1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 1: Boones everybody, we're gonna do a Q and A. And

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: so I did one of these on my Instagram and

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: I said, hey, just ask your questions. The problem is

4
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: I get a lot of great questions, but then it

5
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,399
Speaker 1: just takes forever to type and I'm not going to

6
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: do a bunch of videos, so I thought we would

7
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: answer them here. So I've grabbed a few of these,

8
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: all right. Number one, how do you deal with the

9
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: scrutiny that comes with your jobs. I think that I've

10
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: been able to grow in my job with the scrutiny

11
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: that comes with my job. Meaning whenever I was starting

12
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: out in Hot Springs, Arkansas, there was just a slight

13
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: better scrutiny, like cople maybe a couple calls on the

14
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: little quest line and so you start to call us

15
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: up just a little. And then I go a little

16
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: Rock and it's a little more, but not much. Then

17
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: I go to Austin and then I'm doing mornings, and

18
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 1: then that starts to get pretty rough. Austin was weird

19
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 1: and rough though, because there was another morning show that

20
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: were just awful, awful, awful people and like they started

21
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: to like rattle the cage. And so I've been fortunate

22
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: enough to grow with it and now it's all the time.

23
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: But I think had I just been dunked into this,

24
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: And I feel bad for some people who go on

25
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: like a television show and they've never done anything in media.

26
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: They haven't been known at all. They go on television

27
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: show or podcast and all of a sudden, they're famous,

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: and they're getting crushed like they didn't have the luxury

29
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: of growing with that. I oddly remember an episode of

30
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: Home Improvement where Wilson was talking about kids and having kids,

31
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: and Wilson was the guy behind the fence. You never

32
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: saw his face until like the final episode, and even

33
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: when they would come out, because sometimes they would show

34
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: where the whole cast would come out and they'd be

35
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: like and tim aland waved to the crowd and they

36
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: would say Wilson, and Wilson would come out but would

37
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: still hold that fence in front of his face. So

38
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: for those that don't know, we didn't have the internet

39
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: back in the nineties, not to see Wilson's face Rest

40
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: in peace, by the way, but he came out in

41
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: the final episode and showed his face, and it's kind

42
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: of weird, I'll be honest with you. But he said

43
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: it in an episode once and he was talking about

44
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: having children and how hard it's going to be when

45
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 1: they get older, and he said, you know, you get

46
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: to grow as a parent as the kid grows as

47
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: a kid. So you're learning little things while the kid

48
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: is learning little things, and you're learning hard little things,

49
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: while the kid is learning hard little things, and you're

50
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: learning mid hard things while the kids learning mid you

51
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: have the ability to grow with that child being a parent,

52
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: And I just kind of feel like that's a bit

53
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: of what my job is. I have the luxury to

54
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: have started at a very small place and have grown

55
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: through the years to a level now which is wild.

56
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: So ninety six percent of the time, it's just another day.

57
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: Every once in a while, I am human. I think

58
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: I was talking to someone on a podcast about this recently.

59
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: If I'm having a weird day, a bad day, or

60
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: I didn't get enough sleep type of day, I don't

61
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,399
Speaker 1: look at anything because I know, regardless of what said,

62
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: if it's bad, my conditions are already not good and

63
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: it's going to make me even more not good. But

64
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: for the most part, I feel like I'm pretty good

65
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: with it because I've grown with it. I also have

66
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: an understanding of people that are the scrutinizers on the

67
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: Internet in that there's a reason that they do that

68
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 1: on the Internet, probably because they don't really have much else,

69
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: much else of a voice, right. I think the easiest

70
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: voice to be heard is the voice that's loud and angry,

71
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: and I think that's what the Internet is. I have

72
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: a role too. I don't go to comments unless it's Tuesday. Tuesday,

73
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: I dive in. I'll dive into Twitter comments occasionally. I'll

74
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: look at Instagram comments a little more than on just

75
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: Tuesday if there's a reason for me to do it,

76
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: or if I'm going to reply to some stuff to

77
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,119
Speaker 1: help engagement. But Twitter doesn't matter. Twitter's accessible. I still

78
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: love it for like new but Twitter's assess pool. But

79
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: I don't go to Facebook at all, and never look

80
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: at Facebook, don't look at any message boards, don't look

81
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: at Reddit. I haven't been to those places in literal

82
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: years because there's no benefit for me to go to

83
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: those places. Also, the anger that's online not just to me.

84
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: But I look at someone like Logan Paul who he's

85
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: killing it. He's one of the best ww wrestlers. He's

86
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: one of the biggest creators period, millions of dollars. Like,

87
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: he's so popular except if unless you look, if you

88
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 1: look online, everybody hates him. But that's the thing. Logan

89
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: Paul is so popular, But because people only use their

90
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: voice for the most part for ugly things, you would

91
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: just think Logan Paul is so hated. So I'm able

92
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: to see that pendulum. I actually need it. It's not

93
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: good for my mental health, and I don't expose myself

94
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: to it. But if people stop talking about me in

95
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,799
Speaker 1: a negative way, if I come at a crime or something,

96
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: I deserve negative But if people stop talking about me

97
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: in a negative way, opinions on things that I'm doing,

98
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: why I'm not good at something, people don't care. On

99
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: the other side either. And for as much as people

100
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: you can say love or enjoy the show or enjoy

101
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: me or what they do like, it swings both ways.

102
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: So as much as I'm loved is as much as

103
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: I'm hated. And that has been the constant since the

104
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: very beginning of all of this. And if it went away,

105
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: if I saw there was nothing being said bad about me, Ever,

106
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: I also have to understand there's nothing good being said

107
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: about me because I'm not making a difference at all,

108
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: Like I'm not resonating at all. So if you do

109
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: want to do things and be loved, you have to

110
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: understand that people are going to hate you for the

111
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: same reason that people are loving you. And also I've

112
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: been lucky enough to be calloused by it. I think

113
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: that's my answer to that, and then only go on Tuesday.

114
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: That's my answer to that too. What would you say

115
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: to someone moving to Nashville or getting into any creative

116
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: field for the first time. This is a good one.

117
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: I get this a lot, mostly from new artists that

118
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: are already here, some that are thinking of moving here

119
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: or moving here. So the first thing that you'll do

120
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: when you go anywhere new and it doesn't have to

121
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: be anything creative. It could be even I was a

122
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: new kid in school a lot. Being a new kid

123
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: in school sucks because you never start right When school

124
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: starts in the morning. They always open the door at

125
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: like eleven ten in the middle of the third period,

126
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: and they go, this is your new student, And everybody

127
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 1: looks up and they look at the new student. And

128
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: then you go and sit an empty desk and everybody's

129
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: kind of looking at you as they're still trying to

130
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: pay attention to the teacher. It sucks being a new student,

131
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: but the first thing that you do as a new

132
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: student is you find your crew. And usually the crew

133
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: that you meet on your first day of school, second

134
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 1: day of school, that's not really your crew. That's just

135
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: people that are nice, or people that don't have friends

136
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: that oh well, or people that doesn't end up being

137
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 1: your crew. But the sooner you find and go through them,

138
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: you find your real people. Like I would say the

139
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 1: first thing you do when you get here or get

140
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: anywhere or new job is like find your people. And

141
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: then in the creative world, I would encourage people to

142
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: understand and accept that there is something that is a

143
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: healthy jealousy, not an unhealthy jealousy. There is a lot

144
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: of unhealthy jealousy that manifests itself in ways that are

145
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,119
Speaker 1: really ugly, especially in this town, especially within artists here.

146
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: But I think a healthy jealousy and I would give

147
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: you a comparison. I have a very healthy jealousy to

148
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: one of my really good friends, I would even say

149
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: best like media friends. Who is Charlemagne the god in

150
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: New York, Like I message him all the time going

151
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: I cannot believe you're getting to do this. I'm so jealous,

152
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: and I'm literally jealous, but not in a way that's negative.

153
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: If anything, I am jealous, but I'm more inspired by

154
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: watching him do it. So I would say, find your

155
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: crew and understand that the crew is gonna have different

156
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: levels of successes at all different times, Like you're gonna

157
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: pop while they're not. They're gonna pop while you're not, Like,

158
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: maintain that, and then also understand that it's so to

159
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: be jealous if it's a healthy jealousy, and that you're

160
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: open about it, because I have it, especially with Charlott Magne,

161
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: and he probably would say that he has it similarly

162
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: with me at times too, So that would be what

163
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: I would say. And then also just do it. The

164
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: hardest part of anything just doing it, even going to

165
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: work out, Like I hate working out. The hardest part

166
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: of my going to work out. It's not running or lifting,

167
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: it's just freaking putting my shoes on and going and starting.

168
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: So go, just go, go, start, just go and figure

169
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: it out, because no one's going to have all the

170
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: answers until they get there, and then they're still not

171
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: going to have all the answers, but at least now

172
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: you're in the middle of it and you're creating something

173
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,599
Speaker 1: number three, would you say you are more successful or

174
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: less successful than five years ago? It's mixed. Here's a

175
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: situation that I think I deal with a lot I

176
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: never get, especially in the TV space. I can do that. First.

177
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 1: I don't ever get the big shows that I get

178
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 1: mentioned for, but I don't want and pass on any

179
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: of the small shows. So it's like this purgatory. Like

180
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: I remember whenever Noamy was coming out, this is four

181
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: or five years ago, and they were like, man, you'd

182
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: be perfect to host Noamy. That may not be what

183
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: it's called. It was called let's make a Deal, and

184
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: there's a version of it now Noamy and pressure Luck,

185
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: thank you, and man. I thought I had that job,

186
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: and then they gave it to Elizabeth Banks and I

187
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: was like, ah, dang, she's actually famous, so she kind

188
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: of deserves that job. There have been a couple of

189
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: those big shows that I don't get, and then if

190
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,719
Speaker 1: it's a little show, I don't really take it. I

191
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: don't really do any like one offs anymore for TV,

192
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: meaning I don't really fly to California because I would

193
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: go and do like a red carpet here. I don't

194
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: really do those anymore, so I would say in that space,

195
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: probably I'm not doing as much, so probably less. But

196
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: I think that's because I've dedicated so much to building

197
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 1: a lot of this, A lot of what we have now.

198
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: Bobbycast is now on Netflix, which is great. We've built studios,

199
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: I've got a bunch of shows on my podcast network,

200
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: the radio show like Financially, I have never been better,

201
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: So I think that's probably part of the reason. I

202
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: also think that I'm less if the word's famous, I'm

203
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: less famous than I used to be. But I think

204
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: everybody's kind of less famous than they used to be

205
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: because famous not it doesn't exist at the level that

206
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: it used to. Like you could have a TikTok channel

207
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: on broccoli and be the leader and be the number

208
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 1: one broccoli influencer, and someone would see you walking down

209
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: the street and be like, holy crap, that's Frankie the

210
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: broccoli guy, and you are famous to them. So less

211
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: famous although I don't ever feel like I got fully famous.

212
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: I've flirted with fame for about three years. I had

213
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: a good run of about three years where most places

214
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: I went people kind of that doesn't happen as much

215
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: in Nashville. It really happens medium to very little other

216
00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: places more so. But I think I'm probably I don't

217
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 1: really have a good answer there. It's just different now.

218
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: But I'm still getting to make stuff that's pretty cool,

219
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: and I'm owning a lot more stuff of my own,

220
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: which is pretty cool. So I think there's a lot

221
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: of freedom in that. There's another question, would you go

222
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: on Dancing with the Stars if they did a winners episode?

223
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: Is that what they're called, because I know they've done

224
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: those episodes where they bring back past champions. Maybe it's

225
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: an all Stars. Maybe it was called like Dancing with

226
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: the Stars all Stars and they brought back people, and

227
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: maybe it wasn't even just winners, but people who were

228
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: really good. No, No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't because there's

229
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: really nothing for me to gain. I will always be

230
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: the guy that won and people can't believe he won.

231
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: And I've said this before. What's weird about that whole

232
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: situation is and it feels like yesterday and twenty years

233
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: ago at the same time. What's weird about that is

234
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 1: I wasn't even the bad dancer on on my season,

235
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: like I wasn't good, but I wasn't like the bad

236
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: dance because every season there's like a bad dancer that

237
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: lasts a long time and they're like kick them off.

238
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: Can't believe it. I wasn't that on my season, which

239
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: is what was crazy. I'm the bad winner, but I

240
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: really wasn't the bad dancer, And in no way am

241
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: I saying I'm a good dancer. But it was just

242
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: weird to go from. I really wasn't getting a whole

243
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: lot of hate during my season because I wasn't the

244
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 1: worst one that kept existing. It just happened really after

245
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: I won the show because I was the bad winner.

246
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: But I don't think I would do a winner's episode

247
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: because I think I'd be the first to go. They'd

248
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: sacrifice me somehow. I'd be out of there. I'd be

249
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: like a side character in a horror movie. I'd go

250
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: down and check the basement way early. Next thing, you know,

251
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: I'm out of there and I'm a winner. I left

252
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: the show. I'm a winner. I don't have anything to

253
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: prove and dance. I would go back for you know,

254
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: if they were like, hey, would you guess judge or

255
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: I was almost host of the show, and I have

256
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: an interview with Tom Berger coming up on the Bobbycast

257
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: soon where we talk about that. But no, I would

258
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: not go back and do a whole season. Even if

259
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: they said, well, you come back and do a dance

260
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: with somebody like you know they do like the triple

261
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: three way or I don't know what they call that.

262
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: That kind of sounds pervy. I don't even know that

263
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 1: I'd have to really consider even doing that because I

264
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: think that I would hurt the person dancing unless they

265
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 1: were of limited dance ability. I don't know that I

266
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 1: would go back either because I know my role there.

267
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: How do you keep the show or podcast from being boring? Well,

268
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: the answer there is I don't always. I think there

269
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: are times where the show and I don't think it's

270
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: purposefully and I don't think I always know when it's happening.

271
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: But it usually it catches when the show can get

272
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 1: stale because we're doing not the same things but the

273
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: same formula because it's work working well and we're told, hey,

274
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: you're killing it in these cities, and it's like, well,

275
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: maybe I'm not as fulfilled by it. But I'll give

276
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: you an example. Don't hold this hands me. I could

277
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: never do tell me something good again and be happy.

278
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 1: I could kick tell me something good that segment in

279
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: the balls and just ride off into the sunset. That

280
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: segment tests so high. I don't hate the segment. I

281
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: just get tired of doing it, Like I feel like

282
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: there's something else maybe I want to talk about there.

283
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: But people enjoy that segment, So I'm going to keep

284
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: doing that segment as long as people enjoy it. Kind

285
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: of my job. That thing could die and I'll be okay.

286
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: We've been doing that for twenty plus years. Like I

287
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: actually own the trademark to it to tell me something good.

288
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: I just made before I said this here. I made

289
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: sure last week. I own the trademark to anything that

290
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: tell me something good audio as a segment in any

291
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: of that, because we've been doing it for so long,

292
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: and I've paid for the trademark. But and there are times,

293
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: for sure where things can get stale, especially doing it

294
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: this long, or some change has to happen. So how

295
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: do I keep it from being boring? I don't always.

296
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: I try to, but I don't always. And I do

297
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: understand that if you just do something for a long time,

298
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: it can get stale. There are podcasts of shows that

299
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: I've listened to and I'd be like, I'm just kind

300
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 1: of bored by it now, And sometimes I go back

301
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: and it's way better and changed, and hopefully that happens

302
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: with us that if people leave, they give us a

303
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: break to come back and there's something fresh about it.

304
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: I think there's also something to the fact that I've

305
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: had the same crew and this is a positive for

306
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: twenty years, that we could fall into that pretty easily.

307
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: But also like there's some real consistency, familiarity, there's some

308
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: comfortability with all of us doing it together for so long. Listen,

309
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: if it were a miserable place to work, people wouldn't

310
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: be last in twenty years. I promise you. I'm not

311
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: always the easiest guy to work for. I have no patience.

312
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: But if it wasn't generally a wonderful place to work

313
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: and we weren't winning on a wonderful level, there wouldn't

314
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: be these wonderfully long careers of all of us working

315
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: together for twenty plus years. So yeah, I don't have

316
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: a good answer, except sometimes it does get stale, and

317
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: I apologize for that. Do you ever hang out with

318
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: artists after an interview almost never. I was trying to

319
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: think of times if it's a friend and it's hey,

320
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: come and do the podcast, and then we'll go get

321
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: some dinner or something, and that's pre planned out because

322
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: there's a friendship involved. Yes, but it's so rare. Brett

323
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: Eldridge and I was one of my best friends. Maybe

324
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: the last time he came over, we went to just

325
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: eat after it, because we hang out a couple times

326
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: a week. So but it'd have to be something like that.

327
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: I have made friends from doing the podcast, meaning my

328
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: introduction to people were in this environment because this is

329
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: a very intimate environment. I meaning we're not naked filling

330
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: each other's holes, but we are sitting a few feet

331
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: from each other, relying on each other. Because I'm asking

332
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: a question, I'm trusting that they're going to give me

333
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: a good answer. They're trusting that when they're done talking,

334
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to follow up or go somewhere at least

335
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: for good ones. Like there's a lot of trust and

336
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: intimacy involved in a one on one interview that's thirty

337
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: forty fifty sixty seventy minutes, and so there have been

338
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: friends that have come from it. I would say one

339
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: of them is Been Rector, Been Rector Artist. Whoa whoa, whoa,

340
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: whoa whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. That's one of his songs.

341
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: Maybe you've heard it. He's a dear friend of mine

342
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: now and he is from Oklahoma, went to school at

343
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: University of Arkansas, and I knew his music, but I

344
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: never met him, and I had friends that knew him

345
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: and they were I was like, Ben Rector, it's a

346
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: great guy. And I was like, I don't care. And

347
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: so we did an interview and it reminded me that

348
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: I hadn't met him once in a Southwest flight in

349
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: line for the bathroom and I was like, Ben Rector

350
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: and he was like guy, and I was like, that's right,

351
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: I'm a guy. And so we had that memory and

352
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: we sat and we talked and we did this interview

353
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 1: and you can again it's a very intimate thing. And

354
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 1: then after that we just I think started dming. Now

355
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: our families know each other. Now my wife and his

356
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,479
Speaker 1: wife will just make plans to go spend time together

357
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: like it's like that. So I have had instances where

358
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: that has happened, where I've sat with people become friends

359
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: with them through this, or at least that's launched the

360
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: possibility of a friendship. But no, no, really, we don't

361
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: hang out after interviews becase I'm tired. It's I'd compare

362
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 1: it to being on a seven or eight hour road

363
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: trip where you're like, why am I tired? I've done

364
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: nothing but sit here for seven or eight hours, But

365
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 1: your brains had to work the whole time, even if

366
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: you know it isn't working. Your brains had to work

367
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: the whole time. Because I'm going, Okay, what are they answering?

368
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: I want to listen to what they're saying. I want

369
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: to follow up with what they're saying. I have a

370
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: point that I want to get to. I have a

371
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: full narrative that I think I think would be great. Nope,

372
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: not doing that, got a pivot. All this is happening,

373
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: and so after it's over, I'm tired. That being said,

374
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: I guess Luke Combs, we did a Bobbycast recently and

375
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: we probably stayed around fifteen minutes just talking, like off cameras,

376
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 1: just catching up. I like loop, but that's rare, and

377
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: that's probably the most Yeah, but almost never all right,

378
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: two more, four more? What's the worst piece of advice

379
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 1: you've ever gotten, to be patient, because a lot of

380
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: times patients just turn simply into waiting. It's not strategically

381
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: waiting for something, it's just I'll just wait. I have

382
00:19:54,320 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: found it has been way more beneficial to me to

383
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,479
Speaker 1: be aggressive, even if it's unsuccessful. Then do be patient,

384
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 1: because if you do something and it goes wrong, at

385
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: least you know it was wrong. If you do nothing

386
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: and nothing happens, you don't know if it's right or wrong.

387
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: And if you do something wrong, you can always make

388
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: a judgment and change your pattern. If you're just waiting,

389
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: you really can't do anything. You're not doing anything, And

390
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: a lot of times patience turns into paralysis, especially for me.

391
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: So when people say just be patient about this or that,

392
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 1: I find that to be extremely negative advice. But also,

393
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: like I said earlier, I'm not patient. I'm not a

394
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: patient person at all. I even talk fast, like everything

395
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 1: about me is fast. I can't sleep at night because

396
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: my brain's going five hundred miles an hour. That's why

397
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: I take xanax sometimes anyway, mostly to sleep. Though. Let's see,

398
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,719
Speaker 1: what's something you bought when you first made money that

399
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: you immediately regretted. Okay, I'll tell something I bought. It

400
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 1: wasn't on a first man money. That I still regret

401
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: buying those stupid Apple Vision Google What are those called, Mike,

402
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 1: Apple Vision pro don't buy. I spent four thousand dollars

403
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: in those things. I use them three times. There's a

404
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: had as a cord and a battery. It's cool when

405
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: you have it on, but like your neck hurts, it's heavy,

406
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: and you got to walk around with a battery pack.

407
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: If they made that a lot better, I think that

408
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: would be cool. What did I buy early on that

409
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: I regret? Oh, I was in a boat club. Terrible.

410
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: I was smart enough not to buy a boat, but

411
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: I got in a boat club, and as a terrible decision.

412
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: Because one I didn't use it enough anyway I thought

413
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 1: I would. I got a boat club. I think part

414
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: of it was because I didn't have any friends. You

415
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: don't want to go out on a boat by yourself,

416
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: and you need probably three people to actually pull like

417
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: a weight board. And so when a friend bails on

418
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: you too the morning of oh I can't go. You

419
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: can't do anything on the boat. And I hate the

420
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 1: water too. There's a lot of reasons this didn't work

421
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 1: out for me, But then you would get there, and

422
00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: if you didn't book it enough time, you didn't get

423
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: the good boat. And then if you didn't get the

424
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: good boats, sometimes you got stuck with a pontoon. That's

425
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 1: a real waste of money. But do not recommend zero

426
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: out of ten that. So that was early an Apple

427
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 1: vision pro. Those are the two things, and then let's

428
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: do one more. Do you feel like with success it

429
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 1: makes you less relatable? No, I've never been relatable. Now,

430
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 1: I've had life experiences that people can relate to. I've

431
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: always been insane, so I don't feel like what I

432
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: say day to day is relatable. I feel like I'm

433
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: extremely anxious about everything. I see the world through insane lens.

434
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 1: I sometimes believe in the best and the worst and

435
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: people in the exact same time. I don't trust the government.

436
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 1: There's just a lot of stuff here. I don't think

437
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: that I'm that relatable. I think I am extremely compelling

438
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 1: at times. I think I have to turn the volume

439
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 1: up sometimes on my feelings and emotions. That's just a

440
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: performance part of this job. I think a lot of

441
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 1: my life story is relatable, but I do not think

442
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: I have ever been relatable anywhere that I've been. I've

443
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: always been insane, and I think that's been that's been

444
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 1: what has interested people. And I think the relatability has

445
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: been where I come from, what I come from, where

446
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: I come from, and what that has left inside of me.

447
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: But I in no way think I'm relatable. I've never

448
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: thought I was relatable. I remember being in Austin, and

449
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: Austin is a place where, especially when I first started there,

450
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: and I love Austin. It's my favorite city. If I'm

451
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: ranking them, man, I can't go home cities first though,

452
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: because I'm probably can put Faveville at one, but since

453
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: I'm from Arkansas, I don't feel like that's fair. So

454
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: if I remove everywhere from Arkansas because Fayville will be

455
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: number one, Austin's got to be number one. It's my

456
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: number one city, even more than Nashville. Shout out Nashville,

457
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 1: but Austin. Like I grew up, all my adult growing

458
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: was in Austin, and it didn't get cold, So shout

459
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: out to places that don't get cold. I love Austin.

460
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: And when I got and I started doing mornings because

461
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: I didn't do mornings, I did nights there and they

462
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: fired the morning show and they were like, Okay, we

463
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: don't know what we're going to do. I got a

464
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 1: job offer to go to Seattle to do a bigger

465
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: night show, and so I was like, I'm out. Station sucks.

466
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: Night show really didn't matter, and it's and it they

467
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: matter now, but they don't really impact ratings to the

468
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 1: level that a morning show and then a little bit

469
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: an afternoon show does. And so I was like, I'm out, Austin,

470
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: You've been cool. I was every about a year and

471
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: they were like, what can we do to get you

472
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: to stay? And I said, give me mornings. I was

473
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 1: twenty two and they were like, ha haha. In my

474
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 1: version of it now they spin in my face. They didn't,

475
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 1: but I'm like, they spit in my face and then

476
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 1: pooped in my hair and told me to get out

477
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:51,160
Speaker 1: of the room. And so I left and in my version,

478
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: I cried in the corner. But no, I just went home.

479
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 1: And I didn't expect them to give me the morning job.

480
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: I was twenty two years old. Because it was a

481
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: multi million I knew they're going to flip the format anyway,

482
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 1: and so I was gonna take the job. In Seattle,

483
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: and so I told the people and say, oh, hey,

484
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna take the job. I didn't commit

485
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 1: to it yet, but give me a week or so.

486
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: They were like, cool, we'd love to have you. And

487
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: so I went back to working on Monday or maybe

488
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: even Tuesday, and they were like, hey, we want you

489
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 1: to do mornings here and I was like what, and

490
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: they said, we'll pay fifty thousand dollars a year. And

491
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm rich. I can't wait to buy

492
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: an Apple prop Up Plus. And this is fifteen years

493
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,400
Speaker 1: before it came out, and I was like, I'm so rich.

494
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 1: Now I'm going to buy an Apple Vision Plus and

495
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to waste my money on and getting a

496
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 1: boat club on the same day. That's how rich it

497
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: felt whenever I got paid fifty thousand dollars a year.

498
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: So it was unbelievable to me to make that kind

499
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: of money. So I start and I buy myself and

500
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: I don't have anybody with me. It's just me in

501
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 1: a room. But all the advice that I would get

502
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: from people was, hey, man, this is Austin. We like

503
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: only eat local. If we're going to like have a salad,

504
00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: we pull over in the side of the road, eat

505
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: it from the field, like we get out and we

506
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: chew the ground. That's how local. We only talk about

507
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: local Austin music. Austin is weird and you better be

508
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: and every woman you know better have armpit hair. It

509
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: was that. It was that ever, and that's what I

510
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 1: was told, and I was like, this is not true.

511
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: They were like, if you want to be relatable to Austin,

512
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: this is what you do. And I just didn't think

513
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: that was accurate. So I did the opposite of that

514
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: because it's how I lived, and I was like brom

515
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: and Chili's like three times a week. I really made

516
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 1: a point to be as non relatable as possible, but

517
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: it's what ended up separating me from everybody else. And

518
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: we had a span. We were like not just number one,

519
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 1: but like tripled up other shows for like three years.

520
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: Is wild. I never once pulled over an eighth the

521
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 1: grass from the side of the road as I was

522
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 1: told to, and the girls I knew shaved their armpits,

523
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: So I was not being what I thought was relatable

524
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: then purposefully, But I've never just been so relatable that

525
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: you hear me say stuff and go I relate to

526
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 1: what that guy says. Now you may relate to where

527
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: I come from or why I say certain things. And

528
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: I hope that's the case, and I think that's the case,

529
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: and at times I know that's the case. But I

530
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: don't think that my success or lack of success, has

531
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: ever made me more or less relatable. I've also gotten

532
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: more comfortable with showing now that I have been successful,

533
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: and that's been a little burden for a long time.

534
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: I was like, I can't show anything because I don't

535
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: want people to know that I have had any success

536
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: or I'm making any real money. And my wife, this

537
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: is like in the last five years. She was like,

538
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: you don't think they know you're rich now, Like are

539
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 1: you stupid? And I was like yeah, but she's like,

540
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 1: you're not flawning it. If you're living it, you're not

541
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,479
Speaker 1: flawning it. And there's a difference, like people can tell

542
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 1: the different people are smart when they see what you do,

543
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: who you are, and actually they're probably judging you because

544
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: they know you're not saying certain things on purpose. I

545
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: thought that thought that's pretty good. So I don't think

546
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: that I'm any more or less relatable than I ever

547
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: have been. I do think I'm odd, and maybe that

548
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: is what relatability is. Like Socrates said he was the

549
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: smartest man in the world because he knew he knew nothing.

550
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: That has nothing to do with what I just said,

551
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: but I like to end on that. Thank you for

552
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: all the questions. I hope you enjoyed this as much

553
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: as I did. I got to all of them but one,

554
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: and the other one was which artist you hate the most?

555
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: I'll answer that one next time, so i'd be listening

556
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: next time when I answered that one. And also how

557
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: big joiner? Those are the two that I'm going to

558
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 1: answer on the next Bobbycast. It's not a Bobbycast by

559
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 1: a Bone Show Part two. Whatever this is, I have

560
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: no idea what I'm on. I'm just answering questions and

561
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 1: we'll see you guys next time. By everybody,
