00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,479

Speaker 1: how do you know the rock? Dude? It's kind of weird.

12
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: So you know, the Rock has real Nashville roots, like

13
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: super Nashville roots. So he was like, I think it

14
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: went to mcgaviick. So he just keeps his finger on

15
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: the pulse of Nashville like he's just like engulfed in

16
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: the culture. And I think, like a song on my

17
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: random he came up on his play. It's like the

18
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,599
Speaker 1: most random occurrence ever. And somebody reached sounds like, Yo,

19
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: the Rock's gonna post saw a video with one of

20
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,239
Speaker 1: your songs. I was like, please don't play with me.

21
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: It's like, don't do that to me. It was like,

22
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: I swear to God, this was like four or five

23
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 1: years six years ago, and he sure did. And ever

24
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: since then we stayed in touch. Man, he was the

25
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: first person to congratulate me whenever I got invited to

26
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: the Grand Old Library and he congratulated you. How he

27
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: sent me a voice He sends like the voice memos.

28
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: That's like his thing. You know, He'll like, you got

29
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: a voice memo from the Rock Yeah, yeah, for sure,

30
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: I want to play it, but I don't want to

31
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: be that guy. Yeah. I mean I said, I listened

32
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: to it every now and then myself. It's like it's

33
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: like my pre workout before I go get drunk, because

34
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: I don't work out, so right before I go to

35
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: a bar, I'll listen to like a voice memo from

36
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 1: the Rocket Black. Let's go jelly rolls with us. Let's

37
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: talk about for the audience that hasn't come across your

38
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: music yet or who you are, Like, what's up with

39
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: the name jelly roll? So I'm obviously looked a part

40
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 1: And my mother named me that whenever I was a

41
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: little chubby kid, been fat my whole life, and she

42
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: tried to calling me jelly Roll when I was young,

43
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: and I spent the next thirty years trying to grow

44
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: into the name. I think I've done it, and yeah,

45
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: just stuck. And then I had a guy in high

46
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: school that jokingly called me jelly Roll. He didn't know

47
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: that was my house name. And his name was one

48
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: arm Clay and you won't believe it that he had

49
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: one arm and uh, one arm Clay was like, we

50
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: should call you jelly Roll. I'm one arm Clay and

51
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: you'll be jelly I was like, my mama calls me

52
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: jelly Roll. And then once the high school starts calling

53
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: you something, you know that's that's the kid in kaboodle.

54
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: And so when did you start doing music? I started

55
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: writing songs whenever I was like seven or eight. In

56
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: the words of Brantley Gilbert, I didn't know I could sing,

57
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: but I knew I could talk fast, So I wrote

58
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: a lot of raps. What did it for me was

59
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: my mother stroll. First of all, my mother follows this

60
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: show and she only follows like six people, and I

61
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: don't even think I'm one of them. I think it's

62
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: like my three aunts, some dude that she shouldn't be

63
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,839
Speaker 1: following that has a six pack in the Bobby Bones Show.

64
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: So if you want to put me on y'all's Instagram,

65
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: that'd be fine. But uh yeah, just kind of just

66
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: kind of came that way. So I do want to

67
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 1: play some of the song because it's such a good song.

68
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: This is called Son of a Singer, and I'm gonna

69
00:02:47,120 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: play it for you now from jelly roll. So it's

70
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: kind of a different approach from you from what I've heard,

71
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: Like this is very emotional you're singing it's I mean,

72
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: it's a country song, Like why create this song in

73
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: this way? Well, I had a record. I've always wrote

74
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: very cathartic music. My mother struggled with addictions and mental

75
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: health issues when I was younger. She's a totally different

76
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: woman now. But Bobby, she would listen to music and

77
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 1: it would change everything. You know. She'd put old records

78
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: on it, smoked cigarettes and that old mumu and sit

79
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: at the kitchen table and just white trashes could be

80
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: just singing along to Bob Seeg or Wayland Jennens, and

81
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: I just remember thinking, man, I want to make music

82
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: that makes people feel like this music makes my mother feel,

83
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: you know. Had my mother had help from a doctor

84
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: I might have been a surgeon and had a six

85
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: pack and been called slim totem or something, but it's

86
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: it just turned out the other way. So I've always

87
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: kind of wrote real songs for real People's been my goal,

88
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: and the country thing was just kind of me leaning

89
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: into my roots. I was born and raised right here

90
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: in Nashville. You know, it's every kid's dream in Nashville

91
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: to some sort to be a country music artist. And

92
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: it just kind of happened organically. Men Ernest were in

93
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: the studio about as high as a hippie, about three

94
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: sheets gone, and picked up a guitar, and there it went.

95
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: When you played the opera, I think it was in

96
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: the last year twenty one, right, that'd be a special moment,

97
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: especially growing up here in Nashville. Yeah, it's like not

98
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: only the historic side of country music, but it's the

99
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: side of like driving by there my whole life, dude.

100
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: I remember the grand old Opry House from the Screaming

101
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: Delta Demon at Opery Land at his old school Nashville Talk.

102
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: Before that Whack Mall was at Mall Sucks. Before that

103
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: mall was there, it was a theme park, you know

104
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: what I mean. So we would watch it from the

105
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: theme park. Dude. It was like I just remember as

106
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: a kid, just thinking, man, and yeah, it was just

107
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: like a dream come true on all fronts. Did your

108
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: family think it was super cool that you were performing

109
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: in that circle? Oh yeah, dude. My mother came, My

110
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: whole family came. It was a white trash bash. Dude.

111
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: We were all there. Everybody wore their son best man.

112
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: You should have seen. I bought a sports coat. It

113
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: was big, dude. It's a big deal. Man. My daughter

114
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: got dressed up. It was huge for us. We don't

115
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: dress up like that for funerals or weddings. I mean,

116
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 1: it was that big of a deal. Were you nervous?

117
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: I'm nervous now. This whole thing is unreal. Do you

118
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: got a real I'm a kid that was spent most

119
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: of his juvenile life in jail. Dude, you are the

120
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: Joe Rogan of country music. I am sitting on this

121
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: is I am here? You know what I mean? It's

122
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: like I was. Do you think I'm nervous of all this?

123
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to cuss, but yeah, this

124
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: is all My nervousness makes me want to start spouting

125
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: out of the mouth. What is it about now that

126
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean, because you're I'll just say, you're kind of

127
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: blowing up more mainstream than ever. Like, what is it

128
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: about this chapter of your life that is creating this

129
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: for you now? I think it's the ten year overnight

130
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: success tore right, It's the kid that slept in a

131
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: van and did two hundred and thirty shows a year

132
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: for one hundred dollars a show. Dude, I used to

133
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: open up for a pack of bubble gum and a

134
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: bag of bud, you know what I mean. So it's like,

135
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: I think it's just years of writing a foul and

136
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: songs and thousands of songs and just kind of coming here.

137
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I think it's getting the opportunity

138
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: to sit in places like this and tell my story.

139
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: That's probably helping the most, because when you look at me,

140
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: you probably don't expect to hear from me what you hear,

141
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: you know, So what is your story? I mean, if

142
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: someone said, hey, man, we're thinking about doing a book

143
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: with you, right, are you considering it? I well, let's

144
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: let's hear your stories. What is and you know you

145
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: can tight it up a bit, but what is your

146
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: story that you think inspire so many people. I want

147
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,000

00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: That's the reason that I make the kind of music

156
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: I make now. And at about the age of fourteen,

157
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: I started making a decision, series of decisions that would

158
00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: lead to what we call the revolving door of the

159
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: judicial system. And I spent probably twelve years in and

160
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 1: out of that system, probably nine years in, three years out,

161
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: you know, the old due a year in three months home,

162
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 1: two years in four months home kind of thing. And

163
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: I won't even talk about the crimes because I don't

164
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,679
Speaker 1: think there's no glory in them, and I'm not proud

165
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: of them, but it is a part of my story,

166
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: and it's also too many to list on this show.

167
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, man, I had a Damascus Road experience in

168
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: the old Baptist term. On May twenty second, two thousand

169
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: and eight, I was at CS on Harden Place, right

170
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: down the street from here. I was in sail two

171
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: twenty three, and a guard knocked on my door and

172
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: had told me that I had had a daughter. And

173
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: I knew that I had heard that I had got

174
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: a young woman pregnant during one of my outs or ends,

175
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: I guess in that case, but I had. But when

176
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: I was back in jail, the baby was born, and

177
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: I just remember thinking, man, you know, I had a

178
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: good father. He was a hustler, but he was a

179
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: really good man. And I was like, I want to

180
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: be a good father, you know. And I didn't. I

181
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: didn't have any skill sets. I'd never had a job.

182
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm still to this day not qualified to do much

183
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: more than talk to you and sing. And I was like, well,

184
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: I know I can do music. So I came home

185
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: and started selling CDs off of spindles and mix tapes

186
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,239
Speaker 1: out of trunks and doing shows and you know, selling

187
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: a little bag of bud here and there when I

188
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: had to. But I've got away from real criminal, nefarious activities,

189
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: and uh yeah, I just kind of led to here,

190
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: and now I'm sitting here at the Bobby Bone show,

191
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: you know, ready to talk to lunchbox about drinking tequila?

192
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: Are you a big tequila drinker? Oh? Good? Is that

193
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: the drink boy? Listen, It's like when you blow the

194
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: whistle of the dog. Here's and he's the only one

195
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,199
Speaker 1: of the room that hears it. Can we are we

196
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: shooting something? You got something? Not this? I thought this

197
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: is where you bust out the bottle like well, coincidentally,

198
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: the Rocks sent us some terra mind. I was gonna

199
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 1: be like, yes, you have a lot of face tattoos,

200
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: have many on your face? I never counted. Well, if

201
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: I'm guessing, well, some of them connect, right, And you

202
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: have to commit to your first face tattoo. Is that

203
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: a big decision? I was too young to commit to

204
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,079
Speaker 1: anything when I did that. For what it's worth, what

205
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: was the first one? I think I had the cross

206
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: in the tear drop at the same time when I

207
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: was one of my stints on a state funded vacation.

208
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: Oh you had him done in prison? Oh yeah, I

209
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: doesn't seem safe, no, no, no, But it's that it's

210
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: the safest thing there. You think that's not safe. You

211
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: see the stuff that happens imprisoning that right there is

212
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: great a safety, buddy. Let me tell you that that

213
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: would pass the commission to CDC, would have proved compared

214
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: to the other stuff happening in there. Well, you have

215
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: a rose up near your I do, above your left eye.

216
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: It connects down to what is that? It's a heart

217
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: would a locket And at this point you've seen it

218
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: so many times it's probably just your face right. Well,

219
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: I see it backwards too, So you know, you gotta

220
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: think when you're telling me something's on, I don't know

221
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: what side what's on? You have one that goes down

222
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: Bobby Bones is reading man, Listen, I'm being real. I

223
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: wanted to describe. He also has one that's like a

224
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,719
Speaker 1: straight line going down into his left eye. It comes

225
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: down below always the clown. Yeah, what's the word above

226
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: the eyebrow? Son? Noah, okay, yeah. And this is ignorance

227
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: on my part. But we've always heard the teardrops, Like,

228
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: if you have a teardrop and it's not filled in, well,

229
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: I'm just asking, I don't know ignorance. You can teach

230
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: me if it's not filled in. You attempted to kill

231
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:21,239
Speaker 1: someone and unsuccessful. If it's filled in, it was a success.

232
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 1: No comment, that's why you don't. I'm minor for the tears,

233
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: would never forget. We shared see powerful jelly rolls in studio,

234
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 1: by the way is which By the way, dead Man

235
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: Walking number one rock song as of today. I thought,

236
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: that's why we're shooting to Kaylan. You you muff the

237
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: punt most added dead Man Walking number one on the

238
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 1: rock chart. Do we have a clip at that ray

239
00:10:54,160 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: same album? Here it is and you would you consider

240
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 1: yourself first and foremost a hip hop artist? No, no, no, dude,

241
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: I consider myself a singer songwriter. I guess I just

242
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: knew you from doing hip hop first stuff. I know,

243
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: ain't that crazy, and it's you being a hip hop

244
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: artist and then the rock stuff and now the country stuff.

245
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: But I think that's that's the attitude, like you're just

246
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: creating based on what you feel. Just make just make

247
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: real music for real people. I call a therapeutic music

248
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: by it. It's just important. Some music's meant to be

249
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: heard and some music's meant to be felt, and I

250
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: hyper focus on making music to people can feel, you know,

251
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: it's kind of the Willie Nelson effect. I'm a he

252
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: wasn't big, but I'm a big, jovial guy in real life,

253
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, kind of a hippie. But Willie wrote the

254
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: saddest songs, and I feel like that's kind of where

255
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: when I get in that studio, my wife calls it

256
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: my uh confessional booth. It's kind of my therapy. Do

257
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: you ever confessed something? And she's like, I didn't know that. No, no, no, dude,

258
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: we're best friends. Dude, I can't surprise that one with anything.

259
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: I wish I could surprise her. We've lost all surprise.

260
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: She helps me find bulls on my butt. I mean,

261
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: we're as close as you could be. Boils on his butt,

262
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: Like they're so close, she'll look to find them. The watch,

263
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: the watch a screaming at me. Why thank you? Like

264
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: that I was hoping it would. Is that's that real? Yes, sir,

265
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: well no, in casebody wants to hit me in the

266
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: head later, It depends on who's as. I mean, that

267
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: is a watch and it looks loaded with diamonds. Yes, sir,

268
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: like that is. My wife bought me this back to

269
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: her shout out to my wife, Bunny. I love her

270
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 1: to death. And your wife's name is Bunny Bun and

271
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: I e and is that is like jelly roll Bunny?

272
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: Or is her name really Bunny? Her name is Bunny. Yeah,

273
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: she was Bunny before me. So you ever think about

274
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: changing your name officially to jelly Roll so it could

275
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: be your legal name. I've thought about it, but I

276
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: just I don't. You know, I don't like going, I

277
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: don't like paperwork. You probably could imagine. Yeah, I've considered

278
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: making Bones my real middle name so I can use

279
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: it or if I run for office and I can

280
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: officially use it when you run for office? Can I

281
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: be your running mate? Can? Did I get a book deal?

282
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: And as a running mate show? I'm blown away by this.

283
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: This is more than I ever expected. What are your

284
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: life shows like? Like? Incredible? Okay, let me brag for

285
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: a second. And I'm a humble guy, but man, we

286
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: turn that thing upside down. It is The live shows

287
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: cover everything from old classic rock to hip hop to country,

288
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,719
Speaker 1: the soul. We do a little motown in there. I mean,

289
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 1: it is an incredible show. It's a live band, two guitars,

290
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: bass DJ to keep the old school hip hop element

291
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: alive and well more of an MC than a DJ.

292
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: But he'll still scratch a little bit here and there drums.

293
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: We do it right. Adding a steel player this year,

294
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna be fire. You're adding a steel player. We are.

295
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: That's awesome. We got a full blown country album in

296
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: the works. Baby, This wasn't this, you know, make no mistake.

297
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: It looks like a toe tap. But I'm gonna do

298
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: a cannonball in the country music bubba. I'm on the way.

299
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: I'm belly flopping. I saw that you and Branley are

300
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: doing some shows together. One of my favorite dudes on earth.

301
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: So how did Branley Gilbert? I guess he got in

302
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: touch with you and said, hey, come do some shows

303
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: with me. Yeah. He called me one night, which was

304
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: like the craziest call ever. But I kept hearing around town,

305
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: Hey man, you need to meet Branley Gilbert. Man, y'all

306
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: look like y'all get in trouble and I love people

307
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: all get in trouble with And everybody kept telling him, hey,

308
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: have you met Jelly Roll? Y'all should meet, And he finally,

309
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 1: you know, I guess where A traveled. He called and say, hey,

310
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: I want to do some shows next summer. And what's

311
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: crazy is I had done a podcast with my wife

312
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: a couple of years earlier, and I was like, when

313
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 1: it comes to doing shows, I think artists missed the

314
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: old school approach of like doing it for people and

315
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: doing it for the exposure. So I was like, if

316
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: this was two years ago, my wife's podcast, three years ago,

317
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: I said, if Brantley Gilbert kid Rockers Shined Down called me,

318
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: I would not even ask what the amount of money was.

319
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: I'd say, yes, I want to go on tour with them.

320
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: And I'm literally doing thirty dates with Shine Down this

321
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: year in like ten dates with Brandley Gilbert. That's cool. Yeah,

322
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: it was just a complete manifestation. So I'm looking at

323
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: you and you're in black and you got the chains

324
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: on and the face tattoos and the Blaine. Do you

325
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: know we've met before? Oh yeah, no, I see you. Listen.

326
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: I tried to make them turn the golf cart around

327
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: and chase you, but we've met and I didn't want to.

328
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: I've met Jelly Well playing golf before. Yeah. I was

329
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: texting to say, this is the most memory I have

330
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: was I was with Steve Hodges from Sony right, and

331
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: he's like playing golf on a nice course. Yeah yeah,

332
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: I didn't want to blogs fine, like I've seen Jelly

333
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: role playing in a nice golf course. Oh yeah, So

334
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: are you Are you a big golfer? Well, I'm I'm

335
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: big in golf, but I am not a big golfer.

336
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: I'm not a good golfer. But I really I enjoy

337
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: anything that you can have a cocktail at nine am

338
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: and people don't judge you. And golf is that sport.

339
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: We've all been out there with an old man that

340
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: ordered a jack and coke at eight fifteen in the morning.

341
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: Nobody says nothing that old man except that's awesome, right.

342
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: That only happens on tour and a golf course. You know,

343
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: when I saw you with a big record guy, what

344
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: are you guys talking about this project now? Or no,

345
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: we're just having life. No, I was already I'd already

346
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: signed with Broken Boat at that time, and we were

347
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: just you know, I love hig just man. He's a

348
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: good dude, and you know I've got a you know,

349
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: just good dude man. He's fine to golf with. We

350
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: played good together. And I'll also gas him and get

351
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: him drunk on that back nine, and I think people

352
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: intentionally bring me out on days when they want to

353
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: get loose. Whenever you have to go to the golf course,

354
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: though you know it's talked in you get you because

355
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: I saw you looking like a golfer, Yes, sir, does

356
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: that feel foreign with the collared shirt? Oh? Yeah, I'd

357
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: never look goof here. Yeah, I've never looked goof here. Man.

358
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I don't wear collared church for nothing,

359
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: but the opera. I didn't even wear them the court.

360
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: How many times do you think you've been the court? Oh? Fifty, easy,

361
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 1: one hundred. I couldn't even imagine. If we get serious

362
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: for a second, what would you say to a kid

363
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: now that's listening to this at fourteen fifteen years old,

364
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: that maybe is not growing up in the most ideal

365
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: situation and has to make some tough choices right now

366
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: like you did. Man, it's if we can get serious

367
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: about that subject. We're doing a show later in Nashville

368
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: this year, big show, and I'm donating one hundred percent

369
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: of the money from the show to help build a

370
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: music program in the juvenile here in Davidson County. And

371
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: I'm matching it with my own money. Dollar for dollar,

372
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: So you're raising money and then matching the money you raise. Yes, sir,

373
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: I believe artists need to start stroking a check man.

374
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: I hate when artists just want to fundraise and they

375
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: don't want to reach in their old, precious bank account.

376
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: Put your money where your mouth is, you know. And

377
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: why is that important to you? Because I think these kids.

378
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: When I was in juvenile, Bobby, nobody ever came to

379
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,479
Speaker 1: talk to me that I understood, right, God bless them.

380
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: The Gideons would come and they'd slide a Bible under

381
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: the door, and I appreciate that because I read that

382
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: Bible a thousand times and they go, God bless you,

383
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 1: young man. But you know, it was an eighty year

384
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: old dude with a suit and tie that was disconnected

385
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: by a door. Nobody comes to and gives these kids hope.

386
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,479
Speaker 1: And I've been to the adult prison and I've been

387
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: to the juvenile prison. The adult prison is full of

388
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: a bunch of grown mens who need to figure out

389
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 1: a way to break a cycle. The juvenile is full

390
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: of a bunch of young kids that don't think they

391
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: know any better. They don't know any better, you know.

392
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: And I'm a big advocate for justice reform because when

393
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 1: I was sixteen, I made a decision that I'm not

394
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: proud of, but ended up getting charged as an adult.

395
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 1: And here I stand in front of you, twenty years

396
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: removed from that decision. I'm not allowed to carry a firearm.

397
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: I'm not allowed to vote. I just had to fight

398
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 1: tooth and nail to get a passport. I'm missing millions

399
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: of dollars in Canada that I'll never be able to

400
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: go get because of a decision I made twenty years ago.

401
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: I was sixteen years old, dude. I mean, I don't

402
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 1: know if I can say this, but I hadn't even

403
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: started sprouting hair down there, you know, and here I

404
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 1: was being charged as a full blown act. I couldn't

405
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: buy a pack of cigarettes, but you justified my criminal

406
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: act is enough to charge me as an adult. I'm

407
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 1: super passionate about that. These kids need chances, they need

408
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: to see outside of their environment. I have people right

409
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: now barby that are from my neighborhood that never left

410
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: my neighborhood. They watched the Tennessee Titans on TV, and

411
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: I call them Now that I'm successful, I'm like, I'll

412
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: take you to a game they're like, no, I'm cool.

413
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know that stadium's eleven minutes from your house,

414
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 1: never seen it? They don't know anything past that environment.

415
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: Nobody ever comes through and tries to help these kids, man,

416
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm the most passionate about, and that's

417
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: what i want to help with the most. And I'm

418
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: gonna put my money where my mouth is when it

419
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: comes to it. What about your kids? How do you

420
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: plan to be a good dad and use what you've

421
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: been through as an example to your kids. My daughter

422
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: is almost will be fourteen this month, and her mother

423
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: had got into about with heroin and had a rough

424
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: addiction and we ended up getting custoed of her. Her

425
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: ma I wife eight or nine years ago. I have

426
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 1: my daughter all the time. She flies out on weekends.

427
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I've seen her this morning on the way

428
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: to school. I'll be the first thing she sees when

429
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: she comes home from school. And to me, parenting is

430
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 1: just about honesty, you know, It's just about being really

431
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: honest and having an open dialogue. These kids are exposed

432
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: to stuff so much faster than we were because of

433
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 1: the Internet. Dude, back whenever I wanted to get a

434
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: little risky. I had to go put together pieces of magazines, right,

435
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: you know, I had to go find them in various spots.

436
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: You know, these kids are exposed to so much stuff,

437
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: and to me, it's just about being honest and having

438
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: a dialogue. My daughter is like I called her my

439
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,719
Speaker 1: little road dog. That's my little homie, you know, that's

440
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: my little best friend. And we talked like that, and

441
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: every now and then, you gotta be dad, you gotta

442
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: growl and show your teeth. But ultimately it's just about

443
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: bringing her along the way and keeping as close as

444
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: you can, just kind of watching it grow. Sounds like

445
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 1: honesty is a massive part of who you are. Yeah,

446
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: but you know I lunchboxes met me outside of here.

447
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: The same guy that's sitting here, The same guy was there.

448
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: You know where you guys meet. Well, softball. We played

449
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 1: softball together and we drank a lot. We did it,

450
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: so I was I was excited to bring this up.

451
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: Do you think you play softball? You play golf? Yea,

452
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: Where are you doing the equestrian, dude, I'm an oversize Listen,

453
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: I am an athlete in an alcoholic's body. Bobby, I'm

454
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: trying to tell you man, I have I had a bomb,

455
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,120

Speaker 1: gotta you have a great message. I think you can

469
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: speak to the people that you want to speak to.

470
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 1: And again, you're probably one of the only people that can,

471
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: you know, because unless you come from something, you almost

472
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: don't want to listen to people lecture you. You know,

473
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: I'm from a very small town in Arkansas, and it's

474
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: like people don't understand unless they've experienced it, right, So

475
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: I appreciate your message, and I think you're probably reaching

476
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: a lot of people when others can't so, and you

477
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: have to go through a lot to actually get that

478
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: message and gather those tools. But man, it's good to

479
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: see you here. I feel good, dude. I'm a huge

480
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: fan of the show. My mom is a fan of

481
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 1: the show. We're all like, this is a big deal. Man.

482
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: We're keeping up with the big acting debut and I'm

483
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: looking forward to drinking with Lunchbox again. I'm totally in

484
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: the know of this show. This isn't I didn't do

485
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: research on the way in. I literally I've seen Luke

486
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: Combs sit in his seat and I was like, we're

487
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: getting close. I'm bigger than Luke, but it looks like

488
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: he's comfortable in it. So now that I'm in it,

489
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: I feel great and I'd love to come back and

490
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: talk a ken. And one thing you're always going to

491
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: get from me, Bobby, for better or worse, it's honest

492
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: and real. And I do want to be a voice

493
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 1: for the voiceless. I do want to help the people

494
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,400
Speaker 1: that know the music's here to help, and I think

495
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: that's what music did for me to this day, music

496
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 1: helps me through my darkest moments. We got three minutes

497
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 1: of songwriters to change the way people feel, or to

498
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: ride with them in the darkest moment or the best

499
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: moment of their life. And I take those three minutes

500
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: more than I more serious and I take anything else

501
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: in my life. I appreciate that. And at jelly roll

502
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:20,920
