Not for another Sunday sampler.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Sore Losers coming up and they'll talk about the Walker
Hayes Charity golf tournament. Caroline Hobby sat down with Christian
singer and former American Idol alum Danny Goki and on
the Bobby Cast, Litt was on fasing that song.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Can't We Forget About Things?
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I said when I was drunk it did mean to
call you that.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
So here they are talking about Woodstock ninety nine. Let's
kick off the sampler with Litt. It's been twenty five
years since My ow Worst Enemy. I did not know that.
It feels like it feels like fifty years but also
like three years at the same time, totally like that songs.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Was it in a was it in a movie first?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Or was it just a straight radio single that they
just put out as itself?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Did it then exist in every movie after that?
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Yeah? It was a radio off quickly?
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Y Yeah, okay, because for a while it was in
everything and then it like five years ago it started
popping up in everything again, which is really cool, cool
life of a song to have. So was that the
first single from lit My Own Worst Enemy?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
First?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
First?
Speaker 4 (01:15):
That was the first song that went to radio with us.
Speaker 5 (01:17):
So the album that was called you know Lit whatever
that was before A Place in the Sun got it.
So A Place in the Sun was our first major
label record.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Yea enemy was on that.
Speaker 6 (01:28):
We might have got a little bit of like college
radio love on the album before A Place in the Sun,
but yeah, I was it was minor.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
It was like it was building block.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
So Lit the record still stayed the name Lit. It
was self titled. Right at that point we.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Changed it to Tripping the Light Fantastic.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yep, Okay, that's a lot different than Lit. And yeah,
so is that the one though that was heard that
got you guys the big looks that then created A
Place in the Sun? Or was it all the music
from A Place in the Sun that somebody heard and
that really was it?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Yeah? It was the new batch of songs?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Who hear's those? How does that work?
Speaker 5 (02:02):
We had a manager and we we were shopping and
just getting turned down by everybody, even my owners. Sentiment
got turned down by everybody, including our CAA who ended
up signing us.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
They turned it down the first.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Time, What with what reason? Or did they not even
give one? All you got back was in it?
Speaker 5 (02:19):
I mean back then they would just say we don't
hear a hit, we don't hear a single or whatever.
And two of the four songs on that demo that
everyone passed on ended up being huge hits.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
So who heard it as it later? Was it somebody
different that worked.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
With the radio guy at RCAA Records heard it?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
And at the time what was on the radio? Was it?
Was it other rock stuff or what? Because my years
get blittery at this point, was that sound a lot
different or was that sound just a growth of what
was already starting to be popular because it was after
the nineties grunge stuff.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
Yep, it was a lot different at the time. It
was really mixed up and you know, like Blink was
getting big around the same time. We would tour together
like a warped tour and all that. We were both
kind of bubbling over. We were sort of the first,
I guess alternative rock band to start kicking doors open
at like pop radio.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Was it boy band time?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
But then that was pretty huge then too.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Yeah, yeah, But on alternative radio and rock radio, it
was a lot of you know, it.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Was creed and corn or chili peppers, biscuit biscuit corn.
Those guys wimp Biscuit was coming up.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Moby Oh yeah, Moby dang mobe in a long time.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
I mean that's when Minem was like an alternative Yeah, yeah,
you know why because it was white.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yeah, crazy, I mean so.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
And I worked in pop radio forever, worked in alternative radio.
So did you guys get we'll say service to alternative
radio first? Were they like, you're a rock band, we're
taking the rock band to the rock stations, or were
they going, this is so universal, like we believe we're
going to pop.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Where did that go?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Well, pop wasn't really messing with a lot of rock,
so it wasn't so it killed it at rock first,
alternative before.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
Yeah, it kind of went to pop because it was
so big and it didn't have anywhere else to go.
But at first it was it was alternative rock and
like whatever they called the other one active rock.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Sure, it was all rock at first, and so you
would be on those festivals. Did you guys ever play
in it?
Speaker 7 (04:16):
You're right?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
You good?
Speaker 7 (04:17):
You know?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Oh no, you're good, You're good. Even if you are,
we'll enjoy the noise together. Did you guys do any
of those the Woodstocks.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
We did ninety nine? You know, the one everyone's talking about.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Now, the one that all the crap went wrong? Well,
what was it as bad as the documentary shows.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
With what you guys saw, No we saw because there.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Was no water.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I mean from what I saw, it was like everybody
was like dying of thirst and everything was burning down.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
That wasn't your experience.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
We got in and out first day, so we just
I mean it was it was awesome for us.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
We were on tour with Offspring at the time, and
so both bands played day one and then we kind
of when all hell broke loose at Woodstock, we were
already like two shows later, you know, playing amphitheaters.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
And in this subject that would have been good for
the documentary. You got the stories kind of fun and boring.
You're like, yeah, we had a great time.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
It was awesome.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
I mean, there was a lot of shenanigans going on,
but it was like.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah, from what the theme of that that documentary was,
because I remember it part and again, I was a
big alternative kid. I was like country of marketsas so
country music talked about where I was from, but alternative
music talked about what I felt. And I was the
first generation of napster so when Napster hit, like I
would just hit the letter L, download every song on
that started the letter L in every format and just
(05:32):
have the ability. At the time, I thought was my
rightful I deserved every song for free. I mean idiot,
because we all thought that, or least I thought that.
But you know, it was a a download streaming kid.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
It was also a CD kid.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
I was also a tape kid, so I was able
to have really all of that type of culture. I
guess the only thing I missed was vinyl. But was
a big alternative kid. And so when they showed that
festival and they would the front like all the bands
playing it, it seemed like a pretty aggressive, harder rock
festival than maybe what the original was. Did you guys
(06:08):
feel that at all? Or was that just the music
at the time. Was it just like this is ninety
nine or ninety six, this is just what's popular right
now more than it is we're trying to create some
rock fest version two.
Speaker 7 (06:19):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
I feel like a lot of the heavier stuff came
out at night, but there were some you know, Elvis
Costell actually played, I didn't get to see him.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Like Jewel played too.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
I think there were Noel and like Cheryl Crow and
it was like g Love and Special Saw. I mean
it was but the big ones where you know, your
Corn and Limp Biscuit and Chili Peppers and and in
Offspring and you know, we were playing a lot of
big radio festivals in those days, and they were all
kind of like they all had a lot of those
same bands, which really is kind of hasn't been like
(06:54):
that since there was massive, massive artists on these radio
festivals back then and still probably now more so in pop,
but I mean just an alternative.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Back then, it was wild.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
The bands that we got to play with we were
huge fans of, and it was it was pretty cool.
Speaker 8 (07:19):
Yeah, you're listening to in the Vets Office with doctor
Josie Horschak.
Speaker 9 (07:26):
Today we're going to have the beautiful and incredibly talented
Mackenzie Porter in the Vets office. Not only is she
our friend, but you also probably know her from her
lead role on the Netflix series The Travelers or her
booming music career. Her and Dustin Lynch spent many weeks
in the number one spot on country music radio for
their song think About You. I still love that song too.
(07:48):
I'm super excited to have her on today. Coming up next,
Mackenzie Porter with doctor Josie. Welcome to in the Vets Office,
Mackenzie Porter. I'm know holligannurferd you as Mac this entire episode.
And for the listeners out there that can't see us,
we are twinning today. We came pretty much in the
(08:10):
exact same outfit and this was not planned.
Speaker 10 (08:12):
I know.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
This means we're good friends and we're on the same
waveleg exactly.
Speaker 9 (08:16):
So we got your intro out of the way, and
now we need to get to the real star of
the show. Here we have on this podcast. We call
it b Yo D Bring your Own Dog. So tell
us a little bit about miss Willa, this little beast,
we call her the Beast. She her name's Willa. Her
name's Willa Bean. Okay Porter Ethridge. She has the full
name Willa Bean Porter Ethrick.
Speaker 8 (08:37):
Yes, a star, a star, and she is almost five
year old multi poo poo, which is like very uncle like.
Speaker 11 (08:45):
I remember my husband when I was like, we're getting
a multipoopoo.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
He's like any other dog, any other like there's no
there's nothing cool about that dog.
Speaker 11 (08:51):
And now he's obsessed with her.
Speaker 9 (08:53):
So she's like palling at me a multi poopoo. So
we've got a Maltese and a poodle or a stumble poodle.
Speaker 12 (08:59):
I see.
Speaker 8 (09:00):
I think she was like bread a multipoo uh huh,
and then a multeese and then with another.
Speaker 11 (09:06):
Poodle, maybe with another heard the poo poo.
Speaker 9 (09:08):
Yes, okay, I love that. And how old is Willebane?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
So she's almost five August she'll be five almost five?
Speaker 13 (09:15):
Love that?
Speaker 9 (09:16):
And you have recently announced that you are expecting a
baby girl? Do you think that she knows?
Speaker 8 (09:23):
So it's funny, like I feel like the very beginning,
I was like she has to know because she kept
kind of cuddling my tummy and like wanting to be
near me.
Speaker 11 (09:32):
And now I don't know, Like.
Speaker 8 (09:34):
It's you know, it's hard hard to say, like she
definitely smells my tummy a lot, okay, because I feel
like you, I mean, dogs obviously can sense that kind
of thing. I think she's I wouldn't say she's the
sharpest tool in the shed, but she is very cuddly,
improtective of me. Like even the other day Jake was
like tickling me or I can't remember, he wasn't tickling
me like he went to grab me for a hug
or something, and she would start barking at him. So
(09:55):
she's more protective. And I think that's since the pregnancy.
Speaker 9 (09:58):
I hear a lot of women and say that that
they become more protective when they're pregnant, So you're not
the first time, which is.
Speaker 11 (10:04):
Kind of the most like beautiful thing.
Speaker 8 (10:05):
I love that so much, Like that a dog can
just sense like a new family member.
Speaker 11 (10:11):
Yeah, I don't know that, they're just they're so aware.
Speaker 9 (10:14):
How do you think she'll do when you bring the
baby home?
Speaker 8 (10:16):
So we we always talk about this, like I think
she loves kids. We have neighbors that have kids, so
I feel really confident about that. We've also just been
like we have to make sure we get her attention. Still, yes,
but I think i'd be fine, Like we're gonna do
the whole like let the baby lay in the blanket
and then let her smell the blanket and then introduce
her to the baby.
Speaker 11 (10:36):
But I feel like she'll be totally fine.
Speaker 9 (10:37):
Yeah, I think so. I mean, I know her, so
I think so. But I do think that's really important
for listeners out there. If you know you're gonna want
a family. Exposing your dog and getting them desensitized and
socialized with kids is so important because yeah, I mean,
it's going to be a huge part of your life.
And I will be interested to hear your feedback on
the age old question of do you love your human
(10:59):
children more than your for children, because I'm convinced I won't.
Speaker 11 (11:02):
I mean too that makes me like crying.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
Like I've heard people be like, oh, you won't even
care about your dog anymore?
Speaker 11 (11:07):
Yeah, And I'm like that breaks my heart right now.
Speaker 9 (11:10):
It's not possible.
Speaker 8 (11:11):
It's not I mean, I think you know, we have
enough love to go around, and I'm sure like there
will be times where it's annoying if she's barking, the
baby wakes up or whatever, or like taking her out
and we're just kind of like swamped be a challenge.
Speaker 11 (11:25):
But I just don't think I could love her, no,
any of us.
Speaker 9 (11:29):
No, I don't think so either. So you know, you're
a musician, you're on tour a lot. Has she gone
on tour with you? And how does she do?
Speaker 8 (11:37):
She does so well. I'm like so impressed with her.
I'm just a proud mom. She does so well, so
we her big tour was We did like a run
with Dan and Shay and you know, I feel like those.
Speaker 11 (11:50):
Guys are like dog people too, totally.
Speaker 8 (11:52):
So it was amphitheaters and she loved it, and like
everybody loved her backstage and of course, like when the
show's going her sound check, that's like loud and scary
for her, but we would just throw her back on
the bus and she was fine.
Speaker 11 (12:04):
She was totally fine, and she's flown. She's a really
good traveler.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
She loves car rides, so I think because we did
that like very early on in her life that she's pretty.
Speaker 11 (12:13):
Used to them.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
She's such a like an entertainer's dog.
Speaker 8 (12:16):
She is, Yeah, she is, and she loves music and
she loves like I mean, she is in Jake studio
with him recording every single day and that's just her life.
Speaker 11 (12:24):
She's a studio pup.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
So Max's husband, Jake is also a very talented musician.
Have either you or Jake written a song about her?
Speaker 11 (12:31):
Or we definitely have written like joke songs, Yeah, like
nothing's making my.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
Record like at home that you'll sing to her.
Speaker 11 (12:39):
Yes, she's a theme song.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
Will you maybe give us one little hint of what
that sounds.
Speaker 11 (12:44):
Like do you remember the show Pepraham?
Speaker 12 (12:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (12:48):
Do you remember it?
Speaker 9 (12:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (12:49):
So her theme song is will Lev will Leby. She's
still cool for seventh grade, Willa Bean. It's like a million.
Speaker 14 (12:58):
Amazing.
Speaker 11 (12:59):
She's like ready for her, She's like, who we.
Speaker 12 (13:20):
Le cass up little food for yourself life ain't Oh

(13:43):
with Full Thing with Amy Brown.
Speaker 15 (13:46):
Hey, it's Amy Brown from Four Things with Amy Brown.
Speaker 9 (13:48):
And here's what.
Speaker 15 (13:49):
We talked about this week on my podcast.
Speaker 10 (13:52):
One piece of advice that you gave me recently was
mom got engaged her senior year and that's something that
some of my friends have done, and that's great. But
your advice to me was, don't rush to the next
season while a really good season is already happening. Don't
rush to the season of being engaged. Be present, be
where my feet are, and then that will come if
(14:13):
its meant to be in God's timing. And I really
liked that advice and it made me feel like it
is okay to take things slow and there's no need
to rush to get engaged.
Speaker 11 (14:22):
Or to get married.
Speaker 16 (14:23):
Yeah, well, everybody's on their own timeline. But I was
just giving you my perspective, even though that's how we
did do things. And I did get engaged my senior year,
and then we got married right after I graduated. I
really realized that I felt like planning for the wedding
and planning for the marriage overlapped with me enjoying the
very end of my senior year of college. And it's
(14:45):
like these two seasons really overlapped. And so I was
just trying to share my perspective and I liked it.
No matter what's happening with your friends, you were on
your own timeline, and it's okay to draw things out
a little longer than maybe other people are.
Speaker 9 (15:00):
So Ben, you're Ben.
Speaker 15 (15:02):
So I was mind you had been which happened to
be her beIN's bff. But what's the flower story since
we were talking about flowers earlier. Oh into my head
about what he did when y'all were in junior high.
Speaker 16 (15:13):
Yeah, well, my Ben and I, actually you're beIN and
I too. We all met in middle school youth group
at church. So my Bin, we actually became boyfriend girlfriend
in middle school and kind of dated a little bit
through high school.
Speaker 17 (15:26):
Then we broke up and he dated somebody else for
a long time.
Speaker 16 (15:28):
We don't need talk, We don't really need to talk
about all the details of that. But nonetheless, he had
come over to my house. And I was in gymnastics
and a dancer in high school. So it was like
my freshman year of high school, and I had done
some performances and sometimes you would get flowers.
Speaker 17 (15:42):
People would bring you roses. Oh, good job on your performance.
Speaker 16 (15:44):
Well then I would save those roses like that dozen roses,
dry them, hang them upside down, dry them, and then
they'd be sitting around my room really beautiful.
Speaker 17 (15:54):
And so Ben comes over.
Speaker 16 (15:55):
He sees, oh, she likes dead flowers, okay, And so
his stepmom and dad had a recent anniversary. His dad
had given some flowers. The flowers were about to be
thrown out because they were wilty and gross and ugly,
and Ben's like, oh no, no, no, don't throw them out.
Christie loves dead flowers. So then he brought me his
(16:18):
parents old used dying that anniversary flowers because he thought
I would love them. And so the differences they weren't
the flowers given to me, they were.
Speaker 11 (16:29):
Given to somebody else.
Speaker 16 (16:31):
So I think that's the sentiment of keeping dried flowers
is typically that's because they were given to you alive and.
Speaker 17 (16:37):
Beautiful, and then you saved them.
Speaker 11 (16:39):
I think it's cute.
Speaker 9 (16:40):
That is thirteen or fourteen year old brain.
Speaker 16 (16:42):
I thought, Oh, she loves dead Wait a second, Christie
loves dead flowers.
Speaker 17 (16:49):
That's a cute story. I love that.
Speaker 15 (16:51):
So do you have any thoughts on dating even though
you haven't dated since your twenties, or what you would
hope that I look for in my next relationship. Not
the qualities in the person, because I know that you
love my former Bin. Yes we've known him forever, so
it's not I do about that be very special to me,
but more so that what you hope for me and
(17:14):
maybe what I look for, like traveling or being spontaneous.
Speaker 17 (17:18):
Spontaneous spin could be that, but.
Speaker 9 (17:20):
I'm you know, working on that.
Speaker 15 (17:21):
Or are you and Ben looking for pickleball people to
like play with y'all something like that?
Speaker 17 (17:27):
Or people to sit around the campfire?
Speaker 9 (17:29):
Would you like them?
Speaker 15 (17:30):
Him to want to hike in the mountains with us
and ski, which you know my Bin did all Wait,
why did I get to wait?
Speaker 10 (17:37):
No?
Speaker 16 (17:38):
No, I mean, all of those things would be wonderful,
but I think the main thing I want to see
is I just want to see you really light up
when you're with them, And I honestly don't care about
anything else. So it makes me cry to say that
out loud, But I just think, whoever it is, and
I believe that he's out there, that he will walk
into your life with a force and.
Speaker 11 (18:01):
It can happen.
Speaker 16 (18:02):
It can happen, and nothing's perfect and no one's perfect.
You know, it's not going to be like some type
of fairy tale situation because that's not real life, but
just something where you'll definitely compliment each other and light
each other up vice versa. That I see he lights
you up as well, So that's the most important thing.
Speaker 17 (18:23):
Thank you for sharing that. I would like that too.
Speaker 16 (18:26):
And if he likes to ski and hike and enjoys
the mountains and wants to come to Pugosa all the time,
that would be awesome.
Speaker 9 (18:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (18:32):
If he wants to move to Colorado and Colorado, yeah,
that would be great.
Speaker 16 (18:36):
And well come see you Heredo, anyone know anyone, So we.
Speaker 17 (18:41):
Will be taking applications.
Speaker 15 (18:43):
Adelin just made a reference to last week's The water
Hoose podcasts and the water Hose spraying spraying water.
Speaker 17 (18:52):
As a quirky squirty, I.
Speaker 9 (18:54):
Don't say that.
Speaker 15 (18:54):
Yeah, this is more just me looking forward. It doesn't
mean what I didn't have for anything. Like I loved
my marriage. I love that we got two kids out
of it from Haiti and they have a whole new
life here and they're adjusting well to their time with
their mom and their time with their dad. And Ben
is dating, and clearly that's the thing, and I know
(19:18):
they're enjoying that, and they're getting to experience someone that's
pouring into their life. And I just too want if
I meet somebody, I need to make sure that they'll
pour into my kids as well.
Speaker 17 (19:28):
That would be.
Speaker 16 (19:29):
Part of you lighting up around them because you're not
having to dim any part of yourself to accommodate.
Speaker 17 (19:35):
And you know, Ben is wonderful. You're Ben is wonderful, You're.
Speaker 16 (19:39):
Been a lot, been, They're all they're just great Ben. No,
But what I was just saying is you you you're
a Ben.
Speaker 17 (19:48):
You have a hen.
Speaker 15 (19:51):
I know, but weird to now say your beIN or
my bin because he's not my beIN anymore. And he
probably always say you're been I know which I'm and
I will refer to him that way sometimes too, and
then I still call him uncle Ben.
Speaker 17 (20:03):
Yeah, and you should. Yeah, he is your own beIN.
Speaker 15 (20:07):
I just think out of respect for how how he's
progressed in his life right for me to say my
bin right, it's weird because he's in a relationship.
Speaker 17 (20:17):
Which is great.
Speaker 16 (20:19):
You know, you'll both have so much to offer people,
and you as a couple had lost your way with
each other because of a lot of factors. And so
I really hope it for both of you that as
you move on, because y'all are co parenting, you've got
these children. Of course, I love him and will always
be family, but I would like to see for both
(20:39):
of you that spark in whoever your partners are in
the future.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
We're going to do it live.
Speaker 13 (20:46):
We are the one, two, three sore losers.
Speaker 18 (20:52):
What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
about sports. I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions,
because I'm pretty much a sports genius.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Y'all.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
It's Sison.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
I'm from the North.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I'm an alpha male. I live on the.
Speaker 13 (21:04):
North side of Nashville. With Bayser my wife. We do
have a farm. It's beautiful, a lot of acreage, no animals,
a lot of crops hopefully soon corn pumpkins, rye. I
believe maybe a little fescue to be determined.
Speaker 18 (21:20):
Over to you, coach, And here's a clip from this
week's episode of The Sore Losers.
Speaker 13 (21:26):
It's like, you deposit, I deposit let's say, last Friday,
and then it puts the date of this Wednesday, so
then it looks like I just gambled on Wednesday. And
then Beazer goes, oh, oh, I just saw the checking account.
Oh you've been gambling. No, I mean actually technically I
deposited a week ago, but the stupid site decides to
delay it. It takes it from my account immediately. Yeah
it's small soapbox. But then it puts it that it
(21:49):
the transaction happened two days ago. Nope, I'm pretty sure
I haven't bet in like five days.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Okay, arrest my kids.
Speaker 18 (21:55):
It's sort of like when you charge your credit card
in the uber. You wrote in the uber on Wednesday
thank you, and the charge doesn't show up till Friday,
and it's like, well, why were you taking an uber
on Friday. No no, no, I took an uber on
Wednesday from the airport, but it doesn't show up till Friday.
I didn't actually get in the uber on Friday.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Thank you.
Speaker 13 (22:14):
I rest my case, but not fully. Also, when you
go to a restaurant or a bar, it puts fifty
five dollars charge, but it won't put the tip on
there for four days later. But the tip was factored
in immediately. Why can I not see that total that
next morning when I wake up hungover?
Speaker 18 (22:33):
Also question, why does sometimes you look at your bank account,
it's like, okay, you spent fifty four dollars at this restaurant.
Then the next line is twelve dollars from that restaurant.
They don't do it in one transaction. Sometimes they do
it in two transactions, so they put the tip separately.
Explain it to me.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
That I can't.
Speaker 13 (22:52):
The other one is, so say we see in the
this is a pretty close to example. You see in
the account eight hundred dollars. Baserwell pay a couple of
things electricity, water, sewage, still says eight hundred dollars. Then
she'll pay garbage eight hundred dollars. So then I log
in we've got eight hundred dollars. Oh yeah, I'm gambling, baby.
(23:16):
Oh no, no, no, no, There's five things I've paid
for that hasn't gotten removed yet from the checking account.
So the system in our checking account isn't advanced enough
the second you pay for something to subtract it from
that total, so I know the exact amount of money
in my account.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
They're setting you up to overdraft. I don't know why
they do that.
Speaker 18 (23:34):
I don't understand because sometimes I'll submit a reimbursement for
work and I will say, okay, yeah, blah blah blah.
We went to iHeart and Austin and I'm like, all right, yeah,
this is the weekend I put the dates were there,
and then I put my Uber receipt and they're like,
that is not in the dates that you were there.
And I'm like, dude, I can't help what the like
(23:55):
how it comes through the transaction two days later like
it was obviously in Austin. I live in Nashville. It
was like, you can tell that I didn't go down
there for a separate trip like a day later after
I came back.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
And then I have to fill.
Speaker 18 (24:10):
Out a form that says this is why it says
that it's like guys common sense.
Speaker 13 (24:14):
And also why to never share an account guys, this
should be the explanation. So I don't get to see
the savings account. The account is in both of our names,
Raymonds Sisson and Laura Sison, and she sees our checking account.
I see our checking account, she sees our savings account.
(24:36):
I don't see our savings account. For all I know,
we don't even have a savings account.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
So when you.
Speaker 18 (24:41):
Log in, the savings account doesn't show up when you
log in.
Speaker 13 (24:44):
Correct, And we went to the banker and we said, hey,
it doesn't show up that I have a savings account.
Speaker 17 (24:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 13 (24:48):
There's some glitch in the system. So you're probably gonna
have to start a new account. Okay, So then we
would cancel this entire thing, transfer our small amount of money.
It probably pretty easy. You can do it in one transaction,
and then the savings account's got to get transferred over
all because there's a glitch in the system. To this day,
I still don't see the savings account. So I send
(25:10):
her a text, Hey, how's the savings account looking. I
don't have access to it. I coach technology and sometimes
there's advancements and sometimes we regress. I'm blown away by
it right now.
Speaker 18 (25:24):
Takecare, dude. We have a little code box. You type
in a code. Boom boom boom, check your kid in.
And we have three kids. Boom boom boom, check them in,
and when you go to get them out, hit your code.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Check out, check out, check out.
Speaker 18 (25:37):
About a month ago, I go and I type in
my code to check them out, and only two of.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Their names are on there. Thought I had three.
Speaker 18 (25:46):
I said, I don't know if it's a big deal
because I figured this is how you keep your numbers.
But it only has two of my kids here, So
can I check the third one out? And they're like, yeah,
it's kind of a glitch. We're working on it. We'll
get it back up and run out. I'm like, cool, yeah,
glitches or bitches. Well guess what I went yesterday. It's
been over a month. I still only got two kids
on there, so their numbers are off every single day.
(26:09):
There is no way they know what how many kids
are at that school. Because one of my kids is
unaccounted for every time I drop him off at school.
Speaker 13 (26:17):
Well, you just wan up me. That's actually terrifying. But
if something happens, blame it on a glitch and they're
just like, oh, we're working on it. Well a month later,
guess what, we haven't fixed it. Yeah, banker, If my
wife leaves me and just fy, I have no access
so I can't even see the savings account.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
It's just a glitch.
Speaker 13 (26:34):
So what happens when my wife runs to Mexico and
I'm trying to get access to the savings account that
I don't ever see or it doesn't even exist in
my account?
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Oh, it's just a glitch.
Speaker 18 (26:43):
Hey, go to the divorce lawyer. So do you guys
have any accounts? Yeah, we have a savings account. We
why don't you pull me up the pull.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
That up for me, coach, Sorry sir, Well, actually I.
Speaker 18 (26:52):
Can't pull it up. So you're telling me that she's
the only one that has access to that account.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I'm sorry, that's her account.
Speaker 18 (26:58):
Then, yeah, that's bad news. It looks like she's only
one that can get money from that account. That's gonna
be hard to prove in court.
Speaker 13 (27:05):
And then don't even get me started on our payment
system here at work. If you want to log in
to see a pay stub, Oh, my god, I've told
Laura this course. She goes, She goes, hey, why can't
you just pull it up on your phone? You don't understand.
At work, we have to go through about eight different logins.
Now they have it on a separate portal. You click
on that portal, you click five times to finally reveal
(27:26):
your pay stub, and then it's in Morris code.
Speaker 18 (27:30):
You can't freaking code. I go, hey, regular, pre post update, downsize?
What held all these categories?
Speaker 13 (27:39):
What are you.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Getting paid for?
Speaker 18 (27:41):
Ray?
Speaker 13 (27:42):
I also get one.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Cold no uh endorsement.
Speaker 18 (27:46):
But then they don't tell you which endorsements you're getting
paid for, so you don't even know if you got
paid what you're supposed to get paid, because if you're
doing a commercial for this place or this place, the
salespeople just put it in there and you don't know.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Okay, then I get paid all of them. I don't know.
Speaker 13 (28:01):
But then the thing that really got me was a
separate portal from the portal. So we go into one portal,
then we have to teleport to another portal, and then
finally to a third portal to finally once we portalize.
But if you need something from a year before typically
from taxes. You then have to de portal to another portal.
Sometimes technology bends you over, takes a two by four
(28:25):
and sticks it.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Rock You want to hear another technology story, And I
tell her, Honey, I'm sore.
Speaker 13 (28:30):
Why do you think I'm walking weird?
Speaker 18 (28:32):
That two by four didn't feel good. I went to
a home improvement store the other day.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Oh, welcome man, happy to do it? How happy and healthy?
And that's a different store.
Speaker 7 (28:43):
That's that's shuddering.
Speaker 18 (28:45):
Yeah, I saw they're shuddering a lot of locations. That's
not happy and healthy. That is just depressing and sad.
And I am looking for this new I need a
new faucet for the sink. And I find it on
the website and it says it it's seventy four dollars.
That's a good price. I find it on the aisle
r it's made of gold, and it tells you it's
(29:07):
on aisle five bend ten cool, perfect, go get it there.
It's one hundred and ten dollars.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
It's a damn good drink.
Speaker 18 (29:16):
And I'm like, well, that doesn't make much sense. So
I walk up to the customer service desk and I
mean I literally type in the UPC code off the
box and it pulls up exactly, so it's the same one.
I know it's the same one. I do it twice
to double check my work. And I go up to
the count and I said, man, I'm a little confused.
(29:37):
I said, on the website it says it's seventy four dollars.
Now in the aisle says it's one hundred and ten dollars.
She goes, let me take a look at that.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Sure.
Speaker 18 (29:48):
She grabs a box, looks at my phone. She goes
other different products, and I said said, no, no, no,
I typed in the UPC code. She goes, no, she
looks at it. She goes, no, it's definitely a different product.
This one's different than the one you have on your phone.
And I said, okay, we'll tell me the difference. She's well,
I don't know what the difference is, but they're obviously different.
That was the answer. I mean, I can't tell you
(30:08):
why they're different, but they're different.
Speaker 19 (30:23):
Hey, it's Mike d And this week a movie Mike's
Movie Podcast, I shared what I think are the top
five final lines in film of all time. I did
my research, so I'm going to share a few picks
of mine with you here, but be sure to subscribe
to my podcast to hear this entire episode. Here what
took the top spots in all the honorable mentions. But
right now, here's a little bit of movie Mike's movie podcast.
(30:44):
So at number five from nineteen eighty five, Back to
the Future, Doc played by Christopher Lloyd, has this final
line in response to Marty.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
Hey, Doc, we've better back up.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
We don't have enough road to get up to eighty.
Speaker 19 (30:56):
Eight ROAs where we're going.
Speaker 15 (30:58):
We don't need roads.
Speaker 19 (31:05):
To have such an epic movie like Back to the Future,
you need a great ending, and Back to the Future's
final line completely nails it and sums up all the
adventure in this film. I believe Back to the Future
is a perfect film. I have a lot of movies
I believe are perfect films for me that I would
rate a five out of five. But maybe if I
(31:26):
had to make a list, there are just ten perfect
films of all time.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
Back to the.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Future is one of those movies.
Speaker 19 (31:33):
If aliens came down on this planet and had no
idea what a movie was, I would show them Back
to the Future because it has action, it has adventure.
It has sci fi, although if you are showing this
movie to an alien, they would be like, what is
this ancient technology? You stupid humans? And then it has romance,
It has some weirdness between guy and his mom. Yeah,
(31:55):
it gets into every category you can imagine. I feel
it is a perfect film and it embodies everything that
I love about movies. For the most part, when I
go back and think about this movie, this is always
the quote that sticks out to me. And while putting
together this list, I almost forgot that this was the
fact final scene in the movie.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
What a great quote. That is why back to the
future Rhodes, We're going.
Speaker 19 (32:20):
We don't need rhads is at number five at number
four from two thousand and two Spider Man, who was
played by Toby maguire. He is Peter Parker, he is
Spider Man, and this is the final line of dialogue
in that movie.
Speaker 20 (32:33):
Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never
forget these words. With great power comes great responsibility. This
is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider Man.
Speaker 19 (32:54):
There are so many reasons why that is such a
great final line. If you rewatch Spider Man from two
thousand and two. The movie starts with him saying, who
am I? Are you sure you want to know? And
he goes into this little monologue setting up the entire
story to come, and then it ends with that answering
that question, stating it again, who am I?
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I am?
Speaker 4 (33:15):
Spider Man?
Speaker 19 (33:16):
I love Out of every superhero, I think he has
the best hero journey and struggle of what it takes
to be a superhero, all that he sacrifices of wanting
to have love in his life, wanting to be with
MJ but then also knowing his responsibility to the city
of New York to be that friendly neighborhood Spider Man.
(33:38):
I think that is such a great struggle. And director
Sam Raimi did such a fantastic job with the storytelling
in this movie to bookend it like that, to open
asking that question and close it up by answering the
question and then cutting to some great Spider Man swinging footage.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
And then you also.
Speaker 19 (33:57):
Work in one of the most memorable superhero quotes of time,
one of the best mantras, with great power comes great responsibility,
which we heard earlier in the movie spoken to him
by his uncle Ben as he was passing away. So
to bring that quote into this it is so perfect.
It tells you exactly who Peter Parker and Spider Man
is and also is foreshadowing of what's to come in
(34:20):
two and how his story will be wrapped up in
spider Man three. So I think that is such a
great ending. And you think, with Spider Man being my
favorite character, that would be number one, but you'd probably
think that is where I would go, but not putting
that one at number four.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
At number three.
Speaker 19 (34:35):
From nineteen ninety it is Goodfellas Henry Hill played by
ray Leota. I just love it when movies and with
a really big, important monologue, and that is exactly what
happens in this movie. This is my favorite Martin Scorsese movie.
It's the movie that turned Rayle Oda into a superstar.
(34:56):
He played real life goodfella Henry Hill, and this you
really everything you need to know about this character, who
throughout the entire movie is doing everything in order not
to live a normal life. It is what he hates
the most in life. He doesn't want to wait in
line like everybody else. He wants the best treatment, he
(35:16):
wants to eat at the best restaurants, he wants to
have the money, drive the car, live in the fancy house.
And the worst thing you could do to a person
like that is put him into witness protection where he
has to be just a normal citizen. So I'll get
into more of why I love this final line, but
here it is from Goodfellas.
Speaker 12 (35:35):
Right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with
Marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
An average nobody.
Speaker 17 (35:44):
Get to live the rest of my life like a shnook.
Speaker 19 (35:46):
I love the touch that Scorsese put on the ending
of this movie when well, first it flashes back to
some things that happened in the movie. You have Joe
Peshi shooting a gun at the screen, but right is
Raliotic closes the door, you hear the sound of a
jail celle closing. And I think that's such a fine
(36:06):
little touch to add to this scene, because him going
back into his house in the suburbs is basically him
being in prison. Because at the time that this scene happens,
he rat it on everybody in exchange for not having
to go to prison, and even though he didn't go
into a real physical prison, his home has now become
(36:28):
that exact same thing, and like you said, he wanted
fancy spaghetti instead he got egg noodles in Ketchup. I
would always find myself saying that line. And this movie
also starts with one of the best opening lines of
all time, which is an episode for another day, but
it embodies everything I love about a crime movie. The rise,
Oh and then the fall when they fall so hard
(36:50):
and you see him just standing there in his robes,
so defeated. What a great line, What a great delivery
from Ray Liota rip from nineteen ninety eight, number three.
Speaker 4 (37:00):
I have a good fellas.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
Carl Line.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
She's a queen and talking with a song.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
She's getting really not afraid to fings episode, so just
let it flow.
Speaker 19 (37:23):
No one can do we quiet, Cary Line, It is
sounding Caroline.
Speaker 21 (37:31):
Hey, y'all, it's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
And here is a clip from this week's episode. You
are really wonderful at sharing your story because like you're
you have such a testimony for your life. But like
you were married and your wife died four weeks before
you went on American Idol, How did you must have
the courage to do that?
Speaker 22 (37:50):
Well, there was a few things because quite honestly, I
didn't want to go after that. I just when you
lose someone, you feel like you amputate a part of
your soul. And I don't know, you know, I know
that we've all went through losses.
Speaker 14 (38:03):
Their wife. I mean that's like, that's serious.
Speaker 22 (38:05):
And if you think about, like the scriptures talk about that,
you are one, right, so they're really the amputation felt
so real. I didn't want to do it. I did
want to do it because she's the one that got
me to want to do it. But then the try
was four.
Speaker 7 (38:18):
Weeks after her being so raw.
Speaker 9 (38:21):
Oh, it was absolutely and it was unexpected.
Speaker 21 (38:23):
Right, she went in for like her heart was beating
really fast and like she had heart issues, but like
nobody was expecting it.
Speaker 22 (38:29):
Hurt past her surgery had a ninety percent success rate,
and I remember saying goodbye to her.
Speaker 7 (38:36):
I went to work that day.
Speaker 14 (38:37):
You thought it was going to be so routine, well
not routine, but just like I knew.
Speaker 22 (38:41):
It was kind of a big deal because it's a
heart surgery and it's always a big deal. But I
didn't want to acknowledge that it was a big deal.
And plus the doctor gave me enough confidence. I had
my faith to stand on. You know, I think sometimes
when we have our faith to stand on, you know,
we can become oblivious to some situations. That's where I was.
I mean, I was twenty seven. I didn't want to
(39:01):
acknowledge that. So I went to work that day. I
worked at the cheesecake factory, of all places, and I
could barely.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
I think I was probably the worst server that day.
Speaker 22 (39:12):
Wasn't a good server anyways, you know, I just absent
minded a lot of my mind and she I got
the call and I that the surgery didn't go as well,
went to the hospital, never went back to work again,
stayed in the hospital. They put on an artificial heart.
It was like a two week process, and when we
prayed to all the tears dried up. I mean I
had no tears left in my body. And she passed
(39:34):
away unexpectedly. Going on the show for artificial heart put in.
So what they do is they if your heart stop,
if it stops working and it's about to lose it,
to put you on a transplant list. They'll put you
on an artificial heart, which is this huge machine. I
forgot what they call it, and it's they put these
they had these two tubes just in her chest, like
doing the work of her heart for her.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
I think.
Speaker 14 (39:58):
For her it only works in the hospital.
Speaker 22 (40:00):
You can't like live, could never live with it because
this is massive. I mean, this is back in two
thousand and eight, this massive machine, and it's basically pumping
blood for you. And we won on the artificial we
went on the transplant list. She never made it, and
I was absolutely devastated, and it was the last year
I could go on American automt So now I'm kind
of answering your question. I went on American out of
(40:21):
reluctantly because it's four weeks after her passing. Because if
had I not done it then, and I told her
I would do it, and she was excited for me
to do it, then I would have no chance afterwards.
Speaker 14 (40:31):
He had twenty seven was the cutoff.
Speaker 22 (40:32):
Twenty eight, and I was going to turn twenty eight
the next year, so August two thousand and eight, it
was actually August eight, two thousand and eight was my
first trial date. And eight means new beginnings if you
look it up, like number, like numerology in the Bible anyways,
and so I was like it kind of meant something
to me thinking and it was the eighth season of
American Idol. Like all these things, I just kind of,
(40:53):
you know, run with day twenty eight. All things work
together for are good. You know what I'm saying, Like
things work together. And so I went on the show,
took third place. But here's a good thing for me. Sorry,
I'm pointing my finger at you, like listen here right here.
I needed something bigger than me. Yes, yeah, I needed
a bigger vision because when we go through depression, when
(41:15):
we go through you know, a loss, when we walk
through unexpected situations, we're disappointed to a place that almost
like a root of bitterness is on the inside of us,
and it's kind of poisoning us because we're just so
bitter at how life turned out. I needed a bigger vision,
going to La going on a TV show, sharing my story,
the possibility of a music career, something I did music.
Speaker 14 (41:36):
I had hope.
Speaker 21 (41:37):
You had hope, and you had a place to put
your pain that could serve others absolutely and yourself, and honestly,
talking about stuff helps so much.
Speaker 22 (41:47):
The thing that I think, the more that we can
forget about ourselves and focus on something else is a
key to finding happiness, to finding purpose and a reason
to stay alive, and go on the show with this
mission of if I share my story, and of course
I was walking it out, maybe they'll give hope to someone.
Speaker 14 (42:06):
You were just as raw as you could be.
Speaker 22 (42:08):
I mean, one of the someone who met me at
my concert and said I had the gun out that day.
She said, my my fiance committed suicide months earlier and
I just couldn't live anymore. The TV's on in a
different room. She's in a different with the gun, getting
ready to commit suicide, and she hears a man crying
on a TV.
Speaker 7 (42:28):
That that sparked her. It just kind of.
Speaker 22 (42:33):
It was that they were telling my story and it
asked me questions about it, and she walked out. It's
just piqued her curiosity for the moment, and she saw
me share my story and she said from that point,
she said, if he can make it, I can make it.
I mean, this is one of many. So forgetting about ourselves.
(42:55):
You know, what's the one thing in our culture. I
think that maybe is putting us in a deeper pit.
I know we are thinking about ourselves too much.
Speaker 21 (43:02):
And our feelings and how we feel about stuff and
how it affects us.
Speaker 7 (43:05):
The ego and you're you're artist, right you saying country music?
Speaker 14 (43:10):
Yeah, I've been an artist sorts for.
Speaker 22 (43:12):
Yes, we are the top offenders because what do we
do think about?
Speaker 21 (43:17):
You are your brand, You are your what you're putting
into the world is you.
Speaker 7 (43:20):
And your art's and entertainment. This is where you are,
This is where I am.
Speaker 22 (43:25):
We constantly have to be on We constantly have to
be this thing because we want to keep people's interests.
Because the moment we lose people's interests is the moment
that part of our identity goes.
Speaker 7 (43:35):
And it's so and it's.
Speaker 14 (43:37):
Like, do you have value anymore? Or do you have
earth anymore? Who am I?
Speaker 7 (43:40):
And so we think about ourselves more.
Speaker 14 (43:43):
And then you go into the whole why don't people
like me? What do I need to do? What do
I need to change? How do I need to like
sing a dance to perform for you? So you love Megan?
Speaker 7 (43:51):
Why do you think I dance? And I'm no good
at it? I'm no good at it?
Speaker 1 (44:05):
Hey, thanks for listening.
Speaker 2 (44:06):
If you heard a clip of something you liked, go
go check it out, go subscribe.
Speaker 1 (44:09):
That would help us a bunch. Thank you have a
great day.
Not for another Sunday sampler.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Sore Losers coming up and they'll talk about the Walker
Hayes Charity golf tournament. Caroline Hobby sat down with Christian
singer and former American Idol alum Danny Goki and on
the Bobby Cast, Litt was on fasing that song.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Can't We Forget About Things?
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I said when I was drunk it did mean to
call you that.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
So here they are talking about Woodstock ninety nine. Let's
kick off the sampler with Litt. It's been twenty five
years since My ow Worst Enemy. I did not know that.
It feels like it feels like fifty years but also
like three years at the same time, totally like that songs.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Was it in a was it in a movie first?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Or was it just a straight radio single that they
just put out as itself?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Did it then exist in every movie after that?
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Yeah? It was a radio off quickly?
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Y Yeah, okay, because for a while it was in
everything and then it like five years ago it started
popping up in everything again, which is really cool, cool
life of a song to have. So was that the
first single from lit My Own Worst Enemy?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
First?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
First?
Speaker 4 (01:15):
That was the first song that went to radio with us.
Speaker 5 (01:17):
So the album that was called you know Lit whatever
that was before A Place in the Sun got it.
So A Place in the Sun was our first major
label record.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Yea enemy was on that.
Speaker 6 (01:28):
We might have got a little bit of like college
radio love on the album before A Place in the Sun,
but yeah, I was it was minor.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
It was like it was building block.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
So Lit the record still stayed the name Lit. It
was self titled. Right at that point we.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Changed it to Tripping the Light Fantastic.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yep, Okay, that's a lot different than Lit. And yeah,
so is that the one though that was heard that
got you guys the big looks that then created A
Place in the Sun? Or was it all the music
from A Place in the Sun that somebody heard and
that really was it?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Yeah? It was the new batch of songs?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Who hear's those? How does that work?
Speaker 5 (02:02):
We had a manager and we we were shopping and
just getting turned down by everybody, even my owners. Sentiment
got turned down by everybody, including our CAA who ended
up signing us.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
They turned it down the first.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Time, What with what reason? Or did they not even
give one? All you got back was in it?
Speaker 5 (02:19):
I mean back then they would just say we don't
hear a hit, we don't hear a single or whatever.
And two of the four songs on that demo that
everyone passed on ended up being huge hits.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
So who heard it as it later? Was it somebody
different that worked.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
With the radio guy at RCAA Records heard it?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
And at the time what was on the radio? Was it?
Was it other rock stuff or what? Because my years
get blittery at this point, was that sound a lot
different or was that sound just a growth of what
was already starting to be popular because it was after
the nineties grunge stuff.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
Yep, it was a lot different at the time. It
was really mixed up and you know, like Blink was
getting big around the same time. We would tour together
like a warped tour and all that. We were both
kind of bubbling over. We were sort of the first,
I guess alternative rock band to start kicking doors open
at like pop radio.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Was it boy band time?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
But then that was pretty huge then too.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Yeah, yeah, But on alternative radio and rock radio, it
was a lot of you know, it.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Was creed and corn or chili peppers, biscuit biscuit corn.
Those guys wimp Biscuit was coming up.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Moby Oh yeah, Moby dang mobe in a long time.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
I mean that's when Minem was like an alternative Yeah, yeah,
you know why because it was white.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yeah, crazy, I mean so.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
And I worked in pop radio forever, worked in alternative radio.
So did you guys get we'll say service to alternative
radio first? Were they like, you're a rock band, we're
taking the rock band to the rock stations, or were
they going, this is so universal, like we believe we're
going to pop.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Where did that go?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Well, pop wasn't really messing with a lot of rock,
so it wasn't so it killed it at rock first,
alternative before.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
Yeah, it kind of went to pop because it was
so big and it didn't have anywhere else to go.
But at first it was it was alternative rock and
like whatever they called the other one active rock.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Sure, it was all rock at first, and so you
would be on those festivals. Did you guys ever play
in it?
Speaker 7 (04:16):
You're right?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
You good?
Speaker 7 (04:17):
You know?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Oh no, you're good, You're good. Even if you are,
we'll enjoy the noise together. Did you guys do any
of those the Woodstocks.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
We did ninety nine? You know, the one everyone's talking about.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Now, the one that all the crap went wrong? Well,
what was it as bad as the documentary shows.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
With what you guys saw, No we saw because there.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Was no water.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I mean from what I saw, it was like everybody
was like dying of thirst and everything was burning down.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
That wasn't your experience.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
We got in and out first day, so we just
I mean it was it was awesome for us.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
We were on tour with Offspring at the time, and
so both bands played day one and then we kind
of when all hell broke loose at Woodstock, we were
already like two shows later, you know, playing amphitheaters.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
And in this subject that would have been good for
the documentary. You got the stories kind of fun and boring.
You're like, yeah, we had a great time.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
It was awesome.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
I mean, there was a lot of shenanigans going on,
but it was like.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah, from what the theme of that that documentary was,
because I remember it part and again, I was a
big alternative kid. I was like country of marketsas so
country music talked about where I was from, but alternative
music talked about what I felt. And I was the
first generation of napster so when Napster hit, like I
would just hit the letter L, download every song on
that started the letter L in every format and just
(05:32):
have the ability. At the time, I thought was my
rightful I deserved every song for free. I mean idiot,
because we all thought that, or least I thought that.
But you know, it was a a download streaming kid.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
It was also a CD kid.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
I was also a tape kid, so I was able
to have really all of that type of culture. I
guess the only thing I missed was vinyl. But was
a big alternative kid. And so when they showed that
festival and they would the front like all the bands
playing it, it seemed like a pretty aggressive, harder rock
festival than maybe what the original was. Did you guys
(06:08):
feel that at all? Or was that just the music
at the time. Was it just like this is ninety
nine or ninety six, this is just what's popular right
now more than it is we're trying to create some
rock fest version two.
Speaker 7 (06:19):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
I feel like a lot of the heavier stuff came
out at night, but there were some you know, Elvis
Costell actually played, I didn't get to see him.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Like Jewel played too.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
I think there were Noel and like Cheryl Crow and
it was like g Love and Special Saw. I mean
it was but the big ones where you know, your
Corn and Limp Biscuit and Chili Peppers and and in
Offspring and you know, we were playing a lot of
big radio festivals in those days, and they were all
kind of like they all had a lot of those
same bands, which really is kind of hasn't been like
(06:54):
that since there was massive, massive artists on these radio
festivals back then and still probably now more so in pop,
but I mean just an alternative.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Back then, it was wild.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
The bands that we got to play with we were
huge fans of, and it was it was pretty cool.
Speaker 8 (07:19):
Yeah, you're listening to in the Vets Office with doctor
Josie Horschak.
Speaker 9 (07:26):
Today we're going to have the beautiful and incredibly talented
Mackenzie Porter in the Vets office. Not only is she
our friend, but you also probably know her from her
lead role on the Netflix series The Travelers or her
booming music career. Her and Dustin Lynch spent many weeks
in the number one spot on country music radio for
their song think About You. I still love that song too.
(07:48):
I'm super excited to have her on today. Coming up next,
Mackenzie Porter with doctor Josie. Welcome to in the Vets Office,
Mackenzie Porter. I'm know holligannurferd you as Mac this entire episode.
And for the listeners out there that can't see us,
we are twinning today. We came pretty much in the
(08:10):
exact same outfit and this was not planned.
Speaker 10 (08:12):
I know.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
This means we're good friends and we're on the same
waveleg exactly.
Speaker 9 (08:16):
So we got your intro out of the way, and
now we need to get to the real star of
the show. Here we have on this podcast. We call
it b Yo D Bring your Own Dog. So tell
us a little bit about miss Willa, this little beast,
we call her the Beast. She her name's Willa. Her
name's Willa Bean. Okay Porter Ethridge. She has the full
name Willa Bean Porter Ethrick.
Speaker 8 (08:37):
Yes, a star, a star, and she is almost five
year old multi poo poo, which is like very uncle like.
Speaker 11 (08:45):
I remember my husband when I was like, we're getting
a multipoopoo.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
He's like any other dog, any other like there's no
there's nothing cool about that dog.
Speaker 11 (08:51):
And now he's obsessed with her.
Speaker 9 (08:53):
So she's like palling at me a multi poopoo. So
we've got a Maltese and a poodle or a stumble poodle.
Speaker 12 (08:59):
I see.
Speaker 8 (09:00):
I think she was like bread a multipoo uh huh,
and then a multeese and then with another.
Speaker 11 (09:06):
Poodle, maybe with another heard the poo poo.
Speaker 9 (09:08):
Yes, okay, I love that. And how old is Willebane?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
So she's almost five August she'll be five almost five?
Speaker 13 (09:15):
Love that?
Speaker 9 (09:16):
And you have recently announced that you are expecting a
baby girl? Do you think that she knows?
Speaker 8 (09:23):
So it's funny, like I feel like the very beginning,
I was like she has to know because she kept
kind of cuddling my tummy and like wanting to be
near me.
Speaker 11 (09:32):
And now I don't know, Like.
Speaker 8 (09:34):
It's you know, it's hard hard to say, like she
definitely smells my tummy a lot, okay, because I feel
like you, I mean, dogs obviously can sense that kind
of thing. I think she's I wouldn't say she's the
sharpest tool in the shed, but she is very cuddly,
improtective of me. Like even the other day Jake was
like tickling me or I can't remember, he wasn't tickling
me like he went to grab me for a hug
or something, and she would start barking at him. So
(09:55):
she's more protective. And I think that's since the pregnancy.
Speaker 9 (09:58):
I hear a lot of women and say that that
they become more protective when they're pregnant, So you're not
the first time, which is.
Speaker 11 (10:04):
Kind of the most like beautiful thing.
Speaker 8 (10:05):
I love that so much, Like that a dog can
just sense like a new family member.
Speaker 11 (10:11):
Yeah, I don't know that, they're just they're so aware.
Speaker 9 (10:14):
How do you think she'll do when you bring the
baby home?
Speaker 8 (10:16):
So we we always talk about this, like I think
she loves kids. We have neighbors that have kids, so
I feel really confident about that. We've also just been
like we have to make sure we get her attention. Still, yes,
but I think i'd be fine, Like we're gonna do
the whole like let the baby lay in the blanket
and then let her smell the blanket and then introduce
her to the baby.
Speaker 11 (10:36):
But I feel like she'll be totally fine.
Speaker 9 (10:37):
Yeah, I think so. I mean, I know her, so
I think so. But I do think that's really important
for listeners out there. If you know you're gonna want
a family. Exposing your dog and getting them desensitized and
socialized with kids is so important because yeah, I mean,
it's going to be a huge part of your life.
And I will be interested to hear your feedback on
the age old question of do you love your human
(10:59):
children more than your for children, because I'm convinced I won't.
Speaker 11 (11:02):
I mean too that makes me like crying.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
Like I've heard people be like, oh, you won't even
care about your dog anymore?
Speaker 11 (11:07):
Yeah, And I'm like that breaks my heart right now.
Speaker 9 (11:10):
It's not possible.
Speaker 8 (11:11):
It's not I mean, I think you know, we have
enough love to go around, and I'm sure like there
will be times where it's annoying if she's barking, the
baby wakes up or whatever, or like taking her out
and we're just kind of like swamped be a challenge.
Speaker 11 (11:25):
But I just don't think I could love her, no,
any of us.
Speaker 9 (11:29):
No, I don't think so either. So you know, you're
a musician, you're on tour a lot. Has she gone
on tour with you? And how does she do?
Speaker 8 (11:37):
She does so well. I'm like so impressed with her.
I'm just a proud mom. She does so well, so
we her big tour was We did like a run
with Dan and Shay and you know, I feel like those.
Speaker 11 (11:50):
Guys are like dog people too, totally.
Speaker 8 (11:52):
So it was amphitheaters and she loved it, and like
everybody loved her backstage and of course, like when the
show's going her sound check, that's like loud and scary
for her, but we would just throw her back on
the bus and she was fine.
Speaker 11 (12:04):
She was totally fine, and she's flown. She's a really
good traveler.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
She loves car rides, so I think because we did
that like very early on in her life that she's pretty.
Speaker 11 (12:13):
Used to them.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
She's such a like an entertainer's dog.
Speaker 8 (12:16):
She is, Yeah, she is, and she loves music and
she loves like I mean, she is in Jake studio
with him recording every single day and that's just her life.
Speaker 11 (12:24):
She's a studio pup.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
So Max's husband, Jake is also a very talented musician.
Have either you or Jake written a song about her?
Speaker 11 (12:31):
Or we definitely have written like joke songs, Yeah, like
nothing's making my.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
Record like at home that you'll sing to her.
Speaker 11 (12:39):
Yes, she's a theme song.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
Will you maybe give us one little hint of what
that sounds.
Speaker 11 (12:44):
Like do you remember the show Pepraham?
Speaker 12 (12:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (12:48):
Do you remember it?
Speaker 9 (12:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (12:49):
So her theme song is will Lev will Leby. She's
still cool for seventh grade, Willa Bean. It's like a million.
Speaker 14 (12:58):
Amazing.
Speaker 11 (12:59):
She's like ready for her, She's like, who we.
Speaker 12 (13:20):
Le cass up little food for yourself life ain't Oh
it's pretty Bay, It's pretty beautiful man, beautiful laughs a
little more exciting, said, he can't he You're kicking it
(13:43):
with Full Thing with Amy Brown.
Speaker 15 (13:46):
Hey, it's Amy Brown from Four Things with Amy Brown.
Speaker 9 (13:48):
And here's what.
Speaker 15 (13:49):
We talked about this week on my podcast.
Speaker 10 (13:52):
One piece of advice that you gave me recently was
mom got engaged her senior year and that's something that
some of my friends have done, and that's great. But
your advice to me was, don't rush to the next
season while a really good season is already happening. Don't
rush to the season of being engaged. Be present, be
where my feet are, and then that will come if
(14:13):
its meant to be in God's timing. And I really
liked that advice and it made me feel like it
is okay to take things slow and there's no need
to rush to get engaged.
Speaker 11 (14:22):
Or to get married.
Speaker 16 (14:23):
Yeah, well, everybody's on their own timeline. But I was
just giving you my perspective, even though that's how we
did do things. And I did get engaged my senior year,
and then we got married right after I graduated. I
really realized that I felt like planning for the wedding
and planning for the marriage overlapped with me enjoying the
very end of my senior year of college. And it's
(14:45):
like these two seasons really overlapped. And so I was
just trying to share my perspective and I liked it.
No matter what's happening with your friends, you were on
your own timeline, and it's okay to draw things out
a little longer than maybe other people are.
Speaker 9 (15:00):
So Ben, you're Ben.
Speaker 15 (15:02):
So I was mind you had been which happened to
be her beIN's bff. But what's the flower story since
we were talking about flowers earlier. Oh into my head
about what he did when y'all were in junior high.
Speaker 16 (15:13):
Yeah, well, my Ben and I, actually you're beIN and
I too. We all met in middle school youth group
at church. So my Bin, we actually became boyfriend girlfriend
in middle school and kind of dated a little bit
through high school.
Speaker 17 (15:26):
Then we broke up and he dated somebody else for
a long time.
Speaker 16 (15:28):
We don't need talk, We don't really need to talk
about all the details of that. But nonetheless, he had
come over to my house. And I was in gymnastics
and a dancer in high school. So it was like
my freshman year of high school, and I had done
some performances and sometimes you would get flowers.
Speaker 17 (15:42):
People would bring you roses. Oh, good job on your performance.
Speaker 16 (15:44):
Well then I would save those roses like that dozen roses,
dry them, hang them upside down, dry them, and then
they'd be sitting around my room really beautiful.
Speaker 17 (15:54):
And so Ben comes over.
Speaker 16 (15:55):
He sees, oh, she likes dead flowers, okay, And so
his stepmom and dad had a recent anniversary. His dad
had given some flowers. The flowers were about to be
thrown out because they were wilty and gross and ugly,
and Ben's like, oh no, no, no, don't throw them out.
Christie loves dead flowers. So then he brought me his
(16:18):
parents old used dying that anniversary flowers because he thought
I would love them. And so the differences they weren't
the flowers given to me, they were.
Speaker 11 (16:29):
Given to somebody else.
Speaker 16 (16:31):
So I think that's the sentiment of keeping dried flowers
is typically that's because they were given to you alive and.
Speaker 17 (16:37):
Beautiful, and then you saved them.
Speaker 11 (16:39):
I think it's cute.
Speaker 9 (16:40):
That is thirteen or fourteen year old brain.
Speaker 16 (16:42):
I thought, Oh, she loves dead Wait a second, Christie
loves dead flowers.
Speaker 17 (16:49):
That's a cute story. I love that.
Speaker 15 (16:51):
So do you have any thoughts on dating even though
you haven't dated since your twenties, or what you would
hope that I look for in my next relationship. Not
the qualities in the person, because I know that you
love my former Bin. Yes we've known him forever, so
it's not I do about that be very special to me,
but more so that what you hope for me and
(17:14):
maybe what I look for, like traveling or being spontaneous.
Speaker 17 (17:18):
Spontaneous spin could be that, but.
Speaker 9 (17:20):
I'm you know, working on that.
Speaker 15 (17:21):
Or are you and Ben looking for pickleball people to
like play with y'all something like that?
Speaker 17 (17:27):
Or people to sit around the campfire?
Speaker 9 (17:29):
Would you like them?
Speaker 15 (17:30):
Him to want to hike in the mountains with us
and ski, which you know my Bin did all Wait,
why did I get to wait?
Speaker 10 (17:37):
No?
Speaker 16 (17:38):
No, I mean, all of those things would be wonderful,
but I think the main thing I want to see
is I just want to see you really light up
when you're with them, And I honestly don't care about
anything else. So it makes me cry to say that
out loud, But I just think, whoever it is, and
I believe that he's out there, that he will walk
into your life with a force and.
Speaker 11 (18:01):
It can happen.
Speaker 16 (18:02):
It can happen, and nothing's perfect and no one's perfect.
You know, it's not going to be like some type
of fairy tale situation because that's not real life, but
just something where you'll definitely compliment each other and light
each other up vice versa. That I see he lights
you up as well, So that's the most important thing.
Speaker 17 (18:23):
Thank you for sharing that. I would like that too.
Speaker 16 (18:26):
And if he likes to ski and hike and enjoys
the mountains and wants to come to Pugosa all the time,
that would be awesome.
Speaker 9 (18:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (18:32):
If he wants to move to Colorado and Colorado, yeah,
that would be great.
Speaker 16 (18:36):
And well come see you Heredo, anyone know anyone, So we.
Speaker 17 (18:41):
Will be taking applications.
Speaker 15 (18:43):
Adelin just made a reference to last week's The water
Hoose podcasts and the water Hose spraying spraying water.
Speaker 17 (18:52):
As a quirky squirty, I.
Speaker 9 (18:54):
Don't say that.
Speaker 15 (18:54):
Yeah, this is more just me looking forward. It doesn't
mean what I didn't have for anything. Like I loved
my marriage. I love that we got two kids out
of it from Haiti and they have a whole new
life here and they're adjusting well to their time with
their mom and their time with their dad. And Ben
is dating, and clearly that's the thing, and I know
(19:18):
they're enjoying that, and they're getting to experience someone that's
pouring into their life. And I just too want if
I meet somebody, I need to make sure that they'll
pour into my kids as well.
Speaker 17 (19:28):
That would be.
Speaker 16 (19:29):
Part of you lighting up around them because you're not
having to dim any part of yourself to accommodate.
Speaker 17 (19:35):
And you know, Ben is wonderful. You're Ben is wonderful, You're.
Speaker 16 (19:39):
Been a lot, been, They're all they're just great Ben. No,
But what I was just saying is you you you're
a Ben.
Speaker 17 (19:48):
You have a hen.
Speaker 15 (19:51):
I know, but weird to now say your beIN or
my bin because he's not my beIN anymore. And he
probably always say you're been I know which I'm and
I will refer to him that way sometimes too, and
then I still call him uncle Ben.
Speaker 17 (20:03):
Yeah, and you should. Yeah, he is your own beIN.
Speaker 15 (20:07):
I just think out of respect for how how he's
progressed in his life right for me to say my
bin right, it's weird because he's in a relationship.
Speaker 17 (20:17):
Which is great.
Speaker 16 (20:19):
You know, you'll both have so much to offer people,
and you as a couple had lost your way with
each other because of a lot of factors. And so
I really hope it for both of you that as
you move on, because y'all are co parenting, you've got
these children. Of course, I love him and will always
be family, but I would like to see for both
(20:39):
of you that spark in whoever your partners are in
the future.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
We're going to do it live.
Speaker 13 (20:46):
We are the one, two, three sore losers.
Speaker 18 (20:52):
What up, everybody? I am lunchbox. I know the most
about sports. I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions,
because I'm pretty much a sports genius.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Y'all.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
It's Sison.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
I'm from the North.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I'm an alpha male. I live on the.
Speaker 13 (21:04):
North side of Nashville. With Bayser my wife. We do
have a farm. It's beautiful, a lot of acreage, no animals,
a lot of crops hopefully soon corn pumpkins, rye. I
believe maybe a little fescue to be determined.
Speaker 18 (21:20):
Over to you, coach, And here's a clip from this
week's episode of The Sore Losers.
Speaker 13 (21:26):
It's like, you deposit, I deposit let's say, last Friday,
and then it puts the date of this Wednesday, so
then it looks like I just gambled on Wednesday. And
then Beazer goes, oh, oh, I just saw the checking account.
Oh you've been gambling. No, I mean actually technically I
deposited a week ago, but the stupid site decides to
delay it. It takes it from my account immediately. Yeah
it's small soapbox. But then it puts it that it
(21:49):
the transaction happened two days ago. Nope, I'm pretty sure
I haven't bet in like five days.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Okay, arrest my kids.
Speaker 18 (21:55):
It's sort of like when you charge your credit card
in the uber. You wrote in the uber on Wednesday
thank you, and the charge doesn't show up till Friday,
and it's like, well, why were you taking an uber
on Friday. No no, no, I took an uber on
Wednesday from the airport, but it doesn't show up till Friday.
I didn't actually get in the uber on Friday.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Thank you.
Speaker 13 (22:14):
I rest my case, but not fully. Also, when you
go to a restaurant or a bar, it puts fifty
five dollars charge, but it won't put the tip on
there for four days later. But the tip was factored
in immediately. Why can I not see that total that
next morning when I wake up hungover?
Speaker 18 (22:33):
Also question, why does sometimes you look at your bank account,
it's like, okay, you spent fifty four dollars at this restaurant.
Then the next line is twelve dollars from that restaurant.
They don't do it in one transaction. Sometimes they do
it in two transactions, so they put the tip separately.
Explain it to me.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
That I can't.
Speaker 13 (22:52):
The other one is, so say we see in the
this is a pretty close to example. You see in
the account eight hundred dollars. Baserwell pay a couple of
things electricity, water, sewage, still says eight hundred dollars. Then
she'll pay garbage eight hundred dollars. So then I log
in we've got eight hundred dollars. Oh yeah, I'm gambling, baby.
(23:16):
Oh no, no, no, no, There's five things I've paid
for that hasn't gotten removed yet from the checking account.
So the system in our checking account isn't advanced enough
the second you pay for something to subtract it from
that total, so I know the exact amount of money
in my account.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
They're setting you up to overdraft. I don't know why
they do that.
Speaker 18 (23:34):
I don't understand because sometimes I'll submit a reimbursement for
work and I will say, okay, yeah, blah blah blah.
We went to iHeart and Austin and I'm like, all right, yeah,
this is the weekend I put the dates were there,
and then I put my Uber receipt and they're like,
that is not in the dates that you were there.
And I'm like, dude, I can't help what the like
(23:55):
how it comes through the transaction two days later like
it was obviously in Austin. I live in Nashville. It
was like, you can tell that I didn't go down
there for a separate trip like a day later after
I came back.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
And then I have to fill.
Speaker 18 (24:10):
Out a form that says this is why it says
that it's like guys common sense.
Speaker 13 (24:14):
And also why to never share an account guys, this
should be the explanation. So I don't get to see
the savings account. The account is in both of our names,
Raymonds Sisson and Laura Sison, and she sees our checking account.
I see our checking account, she sees our savings account.
(24:36):
I don't see our savings account. For all I know,
we don't even have a savings account.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
So when you.
Speaker 18 (24:41):
Log in, the savings account doesn't show up when you
log in.
Speaker 13 (24:44):
Correct, And we went to the banker and we said, hey,
it doesn't show up that I have a savings account.
Speaker 17 (24:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 13 (24:48):
There's some glitch in the system. So you're probably gonna
have to start a new account. Okay, So then we
would cancel this entire thing, transfer our small amount of money.
It probably pretty easy. You can do it in one transaction,
and then the savings account's got to get transferred over
all because there's a glitch in the system. To this day,
I still don't see the savings account. So I send
(25:10):
her a text, Hey, how's the savings account looking. I
don't have access to it. I coach technology and sometimes
there's advancements and sometimes we regress. I'm blown away by
it right now.
Speaker 18 (25:24):
Takecare, dude. We have a little code box. You type
in a code. Boom boom boom, check your kid in.
And we have three kids. Boom boom boom, check them in,
and when you go to get them out, hit your code.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Check out, check out, check out.
Speaker 18 (25:37):
About a month ago, I go and I type in
my code to check them out, and only two of.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Their names are on there. Thought I had three.
Speaker 18 (25:46):
I said, I don't know if it's a big deal
because I figured this is how you keep your numbers.
But it only has two of my kids here, So
can I check the third one out? And they're like, yeah,
it's kind of a glitch. We're working on it. We'll
get it back up and run out. I'm like, cool, yeah,
glitches or bitches. Well guess what I went yesterday. It's
been over a month. I still only got two kids
on there, so their numbers are off every single day.
(26:09):
There is no way they know what how many kids
are at that school. Because one of my kids is
unaccounted for every time I drop him off at school.
Speaker 13 (26:17):
Well, you just wan up me. That's actually terrifying. But
if something happens, blame it on a glitch and they're
just like, oh, we're working on it. Well a month later,
guess what, we haven't fixed it. Yeah, banker, If my
wife leaves me and just fy, I have no access
so I can't even see the savings account.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
It's just a glitch.
Speaker 13 (26:34):
So what happens when my wife runs to Mexico and
I'm trying to get access to the savings account that
I don't ever see or it doesn't even exist in
my account?
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Oh, it's just a glitch.
Speaker 18 (26:43):
Hey, go to the divorce lawyer. So do you guys
have any accounts? Yeah, we have a savings account. We
why don't you pull me up the pull.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
That up for me, coach, Sorry sir, Well, actually I.
Speaker 18 (26:52):
Can't pull it up. So you're telling me that she's
the only one that has access to that account.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I'm sorry, that's her account.
Speaker 18 (26:58):
Then, yeah, that's bad news. It looks like she's only
one that can get money from that account. That's gonna
be hard to prove in court.
Speaker 13 (27:05):
And then don't even get me started on our payment
system here at work. If you want to log in
to see a pay stub, Oh, my god, I've told
Laura this course. She goes, She goes, hey, why can't
you just pull it up on your phone? You don't understand.
At work, we have to go through about eight different logins.
Now they have it on a separate portal. You click
on that portal, you click five times to finally reveal
(27:26):
your pay stub, and then it's in Morris code.
Speaker 18 (27:30):
You can't freaking code. I go, hey, regular, pre post update, downsize?
What held all these categories?
Speaker 13 (27:39):
What are you.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Getting paid for?
Speaker 18 (27:41):
Ray?
Speaker 13 (27:42):
I also get one.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Cold no uh endorsement.
Speaker 18 (27:46):
But then they don't tell you which endorsements you're getting
paid for, so you don't even know if you got
paid what you're supposed to get paid, because if you're
doing a commercial for this place or this place, the
salespeople just put it in there and you don't know.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Okay, then I get paid all of them. I don't know.
Speaker 13 (28:01):
But then the thing that really got me was a
separate portal from the portal. So we go into one portal,
then we have to teleport to another portal, and then
finally to a third portal to finally once we portalize.
But if you need something from a year before typically
from taxes. You then have to de portal to another portal.
Sometimes technology bends you over, takes a two by four
(28:25):
and sticks it.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Rock You want to hear another technology story, And I
tell her, Honey, I'm sore.
Speaker 13 (28:30):
Why do you think I'm walking weird?
Speaker 18 (28:32):
That two by four didn't feel good. I went to
a home improvement store the other day.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Oh, welcome man, happy to do it? How happy and healthy?
And that's a different store.
Speaker 7 (28:43):
That's that's shuddering.
Speaker 18 (28:45):
Yeah, I saw they're shuddering a lot of locations. That's
not happy and healthy. That is just depressing and sad.
And I am looking for this new I need a
new faucet for the sink. And I find it on
the website and it says it it's seventy four dollars.
That's a good price. I find it on the aisle
r it's made of gold, and it tells you it's
(29:07):
on aisle five bend ten cool, perfect, go get it there.
It's one hundred and ten dollars.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
It's a damn good drink.
Speaker 18 (29:16):
And I'm like, well, that doesn't make much sense. So
I walk up to the customer service desk and I
mean I literally type in the UPC code off the
box and it pulls up exactly, so it's the same one.
I know it's the same one. I do it twice
to double check my work. And I go up to
the count and I said, man, I'm a little confused.
(29:37):
I said, on the website it says it's seventy four dollars.
Now in the aisle says it's one hundred and ten dollars.
She goes, let me take a look at that.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
Sure.
Speaker 18 (29:48):
She grabs a box, looks at my phone. She goes
other different products, and I said said, no, no, no,
I typed in the UPC code. She goes, no, she
looks at it. She goes, no, it's definitely a different product.
This one's different than the one you have on your phone.
And I said, okay, we'll tell me the difference. She's well,
I don't know what the difference is, but they're obviously different.
That was the answer. I mean, I can't tell you
(30:08):
why they're different, but they're different.
Speaker 19 (30:23):
Hey, it's Mike d And this week a movie Mike's
Movie Podcast, I shared what I think are the top
five final lines in film of all time. I did
my research, so I'm going to share a few picks
of mine with you here, but be sure to subscribe
to my podcast to hear this entire episode. Here what
took the top spots in all the honorable mentions. But
right now, here's a little bit of movie Mike's movie podcast.
(30:44):
So at number five from nineteen eighty five, Back to
the Future, Doc played by Christopher Lloyd, has this final
line in response to Marty.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
Hey, Doc, we've better back up.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
We don't have enough road to get up to eighty.
Speaker 19 (30:56):
Eight ROAs where we're going.
Speaker 15 (30:58):
We don't need roads.
Speaker 19 (31:05):
To have such an epic movie like Back to the Future,
you need a great ending, and Back to the Future's
final line completely nails it and sums up all the
adventure in this film. I believe Back to the Future
is a perfect film. I have a lot of movies
I believe are perfect films for me that I would
rate a five out of five. But maybe if I
(31:26):
had to make a list, there are just ten perfect
films of all time.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
Back to the.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Future is one of those movies.
Speaker 19 (31:33):
If aliens came down on this planet and had no
idea what a movie was, I would show them Back
to the Future because it has action, it has adventure.
It has sci fi, although if you are showing this
movie to an alien, they would be like, what is
this ancient technology? You stupid humans? And then it has romance,
It has some weirdness between guy and his mom. Yeah,
(31:55):
it gets into every category you can imagine. I feel
it is a perfect film and it embodies everything that
I love about movies. For the most part, when I
go back and think about this movie, this is always
the quote that sticks out to me. And while putting
together this list, I almost forgot that this was the
fact final scene in the movie.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
What a great quote. That is why back to the
future Rhodes, We're going.
Speaker 19 (32:20):
We don't need rhads is at number five at number
four from two thousand and two Spider Man, who was
played by Toby maguire. He is Peter Parker, he is
Spider Man, and this is the final line of dialogue
in that movie.
Speaker 20 (32:33):
Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never
forget these words. With great power comes great responsibility. This
is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider Man.
Speaker 19 (32:54):
There are so many reasons why that is such a
great final line. If you rewatch Spider Man from two
thousand and two. The movie starts with him saying, who
am I? Are you sure you want to know? And
he goes into this little monologue setting up the entire
story to come, and then it ends with that answering
that question, stating it again, who am I?
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I am?
Speaker 4 (33:15):
Spider Man?
Speaker 19 (33:16):
I love Out of every superhero, I think he has
the best hero journey and struggle of what it takes
to be a superhero, all that he sacrifices of wanting
to have love in his life, wanting to be with
MJ but then also knowing his responsibility to the city
of New York to be that friendly neighborhood Spider Man.
(33:38):
I think that is such a great struggle. And director
Sam Raimi did such a fantastic job with the storytelling
in this movie to bookend it like that, to open
asking that question and close it up by answering the
question and then cutting to some great Spider Man swinging footage.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
And then you also.
Speaker 19 (33:57):
Work in one of the most memorable superhero quotes of time,
one of the best mantras, with great power comes great responsibility,
which we heard earlier in the movie spoken to him
by his uncle Ben as he was passing away. So
to bring that quote into this it is so perfect.
It tells you exactly who Peter Parker and Spider Man
is and also is foreshadowing of what's to come in
(34:20):
two and how his story will be wrapped up in
spider Man three. So I think that is such a
great ending. And you think, with Spider Man being my
favorite character, that would be number one, but you'd probably
think that is where I would go, but not putting
that one at number four.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
At number three.
Speaker 19 (34:35):
From nineteen ninety it is Goodfellas Henry Hill played by
ray Leota. I just love it when movies and with
a really big, important monologue, and that is exactly what
happens in this movie. This is my favorite Martin Scorsese movie.
It's the movie that turned Rayle Oda into a superstar.
(34:56):
He played real life goodfella Henry Hill, and this you
really everything you need to know about this character, who
throughout the entire movie is doing everything in order not
to live a normal life. It is what he hates
the most in life. He doesn't want to wait in
line like everybody else. He wants the best treatment, he
(35:16):
wants to eat at the best restaurants, he wants to
have the money, drive the car, live in the fancy house.
And the worst thing you could do to a person
like that is put him into witness protection where he
has to be just a normal citizen. So I'll get
into more of why I love this final line, but
here it is from Goodfellas.
Speaker 12 (35:35):
Right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with
Marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
An average nobody.
Speaker 17 (35:44):
Get to live the rest of my life like a shnook.
Speaker 19 (35:46):
I love the touch that Scorsese put on the ending
of this movie when well, first it flashes back to
some things that happened in the movie. You have Joe
Peshi shooting a gun at the screen, but right is
Raliotic closes the door, you hear the sound of a
jail celle closing. And I think that's such a fine
(36:06):
little touch to add to this scene, because him going
back into his house in the suburbs is basically him
being in prison. Because at the time that this scene happens,
he rat it on everybody in exchange for not having
to go to prison, and even though he didn't go
into a real physical prison, his home has now become
(36:28):
that exact same thing, and like you said, he wanted
fancy spaghetti instead he got egg noodles in Ketchup. I
would always find myself saying that line. And this movie
also starts with one of the best opening lines of
all time, which is an episode for another day, but
it embodies everything I love about a crime movie. The rise,
Oh and then the fall when they fall so hard
(36:50):
and you see him just standing there in his robes,
so defeated. What a great line, What a great delivery
from Ray Liota rip from nineteen ninety eight, number three.
Speaker 4 (37:00):
I have a good fellas.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
Carl Line.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
She's a queen and talking with a song.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
She's getting really not afraid to fings episode, so just
let it flow.
Speaker 19 (37:23):
No one can do we quiet, Cary Line, It is
sounding Caroline.
Speaker 21 (37:31):
Hey, y'all, it's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
And here is a clip from this week's episode. You
are really wonderful at sharing your story because like you're
you have such a testimony for your life. But like
you were married and your wife died four weeks before
you went on American Idol, How did you must have
the courage to do that?
Speaker 22 (37:50):
Well, there was a few things because quite honestly, I
didn't want to go after that. I just when you
lose someone, you feel like you amputate a part of
your soul. And I don't know, you know, I know
that we've all went through losses.
Speaker 14 (38:03):
Their wife. I mean that's like, that's serious.
Speaker 22 (38:05):
And if you think about, like the scriptures talk about that,
you are one, right, so they're really the amputation felt
so real. I didn't want to do it. I did
want to do it because she's the one that got
me to want to do it. But then the try
was four.
Speaker 7 (38:18):
Weeks after her being so raw.
Speaker 9 (38:21):
Oh, it was absolutely and it was unexpected.
Speaker 21 (38:23):
Right, she went in for like her heart was beating
really fast and like she had heart issues, but like
nobody was expecting it.
Speaker 22 (38:29):
Hurt past her surgery had a ninety percent success rate,
and I remember saying goodbye to her.
Speaker 7 (38:36):
I went to work that day.
Speaker 14 (38:37):
You thought it was going to be so routine, well
not routine, but just like I knew.
Speaker 22 (38:41):
It was kind of a big deal because it's a
heart surgery and it's always a big deal. But I
didn't want to acknowledge that it was a big deal.
And plus the doctor gave me enough confidence. I had
my faith to stand on. You know, I think sometimes
when we have our faith to stand on, you know,
we can become oblivious to some situations. That's where I was.
I mean, I was twenty seven. I didn't want to
(39:01):
acknowledge that. So I went to work that day. I
worked at the cheesecake factory, of all places, and I
could barely.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
I think I was probably the worst server that day.
Speaker 22 (39:12):
Wasn't a good server anyways, you know, I just absent
minded a lot of my mind and she I got
the call and I that the surgery didn't go as well,
went to the hospital, never went back to work again,
stayed in the hospital. They put on an artificial heart.
It was like a two week process, and when we
prayed to all the tears dried up. I mean I
had no tears left in my body. And she passed
(39:34):
away unexpectedly. Going on the show for artificial heart put in.
So what they do is they if your heart stop,
if it stops working and it's about to lose it,
to put you on a transplant list. They'll put you
on an artificial heart, which is this huge machine. I
forgot what they call it, and it's they put these
they had these two tubes just in her chest, like
doing the work of her heart for her.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
I think.
Speaker 14 (39:58):
For her it only works in the hospital.
Speaker 22 (40:00):
You can't like live, could never live with it because
this is massive. I mean, this is back in two
thousand and eight, this massive machine, and it's basically pumping
blood for you. And we won on the artificial we
went on the transplant list. She never made it, and
I was absolutely devastated, and it was the last year
I could go on American automt So now I'm kind
of answering your question. I went on American out of
(40:21):
reluctantly because it's four weeks after her passing. Because if
had I not done it then, and I told her
I would do it, and she was excited for me
to do it, then I would have no chance afterwards.
Speaker 14 (40:31):
He had twenty seven was the cutoff.
Speaker 22 (40:32):
Twenty eight, and I was going to turn twenty eight
the next year, so August two thousand and eight, it
was actually August eight, two thousand and eight was my
first trial date. And eight means new beginnings if you
look it up, like number, like numerology in the Bible anyways,
and so I was like it kind of meant something
to me thinking and it was the eighth season of
American Idol. Like all these things, I just kind of,
(40:53):
you know, run with day twenty eight. All things work
together for are good. You know what I'm saying, Like
things work together. And so I went on the show,
took third place. But here's a good thing for me. Sorry,
I'm pointing my finger at you, like listen here right here.
I needed something bigger than me. Yes, yeah, I needed
a bigger vision because when we go through depression, when
(41:15):
we go through you know, a loss, when we walk
through unexpected situations, we're disappointed to a place that almost
like a root of bitterness is on the inside of us,
and it's kind of poisoning us because we're just so
bitter at how life turned out. I needed a bigger vision,
going to La going on a TV show, sharing my story,
the possibility of a music career, something I did music.
Speaker 14 (41:36):
I had hope.
Speaker 21 (41:37):
You had hope, and you had a place to put
your pain that could serve others absolutely and yourself, and honestly,
talking about stuff helps so much.
Speaker 22 (41:47):
The thing that I think, the more that we can
forget about ourselves and focus on something else is a
key to finding happiness, to finding purpose and a reason
to stay alive, and go on the show with this
mission of if I share my story, and of course
I was walking it out, maybe they'll give hope to someone.
Speaker 14 (42:06):
You were just as raw as you could be.
Speaker 22 (42:08):
I mean, one of the someone who met me at
my concert and said I had the gun out that day.
She said, my my fiance committed suicide months earlier and
I just couldn't live anymore. The TV's on in a
different room. She's in a different with the gun, getting
ready to commit suicide, and she hears a man crying
on a TV.
Speaker 7 (42:28):
That that sparked her. It just kind of.
Speaker 22 (42:33):
It was that they were telling my story and it
asked me questions about it, and she walked out. It's
just piqued her curiosity for the moment, and she saw
me share my story and she said from that point,
she said, if he can make it, I can make it.
I mean, this is one of many. So forgetting about ourselves.
(42:55):
You know, what's the one thing in our culture. I
think that maybe is putting us in a deeper pit.
I know we are thinking about ourselves too much.
Speaker 21 (43:02):
And our feelings and how we feel about stuff and
how it affects us.
Speaker 7 (43:05):
The ego and you're you're artist, right you saying country music?
Speaker 14 (43:10):
Yeah, I've been an artist sorts for.
Speaker 22 (43:12):
Yes, we are the top offenders because what do we
do think about?
Speaker 21 (43:17):
You are your brand, You are your what you're putting
into the world is you.
Speaker 7 (43:20):
And your art's and entertainment. This is where you are,
This is where I am.
Speaker 22 (43:25):
We constantly have to be on We constantly have to
be this thing because we want to keep people's interests.
Because the moment we lose people's interests is the moment
that part of our identity goes.
Speaker 7 (43:35):
And it's so and it's.
Speaker 14 (43:37):
Like, do you have value anymore? Or do you have
earth anymore? Who am I?
Speaker 7 (43:40):
And so we think about ourselves more.
Speaker 14 (43:43):
And then you go into the whole why don't people
like me? What do I need to do? What do
I need to change? How do I need to like
sing a dance to perform for you? So you love Megan?
Speaker 7 (43:51):
Why do you think I dance? And I'm no good
at it? I'm no good at it?
Speaker 1 (44:05):
Hey, thanks for listening.
