Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Best Bits of the Week with Morgan, Part one
behind a scene with a member of the show. What's Up, everybody?
Welcome to the Best Fits. I'm joined by Ray Moondo.
This weekends. We are recording this from the glassroom of
our new studios, and it feels weird.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yeah, it's a little dangerous because you always want to know.
Am I on the air? Are we We wouldn't be
on the air though, because it's the weekend. Stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, okay, thank you for that, right, really insightful stuff.
We've never recorded from the classroom before, but this feels
appropriate because Ray likes to look at the board. Every
time I had him in the studio, he would get
anxious not being able to see the monitors in the board.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Where do I put my hands?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That kind of thing. Yeah, okay, well I need an
update on House Live, Country Live. Give me everything that's
going on over there.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Geez, you always want something big and bold. It's really pretty. Uh.
Country life is what it is. It doesn't change. That's
what I love about it.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah, but there has to be there been things that
are like coming up where you're like, ooh, I really
like this. No, I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Uh. Our grass died. Oh no, that's not too embarrassing.
And also we were kind of like a faux grass
because it was green with all the neighbors and when
the frost hit, ours was the only lawn that died, right,
And so then we hit up our guy. We go, hey, man,
how much is it going to cost a little bit
out of the price range? And he goes, yeah, what
you guys had was crap grass. And I go, are
(01:26):
you meaning crab grass or are you literally calling my
lawn crap?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
And which one was it?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
And where am I going to come up with this money?
So yeah, for now, we're good with dead grass.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
So it just got brown lawn living in the country
with some brown brown grass.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It was a cold snap, that's what did it.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, but we had it for like a day.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
That's all it takes.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Apparently when you have crap grass, crap grass, I have
crab grass.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
And then I sent the screenshot to my father in
law because Laura goes, hey, send it to me. I'll
send it to my dad and we'll just see what
we need to do. And we did it, AND's like,
what he's calling our lawn crap? I guess I don't know,
I don't know how to do fertilizer and stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I was gonna say, he nobody's put it in, right,
It just came from whatever was there before.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
We put some minor stuff. Oh yeah, it's not We
didn't obviously we didn't put sowd. That would be impossible.
We probably didn't even really do two advanced. I mean
maybe a little iron, a little bit of pellets here,
a little bit of grass there. But maybe there's something
else we got to put on. I bet a good
TikTok video and me and beaz Aer on a Saturday
could knock it out.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
That's probably true. But listen, if there is one thing
that I have learned about being a homeowner is that
taking care of your yard is a lot of freaking work,
and you have to do it every season.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But you know what Susan is, what it's called season.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
But Susan works too, thank.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
You, and uh, it's a labor of love. But also,
do you not feel the best after you water your trees,
after you're in your yard? Think about it. It sucks.
Maybe for an hour you have to instead of watching
television or playing on TikTok, you have to go water.
But afterwards, that might be the best I feel out
of the entire day.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I'm with you. I love taking care of my lawn
and stuff. But what I can tell you over the
course of time is that it becomes more of a chore,
and then the constant need to fertilize and reseed and
replant and all the time. It's all the time. It
never ends. So you think you're like, oh, I watered
my grass, I mowed everything. It looks beautiful. You could
(03:21):
be four weeks from them and be like, dang, it's
all gone.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
But also it does end. What if you get high
enough in your career where you can then pay someone
to mow your grass, pay someone, pay a watering system
to water your trees, then it is all done and
then you can retire.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
That's true, but I don't know. I'm weird about I'm
weird about spending money on things that I know I
can do myself.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Hmm. Yeah, that's saying. I'm a guy and I like
to lift things. Yeah, just just how we were built.
I will never pay a mover. Actually I did.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Media immedia that.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
My point is this, there's those apps right task rab
It and stuff where you can hire somebody because Laura's
not strong enough to lift stuff, and there were TVs
and fridges. What else did I get that might have
been it? And no, it was The other stuff is
a table and it really doesn't have a name. There
was another like a glass box. It was Jack Daniels
(04:21):
that I can put cool NFL helmets on that we
got from the old studio.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I lifted it all by myself. I probably should have
hired somebody or all your friends at this age you're working. Yeah,
they don't have free time in the middle of the
day to help you lift something. I'm like, I'm not
gonna get on an app when I can lift this
it might be I mean, I was sweating. It was insane.
Laura sees me in the bird cam. She goes, what
were you doing? You looked like you were lifting a
(04:44):
dead body. Well, probly our newa that's our new TV stand.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
You know, I do agree with you, But that's how
I broke my TV one time. Ry is when I
tried to lift it myself and it just came crashing
down because as soon as I finally got it off
the TV stand, it was like we all just tilted
over together. Yeah, that's how you break stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
There was one from the old studio and I talked
to Scoop about it. I go, dude, it wasn't even
a smart TV, and it makes sense. It was probably
ten years old. It's the one that had the blacked
out screen, so it's worthless. I'd end up taking it
to the dump. It was so heavy and it was
awkwardly heavy, and so it's one of those where you're
you think you can lift it, but that's what it is.
It weighs you in different ways and yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, Like it's really misconceiving where you're like standing there
and you're like, yeah, I got it, and then it's like, oh,
everybody's tells me over yep, exactly. Okay, well again I
say the things that you can't do yourself, these these
are things that you have can do by yourself exact. Yeah,
but you know, accept help where you can't. Maybe in
those well, I did get a fulfill my dreams of
(05:46):
being a pop star.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Ray, did I see this of you as Sabrina Carpenter? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I did, But you want to know why I actually
got to like fulfill my dreams of being the pop star,
not just dressing.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Up as her not really just kidding place that's rude.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
That's rude. Halloween is me up? So I was dressed
as a Sabrina carpenter and we went to a karaoke bar,
and not only did I sing her song, so like
I go on stage as Sabrina sing the song, everybody's
singing with me because I sang Espresso. Then I'm in
the bar and people are coming up to me all night.
They're like, you're Sabrina, aren't you? And it was a
whole thing. Yeah, like well they knew I wasn't the
actual Sabrana, but they're like, you're dressed is Sabrina? Like
(06:20):
this is your costumes.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
It's always a pat on the back when it is
an well understood costume. Yes, it's the worst. Are you
Mike Myers from the nineteen seventies Halloween? No, dude, I'm
just a guy cutting a tree down.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, like questioning everything. And so I also had candy
in my purse, so anytime somebody came up to me,
I'd give him a piece of candy. Here you go, kids,
taste him candy. It probably looked super sketchy, but it
was a clear, clear purse and I made a lot
of people happy. In fact, I had given one to
a bartender. She had got us drinks at the first
bar we went to. We went back to that bar
(06:54):
at the end of the evening to get some mozzarell sticks,
you know, a little snack going home always, and she
ran into us. She's like, honest, that candy me my
whole night, so thank you so much. And I was like,
that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
What a small life.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Well, she was bartending that night, she was working.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
My life sucks so much. If you give me a
Recea's bar, I will love everything.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Dang, you are sassy this week? Are you okay?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
That's how I am?
Speaker 1 (07:16):
No, no, no, no, no no. The ted lasso and then
the donuts and the muffin. I'm just a little checking
in with you. The people that asked me, hey, are
you sassy?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Hey? Is your mental health with it? This is how
I literally have been since birth. That's how I've talked.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
You have a version of this, Yes, this is.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
How you and me just talked on the couches. We
were making fun of each other, eating half donuts.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
We were. But also, I'm just checking in because she
was excited about a piece of I would be excited
you bring me a piece of candy that make my day.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
And also I needed that reminds me I need to
prepare for Halloween now that I'm a homeowner.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Do you think you'll have tricker traders? Uh?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Of course. Really, it's the most involved neighborhood ever.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, I guess that's true. But do they have to
walk up always, like to your driveway to get the de.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
They still will. Yeah, there's I mean there's food trucks
that come to my neighborhood once a week. That's how
organized it is. Do you have an h A, Well,
I mean we're like not in the neighborhood, but they
treat us like we're in the neighborhood, so we don't
not follow any of their rules. Okay, well they have
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
We're just we're not in the hoa.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
So there's a there's a housing development. We brought bought
property that's adjacent to the housing development. But our road
goes to their neighborhood, so we actually use their roads
and they just treat us like we're part of the neighborhood.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
But you do you pay the h oo a.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, we don't have an h o A.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Not to get it is because they're all asking us, hey,
why is your house not brick And we're like, well,
we're not part of the h A. And they go, hey,
why don't you care about your trash cans? And we said,
we're not part of the h o A, but we do.
We always get them on Thursday.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
You always get your trash on Thursdays.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
You put it out on Wednesday, get it on Thursday.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Dang ours is on Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, that's country life.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, you can move to the country. Everything changes, okay.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Except for whenever they don't come get it that one
day man, and everybody's got it bagged up and just
sitting out there. You ever wonder if something doesn't happen
the way it's supposed to, and then just how our
society just works on like it's a cog and a
wheel and everything just keeps rotating and going. If one
thing holds up, everybody's freaking out. Oh oh my gosh,
what do we do with our trash? I was like
dumping them at work?
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Or you did, Yeah, you brought all the trash in
your car, like what however long drive?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
You had one bag and it was scented bag. So
it's not even trust me. I thought about that, and
then I just I go, Baser, We're not gonna get
overrun by trash. And then we finally overcame that and
we go, do you remember trash Gate of twenty twenty four.
We're lucky to have made it out of that.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
What was right now?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
You made up because we couldn't figure out how wire
or whatever they weren't grabbing it. But I guess they
were just so behind or something.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Yeah, that's happened to me a few times too.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
And then there was the one week we forgot to
put it out, and then you have to go an
entire week with a full trash, and so you're barely
using anything. It's actually probably how we should live. Hey,
only one water bottle?
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Oh the well, yeah, you're supposed to use reusable waters.
You're supposed to reusable items instead of stuff that you're
constantly throwing away.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
It was pretty amazing that week we maybe had one
bag of trash. And this conversation has gotten boring.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
How many backs of the trash you have normally though?
I'm just curious ten really?
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Yeah? I mean Amazon cat litter, Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Big old you're not recycle on any level.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Don't tell Lunchbox. I'll be mad at you, See I would.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
They just don't make it that easy.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Fair. All right, Well, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back. We got more to talk about,
all right. So I was in a room with a
bunch of seniors, like seventy plus seniors, not seniors in
high school, and we were talking about their biggest moments
of their life. What were you about to make a comment?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
No, I was going to chime in. I thought you
were at a high school. Then you said, I'm not
talking about a high school.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, I knew I had to specify seniors two different types.
But we were talking about like the biggest moments of
their lifeves that they look back on and really love
to recall and talk about that memory. What the deep Yeah,
well it started as a travel club. I went in
to present on which Doug Kins is, and then we
started talking about all kinds of stuff fun. So what
for you, like if you look at back on your
(11:15):
life right now in this moment. I'm not saying because
you still have forty plus seventy however, long to live.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Forty that would make me like, seventy nine, that's terrible.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Okay, fifty sixty plus.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Thank you this early in the morning. Hey, Ray, you're
probably going to die in your seventies.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Was in math. It's hard. I'm so early.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
That was the case. I've already lived my life.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
You're going to live to over one hundred.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
So, but we're not worried about later. We're worried about
right now in this moment, Morgan, do you remember the
best bits we did?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Hey, Ray, how are you?
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Hey, Morgan, have you found anybody yet?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
All right? All right, zing, I got it, got it, Okay,
appreciate it. Not really anyway back to what we were
originally talking about. If you look back on your life
at this moment in time, what is like your favorite memory,
your biggest life moment where you're like, I'm always gonna remember.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
That going to college just because I was in it's
it doesn't make sense. It's a little counterintuitive, if you will.
But I was in the country. I always lived in
the country, and I would tell my parents, I'm moving
to the city. I'm going to see the skyscrapers. I'm
telling you, and my mom would always say it's crazy.
It's really fast paced in the city. Just be careful.
Boom went to college, immediately went to Chicago. I went
(12:30):
to the really the school that I could go to
that was in the biggest city. So Boom Chicago and
then moved to Texas. Austin did that, and then now
we're in Nashville. But it all started with when I
first went to college and made that move. I was
probably the only person that went out of town out
of like there's an adjacent city to us, northern Michigan. Yeah,
I mean it was me and maybe one other chick
(12:51):
and my brother, but he dropped out. So let's just
say it was me and two other people and that
went out of the town. But then now I live
in the country again, but I work in the city,
so it all works out.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Well, you're still in Nashville. You didn't move back home.
Oh so you know, you're still in your movement, I think.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
But I do live in the country now though.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, but you're near Nashville. Yeah, and you're totally far
from home, so still have evolved.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, there's people that commute New York two hours, so
I'll take my twenty five minute.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Commute Okay, twenty five minutes, got it, and that's really good.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Yours.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Well, I was going to ask you something and then
I lost it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
It was something about my age. It was something about college.
It was something about the city, the country moving.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Where did you go to college?
Speaker 2 (13:31):
What was it called all of that? Nazarene University? You
get to a fact check me, No.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
But I think I've ever heard of that my life.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
It was a private Christian school. It's not very well known.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Okay, all right, bougie.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Well my parents, mate, they wanted us to go to
a Christian school right out of high school, probably to
avoid those keggers.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
What was your college experience like at a Christian private school?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
No drinking. Girls couldn't come into your dorm rooms, you
couldn't want They had no MTV, which at the time
was popular. We had Laguna, Beach Rock and Real World.
Couldn't watch any of that, dang.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
So you didn't really rage and become ray until after college.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And even then I went down to Texas and I
realized you couldn't do well in school and get hammered
every weekend. So I did that for maybe a week
or maybe a month, and I go screw it not
doing that anymore. And I really didn't even drink the
rest of college.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Okay, So you went to that school in college in
Chicago for how long?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Two years or two years and then transferred to Texas
State for two years?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Got it? Okay?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Everything transferred, Well, that's awesome. Yeah, talk about a blessing.
I had a bunch of Christian classes and stuff and
they found a way to transfer it and make it
a history class.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
And why Texas? Was there a reason for that move?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Meta dude in Chicago and he goes, hey, bro, I
heard about this school called Texas State in San Marcos, Texas.
He goes, there's a river that runs through the campus.
Every chick is hot, and it's one hundred degrees every day.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
That's all you needed.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
And he told me, he goes, I'm transferring there. I'm going.
And so then that summer, just randomly, one day I
woke up and I go, I'm going to apply to
that school. Why not? Why not apply to another state?
And so then I kind of like started hinting it
towards my parents. Then I got accepted. Randomly, I go,
oh my god, I applied, you know, And so then
I go Then the ball started rolling and then I
called him up and I go, dude, I'm coming to
Texas State with you. Man.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Did you guys live together or anything?
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yeah, we lived together. We had an apartment and then
after that we lived in other apartments together.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah, that's so fun weird. Now that's part of your story.
We rushed a frat, did you say in the frat?
Speaker 2 (15:24):
And when I tell you I had no money, I
had no money. So yeah, they told us it was
nine hundred dollars and I go, dude, I ain't got
nine hundred dollars. And I had to work twenty four
I had to work three hundred and sixty five days
so that I could then claim in state residency. That
was the only way my parents were to let me
do it.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Wait, you had to work every single day to be
able to not every single day, but I had to
have employment for twelve months, got it.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
So the second I got there, I went applied to
a gas station and got hired and started working there
the next week.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
And you worked there for a year, worked there.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
For a year, and then they tried to get me
on it. Tex State goes, no, no, you don't have
the employment. I was like, here, you go, here are
my records. And then I went back and forth with
the registrar and she ended up going, all right, you
get in state tuition, which was thousands of dollars less money. Yeah,
and that's how I was able to get my parents
to let me do it. Got it well, yeah, me
and my boy. But I worked all the time. So yeah,
I wasn't what was your question, I wasn't partying living together,
(16:12):
the vibe. Oh, the frat. They wanted us to pay
nine hundred dollars and it was like, you have to
be so active, and it just wasn't going to happen.
And I remember I was I didn't even have a
car down there, and I'm just walking down the street.
I walked everywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Was it a walking town?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Not really? But I made it one okay. So I
would get up, I'd have gas station shift at seven.
I would wake up at six and walk. It take
me an hour to get there.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
That's wild, I know. And so and you wanted to
be at this college bad enough that you did all
of this.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Yeah. Yeah. And so then at the frat though, it
just it wasn't gonna work. And I'd remember walking down
the street and one of the frat brothers picked me
up and he was a senior and he goes, hey man,
that was awesome. We had rush and all that, we did,
all that t shirts. Man, the chicks were so hot, right,
And I go, yeah, it was so fun. I go,
hey man, I'd enjoyed the frat man. And I had
to break it to him in that truck there while
(16:59):
he's drive me down the street, he dropped off right
then in there He's like, hey man, get out of
the card. No. He took me to my apartment. That
was it. Probably never saw him again.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
That's funny. He was trying to get to you.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
But they accepted us. What was it, Sigmund knew those
were the jacked ones. It was ah Si Gap. Yeah,
And so they had our rush cards and stuff, and
we just never even went to the school to get them.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
My name's probably still sitting there, Sison.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
I don't think it's still sitting there all these years later.
But and then you graduated from there, Yep, the show came.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Not right away. I did sales and then I had
an internship and then a couple years later met Bones
were in the same building. Okay, anything can happen when
you get in a building.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
New building here, but yeah, it all started with that
initial boom. I gotta get out of here. So yeah,
going to college, I mean that was That's a.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Good one day and night. I just learned a lot
about you in this moment. You. I didn't know you
went to a private coach at all.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I've never would have, but my parents made it a
requirement because we went. We played baseball. Were we major
league baseball players? No? Were we terrible baseball players? No,
we're like middle But you played in college. Yeah, so
I got caught from the team. But so we went
to these colleges.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I wasn't gonna make you say that.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
We go to these colleges in Michigan. It's just a
straight party. I mean we're touring these things and kids
are drinking, coaches are swearing and stuff. And my parents
are they My parents are super religious, total Christians. I
mean I'm a Christian too, but maybe not that strict,
and so they were totally against that. And so right
away then it's oh, we're going to a Christian school.
(18:28):
So we went to one, checked out one and maybe Indiana.
There were other ones and then we saw the one
in Chicago, and they took us on a tour and
we went on buses, got into Chicago and all you
hear is horns, hawk and I go, and they showed
you there's a train that goes into Chicago. I go,
that's my school.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
This is where. That's so funny, okay, right? The Christian
college graduate, well, half college Christian college graduate, yep, half year.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
I just couldn't. I couldn't do it anymore.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
That's fair.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Girls can only come over on Wednesday nights for one hour.
How are you supposed to meet your future?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
You didn't even meet her in Texas though either true, Hey,
but at least you met her. Yeah, you did better
than I did, So it's okay.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I did jump around mine.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
I think would be also similar moving to Nashville when
I finally like when I graduated college and was in
Witchtuff for a little bit and then I got the
job in Nashville and decided I don't know anybody, I
don't even know the city, but I'm going anyway.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
That was a life change, Like both of our moments
had to do with getting in a car and saying.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
I'm getting the hell out of here.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Like a country love story, like a country song.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
We are walking country songs. That's true. If I wanted
to signify like one super cool moment though that's so
specific though, it'd be when we all were on stage
accepting our CMA award and we were all like there
together and that whole night. That was one of my
favorite moments.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
You know, we can recreate that when we accept the
award in two weeks.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
It's about to happen again, which I'm even more excited
about because now I'm gonna have two times that memory.
Was that not such a cool moment?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
It's dope, But I'm pretty sure we had to wake
up the next morning in like six hours? Was it awesome? Yes?
But being part of this NonStop cycle, I mean I
think I can.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Yeah, let's not put that on it.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
I got like three hours of sleep, but yes, that
we were all dressed.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Up, Yeah, and we all like that was hi. It
was just a cool, oudest moment. Okay, those are our things. Also,
what is something you haven't been good at lately? Just
not good? It could be the most mediocre thing, whatever,
Just something you haven't been good at lately. Then maybe
you used to.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Be being patient with a like listening. I definitely have
to work on it because it's I've found where my
wife will want to, like she'll show me something on
her phone or she'll tell me a story. I need
to listen. You can't. I don't. I have So it's
like your phone's there and it's so easy to just
send a text while they're talking, but you could miss
(20:59):
a part of that story that's super important and special
and exciting, and it also makes the person feel like
they're worthless. Probably, So yeah, I'll come in and I'm
on my phone. You know, I'm always posting. You know,
I'm doing this for work, doing this, So I'm working
on it. I need to be in the moment hear
the story. Phones are great and stuff like that. But yeah,
you need to like listen to stories. You need to
(21:20):
be patient.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Those are kind of a few different things that you're
putting into one. But I see you, you did something
happen that caused you feel that way, or you just
kind of recognize down here.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
No, just in my head, it just seems like sometimes
we're not actually how did your day go? Like are
we listening to how did their day go? Can we
repeat back to them what they just said. Most people
probably can't and I can't most of the time. So
that's what I'm trying to work on. So I've been
just bad at it.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
That's very introspective of you, and it's very proud and.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
It's like we're going to the new building and stuff.
So it's kind of twice the workload. It not for
lunch for everybody else, so it is a lot more.
And I mean sometimes I'll just tell my wife. I'll
be like, hey, I'm seeing ghosts, which means like it's
a little crazy right now.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
That's your frame for her that she knows what's going on.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah, that I mean I'm like light headed, like I'm
starting to see things, like I think I'm going crazy.
But yeah, I've never been great at like totally being
all in on a conversation. So I'm working work in progress.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
That's really good, seriously, really introspective of you.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
I'm very proud like you and me, I'm all in
on this combo.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, you're doing great. You haven't been on your phone once.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
I'm shaking though.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
I mean, you have looked at the board a few times,
but that's normal.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Oh yeah, you haven't liked the yeah, with a reaction.
I like to just do math on the board and
see count out spot blocks.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
You do well. Mine was not as like uh deep
deep deep, mind's more surface level. But I have not listen.
I'm a clean freak, right. You probably picked up on that,
like I keep everything super clean around me, and I
have not had won the desire or even the want
to like clean my house lately. And it's not even
a mess. It's just like my no, like genuinely like
(22:55):
vacuum all the time. You have to vacuum like every
other day. You gotta wipe down counter all the time.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
What is your address? I'm sending over a Molli Maiden.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Apparently, like I've just not been feeling it lately. It's
been hard to like keep up. And I think to
your point of like changing studios, there's a lot going
on and also trying to like make sure I'm out
and doing stuff and being active in my life and
keeping up with also working out and also being dog
mom and also trying to date and like live a
life that the thing that has been on the back
(23:26):
burner lately is keeping my house like spit spot clean.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
I will say this, the over drinking on a Saturday night,
I am terrible at because and then the wasting of
a Sunday, that's what it's. Then next thing, you know,
your house isn't clean on Monday. I found that out
and I'm so then on now on Saturday nights, I'm like, hey, Sonny,
you cut off this drink and right now you hear me.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Also, you can make sure you have a not wasteful Sunday,
so then you go into the week better. It is
true though, Yes, yes, when you're hungover on a Sunday
it's the worst.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Do not have that extra drink. And it especially with
the cleaning, because the last thing you want to drink
do hungover is clean.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Oh yeah, that's so true.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
So I found that one last drink. You know what,
sometimes if it's already open, just pour it in the
sink and you'll thank yourself the next day when the
house is spit spot clean. You like, yeah, yeah, I
was listening to you.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
That's mine. I get also like going back to our
taking care of the yard. I don't I'm not going
to pay for a cleaning service because I can do it.
I'm very capable. I'm just like it's low on the
totem pole of my priorities lately.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
They're affordable. I've heard our mother in law swears by it.
Really they come by, do a deep clean, go into
her house. I rave about it every time.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
I'm like, oh my gosh, where do you get that
time to clean this place?
Speaker 2 (24:48):
She's like, I have a cleaning person. Shut up.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
You know, maybe I'll get to that point in my life.
But for an how I feel like I'm very able
bodied and I have the time. I just got to
make it a priority kind.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Of, and it is. Let's be real, Cleaning is kind
except for doing the dishes and cleaning a toilet, vacuuming
and scrubbing counters is therapeutic in a way. It's kind.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
But you are right. I hate cleaning a bathroom. I
hate cleaning a bathroom. It's the worst. I don't know why.
It's not like they're super dirty. I just like don't
like cleaning them.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Just growing up, I think that was always the worst,
the doing the dishes. Whenever you it was me and
my brother and sister, so I think we had a
drawing or something like you would always just be assigned
to you. The worst was the bathrooms and the doing
of the dishes.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Trauma from Trump.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Yeah, yeah, it came back.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Okay, we're gonna take a quick break, will be her back, okay, Raymondo.
This is where we're gonna admit something else to What
useless thing do you spend money on that you really
wish you didn't?
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Oh well, I mean that's obvious.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
But is yours gambling?
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah? I was gonna say, I hope we don't have
a sponsor thing running well, but also someone's run that
say responsible gambling.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Responsible, We'll choose another one because everybody knows about your
gambling habit. Habits do you have?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
And I can think real here? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, so mine is that anytime I order takeout for
like delivery, I get so mad at myself that I'm
paying ten extra dollars one for taking out food and
two for it being delivered to my house. Like I'm
so lazy, I can't go pick it up and in two.
Like the charges on Uber eats or you know, door
dash or whatever, they're so high. Every time I look
at it. Something that would originally be ten dollars, no,
(26:22):
like twenty five, I'm like, why am I doing this
to myself? I get so angry every time, and yet
I still do it maybe once a week, but I
still hate that once a week moment, and I like,
look at myself and rejection. I need to reject myself.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, I'm gonna say, were you done? Yeah, I'm done
fast food. The reason we get it is because it's fast,
but there are so many other better options out there.
And it's typically because we had that extra drink on
a Saturday night, so we don't go get groceries on
a Sunday, and so then you hit a fast food
on a Monday. So for me, if I fast food's
(26:55):
great in the moment, but you're like, I could eat
in so much better at that meal. And was it amazing?
I mean, was it good? Yeah? Was it amazing though
probably not? Was it good though it was? Yeah? It
was good.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
It is always good In that moment, you're like, I
really like my choice here, and like an hour later,
you're like, I don't like my choices anymore.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
And the reason is because your body doesn't burn on
that stuff very well and very efficiently. Can you can
tell if I eat a healthy meal bas or Boom
cooks up healthy lunch. Next thing you know, Boom, I'm
watering the grass, I'm going for a run doing It's
just the food. It's the fuel you get fast food. Up.
I'm done for the day. But what's on the TV
because I'm not moving for four hours.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Yeah, you're feeding into all the badness that comes with that.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
So that's fine.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
No, those are both good.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
And I just had a buff this morning, So put
that in the same category you did.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
We were that was a muffin. I didn't include that,
like the story behind the muffin. When I was I
had posted a story of us talking about donut.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
This is a different even food I'm talking about. I
had a side muffin. I cheated on the donut.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
I know. But what's so funny is like, let me
give you this situation. So Ray and I yesterday some
PROD donuts to the studio. Ray and I sitting there
in front of the donuts and he's like, we don't
really need this. I'm like, yeah, we're right, but like
I'm gonna have a half a one. He's like, Okay,
give me that other half. This is how it started.
So I give him the other half. We both eat
it and like it was really good. Read it comes
(28:12):
over maybe two minutes maybe and he's like, you want
to split that other one. It's the same donut, Okay,
like we had. We did not try two different donuts.
They're both glazed. He comes over, he's like, you split it.
I'm like, Ray, this defeated the purpose of us splitting
in the first place, exactly, so, but we split it again.
So we basically had one whole donut each.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
And originally though it was a good thought to say, hey,
let's just do a half.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Yeah, it was a great thought to start, and then
we just escalated from there. But then, okay, so we
have each of our individual donuts and then I come
out thirty minutes later and raise on like his third
or four donut, And I was like, Ray, you're the
one who told me earlier that we didn't need these,
so so what's happening here?
Speaker 2 (28:53):
But I no, no, no, I explained it to you. I
was rage eating because I had a horrible morning. I
was doing a lot of stuff like trying to clean programming.
Why is this really born to talk about? But I
told you that I was I needed that I needed
a damn donut.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Okay, yeah, but you you ended up spiraling, like spiraling,
and this all came from Ray. I was never shaming Ray.
He could have what every hee's, He could eat whatever
he wants. It's actually entertaining to me to watch the
things that Rays throughout the day, very entertaining. But I
was like, Ray, you literally looked at me dead in
the eyes at eight am this morning and said we
don't need this, and then you perceeded to spiral.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
It totally went against what I originally had said.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
So I wanted to share that was funny. It was
a really funny moment.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Yet so you're okay, so you're saying we each had
half a donut, then we each had another half a
donut S, which is a whole donut. So we should
have originally.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
In our own donuts. Yes, but but so many people
were like, well, at least you gotta try to I'm like, no, no, no,
it was the same donut, like we didn't one wasn't chocolate,
one wasn't glades, Like they were both glazes the same doughnut. Yeah,
we dumb, We dumb. It's fine, we were. We were.
It was a long day yesterday, So I guess, okay,
I want to talk to you about these There's a
girl on TikTok saying if a guy does one through
(30:05):
three of these red flags, it'll be bad news. Don't
date them, kay, And I'm curious guys perspective, Like, I
don't know that I agree with all these I just
found this on TikTok Okay, if he can't keep his
place decently clean.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, it's gonna be like that for life.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
And oh, guys are so gross with the beer and
the pizza. That stuff can get smelly fast.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
And y'all's beards in your hair.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Yeah, I gotta actually talk to my dad on that one.
My parents stayed for a weekend. Dad left his like
beard stuff in the stick pops. What does mom let
you get away with? We are a clean household around here, dude,
I'm like laying it down on them. It is funny, though,
parents staying at my house they ask it, Hey, is
it okay if I use his cup? I'm like, you're
my parents asking me if it's okay if you can
do something. That was an awesome reversal. That was great.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Were you like, yeah, like it's you know, make yourself
at home or were you just like no, yeah, you
have to ask me every time?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Oh? They asked me about like a handful of things,
and every time it was equally awesome.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Really yeah, so now you're gonna make them keep asking you.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Yeah, you guys can take the car. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah,
you guys are good. Go to stay hot however long
you want, taking seven year old pair.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
And a mom Oh, that's fun. Okay. If he starts
talking about your body right off the.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Bat, uh, if he compliments it, what's wrong with that?
I think I've been out of the game for a minute,
but I think that might have been my first go
to compliment.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
You went up to Bay and we're like, nice.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Body, I love what your rockin.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Bayser, poor Bay. She's like, dang, what did I do?
What did I do?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I think she got really mad at me one time
because I complimented. We were at the bar and I
was I said, this isn't probably word for word what
I said, but it was not. I would never say
it now, guys, I have changed. I'm such a mature man.
I think I said I said it in a way funnier,
but I'm just telling you the gist of it, something
like I can't believe you didn't serve us better or
faster with my chick's big old chest.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
No, you did.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
I said it a little bit better than that, but
and she got so mad at me. But that was
really when we first met at Paradise Park and I
said that.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
That's funny, and somehow you still manage.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
But I'm glad she did that because then I realized,
you don't say stuff like that. That's not funny.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Okay, see, okay, don't comment body early on, we just
talked out of Ray's answer originally, and I would agree
with that.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Like, if a guy's coming out like you can comment
and be like you're really pretty, you're beautiful, like whatever.
But if you're constantly sitting there just like everything is about,
I'm gonna know that the one thing you're going after
is sex.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Yeah, you know, I didn't know he said that word.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Well, I didn't know how to you know, bleep whatever,
leave it in there. Okay. If he has one or
more girl best friends.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Uh yeah, I have no way. I mean, that makes
total sense.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Hey, I'm asking from a dude's perspective, but I'm.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Telling you now, I have tons of girl best friends.
But it's because we've met him through marriage and they're
friends of all.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, and that makes sense. But I think this girl
is saying, like originally, if she he by himself has
multiple like girl best friends.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah yeah, unless it's you're in the same town where
he grew up, then that would make sense. You're gonna
have some of those townies that you're best SI's with.
So there's exceptions to the rule. But I would say
then that means he hooks up a lot, He's got
a lot of hanger ons, maybe has some money, he's
got a hold.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Where did the money park come into that.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
There's this guy I follow. I'm not saying his name,
but he has ten girls that are his best friend
and I mean he has to just be hooking up
all the time. I would never date the dude. I'm
not into dudes. I'm married. But I'm saying I look
at it, and if a girl saw him hanging out
with ten girls, he's never with a guy. Yeah. So,
and he's still friends with my wife and hey baby,
(33:55):
he's so friendly and nice.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Hey baby's like that kind of guy.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Yeah. So sometimes maybe the personality, but say, hey, maybe
another big event this Saturday night, will love for you
and your husband to come. But he has he's always
with ten hanger ons, and so I would say undateable.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Yeah, that's the thing I do. There are circumstances if
if they are involved, and maybe they just talk so often,
but they're not like hanging out all the time.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
No, No, there's versions they're doing uh they're doing pool parties,
they do white parties, they do uh Gatsby parties all
the time.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Yeah. Yeah, there's there's exceptions, but I think few and
far between for sure. If they follow a bunch of
naked some suit girls on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Yeah, I learned early on, and that's not good. You
learned that lison No from Buddies, got it?
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Okay? Yeah, not a good one. Definitely. Definitely a guy
who's like he's he's weighing all his options all the time,
is what he's doing. Yeah, And if that's the follow.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Up, I mean maybe you know, he looks at a
Bikuina photo and it puts his mind in a good
place when he's working on the tractor or something.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
You know, that's a really weird perspective that I did need.
But sure, we'll roll with it. If you're not one
hundred percent clear on their intentions with you, they aren't
one hundred percent about you.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Uh, you got to state that your stance on life
the first time you meet them. That's a weird one.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
I doubinate this is within the first Like this could
all fall within the first week or so or a
couple of weeks of dating.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
I never intended to get married, got married. I never
intended to have kids. Maybe it's something to have kids.
So I don't think it needs to be specifically like
in a document. Hey, I'm gonna send you over a
DOCU sign These are my intentions.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Okay, that's a song.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
These are my intentions.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Oh wait, that's not what's was to sing anymore?
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Is it our kellyer?
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Did think that one is? These? No, we're thinking of
these are my confessions. Usher are still clear. We're still
clear with Usher. Dang, I can't keep up anymore. Okay,
if you have to com I think this is an
easy one. If you have to compromise your morals, boundaries,
values when you're around him or any of his people. Yes,
I think that's an obvious red flag.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
If they don't don't talk about God, I mean that's
probably not gonna work.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
If they drink or do drugs or party all the time.
Basically they look forward to the weekend.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Looking forward to the weekend, There is nothing wrong with that.
We love a good Friday at the household. The drugs
can't see that leading to a positive outcome. The drinking
one or two times is fine. You want somebody that
loves the weekends, though the weekends are words that we will.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Shouldn't you be living for every day, not just living
for the weekends.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
We work so damn hard. I want my weekends.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
Well, you can have your weekends, I want them, But
shouldn't you also live during the days too? Are the
weekdays I do you get a little bit.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
You're not gonna you don't get to do everything you
want to do on the weekdays, But on the weekends,
damn if I don't do everything I want to do.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
You're here the example of living for the weekend, But
that I think the look forward to the weekend part
is not great. But I do like if they are
drinking every single day or drugs are heavily involved, yet
that's a flag.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Drinking daily Is that a thing?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Yeah, you'd be surprised. I mean people do often. I
think it's also different, like if you're going hard every
single day, that's also really intensity party all the time.
Like if you're having a casual drink at dinner each
day or whatever, that's also different. Somebody began exceptions.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
And maybe with their job they can pull off going
out on a Tuesday night. I respect that, we just
can't with ours.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
I do. I'll cut on a Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
That's ballsy.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
I mean I still have, but they're like it's like
dinners or I'm going on a date or going to
a concert. They're not like, I'm not going to go raged.
I mean literally last night I had friends that went
out as like absolutely not, I'm not doing this tonight.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
And also say you go out on a Tuesday, what
it for yourself? What is your curfew?
Speaker 1 (37:42):
I mean, ideally I'm home and in bed by eleven
at the latest.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Yeah, when I was singles, I think I would always
say ten was the absolute latest.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
But see things start getting started at like seven, eight o'clock.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
I know That's why it was tough then.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
It'd only give you two hours. So I try at
least have a little bit of a threshold. If I'm
in bed eleven, I get at least a couple hours
of sleep, Yes, and I can run, but that might
get earlier. As I get older, road hard, hung up. Well, yes,
if they blow up on you or ignore you when
you have a disagreement, uh.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
It's gonna really help you. Guys get down to each
other's personalities and figure things out. I wouldn't say it
blow up. It's terrible, but is it healthy. No, But
if you really need somebody in that moment to just
say no, that's not how you're gonna treat me, You're
gonna remember them telling you no in your face a
little bit of a blow up more than hey, I
really don't like how you talk to me like that.
(38:36):
Sometimes you need those You put that in.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
A baby for it. Sorry, that wasn't a bait to say, like, hey,
I don't need you talk like you made that? Oh
my goodness, right, okay.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Honest say, there's nothing wrong with the blow up.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
No, this is where we disagree because I think you
can communicate especially in the early phases of dating. You
can communicate super easily how you feel, what you feel
everything without yelling. If you don't have yet, like anger
management issues, yeah, I think it's different as the relationship
progresses and if like you get really passionate. But a
(39:08):
blow up is like you so angry and you throwing
things and like, oh no, no.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Sorry, I actually misunderstood that. So like when I would
blow up, I would just leave.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
You're like, okay, I got I need space.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
Yeah, So I would just then walk out. Sometimes I
come back to the radio studio. Sometimes I just go
for I just leave the bar be like okay, I'm
I'm over this conversation. I just leave. So, to me,
that was a blow up. You're saying like throwing crap.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
I mean, yeah, like a blow up is like yelling
and intense.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Like, yeah, I'm fine with the yelling, but yeah, the
throwing of things is probably never healthy. No, I don't.
Our neighbors upstairs used to throw stuff. It was so
annoying every time that, Like, guys, can you not have
a fight or a discussion where you don't throw a
glass that breaks every time and you hear it all?
Speaker 1 (39:49):
Yeah, see not good.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Don't hear that anymore in the country, of course, not.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Because you don't have any neighbors.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
Okay, Well there's some there's some red flags. I think
she's right. I mean, I feel like most of these
are a yes for me. As far as red flags,
I don't listen. Dating just goes back to like, just
be a decent human being, communicate what you want, like
be open about who you are, and like you'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I always viewed as this, jobs tend to suck, ours
were blest. Is fine. But the dating you're you're choosing
to do that, it should be a blast. How easy
is it to laugh, hook up and have a couple
of drinks. It's the easiest thing in the world.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
Okay, dating, yes is easy. We're relationships are hard.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Then that's one step up. Yes, then you're a little
bit more committed. It still should be super fun. If not,
you can just walk away, walk out of it. I've
always been of the mind it needs to be a blast.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Yeah, you should be having fun. If at any point
in time you're like this isn't for me, yeah, you
should leave for sure. Yeah I'm with you. That was
a good one. Yeah, good call. We did it. Okay,
we're ending this on best Bar. And now this came
from Libby and Tennessee. Instead putting it in the question,
we're putting it here.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
Well, I'm partial. I go Gars, but give me brew
House just because the TV situation. If you're a guy
and if you're a chick to like sports, or you're
a check that your guy like sports. Brew House because
it's not one of the named bars. It's on Broadway
and the TV system is amazing. They'll put the sound on.
They have any beer you could imagine. I'm just a
(41:26):
one beer guy, but they have it. All the bartenders.
There's a whole list of them. But we met everyone,
friends with all of them. Now they've all gone on
and now have families and stuff. Now, yeah, they're the
best bartenders because it's not that they don't deal with
the tourists.
Speaker 1 (41:43):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
Yep, it's the big name bars. A lot of tourists there.
And then Midtown. You and me love Mintown. You can
name one from here.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
I do love Midtown, but that's actually not where I
was going. I was going East Nashville. One of my
favorite bars. It's a newer bars called Ernie's and it
is amazing. They have games. They have darts in pool
in a toad game, and the drinks are relatively cheap
and it's like a lodge but also a dive bar.
Speaker 2 (42:07):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (42:09):
I love a good lodge.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
I'm telling you would love this place.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
Right. Okay, yeah, I listened.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
I heard you say that, So there we go. If
you stayed long enough, then you get the insider scoop.
I will say that one time, and one time only
because I don't want people to take it.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
Over, because they will the will and then there'll be
a line out the door and we'll say, why is
it like this? Oh that's right cause on Best Bits
we tell you guys the bars to go to. People
go to it and the word spreads.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
It's so true. Okay, we're jumping out of here. Thanks
for coming on.
Speaker 2 (42:35):
That was a blast. I think we got deep. There
was no this maybe.
Speaker 1 (42:39):
The deepest you've ever been on Best Bits.
Speaker 2 (42:41):
There was no what is it you always say that
I do to you? Give you no roasting? Wow?
Speaker 1 (42:46):
You did ask me though yesterday if you could roast
me and I said no.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
So we're growing up.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
We are growing up. Tell the people where they can
find you.

But then I bring in a sports podcast.
Speaker 2 (43:16):

Girl Morgan to submit your listener questions for next week's episode.
The Best Bits of the Week with Morgan, Part one
behind a scene with a member of the show. What's Up, everybody?
Welcome to the Best Fits. I'm joined by Ray Moondo.
This weekends. We are recording this from the glassroom of
our new studios, and it feels weird.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yeah, it's a little dangerous because you always want to know.
Am I on the air? Are we We wouldn't be
on the air though, because it's the weekend. Stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, okay, thank you for that, right, really insightful stuff.
We've never recorded from the classroom before, but this feels
appropriate because Ray likes to look at the board. Every
time I had him in the studio, he would get
anxious not being able to see the monitors in the board.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Where do I put my hands?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That kind of thing. Yeah, okay, well I need an
update on House Live, Country Live. Give me everything that's
going on over there.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Geez, you always want something big and bold. It's really pretty. Uh.
Country life is what it is. It doesn't change. That's
what I love about it.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah, but there has to be there been things that
are like coming up where you're like, ooh, I really
like this. No, I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Uh. Our grass died. Oh no, that's not too embarrassing.
And also we were kind of like a faux grass
because it was green with all the neighbors and when
the frost hit, ours was the only lawn that died, right,
And so then we hit up our guy. We go, hey, man,
how much is it going to cost a little bit
out of the price range? And he goes, yeah, what
you guys had was crap grass. And I go, are
(01:26):
you meaning crab grass or are you literally calling my
lawn crap?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
And which one was it?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
And where am I going to come up with this money?
So yeah, for now, we're good with dead grass.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
So it just got brown lawn living in the country
with some brown brown grass.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It was a cold snap, that's what did it.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, but we had it for like a day.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
That's all it takes.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Apparently when you have crap grass, crap grass, I have
crab grass.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
And then I sent the screenshot to my father in
law because Laura goes, hey, send it to me. I'll
send it to my dad and we'll just see what
we need to do. And we did it, AND's like,
what he's calling our lawn crap? I guess I don't know,
I don't know how to do fertilizer and stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I was gonna say, he nobody's put it in, right,
It just came from whatever was there before.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
We put some minor stuff. Oh yeah, it's not We
didn't obviously we didn't put sowd. That would be impossible.
We probably didn't even really do two advanced. I mean
maybe a little iron, a little bit of pellets here,
a little bit of grass there. But maybe there's something
else we got to put on. I bet a good
TikTok video and me and beaz Aer on a Saturday
could knock it out.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
That's probably true. But listen, if there is one thing
that I have learned about being a homeowner is that
taking care of your yard is a lot of freaking work,
and you have to do it every season.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But you know what Susan is, what it's called season.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
But Susan works too, thank.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
You, and uh, it's a labor of love. But also,
do you not feel the best after you water your trees,
after you're in your yard? Think about it. It sucks.
Maybe for an hour you have to instead of watching
television or playing on TikTok, you have to go water.
But afterwards, that might be the best I feel out
of the entire day.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I'm with you. I love taking care of my lawn
and stuff. But what I can tell you over the
course of time is that it becomes more of a chore,
and then the constant need to fertilize and reseed and
replant and all the time. It's all the time. It
never ends. So you think you're like, oh, I watered
my grass, I mowed everything. It looks beautiful. You could
(03:21):
be four weeks from them and be like, dang, it's
all gone.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
But also it does end. What if you get high
enough in your career where you can then pay someone
to mow your grass, pay someone, pay a watering system
to water your trees, then it is all done and
then you can retire.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
That's true, but I don't know. I'm weird about I'm
weird about spending money on things that I know I
can do myself.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Hmm. Yeah, that's saying. I'm a guy and I like
to lift things. Yeah, just just how we were built.
I will never pay a mover. Actually I did.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Media immedia that.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
My point is this, there's those apps right task rab
It and stuff where you can hire somebody because Laura's
not strong enough to lift stuff, and there were TVs
and fridges. What else did I get that might have
been it? And no, it was The other stuff is
a table and it really doesn't have a name. There
was another like a glass box. It was Jack Daniels
(04:21):
that I can put cool NFL helmets on that we
got from the old studio.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I lifted it all by myself. I probably should have
hired somebody or all your friends at this age you're working. Yeah,
they don't have free time in the middle of the
day to help you lift something. I'm like, I'm not
gonna get on an app when I can lift this
it might be I mean, I was sweating. It was insane.
Laura sees me in the bird cam. She goes, what
were you doing? You looked like you were lifting a
(04:44):
dead body. Well, probly our newa that's our new TV stand.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
You know, I do agree with you, But that's how
I broke my TV one time. Ry is when I
tried to lift it myself and it just came crashing
down because as soon as I finally got it off
the TV stand, it was like we all just tilted
over together. Yeah, that's how you break stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
There was one from the old studio and I talked
to Scoop about it. I go, dude, it wasn't even
a smart TV, and it makes sense. It was probably
ten years old. It's the one that had the blacked
out screen, so it's worthless. I'd end up taking it
to the dump. It was so heavy and it was
awkwardly heavy, and so it's one of those where you're
you think you can lift it, but that's what it is.
It weighs you in different ways and yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, Like it's really misconceiving where you're like standing there
and you're like, yeah, I got it, and then it's like, oh,
everybody's tells me over yep, exactly. Okay, well again I
say the things that you can't do yourself, these these
are things that you have can do by yourself exact. Yeah,
but you know, accept help where you can't. Maybe in
those well, I did get a fulfill my dreams of
(05:46):
being a pop star.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Ray, did I see this of you as Sabrina Carpenter? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I did, But you want to know why I actually
got to like fulfill my dreams of being the pop star,
not just dressing.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Up as her not really just kidding place that's rude.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
That's rude. Halloween is me up? So I was dressed
as a Sabrina carpenter and we went to a karaoke bar,
and not only did I sing her song, so like
I go on stage as Sabrina sing the song, everybody's
singing with me because I sang Espresso. Then I'm in
the bar and people are coming up to me all night.
They're like, you're Sabrina, aren't you? And it was a
whole thing. Yeah, like well they knew I wasn't the
actual Sabrana, but they're like, you're dressed is Sabrina? Like
(06:20):
this is your costumes.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
It's always a pat on the back when it is
an well understood costume. Yes, it's the worst. Are you
Mike Myers from the nineteen seventies Halloween? No, dude, I'm
just a guy cutting a tree down.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah, like questioning everything. And so I also had candy
in my purse, so anytime somebody came up to me,
I'd give him a piece of candy. Here you go, kids,
taste him candy. It probably looked super sketchy, but it
was a clear, clear purse and I made a lot
of people happy. In fact, I had given one to
a bartender. She had got us drinks at the first
bar we went to. We went back to that bar
(06:54):
at the end of the evening to get some mozzarell sticks,
you know, a little snack going home always, and she
ran into us. She's like, honest, that candy me my
whole night, so thank you so much. And I was like,
that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
What a small life.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Well, she was bartending that night, she was working.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
My life sucks so much. If you give me a
Recea's bar, I will love everything.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Dang, you are sassy this week? Are you okay?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
That's how I am?
Speaker 1 (07:16):
No, no, no, no, no no. The ted lasso and then
the donuts and the muffin. I'm just a little checking
in with you. The people that asked me, hey, are
you sassy?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Hey? Is your mental health with it? This is how
I literally have been since birth. That's how I've talked.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
You have a version of this, Yes, this is.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
How you and me just talked on the couches. We
were making fun of each other, eating half donuts.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
We were. But also, I'm just checking in because she
was excited about a piece of I would be excited
you bring me a piece of candy that make my day.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
And also I needed that reminds me I need to
prepare for Halloween now that I'm a homeowner.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Do you think you'll have tricker traders? Uh?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Of course. Really, it's the most involved neighborhood ever.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, I guess that's true. But do they have to
walk up always, like to your driveway to get the de.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
They still will. Yeah, there's I mean there's food trucks
that come to my neighborhood once a week. That's how
organized it is. Do you have an h A, Well,
I mean we're like not in the neighborhood, but they
treat us like we're in the neighborhood, so we don't
not follow any of their rules. Okay, well they have
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
We're just we're not in the hoa.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
So there's a there's a housing development. We brought bought
property that's adjacent to the housing development. But our road
goes to their neighborhood, so we actually use their roads
and they just treat us like we're part of the neighborhood.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
But you do you pay the h oo a.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, we don't have an h o A.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Not to get it is because they're all asking us, hey,
why is your house not brick And we're like, well,
we're not part of the h A. And they go, hey,
why don't you care about your trash cans? And we said,
we're not part of the h o A, but we do.
We always get them on Thursday.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
You always get your trash on Thursdays.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
You put it out on Wednesday, get it on Thursday.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Dang ours is on Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, that's country life.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, you can move to the country. Everything changes, okay.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Except for whenever they don't come get it that one
day man, and everybody's got it bagged up and just
sitting out there. You ever wonder if something doesn't happen
the way it's supposed to, and then just how our
society just works on like it's a cog and a
wheel and everything just keeps rotating and going. If one
thing holds up, everybody's freaking out. Oh oh my gosh,
what do we do with our trash? I was like
dumping them at work?
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Or you did, Yeah, you brought all the trash in
your car, like what however long drive?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
You had one bag and it was scented bag. So
it's not even trust me. I thought about that, and
then I just I go, Baser, We're not gonna get
overrun by trash. And then we finally overcame that and
we go, do you remember trash Gate of twenty twenty four.
We're lucky to have made it out of that.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
What was right now?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
You made up because we couldn't figure out how wire
or whatever they weren't grabbing it. But I guess they
were just so behind or something.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Yeah, that's happened to me a few times too.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
And then there was the one week we forgot to
put it out, and then you have to go an
entire week with a full trash, and so you're barely
using anything. It's actually probably how we should live. Hey,
only one water bottle?
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Oh the well, yeah, you're supposed to use reusable waters.
You're supposed to reusable items instead of stuff that you're
constantly throwing away.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
It was pretty amazing that week we maybe had one
bag of trash. And this conversation has gotten boring.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
How many backs of the trash you have normally though?
I'm just curious ten really?
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Yeah? I mean Amazon cat litter, Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Big old you're not recycle on any level.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Don't tell Lunchbox. I'll be mad at you, See I would.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
They just don't make it that easy.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Fair. All right, Well, we're gonna take a quick break.
We'll be right back. We got more to talk about,
all right. So I was in a room with a
bunch of seniors, like seventy plus seniors, not seniors in
high school, and we were talking about their biggest moments
of their life. What were you about to make a comment?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
No, I was going to chime in. I thought you
were at a high school. Then you said, I'm not
talking about a high school.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, I knew I had to specify seniors two different types.
But we were talking about like the biggest moments of
their lifeves that they look back on and really love
to recall and talk about that memory. What the deep Yeah,
well it started as a travel club. I went in
to present on which Doug Kins is, and then we
started talking about all kinds of stuff fun. So what
for you, like if you look at back on your
(11:15):
life right now in this moment. I'm not saying because
you still have forty plus seventy however, long to live.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Forty that would make me like, seventy nine, that's terrible.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Okay, fifty sixty plus.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Thank you this early in the morning. Hey, Ray, you're
probably going to die in your seventies.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Was in math. It's hard. I'm so early.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
That was the case. I've already lived my life.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
You're going to live to over one hundred.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
So, but we're not worried about later. We're worried about
right now in this moment, Morgan, do you remember the
best bits we did?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Hey, Ray, how are you?
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Hey, Morgan, have you found anybody yet?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
All right? All right, zing, I got it, got it, Okay,
appreciate it. Not really anyway back to what we were
originally talking about. If you look back on your life
at this moment in time, what is like your favorite memory,
your biggest life moment where you're like, I'm always gonna remember.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
That going to college just because I was in it's
it doesn't make sense. It's a little counterintuitive, if you will.
But I was in the country. I always lived in
the country, and I would tell my parents, I'm moving
to the city. I'm going to see the skyscrapers. I'm
telling you, and my mom would always say it's crazy.
It's really fast paced in the city. Just be careful.
Boom went to college, immediately went to Chicago. I went
(12:30):
to the really the school that I could go to
that was in the biggest city. So Boom Chicago and
then moved to Texas. Austin did that, and then now
we're in Nashville. But it all started with when I
first went to college and made that move. I was
probably the only person that went out of town out
of like there's an adjacent city to us, northern Michigan. Yeah,
I mean it was me and maybe one other chick
(12:51):
and my brother, but he dropped out. So let's just
say it was me and two other people and that
went out of the town. But then now I live
in the country again, but I work in the city,
so it all works out.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Well, you're still in Nashville. You didn't move back home.
Oh so you know, you're still in your movement, I think.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
But I do live in the country now though.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, but you're near Nashville. Yeah, and you're totally far
from home, so still have evolved.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, there's people that commute New York two hours, so
I'll take my twenty five minute.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Commute Okay, twenty five minutes, got it, and that's really good.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Yours.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Well, I was going to ask you something and then
I lost it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
It was something about my age. It was something about college.
It was something about the city, the country moving.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Where did you go to college?
Speaker 2 (13:31):
What was it called all of that? Nazarene University? You
get to a fact check me, No.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
But I think I've ever heard of that my life.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
It was a private Christian school. It's not very well known.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Okay, all right, bougie.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Well my parents, mate, they wanted us to go to
a Christian school right out of high school, probably to
avoid those keggers.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
What was your college experience like at a Christian private school?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
No drinking. Girls couldn't come into your dorm rooms, you
couldn't want They had no MTV, which at the time
was popular. We had Laguna, Beach Rock and Real World.
Couldn't watch any of that, dang.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
So you didn't really rage and become ray until after college.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And even then I went down to Texas and I
realized you couldn't do well in school and get hammered
every weekend. So I did that for maybe a week
or maybe a month, and I go screw it not
doing that anymore. And I really didn't even drink the
rest of college.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Okay, So you went to that school in college in
Chicago for how long?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Two years or two years and then transferred to Texas
State for two years?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Got it? Okay?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Everything transferred, Well, that's awesome. Yeah, talk about a blessing.
I had a bunch of Christian classes and stuff and
they found a way to transfer it and make it
a history class.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
And why Texas? Was there a reason for that move?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Meta dude in Chicago and he goes, hey, bro, I
heard about this school called Texas State in San Marcos, Texas.
He goes, there's a river that runs through the campus.
Every chick is hot, and it's one hundred degrees every day.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
That's all you needed.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
And he told me, he goes, I'm transferring there. I'm going.
And so then that summer, just randomly, one day I
woke up and I go, I'm going to apply to
that school. Why not? Why not apply to another state?
And so then I kind of like started hinting it
towards my parents. Then I got accepted. Randomly, I go,
oh my god, I applied, you know, And so then
I go Then the ball started rolling and then I
called him up and I go, dude, I'm coming to
Texas State with you. Man.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Did you guys live together or anything?
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yeah, we lived together. We had an apartment and then
after that we lived in other apartments together.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah, that's so fun weird. Now that's part of your story.
We rushed a frat, did you say in the frat?
Speaker 2 (15:24):
And when I tell you I had no money, I
had no money. So yeah, they told us it was
nine hundred dollars and I go, dude, I ain't got
nine hundred dollars. And I had to work twenty four
I had to work three hundred and sixty five days
so that I could then claim in state residency. That
was the only way my parents were to let me
do it.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Wait, you had to work every single day to be
able to not every single day, but I had to
have employment for twelve months, got it.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
So the second I got there, I went applied to
a gas station and got hired and started working there
the next week.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
And you worked there for a year, worked there.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
For a year, and then they tried to get me
on it. Tex State goes, no, no, you don't have
the employment. I was like, here, you go, here are
my records. And then I went back and forth with
the registrar and she ended up going, all right, you
get in state tuition, which was thousands of dollars less money. Yeah,
and that's how I was able to get my parents
to let me do it. Got it well, yeah, me
and my boy. But I worked all the time. So yeah,
I wasn't what was your question, I wasn't partying living together,
(16:12):
the vibe. Oh, the frat. They wanted us to pay
nine hundred dollars and it was like, you have to
be so active, and it just wasn't going to happen.
And I remember I was I didn't even have a
car down there, and I'm just walking down the street.
I walked everywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Was it a walking town?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Not really? But I made it one okay. So I
would get up, I'd have gas station shift at seven.
I would wake up at six and walk. It take
me an hour to get there.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
That's wild, I know. And so and you wanted to
be at this college bad enough that you did all
of this.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Yeah. Yeah. And so then at the frat though, it
just it wasn't gonna work. And I'd remember walking down
the street and one of the frat brothers picked me
up and he was a senior and he goes, hey man,
that was awesome. We had rush and all that, we did,
all that t shirts. Man, the chicks were so hot, right,
And I go, yeah, it was so fun. I go,
hey man, I'd enjoyed the frat man. And I had
to break it to him in that truck there while
(16:59):
he's drive me down the street, he dropped off right
then in there He's like, hey man, get out of
the card. No. He took me to my apartment. That
was it. Probably never saw him again.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
That's funny. He was trying to get to you.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
But they accepted us. What was it, Sigmund knew those
were the jacked ones. It was ah Si Gap. Yeah,
And so they had our rush cards and stuff, and
we just never even went to the school to get them.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
My name's probably still sitting there, Sison.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
I don't think it's still sitting there all these years later.
But and then you graduated from there, Yep, the show came.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Not right away. I did sales and then I had
an internship and then a couple years later met Bones
were in the same building. Okay, anything can happen when
you get in a building.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
New building here, but yeah, it all started with that
initial boom. I gotta get out of here. So yeah,
going to college, I mean that was That's a.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Good one day and night. I just learned a lot
about you in this moment. You. I didn't know you
went to a private coach at all.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I've never would have, but my parents made it a
requirement because we went. We played baseball. Were we major
league baseball players? No? Were we terrible baseball players? No,
we're like middle But you played in college. Yeah, so
I got caught from the team. But so we went
to these colleges.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I wasn't gonna make you say that.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
We go to these colleges in Michigan. It's just a
straight party. I mean we're touring these things and kids
are drinking, coaches are swearing and stuff. And my parents
are they My parents are super religious, total Christians. I
mean I'm a Christian too, but maybe not that strict,
and so they were totally against that. And so right
away then it's oh, we're going to a Christian school.
(18:28):
So we went to one, checked out one and maybe Indiana.
There were other ones and then we saw the one
in Chicago, and they took us on a tour and
we went on buses, got into Chicago and all you
hear is horns, hawk and I go, and they showed
you there's a train that goes into Chicago. I go,
that's my school.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
This is where. That's so funny, okay, right? The Christian
college graduate, well, half college Christian college graduate, yep, half year.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
I just couldn't. I couldn't do it anymore.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
That's fair.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Girls can only come over on Wednesday nights for one hour.
How are you supposed to meet your future?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
You didn't even meet her in Texas though either true, Hey,
but at least you met her. Yeah, you did better
than I did, So it's okay.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I did jump around mine.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
I think would be also similar moving to Nashville when
I finally like when I graduated college and was in
Witchtuff for a little bit and then I got the
job in Nashville and decided I don't know anybody, I
don't even know the city, but I'm going anyway.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
That was a life change, Like both of our moments
had to do with getting in a car and saying.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
I'm getting the hell out of here.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Like a country love story, like a country song.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
We are walking country songs. That's true. If I wanted
to signify like one super cool moment though that's so
specific though, it'd be when we all were on stage
accepting our CMA award and we were all like there
together and that whole night. That was one of my
favorite moments.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
You know, we can recreate that when we accept the
award in two weeks.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
It's about to happen again, which I'm even more excited
about because now I'm gonna have two times that memory.
Was that not such a cool moment?
Speaker 2 (20:07):
It's dope, But I'm pretty sure we had to wake
up the next morning in like six hours? Was it awesome? Yes?
But being part of this NonStop cycle, I mean I
think I can.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Yeah, let's not put that on it.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
I got like three hours of sleep, but yes, that
we were all dressed.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Up, Yeah, and we all like that was hi. It
was just a cool, oudest moment. Okay, those are our things. Also,
what is something you haven't been good at lately? Just
not good? It could be the most mediocre thing, whatever,
Just something you haven't been good at lately. Then maybe
you used to.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Be being patient with a like listening. I definitely have
to work on it because it's I've found where my
wife will want to, like she'll show me something on
her phone or she'll tell me a story. I need
to listen. You can't. I don't. I have So it's
like your phone's there and it's so easy to just
send a text while they're talking, but you could miss
(20:59):
a part of that story that's super important and special
and exciting, and it also makes the person feel like
they're worthless. Probably, So yeah, I'll come in and I'm
on my phone. You know, I'm always posting. You know,
I'm doing this for work, doing this, So I'm working
on it. I need to be in the moment hear
the story. Phones are great and stuff like that. But yeah,
you need to like listen to stories. You need to
(21:20):
be patient.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Those are kind of a few different things that you're
putting into one. But I see you, you did something
happen that caused you feel that way, or you just
kind of recognize down here.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
No, just in my head, it just seems like sometimes
we're not actually how did your day go? Like are
we listening to how did their day go? Can we
repeat back to them what they just said. Most people
probably can't and I can't most of the time. So
that's what I'm trying to work on. So I've been
just bad at it.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
That's very introspective of you, and it's very proud and.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
It's like we're going to the new building and stuff.
So it's kind of twice the workload. It not for
lunch for everybody else, so it is a lot more.
And I mean sometimes I'll just tell my wife. I'll
be like, hey, I'm seeing ghosts, which means like it's
a little crazy right now.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
That's your frame for her that she knows what's going on.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah, that I mean I'm like light headed, like I'm
starting to see things, like I think I'm going crazy.
But yeah, I've never been great at like totally being
all in on a conversation. So I'm working work in progress.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
That's really good, seriously, really introspective of you.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
I'm very proud like you and me, I'm all in
on this combo.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, you're doing great. You haven't been on your phone once.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
I'm shaking though.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
I mean, you have looked at the board a few times,
but that's normal.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Oh yeah, you haven't liked the yeah, with a reaction.
I like to just do math on the board and
see count out spot blocks.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
You do well. Mine was not as like uh deep
deep deep, mind's more surface level. But I have not listen.
I'm a clean freak, right. You probably picked up on that,
like I keep everything super clean around me, and I
have not had won the desire or even the want
to like clean my house lately. And it's not even
a mess. It's just like my no, like genuinely like
(22:55):
vacuum all the time. You have to vacuum like every
other day. You gotta wipe down counter all the time.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
What is your address? I'm sending over a Molli Maiden.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Apparently, like I've just not been feeling it lately. It's
been hard to like keep up. And I think to
your point of like changing studios, there's a lot going
on and also trying to like make sure I'm out
and doing stuff and being active in my life and
keeping up with also working out and also being dog
mom and also trying to date and like live a
life that the thing that has been on the back
(23:26):
burner lately is keeping my house like spit spot clean.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
I will say this, the over drinking on a Saturday night,
I am terrible at because and then the wasting of
a Sunday, that's what it's. Then next thing, you know,
your house isn't clean on Monday. I found that out
and I'm so then on now on Saturday nights, I'm like, hey, Sonny,
you cut off this drink and right now you hear me.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Also, you can make sure you have a not wasteful Sunday,
so then you go into the week better. It is
true though, Yes, yes, when you're hungover on a Sunday
it's the worst.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Do not have that extra drink. And it especially with
the cleaning, because the last thing you want to drink
do hungover is clean.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Oh yeah, that's so true.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
So I found that one last drink. You know what,
sometimes if it's already open, just pour it in the
sink and you'll thank yourself the next day when the
house is spit spot clean. You like, yeah, yeah, I
was listening to you.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
That's mine. I get also like going back to our
taking care of the yard. I don't I'm not going
to pay for a cleaning service because I can do it.
I'm very capable. I'm just like it's low on the
totem pole of my priorities lately.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
They're affordable. I've heard our mother in law swears by it.
Really they come by, do a deep clean, go into
her house. I rave about it every time.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
I'm like, oh my gosh, where do you get that
time to clean this place?
Speaker 2 (24:48):
She's like, I have a cleaning person. Shut up.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
You know, maybe I'll get to that point in my life.
But for an how I feel like I'm very able
bodied and I have the time. I just got to
make it a priority kind.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Of, and it is. Let's be real, Cleaning is kind
except for doing the dishes and cleaning a toilet, vacuuming
and scrubbing counters is therapeutic in a way. It's kind.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
But you are right. I hate cleaning a bathroom. I
hate cleaning a bathroom. It's the worst. I don't know why.
It's not like they're super dirty. I just like don't
like cleaning them.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Just growing up, I think that was always the worst,
the doing the dishes. Whenever you it was me and
my brother and sister, so I think we had a
drawing or something like you would always just be assigned
to you. The worst was the bathrooms and the doing
of the dishes.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Trauma from Trump.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Yeah, yeah, it came back.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Okay, we're gonna take a quick break, will be her back, okay, Raymondo.
This is where we're gonna admit something else to What
useless thing do you spend money on that you really
wish you didn't?
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Oh well, I mean that's obvious.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
But is yours gambling?
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Yeah? I was gonna say, I hope we don't have
a sponsor thing running well, but also someone's run that
say responsible gambling.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Responsible, We'll choose another one because everybody knows about your
gambling habit. Habits do you have?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
And I can think real here? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, so mine is that anytime I order takeout for
like delivery, I get so mad at myself that I'm
paying ten extra dollars one for taking out food and
two for it being delivered to my house. Like I'm
so lazy, I can't go pick it up and in two.
Like the charges on Uber eats or you know, door
dash or whatever, they're so high. Every time I look
at it. Something that would originally be ten dollars, no,
(26:22):
like twenty five, I'm like, why am I doing this
to myself? I get so angry every time, and yet
I still do it maybe once a week, but I
still hate that once a week moment, and I like,
look at myself and rejection. I need to reject myself.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, I'm gonna say, were you done? Yeah, I'm done
fast food. The reason we get it is because it's fast,
but there are so many other better options out there.
And it's typically because we had that extra drink on
a Saturday night, so we don't go get groceries on
a Sunday, and so then you hit a fast food
on a Monday. So for me, if I fast food's
(26:55):
great in the moment, but you're like, I could eat
in so much better at that meal. And was it amazing?
I mean, was it good? Yeah? Was it amazing though
probably not? Was it good though it was? Yeah? It
was good.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
It is always good In that moment, you're like, I
really like my choice here, and like an hour later,
you're like, I don't like my choices anymore.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
And the reason is because your body doesn't burn on
that stuff very well and very efficiently. Can you can
tell if I eat a healthy meal bas or Boom
cooks up healthy lunch. Next thing you know, Boom, I'm
watering the grass, I'm going for a run doing It's
just the food. It's the fuel you get fast food. Up.
I'm done for the day. But what's on the TV
because I'm not moving for four hours.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Yeah, you're feeding into all the badness that comes with that.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
So that's fine.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
No, those are both good.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
And I just had a buff this morning, So put
that in the same category you did.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
We were that was a muffin. I didn't include that,
like the story behind the muffin. When I was I
had posted a story of us talking about donut.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
This is a different even food I'm talking about. I
had a side muffin. I cheated on the donut.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
I know. But what's so funny is like, let me
give you this situation. So Ray and I yesterday some
PROD donuts to the studio. Ray and I sitting there
in front of the donuts and he's like, we don't
really need this. I'm like, yeah, we're right, but like
I'm gonna have a half a one. He's like, Okay,
give me that other half. This is how it started.
So I give him the other half. We both eat
it and like it was really good. Read it comes
(28:12):
over maybe two minutes maybe and he's like, you want
to split that other one. It's the same donut, Okay,
like we had. We did not try two different donuts.
They're both glazed. He comes over, he's like, you split it.
I'm like, Ray, this defeated the purpose of us splitting
in the first place, exactly, so, but we split it again.
So we basically had one whole donut each.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
And originally though it was a good thought to say, hey,
let's just do a half.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Yeah, it was a great thought to start, and then
we just escalated from there. But then, okay, so we
have each of our individual donuts and then I come
out thirty minutes later and raise on like his third
or four donut, And I was like, Ray, you're the
one who told me earlier that we didn't need these,
so so what's happening here?
Speaker 2 (28:53):
But I no, no, no, I explained it to you. I
was rage eating because I had a horrible morning. I
was doing a lot of stuff like trying to clean programming.
Why is this really born to talk about? But I
told you that I was I needed that I needed
a damn donut.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Okay, yeah, but you you ended up spiraling, like spiraling,
and this all came from Ray. I was never shaming Ray.
He could have what every hee's, He could eat whatever
he wants. It's actually entertaining to me to watch the
things that Rays throughout the day, very entertaining. But I
was like, Ray, you literally looked at me dead in
the eyes at eight am this morning and said we
don't need this, and then you perceeded to spiral.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
It totally went against what I originally had said.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
So I wanted to share that was funny. It was
a really funny moment.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Yet so you're okay, so you're saying we each had
half a donut, then we each had another half a
donut S, which is a whole donut. So we should
have originally.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
In our own donuts. Yes, but but so many people
were like, well, at least you gotta try to I'm like, no, no, no,
it was the same donut, like we didn't one wasn't chocolate,
one wasn't glades, Like they were both glazes the same doughnut. Yeah,
we dumb, We dumb. It's fine, we were. We were.
It was a long day yesterday, So I guess, okay,
I want to talk to you about these There's a
girl on TikTok saying if a guy does one through
(30:05):
three of these red flags, it'll be bad news. Don't
date them, kay, And I'm curious guys perspective, Like, I
don't know that I agree with all these I just
found this on TikTok Okay, if he can't keep his
place decently clean.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, it's gonna be like that for life.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
And oh, guys are so gross with the beer and
the pizza. That stuff can get smelly fast.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
And y'all's beards in your hair.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Yeah, I gotta actually talk to my dad on that one.
My parents stayed for a weekend. Dad left his like
beard stuff in the stick pops. What does mom let
you get away with? We are a clean household around here, dude,
I'm like laying it down on them. It is funny, though,
parents staying at my house they ask it, Hey, is
it okay if I use his cup? I'm like, you're
my parents asking me if it's okay if you can
do something. That was an awesome reversal. That was great.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Were you like, yeah, like it's you know, make yourself
at home or were you just like no, yeah, you
have to ask me every time?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Oh? They asked me about like a handful of things,
and every time it was equally awesome.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Really yeah, so now you're gonna make them keep asking you.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Yeah, you guys can take the car. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah,
you guys are good. Go to stay hot however long
you want, taking seven year old pair.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
And a mom Oh, that's fun. Okay. If he starts
talking about your body right off the.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Bat, uh, if he compliments it, what's wrong with that?
I think I've been out of the game for a minute,
but I think that might have been my first go
to compliment.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
You went up to Bay and we're like, nice.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Body, I love what your rockin.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Bayser, poor Bay. She's like, dang, what did I do?
What did I do?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I think she got really mad at me one time
because I complimented. We were at the bar and I
was I said, this isn't probably word for word what
I said, but it was not. I would never say
it now, guys, I have changed. I'm such a mature man.
I think I said I said it in a way funnier,
but I'm just telling you the gist of it, something
like I can't believe you didn't serve us better or
faster with my chick's big old chest.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
No, you did.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
I said it a little bit better than that, but
and she got so mad at me. But that was
really when we first met at Paradise Park and I
said that.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
That's funny, and somehow you still manage.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
But I'm glad she did that because then I realized,
you don't say stuff like that. That's not funny.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Okay, see, okay, don't comment body early on, we just
talked out of Ray's answer originally, and I would agree
with that.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Like, if a guy's coming out like you can comment
and be like you're really pretty, you're beautiful, like whatever.
But if you're constantly sitting there just like everything is about,
I'm gonna know that the one thing you're going after
is sex.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Yeah, you know, I didn't know he said that word.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Well, I didn't know how to you know, bleep whatever,
leave it in there. Okay. If he has one or
more girl best friends.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Uh yeah, I have no way. I mean, that makes
total sense.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Hey, I'm asking from a dude's perspective, but I'm.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Telling you now, I have tons of girl best friends.
But it's because we've met him through marriage and they're
friends of all.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, and that makes sense. But I think this girl
is saying, like originally, if she he by himself has
multiple like girl best friends.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah yeah, unless it's you're in the same town where
he grew up, then that would make sense. You're gonna
have some of those townies that you're best SI's with.
So there's exceptions to the rule. But I would say
then that means he hooks up a lot, He's got
a lot of hanger ons, maybe has some money, he's
got a hold.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Where did the money park come into that.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
There's this guy I follow. I'm not saying his name,
but he has ten girls that are his best friend
and I mean he has to just be hooking up
all the time. I would never date the dude. I'm
not into dudes. I'm married. But I'm saying I look
at it, and if a girl saw him hanging out
with ten girls, he's never with a guy. Yeah. So,
and he's still friends with my wife and hey baby,
(33:55):
he's so friendly and nice.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Hey baby's like that kind of guy.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Yeah. So sometimes maybe the personality, but say, hey, maybe
another big event this Saturday night, will love for you
and your husband to come. But he has he's always
with ten hanger ons, and so I would say undateable.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Yeah, that's the thing I do. There are circumstances if
if they are involved, and maybe they just talk so often,
but they're not like hanging out all the time.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
No, No, there's versions they're doing uh they're doing pool parties,
they do white parties, they do uh Gatsby parties all
the time.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Yeah. Yeah, there's there's exceptions, but I think few and
far between for sure. If they follow a bunch of
naked some suit girls on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Yeah, I learned early on, and that's not good. You
learned that lison No from Buddies, got it?
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Okay? Yeah, not a good one. Definitely. Definitely a guy
who's like he's he's weighing all his options all the time,
is what he's doing. Yeah, And if that's the follow.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Up, I mean maybe you know, he looks at a
Bikuina photo and it puts his mind in a good
place when he's working on the tractor or something.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
You know, that's a really weird perspective that I did need.
But sure, we'll roll with it. If you're not one
hundred percent clear on their intentions with you, they aren't
one hundred percent about you.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Uh, you got to state that your stance on life
the first time you meet them. That's a weird one.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
I doubinate this is within the first Like this could
all fall within the first week or so or a
couple of weeks of dating.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
I never intended to get married, got married. I never
intended to have kids. Maybe it's something to have kids.
So I don't think it needs to be specifically like
in a document. Hey, I'm gonna send you over a
DOCU sign These are my intentions.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Okay, that's a song.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
These are my intentions.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Oh wait, that's not what's was to sing anymore?
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Is it our kellyer?
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Did think that one is? These? No, we're thinking of
these are my confessions. Usher are still clear. We're still
clear with Usher. Dang, I can't keep up anymore. Okay,
if you have to com I think this is an
easy one. If you have to compromise your morals, boundaries,
values when you're around him or any of his people. Yes,
I think that's an obvious red flag.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
If they don't don't talk about God, I mean that's
probably not gonna work.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
If they drink or do drugs or party all the time.
Basically they look forward to the weekend.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Looking forward to the weekend, There is nothing wrong with that.
We love a good Friday at the household. The drugs
can't see that leading to a positive outcome. The drinking
one or two times is fine. You want somebody that
loves the weekends, though the weekends are words that we will.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Shouldn't you be living for every day, not just living
for the weekends.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
We work so damn hard. I want my weekends.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
Well, you can have your weekends, I want them, But
shouldn't you also live during the days too? Are the
weekdays I do you get a little bit.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
You're not gonna you don't get to do everything you
want to do on the weekdays, But on the weekends,
damn if I don't do everything I want to do.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
You're here the example of living for the weekend, But
that I think the look forward to the weekend part
is not great. But I do like if they are
drinking every single day or drugs are heavily involved, yet
that's a flag.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Drinking daily Is that a thing?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Yeah, you'd be surprised. I mean people do often. I
think it's also different, like if you're going hard every
single day, that's also really intensity party all the time.
Like if you're having a casual drink at dinner each
day or whatever, that's also different. Somebody began exceptions.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
And maybe with their job they can pull off going
out on a Tuesday night. I respect that, we just
can't with ours.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
I do. I'll cut on a Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
That's ballsy.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
I mean I still have, but they're like it's like
dinners or I'm going on a date or going to
a concert. They're not like, I'm not going to go raged.
I mean literally last night I had friends that went
out as like absolutely not, I'm not doing this tonight.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
And also say you go out on a Tuesday, what
it for yourself? What is your curfew?
Speaker 1 (37:42):
I mean, ideally I'm home and in bed by eleven
at the latest.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Yeah, when I was singles, I think I would always
say ten was the absolute latest.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
But see things start getting started at like seven, eight o'clock.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
I know That's why it was tough then.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
It'd only give you two hours. So I try at
least have a little bit of a threshold. If I'm
in bed eleven, I get at least a couple hours
of sleep, Yes, and I can run, but that might
get earlier. As I get older, road hard, hung up. Well, yes,
if they blow up on you or ignore you when
you have a disagreement, uh.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
It's gonna really help you. Guys get down to each
other's personalities and figure things out. I wouldn't say it
blow up. It's terrible, but is it healthy. No, But
if you really need somebody in that moment to just
say no, that's not how you're gonna treat me, You're
gonna remember them telling you no in your face a
little bit of a blow up more than hey, I
really don't like how you talk to me like that.
(38:36):
Sometimes you need those You put that in.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
A baby for it. Sorry, that wasn't a bait to say, like, hey,
I don't need you talk like you made that? Oh
my goodness, right, okay.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Honest say, there's nothing wrong with the blow up.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
No, this is where we disagree because I think you
can communicate especially in the early phases of dating. You
can communicate super easily how you feel, what you feel
everything without yelling. If you don't have yet, like anger
management issues, yeah, I think it's different as the relationship
progresses and if like you get really passionate. But a
(39:08):
blow up is like you so angry and you throwing
things and like, oh no, no.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
Sorry, I actually misunderstood that. So like when I would
blow up, I would just leave.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
You're like, okay, I got I need space.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
Yeah, So I would just then walk out. Sometimes I
come back to the radio studio. Sometimes I just go
for I just leave the bar be like okay, I'm
I'm over this conversation. I just leave. So, to me,
that was a blow up. You're saying like throwing crap.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
I mean, yeah, like a blow up is like yelling
and intense.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Like, yeah, I'm fine with the yelling, but yeah, the
throwing of things is probably never healthy. No, I don't.
Our neighbors upstairs used to throw stuff. It was so
annoying every time that, Like, guys, can you not have
a fight or a discussion where you don't throw a
glass that breaks every time and you hear it all?
Speaker 1 (39:49):
Yeah, see not good.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Don't hear that anymore in the country, of course, not.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Because you don't have any neighbors.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
Okay, Well there's some there's some red flags. I think
she's right. I mean, I feel like most of these
are a yes for me. As far as red flags,
I don't listen. Dating just goes back to like, just
be a decent human being, communicate what you want, like
be open about who you are, and like you'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I always viewed as this, jobs tend to suck, ours
were blest. Is fine. But the dating you're you're choosing
to do that, it should be a blast. How easy
is it to laugh, hook up and have a couple
of drinks. It's the easiest thing in the world.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
Okay, dating, yes is easy. We're relationships are hard.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Then that's one step up. Yes, then you're a little
bit more committed. It still should be super fun. If not,
you can just walk away, walk out of it. I've
always been of the mind it needs to be a blast.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Yeah, you should be having fun. If at any point
in time you're like this isn't for me, yeah, you
should leave for sure. Yeah I'm with you. That was
a good one. Yeah, good call. We did it. Okay,
we're ending this on best Bar. And now this came
from Libby and Tennessee. Instead putting it in the question,
we're putting it here.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
Well, I'm partial. I go Gars, but give me brew
House just because the TV situation. If you're a guy
and if you're a chick to like sports, or you're
a check that your guy like sports. Brew House because
it's not one of the named bars. It's on Broadway
and the TV system is amazing. They'll put the sound on.
They have any beer you could imagine. I'm just a
(41:26):
one beer guy, but they have it. All the bartenders.
There's a whole list of them. But we met everyone,
friends with all of them. Now they've all gone on
and now have families and stuff. Now, yeah, they're the
best bartenders because it's not that they don't deal with
the tourists.
Speaker 1 (41:43):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
Yep, it's the big name bars. A lot of tourists there.
And then Midtown. You and me love Mintown. You can
name one from here.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
I do love Midtown, but that's actually not where I
was going. I was going East Nashville. One of my
favorite bars. It's a newer bars called Ernie's and it
is amazing. They have games. They have darts in pool
in a toad game, and the drinks are relatively cheap
and it's like a lodge but also a dive bar.
Speaker 2 (42:07):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (42:09):
I love a good lodge.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
I'm telling you would love this place.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
Right. Okay, yeah, I listened.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
I heard you say that, So there we go. If
you stayed long enough, then you get the insider scoop.
I will say that one time, and one time only
because I don't want people to take it.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
Over, because they will the will and then there'll be
a line out the door and we'll say, why is
it like this? Oh that's right cause on Best Bits
we tell you guys the bars to go to. People
go to it and the word spreads.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
It's so true. Okay, we're jumping out of here. Thanks

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
