Logan ready to go.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
I don't drink as much.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yeah, that's great, that's great. Well, I just remember when
we were down in Key West about a year ago.
That was that was maybe a different story.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
For my brother Leroy. Yeah he was out and about. Yeah, yeah,
I was. Logan was back here.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Yeah, how's Leroy doing.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
LeRoy's good. He still comes out every once in a while,
but not a time, not as much as he used
to share.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
He's being he's being kept on a leash.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, he's been kept on the leash.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah. I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
He's being watched closely exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
How's the start of the year, bad.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Man, good, busy? We hit the ground running, Cameron tour,
Cameron Marlow tour. Yeah, putting out a new song, just rolling. Yeah,
it's awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
And I saw too that you guys just announced the
second or the second two point zero tour for Lucky
with mag second lego Lucky. Yeah, just keep keep getting
luckier lockier.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah, I'm just the luckiest man in the world.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah at this point, Yeah, dude, what's like, what's it
been like torn with her?

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Gosh, it's been crazy just because we were friends kind
of before anything popped off for both of us. Because
so she went to Georgia. I went to another school
in Georgia when I graduated high school called Kennesas State
for a year. So, like, she graduated from Georgia in
May of twenty twenty and I transferred over there in
August of twenty twenty. So we just missed each other.

(02:35):
But like you've been to Athens, Yeah, Like Athens has
a huge music scene, but like not necessarily country music.
It's like B fifty two came out of there. Are
just a bunch of different like iconic bands have played
and come through Athens, but it's not like a big
country scene. So when she was in school, she would
play like the sorority gig some of the frat parties.
She would play like she'd open up for people at
Georgia Theater. She tells the story like Chase Rice like

(02:56):
let her open up at Georgia Theater form but she
had to write a song, so like she did all
that stuff. So then when she left, I was kind
of like the country person in Athens, so I sang
it all the same stuff she did, so everybody like
we kind of knew the same people, and everybody's like,
you got to meet this Megan girl. And so I
think it was hair Salon is the song that I
covered on TikTok, and she reposted it and like we

(03:17):
followed each other on social media, became friends, and then
just after that just we kind of hung out a
couple times, talked music, and then I guess it was
like August to twenty twenty two. We went to the
Funny Library, had coffee. Yeah, we were talking. She had
just got picked up on the Jamie Johnson tour and
she said, I've never toured. I don't know what's going on.

(03:37):
I don't know how this works. And I was like, well,
I don't know either, And the TV show had just
come out like the week before, so nothing was popping
off for me at that point. And then we got
up to leave and I was like, so, what are
you doing next? And she's like, we have this song.
It's about football. I don't know what it's going to do,
but it's called Tennessee Orange, and then this is it.
That's it. Then everything, I think the rest is history.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
So you're just at a coffee shop showing with Meg,
getting to know her, and she's like, hey, I got
this song. I think it could be legit. Did you
when you listen to it? Were you like, oh, that's that's.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Oh yeah, I was like this is great, and then
it just like took off. Yeah, but it was like
that's we kind of known each other before anything happened.
I mean I think I had like eleven thousand followers
on Instagram. Yeah, I mean the show had just come out,
and like I said, she had just like she had
just put out Pistolmato Roses like the EP. So it
was both like about like we were both on the

(04:26):
verge or something happening.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Yeah, and here we are.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
But I mean the first headlining show that she ever
did was the first show with the Pistolmader Roses store,
and I opened up. I was a deer in headlights.
I mean it was like because we when she announced
that tour, like that show sold in like fifteen minutes,
so they moved it outside. It was like three thousand
people in state row outside show, big stage, and I

(04:49):
was like, okay, let's go do it.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
You had to be like, I never played.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
In front of that many people. Yeah, I was just like, holy.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Shit, dude, that's a big one to get into. It's
not like and even you know, first show, like a
couple hundred people, that's intimidating. But to walk on stage
and just see rows and rows of people, like that's
high stakes.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
But it was great because it was in States bro
I like knew it was a lot of my friends,
like my family was there, so I was comfortable. But
I was I definitely didn't know anything about live music,
touring anything at that point. So now, I mean, what's up.
Been nine months ago, and it's like since then, we've
just toured just about every weekend. So I feel like
I've learned so much. I know, I've learned so much

(05:30):
just about how to put on a live show. You know.
I learned what this cable plugged into, which is great
because what.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Kind of connect all the ride.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
I'm like, oh, oh, that's how that works.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Yeah, okay, I love that. When you when you were
first hanging out with Megan in the library and showing
did she mention that she wrote Tennessee Orange about Morgan
wall and or had it knocking out yet?

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Uh, she did not mention that.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
She didn't mention that interesting.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
She did not mention anything about the origin of.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Gotcha the song. And I'm also I'm under the impression
you probably to sign an NDA when you met with her,
and you can't reveal this.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
My attorney is available at all times.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
I understood, what's crazy is you know you moved moved
to Nashville. I know we've gone to know each other
through like mutual friends and writers rounds and stuff. And
I was you looked familiar when I first met you,
and then I like hadn't put the two together. And
then I'm like, well shit, that guy was on a
TV show claimed a fame, which like basically it's is

(06:31):
a twelve of you on the show, right, and you
have you're all related to a celebrity, and you can't
disclose who that is. We have to gases walking me
through the process, like how did how did you get
selected for that show in the first place?

Speaker 1 (06:43):
And like yeah, so it was funny, So like all right,
so I'll spoil it for everybody. If you don't know
Al Dane's my second cousin. So they were like producers
were looking for people to be on the show. They
went on his Instagram, found his sister Cassie, and they
like reached out to her and she's like, hey, like,
I got four kids, I have a farm, I have
a job, Like I can't go to LA and film

(07:05):
a TV show for you know however long. And so
at that point I kind of told everybody was like, hey,
once I graduate college, like I'm gonna move to Nashville.
I'm gonna try the thing out and just see what happens.
And so she knew that, and she told the producer.
She was like, we have a baby cousin that's like
trying to get into the entertainment business. So I call him.
So I was in a public speaking class at UGA
and my phone went off. It was a phone number

(07:26):
from like New York, and I was like no, so
like there was a voicemail. I thought it was a prank,
and then like I get a text from the same number.
They're like, hey, please call us back when you get
a second So I did and they were like, so
we're casting for this TV show and I was like okay,
And so I like filled out like everything and went
through like the interview process, how to go get a
ring light?

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yes, the purchases.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah. So I was like walking through Target in Nathens, Georgia,
and there was this girl standing there. I was like, Hey,
what's the ring light? She was like, you need help
on you? I like, yeah, I'm no idea what was
going on. So I did it, kind of went through
the whole interview process and then they're like you got
the show, which was great. So I was in school.
I had like one more semester left, so I went
to my professor's I'm like, hey, I'm not going to
miss this, but I'm also not dropping out of school,

(08:12):
and so kind of went out and did it and
it's become what it's become. But it was insane. Reality
TV is great. I'm a huge fan of reality TV
in general, so being able to be on a reality
TV show was wild. Yeah, but it was cool and
it was bigger than we I mean it was the
first season show. It was like, we had no idea
how big it would be. We didn't know what network
it was going to be on anything, and so they're like, hey,

(08:35):
it's on ABC. It comes on right after the Bachelorette
during the summer, and I was like, oh shit, like
this is going to be something. And it was huge,
and it streamed super well on Hulu. If I'm not mistaken,
it was the most stream show on Hulu of the
summer twenty twenty two. So it just became a big
It became a massive thing.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
So I feel like the realities you showed debate of
like how much of this is authentic off the cough,
which is like the scripted stuff behind the scenes. Was
it very organized or like where there like wehre there
are real moments where you're.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Just it was all. There was nothing scripted whatsoever. I
mean there was a couple of things that like producers
would be like, hey say that again, like your mic
was off or something like that. Sure, but outside of that,
I mean it was real. They kind of let us
just like run around do our own thing, like in
the house, which was insane. But yeah, there was no
like producers coming into rooms going hey you need to
say this or this is who this person's related to. Yeah,

(09:29):
so it was like it was very real. And I
can't speak for all reality TV shows because I don't know,
but I mean, obviously it was like the competitions were
scripted and not scripted but like drawn out like this
is how this works. But outside of that, it was
very real.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
If you after that show, have you thought about other
reality TV shows? Like is there a show that you
would love to go on?

Speaker 1 (09:48):
I don't know. I wouldn't. I don't know. If I
ever want to be a competitor in a show, I
would one hundred percent go host a reality TV show. Yeah,
Like I mean I would get on a plane so
quick and fly to LA and go to a reality
TV show and host it. But I don't know. But
it makes you watch reality TV different, like because you're
watching now and you're like, okay, like that's how that works.
You know. It's like there are literally cameras everywhere.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah, you have the you have the inside scoop. I
was gonna say, to capture all those moments. There's no
way there's not a camera in a room and somebody's
rolling and dragging.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
There are cameras in every corner of the room, which
is great. Yeah, and then there's just people just pop
in your room with like three cameras in your face
and you're like, oh okay. But like once you get
a couple days into film and you're used to it,
you're like, oh, yeah, like whatever, Yeah, so are.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
You still a little better that you came in second place? No,
I was.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
I was cool with I honestly didn't think I would
make it past the first episode, which is funny because
all of us like talking, none of us thought we would.
But I was like, because my whole thing was I'm like,
I don't know how long I want to be on
the show. So from the very start, I was like,
I'm related to a country music artist. I'm a country
music artist. I sang on the show. Yeah, So I
definitely thought they were going to be like, oh, they

(10:58):
were just gonna start picking out tacking, and then they didn't.
They nobody knew country music at all, and I didn't
know pop culture well, so it was like, you.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Know, it's funny about that show. I think what made
it brilliant is I didn't realize they the people had
such diverse backgrounds. And I watched a clip where you know,
they I think they asked like a clip of an
Alden song, you like drowns the Whisky, and everybody freezes
like they've never heard that song or even nowhere to begin,
but no ida and I'm like, I'm sitting here like

(11:28):
this is the easiest thing.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
It is a hit, you know, know it's hilarious. I
had no idea, but I didn't know about like I mean,
there was a clip that I didn't because I didn't
I was born in two thousand and so, like in
Sync kind of had broke up once I got old enough.
I just knew justin Timberlake was justin Timberlake. So that
was a question that was like this man had a
career with en Synct before he had a solo career.
And I was like, I don't know. I don't no

(11:50):
idea who this is. And so they were like, I
mean there was lots of overlap. I'm not good with
pop culture. I've gotten a lot better. I like, keep up.
I'm subscribed a lot of like pop culture for sure.
I wake up and I was like, okay, what's popping
off in pop culture? Okay, cool? I kind of I
kind of try to keep up now.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Yeah, that's awesome, dude. Well, after the show, like obviously
you come to Nashville, things are going really well. Is
how is your relationship with Jason al Dean? You know,
affected your musical career. Are you guys close?

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Yes, super close. It's like there's not a lot of
like guy cousins on that side of the family. So
we've always been tight. And it was like, I mean
from the time I was a kid. I mean he
popped in like two thousand and five is when Hicktown
like hit the radio and started, you know, doing well,
and he got like the Rascal Flight Store. So I
grew up kind of like seeing him on Award Show,
seeing them, like seeing them on CMT, going to concerts.

(12:44):
So it's kind of like I always knew, like musically
I wanted to do something, but I just never thought
I could, which is why I thought I wanted to
be an attorney and went to college and all that
different shit. But it was like I kind of told him.
I was like, Hey, I want to do music, and
he was like do it. He's like, why not? And
so we had like a couple of cool conversations before
I moved to town, and even before I did the

(13:04):
TV show where I was like, Hey, what do you
think about this song? What do you think about this?
And I still mean, I think the biggest thing with
Jason is like he just and I tell people with
this all the time. Is like he just answers the
phone when I call him and I'm like, hey, like
what do you think about this song? I need your
advice on this. And it's been awesome. It's just spend,
you know. He wasn't like, hey, move town, I'll give
you a deal. He was like, if you need introduce

(13:24):
into somebody, like you know, I'll help you. But he
he literally told me when one of the times I've
played songs for him, He's like, I don't think you're
going to need my help like you, I think you
can go do this on your own. So it's been cool,
but it's always been fun. Like having him is just
like we went to turch and Kekos like a month ago,
me and him and Brittany and the babies, and it's
just like we just played each other songs and demos

(13:45):
and just talked about music and talked about touring and
different stuff. So it's like being able to do that
and like, I mean, he is he was the biggest
thing in country music.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yeah, I mean, oh my god. I amount of number
ones that longevity of his career.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
It's been insane. It's like very few people like dominate,
you know, a genre like that, like he has for
so long, and so just being able to get his
perspective on stuff and just like different things has just
been super cool. And like that's just been the thing
is like we just talk about stuff and I just
tell people all the time, like that's the biggest thing
he's done for me in my career is just he's
just answered the phone when I called him, and he's

(14:19):
just been great to me.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
I love I mean, I love that you have that connection.
And the part I love that you mentioned that he
sort of said, hey, man, like based off of my opinion,
you're you're gonna be all right, and like kind of
let you, you know, do your thing. You know, I
hate like the comparison game, right, but like in this town,
you know, you don't want to just be known as
the guy under Jason Ewan's wing, right, And I imagine

(14:42):
like there are a lot of people that are like, oh,
he's related to Jason Oldine, who he gets this opportunity
or this thing. And I feel like, you know, on
the flip side of that, it's like, no, you're trying
to be loving Crosby.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
I mean two different Like we're different people we've got.
I mean, it's like we've got different goals and this
whole thing, me and him both, and I feel like
the music, it's different in the way that we have
brained ourselves is different. And it's just like, you know,
I'm not going to go on stage with a pocket
chain and a cowboy hat and sing dirt Roodan anthem,
you know what I mean. And he's not going to
go out and play my songs. And it's just we're
just two different people. So but I mean, I get

(15:13):
the comparison thing. It's like, and that's at the end
of the day, I'm like, he is my cousin, Like
that's just a fact, Like there's no getting around that,
Like that he's related to me by blood. Can on
switch those right, And so it's like, but no, it's
never been a thing where you know, I've you know,
tried to piggyback off of him or whatever. It's just
like I did the show and it was great and
it was cool. But there's a lot of people that
have no idea that I was on TV. There's a

(15:34):
lot of people that don't know I'm related to Jason Audan.
Like I was doing a podcast, like two weeks ago,
and the guy had no idea. He was like because
I said, I was like, yeah, Jason, he's like here
talking about Jason Dan. I was like, yeah, he's my cousin.
He's like really yeah. I mean so it's like not
a look, I guess, not a like an own thing.

Speaker 2 (15:47):
You're probably something ship like you're like my boy Jason, like.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
We were. We were in Turkey Kickos and Noah's art
taking shots.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
He's like, oh, I was like, ol Dane, Yeah, yeah,
that's awesome, dude.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Man. We got much more to time about. We're gonna
be right back here on the podcast. All right, guys,
we are back. A good friend of mine, Logan Crosby,
is in the studio, and I don't know if you
guys have seen Logan on TikTok or Instagram, but this
man you talk about, a guy that is an advocate
for Diet Coke. Put this guy on the damn can.

(16:21):
When did you know that you and and Diet Coke
we're going to be a thing.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
What did I know I had an addiction?

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Uh, probably seventeen when I was in high school.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
How many Dike DC's were you throwing back per day.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Back in high school, probably like two just because you know,
I played sports. I ran cross country, played soccer, so
I was like, I had lots of water, sure and so,
but then once I got into college, it was over.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
So you've cut out the water and replaced it.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
With more diet more diet coke, which is not good,
but it is what it is. I mean, what are
you gonna do?

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Can you why diet coke over regular coke?

Speaker 1 (16:55):
I don't know. My mom drinks lots of cokes so
and I mean we're from Georgia, so that's where coke,
you know, is headquartered and where it was invented. So
I feel like it was just always around, like coke
and diet coke. I don't know. I just I feel
like coke has too much sugar in it. Yeah, it
hurts my head a little bit when I drink too many.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
And you can you taste the difference between. So this
episode of the podcast is called called their Bluff. Here's
how this works. I have actually, uh oh, I have
a coke and a diet coke, and I want to
see if you can actually tell the difference between these two.
So I'm gonna let you make a little blindfold out
of this guy right here.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
Okay, this is Logan.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Crosby says he can tell the difference between coke and
die coke. Let's see if he's actually true about that.
So we're gonna put these here while you get your
blink hold on. If you can get it close enough,
it'd be good. And while you're doing that, I'm just
gonna I'm gonna mix these guys up right here.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Okay, let's see. God, that sounded great.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Let me get me get a crack in front of
the microphone too, just so we have clarity here. That
was a pretty smooth guy.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
I can I feel like I can tell the difference
between just the way the can open it.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Yeah, a seasoned Guy's when.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
You're when you're an addict. You're an addict. You're in
all right, put up your hand. That's one of them. Okay,
you want me to go ahead and try this? Destroy
this microphone?

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Okay, get a good swirl on there. What are you feeling?

Speaker 1 (18:29):
This is a diet coke?

Speaker 2 (18:30):
Okay? And then here's this almost spilled on your clphone.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
Yeah this is coke.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Yeah you sure about that?

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Feel pretty good talking in the answer.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
You can you can take that band down off. We'll
see if you're look at that. I'm not joking when
I'll tell you unbelievable. You know, I'll give you the
diet coke and I'll take the coke from God blush.
This that was called your bluff and Logan Crosby was
not bluffing. No, that was impressive, dude.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Yeah, I mean which one did you open first?

Speaker 2 (19:04):
I opened the coke Cokears.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah. I felt like it was a louder crack and
because there was more sugar in it.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
I don't know if that my tense, but when you
open up like that, that's that's a coke.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
You see. You seem like you could. You could right
under your death.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
You're really not good that somebody can open up a
diet coke and a coke and I'll be like, oh,
I know the difference.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Right is uh? That is fantastic man. Well, we're gonna
move to the second portion of our game segment here,
which kind of love a game. Yeah, I mean you
were on a game show, so I feel like this
is up your alley. Yes, all right, this segment is
called ranked these five Things. Without knowing what comes next,
I'm we'll give you a topic. I'm well, give you
one answer, you rank it, and then the next answer

(19:42):
you put you know in the other categories, but you
don't know what comes next, right, uh So here's the
first category ranked these five things Taylor Swift songs. First
one is Cruel Summer two okay, shake it off? Five?
You can shake it off.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
It's not your jam, that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
H Logan Crosby, not a shake it off guy. What
about the I actually don't know what it's called, but
we are never, ever, ever getting me back together. I
don't know if it's the whole line.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
But three okay, Megan covers that in the Set's great.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yeah you like that? Yeah, you still have the one
spot open. The next one is Tim McGraw classic.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
Oh can I rank that number one?

Speaker 2 (20:27):
You can if you would like.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
I would like to write them.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
That is on bold Take. You know, there's a lot
of a lot of great Taylor.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Early Taylor Swift is just different, just hits different. I
will say it does.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
Your last option, which I think would be in the
four spot here is love Story.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Yeah. Well that's I'm comfortable with that being for why
is that? I don't know. I just feel like cruel
Summer and Tim McGraw are like Pete Taylor Swift. The
other my favorite Tailer Swift song though, is that one
is it's called style.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Good and that that's great, great ten, But that we
can put that in the honorable mention number six? Yeah,
some would say yeah. Another another category ranked these five things.
Category is embarrassing things. Okay, okay. The first one is
calling someone by the wrong name.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Oh, like five. I've done that so many times. I'm
so bad.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
But what about reintroducing yourself, so going up to someone,
that's always the worst.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
I've done that so many times, like parties and people like, yeah,
we've already met you twice tonight, I'm like.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Oh sorry, yeah bad? Do you Where do you put
that one.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
In the reintroducing yourself? I don't know. Probably four, honestly,
anything with names, like meeting people, it's it's not good
for me.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
What about farting publicly?

Speaker 1 (21:48):
Well, that should have been five in public? I don't know,
probably a two. Yeah, if somebody hears it, that's that's
pretty bad. You can't really play because you can't play
it all. Yeah, you just got to take out that
from that chair. You're the only one sitting.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
There like, hey, I'm the guy.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Sorry, guys.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
I think he got one and three left here. This
next one forgetting a good friend's birthday.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
Mm. Probably three, okay, probably three.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
And the last one is just telling a bad joke.
Telling a joke.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
One definitely number one for me because I do. I
feel like I'm funny, but I'm I'm probably not. But yeah,
I tell I cracked jokes all the time. And if
it doesn't land, because what ends up happening is if
it doesn't land, you just keep going and it just
gets really bad.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
It's a stand up bit that just gets you.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
Just keep going and nobody's laughing and you're just finally like,
I'm gonna leave the room now, I'm gonna exit stage left,
and we're gonna like that never happened. Yeah, that's an accurate,
that's accurate. That's number one for.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
All right, that was embarrassing things. And we got one
more and then uh, we'll move on here. But ranked
these five things, category is French fries. First one is
the waffle fry. M M.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
I'm gonna give that a three.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
Why is that?

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Well, they're easy to mess up. I feel like I
feel like, if it's just like a regular french fry,
you're good, But a waffle fry you can mess up.
But like Chick Filas never mess it up. But I've
definitely had waffle fries and I might just it. And
this is what they were not on today when they
made these. What about the a standard fry, regular standard fry,
two solid, two curly fries five We're gonna have to

(23:24):
talk about that. Sorry. Potato wedges one potato yeah, oh
my god. Yeah, I mean that's a bit. It's a
staple in Georgia. And if you get them from like
if you ever stop at like a gas station and
they have like potato wedges, get them. If you never
done that.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
What's what's so good about the potato wedge that makes
it a key player?

Speaker 1 (23:43):
Compared to that, there's more, there's more potato.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeah, So it's just it's just a bang for your
buck deal.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
I feel like that. I feel like it is a better.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Can ask you do you only eat in quantity?

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Me? Uh, definitely. I feel like yeah, yeah. And I'm
not a big foodie, so like I don't let people, oh,
this isn't cooked properly.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
I'm like, okay, yeah, you're you're kind of thinking about
how big is the play.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
How big is the plate? And I don't know. I
feel like I eat for nutrition. I don't eat for
a taste. I don't go to a restaurant and go, oh,
this is this. They really killed this, Mai mai. I'm like,
I just need to eat because if I don't want
to pass out right.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
And the the last one there was tater Tots, which.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Are, yeah, I'm not, I don't do tear tots.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Really, Tater tots are a pretty polarizing player. I really
feel like because I personally love tater tots, but I
love them when I have like like chicken, Like I like,
if I go to Sonic, I get Tina tots and
chicken and like the gravy and dip it in and
it's fire. But if I'm having like a burger, I
just want fries. I don't want the tots fair.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Yeah, I'm not. I just never did tots a lot.
But if I do eat tater tots, one of my
extra Chris we like really kind of burnal.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Really that's the problem. Part of part of the reason
why the tot isn't great is if you get the
sort of medium, rare, rare, tot. It just it's just
really bad. It kind of just sits in the mat,
and you know, you can't go play a sh after that.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
No, No, you're kind of traumatized. Really, you need like
one or two business days to get through the fact
that you just ate a uncooked exactly.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
I'll be back to you next week. I want to
talk about on uh on TikTok. After you post these
videos and at the end you say something that really
I think every every American needs to hear, every true American,
which is, tell your mama I love her bye? Yes.
Uh what is it about you wanting to tell everyone's

(25:36):
mama that you love them?

Speaker 1 (25:38):
I love the moms? Mm hmm, I love I love
the moms. Yeah, I don't know. I was. What I
was saying earlier is like it originated from me not
knowing how to work TikTok and I would like set
my phone up in my window sill in my college apartment.
I would play covers and I got I did like
a minute long video and it lasted like fifty three seconds,

(26:00):
and I didn't realize you could just stop the camera.
You could just stop it and post the video just there.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
You didn't know fifty three seconds you have to do
a whole minute.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
And so I just was like, uh, tell you what,
my lover, and just it ended and people loved it,
and that's just kind of been it. Like there's this,
that's been it. It's fun when the moms come to
the shows and they're like, we're the moms. Say that
you love me, and I was like, I love you.
It's just like I don't know, I just I don't know.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's just been it.

Speaker 1 (26:28):
I don't think about it too much. Obviously. I wasn't
thinking about it when I did it, but it's become
a massive part of who I am, and it's like
on all my merch I say it at the end
of shows. We had a really bad show. I can't
remember where it was. It may have been during CMA fes,
and I like walked off the stage and like just
was kind of out of it and I didn't say it.
And I got at least fifty DMS from people. They're like,

(26:49):
you didn't say tell your mama, lover. I was like,
I apologize, I really do.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
Were people asking for their tickets to be refunded.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
Right, They're like, well, I think it was the Whiskey
Jam on Whiskey Road there in Cmafes. I was like,
sorry if you had a bunch of upset fans after
all that. But yeah, it's just that's just kind of
become the thing. There's I literally see people and they're like,
you're the tell, You're the tell your mama lover. Guy.
I'm like, that is me. So I don't know, but
it just it was kind of an accident, but it's

(27:16):
become a thing.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
I love it, man. It's it's like the staple every
video that you post. It's it's just like a great
way to sign off and you've got some you have
some hilarious topics that you've been thinking about lately on TikTok.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
I don't know if thinking, I don't know. I don't know.
I don't have a lot of thoughts. I'm just kind
of talk.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
I'm kind of curious, like do you like, do you
just wake up and and kind of make these videos
and ramble the thoughts.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
Yeah, I just I just have thoughts and I'm like,
I'm gonna share this with the world. I'm not gonna
think this through. Like we were driving through where were
we driving through the other day somewhere in a landlocked state,
and my guitarist was with me and he was like,
I got food poisoning. I don't seafood buffet in Missouri.
One time, I was like, no shit, it's a landlocked state.

(28:01):
They don't have seafood. There's no cea. Yeah, And I
just got on TikTok and I was like, one thing
I'm not gonna do is ever go to a seafood
buffet and a landlocked state. It's just not But I
don't know. That's just the things that I just get
up and talk about on TikTok. Right, is there's I
don't play in the videos, which I feel bad because,
I mean I have friends that are like content creators
and they sit down for like six hours on Sundays
and they just plan out, and I'm just like, I'm

(28:23):
going today, I'm going to talk about why my shoes
don't fit right, and it's gonna get three hundred and
fifty thousand views. Yeah, for no reason whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
That's that's your thing, though, you know, I'm curious, what
what do you What are you thinking about today?

Speaker 1 (28:34):
What am I thinking about today?

Speaker 2 (28:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (28:36):
I don't know. I don't I don't really ever have
thought running through my mind. I don't feel like there's
like seven brain cells and they're just kind of all
kicking each other's ask to get the thought out.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
It's just it's just a one v one v one
v one v one, that's all it is.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
And it's just stuff just kind of comes out. But
that's the fun thing about the content that I make
is just like it's just kind of random. I just
kind of talk. I don't know, I'm really thinking about
what I'm going to order for lunch because I to
go write a song after this. That's probably I won't
start thinking about that about twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Yeah. That when when when you start kind of like,
you know, really thinking about that, you just let me know.
We can get off the podcast and we'll.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Go to we can go to Lunchjoe to launch Yeah probably, yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yeah. No, It's it's interesting. I kind of feel the
same way like older I get I think like sort
of the more cloudiness is just going on up here,
and I'm having a hard time articulating a lot of
stuff these days.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
I forget words a lot of the time.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Dude, words are hard, man, you know.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
There's so many of them. That's the thing, just kind
of and they're all chilling out there in space.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
What I started doing is like I just have caught
out words from my vocabulary. So I probably know about
sixty percent of the English language, maybe sixty five on
a good Dayly.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
What like what words did you get out and did
you do it intentionally or was it I'm just not
going to use this word anymore.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
It's a lot of like a lot of the three
and four syllable guys.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Are tough and more than ten letters is out well.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
In parkers like you can't like, for example, like responsibility, right,
I don't actually really know how many like eyes or
you know, L or t'ser in there. I think it's
just kind of all clouded in the middle. So I
just like kind of cut it out. And I don't
even because sometimes I'll say I'll say it wrong too.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Responsibility, Yeah, I get that. Yeah. I'm not big on
like the big words because when I was in college
and I thought I wanted to go to law school,
we'd be in like class and there would just be
a massive word and I'm like, I don't know what
this means? What means this? And I was like why
don't we just say that, right? Yeah, they're like, you know,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
There's always a there's always a shorter way to get
across what you want. And I feel like you and
I are advocates for that.

Speaker 1 (30:45):
The like the the less the syllables, the better for me,
exactly exactly. But yeah, this is not If any kids
are watching this, don't stay in school, pay attention, like,
go to class, don't skip class, Learn your big words,
and you're gonna be fine, yes, boy, because if you don't,
you're gonna have to pay an attorney to decipher a
text message for you because you don't know what the

(31:06):
word means. Save you some money.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
I want to talk about I want to talk about
new music. You put out a couple of records. You
put out a song Land that I love. You have
another song, grow next Door, comes out on February ninth,
and I want to is this like the first of
many songs on a project? Is it kind of just

(31:32):
a single?

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Like it's just a single. We're working on a full
length record right now, which is awesome. I enjoy like
I love making projects, Like I really enjoy that whole thing.
And I mean I know that like music's definitely changed.
We're in a different spot. Like singles are the thing,
and I love putting out singles, but like sitting down
working on a project. Like my EP five songs came

(31:57):
out in July last year, but it was like song waned,
like it tells a story, like the whole thing does.
We went out to La shot all the content, got
all the pictures, Like I enjoy doing that stuff, like
I love it. I love the whole Where are we
going to take the picture for the cover art? Like
what story do we want these, you know, these pictures
and these videos to tell. So being able to do
that now with the full length album has just been awesome.

(32:19):
I love that kind of stuff. I love listening to
records like I have a record player. I just love
going buying something on vinyl and listening to all fourteen
songs and just sit there. So I enjoy making stuff
like that. But Girl next Door, it comes out February ninth,
is just a single right now, really cool song me.
Jonathan Singleton Mikey Mobley wrote it. Jonathan saw a Instagram

(32:44):
caption from like his cousin and the caption was I'm
one house down from the Girl next door, and he
like brought the idea in and we we wrote it
and it's it is one of my favorite songs that
I've ever written. This is super cool.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Yeah, so yeah, I do like I do like the hook.
I like the melody of that a lot. You've been
playing it out I think a bit at shows. Do
you find that like when you're do you find that
the best? Like what's the best way for you to
test a song? Like do you post your song online?
Do you play it at a show? Like what's kind
of your your marketing show?

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, I mean I post them online and just kind
of see where people are at. But then getting to
play them live is just cool because I mean, if
it I mean, even if it's an unreleased song, you know,
I feel like if it's a good song and you
play it out live and people hadn't heard it, and
it like grabs people's attention, like, Okay, this is a
good song, even if they don't know the words. Because
I've also played songs live for the first time and

(33:35):
they've just been duds and you're just like, Okay, maybe
that's not you know, and you know, but that's cool
too because you're like, Okay, this doesn't go over. Well,
we've put it online a couple of times, nobody's interested.
You know, it doesn't mean it's not a good song,
but I mean we do walk a fine line between like,
you know, art and commerce, and it's like, you know,
you kind of have to, you know, put out stuff
that sells. But Girl Nextdoors going over great life. People

(33:57):
ask for it, people know. I mean, people were singing
the song this weekend, which is really cool. You know,
a song that come out people are already covering it, yeah,
which is also cool because I've never really had people
like covering my songs and they're putting it on TikTok
and I was like, Okay, this is lip, you know.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
But something people want to sound right.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
But it's super cool.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
It tells a cool story that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
So I'm excited for it, really proud of what what
we ended up making. But the record's going to be
fun too. Just we're kind of in the final stages
of like putting everything together and well we'll put out
a record. Yeah, Mama, We've made a record.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
There you go. I love it, dude, I love it. Well,
Logan's that Logan's got some new music. You guys got
to check them out. We have just a few minutes here,
so we're going to be right back and play one
more game and ask one more very important question. All right, guys,
we are back the six to one five House podcast.
We had Logan Crosby come to the studio this morning.

(34:50):
We've talked about quite a few things. One thing that
we haven't talked about, which I think is really important,
is there's a franchise in America known as Chili's Jesus
and Chili's has been known to take people victim under

(35:10):
their wing and they become obsessed for the end of time.
And when I think of somebody under the Chili spell.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
I think you a mother poster child.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
When when did the.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
When did your your love story with Chili start? Probably
when I was a small child. We had a Chili's
in Milleriteville, which in Milleville, Georgia, like there, we don't
have a lot of like I wouldn't say Fine Dinand,
but not a lot of restaurants just in general. And
so Chili's was. Chili's was a spot we would go

(35:43):
after church on Sundays. It was great. We would go
after soccer games, kind of go chill at Chili's. And
then I went to college and it was there was
one right down the road from where I lived. When
my freshman year of college, when I had zero dollar
in my bank account, we would like cook it home
and then we would go to Chili's and get a

(36:04):
like a lava cake. We would all split it and
that's all you would gain, and we would like there
was like six college kids that walk in and we
were like, we were like six waters and a lot
of cake and the lady was like, are you sure.
We're like, yeah, we will tip you well, we promise.
So that was that and then pandemic hit and there
was nothing. And then I guess I've rediscovered my love

(36:25):
for chilis. When we were out in La and we
had finished film and Claim to Fame and I got
blitzed and a Chili's with Kiki Farmer, I mean absolutely
tore up like shots of Jamison. Kiki Palmer was there.
She pulled up in like her g wagon and crocs
to a Chili's and we just got I mean me
and the cast and a lot of the producers went

(36:45):
and just Kiki, just in Sino California. Chili's absolutely annihilated
and I.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Don't create service, don't.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
I don't regret that at all. And I have told
that story and I will tell that story until the
end of time. That was Logan Crossby blitzed Chili's Kiki Palmer.

Speaker 2 (37:03):
Yeah, I love it, man, that's great.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
But yeah, I love a Chili.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
So you guys were you guys asked to leave the
Chilies when you were hammered.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
And I think they asked us to leave, not because
we were hammered, but because they're like, yeah, it's like
eleven forty five at night, and we're like, oh okay,
And it was like our uber had been sitting out
there and they took us to a bar where we
proceeded to get even more blitzed. So I love LA.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Yeah, yeah, I love LA.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
I love Chili's but yeah, no, I'd swear I fell
in love with Chili's. And it's cool now because I
have a relationship with the team over there and I've
got like a they did a Boys Amen Chili's collab.
Boys Men recorded the Baby Back Rips song. Yeah, and
they sent me a record like the thing printed on
a gold record and a Chili's T shirt that had

(37:51):
boised the men on it. It's probably the best piece
of clothing that I own. But you have lots of
Chili's merch. They make quilts, you know that.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
I didn't know that Chilies makes quilt.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Yeah, which one would not assume. I feel like I
first said first.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
Class, but I wouldn't put that. That's not on my
sort of card of Chili's merch. But bet you it's
pretty warm.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
It's very warm. I used it whenever I moved into
my house. They sent me a care package and that
was in there, and I had not bought any bedding,
so it's just me and a queen size mattress and.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
A chili like a bear battress.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Quickly, is this a pillow? What is this? Yeah, a
couch pillow. They sent me a cooler, which was great
because I didn't have a safe in my house yet,
so I put everything in my Chili cooler, and I
forgot that I would put stuff in there, so opened
up my Chili schooler one day. That was just cash everywhere, which, honestly,
if I'm robbing a house, the last thing I'm gonna
look for, like looking for money. I feel like it's

(38:45):
a small Chili's cooler.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
I feel like you've outstrategized the robber because at that point, yes,
let's say I'm gonna rob you. Okay, I'm going into
your house. I'm probably going bedroom first and looking night
side table for any sort of jewelry. Maybe I kind
of rip around into the bathroom see if there is
a safe nearby. But I'd say, what, I am surely

(39:08):
passing the chili's cooler thinking there's nothing in there, but
maybe like some leftover beer from there.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
Right exactly. Yeah. Yeah, it was sitting in my music
room and just kind of chilling in there with all
my guitars, and it's like, I just feel like, you're
not gonna You're not gonna look in there. Yeah, So
it was smart of me to do that, but it
was also I forgot that I put something in there,
so that was not smart.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
Probably probably one of the one of the moments we
saw those seven brain cells.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
Actually actually probably honestly that day only five showed up
to work.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
So it was like, right, well, I we do have
some good friends over at Ariat that have sent me
this pair al country Western brand and they like to
help us out with this segment. This is rapid fire questions.
So we're gonna get these up and running, and we're
gonna put Matt over there, producer, Matt. We're gonna get

(39:57):
sixty seconds on the clock. You might have seen this before.
Something tells me you're gonna be pretty good at this,
because the key here is not to think.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
Just go.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
Sixty seconds on the clock. Here we go three to one.
What was the last thing you bought on the internet?

Speaker 1 (40:14):
NFL football Jersey?

Speaker 2 (40:16):
Describe yourself in three.

Speaker 3 (40:17):
Words funny, bright, driven, sourdough or wheat bread?

Speaker 1 (40:28):
Wheat bread.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
What's the weirdest food combination that you have actually enjoyed?

Speaker 1 (40:33):
Probably eggs and mustard.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
What's the dumbest sport I'd.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
Pass, I don't want to be controversial, golf.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
What's a good ratio of beers or drinks to water
at a bar?

Speaker 1 (40:49):
Honestly one to one, but usually it ends up being
like twelve to one.

Speaker 2 (40:52):
Yeah, I think the Love and Christmas Party would agree.
Would you rather cuddle a baby panda or a baby penguin?

Speaker 1 (40:57):
Uh? Panda name uh Taylor Swift?

Speaker 2 (41:04):
That took a while. And last question, if there was
a movie made after you, what actor would be playing
the role of slogan cross.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
Uh, probably probably Jim Carrey or myself. I'm gonna write
my own movie and cast myself.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
Can't get off the screen.

Speaker 1 (41:21):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (41:22):
That was sixty seconds rabid fire questions presented by area.
That was lovely.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
That was great. It really was great.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I enjoyed that. Taylor Swift, Yeah, yeah, it took you
a minute to name a woman.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
It did because I was I've seen on TikTok where
it's like, name a woman, somebody's like my mom, and
it's like, no, like a famous woman. So I didn't
want to. I didn't want to clock myself out and
be like, you know, my manager and as I know,
the famous person.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, no, no, no, that's uh, that's that's Taylor.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
I feel like Taylor Swift is also the most famous
person in the world right now and woman.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
It is pretty crazy how much attention I've read this
article the other day that the NFL I think made
like three hundred and sixty three million dollars off of
like all the advertisements collectively right of her just showing
up to the game. I mean, it's it's the fact
that you can just show up to a football game
and move the US economy by that, which.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
I mean, it's insane. She is the biggest. I feel
like she's like the biggest pop star of our tom.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
I didn't think it could be done, like, you know,
since like el you know, maybe Elvis right or like
you know, Michael Jackson had his thing before the thing,
But she's doing it. She's doing it.

Speaker 1 (42:33):
Who's your Who's your? I don't want to this in
my podcast.

Speaker 2 (42:36):
No go ahead? Are you gonna take over? Go ahead?
You can take over?

Speaker 1 (42:39):
No, no, no, I just want to ask one question, who
is your favorite like celebrity?

Speaker 2 (42:45):
Oh man, that's a loaded question.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
And why.

Speaker 2 (42:50):
I figured that would come? I really, I mean I personally,
I like Dwayne the Rock Johnson a lot. The reason
being I think he does a lot with this platform
to like promote positivity and like motivation, you know. I
Matthew McConaughey am starting to read his book green Light.

(43:10):
Somebody actually recently on the podcast, it was Connor Smith
recommended that I read green Light, and I decided, Okay,
I'm gonna give a shot.

Speaker 1 (43:20):
So I love Matthew mcconaughe.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
What about you?

Speaker 1 (43:23):
Who's your Who's your favorite favorite celebrity? Mm? Hmmm, I
don't that's that is also a loaded question of all time.
Probably probably Elvis, God rest his soul. My grandma lived
on Elvis Presley Boulevard. Yes, so where is Elvis Presley Boulevard, Soaperton, Georgia. Interesting,

(43:49):
So A big fan of Elvis. So when the movie
came out like two years ago, I like flipped yeah,
and then like I met Austin Butler very briefly through
like a FaceTime.

Speaker 2 (43:59):
What was your interaction with Austin Butler?

Speaker 1 (44:02):
I dressed up as Elvis? So this is the So,
so I dressed up as Elvis for Halloween. I'lmost say Thanksgiving, honestly,
that would be little. That's when I started doing with
my family Thanksgiving. But so Elvis Day or Elvis. Austin
dates Ky Gerber, who is Cindy Crawford's daughter and Sidey

(44:23):
Crawford's niece was on claim to fame with me gotcha.
So we all followed each other on social media and
I dressed up as Elvis and I was like, hey, God,
look at me. I'm just as Elvis. And then Austin
came over and he was like you look great. I
was like, thank you, man, I appreciate it. It was the
worst Elvis costume you've ever seen anything like I have,
Like I had side burns, Like I just shaved my
face upside burns. It was terrible.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Yeah. Well at least at least he dug it. That's cool.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
Yeah, he thought it was great. It was a thought
that counts.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
I mean, really for sure.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
Yeah, He's or Elvis is probably my favorite. Keicky Palmer
close second.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Yeah, love for Yeah, shout out Kiki and shout out Chili's. Dude.
This has been It's been a lot of fun. Man.
I I am a big fan of what you're doing.
Thank you both, you know, as an artist and just
as like a brand. And you know you're you're making
people laugh, you're making people sing. It's uh, it's really great, dude,

(45:13):
It's awesome. What I'm what are you most excited about
this year?

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Oh, I'm playing south By Southwest in Austin, which will
be cool and hanging out down there for a little
bit just because I mean, I'm so into just like
entertainment in general, Like music is obviously like my thing,
but like I do come from like I came from TV,
and I would love to go back on TV at
some point host and just do different things. And my

(45:39):
career goal is to be an egot. So got to
get an Emmy and a Grammy and Oscar to Tony,
So I got a lot of work to do. But
I just enjoy entertaining people, which I feel like that
comes across like you said, you know, in the tiktoks
and just different things. And so south By Southwest will
be fun, just kind of being able to be around
a bunch of different types of creators. And then lots
of cool festivals. We're doing to Uga, playing the same

(46:02):
day as Jason, so I'll be the first show of
the night and he'll be the last, which is super cool.
Just like that's just awesome that I'm able to do that,
but I was out of that putting out a record
this year will be a lot of fun. Yeah, I
don't know, it's just I'm excited about everything and hopefully
it'll just get bigger and bigger and we'll see what happens.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
But I love that, man, and I love that it's
refreshing to hear you know that you enjoy the art
of entertainment. I think you have to have quite a
few people on this podcast and friends that have expressed
the frustration of for anyone that's not an artist out there,
it can suck. Yes, And the reason is you gotta

(46:40):
post eighteen freaking tiktoks a day, and you got to
post seven Instagram reels and take a photo shoot and
write a song and do this press and all this stuff.
And nowadays I feel like there's so much we're doing
outside of just writing the music and can get really overwhelming.
But at the same time, you know, I think you
have the power to sort of be your own brand, right,

(47:02):
and like your artistry isn't just you know, your music,
it's everything you put on the line. How have you
dealt with that process?

Speaker 1 (47:12):
I'm just being like overall entertainer artists the whole different thing,
or just.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
Yeah, I just how have you? How have you This
is the last thing that really I want to talk about,
but like, how have you been able to balance all
of the different avenues of what it takes to be
an artist?

Speaker 1 (47:30):
I think the biggest thing is I and I mean
this when I say this, and I know everybody says this,
and I genuinely think everybody means this, but I mean
this with everything inside of my human being when I
say this is like, I love my fans, I love
those people. I would take a bullet for all those people.
And so it's when I get up, it's not a oh,

(47:54):
let's go write a song, or oh let's go make content,
or oh I have to go do this. It's like
I'm doing this because I love those people so much
and I feel like we all, you know, shared something
you know in common. And it's like, now that I've
you know, really figured out being on the road, I
feel like it's the only way to really figure out

(48:15):
who your people are. And so it's like now that
I've done that for a year and I've been so
blessed to be able to go out with Megan twice
and Camera now and then Megan again, it's like I
know who those people are. They come to the shows,
they sing the songs, and it's like when I wake
up in the morning, like they're the literal first thing
on my mind is like what am I going to
do today to give them something? A song, content, make

(48:36):
them laugh like whatever that is. And it's like when
you see those people at shows or when they you know,
DM you and it's like, hey, like this song means
this to me or you know, I'm going through this
and your content or what you're doing is like helping
me get through it. Like that's the reason that I
get up and do it. And so it I mean,
like you said, it does suck. There's that. I mean,

(48:57):
nobody wants to, you know, be in five different cities,
five different days. You know you do, but it's like
you know you're running off for four hours of sleep.
You know, it's you're not home. I mean, I've had
to miss all kinds of stuff. I mean it's like
you know, people, people's birthdays, people literally in our family
and babies being born.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
You know.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
Last year was a huge year for me and it
was my sisters senior year of high school and I
was able to go to a graduation like that was
it So like you miss things and that sucks. But
it's like when I wake up and I'm thinking, Okay,
I'm doing I'm not doing this for me. I'm doing
this for these people because I love them and I
want to make stuff that they enjoy and that we
can share and that we can sing together and that
we can laugh at together. Like it just it makes

(49:37):
it so much better. I just love it. I mean,
that's that's kind of what has gotten me through it,
and so I don't know, but I that's just that's
my whole thing. It's just that's that's how I look
at it. And when I when I started looking at
it that way, it became so much more fun because they're,
like you said, there's a lot of pressure, and there's

(49:58):
a lot of things to balance, and there's lots of
people and there's so there's I mean, I feel like
I know you know this, Like you talk to people
back home or people that are getting into the industry,
and it's like they're literally thousands of moving parts of
this thing, and like that's why when you get to
such a high level you have a team of I
mean you some of these artists have teams of over

(50:18):
one hundred people that are just making things happen every day,
and it's like there's so many things going on and
it's just like and it does get stressful and it
does get overwhelming. But when for me, when that happens,
when those moments happens, I'm like, no, no, no, Like
you are doing this for your fans, right, And I
genuinely do because I love those people so That's what
makes it all so worth it to me.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
I mean, I just love beautifully said dude. And as
much as it can suck to be an artist, you know,
I think the reward, as you mentioned, is seeing somebody
will you know, laugh or smile or show up and
like have a night with you, or you know, comment
or whatever it might be. I think you're doing a

(51:01):
great job, and.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
I still look at it. It's like still I mean
even I mean, you played in front of thousands of
people and it still is just like the coolest thing.
When I see somebody beying my merch, I'm just like this,
you're buying my merch.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
This is it's like you clearly have the wrong booth.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
Or somebody's singing my song and I was like, they
know my songs, and it's like, you know, everybody's like yeah,
you've been like yeah, there's lots of people that know
who you are. And I was like, really, like, I mean,
I feel like if you look at it, you still
look at it like from a literally like a childlike
lens of just like the excitement. I just feel like
that just makes it so much more fun and so

(51:39):
it's so worth it. I love it. There's not a
better job in the world than what I get to do.

Speaker 2 (51:44):
I love that, man. I loved this discussion. Dude. You're
You're a fun hang to talk to, you man, and
I'm rooting for you, dude.
