We can explain how AI works, data centers, but there are certain things that we don't necessarily understand. Better version of Play Stupid Games win Stupid Prizes.

Yes. Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift, who said that for the first time. I actually thought it was. But hey, no one's perfect. We're pretty close, though. Listen to the Nick Dick and Poll show on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, Bobby here. Sunday sampler time.

So let's do some samples from some of the podcasts on the Nashville Podcast Network. Mike D's Movie Mike's Movie Podcast takes us on a journey of core memory movie movie moments that live in his head in his life. And then he also reviews the comedy bottoms. Caroline Hobby talks with one of my favorite new artists, Tierra Kennedy. On the Bobbycast, though, George Burge stopped by the house. Love this dude. He talked about his first top 20 single, Mind on You, his journey to success, and a fun fact about his parents that I didn't know, George's friend of mine.

So let's get going. Here's a clip from this week's Bobbycast with George Burge. You're playing golf in college and then, but when does music become an actual, I don't hate to use the word tangible, but it starts to be a tangible thing again that you can actually do. It was the biggest, nobody was more surprised. me that that I got to play music for living. So, uh, finished college, got my degree. Um, I went and got a job in Austin. Um, they, this company that hires a bunch of young kids fresh out of college to do, you know, busy work, live downtown. It's awesome. And that was a cool culture because it was a bunch

of people that were moving new to Austin and I was the guy from Austin. So I was getting, you know, getting into all these people and taking them out, showing them the city. And, um, I met a guy that play guitar and uh you know same thing i was like well we should you know start jamming and so once a week he'd come over to the house and we'd kind of jam together play mostly cover songs right a little bit and then um i'll never forget uh one of the guys that worked with us his brother had just bought the lucky lounge um downtown austin and re did it and they were having an open mic and i went and did the open mic at lucky lounge and our whole office came which was like oh you played it why which was like 250 people because they knew that I played guitar and they're like just hop up and play two songs.

So they kind of pressured you to do. Yeah. And it was, I mean, I was in like khakis and a button down shirt with like, you know, not. So, okay. So you didn't plan this out way, way ahead of time. No, it was like popped up on stage that night. Okay. So wait.

So when do you hear about the open light night? That day. They were like, hey, our buddy's brother just opened the Lucky Lounge. and she's going to have an open night, Mike Knight's night. We're all going to go down there. Will you pop up and play one? And you said? I said yes.

Yeah. I said, you know, I still enjoyed playing. Like, it's something that I've always loved. And so I popped up and I played two songs. What did you play? Security. Gosh, I wish I could remember. Security.

I hope it's security. It was probably security. Yeah. But then it was, you know, people were like, well, you should start doing shows. And, you know, a lot of the people I was working with were encouraging me to pursue it a little bit more. Which was cool. And so a few of us from the office. started this band, we started playing, and it was, we'd play Friday or Saturday nights at the

Rattle Inn in Austin, and that was it. How'd you get the gig? Cold called him. And said, we'd like to play. What does that pay? Zero dollars. Tips? Tip jar?

Yeah. And by the end of it, they were paying us because we were starting to draw a crowd. But then it became a thing. Every Friday night, we were playing the Rattle in and it was sold out. It wasn't a big room. It was three or 400 people, but it was kind of a cool factor of like, hey, we're selling out this club every time we play it. What was the sound at the time?

Were you guys doing covers? It was country. Oh, yeah. It was country and it was covers, but it was like 50% originals. Yeah. Had a steel guitar player, had a fiddle player. The name of the band? It was called Waterloo Revival. Yeah.

That's the first version of that. That was the first version of Waterloo Revival. Yeah. And the cool part was we all played for free. And then we split the tips at the end of the night. And we started end up getting to take a cut of the door and it got bigger and bigger. And then local radio station kind of caught on. invited us to play blues on the green.

KGSR? Uh-huh. And so we went out there and played that, had a huge crowd, and I didn't know at the time, but a big label executive and a big manager flew in to see us play and ended up pulling us aside after the show and asked me if I wanted to fly up to Nashville to meet them. And this is all coming at me like a million miles an hour because I've never, you know, had any contact with a record label in my entire life. How do they know to watch your show or were they there to watch somebody else and then see you?

So the guy that owned the radio station sent them my music. Wow. Yeah, which was really cool. Bob? Bob Sinclair. Yeah. Wow. Yeah.

Yeah. Sent my music to Scott Borchetta and T.K. Camberle. Yeah. That's great. I mean, it all makes sense. Now, when I start to lay it all down in my head. Yep. That's how I know.

I mean, I know Bob, too. Yeah. So I gave Bob a burn CD with the one song that the producer agreed to cut on me in Austin. He was like, I'll do one song. I won't do a full record. And I will say that he put everything into it. And it was the best sounding song I had at the time. But I had one song on a burn CD.

And I gave it to Bob. And he mailed it to Nashville. That's crazy. Wow. So when you talk about like less than 1% chance of any of this stuff happening and the stars aligning like they did, I just like I never in a million years thought that I could play music professionally. I did it because I loved it and it was fun. But then that people are talking about record deals and you need to get a little.

lawyer and do you have a publishing deal and, you know, royalties. And I have no idea about any of this stuff. Who are they looking at, though? You obviously, were they trying to go, okay, Zach Tack, we just want Zach Morris? Or were they going, we want the whole Waterly Revival? They came to me independently and then I had a very close friend that I wrote a lot of my songs with, Cody Cooper, who was the part of Waterloo Revival with me. We were a duo. And I asked if we could come to Nashville as a duo and they were on board for it. And so that's what we did. We signed as a duo. You moved to Nashville. That's great. And that's about where I started to know you guys a little bit because Eddie and I, we consider ourselves from Austin, even though Eddie's from a different

part, Texas and I'm from Arkansas, we are very much Austinites, like in our blood. And then you guys would come and we like, oh, yeah, they're from Austin. But I knew you guys had a relationship with Bob. Yeah. But I didn't know that's where all that. That's, that is wild. Which is crazy because he didn't even own a country station in Austin. And Bob Sinclair, you know, own stations all over America, you know, big powerful radio guy. And, you know, I ended up a burn CD. He called me back the next day. He said, I've never called back anyone that's given me a demo before, but I think you might have something. And just from that phone call, I was like, I've made it. Like, we've done it. Like, we've taken over the world. I'll never forget.

We were opening for Reckless Kelly the next week in Austin. And I called my wife after I got the call inviting me to open for Reckless Kelly. And at that moment in time, I was like, we are famous. We are opening for Reckless Kelly, and this is like our lives have changed. Little did I know, you know, what the real path looks like. That's so cool. That's such a good version of that story. I mean, that version. I didn't know that.

So wait until Eddie finds out that your parents were Portuguese. Does he know this? He doesn't. No. Eddie and I thought we knew George. We didn't know George. Like, we have hung out with George a lot. Like, we are like friend friends, but I guess we're not.

That's what the Bobbycast does, man. Wow. That's a deep dive. Lave a lot. Cast up road things. Little fool for your soul. Life ain't always pretty, but hey, it's pretty beautiful. Thank you.

Light for little more things. Tighten up your core thing. 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. As we're trying to become a worry-free parent or a worry-free person.

Yes. I know in the book you talk about uncovering the roots of our own anxiety. What does that look like? Obviously, it means we have to face some stuff. Yes, yes. I think I have a sentence in there about past hurts and present pressure dictate future fear. And I think we just get into the voices. Say that again.

Past hurts, which we all have them, present pressure, which I, I have never seen parents feel as much pressure as I do today. It makes me crazy. What do you think is attributing to that? I think social media is a huge piece of it. And the families that we see, that we only see their highlight, real, that whole idea. And, I mean, honestly, I think parents are following too many experts, which is funny to say when I'm kind of putting myself out there a little bit like that.

But you know what I mean? You have 30 different people telling you 30 different things. Of course you don't feel like you can get it right. Yeah, follow at raising boys and girls on Instagram. and also at Sissy Gough, those are her accounts. You're the best, Amy. But you're, y'all are good experts to follow. But you mean there's just, when you're getting so much information, it's overwhelming.

Yes, all those things then spin us out into feeling like, I'm not doing it right, or my kids not measuring up, or there are all these things that have to be doing. I mean, even the whole, there's that movement right now about you have 52 Saturdays a year and you have, you know, however many days in there. life before they leave your home. You know all those things. Yeah, this is like one summer out of only 18 you get to make it count. Yes. Stop. Whoever's saying that, please stop saying it. Because I think it's just increasing the anxiety and all of us. Like, oh, I've got to make this time count and I'm not, I'm distracted for a minute or I miss something and just feels so much pressure. Yeah. I've seen those and

they haven't gotten like, okay, well, maybe it's because I became a mom later and my kids were older when they got here and it took us five years to get them. So I know, I'm thankful to have them right now. And I'll be fine when they spread their wings. I'm actually excited for them to have opportunity. That's why they came from Haiti to America. I feel as though that's what their birth moms want for them is they want to see them have a chance at something. So I guess that's probably why those didn't impact me that way, but I could see how those, that's causing some, some pressure. Yes. But I love me, you need to do one of those TikToks or do the video, the green screen,

where you get in front of one of those videos and you're like, hey, this is he got off here. This video right here, don't fall for it. It's a trap. It's a present pressure trap. I'm not on TikTok. I'm not that cool. Well, Instagram. But yes.

You can do it as a real. I know you're very active on Instagram. I mean, you have over 100,000 followers. Well, trying to have. help as much as I can't. I mean, that just shows, it's your credibility. That shows the people that are trusting what you're saying, and you deliver it in a digestible way. And that's why you have 13 bestselling books. And I know another thing that you touch on in addition to that we need to uncover our own anxiety and work through that is healthy ways to process it so we don't pass it on

with one or two examples of processing in a healthy way. Okay. two I would give. One is, I want every family to have a code word, just a word that means we're going to pause right here because they're in their survival brain, you're going to flip right into yours. I mean, parents say, they're like, to me, all the time in my office, they're like a crazy person and all of a sudden I was too. And so if you have a code word that is watermelon or whatever it is, that means when anybody in our family says that, we're going to pause. We're going to stop and we're going to separate, even if that means we can't talk it out right now. Like you said, we're not going to get to a healthy conversation when we're operating out of our

Magdalas. So watermelon, I'm going to go back to my space. Think about who I want to be in this moment. And while I'm doing that, I'm going to take some deep breaths and whatever I need to do, whether it's square breathing. That's one of my favorite ways. I love breath prayers where we're breathing in a statement and breathing out a different one that reminds us of truth in that moment, even of who we want to be.

And then. I am a good mother. Yes. I am capable of handling. this situation with peace. That's beautiful. Beautiful. Or maybe I have, I just haven't yet learned how to handle this particular situation. Exhale, but I am capable of doing it and we're pausing until I figure it out. Yes. Something like breathing in. Sissy and Amy say, I'm a good mom. Okay. Yeah. I mean, just simple. And then square breathing is four, four, four, four. Yep, exactly. Or a five,

Yes, because when we do that, the blood vessels in our brain dilate and it shifts the blood flow away from the amygdala that's the survival part and back to the prefrontal cortex that helps us think rationally and manage our emotions. So when we're all in the survival brain, no one's brain that thinks rationally is even working. It's offline. And so we can't get to a helpful place until we can calm our bodies back down. So code word, pause, come back. Do you think it's more fun to have a code word like you said that's like watermelon or just can we just say pause? or is there something cool about it's more unity routine, we have this code word. Yes.

Your kids are in on coming up with what it is. Maybe it's even a funny thing. Yeah. I mean, you can definitely say pause, but. No, no. I'm definitely going to adopt this because at our house, we just say, hey, I need some space. And my kids are now good at expressing that.

My son did it just the other day. He said, I just can't, I can't talk right now. I need space. And I was very proud of him. So, of course, I acknowledge that. That's very awesome. You were able to identify you needed that space. Space granted.

And, you know, I walk away. But it would be way more fun to have. Fun word you all come up with. Yeah. Spondgebob. Yeah. Spondgebob square pants. Yes. I think one of the biggest traps for parents with anxiety is anxiety feels like good parenting.

And so I've got to be vigilant because you do as a parent, but we cross over into hypervigilance too much. I always talk about it with. kids like the one loop roller coaster at the fair. Anxious thoughts just circle around and around and around. That's how we know what they're anxious thoughts. So we want to start with calming our bodies down and then move to our thoughts because our thoughts are where we get in trouble. You remember the stop, drop, roll thing?

A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me, Clever 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.

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. If you are a founder or a freelancer or the friend who always says, hey, you know what, if I started that, this is for you? I'm telling you I had nothing to my name.

I didn't know a single person in New York. And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurent walking down that red carpet. This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it, who turned the scary leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of. Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not we're taking action on the things that matter to us. They're not selfish.

They're so important. They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled, we actually show up better everywhere. We lead better. We're better friends. We're better relationships and collaborators and all the things. things because we have passion about the things we're doing. If you're trying to build something of your own this year,

join us in these conversations that will make you braver and smarter with your money. Listen to Dos Amigos as part of the My Cultura Podcast Network available on the I-HeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money. It's Financial Literacy Month, and the podcast Eating While Broke is bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future. This month, hear from top streamer, Zoe Spencer, and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum Pierre,

as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up. If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures, it's like, what? Today now, obviously, it's like 100%. They believe everything. But at first, it was just like, you got to go get a real job. There's an economic component to community striving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurs,

nourishhip happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by fell is they don't have money to pay for food. They cannot feed their kids. They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them. Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network 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 our 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. 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. It was very nice to get those new 56-degree wedges in the mail. the other day.

And so I decided, you know what? I'm going to go to the chipping green at the local muni. Try it out. I roll up to the local muny. Chipping green closed. Ours? Yes. No less. So I'm like, okay, guess I'm here.

Might as well play some golf. So I walk into the clubhouse and let me tell you, they got new signs up at the local muny. Beautiful new signs. Advertising and shit. No, no. Just telling you, oh, this is the front nine. This is the back, you know, just beautiful. It probably was confusing for out-of-towners before.

Very much so. So they upgraded. I was like, all right, cool. And I was walking in. I said, hey, man, I would like to play 18 holes. They said, oh, yeah, you can go over there. There's two guys teeing off right now if you want to jump in with them. And don't forget about the 19th hole. I said, no problem. So I walk up to the tee box.

There's two guys about to tee off. And I stand there. They look at me and I'm like, hey, how's it going? They turn back. They tee off and they take off walking. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. So you're saying you don't want me to play with you guys? Cool.

So I stand there and this guy walks up. He's like, hey, you want to play together? No problem, dude. And he's like, what's your name? Gibbles? What's your name? Reggie? All right, Reggie, let's play some golf.

He goes, I'm new to golf, but I've got the itch, man. I just got my. clubs downsides because I bought them. They were a little too tall. And I was hitting them too far. I was hitting them way too far. Shut up. And I'm like, here we go. We got this again, right? We got the, I hit it too far. I had to get smaller clubs. Like, I was cool. He was just letting me know that he hits it a long ways and he just started golf. So I'm like, all right, Reggie, let's see what it's all about. He steps up and whack. He whacked his shit out of it. He whacked. He whacked the shit out of it. he whacked it

was it uh par three or par four par four yeah and he hit it pretty far so he could hit the ball far I noticed as we played I was like dang he was like yeah I think it was uh I played tennis growing up

so I think my tennis swing really helps with the golf swing what is he and erotic I said okay that's pretty cool um then it got weird because because we're walking

We're both walking. And whoa, no cart? No cart, man. It was like 80 degrees, a little breeze. It was a great day. Yeah, me and Boomer, we always go cart. I know. And we're walking between the second and third hole.

And he says, so what's your favorite movie of all time? Oh, God. One of these guys, no personality. And I said, oh, you know, whatever. I don't know. I braveheart. No, please tell me we're not having this conversation. He tells me, oh man, my favorite one is, what did he say?

He said, Step Brothers. I would hope you don't remember. Step Brothers was his favorite movie of all times. He's like, oh, that's cool, you know. T off on number four. Hey, that's my blanket. Hey, that's my bunk bed. Step Brothers.

Don't play my drums. Don't play my drums. Great movie. Great, fantastic movie. Did you hit him with a quote? No, I didn't hit him with a quote. I was just like, all right, cool. And then he's like, man, where's the best vacation you've gone on in your life?

Oh, no. What is this an interview? I think it might have been a dating interview because I'm starting to think this dude's like trying to get to know me, get to know me. Oh, so is Red J? I don't know, but he's asking these questions. I'm like, huh. And I mean, these questions continue through the nine. What do you mean do I have a pauper?

Are there any dreams you haven't accomplished yet? No. Yes. I would have refused to answer that one next question. He asked me if there's any dreams I haven't accomplished yet. You should have told him I'm just here so I don't get fined. And he was excited about taking up golf because it's keeping him out of the bars. He's been going to the bar too much.

So this is better. Recovering alcoholic. It's what it kind of sounded. And he asked me so like. Well, good thing I was there with my Mickey's. That's not going to help with his problem. No. It wouldn't help.

He's riddled with an addiction. But he was ripping the cancer sticks. Vaping, no less. No, cancer sticks. Oh. And he asked me, do you think your life is a success so far? Like, what in the... Oh, man.

Dude, this is not a relaxing day on the golf course. And I'm like, this dude, I don't know. He might be hitting on me. He might not be, but he is trying to get to know me way too well. But what did you answer? Well, I just was like, I guess it's going pretty well, man. Then we're walking to number nine. We're walking to the T-box at 9, and he asked me,

so do you ever go to Broadway? He goes, it's just crazy down there. I don't really like Broadway anymore. Never heard of it. And I said, man, I got three kids. I don't really have time to go to Broadway. Damn right. And I think that turned him off because after 9, he goes,

I'm going to head into the clubhouse, man, I'm done. Oh, so that was it. We're only halfway through the podcast interview. And I was like, oh, okay, interesting. So was he getting to know me? And once I mentioned my kids, he was like, oh, I think I may play another nine, but I'm going to wait for my buddy.

Oh, you think that's what stopped it. I think that's what stopped it because it was on number nine that I said, oh, I have three kids, man. I'm just too busy to go to Broadway. And that was it. So then I go to the back nine, and this guy pulls up in the cart. Reg J?

No, not Red J. This was Henry. Derek? Not Derek. Hunter? Nice guy. Very quiet. He drove his cart. Fine. Did you guys cart together? No, I walked.

Oh, because sometimes they make you double up in a cart. That's where I draw the line. I bought the cart. He's not getting in my cart. I don't know him. I don't want to spend the next four hours with him because I don't know him. I rented the cart. I get it, Marshall. Back off. But Reg J, me and him, we got to know each other. even without the cart. So, I mean, didn't matter

if we're in a cart, no cart. That's when you almost want to purposefully duck hook it. So this guy, Henry was quiet, didn't say much.

Perfect. But then we get to a par three. I tee off. He tees off. He grabs my crank. I walk all the way up to the green. I look back.

He's still on the tee box. Well, didn't you wait for him to hit? Yeah. He'd already hit. His ball's up on the green. Start walking, boy. He's drives.

Drive it. Drive. I don't give a damn. He is walking all over that T-box. I chip on, putted in for a bogey, two-putt. For a bogey. Unnecessary for the story. And I look back and he's still on the T-box.

And I'm like, what is this dude doing? Here we go. Welcome to the local muni. And I mean, it's been six, seven minutes since we've teed off because I've walked all the way down, chipped on, two-putted. You know what I mean? Like, I've done it all. I already know. The last guy was an alcoholic, this one's a pillhead. No. He drives up and he goes, man, I don't know where my tea went. I was looking. I couldn't find it.

Go on this thing called golf galaxy.com and order more. Or dicks. He spent a total of 11 minutes looking for his tea that cost three cents. I hope there was nobody behind you guys. Nobody behind us, but I hit, walked in my ball, and he comes driving. I'm up. Man, I just couldn't find it. I guess that's a goner.

Well, I'd like to have him and Nam. He'll never leave a man down. Oh, shit. It's Caroline Hobby. I am so excited about this week's episode of Get Real podcast with Tierra Kennedy. She has always been destined for greatness. She was born to be seen. She's practically the next Beyonce.

She's known she wanted to be a singer since she was little. We talk about all the sacrifices her parents made to help her achieve her dreams. Her whole family moved to Nashville from Alabama. She started singing when she was nine years old to only her parents in the crowd. And look where she is now on the grand old Opry stage, chasing her dreams, opening up for people that she always loved. Tierra is truly an American dream story come true. And this episode is so great. Check it out.

You're just a bright light. Everyone has their own gifts and everyone has their own unique, special, wonderful things that they're supposed to share with the world. But like, you're supposed to be seen by the world. Thanks. I mean, I try, I try to be happy on a daily basis. How do you manage that? I try to be happy on a daily basis too. Sometimes I really fail.

I liked that you put a crying video up one time and you're like, if you're having a crappy day. That honestly, that was so hard for me to do because I was literally having like, you're in the middle of the cry. Yeah. Yeah. And you know, I hate those videos where like you see people crying and it's like, okay, did you set up a camera and like film yourself crying? But I just like, I never have vulnerable moments like that because I just, I just, like,

try to be happy. I've tried to, you know, show people the good in the world, but I do have bad days. And my husband sees those bad days every day. And I just wanted to share that because I loved it, you know? I loved it. I feel like that's sort of become my mission is to show what's good and well in the world. Yeah. But also like overcoming and how to overcome. And like when you hit that moment, how do you overcome? So I sort of like to start with like origin story. Yeah. Like tell me about how you grew up. What was really great about growing up? What did you have to overcome? And then when did you hit that moment where you're like, oh my God, I am going to be a world famous singer? Yeah. Oh my gosh. How did it all happen in your childhood? So I'm originally from Birmingham, Alabama. And you have a song,

Alabama Nights. Alabama Nights. Such a jam. Thanks. I like, were you dancing with your parents to? Yes. Yes. I'm like, I would be friends with your parents. They're so fun. They actually, they like, kind of used to be like mom or drew dadager at the beginning. So you really are like Beyonce style here. Yeah. I mean, listen, I'm the next Beyonce. You are. I, um, yeah, they like, they were very involved in like my music and my career. And now they just get to enjoy like the music. And, you know, they let me do do my thing. And, um, they just get to have fun with it. So that's, that's really cool. And I love having them be a part. And I mean, they have been so supportive of my career from the very beginning like tell me about that when i told him i wanted to do music and be a music they put me in

voice lessons guitar lessons and their kind of philosophy was like we're going to let you try what you want to try so i you know i did dancing i did i took acting classes and it just didn't work for me and then i fell on singing and they were like full on support me you know in any way they can. And so I started like performing around my hometown. And I would do like festivals and I'd play at restaurants literally anywhere I could. And I mean, some of them were so boring. Like I was doing like an hour set, two hour set and just playing covers. And I remember like being on the Buffalo Wild Wings patio. Nice. Singing a set. And like nobody was out there except for my parents, you know. And like that happened a lot and they've just they've always been there from the very beginning how what a blessing such

what are their names natasha and howell i was about to say mom dad that that's their name to me natasha and howell yeah they're squishes they're squishes yes oh you just squish into them you have deep hugs yes i love them i love them so much um and like even more so now that you know i'm older i feel like when you get older yes what they how much they love you exactly and i'm going to start crying like family love it's just so special i know i know and you know i know a lot of people don't have that like my parents moved to nashville for me like really packed up moved to nashville seven years ago and i i mean a lot of parents wouldn't do that you know and you have a i know you at least have one more sister i have two younger sisters and an older sister and my two younger sisters moved here

with y'all yeah so or were they on the on the train or were they kind of like what and the heck why are we moving to Nashville, Tierra's dream. Yeah, it was a little, it was a mixture of both. Like, I think we're from Birmingham

and I love Birmingham, but like at the time, it was a little boring, you know? We were running out of things to do. So I think they were excited for a change of scenery, but also it was like

they had friends, you know? But they love it now. They do, yeah. A win is a win. A win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me. Cliver Taylor the 4th.

I'm telling you I had nothing to my name. I didn't know a single person in New York. And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurenta walking down that red carpet. This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it, who turned the scary leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of. Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not we're taking action on the things that matter to us. They're not selfish. They're so important. They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled, we actually show up better everywhere.

We lead better. We're better friends. We're better relationships and collaborators and all those things because we have passion about the things we're doing. If you're trying to build something of your own this year, join us in these conversations that will make you braver and smarter with your money. Listen to Dos Amigos as part of the My Cultura podcast network available on the I-HeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcast. I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money. It's Financial Literacy Month, and the podcast, Eating While Broke, is bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future.

This month, hear from top streamer Zoe Spencer and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre, as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up. If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures, It's like, what? Today now, obviously, it's like 100%. They believe everything, but at first it was just like, you got to go get a real job. There's an economic component to community striving.

If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by fail is they don't have money to pay for food. They cannot feed their kids. They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them.

Hey, it's Mike D for Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. This is a clip from my latest episode where I shared 10 of my core movie memory moments and explained exactly what that is. If you want to hear this full list, get a full deep dive into my brain when it comes into movies in my life. Check out this entire episode. But right now, here's just a clip of Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. A core memory is a specific memory that holds some kind of emotional value in your life.

They are the building blocks of what make you a person. I feel like as a human being, I can trace back several things to very specific times in my life. And these little moments that have, whether it've been traumatic or been joyful, have shaped the person I am today. And I'm going to take not my human life, but my cinematic life and share with you the top 10 core movie memory moments that have changed or altered my well-being or my mental state or just moments that. I have not forgotten and have stuck with me in film throughout my entire movie watching life. I think even for me, sometimes it is easier for me to speak about my feelings when I can relate them to a movie. Sometimes I just feel like it's hard for me to open up about emotions or to express exactly how I'm feeling. But if you throw a movie in front of me and something emotional happens,

I'm able to open up so much more by relating to that character and speaking about the film and speaking about their development that I, in turn, am able to look into myself and think, oh, I relate with that because of something I experience. I think that is why I love movies so much. And I think at the core of this, that is why I do this podcast, because if I didn't have movies, I probably wouldn't or be able to work out all of these things inside my brain. And I think where I got the concept for this episode was from the Pixar movie Inside out, which the entire movie revolves around core memories and what they are trying to do for Riley

in order for her to have the best childhood ever and look back on it with only these bright, colorful memories. And the entire plot of that movie is, well, not everything can be super bright and positive and joyful that sometimes you have to experience the sadness because it's all those experiences that really shape you as a person. So I think my list will reflect that. If you haven't seen Inside Out, here is just a little clip from that movie. explaining the core memory process.

These are Riley's memories, and they're mostly happy you'll notice, not to brag. But the really important ones are over a year. I don't want to get too technical, but these are called core memories. Each one came from a super important time in Riley's life. Like when she first scored a goal? That was so amazing. So that is what I have for you. So I'm going to do these starting back in my childhood and working up to my adult life.

So let's kick it off with number one. My first core movie memory moment was from 1994, and it was Mufasa dying. I've been listening back to that scene now as an adult. It still very much hits me on an emotional level, and Disney did us all dirty with this movie, but I felt it served a very specific purpose to teach kids about death, essentially the worst thing that could happen to you as a kid, losing your father like this in such a tragic way. But this was the first time I learned about death. So to be a kid, four, five years old learning about death through a Disney movie is pretty intense.

So that is my first movie core memory. At number two, from 1997, leave it to beaver. And maybe I'm the only kid who was excited about a Leave It to Beaver movie. But there was a time in my life where I got really into 40s, 50s, and 60s television. And Leave It to Beaver was one of my favorite shows, mainly. because everything in that show was so perfect. They had the perfect house, the perfect life, the perfect family. And I thought to myself, what would it be like to have a life like that?

And then in the 90s, it got the movie treatment, which was a lot different than the original show. But there was just something so wholesome still about this movie that I loved. And I feel like this is a movie from the 90s. That was one of my favorites, but really isn't regarded as a great movie from the 90s. But it came out in 1997. The core memory moment for me, from this movie was the scene where Beaver gets his bike stolen by the bully. And he had this amazing bike that he got for his birthday.

It was a red GT with the pegs and the tires. It was a beautiful bicycle. And growing up, I wanted a GT bike just like this. I think that was the height of this type of bike. They were so cool. And I just thought that if I had it, I would be the coolest kid in the trailer park. I was also a chunky kid. so I couldn't run very fast, but I thought if I had a GT bike that was so light and so quick

that I could suddenly be the fastest kid in the trailer park, even though I couldn't run, I could maybe out-bike somebody. So I think it was the appeal of the bike, but also the story in this movie, A Beaver kind of being an outcast kid, the smallest kid, not being good at football, him lying to his parents. But the ultimate moment is this bike he's been dreaming of. wanting for his entire life, even though he hasn't been around that long, he finally gets it. Let's a bully do some tricks, and then the bully's last trick is to steal the bike.

And I remember watching this moment on the big screen. It was like the first movie I ever went to see in theaters. And I think it was because of that, but also the fact that he had his bike stolen, I will never forget this moment. And like I said, maybe I'm the only person who cared about Leave It to Beaver. from 1997. And maybe that's true because I couldn't even find a legit clip of this moment. It was just somebody recording their TV. But here is that moment from Leave It to Beaver.

I got a few more tricks. Really? Cool. Can you show me? I got one you'll never forget. And then the entire movie is him trying to get his bike back. The other memory I associate with Leave It to Beaver from 97 was, like I said, it was the first movie I remember going to see in theaters at the Buffalo Creek.

six in Waxahachie, Texas. And this was back at a time where you had to call to hear the movie times. It was either this or the super old school way of looking it up in the newspaper. But I remember I would just call the movie theater. I still remember the number. It is 972. 9. I'm not going to say the whole number because probably somebody else has it at this point because now that theater is gone. But you'd call the number. It would be the movie theater manager in this case who would record a new message every single week. And there was just something special to me about hearing the new movie out, the one that came out that Friday that everybody wanted to see that I'd been seeing on TV. And even though I didn't go to the movies a whole lot

as a kid because we couldn't afford it, I would still call it every single week to hear what was playing. But the core movie memory here is leave it to Beaver getting his bike stolen. And that was this week's Sunday sampler. New episodes out weekly. The Bobbycast comes out on Tuesdays, Four Things with Amy Brown comes out on Thursdays.
