Speaker 1: Hello, Welcome to the Sunday Sampler. Clips from some of
Speaker 1: the podcasts, for example, The Bobby Cast and Sore Losers,
Speaker 1: Movie Mike's Movie Podcast, and Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
Speaker 1: This week, Movie Mike Aga and his wife Kelsey shared
Speaker 1: their best and worst movie experiences to recap the month
Speaker 1: of April. Get Real with Caroline Hobby she talked to
Speaker 1: artist Lily Rose. This week on the Bobbycast, I sat
Speaker 1: down with Granger Smith for a super vulnerable conversation about
Speaker 1: life after losing his young son. He shares what he
Speaker 1: learned from tragedy and why he wanted to do ministry.
Speaker 1: He even wrote a book about it. So here's the clip.
Speaker 1: Let's get started. Here is a bit from this week's
Speaker 1: Bobbycast with Granger Smith. When you speak, to speak or
Speaker 1: your church, you appreach it, whatever, how are you defining?
Speaker 1: Do you do sermons? Would you go yours a sermon?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: It's mixed, like sometimes it's a church like literally this
Speaker 3: this coming Sunday as a sermon, Okay, Sunday morning, But
Speaker 3: it's not always. Sometimes it's a youth conference or whatever.
Speaker 1: When you speak and you leave that, what is that
Speaker 1: feeling like? Because you have it set across from them
Speaker 1: and got their specific nuance needs a reaction, but you
Speaker 1: still just went and took your message in your feelings
Speaker 1: and were vulnerable and shared to people who are needing
Speaker 1: and wanting. That described the two. The difference between the two.
Speaker 3: Similar to concerts music. I could walk off from the
Speaker 3: message and and think, man, I don't know if I
Speaker 3: don't know if I did hit. I don't know if
Speaker 3: that mattered at all. I think that might have been horrible.
Speaker 3: And then there's other times I walk off and go
Speaker 3: I think I nailed it. I think I nailed that.
Speaker 3: It's interesting that it's I get the same type of feeling,
Speaker 3: but I do know that the sword is sharper with
Speaker 3: the message that I'm giving now as opposed to just
Speaker 3: a a more generic I'm just going to play a
Speaker 3: concert and make you smile.
Speaker 4: Which is great, it's great.
Speaker 3: I always thought of myself as being able to make
Speaker 3: people take an emotional journey three minutes at a time. Yeah,
Speaker 3: But what I know now is where the goal is
Speaker 3: to really affect people on an intimate level, so that
Speaker 3: if they are hurting past the point of I don't
Speaker 3: even want to live anymore, then this could affect that
Speaker 3: person in a positive way.
Speaker 1: And I think all are needed, and I think one's
Speaker 1: more important than the other. And I don't think you're
Speaker 1: even saying that.
Speaker 3: I'm saying, I'm not You're right, And I.
Speaker 1: Don't want to be a misconstrue what you're saying, because
Speaker 1: I don't believe that your message and most people will
Speaker 1: hear that. But I think all are needed, and sometimes
Speaker 1: to be better at being able to have empathy or
Speaker 1: understanding that comes with extreme difficulty. Like any of the
Speaker 1: empathetic skills that I have, any of the understanding that
Speaker 1: I have that I can help with, has always come through.
Speaker 1: It's really crappy stuff happening, and even with you, like
Speaker 1: a River the book and your tattoo says River.
Speaker 2: And you know.
Speaker 1: Your son and how that tragically changed your life and
Speaker 1: your whole family's life, And you would never wish that
Speaker 1: on anyone. The tools and the skills and the empathy
Speaker 1: that you gained from that, that you could go back,
Speaker 1: you'd never want to have to gain those if you
Speaker 1: were to ask, No way, you don't want to gain that.
Speaker 1: You don'tt it's terribly tragic. But what it seems to
Speaker 1: me again from ten thousand feet up. You've taken those
Speaker 1: that skill set, and now you're using it specifically the
Speaker 1: guy you met with for coffee.
Speaker 3: You know what I told that guy in the brief
Speaker 3: time the twenty minutes. I told you that I was
Speaker 3: going to say only a few things that would matter.
Speaker 3: And I told him something that's only been a recent
Speaker 3: thought in my mind that I've worked through just recently.
Speaker 3: And I've never said this in a public setting, and
Speaker 3: I haven't fully unpacked it yet. But the truth is this,
Speaker 3: if I faced God today and he said, I give
Speaker 3: you river back, I give you your old life back,
Speaker 3: but you don't get anything that you've gained from that
Speaker 3: to this day forward, right, you don't get any of that.
Speaker 3: You just get river and your old life. I would
Speaker 3: say no, I'd say I can't. I can't go back there,
Speaker 3: even to have river back, because I was broken so
Speaker 3: much that the new growth that came from that death
Speaker 3: really from me. I'm not even I'm not I'm talking
Speaker 3: about just me. I'm a new, different person, and I
Speaker 3: can't go back into that old self again because I
Speaker 3: just see things differently.
Speaker 5: Now we're gonna do it live.
Speaker 6: Oh, the one shoot three Sore Losers.
Speaker 5: What up, everybody. I am lunchbox. I know the most
Speaker 5: about sports. I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions,
Speaker 5: because I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all.
Speaker 6: It's Sison. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.
Speaker 6: I live on the north side of Nashville with Bayser,
Speaker 6: my wife.
Speaker 5: We do have a farm.
Speaker 6: It's beautiful, a lot of acreage, no animals, a lot
Speaker 6: of crops. Hopefully soon corn pumpkins, rye. I believe maybe
Speaker 6: a little fescue to be determined. Over to you, coach.
Speaker 5: And here's a clip from this week's episode of The
Speaker 5: Sore Losers.
Speaker 6: Garts Just open, dude. They got dude bouncers. I'm like,
Speaker 6: where did these guys come from?
Speaker 5: Where did they hire them from another bar? No, they're
Speaker 5: all just new to the scene. They graduated just boom,
Speaker 5: moved to Nashville. Boom, I'm a bouncer.
Speaker 7: Boom.
Speaker 5: Here we go.
Speaker 6: That's the one thing you meet in capitalize on. We
Speaker 6: should have probably picked up a bar shift.
Speaker 5: I would have liked to try bartending when I was
Speaker 5: in my early twenties, and it would have been fun
Speaker 5: for probably about a month. You wouldn't have been annoying
Speaker 5: as hell, and I'd have been hammered.
Speaker 6: You'd behind the bar, you'd been good at it, You'd
Speaker 6: have been damn good at it.
Speaker 5: Because I feel like, oh, they always want to buy
Speaker 5: the bartender a shot, and I feel like, I'm yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: but but they allowed them to do a stow it
Speaker 5: over their shoulder or pour it out before they do it.
Speaker 5: But I would have loved to try bartending. It'd have
Speaker 5: been so fun. Yeah now, no, thank you, I'm too old.
Speaker 6: I could still do it at Gars.
Speaker 5: Now I'm too old. I don't think it'd be fun anymore.
Speaker 5: I'd be so annoyed with all the drunk ass people.
Speaker 6: But you know what, I can hook up, which I'll
Speaker 6: need to talk to the Garths team where you would
Speaker 6: be a celebrity appearance and you would serve for just
Speaker 6: one night. That could work and I can be the guy.
Speaker 6: I'll be handing you drinks. I'm like your side show.
Speaker 5: I like it, yeah, and then hear my bar back. Also,
Speaker 5: you're the one that cleans the glasses, dips them in
Speaker 5: the water, and when somebody wants to shot gun a beer,
Speaker 5: that's when I come in. Because you didn't want to
Speaker 5: drink while you're doing it. That's right. Now, I'm gonna
Speaker 5: tell you a story. I was talking to one of
Speaker 5: the dads the other day and his daughter is in
Speaker 5: my five year old's class.
Speaker 6: It wasn't Jerry, was it.
Speaker 5: No Jerry. I haven't seen Jerry, but my kid. We
Speaker 5: haven't seen Jerry's daughter in three years. And my son
Speaker 5: has a postcard from when we went to Colorado last summer.
Speaker 5: He found it yesterday in a book and he goes, data,
Speaker 5: I'm going to mail this to her. I'm like, dude,
Speaker 5: you I've told you she doesn't like you.
Speaker 6: I've told you your dad doesn't have thirty two cents.
Speaker 5: So he was telling me that he went to school
Speaker 5: at Knoxville. He was called UT the University of Tennessee. No,
Speaker 5: I don't know what it's not called UT. UT is Texas.
Speaker 5: I heard you went to a school called Augusta. No,
Speaker 5: that's Alabama. Okay, No, that's Tuscaloosa. Anyway, So he went
Speaker 5: to the University of Tennessee, right, And he was a
Speaker 5: bouncer at a bar, dope, and he said they were
Speaker 5: having a football program gathering there one night and Peyton
Speaker 5: Manning walks up and he starts asking everybody for idea
Speaker 5: id's and Peyton's like, oh, I didn't bring my ID,
Speaker 5: and he goes, no, ID can't get in, and he goes,
Speaker 5: but ah, we're here with the football team, you know,
Speaker 5: And he's like, sorry, man, no ID can't get in.
Speaker 6: Pull me up on the NFL website.
Speaker 5: Well he's still in college at the time. And the
Speaker 5: guy looks at the dad and get dad, I know,
Speaker 5: and he goes, uh, do you know who I am?
Speaker 5: He goes, do you know who I am? I'm the bouncer.
Speaker 5: He goes, I'm Peyton Manning, Dude, I play quarterback for
Speaker 5: the University of Tennessee. He goes, yeah, and I'm Ben
Speaker 5: and I bounced people out of this bar.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 5: You guys get a dick of steel. And he's just like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: but I didn't bring my ID, and he goes, you
Speaker 5: really don't know who I am. He goes, no, I
Speaker 5: know who you are. Well, that don't mean I'm letting
Speaker 5: you in my bar, and Peyton May was like, it's
Speaker 5: not your bar. Oh damn, it goes I'm just with you.
Speaker 4: Go on here, man, hey, it's Mike d and this
Speaker 4: week our Movie Mike's Movie podcast, my wife Kelsey and
Speaker 4: I shared our best and worst movies that we've seen
Speaker 4: in the last month. We do it every single month
Speaker 4: to recap things that you should check out in theaters,
Speaker 4: wait till they go on streaming, or just avoid altogether.
Speaker 4: I also gave my thoughts on The Fall Guy with
Speaker 4: Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt always giving you spoiler free
Speaker 4: movie reviews. So here's just a little bit of our
Speaker 4: best and worst, but be sure to check out this
Speaker 4: full episode of Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. What was the
Speaker 4: best movie in your opinion?
Speaker 8: From April Easy Challengers? I love Zundia. I thought it
Speaker 8: it was so well done. The casting was perfect. I
Speaker 8: liked the going back and forth in time. The cinematography
Speaker 8: was great, like some of the shots where you like,
Speaker 8: feel like you are the tennis ball, like I just thought, overall,
Speaker 8: it was an extremely well done movie.
Speaker 4: And overall it was one that evoked a lot of
Speaker 4: emotion in the audience. In our theater, there was a
Speaker 4: lot of reactions during several different parts.
Speaker 8: One girl leaned over to her friend I could hear,
Speaker 8: and she goes, what is this movie?
Speaker 4: It's one of those movies, and I was talking about
Speaker 4: in my review of it that I was surprised by
Speaker 4: not the level of nudity that it had, but the
Speaker 4: level of male nudity.
Speaker 8: Watching HBO, which is yeah. I was like, I don't,
Speaker 8: We're watching euphoria.
Speaker 4: We're used to seeing That's true, We're used to seeing
Speaker 4: that at home more than we are in theater. Was
Speaker 4: that jarring to you to see the male wiener and
Speaker 4: the male butt in a public setting?
Speaker 8: No, because one time I took my grandma to a
Speaker 8: movie and there was male nudity and I felt so bad.
Speaker 8: If you can just imagine me me being like.
Speaker 4: Oh, it's just so much more assaulting, like female nudity
Speaker 4: in a movie we don't really notice, which there's not really.
Speaker 8: No, that's not true because in Oppenheimer, all anyone could
Speaker 8: talk about was always saw Florence Pews boobs.
Speaker 4: We also saw that in seventy millimeter Imax, so it
Speaker 4: was the entire screen was just their boobs.
Speaker 8: People are always talking about female nudity, they're always talking
Speaker 8: about should I go back to my free the nipple tangent, But.
Speaker 4: It's not as surprising when you see a wiener on screen.
Speaker 4: It's like, WHOA, don't.
Speaker 8: Take serious right now saying that what weed? Yes, but
Speaker 8: also like, this isn't a spoiler. It's in a locker
Speaker 8: room context, like you kind of. It wasn't like you
Speaker 8: was just like whipping it out right.
Speaker 4: It was a comedy thing.
Speaker 8: It was a locker room where you're like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 8: like men are taking a.
Speaker 4: Shower, and there it is.
Speaker 8: We've just watched so much HBO in New Storia that
Speaker 8: at this point I'm just like, there's another one.
Speaker 4: Like I wasn't as shocked by it, but just seeing
Speaker 4: other people react to it, I thought one that movies
Speaker 4: have kind of got away from having nudity in movies.
Speaker 4: The R rating keeps some people away from seeing it,
Speaker 4: and some people are still aren't fully comfortable with nudity.
Speaker 4: So just to see it on a movie of this
Speaker 4: scale commit to it, I was like, oh, yeah, some
Speaker 4: people aren't going to like this.
Speaker 8: Listen. I was more offended visually shocked when they caught
Speaker 8: off her head at the start of Napoleon.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the movie's very brutal, not a spoiler. It happens
Speaker 4: pretty soon in the movie like that.
Speaker 8: To me, it was like cover my eyes.
Speaker 4: That movie as a whole had some pretty brutal violence,
Speaker 4: not only to humans but also to animals.
Speaker 8: But this I was like, whatever, Yeah, I loved it.
Speaker 4: I still I stand by my four point five at
Speaker 4: a five rating. What would you give it?
Speaker 8: You have it a five oh five. It kicked off
Speaker 8: the summer blockbusters.
Speaker 4: I feel like April as a whole was a really
Speaker 4: solid month. It was there were so many great movies.
Speaker 4: For me, my best I think I'm still a little
Speaker 4: bit too close to Challengers. I have a little recency
Speaker 4: bias that I feel like saying that was my favorite
Speaker 4: overall would be too soon to say that, although I
Speaker 4: do have it on my list of potential best movies
Speaker 4: of the year, like I already put it on that
Speaker 4: list because I think it was that good. But for me,
Speaker 4: I'm going to go best to Still Civil War because
Speaker 4: it is the movie I've seen this month and have
Speaker 4: continued to think about and go back to, and it's
Speaker 4: one that right now I immediately want to go back
Speaker 4: and rewatch it. Rarely do I go back and rewatch
Speaker 4: a movie in theaters, just because we already go once
Speaker 4: a week. It's hard to go back and revisit a
Speaker 4: movie time while it's still in theaters because there's always
Speaker 4: something new coming out that I need to go see,
Speaker 4: but this is one that I can't wait until it
Speaker 4: goes on to streaming, which it'll probably still be another
Speaker 4: thirty forty five days. But I need to see it
Speaker 4: again because I was expecting something different when we first
Speaker 4: went to go see it, and now knowing what it is,
Speaker 4: I think I will be able to enjoy it even
Speaker 4: more and it could move up from the four out
Speaker 4: of five that I gave it to a five, because
Speaker 4: I do think it's that good, it has that much potential.
Speaker 4: But in my head, I thought it was going to
Speaker 4: be more about the actual Second Civil War going on
Speaker 4: and more about the backstory, and what it really was
Speaker 4: was about photojournalism and the implications that come along with
Speaker 4: taking photographs of really awful things.
Speaker 8: Well, this is a great Seguay because I loved it,
Speaker 8: but I'm going to give it my least favorite of
Speaker 8: the month really because it wasn't what I was expecting
Speaker 8: and I was so physically stressed during the whole thing.
Speaker 8: It reminded me of how stressed I felt during Joker,
Speaker 8: Like at one point, I like scrunched down in my
Speaker 8: seat and hid behind the guy in front of me
Speaker 8: his head because I just needed like a little break
Speaker 8: from what was on the screen least favorite, not because
Speaker 8: I didn't like it, but because my blood pressure was elevated.
Speaker 4: I think that's where we differ in I like stressful movies.
Speaker 8: You love a stressful I like.
Speaker 4: Movies that at times will literally keep me on the
Speaker 4: edge of my seat.
Speaker 8: Which is shocking because you're already a high stressed person, Like,
Speaker 8: why do you want to be further stressed. I think it's.
Speaker 4: Because I like movies that evoke an emotion in me.
Speaker 4: To be able just to sit there in a room
Speaker 4: and watch something that'll get my heart rate up. That's
Speaker 4: a powerful thing. So I like feeling that. So that's
Speaker 4: why I like horror movies. That's why I like really
Speaker 4: intense thrillers. The way Civil War did that was with
Speaker 4: really loud sound effects, which was by design of these
Speaker 4: very visceral sounding gunshots and rumbles that while you're watching it,
Speaker 4: when you're not expecting it just boom. And that also
Speaker 4: adds to the level of anxiety that the characters are
Speaker 4: going through. So the director Alex Garland was able to
Speaker 4: also make you feel that stress as well, so I
Speaker 4: find that to be powerful. But I could see if
Speaker 4: you don't like those situations, how you would not have
Speaker 4: a good time watching that movie, especially in theaters. I
Speaker 4: think it would be different watching it at home because
Speaker 4: it's not as loud, it's not as much you're engulfed
Speaker 4: in it. So I wonder if people would still be
Speaker 4: as stress watching that movie at home.
Speaker 8: It was one of those where I felt so stressed.
Speaker 8: I didn't even want my movie snacks. I mean almost
Speaker 8: that's my favorite part of a movie.
Speaker 4: You gotta have your snack.
Speaker 8: Couldn't eat it.
Speaker 4: So that's your worst, my worst.
Speaker 8: Favorite, your worst.
Speaker 9: Okay, it wasn't a bad movie, true least favorite for
Speaker 9: my least favorite, But I'm gonna say worst is Rebel
Speaker 9: Moon Part two, The Scargiver.
Speaker 8: I didn't even realize that was out. When did you
Speaker 8: watch that?
Speaker 4: I watched it last weekend. But here's the thing. I
Speaker 4: didn't finish it, so it's not a movie I will
Speaker 4: give my full review treatment too, but I decided to
Speaker 4: include it here because it was so bad. Now, the
Speaker 4: first one came out and I was able to stomach it.
Speaker 4: It's Zack Snyder and it's almost him trying to do
Speaker 4: his own version of Star Wars. The first one was
Speaker 4: all over the place.
Speaker 8: I watched like fifteen minutes of it with you, and
Speaker 8: I was like, what is this.
Speaker 4: It's a lot of slow motion action shots, but some
Speaker 4: of it actually looked pretty cool, and the story moved
Speaker 4: along enough to make me complete that movie. But he
Speaker 4: filmed these two movies together, put out Part one last
Speaker 4: year and put out Part two this year. They're both
Speaker 4: about two hours, so dude can't make a project under
Speaker 4: four hours, apparently, And this one was so bad within
Speaker 4: the first fifteen minutes I could not finish it, so
Speaker 4: I kept going. I probably watched forty five minutes of
Speaker 4: the movie before deciding there's no point in me finishing
Speaker 4: this movie. The story didn't make sense. It was those
Speaker 4: same visual things in the first one that were so
Speaker 4: repetitive and so overused. I just feel like streaming movies
Speaker 4: have really taken a dip in the last two years,
Speaker 4: and it comes to creating the same level of quality
Speaker 4: that you can go see in theaters.
Speaker 2: A Carol n She's a queen of talking and a song.
Speaker 2: She's getting really not afraid to feel episode and soul,
Speaker 2: just let it flow. No one can do. We quiet
Speaker 2: carry Lyne his son from Caroline.
Speaker 10: Hey, y'all, it's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
Speaker 10: And here is a clip from this week's episode.
Speaker 11: When it comes to, you know, choosing a genre, I
Speaker 11: always knew that I wanted to write country music. But
Speaker 11: I was so inspired by so many different artists, you know,
Speaker 11: Bruce Fringsteening to Katie Perry to Taylor Swift to Ed
Speaker 11: Sheeran to Sam Hunt. So it's just so really eclectic.
Speaker 11: And I was like, I'm just gonna keep writing songs.
Speaker 11: And and once I started co writing here in town
Speaker 11: is when I was like, these are my favorite songs
Speaker 11: I've ever written for myself.
Speaker 8: And it was country music.
Speaker 7: So you know, got to meet.
Speaker 10: Okay, so you came to Nashville, but you weren't You
Speaker 10: hadn't done a whole lot of country music writing yet, Nope,
Speaker 10: So how did you know that you needed to come
Speaker 10: here and not like La or you know, New York
Speaker 10: or I don't even know where else people go.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I definitely thought that it was going to be
Speaker 11: like a either all La or split my time LA
Speaker 11: in Nashville, just because I didn't know if I wanted
Speaker 11: to be in country until Sam Hunt put that Between
Speaker 11: the Pines mixtape on SoundCloud and I heard that and
Speaker 11: I was like, that's country music and it includes all
Speaker 11: the elements that I won my music, such ass from Atlanta,
Speaker 11: so like the trap beats, I love rap, all of
Speaker 11: the at o' eights and the synth bass and just
Speaker 11: it wasn't you know, at the time, it was Cruise, Kiss, Tomorrow, Goodbye,
Speaker 11: just broke country that I was obsessed with, but it
Speaker 11: didn't I didn't see myself in that music. And when
Speaker 11: Sam came on the scene, I saw myself in country
Speaker 11: music and real storytelling. Yeah, the storytelling and just the
Speaker 11: production and all of it. So I was like, kellyeah,
Speaker 11: I'm moving to Nashville.
Speaker 10: And so Sam Hunt was kind of the catalyst. He was, Yeah,
Speaker 10: and now look at you being on tour with him.
Speaker 10: How did that even happen? I mean, I just love
Speaker 10: it when people's dreams come true, like when you have
Speaker 10: a full circle thing and I want to talk about
Speaker 10: how you rose to fame because it was like overnight,
Speaker 10: You're one of those, Like overnight, I can't even imagine
Speaker 10: what that's like. Yeah, when it's literally overnight you went viral.
Speaker 7: It was crazy. But what is it like loving Sam Hunt?
Speaker 10: He's your inspiration for realizing that you can fit into
Speaker 10: the genre musically, and now you're touring with him?
Speaker 7: Did He was it everything you hope? Sometimes people say.
Speaker 10: Don't meet the people that you like look up to
Speaker 10: because it might be a letdown, but also it can
Speaker 10: be great. How was that whole full circle moment meeting
Speaker 10: him and touring with him and getting to be in
Speaker 10: that energy field with him.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it was a really cool journey. Our first show
Speaker 11: we did together was like August seventh of twenty twenty two,
Speaker 11: and we just wrapped up with him this last weekend
Speaker 11: mid April.
Speaker 7: So twenty four years you've been touring with him, Yeah,
Speaker 7: over fifty shows. Y'all have hit it off so hard.
Speaker 7: Y'all just can't stop, won't.
Speaker 11: So Yeah, he just continues to give me a chance,
Speaker 11: and I'm so grateful for that. But he watching somebody
Speaker 11: in my life go from an icon then to a
Speaker 11: mentor to like a friend has just been a really
Speaker 11: cool thing. And I learned so much out on the
Speaker 11: road with him. Of his whole crew, they're just so kind.
Speaker 11: And it starts with Sam really and it trickles down
Speaker 11: to the band.
Speaker 7: And he's a great leader.
Speaker 11: Oh my gosh. He's just so nice to everybody really,
Speaker 11: and he's out and about. You know, you've been on
Speaker 11: just as many tours as I have and seen their
Speaker 11: headliners and other acts that they hole up in their
Speaker 11: bus or in their green room all day, and you
Speaker 11: go to catering at any moment Sam's in there, you
Speaker 11: go outside. He's playing with his daughter and throwing the
Speaker 11: football with his band. He's hanging out with us, and
Speaker 11: it was really cool to just see him be a
Speaker 11: human being.
Speaker 7: He's just living his actual life. Yeah, on the road.
Speaker 11: He is truly just a country boy that wants to
Speaker 11: sing songs every night. And it's, in my opinion, entertainer
Speaker 11: of the year level stuff, best arena production I've ever seen.
Speaker 7: What do you love about it?
Speaker 2: His songs?
Speaker 11: You know, they they incorporate so many of those hip hop,
Speaker 11: R and B elements that you know, I resonate with
Speaker 11: see myself in but I like to I go wild
Speaker 11: on stage, Like being on stage is my favorite thing
Speaker 11: in the entire world.
Speaker 10: Like Lily Rose is different from Lily Oh yeah, what's
Speaker 10: the little who is Lily Rose on stage.
Speaker 7: What is she doing?
Speaker 8: Oh, it's just energy.
Speaker 7: It's my favorite thing.
Speaker 11: If I had to choose between writing a song or
Speaker 11: being like playing a show, it's playing a show every time,
Speaker 11: and I just.
Speaker 5: I love it.
Speaker 11: I love interacting with the fans my band. It just
Speaker 11: feels like a very secure place for me and something
Speaker 11: I enjoy and and because of that, it's really cool
Speaker 11: to watch Sam's set, knowing his whole catalog the way
Speaker 11: I do, because there is an elevated element of It's
Speaker 11: even heavier on stage at the show, and there's just
Speaker 11: not a whole lot of dip and energy. And we're
Speaker 11: my band and I we just sat out there at
Speaker 11: front of house every now and just studied and I mean, yeah,
Speaker 11: I just took notes and enjoyed it. We're all such
Speaker 11: Sam fans that were like, we acted like it was
Speaker 11: our first time seeing him every night, you know, So
Speaker 11: it was it was a dream come true. And I'm
Speaker 11: a big, big believer in this job that there's a
Speaker 11: lot of uncertain deed, and I think in life there
Speaker 11: are things that make you want more, and there are
Speaker 11: things that make you say, if it all ended tomorrow,
Speaker 11: I'm okay, because I got to do that. And that's
Speaker 11: how I feel about being on tour with Sam, is
Speaker 11: that if it all went away tomorrow and I lost
Speaker 11: everything that has to do with my music career, I'm
Speaker 11: okay knowing that I went on tour with Sam.
Speaker 10: Hunt like a full dream come true, full dream come true.
Speaker 10: Does he know that it's a dream come true? Yeah?
Speaker 11: I tried not to be too sappy, and I wrote
Speaker 11: him a letter at the end of the tour and
Speaker 11: gave him a little box of cigars, But yeah, I had.
Speaker 7: I haven't really been able to process it yet.
Speaker 11: I haven't even made my end of tour posts, just
Speaker 11: because you never get to tour with your number one
Speaker 11: you're idol.
Speaker 7: And that's who you started with.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's just been truly a dream come true. And
Speaker 11: that's a huge, huge thanks to Sam and his management
Speaker 11: and both of our agents for making that happen, because like,
Speaker 11: I'd never never thought that would be a thing.
