#664 - Crooners Welcome

Wow, it's with your Fourier in the third step.

A couple of years after the high school. You don't have to live like that, I just want to. Stream up on the 13th April, parallel to the U.S., I really want a new episode. That's a problem.

And you have to deal with it. There's no way back. Before I go outside, I have to go home on the dragon and wake up. All of a sudden, two hours and ninety months. Streaming, but not so, wow.

I want to share with you that you can now officially buy or rent bus boys, the movie on Apple, Amazon Prime, video YouTube and Fan Dango at home.

You can also go directly to busboysmovie.com for a 48 hour rental there.

And if you want something special, they got a DVD, it's limited edition. Only a thousand of those exist. And you can grab those at busboysmovie.com as well. And thank you David Spade for letting me just go on that adventure with your champ.

Amen. All right. I was going home, maybe. It's greasy. But you know it's greasy.

Dude, I was at, what was that? Some old low area or something the other day in a, like a food area. And they had a fella and he was selling food, you know. And a Mexican food.

And he's like, he puts it on my plate and it's like, it was really like, like,

had like a lot of grease or something.

“I think it was called out past door or whatever.”

And it was a new type of meat. Like 15 years ago they didn't have it, right? And suddenly it's like on the meat when you look at the meats or whatever on the section on the menu, or sometimes they put a menu like up in the air at a, like at a restaurant or whatever. If you're over at a, at a, you know, you stop in a little restaurant or a little Mexican

restaurant or you're at an, uh, or b's or so don't have on the menu. They have a menu up in the air, where everybody can read it at the same time. Because some places, if it's a, someplace that give you your own menu and some places they want everybody to read it together, uh, like group reading or something, you know, my family and stuff.

Sometimes we go after a church and we all hold hands and read the menu together. And, uh, people would yell, f***, it's or whatever, at us. But that doesn't matter. Anyway, what am I talking about? Oh, so I was saying dude.

“So the guy, uh, or the food that al past store, because I'm thinking, oh, the pastor, right?”

This, you know, I'm thinking, yeah, I'm going to connect with the pastor. I don't know. We just come from church. I'm thinking like it's a, it's a religious thing. You know, I'm going to order, uh, al pastor, whatever, uh, but it's al past store.

It's Spanish, right? And it's, and then, you see what it means here, al past store, uh, making a, as popular Mac and dish, uh, Mac and sin dish, marinated pork and shaved off. It says also shaved off vertical split shaved off. So with this is something that's, you know, it's shaved off.

But anyway, the guy puts it on the plate and he's like, oh, it's, it's greasy, you know? And it had like a lot of grease in it. He's like, man, it's really greasy. And he's looking at me like, like, I was who said do some like, I just bought it from you. He's, he's acting like, like, I made it, like, greasy or something.

I didn't make it greasy. You served it to me. He's like, man, it's really greasy, all. It's greasy. I'm like, yeah, it's greasy, bro.

It's greasy for sure, but like, I didn't want it like that. And then I went and ate it, I'm sitting there eating it and, uh, and he looks over at

“me from behind the counter, like, man, it's greasy, huh?”

And I'm like, yeah, I mean, you made it. You knew it was greasy when you give it to me. But it's crazy. That's like, say you buy a car for me. And then before you come get it, I take all the windows out of it and shit.

And I'm like, man, it's, uh, it's windy in here, huh? Like, yeah, like, you took the windows out, right? Like, if, yeah, um, yeah, it is windy. It shouldn't be, but you know why it is, right? Like, that was the thing.

And, bro, some people don't even know that windows, they put them to stop the wind, right? People don't even realize, because people were sitting in a car.

So you'd be sitting in a car and people would be in there just cold, just like, oh. And then they put the wind hose in and it stopped the hose and it stopped the wind.

“So I think for me, it's just kind of like, how was my week been or whatever?”

You know, it's been life, bro. It's been life, bro. Sometimes it's like, it's sound past door, bro.

Sometimes it's greasy, you know, sometimes it's just, life's just a second class meat, bro.

It's a second class meat. And that's okay, bro. You know, it's still a, uh, it's still a on-trade, bro. It's still a on-trade. I'm a second class meat.

I started a fourth class meat sometimes, bro. But I'm still on-trade, baby. Gang, I'm upstairs. Hey, man, bro, good to see you guys today. Good to be here. It's been a while, bro.

Since we checked in on a solo episode, um, we had stage coach. I hadn't checked in with y'all since we had the head of stage coach adventure. And man, I was a time, bro. You know, I got to go on stage at stage coach.

“And you should, it's in the name of the place, right?”

Stage coach. What do you think I'm expecting when I get there, you know? So, um, but y'all got to go on stage out there with, uh, missella Langley and Boateves. I felt like a mountain line out there.

At first, I was like, really nervous, you know, because I had to do my lines, but when I got out there, I did a couple lines, and then I looked around. I said, "Dang, I'm a mountain lion." And that's how I felt.

I was just, I don't know. It was just like, you know, it was just like the lore was just tossing chunks of magic to people to, and I called one. That's what I felt like it was pretty, uh, yeah, it was pretty,

it was, it was an amazing experience just to get out, uh,

I'm not a singer, right? I'm not a singer by nature, right? If you ask me to sing, bro, it's greasy.

“You feel me broke, that's how it is, bro.”

That's how it is with me. But I am, I did realize this, bro. I'm a crooner, bro. I'm a crooner, let me see what a crooner is. Crooner, plural.

A crooner's a male singer who performs sentimental songs, and jazz standards using a smooth, low and highly intimate voice, bro. That's me. Because the song, it was just like a singer might be like,

and this is what it's all about.

But the crooner, bro, he just comes in at the end, where he touches up. He's like the kind of guy that does the bass boards in your house, right? He don't do all the painting, baby, but he'll come in.

And just, whew. You feel me, it's like, it's a magical time at the county fair. And then the crooner comes in and he's like, at the county fair. You feel me, that's him.

So that's me, bro, you know what I'm saying? I'm not the singer, I'm not the painter, I'm not doing all that. I'm not doing the art to touch her, I'm not doing all that. But when they come in and they need that doll

get the end just to him. ♪ Ooh, do you know ♪ You hear all those? That's called "Stare Step Vocals". I'm trying to give another good popular song.

♪ Fly me to the moon ♪ Something from this jet from the past 700 years. Sorry, sorry, you know what I'm saying, but that's something like, 'til you can, like, here's one, like, ah, 'til you can't. 'til you can't, 'til you can't.

That's Cody Johnson, like, 'til you can. And then I'll come in, like, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm. ♪ 'til you can't, I push that octave further ♪ ♪ 'til you can't ♪ So I don't do all this singing,

I just come in and do that bassboard, baby. That's where they bring me in, bro. I'm that low, long monster, you feel me? I'm in a swamp, bro. They don't know I'm down there,

and then I hit 'em with that, baby. I hit 'em with that trace, that can, baby. I'm that basement, bad boy. You find me in the bottom of your lungs, baby, girl.

And that's in 'em a cruner, right there, middle singer who performs sentimental songs and jazz standards using smooth, low and intimate voice, bro. So they got me out there, bro. But thank you, Miss Langley, for having me out,

and that was a special time out there. And I'm glad everybody got to see it.

It's scary to do something for the first time

in front of a lot of folks. That's when I'm realizing. So what else? Yeah, what else do we have? Thank you guys, thank everybody for this paying attention,

being a part of this podcast, and this experience. Love you guys, bro. Let me just say that. And yeah, what's happening? What else is going on since we lasted a solo?

Oh, I got the people thought I was gonna delete myself. I don't know how you can share that or whatever, say online. That was people were saying that was going around. And that's a crazy thing to have going around, bro,

because, you know, 'cause then when you see people,

they think you are ghosting shit, you know?

“Some black folks was like, oh, you want your ghost shit?”

Now, Uncle, I ghost on, and I'm like damn ghost, bro. Chill, bro, chill, bro, chill, bro. Bro, yeah, that was crazy, dude, 'cause I didn't even know that this had been happening. And then people were like, you know,

I'll get a text from a step family and they're like, is everything okay, you know? And then some of the texts from other people started escalating, like, uh, damn, remember when you was here, bro, dang,

it wasn't so long ago, 'cause, you know, put a picture of us. And then make it black and white, bro. Like, I'm like, dude, that picture is from four days ago. And they put black and white and put a couple of doves on it, bro.

And then they throw a stud out there, bro.

You know, I wish I had heaven, had a phone to call you, uh, just some of the texts you get, bro. I was like, do with everything that's happening, can I borrow your truck? And I'm like, what do you mean with everything

that's happening, bro? And then they would put like a coffin and then a truck emoji. I'm like, wow. I'm like, yeah, you can, bro.

But it don't have any windows. You feel me, it's breezy, it's breezy in there. Oh, man, bro. So, yeah, just grateful to God, bro, that we continue to rock and we do it.

“You know, so that's what's going on, bro.”

What else? Oh, I got to go to the rodeo, man. I've actually been a two rodeos since I last did a solo episode. I've been over there to Franklin, rodeo.

And I've been over there to the music city, rodeo. Both of them beautiful. And you see a lot of these rodeo babies. These are cowboys and cow girls that are out there. You know, I mean, you know, they had who do we see?

But we saw rockers, diners out there. Wakey Shala out there. And wakey Shala, he broke a limb out there. And broke a limb. Lefty Holman, he was out there.

Shorty Garrett, shorty Garrett. And you think it's going to be a brother and it ain't. Sam Peters and man, I got to meet his chat with him. Just get to be around these fellow, man. Cade Sonia, Sonia, Sonia, Sonia, Cade Sonia out of Louisiana out of the Louisiana out

at a Karen Crow. You're a man, bruh. And they had another rider out there at Baker, Louisiana. I can't remember the name, but I got to walk in the locker room and all of the um. The rodeo people are there and the clown.

He's happy when he's out there. But in the back, he's putting on duct tape and he's stitching his own skin up. Because he's out there battling bulls. You know? He's out there.

He's taking his front lines against the dark animal arts out there. But yeah, they got all the all the riders, every name they're almost injured, bruh. The names that they have, man. The names that they have, they're almost, you can tell they're almost going to be maybe going to be injured or something.

“They'll be, you know, they'll have shorty lefty, uh, broken, uh, Richardson, right?”

Pelvis, uh, shatterford, you like Pelvis, shatterford, bruh. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Somebody get him a diaper, bruh, get him an adult diaper, bruh. Lacerated, um, arm-legged, and that's, he's, he's riding a day wheel chair, Montgomery, bruh.

Crutches, uh, Johansson. He's over there.

Yeah, they just, you know, that dish is just, everybody's only cusp, but getting injured

out there. Because these, I look as dangerous what these guys do and these girls, they're warriors. They're out there. They're warriors out there with Anna Mayo, you know, I love it. I love it.

Dude, let us get right on the back of, uh, they let us get right on the back of the shoots. You know, and who was out there dusty, right? Can you look at it for me? Is it the right brothers?

Now, not the people that flew over there out of Kitty Hall, come talk about the y'all. Uh, these are, yeah, this is some of them right here, stets and rusty.

“I think there was only two of them, maybe they were there.”

But dude, dude, boy, they some young bangers, bruh.

They some young bangers, man. Some warriors are going to get a few of them in the podcast, uh, at some point. But just to get to see where right up on the shoot and, and they were doing bearback horse, but also brunk. Can you, let me, let me, let me look up what brunk is, brunk riding.

What is brunk riding? Runk riding is a classic rodeo event where a cowboy attempts to ride a bucking brunk, know, a bucking horse, AKA a brunk for eight seconds while holding onto a single rain with one hand. Oh, that's like trying to give you, you X, Y for hug if you have it there at Applebee's

or whatever. Say you're meeting up for you. You have a duel. You have a child that you co-parent, you're meeting up over there, rips are dawns, you know, or Applebee's or something.

And you try to hug X, Y for spoof. That's the new rodeo right there. Hugging X, Y for brunk.

“She ain't letting you stay on there for eight seconds, she ain't letting you stay on there”

for two seconds, bruh. Unless you get that check, you know what I'm saying now, that was my mother, but she made my dad sit in a car if he didn't have that money. You sit in a, we going inside the, you sit in a car. There's nothing more authoritative, there's nothing more authoritative, bruh than when they

haven't, somebody hadn't paid that alimony or whatever child support. But anyway, yeah, that's brunk riding a classic rodeo event right there. And my favorite part of rodeo, I'll say this is the barrel rotters, it's barrel racing, I think. And Miranda Lambert does it, she does it as a hobby.

Oh, if you're listening, I'll put some, I'll put some video on the episodes. You can see it. You can see them ladies.

And when they hit that third barrel and they had him back, brother, please get this, let

bro, let's go. Just singing your heart out, you know, just for some potential lesbian, you know, just who's given it or all out there. Um, praise God, baby. Uh, but yeah, I was right up on the shoot, man, I'll write up on the shoot.

And some of the animals, man, it just, like to imagine the first person that ever saw a bull, whoever saw a bull, he probably, he probably went right back to his friends and he said, hey, look, I saw this cow and it's not real happy. I saw a cow, this cow is not real happy.

“And some of the bulls, I was on the shoot and some of the bulls, low key bro, see my little”

bit, zesty bro, you know, one of the bulls is like, hey, can you fix my air for me, you know, I was like, I don't have any lotion or anything. He's like, I'll just use your hands, bro, it's greasy, you know, because I've been jumping around. And one of the bulls straight up told me he's like, bro, like having young men on my back.

I'm like, what? I'm like, who do I report this to, dude? He's like, yeah, bro, like having these young men on my back. For a little bit. He's like, but I get so excited that they fall off.

I'm like, bro, bro, bro, this horse needs to be in the F-steam files, bro. But man, rodeo is a grace for and there's something for the whole family, man. And you can sit there, you can enjoy yourselves, get you some peanuts, bro, get you a little bit of water, a little gatorade or something, some beer or something homemade, bro, bring you a little devil egg, bring you a little DE out.

If you've been keeping one in your pocket with a little piece of ice and air to keep it cool, what I want to say, the history of the rodeo, then we'll get into some calls. We have some calls that came in. I just want to learn about the rodeo and I want to have a specialist on to talk about the rodeo.

The rodeo originated in the 16th century cattle culture of Mexico. It evolved from the livestock roundup and branding practices of Spanish settlers and their

The term itself comes from the Spanish verb rodeo, meaning to encircle or roundup.

The transition from ranch work to competitive sport took place in the American West following the Civil War during cattle drives and roundups, cowboys and Vakgaros, Vakgaros. Up again, gathering and formerly to test their riding and roping skills. Impromptu contest between different ranchers and ranchers started to spring up. Many historians point to dear trail Colorado hosting one of the earliest competitive

cowboy contests in 1864, Vakgaro, and shout out C. J. Vakgari, well, I want to school with growing up. I don't know if it's similar close. I don't know. But he was a cowboy.

I don't know if you rode or not, but he had it in his blood by the praise God. Amen. But yeah, I'd like to learn more about the rodeo. I need to get a rodeo special. Somebody knows the history of it.

I need to look search for that. Yeah, there's a lot of Latinos in there, a lot of Mexican guys, a lot of Brazilians, a lot of Canadians, a lot of Australians. When you see the lineups at these rodeos, a lot of guys from Utah, Wyoming, Alberta,

“and places over there, you ever think about how something got it start?”

Like Mountain Dew, for example, I always thought it just kind of appeared one day, you know,

just like a stork brought it from a beverage, universe or something. And then somebody saw it just sitting a cooler, just glistening, just glistening. But no, it's actually straight out of Tennessee. Do you know that? It's a real place, real people, it was two brothers working tirelessly to nail that citrus kick that we all know and love.

It came from folks with grit and independence doing things their own way and somehow they bottled that. That attitude's still in it today. You hear that? That's attitude.

Still bold, still unmistakable, still do. It's an American original that's been tasting great since 48, 1948, Red Whiten Dew, right there, done, limited edition. It's a hometown story in a can. Next time you grab a dude, just know, it's more than just a drink.

It's an American original Mountain Dew tasting great since 48. They got a new minion now. His name's Dick.

“And I know how that sounds, but that's the name, is what they landed on and honestly,”

I respect the confidence. You'd have to really believe in a guy and name him that and put him up on the big screen. He's got one eye, he's got one eye too, yeah. Which I feel like if you've only got one eye, you've earned whatever name you want. Nobody's going to argue with him, what are you going to do?

Look him in the eyes, he's got the one, he already won. Anyway, he's in a movie, him and his buddy is trying to make a monster picture and the whole thing went sideways. And now there's real monsters loose in Hollywood. What happens next, you just have to get a ticket and see.

The film's called Minions and Monsters, Al July 1st. If you like Woody, you love Dick. Go see Dick with your family, there's genuinely just there's no good way to say that. I tried and here we are.

Like it's on sale now when I first moved in to Tennessee, I would go to this coffee place.

And I was like flirt with the girl that worked there, but I was like, I just, I couldn't need like, I was nervous, right? And so I was nervous to flirt with her.

“But anyway, I remember she'd be like, well, do you want this with your coffee?”

And I would just take whatever extra things she's like, yeah, you want the foam on it, cold foam fur, whatever they put on it, I'd be like, yeah, I'll take, yeah, give me a little bit. Cinnamon, you want, yeah, yeah, you want cinnamon, dude, I would leave out of there with like extra cinnamon, like in a little to go, like just like, I'd have like a $27 coffee in

there, dude, I had, I was buying all the roast from her, she had like Ghana, the missing person roast or whatever that they came out with for that kid or whatever, I bought the um, I bought the boating at like this stuff, they did a fun reason for boating accident, I bought that shit. I had so much coffee in my car, I had like the stuff from like Estonia, Zimbab, like the

all this shit, middlely, you know, Madagascar or whatever, I had like coffee for kids or

They shouldn't even have kids or anything supposed to drink it. And I was like, I had like two pounds of that in my car, dude, and if I even, I had so much coffee that I bought from this girl, just to go talk to, and at the end, at one point, if I even got in my car and I cut the heat on, dude, it would just be like, it literally was turning into like a roaster in my car, and if I did the thing where you close the, so you don't get

any outside air conditioning, you know, just like to smell myself type of whatever you that setting is, bro, and you just put it, dude, it was, I would cut that on, I'd be awake for one month, couldn't, couldn't close, there was so much coffee in my car, I remember going through a drive through one time and somebody's like, oh, are you selling coffee? And I was like, fuck no, what are you talking about? I'm just hitting on someone without some of the skills

to do it. What do you mean do you, my bank, you know, if I, dude, I had, I have so much coffee, bro, if I even went and sat in my car, it would wake me up, people would be like, dude, are you tired, or whatever? I'm like, yeah, I am, I'm just going to go, I go sit in my car for 50 seconds,

“I'd come back in, and I'd be fine, I could work for another half a day, that's how it was.”

I was turned, then he, we freaking turned. Shout out to my boy Diego, pop you over there in Baltimore, man. Blessings to him, bro. Yeah, what else is going on, bro?

Let's take some calls. There's always a hotline, 95, 6, 6, 4, 9, 5, 0, 3. I got this from

right here. Hey, Theo, it's Michael from Utah. Was a big Mike, a Mike, one word? I've been with my girlfriend for about, yeah, I'm maybe eight months now, and I love her, I love her, man, and she loves me, and with the whole time we put together, I've been, I've just been overtaken by all this jealousy, man, kind of her path, and she's always some things that she did before we met, but you know, don't exactly align with, you know, where I'm at or where I've been at, you know, and I struggled

to not hold it against her, you know, I struggled to forgive and forget, and just accept and love unconditionally, you know, and I don't know, man, things have keep coming up, keep hearing things, and kind of just hurts, and I know I'd probably do it to myself,

“but I'm just asking for maybe a little bit of your advice, man, what are you thinking?”

You know, maybe what can I do to get out of my thoughts, you know, to stop, stop putting myself in the center of the universe, you know, and just love. Do that's a great question, man, wow, what can I do to just love, bro? Man, if every, if we, if that was our national anthem, man, I bet we would all be in a different place, or especially our internationally anthem as well. Um, yeah, I think, you know, there's some things like it's easy for me to say, right? Like,

I, I made some mistakes in this realm, man. I was jealous, you know, I kind of created unrealistic

expectations for people that they could never live up to, you know, and I, and I would hold

like old stuff against girlfriends. Yeah, I've done that. Like, stuff they can't even like, you know, how people don't can't do time travel. They can't go change something. And so if I'm holding something like that against somebody, it's, and I know that they can't change it, then that's, it really says something about me, you know, and I need to make a choice. Do I either want to, can I not, can I really not live with it? Or am I just afraid of like what other people will think?

You know, if I date somebody that's had like different like a past, responders or this or that, what are they going to think? I was always like, what, what would other people think of this? Girl, I'm dating. What would other people think of her? Man,

“and call, I lost some good opportunities because of that. Not instead of what would I think?”

What do I think? And maybe she need her. Maybe what if it's like, hey, I'm going to, I'm going to be the person. So you don't have to, like, I wonder, does she, did she even want to like live in someone like if she was like out and about or if a, or if this girl in a guy was out and about like, maybe that it even really want to be living that way? And maybe now you're like this,

thing, you're this person, you're the finally this person that's going to be like,

I'm going to make sure they don't like, you're like, I'm going to be there for them no matter what so they don't have to, they, they don't ever have to like put themselves out there like that again. They're going to be fulfilled, right? They're going to know that I'm here for them. You know,

had success doing that, but I'm just thinking, man, what if, what if we were like, what if we were the kind of boyfriends that it was like, oh, I'm not going to be like that. I'm not going to hold your passing at you. I'm going to, I'm going to make sure that you have somebody that's going to be right there. You know, I'm going to make sure you don't ever have to live that way again if you don't want to, that you don't have to operate in these

certain circles if you don't want to. You know, I don't know as tough dude. I was, yeah, I wasn't

good at it, man. I would just be like, because it gave me something always this little like,

this little extra card of like, a while can be upset, right? It gave me a chance to have one foot out of the relationship. That's the truth. That's the truth, bro. But imagine if you could be like, I'm going to be the person this girl doesn't ever have to worry again. They don't ever have to worry if they're going to have somebody's going to be there for them. They don't ever have to like give themselves a way to an environment that they're not sure about. They don't, you know, I'm saying,

like, I'm going to be, I'm going to be this man that they've been needing. So, I don't know, man, I'm not preaching that. I'm just thinking out loud. What if the calendar did that to us, right? What if the calendar, and I don't know who owns the calendar, whatever, probably days,

those are luck, and that's whatever. But what if the calendar, like you'd had a day, years ago,

that wasn't good, right? Or you'd had a week, years ago that wasn't even that good, right? And what if the calendar just suddenly like made you relive it, like life's going a certain way, and now the calendar's like, I'm throwing in 2,000 and 11 at you. There's a Wednesday,

“remember that. Bam. You're like, what the fuck? This was so long. I got to do this. So that's kind”

of like kind of what I was doing when I was acting like that. I was like, what about this old thing, this old day, this old relation? You know, won't we live that shit again? Why don't we go through that shit again? Because I didn't want I really didn't want there to be enough. I wanted a reason that this one going to work. That's what I wanted. But it's not really what I wanted, but I really wanted was I wanted it to work. I was afraid to commit to it. I was afraid to commit to it. So let me keep

bringing these old old things alone. Let me keep bringing these old hurdles. And well, but one day, somebody who gets how to jump and over those with you, Brian, then you just stand in there with a bunch of old hurdles and shit, like just like a PE coach that's how to work. That's been, you know, just using in their car at launch or whatever. And that's shit. So anyway, I don't know if that helps or not, bro. But man, you know, what if we could all be brave enough? You know, to love the person

“that we love, like we know they should be loved, right? I think that's what I mean, but what if we”

can all be brave enough to do that? But praise God, bro. Let's get another one, man. What we got here. APO. This is Jared from Indiana. What's up, Jared and congratulations on your new Indiana bears. Oh,

love yourself. I was just wondering if you've got any advice or a man who never had a father

and now he's trying to raise three boys. The youngest one's one and I named them after you. I love everything you do. I just, I don't know, I want to be the father that I never had. But sometimes a gay gay gets hurt, man. You probably hear him in the back, but if you got any advice for me, - What do you mean? - What do you mean?

- Oh yeah, that loud when that was V-Me. That was V-Me, bro. The loud when the chatty went back there, then went back there selling dime bags or whatever, bro. selling Q-P, bro.

You know what I'm saying? Cushing weight, that was a destiny. Bro, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a,

it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, It's awful called to think about this, especially around fathers, they just to think, like, you know,

“I think what I would do, I would write down the stuff,”

maybe that you feel like you didn't get. And then you'll kind of have your answers, I think. For me, I think some of it would have just been direction.

on the back of my net more, that's like a very,

fatherly son or parental type of thing, the back of a net. And not even not looking at your children with judgment. You know, I was looked at with judgment a lot, mostly judgment. In fact, probably 250% judgment.

“So that's how I learned that only way to operate in the world”

was judgment that was like the currency, you know. It was like, oh, I'm going to judge you. That's a kind of how I showed affection was through, oh, I'm going to judge you less. If that sounds cry, I mean, I don't know if that sounds real to anybody

or not, you think that's real, Holston? That's actually really interesting. But yeah. Why do you think that is? Oh, I think it makes perfect sense because if somebody judges it,

if all I know, if all I look, if only the only look I see

in a parent's eyes is judgment, then I told them to do it myself. And it's all in the do probably of others, especially if it's like an intimate, if there's like an intimacy or just communication. So yeah, that's what I did. And it's a survival skill that can help you a lot because your

judgment thing, you get really good at judging this. Judging out, not, you know what I'm saying? You get really good. But it'll keep you alone too. It can, anyway.

“So, but blessings to you, Brad, happy fathers day to you.”

And I'm just thinking out loud, too, Brad. I don't know when you're this. I'm not a scientist, you know, but yeah. So but blessings to you, Brad, tell Lothia, I said, what's up, Brad?

Type shit, BLM, I'll see him in the streets, boy gang. Let me see what else we got here. Hey, CL, it's Mason. I said that. What's up, Mason?

Thank you for calling, brother. Question for, yeah. I kind of just wanted to see what you thought about it, what you-- you know, cut a little with scants in there, boy. You know, we're Illinois, maybe onward.

Do, the other day I walked into a gas station, and there was a man who clearly had down syndrome. He didn't look the oldest. Oh, yeah, the ops. And you're trying to buy some beer.

And I kind of read the situation and knew what was going on. But the clerk actually, he could tell he didn't know what to do. And he, you know, he kind of looked at it, he actually turned to me. Like, sir, what do you think of this? And I don't know if I should feel bad.

But I told him that look good. And he sold to clearly underage man with down syndrome, alcohol. And I'm just wondering if I did the right thing, what you do in that situation. Thanks for your pay off, gang guy.

Yeah, but, of course, dude, if I got a down syndrome, give him a fucking drink, give him a break man. Cut his work hours a little bit. Like, yeah, dude, I remember when we were growing up, if a guy down syndrome, you give him a beer, you bring him.

You even get some beer from inside. If your dad wouldn't give you a whole can, you come and just give him and just let him just drink it out of your hands. Brother, like, you got to support people. You know, people with down syndrome love to drink beer,

because I think it has sugar in the, it's a lot of it's sugar based. Why, boo down syndrome, people love. Oh, just shows a picture of Ireland.

“So county court specifically, but, dude, it's like I think I don't,”

I believe, look, if somebody has down syndrome and if they might have it or whatever, I think you got to let him drink, bro. That's the type of place I'm from. You know, almost had it, I was on the ropes and I think you got to let people cook if they have it.

And yeah, dude, when I was growing up, we would get a, we had a guy who had, I don't know what he had. He had something, something pretty strong. And we'd send him, we'd give him $50, $60, go in there, bro. One time, bro, this kid named me and dude.

And bro, one time, we'd give him the money to go in there. And he fucking went out the back, dude. He went out the back and ran up there to a senior center and broke down a bunch of the wall art and the windows in there. So, you know what I'm saying?

We never got our money back, though.

But the shit I'm talking about is like, you don't know what's popping, bro. You don't know what's popping. So, I don't think we should hold somebody back from having a good time. I do think the underage thing. But if somebody has down syndrome, bro, I say let him cook.

You know what I'm saying? I say let him cook, bro. But yeah, I mean, should you feel bad about it? I don't know, I mean, as long as y'all aren't making fun of the guy or doing something

him beer as I kind of like a ritual when you're under age.

I'm not saying, you know, I'm not sitting here condone yet. Don't do it. I gotta say that for legal reason. But people do it, you know, even down syndrome people do it apparently. So, whatever, bro, you know, he might not even have down syndrome.

He might just live too close to a data center, bro. You know, I'm saying him up, he might be all hopped up on data and shit. You know, little rickies on that data. So, let's take another call here, speaking of data centers, actually. Hi, my name is Amy Topkins.

What I would love is the Siovan could talk about or even mention the fact that a Georgia company is building an AI data center right next to the Nashville Zoo and right next to an elementary school.

So, I smashed the app in the middle of these two innocent, beautiful creatures on God's

planet. These evil rules are coming in and destroying the air, the water, the environment, you know, the earth, everything that we have, I mean, it's animal that already even do. Okay, now we're going to come in and do this to it. So, it's like, I'm just trying to do whatever I can to bring attention to this.

Amen. Thank you for calling. I agree, bro. Now, the thing is, they got data everywhere. I'll say this, dude, on behalf of everybody that's human and has a heart, fuck AI, bro.

Fuck AI. I don't know if any friends, actual, that are, that are ever like, hey, hey, I'm saying nobody's doing that shit. We're already fine.

We can already order our food fast enough.

We can already watch a movie if we want on our phone, like, we don't need anything else. I don't know who else needs more shit. I don't want any data, bro. They got too much data. Now what happens?

The kid, you know, the kids playing at school or whatever, and he falls in a f*cking, they got a puddle of data outside of the data center or whatever, and he's got a bunch of data and shit on his shirt or whatever, you can't, you know, he's got a bunch of, like, love island episodes that won't come out, you know, stained up for sure, especially the new season, bit much.

“But it's like, you know, and how does that even work?”

They got a data leak at the factory. Now he's at your kid, you know, Little Rick, he's got a bunch of data stuck in his leg or something. He's got a bunch of fucking maps of, like, from the 1300s or whatever, or he's got a bunch of Epstein files just stuck in his spinal column or something, because of the, you know,

the data. He just got email stuck in his scanner, whatever, you know, it's just like, we don't want any data, bro. We don't want any nobody wants a data center, do nobody wants it. And the people that want them to me, bro, they seem kind of evil, it's like, what's

going to happen? You know, you fall down and you get it, you know, a bunch of loose data flies out of factory or something now and your kid's got, you know, he's got five episodes of, of Dutton Ranch or whatever, stuck in his neck or something. It's gotten crazy.

We don't want it. Nobody wants the shit.

“And so here's what I think I really believe this.”

I think I really believe it. I don't know. But I believe that yesterday, I believe that some people know how to live forever. They've cracked the code. And so suddenly, they have to put the rest of us.

They have to lock us down. They have to. Because if everybody finds out about it, then everybody's going to be able to do it. Right? There's got to be some people have to take like have to separate themselves.

And I think this is how they're doing it. They're creating these data centers. It's all just going to, it's all, I think, going to be, I believe this is my high-pothory that they're going to all, it's all going to be locked in with these flat cameras or some company like this.

Palantir. One of these companies is going to be owning all of this information. They're going to put it all in. It's all going to be, we're going to be locked now. Everybody's, you're not going to be able to live or do anything that feels human.

Right? There's going to become this kind of score, this sort of like social and even emotional sort of credit score. And then AI is going to become, it won't ever really, but it's going to try to become like our new God.

Right?

“Because I think people go to God for their feelings, for their, for help, for hope, right?”

They lay their, their, their faults at the feet of Jesus, for, for hope, right? And it's all, you're going to have to like appease somehow.

you then need, right?

Does that sound crazy, Alston?

No.

“So, that's why they need, because what, does anybody thought, what, what, what data do they,”

we already have like, we're sharing picture, we're sharing phone. We all have video in the cloud like we all have this stuff that, you know, there's millions of episodes of different movies and all that is in the, what do they need? It's a, they're asking for a lot of suddenly they need. And it's a lot of space to this need data everywhere.

So, yeah, it's unbelievable, bro. It's unbelievable. I could talk more about it. I would love to know more people's thoughts about it. But I don't give a fuck about it.

I don't see what it's going to do for us.

I don't understand to be human.

I think we've let a lot of tarantulas that aren't human start to take over society. And, uh, and we're seeing the repercussions that in some of us, we didn't let it happen. But I believe that, yeah, the devil is alive, bro.

“The devil is alive and the devil is alive, bro.”

Um, anyway, I'm not trying to preach in it. I think some of it just makes you mad. And it's scary. They're putting it by as you, it's like they're rubbing in our face like, you know what I'm saying?

Because a lot of that is, this is so, so, so in control. They're putting it by a school or whatever. Some kid, you know, he's on, he's like, he's on the swing set and he just hits his head like there's some data going through the air or whatever.

And he hits his head on some fucking data or whatever.

Now he's got a concussion. And he, you know, he just stuck, he just stuck, he just stuck, singing, spot a file there. And she, you know, just a bunch of data. He just sitting there, you know, reciting, just Larry Fleet and the castal hose, it looked Brian and Morgan Wall and Deep Cuts is like, it just, it's, you know, I don't know, bro.

I don't know what's going to happen, man. In some girl today, she said, and when do we stand up, when do we, it's a good question. I don't know, there's some, there must be something attractive in us just watching. Our, like, we're, like, I don't know, I don't know, I'm not makes any sense. Um, oh, I'll do want to get the president of Mexico one here.

Um, it's Claudia Steinbaum, uh, I will come to Mexico City. I want to come down there, um, so I would love, yeah, I would love to get the president of Mexico one, um, just to learn. I want to learn, like, about like, uh, the Mexican-American relationship from them, from a Mexican point of view, from a leader there, point of view.

Not, you know, I just want to learn more. I think it would be exciting. And, um, so this is my beacon for that, you know, I'm trying to speak what I would like. And, uh, yeah, I would love to know, like, how, how do our laws, like the laws that we make here?

How does that affect things that happen in Mexico?

“What are like the truths about cartel stuff in Mexico?”

I would love to know about, um, like, what are some of like the big long-term goals of Mexico? Just things like that. It's interesting because I don't ever, I don't ever learn about it. I probably could, but it would be nice to learn in person.

Um, so that is, um, something I would like to, I'd like to have that opportunity if you would grant it to me. Amen. Um, what else? Oh, yeah.

Eight, bro. Let's talk about Atlanta. Atlanta's got the most flock cameras, bro. Um, yeah. The, uh, speaking of, speaking of, uh, also just going back real quick to the, um, data

center, the company behind, uh, the Nashville Zoo data center, the one that's near there, allegedly is DC blocks. So let me look at them, who owns DC blocks, primarily owned by post road group and main capital credits owned by alternative investment, Jonathan Levine, John Wright, um, firm wise strategic direction to steer by managing partners David Gross and chairman, such

as Steve Pegglewka and Josh Beckinstein, Beckinstein. Um, this is all AI overview. This is from a Google AI at Atlanta based DC blocks proposed building a 24 acre two building data center campus at 648 grassmere park. That's unbelievable, dude.

I go drive over there all the time. I go to a meeting that far from there. Um, unbelievable, the Nashville Council, the National Metropolitan Council passed an initial temporary moratorium that seeks to re-strict larger scale data centers from being built within a half mile of homes, um, bro, the thing is, the most that it most had a, uh,

flock cameras.

right?

“I was giving me a couple of Donuts, bras a little depressed at night.”

I pulled up over there and had some kids over there milling around, but I waited in my

car about seven, eleven minutes, broke, waited to date. You know, my mom came and picked them up as hard as they want to be in Paris, bro. And then I walked in there, got me a couple of Donuts, bro, and, uh, and on the way out, I saw a flock came out sitting in my car, you know, let's get seeing a flock. But Atlanta's got the most bro, let me see, flock grouping incorporated, doing business

has flocked safety is an American manufacturer, an operator of security hardware and software, particularly automated license plate recognition, video surveillance and gunfire locator systems, bro. Dude, I, I saw a video of the other day, it was like the block versus flock, bro. And it was a lot of gangsters and bangers out there in the streets and, uh, and what they

were thinking of flock cameras, man, because that's really where it's going to, you know, because a lot of like gangs, they, they, they, they own a certain territory, but now these

flock cameras are coming in saying they own it.

So it asks, you know, I'm saying, that's the battle we're going to see soon, bro, flock versus the block, bro.

“So it, you know, I'm saying, because otherwise they're going to have surveillance on”

what all of these bangers, bro. I'm curious, bro. Ain't no blood ain't no crippling because of flock, dang, bro. It's going to be interesting, man. Let's take another call.

We got a lot of calls that have come in before we do that. Here is how you, what you can do is a citizen to oppose the Nashville Zoo, data center. So you can sign the petition on change.org titled Nashville Zoo says no to propose data center. Okay, great.

And we'll put the link to that in here. We'll put it in here and on YouTube information. What does the $7 big deal meal get you at Sonic? The real question is what doesn't it get you? For to $7, you score a classic Sonic cheeseburger, medium fries or tots, a medium drink

Let me just do one more call here. Hey, Theo, this is Charles Hollen, Chuck Powellen, hey Charles, hey Chuck, you know, or Linda Tennessee, I'm the certified wivv, I am doing work from the new Titan Stadium right now. So I would just want your thoughts on what you think about them, build this niche stadium and what you think about the old one that you want to be there no more.

Anyway, I just like your thoughts on that.

“Hey, man brother, thanks for the call dude, I think my thoughts are simple.”

I like the old stadium. I like it. I'm kind of a romanticist. I like, you know, I like old school or stuff, traditional stuff a little bit.

where you could just pull right up, you were right there.

The new when it just feels like it's taken us to a new and bigger place and I know that's where the city is headed and I know I'm just a transplant here. So take my, I'm part of the problem, you know, so I take my thoughts with a grain of salt,

“but I'm just saying that's how I feel, bro, you know, from one dub to another, bro, you”

know I'm saying this black and white to me, just like a, bro, you feel me, bro, just like you, bro, you feel me cut. I just like that smaller feel it felt it fit a little bit more. And I was worried that natural just becoming more like a tourist destination than it is a place or like a home, but then I would do, I don't know, you know, I don't have a family

right now. I don't have those other elements that give it that. So those are just my thoughts, but that's how I feel, but at the same time, bless you boys for staying over there and building it. And I'm curious to see, yeah, this part of me is curious to see what it looks like.

But yeah, I don't know, there's something I felt like a little bit more like a, I like that no F-150, bro, that's like, you know, in my heart, my heart's, you know, is it probably like an 88 F-150, bro.

So I like something that would match with that.

I like that old stadium right there. But thank you, brother, praise God, stay safe, bro. Like shit, be a lamb, bro. And WLM, you know, you, you bow, both. All right, one last call, man.

Hey, feel, uh, this is Nate Callen, yeah, um, here, I'm just feeling really grateful this morning. Uh, hey, man, brother, thanks for the call, Nate. Onward. Five years ago today, I will come up hung over for the last time.

And, man, I'm, I'm just a better man than I ever, ever imagine I could be. Um, yeah, I was just like learning to live in the moment, be present. Be right here, deal with my shit, work through my problems, um, yeah, feel free to sit here today. And I'm just feeling free, man.

I'm feeling really, really free.

“I don't know if it is calling with some happy five years, you think?”

I'd be great.

Yes, you reach Nate's hand, um, you mean, uh, message, and I will give you a call.

What's up, Nate? Uh, it's Theo, uh, from the podcast here, you hit the hotline the other day. I just wanted to call him when she happy five years, man, um, thanks for this sharing with us, you know, uh, just the positive energy, um, the possibility, you know, like just the, uh, the promises that you said that they talk about in the program, that like, you

know that, um, that the old stuff will fall away that you will, hey, what's up, man? Hey. What's up, bro? This is Theo. Is this Nate?

Yeah. This is Nate. What's up, bro? I heard you're, uh, voicemail on the hotline, and I just wanted to, uh, just wanted to call him wish you, uh, happy five years, dude, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, uh,

we're on the podcast right now, but I can, I can keep it off, uh, either way, but I just wanted to call him wish you happy five years, bro. Oh, no. That's cool, man. Keep it on.

Yeah. Thanks. Thanks a bunch, man. Big deal for me. You're real happy.

I'm actually out walking on a date with my wife right now, and let's go, y'all take walks, huh? Well, you bet. Yeah. I like that.

We went out for some. Went out for some supper. Now we're out on a walk. Got the five. We got five kids off.

Kids are at home. Cause my oldest is 16 and can pay now and watch on me. Yeah. Let's get brother. Bro, supper and a walk.

Y'all must be rich, huh? Uh, we're rich, but we get out and get off. Yeah. We got to get out and keep knowing each other. Dude, that's a big deal.

That's a great point, bro. Dude, I love taking walks. I invited a girl on a walk. Not even too long ago. Yeah.

Yeah. She kind of bailed the day off. But that's life, bro. What you going to do? You know, so none of you just got to fight.

You gotta keep. You gotta keep finding somebody who wants to walk, bro. Straight. Straight. Some day, you'll find the one that a keep walking with you forever.

I got that one, son. Hey, man, bro. Amen to that dude. Yeah. Well, um, we don't want to bug your whole job, man.

But I just want to say thank you, bro. It was nice you to call and share that, uh, just that milestone. Um, just that fact that it can happen for people. And, uh, and just sharing about some of the promises that can come true, man. Um, like, yeah.

“Did you believe it when you started that it could happen?”

Um, no, man. Cause then I drink for quite a few years, uh, all through my, like, one season into my 30s.

And then one morning for me is different than for a lot of folks, I think. Like I woke up one morning. And I was like, man, that's it. I'm done. But once you quit the once you went to meetings of did you believe that it would be done or

do you. I mean, it's, it was hard, right? I mean, it was really, really hard. Like, yeah, I, it seemed like, you know, you'd get 30 days and then you'd get 60 days. And you get 90 days.

It's like, man, I'm never going to have a year.

And then all of a sudden, you blink your eyes and it's five years. And you don't even think about the, you don't even think about what you're, at least for me. I don't think about what I'm addicted to anymore. It's just like, I'm just, like I said, I'm just sucking life through the tailpipe.

You know, it's just like I'm living at raw and it's just so rewarding. And free, free feeling.

“Whereas before it was like, you know, I mean, I think we have a lot of things in common”

where it's like, my mom wasn't great to me. I was growing up and I was, I was running from a lot of different things. And here I am, you know, not running from anything anymore. And you just become in a better man every day. So, um, did I think it would, yeah, no, I didn't, but here it is.

And this is going to keep going. So, hey, member. Well, tell your wife that we said, hey,

and thanks for putting up with you and putting up with anybody.

And, uh, and congratulations, bro. Yeah, thanks, Bill. I appreciate it. And I appreciate you. Thanks for sharing your life with everybody.

And, you know, the honest stuff. Because that's where people grow when we're honest with each other. And we just kind of have some vulnerability. So, I appreciate that about you. Yeah, thanks, man. Sometimes I get scared to share that stuff.

I feel like it's like, I don't know. I feel different ways about it sometimes. But I don't know how else to be sometimes. You know, that's the weird thing. Yeah, you got to be you.

“And I think that's a beautiful part of you.”

So, don't, don't ever let that go, man. Well, thanks, bro. I appreciate that. Aw. Yeah, bro, one day at a time, man. That's it, right?

Yeah, one day at a time. Hey, member. Enjoy your walk. Congratulations, bro. And, um, talk to you soon.

Yeah, thanks, brother. I choose, man. Yeah. Bye. Dang, bro.

That's awesome, bro. I don't know walk with his wife. Hopeful. I mean, it sounded hopeful. You know, possible.

Get to home, have some kids over there. Things can be okay. Nothing's perfect. But things can be okay, right? So.

Anyway, I don't know what we're doing.

“But we're going to keep trying to do it.”

And, uh, that's, that's about all I got today, man. I got to run. I got to meet my friend over there, get a little snack or something over there. And look at, um, my friend has a new, uh, they're selling, um, my friend's selling a picnic table over there.

So I'm going to go put a bit in on it. Uh, what else? That's about it. So, you guys be good to yourselves, man. Thank you for paying attention.

Um, I had fun, bro. I think I've been scared sometimes. I was doing solos. Um, but I had fun today. And I hope we can do this again sooner.

And, um, yeah, just thank you guys.

The hotline is always nine eight five six four nine five zero three.

Uh, house and thank you for your patience today. Thank you for, uh, rolling with the punches of life, serving us a little grease with the technical problems. Hey, bro, you will say, it's breezy. That's how it is.

Bro, you think it's going to be smooth and it is. Bro, it's smooth, bro, but it's breezy. Uh, praise God, bro. Be good to yourself. You deserve it, baby.

Now I'm just thinking on the breeze. And I feel I'm falling like these leaves. I must be calm and stoned. Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this piece of my life out.

I can feel it in my bones. Though it's going to take.
