#446 - Bobby & Eddie on Voting on Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame + Alexandra Sedlak on Getting to Go To The Grammys + Going Viral on TikTok

00:00:06
Speaker 1: You know, we have the good witch trope the bad witch trope, and a lot of people are like, are you a good witch or bad witch? So I'm like, no, I'm a good witch because I'm good at what I do.

00:00:17
Speaker 2: Welcome to episode four to forty five of the Bobby Cast, where this may be the episode that gets me kicked out of the voting as a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Easy come, easy go, Grand opening, grand closing. I'm not sure if you're supposed to say who you voted for? Have you seen anything about that? I've never seen that me either. I just feel like you. I feel like there's a fifty one percent chance you probably shouldn't. But we're doing a whole podcast on and I think it brings light to even who the nominees are and who they are. I don't know. This may be it for me, but I'm a voting member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and this is what you do. You're always way too open with me. Yeah, So we go through the ballot, first year I've ever been invited. Eddie and I talked about each of the nominees and their legacy, and I don't know if I get kicked out, I'll let you guys know. I hope they don't. I hope they see this as something really cool, and together me, Eddie and kick Off Kevin kind of decide who we're going to vote in. Now they don't get in, but they get my vote, and there's not a whole lot of votes, so Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which is cool, and then we'll talk to I'm just gonna say this. Somebody that I found on TikTok. And it wasn't so much that she was an artist singing songs. I just thought she was so funny and what she was doing. But she's also an artist. Her name's Alexandra. You can find her links in our episode notes. But she's a storyteller. She's a self proclaimed good witch. And I couldn't tell she was kidding or not. Oh she's serious, I know. But she's so serious because when she does some of her stuff on TikTok, there are absolute fabrications, but she commits to them fully. That's why I wonder if she really feels like she's a witch. Well, now I'm taking guessing myself, I know, but I do want to believe that she thinks she's a witch. It's a really good episode. My last day as a voting member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Enjoy it. It's episode four forty here on the Bobbycast. Got this in the mill. This is what is it? Says? Official ballot enclosed. I'm now voting member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. What wait? Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait?

00:02:11
Speaker 3: So are these the nominations or this is like the nomination has already come to you and now you're going to vote for the.

00:02:17
Speaker 2: I've not opened the envelope. I don't know, but no, I got an email from someone at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame going would you like to be a voting member?

00:02:27
Speaker 1: What?

00:02:27
Speaker 2: And I said yes? And then they said we'll send you your ballot and I don't know what that means. But it's a big white envelope. Okay, okay, okay, and so so to do. We're going to vote right now for the who we're voting for. I hope that I don't get kicked out, like I don't think it's like a secretive thing, because I've heard like on Howard Stern for years, like Gary, their producer has been a voting member. They've talked about it and they didn't kick him out. But I'm also not Howard Stern. But also they have an envelope. It's been stamped and there's a number on the corner, which I guess is my number. I don't want see what that is. I don't say that. And then here is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame thirty ninth Annual official ballot. Are you palla? Deadline April fifteenth? So are you paying to be? No?

00:03:11
Speaker 1: That?

00:03:12
Speaker 2: Apparently they think I have. Okay, So we have nominees. Nominees are already in so a board does the nominees and the voters vote on whomever makes it. Okay, okay, wait, okay, okay, So are you gonna minimal right now the nominees? Yeah? Why not? I don't know if that's public knowledge. I think it is, okay, because like what if Like I'm Pearl Jam and I'm listening to this podcast, this podcast be like WHOA, I'm a nominee. Will you see if the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominations are public? Because I think they are. For the thirty ninth annual Nominees thirty.

00:03:46
Speaker 4: Nine twenty twenty four nominees announced.

00:03:51
Speaker 2: Okay, rock and would Mary J. Blige be one of the nominees?

00:03:57
Speaker 4: Number one on the list?

00:03:58
Speaker 2: Okay, it's public good, so we have and this is the ballot here that we put in. Yeah. Yeah. It says please vote and then it lists one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen and has my number on the bottom. There's fifteen boxes to check. Please vote for a maximum of seven nominees. Seven out of fifteen. You don't have to vote for seven. Yeah, that's the max. Is there a pin or a sharpie up there? Kevin?

00:04:25
Speaker 4: They go on the backpack.

00:04:27
Speaker 2: So this is so exciting. Up first, we could just roll through the the nominees and see. We won't even say yes or no yet. We'll just go through them first. Up first, I'm gonna do it like they read to us in school where they show the picture to the group. They swing the picture around and show everybody up. First Mary J. Blige, who let's get it crunk. Then the Queen of hip hop and soul, Mary J. Bliche flipped to the R and B world have flipped it on its head. Her anthems of resilience and empowerment have inspired a legion of oil fans, while influencing virtually every R and B artist. In the last twenty years. She's had massive hits with Not Gonna Cry, Family Affair, Just Fine, Long Lived Queen Mary J. I just read some of that. There. She still pumping out records, I'm sure, but I think I would imagine that most of these artists, because I think the rule is twenty or twenty five years from your first record. It's one of that I should I should know that. I'm a voting member, you should know that. So I'm gonna imagine that most of them are still putting out music some but it's not like people are demanding new music because they're so famous. You always just want to go listen to the good stuff. Okay that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, So I don't know if she make a new Stuff'd imagine she put that new suf occasionally, but it's not about what she's doing now, It's about what she's always done up first, that's Mary J. Blige like it. And also I'm fine with any And we had the president of the Rock and Hall of Fame on this show, which is probably maybe why he probably put it in a good words.

00:05:57
Speaker 3: Probably one of those things. As soon as he laught is like, hey, I make sure he's on the next year.

00:06:00
Speaker 2: Cool. Yeah, and hopefully I expressed to him that I have a love, curiosity and knowledge in all formats. Yeah, because which which is what the rock and Roll Hall of Fame is all about. And my point is I think rock and roll to me is rock and roll is like contemporary music and being a dude that's still rock star. That could mean just pushing it correct, So okay, not just long hair and glitter. Mary J. Blige number two, Mariah Carey obviously, Rice.

00:06:27
Speaker 4: Is this a Christmas version?

00:06:29
Speaker 2: Is that what you know? Kevin Well, Kevin's younger than us.

00:06:33
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I mean, don't get me wrong. Of course that's not all I know. But when I think of Mariah, the first thing I think of is Christmas.

00:06:39
Speaker 2: Wow. I don't obviously I don't use a massive superstar in the world.

00:06:45
Speaker 1: Uh.

00:06:45
Speaker 2: It is sweet, Sweet Fantasy baby the roller Coaster, but also being married to Tommytola also that song.

00:06:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't even have a song attached to her. All I think is the one of the most amazing voices in music history.

00:07:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, every generation had somebody that we declare the basically the best, like pop vocalist. Yeah, Maria Carey was that for a while. Yeah, dude. She would hit notes.

00:07:13
Speaker 3: That people would just like, I don't even know how that's even possible.

00:07:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, really high. She has nineteen number one hit, second only to the Beatles. Wow. She in her home life was garbage. If you have ever heard her story, No, I don't know her rough Let me fine if there's a paragraph on that. Carrie's rise to stardom was the stuff of record industry fairy tale. Raised at home, played with chaos. She developed her whisper singing. At seventeen, She moved to New York landed a pivotal role as a backup singer, and a moved that foreshadowed to take charge professionalism. She gave her demo to Tommy Mottola ended up getting married. Ball or move Kevin. That's what I was trying to say.

00:07:51
Speaker 3: The whisper singing she could go with on a high note, but it would also be like a like airy whispers sound, and that would be together, which is like some doctors are just like I don't even know how that's even possible, really, but.

00:08:05
Speaker 2: She's got it. Yes, her pitch, she hit some octave that even the great singers mostly can't get. Too pretty amazing. She won the Grammys for Best New Artist for Vision of Love. That is a vision, you know that one. I don't know any of these that's older. I mean mostly like late eighties, early nineties and nineties. Yeah, but you only know for Christmas. I mean that makes sense. That's why we said you're younger than us. Yeah, oh yeah, mariahs I mean, so Mariah was one, Christina Aguilera was one. Yeah, the best, considered the best, very popular vocalist of the generation, Celine Dion. They're obviously better like opera singers, but I'm talking about like known share is one. How is she not on in there exactly? I agree, like dude, that one's already checked that one. I mean, nineteen sixty five was the year her and Sonny did I Got You Babe, I Got You Babe. She's been famous in multiple ways, from TV movie movies, The map Mask I think it was called she was the Mom, not the mask Mask, not the one with Jerry, that one.

00:09:10
Speaker 3: I don't remember that movie Mask, but I do remember, Yeah, he had some kind of uh deformity or deformity where he had a mess up face and they dealt with that, and she was I think that guy's mom, the kid's mom, and I remember watching it and being like, this is so sad and it's such a like a heart wrenching story. But I don't remember the movie.

00:09:29
Speaker 2: The sixties, her and Sonny. Then she did her own thing, and so then she did like because in the seventies it was like the songs like Gypsy's Trumps and Thieves. Eighties she did the boat on a video where she goes out with all them on a boat. No no, no, that's Sandberg, which are you talking about? The island. It was like an eighties music video where she's in like the stock. It was I've only seen it like a retro video. But she can a pop star again in the eighties, like a slightly different version in the nineties. Do you believe in Love?

00:10:02
Speaker 5: After Love?

00:10:04
Speaker 2: I Love?

00:10:06
Speaker 3: I mean that was massive, huge, and you talk about someone who had a great career in the seventh in the sixties with her husband, with their late husband, and then became a big actress.

00:10:14
Speaker 2: I think for me.

00:10:15
Speaker 3: I remember her being an actress and seen her in TV movies and not a lot of music, which I guess she did have songs. Well, our generation knew her as a black and white singer with Sonny and but we missed a lot of the share as a really contemporary pop star totally. She was in the early eighties and then came back when we were like in high school. Yeah, and that's weird because she was older, Yevin. She was like an older woman singing do you believe in.

00:10:42
Speaker 2: Life after Love? And and introduced that auto tune that a lot of people are one of the first ones. Yeah, it's a good point. So they get twenty five year old something good for her and you have one name. You can last that long, all right? Next update, Matthew's band. Oh, come on, we love Dave. I've already voted we loved My manager, who owns the company, is the one that put Dave Matthew's band together. He Dave was playing in his bar and he found the bassist and he was the one that also took the tapes from It's like, hey, you guys should record Dave Matthew's concert The like I have a personal connection with the guy who put the Dave Matthew's band together. And also I love Dave Matthew's band, I don't much love going to their live shows now sure they just take too long to dame. I like the hits though they're a borderline jam band on their in their.

00:11:34
Speaker 3: Live show, where like they'll take a five minute song four minutes long turned into a seventeen twenty minutes long.

00:11:40
Speaker 2: So much to say? So much? To say? So much? Does you talk about so much? To say? No? No no no no no no no.

00:11:47
Speaker 3: Go ahead, you talk about their manager and all that, and if you kind of just look at their story of how they started and the grassroots way, even the way Korn kind of did that, which I'm sure he was behind all this stuff. Is they took on the college market. So Dave went from these little bars and became college fraternity like bands. So the fraternity party would be like, Hey, we have a party going on on Friday night, can.

00:12:11
Speaker 2: You guys play? And they would do that. At University of Virginia, they would do that. I go to West Virginia. Then they would go to Harvard. They would go and then they became the college tour band that would tour around the.

00:12:22
Speaker 3: Different colleges and just play parties. Really, and that's how like every frat kid and every sorority kid were just like, you got to check out Dave Matthews. They're unbelievable and then before you know it, dude, they were just gigantic.

00:12:34
Speaker 2: Why what you say, don't mark the mayor man any relate? Do you have any emotional relationship with Dave Matthew's band? Were they an older band to you?

00:12:46
Speaker 4: A little bit older? But I do remember them. What was the song you're doing?

00:12:48
Speaker 2: Crap?

00:12:49
Speaker 6: Uh?

00:12:50
Speaker 2: What do you? What? What you sayday?

00:12:53
Speaker 4: Yeah? I know that one?

00:12:54
Speaker 2: Or so much. That's what I was doing so much, to say so much, to say so much, to say no, no, no, no, no, no, okay, what about crap?

00:13:05
Speaker 7: Sh that's it?

00:13:07
Speaker 2: How about how about how about hold on?

00:13:12
Speaker 8: And that's a.

00:13:24
Speaker 2: Good one, dude.

00:13:24
Speaker 4: You guys make it sound good though, thank you man.

00:13:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, we like it. I love Dave Matthew. Yeah we like it, dude, we do that. I've been to a couple of live shows. They're a little too much for me live shows because they just keep going. And I like the songs, I like the hits.

00:13:37
Speaker 4: I feel like they're a band with like a lot of people.

00:13:40
Speaker 2: They have. Yeah, yeah, see that's funny you said that because they only have like five members, but they sound big because they have a saxophonists and then a violin player. But they have like extra band members sometimes like backup singers. Yeah, they have added background singers. Yeah. And then the Dave and.

00:14:00
Speaker 3: Dave and Tim Tim, which they did their own thing for a few years and that was awesome too because it was all acoustics.

00:14:05
Speaker 2: He's from South Africa and it was a band blended different races. And the bass player he was too young because at first Dave was just that band was just playing Corn's two of his bars, yeah, which he was too young to play. Found the kid and the kid was too young to play in the bars to play bass and the kid the kids not adult now ok, yeah, yeah, he doesn't look like a kid anymore. Yeah. But when he played Eric being rakeem so eighties rappers. So for us, not in unless you go and look at the history of hip hop and what was important, you're not going to know a lot of their music if you're a casual to just a fan of hip hop. So we're gonna have missed Eric being Rockeen because we didn't start listening to hip hop until the nineties, because we didn't turn ten until you know, show the classroom his picture. It's two people. Oh yeah, Eric being Rockem, Eric being Rakie.

00:14:59
Speaker 4: I know Rakeem.

00:15:01
Speaker 2: How do you know him? Just he met him?

00:15:03
Speaker 4: Yeah, star bus way back.

00:15:06
Speaker 2: So but they they're like New York guys, Long Island guys. But again, you're not going to know a bunch of like jay z is, someone who's often said they were instrumental in his career because that's who he looked to. So for us, it would be one of those guys we have to go. Well, the greats that we like can admit that they wouldn't be great without Eric being Raheem. Sure, but I'm not going to act like I could list five songs.

00:15:33
Speaker 4: Okay, confessional. I just looked him up, but I have no idea who.

00:15:35
Speaker 2: That is, so you don't know. But like it would be like grand Master Flash if and he made already be in or any of these rappers that started hip hop in New York. We wouldn't know a lot of their songs because we weren't into it then. But we would know a lot of the people that were influenced heavily by those songs. But that's gonna be a tough one for us because we don't really know their music. DJ Cool Hurric and stuff. Is that what you're saying. I don't know who that is?

00:15:58
Speaker 4: Are you making names up?

00:15:59
Speaker 2: Now? He's one of the god fathers are of hip hop documentary somewhere, But like Kendrick Lamar is someone to talk about. So that's gonna be a tough one for us because yea Foreigner. Yeah, we played with Foreigner, we did. We did a couple of members of Foreigner. I want to know what love is? Watch you to show me? Now. We don't know them from our contemporary music listening. It's from classic rock radio. That's right. It's cold as ice. Oh yeah, will in the Sacrifice Love? They I do?

00:16:36
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do.

00:16:36
Speaker 2: I guess they're still but they're still playing. They played The Million Dollar Show three years ago. Yeah, so they played for fifty years. They've been on Miami, Vice, The Simpsons, the rest of development, Stranger Things.

00:16:46
Speaker 9: It feels like the first time.

00:16:50
Speaker 2: It feels like the very first time or hot blooded. So I got a feeler of a one hundred hot Blooded. You could fact check me on these songs. Dude, what do you mean? I think that. I'm just going with you.

00:17:07
Speaker 4: I know all these songs.

00:17:08
Speaker 5: I think juke Box he wrote juke Box Hero Kevin.

00:17:19
Speaker 2: I feel like your dad listened to that stuff.

00:17:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of where that's w Yeah, growing up with him. Yeah, listen to the classic rock radio.

00:17:25
Speaker 2: That's what my step dad would listen to. Listen to classic rock radio all the time, and I didn't know it.

00:17:28
Speaker 4: Jack FM.

00:17:30
Speaker 2: Ours was cool ninety five. I don't remember what ours is and this is the current radio when I was growing pop station. Obviously, I want to know and love me. It's probably their biggest pop so I would think, so I want you to show me.

00:17:43
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's number one it is. I want to know what love is. Yeah, Jukebok, Tiro, Cold as Ice, Waiting for a girl like you.

00:17:50
Speaker 8: I've been waiting poor girl like you.

00:17:54
Speaker 2: You guys are on that one, so good? Do you have another hot Blooded?

00:17:58
Speaker 4: And you guys already that one blooded?

00:18:02
Speaker 2: I don't think we missed any of those.

00:18:04
Speaker 4: You're good. That was yesterday.

00:18:07
Speaker 2: No, no, we're here, we're here today. I don't know that was Peter Frampton. One of my first concerts ever went to also from the seven not Our Time Classic rock radios where I know him.

00:18:22
Speaker 3: Frampton comes alive. Dude, you remember that live album.

00:18:25
Speaker 2: Yep, that's what I know. And I also I see him at the old gym I used to go to here in Nashville. He is old man now, but he works out. He lives here really, so you're there just lifting weights. He just looks the old dude.

00:18:37
Speaker 3: That's crazy, dude, that's crazy when you when you've worked out, you've seen the Undertaker.

00:18:43
Speaker 2: He was on a walk, the stairwalker next to me. I swear he walked for two hours.

00:18:48
Speaker 4: How small did he make that thing?

00:18:49
Speaker 2: Look? Oh, he's just huge, huge, but not huge like the Rock is huge, because Rock's like he's just way tall. Worked down next to the rock to no, But I'm just saying the Rock looks like a car Tune character. He is way tall. But I've met back. He looks like a thick basketball player that we we did the sports shows. We could travel and so it's like six ' ten and they're also a thick That's kind of what the Undertaker look like.

00:19:10
Speaker 3: That's crazy to He's worked out with the Undertaker. I mean in the same gym Peter Frampton and Gary Labox.

00:19:16
Speaker 2: Yep and I pete next to Kicksbrooks before I knew Brooks and done. But that wasn't at the gym.

00:19:20
Speaker 4: Who was the hardest?

00:19:22
Speaker 2: Kicks back? What pe? He does the hand on the wall he gets in hand. Do you know the talk box? Like Peter, let us sing some songs, see if you would even know what they are. For example, let's do.

00:19:36
Speaker 9: I Want You Show Me the Way?

00:19:40
Speaker 1: Yeah?

00:19:40
Speaker 2: Every day? Do you know that song? Because the nybody goes, oh yeah, so it's like a talk box thing he would go through. How about ooh baby, I love you way?

00:19:49
Speaker 4: Great song every day?

00:19:51
Speaker 8: Yeah?

00:19:52
Speaker 3: Yes, What was the first one you say? I want to be with What? What's the first one you said? I thought that was the same song.

00:19:56
Speaker 2: I want you Wow, you know me the way?

00:20:00
Speaker 3: See, we sing that one more than you would think, because like every time we play golf and Bobby's got a put first, I say, I want.

00:20:06
Speaker 2: You show me that you know? Kevin, I'm looking at his songs. You're so do you feel? And this is the one he really uses the talk about that's all right, that's all right, do you feel like I do or like we do?

00:20:20
Speaker 4: Like like we do?

00:20:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, And he walks out of the gym and it was my second or third concert everyone too.

00:20:26
Speaker 3: So Kevin, you understand how the guitar talk box thing works, right? No, So he plugs in the guitar and it's connected to a separate microphone and he would put that microphone mouth and he.

00:20:40
Speaker 2: Would just go h.

00:20:41
Speaker 3: He would just blow into that microphone and whatever he plays in the guitar, that's how it would come out, like whatever note he's playing.

00:20:47
Speaker 2: So it would be like and you can kind of make words to him like that. He could and he could play it and it was so not like Kevin.

00:20:57
Speaker 3: It was almost like his voice was coming out through his guitar.

00:21:00
Speaker 4: That's insane. Yeh want to do that?

00:21:02
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, first maybe I know. Yeah, but like I don't think. I don't think he invented it. Oh he didn't. I don't know. I've never seen anyone else do that, so I don't. I'm not gonna say it was the first episode and be like, well, actually, right, Pesca Johnston did in nineteen.

00:21:16
Speaker 6: Yeah, hang tight, the Bobby cast will be right back.

00:21:28
Speaker 7: And we're back on the Bobby Cast.

00:21:31
Speaker 2: Jane's Addiction. Yeah, that's huge. So I have a cool story with one. We when it comes to just music that we listen to a lot and liked, Janes Addiction probably falls inside of that because we were edding our big alternative fans huge in the nineties.

00:21:46
Speaker 3: And James Addiction was almost an underground huge band, like they weren't mainstream fans.

00:21:52
Speaker 2: But Dave Navarro. You remember Dave Navarrow.

00:21:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was I know him from the Tattoo Show. That's how I knew. And then I looked up the music and I fro ten years ago now.

00:22:00
Speaker 2: But and I my mind takes me to the Seattle grunge scene because that's when the all camp. But they were in l A band. They were in LA band. But there was that time when all those alternative bands were even if they weren't they moved Seattle for like a minute. Correct, we're from Seattle, but they had Jansers I'm done with Sartia. And then they also the dog Cut. Yeah this song has been caught stealing. But when I was five, oh man, am I walk right? That's it? Through the door, right, dude, I.

00:22:48
Speaker 4: Know, I didn't know that's who've seen me?

00:22:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is right, Yeah, God Jane the Dicks. Okay, Cool in the Gang yeah, old, old old Obviously nineteen sixty four is when they formed. But you know they is that love Trainer cool, That's that's it. Okay, cool in the Gang, older than man. I'm listening to their songs. Will you look up for cool in the Gang? Because I feel like I should know. Yeah, I think we would know songs out there, funky stuff, jungle boogie, celebration, that's itbrate, good times, come on, get down on it, get down on it, get it. That's the one. Okay cherish m hm. I bet we would know it played that. You can just play it from afar right there. Mm hmm. We might have to get to that chorus. Yes, kip up, skip up a little bit. Okay, I don't know that, Oh I do. I do that terroris for I wouldn't know everywhere, but I do. I've heard that before. That's tough the seventies. Sixty four was formed in the seventies. Yeah, and then eighties they had oh oh yes, it's late is night? What night it is? Oh yes, it's late is not? Oh what? Oh what nice Okay, cool the Gang. We have a few more. That's it. Lenny Kravitz. Yeah, I mean, I love Lenny Kravitz. I think he's not in because he's not that old yet, or does he just look so young we think he's not that old. Possibly, but again I think he's probably one of those whose album this year is twenty five years later, if I'm guessing. But Lenny Kravitz so originally the old school Lenny, like a go my Way even even before that. Really, yeah, I have too many cooling Gang songs in my head now, But he had like Kevin, what do you see on that? Because oh oh I got it.

00:25:01
Speaker 9: Baby, it ain't over till it's over many is that crap?

00:25:07
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, dude, inside, oh baby, it ain't over till it's like ninety one. That to me is like the first Lenny that I would love. And I saw the video, so that was before Flyaway or Way When to Get a ly Away ninety eight? Yeah, wow, yeah, seven, it's a whole like version of him different.

00:25:30

00:25:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was my first time seeing him at the iHeart in Vegas.

00:25:51
Speaker 2: I would love to see him though, like at home depot, like in his khakis one day and he was in Hunger Games, you know what I mean.

00:25:58
Speaker 3: I would I just I would love to see it at the grocery store line.

00:26:00
Speaker 2: I think you would let me. It's like Hawaii and he's like getting some plant, you know. But yeah, I want to get away. I want to fly away. Yeah yeah, or oh. One of the most famous intro guitar riffs of that thing Dan Dan Dan about his heart save it. Maybe I really want to know? Are you gonna go my way? Oh? Manes? Some of these just hit us. Perfect? Is where the age for it to be perfect? And then he did when the Austin Powers movies came out, maybe Austin Powers too. American Woman get Away, but he didn't write that. That's the guests who back in the day. But it was a really cool version. American Woman is what I say. Hey, he too is an actor. I said that he was Seneca and Hunter. Y I know I went there early because I like hungry. I'm sorry, I was thinking of the music. Yeah, many cards Oasis? Come on? Man, any more do we have? Because we spent an hour on each I dude, I love so we have? Looks like after Oasis, just two more? Nope, four more to go through? Oh wait, but some of them were not gonna voe want to vote for some of them? So Oasis interesting? Like I love oys?

00:27:18
Speaker 3: Who gets the award? Who goes to that? Did the brothers get together and do that together?

00:27:22
Speaker 2: The full band would go wow? But they all don't have to show up, or you could be like some bands and just not show up at all, be a real rock start them.

00:27:30
Speaker 3: Although those inductions are really cool, man, Oasis was awesome to me.

00:27:34
Speaker 2: First song where you're just like, wow, this is well. The cliche song is Wonderwall. That's not cliche. Well now it is because every dude plays it at a party because it's easy to play, right, or did at least a while.

00:27:45
Speaker 3: But when that came on the radio, though, it was so different than anything else that was on the radio at that moment where you had to stop and be like, this is cool.

00:27:53
Speaker 2: Wonder was awesome. When did that come out on Wonderwall, I would guess ninety four. I'm guessing ninety four, ninety six. Okay, well it's not again, I don't. I'm not claim I'm not. No, that's my game. I'm not putting my flag on the ground and arguing with you about it. Is Kevin looking it up? Come on?

00:28:14
Speaker 1: Oh?

00:28:15
Speaker 2: Who cares? Maybe ninety but that was our second album, so it could have been like ninety six Wonder Walls or second album because that was what's the story? Morning Gloria. Oh in the middle. Their early stuff Live Forever, which big in UK and I. I started listening to it once they were already cool. I wasn't cool enough to know before they got cool. I wouldn't either. I only know.

But they play this because they played an Arkansas gamest the intro the intro video, will you play from the beginning. It's one of the greatest intros of any rock song ever from your phone, far from a microphone, so we don't get sued there we go, Oh yeah, this is this intro. It almost sounds like it'd be like I Am hard, but it's not. But it shows like actual You can let it keep going over a second, pigs like hogs running out, busting through, and then this part right here hits when it starts to jump up a little bit, get forward like ten seconds a dozen.

Okay, how many do we have left after Ozzie? Well, I didn't mark Ozzie because I'm not saying it's absolute yet. Yes, Black Sabbath, Yes, Ozzie. Probably. I mean it's your ballot.

00:39:33
Speaker 4: Like eight, right, But I know the name Peter Frampton. I don't really know Foreigner. I do know those songs, but I didn't know who dude Frampton man, But you know the name I know Peter, like like I know I know the name Gorbachaw too, but I.

Speaker 2: No, so we keep an assy in I would Okay? Are they both bigger than Mary J. Bige? Yes? Okay? Are they both bigger than Eric b Rakeeim I have to plead ignorance to that? Yeah, So it's Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Jane's addiction and Ozzy Osbourne For the last vote. We took Jane's out, we did, okay, So it's Foreigner, Peter Frampton, and Ozzy. I vote Ozzy.

00:40:37
Speaker 2: Who do you want bones you want foreigner over those three?

00:40:40
Speaker 5: No?

00:40:40
Speaker 2: Maybe I have a loyalty Toegner because I can't play our shirt. I mean, I shouldn't let that bias me, but I do love cool. Okay, so I'm gonna cut let's Cutegner. It's either Peter Frampton or Ozzy. Now, remember, you can't associate Black Sabbath. They're already in not I mean, Black Sabbath wouldn't have been Black Sabbath without Ozzy. So no, Ozzie wouldn't have been the solo artist without Black Sabbath. What are you talking about? Ozzy was the star I hear, but how do you know? But he didn't write all the songs, like every one of them. The le guitar player was very famous.

00:41:15
Speaker 3: But I think it's a testament when the lead guy leaves and he can do it all by himself.

00:41:19
Speaker 2: That that's the reason that band was.

00:41:21
Speaker 4: Everyone knows him, Peter, Ozzy, oh z Z why.

00:41:28
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame? Baby?

00:41:30
Speaker 4: You know it's funny. The first thing I remember a boy him is that is that reality show.

00:41:33
Speaker 2: I know that's terrible. Okay, I'll go with you as Ozzy. You really want to Frampton in there?

00:41:39
Speaker 1: No?

00:41:39
Speaker 2: I I feel like Ozzy doesn't have the library himself. But I do, I do, I do think, but it's just versus those I do think, being the rock and Hall of Fame. I mean, what are we missing on Ozzie? We're missing Ozzy songs? Can you look? He did? He looked at it. No, no, no, there's more. Though I know there's more. He didn't make three songs. No, no, but that were like big here, let's not stupo, what not dancing crazy train?

00:42:04
Speaker 3: No more tears, no more tears, tears, bark at the moon.

00:42:10

00:42:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, really cool, dude, Thanks for letting us be a part of that. Hopefully we don't get voted out for talking about about it.

00:43:01

00:43:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, do you think our picks will be the seven? I don't think it's like a parlay where if you hit all seven we get to go the one.

00:43:21
Speaker 2: Who hit all seven. It's Eddie, Bobby and Kevin. Come on, guys, we get awarded an award.

00:43:25
Speaker 4: Yeah, the best voters.

00:43:28
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll mail it off today. But that was fun. That was very all right. Good luck to everybody, especially if you're one of the seven week hit y. Yeah, good luck guys.

00:43:36
Speaker 7: The Bobby Cast will be right back. This is the Bobby Cast.

00:43:50
Speaker 2: So I'm on TikTok a lot, and sometimes I'll watch videos of people telling stories and I'll get sucked in and then at the end I'm like, oh, Wow, that either sucked or they go go to part two and then I'm annoyed. They maybe watch it and I didn't know his part two. But every once in a while I'll watch a story and I'm like, oh, that's funny, because that's kind of tricked a little bit. And this is how I won't say discovered. This's how I found Alexander for the first time. It was on TikTok and you were telling the story about the Grammys, Alexander, which was a really great story and really cool that you got to go to the Grammys. Would you give, like Mike, who probably is here with me, just to give him like a brief description of what happened to you at the Grammys and just so he can kind of feel the emotion of it.

00:44:30
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I was actually in La visiting a friend for an acting job and I found out he was working the night of the Grammys, which was a surprise to me, and anyway, he brought me along. I got to dress up and be backstage and made a friend just kidding. She didn't really like me that much, but she's very well known singer and so that was fun watching all this stuff backstage. And then my friend grabbed me on stage during mike check and told me to sing one of my songs, and I blacked out, and I guess I started seeing on my songs and then next thing I know, Jay z was like clapping for me and everyone was clapping and standing, so, which is great.

00:45:08
Speaker 2: Yeah in the audience, that's awesome. And so she tells the story. It blows up and I think her name was Amanda. Is that what you called her in the story? That's right, like you covered first. She don't want to say the person's name Amanda. And so, Mike, have you seen the video, by the way, I haven't seen it. Nok. So she's telling the story and and we'll just go like, we won't do the TikTok deal. We'll tell what I so, Amana, what I don't. Amna's not real. And so you made the whole story yep, right, Alexandra correct, okay, and you know that. But if you just stick to the end, you know that. But it was blowing up and people were getting so upset and they were guessing everybody, and it had gone completely viral because people didn't wait to the end of the video before they started to get upset. And I felt like it was kind of what our culture does anyway, Like that was just a microcosm of our culture. You get way upset before you get to the end, or you actually don't read the story you just read the headline and you get upset. So that video in particular, did you feel when that started to gain some traction. Did that feel weird to you that they were like blaming people for this fake person you invented.

00:46:07
Speaker 1: It felt weird, but I had experienced it before. Right before Christmas, I posted a monologue that I actually just came up with in the moment, and it was about a fiance cheating on me and breaking up before Christmas. But at the end I always said, you know, that's my monologue. Let me know what you think in the comments, Thanks so much, And still people did not understand. To this day, I still get private messages about, you know, their cheating stories and stuff like that. So it's interesting.

00:46:33
Speaker 2: So do you feel like you are a performance artist when you do these stories and that if people understand what you're doing, they understand that it is just you playing a role and you are an actress too, or do you feel like some people are so dumb they they're just a lot of people are just gonna expect to be they're being lied to, they feel like they're being lied to.

00:46:53
Speaker 1: I mean, first and foremost, it came from a place of being an actor and like kind of a writer filmmaker mindset, and I really thought that most people would stick to the end of these videos and they would get it and we would all be in on it together. But that does not happen, like we've just been talking about. So it's kind of snowballed, and I just have fun with it, and I understand that half the people get it. Half of them probably won't, but it's fun, especially for the people.

00:47:20
Speaker 2: Who what's your most viral video?

00:47:24
Speaker 1: Most viral I think would be the moisture Man.

00:47:29
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't know the moisture video see. And I had a if I stay on somebody's TikTok too long. For example, we have an artist coming in named Grace who's like a seventeen year old prodicty guitar player. But I can only watch a couple of guitar videos of hers because I didn't want my algorithm to send me a bunch seventeen year old girls. I didn't want it to send me the wrong thing from the algorithm, and so I'd watch a couple of years, but I was like, I can't have my TikTok algorithm start sending me, you know, a bunch of and I'm not sure old you are, late twenties females that just my wife would be like, why are there thirteen? You know, to get ye old females or however old shees on you. So I would watch like two, and I would go away and fill it with some football, you know, I'd fill it with some you know, dirt or something, and then I would come back and watch another one. So I don't know moisture man, so part So what was that one about back in.

00:48:14
Speaker 1: January when we had that crazy freeze here in Nashville.

00:48:18
Speaker 2: I do know moisture man. Oh my god, I do know. He came to your apartment, yes, your house or whatever. Yes, Okay, go ahead. I'm a loser because I know this one, because I guess I've seen them all. Go ahead.

00:48:28
Speaker 1: Yeah. I live in a duplex, so I share a wall with my neighbors, and we were warned by our landlords so many times your pipes might freeze, take precautions. So I did everything because I have OCD and I'm very anxious about that, and you know it's unfortunate. But it happened in their pipe burst and my unit flooded as well. So we had, you know, we had people come out and take care of that, and one of the guys in particular kept coming back to check and we had a funny text exchange that I decided to share, and that text exchange was real. It just snowballed from there and everyone wanted more moisture.

00:49:01
Speaker 2: Man, So you know, so that part was real. And then how how absurd did it get when it turned into fiction?

00:49:10
Speaker 1: Yeah? I got pretty absurd. I took it there and it can keep going. I feel like it's a story that needs to keep being told because people want this. I don't know if you've heard a book talk, but it's like people were like, please write this book, make this a book. I need this to be a book on tape like a movie. So it just kind of snowballed and it got really fun. But the text exchange that started the whole thing was real and those were my real feelings, and I thought it was hilarious. So I just sat down and recorded it in the moment.

00:49:38
Speaker 2: So and all of this is for this question, like, what have you learned about creation on social media or music anything with a new what have you learned from kind of dialing in on this fictional but with a little bit of truth niche that has made your TikTok extremely popular.

00:49:58
Speaker 1: I think that I think we really love connecting with every day regular people, and it's becoming less. I think about the mirrors and smoke of like really big budget movies. I mean, that's always going to be popular. I mean, I don't know. I don't know where we're going. I have thoughts about that, but I think that we really love just listening to people tell stories, even if it's just inspired from real things, and then we know the rest is kind of you know, gets elaborate, but it just feels relatable and we get to escape to our imagination a bit, but also still feel like we're connecting with a real person talking about everyday things that we think about all the time. How funny or crazy this is. But a lot of people don't share it or don't have a space to talk about it and get feedback from everyone. So I don't know, it feels like an entire community, and I realize how much people love story and also just love listening to someone's day and listen to someone talk and find themselves in the story as well.

00:51:00
Speaker 2: Did the I don't the fifty part series. I don't know who I'm married. Yes, like that went extremely par It's a fifty part series. She just got signed by CIA. Like it's a huge deal. And you might have, I say you the universal you listening, you might have turned it on. Are caught up at part twenty seven as the very first one, but it got so big and it is exactly your point. People crave story and they follow that through fifty of those. Did you happen to see any of the fifty parts? Yeah?

00:51:27
Speaker 1: I did, of course. I was hearing so much about it, and it's it's exactly what where I think we are headed also in terms of content and what we like to consume. I mean, YouTube has been around forever and now TikTok is you know, trying to compete with YouTube. But I think this might be where we're going even in terms of you know, movies and series. I think that it's going to be very approachable and very like easy to make because at the end of the day, we just want to hear, like I said, like a regular everyday person that we can see ourselves and talk about with going on in their lives, and it's fascinating. It's like people cook their dinner listening to this stuff. They're commute. It's like you get really into it. I do too.

00:52:10
Speaker 2: You're an artist in many ways. Obviously we'd mentioned that you're an actress, and I was reading a lot of your accolades, so it's the real deal. But from your TikTok, I went over to your Instagram and it's positioned a bit different and there were some of your music over on Instagram. So you were in a band and are you still in a band? And I know you're doing solo stuff as well, So where are you musically now?

00:52:32
Speaker 1: Yeah. When I came to Nashville, I met some people who were actually from Ohio as well, where I'm from, and we all connected here and we formed a rock band called Brother Sister Stone and we played a bunch around town and that was really awesome to get immersed in the music scene here. And now I do my solo stuff and I spent two years roughly making my first full length album, and I produced it entirely myself with my producing partner. We played every instrument ourselves. It was like a true labor of love. And I just released that in October, and I knew it would be kind of like a slow reception because like a lot of people didn't even know my music, and now it's kind of getting some traction because of my tiktoks, which is really fun to see that happening. But yeah, so I did that and I'm going to be releasing more music this year as well.

00:53:27
Speaker 2: How would you define your music?

00:53:28
Speaker 1: Is it?

00:53:29
Speaker 7: Is it?

00:53:29
Speaker 2: I mean I've heard it on your tiktoks, But is it country or not? Tikkeo Instagram? Is it country music?

00:53:33
Speaker 1: No, I wouldn't say it's country. I think it's influenced by a lot of different genres, just like every pretty much every artist right now. But I call it like indie pop, indie rock. It's definitely like a combination of things like classic rock mixed with some folk mixed with pop and rock. And I had my most country song would be a song I wrote called I Have Cried. That's definitely got like a country feel to it. But yeah, it's an eclectic mix.

00:53:59
Speaker 2: I think if you just said yeah, I'm a country artist, everybody like yeah, because you know, folk, classic rock, rock, pop. You know that's just somebody going yeah, I mean that is that is what country music is. Or a big part of it now. So when I listen, I was like, I wonder how she defines herself and so here's a here's another question after for you, and I don't know if this is real. Are you a witch? Yeah?

00:54:20
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm serious.

00:54:21
Speaker 2: Hold on, hold on, hold on, I'm serious. I don't want to do a story. I don't want to do it because she's gonna leave me down a trail. I'm gonna find out Amanda's the witch, and then are I feel like she's gonna get me? Are you? What does that mean that you're you're a good witch?

00:54:35
Speaker 1: It means that I'm good at what I do, okay, And that's it's not about you know, we have the good witch trope the bad witch trope, and a lot of people are like, are you a good witch or bad witch? So I'm like, no, I'm a good witch because I'm good at what I do. And it's tongue in cheek, it's fun, it's meant to be lighthearted. But yeah, there's absolutely truth to that. That's a big part of my life.

00:54:57
Speaker 2: Well, hold on, so you just did the whole thing where she zigged and then shape me with the zag at the very end, because you're like, yeah, do you have mystical powers in real life?

00:55:09
Speaker 7: Do you feel that yes?

00:55:11
Speaker 1: One percent?

00:55:13
Speaker 2: Okay, and what would they be?

00:55:16
Speaker 1: I feel like I was gifted with a psychic sortive energy that has passed its way down my bloodline. And that's a very real thing, and it's not something that is just unique to myself. I think that all of us are extremely way more powerful than we realize we are, and that's a real thing. I think we have so much control over our realities and what we're able to manifest. I'm huge into manifestation, and of course that's having a moment right now, but just being real about it, I think we all are way more powerful than we realize if we can focus our minds and our thoughts and our emotions and create like anything that we want. So that's what I would say about that. And yeah, personally, I do think that I've tapped into some abilities that I've just honed over the years that are really, you know, special to me and it informs a lot of what I do.

00:56:15
Speaker 6: And yeah, let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor. Welcome back to the Bobby Cast.

00:56:31
Speaker 2: So now that is different to me than someone saying that they're just a which is funny, which is a brew which does spells. But you saying that, yeah, I do believe too that I just have not been able to tap into certain parts of myself that other people have tapped into about themselves or other like And I in no way could prove that you're wrong. As a matter of fact, I'm probably like, yeah, I'll bet she has that ability if she's done it successfully over time. But you can't do spell because if you can do spells, I'd like to just have you do a couple. You're not really a spell which you're more of, I don't know, clairvoyant, You're more of a you read like vibrations, Like what do you feel like you're the best at.

00:57:10
Speaker 1: I think that I have seen aura before. If you've heard of people who can kind of see like the color around things, I've definitely seen that. But just like at the heart of it, I just think I'm very intuitive and the which thing is really funny because it's crazy how much it affects people. I've noticed it can be very polarizing, which is more fun for me because I'm going to dig deeper into that because I think it's I think it's always been something I've been interested in since I was a kid, and it's having a whole resurgence now. But I think the word which is so cool because it's like a reclaiming of the word, whereas in the past it meant something different than what I think it means today, for specifically for women, And in that way, I think it's powerful. There's even a book I think it's called which it is called witch By I can't think of the author, but it's all about reclaiming the word and the meaning of it, and that alone, I think can mean so much more than the traditional witch that we've all come to know, like as kids from our upbringing. But yeah, I love it. I go to Salem for Halloween every single year. Oh wow, never miss it. It's so fun. It's like it's insane.

00:58:24
Speaker 2: It's like you're part of it, but you're also playing into it a bit too. That's hilarious. The witch things is now, it's awesome. I'd claim I was a witch too, if are you? Because people people are way more interested because of how you position it. Even I am like, are you do you think when you say how you feel about yourself? I'm like, yeah, I get that, Okay, cool, I don't have that, but I'm not going to say that other people don't that have invested in themselves. And if you feel like it comes down through your family, do you feel what about your family did, like your mom or your grandmother, did they have the spiritual powers or anything?

00:58:54
Speaker 1: Yes, and neither of them would it would ever be like I'm a witch. That's I feel like it's a new general thing that we've like we've reclaimed that word and like what it means and all everything to do with that. But my mom and my grandma, my mom's mom, have both had very interesting supernatural experiences in their lives and they're the most pragmatic, down to earth people, like this is not wuu so you would. I mean they're from Ohio and they're just like salt of the earth everyday people. So the fact that these stories have stuck with them over the years, I mean I've heard these stories since i was a little kid. I know it's real, and I've had similar experiences to their experiences as well. And I have heard that those types of things can be generational. You know, who really knows, Like it's so much more vast than we're able to comprehend. I think like that whole spiritual realm. But yeah, definitely, I think I might get it from my mom and my grandma to some degree.

00:59:54
Speaker 2: If someone said, Hey, I'd like to pay you to do a future tell my future, what would how would you do that? Could you do that? Or what could do you? Actually, I won't even say predicts. I don't think it's a fair word to use. What could you by being with them? What could you gather about them?

01:00:09
Speaker 1: I think it would be more about I don't know if I want to use this word, but more of like a guidance, if that's even what they wanted. I would never claim to say I know your future. I think that's kind of ridiculous. Granted I have gone to traditional psychics you know, in the past, and most of the time just completely for fun. I've had one or two experiences that knocked me off my feet and I was like, Okay, I wish everyone could have that experience, because most of the time it's just not real, and I think some people get taken advantage of. So I would never say I'm going to, you know, tell you your future. But I am very intuitive and if anyone wanted, you know, to have a conversation with me or whatever, I would just kind of read their energy, the situation and what I thought was going on and offer my I guess my my take on things and more from a friends stand point, then I know all and let me share with you. I think that's kind of ridiculous.

01:01:04
Speaker 2: And that's why I didn't say predict because I want to be insulting about what we see on television as a psychic and they wear the hat or Miss Cleo or you know, because again I do think that's completely a different thing, and they're trying to just take advantage financially of certain folks that are looking for some sort of safety net. We have my coast on the radio show her cousin has when she talks to us, she has, you know, these intuitive abilities. What does she call herself, Mike? Do you know she doesn't call herself a psychic because that's old school eighties, nineties type stuff. I don't remember the term right, But she she does a very similar thing. She works, that's definitely part of it. But she does like walks to forty five hundred company. She's come on this show and with me medium yeah, she definitely a medium. I think that's her general term for all the things that she does. She considers herself a medium. And she came on and my wife now and I were dating, and I wasn't talking about getting engaged or anything. But and this is the one that kicked me in the head. She said, Hey, I know when you're going to get engaged. I just feel it, like not I know, like I can predict the future, but like, I really feel that there's this time period coming up when I think you're going to get engaged. And I'm not going to tell you what it is, but she told my co host she's a really good friend of mine, and my coast wrote it in a freaking envelope and sealed it, wrote the date on it. We kept it and I didn't tell anybody when it was coming up. I didn't because I didn't want to know, because I don't want it to affect me. I didn't want to be like, I'll prove that wrong or I'll prove that right. So I never knew. And like eight months out, she freaking nailed it. It was like a parlor trick. It was so good, Like how did she break down the studio and slide it in an envelope And I was like, how did you do that? And she goes, I don't know the answer to how I do it, but it's a gift that I'm I feel like I've been born with that. It's just an intrinsic part of me. Does that feel familiar to you at all?

01:02:51
Speaker 1: Oh? Absolutely, I have so many experiences like that. I just lost my leg. But interestingly, since that major tornado we had here in Nashville in twenty twenty, I've become really sensitive about weather and tornadoes and stuff, and I've been having this weird thing happened where there was a tornado last year, I think, or a couple of years ago, and I was dreaming of a tornado and it felt so real and visceral and it terrified me. And I woke up like a minute or two before the alert came out on our phones. And I've been having that happen with weather related events. Even I was talking to Morgan about the plane crash that happened right next to me two nights ago, and I had the weirdest synchronicities about that type of event happening the day before leading up to it so, and I agree with what she said. It's like, you don't know where that comes from. It's just a part of you. And the more that you lean into it and accept it and are curious about it, the more it tends to happen. So yeah, I relate to that.

01:03:58
Speaker 2: And you know, we started this off going, Yeah, your stories are funny and they turn into fiction and we follow stories. But this part of you, this is not fiction, right, This is you telling me legitimately how you feel and what you do. Because if you are to tipy, because if you're going to get me again in the end, you know, I'm gonna this is real, right, because this is real to me. This is real to you too, right, Yeah, it's real to me. We need like a like a like an ear tug or something when like she's screwing with me, so I know I can go along with it some time. Yeah, So what is your goal? Like? Now, you know we have a lot of people that listen to this, what is your goal If I were like to point people to something that you do that they could consume. Is it music? If they just get one? Like, where are you gonna be to send people from here?

01:04:41
Speaker 1: Send people to my Spotify, and of course TikTok is a place where a lot most people are finding me, but Spotify is where my music is. My album's kind of getting some attention right now and help people are loving the music. So I guess that's what I would say. I released my album in October, so it's been a minute, but it's still you know, in the term of albums, they take forever to make and come out, so it's still kind of like still fresh.

01:05:07
Speaker 2: I think you're wildly talented. Again, it's rare that I'll see somebody on any form of media just go like, oh, I got to figure out what this person's about. But just and then reading your story of the different ways that you have involved yourself in media, if it's acting, if it's movies, if it's music, if it's you know, just telling these stories on TikTok like that. You're really good at what you do. And the thing is, I can't even really define what you do because, like you're talking about, there's just something about connection that is currency, and I think you got that. And so I was super intrigued and we gave all your social media handles and all that before you and I started but I'm super grateful that you came on to talk about a little bit. I think you have a humongous future ahead of you in whatever direction you want to go. Are you. Do you get any aura around me? I know we're on FaceTime right now, but is there anything you can you can tell me about me?

01:05:56
Speaker 1: I think you're super activated, like in a good way, and I I think that's why you are the way you are and where you are. I think you are very action oriented, and that's something I admire because I take forever sometimes to take an action and to execute on something. But I think that you are like very fiery and full of energy and you can use that to help you Sometimes it can probably feel chaotic. I don't know if you experienced that, like racing energy and thoughts, but I feel like it's such a gift to have that type of energy that you have and to channel it into things that you really want to bring into life, because you have this ability to create awesome things and bring people together. So that's what I would say about that.

01:06:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel chaotic all the time, every second of my life. Yeah, I want to like run from the chaos, and I can't quite get away. From it, but I'm a big fan, a recent fan, so not a lifelong fan, but a recent fan, and really looking forward to our listeners checking out your music and having you on again at some point. It's really been a cool half hour so hanging out. So thanks a lot.

01:06:59
Speaker 7: Thank you so much than for having me, thanks for listening to a Bobby Cast production.
