1
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: Welcome to my podcast Loves Someone, where I try to

2
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: share a little goodness, a little hope, a little inspiration

3
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: with each new episode. And welcome spring, Spring finally here.

4
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,080
Speaker 1: It's been a long time coming, hasn't it. But it's here.

5
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: Time to put the winter blues in our rear view

6
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: and turn our faces to the sun. There is much

7
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: to look forward to here on the farm. We've got

8
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: three new baby lambs, four new baby goats, two new calves.

9
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: We have a breed of cows called Highlanders, and two

10
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: of the Highlanders have baby cows, both of them little bulls.

11
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: The pastures have greened up, uh. The azelia blooms are brightening,

12
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: the garden beds, that cherry trees are blooming. I've even

13
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: got some early peas sending shoots up out of the ground.

14
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: It's a season of new life, to season of fresh beginnings.

15
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: I know that we are all eager to start a

16
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: new chapter in life. In fact, the Eastern season seems

17
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: a much better time than New Year's to make some resolutions.

18
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: If you have enjoyed your own cooking, I'll let all

19
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: too much. My hand is waving in the air over here.

20
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: Oh boy, the COVID fifteen we call it, or maybe

21
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: you haven't been as active as you need to be.

22
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 1: Then accept the invitation of the longer days. Go outside

23
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: and take a nice stroll. I've been trying to get

24
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: ten thousand steps a day in um really frustrated when

25
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: my phone shuts off because the battery's dead and it

26
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: doesn't log my steps. I'm like, that's not fair. I

27
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: did my steps. Maybe you should get a couple of

28
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: planter boxes and try your hand at growing some tomatoes

29
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: or salad, fixing some let us. You can't mess up

30
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,399
Speaker 1: growing let us, you really can't. Super easy. You will

31
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: be amazed at how much better veggies taste when you

32
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: raise them yourself, when they're picked and eat and fresh,

33
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: when there's no chemicals. There's no comparison to that at

34
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: your local grocer. Maybe you pick up a new hobby

35
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 1: this year, painting or creating. I recently had a phenomenal

61
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: Love Someone by country legend Tim McGraw, right after I

62
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: sing a little love song to our podcast sponsor, who

63
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: made this special program possible. You've heard me say that

64
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: it's when the sky is nightest that the stars are brightest,

65
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: but for many people around the world, it can be

66
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: hard to see the light amidst the darkness. Mercy Ships

67
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: is an organization that gives people renewed hope. Mercy Ships

68
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: turnships into floating hospitals and then sends them to the

69
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 1: poorest countries in the world to provide free surgeries that

70
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: save lives and change lives. They are transforming communities by

71
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: training local doctors who continue the good work long after

72
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: these ships leave board. This hope goes beyond patients and

73
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: their families. It also inspires surgeons, nurses, the entire team involved.

74
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: It's all sustained by the generosity of volunteers and donors,

75
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: and what's most amazing is that anyone can get involved.

76
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: I encourage you to visit Mercy Ships dot org slash

77
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,200

84
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: out all over the place. We've got to California and

85
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: one in New York. So we're bouncing around driving. We're

86
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: driving a lot because we don't want to fly right now,

87
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: so we're driving quite a bit to go visit girl.

88
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: So they they've been there all during the shutdown. They

89
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: were during the Christmas part. They were with us for

90
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: about four weeks and which was fantastic. We we never

91
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: left our house. We had all of our girls. They're

92
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: a couple of friends who were who were trusted and

93
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: tested and everything, and so we had, you know, a

94
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: group of it was me and like eight women. No,

95
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: no wonder, Tim McGrath, you are so good at sappy

96
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: love songs. No I need I need to. I'm gonna

97
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: cut a testosterone fueled, you know, rocking album next time.

98
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 1: I think after after all this, yeah, sure you are sure.

99
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: You are a couple of things. I want to talk

100
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: about your big project, your new release that I can't

101
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 1: wait to see because there's like the audio version, in

102
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: the video version, your digital deluxe version number one album,

103
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: Here on Earth. It's all coming together. You know. It's

104
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: one of those things that when we holidays, when um

105
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: Tyler Hud sent me Undivided, it's sort of changed our

106
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: whole program of what we were going to do. Um.

107
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 1: You know, we had a couple of singles that were

108
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: that we're ready to go and songs that we're ready

109
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: to go off the Here on Earth album, and then

110
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: when we found this song, Tyler sent it to me

111
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: and I asked him about it and he said, well,

112
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: I want you to cut it, and I'm like, well,

113
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: if we cut this song, I want you to do

114
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: it with me. And now it's really the only time

115
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: that we can do it because it's not going to

116
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: make as much sense down the road as it does now.

117
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: Now is when it's really sort of a cathartist and needed.

118
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: But you must have had people, I know you have

119
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: who have come to you and said, this song at

120
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: this time was so instrumental in my life, because well,

121
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: music has a way of doing that in all circumstances.

122
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: By the way, I think that music has always been

123
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: a healing bomb, a bomb for our soul in so

124
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: many circumstances in our lives, but in this particular circumstances,

125
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: it's a it's a matter of what is the best choice.

126
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: The best choice is to move forward with finding ways

127
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: that we can get along. That's what country has always

128
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: been built on. That's what our foundations have always built on.

129
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: Now that's what families have been built on. Families don't

130
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: even get along, but we move forward with love and

131
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: respect for each other and respect for each other's opinion.

132
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: And that's what this song means. Well, I love it,

133
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: love it, love it, love it, love it on so

134
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: many levels. And I can't wait to see this, uh,

135
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: this whole compilation because, like you said, there's a lot

136
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: of delicious little treats gravity from the free solo projects.

137
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: We want my favorite songs I've ever written, and one

138
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: of my favorite projects I've ever been part of, And

139
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: then to write a song with my wife and have

140
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: it be the closing credit songs of one of my

141
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: favorite movies I've ever done, The Shack, and what that

142
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: means to people, and what that book has meant to

143
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: people in and in turn, what that movie is meant

144
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: to people, and then in turn after that what that

145
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: song is meant to people? When I heard your sweet

146
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: voice narrating it, and then you know you're part in it,

147
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: and then and then the music, it just came together

148
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: so beautifully. Well, it's it's such a special message, you know,

149
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways that it takes you to places,

150
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: makes open your eyes the things that you may not

151
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: have considered. And to me, that's that's the most beautiful

152
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: thing about film in general and art in generalism when

153
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: it opens your eyes the things that you may not

154
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: have considered and put you in a position to question,

155
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: you know, what are what are are the real things

156
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: in my life? What are the things matter? What are

157
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: the things that really moved me? What are the things

158
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: that really that really are my eternal life? In a

159
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: lot of way, how do you? How do you what

160
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: do you look at as eternal life? Is that your

161
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: family is or your legacy that you leave? What are

162
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: the things that really makes you become aware and wake

163
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: you up to what your soul is? And I think

164
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: that that's what that book did. I think that's what

165
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: that movie did, and and we like to think that

166
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 1: that that's what our song did. Is being a part

167
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: of it. So Here on Earth is available when, Oh

168
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 1: you're asking our own guy, I'll tell you when, because

169
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: my sister sent me the notes April six. You're smarter

170
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: than you, way ahead of the game than I am.

171
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: Here on Earth Ultimate Edition and Here on Earth Ultimate

172
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: Video Edition. So is every song? Did you do a

173
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: video for every song? Every song? There's a few things,

174
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: you know, there's a few things on there that really

175
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: wanted it and really stood out that said that raised

176
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: it tan, that said that we needed to do something

177
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 1: special for this song. So not every song has it,

178
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: but we felt like it was a good idea to

179
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: put as much as we could visually visual content on

180
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 1: the record. And how many of those have visual content

181
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: of your beautiful wife? Oh, Josh, I don't you know.

182
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: I don't know that any of you. Oh my gosh, Tim,

183
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: what are you thinking? Well? I know, I mean, I

184
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: mean she can't. It's not just that she sings like

185
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: an angel. But you you, you've done good. She is

186
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: so faith ill Is is one of my favorite female

187
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: recording artists of all times. And even though she is

188
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: a knockout and and physically just lovely to behold and

189
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 1: look at um every time I've talked to her or

190
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: met her. She is as real and down to earth

191
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: as anybody you could ever meet. On She's the best.

192
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: She's the best all the way around. I mean I

193
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 1: and I, like Brett Farve told me when Faith and

194
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: I got married, he said, son, you way out putting

195
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: your coverage, not just physically, but in every way. I mean,

196
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: she is spiritually, emotionally, um as a human being, as

197
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: an artist, in every single way she she exceeds me,

198
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: and that makes me want to be better. Whatever you

199
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: guys are doing, you're doing, you're doing it right, You're

200
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: doing it well. And I think your your kids in

201
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: your life is a testimony to all that we'll we

202
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: we do have some great kids. I mean, we are

203
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: really proud of our daughters and we're proud of the

204
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: sprint that they have and in the way that they're

205
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: willing to stand up for themselves and other people and

206
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 1: for us that that's that's a testament to the in

207
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: parances our kids haven't the freedom to feel to do

208
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: the things that they feel. All right, what different paths

209
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: have they decided to pursue. Maggie or a middle daughter,

210
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: is finishing up her master's program. At Stanford, which is

211
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: fantastic and we're still proud of her. And then our

212
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: youngest is in New York City and she's an actress

213
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: um sort of working a job now as a production

214
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: assistant on a on a cable TV program and waiting

215
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: for the world open up so she can pursue her career.

216
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 1: So all slackers just you know, not really doing anything.

217
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: I'm probably the slacker in our family. I got to

218
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: get up every morning and motivate myself. Yeah, yeah, that's that.

219
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 1: The slacker is exactly the word that I would attach

220
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: to you, Jim McGrath. Not not when I look at

221
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: all the projects you've been involved within, all the music,

222
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: and all the charities that you support and and just

223
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: all the goodness that you pour into the world, you

224
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: were anything but a slackers. We feel so blessed and

225
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: fortunate and and you know, we all know that anything

226
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: good comes from working hard, and anything good will go

227
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: away if you don't work hard. So we we we

228
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: believe in working hard in our family and trying to

229
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: do the best that we can for everybody around. And

230
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: it's been a tough year. It's been a tough year

231
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: for everybody. It works for us. It's been a tough

232
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: year for our road crew, it's been a tough here

233
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: for our extended family. So um we we and humbled

234
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways to see out there and

235
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: see the hard work and the resilience and and the

236
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: care that people take with each other. You know, when

237
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: when we started, when all these things started happening, and

238
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: and everybody's trying to social distance and trying to get

239
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: music to everybody and still trying to to try to,

240
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: you know, be present. I mean, how many times have

241
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: you gone on Instagram and see some an artist singing

242
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: in front of a fireplace? And I'm guilty enough to

243
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: say that I've done it probably five or six times.

244
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: I feel like we're all kind of in this limbo

245
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: and in this negativity. And if I can pour some

246
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: joy and pour some of God's love and faith and

247
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: goodness into the world for half an hour an hour day, uh,

248
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: you know, I want to do that. And it's been

249
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: creative to see how people have come together, and especially

250
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: the artistic community, to come together and put music forward

251
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: and try to uplift people's spirits during all this time.

252
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: But I can tell you you feel the same way.

253
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: None of us can wait until we can go out

254
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: and play a lot. I know, please, please please let

255
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: us get back to our life. Because you can watch movies,

256
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: you can do all sorts of things, but there is nothing,

257
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: I mean, there is nothing that replaces live music in

258
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: that collective experience that that happens when everyone sort of

259
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: signs this mutual contract that they're going in and s

260
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: spending reality for two hours and having a great time

261
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: and what we need at what do we miss that?

262
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: And I think that once we have a chance to

263
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: do that again, I think everybody's going to go see everybody,

264
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: even people they don't like, they're going to go see

265
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: just because they want to hear love music again. Well,

266
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: I can't wait for that. Thank you, Tim for spending
