometimes because I think there are

1:01:25.480 --> 1:01:28.000
<v Speaker 1>some really good people here, yeah, for sure, But we

1:01:28.120 --> 1:01:30.480
<v Speaker 1>also live in a place where I'll give you an example,

1:01:32.120 --> 1:01:37.240
<v Speaker 1>I really and have a friendship with Dirk's good dude,

1:01:37.560 --> 1:01:41.400
<v Speaker 1>not fake. But again, he's gone so much when I'm

1:01:41.440 --> 1:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>gone that we don't we can't really forge that next

1:01:44.880 --> 1:01:48.640
<v Speaker 1>level stuff because we're never in the same place. So

1:01:48.760 --> 1:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>it's very difficult. And anybody that I dated has always

1:01:53.160 --> 1:01:55.040
<v Speaker 1>been in the industry. I say, anyway, I did it

1:01:55.080 --> 1:02:02.720
<v Speaker 1>three people and yeah, so it's been tough. So but

1:02:02.840 --> 1:02:04.640
<v Speaker 1>I completely I don't. I don't have a whole lot

1:02:04.680 --> 1:02:07.240
<v Speaker 1>of friends, you know, I don't. I don't really Like

1:02:08.040 --> 1:02:10.960
<v Speaker 1>that's not a bad thing to me. Like I almost

1:02:11.040 --> 1:02:14.920
<v Speaker 1>like just have my own little routine. I love Target,

1:02:15.360 --> 1:02:22.360
<v Speaker 1>going to Target and going and bugging the crap out

1:02:22.360 --> 1:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>on my managers and one of them is in the

1:02:26.360 --> 1:02:29.000
<v Speaker 1>room right now, but she has like a hot tub

1:02:29.440 --> 1:02:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and when it was like really freezing one of the

1:02:31.520 --> 1:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>other nights, we like had a hot tub night. And

1:02:34.120 --> 1:02:36.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, that's that's fun to me. Like I love

1:02:36.760 --> 1:02:40.480
<v Speaker 1>just hanging out and if a football games on, if whatever,

1:02:40.920 --> 1:02:45.440
<v Speaker 1>I love that like wine nights and not my thing.

1:02:47.200 --> 1:02:50.840
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know. Yeah, I think that's probably why

1:02:50.840 --> 1:02:56.880
<v Speaker 1>I think you're cool. I never get that, Hey, we'd

1:02:56.920 --> 1:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>be strong, and that could be interpreted a thousand ways,

1:03:00.360 --> 1:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's fair to interpret that a thousand ways. Everybody, Hey,

1:03:05.560 --> 1:03:08.040
<v Speaker 1>let's get together, let me let me get your and

1:03:08.120 --> 1:03:10.880
<v Speaker 1>I think they're probably at a point a good person.

1:03:11.480 --> 1:03:13.920
<v Speaker 1>But I don't want to have to dig through eight

1:03:14.000 --> 1:03:16.320
<v Speaker 1>people to find some lazy too. I don't wake up

1:03:16.360 --> 1:03:21.640
<v Speaker 1>three in the morning. I'm in bed. I try to

1:03:21.640 --> 1:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>go about eight second wake up with three. Who has

1:03:24.200 --> 1:03:26.880
<v Speaker 1>the time for a personal life when you do that? Yeah, true,

1:03:27.280 --> 1:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>that's hard. So well, I'm glad you came by. I'm

1:03:31.040 --> 1:03:33.160
<v Speaker 1>glad I did too. Awesome house, I got to meet

1:03:33.200 --> 1:03:37.560
<v Speaker 1>your dog fan Listen, I should apologize because I saw

1:03:37.600 --> 1:03:40.760
<v Speaker 1>you pulling dog here off of you. I'm sorry, no, no, no, no,

1:03:41.480 --> 1:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>my dog? Is that what it was? Yes? Because I

1:03:43.560 --> 1:03:45.720
<v Speaker 1>started to go, oh no, I have a all white

1:03:46.000 --> 1:03:49.680
<v Speaker 1>dog and he sheds like, that's my dog too, So

1:03:50.040 --> 1:03:52.640
<v Speaker 1>it's nothing okay. Because I felt a little bit because

1:03:52.640 --> 1:03:54.600
<v Speaker 1>you were like you were like taking off your dog.

1:03:54.720 --> 1:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this is my dog right here. I

1:03:59.000 --> 1:04:00.960
<v Speaker 1>have no problem with dog care because I live in it.

1:04:01.040 --> 1:04:04.400
<v Speaker 1>My dog sleeps in my bed. Yeah. Sometimes yeah, sometimes

1:04:04.480 --> 1:04:07.440
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes because they're too big, like you're it's just

1:04:07.600 --> 1:04:10.480
<v Speaker 1>the right size. Did you most people see my dog

1:04:10.560 --> 1:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>and they think, oh, he looks different, meaning size wise.

1:04:13.080 --> 1:04:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Did you think you what do you think he was?

1:04:16.400 --> 1:04:20.919
<v Speaker 1>Most people think what breed? So he's a Staffordshire bull,

1:04:21.840 --> 1:04:25.440
<v Speaker 1>which is and he's pure. What happened was there was

1:04:26.000 --> 1:04:28.560
<v Speaker 1>a raid in Austin and they busted up a puppy

1:04:28.640 --> 1:04:32.040
<v Speaker 1>mill because they were puppy milling. You know, the dogs

1:04:32.120 --> 1:04:33.520
<v Speaker 1>hump each other, and they were having all the dogs

1:04:33.560 --> 1:04:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and they were selling them and they were like, can't

1:04:35.080 --> 1:04:39.120
<v Speaker 1>do this anymore. So they were the shelter was, hey,

1:04:39.160 --> 1:04:41.000
<v Speaker 1>we have these dogs, and I went and I got

1:04:41.040 --> 1:04:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the runt of all of them, and he was way

1:04:43.720 --> 1:04:46.520
<v Speaker 1>too young, but he didn't have a mom, and so

1:04:46.600 --> 1:04:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I took him and have a picture of him somewhere

1:04:48.080 --> 1:04:50.320
<v Speaker 1>in this house and I'm holding him in one hand.

1:04:51.160 --> 1:04:53.360
<v Speaker 1>That's how small he was. So that dog is usually

1:04:53.400 --> 1:04:56.560
<v Speaker 1>he's thirty four pounds. That those dogs like sixty pounds.

1:04:56.640 --> 1:05:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Normally he's half that size. That's so cool though, I

1:05:00.560 --> 1:05:03.440
<v Speaker 1>love that. What about your dog? My, So one of

1:05:03.520 --> 1:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>them is a pointer mix and smart too smart. Yeah,

1:05:09.520 --> 1:05:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, those are very intelligent dogs. But there he's

1:05:12.160 --> 1:05:15.200
<v Speaker 1>so hyper. He's just he has that pointer tail and

1:05:15.280 --> 1:05:18.800
<v Speaker 1>he's always sniffing and once the front door opens a

1:05:18.880 --> 1:05:21.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit, he's gone, like he just wants to roam.

1:05:22.560 --> 1:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>But my other dog is a German Shepherd mix and

1:05:25.200 --> 1:05:28.560
<v Speaker 1>he's like this big, cuddly teddy bear and he's so sweet.

1:05:29.200 --> 1:05:31.680
<v Speaker 1>But I got him at the Humane Society, and so

1:05:31.840 --> 1:05:33.760
<v Speaker 1>they're a mix, and I don't I want to know

1:05:33.920 --> 1:05:37.120
<v Speaker 1>one day, like what you know that like me? For dogs?

1:05:37.200 --> 1:05:43.760
<v Speaker 1>They actually have a DNA kit. Nown yes, they have it,

1:05:43.840 --> 1:05:46.520
<v Speaker 1>and you take take your dog saliva and this is

1:05:46.520 --> 1:05:47.760
<v Speaker 1>not an average I don't know what the name of

1:05:47.840 --> 1:05:49.960
<v Speaker 1>it is. My friend, my friend just did it. And

1:05:50.040 --> 1:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I'll make sure you get what I want to do

1:05:52.240 --> 1:05:54.640
<v Speaker 1>that because I don't know exactly what, and now I

1:05:54.720 --> 1:05:56.240
<v Speaker 1>did it for me as a human with twenty three

1:05:56.280 --> 1:05:58.480
<v Speaker 1>and me because I don't really know what I am. Like.

1:05:58.880 --> 1:06:00.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, I never knew my dad, my mom really,

1:06:01.000 --> 1:06:04.640
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't know. I'm testing myself and to my surprise,

1:06:04.680 --> 1:06:12.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm very white. Yeah, I'm very that's just in prepared

1:06:12.640 --> 1:06:19.080
<v Speaker 1>to be shocked. I'm super Caucasian. Hilarious. So yeah, I'll

1:06:19.160 --> 1:06:21.200
<v Speaker 1>get you the name of what that is because it's

1:06:21.240 --> 1:06:23.160
<v Speaker 1>a real thing. With the dogs, you can now go

1:06:23.280 --> 1:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>find exactly what breed they are. Yeah, because my one

1:06:25.880 --> 1:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>of the German show, I say German shepherd because he

1:06:29.400 --> 1:06:32.680
<v Speaker 1>has those like low back legs and he's a big dog,

1:06:33.200 --> 1:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>but he has that brindle look and they at the

1:06:36.960 --> 1:06:39.960
<v Speaker 1>shelter said he was a mountain curve. I was like,

1:06:40.080 --> 1:06:42.120
<v Speaker 1>what the heck is that? And I looked it up

1:06:42.160 --> 1:06:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and they like hunt big animals and I'm like, but

1:06:44.640 --> 1:06:48.880
<v Speaker 1>he's too nice, he's something else. So but your point

1:06:48.920 --> 1:06:54.280
<v Speaker 1>are they're genetically hunting spotting? Yeah, for sure. And it's

1:06:54.280 --> 1:06:56.400
<v Speaker 1>funny because it's probably never actually had to go out

1:06:56.440 --> 1:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>and point, yet it still does. It's still because of

1:06:59.600 --> 1:07:02.439
<v Speaker 1>its gene. Yeah, yeah, we had a bunch of dogs

1:07:02.480 --> 1:07:06.560
<v Speaker 1>we had growing up to hunt with, and my hunting days,

1:07:07.480 --> 1:07:09.800
<v Speaker 1>those days, on those days don't exist anymore. But when

1:07:09.800 --> 1:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>you go up in Arkansas, that's how you bonded with everyone.

1:07:11.920 --> 1:07:13.960
<v Speaker 1>I had a gun, it I mean, I have one

1:07:14.000 --> 1:07:15.480
<v Speaker 1>gun now and just when someone tries to break in

1:07:15.520 --> 1:07:17.120
<v Speaker 1>my house, I have a big gun. I have a

1:07:17.200 --> 1:07:19.200
<v Speaker 1>big boy gun. Yeah, I have a big I have

1:07:19.240 --> 1:07:20.840
<v Speaker 1>a big boy gun too, but I don't use it

1:07:20.920 --> 1:07:22.800
<v Speaker 1>to go shoot animals anymore. I used it to shoot

1:07:22.880 --> 1:07:26.800
<v Speaker 1>humans and give me crap. But yeah, we had beagles

1:07:27.000 --> 1:07:29.400
<v Speaker 1>and we had pointers. But it was amazing when they

1:07:29.440 --> 1:07:32.480
<v Speaker 1>were puppies, they automatically had the instinct to do what

1:07:32.600 --> 1:07:34.920
<v Speaker 1>they were supposed to do. Yeah, so it was amazing.

1:07:34.960 --> 1:07:37.400
<v Speaker 1>It is amazing. And they're like posture, They're all like

1:07:38.080 --> 1:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>in in the zone. I'm like, that is so cool.

1:07:40.640 --> 1:07:43.520
<v Speaker 1>We would take a dog out and to Quil hunt

1:07:43.640 --> 1:07:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and he'd point because you see a bird or didn't

1:07:45.960 --> 1:07:49.120
<v Speaker 1>see that covey of Quil right on tail knows it

1:07:49.200 --> 1:07:51.440
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't move, and that's when you would know. That's where

1:07:51.440 --> 1:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>you would know they were. And so everybody was like, okay,

1:07:53.280 --> 1:07:56.240
<v Speaker 1>here we go. We go and then when they flew up,

1:07:56.680 --> 1:07:58.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't again. I don't do that anymore. He seemed

1:07:58.880 --> 1:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>like a pro at it, though. But that's what I

1:08:00.880 --> 1:08:06.200
<v Speaker 1>did for a lot of my life because fun. Yeah, sure, listen,

1:08:06.280 --> 1:08:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a big outside guy. Give me some WiFi

1:08:10.320 --> 1:08:16.360
<v Speaker 1>and you know miclave. I'm good, Microwave. I mean give

1:08:16.400 --> 1:08:22.240
<v Speaker 1>me Netflix and WiFi micwave. Yeah, I'm set for eight months. Perfect.

1:08:23.320 --> 1:08:25.519
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, when you're in Arkansas and your ten to

1:08:26.400 --> 1:08:29.040
<v Speaker 1>sevent that's when I finally moved away. That's how you

1:08:29.160 --> 1:08:31.560
<v Speaker 1>bonded with everybody, or you just didn't. Yeah, so you

1:08:31.600 --> 1:08:36.040
<v Speaker 1>went o shot things. I surprisingly I have dad's side

1:08:36.080 --> 1:08:38.519
<v Speaker 1>of the family, Little Rock, Arkansas. No, that's I grew

1:08:38.600 --> 1:08:41.880
<v Speaker 1>up in Rock and it's it is. It's country. That's

1:08:41.880 --> 1:08:43.920
<v Speaker 1>what we do. Yeah, I can see that that did

1:08:44.160 --> 1:08:46.519
<v Speaker 1>for me. Did But my step my stepdad who my
