year out August last year. Wow, okay, And how has
life changed for you? Just how do you frame up

I mean a lot of travel, like I have never
traveled as much of my life, like doing going on

which was incredible seeing all these wild places. And then yeah,
(00:59):
I mean well when the song came out, like the
week the song came out, I was like working at
desk job.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
So in that way, everything is wait.

I'm I like it because it feels Yeah, it feels good.
But I realize a lot of people only know what
my hair looks like. So if I wear a hat,
then you know it won't happen. So if I was
like there was a jingle ball where I, like, you know,
I performed and then I went to like a restaurant
across the street, and like people would see me, and
so then I put on a hat and then no.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
One ever came to me, And I was like, this
is a fun I like Superman. It's like he's got
the hat on, He's not. That's not it's a signature
vibe for you.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
What about Have you been in an uber or a
car where lit bu thing comes on and they don't
know you're in the car?
Speaker 2 (01:58):

Speaker 3 (02:01):
What do you do?
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Yeah, it's well, I usually say nothing, but.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
If I'm with a friend, they'll be like this, turn
it up.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Exactly. We're so different.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Like when a promo comes on for the morning show,
when we're in any car, we're like, that's our show, that's.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
I's if a commercial comes on, that's me, that's aw I.

Should Yeah, all right, So we got new music we're
going to talk about here. A new song, Slipping featured
Meghan Trainer is out today, and we'll talk about tickets
to go see Paul Russell.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
How the two of you link up? Wow, Well, we
I guess we had some mutual connections. Uh, and so
someone I don't even remember how it all happened, but
she just ended up reaching out about the tour and
we just kind of became friends from that, and so
that's how you know, this song came about. You know,
made the song, and then.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
It was weird to just be like, oh, why don't
I text this to Meghan Trainer, see if she likes it.
She's got a good sense of humor, she's fun, she's fun.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Yeah, she's a really good time and like her family's amazing.
Like I've you know, been over there and met everybody,
and so yeah, it's a you know, it's a good
person to be hanging out with.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
The last time I saw you in person. We were
standing together on the American Idol stage and I was
talking about the fact that you're going to be going
on tour and opening up for her.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Yeah yeah, crazy. Wow that that feels like it was
so long ago and here we are now. You know,
I guess the tour is happening pretty soon, which is
crazy and.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Big venues, big venues. Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
There's so many venues that you know. I didn't, like,
I didn't know what Red Rocks was, but yeah, I
guess that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Everyone knows about it.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
It's a dream bucket list for sure.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
People kept being like, you're gonna be at Red Rocks,
Like the.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Red Rocks is a outdoor venue in Colorado, Yeah, and
SNeW what it was.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah yeah, and it like apparently apparently.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Well look if I say something wrong, I've never been there,
but apparently it's like in a cave or something or
like looks really, I don't know, you're no in your
head like you might know. Yeah, everybody's I haven't been,
But it's about the list because everybody talks about like
the acoustics because it just bounces off the cave and
it's just like, really really good.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I want to go. Yeah, it's wild. So I'll tell
you guys how it is. But or you guys can
pull up. Let me wind this down. Here's this the
plan here.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Paul Russell is in, We've got free gas to give away. Next,
DJ Triple x L is also gonna pop by he's
got a Friday mix.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Then we'll get to slipping Paul's new track kiss.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
If I'm hang on, fam DJ triple x L mix
those up, by the way. You can.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
You're you're a trained DJ, Paul Russell, right, you can mix.
I don't know how good I am.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
You know, I'm good at picking some songs, you know,
I'm not really the transitions I'm working on, and I'm
working on it. You know, maybe you'll see me up
up there DJ and at some point.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
But uh, you know, there's there's something I think connective
to that song that we just played their Million Dollar
Baby and Little Booth. Thing Like when you play that
Tommy Richmond song, it just like the second it starts,
it stands out. It just jumps out in front of
everything else that we're playing. And Lo bou Thing did
the same thing the second you start that song, don't
(05:10):
you It just jumped at you.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Yeah, no, I think I think it did have that
impact for a lot of people, which which I love.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
I think. Uh, you mentioned DJ.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I always think about how I feel like being a
good musician is a lot like being a good DJ,
because you have to like figure out what's going to
stand out to people, like like what's gonna make people
have the emotion that they want to have so that
they stay on the dance floor, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
So you you go back to the drawing board after
global success of Loboo thing you were going to desk job,
this happens, your life changes, and now there's the pressure
to do it again.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Right, It's like, what where did you start?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Because I'm gonna play what you did that's got real
heat behind it.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
But where did you start? What were you telling yourself?
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Well, definitely in the beginning, it was just terrifying, being like,
oh my gosh, Like I'm gonna have to keep making
music and hope people like it, you know, But I mean,
gladly it's something that I just enjoy doing. But I
think for this song, you know, a thing that I
do a lot of times is I'll just think about
what's the sort of music that I really want to
listen to. But I just haven't heard anything that sounds
like that in a little bit. And there's like a
(06:13):
category of songs. I don't know how to define it,
but it's songs like like just a Friend by Bismarcky
or like like.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Like Miss Jackson by.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
So it's like something, Yeah, it's like, hey, there we go, okay,
but those songs just make me want to sing along
at like three am at the top of my lungs,
you know, And I feel like I've wanted more music
like that, and so kind of part of making this
song was just being like, Okay, let me try to
(06:45):
make something that I myself would love to like sing
at karaoke or like would love to scream at three
am somewhere.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
And here's what you came up with. It's called Slippin'.
It's Paul Russell and Meghan Trainer.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Check it out. One to two point seven, Kiss family.
Why don't you love man?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
You say it, I'm fine.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
I guess naught enough man, because I keep on slipping
through where you want it? God, man, you want a head?
Speaker 5 (07:22):
And man, girl that see you because I keep on
slipping through, slipping through your fingers, through my hair. You
like the bread, sleeping on my couch, hold my clothes? Said,
you want to man, just like my baby.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
If fu because I keep pumping you. You see you
because I keep pumping they may.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Do you.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Think I'm siving your finger.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Thing?
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Why you gonna gost me?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Leave me on?
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I'm the one who's waking up beyond it and the
one you.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Brag about to your offense. Why can't I call you
my man?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Don't you dead? Be sometimes nothing? Don't want to stay?
Don't do the mind.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Because your.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Can you daddy too? Can you please just tell me
what else? I got the money?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Don't you?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
It's not.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Because I need.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
You, see because I need.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Do some.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
Thing.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
It's so fun slip in It is Paul Russell and
MegaNet Trainer teaming up.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
So wait, what's the sample on that? Nothing? We just
it sounds like something that heard it for the first time.
He was just like it's there's something there. Yeah, it's not.
It's funny.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
What we did was we it was actually like the
producer on the song and I sat there and like
recorded ourselves singing and then used like AI to make
it sound like a girl.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
And then and then that was the sample, you know,
which is not a sample at all. So that's so fascinating. Cool.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
So you used a similar like architectural structure to the
song because it's an instant.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Instantly familiar almost exactly. Wow, that's the trick making.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
I definitely think the goal is to make stuff that
you feel like you've heard it before but you haven't.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, that's how you know you're tapping into something.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Or you just feel like you know it immediately, right like,
oh I've heard that song once, I know it. And
a real uh read on a song moving us is
when the three of us awkwardly look at you and
dance while you're in the studio while we listen to
your song. I think that's a real I love it
and shout out to Megan Trainer, who's awesome. And it's
(11:01):
great to see you guys working together. So Slipping is
out today and tickets you go see Paul on tour
with Megan. Are on sale at ticketmaster dot com. Love

And then and then that was the sample, you know,
which is not a sample at all. So that's so fascinating. Cool.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
So you used a similar like architectural structure to the
song because it's an instant.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Instantly familiar almost exactly. Wow, that's the trick making.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
I definitely think the goal is to make stuff that
you feel like you've heard it before but you haven't.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, that's how you know you're tapping into something.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Or you just feel like you know it immediately, right like,
oh I've heard that song once, I know it. And
a real uh read on a song moving us is
when the three of us awkwardly look at you and
dance while you're in the studio while we listen to
your song. I think that's a real I love it
and shout out to Megan Trainer, who's awesome. And it's
(11:01):
