  SPEAKER_01: It's really, really good.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but he didn't know for a while that I was an artist because when I'm in content creator mode, I know I am very much like, how can I be of service to you?
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_01: You know.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so I'm not trying to shove it down anyone's throat, but he followed me on Instagram and like months later, I came up on his Explore page um for rose-colored glasses.

  SPEAKER_01: I just have never met, and I know they're out there, but I have never met a another female artist yet, besides Remy, that is like genuinely such a girl's girl.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_01: And like when something good happens for you, they cheer on your jealousy.
• 12:35
  SPEAKER_01: There's you don't feel like they're secretly sitting there being like, wish that were me.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 12:41
  SPEAKER_00: You know, like or judging you or being like, she only did right.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_01: Like she will, she is everybody's gonna be a good one.
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_00: She's a ride or die cheerleader.
• 12:48
  SPEAKER_00: Like she is.
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_00: It's mandatory.
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, everybody needs one.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_00: It makes me sad when like chicks are competitive like that.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_00: Like, what do you do?
• 12:55
  SPEAKER_00: It gives me the ick.
• 12:56
  SPEAKER_00: Their biggest enemy are other women.
• 12:58
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, exactly.
• 12:59
  SPEAKER_00: I know.
• 13:00
  SPEAKER_00: And when you really should be lifting each other up, exactly.
• 13:04
  SPEAKER_00: And we talked about this many times today on the show.
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_00: There's enough room for everybody.
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, there's enough room.
• 13:08
  SPEAKER_00: We're not gonna run out of spots at the top.
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_00: There's plenty of room for every single person.
• 13:13
  SPEAKER_01: Well, because when you behave like that, like standard over the past several years has been there's only so many slots for women in country music.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_01: It's like, well, when we act like the women this year are kicking eggs.
• 13:25
  SPEAKER_01: They are they are the women, congratulations.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_02: Ella Laney to both of you.
• 13:30
  SPEAKER_02: Ella Laney.
• 13:31
  SPEAKER_02: All those people.
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, that's so that choosing Texas song, it makes me cry because it makes me homesick.
• 13:37
  SPEAKER_00: And I think it's just the most beautifully written song.
• 13:41
  SPEAKER_00: She's a superstar.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_00: She's a superstar.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_01: It's taken over.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_00: It's taken over.
• 13:45
  SPEAKER_00: The chicks in country music are running the show now.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_01: I know.
• 13:49
  SPEAKER_00: Does that make you so happy?
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_01: It does make me so happy because it has been, you know, for the past several years, there's only so many slots.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_01: And it's like when women are competing or tearing each other down, like it just feeds into that.
• 14:03
  SPEAKER_01: But it seems like everyone right now is kind of, you know, really supportive of one another.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_00: Because I can't believe that there's humans that exist among us that want to tear other people down.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_01: It's disgusting.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_01: Like, how do you how do you sleep at night?
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_00: You know, like if you're how do you how do you go through life like that where you're not also like how do you have the time?
• 14:24
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_01: Or the energy.
• 14:26
  SPEAKER_01: Like, if you are truly like in this industry and you're trying to darn thing, you should.
• 14:32
  SPEAKER_00: I am not an artist and I have no time.
• 14:35
  SPEAKER_00: And I don't I can't sing a musical note and I have no time.
• 14:38
  SPEAKER_00: Deb, I bet you can.
• 14:39
  SPEAKER_00: I think it's my life mission to get you on a song.
• 14:43
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_00: At the slip watch tomorrow at the CRS, I'll be singing like a crazy woman.
• 14:48
  SPEAKER_00: But um, yeah, I know.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_00: I just think it's so it's so important to have that core group of people that you know would move a mountain for you.
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_00: You know, you're one of those people to me.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_00: You're one of those people.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_00: I'm like, Cope would move a mountain for me.
• 15:02
  SPEAKER_00: I know she would.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_01: I would.
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_00: I know she's the best.
• 15:05
  SPEAKER_00: I would try.
• 15:06
  SPEAKER_00: Real hard.
• 15:06
  SPEAKER_00: Real mouth.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_00: Not what if mountain.
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_00: Screw that mountain.
• 15:10
  SPEAKER_00: Um, Hope and Mitch became my team a year ago in December.
• 15:14
  SPEAKER_00: I had another team um before.
• 15:17
  SPEAKER_00: And we know, I think it's two years now, right?
• 15:20
  SPEAKER_00: The the podcast, happy hour is two years old this month.

  SPEAKER_00: Is it really?
• 15:25
  SPEAKER_00: Happy birthday, happy hour.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, happy birthday, happy hour, right?
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_00: That's a big deal for a podcast because most don't make it to yeah.
• 15:33
  SPEAKER_00: And and what an honor to be sitting amongst the greats, you know.
• 15:36
  SPEAKER_00: Like, I think it's such an honor to have you guys here.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_02: I remember seeing your podcast on my feed for uh like about me last year at CRS, and I was like, I want to be on that.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, thank you.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_00: So it'd be great.
• 15:47
  SPEAKER_00: I've never had anybody everybody.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_00: This is the thing I hear about the show, and this is not only credit to me, this is a credit to Hope and Mitch and their professionalism and and Will and Jared, and um everybody leaves here saying, That was so much fun.
• 16:03
  SPEAKER_00: That was really fun.
• 16:04
  SPEAKER_00: And you know, interviewing is part of your career, right?
• 16:07
  SPEAKER_00: That's part of what you have to do.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_00: But when you can come on a show and feel instantly at home and you, you know, you build reputations.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_00: I think that's the uniqueness about happy hour.
• 16:17
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you know, I mean, you know, we all we had a Sunday family dinner one night.
• 16:22
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, we're like, we gotta gather the family for Sunday family dinner.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_00: But it is true when you start to you start to meet all these people, and then we just had Austin and he ran to you, and you exchanged like you might be collabing with him someday.
• 16:34
  SPEAKER_00: And when you have 11.5 million dollars and you're letting Hope and I on the on your bus.
• 16:38
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, for sure you are, definitely.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and I think that's so beautiful because I know how important your friends are to you.
• 16:44
  SPEAKER_00: Oh my gosh, they're everything, it's everything, right?
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, I have like a I'd say that I'm friendly with a bunch of people, right?
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_01: But I have just like a couple friends right now that are everything to me.
• 16:57
  SPEAKER_01: Like my my producer's one of them, which is super special, and I think you can hear that in the music.
• 17:01
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
• 17:02
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and then my other best friend, Kyle Jacob, and they're both friends with Mitch.
• 17:07
  SPEAKER_01: And so we literally do have every like Sunday we have family dinner, and that's so beautiful.
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_00: Well, you have to maintain some normalcy, yes, right?
• 17:17
  SPEAKER_00: Like definitely, you know, in it you really do, like, and you guys are married, right?

• 17:29
  SPEAKER_00: Um, it is crazy, it is totally crazy.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_00: But I mean, I think it is totally a balance of trying to be normal too, you know.
• 17:36
  SPEAKER_00: I mean it's whatever normal looks like to different people, but it is, and even for me, when you're on the road a lot and you meet a lot of people, like I could sit and tell strangers stories from this podcast all the time because I've had the privilege of hearing these incredible artists tell these stories.
• 17:51
  SPEAKER_00: But I can tell you sometimes it's like okay, it's time to go home.
