This is an IHeart podcast. Guaranteed human. When a group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist, they take matters into their own hands. I vowed I will be his last target. He is not going to get away with this. He's going to get what he deserves. We always say that trust your girlfriends.

Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe. On the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you. you get your podcast. What's up, everyone? I'm Ago Vodam. My next guest, it's Will Ferrell. Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo.

My dad gave me the best advice ever. He goes, just give it a shot. But if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. It would not be.

Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck. Listen to thanks, Dad, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me. Clifford Taylor the 4th.

You might have seen the skits, my basketball and college football journey, or my career in sports media. Well, now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, the Clifford Show. This is a place for raw, unfiltered conversations with athletes, creators and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated. So let's get to it. Listen to the Clifford show on the IHeard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And for more behind the scenes, follow at Clifford and at TikTok podcast network on TikTok. It is time for another Sunday sampler and nobody's putting new stuff up on this day,

so we want you to hear this stuff in case you missed it. So let's get it. It's basically a lot of our shows that we're proud of, but also clips of our shows. Cody Jinks was on the Bobbycast. I've been a fan of Cody for a long time, but not as long as some of my friends who have been like, I was with Cody jinx from the very beginning. I don't know if they're telling the truth or not, because like he said, he's been doing it for 20 years. But I've always been a fan of how he conducts his business.

He just puts his head down. He just grinds. And then he's had massive success without ever having to purposefully aim mainstream. So it's me and Cody. And if you want to hear the whole interview, go over and check out the Bobbycast. But this is Cody talking about finding success without having a record deal. how his two-year-old son is a writer on one of his songs and which artists he thinks are the most real with their music right now.

So on the way, though, Caroline Hobby, also Amy, also idiots, also everybody that does a podcast here. All right, you guys, thank you for hanging out. Here we go to start things off. Here's a clip from this week's Bobbycast with Cody Jinx. So loud and heavy. So the song was written with your infant son. Can you tell me that story?

Yeah, we were driving down the road. his second birthday and I was off the road at the time and all he wanted to do was go see tractors so I drove him down to the nearest tractor store tractor supplier and he was like two you know and he wanted to just sit on it and go ruin and it started raining really really heavy and just said he was sitting back there in his car seat and he said loud thunder heavy rain loud thunder heavy rain. I grabbed my phone and I just hit the voice memo and I just did the I mean just exactly like it's on the record to the loud under heavy rain and just hit stop went to the tractor store rain light up a little bit he played for a second and I was like hi buddy ready to go he's like I got to

write the song went home wrote the song I'm sorry I forgot I had on mic went home uh wrote the song in about 45 minutes and um you know it was it was you know it was you know it was a kind of a fun saying this business a word gets a third you know but uh there was only you know two of us there so i actually gave him half of the writing on it so um he's 11 now but he doesn't he doesn't realize how much money that song's made he he won't because uh yeah he's gonna have to uh we told both of our kids because my daughter's got a couple of writing credits too as does my wife and we told our kids It's like, no, no, you don't get that. You go to school or you get a job.

You get that with your older. Like 1821? Maybe older than that. We don't want to have little turds, little trust fund turds. My wife and I grew up without much. So we're trying to teach him, hey, man, this is more about hard work than it is about anything else. The new songs, Outlaws and Mustangs. Yeah.

So why did that as the new single? I really had to fight for that song. I released my last record two years ago. It was called Mercy, and we had tried to record outlaws and Mustangs on the Mercy record. It just wasn't jiving. What do you mean it wasn't jiving?

We had a lead hook for it that just sounded really corny to me, and it was towards the end of the session, so we were all pretty burned out and brain dead. And so we weren't giving it the full attention we needed. And so we ended up scrapping it. and it took me, you know, until we go back in for this recording cycle to get atonement for that song, we were able to go in and I said, guys, I said, throw out everything that you played before.

I said, we're starting this song over. And we, like sonically or lyrically? No, not lyrically. Lyrically, we were there. So you kept all the same lyrics, got it. All the same lyrics. The lyrics were there. I did sing it a little bit differently.

And I think that that kind of spurred the band to play. a little bit differently as well and it just kind of fit so I felt really really good about that felt like like I said like I had a tonement for that when I was two years waiting to make that song right and we were starting to talk singles for this new record and it was like are we really going to take the song that we could not get right on the last record like it just now it shines you know so it's like yeah let's let's do it man like so that was the first one we we put out I wrote that with my friend Tennessee Jet. That's his name, Tennessee Jet.

Yeah, T.J. McFarland. He's one of the best riders I know. He's an Oklahoma boy. And his name's Tennessee Jet. Now, we've got to pause. Why is his name Tennessee Jet? He's from Oklahoma. TJ, if you're listening, buddy.

We got questions, bro. I've been friends with him for years. I've never thought of that. Not one time if I thought that. So we don't know the answer to that? I have no idea. Okay, we'll put a pen in that one. Go ahead.

Yeah, no. No, he's one of my favorite. I saw him play for the first time years and years ago. And just like, man, we've been writing songs ever since. And I told him about a movie that I'd seen with Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson called The Highwaymen, where they were playing the police officers that tracked down Bonnie and Clyde. And there was a line in the movie, Kevin Costner said, Outlaws and Mustangs always come home.

They were trying to track and kind of figure out where Bonnie and Clyde were going to go. figuring out their pattern. And so I called DJ and I said, hey man, you need to watch this movie and listen for this line and then let's write a song called Outlaws and Mustang. And he's like, cool, I'll watch it. He watched it that night or the next night and said skip a day. So I called him one evening, skip that next day. And then he calls me next day. He said, hey, man, I think I got something.

And he said, I'm going to send it over to you. He sent me the whole song. And I said, Basically, I just wrote the title, TJ. He said, yeah, but is there anything you want to change in the song? And I was like, no, it's fantastic. I'm not changing anything. I could go screw it up.

I could try to change it and be like, well, I had to get, no, it was perfect, you know. So that was a happy accident. And thank you again to TJ for his friendship. But also, man, I get stuck. And he's one of my first calls on a song for sure. How often is it that you write a song and then you feel like, well, it's not done? And then you go back and you fix it. and then it's actually fixed.

Because I think all those are different things. Because sometimes, maybe like we don't want to go back to the song, or sometimes you just don't ever fix it. How often does all that happen where you do go back and it is a success? You know, I don't know the answer to that. Maybe for anybody else, for us, we normally grind on a song until we get it. If we know the song's there, we'll work on one song for 12 hours.

You know, we don't do things like, You know, a lot of people use session musicians and, you know, go in and they'll lay a whole record down in the day. You know, it took us five months to make this record. We go in, I mean, we're a regular band. So we'll spend all day on a damn song if we need to. Do you ever write while you're recording? Absolutely. Do you have your own studio?

I don't. It doesn't make sense where I live. It feels expensive to write while I'm recording because I got to run out the freaking studio. I normally write while we're recording while the band is laying stuff down, I don't need to be there for. So what I'll do is I'll know that, let's say, you know, Josh, our bass player, he produces our stuff as well. He'll tell me, hey, Cody, we're going to be laying down, you know, whatever, whatever on Tuesday from, like, basically you have noon to, you have noon to 6 o'clock off Tuesday. I'll call some writers and I'll be like, hey man, can you come over to the studio between, you know, whatever time on, get it. This new record about to drop has three songs on it that were written in the studio.

And that record comes out early next year? It does, early next year. Cast up roll things, little fool for your soul, man. Life ain't always pretty, but hey, it's pretty beautiful, fans. Laugh a little more things. Tighten up your course, man. Said E.K. You're kicking it with four things.

With Amy Brown. Hey, it's Amy Brown from Four Things with Amy Brown. And here's what we talked about this week on my podcast. Habits of humble people. I can just run through them real quick. Yeah, hit us with those. We all want to show up that way. This is not a self-help episode, by the way.

Okay, humble people are situationally aware. They retain relationships. They make difficult decisions with ease. Mm-hmm. They put others first. Yeah. They listen. Yeah.

That's a lot of what you're saying. And all of that, right? All of that isn't some like they're putting deposits out there. Like, I've done all this for you. Now you owe me. Oh, yeah. No, the minute someone says that back to you, which I've had that said back to me, and I'm like, oh, well, then everything you did for me.

It was for them. Literally was for you and doesn't matter. And now I know that. Yeah. So thank you. That's right. That's not humility. That's not so.

forgiveness. That's again. And that's another thing too just as a mom that you have to keep in mind because I feel like a lot of times as parents with our kids, you can just get frustrated and think like, oh, everything that I do for you. And, you know, this is how you're going to talk to me or treat me or whatever. But the minute you say that, it's like, oh, wait, am I doing this for them or are I doing it for myself? Right, right. And so. Yeah, my uncle, he was a counselor. He's done a lot of that. And he had the how he talked about how we don't need the game but i dated a girl i chased a girl we didn't really date that i should not have been chasing and one of the conversations he kept having to have with me was jeremiah pay attention pay attention look she's showing you exactly who she is you think

that that one time where it was such a great day and then she she turned a corner and she chose you and she made a meal for you that day it wasn't for you but he's like that meal was for her She did it because it made her feel good in the moment. Look at all the other choices she's making. Weren't about you, were they? She actually threw you under the bus and all these other situations and you're jumping on to this. No, she really does care about me.

She made me this meal. He's like, again, you're looking and only remembering the good things. But that meal was not about you. She didn't care to give it to you. She cared to give it from herself, for herself. Yeah. Yeah. Continuing on with the list of humble qualities.

Humble people are curious. I love that one. They speak their minds. Yeah, they're not afraid. I like that one. They take time to say thank you. Yes. They have an abundance mentality.

Tell that one story. Oh, yeah. All right. So, well, I was in a very nice part of the world, and I won't give too much away here. I was in a very nice part of the world, at a very nice place to eat. That was a membership place, actually. and when I had finished the meal and it was an unbelievable meal with a very close friend of mine, we might have had one other friend there, but at the end of the meal, and I've had many meals with

these people, at the end of the meal, it was the best meal I'd ever had. And we left so much food there. We couldn't finish it. It was just eating so much. And I asked for a go box. And you have at this nice place, we had three or four people waiting on us. So it wasn't just like, you know, they're there for you. whatever you need, wherever you want, we've got you covered.

And as soon as the lady left and said, no problem, we'll take care of this. The person who I was eating with turned me and said, hey, you know, just at a place like this, don't do that. And I was like, well, what, you know, why? I was like, you know, we've had meals before. I've taken food to go before, especially at nice places. You know, you don't want to waste it. That's lunch tomorrow or something.

He said, yeah, but, you know, especially in these settings at a membership club, or it's good practice for when you're in a business setting or in a business meeting over a meal. you want to be able to have an abundance mindset. And when you take leftovers, it's almost like you're acting out of lack. Like there's not going to be enough for tomorrow. So crazy. It's crazy. We don't agree with that, by the way.

So, yeah, I understood what they were saying. But I also have, and this person is very well established, very great person, great heart, just heart of gold. So I'll say that for sure. And they were coming from a place of seeing me and knowing me. So they're trying to love me well. I fully believe that, whether I agree with what they said or not. But I also know that there are people in those situations or in those seats of prominence, established,

will take you to a membership club and have a meal, that kind of thing that will also say like, hey, man, I didn't finish having my meal, you should take it. Like, hey, and they're older gentlemen, 50, 60 years old, they look at me at, I'm 35, say, you know, hey, man, I remember even in those days, like where you're trying to build a company, you're trying to start a business, you're working in the startup. well, you know, make sure you don't waste anything. Don't waste any food. Take my meal and save it for lunch tomorrow. And you feel grateful for them seeing you and thinking of you and knowing what it's like to go through what you're going through. So it's just really interesting to see two very,

very similar situations on the surface and two very similar people in similar settings on the surface handle something wildly different. Right. And that taking food to go has a lack connotation. Yeah, one view to this lack and one view to this, you're being prepared. You're thinking through it and acknowledge what you're in. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying.

Yep, that's me, Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show.

I'm Anna Sinfield, and in this new season of the girlfriends... Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated

the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck. I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care, so they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he did.

I know the most about sports. So I'll give you the sports facts. My sports opinions. Because I'm pretty much a sports genius. What up, y'all. It is Sisson. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male.

I live on the west side of Nashville with Beezer, my wife. We do have a white picket fence at the apartment complex. Soon I'm going to have 2.5 kids. And yes, sadly, I will die of a heart attack when I'm 72 years old. Here's a clip from the last podcast. Carissa Thompson, if you guys did not see this story, she came out and said that there was a few times that when the coach was not speaking to her, or was late coming out of the locker room,

she would just 100% make up the sideline report coming out of halftime. And people are acting like she killed their dog and how she's unethical and how dare she? Like honestly, people, do not. Every sideline report is pretty much the same damn thing when they come out of halftime or they go into halftime. Hey, we played a good first half. You know what I mean? We ran the ball well. I wish we're a little more efficient on third down.

We got to get better at that. And we got to get off the field on third down. Thank you so much, coach. Good luck in the second half. Oh, I just talked to Bill Belichick coming out of the locker room and he just said, we got to run the ball better. I would make up the report sometimes. Here it is.

Because A, the coach wouldn't come out at halftime or it was too late and I was like, I didn't want to screw up the report. So I was like, I'm just going to make this up because, first of all, no coach is going to get mad if I say, hey, we need to stop hurting ourselves. We need to be better on third down. We need to stop turning the ball over. Press of the quarterback. Yeah, exactly.

And do a better job of getting off the field. Like, they're not going to correct me on that. I'm like, it's fine. I'll just make up the report. It would be very... So she said that on PMT just so we don't get sued. Yeah. Now, my question is, what's the problem?

Why are so many people upset? A, every sideline report is 99% the exact same thing. It's all coach talk. They never tell you anything. They never go into detail. They never give you good stuff. And honest to God, no disrespect to the sideline reporters. I just stare at their chest.

Nope, no, that's not what I was going to say. Wear a dress, girl. if they didn't have a sideline report, would it change any ounce of the viewing experience? No, but I don't know why we converted it to ounces. But what I'm saying is it's just part of the game. It's an element, if you will, no less. Yes, there's no, if the coach doesn't come out on time, what is she supposed to do?

Congrats to him. Is she supposed to say, oh, sorry, guys, I got nothing report down here. The coach hadn't come out of the locker room. Back to you, Jim. Nance? Thank you. I'm over here staring at the camera. Would you look at D.D. Bonner and Catherine Webb.

Carissa Thompson. We thought we were going to have you for 30 seconds. She only talked for 15. Now I don't know what to do. I'm all thrown up. I don't see the big deal. The big deal is I don't care. But all the women reporters now have said, I've trailblazed, I've done so much in this industry.

Because you're based off of how legitimate and your loyalty and your honesty and your trustworthiness and your obedience and your sexuality. Not that one. So you're based on all that And this kind of puts a crack in that foundation of We trust the media Do we, Ray? We're the media. Trust you. Really?

What did you learn? When you watch a sideline report, honest to God, what do you learn? Do you learn nothing? If you're batting it and the coach goes, I don't know, man. I don't know. We're scared out there, man.

I'm like, damn it. Cash out. He's terrified. We're losing the bat baser. He's freaking pissing himself. Corissa Thompson just said it. He just pulled out and pissed. So what happened there in the second half?

Well, our quarterback shit his pants, Corissa, you know what I mean? We're going to go in there. We're going to get his butt wiped at halftime and we're going to come out a clean slate. Nobody says that. They all say the same thing. I'm going to go in there half time. I'm going to preach, guys. It's a 60-minute game.

We played a good first quarter. We played a good second quarter. Now we can't let up in the second half. We may be up 21-0, but that means it's zero-zero when we come out of the locker room. It's the same crap every time. Coach, bless you. I get that. I get that.

But you're almost not arguing the point at hand. The point at hand is I talk to coach. He said this. In Big Brother you do that, you get evicted. In life, you make up stuff. Hey, hey, Bayer in the mountains. Eric Dodd said, you got a good butt. He didn't.

I did. I made that up. I made it up. That's what she did. Clarissa Thompson, she's doing playing the game of telephone. She came in, said, she said, I have been presented this by the coach. Therein she wasn't. What if I said, hey, lunch's wife, wife box. Lunch wanted a turkey sandwich. And then you came home and you said, what the fuck?

I wanted a pizza. and then you said, and then you said, where did you hear I wanted a turkey sandwich from? And she said, Ray told me you wanted a turkey sandwich. And you said, I never told Ray I wanted a turkey sandwich. It's food,

it's meat, it's pizza. It don't damn matter, does it? It does matter? Because that's not what you can order. And I'll hang up and listen. I think it's just under the guys that she talked to the guy. So it's like a,

even though it's a pointless shit. So what she should have said is, hey, the coach didn't come out in time, so I don't know what they're going to do. She should. It sucks that she said it the way so nonchalantly that she did. And then now all the, maybe other reporters are, but I see, I mean, Michelle Tofoya, Tracy Wolfson, they're all just ripping her. Everyone's like, I stand on my honor that I have always talked to a coach. And I have made sure that what he said was truthful and honest. And I reported it.

They're all, dude, they're all on their high horse right now. They are all acting like they are holier than that. And I'm like, guys, you are acting like it is so earth-shattering what she did. Who gives a damn? But you understand the basis of it. You just can't say that somebody said something. You could, dude, how easy is it to say, you know what, Mark? Jim.

Hey, Jim, Dini Potter. Holy hell, boy, she beautiful. Hey, Jim, just the gist of what I'm kind of feeling from the locker room, they're mad. not happy with how they're playing right now. You can tell a lot of loud noises come from. Noises from the locker room. That's what I got. So you can kind of get a feel.

You just can't say, coach said this. Hey, that's ballsy though. She would just make up some crap. Yeah. So maybe she should have just said, by the look on his face, I think he's mad about this. But I was unable to talk to him because he has not come out of the locker room yet. That's good reporting.

And I got on Twitter and I said, Listen, Michelle Tofoya, I said, Tracy Wolfson, I said, when we get audio, we get audio. I said, that's how it remains truthful. Do Julio, welcome to Titans Up, baby. Tighten up, welcome to Nashville, baby. How you doing? Can I snap a selfie real quick? See, I said, that's a difference, Tofoya.

We get audio at the sore losers. Yeah. Hey, it's Mike D from Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. Each week I bring you a fun movie topic. This week I hit you with some nostalgia and shared with you what I think are the nine most underrated movies of the 90s. These are the top three. If you want to hear the full episode, be sure to check out my podcast. But right now, here's just a little bit of Movie Mike's Movie Podcast.

At number three from 1994 is the best baseball movie of all time, hands down. I don't care what you say. Not the Samlott. It's not any other baseball movie in the 90s, 80s, whatever. This is the best baseball movie ever made. And it does not get the recognition it deserves. The movie I am talking about is Angels in the Outfield. It's about a kid played by Joseph Gordon Levitt who just wants the chance of having a family again.

And I just rewatch this movie recently because my favorite team, the Texas Rangers, had a chance to win the World Series. And I thought, I need to go back and revisit this because I was reminded of the deal he made with his dad was once the Angels win the pennant in this movie, we can be a family again. And Texas Rangers, if you're not familiar, they just won the World Series. But in the entire history of the team, never won it. So I feel like this movie could have played out now. Some deadbeat dad telling his kid,

hey, if the Rangers win the pennant, we can be a family again. And that was my inspiration to go back and watch this movie. When the Rangers were playing the Astros, I thought, man, I think it just pulled this off and make it to the World Series. I watched this movie for good luck. Rangers went on to not only win the pennant, but win the entire World Series. So now, every time they're in the playoffs,

I'm going to have to go back and watch this movie. But the movie was made for $31 million. It had an opening of $8.9. $9 million, it went on to make $50 million in its theatrical run. But if you look at the cast in this movie, yeah, Matthew McConaughey, Danny, Glover, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, this cast is stacked. And surprisingly, this movie was a lot more emotional than I remembered because of the fact that he is just trying to get his dad back who doesn't want him.

Dad, when are we going to be a family again? Where I'm sitting, I'd say when the angels win the pennant. You stay out of trouble, son. I almost cried again at the scene wherever he sees his dad in court and realizes what is happening. So this movie has it all. It has the emotion. It has the baseball. It has comedy.

It has all those things working together with the charm of the 90s and not enough people talk about this movie. So much so that it's even hard to watch this movie. I just happened to find out that TBS is carrying it. And since we have Hulu Plus with the movie. TV, live, whatever that is, I was able to watch it for the first time in years. So if you have Hulu Live Plus with TBS or whatever, you can watch it too. But it's a Disney movie. It needs to be on Disney Plus.

Justice for Angels in the Outfield. That's why I have it at number three. At number two is a comedy from 1998. It stars The Late and Great. Norm MacDonald. It also has Artie Lang. Chris Farley, which I mentioned that Almost Heroes was his last. last starring role, but this ended up being his final film credit.

You also have a surprise cameo from Adam Sandler in this movie. But what this movie is about is Norm MacDonald plays this character who is a loser. I guess we have a theme here and he finds success in a revenge for higher business. People come to him to do his dirty work, whether it be to deal with a noisy neighbor, a jerk of a boss, or the big evil guy in town who wants to destroy a retirement home. I could quote this movie all day long. From start to finish, I know every single line in this movie. And again, it's a movie that's not entirely appropriate.

And I know there's the kids who listen to this podcast. So this is the cleanest joke I can play from a movie called Dirty Work. Hey, Mitch, you're really starting to like this, Kathy, aren't you? No. Mitch, I know you, man. When you say no like that, you really mean yes. What are you talking about? Watch, I'll show you.

Mitch, did you ever rob a baby? bank. No. Did you ever climb Mount Everest? No. Did you ever say that you can see why women find Sean Connery sexy? No. Okay, so I like Kathy a little bit. And I still do that to this day. No. So that is number two. Dirty Work is an underrated movie from the 90s. At number one from 1998, the most underrated movie from the 90s is small soldiers. What this movie, is about you have these two guys who work at a toy company and they need the next big thing something that's so cool and innovative and hardcore that every kid is going to want to buy it and what they end up doing is putting missile technology in these toy action figures and they think

it's cool it makes them smart and they fight with each other and one of them is programmed to kill and one of them is programmed to hide and be the peaceful one so you have the villains and you have the heroes but what they don't count on happening is the chips end up functioning and they start not only attacking the other toys but start attacking humans. The movie had a budget of $40 million and it opened a $14 million, which isn't the worst opening. It did end up grossing $54 million at the box office so it had a little bit of a profit. But when you look at the highest grossing movies of the 90s and compare it to even the top 100 grossing movies of the 90s made at least $110 million.

As minimum, Lion King made almost a billion dollars at $970 million, or another iconic movie like Toy Story made $40 million at the box office. So a mere $54 million back then didn't really seem like a whole lot when you have all these other movies crushing it. And like all the other movies on this list, there are lines that have just stuck with me for my entire life. One specifically is in the final scene, wherever they're trying to take out the commando elites and you have them revolting against the family and revolting against humans and attacking them

with all these weapons they have created with things they found in the garage, which this movie gets a lot more violent than you would expect for a kid's movie. People get hurt. People probably could have died. But it's this one small little scene and this line that this toy says to the human that has stayed with me forever. What are you packing, tiny? Packing. Packing. Packing you. I continue to say that. Packing. back in you. But the reason I included this one as my number one pick is an underrated movie from the 90s. If you grew up

in this decade and you didn't watch and love this movie you're not a 90s kid. I'm sorry you have to appreciate the charm of this movie, the comedy in this movie, the action in this movie, the lesson you learn, which is don't put military technology in toys. We should all know that, right? Okay, that is the list. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me, Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions,

my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined.

This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth. You doctored this particular test twice in so much, correct? I doctored the test ones.

It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case. I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. Sunlight's the greatest disinfected. They would uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same thing. Greg Alespian and Michael Marantini. My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young.

Rule one, never mess with a country girl.

You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that trust your girlfriends. I'm Anna Sinfield. And in this new season of the girlfriends, Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck.

I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe.

On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Hey, y'all. It's Carolyn Hobby. podcast. I have a legendary artist. The lead singer of Skillet is joining me, John Cooper. He is 17 times platinum. He talks about having a spiritual perspective on today's culture, the influx of cancel culture, and knowing when you feel called to speak up and fight against something and live for something bigger than yourself. It is a really empowering episode. Check it out. John Cooper, the lead singer of Skillet, y'all have like, what, 17 million? Is that right? Did I I read that right? 17 million platinum?

Like, you've really done it. You've really done the full Monty here. Oh, that's nice. Thank you. I really can't believe it when I see the number. 17 million. I don't feel like we've sold that much, but, you know, I guess the numbers don't lie. But we've been doing it.

Let's see, 27 years. My wife and I have been married for 26 years. Some people don't know. My wife, Corey, is also in the band. So, seven years on the road. we raised our kids on the road and just so people know, uh, my kids ages.

My kids are my daughter will be 21 next month. My son is 18 just so you know who I am and what is all about. So I am so I'm just, I admire you and your career and how you're living your life on so many levels. I'm so fascinated to dive into your new book, Wimpy, week and woke. I mean, cannot wait to talk about this. But I,

I just, I really love that you are coming at culture from such a spiritual perspective. And it's not about either side. It doesn't feel like to me. It's more about just like we're, it's all wrong. It's all like not the right. We're not doing this correctly. And we need it's a spiritual crisis in other words, right? Is that kind of the vibe you're putting out there?

I absolutely think it's a spiritual crisis. I mean, you know, in fact, in the opening chapter of the book, It's sort of like, I call it the pre-show chapter, but it's an introduction. But I'm clever, so I called it a pre-show. In the pre-show chapter, I'm writing about the fact that sometimes people say, John sounds like you're getting hyper-political. Why are you doing that? And I'm writing, I'm saying, I never wanted to be political.

I just want to play music, you know. I want to be a rock and roll singer. I want to sing songs I believe in and meet fans from all over the world, which we've done, who disagree about. out everything. I mean, we travel the world and meet people from all sorts of religions, the non-religious, whatever. I don't want to talk about these culture issues. I don't want to sing my music, but something has changed so drastically. And we are witnessing what I believe is the destruction of our society. It is a spiritual calamity. I don't think we can

it over-exaggerated. And I felt that I was being forced to, to either, I mean, I didn't have to say anything, but to not say anything feels like madness. Like, you know that somebody is going down a path that is going to lead them into so much harm and so much, oh, tragedy. And I can help do something about it. And for my, the sake of my kids, for the sake of hopefully my grandkids one day, I feel like you got to say something. And I think that at this point, most people recognize we're in a tragedy. The amount of young people I meet that have contemplated suicide is so heartbreaking. It cannot be exaggerated. The amount of people I meet who are addicted to pornography, who are addicted to sex or, of course, drugs or whatever, who just can't find any meaning in life,

it is so utterly heartbreaking. And I just feel like we've got to talk about these things. And so that's why we do. I'm good that you're not scared to come right at it. Because I feel like that has been like, it's been such a cancel culture for so recently. But I really appreciate what you're doing because I feel like in these past few years, there has been like such a heavy influx of cancel culture.

And like everyone's scared to say anything and everyone has different opinions. And everyone is like so worried to like speak up or have, I mean, do anything. that could possibly cause controversy. And I feel like you are just going straight for it. And you're like, it is, this is so, like, stop everyone. Everyone's just getting their feelings hurt and getting so worried about hurting feelings. But there's a huge issue here that we need to tackle and we need to like learn tools to

tackle and learn the foundation of what's actually going to bring happiness and joy into the world and not just trying to fill it. And I love how you said it's like the man god. And then there's like the heavenly, there's like a heavenly God and there's like the manmade gone. And that's the crisis work. right now because we're worshipping like the human man-made God in all sorts of forms. No, I think that's so important. You just nailed it. I mean, like I say, I felt somewhat forced to say something because we see what happened with Skillet. As things were changing as the social

justice movement in the mid-2010s was gaining so much ground, there was basically this sort of like bullying that happened that was like, hey, if you're not speaking out against, you know, fill in the blank, I don't even, whatever, Trump, if you're not speaking out against Trump, or if you're not speaking out against what's happening at the border during the Trump or whatever, really, you just name it. If you're not speaking out against, or for BLM or whatever, you know, choose your topic, then you are part of the problem. You're part of the problem. You are being unjust. You are not loving people. And then that started infiltrating into Christianity. You started having a lot of Christians saying, yes, if you're not doing all those things, not only are you part of the problem,

not only you are you a bad human being, you are a bad witness for Christ. And I was like, dude, I just want to play music. And but what was even more than that is I was thinking, well, I don't want to speak out on your side on a lot of these things because I actually don't agree with you about that. I don't even mind that we disagree. I can still be friends. Can I just play music? And basically the answer was no, you can't just play music. And so I felt really torn between these two things, which is either, A, I'm being bullied and forced to say something I do not believe, which is what a coward does. I mean, no, I'm not going to do that, of course. Or I'm going to be called unjust or unchristian or whatever it may be. You're not allowed

to be silent. So I said, all right, fine, if you, this is how I said at my book, all I wanted to do was play music in peace. But if I can't play music in peace, then I'm going to play music in war. And you've poked the bear now. So you've poked the bear. You've made me speak out. And now I'm going to speak out and I'm just going to say what's on my mind because if I don't, I feel like the culture is going to hell so very quickly. And so we have to talk about these issues. I do think it's hard talking about them in love saying, I love you whether you disagree with me or not. But we have to say what we believe. And as you just said, Caroline, people get their feelings hurt so easy. And that's actually part of the problem. That's part of the kind of the humanistic culture we're living in is everybody

gets their feelings hurt. And now getting your feelings hurt is equated to harm. And when I grew up, getting your feelings hurt was just called going to school. That's so true. Getting your feelings hurt is equated to harm now when really that's a part of life is navigating that. I hope you enjoyed this week's Sunday sampler.
