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 get your podcasts. What's up, everyone? I'm Ago Vodam. My next guest, it's Will Ferrell. 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. Yeah, 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.

It's a big Sunday. We've got the Super Bowl, but mostly what people are going to be tuning it to is now this, the Sunday sampler. That's right. If you're not in a football, maybe catch up on some podcasts. The Bobbycast, Four Things with Amy Brown, Soar Losers, Movie Mind. Mike's movie podcast, Get Real with Caroline Hobby. On sore losers, Ray talks about life in the country now that is officially moved out of his apartment. On Get Real with Caroline Hobby, she sat down with Drake White and his wife Alex. They talked about their struggle with infertility and their IVF journey.

And this week's Bobbycast was super cool. I talked with director and photographer Spidey Smith, who shot all the Morgan Wallen album covers. He's directed Eminem and a music video. It was interesting to hear his life as a photographer and then a video director and just being creative way. So here's a clip of this week's Bobbycast. I used to collect garbage pill kids. Oh, yeah. When I was a kid and, you know, really all of them. And I collected baseball cards too. Your son still likes to collect cards. I'm assuming it's because of your passion for it that you've had it. What do you guys, like what's fun for you guys to find and how do you, how do you, do you buy them? Do you do breaks?

Like, what, how do you do that? We're not into that yet, but I wanted to teach him. he's a lot like me he's spazzy and he's just all over the place and so I wanted to slow him down a little bit teach him a little business stuff he loves John Morant so we nerd out on the Grizzlies and he collects actually

he doesn't like collecting sports because he's like they get injured they get suspended I don't I don't like it so he collects garbage buckets oh really that's wait that's they still make those huh they still make them though yeah oh they do numbered graded

all that stuff. I mean, like, yeah, $1,500 cards. You mentioned a minute ago, you mentioned tennis. I assume you played tennis then at some level because that usually doesn't come up. Do you play tennis still? I haven't played in the latter part of a year, but I'll tell you why.

I started playing tennis at five. I was 150-something-something-something in the nation as a junior tennis player in California. California is arguably probably the best state for tennis. Florida is good, too. Um, quit when my best friend cheated on me in a big tournament, broke like 10 tennis rackets over a trash can, and then never played until my wife, about a couple of years back,

said, you're a workaholic. You need to go play tennis. I didn't have glasses. I didn't have anything. I got back into it so diligently that it was distracting my work. It brought back that, that thing that I, are you obsessive? I'm, I'm, yeah, yeah. I'm not, not even saying, no, I'm impulsive, but,

Are you, do you get obsessed and then it's hard to not? Yes, yes, yes. I'm a go-getter. You know, if I put my mind to it, if it's something that I've locked into my brain, I've got to do it. To an unhealthy state? Yep.

I'm on OCD medication. And for a long time, I was just like, I just, you know, I really like stuff. But then I started to realize it wasn't natural, how much, and I could not focus on anything else. And I come from my family of addicts, but I didn't always put the two together,

but I'm on an OCD medication. So I asked that from somebody who also deals with that. And it would be a bit unhealthy for me because I would have blinders on whatever I was doing. And it would kill other relationships. I'm romantic, but I would just be me and that. That's it until I either conquer it or I'm bored with it. That's me.

Still? I would be on an anniversary, not with my wife, but I remember back in the day, I would be driving to a dinner and I would get a phone call from the post facility saying, hey, someone just canceled. We can bump you in. Like, turn over, go in and work. Hey, get dinner there. It's just, it's the way I am. It must come with some drawbacks. But I also think it's a superpower. I honestly believe that. I mean, I've met my family. I mean, I'm not like, organizing my shoes too crazy but my office is absolutely OCD organized I mean even before our our podcast I'm looking at the we have a collage of all my plaques and I'm like you know when you get a collage everything has to be all the squares

corners you're adjusting seven pictures when it's just a little off yeah I mean the Morgan album covers yeah let's get back to that how did how did how did those come about and I'm assuming the first one that's cool, but he wasn't what he is now. No, the first one I think was kind of probably something from the record label. But the first one, you did. I did. And they brought me in.

Got it. We hit it off great. I think all of our shoots, all albums, if I know me, dangerous and one thing at a time, have all been two hours or less, quick. The first one was definitely motivated by the label. We hit it off great. The second, can I go into a quick story? You can go into a long story?

COVID happened. And probably the second rock bottom that I've gone through, maybe third. But this rock bottom was worse than anything I've ever felt because I was married with kids. And it was, I hadn't worked in eight months, didn't make a penny living this down the street and driving a Tesla. and I had to change things up. It was real tough time. Anyway, I got a phone call in the new house, and I was off doing checklists.

The kids are off of school. Wife is trying to make some money. I'm home alone doing checklist, you know? Like, this is not what I'm meant to be doing. And this is on the, what, in month nine? And I get a phone call from Morgan's manager, tracker. He's like, hey, and I see it. I'm like, whoa, what's this?

he's like, are you, what you doing? Nothing. He's like, hey, how would you, were you doing Saturday? This was like Thursday. Would you like to photograph arguably going to be one of the biggest albums covers of country music from Morgan?

I was like, yes. He told me a little bit about it. It's going to be a double thing. We've already done some photos, but Morgan didn't think they were fitting. He requested you. And that meant everything to me at that time. I can't even, I can't, it brought me out of it.

It brought me out. It brought me out of the dark to know that someone really, at that time, there was a first phone call. The first phone call for work was Morgan wanting to work with me because he wasn't happy with what he got. He really wanted something unique. It's because of that he called me. That stood.

That was big. Was there a pressure then for you to go, okay, you want something unique? Yeah. I got to figure something out that isn't traditional, but not too wacky or it's going to be overboard. My style is to unarm the artist. To just shoot a bit of the candidness,

but make it feel like lightning just struck in a perfect location. You know, so like, you know, I'm obsessed with the four corners of the frame. if I got a great photo, but the background is not great or it's off or this and if somebody's coming, I won't use it. I don't care if it's M&M or Madonna. I don't care. It's got to go through my criteria process. And so I guess the only pressure I have is me.

Because Morgan's just, he's extreme gentleman to me. I mean, he's just like, he really does kind of, yes, sir, yes, sir, whatever you want. I mean, it's awesome. So I think the pressure is me, and I put a lot of it, a lot. Cass up roll things, little food for your soul things. Life ain't always pretty, but hey, it's pretty beautiful things. Laugh a little more things. Tighten up your core thing.

Said EK. 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. All right, Lisa, let's talk law seasons of life. sitting in discomfort. So this is a really hot one for me and I'm really passionate about it and I'm also very experienced in it. The last six months I got completely lost in who I am, what my purpose is.

If I was even ever going to do something like being on your podcast, do my own podcast, show up on Instagram. I'm like, I was just kind of like, I need to let myself turn into a puddle. I happened to have a very intense last year for anybody who's been through intense things or seasons of life. We all have right. You know what comes after. is kind of like it's just all feels very daunting and heavy. And it can also feel very hard to do simple things. And that was kind of where I found myself burnt out, maybe running anxious, depressed. And I had to really just like remove all of my identities and let myself get lost. Now, you might not have to do all of those things that I did in order to find yourself lost. You might just be

feeling lost. But what I found from this experience that I think we can all extract is how important it is to reframe our relationship to being lost. I think a lot of us think of like lost as bad, found as being good, right? But instead, like if we remove the attachment, the good, the bad, the labels to it, they're just states of being, right? Sometimes we're lost. Sometimes we're found. And every time I felt afraid to be lost, I'd imagine myself like swimming up to the top

of the ocean looking for air. And I find my heart beating and I felt so scared to be lost that I was like, I got to figure this out. I got to come back to the surface. And right before I'd come back to get air, I'd dive back down. And I'd be like, okay, be okay, being lost. Be okay, being lost. And this happened a few times in my life,

especially with like going off of social media, even for personal use. I found that I became kind of obsolete in knowing like what was going on in pop culture and things like that, where I'd go out with my friends and I didn't know what they were talking about. That made me feel like I didn't have a sense of like belonging. I was becoming too weird over there. But I stuck with it.

I felt nervous, but I stayed with it. And the more I stayed with Lost, the more lost became my state of found. And I know this sounds really strange, but it's like the ego dissolved. All of my fears dissolved. And the more I stayed in this state, the more I kept opening doors that I didn't even know existed to myself and just information about who I truly am. So I really want to help people recognize that you will be lost again. You will be found again. you will be lost again, you will be found again.

There is no permanency to either of these states. And if we can lean into the lost feeling and just remove the ego, the fear, the, you know, feeling like we need to figure it all out right now. I can't stay in the state. If we can stay with the discomfort, it actually gets so comfortable that the state of being changes how it feels. I had to spend a lot of time getting comfortable in the uncomfortable. And how did it feel?

And I think, yeah, it felt. really uncomfortable for a while because what I was used to was what was normal for me in that season. I mean, I have a lot of different seasons, but one in particular was very chaotic. And I think when things weren't chaotic, I'm like, well, wait a second. I kind of need them to be. So sometimes I was my own worst enemy because I was then creating chaos so I could feel comfortable again. So that was something that showed me, oh, wow. I am really uncomfortable with something that actually would be healthier for me.

And I keep going back to the pattern, back to this other thing because that's what I know, even though it's toxic or not healthier. And I was part of the problem. Like it was me. And sure, there were other players involved. But if I ever wanted to get unstuck from that, I had to learn to be comfortable with the uncomfortable so I could work. my way through it. Right. So whenever you got uncomfortable, you found yourself latching to chaos, creating it, creating drama in some way, rather than sitting with the state of, right? So I think

that's also really beautiful and important to recognize that when you sit in the puddle of lost in the difficult seasons, you're going to start grasping for things, whether that's Amy creating chaos or whatever your version of like rushing to the surface back is, the best thing you can do is recognize and become aware. And these are normal things. Like Amy, I hear you say it's a me problem. And it's like, that's a we problem. And it's not even a problem. When we are in any state of fear, we try to run. That is biological. But at some point, we need to put a hand on our heart and say, yes, this is scary, but I am safe. And I'm going to sit with this. And that can be really hard, especially because stillness, pending to yourself, are not things that we are necessarily taught or

normalized. In fact, they're probably very insidiously shamed. Like we're told to not be sensitive as little girls. We're told not to cry. We're told to get over it, you know, and even possibly worse for men too. So really being able to show up for yourself when you're that most vulnerable takes becoming so acutely aware of the inner state and your patterns and then dropping even further into the discomfort. But the coolest part of that is if you drop back into that discomfort and you stay with it for just a minute, it gets comfortable. And then the magic starts out. It's cool to get to know the different versions of you. And you know, you mentioned that it's, this isn't going to be, you're not just lost once and then found. There's going to be times where you feel lost again and then

you feel found again. That terrifies me. But each time you get to learn new things about you that you never knew. And that used to be a little bit scary. But now I'm like, oh, hey, new part of of me that was probably there all along. I just didn't know it, but nice to meet you. And thanks for being here to, like, help me on this journey. I love what you said because you said part of myself that's always been there. And the purpose of a me treat is not to transform. We use the word transform a lot because you'll leave transformed, but you leave transformed because you're coming home to yourself. And that's something that I think I'm also really passionate about sharing when it comes to wellness is like, you don't have to change. You just have to go inside. Right. And it's like,

then you go inside. And yes, things change, but they're coming from your place of truth. And the way you said that was really beautiful. 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.

I felt like I got hit by a truck. I thought, how could this happen to me?

Here's a clip for on the last podcast. Liared up and we're live. We are live. I mean, I just don't understand. You're looking live. Like, I just don't understand. I'm not mad. I guess annoyed would be more of a...

Adjective. I don't know. Well, you got to explain it. You're not speaking in sentences. Well, we come to do the pod, right? We come in the other studio, Clay and Buck, whatever. Their signs up, like they own this studio. They've been in here twice in their life. Clay and Buck!

And I walk in and there's a bunch of people just sitting in here with a bunch of guard, like gear everywhere. Like lights. Camera action. Like. I don't even travel bags and just, and this woman is working on her computer. And we're just like, oh, we're going to do our pod in here. She goes, okay, well, there just be some noise in the background then because we're going to be coming in and out getting things. What are you doing in my seat, woman?

Like using this as a storage unit. And I'm like, what? Like, what do you mean? You're going to, yeah, yeah, we're going to be coming in and out. We're doing that thing over there with the cameras and the filming something. I'm like, but why are you in here? then. Why are we using us as a storage locker? A gym locker. Like, am I crazy? No, I think you explained it beautifully. I mean, and then I love Ray. There they come. They're taking one of the

chairs now. It's the orthopedic one, no less. They took one of the chairs. Sorry, hey, don't mind us. My favorite part is the one stage hand didn't exactly know what all their gear was. So he started just grabbing shit from our studio he grabbed my backpack he goes this are not that's my back back man said what's next are they going to take our microphone here have my computer dude go ahead i don't need it take arnold hey get i belong to the sword lizards they tried to take arnold out of here dude he's ours i mean so the funny part is ray comes i just like okay whatever i don't know what we're going to do and so i just i was having a snack and I was like, we'll figure it out a minute.

Ray comes in here. It was a jump scare, Ray. Ray comes in here and this girl, I don't know what she does. I don't know. She's working on her computer. She's got her leather pants on. She's typing on her computer. She's sitting where I sit to do the pod.

Get out of my throat. And Ray looks at her and goes, oh, can you just move to the seat next to you? We're about to do a podcast in here. And she goes, okay, and gets up and just moves one seat over. Not, oh, let me get out of the room. Oh, you're going to do a podcast in this room. Maybe I shouldn't sit in here. Maybe I should go somewhere else.

She goes, okay, she literally just moved one microphone over. She's a new listener, try and not rip on her. No, she's not going to listen to this spot. She said she will. Right. I said, we get to swear on this podcast. It's unregulated. And she goes, no shit.

And I said, yeah, no shit. And so she's going to start listening. And I said, oh, you're going to listen. She goes, yeah, I can't wait. Which sounded like a very sarcastic thing. she's not going to listen, but it was just so baffling. Ray, those are the Hulu people. Was it not?

I don't know. Whatever. Hey, they're out. They're good. Well, thanks for warning me. I came around the corner and had an equally bad jump scare. You go to a space where you try to find some sort of normalcy. I thought you knew.

Dude, I walk into a room and there's 18 duffel bags like a minor league hockey team was in here. I thought you knew. But Amy, Radio Amy from four things. podcast. Four days. Four days with Amy Brown. In Bones' office, they had four different cameras right around this table. Lights. There couldn't be any more gear in there. And Amy goes and plops down right in the middle of it all and starts doing commercials recording them. I mean, she didn't give two shit. Hey, Amy is a, she lets nothing stop her. They may be shooting a commercial or whatever they're shooting in there. Amy's going to get her work done. We're in here in the

middle of doing our pod. Amy's going to come in and ask her. her question about, do you have anything from San Antonio? Tomorrow's San Antonio Day from my kids' school. I mean, Amy? Yeah, I have an armadillo in my pants. If there's one thing Amy's going to do, it's going to get the job done. Hey, oh, all right, that was a hell of an intro. Oh, my God, dude.

That was fun. I mean, what was your reaction? Like, what did you say to the girl? Ray, I'm going to sound off. What did you say to her? Like, because you kind of walked in here. I was trying to be social and actually talk to them and see how they're doing. And you just go, I don't know.

I don't know. And then you were walking around and not explaining yourself. So then I had to tell them, we have a podcast. And she said, oh, is it a little podcast? I said, yes, it's a little one. It's not the big show. But we have a convention. So how little is that?

Mother. Oh. Oh. Well, yeah. I think she liked us. I don't think she did. Oh. I think she was, I think, I think I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that she was more annoyed that she had

you leave the room. She had to pack up and leave, like, they had to pack up 26 bags and move it somewhere else. But I will tell you guys, it was an old-fashioned rivalry. It was TV versus radio, baby. And who won? Hey, it's Mike D, and this week on Movie Mike's Movie Podcast, I talked about movie birthdays.

The bit I'm betting into is pretty self-explanatory. So while I have you here, I just want to highly recommend for you to go over and subscribe to Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. Talk about movie history. I give you spoiler-free movie reviews, and I break down the latest trailers to let you know what is good coming out

or what looks a little bit bad coming out in theaters or streaming at home. So check it out. But right now, here's a little piece from the latest episode. I got a big old list of movies celebrating birthdays this year. Talking about movies turning 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 years old.

So what I did, I compiled the top 10 from each of these years which, to go into consideration, I scoured the internet looking at box office numbers, looking at critics' scores, looking at the most searched about movies according to Google. And for each of these years, I have what made the top 10. I'll rank them 1 through 10. And then we're going to play the fun game where I pick the one movie that I would save out of all of those 10.

And then also, just for funsies, we're going to set one on fire if I could eliminate one of these movies from existence out of these top tens from the year. we're gonna get rid of them. So let's get right into the list, right into the game. Movies turning 10 years old this year that came out in 2014. I was 23 years old at the time. The number 10 movie of the year is Nightcrawler, which is such a good movie starring Jake Gyllenhaal.

This was the one that solidified him in my mind as somebody who could really do it all. He had the look in this movie. He went to places that I kind of questioned exactly what happens with Jake Gyllenhaal behind closed doors because he played his character so well, who is this photographer who really takes it up as a hobby and realizes he can make money by taking pictures and videos from crime scenes

because if it bleeds, it leads. So he got so obsessed with it that he went a step further and a step further than the whole movie gets crazy. So if you have just one vision of Jake Gyllenhaal on your head, maybe it's more on the rom-com side, maybe it's more just on the straight-on action side. If you haven't seen Nightcrawler, Could not recommend it more, but that one comes in at number 10.

At number nine is Fury, which is one of my favorite war movies of all time. Maybe it's because Brad Pitt's in it, maybe because it has a little bit of Shile above. The entire cast is amazing in Fury and just a really powerful story and told with just the right amount of grit and the right amount of war action. At number seven is Gone Girl. It is one of those movies that will blow your mind the first time you watch it. At number six, American Sniper, which gave me quite the trip to go see this movie. in theaters, one that I'd remember vividly.

This was one where very specific moments I remember in this movie were the entire theater was shocked and you could just almost feel that energy. It was palpable. And man, some really great war stories here in 2014. That one's at number six. At number five, we're getting into the Marvel stuff. You have Captain America the Winter Soldier. At number four, Guardians of the Galaxy.

At number three is Whiplash, which to some people, this is their favorite movie of all time. This one took me a little bit to get. First time I watched Whiplash, I was like, that was interesting. J.K. Simmons is good. Miles Teller is good. But it really took all the nominations to come out and people hyping this movie up so much that I had to go back and watch anything. Was that really that good? And every now and then a clip of it will get posted on TikTok and I'll be like, okay, I get it now. But it took me a little bit to really warm up to the impactfulness of whiplash. And yes, on the surface, it is a movie about drumming, but there's also so much more to that. At number two is Boyhood, which was a movie that was shot over several years,

and that was really the whole, I don't want to call it a gimmick, but the whole premise in this movie, what really made this movie appealing to critics and why people really made this a notable movie was because of the way they filmed it. Got together every few years and filmed parts of the movie. that way in the film you were actually watching these characters age. Aside from that, I really don't remember exactly what happens in boyhood. Just a story about, well, kid growing up. But at number one on the list from 2014 is Interstellar. You could argue this is one of the best sci-fi movies of all time,

and I wouldn't call you crazy if you told me that. Another movie that took me a couple of watches to really love and understand, more than a couple, maybe even three or four, that once I actually went back, and it is a long ago, movie and sat with the idea of it appreciated the way that Matthew McConaughey just oozes emotion at all the right moments in this movie and you think about the entire idea behind interstellar quite magnificent but you would really expect no less from Christopher Nolan so out of those top ten if I could only keep one call me basic but I'm keeping number one mainly because

out of all the sci-fi movies in the last 10 years this one barely makes the cut it is the one that just has it all when it comes to the visual aspect of it, the storyline, the cast, the cinematography, and the score in Interstellar is one of Christopher Nolan's best. So I'm going to have to keep Interstellar. And the movie that I'm going to burn, and maybe I was a little biased when talking about it earlier, but it's Boyhood. Boyhood is going up in flames. And the reason is everybody told me how amazing Boyhood is.

And when I watched it, quite honestly, I was bored. I got it. I understood the appeal of it, the dramatic side of it. It's about a family, people getting divorced, all these coming of age things that happened to one kid in particular. And you see the kid actually grow up on screen. But aside from that, I don't really think it's that good of a movie. It's fine.

It's artistic. But I watched it once and I never need to watch it again. So if I had to get one movie, so if I had to get rid of one movie turning 10 this year, it would be boyhood. See you later. All right. Hey, y'all. It's Caroline Hobby from Get Real with Caroline Hobby. And here is a clip from this week's episode.

Because, honestly, you going from your stroke to you going to diabetes with your autoimmune disorder with your infertility stroke on, with your infertility on top of it, with the fact that you, you going. you, Drake, are a superstar and everyone knows it. And it's like, why have you not had your Chris Tableton moment yet? You know, it's like, when is it coming? Which, by the way, I ran into Chris Tableton at Walgreens looking for candy canes. And I did not know that it was Chris Tableton. And I, he was standing in front of the candy canes. And I was like, going up, looking around, there's this guy standing in front of the candy canes.

And it was freaking Chris Tableton. And I was like, hi, Chris Tableton. Is that my Chris Tableton moment? I think that was my Chris Tableton moment. I think so. And Michael had a song out with him at the time that they wrote 70s, years ago called Room Full Strangers, and I played him his song in Walgreens. This is my husband.

I said, remember when you read the song with Michael? It's out right now? Can I play it for you? And he's like, uh, what? I'm like, here, Chris Tableton. And I just played him song in Walgreens. So I had a Chris Tableton moment. You're like, Mary Christopold. I just need to announce my Chris Tableton moment. But it's like, why have you not had your Chris Tableton moment yet? You know, because you know you're supposed to have it. Everyone knows you're supposed to have it. Anybody who knows you, anyone who's followed your career, anyone who sees you on stage, who knows your songwriting your heart, all that knows you're supposed to be this huge thing.

But it's like, why has that moment not happen? And you fought for it for so long, and you got knocked down for so long. And it's like, it's so fresh, it's beyond frustrating, actually. Right?

Um, I mean, I battle it every day. I battle the, I call it the battle between your ears. And Alex's, she, she sees,

I'm such a deep personality, like as far as driven. Like, I'm driven so hard. And like, even though, you know, we've had Hawk and he is a massive priority, the biggest priority, music is, for me, is something that I don't even think about. I don't even try. It just consumes.

And, I mean, you know that. You're a musician. You live with one. And as far as what I've came, I'm super competitive. and I just, I really try to live in the fact that everything's happening as it should. Everything, everybody's for me. Everybody's for me. Nobody is, nobody's trying to manipulate the system so Drake White doesn't have his

Chris Stapleton moment. But you feel that way sometimes, I mean, I definitely feel that way. And I have felt that way and Alex talks me off the ledge. And I did it might happen tomorrow. I mean, because I am human, I don't. don't have it all figured out. I never will have it all figured out. My goal is to play Madison Square Garden three nights in a row, and I'm going to do it. I know you will. But there are voices in my head every day that says you're 40, your window of

opportunity is gone, your song is not enough. If you're not right with Natalie Hemby, you're not going to get the thing. If you're not writing with this guy, if you're not in this click, if you're not looking like this, if you don't, you know, have more hair. You don't make a TikTok's perfect. I mean, it's a whole freaking TikTok generation now. So there's a lot of pressure. But that's where the piece comes in of, I always pray this prayer, or my two, I call them the 2.30 a.m. shakes, you know, when you wake up at 2.30 and you got to peeve and then how you're going to pay the bills creeps in or something. Yeah. And you're like, hmm.

Then the mind starts racing. It's like, okay, I have all this faith in God, but I got to get back to my human right now because my bills are due. Yeah. And now I got a kid. The prayers. like, please protect my mind, protect my, put a hedge of protection around this house, around my baby and around my wife, and help me. Help me help, because I know what I want to do. If I put that in you. Yeah, with the platform. And you put these seas of people in front of me. You put

my dreams in front of me. And I know it's coming. I know that everything's setting up and I'm going to be blown away by it because why already brought us through what he brought us through if he didn't have something massive on the other side. I know. Whatever that may look like. And I surrender, and I'll say this, this is hard because I know what I want, and I think I know what he wants. But whatever my prayer is, you know, whatever is your will.

That's what I want to happen. And if it's for me to go playing nursing homes and all that stuff, that would right now I hate saying that because I love the fact of the, I'm so competitive and I see people and I'm like man that you know I'm better than them but it's not really that but it is that but it's not that but you're like listen you're a 23 year old guy who just started singing yesterday and now you're blown on on TikTok and oh my god it's like and you're not it's not even to like hate on them because I'm so happy for everyone to have their moment but it's like when you truly are this artist and this craftsman and this like it's

so deep in you and you've given your entire existence and like you're like you've given your entire existence and life and soul to it. And you've had like so many things, but it's never ticked over. You're just like, there comes these moments. You're like, what am I even this for? You know?

Yeah. I'll tell you this story. I've never told this story publicly, but it's the Riley story. Riley had this thing during the pandemic called the Golden Green. Yeah. And he had this thing that he lives,

he's from five miles away from where I'm from. Were y'all friends growing up? No, he was like five years younger. Okay. And honestly, and I'm really good buddies with him now. I support him. I love Riley.

I think he's an amazing dude. And shout out to Riley. Okay. He wants me to come do this Golden Saul series during the pandemic. I didn't know Riley yet. I can't really walk. I can't play guitar. I'm getting to the point where.

I have to drive him there. And Alex goes, you're doing it. I said, I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. I was so, it wasn't jealousy. It was just, you know, I'd been dropped by basically everybody that was my team was now his team. Oh, God. Talk about rubbing salt in the wound. And so everybody, every, I mean, literally, verbatim, like everybody. And then you just had the stroke on top of it. So it's not just, it's, you're just like on the mat. So that was one of the cell phones that broke was he, he, he, he's, he. He's, he. He's, he. He's. said if anybody, and dude, he's, like I said, he's a good buddy now. He said, if there's anybody, if there's anything me or my team can do to help y'all, let me know. Like, oh, maybe don't drop me. Break the cell phone. Maybe you wouldn't have dropped me and you could have pushed my song up the charts, but that would have helped. So we, we go do the saw, the golden saw series. And I told him, I was like, swallowing your pride right there. I mean, talk about taking a humble

pill. Like, not only you just got dropped, you just had your stroke. And now the hot new things calling you and asking you to come play and you're supposed to show up with a good attitude, man, talk about having. And he's got to play guitar on my songs. And he's so cute on top of it. He's like a little star out there and you're just like, well, shit. He's like, he's the most kind, good-hearted, of course he is. Human. And that's why when he called and was checking on Drake and, you know, we didn't, you know, there's a full circle moment. But I was like, if God has done, Wait a minute. I got, that's my punch line.

You're going to take the punchline. Don't take the punchline. Like, no. You're about to take the, you're about to say it. Yes, you are. Go.

I love how married y'all are. This is my favorite. We come in and we go and we go and do the thing and I'm still like, I do not want to go do this. Why would you? And she's, she's like, you're, I think you should do it. That's a good wife right there pushing you.

Well, through it all now that we're good buddies, we hunt together. we've wrote, I don't know why he hasn't cut some of the songs we wrote because they're great. But we're just saying really. Cut the songs. But we are buddies and I love this dude. I really do.

We'll be buddies forever. God showed me through that that if you will help him do what you want to do, I'll help you do what you want to do. But man, that's one of the, y'all have gotten some, this is why it's going to be so big for you. I'm sitting here pissed off. I mean, it's. You've got some of the hardest lessons, though. You've had to do the hardest lessons and you've had to put your face on through it. Yeah.

You know? It's just a constant reminder, though, you know, when you're going through the thick of it of like, you know, why are we going through this? Why are we going through this? Well, they're not going through it. They're not having to deal with this. Well, if God will do it for them, he'll do it for us. If God will do it for, you know, Riley. And who knows what Riley's struggles are.

He probably is a world of things. He never know what a man's going through. He is so just like. And who knows what he's had to deal with because that's what I've learned too. everybody is silent and struggling. And that was this week's Sunday sampler. Listen to the full episodes.
