8-8: Bobby Cast - Ep. 1

dog and no guests today. Um I thought I'll bring the guest in for the first show, but then I thought, man a lot of pressure on the first guest to come in. And I don't think we have anything set up to where anybody can play in here, nor we probably ever. But um so no guests today. Thank you all for being here today, Welcome to the show. Our producers all Is might be follow him on inst what's your Instagram? It might be all right, So let's talk

about stuff. First of all, play the Raging Idiot Show over the weekend in Fort Wayne and it was awesome. Um if you follow on snatchat we had a call at eleven o'clock which means it's like bus call. It's where everybody comes in. You have to be at the bus at eleven o'clock to leave all the band. So we have bus call and it's probably I get there like ten forty or so, um, and I said that may be late. Ended up not being late, but I said it may be late. Um, it wasn't late, and

everyone's there, and eleven o'clock comes, there's no Eddie. And eleven fifteen comes, there's no Eddie, and I teck him like, dude, where are you? Eleven thirty comes, no Eddie, eleven forty comes, no Eddie. It turns out he went home, went to bed and it was asleep, and Eddie didn't show up til like eleven fifty three. So we sat there for an hour or so. Then we drove an hour, so I had to miss Iris from the Google Dolls because

I didn't want to be late. And how do you go to a Google Dolls concert and not see Iris? So I didn't get to watch Iris. Saw all the rest of it though, except for Iris, and then Eddie was an hour late, so it was not a pleasant I get so mad when people are late, not even for me, but it's just a disrespect thing to other people. So no, I haven't wrote on Twitter as pissed, which isn't a curse word, by the way, And so yeah, that's being addressed. We're gonna We're gonna start I'm gonna

start finding people. Do you ever watch the James Brown movie, Mike, You ever see James Brown, That's what he used to do. If you re late, he'd find you. I'm gonna start finding people for being late. If you're lay it on the show. I've seen people home. Were you working with us when I send people home? Uh? Eddie came in late one day and he had he just went home. Lunchbox came in one day, he just went home. Amy came in. Amy missed a show, like just slept right

to the show and she got some home. And I think she alluded to it this morning on the air. She was just like, yeah, if I go to a concert, I'm probably gonna miss the show. I mean be late. And so she like the first hour of the show like completely. It was just like, oh, and I understand if you're late sometimes occasionally if they're like an accident or something. But yeah, that was that was a bad deal.

But we played it. If you're listening right now and you're a fort Wayne, I appreciate everybody who comes to all the shows. Next weekend, we're gonna be in Tyler, Texas and Beaumont. We have shows coming up at Macon, Georgia, and Charleston and Springfield, like We're trying to go everywhere Tampa. It would be a big, big rest of the year.

And then I don't know what's gonna happen with Raging Idiots Woven may Um, because we're putting out a kids finishing our kids record, but then we may call it, call it quits for a bit like the Stones, but you know, like led Zeppelin. Yeah, this may be our farewell tour. So if you're listening right now, this maybe it. If you've got a chance to come to the Reging Idiots, come see us, because we don't have a lot left. Then I'm gonna just start doing I stand up comedy stuff. Um.

I mean that's where that's was the most fun. And the regidios are a lot of fun. They're just so exhausting. I mean, I dancer, my legs are still sore. But I will say this, the Google dolls I want to saw them on Friday night and they were really good, Like I didn't expect them to be as good as they were, and the Google I realized, now, if your favorite kind of music is always the music when you're from like eighteen to twenty five years old, like that's

your favorite kind of music for your whole life. And for me, inside of that was the Google Dolls. Not that they're my favorite band or they were even my favorite music, but they were in that time period, and it's that eighteen to twenty five year old time period where that's always going to be your music, and you can even say sixteen to twenty five if you want what you're moving in my dog getting comfortable in the chair.

But the Google Dolls were in that time period where I probably saw them eight times in concert, so I was knowing tracks like people know. I mean Slide They played this in the crowd freak all right after Iris. Their second biggest song, Slide whispering Yeah Things want to Feel Man Name probably the third biggest song. I knew all the words of the song. This is their first single too. Now I won't tell them your name? Do you know this on micro? Now? I just knew it

from your snapchat. That's it. You didn't know the song non passed me by, So there's that. And I was such a lamo during the show, and such a I forgot that I was a Google Dolls fan that I was singing b sides of records that I forgot I even knew because they were playing song. I was like, wait, how do I know this song? And they would play like black Balloon, and I'll be like, I know this one, and so I'd sing all the words. And I was with a Nikita who was on our first uh you know,

Bobby cast. She was like, how do you know these songs? I've never heard them before. So it was really good to be a chance to google as they were good collectives, all open. They were okay, I mean all the collective soul songs are the same. That's a good one though. Black Balloon here on the Bobby Cast, this black almost film into that hole and do you know, I'm thinking about mom, you are the same Ever heard that one? Mike? No? Never, So you wouldn't even know long way down, I don't

think I'm oh man, I know about it. Really, you don't even know slide, Like, why don't you know that is this like oldies to you. I remember seeing that video and like MTV and stuff, so it's not old easy. I just don't I'm not big go do. I compared it to this morning, like me seeing the bands of the eighties like Billy Idol or Poison. I don't know that stuff that was before me. I was born in the eighties, so I guess I kind of remember it. But but even that stuff, I'm aware of it, like

I'm again aware of it too. But but there were people there that we're in that same thing with the Google Dolls, much younger. They had to just hear it like on Hot A C radio stations. But back in the day, I was playing that stuff on the radio like I was like, here it is guy. I used to be on a station called kla Z. Was my first ever radio station, and so it's seventeen years old. And I would be like, continue with same music one or five point nine kla Zy with the new one

from the Google Dolls. Here, slide on kla Zy. That's all I would do. Yeah, I've never heard of that song referred to as knew yeah, and I would knew it, Yeah, for sure, would knew it. Dude, those are the days back at KLAZY. That's my very first ever radio station.

And I went in as a teenager and I wrote about this in my book, where I went in and just try to get a job cleaning anything to get in radio, and they hired me to clean him before the first ever UM weekend to clean they fired people, and so like, we need somebody on the air, and

you already work here. And I went on the air and there's a it's hard to talk in radio terms, so you can turn a level volume knob all the way down and listen to something and just your headphones and it's called putting it in Q, so no one else can hear it except for you. It's like if a DJ is getting a song ready, he's playing turntables and he's listening to the next song he's about to play, he's kind of queuing up a spot. So you can

do this on the radio. Except I didn't know that on my very first shift and had all the levels up and I thought it was it was and I was playing everything over the top of each other and I said my real name, and I was so freaked out because we're like, your name is Bobby bones, and I was like, so the song would come on right, it would be like and I remember doing it. I felt so stupid, and so you know, he goes, I'd be like, continuous, hit me aboot, but let me started

up here. I got a whole she field. It'd be like, continue with same music. One on five point nine k lez It's Bobby All. Here's the new of them. The Google dolls slides and I remember my general manager calling and be like, what did you say? Your name was like like he hotlined me. It wasn't even my program director as my general manager of all people. So anyway, Google all was good. Went straight from there and we drove to Fort Wayne, which was about seven hours. And

usually we have a bus. We take a bus because we take a full band with us, unless we're doing a funny and all one stand up show, then we'll just fly and so, but because we were playing a festival on Friday, they got canceled and it was like a festival and Brad Paisley was headlining it with Randy Hawser and Chase Rice and we were like the fourth or fifth band end us and Maddie and Tay were kind of in that same spot on both nights. They canceled the festival for whatever reason, I don't know, but

they cancel the festival. So we didn't have anything to do, and so we would have taken the bus, but so instead we had one show and a bus cost a ton of money to rent, and so we just took a car and there were seven of us in an suv. And road tripping as an adult is not fun like road tripping as a kid because it hurts to sleep. You have to sit up and sleep and just turn your It's like being on an airplane for eight hours.

And you don't get on an airplane for eight hours unless you're going to another country, and then at least you're in another country when you end up. But no, if it's to Indiana, Indiana is not London, you know.

So that's what happened. So we wrote for eight hours and you can't sleep because you're just sitting up in your heads on the side, and everybody's like moving around, and just in the suit was stopping every two hours to get another Mountain Dew, which he was driving, but he was being paid to drive anyway, It's the whole thing. Uh FO, When you guys were awesome again if you can come to a Raging Idiot show, come especially because um there, I don't know how long we're gonna do this.

We are, by the way, finishing our kids record, and I don't we're not announcing it officially yet, but we did an EP, the Raging Kitty. It's and they're like five songs on it, and so we have another five or six that we're adding and making it a full record, and we've we've got a big deal with uh. I can't even say with who yet, but um, it's gonna be a pretty cool kids record. And for the first time I was listening to some of the songs, you got to hear something, I d Yeah, you want to

be five years old? Age YEA like Potty Party is the jam wait till you guys hear Potty Party. So there'll be a new Raging Kiddy It's uh CD coming out. So that's what we've been doing, is being on the road all the time and then coming back and doing the radio show. I got a call, I guess what is today? Today's Monday, because they're called Thursday or Friday.

So the thing inside the format it now in country is to make a show like ours to where the people like I really enjoy the music, but they aren't just only like it's the only music they know, because listeners that listen to the show of them, they don't just have country music on their iPhones. They have all kinds of music on their iPhones. And so as much as Hey, the licking you're here is isn't Michael myself,

it's it's Dusty. If you do here licking, he's he's licking himself, although he is new to it, so he's not Hey. Uh. So I got a call and he was like, hey, want to put it. I want to We want to put together a show like yours. You know, how did you do it? And I was like, well, I didn't put together the show. Really, the show kind of came together on accident and turned into what it is because nobody on the show it ever. And I

said this before on the air. I've ever done radio before, and so I was like, I mean, I can tell you what happened with the show. I mean I started in the morning and I was probably twenty one doing a morning show in Austin. Stop Dozy, you're good buddy, And I was by myself and I he was just

playing like thirteen songs an hour. And so from there I had an intern named Jill and she was on and then we didn't pay her, and she went to school at class eight o'clock, and so I graduate, just graduated college, and she was still in college, and so she'd be there till eight then she go to class. I mean, it's a really rinking in cooperation to think about it. And Austin's a pretty large market to have that happening in the morning. And so I met Lunchbox out at the bar and he was a delivery job

for Jason's Delhi and he comes in. He didn't have a microphone for the first year, got part time pay, was working other jobs. Amy was a friend for a long time, was selling Granted And I'm just explaining this to him, like we didn't go and find other people. I just found people that were interesting and kept them all in a room and we just kind of learned radio together, even the newer people on our show, because everybody knows, I mean, hopefully you know Amy story by now.

She was a Granted salesperson, met her, was a friend, friends for year year and a half or so before I brought her on the show Lunchbox was a delivery driver at Jason's Delhi Eddie, who's new to the radio show, but it's been my friend as long as just about any of those guys. Eddie was my TV producer for ten years, and that's what he does now. Has has produced the television and at least the visual stuff of

the show. But even the guys to work on our radio show that are in the glass room, which is the production people, like all three of those people at one point we're interns for the show. So I guess Ray is kind of the senior of that group. Now it's crazy to think about um and and Ray wasn't even a real intern. I don't think. I think Ray just showed up. And here's something that I get asked about a lot. Was car those shoes to be on the show a long time ago, And people I was like,

what happened to Carlos? And I've explained it like twenty times, and like, why are you're writing the book about Carlos? I didn't write in the book. I'm almost positive about anybody that didn't make the shift over to Nashville. Um, there were just too many people I write about Erica, who was a co host for a couple of years. There were a lot of people that didn't write about um But what happened with Ray? And people assume, and this is you guys being racist. Did I replaced That

is what they say. Oh, you replace one Mexican with another. You replaced Eddie with Carlos. That's what happened at all. There was no Eddie, We had no Eddie position. Eddie came on as an extra position once we came in. And so what had happened was Ray came in and worked for free for a year at least, just showed up and worked and worked and work and did audio and he did what Carlos was doing. And Carlos was was good at it and was a hard worker. But Ray came in. It was just like a different level

of efficiency. Um so and people Hay did Ray on the air, but he was just so good at what he did. And so were you did you ever work with Ray? He was an intern? As an intern, what was it like to work with Raisin? In turn? Like we didn't understand him. We were like, is that I thought it was? I thought Ray was a joke. I thought he was a character for a long time, but super Ray is the most efficient. I'm gonna take me out of it because I'm nuts, But Ray is the

most efficient person on the show. And so um, we had to bring an audio producer, and so it was a tough decision, and I had to bring what I thought was the best for the show. And Carlos is a great dude, and it was like it was good at what he did, but we had one spot. And as what the suck being a boss and a friend at the same time is that I had to look out for everybody else. So it came to the point of what what am I gonna do, like what's best for the whole group and for the show, And so

that spot, I didn't replace one Mexican with another. One more person says that to me, I'm gonna it's so much like, oh, he just replaced one Mexican with another. First of all, you have to have permission to call a span a person in Mexican, because but that he'd rather be called a Mexican. And so um, that wasn't

what happened. And Carlos stayed and produced the show locally on Case one on one in Austin and and he he did what Mike did for a while, and the plan was hopefully to eventually bring Carlos to Nashville, and eventually that didn't happen. Um, Mike ended up taking over Carlos's job. Mike D who's in here with me now

worked on our show now in Nashville. Mike D was an old intern of ours who took that job and then got moved to Nashville from that job, which was kind of the plan for Carlos, but there just was never anything for sure. So anyway, that's what happened. There was really nothing bad that ever happened. I mean no nothing, No ill will know anything. And for those that have

no idea, Carlos was produced. He was an intern for like then he produced a show for a bit as the audio producer, and then Ray came in and I mean just worked like crazy and we had one spot to fill and Ray kind of took that spot. And so, um, yeah, that was a really tough call for me to make, like personally, because I wasn't friends with Ray and I was friends with Carlos like I was. Carlson was a good dude. It was like a good friend. But that was m that was a really tough call. Um. And

then Morgan was an intern. Two. I went and spoke at Morgan's class at empty Issue, Middle Tennessee State, and I said, anybody want to in turn, here's my email address. And she emailed me and said, hey, I want to in turn. So interviewed her Atlanta interviewed her our old producers living in New York now and Atlanta by the way, an old intern um Atlanta interviewer, and and I talked to her, and she came in and she interned for a semester. Then she learned for another semester, and she

stayed around and then she rent out internships. And when we had a phone screener job open up because Sydney was answering phones, another old intern Sydney got, you know, was moving off to another country with her fiance. Um, you've seen the thing here. I like to keep all my own people, by the way, like it's all inside of the system. Um. So Sydney left. So I hired Morgan as a phone screener. Atlanta said Hey, I want to move to New York. I said, okay, great, give

me some months to find somebody. The person I was looking for happening to be Morgan, who was right under my nose the whole time. Morgan's now kind of shifted over to that spot. And that's kind of how the show is all together. Like there's no I never wentn't found anybody, like let's put together a radio show. It's all Morgan Ray and might be all former interns in the glass room. They're not interns anymore, like they're real paid people that are producing the largest country radio show

you know in America. And then it's Amy, a granite person lunchbox that delivery are from Jason's Deli, Eddie a TV producer, and me, I mean, I'm the only guy I've ever been on the radio, and he and then I was playing everybody kats lead Google Doll Slide like I didn't know what I was doing. So when they call like hey, I want to put together a show like yours, I have nothing. I don't know what to tell them. But you're seeing a lot of guys that

have a lot of interests. And here's the thing too about artists and country music is that they don't just listen to country music. The most annoying people are the people that go why don't you play some real country, And those are the most annoying people because it's just your definition of real country. That's the real country, is your definition of real country. And if the format were to stay where like in my heyday at the same time, when I was a teenager in early twenties, if they

were to stay there forever, it would just die. Because without forward movement, it's just nothing. It's death. So you may not like where it goes, and it goes in different directions and will continue to go in different directions, and I'll go in seventy and come back and you'll see it dies, and you don't want it to die. And the thing is, if like it so much, just keep supporting what you like. So well, if you like real country music, there's some great traditional sounding country music

artists out there. And I say traditional meaning just in everybody's head you think of the cowboy hat like this. This morning, I played Cody Johnson and I think that record is great that he put out, and people were like, finally you're playing some red dirt. No, I don't finally play any format. I just play what I think is good and what I like, and so I think that that was a good record, and so I played it this morning on the air and UH said, hey, you

should check it out. I've never met Cody Johnson, so it's not one of those where it's like I met him and saw him. I have no idea if you can play good live. I assume you can. Um and is the record is good? All right, so you can check it out if you want to see it. But I don't know. The music thing is annoying to me when people are like, hey man, this this music sucks. Okay, then don't buy it. Like nobody's forced me to buy anything. And you know what dictates, like what gets played in places,

how successful things are. I mean, look at a guy like Sam Hunt. Nobody was none of the traditional guys. And I'm using none as an overall statement because of course, if you did, none of the traditional guys wanted that to work or thought it would work because it was so different. But he was so good that it was undeniable and you had to play it. And Sam's a superstar now, and it wasn't because everybody was like, we gotta get Sam Hunt and play him all the time

because this is what country music is about. No, he was just so good it was undeniable. You cannot keep him off the radio because if you did, someone else was gonna play him, and they were gonna switch stations, or they were gonna go listen to some other form of music. They're gonna download it or something else. So whenever you say, won't you play some real stuff, Okay, you can support what you want to support, and I'll and that's great, I love you for it. But there

really is no such thing as real country music. And I get asked that a lot in interviews, like what is country music and what it used to be? And again you have to go back to like twenties and thirties. It would be people from an area of the country and it would be what they were influenced by in their southern kind of southeastern part of the country. And you know the Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas to a point, Oklahoma,

you know that whole southwest southeast kind of thing. And that was only what it was, and there weren't other factors coming into play. Because there wasn't ways to get music from the internet or whenever you would order eight CDs from whatever that service was. We used to steal sees from Did you ever do that? What was it called?

You remember? No, no, no, this is not download. This is where we used to check off a box and they would mail you eight CDs for a penny, and then then they keep sending them to you and charging you for other ones. There just was no other way to get music. So that's where they music came from,

and that's where it grew. Well, then you started to see it being affected by other music, Like you don't think Johnny Cash was affected by Elvis and some of these other rockers are crazy, Like Johnny Cash was rock and roll and country. He was, and he's in Arkansas. So for me being from Arkansas, you love people from where you're from, especially if throwing a lot of not you know, it's not like where California or New York where there are tons of famous people that come out

of Arkansas. So Johnny Cash is a big deal for my grandma, so it was a big deal for me. And then as today, you're seeing all these artists and they're influenced by so many things, and that's they're they're influenced by what they can download, what they can see on the internet, what they can read. But they still have the music that they grew up on and the voice that they have, and they want to remain authentic. And the thing about country music is you gotta be good.

And that's the real separator of it all. Like you have to be able to sing, you have to be able to perform, or you cannot make it in the format. That is the difference. And people say, what's because I mean, stylistically, there's not at times not a lot of difference between stuff here on pop and stuff here on the country radio. But I did pop for a long time, and I know a lot of those guys and they came in. They can't sing this format. You've got to be for

real or present an authentic image. And some of them aren't, not telling you some of the artists are full of crap and they're such they're just full of crap and they're not what they say they are, but they do a good job of presenting it. Um most of them are Southern are But you've gotta be able to perform or you're not gonna make it. And so I mean, real country of music is just an authentic voice and

you've gotta be talented. And I don't know if you ever had anyone come on the show and say they wouldn't perform, Like even the biggest act will come on the radio show and sing songs and perform like Garth brooks Keith Urban tim Ograwl Like they've all come in and performed. That's because they can. And they're all on time too. That's to think about the big stars. They're all on time every time. You know, he's not on time. The people, they're just getting their first hit and they

get new artist syndrome. The other words, they're like I'm star now. They get there late. There have been two or three acts I've been like, I'm not putting them on. They wanna be late. Cool not here, you know, but um there, I don't even know where I was going with that. Um My dog is now snoring. The problem is is the microphone right over him. He has his own microphone. He's sitting in the chair snoring. Um, this

is the first ever Bobby Cast. How long we into this thing, because notice that we had to be at least twenty minutes in the first one. Perfect we got more to talks when I'm gone, and which is a lot. People always ask what happens to my dog, and Dusty always stays at the house. He's like thirteen now, so he doesn't even go to doggy daycare anymore. So either Mike he stays with them at my house or Morgan stays with them at my house. And that's I mean, he never he doesn't leave. I'd like to move and

have a yard before he doesn't. He's not able to like run around anymore. But I don't know if that's gonna happen. Like my neighbors killing me, dude. I tried taking a nap today. My sleep schedule is completely off because I've had late nights and so I just can't flip it back over. So we traveled when we drove back from Fort Wayne, and it got in like seven in the morning, So I slept till about eleven am, and they went to bed last night and like seven pm,

and it was pretty exciting. I was so sleepy. And then I woke up at like eleven pm and it was up and I've you know, been up forever. And then I tried to taking a nap. And my neighbor has been renovating his place for like eight months. It seems like Boo always banging on the walls. He did send me an edible arrangement once, so I guess that's uh equal. But I'll see him sometimes, we'll be over there. It's awkward, like to made did you make them my

life miserable? Man? Uh, it's just in their built because are my bedroom in his places where it's connected because we're the only two places on on this floor. But yeah, it is. It is not good. UM at a call today with a station that we're going on. M hmm. I don't know if I can say what station it is because that has been announced and they're The weird thing is sometimes they'll say, hey, you're going on in this city. They don't say anything yet. You can't say

anything yet because some people don't know whatever. And there are some cities that we're gonna come on soon and

you know whatever. But it had a UM call with a city today and I was talking with the person with The great thing is is that the morning people will usually just go to the afternoons, so there's no job lost, because the last thing I want may to lose their job at a time when it's hard to keep a job in this industry, in any sort of creative film period, it is a matter, radio, TV painter, musician, like,

these are impossible jobs. There are possible jobs to get their possible jobs, to keep their possible jobs, to be successful at. And if you are successful, it's impossible to be successful for a long time, and so just hold on for as long as you can, like there's only a window that's open for so long. And that's why I just go so hard right now, because I don't think it's gonna last forever. So I got books and albums and radio shows and stay like my window. Who

knows how long this thing is gonna be open. So anyway, they call and I'm doing I'm talking to the current morning show, and it's just one of the cities are shows going in soon, And I'm so jealous because they get to go to afternoons. My life would be so much better if I could sleep in, because I'm not a morning person. And you think, wow, you do a morning show, you're just so like happy in the morning.

By the time I get on the air at five Central six Eastern, or if you're Pacific, I've had about three hours of fighting my soul being happy or awake, and so by that time I'm you usually okay, but I walk in, I walk into that building in the morning. I'm not mean or rude. I just I'm just not a morning person. And there aren't a lot of pleasantries exchanged. Like I walk in, I walk to the microphone, and I just start cutting liners and I think it's just

that's just understood right, like like I'm not angry. It just takes me about an hour in that building before I finally have the morning nous out of me. I hate morning so much. I love doing the show. Like, my favorite place to be in the whole world is when that microphone is on and I'm in that studio. That's my favorite place to beat. My second favorite place to be is on stage doing stand up, but my favorite place to be on the radio. And so once

the show starts, I mean, I'm on, I'm good. But what is it when I when I come in, What's what's the feeling like when I walk in? Is it like right, relaxed? Dude? Is it because it's straight I go straight to work. Theren't I don't go in and say everybody, good morning. There's no good mornings. No, it's just like you're there, it's time to work, time to get stuff done. So we just go. You know, there's not like hey, do you guys do haze like a quick what's up? But even like then, if we don't

say anything, it's not like a big deal. We could just walk in and start working. It's just yeah, and it's probably listen, you all probably do that because I do that. And if I came in and made a big deal every day, I was like, oh my goodness, as good as that's probably how we do it. I'm not saying that's not a better way to do it, but god, I am just um not a morning person at all. I don't know how long I can do the morning thing I got. I don't know. I don't.

Usually people tell you something like well, but then after you have the whole day to do stuff, you know, you're exhausted the whole day. You don't have the whole day because you're exhausted. My days will go like this, I will get up but three, I'll do the radio show until whenever, um, and then I just have met a hundred meetings. It's just meetings all the time, stupid meetings, and then important meetings and meetings. I got new books and radio stuff and research and um, I mean, what

time I've a spray tan in a bit? You know, it's only that's really not that important. But and so then I have to work out every day at three o'clock. That's my one hour that I set aside to go do that. And then I get home and I start working on the show, and we set this little studio up in here, and it's like, man, how awesome would be to be able to do this at five o'clock at night. But that's not where the listeners are. Everybody's the listeners are in the morning. So but I love it.

Like once, I know some radio morning guys and I wish I could do this. They just wake up and go right there and do the show. There's wake up. They trust everybody to have everything done and they walk right into it and go all right, what are we doing today? And that's it. That's it. I can't do that. I'm such a control for Wereek, Like I I need to have spent two and a half hours on it the night before. I need to have read every news story. I need to wake up. I have a grid on

my computer and I put down that. I mean, every single segment I put in and we rarely stay on, but I probably have enough prepared for two shows every single day in case something doesn't go right, but I can't. I always thought I want to be one of those guys because I admire the fact that they can do that and still do a successful show, because I mean, they've also hired really good people and they maintain ratings and but you know, like the late night hosts, that's

what they do for the most part. They have writers and they walk in and go, all right, what are we doing? And they tell him what to do and that's it. They go, I'm but I still run my own board too, which a lot of shows don't do. And again it's not it's just because I'm weird and I'm scared. If somebody else pushes a button, I guess the building burns down or something. So, uh, there's that. I wrote some stuff down to talk about in this podcast, but I guess I'm not keeping it. I was just

talking about Justin Bieber's winer and Orlando Bloom's winer. They were they had pictures where they were. Orlando Bloom was with Katie Perry and they were on like a paddle board and Justin Bieber was in Hawaii. I think they were both butt naked and like the winners were out. Don't you look at them? I think I saw Did you see that? Did you look at the Blacktown win or did you search for the real winer? Yeah? I saw, Listen,

I saw. I'm curious about them, Like I'm not into guys, um, but I'm always curious because I don't let guys lie to you because for a guy to say, yeah, I'm not curious what another guy's got down there, they're lying like we're all it's like I wonder how much that person makes. It's the same thing like I wonder how much money he makes to doing that job. That's how this guys feel like, oh man, I wonder what he's

got down there. And also you want to if you have a girlfriend, always want to know, like if you can know like the like the last guy they dated and what they had down there, that'd probably a good little meter two because when you know how hard you had to work afterward or if it was even worth it. Does he stopped looking the the leather. My dog is a leather thing when he just licks leather all the time.

So I was gonna do a whole thing on Beaver and Orlando Wims Winers and how it's basically like us wondering, Like if Shaq were peeing beside me, I would look, yeah, no doubt, and like I would look, and I would look down quickly, but I would look because I was for science. I always say I'd be cure, I'd be curious. Um. But again it's just the same thing as science. I'm wondering how much like I don't know how much Charlemagne makes no idea, be curious to know? An take a peek.

If I if this contract were in front of me and there was an option of it being blacked out or not, I click on the knot and I want to see. And just because I want to know. In comparison, if Ryan secret contract or laying in front again, I think, look this if they look so, yeah, I looked, I definitely clicked on that. I gotta hacked or someone tried

to hang my Apple account. So I got locked at an email for a whole day, and so I couldn't log into my computer or my email or my any of my Apple I D stuff, And so I called Apple and they were like, okay, someone tried to long into you account multiple times. So someone tried to hack my account and they couldn't get my password because my

passwords crazy. It's like, you know, hippopotamus likes I have nuts passwords, and so they couldn't get into my password, but they tried so many times they're just locked it down. And so I called Apple, which, by the way, to be such a big company, great customer service at Apple. Like I got on the phone with the guy and he was like, hey, man, how's your day going. I was like great. I was like, I got a problem. We're talked about the problem. But he was like, you

got we got a family. How are they I'm like no, but thanks for asking. You know. It was a whole thing. And so we go through and he goes, it's gonna be twenty four hours before you can get in. So they send you a link with at exactly twenty four hours, and then you only have three hours to activate it because then the link dies. So it's super efficient. Boom. I got it logged back in, but and then all my emails like like a hundred all at once, but I got like hacked over the weekend. The weird thing

about it is they ask you security questions. But I set up my security questions like eight or nine years ago when I first set up my Mac, my Apple account on my first Mac, and it was like one and I posted a question on Twitter. They asked me on January one, two thousand, what were you doing? I have no idea or I don't. I have no I was like at New Year's parties enter nope, apparently I was master no and like none of it works. Yeah, none of it worked. And so I didn't even know

my security questions. So that's why I ended up calling Apple and they were like, who was your best friend's sister? And I was like, well, it was weird because you set up those security questions from eight years ago. It's completely different. Um. So that happened this weekend as we were on the road going to um Fort Wayne, UM, and I guess that's that's that's pretty much it. Hopefully this thing works. This is our first real, like decently

long episode. UM. If you're listening to this, you can send me a tweet let me know, Uh, just in the suit, just go Just in the suit will call me. Like when I I don't like talking on the phone, I like the text or FaceTime. I like to talk and just in the suit who by the way, I like as a person a lot. But he called every time and he'll be like, hey, Bud, how are you doing my good man? We're talking fifteen minutes ago. What's up? No,

just hear it work and then go and go with you. Yeah, like to Golet's get to the point it is going good with me. What's up? You know, just happened another day? Just you know, things are come on. Get to the point about minute happen to It'll be like, okay, so listen, buddy, we got a sound check tomorrow at five o'clock. We go with that. Yep, okay, cool, talk to you later. Like we go to eight percent of time wasted to get to one question. I have friends I work with,

like I call. It's like, it's not My tone can come off as rude sometimes, especially in an email, because it's just like so direct like to, but man, I do not need the the pleasant tries, especially if it's about work stuff Like I have friends and I talked too, and I'm like, dude, what's happening now? You've been what's

what's going on with your life? But when he calls you four times in one day, and every one of them is like, hey, buddy, how you doing well this I'm doing what I'm doing like an hour ago, Like I'm fine, just got just working out. I hate the gym, but I'm good, which, by the way, I mentioned I work out from three to four every day most days if I'm not on the road, but like I don't. I hate exercising, and that you lost over a hundred pounds of mic So have you found an enjoyment and

exercising or no? A little bit like running sometimes it's kind of like I cleared my head a little bit, but like the process of getting ready to go, it's like this is terrible. I don't want to do this. I hate all of it. I have a trainer that I really like and so that I could call him major Pain and I really enjoy him. But I hate working out like all the time. And if I didn't have a job that's somewhat depended on my image, I

probably wouldn't. I would just go man or maybe if I had, if I get a why a girlfriend, like I still feel like I gotta be at peak shape, especially for my company, like they use me and a lot of things visually, and I know that, and I know that's part of my job, and so I take that seriously. So I try to stay in good shape. It's definitely not for any other reason because I hate exercising. There's never a time where I'm like, sure, do you feel like exercising? Never. Never, It's like waking up in

the morning for the show. I never wake up at three o'clock and go, what a beautiful day. Let's because never, but I do it. But I don't even feel bad for me who. I feel bad for our females, especially once because I have friends females that are in country music or just females that are in public period, Like they have such a harder expectation on them. Like if you don't have a flat stomach and you're a female, people are like, oh I saw in TMZ it was

like maybe Lindsay Lohan. It was like, what is it a baby or a burrito for lunch? And it's like, dang, Like I think I got it bad. But I can put on a few pounds and it's fine. But females, man, you guys have a rough I felt feel bad for you, Like if you don't have a tight stomach and your female people be like, no, they ain't gonna work. Look at her, look at her, but let's see you email me. Oh, check it out. We're announcing another show, a big show tomorrow,

a raging idiot show at a football stadium. Yeah. Yeah, I can't say who it is yet. They just send me the graphic for it. Um, you're playing football stame before Um, I get uh. We played after an Arkansas Razorback game right outside the stadium, and I guess this isn't in the stadium. I can't say where it is. I just say it's ah mm hmm. I can't. I don't want get in trouble. But we're playing with a

couple of big artists. And so the last time Brad Paisley had his open for him for two shows, one of Baylor before a game and then one after the Razor Arkansas razorback game. So we opened for Brad Paisley two shows and I'm a die hard Razorback fan. And they lost the game. We had to play after the show. It was awful. I don't want to be there. I don't want to play. I was mad because we lost

the game. It was just not good. But this one is now that I'm looking at it, it's the night before the game and there are two major country artists and us playing. I don't know why they. I mean, they put us on this stuff because people listen. I'll say this about our shows now, they're fun. We've gotten a lot better. We have a good band with us too, Like we have a great band that plays with us,

and they're fun. Like when we go into Peaches by the President's people are like, man, did I talk about this? Ye who? People think we wrote the song times people people haven't heard it before. They'll be like, hey, do you guys put that Peaches on because it's so dumb, it's so old, and so if you're young and you don't know Peaches about the President of the United States of America, you're like. People are like, oh, that Pezza

sounds really good. You guys are a good one. They're like, now, we didn't write that, but we'll play stuff like this. It just you and we have our songs. We play like six of our songs maybe, and then we play like eight or nine covers and some comedy songs, you know, that kind of stuff. During the show, move into the country gonna eat a lot of peaches. I'm moving into the country, Gonna eat me a lot of peaches. I'm moving into the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches.

Move into the country. I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches. Come. We played that, and half the crowds like, yeah, half you guys like what's happening? But I'm looking at it. We're playing Guitarbeque on Wednesday, and um, I don't know when you're gonna hear this. We're recording this on the August eighth, which is is today Monday, Monday, Monday Night.

We play Wednesday Night at Guitarbecue, and the order of performers is Chris Lane, then Brandy Clark, then John Party, then Us the Raging Idiots, then Dustin Lynch and then keep more in that order. So we're kind of in the middleish to back end of it. Um. So we have a night spot, which is good. Um, and so we're probably play peaches. I'm looking to just set us now. But here's thing artists gets so like they they think if they cover a song, or they cover too many songs,

that crowds won't take them seriously. Like crowds love it when artists cover songs and maybe artists like one cover. Sometimes artists want to play covers on our show. But like people love to hear songs they know, unless it's your favorite artist. We like to hear songs we know, like from the radio, Like if there's some new artists out and it's like, okay, like I like to hear I want to hear you do Peaches. Maybe I mean hear you do Peaches and then if you go to that,

listen to your other stuff. But artists hate doing covers. One in particular was like I don't do covers, and I was like, interesting, Okay, well we'll see and seeing a couple months, I guess because we had this segment plan where we where we do a cover and then then an original. But no, I like, um, this is my email going off. I like it when artists doo covers.

But if you ever come to Raging Idians show, like we're not real anyway, but we have like five or six songs that we we play when I grow up. Every day is a good day, uh Starbucks. But then we just play our favorite songs to cover our favorite songs and then we'll bring someone like you know, we had Lindsay yelled with us, which she hadn't played with us in a long time, and so we're lucky enough to get her to come out and um open up the show. And then we also let them do some

of their favorite stuff too. It's a total self serving show, like we just play our favorite songs. But Lindsay has a song called all all Right, which is not even out like yeah, I mean, I think you can download the version at the operation maybe, but it's not even like out as a record song. But it's so good it's like I can't get out of It's like, uh, all right, up, all right, all right? Times long games, it's hard to tell and I can't tell when the

school and get better times. Oh I need to do is look at you and you're begging hair face itself. We can make money to do last forever if we go broke and go broke together. If you're with me, baby, it's gonna be all right. We can make play on the change on the diamond up somewhere we didn't have mine. Could you win me in the front seat. It's gonna leave all right. So that's a live version too, that's

not even a studio version. That's we're playing live at the operating so that's no bells and whistles just like there. It is live and you played with us. Um, So I think that's what we're freak gonna wrap. Now what does this thing hold? Like? What's if we were going to do a long one? What would be the long as we could do? Really? What are we at now? This is episode one? We're gonna call it here? What

did you learn today? And Mike, I learned that if there's a celebrity next to you using the restroom, not any celebrity, if you're average, if you're average size, I'm not gonna look down. If there's a picture on the internet, I'm gonna look if it's out there. But they're butt naking their celebrities that are in public, like what you expect. You can get a picture taken. I'm not gonna look

down at everybody's wener like I'm not. But I'm saying, if Shack, we're standing next to me at seven pital, I'm curious, um, and these pictures were out, they were in public. I feel bad for Justin Bieber though, like people like jes Aeper doesn't even know what it's like to be a normal human. He just doesn't know what it's like royalty. It's easy to go, well, they're rich, you it's life's easy for them. But in their minds and they're not really that rich. They've always been this way.

It's like us, we've always been this way. Then people in third world countries could look at us and go, oh, that's rich. It's all. There's always perspective. And Justin Bieber been famous and he was like twelve and has all this time and all this money, and nobody really tell him right and wrong, and he's had some struggles, and I look at it and I'm like, man, there's just nobody to send him in the right direction. I feel bad for him. I was looking at the pictures of

him and a bunch of models in Hawaiian. Somehow it's feeling bad for him because you just have a bunch of time to kill a bunch of money, and it sounds great to someone like us. To me doesn't sound great at all, Like I need a regiment, I need to work, I need to be on. But most people don't feel sorry for Justin Bieber because he's got money. I'm a type for someone who grew up not having

any money at all, like major broke too. Now I do pretty well, like whatever, You're still the same person, Like you still say very than you can buy shining your things, and you can make sure your dog get better dog food. But even then it doesn't only matter that much. I'm no happier now than I was ten years ago. You just find a different place to put it. But one day she'll come along. She will. Okay, that's it. I'll leave you with a little something here, little something

I'm working on. I didn't know Mike was gonna put this um up here, but we have this kid's record coming out there now, I'll we talked about later. But when I'm working on, like secretly is the the secret mixtape, the hip hop mix tape, Super Secret Mixtape, And so it's just a bunch of hip hop songs and my old hip hop name with Captain Caucasian and so I've been bringing him out.
