  Speaker 1: Let's go.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Yo.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: I'm just a kid from the suburbs. I could have
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: had it all, but my pants were balled when I
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: dropped out of kindas of playing music industry from ALLCP
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: still one in the scene and now on someone now
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: shows at the mask Away. So I'm the celebrate, which
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: I'm getting paid. Still not aliss So the merchant got
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: a job chipin' nayel for the Freshman Drop show.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: Today we've got Jackson from Silly Goose Jackson. I gotta
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: be honest. I was just telling you a second ago
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: that Colin and I are actually big fans of Silly Goose.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: We saw you God Helmet, was it two or two
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: years ago? Now, Colin two years years ago at We
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Saw You at Furnace Fast Jackson, and I still remember
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: that show being one of the more fun shows that
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: I've ever been to at Furness Fast, and Colin and
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: I have ever We've been to all the five Furness
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Fast shows that they've done each year since they came
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: back in twenty twenty one or yeah, twenty twenty one,
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: and so I will say it's just one of the
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: most fun shows, just like just you getting off stage
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: and your stage presence is pretty unparalleled. It is just
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: so much fun. I often wonder how many calories you're burning,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: and it's just it is, it is so much fun.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: You guys are like truly one of those bands where
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: obviously I love like Silly Goose music, but I will
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: say that because of the music and just because of
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: the live shows, you're one of those bands that even
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: if I wasn't like huge into the music, I would
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: want to go to every show anyway.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Right, dude, thank you so much. And it's good to
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: hear that we went over well because that was one
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: of those festivals where we were kind of like, Silly
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Goose doesn't ever fit perfectly on any lineup. We're always
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit of the outlier, but that one in particular,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I never know how we're going to go over when
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: we're playing with like like hardcore bands or like on
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: a hardcore festival. So yeah, that's good to hear that
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: you enjoyed it. Thank you.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, do you feel like this point as a band, like,
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: do you feel like you fit more into the hardcore
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: world rather than like the hip hop world, Like I
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: don't know if you ever really have played shows more
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: of a hip hop scene or not. But I'm curious,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: like if you have, like do you feel like you
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: kind of like do you feel like you're more well
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: received in the hardcore world or hip hop world or
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: like I've always been curious, especially with rap rock, like
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: how how does that go? Like does it feel like
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: you're just kind of your own niche and it only
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: fits in your own niche? Or like are you able
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: to cross over into like hardcore or hip hop? Like
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: how does that?
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Like all we're able, I feel like we're in our
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: own niche, but we're able to like cross over into
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: kind of a little bit of everything. I like part
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of like being the band that never like fits perfectly
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: on any lineup is that, Like I feel like it
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: also gives us the ability, like at the same time,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: we're more compatible with like different types of bands, Like
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: we could play with like all like core bands or
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: bands that are heavier than us, but then we could
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: turn around and like play with like like grunge bands
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: or like bands were worth the heaviest on the bill
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: in terms of hardcore, Like we've never claimed to be
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: like a hardcore band. Sometimes we kind of get lumped
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: in with that and that that's cool like I there's
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: plenty of hardcore bands that I like, but we don't
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: really like claim anything in particular, Like we're just like
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: trying to have fun and like make make music.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: There are the hardcore fans who are like, like, fuck silly,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: like silly Goose isn't real hardcore, like like, uh, the elitists,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: And it's like, dude, I've never I never said we were,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: but yeah, we just we just like to to make
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: music and have fun.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah. The way that I generally will introduce you to
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: friends or acquaintances, uh is I will say it's the
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: thinking man's lip biscuit without descriptions.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: It's the thinking man's limp biscuit.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: I love that, Thank you, And I think that generally works,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: right because I think the reason you guys oftentimes get
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: lumped in with like hardcore is because you have such
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: a hardcore ethos, like such a punk hardcore ethos, that
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: people want to lump you on with that because you know,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: there's not a lot of bands out there that are
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: willing to set up random shows and random neighborhoods and
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: random gas stations and where else. Right, That's that's such
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: a DIY kind of thing to do. Is that kind
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: of your take on it as well?
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure that and thank you by the way,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and and yeah, I definitely agree with you like that
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: that makes sense why we would get kind of lumped
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: in with that that group like for that reason, which
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: like by the way, like once again, like there's plenty
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: of like hardcore bands that I love, so like I
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: don't mind being like associated with that category. But yeah,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: kind of everything that we do is like DIY and
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: like punk rock and going against the grain or like
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: thinking outside the box is kind of like I want
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: to do stuff ourselves and I want to do it different.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: So yeah, the DIY like mentality is very much a
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: part of Silly Goose and like our origin and like
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't ever want to lose that. So
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's cool to see that we come across
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that way.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well I was asking you like a second
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: ago two where it's like, you know, in some ways,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: maybe hardcore, especially like if you went to like a
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: you know, played out like a hardcore kind of festival,
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Like in some ways that feels like a good probably
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: because of the ethos. It feels like a good fit.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: But like you said, in some ways, like I'm sure
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: there's gonna be some hardcore elitists that are like, yeah,
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: you know whatever, They're gonna say whatever bowls right on
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: the inverse like from the hip hop side of things,
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: because obviously there is like you know, obviously this true
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: rap influence that's going on with you all that comes
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: through through in your music. I don't know if you've
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: ever really played in more hip hop kind of scenes
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: at all, but I'm curious, like, how does if you have,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: how does Silly Goose get received in those types of
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: environments if you.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Have, Yeah, so that's a that's a good question to
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: be honest with you. I very much came up in
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: like the rock world, and it's funny because we're from
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Atlanta and Atlanta is like known for hip hop and totally.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: But I very much like we started off playing like
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: like local like hole in the Wall venues or like
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: with other bands, so we haven't done too much in
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: like the hip hop scene. That's always That's actually something
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I want to like venture into like more with some
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: of our like upcoming music. Like I think it would
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: be fun to just do like a a rap EP
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: or or like a or album or just like a
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: project where like I'm just rapping and like something you
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: wouldn't expect, but I don't know like we I would
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: be honest with you, I'd say we haven't played in
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: enough of those spaces for me to give you like
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: an accurate answer to that question.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: It'd be really interesting to just like see how that
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: you know, kind of style of you know, rap rock
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: would really yeah, just like go go.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Over, Well, I'm totally down to do it, like I'm
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I'm very much like I'm down to play with anybody
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: in any genre, and like it's more the bands or
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: like artists that like we play with. It's more about
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: like the vibe of the artist than it is like musically,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: like if if a band or I keep saying band,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: but like in this case, like if a rapper or
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: artist is like there for like if the vibes are
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: good and like the fans are there to have fun,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: then like we're we're down.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like yeah, yeah. Like Colin and I just saw
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: a Turnstile about a month ago and they had one
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: of their opening bands on this tour because I think
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: it was like their headlining tour with with their new album,
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: one of the bands that was playing, or one of
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: the artists I should say that was playing, is a
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: hip hop artist named Jane Remover. I'm not sure if
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: you're familiar with Jane Remover. Oh cool, yeah, but they
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: were like this hip hop artist and I just was
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: like I had never heard of them ever, but like
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: listening to them live, you know, as a sort of
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: opening set for turnstyle, it like made sense why they
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: would run a turnstile, you know, ticket and so yeah,
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: I feel probably the same way with you guys, Like
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: if you guys had like a true like kind of
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: maybe alternative kind of hip hop type of artist, but
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: like a true hip hop artist, not just like a
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: sort of hardcore kind of crossover.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I will tell you, yeah, I don't mean to cut
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: you off. Yes, you made me think of something while
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: we're talking about like hip hop and rap, Joey Valence
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: and Bray is one that I would I want to
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: tour with them so bad. I'm not sure if you're
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: familiar with them, but like they're like blowing up and
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I know they're fans of Silly Goose. I like they
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: follow me and I know like I'll see them, and
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: like Bray was like, dude, like your songs Tsunami rips
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: and I'm like sick, dude, like let's do the tour,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: let's do it. But no, those guys are are super
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: nice and uh yeah in terms of like hip hop
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: like rap artists, Uh, they would be at the top
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: of my list of like who we want to who
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: we want to tour with?
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: You think like the crowds would mix well, Like I
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: think that was what it was cool about, like this Turnstile, Like, uh,
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: you know what Turnstile obviously know what their shows are like,
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: but like the Jane Remover crowd was clearly they were
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: also there to see Turnstile like that. This is the
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: crowds clearly weren't were there was such an overlap there.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: And so total.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and again I don't know this hip hop artist
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: at all, but I'm curious, like, do you feel like
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: the crowds would even like really like yeah, mash well
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: in a way where you like, after all, would be
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: going out all out for each other.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're very much. It's just like an insane party vibe.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I think it would mess super well. Well.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Do you feel like, do you feel like the rap
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: hip hop element kind of gets kind of gets in
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: the way, ever of the I've always wondered this with
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: people who kind of like mix like big two major
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: genres together. Do you ever feel like it gets in
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: the way of the heavier elements?
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Not really, I mean kind of. I that's an interesting question.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I like, so I do like I'll rap, scream, and
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: sing like I'll do all three throughout our music. But
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I will say it's primarily rapping, like that's just kind
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: of what comes to me naturally. So I don't think
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: it really gets in the in the way, Like there
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: hasn't been a situation like I'd say certain beats maybe
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: are more like catered to to rapping, but I don't know,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I haven't encountered that yet. To me, it's just like
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: it's kind of fun to mix the two.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. I love it.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: A question I've always wondered for any rapper really, not
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: just like for rap rock, but really any rapper, is
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: how do you remember every like all those words? It's
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: so many words to remember, Like I I even like
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: i'ld like do like a very simple song that's super repetitive,
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: like on karaoke, and even that feels like that's so
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: many words to just remember. I can't even imagine you
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: guys are doing in hip hop, like that's you guys
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: are writing like a whole book in a three minute
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: like song. It's crazy.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: It's funny you asked that, because when I was a kid,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: like before I started doing any of this, I used
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: to wonder that same thing, like because I'd have trouble
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: like singing along in the car, like remembering it's so
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: many words to a song, so nuch. I've definitely wondered
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: that myself before. And I don't know, I think you
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: just do it a million times. I'm definitely not like
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: actively thinking about every single word I'm saying. It's just
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: like your brain remembers it, and I'll be like analyzing
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: what's going on in the crowd, or like I'm constantly
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: like analyzing people in the crowd, or like how can
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: I get this person to go crazier? Or like uh,
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: or like knowing me probably like overthinking something sometimes like
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: oh no, that guy's on his phone. Like so I'm
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: very rarely like thinking about the words coming out of
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: my mouth. I just kind of have it all like subconsciously,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: just like going that.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: But that like must take a lot of practice, right,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Like to get to a point where you don't even
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: have to think about it. It's just there, Like that
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: must take practice, right, Yeah.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: But I also think when you write the lyrics, like
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: it's different because there are songs I've listened to a
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: million times where I still don't know every single word
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: because like I didn't write the song, so like maybe
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I don't understand, Okay, like, uh, I don't know. You
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: guys will probably know this if you're in a hardcore
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: and like rap rock, but like Etown Concrete, like Mandibles
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: that song by them, I don't ever know what he's
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: saying in the chorus. But and I listened to it,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: like I've listened to it a million times. But I
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: think like if you if you wrote, like if you write,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: if you're the one writing all the lyrics, you kinda like,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just different. It's just easier to
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: remember if you write it.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: It's it's more of a natural thing because it came
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: out of your own head, right, So it's right, it's
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: just there. That makes more sense to me.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, totally, Yeah, that I'd say you you described it
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: or you answered that way better. Than I did. Like,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: that's definitely what it is.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: You know, I've always wondered since seeing you at the
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: at Furnace Fest, you might be the individual in music
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: that stands out most to me so like all of
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: all of the bands I've ever seen, for the person
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: who turns into someone else when they're on stage right else,
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: like you look angry, you look you look excitable, saying
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: insane is a great yeah. Yeah, and I've seen I
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: don't know how many hundreds of shows at this point,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: but like you are one of like the most like calm, gentle,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: like jovial dudes. Thanks, and then you get on stage
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: and you look like you're like like you're out for
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: blood for real.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Definitely when it's me and the guys in
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: the van or like I'm around like uh yeah, one
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: of the events, like we'll definitely be rowdy and crazy.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: But I have been told that before though, like oh wow,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I did not expect that from you, or like like
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: people have said that to me, so uh that's cool though.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I like that because I also I also like don't
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: look like I've also been told I don't look like
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: someone who would be like a musician or like in
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: the rock world, which for me, I kind of like
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: having two different uh like personas.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, I'm I'm wondering what like fraternity at
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: Georgia Tech you're in.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: Oh Man. Yeah, I I didn't go to college, so
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't make it that far.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: You do look like the guy at a at a
• 15:09

• 15:23
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be I'm twenty four years old and I've
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: never had alcohol in my life, so I don't even
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: know the punchline of that joke. Thank you.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: That's why you're all into that hardcore world because you're
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: basically straight edge.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, straight edge. Yeah.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: I don't even know if you're intentionally trying to be
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: straight edge, but yeah, clearly you.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: No, I'm not, I'm not. We we're just like straight edge,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: like or like some not the whole band, but like
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: most of the band, we don't really drink or do
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: drugs or anything. But like it's not like we don't
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: like claim straight edge or like if someone asked me,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: like people have asked me that, and I used to
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: not know what that meant, Like what do you mean
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: like claim it? And then and then I like understood,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: They're like I learned, but no, we don't like claim straightedge.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: We just like don't drink or I don't know.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: So how do you guys get your rocks off.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Going on stage? And there's too much like work to
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: be doing, like the rest of the time that we're
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: not on stage to like be like fucking around with anything.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Like if I'm not on stage, I'm like I'm driving
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: the van, or I'm like at merch or I'm doing
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: a million things, or I'm on like a phone call
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: or in an interview, so like there's not a lot
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: of time for partying.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah, Hell yeah, dude. It's such a you are.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: You should have gone to college and you should have
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: gotten a business degree or a mass communications degree, because
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: you probably would have already been rising up the ranks.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: In some Yeah, it'd already be a millionaire.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah well maybe maybe turned silly goose of that too.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't doubt it to be, I hope. So so well,
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: I tell you what, if your shirts sell as well
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: as as I've seen, you're probably doing all right.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Well I'm still living with my mom, but uh I
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: meaning her rent and and uh no, I love my mom.
• 17:20

• 17:24
  Speaker 1: our bills, we get we get by.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Nice good we Uh. At this last one fest, we
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: had a buddy of ours that was wearing a silly
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: goose shirt and he, I swear to god, was stopped
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: fifty sixty times in in half a day. And people
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: were like, like, they were so into it.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: And you know when you last that just happened. Yeah, yeah,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: oh cool, sweet Yeah.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: So you know when you go to a festival, you
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: try to wear the shirt that you think is like
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: the coolest that's gonna get you, yeah, or like get
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: get other people like noticing you a little bit, right
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: uh uh yeah. He was just soaking up all of
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: the attention the entire week.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Oh hell yeah, it was all sweet. Well, thank you.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm yeah, I'm glad he wore the shirt.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: I think uh, I think we got when we saw you.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: I think we might have gotten a little bit of
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: that dust lung kind of syndrome because you were kicking
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: up Oh yeah, the pit it was. It was a
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: fantastic time.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: I remember that day was a dusty, very dry, dusty day.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Yes it was, Yes, it was. Even though we were
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: by the pond, I thought, I thought, sure you were
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: gonna do something with the pond, just knowing your antics.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: No, I should have, though I should have.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: I was like worried that you would have gone into
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: the pond but with your microphone and gotten like electrocuted,
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: like you know, bringing in like a toaster into the bathtub.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that would have been a crazy plot twist for.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: For I would have, like, if I saw that happening,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: I would have I would have like dough of onto you,
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: like I would have but it, and then it would
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: probably turn into like this whole thing where it's like, oh,
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: I guess we're just all diving on onto the guy.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: But no, we're all driving and you try to be
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: your heros.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Mass electrocusion, yes, hell yeah.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: Hundreds of people die at a silly Goose show, now.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, first, that would have been the first day of
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: the festival. We all die.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Jim Jones of heavy music, that's Jim Jones, right, Yeah. Yeah,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: I didn't bring the flavor aid, but he brought uh,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: he brought everyone into the pond with him.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: Well, let's talk about you guys' live shows, because clearly
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: we're onto that. I will say, I've heard of pop
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: up shows before, but you guys are doing it in
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: a way where it's like it's it's your thing. Like
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I know, I'm sure I would
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: imagine there's other bands that kind of do this and
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: it's their thing, But Silly Goose really is the first
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: band that I'm aware of where like pop up shows
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: are or thing like that's that's what you guys are
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: really at this point known for.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: It's not just thething like that.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: It's right like you guys are you guys are just
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: showing up somewhere, uh, you know, a sight unseen and
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: then boom, there's a show going on. Like what what
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: inspired that? Like how did you make that happen? Like
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: I want to know the whole story around that, and
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: then obviously we'll want to talk about the whole Chicago incident.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so it all it all started like before, really
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: before Silly Goose was even a band. Me and our
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: drummer Allen were like in another band in high school
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: and I'm telling you and like in Silly Goose too,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: but like I've played so many shows to like me
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: the sound guy and like one person in the room,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: like so many local shows just to nobody, and I
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: was just like, fuck this, Like I'm literally playing it
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: on an empty like an empty room right now, and
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: you like you play a few of those, and I'm like,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: what can we do to like that other bands aren't
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: doing early? What can we do to reach people because
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: right now, like this sucks. So that's kind of how
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: my idea was born of, like let's pull up on
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: a trailer outside of like other shows that are happening.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: And so we did that. We started doing that all
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: around like different shows, different venues in Atlanta, and then
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: what a what are like the biggest shows that you
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: did that, Like, like were you doing that in front
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: of like I don't know, like imagine dragons or what. Yeah,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I don't think we'd go over very well at that one. No,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: I mean we did it outside of like some shows
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: at like State Farm Arena, which is like the big
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: arena in Atlanta. But it worked. I found it works
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: best at like two thousand to three thousand cap rooms
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: or like maybe around two thousand cap rooms, but not
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: not amphitheaters because amphitheaters and larger, they have like a
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: whole like there's like police presence already and their security everywhere.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: But if you're if you're at like a really big club,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: there's not any cops there or security outside. Uh for
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: the most part, there's exceptions. So that and like also, yeah,
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: there was a whole like science to it because when
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: we played amphitheaters, certain roads are blocked off and it's
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: harder to get in the right spot. So but yeah,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: we've played outside of like every show ever. Uh. But
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: the we yeah, we did it around Atlanta a lot,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: and it got to the point where we did it
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: outside of like every single venue so many times, to
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: where I felt like every cop in Atlanta like knew us,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: like I had already had like like me going to jail,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: like which we'll get to in a minute. Like that's
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: not like like it's the first time I went to jail,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: but it's not the first time I've like gone to
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: court or anything. Like we just didn't no one fucking
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: knew who we were then, So yeah, I had to
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: go to court in Atlanta one time when we first started,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: and then we were like all right, well, uh, we
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: can't keep doing this in Atlanta because like I'm gonna
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: go to jail. So then we started like following bands
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: on tour and playing outside like of like a band
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: on tour, and we like toured toured. We we didn't
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: have a van either, so we had like my Toyota
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Tacoma and like a trailer, and then two of us
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: would sleep in the Tacoma at night, and then like
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: three people would sleep in the trailer and we went
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: like back and forth like east coast west coast, like
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: for three months straight. We we did that and slept
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: in my truck. So talk about paying dues, silly Goose
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: is fucking paid our dues and we continue to pay them.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: That's how it all started. And then by that point, sorry,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: I'm giving you like the full, really long answer.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: So we won.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah we did. We did all that, And then if
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I could go back and do it again, I'd skip
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of that and just go like play outside
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: of festivals. Once we started playing outside of festivals, like
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: it was like that. That was like the big thing
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: is the first time our first big break as a
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: band was we played outside of the festival in Ohio
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: and Danny Wimmer, the guy who owns the festival, like
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: came out and like like added us to the festival
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: the next day, and then now we're on his other festivals.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: That was like the first really big break for our band,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: and like we were the talk of the weekend. So yeah,
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: it kind of started playing outside of shows and then
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: following bands on tour and then doing playing outside festivals.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: And it's funny because we started that way. I feel
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: like a lot of bands when they start, they get
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: a very they they start getting very small touring opportunities,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: and then they get bigger touring opportunities and then they
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: get the festivals. But like we got the festivals first
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: and then like now we get tours because of the
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: way we did things, like we got the festivals first.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: But yeah, over the past, so that's like kind of
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: the history of how it all started or how we
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: became known as a band. And and we had like we
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: had some viral videos at the same time as all that,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: because like we would upload the crazy places we would
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: play and then like sometimes it would go viral on
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: the internet. So that's how like everyone came to know us.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: And then the past year, year and a half has
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: just been like doing as many real tours as we
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: can and just like focusing on just making the best
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: music we can so that people know us for like hey,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: like you guys are the band with the song bad Behavior,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: or like I love that song rather than like yeah,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: like I and either way it's cool. I'm just happy
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: people know us. But it is cooler like when like
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: people like or like, yeah, you have this song and
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: it left this impact on me. But so we started
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: like pulling back on like the DIY or like not DIY,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: but like the pop up shows in random places, but
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: we still like to do it every now and then.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: And then this this is where we get to more recently,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: we played outside of Lollapalooza in Chicago, and then I
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: think the most of the internet saw I went to jail.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: I finally I had it coming and it finally happened.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: So so yeah, that's kind of the whole pop up story.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: So where did where did you? Did you? Did you
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: pop up a lot La plus because that's a very
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: busy area right in the heart of Chicago.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: There we popped up at the BP two blocks away,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: three blocks away. I think I even know. I think
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: it's Ida Wells Drive in Chicago. Maybe I'm wrong. So
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: we set up at the BP like two blocks three
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: blocks away from the main entrance. And we had actually
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: done the same thing last year, and we had like
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: an agreement with the dude who owned the gas station
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: or the manager or whatever. The previous year. We had
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: given him like one hundred two hundred bucks each night
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: and he'd let us play. He'd let us play there,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: and it was fine, like there was know, there was
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: no problem. And then we had like a video go
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: viral like that year the first year where we yeah,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: we were playing there, and then it got like five
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: million views, like we're on top of the van and
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: the whole gas station's like jumping. So that was twenty
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: twenty four. And then as a result of like that
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: and then like our booking agents like like pestering their
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: team and everything, we were able to get like we
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: played like actually played Lollapalooza this year twenty twenty five.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: We played on Thursday, like the first day, and the
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: set was dope. Lala was great, like we had a
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: great time at the festival, and then we were pretty
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: much like like fuck it, like let's go play at
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: the gas station again because why not. And sure enough,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: like we we did that several nights. I think it
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: was Friday or Saturday night that I got arrested. Yeah,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: I think it was Saturday night. We were playing there,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: and it was the same agreement with the dude, where
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: like he said we could play there. I gave him
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: like one hundred or two hundred bucks and it was
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: all good. But what happened was the somebody called the police.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: The police showed up, and he didn't want to get
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: in trouble with the city, so he pretty much told
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the police that he had already asked us to leave,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: which isn't true. Uh, And if you got the footage
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: from the gas station, you see him and I like
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: talking and like everything is chill. So yeah, pretty much,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: I guess he told them that and that he had
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: already asked us to leave. So then I get off
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the van, and this is where you can see in
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: that that video. I get off the van, and as
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: soon as I get off the van, I'm just like
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: put in handcuffs with no explanation, and they're like, you're
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: under arrest. And then I went to jail that night.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Did I kept asking for water? Because we had been
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: playing on top of the van for like an hour,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: like and I had no one. So I was so
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: sweaty and like I draded and then I yet I
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: didn't get water for fucking like three hours. But they
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: brought me to jail and then I was there for
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: a while.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Like you want water, like water boarding? You want to
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: get water boarded, I'm.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Saying I want water, like to drink. Yeah, But then
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: I got out at like four thirty in the morning,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: five in the morning with no like I didn't have
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: my phone because all my phone, my wallet and everything
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: were in the van, and like I wasn't the band was.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: So I got off the van and then like they
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: arrested me and then they're like okay, cool, Like they
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: didn't arrest or fuck with like anybody else in the band.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Like they're like, all right, well they're good, we got
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: the main guy. But so I didn't have my phone
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: or anything. So I got out at like four thirty
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: in the morning in like downtown Chicago with no way
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: to like contact the band, and I don't have anyone's
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: phone number memorized. It's just all in my phone. Yeah.
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: Wait, so how did you how?
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Wait, how do you you get in touch with them?
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Then? What? My girlfriend came and picked me up, so
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: she had her feeling she was with us, and uh,
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: she like she was back with them at the hotel
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: and like she had a feeling that I needed to
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: get that maybe I was out and she just showed
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: up and yeah, it was pretty crazy. Actually, wait, do
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: you haven't heard of that?
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Or do you have her phone memorized? Her phone number? Dude,
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: you got to get that phone. If there's any phone
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: number to memorize, it's that one man.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I have right now and my dad's phone number.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: Have girlfriends gotta get memorized, like tonight, that's what you
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: got to do to that tonight. Tonight, that's what you
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: got to do.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: If you can remember all those lyrics, you can remember
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: her phone number.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I can remember. I can remember all our lyrics,
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: but I still like forget my social Security number.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: So so yeah, that's a typical twenty four year old,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: I tell you. Yeah. So so what uh did you
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: get charged just with with like a fine as well?
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Then I got trust pass, a criminal trust pass because
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: the guy like had asked us to leave already and
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I was truspassing, So it wasn't like a sound or
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: like noise ordinance thing at all. It was just like
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: its just some like bullshit thing. And then I had
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: to appear in court and like I got a lawyer
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: and everything, because like I didn't think it was that
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: big of a deal, like but my team or like
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: our team behind the scenes, was like, oh, man, like
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: we're not gonna be able to go to Europe, Like
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: we're not gonna be able to go to these other countries.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Like this is a big deal, Like we need to
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: get a lawyer. So that's why, like on social media,
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: I was like yeah, like I'm trying to get money
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: together to get a lawyer, like because I had all
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: these people telling me that like this was a big problem.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: And sure enough, I showed up in court with the
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: lawyer and I was out of there in like twenty minutes.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Like the guy from the gas station didn't show up,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: and they were like okay, like we're throwing this case
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: out and.
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: Maybe he got his two hundred bucks. Wait say that again,
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah he got his two hundred bucks, Like what Like yeah,
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: it's like silly that. It's like, dude, he got your
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: two hundred bucks, Like why why you're like, yeah, just
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Fair, to be fair, I paid him all the other nights,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: but we we would settle at the end of the night.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: So that night he never got his two hundred dollars.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: So but I'm fun out. I'm not giving it to him.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not giving it to him.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Think about how many snacks and drinks he sold.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: No, I know he liked he had a line out
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: the door for the for the gas station.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he just didn't want to get in trouble. But
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: he was all right, he's cool. I get why he
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: did what he did.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm sure Mason and I would have done
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: the exact same thing.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, get arrested or or by We would have sold
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: you down the river, thrown me under the bus. Oh
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: for sure, dude, your name's Jackson. I'm gonna sell anybody
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: down that room. Yeah, throw anybody under a bus named Jackson.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: You can for sure. The Jackson's are no good.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Oh of course, not, especially that Andrew one. He's the worst, the.
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: Worst, absolutely the worst. Uh So, do you feel like
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: this will deter your pop up shows? Like, is this
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: a situation that's gonna affect the way you do this,
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: like I'm curious question.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: If you had asked that a week or two after,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: I probably would have been like, yeah, like fucked it,
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Like I'm done with this, Like we're not doing this,
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: but I do get the itch every now, and it's
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: it's a double edged store because it's like it's like,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: do I just want this to be our whole identity
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: and like the vast majority of people just know us
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: as that. No, But also like every time we do it,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: it goes viral and then as a result, more people
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: go and listen to the music and are like, oh shit,
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: this band actually rips. So I don't know. Whenever I
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: think I'm gonna get away from it, I get pulled
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: back into it. Like I start thinking, like, man, like
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: that video had like five million views and we got
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: a ton of listeners or like so never say never,
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: but we're definitely we're pulling back on it a little bit.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Do you feel like you have to be more highly
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: strategic about it?
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's really only worth it to like do it
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: outside of festivals festival if you can get a good,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: good spot outside of festival. And then like because we
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: were doing it, like because we want to make fans
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: and like we have fun playing music, but also like
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: the T shirt sales at the BP were fucking insane,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: like you would not believe how good it was. So
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: I just got distracted by that, and I what was
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: your question? Sorry, ask your questions?
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: Just like it must be something where it's like you
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: just have to be highly strategic about if you're going
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: to scale back on it, but you don't want to
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: like give it up entire then it probably means that
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: like you want to just be really mindful, like if
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: we're gonna do it, it's gonna have to be something
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: that actually is gonna make sense for the band, that's
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: gonna actually grow the band exactly.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that that I guess that's why I got
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: onto that is like festivals make sense because there's the
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: largest number of people there and then like we can
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: make a little bit of money and like reach new people.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I do feel like the we're past the
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: point or like you're not gonna see us like pull up.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Watch I'm gonna like say this and then like we'll
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: do it, but uh, you're not gonna see us like
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: pull up outside of random shows anymore. But like if
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: there's a big festival going on, you might you might
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: see silly goose.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah. So yeah, So would you wait until the
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: festival is over or would you do it during when
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: the festival is going on?
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: If the festival let out at like eleven PM, we'd
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: probably start at like nine point thirty. And what we
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: would do is like because so many people are already leaving,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: because there's thousands of people and there's people trying to
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: beat traffic. So we play like four or five songs
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: and then we'd get a crowd going. We had someone
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: selling T shirts while we were playing, and then we'd
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: take a break after four or five songs, and then
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: we do the same thing again and then get a
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: whole new crowd and then do it like like probably
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: six times in the night. Uh, and then like play
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: like six different sets like back to back.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: That's insane.
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys do you guys feel like it's like
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: almost this like elevated version of those like guys outside
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: of a like a sports show or like a sports venue,
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: they're like beating on those drums, yeah, and they're just
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: like looking for somebody, you know, like you just like
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: you drop the you drop the like cash in there,
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: like guitar bag or whatever. By the way, I feel
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: like an elevated form of that I've done that.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: I've done that when I was a kid. I started
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: off as a drummer.
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: And are you justin Bieber.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I lived. I lived in New Jersey briefly, as
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: I've lived in Georgia my whole life. But I lived
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: by the beach in New Jersey for like eighth grade
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: and fresh year before I had like a band or anything.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Is when I moved back to Georgia that I like,
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: like was like, I want to start a band where
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: we play out in the street. But I also kind
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: of had that initial idea because I had played drums
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: by the boardwalk. And if you like do like deep
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: digging on the internet, you might be able to find it.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: But I've had a couple of people like send send
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: me pictures of me, like as a little kid playing drums.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: But I just thought that was funny that you asked that.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: But to answer your question, yes, it's very much an
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: elevated version of like when I'm like on top of
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: the van and there's a thousand people at a gas
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: station for a show that like didn't fucking that doesn't
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: exist or that isn't supposed to be happening, and twenty
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: minutes ago there was no one at the gas station.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: It's insane. It's like a crazy high. And also I've
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: like not been looking forward to going to jail, but
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: I'm always known like it was coming, Like I knew
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: one day it was going to happen. So I had
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: like rehearsed in my head, like Okay, when I get
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: put in handcuffs, like I have to look like like,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: oh there's no problem, like what's up, what's like like
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: kind of upset. So in the video I look I
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: look all tough, and I had mentally like because I
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: had like mentally prepared myself for it.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: That is amazing, because.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Uh, there's another time, like my first interactions with the police,
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: where like when we were playing like street shows in
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: Atlanta a long time ago, and like the first couple
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: of times I was like scared, like I'd been putt
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: in handcuffs before, and then yeah, but after you play
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: like a million shows in the street, You're like, Okay,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: this is this is what the cops do. Like I
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: was used to the police at that point. Sure, So yeah,
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: is it is it always? Is? It always?
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: Trust. Is the issue truspassing or is it a noise
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: complaint or is it both?
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: It's it's whatever they want it to be. It's never really,
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: it's rarely truspassing. That was like a unique situation because
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: of our like we were all on the gas stations
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: like property and like our agreement with them. But usually
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: we're like like in the past and we had done it,
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: we were like out in the street or like somewhere
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: that is like public property. So it's usually just like
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: annoy like hey, it's either like your blocking traffic or
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: this is too loud. Those are like the two things
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: they would get us with. And it was just like
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: they'd yell at us and give us a hard time
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: and then like we'd leave, and that's all. It's a bid.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: You know what I think you have to do. I
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: think you have to keep doing it until you get
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: a inciting a riot charge.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm.
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: All you need do is like now they won't be
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: able to go to Europe if that's the case, that's right,
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: that's the one thing you can't do. If you want
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: to go to.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Your street, cred immediately goes like through the roof. But
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: what you should do. You should go to like a
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles game right after after they win like the
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: NFC championship or something like that, and like then do
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: it there.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Because that's the city where they always destroy the whole city.
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: They have to lube up those poles.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: No, but okay, that's we have too much money and
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: equipment to like they'd like destroy the.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Van or ye worth it, it'd be worth it.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: No, I'm trying to like get home and sleep in
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: my own bed. Is like after I get off after
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: the show's over all, the rock star ship goes away,
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, okay, like let's sell these T shirts
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: and then let's go to sleep.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: It's pretty much VI that makes total sense.
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: He's got to take his his nighttime tea. Yeah, because
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: he doesn't drink, so he's got to take that nighttime tea.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about the the the new album before we
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: uh d this. Uh but yeah, new album it's already out,
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: just been out for like a week and a half now.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: I think, uh yeah, what what's that been like for
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: you guys?
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Like what I'm always curious this for for any
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: band that releases nick new music. But like is there
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: like are there new things that you're trying to explore
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: with this new album? But yeah, like what what is
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: it about this new album that like you're excited about
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: that's giving giving you energy? Like yeah, I'm always curious.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, First of all, like I'm super stoked on it.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: I'm really like just happy with how it came out.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: I feel like everything about it is like there's a
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: lot it's a lot of what we've been doing before,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: but just like bigger and better. I'm really proud of
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: like my execution, like of like screaming and singing, like
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: there's a lot more of that on here, and like
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Ian and Allen like killed the instrumentals, so just like
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: Sonic and like Sonically we got to work with Josh Wilber,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: which is like a like big metal producer, and like
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: we were just super stoked to work with him, and
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: he's he made the mixes sound just like huge. So yeah,
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: I'm really proud of it. And like the reception from everyone,
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: I haven't read. I'm sure this will change, but I
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: haven't read one negative comment yet on the internet, so
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm since the records come out, so I'm super
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: stoked on it, and yeah, the record kind of starts
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: off with like more of like a lighthearted, like party
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: vibe that silly use like might be be known for.
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: And I love just like catchy hooks and just like
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: good time. And then as the record progresses, like once
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: you get to the end of the record, there's kind
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: of a few songs on there that were a little
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: bit different from what we usually do, like playing games
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: or heart Attack, Like I got to take like a
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: bit of an angrier approach or like they're angrier songs,
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: which was kind of fun for me to explore and
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: like kind of a little bit of a different attitude
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: than you'd expect expect from us. But yeah, I just
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: kind of I feel like we tried to do it
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: all and we we did it, and like we achieved
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: everything we wanted to and so far everyone likes it.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: Love it. Yeah, and Mason and I are digging it
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: as well. Thank you big time. I'm curious, where does
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: your uh lyrical inspiration come from? Because it does it
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: does feel like you've you've taken a little bit of
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: a different tone on this one, Like you're saying there
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: is some stuff that's a little bit angrier, a little
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: bit more. I don't want to say like pessimistic, but
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: kind of Yeah, where does that come from for you?
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: You know, when I think about a twenty four year old,
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: I don't necessarily think of uh, someone writing these songs.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: They feel a little bit a little bit different than someone.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think as I get older and I have
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: different life experiences, there's different things to talk about, and obviously, like, like,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: like I was saying, like the songs in the beginning
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: of the record, like Cowboy and the Great Dyno Escape,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: those are just me trying to like make myself fucking
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: laugh with like me, me and my friends in a
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: room writing the most ridiculous lyrics I can and just
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: like what is the craziest thing I can think of?
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: And those songs are like so fun for me because
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: of that reason. But yeah, as I get older and
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: like different life experiences, I don't know, I guess heart
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Attack and like, uh, it's really just like I'm just
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: pissed off with the world in that song and like
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: feeling like I have to cater to someone and then
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: like give me my money is another one where I'm
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: really just like I guess starting to feel feel jaded,
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: like I. I know, I've learned how the game works,
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: and like like oh shit, I'm always going to be
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: broke or like like when do I when can I
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: like actually like afford to like help my family or
• 44:29

• 44:52
  Speaker 2: of us doesn't matter what age we are, we have
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: kind of those same experiences that that it's important. It's
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: a important to hear that, especially from a band that
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily has at least in the past. R you
• 45:06

  Speaker 3: have put out, but yeah, like from a lyrical standpoint
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: to the instrumental standpoint, like that just it feels like
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: it's a natural progression of like you all are growing
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: in your craft, in each one of your crafts, like
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: from a guitar standpoint, bass, drums, vocalists, like just all,

• 45:47
  Speaker 3: just see as a band. You know, when you're a
• 45:50

  Speaker 1: to see I don't know, We've got some some music
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: we're working on for like the next album, and I
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: don't know what direction because I don't I don't ever
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: want to do the same thing twice. So yeah, we're
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: gonna I don't even know why I'm bringing this up
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: because it's so far in the future, but I guess
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: it's what's on my mind right now is like what
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: are we gonna do next? But yeah, I'm glad. I'm

  Speaker 1: I appreciate y'all saying that.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah, hell yeah. All right, Well should we talk
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: about your most influential albums?
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I forgot about that. So my most
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: influential albums, I'm gonna say, I mean, it's like a
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: tie between Chocolate Starfish and significant Other, Like there's the
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: obviouslymp biscuit comparison to our music. Probably my most influential
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: album ever is Broke by head Pe and head Pe. Yeah,
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: and I love a liar album. And then.
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: So it's called Broke.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's called Broke.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: Uh okay, okay, two thousand, okay, so a while while ago.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, it's like if Olympus get never got like
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: big and famous, but really it's it's a it's a
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: similar vibe. Yeah, Jared just like fucking kills it on there,
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: like every song on that album, front to back. I'm
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: just like, I love it. But yeah, so that record
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: and then the two Olympus records and then recently and
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: I'm still I'm still on influential. This one is influencing me. Uh,
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: the renaissance by Etown Etown Concrete, that whole record front
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: to back.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know those are I've I've only given you
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: four os. I don't know. I can think now I'm
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: just starting to think of like favorites or like mister
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: Asylum or what's the name of the first Highly Suspect record?
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what is the name of it?
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: I think it's or I don't know if mister Asylum
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: is the title track or the I'm Gonna Fuck it Up.
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: I shouldn't have brought it up, but that record. I love.
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: Their first one, well, their first one is self titled,
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: and then there's mister Asylum.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the one, the first one on the label, the
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: one when they like blew up.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that must have been Yeah, that's mister Asylum.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, good, So I got it right.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: So I was just overthinking that that record has like,
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: uh like impacted me. I guess not too much because
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know the fucking name of it, but like
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: that record is very cool for me, like personally, but
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: we have a very different sound than that band, so
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much of that's actually like, uh
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: like translated into our music, but uh, those would be
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: those would be.
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: My five Yeah, damn, I'm actually I'm I'll be honest,
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: I'm really shocked that there's no hip hop up in
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: this Yeah.
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: I grew up listening to like new metal rap rock,
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: Like you're.
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: Such a good rapper, that it's like it's hard to believe, right,
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: Like you're such a good rapper.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: It was Rage against the Machine first. I fell in
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: love with Rage, and then from there it wins Olymbiscuit
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: and like I do like a lot of rap and
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: hip hop music, but I'm like, I'm not gonna like
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: lie and tell you like I'm super knowledgeable. I just
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: like know like, uh, there'll be yeah, I just know
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: it when I hear it. But I'm definitely more knowledgeable
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: in like the new metal world.
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: Speaking of Rage, I think the uh the very first
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: time that I ever heard of you guys of Silly Goose,
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: I immediately was taken back to the Rage music video
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: where they're there street yeah, Yeah, New York Stock Exchange
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: and they're playing outside of.
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: It and everything.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was like, that is so metal, dude,
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: that is that is the absolute perfect ETHI for that
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: kind of band. And I feel like you guys are
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: kind of taking a similar torch. I I really appreciate that.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate it. Yeah, like like.
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: That's maybe where that idea came from.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: You think no, but uh, it's cool that they did that.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: I I definitely love, like, yeah, I Love Rage, Hell Yeah,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: Killer Killer.
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: Well, that's a great list. Honestly, there's a lot of
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: new metal there that I'm not super familiar with.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: And yeah, you got to go listen and Broke Man,
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: that's like my favorite new metal record ever.
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: Damn, I'm gonna have to I like I as much
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: as like, you know, obviously, there's been this kind of
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: this resurgence of new metal sound, you know, over the
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: last few years, and it's like it's like made me
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: kind of go back to like when new metal was big,
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: and like, look, you know, listen back to a lot
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: of that stuff. But there's a lot of new metal
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: that obviously was more underground, you know, that wasn't like,
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: you know, the Lincoln Park, It wasn't the limb Biscuits
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: of the world. So there's a lot of that stuff
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: that I'm just like very unfamiliar with it. I like
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: need to go back and listen to. And these are
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: some of those artists that clearly I need to go
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: back and listen to, right for sure.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: Did you ever fuck with mud Vein?
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Dude? I love mud Vain. Mud Vein was like one
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: of the first like really or like really heavy bands
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: I started I started listening to Uh because it was
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: when I first got into heavy music. I didn't like
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: as a kid, in like a middle schooler. I was
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: drawn to Rage because I didn't like the screaming yet sure,
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: and so I liked the rap it and just like
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: the heaviness of the guitars. And then from there it
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: morphed in a limp biscuit because it was like same
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: type of thing, but it sounded like bigger and the
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: production was like more fat and there was like a
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: hip hop influence, and Fred screamed like sometimes but not
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: too much. Yeah, and then I got used to the
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: screaming and then I yeah, then the sky was the
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: limit and then I like dig By mud Vein and
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: was like I remember like when I first heard that song,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: I like scared me and then I was like, wait, no,
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: I love this so so yeah.
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: I like, what are your thoughts on early Pod?
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: That's a good question.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: How early.
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: Before like like their earliest stuff.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: First I don't have thought, to be honest, I love Pod,
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: but before Elements of Southtown like Elements in South of
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: Southtown and Satellite are like the two records I'm super
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: well versed in. And then after that, but like the first.
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: I think they had a record and an EP before that.
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not super knowledgeable. Why what are your thoughts?
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're fans, We're big fans.
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: We're big fans. My hot take is that Pod invented
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: new mental.
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: Really because when the first project come out.
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: There, that EP came out before Corn Yeah really yeah yep,
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: what what year ninety three? But months before before Korn's
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: first album came out. So my my argument is that
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: and let unless you want to consider rage new metal,
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: I would argue that po D is the first at
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: least their first music was new metal, and they had
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: they had music that came out before Corn ever released anything.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: Damn.
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean so that's that's my hot take,
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: that's mine.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: I got to go back and listen to it, But
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: that makes sense because like Pod has always been always
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: been new metal.
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: Or like, yeah, it's the beginning.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, dude, that's cool. I like that. I like
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: that hot take.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: That's coming, is it?
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: So all right, well hopefully hopefully I'll convince you too,
• 53:40
  Speaker 3: so you'll you'll have to reach back out to us
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: to see if if you think that's if that's true.
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: But yeah, their first EP came out before Korn Ever released. Now,
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: obviously corn was way more popular than Pod Ever Got,
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: but Corn or POD's first EP came out for sure
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: before before Corn Ever released anything.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, dude, that's got me like excited to go
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: back and listen to it. Now.
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: That's good.
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's dope.
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: Cool. Well, Jackson, what do you want to plug? Obviously,
