1
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: I would get up and just do rocky talk you

2
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: see tutsis And actually that's how somebody ended up hearing me,

3
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: and words started getting around randomly.

4
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 2: Welcome Everybody, episode four sixty two with Ashley Monroe. Such

5
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 2: a good songwriter, a wonderful artist. Recently, you know, she

6
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: said she was making a fresh start because she had

7
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 2: a cancer battle, which was in the news for a while. So,

8
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I've known her for a long time, and

9
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 2: to be honest, we hadn't talked in a while. But

10
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 2: it's one of those things where you have someone on

11
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: social media and you just kind of follow along. I

12
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: think I sent her a couple of messages when you

13
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 2: know she was sick, but or when I heard about it.

14
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 3: But it was really good to see her. If she's

15
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 3: married to a former.

16
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball player, which school, that's cool, right, it's

Speaker 2: cool that meet your kids probably.

18
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: Already get in sports, right, all right? Or both?

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be awful if I use it me and

20
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 2: my wife. For example, she's not pregnant, but if the

21
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: kid got like my athletic ability, that would suck for

22
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: the kid and like get missed out on hers. So

23
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,640

Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like I know you. It's a

34
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 2: weird dynamic I have in my mind with you, right,

35
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 2: because we don't see each other that often, but I

36
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 2: feel like when we see each other it's so comfortable

37
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,279
Speaker 2: almost immediately, because I think we knew each.

38
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 3: Other way early on in my time here.

39
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, And so that feels like we have a

40
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 2: long term friendship where we don't ever see each other.

41
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,919

00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it never feels like, uh, it just feels like

45
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: if we're we don't see each other for a long time,

46
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 2: which is off in the case, that is just.

47
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 3: Normal immediately and we don't have to do all that, like,

48
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 3: oh god, hey, we don't ask how have you been?

49
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 3: You know what? We sure didn't do that, didn't we.

50
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,320

Speaker 1: am just hunting down like the best vintage pieces I

57
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: can find, and I just can't get enough. I mean,

58
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,200

Speaker 1: I mean, I just I love like the soul of clothes,

60
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: and so I get these things in my head, which

61
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: I had those boots in my head for a vintage

62
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: from the sixties, never been worn exactly my.

63
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 3: Size, never been worn.

64
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 2: But those that are listening and not watching, they are

65
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 2: like red, white and blue stars going up and kind

66
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 2: of wrapping round, but they go.

67
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 3: They're basically knee high boots. They haven't been worn at all.

68
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: No, not one scratch on the bottom. Nope, It's like

69
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: they're made for me.

70
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 3: Where did you find them? E's? Oh yeah, do you

71
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 3: do eBay at all?

72
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: No?

73
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: I don't ever do eBay.

74
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 2: I never did debay, and it came into a lot

75
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 2: of memorabilia sports memorabiliya. Yeah, and so I had too much.

76
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and I came into I mean I bought

77
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 3: it yeah right, yeah, and so.

78
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm gonna sell some of a bag

79
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,679
Speaker 2: because it was just like fun for me to acquire it. Right,

80
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 2: So I got a part of the eBay culture, but

81
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: never used to die.

82
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 3: They're right, it's been around for twenty years or whatever.

83
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: I never have used debay.

84
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: But now I get on eBay and I just type

85
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: in a keyword and I click ending soon and I'll

86
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 2: buy stuff by stuff I don't even need, but just

87
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: because it's like a lower price than it should be.

88
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it's a problem because I don't need it

89
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 3: to steal, but I try to get the steal.

90
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, because you're thinking you can resell it, sure, yeah, yeah,

91
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: I mean we think that.

92
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 3: Then they have to say that.

93
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: The eBay premium or I just like it and keep it. Yeah,

94
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: when I never had the plan to do that.

159
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they they both sing lead a lot.

160
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 3: Jack White, you ever met him? You know? Oh?

161
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know him because he It was in two

162
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: thousand and eight. He reached out to me because he

163
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: heard me on WSM in his car, heard me on

164
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,640

Speaker 1: with them.

167
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:04,559

Speaker 1: been on the road with the Third Man Band and

170
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: wanted Jackson when he produced that record.

00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 2: like right right, But I've never met him a person.

177
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: Is he really because I'm I'm pale as crap? But

178
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 2: is he really pale in person?

179
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 3: Yea?

180
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: Like I respect that because I don't want to see

181
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 2: the sun ever. Yeah, I have no interest in the sun.

182
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: So opposite and it's gonna.

183
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're extremely tand like I don't.

184
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: Have to have so much work done.

185
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 3: That's okay.

186
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: I have spray tan too though.

187
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, spray town to fix it all. Yeah, I'm

188
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: just I'm an enemy of the sun.

189
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's wise.

190
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: You know, I don't like it. I feel like and

191
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 2: so I've and I've never drank.

192
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 3: I would like to drink, seems fine.

193
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: I don't drink anymore.

194
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 3: Really, but but I would like to have drink.

195
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't drink anymore, but maybe I would have

196
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: liked to have had you have drink. I just I

197
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: don't know how to relax, so, but what I do

198
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 2: know how to do is be addicted to everything. So

199
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 2: I know, you know, I've never drank. But since I

200
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 2: haven't drank and I haven't been in the sun a

201
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: whole lot, I felt pretty good about my chances for

202
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: like for like a pretty like unless something like hits

203
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 2: my bus hits me, I feel.

204
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 3: Pretty good on my life. Really. The only thing, yeah,

205
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 3: why do you stop drinking?

206
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: Because I just started noticing I didn't like how I acted,

207
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: what I said, how I felt, what I did like

208
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: everything about it. I started going, I don't even like,

209
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: I don't like how it tastes. For sure, I'm like,

210
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: what what's the point?

211
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 3: And you know, so what was the point? Is? Everybody

212
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 3: else was doing it?

213
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: It was so much fun, that's what I wanted. That's

214
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: so much fun.

215
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 3: Okay, now I want to drink again.

216
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: I know. But when you have stuff to lose, the

217
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: fund's not worth it. That's the thing that shifts in

218
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: life is like, oh, well that's so dumb. The fight

219
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: you had when you're wrong, or all those things that

220
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: you're young and care free.

221
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,719
Speaker 3: It's just like, whatever what happens with your mind? Does

222
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 3: it ever? Stop making music? Can you take a break.

223
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 2: Either psychologically emotionally however, and just go I'm not gonna

224
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 2: do music? For a minute, or is it always going

225
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 2: with something?

226
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: It's always going with something. Oh, there is no turning

227
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: it off. It's like how I breathe.

228
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 3: Always a song in your head or maybe a melody,

229
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 3: either a song that you heard or a melody that

230
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 3: you're working on. Is it always something that or something

231
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 3: I'm longing for?

232
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: Like I I'm listening to something like looking for feeling

233
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: in music and not searching out if I'm not writing.

234
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: It as in you're chasing Maybe this isn't what you're

235
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: trying to say, like you're chasing an inspiration or maybe

236
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 2: you're inspired and you're trying to I don't know what

237
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: do you mean by that?

238
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: Like I'll just think, I'll get in the car and goo,

239
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: how do I feel? And it'll be like either you know,

240
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: like a little Wayne.

241
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 3: Oh, so you'll play defined to identify.

242
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: How you feel. Yeah, then but then I'll kind of

243
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: start searching for something that has a certain feeling in it,

244
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: Like I'm always searching for a feeling that's in It's

245
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: in like deep and it's in a lot of restless

246
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,719
Speaker 1: heart songs. It's in that crowded house, a lot of

247
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: crowded house songs. I don't know if it's a way.

248
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a way like the chords

249
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: go or something, but it's like a mood that's normally

250
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: what I'm searching for.

251
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you're a minor or a major

252
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: person minor? I thought I was gonna say that some

253
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 2: people could be insulted by that. I feel like I'm

254
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 2: very much a minor what I enjoy at least. Do

255
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 2: you feel like you're an artist minor?

256
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and my initials are AM a minor. I really

257
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 1: think that's so accurate. I have so many songs to

258
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: start in a minor?

259
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 2: What key do you sing in? If you were to

260
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 2: pick your favorite where you feel most comfortable.

261
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: I kind of can find something on in every range.

262
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 2: But like if there's like pick your you're gonna sing

263
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: for the king of the world and sing your.

264
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 3: Best song, irobably, see, I can only sing in D.

265
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 3: Really that I can't sing.

266
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 2: So the only you know, I do music, comedy, music

267
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: right to everything in D because I have to because

268
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 2: I can't get I can.

269
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 3: Barely get in it, and I have no ability to.

270
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: Get out of it. So it's the good key.

271
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 3: What's the it's the easiest key.

272
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: Actually, normally, when I get a guitar, I'll just play E.

273
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: That's my first like thing I'll hit.

274
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 3: But have you ever seen the national anthem?

275
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: Oh? Gosh, I used to at tractor pools and those

276
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: and stuff in East Tennessee.

277
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 3: But did you have to say and that matched the picture?

278
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 3: Could you just get it?

279
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 1: I could get it, but it was nerve wracking. I mean, oh,

280
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: it was nerve wracking. I remember I'd have to write that.

281
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: The words on post its in my hands. My hands

282
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: were so sweaty.

283
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,719
Speaker 2: And yeah, the problem with that national anthem? And it's

284
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 2: a great and I want everybody know I love America. Yes,

285
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 2: I can't get enough America, love it. Wish there were

286
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: more Americas. And I will speak for my friends that

287
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: won't say this because they won't like how it's misinterpreted.

288
00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 3: And you're not saying this either.

289
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 2: But that's a very difficult not song to sing, although

290
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 2: it has its difficulties. But if you do it and

291
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 2: you crush it, everybody forgets about it thirty seconds later.

292
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 2: If you mess it up in any way, it will

293
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: be put everywhere. And it's almost not worth going out

294
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 2: and risking it because all of a sudden. You're a

295
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 2: terrible American if you mess it up when it was

296
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 2: just an honest mistake.

297
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 1: It's just too much pressure and the words are tricky,

298
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 1: and then you overthink it and then it's over. I

299
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: mean some people do it beautifully though without seeming to.

300
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 1: I mean a little big Ton just did it at

301
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: one of the Pred's games, and I'm like, they've got it.

302
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: I mean Stapleton, I mean.

303
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they have it. I would just be nervous

304
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 2: with messing it up more than singing it. Like I remember,

305
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 2: Luke got in trouble for writing on his writing words

306
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 2: on his hand, Luke Bryan, Remember that I didn't. And

307
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 2: I worked with Luke for years and years away from

308
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 2: like Nashville. We did American Idol together, and so we

309
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: just hang out because you just be sitting forever, and

310
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: we were watching somebody sing National Night the ball game, like, man,

311
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 2: I don't do that.

312
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 3: I can't do that anymore. After because he he.

313
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 2: Wrote a couple of words just so he wouldn't mess up,

314
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: and he looked down and got roasted for it because

315
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 2: he wrote bad.

316
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: You get roasted no matter what I get there in

317
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: this world.

318
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 3: I get roasted every day.

319
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 4: Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor. Wow,

320
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 4: and we're back on the Bobby Cast.

321
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,079
Speaker 3: How you feeling. I'm feeling good, healthy?

322
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, what so what's twenty twenty four? My last chemo

323
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:41,839
Speaker 1: was December one, and ever since I've I get checked

324
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: every three months. I think now it's going to switch

325
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: to six months.

326
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 2: Was that the recommendation three for a while and then six?

327
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 2: Is it still nerve wracking every time you get checked?

328
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like I don't think about it. You know

329
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: how when things happen, you put them in like the

330
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: too hard pile of your soul. Well that one's over there.

331
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: And but I every time, like the day of my

332
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: my labs and stuff, it's like I put the mask

333
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: on going to the hospital and like it's like your

334
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: body thinks it's gonna happen again or something. But yeah,

335
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: I just struck through and so far it's been good.

336
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 3: Were cleared? How do they clear?

337
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: You?

338
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 4: Do?

339
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 3: They say? Hey, we checked and you're you're now free?

340
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 3: Your cancer free? Like what is that?

341
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: It was tricky because I went to Vanderbilt and I

342
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: when I first was diagnosed, I just kind of went

343
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: in a prayer zone. And just said, show me what

344
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 1: I need to do, and I would kind of start,

345
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, seeing things in my head. And the

346
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: first thing I saw was the word Vanderbilt because I

347
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: just had doctors kind of all over like I think

348
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: that's normal. So I just got I got Vanderbilt. I

349
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: got a concier doctor who you know, I could go

350
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: in and get you know, fluids or whatever I needed.

351
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: And I got you know, all my doctors there, and

352
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: then I just started really listening to my gut. So

353
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: bone marrow biopsy is how they found it, which was.

354
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 3: Oh, why did they even do that? Is it because

355
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 3: you were not good? Like feeling not feeling good?

356
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: I was anemic and they couldn't get to the bottom

357
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: of why it was so anemic. And so I just

358
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: and I tried everything you know to do not have

359
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: to do a bone marrow biopsy, but it just kept

360
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it was going kind of fast, you know,

361
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: and at that point, it's like they worry that your

362
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: butt will be so thick that you have a stroke,

363
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: and I kind of was getting lightheaded and whatever. So

364
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: I got a bone marrow biopsy, which is just I

365
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: hated that so bad, and they want you to get

366
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: one in the middle of your treatment plan and at

367
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: the end. But I just told them, I'm not doing

368
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: that again unless it's going to change the course of

369
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: our treatment. Like so it's interesting and they were fine

370
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: with it. It's interesting what things if you really pay

371
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: attention to your gut, that you can kind of say

372
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: no to. And you know, we kind of just do

373
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: whatever the doctors say. But so at first, you know,

374
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: they had to do it to diagnose, which I understood,

375
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 1: and you know, they said six months of chemo and ratuxin,

376
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: which is amniotherapy, and oh and it was rough. It

377
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: was rough, honestly because I was already so an ee mix.

378
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: So then you just get so knocked down.

379
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 3: Just wiped out. Gosh.

380
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I was just but I would just

381
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: come home and go to bed, you know, and just

382
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: think okay, And then after like four days, you know,

383
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: three or four days, I'd be like, all right, I'm

384
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: gonna go upstairs, I work out, make myself move, you know.

385
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: But then the first couple of months, yeah, I was

386
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: I had to get you know, several blood transfusions and

387
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: stuff because it was like everything was an infection. Everything

388
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: was just weird. It's just so crazy.

389
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 3: What were you thinking about to get you through that?

390
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: You know, there's just those moments in time that's just

391
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: like pure, like I'm going to put my head down,

392
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: and probably like disassociation in a way, which some people

393
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: think of it as a bad thing, and I think

394
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: it's bad if you live in it, but sometimes it's

395
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 1: kind of handy.

396
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, sometimes it's required.

397
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, shock is like a good thing sometimes, which.

398
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 3: Is why it actually happens right like this.

399
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 2: It is actually a defense, right, Shock is a fricking

400
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 2: defense to make sure you don't completely lose your crap.

401
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 2: And when they say, hey, you're good, had you already

402
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 2: built back up? I mean, did you feel like you

403
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 2: were healthier leading up to it?

404
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah?

405
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 2: Is it a slow inclined back to I don't normally

406
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 2: isout the word, but back to what you used to

407
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: feel like.

408
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: It was and better? You know, at the end, my

409
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: my red blood levels were in the normal range. Everything

410
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: was even better so than when I started.

411
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 3: So healthier.

412
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, and platelets, like my overall platelets at one

413
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: point they got down to thirty. That was at the beginning,

414
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: And now they're like.

415
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 3: I don't know what that means? Though, like I don't

416
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 3: know the comparison.

417
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 1: I think normals like one forty to three hundred.

418
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 3: You were, and you were at thirty.

419
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 1: I was thirty. Yeah, and now I'm like every time

420
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: I get them, that's like one something.

421
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 2: Do you have anything that you used to monitor yourself? No,

422
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 2: because if it were like an or ring, I'd be obsessed.

423
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 2: I had to quit an or ring obviously not the

424
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 2: same thing, but I wore that stupid I looked at it,

425
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: looked at it every thirty seconds.

426
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: I have to throw away in mine to my or

427
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 1: rings or any sort of a off it. It's too

428
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: much power.

429
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 3: Yep.

430
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 2: And I would wake up in the middle of the

431
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 2: night to check my sleep, which is the.

432
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 3: Exact topic Bobby, exactly was it right?

433
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: Was it?

434
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 3: Yeah?

435
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 2: It'd be like, you're not asleep and you need sleep,

436
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 2: and I'd be like, yeah, it's a good point.

437
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 3: I'm awake to check out my or ring.

438
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 1: It knows too much.

439
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

440
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 2: So I can't if I have any opportunity to like

441
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 2: over monitor same, I have to not do it at all.

442
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 2: Like I haven't looked at and things have been the

443
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 2: past three or four years definitely different with like the

444
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 2: radio show not so much the podcast, because I would

445
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 2: look at numbers of everything all the time. Yeah, I

446
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 2: get it, and have two modes. I need to look

447
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 2: at every number all the time or nothing thing.

448
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: Yep, I one hundred percent understand that. And it's a

449
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 1: control thing, you know. It's I think that people who

450
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: don't we don't drink. I mean, there has to be

451
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: a flare up and control is a biggie. I mean

452
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, and actually this sickness forced me. I'm

453
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: still kind of a control freak, but I'm less of

454
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: one because when you experience something with that out of

455
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: your control. There was a moment where I just said,

456
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 1: take it fine, I can't control it, and then there

457
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: was such a good feeling about that. Really, so it's

458
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 1: good to kind of remind ourselves Like, but I think

459
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: the better option to that is not to look at

460
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: the things or not to eliminate things that are gonna.

461
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, my wife will be like, is your ring charge

462
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 2: you wearing it? I'm like, no, I don't charge what ring?

463
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, I don't. I just don't do it, and

464
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: I don't look at numbers. Every once in a while

465
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 2: that it might out and be like, hey, give me

466
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 2: the give me a month from the past fourteen month.

467
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 2: But if I do, yeah, like I drown in them.

468
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 1: I know, I get it. I don't know. I stay

469
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: aloof on purpose. I don't. I haven't looked at the

470
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: chart well maybe ever, even when I barely graized them

471
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: back in the day, I thought, what's me looking at it?

472
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 3: Going to do anything that's pretty healthy?

473
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: Make me nervous, wreck and make me not want to

474
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: do music? Well, that's defeats the purpose.

475
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 3: Did you ever have when you were going through your illness?

476
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 2: Did you stop focusing on music or did you focus

477
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 2: on in a different way, like did you use music

478
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 2: at all?

479
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: No? I went like, that's the only time that in

480
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: pregnancy that my music button was just like really pause. Yeah,

481
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: I don't know why did it?

482
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:31,479
Speaker 3: When did they come out?

483
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 2: And I'm leading up to asking about this specific project,

484
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 2: but when did the music bug kind of get back

485
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 2: in your system? I feel like it's always lived there,

486
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 2: like I took a vacation. When did it come back

487
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 2: and move back in.

488
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: And move back in when I got healthy?

489
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

490
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: And it was like, you know, you process these things

491
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:48,239
Speaker 1: without even knowing it. You know that you're taking it

492
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: in and what you know. I'll just feel like this

493
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: feeling like go get the guitar, ghosted it at the piano.

494
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: I always say, it's like an emotional sneeze. It's just like, Okay,

495
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: something needs to happen. And then a lot of times,

496
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 1: if I'll just push record and just start, I don't

497
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: know whatever it is. If I'll go back and listen,

498
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: there's words in there that I can sound out. It's

499
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: really interesting.

500
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 3: You a melody writer or like a lyric writer, if

501
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,959
Speaker 3: you and both I mean both, but which one do

502
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 3: you feel like you gravitate toward more instinctually?

503
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 1: It's like I, I guess melodies. I love to like

504
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: attempt to make a melody that like breaks your heart

505
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: or like you feel you know what I mean? And

506
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: then words. I have all these notebooks. I mean, I

507
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: feel like I do both. I just a lot of

508
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: times I'll get a melody first, I guess, and then

509
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: I'll go look at my word ideas.

510
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I thought I was. I was.

511
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 2: Literally The next question, like, you ever create like a

512
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: really cool melody and then you go back and you

513
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: find something you wrote eight months ago or pieces of

514
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 2: different things, like how does that work?

515
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 3: Creatively?

516
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I love to go back. I'll just go

517
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: in my voice memos and go back to like twenty twelve,

518
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: you know, and there'll be a nugget on there. Did

519
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: that the other day on a flight.

520
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 2: They a melody and a voice memoi. But words in

521
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 2: a book or do you leave words in a voice

522
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 2: memo too?

523
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: Uh? No, words in the voice momoent Yeah, I trust it.

524
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 1: But I found a bunch of old Annie's things actually

525
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: that I put organized in a folder for us of

526
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: like ideas we had had on the bus years ago

527
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: that were good, you know, just I would have never

528
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 1: remembered the melodies. I would have never so I try to.

529
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: I'm try trying to be good about like organizing them

530
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: so they don't just fall off the edge of the world.

531
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: It's always cool because there would be things that I

532
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 2: would have written and or even jokes that I it

533
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 2: wasn't the right time, and then you go back and

534
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 2: you're like, oh man, this was so good.

535
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 3: I can still use this.

536
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 2: That's always a good feeling, and also reminded me I

537
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 2: wasn't because I hate old stuff. I always hate the

538
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 2: old stuff that I've done, and I feel like that's

539
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 2: healthy ish because I maybe it feel like I'm growing.

540
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like we don't identify because it's like we

541
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: can respect what we did back then. Like I'll go

542
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: back and listen to Gosh even five years ago, and

543
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: my twain is just so twiny, which everyone's always like

544
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: that's a good thing. It's like now I'm like, we'll

545
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: just try to ease up on your eyes and your whatever.

546
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: But I respect. But it just sounds like a little

547
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: old country girl.

548
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 3: That's funny.

549
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 1: I still am. I'm just an older country girl.

550
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I went to speech pathology for years because

551
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 2: being from Arkansas, my accent was super thick. Yeah, right,

552
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 2: And it was it was the eyes, eyes or the

553
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 2: iron g's and those those were the biggest two. When

554
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 2: they did they have you say all this stuff, and

555
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 2: it'd be like, I just want to go fishing, and

556
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 2: they'd be like, okay, well let's work on a few

557
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 2: of these things. And it was the eyes that was

558
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 2: the biggest one. And I think if you're from where we're.

559
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: From, yeah, it's kind of undoable.

560
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 3: The eyes are tough.

561
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: I'll take the if I'll untwing.

562
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 3: And then the I in g's.

563
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 2: But it's funny that you feel like you were, or

564
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 2: people tell you were twangy year. Yeah, have you made

565
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 2: any like purposefully not been as twangy like with the

566
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 2: new stuff?

567
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: Or no, I just try to if one sneaks out

568
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: that's just so over the top, I'll be like, oh,

569
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: I just gotta I don't try to take all of

570
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: them out.

571
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 3: Just the why why this record? Like what I don't

572
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 3: know what's happening here with this record?

573
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: It's happening. So I just kind of felt like after

574
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: the whole ordeal, kind of like a homecoming of the

575
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: soul sorts.

576
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 3: I just.

577
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: I started hearing these melodies. Some of the songs on

578
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: the record are actually old, like two thousand and four,

579
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: you know, or when they were written. It's just songs

580
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,719
Speaker 1: that have always meant so much to me, but they

581
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: kind of tell a story, and it's like I just

582
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: saw this vision in my mind of what I wanted

583
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: it to look like. It was like being from East Tennessee.

584
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: I've always had like that smoky mountain feeling. It's always

585
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: been in my soul, and I wanted to come back

586
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 1: and just kind of reflect that place and who I am.

587
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 2: Did you write a whole bunch of songs and cut

588
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 2: it down or did you go now that these are

589
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 2: the songs I want to do.

590
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 3: Let's do these songs.

591
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: I mean I knew some that I were going to do,

592
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 1: and then some are kind of newer. What I did

593
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: was myself and Guina Johnson, who was an amazing engineer

594
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: and producer, and I just took the mind out of

595
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 1: it and we went to East Tennessee. We were rented

596
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: this cabin from eighteen fifty beautiful that backed up to

597
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: the Smoky mountains, and we brought all of this gear

598
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 1: and her and I hold it up there and we

599
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: shoot too yeah wow, and unloaded it. We were pouring

600
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: the sweat. I mean, it was like but we set

601
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 1: it up and I started recording. I just went in

602
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 1: the zone without thinking, you know. We went out on

603
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 1: the porch and she would record. We went out, put

604
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 1: a quilt in the yard and she recorded. That's what

605
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: I like trains is you can hear all the critters,

606
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: you know, because it's but I wanted that. I wanted

607
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: those textures like kind of woven throughout this whole scene.

608
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 3: Was she ever like, it's hard to do this because

609
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 3: I gotta edit, get edit the squirrel out. It's only

610
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 3: edit half a Squirrel out. No.

611
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 1: That's the thing about her is that it's kind of

612
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 1: magical when you take like the thinking part out and

613
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: just kind of go, let's see what needs to happen,

614
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: you know. And she knows I like singing in the dark,

615
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: so she turns all the lights off and lights candles

616
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: and I sit there and I don't know. It's it's

617
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: really cool as opposed to just going to stud dumb

618
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: being like, Okay, we gotta I gotta hit that note

619
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: by five.

620
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 2: You know, you ever have a song that's really emotional

621
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 2: and you cry while singing it?

622
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do.

623
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: I have a couple of those on on this album actually,

624
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: where I just yeah, and it always sneaks off. It's

625
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 1: like I can feel it right here and it's like, oh,

626
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: you know, but I think those moments are cool.

627
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 3: I mean I agree.

628
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 2: My answer is yes, I agree. It would be difficult

629
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 2: for that would be difficult for me. Yeah, I don't

630
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 2: think I have the vulnerability to do that. I've cried

631
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 2: on the air four or five, six sevens, I'm sure.

632
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 3: Yeah.

633
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 2: I never plan on it, and it's like it jumps me.

634
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 3: It's like I'm being attacked on anally. I didn't see

635
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:21,360
Speaker 3: it coming.

636
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 2: I know emotions like that, but then I can. I

637
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 2: also have the power to stop it and do it.

638
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 2: But I and a lot of times I'll choose to

639
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 2: stop it. Do you ever, do you just keep going?

640
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 2: Will you just keep going? Or will you kind of regather?

641
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I try to stay in it as long

642
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 1: as I can keep control. I cut the song the

643
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: other day just because I wanted to. It's an old

644
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: Loretta and Conway song. Conway actually wrote it. It's called

645
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: as soon as I hang up the phone, I just

646
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: said I want I want to sing it just because

647
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 1: I felt it my soul. But Loretta does this thing

648
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: at the end where she does cry, and I felt

649
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: that same emotion that the end has snuck up on

650
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: me too, And it's kind of in the thing.

651
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:00,640
Speaker 3: Do you do both parts?

652
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 1: I know I didn't do any Conway parts. He on

653
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: the recording, he's kind of doing like he's like on

654
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,479
Speaker 1: a CBE radio, like talking like I love you Loretta,

655
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,479
Speaker 1: she singing, and he's like, I'm sorry to Loretta. So

656
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 1: I just kind of.

657
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 2: Well, if you need a CBE guy, I'm your guy. Okay,

658
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 2: I can lay down to me and ceb I learned

659
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 2: how to play You're the reason our kids are ugly

660
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,919
Speaker 2: to me like that, that's like, that's a funny song, right,

661
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 2: And it's like that's what I think of when I

662
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 2: think of those two because I'm just not like funny music,

663
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: Like that's a good one.

664
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 3: Yeah you know that one? Yeah? Oh yeah.

Speaker 1: of like two stars just doing.

667
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,520

Speaker 2: Yeah at this point, you know what, You're right, at

693
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 2: this point, who cares? People find out ninety song records

694
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 2: and it doesn't matter, It doesn't hurt anything anymore.

695
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 3: There's infinite space.

696
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it costs money to make music, So I'm not

697
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 2: saying that it doesn't cost money to make music. There's

698
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 2: infinite space on on the music you put out now,

699
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 2: or it wasn't the case because there's only.

700
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 3: So much, so much room on a CD or tape.

701
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 3: Do you ever have tapes?

702
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,280

Speaker 1: and blues and you know all of the.

705
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 3: So you never bought a tape just generally you didn't

706
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 3: go to the store.

707
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:25,800

710
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: one side and then the karaoke version on the other side.

711
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't remember. I don't remember that.

712
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 2: I remember the singles, but they'd had like it'd be

713
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 2: like Vanilla Ice and then on the back side it'd

714
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 2: be Ices Baby, but then like play that funky music

715
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 2: white Boy in the back, so it'd be like one

716
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 2: side another one.

717
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

739
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 1: to meet her.

745
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 2: She like came in the studio one time, not even

746
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 2: as a yes. She just walked in the room once,

747
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 2: went what up everybody, and then left and I was like,

748
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 2: who was that?

749
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 3: And they were like there was like in rhymes. I

750
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 3: was like, oh wow, that's weird, not not in a

751
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 3: bad way, but she she just popped and yelled high

752
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 3: and walked out.

753
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: She's very mysterious. Then, like it just hiding from us.

754
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 3: What's touring like touring?

755
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 1: Well, I'm not touring really right now.

756
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 2: I'm going to tour with any shows though I know

757
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: you're in the UK stuff with a little big town.

758
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: UK, little big tone. I've played a show here in Nashville, So.

759
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 3: I guess my question is how did it feel to

760
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 3: do live music? Again.

761
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: I feels so great. You know, I love I love

762
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: singing so much, and I don't really sing at home.

763
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 1: Son doesn't really like it. And my husband but he

764
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: doesn't say anything. But I just home is not where

765
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 1: I sing. I sing like hidden in my room at home.

766
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: So it feels good to sing out for people.

767
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 3: It's like telling a pain or they can have paint

768
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 3: brushes in the house. What's happening here? Hey, da Vinci,

00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 3: That feels like yesterday.

774
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: I know, it really does. It's so sweet and I'm

775
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: I'm so funny. It's like I have my creative side.

776
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: I don't really like some people are really good at

777
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: like taking their kids on on tour or something. But

778
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, I do better if I can go focus

779
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: on that, you know, the work thing, and then come

780
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: home and then I'm in mom.

00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: No? No, no, no, no, no, I don't. He doesn't

784
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: really care about kid music. He he's always liked real music.

785
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 3: What about like kids TV shows like Bluebird? What's his name? Blue?

786
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 3: Blue and Blue, Yeah.

787
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: Two different ones. Yeah, both of those.

788
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've watched that. Would you ever do a kid's record?

789
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 2: We ever inspired to a kid's record? Because kids music suckt.

790
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's probably a way you can make it lullaby.

791
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 3: Oh you're talking about young young kids.

792
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: We're just like I mean, you know, Tom t Hall

793
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 1: put out that record that was really cool, so it

794
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: can be done. I've not really thought about it though.

795
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 3: Your son is he more music or sports?

796
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 2: You know?

797
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: He hums all the time. I noticed that, but then

798
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 1: he kind of throws the ball with John two. So

799
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 1: I can't really tell.

800
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 2: You two careers that I would be like you definitely

801
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 2: don't want I would never want my kid to get

802
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 2: into any sort of art. Yeah, although it's awesome, but

803
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: as you know, everybody wants to do art. So it's

804
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 2: really hard to do and there's a lot it's it's

805
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 2: a very difficult place to make yourself. It's a very

806
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 2: vulnerable place you have to be. I'm creating something and

807
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 2: I need you to tell me if you like it

808
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 2: or not. And my whole worth is, at least professionally,

809
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:53,360
Speaker 2: is gonna be based.

810
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 3: On if you like it or not. That's tough and

811
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 3: then make a living at it. Yeah, I just I

812
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 3: would rather you go just dig a hole like it

813
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 3: makes it doing that.

814
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 1: We'll see.

815
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 3: I don't know your husband. How tall is he?

816
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: My husband is six one, I guess maybe six two.

817
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 3: How tall are you?

818
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: Five six?

819
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 3: Okay, that's pretty those are both pretty average.

820
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 2: Then I'm just thinking about your son and what what

821
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 2: the awesome mix of jeans he's got unless he is

822
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 2: like I can't play sports because he's so any music,

823
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 2: but then he's like tone deaf at the same time,

824
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 2: he gets the worst into both.

825
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: I have been sneaking in some like I'll be like

826
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: match this, match this, and he'll instantly find it.

827
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 3: I don't think I can do that.

828
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 1: My mom can't do it.

829
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 3: Again.

830
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 5: Mm hm, oh my god, I heard it.

831
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 3: I heard it.

832
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 1: You've landed on it.

833
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 3: So I did not start there though, right I've looped.

834
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 3: Give me, give me one more, give me one more

835
00:35:58,719 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 3: that the same one?

836
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 1: Oh give me do If I thought you said, yeah,

837
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: the same one you.

00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 3: Want lower, I don't. I don't know.

839
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 2: Mm. That's like a harmony that I wasn't trying to do.

840
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: The harmony as the thing that one more time. H

841
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:23,280
Speaker 2: m m hmm, oh, I thought you did the first one. Mm.

842
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was it. That was it.

843
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 3: That's hard, I know. That's why I can only go.

844
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 3: I can only sing in one key and that's it.

845
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 3: That's the only and I only.

846
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: Kind of can you matched that last one? I hate

00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 1: of putting out one at a time. And I don't

859
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: really know.

860
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,520

862
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 3: she's got a real bite.

863
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 2: I like, yeah she does, and you don't really just

864
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 2: if you just look at her, maybe you don't see

865
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 2: the bite.

866
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: Yeah.

867
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 2: But man, when you hang out in the best way,

868
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,359
Speaker 2: like you hang out with her, like you learn about her,

869
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 2: you talk to her, you hear her music like she's

870
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 2: got it.

871
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 3: There's something.

872
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 1: I agree. We've written so many songs. I just can't

873
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: wait for her to release them. Actually, she's got a

874
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: few on my record too.

875
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 3: Yeah. What about her do you like?

876
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 1: I mean she kind of feels like a sister or

877
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: something to me, Like I explained it, like she's enough hippie,

878
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: she's enough like Appalachin, like angel vibes, but got an edge.

879
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: I don't know, we just we write so well together.

880
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: I bet we've written fifty songs, like really really good ones,

881
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 1: and so I don't know. I just feel like those

882
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: those young ones that that really like speak to my heart.

883
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 1: I just like want to help them, but like, you know,

884
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 1: kind of help them and kind of gill any advice

885
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: they want or write with them or who.

886
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 3: Did that for you? Oh gosh, who comes to mind?

887
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:29,879
Speaker 3: Who's the first?

888
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean the first person I thought of was Karen. Yeah,

889
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: just like somebody that's fair child, just like always been there,

890
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 1: always if you. But there's also more. I mean I

891
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,879
Speaker 1: remember when I was pregnant. I was gaining so much weight,

892
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, and it was a new thing. And

893
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 1: I would text Jennifer Nettles, you know, just does your

894
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,360
Speaker 1: body go back? I don't feel, you know. Or I

895
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 1: would text Karen, or I would text I don't know.

896
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: It's just like I feel like there's a lot of

897
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: them in country music. Miranda always but that's always like

898
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 1: my sister.

899
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, not as motherly more now more a tough love,

900
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 2: I guess someone else. I had Laura Watkins come out

901
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,239
Speaker 2: and play with us, yes, at the Rhyman and in

902
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 2: a different way. Lauren's like really nice but also does

903
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 2: not give a f It's like the best mix.

904
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

905
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 1: I love. It's confidence too, you know. It's like confidence

906
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: and what they want to say, a very clear vision.

907
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: You know, they're not going to let anybody tell them

908
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: what they want to say or what they want to

909
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: sound like. And I respect that.

910
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 2: I feel too that now in because there are definitely

911
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 2: some drawbacks to social media creating artists, but I think

912
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 2: one of the positives of it is a lot of

913
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 2: artists are who they are before an entity gets ahold

914
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 2: of them, and it's harder to change somebody once they

915
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 2: already have established who they are.

916
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 3: We're ten years ago, you go are so we'll to

917
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 3: sign you.

918
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 2: We're going to we're going to modify some things until

919
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 2: you and have you do this, and you'd be like,

920
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 2: all right, But now I think one of the positives

921
00:39:58,600 --> 00:39:59,919
Speaker 2: is you can kind of create your idea.

922
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if they want you, they sign you, they

923
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 3: really can't change a lot.

924
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, and I think.

925
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 2: That people who have benefited from that. I think Lauren's

926
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 2: a big beneficiary.

927
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 1: Yea right, Yeah, Lauren. That is who she is. I mean,

928
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: Lauren Watkins is and I love her too. I have

929
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,280
Speaker 1: I guess two songs on her new record, I Pretend

930
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: You're Coming Home and Gallinburg we co wrote. But yeah,

931
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: I mean that's who she is. She's just that's how

932
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: she dresses, that's what she sounds like. That's she's got

933
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: amazing ideas. She's a great songwriter, confident in how she

934
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: wants them to sound. I mean, yeah, it's less work

935
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 1: for labels.

936
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 3: I guess what about Miranda? Do you guys? Are you

937
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 3: guys working together writing at all?

938
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: We write kind of all. I mean anytimes she's home

939
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: and in the writing zone, we write. We wrote with

940
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 1: Stephen Wilson Junior. Was that January? I guess it was

941
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: the last time we wrote. We always have a you know,

942
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 1: a text seat of a shared note. We have Miranda

943
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,359
Speaker 1: Nash ideas, Annie's ideas, and it's the collaborate So it's.

944
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 3: Like we're always Would you guys ever do a duet

945
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:02,840
Speaker 3: record together?

946
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 1: That'd be Franda?

947
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 3: Yeah? Or would that or would that be like the

948
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,879
Speaker 3: Annie's but missing without Ange? Oh? Yeah, that's true.

949
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. Angelina and I were talking once about

950
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: because we've written with Guy Clark a lot. It was

951
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: one of our you know, one of the best writers ever,

952
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: Like if we did a record of the songs that

953
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: we'd written with Guy, you know. So I don't think

954
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: there are any rules when you support the person.

955
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and again again, far less rules now that there's

956
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 2: an infinite amount of space to put music, yeah right,

957
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 2: not make music that still costs money, yeah right, but

958
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 2: you know, to you can.

959
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 3: Put as many songs as you want. Has your.

960
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 2: Philosophy strategy. It all changed about putting music out because

961
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 2: it used to be only do this here, do that there?

962
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 2: Or is it now just if you got it and

963
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 2: it feels good let's go.

964
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I like to have a little bit

965
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 1: of the game plan, but there's really no predicting what's

966
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: gonna I mean. Also, thanks for playing risen Road on

967
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: your show and Amy play it on hers. I mean,

968
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: that's a big deal of me. I don't have a

969
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 1: label right now. I don't have I'm funding all this myself,

970
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: which is fine. I like that, but you know it,

971
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 1: you can't really predict what's gonna stick and what's gonna not.

972
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: You can have a plan of like whatever, but yeah,

973
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: I like the blind faith. If it feels right and

974
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: the team that you have agrees, let's just see what happens.

975
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 3: Do you remember your first time to Nashville when you

976
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 3: were a kid.

977
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 1: First summer in Nashville was I sang at the Tennessee

978
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 1: Fairest of the Fair competition. I wasn't in it. I

979
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:33,240
Speaker 1: was the entertainment.

980
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:34,839
Speaker 3: Well, you came here to sing for the first time,

981
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 3: So you actually came to Nashville to sing.

982
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was the only time my dad came to

983
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: Nashville with us.

984
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:39,240
Speaker 3: How old is alive?

985
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: I was ten or eleven, I think, and so so

986
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 1: then that was that, and then after that my dad

987
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: died when I was thirteen. My mom and I started

988
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: coming here soon after that. We rent like limos when

989
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: you got here, yeah, and like party really looking back,

990
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: but also she was trying to get me discovered. Which

991
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 1: we'd go to Broadway. That was when Broadway was way different.

992
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't shady, it was just not I guess it was.

993
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 3: It was just chill. I guess it wasn't. Yeah, there

994
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 3: wasn't an Apple store you're saying there on Broadway, you know.

995
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 1: And I would just go in and be like I

996
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: would just walk up to the band and go do

997
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: you know when will I be loved e? Rocky Top

998
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 1: you see, and be like can you sing? I'm like yeah,

999
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I don't think that anybody would even

1000
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 1: let anybody up now it's so.

1001
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 3: But you're a kid though, doing that right?

1002
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1003
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: I was like four fourteen when I started doing that.

1004
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, did you ever have to do that here? Like

1005
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:45,840
Speaker 3: play at a bar for a while?

1006
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: No, not for not for long. I just kind of

1007
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: I was just laughing because I don't know how good

1008
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: I would be. I love slow songs so much. I

1009
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,319
Speaker 1: don't think I could rock for three hours. That's hard.

1010
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 1: Those people that go dow there and sing for three hours.

1011
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 1: But I would get up and just do like rocky

1012
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,760
Speaker 1: talk you see at Totsies. And actually that's how somebody

1013
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:13,440
Speaker 1: ended up hearing me, and words started getting around randomly.

1014
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 3: Because you had sing Rocky Top.

1015
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, the Bobby Cast will be right back. This is

1016
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 5: the Bobby Cast.

1017
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 3: What kind of kid were you at fourteen fifteen?

1018
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: I was mature, I had lost my dad, my mom

1019
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,840
Speaker 1: had went a little wild. So I was trying to

1020
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: like wrangle a little bit. And I told my mom

1021
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:48,879
Speaker 1: if she moved to Nashville from Knoxville, that we'd figure

1022
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 1: it out. You know, I'd make it. And so it's

1023
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 1: kind of a little hustler looking back. I mean, I

1024
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 1: was like, I will figure out a way.

1025
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 3: Does that make you proud of yourself?

1026
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really does, especially now that I have a

1027
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: child and you look back at how young you know,

1028
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:08,479
Speaker 1: when you go through these traumas, it's kind of like, wow,

1029
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,839
Speaker 1: that's I wouldn't think I could or would be brave

1030
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: enough to even go ask somebody, hey can I sing?

1031
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 1: I would be too embarrassed or nervous or whatever even now,

1032
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 1: So what would.

1033
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 3: You tell that that fourteen year old. If I do

1034
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 3: this kind of crap in therapy, I do it all

1035
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 3: the time. But we like that that artist. Fourteen year old.

1036
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I would say your dreams come true.

1037
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: I found a letter, well, it was a prayer. It

1038
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: was a few years back, and I had written it

1039
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: on on a piece of notebook paper and it fell

1040
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: down from my mom's one of her closets a few

1041
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,359
Speaker 1: years back. And we've moved so many times since I've

1042
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:54,439
Speaker 1: written this prayer. It was in two thousand and two,

1043
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 1: so I was fourteen, and it was before I moved

1044
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: to Nashville. And it says, Dear Lord, you have blessed

1045
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: me and every possible. Your mighty hand has guided me

1046
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 1: everywhere I've ever been and everywhere I'm going. Please, I

1047
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 1: want to do this, you know. I have it on

1048
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,840
Speaker 1: my phone, but it's saying I love music more than anything.

1049
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: I know you're the only one that can give me

1050
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:18,399
Speaker 1: the chance. I promise I'll let your light shine through

1051
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 1: every note I sing because you live inside of me.

1052
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,600
Speaker 1: How could it not. I mean, just for fourteen year old,

1053
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 1: and at that point I was my mom was gone. Actually,

1054
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 1: my mom had kind of ran off for a while,

1055
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 1: so When I wrote that letter, I was fourteen, had

1056
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,880
Speaker 1: lost my dad. I was living with my brother, who

1057
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 1: was eighteen. Anyway, I don't even remember writing that letter,

1058
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: but when I read it now, I tear up every

1059
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: time because I thought, oh my gosh, my dreams have

1060
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 1: come true. This is all I ever wanted to do.

1061
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 1: And you know, you can get hung up on oh yeah,

1062
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: but you know, if you're not selling out stadium, it's

1063
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 1: not success. But all I ever wanted to do is

1064
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 1: be on the opry. And I also get to have

1065
00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,880
Speaker 1: songwriting and so many more part of that dream that

1066
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: I didn't even kind of foresee at that age. So

1067
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 1: it's it's funny how when you look back, I'm so

1068
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,359
Speaker 1: glad I have that because it reminds me that that's

1069
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 1: a prairie answered like hardcore.

1070
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 3: And you still have it. You saved it.

1071
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I still have a letter.

1072
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 2: The new single is out now Hot Rob pipe Dream

00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: per se, but they make you feel.

1093
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 3: Like you do. I guess, what's your instrument of choice

1094
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:13,160
Speaker 3: to write on?

1095
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:21,960
Speaker 1: I switch it up? I mean I like I like piano. Recently,

1096
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:25,240
Speaker 1: I used to play classical piano, and I can find

1097
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 1: different configurations that way. I do clear carry around a

1098
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 1: classical guitar because I think that always makes it sound

1099
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: more what's that like, nylon string?

1100
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 3: Got it? Yep?

1101
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 1: Makes it sound more like romantic willyish. I get kind

1102
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,839
Speaker 1: of bored with the acoustic guitar sometimes, just like, oh,

1103
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 1: I've already played a g I've already just sounds like

1104
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:49,320
Speaker 1: so I kind of am ended up writing on different instruments.

1105
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 3: Just a couple more.

1106
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 2: But I'm just curious about because you were singing, But

1107
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,359
Speaker 2: when did you start playing music? Where did that come from?

1108
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,320
Speaker 2: Who said here's an instrument? Who kind of allowed that?

1109
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: That was always me? I just I felt it, oh

1110
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 1: so early on in my soul.

1111
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 3: And mom or dad didn't play music.

1112
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: You know, my dad played secretly. He was an electrician.

1113
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 1: It was his work, and he would practice piano, but

1114
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 1: he didn't want anybody to listen. He would like and

1115
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 1: he could play by ear. And then my papa, my

1116
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 1: dad's dad. His first cousin is Carl Smith, who's in

1117
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: the country'sic call Fame, Carling Carter's dad. And I'm from Maynonville, Tennessee.

1118
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 1: So there's like some Roy Acuff, you know, maynardal people.

1119
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,160

1120
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: like it's kind of in my blood for sure, through Carlsmith,

1121
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: you know, on that on my dad's side. But I

1122
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,439
Speaker 1: don't know, I just always knew it. I always felt

1123
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 1: it so deep, and it's the only job I've ever had.
