Woop is currently, I wouldn't say my favorite app. Twitter is probably my favorite app still. But whoop is a very close second because I spend a lot of time on my whoop. If you guys don't know, Woop is a fitness tracker. It is a strap that you have on your wrist and it measures a lot of good insight data. Your strain, your daily stressors throughout the day, elevated heart rates. I just said heart rate, but it tracks your heart rate throughout the day. It measures your sleep, your 8.

HRV, your resting heart rate, your respiratory rate, a lot of good shit. They're partnered with the NFL. They're partnered with the PGA. And the best thing is you don't have to be an athlete to have this strap. Any athlete or fitness person out there, I highly recommend go check out whoop this strap because it is a game changer for me playing football, tracking my data every day, how much sleep I'm getting, how much strain I need to put on my body in the weight room while I'm in. season. Like right now I'm actually looking at how much sleep I need to be getting tonight to not only perform tomorrow, but to peak tomorrow. It gives you options on how much sleep you need to be getting to peak, to perform, and just to get by, which is all in their

sleep coach, part of the app. But another cool thing is their community. They provide you with a lot of good articles, a lot of good insight to read on to help you optimize and perform and just live a healthy lifestyle. Again, you don't need to be an athlete. I'm actually in the of getting my dad on this thing, because I think there's a lot of benefit to it. You get to see how much you're disturbed throughout the night. All, again, all of your sleep data, everything, man. And they're hooking us up with 15% off for our listeners. You just got to go to whoop.com.

So you can create a team, whether it's family members, or friend, group, a team you're a part of. You guys can compete and compare data every day and all day long. And just have a healthier lifestyle.

I truly think this is the best fitness tracker out there. I wear it every day when I'm at practice or playing in the game. I tape around it because I think all that data is very beneficial for my not only that moment, but the next day and the days that come to set myself up better. But again, go to whoop.com.

I know. They're diving everywhere. Did you play something? I play college golf.

Oh. Oh, you swing that thing, huh? You play around here? I just had a very satisfying round last two weeks ago, maybe. Just south of Nashville, Darius Rucker asked me to come out and play on his team. Did you guys win? No, we didn't win, but we had a long drive competition. I didn't hit a golf ball in three years.

How'd you do, though? You probably did good. I piped it at 320. You know how like you come the first time The first time of the year And you actually play well And you're like, I'm going to have a good year this year And then the next week and everything

That's why I don't play anymore Because I show up once every three years And just ball out Where'd you play in college? Lipscomb here in Nashville So what is that like? What's that workout like? Those workouts pretty tough

This is back in the day When working out at HRV sports No We uh, it's crazy We did go through transition Freshman year, sophomore year year not really any working out and then I guess a new coach that gave a crap and believed in physical fitness.

And he started making us go to 630 a.m. or whatever they were. But thank God he did. I was 130 pounds soaking wet, you know, until he made me start lifting. Was it like a good 130 pounds or was like a... No, it was good. Because you were solid. I didn't realize how much, you know, you're walking with a bag on your back. We did back in the day, we were walking 36 on Monday, 18 on Tuesday.

You're walking 36 holes carrying your own bag. Yeah. And then, you know, obviously on the off weeks, we're practicing playing. every day carrying our back. So, you know, what's the average golf around seven miles or something? Carrying a bag. It's wild. That keeps you in shape.

Hell yeah. No doubt it does. What do you weigh in now? Like 173-ish. I'm starting to watch what I eat. It's been good. Quarantine's been great, man. I finally get legit sleep.

You probably one of the first people to say that. I know, I know. Quentin's been good. I've kind of like gotten in the little snack drawer a little too much. I hate he goes. I went to his house yesterday. Rice, crispy treats and shit kettle chips with jalapino. No, hey.

How good. I should fire, my dude. I was in that thing. I was kind of eating a couple. I left my house. I've been like super like on this path, like trying to eat super healthy. I kind of got home and I was like, oh, I had a little rumbling in the tummy. I was hurting a little bit.

I was definitely hurting. That's a good thing, though. So quarantine's been good to you. It has. Yeah. I think, you know, I've realized. Well, you know, I've been touring for 10 plus years straight. And I've realized what I've been working for.

I get to enjoy those things. And then what real sleep is again. I'm having dreams. Like I hadn't had a. dream legit deep dream in a long long time because of like no sleep and shit yeah i think you're you get used to the bus and then you come home and you're not moving and so you don't sleep well you know or you're freaking out i got to get this done at the farm or whatever it is um just kind of being in a normal routine for weeks at a time now it's been like whoa i'm purposely going to take off

at least a month a year now yeah for it for just a me just because you got to reset yeah you got to reset like usually if we don't make the playoffs well and i know we've you for sure do too sometimes like take off all of january like you need that time to just have a like some sort of mental like relaxation to like get yourself back to a baseline it is it's great man it's it's been good i think this was a blessing in disguise for me so yeah other than my bank account yeah this shit's getting out there dude people are like this son of a bitch millionaire like your bank account people so mad about it no i mean i've got 30 families you know on salaries you know so it's like i'm feeding a lot of mouths and we're not bringing money in and and and you just

just, you know, you try to keep life good for them. I don't realize that. You know, I've got a lot of overhead. You said you've been torn for like 10 plus years and you're talking about now incorporating another month. Like these last 10 years, you feel like you're just go, go, go, just all the time all year long? Yeah, pretty much, man.

We've toured hard. I mean, we had 180. I think our record year was like 184 shows. Damn. That's not counting travel days. That's not doing nothing. Bro, that is crazy. You're not doing anything but singing.

It's 50% of actual performing, not the. traveling and TV and all that stuff on top of it um but i would never do that again i don't any any young up incoming artists never do that it's not well that's not like that it kind of goes into the 10 000 hours thing right that book the out last thing like to master something you got to put a lot of time in like comedians they they have to go up and you have to bomb over and over and over again just to become like for sure somewhat relevant or somewhat good what was inspiring us to work so hard as we were finally making money you know you go it's weird the entertainment is so weird. I wish I had somebody that would tell me all of the things not to do or what to do and what to expect. Because you get on the radio, you have a big hit, you have another hit. And you're making, I was making way less money. I was broke, couldn't pay rent. And you're on the radio and shit. On TV performing. Really? And before that, I was playing a lot of frat parties and weddings and stuff and making dough. But you're going to 10 years. Now I'm on TV with no money.

You're going to 10 roof. Famous became a fit. I live. Yeah. Yeah. What's up? Tinroof. I lived across the street from Tenroof in that hotel. Dude, everyone does. For a while. The hotel? Yeah. Before they re-did it, man. But I always get the room that had the jacuzzi in it.

Oh, nice. I go in a park there for a few days and they hit the road again. You can't pay a bill, but he's got a jacuzzi in his room. I like that. So you were saying stuff to do and not to do. Like, if you could go back or talk to your young stuff, like, what are these things that you're saying, hey, handle this situation this way? You know what I'm saying?

Because you're like, I'm on TV now, but I'm not making money. So what are things you wish you would have known back then? Well, I don't think you can get around that. That's just kind of how it's structured. But, you know, I think what is, is, I've learned that loyalty can, being loyal, over loyal, I guess, to an extent, can hurt you. Yeah. Loil is too far. Whenever you're, whenever you're telling you shouldn't do something, but you're like, I want to be loyal.

I want to do this. Man, look out for yourself. You know, that kind of comes off in a bat. Yeah. I think a lot of times people always say, like, you need to be loyal. You need to be this. But it's like, the older I've gotten, the more of really. is like no one's looking out for your inhibitions and goals more than you are.

Yeah. And I think you can say it like, be loyal to yourself. Right. Before somebody else. Yeah. No, I would agree. I mean, in the business world, or business world, in the NFL world. Which is a business.

Yeah, which is a business. In the business world of the NFL. I like that. I just played on top of that. It's stacked it up. It's like, you know, you sit in the auditorium, the team locker rooms and all that stuff. And it's just, it's loyalty to like, you know, the team and you just love the camaraderie with the boys.

Yeah. And for like, say my example, when your contract is up and you're no longer with them, there's just like that personal kind of like just bitterness. Like, man, I was so loyal to, and I'm not saying like I deserve to have something. I'm just saying like as your own person. You're like, man, I wish they'd offer me another contract because I put, you know, so much into the locker room or the team or what the coaches and everybody wanted to do. And it's just like, it's just the nature of the beast, dude.

And like you were saying it. Like, you got to kind of be loyal to yourself. That's it. You go first. We don't know what's going to happen with his pot. He'd probably drop me in a heartbeat. What I would sell him out. He probably run me over with this shit, dude.

No question. I get the bus started just to run him over if I could. And then if it gets long enough and successful enough, and then I'm like, hey, you know, I kind of, now I got what I went out of it. He's like, and tell him back, yo, I was, what about the days where I was doing what I didn't want to do? You know, you just kind of, we're not, that's not going to happen. But it could. It could. Absolutely.

We'll sell everybody on this bus. Everybody out of this bus today. Jack, he just got here. I know. Jack. New interns. Jack is a new intern. Josh is a new intern. Josh. Got seen you. Jack. Jack looks like he's from California, but he grew up in Nashville. He's a unicorn. And Josh, where are you from? Do you're sitting the mic. I'm from here. Yeah, good work. He's a two-levels. Corey Levin, too. I know he's boy. Shout out Corey Levin, dude. Worst risk player I've ever seen in my entire life. Going back to the business thing, though, dude, it's crazy.

Like, in my, like, in my first year, I got drafted here. and then Ken Wisenhunt was a coach. And I was like super loyal to Ken. And then halfway through my second year, he gets fired. And I was like kind of doing whatever I could to be like the best, like the best team player, the best captain, the best whatever I could be. And Mike Malarkey, who, you know, I don't have a lot of positive things to say. So I won't very say very many things.

But Mike Markey like took the sea from me and all that. And it was like, it was really hard because you think in your head like, I'm doing everything I can to help this team and like you guys are just shitting on me. Right. And then I get done with the season. And there was all this talk of Larry Tunsell, who's had a good career, but him being the first pick overall in the draft and the Titans picking him and getting rid of me and all this stuff.

And that was like my first real taste. It was my first real taste. I had something happen to Michigan as well. But when you're making money. They're kind of, yeah. Yeah. It's crazy how like you go from feeling like you're still a part of something. And like in an instant, you're like, I could just get rid of me like that.

Yeah. Like it could be over in a second. Or traded. You know what I mean? Yeah, that's weird. I think that's what keeps it fun for us exciting. You know, it's the same. I think with music, you know, we're not guaranteed another hip.

You guys aren't guaranteed another contractor game. You know, if you get hurt, whatever. So I don't know. There's, you know, I think we're attracted to that. Right, right. You kind of sit back and you, we don't know what the outcome's going to be. Right. You know, you don't know.

Well, a lot of times, like, there's people that are wired a lot of different ways. Like, there's people that are wired that are going to work nine to five jobs. Like, you're going to be in a cubicle because that's like, just how you're wired. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? There's people that are like, not saying weird those people, but like taking chances and wanting to do more. Like these guys back here who are working, doing internship, they're trying to strive towards something like in production, do something with, you know, entertainment, cameras behind the scene stuff. That's not something you would just do on a daily basis.

Like you have to go and like have an itch to go do something. Sure. For us, it's like, you know, I remember when I was eight years old, I was leaving a little league baseball game. And my dad, I like let a ground ball go through my, like, go through my legs. And my dad said something to me. And my dad listens his podcast, so I feel really bad telling the story.

He's like, yeah, shout out, Dave Luan. And he's like, he's like, hey, listen, like, there's always going to be somebody better than you. It's just how the world works. Someone's always going to be better than you at something. And even when I was like eight-year-old, I was like, man, fuck that.

That's stupid shit to say. Because, like, I mean, and I know what he was trying to, I know that what he was trying to accomplish by then by saying, like, don't beat yourself up too much people and make mistakes. I think that's what he was trying to tell me. But, like, you know,

I think there is a difference in entertainment as an artist or as a comedian or as an athlete or an actor. Like you just, you have this strive to want to do something that like, you know, if it was easy, everybody would do it, but they can't. And be the best too. Yeah. You said what? Be the best too.

Yeah, no question. It's a journey, man. It's the journey, man. It's the journey of getting better every day. I think it's what I'm addicted to. It's constantly trying to get better, be a better entertainer, write a better song, sing better, party better. Well, it seems like you're accomplishing these things. Well, 2020's taking an L, but you had some shit going.

Over all, we're going. I found my silver lining in this year. Right, right, right. But I'm saying you got a, you have new stuff out. Yeah, that's what sucks the most for me. I worked really hard the last two years to put out my newest album called Telehoma. And we put it out back in January and hit the road right afterwards on this big tour. Then we were picking up with Old Dominion, which Matt Ramsey was in here.

Yeah, we had a Ramsey, dude. I wish Ramsey could come on the bus, man. It was so hard doing Zoom podcast, but he was really good. He was really good on the TV. He had that goddamn bird in the camera, remember? Yeah, he was sitting outside. No, no, he was sitting outside.

Him and Chase Rice. They're all sitting outside. Like, hey, man, we get it. It's nice out today, but like, get you ass inside. You get your bird there. It's kind of those things that just like, it's like a fire alarm that just keeps beeping in the house.

We need to send Matt Ramsey a pet bird is what we need to do. We should say the word. What if we send him like a parakeet in the cage? Hey, Chase is getting bison. You tell you about that? No. He's got like 120 acres or whatever in some area. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah, he's getting bisoned.

He sent me a text run random night at like 9 p.m. It was like, come out. It's like, it's a Monday, Chase. I'm not coming to your place 45 minutes away. It's crazy. Man's getting bison out in the middle of nowhere, though. That's crazy. Crazy shit out there.

You were talking about touring with Old Dominion? Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. So we were supposed to sit there over there in the summer. We had a big summer of festivals too. And that's the momentum that we were building off the new album. and just seeing the crowd start to sing all the songs and everything is what I'm addicted to. It's so much fun to put something together and then watch it grow over the course of a year all over the world.

And people know every word and can't wait to party with you. So that kind of that rug gets pulled out from under you and it's like, damn, that stinks. Now when all that stuff gets shut down, is there like, how do you go about planning it to happen, I guess again? Like delayed, is it delayed in 2020? It's weird. I don't know. Or is something in 2021 you look at now? I think we'll get back out this year. This episode of Bustin with the Boys is also brought to you by Body Armor.

Body armor is sponsoring the boys. And it fires me up because, again, another brand who sponsors and partners with the NFL is sponsoring the boys. Whoop is partnered with the NFL. Body armor is partnered with the NFL. Summer's over. Football is finally back. And the best way to stay hydrated all season long is with our favorite sports drink body armor. Body armor is all over the facility.

My favorite flavor of body armor, tropical citrus. After that goes, mixed berry, fruit punch, strawberry banana, orange mango, and then grape. Not a big grape guy, but hey, they got it. I know people like it. Body armor has no artificial sweeteners, flavors or dyes. It's potassium-packed and full of electrolytes with all the things you need to keep hydrated. through the summer months, through the football season all year long, and it tastes phenomenal. We have all the COVID and quarantine protocols going on right now.

So everything you do in the cafeteria, you've got to get bags and you have to get like individualized food, like individualized meals because you can't do buffet sale or share food with anybody because all the COVID stuff. So the bully, I rack up a couple bags. I wait till after hours, after meetings are over. And I wonder in there, I wonder in the cafeteria with a nice little bag like I'm trick-or-treating. And I just stuffed my bag with freaking body omers, dude, like I'm at 7-Eleven. The shit is that good. And it stays stock to my fridge. The boys love it.

Athletes everywhere are drinking it. And you need to make it your top sport drink right now. Learn more at drinkbodyhammer.com or order any of their flavors on Amazon right now. Again, for the boys, drink body armor. Shout out body armor. No free shoutouts. You know, there's some shows that are looking like they want to have. happens, you know, at the end of summer. So fingers crossed, we can. Yeah. I can't take not

playing much longer. You know, you just become, it's part of you, you know, after a while. You got to kind of have that, that high. So, I hope we get back at it. But I don't know, I'm working. I'm writing like crazy right now because I feel like I'm going to need new music by the time we get cranking again, you know. It's like this album's going to be just chewed up all year. Hopefully, people enjoy it all year and then we'll need something else. What's that process like for you when you have to go and write something? Like, how do you sit down? How do you get kind of motivated to go and like go and write something yeah it's it's weird i'm kind of drawn from inspiration of being home right now which usually i'm drawn from inspiration being on the road in

that life so i don't know i think we'll get a different record out of it you know um for sure different content no doubt because you know you're as a rider i grab pieces you know just from riding on the tractor this morning or whatever it is you know and i just kind of store them and then they'll fall out on a page months down the road um lyrically so that's kind of where my stuff comes from but but yeah i guess being home's going to be do you feel like that'll be like a trend when like say 2021 and stuff like that, people have albums that kind of get the inspiration from being at home during the quarantine.

Yeah, I think, you know, I've had this conversation with my co-writers these past couple weeks is, man, if we don't put out the best music of the next 30 years after this year, what are we doing? Like, I mean, all of us as creators have never had the chance to be, I don't know, to be in this kind of washing machine of what the hell is going on and so many things to write about and just like. being completely different.

It's not normal for anybody right now. So I think some great art is going to get made this year. Do you get to get on like Zooms with these guys? Yeah, we're Zooming. How does that work? Like, yeah. Because when we do a Zoom,

the shit's all over the place. Like we're a little. But they get to kind of hang out. There's like awkward pauses and we're like, okay, sorry, well, no,

no, it's your turn to go away. Oh, yeah. How do you write a song with somebody and you're like, all right, I'll play this. No,

no, you go ahead and say the thing. Well, you know, it's not like conversation. Usually, I mean, there are those moments, but usually somebody's got an idea. They throw it in and somebody listens as you come to it. What I love about Zoom, in the old days, you kind of felt like you're phoning it in.

If you were Zooming, like, oh, what a prick. You don't want to drive to the studio, you know, but now we're having success doing it. And you don't feel bad if you stink the, the, if you have to go take a dump next door and stick the studio up. Like, you're at your house. It's great. I mean, yesterday I'm literally making a sandwich and coming up with lyric ideas because I've got my computer in the kitchen with me. So, I mean, there's no, hey, let's break for lunch. I don't know.

It works. I think we'll still get, seems like the vibe of the creative community. Everybody wants to get back together because there's something about the BS. There's a community. There is. Yeah. And, you know, tracks hit different when you're all together and can drink together, whatever you do against spread together.

How much you do, like, when you say, like, people are itching to get back, a lot of, like, people are like, hey, like, companies are saying stay at home. Like, this is going to be the new norm for us now. Yeah. We're just going to, like, office spaces seem to be something that's becoming a little, like, obsolete. You don't see that happening in the country community at all of like music? I think business-wise, I think office space would be, you know, could probably shrink down a little bit.

But creatively, no. I don't think so. I think we need each other, man. There's something, humans need humans, you know? And I think to create and feel that emotion, we're going to need that again. Yeah. That's fucking real. I know.

I tell you what fired me up is when he's like, we're all kind of quarantined. And if we don't make the best music in the next 30 years, like just the opportunistic way to look at it. Like when all, when shit hits the fan, I feel like you just learn a lot about who you are. When everyone's kind of stuck and you can either kind of complain about it or you're trying to find your pivots. Yeah. Like, okay, how am I going to adjust to this? And I don't know, I just feel like people in quarantine probably learned a lot about themselves. I think so, yeah, man.

I think I can't be the only one that has been, you know, toured to death and needed this. Right, right, right, right. Or was in some sort of cycle of, you know, whatever that road life is and kind of needed a reset. I know a couple buddies that are really glad it happened too. So, but yeah, I think I just look at it and go, man, you know what, why not come out of this? Yeah, the bank account's going quick. But why not come out of this with a couple songs that changed the trajectory of my career? Why not?

What the hell else am I going to do? Yeah, but you can get a little more ROI out of this thing, a little return on investment. You get 30 days or how, it's been way, it's been way long. It's been like three months. It's been like, it's been longer than three months. No, it's been about three months. You're right. About St. Paddy's Day weekend is when we, when it really says it's what we got a hill for us.

That's how I think about it. Yeah, same. Same. That's how I see it too. We were supposed to go to Cabo. And like three days before we were supposed to leave, an NBA player got it. And we were like, yeah, do we go to Cabo? Yeah.

Like, do we get on the Southwest fire or another? Fucking, dude, I was going to for my first time. Oh, dude, I would live in Mexico. I would absolutely would live. I would live in Cabo San Lucas for sure. That place is. You get a place. Airbnb is.

I'll tell you what, man. It's a lot of work. All right. A lot of bank accounts are getting hit right now. Okay. A lot of dance being passed away. The boys took a day. The boys took a day.

The boys took a dead. One of our first sponsors backed out, not first sponsors, but one of our bigger sponsors backed out on us. We're not going to talk about it. Yeah. That'd be bad. But it was a dance. It was a dance.

It hurt the boys a little bit. You think about retiring. Then you're like, yeah, yeah. When you were talking about like you needed this, I am so happy. Like, I know this sounds weird, but I'm super happy that quarantine happened when I was 28 and not when I was like 21. because I'd be super out of shape right now and I would drink myself to death by this time.

I was like right on the cusp of like, man, I really want to like change some things. Because for me, like when you're like, will knows is when you're super into like what you're doing, like for me, obviously it's football. Like I'm so like zoned in on that.

Like I'm always saying like, what can I do better? And for me it was like mentally, how do I mentally like help myself to not go up with, you know, the highs and lows with the lows? I kind of figure that out. And I was kind of like battling with that mentally

until this quarantine thing hit. And then it was like, okay, well, if I'm going to take care of something, like, now is the time to kind of start working on that process of like, who am I going to be when I come out of this? Because like there's like, there's not a lot of black and white in this world. There's a lot of gray. But right now with quarantine, all this shit going on, like, there's a black and white of like, who are you like, are you going to be better when you come out of here?

You're going to be worse because it's not going to be a lot of stagnant the same person you were. Yeah. It's tough. And so I've, I've had to work on myself like a lot mentally just like learning how to meditate, doing stuff, like learning how to shut myself down. Because I'm a very, I mean, I don't think it's very hard to figure out. Very high-energy guy.

Like, I'm fucking, I'm watching you guys work before we got started here. It was impressive. I was surprised you watch, man. My man just bought himself a new vehicle. I don't know if you want to tell the people. Is that first on the dead? Yeah, we tell everybody. Yeah, hell yeah, dude.

Well, it got stuck in California, actually. I have one on the way. And when they shut California down, it was going to, you know, like finishing touches. Yeah.

Nice. Willow. Willow? That's where I'm about a beer from. Willow. How far is that? It's, well, a half hours.

Yeah. Yeah. Dude, If you want to hear how manly I am, you get ready for this. So I'd never been fishing before my entire life until I met my wife. Or turkey hunting. Or turkey hunting. You know Fort Tomlin?

Yeah, yeah. Okay, he took me turkey hunting like the last weekend. This year? This year. Okay. Sat there. He was like getting after him. Ford's like, he's down there.

Guys, he's ear to the dirt, man. He's figuring that shit out. Didn't see a fucking thing. So I guess he didn't figure it out. But it's a blast. He had a nice little place out there about 45 minutes outside of Nashville. But, um, well, I lost my place. Fishing, fishing.

Fishing. Fishing. Fishing. I was fishing. So I haven't been, I've never been fishing my life. Grew up in Arizona. Don't know if you know anything about Arizona.

Not a lot of water out there, right? Kind of called the desert for a reason. So I never really dove into it. Been to Bartlett a couple times. And then my wife's from British Columbia, Canada. I don't know if you've been out there, but it's like,

water's like 50 foot deep. Like you can see it 50 foot deep, super clear, beautiful. And her and her mom are like sniping fish out of the water. And I don't even know how to tie a lure. They're teaching me like holding my hand. It's all in the head. It's like trying to show me.

I had to throw it and shit. I'm like, man, it's like, thought about it, like, a pop in the ego. I'm like, I'm at this six, seven, tattoos. Yeah. Man, can't even fish. But we started doing it. I love it.

It's a lot of fun. So Willow. It's fun, man. Willow Grove. Willow Grove. I'm headed out there, dude. When are you going back? Next weekend.

Okay. Are you there most weekends? Yeah. I'll see you in a bit then. I'll see you in a bit, bro. We'll see you in a bit. We're getting on. We're getting on.

We're a boat out there? Yeah. man, my man's added more value than any other intern we've ever had. There we go. My man has added some value up in this thing. I had a buddy, Deshaun Kaiser. He was in town this past weekend. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And we've been friends for years. And he, uh, he's a big country fan, right? And we just met on a kind of on a bus like this at faster horses. Really? Festival up in Michigan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, who is this giant dude? I had no idea.

And we just exchanged numbers and become friends over the years. But, um, I had a blast. because, you know, Duke can launch a football. Yeah. But I teach him how to, you know, he'd never really fish.

He's a earwool. And he's like, you know, suck it, dude. There, yeah. It was awesome. You got on a bobber,

dude, he's just sitting there, staring at. Hey, you got a bite yet, bud? Yeah. You're doing all right?

Hey, let me help you out. You go grab his rod. It was the best thing. I didn't, I didn't get him a hard time, but I was laughing. That's the worst, too.

Like, you're holding, you're holding the rod. And hey, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, my man, hey, that's a lot. There he goes. He's a sex pool of knowledge. Let's see what he's got.

Hey, but then somebody, whoever's with you, they want to take it from you. And they're like, hey, let me show you how. And you're kind of like, you're just feeling small. You're just taking it. And you're like, can you just show me? Yeah, yeah, teach a man to fish, man. Classic line. Classic line.

It kind of happened with me and Ford when we're out, turkey hunting. He's at a pond out there. And there was a couple. I kind of just sailed it into the grass. And I was like, that's my bad ham. Yeah. You're trying to reel it back real fast. Dude, fishing's fun.

It is. It's a great way to relax. You know, you can't, I don't know. Like, for me, golfing's not an option because I did it for every day for 20 years. Right. So I know a lot of guys that, that I, you know, do life with now that they love golf and that's kind of relaxing and camaraderie for me. It's like, man, I get pissed off from the golf course, right?

Because I'm trying to win. Absolutely. I'm not out there just trying to hit a ball. Like, I'm trying to beat whoever I'm playing. So I get mad. And if you tell somebody, if you tell somebody, if you tell somebody, I played college golf, they're like, oh, this dude's giving me good. Like, yeah, there's an expectation.

There's an expectation. Yeah, there is. I mean, I'm like, I'm better I am. But, you know, I'll play here and there. But fish and there's no agenda. There's no. Man, you go out there and just drink, drink a beer if you want, fish, play music. And if you catch one, sweet, you know.

Dude, we got to get on a lake. I feel like since I came to Nashville, became friends with Taylor. You're welcome. I haven't been, I haven't been on a golf course, drinking beers, smoking a cigar, listening to music. You had it? the boys. I haven't been on a golf course or on a lake and love doing both of those things since I kind of became friends with him. What have you been doing? He kind of monopolizes my time

if I'm not spending it with my gal. Y'all are working, man. Okay. Yeah, no, I'm a very high maintenance friend. If you get my number, expect some texts. Like, it's, there's going to be some things. I just haven't worked. That's what you mean about that? I'll tell you what, uh, when I get comfortable with people like Will, like Will is one of the, like, Will is my kind of people because he, He's so good at just getting shit on on a daily basis. Oh, my God. You got to stop. Every friend.

Every friend. Every, every, yeah, exactly. That's bullshit. I'm not a heavy bag, bro. Yeah. I'm just like throwing it into my boy Will. And he's just going to say that. You're doing great.

You're doing great. You're just loving it, dude. Something about Will, like, he just loves. And so, like, I love being around the guy, man. And, um, he, will and my wife are actually really good friends, too. So it's just good to have the boy around, man. It's super cool. And, uh, it's a thing.

But I'm one of those, I'm like, if, you know, I'll FaceTime you. I'm a big facetimer. I'll FaceTime you. If you press decline on my FaceTime, you best believe for the next three and a half minutes, you're going to get FaceTime after FaceTime until. Really?

Oh, no quesh. So don't care what your status is. It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter. Like literally, so Adam Bobo, Arate Nashville. Shout out. It's not a new. No free shoutouts.

No free shoutouts. Eratee, though. Great IVs. And he was doing like this, he was doing this Instagram live there. So everyone started doing once quarantine happened. Okay. And I went to call him and I facetimed him.

and he declined me. So I was like, my boy about to find out. Because he's doing an IG live. He's doing something for his business. So I start calling and calling and calling and calling and calling and he's declining and declining and declining. And he answers the phone, dude. And he just fucking rips into me.

Like, rips into me for like two, three minutes and then hangs up the phone. And like, I kind of just like went downstairs. And like, Tailon's like, what's wrong? My wife's name is Tailin. I'm like, what's wrong? I was like, I don't know. I just don't want to talk about it. He called me.

I did. You went on a drive. You went on a drive. I had to take a. I did do something for my daughter. She had to pick something up, but I took, I took the back roads. Like, you know what I'm saying? I was hurting, dude.

I was a country music song, all right? I was hurt. Oh, man. I was in my truck and I was affected negatively. All right? And I didn't know what to do, my guy, all right? I don't know. I'm looking left.

I'm seeing a bar. I'm looking right. I don't know. I'm looking at a cliff. I don't know where to go. Hey, I might not be coming home then. Yeah, I'll take the night off, sweetie. Yeah.

And so, yeah, he laid into me pretty hard, still really. haven't forgave him for that honestly have y'all made up at all no we're boys dude he's a boy man it's like it's like with taylor like you'll have you'll you'll you like do your daily routine of shit right and you kind have stuff mapped out that you're gonna do that day and you know usually majority of your friends like if something's going on you're like i can't make it or let's plan on something else yeah and then you set a different date for something taylor he'll call and there's like a little bit of anxiety that kind of comes in my body because i'm like i know he's going to want me to hang out and i'm going to have to say no, but a no to a different friend is just like, all right, let's play for something else.

But a no to him, like the other day, he's like, I'm just not even going to ask tonight because I'm tired of being let down. Like, it's like I tell him, he thinks that I'm like saying yes already ahead of time to when I do say no, it's like, I let him down. Yeah. I'm like, you, Taylor, I just like, I just can't right now or like I'm already doing this or something. I'm very manipulative. But you have, when you talked about like whatever you've been doing in quarantine.

growing growing now i do get out of the phone there's like these subtleties where he's like all right man we get off and i kind of hang up the phone and i almost don't know how to feel because nothing nothing was met with like oh we just kind of got out of the phone that time it's just like that's it yeah there's always a winner a law yeah or he'll confirm me the next he's like hey so i called you last night and i'm just thinking in my head like ah fuck and he's like you were probably watching Netflix and i was like yeah he's like i figured the boy was watching Netflix or something. I'm like, oh, that's it. Yeah.

I've grown a lot. Maybe some. Yeah, maybe some. You're kind of coming into this friendship right now on the, on the downhill, the down swing. Will's gone through the turbulence. Yeah. Like we're now, we're landing the plane. Everything's kind of going to know better. So when you tell us we're coming on the boat, if you happen to change course with me, it'll probably be all right. You know, you're going to have to navigate the water.

I'm going to be on that thing. Reserve. Kevin reserved. You're reserved. I mean, Josh. Jack. Jack. Man, Jack will be on that thing.

on our boat. I'll tell you what, do we got interns? Okay. We got what? Is that, I think Zach got them for everybody. There's one behind you too if you want it.

I'm sweating hard. Yeah, there you go. Dude, I tell you what? These are really good cameras and they're going to expose my sweat to this time. Yeah,

you're sweating. Everybody sweats. I'm leaking, dude. I told you I operated a different level, man. This is what a Ferrari looks like in a human body. This is just it, dude. But I mean, it's wet today.

It's not always hot. It's wet, dude. It is. It's a perfect late day. Yeah, it is. It's a perfect late day. Dude, I'm glad. This is happening.

I'm fired up. Hey, we're doing this. You know, this would not have happened had we been on a Zoom call. It wouldn't have happened. That's true.

Because you wouldn't have felt this camaraderie. You feel this energy in here? It's palpable. It's like you can cut it with a knife. I do fear of drinking around y'all, though. You don't have to worry too much. He don't really drink. I'll sip some wood for reserve.

I'll get hammered. I'll just do it. I think it's like y'all are intense people. I'll tell you what I'm intense people. I feel like it would just be... Well, it's more of a show, too. Fuddle shotgun, I don't know. Right now we're on camera.

We have to do this for an hour. And we just had to do that. Like, we're up there. This right here? Yeah. It's the empty stomach and caffeine. Because I'm actually... I would say I'm a little more chill.

Like, I kind of... My energy will rise being around the boy because he has high energy. Yeah. And we bring people along with me in the energy category. I love it. That's why I would be scared. Yeah. I'll tell you, well, we get drinking on a boat, dude.

That's going to be just fun time. Are you a cigar guy, too? Every now again, I'll have a couple. Love it. So I needed to know. Absolutely. I know. He's not.

So we haven't gotten to... It's got to be the right night. Yeah, exactly. It's got to be the right night. It's a weather thing for me. It's a weather thing? Yeah. Yeah.

For me, it's like, if you got a fire or a back deck or like sitting outside vibe and you got the boys or anybody sitting outside having a conversation, to me, that's just, you throw out a cigar. Hey, is anybody's a cigar? That's the right time. No, no. And then you're sitting a cigarette, smoking a cigar right? I'll be having one tomorrow. But I love secondhand cigar. smoke too so whatever

I'm a fan I feel like cigar smoke that's very much I wish charles was she's always like I'll go inside I'm like I wish you'd just hang out but I get it you don't like the cigar smoke

yeah I'll love it I tell you I don't know ever since I was a kid I guess grew up with a golf course there's always somebody smokes cigar so reminds you being a child yeah it's beautiful

we have a I mean this packers is flying by we should probably talk about your music a little bit whatever in this what's that we talk about we got to hit on some good stuff.

It's solid shit. You get nervous because you don't want to ask the same, like, questions that I feel like you weave as like Matt Ramsey or Chase Rice, Riley Green. And it's like I'm trying to figure out something that you said was like feeding 35 different families. Yeah, that threw me off. Yeah. What goes into, I guess, the business of Dustin Lynch?

And maybe that's not even the right word, but that's what I'm saying. You are your own LLC. Oh, man, he does got to sit here and worry about a bunch of other people instead of just Dustin Lynch's money, you're concerned when something like this happens about everybody else in your... Yeah, everybody else, man, because we've grown from a band of, well, I started in my, you know, forerunner pulling a trailer to frat parties. It's a great vehicle. It is a good, but we've grown from a small band of single dudes running the world to a big group now and everybody's got kids now. And so it's heavy, you know.

every single year you look at how much do we need to work to make everybody comfortable to provide for these families. There's a lot of overhead. There's a lot of people behind the scenes other than my band guys, everybody knows from being on stage.

I mean, there's more people behind the scenes in every touring capacity, I think, in every act, than there are on stage. So it's a lot of people that are counting on us to work and not working this year is, it's taxing, man. It's tough. We haven't had to let anybody

go yet, which I'm very proud of, you know, this far into it and looking like we can hang in there if we can get back to work. So, fingers crossed, we can. So if you, if you, I don't know how I don't run a business, but if you let somebody go and then things like, let's say tomorrow, everything starts back up. Yeah. Can't you just hire them back? Yeah, you can. Absolutely. You can. I want to leave, I guess. There's a furloughly, right? Yeah, for like, there's a loyalty thing there for me. You know, those guys and girls that, that I'm on the road with make me better than I am and make me look better than I am. And so there's,

there's a family thing there. And we found a really tight click. We have a weird band. There's a lot of, there's a lot of bands out there that are hired guns. I don't think most people can tell, but, you know, being on this side of the business, you can, I can tell when a band is hired and just playing the show or I can tell when a band's a band.

Really? Oh, that's, just chemistry, different nuances. Yeah, there's chemistry. We've been around each other now, five plus years, everybody, which is rare to keep guys around that long. And I guess on top of that, we've, like I said, we've gone from single idiots to now everybody's got families besides myself on stage. So, you know, I've gone through that part of life with them, too. And so we're really close in that way. And so I don't want to let anybody go. Right. I think if I have a choice, I'm not going to do it, you know,

and I have that choice and I'm not doing it so far. Why is that rare? Why is it rare that you have a together for five plus years. It's tough. You know, I mean, to know that, you know, we played 180-something shows a few years back, and that's gone down. And I don't know. I think personalities, you know, when you think about another profession, I guess sports seems would be the same where you're around somebody that close,

but we're literally living on a bus like this for that many days. I mean, on top of, on top of co-working, you got to get on a bus and live with them, too, man. Yeah. And that's rare. Usually, you think about relationships, you take five marriages or six marriages, and one of those marriages does not last in five years. Right.

Pretty much. Yeah. So you feel like you're on a bus all year. You feel like it's like being around somebody to like a band being around each other too much that happens? Or is it like a business thing? I don't know. It's just a personality thing.

I think we lucked out, man. I think it's a, I think it's a ying and yang of all our personalities. Everybody's kind of got their own character and weirdness. And we kind of all dig it, you know. Who are the boys? Shout them out. Because when I think it's, Dustin Lynch, I just think of Dustin Lynch.

So when you're talking about the band, I'm like, oh, yeah. Does your band have a name? Like, Dustin Lynch and the old fashions? No, we don't. We said the old fashions. The old fashions. We don't have an official name. Is it Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers?

Yeah. We call ourselves the old fashions. Dustin Lynch and the boys. The number three. And the boys. Yeah, but man, we've, we've been good. We started out with four core guys. We added a new guy, Chris, a couple years ago now.

You're a half ago. So he's. You can't shout out the new guy, Chris and I give the jeans. We got Chris LaCourt, Mitchell Curtis, Colin Healy, Billy Freeman, and Chris Hurst. I like Billy. Don't even know him, but I like Billy. So I have to think about their names because we all go by nicknames on the road. Right.

And Billy Freeman's nickname is Big Honky. Big honky. That's all the same. Big honky? Like, yo, if you're hanging out and you're just kind of telling somebody new, like, dude, you're going to love Big Honky. Yeah. I think I'm going to love them already.

He pulls up, yeah, there's Big Honky. Does he look like he sounds? Yes. He's thick. Yes. I'm thinking he wears hats like this, like a big guy trucker hat. He is. He's sweaty most of the time.

For sure he's a drummer. Of course he is. He's a drummer. Of course he's a drummer, dude. He's thick. He's a thick boy and he likes wearing overalls with no shirt. Is that right? He's rocking a John Deer hat right now on stage.

Oh my God. But before he got that, he had, we did a show every year in Mexico with Luke Brian. And he's got, everybody, where in Mexico? Plito, Carnie. And Camacu moved to Cancun this past year. Yeah, okay, cool.

Which is fun. But he's got a... The Gulf. He's, I think he's half, I think Mexican, Hispanic something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everybody thinks he's, um, uh, I'm blanking on it. Hawaiian, uh, Polynesian, Samoan. Everybody uses Samoan.

Um, so you're right on top of it. But, but yeah, anyways, back to the Mexico story, he would pick as he can grow a mean fro and he'd pick it out, man. Yeah. Yeah. It's just, you can't help but love the dude and party with them. I'll tell you what until yesterday had a little bit of lettuce going on. Cut it all off.

Man, I've got the longest lettuce I've ever had right now. Really? Let's see. Take that piece off. Oh, my God. It's not bad here either. I think it's solid. Look at that, right?

Look at that. That's disgusting. I know. You are sweating violently. You're showing her, you're like, look at that. Hey, look at it. Yo, what is, do you have any awesome band stories? Early days, early days.

Like, give us something that you would love to share with the bus. People might not know about. You know, awesome band story. We've gone through so many transitions. on, I mean, really every aspect of the music business, but social media was not a huge thing when we started. Yeah. So cat and around back in the day was a lot easier, right? I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like, now everybody can follow everything you're doing and know exactly where you're at. But back when we started, it was just, it was awesome. You could kind of just be a pirate and disappear and get away. Your DMs probably stay lit, huh? Of course. Yeah. Are those videos? No, no.

Those are real? Yeah, man. I pay for these. I got some giant in my teeth. No, don't do it. Don't do it. He was shown an old picture of my teeth.

They were pretty beat up. All right. After this pocket, we had to find my phone. Not, I mean, a couple of chips with football, but it's only because I like would wear a mouth. He's from Bonterre, Missouri.

Bontare, Missouri. Bontair, Missouri. So it's just, he's got teeth as if you would think someone from Bontair, Missouri would look like. Yeah, small town, small town. Shout up on Tare, Michelle. No, and some hockey guys now. pretty closely, man. That's some fun

That is by the boys for the boys. Back to the episode. Okay. So my house. Is this a game? It's a real game. So I went to University of Michigan. Shout out, University of Michigan.

And on State Street, it would be the main road that the campus is on. And I was right across the street from Yost Arena, which is where the hockey players play. And then there would be a little side street in the next house right next to me, hockey boys. Okay. And in the springtime, all right, flowers are blooming, people are happy, the snow has thawed. Everyone's just happy to get outside. People are dripping off that winter coat. Here we go.

You go and you go poop in a toilet. Then you take a butter knife, one you're willing to get rid of, poop, take some poop out, and you put it on a dollar bill. Then you go across the street in front of Yost Arena, and you put that poop dollar face down. And then you hide. And you drank beer, and you'd watch people of all ages, children. old people, everything in between, mostly college kids, walk by with their greedy little palms and pick up poopy dollars.

And it was the funniest. It was the funniest experience of my entire life. Then it evolved to poop being on the dollar and there'd be a fishing, like a hug to a fishing string, and then that would get pulled so that people are chasing poopy dollars only to pick up the poopy dollar. But the hockey boys... I haven't lived yet.

You have not. I've not lived yet. It's fun. We'll play. We'll play. We're going to do this. We'll make our interns. We can do it at the marina.

Yeah. Well, there it is. After we get off the lake, but hey, we'll film the whole thing. It'll be hilarious. The hockey players, they literally were the most just like disgusting human beings ever. We all drink Ham's beer. Love Ham's beer. 1295 for 30 rack.

It was the best. Luke warm, leave it outside for two hours. It's perfect. It's ready to go. It doesn't taste good, but I get what you're saying. Have you seen, have you had it? lukewarm beer lukewarm ham's beer

lukewarm ham's not had a ham's lukewarm but i've had plenty of lukewarm beers hams is like so behind the chains as far as beer goes they're still using pop tops almost yes it's that much like it's unbelievable the place me and my wife got married the reason why we chose it is says they served hams there and i had a rule that you could only serve ham's beer that you should have had one

there i had one i had one bad beer i didn't have one lukewarm yeah you never had it i just had it cold because that's how i like i had some sitting in the oven at our hotel room that's Oh, does. It sounds like he's got a better story than what I was going to say. Me and the Band-Eats have a beer. We drink Miller High Life if we're trying to get fired up. That's kind of like our. My best player just got married in February and only Miller High Life at the after party.

So you're sitting on the bus and somebody walks on with a case of Miller High Life. You just know it tonight's going to be the night. Game on. I love that game on. You got a little something that triggers you that you know, like it's going to be one of those nights. Yeah. That's it. Awesome.

If I saw poop on a dollar bill, I knew it was going to be one of those days. You know what I'm saying? is just one of those things. You can laugh at that if you want. I'm sorry. I started to think about, I started to think about something like as that was going on

because now I'm thinking like, yo, what is a, like I want to, I want a show story. Like maybe one of the hardest things is a hard of shows. He's very high maintenance,

but you need to give what he wants. I am high maintenance. Like, so I was just thinking to my head, you know, I wonder like what's been the hardest kind of show to get up for that you're just like fuck,

boys like we got to get up for this somehow. Like just some fucking story. Like a hangover story? I don't know. Like maybe on the book? plus, like, I'm not up to go out there on stage. Like, the boys got a rally to go on stage. There's a few.

I need a picture painting. Like, the way Taylor painted the poop dollar picture, I feel like we can animate that and make something out of it. Now I want to hear something to where I have some version of around the head. I wish I could remember towns better. We're up, we're up. Golly, I'm trying to remember what town this is in. It was somewhere up north.

It might have been Michigan as well. I'll tell you what. Michigan has made a big noticing presence in this podcast. It was Michigan or Pennsylvania. And the band is, would know this. God bless his soul. He's no longer in the band,

but the way this night starts is, is we were a little banged up from the night before. As you should see. This is back in the day. Back in the day. This is back in the day when touring was new, right? And when touring's new, you go from having to buy beer or Woodford or whatever to now it's part of the

backstage writer, right? So you can go in, what do y'all want? And it's literally anything you can dream up. I mean, anything, food, drink, whatever. Really? Let's go. As broke dudes hitting the road for the first.

year two. It's like, oh, I know. You had that feeling? We can, we can get what? Yeah. And so, we partied a lot back in the day. And we were a little banged up. So, because we were banged up, this, this particular day, I think Michigan, we started drinking a little early to get hype, right? You got to get over the edge, hair of the dog type thing. Well, this was, do you all have casinos in Michigan? This could, this could end it right here. I think, okay. There's casinos across the pond in Windsor, Canada. Okay, so it had, it wasn't Michigan then. But it might have been.

But it might have been. It might have been. It's got. No more Michigan. Sorry, Michigan. You lost for y'all. Anyways, so we're in one pretty good by the time the show starts, which is rare. It's rare.

It's rare. I hate. Take that back. There are casinos in Michigan. There are casinos in Detroit. Too late. Too late. You're not in Michigan.

Okay. We're not in Michigan anymore. Wait, what's rare? Being up for a show? Being any sort of way, hard buzz before hitting the stage. Oh, like, oh, we're feeling it. Every country arts did it in the 80s for some reason. I feel like everybody got wrecked.

Before the show probably. I think now with social media and everything on YouTube, you want to show up and do your best. I mean, for the fans, too. I mean, we'll have, you know, a drink or two before we at the stage, but not like been raging. But this is noon. Right. So anyways, we've been raging since noon. Everybody's feeling good.

Well, my old keyboard player. He dipped his toes a little deeper. And he dipped his toes a little deeper. Oh, this is great. He did just stay a little deeper. And about midway through the set, I look back, and he's on a piano, he's sitting down on piano, and he's on my right. He's leaned back playing piano like this and nailing it. Like Peter Griffin on Family Guy, Dron, just playing the piano.

And so I'm like, oh, Jesus, you know, we can make it, though. He's that good. He's that good. He's that good. We're going to make it through. He's not in the band anymore? He's not, but I'll get there. So he hits that moment.

So I'm like, I had this break so the band guys can go take a leak. You know, mid-show, just me and guitar, right? Right. They go take a leak. Well, apparently they grab him off stage. They're trying to pep him up, you know. Come on, dude, we got this. Instead of coming back to the stage, we kick off.

And the dude is at the bar ordering drinks. At the bar, you can see him. He's right there. Did you imagine you just noticing? He's ordered shots. So I'm like, I'm looking around. We're looking like, what the fuck? You know, like, all right, here we go.

I'm going to have to have that talk after the show. But at the same time, at the same time, we're, we've been drinking, so we're laughing our asses off. Yeah, this is awesome. It's like, what a rager. So he comes back, gets back on. By the time I get off stage, he's passed out face down in the front line of the bus. Right? He's on the bus, though.

But he's on the bus before you guys get there. Literally walked in the door, passed out like. Right there. Just step over him. The man's had a hard night. So we're like, well, we're feeling good. We got some girls. They want to go at the bar.

We leave in there. Come back, and it looked like there had been 32 kids having a food fight on the bus. He apparently got in the pantries, fridge, whatever. Anyways, that's one of the great stories I can tell legally. I love that. But the redeeming end of the story is we had to let them go a short time afterwards, but we were pretty buzzed one night, and we were on tour with Luke Bryan, and we were getting to play all these awesome football stadiums.

And so we were feeling good one night, and I'm like, I had this broadad. I was like, dude, his nickname's Hard. What if Hard makes a cameo at, uh, forgive me for not, whatever the Patriots field name is, Gillette. Gillette Stadium, yep. What if Hard makes a cameo for Gillette? What if we just cold call him up and hire them for the one nine only at Gillette Stadium? And we did and he showed up.

No fucking away. Oh, that's awesome. And ripped at us for two nights. That's so epic. Um, that's awesome. But that's, that's a good one. I don't know. There's a couple more good ones, but I'll probably get some people in trouble if I'll tell them.

Hey, that was good. Yeah, yeah. we don't want to get nobody in trouble. Last thing we want is like, hey, could you take this part out of? Oh, man, that was a good story. Yeah, no doubt. No, I like the cameo part. It's like the fact that he gets to make a cameo in Gillette's.

Are those your favorite places to play? Yeah, man, it's tough to beat, like, it's tough to beat football stadiums. But I would say my favorite is Wrigley Field. I was a T-ball or I was a little league club. So to be, you know, to grow up a cub, playing ball, and then get to go, actually go play on the field, play music. You grew up playing Little League, you were a Cub the entire time? No, so I guess it would have been, what are they? After coach pitch, what is it?

Little League. Little League. Yeah, yeah, minor's majors Little League. Yeah, that's how it was in Arizona. Yeah. Whatever coach pitch was. I was a Rocky for Coach pitch and then I went to the Cubs. Yeah.

Dude, when you're young, yeah. When you're young getting to be like the pro teams on your jersey. The only thing on the back was like sponsored by T.J. Plumbing. Sponsored by T.J. plumbing. But you got the Corley. The landing strip, gentlemen's club. You're like, all right. And whatever team you're on, like, that's just your favorite team probably from that moment on.

Like, yeah, I'm a cup for life. You know, it's a buzz that kicked around like sponsoring a little league team. You should. Why not? Dude, I take one. The bus will go in on you with that. I mean, incredible. Just have incredible.

We should get a bunch of guys. Smoke lasers, whatever, when they come out. And do the whole, we should all go sponsor a whole little league like you do it. The bus will do it. We'll get a couple other guys. So awesome. sponsor little league teams. And then we'll gamble on them.

Oh. Yeah. Yeah. Even better. We said, we're all there. Just like, hey, what do you got here? You're ready to start recruiting. Bringing some 24-year-old from Brazil.

They're like, hey, man, just throw some heat down that. Has the silence as I am 12. He starts throwing in your, hey, it's coach pitch, dude. Get him off the mound. I have a deep love for Dairy Queen because that was our victory mill. Yeah. Back in Lively guys. Every time.

I'll tell you what, that one, if you're one looking good, I'll tell you that. Yeah. That's looking a little thick. If you won, you get to go to Dairy Queen. man, I still have a deep love for DQ. And just playing hard as shit on the playground. Dude, the town I'm from Cape Creek, South, shout out Cape Creek.

5,200 people. And they're like, it's all mom and pop shops. Yeah. And the only franchise they've allowed in there, is fucking DQ. And it was like in the 80s. Apparently, people just got in that thing. Beat soft serve ice cream.

You can't beat it, dude. You can't beat a Blizzard. You can't beat the ice cream cake. Dairy Queen. Sponsor us, sponsor us. Spots her me. Spots her boss.

You have a box. Get it. I just had, so my birthday was last month. I just had a dairy queen ice cream cake for my birthday. Oh, killer. Let's go. And that's it. I'm having to go.

I haven't run out of it. What did you, how old did you turn? 35. Damn old, dude. Yeah. You're up there now. But I'm in better safe than 34.

You look good. 20s or 30s? What's better? 30s. You like that better? For me, I guess it depends already on your career. For me and my career. You're 30 and quarantine happened.

Like COVID has happened. Yeah. It's been a bad. at start, but... Now where to come up. I'd take no question. Did you start a Ground Zero? Yeah.

Yeah, for sure. I think for me, like 30 is because of where my career has gone from 30 to now. Just the comfortability of figuring out how to do it. You know, it takes years to figure. Like, no one grows up knowing how to do it. I luckily had, I feel like I dropped too many names, but I'm telling the story. So I'm going to. My first tour I was on was Keith Urban.

Boom. And I hate that I didn't get to see him. in his party days because I heard he was awesome. Yeah. But I'm glad I had a dude, my first guy I was out with that wasn't in the party and all that stuff. More in a mentor. Yeah, it's just, it's so not real life going town to town with, you know, 20, 30,000 people. It was nice to have a guy that was regimented.

I mean, up every day, working out, eating clean. It was like, okay, this is how the pro does it. Yeah. Versus, you know, if I was out there with, you name one of my puds. Yeah, yeah. Somebody young with you. It would have been a tough ride, you know. I don't think I'd have had that teammate to look up to, you know, I guess in y'all's worlds.

No question, dude. That's awesome. You talked about, you talked about Dairy Queen. You were you sponsored by Dairy Queen. If you could be sponsored by like one thing, what would you be sponsored by? Yeah. That's a good question. And I've got some questions.

This is tough because I've got some great sponsors. Oh, yeah. What I said. Hey, we did you. We do. We've sponsored. We've talked about. We've talked about them before the podcast.

It's fine. You guys got your, you got your shout out. What? What do you? I don't know how to answer. We're saying, we do like,

y'all sponsored you. We do our sponsors. But we don't care. Like, we'll say, you know, somebody else. So we're trying to get you into this.

I don't know. That's tough. Dream sponsorship. I'll tell you. It's a tough one. That is tough. It looks over here like, hey,

you better not be saying some shit now, all right? No, I mean, there's no wrong answer. I think, uh, because if you say

dream sponsorship, they don't have to come with something more than money, right? It's like, there's got to be benefits of... So one of, okay, so I'll just, I'll ease us into this. One of my dream sponsors would be vans. Like, I've been wearing vans since I was seven years old. Yes, dude. I actually went to vans when I first got drafted and I was like, man, maybe I'll get like a van

sponsorship. Maybe they'll make a cleat for me or something like that. That'd be sick. I think I got one, I can't picture of vans. I think I got like one courtesy email back saying, no, we don't do that. Sorry. That was it, dude. I'm going to say this because this probably would be my answer if it wasn't already, but John Deere is a partner of mine.

He sponsored to you? Yeah, man. Damn, that's crazy. That's a dope sponsor. It's just, it's such a timeless brand. I remember one of my dad's friends that had a farm would always wear a John Deer hat. He always had it sitting in the mud room when I'd walk in. I was like, I thought he was the coolest dude ever because he farmed and had a John Deer hat.

Now, I don't know. It's just been in my blood forever. But to be, you know, to be working with those guys now is really cool. That's pretty sick. And to get free tractors is awesome. Yeah, that's badass. So you've got a. farm, you're a farmer.

Well, I mean, I'm a hunter. I farm. You're a farmer then, huh? I farm for deer in Turkey. Guys just out there playing a show and then getting corn ready or whatever. I've got soybeans growing up. Literally, I came from the farm. I took a shower quick and came here.

I've been working all morning on it. But I love it. There's something, I think my world is so abstract. You know, there's no win or lose in my world. It's make something. And most of the time, it sucks. As a songwriter, it does. I mean, it's just the way it goes.

you look out and have a good one every now and again. And that's what we put out to radio. But having a farm is a way to come off the road. And like this morning, I had some fields that need to be cut. And that doesn't look good. And I cut it as good. It's like there's some sort of. Like progress.

You get to see the progress. Yeah. There's some sort of concrete gratification that happens. That's what's been so important for me about figuring out what do I need in my life outside of what I love doing, which is music. What mentally helps me out? And it's being on the water with Jack and... Slash Josh.

And having a farm and just being outside working. Yeah. You know, I weeded it for like an hour and a half this morning. Sounds fun. It's great. But it took me back because I cut grass to make rent before I had a record deal in town. And I also tested sewage right at the street here, literally right up there. Damn.

Which was... Poop dollar. Wait a second. You got to do that. You got under a poop dollar. I legit tested sewage for a living. That's disgusting. It was gross.

You were making music until you became until I got a record deal. Yeah, I was I was testing poop from all over the state and all over the South. What's the point of testing poop? Mercury levels or what's it deal? Yeah, bad stuff. So you can test. I was testing for volatile compounds. I'm a scientist, by the way.

Okay. Congratulations. Cestful. Yes. Cesspool. No, I don't know if I got. I've got useless knowledge. But so that's, I say that because that's how ended up in that job.

You don't give up For the science degree If you're not a doctor You're testing poop That's just that I mean Environment a lot It's that much of a white or black thing

If you're not If you're not a doctor You're testing shit That's just how you're a park ranger And he said He said like his hands up too Great It's like 15 scientists

Going hey yeah That's what happened This is this podcast But yeah But yeah There's jobs out there There's jobs out there for testing Poup for 11 y'all

That's fucking crazy I'll tell you what man $20 an hour Really? some good shit I mean you're young It's you know decent I'll tell you on dude

Enjoy the rest of the episode. Is it like a behind the back? So, okay, let's, let's, let's, we got to get his guard down a little bit. So, so for me, Taylor, I didn't realize this was an option. This is a real thing. There is. Like, we'll be in the locker room and guys will kind of low-key start arguing. It's like, hey, guys, listen, like, I'm still going to wipe the way I'm going to wipe. I'll tell you what.

Delaney Walker wipe the same way as me. He gets mad about it. He does get mad about it. But Taylor talked about wiping where he grabs his hip everything and just, like, he's sitting there and then goes down this way. And I'm looking at like, what the fuck? Me, I'm a stander. Like, I got a stand up.

I'm a stander. See, my thing is if you're sitting down, right, things are kind of spread apart a little bit. Then you stand up. He's probably stands and arches, though. He's looking back at it. Yes. You look at it. Every now and then.

I stand. Pause. I'll stand. And, you know, I apologize. I know we got a lady in here. But I like stand and say, say, I'm sitting in the toilet paper right here. I get it. I take the toilet paper off the little rail thing.

And I kind of set it where it's eye level because I'm standing now. Right. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Take it off, tear it. And then I turn and I just, I just start, like, wiping from top to bottom. Right. Throw it in, grab it, repeat.

Then when I feel like, then when I feel like it's less. Why are we? Because I'm looking at you. Sorry. I'll look at, you want to look at Dustin? Make it awkward. Tell hell yeah. Just look at Dustin.

Then I will, uh, let me get this up here. Then I will stand. And obviously, when it gets light, like you're done going from top to bottom. bottom, but you got a sandpaper effect it. You know what I'm saying? Like, you're not done just going down, like just going one way. Then when I feel like it's light, throw it in, it's like, okay, phase two. It's time in fourth quarter. Wow.
