Speaker 1 (00:00):
Bobby Boom all right, Amy story.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Yes, Morgan Walland was playing a show on Friday night
and there was like a what do you call it, tech.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Technical issue and he was performing on the piano and
then he got up and like push the piano.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
He was doing, stand in my boots and the piano.
Something's wrong. We just shoved it and fell over.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
And I saw that the audience felt divided over there,
like yeah, and then other people being like, well that
was very mature.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
So I didn't know how I feel I was actually there.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
How I felt was a real piano. Oh right, that's
literally how I felt.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Usually they're not. It's like a case that looks like
a piano and it's.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Just a keyboard in it. Really well, you think about
a real piano.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Because it's so heavy, yeah, and long.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
And you got it all the wire, so yeah, it's
a keyboard. But that's my first thought, was he just
pushed over a keyboard. Yes, it would take a lot
of effort to push over.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
A piano, right, Okay, I see it came about.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Push over a piano. I have to lift a piano up.

Speaker 4 (00:59):
And then what about one of the other ones, like
the old school ones, a.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Sandwy maybe, but even then it comes out and there
really has got Yeah, anyway, it's funny. Who cares? And
then he did sing acapella the rest of them.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, but I thought that part was cool.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
But anyway, Internet was divided where you divided.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
I mean I just was sort of like, oh, okay,
Like if I had a kid with me at the show,
I would be a little annoyed because like, that's not
how we handle inconveniences in life.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Like or that's the ultimate mom thing to say right there?

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Wait, what of course it is, because I would be
like okay, fiction and being like, well, next time they
get frustrated with something, they just like throw it at
school or something and they're like, well that's a Morgan
wallanded and it's like, okay, no, this is not how
we handle, you know, frustrations, or if.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
You don't mind another perspective, Yeah, how we handle frustrations
is that there's a piano and you want to shove
it over. Do that instead of going to shoot up everybody?

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Why does that always going with that?

Speaker 1 (01:55):
That's because everybody has guns and everybody's getting shot up.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
But that's so extreme, like you don't.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Have to actually take your aggression out with weapons or
physical violence. You need to shove the piano.

Speaker 5 (02:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
It made me think of the time too when I
remember when who is Jacoben said was canceled let's see
you may fast and he smashed his guitar. TV.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Yeah it's about It's about television, is why?

Speaker 6 (02:18):
Right?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
He didn't get to get on the TV special because
of the lightning, and then he got pissed and throw
his guitar.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
And then the next day we brought him in and
you do the whole.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Setting here and he was like, Okay, I guess.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
But out of this story though, I love that, Like
out of everything Morgan wall Is done, this is the
one thing is like, oh so immature.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Things that are immature for sure, But yeah, I guess
it is kind of like a rock star type move.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Also, it's like okay, let's learn to breathe through.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
It also could have been done on purpose too. I
don't think it was, but people set up stuff like
that a lot too to like look rock star or
to go viral. I don't think that was the case here,
but I do think this happens a lot where situations
are presented created so they do go viral on social media.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Right, yeah, but well dang, I was kind of like, wow,
it's he's strong too, But now are telling me.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Knocked it over?

Speaker 6 (03:16):
All?

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Right, lunch bugs.

Speaker 7 (03:17):
Yeah, once you pop, you can't stop. Pringles is back
with two new flavors. They have beer cheese burger and
beer braised steak. I don't know that sounds weird in
a potato chip.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
It's probably like a beer cheeseburger.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Be good on drinks. I can't have those beer cheese.
You know what's good beer with a cheeseburger? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (03:38):
Yeah, yeah, but you can eat these.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Not I know, I'm kidding. There's no alcohol in them.
I know drunk, I know, I know, But this is
your chance to taste beer. I don't beer smells like
it tastes bad and it's an acquired taste. So I
want to taste something that's an acquired taste. I'm sure
it tastes good.

Speaker 4 (03:54):
Like I remember my first taste of beer. I'm like,
I'm never drinking this. Look at me now, But.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
I know I can't get drunk by eating because they
used to do like those like whiskey smoked chicken at Chili's,
and I'm like, I never do I cant I'm not. Yeah, yeah,
that's what I'm not. Having my first drink on a
rib cake. Yeah, okay, well that does happen. Yeah, but
they still cook it cooked. I don't know about that.

(04:20):
I think rum cake is actually, but I'm not sure
that you're right.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
I assume that everything that's cooked into something that alcohol
is no longer.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
There, right, okay? In final alcohol volume from three to
five percent in rum cake. Yeah. Have you had rum cake?

Speaker 8 (04:37):
No?

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Because I don't want to get drunk baity cake good.
I have avoided that because I have felt like lunchbox felt,
I felt like there was still some alcohol. Is you
haven't had like non alcoholic beer?

Speaker 5 (04:47):
Right, oduleS?

Speaker 1 (04:49):
Why would? I? Just like Arkansas, Keith likes non alcoholic
beer because he drank beer for a long time and
I think he enjoyed that taste after a while. So
he likes to rinking non alcoholic beer because it doesn't
drink anymore to Iron never drink, so.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Trying to fill avoid.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
My brother like he quit drinking, so he just drinks Seltzer's,
but he'll buy like a case and and just the
feeling of feeling to pop and like it's it's you know,
like carbonated carmonated water.

Speaker 7 (05:20):
Oh you mean like a Seltzer Like I thought you're talking.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Like a like a Seltzer water.

Speaker 5 (05:30):
I was thinking, I'm like, well, Seltzer is alcohol.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
So okay, remove me. That does not sound good. What
about to you guys, because it's like I think it's
like corese Lighter the company doing it with it. Yeah's good,
but would you like Miller Lite beer brayed steak, give
it chips? Yeah, but it's not it's pretty good.

Speaker 5 (05:49):
Okay, it feels weird and chips.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
I just always find what about it an ice cream
beer ice cream because I've seen that before, Not steak
and ice cream, but beer ice cream, beer ice crea.
It's pretty good, it is.

Speaker 7 (06:00):
Yeah, Okay, see they so they have to be good, right,
They have to taste this on a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah, but I would assume that people that are tasting
it on there are people that like beer. But that's interesting.
Thank you for bringing it, yep, Morgan.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
So there's this viral video going up.

Speaker 8 (06:19):
There's a video of it, Eddie, you can throw it
up on the big screen. But this is over the
Philippine active volcano. Have you guys seen this video yet.
So there's a media that hits. It goes like straight
behind it, and you can see this media hitting. But
then something emerges.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
After the media hits.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
This is an AI. It's not AI.

Speaker 8 (06:37):
This is from like I verified, it was posted on
a far TV.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
For those that are listening to the podcast, you can
always go to YouTube to the Bobby Bones account and
watch it. And the media just went behind the volcano,
saw the medior.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
But keep watching it on the right side.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
I don't know if you'll be able to see it
because of how.

Speaker 8 (06:51):
Dark our screen is, but there'll be like this little
white thing that starts to pear.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
Okay, let's see here.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
So far nothing still see the lava, but our screen
is okay.

Speaker 8 (07:04):
And so everybody has a lot of questions about what
I heard after this?

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Could that be ash? No, because look at it floating
like a hyot's going now.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
It's like what is it? Like it didn't mean to
come down. It's like, oops, you gotta go back.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, well whatever, that is for sure that there's some
illumination there. Obviously that is not ASH. And now it's
going all the way above the volcano.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Right back, and it came right from where the metia landed.

Speaker 8 (07:30):
So there is an astrophysicist who says.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
That meteor, aside from the thing floating up that's the headline,
is not thing floating up? How big that metia was
to crash down behind that volcano. That looks like a missile.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
That looks really cool though.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
That looks like whenever we woke up and the Middle
East War was happening, and they were like, look at
all this stuff, that's what that looks like. Why is
it green like that? If the lava is red, why
is the well.

Speaker 8 (07:55):
It's not coming from the volcano, it's coming from space,
I know.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
But are they green? Well, our meteor is green. Heat
is different lights depending on how hot it is. Okay,
so the meteors generally aren't there. They're a color, but
how fast now hot they are will define what the
color is. And also our it just could be our
screen or the camera as well, because then what.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
I'm saying is the lava is the color. So the
meteor is like light.

Speaker 8 (08:24):
Green, and it is on the on the real video,
it's light green. That's what color the metea is.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
It also could be from the camera capturing it too.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
But again, the lava is the right color, correct, But
so that means that the meteor should be that is
the true color of the meteor, which is surprising.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
But are you sure that's the right color of the
lava just because that's the color, it's what is it? Yellow? Orange?
It looks like lava, you know, like it's.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
A green fireball. It's a light green meteor often referred
to as a.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Fireball, magnesium and nickel. I think you're right, Bobby.

Speaker 8 (08:57):
It's to do with what's in it and the heat
combination of the two.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
The hotter, it gets a different coloring. Yeah, it's just generally,
but also what's in it too, Uh, meteor's globe because
of intense atmospheric friction, vaporize specific metals inside the space rock, magnesium, nickel,
and iron. Yeah, that's crazy. That thing floating up is weird.
I don't know what that is because it definitely is
not a piece of ash, and it is going above
the volcano. But that looks like a missile.

Speaker 8 (09:21):
So the physicists came out and said that he claims
it's a satellite and the light is reflecting off of it,
But a satellite just happen to be at the same
place in time where a meteor just crashed and then
like floats right up.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Feels a little strange.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Do you see the media that explode over Boston? No,
this weekend boom over two s I just.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Saw people in Boston, like, yeah, freaking out about it.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Was like over the top of Boston. So I don't
think it like crashed anything houses or anything, but a
three foot daytime meteor and there was shaking across Boston.
There was a sonic boom that happened, and it broke
up in the atmosphere of May thirtieth, traveling at about
seventy five thousand miles per hour. It fragmented about forty
miles up and then it was Massachusetts, New Hampshire. So

(10:06):
that's a big one. You could have got on a camera.
I got went viral again. I know again.

Speaker 8 (10:10):
Is it crazy how many meteor stuff falls or stuff
falls from the atmosphere, and so often it misses houses
and people it lands.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Sometimes it hits them. I've seen like, well, if I
can play the math game, the Earth is three quarters water,
so just the odds that it hits land aside from
houses or humans not good. It's gonna hit water for
the most part, and then if you go into land
there like develop land. But yes, this is crazy. Yeah,

(10:36):
that's my meteor. I still have my meteor. You brought
it with you. I have it here all the time.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
You should light it on fire and see what color it.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Turns with the lighter. I brought it for doctor Laurie
to look at it.

Speaker 8 (10:49):
I think she said, why is it in like cotton
hair with a twig?

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (10:53):
Because they found it in a cotton field.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, really Eddie?

Speaker 5 (10:58):
All right.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
So mine was a viral video as well, but it
was a It was an image of a McDonald's worker.
Somebody was at the drive through and they took a
picture of the McDonald's worker working the fries and they
had they were chained to the fryar.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
No ankle, that's funny.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
Was chained the friar. And now everyone's like, well, why
would they be changed?

Speaker 1 (11:19):
What I'm hoping is it's somebody in a program trying
to rehabilitate themselves from prison, and not somebody that was
bad at work, because you can't change somebody if they're
bad at work or they're fryer. That's like so like
a hm, I don't know the reason. But in my mind,
I go, what I hope was this is like a
prison release program, giving it giving people a chance to

(11:40):
rebilitate themselves, get back in the workforce, have something on
their resume when they get out. Okay, not somebody who
sucked working the fry cooker before, because he keeps walking
away to be on his phone. Yes, what is the Internet?
All those things? Right?

Speaker 4 (11:56):
Like of course, lots of jokes, so just like, well,
somebody's not gonna wonder off anymore, you know that kind
of thing. But then on top of that, there was
another picture or another video of someone again a McDonald's
serving fries, taking the bite of the fries and then
putting them back in and serving them.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
I saw that one. That one was in Boston. I
think socks at yeahs lunchbox wants you to be punished.
I can tell about what he said there. When did
we talk about that, like last week or the week four? Okay,
that wasn't my story. I read, Oh good point. I
read so many stories. I don't know what we talk about. Sometimes.

Speaker 4 (12:33):
I know I look at a story, I'm like, gosh,
I'm gonna just risk it.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Maybe somebody talked about it Mike, what did you see
on that chain story? I think it's fake? Oh why.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah, I think it was a skit.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Okay, so here he was chained. Yeah, good stuff. There
you go. The Internet Eddie zero Internet one, No, no,
Eddie zero Internet forty two. Five things to look forward
to in June. It's crazy. Today's June first. H every
month it's new. We're like, it's crazy. It's the first.

(13:10):
Number one. The Stanley Cup finals start tomorrow, NBA finals
get going on Wednesday. The French Open tennis tournament runs
through June seventh. The World Cup gets underway June eleventh,
and the US team takes on the Team Paraguay on
the twelfth. So sports boom. There you go. The first
official day of summer is June twenty first, which also
happens to be Father's Day this year. Oh that's number two.

(13:31):
Cool number three. A ton of movies are hitting theaters.
Masters of the Universe, which comes out Friday. That's he
man like, we think.

Speaker 9 (13:38):
I think it looks pretty good. I wasn't a fan
of the show back in the day, like my older
brother was. Maybe a little bit more of you allze
Jenerator cartoon. Yeah, I love it, but I know how
massive it was.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
It was my favorite cartoon ad Characters at Castle, Gray Skull,
Lady Man, Skeletortur, Scary Movie six comes out. Steven Spielberg's
Disclosure Day comes out on the twelfth.

Speaker 9 (13:58):
That looks awesome.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
That looks awesome. Alien one Yep, you know I don't
like it when you say aliens non human origin one.

Speaker 9 (14:05):
Yeah, Emily blunts like a newscaster and the aliens speak
through her on TV Based.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
On to his story, Toy Story five's out June nineteenth.
Supergirl and Jackass both hit theaters June twenty sixth. Toy
Story five is interesting because the tss are going up
on billboards and they're saying that means Taylor Swift. It
also means Toy Story. But Taylor Swift has a certain
font she owns of TS. You can't just own TS.

(14:34):
There's a lot of things TS, but I believe a
certain font that she has a trademark for, and that
was on a billboard supposedly, and I look to try
to see if it was AI, and I don't think
it was Ai.

Speaker 9 (14:43):
Yeah, it's real.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
So they think that she's one of the voices, possibly
maybe a song too that. Yeah, so there you go
on TV and streaming, America's got talent and Love Island.
I saw they kick someone off Love Island because they
said the N word.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Yeah, some of our unserviced videos or whatever.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Got to hate an unsurfaced video also got to hate
the N word. Yeah, it's like they had to kick
someone off for that. Last year, same thing, same show. Yeah,
almost positive. Are they just chasing down people that probably
say the N word. I've never watched a Love Island,
so I don't know, but it's massive. Sweet Magnolias on

(15:23):
Netflix comes out. House of Dragon season three on HBO.
The twenty first Avatar The Last Airbender Live Action Avatar
The Last Airbender. What the heck does that mean?

Speaker 9 (15:36):
It's a different Avatar, not the Blue People.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
It's a different character, live action. Yeah, same story though,
what does that mean live action.

Speaker 9 (15:45):
Like real people acting it out because it's an animated show.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Like they've done live action line key, but.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Avatar was live action.

Speaker 9 (15:55):
It's a totally different Avatar. So it's a different franchise.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's altogether, it's not the same all. No, it's called Avatar,
and it's not the same Avatar.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
It's like an anime Avatar, Taylor Swift have a different
ts but they can't have like they can do.

Speaker 9 (16:09):
That wid I'm pretty sure it came out way before
The Blue People, Avatar and the final season of The Bear,
which I enjoyed.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
Season one, never really got back into it. What is
the final season? Three? Five?

Speaker 10 (16:20):
Yea?

Speaker 5 (16:21):
I still good?

Speaker 4 (16:23):
Yes, I finished one. I think maybe a little bit weird.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
I think that's why I couldn't get into season four.
But I could. I could, I could circle back.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
A Ward Shows, Tony Awards, BET Awards, CMA Fest. Yeah,
there you go. National Best Friends Days June eighth, Flag
Days of fourteenth, nineteenth is National Martini Day, and National
Selfie Day June twenty first, dude, Avatar, that's crazy, And
that's why I was confused at Live Action because part
of that movie Avatar is real people.

Speaker 9 (16:54):
Yeah about that?

Speaker 1 (16:58):
There we go on the Bobby Show.

Speaker 8 (17:00):
Now.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Corey and I had a brief discussion on text message
the other day and he said, hey, man, thanks don't
letting me come on your show, And I honestly didn't
know he was coming on the show yet, and I said, oh,
I had no idea. That's awesome. I can't wait to
see you. And then he said, oh, never mind, my
people haven't asked yet. Oh so his people had nass
and I didn't know anybody, and so anyway, it obviously

(17:22):
worked out. It's good to see you, man, Man, thanks
for having me again. I tell people too, because people
love you as an artist. And mostly if I'm like, hey,
who's real good, that's like making it, but you're waiting
for them to make it, make it like your name
comes up a lot, and don't say thanks to me
because mostly some other people. Mostly I just agreed. I'm like, yeah, yeah,

(17:42):
I love that guy. But what people thinks funny is
that your wife took pictures that like my family's yeah
wedding talk like Grayson DJ's wedding. His wife was taking
picture because they're there the photographer.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
Yeah, I know the way you say is taking pictures, right,
So will you.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Back that story? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (17:59):
Well my vantage point is, uh so, Dana, if you've
seen like all of our like this photo, all my
album art, Dana's like super talented photographer and she used
to do like she used to do weddings, but just
like selective if if she knew the people or if

(18:20):
it was in a really cool place. She would take
that that gig we kind of she kind of slowed
down on that just because keeps both of us away
on the weekends from all the kids. But this particular wedding,
she's like, I'm gonna do this one and and she
came back from that wedding and was like, I met
Bobby Bones and his wife and they were super nice,
and I'm going, this is like years ago, right.

Speaker 5 (18:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (18:40):
I'm like, she's you told him about me, right, She's
like no, I'm like what this could have This could
have progressed my career, Like what are we doing here?

Speaker 10 (18:51):
That's my vantage point of it. But I saw some
of the photos. It looked like a blast.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
It was a blast. Where'd you grow up? Specifically, uh, Bigsby, Oklahoma.
That's exactly where we were for weddings. Yeah, there's awesome
sonic there, and I know, I know that's our only claim. Well,
it's kind of how I know places like towns are
as good as their sonics are strong. There was a new,
really strong sonic there and I know you guys from
sports in Oklahoma now yeah.

Speaker 10 (19:17):
Yeah, Bixby's kind of become a like a football dynasty
out there. It was not that way when I was there.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Oh, they weren't good when another kid.

Speaker 10 (19:25):
We were a wrestling school when I was growing up.
But my little brother who just graduated, I think that
they lost one game in four years that he was there.
Something like that.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
I mean, that's what I know them for. Is like
being dominant at football.

Speaker 10 (19:38):
State title after state title after at the highest level
was crazy. And that town has I think like three
or four x in size since since I graduated.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Well, you get a big sonic, everybody comes running. I know,
it's how it works. Well, you tell them the story,
because I don't think they know it because they're all Texans.
They got a room full of tech, not me, are
you really?

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (19:59):
We got all Can you tell them you're Willie Nelson's story?
Oh yeah, do you guys know this story? Okay, you're
gonna there is the greatest story I've ever heard.

Speaker 10 (20:07):
Okay, dude, Yeah, because we talked about this on the
podcast so I was sixteen years old. We got to
preface this by the reason that I love Willie Nelson's
music is because my grandfather, who a couple months ago
passed away. He was like he was my person. Uh
so this story is like, it is really fun for
me to think of just one of my favorite memories

(20:29):
with him. So my uncle buys my grandfather tickets, like
really good seats, like third or fourth row seats to
Willie Nelson. And I think Willy's in his late seventies.
At this point, I'm sixteen years old. I just got
my driver's license, and uh, they they come to the house.
They live in Broken Bow, Oklahoma, and so they came

(20:49):
up to the house because he was playing in Tulsa,
and obviously our house is closer to Tulsa than there,
so they were staying at our house. And my uncle's like,
you should really think about, you know, getting a ticket
to this show, because Willie's a legend. You haven't seen
him live, you love country music. This might be your
last chance to see him. Little did we know he'd
still be touring like now one hundred years later, you

(21:11):
know what I mean. But anyways, I was like, you're right, So,
sixteen year old kid, I don't have any money. Tickets
are expensive. So I was like, well, I'll just drive
up there and I'll wait outside and you know, get
a ticket from somebody scopping tickets and.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's what I did.

Speaker 10 (21:26):
I waited till about ten minutes after the show. I
got a ticket from some guy who was just trying
to make a buck off of him, and once the
show starts, you can't really make any money off him.
So I got a ten dollar ticket and I walked
in and at this point in my life, I I
like couldn't really enjoy a concert because all I could
think about is like, what would I do if I

(21:47):
was up there? Would I be ready? What would I sing?
Would I be ready for that moment? And uh, you know,
obviously that's never happened. But I've gone to a lot
of shows and I've had that same feeling, and this
night just felt a little different. And so I'm up
in the nosebleeds with a ten dollars ticket and I
walked over to this sweet lady at the concession standing

(22:07):
and I was like, this is gonna sound super odd,
but do you have any like cardboard or anything? And
so she walked to the track, she pulled out a
piece of cardboard and handed it to me and she's like,
what do you want this for? And I was like,
one other question, do you have a sharpie I could use?
And she got me a sharpie and I wrote, it's
my dream to play a song with you. And I
didn't know what I was gonna do with that sign,
but I ended up in the nosebleeds. And one thing

(22:31):
that you also have to understand about my grandfather is
that he loved makers Mark, and you add Maker's Mark
and Willie Nelson like he's having the time of his life. Anyway,
my uncle calls me, He's like, did you make it in.
I was like, yeah, I'm way up here, and he's like, bro,
I need a beer, Like I need you to come

(22:52):
sit down here with your grandfather and make sure he's
all right. And because my grandfather's like third row, eyes closed,
Willie Nelson's playing hands.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
Up, he's feeling it.

Speaker 10 (23:00):
He's it is a spiritual experience for this man. So
I tried to walk down there and I got stopped
by a security guard that you had to have like
a wristband to be on the floor or whatever. And
I was like, this isn't gonna work. I walked back up,
walked around to the next the next security guarden. Just
I was like, I just got to act like I
belong here, walk straight through with my sign. I sit

(23:23):
down next to my grandfather and I'm like, this is
my chance, you know. So I hold this sign up
and holds it up for a couple of songs and
the guy behind me is pissed because I'm blocking his
viewer and these people pay good money for this seat,
right Like, So I hold the sign up and Willie
sees the sign and he leans over and he takes

(23:43):
his bandana off his head and he throws it to me.
It's like a very obvious, like thanks for being here.
Put the sign down. So, of course, being you know, naive,
bullheaded sixteen year old me, I take the bandana and
I put it in my pocket and I'm like, that's crazy.
I got a bandana from Willie Nelson. Then I put

(24:05):
the sign up and he leaned over again a couple
songs later and he threw me another bandana, and I
was like, this.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Is great, man.

Speaker 10 (24:13):
I was like, I was like, hey, Papa, check this out,
like open your eyes for a second. I got a
bandana for you, and uh. And then I put the
sign back up and uh. And the third time he
leans over, he throws me another bandana. I'm not kidding this.
The third bandana off this guy's head and I grabbed

(24:33):
it and I looked behind me and I talked to
the guy behind me, and I was like, bro, I'm sorry,
I gotta do this, but you can have this bandana, Like,
hopefully this buys me a little grace here. I put
the sign back up and he leans over and he goes,
all right, what do you want to play? And up
to this point in my life, I've been in this
western swing band for like five years. From age eleven

(24:55):
to sixteen, I was part of a Western swing band
which plays like Bob Will's the Texas Playboys. It was
basically like a cover band for that, But I knew
that nobody in that place wanted to see a random
sixteen year old kid sing on the road again or
blue Eyes Crying in the rain, like they want to
hear Willie sing that, right. And I also knew that

(25:18):
Willy loved Bob Wills, like that's one of his biggest inspirations.
And I'd seen him play this song called Milkow Blues,
which is one of my favorite songs to sing that
I played in my band. So he leaned over, he goes,
what do you want to sing? And I said, milk
Coow Blues, and I could see his eyes get like,
what does a sixteen year old kid know about nineteen
thirties dust bowl aer you know Bob Will's music. And

(25:40):
he's like, all right, get up here, and so it
was like a mad dash, like a blur of time.
They escorted me over. They started the song like we
didn't talk about what key is this gonna be in?
Like it could have been an absolute train wreck. It
could have been terrible. If they started that song too
high or too lo, I wouldn't have been able to
sing it. But they played in the exact key that

(26:01):
we played it in. And I walked up there and
he goes, what's your name? And I was like Corey Ken?
And he walks up to the mic and he goes
Corey Ken everybody. And the coolest moment, I think still
to this day, the coolest moment in my career was,
you know, Willy obviously doesn't know if I can sing
out all like I could have been terrible. So he's

(26:22):
right there next to his mic, basically ready to take
over if I get up there and bomb and uh
I start singing the fruit Will. I woke of this
morn in and I just saw this like huge grin
on Willy's face of like.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Oh thank god, this kid can sing, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 10 (26:39):
And he gets his big grin and he just nods
at me and he lets me sing the whole song.
And in the middle of the song, I'm like, nobody
at school is going to believe this on Monday, like
and nobody sixteen years old is at this Willie Nelson concert, Like,
nobody from my school's here. So I pull out my
phone and I'm like, I'm gonna snap a quick picture

(26:59):
while they're taking a solo and I'm like, my hands
are shaking. So I take this picture and it looks
like the ghost of Willie Nuson, Like you can't tell
you can't you can't see anything. And so get done
with the song and he's like, hey, come backstage after
the show. I'd love to talk to you. And they
send me back to the seat and I sit down
and I'm like looking at my grandfather and he's still

(27:21):
eyes closed, hands up. I'm like, did he he didn't
even see this? Man?

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Like I don't even know if he knew what.

Speaker 10 (27:28):
Was going on. But I sat back down and I'm like,
dang it, this is this is like the coolest moment
of my life and nobody's gonna believe it and there's
gonna be no proof of it. And I sit back
down and the guy behind me taps me on the shoulder.
He's like, are you gonna leave that sign down now? Like,
am I gonna be able to watch this show now?
And I was like, yeah, I'm so sorry about that,

(27:49):
and he goes, well, here's my card. I got the
whole thing on film and he had a handicam. Wow,
So the only video that exists is from that poor
guy that was, you know, blocked the whole time. But
that after the show, I got to talk to Willy
for a few minutes and I was like, Hey, if
you have any advice for a kid that wants to

(28:10):
take a real stab at this this music thing, what
would it be. And he goes, It's easy. You gotta write.
You gotta write great songs. And if you don't know
how to write great songs, you got to go spend
some time in Nashville, Tennessee, where some of the greatest
songwriters in the world live, and uh, and that's what
I did. Six months later, I was seventeen years old.
I packed up, and I moved out here, moved I
slept in my truck till I made some friends and

(28:31):
then crashed on their couches and tried not to overstay
my welcome. But I've still not been able to reconnect
with Willy. But that night changed my life, changed the
trajectory of my life. And and uh, yeah, now we're here.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Tell me that's not a top five story. Yeah, it's
one of the greatest stories. Yeah. I watched the video
and it's like, I'm not sure the brand, but you're
on like an under armour pullover, you got a short haircut,
buzz cut, blue jeans. I mean, he just look like
a kid who was just playing baseball and then decided to,
you know, go to the show. And you do see
Willie just like smiling at you from the side, like,

(29:05):
oh he's got this and he like it like tickled him. Yeah,
you could tell it was. Uh.

Speaker 10 (29:10):
I mean, he's one of the obviously, he is one
of the people who enjoys live music on a completely
different level. I mean he's he's still doing it like
it brings him so much joy, and you can just
tell in every show and he's playing with family members
up there and everything. It was just I don't know it.
That night really just solidified like what I wanted to do,

(29:31):
but also just like built in this inherent love for
live music.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Like I think I just caught the bug.

Speaker 10 (29:37):
From from him.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Did you just have a fourth kid? I did? How
long ago?

Speaker 10 (29:42):
Six months?

Speaker 1 (29:42):
How's that going? Well? Pure chaos four? Pure chaos.

Speaker 10 (29:47):
Yeah, as far as live but she it's I'm my
wife and I were talking. I was like, I don't
know if if we got lucky on the fourth one
or if we finally figured something out. But she is
like the chillist, and it's like she knows she's the
fourth and that we didn't have any more capacity, you know.
So it's it's been really it's been really nice, and

(30:08):
I feel like knowing like this was kind of our
last hoorah. I think we just kind of approach it
with a different mentality. I think we just have like
a little more patience and we enjoy the like small
moments a little more.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
How old is your oldest? Eight?

Speaker 6 (30:24):
So?

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Was it always you were gonna have four kids? Was
that what you guys had talked about? Or do you
just keep going because you enjoyed it?

Speaker 10 (30:30):
We always thought we'd have like three, and really we
didn't know my wife's one of four, so that probably
plays into it a little bit, but we didn't know.
We thought we were done after three. And then in
December of last year, we had a miscarriage that was

(30:51):
kind of unexpected. The pregnancy itself was unexpected, obviously, like
we had never walked through that, and that was like,
I I did not understand like the devastation that came
along with that. Like I when when somebody else would
be like, hey, this is what we walked through, I'd
be like, man, I'm so sorry, but I had a
hard time like sympathizing with that. And then after walking

(31:13):
through it, I'm like, and you know what these these
kids become, you know, those relationships and what they what
they grow into, And it was just devastating. And I
think that that was the moment that we realized, Okay,
well maybe we're not done. Like we we wanted this
more than we thought we we did. And so, uh,
thank god, Mike, you know, baby Ivy is here and healthy,

(31:36):
and but it's, uh, it's pretty cool to hear our
kids talk about it because they're like, they are very
adamant about we have. We have five kids in our family.
We just have one up there and we'll get to
meet her or him someday. But yeah, that's a not
to bring the mood down or anything, but that's that's
the story. That's the real raw story of how we

(31:57):
ended up, uh with four kiddos and life is just
full and chaotic and fun. And it's really nice to
u like they don't care at all about my music,
like they I'm just dad, you know. So it's nice
to have just like a really stable place to go
home to people that love you for you, not for

(32:17):
a platinum record on your wall or whatever.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
Do nice flexed on that in there at the end, Yeah,
well real, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know sing
or the platinum record on the wall.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (32:30):
I always just say, like, you know, someday, like people
aren't gonna care, you know, someday they just everybody, even
even some of the greatest of all time who have
achieved everything. Like I think that that fades, But I
like measure. I'm like trying to project out a bit,
and I think like success to me is like do

(32:52):
my kids still want to hang out with me when
I'm older and they've grown up? And like, how full
is my table? You know, when the music's gone, and
hopefully that's not for a long time. But yeah, I
just never wanted to have like personal life regrets. And
you know, it's hard enough making it in music, right,
like just to break through and become somebody that people

(33:13):
are paying attention to. And we were like, man, that's hard.
You know what we should do is have four kids
in the middle of.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
That and make it are really hard, you know, like.

Speaker 10 (33:21):
The hardest part of raising kids and the hardest part
of building a career. Let's do it all at the
same time. But it's beautiful, it's chaotic, it's it's just full.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
You moved from Texas to Nashville. Then I know you
moved back to Texas. Are you still in Texas now? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (33:39):
Moved there like really right, a few months before the pandemic,
and that was like, yeah, I live in Salina, Texas.
And it's kind of a if it ain't broke, don't
fix it approach, but yeah, we moved back. I got
dropped as a songwriter. I was writing songs for other
people and just randomly got a phone call one Monday

(34:02):
that said, hey, we really believe in you. We think
that you have, you know, all the potential in the world,
but you're fired. And I was like, dang, this is
a terrible time. We just bought our first house out
in Dixon, Tennessee, we just had our first baby, girl
out here, and I lost my job, you know, and
so we were like, well, we want to raise our

(34:24):
kids around like, you know, my grandfather and my grandmother
like super close to me, and my wife's part of
a big Italian family and families everything. So we were like,
we want to raise our kids with that. We want
to give them that. And the only thing that was
keeping us in Nashville was at that contract rite, and
so when that kind of dried up, we moved out

(34:44):
to Texas and I was like, all right, I'm getting
the band back together. We're gonna buy a van, we're
gonna go hit the road. And everybody here in Nashville
was like, dude, if you want a music career, you're
basically committing career suicide by leaving, Like it's not gonna
that ain't gonna happen. And I was like, man, well,
we're just gonna We're gonna give it all we got.

(35:04):
We're gonna go build it the way that, you know,
the only way that I knew how to build it,
which was showed by Show on the Road. And as
soon as we got there, like the world shuts down
for a couple of years. It's like it was just
the worst timing.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
So no to You're getting no publishing money because you're
not not writing anymore, and now you can't tour to
make money. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (35:23):
It was the first time in my life, in my
adult life, where it's like what do I, How am I?
How am I gonna make any money? New baby, new baby? Yeah?
It was. It was brutal. So shopped around, tried to
get any work that I could, worked at a motorcycle shop,
worked at a pavement company, and just kept taking it.

(35:44):
We sold our house in Dixon, Tennessee, and we made
like sixty thousand dollars on that house. And when when
the world started finally opening up and early twenty twenty one,
really Texas kind of opened up earlier than the rest
of the world. Maybe not floor, but.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
Uh not Tennessee either. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 10 (36:03):
So I was the only gig that I had was
playing at a taco shop in Louisville, Texas, and I
was just I was doing that for like fifty bucks
and free tacos, you know, and but I just had
to do I had to play somewhere, like I just
I couldn't not play. It just was like for me,
and uh yeah, I mean we just kept We took

(36:24):
that sixty thousand dollars and in twenty twenty one, we
were losing like one or two thousand dollars a night
opening up for Randy Rogers and Josh Abbott were getting
paid like two hundred and fifty bucks, and obviously you
got to pay the band, and we rode that money
all the way down to within a thousand bucks. And
then wild as Heart came out and it it changed everything.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
So when you say wild As Heart came out, what
do you mean, like you just put it up on
streaming and then it popped in a way.

Speaker 10 (36:55):
So we had put we had been putting out songs
like every six to eight weeks, just religiously, and then
at the end of that we put out eight or
nine songs and it was like the end of twenty
twenty one and we were like, well, we kind of
accidentally created a record, so we packaged it. We called
it twenty one and it kind of it did really

(37:17):
well for us, especially in Texas. We were starting to
see people show up at these shows and we were
kind of transitioning from the like the desired opener to like, oh,
we can sell our own tickets now. And then I
had this next song while I just heard just like
in the can ready to go. But the record had

(37:39):
just come out in December, like late December, and I
remember talking to some people that I look up to
and respect, and I'm like, what what do you think
I should do next?

Speaker 5 (37:48):
Like I have this song?

Speaker 10 (37:48):
Should I put it out? And everybody's like, don't put
it out. You gotta let you just put out a record.
You gotta let it breathe, you gotta let it have
its moment. And I was just like, I just don't.
I don't feel like anything that I've ever done by
the book has worked ever, Like my everything has been backwards.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Right.

Speaker 10 (38:05):
You moved to Nashville, you think you got a job, right,
and you get dropped, moved to Texas. You're gonna hit
the ground run and you're gonna build it on the
road and the world shuts down, right. And So I've
been putting out this this music and I was like,
I just we've been consistent, we should just do it again.
So we put that song out in early March, so
just you know, two months after releasing a record and

(38:29):
it it was doing okay. And then I got a
call from my manager, probably a month or maybe a
couple months after the song was out, and he was like, hey,
I think you're having a moment on on social media.
And I was like, what does that even mean? Because
I'm I'm I'm very involved in like the creation of content,
but I'm not super involved in like how we roll

(38:52):
it out and the posting of it and all that.
That just it drives me crazy. So I don't. I
don't do a lot of that part of it. And
he was like, You've got people making so many videos
to this song. And it just kept growing, dude. It
became a gold record while we were an independent band
in Texas, you know, rolling around in a van, and

(39:14):
it just kept going. And then we were playing a
biker bar in McKinney, Texas, and twelve different record labels
showed up and eleven people offered way yeah, and obviously
not all based on that song. They came to the
show and we were playing like two hour sets, and
we had sold out this little biker bar, maybe four
or five hundred people. But they knew all the the

(39:36):
they knew the twenty one record, they knew the from
the West record, the stuff that we've been playing for
a couple of years in that in that scene, and uh, yeah,
we got eleven record deal offers, and we picked the
one that we thought was the best team that would
fit with us, and they took it to radio. And
now it's a U triple platinum. Yeah, flex it, flex it,

(39:56):
freaking number.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
One hit, platinum, number one hot.

Speaker 10 (40:00):
But to me, I'm like, I say that because I'm like,
how crazy is that that song? Like we celebrated that
song going number one in a van, Like it just
was like this rags to Rich's moment of just like,
how what are the actual odds that you would get
dropped moved to Texas? COVID happens. You keep putting out

(40:20):
music and then eventually one becomes I mean it's still
being played on the radio. It was just, uh, I
don't know, and and hitting all those lows, you know,
working at the pavement company doing something I was terrible
at that. I wasn't you know, I wasn't passionate about
just trying to get by, like hitting those lows. It
when I finally got back to playing music, even though

(40:41):
we were losing money every night, like I was happier
than I had been in a long time, and I
was like able to fully be I was like just
filled with gratitude that I was able to do what
I love to do again. And so I don't know,
I tell that story and I was like a, like,
look at what this song did and how big this
song is. Just like the odds of that happening were

(41:01):
so slim, Like I really thought that maybe music for me,
maybe uh maybe the fulfillment that I was looking for
was gonna just come from playing at the taco shop,
you know, And that was that was maybe reality for me.
But I was still gonna do that because I learned
through that process that like, I love this, I have

(41:22):
to do this for me, but obviously super grateful that
these songs have connected with people and I get to
do this for a living and take care of my family.
It's uh, it's a dream, man.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
I saw you teasing a duet. Have you announced that yet? Uh?

Speaker 10 (41:38):
No, I haven't announced it, just teased it.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
I feelt titillated.

Speaker 10 (41:43):
Right now.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
Is a good one? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (41:48):
It's pretty, it's pretty, it's pretty dope.

Speaker 1 (41:50):
You said, no, it's not very good. I was.

Speaker 10 (41:56):
I was in the studio actually last week that was
kind of the last like putting the bow on the record,
this this feature and yeah. I looked over. The guy's
manager was there, and I was like, you know how
crazy this is for me? Like this guy's music the
person you're not saying the person I'm not.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
Saying, but you're saying it's a guy's.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
And it's somebody that the engineer was impressed by.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
I was picturing a girl.

Speaker 10 (42:22):
Okay, go ahead, Okay, Well, I was like the music
that you know that this this particular dude's music was
like really influential and and in my career and kind
of the lane that I ended up in in country music.
And I'm sitting there like, hey, what if you try this?

(42:43):
And then it just hit me. I was like what
am I? Like? How did I get here? Like I'm
making music with a guy that has influenced my music
and he's like, yeah, that's a good idea. And we're
just going back and forth as as peers, and it
was just a I don't know, I don't know if
other people feel this way, but it's just a crazy
It's just been. It's been a crazy journey for me.

(43:04):
And I still feel like the regular dude that's working
at the pavement company that gets to make music and
to be in there with like, you know, a guy
I really look up to who's done it at a
high level for a really long time.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
It just like.

Speaker 10 (43:19):
It's just crazy. It's like those moments where you life
almost forces you to stop, slow down enough to smell
the roses, and you're like, man, just life could have
ended up so differently.

Speaker 1 (43:32):
Okay, I made a list don't react, don't react. Obviously,
number one on my list just guesses, don't react, can't react.
It's Willie Nelson just because of that story. And number
two is going to be like Evan Felker from Turnpike.
Number three is going to be a Pat Green. You're reacting.

(43:56):
I'm not reacting. I also like a stony LaRue or something. Oh,
it could be really anyone because he's a Texas guy. Yeah,
you know, we all live in Texas for a long time,
so I'm thinking about, like, who are the people that
we and those guys have been doing it for a bit.

Speaker 3 (44:14):
I feel like with Willie though, I just this is
just my first thought when you said that, I don't
think he would suggest anything, like, you know, he said
they were going back and forth as peers.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
That's a great point.

Speaker 3 (44:31):
Why don't we go ahead and try to take that down?
And like he'd probably just sit back like this, that's
probably off the table.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
How did the Co Wetzel song come together?

Speaker 9 (44:44):
Then?

Speaker 10 (44:46):
Oh man, this is a this is a fun one.
So Co and I have been kind of playing quite
a few shows together, just getting build on the same things,
you know, a lot of kind of musical fan overlap,
and so got to spend some good time together hung
out in Denver one night, and uh, I just realized
how much cooler Coat was than me because he was

(45:06):
hanging out with like Justin Gaechee and all these like
top tier UFC fan. I'm such a huge UFC fan.
But uh, we were just hanging out and just that
relationship naturally developed. And uh, I've been a fan of
how Co has built his career for a long time.
He's been you know, kind of outside of the mainstream
for a bit, but just just built this this huge fandom,

(45:30):
like he is a lot of people, especially in Texas,
uh and in that that.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Area of the world.

Speaker 10 (45:36):
He's a lot of people's favorite country artist. And anyway,
so I've respected him for a long time, looked up
to him in a lot of ways.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
And anyway, I wrote.

Speaker 10 (45:45):
This song Rocky Mountain Low, And one of my favorite
things about country music is like I think the challenge
of being a good narrator, Like I know, a good
example is like I know Garth Brooks didn't get shot
by his ex wife, but I love hearing him seeing
thunder rolls, you know what I mean, Like George Strait
was is masterful storyteller. And you know, I even think

(46:07):
like Hardy waiting the truck, like I know he's not
in prison, but damn I believe the song. It's just
so good. Like some people can tell stories so well.
So this song felt like a really cool challenge to
like can I tell this story well? But it got
to the second verse and wrote it in the day
that we wrote it with you know, three of my buddies.
I was like, man, this just feels like this almost

(46:27):
feels like CO wrote this verse. And so I texted
him the song and to get a duet across the
finish line is like impossible. I mean, there's just especially
if you guys are both on labels and you got
you know, management, and just so many peoples.

Speaker 5 (46:42):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (46:43):
So I sent the song to Code and he was like, dude,
I am in like, this is a song. And I
was like, what if we just do it and don't
tell anybody? And so that's exactly what we did. We
booked a studio out in Cisco, Texas, and booked the
film crew and we went out there and we cut
the song and we turned it in and I said, hey,

(47:04):
I want this to be the first thing off the
new record. I think this is the this is the
perfect thing to go kind of set the tone for
the next chapter of country music in my career. And
you know, three days later it shipped to radio. Like
to my team's credit, they won, they didn't they didn't
get in the way of that. They were really fully

(47:26):
behind it. But two, it was like, you know, in
today's world, everything's very data heavy. It's like all the
song's gotta it's got a stream x amount for X
amount of time, and then it'll go to radio if
it hits all these benchmarks and and we were just like, man,
we really co and I both really believe people are
gonna dig this song, Like our fans are gonna like this,

(47:48):
and we should just follow that and like forget the data,
Like we still there's still a place for like taste
making and country music. Like I'd tell this dumb story
about like getting my son to try steak for the
first time. He's like, well, it's not a cheeseburger. I'm like,
just close your eyes and try this. You don't know
you're gonna love this, but you don't know it yet,

(48:09):
and you know it takes for a buy. He's like,
this is amazing, you know. And I still feel like
that is that is a responsibility of artists. But I
think we kind of lose the forest for the trees
sometimes and we want to know without a doubt that
a song's gonna work. But the beauty of this was

(48:31):
like we followed our gut, we followed our intuition, and
we put this song out and it's been the fastest
fastest climbing radio single we've ever had, and just like
a really a really cool and different texture to in
the country music landescape it should have been a fun,
fun thing. But uh yeah, I kind of took a
page out of Coast Book and we just did whatever

(48:51):
the hell we wanted to do.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
That's definitely a page out of Coast Book. Yeah, that's
the pay that's the book he wrote. Yeah, does of
whatever he wants whatever, and I respect him for.

Speaker 10 (48:59):
It me too, man. I mean that's kind of like
what we were talking about earlier. Just the way that
he's gone about his business is like silence the noise,
follow your gut, and it's worked out pretty well for him.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
So, new album you just announced, a Heartland rock and Roll.
Is there a data when you put it out? I
think there is, or like an era a month or something.

Speaker 10 (49:19):
Yeah, September, I know it, September. I think that they
put a specific date on there.

Speaker 1 (49:24):
How many songs fifteen? Did you have more than that
and you had to like cut it down to fifteen? Yeah?
Is that hard?

Speaker 10 (49:30):
It is tough, man, especially in an era where people
are putting out thirty five song records. But you know,
I got to be realistic about where I am in
my career. I don't think people have the I don't
have the attention span to listen to thirty five songs
from anybody. So I just like, I don't know, I
think fifteen's a good a good number. I have only

(49:53):
really put out like ten eleven twelve song records. That's
kind of been my formula of just onto the next.
But this one, man, to be honest with you, I've
obviously been proud of any record that I've put out,
because like, you work hard on them and you believe
in the songs. But like when I think of Stapleton,

(50:13):
I think of the Traveler Record, When I think of
Eric Church, I think of the Chief Record, when I
think of Kings of Leon, I think about Come Around Sundown.
Like there's just certain records that I just you know,
John Mayer, I think of Continuum. There's just certain records
that are just catalyst in these people's careers. But it's
just what I think about when I think about that artist,

(50:34):
and I've never really felt like I had that, And
I think, really, for the first time ever, I'm like, man,
this might be the record that when people think about
my name, they're going to think about this record. And
that's an exciting place to be. And so I just
didn't want I finally got some time. You know, you
have to put out music so fast, I think, faster
than ever. Finally just was like stop rushing, like trust

(50:58):
the process. Let's just make the best record we can
possibly make, and when it's done, it's done. And if
it's not done, then we don't put it out yet.
And it just it took a little bit of time,
but kind of putting the finishing touches on it just
really last week, it feels special and we're, you know,
three singles in and Rocky Mountain Low's doing its thing

(51:20):
in the top ten at radio. Empty Words is going
We're gonna have two songs on the radio at the
same time, which is crazy, Like never really dreamed that
that was a possibility. So so far, people are really
resonating with the new stuff, and it feels like we
might be onto something special.

Speaker 1 (51:37):
We're gonna play Empty Words, I don't know, give me
a little story, little anecdote about this one.

Speaker 10 (51:43):
This is a deep cut that I never thought anybody
would care about, that people really really connected with. I
thought it was gonna be a song that I loved
that nobody cared about, because that's usually how it goes.
My favorite songs are. I mean, I think a lot
of artists feel that way. But this song is is
it just doesn't sound like anything else. You know, it's

(52:04):
a it's got a lot of it's a lot of
soulful influence in in this and uh, we we made
this song, created like every aspect of it in the
third floor of Combustion, just me and my one of
my best friends, Austin Goodlow, who's producing this record. And
a lot of times you take the the what you
create in that moment and then you're like, let's go

(52:25):
to the studio and then let's add all these A
list players and let's see if we can make it better.
This particular song, we were like, sometimes it's just it
just is perfect when you when you originally create it.
And so we took what we originally created, we didn't
mess with it, and we just put it out and uh,
it's been it's been a really awesome thing to see.

(52:48):
I mean, we played we knew it was gonna be special.
We played this this show in Sacramento. We just picked
up a random show and uh, it was a it
was a little club and it was a sold out
crowd and they sang this song like every word as
loud as they saying wild is heard or the stuff
that's been on the radio, and so it just feels
like it feels like they've taken ownership of this song

(53:10):
and now it's gonna be It's gonna be on the radio.

Speaker 1 (53:12):
We're gonna play it. Also, guys, go watch Corey. If
you go to Corey Kent Official, all the dates are up.
You got a lot of shows all the way to
the end of the year. So great live performer. I
think people know you mostly as that. Like if they say, hey,
what's Corey good at, the first thing they say is
he's great live, and so yeah, you do not know
they say that they should tell you that then, because

(53:33):
mostly like people that like you and have like worked
with you.

Speaker 10 (53:36):
Yeah, I mean, I you know what, living in Texas,
it is really kind of tough to know what people
think of you. I don't hear like I'm not seeking
that out. I'm not trying to figure out what do
people think of me all the time. But I'm also
just like one layer removed from I actually do ask
my manager. I'm like, you know, are we doing are

(53:57):
we doing good? I just don't know, Like I feel
like we're doing good. But I also just I'm not
here like I'm not. I'm not like immersed in it
twenty four seven like I used to be, and.

Speaker 1 (54:07):
So uh behind your back, people say, man, that dude's
great live right on.

Speaker 10 (54:12):
Yeah, that's that's like, that's the highest compliment to me
because I you know, I think a lot of people
would write songs even if they didn't perform live. To me,
I'm like, if I could record and write but I
couldn't play live, I just would do something else, like
live music, even from that night with Willie Nelson, Like
that is why, that is why I got into this,

(54:34):
Like live music.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
Is what I love.

Speaker 10 (54:36):
So that's that's a reassuring that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (54:39):
We're gonna play empty words. I'm a big fan. Corey.
Good to see you, man, Good to see you too.

Speaker 10 (54:43):
Thanks for having me.

Speaker 1 (54:44):
Everybody good. Yeah man, you guys had enough.

Speaker 10 (54:48):
You guys were so quiet storyteller, we're talking too much,
Like I didn't hear anything.

Speaker 1 (54:54):
Trust me. If it wasn't good, we'd have been doing
bits in between. Oh okay, we'd have been like Amy,
how do you feel his hat? What does look for? Stuff?
And during bad guests, Yeah, when you're killing it, you're
on your box.

Speaker 3 (55:05):
I'd be like, what kind of cologne do you wear?
Because you song really good.

Speaker 1 (55:08):
That's when you know interviews are going bad. Yeah yeah,
never really he does he smells good. Yeah, he hugged you.

Speaker 2 (55:15):
Well, maybe that's why I still smell it.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (55:19):
It's like, uh, the I'm gonna mess this up, my
freaking rednecks about the show. It's like, yeah, but but
it's not like the one that everybody knows. No, it's
not that it's.

Speaker 2 (55:32):
It's a new scent to me.

Speaker 1 (55:33):
But I like it. Lalabo Horse Tall Yeah, yeah, yeah, nort.

Speaker 10 (55:38):
I'm always so impressed by people who can like smell
something and be like that's this. I'm like, I don't
possess that. That like dark magic that people can do.

Speaker 1 (55:48):
I gotta play your song. I gotta play Empty Words.
All right, got to song. It's Corey Kent' This is
his new song, Empty Words. Album comes out of September.
Yeah yeah, yeah right, ish's Corey ca Yeah, everybody got job.

Speaker 12 (56:01):
Thank you guys.

Speaker 1 (56:03):
All right, voicemails, let's go.

Speaker 13 (56:05):
I just had a question about Bobby as a new father.
He keeps the studios so cold that they all complain
about it. And I think he says that they sleep
at home with the temperature way down. So I just
wondered if the baby is having to accommodate for that,
or are they keeping the house warmer now that the

(56:27):
baby is there. Inquiring minds want to know, Well, we.

Speaker 1 (56:30):
Only keep the bedroom cold at night when we sleep,
but also the baby in the bedroom, it's where's a swaddle,
and that's warm. And also my wife does dictate the
temperature a little more. But the house isn't freezing throughout
the day because I don't like it cold. Just generally speaking,
I like it cold when I sleep and when I

(56:51):
perform and.

Speaker 2 (56:51):
When you're working.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
Yeah performing, Oh, this is what.

Speaker 2 (56:55):
We're doing here right now? Performing?

Speaker 1 (56:56):
Yeah, okay, I think quick got out quick? Okay, So well,
m I do feel more in the house, though, especially
in the bedroom. It does get a little hot for
me sometimes, and it's because my wife is really thinking
about the baby, because I don't think I want to
think I'll just keep it cold. When she was pregnant, though,
I bet I bet you guys kept it cold. Huh. Yeah,
we get it cold because it was hot. It's probably hot,

(57:18):
which I liked because before she was pregnant. It was
it's always so cold in here, and then it became normal,
and now it's getting a little back to normal. I
haven't thought about that though, all Right, next one I.

Speaker 12 (57:30):
Moved to a completely new state.

Speaker 6 (57:32):
I moved to Hawaii. I just want to say thank
you guys for posting podcasts. It's unfortunately the only way
I'm allowed to listen to it around here because we
don't have it on the radio. So I just want
to say thank you so much for posting it. Telling
out through a lot and love to.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
Choke and shout out Hawaii, shout out. There is iHeartRadio
that you can listen. If you wanted to hear us live,
just go to the IHIA Country channel. But I'd rather
you listen on podcast honestly. And yeah, we're not on
every broadcast tower. I don't know, maybe what you call that,

(58:10):
do radios? Well, we're not in every city, but we're
not in every state on every broadcast tower. It's a tower, right, yeah. Frequency, Well,
we're not ever frequency even on the cities that we're in. No,
that would be all the states. Yeah, but yeah, we're
just not in some places. But but how cool as
many people listen to podcasts as listen on the radio,

(58:31):
so we appreciate that.

Speaker 4 (58:33):
I don't want to live in Hawaii, man, the fact
that he just up and like, you know, I just moved.

Speaker 1 (58:38):
It's just it's it's cool. It's just so disconnected. Yeah. Also,
I still don't want to live in Seattle for that
same reason, So it's not even a Hawaii thing. Oh okay,
I don't want to live in California for that reason.
Time zones. I like to be in the middle in
the mix.

Speaker 4 (58:52):
The vibe in Hawaii is so cool, Like I love it,
but you're right, like you're still what a thousand miles
away from nowhere nowhere, like.

Speaker 1 (59:03):
You're literally in the middle of the ocean. Yeah, and
way different times though. Yeah, let's go next one.

Speaker 14 (59:11):
I just want to shout out Amy because I don't know,
she's just had like major growth. She just seems so good,
like confident, and I just love the way she speaks
and she handles things. She's really come a long way.
And I don't I know that sounds funny or weird
or like maybe negative, but I've just seen a lot
of growth in her and I just wanted to shout
her out to her on she's doing good and uh yeah,

(59:34):
have a good one.

Speaker 3 (59:36):
Thank you pause atle pause, pause, pause pause, No, I'm
you're well, I'm lucky me.

Speaker 2 (59:44):
You into my brain.

Speaker 3 (59:44):
When you receive a compliment, I'm just gonna say thank you,
pause pause, pus because I mean thank you and I'm
I I have other things I would say, like I
hate the way I talk, but that's what the pause, pause,
pause is for.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
Just receive the compliment.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
I would say, you're now the new American sweetheart? What
why'd you have the microphon rivet of the chair like that?
What's wrong with you?

Speaker 3 (01:00:11):
She just complimented me on how my demeanor your growths.
I don't know why I just did that because I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
Nervous and I'm trying to deflect because I'm like, what
does this feels awkward?

Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
A lot of people are saying it, Okay, fine, I
am saying it. I have said it before, she said it.
Everybody's saying it. You're America sweetheart, Thank you, You're welcomes
there you go, all right? Next one, Hey you.

Speaker 12 (01:00:40):
My name is Aaron from California. I was calling to
give Eddie some hope. I had my test aw shone
check back in twenty twenty four and it was three
ninety four, and God checked recently, haven't done anything different.
I'm two years older and it's five thirteen. So just
keep on keeping on.

Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Keep on keeping on, doing nothing different.

Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
The more people I've talked to about this on the streets,
so many people are dealing with this, Like so many
people are like, yeah, dude, I have low t too,
Like my numbers are in the two hundred, My numbers
in the one fifty.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
Like, oh yeah, you could be the guy that feels
better because it's not just about a number. You could
be the guy that feels better by being proactive about
the things you can fix and say I did this,
I feel better anyone else struggling with this, Here are
the things that you can do, but you don't want
to do that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:32):
Here's the thing though, and I'm not even saying that
this is the reason, but last week my kids weren't here,
like they were out of town for four days. I
was not tired, like and I don't know if it's
them or the tea or the responsibilities. Is just being
a parent of the NonStop things.

Speaker 3 (01:01:52):
So no part of you during this week they were
gone felt fatigued and lethargic.

Speaker 2 (01:01:57):
You think, Yeah, the low t would give you that,
no matter kids or.

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
Not, unless his tea is low, which allows him to
become more tired quicker when his kids are here because
they require a lot of me. Yeah, so someone with
a higher diesosterone may not get as exhausted from the
same amount of effort that you're putting in. Okay, So

(01:02:20):
it could be affecting it for sure. Okay, I see that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:23):
So think of how you feel now if you got
the pellet.

Speaker 2 (01:02:29):
You might feel now like you do even with your kids.

Speaker 4 (01:02:33):
I've changed my diet, Like my diet's changed. I'm working
on that changed, be honest. Yeah, being honest. Taken out
the taking out all the processed.

Speaker 3 (01:02:41):
Stuff, Like you haven't eaten anything processed? Were you just
eating a bar?

Speaker 5 (01:02:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
Has that process?

Speaker 4 (01:02:47):
Yes, like four inga So for you, how is a
bar process when it's like, got four ingredients?

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
What are the ingredients? What kind of bar is it?

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
It's a Laura bar?

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
Those aren't shout out?

Speaker 3 (01:02:58):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (01:02:58):
And then fruit and fruit, and then like all my
cold cuts because usually I love going home and making
a sandwich, not doing that cold cut. Yeah, I said
I'm not doing that. Okay, good, Like I got all
that out of my fridge. I'm not doing cold cuts.
I grilled my own chicken ate lettuce, like, okay, that's good.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
That's what I'm doing. So I'm gonna I'm working on it.

Speaker 4 (01:03:19):
But I thought it was crazy though that, like, you know,
I wasn't tired last week.

Speaker 1 (01:03:24):
Well again, I think those two things can factor into
each other, but it doesn't have to be the only factor. Yeah,
you could have more energy by putting out the same
amount of effort which is making you tired, if that
makes sense.

Speaker 4 (01:03:36):
But it does make sense. I'm going to keep on
keeping on though. I like that call.

Speaker 3 (01:03:40):
So Laura bars, to be specific, are minimally processed.

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
Oh no, they're just prost.

Speaker 3 (01:03:45):
I mean it is made from whole foods though, so
that's but like it's minprost.

Speaker 4 (01:03:50):
Like the gynecologist she said, ultra processed foods right.

Speaker 2 (01:03:55):
Right, and this mins.

Speaker 1 (01:03:56):
I don't know the difference.

Speaker 2 (01:03:57):
So you're good. Ultra would be probably like a chip.

Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
Nerds, limit your Nerds.

Speaker 3 (01:04:04):
Nerds, de Rito's twixes, all the good stuff that we love.

Speaker 1 (01:04:10):
Give me another one.

Speaker 15 (01:04:12):
I heard the mail bag where the person was bringing
their dog to work and they couldn't do anything about it.
So real, real questions, Bobby, what would you do if Lunchbuck's, Amy,
Mike or Eddie had a certificate in a dog that
came in the studio embarked all the time. HR says, Okay,

(01:04:32):
you can't do anything, but how would that work in.

Speaker 1 (01:04:35):
The studio if they medically needed the dog. There's nothing
that I could do or say to keep them from
bringing the dog. I'd have to understand the rule. But
I would also if there was something that was making
a noise and inhibiting us from doing the show as
we do it, I would have to put them in
a different room.

Speaker 3 (01:04:52):
Right, but the dog barking would still even if they're
in a different room. A dog barking would go through
the mics, which is disruptive.

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
Except I would just turn them up when I talk
to them, turn them back down, and then if it
did continue to bark.

Speaker 2 (01:05:03):
They're going to get fired.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
I would just find it. I would just find another reason. Yeah,
I'd paper trail them for a different reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
So find another way to get rid of it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:12):
I just I can already tell that one's like an
or I used to work from my house in North
Carolina when my husband at the time was stationed there,
and I would do the show and I would Bobby
in the lunchbox.

Speaker 2 (01:05:26):
Were in Austin and I would pipe in.

Speaker 3 (01:05:29):
But I lived by a train and my dog would
be in the room, and sometimes the train would go
by and they would have to turn me down or
my dog would bark and I was like, shut up,
you're gonna get me in trouble.

Speaker 1 (01:05:40):
Different time, though, those were the days. Those were the days.
Different time. We were just lucky. We felt like we
could connect. We were like one of the first shows
to ever do that, like put somebody in a different
place and try to do the show.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
It was crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:05:52):
Well, we didn't address it, but so sometimes we didn't
talk about how it wasn't there. I mean, some listeners
knew if they were really loyal, but we didn't address it.
And sometimes like or whatever a train sounds like, or like.

Speaker 1 (01:06:04):
We would just hope that listen your thought there's a
train behind them and nothing. Twice Yeah, yeah, So tonight
is the Folds of Honor softball game, I believe, and
I did see the lineups for both teams pop up
on my Instagram. There was one notable omission. Lunchbox, he's playing,

(01:06:25):
no left guys. I had no idea.

Speaker 4 (01:06:29):
Okay, okay, and I assumed it meant like entry, Yeah,
get rid of to leave it out.

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
Yeah, got it. Yeah, so Lunchbox, you are not playing.
I'm assuming it wasn't a last minute call.

Speaker 5 (01:06:41):
It was not a last minute call.

Speaker 7 (01:06:43):
You know, usually they'd like to be funny and call
me at the last minute, Hey, we need you to
fill in, come play. You know, we were just messing
with you, making you think you weren't gonna play. And
I guess they've officially moved on for me as a
player in the Folds of Honor Softball game, even though
I was there from the beginning the last five six years.
I helped get it off the ground, I built it

(01:07:03):
to what it was, and now they just kind of
tossed me out with the trash and said thanks, but
no thanks, and no email came in, no phone call,
and with the game being tonight, I do believe I
am officially no longer a Folds of Honor softball player.

Speaker 1 (01:07:20):
Do you feel though that it's because every single year
you come on the show and complain about them. I
don't know, and probably they're like, why do we keep
inviting this guy back? Every single time that he comes
he complains about something.

Speaker 5 (01:07:35):
That's a good question. I never thought of it that way.

Speaker 7 (01:07:37):
I thought it was like good for them for me
to talk about them, because you know what they always say, Well,
there's no such thing as bad publicity.

Speaker 3 (01:07:46):
They don't say that, they in general decide.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
But also I don't even know if that's said anymore,
because there is bad publicities.

Speaker 7 (01:07:53):
So yes, I am. Yeah, I don't know what the
reason is. Maybe they could email me and tell me why.
I'm not sure, but they definitely didn't select me to play.
They did not select me, they they Yeah, it's just weird,
you know, Like I went from when there was like,
you know, two hundred people in the stands are being
sold out, and now it's like, oh, now that you
got us here, thanks.

Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
But he acts like he's the chair in the board's
and he's not the one that got them there. They're
always famous, actual famous people to play, right, It's just
gotten bigger every year.

Speaker 5 (01:08:23):
Yeah, yeah, And I've been there every year and now
they don't need me.

Speaker 1 (01:08:28):
Are you doing anything else with them?

Speaker 10 (01:08:29):
Or like.

Speaker 5 (01:08:33):
No, I'm not announcing.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
No, no, they asked him to do that one year
and a fit right. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:08:38):
I was like, no, I want to play.

Speaker 7 (01:08:39):
They're like, no, no, how about you interview people in
between innings and the like get the crowd hyped.

Speaker 5 (01:08:43):
I'm like, no, I'm good, I'd rather play.

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
Is that when you didn't get a jersey?

Speaker 7 (01:08:48):
No, that was a different year. I didn't get a jersey.
I showed up and there there was no setup for me, like, oh,
we should probably get you a jersey. And then you
know what they did to me one year is they
give us gloves. So the next year I was like, oh, man,
I don't to bring a glove. They didn't give his
gloves that year, so I had no glove.

Speaker 1 (01:09:03):
Well that's on you. You can't expect the same gift
every year.

Speaker 5 (01:09:08):
That was awkward. So I'm like, hey, anybody got a
glove I can borrow.

Speaker 1 (01:09:12):
He's not playing in case you guys were gonna go
and you're gonna see him there and be like surprise.

Speaker 5 (01:09:20):
I won't be I won't be MVP this year.

Speaker 1 (01:09:23):
Have you ever been MVP? No?

Speaker 5 (01:09:25):
Okay, I think this year was my year.

Speaker 1 (01:09:26):
Yeah, Eddie found a tick on his body. I did.

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
How long do you think it had been there?

Speaker 3 (01:09:32):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (01:09:32):
Not long because I found it after I was playing
golf and I was in the shower and it was
on my washcloth, so it wasn't even stuck on my body.
But like so I would say three hours, four hours.

Speaker 2 (01:09:45):
Do ticks leave any part of their body in you?

Speaker 1 (01:09:48):
The head? Right? Sometimes a head? It had a head
and it was still alive.

Speaker 4 (01:09:52):
And I froze it because I've heard you guys talk
about I don't know somebody in the past.

Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
You and Morgan sent one in too, right, I think,
so sorry? I did I need your help? Like, what's
that it did it?

Speaker 2 (01:10:02):
If it's not in you, I think you're fine.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
But it was on me at some point. I brought
it from the golf course.

Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
Yeah, mail it in? So do I just go online
and be like mail and tick.

Speaker 1 (01:10:13):
Morgan probably knows where you can mail Ita.

Speaker 8 (01:10:16):
Yes, I have the address for you, Eddie, but also
just for your information, I learned when I was gonna
send it in. It has to be on you for like,
stuck inside of you, not just like crawling on right,
stuck inside of you for it to actually transmit a disease.
For over twenty four hours, so if you pulled it
off within the timeframe, then you're probably.

Speaker 2 (01:10:35):
I mean, you're fine because it costs money, you're gonna
have to pay.

Speaker 9 (01:10:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:10:37):
How else it was like, I feel like I paid
it for one hundred dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:10:41):
Oh I'm good, DN, Yeah, all you're safe. Yeah, yeah,
worried about it. Yeah, you're only worried about it to
how much do you think twenty five dollars? You got it? Okay,
and they pay for postage. Hey, did your neighbor to
put in a pool?

Speaker 10 (01:10:52):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:10:53):
Yes, above ground?

Speaker 4 (01:10:55):
Uh yeah, it's an above ground pool, and like it's
pretty awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:10:59):
And she said, like quote she said.

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
Anytime you guys want to use it, you're more than
welcome to It's summertime. So I'm thinking, like how serious
was she like, because my boys will go every.

Speaker 1 (01:11:11):
Day, I would think every day is not what she meant.
But she said, any time you guys wanted to use that, okay,
let me do parentheses. Anytime you want to use it parentheses, Hey,
give me a call and if we're around, and we'd
love for you to use it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:26):
But she didn't say that they don't need to be around.
It's actually probably better if they're not around.

Speaker 1 (01:11:30):
I'm gonna say, you don't want anyone swimming in your
pool when you're not there, because if that's a lawsuit,
that's you're begging for a lawsuit. If somebody drowns, dies, gets.

Speaker 2 (01:11:36):
Hurt, have them sign something.

Speaker 1 (01:11:39):
Okay, I'm just saying, but it's not me.

Speaker 4 (01:11:40):
I don't have the pool. She's the one that has
the pool. And she never said any of that stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:11:44):
I know, but you could say, just to be protective,
I'll sign this to be proactive, You're like, just to
get ahead of it, just.

Speaker 2 (01:11:52):
So you know. I'm not going to sue you.

Speaker 1 (01:11:54):
I wouldn't let them go by themselves.

Speaker 4 (01:11:56):
I would go, well, yeah, play out and stuff and
just hang out to take a couple of beers.

Speaker 3 (01:12:00):
I mean, honestly, now that it's getting hot and it
is summer, and I've been where we had a pool,
and then two years ago we moved and so now
this is our coming up on our Tuesdays, third summer
without it, and it is a game changer. When you
have a pool with kids is a game changer. Like
I miss it. I'm already like, should I just put
a pool in here? But then winter comes and you're like, oh,
a pool is such a headache, and like the ice storm,

(01:12:22):
all the money you had to spend because you're.

Speaker 2 (01:12:23):
A pol bobby, like, it's just it's such a headache.

Speaker 3 (01:12:26):
But pools are clutch your kids in the summer, no
what I used to And Stevenson already has been like
I miss.

Speaker 2 (01:12:32):
Our pool and like, sorry, buddy, we moved.

Speaker 3 (01:12:36):
What you know, And that was almost That was twenty
twenty four when we moved, so you've had time to
get over it. And one of our neighbors has one
that he just became friends with, so it's great.

Speaker 1 (01:12:46):
I would think she means you can use it anytime.
If you call and say, hey, do you care for
you use your pol, they're going to say yes. I
don't think you can just go over and get in
their pool, okay. But if I called every day, well
that's is there? Is there overkill?

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
I guess yes, calling every day is overkill.

Speaker 1 (01:12:59):
Okay, because there's something to do every day. They don't
go to school. I would say you can probably reach
out like twice a week and ask. But asking is
weird or you see that the kids in over there
and you're like, hey, it's allid Toby's in. No, she's single.

Speaker 2 (01:13:14):
She's single, and you're gonna go over durable.

Speaker 1 (01:13:16):
She's single and she put it in above ground pool. Yeah.
Usually do that for kids or property and above ground
doesn't really raze.

Speaker 4 (01:13:25):
I'm older, older kids that are out of the house.
Oh interesting and maybe oh maybe they're in for that.

Speaker 1 (01:13:30):
Maybe she's trying to get with you like this will
get out. Yeah, that's my wife, mean exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:13:38):
I mean water is clutched in the summer.

Speaker 1 (01:13:42):
It really is.

Speaker 4 (01:13:43):
But when someone like I've been in the situation before,
like someone was like, hey, man, I have i'm a
mountain house, you know, like a cabin in the mountains,
anytime you want.

Speaker 1 (01:13:50):
To use it. That's that doesn't really mean anytime, dude.
I'm like, wow, I guess.

Speaker 3 (01:13:53):
You're not going to put a mountain house. You're not
going to go every day or to where it's annoying.

Speaker 1 (01:13:57):
But do they really mean it when they say that.
I think they mean if you reach out to them
and say, hey, is it cool if we use your
mountain house, We're going to go up there, like like
what's the availability of it? I think then you negotiated
negotiates a weird word. But I say, yeah, you it's
a dance. But no, anytime.

Speaker 4 (01:14:15):
No, because I've just heard so many people are like, hey,
I have this anytime, anytime you want to.

Speaker 1 (01:14:21):
I think it's anytime you want to use it. Hit
us up and ask. I think that's what that means.
Anytime you want to use it, let us know. So
you let me know anytime you want to use it,
and then we'll figure out the time that you actually
can use it when it is best for us and you,
when you feel like that's the appropriate. Yeah. I think
if you just show up and you're in your shorts
back there swimming and you don't give them my heads up,

(01:14:42):
that's just me. That's too much. Yeah. All right, that's it.
Thank you guys for listening. We will see you guys tomorrow.
Really appreciate everybody. And again thanks to Corey Kan't who
you just heard from. Super cool. Love that guy. Check
out his new music. And that's it. We'll see tomorrow
