Have you ever considered how a bidet could upgrade your hygiene routine? Or perhaps you've pondered about life beyond the perception that high school is the peak of life's experiences. This episode of County Line is where we tackle these intriguing topics, starting off with a warm appreciation for our dedicated listeners, including Madeleine Varner - your support means everything to us!
We also examine the concept of high school football as a microcosm of life. The often-heard adage that "high school is the best time of your life" can be misleading and potentially damaging. We urge listeners to seize life's opportunities, not fall into the trap of monotony, and most importantly, never stop exploring. This podcast episode is more than just a casual chat - it's a space for challenging conventional wisdom and sparking curiosity.
And when it comes to careers, we're firm believers in pursuing passions and dreams. Life's too short to spend on paths devoid of passion. We address the struggle of working away from home, the impact it has on family time, and the necessity of a fulfilling career. So, sit back and join us for this enlightening session of the County Line, where we challenge norms, address personal hygiene, and discuss the true essence of life beyond high school football. Don't miss out!

Constructive criticism, wewelcome it.
We welcome it.
Y'all send it our way, send itto any of our social media pages
, then the website, county line,podcast, calm, and you can find
our email on there.
We got to even.
We even got a little chat boton there chat bot, chat bot,
(10:03):
chat, gbt.
What up those chatbots?
Go my fucking nerves.
But the one at the county line,I help your ass out, real talk.
So now that we've got thehousekeeping out of the way and
(10:23):
Everyone has seemingly foundtheir pew of choice, we will get
right into it.
Get yourself a bidet.
You need to wash your ass.
You need to wash your ass.
I have a bidet and I've had abidet for about, I Guess, a year
(10:50):
, I guess a little over a year,almost two years, and I can't
believe that I went so longwithout having a bidet.
I've quickly learned thatbidets appear to be a cultural
item, in that certain culturesUtilize a bidet and understand
(11:11):
it to be a norm.
Other cultures, like the onethat I'm from, have no idea what
a fucking bidet is, and ifsomeone In the deep South Finds
out that you have a bidet, theymay look at you as being
(11:33):
promiscuous, and that justbaffles my mind.
The more I think about it andthat just baffles my mind, the
more I think of, the more I'veused a bidet and Thought about
it.
I'm like, especially if youshit in the morning, if you shit
(11:59):
in the morning Often and thenyou don't wash your ass until
the next time you take a shower,which generally starts with a
shower the next time you take ashower which, generally speaking
, for most people is in theevening, before you get ready
for bed, think about how nastyyour ass gets from that shit in
(12:23):
the morning to the time you goto bed.
That's pretty disgusting if youreally think about it.
And a bidet is not Like takinga shower, nor, in my opinion,
should it be viewed that way.
(12:43):
It should not be viewed asbeing as effective as taking a
shower.
However, it does give me thefeeling of somewhat of a clean
start, whereas Before a bidet Iwould do everything I could to
(13:04):
rid myself of as much debris aspossible, but you know just as
well as I do you can't geteverything.
You can't get everything with adry piece of paper towel, but
if you bring a bidet into thesituation For one, you use less
(13:27):
toilet paper Because you'vealready got one method of
cleanliness applied once youbring the toilet paper into the
situation, depending on yourprocedure.
I haven't discussed thedifferent procedures associated
(13:49):
with bidet use with very manypeople, but it's something that
has made my life better Having abidet, I feel cleaner more
often and the fact that peopleview it as being promiscuous
(14:11):
Because I'm squirting water onmy asshole after I take a shit
so I won't be nasty.
Okay, call me promiscuous.
If that's what's promiscuous toyou, then we have different
definitions of promiscuous.
To insinuate that I'm somesexual freak Not saying I'm not,
(14:33):
but to gather that off of theuse of a bidet, it's pretty
unfair.
I'm just trying to be as clearas possible.
People tend to have some verysubpar hygiene, sometimes Like
(14:54):
people that are functioning orseemingly functioning adults
will have fucking thunder breathand it just makes me wonder
like do they lack self-awareness?
Can they not smell their ownbreath?
Are they too naive to thinkthat their breath is not a good
(15:16):
thing.
I know when my breath stinks, Iknow when I have the thunder
breath and I will not gobreathing fire on people.
(15:38):
I will intentionally stay awayfrom people if I don't have
means to improve the smell of mybreath, right then and there.
I will intentionally stay awayfrom people if I don't have
means to improve the smell of mybreath, right then and there.
But I am self-aware andself-aware enough to know and
(16:05):
recognize when I have shittybreath and I don't go near
people.
Body odor in the form ofmustiness Come on.
(16:26):
If anybody's musty, obviouslymusty and it's registering with
everyone's ol' factory system,it should only be a boy going
through puberty.
I can excuse that to a certainextent and the reason I say that
(16:50):
is because they have the mostafter work, after being a boy,
obviously, and addressing tryingto address my stinky pubescent
armpits, and then also being infootball locker rooms.
(17:14):
It's very evident that boysgoing through, or just recently
who have gone through, pubertyhave the stinkiest fucking
armpits.
So I can look past that to acertain extent and they're
learning how to take care ofthemselves.
They're kids, right.
(17:35):
Some adults too many neverlearned how to apply deodorant
or find deodorant that works,that mean, as an adult, that's
just inexcusable.
To have bad personal hygiene,terrible.
(18:04):
But if you've never tried abidet, don't look down on it.
Don't judge me, don't judgebidet users.
Try one for yourself.
But I'm gonna warn you, be easy, don't go full blast when you
(18:27):
first the first time you sitdown with your bidet.
Don't go full blast.
One has two options.
Well, I guess two differentaiming points.
One, I guess, is for.
(18:48):
I guess is for.
The two aiming points are forwomen.
The two different aiming points.
I don't see why a man wouldneed two different aiming points
.
But I'm putting you on noticethat the pressure, the water
(19:10):
pressure, from my bidet isratcheted up as it goes through
the bidet.
I don't have the best waterpressure in the world in my
house, so I made the assumptionthat I was going to need to turn
the bidet on full blast thefirst time I sat on top of it.
(19:32):
Mistake, mistake tore myasshole up like a pressure
washer.
So I'd say that to just put youon notice light stream, a light
(19:56):
stream.
You don't need a heavy streamNow.
Sometimes you'll need a heavierstream than others, depending
upon the nature of your shit,right, I mean, if you just ate
tomato soup and Mexican the pasttwo days, it's going to be a
(20:22):
little different.
It's going to be a littledifferent than if you just ate a
bunch of peanuts.
Change my drift.
I'll put you on a comedian thatalso has this opinion and I will
(20:49):
give credit to Mo Amor thecomedian for nudging me towards
using a debate bidet.
I had already begun to ponderthe idea of using a bidet prior
to seeing Mo Amor's take on it,and if you just look it up
(21:09):
online, type in Mo Amor bidet,it'll come up.
But I mean, he makes a verycompelling case for the use of
bidet and that was the lastlittle bit of encouragement I
needed to go make that happen.
(21:29):
I mean, and it's a staple of myhouse, I will say I use the
bidet more often when I'm in arelationship.
That's been my experiencebecause the sexual encounters
are more frequent while in arelationship, for me at least,
(21:51):
and I like to treat others theway I would want to be treated.
So if I knew coming up that Iwas going to have a sexual
encounter and I just took twoshits and went to the gym and
(22:14):
sweated and ran and just got inswamp ass got nasty, I would.
I'm going to wash myself.
I would want somebody else towash themselves if they've been
sweating.
Even if they haven't beensweating, I mean you go work all
(22:36):
day or do whatever all day andthen you're going to go have sex
with somebody that night.
You need to wash your crotch,man or woman.
Wash it, good, wash your ass.
I mean that's just common senseand common courtesy.
(22:56):
I'll be giving nobody no nastycrotch.
Nobody want to smell on that.
So, but they was just a.
It was another step in my, mypersonal hygiene journey and I
(23:20):
just really, really wanted totestify and get my story out
there and just let y'all knowhow much the bidet has changed
my life.
Can I get an amen?
Can I get a witness on thebidet?
Not to mention, I mean a rushof cool water.
(23:47):
I mean that's a treat.
It's a treat.
It makes the, it makes the shitmore interesting.
Let's move on.
Go get yourself a bidet, gowatch that.
Go watch that Moe Amor bit too,because that shit is funny.
(24:08):
He makes a very compelling casefor a bidet and if you, if you
tell so, if you use a bidet andpeople tell you that you're
crazy for using a bidet or thatyou're a freak or whatever.
First of all, ask them ifthey've ever used one, and if
(24:30):
they haven't, then they.
Then there's no way they shouldhave an opinion because they've
never tried it and thensecondly, just say fuck them.
I mean, you're taking care ofyour ass.
The other day I was having aconversation with one of my
(24:52):
friends childhood friends, whowe've continued our friendship
into adulthood and very goodconversation.
We were talking about footballand high school football and
there are, he knows, a kid thatis currently in high school
playing football, and he wascomplaining that the child is
(25:15):
not giving enough effort, notdoesn't have enough sense of
urgency as he should, doesn'thave as much of that Gumpion as
he should.
Appreciative the child's, notappreciating in this, this
gentleman's mind, what a greatpart of that child's life this
(25:40):
is in high school football,which it is it is.
It's a very, very great timefor any kid.
You know, our childhoods areultimately a major contributing
factor in determining how we,how we ultimately develop as
(26:02):
adults.
So we were talking about whatgoes into kids having intrinsic
motivation to give effort andhow a coach can emit that effort
from kids through the way ofmotivation, reward, so forth and
(26:26):
so on, and as this, as myfriend was describing the
conversation he was having withthe kid, he was trying to convey
to the child just how much thechild's going to miss high
school football, specificallywhen it's over, which is true,
(26:49):
many boys don't realize howgreat high school football is
until it's over.
I would say most, most take itfor granted, right?
No-transcript?
It's very difficult to in themoment, appreciate something
(27:10):
great.
Sometimes we don't even knowhow great it is, especially as
kids.
So I understand where this,where my friend is coming from,
when he's telling his kid thathigh school football years are
going to be the best of his life.
(27:31):
I don't agree with that though.
I understand that it's animportant phase of a child's
life, but I don't believe thatwe should convey to children and
send the message that Highschool is going to be the best
(27:54):
that life ever is, because Ithink that sends a bad message
as it pertains To theexpectations the kids believe we
have for them.
I think it can be interpreted bythe kids as In a couple of
(28:19):
different ways OK, well, they'retelling me, if I'm, if I'm the
kid, and adults are telling meyou better enjoy this because
this is the best your life isever going to be.
It can be taken one of two ways.
Number one the child can thinkwell, they think I'm not worthy
(28:41):
or capable enough To dosomething that could be more
enjoyable than high schoolfootball with my life.
Another question the kid couldask is what do they think?
I'm never going to go anywhere?
Because the sad truth is Is thatmost kids, most men, that
(29:09):
played high school football in asmall town In Mississippi or
throughout the South, considerHigh school football to be the
best times of their life.
The primary reason being isbecause they hate what they end
up doing with their life.
Most of the time they end upstaying in that small town that
(29:36):
they grew up in and working anine to five, doing whatever
they got to do to To make money,and Playing goes out the window
.
Now it doesn't have to, and nota majority of those men don't
(30:01):
have to make the decision toStay or work a job.
That's unenjoyable, but I thinkus telling kids that the high
school football is going to bethe best part of their life Is
Also saying that's the bestthing that we have to offer here
(30:21):
, and I do think I want toclarify, like, I think, most
adults who say, that they meanit as in Don't take this for
granted, because this is a Don'ttake this for granted Because
(30:47):
this only happens once.
You're only 15, 16, 17, 18.
Playing a game Once.
So enjoy it, embrace it, smellthe flowers while you're here,
while they're blooming.
(31:08):
But I think it gets reinforcedwhen kids get out into these
desolate communities and they'relike man, I didn't have to
worry about shit, I can justplay ball.
And I didn't have to worryabout going to work this.
Do do ass, job up here atMcDonald's or the salt mill,
what have you?
Yeah, they were right, highschool football was the best
(31:32):
part of my life, the best partof my life.
And then a lot of people justgive up.
They they say to themselvesyeah, that was the best part of
my life, this is the beginningof the end and I'm just going to
settle.
And this is what life is.
I'm living this small town andwork this job that I hate for
the rest of my life andConceived to the fact that high
(31:57):
school was my best, the besttime of my life.
I think that's a very depressingscenario.
I also think it's a verydepressing way to think.
I think it's a very depressingway to think, because If people
(32:20):
think that high school orchildhood in general was the
best time of their life, thenwhat is that?
And say they're 25.
I mean, think about howdepressing that is to think
about the rest of your life,thinking that that's the best
time.
The best time, the best yearsare in your rear view mirror.
(32:41):
That's supposed to be like how,like an 80 year old feels or
some shit.
Like somebody that can't evendo shit anymore.
They can't even get out of thehouse, can't communicate with
people, has a bunch of healthailments.
That shouldn't be the opinionof a 25 or 30 year old.
(33:02):
I mean a 25 and 30 year old, inmy opinion, is still a kid.
Yes, adult responsibilities arethere.
Maturity needs to be there, butin the context of the, maturity
needs to be there.
But in the grand scheme ofthings, with the average
(33:25):
lifespan being 77 or whatever itis, I mean 30 is you still got
your health?
You still got A lot of things?
(33:46):
I mean you still got the but alot of the youth Ahead of you If
you take care of yourself, ifyou don't get to 35 and your fat
as hell and you've just packedit in and you giving up on your
physical appearance and health.
(34:09):
Mainly, there's a gentleman bythe name of Gary V.
He's an online personality.
I couldn't tell you exactlywhat he does, but if you look
(34:30):
him up you'll find him, and Iremember seeing a clip of him in
my early 20s of him saying thatexact thing like dude, if
you're 40, you are still young,you still have so much life
ahead of you, and if you're 30,obviously you're even younger.
(34:59):
But what he?
One of the things that he saidthat really resonated with me
and I took it to heart Was thatif you don't know what you want
to do with your life, try shit,try shit.
That looks different foreverybody.
(35:22):
Different obstacles anddifferent problems have to be
Faced depending on one situation, but I've tried shit and I'm
proud of that and I think thatthat's.
I think that's important andprovides an advantage to someone
(35:48):
who's had a lot of differentexperiences.
Now, I wouldn't count ongetting rich trying shit, but
you sharpen different tools, youexpose yourself to different
situations and you find out howyou react to certain scenarios,
dealing with different types ofpeople, as opposed to just being
(36:10):
on one track the entire timeand Trying things is chaotic,
but I do encourage it.
And you know, living bysociety's timelines, that is
(36:31):
good for some people.
Some people Are tailor made forGraduating high school, four
years of college, six years ofcollege, whatever they know what
they're going to study, they gostudy it, they kick ass at it
and then they leave college andthey go straight into that
Career and they live happilyever after.
(36:52):
That is great For a lot ofpeople.
But there are also a lot ofpeople who have signed up to
that conventional route and aremiserable.
And they don't have to be.
They can go try shit, but ittakes stepping outside of one's
(37:21):
comfort zone, being open minded,willing to fail, being open
minded and recognizing the factthat you may not always have the
secure paycheck of the job thatyou've had in that one track.
(37:44):
But like the way I look at it,man, is that life is too short
to spend the majority of ourtime miserable, the majority of
our time not doing what we wantto do or pursuing what we want
(38:06):
to pursue.
Forever is a long-ass time.
Deciding on a spouse and acareer should not be taken
lightly, because those are twothings.
(38:26):
That the way our society is setup.
It's great if you nail that,but it can be equally as
terrible if you don't.
If you decide on somethingprematurely, whether it be a
(38:47):
spouse or a job, and if you'rewith a spouse or a job that you
fucking hate, that makes yourlife miserable leave Because
it's not worth it.
It's not worth spending thosedays miserable Because you never
(39:09):
get those days back.
You never get that time back.
A similar situation like withmen who have children and they
work on the road.
Look, some people got to dowhat they got to do and I
understand that and I've neverhad kids and I've never been in
(39:31):
a situation where I've had tomake a decision such as working
away from them to make moremoney or being home and making
significantly less.
I don't know what that's likepersonally, but you can always
go make that money that youcould, that you would sacrifice
(39:56):
for being at home with your kidswhile they're growing up.
But flip it over.
Look at the flip side.
You can't ever get that timewith those kids back.
If you sacrifice that time, youcan't get that time back.
(40:16):
You can get the money.
You can go get the money backafter they're growing and going.
You can go make the money thatyou would have made working on
the road.
But life is too fucking short tobe spending our time doing
something that's not fulfillingand that we're not passionate
(40:43):
about.
Now look, there arecircumstances and we put
ourselves a lot of us put putourselves in situations where we
can't chase our dreams becausewe've made decisions to prevent
us from doing that or made itimmensely more difficult to
(41:05):
chase those dreams.
Getting married early is one ofthose things that can really
derail one's efforts, and andI'm not talking about being a
fucking superstar, I'm justtalking about doing this,
exploring that.
I'm talking about trying shitLike if you get married at 21,
(41:32):
then you have kids at 22, 23, 24, whatever.
It ain't about you no more, andit shouldn't be.
But it's not a sin to wait tillyou're 35 to get married so
that you can go explore and thatyou can go whatever.
(41:53):
Go go have 10 different jobs,like my dumb ass, but I wouldn't
trade that for the world as itstands right now.
I may get to be 55 and not havea pension or enough of my
retirement to be able to seeretirement in the windshield.
I don't think that's going tobe the case, because I think
(42:17):
I'll ultimately make the mostmoney possible, getting in where
I fit in from a work standpoint.
Not everybody comes out of thewomb knowing what the fuck they
want to do.
Not everybody comes out of highschool knowing what the fuck
they want to do.
Not everybody comes out ofcollege knowing what the fuck
(42:39):
they want to do.
Some people have to try shitand then it takes time to.
You know, I'm not talking abouttrying something for three
weeks, I'm talking about tryingit for a year.
Try it for a year, a year in.
You should know.
Yeah, this is kind of what Iwant to do, this is what I want
(43:01):
to do, and you may have to do itfor two years because of
circumstances, but at least youknow and the things that you've
learned in those differentexperiences you can take on with
you further into otherendeavors.
Like teaching has reinforcedsales, sales, reinforce teaching
, sales and teaching translatedinto project management.
(43:27):
The space that I'm currently inCoaching transferred into sales
, project management, leadershipacross the board and all
different and all of those roles.
There was leadership requiredin different capacities.
(43:50):
High school is not the besttime of our life.
The best time of our lifeshould be right now the moment
we're in, as difficult as thatmay be, but being mindful and
(44:12):
being present, being where ourfeet are and embracing that
moment should be the best timeof our life, and then the rest
take care of itself.
You'll make good memories thatway, okay so Southern Gangsta
Wrap.
(44:35):
So I want to do an analysis onBoosie Badass as a CEO In
comparison with Gucci Mane.
Alright, so Gucci Mane has gotthe new 1017 record label and
he's got Puscii, fuziano, cootie, big Fizzle, big Walt Doll,
(45:00):
among five or six others thatare signed to the new 1017.
Gucci said push ice to go toprison and big scar past.
And then I think he's got oneor two others Don't quote me on
that that have or that have beenin prison or are spending
(45:25):
extended Currently in prisonlong term.
Gucci main has done a pretty,he's done a really good job
identifying talent.
I love cootie and big fizzleand big walk dog.
Big walk dogs from Tupwiler,mississippi and cootie and big
(45:49):
fizzle are from Arkansas andupon signing these guys it was
obvious that push ice he was thestar, which he's now in prison.
Shut up Mike.
Push ice, he was the star.
Push ice, he goes to jail nowwalk dog and cootie and big
(46:14):
fizzle are rising to the top.
Hot boy West is another new1017 signee.
So Gucci main is hitting thetalent.
He finds good talent,identifies it, brings it on
board and his artists are havingsuccess.
(46:36):
Now boozy, on the other hand,with bad ass music syndicate, he
is also a CEO quote unquote CEOand he has artists under bad
ass music syndicate.
I'm not so sure boozy is asgood of a talent identifier as
(47:04):
Gucci.
Now I will say bad ass musicsyndicate.
I tried to find who theirartists are and I couldn't find
in one place.
Like 1017 has got a website, Icouldn't find one for bad ass
music syndicate.
Now, it was about a brief 10minute search, but like you know
, in today's search engineoptimization world, you would
(47:35):
think that bad ass musicsyndicate would have a website
and then it would be easilyidentifiable.
Nevertheless, I couldn't findwho who boozy has signed to his
label.
Now boozy did identify and signa successful artist from Mobile
, alabama, by the name of youngblue.
Young blue has blown up.
(47:56):
Young blue is very popular.
He's very good, and now boozyis in a war with young blue,
guysy and boozy's brother toquarry TQ.
So boozy's most recent albumwas about a lot of it was about
(48:21):
is titled going through somethings.
Go listen to ungrateful.
Ungrateful tells you I thinkit's the first track on the
album he blasts TQ, young blueand guysy, alleging that they
went behind boozy's back andstole blue, and now boozy wants
(48:42):
them to pay him and he's sayingfuck you to his brother and a
young blue and a guy's.
Boozy ain't going for that shit.
But I mean, boozy makes a lotof references.
He has a lot of like online.
He's saying that they forgedhis signature forged his
signature on a contract releasethat allowed blue out of the
(49:07):
contract, apparently.
But he's posted all this shiton his Instagram and I mean
basically disowning his brother,accusing his mother of loving
TQ more than she loves boozy.
And all this is in the music.
I mean, y'all know how it iswith boozy.
(49:28):
It is what it is, it's all outthere.
But if you go listen to hismost recent album, going through
some things, he outlines whathe's going through in the way of
contract disputes with anartist that he signed to badass
music syndicate.
I think Gucci main as it standsright now, just from a success
(49:54):
stamp on artist successstandpoint, I do believe that he
is ahead of boozy when it comesto being a former rapper turned
CEO, if you will, of a recordlabel like Gucci.
It's amazing to me how Guccihas transformed himself, like
(50:19):
before he went into the prisonand then to now.
It's like a totally differentdude.
He was actually rehabilitated,apparently.
Shout out to that prison.
I don't know if boozy wasrehabilitated or not.
(50:39):
I'm not so sure.
I mean where he finds himselfin the case, the gun case in
California.
Who knows what's going tohappen there?
Who has any idea what's goingto happen there?
I think they're going to try tonail them to the wall.
It'll be interesting to see,though.
Very interesting to see.
(51:07):
So we're going to start doing aclosing hymn on the solo
episodes, basically just a songthat I've listened to, that's
been in my playlist, that Ireally enjoy.
It'll likely be some random assoff the wall song.
It could be rap, it could becountry, it could be whatever,
(51:28):
whatever genre, it could be from2023 or 1923.
But today's closing hymn forthe county line congregation is
entitled Super High by Rick Rossfeaturing Neo.
It's Maybach music.
(51:51):
So I was listening to Rick Rossspeak the other day about his
Maybach music tag.
So at the beginning of ifyou're not familiar, at the
beginning of pretty much everyRick Ross song, there is a
female voice saying Maybachmusic and that's a tag.
(52:13):
I don't know if it's for his, Iguess it's just his songs but
he utilize that phrase as abranding tool to brand his music
, in my opinion, as an upperechelon street music, because he
does use.
He does use more.
(52:37):
He's not all trap music.
You know he has a lot of hornsin his beats.
Might even be in Super High.
I don't know, you'll have tolisten, but Rick Ross is another
one that's gone into semi CEOmode.
(52:59):
But I think Rick Ross has got ashit ton of money.
I think he has been smart withthe money he's made in rapping.
He's originally fromMississippi, by the way, and
Clarksdale, I believe.
If I'm not mistaken, rick Rosshas something to do with
Wingstop.
He's an investor in that tosome extent.
(53:22):
But go check out Super High byRick Ross and Neo.
Let the top down.
If you got a sunroof, let thesunroof down.
Let the windows down and crankRicky Rose, super High.
You're welcome.

I welcome your opinion, justdon't put me in the box.
And I wanna change the worldand make it better than it was.
Feed a hungry child and make awoman feel love.

Lois Lane on my mind.
Will she ever show up?
I'm staying on my grind hoping Ican run it up, so I can give
(00:47):
back and lift my people up, buton the other hand, I don't
really give a fuck.
If my dreams crash and burn, atleast I pony it up.
I play the hand that I'mbelting.
Keep my head to the sky.
I won't waste my time askingGod why.
I ain't gotta say shit.
You can see it in my eyes.
I'm dedicated to the real baby.
This ain't no disguise.
I'm a fool with these rhymes.
I ain't telling no lies.
I got my own style.

I'm very versatile.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
Everyone knows that I pass around.
Surely that don't mean that youcan't hold a time.
You see, I'm always out of town.
But I don't think that don'tmean that we can't figure it out
.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I have a real tendency to say what's on my
mind.
I can't shut the fuck up whenit's all on the line.
A lot of people think they knowme, think I misunderstood.
I think they hate me in thecountry but they love me in the
hood.
Can't help how I was raised.
But my mama did good, told mehow to love and cook like a
mother should.
Daddy told me how to work andhow to be a man.
Got some good folks.
Y'all some of y'all can'tunderstand, and I got some day
(02:06):
ones and they always owe me down.
Thank the man up above.
He probably wears a crown.
It's hard to stay humble.
Keep my feet on the ground.
These thoughts in my head, man.
They make it too much soundShit loud as fuck.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I'm always out of town, but I don't think that
don't mean that we can't figureit out, babe.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
See, I wanna be rich but I feel like I'm poor.
And would you call me greedy ifI said I want more?
You can lead a horse to water,but you can't make him drink.
You can teach a child to read,but shouldn't tell him how to
think.
Came up without a dad.
Now he's dressed in all pink.
That shit is so sad.
Just describe it what I see.
And people get mad cause I'mjust being lead.
But one thing's for sure yougon' get what you see.
Speaker 3 (03:16):

When I talk to him, he knowsall about the podcast and that
goes such a long way Becausethere are so many more things
that a person could do withtheir time.
It just shows when someonetakes the time to listen to
something or consume somethingthat you work on, it means a lot

.
It means a lot and Revan hasbeen there since the jump Some
three plus years ago and hascontinued to hang on.

(10:03):
chat, gbt.
What up those chatbots?
Go my fucking nerves.
But the one at the county line,I help your ass out, real talk.
So now that we've got thehousekeeping out of the way and
(10:23):
Everyone has seemingly foundtheir pew of choice, we will get
right into it.
Get yourself a bidet.
You need to wash your ass.
You need to wash your ass.
I have a bidet and I've had abidet for about, I Guess, a year
(10:50):
, I guess a little over a year,almost two years, and I can't
believe that I went so longwithout having a bidet.
I've quickly learned thatbidets appear to be a cultural
item, in that certain culturesUtilize a bidet and understand
(11:11):
it to be a norm.
Other cultures, like the onethat I'm from, have no idea what
a fucking bidet is, and ifsomeone In the deep South Finds
out that you have a bidet, theymay look at you as being
(11:33):
promiscuous, and that justbaffles my mind.
The more I think about it andthat just baffles my mind, the
more I think of, the more I'veused a bidet and Thought about
it.
I'm like, especially if youshit in the morning, if you shit
(11:59):
in the morning Often and thenyou don't wash your ass until
the next time you take a shower,which generally starts with a
shower the next time you take ashower which, generally speaking
, for most people is in theevening, before you get ready
for bed, think about how nastyyour ass gets from that shit in
(12:23):
the morning to the time you goto bed.
That's pretty disgusting if youreally think about it.
And a bidet is not Like takinga shower, nor, in my opinion,
should it be viewed that way.
(12:43):
It should not be viewed asbeing as effective as taking a
shower.
However, it does give me thefeeling of somewhat of a clean
start, whereas Before a bidet Iwould do everything I could to
(13:04):
rid myself of as much debris aspossible, but you know just as
well as I do you can't geteverything.
You can't get everything with adry piece of paper towel, but
if you bring a bidet into thesituation For one, you use less
(13:27):
toilet paper Because you'vealready got one method of
cleanliness applied once youbring the toilet paper into the
situation, depending on yourprocedure.
I haven't discussed thedifferent procedures associated
(13:49):
with bidet use with very manypeople, but it's something that
has made my life better Having abidet, I feel cleaner more
often and the fact that peopleview it as being promiscuous
(14:11):
Because I'm squirting water onmy asshole after I take a shit
so I won't be nasty.
Okay, call me promiscuous.
If that's what's promiscuous toyou, then we have different
definitions of promiscuous.
To insinuate that I'm somesexual freak Not saying I'm not,
(14:33):
but to gather that off of theuse of a bidet, it's pretty
unfair.
I'm just trying to be as clearas possible.
People tend to have some verysubpar hygiene, sometimes Like
(14:54):
people that are functioning orseemingly functioning adults
will have fucking thunder breathand it just makes me wonder
like do they lack self-awareness?
Can they not smell their ownbreath?
Are they too naive to thinkthat their breath is not a good
(15:16):
thing.
I know when my breath stinks, Iknow when I have the thunder
breath and I will not gobreathing fire on people.
(15:38):
I will intentionally stay awayfrom people if I don't have
means to improve the smell of mybreath, right then and there.
I will intentionally stay awayfrom people if I don't have
means to improve the smell of mybreath, right then and there.
But I am self-aware andself-aware enough to know and
(16:05):
recognize when I have shittybreath and I don't go near
people.
Body odor in the form ofmustiness Come on.
(16:26):
If anybody's musty, obviouslymusty and it's registering with
everyone's ol' factory system,it should only be a boy going
through puberty.
I can excuse that to a certainextent and the reason I say that
(16:50):
is because they have the mostafter work, after being a boy,
obviously, and addressing tryingto address my stinky pubescent
armpits, and then also being infootball locker rooms.
(17:14):
It's very evident that boysgoing through, or just recently
who have gone through, pubertyhave the stinkiest fucking
armpits.
So I can look past that to acertain extent and they're
learning how to take care ofthemselves.
They're kids, right.
(17:35):
Some adults too many neverlearned how to apply deodorant
or find deodorant that works,that mean, as an adult, that's
just inexcusable.
To have bad personal hygiene,terrible.
(18:04):
But if you've never tried abidet, don't look down on it.
Don't judge me, don't judgebidet users.
Try one for yourself.
But I'm gonna warn you, be easy, don't go full blast when you
(18:27):
first the first time you sitdown with your bidet.
Don't go full blast.
One has two options.
Well, I guess two differentaiming points.
One, I guess, is for.
(18:48):
I guess is for.
The two aiming points are forwomen.
The two different aiming points.
I don't see why a man wouldneed two different aiming points
.
But I'm putting you on noticethat the pressure, the water
(19:10):
pressure, from my bidet isratcheted up as it goes through
the bidet.
I don't have the best waterpressure in the world in my
house, so I made the assumptionthat I was going to need to turn
the bidet on full blast thefirst time I sat on top of it.
(19:32):
Mistake, mistake tore myasshole up like a pressure
washer.
So I'd say that to just put youon notice light stream, a light
(19:56):
stream.
You don't need a heavy streamNow.
Sometimes you'll need a heavierstream than others, depending
upon the nature of your shit,right, I mean, if you just ate
tomato soup and Mexican the pasttwo days, it's going to be a
(20:22):
little different.
It's going to be a littledifferent than if you just ate a
bunch of peanuts.
Change my drift.
I'll put you on a comedian thatalso has this opinion and I will
(20:49):
give credit to Mo Amor thecomedian for nudging me towards
using a debate bidet.
I had already begun to ponderthe idea of using a bidet prior
to seeing Mo Amor's take on it,and if you just look it up
(21:09):
online, type in Mo Amor bidet,it'll come up.
But I mean, he makes a verycompelling case for the use of
bidet and that was the lastlittle bit of encouragement I
needed to go make that happen.
(21:29):
I mean, and it's a staple of myhouse, I will say I use the
bidet more often when I'm in arelationship.
That's been my experiencebecause the sexual encounters
are more frequent while in arelationship, for me at least,
(21:51):
and I like to treat others theway I would want to be treated.
So if I knew coming up that Iwas going to have a sexual
encounter and I just took twoshits and went to the gym and
(22:14):
sweated and ran and just got inswamp ass got nasty, I would.
I'm going to wash myself.
I would want somebody else towash themselves if they've been
sweating.
Even if they haven't beensweating, I mean you go work all
(22:36):
day or do whatever all day andthen you're going to go have sex
with somebody that night.
You need to wash your crotch,man or woman.
Wash it, good, wash your ass.
I mean that's just common senseand common courtesy.
(22:56):
I'll be giving nobody no nastycrotch.
Nobody want to smell on that.
So, but they was just a.
It was another step in my, mypersonal hygiene journey and I
(23:20):
just really, really wanted totestify and get my story out
there and just let y'all knowhow much the bidet has changed
my life.
Can I get an amen?
Can I get a witness on thebidet?
Not to mention, I mean a rushof cool water.
(23:47):
I mean that's a treat.
It's a treat.
It makes the, it makes the shitmore interesting.
Let's move on.
Go get yourself a bidet, gowatch that.
Go watch that Moe Amor bit too,because that shit is funny.
(24:08):
He makes a very compelling casefor a bidet and if you, if you
tell so, if you use a bidet andpeople tell you that you're
crazy for using a bidet or thatyou're a freak or whatever.
First of all, ask them ifthey've ever used one, and if
(24:30):
they haven't, then they.
Then there's no way they shouldhave an opinion because they've
never tried it and thensecondly, just say fuck them.
I mean, you're taking care ofyour ass.
The other day I was having aconversation with one of my
(24:52):
friends childhood friends, whowe've continued our friendship
into adulthood and very goodconversation.
We were talking about footballand high school football and
there are, he knows, a kid thatis currently in high school
playing football, and he wascomplaining that the child is
(25:15):
not giving enough effort, notdoesn't have enough sense of
urgency as he should, doesn'thave as much of that Gumpion as
he should.
Appreciative the child's, notappreciating in this, this
gentleman's mind, what a greatpart of that child's life this
(25:40):
is in high school football,which it is it is.
It's a very, very great timefor any kid.
You know, our childhoods areultimately a major contributing
factor in determining how we,how we ultimately develop as
(26:02):
adults.
So we were talking about whatgoes into kids having intrinsic
motivation to give effort andhow a coach can emit that effort
from kids through the way ofmotivation, reward, so forth and
(26:26):
so on, and as this, as myfriend was describing the
conversation he was having withthe kid, he was trying to convey
to the child just how much thechild's going to miss high
school football, specificallywhen it's over, which is true,
(26:49):
many boys don't realize howgreat high school football is
until it's over.
I would say most, most take itfor granted, right?
No-transcript?
It's very difficult to in themoment, appreciate something
(27:10):
great.
Sometimes we don't even knowhow great it is, especially as
kids.
So I understand where this,where my friend is coming from,
when he's telling his kid thathigh school football years are
going to be the best of his life.
(27:31):
I don't agree with that though.
I understand that it's animportant phase of a child's
life, but I don't believe thatwe should convey to children and
send the message that Highschool is going to be the best
(27:54):
that life ever is, because Ithink that sends a bad message
as it pertains To theexpectations the kids believe we
have for them.
I think it can be interpreted bythe kids as In a couple of
(28:19):
different ways OK, well, they'retelling me, if I'm, if I'm the
kid, and adults are telling meyou better enjoy this because
this is the best your life isever going to be.
It can be taken one of two ways.
Number one the child can thinkwell, they think I'm not worthy
(28:41):
or capable enough To dosomething that could be more
enjoyable than high schoolfootball with my life.
Another question the kid couldask is what do they think?
I'm never going to go anywhere?
Because the sad truth is Is thatmost kids, most men, that
(29:09):
played high school football in asmall town In Mississippi or
throughout the South, considerHigh school football to be the
best times of their life.
The primary reason being isbecause they hate what they end
up doing with their life.
Most of the time they end upstaying in that small town that
(29:36):
they grew up in and working anine to five, doing whatever
they got to do to To make money,and Playing goes out the window
.
Now it doesn't have to, and nota majority of those men don't
(30:01):
have to make the decision toStay or work a job.
That's unenjoyable, but I thinkus telling kids that the high
school football is going to bethe best part of their life Is
Also saying that's the bestthing that we have to offer here
(30:21):
, and I do think I want toclarify, like, I think, most
adults who say, that they meanit as in Don't take this for
granted, because this is a Don'ttake this for granted Because
(30:47):
this only happens once.
You're only 15, 16, 17, 18.
Playing a game Once.
So enjoy it, embrace it, smellthe flowers while you're here,
while they're blooming.
(31:08):
But I think it gets reinforcedwhen kids get out into these
desolate communities and they'relike man, I didn't have to
worry about shit, I can justplay ball.
And I didn't have to worryabout going to work this.
Do do ass, job up here atMcDonald's or the salt mill,
what have you?
Yeah, they were right, highschool football was the best
(31:32):
part of my life, the best partof my life.
And then a lot of people justgive up.
They they say to themselvesyeah, that was the best part of
my life, this is the beginningof the end and I'm just going to
settle.
And this is what life is.
I'm living this small town andwork this job that I hate for
the rest of my life andConceived to the fact that high
(31:57):
school was my best, the besttime of my life.
I think that's a very depressingscenario.
I also think it's a verydepressing way to think.
I think it's a very depressingway to think, because If people
(32:20):
think that high school orchildhood in general was the
best time of their life, thenwhat is that?
And say they're 25.
I mean, think about howdepressing that is to think
about the rest of your life,thinking that that's the best
time.
The best time, the best yearsare in your rear view mirror.
(32:41):
That's supposed to be like how,like an 80 year old feels or
some shit.
Like somebody that can't evendo shit anymore.
They can't even get out of thehouse, can't communicate with
people, has a bunch of healthailments.
That shouldn't be the opinionof a 25 or 30 year old.
(33:02):
I mean a 25 and 30 year old, inmy opinion, is still a kid.
Yes, adult responsibilities arethere.
Maturity needs to be there, butin the context of the, maturity
needs to be there.
But in the grand scheme ofthings, with the average
(33:25):
lifespan being 77 or whatever itis, I mean 30 is you still got
your health?
You still got A lot of things?
(33:46):
I mean you still got the but alot of the youth Ahead of you If
you take care of yourself, ifyou don't get to 35 and your fat
as hell and you've just packedit in and you giving up on your
physical appearance and health.
(34:09):
Mainly, there's a gentleman bythe name of Gary V.
He's an online personality.
I couldn't tell you exactlywhat he does, but if you look
(34:30):
him up you'll find him, and Iremember seeing a clip of him in
my early 20s of him saying thatexact thing like dude, if
you're 40, you are still young,you still have so much life
ahead of you, and if you're 30,obviously you're even younger.
(34:59):
But what he?
One of the things that he saidthat really resonated with me
and I took it to heart Was thatif you don't know what you want
to do with your life, try shit,try shit.
That looks different foreverybody.
(35:22):
Different obstacles anddifferent problems have to be
Faced depending on one situation, but I've tried shit and I'm
proud of that and I think thatthat's.
I think that's important andprovides an advantage to someone
(35:48):
who's had a lot of differentexperiences.
Now, I wouldn't count ongetting rich trying shit, but
you sharpen different tools, youexpose yourself to different
situations and you find out howyou react to certain scenarios,
dealing with different types ofpeople, as opposed to just being
(36:10):
on one track the entire timeand Trying things is chaotic,
but I do encourage it.
And you know, living bysociety's timelines, that is
(36:31):
good for some people.
Some people Are tailor made forGraduating high school, four
years of college, six years ofcollege, whatever they know what
they're going to study, they gostudy it, they kick ass at it
and then they leave college andthey go straight into that
Career and they live happilyever after.
(36:52):
That is great For a lot ofpeople.
But there are also a lot ofpeople who have signed up to
that conventional route and aremiserable.
And they don't have to be.
They can go try shit, but ittakes stepping outside of one's
(37:21):
comfort zone, being open minded,willing to fail, being open
minded and recognizing the factthat you may not always have the
secure paycheck of the job thatyou've had in that one track.
(37:44):
But like the way I look at it,man, is that life is too short
to spend the majority of ourtime miserable, the majority of
our time not doing what we wantto do or pursuing what we want
(38:06):
to pursue.
Forever is a long-ass time.
Deciding on a spouse and acareer should not be taken
lightly, because those are twothings.
(38:26):
That the way our society is setup.
It's great if you nail that,but it can be equally as
terrible if you don't.
If you decide on somethingprematurely, whether it be a
(38:47):
spouse or a job, and if you'rewith a spouse or a job that you
fucking hate, that makes yourlife miserable leave Because
it's not worth it.
It's not worth spending thosedays miserable Because you never
(39:09):
get those days back.
You never get that time back.
A similar situation like withmen who have children and they
work on the road.
Look, some people got to dowhat they got to do and I
understand that and I've neverhad kids and I've never been in
(39:31):
a situation where I've had tomake a decision such as working
away from them to make moremoney or being home and making
significantly less.
I don't know what that's likepersonally, but you can always
go make that money that youcould, that you would sacrifice
(39:56):
for being at home with your kidswhile they're growing up.
But flip it over.
Look at the flip side.
You can't ever get that timewith those kids back.
If you sacrifice that time, youcan't get that time back.
(40:16):
You can get the money.
You can go get the money backafter they're growing and going.
You can go make the money thatyou would have made working on
the road.
But life is too fucking short tobe spending our time doing
something that's not fulfillingand that we're not passionate
(40:43):
about.
Now look, there arecircumstances and we put
ourselves a lot of us put putourselves in situations where we
can't chase our dreams becausewe've made decisions to prevent
us from doing that or made itimmensely more difficult to
(41:05):
chase those dreams.
Getting married early is one ofthose things that can really
derail one's efforts, and andI'm not talking about being a
fucking superstar, I'm justtalking about doing this,
exploring that.
I'm talking about trying shitLike if you get married at 21,
(41:32):
then you have kids at 22, 23, 24, whatever.
It ain't about you no more, andit shouldn't be.
But it's not a sin to wait tillyou're 35 to get married so
that you can go explore and thatyou can go whatever.
(41:53):
Go go have 10 different jobs,like my dumb ass, but I wouldn't
trade that for the world as itstands right now.
I may get to be 55 and not havea pension or enough of my
retirement to be able to seeretirement in the windshield.
I don't think that's going tobe the case, because I think
(42:17):
I'll ultimately make the mostmoney possible, getting in where
I fit in from a work standpoint.
Not everybody comes out of thewomb knowing what the fuck they
want to do.
Not everybody comes out of highschool knowing what the fuck
they want to do.
Not everybody comes out ofcollege knowing what the fuck
(42:39):
they want to do.
Some people have to try shitand then it takes time to.
You know, I'm not talking abouttrying something for three
weeks, I'm talking about tryingit for a year.
Try it for a year, a year in.
You should know.
Yeah, this is kind of what Iwant to do, this is what I want
(43:01):
to do, and you may have to do itfor two years because of
circumstances, but at least youknow and the things that you've
learned in those differentexperiences you can take on with
you further into otherendeavors.
Like teaching has reinforcedsales, sales, reinforce teaching
, sales and teaching translatedinto project management.
(43:27):
The space that I'm currently inCoaching transferred into sales
, project management, leadershipacross the board and all
different and all of those roles.
There was leadership requiredin different capacities.
(43:50):
High school is not the besttime of our life.
The best time of our lifeshould be right now the moment
we're in, as difficult as thatmay be, but being mindful and
(44:12):
being present, being where ourfeet are and embracing that
moment should be the best timeof our life, and then the rest
take care of itself.
You'll make good memories thatway, okay so Southern Gangsta
Wrap.
(44:35):
So I want to do an analysis onBoosie Badass as a CEO In
comparison with Gucci Mane.
Alright, so Gucci Mane has gotthe new 1017 record label and
he's got Puscii, fuziano, cootie, big Fizzle, big Walt Doll,
(45:00):
among five or six others thatare signed to the new 1017.
Gucci said push ice to go toprison and big scar past.
And then I think he's got oneor two others Don't quote me on
that that have or that have beenin prison or are spending
(45:25):
extended Currently in prisonlong term.
Gucci main has done a pretty,he's done a really good job
identifying talent.
I love cootie and big fizzleand big walk dog.
Big walk dogs from Tupwiler,mississippi and cootie and big
(45:49):
fizzle are from Arkansas andupon signing these guys it was
obvious that push ice he was thestar, which he's now in prison.
Shut up Mike.
Push ice, he was the star.
Push ice, he goes to jail nowwalk dog and cootie and big
(46:14):
fizzle are rising to the top.
Hot boy West is another new1017 signee.
So Gucci main is hitting thetalent.
He finds good talent,identifies it, brings it on
board and his artists are havingsuccess.
(46:36):
Now boozy, on the other hand,with bad ass music syndicate, he
is also a CEO quote unquote CEOand he has artists under bad
ass music syndicate.
I'm not so sure boozy is asgood of a talent identifier as
(47:04):
Gucci.
Now I will say bad ass musicsyndicate.
I tried to find who theirartists are and I couldn't find
in one place.
Like 1017 has got a website, Icouldn't find one for bad ass
music syndicate.
Now, it was about a brief 10minute search, but like you know
, in today's search engineoptimization world, you would
(47:35):
think that bad ass musicsyndicate would have a website
and then it would be easilyidentifiable.
Nevertheless, I couldn't findwho who boozy has signed to his
label.
Now boozy did identify and signa successful artist from Mobile
, alabama, by the name of youngblue.
Young blue has blown up.
(47:56):
Young blue is very popular.
He's very good, and now boozyis in a war with young blue,
guysy and boozy's brother toquarry TQ.
So boozy's most recent albumwas about a lot of it was about
(48:21):
is titled going through somethings.
Go listen to ungrateful.
Ungrateful tells you I thinkit's the first track on the
album he blasts TQ, young blueand guysy, alleging that they
went behind boozy's back andstole blue, and now boozy wants
(48:42):
them to pay him and he's sayingfuck you to his brother and a
young blue and a guy's.
Boozy ain't going for that shit.
But I mean, boozy makes a lotof references.
He has a lot of like online.
He's saying that they forgedhis signature forged his
signature on a contract releasethat allowed blue out of the
(49:07):
contract, apparently.
But he's posted all this shiton his Instagram and I mean
basically disowning his brother,accusing his mother of loving
TQ more than she loves boozy.
And all this is in the music.
I mean, y'all know how it iswith boozy.
(49:28):
It is what it is, it's all outthere.
But if you go listen to hismost recent album, going through
some things, he outlines whathe's going through in the way of
contract disputes with anartist that he signed to badass
music syndicate.
I think Gucci main as it standsright now, just from a success
(49:54):
stamp on artist successstandpoint, I do believe that he
is ahead of boozy when it comesto being a former rapper turned
CEO, if you will, of a recordlabel like Gucci.
It's amazing to me how Guccihas transformed himself, like
(50:19):
before he went into the prisonand then to now.
It's like a totally differentdude.
He was actually rehabilitated,apparently.
Shout out to that prison.
I don't know if boozy wasrehabilitated or not.
(50:39):
I'm not so sure.
I mean where he finds himselfin the case, the gun case in
California.
Who knows what's going tohappen there?
Who has any idea what's goingto happen there?
I think they're going to try tonail them to the wall.
It'll be interesting to see,though.
Very interesting to see.
(51:07):
So we're going to start doing aclosing hymn on the solo
episodes, basically just a songthat I've listened to, that's
been in my playlist, that Ireally enjoy.
It'll likely be some random assoff the wall song.
It could be rap, it could becountry, it could be whatever,
(51:28):
whatever genre, it could be from2023 or 1923.
But today's closing hymn forthe county line congregation is
entitled Super High by Rick Rossfeaturing Neo.
It's Maybach music.
(51:51):
So I was listening to Rick Rossspeak the other day about his
Maybach music tag.
So at the beginning of ifyou're not familiar, at the
beginning of pretty much everyRick Ross song, there is a
female voice saying Maybachmusic and that's a tag.
(52:13):
I don't know if it's for his, Iguess it's just his songs but
he utilize that phrase as abranding tool to brand his music
, in my opinion, as an upperechelon street music, because he
does use.
He does use more.
(52:37):
He's not all trap music.
You know he has a lot of hornsin his beats.
Might even be in Super High.
I don't know, you'll have tolisten, but Rick Ross is another
one that's gone into semi CEOmode.
(52:59):
But I think Rick Ross has got ashit ton of money.
I think he has been smart withthe money he's made in rapping.
He's originally fromMississippi, by the way, and
Clarksdale, I believe.
If I'm not mistaken, rick Rosshas something to do with
Wingstop.
He's an investor in that tosome extent.
(53:22):
But go check out Super High byRick Ross and Neo.
Let the top down.
If you got a sunroof, let thesunroof down.
Let the windows down and crankRicky Rose, super High.
You're welcome.
