Like what happened? The 0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:32.760 city is not on fire. It's kind of an interesting vacation. 0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:40.040 In the last Spain. This is called an appall. Where's money? 0:00:40.080 --> 0:00:45.080 It's the drink of the summer two years running Spain. 0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.319 Let's tell you about our trip. So we're clocked in 0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:53.120 on vacation. I got here about what was it five 0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:56.400 days ago. I came straight from New York. I was 0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:58.960 in New York doing a shoot with a fur hanging 0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:00.760 out with me and I. I say, you're a place 0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:03.440 for one night. And I got here. Priyanka and Malty 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:07.679 and our parents were already here. So then I joined up. 0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:09.320 Joe got here a day after. 0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.280 Me because I was shooting something in Los Angeles. I 0:01:11.280 --> 0:01:12.000 can't talk to you about it. 0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.679 We got top secret projects, so busy. We did Prianca's birthday, 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:20.000 wonderful day. The following day we watched Spain win the 0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:23.040 World Cup and the city was going nuts till last 0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:23.880 three or four in the morning. 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:25.759 Well, so a clip right now. This is a video 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:29.120 I took of the fireworks rolling here, the horns honking. Yeah, 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:36.600 they're going nuts. This went on all night. 0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:38.120 So the other thing about this place that we're in 0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:40.319 here in Spain, which shout out Spain, we love. 0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:42.639 You, seriously, shout out in Spain, it's Fiesta season. 0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:45.479 They basically shoot off fireworks at eight am every morning, 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:47.920 and then every night am. 0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:49.760 I don't know if they're testing them for the night 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:51.520 time or they just are I think it's a test 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:54.640 they're testing, and then at night I get ten From 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:57.400 pretty much from ten till midnight, they're just going off. 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.320 Did you watch the match? I did. I was flying 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.200 home from the Hamptons. Me and Danny went and visited 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:05.000 some friends and so chic. Yes, to Hampton's. 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.800 We had a little five minute flight. We literally had 0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:09.760 a five minute flight. Actually it was the perfect amount 0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:12.760 of time. It was twenty four minutes, and I watched 0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:16.400 the end of the real time. Then I watched the 0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:18.480 rest of it, you know, in. 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:19.760 The car ride home. Oh were you doing in the 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:22.160 Hampton's visiting some friends. They invited us out, went to 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:24.760 their beach house and it was very awesome. Did you 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:26.560 take a helicopter. I did not. 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:28.799 We flew on a plane and because I was not 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.240 about to sit in five hours of traffic with the 0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:32.320 World Cup traffic going on. 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:34.720 It's crazy here. It like lits it New York. It 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.040 was in the Great City New Jersey. I've met. 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:39.280 Was in the Great City of New Jersey, not New York. 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:42.160 But Joe, I went to Sunset Beach where you said 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:43.720 we have to go when you were out in the 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:47.120 Hampton's and it was the most amount of rain on 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:51.079 Shutter Island I've ever experienced, like ever, how much rain 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.440 we got that night. The tent inside that place was dripping, 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:58.360 but it became because you were so like just drenched, 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:00.400 it didn't matter, and dinner was awesome and the music 0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:00.880 was going on. 0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:03.920 But that's pretty trippy probably to experience that in the rainstorm. 0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:07.000 It was like kind of like giving Widows Bay. It 0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:10.519 was giving horror film. Speaking of horror films, have you 0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:13.760 guys watched Obsession yet? No? Actually, by the way, I'm sorry, 0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:17.079 but I've been saving it. It's Tati and I I've 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:20.840 been my Jiff. We are waiting to watch it, but 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.240 there's never an appropriate time to watch it. So I 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:28.480 have it saved this. I've watched it flight because you, guys, 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:29.800 I don't know why'd you watch it without me? 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:32.400 I watched quite a few movies, but Obsession is the 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.320 movie of the year. When I say it's it's beyond 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:37.640 its cultural reach. It is a fantastic film. 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:38.920 I can't wait to see the Odyssey. 0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:41.400 Though the Odyssey is gonna be great. Guys, A lot 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.360 has happened that we have to we have to recap, recap. 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.920 The first is three sold out nights Madison Square Gardens. 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:48.880 Let's go. 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:53.520 Twentieth twenty first, twenty second, are incredible fans. 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.120 This actually makes sense. This, this button I have makes 0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:57.840 a lot of sense for these three sold out here. 0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:02.200 Oh yeah, the tables, turning it back, turning back in time. 0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:04.480 We're playing, We're running, We're running it. Yeah, we're turning 0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:07.040 it back. The people have spoken by the way, we're 0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:09.360 doing the show. Oh yeah, we're doing turning the shows 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.240 back to the Burning Up tour that we were on 0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:13.200 in two thousand and the Burning Up Tour all over 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:14.080 again two thousand and eight. 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:16.640 It has been so incredible to see the responsory shows. 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:18.599 Thank you everyone that bought a ticket. You can't wait 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:21.719 to see you cannot wait. But what's been really fun 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:24.880 is literally putting the show back together. And I will 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.880 say that this is a bit of lore that we 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:31.960 never talked about. But the og sign, the burning up sign, 0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:35.120 one that lights on the firefire. We could not find it. 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:36.560 So here's the picture of what it looks like. 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.640 This is what we found in stores. We have a 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:43.760 Jonas Brothers storage Unity, which also is quite fun. It's 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:47.200 a Jonahs Brother's mal It's it's a massive storage unit 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:50.000 that if you're a fan of Big Fat Lier. When 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:51.599 they when they went into the uh. 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.039 Just watched it with the kids, I was like, guys, 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:55.839 you're gonna love this film. And you know what, shout 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:57.720 out the snails. You know what I'm talking about, Big 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:58.120 fat Lyre. 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:00.440 They said it moved too slow. They're like, it's a 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:01.000 little slow. 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:05.600 I'm like everything they watched is just like, yeah, fantastic 0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:06.159 about Liar. 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:07.240 I was thinking of Liar Liar. 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.240 Is there a storage unit scene in this Yeah, they 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.799 go into the costume house at the a lot. Remember 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.520 Paul Jamadi is like the big bad guy and they 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:18.440 go and it's it's one of my favorite scenes in 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:20.120 the film. And then the other one is when he 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.400 jumps into his pool. When he comes out, he's all blue. 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:25.479 So we found that the sign. That's the first step. 0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:27.200 We have been going back and forth with our production 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.920 team while on vacation and you know, all the rest, 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:33.280 putting the show back together piece by piece. 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:35.480 It's gonna be the OG set list. Uh. 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:39.760 There's some special things too that are new and some 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.040 slight changes, a lot of conversation around the flips. If 0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:46.000 we're gonna be doing the flips, I will say that 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:46.960 Joe and I have been. 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:49.760 We've been stretched working it out in the pool. Have 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:51.800 you been doing stretching them? It are? 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:54.840 We have something extra, guys. I don't want to get 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.120 anything away, but it's gonna be great. And then we 0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.000 take this twenty five minute break, we come back out 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.719 and we do about an hour and a half of 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:04.040 more music. It's a long show though, two and a 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.400 half hour show. Oh did you get a break though? 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:09.120 I mean we should just we should talk about this. 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:11.080 Five albums one night was three hours. 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:14.240 Well exactly whatever what happened after we got on tour 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:15.800 and it was like, oh no. 0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.160 I feel like we could play He doesn't make very 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:21.520 negative right now. I think I'm not being just being 0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:25.640 realistic about our Yeah, well our stamina. What else? What 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:27.240 else happened? You went on vacation. 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:29.720 I went on vacation. We went to the Bahamas again. 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.440 Because that's what low lights. What are some highlights? Low 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.680 light was the delayed flight. Highlight was getting there and 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.000 watching them like go on the water slides. Here's a 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:41.159 video of Valentina jumping off a cliff like they have 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:43.760 the air, no fear, into water, into a. 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.640 Little softball question this this won't be controversial at all, 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:50.200 any conflict with any fights or you know any. 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:53.000 I got a little heated one morning, so I had 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:57.560 the entire group going, Did I got a little down? 0:06:57.880 --> 0:06:58.599 People were talking? 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:02.640 It was nine, No, it was eight. And then Mikey joined, 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:05.080 By the way, great call. It's good to own a family. 0:07:05.160 --> 0:07:09.239 VAK and uncle showing up a little late brings a day. 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:11.880 In two days in perfect Yeah, it helps it like 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:15.200 re reduces the energy. Went down to breakfast because I 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.120 bring the girls down early because they're up and I'm 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:18.280 up because I was already at the gym. 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.920 Because what time we talked on nine o'clock? Are you 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:23.920 in the gym before that? Yeah? Damn, vac on vaca. 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:26.480 My body like wakes up. I went locked in. 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:28.840 I set up breakfast for everyone where we've been having 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:32.000 breakfast the last three days. Everybody else had a table 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:35.200 outside and eating ahead of us without inviting us, like 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.160 I invite everyone to meals. 0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:39.640 And just I'm gonna say, you're kind of hosting. I 0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:42.640 was a little uncouth as it were. 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:45.040 That was a low light. Then you got heated. Low light. Yeah, 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:45.559 I got heated. 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.600 And then I couldn't get a drink for like three 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.400 hours for some reason, they just wouldn't try to check 0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:51.720 on us. 0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:53.640 And so then that was like then I was really 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:55.560 drink are we talking about talking about? 0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:58.320 I need after all sprits and I couldn't get one 0:07:58.920 --> 0:07:59.320 got it. 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:01.800 So I started to rage and it became and then 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:03.160 I just had to go for a walk. I had 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:06.600 a low lit. I went on a yacht trip. Wait 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:08.640 a second, the fact that you just said I had 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:11.240 a low light. I went on a yacht trip. Well, 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.760 it's part of the yacht. Yacht trip had a low light, 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:16.640 which was It's kind of a both thing. It's like 0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:19.280 a yacht trip and you spend a lot of money 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.320 for the bad low light, which is it was a guest. 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:23.200 Actually I was a guest on the boat, so I'll 0:08:23.280 --> 0:08:27.160 jokes aside. I fell off a boat going onto a tender. 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.640 It was pretty pretty scary, stepped a little early that 0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:31.960 everyone said it was fine, and me and the first 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:34.680 mate like slipped between the two boats. It was pretty terrifying, 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:37.839 and I think I think the adrenaline was going and 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.040 there's like the element of embarrassment, and I think I 0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:42.280 pulled myself up on the smaller boat and I hit 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.400 my shin. But it was more just like terrifying, Like 0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:47.080 in a moment like that, you're like, so many things 0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:49.160 could have gone bad. I mean, other than like a 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.120 bruised shin. Like everybody's fine, but it was definitely one 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:52.760 of the moments like I want to call my kids 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:55.120 right now, mm hmm, like that's the first thing. I 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:58.400 just need to talk to them, and like pretty shook 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.400 for like a while. But also makes it some people 0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:02.800 are like, you're good, okay, yeah, Like you're like, yea, 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:04.360 I'm fine, even though you know you're not fine. But 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:06.160 I'm like I'm just trying to tell myself, I'm just 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:09.280 let it go. Move on. That being said, the trip 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.120 itself was a lot of fun. Did some day clubbing, 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:14.800 which was not something I do in my mid thirties, 0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:16.720 but that was fun. Like Nikki Beach, who is just 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:19.640 like a restaurant club, We're like halfway through the you're 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:21.880 eating little asagna and it's like you just hear like 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:28.880 crazy frog and then it's just that it's really fun 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:30.400 and you have to lean into it and it's a 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:30.719 good time. 0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:33.800 And also I was on the trip when we found 0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.440 out that we sold out these shows, so so good. 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:39.240 It was nice to have so pumped. 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:43.120 I have an update. It's neither a low light or 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:45.120 a highlight. It's just a general update. But it does 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.880 actually tie into the next piece of the conversation. So 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:51.080 let's call this a segue, if you will. I'm having 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:52.640 a Coke zero summer. 0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.000 You're back.

Oh yeah, 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.600 we've talked about to nails before on this podcast. You've 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.280 already reached the subject. Have we talked about the subject. 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:40.720 A conversation we had the other day about your toes 0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:42.880 being out because of the hobby on us. 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:45.680 M yeah, like grown men and flip flops or something. 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.040 I get it. I got paid for that, so shut up, 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:48.360 go on. 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:52.680 I rolled in for my audition at the church on 0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:54.319 Franklin Avenue in why coffee was not. 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.439 An audition for the church, he might break. The audition 0:12:57.520 --> 0:12:59.800 was at the church. Church church was an extension of 0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:00.160 the home. 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:02.960 Your father was a pastor at the Wycoff Assemblieve God. 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:06.120 And I brought my sisters back up because my sister's 0:13:06.240 --> 0:13:09.160 very affable, likable, and I thought that that would make 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:10.880 me look like a family man, and you guys were 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:11.520 a family so that. 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:12.599 Was going to give me a leg up on it. 0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:15.160 And beginning the facts. You were a delinquent, and yeah 0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:15.480 I was. 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:19.319 I was a bit of a delinquent. Yes, a black sheep, 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:22.559 if you will. Somehow ended up as the adult in 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:25.000 the room for the first few years of this journey. 0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:29.319 But I met Nick first. I was walking around the 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.320 church and Nick emerged out of the woods, which I 0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:35.080 thought was kind of strange, like a feral child bounding 0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.160 out of the woods. And he came up to me 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:40.680 and he gave me this very firm handshake, shook my hand. 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:43.880 I'm Nick it's very nice to meet you. I look 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:45.880 forward to playing music with you today. And I was like, 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:49.280 all right, man, he's twelve, twelve years old, and he 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:51.360 said he looked down at his feet. He was wearing 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:54.480 flip flops, and he said, excuse me, I have to 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:56.959 go back home and trim my toenails. I'll be right back, 0:13:57.120 --> 0:13:59.559 and he disappeared back into the woods. 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:04.800 What what was that? It ever being tested? This is 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:09.040 the moment. It's like, okay, yeah, this tiny man emerges 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:11.160 from the woods. I think there was a graveyard back 0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:12.199 in the way it was. 0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:15.440 We had a path through the woods that led from 0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:18.160 our backyard the parsonage to. 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:21.120 The church around another house. That's why I I rave 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:21.920 you specifically. 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:25.080 I was wearing flip flops, which I never did and 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:26.560 don't really to this day. 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:28.720 And I was so appalled when. 0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:31.520 I looked down at my own feet at how long 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:35.880 my toenails were. And I really am glad though that 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:37.320 that's our first interaction. 0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:39.680 It was a good one. It actually kind of was 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:44.560 a precursor to your relationship. Yeah, looking after each other's hygiene. Yeah, 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:48.960 person my collar before I leave the room.
