• 1:04
  Speaker 1: out soon, don't you. Yeah, man, I have an EP
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: coming out on on Friday. So that's the I don't
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: know what I am lost on dates and days, but yeah,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: whenever this comes out, we don't know.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Yet twenty sixth of June, so that when it is Friday,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: two days now.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Explain this is gonna be a stupid question. Explain to
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: me what EP means, Like, why is that so?
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: EP is?
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Album?
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Is all right? In music back in the day when
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: you were making records, you'd have like forty fives and
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: you'd have like thirty threes and seventy eight's, but they abbreviated,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: uh EP. It means extended play, but for some reason
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: we use it to say a shorter album. So basically
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: EP is usually like a four, five, six song record
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: that you put out and you know, because you know,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: it takes, you know, so much of a marketing push
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: to put out like a full like twelve song album
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: and just it's really expensive to do it. A lot
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: of times newer artists like me put out, you know,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: a four or five song collection just to like get
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: new mus out there. And to like build a brand
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: and to build a fan base. But this one's different
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: because I've put out like three original ones, but this
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: one is like kind of B sides and alternate versions
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: of songs because I when I got to Nashville, I
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: went to college at Belmont, but I started writing songs
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: for other people. So that's been my job here for
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: eight years, nine years now. And then I've along the
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: way gotten a record deal and started like pushing my
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: own music out at the same time. But this EP
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: that comes out on Friday is songs that I've written
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: for other people with my voice on them.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: So songs that So you're saying, you've already written these
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: songs for other people and they've already been put out, Yeah,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and now they're going to be in your voice because
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: you wrote them.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Sure, they're like hits I've written for other people. And
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: then a live version of a song that is on
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: one of my records called Wish for the World is
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: on there. And then it's just all recordings of songs
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I've written for other people.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: So we'll back up to you said nine years ago
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: you started writing in Nashville, So when you're writing songs
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: for other people, and then you start getting your own gigs.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: How are you implementing yourself as you're writing songs for
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: other people and all this is just killer? Are you
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: kind of like a could I sing it?
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Maybe? I don't know. Man, it's so hard to get
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: your song recorded by somebody else that you sort of
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: when it happens, it's just a massive victory. So I
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: look at what I do in Nashville, it's like two
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: different shoes. It's like I got a right foot in
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: the left foot, and I can't really imagine doing one
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: without the other. Because like a lot of people have
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: found out about me as a as an artist because
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: of the songs I've written for other people. And then
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: on the other side of that, a lot of artists
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: that I've toured with and stuff have I've had a
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: lot of opportunities to like write with and for them
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: because they've you know, seen me as an artist and liked,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: like to a tea or something that I've put out
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: like on my own name. So they sort of like
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: feed each other like weirdly like separate businesses, but they
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: are really complimentary.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: So were you was your goal when you were starting
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: to like obviously be a musician a singer where you
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: are now? But when you're writing at first, or is
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: that something that you're just separating the entire time, Like
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you weren't expecting somebody to be like, hey, you seem
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: like you got a nice voice?
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Now? Was the other way around? I wanted to be
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: a writer because I just think it's the coolest job
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: in the world. Man, Oh really, Yeah. I wanted to
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: write songs because when I got here, I was like,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: wait a minute, there's people who just write the songs.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: They don't have to tour, they don't have to And
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I wasn't. I didn't like find my singing voice really
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: until I was like a couple of years into my writing,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: I don't think, because it's mostly like singing is just
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: about style. Yeah, I mean some people can rip. Like
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: my wife is Maren Morris, and she's just like obviously a.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Very yeah, she's like that, she's like the stud.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she can sing. She's got like one of those
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: voices that's like, well that's not normal. That's but for
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: guys like me most I think most people who work
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: in country music, it's like you sort of are more
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: of a stylist than a vocalist. Half the time. So like,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I didn't find that until I had written some songs
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: for other people, and like people started sort of copying
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: my voice on their records. And that's when I started
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: getting looks from like record companies. And I actually said
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: no a couple of times. It's like, man, I just
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: want to this is getting rolling for me. I just
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: want to write stay home. And then so you prefer
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: being the writer. Well then eventually I was like, ah,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I gotta try this. Yeah, I don't know, it's cool, man,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: it's hard. I mean a lot of work being the
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: artist on that. Like it's the artist part is like
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: ninety percent not music, like all.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: This stuff that goes in behind somebody.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: It's not like you're going to go like like I
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: don't know, there's not a whole lot of music that
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: goes on. It's mostly like doing busting with the boys,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: but not that fun. Yeah, that makes sense. You're doing
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: a whole lot of press, and you're doing a whole
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: lot of like just work with radio stations. But it's
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: mostly just like riding on a bus waiting around to play,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: you know. That's what being an artist is, and then
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: doing all the press and all this stuff. Around it.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: But when you're a writer, you're one hundred percent creative
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: all the time. And that's the coolest part about that,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: and that's you know you do. You don't get like
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the glory of it. You know, you don't like have
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: like two thousand people screaming your song back back at
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: you when you're the writer. But you get a lot
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: of respect in town, and you get obviously.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: A lot of respect where it matters the most.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Sure from like those artists and those people in town
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: that really respect it. And there's a whole like songwriting
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: community that's really special. And so I'm really lucky to
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: get to do both things. Man, I get to like
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: still write songs for other people. I've had a really
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: cool year honestly as as a writer, and then had
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: my first ever my song to a t went platinum
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: like a month ago, which is crazy.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Oh let's go, we got platinum? Boys, Yeah, Zach, where
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: you at, Chase? You got to partake in the clapping?
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know, you get I don't know if you
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: get it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: My tour manager Chases here and he's a huge part
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: of everything we do. And but then you know, I
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: don't know, it's been it's just been a cool sort
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: of like this is the balance I've always wanted to
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: strike and I find gotten to do that.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: That's fucking awesome, dude. I know, uh, like from the
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: outside looking in and you talk to people who like Ernest,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: I know he has a lot of respect for writing
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: and people who write, but they were they're not like
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: the voice because when you're I guess uh, ignorant too,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: you just think the artist makes this, like they write it,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: they do all this stuff. And then now that since
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I've moved here and you get to talk with people
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: like yourself, like Ernest, you realize there's so like a
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: lot of those people they just funnel the song and
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: they're just kind of the face to to the song
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: or to the album.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Hey man, you need a vehicle, right, you need a bus?
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know, man, it it's crazy. I know Ernest
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: because we have just started writing together, you know, in
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: the last year, and he's one of the Honestly, there's
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: there's not a lot of people who swing a different hammer.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Like most people you sit down with, you're like, okay,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: we can write a great song. Every it feels like
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: everybody's the same amount of talented, and then you meet
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: people like arn Or, like Michael Hardy or or Maren honestly, honestly,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Maren's best songwriter I've ever ever encountered.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Your wife.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and we started we got we met writing songs,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: so I believe that way before we were actually together.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: But but like there's those dudes that you meet like
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: like arn Or, like Hardy or you're just like, oh
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: my god, this guy, this guy.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Well they kind of separate.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: I guess they just spit brilliance and you're like, I'm
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: just recording you. Like that's what I did with Ernest
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: when we wrote a Heartless for Diplo and Morgan Wallen,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: and half of that is just like me like with
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: my phone, sticking it in front of Ernest and like
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: just recording it so that we could go back and
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: make sure we had it down like that and that
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, that dude's just a brilliant guy.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: And then you guys are doing that and then you
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: kind of give the product to the voice you want
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: to match.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Man, it's so hard. So we each have called publishers.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: They're like record companies for songwriters. They own or they
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: are partners with you and in you know your copyright.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: But what they do is they like book your calendar.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: So they're like, you know, yesterday I wrote with with
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: Hardy and Monday I wrote with a Buddy Matt and
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Ross Kopperman. But like they book a calendar and then
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: they take the songs and the demos that you make
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: and they pitch them out to artists and labels, and
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: so they're the ones who are supposed to like exploit
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: the music and get it recorded. But like, it's just
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: funny how songs find a way.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: It's like, uh, they're all like undrafted free agents. Yeah,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: but I mean it's like how do you like they
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: just go through each little step and eventually they like
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: a miracle happens. It's like so like oh this sometimes
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I'll send a song to somebody, or I'll write it
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: with the artist. And I wrote a song with Kane
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Brown called Worldwide Beautiful, and that's one that just like
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: was sort of like a magic like magic, you know
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: what I mean. And some days it's magic, but other
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: times it's like the song goes through like this manager
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: and then like they show the artist and the artist
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: holds it and then they record it and then like
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: it's like a series of like ten coin flips all
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: coming up heads in order to have a hit on
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: the radio. And that's like what we're all going for
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: is just to like have those big hits. So but
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: publishers help with those ten coin flips.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Gotcha.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: You're the ones who get like make sure each step
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: is they're trying to get the song heard by whoever
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: can make decisions to record and put them out.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: So gotcha. So that's that's where the importance of like
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: is the publisher kind of the same as the label.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but on the writing side, gotcha, they're Yeah, they're important.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: They're awesome, man, signing with those teams, like when people
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: sign deals and stuff, because sometimes you wonder, like if
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: somebody's very good at music, why would they sign with
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: anybody if they can kind of get it out themselves.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: So that's that's me thinking that not having any idea.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Honestly, it's easy to do that now and it's ever been.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: And a lot of these dudes who are like a
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: lot of these guys who get it moving on their
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: own then partner with a label, like they own a
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: lot of that stuff. It's like most people the label
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: owns a lot of the artists to like do like
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: a joint venture with the label, so like it's kind
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: of swinging back like in favor of the artists now
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: in a cool way because of the way people listen
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: to music now, because of the Internet, because of.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Some more leverages came to the Oh yeah.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, so we're but uh man, it's a cool time
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: to make music, especially in Nashville. Like I everybody feels
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: like everybody wants a piece of what we're doing, and
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: that's that's really cool. I mean, Maren did the Middle
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: with z Diplo made a country record. It feels like
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: every country artist is getting like a pop artist to
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: like feature on their big hits, Like Gabby Barrot just
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: had Charlie Pooth on hers. So it just it feels
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: like Nashville is like in a really great spot as
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: a genre. And you know, you could always have all
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: these people who like love or don't love what's happening
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: on music. Row. I just I'm like a head down guy.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: I just put my head down and keep doing my
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: thing and don't like read too much about like what's
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: country and what's not. But I do love, like I
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: do think that we're in a really cool spot as
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: a genre and as a just as a creative city,
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: because this is the best music town in the world.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Oh bar none, there's not. It's not even close to
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: me as far as like the songwriting community, the proximity
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: that everybody has, and just like the overall talent. I
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: just it's amazing how much great music is made here,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: whether you've whether it is released or not.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like you have much of Like, you know,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: how everybody argues like, oh, this is more country than that,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: and like the old days and the new stuff.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: I'm not Sturgil and I know it, and that's okay
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: with me. And you know, there's going to be those
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: dudes who just want to listen to that stuff and
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: that's great and it's not like a I think that's
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: absolutely country music, obviously probably more traditional country music than
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: what we do. But yeah, you know, that's just so
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: funny the way that the internet works. It's just all
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: these like genre lines have blended so much. And I
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: don't know, I'm not that worried about that conversation.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: I'd love to make like like a really like a
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: much more traditional country record at some point, but I've
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: sort of gone down this lane now where I get
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: to I've sort of created a sound and it's really
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: it's created a fan base and I really have enjoyed
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: that part of it. And it's not super traditional country
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: at all. So I'm just never not going to be that.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to win that one. Yeah, and I
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: know I'm fine with it.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: What do you enjoy doing more writing or touring and
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: kind of doing the whole musician thing.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: I can't. I don't know. Writing is great until you
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: get burnt. And so the fun part about being like
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: doing both is that I very rarely get like burnt
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: out on writing.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Because when you feel like you're starting to get burned it.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: As much as I used to used to be like
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: when you get going, you're writing like five or six
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: songs a week and just you run out of ideas
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: and sort of get feels like work a little bit
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: more like you're trying to force it. Right now, I'm
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: writing like two or three a week, and I feel
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: like I hit the bulls eye a little bit more. Yeah,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: just because of my mind is fresh and I usually
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: have ideas and I'm only writing with people that I love.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying out a whole new bunch of news.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: It's just a cool thing to like feel like I
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: feel like I'm in my prime a little bit. Yeah,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: like as a creative person. And I don't know, it's
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: been cool to uh, it's been cool to like get
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: into that spot. But I miss touring, man, I miss
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: the people the most. I don't miss airplanes, but I
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: miss like my bus. Yeah, we we have a cool crew.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: And miss my boys, and I miss like obviously, like
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: we have a really cool road situation and it's like
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: we have like a mixed bus. We have girls and
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: guys on it. Everybody's working and everybody it's always a
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: really like great mood and we just we did it
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: like my headline tour. Just I mean the last two
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: weeks got canceled because of this ship. But I missed
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: that and I miss I miss electric guitars. Yes, I
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: miss I missed my people though, That's what I miss.
• 15:18

• 15:19
  Speaker 1: road next?
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Or do you know I'm supposed to play Labor Day weekend?
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Chase, what the hell we'll see? Where are we going?
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: Tom? Just Chase is just waiting for the same thing
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I'm waiting on. That's exactly right, waiting for somebody to go.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: You just you just set it up whenever you get
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: the green light, exactly Okay.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Chase is a tour manager. So anything that has
• 15:38

  Speaker 1: or do you guys?
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Actually we do have.

• 17:09
  Speaker 1: He was born in the pandemic.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we were. It was like the first week that
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: they had like shut the hospital down. It was crazy
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: and no visitors, just me and like some people start
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: like other places, not here, but like you were hearing
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: stories about like like Dad's not being able to go
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: because of this stuff. Like I don't know, maybe that happened,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: maybe it didn't, but we were terrified and uh, no visitors,
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: which actually, looking back, like that's okay, Like it was
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: just kind of cool to like be have your moment
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: and then like my parents and her parents came over
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: like when we got home. But yeah, it was. It
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: was terrifying. Man. It's got like doctors wearing like face
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: shields and shit.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: And like, oh my god, this is not knowing how
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: serious it.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Maybe yeah, yeah, that's it. But it's been it's been cool, man,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: different like we've we've been like really, I don't know.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: I feel like when you do what we do, we
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: don't have to ever have to grow up. And and
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: so now it's like we can be we still have
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: that lifestyle you have to there's this one little thing
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: you have to be responsible for it every day. So
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: it's a little bit different, but we're we're figured it out.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: The cool part about not being able to tour is
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: we get to be home for a second, and I
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: would have missed some stuff that I'm glad that I
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: had time at home for, Like I would have missed
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: He's just like little things, man. You like wake up
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: in the morning and you see him and he's like,
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: oh my god, he's bigger. Yeah, And I can't imagine
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: like I would have had to do I think three
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: weekends now away from them, and I can't imagine like
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: coming back after one of those weekends and being like,
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: oh my god, like he grew so now. But now
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: I see him every day and eventually that's not going
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: to be the case. And we're gonna have to go
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: back to life as we need it to be. But
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: but right now it's cool to be home.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Now, say you and your wife, you guys tour together.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Will will the baby like tour with you guys.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So Maren has a bus that is like fitted
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: outfitted for a baby. So it's like we have like
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: our apartment in the back, and then there's like a
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: bunk that has a crib in it and a baby
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: monitor and a noise machine, and then like the we
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: have somebody who like stays next to him and the
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: bunk across from him because we have to have help
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: out there just because there's so much stuff going on.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: And he goes to bed at seven o'clock and rock
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: shows don't start till nine, so we have some help
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: out there. And then yeah, man, there's some other stuff
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: that she got just that's baby specific.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: But yeah, we have a bus that sounds like a
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: bus we need to look into boys, an apartment in
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: the back. Yeah, a baby crib for a tailor. Make
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: sure keep a monitor on him. He can't do anything
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: on his own, you know what I mean.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: That's awesome, Dude's Yeah, my bus is just twelve bunks
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: and we go. We i'd town to town and have
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: a good time. But yeah, no babies on that one yet,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: no dogs or babies.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: It's probably benefits. It's probably a benefit too to touring
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: with your wife's because don't people go on the road
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and they're gone for hell. I don't know how long.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: How long is like an average tour.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: I mean we well in Nashville, it's different because we
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: can do weekends because we're in the middle of the country.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: So yeah, we usually do like a ten day run
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: out west ten to fourteen days like West Coast. Yeah,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: and then we'll do like Maren will do like a
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: ten day Europe run a lot like every year every
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: other year. But that's basically it. So then we can
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: leave most of the time like Wednesday night, play Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: be home Sunday. That's generally the rhythm that people in
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Nashville have except for with the exception of West Coast
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: and Europe. And then these people have been playing like
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: festivals in Australia too, which is a long way to go.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: So I haven't done that yet, but maybe we will someday.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: That's dope, man.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: This episode of Busting with the Boys is brought to
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: you by Whoop and I am stoked that Woop is
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: on board and sponsoring the Boys because it makes the
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: most sense for our podcast being an athlete being athletes,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: and Whoop being the best fitness tracker in the game.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: They're partnered with the NFLPA, so everybody in the NFL
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: gets a free Whoop strap or gets strapped with a Whoop.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Everyone in the PGA Tour is strapped with a Whoop
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: because it measures your respiratory rate, so people are wearing
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: the Whoop strap to help determine early signs of COVID.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: The shit is awesome. I've been aware since twenty sixteen.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: I'm a huge advocate of Whoop and any athlete out
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: there listening. Anybody in the fitness anybody looking to measure
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: their health get a Whoop. You should be wearing a
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Whoop strap. Check them out. They're a wearable fitness tracker
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: on your wrist that provides personalized insights on the performance
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: of your sleep, how recovered your body is, and how
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: much stress you put on your body throughout the day
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: from your workouts, daily life stressors. All of it. Whether
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: you're already in shape or looking towards being healthier. Woop
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: help provides actionable insights that are personalized and tailored to you.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: What's great with Whoop is that every day when you
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: get up, you get a recovery score based on your HRV,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: which is heart rate variability. It's literally the variance in
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: time between the beats of your heart you're resting, heart
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: rate and sleep performance. That can be used as an
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: indicator on how to approach your day and training. So,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: for example, if you get green recovery or you're at
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: a high percentage your body is ready to take on
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: a lot of strain that day, that's a sign that
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: you can have a more intensive workout. But if it's red,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: or say below thirty percent, that's a signal that you
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: might want to take a rest day, pull back a
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: little bit, and have an active recovery day. The Whoop
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: app even has built in features like a strain Coach,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: which actually gives you target exertion goals to work out
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: optimally for the level of intensity your body is signaling
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: that it can handle. If you're not sure what type
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: of training your body is ready for, this is an
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: awesome feature to keep you from overtraining and just to
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: let you know where you're at every day and based
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: on how strenuous Torday is. The app has a built
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: in sleep coach, which actually lets you know how much
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: sleep you should be getting so you can wake up
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: and be recovered based on your performance goals, which you
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: can set. The sleep coach, the sleeping that measures how
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: how long you're awake, when you're in bed, how you're
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: in light sleep, rem sleep, deep sleep, all of it. Dude,

  Speaker 2: those balances.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: What are some uh, what are some of the times
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: where you guys head butt in the music world, whether
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: it be touring, writing with or for each other, like
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: any of that stuff. Give me a moment where it's
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: not all smelling roses.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: We still write together, which is cool. I'm excited that
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: she still asked me to write songs with her because
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: she's got a really small group now that she trusts
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: to be creative with I don't know, like creatively, I
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: kind of just am there when it's always time. It's
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: always just about time and like when just calendar stuff.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: And that's why we have the same manager is like
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: those those like frictions are minimized when you have one
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: person managing both of our time. Yeah, but like it's
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: always like just getting on the same page time wise.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Have either of you have ever said that's a stupid lyric.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: I don't think we've said it like that to each other.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: I say that to it. I would say it to
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: someone like Earn be like, no, that's not it. But
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: I say it about myself more than anything. Usually I'm like,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: you'll say somebody like that's not right. Yeah, but uh yeah, man,
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: that we that she's just a fantastic songwriter. And that's
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: like where it all starts with everybody is like getting
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: good songs, whether you write them or you find them,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: like that always is the most important thing because that's
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's why people buy ticket is to hear
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: that song that they love.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: You know, me and Ern are sort of in the
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: same boat where it's like we we have a lot
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: of ship moving as writers. Right now, we're both trying
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: to get like over that hump as you where is
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: he's out there drinking beer in the parking lot and
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: he didn't get him and he didn't bring me one.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: This could be a good conversation about the writing world
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: because they've written, they wrote together.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: We're in the same boat where it's like we're both
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: just looking at each other, like how fuck do you
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: get on the radio?
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what's what's one of your favorite memories on the road?
• 26:57

• 32:03
  Speaker 2: for someone like me, like they're they're fans, and my
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: fans are like, I feel like there's a.
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: Lot of a lot of car over crossover overlap, So
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: why why is that?
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I just think that just the type
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: of music we both make.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: It it's not it's not too redneck.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I know I have a mullet, but
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: I'm not the most redneck.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: I was telling him, like, are you swing a lot
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: of different ways? He was actually complimenting earlier, saying there's
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: not many. There's not many people who swing a different
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: hammer all the time.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: Wasn't quite ready for that, I guess in your seat? Sorry, Pops,
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: do I need to get up?
• 32:36
  Speaker 7: Or Taylor Wells kind of glued to my seat?
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: So sorry?
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Do you want to share this microphone?
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: Similar we were talking about yesterday with like sports and
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: everything else you have, like ninety percent of the league
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: is kind of the same and then there's some unicorns.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Actually, someone's sitting over there right now.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: You are You are too, well, Taylor, Taylor is.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: This is definitely play more talented than.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: In the football.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: Songwriters. Who are you meet songwriters? They are all kind
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: of the same amount of talent. And then you get
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: in the room with guys like like Michael and Iarn
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: and you're like, oh my god, this guy's I would
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: never say this to your face.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: Well don't.
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: This guy.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: This guy's hands down more talented than everybody else. It's
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: like the guys that can just like spit out a
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: second verse in like one second, and you're like, oh,
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: that's it and we don't have to change anything, Like,
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: not a lot of people can just like, actually, there's
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: not even a lot of people I think that can
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: write lyrics. To be honest, I think that. I don't
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: mean that in a world full of songwriters, that's pretty heavy.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: I think that's like, I think that's the most challenging
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: thing for most people. And then like when when you
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: meet people who are it comes like very effortless, like
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: you or Michael, It's like, damn, that's the special Eric Pasley.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: Do you guys know who Eric Pasley is. He's another
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: dude like that that you might not think of. That's like,
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: it's it's just effortless. So that was my compliment for
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: you earlier.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: Well, thank you, damn glad I got to hear that.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'll never give you another one.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: That's fine. Now, that'll hold me over that.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: You guys seem like you're in similar lanes where you
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: started out and kind of writing, and you're known and
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: well respected for all the writing, and now you're both
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: kind of touring and doing your music thing. You were
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: talking about that earlier about how he kind of got
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: into music. This episode of Busting with the Boys is
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: also brought to you by Feltman shut Out Feltman's Dude
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: and the Glizzies. Last week, I've learned on Twitter what
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: a glizzy was, not just Twitter, but the Urban Dictionary,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: and a glizzy is a hot dog. So I became
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: a grizzy gladiator. Last week they shipp us some hot
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: dogs in the mail. I was like, Okay, I guess
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: hot dogs are gonna sponsor the boys. Throw them on
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: the grill. They're phenomenal. Thrown at a couple Glizzies, gobbled
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: a couple Glizzies. I know that's a little but hey,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: no pause is how we do it on the pop Man.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: There's no pause out there. We throwed at a couple
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: of Glizzies last week.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: No pause.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: But Feltman's of Coney Island is the world's first hot
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: dog brand. Estimated since eighteen sixty seven, with Charles Feltman
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: being the investment sure of the Glizzie, which is per
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: the Urban Dictionary, the hot Dog. Feltman's is also a
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: military veteran run business, revived in twenty fifteen. The founders,
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Michael and Joe Quinn, revived the brand in honor of
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: their late brother Jimmy, who is tragically killed on nine
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: to eleven. And when I say veteran owned, these are
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: real hardcore vettes. These boys got thirty plus years in uniform,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: one hundred and thirteen months deployed overseas, with Joe deployed
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: three times to combat after his brother was killed on
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: nine to eleven. They all played D one sports at
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: Army as well, so athletes military. It all makes sense, USA.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: The Quinn brothers are diehard sports fans, especially football and baseball. Hence,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: while they sponsored the boys with some Glizzies. So here's
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: the thing. The Quinns have put together an annual Mets
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: game in honor of their brother Jimmy every year. Obviously
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: they can't be at the ballpark this year, so they're

  Speaker 1: was explaining what EP was, and would you say, what
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: does E P mean?
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: I mean he's stended play. But it's fucked up because it's.

  Speaker 1: Extended playlist, but it's a shorter album.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not extended.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: I thought, I'm an executive producer.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I thought, so, does hear episode.
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: EPs on like TV shows or songs?
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, you get that paper because yes, because you're the
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: executive producer.
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: When we walked away from your podcast yesterday, I'm speaking
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: very loudly because.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: I'm like, that's okay, that's okay right now.
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: When I talk about, I want to EP on your
• 37:27
  Speaker 7: next album, so I want to I want to get in.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: That do it known as a songwriter.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Do it, get Dereck Henry on my on my project.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: If you want to be known as a.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Songwriter, you got to write the songs.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: Dude.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: You can executive produce and not know anything about music.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: People do it all the time.
• 37:42
  Speaker 7: Song But if let's say the four of us are
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: sitting in a room and we wrote a song right now,
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: and I said one word that made it in that song.
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: You don't say a word, right, you just get credit
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: for right.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Yes, dude, if we if me and Ryan wrote a
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: song right now.
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: And y'all here, Taylor and Will and Taylor y'all.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: Y'all it is Will and Taylor because y'all are the room.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: Actually it's a one, two, three, four, five six.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: We don't have to give them credit there, you do
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: because they're in the room.
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's Nashville.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: I think we could argue that that that that half
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: of the room doesn't need credit for the song. We
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: could argue that, but it would be literally split. You
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: get twenty five twenty five twenty five twenty five if
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: you do it in La, though, or New York is
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: different because they would go.
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: I'll give you four percent of mind twenty five.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: But you would get if you were in LA, they
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: would like start arguing.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Over like they're keeping but get that mic closer.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: They would argue about like who who wrote what, and
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: like how much you each deserved? Yeah, and so like
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: you would like all those A lot of those songs
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: go into dispute, so nobody gets paid until the dispute
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: is settled because some guys like, well I deserve more
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: than four percent because I moved this mic cable or something.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: And they hold up everybody's pay In Nashville, you feel
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: like it's different than Nashville.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: Pretty much just cut and dry, the only thing you
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: run into in Nashville is like if somebody potentially like
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: if you are on top of somebody else's song, you
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: might have to give them some credit. Like Brett Eldridge
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: when he did that Crazy song, he had that Celo
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Green like Crazy, he had literally like the the hook
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: to Crazy, and so he had to give credit that
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: those writers had to give credit to all the people
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: who wrote Crazy. And I'm sure it wasn't like an
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: equal split, but like sometimes you have to do that.
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: But other than that, like it's just we split it
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: all down the middle here or equally than la oh yeah,
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: because I mean it's just if you.
• 39:36
  Speaker 7: Wrote song, well, me, Will and Ernest had a thumb
• 39:39
  Speaker 7: up brasses the whole time in the morning.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: That's so I'm saying Taylor and I were just sitting
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: here and you guys walked out like, well, even it's
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: gonna be a great.
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: Song, number one song because you've had four or five
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: number one songs.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, But I would say two things to that. I
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: would say you because when we wrote Heartless, I was
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: the dude I walked in and he started just it
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: fell out of him and I just had my phone
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: being like no, you got to say that again exactly
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: like that, and you need that guy to be like
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: definitely the editor right sometimes, And then i'd also say
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: that if it's truly like I did ninety five percent
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: of it and it was a huge hit, I'm not
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: I'm just not gonna do it again. You know, all
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: your people be like, we gotta get this crew back together,
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: and I'd be.
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: Like, no, but the crew is technically already together.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: That's what I would That's yeah, So that's the fall
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: figures itself out.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: Do you like being a songwriter? Do they be a
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: performer better?
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: Is that one of them? They're different? I like being
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: a songwriter. That question, it's music all the time.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but he let him elaborate more.
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: Two of us missed it.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: I would like for you to.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Performing.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: I think you'll have a similar answer. But I like
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: when you're a writer, you're creative all the time. It's
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: all music, and when you're an artist, it's like ninety
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: percent not music bullshit, And it's that's a word for it.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: It's just like I'm yeah, So I like doing both
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: things because the less I write, I feel like the
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: more I hit the bulls eye. Yeah, because my I'm
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: never burnt. But also and I like playing shows. I
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: like obviously like the recording of music. I like the
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: music part of being an artist, but there's so much
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: attached to it. That's like. But I also don't want
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: to just write songs because I feel like you just
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: write too many and you get burnt out and then
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: just they get shittier. So I like doing both things
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: and earnest like you were one of the few dudes
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: like me who does both.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's not a lot of them. I totally agree.
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: I feel the same way about artistry. They're like there's
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: a there's a part of me. Maybe it's ego or whatever,
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: but I've always wanted to perform songs or like, sometimes
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: I'll be writing a song and it's I know, as
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: soon as we're writing it, this is for me. I
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: want to sing this song. So like that that or
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: whatever is getting itched by being an artist. But as
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: far as creator goes, like I can't turn off writing songs.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be writing songs either way.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: Well, you kind of I feel like you just create
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: shit all the time, whether you're just creating a text
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: for myself. Yeah, just like trying to make somebody laugh.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean that's the fact that songwriting
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: is a job is unreal, Like haha, high school teachers
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: like you're a d D and not listening in class,
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: so you better pay attention. You're gonna need to go
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: finish college if you want to get a real job.
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: It's like, I have a sociology degree, which is basically.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: How do you and how does that make it? And
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: how does that make you feel?
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: You know what?
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: I had not a lot to do with writing a song,
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: so whatever, I just yeah. I think the difference too,
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: is like a lot of people want to be an artist,
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: like I wish I was a country music artist, but
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: then there's dudes that are just like that kid just
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: is one. Yes, And that's like so like people, you
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: get better at writing songs, get better at making recordings,
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: but either sometimes either are one or you aren't one.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: And I think that that's what people, like real fans
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: kind of catch on to, is like they know.
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: What, Zach, Yeah, I want to be an NFL football Yeah,
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: I ain't gonna. I can go to the gym every day. Again,
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: we can.
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: Tackle each other every Thursday night.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: I'm not taking a hit from either of y'all, I'll
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: take a hit.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Have you had.
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: You ever had to tackle Derrick Henry?
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Will he was a few times, he was right there.
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: A couple of times you tripp or something. Well, yeah,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: you go through with it. No, Yeah, he's a he's
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: a monstery somebody you just you just drop low on
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: in the hole. A lot of guys are very prideful
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: and they want to see if they got it. But
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: as you see Derrick Henry, the majority of times.
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: I was gonna say the majority of the time, did
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: Earl Thomas and Derrick Henry a Father's Day card this year?
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Had a hard We actually, hey, it's his it's his
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: mic on yet exactly. Yeahs Taylor, you're grabbing that mic.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's on right now. We can
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: all we can all hear you for sure. It is okay.
• 43:56
  Speaker 7: I've been holding my tongue like since I've walked in here.
• 43:58
  Speaker 7: By the way, I'm very sorry.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: I don't mean you do that. I'm having a having
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: a great time. Yeah, I told him this year we
• 44:07

• 44:14
  Speaker 2: good and he's getting there. We're almost there, dude.
• 44:17
  Speaker 7: The first six months is like I'm just keeping this
• 44:19
  Speaker 7: thing a lot.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I wake up at four am every day
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: to feed him and then put him back to bed.
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: And tough life.
• 44:26
  Speaker 7: It gets there for sure. My my first daughter, she
• 44:28
  Speaker 7: was born July July fifth, and like two weeks later
• 44:31
  Speaker 7: I had to go to camp. But those two weeks
• 44:33
  Speaker 7: I was like, I was like in it because my
• 44:35
  Speaker 7: wife is she's dead, right yeah. And then my daughter
• 44:39
  Speaker 7: now she's due July sixteenth, and so it's like I'm
• 44:41
  Speaker 7: kind of I kind of get a get jail free throat.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: I have to go to CAP.
• 44:44
  Speaker 7: It's kind of a weird little deal.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: But we were we were gonna I was gonna be
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, we tour, so our schedules kind of go
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: like this, but we we wanted a tour together this
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: year just so that like I didn't miss a whole
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: chunk of time. But it's a it's a lot of work, man.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: They're like, oh, it's a lot of work, and then
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: you are doing it. Oh shit, this is is a
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: lot a lot of work. And then you always I think,
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: like your kid has a rough day. Like my daughter,
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: she's gett me three, and she'll.
• 45:08
  Speaker 7: Like like be super like mean, or like she'll do
• 45:13
  Speaker 7: something that's like not good right, and I'll be like, hey,
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: don't don't do that, And like then you get frustrated
• 45:17
  Speaker 7: as your patients are low and then they go to bed,
• 45:19
  Speaker 7: and then your head you're like, what if I just
• 45:21
  Speaker 7: created a serial killer by doing the right things. Some
• 45:24
  Speaker 7: people do kid, some people do Dahmer, all those guys,
• 45:28
  Speaker 7: But like, you know, I don't want to to be
• 45:30
  Speaker 7: a Dahmer.
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: Manson Jimmy Dahmer had no idea when he when you know,
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: when he went ahead said I'm shooting it, Jeffrey, No,
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: Timmy's his dad. I'm talking. But when I'm saying, I'm
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: not talking about a bullet. When I say shooting it,
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about I'm gonna make this kid. And then
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: that kid we named him Jeffrey damn dude could not Yeah,
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: for sure.
• 45:56
  Speaker 7: But parenting. Parenting is the most stresful job in the
• 45:57
  Speaker 7: world because you just feel like every day is like,
• 46:00
  Speaker 7: am I doing the right thing as a parent? Am
• 46:01
  Speaker 7: I making sure that this kid? When they're three months old,
• 46:04
  Speaker 7: you're like, hey, I'm keeping you alive, and then six
• 46:06
  Speaker 7: months hits and you'll be like you're gonna come home
• 46:08
  Speaker 7: and he's gonna be like kind of smiling anything.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: All right. That's the hardest part is when you're like
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: you don't feel like a dad until like the kid comes,
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: because it's like you're not pregnant with it. You can't
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: feel a kick a little bit, but that's it. And
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: then like it comes and I didn't feel like this
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: massive emotional flow is more like all right, here's the kid,
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: and we're gonna keep it alive. But slowly he's like
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: starting to have like facial expressions and like starting to
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: like you could see like recognizes me. That part's cool,
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: Like that's like, my it's been like a steady increase
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: in feeling like a dad as opposed to just like
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: this huge wave of it. But yeah, it's it's it's
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know if we're gonna do
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: it again.
• 46:52
  Speaker 7: We had one where like you gotta give it, you
• 46:54
  Speaker 7: gotta give it.
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: He's pretty easy though, and that's the thing is, like, man,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: we got an easy kid. Everybody tells us he's easy.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: Why would we how do we potentially get a shitty one?
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's say I hear the second one.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: Hear the second ones are the handfuls bit of a doozy.
• 47:05
  Speaker 7: No, I've always thought like the second one. Like my wife,
• 47:09
  Speaker 7: she was the second one, and she was like the
• 47:12
  Speaker 7: good kid like Quinn, her brother, wild child, like add
• 47:15
  Speaker 7: poster child like me, bam bam bam bam, off the walls.
• 47:18
  Speaker 7: And then I was the first and I was the
• 47:20
  Speaker 7: kid that was off the walls. But my brother would
• 47:22
  Speaker 7: sit there and just watch me. But I feel like
• 47:24
  Speaker 7: the second kids always like easier for whatever reason, because
• 47:28
  Speaker 7: they're being entertained by the first one. Now having to
• 47:32
  Speaker 7: like then you go from my Hey, both of us,
• 47:33
  Speaker 7: you and me, we're gonna get on the skate. We're
• 47:35
  Speaker 7: going to make sure these kids no no on nowhere
• 47:37
  Speaker 7: and I'm doing something wrong. When you got too, it's like, hey,
• 47:39
  Speaker 7: i'll see you. I'll see you to night before we
• 47:40
  Speaker 7: go to bed.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're lucky, and we had to get in there.
• 47:44
  Speaker 7: You know I'll be over here, you'd be over there.
• 47:46
  Speaker 7: Parenting's cool as shit, though it's different. I feel like
• 47:50
  Speaker 7: like before I had kids, I didn't know if I'd
• 47:52
  Speaker 7: ever want to have kids, But now that I have kids.
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: I'm like, man, it's the coolest thing ever.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: I didn't want one until I was with Mare and
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, I could have a kid with you,
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: And I never had that like like there's you know,
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: people are like, man, I just want to be a dad,
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: like they've dreamed about it their whole life. And I
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: was like when I met her and I was like, okay,
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: that makes sense. So I've had that's been awesome. I
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: wouldn't have done it unless it was with somebody who's like, oh,
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: I want to have a kid with you. I think.
• 48:18
  Speaker 7: I think a lot of ways people get stuck in
• 48:20
  Speaker 7: Like people make plans like by the time I'm twenty five,
• 48:22
  Speaker 7: I want to have this job. By the time I'm
• 48:24
  Speaker 7: twenty seven, I want to be married by the time
• 48:25
  Speaker 7: I'm thirty, I want to have two kids. And they
• 48:27
  Speaker 7: have like this timeline in their head. But then you
• 48:29
  Speaker 7: end up like just saying, Okay, well I need to
• 48:32
  Speaker 7: be married by twenty seven, so I'm going to marry
• 48:34
  Speaker 7: the person that i'm with right now. That's and that
• 48:35
  Speaker 7: person might not be the person for you. You know
• 48:37
  Speaker 7: what I'm saying. Because I was kind of that way too,
• 48:39
  Speaker 7: Like I was really you know, I was kind of.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: A rambling man.
• 48:42
  Speaker 7: I was kind of going from place to place, kind
• 48:44
  Speaker 7: of a little bit of a fuck boy. To be
• 48:45
  Speaker 7: totally honest with you, I was, I was riding a
• 48:46
  Speaker 7: little thirty out there and yeah, think you this stand
• 48:50
  Speaker 7: up gentleman. You and I met Taylor, and all that
• 48:53
  Speaker 7: stuff kind of like just went away.
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: I was just like, man, this is oh.
• 48:55
  Speaker 7: Yeah, A proposed her in five weeks, five weeks, five weeks,
• 48:58
  Speaker 7: proposer in five weeks, got married on four twenty and uh,
• 49:03
  Speaker 7: thank you. Married got married on four secretly some little
• 49:10
  Speaker 7: church at Vanderbilt. No one knew about it, and then
• 49:12
  Speaker 7: we got married two years later, very for everybody else.
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: So it was a cool gig.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: I feel like some of that stuff can be like
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: I chalk it up as like small town syndrome, because
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: when I was growing up, we all kind of breach.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: You up in small towns and you kind of think, like,
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: I want to be buried probably with a kid by
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: twenty five because everyone around you, the generation above you,
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: like they all did it, even though they're all arguing
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: now and they kind of all hate each.
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: Other'sall town syndrome is a great song time you see.
• 49:40
  Speaker 6: That's the great.
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: Syndrome getting married.
• 49:48

  Speaker 3: came out to me. He goes, white claws are bad
• 54:07

  Speaker 7: How about that, though, Dude, you you can't become a
• 54:26
  Speaker 7: famous football player by yodeling in a Walmart.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: That's just no dope.
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: Would that be if you could? You can become a
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: professional player. About just hauling off at a minor league game.
• 54:37
  Speaker 7: Sometime sounds game. He threw like ninety six That's what
• 54:41
  Speaker 7: I'm saying.
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: And now he's got signed by the A Yeah.
• 54:43
  Speaker 7: Sign, that's right.
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: It's insane.
• 54:46
  Speaker 7: Football is worst sport to pick.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: Huh.
• 54:48
  Speaker 7: Basketball, You out there, just go crush it, crush it.
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: Boom, you're in I mean, you've made a lot of
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: money with football, so why is it the worst sport?
• 54:57
  Speaker 7: It's the worst sport to get like, like.
• 55:01
  Speaker 5: I think it's the worst sport to get like found, okay,
• 55:06
  Speaker 5: get found in a Walmart?
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: Well were we gary? Bring that stuff back up? What
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: were we talking about?
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: Who knows you were? You were going in on saying
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: use me, Oh yeah, as long as the check clears man, Yes,
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: just use it up. Take my music, like, cut it
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: however you want, put it on the race.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: So there there's something that there's a formula already in
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: place for people that want to do something like that.
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're paid a song, like it's publishing royalties, you're
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: paid to do it. Yeah.
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: But I think like in your case, like you are
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: in that crew of like Morgan and Michael and and
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: like there is a thing there that you have created
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: with the other those other two dudes. It's like it's
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: a it's a style, and it's very much something that
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: you're a part of. And so I think it's like
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: with you, it's just waiting your turn to when like
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: that third dude can come in and and and do
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: it like kind of behind those two guys boats. I
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: mean the thing about Morgan and my they got their
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: first and that's the only thing that it is. So yeah,
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: but you get to write all the songs and have
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: all the singles, and obviously that's a good living. But
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: uh but yeah, man, it's just we're we're in the
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: same boat where it's like, man, we just need like
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: that one like I had a my song got to
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: top twenty at radio and then it, uh it's a
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: platinum record. But it just it's like you need like
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: to stack those up a couple of times before you
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: can like have that ball rolling. And that's like the
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: same boat that we're both in.
• 56:25
  Speaker 7: There's gotta be some sort of politics that plays into it, though.
• 56:27
  Speaker 7: If you have that many guys getting together doing riding around,
• 56:29
  Speaker 7: that's the nine Yeah you don't want to do Yeah, yeah,
• 56:34
  Speaker 7: you got to sit there and all right, well not
• 56:35
  Speaker 7: a're just gonna say the song it's going to be
• 56:37
  Speaker 7: number one. I'm sure there's a different release.
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's. I mean it's a lot of behind the
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: scenes stuff that like sometimes artists don't even have much
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: say and what comes out next or when and how
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: how they're released. Oh really, Yeah, I mean we're definitely
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: involved in like picking songs and stuff and all that,
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: but sometimes, you know, labels get to look at analytics
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: and actual numbers, so it's like less of a guessing game,
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: like oh, I like this song, Let's do this. It's like, well,
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: this one's streaming well, so let's numbers are already saying
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: this will probably do well, so let's run that one
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: to radio.
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: There's like all that being so, Aaron, let's take your
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: feelings out of it, look at the.
• 57:11
  Speaker 3: Dyea And that's hard to do as a creator because
• 57:14
  Speaker 3: feeling is like everything. We write songs around feeling, and
• 57:17
  Speaker 3: right when it comes to what we actually get to
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: portray ourselves as like sometimes we get we have to
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: take that feeling away.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, gotcha.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: I had this song come out called what Her Name Was? Summer,
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: and it was my favorite song, and I was like,
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: this is the one, this is it, and I was
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: the only one that thought that, and then.
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: I am right.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: And then it went to it got too serious and
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: it got like it did all right, but it was
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: very obvious it was not the one.
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: I was like, he comes in the meeting, Hey, Ryan,
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: did you learn your lessons?
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I talk about that dumb ass song you want
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: to play and you can tell like when you play live,
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: like what songs are huge? And that's one that I'm like, oh,
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: this is going to be huge. And then it's like
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: very medium.
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: I didn't do it.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: It didn't do very well live you hear.
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: It's just not like on the people are like, fuck yeah,
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: it's not the reaction you dreamed that.
• 58:09
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Like that scene in Queen where the guy starts
• 58:12
  Speaker 7: to singing and the whole crowd start behind him.
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: He just stop.
• 58:15
  Speaker 7: That's the whole thing kind of That's like the thing
• 58:17
  Speaker 7: you dream about as like an athlete, because athletes want
• 58:19
  Speaker 7: to be singers, songwriter, as actor. They want to be
• 58:22
  Speaker 7: what they're not. Everybody wants to be what they're not.
• 58:24
  Speaker 7: And so like you sit there and you're watching Queen
• 58:26
  Speaker 7: or the Elton John movie or any ship like that.
• 58:29
  Speaker 7: I mean, I'm not trying to be you know, a
• 58:30
  Speaker 7: homosexual guy from London, super talented, super talented, but happy.
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: Being what I am.
• 58:36
  Speaker 7: But I'm saying as a singer songwriter, like having somebody
• 58:40
  Speaker 7: like call recall to you would be like the dopest
• 58:42
  Speaker 7: shit ever, or.
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: Like telling that lawyer dude, like no, I think this
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: single tell the off. Dude, you're having that amount of
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: cloud that's and then you walk out and then throw
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: a fucking rock at the window. You know what happened.
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great movie. You'll my favorite movie.

• 59:01
  Speaker 2: Maybe's the actual Freddie Mercury vocal? Right? Yes, I liked
• 59:04
  Speaker 2: that they did that because yes, you can't fake that.
• 59:06

• 59:28
  Speaker 3: Drug there is and not once did you pay for drugs? Yes,
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: Walkard's best, but Joaquum did a pretty good Johnny Cash.

  Speaker 7: Okay, heroes and we uh and then Sugar Bowl win, right, Yeah,
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 7: when the Sugar Bowl we went out, I think that
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 7: was the only actually good year we had because from
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 7: O nine to thirteen, that's when I was at Michigan,
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 7: was really a very dark time, weird, very weird. Rich
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 7: Rodriguez came from West West Virginia.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: You really brought him down, did not.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 7: He did not have a good night's sleep, I think
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 7: the whole time he was there.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: No, it was tough.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it was tough for him. And then Brady Hook
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 7: came in, who everybody wanted hardball but settle for Hoke
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 7: and uh, it just didn't work.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: Out hok either.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 7: But that that that Sugar Bowl win was really cool
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 7: against West uh Virgina Tech. It's like triple overtime.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 4: Brendan Gibbons with the kick. Did you ever see his interview?
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: I don't remember it, but I watched. I mean I
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: was watching the game he did.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 7: He did an interview after the game and they like
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 7: iced him twice and that's exactly what kicks and like,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 7: what were you thinking about? And he was like, I
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 7: was just thinking about brunette girls on the beach.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 7: He was like, yeah, coach tells me whenever I'm getting iced,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 7: just to think about girls in the beach. I'll never
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 7: miss a kid. He kicked that thing, right. I love
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 7: Brendan Gibbon.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: I feel like everything kind of changed for Michigan when
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: you guys lost the Appalachian State.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 7: But that was that was before I was. There was
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 7: two thousand and eight.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: That was last year that was in the air. That
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: was right, so like it all went weird that year.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: I remember when Michigan, ohioseate was one two with Chad
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: Hanny Mike Hall, Yeah, and they lost by it was
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: it two?
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 7: It's like seven, right Smith.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: To Troy Smith and Maurice Clarette.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then we won or Michigan. We I was
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: on the team. I then like they beat him with
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: the nard and then that was it and they've just
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: gotten their ass beat ever since, and it's been really
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: just appointing.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 7: Well, there was there was one game after I left
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 7: that was pretty close. It was that fourth and inches
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 7: and they didn't get it.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: But they gave it to him. That's bullshit, absolute, you know,
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: and everybody's like, oh, it didn't matter because they got
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 2: the ball back, but Wilton dropped the ball on the
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: on the goal line and whatever.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 7: Well shape Patterson, our helmets are cool. Yeah, responsor by Jordan.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 7: We should definitely go there. There's a there's I've actually
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 7: talked to Portnoy about this when we were in Miami.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 7: Is Michigan's just it hurts to say it because I
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 7: went there. You're a fan, but very irrelevant at this time.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 7: I don't know what you need to do because you
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 7: have the Jordan sponsorship, you have the history and tradition
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 7: at Michigan's unbelievable. The uniforms are iconic. What I don't
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 7: know what they have to do to kind of catch
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 7: up with Ohio State.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: Because they need to drop to the academic requirements a
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: little bit. Well, your boy got in there, and I'll
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: tell you what it wasn't good. I got two seven
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: with the sliding scale. My act was stupid good, but
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: I got. And so they're not quite like Vanderbilt. Where
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: Vanderbilt you literally have to be able to get in
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: school to play there. That's a death penalty and it's hell.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: Were you a good test taker? Was that good test taker?
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: No?

• 1:11:50
  Speaker 2: I mean we we Uh. I don't know how would
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 2: you describe this. I'm trying to like, it's it's a
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 2: big deal.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: It's a publishing deal.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: It's like yeah, well, I mean look, I mean for
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: a lot of people getting a publishing deal, I mean
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: for me, I mean I was working at donut Den
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 3: in Green Hills.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: You worked a donut den?
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: Hell yeah, I got a lifetime free donuts. Can't tell.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 2: Dude.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: I mean for for most people, that's the dream. You
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: come to Nashville, you want, you want to write songs,
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: you get it. You get somebody to give you a
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 3: publishing deal. Guess what, that's your job. You don't have
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: a regular job anymore.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 7: And if you get the.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: Dream, yeah, that's it.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: Getting a publishing deal.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: For me, that was it. That was like I signed
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: my first deal when I was twenty five years old,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 2: and I that was like, that means you are a professional,
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 2: paid professional songwriter. Yes, And if you put that into context.
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 2: Somebody told me this once and I looked it up.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: It kind of holds true. In America, there's thirty five
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: thousand paid professional baseball players, okay, majors, minors, semi pro, whatever.
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 2: There's thirty five hundred paid professional songwriters in America. People
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: who make a living as not all artists, but guys
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: like me and Ernest and girls who write songs for
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 2: other people like that's their job is just the writing
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: of the music. There's thirty five hundred people in America
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: that do that job, and maybe somebody can update me
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 2: because I was like five years ago somebody told me
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 2: that they're just obvious.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: You need to start leveraging the NFL numbers because we're
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: smaller than the baseball numbers.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 7: We're like twenty I think we're like twenty two, twenty
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 7: two hundred, twenty two hundred NFL players, and like right now,
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 7: there's a lot more because you have a bigger roster
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 7: you have you have fifty three man roster times thirty two.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: Boys, it's way easier to be a songwriter than a
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: baseball player, but way harder to be a well.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: Closer around there.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but also like you, I mean, minor minor league
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 7: BASBA players even Triple.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: A don't make shit.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: You don't make sure they don't make it.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 7: But like most songwriters will be baseball players.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 3: Dude, dude, I would like to probably compare a double
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 3: a baseball player's salary to a first publishing deal salary.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: Oh really, that you got to make sure NFL players?
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: Was that that somebody telling us twenty eight hundred songwriters? Damn? Wow?
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: Even less dude, I know, well, it's tables keep turning.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 2: It's not tables. Turn last ten years have been a
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 2: little rough on the old uh on the songwriters, just
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 2: because of the way that music's consumed. Is trying to
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 2: get that balance back out. But uh yeah, so most
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 2: songwriters are not millionaires. That's like the that's just the
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: truth of it. Most of them make a common misconception
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: kind of well, I mean like some of them are,
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: but most of them, like you're my first deal was
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 2: for like twenty eight thousand dollars a year.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: Now is that twenty five?
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: That's like pretty good? Yeah, how long is that contract?
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: Probably forty years? Yeah, how many years?
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: Four years?
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: How old are you now?
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 2: Thirty three?
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: So when you re up to this one, is it
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: you basically moved up in publishing companies.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 2: The same amount of quality. I mean, both of those
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: companies are amazing. Universal Music is obviously like the big
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 2: music company in the world. But yeah, yeah, it's more
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 2: like the percentages come back in my favor the more
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: that I do it. God, Like the salary part of
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: it's a draw, so it's like an advance, but the
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: royalties are what you're you're partnering, you're.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: Splitting, right, they'll give you a month, they'll give you
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 3: a monthly payment.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: The potential is better you pay it back.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it goes back.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 3: To it comes comes back out of your pocket.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm just trying to learn, dude. So it
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: sounds like a big deal music.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 2: The money like the way money flows and music is wild,
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: just wild. Yeah, it's it's complicated, and then once you
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 2: get it, you're like, oh that makes sense. Yeah.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 3: Business manager was the best thing that ever happened to me,
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 3: because yeah, I have a good one. I can't think
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: about it, and now I don't have to. I just
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 3: have to, like son some papers every now and then,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: and I know all of my ship's getting taken care of.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 3: No dude, all my bills, Like, I don't worry about it.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: He sneaks the power of attorney in there.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 7: He signed this you're an idiot. Yeah yeah, I keep
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 7: on writing them songs and as you kill, keep going,
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 7: keep seeing me.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: Those people get they get a dirty business manager. Those
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: people get kicked out pretty quick. So yeah, they get
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: found out.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no question, had your credit card yesterday?
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 7: I still ye, yeah, I know he still has credit
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 7: card on the bustle with the boys credit card, so
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 7: you could have bought beers. I could. I think it's
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 7: the first, don't. I don't know what Will has been
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 7: spending this credit card on, but I bought six bottles
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 7: of water not with it?
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what have you been spending on it?
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: I don't use it like a debit card?
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 3: Would you use it for cars?
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: Trucks? Cars? As I'll plug that card info for Venmo
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: and paying people like using the card instead of giving
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: like the whole bank account card feed.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 7: Obviously, I got to look at that buck.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think where would we should settle on? Twenty
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: five d a piece.

• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: See those things aren't cool?
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: Are great in person than they are.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 7: Most of this stuff. I think ninety nine percent of
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 7: these stickers were on here when we first got this bus.
• 1:17:09

  Speaker 1: can read stories, we can read articles, we can see
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: you guys met.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 7: We're asking you to make us some money on views here.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 7: So here's a favorite.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I met we writing songs and so like she
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 2: moved to town to be a songwriter, not an artist,
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: and we started writing like every week or two and
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: and had like a creative relationship first and eventually became
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 2: something different. But like we wrote songs like Tim McGraw
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: and brothers Osbourne and she was a writer and then
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, she started like writing songs that
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: people couldn't sing, Like she'd try to pitch them and
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 2: then but nobody could do it. And that's when she
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: started like making her own recordings again. And she's been
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 2: doing this since she was eleven years old, like playing
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: bars and like that's what people say. They're like, oh,
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 2: this is like she became like was a fast. It
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 2: was like fast for her and it's like, eh, kind
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 2: of like if you take the whole, take it as
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: a whole. It was. She's been doing it since she
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 2: was eleven years old. But she's there's not I mean odd,
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: like nobody she's the best songwriter I've ever met.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 3: I still believe that, Like there's no sorry, it's okay.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 3: I let that one go.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 2: I think most people would be like, yeah, it's true.
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: She best singer in Nashville. Is it's just kind of crazy,
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: like there's there and she's also like we talked about
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 2: ninety center of the ship is not music that ninety
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: percent she is great at so like she's just sort
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: of like the if you would build an artist in
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: for like country music in Nashville, it's it's her. So
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 2: but we man, it's cool. We've had a really cool relationship.
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 2: It is funny like I you, you forget how famous she.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 2: I forget how famous she is and so like because
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 2: I am like a writer and I have a career
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: as an artist, but it's not the same in any
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 2: like even in the same stratosphere as hers. So it
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: is funny like I'll sometimes forget, like, oh shit, she's
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: a superstar and I am. I have to like kind
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: of keep that in mind. It is like harder to
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: like go out with her now, and like even we
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: have like a couple of places we can go to dinner,
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 2: but like for the most part, like she's got to
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: kind of keep a low profile now. And uh but yeah,
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 2: we we got engaged in Michigan at our lake house Michigan.
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: Uh yeah, man, cool?
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: What was your what was your first flirting pickup line tour?
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: When did the table start to turn when you guys
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: were at what comment did you have to.
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 7: Saw a question?
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: Well?
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I could. I could. We definitely into
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: each other, like pretty early on, but I remember we
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: ended up, uh were we started dating I think officially
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 2: like New Year's Eve of like five years ago or
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 2: something like that. So that was that was pretty That
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: was pretty cool. It was like we're just gonna be
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: dating now, and so that was kind of fun to
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 2: like make out in front of everybody making Facebook, like
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 2: all your friends are there, Like I guess they're actually
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: together now, So like, oh.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Ryan fucking pulled it off.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, at one point, you know, I had more
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: going on than than she did when we first you know,
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 2: started writing, because she had just moved in Nashville, and
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 2: then very quickly the script was flipped. So which is
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 2: totally okay. Man. I feel like if you uh, I
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: just I've always I don't feel threatened ever. I think
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: people have asked me that it's like does this ever,
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: like do you feel threatened by the success of your wife?
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 2: It's like, fuck, no, man, It's like this is I
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: have like the ultimate freedom. Oh I don't have. Like
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 2: everything I do is just like icing like everything, like
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: because being with somebody like that. I think that like
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: dudes a lot of times get attracted to strong women
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: and then they can't handle it because they feel like
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: for some reason it diminishes them. And I feel the
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 2: exact opposite. I feel like being with a strong woman
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: frees me up to be literally do whatever I want.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: I don't have to worry about like I mean obviously
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: to worry about her, but like I don't have to
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 2: prop her up in any way. It's just she can
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: handle her own shit, and I feel like that is
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: a really cool way to have a relationship. You get
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: to go golfing, and I like watching her like pop
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 2: off on the internet at people, Like that's really fun
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 2: for me. And then people either tell me like to
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: back her up or like to tell her to stop,
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 2: and it's like, man, I don't need to say anything,
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 2: Like I'll come in there every once in a while
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 2: when I feel like I need to say something. But
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: for the most part, she can handle herself and that's cool. Yeah,
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: and then uh, I don't know. I'm just like been
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 2: proud over the last month because she's one of the
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 2: I think the few country artists that's like been really
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 2: vocal about like the stuff going on in our country
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: and just even if you don't agree with it, like hey,
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 2: she's putting herself out there in a big way and
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 2: and and that's that takes nuts. It really does, especially
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 2: in our genre.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 3: Where you know that everybody's going to crucified, famously crucified
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 3: yea having an opinion.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, especially if you don't that's correct.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like keep politics out of it. It's like, no,
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: you just don't.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 7: Agree with her politics, like she said, exactly what you want.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: Just like the massive double standard for people who I
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: think are I mean you deal with the people tell
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, if if if you if you have any
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 2: opinion it it's like, hey, you just go like just
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: keep singing. That's all we want you to do. And
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 2: it's like I'm a I built this platform, it's mine.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 2: I can do whatever the funk I want with it, right, or.
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 6: It's like what Okay, so what is your exact job? Oh,
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 6: you're a your only plumbers can have an opinion. But
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: hearn is actually like really outspoken to on social media,
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 6: and that's hey.
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 7: You don't say I just think that man wrots a
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 7: bullet on a Wednesday. He's outspoken.
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 2: It's hard to have that when you when your platform
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 2: is smaller. And I feel the same way. And sometimes
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: I say stuff and sometimes I don't. And this, this
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 2: conversation got a little took a left turn from yeah
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 2: for sure, shout out number. I want I want details
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 2: on how you and Marin got together, but like, honestly,
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 2: it's just like it was a creative partnership that became
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 2: something more and now we really do have a cool thing.

  Speaker 7: But I never had that bug as a kid. My

• 1:26:15
  Speaker 7: been golfing for well.
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 2: I grew up playing and then I quit because I
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 2: was like, I'm bored and I don't want to do
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: this anymore. He had made it yet, I hadn't made

  Speaker 2: it yet, and that I made it, honestly, like when
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: everything's shut down, that was the only thing you could do.
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: And I was like, I guess I'm gonna go to
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 2: play too golf with my brother.
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 3: I might not make it because of golf. Yeah, Like, dude,
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: I literally quarantine. I never played golf in my life.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 3: I was always a baseball player, though, and I sliced
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 3: the shit out of the ball from the left side
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 3: with my golf swing, so I was always discouraged. Quarantine happened.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 3: My parents started playing golf out of nowhere, so I
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 3: was going to meet them at the caave and like
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 3: walk nine holes with them two or three times a week.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 3: And I just swopped over and started hitting right handed
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 3: and realized I had way more fun. And I just
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 3: haven't stopped since the beginning of Quarantine. I just played
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 3: golf all the time.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: I love the camaraderie, you know what I mean. Yeah,
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: And you're like, it's my brother and to my manager,
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I'm going three people I've never actually
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 1: been met in real life. But it was a solid time.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 7: Were you nervous at that first t though?
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: What what gets me is is everyone wants to be
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: so silent when somebody's swinging and me, I kind of
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: don't mind, Like, hey, boys play some music. Yeah I
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: stopped watching me all right, Hey, but no doubt you
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: definitely feel that way. It's more like, I hope I
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: don't just roll this thing in front of me. But
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: I was like I was getting them in the air
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 1: and they were just going everywhere else you hit, But
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 1: I don't mind. I didn't mind that at least I'm
