Speaker 2 (01:38):
Who is Scooba? Steve closest to on the show? That's
from Chris and Missouri.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Chris and Missouri the closest in the show.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
I think I have an answer.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
I would say I would mostly because when I first
came on the show, it was almost like my little
pet project for lack of better terms, and then through
that I just really developed a great relationship. But then
would probably lunchbox that.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Was my thing to Also, you guys have similar lifestyles.
You're a both dads of three kids. You got a
lot going on.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Yeah. Yeah, Then I would say another person would be
Ray because Race, it's right next to me, so him
and are always talking crap to each other and whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
So yeah, there's a bunch of dudes being dude pretty much.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Yeah, But I like everyone, and I've read relationship with
everybody on the show. But I would say probably that
probably my top two would be Lunch and Ray. Yeah, Morgan,
probably three.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
You know how I number two?
Speaker 3 (02:25):
I got the preaky number through there.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
You know how I know that too, is because it
was Steve in lunch. Every time they're together, man, I
want to die. We like punking, Like, yeah, you two
together is like a.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Dynamic duo is too nice.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Honestly, the way that you guys come after me when
you're together.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
It's a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
For you guys.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Maybe it's so much fun.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Take them two together, you think one of them is
a little crazy, and then have both of them coming
at you with the same inside joke that they think
is hilarious.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Is a wild ride.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
And watching you because you get so uncomfortable over the
things that don't bother us. It makes it even better.
And then when we find out it makes you uncomfortable,
then we just don't stop.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
I've come a long way, though I'm not going you
have come.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
A long way. In the beginning, it was almost like
we were like, you were gonna die, You're gonna curl up
in a corner and die of anxiety.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
I hate situation and I love uncomfortable situations.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
And just like I've got I'm like, there's nothing I
can do about it. And I realized if I react
to you, guys do more. So.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yeah, yeah, it goes inward than outward a lot more.
Now that's where the growth.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I'm really glad I can always be the butt of
your guys.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
That's how I know.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
It's funny.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Why is he called Scuba Steve? That's from A C
A C A C.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Green Green, Don't Call here Anymore. It's a old school
like hip hop rap song, A Green Green Girl Don't
call It was like, it's the B word, don't go
here anymore? Not I gotta fare what's on? That is
before I answered Acy's question, Because it's such an iconic
(04:06):
rap song that gets stuck in your head.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
You look, I would love to look it up for you.
But I don't know Green any idea of what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
You look like Ac Green. It's from Doctor The Chronic,
the Egos.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
That's a deep cut from somewhere.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
You ever heard the Chronic album No Stupid? You know
it's annoying about YouTube. There was a day when you
didn't have.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
About you this one where it's like, oh yeah, I
don't know that that one.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Oh my gosh, such.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
A gry for much longer I working, I know, No, No.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
I just turned it off. I know anyone else. I'm
sure there's people out there, like, all of a sudden
to the Chronic Chronic two thousand, there's that song.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, no, I listen, I heard my country music and
that was really about it. So that's that's why it's
hard for me to pull back any other knowledge. Okay,
anything I learned in my music knowledge came from when
I was an adult solo.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
So you're teaching me about it now. I did not like.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Well, I recommend you should one hundred percent get on
your phone one day on a road trip or something.
I'm sure your fiance has been all about it or
heard it or is aware of it. The Chronic the
original little hardcore, he may may may not be suitable
for you. But the Chronic two thousand, the newer one,
but it's not really knew anymore. Had eminem Snoop Dogg,
Dre and all them on there.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Oh, he for sure loved it.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Listen. Oh my gosh, that guy loves loves hip hop rap.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Oh then he's heard. Then he's for sure. If you
go to him tonight and you're like, hey, babe, I
never heard listen to the Chronic, He's like what. And
I haven't listened to the Chronic two thousand, He's like what.
So you should definitely spend because one of those albums,
when you press play, all the interludes, like the little
skits in between, all blend and fade together so beautifully,
and it's such a great textually. The album is such
(05:46):
a great phenomenal pop cultural moment.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Okay, so the Chronic, the Chronic a little hardcore, or
the Chronic two thousands.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
The Chronic two thousand, I think would be a little
bit more of your vibe.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Chronic two thousand, Okay, I bet he has, but I'm
sure he has. And now that I've initiated that, I
have a feeling I'm going to be educated on another drive.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
Yes, yeah, well on your next drive you should listen.
And if if you have only an option between one
of the two, I think for your vibe, the newer one,
the Chronic two thousand would be for you.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Listen. I love Eminem, so he's in.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
The newer one. The original one is like dirty hardcore
gangster rap where it's like just Dre and Snoop and
a few others that are popping in.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
And I like a lot of those.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I listen, Ulie their music little hardcore for you, Okay,
next best bitch?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Okay. Cool. So the answer to a C's question, you
look like a C. Green and then once that song
comes on, you're like, oh my gosh, Ac and Ac
Green is an NBA player, which we learned that you
don't know anything about NBA players or basketball. The Los
Angeles Lakers got it, yes, which also ties into the
Chronic and Dre because they're from La. Okay, okay, all right,
(06:55):
so they answer the question for Ac Scuba Seed, very
simple answer. When I started in radio, I was an
intern and the movie Big Daddy was a popular film
at that time, Adam Sandler movie. And there's a scuba
Steve character in there. My name is Stephen. My first
day school with Steve, Steve, damn you on my first day.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
He texted me back he did doctor Dre explanation point Actually, yeah,
so I think that's yes, yes, yea, I think it's now.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
I've started, like I said, tell.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Him cronic two thousand just for you, okay, and if
you partake, partake and then listen take it to another.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
One follow Yes, But then he responds, still d r.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
E yeah, still Dre.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Yeah, Okay.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Nowadays everybody want to talk about they got something to say,
but nothing comes out. The moodless bunch of that we've
got about Dre. It's a lot of cursing from really
like kind of like, okay, you never heard that song.
Nowadays everybody want to talk it's eminem rapping. It's like
his first like introduction into the world.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Maybe maybe if I played again, I'll remember it.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
I'll report back.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
But now I know that he's for sure is going
to drop college on me. All right, We're gonna take
a break, come back.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I have more questions. Continue scoop a Steve story.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
And then so intern day one I walk in. I
was in Orlando, a station called XCEL one O six seven.
It was Johnny, Johnny and Jay was The show was
like an iconic Orlando radio show. And I walked in
first day and they're like yeah, I walk in, They're
like all in the office. They turn around, look at me.
They're like, scoop Steve, damn you. And I was like, oh,
it's a cool movie, like no, no, no, that's your name.
And I was like what and they go, we give
all our interns a nickname, and that's your nickname. I
(08:24):
was like all right, cool, and then I was like whatever.
And then it was one of those nicknames where I realized, oh,
I can't escape this nickname. And the host, Johnny loved it.
Every time I would see him, he be like scoom o,
scoop Steve, and he just loves saying it. And for
me it was cool because then I have this guy
that I looked up to growing up who now knows
my name and gave me a name and like he
can't get it. And I see him now. The first
(08:45):
thing he says, he's like school oh, and I'm like, oh,
this is so cool. He still knows me.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
That's cool, And.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
So for me it was pretty legit to like get
nicknamed by somebody looked up to. Johnny Magic was his name.
And and then I carried it from every market when
I was in San Francisco, though they hated it on
it and they were like, you got to change it,
and so I went by just Steven for a while
producer Steve, which is such a boring ass.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Name compared to Steve.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Yeah, so dumb. And then I went to LA and
then I was working with Ryan Seacrest and he was
like and he heard of my name and he was like, oh,
I love that name. You got to keep it. And
I was like, really, I was like I was thinking
about changing it. He was like, no, he goes branding
my brother, he goes, keep Scoob Steve. He goes, that
is amazing because I love it. And then he then
he knew me and remember me because my name was,
I guess easy to remember.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
And so I was all right, well different, it's unique.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Seacrest stamped it, and then a guy I looked up
to stamped it. I got to keep it, so.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Yeah, so now you are forever scoop of Steve, and
now you do the Scoob of Steve show.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Exactly. Yeah, yeah, so weird, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
What is the one thing about the show that people
probably think happens naturally, but it takes way more work
than anyone realizes.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
That's from Dusty, I.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Would say, usually when it comes to booking a guest,
depending on the guest, if it's like, if it's like
a layup where it's like, hey, we're going for number
one or some bull crep like that, it's super gooses,
all right, here's the day, here's the time, send me,
send me the stuff, and we'll question and then we'll
get it done. But if it's like if it's like
a desirable guest or somebody that is not from Nashville
(10:16):
or traveling in, there's a lot of a lot of
back and forth and a lot of you know, logistics
and getting it put together and a lot of that
kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
One of the big gets as we call them, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
The big gits.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're more uncommon, they don't happen a lot. Yeah,
something like that, or like a big actor, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Anything wrong, that takes a lot of work, easither work
of getting them to come on, or then even then
that process of getting them come on, then it's like, okay,
when fishing got them, Now I got to reel them
in and reel them in. They have a lot of
questions because just a lot of unfamiliar territory where it's
like a country artists already they've been here or their
team has already been here. So the already knowing, they
know what the process is like and what needs to
be done, so it's a little bit more streamlined.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Yeah, that's a good answer.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
What is your dream ride? You'd love to go on
Max in Boston anywhere in the world? Dream and the
bucket list ride?
Speaker 3 (11:01):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Dream ride? Like like a theme park ride?
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Yeah? Dream ride?
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Let me think that dream ride. I've done a lot
of the ones.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I like, Is there like international ones that you've dreamt
of going on and you hope to be there one day?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Yeah, well, yeah, there is actually one. It was an
entire theme park going to be cool to go to
all the Disney theme parks across the world. But have
you ever seen in Dubai the Warner Brothers theme park.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
I've heard about it, yes, seen it on socials, but
I don't know what's ai or real anymore.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
So, No, it's cool because it's Dubai, and the weather
is terrible, it's always super high, so it's all indoors.
There's a completely fully indoor theme park and it's a
Warner Brothers theme park, and it just seems.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Which Warner brother is very creative, so cool.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
We follow each other on Instagram and and I'm like,
I just can't wait for the day when I get
to go to Dubai and go to that theme park.
It seems they have a Batman ride, Like it's all
these cool fun.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
That would be so fun.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
It's just so cool. It looks so cool.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I didn't know that they had a Batman ride. No,
I want to go to a Batman right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
There's that one in the And I want to go
to the Nickelodin Universe at the MA All America, which
is more obtainable because it's just a straight shot north.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
You can totally just do that on a weekend.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
I know, but it's just like trying to find a
weekend to do that.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
I know.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, but that's definitely a weekend tribute Dubai. You need
like a whole week I know for the travel alone.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
That's a lot. Yeah, and it's expensive and the whole thing.
But then the Universal one would be cool because then
you get the Mall of America. I'll always want to
go there and see that. Yeah, so yeah, I'd love
to be able to do the Mall of America first
more obtainable, and then Warner Brothers in Dubai.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
That's fun. Those are good ones.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Have you ever seen the It's not within the park
in Japan, but there's straight up Mario Kart on the
streets in.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Japan, like not a theme park thing, like a real thing.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Yeah, like you're in actual go carts. Okay, And I
would have to find the video again, but this is
my dream to do and I would love to go
on this one sometime in my whole life.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
And if I could make that one happen, that would
be the whole dream.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
That's pretty cool. They have like bananas in the in
the back end, like they drop off, but.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Some of them have balloons, like, ok, yeah, are you
saying that one?
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Yay?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
We do have to get out of here, but so
I'm gonna leave us on one thing. Nick in Colorado
wants to know if you will ever shave the beard.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I thought about it many different times. Most recently there
was an incense that happened and I was like, get
this thing off me.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
I know the moment.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Well, I used to talk about everything. That's one that
I won't talk about because it's it was interesting and weird. Yeah,
but I almost went up to the room and shaved.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
It to get rid of it. Don't want it on
my body.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
I don't know, but we've been t thught about it
many different times of like getting rid of it just
because you know, I kind of my wife sons like
I missed your face, or my kids have my kids
have never seen my face. And then it also I'm like, oh,
my kids gonna be traumatized because my dad always had
a mustache, and I remember the times he would shave it.
We would cry. We were so sad because he looked
so different and he wasn't the dad that we knew,
and so we were traumatized by him shaving his mustache.
(13:51):
But then when he laught, we were traumatized even more.
But so all trauma.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
So maybe one day, maybe one.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Day, yeah, maybe my kids are older and if I
would do it, it would have to be that I
would let the kids either they would shave it or
they'd have to be there. When I'm shaving it, because
they need to be able to be a part of
that process because they have never seen my face before.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah, none of them ever. That's fair. That's fair. I
was traumatized when my dad shaved his mustache. I get it.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Yeah, so yes, definitely make them part of the process.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Is that when you were a kid or is he
already have hair?
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
No, he only had an afro when he was before us.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Oh so you've only known your dad? Wasn't like your
dad shaved his head, Like whoa dad?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
No? Yeah, but the mustache man for for a couple
of days and I was like, nikam more right, dad,
it's a weird vibe.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
It's weird.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
It's the same guy. But when they look at you,
you're like, who are you?
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Why are you yet? It a lot of weird dud. Okay,
we had to get out of here, Scuba. Thanks for
being on, Thanks.
