Episode 38 - Bobby Answers Listeners Questions About the Show (2-22-17)

00:00:03
Speaker 1: Oh, I'll come to remember, can we just already welcome you up? So thirty eight? Although I do challenge that up. Uh, it's Bobby, thanks for hanging. We're gonna do a Q and A here. I get on Facebook and I said, hey, what are your questions because I'll answer them. So we're gonna spend a little bit of time just answers the questions, maybe stuff that you've also wondered about the show, or about me, or about anybody, and why answers maybe as we possibly can. I have not seen the questions. Might he pulled them off Facebook? And so we'll just kind of go from there. I do. I could say I didn't get a fight last night because I try not to fight on the internet anymore, because nobody's a real winner there when you fight on the internet. Both people did it looks stupid And I was on there's a picture of me with this new gold microphone that we have, and this microphone is not to look like RuSHA Lumball or Elvis Duran or many of the other people who have got Ryan think Ryan Seacrest is a gold mine. Yeah, all I knew Rush Lamba, did I know the other guys did but it was just because we needed a new microphone and Mike bought a gold one for that reason. No, she looks cool, so and I told and we're trying to get the sound adjusted. And I was like, I keep the gold microphone because I like it. And so this woman was like, hey, you were talking about Landa del Rey and you know, f off, she made her own career and she's good. I never said Lanta del Ray wasn't good. I asked the question, if someone comes from a super wealthy family, and it doesn't matter what industry it's in, do we feel different about them making it as someone who had overcome different obstacles, who come from who comes from super poor family? For example, politicians most of them come from well the families because to be a politician you kind of have to have money, like you have to have money to run for politics, or you have to have no money to run. There's really not a middle ground in that. And the first thing the government of Arkansas asked me, it was like, hey, what what is your story? And I told him he knew some of it already, and he was like, it's a good story, you know, because it's the normal person story. And a lot of politicians don't have that because a lot of them grew up with wealthy families, not all but landed alreadys parents are multimillionaires. And I was like, man, I know so many artists friends that struggled to eat every week, and too they lose money when they do shows, and we feel different about them as we did. And my answer was yeah, I do um but as it was right. So I got to fight over that question. How do you feel about that? What is your answer on that question? I mean, I think after hearing a bunch of people talk about the grind and the process of like, you know, it's whether this is gonna happen or not, and them having nothing to fall back on, it definitely kind of takes a lot away when somebody's just like, well, I kids just go to dad money and I'll be good, and not that she's not talented. And also, to be fair, Mike and I both come from very humble upbringings, so we probably leaned to the side of we root for the poor people because we grew up poor. Like really, we're both people who are like, yeah, we go with the poor because we grew up poor exactly. But I said on the radio show this morning, my kids are gonna have a different than me, because you know, I've been working hard and i have a really good job now and I'm not hurting. I'm not having a struggle, and it's gonna be weird for me because I would love for if I end up having kids someday, for them to have to learn some of the skills of survival that I did. But then again, you know, one of my friends of Dean Sanders, and he grew up and he's been a bad part of town, right, and he was like, you know, it's tough because now he's Dean Sanders, who are with multimillions of dollars and he has kids, and it's hard to teach them the same thing that you were taught because they just know what they see around them. And so that that was a conversation on social media also that anything that happened today, Eddie was ed he was late to work and so he was so late and the show had already started. That the rule has always been and I forgot that I wrote about it in my book. That's how long ago that this rule has been a place forever for years, since you've been with the show, it's for sure been a place, but for years the rule has been, if you're this late and we have a time set, if you're this late it's like thirty minutes before the show starts, just don't worry about coming in. Like if you can't make it in time, you just don't make it. So most people on the show get their ten fifteen minutes before that. They don't push it. Eddie pushes it a lot of times, like right to the minute. And so for me, if my time was, hey, you need to be sent about seven pm every night or you're gonna get in trouble, my new time in my head would be six pm. That would be the time I put in my head. But everyone reacts differently, And it's funny to watch the people that are on both sides because they're passionate on both sides, holy cow. And there are two types of people. People that time and respect the priority and people that it's not. They don't see being late as disrespectful to someone. For me, I'm not gonna be late anywhere if I can absolutely help it, I'm gonna be early. I'm obnoxiously early. I'm the person that gets there. It just sits in my car fifteen minutes because I'm so early that it's just weird that if I go in right now, I'm gonna be annoying to that person because they've got to just deal with me just sitting there waiting on them. So I sit in my car a lot of places. But again that's me having respect for their time. Now some people may feel not feel like that's a respect thing for me. I do. I think also, being late in life eliminates possibilities. It doesn't create them when you're on time, but it does eliminate them when you're not. If you show up on time, you're supposed to show up on time, pin a rose on your nose, you're here when asked and then but if you show up late, it will penalize you some of the time, maybe not all the time, but why cut yourself out of some opportunities. So we had artists come by today for a world premiere that we were taping for a few weeks away, and a big artist and he was here fifteen minutes early, and I was like, this, this is why these guys are successful. Uh of success, And it's just showing up and showing up on time. I didn't say that. I think, like what the Allen's did that, But he also didn't really creepy stuff too, so uh, there was that. That was a big thing on Facebook and Twitter and Instagram today. But that's the rule. And I'm also a person where if you go get into an establishment and you know the rules, the rules are the rules. You don't have to like the rules. But if you decided to get in and you get in knowing those are the rules, those are the rules. So it's like school dress codes and like, well this kid get kicked out because his hair was pink, and everyone's like, not free speech. I'm like, well, lot's look at the school handbook before we start yelling free speech, Like did he already know that was the rule before he got and yes, it's in there. Okay, they didn't create this rule and kick him out because he get had pink hair. He knew he couldn't do it. And whether you agree with it or not one thing, But it wasn't already a stated rule. Yes it was, so you can't do it. Even if you love pink hair, you can't do it. So it's already been stated, like you have to get there that time, for our show and if you don't, you go home, and that's it. And then it's difficult on everybody else because we had to tape stuff. We had to call in someone to be a backup quarter. Like video. We had a whole crew in shooting TV spots for me today because we're shooting this whole new campaign for television across the country. And it doesn't matter I'm gonna get robbed up. But times definitely um a thing for me because I can control it. Uh, we have Facebook question. Let's do a couple of them first, go ahead, Mike, all right, a lot of people asking about there we go your political stuff, go and talk about yesterday. So the first one, what party affiliation will you run for? None? Right now? I actually it was they got my meeting with the governor. He asked that because I am an independent, because I have things on both sides and I'm completely on one or the other, and so I don't feel like I have to declare anything right now. And I don't hate either side. I don't see someone from either side and go there that So as of right now, I don't I think I can run both parties. I'd be moderate on both sides. If I ran as Republican, I'd be a really moderate Republican. For ads Democrat, you a really moderate Democrat because I'm not super conservative and I'm definitely not super liberal. I have different social views that are considered liberal and some of ric social So do I think people that are gays you only get married? Yep? Do I think we should have be able to have guns? Yep? Do I think we should all have bulletproof vests? No, I mean it's just all of and those that's just two examples of a little But no, I don't have and and I talked to the governor by that, and I think I could just find, like, honest to goodness, I think I could just find where the weak spot is and slide into that party. I don't love the parties. I hate to wear two party system like it's either A or B. I don't like that. But so, no, there is no party there. When you run for governor, will you continue to do the show whti you are elected? Uh? There's an official rule about when you do declare that you can't. So as of right now, nothing is happening. I'm just gonna say that, and this will be the last governor question that I'll answer on this because I know people don't want to hear about that the whole time. But if it becomes a thing where I have to guide in campaign, I think I have to get off the radio. But as of right now, none of that's happened. I think March fourteenth is the date that I've set to declare what's going to happen. And I have a couple meetings I need to have with a couple of people that are volunteer at their time and have been educating me and working with me. And what people do. They try to get in political campaigns early, so if you do make it, they've been with you the whole time and they get high spots. And so I have some people that have working with me and they've been great, and so if if it's in two years or six years or ten years, who knows. But although people on Facebook were just all over me about my clothes, I didn't wear a jacket and I when I went to the Governor's house and I felt a little dumb, but I was okay. And my shirt was probably a little too big, and people like, where at least for I fitted shirt? Where do you people think I have John Jr. Pejanio come to my house and fit me for shirts, Like I bought that shirt at probably a Nordstrom and then I lost weight and I don't have someone tailor shirts for me, and so the shirt was just a little big, and so people were giving me a hard time about that. And then the other one was they were talking about Lindsay's dress. They were like, who would wear spaghetti straps? And I'm just like you people on Facebook was looking for They're just looking for reasons to be angry. They're looking for reasons to fulfill something sad or angry in their own life and put it on the Internet. That's why I stay off there. And I wenter there today for like five minutes and I got into like two fights immediately. I just walked right in, don't don't get punched in the face, do a couple of hay makers, and walked out and didn't even look back in the room. And I was just like, why why get on and just be negative? I just would be nothing. I would get on and be like this irritates me x and then excess screen and then go to some funny gift of a flower pooping or something I don't. I don't understand why people are so negative on face but that's why I don't really look at the page that much. And then when I do, I always tag it with b B because I don't read a lot of them Twitter, Instagram all the time. Facebook, I just can't. It's uh, it's not It's not a good environment for me to be and it puts me in a bad headspace. And I feel like everybody hates me after I read Facebook, so I can't be there because I leave that place going. Man, everybody hates me. How do I even do a radio show? Are people even listening? Because everybody hates me? And it affects my mental well being because I feel I am the worst, most disgusting thing to ever be on a public airwave and so I can't read that stuff. I don't listen to the last thing. I need to have my backpad all the time because that doesn't happen everywhere else either. May people call me out And the only time I'll band somebody or block somebody's if they say they a word or they you know, if it's people need to see that if it's public. But yeah, that made me feel good. Um, And it's so weird people to do that when it's like connected to their profile and it's yeah, like you can just link back and I can see where you work, and I see all this stuff about you, and you're saying this horrible, horrible, Like I see your niece nephews and their play dates right now, and I know what church you go to. Yeah, you're still calling me a mother. Yeah that's weird. I let me talking about bed for a second. I have a sleep number bed and I love it. And this studio here is connected to my bedroom and so my bed's probably ten feet away. And the good thing about the sleep number is that when you lay, it's like you're laying for you because when you go into a store, you know they matched the contours like your back, and you get your own sleep number. And if you have a bed and you and your partner, your wife, husband, boyfriend, girlfriend, I don't know who you late with, actually I don't care. By yourself, they can have their own sleep number two and you have your both sides a different one. That's what's awesome about it. Sleep numbers and ranked highest to customer satisfaction of the mattresses. So that's one of those JD power things. My sleep Number setting is a thirty and my I Q last night on and check it. Should have checked it. I didn't check it. Uh. The Sleep Number store is awesome. Right now save it on limited edition bed during the Ultimate Sleep Number event. Queen's t two mattresses start at five five hundred sleep stores nationwide. Call eight hundred next bed, find one near you and you can tell them I sent you. A had a listener one start to tell him that I actually referred to them and in a semi cash and they wouldn't do it. And I thought that was hilarious for the listener to do that. But I do have a sleep number and I do love it. And thank you to Sleep Number for always sponsoring the podcast. Um, alright, Mike, onto some more questions. All right? One day we actually get a lot of calls about somebody asked or the Funny and Alone Show's appropriate for children? First of all, stand up comedy spoken word. I don't think I would take kids too, just generally because kids aren't gonna like one person standing on stage talking. Is it appropriate? I don't say any curse words. I don't talk. I mean, you've been to many of them. The kids come, well, it's not inappropriate, like the content and anything. I would almost say that it's somewhat, for lack of a better reference, SpongeBob or Shrek humor where there is some adult humor there, but it's kind of masked a bit. So no, I would say you can it's already PG. Thirteen. Probably would that be fair, But I just don't think kids like a stand up comedy ship and then when to come great, they're they're not gonna leave knowing new words they shouldn't have known beforehand. The worst word I might say is tampon, and I don't really get into that, but that's probably the worst word that I say, cause I don't cur that's not a bad word that says on the grocery walk on the grocery stores has tampon. So um. Yeah, we actually had a meeting today about the comedy, specially again as we're getting that thing ready. But yeah, it's not bad for it, But I just don't know any kids that would like to go to a set up comedy show. What else you got? Have you ever considered starting your own record label? Can't because it's against it's conflict of interest right now for what I do inside of my contract, would love to I don't have the money for it. I mean that's you have to pay for promotion teams and pay salaries and there's a lot too. Instead of just going this music is good, let me put it out. Um, I think that would be fun. I think I'd like to get into management, manage artists before I like to do record and I think it actually I will do that. I can't this contract that I'm in now. Um, but I just love music. So that question is cool because that means that they think I have decent ears and eyeballs and so thank you for that. But no, I I can't and I don't know that I would want to have right now. I've got other things going on that I'm really passionate about. So and I got a second book that we're close to finish, you know, closing on. I don't even started really writing it yet. But um, I just don't have time for that. Yeah, but it would be cool. What's cool for me to see sometimes if people will tweet you like all the recent songs they like, listen to or downloaded, and it's all like this music you'd like to recommended. Yeah. No, that's the biggest compliment ever, because again, I can't make anybody download anything. I can't many people like anything. But sometimes I hear things and I'm just like, man, that's really good and different. You can call on Like this Devin Dawson song all on Me when you're mad, you can dig it out on me was my head hit of the microphone. Sorry, winget me make it to get time on knees, come at me when it gets heavy, to do well on me, maybe put it all like that's the jam, And I was like, that's a jam. I like that, and I think I still have a normal person here for the most part. So thank you for that question. What else you get? What goes into the process of creating a segment? Why can't I hear you? Dude, doesn't hear me? Now creating a segment? With the process of creating a segment. Here's the thing about our show is nobody accept me emails. What's gonna be asked? We talked about on the show. Ray will have the best idea because I'll have to send him an email of sound clips that I needed. He can go, okay, I'll be on these clips its probably gonna do this, but otherwise nobody sees anything, which I'm probably gonna have to start putting Morgan in on a bit. But so what I do is before I go to bed at night, for probably between sixty and ninety minutes, A read news stories. I check a page where everybody from the show and they find an interesting new story, they'll put it up and say, hey, this is funny. Um. I go through my day what I want to talk about, go through the news, and then I wake up with the morning and I do it again for another hour hour a half so and then I just kind of put them in the middle. And usually we're trying to put the strongest segments in between that six am and eight am spot because that's when the most listeners are there, and so we're trying to make it all good. But you just can't all make everything equal all the time. UM, So we try to put what I think is going to be the best in the middle list where the middlest where the most people listening in the show. And so I have an idea and I'm like, okay, we're gonna talk about lunch boxes. Well, wife leaving a note on the dishwasher and lunch box is already told that to me, but nobody else on the show knows about it. So I bring it up. We talked about it, and I have no idea where it's gonna go. I don't know what's gonna end. I don't know it's getting funny, don't know it's getting terrible in the tears. And that's the good part and the bad part about our show is when it works because we're not scripted or rehearsed, or no one's telling anyone to say anything, no one's it works wonderfully. When it doesn't, it crashes and burns, But it's a real life, organic crash and burn because it's just us talking about whatever the subject is. So that's what goes into a not too terribly much as far as preparation, because the show doesn't know. I just try to pick where things go and how much time we have a certain time to talk. You know, we may have three and a half minutes here, in seven minutes here, in a minute and a half here, and I don't want to stick something that's really strong that we could probably talk about for a long time, and in a one and a half minute spot so that would be the answer to that. Probably how many Carlos questions? Usually when you did the questions, everyboy wants to ask about Carlos. And the thing is, most of the show people listen, I don't know Carlos or Jill or any of the people were that were instrumental in the early years of the show. Um, are there Carlos questions? Yeah, one person did ask about them? What they ask? Do they want to know why? I've explained this many times And if they don't want to know why, that's fine. And before we moved to Nashville, we were on Austin, but far I was on in Austin, I was on in Arkansas, but in Austin we were on for a man twelve years or so, and so we had a lot of friends coming oh off the show, and some would leave because they were like Joe when my old first co host got marriedated and had kids and moved down to the valley and was like, this has been awesome, but radio is really not what I wanted to do ever, but this has been awesome. So she moved off. Um never got fired, Carlos never got fired, and Carlos actually did Mike D's job. This is the whole world is so funny how this works. So we leave and just this is a quick um story. Carlos was a producer of the show for years, and we had to have somebody stay back in Austin as we went to Nashville and run the show from Austin because I was gonna be coming back and forth a lot and still working out of Austin and I needed someone there as well. And Ray had been working for free for a year and been crushing it. We only had so many spots, and I had to make the decision like who gets to go and who gets to come? And Ray was just dominating. And Ray had over the course of time out worked Carlos, but Carlos still was really good. And so Carlos stayed back and ran our show in Nashville, and Ray moved got his first radio job in Nashville. And there was a hard decision to make, and we knew the boss you have to make those decisions. But luck like nobody got fired from them, and so we moved people. And by the way, this is how racist people are. Okay. Eddie came onto the show in a position that had nothing to do with any position we've ever had, We'd never been able to pay for someone to do video. Had nothing to do with Carlos, but everyone was like, Okay, you gotta replace one Mexican with another, And I was like, what are you talking? Just because I replaced one Hispanic with another doesn't mean one filled my Hispanic quota on the show. That was the whole thing for a while too, But the jobs were completely different. I mean, Eddie is Eddie was working television as a video editor, and it's very good at being late, and so we go over and Ray comes in. His Ray was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Like still like that keeping that guy around and like illegally keeping him on the show was one of the best decisions I ever made. Early on, how do you feel about Ray Right? And as a worker? I mean he's I remember his first day. I was like, is this guy for real? But then I felt like how hard he worked and he I mean he takes it like a sport. I mean, is just a warrior. But like one of Amy's my best decision ever, and ray Right there is is is close for just a different reason altogether. And so we move and Carlos stays back and Mike D who produces this, and people ask what we call you, mke D, not just Mike. There are a lot of Mikes and might be just also what your name is. It also was like the Beasto Boys, Mike what I think a lot of if we just say, hey, Mike, I don't know. I mean, there's a there's a lot of Mikes. Yeah we don't we call lunchbox has a nickname. Yeah, well whatever, So we move with. Carlos stays back and then Carlos leaves and goes and you know he's like managing I don't know if that carloson while honestly um, but Mike D takes Carlos's job, and our thought was if things worked out well, Carlos would virtually move over, and Mighty too. Carlos job with the Mighty deaned up moving over whenever a spot opened up, so we were we kept waiting from to give us another spot to open, and when it did, it was always to bring up who we thought would be a great fit, and it would have probably been Carlos, but he wasn't there anymore. And you were, you were in that job and when I would go back and work in Austin. Mike d was always right there, like producing the show, making the show sound great in Austin. And I was like, Mike, we get a spot, dude, I know you've been doing this for a long time. Move and you just packed up your crap mood. Did you move and meet right away? Yeah? Did you? Yeah? A couple of months, yeah, I guess. So I was like, like, just good stuff moving to my house and just getting and start working. So there was that, and so yeah, it's good. And now we Mike and I hang out and we share food and we we Blue Apron. Blue Apron, by the way, I love. I gotta say this thing about Blue Apron is that it's for less than ten dollars per person per meal.

We're good. Five minutes, all right, give me uh, let's do some rapid fires, all right. A lot of people want to know about the whole I guess, or we can't put music on the podcast. I have no idea. It's licensing issues on iHeartRadio right now, and I've seen this go back and forth over the years. I have no idea what we can't put music a live performances on except the attorneys say it's licensing and we don't have the rights for it, so we can't put it out there. That's all I really know, and I'm just dumb, So I don't know. It stinks. But anything you don't find it's always up on YouTube. We stick it, but things on YouTube, which is the weird thing for the same reasons for license, and all of a sudden, now we can do so. I don't know. Will it come back, I don't know, probably eventually, and we won't be on YouTube. I don't I don't know what's happening. But it stinks that we can't put live performances on iHeartRadio right now. Um. I'm because I like to hear them too. But I don't really know the real answer because I don't ask, I just go by the rules. What else favorite breakfast food? I ate these really healthy breakfast tacos in the morning. It's only thing that I really eat, and it's onthing beating for months. I like the same thing over and over again. So basically it's just meat and it's just protein. Yeah, that's probably, man. I love waffles with a lot of whipped cream. I just don't eat that. I haven't had them forever. I love it. I love waffles with a lot of whipped cream and some syrup and and like chocolate chips. Probably that by the best one. Yeah. What else? Whatever happened to your old neighbor at the condo? No idea, I haven't been that. I still own that place, and I can't even I can't run it or sell it because it's the construction of the flood is still happening. Miked went over there a week and a half ago, and it still looks like it's like, like, guys, I'm paying money, and again I'm like, I'm a single guy with a good job, or I wouldn't be able to afford it, but I'm paying Like I have a mortgage there as well, and I'm still paying which really stinks. But people have worth problems, so I don't complain about it that much. Let me tell you this. That deodor that I was wearing swagger, this smells like b oh, someone sent me a note that goes, first of all, it's called swagger because it's never thirteen year olds. And then the pH balance of it is that and that's why it smells so strong. It's not meant for adult man. I did not know that. So my all, it's my swagger has meant for like twelve year olds. Apparently, Well you got here. What's your favorite thing about Arkansas? I mean it's home. I mean really, it's like, what's everything about growing up in your house on what road it is? You know, it may not be the best house in the whole neighborhood, but it's still home. It means the most to you. And so it's just it's just home, and it's small and you know every part of it, and it's like real people. It's like good people. I love Arkansas. And so here's the thing though, too. Let me put a wrinkle on this, this a little rink. Goal doesn't mean anything right now, but I do plan running for governor of Arkansas one day. If something happens and that that doesn't work out, in a couple of years, I can run for governor one in three states Texas, Arkansas or Tennessee so or senator so. Put that you probably smoke it because I've lived somewhere for seven years. Austin, check Arkansas. Check. If I signed out the contract here in radio Nashville, check. I just want to make a difference if it's on the radio or not on the radio or wherever else. Um. Yeah, I go ahead, by the way, shout out to people who were buying my book. I appreciate that so much. I thought the book sucked. I was talking to my UM manager today, who like make sure that I'm in the right place at the right time, like if I'm on the comedy show or raging idiots or writing a book or She's always like, are you got to be here? Here? Here? Here? And she was like, hey, uh, the book, you know did great in its first week of paperback, and you know we're on the way to doing a second book about something a little bit different. But um, thank you. I just since your thanks because she told me, she was like, when you send me this, when you first finished writing it. She goes, I kept the note where you said I think this book sucks because I told him that. I said, I don't think this book is good at all, Like, I don't think anybody's gonna buy it. Why would someone want to buy it? Who's interested? Who in the world would care about radio DJ? And I said all that other thing, I don't think you're gonna buy his book. And I felt like it's just not good. And I still don't think it's good. But a lot of people will come up to me and say, hey, I read this and it resonated, and so that matters to me. So I appreciate that. And whenever something and if I ever see out and you're like and you read the book, um, thank you. And always if there's something you always want to say and like hey I read this and like touch me in a certain way, like let me know because I really appreciate that stuff. Um, but yeah, thanks. I'm gonna go off too much there everybody today. I know we're gonna run over, but that's okay. Uh. One of the Facebook fights that happened was like, hey, you're just not the same anymore, and I just want to apply your right I'm not. In some ways, I think I'm a better person. In some ways, I think I have work to do in better In different ways, I would say we're I'm okay for lack of other terms. Some ways I'm better, some ways I'm worse. And I think we constantly go in those directions, like I struggle and I'm getting better at being emotionally vulnerable in human circumstances and and talking face to face with people not good at that. Um. I always I feel uncomfortable and people will compliment me. So what I do is, if I need to get a point across, I'll just say the compliment about myself real quick and move on. And people are like, oh, look at the humble brag and like, yeah, you're right. But you know what, I feel much more comfortable doing that myself than somebody else compliment. I don't like when people say nice things about me. It doesn't feel comfortable. So if I'm like, yeah, this happened, you know, we put record out was top five records from May is, thank you very much, people like, oh, look at the humble bag, you know what. Okay, But if somewhere to come in this gonna be like, hey, I saw you Can Raging Katy Tucker was the top five country record number one comedy record. I'll be like, oh, let's move on. I don't like that. So that does come off and rub people in a certain way. Um, and they're like, well, now that you have fancy friends, I don't have fancy friends. I really don't have fancy friends. And there's no there's nothing that's famous. Have I worked. You have to also understand that I focus all ninety I have a girlfriend now, so it's a little different. But she works a lot too, like I work twenty seven days straight or selling to take a day off, and that's kind of the thing. So if you work a lot and you love what you do, your rate of success is a little higher. And so I failed a lot, but I've also succeeded in some things, and so yes, things have changed that for me. Do I make a little more money, yep? Do I get to do some cooler things? Yep? Sometimes does it make me uncomfortable? I still feel like together doesn't fit in for sure, But yeah, I'm just not the same person. And when I do this podcast in a year, I won't be the same person. I won't be in people be like, oh, you're just not the same, you know, the same as you were when you're doing Knights and Little Rock when you were you know, the humblest I was like nineteen years old. I know what I was doing, that stupid um. But I'm just not the same. And I apologized when you get mad at me for doing stuff. But I just try to be as real as possible, even if it's not pleasant. And there you go. That's it. Anything else. Also, I do want to say this are camouflage Pimp and Joy shirts go up in a couple of weeks. We're working and and we give the details out quite yet. Mm hmm. Maybe I give out a bit probably my favorite so far what the Camo wins. Yeah, they're awesome. Um, here's what I can tell you is that it will be helping Air Force Captain Nathan Nelson. And we don't keep any of money from Pim and Joy shirts. And for those in case you thought that we don't. His camp I was set by a grenade on his third torn Afghanistan, I think, and he took a big part of the blast and so spinal injuries and collapsed lungs and a brain injury and now he has no movement blow his chest and his hands he has limited use to And this is a hero. And with these camouflage shirts, these pimp Enjoy shirts that are that'll be up in a couple of weeks. Our goal is ra stars for he needs special like special housing so he can get into out and be able to mobile. And so it's now I'm getting into the weeds here, but it's like concrete material, slabs, framing, roof truck trusses, roof shingles like this. This is the stuff he needs for the house. And what I think our listeners will do is this is how we're gonna do it. We're gonna everybody wants these shirts anyway because it's a great message, but we'd like to use it also for reasons. And I think we're gonna help Air Force captainate and nell them. Hasn't been announced on the air yet. We may kind of announce it tomorrow.

So yeah, we're gonna work with building homes for heroes and it's gonna be a thing. It's gonna be a great thing, and things like this wouldn't happen with that you guys that listen to the show or listen to the podcast, and you probably listen to the podcast if he didn't listen to the show or but but thank you anyway, thanks ahead of time, and that's kind of the deal on that.
