Don't even I haven't even talked to you. I'm talking to the audience. The podcast is called Busting with the Boys. At first, it was called The Den Podcast working title. As Taylor like to tag in there. Yeah, we scrapped that name. Our personality is like the den is more of like I guess Will's deal with. People think we just scrapped it. We scrapped the whole thing. We scrapped the whole bit. We bought a bus. People told us we should have it. Something factor around the bus. Beautiful bus by the way, it's a Dale Earnhard junior, rustic looking bus. You guys have probably seen it on social media.

00:02:10

00:02:15
Speaker 3: No busting with the boys?

00:02:17
Speaker 1: Okay, Facebook page busting with the boys, Instagram and Twitter busting WTB. It pains me to do that stuff because it is annoying. But in this episode zero double zero, whatever we're gonna call this episode, that is our chance to support us, you know, you know, support our page. Support what we're doing. We love to have you following us. We love your input. Comment all the time, make fun of us. It's all about throwing shit back and forth at each other. Yes, there's gonna be a little cussing, it's gonna be raw. We're gonna raise a little hell. We're gonna have some whiskey every now and then. We're just do two dudes being dudes, sitting with another dude or gal, bring in some cool, some dope conversation, storytelling, talking about their journey.

00:03:09
Speaker 2: I guess our journeys.

00:03:10
Speaker 1: If they want to ask us, just whatever comes out of our mouths, we're gonna have. So we have a pretty cool guest list that we're trying to you know, we got a cool list of people that were trying to get on board. I know we were on the phone today with likes of kid Rock. You know, we have we have people all over. I don't want to ruin stuff. I don't want to, you know, stick my foot in my mouth by saying guests that are going to come on, they don't come on for a while, but I know coming up we're gonna have Delaney Walker, my favorite player on the Tennessee Titans, and probably potentially in the National Football League. We also have our guy, Adam Bobo, who runs this company out of Nashville called a Ret. I hope I'm saying that right, a ret, not a rat. But it's our our ivy guy. He's our ivy guy, our fluid guy. You know, we don't use the saline bags of ivs that you see at hospitals and such, but a lot of him in enrich nutrient ivy bags and he kind of runs that side of things for us. So we're gonna have him on, bring him cool insight.

00:04:07
Speaker 2: But yeah, man, you know I'm gonna go on tangents. We're gonna be all over the place.

00:04:11
Speaker 1: I'm fired up about this podcast. We have our own podcast. It's something that I've thought about now for a few years, and I was insecure about starting one.

00:04:24
Speaker 2: I didn't know how it do.

00:04:26
Speaker 1: The boy was by himself, right, and these kind of goals and this stuff down, like, you know, have be one of the first players and something to have a podcast. And this past year, a few of the homies Derek Morgan, Logan, Ryan Kevin Byer, to name a few, They would mess with me sometimes, you know, around the training room or in the locker room, like you comp wouldn't you have a podcast? Oh, that'd be a good idea, you should have one. And it was kind of like the affirmation I needed from like peers on my level of work to you know. Once they said that, I just jolled in my mind you to do this, and he stopped being a pussy And so here we are, Man, Taylor and I we kind of met over podcasting, talking podcast Joe Rogan, Ben Greenfield, Crystal Leah to name a few of the Fighter and the Kid. Those have been at big inspirations I know for me personally Taylor, he's a big fan of Joe Rogan, Ben Greenfield stuff.

00:05:20
Speaker 2: Now Crystal Lee.

00:05:21
Speaker 1: I've got him on Crystal Llia but uh, and I'm taking credit for that, but yeah, and then we we kind of agreed to start this podcast.

00:05:29
Speaker 2: I was about to.

00:05:30
Speaker 1: I was planning on going all in in December or January, after the season was over.

00:05:34
Speaker 2: He wanted in. I was all about it.

00:05:37
Speaker 1: Then he ghosted and went to California to live, you know, to be to be a beach boy for a few months, him and his him and his beautiful wife and child, the bean who Man, I can't wait to have the Bean on as a guest. She can barely talk, but we're gonna have her on, that's for sure. But he yeah, he ghosted me for about four months. I'm like, you know, thinking it was kind of an excuse to wait longer to do the podcast. But I told myself if he didn't want to do it, I was gonna do it regardless. But feeling him out, he wanted all in, was all about it. So that's one of my best dudes. So I waited on him. I waited to get this thing done. I got to meet Cardboard Films. They're doing our audio and video and a bunch of other legwork for us. They're freaking studs, dude, Cardboard Films, Hey.

00:06:25
Speaker 2: Where do we meet you guys? What would you guys do for Taylor and Taylor? What was it? Yeah?

00:06:33
Speaker 1: Taylor and Taylor. Taylor kind of made the whole fort there. Did this Home Street Home for like this project for homeless people for you know, giving back and things of that sort. And Cardboard Films put together this ten minute documentary and they fell in love with cardboard. Taylor plugged me in with cardboard. I was going to go a different route with a video audio guy and he's like, you know, meet my guys at Cardboard, YadA, YadA, YadA. I ended up coming across Cardboard because my buddy Derek Morgan and was doing a documentary with them, and I got to do this cool interview for him, and I sat down and talked to him about the whole podcast idea, and they, like, you know, wanted to be on board, and they jumped at the idea.

00:07:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, And so we got this thing.

00:07:14
Speaker 1: Roland met a few times, waited on Taylor to get his ass back to Nashville. Now we're here OTAs, we decided we needed to hire out some interns. One his name is what's your last name?

00:08:00
Speaker 3: I was spirit king.

00:08:01
Speaker 2: What the what is spirit?

00:08:04
Speaker 3: I got the spirit man, That's what that means.

00:08:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, Zach is he's a he's an intern for us. He goes to the University of Tennessee.

00:08:12
Speaker 1: He does some quality video work for those guys for the women's basketball team, right correct. They have a steal, you know, just based off the stuff you do with us here, I think you're a stud man. We hired out another intern. I don't even know his name. We're not even gonna talk about it. He's already put out a few tweets of us. He was our first tweet that wanted to go follow. Everybody begging for follows, like, hey, we'll follow the first five hundred ridiculous. We're not even gonna talk about him on here yet. But we hired this other intern. He's he does well too, but he will not be He's not gonna be talked about.

00:08:46
Speaker 2: And so here we are.

00:08:48
Speaker 1: We have a squad of five people, myself, Taylor Wan six, okay, six people, Zach, the unknown intern that we don't know yet, PP and Juice.

00:09:00
Speaker 2: PP and Juice run Cardboard Films. Did I miss anybody? They miss anybody?

00:09:06
Speaker 1: So our squad's deep, man, and we're you know, listen, I'm already all over the place. And that's kind of gonna be the idea of the podcast. We're gonna have dope conversations with people and we're just kind of doing whatever the hell we want to do. We want to reach more people, we want to use our platform better, you know, we want to we want to engage with you guys. We want to engage with the audience. We want to have cool people sitting down with us. The conversations that go on, for instance, in the locker room, in the sauna, in the steam room and the cold tub outside of the facility, when you're talking about ambitious, ambitious things with your teammates, as far as things you do in performance, business, anything, health, all of that stuff. Taylor and I thought it would be awesome if we take these conversations, get them recorded, and do some really cool video work and visual work as well on social media to engage with you guys, because I think it's dope, man. I think it's cool that, you know, we get to relate experiences that we have with you guys.

00:10:09
Speaker 2: We get to do.

00:10:09
Speaker 1: It from a spot where a spot of curiosity, not a spot of work give feeding you guys information on how to live your life, but more the questions we ask on a daily basis in our lives, by who.

00:10:23
Speaker 2: We consult with, who we sit and hang out with.

00:10:26
Speaker 1: And we just want to have these things recorded and push through video content and some fun stuff we're gonna do with with cardboard films and our couple interns. And I think it's gonna be awesome, man, But I'm excited, Zach. The big reason you're on here, you know again, this is like our one of the first episodes we recorded, and it's just me missing the boy.

00:10:49
Speaker 2: He's sitting in the boy's chair. He's sitting in Taylor's chair.

00:10:53
Speaker 1: And the reason I want to have you on is maybe some questions are just you speaking from an audience perspective on know what you think Busting with the Boys could potentially bring to the table.

00:11:05
Speaker 2: I don't know.

00:11:05
Speaker 1: I really we don't know why we had you on, but we want to have you on. We want you to have a few minutes to speak ask some questions, maybe because we want to give our audience, you know, we want to answer some things that they might have and you might have.

00:11:19
Speaker 2: That perspective that they do. Here's your here's your here's your moment, this is don't ruin it.

00:11:25
Speaker 3: Don't ruin it. So no, I think the point kind of the point of this, kind of, like you said, is to humanize yourself. I mean, you're just a normal person. You do normal things, you have normal conversations with other normal people. When I think you want to kind of spotlight this stuff and bring that to the table because I mean, you might have a lot more money than I do, but you're another person just like me.

00:11:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know that was well said. That was well said. Uh yeah, for sure. Like the same the same things that go on in like my mind and probably Taylor's mind is the same thing that goes on in everybody's mind. Like everybody's trying to find their way through this this life cycle with a lot of curiosity, learning from people like me.

00:12:05
Speaker 2: I'm a huge podcaster, man.

00:12:06
Speaker 1: I'm just constantly curious on on things, and recently I'm curious with my transition once I transition away from football. And I'm not saying like that's not a retirement shout right there. That's just me understanding that I am a you know, twenty nine year old linebacker that is not getting any younger. So I'm very fascinated with learning what I'm going to be doing once I transition out of football. So yeah, man, having those dope conversations, Having those insightful conversations is like you said, we want a spot like that. We want to we want to share these would you what you said, humanized conversations to you know, an audience that I feel like can get a lot out of it and laugh with us man, and just be a little ridiculous with us. We can have a long pauses too. That's the beautiful thing about this. We can literally do whatever the hell we want. Zach, you go into Oh.

00:12:58
Speaker 3: We're not even putting it back on. We're just gonna go.

00:13:01
Speaker 2: You just pissed me off.

00:13:02
Speaker 3: We're just rolling with.

00:13:03
Speaker 2: It, all right. What what's happening?

00:13:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, So what's happening right now is we have these arms that are with our mic that are we have him. We have him strapped on the side of the bus, and Zach keeps messing with it and he keeps falling off.

00:13:21
Speaker 2: You know. You you hear a little subtle noises in the background, but Zac's just.

00:13:24
Speaker 1: Filing with this stuff. And it's really pissed me off because he's really only gonna have one opportunity to be on here.

00:13:29
Speaker 2: This is it. I don't know why it's one of the first ones, but it is.

00:13:34
Speaker 3: And I'm holding the microphone stand now because it's yeah, it's just broke. Just handheld date, my nascarb date. Okay, so yeah, my favorite my favorite driver's Dell Junior. Obviously he doesn't race anymore, so I'm still searching for that favorite driver.
