• 5:14
  Speaker 4: I was on the shot put team for the first
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: year I was on the shot put team. I remember
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: the coach. First thing he said, like when we got
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: on the team, because he wasn't even a teacher there.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: He just came would come to just coach the shot put. Yeah,
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: And the first thing he said was if you don't
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: have a sense of humor, you're not gonna do well
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: on this team. So we would fucking bust joke around,
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: bust balls all the time. Whatever. And I'm not a
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: very serious person. So sophomore year comes around, try to
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: get on the team again. I got cut sophomore year
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: and the guy said I joked around too much and
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: he coming for that. I was like this, So yeah,
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: I got cut from fucking shot put. I got cut
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: from shot put.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: For being too funny, not for.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: Being too fighting, just for trying to be too funny.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: I can't say I was too funny.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: When how did you get the name Glenny Balls?
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: So I don't really know. Me and my friends just
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: like came up with it randomly one day, and I think, so,
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: I think it's a mix of Goodfellas and Entourage subconsciously
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: being in my brain in Goodfellas, you know the tracking
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: scene of Good Fellas where they're going through the whole
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: restaurant and showing everybody. They say one guy's name is
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: Sally Balls. And then in Entourage when Billy Walsh has
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: his when Billy Walsh starts a porn he's a porn director.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: His porn director nickname is Wally Balls. So I think,
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: just subconsciously through that, I thought of Glenny Balls.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: So you started. This is self proclaimed. This is self proclaimed.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like I I got like a horse racing account,
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: like before I even got hired at work, and like
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: my us name on there, just made it Glenny Balls.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: It's just that's just that's I mean, thank god, thank
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: god that I did because trust me, like if you're
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: the guy at my interview with Dave, I'm walking out,
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: walking out of the interview, and you.
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: Gotta tell the whole story though, because you told it
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: to me yesterday about how that happened.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's a what a horrifying story. It's my
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: heart beats every time I say it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: With the context of going in the interview with.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: Day, just how I got hired. So I got hired
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: when it was like five years ago, was late August twenty.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Sixteen, And let's put your head back on.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: Sorry, I've shitty hair. I know I canna tell him,
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: but I know, Jesus Christ, I mean, I'm no fucking Caleb.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I know I got shitty hair.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: That's a kid show man.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: But so I got how I like five years ago.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: It was late August. I remember, it was lame in
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: bed one night and Erica treats out that we need
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: New York interns, that they're moving to New York from Boston.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: So I instantly lay in my bed, I fucking replied quickly,
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: And I'm emailing Erica. At least I thought as Erica
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: was emailing Erica a Barsol Sports. It really wasn't Erica.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: It was like our manager, our office manager, Brett, great guy,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: shout out. I haven't seen him in a while, and
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: he was one of like doing like setting up the interviews. Obviously,
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: I don't know why YIP actually thought Erica was the
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: one like emailing interns. But so I going for an
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: intern interview. This was September sixteen, twenty sixteen. Got the interview,
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: thank god, and I have no idea. Once again, I
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: still think I'm emailing Erica. So I think this is
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: a full blown business interview, Like I wore like a
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: button down shirt and.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: You're looking good.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: You're ready to get the known.

  Speaker 1: I don't just fans, not that you didn't look good,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: but you're trying.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember I did a one of the things
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: I wrote in my breast it was that I did
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: like the blazing challenge at Buffalo Wild Wings. So then
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: they wrote back wear the blazing shirt with and the
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: I wore butN down over that. So I ready for
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: the day. And this was what I actually chanswer to
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: a school in the city. So I was going to
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: a business school in Manhattan on twenty third and Lexington
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Baruk and I had a miserable schedule out of Tuesday
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: Thursday seven am, Monday Wednesday seven am. But then the
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: Monday Wednesday class would have like a twenty minute meet
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: up on Fridays from eleven to eleven twenty and my
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: whole life, my mom has been off on Friday. She
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: doesn't work on Fridays, so she would drive me to
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: the city, wait in the car. I'd go to the
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: twenty minute thing and we were just get a nice
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: wonderful lunch from manattan somewhere, you know, maybe a little
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: cats as Delis and mother son time. So she drove
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: me that day to college, to school or whatever. Then
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: drove me to the office. Let's meet out, and I'm like, listen,
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: drive away, don't stay here, drive away. So I go
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: up there to the interview. It was so so so scary,
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: our new office office. You've been in a new office, right,
• 8:54

• 8:56
  Speaker 4: You get off the elevator, You're just in the mix.

  Speaker 4: with Fiderberg and I freaked the funk out because I
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: was a big Barstol fan. I had the Barcel flag sweatshirt.
• 9:04

• 9:38
  Speaker 4: he texted Caleb, just the next guy you see, asking

  Speaker 1: So is Caleb still your boss?
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: I guess in a way theoretically, I mean during football
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: season to do a sunny conversation, I'm just on the
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: road with him all the time. So I guess the
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: retically he's the boss.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: What's it been? What's it? What was it like?
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Like, you know, you were nervous around them meeting him
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: for the interviews and stuff like that, Like, how's that?
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: How's your mental on him? An idea of him shifted
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: since working with him? Oh he's a great guy.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: But he's me and him. Me and him are very separate,
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: lives on the road, you know. Yeah, Like he likes
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: to hang out, he likes to golf and I like
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: to full systems go. But I mean he's wonderful.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: He's you go out on your own.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's one thing the Sunny Cars taught me. I've
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: I have learned to go out alone. I've learned to
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: just the right places though, Like I could go and
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: whenever we go to Miami, I stay in Delray Beach
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: because I could go out in Delray Beach. I met
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: people there. I met people here. I could go out here,
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: like I can't go out alone in like Miami. You
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: can't go to eleven alone.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: I did go to eleven alone, like a month ago.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: I went to eleven alone and I was it was
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: so intimidating. He was so scary. Thank god. Me and
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: Caleb no one of the Uh, thank god, Sorry I'm
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: saying thank you. I like Jesus. Okay, I went to
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: Catholic High school and uh, I know one of the director,
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: the director of operations. He like showed me around, So
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: that was okay. At least I basically shadowed him for
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: the night, which was pretty cool. But that's a place
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: you can't go alone. I can't go to a club,
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: loan do a bar, a little hockey talk feel whenever
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: I'm in Scottsdale, a little rusty spur saloon. It's like
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: the side of this bus. There, I could go out alone.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: But Miami, that's not place.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: And Caleb likes be in his hotel room. And then hill.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: Golf, Yeah, you just such a golf, like as a
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: golf you think.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: He's gonna be a pro. Yeah, I think so too.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: I do we Uh, this is a this is obviously
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: an intro, right now, I gotta get yeah, yeah, let's
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: get onto the good stuff. Did the tight are fucking
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: eight and two victory Monday?
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Right now?
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: It's victory Wednesday as you guys are listening, Uh, thank god.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Their kicker sucks, man, I mean it's like they brought
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: the kid from Nebraska up to out to New Orleans
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: and you just shanked.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Two extra points? Like yeah, what point?
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: Like you're you're Sometimes I do feel bad for the kickers,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: I really do. I'm like, man, I bet there's a
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: lot that they got there that's going on in there nogging,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: Like they do have some stressful, stressful times. But that's
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: if you're missing like forty fifty yarders and game winners
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: type shit, you're missing extra points. Like if you're Sean Payton,
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: is it out of the question when the kicker runs
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: off to the sideline like number one, nobody should dap
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: you up, Like everybody DAPs up and still head butts
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: hey my bad man, Like yeah, everybody's tight, Like, bro,
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: make the fucking kick. And if you're a Sean Payne
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: and he runs over, like, is he could he potentially
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: just look at the kicker and point out him and
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: say hey, fuck you, and that'd be okay.
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: You definitely could. I don't know if it would be okay,
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: but he could definitely do that.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I would be so I would.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: I was almost pissed for the Saints, like, no, I'm
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: stoked at the Boys one, but I'm sitting there watching
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: due miss field goals.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I'm like, how are you missing your extra points?
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: I don't even know if I could be a kicker,
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: solely based off the awkwardness. If you said you could
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: be on kicker right now, I don't know if I'd
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: do it. That must be such an awkward feeling. And
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: go back on the Boston you're the one that missed
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: the kicks, and shit.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Bro, no doubt because they lose. They lose twenty three
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: twenty one. My man misses two extra points, they're having
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: to go for two.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: There, you know, wouldn't happen. The Boys would have adjusted.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: But based on this score, they're winning the game if
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: they make their kicks.
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: The misses weren't even in like high pressure situations. Man,
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: right whether hit the kick, it's.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Routine, classic New Orleans Nebraska case right here, you're losing
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: because you can't special teams.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Uh, Washington football team beats the Bucks.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: You said, what about Brady?
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Is Tom Brady? Why his father time catching up to
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Tom Brady?
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: Hold the phone.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: You're a big time Brady.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know. I was at the Titans game. Yeah,
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: today I was had a few beveragers. I didn't even
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: look at the scores. The football team beat the Bucks.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: To Glen Glenny balls with this on Wednesday, just finding
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: out that, uh, the Washington football team beats the Bucks
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: twenty nine the night football tail to the Boys. Bro, Yeah,
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: they beat the Bucks. Heinikey is arguably a better quarterback
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: than Tom Brady.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: What the fuck, dude?
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: I feel shocked right now.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, at post game, you know, Brady, I saw PFT
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: tweet like passing the torch and it's it's Tom Brady
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: and Heinekey like hugging. That is wild though, Like I
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: don't know, I feel like you can't panic, Like this
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: stuff happens with any Tom Brady team.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Everybody starts is he washed?
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Is he?
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: This is he that? I don't know.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: I'm scared to say anything because you know he's gonna
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: go off. You know he's gonna get hot late in
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: the year.
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: They play the Giants next week too, and that's oh yeah,
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: they're gonna go.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: I think they're gonna go Old Testament on the Giants.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: I would venture to make a responsible wager on the
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: Possel Sports book.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah on, there you go, there you go.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: On the tap of Buccaneers, because that's gonna be a beat.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, we suck, We're really bad. Weren't coming off
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: a bie week though, you know who Giants. I'm a
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: Giants fan.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Oh I'm sorry.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: That is tough.
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: By the way, Can I just say, I know we
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: talked about it with Darius. I think it's crazy that
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: he thinks that Super Bowl six years old counts. I
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: had a Super Bowl with the Giants I was I
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: was fifteen, so I guess that's different. But six years
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: old that I.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: Will say, just because it was Darius Rutger, I was
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: like trying to stay a little more reserved. But I
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: thought the same thing, like, I don't count my I
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: don't count those super Bowls with the Cowboys when I.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Was imagine you quite like once again, I literally love.
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: He's been one of my fair people on the planet.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: After the two hours we just spat with him. But uh,
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: he said he started being in a Doplin Salmon he
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: was five, and then they won Super Bowl the next
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: two years. That's it. Those are two super Bowls. Like,
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: what don't you want to see what happen?
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: What a bandwagon?
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah I was gonna call a bandwagon fan.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay, But obviously he's riding with him now,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: so that's the good thing.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: No, I've seen him tweet about the Doplins like NonStop.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: He's a huge Doplins fan. Yeah, and they but yeah,
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: his pre ten Let me tell you what, what a.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Tiny zero to ten? Like he can't you can't necessary?
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: What the time to get your first full season is
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: the undefeated season.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: What a time to get involved with the Dolphins, dude?
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: And then the Raiders. Bro the Raiders. Yeah, that was
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: a tough loss. That was a tough loss to the Chiefs.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: I'm not really sure what to say about the loss either,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: Like I don't know if it's the Chiefs or it
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: always sucks because I know, like following some Raiders fans there,
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: they're getting so they get so pissed off because it
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: seems like this is the point of the year when
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: it happens or something starts to go hey wire and
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: they crumble a.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Little bit Jacksons.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Is a good point. I will say.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: The Chiefs have been winning games and Mahomes have been
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: playing better. Did you see Mahomes the way he dapped
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: up Jackson a couple of weeks ago. He shunned him,
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: shunned him. Jackson would even make eye contact. Yeah, can
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: we make a big deal about it and not actually
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: be a real deal. Yes, But also we can read
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: between the lines and Jackson seems like he wears.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: His heart on his sleeve.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: Jackson's got to retire, Yeah, I got it. No longer
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: be allowed, It's easy.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: What what game was that too? What game were they at?
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: They still barely won that game that was against the Giants,
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: mother than in football, Yeah they didn't. They didn't, you guys.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: But yeah, he dabs up Jackson. But like that's we
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: were talking about a couple of weeks ago.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: But like, look at my man in the in those
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: TikTok videos that are being made.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: That video makes me sad. I don't even want to
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: look at it.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, clearly there's a conversation that happened. Okay, we
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: we can't. We can't say that's facts, but in our
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: universe we can kind of say that's it's pretty clear
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: that a conversation happened because he DAPs them up and
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: you don't see any of the TikTok videos anymore, which
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Is the right move.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: That video right there with them at the bar, that's
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: that's a man that needs a vacation away. He needs
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: a solo vacation, and like, yeah.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: He's like, give me out of this fucking life.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: Dude, that's speaking of get out, Like that's a that's
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: a it's a get out video right there.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: He's just sitting there.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: He send help me.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Out of here. Yeah, send help.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Nebraskata bye week best three win two by week seven,
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: lost team in the country. I saw somebody tweet that,
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: and I agree wholeheartedly with that. It'll be interesting to
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: see how they play out. They they play at Wisconsin
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: next week. Their number nineteen, so I'm sure they'll give
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: them a run for their money and squander at the
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: end of the game. They won't squander it. The rest
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: will fucking squander it late in the game. Because I'm
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: still pissed about that PI call that they didn't call
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: on Ohio State a couple weeks ago. Michigan beat Penn
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: State twenty one to seventeen. I don't really know what
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: to make of that, because it's kind of like Penn
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: State they had hype at the beginning of the year.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: Who I really want to talk about Iowa. I won
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: from two number two in the country, and now they're
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: like a twenty Now they're like in the twenties or
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: some shit like that. I do hope we win that game,
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: but as I said last week's episode, I'm a little cynical.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: You kind of hope that Nebraska carries this torch of
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: the best three win team in the country for.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: The rest of the year.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Scott Frost has already coming back. It's already known. So
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: what are we fighting for now?
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: I don't even know. It's tough.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: It's confirmed, yeah, because he Scott. He fired four offensive
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: coaches and he's coming back. I think they restructured his deal.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: I'm sure the buyout is now smaller to where if
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: he has another bed year next year, he's probably next
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: year he's gonna have to He's gonna have to win.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: He's gonna have to put up.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: I was at eighteen now after they win last week
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: against I don't even.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Who was who they play?
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Who is in Minnesota?
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: Have no idea, But dude, how about wake Forest at thirteen?
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: They got a big win this week wake Forest?
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Dude, ACC they're the best team in the ACC right now,
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: which how much does that say?
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: Nothing? Honestly, AHC should be the AC this year. But
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: still it's crazy.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, wisconstant surprise of people who they played?
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Was at Minnesota? Barely beat Minnesota? Like in Minnesota's not
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: a good football team?
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: Didn't it beat Nebraska?
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: Jake just coming in like I'm trying to like clearly,
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: I'm smiling up here, making a little joke, and you
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: gotta fucking come in there with that negative energy.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: But back on Iowa, Ioways gotta be cursed from when
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: was it they beat Penn State and they were ranked
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: higher than Penn State and rush.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Their yea, that's a rush their own field. This podcast
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: is sponsored by Better Help Online Therapy. Life is full
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: of stressor stressors. It doesn't matter who you are, what
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: you have, what you're doing, what you have going on,
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: your life is probably stressful. Just like everybody else's I know,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: for myself being involved, being in this little this little
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: wheel of what's coming next for me, the unknown. There's
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: a little bit of fear and anxiety that creeps in
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: at times. And you may not be feeling down and
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: out or depressed or anything like that, or like you're
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: at a total loss, but if your stress is high,
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: your temper is shorter than usual, or even if you're
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: starting to feel strained in any of your relationships, you
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: could probably use the chance to unload, unload the stress
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: and get it out. Talk to someone who's completely unbiased
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: about your life, someone who isn't going to judge you
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: or take sides on anything. When there are things you
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: can't tell anyone or feel like you can unload to
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: family and friends, you need to unload it somewhere somehow,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: and that's where therapy can be very helpful for you.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Better help is customize online therapy that offers video, phone
• 22:01

• 22:06
  Speaker 3: want to or you don't feel comfortable doing that. It's
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: much more affordable than in perth in person. It's much

  Speaker 3: communicating with your therapists and under forty eight hours unload
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: the stressors and get some unbiased feedback. You'd be pretty
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: surprised at what you might gain from it, and also
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: see if it's for you. There's a good quote I
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: always like to lean on. It's hard to read the

  Speaker 6: in mad in two thousand and four, where he was
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: like under to believe the best player in the game,
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: he used to never plays himself. He used to plays
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: like Peyton Manning and pocket passers.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: I can believe that. I can believe that. Yeah, oh
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: yeah me included.
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: Good.
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: Good for him honestly respect to him, because those guys
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: are the war Were you playing a Madden online to
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: the randoms you play with Michael Vick or Kyler? Fuck you?
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: But back in the day when it was oh four Madden,
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: it was you had to play man up. You had
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: to play like man up two man or man up
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: three deep and have somebody spy the quarterback.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: I still don't know how to do it. You gotta
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: just play with the spies. That's also could I say,
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: one quick thing, you had.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: To pick a D lineman too, because you needed your
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: backers everybody else in coverage.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: One quick thing? You should have be allowed to play Madden.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Why you shouldn't be allowed? I don't play, but why
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: because I football player should not be allowed to play Madden.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: It's literally not fair. And my buddy the reason I
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: like w Forest. My buddy played went to wake Forest.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: He was like a fifth string quarterback for four years,
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: but he still like knows football. Like playing him in
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: Madden is like not fair because he gets to he
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: understands the defenses, and shit, he knows how to actually
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: do stuff. I don't know how to do stuff.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what what do you mean?
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: Was alliance to playing rukie mode, playing rookie mode, you
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: feel good about to play, you just should be allowed
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: to play. It's not fair, like you know what, when
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: to Spy went to blitz, I'm like, what he's a
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: calling out plays? It's not Yeah, but some dudes, some
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: dudes like like yourself. If you're really good at Madden,
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: there's party that wants to play football players at first,
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: so you I'm assuming you've lost to some.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Guys because at first you're probably like, oh, you all
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: show them. I'll show this football player that I can
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: beat them at the're kind of their own game.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: It's literally not fair. They haven't unfair advantage of the game.
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: It shouldn't be a lot you play football. No Madden
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: for you in my world.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Damn.

  Speaker 1: a phenomenal interview.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: I felt like, yeah, I mean that was that was scary.
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: That was a timidator. I mean, you're sitting here with
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: Darish Rucker. It's fucking Dirish Truck.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Mister wagon wheel, Mister I did my best not to
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: talk about.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: A whole lot exactly. Mean for me, it's mister Hooty
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: to HOODI is like literally my favorite band. Like I
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: was very shuck. It's that you were told not to
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: call him Hoody. I was to say, said, don't call
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: him Hoodia. I didn't call him whody, But I mean, yeah,
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: it was. That was a timpating I don't get starstruck
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: much that that was definitely a starstruck one.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: I want to say.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: It was just the energy too, like he's got the
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: sports agency, Like he's got the negotiator vibe too, you
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: know what I mean. And then we went toes on
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: the Nebraska South Carolina. Everybody will get to listen. You said,
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: it's a status sports argument, Like the people who listen
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: to this, to this pot we got into Braska fans
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: out there, They're gonna be yelling at the radio.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: It was a great argument, but the context of the
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: argument was as bad as we're sitting here arguing Tennessee football,
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: Nebraska football, South Carolina football, and Saint John's basketball. That's
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: about the saddest four groups of colleges you can name.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: Right now.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what that we're proud. We're proud we
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: put on for our squads. Anything I need to touch
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: on that people might not know about Darius.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: Rutger, Oh, honestly, freaking the I had no idea about that.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: Frank Sinatra's birthday party, that's.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: I should listen. I was truly the peak I need
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: to get out in front of this. Now I know
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: who Freddie Mercury is. Of course I gotta get out
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: in front of this now. It was it was I
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: was trying to think of the question I was asking him.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know what equestrians was. I did not know
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: what that was. I legitimately thought like, it sounds like
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: a video game. I know it wasn't a video game,
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: but I'm just saying that's what it sounded like. I
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: did not know what a questrian championship was.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: Like.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: That's how much Darius and I were arguing about South
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Carolina Nebraska. They apparently are equestrian champions and we're bowling
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: champions and women's volleyball, which thank god, nobody fact checked
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: me on the best volleyball team in the country.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: We are top five all the time. Though, we're gonna
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: make tease.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: You should we should? You should make T shirts? Why not?
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: With the boys?
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: Why not?
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: What do they call them? They call them the black Shorts. Yeah,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: I think the one volleyball team is like the black
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: shorts to the black shirts. No, he said, yeah, that's
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: off the top. Everybody listening, that's off the top. Uh
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: still playing ball. Still playing ball. Yeah, still playing ball.
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: I'm dabbling with a lot more of the thought of
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: just going all energy, focusing on busting with the boys
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: and just calling it a day because it's a weird vibe.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: Sitting in the middle, sitting in the gray area each
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: and every week, because I get to get to let
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: everybody know, to give everybody some perspective.
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: I got.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: I go at like a week at a time, Like
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: the weekend comes, I'm like, all right, Monday's coming the
• 27:53

• 27:59
  Speaker 3: ultimately didn't end up working out, But Monday always comes up,
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: and I find myself kind of like, do I really
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: want to go play?
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Do I really want to actually go play?
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: Or do I like the idea more of playing than
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: you know, actually playing the game of ball now being
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: like a thirty two year old and feeling it every day.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: But yeah, right now, still playing ball. People were curious
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: last week talking about since Ronan Sas dropped, if that

• 30:31
  Speaker 4: don't know. Yeah, it's and sometimes Caleb doesn't yes crazy questions.

  Speaker 3: almost know what you're getting with somebody like Caleb.
• 30:43

  Speaker 4: In one of the Walker's songs, he says, I got
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: a main bitch, a mistress, a couple of girlfriends. I'm
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: so hood rich. Yeah, He's like, you're out it on yourself,

• 32:01
  Speaker 3: throughout all of these years of making music? Do you
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: still feel the same burn or like maybe the flame
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: burns a little bit differently.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: It burns differently, but it's still there. You still want
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: to you know, I'm still trying to make albums and
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: trying to, you know, just make music that people want
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: to listen to. And it's still all I've ever wanted
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: to do since I was a kid was playing music.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: So that was like four all I've ever wanted to do.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: And to be where I am right now and to
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: still be able to do it on the stage I
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: get to do it on is unbelievable. So I'm always
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: burning the fire trying to do something.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you're going on that the intimate tour, right, Yeah?
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: What made you want to do something like an intimate tour?
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: Like get back to doing something a little more grassroots style,
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: something like brought you a lot of joy back.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: In the day.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, we did you know who do? He went
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: pretty much straight from the clubs to the arenas, and
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: we didn't really get to play a lot of those
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: theaters that are around town, those old theaters that are
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: around town, like the Beacon and places like that and
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: the Orpheum Theater, and we just didn't play them. And
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: so we were out doing festivals and and everything. It
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: was great, and we I wanted to go out and
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: do something just different and something small and some intimate.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: Don't you don't have to worry but ticket sales. Let's
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: just go out and yeah, play some songs and have
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: a good time. And so we decided to do like
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: twelve thirteen dates in the winter and theaters we got
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: I was really excited about. So it worked out great.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: With when you were saying, like you went from like
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: clubs to arenas and stuff, is you guys fast tracked
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: pretty quickly, like essentially got to skip some of these
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: things that you're going back and doing now. Is what
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: was like the moment or like what were certain situations
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: that happened with Hoody and the Blowfish to where you
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: guys fast tracked all the way to selling out arenas.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: Uh, you know, we had been a band for like
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: seven years playing clubs and uh, a moment that that
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: had just changed. The moment that changed it all was
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: when we did Letterman. Yeah, the night we did Letterman
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: that Friday, we couldn't you know, we couldn't get anybody
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: to play our song outside of the Carolinas and Georgia
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: and and we did Letterman and that Monday everybody was
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: at it. It really changed our lives.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: Over how'd you guys get on Letterman?
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's a great story. Uh. He was driving home
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: one night after filming the show, and the guy at
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: not to see when I'm just an ali. But the
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: guy I can't remember the big the big rock station
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: in New York was. He was one of those DJs
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: that just whatever he wanted, and so he heard hold
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: My Hand. He wanted to play it on the show.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: And Dave was driving home and that's the only time
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: the guy ever played the song at this point, and
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: Dave was driving home and the guy played hold My Hand,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: and the legends that he pulled on the side of
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: the road and called his booking agent and said, I
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: want this is like a Tuesday, and said I want
• 34:35

  Speaker 2: We thought, I mean, we were such a Lettering fans.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: I mean we that was a religion for us. Watching

  Speaker 2: Dave and and we I thought we thought our advantage

• 34:58
  Speaker 2: we thought he was joking and he's like, no, let
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: him in with you guys on Friday and the messed
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: up thing. We had our biggest show in our hometown
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: that same night, and so we're like a little worried,
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: but uh, our label stepped up and said, we'll get
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: you a plane.
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: So they did both we did.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Letterman got on the plane, landed in Columbia with a
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: six car police escort to take us to the show.
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: We were like, oh my god, though you know you're
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: living as you started that story and saying ahead, I'm like,
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: there's no way he'd played that show that night. That's crazy.
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: That's what year was that.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: Ain't nobody in sex back then. Ain't nobody spread the
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: word with you gotta get to a landline. Hey baby,
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: we're going on letters.
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: Honestly, want to talk about vibes, talk about immaculate vibes.
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: Imagine being on that plane top five.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: That was a pretty awesome ride for us. It was
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: just us and I think one of our two of
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: our managers, one of our managers, and it was surreal.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: We just played Letterman Man. We had just going to
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: a hometown show.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Truly, I know, I know, Man, you just gotta be
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: writing Cloud nine the whole wayte being like, hey, boys,
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: like we might start taking off, And sure enough.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: That's what it was like, because I mean grunge was
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: king when this was happening, you know, and here comes
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: this little pop rock band from South Carolina telling everybody
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: to hold my hand, you know. And so it was
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: really a fight for us to even Like there was
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: even one guy at our label who right now, if
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: you were talking to me, would claim that he signed us.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: I've heard him, but but the.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Ya if I'm that guy too, you know, I found
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: them boys.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: He actually went to our label of our he went
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: he went to our label president and told him that
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: if if if Atlantic put Cracked Review out, they would
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: be the laughing stock of music if you put it out. Yeah, Oh,
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: it's crazy.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: It's so It's just it's so interesting here, and especially
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: Number one saying ninety four.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: I'm like five years old in ninety four, you know
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: what I mean?
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, and you're still like I was old and
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: drunk in ninety four.
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: Were there moments like with HOODI and the Blowfish. Obviously
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: there's a plethora of moments, but were there certain moments
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: that beat that initial like going going to Letterman taking
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: off that stand out to you.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I tell you a moment that we'll never forget. We
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: were the Grammys and we figured we had to get
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Best New Artists, and when you're selling records, we had
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: to give us best New Artist. So we don't get that.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: But you guys, you probably don't remember, but that's on Waterfall.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: But TLC was just massive that year, and so we
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: thought we thought it was gonna win. There was up
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: for six Grammys. We thought it was gonna win everything.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: And so they come up to the Best Vocal Performance by
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Duo on Group and we know it's our We just
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: won the Best New Artists and so we've cloud nine.
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: We got a Grammy. You can never take that away
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: from us, you know. And we sit down because we
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: have to. We think, you know, Waterfall is gonna win.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: And we sit there and kiss and make up for
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: the first time since the seventies for the first time
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: since the kiss, and Tupac's secure walk out to give
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: this award, and so we're freaking out just because it's
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: kissing Tupac. Yeah, kiss is one of the reasons I'm
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: sitting there. Yeah, it was like, this is freaking Geanu

  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you're freaking out, and they walk out
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: and they do the whole you know, nomination and everything.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: And Tupac opened the envelope and looked at the camera
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: and said, my boys, Hooty and the Blowfish. And when
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: he said that, that's a moment that will never I mean,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: that was awesome.
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: And then you have to walk up there and accept
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: walking seven hugging.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we hugged everybody, Yeah, hugging him tight.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Trying to get away.

• 40:29
  Speaker 2: was the first time you got on the stage of
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: the Garden. It was it was religious, It really was.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's like the first time I played the Apollo.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: It was just it's religious. I mean, you can't believe
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: you're getting to play these rooms that everybody plays it.
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: And I mean if you get everybody who is somebody
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: plays the Garden and you know, and you're not if
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: you're not playing the Garden, you're so much.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: Man, that is nuts.

  Speaker 3: Dude.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Oh it was great, Like you're literally a rock star
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: at this moment.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, with your band too, like a group of guys
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: because you guys are playing what what I read you
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: guys were playing in a basement.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: It's a fraternity house or something like that.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: We played tons of Frattorney House and we were a
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: band for seven years before we got a record deal.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, just playing every show. There was a couple
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: of years we played like two hundred and fifty shows
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: or something, and.
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: How did you guys all know each other? Like, how'd
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: you guys in college? Just in college and you guys
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: could compliment each other.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we were. We were living on the same dorm hall,
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: me and Mark, our guitar player, And it was one morning.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: I thought everybody was in class and we had those
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: prison showers, you know, yeah, just a bunch of shower right,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: And so I go in there and I just think
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: I'm the only person in the dorm hall. And so
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: I'm singing Billy Jewel's Honesty and I'm singing it to
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: the top of my lungs. I mean, I'm really belting
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: it out. And you know, you got the great sound
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: in that back.
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: It's acoustic in those locker room shower we call locker
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: room showers, not prison showers.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: But yeah, but you know.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: Then but uh, And I walked out to go to
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: my room and Mark came up to me and said,
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: was that you singing? And I was like, yeah, that
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: was me, And you said I play guitar. I was like, okay,
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: let's get let's get together later see if we know
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: any same songs. And the end of that day we did,
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: and we knew a bunch of the same songs and
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: we started playing together that day.
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: And just imagine somebody comes in like, hey, boys, in

  Speaker 3: seven years, you guys are gonna, yeah, be on a
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: letter man, you guys are gonna be on private jets. Yeah,
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: singing naked in a shower exactly.
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: Seven years or so. That's crazy that that's a long time.
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: It's a long time.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: It's a long time.
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: Honestly, though, let me ask you this for let's say
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: a month right now, if you could go back to
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: those like first couple of years just touring down in
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: the South and whatnot, that's what I feel like. The
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: more money, more problems like that was probably the last time.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: People always ask me, I get this all the time.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: And you guys miss you miss when you guys with
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: the biggest fan of the world. No, I missed when
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: we were it was us against the world, playing the Winds,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: Ebber the Night and Mad Monk Tomorrow and you know,
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: and then having to go up to Raleigh and play
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: you know, the brewery. Those were the days.
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: Man, that's awesome. And what was that just struck driving
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: everywhere a vand that's awesome.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: The four of us and uh one another guy driving
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: in the van really.
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: Why why do you think that you missed those days?
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: Because I feel the same way. Like sometimes I'm like,
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: you know, people are oh, do you miss like the
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: best days of this and that, and you you kind
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: of go back and like, man, you know, I wish
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: I was back to where you're like grinding through high
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: school or like trying to find a way to get
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: a scholarship, or when you're in college, you're like, man,
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: if I could just get on a practice squad, or
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: if I could just do this, and you're kind of
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: putting these processes together, Why do you feel like you
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: missed those days of traveling just with the boys, Because
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: because obviously in those days, you're like, man, if we
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: can just catch our break one day, we'll get we'll
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: make it. Then you finally make it, and now you
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: actually perspective as you're missing the old days more.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: And I think those days, the only thing that was
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: really important was the band. It was the four you know,
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: the four of us were making it. I mean, you know,
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: I had girlfriends and everything, but you know they weren't important.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: And now you know, once you make it and you
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: still get success and you're start getting married and having
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: kids and everything just priority change and things aren't as important.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: You know, the music is important, but it's not as
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: important because youve got you know, kids, and you got
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: your wife and you got all that stuff. So it's
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: becomes a different animal. But I remember how dedicated we
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: were and how how close we were. That's the thing
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: I missed the most. We were so close. It was
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: one of those things where we go on the road
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: for two weeks. You know, you come home, you drop
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: everybody off, and then an hour later you're calling each
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: other to meet up and go drinking that night. So
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: I missed those days. But you know, I'm not gonna
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: complain about these days.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: I'm just always intrigued and interested, like when people have
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: those kinds of answers, because obviously you think back on
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: probably characteristics you guys all had individually that your band
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: had with you know, grit, shout out, chevy, grit, determination, reliable.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: That's actually one of the things that always really gets me,
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: makes me laugh, is no matter what we do, the
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: second the four of us get back together, we fall
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: right into the same thing. I mean, it's shocking to
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: me how it's the high and everything falls right back
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: into what it was and we'd go do what we do,
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: and you know, it's it's just it's what it is
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: with the four of us.
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: And like you said, like you wouldn't trade your life,
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: like we wouldn't trade in this stuff. But when you
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: do fall into those to those folds of like getting
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: the boys back together, you're just like, man, like, this
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: is actually what we enjoyed the most, Like all that
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: other stuff.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: It's not.
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: It's not like it doesn't mean nothing, but you're like,
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: you know, you put it on this pedestal and then
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: once you get there, like everything else, you're like, oh, man, this.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: Is the stuff we love the most about it.
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: I mean for me it was the shows were important
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: and great, don't get me know. That was you know,
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: getting the go play, but like it was everything else
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: with the four of us. I mean, just how funny
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: everybody was. The music I got turned on too, that
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: I would have never heard, just riding around in the van,
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: you know, just busting each other's balls and and and
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: keeping each other in line and having every all the nastayers,
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: all the people tell us, you know, you can't make
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: it out of South Carolina, all the people saying, you know,
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: grun just king you guys are never gonna get a
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: record deal. It's gonna you know, all that stuff we had,
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: We follow all that stuff, and I look at it now.
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: And you know, all right, yeah, oh yeah, man, what
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: when you guys separated? I don't know a whole lot
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: about that. So maybe you can teach me or educate
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: me on how you guys separate. It wasn't just because
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: you were gonna people were gonna do solos and stuff
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: like that. Was there a little bit of a breakup
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: was It wasn't really a breakup per se.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: I'll be honest with If this hadn't happened, we just
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: you know, we we've been playing theaters this week, and
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: we'd still be playing. I'd be playing with but uh,
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: one of the guys in the band just came up
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: one day. We were on tour. We toured every summer.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: It was like a job, was what we did, you know.
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: And he came up one day and called a band meeting,
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: which we never have band meetings. Then it goes to
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: my buss and goes we got a band, and so
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: we go in and he said he didn't want to
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: be in a touring band anymore, and we uh and
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: we are.
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: Because of other aspirations, okay, other things in his life.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: Other things in his life, and he just didn't want
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: to do anymore. The four of us are abandoned. We
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: can't we couldn't just go okay, We'll just get somebody
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: else to play. That's just not what we do. And
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: so I remember when he said it. I just thought,
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: I guess I'm gonna go to Nasville now, because I've
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: always talked about doing it, but there was never really
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: any time to do it or think about it because
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: were always doing hooty stuff. And I just thought I'd
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: come to Nashville, and you see what happens.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: How nervous were you?
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: Iant nervous because I don't think anything was going to happen.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: All I really cared was I wanted to make a
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: country record. I would have been happy doing it at
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: our studio in Charleston with my friends mm hm, you know,
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: and my manager at the time, Doc McGee, who's just
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: a legend in our business. I just I mentioned it
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: to him. But I wasn't even looking for a record deal,
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: just because I didn't think I could get one. I mean,
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: who's going to give the black pop singer Solf kind
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: of country music deal because back then there was anybody
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: who look at me on country radio. And he got
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: me a record deal. And once I got the record deal,
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: I started talking to Mike Dungan, who's the president of
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: university who signed me, and he was really wanted this
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: to work. And I knew if I gave him a record,
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: it was going to work. And you know, like he said,
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: I gave him a record. Damn.
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: What was it like being a black man going into
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: the country world.
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: I did. I did. They didn't think I would do it,
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: but I said I would do it. I did a
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: radio tour. I went to like one hundred and ten
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: radio stations like three or four day.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: What do you do on these radio station tours.
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: Go in and you play a song for them and
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: their lounge, or you play a song on the radio,
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: or you go in and you talk. If you're lucky,
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: they'll put you on the radio and play your single.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: You know, so you're not even guaranteed to go on
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: the radio that day.
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: No, usually go on all these radio stations like let's
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: hope they freaking put it.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, And it was so oh I'm out there
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: for a couple of months one hundred and ten, and dude,
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: I would go, there was in these three dudes, and
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: I love these dudes like that right now, they're my
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: they are my biggest supporters. Like if I need good
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: number one, they'll play it two times in a row. Accidentally,
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: you know, he's got a big supporters of my but uh,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: and I respect them so much for this. They said
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: it the exact same way. All three They said, I
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: don't think my audience, this is four to fifteen years ago.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: I don't think my audience will accept the black country
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: scene was what I was told. And they were like,
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna play it. I want to see you know,
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: I'll play because I think it's a good song as
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: a country song, and I you know, but I don't
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: think they're gonna they're gonna accept it.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: And I was like, wow, yeah, how are you reacting
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: to hear something like that?
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: Like you're pretty probably like you know, you're probably surprised,
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: but also at the same time, you're like, of course
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: get it.
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: It's yeah, they're telling.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Me that you don't have to when you really think
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: about it, I thought, you don't have to tell me.
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: You could see it. You know, it had been twenty
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: five years since Charley Pride had his last hit. In
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: twenty five years, nobody had a top twenty five. That
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: was you know, Treny Triggs and all those you know,
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: Recy Palmer and all these people, all these black countries
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: things I knew of. I thought one guy would have
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: slipped up and had a top twenty five. And yeah,
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: no one even had a top twenty five since Charlie Pride,
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: and that that was crazy to me, you know, because
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: I honestly, I know, I have a lot of naivity
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: to me, and I don't see things sometimes because I
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: didn't think about the black thing. I just wanted to
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: make country music right, And then people start talking about it,
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: and then I start researching and you realized, wow, it's
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: really been twenty five years and the only person who
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: did it before me was Drawing. You know, that's crazy.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: So how's your mental shifting? Like when when this stuff's
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: happening or when it starts getting played on the radio.
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: You getting good feedback, getting good feedback?
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: You know, I think that the Hootie thing, as much
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: as it hurt me, it hurt me helped me because
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: people knew me and my reputation and and so they
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: were giving it a shot and started playing, working and working,
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: and then when don't Think I Think. When my first
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: single don't Think, I Don't Think about It went to
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: number one, was when you could see there was something different.
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: And then the second song went to number one, and
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: then the third song went to number one, and that's
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: when I think other labels were like, you know, we
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: were wrong. They are accepted. That's when you know King
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: gets his deal and Jimmy it's his deal, and you
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: know things start to change a little.
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because, uh, the only real thing I know in
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: like the history of music and bands breaking up in
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: a solo guy going to do his own thing. Who's
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: the Who's the lead guy? I sound ridiculous right now?
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: The lead guy with Queen do the Mover?
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Freddie Mercury, Sorry, I know terrible right now, he's.
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: Got a podcast that he said who's the lead?
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: When it's going in my head and I'm like, I
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: want to ask no question. Listen, I'm being vulnerable in
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: front of you guys right now. But anyway, watching the
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: movie Bohemian Rhapsody and kind of learning about the history
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: of Queen. When he breaks off and Freddy does his
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: own thing, he obviously doesn't have as much success as
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: he did when the band was together. You're now you
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: basically essentially made another career going off doing your thing solo.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: So did you ever were you ever nervous about going
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: on your own from that nature, because you're like, yeah,
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: I got I had some success from Hooty and the Blowfish,
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: but so did Freddy with Queen, but it didn't pay
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: off for him, and it's payoff for you. And you're
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: a black dude in country music bringing this stuff in
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: a in a country world.
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: I was once it really started, I was really nervous
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: because you there's, like you said, who leaves a band
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: that had that much success and actually has success and
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: not just that in a whole different genre. Yeah, man,
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: you know, and and especially going to the you know,
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: the they call what we call them carpetbaggers and country music.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: You know, those pop stars like you saw a flush
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: of it after I made it, like these big pop
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: names saying they're gonna make their country record, you know,
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: and country fans see through that harm. Yeah, And it's
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: been one of those things where I was worried about it,
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: but I really knew win or lose. You know, I
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: was going to get to make my record and I
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: had the label behind me, so I figured I had
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: a good chance to win. And if I if I,
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: if I delivered the music.
• 52:52
  Speaker 6: Today's world where like are we accept that artists are
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: more diverse than their musical taste, where they can kind
• 52:57
  Speaker 6: of cross genre and everything. Do you think that if
• 52:59
  Speaker 6: you came up with Hoody and the Blowfish now you
• 53:02
  Speaker 6: could have also done the country thing at the same time,
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: or do you think you still would have had to
• 53:05
  Speaker 6: kind of like graduate from that chapter.
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: Oh? I think if hood he came up right now,
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: we'd have to be a country band. We would have
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: to be I mean, there's there's no room for rock
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: and roll in pop, in the pop world at all.
• 53:18
  Speaker 4: I don't even know a band right now.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: I don't. I don't man skin and the only main
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: skin or whatever. And the only way to know because
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: I saw the Stones the other day.
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: With the Stones, the only band I could really name
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: off the top of my head that's like still playing,
• 53:30
  Speaker 4: that's on the come up is that credit Van VP band.
• 53:35
  Speaker 4: It's crazy, but like I really don't know any bands.
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: It's really not a thing.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: It's crazy to me to look at the music landscape
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: and to realize that rock and roll is dead because
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: for our lives growing up, rock and roll was king,
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: you know, it was, it was, And now you look
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: at it and there's not a rock band on pop station.
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: It's all urban and pop stuff. And you know the
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: tagal country song that crosses over, but it's crazy like
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: band like us, like us, kind of CRUs any band
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: like that. If we came out today, we'd be we'd
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: be country because Zach Brown band in ninety four would
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: have been selling half million records a week on pop radio.
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: He would have been killing in on pop radio. I mean,
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: but you know today he's a country Do.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: You think that stuff will come back around? Like do
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: you think Rockell?
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I hope so, but I don't. I don't see it.
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: I don't think so either. I think it's it's scary,
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: Like I'm trying to think right now off the top
• 54:28
  Speaker 4: of my head, like a rock band playing in a
• 54:29
  Speaker 4: Rita tour right now, there's nothing.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: There's none that's not a nostalgia band. There's not one
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: band who's like all right right right now? You know,
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: I'm a room five. But you know, when was the
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: last time they were rock.
• 54:39
  Speaker 4: I mean, you know, like even me, I'm younger, I
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: have like my playlists where I get like my banger's
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: going before I go out a little pregame action. Yeah,
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: there's not one new rock song on there cause I
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: don't even I don't know where to find them.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: Kids don't care. The kids aren't looking for and don't
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: and they obviously don't care because if they were looking
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: for it in today's climbing, you can find it, you know,
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: it's so easy to get on line and find whatever.
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: But they don't want it. They want rap and they
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: want pop, and they want you know, that great Post
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: Malone right who's right in the middle and both you know.
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: That's DMO. People love you DM.
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But then also but that's the method thing. They
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: also want to you know, they also want Miranda Lambert
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: and they also want Luke Colmbs because nowadays you always
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: hear that you some guys, you know, somebody to open
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: the car and their Post Malone's playing, and right after
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: that there's a country. So right after that there's walk
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: a fockle, you know, and that's what the kids are
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: doing now. But there's no room for rock and roll.
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'd venture to guess, like the new rock
• 55:31
  Speaker 4: and roll theoretically is the country music. Yeah, yeah, I
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: got I think my first country guards that I went to.
• 55:37
  Speaker 4: I went, like Jason Aldean, probably like ten years ago.
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: I said to myself, it was just a a rock
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: concert pretty much with some access. That's absolutely it's absolutely what.
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: Your thoughts on post Malone's cover only want to be
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: with you?
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: I thought it was absolute genius. I posted man, I
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: was for some reason.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: I was like, is he about say garbage?
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: Post Man?
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: That was absolute guard.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: I think I really thought it was genius. I mean,
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: he's a buddy mine and he said, you know, send
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: me a know. I was got a surprise for you,
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: and it comes out and it was, you know, have
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: somebody cover HOODI song, somebody that big to cover Hoodie
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: song and then do it the way he did it
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: with such respect to the song. I mean that was
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: that was pretty awesome.
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, man, it's got it's it's kind of like your guys'
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: legacy going through generations.
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: Man, it's pretty awesome.
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: What uh? I see?
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: You also have a sports agency, Yes, I do. How
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: do you get into all this stuff outside of music?
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: When did you start to find time to tap into
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: other interests, like while you were being an artist.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: The last probably really ten or so years, I've really
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: started to try to do other stuff just because I
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: get a lot of offers and I always say no
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: because it's gonna be too much work. Now, like with
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: the sports agency. When that came around and and I
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: wanted to get into that with my buddy, that was
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: just a no brainer. I love the NFL, and you know,
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: we only have the NFL. We only have NFL players
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: and golfers. Yeah, and my two favorite things in the
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: world NFL and playing golf. And you know, I'm not
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: that guy. I'm not an agent. You know, I'm not
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: even that you know, I'm that guy who just talks
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: to the guys and you know you want to talk
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: about you know, if you want to talk.
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: To the closer to the closer.
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: I've closed a couple of deers.
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll get Darius. I know we're singing in living
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: rooms of the family.
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: I know we're about to close. When I get that phone,
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: go hey, could you be on a zoom call tomorrow?
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, I got a close. Yeah, I
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: could do that. I could do that.
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: What what makes you such a huge Dolphins fan. I'm
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: not a Carolina fan.
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: I was five years old and my whole family I had,
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: my mom had two sisters, and it was fifteen of
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: us kids, and we were having a party for the
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl and everybody is over at our house, and
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: so I'm a five year old. I go around and
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: I ask everybody who they're pulling for the Dallas. It's
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: seventy one. I think seventy one Dallas Miami. That's all
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: my family who they're pulling for. And everybody says the
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: Cowboys and white sheep of the family. There of course goes, okay,
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: I'm pulling for the Dolphins. I'm pulling for Dolphins. And
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: I remember when they lost, crying like a little bit.
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: I cried like a little baby. I was so upset
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: that they lost. And then the next year, that's just.
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: Because you wanted to be the loan I want to
• 58:19

• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: know you're you're like older in the game now, so
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 3: you could probably give game seeing all this Taylor Swift
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: stuff unfold, What are your thoughts on that, like her
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: having the remake albums? Like, I know, it seems like
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 3: anytime we've had a country artis so on, Like we've
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: had a couple of rappers on, We've had a couple
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: of country artis on, it seems like they're very different
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: industries when it comes to like the labels and owning
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: rights and owning music. We've had Jelly Roll on, who's
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: like an independent guy. But what do you what do
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 3: you make of all that to where she's remaking her
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 3: albums because of who's the guy? What was the guy's name, Alex,
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 3: I know you're well versed on this. Scooter Ron Scooter
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: Brown wouldn't sell her the music or he sold them
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: to a different label without her consent?
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: And does that stuff happen a lot within the country world.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know the deal when you sign your first deal,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: it's always a bad deal. Really, A lot of people
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: get screwed by that. But I love what she's doing.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, and the great thing about Taylor when she
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 2: does stuff like that, she just it. It works. It's perfect,
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: you know, because everybody's going to go out and buy
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: the record, even though it's basically the same record, but
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: they're going to go buy it because she's a freaking
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 2: superstar and I love what she's doing. We record everyone
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 2: and put them out and you know, then for all
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: the stuff that's going on after that, you know, she
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: owns the Master's perfect.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 3: Have you been like going from Hoodie and the Blowfish
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: to you being solo? Were there certain things you looked
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 3: at getting into the getting into the country world or.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: Getting in working with new labels.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the fine print of stuff being like, hey, you know,
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna now that I'm a little bit more established,
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 3: I know I'm not gonna.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: Get out with this.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: Every deal, even my first country deal, Every deal is
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: is I know what I want to own, I know
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: what I'm I'm I'm willing to part with and I know,
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 2: but so if it's not right, we're just not gonna
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 2: do it, because you know, you want to own your
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: you want to own your music. You want to you
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: want to make money off your music, not just the
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: label making all the money off the music. So it's
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: it's really important, especially in the digital age because so
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: hard to make money on records right now. Yeah, you
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: know Spotify spinning you and they're paying us points zero
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: zero zero zero zero one cent every time somebody plays
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 2: one of our songs. Really, yeah, I mean that's that's nothing,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 2: you know. I mean, you gotta you gotta get a
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: billion spins to make one hundred thousand dollars or something.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: You know, it's crazy goodness.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 3: I thought it was interesting too because, uh, the scooter
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 3: guy wanted the Scooter braun. He wanted her to sign
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 3: like an NDA, saying he couldn't say she couldn't say
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: another bad word about him and he would sell.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: Her the music. Is that right, Alex.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 3: But he wanted her to sign an NDA to where
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: he couldn't he couldn't say anything negative. Like, I think
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 3: it's interesting like being in those worlds, like you just
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: have no clue that that's the stuff that goes on,
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 3: like when you're working with big media or big labels
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 3: or anything like that.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a lot of stuff behind the scenes
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: that that that's sleazy, and that's that's that's just different
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 2: and and you you know, it's part of the business.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: We didn't none of us invented it. We'd just living it.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, coming from a coming from a band with who
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 3: they in the Blowfish and going to solo in the
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 3: country industry, especially in an industry where they're huge on
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: your your likeness, the way you present yourself, the way
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: you carry yourself. Did you ever have to get over
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 3: any hurdles getting into the country world. I as far
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: as like, hey, don't say this, or you got to
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 3: be like that, because in country if you say one
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 3: wrong thing, like there could be so much control over
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 3: you to where they can take you off a lot
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 3: of things.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's amazing. Country music is amazing. How how how
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: how you can get canceled like the Dixie Chicks thing,
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 2: you know, I mean they were the biggest thing in
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: the business and then one day and they weren't on
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 2: the radio at all, you know, And that that was
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: always crazy to me. So no one's ever said to
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 2: me don't say this or don't do that. I mean,
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: I've always been a guy who keeps most stuff close
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: to my best and I'm not you know, I'll talk
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: and have fun and laugh and everything, but I'm not
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 2: gonna right, just get serious. I'm not gonna sit out
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: here and talk politics with you guys.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: That sports agency.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: So I just no one had to tell me because
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 2: it's who it's really who I am. So I just
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: I just go. I do what I do and be
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: who I am, and if you don't like it, don't
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: lest them.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's awesome, that's interesting.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: I've always been fascinated with that stuff because anytime we
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 3: have an artist come on, some will give us like
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 3: your Jelly Jelly roll. I don't know if you know
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: who Jelly role is, but he'll tell us like a
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 3: lot of stuff because he's like an independent guy. And
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 3: you can kind of tell some people who might come
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 3: on where they're younger that they might not just be
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: able to say a whole lot because of things that
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 3: they have to sign or things that they've given given away,
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 3: Like I can't, Hey, I can't speak on this.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't know where I was going with that.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: Wheel ride, Like, dude, it's so funny. I heard that
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 2: song for a decade and I never thought about cutting it,
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: and I was, uh, because the old Crow version is
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 2: so bluegrass. It's such a bluegrass song. I never even
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 2: thought of it as a country song. And so I've
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 2: met my daughter's high school talent show and I'm just
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 2: I'm making my record. I fly from Nashville to the
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 2: to the talent show. I'm flying back to gild the
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 2: studio the next day, and and the faculty bands playing.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: It's like three teachers, two janitors. They were playing music
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 2: in between them, and so they played wagon Wheel and
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 2: I'll never forget that. They play wagon and I stopped playing.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh man, I never heard like that.
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 2: They get to the first chorus and I go, I
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 2: think I'm gonna cut that. And so I text my
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 2: my my producer, and I'm very coachable, very coachable. I
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: text my producer and I gay, man, remember that wagon
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 2: Wheel song. And he texted me like, yeah, man, I
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 2: don't know if we should mess with that. He's like,
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: you know a lot of people have cut it. I
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: don't know if we should mess with it. And I
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: texted him back, Hey man, I'm not asking you, I'm
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 2: telling you we're cutting this Wagonwool song. Tomorrow when I
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 2: get back, and he was like, okay, we can cut it.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: And I remember cutting it and I thought it was cool.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: But then when Lyddy and a Bellum got on it,
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: I really thought this song might get hit. And so
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: we put out the first single and it goes number
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: one and there we're then a meeting about the second
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 2: single and one of the guys who I love to death,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: somebody said, well, what about wagon Wheel? And he said,
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 2: we are not putting wagon Wheel out. He's like, yo,
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 2: that's just so cliche, and so we he loses and
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: we put it out and wagon Wheel is the fifth
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: best selling song in the history of country music.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 3: That's the that's your song. That's went like a time platinum, right,
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 3: So I think it just went ten.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: But the thing about it is, you know I didn't
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: write it. It was one of those songs that you
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: always say that people always say, beware what you cut
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: because you might have to play it for the rest
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: of your life. I have to play that song for
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: the rest. Yes, they're playing one song in the show
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 2: and have to be.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: It is like that.
