Speaker 3: such an.
Speaker 2: Early age, but not only just music and songs and songwriting,
Speaker 2: the mountaintop of music and songs and songwriting at a
Speaker 2: young age.

Speaker 2: For me right now, it'd be a.
Speaker 1: Eight piece from KFC.
Speaker 2: Say for you, I mean at a bucket of fried chicken.
Speaker 2: I haven't had that in white meat. No, you're going dark?
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, okay, I'm talking about five grilled chicken or
Speaker 2: frying what from KFC. I'm just saying, I mean, do
Speaker 2: they grilled chicken?
Speaker 1: I don't even know if they do. Anyway, I'm originally
Speaker 1: grilled chicken.
Speaker 2: I'm original recipe, eight piece bucket with a diet coke.
Speaker 1: Now, look, I ain't had that in a year and
Speaker 1: a half.
Speaker 4: Well that's good.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, I've really been cleaning it up. Bro, I
Speaker 3: got to I'm forty one, dude, I got a month.
Speaker 4: Oh you look younger than that.
Speaker 1: Thank you, man.
Speaker 4: I appreciate my cheap, my cheap. I'll see. The thing
Speaker 4: about it is that it's either you you in my
Speaker 4: in my opinion, it's either you focus on diet completely
Speaker 4: and then you don't have you know, you don't eat
Speaker 4: anything you like for ten years years, or you focus
Speaker 4: on exercise and diet to where that you can have
Speaker 4: you know, every once in a while.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm But I'm still not in project.
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, I mean there's certain things that I've
Speaker 4: probably just cut out now, but like fried chicken. But
Speaker 4: I don't like to eat a lot of fried stuff
Speaker 4: because of the trans fats and they're really bad, like
Speaker 4: a lot of the ways that they fry it. Yeah,
Speaker 4: put you know, like saturated fat isn't good for you,
Speaker 4: but I'll eat a lot of it. I love a
Speaker 4: steak with a bunch of like a remarblely steak and
Speaker 4: you know, one last night, have it for lunch, and
Speaker 4: I feel like that's all right. You know, that's that
Speaker 4: your body can better process that than it can with
Speaker 4: the trans fats. It's really bad. It really gets in
Speaker 4: your in your in your arteries and everything.
Speaker 2: So we pretty much don't fry food anymore, do you now.
Speaker 2: The only frying going onto my house is air frying. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's it. Which I don't know if that's probably given
Speaker 2: us cancer because of.
Speaker 4: The no, well, everything's going to get cancer. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was spraying on a sunscreen the other day and
Speaker 2: I was like, I wonder if like the sun has
Speaker 2: giving me more cancer than the spray on.
Speaker 4: Well, I just saw some article, which you know, of course,
Speaker 4: a thousand articles will tell you the opposite thing. Whatever
Speaker 4: you look up, you find.
Speaker 1: Exactly the whatever you want to hear, anything you want to.
Speaker 4: But I did just see something where they were like
Speaker 4: saying that that this that actually sun exposure is not linked,
Speaker 4: you know, in moderate amounts to cancer, and you're, yeah,
Speaker 4: you're probably more likely to get cancer from a chemical
Speaker 4: in something else than you are from the actual.
Speaker 3: Surprise buddy of mine, Rainy one Tanna, who's been on
Speaker 3: this podcast before, he.
Speaker 1: Actually, oh, you're good to I don't.
Speaker 4: Worry about that. Sorry, it's dead already.
Speaker 1: For quite some time. He said.
Speaker 3: You know what, man, once you cress forty, nobody can
Speaker 3: judge you about anything anymore.
Speaker 1: And I adhere to that, dude.
Speaker 3: Like, if I'm out in the sun instead of spraying down,
Speaker 3: I'm going long, long sleep and I don't care.
Speaker 1: I don't care what you think. Like I'm going sun blocker,
Speaker 1: long sleeve shirt, I don't care what you think.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 4: Oh, you're saying that after forty you just do well.
Speaker 4: I feel like you can do that. Before you hit fourty,
Speaker 4: you can't.
Speaker 3: Nobody can say nothing. Once you pass forty, you just
Speaker 3: get to do what you want to do.
Speaker 4: Nobody But like, I mean, how in the case of you,
Speaker 4: I can say you could be anywhere from thirty two
Speaker 4: to forty five take it, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: And actually probably thirty two to forty two. So you say,
Speaker 4: and you guys too, So how can I tell if
Speaker 4: someone's forty before I judge them?
Speaker 2: I think that's a mindset that I think. I think
Speaker 2: the earlier you figure that out, the better.
Speaker 4: Yeah, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Don't wait to tell you if Graham figured that out.
Speaker 2: If fifteen, nobody can tell you you want to do, Gham,
Speaker 2: do what you want to do. Grand dude, unless it's
Speaker 2: your parents. Do you got to do what your parents do?
Speaker 6: What you to do?
Speaker 4: Yeah, unless you're gonna get either arrested for it or
Speaker 4: have your stomach pumped.
Speaker 1: Don't do those things.
Speaker 4: Oh man?
Speaker 2: All right, we like to We like to start this

Speaker 2: What games are you trying to play?
Speaker 4: I want to play Microsoft Flight Simulator on it, and
Speaker 4: I want to play like I want to lots of
Speaker 4: games on it. You know. I feel like it's God
Speaker 4: telling me that I should probably not do that and
Speaker 4: waste my hours and maybe write songs instead and do
Speaker 4: that kind of thing. But I've been trying for weeks
Speaker 4: now because what's so, I've got the A body been
Speaker 4: like a boost for my for my Internet, and there's
Speaker 4: like a router there, or like an extension for the router.
Speaker 4: I put it on there, and I put like an
Speaker 4: Ethernet cable in there, all the things. But when my
Speaker 4: TV turns on, it's like a Samsung kind of smart TV.
Speaker 4: And when my TV turns on, it goes straight to
Speaker 4: this screen where it says you got to put in
Speaker 4: a code from the Xbox app that I had to download.
Speaker 4: And there's like a Wi Fi that comes from the
Speaker 4: Xbox that my phone just refuses to connect to. And
Speaker 4: then the Xbox I can't get it to connect to
Speaker 4: anything because you can't because I can't get the code in.
Speaker 4: It's like a vicious cycle. It's a catch twenty two.
Speaker 2: That sounds gave me a headache.

Speaker 2: mean she's like she's eighty pounds.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's huge, seventy pounds.
Speaker 3: So unfortunately, my wife was very correct in telling me
Speaker 3: that she needed to go to try Is that an
Speaker 3: unfortunate because I didn't want her to be right. I
Speaker 3: wanted to be right, and the fact that I'm a
Speaker 3: grown man and I've trained dogs before, and I can
Speaker 3: train this dog. But the kicker was that the last
Speaker 3: dog I had remy r ip.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good one, good one.
Speaker 1: I tried.
Speaker 3: I didn't have three kids and two jobs while I
Speaker 3: was training her, so I had time to grow her.
Speaker 2: You know, trainer.
Speaker 3: My wife was like, you don't have time, you don't
Speaker 3: have time. We got to get this dog under control.
Speaker 3: She's It would kind of be like if Warren's Sap
Speaker 3: walked through the door and just like hugged you. You'd
Speaker 3: be like, he's like a big he's big guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, didn't know.
Speaker 3: He probably at this point, being fifty seven years old,
Speaker 3: knows how big he is. My dog being six months,
Speaker 3: did not recognize how big she was. So dude, she's
Speaker 3: not kids. I mean I got kids. She comes through
Speaker 3: the hall and kids just go fly. That was my
Speaker 3: dog to it was like bowling a.
Speaker 4: China shop man and like pit bull and they'll scare
Speaker 4: the scared little kids sometimes to the pit bulls and
Speaker 4: they look scary and you know, but they're they're the
Speaker 4: sweetest dogs.
Speaker 3: And my other dog was already like six when my
Speaker 3: kids they couldn't man, they could pull, they could ride her.
Speaker 3: She never and this this was, you know, going nuts.
Speaker 4: That's actually good because they got used to.
Speaker 2: Total around totally normal. It was just the fear that
Speaker 2: actually my wife more than anything. He was like, p
Speaker 2: s A right, quick, get your kids dogs, to get
Speaker 2: your kids dogs.
Speaker 3: If you got kids, you can, if you can treat
Speaker 3: the dog, if you can give the dog the life
Speaker 3: it deserves.
Speaker 1: Get you, get your kids.
Speaker 4: And if you can't, just get dogs. And no kids,
Speaker 4: don't worry kids.
Speaker 1: So fits kids in the audience chunk them.
Speaker 4: Yeah I met humanely.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, so all that say. My dog goes to
Speaker 2: to training for two for four weeks.
Speaker 3: Two weeks into the train and they send us a
Speaker 3: video and she's like sitting and I'm like shying.
Speaker 1: I had my dog.
Speaker 3: I had her doing that like I need to see
Speaker 3: I need to see something. You know, this is a
Speaker 3: lot of money, a lot of time, a stake in
Speaker 3: front of her. Let me see something happening. I could
Speaker 3: not have been more wrong. We went and picked her
Speaker 3: up this week and this dog is a new shout
Speaker 3: out Canine Global and kind of prim Springs area west
Speaker 3: of town.
Speaker 1: Here. Man, they did a great job.
Speaker 3: She is so much more calm. She has not jumped
Speaker 3: on my kids a single time. She listens to directions.
Speaker 3: She's jumping in the back of the side by side

Speaker 2: I'm mad at Bradford pairs. I hate them. I got
Speaker 2: fourteen of them and every windstorm that comes through it
Speaker 2: cause it's it's like five hundred to eight hundred bucks
Speaker 2: a tree to get it topped.
Speaker 1: How do you have fourteen? I got fourteen? They line
Speaker 1: the whole property with Bradford pairs, and so they're all
Speaker 1: getting old.
Speaker 4: Now what do you mean they lined the whole property?
Speaker 2: Was this whoever planted those, whoever made the terrible divers
Speaker 2: of the house before you? Before I got there, before
Speaker 2: I bought it?
Speaker 4: You? How long have you had your place?
Speaker 1: Five years?
Speaker 4: Five years? Wow?

Speaker 2: like what until I saw that house?
Speaker 1: Probably why they saw house the probably summer, the summer
Speaker 1: of cutting up.
Speaker 4: The real estate agent mentioned how expensive it was to
Speaker 4: top those trees. I saw.
Speaker 1: I saw a meme.
Speaker 2: So my thing is like, it's that expensive to top
Speaker 2: of them, it's gonna give. It costs me almost fourteen
Speaker 2: ten thousand, fourteen thousand dollars going to cut so I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna do that.
Speaker 1: No, they're kind of invasive too.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we have around our property we have what are
Speaker 4: they called potacarpus.
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is.
Speaker 6: Bigotacarpuss, like big, big, big bush heath trees that grow
Speaker 6: up tall or if you trim them right, they they
Speaker 6: just bush out like that and uh and they're great
Speaker 6: for like privacy and everything, but you know, they can
Speaker 6: get really high and so it costs a lot to
Speaker 6: trim them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Bradford, I think the Devil made brad for pairs.
Speaker 4: Wow, that sounds like a song. Devil, Let's do it,
Speaker 4: Bradford Pears is a very singable.

Speaker 4: I going to say?
Speaker 1: Oh, meld.
Speaker 4: All right, So you on three right, you think of
Speaker 4: a random word, and it's generally not a person or
Speaker 4: a business. It's more like just a random word like
Speaker 4: tree or rock or country or whatever. And you think
Speaker 4: of a random word, you say it on three right,
Speaker 4: and then we'll say and then you guys will try
Speaker 4: and say the same word when you count after three.
Speaker 1: Off of those words, like what what?

Speaker 4: Fast to try and say the same words.
Speaker 1: Let's do it again, and let's get to one where
Speaker 1: we say the same word forever. That's the problem. Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll put a forty five second time. You'll do it again.
Speaker 2: Second, you'll do it again.
Speaker 1: Wait, you'll got it. Got another word?

Speaker 4: Close. I just went straight son you just.
Speaker 2: I was going to go if we close enough, alright, game,
Speaker 2: good game.
Speaker 4: Basically we did the musical version of that just.
Speaker 1: Devil bread circle. What I'm saying, I see what you're
Speaker 1: saying right there.
Speaker 2: Uh, let's talk about your your growing up. So you
Speaker 2: lived in Texas? Were you born and raised in Texas
Speaker 2: well up early?
Speaker 4: Yeah? So I was born in Austin, Okay. And then
Speaker 4: my mom helped start a Montessori school out in Spicewood,
Speaker 4: out where the ranch is cool, and so early on
Speaker 4: I would go to this Montessori school. But then they
Speaker 4: also had a place in Hawaii, and I since before
Speaker 4: I was born, and so I went to a Montessori
Speaker 4: school out there growing up early. But mostly I was
Speaker 4: in Austin until about seven or eight years old, and
Speaker 4: then I went I pretty much finished my schooling into
Speaker 4: high school in Maui, Hawaii, but we.
Speaker 1: Went to Malai on our home. Man, it's it's my
Speaker 1: favorite place I've ever been.
Speaker 4: Oh it's yeah, it's it's a beautiful place. And as
Speaker 4: soon as I could, I went and got myself a
Speaker 4: place there. Yeah, like you know, after Star is born,
Speaker 4: and with a lot of stuff, I had some some
Speaker 4: money saved up. ID been on the road for fifteen
Speaker 4: years and never you know, I was just literally two
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty shows a year on the road. And
Speaker 4: fifty shows oh yeah, yeah, because I'd go out. Because
Speaker 4: I'd go out. First it was in a van, and
Speaker 4: then it was in an RV, and then it was
Speaker 4: in you know, because I always wanted to just for
Speaker 4: my own sake, just do things on my own. You know.
Speaker 4: I never really wanted to, you know, I just I
Speaker 4: knew I was a good songwriter, a good musician, and
Speaker 4: a good singer and a performer, and so I just
Speaker 4: wanted to try and and prove to myself that I
Speaker 4: could go out and make people happy that you know, absolutely,
Speaker 4: And so I didn't really want to, you know, fast
Speaker 4: track myself. I wanted to put in the time, you know,
Speaker 4: and so we put in a grind for a long time.
Speaker 4: But that meant too being out on the road, you know.
Speaker 4: I was like, you know, eventually I started to be
Speaker 4: able to save up money because I wasn't really anywhere
Speaker 4: long enough to like pay rent, you know, because I'd
Speaker 4: go out on the road for the most of the year,
Speaker 4: and then i'd go visit my parents for like, you know,
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks in the winter, and then I'd
Speaker 4: go back out. And we're just always out, yeah, and
Speaker 4: if you're playing, ye, you're always you're just always out
Speaker 4: on the road recording, doing whatever. So I ended up
Speaker 4: saving some dough and eventually got up into Maui and
Speaker 4: decided about twenty minutes from where my parents and I
Speaker 4: and I grew up. It's part of it in Haiku
Speaker 4: is the north Shore.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 4: It's a beautiful place and it's just like my perfect
Speaker 4: you know, set up there. So I'm really happy about
Speaker 4: about That's a great spot to go in, like after
Speaker 4: you've been out the whole year long to go decompress
Speaker 4: and and if yeah, and and uh, and there's a
Speaker 4: lot of great little spots out here. I have a
Speaker 4: spot in Sylvan Park that I rent. I actually just
Speaker 4: rent it here. Uh And it's a great little area
Speaker 4: here and that's that's a beautiful place too, just in
Speaker 4: terms of being quiet and resting. And so I try
Speaker 4: to base out of here when I'm I'm working throughout
Speaker 4: the year because it's hard to get to Maui and
Speaker 4: and come back and forth.
Speaker 2: For sure.
Speaker 1: You know, what's your favorite thing to do while you're
Speaker 1: there is a surf.
Speaker 4: Surf my my buddy is a bow hunter. He always
Speaker 4: has fresh meat and access access steer out. Really oh man,
Speaker 4: it's a really good hunt.
Speaker 2: I heard that.
Speaker 1: I've never I've never had so.
Speaker 2: So we when we were there, we one day, we
Speaker 2: just took the We just took We rented a jeep
Speaker 2: for two We were there for two weeks and rented
Speaker 2: a jeep and stayed. We stayed at four different places.
Speaker 2: We stayed like the first three days we just did
Speaker 2: the resort thing all inclusive. We chilled out from the wedding, relaxed,
Speaker 2: and then we got the jeep and we went and
Speaker 2: stayed in uh Paia yahayah. And then we stayed up
Speaker 2: in the mountain on a little like farm, little spot. Beautiful, unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh.
Speaker 2: And then we stayed on the road to Hunt on
Speaker 2: the black on the black sand beaches over there in
Speaker 2: black sand. So and so we were we would take
Speaker 2: a one day. We were like, let's just drive around
Speaker 2: the whole island. Let's just take a time to just
Speaker 2: go see and we'll stop the road to Hanna and
Speaker 2: do the thing and eat lunch. And but we got
Speaker 2: to some part and I think when you're looking at Maui,
Speaker 2: it might have it might have been the north the
Speaker 2: northeast side of the of the island. But we ran
Speaker 2: upon this old church and I wanted to look at it.
Speaker 2: And we pulled off on this in the old church
Speaker 2: and you could see, you know, mountains up to your
Speaker 2: right and ocean down your left, and just one hundred
Speaker 2: yards out in front of us. Jordan was like, oh
Speaker 2: my goodness, what is that. And we looked and there
Speaker 2: was just a herd of accessteers standing in front of us.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was unbelievable.
Speaker 4: It sounds like you were out on the backside maybe
Speaker 4: cal Pole, near cal Pole, or like kip a Hulu.
Speaker 4: There's a little church out there, which a great there's
Speaker 4: a great little wave over there too, but that road
Speaker 4: is often kind of closed off to tourists going around
Speaker 4: the back area because it gets washed away. Sketchy too,
Speaker 4: pretty sketchy, Yeah, humble, but it's a great little area.
Speaker 4: And yeah, that's actually one of my favorite. My buddy
Speaker 4: Matt Meola is a professional surfer. He's one of the
Speaker 4: best in the world. He's, you know, one of the
Speaker 4: guys who just does like all the flips and I
Speaker 4: mean he was one of the first people to ever
Speaker 4: do like a flip on a surfboard. And uh, and
Speaker 4: he's he and I grew up together, and he's super
Speaker 4: into bow hunting. He's really really into bow hunting. So
Speaker 4: you know, the best best thing in Maui to me
Speaker 4: is just to go home hang out with all my
Speaker 4: friends that I grew up with there that all do
Speaker 4: outdoors the things, and you know, and we all go
Speaker 4: do you know with surfer we'll or we'll or he'll
Speaker 4: you know, I've gone out hunting with him, but he'll we'll,
Speaker 4: we'll eat just the most incredible We'll let cook a
Speaker 4: the leg of a female deer.
Speaker 1: Yes, access is considered one of the best mates.
Speaker 4: And but the way that he cooks it. He you
Speaker 4: got like a hibachi grill and he'll glaze it with
Speaker 4: a Jimmy chury that he that he makes, and he's
Speaker 4: get the whole leg and you just sear it just
Speaker 4: a little bit and then you slice little slices off
Speaker 4: and you serve it like that. Oh my god, and
Speaker 4: with the Jimmy jewry there and then you dip it.
Speaker 4: It's just like little morsels that and it's lean is lean,
Speaker 4: is good meat.
Speaker 2: It's so good for you, for sure.
Speaker 1: Does he hunt on Malway? Does he go to Lena's
Speaker 1: really good hunting too?
Speaker 4: Right? Like?
Speaker 2: Is that wrong?
Speaker 4: A lot of turkey on the Nie, that's what we're
Speaker 4: talking about. There's a lot of turkey there. But and
Speaker 4: I'm not saying it ain't. I don't think there's probably
Speaker 4: a deer there. But the deer were brought to Hawaii
Speaker 4: like the seventeen or eighteen hundreds by the I think
Speaker 4: the Indian government came and gave like seven axis deer
Speaker 4: really as a gift to the Hawaiian king uh and
Speaker 4: they think were brought to one of the islands and
Speaker 4: then kind of spread around from there.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 4: And yeah, and it's it's really interesting how they ended
Speaker 4: up there. Yeah, and they're considered invasive. They are you know,
Speaker 4: uh the yeah, and they eat everything, you know, so.
Speaker 1: They eat seasons year round, right, and.
Speaker 4: There's no season there. But the thing about it is,
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 2: Think there's like I don't I don't even think there's
Speaker 2: like a bag limit, like I think you can.
Speaker 4: Just no absolutely. But the problem is is that a
Speaker 4: lot of times they'll hire like out of state people
Speaker 4: to come in and just gun them down broad.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 4: And that was the thing is that you know, there's
Speaker 4: there's a big push to keep local hunting and make
Speaker 4: you know, give incentives for local hunters to go out
Speaker 4: with their bowls you know, well like bowl hunting, and
Speaker 4: it's just it's such a it's a much more sustainable
Speaker 4: thing for sure, and if you just kind of open
Speaker 4: up the land more to that, you know. But they're
Speaker 4: people making a lot of money on the idea of
Speaker 4: just kind of killing them in masks and and they're
Speaker 4: culling them and you know, there's even you know, I
Speaker 4: think it's a real bad call, but a lot of
Speaker 4: people trying to say that you know, you could just
Speaker 4: ways that they come up to get rid of the deer.
Speaker 4: I think are are are more motivated.
Speaker 2: By it always is you know, money, money, you know, and.
Speaker 4: I think that there's such a there's such an opportunity
Speaker 4: to have like a sustainable.
Speaker 2: Absolute there is, yeah, give and take there, but what
Speaker 2: that takes is money, right, You got to have some
Speaker 2: you got to have hired officials you know, are not officials,
Speaker 2: but like some sort of DTA you know, department resources
Speaker 2: kind of managing that herd.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's true. I mean, look, there's a lot
Speaker 4: of them out there, but they're but they're less and
Speaker 4: they're being pushed into different areas and sometimes.
Speaker 3: By commercialization or hunting or yeah.
Speaker 4: Well by you know, by the types of calling the
Speaker 4: you know that they do they kind of bring I
Speaker 4: mean in.
Speaker 3: New Zealand, they net them, they poison them, They helicopters.
Speaker 4: Some of these guys have floated poison and everybody on
Speaker 4: the island that that that understands it knows the right
Speaker 4: way to do it, but you know, you just kind
Speaker 4: of have to cut through a lot of tape to
Speaker 4: do that.
Speaker 6: For sure.
Speaker 2: Do you feel like there's a lot of people locally
Speaker 2: that do hunt that that absolutely really is there.
Speaker 4: There are a lot of local hunters. I mean, the
Speaker 4: pontil culture in Hawaii is is strong. It's a there's
Speaker 4: there's a farming culture, and the Pontiola is like the
Speaker 4: cowboy the Pontiola cowboys, and there's.
Speaker 1: I've literally never heard of it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's there's a lot of people love country
Speaker 4: music out there. Really, all the locals will drive in
Speaker 4: their lifted trucks and they'll be.
Speaker 2: Oh, man, Yeahwai country music.
Speaker 1: Hitch boys welcome.
Speaker 4: Because there's a lot of people that work construction and
Speaker 4: and and farms and and and.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have thought that. I just assumed it's all
Speaker 1: beaches and uh.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: And that's the thing about Maui too, is like Maui specifically,
Speaker 2: that's right, It's like that's it's dude. If you want
Speaker 2: to if you want to surf in the morning, you
Speaker 2: can go surf in the morning.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: If you want to go hunt a farm or hunt
Speaker 2: mountains in the afternoon and go do that. If you
Speaker 2: want to go hike and jump off waterfalls, you can
Speaker 2: do that. That's the It's the most incredible place. I mean,
Speaker 2: it's unbelievable.
Speaker 4: It's a really great. And there's a lot of great,
Speaker 4: really down to earth good people out there that just
Speaker 4: love to live off the land and kind of simple lives.
Speaker 4: And yeah, and that slow pace, it's a very slow pace,
Speaker 4: and that's what gets me, you know, ready for the
Speaker 4: next year. I'll go there and I'll spend two months
Speaker 4: with my friends there and we'll we'll you know, we'll
Speaker 4: we'll have barbecues and chill outcharge, recharge well, you know.
Speaker 4: And a lot of them are you know, uh to
Speaker 4: the age now where some of them are having kids
Speaker 4: and some of them are you know, uh and uh
Speaker 4: and and it's just nice. It's just a nice, slow
Speaker 4: kind of you know, being around that energy is powerful.
Speaker 1: Have they how have that has it been? Post fires?
Speaker 1: Are they?
Speaker 2: Are they rebuilding?
Speaker 4: So I was actually I was hunting the day of
Speaker 4: the fires. I was out with my buddy Matt and
Speaker 4: he was bow hunting, and I was I had gone
Speaker 4: out there. I was thinking, all right, I've never gone
Speaker 4: out with him. I want to go and really just experience, learn,
Speaker 4: learn the rope, Understand how to clean a deer, understand
Speaker 4: how to do this thing.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 4: I think it's a good skill to have.
Speaker 6: And and.
Speaker 4: We didn't get a deer, but we came back eight
Speaker 4: hours later having just been feeling great. It was just
Speaker 4: a really nice time.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And uh and and the island was was burning and uh.
Speaker 4: The first fires were that we heard about were up
Speaker 4: in Coola up country because there was there was just
Speaker 4: it wasn't just the Lina. There were four different fires
Speaker 4: and they were all over the different and we saw
Speaker 4: I mean, I have a friend who called me and said,
Speaker 4: I just saw a power line fall down and a
Speaker 4: big fire to start, you know, so it's like we
Speaker 4: know how it started. And the worst part about it
Speaker 4: was that afterwards it just became this social media craze
Speaker 4: about it. You know. Oh, it's like lasers and the
Speaker 4: government and the like whoa whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa what
Speaker 4: Let's just figure out how to put the fire out first.
Speaker 2: That's a great song title too, Yeah.
Speaker 4: Put the fire out first. Yeah, yeah, put your mask
Speaker 4: on first.
Speaker 1: Don't you go start write a song on me?
Speaker 4: Break? Yeah? Anyway, it was. It was really devastating, and
Speaker 4: then there was a lot of mixed messaging going out
Speaker 4: about like whether you should come because of respect for
Speaker 4: the local culture or whether you should not go. But
Speaker 4: then a lot of the locals work in the industries
Speaker 4: and the tourists power and so it was just very
Speaker 4: you know, and and a lot of people had to
Speaker 4: move away and leave a lot of locals that you know,
Speaker 4: got there, you know. And then people from overseas were
Speaker 4: coming and trying to like buy the properties that had
Speaker 4: been burned.
Speaker 2: On the dollar.
Speaker 4: So a lot of that had but I think I
Speaker 4: think they tried to do and they may have done
Speaker 4: a pretty good job at keeping that at bay and
Speaker 4: a lot of the people and the families or there
Speaker 4: was a settlement. I'm not sure if it got to
Speaker 4: you know, I'm not really sure. I was just boots
Speaker 4: on the ground for about a month afterwards with some
Speaker 4: of my friends. I mean, we were literally putting out.
Speaker 1: That's what I asked, what what are you? What were y'all?
Speaker 2: Were you literally like, let's hop of the trunck and
Speaker 2: just go see how we can help. Yes, because now,
Speaker 2: and I was gonna say that too. Community now it
Speaker 2: feels like that, Yeah, it feels like such a strong
Speaker 2: local presence of community and and like yeah, like if
Speaker 2: like I'm like, we're all MAUI, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 2: So like like, go to help out, go do what
Speaker 2: you can to rebuild.
Speaker 4: Initially, everybody came together, you know. Later on it became
Speaker 4: a little bit complicated with where does everybody go and
Speaker 4: who needs what and who needs more? You know, and
Speaker 4: and that, you know, that's always how it goes, you know.
Speaker 1: So what I want to know, you jumped the truck
Speaker 1: and you just head down to where the fires are.
Speaker 4: Well, we couldn't get there. Nobody could get there. The
Speaker 4: roads were blocked off and everything, you know, which was
Speaker 4: the problem. It was a lot of confusion there. But yeah,
Speaker 4: afterwards everybody was just like I was working with my
Speaker 4: flight school, and so I was helping to put supplies
Speaker 4: on a little airplane and get them flown out to
Speaker 4: a little airport right there. That would, you know, So
Speaker 4: that was kind of my I would go around to
Speaker 4: all the different places that were offering supplies and pick
Speaker 4: up you know, supplies, drop them off at my flight school.
Speaker 4: We'd load them up on the plane and then find
Speaker 4: with you know. And so that was that would that
Speaker 4: was And then the other thing was I had an
Speaker 4: auntie that my best friend AT's aunt basically his mom's
Speaker 4: best friend had a property that was still being threatened
Speaker 4: by fires that were popping up. So me and him
Speaker 4: and a bunch of other people went up there was
Speaker 4: clearing the brush around her house and we were uh
Speaker 4: and we were putting literally put taking bugs of water
Speaker 4: and putting out little fires that would spring up. And
Speaker 4: we had one helicopter that was helping us out that
Speaker 4: just happened to see all these fires, and so it
Speaker 4: was kind of cool. You could see how they dump
Speaker 4: the you know, they dip into somebody's pool and take
Speaker 4: the water out and then just dump all these little
Speaker 4: hot spots. And we'd be pointing out these little hot spots.
Speaker 4: O man. Yeah, And that happened for weeks and weeks,
Speaker 4: you know, and you know, and uh so that is it.
Speaker 3: The embers that are kind of getting put up in
Speaker 3: the air and then landing and the starting small fires or.
Speaker 4: Just like underground like this, you know, the there'd just
Speaker 4: be little like embers and coals that are just still
Speaker 4: still burning that would like, you know, pop up these
Speaker 4: different little spots all around them. It was a very
Speaker 4: surreal moment for for everyone because it was it was
Speaker 4: also a really high death toll comparatively with how many
Speaker 4: people there that there are on the island even and
Speaker 4: and that were in that city. There's only probably twelve
Speaker 4: thousand people in that city. So you think about it,
Speaker 4: like with the La fires being just an extreme devastation
Speaker 4: over a really really large area, but less death toll
Speaker 4: than the actual Maui fires. Wow, you know, and so
Speaker 4: a lot more people lost their homes, a lot more
Speaker 4: people in the really the Altadna area was just devastated,
Speaker 4: and that's one of the first like black areas that
Speaker 4: really started doing well for that community. And it's just
Speaker 4: really sad, you know, so like it, you know, a
Speaker 4: lot of underprivileged folks suffered the most. And I think
Speaker 4: that that's really the sad part of things is that
Speaker 4: you know, you know, but I mean everybody like in
Speaker 4: La came together and started helping it as well. And
Speaker 4: you know, I really that's the one thing that at
Speaker 4: times with adversity, it's nice to see people.
Speaker 2: No doubt, it is, no doubt.
Speaker 1: How's how's it now? Is it cleaned up?
Speaker 4: You know, they're doing they're doing what they can. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Good.
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm gonna read, uh, I'm gonna read something that
Speaker 2: you posted on on Instagram and and we can get
Speaker 2: into that and then go into your record.
Speaker 1: That's cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely. This is from Lucas four years ago. I
Speaker 2: was afraid to fly. Every time I got on an airplane,
Speaker 2: which was a lot. I felt I was rolling the
Speaker 2: dice and I couldn't rational rationalize my anxiety down. I
Speaker 2: smoked weed every day, I drank, I didn't exercise, and
Speaker 2: I was overweight. Life can throw me some real curveballs.
Speaker 2: I never made them public, and I never will. I
Speaker 2: appreciate what I had. I always have been grateful I
Speaker 2: had a roof over my head I could eat. However,
Speaker 2: the entertainment industry and my legacy painted a very narrow
Speaker 2: picture of me, of who I was supposed to be
Speaker 2: and what my life actually meant a painting. I thought
Speaker 2: I was meant to live inside, playing a part that
Speaker 2: wasn't really me, but that I had been conditioned to
Speaker 2: think that was part of the life I chose. I
Speaker 2: was truly not happy. I knew I had more potential.
Speaker 2: A key person at the right moment encouraged me to
Speaker 2: listen to myself, and I was quiet enough to hear.
Speaker 1: I could not.
Speaker 2: Ignore that voice. Dude, I got chill bumps all over
Speaker 2: my body. I needed to make the most of myself.
Speaker 2: I quit smoking, quit drinking. With the help of some
Speaker 2: amazing trainers, I got myself into shape, and in that
Speaker 2: new clarity, I learned to fly. I decided the best
Speaker 2: way to conquer my fear of flying was to learn
Speaker 2: how to do it myself. I don't know many pilots
Speaker 2: who are afraid to fly, and so I went to
Speaker 2: flight school. I faced my fear. Today, I'm in my
Speaker 2: mid thirties, in the best shape of my life, with
Speaker 2: a new album on the way, and with my friends
Speaker 2: and family around me encouraging me to be the absolute
Speaker 2: best version of myself. I never would have been able
Speaker 2: to picture this person I am four years ago. Four
Speaker 2: years ago I was afraid to fly, and now I'm
Speaker 2: a pilot. God ain't done. I had Graham read that
Speaker 2: to me. I had the Graam read that to me
Speaker 2: while we were driving up this morning. And dude, we
Speaker 2: immediately started to listen to your record after that, and like,
Speaker 2: that's that's inspiring stuff. Man.
Speaker 4: Well thanks and I and and.
Speaker 2: I don't know how many people you touched with with that,
Speaker 2: or with your story of sobriety and and and and
Speaker 2: conquering those fears. But like it touched me this morning day.
Speaker 2: It was it was inspired. Man.
Speaker 4: Thanks, you know, well, I'm glad that that it did.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 4: It took a lot for me to write that because
Speaker 4: I always admired people who just did what they did
Speaker 4: without having to tell anyone. Sure, you know what I mean,
Speaker 4: Like I really I have a friend in Maui who's
Speaker 4: just quietly one of the most badass humans I ever knew,
Speaker 4: and he doesn't need to tell anybody, he doesn't need
Speaker 4: to talk about it, and I look up to that humility. Sure,
Speaker 4: but there was just you know, I think that there
Speaker 4: was just something that that made me feel like I
Speaker 4: needed to share because of my platform, more of who
Speaker 4: I am than I would normally. You know, I've always
Speaker 4: just felt like, all right, just play your music and
Speaker 4: shut up, you know, and for sure, but I just
Speaker 4: feel like, you know, there are certain things that and
Speaker 4: other people told me too, like you got to share this,
Speaker 4: you know, what's going to help people? And I felt like, well,
Speaker 4: I don't know if like my music is going to
Speaker 4: help anybody. I just do what I do, you know,
Speaker 4: but maybe that story would maybe help people or inspire people.
Speaker 2: What was the turning point and the the thing about
Speaker 2: like you were living in a picture that you just
Speaker 2: thought you had to live in. That that a painting
Speaker 2: that wasn't yours. Like, what was the turning point to
Speaker 2: to start painting your own painting and live in the
Speaker 2: painting that you created and not that the painting you
Speaker 2: were placed in by yeah, your dad?
Speaker 5: Is that?
Speaker 4: I think the greatest lesson I ever learned recently is
Speaker 4: that you don't have to You don't have to become
Speaker 4: your heroes. You know, you don't have to live like
Speaker 4: them in order to be.
Speaker 2: A hero, be a hero.
Speaker 4: You know, you really are the word. You know, you
Speaker 4: are your own if you if you just listen to
Speaker 4: what the voice inside of you is saying you want
Speaker 4: to do, rather than what you know all of the
Speaker 4: all you know because I look up to my dad.
Speaker 4: He inspired me to become a musician. I started playing
Speaker 4: music so I could be closer to him. But you know,
Speaker 4: and then I think subconsciously, you know, I grew my
Speaker 4: hair long, I had a beard, and it wasn't like
Speaker 4: I was trying to be him, but I was in
Speaker 4: a way. I was like I wanted to be like
Speaker 4: him because I look up to him, just like everybody
Speaker 4: wants to be like their dad if they look up
Speaker 4: to their dad, or their mom, if they look up
Speaker 4: to their mom, you know. And I was like, but
Speaker 4: and then, you know, even with like Jimmy Hendrix and
Speaker 4: Stevie Ray Vaughan and all these you know, musicians that
Speaker 4: I that really touched me and inspired me growing up,
Speaker 4: I started living like them. I was, you know, smoking weed,
Speaker 4: doing those things that you know, you don't have to
Speaker 4: live all of the mistakes at the same time that
Speaker 4: you take the inspiration, you know. And I think that
Speaker 4: that was a big lesson that I learned. Like a
Speaker 4: lot of people that I see out there, just I
Speaker 4: think they feel like, well, in order to do this
Speaker 4: music thing, I got to act like the icons that
Speaker 4: I you know, that that came before me, because otherwise
Speaker 4: it's not real or well it's not you know. But
Speaker 4: what's more authentic to me is is that, like, do
Speaker 4: I have to be fed up to to to be
Speaker 4: a musician?
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 4: In fact, most of the songs I ever wrote were
Speaker 4: in moments of epiphany. There were in moments where I
Speaker 4: got through what I was going through and I was
Speaker 4: clear enough to put it into thought, you know. And
Speaker 4: so you know, I started now taking and now when
Speaker 4: I write, I write so much more and I write
Speaker 4: so much better now. But not that I don't write well.
Speaker 4: I mean the first song I ever wrote on my album.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, eleven years old.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was eleven as you were it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: You know what Chris Chris Tolson had to say about that, Yeah.
Speaker 4: Well yeah, he just said, man, if you're you know,
Speaker 4: I see he said, are you a songwriter? You're going
Speaker 4: to be a song I don't know. He said, well
Speaker 4: that song you don't have a choice. Wow, And so
Speaker 4: that got me inspired. Wow, that was that song really
Speaker 4: started my journey. My dad recorded it back then, and
Speaker 4: then that gave me the confidence to kind.
Speaker 3: Of do it's and listen, it is way beyond it's
Speaker 3: way beyond the normal eleven year old.
Speaker 1: I mean you hear that.
Speaker 3: I heard that song the way in and I was like, Okay,
Speaker 3: there's only a few eleven year olds in the world
Speaker 3: that have been exposed to songs enough and that much
Speaker 3: by the time they get to that age to write that. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's not a normal process.
Speaker 4: It was just yeah. I mean, like and like you said,
Speaker 4: I was exposed to the music from such a young age.
Speaker 4: It was just in me, I think, and I just
Speaker 4: some of the greatest music, and I decided, yeah, I like.
Speaker 4: But I also took an interest in it, you know,
Speaker 4: from a young age too. It was also something that really,
Speaker 4: you know, sometimes you either get the bug or you don't, right,
Speaker 4: and I got really I got the bug early, and
Speaker 4: so that anyway, so that was you know, that was
Speaker 4: the lie though, was that I had to live like
Speaker 4: those people in order to beat But I was eleven
Speaker 4: and I wrote that song and I hadn't done anything
Speaker 4: at that point. I think it's smart started smoking weed
Speaker 4: pretty close to that, but not, but it wasn't, you know,
Speaker 4: it honestly wasn't. It's not. It wasn't. It's not the weed,
Speaker 4: it's not the booze, it's not the debauchery, not that
Speaker 4: that gives you the inspiration, So you don't. So that
Speaker 4: was the big lie.
Speaker 1: That was the clarity.
Speaker 4: And so the clarity was, I don't have to be
Speaker 4: any of that. I don't have to look like I
Speaker 4: don't even have to look like my idols. I don't
Speaker 4: have to dress like my idol like them, sing like them.
Speaker 4: I just have to try and be as you know,
Speaker 4: strip all of that away and really try and figure out,
Speaker 4: all right, who were I what what do I have
Speaker 4: to offer? And I think for the rest of my life,
Speaker 4: everybody's going to compare me to my father or they're
Speaker 4: gonna you know, I'll always be two people who don't
Speaker 4: really know me. A nepo baby. And that's fine, you know,
Speaker 4: that's the term that's been thrown around. And like, you know, right,
Speaker 4: you know, I got opportunities, you know, and that that
Speaker 4: others wouldn't get.
Speaker 3: But also, if you're out there playing two hundred and
Speaker 3: fifty days a year, ain't nobody giving you nothing?
Speaker 4: Dude?
Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's serious.
Speaker 4: I had to prove to myself that I was worth something,
Speaker 4: and so I had to tell myself, all right, you're
Speaker 4: gonna have to work twice as hard, and you're going
Speaker 4: to have to because other people aren't going to think
Speaker 4: that you had to work at all.
Speaker 2: And so you know, and and and I and I
Speaker 2: love that because it ain't about what other people think.
Speaker 2: It's proven to yourself that something. And then you know,
Speaker 2: for the rest of my life, I get to walk
Speaker 2: through life saying I tried my hardest. And then when
Speaker 2: I die, if I'm looking at and taking my last breath.
Speaker 2: I can say you know that I did a good
Speaker 2: job and I gave it my best, you know, and
Speaker 2: that's what all of us, I think, are searching for.
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you what you did a good job
Speaker 1: on is this record. It is so good.
Speaker 4: And Shooter Shooter is great, shooters great, He's done a
Speaker 4: lot of great stuff. He's working on Jake Owen record
Speaker 4: right now. What I thought, I probably maybe I shouldn't
Speaker 4: have said, but they are working. Oh man, I heard
Speaker 4: some sounds good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your favorite? We got a little sneak it
Speaker 2: comes out of this Friday everybody speaking of I mean.
Speaker 3: I got a bunch I love. I loved you were
Speaker 3: it just just to kind of you take some notes. Well,
Speaker 3: I'm just making sure I'm saying the title. You're just like, yeah,
Speaker 3: uh you were. It was nasty, just because you know, man,
Speaker 3: it gives a little insight into like what you were
Speaker 3: going through as a child, And there's so many different
Speaker 3: emotions without no no offense. This is what I'm trying
Speaker 3: to get to. It's like, as an eleven year old,
Speaker 3: you were writing things in that song. Some of the
Speaker 3: things I feel like an eleven year old should feel
Speaker 3: some of those things. I felt like eleven year old
Speaker 3: shouldn't have had to feel. You know, it's like there's
Speaker 3: some there's some poignant words in there that it's it's
Speaker 3: it's just kind of an eye openings to who you
Speaker 3: were and where you were at that time, which is
Speaker 3: beautiful and and I love that one.
Speaker 1: You're welcome.
Speaker 4: There was a lot of stress in the family at
Speaker 4: the time.
Speaker 3: I didn't mean you're welcome. I meant you're welcome to
Speaker 3: talk about it.
Speaker 4: It was just yeah, I mean, look the childhood, there
Speaker 4: was a lot, there's a lot of family dynamics that
Speaker 4: were happening, and it was you.
Speaker 1: Know, uh, and so I can't imagine.
Speaker 3: I mean, our dad's a preacher, and and and you
Speaker 3: were talking about like fitting into that narrative. I feel
Speaker 3: like in our small town, in a very much more
Speaker 3: microscopic way, we were in the same.
Speaker 1: Position that we were putting a box.
Speaker 3: It was like, you're gonna be a youth minister, you're
Speaker 3: gonna you're gonna be in a gospel quartet or a trio.
Speaker 1: Or you're gonna be a preacher. And if you're not,
Speaker 1: you might not be doing God's will. Fear life.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was a real struggle, man, I mean,
Speaker 3: you know, and it was it was one of those
Speaker 3: things you'd go to youth camp or whatever and they
Speaker 3: ask for people to be saved, and then they'd ask
Speaker 3: for people to dedicate their life to Christ.
Speaker 1: And it was like, you felt like the entire row
Speaker 1: is going, well, damn, you're gonna do it. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're already kind of doing the thing. Why don't you
Speaker 1: just go? And I'm like, and I and I pride
Speaker 1: myself on never doing the thing.
Speaker 2: And it wasn't that I was against Christian service rebella
Speaker 2: and you want to lie about it.
Speaker 1: I didn't feel impressed to do that.
Speaker 3: And it's a hard it's a hard fight to fight
Speaker 3: as a impressionable young person.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think it would have been a lot easier
Speaker 4: for me, though, if I had gone into finance, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean, if I'd done something completely different,
Speaker 4: you know, and just not tried to follow that voice voice.
Speaker 3: But that's the thing, man, you spoke about that a
Speaker 3: second ago, and that really resonated with me. Once you
Speaker 3: decide to to listen, to listen to that voice, and
Speaker 3: and you back that, you back what the voice is
Speaker 3: telling you by effort, right and yeah, and for me
Speaker 3: that's going and playing the shows.
Speaker 1: It's learning. It's learning music your own way.
Speaker 3: It's been inspired by your own things like that's what
Speaker 3: makes Lucas lucas well.
Speaker 4: And I also and I say that it would have
Speaker 4: been easier for me. I wouldn't have been because I
Speaker 4: didn't have a choice, but also would have been to
Speaker 4: follow the like I've always been very unable to pretend
Speaker 4: in my life.
Speaker 1: It's a good quality of it. Yeah, it's also tough.
Speaker 4: It's hard because it's it's like, you know, I've been
Speaker 4: brutally honest many times I've been you know. You know,
Speaker 4: it's you know, and and sometimes my opinion flies in
Speaker 4: the face of convention. Uh, you know, if you will.
Speaker 4: But I I the thing about that, though, is that
Speaker 4: also looked at the influences that my father had. I
Speaker 4: looked at the influences that Jimmy Hendrix had, the influences
Speaker 4: that Stevie ray Vaughn. So if I loved someone's music,
Speaker 4: I look at what they listened to and and that
Speaker 4: became my study. You know. So when I was young,
Speaker 4: I was listening to Hubert someone, I was listening to
Speaker 4: Howl and Wolf. I was listening to Lightning Hopkins. I
Speaker 4: was listening to Hank Williams. I was listening to Lefty Frizel.
Speaker 4: I was listening to you know, Ernest Tubb and and
Speaker 4: people that my dad grew up listening. Jangle Reinhart was
Speaker 4: something we both love and find, you know, And I
Speaker 4: still I sit for hours now practicing jangle reinhart uns.
Speaker 4: You know, uh, like like just good for It's good
Speaker 4: for the brain, it's good for the Dexterity's true for
Speaker 4: the fingers. And so that's that's you know, there's so
Speaker 4: much to absorb and learn in music that it never ends.
Speaker 4: And that's and as long as you, I think, always
Speaker 4: consider yourself a student of music, then then you're never
Speaker 4: going to go wrong.
Speaker 1: For sure.
Speaker 3: Give me a little bit on disappearing. Why that was
Speaker 3: the one that almost maybe wrecked this morning? Uh, it's
Speaker 3: with you and Steven Wilson.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Stephen Wilson Jr. Is a fantastic Musician's a fantastic
Speaker 4: a great human and a scientist. He's a food science.
Speaker 1: Cut your hot dogs, cut your hot dogs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's the guy who helps make your dog food.
Speaker 2: And would knock your head off. Yeah, he would absolute
Speaker 2: knock your head off, bit of her body if he
Speaker 2: punched you in face.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it does seem pretty like but yeah, it's so
Speaker 4: we wrote this song. We've wrote written many songs actually,
Speaker 4: and we really write well. And so some people you
Speaker 4: just sit down and you write a song in an
Speaker 4: hour and you're like, all, let's do another one, as
Speaker 4: you guys know. Uh, and so we wrote this song
Speaker 4: and this was out of the batch, just the most
Speaker 4: poignant I think that we'd written and uh, and both
Speaker 4: of us were like, wow, that's really good. And so
Speaker 4: we went in a studio just down the road from
Speaker 4: my place. Uh, Anderson East has a great studio and uh,
Speaker 4: and so we we recorded it and it sounded great
Speaker 4: and it was just a beautiful afternoon and everyone in
Speaker 4: the label was stoked and we so, uh, yeah, we
Speaker 4: decided to put it on the album. Uh, and I'm
Speaker 4: so glad we did. We power it's really it's really
Speaker 4: one of my favorites on the album, and I'm looking
Speaker 4: forward to what people think about it.
Speaker 2: And obviously, oh man, it's it's serious.
Speaker 3: There were some lines in there that just that really,
Speaker 3: you know, more than coffeed me I didn't even have
Speaker 3: to have my coffee.
Speaker 1: Man, what about you? What yours?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 1: The what's the friend? Let me be a friend friend. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a great song. I just found that, like.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 5: It was.
Speaker 2: It's different sonically throughout the whole process. Like you get
Speaker 2: your traditional country, you get your Stephen Wilson inspired you
Speaker 2: know now on guitar thing that.
Speaker 4: Was Stephen on the guitar there, yeah, and uh and.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if it was is the friend
Speaker 1: in the end? Is that a tempo? It was the Seers. No,
Speaker 1: it's not really temple. There was one.
Speaker 2: There was one melodic tempo kind of like mid tempo
Speaker 2: thing that was just it was so it was so
Speaker 2: good man. And the whole thing was the Born running
Speaker 2: out of time. Yes, yes, Born at a time. That's
Speaker 2: a great that's a great feel.
Speaker 4: Tried to get like.
Speaker 3: Then when you started talking about your pilot, I.
Speaker 1: Mean the first.
Speaker 4: Dream.
Speaker 2: Try to set it down somewhere, yeah, man, trying to
Speaker 2: set it down.
Speaker 4: Ferraro and John dishes that with them. That was a nice,
Speaker 4: nice little set.
Speaker 2: Yeah, some heavy hitters. That's awesome. Yeah, man, well it's
Speaker 2: it's awesome.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 2: Congratulations make you happy too.
Speaker 1: I thought that was make you happy as a sneaker, Yeah, sneaky.
Speaker 4: That one to me just feels so good. And the
Speaker 4: guitar and it's like it's got kind of like a
Speaker 4: Fleetwood Mac kind of like done.
Speaker 2: To man.
Speaker 1: The jump he hate done. Yeah it never will be. Yeah,
Speaker 1: never will be.
Speaker 4: Yeah that was that wasn't great. You know, God ain't done.
Speaker 4: It's probably my favorite on the on the record, just
Speaker 4: because you know it was and as I'm glad it's
Speaker 4: the first statement we made as a single coming out,
Speaker 4: you know, post that post, you know, post what it
