00:00:25.980 Today's guest is a one-of-a-kind type of man

00:00:28.680 in the country music genre

00:00:31.980 and really just a young legend in entertainment.

00:00:36.780 He just won the CMA's New Artist of the Year Award.

00:00:43.820 I mean, he's just, the dude is just dang talented.

00:00:46.860 And we're happy to have him here today, Mr. Morgan Wallen.

00:00:49.960 It's like, I thought comedians 10 years ago could say whatever they wanted.

00:01:18.660 Whatever they wanted.

00:01:19.620 Oh, yeah. I feel like, yeah.

00:01:20.800 And now it's like, comedy's even getting restricted, right?

00:01:23.620 Yeah.

00:01:24.280 That sucks because some of the funniest jokes are the most messed up ones. 0.78

00:01:27.500 I know.

00:01:28.260 Well, I think now one thing you're seeing, though, like in clubs,

00:01:30.580 like say in, like Denver has a club where they will

00:01:34.180 take your phones before people go in.

00:01:37.800 They'll bag them up.

00:01:39.000 So it's this company even that they have like these little bags at the front.

00:01:42.180 As you check in and get your ticket, they put it in there.

00:01:44.440 They lock it.

00:01:44.980 So you get to keep your phone, but there's no way for you to unlock it.

00:01:48.980 So then, at least then, it's like the environment is still safe,

00:01:53.160 but all it takes is somebody who's being risque.

00:01:56.280 It's not like they're patting them down or anything.

00:01:57.720 Yeah.

00:01:58.060 No, they're not.

00:01:58.840 Yeah.

00:01:59.140 Shaking them.

00:01:59.620 There's not like a T-Mobile mascot out there, you know, for it's good or anything.

00:02:05.040 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:02:05.880 It really should be, though.

00:02:07.420 No doubt.

00:02:08.900 But yeah.

00:02:09.500 Do you think about that in music, though?

00:02:10.800 Do you think about, I don't know, does that play the same in music

00:02:14.020 where there's things you can't say now?

00:02:16.120 I haven't really considered it, honestly.

00:02:18.580 I mean, I guess if I were to write a lyric and I was, you know,

00:02:22.760 thought somebody might get triggered by it, maybe.

00:02:25.420 But so far, I haven't, so far, I have not really even considered that.

00:02:31.120 Dude, people, yeah, people love your music, man.

00:02:34.820 I was at a funeral, I'm not even joking, probably about seven weeks ago,

00:02:39.240 and they played, what was the one album?

00:02:42.200 What was the album that Whiskey Glasses was on?

00:02:44.320 What was the title of that album?

00:02:45.280 It's called If I Know Me.

00:02:46.400 Yeah, they played that at it.

00:02:47.580 Yeah.

00:02:47.960 And I'm like, it was the weirdest fit, bro.

00:02:49.640 They played If I Know Me?

00:02:50.640 Yeah.

00:02:50.920 If I Know Me.

00:02:52.060 Yeah.

00:02:53.100 What?

00:02:53.420 For a funeral?

00:02:54.060 No, it was really weird, bro. 0.98

00:02:55.660 But I said, damn, this guy has made it. 0.97

00:02:58.580 I mean, he's made it not only for the living, but for the dead. 0.99

00:03:01.160 For the dead.

00:03:01.780 That's almost more important.

00:03:04.080 What do you feel like?

00:03:06.780 Because now, I mean, you're famous now.

00:03:09.700 I think, yeah, it's starting to feel that way.

00:03:13.520 Yeah.

00:03:14.040 I, you know, I just, I went to the airport the other day and got recognized.

00:03:18.980 This girl came up to me and I was trying to be incognito, you know, like somewhat.

00:03:23.880 I wasn't hunched over.

00:03:26.760 What, do you take a cane?

00:03:28.120 Yeah.

00:03:29.160 But I had, you know, I had a mask on and had a hat on and stuff.

00:03:32.960 And I had my back turned to her and she came up and poked me in and was like, hey, are you

00:03:37.220 Morgan Wallen?

00:03:37.760 I'm like, yeah.

00:03:38.900 She's like, are you really?

00:03:39.620 I'm like, yes.

00:03:40.380 I really am.

00:03:41.780 And so we got a picture or whatever.

00:03:43.380 And before we, before she left, I was like, by the way, how, how'd you know it was me?

00:03:47.820 You know, like what gave it away?

00:03:48.740 She was like, I just know your eye region.

00:03:50.600 And I was like, my eye region?

00:03:54.260 All right.

00:03:55.000 That's a little creepy, but.

00:03:56.340 You might have to get like a little, you have to get something.

00:03:59.100 You might have to get some shapes and specs or something.

00:04:00.740 Well, on the way back, I, I put, I just wore a hood and that, the hood was fine, but

00:04:07.180 like summertime travel, I'm not sure what we're going to do there, you know?

00:04:09.980 But that was my first time being in an airport by myself in a long time, really since I haven't

00:04:15.300 been in an airport by myself in probably like three years.

00:04:17.880 Right.

00:04:18.580 So, and then since quarantine, I haven't been in an airport at all.

00:04:21.440 So it was just like, it was a leap of faith.

00:04:23.400 Dang.

00:04:23.900 And you went by yourself.

00:04:25.000 Yeah, I did.

00:04:25.760 Dang.

00:04:26.200 Is it, uh, now was this part nice?

00:04:28.180 Cause I noticed this, like it used to be like, I would feel, cause I mean, I get recognized

00:04:32.460 some, right?

00:04:33.200 But it's a, it's a different level.

00:04:34.860 I feel like that you're on, like, especially with music, like people are, you guys are rock stars,

00:04:38.900 you know, like we got to come up with some serious riddles.

00:04:41.940 You know what I'm saying?

00:04:43.200 Like, I don't have a bass drum out there.

00:04:45.180 You know what I'm saying?

00:04:45.660 Like you guys really put it on people.

00:04:47.600 Yeah.

00:04:48.140 Um, but I noticed having the mask is really nice because then it's like, if I want the,

00:04:52.880 uh, the, the possible, the, the dopamine hit I get from somebody who recognized me or

00:04:57.980 whatever, I can, I can, I can make that happen.

00:05:00.360 And if not, I can put it up.

00:05:01.800 Yeah.

00:05:02.320 Well, sometimes I'm sure you might get recognized too, just based off your hair.

00:05:05.880 Yeah.

00:05:06.160 I'm sure that might be the case, but yeah, the hair doesn't help.

00:05:09.180 No, it doesn't help.

00:05:09.680 It doesn't help you either.

00:05:10.380 Probably.

00:05:10.740 No, it doesn't at all.

00:05:12.060 Um, but that's also a good thing.

00:05:14.380 I think, you know, it's like, well, do you want it to work?

00:05:16.280 You're probably going to have to deal with being recognized sometimes, you know, it's

00:05:18.620 just part of it.

00:05:19.180 So I don't, I don't, I don't dislike it.

00:05:20.780 It's just, it can be a little, especially just, you know, just realizing you might be being

00:05:25.060 videoed or whatever.

00:05:25.920 It's just, it's a little weird, you know, it's like you feel a little violated, you know,

00:05:29.020 but it's just part of it.

00:05:30.720 Um, but the mask thing, you know, maybe I don't want masks to be required forever, but

00:05:35.460 maybe like for the next couple of years, it won't be weird if you're, if you're wearing

00:05:38.120 a mask, you know, stick one on for the next couple of years.

00:05:41.940 Well, the air, I like it on the airline because for one, I noticed everybody's quiet on the

00:05:45.400 plane.

00:05:45.680 It's like, it's quiet.

00:05:46.700 It used to be maybe there's some loud kids, you know?

00:05:49.480 Um, and then also I feel like, like I started to feel this pressure sometimes where if I wasn't

00:05:54.440 in first class, then it would make, then I would be like, people would think something

00:05:58.640 of me like, oh yeah, it's my own thing in my own head.

00:06:01.040 It has nothing to do with them.

00:06:01.920 It's my own thing.

00:06:02.580 Like, oh, they're going to think I'm not success.

00:06:04.320 You know what I'm saying?

00:06:04.860 I get that.

00:06:05.380 Yeah.

00:06:05.780 So like, then it's kind of nice if I can't say, if it's just a last minute fight, there's

00:06:09.200 no first class, I can sit anywhere.

00:06:11.040 And as long as I have my mask, I'm pretty safe, you know?

00:06:13.880 Yeah.

00:06:13.960 Nobody's probably going to come up to you.

00:06:15.020 Yeah.

00:06:15.320 Yeah.

00:06:15.800 I understand the pressure though.

00:06:16.780 I know what you're talking about.

00:06:17.400 It's like, oh, you want to, I'm doing something.

00:06:19.360 I'm doing so well.

00:06:20.020 I got four number ones, but surely he's got a lot of money, you know?

00:06:22.800 He got four number ones and why is he in 16D, you know?

00:06:26.400 I got news for you.

00:06:27.760 I got more fans than I got money right now.

00:06:31.980 Now, is it kind of crazy going from, like, I noticed there's a moment where you're good

00:06:39.660 and you know it, right?

00:06:41.520 You know what you're capable of.

00:06:42.900 You know, like, just as an artist, as a performer, as just a human being, you know it, but other

00:06:48.140 people don't realize it yet.

00:06:49.540 And for me, that always felt like a kind of a special kind of place.

00:06:53.140 It's like, I know how capable I am, but everybody else kind of doesn't really.

00:06:58.300 But then you break the levy there and then it's like, everybody just knows.

00:07:04.240 It's almost like the secret has been told, kind of.

00:07:06.600 You ever feel anything like that?

00:07:07.800 Yeah, I do.

00:07:08.640 I mean, and I think at that point, you know, it's like, before people know, you have something

00:07:13.420 to prove for yourself, you know?

00:07:15.720 Like, I got to show them because I want to, you know?

00:07:17.860 And then once you get kind of past that, they start expecting it from you.

00:07:21.380 And then you're like, oh, I got to prove it for them now.

00:07:23.120 So it's like, it's just two different kind of places, I guess.

00:07:25.680 But hopefully you can hold on to proving it for yourself for a long time because I think

00:07:28.940 that's more important than proving it for anyone else.

00:07:31.180 Yeah.

00:07:31.900 Yeah, I agree.

00:07:32.540 I think it just gets tricky, you know?

00:07:34.120 It does.

00:07:34.640 I think just the more success you have, the trickier it gets is what I'm realizing.

00:07:38.080 I don't even know how to put all of it into words, but there's just so much going on

00:07:40.940 at once, you know, like somebody, they expect this and, you know, they think they've bought

00:07:45.560 in, they've cared about you for so long, so they have to, they have a say in what you

00:07:49.160 do, you know?

00:07:49.720 It's like, they almost feel like they're half your manager or something, you know?

00:07:52.460 So it's like, you got to be careful about listening to it and reading into people's

00:07:56.780 comments too much because you, I mean, they love you because you're you, not because of

00:08:00.540 what they want you to be, you know?

00:08:01.840 Yeah. 1.00

00:08:02.720 Damn, man. 1.00

00:08:03.160 I wish you lived in my head, bro, because I go down the other path. 1.00

00:08:05.420 A lot of times I'll start like, you know, I worry so much like, what do people expect

00:08:09.500 now and like, how, how would I behave, you know, sometimes, you know?

00:08:14.120 And I'm sure for you guys, it's even a total, it's at an even more grandiose level.

00:08:17.620 No, don't get me wrong.

00:08:18.440 I don't live that, I don't, I don't always live by what I just told you.

00:08:21.500 I sometimes, I'm not, like, do as I say, not as I do, but I try to, you know?

00:08:29.260 Like, there'll be days where I'll go down that rabbit hole and I'm like, God, dude, this

00:08:32.320 is, this is impossible, you know?

00:08:33.740 Because so many people have so many different opinions, there's no way to, to please all

00:08:37.720 of those.

00:08:38.220 Yeah.

00:08:38.420 But some days I wake up and I'm like, hey, I'm gonna do what I want to today and I just

00:08:41.420 feel like I'm a lot happier that way.

00:08:43.160 Amen, man.

00:08:44.220 Wow.

00:08:45.200 Now, do you notice like, uh, yeah, you said there's like fans, like whenever you have fans

00:08:49.480 from a long time ago that have been with you since the beginning, kind of, it is interesting

00:08:53.320 because you'll kind of listen to them and sometimes I'll almost go to them for like a point

00:08:57.280 of view of myself that I feel like I can't get anymore.

00:08:59.600 Yeah.

00:09:00.480 No, I get that, dude.

00:09:01.180 I, I, you know, there's some people, it's been so long since we've, we've played shows

00:09:04.300 who haven't seen their faces in a long time, but I mean, there, there was this one guy

00:09:07.740 in like the South Carolina, North Carolina and anywhere in that region, he would come

00:09:11.100 to just every single show, you know?

00:09:12.800 And I'd always talk to him, maybe have a drink with him or whatever.

00:09:14.960 He was just like my boy.

00:09:16.020 Yeah.

00:09:16.260 Um, and then there was this lady and her, and her, uh, family member that they came

00:09:19.880 to, I don't know, like 20 something shows, like, you know, in a year or something, something

00:09:23.200 insane, you know?

00:09:23.940 Yeah.

00:09:24.380 And those, you know, you start seeing those faces and you start, I don't know, you start

00:09:27.480 really appreciating them and start caring for them.

00:09:29.200 And I, and I, yeah, you know, if I look for a comment, I'll, I might look for theirs first

00:09:32.500 and be like, yeah, yeah, you know, they, they get it, you know?

00:09:34.500 Yeah.

00:09:35.460 Yeah.

00:09:35.740 There is something special about that.

00:09:37.240 Yeah.

00:09:37.360 Like I used to have a couple of people that would drive to different shows, like come one guy

00:09:40.740 drove his, like, he had this like beautiful car he'd refurbished and he brought it up from

00:09:44.800 like Tallahassee and drove it up so I could see it at a show one time, you know, just because

00:09:50.360 we'd had an interaction online and it was just like, man, it's pretty, it was just interesting,

00:09:54.480 you know?

00:09:54.620 But then I felt next thing I'm riding around the block in his car and stuff like that,

00:09:57.680 you know, it's interesting.

00:09:59.200 The fans you kind of have from the beginning, you know, it is.

00:10:01.240 I mean, at that point you don't really think about it.

00:10:02.960 You're like, you know, you may be like, oh, well,

00:10:04.780 they're here again, you know?

00:10:06.240 Great.

00:10:07.520 But the, the longer, the longer you get going and the more people that jump on the wagon,

00:10:13.120 you kind of, I don't know, you just never forget them.

00:10:14.900 I guess you never probably will.

00:10:16.260 And that's, that's kind of cool.

00:10:17.660 Yeah.

00:10:18.000 Super cool.

00:10:18.900 But you can't like, it's, it's interesting because in the beginning you can kind of have

00:10:21.640 a beer with that one guy or you can kind of have a beer with that, you know, the mom

00:10:24.900 and daughter that came and you can give them a hug after a show and there's, you know,

00:10:28.500 you can hang out outside of the venue and spend a little bit of time with people.

00:10:31.800 But then that starts to go away.

00:10:33.820 Definitely.

00:10:34.780 And yeah, I mean, for you, you can't, I mean, you can't do that anymore.

00:10:37.460 No, no, you can't.

00:10:38.940 And like I said, it's been so long since I've, since I've even played a show.

00:10:41.660 I feel like things have even for, for us, the last, since the last time we played a

00:10:45.920 show and now things have grown so exponentially.

00:10:49.180 I mean, it's like unreal how much they've grown.

00:10:51.420 So I don't even, I'm not even sure what I can, what I can, can't do it inside in a venue,

00:10:56.280 you know, because it's just, it's just so much different.

00:10:58.740 But yeah, I remember we used to play some, you know, we, we started playing shows,

00:11:02.120 me and my booking agent, we, we had a, you know, a whole plan, you know, instead of

00:11:05.820 going and opening for other people, playing, you know, clubs and, and theaters and opening

00:11:11.060 for someone, let's just go do our own thing in these tiny places and build it from the

00:11:14.680 ground up.

00:11:15.180 Amen.

00:11:15.340 So like, we would go to like, I can't remember, like the boathouse in Myrtle beach or something.

00:11:19.940 It was called something like that, you know, and I would, I would play a, I'd play a show

00:11:23.240 for maybe a hundred people, 200 people.

00:11:25.180 Probably a hundred boats too.

00:11:26.380 No, no, I don't even think it was on the water.

00:11:28.160 I don't even think it was on the water.

00:11:30.220 Oh, come on, man.

00:11:31.700 That's false.

00:11:32.500 Yeah, yeah, bro.

00:11:34.060 But I can't remember what, I don't know if that's the exact name.

00:11:36.640 I could be wrong.

00:11:37.200 Man, that's like an oyster bar, but they only have lamb.

00:11:39.200 Yeah, it's like, oh man.

00:11:40.740 Um, but that would bring, I would bring people up on the bus and I was like, that's when

00:11:45.360 I first got a bus, you know, it's like, I was, I probably wouldn't even, I wasn't making

00:11:47.800 any money at the show.

00:11:48.920 I was losing money to pay for this bus.

00:11:50.240 Yeah, if you, if you have a bus in the beginning, you'd lose money to pay for that bus.

00:11:53.740 I was losing money for sure.

00:11:55.720 And, uh, but I would bring them up there and I'd play them songs, like four or five people,

00:11:58.900 I'd play them songs on my bus, you know, just on the guitar and they would hang.

00:12:01.440 And it was like, I think that those are moments that I, you know, I didn't realize how,

00:12:06.060 how unique those moments were at the time because I didn't, I didn't know if I was going

00:12:09.460 to do any more than that.

00:12:10.480 I didn't know if I was going to make it any further.

00:12:11.880 I didn't know if I was going to get another bus.

00:12:13.260 I didn't know if I was going to get a tractor trailer.

00:12:14.820 You know, I didn't, I thought I might have to give this bus back real quick.

00:12:18.700 So, uh, but it's looking back now, it's those moments were really unique and special.

00:12:22.960 And, uh, and I know I'll, I'll remember them and I think they will too.

00:12:25.900 Yeah.

00:12:26.840 Yeah.

00:12:27.120 It's funny, man.

00:12:27.660 It's interesting how like, um, yeah, those moments, it's like they just kind of disappear.

00:12:32.000 It's they don't disappear.

00:12:33.200 I mean, you always have them, but you can't go back and relive that exact same thing a little

00:12:36.820 bit.

00:12:37.460 No, you can't.

00:12:38.080 And I think that's part of what makes them unique and special, you know, cause if you

00:12:41.160 could continue to do them, then it would just not be a special for, for anyone.

00:12:44.240 It would just be a known thing.

00:12:45.600 And I think that's part of, you know, the, the, the mystique about something like that.

00:12:50.040 Um, but yeah, it would, it's, it's, it's funny to think about like the, the steps that

00:12:55.620 you take to, to get where you're going and how beautiful a lot of those, you know, those

00:12:59.400 things, those moments that you, once you look back, you realize how unique and special

00:13:03.400 they were, you know, and you don't, once you get to a massive scale, it's kind of just

00:13:06.960 like a lot of them are the same kind of deals the whole way through, you know, it's like,

00:13:10.640 Oh, you've reached this point.

00:13:11.600 Where do you, where do you go now?

00:13:12.720 Right.

00:13:13.320 Yeah.

00:13:13.580 You start working with the same company.

00:13:15.280 Everybody's kind of, it becomes a little bit more like a Best Buy kind of a little bit,

00:13:19.160 a little more corporate.

00:13:19.760 Yeah.

00:13:20.120 Yeah.

00:13:20.460 A little more corporate.

00:13:21.040 But we got a question right here from a fellow that sent this in right here.

00:13:23.540 All right.

00:13:23.800 And obviously a Joe Burrow fan.

00:13:25.100 All right.

00:13:25.380 Hey, T.R.

00:13:26.160 Morgan.

00:13:26.440 This is Phlegm from Washington, D.C. 1.00

00:13:28.860 Yes, Phlegm, like the shit in your throat. 1.00

00:13:30.620 Damn, brother. 1.00

00:13:31.120 It's a little different by way of Alabama. 0.98

00:13:34.240 And this question for both of you guys, I just wanted to know, uh, when you guys were

00:13:38.540 up and coming and making your way, whether it's in standup or in country music, did you ever

00:13:43.280 book a gig or show up to a venue and there was only like two or three people there?

00:13:47.180 And since you had already booked and weren't being paid, you just had to power through.

00:13:51.840 And, uh, how awkward was that for you?

00:13:54.580 Thanks.

00:13:55.500 Gang, gang.

00:13:56.080 Gang, bro.

00:13:56.660 That's a good question, man.

00:13:57.600 Yeah, Phlegm.

00:13:58.540 That's a...

00:13:59.660 Hey, in honor of him?

00:14:01.340 In honor of Burrow's leg?

00:14:03.480 Clear my throat right there.

00:14:04.780 In honor of your boy.

00:14:07.840 Good question.

00:14:09.760 I did.

00:14:10.920 Did you?

00:14:11.620 Yeah, bro.

00:14:12.640 I did a few of those.

00:14:13.800 Yeah, dude.

00:14:14.520 Um, just one?

00:14:18.740 I wish there was only one.

00:14:20.100 I know.

00:14:20.700 It's okay.

00:14:22.880 Um, probably my most notable one was like, I don't even know if I'd gotten a record deal

00:14:30.000 yet.

00:14:30.860 It was right when I first moved to Nashville and my booking agent was like, cause I had

00:14:36.280 a band, you know, and he was like, well, I'm gonna, we're gonna, I'm gonna send y'all

00:14:39.300 out on the road and play some cover band shows and just make sure, just get you guys in your

00:14:42.320 band just a little tighter and, you know, make sure you guys are good.

00:14:45.720 Right.

00:14:46.240 Excuse me.

00:14:47.360 All right, cool, whatever.

00:14:48.480 What was the band's name?

00:14:49.880 Oh, it was just me.

00:14:50.580 Oh, it was still.

00:14:51.040 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:14:51.300 You and your band.

00:14:51.780 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:14:51.980 Okay, got it.

00:14:52.480 Go.

00:14:53.000 Sorry.

00:14:53.440 But we were singing like, like we were playing like a long, long sets, you know, like a couple

00:14:57.740 three hours, like a long time.

00:14:59.320 Yeah, bro.

00:14:59.680 You're doing weddings.

00:15:00.800 Yeah, basically.

00:15:01.660 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:15:03.360 Except I think weddings paid a lot better than this.

00:15:07.220 And, you know, there would have probably been some hot girls at the wedding. 1.00

00:15:11.080 This was not that.

00:15:12.860 A lot of thick step dads at this deal, huh?

00:15:16.860 Yeah, just got off the public golf course.

00:15:20.840 A lot of rosy-cheeked old men, huh? 0.98

00:15:23.180 Yeah.

00:15:23.660 A lot of Santa's little helpers out there.

00:15:25.420 And probably this one, man.

00:15:28.740 It was in Greenville, North Carolina.

00:15:31.160 It was the first one we had done, man.

00:15:33.760 And so what they told us was we were going to go to Greenville, North Carolina.

00:15:38.760 That's where East Carolina University's at.

00:15:40.340 Okay, cool.

00:15:41.000 You know, it was like a Friday or something.

00:15:43.080 Yeah.

00:15:43.260 Yeah, sure.

00:15:44.020 There'll be a lot of college kids out here.

00:15:47.940 You know, hell yeah.

00:15:48.980 This will be great.

00:15:50.620 We get there and like the first thing the dude says to us, he's like, yeah, by the

00:15:53.380 way, guys, it's rush week or something.

00:15:55.800 None of the frats or sororities are allowed to go out this week.

00:15:57.840 Oh, that's bad.

00:16:00.220 Okay.

00:16:01.320 That's bad immediately.

00:16:02.660 You know, maybe there's some people that stuck around this town that are a little younger.

00:16:06.180 Maybe there's some people that dropped out of school that are still milling.

00:16:08.300 Yeah, or they didn't make to the frat, you know?

00:16:09.680 Yeah.

00:16:10.480 Yeah.

00:16:10.700 Yeah.

00:16:13.280 We'd go up there and so as soon as he starts saying that, I start pounding PBRs.

00:16:17.400 Yeah.

00:16:17.740 Just in the middle of the day, I'm like, oh, this is going to be.

00:16:20.820 Oh, yeah, bro.

00:16:21.620 This is going to be bad.

00:16:22.520 That's the North Carolina State Burr, the PBR, dog.

00:16:25.380 Amen.

00:16:26.480 Cuckoo! 0.59

00:16:27.160 I don't know.

00:16:29.240 But, man, we get out there and I'm pretty lit, dude.

00:16:33.980 And like, honestly, we have not had a chance to practice that much.

00:16:37.480 And there's a bunch of songs on this list, you know?

00:16:42.040 So I'm damn near making up words with these songs, lit, singing.

00:16:47.940 And there's like four people, you know, one person kind of dancing a little bit.

00:16:51.380 By himself, that's the worst, bro.

00:16:53.700 Yeah.

00:16:54.120 I couldn't tell you who was actually there. 0.98

00:16:57.080 But I start midway, like, dude, I'm like halfway talking shit to the crowd. 1.00

00:17:02.460 I'm like, God, you gotta suck. 0.99

00:17:05.520 I'm just not having a good time, you know, not feeling it at all. 0.99

00:17:09.340 You know, telling my band to replay the chorus.

00:17:12.700 And at the end, you know, let's do that.

00:17:13.800 I'm like, let's just keep this song going because I don't know the next one.

00:17:16.460 Yeah, yeah.

00:17:17.280 And it was like one of those moments where I knew I didn't want to do that.

00:17:21.600 I didn't want to play cover band shows.

00:17:22.960 Yeah.

00:17:23.680 Because it was extremely difficult.

00:17:25.640 And you just don't ever know what you're going to get.

00:17:27.120 So I think that moment, I'm pretty sure one of my buddies that I brought with me, like,

00:17:30.920 told the guy his bar sucked and, like, he got kicked out of the bar. 0.62

00:17:35.740 You know, one of the five people there was my buddy and he got kicked out because he was 1.00

00:17:39.320 being an idiot. 0.99

00:17:40.820 And it just, but it was one of those moments where I was like, well, I need to get it 1.00

00:17:43.180 together.

00:17:43.480 We really need to, I want to make something of this.

00:17:46.540 I really, really love singing.

00:17:47.660 I really don't like singing other people's music the whole time.

00:17:50.140 I'd really like to sing my own.

00:17:51.280 Yeah.

00:17:51.460 So let's hone in and really work on this.

00:17:53.820 And that was like, that was the worst one we ever, the first one was the worst one.

00:17:56.980 And we kept getting better. 0.99

00:17:58.520 Damn. 0.99

00:17:59.100 And you're still with some of the same guys today? 1.00

00:18:00.900 Yeah.

00:18:01.340 Everybody in that band is still my band except for my, one of my guitar players and it was

00:18:05.240 not any bad blood or anything.

00:18:06.380 He, he just got married and wanted to stay at home.

00:18:08.520 Oh yeah.

00:18:08.760 I heard about that.

00:18:09.340 I remember you talked about that in a different interview.

00:18:11.520 Yeah.

00:18:11.860 Man, that's wild, dude.

00:18:12.660 I remember, let me think.

00:18:16.480 I remember one time, uh, they brought me out.

00:18:22.760 It was a, this was actually a Greek event.

00:18:25.420 This was in, this was like university in North Florida or something.

00:18:28.600 So they bring me out there.

00:18:29.380 Where's that at?

00:18:29.960 Uh, I don't know.

00:18:31.420 And it's, it's one of those schools.

00:18:32.500 You're like, I don't know if this really is school.

00:18:35.700 There's like 18 schools in Florida and that ain't, that's, yeah, they cut it off.

00:18:39.580 That's number 19.

00:18:41.300 There's like four gyms on campus. 0.99

00:18:43.200 You're like, this shit is a little weird. 0.99

00:18:44.820 You know, like this shit ain't, this ain't checking out. 0.99

00:18:47.680 So they're like, okay, we need you to go out there, start the show off. 0.99

00:18:50.760 It's going to be great.

00:18:51.400 Right. 0.99

00:18:51.600 I go out there, but these kids do not give a fuck about me. 0.97

00:18:55.540 All they care about is seeing their friends who are performing because each one of the 0.98

00:18:59.260 Greek groups had like one of, they're doing something.

00:19:01.800 They're doing like a, uh, you know, they're playing a song or doing a skit.

00:19:05.420 Okay.

00:19:05.920 So I'm just, yeah, talent show.

00:19:07.920 So I go out there and I guess they didn't consider me talent.

00:19:11.000 So I go out there, but they're, they're booing.

00:19:13.660 So I'm just ripping through my material because it's all I have is my only weapon.

00:19:17.560 Yeah.

00:19:18.100 My only weapon is just these words that I have, you know, and only have about 15 minutes of

00:19:22.380 material.

00:19:23.140 So I burned through that in about seven minutes, you know, uh, yeah.

00:19:26.700 Because part of your thing is like pausing and none of that.

00:19:31.400 Well, every time I pause, I can feel how much more they hate me, you know, these pauses are

00:19:36.400 pretty painful.

00:19:37.700 So I get through that.

00:19:39.360 I bring out the group who's performing coming out next and I get backstage and they're like,

00:19:43.220 that was good.

00:19:44.480 Uh, and they're like, you're back up in three minutes or something.

00:19:47.720 Right.

00:19:47.980 And I had to go out seven more times.

00:19:49.740 I don't know that stage.

00:19:50.480 You'd had no more material for 15 minutes each.

00:19:52.480 Uh, no, no, no.

00:19:53.300 For like three minutes each after that.

00:19:54.900 So you're like the host kind of, yeah, man.

00:19:58.440 Ooh, it got so bad, bro.

00:20:00.120 Like the third time, the third time I picked up an American flag that was backstage and just

00:20:06.340 walked out with it.

00:20:07.540 That was it.

00:20:08.260 Somebody sing the national anthem out here.

00:20:10.880 Yeah, totally.

00:20:11.820 Like I was surrendering, bro.

00:20:13.540 Like I just was giving up.

00:20:15.000 Spray paint that thing white.

00:20:16.560 Yeah, it was bad.

00:20:18.720 Just going over the red.

00:20:20.140 Yeah.

00:20:20.420 Yeah.

00:20:20.980 Dude, it was bad, man.

00:20:22.260 But by the end, it was almost funny that I kept coming out.

00:20:24.840 They're like, no way he's coming back out.

00:20:26.340 And I'd be like, I'm back.

00:20:28.060 How long ago was that?

00:20:29.920 Man, that was probably 10 years ago.

00:20:33.060 But the one that hurt my feelings most, I had a special that came out on Netflix probably

00:20:36.500 a few years back, about five years ago.

00:20:38.260 And I thought, man, this is it.

00:20:40.320 I made it.

00:20:41.340 I've watched it.

00:20:42.140 I've watched it.

00:20:42.320 Oh, thanks, man.

00:20:42.940 I appreciate that.

00:20:43.700 Yeah, yeah.

00:20:43.820 And so I get out there.

00:20:47.580 I go to Chattanooga.

00:20:48.540 It was in Chattanooga.

00:20:49.300 I'm performing.

00:20:50.240 And I'm excited.

00:20:51.160 I get there.

00:20:51.620 I'm thinking it's going to be hype, dude.

00:20:53.080 Finally, people are coming.

00:20:54.200 I've been doing this for, you know, nine years, 10 years.

00:20:57.180 Finally, people are going to come out.

00:20:59.880 And I got there, bro.

00:21:01.020 And there's like seven people there.

00:21:04.440 It didn't do anything, dude.

00:21:06.300 And there was just one like, and one girl came, bro.

00:21:12.020 And that's always, bro.

00:21:13.160 And it hurts you because it makes you think like, dang, dude, I wish it wasn't her who

00:21:18.000 came.

00:21:18.480 But also, we'll see how it goes, you know.

00:21:21.120 This is only one girl.

00:21:24.180 And, bro, she was a tough girl, boy.

00:21:28.360 She had all the shoulders, bro. 0.81

00:21:30.020 She was just a strong lady, you know.

00:21:32.360 Yeah, you met her?

00:21:33.120 No, I've met a few, yeah.

00:21:34.320 Okay.

00:21:34.600 Yeah, I mean, I love linebackers, too, you know.

00:21:37.340 Yeah, no, she was, she was, she was just, and I still, I think I did actually end up

00:21:42.600 making out with her, honestly.

00:21:44.320 Yeah, you know, that's where I was at.

00:21:46.900 She came, you got to, you appreciate her, you know.

00:21:50.360 Oh, dude, and she's a great girl. 0.98

00:21:51.860 She's a very sweet gal. 0.99

00:21:53.500 And I actually ended up, years later, she came up to me and said, do you remember me?

00:21:57.840 And I said, I don't think so, you know.

00:22:00.440 She said, I came to your show in Chattanooga.

00:22:02.420 And I was like, man.

00:22:03.400 And I was actually pretty grateful she'd come, because she was one ninth of the audience,

00:22:06.380 you know.

00:22:06.620 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:07.880 I'm here.

00:22:08.660 Yeah, she was at least a ninth, you know. 0.87

00:22:10.840 But it was, yeah, that was a tough one, man.

00:22:15.020 So you were having this, that was when they filmed the Netflix thing?

00:22:18.600 That's when it, no, that's when it came out.

00:22:20.760 Oh, got you.

00:22:22.320 So I thought that had changed things.

00:22:23.280 Well, I'm on Netflix, I'm, yeah, I've made it.

00:22:25.120 Yeah. 0.99

00:22:26.040 And damn, it didn't do, it didn't do anything. 0.99

00:22:28.560 Isn't, isn't, I mean, that's, that is a, that's an interesting thing, you know. 0.99

00:22:31.440 You get, or like, for me, it'd be like Spotify or something, you know.

00:22:34.060 Like, all right, I got on, I got on Hot Country, surely.

00:22:36.720 Now, I've made it.

00:22:37.800 And people, people are going to care now.

00:22:39.320 Yeah.

00:22:39.720 Just because some, just because the editor really cares about me means everyone in the

00:22:43.100 world is going to care, you know.

00:22:44.400 Yeah.

00:22:44.900 It's like, it's not always how it goes, you know.

00:22:46.660 You, you, and it's interesting to think you, they just got to care about you, not because

00:22:51.860 some, not because Netflix does, or because HBO does, or, you know, those, those people

00:22:57.060 are just taking risks.

00:22:57.880 It's not like, they're not God telling these people to, to watch, you know.

00:23:02.340 Right.

00:23:02.620 Sometimes we give them that power.

00:23:03.980 I think I always did, especially when I was coming up, I gave the media that power.

00:23:08.100 Well, I think the media probably had a little bit more power when you were coming up, you

00:23:11.380 know, because they didn't, or even maybe a little further than that, because that was

00:23:15.620 a lot of people's only way of, of getting to see you.

00:23:18.540 Right.

00:23:18.720 You know, there wasn't as much social media, there wasn't as much YouTube.

00:23:21.400 It was like.

00:23:22.260 Yeah, they were really the gatekeepers.

00:23:23.980 Yeah.

00:23:24.300 Yeah.

00:23:24.820 Yeah.

00:23:25.180 And now it's like, somebody offered you a TV show, I said, I've turned down television

00:23:28.380 shows left and right.

00:23:29.180 It's just like, I wouldn't, I would just have more success, because I found success eventually

00:23:33.560 by just starting my own thing.

00:23:35.240 Yeah.

00:23:35.420 You know, and going and doing things like Joe Rogan, like guys like that, like saying, come on the podcast.

00:23:39.500 And then that's what changed me, at least people being able to at least see me for me, you

00:23:44.960 know, but like you're saying, they more of a natural thing.

00:23:46.940 They, they gravitate towards you.

00:23:48.980 They do.

00:23:49.500 It's something about like, they can push it as many times.

00:23:51.640 You can push the spins as many times they want.

00:23:53.520 But if there's not something, I think that they, if there's not something deeper in there,

00:23:57.960 then it's not going to stick.

00:23:58.920 It won't, man.

00:23:59.600 And it's interesting.

00:24:00.560 And like for, for, I mean, I don't know what it, I don't, it's hard to put it that into

00:24:03.900 words too.

00:24:04.280 It's like, I don't know what, what it is that people like about me or what it is that people

00:24:07.460 like about you, but clearly there's something that they are drawn to, to that they feel

00:24:10.880 connected to that.

00:24:11.900 I think it's just being real, dude.

00:24:13.540 I really do.

00:24:14.660 A lot of people just think they have to be a certain way or do a certain thing.

00:24:17.280 Like, Oh, I'm a country music singer.

00:24:18.340 I got to, huh?

00:24:19.460 You know, I better buy a Conestoga wagon, you know, I need a couple, I need a cowboy hat

00:24:26.060 now, you know, it's like, it's not, you know, I don't know.

00:24:28.340 They, I think they just really know they can, everybody has a really good way of sensing out

00:24:32.800 someone who's not, who's not being genuine.

00:24:35.580 Yeah.

00:24:36.140 Yeah.

00:24:36.460 I think authenticity is definitely becoming more and more of a commodity than it used

00:24:40.800 to be.

00:24:40.940 But you also have to be cool.

00:24:42.380 You have to be cool.

00:24:43.300 Your authentic self needs to be cool.

00:24:45.140 You know, like if you're, if you're not, then I guess you're just out of luck.

00:24:48.720 You know, like if you're just not a cool person, then.

00:24:50.860 Yeah. 1.00

00:24:51.100 You're like, damn, Larry's authentic as fuck. 1.00

00:24:53.100 But he's lame. 1.00

00:24:53.800 But he's lame as hell, dude. 0.99

00:24:56.160 Exactly. 0.95

00:24:57.200 So it's kind of like, if you don't, if you don't have both, then you're.

00:24:59.700 Yeah.

00:24:59.940 You got to have a certain amount of authenticity, dude.

00:25:02.420 I used to have this dude.

00:25:03.280 I used to work on this farm.

00:25:04.420 I worked on this cotton soybean farm and, and corn over near like Louisiana, Mississippi

00:25:09.600 border.

00:25:10.320 And we had this dude work with us, bro.

00:25:12.480 And they call him Raptor, right?

00:25:14.660 It's a nickname.

00:25:15.800 And not nicknamed after the truck.

00:25:17.420 No.

00:25:17.900 This was him first.

00:25:18.960 Yeah.

00:25:19.100 After the, the dinosaur.

00:25:21.020 Yeah.

00:25:21.520 Something, bro.

00:25:23.860 Something.

00:25:24.340 Who knows, man.

00:25:25.300 But he always used to be like, man, they named that truck after me.

00:25:27.900 I'm like, dude, they never, they don't know nothing about you, but you know, you got to

00:25:31.380 calm down a little.

00:25:32.580 Did he really think that?

00:25:33.560 Oh, he a hundred percent did.

00:25:34.940 But he would, uh, so one time, uh, they had a lot of tornadoes would come through there.

00:25:39.700 So you have to go lay in one of the ditches whenever, if you were out there working, like

00:25:42.680 we have to go lay in one of the ditches.

00:25:44.140 Right.

00:25:44.380 Like, so one day a bit pretty, there's a pretty good twister in the distance.

00:25:48.260 So we're scared, you know, so I run over, I lay in, he comes in behind me, lays right

00:25:52.360 on top of me, bro.

00:25:54.180 That's fine. 0.97

00:25:54.920 I guess it's fine for me, but it's just like, damn, dude, we must have 400 yards of ditch 0.98

00:25:59.720 and he'd lay right on top of me, man. 0.96

00:26:02.140 But he had this unique thing about him.

00:26:03.920 He used to go, after it would rain, he'd go take his shirt off and lay on the concrete,

00:26:07.600 bro.

00:26:07.900 And just let that, like a snake, you know, chest down.

00:26:10.980 Yeah.

00:26:11.200 Yeah.

00:26:11.360 Just let that heat get him, you know, just the heat coming off the concrete.

00:26:14.320 Was he cold-natured or something?

00:26:15.420 He might have been, man.

00:26:16.200 Yeah.

00:26:16.440 He was walking around shivering all day?

00:26:17.800 Yeah, he might have been, man.

00:26:19.700 I think he was definitely, he was a little bit shivering.

00:26:22.740 I'm sure when it came to school work, he made him shiver a little.

00:26:25.160 It sounds like it.

00:26:26.700 Here's a question right here from a young fella, man, who sent this in.

00:26:31.060 What's up, Theo?

00:26:31.760 What's up, Morgan?

00:26:33.540 Reporting live from France.

00:26:35.900 From France.

00:26:36.580 Just want to say big respect as a fellow mullet man or aspiring mullet man.

00:26:42.360 And my question was, Morgan, what is the craziest town you've performed in with the wildest

00:26:48.320 people, wildest crowd, gang gang, honky tonk?

00:26:52.980 I like that.

00:26:54.220 I like the gang gang honky tonk.

00:26:55.920 It's got a good ring to it, dude.

00:26:57.680 It's too bad, man.

00:26:59.380 Gang gang honky tonk from France. 0.95

00:27:01.480 Yeah, from France.

00:27:02.500 That's true, bro.

00:27:03.220 Dude, it's good to know we're about to take France over. 0.98

00:27:07.840 Hey, I'm on the way, dude.

00:27:09.280 I'm on the way.

00:27:11.040 The wildest place for me, I'm not even sure exactly what the town was called, but it was

00:27:15.680 in Canada.

00:27:17.100 It was a festival called Boots and Hearts.

00:27:19.200 It's somewhere outside of Toronto. 0.98

00:27:20.620 Damn, that sounds intense. 0.99

00:27:21.740 It does sound intense. 0.99

00:27:23.200 It sounds like a map on Call of Duty or something.

00:27:25.080 Was it in Calgary, maybe?

00:27:25.100 No, Toronto, you said.

00:27:27.120 Yeah, like right outside of Toronto, somewhere.

00:27:28.840 I don't know.

00:27:29.260 Within an hour.

00:27:29.860 But, dude, I wasn't even on the main stage.

00:27:36.020 I was like the headliner for the B stage or whatever.

00:27:39.100 It was last year, I guess.

00:27:40.700 And, dude, it was so loud.

00:27:45.240 I've never played a show that loud, and I've never just played for an audience that was

00:27:49.420 that, I don't know, rabid for the material and for just what we were up there doing.

00:27:53.640 I just felt such a gratitude.

00:27:56.240 They were hanging on to everything.

00:27:57.200 I mean, I played Whiskey Glasses, which I don't even know if it had became as big of

00:28:01.620 a hit as it turned out to be yet.

00:28:03.780 And after I played that song for 10 minutes, literally, maybe more, I just sit there, I

00:28:07.920 stood there, and they cheered, and it just kept getting louder.

00:28:11.380 It brought me to tears.

00:28:12.860 It was like, you could tell that they really connected to the music and to what I was doing

00:28:17.680 up there.

00:28:18.320 And that's a show that I'll never forget.

00:28:20.660 And to this day, I have never played a louder or routier show. 0.99

00:28:24.220 Damn. 0.98

00:28:25.580 I wonder what it was. 1.00

00:28:26.500 I don't know, man.

00:28:27.540 Canada's always been really good to me, actually.

00:28:29.280 Canada's amazing, dude.

00:28:30.280 Yeah.

00:28:30.920 You've been to Australia yet?

00:28:31.800 Yeah, they're amazing, too.

00:28:32.720 You went to Australia?

00:28:33.440 Yeah.

00:28:33.820 Dude, how great is Australia?

00:28:35.360 Dude, so far, those are the only two places I've been outside of the U.S.

00:28:38.140 I've only been to Australia and to Canada.

00:28:39.740 I haven't been to Europe yet.

00:28:40.660 I was going to go before Corona and all that stuff happened.

00:28:43.540 We were going to go this year.

00:28:44.560 But yeah, man, maybe it's because, I don't know, we don't get to go there as much.

00:28:50.040 They know that this might be a thing that doesn't happen as often.

00:28:53.120 Yeah, this might be it.

00:28:53.860 Yeah, maybe that's why. 0.80

00:28:55.600 And I'm not talking shit about American fans by any means because there's places that have 0.95

00:28:59.100 been close to as rowdy as that, you know. 0.98

00:29:01.520 But that one was just particularly just unreal.

00:29:04.640 That was it, huh?

00:29:05.300 Yeah.

00:29:06.620 Man, actually, I came on stage the other night here somewhere at the comedy club here, and

00:29:11.100 it was one of the craziest moments I'd had in a while.

00:29:13.660 Really?

00:29:13.820 I think, yeah, just for some reason.

00:29:15.920 It was just like a Monday new material night or something.

00:29:18.520 And I mean, I think they must have cheered for like a dang minute.

00:29:22.060 It was pretty crazy how much.

00:29:25.460 I think it goes back to what you're saying.

00:29:26.900 Some people just want to, they relate to you somehow and they want to see you, you know.

00:29:30.740 So it's tough as a performer for me, as a comedian, it's tough to try and feel like I can return

00:29:35.120 that from the stage, like return the emotion that people share with you.

00:29:38.680 Does it feel like that for you ever, or is it different with music?

00:29:42.780 Man, it just depends.

00:29:44.700 Like in that moment, I think they saw me.

00:29:46.400 I couldn't keep myself from crying.

00:29:48.860 Like it was that powerful.

00:29:50.200 It meant that much to me.

00:29:51.520 So I think that they felt that.

00:29:53.000 Yeah.

00:29:53.080 But in other moments, you know, there may be times where I may, I may be so focused on

00:29:56.960 what I'm doing or whatever that I may not even realize how much emotion they're giving.

00:30:00.300 You know, I'm so, I'm playing, you know, 75, 80 minutes, 90 minutes of songs.

00:30:04.300 I'm so focused in on that and feeling that, you know, I may, I may not even, I may bypass

00:30:09.320 some, something that they felt, they felt like they gave, gave me, you know.

00:30:12.340 Yeah.

00:30:12.520 I don't know that we're all ever on the same page, but like I do really try to, to pay attention

00:30:16.400 to, to what they're doing and, and, and let, and let them know that I appreciate it.

00:30:20.980 Every time I get on stage and, and, and once we get to get back on stage, I think it'll,

00:30:25.060 I'll even be more so likely to do it.

00:30:27.140 Yeah, man.

00:30:27.660 It's almost like you're waiting for, it's like this rocket ship just keeps just buzzing

00:30:31.400 around your house and that you just can't get on it, man.

00:30:33.760 Yeah.

00:30:34.180 I mean, you're on it, but you're just, you're still on the ground.

00:30:36.680 Yeah.

00:30:36.840 It has not launched by any means.

00:30:38.700 It's just.

00:30:39.820 I don't know.

00:30:40.520 Cause it's, it, a lot of artists are probably thinking, man, how am I going to make do,

00:30:44.360 how am I going to get, create an audience during quarantine?

00:30:48.000 Well, I was definitely concerned about that when it first happened.

00:30:51.720 I was, I was, I was concerned about a lot of things.

00:30:53.640 Like, how, am I going to be creative?

00:30:55.420 Because I really rely on other people to, to like inspire me, you know, like I really

00:30:59.940 like having conversations that inspire song titles or inspire just thoughts with other

00:31:05.020 people.

00:31:05.300 Cause I really do rely on that.

00:31:06.680 Um, so I didn't know how that was going to go.

00:31:09.800 Um, uh, you know, obviously I haven't really been, I haven't been quarantined as much as

00:31:14.960 some people have, but.

00:31:16.680 That's true.

00:31:17.020 Yeah.

00:31:17.200 You get a little more out and about, man.

00:31:19.600 Hey, every now and then a rabbit gets out the cage.

00:31:22.060 Hey, man, get a better lock.

00:31:23.800 Oh, dude.

00:31:24.620 Oh, man. 0.99

00:31:25.100 You scored more in Alabama than the volunteers have in a damn decade. 0.99

00:31:28.520 That's for sure, bro. 0.99

00:31:30.940 No doubt about that.

00:31:32.000 That, that, that, okay.

00:31:33.560 Go Vols, baby.

00:31:34.620 That's it, baby.

00:31:35.440 Go Vols.

00:31:37.680 Oh, they even need to put me on the squad.

00:31:39.900 Yeah, they do, bro.

00:31:42.120 You're about seven for seven from the, from what I've seen, bro.

00:31:46.420 But yeah, it's, it's, uh, I don't even know what we're talking about, man.

00:31:49.720 I don't either.

00:31:50.820 Oh, the rocket ship or, or.

00:31:52.540 Yeah, it's interesting because a lot of artists, I mean, for a lot of artists, it's like, like

00:31:56.600 all my friends, half of your friends probably, there's nothing they can do.

00:31:59.440 You know, at least, at least we have this, like this business is a business that's done

00:32:02.760 well throughout quarantine podcasting, you know, it's like, can still do it.

00:32:06.220 Um, but a lot of guys, yeah.

00:32:08.640 What can you guys can't go do anything?

00:32:10.640 No, man.

00:32:11.180 I mean, I've done a couple like private things, you know, just small top things where everybody

00:32:15.920 had to be tested and all that kind of stuff.

00:32:17.740 But, you know, you can only do so much of that and you can only have so many people.

00:32:20.820 And so that, that kind of something I had, that's something I haven't really been doing

00:32:24.300 as much lately.

00:32:24.820 I did that more towards the beginning, but, um, I, for me, I didn't, I didn't know.

00:32:29.160 And then like the whole TikTok thing started happening with my song.

00:32:31.720 So I just started trying to take advantage of it, you know, like, okay, well that song,

00:32:35.100 they really, they really responded to that song and I didn't even mean for it to happen.

00:32:38.840 So maybe I'll give them one on purpose now and see if, see if they'll start building up

00:32:41.680 every song the same way they did the first one.

00:32:43.240 And it seemed to be a really good strategy for me as far as leaking out, you know, demos

00:32:49.080 or whatever, which I've also learned don't leak, probably don't leak demos because people

00:32:53.480 get attached to the demos.

00:32:54.440 And if you change it in any sort of way, like towards the record, they'll be like, oh, you

00:32:58.240 should have left it this way.

00:32:59.040 You should have done this.

00:32:59.720 Why'd you put this instrument here?

00:33:01.480 You're like, okay, whoa.

00:33:02.980 I was just trying to see if you liked the song or not, man.

00:33:05.220 I didn't know you're my producer now, but, um, it's, it's been interesting to see the

00:33:09.800 power of just social media because I didn't really, I didn't appreciate it as much before

00:33:14.340 this.

00:33:15.080 Yeah.

00:33:15.560 Oh yeah.

00:33:16.040 It's interesting.

00:33:16.520 So you, you think that it definitely had something to do with helping your music grow throughout

00:33:19.860 this?

00:33:20.500 Yeah.

00:33:20.740 I mean, I don't know.

00:33:22.340 Obviously the music is the main thing that you need to have good songs, but as far as

00:33:27.260 promoting it goes, I don't know how else I would have done it at all.

00:33:30.880 Yeah.

00:33:31.200 I think people just hearing good stuff too, you know?

00:33:33.740 Um, I don't know.

00:33:34.860 It's a good question, man.

00:33:36.200 Yeah.

00:33:36.520 It's like how much, but yeah, little clips.

00:33:38.980 I mean, I think, you know, even you just probably meeting a strange women, I helped 0.95

00:33:44.400 it some probably, you know?

00:33:45.960 Well, yeah. 0.96

00:33:46.280 I mean, I'm just doing shit that normal people do. 0.98

00:33:48.360 Of course. 0.97

00:33:48.760 A hundred percent.

00:33:49.400 But of course I'm gonna get, I'm gonna get hate from, from people, you know, that, that

00:33:53.140 don't, don't, that wouldn't be doing that in the first place.

00:33:55.360 They couldn't be doing that.

00:33:56.420 Of course they ain't gonna like me doing that.

00:33:58.000 I get that.

00:33:58.640 That's fine.

00:33:59.620 I'm gonna get hate.

00:34:00.440 I would have got hate whether it's COVID or not for doing that.

00:34:02.620 You know?

00:34:02.800 Oh yeah.

00:34:03.060 People get jealous.

00:34:04.040 Yeah.

00:34:04.440 And I get that.

00:34:05.200 But for the most part, I'm just.

00:34:06.940 You still have to be alive.

00:34:08.040 I'm just living my life.

00:34:08.820 Yeah, what are you gonna do?

00:34:09.220 And how am I supposed to write songs if I don't live my life, first of all?

00:34:12.000 And, you know, obviously maybe I don't want videos or everything I'm doing, but I don't

00:34:16.900 know that I would change.

00:34:18.300 Change it.

00:34:18.700 Yeah.

00:34:19.960 Yeah.

00:34:20.860 Agreed, man.

00:34:22.680 There was a, you're outspoken about like, yeah, why can't we go touring?

00:34:26.400 And, and, you know, and it's time to, you know, to get people back on the road.

00:34:31.240 And, and I just want to hear, so people think, oh, just this artist can't go, but you have,

00:34:38.460 you affect the livelihoods of a lot of people, you know, and not you, any, any big performer

00:34:42.740 does.

00:34:42.940 Yeah.

00:34:43.060 And so who, how many, take me just through whose livelihoods you affect, like just so

00:34:48.080 people know who, you know, that it's not just you.

00:34:50.160 I don't even know if I can, I don't know if I can think of all of them.

00:34:53.660 I mean, I have, you know, my, my booking agency, my booking agent is one of my best friends.

00:34:58.560 You know, he, they make percentages of what I can go and make on the road, basically only

00:35:01.940 off the road.

00:35:02.720 So there's that.

00:35:03.740 Right.

00:35:04.660 I know, I know for a fact, my booking agency has had to fire and furlough a ton of people

00:35:10.120 just based off that.

00:35:12.000 Then, you know, I have my label, my management, you know, my label makes more money off my records.

00:35:16.920 So that doesn't affect them as much, even though we do get to promote our, you know,

00:35:20.180 whatever, nobody's starving there.

00:35:22.140 Right.

00:35:22.400 Nobody's starving there.

00:35:23.140 Yeah.

00:35:23.240 They're not firing anybody at the label.

00:35:25.060 But on stage with you.

00:35:26.420 But my, but you know, my management team, I have my tour manager, I have my assistant

00:35:30.540 tour manager, I have my band, I have my guitar techs, I have my stage manager, I have my

00:35:35.160 front of house guys.

00:35:36.220 I have all kinds of people who are getting the show together too.

00:35:40.260 Not to mention the local guys who are doing the, you know, every different town we go to,

00:35:43.780 there's a bunch of local people that rely on that income to make that happen.

00:35:47.800 But my guys, you know, like they all have families.

00:35:49.340 They all have people and I, I paid them for as long as I could, you know, I paid them

00:35:53.060 for months until, into all of this.

00:35:55.320 And then at some point I'm like, well guys, I, I'm not really bringing in nearly as much

00:35:59.000 money as I was.

00:35:59.640 So I can't continue to just keep dishing out money, you know?

00:36:02.360 Yeah.

00:36:02.980 And I wish that I was able to, but, and, and, and I know I get it.

00:36:07.360 Like those protests and all that stuff.

00:36:08.980 It's not, you don't sell tickets.

00:36:10.400 You're not doing all that stuff.

00:36:11.540 But I don't know.

00:36:14.640 There just seems to be no, it's just seems to me like it's a double standard.

00:36:17.760 They get praise for going to do that.

00:36:19.660 Right.

00:36:20.220 Oh yeah.

00:36:20.760 But we can't have a concert.

00:36:22.160 Yeah.

00:36:22.400 But God forbid we have a concert, you know?

00:36:23.900 Yeah.

00:36:24.080 But God forbid we do something that is all, that's going to make people feel good and

00:36:27.740 be excited and have a good time.

00:36:29.920 Yeah. 0.85

00:36:30.140 It's ridiculous. 0.98

00:36:30.720 It is. 0.96

00:36:31.260 And I, and I, I don't know, man.

00:36:32.800 It's important.

00:36:33.400 I think, but there should be some sort of a plan where it's like, let's lock up our

00:36:37.020 senior citizens and keep them safe.

00:36:39.300 And then people that want to make a choice to go have a good time can make that choice.

00:36:43.900 That's kind of, that's kind of what I've said from the beginning.

00:36:45.560 It's like, okay, well, if you're, if you're at risk or you think you're at risk, that's

00:36:49.600 fine.

00:36:50.100 You stay in and you get the stimulus package.

00:36:52.080 Sure.

00:36:52.620 You will take care of you.

00:36:54.000 Yeah.

00:36:54.140 You get it.

00:36:54.500 But everybody else who's young and healthy.

00:36:56.220 I know so many of my friends have had COVID and they're, it's not, I'm sure it's not fun,

00:37:01.080 but they're fine.

00:37:01.940 And I think people forget about immune systems.

00:37:05.760 I don't know if that's like, did that just, did that just disappear?

00:37:08.560 What happened to those?

00:37:09.520 Do we have those still?

00:37:10.700 I don't know.

00:37:11.600 I don't think we do.

00:37:12.840 If you wash your hands probably 40 times a day, you probably don't have an immune system

00:37:16.240 anymore.

00:37:17.700 But people forget about all of that.

00:37:19.180 I just, you know, and, and then if you really look at the numbers, I was, I was watching the

00:37:23.320 news last night and like Tennessee, like, they're like, oh, five people have died. 0.83

00:37:26.600 I'm like, well, that sucks. 0.74

00:37:28.500 Five people. 0.99

00:37:29.200 That is terrible.

00:37:30.200 Five people die every weekend in a runaway church van accident.

00:37:35.140 Let's be honest.

00:37:35.980 That's what I'm saying.

00:37:37.120 And like, if you listen to the numbers, like, oh, death, gee, gee.

00:37:40.400 Yeah.

00:37:40.640 It sounds scary, but I mean, God, why do they want us to be so scared?

00:37:45.660 You know, that's what makes me so skeptical.

00:37:47.680 Like, what are they trying to do?

00:37:48.800 Why do they want so much control?

00:37:50.140 Why, you know, I don't, I just don't like that.

00:37:52.180 And they, and they, no one mentions how many people are depressed and using drugs and using

00:37:56.860 alcohol because they can't provide for their family.

00:37:58.780 They can't do this.

00:37:59.400 And they're feeling like they're worthless because of this.

00:38:02.000 Yeah.

00:38:02.120 What about that?

00:38:02.640 Yeah.

00:38:02.860 I bet you there's more people committing suicide right now in Tennessee than there are dying

00:38:06.300 of COVID.

00:38:06.820 Yeah.

00:38:07.860 So.

00:38:09.060 Some guy wrote a note.

00:38:10.000 He died.

00:38:10.420 He killed himself.

00:38:10.980 He said, well, I wish I'd have had COVID.

00:38:12.700 That's what it said on it.

00:38:13.720 Are you serious?

00:38:14.440 He said, I just couldn't, I couldn't even, I tried to get it.

00:38:16.460 I couldn't. 0.97

00:38:16.820 But no, it's ridiculous, man.

00:38:20.380 And it just, cause I think at a certain point it starts to make me think, why can't I make

00:38:23.600 a choice for myself?

00:38:24.680 Like, let me make a choice.

00:38:26.120 I have with other flus.

00:38:27.280 I have with other things like, you know, I should be able to make a choice and we should

00:38:31.880 be able to hold on to pieces of our society that still make us feel good and that are

00:38:35.520 important.

00:38:35.880 Yeah.

00:38:36.040 And if like, obviously I don't want to contribute to no one's death or anything like that.

00:38:39.500 That's not the point I'm trying to, that's not what I'm trying to do.

00:38:41.720 I don't think anyone's trying to cause death, but you know, if we want to have a show,

00:38:45.400 all right.

00:38:45.700 If you're still that concerned about it, sign a waiver.

00:38:47.960 Yeah.

00:38:48.140 If you want to come, we'll all sign a waiver.

00:38:50.640 Yeah.

00:38:51.320 Simple as that.

00:38:52.060 I agree.

00:38:53.320 Put some responsibility on human beings, you know, cause it almost makes you feel like

00:38:57.540 is, I think, uh, is there any value in being, then what's the point of even being human

00:39:02.700 if I don't even get to make any choices?

00:39:05.300 I don't know.

00:39:07.060 That's what I'm trying to figure out too.

00:39:08.540 You know, how long is this going to last?

00:39:10.120 Yeah.

00:39:10.340 The rest of our lives.

00:39:11.200 Are you just going to continue?

00:39:12.060 Are we going to have to wear a mask forever?

00:39:13.340 I mean like, Oh God, there's a new COVID next year.

00:39:15.920 You know, COVID 20.

00:39:17.680 Yeah.

00:39:18.620 Is that what it's going to be?

00:39:19.920 I mean, I don't know.

00:39:21.080 They set us up perfectly for a lot of future COVIDs, man.

00:39:24.280 They did, man.

00:39:25.620 And it's just, no one likes to do any sort of research or look at data.

00:39:29.200 They just look at a headline and assume it's accurate.

00:39:33.400 And that's just, that's just not how you should be.

00:39:36.280 I don't think, I think you should do some stuff for yourself and educate yourself, you

00:39:39.680 know?

00:39:39.760 And I'm not claiming to be all knowing about COVID cause I'm not, but I've seen some data

00:39:45.200 that just makes me think I shouldn't be as scared as they think I am.

00:39:47.760 And I may die from COVID next week.

00:39:49.360 I don't know, but you know, God let's live.

00:39:53.320 Yeah.

00:39:53.580 Yeah.

00:39:53.880 Yeah.

00:39:54.000 Let's live, man.

00:39:54.840 Let's live.

00:39:55.340 That's another thing.

00:39:56.080 It's like, you know, my mom says, well, if I get it, I get it.

00:40:00.080 You know, it's like some people have like, they're not as scared.

00:40:03.180 You know, some people are just, they're holding so close onto their life.

00:40:05.800 Here's a white guy right here.

00:40:06.840 Just got back from the gym.

00:40:09.680 Watch him be like, Hey guys, I have COVID.

00:40:11.680 What's up, Morgan?

00:40:12.720 Huge fan of both of you guys.

00:40:14.760 My name is Morgan from PA.

00:40:16.440 And I was wondering, what's it like being two Southern boys that travel the country year round?

00:40:22.200 You know, where do you see the most cultural difference compared to where you're from?

00:40:27.500 Thanks guys.

00:40:28.140 Gang, gang.

00:40:30.660 Man, I don't know.

00:40:31.600 I think everywhere's a little different.

00:40:33.560 Don't you think?

00:40:34.580 Yeah, I think so.

00:40:35.200 I mean, New York to me, when I first went to New York city, that was the craziest thing

00:40:37.840 that ever happened to me.

00:40:38.580 I thought first, first place, first time I ever got on an airplane, I went to LA.

00:40:42.380 So that was pretty crazy.

00:40:43.200 Me too.

00:40:44.400 Hell yeah.

00:40:45.180 Yeah.

00:40:45.620 Me too, man.

00:40:46.240 It's all the palm trees and stuff.

00:40:47.660 You're leaving the airport.

00:40:48.600 It looks pretty cool.

00:40:49.340 It did look cool.

00:40:50.060 And I think I realized how, I guess, how much of a redneck I sound like when I get out

00:40:58.000 there.

00:40:58.320 Because everyone's like, where are you from?

00:41:04.700 Tennessee, man.

00:41:06.200 Dang, man.

00:41:06.820 I ain't never heard anybody talk like you before.

00:41:08.560 You know, it's like, you don't really think about how much difference in one country there

00:41:13.020 is.

00:41:13.580 Yeah.

00:41:13.960 And they get scared too if they hear a Southern accent. 0.59

00:41:15.860 Like, what are you, hey, spit on me, bro. 0.99

00:41:17.720 Are you racist? 1.00

00:41:18.660 Yeah. 0.99

00:41:19.560 What are you, racist man, huh? 0.98

00:41:21.140 What do you want? 0.99

00:41:21.840 You want a recipe?

00:41:22.920 What do you want?

00:41:23.600 Like, it's crazy stuff, man.

00:41:25.340 There's so many, like, I don't know, just stigmas about the South that are funny.

00:41:29.980 I know I'm sure some of them are true.

00:41:31.180 Oh, a lot of them I think are true, bro.

00:41:33.440 Pretty good, dude.

00:41:35.200 Bro, I'll tell you this.

00:41:36.820 The worst thing is, there is something funny, though. 0.99

00:41:39.820 The Southern accent, it's great, but it also sounds dumb sometimes. 0.98

00:41:43.880 It can. 0.97

00:41:44.360 It can really ruin it, because it's like, you can be the smartest person, you show up

00:41:47.480 with a Southern accent, and you don't get the same consideration.

00:41:51.060 No, you don't.

00:41:51.620 And I don't know where that came from, really.

00:41:54.400 I don't know why people correlated those two.

00:41:58.860 Do you?

00:41:58.920 Yeah, that's a good point.

00:41:59.620 I don't know why either.

00:42:00.860 Like, where did that come from?

00:42:01.960 Probably from, I guess, television, probably, is where you would see, you know, it was always

00:42:05.240 the, like, Southern, you know, the redneck-y kind of guy.

00:42:07.940 Yeah, and then rednecks, I've said this before a ton, is it's the last people they still let 1.00

00:42:12.340 you make fun of on television, you know?

00:42:14.140 True.

00:42:14.620 So.

00:42:15.400 I think we might always get made fun of.

00:42:17.180 Yeah.

00:42:17.280 That might just be part of it, but I don't, and I guess, you know, a lot of people from

00:42:21.360 the country and who you consider redneck don't have as much education, you know, as far

00:42:26.020 as book smart.

00:42:27.240 They may not be book smart, but they'll get your car back on the road, you know?

00:42:30.300 Yeah, dude.

00:42:30.960 Oh, they'll make cracklings.

00:42:32.160 Yeah.

00:42:32.860 You know?

00:42:33.540 Yeah.

00:42:33.820 Well, my sister, she's pretty country, and she's the happiest person I've known in my

00:42:39.560 whole life.

00:42:40.480 It's definitely a more simple way of living out there.

00:42:42.900 It is.

00:42:43.360 You know, I mean, you may be busy all the time.

00:42:45.160 You may be getting up at sunrise and going to bed at sundown, or, you know, not quitting

00:42:48.740 work until sundown, but it's just like, I don't know, there's not as much, I don't know,

00:42:53.600 pressure, it seems like, you know, to fit a certain mold.

00:42:57.180 Yeah, I was on a date the other day with this gal, and she said that they didn't live by anybody 0.90

00:43:02.140 growing up.

00:43:02.640 They lived in, like, rural Alabama, and she said, so the only guys that would come literally

00:43:06.120 were her cousins when they would come over, like, a couple times a year, so a couple of

00:43:10.080 her siblings got in, you know, trouble with the family for smooching on the cousins, but

00:43:14.440 it was the only people they saw.

00:43:15.500 What do you want me to do? 1.00

00:43:16.880 Damn, dude. 1.00

00:43:17.460 Come on, man. 1.00

00:43:18.880 How close are cousins we talking to?

00:43:20.600 I know, it's true.

00:43:21.700 But it's just interesting, man, when you have limited options, man.

00:43:26.860 That's pretty wild.

00:43:27.800 I didn't, I grew up, you know, decently rural, but not that, you know, I saw, you know,

00:43:32.620 I had a couple of family friends, you know.

00:43:36.660 Yeah, you got to wait for a family friend.

00:43:37.780 I don't think we were, we didn't have the same last name.

00:43:39.600 That's all I knew, baby.

00:43:40.500 I was in.

00:43:41.680 Dude, you got to at least wait for a tall trick-or-treater to show up, you know what I'm saying?

00:43:45.060 Like, come on.

00:43:47.720 Sean, let's pull up that question you played when you played for me earlier.

00:43:53.040 Hey, what's going on, fellas?

00:43:54.420 This is Jason coming to y'all from Who That Nation.

00:43:57.580 Had a big win over them Dirty Birds today.

00:44:01.280 Out here on these tugboats, keeping America moving.

00:44:04.440 Oh, hell yeah.

00:44:05.220 My question for Morgan Weiland is, if you could create a song with any artist, any genre,

00:44:10.540 past, present, future, who would it be and why?

00:44:14.860 Love everything y'all do, man.

00:44:17.120 Morgan, congrats on that CMA award.

00:44:19.460 Looking forward to that new double album release next year.

00:44:22.760 Y'all take it easy, man.

00:44:23.860 Gang, gang.

00:44:24.900 Gang, baby. 0.76

00:44:25.840 Hell yeah, man.

00:44:26.840 That's a good question.

00:44:27.880 Who would it be, you think, out of the past, even?

00:44:29.680 I don't think I've ever seen the inside of a tugboat before.

00:44:31.740 Pretty cool, huh?

00:44:32.660 Yeah, I wonder how far he's going.

00:44:34.380 That's pretty cool.

00:44:35.140 And dude, that job, you have to get born into it a lot of times.

00:44:37.600 If it's in Louisiana, I think the laws are that you have to get grandfathered into it,

00:44:41.900 literally.

00:44:42.420 Really?

00:44:42.520 Like your grandfather has to have done it like it's a family job.

00:44:45.340 Huh.

00:44:45.920 That's cool.

00:44:46.540 Pretty cool. 0.81

00:44:46.980 I mean, it sucks if you don't have a grandfather.

00:44:48.920 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.57

00:44:50.100 What about your grandma?

00:44:51.620 I don't know.

00:44:52.160 I mean, I'm sure. 0.99

00:44:52.660 I bet they got a couple of bad water bitches out there, man. 1.00

00:44:55.380 I bet they do, too. 0.99

00:44:56.660 I don't know.

00:44:57.540 But that's cool, man.

00:44:59.080 I've never seen that before.

00:45:00.140 Is there a guy, like, even on any place,

00:45:02.120 even 21 Savage, who would be somebody to be across?

00:45:04.660 That would be interesting.

00:45:05.860 Oh, well, an artist of any time, like past or present or future, like,

00:45:10.040 I don't know about the future, but the Eagles, man.

00:45:14.440 That's who I would pick.

00:45:15.240 I love the Eagles.

00:45:15.840 That's like, I don't know.

00:45:17.200 Their music just makes me feel at peace, you know?

00:45:20.200 Yeah.

00:45:20.480 And they always have.

00:45:20.960 I think probably because I grew up listening to them a lot,

00:45:23.500 and just their sound is so harmonious and beautiful.

00:45:26.660 I don't know.

00:45:26.960 I just love them.

00:45:27.540 I love, if I could do a song with the original Eagles,

00:45:30.760 that would definitely be who I'd pick. 0.99

00:45:32.780 Damn. 0.98

00:45:33.340 But if I could do a song, like, right now with somebody, 0.99

00:45:35.200 I want to do a song with Miley Cyrus.

00:45:37.180 Oh, really?

00:45:38.000 I love her voice, man.

00:45:39.340 Yeah.

00:45:39.700 She has an insane voice, and I just, you know,

00:45:42.140 she kind of just don't care either, and I like that.

00:45:43.900 Yeah.

00:45:45.020 What about Justin Bieber, man?

00:45:46.400 JB, you think you'd do something with him?

00:45:47.720 Yeah, I've always, you know.

00:45:49.340 I'm a big fan of his.

00:45:50.140 Yeah, me too.

00:45:50.720 I've never been on the side of, like, oh, this kid's a punk.

00:45:55.060 Look at him doing all this stuff.

00:45:56.420 You know, I'm like, this kid's, like, 15 years old getting thrown into the spot.

00:45:59.820 I'm 27 and not even close to the level of fame that he's on, 0.99

00:46:02.940 and I'm like, this shit's hard. 0.99

00:46:05.020 You know, it's like, dang, this is hard. 1.00

00:46:07.100 But this dude's 15 getting thrown into the pop world.

00:46:09.600 Yeah, the dude's eating now and laters and going to, like, 1.00

00:46:11.800 orgies with us and give him a break. 0.73

00:46:13.600 Yeah, dude.

00:46:15.320 Hey, I mean, I can't imagine that.

00:46:19.120 I really can't.

00:46:19.920 But so I've never been, and I've always kind of felt that for him.

00:46:23.180 Even before I, you know, had anything to do with music,

00:46:25.700 I was always like, dang, why don't people get off this dude's bag?

00:46:27.940 Yeah.

00:46:28.140 I mean, my God, he ain't killing nobody.

00:46:30.580 Yeah, he came actually to one of my shows in New York, actually, last year.

00:46:33.460 Him and Carl, a pastor buddy, he has Carl Lentz, who's also a friend.

00:46:39.000 I don't know JB as well, but I've met him a couple of times just through church and stuff.

00:46:43.600 And he's a neat kid.

00:46:45.700 But, yeah, he went through it, man.

00:46:47.200 I mean, he went through hell, you know.

00:46:49.700 And he's finally, like, really getting back on his feet.

00:46:51.860 And that On God track that he did is really good.

00:46:54.100 Man, I think, I've always thought he was a talented, uniquely, like, top-level talent.

00:47:00.280 Yeah.

00:47:00.820 From day one since I heard him.

00:47:02.240 Canadian, bro.

00:47:03.220 Yeah.

00:47:03.780 Something up there, man.

00:47:04.780 I'm telling you, man.

00:47:05.480 Drake, Shania Twain.

00:47:06.760 Oh, Shania Twain.

00:47:07.860 Remember her?

00:47:08.440 Yeah.

00:47:08.800 You ever meet her?

00:47:09.540 No.

00:47:10.220 Oh, you got to slide into her DMs, man.

00:47:11.960 Hey.

00:47:12.680 I wonder how old she is now.

00:47:14.980 I don't know.

00:47:16.040 She's probably young enough.

00:47:17.280 Not too old.

00:47:18.060 Yeah, she's still Shania Twain, man.

00:47:19.600 Yeah, that's all that matters.

00:47:20.760 Kick, turn, stomp, stomp, man.

00:47:22.860 She's breathing, baby.

00:47:23.840 Oh, dude.

00:47:25.280 She's beautiful, man.

00:47:26.560 Oh, she is, dude.

00:47:27.340 She really is.

00:47:29.000 But, no, JB, I'm definitely a fan of his.

00:47:31.480 Yeah.

00:47:32.140 That'd be interesting.

00:47:33.760 Speaking of other artists, what's this question right here, Sean?

00:47:37.060 Yo, what's up, Theo?

00:47:38.460 What's up, Morgan?

00:47:42.140 Which one?

00:47:43.460 Johnny Cash?

00:47:44.980 Hank Williams?

00:47:49.340 Merle?

00:47:50.880 Let me know.

00:47:52.520 Gang, gang.

00:47:53.740 Man, that's super.

00:47:55.000 That's a tough one.

00:47:55.120 That's very tough.

00:47:56.000 But I think Johnny Cash, for me.

00:47:57.340 Yeah.

00:47:57.620 I just, I've always liked his music a little better.

00:47:59.820 You guys probably have good stories to tell, too, probably.

00:48:01.980 I'd say so.

00:48:02.800 You know?

00:48:03.220 I wish I could hear something.

00:48:04.300 He's Johnny Cash.

00:48:04.980 You're like Johnny Credit.

00:48:07.980 I don't know if that's a compliment or a compliment.

00:48:09.460 It is a compliment.

00:48:10.240 I just mean, because of the change of times.

00:48:11.540 No, I know.

00:48:12.060 Yeah, it's not that.

00:48:14.480 Somebody's Johnny Check, the next guy.

00:48:17.980 Yeah, yeah.

00:48:18.440 If you were Latino, you'd be Johnny De Niro, you know? 1.00

00:48:20.520 So, it's just totally, yeah. 0.84

00:48:22.060 No, I'm sure he's got some crazy ones to tell, man.

00:48:25.900 But I do love his music.

00:48:27.180 I even love some of the music that he put out, like, when he was getting older.

00:48:30.280 Yeah.

00:48:30.500 He just always had a really knack for songs and, obviously, just being somebody who's

00:48:35.820 a, I don't even know how to describe that guy.

00:48:38.720 That guy's just larger than life, you know?

00:48:41.660 Yeah.

00:48:42.600 When he also got to, like, you had that video recently.

00:48:45.940 You guys just put out a video.

00:48:46.820 It's almost like a short movie, and it's, like, there's some acting in it by you, kind

00:48:51.120 of.

00:48:51.320 Yeah.

00:48:52.140 Did you feel kind of brave doing that?

00:48:53.820 Did you feel like, I thought you did a good job, man.

00:48:55.620 Oh, thanks.

00:48:56.140 Thanks.

00:48:56.620 Did you feel pretty comfortable with it?

00:48:59.040 I did, actually.

00:49:00.360 Yeah.

00:49:00.520 I really enjoyed it, you know?

00:49:02.800 I've always kind of, not always, just in the past couple years, I've thought about doing

00:49:06.880 a little bit of acting in my music videos, you know?

00:49:08.720 So, and this one seemed like, we've kind of made it to a point to where we can, you know,

00:49:13.760 we have a little bit more leeway and a little more budget for our films and, you know, that

00:49:18.260 kind of thing.

00:49:18.800 So, me and my manager just decided this, we can do it on this one, and, you know, came

00:49:24.100 up with the treatment with my director, and I was asking the girl, the actress that was

00:49:30.400 with me, I'm like, you know, because she's, like, been in some legit stuff, I guess, you

00:49:33.860 know, like Netflix and all that kind of stuff, and I was, you know, hey, how am I

00:49:37.240 doing, how am I doing all right?

00:49:39.060 Am I like, are you feeling all right, you know, with this?

00:49:40.880 And she's like, yeah, you seem like you feel comfortable.

00:49:44.660 So, I don't know, I didn't have to, it's not like I was doing a whole, like, I wasn't

00:49:48.740 really acting, I wasn't, like, having to change my accent, or.

00:49:51.880 But you were being yourself, but it's hard to be, it's really hard to be yourself, it's

00:49:54.780 hard to not do a lot.

00:49:56.020 It is, I think that's the secret, it's like, you know, you got, that camera's there, so

00:50:00.420 it makes you want to perform, but you, and you do want to perform, but at the same

00:50:03.500 time, you want to, I don't know, pretend, I don't know, it's weird, I don't

00:50:06.860 even know how to describe it, it's like, the camera's there, but it's not, I don't

00:50:09.440 know.

00:50:09.980 Yeah.

00:50:10.300 I tried my best to just be normal.

00:50:12.840 I think you did a great job, man.

00:50:13.800 How talented are you, do you think, man?

00:50:16.240 I don't know, I had a meeting with a director for a possible movie for next year, so I'm

00:50:23.560 going to, a decent role in the movie, so, I don't, that doesn't mean that I got the

00:50:29.580 role, but I think they're at least somewhat interested, so I will see, I don't know, as

00:50:33.500 far, do you mean how talented I am as an actor?

00:50:35.380 No, I just think overall, you know, what else, what are you going to, what else can

00:50:39.560 you do, can you swim?

00:50:40.740 I can swim.

00:50:41.400 Can you really?

00:50:42.000 Yeah, I like swimming. 0.99

00:50:42.840 Damn. 0.99

00:50:43.380 Yeah, can you not swim? 0.99

00:50:44.560 I mean, I'm not, I wouldn't say I'm great, you know, I can handle the rain, I just can't

00:50:48.400 handle like a, if it gets.

00:50:50.120 You can handle a puddle.

00:50:50.960 I can handle them, yeah.

00:50:53.260 If the levee breaks, you ain't doing too well.

00:50:55.840 If the levee breaks, yeah, it's going to be risque, baby, if the levee breaks. 0.88

00:50:59.080 You just had a song that hit number one on the charts, right?

00:51:01.880 Yeah, I guess today is like the official day of it.

00:51:04.700 And who wrote it with you?

00:51:06.100 It was me, Charlie Handsome, Ernest Smith, and Michael Hardy.

00:51:11.000 Let's see if, let's see if we can get those guys in here. 0.51

00:51:13.860 We got Ernest and Hardy going to be here.

00:51:16.100 Are they here?

00:51:33.440 Had a couple issues, invested in something bad, a bad deal.

00:55:17.160 I know where it was. 0.98

00:55:18.620 Damn, how old was she? 1.00

00:55:19.960 Lee Ellen. 0.99

00:55:21.660 She was my age, believe it or not.

00:55:25.040 Lee Eldon.

00:55:25.520 I think it was Lee Ellen was her name.

00:55:27.800 Ellen.

00:55:28.220 I never.

00:55:28.720 You know what's funny is like they always called her Lee Ellen and I never noticed that

00:55:32.740 Ellen is in her name.

00:55:34.780 Like, I don't know.

00:55:36.180 That sounds crazy, but I always just saw it as Lee Ellen.

00:55:39.660 Now that I think about it, like Ellen is a part of Lee Ellen and Ellen is definitely an

00:55:43.980 older lady's name, but no, she was probably, we were probably like 13 or 14 and we were

00:55:48.520 at my, my family has like a, you got a late start on life.

00:55:52.860 Yeah, man.

00:55:53.540 What was you doing before that, bro?

00:55:55.700 Just looking around, bro?

00:55:57.800 Killing hogs. 1.00

00:55:58.760 I probably, dude, I was, I was like 13.

00:56:00.960 Is that a late start?

00:56:02.060 I feel like it's pretty late.

00:56:03.460 I don't know.

00:56:03.520 I went to the Church of Christ where we started at about seven or eight.

00:56:07.120 If you're Morgan Wallen, that's a late start, okay?

00:56:09.480 Yeah.

00:56:10.640 That's true.

00:56:11.520 I got to think about what company I'm in right now.

00:56:13.520 Babysitter, huh?

00:56:14.360 Yeah.

00:56:14.700 I don't remember how old I was.

00:56:15.700 She was probably like 12. 1.00

00:56:16.520 I was probably like seven.

00:56:17.520 What was her name?

00:56:18.120 You remember?

00:56:18.620 No.

00:56:19.500 I don't remember at all. 0.99

00:56:20.260 That's kind of fucked up on her part. 0.99

00:56:21.140 That's heartless. 0.99

00:56:21.900 Yeah, she was, she, I was 12, 13, basically.

00:56:23.300 It's also heartless of Morgan not to remember her name.

00:56:25.280 I mean, I don't know if I was making out with her, but I kissed her. 0.97

00:56:28.960 I'm sure I slept.

00:56:30.040 Did you like, did you put the moves on her or was it like a cute thing? 0.92

00:56:33.440 I don't know, dude.

00:56:34.420 I just remember.

00:56:35.320 I'm sure you were like.

00:56:36.020 I was drunk.

00:56:36.540 I don't remember.

00:56:37.660 I was seven.

00:56:38.700 That was 20 years ago.

00:56:40.040 Bro, just look on Snapchat.

00:56:41.240 Snapchat, you'll find it, man.

00:56:42.200 Yes, that was that.

00:56:42.760 That's where you'll know what happens.

00:56:44.880 TikTok.

00:56:45.800 Morgan Wallen kissing his babysitter on TikTok.

00:56:48.380 What did Morgan Wallen do in his babysitter's kitchen?

00:56:50.480 I have no idea.

00:56:52.020 I need a babysitter now. 0.87

00:56:53.940 Yeah, you do.

00:56:54.740 Now you need it back.

00:56:56.060 Actually, she's here today.

00:56:57.080 Rebecca, come on in, man.

00:56:58.740 That would be perfect.

00:57:00.860 What about you, Ernest?

00:57:02.500 Man, my first kiss, it probably was like kindergarten.

00:57:07.520 I don't know, do your hands up here.

00:57:09.040 I was going to cross them.

00:57:10.220 I'm good, dude.

00:57:10.900 I'm good.

00:57:11.300 I'm good.

00:57:11.600 I'm good.

00:57:11.880 I'm right here.

00:57:12.320 I was like kindergarten.

00:57:14.600 This girl, this girl, I think Virginia Bain Burkhart, I believe is her name.

00:57:19.500 Shout out Virginia Bain. 1.00

00:57:21.140 I knew it, dude.

00:57:21.740 I think it's her name.

00:57:22.720 He rambles out her full name.

00:57:24.180 I know that my mom tells this story because she picked me up from school that day. 0.99

00:57:28.820 My little preschool ass jogging down the steps. 0.93

00:57:31.100 Mom's there and she said, how was your day at school? 1.00

00:57:33.840 I said, I'm going to marry that girl in the pink panties. 1.00

00:57:36.440 So I don't know how I knew that, but that was a true story.

00:57:40.700 My mom tells me, she said, and I didn't marry, I didn't end up marrying that girl.

00:57:45.000 My wife was wearing white panties. 1.00

00:57:46.460 My wife was wearing white panties, yeah. 1.00

00:57:48.980 Yeah, I don't know.

00:57:50.160 That was a rough one.

00:57:51.480 Dude, we had this girl in my neighborhood and she used to wear V-neck T-shirts, her dad's, 0.99

00:57:55.500 right?

00:57:55.840 They was Italian, brother.

00:57:56.900 They was fully Italian.

00:57:57.840 And I remember she drew breasts. 0.55

00:58:01.700 We were children, bro. 0.99

00:58:03.080 She drew tits on her chest with a marker. 1.00

00:58:06.940 Oh my God. 1.00

00:58:07.600 And let me kind of feel on them a little bit.

00:58:10.480 Yes, dude.

00:58:11.140 How old do you think you were then?

00:58:13.380 I hope I was 11.

00:58:14.640 Were you old enough to get a little? 0.98

00:58:15.600 Did you get a little blood flow from the sharpening tits? 1.00

00:58:19.320 Bro, the sad thing was, my butt, I think I might have. 0.99

00:58:24.460 And look, dude, I remember she drew them too small at first, so then she drew them bigger. 0.96

00:58:29.800 Her first breast augmentation was with a sharpie. 1.00

00:58:34.180 That's funny as hell.

00:58:34.860 That was a bad sign for her future. 0.97

00:58:36.560 I know that. 1.00

00:58:37.540 Like, damn. 0.99

00:58:38.120 She's doing now. 1.00

00:58:38.880 She's a sorority.

00:58:39.920 She's had four since then.

00:58:42.020 She actually almost looked like she had the same haircut as Morgan, which is crazy.

00:58:45.460 Yeah.

00:58:46.300 That's a true story, man.

00:58:47.600 Oh my God.

00:58:48.100 And her brother used to make us come over and play in a bathtub, and he was kind of more

00:58:51.320 of a, you know, I think he preferred the company of men, really.

00:58:54.120 And he had us come over there, and we would play ship captain.

00:58:57.620 And we would all be in there at a pretty decent bathtub, and we'd be in there.

00:59:00.380 He'd be on the side yelling stuff at us like it was the Marines or something.

00:59:03.220 But it was, it'd be illegal now, I think, to do that.

00:59:06.020 Yeah.

00:59:06.740 You know?

00:59:07.300 It's a different time.

00:59:09.600 Do you guys, is there another song you guys have written?

00:59:11.640 I mean, I know you guys are writing a lot of stuff together, and especially on the new

00:59:14.420 album.

00:59:15.000 You have a bunch of the songs on the new album, right, Earn?

00:59:17.200 Yeah, I think me and Hardy both do a good bit of them.

00:59:19.960 We haven't, we wrote This Bar together.

00:59:22.120 Another song that's on there.

00:59:22.500 Yeah, we do.

00:59:24.460 And then we have this other one on there.

00:59:26.440 What is it?

00:59:27.020 Something Country?

00:59:27.780 Yeah.

00:59:28.200 Oh, yeah.

00:59:29.120 Oh, yeah.

00:59:29.460 I forgot we wrote that together, too.

00:59:30.900 Yeah.

00:59:31.380 So what?

00:59:32.200 I forgot we wrote, I forgot when we wrote that.

00:59:34.220 We wrote that, like, 30 minutes.

00:59:35.540 Yeah, like a long, actually a lot of the cuts we had together are, like, I don't know which

00:59:41.420 one the oldest one is, but they're, like, either more than my hometown or Something Country

00:59:45.860 is, like, close to three years old.

00:59:47.740 I think Something Country is probably the oldest.

00:59:49.640 Something Country was first, then Hometown, and then this bar a few weeks later, I think.

00:59:53.200 That's wild.

00:59:53.720 And if, you said it's three years harder to get it out, does it usually take something

00:59:57.420 that long to come out?

00:59:58.260 It takes a while?

00:59:58.900 It's all different.

00:59:59.880 Like, you never know.

01:00:01.380 This one is, like, three years.

01:00:03.500 I just had a number one on a guy named Jameson Rogers.

01:00:05.840 It took, like, almost six years from the time we wrote it, but then I've had, like, songs

01:00:11.700 go that, like, God's Country went from farm to table, meaning, like, created to number

01:00:18.220 one in, like, two months.

01:00:20.320 Maybe two months.

01:00:21.400 That's insane.

01:00:21.720 That was, like, a record, wasn't it?

01:00:22.660 I don't know if that's ever happened.

01:00:23.540 Either that, I heard that Lights Come On was a Jason Aldean song, and a bunch of people

01:00:28.560 wrote it, but my buddy, Jordan Schmidt, all of our buddies, Jordan Schmidt, said that they

01:00:33.520 wrote it on, like, a Monday, and two weeks later, it was on the radio, and it was, like,

01:00:37.500 a world to be heard of.

01:00:39.320 That's wild.

01:00:40.320 And when you guys write...

01:00:41.320 That doesn't happen often.

01:00:42.000 So, you guys, will you guys get together with Morgan and have a special time where y'all

01:00:45.940 are sitting all there together?

01:00:47.600 Is it just kind of something that happens in the flow of y'all's friendship these days,

01:00:51.060 or how does that kind of work?

01:00:53.220 The last time we...

01:00:54.060 I don't even know the last time us three wrote a song together.

01:00:56.180 No, it's been a while.

01:00:57.120 I've really been writing with Earn more, because he's been doing his artist thing.

01:01:00.380 You know, like, we've had more stuff that we've had to do for ourselves, I guess, me

01:01:04.260 and Hardy, but...

01:01:05.260 And Earn's artist thing's coming on, too.

01:01:08.200 So, hopefully, we don't all just get separated, but I don't think we will.

01:01:12.620 Earn's got a lot going on.

01:01:13.500 I see on his Instagram he's also pitching baseball at a junior college.

01:01:16.140 Hey, I'm getting my arm back, dude, for no good reason, dude.

01:01:19.920 Like, literally, I just...

01:01:21.560 We were all playing in this grown man softball league, and it did not get my itch, bro, because

01:01:26.120 I was like, all right, I'm going to pitch, because I've always been a pitcher.

01:01:28.600 And I'm just lobbing softballs up there, dude, and they're raking the ball.

01:01:32.200 And it's like, what am I going to do to try to throw a...

01:01:34.120 Dude, I think I did one night...

01:01:35.740 He did throw a fastball.

01:01:36.600 I was like, we're about to get in a fight.

01:01:38.080 Some dude hit a bomb.

01:01:40.400 I was so pissed off, I just threw one overhand high up the backstop behind him.

01:01:44.740 On his next at bat.

01:01:45.920 I wasn't there that game.

01:01:46.920 Yeah.

01:01:47.880 Dude, I started...

01:01:48.880 Dude, when you did that, dude, my peripherals went... 0.98

01:01:51.340 And I literally just started thinking, like, all right, who's the closest motherfucker to me? 0.96

01:01:55.180 Dude, because I'm going to have... 0.98

01:01:56.180 I was like, I've got to go throw a fastball. 0.99

01:01:58.060 No real baseball, because this underhand shit ain't cutting it for me. 0.99

01:02:00.760 So I picked up the glove. 0.99

01:02:02.200 I felt like Dennis Quaid and the rookie, dude.

01:02:04.420 I'm out there in the rain at night throwing past the speedometer.

01:02:08.480 But no, I go to Lipscomb University.

01:02:10.800 I went to David Lipscomb High School, K-12, and it's a college on the same campus. 0.99

01:02:14.480 Damn. 0.98

01:02:14.880 And played baseball or whatever all the way through my freshman year of college. 0.99

01:02:19.660 Haven't thrown in, like, six years.

01:02:21.880 Softball happened.

01:02:22.640 I was like, all right, I'm going to pick up a glove and go throw again.

01:02:24.600 So I hit the Lipscomb coach up.

01:02:26.420 We keep up on Instagram.

01:02:28.400 I was like, hey, can I come by?

01:02:29.880 He was like, yeah, come on this week.

01:02:31.140 It's beautiful.

01:02:31.680 We're doing just...

01:02:32.720 We're having, like, a field day or whatever.

01:02:34.440 So I come out, throw a bullpen, and I was sitting at, like, 80, which was great for not throwing in six years. 0.98

01:02:41.080 I was like, damn, I got the bug. 0.97

01:02:42.420 I ordered a glove. 1.00

01:02:43.660 I'm back out throwing, doing stretches and shit. 0.97

01:02:45.960 Dude, I'd love to see you out there, man. 0.96

01:02:47.780 Yeah, still way out of shape, but...

01:02:49.680 You'll make it, bro.

01:02:50.580 Still got an arm.

01:02:51.720 Still got an arm. 1.00

01:02:52.340 Oh, shit. 1.00

01:02:53.020 And if not, you could do softball, I bet. 1.00

01:02:55.520 Yeah.

01:02:55.860 They'd get you in there. 1.00

01:02:56.520 Dude, we had a blast doing that shit this fall. 0.99

01:02:58.620 I know we all kind of miss games here and there, but it was fun. 0.99

01:03:01.760 Was it...

01:03:02.480 And would you guys just play against, too?

01:03:04.100 Like, because I was on a group for a little bit with a couple of...

01:03:06.240 I was playing with this Chinese restaurant, but we got shut down. 1.00

01:03:09.060 Oh, shit. 0.99

01:03:09.720 Half our team got COVID, actually. 1.00

01:03:11.280 Or said they did. 1.00

01:03:12.320 I think some of them had some family issues going on, but yeah, we had all kind of shit. 0.99

01:03:16.880 I think there was a fire, too. 0.99

01:03:17.880 One of the places burned down that one of them was working at, but... 0.99

01:03:20.240 Damn. 0.99

01:03:21.240 Wasn't meant to be for that. 1.00

01:03:22.460 No, it was not.

01:03:23.600 It fell apart, dude.

01:03:24.480 God wasn't with you.

01:03:24.680 I was the tallest guy on the team, man.

01:03:26.520 They would call me Godzilla, they kept calling me.

01:03:29.120 Bryce Harper.

01:03:29.680 It's crazy, bro.

01:03:29.980 Bryce Harper over here.

01:03:30.920 Yeah, dude, yeah.

01:03:32.540 We had cocaine first, baby. 0.63

01:03:36.240 What were we even talking about, man?

01:03:38.460 Something about softball.

01:03:39.260 Oh, yeah.

01:03:39.860 Oh, yeah.

01:03:40.360 So, who did you guys play? 0.99

01:03:41.600 Like, a damn seafood restaurant? 0.99

01:03:43.060 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1.00

01:03:43.720 Like, there was a group of guys that, like, did...

01:03:45.640 They were building the airport.

01:03:48.160 Like, the Adon.

01:03:49.120 So, they were part of a big construction crew.

01:03:51.540 That's the only one that I know.

01:03:52.680 There's a couple of hardcore serious, like, softball teams.

01:03:54.920 Oh, yeah.

01:03:55.560 One of those teams.

01:03:56.060 And then just a group of friends and stuff.

01:03:57.960 They had a third base coach who was, like, 55.

01:04:01.400 Randy Marsh on South Park, when he's, like, yelling at the kids and the whole fighting

01:04:06.160 thing, it was, like, exactly like that.

01:04:07.860 I definitely wasn't there for that.

01:04:08.980 The most serious guy there. 1.00

01:04:10.520 He had his cargo shorts on, tucked in, had a fucking... 1.00

01:04:14.060 Had his sheet with him. 0.99

01:04:15.300 They were, like, giving signs and stuff.

01:04:16.420 He's standing on third base.

01:04:17.340 He goes, you got the round second with your head on.

01:04:19.900 Not being...

01:04:20.540 Not like a character, though.

01:04:21.740 I'm like, dog.

01:04:22.120 He was being serious.

01:04:22.640 He was dead serious.

01:04:24.440 No, he was being dead serious.

01:04:24.840 And we were like, bro. 0.75

01:04:25.600 Somebody should have ripped him with a foul ball. 1.00

01:04:27.360 Damn, bro. 1.00

01:04:28.640 Dude. 1.00

01:04:28.840 This shit sounds too intense. 1.00

01:04:30.120 Made a softball. 1.00

01:04:31.060 We were just trying to have fun, but...

01:04:32.760 Blast.

01:04:33.800 A lot of grown men go to softball to get that last, whatever it is in their life, out of

01:04:37.840 their system, whether it's trying to hit a home or whether it's trying to pick a fight,

01:04:41.020 whether it's trying to, you know, do whatever they gotta do.

01:04:44.020 They bring it out there to that field and they do it one last time.

01:04:46.440 Yeah.

01:04:46.760 You know?

01:04:47.100 There's some good...

01:04:47.700 I didn't realize how competitive it is.

01:04:50.060 Oh.

01:04:50.540 And even the teams...

01:04:51.360 There were some teams that we played that were, like, really, really good.

01:04:55.040 What was y'all's team name?

01:04:56.700 The Recoupables.

01:04:57.840 The Recoupables.

01:04:58.920 Yeah.

01:04:59.200 Oh, because you have to recoup on your album?

01:05:00.980 Yeah.

01:05:01.220 We were all...

01:05:02.060 Every one of... 1.00

01:05:02.640 Every person on the fucking team was an artist. 1.00

01:05:04.720 Yeah. 1.00

01:05:04.940 Basically.

01:05:05.360 We'd never been able to do it if we were all on tour, so it was like, hell yeah, every

01:05:08.560 Monday night, we're running it.

01:05:10.080 That's awesome.

01:05:10.380 I wonder if they do a spring...

01:05:11.500 We should do a spring one, too.

01:05:11.900 They do.

01:05:12.360 They do.

01:05:12.760 We talked about it.

01:05:14.260 I mean, I highly doubt it.

01:05:15.140 I'm moving up to men's league baseball, dog.

01:05:17.740 Y'all...

01:05:18.020 Well...

01:05:18.320 I'm gonna stay down to softball.

01:05:19.420 Yeah.

01:05:19.960 I'm trying to strike some folks out.

01:05:21.520 We'll see about that, Aaron.

01:05:22.620 You know what I'm saying? 1.00

01:05:23.280 It's a fucking hitter, man. 1.00

01:05:24.620 It will. 1.00

01:05:25.260 You're damn right we'll see about it.

01:05:26.440 Yeah, okay.

01:05:27.380 I like your dreams, man, but we'll see about it.

01:05:31.260 Back in 82, I could throw a pigskin quarter to my...

01:05:33.360 Quarter to my...

01:05:33.720 Could you really?

01:05:34.360 No.

01:05:34.700 That was just an Uncle Rico quote from the point of that.

01:05:36.120 Oh, yeah.

01:05:36.580 Oh, I know that, but I thought you also could.

01:05:38.260 No, no.

01:05:38.900 82, I was about 10 years before being thought of. 0.99

01:05:41.760 Damn, that's crazy. 0.99

01:05:42.800 82. 1.00

01:05:43.600 That's right.

01:05:43.820 Dude, we had a guy that used to...

01:05:45.780 We had a one-armed guy that played quarterback in our high school, and he played backup quarterback,

01:05:52.460 and he got in for a couple games, and, dude, he could fling it.

01:05:56.120 What's he do about the hike situation?

01:05:57.520 He'd fling it just like a name.

01:05:58.220 Shotgun only, and then...

01:05:59.360 Oh, yeah.

01:06:00.320 No, he could do handoffs.

01:06:01.480 You think if you run the Heisman, would they get him into a different trophy?

01:06:05.800 Because of the pose?

01:06:06.640 That's a good question.

01:06:07.560 I don't know.

01:06:09.180 I think they'd have to.

01:06:10.200 These days, you'd have to, to be correct.

01:06:11.840 Oh, yeah, definitely.

01:06:13.160 But he used to...

01:06:13.840 He would do this trick sometimes.

01:06:15.020 If people didn't know, he would pretend like the running back stole his arm, and he'd run

01:06:17.920 around and be like, he took my arm, you know?

01:06:19.920 Did he wear a fake arm?

01:06:21.600 Huh?

01:06:21.860 No, he didn't.

01:06:22.480 Sometimes he would for like a dance or something, a school dance, but he wouldn't bring it

01:06:26.080 out.

01:06:26.180 But not football, no.

01:06:26.940 Yeah, not for like a Tuesday or Wednesday, yeah.

01:06:29.380 Dance is more important than the Friday night game.

01:06:31.900 Oh, dude, his dad would, you know, come home early from work and hook that fake arm on him

01:06:35.400 for the dance, you know?

01:06:36.960 A school dance.

01:06:38.200 So the neighbor's dad's tying a tie for his kid, and this dude's sticking an arm on there

01:06:42.580 for him.

01:06:43.000 Yeah, he's hammering it in from the side.

01:06:45.360 Dude, we had a guy in our neighborhood, the dad was an Elvis impersonator, and so, but

01:06:50.560 we didn't even need an Elvis. 0.98

01:06:51.460 We live in a small town, we don't need a damn Elvis, you know what I'm saying? 0.96

01:06:53.820 It's only 400 people, you know what I'm saying? 1.00

01:06:55.460 Nobody needs an Elvis, this guy's an alcoholic.

01:06:58.280 That's a good excuse for an alcoholic.

01:06:59.860 Probably does a pretty good Elvis.

01:07:01.900 Yeah, probably does a pretty good Elvis.

01:07:03.360 Probably got a pretty good Elvis.

01:07:04.680 But he made his son a wooden shirt one time for Christmas.

01:07:09.080 Made him a shirt out of plywood and teak, a little bit of teak on the sides.

01:07:12.580 That's a crackhead gift. 1.00

01:07:15.580 Holy shit. 1.00

01:07:16.560 I went over there, dude, we came back from church on Wednesday night, and I went over 0.99

01:07:19.440 there, and he's making it in the garage, and he's hammering it.

01:07:21.660 And I came over there and held the side of him, and he nailed his son into it.

01:07:24.300 Did you ask him, what are you doing?

01:07:25.500 What are you making?

01:07:26.200 He said he's making a shirt, I do it.

01:07:28.060 You could tell, it wasn't bad.

01:07:29.220 Was it like, was it contoured and stuff, or was it just a piece of...

01:07:32.660 No, it was flat front.

01:07:34.140 Oh my God, dude.

01:07:35.520 Look, you want to pleat it, man.

01:07:37.100 That's hardy, bro.

01:07:37.820 He just wants to, you know, he wants to go that extra mile.

01:07:39.800 I do respect that, man.

01:07:41.200 That pleated plywood.

01:07:42.320 Do you have a little shape?

01:07:44.620 That's what it's all, man.

01:07:46.520 You got a pocket I can put my dip in?

01:07:47.660 That's a shirt that's a shield, bro.

01:07:49.740 I'm going to say it's redneck Kevlar. 1.00

01:07:53.220 Lumberjack Kevlar.

01:07:54.380 Yeah, for BB guns.

01:07:55.540 Yeah, right. 1.00

01:07:57.020 Bro, he wore that bastard. 1.00

01:07:58.520 The problem was, on the bus, he just had to fall into the seat like that. 1.00

01:08:01.840 He just couldn't.

01:08:02.580 It wasn't...

01:08:03.260 It was a large.

01:08:04.560 It was a large, and he was a small kid.

01:08:06.120 He wore it.

01:08:06.880 He actually wore it.

01:08:07.660 Oh, he wore it, bro.

01:08:08.740 He said, we're going paintballing, boys.

01:08:10.240 He wore it, dude.

01:08:11.100 His dad never gave him anything.

01:08:12.300 He wore that thing probably four days a week for about two weeks, and some people spray

01:08:16.200 painted graffiti on it.

01:08:17.280 His dad never gave...

01:08:18.080 So, Elvis, he wasn't a generous guy.

01:08:20.040 He wasn't giving his... 1.00

01:08:21.560 His dads were in velvet and giving his kids a plot with fucking shirts. 0.99

01:08:26.520 I got a blue suede shoes. 0.99

01:08:27.960 Did he think it was like a nice gift, do you think?

01:08:30.200 He did.

01:08:30.460 He did.

01:08:31.120 Oh, that's sweet.

01:08:32.000 That was the thing that was sweet about it.

01:08:33.260 It was like, oh, this is him doing something nice, you know?

01:08:35.820 Because he spent probably...

01:08:36.720 I bet he probably spent two weeks in there putting it together.

01:08:39.280 Wow.

01:08:40.060 I mean, that is really sweet.

01:08:41.200 Hey, these are reasons the South gets a bad thing.

01:08:44.820 That was talked about earlier.

01:08:45.740 Yeah, you don't hear... 0.96

01:08:46.540 You would never hear any fucking way else in the world, dude. 0.98

01:08:49.520 Yeah. 0.96

01:08:50.280 Education is low, but skills are through the roof.

01:08:51.960 I'm building my son a shirt. 0.97

01:08:53.220 This is why we lost the Civil War, because we're too busy making damn wooden shirts. 0.95

01:08:57.580 You could have built like a wagon or something with that. 0.76

01:09:00.740 He could have done some things, man.

01:09:02.600 He could have done some things.

01:09:03.860 Let's go to a question right here that came in.

01:09:07.040 Well, well, well, if it isn't the Mullet Muppets, Mr. Theo Vaughn, Morgan Whalen.

01:09:13.180 Huge fan of both of you guys.

01:09:14.780 Thank you for everything you do.

01:09:15.260 Hey, you can't even say my name right.

01:09:16.300 I did want to submit a question to Morgan and ask, what song are you most excited about?

01:09:23.880 Coming up on the album.

01:09:25.340 I listened to the three new songs that came out, as well as the other ones that have been the singles.

01:09:29.760 Forgive me.

01:09:30.020 And just awesome.

01:09:32.040 Awesome takes.

01:09:33.480 So, continue to do what you do.

01:09:35.760 And, yeah, what song are you most excited for and why?

01:09:38.660 He does have a...

01:09:39.800 Gang Gang.

01:09:40.520 Oh, sorry.

01:09:40.820 Theo, you're the man.

01:09:42.200 Thanks, man.

01:09:42.600 That's good, Sean.

01:09:43.000 And keep doing what you guys are doing.

01:09:44.380 Thank you, brother.

01:09:45.040 Thanks for the question, man.

01:09:45.880 I appreciate you.

01:09:46.760 Yeah, thank you.

01:09:47.580 And he does have a different accent, so maybe that's how they would say my name.

01:09:51.680 You get a lot of French fans, dude, that one year.

01:09:53.140 Yeah, that guy was from France.

01:09:54.260 Somebody said in the question about France.

01:09:55.340 Was that guy really from France, you think, or was he just saying that?

01:09:57.520 Yeah, really?

01:09:58.480 Oh, that guy's from France.

01:09:59.700 He had a weird sound.

01:10:00.620 Who would just say I'm from France?

01:10:01.940 I don't know.

01:10:02.600 Yeah.

01:10:03.300 But you're right, though.

01:10:03.980 Maybe he lied.

01:10:04.520 He could lie.

01:10:05.120 Yeah.

01:10:05.480 I'm not saying he's a liar.

01:10:06.620 Sorry, man.

01:10:07.480 I'll say it.

01:10:08.080 He could be.

01:10:09.500 I'll say it.

01:10:09.960 I'll say it.

01:10:10.520 I'll take the pressure off you.

01:10:11.580 And I think the mullet goes, I think we got four different types of mullet.

01:10:14.180 What do you got back there, buddy?

01:10:15.400 Mine's, yeah, it's growing out a little bit.

01:10:17.340 Oh, you got that New York City mullet, dude.

01:10:19.460 That business.

01:10:20.220 It's a little too long up top.

01:10:21.980 Maybe, if I think if I combed it all the way down, it would look more like you.

01:10:24.400 Man, that's beautiful, bro.

01:10:25.840 Yeah. 1.00

01:10:26.320 Yeah, you look like a damn raccoon that's going to prom, though. 1.00

01:10:28.600 Yeah, I kind of feel like it right now. 1.00

01:10:30.300 I'm not going to lie. 0.99

01:10:31.180 It's wintertime, and wearing this kind of shit makes my hair look like a rat's nest, 0.99

01:10:35.600 but it is what it is, you know? 1.00

01:10:37.180 That looks great.

01:10:37.800 I do, too.

01:10:38.220 Thank you, man.

01:10:38.460 You got some beautiful hair.

01:10:39.640 Appreciate it.

01:10:40.240 We're like four women with long hair.

01:10:41.280 Dude, I used to have Jeff Leppard hair back in the day.

01:10:43.880 Reading magazines.

01:10:45.580 Oh, it's beautiful, Hardy.

01:10:47.020 You're doing great.

01:10:48.560 My hat's already back on.

01:10:49.940 I'm like, all right, anyway, what about your hair?

01:10:52.360 Yeah, you got that version.

01:10:53.640 I got that lens.

01:10:54.560 Mine is a little bit more like women who prefer the company on women, I feel like. 0.70

01:10:58.980 Mine is definitely.

01:11:01.020 Morgan's is more mullet.

01:11:02.160 Yours is more, I feel like, kind of.

01:11:04.500 What is yours, Earn?

01:11:05.700 Dude, I don't know.

01:11:06.480 Well, when I get it trimmed up right and let it sit down correctly, it's outgrown.

01:11:11.160 I got to get Amy to cut it. 0.99

01:11:12.520 It's actually, bro, it's actually a bullet because I do it straight.

01:11:16.160 I don't know which camera.

01:11:16.920 I like that the best.

01:11:17.820 When I do it straight across the top and let it drop.

01:11:20.800 Oh, the Lord will find you if you keep it like that, bro.

01:11:22.580 People aren't really ready for it.

01:11:24.220 Because I can put it back for a casual setting.

01:11:26.060 I wouldn't.

01:11:26.940 I like that.

01:11:27.840 I would do that and drink out of the birdbath in the front yard, dog.

01:11:33.340 You know what I'm saying?

01:11:33.900 That's full throttle.

01:11:34.580 That's almost like a British sort of 80s British.

01:11:38.160 I did this before Miley did it.

01:11:39.800 I will say that.

01:11:40.440 Yeah, he did.

01:11:41.340 He did.

01:11:41.640 I know I did, and I know Miley's seen it because my name gets dropped, all right?

01:11:46.760 And I know she said, who's Ernest?

01:11:48.380 What a name.

01:11:48.900 And looked it up and saw my haircut and said, they'll never know I took it from him. 1.00

01:11:52.280 Oh, damn, man. 0.99

01:11:55.000 The majority don't. 1.00

01:11:56.160 He's trying to get Miley Cyrus on a song.

01:11:57.560 I'm trying to get Miley Cyrus on the phone and figure out where she figured out. 0.93

01:12:00.500 That's what I was saying, bro.

01:12:01.140 That haircut, dude. 0.94

01:12:02.140 It's a bullet. 0.95

01:12:02.720 Pat. 1.00

01:12:03.100 Damn. 1.00

01:12:03.960 Ernest's got big dreams, bro. 1.00

01:12:05.920 Golly.

01:12:07.440 I'm passionate.

01:12:08.420 Ernest. 1.00

01:12:08.860 Damn, fucking heated, huh? 1.00

01:12:10.880 Sorry. 1.00

01:12:11.520 I drank a suicide on the way here, and I'm geeked up.

01:12:14.040 No, you remind me of my Aunt Sally, dude, right now.

01:12:16.480 Honestly, dude, 100%.

01:12:18.240 Wow.

01:12:18.380 And she's badass, too, when you borrowed one of my dad's shirts one time to go swimming

01:12:21.540 in the pool, bro.

01:12:22.060 And it was not made of wood.

01:12:23.160 It was not made of wood.

01:12:25.500 Does she smoke Virginia Slims? 0.99

01:12:28.220 Bro, she smoke medium-sized Virginias, bro.

01:12:30.840 She's a bigger guy.

01:12:31.480 Call mom.

01:12:31.960 I'll say that. 1.00

01:12:32.680 Damn, dude. 1.00

01:12:33.780 Damn, I look like Aunt Sally. 1.00

01:12:35.220 I mean, but, bro, she was beautiful, too. 0.99

01:12:38.300 She won seventh place in a beauty contest, dude.

01:12:44.180 But there was 30 entrants. 1.00

01:12:45.380 Damn, bro. 0.99

01:12:45.800 There was 30 entrants. 1.00

01:12:46.340 All right, 30's not bad.

01:12:47.680 There was 30 entrants, dude.

01:12:48.960 It's top third, almost, you know?

01:12:50.460 Yeah, top third.

01:12:51.420 Come on, baby. 0.97

01:12:52.360 We're in the top third.

01:12:53.820 Dude, lips come, baby. 1.00

01:12:55.060 Do it.

01:12:55.560 Yes, sir.

01:12:56.720 I don't think we even answered that guy's question.

01:12:58.480 Yeah, we'll get to it.

01:12:59.160 What is it?

01:13:00.380 What's your favorite?

01:13:01.400 What's your most excited?

01:13:02.600 You got it, Rudy.

01:13:03.060 Yeah, what's your most excited one?

01:13:04.080 I didn't do it right either.

01:13:06.680 Yeah, what's the most excited one, man? 0.99

01:13:08.560 Damn, Morgan. 0.99

01:13:09.360 That's a hard question to ask. 0.99

01:13:11.300 It is, really.

01:13:12.040 And you shouldn't have to answer something like that.

01:13:15.000 Well, I'm not going to.

01:13:15.960 Yeah, there you go.

01:13:16.580 I'm not going to.

01:13:17.420 Let's get one more question that came in right here, man.

01:13:19.640 We want to keep you guys all day.

01:13:23.380 I already like this guy.

01:13:24.960 What's up, Theo?

01:13:25.540 What's up, Morgan?

01:13:26.060 What's up, Morgan?

01:13:26.100 Got a question for y'all.

01:13:31.820 What's the best place in Nashville to get that real hot-hose country music hitter? 1.00

01:13:36.780 You know what I'm saying?

01:13:38.720 Gang, gang.

01:13:39.460 PTL, baby.

01:13:40.860 PTL, praise the Lord, baby.

01:13:42.020 He's a very aware driver.

01:13:43.460 I like that.

01:13:44.260 Yeah, I was thinking that, too.

01:13:46.080 I like a man who can calmly ask a question and also drive.

01:13:48.920 That man's totally in control of his family.

01:13:49.940 Yeah, he seems like he's fine, yeah.

01:13:51.300 Yep.

01:13:51.440 But there's probably a kid in the backseat or something just asleep.

01:13:57.260 A kid who will watch this later in court in years from now in the future.

01:14:01.460 This is why you're with your mother. 1.00

01:14:03.940 Oh, shit. 1.00

01:14:04.680 This will be used as evidence. 1.00

01:14:07.600 Yeah, my dad is driving me.

01:14:10.220 He really wants to know.

01:14:10.900 I don't know what his question is, really.

01:14:12.580 Where do you get the hot songs in Nashville?

01:14:15.300 Good songs?

01:14:15.980 Yeah.

01:14:16.540 Does he want to go hear them?

01:14:17.680 I thought he was going to say hot chicken.

01:14:19.240 I did, too.

01:14:19.740 That's what I thought he was going to say.

01:14:20.380 We're going to say princess for that, probably.

01:14:22.020 Yeah.

01:14:22.360 But where do you get the hot?

01:14:23.360 I mean, I guess it's like, how competitive is it on the songwriting market?

01:14:26.460 I mean, what is that like?

01:14:27.340 It's like, if you need a good hit nowadays, do you go to one of these guys or do you have

01:14:31.420 somebody else that you see on the side?

01:14:32.960 You know, be honest with these fellas.

01:14:34.340 No, I mean, honestly, if I have an idea or if I just want to write songs, they're going

01:14:38.440 to be my top two people that I write with, for sure.

01:14:41.320 That's awesome.

01:14:41.680 I mean, not only are we good buddies, I really look up to and respect their talents more so than

01:14:48.580 almost anyone here.

01:14:50.160 I mean, we all write with other people, too.

01:14:52.240 You know, it's not like we don't just only write with each other.

01:14:56.180 You know, like we haven't written a song together in a while.

01:14:58.580 Yeah.

01:14:58.880 But it's not just it's not because we don't want to or because, you know, just we get

01:15:02.820 scheduled rights with other people or, you know, we get on a roll.

01:15:05.640 We may get on a roll like me and Aaron got on a roll with a couple of people.

01:15:08.040 So we just kept on hitting that roll.

01:15:10.980 It comes in and out of phases of people that you're kind of gelling with.

01:15:14.520 And yeah, it's a it's a whole process.

01:15:17.880 But I mean, but we're also not going around writing with everybody in Nashville.

01:15:20.640 Right.

01:15:21.300 You know, it's not like at first I did at first.

01:15:24.600 Yeah, you got to.

01:15:25.260 Once you find everybody did, you literally till you find your crew, you write with everybody.

01:15:29.900 Yeah.

01:15:30.540 And even once you kind of get cuts and you get some hits, then you write with the next

01:15:34.100 level of everybody.

01:15:35.200 You know what I mean?

01:15:36.060 And it sort of goes on until you really are here for, you know, writing songs for four

01:15:40.240 or five years and like really get your crew together.

01:15:42.740 Yeah.

01:15:42.980 And who keeps the tabs on how that like how that's dispensed between the different writers

01:15:48.000 if you get a point people?

01:15:49.320 Yeah, your publishers.

01:15:50.000 So they're handling all that.

01:15:51.140 Yeah.

01:15:51.700 And, you know, they'll ask, you know, did you enjoy that?

01:15:54.040 Do you want to write with these people?

01:15:54.980 Do you want to do this?

01:15:55.800 And do you want to do that?

01:15:56.740 And you just kind of.

01:15:58.900 Yeah.

01:15:59.380 Yeah.

01:15:59.680 Or no.

01:15:59.900 I mean, I don't know about y'all, but I mean, they they just like I don't know

01:16:05.060 who I'm writing with tomorrow, but I know I'm writing with somebody.

01:16:07.080 You know what I mean?

01:16:07.380 Like they just book it out and you just kind of stay on your calendar and stay a couple

01:16:11.760 weeks ahead and make sure it's not somebody that you hate.

01:16:14.120 Not that.

01:16:14.960 Right.

01:16:15.120 Or somebody you've worked with before.

01:16:16.160 It's uncomfortable.

01:16:16.860 Yeah, totally.

01:16:17.580 I mean, there may be a hit songwriter that's got 20 number ones that you just don't really

01:16:20.420 like writing.

01:16:20.760 No, there's there's.

01:16:21.820 And there ain't nothing wrong with it.

01:16:22.480 That's the thing I can think of.

01:16:23.240 Yeah.

01:16:23.460 It's like every room dynamics completely different because like I was saying, we definitely spent

01:16:28.380 two or three years speed dating pretty much.

01:16:30.760 Yeah.

01:16:31.540 And then now the luxury is not having to do that.

01:16:35.640 Yeah.

01:16:35.780 Getting to pick your room.

01:16:36.860 Yeah.

01:16:36.880 And luckily we found people who we really enjoy the company of who are badass at the

01:16:40.900 same time.

01:16:41.380 And you don't have to.

01:16:42.760 It's just.

01:16:43.520 And it all depends on.

01:16:44.400 You don't feel nervous to go write a song.

01:16:45.460 I don't.

01:16:45.740 We're just hanging out.

01:16:46.480 Never anymore.

01:16:47.060 I used to at first. 0.99

01:16:47.860 I was like, damn, man. 0.99

01:16:49.200 I don't know if I'm going to like this person. 0.99

01:16:50.540 I don't know if I have a good idea.

01:16:51.780 I don't know if.

01:16:52.940 That's how we met.

01:16:53.540 That's how me and you met.

01:16:54.360 Yeah.

01:16:55.080 That's crazy.

01:16:55.800 He came to my house.

01:16:57.480 I did.

01:16:57.960 Never met him before.

01:16:58.960 No.

01:16:59.740 And was he nice?

01:17:00.620 Was he friendly?

01:17:01.120 What was he like?

01:17:01.700 Yeah.

01:17:02.100 Yeah.

01:17:02.440 We wrote a cool song.

01:17:04.200 And then I remember Morgan recorded the work tape.

01:17:08.580 So after you write it, usually these days you have somebody that's pretty much sitting

01:17:11.440 and they look just like him except they're making music instead of other stuff.

01:17:15.920 You know what I mean?

01:17:16.480 And like a beat is going these days and you.

01:17:18.920 And they're working on the music while we're working on the song.

01:17:21.080 With acoustic guitars anymore, sadly.

01:17:23.520 But the first time we wrote, we wrote on acoustic and Morgan played the work tape like you just

01:17:29.400 recorded on your phone, you know, after it's over.

01:17:31.940 And he raised the key like three steps, which is a lot out of seven.

01:17:38.360 Wow.

01:17:38.520 And then did it again. 1.00

01:17:39.440 And I was like, fuck. 1.00

01:17:41.000 All right. 1.00

01:17:41.500 I like this guy.

01:17:42.800 And that was it, dude.

01:17:43.700 We just started drinking together.

01:17:45.340 We went and ate barbecue after that.

01:17:47.280 Yeah, we did.

01:17:48.080 I don't know.

01:17:48.680 We just started.

01:17:49.300 We've been boys ever since.

01:17:50.780 Praise God, man.

01:17:51.780 It took one time.

01:17:52.380 It was me, you, and Jameson.

01:17:53.360 Yeah.

01:17:53.680 Jameson Rogers is another good buddy of ours.

01:17:55.620 Yeah.

01:17:55.980 Love Jameson.

01:17:57.140 Yeah.

01:17:57.720 We, uh, but it doesn't always work like that.

01:18:00.900 Right.

01:18:01.220 No.

01:18:01.860 Dude.

01:18:02.560 I've had some, I've had some brutal ones.

01:18:04.520 Fake a phone call.

01:18:05.480 Yes, sir.

01:18:05.980 I'll take it.

01:18:06.720 Hello.

01:18:07.240 Nobody's on me.

01:18:07.900 I'm out.

01:18:08.500 Yeah, dude.

01:18:09.260 Oh my God.

01:18:09.760 I have an emergency.

01:18:10.760 My dog escaped from my house and he's running through my neighborhood.

01:18:13.460 Yeah.

01:18:13.480 My kid's on fire.

01:18:14.580 I'll give you some bad excuses, dude.

01:18:16.620 You don't even have kids.

01:18:17.560 Not anymore.

01:18:18.000 You don't even have any children.

01:18:19.280 Like the whole drive home, you're thinking about how you can set your kid on fire and take

01:18:22.320 a picture without getting in trouble.

01:18:23.720 Without actually burning them.

01:18:24.560 Just to have some proof.

01:18:25.040 Yeah.

01:18:29.060 Jesus Christ. 1.00

01:18:30.900 Damn. 0.99

01:18:33.080 Do you ever like, oh, this would be the last question I got. 0.99

01:18:35.220 Sometimes with music, like, you know, I noticed a lot of your stuff that I've heard, Morgan,

01:18:40.480 makes me like kind of nostalgic a little bit, you know?

01:18:43.160 And I love nostalgia.

01:18:44.320 If people are like, if you could go to space, you know, would you go be that astronaut?

01:18:47.680 I'd be like, no, I want to be an astronaut that like blasts backwards in the time and

01:18:50.640 in my feelings when I was a child.

01:18:51.960 You know what I'm saying?

01:18:52.440 Like, that's the astronaut I want to be.

01:18:54.400 Like, how do I get back there?

01:18:57.160 Hypnotherapy.

01:18:58.920 There's a thing for that.

01:19:00.320 Astronaut.

01:19:00.640 Now, I'd go for, dude, Ernie, I would go to you for like a reading or something, I

01:19:06.040 bet.

01:19:07.900 You can get them palms wrapped for sure.

01:19:10.200 Ernie's roadside readings, bro.

01:19:11.520 I got to pull up straight at that.

01:19:12.560 I got a couple of carrot cards in there.

01:19:13.620 Carrot cards or whatever.

01:19:15.440 Carrot cards, bro.

01:19:18.300 I just want to have one carrot.

01:19:19.480 That's two carrots. 0.93

01:19:20.240 Do you sometimes find like a piece of something that like, you're like, oh, that makes me

01:19:27.840 think or feel a certain way and that's how you guys start a nugget for a song?

01:19:31.160 Is there any real secret to it?

01:19:32.420 I know this is a real general question.

01:19:34.360 I mean, you start with an idea usually and I think everybody, once you know how that idea

01:19:39.680 is going to get written, like the storyline, everybody sort of taps into their own personal

01:19:42.900 experiences and then they use their writing voice to sort of regurgitate that to a certain

01:19:48.020 extent.

01:19:48.380 I mean, for me, that's one of my favorite feelings too.

01:19:51.140 When I hear a song, is that feeling?

01:19:53.300 I think it probably is all three of us, if I had to guess.

01:19:56.860 That's a feeling that I think we all relate to.

01:19:59.040 So I think just naturally, that's kind of where we go.

01:20:01.900 It's like inspiration that's like you don't even know you're using it.

01:20:07.540 Subconscious, maybe.

01:20:08.380 Subconscious, yeah.

01:20:09.400 But when I'm listening to a song, I like songs that make me feel that way too.

01:20:13.520 So I think just, and I'm guessing we're all the same.

01:20:15.500 Yeah, country music's good because it lends itself to that.

01:20:19.840 So the art of writing a country song, like you're writing three or four topics all the

01:20:23.840 time.

01:20:24.100 It's like, what's the new clever way to write a nostalgic song?

01:20:26.880 I was like, the night we wrote Hometown, I was faded as hell. 0.98

01:20:29.840 I always ask Hardy if his back hurts for carrying my ass through that song. 0.97

01:20:34.580 Me and Hardy wrote that song. 0.98

01:20:36.760 Yeah, yeah, dude, I was browned out in the corner, but it was in my room over at Big

01:20:41.300 Live.

01:20:41.940 I do remember when, he said, ain't that a map dot shame?

01:20:47.260 And I think that, boy, I got glass walls, I about ran through one.

01:20:50.920 I was like, ain't that a map dot shame?

01:20:52.780 Ain't nobody writing this song in Nashville tonight.

01:20:55.540 That's about all I said tonight.

01:20:56.920 And that is not even a diss at Earn, because Earn is usually the one saying more than anyone.

01:21:03.700 Yeah, that's why I own it.

01:21:05.440 I didn't do much on more than my own time.

01:21:08.280 But his energy in the room, I don't know that we would have wrote that song without that.

01:21:12.220 No, yeah, it never would have came out exactly like it did.

01:21:16.500 There's no way.

01:21:17.180 The variables were not there the same.

01:21:19.260 There's no way it would have.

01:21:20.300 Yeah.

01:21:20.440 But usually he's writing more lyrics than me and whoever else it is combined.

01:21:24.820 But I say that because more than my hometown, it was unraveling that whole nostalgic feeling.

01:21:32.060 I think it's one of the coolest ways to do it.

01:21:34.300 Like, stuck in these streets like the train tracks and bars, dude.

01:21:38.120 Solid.

01:21:38.920 Oh, that's a little Wayne, bro.

01:21:40.680 Dude, that's what it is.

01:21:41.780 It is like a little Wayne.

01:21:42.360 It is stuck in these streets like some train tracks.

01:21:44.880 That's a little Wayne, bro.

01:21:45.940 What do you call it?

01:21:46.920 It's good.

01:21:47.400 I mean, yeah.

01:21:47.700 It's a metaphor, I guess?

01:21:48.220 That's a simile.

01:21:49.220 Simile. 1.00

01:21:49.540 Simile like her ass. 1.00

01:21:51.340 It's called a here. 1.00

01:21:52.100 Petaphore is a damn dessert, I think, isn't it? 0.99

01:21:55.280 A dessert? 1.00

01:21:55.940 Dinosaur.

01:21:56.480 Petaphore, what is it called?

01:21:57.460 Petaphore.

01:21:57.920 Oh, metaphor.

01:21:59.220 Metaphor.

01:21:59.940 My bad.

01:22:00.520 Wait, what's a pedaphore?

01:22:01.560 Petaphore is a little cake you get at the bakery.

01:22:03.920 Is it really?

01:22:04.640 Yeah, yeah.

01:22:04.960 I thought you said pedaphore.

01:22:08.680 Why is that so close to pedophile? 0.90

01:22:11.080 I know.

01:22:12.320 It's a mix between pedophile and metaphor. 0.51

01:22:13.940 Go get you a little cake, you know? 0.81

01:22:15.560 I can see it.

01:22:16.340 I guess.

01:22:17.140 I can see it checking out.

01:22:18.100 Jesus Christ. 0.98

01:22:19.540 I have two pedophores. 0.88

01:22:20.920 And so you tour, because I was getting my hair cut, and this lady's like, you got to hear 0.92

01:22:24.840 this guy, you know?

01:22:26.060 And so that's how she turned me on to you, this hair cutter in town, Whitney.

01:22:32.300 You got to tour a little bit during this COVID.

01:22:34.900 Yeah.

01:22:35.260 I played some shows, and I played...

01:22:37.780 In the rain, you told me, right?

01:22:39.080 Yeah, we did one in Georgia in the rain.

01:22:42.340 That was our first show back, and it was like a socially distant...

01:22:45.300 It was a huge parking lot.

01:22:46.580 And they had like, you know, like, it's just guardrail with the bicycle rack looking kind.

01:22:53.320 You know what I'm talking about?

01:22:54.560 Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:22:55.220 Does that make sense?

01:22:55.640 I do, yeah.

01:22:56.320 And it was just like...

01:22:57.300 I could tell Broadway down there, right?

01:22:58.500 Yeah, yeah.

01:22:59.580 Yeah, you knew.

01:23:02.420 I was waiting on that.

01:23:03.620 They'd be like, you know, the third one right outside Texas, it's got the Sharpie on it.

01:23:06.640 You had to lean up again with your belongings on the side of...

01:23:09.580 That's where Morgan went to college, bro.

01:23:15.700 Oh, Broadway?

01:23:16.780 Yeah, I went to Broadway College.

01:23:18.320 He's the only one who showed up with a book bag over there at Kid Rock's bar.

01:23:21.600 Yeah, he did have a book bag full of beer and reasons, dude.

01:23:25.500 Oh, my God.

01:23:27.960 But, yeah, it was like 400 squares of those.

01:23:32.820 Like, it was cool.

01:23:33.720 And then we played Atlanta.

01:23:35.320 Same thing.

01:23:35.980 It was separated.

01:23:38.000 And then we played Florida.

01:23:39.580 And everything was completely normal in Florida.

01:23:42.540 And it was weird.

01:23:43.320 I was surprised.

01:23:44.420 It was crazy.

01:23:45.720 I love that.

01:23:46.880 Like, crazy to think that, like, you could drive 30 minutes north from Gainesville or however

01:23:52.560 and be in Georgia.

01:23:53.480 And, like, that's completely frowned upon.

01:23:55.620 But Florida is.

01:23:56.120 Florida is the new America, man.

01:23:57.280 It's the new Roanoke, bro.

01:23:58.980 It's where Christopher Columbus landed.

01:23:59.920 That's the Wild West out there.

01:24:01.100 It is, dude.

01:24:02.920 Man, it was crazy.

01:24:04.220 But, I mean, the shows were awesome.

01:24:07.000 Dude, I tell my friends in Britain, I say, hey, man.

01:24:09.140 We might be coming back.

01:24:10.480 That's what I tell them about. 1.00

01:24:11.660 We might put a shit together. 0.99

01:24:12.360 Where can we go next? 0.99

01:24:14.100 Is there anywhere that's been unestablished?

01:24:16.340 Yeah, where can we go next?

01:24:17.880 It might be Canada, man.

01:24:19.120 I'm telling you.

01:24:19.700 Canada rocks.

01:24:20.740 It does rock.

01:24:21.860 I think we all agree with that.

01:24:23.700 We already talked about this earlier.

01:24:24.860 I think everyone can agree on that.

01:24:26.460 Canada rocks.

01:24:27.220 Toronto is so cool.

01:24:28.560 Yeah.

01:24:28.780 I watched Morgan play a festival there one time in a tent.

01:24:32.960 He headlined the tent.

01:24:33.960 You know how, like, it'll be a big tent.

01:24:35.460 That's what we talked about earlier.

01:24:36.320 Boots and hearts?

01:24:37.260 Yeah.

01:24:37.640 Yeah.

01:24:37.960 And the crowd was, somebody had the decibel, like, they were some way to measure volume.

01:24:44.480 Did you talk about all this already?

01:24:45.840 I didn't talk about that part.

01:24:46.620 The crowd was literally louder than the sound, than the band, than the music coming out of

01:24:52.500 the speakers.

01:24:53.100 Dang.

01:24:53.320 That's crazy.

01:24:53.500 It was, I had never witnessed anything like it, dude.

01:24:56.360 And we were so hungover that day.

01:24:58.040 Oh, yeah.

01:24:58.340 I was like, I don't know if I can play today, guys.

01:25:01.420 And then it was one of the best ones.

01:25:03.000 That was a good time.

01:25:03.820 I definitely didn't know if I could sing or not.

01:25:05.680 Oh, that's the worst.

01:25:06.680 Canada rocks.

01:25:07.200 I did, like, a few interviews before the show, you know, and I'm like, rrrr.

01:25:12.200 Morgan, Morgan, Morgan, Morgan, Morgan.

01:25:13.780 Dude, is this guy okay?

01:25:15.720 How's he about to sing? 1.00

01:25:17.080 Damn. 0.99

01:25:19.140 Have you guys ever all sang together on the stage at once? 0.99

01:25:21.300 No.

01:25:21.860 Not all three of us.

01:25:22.640 We've shot gun a beer on stage together.

01:25:24.320 Well, Ern's busy pitching baseball, so as soon as he gets back on the stage.

01:25:30.300 I got three workouts a day.

01:25:32.820 Ern's out there filming a league of their own.

01:25:34.340 As soon as they send him back to the softball league, out of the men's league. 0.98

01:25:38.800 Now, Ern, if you push the envelope and try to get on the damn female softball team, I 1.00

01:25:42.240 would support that. 0.99

01:25:43.500 Who can tell me I can't?

01:25:44.880 Yeah, you're right.

01:25:45.880 No one.

01:25:46.200 I've talked about that all the time, dude.

01:25:47.880 Dude, I was peeing in the airport in St. Thomas, and then it was like a minute-long

01:25:53.400 piss, and I turned around and realized that one of the ladies had been cleaning the whole 1.00

01:25:56.820 time. 0.90

01:25:57.160 I was like, dang, dude, I bet she just has to deal with this all the time. 1.00

01:26:00.740 I probably would have still peed, but that's something different.

01:26:03.260 Oh, yeah, because of same-gender bathrooms. 0.99

01:26:04.900 Yeah, it's like you don't even know who the janitor is.

01:26:06.300 That's the scary part.

01:26:07.080 It's like what janitor is going to be in there.

01:26:08.500 Yes.

01:26:08.760 Yeah.

01:26:09.380 And how do I behave towards them?

01:26:11.140 Exactly.

01:26:11.740 Do they want me to pretend they're not?

01:26:13.500 Do I greet them?

01:26:14.320 I think you completely ignore.

01:26:17.080 Yeah, yeah.

01:26:17.660 You're not in there.

01:26:18.320 Ignore for sure.

01:26:19.300 Yeah, I do what I usually do in any bathroom is completely ignore everybody. 0.99

01:26:22.420 Do y'all tip the dude that's in nice places that'll wash your hands for you and shit? 0.99

01:26:26.880 Bro, I'll tell you this story. 0.99

01:26:28.020 If I have cash, I will.

01:26:29.220 So, I'm in Seattle or something, right?

01:26:33.440 I'm in there, and I go in the bathroom, and there's a guy in there, and he's like,

01:26:37.100 hey, bro, I have to use the bathroom, right?

01:26:39.160 I go in there, I'm like, I go in the stall, and I have to sit down, right?

01:26:44.860 So, I have to sit down and do adult bathroom use, and this man, the guy working in there

01:26:49.640 bangs on the stall is like, don't worry, bro, I got you, Holmes, and I'm like, what?

01:26:53.780 I don't need any, I don't need anything.

01:26:55.820 I'm fine, you know?

01:26:56.560 And it's the mint guy in there.

01:26:57.720 It's the guy with the mint and everything, you know?

01:26:59.460 I don't like that.

01:27:00.260 I don't like that guy.

01:27:00.780 I don't like it either.

01:27:01.440 Another guy runs in the bathroom a minute later and starts pulling on the stall door,

01:27:04.820 right?

01:27:05.040 I guess he has to go to the bathroom.

01:27:06.620 This bouncer guy, I guess he's now the bouncer of this toilet, he starts a fight, a physical

01:27:12.260 fight with the dude.

01:27:13.240 He's like, hey, that's my boy in there.

01:27:14.480 And I'm in there like, I don't know who's out there.

01:27:17.320 Anyway, they start fist fighting, dude.

01:27:19.000 The police come in.

01:27:20.740 What?

01:27:21.980 The police come in, bro. 1.00

01:27:22.880 He's just trying to take a shit. 1.00

01:27:24.080 Yeah. 1.00

01:27:24.300 And I'm just in the urinal.

01:27:26.020 Oh, my God.

01:27:27.000 So, anyway, it gets really...

01:27:28.360 Was that like a fan of yours or something?

01:27:29.940 No, it was just a guy who I think, you know, you come in there, he's like, hey, I got you,

01:27:32.980 bro.

01:27:33.200 And then you owe him on the way out.

01:27:34.460 It's kind of like a...

01:27:35.180 He's doing the most...

01:27:36.080 It's like the bathroom version of the people wiping your windshield.

01:27:39.120 Yes.

01:27:39.360 Like, yeah.

01:27:40.280 Yeah, let me get you, dog.

01:27:41.280 You might owe that dude some loyalty or something.

01:27:44.260 You might need to get your stripes now.

01:27:46.120 It was intense.

01:27:46.460 I don't really understand.

01:27:47.660 Like, I don't want a bathroom attendant at all.

01:27:49.620 I get nervous sometimes.

01:27:50.620 I feel like I have to have a couple minutes.

01:27:52.220 I'll stay there and have, you know, it's like a little salad bar.

01:27:54.480 Hey, what'd you do today, bro?

01:27:55.680 He's like, well, I'll do this.

01:27:57.940 I just washed my hands.

01:27:59.000 I don't need another squeeze. 1.00

01:28:00.300 I just beat the shit out of somebody coming here trying to shit. 1.00

01:28:03.300 Yeah, yeah. 1.00

01:28:05.340 Yeah, it's been a long week for everybody. 0.96

01:28:07.140 Dude, definitely shit his pants in that fight. 0.99

01:28:08.900 If he had to get in that fight and then had to get hit in the face. 0.99

01:28:12.120 I feel so bad.

01:28:13.760 I'm like, leave him alone.

01:28:15.380 He went to jail wet.

01:28:18.740 That dude had a rough train.

01:28:21.460 No.

01:28:22.700 It's too much, man. 1.00

01:28:24.000 You guys are crazy. 0.95

01:28:26.560 Well, man, congratulations on all you guys' success. 0.99

01:28:28.880 Congratulations on the number one, man.

01:28:30.880 That's crazy, bro.

01:28:32.380 This is cool.

01:28:33.100 This worked out perfect.

01:28:34.780 I was so nervous.

01:28:35.820 I didn't know.

01:28:36.160 I called Hardy yesterday.

01:28:37.180 I was like, do you think Morgan would be upset if we had you and Ernest come in?

01:28:40.760 Or do you think he would be okay with it?

01:28:42.100 Oh, no.

01:28:42.300 He's like, he'll love you.

01:28:43.080 Yeah, I'm glad y'all came. 1.00

01:28:44.760 And then halfway through, I was like, oh, fuck. 1.00

01:28:47.580 We're going to have a number one that day. 1.00

01:28:49.520 It was perfect.

01:28:50.220 Yeah.

01:28:50.660 Yeah, and that's why I was like, oh, it was the perfect timing.

01:28:52.580 Yeah.

01:28:53.760 Hell, yeah.

01:28:54.620 But, man, yeah.

01:28:55.260 I know you just came from hunting, bro.

01:28:57.140 Yeah, I'm about to go back.

01:28:58.500 I had to come into town and get that COVID test and do this and get my tires rotated.

01:29:03.500 And I'm about to go straight back.

01:29:04.540 Well, happy Thanksgiving, guys.

01:29:05.720 Thank you guys so much for coming in.

01:29:06.840 Congrats on all the success, man.

01:29:08.020 It's awesome.

01:29:08.660 It's awesome to see.

01:29:09.660 Thank you.

01:29:09.900 And thank you guys for making good music that makes people think and feel, you know, and

01:29:13.000 hope you guys get back out on the road soon.

01:29:15.420 I know that all you guys want to.

01:29:17.780 Yeah.

01:29:19.080 And I'm super proud of these boys.

01:29:20.880 I'm super thankful to do it with them.

01:29:22.280 Just want to say that.

01:29:23.140 Hell, yeah.

01:29:23.500 Amen, man.

01:29:24.240 Yeah, it's cool.

01:29:25.420 Everywhere I go, it's like people say all you guys' names.

01:29:28.060 It's really cool to just hear and even just to get to be here with you guys today

01:29:31.840 is really awesome.

01:29:32.500 So, happy Thanksgiving, everybody.

01:29:35.720 Now I'm just floating on the breeze and I feel I'm falling like these leaves.

01:29:42.500 I must be cornerstone.

01:29:45.560 Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind.

01:29:52.440 And I found I can feel it in my bones.

01:29:57.140 But it's gonna take a little time for me to set that parking brake and let myself unwind.

01:30:08.900 Shine that light on the breeze and I'll sit and tell you my stories.

01:30:19.680 Shine on me and I will find a song I will sing it just for you.

01:30:31.280 And now I've been moving way too fast on the runaway train with a heavy load of my hands.

01:30:46.060 And these roads that I've been riding on, they're war so thin that they're dancing on.

01:30:51.860 Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jonathan Kite and welcome to Kite Club.

01:30:58.420 A podcast where I'll be sharing thoughts on things like current events, stand-up stories, and seven ways to pleasure your partner.

01:31:06.180 The answer may shock you.

01:31:07.920 Sometimes I'll interview my friends.

01:31:09.960 Sometimes I won't.

01:31:10.820 And as always, I'll be joined by the voices in my head.

01:31:14.580 You have three new voice messages.

01:31:17.640 A lot of people are talking about Kite Club.

01:31:20.500 I've been talking about Kite Club for so long.

01:31:23.180 Longer than anybody else.

01:31:24.800 So great.

01:31:26.160 Hi, sweetheart. 0.94

01:31:27.840 Here's a deal. 1.00

01:31:29.140 Anyone who doesn't listen to Kite Club is a dodgy bloody wanker. 1.00

01:31:33.100 Jermaine. 0.99

01:31:34.380 Hi, I'll take a quarter pounder with cheese and a McFlurry.

01:31:37.980 Sorry, sir, but our ice cream machine is broken.

01:31:40.820 I think Tom Hanks just butt-dialed me.

01:31:44.980 Anyway, first rule of Kite Club is, tell everyone about Kite Club.

01:31:49.120 Second rule of Kite Club is, tell everyone about Kite Club.

01:31:53.360 Third rule, like and subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts or watch us on YouTube, yeah?

01:31:59.160 And yes, don't worry, my Brad Pitt impression will get better.
