- 5:07Speaker 4: I want to highlight this text from Jay talking about
- 5:11Speaker 4: band riders my college roommate is pretty high up on
- 5:13Speaker 4: the late the ladder for Live Nation. Oh the story,
- 5:17Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he needs to write a book. Jay, I
- 5:19Speaker 4: can only imagine the insanity. I spent the last five
- 5:23Speaker 4: years working essentially in country music radio. The cool thing
- 5:28Speaker 4: about working in country music radio or country musicians, yeah,
- 5:33Speaker 4: because they will do something that most other musicians don't do.
- 5:36Speaker 4: They do promo. They show up, they talk to you,
- 5:39Speaker 4: they'll they'll get you can text them, they'll give you
- 5:41Speaker 4: their phone number. They're just cool. They're fun to they're
- 5:43Speaker 4: fun to deal with.
- 5:44Speaker 1: They recognize that the people and the conduits to the
- 5:48Speaker 1: people are important.
- 5:49Speaker 4: Always been the way and still to this day. I
- 5:51Speaker 4: anticipate it's going to be the way for a long time.
- 5:53Speaker 6: If you were still in the country music scene, know
- 5:55Speaker 6: with the Jelly Roll divorce and Bunny and.
- 5:57Speaker 5: Everything lies on. How big of a top do you
- 6:00Speaker 5: think that is right now? Because I've been seeing headlines
- 6:03Speaker 5: about it, but people have been going.
- 6:04Speaker 4: Why the Jay Rold thing is crazy? And what I
- 6:06Speaker 4: would say, he kind of did it to himself because
- 6:09Speaker 4: he spent the last three or four years making his life,
- 6:13Speaker 4: uh like his cat like he he and he's that's
- 6:16Speaker 4: who he is. That's who the.
- 6:18Speaker 7: Guy is, and Bunny as well.
- 6:19Speaker 4: Yeah, but I I knew him from before the first single,
- 6:23Speaker 4: and he was he's just that guy, and it's unfortunate.
- 6:28Speaker 4: Wouldn't necessarily be wouldn't necessarily be something I'd want to
- 6:30Speaker 4: talk about. It's kind of awkward frankly really, but uh,
- 6:33Speaker 4: but yeah, people are people when you when you put
- 6:36Speaker 4: your when your regular life becomes your content, then your
- 6:39Speaker 4: fans expect your regular life to continue to be your content,
- 6:43Speaker 4: even when it's stuffed.
- 6:44Speaker 7: That's not that it's a double thing. It's a double
- 6:47Speaker 7: edged sword. Yeah.
- 6:48Speaker 1: It endears your fans to you. It makes it significantly
- 6:52Speaker 1: more intimate. However, then all the bad stuff's got to
- 6:55Speaker 1: come out too.
- 6:56Speaker 4: But all that said, Uh, one of the things you
- 6:58Speaker 4: do when you're in country, right, video is a lot
- 7:01Speaker 4: of times you do these things called guitar polls. These
- 7:04Speaker 4: are like package shows, right. Usually you do them sometime
- 7:07Speaker 4: in the holiday, maybe one in the summer or whatever.
- 7:10Speaker 4: But you call some of these guys and you say, hey,
- 7:12Speaker 4: do you want to come down? Maybe you and your
- 7:14Speaker 4: guitar player. If you want to bring more, that's fine,
- 7:17Speaker 4: but just you know, play play five or six songs
- 7:19Speaker 4: for the crowd. Everyone gets on stage. You know, it's fun.
- 7:22Speaker 4: You give away tickets on the radio, you give away
- 7:24Speaker 4: tickets on site. Everybody wins, right, it's a great time.
- 7:28Speaker 4: So with those shows, you're thinking, well, this is pretty
- 7:32Speaker 4: cut and dry. We're just gonna basically fly in. We'll
- 7:35Speaker 4: pay you to get here, and then you know, well,
- 7:39Speaker 4: if you want anything like, well, ask you. Usually it's
- 7:43Speaker 4: more stuff that's on stage or whatever, but if you know,
- 7:45Speaker 4: we got dressing rooms, so is there anything you want?
- 7:48Speaker 4: And there are some that absolutely go off the deep
- 7:52Speaker 4: end on these riders they do. I'll tell you the one.
- 7:54Speaker 4: I will not mention the name, but he is massive
- 8:00Speaker 4: right now. He came in, he and one guitar player.
- 8:06Speaker 4: They asked for six different fifths of alcohol, three different
- 8:10Speaker 4: meals catered. Uh, like all a workout facility. We had
- 8:17Speaker 4: to bring in workout equipment for this gentleman. And the
- 8:20Speaker 4: list went on and on and on. He showed up,
- 8:23Speaker 4: uh he and again you know all the usual stuff
- 8:25Speaker 4: like side you know, a ton of like six cases
- 8:29Speaker 4: of coke, all this other stuff and loaded it all
- 8:31Speaker 4: onto his bus. Uh, spoke to no one, played his songs,
- 8:36Speaker 4: did not talk in between the songs, got back on
- 8:39Speaker 4: the bus and left. That's kind of a downer, very much.
- 8:42Speaker 4: That's kind of a downer. Another one, we actually had
- 8:45Speaker 4: to buy underwear, like like like packages.
- 8:48Speaker 7: Of underwear that was on the list.
- 8:51Speaker 4: Yeah, because they were on they were on the road
- 8:53Speaker 4: at the time. This one actually made sense, like, look,
- 8:55Speaker 4: we don't really have time to do laundry. Can you
- 8:57Speaker 4: just pick us up like five packs of hay use those? Yeah, whatever,
- 9:02Speaker 4: we just did it's and things like that, So you
- 9:05Speaker 4: get occasionally that. I will say this that the the
- 9:08Speaker 4: wildest one was a rider that was just literally two things.
- 9:12Speaker 4: It was one pint of Jack Daniels and a pot
- 9:17Speaker 4: of tea. That was it. That was the only It.
- 9:21Speaker 7: Was probably medicinal for the throat.
- 9:24Speaker 4: You want to know who that one was? Sure, Lany Wilson, Oh, okay,
- 9:29Speaker 4: no requests, no nothing, Hey, give me a pot of tea,

- 9:44Speaker 4: is a huge thing in the country world. If you win,
- 9:47Speaker 4: that was like here on top of the world. She is.

- 9:55Speaker 4: and you know that was it. No problems, no hassles.
- 9:57Speaker 6: No hard working. She's genuine you can tell she is.
- 10:00Speaker 5: And she advocates for lots of women in the country

- 24:43Speaker 7: Now, if he was if he was working over the.
- 24:46Speaker 4: Griddle while doing this, still flipping eggs and yeah, dude.
- 24:51Speaker 1: Banging the spatchel of Yeah, I mean, that would have
- 24:53Speaker 1: been that would have been awesome.

- 24:58Speaker 7: It is.
- 24:59Speaker 1: You see the those guys at the Hibachi grills, Man,
- 25:02Speaker 1: they can play some tunes on those.
- 25:04Speaker 4: Let's talk the biggest topic in the news today. If
- 25:08Speaker 4: I'm going by counts of stories, it has to be
- 25:11Speaker 4: cycle of sporn or otherwise known as the Explosive Diary
- 25:15Speaker 4: of Parasite.
- 25:16Speaker 1: And we hit this kind of early on and then
- 25:19Speaker 1: kind of shied away from it because.
- 25:20Speaker 4: Yeah, we already got got tired of talking about it.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Well, and we tend to be the newsleaders, and when
- 25:25Speaker 1: we when we break things, a lot of times they'll
- 25:28Speaker 1: then come back in the mainstream and we've already taken
- 25:32Speaker 1: care of business.
- 25:33Speaker 7: But yeah, it's back.
- 25:34Speaker 1: I was reading I saw an article about this poor
- 25:36Speaker 1: lady you who came back came down with the cyclospora
- 25:40Speaker 1: or whatever on her honeymoon.
- 25:42Speaker 7: Apparently that was a big deal. Geez, I don't know
- 25:45Speaker 7: anybody that's had it.
- 25:47Speaker 6: I don't know a single Yeah, do you yep? So
- 25:50Speaker 6: I'm not going to rite out which family member mine.
- 25:53Speaker 4: You had a family member that had it.
- 25:55Speaker 6: Had two family their whole group had it. The three
- 25:57Speaker 6: of them did.
- 25:58Speaker 7: So they went to the same taco bell was it.
- 26:01Speaker 4: Do they know where they got it from?
- 26:02Speaker 6: They live in San Antonio.
- 26:03Speaker 4: They live in the depths. Yeah, okay, so let me
- 26:06Speaker 4: San Antonio.
- 26:07Speaker 5: They went out to eat. I don't know the name
- 26:09Speaker 5: of the exact restaurant. I'd have to ask.
- 26:11Speaker 4: Don't worry about it. We'll get this. I don't want
- 26:13Speaker 4: to I don't want to unfairly malign a san Antonio
- 26:17Speaker 4: what I believe could be. I know the words about
- 26:20Speaker 4: to come out of your mouth. I don't want to
- 26:21Speaker 4: say I kind of like that place. So like, let's
- 26:24Speaker 4: well just say that it's not.
- 26:25Speaker 1: The fault of the place, it's the fault of the supplier.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Apparently they have identified Taylor Farms as the specific supplier
- 26:33Speaker 1: for the lettuce for Taco Bell locations in five states.
- 26:37Speaker 1: That has been part of the cause. So it's all
- 26:41Speaker 1: about the supplier. It's in this case, it's not necessarily
- 26:45Speaker 1: about the restaurant.
- 26:46Speaker 4: Right, Okay, all right, So how bad was it?
- 26:49Speaker 7: Riley?
- 26:50Speaker 5: So they had the version of it that lasted about
- 26:53Speaker 5: twenty four to forty about four okay, so one member
- 26:57Speaker 5: had it for about a week, one had it for
- 26:59Speaker 5: about two days. The youngest had it for about twenty
- 27:02Speaker 5: four hours.
- 27:03Speaker 6: So it ranged within a week.
- 27:05Speaker 5: And it started off they said just like a stomach ache,
- 27:09Speaker 5: a little bit of a rumble, like, oh no, we
- 27:10Speaker 5: might be.
- 27:10Speaker 6: Getting food poisoning.
- 27:11Speaker 5: To the They were laying on the couch in the
- 27:17Speaker 5: fetal position, holding their stomach, saying this was one of
- 27:20Speaker 5: the worst experience of their life and that they hope
- 27:22Speaker 5: they never.
- 27:23Speaker 4: Go through this, they say, they say, don't play with it.
- 27:25Speaker 6: No, not play with it.
- 27:27Speaker 1: I have had food poisoning in the past, Yeah, and
- 27:32Speaker 1: I know I've had maybe minor bouts, but one that
- 27:35Speaker 1: I was so sick I could not watch television. I
- 27:39Speaker 1: just had to lay in a cool, dark place, good Lord.
- 27:44Speaker 1: And that was as sick as I think I've ever been.
- 27:46Speaker 4: So this could be one of those.
- 27:48Speaker 7: Yeah, I think so. That's kind of what they're describing.
- 27:50Speaker 4: It's let us what do we need to watch out?
- 27:52Speaker 1: Well, they say you need to watch out for the lettuce.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Other types of fresh produce as well have been grapes, uh,
- 28:01Speaker 1: cilantro onions, those have been culprits in the past, not
- 28:07Speaker 1: necessarily in this particular outbreak. They say, for general prevention,
- 28:12Speaker 1: thoroughly wash your produce. Keep in mind that it is resilient,
- 28:16Speaker 1: may not be washed by a simple or removed by
- 28:18Speaker 1: simple washing or standard chemical disinfectants.
- 28:21Speaker 7: So wash it really good.
- 28:23Speaker 1: Uh, stay away from the iceberg lettuce and the five
- 28:27Speaker 1: states that have been identified as having the problem with
- 28:31Speaker 1: the taco bells, and just generally stay away from the
- 28:34Speaker 1: iceberg to lettuce, and that's what they or just.
- 28:37Speaker 6: Stay away from taco bell for a couple of weeks.
- 28:39Speaker 7: I was.

- 29:06Speaker 4: This is they're literally telling me, hey, stay away from
- 29:10Speaker 4: the bag salad as I am consuming a bag salad.

- 36:44Speaker 5: weeks and he lost thirty five pounds.
- 36:47Speaker 7: Let me tell you what.

- 37:35Speaker 4: through two panes of glass between me and my mom
- 37:38Speaker 4: sitting by the window, shattered the glass on the oven door.
- 37:41Speaker 4: We were lucky it didn't. It would have taken him
- 37:43Speaker 4: out immediately if it had done that.
- 37:44Speaker 1: My wife got hit by a rock while she was
- 37:46Speaker 1: in the sonic drive in and somebody was mowing, went

- 37:52Speaker 4: Car door get ouse, sure enough, garage door springs.
- 37:56Speaker 7: Oh god. Yes.

- 38:02Speaker 4: with such forces dislodged the spring, which shot straight through
- 38:05Speaker 4: the wooden garage door, shattering it to a million pieces.
- 38:08Speaker 4: Most terrifying moment I've ever seen, says this purse.

- 38:18Speaker 1: my my fifteen pound sheegele. We thought he was dead.
- 38:22Speaker 1: He survived. That's call him. They called him the miracle dog.
- 38:25Speaker 4: Cat bites. My cat bit me ended up in surgery
- 38:29Speaker 4: because the infection was severe, could have lost a thumb
- 38:33Speaker 4: or gotten sepsis. Go to a doctor and get an
- 38:37Speaker 4: animal byte cleaned every time.
- 38:40Speaker 1: And the cat would have been proud by the boy
- 38:42Speaker 1: the cat. That's the part they don't tell you.
- 38:45Speaker 7: Yeah, the cat would have been like, got it.
- 38:47Speaker 4: That's exactly what the cat was going for.

- 38:54Speaker 4: Grape choking is one of the most common reasons of
- 38:57Speaker 4: death among choking.
- 38:58Speaker 7: I ate grapes yesterday.
- 39:00Speaker 4: And finally, holes at the beach.
- 39:02Speaker 7: Holes.
- 39:03Speaker 6: Holes okay, yes, one hundred.
- 39:05Speaker 4: Holes at the beach. You get into one all of
- 39:08Speaker 4: a sudden it collapses around you. They can't get you
- 39:09Speaker 4: out in time. It turns into quick sands, a whole
- 39:11Speaker 4: big thing like big the roadway. If you suffocate big
- 39:13Speaker 4: deal holes, more more people die of holes and die
- 39:16Speaker 4: of sharks. Like in twenty five years.
- 39:20Speaker 6: Every single year, Power, We'll have to talk about this
- 39:22Speaker 6: one story that happened that I was near about a
- 39:25Speaker 6: hole on the beach. They were digging it, though, and
- 39:28Speaker 6: it collapsed around him, thirteen feet around them. He was
- 39:30Speaker 6: thirteen feet underneath the sand. They got to him though.
- 39:33Speaker 4: He made an air hole.
- 39:35Speaker 6: When you get in that scenario, you have to make
- 39:38Speaker 6: a hole of space for air, and he created air
- 39:40Speaker 6: by moving his.
- 39:41Speaker 4: Head back around. I'm telling you people, don't do what
- 39:42Speaker 4: he's doing. We're giving you things to be afraid. Those
- 39:44Speaker 4: are legitimate things be afraid of today. If you want
- 39:46Speaker 4: to get back sound not on that list.
