00:02:38.140 I've been singing just before

00:02:40.920 Here's kind of vibing today, dude.

00:02:49.080 You're having a good hair day.

00:02:50.360 What do you do to it?

00:02:51.480 Huh?

00:02:51.800 What do you do to it?

00:02:52.520 You volumize it?

00:02:53.900 I mean, does that mean not wash it as much?

00:02:56.780 No, that's not what that means.

00:02:58.100 Oh, it isn't?

00:02:58.600 You don't got some powder or something?

00:03:00.160 Oh, you know, I don't put no damn powder in my hair.

00:03:01.500 You have a hair routine.

00:03:02.600 The Lord does my hair while I sleep.

00:03:05.300 So when I wake up, it's just...

00:03:06.800 That's such a dude thing.

00:03:07.940 What is?

00:03:08.800 The Lord doing your hair while you sleep.

00:03:10.240 Like, how I look.

00:03:12.560 It works.

00:03:13.560 Yeah, for some people it works.

00:03:14.780 Now, some men, they wake up and it's just not that, you know, I think it's the Lord missed them

00:03:19.760 or he left them too long in the...

00:03:21.520 I think so.

00:03:22.960 What's that thing that they put on women?

00:03:24.480 Did you ever go to the hair salon with your mom and they would put that thing on her?

00:03:27.120 Yeah, they still do it.

00:03:28.120 Do they really?

00:03:28.380 They do that to everybody, not just mom.

00:03:30.400 Yeah, whatever that thing.

00:03:31.260 My mom sometimes, like, if it was going to be, like, Easter or something, she would take

00:03:35.340 us, yeah, she would take us to this nice place.

00:03:38.340 It was called the Looking Glass Salon.

00:03:40.400 Wow.

00:03:41.400 Where at?

00:03:42.400 This was in Louisiana, in Covington, Louisiana, and it was nice.

00:03:45.520 Like, when you open the door, it had, like, a little bell on it or whatever.

00:03:48.860 Oh, that's how you know it's a good one.

00:03:50.240 Well, you just knew that they meant business in there, you know?

00:03:52.800 Did you go under one of those?

00:03:54.800 Sometimes I would sneak in while my mom's hair was under it and I'd put my hands in

00:03:58.520 there.

00:03:58.880 It feels nice, no?

00:03:59.680 Yeah.

00:04:00.640 And I thought it felt pretty cool and it just made me feel like I'm going to be somebody

00:04:04.720 someday, you know?

00:04:05.500 You should go.

00:04:06.280 You should go now, yeah.

00:04:07.920 I feel like you have long enough hair to where it'll, like, it'll do something.

00:04:11.020 To get it done?

00:04:11.660 Yeah.

00:04:12.440 Is that your hair?

00:04:13.380 Yes.

00:04:13.860 All of it.

00:04:14.780 Yeah.

00:04:15.520 Wow.

00:04:16.580 I bet horses get jealous, probably some of them.

00:04:18.480 You think so?

00:04:19.060 Yeah.

00:04:19.920 I hope so.

00:04:20.480 Jesse Murph, thanks for coming in.

00:04:24.900 Thanks for having me.

00:04:26.140 I'm excited.

00:04:26.960 I'm happy that you're here.

00:04:28.220 I'm a big fan.

00:04:28.920 You know that.

00:04:30.900 Yeah.

00:04:31.760 Right?

00:04:32.600 Yeah.

00:04:33.320 I mean, I love, like, I don't know, like, the album names and stuff, but I went, what

00:04:38.680 was the tour?

00:04:39.240 I saw you in Boston, I think it was during Drowning, maybe?

00:04:43.180 Yeah.

00:04:43.900 Yeah.

00:04:44.100 Damn, was it?

00:04:44.760 Wow.

00:04:45.200 Yeah.

00:04:45.360 Long time.

00:04:46.080 And I even bought a shirt and I was going to say, and I saved it to wear if you ever came

00:04:50.100 in.

00:04:50.400 You didn't wear it?

00:04:51.660 What's up?

00:04:51.800 And it's in Nashville.

00:04:52.840 That's fucked up, dude.

00:04:53.740 I only bought one.

00:04:54.800 It's fucked up.

00:04:55.440 But that's okay.

00:04:58.660 What's going on?

00:04:59.340 How's your day?

00:05:00.220 My day's good.

00:05:01.660 Yeah, no.

00:05:02.460 It's been a good day.

00:05:03.260 It has?

00:05:03.680 Not much has happened.

00:05:04.680 Really?

00:05:04.860 How's your day going?

00:05:05.740 My day's pretty chill.

00:05:06.880 What happened?

00:05:07.460 We did a podcast this morning and, yeah, might go get a massage after this or go to dinner.

00:05:14.120 You should.

00:05:14.800 Yeah.

00:05:16.000 And, yeah, that's about it, really.

00:05:17.820 You get massages a lot.

00:05:18.920 I do.

00:05:19.580 They're good for the soul.

00:05:20.400 Yeah.

00:05:20.920 They really are, huh?

00:05:22.360 I think having somebody touch you that's not trying to like.

00:05:25.740 That's not sus?

00:05:26.760 That's not, yeah, trying to be a pervert or whatever.

00:05:28.540 It depends on the massage you're getting.

00:05:30.140 The places I go, I tell them immediately when I go in there, do not.

00:05:34.380 You really do that?

00:05:35.460 Oh, I tell them straight up.

00:05:36.580 Seriously?

00:05:37.300 Yeah, because I.

00:05:37.960 Do you feel like you have to?

00:05:39.400 I just don't.

00:05:40.560 I want clear communication between me and anybody that's touching my body.

00:05:45.060 I feel like, because here's what happened.

00:05:47.040 Should you be doing that, though?

00:05:48.540 I don't do it.

00:05:49.720 What, getting massages?

00:05:50.580 No, I don't tell them that.

00:05:51.720 Oh, you don't?

00:05:52.260 You're just taking a risk?

00:05:53.600 Should I be telling them that?

00:05:54.960 I mean, I think you prefaced it like, hey, guys, I'm just here for the massage, especially

00:06:00.940 if I was a girl, I feel like I would.

00:06:02.960 Really?

00:06:03.320 Yeah.

00:06:03.480 Even if it's another girl, you think so?

00:06:05.360 These days.

00:06:05.720 You're telling them?

00:06:06.640 You're telling them.

00:06:07.340 Yeah, because some of the girls are even so strong and you don't know.

00:06:10.140 You don't know who's who.

00:06:12.420 Who's you don't know who's who.

00:06:14.460 Now I'm nervous.

00:06:15.100 No, but I will tell them straight up, because here's what happened.

00:06:18.560 One time I was in the massage, sometimes they have that little chair where they put your

00:06:22.080 face down.

00:06:22.540 Have you seen that thing?

00:06:23.240 Yeah.

00:06:23.260 No, I haven't heard of that.

00:06:23.720 So I was in there, the ladies massaging me.

00:06:26.060 A guy comes in.

00:06:28.140 This was like at a strip mall in Tennessee.

00:06:31.000 And a guy comes in and he's talking to the woman and he asks her if they do like happy

00:06:36.140 endings or whatever.

00:06:37.360 Damn.

00:06:37.860 Like a client.

00:06:38.680 Yes.

00:06:38.940 Okay.

00:06:39.360 And I felt like, I cannot believe this guy's asking this.

00:06:44.240 And the lady's like, no, no, no.

00:06:45.180 She's doing your massage?

00:06:46.360 Yes.

00:06:46.720 Okay, okay.

00:06:47.760 And I was like, tell him no, you know, I was just like, because I don't know how experienced

00:06:51.220 she is or whatever.

00:06:52.440 And then, yeah, she's like, no.

00:06:54.460 And then the guy got, you know, I think he felt a little embarrassed.

00:06:56.740 And then he left.

00:06:58.240 But anyway, that's why ever since then, I go in, I say, and if we have a language barrier,

00:07:03.620 I'll even draw.

00:07:04.680 You draw?

00:07:05.140 How do you draw it?

00:07:06.420 What do you draw?

00:07:07.280 Well, I'll draw like kind of a human body.

00:07:10.740 Okay.

00:07:11.160 And then I'll draw kind of like the middle area.

00:07:13.800 How long would you say this is taking you?

00:07:16.100 Like how long?

00:07:16.840 Well, you know, for me, it takes a little while to draw it.

00:07:19.980 And then I will put a big X over the middle.

00:07:22.220 That's what you do.

00:07:22.840 Yes.

00:07:23.800 I can see it.

00:07:24.740 If the language is, if there's a language barrier.

00:07:26.220 That makes sense.

00:07:26.960 Yeah.

00:07:27.340 I can't judge you for that.

00:07:28.540 Thank you.

00:07:28.980 Yeah.

00:07:29.160 Because I want them to know straight up, I'm here so that when we both, when I leave,

00:07:34.400 we both feel cool, but not strange.

00:07:37.340 And that's respectful of you.

00:07:38.720 Thank you.

00:07:39.680 I get it.

00:07:40.400 That's where we are.

00:07:41.400 You've like had so much success at your age.

00:07:47.000 Pretty crazy.

00:07:48.180 Crazy.

00:07:49.020 Are there moments where it's like, I wish, because I don't think people realize like,

00:07:55.640 a lot of people think like, oh, I would like to have popularity.

00:07:58.320 I would like to have fame.

00:07:59.720 I would like to have some celebrity, you know?

00:08:01.740 But then once that kind of comes, it's real.

00:08:04.960 And you can't like put it back in the box.

00:08:07.920 You know, do you ever have moments where you're like, gosh, this is a lot.

00:08:12.180 And it's like, and it's going to be here to stay probably, you know?

00:08:17.300 Yeah.

00:08:17.700 I mean, definitely.

00:08:18.300 I think it, I'm sure you have to say, it just gets a little overwhelming sometimes.

00:08:22.300 Yeah.

00:08:22.800 But yeah, I don't know.

00:08:25.180 Yeah.

00:08:25.340 Because I mean, it's kind of crazy.

00:08:26.600 No, it is crazy.

00:08:27.700 Yeah.

00:08:27.980 And it's so different from how I like grew up and how everything that I saw when I was

00:08:33.280 younger is.

00:08:33.860 So it's just like a very different, it's an adjustment for sure.

00:08:36.780 Yeah.

00:08:37.220 Yeah.

00:08:37.420 A lot of people don't know you're from Huntsville, Alabama.

00:08:40.060 Yeah.

00:08:40.860 Since that rocket, you have like the most trajectory out of Huntsville.

00:08:44.400 You think so?

00:08:45.120 I think so.

00:08:45.620 Since that, you know, the rocket that's by the interstate over there?

00:08:47.440 I know the rocket.

00:08:47.760 Everybody knows the rocket.

00:08:48.900 How do you know about the rocket?

00:08:50.340 Look, honey, you drive through there and then people are like, have you seen the rocket?

00:08:54.400 It's the thing.

00:08:55.220 Yeah.

00:08:55.720 Yeah.

00:08:55.840 Did you go?

00:08:57.080 I don't know.

00:08:57.820 I think we pulled over one time.

00:08:59.640 That's the rocket.

00:09:00.680 Yeah.

00:09:03.220 Huntsville is kind of a cool place.

00:09:04.320 You don't realize.

00:09:04.880 I feel like it's the next Lexington kind of.

00:09:06.980 You think so?

00:09:07.760 Yeah.

00:09:08.020 I think because there's a lot of odd diversity there.

00:09:10.960 It's like, I mean, I don't know.

00:09:12.600 What did you think it was like growing up?

00:09:14.140 Did you feel like it was just the sticks?

00:09:17.080 No.

00:09:17.740 Huntsville, no.

00:09:18.340 I feel like that's a city.

00:09:19.420 Yeah.

00:09:19.620 But I did live in this place called Athens, Alabama, and that was the sticks.

00:09:24.100 Yeah.

00:09:24.880 It's like 45 outside of there.

00:09:26.920 You ever been?

00:09:27.400 45 minutes outside of Huntsville?

00:09:28.220 Mm-hmm.

00:09:28.540 Have you ever been to Athens, Alabama?

00:09:29.820 Yeah.

00:09:30.060 No, ma'am.

00:09:31.000 Don't go.

00:09:34.540 What?

00:09:35.220 Athens is the city of the county city of Limestone County.

00:09:37.700 That's where you're from, Limestone County?

00:09:39.020 Yeah.

00:09:39.340 Well, I was born in Huntsville, but I lived here during like middle school and high school.

00:09:42.880 Limestone County.

00:09:43.360 So formative years.

00:09:44.220 Yeah, very formative.

00:09:45.240 You know?

00:09:46.440 Did you guys have like school dances and stuff over there?

00:09:49.320 Yeah.

00:09:49.900 Yeah?

00:09:50.220 I think so.

00:09:50.700 Did you have the one where the girl has to ask the boy?

00:09:52.920 No.

00:09:53.400 Why would you think that?

00:09:54.880 Because some schools have them.

00:09:56.380 Like in the South, they have Sadie Hawkins.

00:09:58.220 Yeah.

00:09:58.540 Oh my God.

00:09:59.080 Yes, we had this.

00:10:00.580 I went to that.

00:10:01.560 You did?

00:10:01.980 No, you're so right.

00:10:03.240 Yeah.

00:10:03.800 That's a really fun one.

00:10:04.840 Yeah.

00:10:05.000 Anything you want to know about yourself, just ask me.

00:10:07.800 But you had to ask a boy.

00:10:10.280 Yeah, I guess I did.

00:10:12.360 Damn.

00:10:13.020 Do you remember?

00:10:13.760 Like, do you?

00:10:14.200 Like.

00:10:16.080 We did have that.

00:10:17.240 Oh my God.

00:10:17.700 That has brought up so many memories.

00:10:19.160 Oh yeah.

00:10:19.560 Because the girl had to buy the shirt, dude.

00:10:21.400 And I remember I'd be at school and it would be like the day the girl was going to give

00:10:24.280 you the shirt.

00:10:25.000 And you'd be like.

00:10:25.320 What shirt?

00:10:25.720 What shirt are you talking about?

00:10:26.600 Oh, because girls and boys had to have matching shirts for Sadie Hawkins dance.

00:10:30.580 Oh, we had different Sadie Hawkins.

00:10:31.840 Oh, really?

00:10:32.360 What was yours like?

00:10:33.960 You had to get a matching shirt and the girl would buy it.

00:10:37.680 But then you had to meet her at school and the day she would give you the shirt, you

00:10:40.880 know, she'd call you the night before and she'd be like, my mom got us shirts.

00:10:44.340 And you'd be like, all right.

00:10:45.260 You don't know what the shirt is?

00:10:46.260 No.

00:10:46.580 And you're just nervous anyway, because you're just kind of nervous to be around girls and

00:10:49.600 it's like junior high or whatever.

00:10:50.920 And then she'd get, you'd like meet her for like, and you'd get the shirt and you were

00:10:55.020 just so nervous.

00:10:55.780 I feel like.

00:10:56.580 Were you like a nervous, were you nervous like in junior high and stuff?

00:11:00.520 Like, what were you like?

00:11:01.620 A little bit, maybe.

00:11:02.760 I don't know.

00:11:03.100 It depends on the situation.

00:11:04.020 I feel you.

00:11:04.480 Like, that's a scary situation right there.

00:11:07.740 Like, do you remember the first time a guy had to like ask you to a dance or anything

00:11:10.560 like that?

00:11:11.640 I don't know.

00:11:12.100 I didn't go to many dances.

00:11:13.440 Really?

00:11:13.920 Yeah.

00:11:14.240 No.

00:11:14.700 I wasn't much of a dancer.

00:11:16.760 Well, yeah.

00:11:17.020 I didn't go because I was a dancer.

00:11:17.980 No, no, no.

00:11:18.820 You know how I'm like a dancer.

00:11:20.640 Like going.

00:11:21.620 Oh, you didn't go.

00:11:22.480 Okay.

00:11:22.720 I think I went to one in like sixth grade or something.

00:11:25.020 Okay.

00:11:26.140 But, yeah.

00:11:28.580 Okay.

00:11:28.980 So you're growing up around there.

00:11:29.840 You're not dancing.

00:11:30.820 What are you doing over there?

00:11:33.040 Did you have a first job over there somewhere?

00:11:35.140 No.

00:11:35.600 I did track, though.

00:11:36.960 I did cheer.

00:11:37.760 You did track?

00:11:38.700 Mm-hmm.

00:11:39.680 Yeah.

00:11:40.620 What did you do?

00:11:41.460 Huh?

00:11:41.800 I played basketball with a couple of brothers, too.

00:11:45.100 Bring it up again, man, when you get it.

00:11:48.020 You did track because track is sort of a – that's me right there.

00:11:53.020 Damn.

00:11:53.280 Wait.

00:11:53.420 Which one?

00:11:53.940 This picture's faded out.

00:11:55.760 Number 34.

00:11:57.440 Okay.

00:11:58.040 Really?

00:11:58.820 Yeah.

00:11:59.300 And I'll tell you this.

00:12:00.760 Mr. Don on our team, who was the same age as me.

00:12:03.920 People called him Mr. Don.

00:12:04.840 He had two children.

00:12:06.740 He was a power forward.

00:12:07.640 Wow.

00:12:08.720 How old were you?

00:12:09.820 Probably 13.

00:12:10.620 Since high school?

00:12:11.460 You were 13 in high school?

00:12:12.680 Yeah.

00:12:13.000 Ball and son.

00:12:13.600 That's crazy.

00:12:14.760 Yeah, yeah.

00:12:17.020 So what were you doing over there then?

00:12:20.980 Just, yeah, sports.

00:12:22.060 I don't know.

00:12:22.880 What did you do when you were growing up?

00:12:24.920 Yeah, I don't know either, I guess.

00:12:26.360 Just like the normal things.

00:12:27.520 Yeah, that's normal stuff, I guess.

00:12:29.120 What would you guys do for fun in your town?

00:12:30.560 Like in our town, sometimes like when we got into high school, we would meet outside of

00:12:34.860 the Michael's craft store parking lot.

00:12:38.800 Yeah.

00:12:39.200 And people would go do stuff.

00:12:40.540 Okay.

00:12:40.860 Yeah, so similar.

00:12:41.820 Walmart.

00:12:42.600 Walmart, really?

00:12:43.300 Yeah.

00:12:43.620 But I don't know.

00:12:44.380 You didn't really want to go there.

00:12:45.480 Really?

00:12:45.900 Yeah, it was like ratchet.

00:12:46.820 Did y'all have like different parking lots for different like vibes?

00:12:50.620 What?

00:12:51.300 Oh, like this parking lot is this vibe?

00:12:53.160 This parking lot is more country?

00:12:54.520 Like this one's ratchet.

00:12:54.600 This one's, yeah, 100%.

00:12:55.700 Okay, at our school we had this, it was called the hick tree, prep tree, and then I guess

00:13:02.720 a little bit more like the urban tree kind of, you know, and that's where, yeah, people

00:13:07.520 would like be like more beatboxing kind of stuff or people like, you know, cipher and stuff

00:13:12.720 like that.

00:13:13.300 So those were the trees that we had kind of.

00:13:15.540 Yeah, okay, trees.

00:13:17.060 Yeah, and then parking lots.

00:13:19.180 I don't think so really.

00:13:20.540 Like we had to go in in New Orleans if you really wanted to get ratchet kind of.

00:13:23.600 Wait, where are you from?

00:13:24.360 I'm from Covington, Louisiana.

00:13:25.360 Okay, all right.

00:13:26.220 So it's just like a pretty regular place.

00:13:27.860 You're close to New Orleans?

00:13:28.920 Maybe 45 minutes.

00:13:30.100 Really?

00:13:30.420 You go a lot?

00:13:31.320 Oh, dude, we would go a lot.

00:13:32.920 But the problem was that we'd go over there and get drunk and then somebody would have

00:13:35.800 to drive home.

00:13:37.880 Who drove home?

00:13:38.480 Huh?

00:13:38.800 Yeah, that's a great question.

00:13:40.120 And that's what our parents asked every time we got back.

00:13:42.100 Oh, it's fucked up, dude.

00:13:43.140 Yeah, it was bad, dude.

00:13:44.640 Fuck, I love that city.

00:13:46.060 In New Orleans?

00:13:46.800 Yeah.

00:13:47.240 Yeah.

00:13:47.560 I love it.

00:13:48.120 I've been like twice.

00:13:48.980 Yeah?

00:13:49.220 I want to go back.

00:13:50.000 Did you go on tour?

00:13:50.900 Mm-hmm.

00:13:52.040 Was the first tour Drowning was the tour?

00:13:53.940 Yeah.

00:13:54.220 Yeah, but no, it's such a good one.

00:13:57.080 I watched a documentary about Katrina the other day.

00:13:59.820 You did?

00:14:00.280 And now I'm upset.

00:14:00.900 Do you remember it?

00:14:01.700 Yeah, dude.

00:14:02.220 My friend was a news reporter during Katrina.

00:14:04.700 He lived in Baton Rouge.

00:14:05.860 So they had to take him by helicopter every day into New Orleans and then helicopter him

00:14:09.960 out.

00:14:10.320 No way.

00:14:10.900 So he'd be there like interviewing people that were like, he's like, where are you sleeping

00:14:15.600 tonight?

00:14:15.900 They're like, we don't know.

00:14:16.620 He's like, all right, I got to get on this helicopter and leave.

00:14:19.140 That's fucked up.

00:14:20.300 Yeah.

00:14:20.700 What?

00:14:21.280 It was pretty sad.

00:14:21.940 I kind of feel for him some, but yeah, Katrina was pretty bonked, dude.

00:14:26.920 You remember it well?

00:14:28.200 I don't remember it that well, but I do remember seeing photos.

00:14:31.980 They had like, because the water was really high.

00:14:34.720 There were photos where people had like gotten, were like kind of swimming through the water

00:14:38.860 and then they got hung up on a fence, like a regular hided fence.

00:14:42.420 And then after the water went down, they found bodies just like hanging over the fence.

00:14:46.580 On the fences?

00:14:47.360 Yeah.

00:14:48.120 That's dark.

00:14:48.900 I didn't see that in the documentary.

00:14:50.480 It was pretty dark.

00:14:51.120 Like, yeah.

00:14:51.860 Did y'all get bad weather?

00:14:53.260 Like that.

00:14:53.840 I mean, that's a bit much.

00:14:55.740 Oh.

00:14:56.860 Oh.

00:14:57.260 You don't have to flash it like that.

00:14:58.360 I mean, we can look, we can close our eyes if we want, but yeah.

00:15:01.720 So stuff like that, like people all over.

00:15:04.200 This was another thing that happened that people don't realize.

00:15:06.940 People would be like going, because everywhere was covered in water.

00:15:10.280 So people would be going through somebody's backyard.

00:15:12.140 They had a swimming pool that people don't know while they're going through the water.

00:15:15.660 No.

00:15:16.100 Yeah.

00:15:17.040 And just, that's bad.

00:15:18.340 Just down in.

00:15:18.560 That's bad.

00:15:19.080 Deep end, dude.

00:15:19.740 That's scary.

00:15:20.480 The whole city's a deep end.

00:15:23.100 So yeah, that was kind of, I guess that was something.

00:15:25.960 Did they have any tragedies in your area growing up?

00:15:27.840 Were you guys like in the tornado belt or anything or head lice or anything?

00:15:30.780 Oh, definitely.

00:15:31.800 Head lice 100%, but tornadoes for sure.

00:15:35.460 Yeah.

00:15:35.900 Yeah.

00:15:36.240 Some of my friends definitely got their roofs taken.

00:15:38.340 Oh.

00:15:39.180 Yeah.

00:15:39.600 You?

00:15:40.780 We had a lot of head lice.

00:15:43.860 I think I grew up in the head lice belt or whatever, and you'd see people itching all

00:15:47.940 the time.

00:15:48.880 Yeah, serious.

00:15:49.380 I mean, one kid, he was just itching so much at Christmas, I remember he couldn't even

00:15:52.040 open his gifts because he was just.

00:15:53.240 No.

00:15:53.680 Yeah.

00:15:54.100 No.

00:15:54.700 No.

00:15:55.180 Yeah.

00:15:55.660 No.

00:15:56.880 Yeah.

00:15:57.340 He get rid of it?

00:15:58.080 I mean, I don't know.

00:15:59.000 You should ask.

00:15:59.860 I hope he's doing well.

00:16:00.980 Yeah.

00:16:01.200 I didn't get his name.

00:16:02.020 Um, and that's okay, you know, time passes and time heals all wounds.

00:16:06.260 Do you shave his head?

00:16:07.220 Let's talk more about you, okay?

00:16:08.860 I don't know.

00:16:09.620 I don't know what I'm talking about anymore.

00:16:11.860 Um, no, you've just had such an ascent.

00:16:14.700 It's really like, it's, um, it's rare, you know?

00:16:19.140 I mean, you've just had such an ascent, you know, with your career.

00:16:22.740 Um, what are, what are parts that are kind of scary right now?

00:16:26.340 Um, I think just decision making.

00:16:28.520 I get really like scared of making decisions.

00:16:30.460 Yeah.

00:16:30.800 Me too.

00:16:31.140 Yeah.

00:16:31.260 It's scary.

00:16:32.300 Yeah.

00:16:32.600 That part overwhelms me a lot.

00:16:34.140 Um, and just knowing like what's the right decision to make and trying to learn all that

00:16:37.840 probably, but.

00:16:39.200 And is it decisions about like what, what song to do?

00:16:41.440 Like maybe who to collaborate with?

00:16:42.780 Like what kind of decisions you mean?

00:16:44.200 Yeah.

00:16:44.440 And how to like deal with certain things too.

00:16:46.180 I think I'm learning and like, I don't know.

00:16:49.260 I feel like I'm also dealing with like, I've dealt with some like hate for the first time.

00:16:52.840 And that's something I'm trying to like figure out.

00:16:55.080 Yeah.

00:16:55.600 Yeah.

00:16:55.840 Cause I got such a short temper.

00:16:57.360 You do.

00:16:58.040 Yeah.

00:16:59.300 Damn.

00:16:59.620 So I got to figure out how to like navigate it.

00:17:01.760 Um, was it with the Ko Wetzel song, that kind of stuff or just other stuff?

00:17:05.420 I mean, that's definitely, yeah, that was prominent, but.

00:17:09.180 Yeah.

00:17:09.540 Cause you had a song with Ko Wetzel and people were upset.

00:17:11.880 Why was it?

00:17:12.400 I couldn't even figure out kind of why they were upset.

00:17:14.740 I think just cause I was on the song.

00:17:16.860 Oh, really?

00:17:17.660 Yeah.

00:17:18.100 Oh, that's a bummer.

00:17:19.160 Yeah.

00:17:19.680 I thought it was really a great, I thought it was really awesome.

00:17:21.960 Thank you.

00:17:22.420 I appreciate that.

00:17:23.220 I think they were just pissed that like, that's that it wasn't just him probably, you know?

00:17:29.780 Cause you know, sometimes you just want a song and it's like, you just want that person.

00:17:33.740 Yeah.

00:17:34.460 Yeah.

00:17:34.880 That's true.

00:17:35.260 But they were pissed.

00:17:36.460 They were pissed.

00:17:37.300 Damn.

00:17:37.580 Maybe people were really.

00:17:38.560 I got dogged.

00:17:39.300 Really?

00:17:39.980 Dogged.

00:17:40.760 Did anybody say a really good burn and you were like, yeah, that.

00:17:44.680 Does anybody, cause sometimes you read a comment and you're like, that's so good.

00:17:48.200 Yeah.

00:17:48.280 Yeah, I know.

00:17:48.880 I don't know.

00:17:49.900 I don't know.

00:17:50.340 There was a lot of, there was a lot of shit.

00:17:52.100 But, um, and would it just make you like kind of nervous about it or?

00:17:56.380 No, it just made me mad.

00:17:57.560 Oh, I see.

00:17:58.240 Cause like nobody would say that to me in person.

00:18:00.300 Yeah.

00:18:00.700 It feels so personal.

00:18:01.980 Yeah.

00:18:02.360 You know?

00:18:02.920 Do you ever read your comments?

00:18:04.300 Oh, I'll read stuff sometimes.

00:18:06.160 Yeah.

00:18:06.500 This guy looks homeless.

00:18:07.540 How'd this guy get a home?

00:18:09.900 That's fucked up.

00:18:11.280 Yeah.

00:18:11.660 Oh, the best.

00:18:13.260 This guy looks like somebody that might have matches on him.

00:18:15.840 That's what somebody wrote one time.

00:18:17.140 That's bad.

00:18:17.820 I don't know why, but that one feels really bad.

00:18:20.720 So yeah, sometimes you read stuff, it, uh, it really, it really kind of, you feel kind

00:18:26.740 of cooked by it and you can't write back cause then you're in the trend, then you're in

00:18:30.500 the bullshit.

00:18:31.160 No, you shouldn't.

00:18:31.920 Yeah.

00:18:32.180 You should never.

00:18:32.860 Do you?

00:18:33.420 Yes.

00:18:33.900 Nuh-uh.

00:18:34.320 Do you really?

00:18:35.000 Do you not?

00:18:35.780 Hell no.

00:18:36.540 You've never done it?

00:18:37.340 Ever.

00:18:37.660 You never wanted to do it?

00:18:39.860 Oh yeah, I wanted to.

00:18:41.220 Maybe you should do it.

00:18:42.160 Nah.

00:18:42.640 I think you should fucking do it.

00:18:43.580 You're bad.

00:18:44.500 I can already tell you're a horrible influence.

00:18:47.120 Um, so, okay.

00:18:48.900 So you're growing up in Huntsville and then how did things start kind of popping?

00:18:51.680 You're doing music, you're running track and what's going on.

00:18:54.760 You run by the music teacher and just hit some bars or what?

00:18:58.700 No, I started like posting online and then it just kind of took off from there.

00:19:03.340 Yeah.

00:19:04.020 On TikTok.

00:19:04.600 Yeah.

00:19:04.960 Wow.

00:19:05.200 So do you think that the, like, now, like, people want to, like, do most young people

00:19:10.680 think I need to be good at music or I need to be good on social media, I wonder?

00:19:16.900 Whoa.

00:19:17.500 That's a really good question.

00:19:19.160 I don't know.

00:19:19.780 Probably social media is their first thought, I think.

00:19:22.160 Yeah.

00:19:23.000 I don't know.

00:19:23.760 That's a great question.

00:19:24.960 I think it's kind of a joint effort, though.

00:19:26.780 So, like, because if you, the music is the first part, I'd say, actually, because you've

00:19:31.860 got to have something there, I think.

00:19:33.240 But then the next step is to make sure that can translate onto a screen.

00:19:37.640 Yeah.

00:19:37.840 And, like, in the beginning, were you just kind of screwing around or what happened?

00:19:43.360 I haven't seen your earliest TikToks.

00:19:45.080 That's good.

00:19:45.860 It's, yeah, I don't know.

00:19:47.840 I was just sitting in my, like, in my house in the basement and I would just, like, film

00:19:52.120 videos of me singing.

00:19:52.900 I was, like, doing covers and shit.

00:19:54.380 Oh, nice.

00:19:55.020 Yeah.

00:19:55.860 And then one of those blew up and then it was right when COVID happened.

00:19:59.100 So then I was just stuck at home.

00:20:00.400 So I just kept doing it.

00:20:01.480 Just in the basement?

00:20:02.620 Yes.

00:20:04.120 Oh, and so you just, were you, at first you were just doing covers?

00:20:06.460 Mm-hmm.

00:20:06.780 Oh, that's kind of perfect, huh?

00:20:08.280 Yeah.

00:20:08.720 It was a good start.

00:20:10.020 And then did you start writing some, like, what was one of your first songs that you wrote?

00:20:13.640 I don't even know.

00:20:14.700 I've been writing since I was, like, 11.

00:20:16.720 I just didn't post it when I was 11, which is so good.

00:20:20.600 Yeah.

00:20:21.860 Yeah, because, I mean, yeah.

00:20:23.960 Imagine that.

00:20:25.180 Right.

00:20:26.160 Yeah.

00:20:26.680 You know, even you get your, even it does well at 11 and then you're like, fuck, I'm 12

00:20:31.200 and I have all this, it's a huge, like, if you want to be able to really, like,

00:20:36.440 have a career, that's such a long career to have, to even get to 30.

00:20:41.060 100%.

00:20:41.380 Yeah.

00:20:41.920 Also, and then you look back and you're like, things you say when you're 11, it's not how

00:20:45.740 you feel when you're 12.

00:20:48.140 Totally different.

00:20:49.240 So different.

00:20:50.240 Like, man, I wish these girls would leave me alone.

00:20:52.100 That's 11.

00:20:53.140 Right.

00:20:53.280 And then 12, you're like, damn, where the hoes at?

00:20:55.180 It's so different.

00:20:56.340 Some kids are, and I don't see that kind of stuff.

00:20:58.020 We don't have to, fuck.

00:20:59.800 Is this an early one?

00:21:01.120 No, this is so bad.

00:21:01.660 This is the beginning and it's far down there.

00:21:03.680 That was fast.

00:21:04.160 Oh my God.

00:21:05.460 A lot of these look like, um, missing person photos.

00:21:09.080 This is so scary.

00:21:10.160 You're just, hey, just scroll through really quick again like that a little bit.

00:21:13.920 Oh.

00:21:14.560 A lot of these look like, uh, like, Jesus.

00:21:19.860 Wow, there's a lot.

00:21:20.840 You were so brave.

00:21:21.840 That's a lot.

00:21:22.500 No, and it was scary because people would, like, make fun of you at high school.

00:21:26.000 Oh, I'm sure.

00:21:26.780 It's a crazy time for that to happen.

00:21:28.740 Yeah, to put yourself out there like that and then go to school, like, if you have one

00:21:32.420 that doesn't really pop.

00:21:34.200 Yeah, and a bunch of them didn't pop before one popped.

00:21:36.880 Yeah.

00:21:37.520 Yeah.

00:21:38.000 But when one popped that next day, you were like, what's good?

00:21:41.380 Oh, yeah, wow, that was so embarrassing.

00:21:43.060 And you'd see the, like, where you can see that people would send something.

00:21:46.080 You know what I'm talking about?

00:21:46.920 The little arrow.

00:21:47.520 Oh, yeah, the arrow.

00:21:48.180 Yeah, that's the best marker.

00:21:49.600 But when there's, like, three, you're like, fuck.

00:21:52.000 And, you know, it's just three people in your school would be like, look what the fuck

00:21:55.260 this chick's up to.

00:21:56.400 Stop.

00:21:56.840 Oh, bad.

00:21:58.280 That didn't happen to you?

00:21:59.300 No, because we didn't have it.

00:22:00.680 And so you were like, if you would sing in front of your class, whatever, and people

00:22:04.320 were like, you suck or whatever, you know?

00:22:05.940 Did you do that?

00:22:06.920 No, I didn't.

00:22:07.720 Can you sing?

00:22:09.400 There's one video of me singing.

00:22:11.200 The boys will find it.

00:22:12.800 What did we have?

00:22:14.780 Oh, I remember, like, talent show is where you got to do something.

00:22:18.160 That's crazy, dude.

00:22:18.960 And so since we didn't have TikTok, we had an actual talent show where people had to do

00:22:22.320 a talent.

00:22:23.080 And that was your one chance.

00:22:24.520 If you wanted, you basically got one TikTok for the year, and it was live at night.

00:22:28.100 You only had one of them?

00:22:29.020 That was it.

00:22:29.580 Because it was like, you get up a talent show, and that would be it.

00:22:33.420 And people would just, the next day, people would be like, you suck.

00:22:37.420 Did you sing at the talent show?

00:22:38.960 You know what I'm singing?

00:22:39.720 I'm going to do this.

00:22:40.120 This is you?

00:22:40.940 Mm-hmm.

00:22:41.320 It's a while back.

00:22:42.300 Wow.

00:22:42.680 Different haircut.

00:22:44.240 Yeah, cool.

00:22:45.160 We grew up in the church.

00:22:53.920 There's no way.

00:22:54.780 That's not really me.

00:22:55.540 Sorry, sorry.

00:22:56.440 That's not you?

00:22:57.340 Somebody made this and sent it.

00:22:59.180 Hell no.

00:22:59.780 That's not you?

00:23:01.760 That is you.

00:23:02.760 That guy looks like mentally unwell.

00:23:04.120 I mean, it looks like me, but that guy is not.

00:23:05.580 Theo, that's you.

00:23:07.180 I pray one day that God turns me into that.

00:23:09.300 Do you have a cousin?

00:23:10.420 I don't know.

00:23:12.080 But if he is, I'm going to take his life and his skills.

00:23:14.880 No.

00:23:16.020 And I'm going to become that guy.

00:23:16.960 You're related to him.

00:23:17.960 I hope I am.

00:23:18.860 Y'all are, have you talked to your mom?

00:23:21.020 Yeah, not as much, but that's just our history.

00:23:23.680 But, okay, so TikTok starts to happen.

00:23:27.980 You come out of the basement.

00:23:29.080 You finally realize, I'm doing well enough on TikTok, I can come out of the basement.

00:23:32.920 Yes.

00:23:33.580 And then how do you start to write your first song?

00:23:35.980 How does it evolve a little bit from there?

00:23:37.760 Do you write your first song by yourself?

00:23:40.040 Yes.

00:23:40.540 I think I like, something like made me so sad or mad or something.

00:23:44.760 I think I went through a breakup or something.

00:23:46.380 And I just wanted that person to know how I felt so bad.

00:23:49.760 So I would just like write a song and post it.

00:23:51.320 And I'm like, well, he's going to see it.

00:23:53.320 So that was my thought process.

00:23:56.180 Yeah, because a lot of your stuff, it's like, dang, she is.

00:24:00.220 A lot of your stuff gives me, like, bereaved, like, revenge chick vibes.

00:24:07.740 What does bereaved mean?

00:24:09.100 I don't know.

00:24:10.140 I liked that word.

00:24:11.720 A close relation of friend through their death.

00:24:14.580 Oh, maybe I'll use this as well.

00:24:16.980 Oh, bereaved.

00:24:18.120 Go down one more.

00:24:19.120 To be deprived of a loved one through a profound absence.

00:24:22.440 Fuck, that's sad.

00:24:23.860 Wow.

00:24:24.420 I'm going to have to use this word more.

00:24:26.320 Yeah.

00:24:27.000 Yeah, because sometimes you put stuff in your, I'm like, God, who's she mad at, you know?

00:24:30.780 Or where's, some of it has a little bit of revenge in it, though.

00:24:34.500 100%.

00:24:34.820 Yeah.

00:24:35.240 Yeah.

00:24:36.360 And it's kind of like, all right, interesting.

00:24:38.760 That's the most motivating emotion, I'd think, so.

00:24:41.020 Do you think?

00:24:42.060 100%.

00:24:42.380 What do you think?

00:24:43.540 Right?

00:24:44.640 What motivates you the most?

00:24:46.220 That's a great question.

00:24:47.480 Yeah, probably some spite, probably.

00:24:49.160 Spite.

00:24:49.860 Which is just, yeah, it's like revenge's fancy cousin that wears a tie, I guess.

00:24:53.660 100%.

00:24:54.020 Yeah, what is it?

00:24:57.540 Oh, proving something to people?

00:24:59.760 Right.

00:25:00.320 Spite.

00:25:01.180 Yeah.

00:25:01.520 I'm telling you.

00:25:02.080 Yeah, it's like, oh, I'll show these, and then I use, you know, things you don't say

00:25:07.160 at church or say to your grandmother at your grandmother's house, you know?

00:25:10.620 Exactly.

00:25:12.100 So you start to write a song, right?

00:25:14.060 Mm-hmm.

00:25:14.440 You write your own songs?

00:25:15.760 Yeah.

00:25:16.460 Yeah?

00:25:16.940 Yes.

00:25:17.220 I'll collaborate with people sometimes, but I always am a writer.

00:25:19.980 Really?

00:25:20.440 Yeah.

00:25:20.580 So your first album was mostly your own?

00:25:22.160 Yes.

00:25:22.960 Wow.

00:25:23.540 Yeah.

00:25:24.400 Dude, it was so good.

00:25:25.820 Thank you.

00:25:26.380 Yeah.

00:25:26.720 Damn.

00:25:27.000 I mean, I feel weird as like a man saying that, because I almost feel like it's, I don't want

00:25:30.960 to say it's music for women, because music can be for anybody.

00:25:33.100 It can be for anybody.

00:25:33.860 Yeah.

00:25:35.160 Then were you going through it?

00:25:37.340 I don't, probably.

00:25:38.700 I've been going through it my whole life.

00:25:40.080 So I think I could just, I was like, what the fuck is going on here?

00:25:44.240 And so, yeah, there were so many things I was like, yeah, I just loved it.

00:25:48.900 And it was kind of weird, because I would tell my buddies, I was like, have you heard

00:25:51.760 this girl?

00:25:52.800 And they're like, what the fuck are you talking about, dude?

00:25:55.860 You know, put some guar on, bro, or something, you know, put on something dangerous.

00:26:01.400 Let's be real.

00:26:02.560 Most guys would wear a t-shirt every day of their lives if they could.

00:26:06.720 The problem is there's not often a t-shirt that you can wear to work and also out on a

00:26:12.740 hot date.

00:26:13.980 Well, today's sponsor, Cuts, has changed that.

00:26:18.040 But Cuts t-shirts are such high quality, wrinkle-free, and so buttery soft that you

00:26:25.020 can look like you're dressing up even when you're dressing down.

00:26:28.540 Yep, that's right.

00:26:29.400 They're wrinkle-free.

00:26:30.680 Thank heavens.

00:26:31.520 You never have to substitute comfort for fashion ever again with Cuts.

00:26:40.360 CutsClothing, C-U-T-S-Clothing.com.

00:26:44.300 What I like about this shirt is that I can look nice, but I can also feel casual.

00:26:51.820 I could show up to anything, a christening, a bakery, a gender reveal, or a nice dinner

00:26:59.960 and feel like, hey, I'm okay to be here and I look good.

00:28:44.960 Like, what happens from there?

00:28:46.540 Because you're at home, you're building some cloud in your town.

00:28:50.440 Yeah.

00:28:50.840 Um, I don't know.

00:28:53.800 I think, I think there was this one song, people started reaching out through email.

00:28:58.420 People would just email or slide in the DMs.

00:29:01.380 Really?

00:29:01.700 And it kind of went through there.

00:29:03.020 Yeah.

00:29:03.180 Okay.

00:29:03.840 But I don't really remember how all that happened.

00:29:05.740 It felt like such a blur of time.

00:29:07.580 And my mom also like helped me with a lot of it.

00:29:10.140 She did?

00:29:10.640 Because I was so young.

00:29:11.500 Yeah.

00:29:11.940 And is she pretty smart?

00:29:14.340 Yeah.

00:29:15.280 God bless her.

00:29:16.060 Good woman.

00:29:16.580 What does she do for a job?

00:29:18.700 Um, she works at a transmission shop.

00:29:22.080 No way.

00:29:23.260 Really?

00:29:23.660 Family business.

00:29:24.600 No way.

00:29:25.360 Your family does, um, your family's not trainees.

00:29:28.280 What's the term called?

00:29:31.660 Transmissioners.

00:29:32.420 Yeah.

00:29:33.500 That's awesome.

00:29:34.300 That's gotta be it.

00:29:35.520 Dang.

00:29:36.260 So your dad sometimes has like grease on his arms or whatever?

00:29:39.120 No, I mean, no, I don't know.

00:29:41.720 But how do they get him out of there?

00:29:43.460 What, the transmission shop?

00:29:45.140 I don't know.

00:29:46.680 I don't know.

00:29:47.200 She works, she doesn't like build transmissions.

00:29:49.300 Okay.

00:29:49.660 So she's not a mechanic.

00:29:50.700 No.

00:29:51.260 I see.

00:29:51.620 That'd be crazy though.

00:29:53.000 Okay.

00:29:54.140 Yeah.

00:29:54.480 Could be a little bit strange maybe.

00:29:56.200 My mom dated a mechanic I think for a little while.

00:29:58.820 Really?

00:29:59.620 Yeah.

00:30:00.060 I don't know if she, I think she just needed new tires to be honest with you.

00:30:03.080 Damn.

00:30:03.620 But, you know, you gotta do what you gotta do.

00:30:07.160 So.

00:30:07.800 Happens.

00:30:08.360 Yeah.

00:30:09.000 Things are in alignment.

00:30:09.620 She gets the new tires though?

00:30:10.880 Yeah, we got them.

00:30:11.520 That's what I'm talking about.

00:30:12.220 It's all about that PSI, mommy.

00:30:18.180 That's what we need.

00:30:19.060 Filling bad boys up, dude.

00:30:22.240 So I saw you in Boston perform.

00:30:24.940 How do you get from where we're at when we're, like, where you're in your town to that place?

00:30:30.860 Like your mom puts deals together, something.

00:30:33.540 Yeah.

00:30:33.660 You fly to where?

00:30:34.300 Los Angeles?

00:30:35.560 New York.

00:30:36.100 New York.

00:30:36.560 Yeah.

00:30:37.040 Whoa.

00:30:37.420 Was that your first time ever going?

00:30:39.280 Yeah.

00:30:40.080 A hundred percent.

00:30:40.940 I think the first place I ever went was Miami.

00:30:43.180 And I spent a week there and just made music for a week.

00:30:46.180 With producers?

00:30:47.880 Yeah.

00:30:48.320 Okay.

00:30:49.200 And that was my first time, like, going anywhere for music.

00:30:51.720 It was my first time, like, going on a plane other than for, like, cheerleading.

00:30:55.460 Yeah.

00:30:55.920 It was crazy.

00:30:57.120 It must have been so exciting, huh?

00:30:58.960 It was so exciting.

00:31:00.240 It was so exciting.

00:31:00.960 And I just remember being so, like, oh my God, I want to do this the rest of my life.

00:31:04.480 I, like, fell in love with it.

00:31:05.460 But, yeah, I don't know.

00:31:07.600 Everything just feels like a blur.

00:31:09.020 Yeah.

00:31:09.220 Like, how do you feel when people ask you?

00:31:11.640 Oh, yeah.

00:31:12.200 Now things certainly feel like a blur.

00:31:13.940 And then sometimes you can't even remember what you were doing.

00:31:16.120 It's like, I don't even know.

00:31:17.760 You're right.

00:31:18.240 You just somehow, like, got where you are.

00:31:20.080 Yeah.

00:31:20.680 You know?

00:31:21.180 Yeah.

00:31:21.420 Like, I kept, I've always kept working.

00:31:23.220 I just kept going forward.

00:31:24.540 Exactly.

00:31:25.100 You just have to keep doing it.

00:31:26.440 Yeah.

00:31:27.340 So, yeah.

00:31:27.980 So, maybe we don't even have to learn about all that stuff about you.

00:31:30.660 You know?

00:31:30.980 I was just, here we are.

00:31:32.980 Do you have, like, a pre-show routine that you do?

00:31:34.940 Like, tell me about it.

00:31:35.820 Take me through some of that.

00:31:37.020 Okay.

00:31:37.300 Pre-show, what I do.

00:31:38.600 I'll have a Red Bull every time.

00:31:41.800 And I'll put on, lately I put on Sexy Red every time.

00:31:46.380 I mean, you got to do it.

00:31:47.580 Shake that ass for Drake.

00:31:48.880 Exactly.

00:31:49.840 That's what I put on before I go on.

00:31:52.220 Get It Sexy is the song.

00:31:53.520 Oh, yeah.

00:31:54.080 The last song I play before I go on.

00:31:56.400 And, yeah, it's really all I do.

00:31:57.860 It's not too complicated.

00:31:59.440 That's it?

00:32:00.020 Yeah.

00:32:00.940 And what's in your green room kind of?

00:32:02.460 You got some candles in there?

00:32:03.460 What do you got?

00:32:03.960 I try to have some candles in there.

00:32:06.720 Like, a good vanilla one.

00:32:08.460 Oh, yeah.

00:32:08.620 I like vanilla.

00:32:09.160 Like, something really sweet, probably.

00:32:10.980 Like a, yeah, something that reminds you of, like, a car freshener.

00:32:13.460 You can tell you grew up poor if your candles match your car freshener smells, I think.

00:32:17.000 Damn, that's fucked up.

00:32:17.840 That's true, though.

00:32:18.660 That's so true.

00:32:19.280 Damn.

00:32:20.260 Yeah, I actually, I realized that a lot.

00:32:22.100 Like, hey, light up that new car smell candle, you know?

00:32:24.960 I get it, though.

00:32:27.440 Yeah.

00:32:27.620 Bath and Body Works.

00:32:28.660 Oh, God, dude.

00:32:29.740 You go there?

00:32:30.420 No, but I used to go there to get, like, presents for your girlfriend or something.

00:32:33.940 You have to go in there.

00:32:35.080 It's a good place.

00:32:35.800 And it was so embarrassing.

00:32:37.160 Some lady comes over in an apron, and she's like, yeah, can I help you?

00:32:41.220 You know, like, I'm in love with somebody.

00:32:42.820 I gotta prove it to them, you know?

00:32:45.320 I need a damn scent that expresses my fucking feelings, lady.

00:32:48.520 How many times did you go there, you think?

00:32:49.860 Probably three or four times, you know?

00:32:50.820 For girls, the same girl?

00:32:53.280 Yeah, probably two different girls, maybe.

00:32:55.520 Damn.

00:32:56.280 But it was what it was.

00:32:58.300 I got in there and got out, you know, did what I had to do.

00:33:02.400 Huh?

00:33:02.700 It did the trick, though?

00:33:03.660 Did the trick.

00:33:04.260 Every time it's gonna work.

00:33:05.560 Yeah.

00:33:06.500 My first girlfriend was kind of like a, she was, like, pretty masculine, I guess.

00:33:10.880 And she would, the school bus would come, and my brother's friend, it would pick them up first.

00:33:15.620 So they'd already be on the bus, and she would pick me up and give me a kiss goodbye at the school.

00:33:20.440 Wow.

00:33:20.940 How old were we?

00:33:21.760 She played second base.

00:33:22.740 We were seventh grade.

00:33:23.540 I don't know what grade she was.

00:33:24.360 She might have been 40 years old.

00:33:25.780 But she would fucking, I remember, and they would, you could hear them, the windows would be up,

00:33:30.300 because the driver would get mad if he put them down.

00:33:31.880 You could hear them howling through the bus windows.

00:33:34.440 No.

00:33:35.040 Oh.

00:33:35.660 What was her name?

00:33:37.080 I don't want to say it, because I'm sure she's a beautiful.

00:33:40.900 Sorry, I didn't mean to do you like that.

00:33:41.540 I think she just, you know, some people, she's a late bloomer, you know?

00:33:44.160 No, I actually feel like girls probably, like, mature faster at that age.

00:33:47.900 Oh, she was mature, dude.

00:33:49.860 She was tall?

00:33:50.620 She played second base.

00:33:51.840 Oh, come on, dude.

00:33:52.980 This is a lot.

00:33:55.640 Damn, that's a weird image in my head right now.

00:33:57.360 This is a lot.

00:33:58.100 And I didn't hold onto that gait or whatever.

00:34:00.640 She was really, she held me up, dude.

00:34:03.700 I didn't have a choice.

00:34:04.700 She played second base, I think, on the, for what sport?

00:34:07.780 I don't know.

00:34:08.460 Hopefully not baseball.

00:34:09.780 But all I'm saying is, was she was a tough gal, and I was just glad that we had each

00:34:14.620 other for the time that we did.

00:34:16.060 And that's the one you got Bath and Body Works for?

00:34:17.780 Yeah, I remember getting her something.

00:34:19.220 And she wanted, like, a lot of, like, Atlanta Braves, like, baseball gear and stuff like that.

00:34:23.500 So she did play baseball.

00:34:24.800 Yeah, she really did.

00:34:25.320 You had it right the first time.

00:34:26.500 She played, yeah, she played a woman's baseball.

00:34:30.820 Anyway, yeah, I'm trying to think, what do I have in there?

00:34:33.120 So I'll have, like, a yoga mat.

00:34:34.660 Oh, yeah, they're sexy right there.

00:34:35.900 Bring her up.

00:34:36.840 Wow, that was a good one.

00:34:38.560 Yeah, that was fun, dude.

00:34:40.040 She's so good.

00:34:41.020 And I just got, and I walked in this, if you're listening on audio, it's just a picture of

00:34:47.100 me and Sexy Red, and then there's, I have this Suicide Boys shirt on, and I'd just gotten

00:34:51.680 that, there was a room next door, I was asking, I was like, you guys know where there's a

00:34:54.860 clothing shop?

00:34:55.440 And, like, the people right next door have a bunch of clothes, and I just walked in there,

00:34:59.680 and they had that shirt.

00:35:00.580 Like, right next door to you?

00:35:01.560 Of Suicide Boys.

00:35:02.220 You ever heard of them?

00:35:02.880 Of course I've heard of them.

00:35:04.080 Yeah.

00:35:04.320 I just found a song that I really like by them.

00:35:06.140 Is it called Dust in a Vase?

00:35:08.180 No, is that one good?

00:35:09.260 Yeah.

00:35:09.460 I only know one song.

00:35:10.640 Really?

00:35:10.940 And I love it.

00:35:12.140 Maybe I should dive in.

00:35:13.640 Or the rose.

00:35:14.500 I'm trying to think of the one I like.

00:35:17.080 But Sexy was cool, man.

00:35:19.060 And yeah, I tried to invite her out to do something, but she got pregnant.

00:35:24.780 Damn.

00:35:25.200 Which is kind of the same thing.

00:35:26.520 Because a lot of women are like, I can't, I have to wash my hair.

00:35:28.660 But she's like, hey.

00:35:29.400 I got pregnant.

00:35:31.660 That's one hell of an excuse.

00:35:33.580 And I know, I was like, I even asked my buddy, I was like, you don't think she got pregnant

00:35:36.760 just so she didn't have to go out with me?

00:35:38.120 He's like, you think someone would get pregnant because she doesn't want to go out with you,

00:35:41.420 dude?

00:35:41.660 That's, you're an idiot.

00:35:43.180 I mean, that's commitment, though.

00:35:44.900 It is commitment.

00:35:45.740 That's some real, like, people pleasing shit right there.

00:35:47.800 Yeah.

00:35:48.900 Yeah.

00:35:49.240 So anyway.

00:35:50.940 Oh, and then, so yeah, before my show, what will I do?

00:35:53.560 Yoga for like 34 minutes?

00:35:55.460 Really?

00:35:55.900 Actually?

00:35:56.680 Yep, 100%.

00:35:57.620 Like regular yoga, hot yoga?

00:35:58.980 I do yoga with Adrian.

00:36:00.260 It's just on the computer.

00:36:01.380 Okay.

00:36:01.720 And I'll put my yoga mat in my green room, and then I will have like a couple sips out

00:36:07.120 of a coffee, and I'll listen to some FGL or some Boosie, or maybe some Morgan, and then

00:36:15.160 I'll go out there.

00:36:16.100 Okay.

00:36:16.620 I like this routine.

00:36:17.880 Yeah.

00:36:18.260 The yoga's good.

00:36:19.460 Yoga makes you feel good.

00:36:20.380 It's actually, how long have you been doing it?

00:36:22.040 I've been doing it for maybe six years.

00:36:23.980 Wow.

00:36:24.300 So I do it probably three times a week right now, but it just makes you feel, I don't

00:36:28.480 know, it makes you feel pretty alive, I guess.

00:36:30.320 You do like complicated yoga?

00:36:32.180 Hell no, dude.

00:36:32.920 You said six years?

00:36:33.800 You should be.

00:36:34.120 Like bird or bald eagle or whatever that stuff is.

00:36:36.540 Damn, you know the names for all of them?

00:36:37.960 Whatever that other one is, Hurt Camel or something.

00:36:39.940 I don't do any of that.

00:36:40.800 I don't know.

00:36:41.240 What does that one look like?

00:36:42.140 I haven't heard of that one.

00:36:43.160 You got to be a woman to be able to do that one, I think.

00:36:45.740 But it's, yeah, I think there's just a lot of different ones.

00:36:49.800 So, you got to do some cool collabs, yo.

00:36:54.980 Right?

00:36:55.520 Yeah.

00:36:56.520 Some great collabs.

00:36:57.880 Pretty crazy.

00:36:59.840 Jelly Roll called you his little sister.

00:37:02.320 What did he say?

00:37:03.360 Yeah, you talked with him, didn't you?

00:37:04.500 Yeah?

00:37:04.900 Yeah.

00:37:05.460 Good guy.

00:37:05.680 I love Jelly Roll.

00:37:06.320 I mean, who doesn't?

00:37:07.160 No, he's the best dude I've ever met.

00:37:09.340 I know.

00:37:10.160 Such a great man.

00:37:11.220 I'm not sure if there were more of them.

00:37:12.260 Or if they just turned him into two eclairs.

00:37:14.140 No.

00:37:14.760 But no, you got to have Jelly Roll.

00:37:17.400 Jelly Roll's too good.

00:37:18.860 When you guys made this video, Wild Ones, this was, um, because this whole thing's just

00:37:23.000 like, it's not one shot.

00:37:24.100 Was it?

00:37:24.320 How long did you guys, how many times did you guys do it?

00:37:26.120 I don't know.

00:37:28.000 You know what's fucked up?

00:37:29.020 I don't know if.

00:37:30.400 Were you really there?

00:37:31.500 No, that to me, I was there.

00:37:32.820 But I don't think, I don't know if I've watched the full video.

00:37:36.180 I don't like to watch them back.

00:37:37.960 Really?

00:37:38.440 Yeah, I know.

00:37:38.940 It freaks me out.

00:37:39.580 I don't like to watch it.

00:37:40.660 Yeah, why?

00:37:41.480 Fuck, is that bad?

00:37:42.820 I should start watching the whole video.

00:37:44.300 No, I don't listen to my podcast.

00:37:46.540 Really?

00:37:47.620 No.

00:37:47.980 No, that'd be weird.

00:37:48.920 Yeah, and you would just be sitting there forever, and then if people see you listening

00:37:52.240 to it.

00:37:53.420 Fuck.

00:37:54.080 Sometimes I'll feel bad, like I'm in the airport editing it or something, and I'll

00:37:57.180 see someone, if they see my computer, and like, oh God, it's sad.

00:38:00.620 Theo listens to his own podcast.

00:38:02.920 You think so?

00:38:04.120 Makes me feel sad sometimes, but.

00:38:05.680 Right, I feel weird.

00:38:06.920 It's like, it's not my business to be watching it.

00:38:09.460 That's a good point.

00:38:11.060 Right, it's your business to be making it.

00:38:12.540 That's it.

00:38:14.900 Yeah, so like, yeah, what are some collaborations?

00:38:16.780 Because like, so collaborations so far, you've had Coe, Jelly Roll.

00:38:22.580 Diplopology.

00:38:24.100 Diplopology.

00:38:24.840 Maren Morris.

00:38:25.820 Maren Morris.

00:38:27.060 That's.

00:38:27.860 That's a lot.

00:38:28.680 That's it.

00:38:29.680 People love collabs, I feel like.

00:38:31.440 I'm a collaborer.

00:38:32.520 Really?

00:38:32.860 I love collabs.

00:38:33.960 Yeah.

00:38:34.720 Yeah.

00:38:35.140 Do you prefer if it's with a male or woman?

00:38:37.540 I've only done one with a girl, but I think I'd like to do more.

00:38:40.320 Yeah.

00:38:40.620 It depends on the song, you know?

00:38:42.060 Yeah.

00:38:42.460 You gotta, you gotta pick and choose wisely, you know?

00:38:45.400 And is that kind of the hard part?

00:38:47.040 Like, so do somebody pitch you a collaborator first or, and then they pitch you a song or

00:38:52.080 how does that work?

00:38:52.760 Or do they pitch both of you guys a song at the same time?

00:38:55.500 Well, since I write my stuff, it's like, I'll make a song and I always make it just

00:38:59.140 for me.

00:38:59.700 I never like make it thinking about like, this is going to be a collab.

00:39:03.140 Right.

00:39:03.620 So I'll make it and then I'll just have to delete my second verse.

00:39:05.860 Oh, and let them put something in.

00:39:08.300 Cause they have to get to write their own stuff, huh?

00:39:10.240 Yeah.

00:39:11.300 Most of the time.

00:39:12.480 Yeah.

00:39:12.640 Especially if it's a guy, cause like the perspective's normally different.

00:39:15.220 You feel me?

00:39:15.820 Yeah.

00:39:16.280 Who would you collab with if you were a singer?

00:39:18.740 Oh, wow.

00:39:19.460 Would you be a singer or would you be like a rapper?

00:39:22.440 Oh, I was hoping you were going to say dancer, but I'll, um, oh, I don't know about a rapper.

00:39:28.220 If you had to start a music career right now.

00:39:32.600 You know what I would be?

00:39:33.500 I would think I would be like a country DJ kind of.

00:39:36.180 Okay.

00:39:36.780 That's fire.

00:39:37.500 Cause I don't think there are enough of those.

00:39:38.960 Right.

00:39:39.380 Well, I hate is you go to EDM club or something like that.

00:39:41.420 You go to like a, uh, you know, even in Vegas, you got some of the nightclubs.

00:39:44.860 A lot of times it's like, you know, it's Diplo, John Summit, Chainsmokers, all good stuff.

00:39:50.520 Right.

00:39:51.040 Love fun to go to, fun to listen to, but they never have like that, a DJ that's kind of like

00:39:55.880 a country DJ, but the same place.

00:39:57.620 I feel like if you did like a country DJ in some of those places, it would like, people would

00:40:01.980 love that too.

00:40:02.700 You got a point.

00:40:03.640 You know, I really feel like there aren't enough of those.

00:40:06.480 It's crazy.

00:40:07.160 What are you doing?

00:40:07.780 Side hustle.

00:40:08.820 Well, then I just think people would, uh, I think people would be like, what the fuck

00:40:13.440 is this dude doing?

00:40:16.140 And if it was bad, it's like, I'm already doing one thing, but if I could do something,

00:40:21.140 oh, I know what, I would be a Christmas singer.

00:40:23.140 You think so?

00:40:23.900 And you only sing at Christmas, like caroler?

00:40:25.980 Yeah, maybe that way I only work one month out of the year.

00:40:29.800 So, and when they know when I show up is business, no, not a caroler, dude.

00:40:34.440 I'm not going door to door.

00:40:35.080 What is a Christmas singer?

00:40:36.360 What do you mean?

00:40:36.600 A Christmas singer is a dang, a good person that sings Christmas and sings about Christmas,

00:40:42.140 boy.

00:40:42.920 Bells will be ringing, that kind of stuff.

00:40:45.260 That was you.

00:40:45.920 Don't fucking lie to me.

00:40:46.640 That guy was you.

00:40:48.080 That was you.

00:40:48.580 That guy was a pervert, man.

00:40:49.780 You sing just like him.

00:40:51.280 No, that guy's a Pentecostal, and that guy's been through a lot.

00:40:53.920 You're fucking with me right now.

00:40:55.200 I don't know.

00:40:56.060 That's a great, but that guy's had a lot of tough times in his life.

00:41:00.660 Yeah, I would think, yeah, I would probably be, oh, uh, oh, jazz, maybe something like

00:41:06.760 that.

00:41:07.260 Like Michael Buble?

00:41:09.000 Yeah.

00:41:10.360 Yeah, and I would have like a cool name, too.

00:41:12.660 What would it be?

00:41:13.800 You could have your name, I feel like.

00:41:16.080 Theovan, maybe?

00:41:16.740 I'd be like, oh, I'd have like a name, like Mystery or something, like a stripper's name,

00:41:21.320 but for a man.

00:41:22.060 So like what?

00:41:23.060 Mystery would be my name.

00:41:24.400 That's good.

00:41:25.080 Mystery Jackson.

00:41:26.080 But it's for Christmas.

00:41:27.720 Yeah.

00:41:28.400 I like it.

00:41:29.040 And it would be called Mystery Toe, like mistletoe.

00:41:31.560 That's good.

00:41:32.660 You've already thought this out.

00:41:34.160 You've already thought it out.

00:41:36.160 This is all horrible.

00:41:37.120 We're supposed to be talking about you, Jessie.

00:41:39.040 So what else can we talk about here, then?

00:41:41.620 So you have a new album that's coming out.

00:41:44.800 Yes, I do.

00:41:45.600 I do have a new album that's coming out.

00:41:46.940 And it's called?

00:41:50.360 Damn, dude.

00:41:51.160 You have vengeance towards men, huh?

00:41:54.660 Not all of them.

00:41:55.640 Really?

00:41:56.160 Yeah.

00:41:56.580 But there's a couple that really must have just.

00:41:59.500 Yeah.

00:41:59.980 I mean, somebody had to do it.

00:42:01.320 Yeah, somebody had to.

00:42:02.440 Somebody, yeah.

00:42:03.380 Somebody always has to break our heart, huh?

00:42:05.560 Damn, that happened to you?

00:42:06.780 Oh, I think it's happened to everybody.

00:42:08.140 I think it's one reason why so many people can like relate to all types of things, probably.

00:42:12.840 It's kind of crazy that we break each other's hearts, you know?

00:42:15.600 I know, and it's common.

00:42:16.760 Yeah.

00:42:17.220 And it does happen to everybody.

00:42:19.400 Dude, it's so crazy because like how you feel, your heart, it's pretty important.

00:42:23.900 And then you freaking, you're like, here you go.

00:42:28.140 And then everything is good for a little while.

00:42:31.140 And then we let each other down, you know?

00:42:34.020 Yeah.

00:42:35.100 Fuck.

00:42:35.920 I know, you're right.

00:42:37.320 When did you get your heart broken, you think?

00:42:39.560 Even a timeline.

00:42:40.600 We don't need names.

00:42:41.800 I don't think it was really a.

00:42:44.700 I mean, things happen and you like go through things and you see things.

00:42:48.800 And I think it's more, with this album specifically, I think it's more of like a build up of things.

00:42:54.440 Like something set me off and then it just made me think about everything else and I was just fucking angry.

00:42:59.320 And then that's, yeah.

00:43:01.520 And when you get angry, what do you do?

00:43:02.820 You go to a shooting range or anything like that?

00:43:04.520 That's exactly what I do.

00:43:06.060 No, I'm just kidding.

00:43:06.920 Oh.

00:43:07.360 I've never done it, but I want to try.

00:43:08.700 Shooting range?

00:43:09.220 Yeah, do you go?

00:43:10.040 I took a date one time to a shooting range.

00:43:12.200 It's an interesting place to do that.

00:43:13.900 It was and it wasn't.

00:43:14.980 Here's what I realized.

00:43:15.900 As I get there, I was trying to be cool and stuff up front, at the counter or whatever.

00:43:21.160 And we checked out a couple guns.

00:43:22.480 Dude, you can check out guns.

00:43:24.220 And then here's the crazy part.

00:43:26.140 The guy's like, all right, just here's your guns.

00:43:28.320 Go in there, booth four or whatever.

00:43:30.840 And the guns were just sitting there and I was like, are you going to bring the guns in there for us?

00:43:34.080 And he's like, no, you guys bring them in.

00:43:35.600 And he put them just like in this little like kind of like a bin they would give you at the airport or whatever.

00:43:40.020 So I'm like carrying these two guns in there.

00:43:42.920 And the girl's like, this is cool.

00:43:44.280 This is fun.

00:43:45.060 And then I didn't know what to do.

00:43:46.620 No one had ever taught me how to use a gun or anything.

00:43:48.500 They didn't teach you?

00:43:49.240 Huh?

00:43:49.780 No, they ask you if you know.

00:43:51.480 And you lied?

00:43:52.280 Yeah.

00:43:52.500 Why would you lie about that?

00:43:53.580 That's a fucking crazy thing.

00:43:54.640 Because, dude, because.

00:43:56.160 Well, I had to impress this chick, bro.

00:43:57.840 And so I'm in there and I was like, oh, use yours first.

00:44:02.280 Did she know?

00:44:02.640 She didn't.

00:44:03.320 Apparently, she didn't know either.

00:44:05.060 Well, you're so fine.

00:44:06.520 Well, yeah, but she should know, dude.

00:44:08.720 And, you know, because women need to be able to defend themselves or whatever.

00:44:11.820 And so I was like, use your gun.

00:44:15.400 And she's like, I don't know how to use a gun, you know.

00:44:17.680 And then I realized like, oh, shit, I don't know how to use a gun.

00:44:20.620 And so I picked it up.

00:44:22.100 And then I realized you're in there and there's other people.

00:44:24.200 You could shoot anybody if you want.

00:44:26.100 I've never been in.

00:44:26.820 What does it look like?

00:44:27.720 It's like, um, yeah.

00:44:30.360 Could you really?

00:44:31.360 Oh, 100%.

00:44:32.060 There's no like walls?

00:44:33.220 Oh, there's walls.

00:44:34.020 But like you're facing your target and there's a wall on the side of you.

00:44:36.780 But right around the edge of the wall is just the next person shooting.

00:44:39.780 Really?

00:44:40.320 So you could literally, like if you hated somebody, you could just shoot over that way.

00:44:44.080 You think that happens a lot?

00:44:45.160 I, I.

00:44:46.160 You think that's a common thing?

00:44:47.620 I don't know.

00:44:49.120 But I just hope it doesn't.

00:44:50.820 I was amazed they gave us these guns.

00:44:53.720 So then I said, look, I'm going to be honest with you.

00:44:56.960 Let's go back to the front to talk to the guy.

00:44:58.660 I said, I think these guns.

00:44:59.780 You had to double back.

00:45:00.820 That's bad.

00:45:01.560 That's so bad.

00:45:03.120 I said, I think these guns are broken.

00:45:04.900 That's what I told him.

00:45:05.480 That's what you said.

00:45:06.640 And so we went back and like, he gave us some kind of like easier guns to use or whatever.

00:45:11.480 And it was pretty fun.

00:45:12.620 So you just picked some complicated.

00:45:14.480 I picked like some SIG, some SIG, SIG, SIG.

00:45:18.120 What's a gun called?

00:45:19.100 SIG.

00:45:20.620 SIG.

00:45:22.080 Bring it up.

00:45:24.780 SIG SAR.

00:45:25.980 Yeah.

00:45:26.760 Yeah.

00:45:27.240 Yeah.

00:45:27.480 It was just, it was fine, but it was just a lot.

00:45:30.040 But after that, I learned how to use a firearm, they call it.

00:45:33.860 And now you know.

00:45:34.720 Yeah.

00:45:34.980 And you could do it at any time.

00:45:36.800 Yeah.

00:45:37.540 And I live in Tennessee.

00:45:38.520 It's a state where you can.

00:45:40.100 Damn, you live there?

00:45:41.020 You can do what you got to do.

00:45:41.920 Yeah.

00:45:42.240 I live in Nashville.

00:45:42.980 You can.

00:45:43.380 Damn, really?

00:45:43.960 Yeah.

00:45:45.240 I used to live there.

00:45:46.300 You did?

00:45:46.740 Good place.

00:45:47.300 Do you miss it or not?

00:45:49.040 I do.

00:45:49.540 I just moved like two weeks ago.

00:45:50.880 Where'd you move to?

00:45:51.360 L.A.?

00:45:51.900 Santa Monica.

00:45:52.760 Yeah.

00:45:53.020 No way.

00:45:53.760 You're by the beach, yo.

00:45:54.760 Damn.

00:45:55.240 I really like it.

00:45:56.280 Yeah.

00:45:56.460 But I do miss Nashville.

00:45:57.600 Yeah.

00:45:58.020 Yeah.

00:45:58.200 Well, it's such a different world.

00:45:59.540 It's so different.

00:46:00.360 I mean, Nashville's so quiet.

00:46:02.200 You think so?

00:46:02.920 I think so.

00:46:03.420 I don't think so.

00:46:04.240 Really?

00:46:04.440 I think it's loud.

00:46:06.840 Depends on where you live, though.

00:46:09.020 Yeah.

00:46:09.400 I mean, I just live in kind of like a regular neighborhood, I guess.

00:46:11.840 You're in the suburbs?

00:46:13.460 No.

00:46:14.240 Okay.

00:46:14.600 I'm in the city.

00:46:15.520 Okay.

00:46:16.060 I would get out in the suburbs.

00:46:17.500 I've been looking at some houses, but I've just been touring so much and here sometimes

00:46:20.560 that I'm like, if I bought a different house, I wouldn't be able to be there to live

00:46:25.420 in it.

00:46:26.060 Yeah.

00:46:26.420 I feel you.

00:46:27.360 I feel you so heavily.

00:46:29.140 Yeah.

00:46:29.320 So Dirty, that's the new single off of the album?

00:46:34.420 Yeah.

00:46:34.720 And the album's called If These Men Come Around, I'm Gonna Kill Them?

00:46:37.300 What's it called again?

00:46:37.640 That's exactly what it's called.

00:46:38.500 Okay.

00:46:40.460 Okay.

00:46:41.100 Damn, that somehow is almost even worse.

00:46:44.000 You'd almost rather have somebody shoot you than to say you were the devil, you know?

00:46:46.960 Damn, you think that's really bad?

00:46:49.360 What?

00:46:49.800 To shoot somebody?

00:46:50.880 Well, yeah.

00:46:51.600 Yeah.

00:46:51.940 Yeah.

00:46:52.120 No, no, no.

00:46:52.960 That's bad, right?

00:46:54.160 Yeah.

00:46:54.480 Yeah.

00:46:54.820 The name of the album?

00:46:55.700 Yeah.

00:46:56.000 I think it's bad.

00:46:56.780 Yeah.

00:46:57.220 I think it's good.

00:46:58.020 That's good.

00:46:58.380 I think it fits you.

00:46:59.460 It actually makes me really happy that you think it's bad.

00:47:01.860 Right.

00:47:02.280 I haven't really told it to any men yet.

00:47:04.240 Really?

00:47:04.700 Yeah.

00:47:05.080 But I love your reaction, though.

00:47:06.860 Thanks.

00:47:07.260 It makes me feel good.

00:47:08.660 Damn.

00:47:09.660 Yeah, you are, you got the dark arts in you, I think.

00:47:14.180 You know?

00:47:14.880 And that's okay.

00:47:15.960 Maybe you were a Halloween baby.

00:47:19.380 Do you have a first single off of it?

00:47:21.260 I do.

00:47:21.740 The song that just came out, The Dirty, Teddy Swims.

00:47:24.480 Oh, yeah, with Teddy Swims, dude.

00:47:26.980 Yeah.

00:47:27.560 He's such a, I saw this great TikTok of him the other day.

00:47:32.500 Somebody was singing on the street, and then he walked up and sang with him.

00:47:35.040 I know what you're talking about.

00:47:35.820 Yeah.

00:47:35.960 So good.

00:47:37.060 Find that up if you can.

00:47:38.440 Teddy Swims.

00:47:39.260 Craziest voice ever.

00:47:40.100 Damn, I haven't even seen this one.

00:47:52.680 I don't know.

00:47:55.160 The devil's knocking at my door.

00:47:58.940 Oh, how many times, how many times did I tell you I'm no good at being alone now?

00:48:11.720 Get out of town.

00:48:13.720 Yeah, you have to join me.

00:48:15.680 Really?

00:48:16.460 You go.

00:48:16.740 You go.

00:48:17.740 You go.

00:48:18.080 I lose control.

00:48:26.540 Damn.

00:48:27.540 That wasn't seen.

00:48:29.800 She just realized, I'm out of a job.

00:48:33.140 I'm falling apart right in front of you.

00:48:37.140 Can't you see?

00:48:39.180 Wow.

00:48:40.880 Was that so cool?

00:48:42.100 That's great, Nick.

00:48:42.840 Thanks.

00:48:43.800 Was that pretty wonderful to get to, what was it like when you first met him?

00:48:48.080 So crazy.

00:48:49.280 He has one of the best voices ever.

00:48:51.720 Oh, it sounds like he has a thousand years just trapped inside of him.

00:48:54.720 That's a great way to describe it.

00:48:56.160 I like that a lot, actually.

00:48:57.460 Like somebody just screaming through a fucking wishing well of beauty.

00:49:00.860 A hundred percent.

00:49:02.160 Yeah, it just sounds like he's hurting.

00:49:04.960 Yeah, it's like...

00:49:06.480 It's Chris Stapleton-y.

00:49:08.940 Wow, it is, huh?

00:49:10.020 Yeah, right?

00:49:10.940 I'd say so.

00:49:11.860 Yeah, a hundred percent.

00:49:12.680 Yeah.

00:49:13.160 Yeah, it's Chris Stapleton-y.

00:49:14.340 Dude, I went and saw John Mayer recently.

00:49:17.120 I went and saw the Grateful Dad and Company and John Mayer's plays with them.

00:49:22.900 And sometimes he'll hit a note and it feels like he's trying to find the exact note that

00:49:29.400 will take us all to the end of time or something.

00:49:32.700 I feel like he's specifically good at that.

00:49:34.520 Yeah, he's just like...

00:49:36.020 He just rides that thing.

00:49:37.540 That's exactly what he does.

00:49:38.320 He's just such a crazy boy.

00:49:41.240 And then here's a couple of Viettes right here.

00:49:43.200 Bring them up.

00:49:43.740 And this is Yon Mayer.

00:49:50.820 Damn, this fucking kid is ripping, bro.

00:49:55.760 Full allowance this week.

00:49:59.960 God damn, yeah, yes.

00:50:04.860 Look at his face.

00:50:06.920 His...

00:50:07.840 How does he even know how to feel all this?

00:50:09.900 I got a game on tour right now.

00:50:16.600 This kid could also be 40 years old, dude.

00:50:19.720 We don't know what's going on, bro.

00:50:22.480 Unreal if that's a real person and not AI.

00:50:26.880 Okay, so the new album.

00:50:28.280 What's like...

00:50:28.660 Tell me about it then.

00:50:31.680 Well...

00:50:32.080 Are there new collaborations on this album?

00:50:34.340 Are there people...

00:50:35.240 And did you reach out to them?

00:50:36.360 How did it come about?

00:50:37.480 What happened?

00:50:37.960 Take me there, Ms. Murph.

00:50:39.700 I'm going to take you there.

00:50:40.420 Okay.

00:50:41.340 So, first and foremost, a Teddy collab.

00:50:44.920 I had this song, Dirty, that I made probably about a year ago today.

00:50:49.800 And I posted it and it went viral.

00:50:52.400 And I was just about to drop it.

00:50:54.780 And then Drake texts me.

00:50:57.300 He slides into my DMs.

00:50:58.820 Damn.

00:50:59.760 And he was like, you trying to let me get on Dirty.

00:51:03.160 Really?

00:51:03.520 And I was like, yeah.

00:51:03.860 Is that a euphemism?

00:51:05.080 What does that mean?

00:51:05.780 I don't know.

00:51:06.440 I don't know what he's into.

00:51:07.960 What do you mean?

00:51:08.880 Like, what was he saying?

00:51:09.820 Was he flirting, you think?

00:51:10.840 Or he was asking about music?

00:51:12.220 No, it's about music.

00:51:13.180 Okay.

00:51:13.580 And I was so excited because I love Drake.

00:51:15.460 Big Drake fan.

00:51:16.620 I think he's incredible.

00:51:17.680 Yeah.

00:51:19.640 So, that happened and I was kind of just like waiting on that.

00:51:24.100 And it was like some back and forth.

00:51:25.400 And then it just ended up like not working.

00:51:27.680 It disappeared.

00:51:28.480 Yeah, it just didn't.

00:51:29.240 It didn't happen.

00:51:30.140 Wow, that had to be freaking amazing.

00:51:31.720 Were you scared to write back?

00:51:32.700 How long after you saw his message?

00:51:34.860 This is the question.

00:51:36.140 How long after you saw, okay, Drake sent you a freaking message and you're like, how long

00:51:40.560 do you wait to even open it?

00:51:42.220 I don't know.

00:51:43.060 I don't know.

00:51:43.280 I was definitely freaking out.

00:51:44.640 He's one of my favorite, like, just like songwriters in general.

00:51:47.900 Oh, yeah.

00:51:48.400 It's like if somebody from the Bible sent you a message or something.

00:51:50.640 He's so good.

00:51:51.820 Yeah.

00:51:52.960 But I don't, yeah, no, I was definitely freaked.

00:51:55.000 I was like, what do I, how do you do that?

00:51:56.900 What do I do?

00:51:57.400 Do I even wear something nice to text him to message him back?

00:52:00.820 Is that how you feel?

00:52:01.840 I mean, I was like a little like, I don't know what to, I didn't know what I thought.

00:52:06.340 Yeah.

00:52:06.580 I was like, hey, I definitely asked a couple people.

00:52:09.740 I was kind of.

00:52:10.160 No, 100%.

00:52:10.580 Yeah.

00:52:11.120 You have to.

00:52:11.960 Like, what do you say to, yeah.

00:52:14.080 No, 100%.

00:52:15.140 And so then you wrote him back?

00:52:16.820 No, I did write him back.

00:52:17.720 But anyways, it didn't happen, but it made me realize that I did want, I wanted somebody

00:52:23.040 on the song.

00:52:23.920 I wanted it to be two people.

00:52:25.240 So, um, and I was like, fuck, well, who should it be?

00:52:28.600 Who could it be?

00:52:29.280 Even though you just written it for you?

00:52:31.440 Yeah.

00:52:31.920 Right.

00:52:32.540 Yeah.

00:52:32.700 That's cool though.

00:52:33.380 I just wanted it, you know?

00:52:34.780 Yeah, no.

00:52:35.220 He made me, he really made me realize like this song would be sick as a collab.

00:52:38.780 So I was like, who, who should do it?

00:52:42.020 So I asked my fans, I just like asked TikTok and they were like, I got an overwhelming response

00:52:47.900 of Teddy Swims.

00:52:49.020 Really?

00:52:49.500 And once I saw it, I was like, oh my God, a fucking chorus.

00:52:52.580 Dude is crazy.

00:52:53.620 So I hit him up and he like did a verse and it, it's incredible.

00:52:57.860 So that's how that happened.

00:52:59.680 Um, and then I also have a club with.

00:53:03.420 No way.

00:53:04.780 Really?

00:53:05.740 Bro, his energy is, his energy is strong.

00:53:09.980 Strong.

00:53:10.600 He brings energy, man.

00:53:12.020 That guy is, uh, he's his own fucking thing.

00:53:16.080 He's like, almost like a, somebody cut a power cable and it's just fucking that one that's

00:53:20.040 just like that on the street, you know, like the city hasn't come to fucking clamp it down

00:53:23.880 or whatever yet.

00:53:24.500 You know, a hundred percent.

00:53:26.180 I love his energy is always, anytime you're around him, you feel like kind of like just

00:53:30.660 lift it up, you know, a hundred percent.

00:53:33.080 That's a, that's a great way to describe it.

00:53:34.840 Yeah.

00:53:34.960 He's, he's a crazy, crazy character.

00:53:38.280 And he just started even playing music.

00:53:40.180 I think like five years ago or something.

00:53:41.740 It was really recent, right?

00:53:42.840 Yeah.

00:53:43.080 I'm, which is wild.

00:53:45.200 It's crazy.

00:53:46.040 What did he do before he did like, I don't know.

00:53:48.500 Somebody said, I think he was in lawn care or something.

00:53:51.120 Yeah.

00:53:51.300 Something like that.

00:53:52.020 So it's like, wow.

00:53:53.320 What a 360.

00:53:54.500 Yeah.

00:53:55.640 Let's see.

00:53:56.440 And lawn care.

00:53:56.680 This is so helpful.

00:53:58.000 Lawn care is dangerous.

00:53:59.340 Swims.

00:54:00.020 Teddy Swims grew up in Conyers, Georgia over there.

00:54:02.420 His father introduced him to soul music at an early age.

00:54:05.460 Um, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and Al Green.

00:54:08.020 Swims family were American football enthusiasts.

00:54:10.040 He had been playing American football for 10 years.

00:54:12.140 During his second year at Salem high school, he must've been held back.

00:54:16.280 And if he played for 10 years in high school, Jesus, no judgment, dude.

00:54:21.640 I did two years in, uh, in sixth grade.

00:54:25.560 Did you actually?

00:54:26.460 Yeah.

00:54:26.920 It never leaves your system.

00:54:28.120 What happened?

00:54:28.620 Mom said they needed me back.

00:54:30.020 Really?

00:54:30.520 She said they wanted me back.

00:54:31.820 Did you fail?

00:54:32.780 Uh, I wouldn't say failed.

00:54:33.960 I would say, yeah, we had some disagreements maybe on the invoice at the end of the year.

00:54:38.820 But, um, yeah, you know, that's what we did.

00:54:42.960 Um, yeah, Teddy's so magical, huh?

00:54:45.880 You know, that's one thing that's amazing about TikTok, um, is just how many artists you can find, you know?

00:54:51.880 So many talented people on there.

00:54:53.740 And there's, like, things that'll come across, like, um, I know you had Maddox Batson on your show.

00:54:59.000 He came on the podcast.

00:54:59.740 And I just saw, like, his videos, and people would tag me in him and be like, oh, Theo, this looks like you when you were a kid, or this reminds me of you.

00:55:06.200 And so then, next thing you know, like, he showed up, and we went for a ride.

00:55:09.860 I got a Cybertruck.

00:55:10.620 We went for a ride in it.

00:55:12.200 And, um, just ridiculous, you know?

00:55:15.000 Um, and we got to listen to, like, his first new song.

00:55:18.480 Um, yeah, he's so.

00:55:20.520 He's such a sweet kid.

00:55:21.660 He is.

00:55:22.220 He's always, like, so just, uh.

00:55:25.100 Oh, that's his mom right there, too.

00:55:26.700 She's pretty vibe-y, but she's married.

00:55:28.040 Um, but, yeah, that was him, man.

00:55:31.000 We had a nice time.

00:55:32.020 But, yeah, that's one thing.

00:55:33.200 It's, like, oh, you can hear a lot of, um, yeah, you can just hear, like, a lot of new artists.

00:55:37.440 People can break through really quick.

00:55:39.460 A hundred percent.

00:55:40.380 Like, that situation is crazy.

00:55:41.920 He's so young.

00:55:42.620 I know.

00:55:43.240 What is he, like, he's, like, 13?

00:55:44.820 Yeah, I mean, that would be so scary.

00:55:46.720 That's a crazy age.

00:55:47.540 Because then it's, like, I don't think you develop any of your own, like, thoughts or real, like, or not thoughts, but.

00:55:52.360 Yeah, no.

00:55:52.900 He's a fucking adolescent or whatever it's called.

00:55:55.160 A hundred percent.

00:55:55.580 And he's also gonna, he's gonna be so massive.

00:55:57.320 Yeah, it's, like, people compare him to Justin Bieber all the time, you know?

00:56:00.220 A hundred percent.

00:56:00.800 So that's also tough because you're, like, how does he just be himself?

00:56:04.080 He seems to be good at it, though.

00:56:05.340 Yeah.

00:56:05.500 I really do feel like he's, like, made for it.

00:56:08.040 You know what?

00:56:08.600 That's kind of funny.

00:56:09.880 Yeah, he kind of just acts already like he's a star.

00:56:12.400 He does.

00:56:12.980 Yeah.

00:56:13.080 He just has that about him.

00:56:14.060 Yeah, he just fits in.

00:56:14.860 Like, it's okay with him.

00:56:15.960 He doesn't even second guess it.

00:56:17.120 No.

00:56:17.560 Yeah.

00:56:17.700 That's also a thing of being so young, though.

00:56:18.920 I don't think it's, like, it registers really.

00:56:20.600 Yeah.

00:56:21.160 The kid doesn't really, he probably doesn't really, like, it doesn't feel like it's crazy

00:56:24.180 just because you're young, I feel like.

00:56:25.840 Right, because also I think at that age you feel like, almost all kids probably feel like

00:56:29.660 a star anyway because you're, like, just that vibrant, crazy energy, you know?

00:56:32.680 It's just that age.

00:56:33.600 Yeah.

00:56:33.780 Right, so he's just, like, no, but he's great, dude.

00:56:37.420 Yeah, that was pretty cool.

00:56:38.720 I'm trying to think of who else that I'll follow or listen to.

00:56:41.420 Yeah, who's your, like, favorite artist?

00:56:43.240 Who do you listen to?

00:56:43.680 Right now I listen to Red Clay Strays so much.

00:56:45.560 Have you heard of them?

00:56:46.000 Yo, so fucking good.

00:56:48.300 She comes from Super Spies, go to the private school.

00:56:52.940 I know that was you.

00:56:53.680 I fucking know it was you.

00:56:55.800 Yeah, God, they're good, dude.

00:56:58.080 And they have, after when I'm leaving stage, that's a song that we play all the time.

00:57:04.560 They got that song.

00:57:05.600 That's your walkout track?

00:57:06.680 I just want to be loved.

00:57:09.800 They remind me of, like, the Beatles.

00:57:11.300 They remind me of Aerosmith a little bit.

00:57:13.300 My walkout track on, yeah, when I'm leaving.

00:57:15.440 I can't remember what it's called.

00:57:17.200 I love that you love them.

00:57:18.040 They're so good.

00:57:19.060 God, they're so good.

00:57:20.340 They're from down near you.

00:57:21.300 They're from Mobile.

00:57:22.320 Really?

00:57:22.520 No, I didn't even know that.

00:57:24.460 That checks out.

00:57:25.380 They're from Mobile.

00:57:25.820 That really checks out.

00:57:27.720 I met you, like, two years ago.

00:57:30.240 Yeah.

00:57:30.620 We met at your agent's house.

00:57:32.180 A&R.

00:57:34.820 A&R.

00:57:35.340 Yep.

00:57:36.520 And your brother was there.

00:57:37.980 Your brother writes with you.

00:57:39.800 Is that right?

00:57:40.600 Yeah, he tours with me.

00:57:41.800 He tours with you.

00:57:42.380 Guitar.

00:57:42.800 He's a guitarist.

00:57:43.520 Yeah.

00:57:44.020 Nice.

00:57:44.760 So was he, like, part of some of your, like, how did that, did you have to incorporate

00:57:50.000 him?

00:57:50.220 Did he have to audition?

00:57:51.100 Or was it just, like, it's a two-person deal?

00:57:53.080 It's a two-piece.

00:57:54.140 We always just kind of, like, played together.

00:57:56.600 Like, he's always just been obsessed with guitar, and he writes, too.

00:57:59.220 He's incredible.

00:58:00.700 But just growing up, that's just what we did.

00:58:03.120 So it just felt natural, I feel like.

00:58:05.020 And it's so nice to have him on the road.

00:58:06.980 Is it?

00:58:07.520 Yeah.

00:58:08.460 You know?

00:58:09.240 Why?

00:58:09.500 Because you get to do things together?

00:58:11.360 Yeah.

00:58:11.740 It's just, like, also a sense of, like, home and family.

00:58:14.780 Yeah.

00:58:16.420 Yeah.

00:58:17.040 He's a real country dude.

00:58:19.260 Are you guys pretty close?

00:58:20.640 Yeah.

00:58:21.380 I'd say so.

00:58:22.060 You have siblings?

00:58:22.900 Yeah.

00:58:23.260 I've got three siblings.

00:58:24.140 They're pretty good.

00:58:25.500 My sister's a nurse now.

00:58:27.280 Damn.

00:58:27.580 Wow.

00:58:28.300 And I'm like, Jesus, dude.

00:58:30.400 I would not let her go near me.

00:58:33.060 Why?

00:58:33.800 I just, I couldn't imagine.

00:58:38.080 She's like, if I pulled up, I was, like, hurt or something.

00:58:40.500 She's like, I'm going to help you.

00:58:41.240 I'll be like, get the fuck away.

00:58:42.480 You really?

00:58:43.420 I mean, I think she's probably educated, you know.

00:58:45.900 She knows what she's doing, but I wouldn't let her.

00:58:47.860 She's got to.

00:58:48.820 And she can prescribe pills and stuff now.

00:58:51.760 Damn.

00:58:52.900 So.

00:58:53.740 I mean.

00:58:54.520 We'll see what happens.

00:58:56.040 Okay, so what else on the album?

00:58:58.640 And then how far after do you tour?

00:59:00.260 Like, do you have a release strategy?

00:59:01.660 Like, do you start to strategize more these days with social media?

00:59:04.760 Or do you feel like you do things kind of whimsical?

00:59:10.100 Or is it like, do you have, like, almost a calendar where you know when you're going to put out what?

00:59:14.720 I feel like, yeah, no, we're, strategizing is a big part of it.

00:59:18.840 That's another part that really overwhelms me.

00:59:20.940 I don't want to do that.

00:59:22.220 I just want to, like, put out the music and then step away.

00:59:24.960 You always seem very, like, on your socials, it always seems like super, just you kind of having a good time.

00:59:32.660 Like, just, you know, singing some of the bars of the songs and that's it.

00:59:36.900 You know, it just feels, it feels like you're just at home just doing whatever you want, you know?

00:59:41.000 Yeah.

00:59:41.760 That's how I'd like to keep it.

00:59:43.340 But you do have to, like, think about when you're going to do this and when you're going to do that and why you're doing, you know?

00:59:47.560 But I hate that stuff.

00:59:48.440 It really freaks me out.

00:59:49.360 Yeah?

00:59:49.860 Yeah.

00:59:50.600 Anything that's too planned freaks me out, I think.

00:59:52.760 Oh, yeah.

00:59:53.640 You know?

00:59:54.700 Oh, yeah.

00:59:55.260 Well, once you start, and I start noticing, too, it's like, well, let's do this or do the edit.

00:59:58.700 And it's the second you start to feel that it's becoming too edited, I can already tell it's not going to be good.

01:00:04.280 100%.

01:00:04.600 Or it's not going to be real, you know?

01:00:06.200 Oh, that's a great, yeah, no.

01:01:26.640 Wow.

01:01:27.100 I know.

01:01:27.760 I never thought I was going to move ever, ever.

01:01:29.780 Really?

01:01:30.380 Yeah, because I love this.

01:01:30.980 From where?

01:01:31.340 You moved from Nashville to L.A.?

01:01:32.780 Yeah.

01:01:33.120 I just love the South so much.

01:01:34.620 Yeah.

01:01:35.320 And I don't know.

01:01:36.180 I was never like a big fan of L.A., honestly.

01:01:38.320 Yeah.

01:01:39.020 But now I'm here.

01:01:40.600 And how do you – and first you moved to Athens to Nashville?

01:01:45.400 Athens – Huntsville to Athens.

01:01:47.260 To Athens to Huntsville to Nashville to L.A.

01:01:49.720 Okay.

01:01:50.420 And why did you move out of Athens?

01:01:52.660 It was just really – like I said, I went to middle school and high school there.

01:01:57.840 And it was really, really small and super conservative, like so conservative.

01:02:02.720 Really?

01:02:03.080 It's in the Bible Belt?

01:02:03.920 Like heavy Bible Belt.

01:02:06.220 And I like –

01:02:07.760 Were you with the church?

01:02:09.760 Yeah.

01:02:10.080 I like sang at church for a little bit, but I cuss a lot in my songs and shit, and that

01:02:17.420 was like a really big deal there.

01:02:22.280 Especially when me doing cheer was like really serious.

01:02:24.600 They would like make me like run laps if I like posted something and there was a cuss

01:02:28.600 word in it.

01:02:29.520 I would have to like run miles for every cuss word.

01:02:31.540 Really?

01:02:31.840 At school?

01:02:32.400 Yeah.

01:02:32.660 Public school too, which is just fucked.

01:02:34.620 But then like –

01:02:38.240 Another lap, Murph.

01:02:39.080 The guys could do it, which is fucked.

01:02:41.480 Oh, yeah.

01:02:42.080 Most of the guys are allowed to curse in the South, but women are mostly for – more

01:02:46.460 for pregnancy.

01:02:47.840 No, 100%.

01:02:48.620 Yeah.

01:02:48.940 That's exactly what they were trying to say.

01:02:51.420 Pregnancy and recipes.

01:02:52.780 That's like – those were like – used to be the big women thing.

01:02:56.240 100%.

01:02:56.560 Yeah.

01:02:57.220 Did you have the baby class at high school?

01:03:01.420 The men didn't have to do it.

01:03:02.940 We had to do woodshop or whatever.

01:03:04.760 Yeah.

01:03:04.880 But the girls had a baby class?

01:03:06.540 The girls had a baby class.

01:03:08.060 Is that everywhere?

01:03:09.920 Babies and then I think the second semester was – I want to say omelets.

01:03:14.220 No.

01:03:14.700 Or breakfast, babies and breakfast.

01:03:16.120 Are you serious?

01:03:17.160 Yeah.

01:03:17.700 That's the class?

01:03:18.780 I mean, look, dude.

01:03:19.860 That feels fucked.

01:03:21.100 That's how you keep a family together.

01:03:22.980 Guys couldn't take it?

01:03:23.800 Babies or breakfast.

01:03:24.960 Some guys took it.

01:03:26.360 You were allowed to take it?

01:03:27.740 Yeah.

01:03:28.200 Some guys did.

01:03:29.620 Home economics course is often used to learn how to cook, how to do taxes, and how to

01:03:33.940 perform child care tasks.

01:03:35.600 That's fair.

01:03:36.400 That's fair.

01:03:37.000 But yeah, I feel like guys should do that too though, no?

01:03:39.300 Yeah.

01:03:39.660 Some guys – yeah.

01:03:40.480 Some – we had woodshop.

01:03:41.660 You had to learn how to build a birdhouse.

01:03:43.500 That's fun.

01:03:44.000 We had to build a – how to like de-hoof a horse or whatever.

01:03:47.320 A couple different stuff we had to learn.

01:03:48.260 You really had to learn how to do that?

01:03:49.500 Yeah.

01:03:49.760 That's some Kentucky stuff, right?

01:03:51.400 They had a farrier come and he would show us how to do the thing.

01:03:53.820 Have you ever had to do it?

01:03:54.740 I'm like, dude, I don't even – I'm fucking – I can barely like a – like we get one

01:03:59.640 pair of Reeboks a year, dude.

01:04:00.980 If I do this to my shoes, mom's going to fucking – mom's going to drive over my legs

01:04:05.640 with her car, dude.

01:04:06.820 God.

01:04:06.940 How often do you think people use that stuff?

01:04:10.440 Do you ever think about that?

01:04:11.320 How like you're never really using anything you learned in school?

01:04:15.040 Oh, yeah.

01:04:15.680 What are you using?

01:04:15.960 I think the stuff we should teach kids is like, hey, how do you be nice to somebody

01:04:20.000 else?

01:04:20.260 How do you recognize maybe if somebody else is having a tough day?

01:04:23.320 Like emotional intelligence.

01:04:24.360 Yeah.

01:04:25.080 And it's so – it's scarce.

01:04:27.920 You don't even realize how scarce it is.

01:04:29.380 Emotional intelligence?

01:04:30.100 Fuck yeah.

01:04:30.960 100%, especially I think with my generation.

01:04:33.300 Really?

01:04:34.020 Yeah.

01:04:35.000 100%.

01:04:35.400 There's just like a lack of like depth.

01:04:37.500 Is there really – do you feel like less of an interaction in your generation?

01:04:41.360 Fuck yeah.

01:04:42.220 I mean for everybody right now though and I think just because of like – I mean it's

01:04:46.720 because of social media but like it's weird because we're so connected but we're so disconnected.

01:04:51.640 Yeah.

01:04:53.520 Young adulthood is no longer one of life's happiest times.

01:04:56.800 People are sad.

01:04:57.760 People are really sad.

01:04:58.840 That's – why though I wonder?

01:05:00.680 Yeah.

01:05:00.880 Why do you notice?

01:05:01.460 Because you have a lot of fans that are kind of like – you know, you do touch on that

01:05:05.020 space of like I want to feel something, you know?

01:05:08.280 Yeah.

01:05:08.640 No, I don't know why.

01:05:09.700 I do think it's because of like you're spending hours a day like on a phone and you're seeing

01:05:14.720 all these things and it's – you're not meant to see that much I don't think as a human.

01:05:18.800 Yeah.

01:05:19.260 And you see it and you're like – then your brain is just going crazy and then you compare

01:05:22.720 yourself to everything.

01:05:23.600 Oh, that's the truth.

01:05:24.840 You know, everybody does it.

01:05:25.880 I think even adults do that now.

01:05:29.100 But it's – I think it's really damaging for people like in high school and middle

01:05:32.220 school.

01:05:33.340 Well, you compare yourself so much – and here's one thing I realize.

01:05:36.480 It's like you may love somebody, right?

01:05:38.700 But then if you see a thousand pictures of other – that are not even real – like

01:05:44.960 they've been adjusted or filtered.

01:05:46.820 Or then you see those, then you're going to think, oh, this – you can't help but

01:05:52.720 feel some attraction to some of it.

01:05:55.080 Really?

01:05:55.200 You think so?

01:05:56.000 I think sometimes it's hard because here – the phone isn't playing fair.

01:05:59.120 It's like if there's filters and stuff, that's not even the real person or the lighting

01:06:04.300 isn't real.

01:06:04.800 You're getting tricked.

01:06:05.340 Right.

01:06:05.600 You're getting tricked.

01:06:06.180 But we're all getting tricked into thinking that there's something better out there.

01:06:09.160 That's fucked up.

01:06:09.960 In relationships, it's fucked up too.

01:06:12.060 Yeah.

01:06:12.420 You know how many like relationships end probably because of that?

01:06:15.420 So many Snapchat.

01:06:16.660 You know how many relationships end because of Snapchat?

01:06:19.160 You got Snapchat?

01:06:20.700 I have Snapchat.

01:06:21.560 I don't use it.

01:06:22.560 Don't use it.

01:06:23.240 I do not use it.

01:06:23.940 It's not good for you.

01:06:24.900 I ain't using it.

01:06:25.160 Don't even do it.

01:06:26.120 I'll never use it.

01:06:26.980 Don't even do it.

01:06:27.780 I wouldn't.

01:06:28.620 Don't do it.

01:06:29.300 Well, I will not.

01:06:32.160 Yeah, but I don't even know.

01:06:33.480 Yeah, people are – and sometimes – now, a couple years ago, I would look at Snapchat,

01:06:38.640 but sometimes you would open it up and there would just be like a ding.

01:06:41.880 What?

01:06:43.080 Cooter or something in there.

01:06:44.280 That happens to you.

01:06:45.520 Yeah.

01:06:45.720 That's such a thing.

01:06:46.620 You're like, what is going on?

01:06:48.140 Unsolicited.

01:06:49.160 Yes, and you're like, where is – what is happening or something?

01:06:52.100 And it would be like, come to Memphis or something.

01:06:53.780 Somebody you don't know.

01:06:55.340 You're like, dear God.

01:06:56.680 These are your friends on Snapchat?

01:06:57.880 I don't know who these people are.

01:06:59.800 Well, that's a crazy thing on Snapchat is it's just – you have no idea who the fucking

01:07:03.820 person is.

01:07:04.300 What are you talking about?

01:07:05.060 You should.

01:07:05.760 It should be your friends.

01:07:06.780 You probably added them.

01:07:08.140 Oh, yeah.

01:07:08.720 Then I don't know how I got – I don't know because there's like 70 people that can send me stuff

01:07:13.120 and I don't know any of them and I don't know how they're able to.

01:07:15.100 Yeah.

01:07:15.120 How did you get them on there?

01:07:15.920 Maybe when I first started, I might have hit the wrong button.

01:07:19.000 To where you can allow anything?

01:07:20.300 That's how you get unsolicited dick pics.

01:07:21.840 Really?

01:07:22.300 Yes.

01:07:22.600 Well, I don't get any dick pics.

01:07:24.860 Actually, dude, I have gotten a couple.

01:07:26.300 I know you've gotten one.

01:07:27.380 There's some guys from Scotland who are always doing blow and sending dick pics to me.

01:07:30.900 It's just Scotland guys?

01:07:32.760 Oh, yeah.

01:07:33.180 That's really niche.

01:07:34.220 They either sound Scottish or they've done so much blow that they just can't speak English.

01:07:38.040 There's audio.

01:07:39.020 Yeah, there's audio too.

01:07:39.940 On the dick pics.

01:07:40.580 What are you talking about?

01:07:42.160 Yeah, dude.

01:07:42.800 You think I want a dick pic with no audio, dude?

01:07:45.200 What are you talking – just a silent winger?

01:07:47.240 What are they saying?

01:07:48.480 What are they saying?

01:07:49.380 Sometimes it's like you'll hear them doing little football chants or just talking in Scottish.

01:07:53.400 You're getting videos.

01:07:54.000 Yeah, wiener vids or whatever.

01:07:55.220 That feels much worse.

01:07:56.480 It's more cinematography, I feel like.

01:07:58.900 Cinematic.

01:07:59.560 Yeah, just a picture is like, oh, anybody could do that.

01:08:01.660 At least these guys are like –

01:08:02.760 They're putting some work in.

01:08:03.820 It feels like a –

01:08:04.600 And they thought about you.

01:08:05.220 Yeah.

01:08:05.720 They really thought about you.

01:08:06.500 All right, I don't want to think about it anymore.

01:08:08.300 You know?

01:08:08.940 I'm 40 days off pornography right now.

01:08:12.320 That's good.

01:08:13.160 I feel pretty hype about that, actually.

01:08:14.540 I feel pretty good about it.

01:08:16.760 Do you think you will go to college?

01:08:18.600 You didn't go to college?

01:08:19.640 I didn't.

01:08:20.240 You didn't?

01:08:20.680 No, but I've been thinking about it.

01:08:21.820 Have you?

01:08:22.440 No.

01:08:22.900 Fuck no.

01:08:23.260 Like Mabu, would you go like him?

01:08:24.620 I'm never going to college.

01:08:26.160 But sometimes I do want to go because lately I've – like when I was in high school,

01:08:30.340 I never – I hated that shit and I didn't want to learn anything.

01:08:33.560 But now I feel like – I don't know if it's my age or what, but I just want to learn so much.

01:08:38.460 Yeah.

01:08:38.660 I'm trying to – I want to like force myself to read boring books because I just want to know more.

01:08:42.680 Yeah.

01:08:43.100 You know?

01:08:43.920 But I don't know.

01:08:44.620 You can.

01:08:45.180 I used to want to go to Harvard.

01:08:47.020 Really?

01:08:47.660 Yeah.

01:08:48.280 So you had dreams like that.

01:08:50.040 I wanted to go.

01:08:50.760 I just wanted to go because I knew it was like the craziest one.

01:08:53.240 Like what do you mean go?

01:08:53.900 Like just go there, eat in the student union or something?

01:08:55.900 Or you wanted to go to school there?

01:08:56.820 I wanted to go and be a lawyer, which I would have been a fucking terrible lawyer.

01:09:02.180 I don't know.

01:09:02.900 I hate confrontation.

01:09:04.540 Do you?

01:09:05.160 I do.

01:09:05.520 Some of your – I don't know.

01:09:07.580 Some of your energy, I feel like you want the – you want – you –

01:09:13.120 No, I do.

01:09:13.820 You're there for it.

01:09:14.860 That's the weird thing.

01:09:15.700 It's like the songs are like the part of me that I'm not.

01:09:19.400 I'm not a fighter.

01:09:20.340 But in my songs, I'm a fighter.

01:09:21.820 Yeah.

01:09:22.200 You feel me?

01:09:22.780 Yeah.

01:09:23.420 But yeah, no.

01:09:25.080 It's like my alter – it's like what I – you know?

01:09:27.660 Yeah, that's a good point.

01:09:29.640 Sometimes we create – yeah.

01:09:31.040 Yeah, I think when I'm – I don't feel as confident off a stage as I do when I'm on stage.

01:09:35.040 Right.

01:09:35.380 I never even thought about that until just now.

01:09:36.740 It's just like what you got to get out, you know?

01:09:39.680 Yeah.

01:09:40.560 Without it, I might be a fighter, you know?

01:09:43.360 I could see you doing UFC or something.

01:09:44.780 You think so?

01:09:45.700 Yeah.

01:09:46.220 Really?

01:09:47.580 Yeah, dude.

01:09:48.020 Have you ever done that?

01:09:48.780 Have you gone?

01:09:49.480 I've gone.

01:09:49.940 Are you never gone?

01:09:50.500 No, I want to go really bad.

01:09:51.860 Really?

01:09:52.180 So bad.

01:09:53.040 I'll – I'll – yeah, I'll see if I can help you out.

01:09:57.620 Please do.

01:09:58.200 I really want to see it.

01:09:59.320 You would fucking love it then, dude.

01:10:00.880 You think so?

01:10:01.300 Yeah.

01:10:01.500 Are you kidding me?

01:10:02.640 Find a fighter to walk out to one of your songs to, one of those bad bitches that are in the league.

01:10:06.180 Is it?

01:10:06.640 Wow.

01:10:07.120 You've watched women too?

01:10:08.120 I watched a woman punch a tit off another woman.

01:10:10.540 No.

01:10:11.080 Yeah?

01:10:11.480 Where'd it go?

01:10:12.680 No.

01:10:13.200 That didn't happen.

01:10:13.540 And if you catch it, you win like a hat or something.

01:10:15.660 That didn't happen.

01:10:15.800 Or you win like an extra large shirt.

01:10:19.280 No, I didn't see that.

01:10:20.160 I have seen – oh, a woman punched a woman's freaking eyelash off the other night in Denver.

01:10:26.360 She had fake eyelashes on?

01:10:27.600 Yeah.

01:10:28.260 That's crazy to wear that into the ring.

01:10:29.920 That's a crazy place to do that.

01:10:31.180 She looked good though.

01:10:31.980 She had makeup on.

01:10:32.600 Right here.

01:10:34.480 Watch this.

01:10:35.380 No.

01:10:36.780 Yeah.

01:10:37.140 No.

01:10:38.120 No.

01:10:38.840 Don't do that.

01:10:39.760 You got to use a stronger glue.

01:10:41.120 What's the – what glue are women using on the head?

01:10:44.140 God damn.

01:10:45.600 No, you know what?

01:10:46.660 You know what I think?

01:10:47.880 Hmm.

01:10:48.620 Do you know what eyelash extensions are?

01:10:50.480 Mm-hmm.

01:10:51.260 You know exactly what they are?

01:10:52.780 Yeah.

01:10:53.180 It's like a fake eyelash.

01:10:54.180 You glue it on, huh?

01:10:55.460 No, but the ones that they do like – they'll go in there with like tongs and they'll do

01:10:59.440 them individually.

01:11:00.380 Nuh-uh.

01:11:01.160 With like serious glue.

01:11:02.380 And I hope that wasn't that because if it was, her real eyelashes got it.

01:11:07.960 Came out with it?

01:11:09.000 Mm.

01:11:09.580 Oh.

01:11:10.140 Look at how red it is.

01:11:12.140 Yeah.

01:11:13.360 Because I don't think she's gluing strip lashes.

01:11:15.380 Oh, look.

01:11:16.020 You can see it leaving right there.

01:11:17.340 No.

01:11:18.160 Oh, my God.

01:11:18.860 Yeah.

01:11:19.000 I think that was an extension.

01:11:21.820 Ugh.

01:11:23.040 That girl lost her eyelashes.

01:11:24.640 Yeah.

01:11:24.860 It's just that time of year.

01:11:25.960 Oh, my God.

01:11:27.000 I got to go see that.

01:11:28.160 Yeah.

01:11:28.340 You think there's one tomorrow?

01:11:29.560 No, no, no, no.

01:11:30.680 They have them on Saturdays.

01:11:32.240 Every Saturday?

01:11:32.960 Yeah.

01:11:33.240 You know what, though?

01:11:34.000 I will make sure you get to one.

01:11:36.660 Please do.

01:11:37.660 I'd be forever grateful.

01:11:38.440 It's so much fun.

01:11:39.280 Really?

01:11:39.700 You're right there by the cage.

01:11:40.840 Yeah, dude.

01:11:42.000 You're right there by the cage.

01:11:43.660 Is it scary?

01:11:43.740 Is that fucked up that we like to watch that as humans?

01:11:46.320 No, because I think it goes back – I think at first –

01:11:49.000 At first, it is fucked up, but then you have to recognize that these guys are fighters

01:11:52.360 and they love doing it.

01:11:53.660 It's like, yes, they want to beat each other up, but they also want to show their skill

01:11:57.600 and craft.

01:11:58.080 Right.

01:11:58.260 They want to be seen.

01:11:59.100 Right.

01:11:59.380 Just like a singer.

01:12:00.180 Just like anything.

01:12:00.900 A stripper, anything.

01:12:01.820 Anything, it's like I want to put myself out there.

01:12:04.320 So I think – I used to sit there and kind of feel bad, but now I realize I just have

01:12:08.900 maximum respect for both of the men or women that are in there because they're doing

01:12:13.560 exactly what they want to do.

01:12:15.360 Yeah, here they put it back on, I guess.

01:12:17.500 Or they took the other one off.

01:12:18.620 Yeah, it's – no, the one on the – her right eye is still on, and you can see it's

01:12:22.680 gone on the –

01:12:23.780 It looks like they're gone, though.

01:12:26.720 Yeah.

01:12:27.840 That's bad.

01:12:31.780 Do you party, you drink?

01:12:33.840 I do.

01:12:34.440 I dabble.

01:12:34.900 I used to a lot more than I do now.

01:12:36.840 Really?

01:12:37.200 Why?

01:12:37.460 I – well, high school, like 17 was just rough for me, and I think I did that to cope with

01:12:44.320 shit, which is not great.

01:12:46.220 But the older I got, the more I just realized how bad it makes you feel.

01:12:49.400 Yeah.

01:12:49.680 Like, I can't tour and drink a lot anymore because it just wrecks me.

01:12:54.240 I'll get sick so fast.

01:12:56.220 Oh, you have to take care of yourself so much when you tour.

01:12:59.220 It's crazy.

01:12:59.880 It's actually crazy.

01:13:00.940 That's why, like, the other day people were ripped – or, you know, Morgan Wallen canceled

01:13:04.180 a show.

01:13:04.540 It was in Tampa.

01:13:05.480 Do you see this?

01:13:06.460 And Jelly Roll, like, went and did a show, which I thought was really sweet to try to

01:13:09.780 be helpful.

01:13:11.020 But also, it's like – and people were like, fuck him or whatever, you know.

01:13:14.520 But it's like, it's so hard.

01:13:16.800 And he's been touring for three years straight.

01:13:20.600 Just straight, right?

01:13:22.060 I mean, I think he's had maybe a couple months off here and there, but not a long time.

01:13:26.100 I mean, I was shocked.

01:13:27.040 Remember, he was touring after the first album, and then he put out the double out.

01:13:30.320 Remember that?

01:13:31.580 Yeah.

01:13:31.920 No, he just hasn't stopped touring.

01:13:33.280 So, I can only fathom that he's pretty burnt at certain moments, you know.

01:13:39.920 And then they showed him the night before.

01:13:42.060 It's raining.

01:13:43.400 Really?

01:13:43.700 He's singing.

01:13:44.460 And steam is coming up.

01:13:45.860 It was like 100 degrees.

01:13:46.780 It was like –

01:13:47.180 Also, probably a long show.

01:13:48.760 Like, he probably has a lot of fucking songs to sing.

01:13:51.000 Oh, he puts in a two – yeah, it's like –

01:13:52.580 Two hours?

01:13:52.980 I think it's a two-hour show.

01:13:53.960 Yeah, no.

01:13:54.680 That shit is so – I don't know how people do that long of tours and not have to cancel

01:13:59.460 shows.

01:14:00.060 Yeah.

01:14:00.280 You never want to have to do it, but, like, you can't sing if you can't fucking

01:14:03.000 sing.

01:14:03.460 Yeah.

01:14:03.880 You know?

01:14:04.300 How much wear and tear is it really in your voice?

01:14:06.220 As a comedian, it's like, you know, it's some, but it's not –

01:14:09.600 Yeah, it's probably really different, huh?

01:14:11.180 Yeah, it's more like just making sure your mental state is okay to go out there and build

01:14:17.500 this energy of, like, we're having a good time, you know?

01:14:20.240 What do you do if you're not?

01:14:23.440 I don't know.

01:14:24.220 Like, what would be warrants for you to not do a show or you're just broad-talking it

01:14:29.340 regardless?

01:14:30.040 You don't have a fucking choice.

01:14:31.640 Yeah, I know.

01:14:32.220 So, for me, nothing really unless I was hurt or unless something like –

01:14:35.860 Yeah, like physically.

01:14:36.260 – really tragic happened in life.

01:14:38.200 But for a singer, is it realistic that it could come up to a, like, three or four in the

01:14:42.860 afternoon and you're athlete and you're like, I can't do it?

01:14:45.640 I mean, it depends – like, fuck, I had to cancel one one time.

01:14:49.540 I had the stomach flu, but, like, from hell.

01:14:53.920 Like, I couldn't – it was so bad.

01:14:56.100 I was just throwing up, like – like, I just couldn't, like, walk very far without,

01:15:01.200 like, throwing up and shit.

01:15:02.480 So, I had to cancel it, you know, when you're just, like, weak and shit.

01:15:05.820 Oh, yeah, I hate that, dude.

01:15:07.480 And you try to open a Gatorade and you can't open it.

01:15:09.660 You have to not ask your neighbor.

01:15:10.880 That's how bad it was.

01:15:11.300 You're laying on the bathroom floor, just curled up.

01:15:13.700 So, that's the only time I'll do it.

01:15:15.220 But I do lose my voice a lot.

01:15:17.460 And I just do the show anyways.

01:15:19.080 I just hope that they're going to sing.

01:15:21.000 Oh, that's why a lot of people go like that to the crowd.

01:15:23.400 Yeah, sometimes you've got to do it.

01:15:25.080 But some people fucking – some people fake it, which is crazy.

01:15:28.940 It's not them singing the whole time?

01:15:30.080 Some people fake it.

01:15:30.560 You're lying.

01:15:31.440 No, you didn't know that?

01:15:32.440 No, I knew that people have been accused of it.

01:15:35.260 Mariah Carey does it.

01:15:36.500 No.

01:15:37.160 No, she doesn't, really.

01:15:38.580 Mariah Carey?

01:15:39.340 Fuck, that's sad.

01:15:40.160 I'm just – allegedly, I've heard that she does it.

01:15:45.000 Somebody went to one of their shows recently that said they bring a sofa out there and she just lays on the sofa the whole time.

01:15:50.700 In her pajamas, no less.

01:15:52.480 No, she doesn't.

01:15:52.820 Swear to God.

01:15:53.700 See if you can find any of it.

01:15:54.720 Because can you even imagine, like, you're like, I'll go on tour.

01:15:58.380 But it's exactly how I'm going to be at home.

01:16:00.800 And you're just fucking –

01:16:00.960 She's sitting on the couch and she's not singing?

01:16:02.820 She's got to be singing.

01:16:04.100 You're fucking with me.

01:16:04.800 You have to sing.

01:16:05.540 No, some of my friends just went in Vegas.

01:16:08.520 They saw her not long ago.

01:16:09.420 They're like – she just laid on the couch the whole time in her pajamas and sang.

01:16:13.460 They're like, it was cool, but it was also like, this seems pretty crazy.

01:16:17.620 I don't buy it.

01:16:19.520 It could be mythological, you know.

01:16:20.880 I don't know.

01:16:21.340 It's got to be mythological.

01:16:22.340 Have you seen that crab that's eating a gusher on the internet?

01:16:24.660 No.

01:16:25.140 Show it to me.

01:16:25.560 Oh, it's cool.

01:16:26.100 What is it?

01:16:26.760 It's a crab just eating a gusher.

01:16:28.460 See if you can find it.

01:16:29.320 What's your For You page like?

01:16:30.800 Me?

01:16:31.280 Yeah.

01:16:31.540 A lot of just positivity, a little bit of tits, probably, honestly, to be honest with you.

01:16:37.440 But I'm just joking.

01:16:38.440 I mean, I don't know.

01:16:39.080 I haven't been on there in a while.

01:16:40.920 Watch Howie's reaction today.

01:16:42.320 She remembers.

01:16:43.260 Is this the one that I like?

01:16:46.100 Yeah.

01:16:46.720 Yep.

01:16:47.400 Okay.

01:16:48.820 You can have whatever you want.

01:16:50.340 Here's a gusher.

01:16:52.520 There.

01:16:57.200 Do you remember gushers?

01:17:00.180 You don't want it?

01:17:01.540 You don't want gushers?

01:17:04.840 Watch this crab eat a damn gusher.

01:17:09.680 No.

01:17:10.340 Yeah.

01:17:11.540 What's a gusher?

01:17:13.200 You remember?

01:17:15.680 Yeah.

01:17:16.660 You do happy mouth for gushers?

01:17:19.580 Yeah.

01:17:21.400 You want more?

01:17:23.440 More?

01:17:24.100 You didn't give them one.

01:17:25.400 Oh, it's good.

01:17:26.620 It's good.

01:17:28.760 Yum, yum, yum.

01:17:29.780 Um, such a missy girl.

01:17:32.620 All the spooky crab.

01:17:33.180 Yeah.

01:17:37.580 I thought we, we got to see her eat the gusher.

01:17:40.740 She's got to put it in her mouth.

01:17:41.200 And we give her another one.

01:17:41.940 That's crazy.

01:17:46.220 The buildup is wild.

01:17:47.600 Yeah.

01:17:52.220 I feel like we're being fucked with right now.

01:17:54.320 That's the world we live in now.

01:17:55.640 Crabs are eating gushers.

01:17:56.820 It's just a different time.

01:17:57.860 You ever had one?

01:17:58.740 A gusher?

01:17:59.420 A crab.

01:17:59.840 Oh, yeah, dude.

01:18:02.340 Yeah.

01:18:03.140 Really?

01:18:03.620 Yeah.

01:18:04.280 Oh, yeah.

01:18:04.740 I like, I mean, in Louisiana, we had a lot of crabs.

01:18:06.960 Y'all didn't have them in Huntsville?

01:18:10.320 No.

01:18:10.820 I did.

01:18:11.160 Hush puppies.

01:18:11.540 I did have one.

01:18:12.160 That's the Huntsville thing, isn't it?

01:18:13.180 Hush puppies.

01:18:13.500 No.

01:18:13.880 What is that?

01:18:14.520 A hush puppy.

01:18:15.620 Oh, like the food?

01:18:16.540 Yeah.

01:18:16.740 It's like a little.

01:18:17.320 That's not a Huntsville thing.

01:18:18.660 That's an everywhere thing, though.

01:18:19.520 Is it?

01:18:20.000 Is it?

01:18:20.640 I just, they were really normal.

01:18:22.420 I thought a hush puppy was from Huntsville, Alabama.

01:18:24.300 Is it actually?

01:18:24.880 Look at it.

01:18:25.360 Where's the home of, where did hush puppies get started?

01:18:30.360 Hush puppy?

01:18:31.120 Yeah, I like the ones that are a little sweeter.

01:18:33.520 Ah.

01:18:34.740 But I don't like the ones that have like jalapenos in them.

01:18:37.860 You don't like jalapenos?

01:18:39.140 I like them, but I don't like them in a hush puppy.

01:18:41.720 Do you like spicy food a lot?

01:18:43.380 Yeah, I don't mind it.

01:18:45.140 But I'll fucking get weird if it gets weird.

01:18:47.600 It appears that it originated with Native Americans.

01:18:50.960 In Southern cuisine, can we say, find out where?

01:18:55.680 I thought it was in damn Huntsville, Alabama.

01:18:57.640 You ever had like a ghost pepper?

01:18:58.960 My mom lied.

01:19:00.160 I don't know if I have.

01:19:01.140 Is it cool?

01:19:01.820 I've never had one.

01:19:03.500 All right.

01:19:04.060 Damn, girl.

01:19:05.700 Hey, we ain't gonna force that on you, girl.

01:19:09.860 Oh, did you see that white horse that they have?

01:19:12.940 Where?

01:19:13.240 This is an animal I could see you having.

01:19:15.000 Where?

01:19:15.940 It's the fanciest horse they have, the most expensive horse in the world.

01:19:19.480 Are you serious?

01:19:20.140 Yeah.

01:19:20.860 Whoa.

01:19:21.120 Look at this horse.

01:19:21.680 Two reasons.

01:19:25.560 Because it was elected the most beautiful horse in the world because of its coat.

01:19:30.280 It's a coat that is somewhat silvery.

01:19:32.720 Wow.

01:19:32.960 As you can see here.

01:19:34.100 Wow.

01:19:34.540 It's just magnificent.

01:19:36.140 And it comes from a lineage of racehorses with a great track record.

01:19:39.820 Wow.

01:19:40.120 So it's for these two reasons that at auction, it went for over $50 million.

01:19:44.960 Holy shit.

01:19:45.760 There is no way.

01:19:46.520 $50 million for a horse.

01:19:48.560 Well, of course, it's just magnificent.

01:19:51.140 $50 million.

01:19:51.940 I'd pet that thing all night.

01:19:53.460 Do you like horses?

01:19:54.700 I like them, but I think they gotta like you, you know?

01:19:58.080 They have to like you.

01:19:58.860 But that's expensive.

01:20:00.040 Dude, I remember the first time I ever stayed in an expensive hotel room.

01:20:02.540 I was afraid to even go to sleep.

01:20:03.720 I was like, dude, this is like $600 a night, dude.

01:20:06.720 I ain't sleeping.

01:20:08.100 You didn't sleep?

01:20:08.860 No, I understand.

01:20:09.420 I'm wasting the money.

01:20:10.740 So you just stayed up?

01:20:11.720 Oh, you closed your eyes.

01:20:12.720 That's $11, dude.

01:20:14.020 It's like, I'm definitely gonna get my money's worth or whatever.

01:20:17.320 I know exactly what you're talking about.

01:20:19.560 It's so crazy sometimes.

01:20:21.420 Do you guys ever get stopped by the police in your tour bus?

01:20:24.500 I don't think so.

01:20:25.940 No, only like border crossings and shit.

01:20:27.980 Yeah, to Canada?

01:20:28.980 Yeah.

01:20:29.320 You ever got in trouble?

01:20:30.440 Are you on a tour bus?

01:20:31.500 We do tour bus and sometimes, yeah, sometimes we fly.

01:20:35.560 But we'll do tour bus a lot.

01:20:38.240 Have you ever had any good run-ins with the police?

01:20:41.000 No, I mean, shit like getting chased in high school.

01:20:45.040 Yeah.

01:20:46.220 Like for trespassing and stuff.

01:20:48.000 Oh, dude, we had this guy.

01:20:49.740 He got so high, right?

01:20:50.880 He fucking called.

01:20:51.800 He couldn't feel his arms.

01:20:53.520 He said he didn't have any arms or whatever.

01:20:55.700 Oh, and he called the police?

01:20:56.600 Huh?

01:20:57.020 He said he didn't have any arms.

01:20:58.860 Starts yelling, bro, for people to call the police.

01:21:01.600 So the fucking police come.

01:21:03.500 He started.

01:21:04.100 He said these people.

01:21:04.800 I think he was on, I don't know, some type of drugs.

01:21:06.540 He's like, these guys stole my arms, dude, right?

01:21:08.700 He fucking goes like that towards us.

01:21:10.920 Towards you?

01:21:11.840 Yeah, there's the dumbest part.

01:21:13.240 Oh, no.

01:21:14.080 The dumbest part.

01:21:14.780 The cop comes over and goes like this, like we have his arms.

01:21:16.960 The motherfucker has his arms on him.

01:21:19.520 This didn't happen.

01:21:20.560 Yeah, oh, I swear to God.

01:21:21.640 The guy was super high.

01:21:22.820 Dude, one night, my buddy Billy invites me over.

01:21:26.860 He was working at a gas station all night.

01:21:28.720 He invites me over there.

01:21:30.100 We smoke a little bit of weed.

01:21:32.600 I went outside.

01:21:33.720 I don't know if I went outside to get someone in my car or something.

01:21:35.320 He felt so high.

01:21:36.400 He thought that I poisoned him, right?

01:21:39.300 He locks himself in the gas station, calls the police.

01:21:42.540 No.

01:21:42.900 Yeah.

01:21:43.640 Because he thought you poisoned him.

01:21:44.560 Yeah.

01:21:44.780 So I was like, I'm fucking out of here.

01:21:46.200 Did you go?

01:21:46.520 You ran?

01:21:47.080 I left, dude.

01:21:47.900 Yeah.

01:21:48.200 I didn't do anything.

01:21:49.480 And then the cops show up and like.

01:21:51.080 And he's just high?

01:21:51.920 Yeah, he's just high inside the gas station.

01:21:54.220 Where was this at?

01:21:55.180 This was in Madisonville, Louisiana, a beautiful area.

01:21:58.180 Is weed illegal there?

01:21:59.840 I don't know if it's illegal or not, but it's not that good of weed.

01:22:03.340 Do you have a opener on your new tour?

01:22:06.480 Is that even put together yet or you don't know?

01:22:08.660 No, I'm thinking about people.

01:22:09.760 You got any ideas?

01:22:11.160 I know you got ideas.

01:22:13.320 I'm going to think of some and let you know.

01:22:15.360 What kind of stuff do you like?

01:22:16.940 I know you had Charlie on Friday on one of your tours.

01:22:19.720 Yeah.

01:22:20.720 And who was on your last tour?

01:22:25.320 Shabuzi and.

01:22:26.600 Oh, I just met him the other day.

01:22:28.240 Character, right?

01:22:28.960 Yeah.

01:22:29.340 Yeah.

01:22:29.480 Him and Matt Schmooster.

01:22:33.100 Oh, I don't know.

01:22:34.360 I'm not familiar with him.

01:22:35.200 Yo, you would like his show.

01:22:36.600 He has a crazy voice.

01:22:38.560 Matt Schmooster?

01:22:39.580 Yeah.

01:22:40.100 Fuck, I might be saying that wrong, but I.

01:22:41.740 Yeah.

01:22:42.420 Crazy.

01:22:43.060 Matt Schuster?

01:22:44.100 Yeah.

01:22:44.940 Oh, fuck.

01:22:46.020 Schuster.

01:22:46.840 It's a crazy last name, to be fair.

01:22:48.420 But no, crazy voice.

01:22:52.120 Wow.

01:22:52.620 So you were going.

01:22:53.600 You were closing the show?

01:22:55.200 Yeah.

01:22:55.560 Yeah.

01:22:55.700 And Shabuzi was, and that's when he was really blowing up, right?

01:22:59.960 This was like, this was like two months ago, maybe?

01:23:03.560 Wow.

01:23:04.040 This was right before, like, he went crazy.

01:23:07.300 That must have been kind of crazy.

01:23:08.920 It was crazy.

01:23:09.960 It's been so sick seeing him, like, go crazy.

01:23:12.980 Yeah.

01:23:13.900 Yeah, it's unbelievable.

01:23:14.740 He has another song out there now that people are vibing to.

01:23:17.140 I don't know what it is, though.

01:23:18.260 He's got a couple.

01:23:18.980 The album was so fucking good.

01:23:20.320 Is it?

01:23:20.540 I gotta listen to more of it.

01:23:21.460 You gotta listen.

01:23:22.260 I know.

01:23:22.560 You like sad stuff, huh?

01:23:23.920 Don't tell anyone yet.

01:23:27.720 Yeah, his song with Noah Cyrus, I feel like you'd like.

01:23:33.300 Oh, did I meet her?

01:23:34.300 Oh, I met Brandy Cyrus the other day.

01:23:35.680 That's the mom?

01:23:36.760 No, Brandy's one of the children, I think.

01:23:38.540 Oh, really?

01:23:39.080 Is Noah a child of it?

01:23:42.120 Noah Cyrus?

01:23:43.800 She's so good.

01:23:44.760 Did I meet her?

01:23:45.340 No, she's pretty.

01:23:48.300 Brandy I met.

01:23:49.560 Yeah.

01:23:50.320 That's a, oh, there's a huge Ron.

01:23:52.760 Wait, Brandy.

01:23:53.920 Who's damn Ron Cyrus?

01:23:55.200 I didn't even know this.

01:23:55.640 That's a big family right there.

01:23:57.100 Yeah, that's a lot of family.

01:23:59.780 So you're thinking of people now?

01:24:01.060 How does that work?

01:24:02.120 You just pick somebody.

01:24:03.380 No.

01:24:03.820 Yeah.

01:24:04.460 Dude, but I'm sure a lot of agents submit people through, like, what about this guy?

01:24:07.820 A hundred percent, yeah.

01:24:08.880 And do you have to listen?

01:24:09.600 Do you feel like you have pressure to listen to any of that?

01:24:11.680 It depends on ticket sales.

01:24:12.760 Like, if you, like, sell out, then you can pick whoever you want.

01:24:15.700 Oh.

01:24:16.780 Is your tour on sale yet?

01:24:18.420 No.

01:24:19.040 I haven't announced it yet.

01:24:20.540 It'll sell out.

01:24:21.920 I hope so.

01:24:23.080 I'm really excited.

01:24:24.200 I'll be doing my first Arena show, which is really sick.

01:24:26.420 Oh, that's crazy.

01:24:27.260 I'm really excited about it.

01:24:29.060 Yeah, dude.

01:24:29.440 Some of your songs, they were like, yeah.

01:24:33.040 Some of them are so great.

01:24:37.700 I don't want to sing them because I don't want people to think I'm that weird anymore.

01:24:43.880 Which ones do you know?

01:24:46.160 Oh, let me think.

01:24:47.180 There was a song.

01:24:47.780 Oh, What Happened to Ryan, that song.

01:24:49.640 Damn.

01:24:50.220 I remember.

01:24:50.880 That was kind of a, like, it was, like, kind of strange that I was like, oh, this one's

01:24:54.280 fucking kind of crazy.

01:24:55.680 Sad.

01:24:56.280 Yeah, sad.

01:24:57.500 Any of the sad shit, I was there for it.

01:24:59.720 Damn, I got to send you a playlist.

01:25:01.840 Of sad shit?

01:25:02.660 Yeah.

01:25:03.380 Do not do it, dude.

01:25:05.580 I'm already on pills and shit, man.

01:25:07.560 I don't want to fucking, I don't want this to be how it ends, you know?

01:25:11.820 Fuck, I'm not sending you nothing.

01:25:13.160 Cough and music.

01:25:13.940 That'll be your next album, you know?

01:25:15.280 Cough and music.

01:25:15.420 That's a crazy thought.

01:25:17.460 Dude, there's a video.

01:25:18.420 There was, like, a church or something, and they were doing a, and whoever was doing

01:25:21.940 the audiovisual accidentally played a, played a, played a, played a song, or played a clip

01:25:28.960 of mine.

01:25:29.880 See if you find that, Nick.

01:25:32.520 I don't want to keep you too long, Jess.

01:25:34.560 So, yeah, tell me something else before you leave.

01:25:37.540 Anything?

01:25:38.340 Oh, do you ever have any pets growing up?

01:25:40.060 What was that like?

01:25:40.800 I did.

01:25:41.180 I have a crab.

01:25:42.500 Oh, you did.

01:25:43.420 And it died.

01:25:44.600 No.

01:25:44.920 And I killed it on accident.

01:25:46.620 Nah.

01:25:47.360 Yeah, and let me tell you how it happened.

01:25:48.580 So, I had a crab.

01:25:49.940 Just one?

01:25:50.900 Yes.

01:25:51.440 Okay.

01:25:52.020 Its name was Bubbles, and then it had a shell.

01:25:54.940 And you know when you go to the beach?

01:25:56.300 You ever been to Orange Beach?

01:25:57.480 Oh, yeah.

01:25:58.280 Right?

01:25:58.740 Good time, huh?

01:25:59.560 Mm-hmm.

01:25:59.900 Great time, dude.

01:26:00.980 So, I got it there, and it had a shell.

01:26:03.800 But you know how they have, like, the painted shells?

01:26:06.340 You can buy different shells.

01:26:08.240 Oh, really?

01:26:08.940 And what, do you get them done at, like, a salon or whatever?

01:26:10.940 No, they just have them.

01:26:11.780 Somebody else has done them already.

01:26:13.020 Oh, and you put it on your crab?

01:26:14.720 You're not supposed to, apparently.

01:26:17.080 So, I get the shell, and I didn't, it had, like, a bad one on, so I took it out.

01:26:21.280 And so, and I tried to put it into the new shell, and it just wouldn't, and then it died.

01:26:25.320 That was it.

01:26:26.200 Yeah, I haven't had a pet since then.

01:26:27.780 No.

01:26:28.240 Should I get another one?

01:26:30.000 I'm trying to think, if you're trying to get something, you know, what you're thinking about getting?

01:26:33.340 I probably shouldn't do a crab again.

01:26:35.740 It's probably wraps.

01:26:36.940 Feed it a gusher, dude, if you do.

01:26:38.600 You think so?

01:26:39.240 You know they like them, girl?

01:26:40.220 Get the fucking valentines.

01:26:40.600 That was a big crab.

01:26:41.900 Huh?

01:26:42.300 That's fucking crazy.

01:26:43.600 Oh.

01:26:43.740 You can walk that thing.

01:26:44.660 I'll fucking watch one of them bitches eat a nerd rope, homie.

01:26:47.940 I don't give a fuck, dog.

01:26:49.640 Next time I see you, I'm going to bring you a crab.

01:26:51.800 I'll give a damn twizzler to a dolphin.

01:26:53.480 No.

01:26:53.760 Do not bring me a damn crab, dude.

01:26:55.640 Play this video right here.

01:26:56.740 This is at a church.

01:26:57.280 Would you keep it?

01:26:57.840 I think you want to kick a fat kid at K-Market.

01:27:04.400 I played that on accident at church.

01:27:06.500 That's at a funeral?

01:27:09.120 That's at a funeral.

01:27:12.820 Oh, they were leading a prayer.

01:27:14.180 I think you want to kick a fat kid at K-Market.

01:27:17.380 Can you imagine you're in a fucking church?

01:27:19.500 That can't be real.

01:27:21.180 They all said amen.

01:27:22.480 Somebody played that on accident.

01:27:24.500 That's fucked up.

01:27:25.620 That might be my favorite clip I've seen all day.

01:27:28.340 Oh, amen.

01:27:28.980 I like that.

01:27:30.020 Look at this.

01:27:30.580 You see this whale return somebody's phone.

01:27:32.300 They dropped it in the water.

01:27:34.840 That's a whale.

01:27:36.560 It's a beluga whale.

01:27:37.760 Right?

01:27:38.160 Wow.

01:27:38.460 I mean, it's kind of like a trans dolphin or whatever.

01:27:41.420 Do you know about SeaWorld?

01:27:42.780 Yeah, I've heard about it.

01:27:43.540 You know about the dolphins?

01:27:44.840 Mm-mm.

01:27:45.240 Have you ever heard about dolphin births?

01:27:47.120 Mm-mm.

01:27:48.160 Like people can, I don't know if this is safe, but people can give birth and the dolphins

01:27:53.320 deliver your baby for you.

01:27:55.060 It's like a real thing.

01:27:56.720 What do you mean?

01:27:57.780 You've never heard of that?

01:27:59.740 How could I ever heard of it?

01:28:00.940 Because it's not even something.

01:28:02.320 No, it is something.

01:28:03.260 I promise you.

01:28:04.180 What are you saying?

01:28:04.740 Like a midwife that's a dolphin?

01:28:06.040 Yes, I swear it's a thing, unless I'm confused, but I really think this is-

01:28:09.340 And where do you do it?

01:28:10.020 In the deep end or whatever?

01:28:11.100 Was this at a Hampton Inn?

01:28:12.060 This isn't that thing that happened outside of Waco, was it?

01:28:16.300 It could have been.

01:28:17.040 No, I think it's a thing.

01:28:18.020 It's an option.

01:28:19.280 It's an option at SeaWorld?

01:28:21.960 No.

01:28:23.840 Look, it's a real thing.

01:28:25.240 I've never seen this.

01:28:26.740 Oh, my God.

01:28:27.540 That thing's a pervert, dude.

01:28:28.720 They help you get it.

01:28:29.640 That woman's married.

01:28:31.040 Somebody tell that dolphin.

01:28:32.160 Dolphin-assisted birth, a newer take on water births, is apparently a trend growing in popularity.

01:28:38.980 The Sirius Institute in Hawaii, a new age center dedicated to encouraging the bonds between dolphins and humans, often assisted childbirth.

01:28:47.420 However, it's unclear if any women have actually gone through with it.

01:28:49.960 One couple from North Carolina traveled to the center for prenatal bonding, but the actual birth with dolphins didn't happen.

01:28:56.080 Wow.

01:28:56.700 Somebody's had to do it, though, if it's a trending thing.

01:28:59.380 According to a website, pioneering Russian midwife Igor Sharkovsky began assisting births in the Black Sea with dolphins that live there.

01:29:11.200 Some of the reported occurrences included a mother and a baby playing with the dolphin within 45 minutes of the birth, another instance of a free dolphin escorting a newborn human baby to the surface for its first breath.

01:29:22.720 So it comes out underwater.

01:29:25.160 Bro, let me tell you this.

01:29:27.320 If my baby is born, I'm not giving it to a fucking dolphin, dude, for even 30 seconds.

01:29:37.640 What if it swims off with it?

01:29:40.260 That's a crazy thought.

01:29:41.760 No, I think you have to do it.

01:29:42.940 But then you're like, oh, it didn't work or what?

01:29:44.760 How are you going to tell your wife?

01:29:46.060 It takes your baby or it just eats your baby?

01:29:48.380 Oh.

01:29:48.900 That's a fucked up thought.

01:29:50.080 But this is a thing, though.

01:29:53.840 They said it's therapeutic.

01:29:55.360 You know what's also therapeutic?

01:29:56.480 Taking the child home safely and feeding him and probably homeschooling him and making sure that your home is protected with a ring camera.

01:30:05.700 I mean, this just seems fucking insane.

01:30:10.340 Like, how weird.

01:30:11.300 People get too weird, dude.

01:30:13.260 Somebody in L.A. has definitely done it.

01:30:14.680 Oh, some pervert in L.A. has done it all.

01:30:15.880 Somebody you know has probably done that.

01:30:17.420 Yeah.

01:30:17.820 One of your friends.

01:30:19.140 I don't have friends.

01:30:20.560 One of your friends has probably done that.

01:30:23.300 Jesse Murph, I don't have friends.

01:30:24.360 You should talk to them.

01:30:25.980 Have you any new mentors that have come into your life through, like, you know, sometimes you meet some of your favorites and you meet any of them that I kind of, like, has Madonna spoken to you?

01:30:38.880 No.

01:30:40.180 That would be wild, though.

01:30:42.060 I don't know.

01:30:42.660 There are people I look up to a lot that I know, like, communication, like Adele.

01:30:46.860 I fucking love Adele.

01:30:47.980 Really?

01:30:48.360 I look up to her so much.

01:30:49.480 Yeah, I think she's incredible.

01:30:51.140 Yeah, she's magical, huh?

01:30:52.340 She's magical.

01:30:52.980 You seen her live?

01:30:54.700 No.

01:30:55.200 I've seen her in person somewhere, but I've never seen her live.

01:30:57.920 Really?

01:31:00.100 I want to see it really bad.

01:31:02.300 Yeah.

01:31:03.260 Did you ever perform right after at a venue as her or anything like that?

01:31:06.820 No, I performed in some of the same venues, maybe.

01:31:09.540 Because, I mean, she went on, like, smaller tours earlier in her career.

01:31:12.240 Yeah.

01:31:12.980 But, no, I don't know.

01:31:14.300 She plays in Vegas a lot, I think.

01:31:16.040 Yeah.

01:31:16.760 I don't know, but.

01:31:17.940 Did she ever reach out?

01:31:19.520 No, but I don't know how this happened, but she, like, signed a set list.

01:31:24.280 Somebody got it for me for my birthday.

01:31:26.240 I think it was just a, somebody was like, can you please do this?

01:31:28.260 She probably did it.

01:31:29.160 But, I don't know.

01:31:30.740 It's on my wall and it's my favorite thing, Alan.

01:31:32.640 Really?

01:31:33.100 Mm-hmm.

01:31:33.560 Oh.

01:31:33.800 Yeah.

01:31:34.540 What about you?

01:31:36.660 Let me think if somebody gave me something that was real nice one time.

01:31:45.620 The guy that's in Better Call Saul one time, I think I was performing somewhere after him

01:31:49.380 and he left me a nice note.

01:31:51.340 What did he say?

01:31:52.440 He said, have fun.

01:31:54.140 I was just here.

01:31:55.400 Wow.

01:31:56.720 You have it on your wall?

01:31:58.440 Nope.

01:32:00.000 Bob Odenkirk, but he wrote it, signed it, thought it was pretty nice of him.

01:32:03.960 That's special.

01:32:05.580 What do I have that's something that's real special?

01:32:07.420 Yeah, what's the best gift you've ever received?

01:32:10.120 Or, what's something that, if you could only hang one thing on your wall, what are you hanging?

01:32:13.920 Oh, that's such a good question.

01:32:19.280 One thing.

01:32:20.420 I don't know.

01:32:22.640 I can't even answer, I don't think.

01:32:24.520 It's a crazy question.

01:32:25.180 There's a nice piece of art my friend painted, like it was the first piece of art I ever

01:32:29.180 got, and maybe I would hang that there, I guess.

01:32:31.840 What does it look like?

01:32:32.700 It's just a picture of Chris Farley.

01:32:34.900 Who's that?

01:32:36.160 He's a comedian.

01:32:37.420 He was in a movie called Tommy Boy, Black Sheep.

01:32:42.000 He's like a famous actor, that's him.

01:32:44.320 He died, though.

01:32:45.900 I've seen him somewhere.

01:32:47.480 Yeah, he used to do like, he did films like Adam Sandler, David Spade.

01:32:52.760 He was on Saturday Night Live.

01:32:54.040 He did like, fat guy in a little coat.

01:32:57.060 He used to do like, all kinds of like, sketches and shit.

01:32:59.100 I know I've seen him somewhere.

01:33:00.260 Yeah, yeah.

01:33:00.600 You've seen him.

01:33:01.060 He was like, unbelievably famous.

01:33:03.520 He was like, the most famous guy that they ever had.

01:33:06.680 I mean, look at him.

01:33:07.540 He's...

01:33:07.660 What movie is this?

01:33:13.120 He's fucking...

01:33:14.320 No, this is him just going on like a talk show.

01:33:16.740 Oh, fuck.

01:33:17.420 Obviously, fuck.

01:33:21.060 Wow.

01:33:21.640 Wow.

01:33:24.440 Yeah, dude.

01:33:25.260 My friend said he would just puke.

01:33:27.080 Like, my buddy would go over to his place sometimes, and he's like, he would just puke on the side of his bed, and then just like, between like the wall and the bed all the time.

01:33:33.260 Yo, for why?

01:33:34.600 Just to party.

01:33:36.120 Just to be like that.

01:33:37.280 Dude, my friend Jeff, so...

01:33:39.640 You ever heard that song?

01:33:40.640 It's an old song.

01:33:41.200 It's like, you gotta keep them separated.

01:33:43.440 No.

01:33:43.860 Wait, maybe.

01:33:44.440 Keep going.

01:33:45.200 Oh, yeah.

01:33:45.980 Uh...

01:33:46.260 Are you talking back to me?

01:33:50.040 Oh, well, you gotta keep them separated.

01:33:53.400 Come out and play.

01:33:55.120 Yes.

01:33:55.600 Yes.

01:33:56.000 I've heard that.

01:33:57.000 Well, you're getting a tattoo now.

01:33:58.860 You're getting ink done.

01:34:01.560 Anyway, my friend Jeff, he had like anger issues or whatever, and he would just...

01:34:06.260 He would get angry.

01:34:07.600 He would go in his room.

01:34:08.820 He would play that song, and he would just beat the fuck punch holes all in the walls of his room.

01:34:13.140 That's all he would do?

01:34:14.300 Just to that song, you think?

01:34:15.360 Yeah.

01:34:15.900 That was the only one.

01:34:16.480 Oh, we could tell when he was mad, because you're in there, and you could hear the walls

01:34:18.980 like not doing well.

01:34:20.780 And then, here's what would happen, though.

01:34:22.640 Every year at Christmas, his parents would get his walls redone for him in the room.

01:34:26.120 He would fucking do it again.

01:34:27.220 This was at his family home?

01:34:28.600 Yeah, at his family home.

01:34:29.440 And then I saw this band one time in Vegas, and I told the lead singer.

01:34:33.660 They're like, this is the lead singer of Offspring, and I was like, bro, you are never

01:34:36.900 going to fucking believe this.

01:34:38.420 And they died laughing.

01:34:40.800 It was pretty awesome.

01:34:43.000 Before you go, love life.

01:34:44.440 What's the...

01:34:44.720 Is it...

01:34:45.580 Is it harder to date as you get more popular?

01:34:48.520 Yeah.

01:34:48.980 No, I think I'm just...

01:34:50.480 It's hard when you're busy, you know?

01:34:53.320 And when you're touring a lot, I think.

01:34:54.780 Oh, yeah.

01:34:55.440 But, yeah, I don't know.

01:34:57.360 I don't know.

01:34:57.520 Yeah, it's hard to build something, because you're kind of on the go, and your career,

01:35:01.160 like, it almost has to come first sometimes.

01:35:04.460 It has to come first.

01:35:05.780 Right.

01:35:06.280 Yeah.

01:35:06.660 I mean, what do you do?

01:35:07.900 My career is just like, I've worked so hard that my career takes first place.

01:35:12.380 It's got to.

01:35:13.020 Most of the time.

01:35:13.600 Even if I don't want it to.

01:35:14.780 Yeah.

01:35:14.920 It's like, I have to do this tomorrow.

01:35:17.360 I have to do this.

01:35:18.320 It's like, I'd love to.

01:35:21.160 A lot of times, it'd be like, yeah, look, I would like to do that, but I just can't

01:35:24.660 right now, you know?

01:35:25.820 But then you start to think, oh, well, then, like, yeah, at some point, there'll be times

01:35:29.360 where I don't have to tour as much, and then maybe I could try to devote more attention

01:35:34.960 to it, because it takes attention, too.

01:35:37.260 It takes attention, and it takes, like, care, I think.

01:35:41.340 Yeah.

01:35:42.220 But, fuck, I mean, do you ever see yourself...

01:35:45.300 I mean, at some point, I'm sure, but is there ever going to be a point where you're

01:35:47.660 not touring, though?

01:35:48.920 That's a good question.

01:35:49.740 And then you bring your family on tour, and then they got to help out.

01:35:53.740 Yeah.

01:35:54.660 And your wife's selling merch or whatever and calling you an asshole at night, you know,

01:35:59.380 outside of a fucking wallpouse or something somewhere, and you're like, yeah, I am an

01:36:03.060 asshole.

01:36:03.340 That's what you think?

01:36:04.300 I mean, I think you got to, you know, hope for the best, you know?

01:36:07.000 I think so.

01:36:09.440 Dirty, that's the new single that's available now with Teddy Swims.

01:36:12.980 With Teddy Swims.

01:36:14.120 So freaking cool.

01:36:15.200 And then, these men are going to die.

01:36:20.560 What's it called, the album?

01:36:25.160 Sorry.

01:36:25.800 These men are going to die.

01:36:27.720 I'm always going to be a fan, Jesse Murph.

01:36:29.540 Likewise.

01:36:30.120 Yep.

01:36:30.400 I'm locked in.

01:36:31.160 You're the man.

01:36:31.920 Thank you so much.

01:36:33.180 You remind me of, like, Wim and Em a little bit.

01:36:35.120 Like, you're like, kind of like, because you have this, like, he always seems like he

01:36:39.040 has this little bit of a chip on his shoulder, but he manages it well a little.

01:36:44.400 Wim and Em is real good.

01:36:46.100 Is that?

01:36:46.680 It's real good.

01:36:47.420 I like that a lot.

01:36:48.560 Wim and Em.

01:36:49.340 Thank you for saying that, even if you don't.

01:36:51.600 Ladies and gentlemen, Jesse Murph, thank you so much, and best of luck with the new album.

01:36:55.940 I can't wait to get a hold of it.

01:36:57.140 Now, I'm just floating on the breeze, and I feel I'm falling like these leaves.

01:37:02.980 I must be cornerstone.

01:37:08.240 Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind I found.

01:37:13.720 I can feel it in my bones, but it's going to tell you.
