Number one, coming up, movie mics, movie podcast.

It's a game. He challenges you to identify some of the most obscure. movie quotes, see if you can nail them. On sore losers, the president of the Nashville podcast network joins the guys. You know, they have kind of a resolution after a long time. And then starting us off, I talk with media executive Phil Becker, and we just talk about AI, AI and radio. He introduced the first ever AI radio personality.

We talk about social media. And so here you go. All these plus more Sunday sampler will start with this, a clip of my conversation with Phil Becker. The thing that I struggle with the most daily, weekly, monthly, in this format, which I love and grew up on, but I was also the Napster kid. So as much as country music was the Arkansas music,

and my grandmother raised me on even traditional, which I don't even know what current, like contemporary country was until later. I was still a Napster kid, so I had every influence. So it's almost that first generation, even in, like, I'm doing a project coming up the next couple months with Malcolm Gladwell,

who wrote Outliers and I blink. Yeah, so big fan of him. And Outlier specifically, you know, when Bill Gates lived in a town where there was a computer, he wouldn't have been Bill Gates if there wasn't, that computer wasn't in that town. Like, luckily, that environment worked out with the person that was accepting of it and pushed,

and the next thing you know, we have somebody who's changing media. I think I'm very fortunate to have been birthed in a time that allowed me to be on the front side of digital media, but where I was really curious, I was consumed by we don't have to live in this artistic box that we've been delivered in.

But I'm very fortunate. The same way Bill Gates was fortunate. He had a computer in his town. Like the only one for miles and miles and miles. I got to be at the age where I had digital media first. And because of that, I have all of these different influences

and from my most influential years. And so the one consistent thing has been other people, my age or younger, regardless of where they grew up, country, hip hop, they've all been influenced by everything too. So the standard has been in this format, which again, I know and love and I've dedicated my last 15 years to it, that anybody who comes over here must be a carpet bagger. because why weren't they here originally?

If that's the case, I'm a carpetbagger in a way because even though I grew up on country music and my first radio, I begged to get a job at US 97, they wouldn't hire me. And I did pop, but on my pop stations, I would put country artists on. But to them, because I wasn't completely,

I'm a carpetbagger, however, the thing I said with Beyonce was, one, if we're going to say to be country, you've had to always be country, then there's a lot of people that if you're not a black artist coming over on a slave ship with a makeshift banjo, or if you're not a European with a basic fiddle

and the combination of those is what influenced the South and the Southern, then you're not country. So all you white dudes who have your goatee and your sunglasses are yelling at me, that ain't country, well, if you want to keep going back,

if we're going to go back to the actual creation of country music, you ain't country. That's right. Secondly, I think also there is a problem, and I can understand this problem, and I understand why people feel this way, because I feel it too. If somebody is not succeeding in a genre, and they go, I'm just going to go into country because it's not working for me there. I can understand being insulted by that because, oh, where your, is it the easier format in your mind? Where your second place? Okay. Where you're, you think you can do it, because you can't make it

where you did make it. Now you're just going to come over and think you can just succeed over here where we are. To me, that's not so much about art, but it's like, oh, you think you can't be the governor of Minnesota, so you're going to move to Arkansas and run trying to be the governor because you think we're idiots. Right. So my point with Beyonce was she doesn't have to do that. She's doing it on her own. She's never been bigger. Ever. Yet she still wants to do country infused music. And some of the music that is considered country now, and I could go back and I've been in a couple documentaries where I talk about music, even if you go back to like Bob Wills, who is traditional, like extremely, he was the first guy that ever amplified a steel guitar, an electric steel guitar.

That's not country. Well, now it's, the first time they made an electric guitar, you can go to the greats who have all been told you're not country. Generally, the people that aren't country and make it are the ones that reset country. So people that yell, hey, your country music, I like traditional country. At one point, that traditional was not traditional was Beyonce today. That's right. And I've been lucky enough to sit with these artists who have been told that and actually

just Garth, for example, everybody, Garth's the greatest car. Garth wasn't country, according to 80% of country music for a while. Because how he was doing his concerts. So I've often said, the people that say that something's not country, they almost have to exist. But if everything stayed, the same country music would die. If everything stayed traditional, country music would die. Any art.

I just happen to be in this one. And that that ain't country. It's annoying as crap. But if it didn't happen, I don't think the format would be able to progress. So I was upset with the Beyonce thing. I got a lot of offers to go

and do all these TV shows, but I've found that going on when somebody else controls the narrative and you're talking about race, that's tricky because they will cut, they'll cut your promo. And as a white dude, I'm just like,

I'm going to talk about it in mine. Right. But I'm super happy that now, people are being way more understanding of black artists, female artists, bands. Anything that's not considered traditional country for now, because it's going to be traditional country in 10 years. And history is going to be on the same side it's always been on progression.

Well, you know, you talked about being the Napster kid and you talked about being the Bill Gates situation where if he didn't live in that town, there wouldn't be. I actually think that you and I, because we're roughly, the same age. You and I are going to be bringing children into the world, people that are younger now, they're going to laugh at us, dude. They're going to laugh at us and go, you told somebody what a genre was? That's offensive. You told someone how they had to feel about something? They're going to look back, and you and I are supposedly the outliers, right, the disruptors, the rule breakers, even us compared to where the world will be,

which is a beautiful thing, by the way, they'll laugh. It's very Socratic, I'll say, because we're so smart. We know we're not that smart. Like, I have no confidence that I know anything about art. I have confidence that eventually my sensibilities will get me to a spot that I realize I don't know, so I'm going to trust what I can find out.

Cast a row, things, little fool for your soul, life ain't always pretty, but hey. It's pretty beautiful thing. Laugh a little more thing. 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. I want to talk about a myth of dyslexia. And that is that it's a sign of low intelligence. Which is the furthest thing from the truth. A lot of your millionaires, a lot of Hollywood actors, Channing Tatum, are dyslexic. And they will talk about having to reread a script and re-read a script.

But these are successful people. These are very smart people. Albert Einstein, they said he was dyslexic. I saw a stat that like seven out of 10 millionaires, and I don't know how scientifically proven it was, were dyslexic. and you had her on your show from Shark Tank. I was fascinated with her talking about her dyslexia. And I had always told entrepreneurship is a great way for dyslexics to go because they think so out of the box has nothing to do with intelligence at all. That was Barbara Corcoran, by the way. And yeah,

it was cool to hear her say that, especially right after we had been diagnosed with it. And it's a spectrum. and you should get tested if you think you have it or, you know, you even said some adults come in to get their kids tested and they don't even know that they have it, but then they start to get curious. And for me, I think I always had a curiosity, but I would have never gotten tested because I just didn't put enough eggs in that basket that it could actually be dyslexia. But that's also because I had a misunderstanding of what dyslexia actually is. And I also have a question about it being hereditary. Does it often come from someone in our family? It does. It can skip generation, but like if you were to have a biological child, they would have a 50% more likelihood of having

dyslexia. All right. Well, quick question about that, because if I was meant to be left-handed, and I was, you know, encouraged to be right and that crossed the wires in my brain, because dyslexia, if it's hereditary, is it just because my brain was susceptible to that? Like, if I didn't have dyslexia and my family somewhere, which my sister and I have a theory that it was potentially our dad. And I wish he was alive so that I could have him to get tested, but he hated to read. He did not have discalcula because he was really great at math, but he was left-handed and he was very creative. And they're doing studies now like high school football players. They are finding that there can be a concussion-related dyslexia. New studies that have just come out. I've been reading

it just because it's fascinating to me that a brain injury can actually cause it. Well, I was getting some neurofeedback done. A year and a half ago is when I started maybe two years ago. And she did a little scan over on my brain. She said the front part of my brain, I guess had an injury of sorts. And your brain doesn't know the difference between an emotional trauma and a physical trauma. Yes. So all she could see was that there was trauma to the brain right there.

And she asked me if I had ever hit my head as a kid or anything. and I told her about a time that I was playing hide and seek, and I slid head first into my parents' bed because the bed was base. And I was about to get tagged. And so I slid and my arms went straight under on the carpet through the bed, but then my head hit the bedpost. And I had to get stitches. And it's right there.

And she goes, that's right when your ADD could have come into action. Yes. And I thought, what? I hit my head as a kid. kid and that could be my ADD. Like, I thought that was something you were just born with. But she said, yeah, no, that trauma to your head could have been the culprit. Well, and my son had brain surgery because he battled brain cancer.

So that was one thing that was really hard for us to separate. Okay, what is medical, what's educational, what is from surgeries, what is not? That's one of the reasons it took us so long to be able to find help for him. Well, what signs can parents look for? Like if they're thinking, well, maybe I should get my kid tested or maybe I should get myself tested. What are signs people can look for? There's different signs for different ages. So for the young ones, if they are having a really hard time rhyming, that's usually a flag. Because having trouble rhyming is the number one thing for younger kids that you see. And then you're riding your B's and Ds backwards, those kind of things. but that can be natural until about seven. Mirror writing, writing a complete sentence forwards or backwards, that's a huge flag.

And some kids realize that it's a cool trick and they don't want to switch it. Just realizing that I am not remembering things. And it's not an age-related thing. It's like, I read that whole paragraph. I can't remember what I was even looking for in it. reluctance to read is always a big sign, inability to rhyme, to change up your phonetics, your words, kind of like the test that we did after the Bobby Bone show,

where I had you switching around and taking parts of words out. Let's do an example of that and I'll do it. Okay. So the word toast replaced the first sound with a C. Coast. Yes. I think that's a good example. And then we did the syllable one.

Yes, that was why I called in, was Eddie talking about the cabbage, because he couldn't figure out why they were saying it had so many sounds. So cabbage is cabbage. A, B, A, J. Cabbage. It has five distinct sounds. It has more letters than that, and it has less syllables than that. but those are the phonies. And that was what he saw on TikTok.

Yes. Okay, let's run through that one. Give me a word and I'll do the letter sounds. Okay, so through. The, through. I feel like that one's a little tricky. It is a tricky one. Is it three?

Because it's the. That's one sound. Er, ooh. So through. Got it. It gets a little tricky, but we did a lot of those. and from the results of my test, and this is something I did one-on-one with you after the show, like a week or two after, what did that show you about what I had going on?

It showed me that you have a double deficit, which you have a phonological processing. You can process your sounds, but it does take you a little bit to be able to manipulate them. And it probably affects you more with your reading and comprehending because you, don't realize how hard you're working with your brain to get all those phonetics out into all of that. 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 fourth. 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.

This is a place for raw, unfiltered conversations with some of your favorite athletes, creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated. One week, I'll take you behind the scenes of the biggest moments in sports and entertainment, and the next we'll talk about life, mental health, purpose, and even music. The Clifford Show isn't just a podcast, it's a space for honest conversations, stories that don't always get told, and for people who are chasing something bigger. So, if you've ever supported me, or you're just chasing down a dream, this is right where you need. to be. Listen to the Clifford show on the IHeart 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. There's two golden rules that any man should live by. 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 Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. I'm Ego Wadam.

My next guest, you know from Step Brothers Anchorman, Saturday Night Live, and the Big Money Players Network. It's Will Ferrell. Woo. Woo. My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day. And I was like, and Dad, I think I want to really give this a shot.

I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place they come. Look for up and coming. talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, 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 podcast. Let's do it live. We are the one, two, three, so losers. What up, everybody? I am Lunchbox. 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. 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. I did play golf yesterday. Whoa, music bed. Don't know if it's playing or not. And I got a glimpse into what maybe our future is. maybe you and Justin's future, but it was like, wow, this is the future of a friendship or relationship that lasts so long. So this is a good story.

Yeah, I got paired up. Well, I show up. I just walked up because I didn't know if I was going to be able to play. So I just walked up. I'm like, hey, any chance you can fit a single in? He's like, oh, man, I got Teton's book the rest of the afternoon. But, oh, Phil and Bill, I mean, if they haven't gone yet, you can, you can pair up with them. And he goes out there.

Phil, Bill! Hey, this one's going to pair up with you And I walk up And they're like, oh, how's it going? Nice to meet you. Great, great to meet you. I'm celebrating my dad's birthday. But he's not here?

Oh, he's celebrating. No, I did. I was telling them. Somebody a single told me they're celebrating a birthday. Loser. They're like, oh, is your dad going to play with it? It's like, no, he lives in Texas, man. I'm just celebrating his birthday by being outside and playing golf.

Nice. And so these two guys know each other and fill, and Bill, they're like, I mean, chatting it up and they're nice, friendly. About the fourth hole, they start talking trash to each other. Phil's like, Bill, there ain't no damn way you're going to make that shot.

There ain't no way you're going to make that damn shot, Bill. And Bill trains it. Are they playing for skins? They're playing money. They're in a tournament and they play a couple times a week and they play money games at different courses

and they usually book three T times and they didn't get in the 3-T times, so they were on their own, and they just had to be honest about their score. Highly illegal, though, the betting. Yeah, yeah, I understand. And Bill looks at me and goes, you think Phil gets in my head

when he tells me I'm not going to miss a shop. I mean, I met him in 87. I haven't listened to a word he said since 92. And I'm like, dude, it went back since 80s, 90s. That's 40 years. That's what I'm saying. And I felt like, oh, my God, this is the future of what life is going to be.

be like if we are still doing this podcast in 30 to 40 years. Playing at the local shitty muny. And they were so funny the way they would talk to each other. I mean, one would hit a good shot and he'd be like, not that good. He'd be like, you could have hit it farther. You know, like, nothing nice

to each other. And it was all in good fun, but I banged your wife. No. Did you try and join in? No. Hey, I had sex with Martha last night. No. Coach, then they turn on you. Yeah, Phil and Bill and Bill get a love set.

I don't want to upset Phil and Bill. He's about to drive. I banged your wife last night. What? Bill gets out of the cart. You cross the line, son. Bill grabs his wedge and starts knocking me out. No, we didn't do any of that.

Come here, you millennial mother-bicker. I ought to just hit you over the head, you son of a bitch. No, then Bill tells me, he goes, Bill's always like, man, he goes, Bill's always bragging about how many fareways he hits. Oh, I hit eight fairways. He goes, but you know what he doesn't have? He doesn't brag about how many green and regulations he hits. He goes, he can say, oh, I hit eight fairways. How many gur's you get?

Two. Thank you. GER. Great. So then we're on the 10th T. Are you playing money with them? No, no, no. Because they're in a pool.

They're in a, like the T times after us, there's like three or four of them. Those are the guys that are playing for money. So they keep score. Then they go in the clubhouse and they divvy up their money. And at some point, we got to go to a country club and pay $10,000 a year. Because, I mean, you just going to a course and hoping for a tea time, we don't have to deal with that if we can afford a country. Here's the problem with the country club. You fork out $10,000, $30,000 to join.

You never get just to join. Then you have to pay per month. I don't know. Oh, you do? Yeah. Oh. But I feel like they always get the tea times they want. Well, probably because you're paying $50,000 for a tea time.

I went to this course one time with Bones. Bro, there was no T-times. They just, they said, we'll make sure you get on. You just show up and they get you on. Oh, that's sort of like the local muny when I call it on my, hey. No, not to say. I'm like, hey, I got a single.

Can I get a tea time for one o'clock? Oh, we don't put singles on the T-sheet. You can just come out and we'll try to get you in. Well, why would you not put me on the T-sheet? If I called and requested it, now you are down to three spots available for that T-time. it's that simple. Not putting a single on the T-sheet is stupid. Because then I am forced to play Russian roulette and hope I'm going to get out there and play

when I just show up at the course. Right. Well, and there should be 12-minute windows, and sometimes they can kind of fudge those a little bit and squeeze you in. Right, but I'm saying to say you don't put a single on the T-sheet, so if I called the day before and I'm like, hey, I want to play at 1 o'clock tomorrow. Sorry, we don't put singles on the T-sheet. Cool. Then I show up to play at 1 o'clock.

They're like, ah, yeah, you're going to have to wait until 1. Why? I called you yesterday and said, I want to get on him 1. That's the Muni life. I mean, it's so frustrating. What about your thing, though, you do? You say you have a friend, and then you show up. He canceled last second, man.

I should do that more. I always say two, and then, oh, man, he's not going to make it. Okay, cool. You're a... We got, be a Justin, got a little hookup. A member passed. And so we got his name. Oh.

So we can use his name. Rest of peace, man. No, no, no, he didn't. He just doesn't go anymore. Oh, oh. Yeah. My bad. But anyway, back to Phil and Bill and Bill.

Oh, my gosh. So we're on number 10, right? And I'm like, oh, so how did you guys meet? And Phil looks at me and goes, dorms, 87. Oh, my Vanderbilt? No. Tennessee. The vault?

Yeah. Did you get any inside information on the game tonight? I did not get any inside information, but they are big fans of the Vols think they're going all the way. That's inside information. Thank you. Yeah. But they did look at me and they said, yeah. Phil goes, I came down the stairs and I saw them over there playing ping pong.

And I was like, I can whip their ass at ping pong. And he said, so I walked up to the table and said, I got next. And I was like, really? So how'd you do, Phil? He goes, oh, Bill was the best ping pong player. He smoked me. He goes, but that's where it started is at the ping pong table in the dorms. You go to ping pong?

I used to play my brother. He used to beat me because he was older, but now I whoop his ass. Really? Yeah. You know who's really good at ping pong? Garrett. Oh, the grocery store guy? Yeah.

What does he do? Play in the aisles with, uh... No, they play over the aisle. He does cake batter mix, puts it up and then gets a beer pong thing from all the aisles. 100%. He's really good. It's actually pretty competitive when it's me, boomer, Muffy, and my mom.

Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Boomer, me, my mom, and Beezer. That's really competitive. It can't be that competitive. Yeah, it is, because me and Boomer are about even, and my mom and Bayer are about even.

Okay, so you play double. Yeah, we play doubles. Got it. Dude, it's awesome. We went forever at the condo. That's fun. Yeah. That's a good time.

Yeah, I mean, Garrett, I mean, the drunken nights at his house, he has a ping pong table in the garage, and he'd back his old Camaro out and set up the ping pong table. played till three or four in the morning. We had a ping pong table at Metropolitan Billy brought it in. Guess how many times we played our senior year of college?

Two. Zero. Oh. We played a thousand games of beer pong, though. Okay. We never once played ping pong. So it got his money's worth. We used to play ping pong when we'd go visit my mom's parents, my grandma and grandpa on my mom's side in Chicago.

They had a ping pong table in the basement. Such an easy thing to have. Oh, my gosh. We would play for hours down there. That was the only time we never played ping pong, except we went to go visit him. And of course, my brother's two years older than me, maybe two and a half years older than me. I don't know exactly how you do the math.

So he was obviously better than me. So I'd sit down there and play him. And he'd beat me back one more game. Play him again. He beat me about just one more. One more game I connect four. Just one more. Just one more.

And we would play forever. It was so freaking fun. This is going to blow you. So get on your knees. They now make little things that just attach to any table. for ping pong. Well, you need a ping pong table. You need the proper bounces.

Nah, you can just do a kitchen table. No, no. We did it in my grandma's place. It was me and Boomer just smacking it over Christmas. On her fine china table. Okay, that might be fun. It's a not legal regulation size. It sucks when it goes to the end because they're rounded.

Yeah. And so it'll just fall off. So back to Phil and Bill. We're on the course, right? Part five. And then they start talking about, oh, dude, you know what we used to do for hours? He goes, RBI baseball. And they started breaking down which team they would play with.

And they started doing the sound effect stratomatic. And I was like, this is exactly what we did. But I was eight years old. And they were in college. It's Caroline Hobby. And this week on Get Real, I have such an incredible podcast with Cheval. She is one of the world's best wedding dress designers, but had signed a terrible contract and lost all the

rights to her birth name, could not be a part of any of the wedding dress design industry. It was a breach of contract. So she had to reinvent herself, start a whole new brand. Now she launched as Chival and she sells amazing shoes with such heart, such soul, and tons of glitter. Her story is phenomenal. She's an inspiration to young women on how to take ownership of yourself, of your brand, how to be prepared. paired, how to be smart, how to be savvy, and how to be a boss. And she also teaches us that when everything falls apart, you can rebuild and come back stronger than ever. So get excited for this week's episode of Get Real with Chival. Okay, so looking back now, because you've now gone through

a divorce with your relationship romantically, but also with your business, you know. So you've obviously dealt with some red flags that have materialized into like kind of erupting. What are, you know, you always have the red flags just go away. And now it's erupting and you're like, oh no, it's coming. So red flags, can you kind of speak to all of us out there who are living with blinders on and young because it started when you're young? Do red flags ever go away? I don't think so.

I don't know. I guess it's all relative and there are exceptions. to the rule. But I do think I relate to a lot of women that have that intuition or that gut feeling that you ignore or you push down or you come up with conspiracy theories against yourself of like what it's not, you know, because you want something to happen or you want it to materialize in a certain way. And it's always like close. It's like so close. There's so many things that are so good about it. You're like, it's like 70% there. Let's just not worry about the last 30% right. Exactly. It's the majority overruling. That's right.

Yeah, we're going to round up. Oh, goodness. And then it starts to grow the opposite way. Right. Yeah. But I don't know. I do feel like tenacity and resilience and just like the idea of success is really about just like recognizing the ebbs and flows of life, but knowing that the failures are going to happen, the mistakes are going to happen. And if you can maintain your light, you know, and maintain your enthusiasm for what you do, that is a sign of success for me.

This is your message. Oh, that is totally the message. No matter how successful you are in your personal relationships or your business relationship, your actual message is maintain your light through the dumpster fires. Exactly. Yeah, and it be lighter than that dumpster fire somehow. Like, outshine the dumpster fire. I saw this too, and you have so much in common with Taylor Swift, you know,

because she's in legal battles as well. But also she said, too, like she's had so much stuff on her. And she said, you just have to get through all this. and then have more fun than everybody else. And I'm like, that is so true because when you're going through the worst stuff, it really takes your fun away. It takes your light away. You can really like crawl in a hole and die.

Yes, you cannot unpack and live there. No. Because you'll take a visit every once in a while. Do you have to like a vacation there for a while? Did you have a permanent stay for a minute? Not a permanent. Do you have like a residency for a second? I did.

I absolutely did. I feel like that's the healthy thing to do. You got to get in there. And you have to like meet it. and say who the hell are you? What are we doing? Like, what do you want for me? Yeah.

And I think there's a bit of accountability to, in that space. Because when something like that happens. Accountability. Look at you claiming some stuff. Because there's always your side, their side in the truth, right? There is like a, okay, well, there must have been something that I did for this to happen. You know, and I think in accepting it and owning part of it. That's maturity right there.

It's maturity, but it's also like, I didn't know what I didn't know. Right. And then, like, I am paying the debt. for my own naivity or ignorance. And don't we all do that, though? We do. You just sit on a bigger scale. Ugh.

On a legal scale. Way out there. Okay, so now that we, let's move into plot line B here, which is where you really, like, hit your stride. Like, you become the wedding dress designer. You are the face of say yes to the dress. Like, how did that even happen? Let me throw a few things out there and then let's unpack it.

You become like the face of say yes to the dress. Like you are helping like over 40,000 brides. find their wedding dress or something like that? Like thousands? A lot. Thousands. It was wonderful. You are the it wedding dress designer.

I mean, everybody knows you. Everybody's talking about you. You're pinned on everything. It's like, that's you. It's not the name, Chival, by the way. It's a different name. Correct. Which distinction is needed.

Yes. Because Chival is not wedding dress dresses. It is wonderful. That's plot line. See, so we'll move to that later. There's just so many things. I don't want to get confused. I know.

You're doing a great job. Okay. And so you become this, like, epic designer. And you probably needed some money to get your business going, right? Or something. A little, a little. Because you found a partnership. And this partner, you found a company to back you financially, right?

Oh, this one, yes. Yeah. Yeah, because we're back on, like, we're back in the beginning. We're a plot. Yeah. Well, Plot B was childhood. Now plot B into, like, your career. So you are going to launch and become the successful wedding dress designer.

But do you need a backer? you need someone to help you launch this? Yeah. So basically it was a house of brands existing with other designers. And it was almost like a plug in play in that like they had existing distribution and manufacturing. And then, you know, I was coming to the table and was offered an employment role as a head designer. But it would be using my name as the name for the collection.

Okay, wait. Okay. Okay. So this is the part that we got to break down. You were, this is like, it's almost like a record label. So like there's a, actually. I can speak in music terms. There's like a record label and you're going to be a signed artist.

But the record label owns is like the machine behind it all. But you're an artist signed and the artist is using your name. So you're going to be the brand and you're going to have the creativity, which would be like your songs that you create and you put it out and you go tour and you're the face of it and all that. But yes, you are technically kind of owned by the record label or the bigger brand. Yes. And every contract is nuanced, right?

So it's not always generalized, but in my case, it was an employment contract as a head designer. Okay, an employment contract as a head designer with this big brand, but the name is going to be your name. Correct. Yeah, so I had to give rights for my name to be trademarked because it was the name of the collection. I don't think anything of that when you're 25. Probably actually sounds maybe cool. It was the, yeah, chance to shoot my shot. And I think being that age, and I had a little industry experience under my belt about four or five years.

And I'd already spearheaded my own collections and been designing very heavily. I had a robust resume coming in. Okay. You had some, some, you were cooking with grease. Oh, cooking. Yeah, you're cooking with grease. I love it. I saw that from Lainty Wilson.

She had a song called Cooking and Greas. Yeah, I love it. Yeah. Yeah. So, and then, um, so they were, you were desirable. They wanted you. Absolutely. And I actually sought them out originally.

And I presented, you know, a bit of a business model. and it happened very fast. So from the time of like, you know, we're going to offer you this to like, here's the contract. And I think at the time I just didn't want to lose my opportunity and knowing how many people want to be designers and get their shot. And I felt like the responsibility was on me wholly to show them what I could do and what, like, and to agree maybe to what they want so you could. Yeah.

And not be combative, not push back, not ever like put anything out there that would ever see. seem like, you know, I'm not a team player. And I think a lot of young designers relate to that and thinking, you know, if I show any sign of being difficult or they're going to walk away. They're not going to want to work with me. And I'll lose my opportunity. Exactly. A win is a win.

A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me. Cliver Taylor the fourth.

I went and had lunch with them one day and I was like, and dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah.

And this week on Movie Mike's Movie Podcast, I did obscure movie quotes from famous movies, whether you're just a casual film fan or consider yourself a movie buff.

It's fun to play along and try to see if you can name where these obscure movie quotes are from. So here are a few from the episode to test your knowledge. If you want to hear the full thing, be sure to subscribe to my podcast. But right now, here's just a little bit of Movie Mike's movie podcast. Here is the first obscure movie quote, name the movie. That one should be pretty easy. His character has a really distinct voice. The year is 1994.

And again, here is the movie quote. And big old fat rain. This is not the biggest quote from this movie, but the one I find would be one of the most memorable, obscure movie quotes. And the answer is, Forrest Gump. I just love that seed of him going through all of the different types of rain.

And that one always just stick out to me, just big old fat rain. Obviously, I think the most overrated movie quote in this movie is life is, life is like a box of chocolates. That is probably the first movie quote I learned ever. I think even before I watched Forrest Gump, I knew that quote to the point that I saw it in the movie. I was like, oh, that is what that is from. But there are so many great, really obscure movie quotes in Forrest Gump. That one just happens to be my favorite. So again, starting off easy. Here we go. Here's the second

obscure movie quote. Hey guys. Oh, big golf, huh? All right. Well, see you later. Also from 1994, can you name that movie? Here's that obscure movie quote again. Hey guys. Oh, big golf, huh? All right. Well, see you later.

There's a famous story behind this quote. This actor is known for improvising lines. And in this scene specifically, there are two other people he is interacting with that are actually not actors at all. They weren't even paid for their role because they didn't have any speaking lines, which, If you watch a movie and notice there are extras that don't say anything and it feels weird at times because you have these two, maybe three main characters talking, having a conversation. And there are other people that if you were in a normal situation would definitely have something to say or react to what is going on. That is because if an extra speaks a line, that person has to be paid. They don't always have to be credited in the movie credits.

But if anybody speaks a line in a movie or a TV show, it starts to become a more and more expensive production. So in this case, these two other people who are in this scene didn't make any money. So here's the quote one more time. Hey guys. Oh, big golf, son. All right. Well, see you later. And that movie is dumb and dumber.

That is essentially me in every single social situation I get into. I have nothing to say. I am so socially awkward. My biggest worry every time I am with a group of people is I am going to run out of topics to talk about unless they want to talk about movies. And even if they want to talk about movies, my social anxiety takes over and I feel like I'm talking too much or feel like I'm way too nerdy. So that is me. That is me making conversation. Moving on, can you name this obscure movie quote?

Celebrating its 25th anniversary. I remember laughing so much at this scene whenever I first watched this movie. movie. I'll explain exactly what is happening in this clip and the reason I was laughing so hard. But again, here is that obscure movie quote number four. And that movie is South Park, bigger, longer, and uncut. It is the scene wherever they dare Kenny to light his fart on fire. And then Kenny is engulfed in flames and they are trying to put him out. And if you're unfamiliar with the show, South Park, you're probably a more refined individual than I am, but in every single episode of that show, Kenny dies in some really weird way,

some really brutal way. And in the movie, he goes out by, well, lighting his fart on fire. And then Cartman, who is that voice you heard there, is trying to put out the fire with a stick. And instead of being concerned with this friend Kenny on fire, who is probably going to die, he's instead worried about the stick being on fire. Can you name this movie? Who shut your mouth when you're talking to me?

I just love the reaction from the actors in this movie. This scene takes place in the opening part. You have some people in a legal hearing, and this is what one person says to the other party. Again, here is that movie quote. Who shut your mouth when you're talking to me. And that movie is from 2005 Wedding Crashers. The 2000s were riddled with great movie quotes,

comedies in particular. If I could go back and recreate one, decade of movies, it would be 2000 comedies. And speaking of 2000 comedies, this isn't a full-on comedy. It's kind of a dromedy. Can you just hold on for a second? I'm on my hamburger phone. This movie had so many great memorable movie quotes.

This one was more on the obscure side. But I remember at this time in 2007, this was a really big time for movie quote merchandise. Any movie that came out had to have some t-shirt at Hot Topic with any obscure movie quote. because people were eating these up. I think the movie that really started this trend was Napoleon Dynamite, which was kind of an unexpected hit in the early 2000s and did really well on merchandise.

And the 2000s were also a time where graphic teas were king. You weren't cool unless you went to J.C. Penny's or Walmart and got a funny graphic tea with something novel written on it. Now, I'm not going to lie, it looks a little bit outdated if you're out in 2024 with a graphic tee like this. Hey, if that's your thing,

more power to you, but also you're probably stuck in another decade. But again, here is that movie quote. Can you just hold on for a second? I'm on my hamburger phone. And that is from 2007 June. What a great movie that really holds up as a fantastic cast, a fantastic soundtrack, and a bunch of killer movie quotes. Thanks for listening to this week's Sunday sampler.
