that you reinvented yourself. You had the CMT show Maybe
in America and then you find out, you know what,
I would make more money doing this on my own
(01:04):
on a platform like YouTube, and so you leave it,
and you do you may well.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Maybe in America is supposed to be a two episodes special, okay,
and we end up doing eight I think, and they
ran and it was doing it did well. Then it
got to the points that more people was watching the
toaster than watching my TV show. So don't don't build
up like I chose to leave it.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I think one hell of a toaster. Toasters from a
jay hillbred stockyard.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Yes, yes, yeah, used to be a greyhound. Yeah the
U but yeah. And then I people are like, you
need to do YouTube. No, no, no, I got to
get on to another TV show, movie or whatever, and
and uh and I start learning about this social media.
I've never been more recognized in public movie and did
(01:50):
natural Born pranks with lion Gate and yes that's not
a matter of fr Netflix right now. But see, I've
done all these things and nothing has made me more
popular than like Facebook and YouTube and Twitter and TikTok
and Instagram.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I work them all. I have to.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
I'm like, it's kind of weird being my age, you know,
doing the social media. And plus I don't get ten
pages of notes, you know, we think you'd be funny
if you had a purple shirt on, you know whatever,
you know, and I really like being my own little
boss and doesn't do anything.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
So I think it's fascinating because then you took and
you always reinvest in your career and you reinvest in
in retirement, with with with properties. But I found it fascinating.
I want to put too much your finances out there,
but here we go. You had a double suite office
complex that you built a studio out of. You paid
(02:41):
for half of that, like one office, you paid for
one office off one video. So successful, and.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
You know that's what that's that's what happened on Hilton
Had Island was And I'm not trying to just as
I would I would, trust me.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Sometimes it's way up there.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
And then sometimes it's four dollars. I'm like, am I
going to donate some blood?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
You know, it's question the four dollars? Don't going Wait
a minute.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
My wife cracks up laughing, and I said, the algorithm
gods or hate me right now?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Oh my guys, I hate me.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
So she's like, oh my gosh, it's you know, how
long since two thousand and nine you've been doing social
and it's always the up and down. But when you're
self employed, you know, I'm one move away from buying
an airplane or one move away from being homeless. And
that's how it's always been. And I still call my
wife and hey, I got forty bucks out of ATM.
She's like, I think you're fine, You're good, you know.
(03:31):
But it's just the way I was just brought up,
you know, extremely single parent, extremely poor.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
You know.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
And so now when I and my thing is I
just my my old CD.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Just I got to keep my craft together, you know,
you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
So, but you're very political sometimes on social media it's bad.
Is that a bad move? Number one mentally?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
But number two, well, if you want to lose half
your following.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Games, that's where I was.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
That's where I was, by well by when back when
Trump and Hillary are gonna, I had I got. I
got two major pages on Facebook, tomm a comedy Maybe
in America together four million followers. One page was off
for Hillary, another page was offered. But here here lately,
I'm like, guys, if you love the Prime, you love
the open borders, you love hoigh gas prices, do and
(04:20):
keep voting a withy your vote, man, and I'm like,
shut the hell up, Tom, I mean I like that
and not delete it.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
And man, know, because I was getting really harsh for
a while, I started walking it back, walking it back,
and I'm like, you know what, I'm.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Just gonna Nothing good could come from telling nobody the
vote republican.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I mean, you're not good. I mean I want you to,
but I will never talk about vote republican.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Halving the two pages reminds me of because you always
did all these videos.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Every one page will get canceled or get fired right
if we get it, one will get pushed up in
the get so and at the I had a management
company for a while, Beverly Hills for social It's called
the Fight Me and said, you want to combine these
two paid to be one. I said, no, I don't,
because I'm going to do something stupid or say something stupid,
and I'll get put in you know, Facebook jail for
you know, for sixty days, and you won't make any money.
(05:10):
And then I can't tell you how many times that
has happened, that this one's kicking ass. And all of
a sudden, I say something stupid, right, and I just
I say a word that rhymes trump, and I'll put
your hands.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
On no this, I'm swearing on my mother's eyes right now.
If I post something with word law enforcement or like
l MPD something like that, it gets suppressed because you know,
I know, I can post something and it'll get an
X amount of likes, no matter what. It could be
a dog, turd, it could be whatever, right, right right.
If I post something and involves law enforcement, it immediately
(05:42):
gets suppressed. Same with my wife. It's amazing. I'm serious,
the algorithms they have.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
It's just political stuff social get can she How was that?
Your wife's a politician? Well, how how's that with social?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
With her?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Can she promote? And can you promote her?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
She's got her own she's got her own, uh, Susan
Tyler Whitten State representative page. And then she has her
own for example, she can block anybody on our on
our private page. But if you're a public official, if
you're in the House of Representatives like she is, she can't.
Is illegal for her to block people.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Wow, but you.
Speaker 1 (06:22):

a bar and it was the uk U of L basketball game. No,

for the neighborhood. And you've started this clothing line and
this shelter dog is man. It's a good looking shirt.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Look, you know right, look you're going to buy You're
going to buy a shirt anyway. And those people, those
people the vineyard, they don't need your money. And you
never played polo. We don't need a polo shirt. Every penny,
every cent of profit goes back to a shelter. Maybe
you'll tell me Tom, this shelter struggling. I will tell you,
all right, well, we got this bucket of money or whatever,
a cup of money, whatever it turns out to be,
(13:27):
go so that shelter. And when and you've done them
with me, when budget permits, I'll go into a shelter
and I will like, don't even tell them, and we'll
just give them a bunch of computers, and we give
dog dogs makeover, we brite massage therapist.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Then for their employees, we've.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Done a lot of cool stuff and sometimes they're bigger
and better than others. And then I'll do a show
and then all the money from the show we'll go
back to the shelter. And we've done like four of
those now and that they've worked out well, so I
don't even get pa.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
So this clothing line, I'm sorry, No, that's okay, that's okay,
but no, it's it's it's a and like you said.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
My dog Poppy that I saved the day you and
I were at the Humane.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Success I remember Poppy. Uh and by the way, who
would rather have a I'd rather have a shelter dog

cares about whales? Right, they are sheltered, they already got that.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
No, but yes, right, But you know these are is

You know, it's a coffee shirt. You said you were
next to large. I think they running tab big. That's
a big shirt. Uh the U or unless you were
talking any uh but no, man, thanks for bringing up

animal shelters.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
And in the morning.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
Uh, every time I go there, I just wish I
had a form give them all.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
It's so heartbreaking when because you know, we know where
they're overpopulated as you know, and it's just I want
to if I could do anything, if God say, hey, Tom,
you could do anything and everything, and that I could
quit everything and kids were out of colleges and stuff,
I would definitely beat cats and dogs.

help shelter animals. And it's not specific to one shelter.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
It's like who there was in need because there's so
many of them, you know, and it's uh, it could
be the Metro Animal. It could be, it could be whatever,
you know, the Shamrock Foundation, whatever it could be. It
doesn't matter, you know, and you can I will say
the white whereas that you could just tell me because
I know you're you're you're extremely uh invested in the
in the animal world and you know, I know, I.

hectic and so busy to get the child back and
forth to physicians and hospitals. Officer Malekai, he works out

about four o'clock. Twenty dollars at the doors. All that's
going to cost will fid you. You can party and
have some good music to listen to.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
And I got to tell you cancer sucks, but man,
two year old child is just not fair. Two year
old child with cancer. It's not for that child. It's
you know, the child should be just doing two year
old things, playing with blocks, doing whatever two year old does.
And especially not fair for the mom and dad and
you have a blessing of a child and now going
(29:45):
through this. It's just not fair. But Cariboo, you're always
there doing good for the neighborhood. Bill What is it
about Caribou that constantly I mean, you step up, you
step up, And I know how monotonous and how grueling
that gets people tugging on and you non stop. Hey,
I got because there's no shortage of events and want
uh what what? What gave you guys the uh fortitude
(30:09):
to go ahead and go through with all of these
charity gigs because I got to tell you you've done
a lot of them.
Speaker 7 (30:14):
Well, it's for the same reason we put the band together.
Begin with the love of music and getting out and
playing and having people dancing and having a good time
and smiling and really getting into the music. And of
course fifty years seems like a long time. It went
by pretty quick. When John decided to put this band
together way back when, uh, and we we never missed
an opportunity if somebody's in need. You know, the band
(30:37):
is a perfect vehicle for that. It's one of the
songs we do, by the way, very good and uh
so we don't want to pass up any opportunity we
can fit in the schedule.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
The hard part is fitting it in the schedule.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
Do you remember when I told you I was gonna
get the band together?
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (30:51):
I remember what I said to you that day when
I asked you to be in the band.
Speaker 7 (30:53):
Yeah, he said, you want to be my trumpet player?
And I said, why would I do that, I've already
got a girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
And he but you talked me into it, yeah, yesterday.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Well well hang on, so that could be insulting because,
uh Charlie Watt from the Stones actually punched Mick Jagger
in the nose one time because early on he referred
to him as my drummer. Oh yeah, in an interview.
So Charlie Watch walked down the hotel room hallway, knocked
on the door, Jagger open up, hit him square in
(31:24):
the nose and said, I'm not your drummer, you're my
lead singer. But so when you all start the band,
how how old are you? And did you think that
you'd be together for this long.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
I think John did. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:37):
Really we were seventeen eighteen, maybe senior years that way.
He got this idea going and we started rehearsing in
my grandmother's garage. Like all the bands you got starting
a garage. I mean, yeah, you don't, You're not a band.
And now we never dreamed I had. I remember the
first Cariby shirt was was handmade by mix wife. She
(31:58):
made the first Karriby team shirt. And then we started
printing T shirts because I thought, well, you know, one
day the band's going to break up and we need
something that we can hold onto that has the name
on its right. Remember that, right, We're still printing T
shirts and I think you have one.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
I know, I definitely have one. I've got I've got
the American flag, red white and blue one, and I
usually wear it to the fourth of July celebration that
you guys are at. But one thing about it that
it didn't dawn on me. The sea in Cariboo mimics
the sea in Chicago because you all were Chicago fans.
It's still harder this day. As a matter of fact,
(32:33):
I'll be driving down the road and I'll be a
red light and in Chicago beyond. You know this would
be true. I'll show you a text of the of
the of the radio showing the Chicago show. Whenever I
think Chicago, I think of Cariboo. How did y'all come
up with the using the Chicago see? Just big fans?
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Yeah, not only that.
Speaker 6 (32:51):
Back in the day, the Cariboo rants out in Nederland,
Colorado was a big, famous recording studio and a lot
of big names games including Chicago recorded there. Elton John,
a lot of big names and very famous place. It
has since burned. I don't think there's much building left.
(33:11):
It all out there, but it's now been donated. It's
up for servation.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
It's up for sale for forty eight million, nine hundred
thousand dollars. You can have it.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Oh wow, I might have to get it. Yeah. Yeah.
Elton John actually had an album called Character right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
That's where he did it.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
We stole the name and said, hey, we like him
so much, we'll name the band after the ranch.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
So it's the care of it.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Well, listen, Louis Kentucky's blessed for fifty years to have
Caribou as a band. But once again they're doing good
for the neighborhood and folks, listen, loved ones, they need
your help. Malachai Green only a third division officer, only
two years old. Is the child that's in need stage
four cancer. Go ahead and give the details one more time.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Well, thank you. I want to make sure all twelve
of your listeners hear this. October nineteenth.

FOP Hall, sixty two.

Speaker 6 (34:04):

get you backstage.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
You can meet the band. Hey, I tell you what.
I would even let you get on the bus. Okay, yeah,
we'll do that. Well if we had a bus.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
But how much how much does it cost to not
have to do all that?
Speaker 6 (34:20):
It's only twenty dollars at the gate and come out, yeah,
come out and say hello, meet all of us. Even
a little joy will be out there and come out

family out there.
Speaker 5 (34:44):
Okay for that twelve listener, crack, I have some audio.
I have some audio from the very first Caribou gig.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Oh wow wow, oh oh wow.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Oh I remember that gig.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Yeah, that was a hard song to learn. This was
in eighteen twelve. It was was this when the gold
Rush hit, Dave. I think before that actually, because I
remember they had the Caribou gold Rush t shirts. If
you went you bought a pick at old Man McGregor's
pick store, you got a free Caribou shirt.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
That's a good one.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
Thank you, real quick though, real quick. And if you
don't have this lined up, we're gonna have you all
back on before and I'll get on social media. Is
there a way if people can't attend that they can donate.
Has there been a GoFundMe or is there anything like
that set up? If not, get me the details and
I'll get it out there.
Speaker 2 (35:32):
Okay, Yeah, there is actually a QR code. Okay, but
of course have to see the flyer.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
I'm fifty six. I don't have a QR cold. I
tried it yesterday for Louder than Life and I got
frustrated with my wife. Here, you do it. Listen.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
Can I say one more thing?
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Okay, So back to Montana, the child that's in me.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
Uh, you know, I've got I got four adult children,
they've got kids. I got nine grandchildren. Every single one
of them is healthy, not a single thing wrong with them,
you know, except when they sure had kids, know, which
is often. John has a ton of kids too. Uh,
we're lucky, we're blessed.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:05):
Uh, you know, Caribou can do this for the for
the family, and if everybody can do this for the family,
then this kid is going to live longer. And this
benefit is very important. And Malachi is a great guy,
and so his wife is just wonderful human being. And
when this happens to a family, they're devastated, and they
are they are drained as far as financial.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Malachi can't work enough off duty. He can't.
Speaker 7 (36:31):
There's enough ours in the day, and he you know,
he's got to sleep sometime, which I'm sure that's what
he's doing. But you know, those of us that have been
blessed with healthy children, yes, let's go for this right
and help this family who's blessed with a child.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
And uh and need some help.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
