- 3:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I was banging that not like us.
- 3:50Speaker 3: It was not like us.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Kendrick lamore his little West Coast beat.
- 3:53Speaker 3: Did you Yeah?
- 3:55Speaker 1: I did. I was listening to this morning. I basically
- 3:57Speaker 1: listened throughout you know, listen to all their beef songs
- 4:00Speaker 1: this morning while I was working out, because they have
- 4:02Speaker 1: there's like five or six.
- 4:03Speaker 3: Now, wait, since since Saturday when Kendrick released that Glove one.
- 4:08Speaker 1: The glove one was was the glove one meet the Grahams.
- 4:13Speaker 3: No, the Glove one was like six something oh six
- 4:16Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's six sixteen.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Dude, did you see did you.
- 4:19Speaker 3: See the whole thing on six sixteen? Because apparently Drake
- 4:22Speaker 3: said something about like you better come out with a
- 4:23Speaker 3: quintuple with something I don't even understand, and there was
- 4:26Speaker 3: like a Bible verse of six sixteen, like seven things
- 4:28Speaker 3: that God hates and he goes off and the and
- 4:30Speaker 3: the song has seven things God hates, and then there
- 4:33Speaker 3: was like the album release date. The producer was Taylor
- 4:35Speaker 3: Swift's it all I kind of came together. It was
- 4:38Speaker 3: like seven things because of six sixteen. Yeah, it's nuts.
- 4:41Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's been a back and forth uh rap battle,
- 4:45Speaker 1: as the boys like to call it.
- 4:46Speaker 3: I always have trouble following rat battles because it's like
- 4:48Speaker 3: you have to listen to this song multiple times to understand.
- 4:51Speaker 1: I know, and you need to know the context in history,
- 4:53Speaker 1: like I found myself on Instagram and YouTube listen to
- 4:56Speaker 1: these people break down. There's an incredible breakdown yesterday day.
- 5:01Speaker 1: I forget who the cat was. But it's like seven
- 5:04Speaker 1: minutes long or five minutes long? Which one? Did I say?
- 5:08Speaker 1: You on Instagram?
- 5:09Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 5:10Speaker 5: Yeah, I forget you send it to me on Friday.
- 5:12Speaker 1: See that's a different one. That one's just a breakdown
- 5:15Speaker 1: of euphoria. Yeah, that was just a breakdown of euphoria.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Then this cat breaks down that the history of like people,
- 5:24Speaker 1: a lot of people in the industry like hating Drake.
- 5:27Speaker 1: It's like the weekend, Uh take a back, Rick Ross.
- 5:32Speaker 1: He goes through like a timeline of it all going,
- 5:36Speaker 1: you know, basically building up the way it is, and
- 5:39Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar having all the you know, subtle comments and
- 5:42Speaker 1: the depth to each little bar that he has, Like
- 5:45Speaker 1: he's like breaking it down.
- 5:47Speaker 3: So obviously I don't know a whole lot about this, dude.
- 5:49Speaker 3: Does anybody know the origin story of how Kendrick and
- 5:51Speaker 3: Drake started going at it?
- 5:53Speaker 1: I couldn't even tell you.
- 5:56Speaker 3: But why why is Kendrick coming on? See, there's a
- 5:58Speaker 3: whole bunch. I would love somebody in the has to
- 6:00Speaker 3: tell me everything that's going on with this, because I
- 6:02Speaker 3: don't know how this all started.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Yeah, we got five white guys trying to break down exactly,
- 6:06Speaker 1: and it's you know, we're just the wrong population to
- 6:09Speaker 1: be doing this right now.
- 6:10Speaker 3: But Drake has a lyric that's like I'm doing twenty
- 6:12Speaker 3: verse one or something. Like that, talking about like all
- 6:14Speaker 3: these dudes coming at him, but he's still murdering all
- 6:16Speaker 3: of them. All this stuff that I just don't get.
- 6:19Speaker 3: I don't understand.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, other than the and then people people, people,
- 6:24Speaker 1: we got these, we got these, we got and we're
- 6:30Speaker 1: growing him in this thing.
- 6:31Speaker 3: The spring is such a beautiful time. But as spring
- 6:33Speaker 3: goes this summer, this fight cast some radiation. Yeah, the
- 6:37Speaker 3: amount of bugs I have in my house right now
- 6:39Speaker 3: is insane. Look at this motherfuck I know that he's
- 6:41Speaker 3: just ripping around.
- 6:42Speaker 1: It's a thick boy right there. Yeah.
- 6:44Speaker 3: Oh oh yeah, you have him to rest on you.
- 6:48Speaker 3: He don't look like he's resting anytime. So, no, he
- 6:50Speaker 3: got all the energy.
- 6:52Speaker 1: JP's got a little bit of space to work with.
- 6:53Speaker 1: If that.
- 6:55Speaker 3: Did you get his ass? No, nope, he's right here.
- 6:58Speaker 1: He's right here.
- 7:00Speaker 3: Anyway, People probably dont want to listen to us.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Is this all good news? Though? We get to do
- 7:10Speaker 1: a We'll get to run through this intro fairly fairly
- 7:13Speaker 1: faster because we have a awesome guest on with Tyler Hebby today. Yes,
- 7:18Speaker 1: the breakup of Florida Georgia Lion will be the headlining
- 7:21Speaker 1: story of this whole thing.
- 7:22Speaker 3: And we shot this episode what like a month ago,
- 7:24Speaker 3: a couple months ago, when Tyler was coming out. He
- 7:27Speaker 3: came sat on the bus. Dude, was the conversation was incredible?
- 7:30Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 7:31Speaker 3: Yeah, it was one of those classic busts with the
- 7:33Speaker 3: boys or gaining conversations where you feel like things are
- 7:35Speaker 3: just flowing great. The entire time. Tyler was very shared
- 7:38Speaker 3: a lot lot with the struggles, the trials and tribulations,
- 7:41Speaker 3: the origin story of Florida, Georgia line, all of that stuff.
- 7:44Speaker 3: But there's been the reason why I say we filmed
- 7:46Speaker 3: it so long ago, there's been so many developments since then.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Uh BK.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Brian Kelly his ex I don't know co singer, would
- 7:54Speaker 3: you call it his ex partner? He came out with
- 7:59Speaker 3: a a song that says you can kiss my boots now.
- 8:03Speaker 3: If you listen to the song on your own, it
- 8:05Speaker 3: just sounds like a guy. Have you heard the song?
- 8:08Speaker 3: If you listen to the song on your own, it
- 8:10Speaker 3: really just sounds like a guy and a girl broke
- 8:11Speaker 3: up and the girl's talking shit about the guy and
- 8:14Speaker 3: he's like, you know, there's a small town. I hear everything,
- 8:16Speaker 3: blah blah blah. But knowing there was a breakup, and
- 8:19Speaker 3: a lot of people in the fan bases of Flora's
- 8:21Speaker 3: a line kind of picking a side John a line
- 8:23Speaker 3: down the middle. You gotta pick b k or Tyler.
- 8:25Speaker 3: A lot of fans are coming out and say, hey,
- 8:27Speaker 3: this is about Tyler. All this there's like a snow
- 8:30Speaker 3: We got a country battle. We got Yeah, we had
- 8:31Speaker 3: a cout, we got we got Ketrick Lamarn drink, and
- 8:33Speaker 3: we got a country Battley and Tyler. Yeah, we got
- 8:38Speaker 3: a southern battle going down with the boys over here
- 8:40Speaker 3: in the southeastern area of the country. Is So there's
- 8:43Speaker 3: a lot to read into, but this is actually a
- 8:44Speaker 3: great episode. He was really gonna enjoy it.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was a That was a song
- 8:49Speaker 1: that you dropped, right, I dropped in our group chat
- 8:55Speaker 1: yeh gotcha? Yes, yes, yes, I didn't get to I
- 8:57Speaker 1: listened to some of it, but I didn't get to
- 8:59Speaker 1: listen to.
- 8:59Speaker 3: You can listen to it, and it's very easy if
- 9:02Speaker 3: I just say to you it's about Telller Hubbard, and
- 9:04Speaker 3: you go listen to a song, you're like, this is
- 9:05Speaker 3: one hundred percent about Tell Hubbard, but zero context to me.
- 9:08Speaker 3: I was trying to listen to it like without having
- 9:10Speaker 3: an year trying to be biastors Styllar. It felt. It
- 9:13Speaker 3: also felt like a breakup song. So it's a fun.
- 9:16Speaker 3: It's creativity boys. Boys are getting creative in the lab,
- 9:19Speaker 3: getting after it.
- 9:20Speaker 1: They want to get in the laugh. They want the
- 9:22Speaker 1: example of Kendrick and Drake, like now, right now they
- 9:25Speaker 1: should be taking notes. That's how you need to be
- 9:27Speaker 1: handling a beef because because whatever albums they drop from here,
- 9:30Speaker 1: from here on out, their next album is gonna do. Yeah,
- 9:35Speaker 1: Drake does anyway, but h and so does Kendrick. But
- 9:38Speaker 1: knowing that this beef is going on, I know, it's
- 9:39Speaker 1: just got all It reminds me. It's like when the
- 9:42Speaker 1: Rock and the Undertakers are showing back up in the WWE.
- 9:45Speaker 1: Everyone's going nuts. You got older generations, everybody kind of
- 9:48Speaker 1: coming together to watch all this unfold because the rat
- 9:51Speaker 1: Battle still hasn't happened for such a long time.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder there are conspiracy theories about this whole
- 9:57Speaker 3: rat battle thing. And as it's like shown that if
- 9:59Speaker 3: you get in an ur with another person of popularity,
- 10:01Speaker 3: your number are gonna go up because their fans are gonna.
- 10:03Speaker 1: Want to watch you and vice versa, Yeah, do.
- 10:05Speaker 3: You think this has been this manufactured?
- 10:08Speaker 1: Yeah? No, could so?
- 10:10Speaker 3: Could it have been?
- 10:11Speaker 1: Though? I know, but if you if you're if you
- 10:14Speaker 1: kind of follow the timeline of everything, you see Kat Williams,
- 10:17Speaker 1: even when he's on Shannon Shark's podcast, he talks about
- 10:20Speaker 1: you're twenty twenty four, people are gonna start getting exposed,
- 10:23Speaker 1: and people are alluding that to like, oh, this is
- 10:25Speaker 1: a you know, Drake's part of this Yeah, Cat Row
- 10:28Speaker 1: part of this group.
- 10:29Speaker 3: Yeah, Alex Jones.
- 10:31Speaker 1: Yeah, they're both. Yeah, they're both. Like Drake is so polarizing.
- 10:36Speaker 1: It's like his latest one, it's basically just saying like, oh,
- 10:39Speaker 1: you're lying, which you don't really know. And then he
- 10:42Speaker 1: said he baited him, he baited him to make the
- 10:44Speaker 1: songs before that. But it's like, if you knew you're
- 10:46Speaker 1: abating him, why don't you have like actual like say,
- 10:49Speaker 1: your phone's out and you're recording yourself like hey, we're
- 10:51Speaker 1: about to get his ass type of thing, and then
- 10:53Speaker 1: you're showing yourself give the information Like if you're that,
- 10:56Speaker 1: if you're that much playing chess, I don't know why
- 10:59Speaker 1: you wouldn't do that kind of show that off versus
- 11:01Speaker 1: you know, you kind of sit back, you can let
- 11:03Speaker 1: comments and the war everybody's words unfolded, and kind of
- 11:07Speaker 1: use whatever narrative fits you know, that next song. It
- 11:10Speaker 1: kind of reminds me a lot of like when a
- 11:11Speaker 1: when all the ab stuff was going down from with
- 11:14Speaker 1: the Raiders, and people like, oh, there's probably more to
- 11:16Speaker 1: the story here. There's probably more to the story there,
- 11:17Speaker 1: and everybody's given him the benefit of the doubt, and
- 11:19Speaker 1: then he kind of allows people to paint a certain
- 11:22Speaker 1: narrative and then he'll lean into that one because that's
- 11:24Speaker 1: what best suits him in that moment.
- 11:27Speaker 3: The rap battle thing is interesting because there is really
- 11:30Speaker 3: a book pretty much written for it. Eminem batt Yeah,
- 11:35Speaker 3: he's there was another track, but I'm talking about like strategically,
- 11:40Speaker 3: Like if you look at MGK before he ventured off
- 11:44Speaker 3: and went into the punk rock scene, he had that
- 11:46Speaker 3: song uh Devil, oh geh rap Devil, and it was
- 11:50Speaker 3: about Eminem. The next I think in the within the
- 11:53Speaker 3: twenty four hours, Eminem had kill shot on MGK and
- 11:56Speaker 3: it was just him going ham on MGK for a minute.
- 11:59Speaker 3: And so I don't know why it's that, That's why
- 12:02Speaker 3: things just seem manufactured to me, like all this stuff's
- 12:04Speaker 3: just coming out now, like we're all the kind of
- 12:05Speaker 3: planning you released and all released and you release.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I think that. I think it's
- 12:10Speaker 1: been fun.
- 12:11Speaker 3: Once again, it's a category that we Yeah.
- 12:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I sit back in my Oh, some of the
- 12:16Speaker 1: boys are dropping the group chat. Oh another disc track
- 12:18Speaker 1: comes up. Oh shit, Oh, take a listen. Yeah, I
- 12:20Speaker 1: wonder what he means here, what he means there. I'm
- 12:23Speaker 1: trying to research articles to stay privy to the culture,
- 12:26Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
- 12:26Speaker 3: Yeah, I was at Franklin Factory and that when one
- 12:29Speaker 3: of the boys put the disc track in the group chat,
- 12:31Speaker 3: I was taking a twosy and the bathroom. I just
- 12:34Speaker 3: had it on loud, listening to it myself, full volume
- 12:38Speaker 3: and the whole time, Like, I gotta listen to this
- 12:40Speaker 3: four more times just to understand the lyrics because it's difficult.
- 12:43Speaker 3: It's hard to pick all that ship up.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Dude. Yeah, but it's also so that's a little humid
- 12:50Speaker 1: in here, A little sneaky one came out.
- 12:52Speaker 3: Huh, A little humid in one just greased out of
- 12:55Speaker 3: the pipes.
- 12:55Speaker 5: Hu.
- 12:56Speaker 3: So I think so, yeah, that creativity man to be
- 12:59Speaker 3: able to just go out somebody that hard.
- 13:01Speaker 1: I know, bro, it's awesome.
- 13:03Speaker 3: It makes you appreciate Roan that much more.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Did you listen to rons this track on KFC?
- 13:08Speaker 3: You check on KFC?
- 13:09Speaker 1: Yeah, check that one out just murdered him in cold blood? Yeah,
- 13:16Speaker 1: And then I KFC was saying that that they were texting.
- 13:19Speaker 1: He's like, hey, I have something written, like, you know,
- 13:22Speaker 1: basically asking how much farther do we want to go
- 13:26Speaker 1: with this or YadA YadA, and he goes, no, no,
- 13:30Speaker 1: it was no, it wasn't manufactured. But KFC's texting with him,
- 13:34Speaker 1: trying to, like, you know, find where the line could
- 13:36Speaker 1: potentially be. He's like, if I released this, you know,
- 13:39Speaker 1: will you have anything else? Blah blah blah, and Ron
- 13:42Speaker 1: basically responded like, I'll empty the clip. I will end
- 13:48Speaker 1: you if you put this out. If you put something out,
- 13:51Speaker 1: put something else out. But Rone, that's you don't want
- 13:55Speaker 1: to get involved. We got a espressos Yeah yeah.
- 13:58Speaker 3: Lock it him with a lucy real quick, brother. I
- 14:00Speaker 3: hate to kill your vibe. I didn't want to kill
- 14:02Speaker 3: your flow there.
- 14:03Speaker 1: It's like, you don't want to get in beef with
- 14:05Speaker 1: Ron because of the rat battleship, and you don't want
- 14:08Speaker 1: to get into beef with Francis because of the blogging.
- 14:10Speaker 3: If you if you had to categorize who you don't
- 14:13Speaker 3: want to make upset at barstool, it would probably go
- 14:17Speaker 3: Dave number one, obviously, and then Francis, and then Ron
- 14:22Speaker 3: and then probably Big Cat.
- 14:24Speaker 1: See I don't to me, I don't think Dave would
- 14:26Speaker 1: be the number one. Really, I don't think Dave would be.
- 14:28Speaker 1: If I'm going into a beef thing with Dave being
- 14:32Speaker 1: number one, I would be more concerned about, like a Francis.
- 14:36Speaker 3: In a Ron because creatively, how they would end.
- 14:38Speaker 1: Yeah, like they can, they can big brain hurt your feelings. Yeah, yeah,
- 14:43Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, Like god, damn.
- 14:47Speaker 3: I saw a clip of Francis like on Instagram the
- 14:49Speaker 3: other day doing stand up. He is so fucking funny.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Yeah, genuine Francis is good.
- 14:56Speaker 3: Him and his girl starting to try and she's got
- 14:57Speaker 3: a whole new bag of tricks. He's like, that's crazy.
- 14:59Speaker 3: I've been giving you everything I have this whole time time,
- 15:02Speaker 3: and I just think to myself, bro, how do you
- 15:04Speaker 3: think of that? It's amazing?
- 15:05Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that stuff like Francis and Roan have the
- 15:09Speaker 1: the ability language a lot wise verbally to just somebody
- 15:14Speaker 1: like me, you just gotta go animal brain and you
- 15:16Speaker 1: just resort to fighting, you know what I mean, because
- 15:19Speaker 1: there's there's nothing you can do. You just get so yeah, bamboozled.
- 15:23Speaker 1: It's you kind of can't keep your wits to you.
- 15:24Speaker 1: If it's like Dave or Big Cat, like those will
- 15:26Speaker 1: be those will be fun battles. But you know, you're
- 15:29Speaker 1: just like, you know, I don't know, they seem a
- 15:31Speaker 1: little bit more fun like Roan and Francis, you're kind
- 15:33Speaker 1: of sitting back like, man, what the fuck is about
- 15:35Speaker 1: to happen?
- 15:35Speaker 3: Yeah. The thing, the reason why I brought up Dave
- 15:37Speaker 3: is number one is because his following is so strong
- 15:40Speaker 3: and he just he literally he has a track record
- 15:43Speaker 3: and he has receipts of ending people.
- 15:45Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, you'll get ratioed into oblivium oblivion. Yeah.
- 15:49Speaker 1: But as far as reading and listening to the stuff.
- 15:51Speaker 3: Creatively, if you're talking about just one on one, like
- 15:54Speaker 3: to verbally go back and forth with Dave or Big Cat,
- 15:57Speaker 3: you feel like those are like more suitors for your cate, right,
- 16:00Speaker 3: you could ultimately be like curse words and a lot
- 16:02Speaker 3: of insults, but at the end you're couple far.
- 16:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just trying to be like trying to be
- 16:06Speaker 3: funny about it. Like Ron and Francis legitimately are just
- 16:09Speaker 3: in a different category than us that we wouldn't be
- 16:12Speaker 3: able to handle it.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Verbally. Yeah yeah, I would say on who's bad side,
- 16:19Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to be on in in a like
- 16:21Speaker 1: a like a beef in the Barsil world, I would say.
- 16:25Speaker 3: I want to change my I'm gonna change mine as well,
- 16:27Speaker 3: because I think Dave does go down the list.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Now, let's say Francis, Ron, Dave, that would be my
- 16:38Speaker 1: top three. That'd be my top three. It's a good list.
- 16:41Speaker 3: It's a good list. Those are the three. Something about
- 16:46Speaker 3: sneaky guys though, Rico and Jersey Jerry, not from them,
- 16:51Speaker 3: just from their their little armies that just follow them
- 16:53Speaker 3: around and are truly willing to come and cause you
- 16:56Speaker 3: and actually murder you.
- 16:59Speaker 1: I feel like they're they got.
- 17:00Speaker 3: They have people that legitimately, if like I really came
- 17:03Speaker 3: down to it, would come to your house and kill you.
- 17:05Speaker 1: Like for them, like everybody has audiences, they have soldiers
- 17:09Speaker 1: exactly that those would there'll probably be four and five
- 17:14Speaker 1: because he gets malicious. Yeah, yeah, because he's trying to
- 17:18Speaker 1: have a good time. He he does try to find them.
- 17:22Speaker 3: He tries to do it in a fun way where
- 17:23Speaker 3: he like, like like the draft when we were there,
- 17:26Speaker 3: he was like, oh, hey, who are you the whole time.
- 17:28Speaker 3: It's like, Oh, he's having fun. I'm glad he's having
- 17:30Speaker 3: a good time with this. Yeah, as opposed to Dave,
- 17:32Speaker 3: who's just I mean, yeah, he'll come after you. He
- 17:35Speaker 3: does you, man, he just comes at you.
- 17:38Speaker 1: So is your top through the same.
- 17:41Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I would probably put David three after this.
- 17:43Speaker 1: Problem Jerry in there so that way we can have
- 17:46Speaker 1: just have I I.
- 17:47Speaker 4: Would go.
- 17:50Speaker 3: Top three people you don't want to kind of get
- 17:52Speaker 3: in a spat with. I would go Francis probably one,
- 17:57Speaker 3: just how he handles himself on the mic, and in
- 18:01Speaker 3: the writing category, I would put Rome two because he's
- 18:05Speaker 3: just more creative and whatier than both of us. And
- 18:08Speaker 3: then I'd probably put Jerry three. I think ever since
- 18:15Speaker 3: Jerry after Dark, ever since the Hole in one, the Chat,
- 18:18Speaker 3: he's just got the chat. He has the chat, and
- 18:20Speaker 3: the chat will handle you. And like I said before,
- 18:22Speaker 3: if he if you and Jerry truly got into it
- 18:25Speaker 3: where there was like true beef, like a Kendrick and
- 18:27Speaker 3: a Drake situation. Jerry's gonna have a Baker's dozen people
- 18:30Speaker 3: lining up lining outside your door to truly actually not joking,
- 18:34Speaker 3: murder you. And they're ready to Jerry's army, right, yeah,
- 18:37Speaker 3: Jerry's Army's arm Jerry, what we have?
- 18:40Speaker 1: Hey, I'll tell you what And I don't want this, bros.
- 18:44Speaker 1: Don't sleep on kirkman Inahan. Well, we were talking about
- 18:49Speaker 1: don't sleep on kirkman Inhan. Whatsoever? I forgot about that one. Hey,
- 18:52Speaker 1: and all the mini fans out there people, Yeah, I'm
- 18:54Speaker 1: not trying to fester up, nobody, do not sleep on
- 18:57Speaker 1: kirk Inhan.
- 18:58Speaker 3: We were talking in Alabama before the live show. I
- 19:00Speaker 3: would love to feel the wrath of Kirkmanahan, like losing
- 19:02Speaker 3: his ship on me.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:04Speaker 3: I would appreciate that moment of just not where I'm
- 19:07Speaker 3: being the bad guy, but like he's getting worked up
- 19:09Speaker 3: and was say, hey, what's the big deal and then
- 19:10Speaker 3: he just fucking I'm the person that he decides to
- 19:13Speaker 3: go in on even though I've done nothing to him.
- 19:15Speaker 3: I would enjoy.
- 19:16Speaker 1: He'd find an angle I don't think. I don't think.
- 19:18Speaker 1: You just ah, maybe you'd be able to smoke him out,
- 19:20Speaker 1: but he'd find an angle, he'd find it, he'd find
- 19:23Speaker 1: an well.
- 19:23Speaker 3: When I was watching Barstool Survivor, it seemed like he
- 19:26Speaker 3: just took whatever angle he wanted.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Yeah, but he'll find he'll find He'll find him in
- 19:30Speaker 1: there in their moments, and then that's when he gets you.
- 19:32Speaker 3: That's how he snipes you.
- 19:33Speaker 1: That's how he snipes you. Bro.
- 19:35Speaker 3: God, that Barsool Survivor thing would be a fun thing
- 19:38Speaker 3: to do.
- 19:38Speaker 1: I think they're working on trying to get another one going.
- 19:40Speaker 3: I'm down.
- 19:41Speaker 1: I know you're on the way.
- 19:42Speaker 3: They've asked me for you if I want to do it.
- 19:43Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, I would absolutely do it. I
- 19:44Speaker 3: think that'd be a lot of fun. I think it'd
- 19:46Speaker 3: be fun if you were there biz with I know,
- 19:52Speaker 3: I'm not trying.
- 19:53Speaker 1: To be in the office for I'm telling you it
- 19:56Speaker 1: is kind of a bas bro.
- 19:57Speaker 3: Is maybe the most underrated Barstool talent.
- 20:01Speaker 1: I don't know if he's underrated. I think he's He's
- 20:03Speaker 1: probably right, Yeah, I mean he's well on the Name
- 20:05Speaker 1: Show with.
- 20:06Speaker 3: Day Yeah, I just whatever, I'm around him, I'm just like,
- 20:08Speaker 3: what I like. The reason why I think he's underrated
- 20:10Speaker 3: is when I get around with I enjoy myself more
- 20:14Speaker 3: than I expect to enjoy myself, you know what I'm saying.
- 20:17Speaker 3: Like I get there, I'm like, Oh, we're gonna we're
- 20:18Speaker 3: gonna do a standbager with the boys. Oh, that'll be fun.
- 20:20Speaker 3: I don't like golf, but it'll be fun to hang
- 20:22Speaker 3: out the boys. And then I can sit with winn
- 20:23Speaker 3: a cart for nine holes and I'm like, this is
- 20:25Speaker 3: way more fun than I expected.
- 20:26Speaker 1: Yeah, is funny man the best, the best self deprecating,
- 20:31Speaker 1: that's the best humor.
- 20:32Speaker 6: Absolutely, I think before you get away from people roasting
- 20:35Speaker 6: each other, it's probably the perfect segue for.
- 20:38Speaker 3: The Tom Brady roast. Yes, no, this is the screen.

- 22:03Speaker 3: The over under reminded me of you and I were
- 22:05Speaker 3: tagged in the video of this high school kid who
- 22:08Speaker 3: drank five bottles of water in under twenty seconds.
- 22:11Speaker 1: Oh, I saw that. You saw that. I mean, I'm
- 22:13Speaker 1: not telling it. I'm not touching him.
- 22:15Speaker 3: Jack. I'm gonna send this to you and then can
- 22:17Speaker 3: you put it? Put it up real quick, because I.
- 22:19Speaker 1: Think we need it. It's insane. He basically he basically
- 22:21Speaker 1: sits there and he has the five waters, and I
- 22:24Speaker 1: think that he wasn't allowed to do it at school,
- 22:27Speaker 1: like the teachers like, yeah, yeah, teacher, they had to
- 22:29Speaker 1: go off, they had to go off scripting. He challenges
- 22:31Speaker 1: like me, Taylor, and I think.
- 22:32Speaker 3: It's a little jack too.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Kids got a little muscle, a bit of a specimen. Yeah,
- 22:36Speaker 1: he challenges like me, Taylor and McAfee. Yeah, he's got
- 22:41Speaker 1: five waters lined up, five bottles of water and he
- 22:43Speaker 1: basically just goes Jack. I did.
- 22:45Speaker 3: I I saw all five of Yes, all five of them.
- 22:49Speaker 3: This is the kid right here.
- 22:51Speaker 4: All right, So I was not able to do this
- 22:53Speaker 4: at my school's talent show.
- 22:54Speaker 6: If you're not allowed to do this, all.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Right, even the leave it's a talent. Today, I'm gonna
- 23:01Speaker 1: be doing the five water bottle.
- 23:02Speaker 4: Chug I nominate Taylor Lewan, Will Compton and Pat McAfee
- 23:06Speaker 4: to try this challenge.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Rules are pretty simple.
- 23:08Speaker 4: Down the water on my guest, Sean, just on me,
- 23:12Speaker 4: on me, very thank you one.
- 23:23Speaker 2: That's good.
- 23:30Speaker 7: Oh my god, get a twenty seconds.
- 23:45Speaker 1: Again.
- 23:45Speaker 3: You got a little shoulders on him. He knows what
- 23:48Speaker 3: he's doing with the one size too small and the
- 23:49Speaker 3: T shirt too Bro obviously plays the middle linebacker.
- 23:53Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I've heard video.
- 23:57Speaker 3: Oh it's four bottles.
- 23:58Speaker 1: You can just play it though, like as talking, now,
- 24:00Speaker 1: cut us out and just play this video.
- 24:02Speaker 3: Yeah you can see. Look and I like his technique.
- 24:06Speaker 3: But here's what he does. He does a really good
- 24:08Speaker 3: job of hiding the entire bottle. See when he crushes it,
- 24:10Speaker 3: you don't know if he's taking all that. There's probably
- 24:12Speaker 3: a couple of ounces in there. That's the cheat code.
- 24:15Speaker 1: I don't know, Bro, he's fucking squeezing the life out
- 24:17Speaker 1: of him.
- 24:19Speaker 3: But I think we should try this, I mean, I
- 24:21Speaker 3: I commented.
- 24:24Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I'll do it. I'll fucking put him
- 24:29Speaker 1: to rest. Hey, you might have met your maker. Bro.
- 24:33Speaker 3: That's fast. That's fast.
- 24:36Speaker 1: There's also water, so meaning much easier.
- 24:41Speaker 4: To know if he threw up afterwards.
- 24:42Speaker 3: Yeah, I gotta know if he threw up afterwards. Water,
- 24:44Speaker 3: anything that's not carbonated is obviously easier to drink because
- 24:49Speaker 3: the carbonation will kind of float float up your tube
- 24:51Speaker 3: a little bit.
- 24:52Speaker 1: That's right, Because the way you put down that twisted
- 24:53Speaker 1: tea and then it kind of just came out of
- 24:54Speaker 1: your nose, it was so fast.
- 24:55Speaker 3: Yeah, I had that deviated septum.
- 24:57Speaker 1: Yeah, but it does.
- 24:59Speaker 3: That happens all the time to me, even doing beer.
- 25:02Speaker 1: He like, put it down. It's just dude, the close
- 25:05Speaker 1: up JP.
- 25:05Speaker 3: You cut that clip from Alabama Live Show. Dude, that
- 25:09Speaker 3: was I knew something came out, but I didn't know
- 25:12Speaker 3: drained out. It looked like that like a oil. It's
- 25:14Speaker 3: called like a netty pot you put in your nose,
- 25:17Speaker 3: it just kind of comes out. That's what it's like
- 25:19Speaker 3: for my nose.
- 25:19Speaker 1: But it was literally like and then you had a
- 25:20Speaker 1: certain look on your face, like if you're in a
- 25:22Speaker 1: horror film and you just look over at your buddy,
- 25:23Speaker 1: what's happening in Taylor and you just kind of stand
- 25:25Speaker 1: there and ship just pours out of your nose.
- 25:28Speaker 3: You guys were going, oh, And I was like.
- 25:30Speaker 1: What happened the roast of Tom Brady. I haven't got
- 25:34Speaker 1: to watch. I know I want to see, but I've
- 25:37Speaker 1: seen a lot of the clips on the internet. What
- 25:39Speaker 1: a night that must have been with the boys. I know.
- 25:42Speaker 3: Fights was there too, Yeah, I think I saw a
- 25:44Speaker 3: picture of him. Yeah there, Yeah, rich Eisen.

- 25:51Speaker 3: Uh Burton?
- 25:52Speaker 1: Tom Burton? Tom sneaking in there?
- 25:55Speaker 3: But when they look at this, gosh, dude, that clip
- 26:00Speaker 3: you just had up, Jack, I saw well. When I
- 26:02Speaker 3: saw Will this morning, I was like, hey, that's a
- 26:04Speaker 3: nice little post you had about real in the nine
- 26:06Speaker 3: days guy I spent together, and Will was talking about
- 26:08Speaker 3: how he was tearing up even right in the past.
- 26:11Speaker 1: Yeah, boy was kind of jerking the tears a little bit.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Making that made you cry on your own videos.
- 26:15Speaker 3: It's wild how your kids will just make you cry
- 26:17Speaker 3: for no reason.
- 26:18Speaker 1: It just turned you into a pussy dude.
- 26:20Speaker 3: Yeah, baytime, puss, dude, puss.

- 29:15Speaker 3: in a right And Tom Brady pulls a Will Smith
- 29:20Speaker 3: and walks up and whispers and Jeff Ross's ear cut
- 29:22Speaker 3: that ship out and you can hear him over the mic.
- 29:24Speaker 2: So that's all I was gonna ask. Do you think
- 29:25Speaker 2: it was real?
- 29:26Speaker 1: Do you think That's what I'm curious about, wonder? That's
- 29:28Speaker 1: why I asked, did it seem like it was real?
- 29:31Speaker 3: And the thing that we have to I'll have to
- 29:33Speaker 3: watch like the real I'll have to watch the whole
- 29:34Speaker 3: thing through. But all the clips I saw whenever they
- 29:36Speaker 3: panned Tom he's kind of doing the uncomfortable like not
- 29:40Speaker 3: like he feels uncomfortable in his own skin type of thing.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Click that hyperlink up there with the confrontation with Jeff Ross.
- 29:46Speaker 1: Maybe it'll have that video. I think he's playing.
- 29:49Speaker 3: You think he's playing.
- 29:49Speaker 1: I think he's playing. Yeah, I think he's I think
- 29:52Speaker 1: he's playing right there. That was like Tom, like, yeah,
- 29:56Speaker 1: just coming to coming to bat for his guy.
- 29:58Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that is a it's a deal, and
- 30:00Speaker 3: that's amazing too. Held that whole Robert Craft massage thing
- 30:03Speaker 3: kind of it was like in the news for twenty
- 30:05Speaker 3: four hours. It was a quick little deal.
- 30:08Speaker 1: Yeah, bro, I'm watching. I'll save my shout out. But hey,
- 30:11Speaker 1: the cats at the top man, it's you know you
- 30:15Speaker 1: they're untouchable.
- 30:17Speaker 3: Oh conspiracy, not conspiracy, it's just I'm yeah.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Yeah, they're just I just think untouchable.
- 30:24Speaker 2: What about the flake gate?
- 30:26Speaker 6: Do you see that joke?
- 30:27Speaker 1: No? Oh see, that's why I hate it because I
- 30:32Speaker 1: want to watch it and I can't wait to talk
- 30:35Speaker 1: some shows because I'm stuck right now. And that's the
- 30:38Speaker 1: only reason why I wasn't watching this, because I was like,
- 30:40Speaker 1: I gotta get this show, and dude, I'm binging it
- 30:42Speaker 1: hard right now.
- 30:42Speaker 3: I was laying in bed last night, I thought I
- 30:44Speaker 3: should put this on for the show tomorrow.
- 30:46Speaker 1: Do you want me to? Yeah? Yeah, sure. Oh he
- 30:53Speaker 1: admits to the flay Gate the uh, and that he
- 30:57Speaker 1: the flay Gate's real. But Bill Bill steps up and
- 31:01Speaker 1: he's like, uh, I'm excited to be here at Tom
- 31:04Speaker 1: Brady's roast, not to be confused with the ten part
- 31:07Speaker 1: docu series on the Roast of Bill Belichick. I once
- 31:10Speaker 1: started laughing at that Craft is sitting there because that
- 31:14Speaker 1: was like a hit job on old Bill Belichick. Everybody's
- 31:16Speaker 1: I feel not every When I say everybody, I mean
- 31:18Speaker 1: like players I feel like have been vocal about like
- 31:20Speaker 1: they hated the way the docu the docu series was.
- 31:23Speaker 1: I personally loved the Dynasty Docks years because I'm not
- 31:26Speaker 1: like a Boston like, you know, growing up in the
- 31:28Speaker 1: Middle West. You don't see all the Northeas stuff like
- 31:31Speaker 1: how everything was shaken up back in the early two thousands.
- 31:33Speaker 1: So I thought it was a cool, like look inside
- 31:35Speaker 1: of everything. But then once you get to the end
- 31:37Speaker 1: of it and you see Julian Edelman and all these
- 31:38Speaker 1: players kind of talking about it. You see that it
- 31:41Speaker 1: was like a like a like a hit job on Bill.
- 31:43Speaker 1: And then Kraft I want to say, either at the
- 31:45Speaker 1: head the owners the Owner's summone or something to where
- 31:49Speaker 1: they're kind of interviewing him, and he's like, oh, I
- 31:51Speaker 1: kind of hate the way that they portrayed Bill. And
- 31:53Speaker 1: it's like, Bro, you you for sure signed off on
- 31:56Speaker 1: every episode before it went out there.
- 31:59Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting how big this country is and how
- 32:01Speaker 3: you kind of like in your own little your own
- 32:03Speaker 3: little area based on where you grew up. And because
- 32:06Speaker 3: when you and I watch it and all of us,
- 32:08Speaker 3: I think we all really enjoyed the Dynasty docuseries. But
- 32:11Speaker 3: then you talk to people that are like like Dave,
- 32:13Speaker 3: we talked to him at UFC two nine.
- 32:14Speaker 1: He hated it.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Edelman didn't like it. People that were in that world
- 32:17Speaker 3: and have been a part of that world since this
- 32:19Speaker 3: Dynasty started seem like there's a consensus that they don't
- 32:22Speaker 3: like it very much. Yeah, Yeah, compared to us who
- 32:25Speaker 3: just watch it are like kind of like, oh my god,
- 32:27Speaker 3: this is fucking insane.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Yeah, which I kind of feel. I kind of feel
- 32:30Speaker 1: the aspect of like they won a lot of Super
- 32:32Speaker 1: Bowls and football games, obviously, but they seem to always
- 32:34Speaker 1: talk about the down times and the down years. They
- 32:36Speaker 1: kind of fast hoard or skip through when they won.
- 32:39Speaker 1: So I get that, but did so them docu series?
- 32:42Speaker 1: It seems like it's just hard to hit, hit or
- 32:44Speaker 1: miss on. Like everybody hated the Florida Gators one.
- 32:47Speaker 3: Well, that one was bad. Now the Florida the Swamp
- 32:50Speaker 3: what was it called swamp Kings, Swamp swamp Kings there
- 32:54Speaker 3: is it should have been a five part series. They're
- 32:56Speaker 3: trying to put all that information with all those characters
- 32:59Speaker 3: at the Florida in a forty five minute episode is
- 33:02Speaker 3: just not doing your service. You don't even touch on
- 33:04Speaker 3: the Aaron Hernandez stuff, you know, like you hardly touch
- 33:07Speaker 3: on half the things. So it kind of becomes that
- 33:10Speaker 3: could have been way better. The problem is is the
- 33:12Speaker 3: Last Dance with Michael Jordan is one of the best
- 33:14Speaker 3: documentaries I've ever seen, and how people are trying to
- 33:15Speaker 3: redo that and the Dynasty could have been that. It
- 33:18Speaker 3: could have absolutely been that if they would have just
- 33:20Speaker 3: taken the time to check every single box, because in
- 33:23Speaker 3: the Last Dance they do such a great job of
- 33:26Speaker 3: talking about the highs and the lows and finding the
- 33:28Speaker 3: balance there, of showing like the struggle of how it
- 33:30Speaker 3: got there, but also like this dude Michael Jordan, who
- 33:33Speaker 3: like was not taking no for an answer at all,
- 33:35Speaker 3: like how he was an asshole to people, And that
- 33:37Speaker 3: is Michael Jordan looking at an iPad be like I
- 33:39Speaker 3: took that personally seventeen times. Like they did such an
- 33:42Speaker 3: amazing job. I've literally seen that documentary. I think I've
- 33:44Speaker 3: rewatched it twice.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good one. Yeah. And with the Jordan one,
- 33:48Speaker 1: I mean that's decades after he's done playing. Like this
- 33:50Speaker 1: one's fresh out of the gates and out of the game.
- 33:52Speaker 1: Is obviously going to be some politicking going on. I
- 33:54Speaker 1: feel like, so maybe a little bit of rush, you think, Yeah,
- 33:56Speaker 1: I think so. And again it's it's more from one
- 33:59Speaker 1: it's more from one angle, and it's fresh. It's like
- 34:01Speaker 1: the Jordan one you got to your years that went
- 34:04Speaker 1: by and then I'm sure people were just the writers
- 34:07Speaker 1: and the content team and the creative team were just
- 34:10Speaker 1: dialed in on how they wanted to tell the story.
- 34:12Speaker 3: And it's over one guy, right, versus like an entire organization. Yeah,
- 34:17Speaker 3: But that's the thing is like if Tom Brady, this
- 34:19Speaker 3: is Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft, and if
- 34:22Speaker 3: you were to take maybe a few more years and
- 34:25Speaker 3: able to like surround all the storylines together and lay
- 34:28Speaker 3: it out great as far as like you're saying, like
- 34:30Speaker 3: not just put it down so quickly, it would have
- 34:33Speaker 3: been such a better product. The one thing that I
- 34:35Speaker 3: thought they did really well was quarterbacks this past year.
- 34:38Speaker 3: Omaha Productions and Netflix did that. I can't wait to
- 34:41Speaker 3: see receiver this year. The receiver is going to be elite.
- 34:46Speaker 3: Are they also also they're starting a new one season
- 34:49Speaker 3: of receiver and they're doing the second season a quarterback.
- 34:52Speaker 3: What they need to do is tight ends. Do you
- 34:54Speaker 3: have so many tight end personal right now?
- 34:56Speaker 1: George is in it is Travis Kittle, Yeah, George Kittle
- 35:03Speaker 1: is in receiver.
- 35:03Speaker 3: Yeah, George is doing a great job of creating that brand.
- 35:07Speaker 6: They need it.
- 35:08Speaker 1: They need to do. They need to get some hogs. Yeah,
- 35:11Speaker 1: I just know what I mean. It's just so yeah,
- 35:15Speaker 1: it's just some big boys. But it's probably would probably
- 35:18Speaker 1: be so hard to like garner content from it because
- 35:20Speaker 1: the big boys they just.
- 35:23Speaker 3: They don't want to They don't want to talk. It is.
- 35:24Speaker 1: I don't want to get out there like that. I
- 35:26Speaker 1: don't care.
- 35:27Speaker 3: No, it's it's changing, It really is. There's a changing
- 35:29Speaker 3: of the guard right now of like the older generation
- 35:32Speaker 3: the new generation where offensive linemen are really starting to talk,
- 35:34Speaker 3: really starting to find their personalities. And I think it's
- 35:37Speaker 3: going to be in the next couple of years you'll
- 35:39Speaker 3: have that opportunity to do like an offensive line thing.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 35:43Speaker 3: Probably no. I oh, it's like I think, sitting here
- 35:49Speaker 3: right now, yes, like right, my personality right now, how
- 35:52Speaker 3: I've like zoomed out of football. I think it had
- 35:55Speaker 3: been really difficult for me if I was like week
- 35:57Speaker 3: four into the season and having a tough game, or
- 36:00Speaker 3: you know how it is when coaches are always kind
- 36:02Speaker 3: of on you and always being like that's not good enough,
- 36:04Speaker 3: that's not good enough, and to think, oh, this is
- 36:06Speaker 3: getting filmed. I think I would really I would have
- 36:08Speaker 3: really struggled with that, finding a balance of like keeping
- 36:12Speaker 3: the same you know, attitude every single day.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Right, but Devil's advocate. By that point, you'd have already
- 36:20Speaker 1: signed the dotted line to do it, because you don't
- 36:22Speaker 1: know you're having those trials and tribulations.
- 36:24Speaker 3: I think in the off season, you'd catch me and
- 36:25Speaker 3: I'd say yes, yeah, and I got in the middle
- 36:27Speaker 3: of the season, I'd be like, why the fuck did
- 36:28Speaker 3: I do this?
- 36:29Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be.
- 36:29Speaker 3: It would be because it's such a it's warfare mentally
- 36:33Speaker 3: and physically the entire football season.
- 36:35Speaker 1: That would be so dood, But it still comes out
- 36:36Speaker 1: as a positive. Yeah, it's a lot of it's a lot.
- 36:39Speaker 1: It's a lot of things that people don't see.
- 36:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I would have I would probably do it. I
- 36:43Speaker 3: would most likely do it, but I would just sitting
- 36:48Speaker 3: here now, I think, knowing my mental state back then
- 36:51Speaker 3: and how it was all ball all the time, I
- 36:52Speaker 3: would have a more difficulty. I had a hard time
- 36:55Speaker 3: doing this show during while I was playing, and that
- 36:56Speaker 3: was once a week.
- 36:57Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean we were doing it for three years. Yeah,
- 37:01Speaker 1: it would be.
- 37:01Speaker 3: It would be a hard thing.
- 37:02Speaker 1: You would have done. You would have done Hogs, You
- 37:04Speaker 1: would have done Hawks, Yeah, you would have done Hawks.
- 37:06Speaker 3: Who would have been who would be in it right now? Hoggs?
- 37:10Speaker 3: Like right now, Lane Johnson, Trent Williams, Jason Kelsey, Jason
- 37:15Speaker 3: he's retired.
- 37:16Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right, he said, right now.
- 37:23Speaker 3: Zach. Dude, Zach doesn't really talk.
- 37:26Speaker 1: Do you think Quent Nelson would do it?
- 37:27Speaker 3: I think he would, I do. I think Quentin would
- 37:30Speaker 3: be really good. That's a good one. We'll put him
- 37:31Speaker 3: in there. He's my boys in limbo right now. Would
- 37:37Speaker 3: be fantastic. If he was old Packer's Block right now,
- 37:41Speaker 3: he'd be a perfect candidate for it. You know what
- 37:42Speaker 3: I think would be a good candidate is oh Dean Dawkins.
- 37:47Speaker 1: Yeah, he wills.
- 37:48Speaker 3: There's four and I think one more. You throw in
- 37:50Speaker 3: like a Lamby Tunsil now you have big names. Lamby
- 37:54Speaker 3: loves fashion. He's a good ball player. I don't know
- 37:56Speaker 3: his personality very well, but I know Dean would do
- 37:58Speaker 3: a phenomenal job. Bach Man, Yeah, here's some more cats
- 38:02Speaker 3: right here. Tristan would be good. Pinay, I dude, so
- 38:08Speaker 3: pinay swell. I don't know a whole lot about this cat.
- 38:12Speaker 3: I haven't seen a whole lot about his film is
- 38:13Speaker 3: as he says, pa suwel, but he apparently talking to
- 38:19Speaker 3: like a couple of lines guys, says he's the best dude. Really, Yeah,
- 38:22Speaker 3: he's like one of the greatest cats. Awesome to be around,
- 38:25Speaker 3: hard work, just on a massive deal. I think twenty
- 38:27Speaker 3: three million a year. Yeah, he's big dog, big dog
- 38:30Speaker 3: deal playing RT too, Yeah, which is impressive.
- 38:33Speaker 4: So I think he'd be good.
- 38:36Speaker 3: Yeah, Jordan would be really good. But I think if
- 38:39Speaker 3: you had to pick between Jordan and Lane, who you
- 38:41Speaker 3: taking because you don't want two guys in the same team.
- 38:45Speaker 4: A family friendly events.
- 38:46Speaker 3: Jordan over Lane because he does.
- 38:48Speaker 4: He was huge with the singing for Jason's album last year.
- 38:53Speaker 3: I'll tell you that.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Every time and Polynesian you check the box. Yeah, I'm
- 39:00Speaker 1: saying you gotta have one, you know what I mean.
- 39:03Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, most of the dudes we've said are black
- 39:05Speaker 3: or checking the box.
- 39:07Speaker 1: True.
- 39:08Speaker 3: So if any we need more white guys.
- 39:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you can't go wrong with either ones.
- 39:14Speaker 3: Both great guys, both great guys. I don't know Jordan's
- 39:18Speaker 3: very well. But what about Shawn Slater? Do you know
- 39:21Speaker 3: anything about him?
- 39:22Speaker 1: No, I don't. I know.
- 39:23Speaker 3: He's a good ballplayer, had a bicep last year. They
- 39:27Speaker 3: need to do rookies.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Just called the rookie, call it rookie.
- 39:32Speaker 3: Yeah, that might be a bust with the boys production.
- 39:37Speaker 3: Ronnie Stanley too, I think he would do really well.
- 39:40Speaker 3: I think he would do well.
- 39:42Speaker 1: JJ Watt. Did you see that he's still open to
- 39:45Speaker 1: return to the NFL.
- 39:46Speaker 3: No, I didn't see that until they pulled up the.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Arm You noticed. You noticed that he sees the boys.
- 39:51Speaker 1: We have our private jet.
- 39:52Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be our private jets on that plane.
- 39:59Speaker 1: He said. Last he told Demiko, don't call unless you
- 40:02Speaker 1: absolutely need it. But if you ever do call, I'll
- 40:04Speaker 1: be there. And he knows not to call unless he
- 40:06Speaker 1: absolutely needs it. This is the last year. I'll tell
- 40:09Speaker 1: him that because I'm not going to keep training the
- 40:10Speaker 1: way I've been training. But he knows that if if
- 40:12Speaker 1: he ever truly does need it, I'll be there for him.
- 40:16Speaker 1: I mean, I don't anticipate it happening. They've got a
- 40:19Speaker 1: very good group. So you think you think you think
- 40:24Speaker 1: he's returned. I mean if the depth.
- 40:27Speaker 3: Based on that quote, I would say, yeah, absolutely. If
- 40:29Speaker 3: they had a bunch of injuries and it was week
- 40:31Speaker 3: five or something like that, call him in, get him
- 40:33Speaker 3: a couple of weeks to warm up and get like
- 40:34Speaker 3: back in the basics, and you get after it.
- 40:36Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, because he's been more open. I mean you
- 40:38Speaker 1: can see he goes on the Pat mcavee show. He's
- 40:41Speaker 1: is a tweet game has been getting out there a
- 40:43Speaker 1: little bit more. He's tweeting a lot more. And you
- 40:44Speaker 1: see he's still ask to grass with a lot of
- 40:46Speaker 1: weight on his back. Yeah, so you know he's still training.
- 40:48Speaker 3: He's training. He looks fantastic too. Yeah, he looks great.
- 40:52Speaker 3: And I wonder if it's setting in that, like, Okay,
- 40:53Speaker 3: football is over. I mean, he's got all the opportunities
- 40:56Speaker 3: in the world, but still there's always a piece of
- 40:58Speaker 3: you that's like, man, could I still do it?
- 41:00Speaker 1: When you're juggling all those things off the field, and
- 41:02Speaker 1: if you get later in the year and the depth
- 41:04Speaker 1: of drugg and you could make a return on a
- 41:06Speaker 1: good squad.
- 41:07Speaker 3: And the Texans are contenders this.
- 41:09Speaker 1: Year, even the branding and everything you're doing on the field, like.
- 41:12Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you get the prodigal son returns to Houston
- 41:16Speaker 3: for one last ride. There's a documentary in its own
- 41:19Speaker 3: right there, Netflix's own Watt. Yeah, yeah, I think I
- 41:25Speaker 3: think he could absolutely do it. I mean you look
- 41:27Speaker 3: it in the last couple of years at the Cardinals,
- 41:29Speaker 3: like he wasn't J. J. Watt of Houston, but still
- 41:32Speaker 3: very slippery, still did a great job of rushing the
- 41:35Speaker 3: passer like he was. He was still he could still
- 41:38Speaker 3: have played in the NFL this past year and been
- 41:41Speaker 3: and been a guy you circle and be like, listen,
- 41:43Speaker 3: he might be older, but he's still a cat that
- 41:44Speaker 3: you got to worry about.
- 41:45Speaker 1: He's still disruptive.
- 41:46Speaker 3: Disruptive, plays hard, gives effort. So yeah, I mean first
- 41:51Speaker 3: and last out.
- 41:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 41:53Speaker 3: I think the leadership too, because Houston. I think I
- 41:55Speaker 3: have to look more at the depth chart, but Houston
- 41:57Speaker 3: seems like they're squad that is extremely talented but young,
- 42:02Speaker 3: really young. They have a lot of young talent there.
- 42:04Speaker 3: And if you brought in a leadership guy like like
- 42:06Speaker 3: JJ Watt and might be taking him.
- 42:08Speaker 1: Over the edge, Houston might win it all this year.
- 42:11Speaker 3: They that's that's a shitty thing, is they might.
- 42:13Speaker 1: Do what I think that was your early prediction. Yeah,
- 42:17Speaker 1: I do. I think Houston's got all. Now. Look, I
- 42:19Speaker 1: think the other day I was watching the divisional round
- 42:22Speaker 1: Niners versus Packers, watching the Packers just kind of blow
- 42:26Speaker 1: it there in the last time you watching film, Yeah, like, dude,
- 42:30Speaker 1: God bless her. But if we're not watching Miss Rachel,
- 42:32Speaker 1: if I'm like, oh no, you know, we'll watch Miss
- 42:34Speaker 1: Rachel later or whatever. She'll literally say football. So I'll
- 42:37Speaker 1: go on. I'll be like, oh, you want to watch football?
- 42:39Speaker 1: And I'm just thinking, like there's no football on and
- 42:41Speaker 1: the NFL Network Divisional Round Niners Packers, and we're just
- 42:44Speaker 1: sitting there watching football and uh. But anyway, the Niners,
- 42:51Speaker 1: they have to win this year, like their window of
- 42:54Speaker 1: having all these players is obviously closing, I know, and
- 42:58Speaker 1: they have such a core unit that it's all or
- 43:02Speaker 1: nothing this year. I think it's been all or nothing
- 43:04Speaker 1: from the last cop, you know, losing a couple quarterbacks
- 43:07Speaker 1: two years ago. Obviously, this past year was like it
- 43:10Speaker 1: doesn't matter unless they win the whole thing and they
- 43:12Speaker 1: get to the Super Bowl and then fortunately lost to
- 43:14Speaker 1: the fucking Chiefs. But this year, I think, like having
- 43:16Speaker 1: that group together, like they have one more shot.
- 43:18Speaker 3: If you're playing in the scenario of the forty nine
- 43:20Speaker 3: ers and they're in the Super Bowl, the team that
- 43:23Speaker 3: they should play is the Chiefs. Chiefs have won two
- 43:27Speaker 3: in a row. Chiefs. I don't think I'll get back
- 43:30Speaker 3: stop dude, U K, I guess we'll see.
- 43:35Speaker 1: I think Houston. I think Houston is the team in
- 43:37Speaker 1: the AFC.
- 43:39Speaker 3: Houston, Baltimore Baltimore's is nasty. Don't sleep on the Steelers.
- 43:45Speaker 3: They have Arthur Smith at OC right now. Tennessee is
- 43:48Speaker 3: brewing up a squad right now.
- 43:50Speaker 1: They're brewing, but it's not gonna be this.
- 43:52Speaker 3: If you would have ranked AFC South right now, if
- 43:54Speaker 3: you never know, Jack, you never know. If you're looking
- 43:59Speaker 3: at the AFC South, this is how would rank AFC
- 44:01Speaker 3: South right now? You gotta put Houston at one.
- 44:04Speaker 6: Have to.
- 44:05Speaker 3: Then you put the Titans at two, I don't know.
- 44:07Speaker 3: And then you put the Colts at three, and the
- 44:09Speaker 3: Jags are in four.
- 44:10Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't I don't know if that's
- 44:12Speaker 1: that's right.
- 44:14Speaker 2: Bro.
- 44:14Speaker 3: We were in there with Callahan, you saw the boys.
- 44:17Speaker 1: I would go, I would go Houston, I would go Colts.
- 44:21Speaker 1: Then I would go Titans in Jacksonville.
- 44:23Speaker 3: But Jacksonville's four.
- 44:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the AFC South is a very tough division.
- 44:29Speaker 3: Now, Yes, absolutely, like CJ. Stroud, Trevor Lawrence Young, Will Levis, Yes, dude,
- 44:36Speaker 3: it's just and I'm telling you, bro, here's the exciting thing.
- 44:39Speaker 3: If you're if you're a Tennessee Titans fan watching this
- 44:41Speaker 3: podcast right now, let me get you pumped up a
- 44:42Speaker 3: little bit. The last ten years of your life, you've
- 44:45Speaker 3: been seeing ground and pound. Please God, let Derrick Henry
- 44:48Speaker 3: break one and we're gonna help. We're gonna out defense
- 44:50Speaker 3: these guys. Essentially, this is football of the nineties. We
- 44:54Speaker 3: are now transitioning into high flying air raid. Put points
- 44:57Speaker 3: on the board. We're gonna score more points than you.
- 45:00Speaker 3: That's what That's what the Titans are going to try
- 45:01Speaker 3: to be this year. I'm Calvin Ridley, DeAndre Hopkins hope
- 45:05Speaker 3: to God, who's the kid that we drafted? And Traylon
- 45:08Speaker 3: Burke's hope to God he has a year, pray for it.
- 45:11Speaker 3: I'm still I'm still gonna sing Kyle Phillips's praises if
- 45:15Speaker 3: he can stay healthy. The kids got talent, You got
- 45:18Speaker 3: Chig and the have an offensive line that you're building together.
- 45:21Speaker 3: You just pay a center fifty million dollars. You got
- 45:23Speaker 3: yourself a left tackle. NFP is getting to his third year.
- 45:26Speaker 3: He's coming off injury, but his third year. You drafted
- 45:29Speaker 3: a guy in the first round at left guard. You
- 45:32Speaker 3: have the tools on offense to be successful. You take
- 45:35Speaker 3: a kid that that dude from Texas, what's his name,
- 45:38Speaker 3: Think Devondre Sweat to Andre Sweat, yeh Autland Trophy winner.
- 45:45Speaker 3: He literally says himself, if I can lose weight, I'll
- 45:47Speaker 3: be a Hall of Famer. That's terrifying. By the way,
- 45:49Speaker 3: if you're a Titans fan, you just need this guy.
- 45:51Speaker 3: If you know your only issue to not make it
- 45:53Speaker 3: to the Hall of Fame is something that you control. Brother,
- 45:55Speaker 3: you got to get your shit together then and then
- 45:57Speaker 3: we get done then with Jeff and I think as
- 46:01Speaker 3: much as Jeff and I have had our disagreements and
- 46:04Speaker 3: my opinions about Jeff, Jeff is going to bully the
- 46:07Speaker 3: Sweat kid into being in shape. I've seen him do
- 46:10Speaker 3: with other defensive lineman. He's gonna hold him to a standard,
- 46:12Speaker 3: and that kid's gonna have a good first year, I believe.
- 46:15Speaker 1: Yeah, so we.
- 46:16Speaker 3: Got you got Snead too from the Chiefs, who's all
- 46:19Speaker 3: pro last year.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 46:21Speaker 3: Yeah, Titan's got a squad keeping them at two. I'm
- 46:24Speaker 3: giving them a two for one.
- 46:27Speaker 1: You're right, you never know, like you don't know how
- 46:29Speaker 1: this scene is gonna shake up. I wouldn't be surprised
- 46:31Speaker 1: based on the coaching staff that they have and some
- 46:33Speaker 1: of the young talent. But I think the Houston Texans
- 46:36Speaker 1: bro are absolutely loaded and not to mention they got
- 46:39Speaker 1: two of the titans best defensive players last year. Yeah
- 46:42Speaker 1: it's Alsha here right, how here?
- 46:45Speaker 3: Indico Autry and Anico Autry, who is maybe the sleepiest
- 46:48Speaker 3: guy in the league that people sleep on constantly.
- 46:50Speaker 1: Yeah, bro, he's nasty. Nay got a squad. Let's talk

- 48:54Speaker 3: how do you even pronounce what?
- 48:55Speaker 1: That is? The beautiful thing about reading that ad is
- 48:59Speaker 1: I've been taking nutripole and I did. Really I did
- 49:02Speaker 1: take the hat off, and I'm moving my hair a
- 49:04Speaker 1: little bit because yeah, and I do feel like it works.
- 49:07Speaker 3: I love that.
- 49:08Speaker 1: What do you think? What do you think about my hairline?
- 49:11Speaker 3: I think, pull it back?
- 49:14Speaker 1: Don't do this to me?
- 49:14Speaker 3: Okay, then I won't they don't do don't do that
- 49:16Speaker 3: if it makes you uncomfortable. You got some peaks.

- 49:22Speaker 1: had some peaks for a long time.
- 49:24Speaker 3: So if you feel good about it, I do. If
- 49:27Speaker 3: you feel good about it, then I feel good about
- 49:28Speaker 3: Because the way you wear your hair, I would not
- 49:31Speaker 3: walk past you and be like that cat's bolding because.
- 49:34Speaker 1: Think about too, like hats are not good for pulling
- 49:36Speaker 1: on your pulling on your helmets. We've had said like,
- 49:39Speaker 1: I'm mid thirties now, bro.
- 49:41Speaker 3: I know they say I'm gonna literally pop a stat

- 49:46Speaker 3: but I heard by thirty six, if you haven't started,
- 49:49Speaker 3: it'll it won't happen. So I got a couple of years,
- 49:51Speaker 3: got a couple of years, really a year and a half.
- 49:53Speaker 3: Here's what I think. Here's what I think.
- 49:56Speaker 1: If you nutropole, if you.
- 49:59Speaker 3: Have a deal where we got to have a conversation,
- 50:01Speaker 3: do you want me to have that conversation with you?
- 50:05Speaker 3: Because I'm trying. It's a it's a hairy sea.
- 50:08Speaker 1: But I need it to be a group. I don't
- 50:09Speaker 1: need it to be like I need to know that
- 50:11Speaker 1: it's multiple people feeling this way right because I feel
- 50:13Speaker 1: like I have a very heightened sense of awareness when
- 50:16Speaker 1: it comes to my hairline to know, yeah, yeah, absolutely,
- 50:19Speaker 1: to know if like my shit's going bad or not?
- 50:21Speaker 4: Yeah, would you get the plugs?
- 50:22Speaker 1: Ever, I don't think you know. Nothing's off the table. Yeah, dude,

- 50:33Speaker 4: same thing.

- 50:37Speaker 3: just having the coldest sac with bandages on top of
- 50:41Speaker 3: their head, all flying back.
- 50:42Speaker 1: Here's the nuns up table. That is.
- 50:45Speaker 3: If that doesn't if that is it becomes an option
- 50:47Speaker 3: for you, I say do it.
- 50:50Speaker 1: Yeah, none's off the table, got you. There could be
- 50:53Speaker 1: a moment. Maybe I could be a shaved head kind
- 50:56Speaker 1: of guy. How's the shape of your head? I don't
- 50:59Speaker 1: know how.
- 50:59Speaker 3: I mean, you can't really tell it hair. I had
- 51:02Speaker 3: my head shaved for my rookie year because they gave
- 51:04Speaker 3: me a rookie haircut where they just kept like this
- 51:07Speaker 3: part right here and then shaved all of this and
- 51:08Speaker 3: kind of moved it around. It was really fucked up.
- 51:10Speaker 3: Wearing a hat looked fine, but then I had to
- 51:13Speaker 3: shave it after my after the fourth preseason game. I
- 51:16Speaker 3: just don't got a good shaped head.

- 51:31Speaker 1: Though, Oh well, it's it's it's that's just that's a fake.
- 51:34Speaker 1: I appreciate that's that. Yeah, that's a fake, imaginary worry.
- 51:37Speaker 1: It is.
- 51:38Speaker 3: Yes, but you see cats and you just wonder, hey,
- 51:41Speaker 3: if that happens to me. I hope that doesn't happen

- 55:34Speaker 1: Hey did you see uh OBJ sign with the Dolphins.
- 55:38Speaker 1: It's Miami boy.
- 55:39Speaker 3: I know I saw. The one thing I did see
- 55:41Speaker 3: on that was Jalen Ramsey saying last time they two
- 55:43Speaker 3: were both on the team.
- 55:45Speaker 1: Super Bowl towards towards a c L.
- 55:49Speaker 3: Yeah, that's tough, dude. One year deal worth four million
- 55:52Speaker 3: dollars with incentives to push it up to eight point
- 55:54Speaker 3: two five million. Man, I really want back them to
- 55:58Speaker 3: get g b O T I know, I want him
- 56:00Speaker 3: so bad, dude.
- 56:01Speaker 1: I think his uh I love his work ethic, bro.
- 56:06Speaker 1: I fel like the dude. Have you listened to him
- 56:08Speaker 1: on the pivot, Like the the ups and downs he said,
- 56:12Speaker 1: with his knees, with surgeries and stuff like that, and
- 56:14Speaker 1: still like being a guy at the peak of where
- 56:16Speaker 1: he was and still like loving the game and winning
- 56:19Speaker 1: to go play ball even though he's got a base
- 56:21Speaker 1: salary of three million up to eight point two you
- 56:23Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like he he was like at
- 56:25Speaker 1: the I mean he was at the top of the world.
- 56:28Speaker 3: I know he was. He was never one he wassentually
- 56:30Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes like that kind of star power. Yeah, when
- 56:33Speaker 3: he was in his prime The thing that I really
- 56:37Speaker 3: I just wish he could get back on track four
- 56:39Speaker 3: is because every human being I came across that played
- 56:41Speaker 3: with him at LSU or knew like put with him
- 56:44Speaker 3: in Giants or wherever, was like, this dude could be
- 56:46Speaker 3: professional at any sport, soccer, baseball, big time athletes, big
- 56:50Speaker 3: time athlete, like just has the genetics like that. Yeah,
- 56:53Speaker 3: and he's like just a he's just a stunt man.
- 56:56Speaker 1: And I feel like he's just a guy that you
- 56:58Speaker 1: start to like root for that he hasn't been that,
- 57:01Speaker 1: but you know, when when you're at the very tip
- 57:03Speaker 1: top and then you have antics on the sidelines and
- 57:05Speaker 1: everything else, it's very easy to you know, to comment
- 57:08Speaker 1: on the dramatic ship that he mad. Right, But in
- 57:11Speaker 1: the last few years the way he's just kind of
- 57:13Speaker 1: came on teams, kept his head down, like he's never
- 57:16Speaker 1: really been a distraction like the people like we would
- 57:19Speaker 1: have thought he probably could have been. I don't know,
- 57:21Speaker 1: I kind of fuck with him. Yeah, I don't really
- 57:24Speaker 1: know much about him other than like again, he's signing again.
- 57:27Speaker 1: It just seems like the boy loves the play ball.
- 57:29Speaker 3: You painted a really good picture too, because at one
- 57:31Speaker 3: point OBJ kind of became the villain, Like he lived
- 57:34Speaker 3: long enough to see him become the villain. And now
- 57:36Speaker 3: with the trials and tribulations and him just fighting a
- 57:39Speaker 3: good fight over and over again because he loves the
- 57:41Speaker 3: game so much, trying to get back on track, it
- 57:43Speaker 3: really makes you root for the guy.
- 57:45Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I just thought of that first class situation.
- 57:49Speaker 1: How I think that was last year, No, that.
- 57:51Speaker 3: Was two years ago.
- 57:52Speaker 1: I think he was.
- 57:53Speaker 3: He was, he was like sleep right.
- 57:55Speaker 1: It was, but you know, just a judge nuts.
- 58:01Speaker 3: Yeah, let that go, Yeah, throw that to the win,
- 58:04Speaker 3: let the breeze take it.
- 58:05Speaker 1: That's over. Yeah. But him, Tyreek Hill, Jayleen Waddle, you.
- 58:10Speaker 3: Know, I just wonder how many balls he's gonna get.
- 58:12Speaker 1: I don't think he I don't think it's like he
- 58:14Speaker 1: puts that much expectation on it. I think he does,
- 58:18Speaker 1: but I'm saying I think he's very aware of the
- 58:20Speaker 1: situation he's going into. You know, he knows the strength
- 58:22Speaker 1: of Tyreek Hill, Jalen like, you got Coach McDaniels, like,
- 58:26Speaker 1: I'm sure they're gonna find creative ways to get everybody
- 58:28Speaker 1: the ball, spread the ball around.
- 58:29Speaker 3: Yeah, Tyreech, just the dude. You got to feed over
- 58:32Speaker 3: and over again. The thing I wish Tyreek did was
- 58:34Speaker 3: hit that two thousand because he was on pace at
- 58:36Speaker 3: one point last year. Right, yeah, yeah, I want him
- 58:39Speaker 3: to get that so bad. Dude was crushing it. Hit segments.
- 58:42Speaker 1: Shout out, no free shout out.
- 58:44Speaker 3: You want to get that off your chest. Huh, you've been.

- 1:00:36Speaker 3: you found out at one point in your life, you
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: were a superhero, how many of us would actually go

- 1:00:44Speaker 3: at whatever we wanted.
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: To be good at.
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: Yeah, imagine if you had Superman's powers and we were

- 1:01:39Speaker 1: you know, in my opinion, a.
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: Little too much for the children.
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, a little too much. Like as as an
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: apparently watching like god, damn, why do they gotta write

- 1:07:09Speaker 5: One's a bit of a mouthful, but I think it's a.
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: Good I'm sure you'll handle it just fine, like you
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: always do.
- 1:07:14Speaker 5: You have twenty four hours to complete the following four activities,
- 1:07:17Speaker 5: run a mile, eat a donut, drink a beer, and
- 1:07:20Speaker 5: jerk off. The catch is you have to do each
- 1:07:23Speaker 5: of these activities and increments of six, twelve, eighteen, and
- 1:07:26Speaker 5: twenty four. So example, run six miles, eat twelve donuts,
- 1:07:31Speaker 5: drink eighteen beers, and jerk off twenty four times in
- 1:07:34Speaker 5: twenty four hours. What are you doing for each number.
- 1:07:41Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to put the I'm gonna have to
- 1:07:42Speaker 3: put the miles at six. I'mna start there. I'm gonna
- 1:07:50Speaker 3: eat twenty four donuts. I'm gonna drink was it six?
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: Twelve eighteen? I'll drink eight teen beers. I'm a jerk
- 1:08:02Speaker 3: off twelve times.
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: Fuck man, that's tough. I think you gotta go twenty
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: four donuts have to and it's what beers jerk off
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: in miles.
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: You have to run the miles.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: I think I'll go run run you can't walk it, okay,
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: I think I'll go eighteen beers twelve miles and jerk
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: off six times.
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: You ain running twelve miles, bro.
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: Bro over twenty four hours, a mile a mile, a
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: mile every two hours.
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, man, I'll be honest with you.
- 1:08:56Speaker 3: I don't know if you're doing that.
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: But I'm saying that this run.
- 1:09:00Speaker 4: It's hard to jerk off twelve times in a day
- 1:09:02Speaker 4: than it is to run twelve miles.
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, bro, jerk off twelve times one day.
- 1:09:09Speaker 4: I didn't think if you're gonna go run after.
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: That, I think, John, I think I'm using a good
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: number with the six, like I think that one. I
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: was thinking about going miles. I was thinking about going
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: more miles. But if it's in a twenty four hour period, may.
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: Be so tired after that, refeel with the beer and donuts.
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: You're right on my goat. No, I don't know. I
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: think twelve my max.
- 1:09:36Speaker 3: My max would even would be at twelve for miles.
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: I wouldn't be able to go farther than that.
- 1:09:41Speaker 5: I think I would just switch the beers in miles.
- 1:09:43Speaker 5: I would do eighteen miles and twelve beers.
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: I know, That's what I was thinking about too. But
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: eighteen miles again, twenty four hours a long time.
- 1:09:51Speaker 5: Like I mean, if you're like really running running, you
- 1:09:54Speaker 5: can run run like seven minutes, but then you're just
- 1:09:57Speaker 5: cooked cooked, but you slow that down and maybe do
- 1:10:01Speaker 5: like a ten minute mile. That's that's what I'm saying.
- 1:10:04Speaker 5: Like these miles, it's not like they have to be
- 1:10:06Speaker 5: run for an hour. Run for an hour and you
- 1:10:08Speaker 5: got what six miles done? Yeah, and then break and
- 1:10:12Speaker 5: then run for an hour again, you got another six miles.
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: Just zone to it up for twelve miles, not for
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: twelve miles straight I'm breaking them up. But yeah, I
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: think straight. JP probably could. I mean, Jp, I'm not
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: in any cardio shape.
- 1:10:27Speaker 6: But like my roommate, he just ran a half marathon
- 1:10:30Speaker 6: and he trained a little bit and he kept a
- 1:10:32Speaker 6: higher pace than I would do for it, but he
- 1:10:34Speaker 6: finished in like right at two hours, and that was
- 1:10:36Speaker 6: thirteen point one or whatever. That's two hours.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: Yeah, Like sitting.
- 1:10:42Speaker 6: She ran a marathon one r age group and it
- 1:10:46Speaker 6: was like three forty three forty five or something, right,
- 1:10:54Speaker 6: so you got the whole rest of the day for
- 1:10:55Speaker 6: all these other things, right, right, right, right right. Taylor
- 1:10:58Speaker 6: was locked on that twelve one. Though, that's only when
- 1:11:00Speaker 6: you didn't have to think.
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: Of Yeah, I think you hit an hour hour on
- 1:11:05Speaker 3: the hour, like seven, Yeah, you saw.
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: I'm not.
- 1:11:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm thinking about my stamina of my wrist in
- 1:11:16Speaker 3: my form, and I'm also thinking about how bad my
- 1:11:18Speaker 3: piece is gonna hurt too, right, bro, times dehydrated? Get fluids?
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: Like, have you ever came twelve times in a day?
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: No, I think my max I was a nasty little
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: thirteen year old. I maybe six, but I think I
- 1:11:35Speaker 3: think I'm floating those numbers pretty high.
- 1:11:37Speaker 4: Yeah, at the end, six is just like dust coming out.
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, I know for sure four maybe five, And
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: that's back in your It's back in your honiest days
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: of all time time. I said, I know for sure four.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: Maybe there was a fifth time in there at some point,
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: but I don't know.
- 1:11:56Speaker 3: My numbers are inflated. I think I'm four or five
- 1:11:58Speaker 3: as well.
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: And again that's that's back in your horniest times.
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: Bro. All right, I'll go listen. I'll go six.
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: You had your number.
- 1:12:09Speaker 3: I'll go twelve miles, you get a drink.
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: Of you got a jernk off twelve times.
- 1:12:14Speaker 4: That was the fantasy football punishment for one of my buddies,
- 1:12:17Speaker 4: name's Connor. But they took the jerk off out. But
- 1:12:20Speaker 4: it was just twelve eighteen twenty four for donuts, beers
- 1:12:25Speaker 4: and miles. And they had a day party on a
- 1:12:28Speaker 4: Saturday and he brought a tread meal and he played
- 1:12:31Speaker 4: baseball at the Navy and he was like fuck it,
- 1:12:32Speaker 4: and he literally did a full marathon on the tread
- 1:12:35Speaker 4: meal at this party, twenty four donuts and then twenty
- 1:12:38Speaker 4: four beers. He didn't have to do it, but you know, war.
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: Daddy, war daddy, when a challenge comes your way, have
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: to do it.
- 1:12:45Speaker 3: An to the bell and then some I bet he struck.
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: I bet he had a lot of respect from the boys.
- 1:12:50Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and twenty four.
- 1:12:52Speaker 3: We should do something like that. One day you're.
- 1:12:55Speaker 5: Gonna plant and then it's gonna come down to it.
- 1:12:57Speaker 3: I don't want to do it me.
- 1:13:00Speaker 5: I'm more so looking at will.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: But what if I planned and not want to do no.
- 1:13:06Speaker 5: I just I feel like we have these ideas like
- 1:13:09Speaker 5: let's go.
- 1:13:10Speaker 1: Usually I'm more of a started no, let's get to yes,
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: let me in any.
- 1:13:13Speaker 3: Of our will as it started no, get to yes,
- 1:13:15Speaker 3: I'm a yes, immediately go to no.
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:13:18Speaker 5: So, like one of you is gonna end up not
- 1:13:19Speaker 5: doing it. I think we should do it.
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: If you were like, we're doing this tomorrow, I'd be like,
- 1:13:24Speaker 3: all right, But if you're like, we're doing this in
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: three months, I would be more likely to say no
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: as opposed to it being flipped for me and will.
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: Are you thinking of the combine?
- 1:13:35Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: Trying to think, like what is Mitch thinking of? But
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: it's one thousand percent the combine?
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: Yes, did you do the bench press?
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: I know?
- 1:13:46Speaker 3: But have you done that?
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 1:13:47Speaker 5: I did it at home?
- 1:13:48Speaker 3: What was it?
- 1:13:48Speaker 5: I got thirty one?
- 1:13:50Speaker 3: I expected more.
- 1:13:52Speaker 5: I expected more too.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: It's crazy how it just creeps that no way creeps
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: up on you.
- 1:13:56Speaker 3: Out of nowhere.
- 1:13:57Speaker 5: I didn't have a spot her, though, so I don't
- 1:13:59Speaker 5: know if I could have gotten I want you more,
- 1:14:02Speaker 5: but I was just down there by myself and I
- 1:14:04Speaker 5: didn't want to just kill.
- 1:14:05Speaker 3: That is an underrated thing, is when you have somebody
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: to lift the weight for you, to get you in position.
- 1:14:10Speaker 5: That's they're also just like motivating you a little bit.
- 1:14:13Speaker 2: Come on, let's go.
- 1:14:14Speaker 5: I just put on some hardcore DM and just oh
- 1:14:18Speaker 5: ship dead Moss.
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: Well, I apologize. We do got to get this stuff
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: set up at boost so we can you can run
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: your combine. I know you want to see so bad
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: because you're right. You're right.
- 1:14:31Speaker 5: Jack and I have gone back and forth like who's
- 1:14:33Speaker 5: the most most athletic on the bus, And we've all
- 1:14:35Speaker 5: been on two dimes and everybody's list is different.
- 1:14:39Speaker 4: Also going on two dimes.
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll go two dimes about that list. I feel like,
- 1:14:45Speaker 3: list you Jack.
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: Guys, figure out who's the most athletic. Maybe out of
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: the back of the bus. Bro Ain't none of y'all
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: more athletic than me?
- 1:15:04Speaker 3: You don't think so? No, they're younger, dude, younger more.
- 1:15:09Speaker 3: You have a back thing. You got a back thing.
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: That's that's the thing.
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: Will is running about nine hundred to solid strone right now,
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: though he's.
- 1:15:17Speaker 4: Out there peaked like thousand.
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, I don't know. I haven't haven't. I haven't,
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: I haven't, I haven't I haven't tested in uh since
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: that last time where I was. I'll float in some
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: good numbers. I'll float some good numbers.
- 1:15:33Speaker 3: I just got my blood done Wednesday last week. I'm
- 1:15:35Speaker 3: excited to see those numpies.
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: It truly all depends what we're trying to clarify as
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: is like what an athlete is, because it's like we
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: we It's like we could run through the same combine
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: that I have film on out there, cause your bench
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: already didn't get it. But to me, bench is not like.
- 1:15:52Speaker 5: There's like a we did something in college, like a
- 1:15:54Speaker 5: pound for pound. So you're fifteen to twenty more pounds
- 1:15:58Speaker 5: than I am, so you're gonna have more Like you're
- 1:16:01Speaker 5: gonna be able to bench more.
- 1:16:02Speaker 2: But I might be able to run faster like you might.
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: Or we can find that out.
- 1:16:06Speaker 5: We can.
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: I mean, there's a road right outside, don't have. That's Winnings,
- 1:16:15Speaker 3: the black guy. He beat the Landing in that race.
- 1:16:20Speaker 4: I was also filming them running side by side.
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: That is. Jack was saying that too. He's like I
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: was running backwards. We'll get it going, We'll get it going.
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: We'll get it going. We'll get it going.
- 1:16:34Speaker 3: Who would you who would you rank the boys?
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: In the in the back most athletic. Again, we we truly.
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: I do think there are different definitions and different kind
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: of like.
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: Alright, classic definition of are we talking direction, jump speed?
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: M So we're testing?
- 1:16:50Speaker 3: Yeah, because I agree.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: With you, I would guess I would guess Jack if
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: we're doing if we're talking change direction, I was.
- 1:17:01Speaker 4: Gonna say, Mitch, but if we do that athletic in
- 1:17:03Speaker 4: terms of like how many sports you were able to
- 1:17:07Speaker 4: hold like you're own weight in, that is where I
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: feel like I would have a better chance. But there's
- 1:17:14Speaker 4: only one way to find out.
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: I can't.
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: But anything else.
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: Play defense, play defense, get boards.
- 1:17:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's yeah.
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: I mean that's a that's a role I.
- 1:17:27Speaker 5: Could jump, I can get the rebounds.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: And you won't get your team beat.
- 1:17:32Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not gonna be scoring a lot of points.
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: JP. Are you quick like change the direction? Do you
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: feel confident in your ability against them? I feel confident.
- 1:17:39Speaker 6: I would also probably say, Mitch as far as testing goes,
- 1:17:42Speaker 6: And then, like Jack is saying, I feel more confident
- 1:17:46Speaker 6: that I'm good at a lot of sports, can play
- 1:17:49Speaker 6: a lot of sports. I don't have golf though.
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: Golf tough, but a little worse yeah, swimming. He was
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: on the dive team, which.
- 1:18:02Speaker 2: I didn't have access to that.
- 1:18:07Speaker 3: So who he was rank.
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: We're forgetting about.
- 1:18:13Speaker 3: I feel like Coop. I feel like Coop finds himself
- 1:18:15Speaker 3: middle upper pack.
- 1:18:16Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: He might be shifty.
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: Yeah I do. I don't know. I have to figure
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: it out. If I had to, if I had to
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: play sods on it, I would say I would go
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: for going sports category. Jack, Are you any good at baseball? Mitch?
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: He played the high school, is going to play college?
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: Yeah? Okay, Jack, Mitch, JP, Garrett, Coop, I think you're off.
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: I think you're not giving enough credit to Garrett. Everything
- 1:18:47Speaker 3: we've seen Garrett do, he's relatively good at it. Like
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: the way JP is saying, like he can you can
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: play most sports. I've every sport we've done with Garrett.
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: His hand eye coordination is great.
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: Uh, he can throw a base ball. He can play
- 1:19:01Speaker 3: golf really well. I think I think you're sleeping on
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: g a little bit. I don't think he I think
- 1:19:05Speaker 3: he's top three.
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: I think g is very skilled.
- 1:19:07Speaker 5: I don't think I.
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: Don't think he tests well. I think, but we're talking
- 1:19:11Speaker 3: about sports.
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: But I want I want cats who have range in
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: every sport that we're playing, Like if we're playing baseball,
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: I need you to play the outfield and cover ground
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: like like, yeah, I'm sure G could be a good picture.
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: I think G is very skilled as far as like
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: some of those that just the athletic stuff of running
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: and moving and changing direction. That's why I value that
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: type of stuff more than being in place.
- 1:19:40Speaker 3: Yeah, there there's a scale that comes out just every sport.
- 1:19:44Speaker 4: You know, a small business that tests all these things.
- 1:19:47Speaker 3: Please please, there's like a have you heard of raz
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: relative athletic Yeah that Yeah, they come out after the combinat.
- 1:19:55Speaker 3: There's that they have like high weight measurement stuff that
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: you can look up.
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: They try to like that measure you're like your number
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: really yeah? Your relative athleticism.
- 1:20:05Speaker 3: Yeah, relative athleticism kind of what we're talking about relative athleticism.
- 1:20:08Speaker 3: If you want a benchmark, I'm the only player in
- 1:20:11Speaker 3: the last twenty years to score a perfect ten. But
- 1:20:13Speaker 3: if you guys have something to go off of, you
- 1:20:15Speaker 3: guys want you're a great athlete.
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: I was not anymore.
- 1:20:23Speaker 3: I just don't think my shoulder. You saw me throwing
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: that pitch. My knee, I can't really run like that,
- 1:20:28Speaker 3: can't change direction like that anymore. I've got a lot weaker.
- 1:20:32Speaker 3: I just don't think I'm holding to these young spry
- 1:20:35Speaker 3: cats anymore. These young bulls. Yeah, they are some young bulls, man,
- 1:20:41Speaker 3: But I think you're up there with them because you
- 1:20:44Speaker 3: wouldn't give me the nod over them. I think you would.
- 1:20:47Speaker 3: Here's where I think. I think if it really came
- 1:20:50Speaker 3: down to an actual combine, you're beating all of them handedly.
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: But I think for the next two weeks they're coming
- 1:20:56Speaker 3: to work and they feel fine and you're dead.
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: Yeah, but we're talking abot just we're talking about one.
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: We're showing up.
- 1:21:02Speaker 2: Yah.
- 1:21:02Speaker 3: Then I think I give you the edge because I
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: don't know if you remember back at the Vanderbilt when
- 1:21:05Speaker 3: you were pretty good at that change of direction thing
- 1:21:08Speaker 3: that you wanted to tell me about, pretty solid at
- 1:21:11Speaker 3: the change direction.
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: That.
- 1:21:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I would put you. I would put you at
- 1:21:22Speaker 3: the top.
- 1:21:24Speaker 6: Before we wrap up, the streets are saying that tear
- 1:21:27Speaker 6: talk might need to make a comeback, just to put that,
- 1:21:30Speaker 6: just float that out there.
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: Some tear talk. We could have been our barstool. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: I did to your talk today. You got any dad,
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: any dad moments flip the girl that I don't.
- 1:21:46Speaker 3: I would say my dad moment of the week. Just anything, dude,
- 1:21:53Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I got a dad moment. There was a
- 1:21:56Speaker 3: very cool clip on our nanet that Tailor showed when
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: she was putting wind down and when For those of
- 1:22:03Speaker 3: you who have ever met, wyn is the most kind hearted,
- 1:22:06Speaker 3: like truly like she's such a special soul. She cares
- 1:22:09Speaker 3: about other people. She's worried about their people's feelings, like
- 1:22:12Speaker 3: the kid just came out of the womb outstanding. She's
- 1:22:14Speaker 3: a lot like her mom. And Taylor has put her
- 1:22:17Speaker 3: to sleep and Wynn just starts going saying how great
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: of a mom she is. She's the best mom that
- 1:22:22Speaker 3: she could possibly have. And they start talking about parents
- 1:22:25Speaker 3: and stuff like that, and then Wynn said to Taylor,
- 1:22:28Speaker 3: She's like, I love how you make people feel good.
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: And Taylor's like, how do you know that I make
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: people feel good? She's like, well, I've seen you do it,
- 1:22:34Speaker 3: and she starts going over examples of times that Taylor
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: made people feel good. And to me, watching a six
- 1:22:40Speaker 3: year old have that kind of dialogue with her mother
- 1:22:43Speaker 3: just she was like years above, Like she was acting
- 1:22:46Speaker 3: like she was fifty sixty years old with this wealth
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: of knowledge. And I think that to me was a
- 1:22:50Speaker 3: very cool moment to watch a mother. Good awareness to
- 1:22:53Speaker 3: see out of a six year old. Yeah, crazy awareness
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: to see that of a six year old. Now she
- 1:22:57Speaker 3: drives me crazy sometimes because with all that beautiful emotion
- 1:23:00Speaker 3: comes the other side where everything's the biggest deal in
- 1:23:03Speaker 3: the world. And that's difficult for me because we're not
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: just gonna get out of here without complaining a little
- 1:23:07Speaker 3: bit about our kids. We got a bitch a little bit.
- 1:23:10Speaker 3: But I think that was a very special moment.
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: I love that.
- 1:23:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: I almost felt a little twinkle on my nose.
- 1:23:16Speaker 3: When I was walking through it. It's kind of.
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: Tough, Yeah, I uh a little shout out to Rue.
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: There's this We have this book called Old Hat New Hat,
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: and her memory is I think special. I don't know.
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: I could just be a biased father thinking that she's
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: got some crazy memory, but she can recite the entire
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: book after a few times of reading through it. Like,
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: I just think she's got a little something to her now.
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: When we were at State Gold the other day and
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: she made a little friend, and Rue does this thing
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: where she has to hug and kiss everything, like hug kiss,
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: even the boys last week, She's like hug and then
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: you hear it kind of say kiss, and there's kind
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: of this awkward moment of like, I wonder what the
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: boys are going to do here? Steven kissed her and
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: uh JP just leaned up with the cheeks. She kind
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: of just sits there. But she made this friend that
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: stayed golden and the family was leaving and we're like, Rue,
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: you gotta say by She's like, hug, hug, and she
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: like comes over. The little girl so I think she
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: was four. She like gives Ru a hug and they
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: Ru like hugs in and then you just hear Rue
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: like on her breath go kiss. And I'm standing there
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: and this girl grabs her face and leans in. They
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: both you know how you know how kids just kind
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: of sit there. They don't like no how yeah, they
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: don't puck her nothing. And she like grabs her face
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: and was going in and it was slow enough to
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: start laughing. I was like, all right, hey, hey, and
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: I'm just thinking like, hey, we gotta work on. We're
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: like driving home, like, uh Rue, you know, you just
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: you want to kiss like people that are family, that
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: are you can't just kiss everybody. You can't just kiss
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: everything because she has to do everything. Like we're putting
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: her down at night, she tries to negotiate, like I
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: gotta hug and kiss the stairs good night. I gotta
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: hug and kiss miss Rachel. That's that's no longer on
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: the screen. But you got to bring her up on
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: pause so she can like hug give kisses. So she
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: has to hug and kiss everything. So we got to
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: kind of yeah, because he's starting to get a little
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: starting to get a little loose with like everybody she's
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: kissing and it was hilarious.
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: You don't want kissing bandit for a child.
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: Yeah, she like hugs and he just here kiss.
- 1:25:13Speaker 3: Can we talk about one thing? Yeah, Steven kissed your
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: kid on the lips.
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: Kid, No kiss on the cheek. He kiss from the
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: cheek because ru goes after after like I'm holding her
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: and she's like hug and she like leans in and
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: she goes kiss and then she sideways. So I'm kind
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: of I'm kind of sitting there like house is going
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: to go down because I know it's I know it's
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: awkward for the she did with JP and GP. GP
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: just kind of leaned and she just like put her
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: face on JP's cheek because I'm thinking, like, I wonder
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: if JP's going to kiss her, because I know that's
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: like awkward, but uh oh. And also just throw a
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: little shout out to myself. Zero text to the wife

- 1:32:56Speaker 2: what was there?
- 1:32:57Speaker 3: Was there a reason for that where you kind of
- 1:32:58Speaker 3: just like I just kind of want to get away.
- 1:32:59Speaker 2: Hard a while, and then I was like, I just
- 1:33:00Speaker 2: feel like I need to take a break. Yeah, And
- 1:33:02Speaker 2: so I took a break and now I'm just like, oh,
- 1:33:05Speaker 2: I feel pretty awesome.
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: So I'm because of the road.
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: Actually, that was just because I was on vacation and
- 1:33:11Speaker 2: I was just going haym and then I'm like, oh,
- 1:33:13Speaker 2: I need to just I need a break. And that
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: was in like the beginning of December.
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: So yeah, so you've just been kicking it off since
- 1:33:18Speaker 3: middle of December, even through the holiday season.
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: Everything, Birthday, all of it, Cabo trip.
- 1:33:24Speaker 3: You know, just getting out anytime you're in Cobo too,
- 1:33:26Speaker 3: Like you gets towards mango deck or you get some
- 1:33:28Speaker 3: like squid row in those areas, you're like, I can't
- 1:33:30Speaker 3: not drink and not drink it's not a place for me,
- 1:33:32Speaker 3: not that, but to be sober is a ridiculous concept.
- 1:33:35Speaker 3: And copa look good though.
- 1:33:36Speaker 2: Man. I'm like, I don't know if I'm gonna I'm not.
- 1:33:39Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say I'm not gonna drink anymore. But
- 1:33:42Speaker 2: it's just nice to like feel pretty awesome.
- 1:33:45Speaker 3: It's interesting, Like what's super wild to me is like
- 1:33:48Speaker 3: playing sports, drinking before your act, your activity, whatever your
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: thing is, is like a total fou paba. Like in
- 1:33:54Speaker 3: your world, it seems like a couple of drinks before
- 1:33:57Speaker 3: you even go on. Oh, it's like the normal things
- 1:33:59Speaker 3: to do.
- 1:34:00Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's been my norm for twelve years.
- 1:34:02Speaker 3: Really, you have a couple like take out the jitters
- 1:34:04Speaker 3: a little bit. Yeah, you still get nervous twelve years later.
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: Nervous maybe not, but the excited butterfly feeling a bit still,
- 1:34:13Speaker 2: you know what I mean, When you're a little bit
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: just like I don't know if anxious is the word,
- 1:34:16Speaker 2: just excited a little bit. So you got to get
- 1:34:18Speaker 2: out there and kind of like calming down.
- 1:34:21Speaker 3: What's your Like you ever watched a show onto rush breath? Yeah,
- 1:34:24Speaker 3: it's like Johnny Drama, he would do the auga when
- 1:34:27Speaker 3: you did anything.
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: Do you have?
- 1:34:28Speaker 3: Like anything you do, it's like reset yourself, like all right,
- 1:34:31Speaker 3: hub breas because.
- 1:34:33Speaker 2: What happens is like you'r drelling gets going and it
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: gets harder to uh your bread. You know, your heart
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: rate goes up, your breath, your lung capacity seems to
- 1:34:41Speaker 2: go down, which is you need every bit of lung
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: capacity to sing while you're like running around the stage.
- 1:34:47Speaker 2: So it's really about taking some deep breaths and trying
- 1:34:49Speaker 2: to just like make sure you're at least calmon enough
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: to be able. U. My songs literally have no room
- 1:34:55Speaker 2: for breathing. So it's just about it's basically a lung
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: workout the whole show.
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: So that's sort of you got a really strategy how
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: you're gonna go about on a bit.
- 1:35:03Speaker 2: Yeah, Like if I start to feel like, man, I'm
- 1:35:04Speaker 2: really struggling, I'm sucking air right now, I'll just like, uh,
- 1:35:09Speaker 2: get my guitar or stand in front of the mic
- 1:35:10Speaker 2: and sing a song or two to kind of.
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: Like calm it down.
- 1:35:13Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, get back to neutral.
- 1:35:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you still get just as excited going out
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: on stage because you've been doing it, what for like
- 1:35:18Speaker 1: over two decades?
- 1:35:19Speaker 2: Yeah, about twelve years total, like as a professional.
- 1:35:23Speaker 3: Uh, two decades. He'd been like twelve out there, you've
- 1:35:27Speaker 3: been like Philip.
- 1:35:28Speaker 2: Has been seventeen. I'm getting I'm getting on up there,
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: I guess now.
- 1:35:30Speaker 3: But you've been You've been in the spotlight for a
- 1:35:32Speaker 3: little while those years.
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, and it's still fun. Yeah. I still
- 1:35:36Speaker 2: get like the same I still get the same rush, dude. Yeah,
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: it's cool.
- 1:35:42Speaker 3: What's the process Like when you're sitting there and like
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: you're back starting out and you're kind of playing clubs,
- 1:35:47Speaker 3: people aren't really listening, and you're like, man, is this
- 1:35:50Speaker 3: really gonna be it? To now you're doing theaters, now
- 1:35:52Speaker 3: you're doing bridge Stone and all these like touring all
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: over the world type stuff, Like how is that transition?
- 1:35:57Speaker 3: Dealing with that type of fame?
- 1:35:59Speaker 2: Oh oh man, good question, bro. It's what we I
- 1:36:05Speaker 2: would say. It can be difficult, for sure. It's important
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: to have For me, it's important to have some support
- 1:36:15Speaker 2: around me.
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:36:16Speaker 2: I also met my wife fairly early on, which was
- 1:36:20Speaker 2: very grounding for me, and she kept me very grounded.
- 1:36:23Speaker 2: And I have some really good friends that I could
- 1:36:25Speaker 2: kind of remain constant and was kind of grounding. But
- 1:36:29Speaker 2: it's definitely a journey. It's a ride, and if you're
- 1:36:31Speaker 2: not careful, all the typical things you think that can
- 1:36:35Speaker 2: kind of take control. Will you know what I'm saying,
- 1:36:37Speaker 2: Whether it's ego, whether it's insecurity, whether it's a substance,
- 1:36:42Speaker 2: whether it's just you know, for me, like my biggest
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: struggle is like overworking or like being a workaholic, I'd say,
- 1:36:48Speaker 2: you know, like having balance life, work, balance and all that.
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: It's a constant setting the intention and trying to stick
- 1:36:56Speaker 2: with it and then checking yourself and making sure and
- 1:36:58Speaker 2: this week is this week balance is my next week balance.
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: So it's like, you know, I wear several different hats
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: between artists, songwriter, husband, dad and friend at times, you know.
- 1:37:09Speaker 2: So I'm like, all right, am I it is my
- 1:37:12Speaker 2: is my week balance?
- 1:37:13Speaker 3: In that in that way, So is Hailey like a
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: big piece of that making sure you're balanced?
- 1:37:18Speaker 2: Uh yeah, she is, yep, because we're both trying to
- 1:37:22Speaker 2: maintain that a bit. You know, like when you got
- 1:37:25Speaker 2: three kids, sometimes it can just be all about the
- 1:37:26Speaker 2: kids and you, and you realize all my marriage is
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: a little bit a little bit off right now. Or
- 1:37:33Speaker 2: we haven't invested in our marriage in the last few weeks.
- 1:37:35Speaker 2: We need to spend some time doing that. Or I
- 1:37:38Speaker 2: hadn't written a song into a couple of weeks, so
- 1:37:40Speaker 2: I need to go write some this week. But yes,
- 1:37:42Speaker 2: like I said, I just feel like I'm constantly looking
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: at my calendar and saying, all right, is it is
- 1:37:46Speaker 2: it fairly balanced?
- 1:37:47Speaker 1: Am I pouring into each bucket correctly? It's say, okay,
- 1:37:50Speaker 1: I'm notarily pouring into the marriage. Oh man, maybe I
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: haven't been a home run the kids. Oh maybe I'm
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: not being in the studios much. Yeah, it's like you
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: got to juggle a lot of those different things.
- 1:37:58Speaker 2: You have to be intentional for sure. Yeah, and I'm
- 1:38:01Speaker 2: sure I was.
- 1:38:02Speaker 1: Gonna say, what was your insecurity when you were coming
- 1:38:04Speaker 1: up to say, before you met your wife? Like you're
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: exploding on the scene because you're right. It's almost like
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: you can go down any road you want to. When
- 1:38:10Speaker 1: you're becoming like a superstar like you. You can drink,
- 1:38:12Speaker 1: you can do all the different things you can. There's women,
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: there's there's a status, it's okay, am I gonna be
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: at this award show? Like? Am I the man?
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: Like you want to surround myself with yes people or
- 1:38:22Speaker 2: people that I know are going to take care of right,
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: I mean, there's all that, There's all those decisions along
- 1:38:26Speaker 2: the way that you kind of have to make, even
- 1:38:29Speaker 2: if it's subconsciously. I would say one of my biggest
- 1:38:31Speaker 2: fears though, was like being because you hear all the stories,
- 1:38:35Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. You hear the downfall of
- 1:38:37Speaker 2: all the artists you come you know, you come up
- 1:38:39Speaker 2: here and about you know, your icons and becoming you know,
- 1:38:43Speaker 2: becoming alcoholics or dealing with depression or not knowing how
- 1:38:47Speaker 2: to manage or not, or losing your friends and your community,
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: and feeling like you're alone even though you from an
- 1:38:53Speaker 2: outside perspective it looks like you got everything you ever want.
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: But I think that was like my biggest fear.
- 1:38:58Speaker 6: So I was.
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: Pretty intention on the way up of being like, all right,
- 1:39:03Speaker 2: I want to have a successful music career, but I
- 1:39:06Speaker 2: also want to have a regular life, and I want
- 1:39:08Speaker 2: to make sure that I at the end of this,
- 1:39:10Speaker 2: at the end of this ride, wherever this ride ends,
- 1:39:12Speaker 2: that I'm not just sitting there not knowing what to do,
- 1:39:14Speaker 2: like where to go from there, Like I want to
- 1:39:16Speaker 2: have a family one day. I want to have a
- 1:39:19Speaker 2: healthy relationship with my wife. I want to have I
- 1:39:22Speaker 2: want to always be able to have a glass of
- 1:39:24Speaker 2: wine at dinner if I want to, without having to
- 1:39:26Speaker 2: worry about falling off right. So it's just so so
- 1:39:29Speaker 2: kind of just staying in check along the way was big.
- 1:39:32Speaker 2: But I think that was a fear of mine, which
- 1:39:34Speaker 2: is also why I was. You know, when I felt
- 1:39:38Speaker 2: myself slipping or I felt myself headed down a road
- 1:39:42Speaker 2: that I wasn't excited, you know that I knew was
- 1:39:45Speaker 2: a dead end, I would turn it around or get
- 1:39:47Speaker 2: back on track, or at least attempt to.
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: So, yeah, you bring up like when you bring up
- 1:39:51Speaker 3: like yes men, and you say do I write, well,
- 1:39:53Speaker 3: who do I want to surround myself with? Like I
- 1:39:55Speaker 3: feel like anybody who's getting into whether it's music or
- 1:39:58Speaker 3: sports or any sort of entertainment that is spotlight. The
- 1:40:01Speaker 3: most difficult thing to navigate is yes men, because no
- 1:40:04Speaker 3: one likes being told you're wrong. But when people say, hey,
- 1:40:07Speaker 3: you're on the right track, you're doing this, You're doing
- 1:40:09Speaker 3: great at that. It's so easy to fall into like, oh,
- 1:40:13Speaker 3: maybe I am doing better than I thought I was doing,
- 1:40:15Speaker 3: or like taking more of the suggestion of the yes
- 1:40:18Speaker 3: man than the people that are trying to keep you
- 1:40:19Speaker 3: and check that have your best interests involved. Like, how
- 1:40:21Speaker 3: did you when you say you were like really conscious
- 1:40:24Speaker 3: about keeping those people out of your life? How do
- 1:40:26Speaker 3: you sniff that out?
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: Man?
- 1:40:28Speaker 3: Don't?
- 1:40:29Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it's a kind of a
- 1:40:31Speaker 2: gut thing. But what happens to me is like when
- 1:40:34Speaker 2: I'm around those types of people, I realize that their
- 1:40:37Speaker 2: opinion is doesn't really matter much because they're only telling
- 1:40:40Speaker 2: me what I want to hear. They're not telling me all.
- 1:40:42Speaker 2: They're not always telling me truth. So like when I
- 1:40:45Speaker 2: could when I could tell that I had a friend
- 1:40:48Speaker 2: or my wife or a manager or somebody in the
- 1:40:52Speaker 2: band that would shoot me straight, it only validated what
- 1:40:57Speaker 2: they would say when it was positive. Right, when they're
- 1:40:59Speaker 2: like that's an awesome song. You're not just telling me
- 1:41:01Speaker 2: that's an awesome song because you want me to feel good.
- 1:41:03Speaker 2: You're telling me that because you're being honest and being truthful,
- 1:41:05Speaker 2: and it means a ton more. So I was just
- 1:41:07Speaker 2: really drawn to the people that would be like, hey, bro,
- 1:41:10Speaker 2: I don't really love that song as much, you know
- 1:41:11Speaker 2: what I mean, But oh, all right, I can take
- 1:41:14Speaker 2: that because I know you're shooting me straight. And the
- 1:41:17Speaker 2: more success I had, the more valuable those relationships became.
- 1:41:20Speaker 3: For sure.
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: How close are you able to talk about one of
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: those situations where you did get close because you talked
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: about going down different paths and realizing some could be
- 1:41:27Speaker 1: dead ends. Is there a time like in your career
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: where you're like, man, I really almost went off the
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: fucking wagon here.
- 1:41:32Speaker 2: I mean, I think I got fortunate and uh, without
- 1:41:35Speaker 2: bringing too much spirituality into it, I definitely feel like
- 1:41:38Speaker 2: I was looking out for me because there were times where,
- 1:41:41Speaker 2: especially at the beginning, Bro, like we're in a van
- 1:41:44Speaker 2: just roughing it and literally just like drinking straight Jack
- 1:41:49Speaker 2: Daniels every night, popping a night roll so we could
- 1:41:53Speaker 2: drive to the next show, like in just kind of
- 1:41:57Speaker 2: getting into that lifestyle. We were just like, man, we're
- 1:41:59Speaker 2: out here grinding, but we're you know, we're also partying.
- 1:42:02Speaker 2: You know, you're meeting girls that you don't know, you're uh,
- 1:42:06Speaker 2: you know. That was kind of short lived for me,
- 1:42:07Speaker 2: but ultimately I saw pretty quickly like yo, this could
- 1:42:10Speaker 2: this could end in no telling what kind of consequences right,
- 1:42:13Speaker 2: like life changing scenarios here. So again that fear was
- 1:42:17Speaker 2: set in of like man, I don't want that, like
- 1:42:20Speaker 2: like I've been here, I've done that a bit. So
- 1:42:23Speaker 2: like Fortunately, like I said, I met Haley early on
- 1:42:26Speaker 2: like twenty thirteens when we met, so I was already
- 1:42:30Speaker 2: like in my mind, I was ready to meet the
- 1:42:32Speaker 2: I was ready to meet that girl. I was ready
- 1:42:34Speaker 2: to meet Hailey because I was kind of over you know,
- 1:42:37Speaker 2: the scene and meeting random girls and trying to do that.
- 1:42:41Speaker 2: But I think if I think, if I was going
- 1:42:44Speaker 2: to put a finger on a year, it's probably twenty twelve,
- 1:42:46Speaker 2: twenty eleven, even twenty ten when we were before we
- 1:42:49Speaker 2: had a deal where we were just like grinding, bro
- 1:42:52Speaker 2: and we were you know, just in a club every
- 1:42:56Speaker 2: you know, four nights a week, getting drunk every night,
- 1:42:59Speaker 2: just to just to basically I feel like you're surviving
- 1:43:03Speaker 2: a little bit you know in the dream, chasing a
- 1:43:05Speaker 2: dream and roughing it and you know, just you know,
- 1:43:09Speaker 2: you can imagine.
- 1:43:10Speaker 3: Bro, a young thunder kids feeling like we were supposed
- 1:43:13Speaker 3: to be doing on the rocking like you got nothing
- 1:43:15Speaker 3: to lose at the time, so you're just you're just
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: going for it.
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:43:19Speaker 3: And when you're in your early twenties, dude to hang
- 1:43:20Speaker 3: over nothing, Yeah, you're non existent. You wake up and
- 1:43:23Speaker 3: you're like, I feel kind of bad about myself. I'm
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: gonna move forward. Yeah, I'm gonna do that.
- 1:43:27Speaker 1: I gotta keep up.
- 1:43:28Speaker 3: Yeah, you won't be the guys, not hey boys, not
- 1:43:30Speaker 3: me tonight. Yeah, I'm gonna go sleep in the van.
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: It's like, oh, come on, you're all right.
- 1:43:35Speaker 2: One drink, one drink, eight beers later, you're like, all right,
- 1:43:39Speaker 2: I'm ready to play a show.
- 1:43:40Speaker 3: Yeah, when you're hitting the van, what was like the
- 1:43:43Speaker 3: moment for you that you're like, oh shit, we're gonna
- 1:43:45Speaker 3: make it.
- 1:43:47Speaker 6: Ah.
- 1:43:49Speaker 2: I would say. In two thousand and twelve, we were
- 1:43:53Speaker 2: on a tour called the Country Throwdown Tour. We were
- 1:43:56Speaker 2: the only band that was in a van driving ourselves
- 1:43:58Speaker 2: around the country and it was a bunch of acts
- 1:43:59Speaker 2: on the tour and we were the barbecue band. So
- 1:44:02Speaker 2: to be on this tour we had to agree to
- 1:44:05Speaker 2: play in the afternoon. This was a summer tour as well,
- 1:44:08Speaker 2: so it was like one hundred degrees every day. We
- 1:44:11Speaker 2: were playing at two o'clock. Then we'd load our gear
- 1:44:13Speaker 2: up into a semi that was on the tour because
- 1:44:16Speaker 2: we had a trailer that they made us leave it
- 1:44:18Speaker 2: home because they they gave us a Kingsford barbecue grill
- 1:44:22Speaker 2: and smoker that we pulled behind the van, and we
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: would play our show, load our gear up again, probably
- 1:44:28Speaker 2: struggling from the last the night before, so we're like,
- 1:44:31Speaker 2: you know, hungover, and then they give us a pocket
- 1:44:35Speaker 2: full of cash and say, all right, you got to
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: go grocery shopping and get enough food for the whole
- 1:44:39Speaker 2: tour with this money. And you guys are cooking the
- 1:44:42Speaker 2: hamburgers and hot dogs tonight. And we were the party,
- 1:44:45Speaker 2: like the life of the party. So whenever anybody in
- 1:44:48Speaker 2: the whole tour act crew band, it didn't matter when
- 1:44:52Speaker 2: they got done playing, they would come to where we
- 1:44:54Speaker 2: were at where we were set up, and we were
- 1:44:56Speaker 2: cooking for the whole tour. The whole rest of the
- 1:44:58Speaker 2: night had the music blast and kind like setting the
- 1:45:01Speaker 2: pace for the party. And uh, it was a lot
- 1:45:03Speaker 2: of fun. But we were the first ones up and
- 1:45:05Speaker 2: then we were the last one. Then we'd midnight would
- 1:45:08Speaker 2: roll around at one o'clock. We'd pour a bunch of
- 1:45:10Speaker 2: water on the grill, try to get it to go out.
- 1:45:11Speaker 2: We'd load up in the van, like I said, somebody
- 1:45:14Speaker 2: popping out of all and we would just take off
- 1:45:16Speaker 2: down the road. Literally sometimes there's still like embers flying
- 1:45:19Speaker 2: from the from the grill, going down their state and
- 1:45:23Speaker 2: driving ourselves around the southeast and Midwest. On that tour
- 1:45:27Speaker 2: was that was the roughest. That was definitely the roughest tour.
- 1:45:30Speaker 2: But at the same time, to answer your question, that
- 1:45:32Speaker 2: was when we started to feel some traction and see people.
- 1:45:34Speaker 2: That's when crews came out. We started seeing people show
- 1:45:37Speaker 2: up early to watch us play and sing the words,
- 1:45:39Speaker 2: and me and b K look at each other like, bro, bro,
- 1:45:42Speaker 2: there's like fans out here, dude, Like, holy cow, and
- 1:45:45Speaker 2: we're starting to fill the momentum. And by the end
- 1:45:47Speaker 2: of that tour we were like we thought we were
- 1:45:49Speaker 2: the biggest thing on the tour, but we were still.
- 1:45:51Speaker 3: You know, like grilling, grilling, trying to get food.
- 1:45:55Speaker 2: That's it, dude, dude.
- 1:45:56Speaker 3: That is who were there any notable acts like on
- 1:45:58Speaker 3: that tour.
- 1:46:00Speaker 2: Gary Allen was like one of the headliners there was
- 1:46:04Speaker 2: a few more. I think the year before Branley Gilbert
- 1:46:08Speaker 2: had done that, but there was it's a long guy.
- 1:46:10Speaker 2: I can't even remember. I just remember watching Gary Allen.
- 1:46:13Speaker 1: Uh.
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: Josh Thompson was on that tour, that tour as well,
- 1:46:16Speaker 2: which I was a big fan of him, but Gary
- 1:46:19Speaker 2: was the headliner. So we were kind of watching and
- 1:46:21Speaker 2: dreaming and taking notes from him.
- 1:46:23Speaker 3: You watch him.
- 1:46:23Speaker 2: What were the things he was busy cooking? But yeah,
- 1:46:26Speaker 2: hear from a distance.
- 1:46:28Speaker 3: Was he one of those guys that turned in earlier
- 1:46:29Speaker 3: or was he up now?
- 1:46:30Speaker 2: Gary would Gary would stay up. Yeah, he was one
- 1:46:32Speaker 2: of the last. He'd come. He'd get done then come
- 1:46:35Speaker 2: over to our you know area and hang out and
- 1:46:39Speaker 2: have a burger and do the thing. Yeah, he wasn't
- 1:46:41Speaker 2: afraid to stay up late like that.
- 1:46:43Speaker 1: You guys said all that traction like coming off that tour,
- 1:46:46Speaker 1: like what was the big break, Like what was the
- 1:46:47Speaker 1: big moment where it's going from like oh damn, people
- 1:46:50Speaker 1: are showing up to our shows like begad, this is
- 1:46:51Speaker 1: fucking sick blah blah blah to like the big moment
- 1:46:54Speaker 1: comes and you guys get you know, whether it's a
- 1:46:57Speaker 1: deal whatever it is, where your big break finally came.
- 1:47:00Speaker 2: I think there was a few moments for me. This
- 1:47:02Speaker 2: sounds a little silly, but when I when I moved
- 1:47:05Speaker 2: to Nashville, I realized there was a career called songwriting,
- 1:47:09Speaker 2: and I was like, oh, I just thought, like everybody
- 1:47:12Speaker 2: wrote their own stuff, like you know what I'm saying.
- 1:47:14Speaker 2: So I realized pretty quickly, like I think that's what
- 1:47:17Speaker 2: I want to do. So when I graduated college, me
- 1:47:20Speaker 2: and BK both we were just pursuing being a songwriter.
- 1:47:25Speaker 2: And so in twenty twelve, we signed our first deal,
- 1:47:28Speaker 2: and we signed a publishing deal which paid US fifteen
- 1:47:30Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month, and that was they basically asked,
- 1:47:34Speaker 2: what is it going to take to cover your bills
- 1:47:35Speaker 2: and allow you to write full time? And it's about
- 1:47:38Speaker 2: fifteen hundred bucks. So at that point, to be honest,
- 1:47:41Speaker 2: as where as that sounds, I remember feeling like I'm
- 1:47:44Speaker 2: a professional songwriter now, Like I've done it. Yeah, here
- 1:47:48Speaker 2: we go, and like I don't have to wash cars anymore,
- 1:47:50Speaker 2: Like I can fully wake up and focus on writing songs,
- 1:47:53Speaker 2: which was a dream for me. So that was probably
- 1:47:55Speaker 2: the first like feeling like man, I made it bro
- 1:47:58Speaker 2: like I'm a professional songwriter.
- 1:48:00Speaker 3: Uh.
- 1:48:01Speaker 2: And then there was a moment I remember when we've
- 1:48:03Speaker 2: got our first tour bus. That was also after being
- 1:48:06Speaker 2: in vans sprinter vans. We started out in b CA's Tahoe,
- 1:48:10Speaker 2: you know, so like when we got a tour bus
- 1:48:12Speaker 2: to where we could actually lay down and sleep through
- 1:48:14Speaker 2: the night and have a driver. That was one of
- 1:48:18Speaker 2: the biggest moments for us, is like, bro, we've made it.
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: We got a tour bus.
- 1:48:23Speaker 2: So there's a lot of you know, along the way
- 1:48:25Speaker 2: moments where you look back and you know, in hindsight
- 1:48:27Speaker 2: you're like, we didn't have nothing really going, but in
- 1:48:29Speaker 2: our in our mind like we had made it.
- 1:48:32Speaker 3: Yeah, it'sake small steps in totors, you're driving, then you're
- 1:48:36Speaker 3: on the tour bus, extra flying, next flying private. Like
- 1:48:38Speaker 3: there's always like a new level yep, is there when
- 1:48:41Speaker 3: you started to have this level of success, Like what
- 1:48:44Speaker 3: to you is like the pinnacle of reaching whatever new
- 1:48:48Speaker 3: goal you have in your mind.
- 1:48:49Speaker 2: Right now? Uh wait say that again, right now.
- 1:48:53Speaker 3: Right now? During Florida Georgia line, during whenever you feel
- 1:48:57Speaker 3: like because right now you're you're in a transition and
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: coming off a great album, going into a new album.
- 1:49:02Speaker 3: But like, let's say the pinnacle of Flora Georgia line,
- 1:49:04Speaker 3: where did you see did you see it going even further?
- 1:49:06Speaker 3: And where was that point?
- 1:49:08Speaker 6: Oh?
- 1:49:08Speaker 1: Man?
- 1:49:10Speaker 2: I think selling out stadiums is obviously sort of the
- 1:49:13Speaker 2: pinnacle of where we took it, where we thought it
- 1:49:17Speaker 2: could go, where we dreamed of it going, you know,
- 1:49:20Speaker 2: and we played I think when we did that tour
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: where we it was a baseball stadium tour and it
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: was Backstreet Boys and Nelly were opening for us, so
- 1:49:33Speaker 2: it was it was Backstreet, Nelly and then us, and
- 1:49:36Speaker 2: it was just, you know, I was living out my
- 1:49:39Speaker 2: wildest you know, childhood dreams basically, or middle school dreams,
- 1:49:42Speaker 2: being on tour with Nelly and then getting to see
- 1:49:45Speaker 2: Backstreet do their thing, like it was just nostalgic for me.
- 1:49:48Speaker 2: And it was a pretty surreal tour. So I would
- 1:49:51Speaker 2: say that was one of those moments where I'm like, bro,
- 1:49:53Speaker 2: it doesn't get any better than this. Man. We got
- 1:49:55Speaker 2: sold out stadiums and getting to play with some of
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: our heroes, and and you know, to answer your question
- 1:50:01Speaker 2: about it, if if we saw it getting any bigger,
- 1:50:04Speaker 2: I don't know, man. I mean, the journey was kind
- 1:50:08Speaker 2: of like the trajectory was insane at the beginning, so
- 1:50:11Speaker 2: it really just took us. We just buffled up, dude,
- 1:50:14Speaker 2: and kept our head. You guys exploded on the scene.
- 1:50:16Speaker 1: It was just like because you you like did a
- 1:50:18Speaker 1: collab with Nelly, right, yeah, which was I remember that,
- 1:50:22Speaker 1: Like that is like, you guys did explode on the
- 1:50:24Speaker 1: scene quick. So you just went like a vertical line
- 1:50:27Speaker 1: and you're.
- 1:50:27Speaker 2: Just like, yeah, buckle up, bro so and then it
- 1:50:30Speaker 2: kind of like most careers do it it uh, it
- 1:50:33Speaker 2: had to eventually slow down a bit, and uh, and
- 1:50:37Speaker 2: it did, and we had a kind of our ups
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: and downs and kind of some some great seasons and
- 1:50:41Speaker 2: sort of some like oh that didn't hit as hard
- 1:50:43Speaker 2: as we thought. But for the most part, man, I
- 1:50:45Speaker 2: mean that was just the wildest ride. Looking back, I mean,
- 1:50:48Speaker 2: I wouldn't trade anything, I wouldn't change anything, and it
- 1:50:53Speaker 2: was just incredible. But it really kind of set me
- 1:50:55Speaker 2: up for what we're doing now, you know, being getting
- 1:50:58Speaker 2: to kind of redo it, take everything I learned from
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: back in the day and reapply it to the solo
- 1:51:03Speaker 2: career and also getting to go back and like to
- 1:51:07Speaker 2: where we fell in love with it the first time.
- 1:51:09Speaker 2: Like these clubs and theaters and smaller venues that are
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: super intimate and you get to connect with the fans
- 1:51:14Speaker 2: and like, uh, because you lose that along the way,
- 1:51:17Speaker 2: like when you get in bigger, bigger venues, it's a
- 1:51:19Speaker 2: lot more difficult, and then it just becomes redundant because
- 1:51:22Speaker 2: you go and you play the same fifty venues over
- 1:51:26Speaker 2: and over and over in amphitheaters. And so to be
- 1:51:28Speaker 2: able to go back and kind of reinvent myself slash
- 1:51:31Speaker 2: reconnect with the fans and these cool clubs and stuff,
- 1:51:35Speaker 2: it's been like super super awesome and like giving me
- 1:51:39Speaker 2: new energy.
- 1:51:39Speaker 3: So when you're on the trajectory you're at and you
- 1:51:42Speaker 3: have those years, really okay, that didn't hit as hard
- 1:51:44Speaker 3: as we thought it was going to. Like how how
- 1:51:47Speaker 3: do you like navigate the ego in that situation? Because
- 1:51:50Speaker 3: if you're on this crazy trajectory and you think where
- 1:51:52Speaker 3: it's gonna keep going like this because it inevitably we
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: all think like, oh, this is gonna happen forever until
- 1:51:56Speaker 3: reality sets in. When those lulls did happen, what was
- 1:52:00Speaker 3: your mindset of Is it like, hey, I just got
- 1:52:02Speaker 3: to work harder, or was it.
- 1:52:03Speaker 2: Like so, and I had people on the come up
- 1:52:05Speaker 2: that were like, hey, bro, this ain't gonna last forever.
- 1:52:08Speaker 2: I kept and not a ton of people would say that.
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: But when it did, it really stuck with me that
- 1:52:13Speaker 2: you need to be prepared for when this is not
- 1:52:15Speaker 2: doing what it's doing, because it won't do it forever. Right,
- 1:52:18Speaker 2: So I was somewhat mentally prepared for the trajectory to
- 1:52:23Speaker 2: somewhat level out, and when it did, I do think
- 1:52:28Speaker 2: it motivated me. Uh for sure, Like I'm kind of
- 1:52:31Speaker 2: a driven dude and and uh and probably more competitive
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: than I'd like to give myself credit for. But yeah,
- 1:52:39Speaker 2: to have a little bit of a challenge or a
- 1:52:41Speaker 2: struggle or to not or to try to understand why
- 1:52:43Speaker 2: didn't that connect like we thought it would. Uh, you
- 1:52:47Speaker 2: know a lot of learning lessons along the way. But
- 1:52:49Speaker 2: I would say, you know, the ego thing, Uh, I
- 1:52:54Speaker 2: don't know, man, I took it. I took it in stride.
- 1:52:56Speaker 2: I think I think it was good for us to
- 1:52:58Speaker 2: have little blows of the ego okay aasionally and keep
- 1:53:00Speaker 2: us kind of grounded and then and then yeah, nothing
- 1:53:03Speaker 2: more humbling than having to start all over again, you know,
- 1:53:08Speaker 2: not from ground zero. But pretty close to it. So
- 1:53:10Speaker 2: it's been the last couple of years for me have
- 1:53:13Speaker 2: been just a lesson, a life lesson in humility and
- 1:53:18Speaker 2: you know, and taking and taking that challenge head on,
- 1:53:23Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. I'll had a couple of
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: people tell me like, well, you can't come out of
- 1:53:27Speaker 2: a band and then have a successful It's like never
- 1:53:30Speaker 2: been done. Like nobody's had a big solo career after
- 1:53:32Speaker 2: being a major career in a band. So I heard
- 1:53:34Speaker 2: that like two or three times, and I'm like, oh, okay, yeah,
- 1:53:38Speaker 2: let's go there go Yeah.
- 1:53:40Speaker 1: Yeah, that is true. I mean it's like the example
- 1:53:42Speaker 1: a lot of people are aware of due to the movie.
- 1:53:44Speaker 1: But Queen, yeah, he broke up. Yeah, and Freddie kind
- 1:53:48Speaker 1: of tries to do his own thing. Why why go
- 1:53:50Speaker 1: the solo route? Like what happened beyond the Way with
- 1:53:53Speaker 1: you and BK? That's like to where Florida Georgia line
- 1:53:56Speaker 1: can be forever?
- 1:53:58Speaker 2: Yeah, a good question. I mean for me, it was
- 1:54:00Speaker 2: it was really unexpected. But BK came to me and said, man,
- 1:54:04Speaker 2: I'm really feeling like I want to do a solo thing.
- 1:54:06Speaker 2: And I'm like really, I'm like we were just getting
- 1:54:09Speaker 2: out of our first deal. We were kind of in
- 1:54:11Speaker 2: a sweet spot that we had worked for ten years
- 1:54:12Speaker 2: to get to, and I'm like, bro, like, why don't
- 1:54:15Speaker 2: we just ride this, ride this thing out for like
- 1:54:17Speaker 2: five more years, ten more years, and then we can
- 1:54:19Speaker 2: do the solo thing or whatever. But but again, like
- 1:54:24Speaker 2: I wanted to support him. He was adamant, like, now
- 1:54:27Speaker 2: now's my time. I really need to do this for myself.
- 1:54:29Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, hey, whatever you need to do, bro,
- 1:54:33Speaker 2: Like what do you want from me? He's like, I
- 1:54:34Speaker 2: just want support. So I'm like, all right, you got it, bro,
- 1:54:36Speaker 2: Like we've had an incredible ride. If this is where
- 1:54:39Speaker 2: it's gonna go, like, let's do it and crush it
- 1:54:43Speaker 2: and you never know, maybe it'll bring us back together
- 1:54:45Speaker 2: and we can have a reunion tour or whatever. But uh,
- 1:54:49Speaker 2: but it was he definitely initiated the whole thing from
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: the beginning, and it kind of when I say, caught
- 1:54:54Speaker 2: me off guard. It wasn't that we had never mentioned
- 1:54:56Speaker 2: it before. It's just one of those things where I
- 1:54:58Speaker 2: didn't think then. I didn't think it was gonna happened then,
- 1:55:00Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Yeah, coming into a spot
- 1:55:04Speaker 2: to where yeah, just in a sweet spot, just gotten
- 1:55:06Speaker 2: out of our first deal, able to kind of negotiate
- 1:55:09Speaker 2: where we want to go from there and have a
- 1:55:11Speaker 2: lot of freedom, and we're in a great place. But yeah,
- 1:55:15Speaker 2: for him, that was the right time, and and for me,
- 1:55:17Speaker 2: I was like, well I'll just again. I kind of thought, well,
- 1:55:21Speaker 2: I'll just stay in town and be a songwriter. That
- 1:55:22Speaker 2: sounds like a fun gig, you know, just eleven to
- 1:55:25Speaker 2: three life and hang out with I AM. At that point,
- 1:55:27Speaker 2: I had we had just had our third kid, so
- 1:55:30Speaker 2: I was pretty uh, you know, in the deep end
- 1:55:33Speaker 2: on being a dad and figuring all that out. So
- 1:55:36Speaker 2: I was pretty pretty occupied. But then a year or
- 1:55:41Speaker 2: so later, I was like, man, I really miss like
- 1:55:43Speaker 2: making records, I miss being on tour, I missed the
- 1:55:46Speaker 2: whole aspect of the artist life. And so uh so, yeah,
- 1:55:49Speaker 2: then I met I met my manager and felt really supported.
- 1:55:52Speaker 2: I was like, man, I don't die back into this
- 1:55:54Speaker 2: and see what I can do. And again, like I said, hurt,
- 1:55:57Speaker 2: I heard that it couldn't be done. A couple of
- 1:55:58Speaker 2: times I was like, man, I'd like to try.
- 1:56:00Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:56:00Speaker 2: So uh so, yeah, just sort of timing and life
- 1:56:03Speaker 2: in general just sort of led us in that direction
- 1:56:05Speaker 2: and uh, something that now I'm really grateful for. It
- 1:56:09Speaker 2: has been a lot of fun. Rebuilding has been a
- 1:56:11Speaker 2: lot of fun. Like it's incredible doing something with your
- 1:56:15Speaker 2: friend and having a partner, but taking the dynamic back
- 1:56:19Speaker 2: to the basics of just like me getting to be
- 1:56:21Speaker 2: the leader that i'd like to be and getting to
- 1:56:24Speaker 2: do it on my own and getting to kind of
- 1:56:26Speaker 2: kind of build culture around uh, you know the type
- 1:56:31Speaker 2: of culture that I want to that I want to build.
- 1:56:34Speaker 2: And you got to think about it. When we started FGIL,
- 1:56:36Speaker 2: we were like twenty three years old, bro Like, like
- 1:56:39Speaker 2: we were just young, dumb and on a mission, you
- 1:56:42Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, and learning as we were going.
- 1:56:44Speaker 2: Now I get to kind of take all that and
- 1:56:47Speaker 2: kind of rebuild with that in mind and a little
- 1:56:49Speaker 2: bit more maturity and a little bit more uh gratitude
- 1:56:52Speaker 2: and humility and all that makes for uh makes it
- 1:56:56Speaker 2: for a fun a fun ride.
- 1:56:57Speaker 3: When you're first like presenting with the hey I want
- 1:56:59Speaker 3: to go amound so route, Like, is your first reaction
- 1:57:03Speaker 3: I'm gonna support you or is it the natural? Yeah?
- 1:57:05Speaker 1: Like you know you're just like, hey busting, We're not Hey,
- 1:57:09Speaker 1: I'm not podcast just thinking what what's going on to
- 1:57:13Speaker 1: you right now?
- 1:57:14Speaker 3: Be like hey, well, I know it's a contract here,
- 1:57:15Speaker 3: but honestly, you're just like support as your friend. I
- 1:57:20Speaker 3: need your support and you're just like okay, I support you.
- 1:57:23Speaker 2: Ship.
- 1:57:23Speaker 3: Yeah, the human nature like anybody who essentially, like if
- 1:57:31Speaker 3: you're together for ten years, like there's a level of divorce,
- 1:57:34Speaker 3: like you guys are in a marriage essentially, and then
- 1:57:36Speaker 3: you're not the one approaching the person about leaving. There's
- 1:57:40Speaker 3: got to be some type of like, you know, are
- 1:57:43Speaker 3: you all the.
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: Work I did, Bro, all this supported you like where
- 1:57:47Speaker 1: we've came from, where we've been, right, you were just
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: the toppings guy, right.
- 1:57:54Speaker 2: Yeah, right. There was definitely a period of time where
- 1:57:57Speaker 2: I was just like confused and I'm just like, bro,
- 1:58:00Speaker 2: like why like why now? And I even told him
- 1:58:02Speaker 2: We had good conversations around it, like even like being
- 1:58:06Speaker 2: real vulnerable, I'm like, bro, is it not like I
- 1:58:10Speaker 2: feel like I'm not enough for you? Like you know
- 1:58:12Speaker 2: what I mean? Like, honestly, it felt like a divorce
- 1:58:13Speaker 2: where you're like bro, and BK had this thing where
- 1:58:16Speaker 2: he's like, no, I still want to do Florida Georgia line.
- 1:58:18Speaker 2: I just want to do the solo thing.
- 1:58:21Speaker 3: Do you want to open relationship?
- 1:58:22Speaker 2: And I had to tell him, I go, bro, from
- 1:58:24Speaker 2: an emotional standpoint, I said, I know this is dramatic,
- 1:58:28Speaker 2: but this is what it feels like. It feels like
- 1:58:30Speaker 2: we're in a marriage and everything's great and we love
- 1:58:33Speaker 2: the benefits, but you want to go sleep with the
- 1:58:36Speaker 2: neighbors and come home at night and me be cool
- 1:58:39Speaker 2: with it and just like jump back in bed and
- 1:58:41Speaker 2: everything's cool and ah blah blah. And I said, emotionally,
- 1:58:44Speaker 2: it feels like that, bro, Like I can't, I can't
- 1:58:46Speaker 2: do both. I said, I'm going to give you the choice,
- 1:58:51Speaker 2: but it's either Florida Georgia line or solo career, because
- 1:58:54Speaker 2: also I don't have capacity to like do two careers.
- 1:58:59Speaker 2: And I said, it's all so like super it's gonna
- 1:59:01Speaker 2: get super sticky, like when we're writing songs who were
- 1:59:03Speaker 2: writing for when we're when we got two show offers,
- 1:59:05Speaker 2: an FGL day and a solo date, like what are
- 1:59:08Speaker 2: we taking here? So like I'm just like I don't
- 1:59:10Speaker 2: even logistically see how that would work, much less emotionally,
- 1:59:13Speaker 2: so like unless BK, it opens for both of you, right.
- 1:59:18Speaker 1: Of writing, like who's or Hey, that's a bang. Are
- 1:59:20Speaker 1: we thinking we're gonna use that?
- 1:59:22Speaker 2: Like, one thing I didn't know is like, Yo, it
- 1:59:24Speaker 2: takes every ounce of creativity and energy that we got
- 1:59:29Speaker 2: to keep this thing going. And we've always poured all
- 1:59:31Speaker 2: of our energy into this, so like to think that
- 1:59:33Speaker 2: we can only pour half of our energy into this
- 1:59:35Speaker 2: and expect it to do anything is a little bit naive.
- 1:59:38Speaker 2: And then I also told him, I'm like, bro, if
- 1:59:41Speaker 2: you want to be a solo artist, you don't deserve
- 1:59:43Speaker 2: to give yourself fifty percent, and I don't deserve fifty
- 1:59:46Speaker 2: of you. So it's either you give me one hundred
- 1:59:48Speaker 2: percent or you give yourself one hundred percent of you,
- 1:59:51Speaker 2: so you can go crush it. But there's no like,
- 1:59:53Speaker 2: we're not just gonna half ass both things. So so
- 1:59:56Speaker 2: for me it was that's kind of where my that
- 1:59:59Speaker 2: was my one boundary, you know. I was like, Yo,
- 2:00:00Speaker 2: I'm all about it, dude, Like whatever you need to do,
- 2:00:03Speaker 2: but here's my boundary. And so kind of gave him
- 2:00:06Speaker 2: the choice and he chose to go do the solo thing.
- 2:00:09Speaker 2: And at the time, like you said, I was kind
- 2:00:11Speaker 2: of like, man like, dude, like this sucks, bro, like
- 2:00:15Speaker 2: we built. Look what we've built.
- 2:00:17Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying together like you and.
- 2:00:19Speaker 2: Me, you know what I'm saying. And uh so, Yeah,
- 2:00:21Speaker 2: there was definitely some weeks of kind of like healing.
- 2:00:26Speaker 2: I would say, you know what I'm saying, Like we
- 2:00:27Speaker 2: had talks with therapists and life coaches and we kind
- 2:00:30Speaker 2: of susted it all out.
- 2:00:31Speaker 3: Yeah, they were separate together that's awesome. Yeah, Uh, it's
- 2:00:34Speaker 3: legitimately a marriage.
- 2:00:36Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:00:36Speaker 3: The more you talk about it, it's.
- 2:00:37Speaker 2: Like yo, And it was always right. I compared it
- 2:00:41Speaker 2: to that quite a bit because other than the sexual
- 2:00:44Speaker 2: side of things, it was very similar to our marriages,
- 2:00:47Speaker 2: where just like you know, it's a commitment, it takes work,
- 2:00:50Speaker 2: it takes dedication, and you know, it's all the things
- 2:00:53Speaker 2: when it comes to a partnership, uh, especially at that capacity.
- 2:00:57Speaker 3: You know.
- 2:00:57Speaker 2: So it was it's been interesting to navigate, but it's
- 2:01:01Speaker 2: also been fun and looking in hindsight now, I'm like
- 2:01:04Speaker 2: grateful for where we're at, grateful for that ride, grateful
- 2:01:07Speaker 2: for the new you know ride that we're on, and
- 2:01:10Speaker 2: you know, wouldn't have ever done it if he had
- 2:01:11Speaker 2: initiated it. So at the end of the day, I
- 2:01:13Speaker 2: kind of just sort of grateful that he did, you know.
- 2:01:16Speaker 3: All right, So the way I'm picturing this in my
- 2:01:18Speaker 3: head is you're in a ten year marriage. Everything seems good,
- 2:01:22Speaker 3: comes home, honey, listen, I love you, but I think
- 2:01:24Speaker 3: we should make this marriage open. You're like, I'm not
- 2:01:27Speaker 3: going to do that. You have to make a decision.
- 2:01:29Speaker 3: The decisions made. You're going through a divorce essentially, and
- 2:01:32Speaker 3: you think, in your mind, I'm never gonna get married again. AKA,
- 2:01:35Speaker 3: I'll be a songwriter. I can kind of fade off
- 2:01:38Speaker 3: in the distance. I've had all this success and I
- 2:01:39Speaker 3: can go make money making this catalog because that's where
- 2:01:42Speaker 3: a lot of the money's at. How long was that
- 2:01:44Speaker 3: process before You're like, you know what, fuck this dude.
- 2:01:47Speaker 3: Enough people have said the solo acting can't happen. Like,
- 2:01:50Speaker 3: if he's gonna go do it, I can go do
- 2:01:52Speaker 3: it too. And in your mind everyone's in competition, right,
- 2:01:55Speaker 3: probably do that better.
- 2:01:56Speaker 2: Also, I think it was eight months or so summer.
- 2:01:58Speaker 2: Six or eight months is not a ton of time
- 2:02:01Speaker 2: went by, but enough for me to really process, take
- 2:02:03Speaker 2: my time, be patient. And then the kicker was when
- 2:02:06Speaker 2: I met my manager, because before I felt really alone, right,
- 2:02:09Speaker 2: and I knew I just felt by alone. I mean,
- 2:02:14Speaker 2: I just didn't have tons of support. I didn't feel
- 2:02:16Speaker 2: like I had a team around me. I felt super alone.
- 2:02:18Speaker 2: And I knew, like definitely been in the game long
- 2:02:21Speaker 2: enough to know like you ain't doing it on your own,
- 2:02:23Speaker 2: you got to have a good team around you. So
- 2:02:24Speaker 2: when I met my manager, I felt super supported and
- 2:02:29Speaker 2: I was just like, you know what, I think I
- 2:02:30Speaker 2: could do this, especially with the help of this management team.
- 2:02:35Speaker 2: And I had already been writing a bunch of songs
- 2:02:37Speaker 2: at that point too, so I also had a good
- 2:02:39Speaker 2: stack of songs where I'm like, and I could make
- 2:02:41Speaker 2: a record tomorrow, so like, why not give it a shot?
- 2:02:45Speaker 3: You know.
- 2:02:45Speaker 2: But it did take that that like meeting him and
- 2:02:49Speaker 2: feeling like, all right, I'm not loaning this. I have
- 2:02:52Speaker 2: support team, I have somebody and bounce ideas off of
- 2:02:54Speaker 2: because BK was a lot of that for me coming up.
- 2:02:56Speaker 2: We bounced ideas off each other, and so when that
- 2:03:01Speaker 2: was kind of gone, I'm like, man, I don't I
- 2:03:03Speaker 2: don't know how to do this by myself.
- 2:03:04Speaker 1: So you know it tall, Yeah, talk about that fear
- 2:03:06Speaker 1: of failure, because I would say it's like literally top
- 2:03:09Speaker 1: of the world to I just went through this divorce
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: that probably took a while. There's probably friction everything else.
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: It takes eight months of the kind of the emotional
- 2:03:16Speaker 1: healing of it all and kind of seeing everything for
- 2:03:18Speaker 1: what it is, Like, Hey, I got you know, I
- 2:03:19Speaker 1: kind of want to move on. I'm writing, I like it,
- 2:03:21Speaker 1: and now I'm kind of getting that itch to you know,
- 2:03:23Speaker 1: I kind of want to perform, but talk through that
- 2:03:25Speaker 1: fear of failure. You're like, Okay, I'm going to go
- 2:03:27Speaker 1: back out there, and yeah, man, like falling flat on
- 2:03:29Speaker 1: your face. It we all have it. It's like you
- 2:03:32Speaker 1: we have this ego built up from like our glory days.
- 2:03:35Speaker 1: It's like, I'm about to put myself back out there.
- 2:03:37Speaker 1: Talk a little bit about that fear failure getting back
- 2:03:39Speaker 1: in it.
- 2:03:39Speaker 2: I mean, there was definitely a little bit of fear involved,
- 2:03:41Speaker 2: and I would say for me, I had to mentally
- 2:03:43Speaker 2: just say like, yo, do who you doing this for?
- 2:03:46Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like you're doing it for
- 2:03:47Speaker 2: you or you doing it for some other reason. So
- 2:03:50Speaker 2: I had to really just say like if I'm writing
- 2:03:53Speaker 2: songs that I'm loving, if I'm recording and I'm proud
- 2:03:56Speaker 2: of my art. Then that's all I can do, right, So, like,
- 2:04:00Speaker 2: whether it's as big as FGL, it probably won't be
- 2:04:03Speaker 2: because not many artists have ever been as big as FGL.
- 2:04:07Speaker 2: So it's like I had to kind of just accept,
- 2:04:08Speaker 2: like this might look different for me, but I want
- 2:04:11Speaker 2: to go write songs that I'm passionate about that I
- 2:04:15Speaker 2: love that might connect with other people and start playing
- 2:04:18Speaker 2: shows again. Also, you know, I also had so much
- 2:04:23Speaker 2: more to lift for right, So it wasn't like do
- 2:04:26Speaker 2: or die with the music thing. It was like, man,
- 2:04:27Speaker 2: let me just go enjoy making music and playing shows
- 2:04:30Speaker 2: and just enjoy it and not worry about having to
- 2:04:33Speaker 2: be the best all the time. Because then I was
- 2:04:36Speaker 2: getting to come home to three kids a great wife.
- 2:04:38Speaker 2: So in my perspective, I was like, yo, I'm already
- 2:04:42Speaker 2: I'm winning, man, Like, even if the music thing isn't
- 2:04:46Speaker 2: as big as FGL or trajectory doesn't take off like crazy,
- 2:04:49Speaker 2: Like I'm proud of my album, I'm proud of who
- 2:04:52Speaker 2: I am, I'm proud of how we've handled the situation,
- 2:04:55Speaker 2: and I'm proud to come now. I get to come
- 2:04:57Speaker 2: home to a great family, and this is how I
- 2:04:59Speaker 2: want to continue to support them, you know, and I
- 2:05:01Speaker 2: had to do something. I mean, writing songs would have
- 2:05:04Speaker 2: supported my family, but but it just seemed like a
- 2:05:08Speaker 2: piece of the puzzle, not not the whole puzzle. So yeah,
- 2:05:11Speaker 2: there was I had to step into that a bit
- 2:05:13Speaker 2: and be like, hey, if I fail, I'm gonna learn
- 2:05:15Speaker 2: from it and get back up and keep crushing and
- 2:05:18Speaker 2: not put too much pressure on myself. Try not to
- 2:05:21Speaker 2: let my ego drive this thing. And you know, remember
- 2:05:25Speaker 2: what life's all about.
- 2:05:26Speaker 3: Yeah, so at one point seems like, at least the
- 2:05:29Speaker 3: way I would think is I'm gonna go through my
- 2:05:31Speaker 3: morning process. But then the thing that's going to get
- 2:05:33Speaker 3: me out of that bed is revenge. Best revenge is
- 2:05:36Speaker 3: massive success. And then it's like, okay, I got to
- 2:05:38Speaker 3: check myself and be like, maybe maybe don't do it
- 2:05:40Speaker 3: for those reasons, right right right, And all the things
- 2:05:43Speaker 3: you just said when you were when you did those
- 2:05:45Speaker 3: eight months eight months of like writing songs and you're like, okay,
- 2:05:48Speaker 3: I'm gonna go do this solo act. Now U and
- 2:05:51Speaker 3: BK shouldering the burden of being a lead together. What
- 2:05:54Speaker 3: were some of the things that BK maybe have done
- 2:05:57Speaker 3: more in FGL that you thought, Okay, I know that
- 2:05:59Speaker 3: he did this for the most part, and how do
- 2:06:01Speaker 3: I pick up that slack on my end becoming my
- 2:06:04Speaker 3: own individual person.
- 2:06:09Speaker 2: Good question, Bro. I'd say he was a lot of
- 2:06:11Speaker 2: the times he was like the fun loving, like funny guy,
- 2:06:14Speaker 2: like lighthearted, brought a lot of good energy to a room.
- 2:06:17Speaker 2: You know, everybody loved to be around BK. Especially for
- 2:06:22Speaker 2: the most of our career. He was just like and
- 2:06:24Speaker 2: I might have been more like I don't know, maybe
- 2:06:29Speaker 2: a little bit less of that person.
- 2:06:30Speaker 1: So so.
- 2:06:32Speaker 2: I'd say there were times where he was a great
- 2:06:34Speaker 2: leader in those types of things, and I was able
- 2:06:36Speaker 2: to sit take the back seat a bit, you know,
- 2:06:39Speaker 2: and even subconsciously because I was more the lead vocal
- 2:06:43Speaker 2: and more of the face. At times, I would subconsciously
- 2:06:47Speaker 2: step out of certain roles more to allow him to
- 2:06:50Speaker 2: step into certain roles, so that hopefully it was well balanced,
- 2:06:53Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And so so now, you know,
- 2:06:57Speaker 2: taking on all the roles and putting all them, I
- 2:07:01Speaker 2: guess the pressure or all the responsibility on my shoulders
- 2:07:04Speaker 2: was definitely new. But also again it was great because
- 2:07:10Speaker 2: it allowed me to step into those roles that maybe
- 2:07:12Speaker 2: I hadn't fully stepped into. Before the to the best
- 2:07:15Speaker 2: of my ability, and so now I'm able to kind
- 2:07:18Speaker 2: of lead the way that i'd like to be a leader,
- 2:07:20Speaker 2: create culture that's not always worrying about like am I
- 2:07:23Speaker 2: stepping on someone that my partner's toes or am I
- 2:07:25Speaker 2: overshadowing my partner too much by investing in these people's
- 2:07:29Speaker 2: lives or those types of things. So it's been interesting
- 2:07:32Speaker 2: to kind of navigate and like and see how that's, uh,
- 2:07:37Speaker 2: that's something I didn't even know, like until I was
- 2:07:39Speaker 2: in it. I didn't even know that, like, oh, yeah,
- 2:07:42Speaker 2: I remember like not really investing as much into this
- 2:07:45Speaker 2: because I didn't I didn't want to look like I
- 2:07:48Speaker 2: was trying to just like always, you know.
- 2:07:50Speaker 3: Like do too much or do too much, yeah, try
- 2:07:53Speaker 3: to take too much with the life.
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: You can tell you've thought a lot of this stuff through,
- 2:07:55Speaker 1: and I really appreciate and like respect kind of your
- 2:07:58Speaker 1: perspective on all, because I'm sure it was as much
- 2:08:00Speaker 1: as well as you can explain it right now, I'm
- 2:08:02Speaker 1: sure it was just such a like process to get
- 2:08:04Speaker 1: to a lot of these awareness points and everything else.
- 2:08:07Speaker 2: Totally, and especially y'all remember like what twenty twenty was
- 2:08:10Speaker 2: like twenty twenty one. I mean, it was chaos in
- 2:08:12Speaker 2: all aspects of life. So like before we even decided
- 2:08:15Speaker 2: to do this, we had already been off the road
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: for like a year and a half, like wondering are
- 2:08:20Speaker 2: we ever going to play shows again? Like what's going
- 2:08:23Speaker 2: on with our career? Then the political thing, the political
- 2:08:27Speaker 2: narrative came out that me and him were so different, polarizing,
- 2:08:30Speaker 2: you know, politically, and a lot of people had these
- 2:08:32Speaker 2: faults narratives about why this was even happening, because we
- 2:08:36Speaker 2: weren't super upfront with the fans from the beginning, and
- 2:08:39Speaker 2: so that was also a little unfortunate where I'm like,
- 2:08:43Speaker 2: I'm in the back seat thinking like, no, guys, that's
- 2:08:45Speaker 2: not really the situation or not really the case. But
- 2:08:49Speaker 2: you can't control what people are thinking or saying, so
- 2:08:51Speaker 2: you just kind of got a ride with it and
- 2:08:52Speaker 2: just stick to your truth and just and let it be.
- 2:08:55Speaker 2: So that was interesting, just an interesting few years of
- 2:08:58Speaker 2: I mean, we all kind of went through just an
- 2:08:59Speaker 2: interesting like how do we navigate the pandemic? How do
- 2:09:03Speaker 2: we navigate all these factors in our culture at the time,
- 2:09:06Speaker 2: So it was a it was a confusing and hard
- 2:09:08Speaker 2: time but grateful for it.
- 2:09:09Speaker 3: And it seems like, yeah, when all these narratives and
- 2:09:11Speaker 3: all these like false things of why you guys are
- 2:09:13Speaker 3: breaking up or mutually parting, like how did you? Like
- 2:09:17Speaker 3: you obviously want to say something like did you go
- 2:09:19Speaker 3: and hit the people up? Like, hey, can I say this?
- 2:09:22Speaker 2: I felt like it was not really my h I
- 2:09:28Speaker 2: don't want to say responsibility, but it wasn't my role,
- 2:09:32Speaker 2: I felt like, and I felt like it was something
- 2:09:34Speaker 2: that I want to be a k to do, and
- 2:09:38Speaker 2: I felt like it was his. I didn't want to
- 2:09:40Speaker 2: take that from him. I didn't want to be like, no,
- 2:09:41Speaker 2: here's the situation, guys, blah blah blah blah blah. Yeah,
- 2:09:45Speaker 2: So I kind of just sat back and I kept
- 2:09:46Speaker 2: telling bek bro, we need to like I'd really love
- 2:09:49Speaker 2: for you to tell the fans like what's going on,
- 2:09:51Speaker 2: Like tell them your heart, tell them what we're doing,
- 2:09:53Speaker 2: tell them why we're doing it, tell them give them,
- 2:09:55Speaker 2: I said, because we want our fans to join us
- 2:09:57Speaker 2: on our new journey. We don't want them to just
- 2:10:00Speaker 2: just in with FGL and wonder whatever happened with FGL
- 2:10:03Speaker 2: and when's FGL coming back? It needs to be a
- 2:10:05Speaker 2: transition and these fans we built for the last decade
- 2:10:07Speaker 2: that they can come with us if we allow them
- 2:10:10Speaker 2: to and open the door and give them context. But
- 2:10:12Speaker 2: otherwise they're just confused and they're angry. Yeah, we're just
- 2:10:15Speaker 2: sitting in the back and assume everybody makes up the
- 2:10:18Speaker 2: worries in their heads. So that was happening a lot,
- 2:10:21Speaker 2: and it kind of still does because we still haven't
- 2:10:24Speaker 2: really you know, it's not like me and b K
- 2:10:26Speaker 2: have sat on it, sat down together and told the
- 2:10:28Speaker 2: world like the real ins and outs, because I still
- 2:10:30Speaker 2: think me and him both still have different, somewhat different
- 2:10:32Speaker 2: narratives in our head about how it unfolded. But uh,
- 2:10:35Speaker 2: but ultimately, we didn't talk about it very candidly from
- 2:10:39Speaker 2: the beginning, so it allowed a lot of that kind
- 2:10:41Speaker 2: of like people to make up stories and this and that,
- 2:10:45Speaker 2: and then you throw politics in the middle of it
- 2:10:46Speaker 2: and everybody just then it's an easy target for everybody
- 2:10:49Speaker 2: to be like, oh, yeah, well it's we see why
- 2:10:51Speaker 2: they broke up, you know, and it's like, well, really
- 2:10:52Speaker 2: had nothing to do.
- 2:10:53Speaker 3: With that, but yeah whatever, you know, Yeah, it's just
- 2:10:56Speaker 3: probably one of the how how often have you spoken
- 2:10:58Speaker 3: this openly? About that whole situation just.
- 2:11:01Speaker 2: A few times.
- 2:11:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:11:02Speaker 2: Yeah, most people are uncomfortable talking about it really, Yeah,
- 2:11:06Speaker 2: I fine, just because I don't know why. I don't
- 2:11:08Speaker 2: know if it's there uncomfortable.
- 2:11:09Speaker 3: Their personal business. And for you to sit with a
- 2:11:12Speaker 3: microphone in your face and for me and Will to
- 2:11:14Speaker 3: be like, so tell us about your breakup, Yeah, it's
- 2:11:16Speaker 3: got to. It's a You're essentially opening yourself up to
- 2:11:18Speaker 3: not only us but everybody listening.
- 2:11:20Speaker 2: Right. It's therapeutic for me honestly, Like at this point especially,
- 2:11:23Speaker 2: it's been like three and a half years, so I've,
- 2:11:25Speaker 2: like you said, well, I've really processed a lot, and
- 2:11:29Speaker 2: so to talk about it it is just another part
- 2:11:31Speaker 2: of the process for me. And uh, I'm kind of
- 2:11:33Speaker 2: an open book. I don't mind talking about it.
- 2:11:35Speaker 1: It might have almost like I'm just picturing it, like
- 2:11:38Speaker 1: if I'm like chilling with them. There's not a level
- 2:11:41Speaker 1: of you that's that wants to it's like, hey, so
- 2:11:44Speaker 1: so what happened? Because it almost you'd almost think the
- 2:11:47Speaker 1: outside or a third party perspective would just be like, oh,
- 2:11:49Speaker 1: I probably ended badly, and it might it might not
- 2:11:51Speaker 1: be going as great as it once was because FGL
- 2:11:53Speaker 1: was so high, so you almost like you almost don't
- 2:11:55Speaker 1: want to open up something that might be close to
- 2:11:57Speaker 1: you where it's like, Okay, I don't want to. I
- 2:12:00Speaker 1: mean we navigate.
- 2:12:00Speaker 3: You and I've done each other for what four years,
- 2:12:02Speaker 3: and so I was your friend during all that. I
- 2:12:05Speaker 3: never once for that exact reason, be around you, knowing
- 2:12:08Speaker 3: all this stuff's going down. But in my head, I'm like,
- 2:12:09Speaker 3: I don't want to. Hey, so Tyler, so what's going
- 2:12:12Speaker 3: on with all this? Because you just don't want to
- 2:12:15Speaker 3: put your friend in that position.
- 2:12:17Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, You're like, I don't know how people handle it,
- 2:12:19Speaker 2: you know, you don't know if people are more of
- 2:12:21Speaker 2: an open book that like to talk about things, or
- 2:12:23Speaker 2: maybe they like to keep it all in. But for me,
- 2:12:24Speaker 2: I appreciated and enjoyed when my real friends would be like, hey, bro,
- 2:12:29Speaker 2: like you doing all right?
- 2:12:30Speaker 5: Bro?
- 2:12:30Speaker 3: Doing good?
- 2:12:31Speaker 2: Like how you feeling, man? Because this shit is not easy,
- 2:12:34Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. And I'd be like, you're right,
- 2:12:36Speaker 2: it's not easy and I'm doing okay. But here's my
- 2:12:39Speaker 2: you know, but I'm frustrated or this or that. So
- 2:12:42Speaker 2: so we had and again that was during the time
- 2:12:44Speaker 2: where we weren't able to see anybody. We weren't able
- 2:12:46Speaker 2: to go really hang out. If you remember, it was
- 2:12:48Speaker 2: all just like virtual dates and virtual rights and virtual everything. Yeah,
- 2:12:53Speaker 2: you know, emotions were high. People didn't want to talk
- 2:12:55Speaker 2: about anything that could potentially be touchy or controversial or
- 2:12:59Speaker 2: or anything.
- 2:13:00Speaker 3: Topason only wanted to talk about that, right. It was
- 2:13:02Speaker 3: like one of the two.
- 2:13:02Speaker 2: Right, you're right, you're right. So there's a lot of
- 2:13:04Speaker 2: that going on. But uh, yeah, I had some some
- 2:13:08Speaker 2: good buddies that you know, I kind of leaned leaned
- 2:13:11Speaker 2: on and kind of like, you know, help me process
- 2:13:15Speaker 2: through it.
- 2:13:15Speaker 3: All we should do is get a couple of years
- 2:13:18Speaker 3: down the road, get you and b K on here,
- 2:13:21Speaker 3: just hash it out.
- 2:13:22Speaker 2: Just hash it out.
- 2:13:22Speaker 3: Therapy, therapeutic sessions with William.
- 2:13:29Speaker 1: Partners to partners. Yeah you do, you guys talk anymore.
- 2:13:33Speaker 2: It's pretty minimal now, bro, I don't I don't know
- 2:13:35Speaker 2: if b K needs some space or what. But I
- 2:13:38Speaker 2: still try to reach out on texts and stuff.
- 2:13:40Speaker 1: But hey, congrats on me.
- 2:13:42Speaker 2: Yeah that's what I do. Yeah, just congrats on the
- 2:13:44Speaker 2: new song or whatever whatever. But uh, there's not a
- 2:13:47Speaker 2: whole lot of engagement at.
- 2:13:48Speaker 1: This point to be honest, you feel like FGL will
- 2:13:51Speaker 1: get back together for reunion at some point down the road.
- 2:13:55Speaker 2: It's really hard to say. Yeah, I'll never. I'll never
- 2:13:59Speaker 2: say never, but a lot of stuff would have to change,
- 2:14:03Speaker 2: to be honest, A lot of dynamics would have to
- 2:14:05Speaker 2: There'd have to be some real long open conversations. Yeah,
- 2:14:11Speaker 2: some healing would have to be done for sure before
- 2:14:14Speaker 2: that ever happened.
- 2:14:15Speaker 3: Yeah, hopefully, guys both just can never know.
- 2:14:18Speaker 2: Yeah, man, just bring it back. I still I really yeah, exactly,
- 2:14:21Speaker 2: that'd be kind of cool. I love that like narrative honestly,
- 2:14:24Speaker 2: even if it's ten years down the road. Like That's
- 2:14:26Speaker 2: why I really wish the best for b K. I
- 2:14:28Speaker 2: hope he has a huge solo career because yeah, if
- 2:14:30Speaker 2: we both have big careers and then come back and
- 2:14:32Speaker 2: do something cool together, I think you could be there.
- 2:14:35Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:14:35Speaker 1: Remember when we were bitching out back in the day,
- 2:14:37Speaker 1: like right, Yeah, it was.
- 2:14:41Speaker 3: Like, hey, I'm sorry, both of them.
- 2:14:43Speaker 2: Probably I'm sorry. No, he knows. I tell him, I'm like, Bro,
- 2:14:48Speaker 2: I'm always here, bro if you ever want to like talk,
- 2:14:51Speaker 2: grab coffee, like going to hike, Like, I'm here, Bro,
- 2:14:55Speaker 2: I'm not mad at you. Uh, so it's good. I
- 2:14:58Speaker 2: think he knows. He knows I'm at and he knows
- 2:15:01Speaker 2: that I'm doing my thing, but I'm still here for him.
- 2:15:03Speaker 1: Yeah, talk about do you had something to go?
- 2:15:07Speaker 3: Just say so eight months down the road, you start this,
- 2:15:10Speaker 3: your management team comes to you, like, how quickly because
- 2:15:13Speaker 3: you should you do other songs on the banks, so
- 2:15:14Speaker 3: you do an album tomorrow. How quickly did that process
- 2:15:17Speaker 3: get started?
- 2:15:21Speaker 2: It was pretty quick, bro, Once we hit the gas,
- 2:15:23Speaker 2: I mean it was like, let's start recording music, let's
- 2:15:25Speaker 2: start setting up strategy. What I loved about my new
- 2:15:27Speaker 2: team was it was everything we do is super intentional,
- 2:15:30Speaker 2: so like strategic everything. Yeah, so it's fun to really
- 2:15:34Speaker 2: sit down, all right, what are we going to do here?
- 2:15:36Speaker 2: What's the goals? How do we want to you know,
- 2:15:40Speaker 2: reintroduce you to the world. Like what I found was
- 2:15:43Speaker 2: a lot of people didn't really know who I was,
- 2:15:45Speaker 2: Like as far as like who Tyler Hubbard is as
- 2:15:47Speaker 2: a person. They thought they knew Florida George Line even
- 2:15:51Speaker 2: in town, you know, like we had a reputation. People
- 2:15:55Speaker 2: just assumed I was BK and BK was me, and
- 2:15:57Speaker 2: we were one unit and we were the same and
- 2:15:59Speaker 2: they also assume that we never changed in ten years,
- 2:16:01Speaker 2: you know what I mean, that we're still just these crazy, wild,
- 2:16:05Speaker 2: you know, three year old ego testicle. Yeah, and they're
- 2:16:09Speaker 2: like all sleeves and a bunch of ego like we
- 2:16:13Speaker 2: were twenty three years old even when we were thirty, right.
- 2:16:16Speaker 2: It's like, so and that was probably part of partially
- 2:16:20Speaker 2: our fault. But what I but I didn't realize that
- 2:16:22Speaker 2: until I stepped into the solo thing, and that took
- 2:16:24Speaker 2: me a minute to reintroduce myself to to not only
- 2:16:29Speaker 2: the world, but to Nashville and to the music community
- 2:16:31Speaker 2: and kind of say like, hey, you guys know the
- 2:16:36Speaker 2: twenty three year old Tyler, but now I'm thirty four
- 2:16:38Speaker 2: years old and I you know, I'm a different person
- 2:16:40Speaker 2: and I want to introduce who I am now and
- 2:16:43Speaker 2: here's the music I'm working on. And uh so all
- 2:16:46Speaker 2: that was kind of like a blessing too, if you know,
- 2:16:49Speaker 2: in hindsight, because you're like, man like, if we were
- 2:16:52Speaker 2: still doing fgl like we might just still be known
- 2:16:54Speaker 2: as the twenty three year old party band, you know.
- 2:16:59Speaker 2: So again, it's just another one of those kind of
- 2:17:02Speaker 2: blessings along the way that I got to re reintroduce
- 2:17:06Speaker 2: myself and kind of rebuild my reputation, this more authentic
- 2:17:09Speaker 2: to who I am at this point.
- 2:17:10Speaker 1: You know, yeah, dude, I'm so fascinated to kind of
- 2:17:13Speaker 1: know about the behind the scenes stuff of the business
- 2:17:16Speaker 1: of music, because, like you you alluded to it earlier.
- 2:17:19Speaker 1: You're like, oh, they're paying me, you know, how much
- 2:17:21Speaker 1: does it take to cover your expenses a month or
- 2:17:23Speaker 1: something like that. And if you're a big brain think,
- 2:17:25Speaker 1: you're like, oh, man Tyler, he has no clue that
- 2:17:27Speaker 1: he's an incredible writer. And if we're just dishing of
- 2:17:29Speaker 1: fifteen hundred bucks a month for him to pump out
- 2:17:32Speaker 1: songs that we might use, that they might use. And
- 2:17:34Speaker 1: then you also alluded to we're about to be out
- 2:17:37Speaker 1: of this first deal to where we're kind of set
- 2:17:39Speaker 1: up for whatever we want to do. And then now
- 2:17:41Speaker 1: you're talking about you know, I'm sending in these meetings,
- 2:17:43Speaker 1: we're talking about strategizing. How am I going to reintroduce myself?
- 2:17:46Speaker 1: Can you talk about some of that behind the scenes
- 2:17:47Speaker 1: stuff with FGL because it seems like you guys just exploded.
- 2:17:50Speaker 1: People saw like, oh shit, these guys are gonna be massive.
- 2:17:52Speaker 1: Let's put enough dollars around him that we need to
- 2:17:55Speaker 1: capitalize on. We'll throw FGL house down downtown, We'll do
- 2:17:58Speaker 1: all these things. You're not in the strategy meetings. Can
- 2:18:00Speaker 1: you talk about that at all? Yeah?
- 2:18:02Speaker 2: I mean the music business is crazy, bro, and I
- 2:18:04Speaker 2: think that's why I love it. And it's never it's
- 2:18:06Speaker 2: always changing. So like, for example, when we signed our
- 2:18:09Speaker 2: first record deal in twenty twelve, there wasn't even streaming
- 2:18:13Speaker 2: back then, you know what I'm saying, which was like
- 2:18:16Speaker 2: forever ago. But Spotify was no Spotify, there was no Pandora,
- 2:18:20Speaker 2: there was no Apple Music. I mean it was Apple.
- 2:18:22Speaker 2: It was where you go and buy songs.
- 2:18:24Speaker 1: Yeah, remember that felt taboo because you'd still just lime
- 2:18:28Speaker 1: wire right.
- 2:18:29Speaker 2: Stealing the music, or you're going and buying an album, right.
- 2:18:32Speaker 2: And that was and that changed pretty quickly, Like thirteen
- 2:18:35Speaker 2: fourteen or so is when that streaming really became a thing.
- 2:18:39Speaker 2: So even that as a as an example, where like,
- 2:18:42Speaker 2: you know, you create this whole record deal around this
- 2:18:44Speaker 2: whole business model, and then all of a sudden, the
- 2:18:47Speaker 2: business model changes and there's new revenue being created from streaming,
- 2:18:51Speaker 2: this going to the label that they didn't even account
- 2:18:53Speaker 2: for in the original deal, so like for them, it
- 2:18:55Speaker 2: was a huge win. But but yeah, bro, like the music.
- 2:18:58Speaker 2: That's why I love the music business because as as
- 2:19:00Speaker 2: soon as you get it figured out, it changes and
- 2:19:02Speaker 2: you're just like okay. But it's also super complex and complicated.
- 2:19:07Speaker 2: And I even went to school for music business, Bro,
- 2:19:10Speaker 2: I went to Belmont Study. That was my major music
- 2:19:12Speaker 2: business and I probably could learned more in school, to
- 2:19:15Speaker 2: be honest with myself, but I still felt like.
- 2:19:20Speaker 6: Degree.
- 2:19:21Speaker 2: But I'm still pretty green and I'm still like, even
- 2:19:23Speaker 2: to this day, I'm figuring it out, you know. But
- 2:19:25Speaker 2: it's a lot of fun because it is so intricate
- 2:19:27Speaker 2: and there's so so many layers you can kind of unfold,
- 2:19:30Speaker 2: unpeel and and uh from the publishing company side of things,
- 2:19:34Speaker 2: to the record label side, to the management side, to
- 2:19:37Speaker 2: development side and artists side. I mean, there's just a
- 2:19:40Speaker 2: lot of intricate little yeah things. So it's uh, it
- 2:19:44Speaker 2: can be a scary business just because you never really
- 2:19:46Speaker 2: fully understand it all right, but it's also fun keeps
- 2:19:50Speaker 2: you on your toes because it's not it's not static.
- 2:19:52Speaker 1: Would there be friction with the label, like when the
- 2:19:54Speaker 1: new revenue would get generated from like the streaming service
- 2:19:57Speaker 1: and be like, okay, well, I mean contractually they have
- 2:19:59Speaker 1: the right suc X, Y and Z, but give me
- 2:20:02Speaker 1: a little bit yeah, let me get a little bit on.
- 2:20:05Speaker 2: We had a pretty good dynamic and relationship with our
- 2:20:08Speaker 2: record label through our whole career, probably because we were
- 2:20:11Speaker 2: making them so much money, but it was good, you know,
- 2:20:15Speaker 2: and we had kind of the relationship where they were
- 2:20:17Speaker 2: a little more like behind the scenes and we would
- 2:20:20Speaker 2: go and do our thing creatively and then just turn
- 2:20:22Speaker 2: in our projects and ask them for our needs and
- 2:20:24Speaker 2: they would usually give us what we needed. And it
- 2:20:26Speaker 2: was kind of because sometimes you get too many cooks
- 2:20:29Speaker 2: in the kitchen, you know, people want to be involved,
- 2:20:31Speaker 2: and it can get really it can get more difficult,
- 2:20:35Speaker 2: cluttered up everybody's opinions because music is so objective and
- 2:20:38Speaker 2: opinionated that it's just sometimes it's like, no, we just
- 2:20:40Speaker 2: want to keep a tight circle of creatives that we
- 2:20:43Speaker 2: love and trust, and we're going to have you know,
- 2:20:46Speaker 2: our manager, our producer and basically me and BK we're
- 2:20:49Speaker 2: going to make the decisions and execute all the things
- 2:20:51Speaker 2: and then we'll we'll turn it in and the label
- 2:20:54Speaker 2: we'll you know, exploit it. Or work it or however
- 2:20:57Speaker 2: you want to look at it. But so for that,
- 2:20:59Speaker 2: but I talked to artists friends of mine. You know
- 2:21:01Speaker 2: that it can just get so diluted and confusing and
- 2:21:08Speaker 2: uh kind of over complicated.
- 2:21:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:21:10Speaker 2: Sure, so it's a it's a complex thing. But we
- 2:21:12Speaker 2: we we got pretty lucky along the way. To be honest,
- 2:21:14Speaker 2: we never we never had that. But I set this.
- 2:21:17Speaker 2: I set the stage really early when the first label
- 2:21:19Speaker 2: meeting we ever had, I was like, look again, this
- 2:21:22Speaker 2: is that twenty three year old ego coming out. But
- 2:21:24Speaker 2: I was like, hey, guys, we don't even need y'all.
- 2:21:27Speaker 2: Me and BK got this and we're gonna build and
- 2:21:29Speaker 2: we're out here building fans and building a career. If
- 2:21:32Speaker 2: you guys want to be a part of our career,
- 2:21:34Speaker 2: then you're welcome to join us, but you're going to
- 2:21:35Speaker 2: do it our way, and we're going to learn from
- 2:21:37Speaker 2: you guys. But you guys aren't going to dictate what
- 2:21:39Speaker 2: we do. You're not going to try to change us,
- 2:21:40Speaker 2: tell us what to do. None of that's happened here.
- 2:21:42Speaker 2: So if you guys want to sign us, just know
- 2:21:44Speaker 2: that ahead of time. And and literally that kind of
- 2:21:46Speaker 2: stood the test of time, and they really kind of
- 2:21:49Speaker 2: like something ego sounds good, good will, it's a little
- 2:21:51Speaker 2: bit of both, but it was like beneficial ego, right
- 2:21:54Speaker 2: or whatever, Like yeah, right, that's just the ego you need,
- 2:21:57Speaker 2: just the amount of confidence, like set the stage for
- 2:21:59Speaker 2: what's happen, because a lot of times artists don't know
- 2:22:02Speaker 2: who they are, what they want to do, or nothing
- 2:22:03Speaker 2: like that, and it makes it easy for labels to
- 2:22:05Speaker 2: come in and somewhat manipulate or you know, I think
- 2:22:09Speaker 2: they're going to mold somebody into what they want. A
- 2:22:11Speaker 2: lot of times that doesn't just just doesn't work well.
- 2:22:13Speaker 2: So it was nice to have that already kind of
- 2:22:16Speaker 2: in place with.
- 2:22:16Speaker 3: Your process and like setting that tone. Did you ever
- 2:22:19Speaker 3: run into the label being like, hey, maybe you should
- 2:22:21Speaker 3: make the song a little more X Y and Z,
- 2:22:23Speaker 3: a little more poppy, a little more like this, because
- 2:22:25Speaker 3: this is what's in right now, this is what the region,
- 2:22:28Speaker 3: this is what labels.
- 2:22:29Speaker 6: Do do that.
- 2:22:29Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, But for some reason in our scenario, it
- 2:22:33Speaker 2: was they just trusted us, and I think I don't
- 2:22:35Speaker 2: know if we spoke this out loud, but it was
- 2:22:38Speaker 2: sort of that understanding of you do it our way
- 2:22:41Speaker 2: until it don't work, and then we'll listen to your way.
- 2:22:44Speaker 2: And fortunately for us, it always kind of worked. So
- 2:22:46Speaker 2: we never had a real like creative dispute or kind
- 2:22:52Speaker 2: of you know, we didn't really butt haas too much.
- 2:22:54Speaker 2: It was very much like, Okay, whatever you guys want
- 2:22:57Speaker 2: to do, we'll do it, and it most of the
- 2:22:59Speaker 2: time that worked out. There was a few times where
- 2:23:01Speaker 2: they pushed on a single. I mean we did have
- 2:23:03Speaker 2: We did but heads once or twice, and but ultimately
- 2:23:08Speaker 2: it worked out. But for the most part, I was thankful.
- 2:23:10Speaker 2: It was just like, hey, y'all, let us do our thing,
- 2:23:13Speaker 2: and we'll let y'all do your thing.
- 2:23:14Speaker 1: What was the single they pushed on.
- 2:23:16Speaker 2: It was one of the last singles. I think wanted
- 2:23:19Speaker 2: us to put out a little Bit as a single
- 2:23:21Speaker 2: at country radio, which is basically a hip hop song,
- 2:23:24Speaker 2: and we knew it was going to be our last single,
- 2:23:26Speaker 2: and I was just like, I'd rather not put that
- 2:23:29Speaker 2: single out because radios first of all, not going to
- 2:23:32Speaker 2: play this song. Secondly, I don't want to end on
- 2:23:34Speaker 2: a hip hop song. I wanted to I want to
- 2:23:36Speaker 2: end strong on a great country song. You know, we've
- 2:23:38Speaker 2: got an album full.
- 2:23:39Speaker 3: Of country songs.
- 2:23:40Speaker 2: So that was a little bit of like that was
- 2:23:42Speaker 2: a little frustrating because ultimately the label has the power
- 2:23:46Speaker 2: to do whatever they wanted to do.
- 2:23:47Speaker 3: Really, yeah, of the day, so you have your voice
- 2:23:50Speaker 3: like we have.
- 2:23:52Speaker 2: They kind of pulled that card and did their thing
- 2:23:54Speaker 2: and and that's why I'm not right now. But it
- 2:24:00Speaker 2: worked out. Yeah, it worked out. It was great.
- 2:24:02Speaker 3: When you talk about the strategy of like rebranding yourself
- 2:24:05Speaker 3: thirty four year old Tyler Hubbard to the entire world,
- 2:24:07Speaker 3: Like what went into the strategy? Like how obviously you're
- 2:24:10Speaker 3: uniquely yourself and you know who your yourself is, but
- 2:24:13Speaker 3: how does one show themselves in the light they want
- 2:24:16Speaker 3: to be shown to the world.
- 2:24:17Speaker 2: Well, yo, I first of all had to go on
- 2:24:19Speaker 2: a deep dive myself because.
- 2:24:20Speaker 3: I think, you know, yeah, yeah, me and Rogers dude
- 2:24:30Speaker 3: talking to God, just having a journey.
- 2:24:34Speaker 2: But no, dude, I said, I sat, uh, spent some
- 2:24:36Speaker 2: time like really diving into like who I am now,
- 2:24:40Speaker 2: how do I want to be portrayed? How do I
- 2:24:42Speaker 2: want to present myself? What's important to me? What do
- 2:24:45Speaker 2: I want to say in my music? What do what
- 2:24:47Speaker 2: do I want my music to make people feel?
- 2:24:49Speaker 3: Like?
- 2:24:50Speaker 2: You know and ultimately, uh, it was it was a
- 2:24:53Speaker 2: really good time of self discovery, you know what I'm saying,
- 2:24:56Speaker 2: where I was like, Okay, it felt like I knew
- 2:24:58Speaker 2: myself well at that point, but I I had to
- 2:25:00Speaker 2: kind of vocalize it. And because I think even me,
- 2:25:03Speaker 2: even myself would kind of fall to that, uh, holding
- 2:25:07Speaker 2: up the reputation that we might have had. You know
- 2:25:09Speaker 2: what I'm saying, like, well, I can't do this and
- 2:25:11Speaker 2: that within FGL because it's not what FGL does. So
- 2:25:15Speaker 2: when the when the slate was kind of white clean,
- 2:25:18Speaker 2: and I was able to just like really suck it
- 2:25:19Speaker 2: out and take some time to think about it again,
- 2:25:23Speaker 2: I have I had a great life coach. It helped
- 2:25:25Speaker 2: kind of like navigate that.
- 2:25:26Speaker 5: With me.
- 2:25:28Speaker 2: Once the song started like coming together. I mean I
- 2:25:31Speaker 2: probably had a pile of like thirty or forty songs
- 2:25:33Speaker 2: that I really loved, but like narrowing it down to
- 2:25:36Speaker 2: an album and figuring out, Okay, I wanted to be dynamic, diverse.
- 2:25:40Speaker 2: I want people to know that, Hey, I still like
- 2:25:42Speaker 2: to have a good time, but I love my family.
- 2:25:46Speaker 2: I'm a man of faith. I like to you know,
- 2:25:48Speaker 2: I like to write songs from the heart too. You know,
- 2:25:50Speaker 2: there's I lost my dad when I was twenty, So
- 2:25:52Speaker 2: let's touch on that, like letting the fans in on
- 2:25:54Speaker 2: my on a little bit more of who I am
- 2:25:57Speaker 2: and where I came from, my story with some that
- 2:26:00Speaker 2: I had never got to do before, you know, because
- 2:26:01Speaker 2: usually you know, when you got a partner and you're
- 2:26:04Speaker 2: in a you're in a group, you don't get as
- 2:26:06Speaker 2: personal with it, you know, just again just for that
- 2:26:10Speaker 2: dynamic aspect, so that everything we do is like an
- 2:26:12Speaker 2: US thing. So so that was it was really fun
- 2:26:16Speaker 2: to dive in and be like, man, who am I?
- 2:26:18Speaker 2: And what do I you know, what do I want
- 2:26:19Speaker 2: to leave? What's my legacy?
- 2:26:21Speaker 1: You know?
- 2:26:21Speaker 2: Do I want to I don't want I think FGL
- 2:26:24Speaker 2: is just like chapter one, you know, and so so yeah,
- 2:26:28Speaker 2: it was cool to kind of go there and figure
- 2:26:31Speaker 2: it out. And I feel like now people probably know
- 2:26:34Speaker 2: the most authentic version of who I am, and uh,
- 2:26:37Speaker 2: it's been fun to kind of figure that out when.
- 2:26:39Speaker 3: You're when when you go in this deep dive and
- 2:26:42Speaker 3: you come back, what is how did your management team
- 2:26:47Speaker 3: publicly display you? Okay, you're a man of faith, family man,
- 2:26:52Speaker 3: write songs from the heart, lost your dad when you
- 2:26:54Speaker 3: were twenty, was there like a strategy that went to, Okay,
- 2:26:58Speaker 3: we need your social media. It's going to look like
- 2:26:59Speaker 3: X Y or kind of because there's there is a
- 2:27:02Speaker 3: level of like to change your reputation, you need to
- 2:27:06Speaker 3: first change it yourself and then present it to the world.
- 2:27:09Speaker 3: How does how does the management team present it to
- 2:27:11Speaker 3: the world.
- 2:27:12Speaker 2: Well, first of all, I'll never forget one of the
- 2:27:14Speaker 2: first meetings I had with the management team was I
- 2:27:18Speaker 2: sat down with them and they had a They had
- 2:27:20Speaker 2: like a two page paper full of questions that were
- 2:27:23Speaker 2: like some were service level, some were like really hard
- 2:27:26Speaker 2: questions who are you? Like what do you what do
- 2:27:30Speaker 2: you want to say to the world, Like really hard
- 2:27:32Speaker 2: questions that I like sat with and live with, you know.
- 2:27:34Speaker 2: So they were getting to know me through that process,
- 2:27:37Speaker 2: But I was getting to know myself in that current,
- 2:27:39Speaker 2: current state and that current time. And so once we
- 2:27:42Speaker 2: sort of established that and they had a good grasp
- 2:27:44Speaker 2: of like who I am, my personality, what what kind
- 2:27:47Speaker 2: of like personality traits we wanted to lean in on
- 2:27:50Speaker 2: that were, you know, really who I was. It was
- 2:27:54Speaker 2: fun to kind of to kind of strategize together. But
- 2:27:58Speaker 2: a lot of that came with sitting down with the town,
- 2:28:01Speaker 2: if you will, and just face to face meetings. Man,
- 2:28:04Speaker 2: just playing on my knee music, sharing with my heart,
- 2:28:07Speaker 2: sharing where I was, who I was, and then just
- 2:28:11Speaker 2: trying to be fully me. You know, there's a there's
- 2:28:14Speaker 2: a lot of different sides of who I am. But
- 2:28:15Speaker 2: it was fun to kind of and it took time, dude,
- 2:28:17Speaker 2: I mean we spent weeks. You know, they'd set up
- 2:28:20Speaker 2: meetings with all the DSPs individually, so I'd sit down
- 2:28:23Speaker 2: and just sort of reintroduce myself very very literally in
- 2:28:28Speaker 2: a sense of like you know, I know, you guys
- 2:28:30Speaker 2: know me from FGIL, but here's who I am and
- 2:28:32Speaker 2: where I'm at now in life. And we got to say,
- 2:28:36Speaker 2: and it says when the town or win the room,
- 2:28:39Speaker 2: when the town win the world. So we literally started
- 2:28:42Speaker 2: in a room, you know what I mean, And slowly
- 2:28:44Speaker 2: but surely we but like we were winning the room,
- 2:28:47Speaker 2: and then we would then we were winning the town,
- 2:28:49Speaker 2: and now we're winning the world. Trying to you know,
- 2:28:53Speaker 2: as a as a process strategy, as opposed, it doesn't
- 2:28:56Speaker 2: happen overnight either. It's just you know, one thing at
- 2:28:58Speaker 2: a time. So that was kind of ourmo It was.
- 2:29:00Speaker 1: Probably awesome too, like once you start playing for everybody,
- 2:29:03Speaker 1: like them, seeing the reaction, the positive reaction to your
- 2:29:06Speaker 1: new music, because yeah, you're getting to know yourself, which
- 2:29:09Speaker 1: is a very vulnerable state for anybody to be in
- 2:29:11Speaker 1: to do that. And they'd be like, all right, well
- 2:29:12Speaker 1: now I'm about to step out here in front of everybody, like,
- 2:29:15Speaker 1: let's go fucking see.
- 2:29:16Speaker 2: See if they Let's see if they resonate.
- 2:29:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:29:18Speaker 2: Putting out that first single or playing those first few shows,
- 2:29:21Speaker 2: you know, you're just like, well, ope, they dig it. Yeah,
- 2:29:25Speaker 2: they're coming to this.
- 2:29:26Speaker 3: But walking into the room with like your a guitar,
- 2:29:28Speaker 3: be like, all right, guys playing some of this new music.
- 2:29:30Speaker 3: I am were just suit sitting there like give us
- 2:29:32Speaker 3: your best shot, brother, Yeah, that's gotta be nerve wracking.
- 2:29:35Speaker 2: Kind of well for sure.
- 2:29:36Speaker 3: Yeah that's definitely let me do that again. Let me
- 2:29:38Speaker 3: hit that one much?
- 2:29:39Speaker 2: Yeah yeah yeah, but it was fun. God, the challenge.
- 2:29:43Speaker 3: So the first album comes out, see like it seemed
- 2:29:45Speaker 3: like I was doing really well. I don't follow ratings
- 2:29:47Speaker 3: or anything like that. Were you surprised? Happy? Like what
- 2:29:51Speaker 3: was your first like your emotions towards your first album solo?
- 2:29:54Speaker 3: They came out.
- 2:29:55Speaker 2: I was pumped. Bro.
- 2:29:56Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:29:56Speaker 2: The first single went to number one, and I think
- 2:29:59Speaker 2: that was sort of like, Okay, okay, there, you know,
- 2:30:03Speaker 2: I still have a spot at country radio. They're still
- 2:30:06Speaker 2: you know, they're behind me, They're backing me. I felt
- 2:30:08Speaker 2: more and more support. So with more and more support,
- 2:30:10Speaker 2: it just came more momentum and more confidence, you know
- 2:30:14Speaker 2: what I mean. And then I dropped my album and
- 2:30:17Speaker 2: it was received really well. And then my second single
- 2:30:19Speaker 2: came to country radio and it went to number one,
- 2:30:22Speaker 2: and again it was just like, okay, all right, I'm
- 2:30:26Speaker 2: back in the game, baby, I'm you know, and I'm competitive.
- 2:30:29Speaker 2: I got I got a slot at country radio because
- 2:30:31Speaker 2: it is a super competitive. There's so many artists out
- 2:30:34Speaker 2: there that are trying to get that spot, you know
- 2:30:36Speaker 2: what I mean. So it was really nice to be like, Okay,
- 2:30:38Speaker 2: I still got support from country radio. The fans are
- 2:30:41Speaker 2: resonating with the music at the time, you know, last year,
- 2:30:45Speaker 2: playing tons of shows and watching every night, just kind
- 2:30:48Speaker 2: of grow and grow and grow, and just kind of
- 2:30:51Speaker 2: took that momentum into my next project. And at this point,
- 2:30:55Speaker 2: I'm feeling like, man, I've kind of found my stride.
- 2:30:57Speaker 2: I'm in a groove, the fans are showing up, and
- 2:31:01Speaker 2: it's just steady growing and watching it grows is fun.
- 2:31:04Speaker 3: Yeah, all for you too, yep, but just gotta be
- 2:31:07Speaker 3: Are you a unique feeling? Yeah for sure when you
- 2:31:09Speaker 3: look at your this album, what it like? Obviously the
- 2:31:11Speaker 3: songs are gonna be different. But what is a different
- 2:31:13Speaker 3: vibe between this new album coming out and your last album?
- 2:31:17Speaker 2: Ah, this one's probably it's a little shorter. I say
- 2:31:21Speaker 2: this album is kind of creative for the fans, and uh,
- 2:31:25Speaker 2: I've been saying this, but it's so true. Like last
- 2:31:28Speaker 2: year was the first time that I met my fans,
- 2:31:30Speaker 2: like my personal fans, like in person and got to
- 2:31:32Speaker 2: play show a show for them and watch what's resonating,
- 2:31:37Speaker 2: see what's connecting, see what's working, see what's missing.
- 2:31:39Speaker 1: You know.
- 2:31:40Speaker 2: So I was at the same time that I was
- 2:31:42Speaker 2: out playing all these shows, I was also taking mental
- 2:31:44Speaker 2: notes and being like all right, going straight back to
- 2:31:46Speaker 2: the bus and starting to write songs that were like
- 2:31:49Speaker 2: I feel like this set could use this, or I
- 2:31:50Speaker 2: feel like I want to play something like this live,
- 2:31:52Speaker 2: or I think the fans really dig this, And so
- 2:31:54Speaker 2: we kind of reverse engineered this project and it's it's
- 2:31:57Speaker 2: just made. It's just a fun project. It's really made
- 2:32:00Speaker 2: to play live, and it's it's really for the fans.
- 2:32:02Speaker 2: Where my first project, my first album was the sole
- 2:32:05Speaker 2: purpose was to introduce myself, you know, and to say here,
- 2:32:07Speaker 2: here's who I am. Face name songs. You know, it's
- 2:32:11Speaker 2: very just cutting druy. I mean you can even look
- 2:32:12Speaker 2: at the album cover. It's like face name songs, you know.
- 2:32:17Speaker 2: Like so so now it's a little bit like okay,
- 2:32:20Speaker 2: now we know each other. Now let's let's have some
- 2:32:22Speaker 2: fun with it. So yeah, it's feeling good a song
- 2:32:25Speaker 2: for the fans.
- 2:32:25Speaker 3: You talk about writing like like going right from a
- 2:32:27Speaker 3: venue into the bus, yeah, and getting after it. You
- 2:32:30Speaker 3: hear like when all the breakup and stuff is going on,
- 2:32:33Speaker 3: there's all the nationals a small town, so everyone's whispering
- 2:32:36Speaker 3: to everybody else's business. And I always heard, like the
- 2:32:39Speaker 3: guy he really writes all the music. He's really the guy,
- 2:32:42Speaker 3: the writer. And so how hard, Like what is your
- 2:32:44Speaker 3: process like writing is it does it come very naturally
- 2:32:47Speaker 3: to you writing?
- 2:32:48Speaker 2: It does? Yeah, it does, And I've been doing it
- 2:32:51Speaker 2: for so long and I just love like living in
- 2:32:53Speaker 2: Nashville and being around so many epic songwriters, you know
- 2:32:57Speaker 2: what I mean, and getting in the room and collaborate
- 2:33:00Speaker 2: and then just writing songs. And a lot of times,
- 2:33:03Speaker 2: you know, I've written with no intention, you know, just
- 2:33:06Speaker 2: to write a song, to write a song and see
- 2:33:07Speaker 2: where it goes to like, hey, this song's for us.
- 2:33:10Speaker 2: Let's try to be very intentional with this song. We
- 2:33:12Speaker 2: want to record the song. And then I've also, especially lately,
- 2:33:16Speaker 2: I've been doing tons of rits with other artists, which
- 2:33:18Speaker 2: is probably one of my top favorite things to do
- 2:33:21Speaker 2: is try to like, you know, I guess pull from
- 2:33:26Speaker 2: another artist, like what do you want to say? What
- 2:33:28Speaker 2: do you basically hang the dartboard is what I call it,
- 2:33:30Speaker 2: and then sit there and try to hit bulls eye
- 2:33:32Speaker 2: with the song and so and when you when you
- 2:33:35Speaker 2: hit a bull's eye and you leave that day, you
- 2:33:36Speaker 2: just feel so like fulfilled. I think this is going
- 2:33:42Speaker 2: to be perfect for this artist. Hopefully this artist now
- 2:33:44Speaker 2: can have a big old hit and they can have
- 2:33:47Speaker 2: a career, you know, And so that's really fulfilling for
- 2:33:50Speaker 2: me as a songwriter. But but yeah, when it comes
- 2:33:53Speaker 2: to writing, for me, it did take a little bit
- 2:33:55Speaker 2: of time to kind of like shift the narrative and think, Okay,
- 2:33:58Speaker 2: I'm not writing for a band, I'm not writing for FGL.
- 2:34:01Speaker 2: This is a whole nother thing. So what do I
- 2:34:03Speaker 2: want to What do I want this to be? Like?
- 2:34:05Speaker 1: How do I get to know this artist and bring
- 2:34:07Speaker 1: out what they're wanting to say?
- 2:34:09Speaker 2: Yeah? Bro, I sit in a room and just start
- 2:34:10Speaker 2: asking questions for a little while before we even get
- 2:34:13Speaker 2: going right, and I'm just like, all right, Like what's next?
- 2:34:15Speaker 2: Where do you want to go? What kind of song
- 2:34:17Speaker 2: do you want to?
- 2:34:18Speaker 1: You know?
- 2:34:18Speaker 6: Do?
- 2:34:19Speaker 1: What do you need? You know?
- 2:34:21Speaker 2: When are you recording next? What's your projects sound like?
- 2:34:23Speaker 1: You know?
- 2:34:24Speaker 2: Just because if you're writing, if you don't set the intention,
- 2:34:27Speaker 2: then you can write a great song and it can
- 2:34:28Speaker 2: be like a great song that completely doesn't fit what
- 2:34:30Speaker 2: they're doing. So sometimes it's important.
- 2:34:33Speaker 3: But we're some of those guys that to write with
- 2:34:35Speaker 3: the most. Yeah, yeah, you know a lot of those
- 2:34:39Speaker 3: guys know who his favorites were, not favorites.
- 2:34:42Speaker 1: I'm sure he loves them all, But couple collaborations, man,
- 2:34:49Speaker 1: there's some good ones.
- 2:34:49Speaker 2: Dude. Chase McGill comes to the top of mine. He's
- 2:34:52Speaker 2: a buddy of mine. That's just super talented. My producer
- 2:34:56Speaker 2: Jordan Smith. He's a lot of fun to write with.
- 2:34:58Speaker 2: I've been writing with him for years and he's just
- 2:35:00Speaker 2: become quite the song smith. Michael Hardy Sorry Hardy, Yeah
- 2:35:06Speaker 2: he is. He is one of the best. In my opinions.
- 2:35:10Speaker 2: We've been writing for a long time.
- 2:35:11Speaker 3: It was the first day I heard his first name too, Michael.
- 2:35:16Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I got it.
- 2:35:17Speaker 2: That's when uh snow, he's an Ernest. He's a sick
- 2:35:22Speaker 2: He's a sick writer.
- 2:35:23Speaker 1: I knew that one. That's an OG throwback, right.
- 2:35:26Speaker 2: Uh, there's a lot, bro. I mean, there's some legends,
- 2:35:29Speaker 2: Rodney Clawson's and you know, Craig Wiseman, people that believed
- 2:35:32Speaker 2: in me coming up. I still love writing with them
- 2:35:34Speaker 2: and look up to them a ton. But like I said,
- 2:35:36Speaker 2: there's this town is so full of great writers, dude,
- 2:35:39Speaker 2: it's crazy. Josh Miller comes to mind. He's one of
- 2:35:42Speaker 2: the greatst Casey Brown producer writer that I love. So
- 2:35:46Speaker 2: we're gonna keep going.
- 2:35:47Speaker 3: So nobody them all.
- 2:35:50Speaker 2: Thanks.
- 2:35:50Speaker 3: We don't forget anybody. Ernest dude, he seems like, I mean,
- 2:35:53Speaker 3: that's the one that comes to mind for me always as.
- 2:35:55Speaker 2: Far as song would be a lot of fun in
- 2:35:58Speaker 2: the room with They can both do anything. They can
- 2:36:00Speaker 2: do rap, rock, country, really well, you know, really well, yeah,
- 2:36:04Speaker 2: Emo album, it's so good. But I'm like, bro, you
- 2:36:08Speaker 2: don't even know, right, I got a phone full of
- 2:36:11Speaker 2: songs that y'all ain't never heard. They are gonna blow
- 2:36:13Speaker 2: your mind that this is Ernest right, he sounds.
- 2:36:15Speaker 1: Like that, you know.
- 2:36:16Speaker 3: I mean he's been on me about releasing that Emo.
- 2:36:19Speaker 3: Know that podcast we did in super Bowl with him?
- 2:36:21Speaker 1: Oh? I know he he hit the chat recently, did he?
- 2:36:24Speaker 1: I think we got a reason to have him back
- 2:36:26Speaker 1: on too?
- 2:36:27Speaker 3: Oh do we? Yeah album?
- 2:36:30Speaker 1: No?
- 2:36:30Speaker 3: O ye yeah, not for the tyler you know, no, no, we.
- 2:36:34Speaker 1: Can't in front of time. Just don't want to give
- 2:36:36Speaker 1: the fans the people.
- 2:36:36Speaker 3: You're right, You're right, it's something we can cut, It's right. Yeah.
- 2:36:39Speaker 3: But the Ernest, that dude, this the shitty pulls out
- 2:36:41Speaker 3: of his ass right nowhere. To me, is like so
- 2:36:44Speaker 3: impressive and the the uh like the fear, like you know,
- 2:36:48Speaker 3: it's like singing in front of somebody just on a whim.
- 2:36:52Speaker 3: It's kind of like nerve wracking. Even I don't sing,
- 2:36:54Speaker 3: but I'll do it, but I get nervous and ernest
- 2:36:56Speaker 3: will just kind of just start singing for no reason.
- 2:36:58Speaker 3: Sometimes out of nowhere. You're kind of just like, you know,
- 2:37:02Speaker 3: and I was just like like, oh, okay, I guess
- 2:37:03Speaker 3: we're in it. You'll seem like, not ten seconds he'll
- 2:37:06Speaker 3: sing tun and a the whole slide right, the whole song. Yeah,
- 2:37:09Speaker 3: like we we enjoyed ourselves.
- 2:37:12Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, he's a He's a beast, bro he really.
- 2:37:14Speaker 2: It's been fun watching him come into his own and
- 2:37:17Speaker 2: you know, do his thing.
- 2:37:18Speaker 3: He's got an album coming out similar time as you too,
- 2:37:20Speaker 3: is he? Yeah?
- 2:37:20Speaker 2: Great, I believe nobody's gonna I.
- 2:37:22Speaker 3: Guess I should have said, I don't know. He got
- 2:37:28Speaker 3: like twenty six songs on that thing.
- 2:37:30Speaker 1: When does When's your new album come out?
- 2:37:32Speaker 2: April twelfth?
- 2:37:33Speaker 1: April twelfth, Let's fucking Garnes comes.
- 2:37:35Speaker 2: Out April eleven around the corner, right.
- 2:37:37Speaker 3: He's like cock clock right, you don't know what it is.
- 2:37:40Speaker 3: I know it's a summertime, but April twelfth, is anybody
- 2:37:43Speaker 3: else on the albums? Are just you?
- 2:37:45Speaker 5: Just me?
- 2:37:45Speaker 2: Man like collaborations? Yeah, but I'm about ready. I need
- 2:37:49Speaker 2: to dive back into the collab world. I've been pretty
- 2:37:51Speaker 2: intentional about I said no to a lot just because
- 2:37:54Speaker 2: I'm really not time. I still need to like basically
- 2:37:57Speaker 2: get my own two feet playing it in the ground,
- 2:37:59Speaker 2: and then we can get back to making some music.
- 2:38:02Speaker 3: How do you sift through that in your mind of
- 2:38:04Speaker 3: like doing a collaboration, Like if a guy like you know,
- 2:38:07Speaker 3: Hardy or Jelly or these other guys that you know
- 2:38:10Speaker 3: I have had the solo act for a little bit, Yeah,
- 2:38:12Speaker 3: that would help you get there faster.
- 2:38:14Speaker 2: I think it's all about the song. I think the
- 2:38:16Speaker 2: song's got to be great first and foremost, and then
- 2:38:18Speaker 2: it's got to be about the timing and then and
- 2:38:22Speaker 2: then they got to have a good team or I'm
- 2:38:24Speaker 2: not really interested because I've been there and done that.
- 2:38:27Speaker 2: And if you don't have a good team, or you
- 2:38:28Speaker 2: don't have an artist where the strategy lines up timing wise,
- 2:38:31Speaker 2: it can be difficult, you know. So, uh so those
- 2:38:35Speaker 2: three things have to check off, check off the list,
- 2:38:37Speaker 2: and then uh and then Yeah, to me, it's mainly
- 2:38:40Speaker 2: about the song. Though it's gotta be a it's gotta
- 2:38:41Speaker 2: be a killer song, a banger, ye man. But Hardy's
- 2:38:45Speaker 2: got a bunch of them. He's somebody i'd collaborate with.
- 2:38:47Speaker 2: I mean, all those guys i'd work with, it's just
- 2:38:49Speaker 2: got to be the right time, right.
- 2:38:51Speaker 3: So how do you say, how do you politely say
- 2:38:52Speaker 3: no to somebody that you know?
- 2:38:53Speaker 2: I'm pretty direct at that point. Yeah, I'm just like, hey,
- 2:38:56Speaker 2: for me right now, I hope you understand. But but
- 2:39:00Speaker 2: but I'm being intentional about doing no collaborations. I've said
- 2:39:02Speaker 2: no to a bunch of people, and unfortunately, like right now,
- 2:39:06Speaker 2: timing wise is and this is something I can do,
- 2:39:08Speaker 2: you know, yeah, done, most people understand. I mean, you know,
- 2:39:11Speaker 2: there's been no hard feelings.
- 2:39:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess I get shot down all the time.
- 2:39:14Speaker 2: But yeah, I hear know all the time too, So
- 2:39:16Speaker 2: trust me, I'm pitching songs left and right. If you
- 2:39:18Speaker 2: ain'table here and know, then you ain't gonna make it
- 2:39:20Speaker 2: in the music business. Right.
- 2:39:22Speaker 1: It's a good point. Yeah, dude, I do gotta say
- 2:39:24Speaker 1: I'm excited to listen to your new album, especially like
- 2:39:26Speaker 1: sitting with you and listening to you talk through all
- 2:39:28Speaker 1: this stuff. Really appreciative of you're being.
- 2:39:29Speaker 3: Open about it all or you can tell you've went
- 2:39:32Speaker 3: on kind of the journey with it all.
- 2:39:34Speaker 1: Yeah, just touching on a lot of like like the
- 2:39:36Speaker 1: therapy words of talking through it, like we we've sat
- 2:39:39Speaker 1: and we've sat with therapists and stuff like, not like
- 2:39:41Speaker 1: me and him together. Maybe we should mayors canceling TIS too,

- 2:40:37Speaker 2: three months, and uh, I'm about two and a half
- 2:40:39Speaker 2: months in, so I'm feeling good.

- 2:40:56Speaker 2: then after the workout it like hits me again. I'm like, oh,
- 2:41:00Speaker 2: I could just go, oh I'm dead. Yeah, it's fun.
- 2:41:03Speaker 2: And to be honest, like that's the time I had
- 2:41:05Speaker 2: to pick to like be consistent because my schedule is
- 2:41:07Speaker 2: so all over the place, kids waking up at six
- 2:41:10Speaker 2: thirty and getting ready to you knowing, it's just there
- 2:41:13Speaker 2: was not really a window that I could be consistent with.
- 2:41:15Speaker 2: So I'm like, you know what, We're just gonna do it.
- 2:41:17Speaker 3: Well, we work at we work out at the same place,
- 2:41:18Speaker 3: and I have to I have to legit be there
- 2:41:20Speaker 3: at six am for me to get with the things
- 2:41:22Speaker 3: I have to get done because my kids were off

- 2:41:30Speaker 3: six thirty.
- 2:41:32Speaker 2: Minute. Yeah.
- 2:41:33Speaker 3: Just you'll know soon when your kid also is.
- 2:41:36Speaker 1: Hat out into your truck for like fifteen thirty extra
- 2:41:39Speaker 1: minutes talking about I saw you're wagging here sitting out
- 2:41:41Speaker 1: there while I was finishing my workout.
- 2:41:42Speaker 3: Because I was at home avoiding for a second. Man,
- 2:41:44Speaker 3: but the one time I show, you know, sometimes I

- 2:41:52Speaker 2: another twenty minutes.

- 2:42:06Speaker 1: partner Hat episodes like the only time to get it done.
- 2:42:09Speaker 2: That's why I was literally like just three months. Then
- 2:42:10Speaker 2: I'll reassess. I'll reassess where my life sat because I'm
- 2:42:13Speaker 2: aut to start tour, which is gonna be I can't
- 2:42:16Speaker 2: get up at four thirty on tour because I can't
- 2:42:18Speaker 2: go to bed at nine o'clock, like I can't at home,
- 2:42:20Speaker 2: you know, I'm saying. So it'll be an adjustment, but
- 2:42:22Speaker 2: we'll keep it rocking.
