- 3:16SPEAKER_02: Tell us a little bit about what's going on.
- 3:18SPEAKER_00: Oh, for sure.
- 3:19SPEAKER_00: Um, we've been we've been at it this week.
- 3:22SPEAKER_00: It's crunch time.
- 3:22SPEAKER_00: So you know you've been on said, like, you know how it gets whenever you got events and stuff like that.
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: The week before is always that press time because you want everything to look extra special, want everything to look really good for everyone that attends.
- 3:36SPEAKER_00: And um, so we we really the crew out here, we've been going hard in the paint at the studio.
- 3:44SPEAKER_00: And look, I I really have to put this video up like maybe this week when I get time because I haven't even been on the internet in like I don't know, five days, which is fine with me.
- 3:55SPEAKER_00: I'm one of them people at school, but this tree, this big tree.
- 4:00SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna put up this video because I cannot not put this video up because I thought I was gonna die putting this tree up because I'm hardheaded.
- 4:07SPEAKER_00: I'm a southern hardhead, and I was here by myself late one night, and I was like, you know, I gotta start on the lights tomorrow, and the crew needs to start on lights, so I gotta put this tree up before I leave.
- 4:20SPEAKER_00: So in my mind, I'm like, we could fresh start with lights and roll with the tomorrow, you know.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: So I literally was halfway done with the tree, and it was so hard to put up that I was I was like, you know what, I'm videotaping this just in case I fall off and something happens to me so they can say they can see what happened because it's and it's me pretty much rustling this tree to put it up.
- 4:42SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I still don't know how I put this tree up.
- 4:44SPEAKER_00: You hear me in the end, I'm start talking to Jesus.
- 4:46SPEAKER_00: I'm like, oh Jesus help me, and then all of a sudden he goes on.
- 4:49SPEAKER_00: I'm like, Well, that's a miracle.
- 4:51SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well it looks great.
- 4:53SPEAKER_02: Looks like you got some stockings on there and a lot of life bulbs, and oh yeah, really cool.
- 4:59SPEAKER_02: And and tell us about that Rudolph behind you, the the deer.
- 5:02SPEAKER_02: There's some deer hanging in the barn.
- 5:04SPEAKER_00: I'm looking at, and you told me they covered up your mouth, the mouth is oh yeah, we had to cover up old old Rudolph's mouth right there because yeah, we're just you know, we're in an old barn right now, so it's the mouth is not looking as comp well put together and composed as it and composed, quote unquote, as it as it once was.
- 5:26SPEAKER_02: Hey, when it comes to Rudolph, you just gotta have that red nose, and that's what it's looking.
- 5:31SPEAKER_02: You can see that red nose, that's all that matters, right?
- 5:33SPEAKER_00: That's all that matters.
- 5:34SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
- 5:34SPEAKER_00: Rudolph's just here to light up the way.
- 5:36SPEAKER_00: That's what that nose is about.
- 5:37SPEAKER_02: We don't need his mouth, and you got a grinch behind you, too.
- 5:41SPEAKER_00: It's not a pretty mouth, so we had to cover that mouth.
- 5:45SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I see that.
- 5:46SPEAKER_02: I see that grinch right beside you, too.
- 5:48SPEAKER_02: That's that's pretty cool.
- 5:49SPEAKER_00: That's as tall as the tree is.
- 5:52SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 5:54SPEAKER_00: That's a 12-foot tree, yeah.
- 5:57SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 5:58SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
- 5:59SPEAKER_00: We got on the stage up here in the barn, and we got these pretty lights.
- 6:03SPEAKER_00: Yeah, Mr.
- 6:04SPEAKER_00: Sean makes all kinds of things, and he created this awesome light panel board.
- 6:09SPEAKER_00: I mean, his work is just divine, it really is.
- 6:13SPEAKER_02: But oh well, uh make it tell us about uh what what's going on this weekend.
- 6:17SPEAKER_02: I I know people who are listening this can't see what we're seeing right now, but tell us a little about a bit about what's going on.
- 6:23SPEAKER_02: I I plan on coming down down there looking forward to it.
- 6:26SPEAKER_02: Um what's going on?
- 6:29SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 6:29SPEAKER_00: Well, this weekend we have the Bozars event, and it's our Christmas event.
- 6:34SPEAKER_00: Um, and you know, we have the meet and greets that start at four.
- 6:39SPEAKER_00: Four to and it's mainly four to five.
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: And that's like you get to meet the man himself.
- 6:45SPEAKER_00: You get to come in, you get to like actually meet John Snyder and talk with him, get a picture with him, autograph.
- 6:53SPEAKER_00: And um kind of especially if you're a big fan of you know, anybody that's a fan of anyone or their work, they it's just to have the opportunity to kind of meet your hero and meet someone or meet someone that inspires you is is kind of like you don't want to pass that opportunity up, you know.
- 7:11SPEAKER_00: So that you can still go online and actually get the meet and greet tickets um all the way up to the event.
- 7:18SPEAKER_00: And then and that'll be at four, we'll be kicking off that, and then at five, we'll actually let the general admission, the general public come, and it's it's a free concert event that we're starting.
- 7:32SPEAKER_00: And then then the whole ceremony will start at six, roughly around six, six fifteen.
- 7:37SPEAKER_00: It's gonna be good, man.
- 7:38SPEAKER_00: We got some um, we we're kicking off this show with something that we're kind of it's it's probably started other places, and I'm sure you know, nobody's really ever the first one to do anything in the world.
- 7:52SPEAKER_00: I know they gotta have it out there somewhere, but for me, this is something I really relate to because of just my story, my background, things I've been through in life, but it's called Outlaw Gospel.
- 8:04SPEAKER_00: So we're we've been really digging into that here at the studios.
- 8:10SPEAKER_00: As you know, we have the um church of Singing Waters.
- 8:14SPEAKER_00: This actually used to be a Camp Singing Waters back in the day day.
- 8:19SPEAKER_00: My great, I mean, my grandpa, he was a Boy Scout leader, and then my dad was a Boy Scout here when it was Camp Singing Waters, you know?
- 8:26SPEAKER_00: Wow, and that's when John got it, he had found out about that.
- 8:29SPEAKER_00: It's it's special land, it's pretty out here.
- 8:32SPEAKER_00: The land is beautiful.
- 8:33SPEAKER_00: I love being out here.
- 8:34SPEAKER_00: I love I love coming to a place of that I work at and just driving up and seeing all this country because it's it's just like where I grew up on, you know, country.
- 8:43SPEAKER_00: But so yeah, so they're naming the church, Church of Singwaters, to kind of give honor to that old camp that they had that so many people in this area kind of grew up on and around, but and it's kind of so that's the music is called outlaw gospel, and it's regular gospel preaching, but if we want come one, come all.
- 9:06SPEAKER_00: That's our motto, you know?
- 9:07SPEAKER_00: We don't care who you are, what you're going through, what you've been through.
- 9:11SPEAKER_00: We want this world.
- 9:14SPEAKER_00: We live in such a contagiously hateful world at the moment.
- 9:19SPEAKER_00: I hate to even say that because that's just I don't want to make the energy more contagious, but everything's so dreary, but it's like you know, there's this hope on the other side, like for a better life, you know, and it you ain't gotta be perfect.
- 9:33SPEAKER_00: That's the whole point.
- 9:34SPEAKER_00: Like you gotta find something that works, something that some a higher power that you can do business with, you know, that you can find peace in, that you can something bigger than yourself, you know.
- 9:49SPEAKER_00: None of us get out of here alive by ourselves, right?
- 9:52SPEAKER_00: Well yep.
- 9:54SPEAKER_02: Well, I've been there uh actually in 2015.
- 9:59SPEAKER_02: I went uh my mom and my grandmother, we went down there and in the bar, and I guess that was one of my first times there for Christmas and had a great time.
- 10:07SPEAKER_02: I've been back since for another uh Christmas thing.
- 10:09SPEAKER_02: So yeah, people who are listening to this who are you know, I think John always says if you're around 100 miles outside of Louisiana from from Holden, come on down, it's gonna be a be a great event.
- 10:19SPEAKER_00: It's a free event, so it's worth the money.
- 10:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, definitely worth that somebody come out here because John puts on a good show, and so does everyone that he has on that stage.
- 10:29SPEAKER_00: They put on a good show, and I I love watching them, I really do.
- 10:35SPEAKER_00: It's inspiring, you know.
- 10:36SPEAKER_00: I love music, and everything that they do really shows it gives me a kind of an open eye to what all goes into creating a whole music production and extravaganza too.
- 10:50SPEAKER_00: But you know, I want to get into music, and that's something I'm getting into right now, so it's really cool to have that behind the scenes footage for yourself, you know.
- 10:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah, absolutely.
- 11:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah, uh, speaking about music, uh, I remember he posted uh he posted something uh earlier in was it the summertime or something?
- 11:07SPEAKER_02: I know you did he did the Jolene song, and yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 11:10SPEAKER_02: Tell us a little.
- 11:11SPEAKER_02: That was awesome.
- 11:12SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and did you see that they got a remix of Jolene that just came out too?
- 11:15SPEAKER_00: Did you see that?
- 11:16SPEAKER_00: Really?
- 11:16SPEAKER_00: No, I didn't see that.
- 11:17SPEAKER_00: Dolly Parton put a new remix of it out, and I think there might be some kind of line dance or something along with it, but I was like, you know, that's funny because I just put out my own remix.
- 11:28SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, mine's a raspy remix.
- 11:30SPEAKER_00: That's what we're gonna call it.
- 11:31SPEAKER_00: The raty remix raspy remix.
- 11:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it was great, it was great.
- 11:36SPEAKER_02: Well, thank you.
- 11:37SPEAKER_00: I'm glad you enjoyed it.
- 11:39SPEAKER_02: Tell us about uh about poker run.
- 11:41SPEAKER_02: I know John's been promoting it, and it just came out Orange Friday, and uh seems to be a big hit.
- 11:47SPEAKER_02: I watched it the other day, and how awesome was that!
- 11:50SPEAKER_00: You liked it?
- 11:51SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 11:54SPEAKER_02: It was funny, you know.
- 11:55SPEAKER_02: I was in that bars fight scene.
- 11:56SPEAKER_02: I've never been in a fight in my life, man.
- 11:58SPEAKER_02: I'm on the fight on the camera now.
- 12:00SPEAKER_02: I'm punching, I'm punching uh what's the name Tim Phillips.
- 12:03SPEAKER_02: We're I was like, I didn't go to the premiere, and Tim watched it.
- 12:06SPEAKER_02: He told me he was like, Man, he punched me pretty good.
- 12:08SPEAKER_02: So I was waiting for that moment and boom.
- 12:10SPEAKER_02: I was like, Wow, that's that's funny.
- 12:11SPEAKER_02: You felt it, yeah.
- 12:13SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
- 12:14SPEAKER_00: No, that was good stuff.
- 12:16SPEAKER_02: But yeah, you did awesome in it.
- 12:18SPEAKER_00: Did you enjoy being on set?
- 12:19SPEAKER_00: You didn't enjoy filming and everything.
- 12:21SPEAKER_00: I loved it.
- 12:22SPEAKER_02: I loved it.
- 12:22SPEAKER_02: Every time I get to come down there and John lets me be and stuff, it's it's just been a it's been a blessing.
- 12:27SPEAKER_02: So really enjoy to get to hang out on set and be around everybody.
- 12:31SPEAKER_00: And uh, by the way, I'm your co-host, I'm asking you questions too.
- 12:36SPEAKER_02: That's right, you are hey dropped for you that day.
- 12:39SPEAKER_02: That day, everybody it takes people who are listening to this wonder what what goes into making a movie and stuff like that, being on set.
- 12:46SPEAKER_02: I remember you that day when we were filming the bar fight scene, you were outside uh blocking the light coming into the bar.
- 12:53SPEAKER_02: Remember that?
- 12:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so it just takes a whole team, and there's a prime example right there.
- 12:58SPEAKER_00: Like they say, that old thing, it's the village.
- 13:01SPEAKER_02: It really does, and and you did great.
- 13:03SPEAKER_02: And uh, but uh what about being a character?
- 13:06SPEAKER_02: Um, you're what was her character, Becca?
- 13:08SPEAKER_02: It's uh Becca the dealer.
- 13:10SPEAKER_00: Well, Alicia.
- 13:11SPEAKER_00: That's Alicia's little nickname for me, is Becca, and it's uh I'm the that that was a poker dealer's name, and then I you know got the role for the poker dealer.
- 13:22SPEAKER_00: So I it's a cool role.
- 13:24SPEAKER_00: I'm glad that I was I was that role because it's like you're the middleman, but you get to get in on all the action, you know what I mean?
- 13:31SPEAKER_00: Like I'm not sweet and potatoes of the movie, but I'm in the whole thing.
- 13:34SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna, you know, absolutely I got to get a front row seat to the whole movie being made, pretty much, and kind of just you know, deal my card, say a couple lines here and there and and enjoy the ride.
- 13:46SPEAKER_00: So it's a sweet role.
- 13:48SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'm the I'm the uncle, the man with the money, the money man that's the evil man that's trying to like plot the friends against each other.
- 13:57SPEAKER_00: I'm his I'm his niece.
- 13:58SPEAKER_00: So he of course he has his needs to probably side pimp his events anymore.
- 14:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's funny watching the watching the outtakes.
- 14:08SPEAKER_02: If you get the DVD of poker on, be sure you watch the outtakes and behind the scenes.
- 14:11SPEAKER_02: There's some good stuff.
- 14:13SPEAKER_00: Like Dion is my boy that me, you know, because you know, I've I've kind of got a little comedic side to me, and he's just straight comedy, like it's so he's so funny in real life, and and so we were just jobbing together, but we just didn't even stop filming, we just rolled through it, and we just kept going off each other's energy, and he's he's hilarious.
- 14:36SPEAKER_00: So I don't want to tell him too much, but yeah, y'all gotta watch behind the scene footage because we we run it, we'll run it back to each other.
- 14:43SPEAKER_02: Definitely watch the behind the scenes.
- 14:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah, Dion is is he's a funny dude for sure.
- 14:47SPEAKER_02: He really is.
- 14:48SPEAKER_02: But what about what about uh Trace Leches?
- 14:51SPEAKER_02: Okay, for all y'all listening out here, that was work first together, but we didn't know we were both in it.
- 14:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah, me and her, we were in the movie together, but we weren't.
- 15:00SPEAKER_02: I filmed my scenes earlier, and then and then I left, and it was only for like one day, one night.
- 15:05SPEAKER_02: And then turns out me and her were in the movie and we we're separate.
- 15:08SPEAKER_02: Uh, but you know, it came out.
- 15:10SPEAKER_02: We've been waiting for this movie.
- 15:11SPEAKER_02: I've been telling people about it.
- 15:12SPEAKER_02: We filmed it in 2016, and I've been telling people about I'm gonna play this character and add brown hair then.
- 15:21SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and you know, I was telling people about this, and they're like, Yeah, right.
- 15:25SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm not gonna believe this, whatever, it's not come out.
- 15:27SPEAKER_02: And I was like, I promise it's gonna come out, and then you're like, I'm not lying, I swear I did a movie, yeah.
- 15:32SPEAKER_00: They're like, Look, you ain't gotta lie to kick it, bro.
- 15:35SPEAKER_00: Yes, you ain't gotta lie to us.
- 15:37SPEAKER_00: We'll still be your friend, even if you're not a movie star, you don't have to lie about your your movie career to us, you know.
- 15:44SPEAKER_02: Right, then finally you redeem yourself and it comes out exactly all these years later, it finally came out.
- 15:49SPEAKER_00: And wow, what a yeah, and you've done like a book since it's you're like, Look, yeah, it's coming.
- 15:58SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well, well, tell us about that.
- 15:59SPEAKER_02: What do you think about filming that?
- 16:01SPEAKER_02: When it a trip movie was hilarious for my people who hadn't watched it yet.
- 16:05SPEAKER_00: I know it was oh my god, I could not.
- 16:08SPEAKER_00: I I don't know if it was just because of my character, and I really don't like watching myself on screen to be honest with you, because I don't want to be too critical of myself as a as an actress for future things, yeah.
- 16:21SPEAKER_00: And I could be really we all are almost critic in a way, you know.
- 16:25SPEAKER_00: So I'll watch my movies and I'll judge how I did on like if my armpits sweat or not or something like that.
- 16:33SPEAKER_00: I really try not to watch too many of my movies too many times, but Trace Lachaise, I had to watch it twice because I had to watch it with a couple many of my family members because like I was like, you're gonna die.
- 16:44SPEAKER_00: Like, this is good stuff, it's good comic relief, and it's not for well, like John kind of puts a little side note, like yeah, it's not for everybody, kids, you know, or sensitive Sally.
- 16:57SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
- 16:58SPEAKER_00: If you're Sally, don't watch it either because you might get your feelings hurt.
- 17:02SPEAKER_02: No sense of Sally's, you know, that's the funny thing about these movies that John makes, you know, they're they some of them might not be for everybody, but you know, they're all in good fun, and and and a lot of there are a lot of inside jokes in them and a lot a lot of funny stuff.
- 17:17SPEAKER_02: But the whole point is to not take life too seriously, you know.
- 17:20SPEAKER_02: Don't take life too seriously.
- 17:21SPEAKER_00: That's what these movies are about to have fun and just I love how if you've been a John Snyder fan, the thing with John that I love and I I really respect as an artist, because you know, I I write my I write I've been writing songs for a long time.
- 17:35SPEAKER_00: So I write my songs and I've I've written a couple of skits that I got in the in the closet for maybe later in life if I ever want to something.
- 17:43SPEAKER_00: But I really like how he puts these Easter eggs in his movie.
- 17:46SPEAKER_00: He puts if you've been a Snyder fan, you'll and you've been following his work, then you're gonna peep on those, you're gonna notice those Easter eggs in these movies when he makes his little side jokes or or tidbits, and you're like, Oh, I know what he's I know what he's talking about.
- 18:03SPEAKER_00: I know that you might not, but I do because you know, I've been watching his stuff for so long, and yeah, I think that's something special too that you give back to like people who follow your work, you know.
- 18:15SPEAKER_00: It's kind of like a wink, a little wink to them, like what's up?
- 18:18SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
- 18:18SPEAKER_00: I see you.
- 18:19SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you're exactly right on that.
- 18:20SPEAKER_02: That's what's the best part of what watched them is watching for those moments, and then when you hear it, you're like, because most people, people who haven't been following won't get it, but the people who have been following, you're like, Oh, I know what that is, and that makes it extra special, makes you really enjoy it better.
- 18:33SPEAKER_00: It really, really does.
- 18:34SPEAKER_02: It's really cool.
- 18:35SPEAKER_02: So, yeah, it's just uh I'll still pinch myself because you know, yeah, I've I've said this before, people who've listened know about it and everything.
- 18:41SPEAKER_02: You know, he was my hero growing up as a kid, and and then you know, it was actually at this Christmas event uh that in 20 uh 15 where I went up and talked to him afterwards, introduced myself, and he remembered me.
- 18:54SPEAKER_02: And then he gave me his number there.
- 18:56SPEAKER_02: He was like, If you're ever in Louisiana, give me a call.

- 19:47SPEAKER_00: Then you appreciate movies so much more.
- 19:49SPEAKER_00: Like when I when I really started getting into movies, I was like, Man, this is a lot of sit and wait, and that's what they call the sit and wait game.
- 19:56SPEAKER_00: But and this is a lot more than I thought.
- 19:58SPEAKER_02: It's not just like roll the cameras and like clip, you know, don't yeah, there's a lot of stuff goes on behind the scenes that the viewer don't doesn't really realize it's unless you're there.
- 20:09SPEAKER_02: It takes a lot.
- 20:10SPEAKER_02: A lot of people, like I said, a team F are like like you putting the lighting up to cover the lighting from now, still remember that.
- 20:15SPEAKER_02: Right, and you know, that's a team effort.
- 20:17SPEAKER_00: That's what it's funny about working here because you know, uh, I'm yeah, I'm part talent, but I got a little work ethic in me too.
- 20:26SPEAKER_00: So yeah, I'm hiring home with the crew too.
- 20:28SPEAKER_00: So I kind of uh, you know, a little variety, it's a spice of life, why not?
- 20:33SPEAKER_00: Right, and and I get to be around creative, you know, people and a creative environment and get to do things with a team that you know I'm really I'm really lucky to be doing right now, and always have it in my head in the game, like as far as entertainment and stuff.
- 20:51SPEAKER_00: It keeps me on my toes to like be here and around all this energy, you know, this good energy out there.
- 20:57SPEAKER_00: So what about blessed man?
- 21:00SPEAKER_00: I really am.
- 21:01SPEAKER_02: What about your uh your your music uh venue?

- 21:13SPEAKER_00: It's um well, this is this is look, you know, Becky.
- 21:17SPEAKER_00: Becky's got the whole cake roodle in her head, it's just mapping it out.
- 21:20SPEAKER_00: So everything takes time.
- 21:22SPEAKER_00: Um, I feel like what my entertainment career, you know, where I'm at in my life right now, which I'm I'm putting my phone on the charger by the way.
- 21:30SPEAKER_00: I know I'm not supposed to have a podcast, but I'm just letting you know.
- 21:33SPEAKER_00: But where I'm at with my entertainment career right now is like really um it's I started off when with Milan when I was younger, and then I went into acting.
- 21:49SPEAKER_00: And it's like I'm still gonna do my acting, but I've really I've I just dove into my music because I've been writing it for a long time, and I really didn't think I would get to the point.
- 22:01SPEAKER_00: I really wanted to release it, but it's it's something that I have to do.
- 22:04SPEAKER_00: I can't leave the earth like being like hell, you sissy, you know, you didn't do it, you chickened out or whatever.
- 22:11SPEAKER_00: It's just not me.
- 22:12SPEAKER_00: It's some chicken out.
- 22:13SPEAKER_00: So I feel like it in a way it's like peeling off the mask.
- 22:16SPEAKER_00: Like, you know, as far as my entertainment career, because a lot of people they just know me like they don't really know the real me.
- 22:24SPEAKER_00: You know, they see like Becky on the internet or whatever, but like with my music, it's like it's my blues, man.
- 22:31SPEAKER_00: It's my heart, and it's a lot of stuff that I went through, and it's really me being vulnerable, you know, and and having a moment of sincerity with others, and um a moment of like really relation, you know, right as far as life goes.
- 22:47SPEAKER_00: So it is scary, it is very scary, but it's like a necessity for my soul right now.
- 22:52SPEAKER_00: So that's really like what's been the driving force behind doing my music is like I I've gotta peel off the layers of the onion, you know.
- 23:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah, absolutely.
- 23:03SPEAKER_00: I guess that's the best way to put it.
- 23:05SPEAKER_00: I don't know if that makes sense.
