Speaker 5 (01:49):
You're very You're very much episode seven of Ripple, Like okay.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
So I was really thinking she would give me the
oh no, we looked. She did not give me that.
What I said, I good, look, it's Kyle, And if
Kyle asked for something, I just jump in because it's Kyle.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Right, you don't ask any questions.
Speaker 9 (02:09):
Good morning face, Hi, Good morning guys. Oh yeah, so
I was calling because I had sent you guys a
text about a little tidbit that I kind of caught
about Travis Kelsey and Kanye West. Right, because you guys
were talking about the recaps on Spotify and how Travis
(02:34):
Kelsey is number one with Taylor. You guys were laughing
about what if it was Kanye, And so it made
me think about in Taylor's podcast interview on New Heights
that Taylor had said, Well, they were introducing Taylor right like, oh,
she's done this, she went on the tour, sold this
(02:54):
many albums, and they're talking about the Arrows tour and
they're like, is this the is selling a concert of
all time? And then Travis going into the microphone and
I swear he like he mimicked what Kanye said. He
was like all time. I don't really, I don't think
(03:16):
many people caught it, but I was rolling, dude. I
was like, he was definitely crowning like what Kanye said.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
I think that's people would highlighted. Those swifties would have
caught that, I think, and I caught it.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 9 (03:34):
Yeah. I sent you guys you what Yeah? No, I
sent you guys the clip and I texted.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You guys and I sent you a little click.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Okay, good well, thank you, Faith. We'll take a listen,
have a great day.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Thanks for listening.
Speaker 9 (03:47):
Okay, right on, Thank you guys. Bye.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
By the way, I watched the two episodes of Taylor.
She's amazing. She's just if you guys seen that, I
know Kyle, did you guys? Peyton Richard?
Speaker 8 (03:56):
I saw like the clip of her and Ed Sharon,
and I actually thought that.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Was really weird.
Speaker 8 (04:01):
It was so I heard it, but when you see it,
I was like, that's dope.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
You're watching Like I think an artist in a generation
that you probably won't see it come around in a
long time. But anybody thinks that she is just promoted.
That is talent and she's also a great person.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
Well so in the very beginning, I think it's episode one,
So did you watch it, rich I've seen part one.
So to me, there's nobody like her, and there's no
one that's ever been like her. I almost think it's
an insult to her when they compare her to the Beatles,
but cares.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Seriously, who cares?
Speaker 6 (04:38):
But the hysterics, the fan base, the loyalty. I mean,
I think you can compare in that sense.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
She's beyond that though, she's way past whatever the Beatles
is done.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
And it's also too it's like I think back in
the day whatever Beatles, Elvis whatever people shared culture. We're
also split now because of the interview the Internet. For
everybody to get on board with something as big as
this and for it to go was big.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
It's just not going to happen again.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Like she sold out.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Five nights at Wembley Stadium, I know, five nights watching
that whole thing. The way she puts it together is
just incredible. And then the part about ed Sheeran, Like
it's cool because you know they ed Shearon gets there
like at eleven am right, and they're and they're rehearsing
and practicing. You see them doing that. Meanwhile, he comes
out on stagelet's say nine thirty at night. We're in
the saint clothes, Like.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
He's just like, I'm Swift Machine.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
When Florence's Machine comes out, she has a whole album
and change.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I mean, obviously she looks fantastic. She does her thing.
It's like she she came to wardrobe.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
I really liked when Florence's the Machine was talking about
being on stage with Taylor Swift. She's like, you know,
it's funny because I know Taylor Swift as a friend,
is this like warm, cozy person and she's a friend.
And then I'm on stage with her and I see
her doing her thing and she's like, oh my gosh,
that's believing Taylor Swift.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Yeah, that was a really cool too.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
I think she gave she I kind of wanted to
try this with our show, but she gave everybody on
the show on their thing bonuses on all these bonuses,
like one hundred and ninety seven million dollars for the bonuses.
And I wanted to film it because I thought, you know,
we got a little something for you guys too. I
thought it'd be funny because the utter disappointment from everybody.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Here wap Kyle, Yeah, that always says that thank you.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Yeah, we don't always get than except from Kyle.
Speaker 8 (06:22):
I want to, like Taylor pretty sure and send the follow.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Up text whatever.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
So Taylor writes his notes to every single person and
then she closes it with a wax seal, right, and
you hear moms like you did wax seals for everybody.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
She's like, I've been working on for.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Weeks, Like that's amazing.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
I know, it's crazy. Like meanwhile, you know, Blake has
them all in the envelope and she's like, can you
Rich please sign these? Like it's just you know, well,
you know, he's helping me with ours. There's like eight
people here her crew.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Like they're putting down payments on houses and stuff with
the money that they're making from that tour like road.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
No, you guys can go get Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
We like starring.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Do you just gotta share? That's okay.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
By the way, I got this new iPhone update and
it is the worst update I've ever had in the
history of iPhone updates. And I don't thinkyone else had
this problem. It's taken everyone's names off my contacts. I've
turned off my phone and started back up again. It
doesn't help. My kids' names are gone, my wife's names are,
my sister, it's all gone. And then if they move
things around, it's just it's frustrating. It's like the worst
(07:24):
thing ever, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Did you not back up any of your stuff to
the cloud?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Oh my god, don't you do that anyways? But for
when you get a new phone, you transfer it with
the stuff that's on the cloud or.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
I have no idea. I don't know Apple.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I mean.
Speaker 8 (07:38):
The nice thing is, though, is like Apple now has
that thing where if they text it says maybe and
then it says their name.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I don't get that. No, not now heina call what's.
Speaker 7 (07:49):
Up, hi, guys. I was just listening that lady called
about Travis Kelsey giving like a little dig to Kanye,
like I'm all time, And when I was listening to
the podcast, I immediately thought Travis was like referencing that
and kind of getting a.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Dig at Kanye.
Speaker 7 (08:09):
So I'm honestly surprised. It's not like a bigger deal
in the whole swifty you know, easter egg whatever. But yeah,
I immediately thought, oh, he's kind of getting like.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
A little dig at Kanye with the all time.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
You see, we had it Okay, last December she wrapped
up the air Sewer. Would spanned one hundred and forty
nine shows across fifty one cities fives It was the
most attended tour of all time, all time.
Speaker 7 (08:38):
Oh yeah, first, exactly, That's exactly what Kanye said. What
about Beyonce, he was like, of all time.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
He made it a point to say of all time.
Speaker 7 (08:50):
And I didn't know. I'm not really big on watching podcasts.
I didn't realize it was video recorded, so I was
only listening to it when it came now and I
heard that, and I was like, oh wow, that was
a little bit of a little jab there, but.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
It probably got lost because of all the Easter eggs.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Yeah that album, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I mean that was a big That was when we
found out the album was coming out. So I probably
got lost in that.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
I think you're right, Nicoll. Thanks for calling in, Nicole.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Thanks, guys, have a good one.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Hi, Amanda, Hi.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So uh, these guys were talking about the bonuses and
stuff like that she talks about giving in her documentary
and all of that, right, so I can confirm that
she did give that to everybody. I have a friend
that's a truck driver who drove pieces of her stage
around on her tour in the US, and they did
(09:49):
get the bonus.
Speaker 9 (09:51):
That's so wild.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
So and he was like, what the heck? And he
said it was a very a very a large amount
of money, you know what he said. So I know
where he lives, things are a little bit cheaper to
live and like that sort of stuff. So I think
that he ended up like paying off his vehicles, like
he had like a truck and house and stuff, and
(10:15):
I think he ended up paying off his vehicles and
then paying off like a majority of his house.
Speaker 9 (10:22):
Yeah, but the truck.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Drivers one hundred thousand dollars I think is what the
story was.
Speaker 8 (10:26):
A ton of money just to get rand than that.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
The dancers go well, and the truck drivers, if you
think about it, they had which again, if they had
like I want to say, he said, like two or
three stage setups actually going or like, so they would
have one crew with the one stage at one place
and the other one would be driving to another place
to set up. So that's how she got that huge
stage setup set up over and over and over again
(10:52):
so quickly, because they from what it sounds like, they
had more than one stage setup. So one crew would
go win one she would do a tour. They would
take tear down that stage set within like five to
six hours, put it on the trucks, take that one
to the next leg. She'd already have the other one
started setting up in the next place where she was,
So it was just like a rotating uh and one
(11:14):
convoy would be going one place and one would be
going another.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
That's insane. It's probably on a scale you haven't seen
ever before. But it'd be cool if she set up
for like three months at the sphere in Vegas and
just didding, like, would she ever do that? She could
rift in Yeah, it's kind of it's kind.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Of like the I think about the experience she could
make right like, and she talks about yeah, yeah, but
that would be very cool.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
By the way, I think the truck driver's got one
hundred thousand and the backup dancers got seven hundred and
fifty thousand. I know.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
That's why we see him crying when.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
They when they open up those letters, they're crying.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
And the guy there was there's one backup dancer who's
heavy set, and he they do this whings cam. They
do this whole interview with him about how he's heavy
set and how he got put down all the time
in dancing class, and then Terry swifts like I want
people in the audience to look at the dancers to
say that's me. And then they interview his mom and
his brother is an NFL player on the Chiefs. Yeah,
(12:08):
on the Chiefs, on.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
The Chiefs with Yeah, he's on the Truce of Travis Kelsey.
So there's like a whole there's like a whole link. Yeah,
there's a whole link there and and and everything. But yeah,
she she's not shy about giving. She what she says
that or people say that she she gives it sounds
like and it sounds like she hand delivers a lot
of things behind the scenes when people aren't around either,
(12:31):
because it sounds like she brought out the checks to
each different group of people that she was giving these
bonuses too, and like handed them to them. So he
had nothing but nice things to say about her. I
think this is the first or a second, first or
second tour that he's been on with her. But he's
in a professional like touring truck company that takes set
(12:53):
pieces for all kinds of groups and bands and stuff.
He did mg K the first time when he came here,
like he does. He's just they get contracted with everybody.
So but yeah, he did confirm that the things that
you're hearing are very possibly correct.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Thanks Amanda, thanks for listening, Thanks for calling.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
In the problem by Yeah, like also.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
The dancer cam his mom right the interview his mom
and his mom's like, I'm such a huge fan of
Taio Swift that I'm sitting gone, sure you are, your
son's a dancer around the shit you're gonna say you're
a tater Swift fan and then they cut to her
in the audience and she knew every word every song
and she was like it was like wow, and I
love that storyline. I don't know how many episodes there
are of this Taylor Swift.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Show, but no, I think it goes all the way
through next month.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
There's like, oh good, They're probably gona drop one episode
a week, but they dropped two on Friday. And I
hope they follow the storyline with that guy because I
love that dancer.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
Yeah, I think everyone loves I think my new life
goal is to be a backup dancer for Tater Swift.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Shame on YouTube for not watching it on YouTube.
Speaker 8 (13:54):
Sorry, Honestly, this conversation made me really want to go
watch it. I'm not like the biggest Taylor Swift fan ever,
but I like her music and I think what she's
doing is super cool.

She's like, I've been working on for.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Weeks, Like that's amazing.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
I know, it's crazy. Like meanwhile, you know, Blake has
them all in the envelope and she's like, can you
Rich please sign these? Like it's just you know, well,
you know, he's helping me with ours. There's like eight
people here her crew.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Like they're putting down payments on houses and stuff with
the money that they're making from that tour like road.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
No, you guys can go get Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
We like starring.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Do you just gotta share? That's okay.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
By the way, I got this new iPhone update and
it is the worst update I've ever had in the
history of iPhone updates. And I don't thinkyone else had
this problem. It's taken everyone's names off my contacts. I've
turned off my phone and started back up again. It
doesn't help. My kids' names are gone, my wife's names are,
my sister, it's all gone. And then if they move
things around, it's just it's frustrating. It's like the worst
(07:24):
thing ever, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Did you not back up any of your stuff to
the cloud?
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Oh my god, don't you do that anyways? But for
when you get a new phone, you transfer it with
the stuff that's on the cloud or.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
I have no idea. I don't know Apple.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I mean.
Speaker 8 (07:38):
The nice thing is, though, is like Apple now has
that thing where if they text it says maybe and
then it says their name.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I don't get that. No, not now heina call what's.
Speaker 7 (07:49):
Up, hi, guys. I was just listening that lady called
about Travis Kelsey giving like a little dig to Kanye,
like I'm all time, And when I was listening to
the podcast, I immediately thought Travis was like referencing that
and kind of getting a.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Dig at Kanye.
Speaker 7 (08:09):
So I'm honestly surprised. It's not like a bigger deal
in the whole swifty you know, easter egg whatever. But yeah,
I immediately thought, oh, he's kind of getting like.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
A little dig at Kanye with the all time.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
You see, we had it Okay, last December she wrapped
up the air Sewer. Would spanned one hundred and forty
nine shows across fifty one cities fives It was the
most attended tour of all time, all time.
Speaker 7 (08:38):
Oh yeah, first, exactly, That's exactly what Kanye said. What
about Beyonce, he was like, of all time.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
He made it a point to say of all time.
Speaker 7 (08:50):
And I didn't know. I'm not really big on watching podcasts.
I didn't realize it was video recorded, so I was
only listening to it when it came now and I
heard that, and I was like, oh wow, that was
a little bit of a little jab there, but.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
It probably got lost because of all the Easter eggs.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Yeah that album, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I mean that was a big That was when we
found out the album was coming out. So I probably
got lost in that.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
I think you're right, Nicoll. Thanks for calling in, Nicole.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Thanks, guys, have a good one.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Hi, Amanda, Hi.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So uh, these guys were talking about the bonuses and
stuff like that she talks about giving in her documentary
and all of that, right, so I can confirm that
she did give that to everybody. I have a friend
that's a truck driver who drove pieces of her stage
around on her tour in the US, and they did
(09:49):
get the bonus.
Speaker 9 (09:51):
That's so wild.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
So and he was like, what the heck? And he
said it was a very a very a large amount
of money, you know what he said. So I know
where he lives, things are a little bit cheaper to
live and like that sort of stuff. So I think
that he ended up like paying off his vehicles, like
he had like a truck and house and stuff, and
(10:15):
I think he ended up paying off his vehicles and
then paying off like a majority of his house.
Speaker 9 (10:22):
Yeah, but the truck.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Drivers one hundred thousand dollars I think is what the
story was.
Speaker 8 (10:26):
A ton of money just to get rand than that.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
The dancers go well, and the truck drivers, if you
think about it, they had which again, if they had
like I want to say, he said, like two or
three stage setups actually going or like, so they would
have one crew with the one stage at one place
and the other one would be driving to another place
to set up. So that's how she got that huge
stage setup set up over and over and over again
(10:52):
so quickly, because they from what it sounds like, they
had more than one stage setup. So one crew would
go win one she would do a tour. They would
take tear down that stage set within like five to
six hours, put it on the trucks, take that one
to the next leg. She'd already have the other one
started setting up in the next place where she was,
So it was just like a rotating uh and one
(11:14):
convoy would be going one place and one would be
going another.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
That's insane. It's probably on a scale you haven't seen
ever before. But it'd be cool if she set up
for like three months at the sphere in Vegas and
just didding, like, would she ever do that? She could
rift in Yeah, it's kind of it's kind.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Of like the I think about the experience she could
make right like, and she talks about yeah, yeah, but
that would be very cool.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
By the way, I think the truck driver's got one
hundred thousand and the backup dancers got seven hundred and
fifty thousand. I know.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
That's why we see him crying when.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
They when they open up those letters, they're crying.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
And the guy there was there's one backup dancer who's
heavy set, and he they do this whings cam. They
do this whole interview with him about how he's heavy
set and how he got put down all the time
in dancing class, and then Terry swifts like I want
people in the audience to look at the dancers to
say that's me. And then they interview his mom and
his brother is an NFL player on the Chiefs. Yeah,
(12:08):
on the Chiefs, on.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
The Chiefs with Yeah, he's on the Truce of Travis Kelsey.
So there's like a whole there's like a whole link. Yeah,
there's a whole link there and and and everything. But yeah,
she she's not shy about giving. She what she says
that or people say that she she gives it sounds
like and it sounds like she hand delivers a lot
of things behind the scenes when people aren't around either,
(12:31):
because it sounds like she brought out the checks to
each different group of people that she was giving these
bonuses too, and like handed them to them. So he
had nothing but nice things to say about her. I
think this is the first or a second, first or
second tour that he's been on with her. But he's
in a professional like touring truck company that takes set
(12:53):
pieces for all kinds of groups and bands and stuff.
He did mg K the first time when he came here,
like he does. He's just they get contracted with everybody.
So but yeah, he did confirm that the things that
you're hearing are very possibly correct.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Thanks Amanda, thanks for listening, Thanks for calling.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
In the problem by Yeah, like also.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
The dancer cam his mom right the interview his mom
and his mom's like, I'm such a huge fan of
Taio Swift that I'm sitting gone, sure you are, your
son's a dancer around the shit you're gonna say you're
a tater Swift fan and then they cut to her
in the audience and she knew every word every song
and she was like it was like wow, and I
love that storyline. I don't know how many episodes there
are of this Taylor Swift.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Show, but no, I think it goes all the way
through next month.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
There's like, oh good, They're probably gona drop one episode
a week, but they dropped two on Friday. And I
hope they follow the storyline with that guy because I
love that dancer.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
Yeah, I think everyone loves I think my new life
goal is to be a backup dancer for Tater Swift.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Shame on YouTube for not watching it on YouTube.
Speaker 8 (13:54):
Sorry, Honestly, this conversation made me really want to go
watch it. I'm not like the biggest Taylor Swift fan ever,
but I like her music and I think what she's
doing is super cool.
