But you know it's greasy. Dude, I was at, where was that? some little area or something the other day in, like, a food area. And they had a fella, and he was selling food, you know, and Mexican food. And he's, like, he puts it on my plate, and it's, like, it was really, like, it had, like, a lot of grease or something. Like, I think it was called Al Pastor or whatever. And it was a new type of meat. Like, 15 years ago, they didn't have it, right? And then 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, like at a restaurant or whatever. If you're over at a, you know, you stop in a little restaurant, a little Mexican restaurant, or you're at an Arby's or so, they'll 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 little, some places they 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'd go after church and we'd all hold hands and read the menu together and, uh, people would yell or whatever at us, but that doesn't matter. Anyway, what am I talking about? Oh, so I was saying, dude, so the guy, he, I'll order the food, the Al Pastor, cause I'm thinking, oh, the pastor, right? This, you know, I'm thinking, yeah i want 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 or whatever uh but it's al pastor it's spanish right and it's and then you see what it means here pastor uh mecca it's popular meccan dish uh meccan dish marinated pork and shaved off it says also shaved off vertical split

shaved off so it's 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'm supposed to do something 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 huh 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 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 from 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 it's windy in here, huh? Like, yeah, like you took the windows out, right? Like if, yeah, 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. They used to not have any windows in there. So you'd be sitting in a car and people would just be in there just cold, just like, oh. And then they put the wind O's in and it stopped the O's and it stopped the wind. So I think for me, it's just kind of like, how has my week been or whatever? It's been, you know, it's been life, bro. It's been life, bro. Sometimes it's like, it's Sal Pastor, 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, it's still an entree, bro. It's still an entree. I'm a second-class meat. I'm a third or fourth-class meat sometimes, bro. But I'm still an entree, baby. gang i'm upstairs amen 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 a stage coach adventure and man that was a time bro you know i got to go on stage at stage coach and you should it's it's in the name of the place right stage coach what do you think i'm expect when I get there, you know?

Thank you.

century cattle culture of Mexico. It evolved from the livestock, roundup, and branding practices of Spanish settlers and their Mexican ranch hands known as vaqueros. The term itself comes from the Spanish verb rodier, 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 vaqueros vaqueros began gathering informally to test their riding and roping skills um impromptu contests between different ranchers and ranches started to spring up many historians point to deer trail colorado hosting one of the earliest competitive cowboy contest in 1864. Vaquero. And shout out CJ Vaquery, who I went to school with growing up. I don't know if it's similar or close. I don't know. But he was a cowboy. I do remember that. I don't know if he rode or not. But he had it in his blood, brother. Praise God. Amen. But yeah, I would like to learn more about the rodeo. I need to get like a rodeo special. Somebody knows the history of it. I need to search for that. Yeah, there's a lot of Latinos in there, a lot of Mexican guys, a lot of Brazilians. Um, a lot of Canadians, a lot of Australians. When you see the lineups at these, uh, at these rodeos, a lot of guys from Utah, Wyoming, Alberta, different places over there. You ever think about how something got its 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 in a cooler just glistening, just glistening. But no, it's actually straight out of Tennessee. 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, white, and do right there. Done. Limited edition. It's a hometown story in a can. Next time you grab a do, 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. That's what they landed on. And honestly, I respect the confidence. You'd have to really believe in a guy to 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 buddies tried 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, out July 1st. If you like Woody, you'll love Dick. go see dick with your family there's genuinely just there's no good way to say that i tried and and here we are tickets on sale now uh when i first moved into tennessee i would go to this coffee place and um and i was trying i was like flirt i was like flirt with the girl that worked there, but bro, I was like, I, I just, I couldn't eat, 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 thing, 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 fundraiser for a boating accident i bought that shit Thank you.

I had so much coffee in my car. I had, like, the stuff from, like, Estonia, Zimbabwe, like, all this shit. Middle East, you know, Madagascar or whatever. I had, like, coffee for kids or whatever. They shouldn't even have – kids aren't even supposed to drink it. And I had, like, two pounds of that in my car. Dude, if I even – I had so much coffee that I bought from this girl just to go talk to her. And at the end, like, 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 that setting is bro and you just put 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-thru 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, am I buying, you know, if I, dude, I had, I had 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'd go sit in my car for 50 seconds. I'd come back in and I'd be fine. I'd be, I could work for another half a day. That's how it was. I was turnt. Vandy, we freaking turnt. Shout out to my boy Diego Pavia over there in Baltimore, man. Blessings to him, bro. Yeah. What else is going on, bro? Let's take some calls. As always, the hotline, 985-664-9503. I got this one right here.

Hey, T.O. It's Michael from Utah.

What's up, Big Mike? Hey, Mike. Onward.

I've been with my girlfriend for about, you know, maybe eight months now. And I love her. I love her, man. And she loves me. And for the whole time we've been together, I've been, I've just been overtaken by all this jealousy, man, of kind of her past. And she's told me some things that, you know, she did before we met that, you know don't don't exactly align with you know where i'm at or where i've been at you know and i've struggled to not hold it against her you know i've struggled to forgive and forget and just accept and love unconditionally you know and i don't know man things just keep coming up i 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 do you think you know maybe what can i do to to just get outside of myself you know to stop stop putting myself in the center of the universe

you know and just love dude 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 international anthem as well So, yeah, I think, you know, there's some things, like, it's easy for me to say, right? Like, I've 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 would hold, like, old stuff against girlfriends. Yeah, I've done that. Like, stuff they can't even, like, you know. People can't do time travel. well, they can't go change something. And so if I'm holding something like that against somebody and I know that they can't change it, then it really says something about me, you know? And I need to make a choice. Do I either want to, 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 past partners or this or that. What are they going to think? I was always like, what would other people think of this girl I'm dating? What would other people think of her? Man, I lost some good opportunities because of that. Now, instead of what would I think? What do I think? And maybe she need, bro, 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 even, did she even want to, like, live in some, like, if she was, like, out and about or if it's a girl and a guy was out and about. Like, maybe they didn't 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 have, like, I'm going to be there for them no matter what. So they don't have to, 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, I don't know. Maybe, I don't know. I don't know if that's crazy to say. I can't, I haven't 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 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. That's 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 oh why I 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 away to an environment they're not sure about they don't you know i'm saying like i'm gonna be i'm gonna be this man that they've been needing so i don't know man i'm not preaching at you 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 or whatever probably bezos or lutnik or whatever but what if the calendar like you'd had a day years ago that wasn't good right or you had a week years ago that wasn't even that good right and what if the calendar just suddenly like made you relive that like life's going a certain way and now the calendar is like oh i'm throwing in 2011 at you it was a wednesday remember that bam and you're like what the fuck this was so long i gotta 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 relationship you know why don'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 wasn't going to work. That's what I wanted. But it's not really what I wanted. What I really wanted

was I wanted it to work. But I was afraid to commit to it. I was afraid to commit to it. So let me keep bringing these old, old things along. Let me keep bringing these old hurdles. But one day somebody will get tired of jumping over those with you, bro. And then you just stand in there with a bunch of old hurdles and shit like just like a pe coach that's out of work that's been you know just using in their car at lunch or whatever and that shit so anyway i don't know if that helps or not bro but man yeah what if we could all be brave enough you know to love the person that we that we love like we know they should be loved right i think that's what i mean but what if we could all be brave enough to do that but praise god bro let's get another one man what we got here

hey theo this is jared from indiana what's up jared and congratulations on your new

Indiana Bears onward

love your show I was just wondering if you've got any advice for 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 it gets hard man you can probably hear him in the background but if you got any advice for me, love you man

oh yeah that loud one, that must be me that must be me bro, the loud one the chatty one back there the one back there selling dime bags or whatever bro, selling QP bro, you know what I'm saying Pushing weight That's me Um But it's a thoughtful call to think about this, especially around Father's Day, 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 kind of have your answers, I think. For me, I think some of it would have just been direction. It would have been like maybe if my father would have put his hand on the back of my neck more. That's like a very fatherly son or parental type of thing. the back of the neck 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 the only way to operate in the world was judgment that was like the currency you know it was like oh I'm gonna judge you that's kind of how I showed affection was through I'm gonna judge you less if that sounds I mean I don't know if that sounds real to anybody or not you think that's

real Halston that's actually really interesting but yeah why do you think that is oh I think it

makes perfect sense because if somebody judges if all I know if all I look if only the only look I see in a parent's eyes is judgment then that's all I'm gonna do of myself and it's all I'm gonna do probably of others especially if it's like an intimate if there's like intimacy or just communication so yeah that's what i did and it's a survival skill that can help you a lot because you're judging things you get really good at judging this judging out not you know i'm saying you're really good but it'll keep you alone too it can anyway so but blessings to you bro happy father's day to you and i'm just thinking out loud too bro i don't know any of this i'm not a scientist um you know but uh but yeah so but blessings to you bro tell little tia i said what's up bro type shit blm i'll see him in the streets boy gang let me see what else we got here

hey tia it's mason i just had a what's up mason thank you for calling brother question for you you know i kind of just wanted to see what you thought about it what you you know caught a little wisconsin there boy you know or illinois maybe onward do uh the other day i walked into a gas station and there was a man who clearly had down syndrome um he didn't look the oldest oh yeah the ops and he was 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 and he actually turned to me like, sir, what do you think of this? And, and I, I don't know if I should feel bad, but I told him it looked good. And he sold the clearly underage man with Down syndrome alcohol. And I'm just wondering if I did the right thing, what you do in that situation. Uh, thanks for you. Yeah. Yeah. Of course, of course, dude, if

a guy has 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'd 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 as sugar in the it's a lot of it's sugar based why do down syndrome people love beer oh it just shows a picture of ireland so county cork specifically but dude it's like i think i don't i believe look if somebody has Down syndrome, or if they might have it or whatever, I think you got to let them drink, bro. That's the type of place I'm from. You know, I 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 had a guy who had, I don't know what he had. He had something pretty strong. And we'd send him, we give him 50 60 dollars go in there bro one time bro this kid damien dude and bro one time we 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 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 You 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 them cook. You know what I'm saying? I say let them 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 like that, as long as y'all aren't, you know. Plus, people want to feel included. Buying beer is kind of like a ritual when you're underage. I'm not saying, you know, I'm not sitting here condoning it. Don't do it. I got to say that for legal reason. But people do it. You know, even down-centered people do it apparently. So whatever, bro. You know, he probably, he might not even have down-centered. He might just live too close to a data center, bro. You know what I'm saying? He might be all hopped up on data and shit. You know, little Ricky's on that data. so let's take another call here speaking of data centers actually hi my name is amy tompkins what

i would love is if theo vaughn 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 like smack dab in the middle of these two innocent beautiful creatures on god's planet these evil ghouls are coming in and destroying the air the water the environment you know the the earth everything that we have i mean these animals are already in a zoo okay and now they're going to come in and 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 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 have any friends actual that are that are ever like hey ai what do you how's they you know 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 brother they got too much data now what happens the kid you know the kids playing at school or whatever and he falls in a 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 a bit much but it's like you know and what how does that even work they got a data leak at the factory now he's at your kid you know little ricky's got a bunch of data stuck in his leg or something you know 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's 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 dude nobody wants it and the people that want them to me bro they seem kind of evil it's like what's gonna happen you know you you fall down and you get a bunch you know a bunch of loose data flies out of the factory or something now and your kid's got you know he's got five episodes of uh 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 believed it 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 gonna it's all i think gonna be i believe this is my hypothy, uh, theory that they're going to all, it's all going to be locked in with, uh, these flock 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

all going to be locked down. Everybody, 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 will it won't ever really but it's to try to become like our new God, right? Because I think people go to God for their feelings, for help, for hope, right? They lay their faults at the feet of Jesus for hope, right? And you're going to have to appease somehow. You're going to have to do well enough for the data center to grant you whatever you then need right does that sound crazy alston no so that's why they need because what does anybody thought what what data do they we already have like we're sharing pictures 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 it is in the clay what do they need it's a they're asking for a lot of suddenly they need that's a lot of space to just 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 is that aren't humans start to take over society. And we're seeing the repercussions of that. And 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 a liar, bro. Anyway, I'm not trying to preach on it. I think some of it just makes me mad. And it's scary. They're putting it by a zoo. It's like they're rubbing it in our face. You know what I'm saying? Because a lot of that is showing 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 data or whatever now he's got a concussion and he you know he just he's just stuck singing spotify lyrics you know just a bunch of data he's just sitting there you know reciting just larry fleet and the castellos and luke bryan and morgan wall and deep cuts. It's like, it just, it's, you know, I don't know, bro. I don't know what's going to happen, man. Um, and some girl today, she said, and when, when do we stand up? When do we, it's a good question. I don't know if there's some, there must be

something attractive in us just watching our demise. Like we're like, I don't know. I if that makes any sense um oh i do want to get the president of mexico on here um miss claudia scheinbaum 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 on um just to learn i want to learn like about like uh the mexican-american relationship from the from a mexican point of view from a leader their 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 has got the most flock cameras, bro. Um, yeah, speaking of it, speaking Speaking of, also just going back real quick to the data center, the company behind 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 Bain Capital Credit. Owned by Alternative Investment. Jonathan Levine, John Wright. Firm-wide strategic direction is steered by managing partners David Gross and chairman such as Steve Pagliuca and Josh Bekenstein. This is all AI overview. This is from Google AI. Atlanta-based DC Blocks proposed building a 24-acre two-building data center campus at 648 Grasmere 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 nashville metropolitan council passed an initial temporary moratorium that seeks to restrict larger scale data centers from being built within a half mile of homes um bro the thing is that most of the most of the uh flock cameras now i saw one the other day just saw one the other day over there about a donat shop bro i was giving me a couple donats bros a little depressed at night i pulled up over there and they had some kids over there milling around but

i waited in my car about seven eleven minutes bro waited till they their mom came and picked them up because i just didn't want to be embarrassed bro and then i walked in there got me a couple donuts bro and uh and on the way out i saw a flock camera i was sitting in my car eating donuts to get seeing the flock but atlanta's got the most bro let me see flock group incorporated doing business as flock safety is an american manufacturer and operator of security hardware and software particularly automated license plate recognition video surveillance and gunfire locator systems bro dude i what i i saw a video 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 gonna you know because a lot of like gangs they they they own certain territory but now these flock cameras are coming and saying they own it so that's you know i'm saying that's the battle we gonna see soon bro flock versus the block bro so that you know i'm saying because otherwise they're gonna have surveillance on what all of these bangers bro i'm curious bro ain't no blood ain't no cripping because of flock dang bro it's gonna be interesting man um let's take another call we got enough we got a lot of

Hey, Theo. This is Charles Holland, Chuck Holland.

Hey, Charles. Hey, Chuck.

From good old Orlando, Tennessee. I'm a certified Wigga. I am doing work on the new Titans Stadium right now. I just want your thoughts on that. what do you think about them building this new stadium and what do you think about the old one not going to be there no more anyway I just like your thoughts on that amen brother

thanks for the call dude I think my thoughts are simple I like the old stadium I liked it I'm kind of a romanticist I like you know I like old schooler stuff traditional stuff a little bit I think it felt a little bit more like the city It felt a little bit more comfortable. The more you could just pull right up, you were right there. The new one, it just feels like it's taking 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 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 what I'm saying? It's black and white to me. Just like, 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. Sometimes I worry that Nashville's just becoming more of like a tourist destination than it is a place, like a home. But then I don't 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 that felt like a little bit more like a i like that old f-150 bro that's the you know in my heart my heart's an old 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 type shit blm bro and wlm you know you You about both. All right, one last call, man.

Hey, Theo. This is Nate calling you. Yeah, I'm just feeling really grateful this morning.

started that it could happen um no man because you know i i drank for quite a few years uh all through my like 20s and into my 30s and um i just kind of figured it's just like i'm just gonna keep drinking. And then one morning for me, it was 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. And once you quit that,

once you went to meetings of, did you believe that it would be done or did you,

I mean, it's, 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 it raw and it's just so rewarding um 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 and 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 just becoming a better man every day so um did i think it would yeah no i didn't but here here it is and this is going to keep going so amen bro
