Speaker 1
Wait, I'm with your granny now? Is that what you're doing? I'm trying to set something up here. I think you're barking up the wrong tree here.
You think so? I do. I really don't.
I don't know,
Speaker 1
you want to be tired of them before they're tired of you. Let me tell you a story about the Beatles.
Oh, goodness. All right, I'm all here for it.
Speaker 1 Hi. How are you? Bell.
Speaker 1 I'm Haile.
Speaker 1 Nice to meet you. Hi, Selassie.
Speaker 1 How are you? I'm good. How are you? Well, thanks for coming.
Speaker 1 Thank you for having me.
Speaker 1 I'm sure you should be nervous, but you don't seem like you are. Eh.
Speaker 1
You shouldn't be. You're going to have the best time.
I'll try.
Speaker 1 Well,
Speaker 1
you're 21. Yep.
Okay. So
Speaker 1 listen, something extraordinary happened to you, and you have an extraordinary opportunity.
Speaker 1 And if you pay close attention today, you will come out here
Speaker 1 really with a lot of knowledge of how to handle this because it's very unique what happened to you. Two amazing things happened in the last month.
Speaker 1
There was an assassination attempt and one brave billionaire's earlobe will never be the same. Yeah, you're exactly right.
Bless his org.
Speaker 1 And
Speaker 1 you,
Speaker 1 two things that are like completely out of left field.
Speaker 1 I mean, you must feel like
Speaker 1 What was that bit somebody had about like, you know, you ever seen one of those little bugs that roll up when they feel and then you. Oh, the rolling polis? Yeah, and then you like shoot them.
Speaker 1
Yeah, you just like blick them real hard and must wake up like to them like a thousand miles away. Yes.
That it's kind of like what happened to you. You're exactly right.
You're exactly right.
Speaker 1 That's what it feels like, right?
Speaker 1 That's a good way to put it.
Speaker 1 But
Speaker 1
You for whatever reason now, I'm not a religious person. Maybe you are.
That's what makes a horse race. We're all different.
But you seem nice. So like we're all happy for you.
Speaker 1
Well, don't be like, you know, if you were, if you came off as some sort of an asshole, people would be like resenting. Yeah.
You know, oh, why is she suddenly famous? She's an asshole.
Speaker 1
But, you know, like every kid, especially your age, wants to be famous. And like suddenly they just, the sword came down and tapped you on the shoulder again.
He said, you're it.
Speaker 1
Not from God. That doesn't really exist, but you make your own decisions.
I'm not going to lead you astray to the dark side.
Speaker 1 And
Speaker 1 so it's like you were given this amazing chip
Speaker 1 and you can now trade that chip in. Fame is like a huge chip that you were just given.
Speaker 1 But
Speaker 1 The key thing now is like, for what?
Speaker 1
Right? Yeah, for what? So this is why you should be listening very closely today because you're going to get a lot of good advice on that. I have a feeling.
I don't know.
Speaker 1
I never know what I'm going to say because I'm always high when I do this. I understand.
You're 21, right?
Speaker 1
We can speak freely. Fair enough.
And it's legal. Yeah.
We're not doing anything wrong. Exactly right.
Speaker 1 I would, of course, advise always using any sort of substance responsibly.
Speaker 1
And in moderation. Do you do that? Yeah.
I'm pretty responsible with it.
Speaker 1 Well,
Speaker 1 sometimes, unless I'm at CMA Fest in Nashville. Why? Is that where you said your thing?
Speaker 1
Oh, yeah. We were drinking all day long.
Okay.
Speaker 1 So here's the first thing,
Speaker 1 now that I think about it,
Speaker 1 that we have to do.
Speaker 1 What made you suddenly famous?
Speaker 1 Nothing to be ashamed of.
Speaker 1
But now we have to move past past that. I agree.
Haley.
Speaker 1 What's your last name? Wilt.
Speaker 1
I knew that. I was testing you.
That's okay. I had to sound out your last name, Arley.
Speaker 1 I don't expect you to know me.
Speaker 1 Most of the country does, bitch, but
Speaker 1
you're young. You will.
You'll get there.
Speaker 1 That doesn't matter. What matters now is move past, let's call it your origin story.
Speaker 1 And like, you know, it's very much like the Kardashians.
Speaker 1 You know, origin story from comic books, right? Oh, yeah. Okay.
Speaker 1 So what's the Kardashians' origin story? They started out before all the plastic surgery and everything else, didn't they? Now, what's their origin story? What put them on the map?
Speaker 1 I'm not up to trends. I had to figure out who you were today.
Speaker 1
I'm so serious. I don't keep up with anything.
You're 21. You're not supposed to.
Speaker 1 I'd be disappointed if you did.
Speaker 1 But someday you will. Someday you'll be calling me and say, Bill,
Speaker 1 you know, I'm really getting caught up on the Middle East. Can you tell me? And I'll tell you.
Speaker 1 But right now,
Speaker 1 no, it was a sex tape.
Speaker 1 You don't know?
Speaker 1
It was Kim's, wasn't it? Yes. Yeah.
So you do know this. Okay, I do know.
Okay.
Speaker 1
I know that's what like started it all for them, though. Absolutely.
And they're very nice people. Oh, yeah.
Chris has sat right in that seat. She said,
Speaker 1 what? She's been right here. Many people have.
Speaker 1 Even people you know.
Speaker 1 But yes,
Speaker 1 they're wonderful people. They're just very nice.
Speaker 1 The only thing you can get them on is the Kardashian story.
Speaker 1 It's as if Spider-Man became Spider-Man because he blew a spider.
Speaker 1 You know,
Speaker 1 it's kind of the same thing, isn't it? Yeah.
Speaker 1 So, like your origin story is haqtua it's cute but we must now move forward be uh
Speaker 1 very circumspect in how we allow people to how long we let them play that out and you got to play a little hardball with this and
Speaker 1 you know be you know insist on haley and uh
Speaker 1 And that's why it's important also to figure out your next step.
Speaker 1 So
Speaker 1 will probably come out just during the course of this conversation.
Speaker 1
It's better if it just happens organically. I find in my mentoring life.
Your mentoring life?
Speaker 1 Yes. It is what it is and it's now the next thing
Speaker 1 because there's like so much I would love to know about being a 21-year-old girl. Like what? I mean, first of all,
Speaker 1 I mean, you know, you're adorable, you're cute.
Speaker 1 It's just
Speaker 1 the way of the world. I mean, you got the world by the balls when you're
Speaker 1 what?
Speaker 1 Okay.
Speaker 1 But like,
Speaker 1
your day-to-day before this happened was like working in a, where'd you work? A spring factory. A spring factory, right.
It wasn't nothing bad, though.
Speaker 1
It's not like a normal factory you hear anything about. Like, it was really laid back.
I enjoyed it there. Yeah, but it's still a fucking factory.
I mean, yeah.
Speaker 1
I mean, they got the bills paid. That's all that mattered.
I didn't mind getting up going to work every day. Which is better, that or now you're in show business?
Speaker 1 Come on. Show business.
Speaker 1
It's kind of fun. It's a reason everybody wants to be in show business.
Oh, yeah, it's laid back.
Speaker 1 It's more fun than the spring factory. What did you do all day? Well, so I was over quality and shipping, but I didn't have to do quality unless somebody else like in that department wasn't there.
Speaker 1 I hated it. You sit in a chair all day for eight hours and like test springs that come out of the grind room.
Speaker 1
It drove me fairly insane because I hate sitting still that long. It kills me.
Then why'd you just tell me it wasn't so bad? This is why I'm sorry. I didn't have to do it but once in a blue money.
Speaker 1 Now the shipping part, I didn't mind it because I get to get up and run around all day. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 1 So like whatever customer orders, like however many they want of this and this box and how many of these boxes, I got to put it all in a box and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 And I was learning how to ship them out when I left.
Speaker 1
It really wasn't that bad. I swear it wasn't.
No, I understand. And there's nothing wrong wrong with that kind of work or any kind of work.
Speaker 1 People need to have jobs and it's it's great if you have a job like that that you find fun gives you character. But I'm
Speaker 1 maybe a little too much. Yeah, maybe.
Speaker 1 But I bet you in 10 years
Speaker 1
you'd have been kind of over it. Yeah.
But you may have moved up by that time. You know, that's you could have been the whole head of spring USA.
Yeah, 10 years from there.
Speaker 1 If I worked for there,
Speaker 1 like for 10 years, like you're saying,
Speaker 1 I'd probably been over it. So, and this is in where Tennessee?
Speaker 1
Yeah, I can hear the accent slightly. Slightly? No, I love a southern accent.
Well, thank you. I like the south.
I mean, I always tour in the south and enjoy it.
Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, don't we?
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 1
Horrible food. I mean, I try to eat.
I mean, all food in America is horrible anywhere. It's not just the South.
But,
Speaker 1 no, I bring my own food. I can't eat.
Speaker 1 You really bring your own food? Well, I only go for two days at a time. So, like, yes, I can bring enough of my own food.
Speaker 1
I get one meal in my dressing room after the show that you can make sure that they prepare something fairly clean. And decent for you to eat.
What do you like to eat? I need to know. Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 Let's talk about what we like to eat.
Speaker 1 Well, what I like to eat and what I do eat are two different things. I mean,
Speaker 1
you'll see when you get older, you can still look awesome like this, but you're on a short leash as far as health. You feel me? So you eat your greenies.
Well,
Speaker 1
that kind of. I got you.
I eat my greenies too. That kind of stuff.
Oh, really?
Speaker 1
That's my favorite food to eat, like a vegetable. Is your favorite food? Well, that's rare.
Yeah.
Speaker 1
It's like a chopstick. What do you mean? What do you mean? Oh, you're...
I got chopstick legs. I eat my veggies.
That's good. I love my veggies.
America's too fat. Yeah.
Way too fat. Just a little.
Speaker 1
No, a lot. And it's unhealthy and it's not cute anymore.
Yeah. I mean,
Speaker 1 but yeah, so this is, yeah, people like in LA, this is fairly normal. But in America, you walk around like this and I'm sure they say, like, are you anorexic? Yeah.
Speaker 1 I mean, I said, you're like, no, you're fit.
Speaker 1
That's what you're supposed to look like. Yeah.
They just want to make everybody else feel bad.
Speaker 1
Because America's so big. That's what I'm saying.
Yeah. I like how you think.
Speaker 1 so that their fat ass feels better being
Speaker 1 anyway um
Speaker 1 so i eat pretty um
Speaker 1 ling
Speaker 1 yeah
Speaker 1 i mean
Speaker 1 it's purity of food is more important than like meat versus i'm not a vegetarian um
Speaker 1 you know maybe um what is that
Speaker 1 somebody asked me this every week uh and every week i say i'm roofing myself.
Speaker 1 It's something to give flavor to sparkling water so you don't have to have diet soda, which has chemicals in it, apropos of our conversation about
Speaker 1
eating clean. Even my soda is fucking clean.
That's okay. Even your tea was clean.
Even my, well, no. All liquor is poison.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 What are you drinking? Ahanoon.
Speaker 1
What the fuck is that? Okay, hear me out. I don't like seltzers at all.
I think they're disgusting, but I actually like these. They're pretty good.
They don't taste like sparkling pitch.
Speaker 1
I don't even know what that is, seltzer. It's just, so it's non-alcoholic.
Oh, it is. It's got 4.5%.
Speaker 1
Oh. But it don't taste like piss water.
It's 4.5%
Speaker 1 alcohol.
Speaker 1 And so it's like a wine cooler?
Speaker 1 I guess you could say like a watered-down wine cooler is what it tastes like.
Speaker 1
Like this one's black cherry. Like white claw.
Is that the same kind of thing?
Speaker 1
Kind of, but I don't like white claws. White claw? White claws.
White, what? White claw. White claw.
White claw.
Speaker 1 White claw. White claw.
Speaker 1 Exactly. How do you say oh?
Speaker 1 Huh? O.
Speaker 1 What word do we say? O-I-L-O.
Speaker 1 O-I-O.
Speaker 1 Oil is how that's pronounced. O.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 1 Okay. I'm going to rule out network news anchor for you.
Speaker 1 But I do think broadcasting,
Speaker 1 because you have already a platform.
Speaker 1
You know what it is? I think I can tell them like the weather or something. I got it already.
No. What do you got?
Speaker 1 You need to do a podcast. You do it right here on Club Random, if you do it my way.
Speaker 1
Sex expert. And I'll tell.
No, I'll tell you why. Wait, wait, wait.
I'll tell you why. Because you need to, when you're, I told you you were given this chip.
You were given the chip of fame.
Speaker 1 Now you want to trade that in for something that
Speaker 1
uses that, but takes it to the next level. You have to like trade on what you're already known for.
That's the one thing you're known for.
Speaker 1 So you could do a podcast for, like, I don't know if there's anything
Speaker 1 from somebody that age with that point of view but it couldn't be frivolous you'd have to take it seriously
Speaker 1 could you do that possibly and talk about sex but seriously serious issues because there are a lot of really serious issues i mean you know there's one that's related to what made you famous yep
Speaker 1
What? What am I going to say? You have no idea what I'm going to say. I don't know.
I don't know where this is going. I'm kind of.
I'm going to tell you where it's going.
Speaker 1 You learned that thing about spitting from porn
Speaker 1 that's where that came what you did maybe not directly but trust me like that the idea of spitting
Speaker 1 first of all it's gross it's not necessary it never existed before porn do you know that do you realize that yeah and porn is not benign it is not and it has warped the minds of the kids in your generation especially the guys yeah they come up with some sick shit yes people are just yeah no they i know they are people are fucking sickos and you know whatever
Speaker 1 floats your ark but whatever floats your arc your ark
Speaker 1 you know i i visited once uh
Speaker 1 it's in your state um it's the like museum the Holy Land Museum, I think they call it.
Speaker 1 You've never been there where they have the statue, the
Speaker 1 Jesus riding a dinosaur?
Speaker 1 Do they really?
Speaker 1 Well, they believe that Jesus lived on the earth at the same time as the dinosaurs, which is really stupid. You think dinosaurs are real? Did you graduate high school? I did.
Speaker 1 And do you think they taught you anything?
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 1
Yeah. I mean, I know a few things about numbers, but other than that, nope.
Right.
Speaker 1
It is the saddest thing. It is.
They don't teach you anything you need to know about life. I worked at a gas station for three years and learned how to write a check there.
Speaker 1 Our school didn't teach us that.
Speaker 1 Not just about life, but like we used to actually learn subjects,
Speaker 1 you know, like history and civics and science. And so you had a knowledge of things so that if you went out with sophisticated people, you could carry on a conversation.
Speaker 1
I mean, they have left you kids high and dry on the side of the road, like an abandoned puppy. Yeah.
It's just terrible. But you know what? We're going to get you up to speed.
Speaker 1 Yes, the sex expert show.
Speaker 1 That's a good start. But again,
Speaker 1
can't be giggly. It can't just be laughing at silly stuff.
I definitely would.
Speaker 1
You would? I definitely would. I'm not a serious person.
I'm not saying you can't enjoy yourself,
Speaker 1 but okay, then we can't do that.
Speaker 1
Okay, that's out. That's out.
That's definitely out. That's too bad.
Because I'd be sitting there going,
Speaker 1 old Tom.
Speaker 1 It's too bad because
Speaker 1
that would be a good thing because people, again, already know you from something sexual. So they're like, they would go with that.
And then we could transition from that
Speaker 1 to something
Speaker 1 more broadly.
Speaker 1 But again, we got to get away from Hawk to Haley.
Speaker 1 And we got to get away. We got to get to something new.
Speaker 1 So.
Speaker 1
All right. Look, we'll come back to it.
Okay. We'll come back to that.
But,
Speaker 1 no, you know, your generation is so different than mine.
Speaker 1 For example, mine had parents.
Speaker 1 Yeah, fair enough.
Speaker 1 Wait,
Speaker 1
wait, is that a personalized joke? A personalized joke. Okay, we're not using the word personalized correctly, but you get what I'm saying.
Is that a joke?
Speaker 1
I do get what you're saying. Anytime I correct you, it's only for your benefit.
It's because you love me, right? It's true. All right.
Speaker 1 It's only because I want you to be better. Anyway,
Speaker 1 no, I was just,
Speaker 1 I just never, you know, rarely you meet somebody your age who isn't at least from a divorced family.
Speaker 1 I mean, the parents who stay together are just few and far between. So many of them,
Speaker 1
I mean, weren't you raised by your grandmother? Didn't I read that? Okay, there you go. Oh, yeah.
That's why I'm so mannersome.
Speaker 1 Like, if you go out that door, I'm going to open that door for you. You don't find that very often.
Speaker 1 You're going to open the door for me? Yeah. That's manners.
Speaker 1
I mean, that's beyond manners. I mean, well, usually women don't open the door for men, but I mean, if that's where you want to go.
Well, I'm different. Knock yourself.
I'm a little difficult.
Speaker 1
I had a man open the door for me. I can get it myself.
Could you also move my barbells up to the attic if you got a minute? Your barbells? I don't know how heavy are they.
Speaker 1 Let me get back to you on that.
Speaker 1 But so your grandmother raised you huh she did and where is your mother
Speaker 1 oh on the street doing crack somewhere really hmm
Speaker 1 fuck
Speaker 1 the way these people just have kids and then get in a cab yo they say peace she gone so what's your relationship with your mother now i still don't speak to her is she better Is she not on crack?
Speaker 1 I wish I could say no. But you don't know? I don't keep up with with her i couldn't even tell you where she's at really and she doesn't try to find you
Speaker 1 no nope i'm fine with it that way well i've done this long without her i don't need her now yeah good for you never have because i got my granny girl your granny yeah and she raised you but how old are you and you're not married 68 never been 68 how do you feel about an 80-year-old woman
Speaker 1 Oh, how do you feel about that? If you only knew the first thing about me.
Speaker 1
What's the first thing about you? Well, then I wouldn't be right. I'm not going to call you Paw Paul or nothing, but hey, I'm trying to throw something together.
Absolutely.
Speaker 1
Paw Paw. Is that like Tennessee for daddy? No, that's like Grand Pappy, you know.
Oh, I see. I might call you Grand Pappy, but I ain't going to call you Paw Paul.
Speaker 1
So she... Grand Pappy Bill.
She raised you.
Speaker 1 And
Speaker 1
your father? He's here. He's here, where? What's here? Like here, he's here and there.
He's always worked a whole lot, but I don't live with him.
Speaker 1
He's worked a whole lot. Yeah, he works a lot.
But does, but didn't raise you? He did. Oh, he did.
Speaker 1 He lived with you and your grandma?
Speaker 1
Like, I go stay with him every other weekend and stuff like that. Oh, so he was in life.
I just lived with a grandma. So he was in your life.
Yeah. You're not mad at him.
No.
Speaker 1
Just the mother. Yeah, we despise that woman.
Right. Very badly.
Speaker 1
Well, you know, who who can blame you? Yeah. I mean, you only get one mother.
Yeah. So if that one.
She's got a good soul, I guess you could say, but she's just, I guess she, how can I put it?
Speaker 1 She got in the wrong crowd.
Speaker 1
If that makes sense. She has a good soul.
She's just.
Speaker 1 Ah, hell who am I kidding? Fuck her. We ain't worried about her.
Speaker 1
We're not worried about her. Yeah, I think that's the right attitude.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 You have a very healthy attitude about that, which, you know, not everybody does.
Speaker 1
You were dealt a shitty hand. You could feel sorry for yourself, but I see.
You won't. No, that's great.
Speaker 1
And, you know, you could be bitter and talking about I'm a victim. And, you know, we're all victims to different degrees.
No, I'm not going to come out.
Speaker 1
Oh, my mama's a crackhead and just crying about this. No.
Right. You're not going to get that out of me.
Right.
Speaker 1 And later on in life, if you want crack.
Speaker 1
I know who to go to. You know, that's the way you got to look at it.
Come on. There's always a positive.
Especially wouldn't be hard to find her. Mama, you got some crack.
Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 Of course we're kidding about that. She wouldn't share.
Speaker 1
Right. Crackheads, they're not rig shared.
I like Superman. Well, they're not rigg sharers.
No.
Speaker 1 It's an addiction.
Speaker 1 But that's good that you're,
Speaker 1 you know, you can let yourself be mad.
Speaker 1
Mad is better than sad. Oh, yeah.
You know, mad is strong. I mean, not too, obviously you could take that too far.
You don't, you know you don't want to like
Speaker 1 i don't know shoot a president's ear off no you don't gotta worry about that um i'd probably shoot my own foot off or something before i got to that yeah do you have guns you're from tennessee your moth i mean all my family does i don't really fool with them much i'm telling you i'm not coordinated i'd blow my toes off like i don't i don't need a gun right yeah
Speaker 1 where do you live where do you live now you still live with granny It's an hour, maybe an hour and 10 minutes, if that, south of Nashville.
Speaker 1 Is it out in the boonies like if you go down there there there there ain't nothing you would not eat there there's no way you would i am familiar with america in that way yeah not that no i mean i'm not saying i'm the guy in deliverance in the woods squeal like a pig i'm just saying
Speaker 1 i checked out your i just know that like outside when you especially in the south and the midwest when you get an hour outside of the city you are really outside of the city it's not like where i grew up in new jersey where it's the city and then the suburbs.
Speaker 1 So it's, it's, it's, they, of course, have their own despising of each other for silly reasons.
Speaker 1 You know, Long Island thinks the people in Manhattan are snobs, and the people in Manhattan think the people in New Jersey and Long Island are the bridge and tunnel crowd. There's a lot of that.
Speaker 1 But it's not like,
Speaker 1 you know, the people in Atlanta and Nashville are
Speaker 1
pretty much like everywhere other when you're in a city. They vote mostly Democratic.
They're more liberal.
Speaker 1 But yeah, you get an hour outside and, you know, it is, it is deliverance time. I mean,
Speaker 1 it's, it's, it can be really just different. And probably
Speaker 1 I think they would be friendly unless you provoke them. Yeah.
Speaker 1 But
Speaker 1 do you know what Appalachia is? Mm-mm. No, you never heard that word?
Speaker 1
You live in it. Like the Appalachian Mountains? Yes.
Is that what you you mean? Well, there's a section of the country. It goes, it traverses about, I don't know, six or eight different states.
Speaker 1 It goes all the way from, I think, western Pennsylvania down through parts of Maryland, certainly Kentucky, Tennessee,
Speaker 1
where else, West Virginia. That's Appalachia.
And it's known for, I mean, for lack of a better word, hillbillies. Yeah.
Speaker 1
I understand. Yeah, people who drink moonshine got into meth.
They're damn good people, though. You ever met any hillbillies besides me? Woody Harrelson.
Who's that? Who's that?
Speaker 1
Oh, that makes me feel better. You don't know Woody Harrelson, do you? I don't.
Really? Woody Harrelson?
Speaker 1 That is time.
Speaker 1 What a ravager. I mean, man.
Speaker 1
I don't know anything. I'm just kind of here.
I know. That's cool.
You're not supposed to. It's not on the test yet.
In a year. Yet.
Speaker 1 Well, you know, you don't want to wait too long.
Speaker 1 Another great bit of advice, I think, for anyone your age is when you're 21,
Speaker 1
it does seem like the world and the time ahead of you is limitless. It's an ocean of time.
It goes pretty quick.
Speaker 1 You don't want to turn around, which happens like that, and you're 30 and you still haven't like made a start with something.
Speaker 1
Unless you just want to get married and have babies, which is perfectly okay. I don't want to do that.
You don't want to do that. This is my prime time.
Speaker 1
Right. Like, I want to get out there and have some fun, you know.
Right. I see different shit.
That's what I'm doing right now. This is my first time.
Speaker 1
I'm still doing it at 68. So you're preaching to the converted about that.
Yeah, there you go. I never understood that.
I was like, wait, there's a fun phase of life. Let's just keep doing that phase.
Speaker 1 Yeah. So instead of these going to these phases of, oh, now we're married and now we have children.
Speaker 1
Have you been married? I told you I was never married. Never? Never.
You got any kids? Not to my knowledge? No? Not to your knowledge?
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 1 Hmm.
Speaker 1
No. This is Mills World.
We're just living in a
Speaker 1 damn.
Speaker 1 Now you're catching on.
Speaker 1 But I don't find that to be a detriment and I don't feel any need to apologize for it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 But also, yes, I do like my own company, not all the time, but I just, you know, I just, some people, it's just your nature. I travel alone.
Speaker 1 I travel, I like to travel quickly and do what I want to do, what I want to do, and do this and not have to explain it to anybody.
Speaker 1 And, you know, looking back in my life, I realize most of the stress came from being in a relationship, even a good one. Even a good one?
Speaker 1
Even a good one, because you're still always having to think about another person every day. You got to live your life and somebody else's life.
You ain't got to worry about granny, though. Granny?
Speaker 1 Yeah, you ain't got to worry about granny. Your granny are we talking about?
Speaker 1 We can build you a house in the backyard and you can just, hey, what's up? You know, every other day, we're just going. She'd like that too.
Speaker 1 Wait, I'm with your granny now? Is that where you're?
Speaker 1 I'm trying to set something up here.
Speaker 1 I think you're barking up the wrong tree here. You think so?
Speaker 1
I don't think I am. I really do.
You're pretty cool. Maybe you can get her to smoke with you.
Does she? No, we wish she would.
Speaker 1
She's always a nervous little wreck, bless her heart. We're like, smoke you, Adobe, you'll feel better.
I ain't smoking that shit.
Speaker 1 Well, her generation probably
Speaker 1
thinks it's the devil's weed or something. I mean, the devil's weed.
They were pretty much against that kind of stuff in the South for a long time. Yeah.

Speaker 1
I'm very curious. Like, I'm sure you've had so many offers to do so many things now that you're the it girl.
Yeah. Have you ever heard that term? The it girl? Yeah, by Jason Derulo.
Oh, he has a song.
Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh.
Speaker 1
Who do you listen to? I don't know. I like country music.
Do you like?
Speaker 1
Do you? Well, some. Like, like any music, I like the good parts and not the bad parts.
Yeah, fair.
Speaker 1 I like, you know, I could name lots of country.
Speaker 1
I love Brooks and Dunn. Remember them? Are they before you? Brooks and Dunn.
Okay. You like Keith Whitley? Never heard of him?
Speaker 1 Put your mouth back. Sorry.
Speaker 1 It's going to start another meme. Probably.
Speaker 1
Make it a blame. Blood blast and put blame it on me.
A whole bag of peckers in my mouth. Right.
And again,
Speaker 1 we need to move past that, Haley. Yeah.
Speaker 1
If you don't want, trust me. I'll try to keep my mouth shut.
Yeah. Just listen to me.
Speaker 1 What are we talking about? What did I just ask you?
Speaker 1
Country music. Who else do you like? What about Taylor Swift? I like Taylor Swift.
You do? I do. I liked her more when she was country.
I did too.
Speaker 1 I really liked her when I was a younger girl.
Speaker 1 Sparks fly.
Speaker 1
I love that. You know that song? Yeah, do you really like that song? I love it.
Would I have name-checked it if I didn't?
Speaker 1 I bet you're sitting here high as hell and you just mind your business listening to Sparks Fly, don't you?
Speaker 1 I do it.
Speaker 1 It's it's happened.
Speaker 1 I mean, I don't think I put it on purposely to commune with it, but it's in my playlist. I love it.
Speaker 1 But,
Speaker 1 you know, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1 Look, I'm sure she's a lovely person, but the whole thing with the football player, just like, I just felt like 35 was a little old to be like, my boyfriend's a football player.
Speaker 1 And I wear his jersey to the game with this number on it.
Speaker 1 Right? I mean, come on.
Speaker 1 Whatever makes her happy.
Speaker 1
Oh, of course. If that's what she wants to do and it makes her happy, gone.
It ain't got nothing to do with me. I know.
Speaker 1 He's going to dump her, though. You know that.
Speaker 1
No, I'm going to be a Travis Kelse hater. I mean, with her, it's like the Gatorade at the Super Bowl.
You know, you're going to get dumped. You just don't know when.
Speaker 1 But you got to think about it this way. If he does that, can you imagine the next album we're going to get off of that?
Speaker 1
Yes, I can. It won't be fucked John Mayer no more.
It'll be fuck Travis. That was a long time ago.
It was. Yeah.
Is she still singing about that? Well, it's just her old music. Right.
Speaker 1
But her tour was the era's tour, and it was like a recapitulation of all her old music. Right.
So it must have had the songs about all the people that she wrote songs about.
Speaker 1
No, you got a point. I feel tacky singing about my ex-boyfriend.
I think it's very tacky.
Speaker 1
I think it's very tacky. I've been thinking about it.
I'm like, damn, didn't I forget him? Yeah.
Speaker 1 I mean, you can't
Speaker 1 control
Speaker 1
what the muse dictates to you. I mean, she's a songwriter.
I mean, what's in her mind? What's coursing through her emotions? Of course, it was breakup stuff. So she's going to write songs.
Speaker 1 I can't falter for that. When she comes on in the car, ooh, we.
Speaker 1 But it does seem like such a recurrent theme that at some point you just, you just want to say, maybe you should write a song called Maybe It's Me. Maybe it's Me.
Speaker 1 But no, I'm an admirer. I mean, anyone who, I mean, you're too young to remember anything.
Speaker 1 But like what? Like I was going to say, the Beatles, Elvis, Frank Sinatra, other musical performers who have had
Speaker 1
just immense careers like this, where they dominated beyond just mere culture. I mean, rather real, just the music into the culture.
And she has too. So I have to put her in that pantheon.
Speaker 1 I don't get Michael Jackson also.
Speaker 1 yeah i like michael jackson you like him who doesn't yeah he's got good music oh yes unconventional babysitter
Speaker 1 but um
Speaker 1 where do you come up with this where do i come up with this shit you are adorable i don't know
Speaker 1 i should be a comedian and you just say it so casually and it goes right over my head i'm like wait a damn minute yeah
Speaker 1
Well, you heard about that. Yeah.
Yeah. What do you think? After a while, pedophile.
Speaker 1 After a while, pedophile? Is that a saying? He's a creeper, wasn't he? Yes. Well, I mean, you know, do we have.
Speaker 1 But then again, he's like one of the only ones that got caught doing it, kind of like R. Kelly.
Speaker 1 Like, who don't we know about?
Speaker 1
Very true, especially in the music industry. Makes you wonder, don't it? Oh, I don't wonder.
I mean, I mean, the P. Diddy thing.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 That one went over my head. I forgot about that.
Speaker 1 Well, I mean, that certainly exposed
Speaker 1 just, I think,
Speaker 1 just the beginning of the cracking of the ice, because
Speaker 1 that goes deep in the music industry. I've known too many people in the music industry, women in the music industry, and the tales they have told.
Speaker 1
It is... It's just, it's relentless, it's never-ending, and it's ubiquitous.
Do you know what that word means? That's a large word. Could you explain that?
Speaker 1 Well, see, they should have taught you that in school, but it's a good word to know. And, you know, when you learn words, as soon as you know them and you hear them, you'll be surprised.
Speaker 1
Then you'll hear it again quickly because you actually heard it many times. It just didn't register because you didn't know what it was.
How'd you say that? Ubiquitous? Ubiquitous. Ubiquitous.
Speaker 1
Means everywhere. Ubiquitous.
Like germs are ubiquitous. means they're just everywhere.
Viruses. We're breathing in trillions of them right now.
They're ubiquitous. What?
Speaker 1 That spakes me a little bit.
Speaker 1 When you had your viral moment, you were practically ubiquitous.
Speaker 1
It was everywhere. It was everywhere.
And so next time you're interviewed and they ask you about it, you worked out. Ubiquitous.
You worked out.
Speaker 1 I'm going to have to put that in my notes so I don't forget it.
Speaker 1
Actually, I might need you to sell that out for me afterwards. I'm not the best speller.
You work that in. Ubiquitous.
Speaker 1 You know, just be like, oh man, I was ubiquitous. Yeah, bitch.
Speaker 1 and then my catchphrase yeah bitch that's also how can get you like a big light up sound that says yeah
Speaker 1 so um
Speaker 1 all right so you listen to taylor swift and
Speaker 1 who else who else is have you heard of taitman cray do you listen to a lot of rap i mean here and there i like old rap though i don't listen to much new rap what's old to you old rap? To me, it's like
Speaker 1 Jay-Z and Tupac.
Speaker 1
No, you've heard of Jay-Z. Yeah, and Tupac.
I've heard of both of them. I just don't listen to them like that.
Yeah. He says that one song, Jay-Z's in.
It's like Concrete Jungle, Wet Dream Tomato,
Speaker 1 you know, about New York.
Speaker 1 Wet Dream Tomato? That's not really what it says, but that's what it sounds like, and that's what I know it by.
Speaker 1
Wet Dream Tomato. Concrete Jungle, Wet Dream dream tomato.
I mean, but you know, that's been going on for a very long time where we hear lyrics and then we think. They sound like something else.
Speaker 1 There was one
Speaker 1
blinded by the light and then set up like a douche in the middle of the night. And it's like, that can't be it.
I mean, I think other comics
Speaker 1 comics have other comics have sometimes pointed these out. So from Stealing Their Thunder, there was a song called Bad Moon Rising
Speaker 1
by Creed and Claude or Revival. I'm sure you're a big fan.
And
Speaker 1 there's a bad moon rising and something, something.
Speaker 1
And it did sound like they were saying, there's a bathroom on the right. There's a bathroom on the right.
And that is not what they were saying.
Speaker 1 So you're not the first one. Yeah.
Speaker 1
But if you mean that New York, New York song, that is a great song. I think Rihanna.
Do you like it? Well, I think Rihanna sings the hook on that, doesn't she? I think so. Yeah.
Speaker 1 No, it's a great combination. He's a great collaborator.
Speaker 1 Daisy.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 1
He's been on my show a couple of times. He always called himself a serial collaborator.
I remember that. Daisy's been on here?
Speaker 1 No, my other show, my TV show.
Speaker 1 I know you don't know what daddy does for a living, but
Speaker 1 I'm a
Speaker 1
professor. I watched a little bit once.
I'm a professor at MIT. Are you really? No, that's what Howard Stern used to say.
I used to say, I tell my kids I'm a professor. I'm a professor.
Speaker 1
That was really so funny. You could be a professor.
I could be a professor. I'm a professor.
Speaker 1
I'm a professor of show business. Yeah.
And I think you're smart enough to absorb what I'm telling you.
Speaker 1 But I'm telling you, this is a great opportunity for you to, you should listen to me because this is such a...
Speaker 1
crucial moment for you. You're at a crossroads of your life.
You've been given this chip. Remember we discussed the chip? Now it's like a lottery.
It's like a winning lottery ticket.
Speaker 1 You could throw it in the garbage or you could just lose it or you could parlay it into something bigger, amazing. You know, we don't want to see you back at the Spring Factory in three years.
Speaker 1 See, once you've seen, there's an old saying, how are you going to keep them down on the farm once they've seen Paris?
Speaker 1 It was a saying
Speaker 1
when the boys in America were going off to World War I. Did they teach you in school when World War I was? I'm sure they did, but I probably took a nap in that class.
Do you have any idea?
Speaker 1 Let's see. I'm going to say
Speaker 1 it was in the 1919 to 1918
Speaker 1 was World War I.
Speaker 1 World War II was the 1940s, the first half of the 1940s. You weren't born yet? I was not.
Speaker 1 But it's important that you know these basic markers in history.
Speaker 1 But anyway, when they were going off and they were going to France and there was a song, I think it was a song, How Are You Going to Keep Them Down on the Farm After They've Seen Paris?
Speaker 1
Meaning, like, once you've seen something spectacular like that, you can't go back. And you can't go back.
You know, now you've seen show business.
Speaker 1
Now I can't go back to my spring factory. It would be very difficult.
You're a celebrity now.
Speaker 1 That'll mean that to me.
Speaker 1 I don't want you to lose at all your southern charm and your natural thing.
Speaker 1 But,
Speaker 1
yeah, you might consider going with the glass. You might consider it.
I can see.
Speaker 1
It's okay. That's what they put it in a can thing.
Okay.
Speaker 1
It's like real chilly. There might be germs on that can.
We were talking about germs being ubiquitous. Don't talk about that.
Speaker 1
Because I don't want to sit there and think about every person that's touched the room of it. I don't know.
We're figuring it out. We are figuring it out.
Speaker 1 By the time you leave that seat, we've got to have a clear outline because again time is of the essence america gets tired of shit quick yeah they do you know you don't want to be yesterday's fish you want to be tired of them before they're tired of you
Speaker 1 let me tell you a story about the beatles oh goodness all right i'm all here for it back in the uh when did when were the beatles do you remember do you can do you have any idea what decade that was
Speaker 1
You give me a minute. Hold on.
Hold on.
Speaker 1 Well, if World War I was the 70s?
Speaker 1
Close. 60s.
60s. Okay, I was close.
I said close.
Speaker 1
I'll give you credit where credit is. Thank you.
Okay. After Beatlemania, you remember Beetle Mania,
Speaker 1 the world went nuts, just the way they do for
Speaker 1 just like Taylor Swift now. Like it's all anybody ever talked about.
Speaker 1 There was nobody else who was close to them on the charts. Everything was one
Speaker 1 group got all the attention. And
Speaker 1 so
Speaker 1 their like fourth album,
Speaker 1 the first song on it was Tax Man. Tax Man? Yeah.
Speaker 1 And it was kind of their way of saying like, we're not with the teenagers anymore. We're growing up and we're going to stay ahead of you.
Speaker 1 Because what could be less interesting to teenagers than taxes? Wow.
Speaker 1 So that's what you have to do.
Speaker 1 You have to stay ahead.
Speaker 1 They're going to want to always keep you where you were. But I got to get ahead of them.
Speaker 1 You got to tell them you're Haley. You've morphed into this.
Speaker 1 You know, it was great, the origin story. It was great.
Speaker 1 That was the
Speaker 1
ashes from which your Phoenix rose from. That's the body that your snake shed, the skin it shed.
That's the egg you came out of. Not that you're a snake or a chicken.
Speaker 1 You're not a great way of saying that. But you did grow up on a farm.
Speaker 1 And now you're this,
Speaker 1
you're not the worm. You're the butterfly.
And you don't have to demand to be seen that way. I'm coming out of my cocoon.
You're coming out of your cocoon. Exactly.
Speaker 1
And, you know, we don't hate the cocoon. The cocoon was great for a while.
Who doesn't mind to live in a cocoon? Man, I think it'd be nice, kind of secluded by yourself.
Speaker 1 But it's great to be a butterfly. Yeah.
Speaker 1 Okay.
Speaker 1 So, so so who else do you listen to you listen to taylor swift you listen to some country guy you never heard of um keith whitley i can't believe you never heard of keith whitley
Speaker 1 you know who i
Speaker 1 i just recently uh he died and so i toby keith yes you like toby keith i got his um 35 greatest hits because i made fun of him back in the day you wouldn't remember where you were born in 03
Speaker 1
okay So that's the year we invaded Iraq, not that I have to tell you. And the country was very divided.
And Toby Keith put out a song about like, you know, put a boot in your ass. And
Speaker 1 I got to tell you, I like it a lot more now than I did then.
Speaker 1 Just because the left has gotten so obnoxious that like
Speaker 1 it's, you know.
Speaker 1 I still think we probably shouldn't have gone into Iraq. But anyway, so I got
Speaker 1 this whole thing, and I liked a lot of them. They're good, aren't they? There's one called,
Speaker 1 I'm not as young as I once was,
Speaker 1 but I can do
Speaker 1 once
Speaker 1 what I used to do.
Speaker 1
I ain't as good as I once was. That one? Yes.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 But what's the second? I'm not as good as I once was, but I can do once as good as I ever could. That's the idea of it, which I think is so funny and certainly rings true at my age.
Speaker 1 I'm I'm not as good as I once was, but I can do it once as good as I ever could.
Speaker 1 What do you think about
Speaker 1 what's the one I really like? My favorite ones, I want to talk about me. Have you heard that one? Yes, love that
Speaker 1
very fun. Well, country lyrics are in general, very often superior to pop lyrics.
Not the best pop lyrics, there are some amazing pop lyrics.
Speaker 1 I mean, I would put, you know, our greatest lyricists, people I'm sure you know very well, like Paul Simon and Billy Joel.
Speaker 1 I would put them.
Speaker 1 no
Speaker 1 if you're not watching this if you're just listening you're missing such such good
Speaker 1 such good uh two-shots with you you make very good faces it says it all of my mouth don't say it my face yeah no more of that sorry it's a bad habit
Speaker 1 so
Speaker 1 uh but country lyrics are generally they're clever
Speaker 1 They're they're funny
Speaker 1 and they're heartful.
Speaker 1 They're
Speaker 1 There's a kind of country song that's too country that I don't like with the kind of like fiddle and I don't know.
Speaker 1 It just, I don't mind the twangy voice, but when country got to be more like country rock, it totally won me over. But the old school kind of like, you know,
Speaker 1 fiddle. You know, George Stripe?
Speaker 1 Don't know his work.
Speaker 1 Don't do that.
Speaker 1 So sorry.
Speaker 1 You don't know the king of country?
Speaker 1 George Strait isn't. I know enough about the country to know that he's not the king of it.
Speaker 1
George Strait. Keith Whitley wouldn't have killed him.
Of all the country stars, he's the king. More than...
Yeah. More than like.
Speaker 1
Garth Brooks and... Garth Brooks is really good.
And big.
Speaker 1 No, we're big.
Speaker 1
George Strait, you got to do your research on him. He's great.
I will. I always like to give anybody a chance.
You got Leonard Skinnyard?
Speaker 1
Leonard Skinner, yeah. Love me some Leonard Skinner.
I mean, I don't consider that country. No, he said some great rocks.
I was like, oh, yeah, Leonard Skinner. Leonard Skinner.
Speaker 1
Sweet Home, Alabama, Leonard Skinner, you said? I mean, yeah. Tuesday's Gone, Freebird.
Freebird. Freebird's so good.
But
Speaker 1 they're a hard rock band. They're not country at all.
Speaker 1 Their lyrics are, you know.
Speaker 1 They are nostalgic
Speaker 1 for the south at a time, it seems, when it was very bad for black people to live there. You know, they used to be really bad to black people in the south, right? Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 Okay, I don't know, we don't, I don't know how they did teach us that in school. They did, they did.
Speaker 1 What did they I'm so curious. What did they teach you about the civil rights movement or or slavery or whatever in school? Because there's a lot of
Speaker 1 complaints from school board type people that that's some stuff I actually did learn a lot about. Like like harriet tubman she done the underground right railroad i know that um
Speaker 1 i know who martin luther king jr is rosa parks you do know who martin luther king is
Speaker 1 okay and that's stuff i actually paid attention to that interested me now you get to like what was martin luther king trying to achieve i mean he was shot in 1968 he was trying to be fair was he not he was what he was trying to be fair trying to be fair yeah well he was trying to get black people equal like white people, you know?
Speaker 1 He was trying to get fairness for black people, yes.
Speaker 1
You know, at a time when it wasn't even necessarily encoded into law, or there was something called the 1964 Civil Rights Act. So that's 1964.
I was eight years old. So it's not a million years ago.
Speaker 1 You're sitting with someone who was alive when it happened. It was a law that,
Speaker 1 you know,
Speaker 1 and this is 100 years after the Civil War. So 100 years after black people were officially freed, they still needed to pass this landmark legislation to allow them basic things
Speaker 1
like, you know, you could use the same bathroom. You know, you weren't allowed to deny them to eat in a restaurant.
I mean, or stay at a hotel. I mean, this is pretty basic stuff.
Speaker 1 They had to fight for it.
Speaker 1 They had to fight tooth and nail. Some people would say President Kennedy was assassinated for it.
Speaker 1 You know,
Speaker 1 you know who that is. Yeah, I've heard about him he got shot in the back of the head didn't he yeah
Speaker 1 you think our ancestors actually like come out of monkeys
Speaker 1 they
Speaker 1 like you know they say they evolved from monkeys and then we're here they of course they evolved not from monkeys monkeys are our cousins but monkeys are cousins monkeys and humans have a common ancestor of course yeah they just got a tail You know that in your state of Tennessee, they had a very famous trial called the Scopes Trial.
Speaker 1 What's that?
Speaker 1 In 1925,
Speaker 1 seven years after the end of World War I,
Speaker 1 they had a trial
Speaker 1 where
Speaker 1 Clarence Darrow and
Speaker 1 oh, who was it? He ran for president.
Speaker 1 I forget his name. He was
Speaker 1
the two most famous lawyers of their day. And one of them defended the idea that humans were descended from a common ancestor of apes, primates, which is the truth.
And the other one said, no,
Speaker 1 it's not in the Bible. And of course, the people there in Tennessee in 1925 and probably today
Speaker 1
were very supportive of the idea. It was in the Bible.
And it's just offensive to even think that we were evolved. But we did.
And it's not offensive. And it's science.
Speaker 1 And I hope as you go forth in the world, whoever you encounter,
Speaker 1 you
Speaker 1
present yourself as someone who believes in the theory of evolution. It's not a theory anymore.
Okay, good. So don't
Speaker 1 even ask the question. We definitely descended from,
Speaker 1
well, we all the way from microscopic life. I mean, one more question for you.
Yes. How's that lady in the picture got three boobs?
Speaker 1 Well,
Speaker 1 in this picture? Oh, because Gilbert Godfrey did that. He was was so funny, wasn't he? Yeah,
Speaker 1
she's got three moves. I just happened to glance up.
I said, What the fuck is that? That's a beautiful, beautiful piece. His wife, his widow, sent me that.
Speaker 1
I thought you were gonna say a beautiful lady. I was like, I don't know about that.
Oh, I just noticed there's a blowjob going on in the
Speaker 1 upper right.
Speaker 1 Oh, well, that's fucking Gilbert.
Speaker 1 Did he draw that? Yeah,
Speaker 1 yeah, he was a very funny comedian. that's a great died a couple of years ago that is great
Speaker 1 so humans are so new
Speaker 1 do you know that i mean our species is only a really a few hundred thousand years old like you could almost count the generations and
Speaker 1 um
Speaker 1 we've only been like living the way we live now, not nomadic roaming around where we were settled since about 10,000 BC.
Speaker 1
So only about 12,000 years have people like lived relatively close to the way you other before that we were just like huddled and wiping our ass with bark. And leaves.
And leaves and shit. Yeah.
Speaker 1 What kind of a house did you have in Tennessee? Was it was the was the bathroom out back or was it inside the house? No, it is in the house.
Speaker 1
Nowhere is in the house. I'm fucking with it's definitely in the house.
When I have an outhouse, you throw mulch on your shit. I think that's the thing they do up in Canada, isn't it?
Speaker 1 Well, that's it. Like, don't they have outhouses in Canada?
Speaker 1
And they don't flush. You just throw shit on it.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 I imagine there are places in this world.
Speaker 1
I certainly wouldn't single out Canada. It doesn't.
That's what I've always got told. Like, they don't have bathrooms, though.
They just have outhouses. This is a very sophisticated country.
Speaker 1 I'm sure it is. Yeah.
Speaker 1 You've been,
Speaker 1 where have you traveled? Where would you like to travel? Have you ever been here before to la

Speaker 1
I tell you, you are a breath of fresh air for a country. I'm thanking you.
No, you are. You're adorable.
Speaker 1 For a country that needs,
Speaker 1
you know, a lot of relief. There's a lot of shit going on right now.
So, you know, I think you've just brought a smile to people's faces, and that's really nice. So good.
Speaker 1 So, you know, let them do something for you now. Let them spit on your dick.
Speaker 1
No, I don't know about that. I'm a dermaphobe.
Yeah, I know. Yeah, and we're not going to talk about that anymore.
That's, that's the old, that's the origin story. Yeah.
Right? Not anymore. Right.
Speaker 1 Are you interested in, do you, you kids these days, like I say, you're interested in TV. Do you even know what a TV is?
Speaker 1 I watch TV sometimes. You actually have a TV?
Speaker 1
Because usually kids your age, they like, they don't even have one. It's like a typewriter to them.
Yeah. A TV? A TV, a television.
I like watching my TV. Me too.
I find it comforting. Me too.
Speaker 1 Like you lock yourself in your bedroom and you just watch TV and you don't look at your phone or nothing. Yeah.
Speaker 1
I like that. And how much are you on the phone? I try not to be on it a whole lot.
Do you like even before? Do you use dating apps? No. No.
Uh-oh.
Speaker 1
Good. I'm not interested in me.
That's so good because that's part of the evil. It's not like I'm out looking for it either, though.
I'm not. Like, if it crosses paths with me, sure, that's one thing.
Speaker 1
But I'm not out looking for it. That's a great attitude.
Yeah. And that's.
Because I'm in my prime time, you know. I want to have fun.
I'm not here trying to get married the next year, you know?
Speaker 1
I really just, I don't know, it weirds me out. I'm not like you.
It's a shame Deion Sanders already has the primetime nickname because that would be good for you. Primetime.
Speaker 1
But, you know, maybe he's not using it. You could steal it.
Maybe. You know him, Deion Sanders? Nope.
I can Google him, though. Don't worry.
You're going to be doing a lot of Googling. Yeah.
Speaker 1 I have a lot of research to catch up on.
Speaker 1 Jesus.
Speaker 1 You know, he's the guy who they started to count time again for. Like when he,
Speaker 1
when he's born, that's how big a deal he was. You think Tyler Swift was big? You You think she had followers.
He had some work. I mean, he had followers.
I'm not kidding. He did.
So
Speaker 1 if he ever lived, which is not certain. Anyway,
Speaker 1 but
Speaker 1 when he is born, that's when we start counting time again. That's when we go from BC before Christ to AD.
Speaker 1
They say it doesn't really stand for after death, but it kind of... Well, it doesn't because he dies in 33.
So yeah, it wouldn't work.
Speaker 1 And BC probably stands for something, I don't know, that's, that's really what it means. Like this motherfucker was such a badass that we started counting time again.
Speaker 1
That's, I mean, they can parse it any way they want. That's really what it is.
So that's where BC goes. So when you're talking about BC years, you're counting backwards.
Speaker 1
So 500 BC is a. And then you go to like 400 BC.
Right. Yeah, they taught us that in school.
Yeah. We learned that.
Speaker 1 And like
Speaker 1 fifth grades when I learned that.
Speaker 1 And Greek civilization, one of the early important civilizations that gave the world so many things that have been carried through, like the idea of democracy and stuff like that.
Speaker 1
When was that about? That's BC times. I'll give you that.
What was BC times? Yes.
Speaker 1 300s, I'd say.
Speaker 1
I don't know. I'm not confident in myself.
Very good. It's very close.
200s. No, no, no, no.
A little further back.
Speaker 1 I mean, Athens thrived in the second half of the 5th century BC, which is like the 400s.
Speaker 1
And then Rome. Rome followed Greece.
Those were the two pillars of antiquity, Greece and Rome.
Speaker 1 You know Rome, right? Is that someplace you'd like to travel to? It would be pretty cool. It would be pretty cool.
Speaker 1
Italy? Yeah. You've heard of the Colosseum? I like to go and visit Italy before it sinks.
I've been there. Did you like it? Well, it stinks like a turd, but well, it's built on canals.
Speaker 1 It stinks. It's just
Speaker 1
you can be like on that canal and like you'll turn down another street, you know, a street of water, and you just lose your lunch. I mean, it's just like, yeah, I can't do smells.
I can do anything.
Speaker 1 And I can't do a city that's built on the water. It's fucking nuts.
Speaker 1
And it floods all the time. I mean, it's gorgeous and romantic.
And it's so popular now
Speaker 1 as a tourist site that they had to institute a fee just to get into the city, just to get into the city, not even do anything. Just to get in? Yeah, because it itself is such a big tourist site.
Speaker 1
Oh, yeah. Right.
I haven't planned a vacation yet. What's going on in the world? That I don't know anything about, yes.
Exactly.
Speaker 1 Educated me. You know that the Chinese just brought back a rock from the dark side of the moon?
Speaker 1 What? The Chinese sent a probe up to the moon and they brought back a rock that from the dark side of the moon which we had never done maybe they'll smoke it
Speaker 1 moon dust actual moon dust
Speaker 1 why is that is that a thing moon dust i don't know oh but it's actually like off the moon though did you see a a lot of opioid abuse in your um
Speaker 1 area of you know that's the part of the country that
Speaker 1 i don't think No, I don't, I don't know, I don't pay attention to that.
Speaker 1 You didn't know anybody who was like on Oxy and they call it the Hillbilly heroin.
Speaker 1 Not that I know of, but I don't see anybody openly admitting it, you know.
Speaker 1 All right, so you don't
Speaker 1 want to be in
Speaker 1 well, TV.
Speaker 1 Would you think about
Speaker 1 some kind of TV career?
Speaker 1 Yeah, I possibly could. I got some acting classes.
Speaker 1 Acting. Maybe.
Speaker 1
Oh, well, this is a twist in the plot. Maybe.
I said maybe. I don't know.
I'm giving my options up.
Speaker 1 I can do it, possibly.
Speaker 1 You know, you have to be very dedicated.
Speaker 1 Maybe not acting. Maybe like reality TV or something.
Speaker 1 I think it would be a shame because your own personality is so good.
Speaker 1 It's like sometimes people
Speaker 1 still will say to me, Oh, you're an actor. I'm like, No, I'm not.
Speaker 1
That's that is not what I am. I'm almost the opposite of an actor.
And I take pride in that. You know, like, no, I'm me.
I'd rather be playing me all the time than playing somebody else.
Speaker 1
Phony character. Well, not that it's a phony.
I mean, there's
Speaker 1
brilliant people who do acting and they do it at an amazing level, and it's great and entertaining. And I'm glad they do it.
It is entertainment.
Speaker 1 But
Speaker 1 for some of us, it's just not right.
Speaker 1 You know, I think we're going to want to see
Speaker 1 that little face.
Speaker 1
Yes, doing that shit. Yeah.
That's it. We'll get it figured out.
Yes. I'm telling you, you got to strike while the iron's hot.
Speaker 1 You're going to want to travel, right?
Speaker 1 You want to know where you are. You want to know, like, you know.
Speaker 1 You said you Rome. You want to go to Rome.
Speaker 1
Anywhere else, bring to mind Paris. Yeah.
The places. You got to go to Paris.
I think it'd be fun. Yeah, you got to go to the places they put on Instagram.
Yeah. All the hype places.
Speaker 1 I want to go see them. Is that what you see? Like the Eiffel Tower? Is that what you see on Instagram?
Speaker 1 Stuff like that.
Speaker 1 I see.
Speaker 1
That's what you see. And you see something and you would want to go there.
What about London? I could go to London.
Speaker 1
I could. I'm never down or I'm never not down for a trip.
I think we need to conquer America first. Yeah.
Speaker 1 I'm just getting to explore all this. Well, you know, it could translate overseas or it could not.
Speaker 1 But
Speaker 1 we know here in America,
Speaker 1 you've captured the country by storm.
Speaker 1 So
Speaker 1 let's just
Speaker 1 use our strengths, our adorableness,
Speaker 1 our innocence. Well, thank you.
Speaker 1 That all. all.
Speaker 1 And
Speaker 1 figure out what the next step is for Haley
Speaker 1 and not,
Speaker 1 let's just call her H.T.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 1
We'll get there. Don't worry.
All right.
Speaker 1 Am I going to do anything for you in this business? Be happy to. Well, thank you.
Speaker 1 You're a delight.
Speaker 1
And you're just like when the Beatles came in 1964, we had just been through a terrible time with the Kennedy assassination, as you remember, was was 1973. Yeah, shot in the back of the head.
Yep.
Speaker 1 You remember that part. And
Speaker 1
they came along and just reminded the country of just joyful innocence and laughter. And that's what you've done.
Slightly less musically talented.
Speaker 1 I get that.
Speaker 1
I know. But just keep doing that, okay? I will.
All right.
Speaker 1
I'm about to pee my pants. I've been holding my pay for like two hours.
I feel so good that you had to pee before I did. Yeah, I know.
