Bussin' With The Boys - Jelly Roll Digs DEEP on Depression, NFL Recap, Halloween Talk

Episode Date: October 27, 2021

Recorded: October 25, 2021 | With Halloween right around the corner Comp decided it was time to make a call and bring in a guest co-host. Who better to call than Mr. Halloween himself, Jelly Roll. Both of the boys were giddy to get into the Spooktober talk, but there were some other things that needed to be covered first. Jelly had a rough past couple of weeks and the bus is a place where you can let it all out. Comp and Jelly talk through the details of Jelly Roll's depression and where it stems from. We learn about how Jelly's mom's battle with depression ultimately led him to making music. Then Jelly explains what rock bottom looked like for him and how those moments shaped his music, and the way he lives his life. After almost an awesome hour of vulnerability, and shared advice/stories the boys are ready to turn the energy back up. Comp dives into the what it's like for the Raiders right now and the type of buy in head coach Rich Bissacia is able to get from his players. Next, Comp gives his praises to Tom Brady who, at 47, is having the best year of his career. Unfortunately he finds out that Brady isn't 47. Naturally we transition into Spooktober. Jelly tells stories about candy (and dr*gs) that he and his crew enjoy on the road. We sadly learn this is the first year that Jelly Roll won't be participating in Halloween festivities because his daughter is officially too old for it, so he decided to book a sold out show in a Tennessee cave. Finally the boys debate who the top 5 scariest villains/halloween move characters, best halloween candy, and what happens to the old man in Squid Games. This is arguably the most versatile pod of all time so prepare yourself to laugh, cry, learn, and most importantly be spooked. EARN YOUR WOLF: Want to be featured on our Instagram Story?

Jelly Lois. Yeah, Jelly Lowan. Yeah. You got to clap, JP. Yeah, yeah. I didn't hear you yelling. Yeah. Um, the fligatory.

Yay. Hey, before we get in the episode, you know what the deal is. Yeah. You know who our big time sponsor is. Oh, dude. Listen, man. that Chevrolet. That boy's built like a Chevy.

Oh man, I'm telling you. The Silverado is strong, advanced, dependable, and hardworking. It's football season. We're in full spooktober swing, and it's time to up your tailgating game with the multi-flex tailgate on the Chevy Silverado. Six convenient configurations will give you a step up on your tailgate game. There's a primary tailgate which opens up with a push of a button on the key fob or from the inside of your truck.

The inner gate folds down to a large step for easily getting in and out of the bed. I know jelly, a man of your size. You need the tailgate where it steps down. It takes a couple steps. Yeah, to get up in that tailgate. It makes me want a tailgate. The inner gate folds down, allowing you to reach farther in the bed. It can also become a desk or a surface for your tailgating meal.

The Chevy Silverado is modern and advanced with a ton of grit, a partner in getting things done. It is a strong and dependable as the people who drive them. You, the tier ones, the wolves. I almost curse right there. not going to. The strongest most advanced of Rado ever go to a Chevy dealership near you. The boys, we choose Freeland Chevrolet.

We go, it's a local spot. You go down south a little bit. They take care of all your needs. They take care of the boys. Let them know that the boys sent you. Their service or sales, new or used,

they've got it all. Head into your local dealer and tell them the boy sent you. You might get a free tailgate. You might get a free trailer hitch. You might get a new free Chevrolet. You might get one of those bogo deals. Buy one, get one free.

Depending on the day. I've heard they're giving a, away silver rattles with the purchase of one. Don't quote me. That's just what I'm hearing. Jelly, how are you, bro? Dude, I'm awesome, man. I'm actually really,

I'm better this week than I was last week, and that's the goal, right? Yeah, I'm glad you made it. I was getting worried. You texted, you were ready to come on the episode. I texted you late last night. Hey, you want to come on busting with the boys? You're like, yes, sir.

I texted this morning or probably 8.30 in the morning. Don't get a response. I'm like, hey, it's 1 o'clock good. Don't hear nothing from them. I get done with my workout. I'm sitting there looking at my phone. on. I'm like, oh, Joe, they hadn't texted back yet. I'm like, I bet you this man's still sleeping.

I shot up the eye emojis. I'm like, hey, wake your ass up. And you're like, oh, perfect time. My alarm just went off. I had my alarm set for like 1140. And you woke up. I woke straight up. I had to jump on his call at 12 and I shot straight over. You know, the best part was, I didn't even need GPS, son. That's how local I am. I was just like, you were like, you need to get here.

I was like, no, it's the same spot, right? And just literally. Yeah. You are, you are like, you are Nashville. Listen, man, you could blindfold me, Bubba, and drop me off in any cul-de-sac in Nashville and just let me walk to the closest cross street and I can tell you exactly where I'm at.

I think that's what we have to do. Yeah, we should do it. We should make it under the hood. We should make it under the hood. At dark. It has to be in Davidson County, though. That's the catch. Don't trick me.

Yeah. At nighttime, dump them out with a van, like, push, like roll them out of the fucking back. What? Hey, take the mic, take the mic, Jack. Excuse my voice, but we... What's wrong with your voice? You've been doing cocaine, young man?

Jack's like, damn what my dad's listening right now? Tennessee game, Titans Monday night game, balls losing the Bama, and then yesterday. It's just been a long week. He's a very emotional fan. But you, uh, it's a game, you get 10 minutes. You started a low... We, like, started our high school, and it's, like, split up half and half.

If you're on the team, it's blindfolded. you get in the car and you get 10 minutes drive as far away from that point as possible. Then you get dropped off. So you get dropped off and then you're not blindfolded and you got to figure out how to get back home. So it's the exact same concept. But it's a good time. Oh, yeah. I know that me and Garrett, we're right with jelly.

We could get dropped off in any spot in town. And I'm getting the fuck home. We find it. For sure. Easy. I'm saying? For sure. We're getting home.

When you were mentioning earlier that this week's better than the last, are you talking about the depression? Yeah, I had a, you know, I just had a rough way. You know what's funny, man? I posted that tweet and I just said depression is real. And first of all, Pops, Taylor, first person to text me, which I thought was sweet. Because I was going to text him the week before to make sure he was okay after that injury. But I was like, man, I bet his phone is fucking going nuts right now.

But I just thought that was cool. I didn't see the text until quite a few days later just because I was just not fucking with my phone. But it's like I told my wife the amount of times I have the courage to post something about depression versus the amount of times I'm depressed. is crazy off, right? Like, I am way more depressed at times and I have the courage to just be like, you know what? I haven't posted on social media in like two weeks.

I think I should just at least be like, just don't feel like posting y'all. You know what I mean? And plus I try to do that because I hate that, like, social media is like this capture of the coolest moments of our lives, but never the bullshit. You know what I mean?

So it was just, yeah, but I feel good this week. I felt a little better, man. I kind of came around this weekend and kind of focused on some stuff. And you might not know it by looking at me. But I'm down like 25 pounds from the last time I was on the bus. Really?

Let's fucking go, dude. I have been focusing on that. I have been, even though I'm sitting here a little hungover, drinking Revital light, I've been drinking less and smoking more. And that's been helping me. It keeps the munchies down at nighttime, though?

You know what's crazy, man? I'm like, I'm one of them old school potheads that don't want to eat when I'm high because, like, I'm not fucking this buzz up. I paid all this money for this fire-ass weed. and I'm going to go fucking eat a honey bun and fuck this buzz up. You're crazy, dude. Fuck you, man.

I'm going to stay high. I don't eat. I'm more likely to eat on cocaine than I am on fucking weed because that cocaine has sometimes you're like, I always just will slow down. Yeah. We eat how you're like, I think I want to get a little higher. I don't want nothing to get in the way of that buzz. It's the reason I don't smoke blunts.

When you did partake in the beautiful fruits of pot, was you a blunt guy? No, I didn't. Like, for me, it started with like an edible. Yeah. Because the first time I did, I was with, like, it was a, it was DeAngel Hall and it was on my birthday. It was on my 27th birthday is the first time I ever partook in the, in the weed category. I was always one of those kids growing up, too, where you were just like against it. And you kind of like judge your buddies who did it.

Real fucking hardo back in the day. What's up? What an athlete. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Like the whole team leader captain stuff. Like I was just like, I was the dude. It was like, it'd be like me and Rex Burk. and we'd like write her numbers down on the, like on the projector to be like,

hey, if anybody needs a ride home or anybody's doing that. But yeah, the first time I did, it was like 27 or 27. And I've never really like, when somebody talks about like blunts and this and that, I never really know like the difference. Yeah, well, it's like for me, it's the same concept of eating after I smoke is like this beautiful herb that just tastes so incredible and just changes everything about. about how I feel. And then I put it in this nasty tobacco leaf that just fucks it up.

You know, I have no clue. Judgmental towards people that, like, if you're smoking a blunt, just look me and I go, it's not good weed, man.

The weed sucks. You know what I'm just trying to cover it up. A blunt is, a weed wrapped in a tobacco leaf. Yeah, for sure. Okay. I feel like I'm giving an educational course.

I'm like, welcome you all to this week's episode of dare. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah, dude, My first time. The best part is he's like, I didn't really do that until I was 27. Fast forward 10 years later.

And me and Will Compton are walking out of Zany's puking drunk together. Dude, my first experience wasn't like my favorite because, again, it was on my birthday. DeAngel. Was it weed? We talked about it once before, but I can remember was it weed or was it an edible? It was a joint. The first time was a joint. And then people were trying to talk like, oh, an edible will be better for you.

Like, it's more of a body high than it is a head high. What a lie. What a trick. Listen, boy, somebody was walking you right off the cliff, buddy. That's what we, somebody was just here, come here, boy. You know me, I'm gullible. Gullable. Gullable. Like, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.

Oh, dude, it's the worst, man. You ever took, like, like, too many edibles? No. There's a moment where it goes from, like, it gets like psychotropic. Psychotropic is that the words? I'm not like a, like the language. Sounds like when you make up, or whatever they call them a linguist or whatever, but.

Yeah, linguinists. Isn't that got something to do with sushi? Like pasta. Yeah, yeah, right? Right. Okay, yeah. That's the opposite of it. What is that sushi?

Fuck, you think I'd at least know about food? You know what I'm saying? But yeah, it's like fucking, it turns into like, listen, like 500 milligrams for me, I might as well trip acid. Hey, hey, hey, hey. You know what I'm saying? Like, that's how it feels. Hey, 500 milligrams?

I took 500 milligrams one time and fucking thought I was dying. I could hear my organs moving. You know what I'm saying? And I've been pretty bad to those organs. So they didn't sound. sound great neither, man. It was stressful. Dog.

I'm just thinking, 500 milligrams? True story. We were on tour and we all did it on the bus and it was one of the worst experiences of my life that I would do again. Did you guys make it off the bus at any point?

Well, listen, man. Or were you guys like stuck on the bus? No, the worst part was, we did it on like a 12-hour drive. It was like from Denver to like Idaho Falls or something.

And we were like, it would be a great day to all, take a 500 million. Graham Brownie or something, like the whole bus. Oh, so it was homemade. Oh, no, no, no. We bought them from the Denver dispenser. Okay, okay. And since we're law-abiding citizens, we figure we would eat it before we left the state. Very good of you. That's very good of you. High character.

That's a high character move. Yeah, yeah, that's how I felt. I feel like young Will would have been proud of that. I feel like 25-year-old Will would have approved. Oh, at least you did it before you crossed the border. Oh, that's funny. Before we get too far away, I love a podcast with you, man. I do, I do want to ask. ask, before we get far away from all the depression talk, when you're having a downtime or a down week or a down couple weeks, are you, and you're like, I'm having a better week this week, are you identifying what's going on, like why the downroll stuff happens? Downward stuff happens. I'm starting to take more time to do an assessment of what triggers it. The weird thing about depression is, and some people out there will know this, is that you never really, I wish it was clear cut as like, I got a bad phone call.

or like I had a bad thought. You know what I mean? And I think sometimes there's an underlying thing. Mm-hmm. You know, like it was my dad's birthday last week. So that's like, you know, it's like, for 34 years, I called this dude, you know, every, every year. Same day, same time. Met him at the same bar.

You know what I mean? Like, it was our thing, you know, but it was like, uh, but I think sometimes you just don't really know what triggers it and what I've learned, what I'm learning about myself is. And the more I understand it is, one, I'm more open to talking about it. because it's almost like just kind of relieving, even to sit my wife down, I don't sit her down and talk about it. And last week I got Saturday down,

I was like, I just feel like shit. I don't feel like doing nothing, you know? I don't feel like leaving out, like, like answering, like doing anything feels like a chore. Like anything, like getting up to go get food was like, fuck, man, I don't want to really walk to the front door and get that sandwich I ordered. You know what I mean?

Like, you're just like, fucking, you know. The phone doesn't matter. But what I've learned about me is, a lot of my stuff is rooted in, I think like, I don't know, like, I'm really thinking about it right now.

It's like, I think a lot of my problems come back to my personal stuff is stuff that I either just never dealt with or that I don't deal with. I hide behind entertainment, right, like humor, right then we start talking about depression.

I was talking about pot brownies instead. Way cool. Yeah, right, right, right. You know, it's like I immediately, go into like, or even then, as much as it's helped me writing music with my depression, I think sometimes it's also enabled me from dealing with it because I'll be like, oh, man, I feel really like, shit, let's go write a song.

And it helps because it's that instant gratification of getting that immediate feeling out. But then it's like you never really sat down and, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Looked inside of yourself as deeply. You know what I mean? It was like almost like you're rushing to get it out. like let's just go write it right now you know what I mean but it's not like actually sitting down and looking inside of yourself and like doing a real evaluation and I know this sounds corny

and I used to get mad when motherfucker said this will but they were like just when you're depressed just go outside and walk and I'd be like fuck you man and I actually went outside and walked this week and I felt incrementally better like literally was like you know what this is it's all right you know what I mean like it's gonna be okay like I'm you know I busted a little sweat, got my heart rate up, got inside of my own thoughts. I also thought about this. How much time do you spend...

Sorry, I'm burping up tequila. Had a fucking night. This is a kid show. Fucking... Oh, goodness. I just hope I don't have to shit during this podcast, man. It's bubbling. If it gets too hot in here, it's happening for sure.

How many times do you get to opportunity and how much has meditation helped in your career, if at all? meditation any form like anytime just like will by will self um the first question is how often do do it so i will pretty much i would say i won't say every day just to sound like again not to sound like a hard o but i'll say probably at least four times a week i'm doing like breathing exercises and that's a form even though sometimes i look at a clock and i'm trying to like sometimes there's breath holds and things like that i'm always listening to like you know whether it be simon Not always, but a lot of the time I'll be listening to people like TED talkers in my truck,

or I just won't listen to anything at all because I just want to sit there and like think about everything going on. Like if I'm mad about something, I'll know when I'm getting worked up because I'm having the conversations out loud in my truck when I'm driving by myself. I'll start yelling. I'll start like having the, you know, so whatever somebody's excuse was, I'm like answering what I should have said at that point. Instead of being like, you know, instead of what I was being like, I'm getting.

out what I was thinking behind all of it. Right. And then I just try and sit there and think about like, why is it bothering me? Right. But I'll say how much it helps. Like, I feel like sitting with yourself helps insane. It's new to me. It's a new concept to me. And I've been trying to talk to guys like you and hearing your thoughts on it means the world to me because it's something, you talk about TED Talkers. I've got into that, I'm going to fuck his name up because I'm fucking hung over and I've been fucking up every name today. I called sushi fucking Alfredo pasta at the root of not saying the right word. And I was trying to say something about the English language through all that.

But Dan Dondapani, Don Dondapani. He never actually says his name. He's never like, hello, it's Don DePenny. But it's something like that. Is anybody familiar with this guy? He's a monk? It's D-A-N-D-A-P-A-N-I or something. I don't think so. So it was like, it's like kind of like this monk lifestyle. Because I used to listen to Jay Shetty a lot,

which is another guy that comes from monkism. or if he would call it monkeism I'm not sure. Make you words up to day, y'all. I love how innocent he was saying that too, Monkish. I was like, it just sounds right.

If Marxism is a thing, then why wouldn't monkism be a thing? But it was like he was real big on like sitting with your sitting with yourself, like sitting with your thoughts. And like, because normally I like to,

like even when I talk on the phone, I'm a pacer. I get up like, if it's a serious conversation, I want to get in the truck and ride and talk. I'm the duty. You'll just see, you know, walking very...

I can never have a conversation when somebody's buying me or nothing like that. You'll see you got to take a lapse. Yeah, exactly. I got a saunter up and down the driveway by myself. You know what I'm saying? I'm sure you're just a little more hasty. But you know what I'm like? Yeah.

Like a little light saunter. But it's like, it's just, you know, it's like... And it made me realize that sometimes I get so caught up in dealing with my emotions in so many different ways that I never actually take the time to think about how I'm dealing with them. Because I'm still old school. I'll get in the truck and roll up a joint and, like, put on James Taylor and just ride a back road and just clear my head. But I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking and I'm smoking, but I'm listening to James.

I'm doing so many other things that I'm not fully thinking. You're kind of escaping. Yeah, I'm kind of escaping. I'm sorting through it and I'm getting my shit together, but I'm not, like, actually sitting in a steel, quiet room going, how the fuck do you feel about that? Why did you have that reaction? Why did you slap that guy on Second Avenue when he called you? fat the other night. What was, what was the trigger behind that besides alcohol? You know what I mean? So it's like, I'm trying to learn to do that through my depression. I'm trying to find the time

to actually go get in my thoughts. You know what I mean? Yeah. And it's Don, that's him. That's my guy. That's my dude right there. That's my Ted Talker. You got to check them out, man. No, yeah, that would be awesome. People that I've been on recently is, like I said, Simon Seneca, but like we've talked about him recently too is Neval Ravocont. He's got Simon Sinek start with a why. Is that the name of the book? Yeah, that's the book. Incredible book. That leaders eat less in the infinite game.

Because a lot of times we're like, you know, the way he explains it is like there's a lot of people in the infinite game trying to play these finite games. So in a finite game like football or baseball or any sport, there's rules that are agreed upon. There's players that are agreed upon. Like, you know when the game starts, you know when the game ends, all of that. So you always know when that game's over with, you're able to see it for what it was. And there's a lot of times, like in business and in life, like people see it as a game like they have to win. And he's like there is no winning a business. there's no winning at life like it's just it's just never-ending journey that is always happening right

and until you like essentially build yourself from the inside out you're always going to have like these shortcomings because you think there's some finish line everywhere uh an example he uses he was in a he was in a car with somebody from like apple or microsoft he was listening to these people speak at at microsoft and all they were talking about was how they're going to be apple where their numbers were against Apple and everything else. And this was back when the Zoom was out. It's a Zoom, right? And he was in a car with somebody from Apple after this speech, after all these talks.

And he had the Zoom in his thing. He told the person from Apple, hey, here's the new Zoom product. This is better than the iPod. And the dude from Apple is like, I have no doubt. Because he was saying fundamentally the people from Apple, the reason they are where they're at right now is because, they know that along this entire road, like, they're going to be behind at some point. But the way he's explaining, like, the infinite game and all these finite games and all these

different things, I don't know, it helps me compartmentalize sometimes. Like, let me identify what game I'm trying to play because usually a lot of times, like, that's when I'm like, either, like, anxious or I get anxiety because I'm like looking, I'm looking to people next to me in front of me behind me. I'm comparing too much. And I need to, like, real stuff in. Right. You know what I mean?

No, that's great. I need to read that one. I read the start with a Y and I applied to my music. We talked about on this podcast before. Every song to me has to have a Y, but I've never read that one. Yeah. The Infinite Game. This one's called The Infinite Game.

Okay. Don't let me forget that, Bubble. I'll shoot you the links of those books. Yeah, dude, I'll check them, man. And some of the, in just some of the YouTube videos. Like, I get a lot, like, you get more from reading, but I get a lot of, like, listening because I haven't found, like, I get to my. head goes everywhere like when I'm trying to read.

How many times if you had to start back over on page? Oh, so many times. You realize I just read a whole page and didn't read it. Yeah. Because somebody drops it. Yeah. Because somebody drops a dime in there and then I just start thinking about my own life and how I can do this or that or the other.

And then I'm like, well, I just went through a couple page and not read them. I've been working on reading again. There's something else I've been trying to do to combat my depression. Yeah? I'm, yeah, dude, I love, I used to love reading, man. I kind of, you got in the weight from it because of being busy. You know, it's like we had a thousand excuses why we don't have time to do shit. 100% that.

It's like reading to me is like a waste of 30 minutes to an hour of a day. I've only got 24 of them. I'm sleeping for a. You know, I'm just like really thinking my hours of the day through and reading doesn't fit in there. But I've been back reading and feeling really, really good about it. And I also, when I haven't read in a while and I'm scared a new book won't catch me,

I'll go back to a classic that I know that I can read a thousand times. Yeah. Like a quick read. Like for me, it's always a Mitch album book, like the five people you meet in heaven or Tuesdays with Mori. Oh, damn, no. I've never, I haven't read that.

Man, listen, if you please. Say that quote again? Especially so. What's the five people? The two books are called Mitch Album, and if I suggest two books in life, these are the two. I shit you not. The five people you meet in heaven,

and there's another book called Tuesdays with Mori, and these two books have changed the way I interact with human beings entirely. Like entirely. And the way me and you represent the blue collar working man, The five people you meet in heaven is that book. It is like the most average dude that felt like he had no effect on life that felt like he did nothing in life. And when he met the five people in heaven, realize he had did a ton in life. And it's like to me that's such a powerful story.

Because like when I'm reading it, I'm like, I don't think this dude could be any more average. And they paint him that way. They paint him as just like an average dude. But like how much of an impact he actually had on life. And these are quick reasons. like 200-something pages, by the way. They're like, dude, I read Tuesdays with Morrie again recently.

I read Tuesdays with Morrie again recently, and I read it in a day. Damn. I had a Saturday. I was like, it's college football day. I'll just read a little bit and literally it was just ended up like listening to the game in the other room and just like mowing through Tuesdays with Mori. It was like the seventh time I've read it.

The best feeling you have to, like when you take time to read is you realize when you're done reading, like there's nothing you were missing out on. Yeah. Like when you take a whole Saturday to read a book. Oh, for sure, because that book meant, and even though I've read it, it meant so much to me. It didn't change the fact I don't know how to say linguinist right. But good callback. Yeah.

But it was, it was, you know, it's, dude, it's chicken soup for the soul. Another good series to read. Chicken suit? Oh, yeah, man. They're good, too. Do you ever, do you ever do therapy? Yeah, yeah. So I had a therapist for the longest, man, and he helped me a lot.

and I haven't seen him in about six months, and I contribute some of that to it, too. And he's unable to do Zoom calls, and I'm unable to go to where he's at. So we've had, like, a really weird thing. And it hurts my heart because he's my guy. Yeah. I don't think I'm allowed to say his name.

I'd like to call him out of his shit. I can make time for me, fucker, put me on Zoom. Because he was like, you know what? He's the first therapist I ever had that, like, cussed me. It was like, he was like, just fucking stop. He was like, you're fucking full of shit right now. And I was like, you're right. I was kind of feeding you a line here to get through this session.

He was like, yeah, man, stop that shit. Just leave if you're going to do that. I don't care about the $100-something bucks. He's a fucking big old Memphis dude, gangster. I was like, fuck, yeah, man, you're my huckle bear. But I'm in. I'm coming every week if you'll let me. And I just, like, where his office is located and where my business is.

It's like, I know it goes back to the make-time thing. Sometimes it's just, you know, it's just what it is. Yeah, because my wife and I, like we do our couples therapy and stuff and I'm just a huge fan and doing the whole therapy thing. We're doing the premarital counseling up until we got married and then we switch it to like every other week and just do like ongoing therapy. You know, we haven't got to talk about this, Bubba. Congratulations.

What a dude that hit the jackpot. You just get married. Go on this honeymoon, like proclaiming you're going to have a kid. You end up having a swimmer. I know, dude. I know. You had one go all the way. way.

Thanks, man. It's like a textbook. It's like some shit you think is like staged. You know what I'm saying? A law of attraction boys. Spoken to existence. Like, I think every post you were like going to have a baby down here.

And I was like, this is getting weird. And then she was pregnant. And I was like, holy fuck. He said it's getting weird. I was like, oh,

that's funny as shit, dude. Um, thank you, dude. Thank you. We're excited. Oh, yeah.

March 27th is like the due date. So it happened literally the week of the honeymoon. That is fucking nuts. Yeah. Yeah, dude, it's like every time I've ever tried to have a kid, it didn't work. And every time I tried not to, I got one. It's like I got the opposite story of you. Yeah, you always feel too like, you know, and I know I was out there talking about it and like, you know, mess around the whole speaking to exist and thing.

And then when you do have one, you're like also cautious because you know people are actually trying to have them and not to make too much light of it. You know what I mean? Yeah. It's like a weird bag of war. I'm going to be proud of that swimmer, dog. don't worry about that. I hope she's good, man. It's a baby girl, too.

Oh, dude, they're great. Oh, she's smart. Yeah. Listen, man. Volleyball, I'm hoping. Soccer. I got a boy and a girl, and they were, I treated them. I realized that the father and us will instinctively treat them different.

And I didn't realize this until this happened. I might have talked about this. I don't think I did it on this podcast, but my daughter, the first time she fell, I remember vividly, picking her up, kissing the boo-boo, talking her. through it. Just being like, we're going to be okay. Don't cry. Relax. Get through the nose out to the mind. It happens. You'll fall in life. You get back up. Go play.

Trust me. This is a, you'll, this lesson applies to life. She's thank you, Daddy. She cries a little bit and goes and runs off. The first time my son fell, I said, get your ass up. Yeah. I said, don't fucking cry. You bet. Hey, don't do. Don't. I'll disown you, motherfucker. Get up there, run along. And it was just instinctively. And that's wrong. But it was like, that was my instinct with my son.

I was like, hold on, don't be no pussy now. And with my daughter's like, breathe easy, baby. It's okay to cry a little bit, but you got to get back on the sound. But dude, I was like, man, I'll kick you. You start crying right now. Has that changed? Does you identify that? No.

No, I'm still hard on him. Listen, listen, he's got, his mother softens him up enough. Somebody needs to make sure he's all right. Yeah. But no, I mean, I try to go less hard on him. But it's just, it's just the way I try to go less hard on it. The way I communicate with him is totally different. Right.

And when I'm being, like, conscious of it, it's like, you're still like, you know, it's like, it's like the boys. It's like you're talking to your little dude, man. You know what I mean? So it's like it's a little different. Like, I still hug them and love on them like I do, Bailey. But I'll also punch him in the arm. You know what I'm saying?

Yeah. It's just, I don't think about it. You know what I mean? You just walk by and go, what's up? You know, hit him in the arm. I'd never punch Bailey in the arm. One, Bailey's crazy. She punched me back.

She's 13 and wild. But it's like, you know what I'm saying? But yeah, man, it's a different thing. You're going to love it, though. You're going to make a great dad. I hope so, man. Girl, Dad, Gang. I know.

That was a phenomenal read, Jill. Thank you, man. Until the end, what you understood, and I didn't, which is, you know what that reminded me of? It was like when you give this great ad and it's like also may cause AIDS, herpesyphalitis. Yeah. It's like, when you started doing that, I was like, well, hold on.

You may die. I was like, what the fuck is happening here? I know. We messed that up one time because I kind of said something similar. Like, I don't even know what all that means. And then we got a, we got nipped the next week. like, hey, can't, you got to read that last part. You can mess with any other part of the read, but you can't mess up that last part.

Don't fuck up the legal part, son. All right, we got some, this is tough. This is tough because I'll tell you why this pot is tough for me right now. Because I love kind of talking about what we've been talking about. We got current events up we want to hit. It's a Halloween podcast. Hold on. Did you see Halloween yet?

I saw it. Hang on. I don't want to go there yet. Okay, sorry. Because I have so. So anxious. I have like, I have like kind of a one last question. Like I kind of want to stay in that conversation for a second.

Okay. Because I'm, I'm interested. When I saw you tweet that, I saw Ernest, uh, get on it too. And you talk about,

uh, depression being real, which I'm 100% on board with. Do you like, my first question, are you, uh, is this like,

is clinical depression like a big, like a huge real thing? I know that sounds ignorant to ask, but I'm just curious. Is that like, I'm looking at you guys too like you guys would know as well I would believe so

how's that doing on the mic by the way I would believe so like is that what are you diagnosed clinically depressed or you go up and down like you have like not to like for lack of my own knowledge

like bipolar to where you just go up and down you're riding some roller coaster I think I'm so I'm more of an up and down guy my mother is back in the day they call it manic depression and they've since called it bipolar my mother battled depression my whole life.

So I also, when I talk to my therapist, sometimes wonder if that's the root because sometimes we mimic what we know. And it's like, that's what I knew. I'll give an example and this is like crazy personal. And I joke about it a lot, but it's real. I can count the number of times on one hand as a child I've seen my mother dressed and outside of the house. Damn.

On one hand, on one hand, I can count how many times I've seen her. dressed and out of our front door. And sadly, one of those times whenever I was 16 and a half, 17 years old and getting charged as an adult and juvenile and she had to come. Just because of just the insane depression.

Yeah. I've seen her get out more in the last five years and I did the first 30 years of my life. Jesus, man. You know? And it was like ingrained in her. Like she was extremely

depressed. Like getting her outside of the house is one thing. It was like months on end. I wouldn't see her outside of her bedroom. I would literally have to go to her bedroom to where she would hold court. Like she just did not get out of the house. That's probably hard to see too growing up. Like that being your mom and somebody you really look up to,

that's probably hard to see all the time. That's my mom, dude. You know what I mean? It's like she was, and that's why I told you the story about the Bet, Midler Rose at one time. It was like she dealt with her depression through entertainment as well. Like she would sit at that kitchen table

when she would come out of that room and smoke a cigarette and listen to music and close her eyes and just she wasn't there. I was like, I want to make music like that. I want to do that. Like I want to help the way,

because the doctors couldn't seem to help her. She took all these pills. It didn't change nothing. She'd go to the, she went to the psychiatric hospital a couple of times. Never came back a changed woman. But music was something I could clearly see change her. This is like,

And this is like maybe the deepest I've ever got on the podcast. But music was something I seen change the way she dealt with her emotions, right? So I was like, well, that's so like, maybe I would have been a doctor if the psychologist would have helped. Right. Maybe I would have been like, you know, I want to do that. I want to help that way, you know. But music was the way I seen it help. So I was like, okay, well, this is, maybe this is what I can do that.

Maybe music can help, you know. It taught me how therapeutic music was. So I think that it's like with me, my depression just kind of has always been a, I'm either real manic or real low. I have an extreme personality with it. Like in general, people who meet me after seeing, first of all, barstool, bussing with the boys specifically, one of the greatest fan bases on earth. The amount of times I see people in public that stop me and go seeing you on bussing is insane.

Congratulations to what you and Taylor and the boys are built. Dead ass. But it's like, what was I saying before that? You were talking about your mom's depression and how you saw the music change it. And then you were starting to talk about yourself the way you deal with your pressure. Sometimes it's manic. Sometimes it's like back to my extreme personalities. Yeah, people meeting you out in person.

Yeah, but I think the reason I thought about that was because they're like always cheering for me. And they're like, because we're deep on the podcast sometimes, they ask real pointed question. Hey, man, how are you doing? Something with that, man. you know, but it's like, I deal with things in extreme measures. But I said that too about them boys because when they meet me out, they're like, damn, you're exactly how you are on a podcast. Like, you're kind of erratic in life.

You've been with me. Like a lot of few of y'all now have been out with me. Like I'm kind of this way. This is who the fuck I am. It's not like, oh, turn it on. I'm getting on the bus. You know what I mean? Right.

You know, whatever. It's like, but I, it's my extreme personality. The other side of that extreme personality, is when I go to the house and just don't answer nobody's phone call for three weeks. You see what I'm saying? Yeah. I'm either on or off in general. Like that's my thing.

Like I'm either dieting and trying to lose weight and actively care about living or I don't give a fuck if the plane crashes. You see what I'm saying? I'm either going out to get fucking absolutely shit-faced or I won't have a drink tonight. We're either going to sit here and do an entire bag of cocaine together or I'll pass. You know what I'm saying? Oh yeah.

I know what you mean. You know, it's like this is my personality in general, right? I'll do this entire bag of Coke. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. It's like either we're going to go for it. We're going to sit here and rip little slugs and gator tails together. I'm not fucking doing no drugs tonight.

Yeah. You know, it's like that has been my personality forever. And I think it kind of coincides with my depression because I'm either like, let's go take over the world. Let's write music. Let's go help people. Let's go do shows. Let's go do this.

Let's vlog. Let's go podcast. Let's go do that. You know what I mean? Or I'm just like, I don't even want to look at my phone this week. Damn. And that's just kind of my thing.

Do you take anything for it? No. I'm afraid to. And I don't want to get too deep into that conversation because I don't judge people who do. And I want to be more educated before I speak on it because somebody inevitably will light my ass up right now. Right.

That's why I was sitting there nervous even bringing up all that stuff because I don't want to disrespect anybody. I want to get educated on it. But my mother, my example of it, I've never seen a difference. And I have other examples in my family who have followed my mother's footsteps that I don't want to say their name because I don't want to put them on freight street like that. But I've got real siblings who are just like she was that I love to death and talk to all the time that are just like I can't figure out of this funk. And I go to their house nap, you know, 25 pills on the counter.

So it's like for me it's more like talking, communicating. Coming on here and doing this. You text me like, yo man, can we get into the depression today? I was like, yeah, I actually feel so much better talking about it. To be honest with you, having stuff like this and last night, Joe, Rogan and Chappelle, get me out of it. You know, it's like, it's like purpose driven all of a sudden. It's like, okay, I got to get up and, you know, like this is deeper than myself.

I got to get up and get dressed and go do something. Yeah. Maybe somebody out there watching this is like, man, I needed to hear that. You know what I'm saying? 100%. So it's like it becomes purpose driven. Yeah. And for me, it's like, if you leave it up, like, I live.

for my family. I live for people. My wife calls me her little Robin Williams. I make everybody happy but myself, right? But it's like, that's my purpose, though. If it was left to Jason by himself, I would have already died. I would have already overdosed. If I didn't live for other people, if you had to count on what I find in myself worth, oh, I'd already, this thing would have been over it. And that's real. Yeah. Yeah, I definitely wanted to. It's not right, but it's real. I asked you that too, because I feel like I'm comfortable enough with you to ask about it, because there's a lot, I just don't know about that world that much. And so when you're open and talking about it,

like you have a few times on the pod, I'm just like, hey, I want it. Because you had a recent, you had the recent post of like depression's real. And you just, you're just curious, like, what that looks like when you start to slide down and when you start to come up out of it

because, yeah, anybody listening and watching, you just never know how you can, your story can help people because you're open about talking about it. Like literally, we were at the tailgate yesterday and this counselor came up and was just so stoked that, we talk about therapy and mental mental health on the podcast.

And she's like, it makes me so happy. Because she's like, hey, I'm one of your female listeners. I'm like, oh, one of five. It's nice to meet you. We're joking around. But, yeah, she brings that stuff up. So it's like, I have that. I think it means a lot coming from y'all too, though, because like, even though you might not

experience it being open to communicate about it, makes it cool for that's like, I don't want to say jocks, but like there's a stigma that comes with guys like you. No doubt. That are just like, he's not, you know, he probably. They don't deal with stuff. Like, we would assume, one would assume that not only do you, like, not only you would be like, depression isn't fucking real. Get over it. You know, snap a football.

You know what I'm saying? It's like, join a program. You know what I'm saying? Like, you know, it's like, but that's not how you look at it. You are fascinated. Like, yo, I don't deal with it, but I understand the reality of it. How does it work? And that's cool because I think it makes it guys like y'all being open up to it and having conversations with guys like me is such a far cry from what it was like when we

with kids. Oh, even having this conversation would be like, fucking absolutely not. Right. You know what I mean? Like listen to these pussies on there talking about. Yeah,

yeah, exactly. You know what I mean? The fucking pussy's on there talking about this fucking fake shit. Yeah, you know what I mean? Forget over it. You know what I mean? It's like,

but now it's like a real conversation and that's cool, man. Oh, yeah. That's going to help so many people to open up about it. Right. Because it's never a cry for help. You know what I mean? Like,

that's something else when I posted that. I was like, it's never a cry for, wanting sympathy. Yeah, it's like you never want that. I just, I feel like I owe people honesty. You know, when I'm clearly not active, you know what I'm saying? And I'm in like, like, I'm in like one of the biggest parts of my career ever. It would like fancy me a lot to be active right now. Like I wish I had the courage to post more. You know what I'm saying? I wish I felt confident enough to post more and I wasn't low sometimes. Because I mean, it would do nothing but help me right now, right? Because of like the way the music's going. it's like so when I'm not active I'm like I just feel like this honesty and I also feel like it's important like I posted a picture the other day of me coming off stage and I was clearly twisted I don't know if you've seen the picture I don't think so I posted this picture

it's top five worst pictures of me ever and I posted it saying this picture is not flattering for me it makes me look like I didn't lose 25 pounds look like I gained 30 right and I'm like but it was there it is the one with the cup yeah it's like just look at how horrible this picture is of me right but it's like it was really really I just walked off stage. It's like the Spooktober shirt photo. I was fucking drunk. Yeah, right.

I was on a shirt, baby. Fuck yeah. Fuck, bus more. I'm on a Fooktober shirt. I'm fine. But it's like to me, I wanted to post that picture because it was like real. I wanted to post something that was like a picture that you, I wanted to intentionally post a picture that I wouldn't have posted. Right.

That I was just like, oh man, this was a real moment, though. I was really coming off stage in Detroit fucking feeling myself. I was drunk. I was on 10. I was fucking ready to go. You know what I'm saying? Look at me. This horrible picture.

You feel me? But I don't know, man. It was like, I want to be more intentional about posting the real shit, man. I think people get into it. Like, I don't know. I think it's good because you are having a lot of success with, like, your new album and like all your new music coming out and everything else. And you are seen as somebody who's ascending, right?

And so when you talk about depression, when you talk about like intentionally wanting to post stuff, especially when you have anxieties and deal with like, you know, whether we all want to admit or not, We all deal with like how we are perceived a lot of the times because of this made up world that we live in with social media. And it's it's cool to see somebody like you do that stuff because you're showing like the actual human side of everybody. So when somebody is watching and looking at it, they're like, you know, he's not somebody who just posts all the glamour, all the to where it looks like his life is just perfect all the time. This is somebody who struggles because a lot, like you said, a lot of athletes and a lot of players are not talking about mental health and stuff that they struggle with because we are all human beings. Like we all get the spots where we're making certain choices, right?

And for me personally, I'm always not fascinated like, oh, this is awesome, but like I'm always very curious about like where it starts to go a little sideways or left for somebody like you. Like I see you as a friend and stuff. So when you're tweeting and stuff like that, like your immediate thing is like, hey, how are you doing? Like, how is everything going? How, you know, is there anything anybody can do? But you just never know what somebody, how they want to reciprocate that. But I think it's dope that you do that because, again,

a lot of people struggle with shit. Whether they're successful or not. You know what I mean? It makes it real. Yeah. It has no, it has no discrimination. Mental health has no discrimination, man. I've seen it hit every color race denomination, you know.

Even the, it's just, it's just real. It's just something I think. I think everybody's dealt with it in some weird way, in their own way. And I think people just work their way out of their funk better. And some people are just better at coping, man. You know, it's like, I just don't, I'm learning. I think a lot of it for me is finding,

I said this a few minutes ago and didn't realize it was like an epiphany. When you ever said something that you have thought about and was like, that's real. Like it's self-worth for me, I think. I think sometimes I don't find value in self, right? It's like I found value in what I do, but not who I am. You know what I'm saying? Oh, yeah.

Like, and I think that sometimes that causes it. I just really, like you were a therapist for me right now. Like I thought about that when I said that to you. And I was like, yeah, if I was up to my own self-worth, I'd already died. I'd have fucking probably overdosed on drugs. It's just lack of caring. You know what I mean? And at that moment, I was like, that's real.

I find a lot of worth and what I do, not who I am. You know what I mean? Oh, yeah. That's a fucked up thing. It's like the identity thing. You ever been to a bar and like the male thing is the first thing when we meet another male? First question we ask.

What's the first question you ask a male, right? Just meet each other, just at a bar, having a drink. Hey, what's up, man? I'm Will. Hey, I'm Jelly. Hey, what do you do? What do you do for a living? Yeah.

That's where we find our identity, right? We immediately find our identity and what we do for work. You know what I'm saying? I think that's some real male shit because girls don't do that. They immediately compliment each other. I fucking love your hair. That lip gloss is fire. Where'd you get them shoes?

That's immediately what they do, not dudes. What do you do for a living? First question we ask each other. You know what I mean? Yeah. No, you're right. that's wild I'm like everybody I feel like

everybody sitting here and I'm just I'm immediately going to like my myself yeah it's crazy um I'm glad to make you laugh with that I'm like sitting here like oh shit I need to come up with I'm sitting here thinking like I mean he's dropping some real not like I'm like listening to him and then he's just stops

and he's looking and I'm like hey that's just crazy it's real no it's like it's real though it's just you know and I think I want to focus more moving forward on trying to find identity outside of that. I wish we'd focus more on what makes each other happy. Yeah. I wish that was the question.

Like, is you happy? Because even when I ask people, are they married? You know the second question I asked them? Are you happy? Fuck, we're all married.

But are you happy? Yeah. You know, all jokes aside. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. No, it's a deep thing. It's like,

what makes you know, like, I think that's the conversations that I enjoy having at bars, which is my favorite place to have conversations. at bars. Yeah, dude, you know, like, dude,

one of the greatest things I've ever experienced in life is traveling is just pulling up to random bars and talking to the kind of person you would never think you'd ever have a conversation with and just something about the common bond theory of being in that bar together. Yeah. Immediately is like, let's do it.

And you'll just find yourself talking to the coolest people on earth. You know what I mean? I've heard the coolest stories. Airport bars are always fun. You know, when you've got like a three-hour layover and just find some old man or something. Yeah, Jack's big on the airport beer, Blas or somebody back there.

Yeah. Say it's God tier. Dude, they make flying way easier, man. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Shall we turn the energy around? Oh, yeah. No, I mean.

One more link I'll send you to is Awareness by Anthony DeMalo. Because when you were saying the identity thing, in that book in awareness, it just talks about like all of our, the awareness that we have as an indivision, how we're literally tied to, we're tied to labels and identities. And that's what was making me think and kind of just sit there,

like oh damn that's crazy. Oh dude, please send that to me. Yeah, I will. Please, anything you can send like that, believe it or not, I'm like, I want to read it, I want to watch it. You want to wear it? Overload it. Because we have the best boots on the planet.

It's mock tober. It's spooktober. And Georgia Boot is celebrating just like we are the world's most comfortable mock toe boots ever. Georgia Boot is America's hardest working boot. And for over 80 years, Georgia have been making boots that work as hard as you do. Tough enough for your job, tough enough for the road when you're on the tour bus. cool enough for everything else.

Georgia Boot makes super good looking and super comfortable boots so comfortable. You never want to take them boys off. Jelly and I like looking good. And even when we're working, these boots are going to do just that and they don't sacrifice comfort or style. Think of the comfort technology of an athletic shoe packed into a great looking boot.

This is not an ad. This is real shit. Is if you can break a pair of boots in. Breaking on man, pain in the twat. It's a fucking dick kicker. It is hard. But once I'm telling you, but once you break them boots in, dude,

man, I got a pair of boots dog I've had for like six years. If I know I'm going to walk a lot and I need to look decent, so I want to put on my hokas, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, all right, because if I want to walk a lot,

I'm put on my hospital shoes, my hocus. You know what I'm saying? But if I want to look cool, boots. My wife's like, are you really going to wear boots? I'm like, bitch, these things are comfortable. I was like, these things are awesome. Why haven't you worn them to the tailgate yet? Yo, listen.

What's the deal with the tailgate? You haven't showed up at the spot yet, bro. Can we have one game that's not at noon? You know what I'm saying? We have, gee, we've had one game. Yeah, I forget, you wake up like the ear alarm goes off 30 minutes before that new game. I woke up in this fucking like halftime Sunday. You know what I'm saying? It's like, and the score, we were doing so well.

I was afraid to watch the game because I thought, you know, you get superstitious about football. I was like, we're just doing good because I'm not watching it. I was like, I'm going to listen to it on the radio instead. And I did. I listened to the whole second. I would not turn the TV on. Also, as a Titan fan, I fear when we come out that strong. Because we're like a building team.

So like, anytime we've ever came on strong, I'm like, we're going to blow it. We're going to blow this in the second half. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. It's like anytime we start and kind of get our ass kick the first half, I'm like, we're going to rally. That's what the fuck we do. We're taking an overtime and win to the fuck we are. We are Titans.

When we come out really swamp and shit, I'm like, eh, uh-oh. I was like, this ain't good. Go south fast. I know, especially when Mahomes came back that one year in the playoffs on Houston down, what, 21-0 or something like that, came back and everybody's kind of like, hey. Oh, for sure. You just don't play with my homes, man. So I was just like, I was nervous. But yeah, man, once I promise I want to come bad, dude.

You have no clue. I was like a cunt hair away from coming to see you in Knoxville. I was so close. You should have came, bro. It was electric. Oh, dude, first of all, coolest thing ever in SEC football history was on trash in the field.

Listen, I know it's an unpopular opinion. Jelly is for sure the type that's stone mustard bottles, dude. Fuck yeah, get them. Unpopular opinion. But I was like, that's about as East Tennessee as it gets. I was like, this is like, this is the most in East Tennessee

shit ever, ever, yes. Fuck, I was proud. We were on national news for tearing our own shit up. How white trash is that? It wasn't like we dumped it on the old Miss field. We fucked up our field. How's that make you feel, Jay? Oh, great.

We were on the home side, on the field in like water bottle can't. Oh, dude. It is the bad, listen, man, it's like, I know that's an unpopular opinion, right? but I love white trashery. It's like I'm a big fan of white trashery. Like in any former fashion. You know like when somebody streaks at the Super Bowl? I'm like, fuck yeah.

Way to go, man. That falls into the category of white trashy streaking at the Super Bowl. It's like, all, anything that is just like as dirty as it can be that's just like makes you feel like, I like, it's like, I like, it's like, I like drugs that you can't control, like acid. Like you take it and you're like, yep, I'm not in charge no more. I'm saying. So it's like, I like shit. You always know,

you always know, jelly, he just keeps going. It's going to end up at drug somewhere. And he had to say acid. But for me, it's like shit that makes you feel a little dirty,

you know? Like when you listen to like a song, it makes you feel like, I shouldn't like this. Or like you watch a movie, it's like, it's kind of fucked up. I dig this this much.

You're into some weird shit. You're into, I'm just into fuck shit. You're dirty boys. Right? I'm like, Like, my wife is like where this is the, like, the balance of our beautiful relationship. She is like, I don't want to go anywhere.

There's a lot of people. I'm like, I only want to go places there's a lot of people. Like, I, like, if there's 50,000 people somewhere, rioting even, I would like to go spectate. I would like to be as close to that as possible. That is funny as fuck. When they started throwing shit, I was like, fucking, we should have went. We blew it.

You'd had a great time with us, dude. We were in Gatlinburg, me and the whole family for fall break. Oh, nice. 26 of us. And my brother's a big UT fan, like, had Smokey the dog tattooed on his arm. Dog, 26 motherfuckers? 26 of us in one cabin. We do it every year.

One cabin. How big is the cabin? Hopefully. Oh, it's like 16 bedroom or something like that. Jesus. Like the kids would bunk up and stuff. But yeah, we do two family vacations a year like that every year since my dad died. You got 26 family members?

Mm-hmm. Yeah, between brothers and sisters and, and nieces and now I got once again my language is all but grand nephews grand nieces and nephews And it plays man Yeah so great whatever

Greater grand I think you can use either or But yeah so I mean yeah When you look down the tree It was like 26 I was once they start bringing their boyfriend And then the boyfriend has a kid You know how shit goes Like when you start really Packing in the tree of the family

I think it was 26 I was for real Jesus any of them you don't know And we were missing Do you like meet people When you're on these little family affairs? Only the plus ones. Hey, who are you? I'm like, oh, I'm your cousin.

Yeah, yeah. No, no, no, no. That happens all the time too, but no, this is like, this is my immediate family. Okay. I meet cousins and shit at like the big family reunion. It's like 100, 200 of us, but we're big old white trash. You know how it is, man. Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You get that from Missouri. There is some trashy in Missouri now. Did you see the video I sent you from that fan at Missouri? I text you at like mid-night. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're like, hey, Bubba. Yeah. And you're like, fuck you, but this guy loves you or something.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, I was drunk. But listen, but I do love you and fuck you too. But he, uh, it was just, that was another example of the fucking tier ones, dog. No, I don't think he said that. This dude was in the meet and greet line. And he was like, fucking hat on his buss and hat. And I was like, Will would love that.

He's like, that's my boy. He's from Missouri. He's from right down the street. I was like, hold on. We're catching us right now. Right down the street. Yeah. Yeah, I met somebody at the tailgate from Potosi.

And I was like, ooh. That's the Tiff digger country, bro. That's, you're getting into some family affairs over and Potosi now. That was the one who took the photo. And yo, Will, I'm in Missouri, baby. You know, we're in your home state. So they did it for the boys, baby.

You motherfucker. Love you, Bubba. Yeah, it just made me tickle me pink, man. Oh, and we just miss each other in Nebraska. I know. We just fucking, like, it's going to happen. How was the Lincoln? How was the Lincoln trip?

It was incredible, man. Yeah? It was really, really cool, man. It was a, you know, they were a little somber in the city that day because of the obvious. Michigan, the loss of a little sad in the city. I went to Virginia's Cafe, which I always go eat at. Okay, yeah. It's been there for years.

Yeah. And the coolest part of this story is if you're really familiar with Virginia's cafe, it's like a historic, like, breakfast spot right off campus kind of. And the lady Virginia is like 86 years old that owned it started at 50, some, 60 years ago. Yeah. She was in there eating. And I got to hang out with Virginia herself. Did you take a photo?

No, I didn't bother her with it, man. She was kind of like, Oh, don't fuck with me shit. But it's like, but the dude that was with her was a sweetheart and her grandchildren all took pictures with me and shit. But she was very nice. Yeah.

You know, so she was so cool that we sat next to her and talked the whole time. And then her husband was like, this is Virginia. I was like, oh, dope. Hey, Miss Virginia. She was like, no, like Virginia, like, you're eating in Virginia. This is the cafe. She started 60-something years ago. I was like, this place is fucking fire.

And she was like, yeah, thank you. My grandkids. said you're famous or something. I was like only to certain demographics, but yes. Only to East Tennessee. Only in trailer parks and apartment complex. Section 8 based on income housings across America. And the cooks in the back.

No, yeah, yeah. The cooks in the back. Blue-collar people, baby. What do we got next? Washington football team lost to the Packers. You know, hey, there's a lot of bad stuff going on with the Washington football team. You didn't play for them. I didn't play for the Washington football team.

I played for the Washington. And you can bleep it out when I say so that way we, you know, it's a kid show. This is a kid show. I can't believe Cleveland buckled. I can't believe they're changing the name of the Indians. Yeah.

Who else is doing that too? Are the Chiefs changing their name? Are the Braves? I'm going to tell you something about Kansas City and Missouri, and you know this. I think they would trip. I think the good people of Missouri. I thought Cleveland would be.

A lot of good people in Missouri. Let's be clear about that. A lot of good people. people in Missouri. I'm just saying, man, I just, if there's one play, I mean, Arrowhead Stadium. You know how much they'd have to do a complete rebrand? I don't see it happen. I don't see it happen either.

The people I know in Kansas City would fucking trip. Yeah. For sure. Well, another team that's five and two. The Las Vegas Raiders, dude. The boys are fucking rolling right now. Do you keep up with the Raiders at all? My wife is a Raiders fan.

She grew up in Vegas, so you know, my dog has a Raiders jersey. It infuriates me. Dude, the Raiders are fucking rolling. With the stuff that came out with Gruden the other week and how they've been playing for Coach Basatia, two Ws in a row. Like the boys are fucking, the boys are rolling.

Max Crosi's balling, Derek Carr, all of them. They won without Darren Waller. Basacha's doing social media now, which you'll never see. I'm sure they'll have to have, you know, they'll probably have to have a little group meeting with him about drinking the Kool-Aid

and letting success seduce him. But... Let's stop here and talk a little bit of your expertise here. What's happening in that locker room? Right now with the Raiders? Tell me, give me the, like you're a bit like everything the coach went through the coach steps down suddenly you're on fucking fire as an organization not saying the new coach isn't doing a great job but we know that

the root of these boys winning is what's happening in that locker room the boys coming together right what's happening so and i'm not and i'm not just i'm not just saying this coach basatia there's not i want to say derrick car had a quote too like there's not a better like he has every eyeball and ear in that locker room, like ready to essentially die for that man. Like that dude rallies the fucking troops. He's a special teams coach. He's always been a special teams coach. So he coaches both offensive and defensive guys.

When I was there, dude, like the respect that this man has is crazy. Best speech giver in all the land. Dude, hit you anytime he sees you and greet you, he's hitting you on the left side of your chest because he wants to feel your heart is what he says. He's as real as it fucking gets. not joking. Derek Carr, he has the ear of the locker room. He has the pulse. He has the heartbeat. And he's our leader. We would love for him to still be our head coach for the future. And that's not like he's not feeding a company line. Right. He's not feeding a company line.

But Sachi was also the assistant head coach like while Gruden was the head coach there. So he's like, you know, as far as how the dudes were in the locker room when all that stuff went down, when Coach Bessagia comes up and stands in the team meeting room, All the boys I know were, like, dialed in, like, ready to go. Because he's got the right stuff to say. Like, he's huge on leadership. One of the best leaders I've been around when it comes to, like, being a leader over a group of players. Because, you know, you have some coaches.

Like, you kind of just sit there and you hear him saying their spiel, and you're kind of like, I know this guy isn't, like, what he's sitting here preaching to be. Basacha is about that life. And I am a huge Basascha guy. I stand him. Fucking, but the Raiders are in good hands. So, but tell me about the conference. conversation with the boys before the coach gets in a locker. Because there's a moment where the inmates can choose to run the asylum,

that they're in there together and they're having a moment. It's like, so our coach is in trouble and he's out of here. There's a moment before the coach, I can't say, I'm, Coach Besatia. Coach Besatio. So there's a thing before coach walks in, right, where the boys are in there talking. And this is something only you could have a pulse of what it would even feel like.

What's that moment? I'm telling you, man. Like when that stuff would go down. I mean, if somebody in there going, yo, man, we trust this guy. Like, they had a unanimous talk right now. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yes.

That's what I'm trying to say. Like, there's no, there, the only blink that was happening was like, damn, all this shit, like, this is all the stuff that's leaking out from all these emails. Like, that's fucking wild, right? From all the stuff with Coach Gruden. Um, but as far as, like, transitioning to the next guy, he's already the assistant head coach. So it's more of like, you can't wait to be in the room to see what he says in the team meeting. But as far as, but as far as.

as guys questioning, there's zero, there was probably zero doubt when going into the next team meeting. As far as like, we know what we're going to have to do. We know what Coach Passachi is going to be preaching immediately. The boys are like, you know, probably lock the fucking doors, dial in, focus up, keep it all about the team and play for each other.

And that's what those dudes are doing right now. Like, and when I text, like when I text Max, when I'm texting Alex, when I'm texting those boys and saying let's fucking go, like after they win, I'm like, yeah, I bet it's so hype. fucking with Coach Masachi is at the helm. And they're all about it, dude. Everybody trust that, dude.

The reason I ask is what the boys were doing in their locker room is because I'm a huge, you know, I'm a huge Titan fan. And every week they do a clip on Instagram now, which is so cool for me. It's normally Kevin Byer, right? It's normally KB, like, talking to the secondary. And he's, like, giving, like, this like little war cry right before the game. And I'm like, you know, you always hear about, oh, this boy's a leader in the locker room.

You hear about it in wrestling, right? like professional wrestling when they're like The Undertaker was a leader in the locker room or this is what happened when Vince wasn't in the locker room and these are the conversations. So I'm always anxious to know what's happening with players like the psychology when they're getting together and people are clearly rallying the troops and going,

look, we're going to get through this. This isn't life changing for us. Coach Pistachio, it's fucking great. Yeah, I'll say this. So majority of other locker rooms, I could probably, I could confidently say most of the locker rooms If their head coach goes out the way Coach Gruden went out, a lot of the guys are probably like,

let's start playing it for New Year's. Right. You know what I mean? Like, okay, let's get through the rest of this year. Type of thing. You know, it's showing now, but I'm telling you, that dude has the most respect in the world. You'd fuck with him heavy.

No, dude, listen, I love everything about it, man. I just think it was cool for them to, what a fucking story. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, just, I just couldn't imagine. I just try to imagine. imagine what that locker room's like, what the phone calls between players are like

when they're doing that real how the sausage is made conversations. Shit, we'll never know. You know what I'm saying? You know what I mean? It's like those movie scenes, especially like with the Raiders,

like the way all the boys are feeling. It was, I envision to be like those. I would love to see that coach coming in and having, you're talking about movie scenes, him coming in and having that first conversation with the team. Yeah. Addressing the team.

Have you, you guys, did you guys see that clip I posted on my story not too long ago when he was at Dallas on Hard Knocks? Juicy. Can we play that? Are we able to find that at all? Yeah. Can you type in, yeah, you probably type in Basaccia Hard Knocks speech or something like that.

Dude, this will give you a glimpse of what this man's like. The one time I did have a speech while they're looking this up, I'll tell you this story. We were doing this big show in Kansas City. And I was like, we had a, Travis O'Gwen was coming from strange music. Yeah. And they were trying to sign me up to do Red Rocks with Tech Nine and to do the Tech Nine tour. And I was like, listen, y'all, we're in Travis O'Gwinton City. This dude is the biggest independent CEO and independent rap music history.

Keep the fucking green room clean. Do not get in no trouble tonight. Don't scream. Don't be weird. We need to be on our best behavior if we're going to get this show of Red Rocks, right? Yeah. I have this, like, heartfelt talk. Only time I've ever done this in my life.

The only time I've ever gave my crew a list of rules, right? Yeah. Soon as the show's over, we get in a brawl in the casino lobby. a brawl. I'm talking about like two of my dudes go to jail. I get cuffed. Like they searched the, like, it just, it couldn't have went worse. Right? Never since then. I was like, I'll never give y'all fucking rules again. Burn shit down. This fight. I don't give a fuck. Do whatever. Because when I had that approach, nothing bad ever happened. Yeah, that is funny. One night I needed us on our best behavior. We ended up with like four fucking criminal cases. It was horrible. Yeah, I'll never do that again.

This is a very true. I'm not the one to give speeches. I'm going to post a casino clip one day. You want me to try and search something, Alex? Yeah, you got it. I know exactly what I'm on. I want to say it was on, uh, when I shared it, somebody had put it on like a TikTok or something.

Yeah. This is coming out this week, right? Yeah, Wednesday. November the 9th, I make my grand old Opry debut. Let's fucking go, dude. And in fact, if you'll send me this clip,

this is how I'm going to announce it. Thank y'all. The clip of me getting invited to the Ryman, which was another, the grand old opera, which was another one that I was scared to pose because I ugly cried. I thought it was too vulnerable. The clip went viral and I was already invited,

but I can honestly say because of y'all, because of y'all sharing the clip the way you did, they rushed me to have my debut. Normally my debut wouldn't have been for months and months and months, but because of y'all, thank y'all. Our grand old operary jelly roll November the night. You get the boys going to be there? Come on, baby.

Y'all better come. You better come. Dude, this is big, dude. We better go, man. I mean it was dude I was scared to post it I was so like vulnerable it was such a genuine I posted it five days afterwards I kept watching it and I was like should I post it my wife was like yeah I was like I don't know man I was like you know internet's mean you know what I'm saying like I could just shoot somebody clipping me crying and going when they run out of hamburgers

at McDonald's you know what I'm saying yeah this is like serious for me you found the clip get your headphones on Okay. Hey, man, figure it the fuck out. Coach, Coach Masascia. I'm so glad we don't use headphones to do this podcast. I know. As soon as I put them on, I'm like, ooh, I don't sound good. There's three things in life.

I don't give a fuck. How much money you make. You cannot buy them. The first thing is your fucking health. I know you guys went through a lot of shit to get ready for tonight, to get ready for tomorrow. It needs to be fucking respected.

You can't buy your health. The second one is love. But you better love what you do or else you don't really want to get up in the morning to do it. You better love who you're around, but you don't fucking want to be around them, whether it's in your house or it's in your locker room. And then the last one is time. How many years, Witt? 15.

How many years, L.P. 13. It's moving fast now. The time is moving fast. How many years, Zach Martin? Four. We won a championship yet? No.

You won one yet? When? No. It's fucking moving. The time is moving. How many years, Orlando? Ten. The time is moving.

Like that. Stand still for fucking no one. Well, you know what you got tomorrow? You got a chance and an opportunity in time to play a fucking game. To do what you love to do. And somehow, some way, you got yourself healthy enough to play in the fucking game. That's it. When you play this game, it's a grind.

It's hard. You got to love every second of it. Or get the fuck out. Get the fuck out and don't do it. Can't wait to see you all play. Woo. Oh, go. God, dude.

Hey, how'd that make you feel, dude? Dude, listen, I tell you what. I wish one thing money could buy is a speech from him every morning. Just send me like a fucking 15 second clip in the morning like, get up jelly roll. God damn it. You can do it. Motherfucker. This is it.

You can't buy that. You know, fucking that shit was. I see why the boys love him. Yeah, it takes like, you know, a lot of times, too, like you got a bunch of growing mince in her room, right? And you can tell sometimes when some coaches force some speeches and things and you kind of just sit there like you start to, like you're reading a book, you start thinking about something else. The way you were sitting there watching that probably dialed into every word he was saying. Like that's the amount of respect that that dude has.

Oh, literally. I think there was a lot of it I liked. And it was only a quick clip. But when he said, how many years such and such? He said four years. You got a championship yet? No, he said it's moving. At that moment, it was like, holy shit.

Like, time flies, bro. In my business, it hit me whenever I was looking like, it is moving. Like, I got, you know, like, I don't know. Dude was saying 15 years, 13, 10, 4. Yeah. The 10-year overnight success story, man. That's what they call it in our business. Made me think about.

Juicy boys. Made me think about the, the, I never ever fantasized or romanticized or visualized even. Tried to manifest certain things. I thought they were out of reach. And this was the first year of my life, I was like, I want to sing at the Grammys. Like, literally, this was the year. Like, to me, it was so far-fetched,

I never even dreamed it before. But I'm like, no, I want to sing at the Grammys. Like, I want to go to the CMAs next year. And I want to walk the red carpet. I want to start littering my office with awards. like I desire that. I never desired it before. You know what I mean?

But it's like, I think that it's time. And it's what I want. And it's like, when you're talking about sending me some of this motivational shit, I'm like, I need it, man.

I'm ready to get off my ass. I'm ready to fucking, I'm ready to lose like a hundred and something pounds. I'm ready to fucking start wearing a sock on my cock and do it in the helicopter when I get out of the shower. I'm ready to fucking start fucking winning awards. I'm ready to start fucking, you know what I'm saying?

I'm ready to start fucking. Trying to hold it in the sock on my collar. on my cock doing the helicopter. I'm trying to get after it, dog. I'm trying to, you know, I'm trying to make some real changes in life, man. Yeah. You got to be careful with all the desires, though. I'll talk to me.

I just say, I hear what you're saying, aspiring to be a lot of things. Like, I want to be a lot of things, too. And who is anybody to say you can't attain that? Because, you know, the stories you were talking about with your mom earlier, going from a kid like that, who would guess that a kid like that would be in a situation that you are now? So to think you getting to Grammys, you know, the space between that isn't as far as the space that was that little kid to where you are now, right? So you can obviously attain that stuff.

But when you talk about going up and down with some of your depression sometimes and identity and stuff like that, I think it's, I just, as far as like building from the inside out, you want to make sure you're going about it the right way other than I want to litter my room with awards. Because if you don't get those awards, right? And I'm not saying that this is you. That's why I just say be careful. But if you don't get those awards, what does that mean to you? To some people, it could mean failure. Oh, yeah. And I don't worry about that.

And I'll tell you why. I fear nothing because I have been where men are afraid to go. You cannot scare me with going back somewhere I've already been. Not only am I familiar with Rock Bottom, I was a fucking tour guy down there. I could show you around. I love that. I sat on that motherfucker Indian style most of my life. So I move fearlessly in music,

whether or not anything works for me or not, because you can never scare me with sending me back where I've been, ever. I'm not afraid of that. I'm not afraid to lose everything today. People who are afraid to lose shit and who are afraid for shit not to work or consider not being, like, I've already exceeded every expectation in life.

I've already done everything they said I couldn't do it. point, I'm just trying to put some whipped cream on what's already been the best brownie on earth. If I don't get the whipped cream, I don't care. It's the best brownie on earth. Yeah. And when I fuck this brownie up and I end up with an empty bowl, it won't be the first time I had an empty bowl.

You know what I'm saying? I'm okay with this. I find peace. That's where the confidence in who I am and what I do is the opposite of the confidence I have as far as Jason, right? I know. And I think that's part. part of my deep rooted shit too is that I am not afraid of that.

And it helps me so much in my business will because I'm not afraid of losing everything. When I just dropped this new album where it was only singing, people literally told me, dude, you're going to lose it. Every fan you've ever built that liked you for rapping is going to think you abandon them. They are going to jump off the train. You are going to get criticized. This record's either going to, it's not going to work. Man, fuck you.

This music means the world. to me. I put my soul in this. I put as much emotion to this music as any other music I've ever put in. This was the darkest, longest album I ever recorded. It took me a year to record this album. I mean, it was, I will drop the documentary one day about

the recording process of this album because I filmed every minute of it, and it was dark. This album got in some dark places. I knew, I wasn't worried. You can't, I'm not the guy you scare was saying, shit's not going to work. Shit wasn't supposed to work in the first fucking place. You know what I'm saying? Like, you can't

scare me with that. I'm going to run, not you, but anybody. It's like, I'm not labels, distributors when they're like, yo, or like people are like, oh, I don't know, it's a little riskier. I'm dropping a YouTube video today called Dead Man Walking. And I was like, I want to blow up a trailer. Spooky. It's dope. Wait till you see. I'll show it to you for you leave. It's so far. But it's like, you know, there was a lot of people who's like, I don't know, man, it's a little dark. It's a little of this. I'm like, man, I'm not, that's what it, that's what it needs. It's real. Like, I want to, I want to get real with. this shit, man. It's like, I'm not afraid of that shit, Will. It's like, if I don't get it,

I didn't think I was going to get it until this year anyways. This is a new thought. I think it's because I needed a new goal. If we're going to be honest, I think I looked around and was like, when they invited me to the grand old Opry, I was like, I manifested this. Like everything I said I wanted to do, I'm doing right now. I need new shit to do. I was like, I need new shit. It's like, you, dude, you helped me today inviting me to this. You don't know that. But in my heart, it was like, oh, good, I got something to do tomorrow. this is dope. I got to get up.

I can't let Will down. That's my boy. He wouldn't hit me if he didn't need me. You know what I'm saying? I was like, he wouldn't hit me last minute if he didn't need me to come in here and do this. You know what I'm saying? Like he didn't want to be in here doing it.

Oh, he has me up when he needs me. Yeah. No, no. No, no. No, you hit me up all the time, right? You hit me up all the time.

But in my mind, I'm thinking like, all right, Taylor couldn't make it. Mm-hmm. Will's fucking doesn't want to do a solo cast. You know what I'm saying? He's sitting there. he knows, you know, like, fuck it.

He knows it could help me too. He knows the album just came out a few weeks ago. He knows I secretly want to get on anyways, probably. I didn't think that. You know what I'm saying? I get his ass now. I don't think that. But it's like, you know, to me that shit helps, dog.

It's like, it's like purpose. So for me, when I started talking about Grammys, man, that's my new thing. Like, I'm going for it, dude. Like, I'm fixing to fucking get up there and look good in a tuxedo, dog. I'm going to invite you. You're welcome to be my guest. I'll fucking hand you the goddamn trophy.

You get something. I'm not saying I'm going to win one up. Hey, we'll make one up. I'll just hand you a Grammy. I'm okay with not even winning one. I'd like one. I just want to get there. That's the thing.

The start of your performance will just be me giving you the Grammy. It's just part of the performance. You know what I'm saying? No, that fires me up here and you say that. What I think we need to do is clip this whole thing for you, and that's what you need to listen to in the times where you're fucking down and low. Because when you're explaining that stuff, you're talking about why. You're talking about your why, right?

The whole start with why it was Simon. And you're just talking about like why it doesn't scare you and why you. and why you feel motivated. But yeah, that's what I was thinking when you were saying that shit. I'm like, this is what you need to be listening to, yourself saying this stuff. Because a lot of times when you get into the depressive state,

depression and stuff, you know, sometimes it could just be a lack of perspective and just the way you're talking to yourself. Right. Right? Because sometimes when you talk about your self-image or like identifying and stuff like that, then when I hear you say the awards and this and then, I'm like, oh man, what if he does? doesn't get it.

Like what, and that one day strikes where he's thinking about self-image and what he was tied up into. Not what you just went on right there with a TED talk. Well, you need to be listening to anytime you're feeling down because I thought, like, that's real. Are you a,

you a boxing fan? Yeah, more so back in the day than I am now. So Tyson Fury, right? Fury. Yeah. Story.

But Fury and Wilder is the only guy as I watch. Even me setting the new goals is kind of like what, you know, Tyson, public mental health advocate. He once got a, very much. 400-something pounds, quit boxing, became a raging drug addict alcoholic for a few years, lost all the weight and fought Deonté Wilder the first time.

That's a very true story. Right. Crazy story. But whenever my dude, George Lockhart, shout out to Lockhart, he's the greatest nutritionist on earth. He's the man. In every big fight that's happened in the last 10 years, George helped that dude cut weight. From Connor McGregor, you name it, right? George said that he was talking to Tyson, and Tyson's thing is what helps him with his depression is

he's always like he's made working out his anchor right like training is his thing like he sets fights up just to get out of his own funk so he don't get in the way of himself he's not fighting for money he's a hundred million he knows he has to train if he sets up a fight he knows that right so he's like he knows that like running boxing this is like a part of what keeps him going like duane johnson always references to gym right when you see his post all the when he's like, this is my, Dwight calls it to Iron Paradise. He's like, this is it.

This is, this is church for me. This is my whole life is anchored around these two hours a day. Fuck all the movies. Fuck all the fame. I have to come in here for these two hours and work this shit out. And to me that's crazy. You are way more self-disciplined to have your phone buzzing right now, Will. No, that wasn't.

I know. I thought of it was mine. I know. I was like, well, I wanted to. He never broke out contact with me with. I was going to silence that dang like I can't have to.

It's just buzzing. Meanwhile, Jack's back there. Hello? Yeah, I'm doing the boys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hit you when I leave. Yeah, he's talking right now. No, not Will it's jelly roll.

Yeah, yeah. All right, I'll tell him you said what's up. But yeah, I think that's kind of it. Oh, we're reading something. I like to read stuff. Ooh, this is the coolest one I've ever got to do. Yes. Yes, ladies and gentlemen.

Listen, check out Hooters.com forward slash barstool for all details. We are talking about the world famous favorite place of every man at some point in their life. Hooters.com forward slash barstool for details. I love how you said the forward slash too. It is a forward.

On point, dude. Did I fucking up? No, dude, you're on point. I was like, I'm so off today. It could have been a backslash. No. Fucking halfway seeing it. What do we got next, boys?

Dude, Tom Brady, like, I don't know, man. Do we all need to get on the fucking TB12 diet? Yeah. Like he... What is his diet? The TB12 method, dude. Look it up.

I don't know what it is fully. I haven't read the book yet. But this man is, like, defying what it means to last in the NFL. Like, granted, like, he's a quince. quarterback and stuff like that. But what is he, like, 47? That's the quote that said he could play until he was 50 or something like that. He said he wants to try to get there now to 50.

Yeah, that's the new, like, he changed his goals up. Jelly, what's crazy is he's, like, quietly having the best year of his career. This year of 47, bro. Yeah. It's. I think he's 47. I think he's got alien blood. Am I just out here young 47 just raining?

Yeah. Yeah. Forty four. He's 44. Hey, Hey. 47, best season of his career. Is he,

is he 44 or 47? 44. Okay. He's 44. Listen, man. Hey, I've made him sound like, yo, all right,

he's 44. It's all good. It's only 12 years older than me. Colin Cowherd said today on the radio that it was just, it's just kind of like the perfect storm. The NFL has kind of grown with Tom Brady and like rule changes and stuff like that, which has helped the quarterback, which has helped the receivers.

So he made statements like that. Not necessarily not. Tom Brady, but just... You can't knock him at this point because there's quarterbacks that's grown with him, like the Breeze, Rivers, like all them, right? Yeah.

I mean, he was talking about... Rafflesberger. Can we just talk about the head of hair he still has? Jesus. When you think about Breeze, I think about the opposite head of hair. You know what I'm saying? Like, I mean, dude, listen,

I'd kill for that airline. That dude's... He's got that TikTok hairline, that's for sure, dude. That dude's a decade older than me, and I look like I've been rowed hard and put away wet. And that dude looks like...

That dude is like, fucking totally do it's kind of kind of frustrating a little bit I think he's doing alien blood transfusions but there's no there's no knocking there's no knocking at anything that Tom Brady's done like okay he says this that like yeah it's just been the perfect storm

bro and he grew his reputation right like his reputation with the Patriots and all that stuff to have such credibility that he gets to have decisions with the team like where he goes like doing stuff off the field like, fuck, dude. You ever made him?

No, I haven't met him. Want him on the bus, though. We want him on the bus. Yo, yo, we're going to get Tom Brady on the bus. It's putting it in the universe right now. Yeah. Maybe he'll come on when he's 47, actually. That way we play this clip three years ago.

Well, yo, we thought you'd be 50 today. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, my gosh. I was yelling with such conviction a minute ago, too, man. I was sounding like old boy on the, what is it, Chris Bussard. Bussard with Taylor. The bills didn't have their left tackle.

Taylor won. Yelling, like, oh, how about that? They got their backup in. They don't have their pro bowler. That probably would have helped. I'm out here yelling, this man's 47. Oh, my goodness. Do you see this from AI the other day?

He said he's better at football. He said football was always his best sport? Yeah, dude, it's so, yeah. The highlights are pretty impressive. Yeah. Yeah, I'm saying Cap just because, like, everyone thinks like they had some sports they're better in.

Can't some people be not lying, though, you think? Yeah, but how do you, how do you... It's subjective. It's purely subjective. I remember one time my dad's buddy introduced me. Yeah, that's him. It looks a little husky. Maybe it's the shoulder pads,

but he doesn't look like, you know. What position is he playing in the NFL? In his clips, he's at QB. that wide receiver, he's like all over the place. You're trying to say, what is he regarded as as a point guard, like one of the, or shooting guard? Like one of the best of all time, right? Yeah, especially for his size.

They call him like one of the best pound for pound basketball players. Yeah, I don't think he gets that label in the NFL. Who said, fuck practice. Yeah. You're saying you'd lay out Alan Iverson. That's what he's saying, yeah. What's up? Are you saying you'd lay out?

Hang on, Lanham is saying on the... So you're saying you would lay out Alan Iverson if he's coming across the... If he's running a... drag route over the middle. Yeah, I'm not, yeah, I'm laying Alan Iverson out. Will Compton is better than Alan Iverson. No, no. Let that be the quote.

You should call this power. The thing in football is you always get got in football, dude. But so Alan Iverson is going to get you? I mean, if we're in the open field and he's got me and say he's a returner, he might have my number that day. Don't backpedal now. No, I'm not backpedaling. You're trying to make me say, like, I'm a better football player than Al Iverson.

I haven't seen him play eight years in the league. I know that. He's saying like if he's playing football. What do you guys want right now? No, we already got what we need. What we got next on the docket? We got the clips that'll get you. Oh, so you're a better football player.

Yeah, 100%. This podcast will be called Will's better than Allen Iverson. Hey, merch update. I do see that before we get into Spooktober. The shirts are rolling in. I saw somebody be like, why are somebody getting shirts before other people? They probably ordered them before you. Great answer.

Yeah, like, I know all the Raiders fans who ordered them on September 21st because a buddy of mine was sending me all the updates. He got his on Sunday. So I know all the people who ordered initially in that first week, that first two weeks, they're starting to get them. I had someone send me a video last night at like 2 a.m. It's a buddy of mine hammered. And he's like, Jack, where the fuck is my bus and shirt at?

I ordered it three weeks ago. That's three weeks. We're talking about the people that got them four weeks ago. I know, but I'm saying I'm starting to take some heat in the sideline. It's tough, man. We're taking a lot of straight bullets out there. I'm telling you, Barstool's pissed off about it. They've been on the warehouse.

It is, I can tell you, I can promise you. It is the top priority on their list because we've been getting body bag. Barstow wants us to push merch. And I've been telling them that we're scared to push it because everybody has to be getting their shirt. So I don't want to sit here and continue to push something when we're getting called frauds. We might need to pull up to the warehouse. People, yeah, people are coming out of our character right now.

To defend everybody, it is a supply chain nightmare in America. Oh, hey, talk to them. It is. No, it's true. I'm in the merch business myself. I sell merch. The same as plug. Talk to them, Jelly.

Jellyroll 615.com for all of your needs. No forward slashes. But, yeah, it is a supply chain nightmare, man. It is not easy. Like, like, remember last year I had the cool jackets and flannels and shit. I brought you all a bunch of shit up here. Yeah. Just like,

did it impossible to even get this year? It has been a fucking nightmare, man. So yeah, yeah, I do. Yep, yep. You know what? I bleached those flannels myself. Me, my daughter and my wife, we bleached like 400 flannels and then we put the...

Oh, you're about it. You're about the sweat equity. Yeah, yeah, yeah, man. I'm all about that. Like, yeah, man. I mean, I've always said it, man. If I'm going to be fat, I got to look good and smell good for you.

I can't be fat, stinky and ugly. You know what I'm saying? So, fucking, you know what I mean? I had to pick, wisely so I try to take my fashion pretty serious. There you go. Halloween. Halloween is fucking upon us and it's coming up this Sunday.

The greatest holiday on earth. Oh, yeah. Oh, for sure. Yeah? This is our shit. Fuck yeah. You are, I mean, you kind of walk around like a Halloween costume. Yeah, fuck Christmas.

Yeah, that's how I feel. Yeah. You didn't even have to put one on. Yeah. Yeah. Which one are you? Where are you? I'm right there.

I'm right there between. Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm right next to the goat. Yeah, we didn't even have. have to put a character on jelly just because my man's already got the... Throw jelly on there

with the face tattoos people are about this. Rank the scariest horror movie villains are top five horror films of all time. Oh, this is fucking fire. Hold on, can we go back to what we... Did you already talk about Halloween in the movie?

Did I miss it or something? Oh, no, we didn't talk about that. Can we talk about it? Brilliant movie. Yes, I saw it. Yes. Oh, my God. It's so good.

Speaking of him and Tom Brady, man, they're the same. I know I've already said that joke, so I won't repeat the joke. It's a great joke. He just keeps winning. Yeah. It doesn't matter how old he gets.

No, for sure. I saw the Halloween, the Michael Myers' Twitter handle, and they posted like a Michael Myers person, like in an old senior citizen home. Like, yo, it would still watch this movie if they kept coming out. And I think that's true, bro. Right. I'd watch the Michael Myers movies every year if they came out. Oh, dude, listen.

You know what it is? I explained it so I, who's the easiest thing I've ever done, but it was weirdly out of it expensive. We rented a theater. for the family. I got a big family. Hey, we did two.

Not the flex, but also flex a little bit. So we took, we took the whole family, right? We took the whole family. And Bailey had brought like four or five of her friends. First story I got to tell real quick is the coolest part of the story is

she had three girls and one little boy. Right. And when we're leaving the theater, my favorite part was the young man. I go, what do you think about the movie house? He goes, Mr. D. Ford,

I don't like scary movies. I was like, you're fucking genius. You're going to get far in life, young man. If three girls ever ask you to do anything, you say yes. Whether you like it or not, you are a smart kid. You know what I'm saying? Like, I just immediately admired him that he was just like three chicks,

asked him to do something. I'm fucking in. You know what I'm saying? I don't even like him. Literally like hates horror movies that went. But we go and when we left, I was explaining to my daughter, Bailey, I was like, and I might have this wrong because I'm butchering everything. But there's like two kinds of.

of horror movies, right? There's like thrillers and gore. And Halloween feeds my need for gore. Like there's never one time Michael kills somebody that I'm like, didn't see that coming. But he always kills him in a way that I'm like, didn't see that coming. He's always got a special move to where he's just banging them.

Which is crazy to me that people can't just escape that little. Yeah. He just can't escape the little like just getting their head crushed against the wall. Yeah, for sure. Like he's reaching through the wall. just fucking banging your head against the wall. Yeah. Like you'll just spin and get out of that, dude.

I guess I don't want to spoil any of the movie. No, we've already, we already spoiled it last week. So you're good. Yeah, but it's like there was so many moments like when he grabs a person's head through the broken window and stabs it through their neck. Yeah. Just like, that was creative. I was like, didn't see that one coming.

Like, he always does something that I'm just like, yeah, I wouldn't have thought he could kill him that way in that situation. Or all 30 of those people at the end of the movie. Yeah, yeah, which is creative. When he stands up. They all, they all got the. the lights around him, like there's some fight going on. Yeah.

The best part was how they all attacked it once in the beginning, but when he started killing, they all waited their turn to die. Yeah. Yes, bro. I was like, if y'all've never jumped nobody, that's how I know you're not from Antioch. You're all supposed to go together every time. You know what I'm saying? He can't hit everybody at one.

Yeah. Somebody's got to jump on the grenade. Somebody's going to have to run frontwards and get hit. But somebody, you know, it's like, everybody's just like, up, it's going to wait my 20 seconds until he gets over here to me. And then I'll be like, all right, it's me and you now. And then I'm going to get killed. Oh, yeah. It was everything I expected a Halloween movie to be.

Yeah, I thought it was amazing. Halloween ends next. Halloween ends comes out next October. Really? It's the final one. It's already in motion for real. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's why we've been ruining it.

Is it bringing Jamie Lee back or what? I love it when she's having them. It just feels like right. She had her entire like abdomen opened up and she was already walking right out of the fucking. You know it was crazy though how she's already out there fighting in the hospital. I thought it was cool. They didn't do the obvious. I like kept expecting her to pop up at the end.

you know what I mean? And I was like, it's like it was the obvious choice was like, all right, she's going to somehow get from the hospital to this house. But instead it was the daughter. You know what I'm saying? I was like, cool. It's like, all right. You know, anytime there's something that's like not super expected.

Yeah. I'm like, all right. The worst move was definitely those little groups breaking up and driving around town to try and find this man. Remember when the dad actually goes in his house and it's like, you guys stay here, honk the horn. Honk the horn. Honk the horn if you see something weird.

Yeah, like the weird shit's outside, my daughter. Yeah. They sat there for like, not even a minute. A gunshot goes off. My man's already gone. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I loved how much the granddaughter was a gangster.

Do it, motherfucker. I was like, all right. Fucking crazy bitch. This is great. It's everything I expected in this movie. You know, we had a good one. First time I've been to the movie theater since the shit. Yeah, the shit.

Yeah. Since they opened her up. Yeah, for sure. since we opened her. We're responsible for that, by the way. Open her. Yeah, we don't get enough credit for that. That's a tough little crackling of the voice right there.

It's not like Jack a little bit. Sorry, we can do it. Me and you will do the next song. Me, you and Shulsey. Where are you putting Mike Myers in the top five killers? Poor movie villains, man. Everybody start throwing stuff on the wall, and let's figure this out as a group.

Pennywise was the best. Pennywise was the best to me. The best? not because of a killer but just like as a character. Yeah, definitely a spooky little character. I thought that was a...

Hey, jigsaw. Pennywise. You living in the sewers. Jigsaw's underrated. You have my condo 4,800 a month. You're not moving like me. Yeah. No, jigsaw.

Jigsaw was fucking brutal. Yeah, Freddie. But there's other... This is horror movie villains. Like, there's more like Hannibal Lecter. What a psychopath. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

It's different. Especially when it feels real. Jigsaw was fucking sick and demented. Yeah. Jigsaw is fucked up, dude. Can we put the old man from Squid Game in this category? I was just thinking about that. Like, I feel like he's got to be like a horror movie.

Hang on now. You're spoiling a little bit there. People are not all people's watch the Squid game. Shit. Whoever hasn't watched it fucking. No way. That's where I draw the line. It's like the biggest fucking show.

Four days after Halloween comes out, I'm spoiling the ending. Yeah. About my hey, sweet game. Hold on now. People hadn't seen it. Yeah, that old motherfucker three for a loop. Yeah. Whenever he lost in the marble game and they didn't show it, I was like, that dude could still be alive.

Right. But you guys just look because I just went full out, spoiled it right there? Yeah. No, dude. But they didn't show him. I looked at my wife. I was like, yo, he could still be alive. They didn't show it.

Let me show you how different you and I are, as much as we're alike. At that moment, when you were like, he didn't die, I was crying. I was like in tears I was like so sad I was like man he was just doing

the right thing he picked the old man to show him he loved the old man and we're going to let the old man go out by himself then he had to cheat the old man I was so fucked up

I was like he's fucking it was the only part of the whole show that I got like emotional bro I kept that show I bought it hook line and sinker when he came back I was like no fucking way

I was like get the fuck out of here it was like dude and it was my favorite meme is when it's like this dude so the main character does this dude takes care about

about his daughter? Which did? The main character dude like the dude Listen, I'll butcher all these names. That's what I'm saying. Like a name like Ryan.

You're talking about the guy who was partnered with the old man? Yeah. He's the main character. Right. It's like he takes care about to his daughter because like at the end of the movie

I was just like you motherfucker. Like I found myself I think my favorite part of the show was. Oh dude. What the fuck? But it's like

I think my favorite part of the show was how the storyline was so good. I overlooked bad acting. I overlooked fucking the word shit. You know what I'm saying? I overlooked the dubovers, huh? Did you watch the dub or did you?

I watched the dub. I watched the dub and then I watched the subtitles to see where I lost. Okay. I've heard a lot of people who are playing about how bad the voiceover is. The voiceover is not that good. Yeah, it's not very good. I did it with the, I did it with the dub over later because I heard that.

And I still felt like the first couple episodes The acting was a little harsh Like the real annoying girl That was always You know like She just like her face was just over And the main character dude From the beginning with his mother

Like that first scene with his mother Was just so like gringy But the storyline was so good That I overlooked all of that Yeah the games had you fucked up Because you don't know By the Marvel game You're like all right

You need to get with a teammate And then you're fucking You think it's one thing And it's just, it was, it also was such a good story. There was moments I loved people in this movie and moments I hated the same person. Like his friend that was in there with him that he ended up at the final with. Yeah. Three different times I was like, this dude's a fucking piece of shit.

And two different times I was like, man, that dude's a good dude, man. He's really got his back. Like I was like, I was in. Dog, except for when his marble. Yeah. No, we won't go into that. We won't spoil that one. You don't have to watch that.

It was some fuck shit happening, Doc. No, that dude was, yeah, it was fucking. You all watch the, y'all watch Squid Game? I haven't seen it yet. Dude, it's worth six hours of your life. No shit. Are you feeling like I spoiled it for you? Like you can't watch it?

Oh, yeah, no, we fucked it up. It's a solid. We don't know anything, though. That's true. That's true. Yeah, until you start watching, you're like, that's exactly. You know, that motherfucker.

Yep, yep. I didn't think about it until I got here and realized that I had a joint in the front pocket. I smelled it driving here. And I was like, I guess I had one. I didn't blow it last night. All right. I just, that's how much I just woke up to get here.

I literally rolled out of bed, took a Zoom call with this, like, TV thing that I'm not supposed to talk about for like 30 minutes and then literally put on my clothes. that were sitting by the bed. And I was like, well, fuck it. That outfit looked decent. I was like, fucking,

they were on a ball cap. Just look in the mirror. Fucking showed up. Yeah. Just grab the hat and just put it on. It was like, yeah, it's way easier and combing my hair. You're trying to get me, huh? That's crazy, dude.

Shameless, shameless. Fuck. Shameless plug Sunday. How long does Pod been going? Yeah, baby. Yeah, baby. Thank God. Shameless plug Sunday, October 31st.

Jelly Roll, Chris Calicoe at the Caverns in Pelham, Tennessee. We've got a very limited amount of tickets left. If anybody wants to come out, spend Halloween with the Fat Man, we're all going to be dressed up, caverns, Pelham, Tennessee. We're playing inside of a cave. I don't know if you're familiar with this venue. We are playing inside of a cave. Is this on Sunday?

Yes, sir. Well, I'm doing Saturday and Sunday. Saturday's been sold out for a while. But that could be a spooktober. That could be your guys' weekend spooktober thing going on. Yep, that's our thing. So it's going to be big. It's going to be big.

Saturday's been sold out for about a month when we announced. I think there's like 100-something tickets left for a Sunday show. So we're excited. This is my first Halloween show. Halloween's such a sacred holiday to my family. So what do you do then? Outside of your show, what are you going to be doing for Halloween since it's such a sacred holiday?

Well, it would be just the show this year. But normally I don't do shows on Halloween because we dress up. I normally chase kids with chainsaws around the neighborhood. It's like I am that guy. like we take Halloween that serious. So what's, where's the passion gone? Well,

you know what it is? So Bailey is 13. And last year was the first year that I kind of got the, I kind of got the nudge. It hurt my heart, but it's just the cycle of life. I knew it was going to happen. Remember this is your parenting now, right?

Yeah. It hurt, you know, because it's like, that was our shit. Like, we're going to go trick or treat and then we're going to scare kids together. And Bailey was just kind of like, going with the homies.

I'm like, I'm too old. That's tough, man. Teenager now. So it's like, you're saying, you better start paying some fucking rent.

What you better start. You better start to do. You better contribute around this motherfucker then. But so I was like, well, I'm kind of losing that part of it, you know? And the reason I did it was really this.

They called and said, hey, we know you don't do Halloween show. They had no one of four or five years. They said, have you heard of the caverns in Pelham, Tennessee? I was like, You talk about that venue with the cave?

They were like, yeah, what do you think about Halloween weekend? Two shows. I was like, if there's a place that I think would be cool to do a show on Halloween, it's in a cave. I don't know if you've seen it will. No, I haven't. Can we pull up the, it's in a cave? This isn't a man-made cave.

That's a real cave. There's a risk that that shit falls and kills everything. Yeah. And that is fucking freaky. You know what I'm saying? Like, I mean, the stage is. Get one of the last 100 tickets for Spooktober. I mean, look how low the fucking.

the ceilings are you know what I'm saying my wife won't go she's so freaked out by it and I think it's the coolest shit ever you know what I'm saying yeah so it's like I'm excited about it so for me you should hire a few like you know like haunted houseworkers or something be dressed up oh dude listen we got big plans we got some shit that chainsaw alive and I'll tell you something else I'm doing it's different is I'm doing a different set both nights okay explain yeah so it's like the set because there's a lot of people that got double tickets to come spend a weekend and stay up there The set that, like the show that we do the first night Will be different to second night

There's songs I'll do the first night I won't do the second night Songs I do the second night I won't do the first night Even the songs I do that are the same We'll have a different order both nights The show will start and end different Completely different flow

Is there gonna be a little something extra on Halloween? Oh yeah man We're like I said we got plans to dress up both nights Different for both nights You can't give away any secrets? No, because the one I'll tell you when the camera's off Because the idea of how we start the first show

it's probably the coolest idea I've ever had to start a show, ever. I kind of don't want to even blow it for this. It's such a good idea. And I've done some, like, his, like, toot my own horn for a second. I do some cool shit at shows.

Did anybody here make it out to see the actual Riemann show? I see it on the live stream. I built a trailer park on stage, Wilcompton. I built a trailer park on the stage of the Riemann with an abandoned car and a refrigerator that worked on the stage of the Riemann

bug zapper outside the trailers. I mean, I built a set on the Riemann's day. The bug zappers, I saw the trailers. Yeah, the detail of everything we did was, I mean, spared not one dollar to think about everything through that I want. I mean, from bicycles to abandoned cars. Like, I wanted it to feel like a real trailer park. Street signs.

When you came to, I did it all the way to when you pulled into the front door of the rhyme and there was a big sign that said, welcome to Jelly Rolls Mobile Home Community, Trailer Park. And then when you went in and before you went to your seat in the main foryer, there was an Antioch Street sign from Antioch Pike and Bell Road. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like I just like made this super, I made an atmosphere at the Ryman.

You know what I mean? Yeah. I'm going to do that in this cave. Yeah, there we go. Look at this. You see, that's a trailer. Those are trailers up there. Behind me over there is a.

We can just, you guys are just right. We know we got a big three. It's the other two that are just debatable. Yeah. You know the big three were like the originals. Let us know in the comments. Yeah. I was a Jason guy before I was a Michael guy for the record. Yeah. Because I think, yeah, I think by default, me being Jason, I was like, oh, okay, I want to watch the Jason guy. But now you're into Michael Myers.

Oh, yeah, man. I mean, you know, I just, I love. What are your favorite candies? I feel like you can talk about candies now. All day long. I hadn't looked to see what, like, the new things they have this year for as far as, like, Halloween candies. But I'm hoping they make those, like, Reese's Take Five combinations. Have you seen those yet?

They got the Rees and the Take Five and they put them together? No. Is it kind of like the Fast Break? It is fucking fire. Dude, anything Reese makes us. fucking fire, bro. You, speaking of fucking candy, off subject,

we'll get right back to Halloween candy. But I was watching a Titan guy, and I think it was Derek. I think it was King Henry, had posted one time about this place called Sunny Hill Exotics. Are you familiar with this company? No.

So I think it's S-U-N-N-Hills Exotics? Yeah. So here's the thing about these people, right? They do candies from, like, other countries that, like, have the licensing rights to different things. So they make like, you see what I'm saying? Like, like crazy shit, right?

Like, yeah, like cinnamon bun Oreos, right? Dude, they. Hey, jelly roll knows of spots. This is it, dog. They fucking have these like sour blaster, fucking sourpatchers that are like cherry sourblasters that are fucking insane, dog.

It doesn't ask for a serious. I'm more of a sweet. Are you more of a sour candy or like the chocolates? Oh, dude, listen, the way my obesity set up is more. Yeah, the answer is yes. I'm more of a chocolate guy, dude. I live and die. I'm healthy now, but it's dark chocolate.

Dark chocolate peanut butter cups at Trader Joe's is a fucking cheat code. You know the Justin's Dark. chocolate peanut butter cups at whole foods are fired to you. I tell you something else, they once had a dark chocolate limited edition Butterfinger. And if they ever bring it back I love Butterfinger.

Oh yeah, for sure. Yeah, it is. It's the dark chocolate butterfinger, man. That's when you know you're eating right too when it's dark chocolate. Yeah, man. Dude, the chocolate aisle and Trader Joe's Swear to God. Yeah, I know. And then they're out the next week, so I stopped posting. because I'm sure...

You know what? We need to read a... I'm sure I'm influencing all the national to go to that spot. Trader Joe is a white bridge. Do you enjoy your haunted houses this season? Yeah. Loved them.

Each and every one of them. They're fucking awesome. When you get chased by the chainsaw at the end of it and you're screaming for your life, bloody murder, yeah. Went to a corn maze in Lincoln, Nebraska. Oh, yeah. God, I bet they got the best corn mazes.

Oh, yeah. It's like their whole shit. Yeah, corn. Yeah. Yeah. Oh He laughs about the funniest stuff, dude Damn

Thank you Oh man That'll be good for the trailer For sure Yeah Yeah Yeah But we can't get away

From the candies of Halloween I'm I'll go Kit Kat What did he say I'll go Kit Kat I don't know I said that was fun Who's a Kit Kat

Snickers Oh, yeah. I'm with the Reese's train. Anything they do. Pieces, cups. They keep talking like that, Tim. Look at me when you say that. Hold on the Reese's cup with the Reese's pieces in them.

The Reese's cup that have the Reese's pieces in them. Oh, man, stop it. Sometimes a watcham call it. We got a new one, but it's not a whatcham would call it. Hey, then Fast Rex are real, too. No, I thought it might have been something else, but I've seen something the other day they had a different name. It was like a what you'll call it thing.

But it was. So full disclosure. And the Easter egg Reese's. Oh, the Easter egg Reese's is the best. It's better than the pumpkin reases. And I'm a Halloween guy, but it's just got a little more peanut butter to it because it's a little bigger than the pumpkin reases. So because we travel,

we stop at fucking truck stops every night. So if you see like, you want to know what new candy's there, you watch fucking 18 stoners get off a bus with money with a per diem. Because you know everybody gets like a per diem every day. Yeah. And you'll just watch them just come in with bags. It's like, you see this shit?

They fucking cross the fucking butterfinger with a snicker. And you're just like, all right, whatever. You know, it's like, fuck. It's like being in prison when you get commissary every time the bus stops. Yeah, I heard that. Yeah. Gotta miss him days, man. I fucking hate that.

Just like fucking prison. Yeah. I was like, you know, like when you went to jail and I look around, I'm like, oh, it was just me. All right. Hey, hey, put some respect to my name. I got an MIP once. Sat in a jail cell for a night. What about you, Jack?

What's your candy, baby? Yeah, Reese's, man, peanut butter chocolate. But I really, those mini Reese's cups, the unwrapped you get like a little bag. It's over. Have you had the Trader Joe's ones? Yeah, I have. Those are solid.

But the pumpkin wreaths and the other one we're talking about, I'm not a big fan because I like the texture that the Reese's cups have the little edge where it's like that kind of crunch. Not a crunch, but it's harder. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like that perfect cookie where it just gets softer in the middle. Exactly.

I like the nerds gummy clusters. They're kind of new. They're fire. Yeah, they're like the small. They're like itty bitty nerds ropes. Shut the fuck up, dude. This is real. Nerds gummy clusters?

No, this is true. Yeah. It's like how they used to just do the nerd ropes. Now they just do little pieces of them. Fire. Jelly Rose like, oh, yeah, bubble. Yeah, bubble. But it's not just me, man.

You should see the bus, dude. Dog, hang on. Nerds fucking gummies. I swear, dude. It's one of those new candies. Yeah, it's like, two for four of Walgreens. Is that the deal of the week?

All right. The deal of the week. It's a pleasure. Thank you, man. I've enjoyed podcasting with you, man. We'll do our own. one day, okay? Now listen, I'm not here to shit on the deal of the week. I'm not here to be critical of this at all, but it was a little anti-climactic.

I anticipated him to turn me on to like a local spot I'd never heard of. I was like, I'm in. And he was like Applebee. He don't tune in, man. We're eating different stuff, different places. Yeah, last, last week it was Publix. See, he knows... No, the public sandwiches are fire, though. Now, he was talking about, what is it, $5 sushi? $5 sushi on Wednesday.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, I don't think I trust that. I don't think I trust that. JPMs are our random deal of the week guy. Yeah, no, I loved it. I think it was great. It also made me realize how much of an athlete you are. Why you said that?

Because I'm, you know, I'm so much huskier than you. I kind of look at you like, man, this guy. I was a lineback. I was like really successful at what he did. because you're a big guy, but you're not like, big guy. And then he sat down in your seat and I was like, Will's a big guy. This is a little fellow sitting next to me now.

I was like, dude, it was just like, Hey, don't let him disrespect you, man. No, I'm not being mean. No, no, I didn't mean that to be mean. I meant like, you know, it was just, it was just, it was a pretty tall fella out there. So, you know, it's just like, Will's got a little girth on him.

You know what I'm just saying? Pause. There's no pausing on this bus, too. Do we have any other, we're good, solid? You never told us your candy besides. That's the dark chocolate candy of Trader Joe's that you've been raving about. I'm with the boys. I'm with the Rieces.

I'm on the Rieces train for sure. I'm all about the Rieces, dude. I would love a sponsorship from Rises. No free shoutouts, Rieces. Who owns Rises? Is it a Mars candy? Probably Disney or something. Yeah.

Oh, it's a Hershey? All right. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, but that's by far. I'm a big chocolate guy. No, Hershey did everything right but the Hershey. fucking kind of backwards, right? Let's be honest, man.

Them kisses are kind of whack. True. Chocolate ones, they're not at. Yeah, the cookies and cream ones are a little sleepers. They had a cookies and cream, uh, Kit Kat from the Sunny Hills exotic place from like China. It was, oh, your Kit Kat guy. I'll get you backs. I got you, I got you, I got you Ligos.

Break me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar, dude. Yeah. Dude, I'm so glad to fucking be able to hang out with you again, man. This is awesome. Two hours of greatness, bro. dude it's like I was just sitting here thinking man this is like always good it's like always fun yeah we went about how long on the uh first part like 40 minutes yeah i think it's just cool because it never feels like we did a long one they're always good and uh i feel like they're always

i feel like they're always good and that's cool because normally you'd think it'd be like we've had some good ones you would think yeah you come on here and you have some like some big laughs yeah yeah You think we'd be do a duff, but not. Yeah, because when you went on with Erne and Taylor, like, you guys laughed a lot. I had a lot of foam all my honeymoon. Yeah, yeah, no, dude, it was, it was hilarious. I was more hungover that day than today, and that's hard to achieve. It seems like I'm a raging alcoholic, but you just always catch me on those days.

You know what I'm saying? I thought about that when I was out last night. I was at the fucking Joe Rogan and Dave Chappelle show pounding them. And I looked down and was like, oh, man, I want to do this. Something tells me Will's going to be like, can you do 10 a.m? And I was like, fuck. Because I'll never forget when Taylor was like, can you do Monday? I was like, yeah, for sure.

And he's like, I was like, any time afternoon. He was like, perfect. Noon works perfect. I was like, 1202 maybe. Afternoon worked better for me. And say noon on the nose button, motherfucker. You know what I'm saying? And I was like, it's going to be early.
