1 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: Hey, everybody. So I was gonna answer some more questions 2 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: from you guys, and Eddie would just happen to be here. 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: It's actually storming outside, so I was like, Eddie, don't 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: have to leave because. 5 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 2: I'd get wet if I walked outside. And I appreciate 6 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 2: you looking. 7 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: Out and that's right. So we'll just kind of walk 8 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: through some of this together. Also, you can answer these 9 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: questions too. These are like Q and as for you, well, yeah, 10 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: I got on Instagram and I said, hey, ask questions, 11 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: and I screenshot all my favorite ones and so then 12 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: I just put them read them here. I don't write 13 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 1: them back on Instagram, which is kind of a douchebag move. 14 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: I should write them back on Instagram, but I save 15 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: them for this. Okay, number one because I have a 16 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: long answer for this. But what annoys you about the 17 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: music industry right now? 18 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 3: Wow? 19 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: Do you have anything? Because I can go. I can 20 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: have two big ones. First of all, it's the amount 21 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: that whiskey is used in every song. Oh, it's just 22 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: like a cliche at this point, do you put It's like, 23 00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: what do we want to do with a song? I 24 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: don't know. It's some about whiskey is such a cliche 25 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: at this point in country music. 26 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, other genres, they're not really doing a lot 27 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: of whiskey, are they. 28 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't listen to the genres. It's 29 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: under to dial in over here. To me, that's one 30 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: where it feels like it's kind of a throwaway or 31 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: you're chasing what's so down the middle because you know, 32 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: it's just universally accepted in country music. So that would 33 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: be one. Another one that I have is pretty, is 34 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: more personal. But do you have an answer to that? 35 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 3: I do? I do. 36 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 2: I don't like that there are they spit songs so 37 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: quickly at us and then they're just gone, Like I 38 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: kind of miss like the chance to have a song 39 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 2: be huge and you just sing it for the rest 40 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 2: of your life, like for me, you know, jump by 41 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: Van Halen, like boy, here we go. 42 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: You know, Papa's angry, you know what I'm saying, Like man, like, 43 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: I don't think the kids are gonna have that song, 44 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: like oh you remember that song because they listen to 45 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: so many and then they're just gone and then they 46 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: just give you new ones. I don't want to be 47 00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: that guy, but are you gonna make me be that 48 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: guy be that guy. So the difference in jump from 49 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: Van Halen or mister Jones from Accounting Crow the classics 50 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: or is that all of that was hard, meaning they 51 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: had to print things and ship things and put them 52 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: on shelves and you can only fit twelve on or 53 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: fourteen on a CD or a tape or a vinyl. Now, 54 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: with the ability to put out music digitally, there's no 55 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: limit on it. 56 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 3: It's spit it out real quick. 57 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: And it doesn't mean songs don't go away, they don't expire. 58 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: It's not like inspector Gadget where the message explodes after 59 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: twenty listens. 60 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: I know, but are we going to have another can't 61 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: stop believing. 62 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna have massive songs, but everything is fractured now, 63 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: so no, we won't because we're not gonna have another 64 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: mash either A TV show, Yeah, everybody watched because there 65 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: were four channels. So I can understand being our age 66 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: and going man, it's just not like it used to be. 67 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: But also the way that we consume music, the way 68 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: that music is gotten to us, is not the same. 69 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: I guess I just feel bad for the songs. Their 70 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: lifespan has just gotten a lot shorter. 71 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: I would also say they're written so much faster and 72 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: produce so much faster, and they're created so much quicker. 73 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: So I do understand that, but it is for that 74 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 1: reason poll. I think another thing, and this isn't isn't 75 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: about music as much, but something that annoyed me personally 76 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: was so we had a company that owned like five 77 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: or six stations that our show was syndicated on The 78 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: Bobby Bone Show. And so like a year or so ago, 79 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: it was Alpha Media. They were being bought by another company, 80 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: and we were on a bunch of big stations on 81 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: these Alpha Media companies. And so this other company bought 82 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: this company and the first thing they say is we're 83 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: taking them all local. And it's fine by me. I 84 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: don't own the company, and we were on some of 85 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: those stations, and obviously I knew our fate eventually would 86 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: be any of those stations that were on. Eventually they're 87 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: just going to hire local shows and they probably won't 88 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: perform as well, but they will probably there's a decent 89 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: chance that they could make at least the same or more. 90 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: Who knows, who knows if they can sell it great. 91 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: I have no problem local syndicated like it if it works, 92 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: that's great. So I didn't even find out until I 93 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: saw it online that we were like taking off in 94 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: Chicago that I saw it on an Instagram post. It 95 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: was on slipping through and it was like the Bybone 96 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: Show off in Chicago, this new company, and I was like, wait, 97 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: this is how I find out, like my company, D'm 98 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: it telling you? 99 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 2: That's crazy that they don't tell you or give you 100 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: it just a heads up, like, hey, in the next 101 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, this is going to happen. 102 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: Nothing I knew it was coming even a year prior 103 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: because that company does not do syndication. They bought though, 104 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: So I'm not personally offended by it. But I think 105 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: where I think where I was a little bothered was 106 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: nobody told me. I just freaking saw it flipping through 107 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: Instagram and there's a picture of me and he's like gone, 108 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: like gone, did what I've died? So, yeah, that was weird. 109 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: That's a hard way to find out. 110 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: And so then I would get all these messages from 111 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: people going like why are you aren't you on anymore? 112 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: And it's like you want the nature of the business, 113 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: or I just go, yeah, we're not, but you can 114 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 1: listen on podcasts. 115 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:24,799 Speaker 3: That's probably better. 116 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, but my annoyance is that nobody told me and 117 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: I saw it on Instagram, Mike, did you ever see 118 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: that any of that. 119 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: I've seen comments where people were like, hey, listen to 120 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 2: your station over here and it's a jazz music. 121 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh wow, okay. 122 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: Well, the nature of the Beast with like our radio 123 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: show is that we're on so many stations, probably over 124 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: two hundred, that there are changes all the time, stations 125 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: we go on that I don't even know we're on, 126 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: stations they pull us off of for different reasons too, 127 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: and so I don't know at this point, I don't know. 128 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: It'd be nice if they would tell me if like 129 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: we're going off of Chicago there going to do a 130 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 1: new story like a posts. I don't see myself dying 131 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: on Instagram as the first thing, so that would be 132 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: I think the thing that personally has annoyed me. But 133 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: that's not music industry. That's kind of just our industry, 134 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: our radio industry. I guess here's one. Have you ever 135 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: been sued? Here's an interesting thing just in the past. 136 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to say a date because I don't 137 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: want to put on an artist specifically. But I had 138 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: an artist that did this show call me and say, Hey, 139 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to be sued for coming on 140 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: your show. 141 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 3: WHOA, I don't think I know this story. 142 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: No nobody does. Who maybe Mike does. But even that 143 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: I didn't have a conversation. 144 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 3: With it for just being on the show. I want to. 145 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: Protect a person. And by the way, you can sue 146 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: for anything. You don't have to be right to sue. 147 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: You can just be a little but hurt. 148 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: That sucks because you have to protect yourself by hiring 149 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: an attorney, and it's gonna cost you money even though 150 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: you've done nothing wrong. 151 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: This artist that I did a full episode with called 152 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: me and said, I think I'm going to get sued. 153 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: Here is what happened. And I have no issue. Mike 154 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: has no issue with pulling any part of anything, even 155 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: a full episode. If something's gonna get somebody in trouble 156 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: and you're like, would you mind taking that down, We're 157 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: gonna do it because one we kind of care about 158 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: folks generally, and then two, with people in this town, 159 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: the relationships are never just a one and done, like 160 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: everybody's here and everybody stays here.

So of course I was like, I 164 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: will pull the episode, and they were like, you don't 165 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: have to do that, but I'm just warning you you 166 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: may also get sued. Whoa on This gets into another 167 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: thing accomplisam Mike? Can I add the other day? But 168 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: I said, I am not going to get sued. There's 169 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: nothing I said that was defamatory anyway, and if something 170 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: was inaccurate, it was presented as I'm not sure about 171 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: this and it was opinion based. 172 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 2: But was there a little chance in your head where 173 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: you're like, what, I still could get sued? 174 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: Well, I can get sued regardless. I knew if I 175 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: got sued. This is my mind here. If I got sued, 176 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't lose. And if I got sued, I was 177 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of press for it. 178 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 2: Oh okay, So that positive thinking. 179 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: Then well it's like, what's the benefit otherwise I just 180 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 1: I don't et siders pull it. We didn't pull the episode. 181 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: It still exists, it is up fully and the artist 182 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: never got sued. I think it was somebody just threatening 183 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: because they did not like what the artist was saying 184 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: in the episode. Wow, And I'll just leave it at 185 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: that because I don't want to point to it here 186 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: in this because I don't want anything bad to fall 187 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: onto them at this point. I'll tell you guys off 188 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: the air, Yeah, I want to know. But recently was 189 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: talking to Kane Brown. I don't know when you're going 190 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: to see this now, this is real recent and I'll 191 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: use Kine's name specifically because this is what happened. Kine 192 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: comes in and you'll see it in the interview if 193 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: it hasn't come out yet. Kin was talking about somebody 194 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: he worked with that basically stole, not stole, because he 195 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: knew I would say. I Cain felt like a deal 196 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: was unfairly manipulated and he lost about ten million bucks 197 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: to this person WHOA And he talked about it and 198 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: he said the person's name, and we did the interview 199 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 1: and he's like, leave it in. I don't give a crap. 200 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: He's pissed up on Mike and not communicating about some stuff. 201 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: We decided to bleep the guy's name. 202 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 2: Okay, so without before it even went up anywhere. You're 203 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: just like, it's probably. 204 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: Better And I don't know when people are watching this, 205 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: so it may already be up. But Kane did say 206 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: who it was. We decided to bleep it because I 207 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: didn't think me getting sued for that would get enough press. 208 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: It wouldn't be press. 209 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 3: Worthy, right. 210 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 2: I understand it's kind of a situation among them versus you. 211 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 3: You're just like, I'm just the podcast guy. 212 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and even if I were to get sued, like, 213 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: no one was going to care because that wasn't about 214 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: me that I didn't ask the question. I have a 215 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: comment about it. It was just Kane talking about it. So 216 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: I encourage you to check out that interview. It's not 217 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: up if it depending on when you see this. But Mike, 218 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: anything that I'm saying wrong about that story, that's how 219 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: it went down because we could have left it in 220 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: and we also wouldn't have been wrong because we didn't 221 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: say anything, but we decided just wasn't worth it to us. 222 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: And Kane was just telling the story about how he 223 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: signed a bad deal. He felt like he was tricked 224 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: into signing a bad deal and it cost him about 225 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: ten million dollars overall. 226 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 227 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: Follow up question on how you and Mike communicate though, 228 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 2: How does that go down? Like, is it Mike like, hey, 229 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: I was thinking of this, or you going, hey, Mike, 230 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 2: I need a second opinion on this. 231 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: Let's talk about it. 232 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: No, we had the interview. We were both kind of 233 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: blown Awaykane was talking about it so openly, and Cain said, 234 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: I've never talked about this. It happens Mike had a 235 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: conversation with somebody else close to us, and that somebody 236 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: else said, hey, you're good. You're not gonna like you 237 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: didn't do anything wrong. But this person is known to 238 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: be litigious. And again, a lawsuit itself for the sake 239 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: of a lawsuit's not going to threaten me because I 240 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: have the money to h lawyer and have lawyers. Did 241 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: de fight. It sucks to have to pay it, but 242 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: I'm not going to be bullied. But it was just 243 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: for it. Just didn't feel like it right, Mike, Yeah, 244 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: I didn't feel worth it. It just if it was 245 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: worth it, we had to run with it, and I'd 246 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: have just gone, let's do justice. It wasn't a justice thing. 247 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: It was Kine just kind of telling the story. He 248 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: was pissed. I don't feel like he was triggered. I 249 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: feel like he purposefully had thought it out and was 250 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: talking about it openly, not reacting but responding, which is 251 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: there's a big difference there. But yeah, we didn't put 252 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: it out, so almost got sued or was threatened to 253 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: be sued for one, we pulled the other for the 254 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: smart Yeah. And then there's another thing that happened recently 255 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: that I could not talk about at all recently. 256 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 3: You know, no one, no one. Yeah, I know that one. 257 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, super reason, I know that one. Yeah, that one 258 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: one day, one day. So the question to that is, yes, 259 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: we've been there's been lots of lawsuits. Let's do it, 260 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: and one day I may get suited and I may lose. 261 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: I hope not. 262 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 2: But just the sound of the word lawsuit or being sued, 263 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 2: it's just scary to me. Like I got sued one time, 264 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 2: but it was another Eddie Garcia. Yeah, as a cab 265 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: driver in New York, New York City, it's like. 266 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 3: A hidden run situation. 267 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: So you didn't get sued. 268 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but they came to me and serve me 269 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 2: papers on THEO. 270 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: You might get served, but you didn't get sued. It 271 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 1: was a big, big difference. 272 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 3: I was eighteen years old, and they're like, were you 273 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 3: in New York City? You're like, no, I've never been 274 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 3: out of this this state. 275 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: If you want to admit now it was you, dude, 276 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: that's prime. No, that's prime. Okay, uh, here's another one. 277 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: Any fallout from the Morgan Evans interview. Fallout is an 278 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: interesting way to describe it. So I would say fallout. No, 279 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: I said this before, so I give a quick recap. 280 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: I'm bias, you are I never said I wasn't bias. 281 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: Morgan Evans is my friend. So people are like, you 282 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: didn't approach that as a journalist with integrity, not a 283 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: journalist barely integrity. So and also I had said on 284 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: my Instagram story it is now gone that and Mike 285 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: can back me up on this too. And I don't 286 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: want to put this entity out. But we got an 287 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: email going, hey, do you want Morgan Evans on the 288 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: Bobby Cast? And I said I would have said yes anyway, 289 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: but maybe Morgan would have just texted me or email 290 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: my you know, it's a friend, buddy, And it said 291 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: it's the he wants to talk about his divorce for 292 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: the first time and he's never done it. He'll talk 293 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: about it, and then he just kind of wants this 294 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: to be the one time that he talks about it, 295 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: so he doesn't have to answer questions about it forever. 296 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: And so Mike and I were like, of course, like 297 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: we'd have morgan on anyway. I would have never gone 298 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: to the divorce the interview had it not been sent 299 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: to me. Hey, he wants to do this. While we 300 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: were doing the interview, I went to the question because 301 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: that's what they wanted, was what he wanted me to do. 302 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: I could feel like he didn't really want me. It's 303 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: not that he didn't want it, but he wasn't expecting it, 304 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: and I knew something was a little off, but he 305 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: was answering questions. He trusted me. We finished it and 306 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: we only talked. We probably talked five to seven minutes 307 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: about that divorce. Most of them mean eighty percent of 308 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: the interview wasn't that, And it wasn't how he started, 309 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: It wasn't how he ended. And hit him up and 310 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: I was like, hey, dude, you know I was going 311 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: to talk about the divorce, right and he was like, well, 312 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: I didn't know what you were gonna talk. And I 313 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: was like, oh my god. We got yacht. 314 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 3: That's not what I want. 315 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: So, like somebody probably said to him, hey, just be prepared. 316 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: He may ask about the divorce. And they told us, hey, 317 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: you can ask about the divorce, oh man, because they 318 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: wanted that out there. 319 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 2: Wow, So you had different information than he did, and 320 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: he had different information too. I wonder when you started 321 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 2: asking him questions about the divorce, was. 322 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: He like I thought he was acting for a minute. 323 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: I thought he was just like I was like, I 324 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: got you, Hey, okay, we know what's up right. I 325 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: don't fully believe that he was like, yeah, tell Bob, 326 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: because I didn't know. Thinking back, I think he would 327 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: have said, hey, ask me whatever you want, and he 328 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: never did. And so the interview is great. I think 329 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: the interview came off wonderfully because he's such a nice 330 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: guy and honestly, well that was happening and it was 331 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: fresh the divorce. I was with him like I. He 332 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: was not in a good place. It was obviously very hard, 333 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: and so him and I would play picktball, me you him. 334 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: Brett went to Iowa to go watch Arkansas by basketball, 335 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: but we were just doing crap, go to dinner, just 336 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: to He played a million dollar show with this just 337 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: to kind of keep his mind busy before he left. 338 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: I don't think that that was his intention, and it 339 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,719 Speaker 1: was not my intention. It ended up working out well 340 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: because holy I think got so much press, but I 341 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 1: never want any of my friends to have to go 342 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: through that. And he kind of had to go through 343 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: it again because of all that, and I had a 344 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: bit of guilt. A message him. I was like, dude, 345 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Like I don't. He's like, dude, all good. 346 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: So whenever I got that message from Chase Stokes, who 347 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: is on the Netflix show Banks Banks, it it blew 348 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: up again. Now that's all me because I posted it 349 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: now now that I'm not gonna I was like, what, 350 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: I got no integrity, but I couldn't believe that it 351 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: dude he put and I was like, this is crazy, 352 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: but also wanted to be like, I still don't dislike 353 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: Chase Stokes. I don't know him. I Morgan never had 354 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: any attention for it. Just then then it blew up. Dude, 355 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: It's five days later and stuff still popping up on stuff. 356 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: He crazy, Yeah, sounds crazy. Fall out. No, And some 357 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: people would be like, hey, have you talked to Kelsey. 358 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: I don't have Kelsey's number, and Kelsey doesn't have my 359 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: new number. I don't have anything against Kelsey at all. 360 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: I was with Morgan, I was both of the I 361 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: was Kelsey's friend first. Obviously, toured with us. I saved 362 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: her number one song like three times when she was 363 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: a baby artist. But she's done her own things, she's 364 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: crushed it, she did everything else. But we definitely were friends. 365 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: And then I became friends with both of them. And 366 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: then Morgan and I became better friends because we're just 367 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: two dudes and we can do dude stuff together. And 368 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: then he really is a nice dude, like a really 369 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: nice guy. Yeah, and so then that happened, and I 370 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: was just with Morgan. But I have nothing against Kelsey. 371 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: But no, I mean we haven't talked. She's not asked 372 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: to come on that. People will be like, why don't 373 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: you have her on Mike? She ever asked to come on? No, 374 00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: so she's never asked to come on. But I have 375 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: nothing like professional against her obviously, like I was with Morgan, 376 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: So like there are parts of that that I probably 377 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: got a side of, but even I know that. But 378 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, she doesn't have my number now and I 379 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: don't have her number. It probably be hard to track down, 380 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: but that's where we are. 381 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: Has Chase Stokes reached out to you again, I can't 382 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 2: say it. 383 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: Has cannot say. What's the closest you got to something 384 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: and it didn't work out? 385 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 3: Hmm? 386 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: I mean I've got a couple of those.

I had been getting to know people in Nashville. 472 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: I was ready.

So it worked out wonderfully. About 481 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 1: three or four days before the announcement of who was hosting, 482 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: I got a call from my manager, who I could 483 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: tell as soon. I just kept waiting for something to 484 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: go wrong. Anyway, They said, hey, you can't host the show. 485 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: And I was like why, and they told me why, 486 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: and they told me who they had to replace me 487 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: with and why they had to replace me with them. 488 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: And it wasn't anything that I did. It's something very 489 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: it was very political. I also understood that one hurt. 490 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: That's the heart, that's the suckiest one, because that was 491 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: like an actual goal of mine and I got picked 492 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: to do it. I was going to do it, and 493 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't like my wife says, I tell the story 494 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: like I'm about to walk on stage for the show 495 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: to start and they take a cane around my neck 496 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: and pull me off the stage not so fast, but yes. 497 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 1: But it was like a few days before the announcement 498 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 1: and they switched it and they they somebody else did that. 499 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: That one sucked, yeah, because that was a goal. But 500 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: that's something that didn't work. That's the biggest one. Now, 501 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: I've been able to do a lot of stuff unlike 502 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: like for both, Like I've presented on the CMA's a 503 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: bunch of times. That's fine. I've been Reba's number two 504 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: on the ACMs like three years in a row. But 505 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: that one is the one that really got in my butt. 506 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: When I tell you I got two things to tell 507 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: you guys. One that story like who who was? Do 508 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: you know who? If you don't know? If you have 509 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: to think about it, you don't, you do I do? 510 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: Would you use my pissed off of oh yeah? And 511 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: then I'm repissed though, Yeah, that one doesn't make me 512 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: mad as much as it just kind of hurts. It 513 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: just kind of is like, oh man, but I don't 514 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: get most things, but nobody gets most things in this space. 515 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 2: Is it because any of those any of those experiences. 516 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 2: Is that why you don't think you have it until 517 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: you actually have it? Or is it just something you've 518 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 2: always done? 519 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: Both, But especially in the television world, there have been 520 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: so many other times where like there's a good chance 521 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: and then I don't get it, but I never had 522 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 1: it or I never was even but it's like, hey, 523 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: you're one of the few, and then you don't get 524 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: You just don't get so many things that you expect 525 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: not to get them. And that's not a wan wan 526 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: thing nature the beast. Sometimes somebody slides in, somebody way 527 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: more famous, slides in that wasn't even up for the job, 528 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 1: that something didn't work out, and now they're free, so 529 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: they grab them. I get it. That's probably happened to 530 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: me in other situations and other people that I don't 531 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: even know about. Yeah, but where you got it? Where 532 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: I got something? Yeah, and it was so yeah, gift 533 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: take man. 534 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 3: What that's tough. 535 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,479 Speaker 2: That's just yeah, you're right, it's part of this business. 536 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: But it's gotta be hard taking a meeting even you know, 537 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 2: like taking a meeting and they're like, hey, we love 538 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 2: this idea, we're gonna that sounds awesome, and then you never. 539 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: Hear anything about nine meetings in a row. Oh that's 540 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: usually how it goes, so many you get it. Yeah, Okay, 541 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: three more questions. Who is an artist do you think 542 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: is massively respected inside the industry but the public probably 543 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 1: underestimates Hmmm, I can go WHI you think? Who comes 544 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 1: to mind for me? Is Charlie Worsham. 545 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 2: Everyone loves him, not just loves as a human and 546 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: he's awesome, plays, sings, rights. 547 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: Just that's the guy to me massively respected, has everything 548 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: about him that is a star, and for some reason 549 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: it just hasn't hit yet in a way he's he's 550 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 1: had great albums. Rubber Band. 551 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 3: Loved it. 552 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: But also I love him and everybody tries to hire 553 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: I mean, does session work, he goes on. He's just 554 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: the best. So I'd say Charlie Warsham is the person 555 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: that massively respected, but the public I don't think grasps 556 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: how consequential he is to this town and just country 557 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 1: music in general. Anybody come in mind for you. 558 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 2: I mean he's he's big, and he's successful. I just 559 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 2: feel like to the level like he should be, He's 560 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 2: he's not as Dirk s Bentley like I feel like 561 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 2: Dirk's Dirk s Bentley should be a superstar, Like everyone 562 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 2: should know who Dirk Spentley is. And I think that 563 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: this whole town respects Dirk Dirk s Bentley. Everyone you 564 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 2: talk to loves Dirk s Bentley. But he's just got 565 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 2: this spot where he's kind of like that's where he's 566 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 2: been and that's where he's gonna be, you know. And 567 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's just because because the way 568 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 2: he approaches music is interesting, Like he's so personal about 569 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 2: his music. Some artists they just kind of like, yeah, 570 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 2: I just get songs, I sing him, I perform and 571 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 2: that's it. He's he's like always so attached to his music. 572 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: His songs are so important to him, and I feel 573 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 2: like that since he cares that much, it kind of 574 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 2: keeps him at this level. 575 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 3: Does that makes sense? 576 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: He has a lot of number ones, he does have 577 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: a lot of number one and he's he's like superstar sells. 578 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: Maybe he should be president. 579 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 2: I feel like he should, Like has he He hasn't 580 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 2: won entertainment Entertainer of the Year, right, there's something like 581 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: that where he's never gotten that's fair entertainer of the Year, 582 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: and I feel like he should have many times. 583 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm glad you clarified that, because he's definitely a superstar 584 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:08,959 Speaker 1: and sells massive shows, but he has not won Entertainer 585 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: of the Year and also has probably over twenty number one, yeah, 586 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: twenty two number one, twenty two number. 587 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: One, which is interesting too because those award shows are 588 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 2: such a popularity contest that I would think political. 589 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: I would say political more than popularity. 590 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 2: Yes, you know, it's almost like high school a little 591 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 2: bit like the more you kind of hang out with 592 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 2: everyone in the industry or or you're involved with the industry, 593 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 2: the more they tend to vote for you. And I 594 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 2: don't know, I just kind of expected him to win 595 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: that several years and he never did. Also, when it 596 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 2: comes to Grammy, he's been nominated fifteen times and won none. 597 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 3: See that's crazy to me. 598 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: Fun fact. Charlie Warsham plays in Darks's band. 599 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 3: Really look at that? That makes it? 600 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: What are we looking at? 601 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 2: Well, they're together. That's both of our answers. 602 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: All right, we got two more here. What do you 603 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: think the biggest difference is between people who's six eeding 604 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: people who don't? 605 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 3: Well money? 606 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: Oh no, okay, you're literally okay, so you're saying the product, Yeah, 607 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: what happens? What's the product of success versus not? Okay? 608 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: So I read that question different. 609 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 3: So you go repeat the question. 610 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: What do you think is the biggest difference between people 611 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: who succeed in people who don't? 612 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 3: They have more money? 613 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 2: Okay, one has more money than. 614 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: It can absolutely be read though. 615 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 3: I mean, when you. 616 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 2: Talk about success, it's you know, people can say success 617 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 2: is having a family, like that's success, you know, But 618 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 2: I think with this question it's career, it's professional success. 619 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: We're just interpreting the question differently. But I'm glad that 620 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: you answer like that because other people probably heard it 621 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,239 Speaker 1: ask in the same way. How I read it is 622 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: what do I see as the difference is between people 623 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: who are successful and people who aren't. Okay, And the 624 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: only difference, the one difference that I see between successful 625 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: people and people who aren't successful are that the successful 626 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: people don't quit. That's it. That's the only difference, because 627 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: it goes back to even all the rejection we're talking 628 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: about a minute ago. Anybody I know that is successful, 629 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: if we're talking professionally, they probably got told no more 630 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: times than you would ever believe, and told the things 631 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: they were doing was so different or wrong or and 632 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: maybe they were, but they either modified or kept going. 633 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: The difference and successful people and unsuccessful people is that 634 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: successful people can be unsuccessful until they're not. They don't quit. 635 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: That's the difference. 636 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 2: What do you say to the people that don't quit 637 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 2: but they never make it? 638 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,239 Speaker 1: Then? Don't use the word never. Why would you use 639 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: the word never. You haven't quit yet, so the word 640 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: never doesn't exist. 641 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 3: You haven't quit. 642 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 2: So you believe, and I'm not disagreeing with you, but 643 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 2: do you believe that someone that just keeps working, keeps fighting, 644 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 2: keeps trying to improve their craft whatever it is, eventually 645 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 2: will get their big break. 646 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: I think you don't get your big break unless you 647 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: continue through a lot of no's, on a lot of hardship. 648 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: I think sometimes people find success by not quitting an 649 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: areas they didn't even expect to try to be successful. 650 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: Like let's say you want to be a star basketball player, 651 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: you're going to be a great coach because you maybe 652 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: you didn't have exactly that ability, but you're like, oh, 653 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: I love this and maybe I'm a little limited physically, 654 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: but i can still do this at a high level. 655 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm just going to pivot eight degrees. Like, I think 656 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: success is just not quitting. That's the to have an 657 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: irrational confidence and not quit. Those are the two traits 658 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: of the most successful people that I know. Because you 659 00:32:53,760 --> 00:33:02,719 Speaker 1: have to be irrational about your abilities, about how you 660 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: have to be irrational about what you what other people 661 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 1: say about you and how wrong it is. Yeah, yeah, 662 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: even if they're right. 663 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta believe in yourself. 664 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: Thanks man, Hey, no I'm talking no, no, thank you. 665 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 3: You're welcome. I believe that you'll make it some day, kid. 666 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: Final question, what's the biggest myth fans believe about the 667 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: country music industry? Oh? I got an easy one. 668 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 3: Oh, I have one. 669 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: You probably have mine. Go. 670 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 2: I feel no, no, no, the music. I feel like fans. 671 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 2: I feel like fans think that they're artists party harder 672 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: than they really party. 673 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: Oh that's interesting. I think there's an artist party phase 674 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: for most to all artists. 675 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: Yes, not to say that there aren't artists that make 676 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 2: up for the ones that don't party, but like, you know, 677 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 2: I think that the view that a lot of fans 678 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 2: have is like, oh, dude, you know like this this. 679 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 3: Artist, let get drunk. They party all the time. 680 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 2: But the reality is is if they did that all 681 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 2: the time, they wouldn't be able to perform all the time. 682 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 3: They wouldn't be. 683 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 2: Able to tour and play as many shows as they 684 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 2: do because that would take a toll on you. 685 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 686 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: I think usually I can speak to dude artists. Dude 687 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: artists do have a clip where they do exactly what 688 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: you're saying. They party so hard and they realize they 689 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: can't if they want to be successful, so they can't 690 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 1: keep doing it, but they do continue the image because 691 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: physically it's almost impossible to perform at a high level 692 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: if you're not investing in all the things that you 693 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: need to be health wise, mind and body to be successful. 694 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: And you're doing shows one night after another, Like you 695 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 2: can't do that every day. 696 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: I would say a myth is backstage sucks. 697 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 3: That's a good one. 698 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: There's nothing backstage. Sure's backstage passes hanging out backstage, and 699 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: you know what, the sound sucks back there. Everything sucks 700 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: about backstage. Everyone's like, I want to get backstage. You want, No, 701 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 1: it sucks. There's like sometimes there will be a room 702 00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: that an artist has where they walk in for like 703 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: ten minutes and do like a quick helloa to some 704 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: people who have waited in line for an hour through 705 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,919 Speaker 1: a client or a radio station to do a quick 706 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: meet and greet, and that's all fun, But there's nothing 707 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 1: happening backstage. 708 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 2: And that goes with it what I'm saying. People go 709 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 2: back there, we're like, where are the tequila shots? 710 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 3: They're not here, dude. 711 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: Dude, there's like four car batteries on top of each other. 712 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: That's all there is. 713 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 3: That's it. 714 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: That's what's running part of that show out there. The 715 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: biggest myth in country music is the backstage is cool. 716 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 2: But people love that backstage pass though, Can I get 717 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 2: a backstage pass for what? 718 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: I would say? The stuff that happens is happening on 719 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: the bus? 720 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, Hey, so what you're talking. 721 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: About, because that's like that person's apartment. 722 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 3: Yes, it is. 723 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: So anything that's like home, home, they're doing or anything. 724 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: It's or people are their friends are there if they're 725 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: that's happening on the bus. 726 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 2: What's the coolest bus experience you've had, Like any artists 727 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 2: that you've gone on their bus, Like it's kind of fun. 728 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: No, I don't really do fun generally. 729 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 3: What about like a good conversation. 730 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: I think something man Darius's cool because it was like 731 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: the South Carolina bricks.
