Speaker 1: hey man, this is can you wear this? I don't
Speaker 1: want to wear it at while I'm playing it so
Speaker 1: lible to fly off, you know, And I was like,
Speaker 1: oh yees, So I just grabbed it, popped it on

Speaker 1: left wrist, so I'm double watching now, right. So we
Speaker 1: watched a couple songs of Luke. We know the guy,
Speaker 1: We've seen the show a thousand times. We love him. Well,
Speaker 1: let's go eat some crawls. Let's go eat some crawfish.
Speaker 1: We'll catch him after the thing right here, So we

Speaker 1: crawfish I've ever happened. You ever played jazz Fest New Orleans?

Speaker 1: one point.
Speaker 4: There had been in I think an offer. Perhaps it

Speaker 1: But no. Okay, So as I'm walking, as we're walking
Speaker 1: to get to grab our crawfish and chocolate ice cream,
Speaker 1: we are not the same time. But you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. If you did the crawfish and chocolate, it's amazing.
Speaker 1: As we're walking, this guy passes, you know, because it's
Speaker 1: a very tight quarter. So he's slide by me and
Speaker 1: I hear him whisper as he goes by me. What
Speaker 1: a douche, And I was like, did you hear ray laugh?
Speaker 1: Did he laugh in there? And I was like, does
Speaker 1: that get a gobble? Well, I don't know, na, that'll
Speaker 1: probably pass. So so as he passes me, I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I wonder who that guy was talking to. And I
Speaker 1: was like, well, he was real close to me. Was
Speaker 1: he talking to me?
Speaker 2: And I turned around like to kind of check him
Speaker 2: or whatever. And by the time I turned around, he
Speaker 2: was already kind of sliding through the crowd, you know,
Speaker 2: because it was a giant crowd.
Speaker 1: And I turned back around. I was like, he wasn't
Speaker 1: talking to me. I was like, I'm not.
Speaker 2: And then I remembered I had two watches on, and
Speaker 2: I was like, yep, he was definitely talking to me.
Speaker 2: And I was a douche like if you don't understand the.
Speaker 1: And then I was like, wait, no, this is my
Speaker 1: my buddies. You can't even and I was like and
Speaker 1: I just kept on walking. It's pretty great.
Speaker 2: So if you wear two watches and you get caught
Speaker 2: a douche, turns out you actually are one the the guy.
Speaker 2: We told that story, and somebody told us that one
Speaker 2: of the guys on shark tanks or shark tank.
Speaker 1: What's it called shark tanks?

Speaker 1: time taking your kids.
Speaker 5: All.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I went when I was like in high
Speaker 2: school or something. But yeah, if you if you planted
Speaker 2: around a little bit of rain, cheat code there.
Speaker 1: We literally didn't wait in the line at all.
Speaker 2: Some of the some of the rides we had them
Speaker 2: like most of the part we had to ourselves. You
Speaker 2: just pun showed them and bro, you just walked around
Speaker 2: wherever you went, wanted to go, and whatever you wanted
Speaker 2: to ride.
Speaker 1: And we had a ball.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 2: Uh, my little girl turned three. There were all these
Speaker 2: like kid rides. My little two year old, he's almost two.
Speaker 2: He was shorter than the minimum required high if we
Speaker 2: just we just kind of packed him around and told her.
Speaker 2: But it was his birthday and everybody let him ride
Speaker 2: rides and.
Speaker 1: Really even like unsafely what's the word. There's probably a
Speaker 1: couple that were unsafe. But he had a ball, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. It's kind of locked him down,
Speaker 1: that is what he wrote. He rode the river raft
Speaker 1: thing where you're like going down the thing the water's
Speaker 1: flying in on you.
Speaker 2: And I videoed it and he's just kept a little
Speaker 2: strap across him and he's tiny sitting there.
Speaker 1: We had a ball.
Speaker 4: It's I think, I think, in my opinion, like the
Speaker 4: two to five range is I think that was my favorite.
Speaker 4: Really really yeah, it's it's they're little enough to still
Speaker 4: want to like come crawling your lap and snuggle and
Speaker 4: all that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're they're big enough to.
Speaker 6: Be like tell you what they want, yeah, like my
Speaker 6: butt itches, yeah, pizza, yeah, you know, yeah, I guess
Speaker 6: that could be mine what you're mad at.
Speaker 1: And but because I'm also glad about it at the
Speaker 1: same time, as.
Speaker 2: Like, my three year old is a boy and he's obsessed.
Speaker 2: He's obsessed with.
Speaker 1: Me right now, and that's that's really great. There's that,
Speaker 1: the great outweighs the negative of that. But like, I mean,

Speaker 1: maybe give me Can I have three minutes to wrap
Speaker 1: this up? You know? No, you cannot and you will not.
Speaker 4: You will not, And that never goes away and never no,

Speaker 2: Oh, it's the biggest one we've called out that spot.
Speaker 1: Wow, it's a big fish. It was a big one. Man.
Speaker 2: Somebody told me a long time agoes twenty acre late,
Speaker 2: so he said, he said, if you're trying to grow
Speaker 2: big fish, big bass, you're trying to get fish over
Speaker 2: six seven eight pounds. He said, for every acre, take
Speaker 2: out twenty five pounds a small fish.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a bass.
Speaker 5: Absolutely.
Speaker 2: So that's what we've been trying to do for the
Speaker 2: past few years. And I've lived there for almost four
Speaker 2: or four years, going on five years. Yeah, And every
Speaker 2: year we've tried to take out as close to three
Speaker 2: hundred I think that's three hundred and twenty five pounds
Speaker 2: of bass or something like that. We try to do
Speaker 2: that every year, and and and I think honestly, I do.
Speaker 2: I think it's paying off now because I think we're catching.
Speaker 2: We've already caught. He's caught a ten. I caught it
Speaker 2: like a seven and a half this year. He caught
Speaker 2: four or five over five last week and one one fishing,
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, a six pound crappie test.
Speaker 1: To coming on.
Speaker 4: You know what's beautiful about that picture? That's everybody's boat,
Speaker 4: and that's everybody's dad's literally saw my dad in the boat.
Speaker 5: There.
Speaker 1: That's beautiful. Get it in the tank. It doesn't even
Speaker 1: fit in the live oil. It's a monster. It took
Speaker 1: a bunch of pictures and turn it loose. No goodness,
Speaker 1: I can tell you man, that works.
Speaker 5: The listen.
Speaker 4: That is my hobby. That is what I do. And
Speaker 4: whenever we're at home, I can tell you this. Right now,
Speaker 4: I have an order for Readier brim to feed my
Speaker 4: bass and my my big bas tank, because I make
Speaker 4: sure my big bass tank has nothing but the hogs
Speaker 4: in it, and I pull all the little bass out
Speaker 4: and I either catch them, you know, fry them up,
Speaker 4: or move them to another tank.
Speaker 5: And I've got my catfish over here in this tank.
Speaker 5: And then the.
Speaker 4: Crappie go everywhere because they're like rabbits, So it's it's
Speaker 4: a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: You're right.
Speaker 4: The I heard the same thing, you know, pulling about
Speaker 4: twenty five pounds of.
Speaker 2: If you're trying to grow a grow trophy, get that
Speaker 2: bass in a spot.
Speaker 4: Whether it's yeah, I pull, I pull all the slot
Speaker 4: bass out, and I pull as many crappy as I
Speaker 4: can catch out of there too, and then I stuck
Speaker 4: them with about three to five hundred readier brim parakreake it.
Speaker 1: Some redneck stuff for you.
Speaker 2: Where did did that? Who instilled your love of fishing
Speaker 2: in my dad? Okay, yeah, so probably the same thing.
Speaker 2: I mean, as long as as far back as you
Speaker 2: can remember, you were you were catching brim and.
Speaker 4: It was as far back as I can remember. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and and and my dad was a tough guy, tough,
Speaker 4: tough guy, hard guy, mean as hell. And the boat
Speaker 4: was the only time when when I was a kid,
Speaker 4: that we were equals.
Speaker 2: Bro.
Speaker 1: I identify with that a thousand percent.
Speaker 4: If I could set in a boat for eight hours
Speaker 4: with him, I mean I'm talking like dad.
Speaker 1: Dad wasn't talking much.
Speaker 5: I was. I was probably running my head.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, but Dad had a Marlboro red hanging
Speaker 4: out of his lip and a Copenhagen or I'm sorry,
Speaker 4: a skull wintergreen long cut at the same time, double
Speaker 4: double tough, you know, with a with a Coors Lot
Speaker 4: beer going, and and just that cigarette.
Speaker 2: Day he was away from Mama. Dude, he was getting
Speaker 2: it in while he could you and.
Speaker 4: That cigarette dangling out of his mouth, and he would
Speaker 4: slow roll of Texas rigs lower than anybody I've ever
Speaker 4: seen in my life. Like he'd just throw it out
Speaker 4: there and just leave it.
Speaker 5: Bro.
Speaker 4: My dad would too, and he'd just sit there and
Speaker 4: I'd be back there in my spinner back, you know,
Speaker 4: and he just like he'd single.
Speaker 1: Signing and going too fast and then he just going weird. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Man, Yeah, the trif sound effects, you know, like immediately
Speaker 2: sitting here with you, I can tell immediately that the
Speaker 2: guy knows fishing, like you can tell, bro, he built
Speaker 2: his own live Well, but what's your face?
Speaker 1: I built a couple of them. We can talk about it.
Speaker 1: I got you, all right, what's your first indicator when
Speaker 1: you either you take somebody fishing or you're talking about fishing,
Speaker 1: that they know nothing about fishing? Because I know mine
Speaker 1: ours is probably the same. For example, it's gonna cost
Speaker 1: some people out here, a buddy of ours. It's gonna
Speaker 1: cost some people out this guy's don't know who it is,
Speaker 1: all right. He flips the he's using the spinning rock,
Speaker 1: set up the want to set up.
Speaker 2: Too obvious, flips the bell, throws the throws it out,
Speaker 2: flips it over, and that's a very obvious indicator of
Speaker 2: somebody didn't.
Speaker 1: That's a telltale. Or if that's a funny one.
Speaker 4: Or if they flip the bell and don't just start
Speaker 4: reeling it, they they lock it back and then start reeling.
Speaker 5: It, that one's funny to one, or if.
Speaker 4: And I'll even get more more case specific with with
Speaker 4: like I grew up, you know, bass fishing, but in
Speaker 4: the South, we didn't say big mouth.
Speaker 5: That's a large mouth. He was bass fishing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's what.
Speaker 4: We're fishing for, big big bask and uh if if
Speaker 4: what's called modern day a bait caster?
Speaker 1: Ye, Dad called him an open face whenever I was
Speaker 1: a kid.
Speaker 4: Ab Garcia Garcia five thousand series that dad had had
Speaker 4: a red one and a green one and they were matching.
Speaker 5: They were like both like three thousand seas or five
Speaker 5: thousand seas or something like that.
Speaker 1: I'll try to get my dad a new one, like
Speaker 1: a lose or something. I don't want it. It wants
Speaker 1: the old Abbu Garcia Big, the old.
Speaker 4: The ambassador. And uh yeah, that that's that's what it was.
Speaker 4: That's what we did.
Speaker 5: And uh it was.
Speaker 4: That's that's how I told When I was a kid,
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, you can't cast that.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, you ain't no bass man.
Speaker 5: No, here's I think I think I can get my
Speaker 5: mom's uh spinning. I think we got a three O
Speaker 5: three over there, my baby sisters. Just how about I
Speaker 5: grab a.
Speaker 1: Snoop SNOOPI for you? You know, Daddy backlashed again.
Speaker 2: He ain't no hand like that.
Speaker 5: We were talking somebody was talking about fishing the other
Speaker 5: day and h we were talking about the same thing too.
Speaker 4: And a buddy of mine, his name is Casey. I say, Casey,
Speaker 4: we grew up skipping school going fishing. They give scholarships
Speaker 4: for this, by the way, today, fishing.
Speaker 1: In high school.
Speaker 4: We skipped high school to go fishing. But me and
Speaker 4: my buddy Casey go and like, how do you know
Speaker 4: when you're good? And I said, well, whenever there's nothing bitten.
Speaker 4: And your buddy makes a really good cast somewhere that
Speaker 4: he's gonna just he knows he's going to cross one's
Speaker 4: eyes and then you throw your lure right on top
Speaker 4: of his and then giggle.
Speaker 1: That's when you know you're pretty good.
Speaker 4: That's when you know you spend a lot of time
Speaker 4: in the boat not catching fish.
Speaker 2: Gosh, did we spend a lot of time not catching fishing.
Speaker 2: I think I'm more of a catcher than a fisher.
Speaker 2: Reads like the go figure it out, and I'm call
Speaker 2: me once you get to figure it out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like to I like to hunt for him.
Speaker 5: I like to go.
Speaker 1: I like to go, Yeah, go figure it out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's, it's it's it's hard to I don't
Speaker 2: get to go figure it out much more because on
Speaker 2: a twenty acre late you kind of know what they're doing.
Speaker 2: But it ain't a spot where you're gonna go out
Speaker 2: there and you're gonna catch a six or eight ten
Speaker 2: pounder every time, Like you gotta go. I mean, you
Speaker 2: gotta know what they're you gotta know what they're biting
Speaker 2: and throw it in the right spot.
Speaker 1: Stuff like that. But we grew up on Pickwick, which
Speaker 1: is south well more west of here.
Speaker 2: It's a big bass lake, and I mean part of
Speaker 2: the Tennessee River, Yes, a giant and and some days
Speaker 2: you go out there and you could get in them,
Speaker 2: and then other days you wouldn't catch fish.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: It's tough fishing, all right. I need to live well, dude,
Speaker 2: I do. I still use the little cage. I just
Speaker 2: throw it over the side of the boat and drag
Speaker 2: it by my trash.
Speaker 1: The cage, the cage, live weal is. I've got a sixteen.
Speaker 2: I've got a sixteen fifty six plenty plenty big enough,
Speaker 2: but I need a I need a I've been thinking
Speaker 2: about it, trying to figure it out.
Speaker 1: What tell me, tell me what I need.
Speaker 4: There's there's these little pumps and I forget what they're called.
Speaker 4: There like a red, white and blue little pump and
Speaker 4: it's not very big. They're about twenty five thirty five
Speaker 4: dollars on Amazon. I bought like the one hundred can
Speaker 4: size it. Because the trick about making a homemade live
Speaker 4: well is is you really don't want to do it
Speaker 4: with like a yetti because they're too heavy, right, And
Speaker 4: so you want to do it with like the Igloo.
Speaker 5: Brand, you know, solid chess, but not the mega heavy
Speaker 5: you know, the hundred can Igloo that is your old
Speaker 5: school just plastic, you know, but big enough to where
Speaker 5: like you want to go catch some cats, you know,
Speaker 5: then throw out, throw some drugs out. I jug fish
Speaker 5: off time. I love, I said, jug fish. I go.
Speaker 1: I said, this is how what I this is how
Speaker 1: bad I am. I sick at you.
Speaker 4: I know, I go set jugs out and then I
Speaker 4: go bass fish. Yeah, and then I go back and
Speaker 4: check my jugs.
Speaker 1: See one roll in. It's just ridiculous. Oh what was
Speaker 1: I even talking about talking about?
Speaker 3: What do you?
Speaker 5: What do you?
Speaker 1: What's your go to joug bait? You know, I hate
Speaker 1: stink bait. He's a cut bait guy.
Speaker 4: I tell I do I do use cut bait, and
Speaker 4: I use cut bait and hot dog winners with red
Speaker 4: kool aid and garlic salt.
Speaker 5: Hey, a bit of a concoction. Hey, I've heard the
Speaker 5: garlic salt. The worst that's gonna happen. It's gonna stain
Speaker 5: your fingers. Smell like garlic. You don't smell like.
Speaker 1: Thank you? Yeah, you don't smell like gobble?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that stink bait is the next level for dazed.
Speaker 1: That's the worst. And you like it's not it's not
Speaker 1: the all like it. It doesn't catch them better than anything.
Speaker 1: Here's what's awesome, cut bait catch it just as well.
Speaker 4: Let's let's go put some poo on our on our fingers, okay,
Speaker 4: and catch the fish and then clean those fish and
Speaker 4: then fry those fish up.
Speaker 1: And then when you're enjoying that, and then and then
Speaker 1: when you're enjoying.
Speaker 5: That fish, you can still smell it on your fingers.
Speaker 1: That's the best.
Speaker 2: That's the best argument for not using the state fingers.
Speaker 4: So cut bait doesn't bother me. Man, You can catch
Speaker 4: you some pan fish. Cut those suckers up, hot dog
Speaker 4: winters with red red fruit punch cool like gotta be
Speaker 4: red fruit punch cool.
Speaker 1: Not cherry not to be confused with chick please no
Speaker 1: chaerr fruit punch and cherry works.
Speaker 5: And then garlic saw you all right?
Speaker 2: Noted, we're all lady d go back to the live
Speaker 2: well cash, sorry about that that was going to do anyway,
Speaker 2: Our listeners know this is this is typical, all right.
Speaker 4: Hunter can igloo and then just one of those small
Speaker 4: errator pumps it's it's a red, white and blue one.
Speaker 4: It's about yeah big, I think I got one. Yeah,
Speaker 4: And and.
Speaker 1: How do you power it? Uh?
Speaker 4: It doesn't take a lot of power, but you need
Speaker 4: I use a lawn ober battery because I mean lugging
Speaker 4: in big old battery like a car battery for running
Speaker 4: amencote or something.
Speaker 1: You got to do that.
Speaker 4: But uh, but in terms of just running that aerator,
Speaker 4: that little errator run off just a pretty small tractor
Speaker 4: battery or a TV battery.
Speaker 1: So when do you bat You plug it in? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I plug it in. I run I filled obviously filled
Speaker 1: up with.
Speaker 4: Water, and then I just start running it when I
Speaker 4: start putting fish in and I'll feed ice into it.
Speaker 1: Um hmm.
Speaker 5: I'll have a separate cooler with just ice, and those
Speaker 5: fish will stand there all.
Speaker 4: Day, oh, just to keep the temperature. So yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: you'll stay. I mean as long as they got that
Speaker 4: you can build. I mean that that cooler is going
Speaker 4: to be your big biggest expense out of the lawn
Speaker 4: and garden battery.
Speaker 1: But still you're talking one hundred and twenty bucks probably
Speaker 1: hundred twenty bucks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you know you can take it anywhere. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean, dump the mobile, dump the water out let
Speaker 4: the water drain out, and you have a cooler full
Speaker 4: of fishing. Still pick up because it's not a yetty.
Speaker 1: Right, I'm about to do that. I'm about to do that.
Speaker 1: It makes good sense. Maybe tomorrow.
Speaker 4: And then here here's how my big one works too,
Speaker 4: because sometimes I transport lark. This is how nerdy I
Speaker 4: am about this stuff. I travel large amounts of fish.
Speaker 4: Or when I pick up my red air brim.
Speaker 1: From Pond King and Lindsay, Texas.
Speaker 5: I like those guys. Ye look, guys, they don't give
Speaker 5: me nothing, I promise you. They're very expensive.
Speaker 1: They got great stuff though.
Speaker 4: But I took one of those three hundred gallon like
Speaker 4: water thing water.
Speaker 1: Tubs that you put you know, fork lifts under it.
Speaker 4: To move them, and I rigged me up a big one.
Speaker 1: Man, I can I can put you go pick up
Speaker 1: your redded brim with basically a kiddie pool and then
Speaker 1: attach it to the back trailer and drive them home. Well,
Speaker 1: it's not so much a kiddie pool.
Speaker 5: It's like a.
Speaker 3: Tank.
Speaker 1: It's a tank.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And and I put it on my little trailer
Speaker 4: and uh pull it, you know, pull it on my
Speaker 4: truck and.
Speaker 1: You put ice in there to get them. How far
Speaker 1: is it to your house? About forty five minutes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they live forty five minutes in a stock tank on
Speaker 1: the trailer. I'm shocked by that. DoD they'll live all day.
Speaker 4: I'll just go before I pick them up, and I'll
Speaker 4: just I'll buy a few bags of ice and I'll
Speaker 4: just throw the ice in the I have the water rady.
Speaker 4: I have well water at home. Oh nice, So I
Speaker 4: pump it full of my well water and then they'll
Speaker 4: they'll put some of their water in it to adjust
Speaker 4: the temperature for them, and then they'll have that cool
Speaker 4: water in there and well and it makes sense. Yeah,
Speaker 4: no problem Manyeah, that's awesome. Yeah, yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 1: I love tank cultivation. How big are your tanks at
Speaker 1: home that you keep in your bath?
Speaker 5: Not big?
Speaker 4: My biggest is I've got a two acre tank, and
Speaker 4: then I've got three one acre tanks, and I work
Speaker 4: all of them.
Speaker 1: See, this is foreign to me. I don't know anything
Speaker 1: about the tank culture. Honestly. Yeah, it sounds inch. That
Speaker 1: sounds fun, though.
Speaker 5: The I'm a hermit and I don't go anywhere when
Speaker 5: I'm not on the road. And so.
Speaker 4: Essentially, my wife and I years ago bought a playground.
Speaker 4: I bought a ranch and and Miavy day driver is
Speaker 4: usually a side by side and then we like I
Speaker 4: was telling you that thirty acres lake, we got up
Speaker 4: the road and and I'm usually on a four wheeler,
Speaker 4: a TV or a dirt bike or a.
Speaker 1: Something outside john Boat.
Speaker 5: And then.
Speaker 1: I've got my dad's old tracker.
Speaker 4: If i want to get out on the big water,
Speaker 4: We've got several lakes or and we got great bass
Speaker 4: lakes up around. I grew up on on Ray Roberts.
Speaker 4: We called it ray Ball when I was a.
Speaker 1: Kid, a big fish lake. But yeah, there's we're around
Speaker 1: a lot of water.
Speaker 4: And I just I just as soon have a buddy
Speaker 4: over and go fishing as I do anything else.
Speaker 1: Your kids like it, They get out there with you,
Speaker 1: so yes, And though, yeah.
Speaker 4: That's funny because I bought the place that I dreamed
Speaker 4: about when I was a kid, and my kids are
Speaker 4: just different, you know, my my my ideal. I would
Speaker 4: have gone fishing with my dad every day if I
Speaker 4: could have, you know, but I got to pull their
Speaker 4: tea because they've grown up around it more and interesting.
Speaker 1: You always wonder that interesting. I always wonder about that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's kind of like, uh, you know, my
Speaker 4: wife telling me, you know, it's like you you got
Speaker 4: this for you. You know, they're growing up here and
Speaker 4: they love it. They loved living they loved living in
Speaker 4: the country.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it's not so much.
Speaker 4: We spend a lot of time together and obviously we
Speaker 4: got a lot of space out there, and baseball is
Speaker 4: a big deal.
Speaker 5: So there's a lot of baseball with my son in
Speaker 5: the front yard. I throw to him a lot and
Speaker 5: he just hits baseballs and whatever. I'll catch him as
Speaker 5: long as I can.
Speaker 4: But it's uh, it's not really uh we're gonna jump
Speaker 4: in the side by side and go fishing with dad
Speaker 4: much anymore.
Speaker 1: Although my daughter did mention.
Speaker 4: To my wife the other day, I hadn't asked her
Speaker 4: personally to go fishing walk because she was my fishing buddy,
Speaker 4: my oldest and she's she's almost driving now, she's in
Speaker 4: driver's head. And so my wife mentioned that and I
Speaker 4: was like, hey, baby, you know, you want to go fishing,
Speaker 4: and she was like, I can't.
Speaker 1: But it's the thought, it's the asking.
Speaker 5: They just and here's what I know about women. Now,
Speaker 5: which is not a lot.
Speaker 1: They just need to be asked, like, it doesn't matter
Speaker 1: if they can do it or not. You think that
Speaker 1: goes across the board, wives it all.
Speaker 4: That's a that's a that's a generalization that I personally
Speaker 4: have have made that may be unfair and unfounded in
Speaker 4: the eyes of some people. But I think that it's
Speaker 4: the thought and like the nature of like, it's the
Speaker 4: thought that matters that you thought to include them in
Speaker 4: my in my experience, Yes, because even like with my mom,
Speaker 4: I've noticed because my dad's been very helpful in saying, son,
Speaker 4: you're going to learn. Yeah, and I'm trying to pay
Speaker 4: attention like they've been doing it forty six years.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And he and I have a baby sister, and she
Speaker 4: changed my dad. Boy, I'm telling you, it's not the
Speaker 4: same dude that raised me, raised my baby sister.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you that damn much.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So you know, it's just different creatures man, And I
Speaker 4: know we have females in the room.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's ask one. How do you feel about that?
Speaker 1: Is it just the asking or what do you think
Speaker 1: jump asking?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I don't think that was I don't
Speaker 1: think that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, that's that's what I've learned, that's been
Speaker 4: my experience. Yeah, so I try to make sure because
Speaker 4: hey man, I'm trying to raise a daughter that looks
Speaker 4: for things in a in a mate that she's like,
Speaker 4: oh my dad did that, that's important?
Speaker 2: Completely agree, right, same way yeah, yeah, respect, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I love yeah, trust right right yeah, yep, yep, yeah,
Speaker 2: I get that.
Speaker 1: I'm the same way.
Speaker 2: Maybe my girls only did you just turn three? And
Speaker 2: it terrifies me, you know what I'm saying. It terrifies me.
Speaker 5: Oh just wait, they get like she's like, they're just
Speaker 5: so pretty, like you just.
Speaker 1: Look at your little girl.
Speaker 5: You're just like, oh my gosh, I will kill people for.
Speaker 1: You for yeah, and everything else and anything, I'll kill anything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I feel that. I definitely feel it though. Yes,
Speaker 1: or my son, that's the one that's they're the same
Speaker 1: age decided. We asked him what he wanted for dinner,
Speaker 1: and he said, I want to go to haibachi and
Speaker 1: he just calls it bachi because he knows they have
Speaker 1: rice and yeah, man, well you know the Mexican place
Speaker 1: has rise too, and is I don't know, eighty bucks cheaper.
Speaker 1: Maybe you're going to sling it all over the table anyway,
Speaker 1: maybe we just go Mexican and instead, you know, he's like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm Bachi, Bachi, he knows.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: So we're on the way down there and my five
Speaker 1: soon to be six year old little girl goes, I'm
Speaker 1: trying to talk them into Mexican right the whole time,
Speaker 1: which turns out my wife wanted to Bachi, so that's
Speaker 1: why we ended up going there. Uh, but it was
Speaker 1: I was trying to talk them into Mexican and and
Speaker 1: I said, and Eliza said, well they have. My little
Speaker 1: girl said, well, they have at a mammy at Mexican
Speaker 1: and I was like, they don't. He was like, Daddy,
Speaker 1: they do have at a mammy at Mexican. And I
Speaker 1: and this is where I'm too with like my five
Speaker 1: year old, assuming that she's right and I'm wrong on things.
Speaker 1: And I finally just go, hey, Liza, how how long
Speaker 1: have I been alive? She was like forty one years?
Speaker 1: I said, you have any Mexican places I've been to
Speaker 1: in those forty one years? A ton? And you know
Speaker 1: how many of them had ota mammy? Not there one
Speaker 1: of them? Baby. She was like, no, this one Mexican
Speaker 1: has out of Mammy and we would. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: just like, how do you convince these jokers? You don't not?
Speaker 1: At five? No chance? You tell me it doesn't change?
Speaker 1: Do they eventually go?
Speaker 4: You know what, well, even even the young girls find
Speaker 4: a way to make you know you're wrong.
Speaker 5: I don't know what they do.
Speaker 4: I don't know why or because like my daughter will
Speaker 4: you know, I'll be like, I don't even argue with
Speaker 4: her anymore because it's like I'm going to be wrong
Speaker 4: for some reason or whatever. And like and then and
Speaker 4: Rebecca will be like, we're not ganging up on you, Cody,
Speaker 4: you're wrong, and I'm like, okay, okay, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1: It's funny.
Speaker 4: It really is funny, man, because just they're the little
Speaker 4: the little ones are just like the big ones.
Speaker 1: They're just little. Okay, No, we can talk about this forever.
Speaker 5: It's funny.
Speaker 2: Hey man, you talked about your new record working on it.
Speaker 2: It comes out seven twenty five. Yeah, we got a
Speaker 2: little sneak peak of it. It's great, man, it's great.
Speaker 2: And I know you've talked about this. I know you've
Speaker 2: talked about your sobriety. But the first track on that
Speaker 2: listing is better than the bottle now that you are sober,
Speaker 2: now that you are on the other side of that, Like,
Speaker 2: what are some of those things that in your life
Speaker 2: that are better than the bottle for you know.
Speaker 4: That was one of the last songs we wrote, and
Speaker 4: it became the first song to go on the record.
Speaker 1: Everybody kind of fell in love with it instantly.
Speaker 4: I wrote it with an old buddy named Tom McIlvaine
Speaker 4: that I've written a lot with over the years. And
Speaker 4: everyone of that song's true. He just stopped buying and
Speaker 4: and we had both quit drinking essentially, and and and
Speaker 4: and you know, in terms of sobriety, you know, it's
Speaker 4: like I do not drink.
Speaker 1: I haven't drank in a long time.
Speaker 5: I am California sober. So that there's there's some people
Speaker 5: that like, dude, you know, you know, I just mad,
Speaker 5: you know, make sure everybody you know. And and and
Speaker 5: Tom is uh is kind of the same way.
Speaker 4: And we never got in any trouble together after we
Speaker 4: had smoked a jay. We got into a lot of
Speaker 4: troubles when.
Speaker 1: We were drinking.
Speaker 4: And Uh, And he's one of those guys that that
Speaker 4: whenever we met each other twenty years ago, and started
Speaker 4: singing together and playing together around Texas and writing songs together.
Speaker 4: We were the good time wherever we were at man
Speaker 4: and growing and learning and you know, going through uh,
Speaker 4: just life and growing up and turning that into a
Speaker 4: really cool reflective song. There's a mention of a guy
Speaker 4: named Jay Johnson. He was a local singer songwriter from
Speaker 4: you know, our neck of the woods back home, and.
Speaker 1: Uh, you know he lost his battle with.
Speaker 4: With you know, things of that nature, and and uh
Speaker 4: that happened years ago, and not a lot of people
Speaker 4: know who Jay is. People back home do you know,
Speaker 4: But it's you remember those guys and and just look
Speaker 4: at each other and just like, man, thank god we
Speaker 4: made it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So where does the conviction Because listen to the record
Speaker 2: and listen to all your stuff. I'm previous to that,
Speaker 2: and there's just a realness to all of it. You know,
Speaker 2: it's you're telling these stories and literally things that happened
Speaker 2: with your buddies and stuff like that. Like where does
Speaker 2: where does that conviction come from to just just write
Speaker 2: about your life and and and tell the truth to
Speaker 2: to to your fans.
Speaker 4: I didn't realize until maybe like two records ago that
Speaker 4: I was just kind of making a whole lot of
Speaker 4: different paintings of my life. I've used my I've used
Speaker 4: my life and my journey and my story as the canvas.
Speaker 5: There's not I mean, you can look at you can
Speaker 5: look at my body of work, which is I.
Speaker 4: Don't know how many records it is now or how
Speaker 4: many recording it's over one hundred recorded songs, and and
Speaker 4: tell where I'm at in life, you know, not in
Speaker 4: every song, because some of them are third person, most
Speaker 4: of them are first person, the third persons, most of
Speaker 4: them are first But it's it's been, it's been a
Speaker 4: very very much a journey. And I mentioned that in
Speaker 4: the liner notes on the Change the Game record last
Speaker 4: year when.
Speaker 5: We dropped it.
Speaker 4: A lot of these people, you know, I meet people
Speaker 4: now that walk up drinking a beer like, hey, I've
Speaker 4: grown up on your music, Like yeah, I've been doing
Speaker 4: this a long time.
Speaker 1: And you know, uh, we raised we raised our kids
Speaker 1: on this.
Speaker 4: And me and my daughter, Me and my daughter, you know,
Speaker 4: danced to this at our our We danced a Mama's
Speaker 4: song at the at the at the wedding, or we
Speaker 4: played this or that at dad's funeral. And and so
Speaker 4: I make mention of of growing up together. And you know,
Speaker 4: I'll be forty five this year, so uh, there's there's
Speaker 4: there's a faction of people out there that have been
Speaker 4: seeing me play for the past twenty years that we're
Speaker 4: very much in the same places in life.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 1: They started coming to, you know, see us play.
Speaker 4: Whenever we were young and better looking and had long
Speaker 4: hair and no.
Speaker 1: Beards, right, and they just switched.
Speaker 4: And our children were nonexistent or very small, and now
Speaker 4: we're show you know, we're older, and it's a it's
Speaker 4: a fun it's it's the record's fun for me because
Speaker 4: it's I'm not young anymore and I'm not old. So
Speaker 4: I just think that there's there's there's a lot of
Speaker 4: just I'm on camera, right, and this is there's a
Speaker 4: lot of just to me on the record.
Speaker 5: There's a lot of this.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, yeah, I know
Speaker 1: exactly what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: It thanks to your authenticity though, man, that you've been
Speaker 2: you haven't been doing it for so long, but you're
Speaker 2: still like I mean, I was driving into town today
Speaker 2: and saw your a billboard playing First Bank Amphitheater doing Franklin. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's like you've still been doing it for so long.
Speaker 2: But your fan base is loyal, man, and you're you're
Speaker 2: gaining fans continually still and honestly even without the support
Speaker 2: of country radio or or Nashville in that sense. I
Speaker 2: don't know how you feel about that, but it just
Speaker 2: feels like, man, like, what you're doing is authentic and
Speaker 2: your your fans and your listeners and people around the
Speaker 2: world that are listening to your music are buying into
Speaker 2: it just by listening to it.
Speaker 4: We were fortunate just we built a really solid foundation
Speaker 4: and we were one of those We were on the
Speaker 4: road for ten years before anybody even knew who we were,
Speaker 4: and we were out there just running coast to coast, up,
Speaker 4: up and down, left and right, just stayed on the
Speaker 4: road nine or ten months out of the year for
Speaker 4: that was on the road nine or ten months out.
Speaker 5: Of the year for thirteen years in a row.
Speaker 4: And that's what we built. We built the foundation. We
Speaker 4: will always have a place to play. We will always
Speaker 4: have people that will come to see us play.
Speaker 5: Whether or not we're on the radio or not.
Speaker 4: And that's a great feeling. It was a very hard
Speaker 4: way to do it. I'm not saying it was the
Speaker 4: right way. It was the wrong way, it was our way,
Speaker 4: but we knew we knew back then that without the
Speaker 4: help of major market radio, that's how we were going
Speaker 4: to be.
Speaker 5: Able to do it.
Speaker 1: And continue to do it, and continue to do it
Speaker 1: and build a really loyal fan base.
Speaker 5: And it's it's.
Speaker 4: It's proven, it's proven to be, it works, it's worked,
Speaker 4: it's it's been we've been very four.
Speaker 1: I mean, ultimately, I feel like.
Speaker 2: That's kind of the only way to have true longevity
Speaker 2: is to make an authentic product that real humans buy
Speaker 2: into at whatever age they are.
Speaker 1: And as long as you keep and continue doing that,
Speaker 1: that audience grows with you, thus still coming to shows,
Speaker 1: still streaming your music, still supporting you and what you do.
Speaker 1: I say that all the time, Like it's tough too,
Speaker 1: because we're commercial songwriters, right, so we're aiming at radio
Speaker 1: and different artists and all these different things, and so
Speaker 1: it's tough though when when an artist has a bit
Speaker 1: and they're built on that bit, you know, whether that's
Speaker 1: like hot flashy abs or whether that's look how country
Speaker 1: I am or whatever the thing is. And I feel
Speaker 1: like when you build it on that, there's only so
Speaker 1: much consumption until you're you're as a listener, you're just like, Okay,
Speaker 1: what else, what else? What else? Where as opposed to
Speaker 1: this is where I am in my life and I'm not.
Speaker 1: And look, it's an entertainment business. So I'm not saying
Speaker 1: everything has to be one hundred percent authentic to you
Speaker 1: to the core of what you're going through in your life.
Speaker 1: But if you can, if you can figure out how
Speaker 1: to like encapsulate that, then you kind of you got
Speaker 1: your You got your foundation of those people that are
Speaker 1: your age, that understand it, you know, and grow with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: especially through these records.
Speaker 2: Man, I mean, these people can tell you that they
Speaker 2: they grew up on you and they listen to another
Speaker 2: kids are going up on you. I mean like and
Speaker 2: that that's the coolest thing to me, is like you
Speaker 2: don't have to be anything but you. All you got
Speaker 2: to do is just put out just just right from
Speaker 2: your heart, right from your experience, your life right now.
Speaker 2: And you can put out records as long as you live,
Speaker 2: and these people will listen and come to your shows
Speaker 2: and and be Cody Jinks fans.
Speaker 4: I think that's where we hold an advantage is because
Speaker 4: without having a record label big record label proper. You know,
Speaker 4: oftentimes artists can't just put out their work because hey,
Speaker 4: we have to wait for the next record cycle. We
Speaker 4: have to wait on this song, that song, We have
Speaker 4: this held, that held this, and that. Iking it to
Speaker 4: what what I'm able to do in the freedom that
Speaker 4: I have, is iking it to an artist that, like,
Speaker 4: I don't know, just say any any painter that has
Speaker 4: a whole lot of really cool paintings. Some of them
Speaker 4: are really popular, some of them aren't as popular. Well,
Speaker 4: should he have not released those? Absolutely not. That's where
Speaker 4: he or she was at that particular time. So I
Speaker 4: have I have albums that maybe aren't as One of
Speaker 4: my favorite records is probably my least popular record in sales,
Speaker 4: just because I thought that the songwriting for my I'm
Speaker 4: talking about my thirty record and because to me, I
Speaker 4: thought that that was such a great exercise in my
Speaker 4: own personal songwriting that it maybe got a little too
Speaker 4: heady for a lot of people. Sure, so yeah, you
Speaker 4: know it's it's but I needed to put that record out.
Speaker 4: So I think that that artists oftentimes aren't able to
Speaker 4: just exercise and get that work out, cleanse the palette.
Speaker 1: You needed to put that out, because if you just.
Speaker 4: Sit on that song in five years you're not and
Speaker 4: you look back, you might think I should have cut
Speaker 4: that song then because I had conviction.
Speaker 1: I was there then.
Speaker 5: I was there then.
Speaker 1: And don't don't wait. If you if you can, right man,
Speaker 1: that's a that's that's a that's a good word right there.
Speaker 1: That's a testament to to just putting out what you
Speaker 1: feel at the time you feel it. What's your are
Speaker 1: Listeners love to hear the process of different artists and
Speaker 1: their writing styles and when they write, when they don't write,
Speaker 1: if they come to town to write, if they write
Speaker 1: by themselves. What's your? Are you always writing?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 1: Are you always? Are you? Are you always? Are you
Speaker 1: always owned? Or do you set a time?
Speaker 2: Okay, next Thursday, I'm gonna I'm gonna lock myself in
Speaker 2: a room and come up with a couple ideas.
Speaker 1: I try to be stay.
Speaker 4: Really undisciplined in all of that. I don't let it
Speaker 4: come to you. I try to, but I always try
Speaker 4: to have something stewing. I always try to have There's
Speaker 4: a couple of guys that we always try to have
Speaker 4: at least an idea. We're bouncing back and forth via text.
Speaker 4: There's always something cooking, even if I'm even if I
Speaker 4: go I go through periods where I don't write for
Speaker 4: maybe months, especially if I'm wrapped up in the business
Speaker 4: end of things. Every day's a phone call or five.
Speaker 2: Or or Heart of Greek, creative and to road going, touring, road,
Speaker 2: the administration side of it.
Speaker 4: I'm really hands on with every aspect of everything, and
Speaker 4: in most most areas, yeah I have I have help,
Speaker 4: I have a great team, but yeah, it's it's a lot.
Speaker 4: So changing the hats is something I've gotten better at,
Speaker 4: but it's still it's still difficult, and I've found that
Speaker 4: I have a more difficult time writing at home.
Speaker 1: I still write at home a great deal, but there's
Speaker 1: so much going on.
Speaker 4: Two teenagers and both of them are in fifteen different
Speaker 4: activities and it's great and it's like everybody else's house
Speaker 4: with busy kids, and it's wonderful that I'm at home
Speaker 4: doing stuff. So if i'm if I'm not doing stuff
Speaker 4: with the kids, I'm on one of the tanks, fishing
Speaker 4: or messing with you know, or on a tractor or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: That's a long winded answer.
Speaker 1: No, I identify with that because even riding in town
Speaker 1: like the other day, I noticed I was looking at
Speaker 1: my phone a whole bunch. But it's it's partly because
Speaker 1: of the phone. Because now my dog is tied to
Speaker 1: the phone, my wife's tied to the phone, my kids
Speaker 1: are tied to the phone, my house is tied. Your
Speaker 1: dog's tied to the hole. I mean, I got that
Speaker 1: halo collar, man. So like when she gets out of
Speaker 1: the out of the your dog like scrolling Instagram. No,
Speaker 1: it's when she gets out of the fence and immediately
Speaker 1: buzzes me, which pulls me out of whatever I'm in
Speaker 1: and goes, oh, my gosh, Iris is halfway down the driveway.
Speaker 1: We've got to get something, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Do they have I don't know what what I'm assuming.
Speaker 4: I understand what talking about. The halo thing with the
Speaker 4: dog is this. Do they have stuff now where the
Speaker 4: dog can contact you?
Speaker 1: It contacts you for it. It's like GPS. It's like
Speaker 1: like please, it's.
Speaker 4: The dog, Like Bark's twice water, there's a code Morris
Speaker 4: code bark.
Speaker 1: Right, that's great. I basically set a fence up and
Speaker 1: if and it's on, I can look on my phone
Speaker 1: it's GPS to like find my friends or anything else.
Speaker 1: And if she gets outside that fence, yeah, it sends
Speaker 1: her a little shock and lets me know that it
Speaker 1: that it did it. It's pretty wild, man.
Speaker 4: Okay, well pretty well, I'm I'm, I got you, I
Speaker 4: got Yeah, it's wild.
Speaker 1: It's where we're at, man.
Speaker 2: But but my whole point of that is, like, it's this,
Speaker 2: it's it's speaking to you having trouble writing at home.
Speaker 1: It's the same thing. It's like the more connected you
Speaker 1: are to the things going on, and honestly, it's things
Speaker 1: that you care about, you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: I care about my dog, care about my kids, care
Speaker 1: about my wife.
Speaker 4: But that to stay in that lane, well, that's where
Speaker 4: your attentions as right. If you're if you're at home
Speaker 4: doing what you're supposed to do. If I was sitting
Speaker 4: at home writing every day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you'd be absent from everything.
Speaker 5: I'll be absent.
Speaker 4: And that's been the whole point the last few years
Speaker 4: is to make the time at home count.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 5: And so.
Speaker 4: I'm in home as much as I can be, and
Speaker 4: my wife and children understand that I don't leave unless
Speaker 4: I don't leave until I have to and I'm home
Speaker 4: as soon as I can.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's where we're at. Yeah, we don't go gallipant
Speaker 1: no more. Dude. I did it. I did it.
Speaker 5: I drank it all.
Speaker 4: I went to every bar after every I've been in
Speaker 4: every bar after every show I played in the whole country,
Speaker 4: like five times. Whatever after party and whatever town I'm
Speaker 4: in at, whatever bar that we shut down that night.
Speaker 1: And that's where you were Dubuque, Iowa, or.
Speaker 4: Springfield, Missouri, or Spokane, Wash I don't know, dude, wherever
Speaker 4: we were at, we shut them down.
Speaker 1: I did it. And uh, can I ask you what
Speaker 1: the conviction was to change?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 1: What? What was it? Your family? Was your kids? Was
Speaker 1: was it? Your life? Health?
Speaker 5: All of it?
Speaker 1: Man, just everything.
Speaker 4: It just needed to I just needed to change for
Speaker 4: every reason, mostly mostly family, mostly personal.
Speaker 5: Health, mental health, probably more than anything.
Speaker 4: But I I just had to change a bunch of things.
Speaker 5: And I think.
Speaker 4: That that's been beneficial to my marriage and my family
Speaker 4: and and learning how to deal with a bunch of
Speaker 4: things and going to therapy and.
Speaker 1: As opposed to just kind of drinking through them, as.
Speaker 4: Opposed to drinking through I drank through them. I did
Speaker 4: that for a very long time, and then I quit
Speaker 4: doing that and then started the working on mental health
Speaker 4: and physical health all at the same time, and being
Speaker 4: present at home and having my family actually get used
Speaker 4: to me being home and then have to get used
Speaker 4: to sober me being home, and then it's it's just
Speaker 4: everything's uh. I've like I've realized, like I can't ever
Speaker 4: get comfortable no matter what.
Speaker 1: I'm comfortable in home around my people, but everything's a.
Speaker 4: Practice, like I have to work every day to like
Speaker 4: not be a piece of it same you know, gosh right, well,
Speaker 4: and like that's what you know I admire about.
Speaker 1: I have a I have a close group of.
Speaker 4: Friends that are my age that you know, we're going
Speaker 4: through the same things in life, and very fortunate to
Speaker 4: have these guys. And it's it's good to see other
Speaker 4: guys dealing with waking up every day and also trying
Speaker 4: not to be a piece of shit. And I'm just
Speaker 4: not even talking about being a great person, which we're
Speaker 4: all working to be better people.
Speaker 5: It's just, man, I'm just trying not to mess up.
Speaker 4: I tell people all the time, I'm just like, dude,
Speaker 4: I'm just I'm just hanging on many I'm just I'm
Speaker 4: just trying to love neighbor.

Speaker 5: Was talking with this person one time about Mother's Day.
Speaker 5: And we have missed Mother's Day. We've been on the
Speaker 5: road for Mother's Day. A lot of people have done that.
Speaker 1: It's a real, real world, yep.
Speaker 5: And that's that's not good.
Speaker 4: And you always try to celebrate Mother's Day and make
Speaker 4: a thing out of it, and certainly, you know, help
Speaker 4: the kids get cards and presents and celebrate that and
Speaker 4: things of that nature. And I was talking with this
Speaker 4: this this female, this woman my age one time, and
Speaker 4: we were talking about Mother's Day versus Father's Day, and
Speaker 4: and it got to us said, here's the thing. The
Speaker 4: difference between Mother's Day and father Mother's Day should be celebrated.
Speaker 4: It should be highly touted, it should.
Speaker 1: Be a big deal. It always should be, it always
Speaker 1: will be.
Speaker 5: Father's Day.
Speaker 4: Probably leave them alone, okay, probably like, hey, what do
Speaker 4: you want to do today? Not heye, what do you
Speaker 4: want to do today? I was thinking, good tip, What
Speaker 4: do you want to do today?
Speaker 1: It's a good tip.
Speaker 4: Do you want to go fishing? Do you want to
Speaker 4: like you want to take the kids? You want by yourself?
Speaker 4: I watched the kids because chances are Dad would rather
Speaker 4: probably just chill, smoke a cigarette, throw a dip in
Speaker 4: and drink a beer.
Speaker 1: On why he's crawbie fishing sounds like a hell of
Speaker 1: a day.
Speaker 5: You know, it's very simple, you know, like it's a difference.
Speaker 5: And so we get into this conversation and I go, well, wait,
Speaker 5: if Mother's day's for the mom, who's the Father's Day for?
Speaker 1: She's like for the family. I was like, that's fed up.
Speaker 1: So Family Day, Family's Day. Father's Day is Family's Day.

Speaker 4: because we did Mother's Day the other day.
Speaker 5: It was the whole family's there.
