I was. You got that Z-71? I got the Z-71.

Now, I don't have the Silverado. I'm envious of the Silverado. I do have a Tahoe, Chevy Tahoe. Dependable, reliable. For the boys, for the brand, dependable, reliable. Just moved to Nashville. Could fit everything in there. God.

It's the best. Your moving truck took down the electricity for your street? Yeah. When you... For several neighbors. Um, so essentially small part of the street is controlled by one cable. I come in with a 28 foot or 28 foot long box drug. Nice flex.

Thank you. Professional movers that you guys help me supply. Thank you. Um, I think it took like 10 seconds and they backed up into this electrical cord. So it completely rips. Oh, gee. Live wire. Ripping around.

Like a fire hose. Oh, yeah. Crazy. And I got. get the call, they don't speak the best English. So they request that I call 911. I'm trying to explain to them what's going on, but they're giving it to me in broken English. I don't know really what's going on. So they're like, we'll send fire truck. We'll send cop cars. And next thing I know, I arrived to my new house and there's like 20 people out in the street.

Good time to meet your neighbors. Hey, nice to meet you guys. I'm Sherman. This is all my fault. everything that you see. How did that go? Were people pissed off? Are they all right? Shout out. No free shoutout. Am I doing that right?

Oh yeah. Okay. To my neighbor, Ramon. Awesome guy. Ramon. He was the one that got torn up the most. And he was super understanding.

He was like, they have insurance. I'll be okay. Like the wall got ripped up, apparently on the inside of his house. Exploded a mirror. No shit. Yeah.

When the court came out, I guess like the first outlet there was a mirror in front of it and it just like glass went everywhere. God, for those 10 seconds he was terrified. Terrified. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Sounds like Ramon needs to get a little more of a backbone though and kind of stand up for himself. Yeah. Well, he was mad with my movers. He was not mad at me. He realized that like it wasn't my fault. And I offered street tacos, cookies,

like I was hooking it up. Yeah. Dude, Ramon seems like he's doing a good job of channeling his anger in the right direction. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. We're happy everybody's okay. We're happy to have you in Nashville finally. Thank you guys.

Happy to be here. Sherman Young boys. So he's part of the squad. He's part of the team. Dude, a story about Shirm, the way we found him was he would just randomly send us DMs of videos over and over and over. And we would like, we hired like two people or something like that. And then those processes were like, what about this guy? Right.

Then we did a trial basis. Boy's been grinding his ass off for forever now. And finally got the call up. Finally got the call up really excited. shout out Taylor no free shout out for DMing me first when you shout out the boys

there is you don't have to say no free shoutouts the boys get free shoutouts so you shout out the boy it's just shout out Taylor shout out Taylor for hooking me up he was the first DM it really it was kind of nowhere

you guys were hiring for Stevens position the executive producer role that's how I found out about you guys so I just I love the brands I make all these videos for you guys and now we're here.

The level of creativity and chaos you put in your videos is insane. It is. You do a really good job. Well, thank you. You guys appreciate it. So that's the best part. That's the best part.

I love it. We're just having a moment. This is a nice deal. I hope everybody on the other side feels it too. Three grown men complimenting each other and being like, all right. All right. Yeah. Anyway.

And then people are like, where's jelly roll at? Yeah. We do. We have a loaded episode, jelly roll. We talk about his ascension, all the things that he's been up to, the success he's had since he dropped his album. last year, kind of like his the sophomore slump

that he's feeling at times? He's fearing. Oh yeah, you're right. Fearing. Because he's got 136 songs. Right. And he's got to now whittle it down to about 25, 26 for this next album that's supposed to come out. So his album is essentially done. He's just trying to figure out the best things. Right. And I think in sports, I guess

now we know in music. I don't know if it's acting, but any sort of entertainment, it always feels like there is something that qualifies as a sophomore slump. College, second year in the league type stuff for us. Especially when you're having the success that he's having. It's almost like, man, this next stuff I'm coming out with. Like, you almost can get in your own head as far as like feeling that expectation.

So we break all that stuff down. And it's a good old-fashioned boys podcast. We cover a lot of ground in this episode. A really cool part about that is Jelly Roll made this comment of 10 years overnight success. Because Jelly's been making music forever. He's been crushing. He's changed genres. He's been kind of doing anything and everything.

You go through Nashville five years ago. You go through Jelly Rule. Like, this dude is, you know, now he's gone from this. local kind of hero and now he's becoming global to a night we can't even comprehend where he's at literally people made an article because he changes socks every single day that's what we're getting at with jelly he's like we got to be a little careful some things we say however we did let it rip the entire time yeah um he's also on gary brekha he's on the health wave right now we get into that we talk about that the other j-roll because everybody cares about the boy everybody cares about the boy and

it was one of those things too before we got in this health kick you and i would talk and be like man I'm you worry about him because he does he goes hard in the paint he has a weird sleep schedule he'd come on the bus with a whole gallon of water and some lemons and be like I'm doing it boys and then you know you don't know what's coming from there yeah now I get to it with gary Breka he's doing his thing dude could not be more fired up I know the boy gets up every single day hits his sauna hits his cold tub yeah does his protocol did that 5k with two bears yeah which is awesome and he's saying he's going to try to smoke it next year yeah which is which is awesome I'm it's gonna be interesting to see someday a skinny Joe

roll. A little cow just a part of me that doesn't want to see a skinny jelly roll. I know. It's like when I think about that. Like trim some weight, but you got to stop somewhere. Yeah. Because you're jelly roll. Right. It's like Chris Farley. Like what if Chris Farley got skinny? Would he be funny? Probably not. Probably not. What if Shane lost weight? Would he be funny? Probably not. Shane is obese. You know what I'm saying? But he does, he does the, this is this. Yeah. Textbook. I know, I know the wind's blowing on my

shirt and I don't want people to see it. Yeah. Everyone's done that. You hit that right there. You kind of slouch up a little bit. That's the move. Get it out. You're like, oh, I'm feeling like it's going to grab my stomach a little bit.

Yeah, especially when it starts tucking under the belly a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the war. It's the war. We all have it. You, uh, you notice? I notice.

Got a little tan on you. You see that boy. Give me a late flex real quick. I just want to see them things. I want your lower body. You like that? Is a first round draft fit. I know you get a first round lower body and back.

I also, I know you're into, uh, your ass? No, I know you're in the tan line. I do like tail lines. Dude, dog, let's talk about... Hang on, hang on.

We're feeling good about the tan right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't got to bring up my hairy ass. Oh, you're right. God, damn. I just saw you pull it down and it was like, I could see plain skin, but I could also see long hairs

fighting for the life to pop back out. And I thought I was going to mention it, but I'm not going to mention what I'm going to talk about. I saw great your tan looks. Good, good, good. Because you look fantastic right now. Did that tan line do it for you?

It did. I'm a big tan line guy. I almost sent you a fully tuck. fully tucked or I tucked myself and just take like a mirror photo from the side and say, I know you love this shit. The fact that you didn't do that knows that's something wrong with her relationship because I would have not been my screensaver this morning. The shirt does look good too.

We were talking before the podcast started about colored shirts. I'm not a huge colored shirt guy, but I love the color. Yeah. I'm loving the color. And by the way, Father's Day is coming up. We have golf merch. We have a shitload, an assortment of Dad Hats, Girl Dad Hats. Get your old man something.

If you're a dad out there watching, shop for yourself if you have to. Send it to your wife. send it to your daughter, send it to your son, send it to your wife to be, you know, maybe your wife's pregnant. Like, hey, let her know, we need to be wearing this. When the baby's born. When the baby's born.

No question. Because, I mean, Gary, the last day to order this before Father's Day was yesterday, correct? You take a shot. You might still get it. And that's okay, because as being sons of fathers, if you're a son going to buy it for your father, it's a better late than never type of situation.

You want to just make sure he knows something. Father's Day comes around. Call him, hey, dad, I love you. Also, you should get excited because there's a gift right around the corner coming for it. Now there's anticipation. Now there's excitement. Now you're doing building blocks

to make everything a whole lot better in the future. And men too. As long as you know something's on the way you kind of doesn't matter. The day doesn't necessarily matter. It'll be Christmas. I bet hey I got something.

It'll be hitting here in the mail next week. Dude, what you just said got me ready for my shout-out, no free shout-out. Yeah. Should we do it? Yeah, I'm down to do it. I love the start if that's all right.

Yeah, absolutely. I think it is brought to us by sport clips. Is it bro? Yeah, the MVP's in. men's hair. Your hair may grow fast, but after going to Sport Clips hair, you'll wish it grew even faster. That's because Sport Clips has the best seats in hair. And that may or may not be because they happen to be right in front of TV playing sports all day long, every day. We know that watching sports while getting a haircut sure beats watching your reflection getting a haircut and potentially,

we all go through it, listening to your barber, project his stuff that goes on at home to you, which is why at Sport Clips. Every day is Clippers and Curveballs, High Tops and Hellmeries. At Sport Clips, you can check in with the pros in men's hair and totally check. out with pure uninterrupted relaxation so come watch an endless stream of sports on tv while getting an awesome haircut sport clips it is a game changer just like these shoutouts coming up shirm you're going to have to do one you're going to have to do one not right now uh shout out no free shout out to finding somebody a gift in plenty of time before their birthday because i am i'm not great at it i know when christmas comes around anytime a gift exchange is happening i think about it

And then my brain, it kind of just gets packed somewhere else. It's testosterone. Two days later. Testosterone is good for planning. Right. Okay. Two days later or two days before the event, it's like, holy shit, I got to get a gift. Now, my boy's birthday is in September, September 19th.

Oh, you got me a gift already? I know a gift I'm getting you. And I'm fired up about it. I saw it. And I was like, that's, I know Will Compton will love that. Hopefully it's the right size. We don't want to repeat of Christmas. Did you end up taking those back?

No, I don't know what I did. I think I just told Charle, I'm like, hey, you can rock the issue. She's like, I mean, I don't love Nebraska like you. I'm like, you'll love Nebraska. Yeah, you got to love Nebraska. It's good for Rue to see Charo and a Nebraska shirt. So when she looks back, she's like, oh, my parents love Nebraska. I need to go to Nebraska.

Yes, not Maryland. Not Maryland. Yeah. That's where Charles went. Yeah. Oh. I know. I hate it.

But they did better than us last year. So that was kind of tough at home. So shout out finding a gift in plenty of time to get that gift for. your boy. I love it. All right. I'm fired up. I can't wait to see the gift. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me come on, feel some space, fill some space. Make sure you're subscribed if you're watching this.

Everyone's hanging out, having a good time. Also, the shirt that he's wearing. We already talked about it. Father's Jay's right on the corner. Get that shirt, dude. Get it. Get three of them and just send them out. You'll be the coolest guy on the golf course. Have I? I think I have. Have I shouted out room being close to the elevator? Yes. I think that was last week. Yeah. Two weeks ago. I have a good one. Same size French fries. that bring the entire moment together

when you're diving in on some French fries at the very beginning, you're excited, right? Usually you like the, you like the, not too thick, but a little, I would say like a Burger King fry. I'd say Burger King fries over McDonald's fries, right? I had a little McDonald's on the drive home from Rosemary.

But when you're diving into French fries at the very start, it's just kind of like a free-for-all. You grab and go, you dip into ketchup, ketchup and mayonnaise for your boy. But when you start to get in, the middle or toward the end, you're really trying to find those few fries because you like, nobody eats one French fry at a time unless you celebrate Pride Month. But when you're getting toward the end, you're trying to grab a few fries.

And it's important that when you get a really short one and a really long one, it kind of doesn't jive. You kind of bite off half of the top one just so they're the right size so they dip in. So my shout out, no free shout out is when you get those, that handful of the same size French fries that you have a nice little dipping experience and it brings the entire moment together. God. That's great, Will.

Can I tell you something, though? Yeah, go ahead. Let's just talk about two French fries that are different sizes. Let's say one's this long and one is this long. Now, I'm going to show you if you just take the smaller French fry

and you put it up here. For sure. Now you can dip and that experience is the same. I love your shout-up because there's a small victory in that. Like when you see a screensaver and it's doing the little bouncing thing

and it hits the corner of them, what a moment. Yeah. And you find two French fires are the same size. You don't have to. to do that little move one less step to get in your mouth. But you don't have to like, yeah, you can switch the size and kind of put them together,

but you don't have to use two hands. You don't have to sit there and look at it and be like, all right, like, let's get these on the same wavelength. You just grab and go. Yeah. Something about that. It's like the little things, bro. It's the little things you appreciate.

And that's something that I appreciate it or a French fry. Now. Can Burger King fries over McDonald fries? 1,000 percent. Can I see every day of the week of Burger King fries? Twice on Sunday. I have not been to burger king fries. since I was a child.

I think Wendy's fries range beer here. Show me some Wendy's fries. You could be right. You could be right. Look at those. Look at those at Burger King. Burger King.

The picture is never the same. McDonald's fries. McDonald's fries are overrated, I guess. I didn't know that they are that beloved. But I don't think McDonald's, you don't go to McDonald's or the French fries. I would disagree. I've definitely gone to McDonald's

and gotten French fries and a Coke and that's it. That's it? I think people are going off right now in the comments being like, I fuck with comp. Like, it's, it's Burger King fries. They probably also celebrate Pride Month. Burger King fries over McDonald's fries. All right.

Okay. Burger King fries. Burger King fries. Or Burger King fries. Burger King fries. Buckle up, Will. Drop him. If you have enough Burger King fries, I don't know if anyone else has experienced this,

there's like a layer of grease on the roof of your mouth. That's the only place I've ever experienced that. Next time you go, see if I experience it. And I do want to make one thing clear. I'm talking, when I was referring, and now I am pro Burger King Fries over McDonald's, I will be straight and stand on that hill.

But also, it was the type of fry. Like to me, McDonald's is too skinny, it's too scrawny, built a lot like Coop. Coop's got a sleeper build and you know that. He does have a sleeper build.

And every now and then you get a decent fry for McDonald's when it's a little longer. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. But overall, they're too scrawny. They're not. they're not what you want

they're not what you want from a french fry I don't really have a dog in this fight because like I said I haven't been to Burger King in forever so I can't compare you a french fry guy I like french fries but the basic french fries I don't get I don't get hot and bother when I see a basic skinny french fry for me it's the steak fry

it's the waffle fry it's the curly fries those are the exotic fries are for me what makes me go okay I'm gonna dive into this situation even ketchup and fries in general I'm just kind of like now you add ranch you switch out the ketchup in the ranch. Now all of a sudden,

I'm eating those fries until that ranch is essentially gone. But when you start stepping up the levels of fries, that's when I have now entered the chat. Right, right. Curly waffle, I think we can all agree those. I think waffles out there.

Without putting a lot of thought into it, waffles is number one. Curly's competes. Curly's up there, but I like waffle because there's so much base. Take it easy. To be able to fucking scoop whatever sauce you want. Because you guys know me,

big sauce guy. I love my sauces. Yeah. But I love it when it's, the the waffle the when you got the fucking waffle and then you're able to do that and then shove the whole thing in your mouth

and worry about choking for a minute but then all of a sudden you can chew enough throat to be like I'm safe right now yeah that's the thrill you're looking for you take a good waffle fry from chick filet and you're just fighting the corners of the sauce trying to scoop it up on the fry yes but that's when you think to yourself I wish I had a skinny fry

because that's when you get those hard to reach corners I never think I wish I had a shoestring fry steak and shake does they get sneaky but that's like you have to grab a pile of them and they just fucking shove it right and that is where they need to be the same size no the steak and shake fries look at it look you see my hand like that's what you're grabbing when you're grabbing that's exactly the hand like when you're grabbing all them skinny fries that's how you're like grabbing them and hoping they're all the same size are not you start to push a few down to make sure they're same size and then then they're like scrawny and short to where then your finger kind of touches the

catch up and you're just like what do like get a better fry you know what you do in that situation you take the whole thing and then for sure take that with you yeah no survivors yeah anyway that's my shout out no free shout out wow

uh Mitch can't wait to hear the excitement in his voice here yeah well yeah before you go yeah my my shout of no free shout out this week goes to uh just going home I went home because we had we had the week off I was able to go back up to

PA just kind of see the boys see the boys like all two of them that I have back there but just hang out with the family golf a little bit yes my my family dog just really have no responsibilities and just kind of go out to dinner and have my meal paid for just kind of just kind of veg out a little bit just hang out a little bit and it's always nice seeing the family always nice seeing like just driving the back roads you have because you you know those roads like the back of your hand you can maybe go a little bit fast around the corner because you know what's coming but yeah just shout out shout out yeah going back home didn't take it and let mom take care of you for a little bit yeah 100% go back to being a kid sleeping as long as you want

don't do your own laundry yeah exactly but like I mean I only got like a twin bed back home and I'm I got a king here so it kind of sucks the sleeping part but everything else like just just being home shout out being home love nice that's good Still lacked enthusiasm in the voice. I think it's just because I have a deep voice. All right, man. Don't flex on that. Go ahead.

Also on the note of the french fries, McDonald's has a patent on the kind of potato they use. So they literally the only person on planet Earth that can make the specific French fries. I think they're safe that nobody will come after that patent. Burger King fries are softened. No one's going to come after the McDonald's French fry and say that's what we need to do. Just wait until we look at the comments and see how wrong you are.

are in this argument. We'll see. We will. We will see. We will see. We will see. We will see. And structurally the integrity of them falls apart immediately.

You don't even know what you're saying. Yes. You're just trying to start throwing words together. You already see that little that curve in it. It's already fallen sideways. Okay. It's a little soft. They're limp dick fries.

They are. Okay. But anyways, my shout out. No, shout out goes to Korean barbecue. Oh. I just had my first like real experience in Korean barbecue this week. and it was phenomenal. It's so much fun.

You get like the big cooking experience and you don't have to do any of the work. I don't know if that's how it goes. Have you been to a Korean barbecue spot where you actually are the one placing on the grill or do they cook it for you? You hand it to them and they do it. Yeah, like the one I went to,

they were putting it on the grill in front of us and like getting it. What was it called? This was out in California. I have no idea. But it was awesome. And just seeing all the meat. California?

Seeing all the meat, we had like 10 people, so we just get like 10 trays of just raw meat. And they put it out there and you're like, damn, what cut is that? What is this? They just start throwing it on. And next thing you know, you're just eating for hours. And so shout out to Korean barbecue. Great experience. And definitely need to check out some places in Nashville if they have them.

So shout out Korean barbecue. Dude, there was a place we'd go to as a kid all the time. That was that exact setup. And it was big like in the west area, west part of the country where it was all, like you said, raw meats everywhere. vegetables, your noodles, you pick them, you pick your sauces, everything. They have this giant ass plate. They toss it on there and cook it for you. What an experience.

Mongolian barbecue is what it was called. Oh. Do you have blue and boom for me? I've had Mongolian grill. It's in Nebraska and it is gas. We put everything in the bowl and give it to them. Yes. And you get a little crazy with the sauce too.

You just try a random shit. Yeah. Did you say Genghis? No, I haven't been there. Mongolian grill. Oh, oh. Got you. Got you.

Mine's in the same bin, kind of barbecue, but it's barbecue in the summer and having those smells, like your neighbor's barbecuing. Been taking the dogs out on walks. You see the smoke from far away and you're like, oh man, I hope that smells good. And as you're getting closer, you're like, yeah, they're killing it. I want to jump the fence. I want to get back there. Let me go say what's up. Oh, yeah, for sure.

I love it. Haven't yet. But I'll suck up. Yeah. Baby steps. Baby steps. I don't want to come in too hot. No doubt.

You already kind of did come and do it. You don't want to ruin their power and they'd be like, hey, can you make me some dinner? Right. Yeah. Oh, by the way, make me some food. You've emmoed me for your, you know, electricity going out, yada, yada. I did get an electrician through that, by the way. Forgot to add that in there.

Nice. What a win. Big win. Silver linings playbook, dude. I love it. Gee, did you do one? Not yet. Let's go, baby.

My shout out. No free shout out is going to go to. Two things tied together into one. For Taylor hooking me up with Joe at the Red Rock, they are the absolute best. And the real shoutout is going to the sphere in Las Vegas. Go. It's all I really have to say. It is fucking insane.

Like, they got to figure out how to put one of those in every city. It's like, next to like outdoor, like the biggest show at a festival, it is like the best experience you could. like ever experience. You hear that cities? Put a $3 billion sphere in all of your cities. Yeah. Yeah. We need it now.

I'll, yeah, whatever we got to do. Some of the videos you were sending me were insane. Yeah. Just everywhere you look. Imagine being on mushrooms or acid. I can tell you.

Or any hallucinic. I'll tell you. Insane. Yes, sir. Good man. Yeah. Good man. That is why.

Everyone go. If you go DM me, I'll probably go with you again. Because it was that fun of. Good. Yeah. And I would recommend at least two nights because you don't want it to end. Red Rock is the best.

You never want to leave ever. Yeah, I was talking about the sphere. It is awesome. Good shout out and their free shoutouts across the board. Will you hooked up everybody out with the fries a little bit, but it's what we need. Yeah, I think people jive with that shout out. Yeah, I got to go try some Bird King fries. I need to figure out what's really going on.

Something you need to go. Yeah, sure. Yeah. Is it that good other than the number one fry out there? No, it's just when people talk about, no, when, when, you do a fry contest. Don't let them get you. I see you over there looking at them. That's white noise.

That's peanut gallery. You're talking to me right now. Yeah. Chick-filet is the best fry in my opinion. Yeah, but they're waffle fries, right? Arby's has great fries too because curly. Arbys does hit. What about the basic fry?

The basic, when you think of a basic fry in your head, that fry. You're putting Bird King 1? What's Wendy's fries? No, I don't know. Wendy's fries? Wendy's does it. Wendy's. does hit really hard.

Bacon ate over cheese. Come on, kid. I can't say I went to Wendy's a whole lot. Yeah, those look like great fries. Yeah, they have a little thickness to them too. Yeah, those look like great fries. Checkers, checkers or rallies, those fries? I don't think I've ever heard.

Those really? I'm up there. Look at those, bro. Oh, yeah. Those things do look nuts. Dude, they're so fucking good. Holy shit. What about Innaught?

Garbage. No. Inna fries are bad. Yeah, they're kind of like plain potato. Yeah, like an unflavored McDonald's fry. Yeah. It's the freshest fry. It's the freshest fry. But still not that great.

It's the freshest fry. Yeah. It's the freshest fry. Still goes in oil. No question. Shout out Will Pales, by the way. He is married to the girl whose father has the right to make McDonald's potatoes in Montana. Oh, yeah?

Yeah. played with him for a year. Nice. Yeah. Anyway, onward. What should we hit? Should we? Oh, surviving bar stool.

Yeah, dude. The boys are committed to surviving barstool. It seems like a, I mean, this is a superstar list. It's going to be awesome. I heard Dave talking on the on name show, too. Like, they're trying to pitch it to Netflix. Oh, for real? Yeah.

Like, he's like, there's no, he's like, this might sound crazy, but we should have this thing on, like, on Netflix. Something, a massive plastic. like a Netflix. That would be awesome. That would be all time. Sounds like there's going to be 24, too, 24 contestants. Which I want to say, the one that I did was 16 maybe. Also, it's much bigger.

16, 14, 16, something like that. It's going to be awesome. Watching your show for a little bit, it was just seeing the game within the game, the strategy everyone's going. I can't wait for the big part. I think I'm truly going to watch the actual survivor. Yeah, it's kind of hard to, there's, I mean, there's a lot of squads a lot of duos bussams in there you got chicklets you got wallow and gilly

you got who else uh bevaron yeah pat bevon ron i saw arian foster he's now committed to it a lot of duos going in yeah it's just about you got to find numbers early dan riko jerry i dave's doing it again yeah i don't know pf i don't know if i don't know if i've seen pft i know big cat is how is this i don't think i've seen fights i don't think i've seen fights i don't know the entire list right now but it's going to be fun that would be elite if like a netflix grabbed it that would be elite it's going to be so massive like i know a lot of people bought the the uh the one that they had to take down off youtube and put behind the paywall i don't know if this one's going to be behind a paywall i would assume not yeah even if it's not on like a major like

a network like netflix if it's just on youtube it's going to be awesome right if it can pass all the all the stuff like the flags and shit like that it's kind of well kirkman has not on it right I think Kirk is. He is? Yeah, I think Kirk is somebody who's going to be on his love. Because I've said I want to experience one of those blowouts. I want to see. I don't want anything from his army or whatever the fuck he calls his minifans.

I want to see it. I kind of want to be a part of it, but like just catch a couple strays. I'm not trying to be like the main vocal point. Yeah. I think Kirk's got a shot. I think everybody's got a shot. Everyone's got a shot. Hey, when the game's played, everyone's got a shot.

When the game starts, you just don't, you have no clue because they're going to break it up in the teams. It's like everybody can play these games. beforehand but nothing will matter until teams are decided and then you kind of know like you're trying to figure out who's who in the zoo yeah who's going to be allied who's not like dude it's so fun god i can't wait it'll be a good time man that is going to be awesome uh speaking of things in the future doing my best to learn from my mistakes june first through july 1st through july 14th i will not be at the shop i'll be in canada with my family Okay.

I will be in Canada with my family July 1st to July 14th. So I will not be doing intros. Hopefully we had a couple interviews done. We'll be solid. Yeah. We'll be in a good place. Announcement, Taylor's leaving again. But I'm telling you about it this time.

So it's all good. It's all good this time, right, guys? Please tell me it's all right. Should we, uh, some current TV? I saw your tweet. You're big in the suits right now. Yeah. You're in like, what, four seasons in a couple weeks?

Yeah, I'm on season four episode one right now. And you guys saw my thing. It's Harvey's one. Dana's two. Donna's two. And then, yeah, Dana. And then who was my third? Oh, Lewis.

And then I saw Honorable mention Trevor. Yeah, because I kind of like Trevor, that lawyer. That's a fuck boy who just like randomly comes in and tries to ruin Harvey's life. Because he's just a killer. But I do, I couldn't put him in there because he's not more like, he's not like a mainstay on the show. but I do enjoy when he's around. I'm like, oh, shit, it's going to get stirred up. You're not a fan of Mike right now.

Something I don't like Mike. I just think Mike is like him and his empathy and all that. Like, you're in a dog eat dog, dog shark world. Like you've got to have a little bit more of that. Like you can still have the empathy, but pick and choose the right time to have the empathy. If you're going to be a lawyer and you're working for this law firm, you've got to work for your clients. And that's it. What he's doing now, you got to work for those people and then try to do as good as possible around those edges.

But don't jump out of the way. Like, you've got a beautiful brain that can remember absolutely. everything you should be a billionaire in two years he's also got a great heart he's got a great heart no doubt he's had a lot of trauma in his life 11 years old loses both his parents to a drunk driver yeah so it's a bit of a deal i get it what i don't like is mike and rachel's relationship it is so fucking annoying to me the it's like it feels like a soap i don't every time they pop up the i'm like you need a love interest you need a love interest yeah but i like the love interest when uh harvey and scotty or harvey and somebody else and there's all like like

Lewis and his cat. I enjoy that. That's a love interest. Lewis and the girl that was a headhunting for Harvard. I like that. That was funny to me. But with Rachel and Mike, Mike does one thing.

Rachel gets mad about everything. Rachel does something. Then Mike gets really mad and they make up. It's just like, it's a hamster wheel. It's a hamster wheel on that. And that to me, I'm just like,

I get, it's a little, I'm a little over it. Buckle up. But Donna is number one, number one girl in that show. Yeah. She's a fucking rock star.

Yeah, she is. Harvey started to lose himself a little bit in season three, straight across those lines a little bit. You're thinking, oh man, is it finally over him, finds himself back, does the right thing eventually. It's like one of those things, man, you're just like, then you were telling me when I started watching show, hey, it gets a little bit redundant.

And I can feel that coming a little bit, but they do a great job of kind of having the same thing happening with different storylines. For sure, yeah. They do a good job of that. So I enjoy the show quite a bit. Yeah. It makes me want to buy a three suit.

It's awesome. Yeah, makes you want to buy a suit, live in New York and an apartment. I'm watching Jurassic World Chaos Theory Is that the cartoon? Yeah I put that on for Willow Two days ago

Yeah And I mean it is part of the kids genre Yeah but it's definitely not for three year olds Oh yeah there's some There's some shit that goes on Yeah I put up for five minutes ago Is this for big kids?

And she's like no no We can watch this I was like all right Let's try watching a long I was like we're gonna turn this off Then the velociraptor kills the father Yeah Yeah well I just

The only scene I saw was like The two people with like the triceratops and then the black guy comes and he like calms it down like Chris Pratt does in the actual Jurassic Parks. Oh, you're talking about very first episode. A very first episode. That's where I'm at. And then all of a sudden of a lost reptor comes out of nowhere.

I'm like, okay, we're done. That's it. That was a first scene. It was the first scene of the show. I was out of there and you didn't get off, get out. Yeah. I'm into it. I love all things dinosaurs, man.

I'm a big Jurassic Park, Jurassic World. Just fiend, bro. And I saw that pop up on the timeline. I was like, I have to watch this. Try every day. He's like, so because we're also watching the bear like the bear together on who's the bear it's phenomenal it's a cat from uh lip gallager yeah from iron claw one of the brothers lip galliger from

shameless yeah yeah yeah white is his government name Jeremy helen white the trailer for the new bear for bear season three is coming out or just came out that's awesome also fired up for the boys i think that kicks back off this this month right yeah the boys I'm ready for that. But to kill time right now, it's, I'm Jurassic World Chaos Theory. Have you all watched Tires?

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Bro. I didn't know if y'all talked about it yet or not, but we have not. We should definitely be shouting at the boy Shane and that whole squad. The whole squad.

Tommy texted the other day, I was like, bro, I love seeing you in tires. Like, you look so fucking jack. When they pop in, it's just chaos.

Yeah, it's just wild. Yeah. Him and Schultz just ripping in there. Yeah. Dude, it is awesome. It's so good.

It's a really good show. It's a really good show. Yeah, it's just perfect. All of them do a great job. They do. They do. What's his name? Chubby dude.

Oh, Stavvy? Stavvy. So fucking hilarious. And he's always eating something in the show? Always. You see his post? Yeah. About how he was Brad Pitt from Oceans.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just always eating. Dude, that is a great show. Yeah, I mean, you knew it was going to be good when the day before it even came out. And Netflix was like, hey, we're doing the season two, by the way. Yeah. Got to. Yeah.

Francis crushes it Francis is the second episode The over the show is great Overall full point kettle bells aren't gonna lift themselves Then we tuck ourselves I do ice that sauna's workout Grounding Yeah all before 7 a.m.

All before 7 a.m. It is it's all time You can tell they're like trying not to laugh When he's on it feels like Francis is holding back like A huge laugh I bet they had so much fun making that Oh yeah

Yeah he knows where we're fine this. Yeah. Can't beg. You know what I mean? Do I think there's a role for me somewhere in there? Absolutely. No question. No question. I mean, nice, quick little cameo. Just be a disgruntled person that's trying to buy something. Yeah. We could do that. I might just send, I might just send Shane a video on just my pitch for like, hey, here's the character. Here's the scene. We think. But it's sick, too, because I like flying I'll see people watching it on their iPad like I just feel like everybody is everybody is getting on board with tires

If you want to cheat and go out the night before Go ahead and do that But I like to put all the pressure on me Come game day. Perform day up Yeah yeah yeah yeah Perform day up Who needs prepared dude fuck that

His question from Stooley memes Are you a plan every detail vacation guy Or figure it out when you get there kind of guy We think we can definitely guess What are you? Figure it out when I get there 100%. There's probably one or two things I really want to do X, Y, and Z.

But that's it. I think some planning is good. Because I think I'm more of a figure it out when you get there. Then when you get there and you're trying to figure it out, you're kind of just thinking like, hey, next time we do this, we should have a little bit more of a plan. It's always good to have an idea. Hit the Google, rip around a little bit. What is there to do around there? Maybe talk to some friends, put out a tweet.

Other than that, like, to have an itinerary. That is not what I'm interested in when it comes to vacation. Some, like, loose structure of like, today's going to be a beach day. today we're going to do an excursion tomorrow, this day, that day. We're going to go out. Dinner spots. You got to get some reservations sometimes.

You've got to rip those things out. That's what I'm the worst about. Yeah. It'll be like 4 o'clock, but you want to get dinner? It's like, oh, we're all full until 9.30. It's like, well, the hot dog stand it is for the family. Yeah.

That's what we're doing. That is a tough deal. But yeah, I think there should be like a main theme each day of what you're going to do. But other than that, that time in between. Like, we don't need an 830 to 930 to 930 is this, then 945. I hate that. I don't want to go on vacation with people like that Unless you have kids

You have kids I think you got to plan around You got nap times You got bed times and shit like that So you got to have somewhat of a little bit of structure Like hey We'll probably be down for this long If we want to get dinner

And this place doesn't have reservations We're going to want to go there early Kind of hit in between 5 and 530 It's amazing how much your life opens up Once your kid gets out of the nap phase Then you just got We gotta go to bed at a certain time And when they wake up

They kind of just wake you up I'm going to be upset when nap time's over. I think that's great. You're a big nap guy. Well, not that, but you just get a break too. No,

because when they get older, they're now like functioning and moving. You have a second one coming. That one gets a little bit older. You need a break at any point in the day. Hey, you guys go play for 10 minutes. And they just go and rip.

My kids, finding a little time to myself. Hey, guys, go upstairs and go rip around for a little bit. Got a little camera up there. They're playing. Your old man's got to binge suits.

Yeah. Yeah. I got to watch shoes. It has been tough, man, during the day when they're like, dad, let's play.

And I'm like, dude, I really don't want to. I'm much rather than you. It's tough. But I do. Most of the time. Sometimes I do sneak away a little bit.

Yeah. Because I am addicted. That's my ADD. I got to like, when I get focused on something, it doesn't stop until it's over. Yeah. Yeah,

for sure. Talking about views and stuff as well. You get, you get tunnel vision on like, absolutely, trying to figure stuff out. Yeah, could it be,

conspiracy theories? Could it be this conspiracy theory? Yeah. It's like, okay, my man is so far down a rabbit hole. It's fun. Is it not a little fun? A little stressful on my part. Oh, it doesn't need to be stressful.

You know, you know me long enough. It's a great of salt there's a day every day. Where's the water? So, yeah, you can, you can, there's time to be both. You can not have a plan at all. You can have a lot of planning or you can have a little bit of planning. Is there anybody who is a lot of planning guy on vacation on this bus? I would say I'm more, uh, there needs to be some kind of plan than more of like, let's not have a plan.

Right. Right. I want to know what we're doing on certain days. I don't want to go to where we go, hey, what's everybody feeling? I hate when it's like, what are we all feeling? Because everybody has a different vibe. Especially with large groups. Yeah.

You get in large groups like, what does everybody want? And then you can tell like two or three people don't want what the majority wants. And it's like, feel kind of bad for them. Really, it's better to make a decision. Yeah. Like our families came. And so each day we're like, hey, we're going to be doing this on these days. You can join us.

You can not join us, but don't be surprised when we're not around. Type of thing. you know what I mean it's a power move well it's kind of like you want to set the expectation no doubt because you don't want to sit up in the morning like hey if we're going to walk down to the coffee shop like hey dad we're probably we're probably going to walk down there around 8 a.m so you need to be up and ready you're not and then you come down and like hey where'd you guys go we're at the coffee shop you know where we're at told you last night and if it doesn't happen it'll I'll build I'll build up a frustration of my head because number one I didn't set the expectation and then

when he's not up I'm like why isn't grandpa like wanting to walk down and do something a little bit different. He can sleep anytime. You want to be up and going. So it's a fun guy to go on vacation. You'll have you'll have that in your head. I think I'm a great time. I'm just saying. I'm just saying like I think you just got to set expectations. I always JP was here right now.

Just the grumpiness kind of coming out in you. I think it's more of just like there's principles that I stand on with it. Yeah, I get it. You know what I'm saying? No, I know what you're saying. You know what I'm fucking talking about? You got lay down the fucking groundwork. You're loud and clear, brother. Let's hit the next question. All right.

This one is for the boys in the back. What is your, what's the best and worst part about working with Taylor and Will? Go ahead, Sherm. Sherm popping in a couple of Lucy's. Oh, oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. This one comes from Pat Reasy,

at Pat N-E-B-Z. Okay, so best part on my first day, on official first day, because official first day is next week. week. Best part, I got a ton of free stuff, which was awesome. I showered with Don dish soap this morning. Okay.

We haven't fully unpacked yet. You're skin. Hell yeah, dude. So since they're part of the brand, I just say shout out, Duke Cannon. Shout out, no free shout out, Duke Cannon. Okay. Shout out, no free shout out, due canon. Now I have soap for my shower.

That's best part so far. Worst part. Nice. Worst part, I'm easily the shortest guy in the office. I mean, it's huge around here. I knew Taylor would be tall, but like everybody saw. I mean, y'all all have several inches off me. You being 5-7 really threw me for a loop.

Yeah. That was a wild deal. Well, 5-7 on a good day. Like, if I'm wearing the air maxes, 5-7. We'll get a stool. We'll get a stool for each section. Really, we were, you wanted a coffee, and I had to essentially press the button on top for you because you didn't know what we were pressing. I closed the cure egg, and I'm sitting there, I'm like, hey, did I do I,

do it wrong? I'm looking at just blinking waiting for me to turn it on. He tiptoes. I go, hey, status report. What's up there, Taylor? He goes, a button that you have to press here. Yeah, we got you bow. We got you dialed in.

Mitch, best and worst part. Best part, that you guys are like easily the best bosses I've ever had in the sense of like there's no, yes, there's pressure, but it's not like you have to be like buttoned up around you. Like you can kind of be relaxed. You can just kind of chill and like you guys are just one of the boys. worst part is sometimes your communication skills are not the best sometimes you're hard to get in touch with or if we need something to like we need your input on we know you guys are on your phones because you're tweeting and we'll text you and you guys have tweeted but you haven't responded to our text so it's like we know you're on your phone we know you probably saw the text be like I just I'm just not going to respond this is a this is a this is a this is a very able to of a like a speak for yourself because I know when Mitch and I communicate he probably has a crippling anxiety

when he has to write stuff so when he needs my input it's because he's all of his confidence for executing his role isn't there and he needs me to chime in and let him know what he needs to do yes but I'm I'm also talking about am I the only one who's going to answer it no everybody's got to answer everyone's going to answer everyone's going to answer it but no he's not he It's just like when it comes to like group things. I know I know you know that I am in my head so much. Yes. Oh, brother.

When you say we all, it's like, okay, I can't wait to just go with Mitch, talk about our one-on-ones with each other. When I have to reach out to you, you know I'm in my head already. But like when it comes like a group consensus, like if it's something that we're want to do with the pod or something like an intro or something, that's when it's like, okay, we need your input here. Yeah, we read our assessments. It's definitely a theme.

Our communication skills. Communication is key. Communication and being here. Yeah. Best thing I can publicly rip you guys on the internet and it only like helps my job sometimes, which is fun because in a normal job, like I'm fired. So to me, I think that's fun. And you guys are good sports about it.

Like y'all are great about taking shots and then, you know, having thick skin and being able to turn it around and being like, well, you know, you're also a fucking idiot. So that's fun for me. Worst part, I don't have like a specific thing. Yeah, you guys are the best. If I think of something, I will say it. I'm not just like trying to dodge. You know, there's like three things in his head.

He's like, I don't know how to work that. It's good to know he doesn't go into when, I don't know who all Mitch is speaking for, but it's good to know Jack isn't part of that. group. Yeah. Yeah, you guys are the best. I'll agree. The good parts are, I mean, you're coming to work with your friends every day. Like, learning through this process altogether.

The worst parts, you know, there really are no worst parts. This is the best job anyone can ever ask for. I have no idea what Mitch is talking about. This is like, wake up every day. And I'm like, let's get this. It's just well executed. I love it. Well executed.

I love it, man. That is. That's awesome. What about in return? What's the best and worst part about working with the back of the bus? Best part, obviously we've been a crew that's been together for what? Four years? Are we going on five?

Four? Yeah, we're on the other side of four. Post four. Yeah. And for the most part, we've all been together. The worst part is we've all been together so long. So we know. it's like a brotherly vibe at times

I would say speaking for myself it's Will was so ready to answer this question I was listening to you guys got to join myself and then he was like oh fuck Will is prepared No no I didn't like his vacations he's fucking ready I would say I would say the hardest part is like being being the guy you have to

learn how to like manage each individual person because everybody's different. And that's been the hardest learning curve because it's not like you can treat everything like you're in a film room and just watch film and kind of like, you know, be little or just be mean to guys or kind of just say what is black and white about it and how it either needs to get fixed or you end up getting cut or moving on, whatever it is. You kind of have to like find the relationship foundation and understand what people are motivated by. So that's been the hardest part. That's probably the, It's probably the toughest part. Because you got Mitch, you said something like that.

And it's like fucking. All right. Does everybody feel this way? Oh, it doesn't sound like it. I'm just kidding. I'm fucking with you, Mitch. Mitch, be fair to you, the thing you brought up about texting and tweeting,

I think I've had that conversation with Will a few times. Being like, hey, I see you tweeting. Please just text me back. That's payback. The first half of our relationship together, like you just go off the radar. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's big time payback. Okay.

Well, let's get back to neutral. Payback. There's still a lot of having the tank. Best part, yeah, to go off what Will said, best part is definitely all the boys knowing each other really well. And being around each other and kind of knowing how everybody clicks, what pisses them off, what doesn't, using whichever one you want at that time.

That is the best part. And then the worst part is probably the same thing like Wilson. But speaking for myself, my least favorite part, of working with you guys is Mondays walking in the shop and there's no energy. When I walk in to dapp the boys up

and it's just like everyone's looking at their computer just dapp and I know you guys are working but I'm trying to start Monday off hot I'm not Garfield. I'm trying to have a hell of a Monday every Monday which I saw that movie by the way.

Have you guys seen that? It's horrible. The new Garfur movie that just came out. It's garbage. It's bad. I love Chris Pratt too but the movie is insane. So yeah,

that's probably, That's probably about one just off the top of my dome is the lack of juice sometimes when I walk in. Speak your truth, man. That is my truth. A fan question right here. At Mike, at Mike Dubs radio. Well,

we didn't hit a little dad segment so this could be a good one. What's your biggest tip for a new girl, dad? I'm out. How new is the baby? Is a baby brand new? We just get out of the womb. Yeah, we say you say you're a new. new girl dad like what's your biggest tip for new fathers dude um the skin to skin it seems kind of

ridiculous when your when your wife is who is obviously brought up to you you did not think of this but the whole taking your shirt off laying down and putting the baby with just a diaper on on top of you that connection it is going to play a big role down the line as far as her feeling comfortable with daddy being a daddy's girl or being more focused on mom i think the skin to skin is a is a massive move and it doesn't take a whole lot of work Oh, I like that. Yeah. I like that.

It's a small little tip. Mine would be, I would say because the first, how many months would you say that you kind of just in the, in the trenches about it? Probably until they get in a good sleep routine. Yeah. So what? First few months. I probably don't. I mean, room was probably four months.

I know there's like the philosophies are anywhere from that three, four, five. I think anyway. But once you, it's like being in that suck, being in those trenches. it's brutal. Like, let's just call a spade a spade. It's awesome. Shit is hard raising a kid. And you have all of your stuff going on at home with your spouse who's going through, what's it called, postpartum.

They're going through their journey after having the child that you have your things going on at home. You have things going on at work. You have things going on with your boys. You have things going on with colleagues, whatever it is. And at the same time, you're getting minimal sleep. You're having to do all the necessary. feedings and all the things going on. But if you could pull yourself out of it,

because it is fucking hard, there's times I was holding her and I wanted to swing on her and just be like, just get out of your will. I mean, just leave this family right now. But one day when we are all empty nesters, we're going to be old, the world's not going to give a shit about us. We're not going to be cool anymore. We're not going to be any of that shit.

We're going to want and miss those times when you're raising them, when they're at their smallest and seeing them kind of grow up. So during all the chaos, during all the mundane bullshit, which is really shitty at times, you can just remind yourself

that, hey, you're going to, you're going to miss this. You're going to wish you had this again. By the time they grow up, they don't need you anymore, they don't want you. That's usually what I battle with on a consistent basis.

I got to see my kids right now. Yeah. The first hour, I remember two springs or summers ago seeing you when Rue was like first born in those first couple of months, just a shell of a man. That's true. I remember specifically sitting out in the parking area and just looking at you, bags under the eyes, just exhausted. And coming in and having to manufacture some sort of energy for another episode.

Right. Just brutal. Totally brutal. And then for those of you who are going through the whole sleep schedule everything, human beings are love routine. So if you have a baby And if you feed the baby Burp the baby

Change the baby or any combination How you do it Do it the same exact way every single time Because a lot of times babies If you do it in a different combination Or you miss one of those things You put the baby down The baby will be fussing

You think oh they need to be burnt more They need to be fed more When really they're just looking for routine Then that'll help a lot Because there is going to be It is hell But there's going to be a glimmer of hope When you go and you're dreading

To go put them down for the fourth nap of the day and they go down a little bit easier you're like oh I'm getting better at this I'm doing what I need to do right now and it kind of just then one nap goes away then another nap goes away and then you're at

one nap and that is that's when you're like all right naps a little bit longer you get your time like you like or when you change their shitty diaper just to hold them and then they just shit themselves again so you got to change it again within like a matter of minutes and when you're when you're potty training you make them go to the bathroom like two times

during bedtime yeah but then when you when you think it's over and you think they're nodding off. And they hit you with, Daddy, I have to go poop. Get your ass up and get the toilet time. Let's go. You're so mad. There's nothing more in fear because you know you kind of got to restart the bedtime now. You can't just like go and lay down by all right, good night.

When you were thinking, I'm going to take 10 deep breaths and then I'm going to get up. You're on like breath eight. And they say that shit to you. You're like, no, I'm going to have to redo some of this shit. Yeah. And that's days end. Anyway, great question. A good book tip.

For sleep training, 12 hours and 12 weeks. Rue was like 15, 16 weeks, but 12 hours and 12 weeks. That's my book, recommendation for sleep training. All right, boys. This has already been an hour intro. We've got Jolly Roll that he is two hours and 10 minutes. Please enjoy. Are you good with this?

Rolling Stone headline. Jelly Rolls only wears socks once, says big people can't have stinky feet. This is on people. This is on people. People. Yeah. So it's like, just from you making that comment. It's like, just, you're instantly a news field.

Hey, Rolling Stone's fucking with us. Two times. Grammy nominated country singer. And I was just. I didn't want to have fucking stinky feet. I hope y'all are rolling. Yeah. I just didn't want to have stinky feet.

But what people are treating it like, oh, you only buys one pair of socks. Like, what a privileged thing to say? It was an honest moment for me. It was my answer was they said, what's the last thing you bought on Amazon? I said, actually, this is also my most frivolous habit I have. I was like, I buy socks.

That was my most recent Amazon purchase. I always buy new socks. I was like, I only wear socks. No, thank you. I'm scared of those, dude. Everybody, I know who does them. Well, he just did off the bus. you're insanely addicted to them.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like drug addict behavior, dude. I do two cans a day of this. My brother choose them like you. That is insane to me. He choose them like their fucking bubble gum, dog. Yeah, the boy says if he's not eating or sleeping, they're in. Yeah, no, that's interesting.

Even when I work out, if I get a workout in, I got two and halfway through the workout, I'll switch them out. I would worry about swallowing one or suck. Have you ever sucked one in the windpipe? Whoa. Oh. Oh, man. We had sucked one twice. I'm like, where's he going?

I know, right? This has been going. We had Kirk Cousins on, and he said that Taylor Hineke, he loves him. He's addicted to him. He'll get up and take a piss in the middle of the night. And as he goes and takes a piss, we'll throw one in. Dude. I haven't got there yet.

Kurt, that episode was fine, by the way. Kurt? Yeah, and I got to meet him. He was with, he was our boy Kittle at, of all places, Augusta. Really? And I was at the Masters. And I'm like, there's no way I'll see anybody I know here for sure. and I look up and of all motherfuckers, it's George Kiddling Kirk Cousins.

I bet there were so many 50-year-old white people watching you walk by going, let anybody in now. I'm wearing a denim jacket, blue jeans, boots. I'm out there dressed like I was going to do a concert. Dude, don't they have like a dress code there? Yeah, yeah. And they said, not for you. I had a trick.

So they posted a picture of Leon Bridges the year before. And Leon Bridges is just standing at Amen Corner in like linen and loafers. and I'm like, if he can wear linen and loafers, I can wear denim and leather. No question. You know what I'm saying? I was like,

you know what I mean? So I just showed up dressed like jelly roll. I like it. And it was awesome. And then no problem with it at all. Let me tell you what happened. I got to tell this story. I've been wanting to so bad.

I said, can I take the Leon Bridges picture? They're like, of course, we'll take you to A. And we'll send it to you and we'll post it from the masters. I'm like,

this is crazy. They're going to post me from the master. They wouldn't post the picture because I have my fucking ball cap. on backwards. No shit. Tats everywhere. And they won't give me the picture.

They don't trust me with the pitcher. Really? It's the backwards hat? No, it's the backwards hat to what did it, dude. Next thing. Headline, People magazine. Jellier Will and a lawsuit with Masters overcoat. That's crazy.

Dude's got tats on his face and everything. It's the backwards hat. No, we can't say to you. In my fault, I respect the game and I should have turned my hat around, but I wasn't, I wasn't thinking. And what's even worse is, as soon as I walked off, some guy said, you should have turned your hat around. I was like, man, they don't give a fuck what I do. I kind of joke back. I'm like, ha ha. The dude was like, okay. And sure enough, they never said me that. Just some guy trying

to warn you. Yeah, some guy was trying to give me game and I thought we were just kind of jazzing. Right, right, right. Don't worry, man. They didn't let me smoke weed out here. Dude, the whole, that's like the golf, the uppityness of the golf. That is for me, what, what turns me off to the game. When you draw, where you draw the line. That's where I draw the line. It's like, I don't like, I don't like dress codes. I don't like the color. You have to wear a color shirt, tucked in, can't wear a backwards hat. That's what I'm like, what are we trying to proof here. Yeah.

And that's what kind of turned me off for so long. Now I just... Especially when you hang out with pro golfers and they're degenerates. DJs. They're like us. Yeah. Like, you know, John Daly's like me and Ernest's dad. He is a lunatic.

He is so funny. When you see him go through the timeline, like, it's always something just absolutely hilarious. Have you heard this son? Have you heard the story of when he, like, started? I don't, I'll butcher the story, but he was basically like a ninth reserve guy for this major. I don't know if it was the masters or what. He ends up getting a call, wakes up hungover, doesn't want.

warm up at all. Get zero warm up time. Anything ends up wanting the thing. That's like the legend of John Daly's start. Oh shit. Yes. Rocking a bull cut moment. Yeah.

I mean, there's probably some major details I'm missing in that. But it was, that's the, you can have mom one day. Yeah. It's the back of the book. Yeah,

well, we'll get on here anytime. I'll call dad for you. I swear, dude. Dad will get on here, man. I swear, John will come on here and talk shit,

too. He's the dude. Dude, he rolled up. Hardy did a music video. How about this? I'll give y'all my word. I will call John Daly today and tell him he's like my...

I call him Dad for real. He's the sweetest dude. He, I mean, he sent me the coolest Christmas gift I even got this year. What was that? It was a painting. And it was like, I don't know if he knows this or not, but I don't like most artists,

I don't like stuff that says jelly roll. I won't wear a jelly roll shirt. You know what I mean? Or stuff like that or like a picture of myself. I won't hang pictures of me. So this painting is like, my lyrics encapsulated in different picture styles. So it's like the skull,

but a different style of the skull that I always rock. It has all these cool lyrics spray painted in the background and like live animations. I'll send y'all a picture. No shit. It's super cool. That is awesome. Yeah, he's the thoughtful.

It's a thoughtful gift. I got y'all, though, man. I don't know if anybody else gets excited to come back on here as I did. I just looked at y'all. Of course, I'm a little high, but I'm so happy. I know. I miss y'all, man. We hit a little bit of jelly right before we came on the bus.

So if I just get silent for a long time, yeah. If I get silent for a long time, I'm just know I'm just sitting in your vibe and trying to just catch up. I just get excited, man. It just reminds me, we've had a lot of good times and the fact that we've stayed friends and we talk. But the cool thing I love about coming back here is that we don't never get to talk like this.

Like, this is like ours. Like, we'll catch up. They just checking in or shoot the voice memos or the videos or the text. But this is cool, man. I've cried on this bus. I've been hung over on this bus. I've shipped myself on this bus. I've had some really wild.

Me and my wife have went viral on this bus. It's been trying over emotion and funny shit. Yeah, yeah. It is crazy to see like your last year. And we were just talking about right when you got on about people talking about you only wear socks once. A couple of years ago, no one gave a shit about how many socks you're wearing.

Right. Yeah, for sure. And it's got to be like the most insane thing. It'd be like us trying to clip that story and not, you know, you might get tracks. You might not. You probably will just because of social media of jelly roll. But you're not thinking it's going to be some negative headline.

No, dude. It's got to be like an insane thing. Like you, I mean, you're, you do really well of like sitting back and being appreciative of all this stuff. But, bro, it's gotten insane. Yeah, man, it's cool, though. It's like, I disconnected from it as soon as it started happening. I was like, oh, I know how to deal with this.

I immediately got off social media. I was like, but now I consume life in an even wilder way through news, but not like old news. Like, you know how you can get Google alerts for certain names. Like I put my name, my wife's name, the Tennessee Titans, bus and anybody, any of our friends, like the homies. Yeah. So like when like Bert's on Jimmy Kimmel, somebody, I see it.

You know what I mean? It pops up, Burke Kreis or Jimmy Kimmel. I'm like, I should go check this out. Which is a wild way to consume life too. You know what I mean? But it's way easier. That's basically what you've transitioned to since you get away from social media. For sure.

And I don't spend no time scrolling or doing it. And here's the coolest part, y'all. I'm creating more content right now than I've ever created. I'm fixing the flood content like I was an independent artist when y'all met me. How I was uploading 50 times a year on YouTube. I'm fixing, y'all are watch. Why is that? because now I'm not doing this for eight hours a day.

Yeah, you're just thinking. Six hours a day. Every time I have an extra second, I'm actually thinking about stuff now. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, I'm actually present when a camera's on me.

You know what I mean? I'm not looking for a moment to go check and. I spent more time looking what was happening on social media than using it as a tool to promote what I was trying to do. Right. How free has that been, that process of change? It's been great,

man. Yeah. It has been like, I've never been more aware of where I'm at. I've never been more present. everywhere I'm at is that's where I am. And that hasn't been the case for a long time. I've been in really cool moments.

Dude, it was like, I think it was the ACMs last year. I'm sitting behind Jason Aldine. It's the first time I realized I had a real problem. I was at the ACMs and it's just like a habit. We just pull my phone out and just kept getting lost in my phone. I met an award show sitting next to A-list celebrities. What the fuck is happening on TikTok that's going to be so cool to me? That's the thing TikTok wants to know about.

Yeah, for sure. It's like, the TikToks are coming from here. Yeah. I'm just watching the shit. I just watch. You know what I'm saying? It was just like, yeah, this is right then. I was like, this is getting sick.

When you did the transition, was there like a piece of withdrawal at first when you weren't scrolling? You kind of thought what your time. I'm a little fucking bored right now. For sure. Well, you still, you still, I still reach for my pocket a bunch. Yeah. You know what I mean?

Oh, yeah. It's not even, I don't even carry, you know, I don't even carry the phone. So it's just, I live in a whole different place, dog. I'm a great place. Do you feel like there's like, because we were talking about, we started with talking about that socks headline, like, how massive, like, where there can be in a negative blood or whatever, do you feel like there's more expectation on you now when you are creating, when you are getting in these environments? That's a great question, well, because I would assume you have to kind of battle with that, especially like you try to be real conscious of it. Yeah. But there's got to be times like you're, you've been just doing this.

Like you say, we swap stories and keep up with each other because everybody's busy. but you've just been doing this. So when you're trying to stay intentional, do you find out difficult at times or do you feel like there's that expectation? I think, man, I'm always vulnerable in here. I wouldn't say this in many places. Where I feel that the most will is in the studio.

I'm in a weird place where I've released 300 songs in my career. I've had success. I'm close to celebrating my fourth number one on country radio, my fifth number one on radio. I've had international songs. I mean, I've checked all the boxes of things that I never thought I would do. Grammy nominations awards,

but I'm technically in the world's eyes working on my sophomore album. And there's this age old cliche called the sophomore slump. Yeah, happens in sports too. You know what I mean? So it's like, I'm feeling it when I'm writing songs. Like I want to send y'all some stuff to listen to.

Like I'm fixing to get to the point where I'm fixing to just start leaning on my friends and relying on honesty. Because when you write 100 and something songs for an album because you're that into it, they start all sounding the same. You don't know which one's the better one of the two that sound alike. And now you're in this place where you've got 100 songs. I could have the best song of my career.

I don't even really know it right now because they're all just like a big puddle of just noise to me almost. So it's a scary place to be. I'm petrified. In the world of like writing songs and stuff like that. Like I'm genuinely petrified. Yeah. I mean it's a scary place to be because you've had all the success and there's always something in the back of your head when you are having a lot of success of like when's it going to end? Like when's the fall?

When is, you know, that fear creeps up in the back. Like damn is it really over socks? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Is this it? Because we know like, I mean, how many people do we know like lasted generation after generation of generation like five people in the music industry? And so you have to like, there's always a piece of you that's like, when's my time up?

When's my time coming? And then once your time comes, you're like, when is my time up? Right. And so it's a very legitimate fear to have. Like when you're writing this music, obviously like Ernest is a dude that always like he's like with you. You roll a party a lot. Morgan, those types of dudes like, how much are you leaning on this?

them to be able to zoom out a little bit. Because we, even with bussen, like, we get in the situations where we're so zoomed into what we're trying to do that we're kind of missing the right thing to do at the time. Right. You know? Like that intro. Yeah. Like that intro.

That's exactly what I was thinking about when I said that. Yes. Yeah. It's the only time I've ever seen y'all just miss. Dude. You know what I was like? And that is, that was on me as well. That was on me.

We literally sat right outside the bus. And it was like, what was it January? Or right, right before January. and was like, hey, I think, you know, Quaker City Nighthawks, tip of the cap back to the, like, our original, original intro. This, that, and like, he's, like, going through and he's like, this seems like a really good idea. And I at the time, like, it's not all Willisphal.

I was like, yeah, that sounds dope. That sounds cool. I mean, it took you meant to get your mind around it. It took me a minute. Like, I've done it a couple times, but it just, we've never actually done it or pursued. Somebody writing us something. And there's a style like, have you ever seen Club Sheeshay? Yeah.

He's kind of got like a cliffhanger at the beginning and this undertone of Nipsey. And then it goes into. to the Nipsey Hustle song. And I always think it's like, they have that one that grabs you in the first 10, 15 seconds of a clip. So I was trying to think like the song that we have with Ernstrow,

you don't necessarily have like an underlying tone where you can do that. So it's like how can we find a song? And it's like I've always been obsessed with this. What was it? Some of Adams Blues by Quicker City Nighthawks. And I was like, man, this could sound dope. We tried it.

You know, we're back. I'll tell you this. I'll give you some game. You're ready for it. And this is something, just something that old head topped me. I would be painted cars for a living, right? and he said you're always one stroke away

from either polishing it to a pearl or polishing the paint off. Just one wipe away. It's that close. You know what I mean? Sometimes you just got to go, man, that motherfucker's a pearl right now. I bet on my touch it.

You know what I'm saying? Don't fuck this up. And it's good friends that we talk about being, you should have just shot a message too that even, I mean, we were getting doubled. I feel like y'all, y'all couldn't have missed it. The comments were berating y'all. Listen, y'all were putting out the,

best content ever and all you could see in the comments was bring back the urchro you know you know urchos at his house sitting there petting his dog going hell yes yeah yeah yeah he's got yeah he's got all those comments were just earnest yeah the whole time bring back the intro but yeah who so of those guys that we were talking about and we were in your sophomore album who we talking to like are you like giving it to them being like please tell me where i'm fucking up earnest yeah i brought earn it well what happened whenever the final phase of Ernest is always to do The common dominator

He's the guy You've got to call the earner The dodinator What'd you say? I don't know I thought I said the nominator But I guess it's the dominator Are you high will?

We're on the magic school bus And you really are right now No dude I'll just shoot it to earn And I'll shoot them And I'll shoot snippets to friends I'll shoot y'all some I just kind of hit people that are honest My wife's man

I was to play her songs. If you ask her, I've had two hits ever. You know what I'm saying? It's crazy. How many hits out there that never made it to the... Never made it out there because Boney was like, this is garbage. How excited for the beer limberts, y'all?

Fired up. Depends. What do we depend on us? I've heard a rumor. There's some scuttle butt. I heard a rumor that logistically, Jilly Roll might not be able to make it. We're doing it for sure.

I've already figured that out. I'm doing Kimmel the same day, so I'm flying right there. We're just doing an A and a B rig. there we go there we have it this is it we're putting on this shit when i told y'all it was done i know but i thought so too but you know how it is when management gets involved and then there's a third party well we can tell people now yeah yeah yeah yeah we're doing beer olympics at redrock in in las vegas beer game championships of beer game sorry beer game oh i didn't know we had and all the

way went no i'm sorry okay we've hinted no this is great for you to be on the way announced it and there's been a lot of people coming and going dude we started in February locking cats in. Put it on your calendar and we've had people drop out. It's been it's been a bummer. So I get a call last week and I'm talking back and forth and somebody at Red Rock is like, yeah, Jelly's on the 50 yard line right now. And I was like, whoa, because if we talked a little bit ago, you say he's on like a 10.

And we've had the conversation. So I'm like, oh, this is for sure happening. They say logistically, he's just seen if you can make it happen. But and then you just, you just assume Red Rock management, they start talking. And every few days, every few days. Every few days, Taylor's usually hit me with like, hey, are you seated? I have some more bad news. Some more bad news.

And it's just like, I just put the bull in our head. And he's like jelly roll. And I was just like, no, no, no, we'll figure it out. We got, we're doing, we're doing Kimmel that day, I think is what's happening. And we're just figuring out a way to knock out two birds. Bing, bang. Because it is, it is going to be. It's going to be incredible.

Like the event, all the stuff we got going into it, the shade cover, the sponsors, the graphics. I'll tell you what's probably happening is on our end. inside baseball and this is how we talk on the phone y'all get to see how we talk to each other if I had to guess they just haven't got back for them they're just not getting back to them quick enough like Red Rocks probably wants it in a certain timeline

and the way my people are probably looking at it sadly we have so much shit coming up or probably like yo chill we'll be there for sure you know what I mean like relax like dude's coming you know what I mean that's fantastic that's what my guess is right now that they're more just worried that you know what I mean and your team's sticking to a script too it's like if they're saying this it's not fitting

in our script like maybe this in a conversation As soon as I hit y'all and said what way do y'all want to do it and y'all told me I hit them right then I was like that's how we're doing it we did have a lengthy conversation so for everybody who doesn't know the text message group chat you hit us up and you want

to do a 300 person like private show or do you want to do like an actual public show Will was thinking private I was thinking public and the reason why I was thinking public is dude beer Olympics I mean you saw us last year no one's going to be hearing your music we're all going to black out anyway for sure so to have other people go and enjoy it.

I was thinking, it's a nice gesture to be amazing, but at the same time, like, I'm not going to remember shit. I'm going to be like, hey, how did Jilly do last night? That was way, he did awesome.

And then we sent it to the boys and it was a unanimous public. Unanimous public. So that being said, ladies and gentlemen, June 25th, Tuesday at Red Rock one night only,

the king himself, Jellier will be playing a concert. Let's fucking get a round of applause for that, boys. That's a big time. Yes, yes. But just to prepare everybody, all of the beer games content

that will be shot that day, won't be coming out until, I think, in August. There's going to get a lot of editing done and everything else. Yeah. Really pouring into it. It's crazy how much that's blown up, but not near as much as what we want to talk about you, bro. No.

You have been doing. Every time, I feel like you're never home. No, no. I was gone 300 days last year. Really? That's real. God. That is nuts, man.

It looks like I'll be in the 250s, 260s. Like, well, what's happened in the last year? Just chasing the record. I dropped the album. Right, right. But I'm saying, like, what, like, what are the cool new things that you've been doing in the last year because Jack's like, hey, what do we want to talk to Jellie about? I'm like, man, I don't know if I've been able to

just, I see, it's like you come across my screen, you're giving some fucking Southern Baptist Church speech every time I bring up X. But you're in Congress talking about drugs. Yes. You're on American Idol. You're on the voice. You're on every today's show ever, tonight's show ever. Shit, I'm surprised you haven't hosted SNL yet.

Yes, God, man. You need to host SNL. That would be nasty. I tell you what, I'm free this fall. I'm around. But you've really been fucking doing it all. It's been really cool. You saying that,

I'm learning about all the different things he's been on it. It's like hard to... This man was in front of people who make laws. Yeah. I am an ex-drug dealer telling you this is a problem. And it's 10 minutes long. Yeah. And he is articulate, saying his thing.

It was incredible. How much did you prepare for that? I really did. I really did. I really did. I'm not going to like it. I'll tell you the coolest part of that story is that my sister went to college. She's the smartest one in our family by a country mile.

But we've never found a point of connection to be able to work together on anything. And I called her and said, I got a job for us. She said, what? I said, I'm pretty well-spoken. You're well-smart. Why don't you get me some logistics and some peer-reviewed facts here? And then we'll build a case and I got to put together a speech to present the Congress. Me and her sat down and cooked that up together.

That is awesome. I was like, I'll figure out the analogy, you just give me the statistics. And then I'll write it up. And, man, I was in my wife, she picked on me a little bit about it in a sweet way how she does. She said, you were so cute. I was up with my sheets of paper reading them, like I was reading a script, you know, practicing the night before. Yeah. Because, dude, this was serious.

I was going in front of the United States Congress. Yeah, man. I took it serious. You know what I'm saying? And everyone's going to see it. It's not just some, no disrespect, some random person walking up and saying, hey, we got to change this law. Like, you're a super influential person. For sure.

How much. prep like when that phone call happened to your sister how far was the congress meeting away three weeks about we took about three weeks to really start coming together i feel like that's even a short amount how nervous were you extremely yes you very more nervous than i'm so looking man first of all it was in a fucking courthouse they'll say it's not a courthouse but i've been to a courthouse this is a courthouse you know what i'm saying you know what i mean and then it's a courtroom they said it's not a courtroom but it's a courtroom i've been to a courtroom it's set just like a courtroom and i didn't think about this until I was sitting there.

But it's already designed for you to feel less. Right? And I'm sure it's designed that way on purpose because all the congressmen are sitting up and looking down at you. So like you're peering up. And there's just, I didn't think about it, but psychologically, you're inchly,

I'm not looking at you eye to eye. Right. There's a separation between me and you. You know what I mean? There's a clear thing that you're here and I'm here. And that made me more nervous than I anticipated, because that felt like a judge. Judges sit up too.

You know what I'm saying? I was like, man, I'm in court right now. But it was, and I hope that they were going to go the other way. Because I look at the guy of the left of me from the FOP, great guy, fraternal order police. I go, pardon me, sir, have you done this before? He's like, oh, yeah, all the time. The next guy next to him was a DA, federal DA. I said, you do this.

He's like, all the time. Yeah, we come speak here, you know, probably once every other week. Yeah. And I was like, oh, great. Well, one of these guys go first, and I kind of know what I'm doing here. You know what I'm saying? And I'll get to see a route. I don't know what I'm doing.

Right. You know what I mean? And, of course, I'm in the headspace that I'm constantly in. Right. So I'm in there and I'm like, maybe one of these guys. The magic school bus. Right. I'm like, maybe one of these guys will show me the fucking way.

You know what I mean? And now they were like, all right, Mr. D for it. I'm sure you've never done this. I was like, never thought I'd do it. All right. Go ahead first. Sacrificial land. Get out there.

There you go. Jesus Christ. The reaction of that speech was. also like a very viral thing. How coming out of that, you probably didn't expect that or anticipate that, nor care about it. But seeing that it blew up the way it did,

I bet that that had to feel good, knowing that you are pushing to make a wave like that. It did. It felt really, it felt, I had a moment where I was sitting there and I looked down at that camera and I seen the screen and I seen myself and I was like,

oh, this picture is going to be everywhere the rest of my life. Like I'm on C-SPAN right now. I didn't know I was going in to be on C-SPAN. You know what I mean? I'm like, I'm on public television. Free, free television right now. Everybody can get this. Everybody that anywhere, they can watch me.

I'm getting watched in prison right now. You know what I mean? Like, I am on C-SPAN. And I think also it goes to like how the award speeches work for me. There's a true moment where this is just all unreal to me. And I take every one of those moments extremely serious. Like, way, like, not serious an aspect, like, I don't prep for award speeches, but like, I take it serious. When I'm walking up there, I'm praying right then quietly.

God, this is the last time that I ever win one of these and I get to address millions of people watching me. I'm in front of my peers. I am elated to be here, by the way. It's insane to me that artists win awards and they walk up there like, fuck, I hate I had to come. come out tonight. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Like they walk up there like my feet hurt.

You know what I mean? It's like, I hadn't touched the ground tonight, dude. I'm 450 pounds and I'm fucking float. You know what I mean? It's like, I don't, you know, it's, um, and I just want to take those moments serious. And the Congress one was even more serious because there was a side of me and I hope I don't get a trouble for this. It was walked in there a little pissed off.

Just a little bit. You know what I mean? Just a little chip on my shoulder because I walked up there thinking, and there's no way that 200 Americans are dying a day and that I am the guy that has to come in here and bring attention to it. Like this is a little absurd that it took me. You know what I mean?

Of all people like, it should have never got to this point. So I found myself feeling that emotion too in the moment. And I don't know if you could see it in me, but there was a hint of like, you don't see me that serious that often. Yeah. You know, I'm not a serious song, right?

I'm not a serious guy. Right. You know what I mean? Don't take anything I say very. serious, but I was fucking, see, this is me walking in the court. You can see it on my face. That initial clip when I first walked in, they had media out there trying to talk to me. And I was, first time ever, I was kind

of rude to media. You see, I'm not even looking at the camera. You seem more stern there than ever. Yeah. And I wasn't trying to be mean. I was just like, hey, man, I'm nervous and I'm going here and make a fucking point. At what point when you were having those feelings and you sat down? This is crazy that we're watching this with y'all, dog. I would have never dreamed this when I came on y'all's bus the first time. If I'm just like selling two or three thousand tickets for me, I had made it. I got on this bus the first time.

I was like, big as I'll ever be in happy about it. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? You're talking about your catalog and I'll probably just sell that for $30 million. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, for sure. That is just, yeah, it's crazy, bro. And it's crazy how we met.

This is so perspective, just sitting in here like this. Thank you. Dude, having a shop. Yeah, it was the reason why. Shop, yeah, because I brought Shob here. The first two podcasts I ever did. The first two podcasts I ever did was Shob and y'all. And now you've been.

Rogan, bro. Yeah, baby. The Joe Rogan effect, baby. I changed the name. It's not the experience anymore. It's the Joe Rogan effect. How fast was that? We talked about the last time you're on.

It's immediate. Really? It's immediate. Yeah, it's unreal. You've been seeing the Terrence Howard? Oh, man, listen. I'll listen to the first 30 minutes of it in the sauna this morning. It's not insane.

It starts. So how did you get into acting? And I don't know Joe knew. That was the trigger phrase. No. But, man, it's like. Like Joe knew the one sentence to unlock. I wonder if Joe would have said,

so how's your morning if it would have unlocked that same thing? But he's like, let me tell you before I was born. Dude, that was right. I was right beneath the surface. And the low key, when he's talking,

when he starts saying like one times one is two, he's like, because you have, multiplication is a multiple. And if you put anything in front of another one, it has to get bigger. Yeah. I'm thinking,

kind of makes sense. Yeah. I felt like, I put my calculator. Yeah, you saw about the square root, In Neil de Gras Tyson, right? That's the scientist.

Yeah. He's like telling how Neil's coming at him and all this. But he's talking about Adam separating and there's four edges. But when you put eight bubbles together, I'm just like, you know the crazy? He's kind of a genius. And maybe he's a psychopath. I don't know. I haven't picked aside yet.

It all came from the dude that played a pimp and hustle and flow. That's the part I can't get over. He's like, I watch this dude play a Memphis Pimp in my favorite movie. It's the only movie I've ever known to me. And he's also the smartest man you've ever met in your entire life now. Yeah, it's insane. He's fucking Tyson, Neil de Grasier. that made the biggest impact on me was when he was the

divorce father in Big Mama's house. That's like what I think is. I think of like an intimidating cat. Like with Terrence Howard and then also in the fighting movie with Channing Tatum, right? You know, the sad part is... I don't remember this in either one of these films. I just remember Hustle and Float.

It's the only film I've ever remembered him being in. Big Mama's House. He was like the scary dude, the dad that you were trying to protect... It's called Fighting. Yeah. I don't think I've even seen this movie. I'm getting crucified on. online right now.

People watching this are like, you're telling me you only knew one Terrence Howard movie and it was a absolute lie. Honestly, I was kind of with you.

I don't know what this is. I know Big Mama's house. You should have picked up that. You should have picked up Big Mama's house. I just can't look at him and think of him doing anything but going in my eyes out of seeing some crazy things in the streets.

Got a couple girls working on the track just for me. I don't know. Oh, he's an Ironman? He was in Crash? Yo. And the thing is, what you like?

Find yourself enjoying about that conversation is right, wrong, whatever. Everybody's going to argue, pick it apart, whatever it is. But his enthusiasm and talking about, you just know that this dude obsesses over this stuff. For sure. So it's like pulls you in when he's talking about being naked in his dreams and accessing the future like he's Lou and hot tub time machine where he can like, that's why he's got 97 patents? You just said they're like, yo, what is this guy talking about? Yeah, this is my 97 patents. Can we look up his patent?

Does anybody look this up yet? Then he had a gym bag. He hands Joe a couple. And I'm just so curious what's going on in Joe's mind, like, as he's holding him. Because Joe doesn't, like, say a word for those first 30 minutes. First 30 minutes. Yeah. And he just, at one point, it was, can I just stop you there for a second?

Yeah. He's saying, can we go back a couple octanes here? No fucking down. Stop you. It's for us, man. I'm only 30 minutes in. And it was all Terrence. And it was incredible.

But I'm sitting in the sauna this morning. Yeah, we saw yourself. You got the cold tub. You got the sauna going on? Dude, listen, man. Gary Breck in your life? Gary Breka is like, help me, I dropped those first like 60-something pounds effortless with him. We just did our blood work, our first 90-day blood work cycle together to see the differences, insulin down, hemoglobin's great, liver's doing great, kidneys doing great, heart strong.

I had obviously being a big guy, I had a spike protein marker in my heart that just a little bit showed a lot of inflammation. Big cars, big engine kind of thing, but still not right. I mean, it's the effects of obesity, right? that went down dramatically points a whole point or something point and a half two points in 90 days like I've been a pre-diabetic as you could imagine like at a 6.2 forever as long as I remember like how I'm not a full-blown diabetic mind blowing a little bit yeah right you know what I'm saying so and it went from 6-2 to like 5 9 in three months and that just seems like three points but that's a that's a consistent 90-day blood marker right it's not

like your instant, you know, the prick of what's in your bloodstream. You know, that's a 90 day. I've only had 90 days. Right. And it's on those three points. What is it? A1C. You see what I'm saying like this?

I should have just brought my blood work where we could have nerded out about. I'm so proud of it. What is the? I'm carrying my blood work around like when I was in jail and I carried my paperwork around to prove I didn't snitch. Like, see, I didn't snitch, read it. You know what I would never tell. Dude, what is, you said 5.8, 6.2?

Like what is, what's the number that you're a diabetic? Six. Oh shit, you were right there Yeah, it's called being a pre-diabetic I've been at a 6-2 for like a decade Right So I'm type 1 diabetic Oh wow

Yeah, so to give reference to your A1C Like I check my blood sugar You probably see me do it before Yeah That's an immediate result And you know exactly in real time What your blood sugar is Your A1C is essentially

Like what Joe is saying Like a 90-day average Of where you're at It doesn't correlate to the number You see on a glucometer But the A1C is crucial because like mine being type 1 diabetic, it's good if I'm like 7.2. And 6.2 for someone who's not is like considered you're on the verge of it.

But you want to be between 5 and 7 being like the like max. They want you in between like 6 and 7 in like the decimal point system. But yeah, the A1C is just like your average glucose over the last 90 days. It gives you a good measurement for long term effects. Dr. McPherson, man. I should have. brought the paperwork. We've had a really cool, like, it's been cool. How did you get put on with Gary?

I just won, same way I did y'all, same way I get put on with everybody. And I learned this from Rogan, being a Joe Rogan fan. When Joe Roman was like, man, I just get into the stuff I'm a fan of. It's like, that's what I do. I just get into the stuff I'm a fan of. So, like, as soon as I started seeing the Dana White Trent change, because it was like clear to me. We watched Dana White fight Maneers before. Like, you know, being a fan of his over the years, I've seen him go through some shit. And I've seen him look really bad. scarily like big and red face

puffy, you know, like puffy and just like scarily bad. And I mean, y'all you hang out with him more than I do. Man, that dude looks incredible. He looks young, he's sharp, he hears great. Remember I used to not hear nothing? No, no, he can't hear nothing. He still can't hear good. He still got that one. It seems like that left ear is bad for sure. He's always got that

little turn up, what you say? Yeah. Yeah. But dude, yeah, he is. But he just seems really, you know, just and I started watching his transition. So I was like, man, I should, I should maybe reach out to this guy. Maybe, maybe I got some blood work that's off. Maybe he can see something so I just cold hit him and lucky for me his wife sage love you sage sage sage is the best sage is a country music fan so she knew who I was they just loved like her and her daughter her daughter's

baby's age so they love Morgan they just love the whole community of country media yeah so they were familiar enough with me to be like yo we want to get you on a on a thing with him so gary immediately got involved changed everything and I bought right into it too really it didn't take me no time at all man that's what I'm curious about because I mean I've been around you like Like we've known each other for what, four years? Five years? Five years? Yeah, something like that.

And I feel like you, there's been like moments and phases to where you're in the middle of doing something. Right. He's showing up with a gallon of water that has lemon, lemon juice in it. Right. Because I'm doing it, boys. Right. Hell yeah.

And being super intentional with this one, this time. What feels different about it? I think it was really like realizing that I just want to feel good. Like, I thought, I said this whenever we did our 5K, and I meant this, I thought that every problem I had in life would be solved if I ever found any kind of success in stability. And then I started getting success and stability and none of those problems were solved. And I know that's the old cliche thing.

And trust me, when I was broke and I heard wealthy people say this, I would get sick. I'd be like, if you don't love your money, give it to me, you fucking fat asshole. Right. I'll be happy with it. You know what I'm saying? It's like, but that's not like, trust me, I enjoy the things that money can do. but it was that and I'll let y'all know if we can keep this part in

because if we can this will be the biggest clip of this show my wife and I are talking about having a baby and it really would make me realize at almost 40 I was like it means I got to live at least 60 I got to see this kid into college like and my plan was never to be 60 it was to be like 55 I think Garcia died at 56

So since I was young, I was like, 56 to be great for me. You know what I'm saying? Like, when Garcia win, I'm in. You know what it sounds better than 27? That's when all the other stars died. It's 27 or 56 in Celebrity Worlds. Let me be 56. That's what you want to go.

But now I'm like, well, I'd like to see my 60s. You know what I mean? And that really lit it up. And being able to see blood work got kind of nerdy. Do you have a constant? Do you have a Libre on you? No. Have you ever worn one?

Yeah, so we're like, it's got a Dexcom G7. And it's just like, can, they're trying to, find a continuous loop, which is like a device you wear that registered your blood sugar and then gives you the appropriate insulin, that is essentially the cure they're looking for. But I have a thing I can wear on me that constantly monitors it, but I'm not wearing it right now. I know it sounds crazy, but I just started nerding out about it, Taylor. I got this thing. He knows what I'm talking about.

It's called a Libra. And it just, it'll show my constant blood sugar in real time, right? So then I started getting nerdy and being like, I would eat certain things to watch the effects of it. Yeah. And if little shit like that has just changed my whole life. Now I just want to eat better because I feel better. Like I know that sounds so corny. Who would have thought being fucking fat my whole life that all I would feel better if I just ate better?

Yeah, but it's not the craziest concept. It's insane. Because it's like when I was 310 pounds or when anybody is overweight or anything or eats like shit and has a good body, it becomes your norm. So you just think this is how normal feels all the time. And you really don't start realizing until you start peeling back layers, doing the blood work and eating a little bit healthy and that one, two, three weeks of eating healthy, where you're like, I can notice an obvious difference in my mood, my cognitive function. I can even start to see it a little bit.

Hey, that wasn't there before. That's kind of nice to have that there. Like, you start to see those things. Now you start to realize what you were dealing with wasn't normal. The normal is over here. You just have to get to that point. And so I think it is one of those things that people don't think about a whole lot. There's like, all, I always feel X, Y, and Z.

Not realizing it's not, it doesn't have to be like that. Yeah. But getting obsessive with the measuring, the data and everything. else I feel you on that because then it's like your competitive nature it becomes like a little game you start it starts to dude I'm falling in love with the clarity I'm getting like like a clarity I've never had like man I get out of that I wake up every morning to do anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes in a sauna and then uh and then I immediately do six minutes in the cold water and then I go for my walk or go from my swim it's the first thing I do every morning and I'm thinking so clear in that sauna man I've only

been up six, seven minutes, and I'm just already just cooking. It's just, man, I've just never felt more fucking focused and dialed in. I get to bring the sauna and the cold plunge on the road now. No shit. No shit. Yeah, because you know how Dana is? I told Dan, I was like, hey, how do you carry your mobile sauna? Well, he just sends me one already in a case.

You know what I'm saying? Yeah. That's what's like that real rich friends. You know what I'm saying? It's just like, yo, no problem. We'll send it straight over. Yeah. And literally, I got one in storage now.

It just follows me. It's great. For real. That is awesome. That is sick. What's, like... And Gary Brecker's the guy... Have y'all been with him yet?

Y'all should fuck with him just... Y'all should have them on. Yeah, we'd love to have him on. Yeah, absolutely. We've kind of... We went back and forth in... I think we've been out to him for a few months now. Yeah, like January.

When we were kind of talking back and forth, and then he went on Rogan, and then he went on Nalk Boys, and then he went on all these other shows. And so his people kind of reached out. We're like, well, what are your guys's numbers? What's going on here? And I think that's when...

That's what kind of when the red tape hits. Yeah. Because I've been around Gary on three separate occasions now. Every single time I've enjoyed him. Every single time he's just a wealth of knowledge, great personality. Like he's just, and he seems like intentionally speaks to you. Like he's not trying to think about the next thing he has to do. He's right there with you.

So I really enjoy him. One person he's had on his show, his podcast, Superhuman podcast or whatever, is Gabriel Lyon who Will and I work with. Oh, yeah. And she's in the same world. She does very similar blood test. You know, you get on Zoom with her and all that stuff. And it is fascinating stuff.

To kind of feel like find that little edge of where you can kind of get better. Right. You know, what your body can process, what it can't process. And because when we get older, I mean, dude, I'm 32. And I'm like, you know, I got a shoulder, the knee, that my fingers are facing different directions. And you just kind of worry, like, now that that part of my life is over, I want to make sure that cognitively I can handle stuff. And I can, you know, be old enough. And I don't, like, I can run around my kids when they're older and all that stuff.

You really start to think about future stuff than you do right now. Yeah. It's tough. Was that something you thought about when you got the weight off? Like, have you already talked about this a bunch on this podcast? I don't want to make you talk about it. No, no, I haven't really talked about it.

We just kind of mentioned, Hey, Taylor, I lost a lot of weight and I say, yeah. Like, we haven't talked about that, but, like, I noticed, like, back pain or sleeping on my side, my shoulder would hurt in the morning, and now that my shoulder doesn't really hurt the morning, my back doesn't really hurt anymore.

Like, there's things that I just thought were normal because, oh, I'm playing football, I'm lifting weights. You play through everything. You play through everything. You start to get, you start to lose one. You're like, oh, damn, like, this already feels so much better to me. Right.

That I'm like 260, 255. Yeah. And it is, it's a, it's a noticeable difference. Was it intentional, though? To lose that weight. Yeah. When I knew that the writing was on the wall and I was going to get cut and, you know, the knee thing happened and all that, I was like, let me, you know, I'm just probably

not going to eat a little bit. Get shredded. Yeah. Yeah, I'm lucky. Get Jackson's. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I got a corner. I was like, I was like, I was like, I was probably not. A lucky body type where when I was at my playing weight, it was, you know, three shakes a day, there were 1,200 calories, three meals and I'm losing five pounds at night. Like, I always had to be a guy that had to gain weight. So when I kind of just ate normal for a little bit, it just flew off. Yeah. I lost like 30, 40 pounds in a hurry. To the point, we'll say, hey, you're starting a little sickly.

You're as light as me right now. Yeah, yeah. It was, you know, you kind of just live. And I've never lived like that before in sports where you're like live and you're. Just eating when you're hungry, and that's it. You're not like shoving a meal. Like when in high school, we joked about this. I would look at three in the morning, just have a protein shake.

And I'd go back to sleep, not realizing that's actually horrible for you to do. But you would do shit like that. But when you're like trying to put on the weight, get their scholarships. Yeah. Trying to get them scholarships, dude. But you, you can obviously see your body's already changing. What's your, now that you see that this is achievable, what is the goal for you? I'm doing the little goals.

So the 5K by May was my first one. And I needed that because between us, I came out of. the gun hard for about 90 days. Yeah. And about 25 days before the 5K started, I just fell off the rails. Really? Yeah, just gave up all that work, ate like shit a little bit on and off, had a couple of big drinking vendors, just kind of went back to old habits.

You think it's only a few hours that I'm doing today? No, that won't even thought about tomorrow. I just left to, I don't have no excuses. The schedule swallowed me, and I'd learn from it. I won't do it again. But I woke up the day of the 5K, like, I'm not as prepared for this as I was three weeks ago. It sucks. And I still, it's a tough feeling.

It's a tough feeling. And you show up and you still do it because you know I could because I got in better shape and I did lose a lot of weight and I was feeling better. But I had a moment there where it kind of refired me up and I was like, all right, now I want to do another 5K. I want to do it around Thanksgiving and I want to do it at a constant job. This right here was at a brisk power walk. I'm not embarrassed of my mile minute.

It was like 18, 19 minute miles. Yeah. Which for me, when a guy that started at 500-something pounds and couldn't walk a mile, felt great about that time. Now I'd like to get it down to like 16, 15, a little jog. A really kind of slow, steady jog. And then go to the 5K, the two bears 5K next year and put up a real fucking time.

Yeah. Do it twice like Bert did. No shit. But Bert did it the first time and then went back and did it with me. Really? And if this goes the way I wanted to, I am dragging Bert Kreisher to do a half marathon next fall.

Damn. That's my plan. Okay, I like that goal. Yeah, these are my plans. And I love saying it here because I said I was going to do the 5K on knelt and fucking went and did it and lost a lot of weight so y'all hold me to this just like y'all held me to it and i had to show up in may and fucking sweat my balls off in pasadena yeah and it kind of i feel like too it probably remotivate you because you're getting around

all your boys and everybody who was kind of either preparing for it or they're in the middle of doing something for themselves you're just kind of like bert doing it twice like man i got to fucking get back on the woods it made me feel great and it was cool to see other how many other big guys did it because of bird or because of me. Foley was there from, you know what I'm talking about, are you garbage podcast? He walked it with us.

He's a very robust man. You know what I'm saying? You know, it's like, he encouraged, he inspired me because I kept looking at him like, we're about equally yoked here. You know what I'm saying? Like,

about equally yoked here. It was like, this is fair. Yeah. My holy goal was like not to let him smoke me quietly. Right. And I bet he quietly had the same goal. He was like,

we're similar specimens. If this dude starts, jogging right now, I'm going to die. Because I'm going to faint. You know what I'm saying before I let Foley beat me? I'm sure he looked at me. That's how fat people size each other. I'm sure he looked at me and I was like,

Foley, let's stick together so we can control our own face. I kind of started. I roped him in immediately. I was like, come on, be my guy. Imagine if he just took off at the start. Yeah. He started ripping it. You're like, God, damn.

Fuck, I got a ways to go. Yeah. That's awesome. That is cool. You're knocking those things off, no problem. Yeah, feel good, man. And I do feel good. My testosterone's growing up.

My labs, as you could expect, were bad. You know what I mean? They just wasn't good. It's all, every level that could be off in an obese man, as you could expect. And balancing some of that stuff else just helped so much. Were they, they're obviously expected to be bad. Were they as bad as you thought they would be? Or were there a couple of silver linings in there.

Okay. Yeah, there was a couple of right. The kidney and the liver surprised me. Yeah. They surprised everybody for what it was where it was big shock. You know what I'm saying? You should have seen everybody. Are you sure?

They didn't want to tell. They started looking it up in the fingers. We got to do that again. I think we're going to go get a second opinion. Even Gary was like, I don't want to tell you this, but your kidneys and liver are incredible. You know what I'm saying? And I was like, yeah. That was about the 25 day out from two bears, Mark.

Yeah. You heard that your kidney liver is good. Like let's box. Yeah.

you're like we should just drink all night yeah the vibes are up you're my favorite people to drink with I've had a good one with y'all you don't have to lie to us jelly

I swear to God a lot of people you're a lot I've got you puke and drunk and had a blast doing it That is the funny story to hear. You are so fun.

With Brad LeBrot, bro. Yes. You are so fun drinking. And I like Taylor because Taylor drinks like me. You see it in his eyes. There's a switch that happens where he's instantly like, I'm doing this until I pass out. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?

And it's also a goal like if I'm going to get this fucked up, everyone else around me also has to get fucked up. Instantly, I'm like, this ship sinks like the Titanic. We play music to the death, motherfucker. Women and children can live first. The rest of the men, you're dying. We're all die here to God. That is the end of it. Yes, for sure.

No, it is. I'll try to sneak because Will, Will, well, will understands when it's time to stop. Yeah. But drunk Taylor will not let drunk will stop. So I'm like, Hey, man, let's have one.

And I'll have one if you have one. I've, I've taken a couple waters while he's taking some tequila. I knew he too, bro. I fucking knew it. Hey, I'll go out to the bartender. I'm like, give me that cup you just threw away.

Oh, like, toss it of a side. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, are you giving him water? And they're kind of like, oh, no, I know, I know, like, four or five ahead of Will. I'm like, no fucking chance. I'm gonna let this guy. And then the next day it's like,

you're pretty fucked up last night, weren't you? No, no, no, no. We're both gonna be, hey, you were pretty fucked up last night. I'll be looking at tailoring the face. Like, I know your fucking line to me. He's like, bro, no. I need to smell. Do you like that to you?

Just line, don't tell you, line to your face. I'm taking the water trick. I like that. What's that? Because the trick, you got the barter to pour you water. Yes. Because I've been in a situation where you're like me. I'm like the host kind of.

So like a group of people coming, I'm like, we should take a shot. Right. The next group comes in, I'm like, we should take a shot. And then Will comes over, and Will's like, we should take a shot. And I'm like, I just took three shots. Right. You know what I'm saying?

No, we're jealous of behind you. Hey, for the boys, Bubba. He's like, Goddain, this double shot. Just those on your shoulder. I just start chasing. Come on, you got to have. A little blackout drunk gremlin. Yeah.

Only at comedy clubs, we're safe there. It's the last safe frontier. June 12th, dude, live show in Nashville, man. Here? We're here. What's what we're doing? Let me check it. And, you know, last time we did a live show, when you came on,

We got fucked up to like midnight. Yeah, that was a good night. That was a fun night, dude. He's tried getting hit the softball game. Dude, I remember we were singing to the crowd and the came up and it was like, oh, Taylor's not a big lure. And the whole crowd lost it. I was like, God damn it.

Wednesday the 12th, right? Wednesday, 12. Maybe. Oh, maybe. We can't tease him too much like that. No, no, no. I'll tell you what I do love, you saying maybe. because what I've noticed with this beer Olympics thing is everyone wants to say yes first

everyone wants to come in but absolutely 100% and then schedules get in the way so the fact that you said maybe made me feel a whole lot better when that no comes for sure this conversation I'm like man I feel real good about that no when it comes by I get it you're busy and you knew you were going to be a little bit busy no I was about yeah I got you it looks like so you got to do American Idol in the voice which one which one do you prefer yeah pick one thank you Will what a friend I think that question came from JP, didn't it? Yeah, yeah.

You're such a good friend. You re-broke up Florida, Georgia line. Any chance we had of that reunion tour happened in the next three. Y'all just went, pow, pow, pow. Maybe it's a start of something special. Maybe it's a start of something special. Hopefully. I mean, you want them to get back together.

They were putting absolute banger after banger out. And behind the scenes, it was way worse than it was in public eye, too. So after American Idol and the voice, you're also going to, where's your alliance with BK and Tyler? Thanks. Great question. You want to know who I'm voting for, motherfucker? Yeah, yeah, tell us you're voting for. I can't vote.

That right has been restricted. That rate has been restricted. I love the voice. I love them both. Obviously, the political answer. I do love them both. What are some differences experiencing them both? I've had more time with American Idol.

So I've done more with them. So by default, I know more about everything. Their production crew, it's obviously I'm going to, it's hard because Reba's at the voice now and Dan and Sarah at the voice too. It was easy even just a year or two ago because it was like all the homies are at American Idol.

Luke Ryan's at American Idol. Lionel Richie loves me. I fucking love him. Katie Perry is the coolest person ever. Yeah. By the way, Katie Perry is a boss. She is so gangster. but the voice now with Reba and Dan, dude,

Dan and say it's really cool over there. I got to mentor at American Idol, though. That's special, dude. That's special, and that was different. I spent a whole day, and I could not believe how excited I was to do it. Like, when I started, like, getting to hear their stories and seeing that I could actually help,

because I just assumed, dude, if you've made it to the top 24 on American Idol, I don't got much advice for you. You know what I'm saying? Like, what do I know that you haven't figured out? You know what I'm saying? I'll go out here and sing off key right now. You know what I'm saying?

I'll fuck this whole thing. I'll bomb it. You know what I'm saying? I'm two drinks away from going completely tone deaf in this whole thing. You know what I'm saying? I don't think I can help. But when I realized that they were young and had never even, some of these people had never left their home state.

And here they are in Hawaii. And they're fixing to go live in L.A. for three weeks with a bunch of strangers and battled it out on national TV. I was like, I can help these people. You know what I mean? It's like you think about how that's a moment in their life that they'll to their great grandchildren that they're alive. You know what I mean?

Brother, they came in first or 15th. That's a wild story that I'm getting to be a part of. So by default, probably American Idol. We're going to answer. You wanted a direct answer? That was a direct answer. We got him. Yeah, TMZ, Jelly Roll hates the voice.

Yeah, for sure. And I love the voice. You've always enjoyed that kind of stuff, though, because you'll go to the local juvenile and everything else. I feel like, and you can correct me if I'm wrong, but you strike me as somebody who, there's been so many people who's imprinted, on you that when now that you have the platform and the voice that you do you know you can have

that same effect on a young you for sure for sure and i also draw from the times that nobody was there like the juvenile thing is a stroke because the only people that came to see us when i was in juvenile were the gideon's are you familiar with the gideon organization have you ever been at a hotel and open up a drawer and there was a bible yeah yeah that's the gideons so what they do is they mass produce bibles and give them away free they give them the people incarcerated hotels motels across America. They just give away Bibles. That's kind of their end.

Led by kind of a bunch of older men. But they would just come in and give us Bibles once a month. The New Testaments because they'd fit in our pocket. And which I appreciate because I read the Bible because of that. But nobody ever came in that like spoke. Like since I partner with this juvenile up here, Joyner Lucas, Machine Gun Kelly. We've had Titan players go.

D. Hop hit me. He wants to go. Y'all are waiting on me to send you. y'all a date right now you've hit me about that more than anybody will about hit you and d hop d hop hits me a lot like yo when am i going to the juvenile like it's so cool to see that you know it's like man we never had nobody that cool come talk to us like me and m gk went in there the other day and played spades for four hours with every unit no shit you clean house clean house running dimes on the dog you know what i mean it was awesome and it's like the coolest thing is

most of these kids in here don't know either one of us really they might have known him because he's like Uber famous, so they know me because I'm local and the studios named after me in the facility. You know what I'm saying? Oh, that's Jelly Roll? Yeah, they're not like jelly. They're not in there banging, save me.

You know what I'm saying? It's not a big hit in there. They might. Yeah, you never know. You know what I'm saying? But they watch me on TV now. When I have an award show, they watch. That's why I shouted them out at the CMTs.

I knew they'd be watching. Oh, that is awesome. But, yeah, so I go in there because I just want them to see people. Like, I don't know, man. It'd be really just to see things you don't see before. Like just people to go in there and treat them like humans or kids. Like I just want to treat them like kids. I go play spades and talk shit to them.

You know what I mean? Like it's fun. You know, what they need. We forget their kids. And you know, the coolest thing is Judge Calloway has been coming in there. She went in there when we did the songwriting program and wrote songs with the kids. She went in there when I went to see them last time to say hi and watch us play spades and play games. Who's Joe Callow?

Callow. Judge Callow. Judge Callow. Judge Callow is one of the judges of juvenile. Okay. You know how awesome that is for them to see her be a human, not this. this godlike figure in a gown and a gavel. And it's so good for her to see them be 16.

Right. You know what I mean? Create more empathy. Right. Because all the people walking through her door every day, eventually you get numb to it. Yeah. And all you see, all you see, you don't see the age and think of them as a kid. You see specially aggravated robbery.

Right. You see attempted homicide. You see their charges. Because this juvenile down here is only houses serious crimes. It's like when I take y'all there, you'll see. There's kids in there looking at 20, 30, 40, 50 years. It's crazy. It's sad.

It's really sad. It's really dark. That's where I was for so many years. I spent years in that, same facility. Music City Miracle, you watched it there. I had the funniest moment in there last week, Taylor. I'm talking to this kid and we're doing the music program and Ernest is up there singing or something.

He goes, why do you do this? And I go, why do I do what? He goes, why do you come here and sing for us? And I was like, because I was here. He was like, oh, you were somewhere like this? And I was like, no, I was here. He was like in a juvenile or a group home or something. I was like, here.

motherfucker right here in this kitchen right here I worked in there I served food guy named Oscar was the kitchen I was in these sales he was like oh you were here I was like yeah man here and instantly I watched him look at me a little differently right you know because

it wasn't like I was from Minnesota or somewhere else like I was in this juvenile you know what I mean once he got it took him so long it also made me realize you know that's also so humbling for me I'm going and serving dudes it really like I said they know me but they know it wasn't as cool when I brought joiner Lucas that was a big deal yeah when i facetamed NBA young boy in there they

lost their shit when jelly roll walks in they're like whatever you want to play spades old dude you know what i'm like guys play spades man how's your case is that area is that all pretty much Nashville and tennessee yeah it's all Nashville you'll have a couple like from columbia if they can't house them up there so uh gallatin if they can't hold them up there but it's a serious charge from like a county over when you go when you go there is it pretty much look the exact same or there's been some upgrades like how does it feel walking back into that building after you spent so much time in there. Exactly.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? It's kind of sad. Yeah. It's kind of sad. The good news is they've been approved because of the stadium moving. All that land's getting brought down eventually. So in the next three years, they're going to move to a new juvenile too. Nice.

Which is cool because the county has agreed to let me get in early and build the studio in it from the beginning. So I'll be able to build a real state. Because right now we've had to put a studio in a concrete and steel closet in every unit. So I've had to build like five of them there. Where here I'm going to be able to build like real educational unit and education. I'm going to be able to dump a couple million dollars into this place and really build it. That's cool, man.

Yeah. You bought up that new stadium. First concert. New stadium. Jelly roll? I have a 2027? Can I tell you the craziest dream I have? Hmm.

This is like me dreaming big. I dream to be the last show at Nissan Stadium and the first show at Nissan Stadium. that would be hype as fuck wouldn't that be like how much more poetic could it be for the local kid you know what I'm saying to do jelly rolling for you? I tell you what my big

you know I'm doing a stadium for CMAs this year Saturday night the Saturday night CMA I'll do the 30 minute set but I think we're going to swing for it next year really that's a breaking news too and that'll be the last concert that's what everybody who wants to know

why I didn't do Nashville this year wasn't because of the CMA fans It was because I think next year I want to really go for it. If you're creating a lineup for that last one in the old Nissan Stadium, who's a lineup? Oh, goodness. Man.

Great question. Thanks, brother. The jelly rolling friends. It's like, Yeah, the jelly rolling friends. Who are the ideal? Who are the ideal? Well, you got to bring Ernest.

Because he's a Nashville guy. That's like a must do. You know what you do? You got to bring all the Nashville guys to some capacity. So like 10 Penny, Chris Young, you know what I mean? Like Dustin Lynn. it's the obviouses.

Yeah. All the Middle Tennessee guys have got to come straight in. You know what I mean? Yeah. You know who's from Middle Tennessee? I didn't know. And I was so embarrassed by this. The singer from Lady A.

Hillary. Oh, for real? She grew up in Donaldson. Yeah, I've no. That's over my name. That hurt my feelings. They've been cleaning up for about two decades. Yeah.

They're like massive. Yeah. I'll chalk that one up to me. They're a huge deal. Yeah. I believe her name's Hillary. Well, there's three of them, my fault. Yeah.

Her name's Hillary. I'm sure I'm not butchering it. And, yeah, she's from Nashville too. And she came to me the other day about that and just kind of, we got to really talk about some Nashville stuff. So I'd do those. Then I would extend to the Tennessee portion of it. So I would love to have, I don't know if I bloke.

This could be some of my strict. So I can't give all these away. Yeah, yeah, you're right. But I would reach out to my Memphis friends. I would have a couple of my Memphis friends come up and be surprised guests. And I'd have a couple of my East Tennessee friends be surprised guests. Okay. I would reach throughout the state for sure.

I'd make it a Tennessee thing. And I love it too because of people. who are day one jelly roll people they're already like he's talking about so and so he's talking about so and i have no idea who he's talking about yeah jake you have any idea what on who or who from either east senate or mephis oh no i mean i can i can probably guess on who he's hinting at yes dude the day one jelly roll i was just thinking about that fucking freestyle you have we go my p o ask i hanged drywall i swear to god that freestyle me my friends were watching it two weekends ago like 2 a.m.

We're just like all standing up. But like, this is fucking so good. I'm proud of that freestyle. It stands the test of time. It is a good freestyle. For the record. So you all know.

All of my old music did not stand the test of time for the record. But the 10 minute freestyle did. Dude, what was that transition like going from rap to country? It was easy because I was just starting to sing a lot more and play the guitar. And I was just, I was growing as a human and as a man. And I don't want to say I was running out.

a subject matter, but I really felt what Andre said when he was like, man, I think he's in his 50s now, late 40s or whatever it is. He's like, what am I going to rap about? You know, we're just understand, we've never, hip-hop's like the UFC. It's not as old as we think it is.

Like we look at the UFC, like this has been around 100 years, people have been fighting forever. Yeah, but the UFC's really been around 30, 25. Something like that. Like if you compare to how long footballs, been around. People have been throwing leather balls and calling it touchdowns. You know what I mean? Like in comparison. The same

thing happened with hip hop. Like we don't know what that tailwind looks like. We're just watching our first real generation of hip, real commercial success. Commercially successful rappers age. Right. The ice cubes. You know what I mean? Like we're just now seeing that happen.

So I didn't even know how hip hop would age to be honest. Because all I saying was guys like Jay-Z at the peak when they were at their absolute best, say I'm too old to do it. I'm done. Yeah. You know what I mean? So I kind of always had it in my head of like, okay, this is a young man's sport. You know?

One of a Jay-Z's best fuck-you moments. To me, I just found out about this, the lead singer of Oasis. Wonderwall, have you seen that clip? This is. He was headlining. He's headlining at a festival. And it's like, it used to be like just a strictly rock and roll festival, right? And Jay-Z is like the number one dude.

And the guy from Oasis. This is 2008 in Glastonbury, by the way. It's one of the biggest festivals ever. basically goes off on Jay-Z like this is about rock and roll this is disgusting ball ball that kind of goes in on Jay-Z Jay-Z opens his show

singing Wonderwall he comes out singing wonderful and then he goes I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one and he goes into it he's like obviously not playing the guitar but this shit goes so hard

no no he's just being petty this is how he started this show by the way this is what makes him the king we share a birthday and I take pride in that you turn that up you turn that up Jack

headphones can you hear it put those headphones on jelly does jelly have any do you have headphones damn jelly got no headphones sorry I know what he's doing here I've watched this a thousand times

I'm such a fan so this dude's been talking shit to him yeah this is this is literally how he starts the show and jazey didn't say a word in the media people hey what do you think he ignored radio ignored news all that and he comes out and just shits on this cat

but yeah that's basically it when you said j z i was like damn that is awesome yeah you also brought up our boy m gk yeah which i know you did me a solid that night at the super bowl yeah he was uh the first time him and i met i think i told this already on the podcast he was obviously going through some i think the thing with uh that ufc fighter shon strickland so he was kind of off do a little shoulder into me whatever and i see jelly roll a couple nights later i was like yeah i met mcgk because you know i'm a huge fan I was like, yeah, it was all right, blah, blah, blah. Fast forward two nights later, we're at Caesars in this, like, private room.

It's me, Jelly, Dana, Dana squad, and he walks in. And I was, like, in the bathroom, came back. And this man was so fucking nice to me. To the point where he's like, yo, I was sending you my music. You can give me pointers. I'm thinking, Jelly must have said something to this cat. I had to have said something to this guy. He is like the most misunderstood dude.

You know what I mean? You caught him in those moments where he's coming. constantly misunderstood because he just doesn't understand this all still. And his mind, he's like, I don't even know this UFC fighter. Like, why would he even fuck with me like that? Yeah, he's more hard at him too. Yeah, he's like, which I love Sean Strickland too, so it sucks to kind of, you know, I'm such a fan of both, but it's like, MGK just looks at it like, and he had the

realest thing he said to me one time. He said, man, I just feel like if I didn't have, make the fashion choices I made, I would have never caught all the shit I've caught. You know what I mean? He's like I feel like I kind of get unfairly picked on just because I'm, you know, I'm artsy. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? He's like, I'm uniquely myself. He's like, but like he's the sad thing that you might not know it.

He's like, but he says it just like this. He's like, don't let the pain and nails fail you. Like I'm like a dude's dude. He really is. He's like a go, like, wrestle with you in the yard, go party with you all night. Like he's like a dude. You know what I mean? Like he's a funny kind of dude, man.

And he's a, you've seen it that night. He's charming. He's funny. He's a sweet dude. but its headlines would have he believe he's a monster. You know what I mean? And he's got a chip on his shoulder. And there is a little bit of that.

But he's also, I remind people to remember where people are from. This dude is from the east side of Cleveland, Ohio. I don't know if you've ever been to Cleveland, Ohio, except for the time you spent at the Brown Stadium. Yeah. But you've seen it. That was it.

Yeah. And I'm willing to bet the sun wasn't shining a bunch. I love that city to death. It's one of my favorite places to play because it's hardworking America. It's a great safe. But it's a tough fucking town, dog. But listen, I compare all the same. those towns like that.

That Rust Belt, Pittsburgh's the same way. That's a tough town. Which is why the shows are great. Listen, this isn't a save. This is real. I would rather play

anywhere in the Rust Belt than anywhere L.A. and down. Damn, that's a shot of Arizona. No, no, no. I love Arizona too.

Arizona's dope. You know what's happening to Arizona. I'm saying coastal. No, the only way I go to Ohio is because Ohio State and I went to Michigan. Sometimes those super major

cities can be a little too cool for the show. Oh, really? They'll enjoy the show, but like, when you go play Indiana, they lose their shit on a Tuesday. Yeah. You go play L.A. on a Saturday, they'll get out of their seat for seven songs. I think L.A. L.A. is going to be the toughest places.

L.A.'s got to be one of the hardest places to play. Yeah. Because everyone's in the music industry or an acting industry. Everybody wants to be. Everyone thinks they're sick. That's why my success in Nashville is so mind-blowing to people. That's why it's always been a big deal that I can sell tickets here because most artists can't.

Really? Yeah, man. When you play and ask so many people come in. Yeah. I hate to cut this off, but I have to be so bad. Did you drink too much water there, big fella? Yeah. I suck me down a liter and feel great.

Hey, you with the sucking. That's a third time. No, I'm telling you. Fuck, dude. Golly, man, Pauls. Just as I can let it go. What did you do to Willie this morning? Why is he pinned?

Y'all drink last night or no. No, we didn't nothing. We haven't, dude, we drink it. spring tour. Are y'all really, what are y'all doing right now? Like three pods a week? No, I just want. We did our spring tour.

Our spring tour is like Falcons. We just did two weeks ago or last week. Yeah, I've seen the Bajon. And that was, is how you say Bazon Robinson. Bison and Robeson. That kid's a stud too. Talk about a kid who's just like. What a cool personality.

Yes. He's awesome. Rahim Morris, the head coach. He's like a dude's like talking shit. We walked in the facility and he's legit like, hey, you guys do whatever the fuck you want. Like, we're walking on the field while they're doing practice. And a lot of NFL teams do not do that.

then obviously Kirk's the man too yeah but we during those spring tours we'll do like three episodes in the week but right now we're i mean it's Tuesday afternoons or Tuesday mornings is when you're going to catch bus with the boys how was uh how was the ran one it hadn't came out yet i'm excited about oh ran bro you're gonna like ran the way he talks about rabble how he left i think the people listening now that one came out last week but he was he's like one of those guys too where with john robinson how he was a gym he kept it tight like the patriots they made It's like everything was like on need to know basis. Kind of kept to himself, kept a major like arm's length with the players.

With Ray, he walks in the facility, dude, and everyone's like loves him. He's sitting down. He's eating with the boys. Like it keeps it very personal. It's a completely different energy in the Titans facility right now. Which, low key being a Titans fan, dude, you should be hype right now. I am. It's going to be.

I'm going to be. Man, I mean, I think Will Levis has got the eye of the tiger. I've said it from day one. Yeah. I really do. It felt really good to hear. Callahan feel the same way. Whenever he said,

I think he said that was one of the things that made him want to take the job here. Yeah, and Andy, the quarterback's been with before? Pate and Manning, Joe Burrow. Stafford? Get out of here.

I'm watching. I'm like, this is insane. Oh, no, he's going to go. I really think the Tigers are going to go nuts to the outside of the field. We're going to go to a practice sometime in the summit summer. I'll take you the day you should come. Yeah, well, we're going to go there and just shoot content.

Absolutely. That would be awesome. But before Willie left, we were talking about MGK. You guys talked about changing genres. Was that, I think you guys got on me? He was one of the ones that inspired me.

Really? For sure, yeah. Whenever he, his fearless tread in the rock about the same time I was releasing Save Me. It was so funny because two dudes that came up doing the same thing. And there was a time me and MGK had real beef. We were very competitive. There was a time where there could only be one white rapper at a time. You know, it was kind of that thing.

And Hillman Yellow Wolf had problems. Eminem just crowns the next one. I was going to say you guys just putting Eminem and them in a different stratosphere. It's between the second place. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, 100%. I know Him and Kel's had their thing. but at the end of the day

Eminem's the goat. I'm not gonna, you know what I mean? Like that dude is the fucking greatest of all time. Yeah. Period. No discussion. Yeah.

End of discussion. Yeah. Podcast over. Period. It's kind of like when Stapleton gets best male vocalist and you're just like, we should just call it the Chris Stapleton award and he should give it away.

Yeah. That's what we did with Eminem. You know what I'm saying? Like we all know that it's like, you know, but and back then we took, you know, it's a bunch of street factors to it. We only squashed the beef because some street dudes got together and was like, yo,

y'all need to figure this out because y'all are fucking up some money. We got some shit going on if this is interfering with outside of y'all being two goofy white rappers. You know what I mean? We were like, all right, cool. What was the beef? Yeah, I was going to say when you're saying, figure it out. I was a young fucking hater. And I thought I was just a loyal writer because, you know, whatever.

But at the end of the day, I was just desperate. You know what I mean? Trying to get it. Yeah, just fucking desperate. Just being a fucking stone cold hater, you know. And had to call and be a man and say that one day. You know what I mean? And we've been cool ever since, man.

He's a great dude, man. That dude is a, he's salt of the earth. I look, I'm encouraging him right now to go do long for him. I'm like, go do soles. Go do Joe. Go get on the bus. Like, go do the rounds. Like, go.

If the world's seen what I see, they would look at you different. Right. You know what I mean? But they only see these real artistic pictures you post and these wild outfits and these headlines. You know what I mean? It's like they don't really get to see your heart And you've got such a good heart

Like go show the world your heart Like this dude flies to Cleveland Every single weekend To watch his daughter play volleyball Yeah, that's all time Every weekend Like won't tour or do shows During volleyball season

Like, it's just what he's on That's just who that dude is And I'm like, go tell that story You know what I mean? Where's his hesitation From going and doing these long form shows? He's kind of getting willing to You know what I mean?

He's just, you know He's been misunderstood and outcasted it for so long he don't even know how to approach it yeah it's got to be hard man and he's got like an introverted personality too it's there's that fear of like if they're hate me like this like what if i show them myself for real yeah they actually they can actually hate me right right yeah because right now he could probably sit there and look at all the hate and be like well they don't really know me for sure i'm misunderstood the minute you allow them to understand you and hate you right that's a new fear unlocked yeah yeah and he's also growing he's

young man he's a little younger than me i i even like when more had this incident with the barstool, I got to remind people that, like, I could not, as famous as I am today, if me and Bunny would have been this famous when we got together, we'd have gotten canceled immediately. For sure.

Cancel before cancel even happens? For sure. We would have blown it. We'd have fucked it. You'd have fucked up. You'd have got in trouble every way you can get in trouble to Sunday. We'd have been,

I am not proud to say this and this isn't the headline I'm looking for. But I have, I've never thrown a bar store. off one of those roofs, but I've thrown shit off of them before I've been drunk enough to throw a plastic cup, you know what I mean? Like, I'm not proud of that neither in my early 30s, late 20s. Big different, but what I'm saying is, is that

you're not fucking far. We got escorted out by the police too. You know what I'm saying? It's like, I've got enough, you know, we got in bar fights back then, like, real deal, like, we were living a totally different thing. Like, I just be patient, be graceful. You're talking about the most famous,

artist in America and he's 32 years old and he's from spit bucket east Tennessee yeah you know what I mean like man have a little grace which by the way that's one of your East Tennessee friends you would call in to do the show you see I'm picking those pieces out huh that weed you gave me I'm in flow state right now I'm telling you dude right but no it is crazy and I and I'm not saying he wasn't talented but it's like man give my man give my man some grace y'all for sure I'm not I thank God he blessed me because at 32 years old, I'm not going to Congress and talking about fentanyl.

Right. But at 40 years old, I got a 16-year-old that I'm afraid of doing drugs. Yeah. You know what I mean? You just life is perspective. Yeah, his son's going to grow. He's going to grow, man. My man just made a bad mistake, dog.

He was over-celebrating. Could you imagine being that famous? I'd be over-celebrating, too. Crazy. You know what I'm saying? Hey, but a bar stool, a bar stool downtown? Yeah, that was crazy. I think he catches a lot of heat, too, because he's had some,

he's had some dust-ups recently over the last. that's like a couple years or since the COVID stuff. Yeah. What I'm saying? Then you go out, you're like, I'm going to go do rehab. Like you're going to go through all this stuff. And then you have an incident like the bar stool. I know.

It is nuts. And you're that, like you said, the most famous guy. Did y'all see Schultz when he came to town? Did y'all see that? No. Two things, sidebar. We'll get back to that. But because this is parallel.

Andrew Schultz, our, that he's doing right now the life, might be the best, and I'm a comedy fan. Yeah, might be the best hour I've ever seen. Really? Oh shit. I'm not bullshit.

And I went to, I went and seen everybody comedy week. I hung out with Tony Hinchcliff again. That's my, one of my best friends. Tony Hinchcliff's fucking a murderer. I got to watch and work out some of them roast jokes at the Rhyman.

Really? Yeah. Dude, it was so cool. You obviously watched the roast. Oh, God. How incredible. He owned the show and Will was talking to him.

Yeah, bro. And say what you were saying because the blog is going to come out. Right. Because this will come out. This CMA fest is this weekend. Yeah. But he was at, we were in Austin to do two Bears one cave. And I was on before him.

I did an hour with them. And then as we're sitting and eaten, you know how they have that comic Dave who does all the grilling, the barbecue and everything else. We're in there eating. Like, oh, Tony's next. So Tony Hinchcliff comes in. And I'm like, oh, shit. Like, I know you've heard this, but you obviously absolutely murdered it.

It's been crazy to see. you're just not overnight success but the way that mainstream has seen you and your popularity in the lot since then and yeah he was like yo step outside with me while i rip this dart like when he's smoking a cigarette he's like i'll be in there in a minute and we're just out there talking and he's telling me how he basically squeezed in more time of how everything unfolded during the roast because they were only giving him he could stand up and roast like the table he was at and then he like kind of talked his way in the night before to do to do what he did he knew in his mind he was going to do that but he had to keep it close to the vest because there's like this

is going to be a situation where i walk up there on stage and i do everything that he basically did oh no no he's uh that dude owned the night to me him and nicky owned it and he even talks through that strategy because he's like i'm two hours after nicky so you're feeling the energy in the room and i probably i probably wouldn't have done these jokes up front if i was at the beginning or if i was right after or at a different time he talks about the instinct and the feel thing that through it all. You can tell. Like he's, I mean, he's, I think, 11 years, 17 years of comedy, 11 years with the live show. He is one of the greatest comedians.

I said this one, I got to introduce him with the rhyming because we've become really good buddies, is he has done more for new comedians in the last 10 years than any comic ever has ever. Because of that 60 second. Because of that Kill Tony show. He's been putting comedians on for a decade plus now. 11 years he's been putting comedians on. His timing is impeccable. his reading a room, his roasting.

He's one of the original roasters with Jeff Ross. You look back at young baby-faced Tony Henscliffe just slaughtering people. But I think he owned the night for this reason. He was the one comedian that you could tell. He didn't just make you laugh. He made you go, you know what I mean? Right. Every single just, he's just, Zach Crowell said it the best,

he's a knife of a man. You know what I'm saying? He's just a knife of a man. And watching him walk and me being, like really good friends with him when it was over. And then watching Kevin kick it back, like, hold on. We don't need to gloss by this one, y'all.

We just watch something happen here. Yeah. Let's let this simmer for a second. And you just watched all them comedians on stage loving on them. Yeah. He's even blushing a little bit. It was like, clip this to me so I could send it to Tony. Yeah.

But it's like, man, that dude watching him. And I'm looking, I'm seeing myself in all these parallels. stories too. It's that like when he wins, I feel like I won a little bit kind of thing. Right. And I think that's how y'all feel when I win. It's how I feel when y'all win. Because I feel like we all kind of started, not at the same time, but we were all at the same place around the same time. All hungry, all like doing our thing. All hungry and trying to figure it out. He just moved to Austin about the same time. Y'all were busting the boat. And that's when it really started, you know, Till Tony's been going, but it's when it started

growing bigger legs and getting bigger. Then we watched the bus grow. I've watched the same thing happened with Schultz. When me and Schultz wrote, open her up in 2020. Mm-hmm. You know, he was doing two nights at Zanis. Ms. Schultz is doing arenas everywhere in America. He's doing a 40-something multiple nights. He's a stud too.

He is. That hour. Tony murdering? Yes. Murdering. He even talked about knowing him doing all the rest and everything else. He's doing it for the audience that is like a part of his show. He knows there's so many people beyond the walls of it.

Some of those jokes feeling uncomfortable, which is what we love. It's like, you're sitting in there like, man, you got to wonder what the temperature is in that room when these jokes are being said. But he talks about it through that lens, like about how much of a game it is, like in real time, like being an athlete on the field. And he's from Youngstown, Ohio. Oh, yeah. So we were connected.

From a poorest side of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Which is already a poor side of Ohio. I was got a couple of shoutouts on this podcast, man. He says, he says he runs his operation. Shout Detroit. I actually love Detroit. What my favorite place to play, actually.

Literally. But he was saying how he runs his operation like a college football team because you got the stoops, the Polini's that grew up in Youngtime, a very hard-nosed town. But he was cool, man, super nice dude. And he's an old school. He's a comics comic too. Every night he's at that comedy mothership,

and he's downstairs after his set, smoking a cigarette, talking to carry the bartender at Mitzies, and running back material with the boys. That's awesome. Like, I get to sit in there and watch it every time I go. I've got to go, I think, four times this year already, just because we've been out there so much for the awards

and I spent a week out there for the CMTs. But I've, you know, it's just, he's just who he is. He lives in. Yeah. I love people that live their craft. Right. That's why we're all drawn to earnest or y'all are drawn to me, like people who are like, I love old school music men too, like them dudes that show up in boots and dusters and hats

and they just look dirty and they'd be like they'd be playing guitar for 20 years straight. The best guitar players there. That's it. I love those dudes. And I love people that truly live their craft. You can tell his life is. dedicated to that style of comedy for sure yeah it's incredible to me because when you were talking about meeting tony and i was like yeah it's crazy this thing he did just blew up and you

were telling me it was 11 years i so i felt a victim to seeing something that's now popular and not realizing how long it took to get to that point right which is so many things i feel like casual fans of whatever don't see right because he is no he is a layer of the clips been in the trenches it's the 10 year overnight success store yeah the 10 year overnight success It is crazy, man. It is. Which is funny because it's fun to see you in that business now because y'all two came from the opposite business.

Yeah. I guess it's still kind of the same though. Y'all played football for 15 years for free. You know what I mean? Before y'all went on for it to change your life in every way it could. But it's like the meat of your career is that 21 to 29 where like they say an artist doesn't hit his actual peak until he's like 27. it's like the artistic peak.

You know what I mean? So it's just, it's just a different game, man. It is a weird world. It's weird transitioning worlds too. Like going from one to now doing this. Like playing football forever. It's all you know.

Yeah. Because now you're half a decade into the 10-year grind. Yeah. You know what I mean? Absolutely. But you're already getting big calls. Cool calls. Really cool calls.

Yeah. I tell you what, at five years in, I wasn't getting cool calls. Yeah. I can tell you that. No cool calls were happening. Five years in for me. We will see.

We will see. We need you to watch when it comes out. I'm in. I'm just, I'm supporting you in general, but whatever. You know me. Speaking of cool calls, our agents on the way over, he's like out of breath sprinting around the airport. Oh, is he?

Yeah, one on the other side. I had a bite of food. I was so hungry. I had one bite, took a piss. And I was, oh, climb, what's up? He, uh, loves you. Oh, don't. He's sprinting around the air.

Like, once it was, I saw the group chat when I was taking a piss. And it was like, uh, all right. He's like, hey, I landed. I'll head right on over and stuff like that. And Steve was like, okay, all good. Take your time. The boys are in the middle of an interview with jelly roll, and everybody's just hitting the chat,

like, oh, Klein's going to lose his mind. He's like, I'm out of breath trying to fucking get to my Uber. I'm out of breath trying to get to my Uber. I want to meet him. He represents y'all on the live booking side? No, he does a podcast. He represents the busing brand in general. Wow, it's a real thing.

Yes. Dave Portnoe's best friend. Really? Yeah, he loves agents. Yeah. Yeah, our deals. up we got we got it's contract year for the contract year for the boys yeah I need that

how y'all feel about it it's all good man I mean you'd kind of just do the content and then whenever the conversations come up you just have the conversations yeah but then you gotta put in your back pocket and just keep moving forward kind of meet you where you're at I hate to circle back but you know me the Andrew Schultz show yes

best show best I've ever seen and I'm sure he won't mind me stepping on this joke because I don't think he's gonna use it for a special obviously but you know he does kind of crowd work at the beginning of all this show is kind of what he, you know, Schultz is just a sharp guy. He's just, he's one of the best comedy comedians ever.

And he came out talking about the Morton-Wallant's bit about, you know, because it just happened. It was like the week of. And he was like, we're not mad at him though, right? And he goes, because we don't really know

who he was throwing that bar still at. He said, if he was throwing in a bachelorette party, he is the hero Nashville need. You know what I'm saying? It's not the one we deserve, but what we need. But just hearing him,

just how sharp Schultz is. Bro, he just seems so, knowledgeable and he understands like enough, it feels like in every area of life to where you sit there like how does this man come up with all of this stuff? Yeah. Even watching the show, is it flagrant?

That's his podcast? Bro, it is so good. And he just had a CIA operative on there. For sure. Or an ex-CIA guy and they're going back and forth a whole bunch of you watched that little 30-second clip showing you what the show's going to be about. God damn, this is going to be an awesome show.

He does a great job. He's very with it, very well-spoken. Very curious. Yeah. Yeah, he does a great job. His hour is, it's one of the tightest hours I've ever seen. Really? It is special.

You did say it's the best hour you've ever seen. It might be the best hour I've ever seen. It's in the top five. I'm high, so I'm spitball in here. I don't want to get held to the cross on the number one ever. I will hold you to that. But it's definitely a top five for sure. It is not seen it.

Side unseen when it comes out. I put it this way, there's two moments in it that I tear up. It's like, it's a one-man show almost. It was special, man. God, I can't wait. We had the shot to go when he was, he was at the Ryman? Was he at the Ryman? He was at the Grand Ole Opry House.

Y'all should have came. I came out to some. There was something happening that weekend where we weren't in town. Neither of us were. Because Derek Poston, you know Derek? Yeah, of course. He was like, hey, you and the boys, you guys want to come out to see Shull's show? Yeah.

I was like, man, nobody's in town this week. Derek killed it that night, too. Bro, even seeing him, he's been ascending. Like, that's, Darren Bates. That's like one of DB's best friends. Really? And he was on when. my time on the raw room

and then we're over at AJ's house one night just cut it up and he's telling serial he's like talking about serials and scary movies and seeing like him and who's his who's his like co-host in his show and I know I'm putting us on the spot there but seeing seeing those two

at that moment of time and now seeing the circles that they're in like the circles that Derek you're talking about on Derek's show or on Andrew's show Derek okay oh because Derek has a pot too I know he kind of sit doesn't he sit in now on the Shulzer Show? He's like part of that crew. Well, he's been,

him and Shult and him are super super. But seeing him in all those circles and then Rogan, Tony, Tony was bringing him up. Yeah. It's just like, it's, it's cool to see.

Because everybody in that community is like, you're one person removed from everybody, man. Who is this guy? Derek Poston? Go ahead. Bring him on a lot, Jack. He's a hoot and a half, man.

He was on here. Dude, he was on the back of the bus when Shab was on with a Chandler and I, that one that the very first time in summer year number one he was in the back swing it out he is funny funny man dude he's yes he really is he's special i think i've met this dude and matter of fact the shaw when we went to see shaw but zany's posting was one of the openers oh that i have one of the three yeah one of the three openers no he's super funny and it seemed like he's like you know ascending i'll tell you another good hour to watch right now on netflix is brian simpson

Brian Simpson, pull him up. It's live from the comedy mothership. He's the first one that came live from the comedy mothership. He's one of the first ones to move down there. So the cool thing about this was, it's on Netflix. I got to experience him in the club the first time, and he stole the night. Like I left, he had a bit, I won't say it because it's on his special, that he said, I heard it one time that night, and I've told it a thousand times probably to anybody who will listen.

It's one of the funniest bits I've ever heard. It's just a one funny bit. The whole special is great, but he had a 15 minutes set on a Ron White show the first time I ever seen him. Yeah. And I left thinking about that bit. You know what I mean? That's what I left thinking about. I wonder what those headliners think when they have a guy like that who just kills.

You really want them on your show? Yeah. People walking away not thinking about you, thinking about them instead? No, do they love that, though? It makes them step it up. I've seen them talk about it in the green rooms. Really? It's the most comedians.

I heard there's a lot of competition and comedy. but I've only experienced the groups of people that love each other you know what I'm saying? So when they're like no trust me comedy's not always like this

I'm like it's all I've ever seen It's like a lot of it's all you It's your true. The homies yeah My truth is the 12 friends I've made in comedy All love the fuck out of each other Work together boost each other up

And they're all damn near arena acts now You know what I mean? Yeah There's got to be high school If you think all the What's like the music business right? It's like this Nashville's high schoolish There's artists that you get clicks

there's artists that are, you know, they're the homies. Songwriters are the same way. They're kind of all right with the same people. They'll let somebody in and out every now and then a rent, but it's all clicking. You're right, it's all high school. Then you kind of hate on the circles that are not in the circle. It happens.

That always happens. Jelly Roll M.G.K., prime example. Yeah. Right. Not the same circles at one point. Decide to hate on each other. Not even on each other. I was the hater. The sad part was I was the end of it.

It's so hard to eat that. Yeah. That it was all me. You know what I'm saying? God damn. He's like, you guys got a squash. beef and MGK's like, what are you talking about? He's like, why does this guy hate me? You know what I'm saying? He did get all those like all black tattoos. Yeah, yeah, he blacked

it out. What's your, what's your, uh, thought about that? What's your stance? I'll probably butcher this right now, but I think it was somebody from maybe not Lent Biscuit, but uh, I don't know. This has been happening. This is an age old rock and roll thing. Ronnie Radkeekie, my buddy from falling in reverse, has the blackout tats. There's another big band that does it. A 21 pile of paints. There's a bunch of bands that do that on stage that just paint.

It's a thing. What he did it for and I appreciate this and I don't want to share his story. I'll let him share it. But this was more about a thing,

him, he's like, it's not the word in this climate. Yeah, yeah, definitely. He's making a big change

in his life. Machine Gunn Kelly's transition. No, no, don't do that to me, Tyler. No, that's a joke.

Oh, that is wrong. He's making big changes in his life. He's like really trying to become a new person. Yeah. He's,

he's kind of in that, I remember when I did it. You know what I mean? He's done it before, but he's shedding that last bit of that, that old mentality away. And I think that was something to do with his tattoos. People hate on the all black thing.

I thought it a couple years ago. You got to have the right, yeah, you've got to have the right body type for it. I think the first time I've seen Ronnie do it. I think it's insane. But, hey,

you know, I can also tell you, I've thought about doing it. I hate so many of my tattoos. Not everybody had the privilege of like getting tattoos. They love, Like, we were getting scratched on in Motel Sixes from a guy that made one out of a guitar string and a boom box. Yeah.

You know what I'm saying? It's like, you know, somebody's tattoos suck. You know what I'm saying? Hey, my tattoo artist is in town. Yeah, you got one in town next week? Next week. Does he do cover up where? He'll do it.

Yes. Man, I'm ready to start shooting over. He did all that covering up, all that tribal and stuff like that. Yeah, he killed it. You can see it peeking through in the open spots. That's fine. I don't look bad at all. Yeah.

thing because I've thought about it too man I think it kind of good there's parts of to me I wouldn't get the tattoo but I think it kind of looks hard I think it's gaster I don't know I respect man Willie is there fucking guys out here no not at all bro we'd love to hear the story behind the all black will's gotten you hear me well has gotten in reverse he's got them too and I hate to make you do this cat bondie's blacked out like if he's trying to like cover up tats there's also the procedures where you can get removed you know that shit hurts so he went blacked out too i mean that is the neck on that thing so bad and you think that goes hard i think a certain

spots like i think like um if you had a piece of your form that was all blocked out there's another rock man that's i don't want to think i don't think it was west and you know what i think some other rock man that did but he's got the body type to do that he's got the rock ball man big piece body type Is that Trace Cyrus? Did Trace Cyrus blackout too? I haven't been on social media in a while. Looks like Trace Cyrus over there on the left. Is that Trace?

No, it's not true. Jesus Christ. That was. Hey, that's spooky. That's what that is. But I forgot who it was. The body mod thing. I don't know about the body mods.

And I'm telling you, 21 pilots, there's been a lot of bands that paint for like, like shows. So that's kind of always been a rock and roll thing. 21 Pilots, Car Radio. That song, that music video goes so hard. 21 pilots slaps, period. Yeah. They're just fucking dope.

I love it. An MC and a drummer. Like, what a cool little two-man crew. You know what I'm saying? Gangster. All the school. Just like, yo, we don't need a lot. Their production's always crazy.

Is it nuts? Their productions are great. How much thought process do you put into that with your production? Tons. I'm doing my first real arena tour this year. I've done arenas and amphitheaters last year. But because you're going from an arena to an amphitheater, there's only one way you can build a stage in an amphitheater.

It's the stage. They're all pre-built. Yeah. You know what I mean? So because I'm doing all arenas now, I've got to, like, make some cool decisions. We'll talk about a off camera, but I've got to make some, like, that whole arena becomes a canvas for you to a degree. You know what I mean? You've got a 16,000, 20,000-seat arena that you're like, I can put a stage here.

I can put something up here. I can do something here. I can have a light go here. You know, it's like it's cool. Yeah, the bridge stone, when you got in that golf cart to go the other side, he's got a shit. Yeah. He's got to get the line. And I hit the pop up with the ball.

Boom. Yeah. That did go crazy, man. With that, what else? Yeah, what else are you working on? The album, new music, like I told y'all, new music, most important thing, I want to talk about if I, I'm, I need to start talking about music again. I've been talking about, I told the jelly roll story for like two years because nobody,

you know, I was introducing myself to the world. And then I got, now I get caught up in like the headlines and like what's happening currently. Like, I need to just start talking about music. It's time to start really talking about it. music. Yeah. With your new album, like, how close are we?

Man, it's done. I just need to figure out what songs I'm keeping it. It's the 130 songs. Yeah, I always been done. I just don't know what songs I'm putting on. Yeah? I'm that over there like a number, a range that you're wanting to do on this year?

I want to do like 20-something this year because I think Morgan had it right. I think Morgan's feeding the consumption the right way. You know, I think that they dropped 36 songs last year. He's already teasing new singles, dropped like a four-pack on YouTube, did the post-single already. That posting It's hard too. It's the song of the summer.

That and Shibuzi or the song of the song. Shibuzi, man. We were banging that on the way back from Atlanta. Bang it. People hate on it too. The old country boys are like this shit. He just played live in East on Sunday night. Basement, right?

Yeah, basement east. Yeah, which is good for him. I'm proud of him to have the song of the summer, the biggest dream song in America right now, and to still go out and play clubs and shows your integrity. Yeah. Because it's like he knows he's got to learn the road.

but he's a great guy. Is he? Y'all texts me about him and I didn't know him much at the time and I was like, I don't know. And then I got to really spend some time with him at the ACMs. He is a great, great guy.

Like young, charismatic, just handsome fun, just good energy. So the ACMs, we ended up at this after, I had a little party after. And, you know, I'm old school, man.

We do the no phones thing. Yeah. So we're in there just, you know, you know, we're doing our thing, having a good time. Yeah.

And, uh, there's a moment where I look up and it's me, Kane Brown playing against Jason Aldine and Post Malone and Beer Palm for like 10K or something. You know what I mean? Like, it's like a real game and the whole, the bar is full and everybody's there. I, full disclosure and I hadn't shared this yet. I had never played beer palm, right?

I mean, I didn't go to college or nothing. Did you play? Did you play 10K in a game you don't know how to play? Well, I knew something most people. I knew Post was really. good and I knew Cain was really good. And then I had to decipher as to which one was more competitive.

And in my heart, I knew it was Cain. Because POST is just a real love, not that Cain's not a loving guy, but Post is just like a real like, you know, he's a competitive guy when he plays, but he's fun. Cain is a fierce competitor. You know what I'm saying? He's like, I didn't come here to have fun. I came to fucking beat y'all.

You know what I'm saying? So I was like, I'm a Cain. You know what I'm saying? I'm in on this. And Cain was like, Post is good. I'm good. Al Dean's mid. your mid. And I was just like, all right, I'll take mid. And I'm thinking, I don't have never played, but I don't disclose this, right?

And I got the picture because Al Dean's photographer took a couple pictures, but it ended up being, I don't even know how I got Bunny Trail. Oh, Shibuzi, the time got here. So we're playing, we're having the best night of here, bog, and Shibuzi's just, he's like the life of the party. He's cutting in and throwing for posts. He's just fun. Everybody instantly loves him.

Like, he's got that natural walks in the room and you're like, I like, I like this guy. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Absolutely. Just naturally that thing. You know, like, he's a great guy, man. Did you end up winning the 10K?

Yeah, but Kane did. Fuck, I didn't do anything. Did you make any? I made three out of 13 or something. I did some. Kane carried me, though. But the next game, Kane stepped out and Shay Mooney stepped in, and I dropped like 11 cups.

Once I figured out what was going on, I was bald. No shit. Yes, I'm instantly good at it. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's just, you know. Maybe I was just high enough. It's just a lazy enough sport that works for me. You know what I'm saying?

It's just fucking... That is a while. I've never heard of beer pumping played for 10K. It's a real thing. It happened. And I know he posts had like a game show at one point, didn't he? He was like playing beer drinking games of people.

Him and Kane were... It was almost like watching a different language be spoken. Like the way they would talk about the symmetrics of the game. They'd be like, uh... He's like, you want to use one of them now. He's like, yeah, but I want to do a two-three-one two. And he would set the cups up. You know what I'm talking about?

Y'all are familiar with you. I know, I know, I'm really. sound stupid. Two rewax, it's a rebrag, fire, I'm learning this

all in real time. I haven't told it. They're going to learn this watching this. Let me get it. Let me get a zipper. Let me get a zipper with those stories. They're going to learn this watching this. I had no clue.

I just went along with it. Like, yeah, for sure. No, I got you. Never played in my whole life. There's these brothers on Instagram, the ones they do like that little side I think.

Yeah. They do a whole deal about beer pong and how all the, all the aggressive setups you can do about the three, two, one, two, two, give you that your mother's daughter. Yeah.

Hey, those cups touch those cups. We did a Mario flag. Yeah, there was a good one. A Mario flag was a fun one. What is that? I don't know. Two and three? I don't remember.

Dude, now, keep in mind, I'm learning this game. It's got to be like a three sideways. At 2.30 in the morning. After I just won a fucking award, I'm cranked.

Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I am fucking. The lights are all, but nobody was home. You know what I'm saying? Definitely one of those. What's a Mario, Jack?

Say that again? What's in the Mario? It's got to be the three with two extra. Like if there's five, you know what I mean? Two? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I'm going to take that, put my back pocket.

A little pointy flag. That's a nice little one. Yeah, no, I said, because Kane called for it. Kane said, give me the Mario flag and post looked disgusting. And I was like, this is deep. This is deep. Right then, I looked at Al Dean. I was like, I hope Al Dean knows as much as I know.

And I could tell he knew some shit. And I was like, I really don't know what's going on. Keep it close to your vest, though. Keep the cards close? All of us. You heard him. Give him the Mario flag. Beer competition.

Sounds like we should reach out to Kane and post Malone. Yeah. For beer games. For beer Olympics? Yeah. Beer games. Excuse me. Beer games.

Yeah. I keep calling it the B.O. Oh, we can't call it the B.O. no more? No, well, the real O is this year. Oh. So I feel like there's some copyright things. Yeah. They can really come after it since it's the year.

So official titers is beer games championship of the world. Yeah. How do y'all feel about it? I know y'all've had some drop, some come, some go. How's it balancing out? I think based on the last couple of years and how we're going to release it. How we're going to roll this one out. Yeah.

There's a lot more to want to it. It's going to be, it's going to be so much more than just drinking. Like the first night there's going to be the gambling, the Dana White, the tunnel of chaos type vibe. Wow. And then we have it themed out. Yeah. Like we're doing the whole high roller room. And we're like, it's all bustling with the boys, all, all that stuff.

So it'll be really cool. And then obviously your concert at the end. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. It's going to be. Big banger, dog. Yeah, the beer games will be out there by that pool. Everything, stuff, shrubs getting put in.

Oh, dope. So, y'all, the beer games will happen at the pool and then they'll clear it out and let patrons in. Got patrons in. Let them get after. Yeah, we just have one little section of the pool. The pool is still in Republic. But it'll be high enough so people can't see in.

Dope. It's going to be a nice little setup. So dope. I love Red Rocks anyways. Dude, they're the best. I've only been there once for y'all because I went to go meet you and then I meet you at the other spot, but I went in there and one immediately. Yeah.

Me and Cody exposed one. there and at one. Hey, that was a classic Jellewold. I was like, where you at? I'm like, oh, I'm at Red Rock. You're coming over? He's like, yeah, I'm coming.

Three hours go by. And then it hits me up and it was like, come to Cesar's. I was like, all right, I guess jelly's not coming. Literally get in the car. I'm halfway to Caesar. He's like, hey, where you at? I just got here.

I was like, oh, fuck, dude. This is where I'm at. Yeah. So, he came and met us up. Yeah, my. So we were joking about. I was on time today. Yeah, I was going to say we're joking about the times and stuff

in our group chat yesterday. You said like we go to 12 30 and expect one or 12 to expect 12. Yeah, we'll go at 12 and we'll fully expect to be there at 12. Yeah. These are early calls for me still. Early calls. How is your sleep? Is your sleep changed?

No. Just the routine when you wake up has changed. The routine is changed. And what I am now willing to do is I used to be totally anti this, but days like today I sacrifice a little sleep to make sure I got my morning in. Yeah. And I'm okay with that. I used to be like, sleep's more important than that.

I was like, you're going to die on your sleep. of obesity. You know what I'm saying? Hey, the sleep is so important. Yeah, yeah. It's like,

nah, I'm fucking losing a weight's more important. Yeah. So if me fucking quit making that and I'm eating a cookie like, oh, oh, I got to sleep,

you know, fuck off. Sleep's important. You know what I'm saying? Brother, you have slept enough. Yeah. I've had it so backwards.

It's legit like a religious thing for you. You got to do it every single day. Yeah. I love that, dude. That's fucking awesome. I'll take like one day off a week

or even then I'll still do one of it. I'll probably. I'd do something. You know what I mean? Or I'll take one or two days off. I'll take two to three days off the walking portion. Yeah. Just because I'm still so big that if I try to walk six days a week and would just beat me

the breaks off. So many pairs of socks? Yeah. Those are two a day. Those are stinky tics. Yeah. The worst part is my wife put me on blast. She immediately commented under it when it was going viral.

She was like, he also does this with shirts. You got to love that. She was like shirts and boxers. That's all true. You love how Bonnie just doesn't give a fuck about the. noise. Bunny doesn't care about that bitch. She's maybe the number one savage in the world. Yes. Dude, she's the greatest woman ever and she doesn't care about it. She will, first of all, she will clap back. Be careful coming for Bunny, she will fire. You know what I'm saying?

Bill Maher said something about me. I thought it was the coolest thing ever when he said. Bill Maher. Did you not read this? No. You'll pull up the New York post what Bill Maher said about Jelly Roll, please. I'm sorry not to tell you what to do, Jack. This is fucking really cool. And just knowing and going off about how badass your wife is, like you, I have such a that vibe about her. to where I'm not even nervous when I text. Like, hey, we're trying to hit up jelly roll. This is what we're trying to get done. What do you know?

What can you tell me? She's like responding. Yeah, I'm about to go on a podcast. I'll hit you after. It hits me after. She just handles her business, bro. No, she's all business, man. So he did a New York Post article.

And one of the headlines of it was, no, that's not the one. It'll be Bill Maher, New York Post. But there's a quote in there where he says, we're all jelly roll now we're all sloppy complicated and contradictory

and I thought that was awesome because he referenced it to like 80% 50% of Democrats 60% of Democrats own a gun or live with a gun owner and two thirds of Republicans agree for legalization of marijuana he's like at least jelly roll's honest about his contradictions

yeah he's like so the world's kind of I wish the world would be more like jelly you know what I'm saying? It was kind of saying it, but like, but it was a real backhanded fucking compliment, right? He said it in a mean way,

but if you pick it a part of a little bit. He's also a comedian, though. It's like, Mia Soltz laughed about it because Sultz was like, he said you were like every man. I was like, exactly. I thought it was the coolest thing ever.

You're the relatable guy in the middle. My wife immediately shot at him. She went straight online and lit Bill Maher up. Damn. And I was, I was like, you know what? I'm going to let you do you,

but I think he was right. You know what I'm saying? I'm not going to get in your way. But to be honest with you. I think it's all good. Dude, he's got a show too. He did one with Bill Burr. And Bill Burr.

It's the next one down. It's the next one down. You'll see it. Or did you say my name in that one? Yeah, yeah. It's right. It says, we're all in jelly roll starting here. We're all jelly roll now.

We're sloppy, complicated, and contradictory. Two-thirds of Republican voters support weed legalization of 41% of Democrats own or live with someone who owns a gun. Miss Marvel is Pakistan. The winner of the last two NBA dunk contest is white. The new Captain America is black and Spider-Man is black in Puerto Rican. So anyways, he said, White guys have won the dunk contest?

Yeah, we gotta put that up. We gotta take that. Anyways, dude. I'll even keep up with that dunk, the dunk contest has gotten, so, yeah, that is sick. That is awesome. We'll just saw two white guys win a dunk contest. His brain went towards that. Cooper DeGine?

Yeah, I got to go this year. White guys are making a comeback in sports. Yeah. And that's not any type of way other than, hell yeah. Making a comeback in sports. He said, that's not in any other kind of way. I'm not trying to be that guy, but that's kind of dope. Sitting here as a white guy, I'm like, all right, cool.

We are athletic. I like that. We're not dying. I know. We had a corner to get drafted in the first round of the draft. You see that? No second. Oh, you're right, because I forgot.

We got duped. Yeah, we got duped. We got dup bad. Yeah, I thought he was drafted. So close shit. So good. Gene, man, Iowa. I mean, that is crazy.

That a corner is a white corner in the NFL right now. That's the craziest shit ever. I hope it kills. I knew the new world you're living in. We can't talk about it. I get it out of here. I'm going to put this thing in reverse. We're going to get the fuck out of this subject right now.

I would appreciate it if we got away from this one. Shout out Max. Shout out Max. That's what I know for you. That's what I got for this segment. Shout out to my homie Max. You know what I'm saying? No doubt.

No doubt. So Pittsburgh's good, Cleveland's good, you hate Detroit. Let's get into that. He defended more than Wallen? What else can I say on here? My public says told me not to say. You guys can't say words now? Kelly Raw.

I hate John. I've done stuff off on the roof before you, classic cubs. I don't know if Will and Taylor saw this, but I guess Bunny caught Bailey sneaking out on y'all's cameras and they're just like crawling through the grass. It's got like 8 million views. yeah she

she did a barrel roll like snowship in the army yeah yeah this this my house is funny man

watch this they just who poof little crouch tiger oh they think they're getting out of there now watch the disappointment damn oh

security sending them right back home that is awesome we got security outside I don't know what she was thinking. So she gets down the driveway and he's like, yo, the fuck are y'all going? You know what I'm saying? I've seen you on every camera.

And he's so gangster. He goes, I won't tell him till tomorrow. Get your ass back up that. Oh, shit. That is hilarious. Yeah, man. Dude, this formula.

It's a 16-year-old. The farm. You know what you got cooking here? 500 acres. Me and Bunny just went to look at it. I actually was, I just, the call I was having while I was,

10 minutes later. I was here on time, but I was talking about this farm. 500 acres? We're going to snipe it up? It's pretty much done. What are we going to do with it? I'm torn, man. We're going to put the bus. Yeah, wherever y'all won't.

The way it's divided is there's three ridges divided by two creeks like this, an upper and a lower. And there's three entrances to the property. I think the side with two entrances, I'm going to build a family compound. and on the other 100 acres I'm going to subdivide and make a, you know, make a plate. No shit. You better go off on that property, huh? I think so. Hey, that is nice.

I think so. Got some hunting? Look out it's beautiful, man. Some hunting land up there? Man, 500 acres, cop, dude, I cried. It's unreal. I mean, that is. It's the dream.

That is unreal, man. That is awesome. I have a rich uncle. His name's Uncle Buford, man. He's been really good to me in my whole life. He just made really good decisions. Owned a dry cleaning company. and he saved his money, right?

He bought like four or five hundred acres in Williamson County 30 years ago. So you know what that's worth now. Crazy. And when I was a kid, the first time I ever shot a gun, I went and shot it there. And I remember leaving. And I asked my father, I go, man, how come we don't have one of those?

He was like, well, just wasn't in our cars. But if you ever want one, you just got to plan for it and make the right financial decision to get it. Ever since then I wanted one, I was like, I want a farm. I killed my first quail out there. learn how to route a four-wheel or out of that farm. You know, my dad, me and my dad go out there all the time.

And Buford didn't even live out there back then. It was something else he believed in. It was like he bought the farmers the dream. He just let it, you know, had like a little farmhouse on. He was just like one day. Yeah. You know, and now him and his wife live out there.

And that's where, you know, the end of their life. They're in their late 70s. But it's really cool. So, yeah, just getting to do it was like, yeah, this is it. But if I keep being successful, I'm going to build three or four houses

and a studio and move my whole family and have a little jelly roll neighborhood. and then I'm a sub-de-line the other side and make a little play. That's awesome, man. I love that. It's cool, man. It's cool to see Bunny get excited because when we pulled in, she was like, kind of lackless. She's also from the desert.

Yeah. Like, you got to remember that you're from Texas but went to school in Michigan. Arizona, but went to school in Michigan. Yeah, Arizona went to school in Michigan. You know a little bit about the desert. So you get this too, like, but you got to see more of the green side of America. Yeah. She grew up in a desert.

You know what I mean? So, like, her still, the first time we did a show and, Indiana. I remember her filming the trees because he was like yo. Somebody's first time. You all got to come see this. He was first time seeing snow and just having all those bullshit pictures in your phone. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Her palm with like a little bit of snow in it. Yeah. That's funny. So she kind of getting it. But when we got up on that first ridge and it just opened up. It was like the light of God. Oh. And she, I just watched her. She said, oh, we got to do this. And I was like, I told you, man. We turned the

the gator off. No noise. pollution. Couldn't hear a highway. You know, you don't hear nothing, but just nature, genuine nature. I was like, this is what we need. Hell yes. That's awesome, man. It's the dream, baby. Before we get off here, anything for us

to look forward to at CMA Fest? You're going to make another speech? Well, I can tell you this at CMA Fest. I'm going to bring out a guest. I'm going to have a real special set. It's going to be my first time playing the big stage at the stadium.

She's fun, too. I don't know if y'all ever met Ashty McBride, but she's a real badass. I don't think so. I've not met her. Unless that may be, she's been one of the softball games. Because we'll be doing that.

Actually, by the time this comes out the day, after. Oh, dope. So we had a great time to softball game. Yeah, we had a great time

guest you won't see that are all throughout there man what's out of Tennessee uh I don't know if any of them are from Tennessee I think these are all some Georgia dude trying to figure out trying to figure out who could be that lineup yeah yeah but this ain't even me this is like my guest is different I got a different thing going all but what the the festival itself does guess like there's people that are going to come out that you're going to be like no way I thought this dude was going to be here no shit yeah man they do it right dude when I've been going to this since I was a kid by the way.

They used to call it fanfare and did it at the fairgrounds. You just stood in line and waited for autographs. You know what I'm saying? No pictures or nothing. You didn't have a camera. You just went up, the dude looked at you, signed his name,

and handed it to you. And now you're doing the best night in the stadium. That's all time. That is so cool, man. Talk to me about Ernest, dude. We know Ernest has the most talent in the world. Yeah.

When is my man going to get his shot and be like triple platinum, no number one song? When's that coming for him? It's on the way. I love it. so close. Ernest is so close to it as an artist. The thing about Ernest

is he serves two masters. Ernest is still writing the biggest hits we're hearing. You know what I mean? Yeah. But the thing about Ernest is he's still servicing hits to everybody else. You know what I mean? So he's serving two masters. He's still the go-to guy in town to bring

into a room if you need to get one across the line. You know what I mean? And that's paying a lot of the bills too. So he's kind of struggling. I tell you what I am trying to do and you should harass him about this. We should corner I'm trying to bring them on fuck it, I'll say it here we are adding 15

17 shows to my tour My first arena tour was scheduled to be 42 cities And they're already almost Completely sold out so we're adding like another 15 but this won't come out for another few weeks Which now y'all know though it's coming But for those 15 dates I couldn't keep

Warren and Alexander because they had already had previous commitments For the extra 17 It might be 20 dates between us No shit. Yeah. And so I'm calling Ernest, like, come. He's like, I don't, I can't tour the way you tour. He really anchors himself down into a normal life Monday through Wednesday.

Like he'll go write songs, but he's there with Delaney, they're gardening. He's with rhyming. He's like super dad, super husband. He lives like, he's like fucking, you know, Batman, right? You know what I'm saying? It's like, and then he puts on the Batman outfit on Thursdays and goes and he's Ernest, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. When Jellyroll leaves for a tour, kiss Delaney and Ryman or put him. on the bus, but you're not coming home for 45 days.

You know what I'm saying? It's like, I just do it different. You know what I'm saying? Ernest is like, I can't do that. I was like, quit being a pus. I'll have a nurse. We'll get IVs. You know what I'm saying?

We'll be okay, dude. If I can do it, you can do it. So we need to corner him and get him on this. Get him on board. It'd be huge, dude. And I'm like, do it with your friend, man. Why not? You do, the reason he tours with Morgan.

It's the reason I'm going out and doing five shows with Morgan this summer. Tour with your friends, man. It's the reason I open up for Eric Church all the time. It don't matter how big I am, I want to go be with my friends. Yeah. You know what I mean? Why in the, from a game standpoint of music, why wouldn't Ernest start keeping those hits for himself? Um, I think he's just got such a good flow over there.

And I think Ernest ain't in a rush to be a celebrity. To be honest. I think Ernest is just like, man, I'm just, he's going to do it his way. Yeah. He's not going to do any of the, another part of it, too, if we're going to be frank with each other is the traveling. You know what I mean? Like, he's really, he really is honest with me. when he's like, yo man, like, I like being just a normal dude three days a week.

I go right from nine in the morning to three in the afternoon. I stop by losers and have lunch, drink a couple beers, go home to my wife. He's like, I got a really cool thing. Then I can go be a rock star of my best friends on the weekends. You know what I mean? Where it's like, I'm like, oh, we're doing busting with the boys this day. Cool. Well, let's squeeze in Kimmel while we're on that side of the coast.

And let's do this while we're out there. You know what I mean? Like, I'm just in constant, like, you know, I'm more like Bert Kreischer. You know what I'm saying? I'm just in constant go mode. Yeah. So I think Ernest is really cool just writing songs. And he, I love that Ernest is willing to die on the hill of his own artistic sound.

He doesn't want to make commercial records. He loves making old country Roberts Western World kind of records. Yeah. He's not looking for something to get played at Dirk's Bentley's. He's looking for something to get played at Roberts. You know what I mean? He just got to, he just loves the old feeling of this old sad. I was listening to it last night.

That record with him and Laney is just so old school country. I could if I would, but I can't, so I won't, but I won't to. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like, just fucking, what a fucking genius, you know? He really is so, he's so talented. And that's real, Taylor. They don't joke when Garth Brooks said he started that radio station

so people could hear country the way it's intended to hear. I'm dealing with this now that I've become an international artist. You get outside of America, they immediately won't play anything on any radio station or playlisting in other countries that has a pedal steel on it. was that you got a fiddle or a steel guitar it's just two country really yeah that's a true story and earnest his whole album has fiddles and steel guitars you know what I mean for me it was like I took the fiddle off of need of favor and just sent it I was like okay cool we'll just send it the da na na na na na da da da da no da no which is actually a fiddle with voices over it but there was a

fiddle behind it doing it room room room we from need of favor so we had to take it all or international radio was like we won't play it Yeah. That is wild. All the, all the nuances of music and the business side. Yeah. No doubt. Mitch, you got a twisted question? God damn it. Jack, you got a tear talk? Yeah, the tier talk, there's a couple options.

One was thrown around, which I feel like is just kind of a low-hanging for like top three artists. I think we're better than that. Another one that we would have to take some time and think about, but you could create three fictional band names and then you give an idea of what the band is and then you rank them hypothetically like your like your favorite

our own made up band yeah that's interesting that would be a hard tier talk that'd be a hard tier talk I know that's something I feel like we need we might need a little more preparation for or you go best condiments

I'm believe it or not any one of those three can work for me let's do condiments my simple brain And I've got three fucking, I got three artists ball time. Here's a question while. James Jim and Bob, baby. James Jim and Bob.

If you can write a song with anybody dead or alive, hit record, number one, who are you taking? That's our twisted question. That's our twisted question. If I could write a hit song with anybody. Dead or alive. Dead or alive. He's still living. I would love to sit down and watch the way James takes.

write songs. Why is that? It's just different, man. You know, he taught himself the guitar, so he plays, like, weird shapes, like different shapes than most people play. And his songwriting, his style has always been so abstract.

He's just, he's my favorite songwriter. Him, Jim Crocey, Bob Dylan, those are my favorite songwriters of all time. So I'd love to sit down and, and I think he would give me more. I'd love to see how Bob writes a song, but I could imagine Bob kind of being tough, you know, just kind of,

he's so elusive and doesn't talk I couldn't see him being real engaging where I could imagine Jim looking at me like what do you think if we turn it around like this and we went to you know I'd love to hear how he structures out of songs that'd be really crazy thank you twisted tea for my twisted question

fire good friend Anna great friend that was good move we've not done you do any favors you just there's one right there you want of your condiments will you ready we can do condiments I don't know if I'm ready

yet, but I can be ready. Do you have yours? Do you know yours? I can probably be my condiments. Conuments is like mustard mayo. Yeah, we're not doing like chick-fil-a sauce or like any like commercial kind of sauce. It's your strict condiments you find in the side of your fridge. Where do we stand on dressing? Is that a condiment? I would say that if you're trying to put ranch in there, I would, I'd let that. All right. I'm ready. You just needed the ranch? That's all I need to hear. Yes, absolutely. I'll go first since we're still working on it. My tier. Are you Googling condiments right now, Will?

Please don't, please don't interrupt my process. But yes. Sometimes you have to shoot from the hip. Okay. My tier three is going to go to the honey mustard. I think a lot of times it's a great dipping sauce. You can put it on a sandwich. It's got a lot of different lanes you can live in.

Honey mustard to me is fantastic. My tier two is going to go to barbecue sauce. Mm. Just. as long as we've all been alive, you get a chicken sandwich and you throw a little bit of barbecue sauce on it, you're just not,

there's no way to get it better, you know? It's just a nice barbecue chicken sandwich, boom. Yeah. In and out, Southwest chicken sandwich, there's going to be a spicy barbecue on there. So many different varieties and taste and ingredients, whether it's vinegar or mustard or tomato. You have your bases, but barbecue sauce goes hard.

So much so that there's Colts, like there's Kansas City barbecue, there's Texas barbecue, there's Memphis barbecue, North Carolina barbecue. Where everybody stands. What's up? Nashville.

Nashville barbecue. Everyone plants their flag on the ground. They say ours is the best. What's your favorite barbecue? I was hoping you wouldn't ask me that. My favorite barbecue is going to be a honey barbecue. I just lean towards a sweet more than anything else. I also am a big fan of the Alabama White.

Alabama White for me is. Alabama White is the slab. I think it keeps Jim and Nixon business alone. That little muffins day. Yeah. And my tier one is going to go to my God tier, which is ranch. I think there's two kinds of people. There's people that enjoy ranch and there's people that are dead to me that enjoy blue sheets. And those people can go fuck themselves. No disrespect, but disrespect, ranch is to me the best condiment you can have dipping. I love that list.

Thank you. Love that list. Oh yeah. You got to write my list. You're right. You're right. You're right. With a word. electric I got to say incredible it's a good list that's a strong list it made me rethink my list

I'm glad you went first yeah yeah I'm saying that was my heart that was purely me yeah because I was gonna go ketchup mustard manned eyes yeah you know what I mean

we would have said 12 yeah yeah I will say that oh yeah sorry got yeah one word opinion in the back hyphenated mouth water Oh, solid.

God. Okay. Okay, Mitch. Bring it back solid, huh? Mine, dude, this is so hard. But you kind of sold me on barbecue sauce. Barbecue sauce was in my list, but I moved up one because of the range and variety that you have in barbecue sauce.

You can do so many different things with it. So my tier three is now going to be, I'm. Honorable mention ranch. Ranch didn't make it. Ranch didn't make it. Honorable mention range. And blue cheese is on his tier talk. That's the end of bus.

Blue cheese. No, blue cheese. Hey, listen, listen, I fit with your mold. Blue cheese is dead to me. I hate blue cheese. But I do, everybody talks about you get a mature taste. Like, as you get older, you'll start enjoying it more. So we'll cook yourself.

Yeah, we'll see. Yeah, that's the most disrespectful thing you can say. But my tier three, based on how often I use it is hot sauce. My tier three is hot sauce. I feel like there are, there's a variety of hot sauce. It's just like there is barbecue. But the fact of like, you know, using barbecue sauce with marinade and just slathering ribs on it, and all the different styles where you hit the different parts of the country, that is what put barbecue sauce now at two instead of hot sauce.

Because hot sauce, I like to put it on stuff, but barbecue sauce, you can kind of overdo it. So tier three, hot sauce, tier two, barbecue sauce, my tier one condiment, my mouse watering, just thinking about it. Mayonnaise. I love mayonnaise, bro. I love it. Damn near on everything. And I feel like it's a good foundational condiment that you can even create with other condiments. Like if you want an aoli, you're using mayo to mix it in there with saracha, hot sauce.

You can mix it with ketchup. Love mixing mayonnaise with ketchup. But my number one condiment is mayonnaise. Mayonnaise, barbecue sauce, hot sauce. Shout out to ranch. Hyphenated plot twist. Mitch, Jack Almost

Gritty Jell you got a word to rate my list I'm having to look up condiments now I see why you did it It's actually plot twistings here Yeah kind of jogs your memory a little bit Because there's stuff you're like I didn't think of that as a condomit

That's actually really fire That's what happened to me with the hot sauce Because that would probably be my tier one Because you're a hot sauce lover I know And it's got the same argument of Read your three to me again for I give you a one worder.

My honorable mentor is ranch. My tier three is hot sauce. Tier two is barbecue sauce. My tier one is mayonnaise. Okay. I'm going to ride solid. I'm going to ride solid. Okay.

Rad solid with the homie. That's a solid list. Pressure is on. Before I start this. Jelly Roll's favorite condiments. I've got to ask this question first. Because I just read a couple of articles, and this is a big point of contingency that could change everything.

Okay, go ahead. There are people that qualify peanut butter as a condiment. that I almost can't allow that because that would be in my list. Will, I will lean on Will because he is a peanut butter dot. Okay. That's his shit. Peanut butter.

Okay. Have you ever done a peanut butter sandwich with chili? Dipped in chili? Peanut butter is considered a condiment. Oh, the internet will. With that being said, I got to stand by my list.

Start it through. With that being said, boys, with that being said, boys, I'm going to go in with ranch number three. Because I think we can all agree ranch is ranch. I'm going to pick hot sauce over barbecue today, just because I love a good hot sauce. But if peanut butter is for sure a condoment,

it's by number one by country mouth, the greatest condiment that's ever invented ever. And this is a little deeper because if that's considered a connoissement because it's spreadable, that also means Nutella and everything in that family, all kind of nut butters. You know what I'm saying? You're trying to claim all the nut butters right now.

All I'm saying, listen, if we could claim the 30 different kind of barbecue sauce. No question. No question. You know what I'm saying? My head went to. Yeah, it's like there is, you know, there's maple syrup, almond butter, there's cinnamon almond butter.

It's like, you know what I mean? Oh, baby, brink. God, damn. If you ever had a peanut butter sandwich dipped in chair? Now, honorable mention, here's a hot one too. You ready for this? Salsa. I want that question out there so bad.

Soasa's considered an economy. Salsa was on a couple of lists and I was thinking about, even guacamole, but I thought guacamole is a little bit of a stretch. Yeah, that's like a side. Yeah. Have you ever? had a peanut butter sandwich dipped in chili no are they fire insane bro you love peanut butter like i think you do oh you're going to love this combination you see you what he's talking oh you're gonna love

that combination godly the greatest sandwich ever dude i would rate that in two words almost perfect you didn't have mayo so that's why i had to kind of yes but that peanut butter at the top great pool thank you i'm sick about mine but i was proud of myself i'm gonna take yours right there that bread looks I love that this was a post of yours. It's old big days. It looks like it's missing a little peanut butter, though. Peanut butter's in the sandwich. Ish?

I put it on both sides. I put it on both sides. It's a little light in the ass in the middle, isn't it? I'm just saying, man. I will say I had a meal an hour before that, so a part of me was a little already full. But you probably just ate that. You probably just ate that for the pitcher then.

I couldn't wait through some chili cooking when I got home yesterday. It wasn't ready for two more hours. Oh, this was yesterday? Yeah. Oh, that was that? You said that photo yesterday? Yeah, that was yesterday, bro. That's funny, man.

I love it, man. One year I had Charles, she was like, she wanted to cook for me, and she's like, what, I want to make you whatever you want to have for your meal on your birthday. And I said chili and peanut butter sandwiches. Simple man, baby. Is that Charles Chili? That one? Yeah.

That one is Audrey's. It looks gas. Dude, it is. She dumped some cream cheese in it. God. I was going to say it's got that color to it. By the way. Cream cheese, sour cream.

Yeah. Could it? could have easily been honorable mentions. I'll take yours incredible. Wow. Cream cheese. Cream cheese, bro. Yeah, when you bring spreadables into the mix, whoa, that changes all the condiments.

This is a, this is a very, hit that fucking pipe again. Right. To town on something crazy. I got some out there fired in. We'll hit one more before you go. Yeah, I catch you, of always. Because that was, that first 30 minutes this podcast, I was on the moon for a little bit.

I kind of came to you at my piss. I was like, where have I been for the last hour? I literally said like, what have you done this past year? Yeah. For what it's worth. When we started it, I was thinking, this might be the shortest podcast ever. We might just chill. You were like, so what do you want to talk about?

And I still. So you know you're like, you know how you have boys. You're like, so what have you even fucking done recently? I've seen you everywhere. I'm sure you want to promote something. Yeah. I do love y'all, man. And I love when I get to come on here and hang out with y'all.

hugs down to kisses. All right. Do you want to talk context first? Because we just jump back on the bus. Yeah. So, Bunny, we'll just, you can put this,

y'all know how you, but I don't want to tell this story because you asked by my daughter's Sweet 16. Mm-hmm. It's how to start. Taylor, when I was a kid, nobody came to anything I did.

I was not a popular kid. I'll never forget. I mean, I passed out the RSVPs with the free candy in it to come to my birthday party. My mother would make a table for 30 kids.

Not a kid would show up. Damn. I've carried that trauma with me my whole life. Right? So like when I announce a tour, I'm nervous. Like, is this going to be the tour

people quit buying tickets to give a fuck that I'm doing this? Like, it really bums me out. Bailey comes to me and goes, I want to do a sweet 16 party. Comes to Bunny. And I'm like, no. Absolutely not.

Because Bailey's had a couple of parties that went similar to mine when I was young. And I was like, I'm telling you, man, we're sitting this kid up with him. Like, we're going to put all this money. You're going to have this big party. And I was the negative voice tale. And I'm, I want to show.

shared his story on his pot and with y'all because y'all are fathers. I hope you learned from you. I was so against him. And kicking and screaming, it was so hard to get put together. She put it together. And then I was like, well, the good news is we have a big family. You know, but what I've learned is, and this is the hardest part of life, you can pay for the best party ever.

You can plan the best party ever, and you can have 45 family members show up. But you can't plan on 15 or 16 year old showing up. You just never know what I mean? It's like, so I was just so nervous for Bailey. And to the point I, I mean, I hadn't been that nervous for something in a while, like stomach hurting the day of. Dude, it was a blast. I was so wrong.

I carried that fear for four weeks, that anxiety for four weeks about this party. I was so stressed. I cried about it a couple times. I mean, I was upset. I was worried for. She wasn't getting no RSVPs at first. I was like, this is just not going to go. And even then, it was like a typical high school party.

We walked in with like 20 RSVPs. So I was like, you know what? That's good. You know what I mean? But I was like, we need to make sure we get the family here to fill the room up. Yeah. Dude, about 9 o'clock at night, you could tell the pin location was getting dropped. All you seen was car after car.

It ended up with like hundreds. Kids from other schools. It turned to one of those parties. No shit. Yeah, it turned into like one of them. Listen, I left. Yeah. How about that?

I mean, I looked at my wife. My wife looked at me and I looked at her and she was like, I don't think we got no business here. I was like, me neither. We had security there. I was like, we know they're not going to get too crazy. You know what I mean? I was like, let that run its course, dude.

And it was the, thank you for even asking. I'm glad we got to bring it back on here. It was the coolest thing to see an experience. And what I realized early in the night was, the real lesson for me was before one teenager showed up. The whole family was there. And I was like, if not a kid shows up, it's going to be a great night.

You know what I mean? like it was just such a cool party man and it taught me a lot about not projecting, we accidentally project our shit on our children. Right. You know what I mean? And I never really wrapped that. Roos still really young. You know what I mean? But think about this in the years to come

because at a place that I had fell short, I had projected that on my own daughter. You know what I mean? And it was just really cool to see that turn around and actually be such a heartfelt moment. And as a shameless plug, you can see the whole party on Bunny's Patreon. You know what I mean?

That's awesome. That is an awesome story. All right, Big Alex Tending. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick.
