You think. he's just doing something weird? >> He's got to be just doing it. >> Trolling. >> Trolling. >> Yeah, because dude, I don't bet a lot, but when I bet a lot of times I'll take. a a someone who is an out a lesbian. woman. I take the toughest lesbian on. the team and I do at least three. rebounds. That's what I bet. >> What is your percentage on that? [sighs]. >> 100? >> No, probably. 5860. But we're doing good because some of.

them I think are on the fence and. they're kind of lying about it just to. fit in in the league. That's what I. think. >> What would you slap down on the old old. guy that's claiming to be a woman. So. that's that's probably a safe bet. >> Oh, I think I if he says he is, I want. to see that gender reveal. That's what I. want to see. You know, >> get his parents there. Get everybody in. the backyard and have him break that. thing out, you know. And it better. >> He's trolling him though. God, he's. trolling him.

point. >> Former NBA player Oh. of how ridiculous. it is. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Former NBA player Enz Caner. Freedom declared themselves eligible. >> Did he change his name to Freedom? Oh, there's another one. Royce White. >> Royce White declared themselves eligible. for the WNBA draft in August 2026 to. protest league policies on transgender. athletes. Though sources say they are. not eligible. So what? Oh, they were. saying if they go through with these new. rules, then they're going to have to. allow guys like them in.

>> Well, what they're saying is right now. the rule is what? Now, listen, let's. just claim that I'm the fact that you. and I are claiming to be Yeah, we're. learning as we go here. But I think. they're just saying if you identify as a. woman, you can play in the WNBA. And. he's just saying I identify as a woman. So, >> dang. Well, >> we'll see. >> TVD boy. [laughter]. But they should do that gender reveal. right before the draft if he is, bro. That's all I'm saying. >> Yeah. >> Just a pants. Just old school high.

school locker room pants style. >> He's a huge guy, boy. >> You probably can't even pants him. Get. hung up. >> He's a huge guy. >> You get caught on something. >> [ __ ] dude. I bet his wiener's got. knuckles on it. [laughter]. >> You know what I'm saying? I bet he's got. some. >> got an elbow in it. >> Oh, dang. I bet, dude. [laughter]. I bet it's got a periscope. I bet it's. wearing a damn Whoop bracelet. You. [laughter] know what I'm saying? I bet. he's Fitbit. >> Yeah, dude. That's when Yeah. [laughter]. God,

>> that's when you know. >> Yeah, that's when you know, brother. That ain't for me, man. Dude, do you. [laughter] What are we talking about? Luke Bryant, good to see you, dude. >> Man, yeah. I can't wait to see the. clips, bro. >> Yeah, we're only five minutes in. >> Do you think your son could uh beat uh. Lane Keifin son? You think he could beat. Knox Knox Keifin if they? >> You know, I don't know. I mean, that. when you're talking about boys like Knox. and my son, these boys are working so hard and so.

tuned up, it's really about the team, really. I mean, and I I don't know I. don't know anything about Knox. Uh Bo. and Knox met at an at a Nike camp in. Louisiana. >> and talk about a damn deal. >> Was that you went to it, >> man? I went there and it was really. It was I didn't want to put my son in. camps before he was ready. >> Okay. Wow. >> Because then Well, because then then. he's got some embarrassment. He may get.

out there and not feel like he can. compete. So, >> right. So, it might be too much for him. like if he sees like some people are so. good if he's. >> I just tried to manage it. And then this. year, this past spring, we did a couple. of them and man, let me tell you. something. We went to Atlanta and and he threw well. in Atlanta, but we went down to. Louisiana, man. And when you see them. boys getting after it in Louisiana, it's. a different deal. >> Was it? >> Well, so. >> was it that Manning camp? >> No, it was it was a Nike It was like a.

Nike Elite 11 camp hosted. So Nike Elite. 11 host camps in different regions of. the c of the country. All right. And so. they host one in different areas and. then they compile the the top performers. for a big camp. But what's So think. about this. I don't know all this. Like. I'm learning this as I go. I mean they. ain't I mean. >> Yeah. You didn't Yeah. >> I didn't. >> you weren't that good. >> Exactly. >> No judgment. But yeah, you didn't have. this opportunity. And it probably didn't. exist then.

>> It didn't. But you know it's not I. hadn't really had time to meet other. dads for them to walk me through it. >> Got it. >> So he So you're brand new. So you're. brand new. brand new learner. >> and he's brand new to it. >> He is, but he knows he's brand new to. camps and he's wanting to see how he's. going to compete with the other boys. He. did good in Atlanta, top talent in the. world. We go to New Orleans and there's. like 150 quarterbacks day one. Well, no. lane uh Knox Kein's there.

and day one we can tell that Bo is. throwing it. You know, you got to. understand he doesn't have any stars at. the time. That's the big thing, too. Are. you a three star, four star, five star? There were a lot of four and five stars. there. And he was throwing alongside of. them. Well, I don't even know. This was. a Saturday, right? >> So, we already had planned to fly go. home Saturday night. Well, he comes up. to me, "Dad, they want me to come back. and throw for the DBs and the receivers. tomorrow morning.".

buddy. First of all, I didn't even plan. Next thing you know, we're eating crawfish and I'm out on. Bill on Bourbon Street. >> Hey, >> that's right where you need to be, brother. >> That's right, dude. We went to a dang we. we tore up Bourbon Street. It was I had. no tour managers with me. >> Nuh-uh. [clears throat]. >> It was just me and a buddy. >> And did Bo go, but you know, he couldn't. go. They led him in a piano bar briefly.

>> Oh yeah. >> But uh no, we we we went on to bed. early, but we we had a big time on. >> Y'all didn't go on to bed early. What. are you talking about? >> We'll see. But we uh but anyway, the. next morning he is. >> so he's a tougher competition that next. day. >> Well, he's throwing to the receiver to. the DBs and the receivers. >> Okay. >> You know, they needed quarterbacks to. showcase the receivers. And man, I was. so amped up watching them boys compete. >> And you know, you you're in the room and. all of them are probably gonna go off.

and play college ball. But. >> yeah, >> they're getting evaluated. There's. cameras on them. And you know, they're. putting their life I mean, this is their. >> that's their thing. >> They're putting it all out there. And so. what's so severe now, you know? I mean, they start, you know, you'll see videos. of seven year olds. They got. sevenyear-old kids that are miked up. >> Miked up. >> Yeah. And some kid. >> with an Instagram. Yeah. Instagram. Yeah. And all he's doing is he's like he. keeps being like, "Mom, I got to go to. the toilet." Or whatever. It's like some. of these kids, it's like, "You have a. damn 2-year-old out there.". >> Miked up on the toilet. >> Oh, no. Just miked up. Like he he just. keeps trying to leave the game and go to.

the restroom, whatever. That one kid. they keep ming up, but it's like Yeah. They have some of them. It's just like. they're ming them up so early. You know. what I'm saying? Like it's just gotten. lower and lower. You know, these kids. are starting off so early. >> Well, I I think it's psycho. Oh, this is. him. >> No, I don't know. This might be him. Is. this him? >> This is just one of them. [laughter]. Yeah, one of them's miked up toilet kid. or whatever. >> That mic in my back, bro. >> I mean, what are we doing? >> Yeah, >> Devon, boy. >> I'm getting miked up.

>> I'm getting mic is crazy. What are we. doing? >> And I'm getting posted on YouTube. >> Oh my god. [screaming] I'm stepped over, >> bro. That's Diego Pavey. I think [laughter]. >> I'm full grown. >> Full grown. >> That's wrong. You know him. He's going. to attack me. >> No, he'll be fine, man. We're joking. That's my guy. But, uh, dude, well, the. crazy thing is though with your son. going down there and playing against.

those guys that are the, you know, four. stars, five stars, playing against guys. who are. >> throwing when he's throwing with four or. five stars and he's throwing with them, making the throws, it told him in his. brain, "All right, well, I deserve to be. here." That was a great moment for him. rather than going in there prematurely. >> and not getting called to come back and. then so he left that camp. I think he. got ready to threestar recruit and. started getting some uh some college. offers and stuff like that. So. >> yeah, because you play in some of these. like some of these Christian leagues and. stuff like that, these smaller.

communities, dude, it's. >> I'm just saying the Lord don't have the. best defensive backs. That's all I'm. saying, dude. You know what I'm saying? So, it's like sometimes you'll get. players that come out of these places. and it's like the guy ran for 70,000. yards. >> Yeah. What was he running against? And. >> yeah, >> you know, and a lot of people I think. even as Bo did well, there's still. there's a lot of eyeballs trying to. discredit what he did or whatever. But, you know, he's got a whole season to put. his body of work together and you know, you can't you can't judge any dang kid. on one day and you can't judge mine and.

you can't. >> so so and you know, Philip Riversson. unfortunately got hurt and you know, got. hurt and and so the game would have been. a lot tougher game had uh his son. >> stayed in it. >> Stayed in it. But it it was a it was it. was a big old moment. I was happy. You. know, any you know the deal, man. I've I've just had an amazing life and. like 95% of my joy comes from watching. your kids and all them have fun now, you. know. So, you know, we spoke on kid. You.

I mean, I. got to do it. >> soon. >> Yeah. And with a woman, you know, >> that helps. >> So, and you can't just Yeah. You got to. you got to figure it out. But I'm Yeah, I'm headed in that direction. I'm. working towards I'm starting to like see. if my actions will kind of like, you. know, >> do you are you just straight up asking. first question? Do you want kids? Is.

that is that how you leaning in or? >> No. No. >> Still a little more. >> I'll draw a picture of a kid off his, you know, >> how about this? >> Slide it over. Yeah. What do you think. about that? Yeah. [laughter]. >> I'm not a good artist. She'll be like, "I never damn ugly kid." I [laughter]. say, "Look.". >> Yeah. She'll be like, "You think I'm. that ugly?". >> We ain't making that.

Dude, that ain't bad, man. >> Yeah, that's. >> that ain't bad at all. >> Yeah. And then probably getting eaten by. a fish as it dies.

Broadway and you were like, "Dude, like. you had just tried it." We were at that. little uh we were at a showcase first. time you and I met and you were like, "Man, I just learned I can't walk down.

See, look right here. >> Yeah. >> I didn't know what the [ __ ] was going. on. And those [laughter]. those glasses were from a damn senior. citizen. >> So those get dark. You know how dark. >> Did you get cataract surgery two days. before [laughter] that? >> Them [ __ ] were dark, dude. I drove a. sedan home. You know them [ __ ] were. big, dude. >> Lincoln Continental, >> bro. You It happens, bro. That's how I.

want to get it. >> Well, that's fun. You got to do that. I'll take you on some real stuff. What? He don't know what he's doing. Well, he. was hunting some oyolas. And I'll say. this, man. They hunt like afterwards. We. were leaving the the I don't know if. it's called the scene of the crime or. whatever it is, wherever you go hunt. >> So, we're leaving out of there and the. there's two birds like right by the road. like on the way out. >> and they get out like we're going to. shoot ambush them. >> Yeah. And I'm like, dude, the game's. over. Like, we already did it out there. and these are like in the locker room.

One of them's taking his he's got a. towel on his neck. one of these turkeys. >> Yeah. >> Putting gold bond on. >> Yeah. [laughter] And what somebody went. over there with a damn handgun, I think, and I was like, "Dear God, get me out. This is This is turned into something. else, you know? This is a damn wet. market." So, [laughter] we're back. But God, bro, but it was fun, dude. I. would go hunt some other stuff, dude. It. might We might have to start getting. some real different animals, especially. with these beef prices. You see what's. going on with all that? >> Yeah. You know, it's it's funny, man.

And I mean, I'm. >> Trump Trump said he's got 300,000. 300,000 tons of beef they found. somewhere. Let's let me see what it is. The president announced Friday that his. administration would temporarily. temporarily lift tariffs on up to. 300,000 metric tons of imported ground. beef, dude. >> Well, be I you know, I'm kind of in the. loop on all that. I talked to a lot of. buddies that that have them and. you know there was. I I I'm not I mean I'm in a I mean I've.

kind of I've gotten to know uh I've. gotten to know Brooke Rollins the. secretary of agriculture. >> Cool guy. >> It's a girl and um. >> she uh that's her. >> Dang. What's up Brooke? [laughter]. >> She's the best. >> She's married. She's got kids uh at&m. and. >> Okay, I shouldn't even be asking this. >> But she uh I know you feel bad now. Now. you're going to have your phone tapped. [laughter].

>> Yeah. Every time. Yeah. Every. time I say poultry, it'll ping. somewhere. >> Brook's gonna Brook's going to put some. uh Dude, so man, they just had this. thing in Texas called screw worms. >> I've never had them. >> Yeah. Well, you would know. So they light screw worms light on your. skin. Their eggs hatch on your skin and. they burrow into your body. >> And. >> damn. >> And so.

>> it's like it's having neighbors. >> So Brooke and I, you know, I've done my. farm tour stuff through the years and. and so we've had a lot of I've gotten to. meet a lot of governors. um that come out to my farm tours. I'. I've uh worked with Brooke on trying to. plan stuff to to burn to lift up. farmers. But man, it's funny, you know, listen, I mean, we all everybody can sit. back and judge administrations and. cabinet members and all that, but when. you know somebody that's in the trenches. doing it, >> man, you hear what they're having to try.

to negotiate a day like, man, she's. having a great Well, first of all, when. they came when she came into office, like there weren't any I mean, the egg. egg prices were going crazy. poultry, you know, bird flu, and you're. like, man, you're not even thinking that. the secretary of agriculture is trying. to solve all these problems. >> And then I call her up and I'm like, what are you doing today? She's like, >> she's like, I mean, yeah, we're trying. >> flues back or it's something she's.

rocking and rolling. Right time they get. about time they get the eggs going, then. screw worms come in in Texas. And the. problem with screw worms is. >> What are they? Bring them up. They're a. they're a fly and and and and in and. they're a fly that you can they're. easily controlled if you you got a you. got a look at that. >> I don't want them [ __ ]. >> Yeah. >> God. And look at that one. Huh? >> Yeah. That's a lot different than.

peckerats. You remember peckerats? >> Uh-uh. Never mind. >> I don't think so. >> Did you grow up with You didn't grow up. with peckers. Mm-m. I never. [clears throat]. >> I swear that old gnats fly around your. dog's pecker. My granddad look at them. pecker nats. >> Is that a real thing that happened? >> Pecker nats. >> Oh wow. >> Anyway, so. these things light on Well, not only do. they get on cattle, they get on deer and. wildlife. >> No. >> Yeah. So they'll if you're Well, you're. monitor, you know, if you're a cattle.

farmer, you're watching your herd a lot. better. Yeah. But if you're a if you. have a big deer ranch, you can't really. you can't monitor your deer. So, you got. to really this is a it's a bad thing. >> So, what you got to do is you have to. launch sterile flies into the. environment that mate with the female. flies. So, the female flies will chill. out. >> They don't hatch. The eggs don't hatch. and then they die. >> Damn. >> Who would have known,

>> dude? Can you think about how so many. like little edges of science they have. to use? New World screworm eradication. relies primarily on the sterile insect. technique which involves releasing. millions of radiation sterilized male. flies to mate with wild females and halt. reproduction. That's the fact that we. don't even know that that goes on. All. the things that we don't even know that. goes on. Man, I'm just wondering if. there like you start to wonder if we're. going to have to start to evolve to some. other meats. That's my big question. You. know what I'm saying? say the price of. beef gets too crazy because also I know.

that they don't have like a young herd. of cattle. That's one of the problems. >> Well, I think drought, you know, there. was a there was a lot of uh man, there. was the one. there was the one time where all the the. I think one thing that got us put behind. was when a lot of the cattle was lost in. the big freezes a couple years ago. >> You'd think that would be fine. First of. all, heat or freeze, it's ready to eat or it's you can eat it. later. That's how I feel like that thing. would go. >> Alive, Theo.

>> Yeah, >> they died from from cold weather. >> Yeah. >> Hundreds of thousands. >> Yeah, but I'm saying they're frozen. >> You can't once they die in the field, you can't go out there and salvage it. >> Yeah, you can, boy. [laughter]. >> You can't. Well, ask why. Ask it why. we're in the true. cattle deficit right now. I mean, while. we're in That's a great question. Yeah. Why are we Why is it happening now? >> The US is a historic is in a historic.

cattle deficit with herd sizes dropping. to a 75-year low of roughly 86.2 million. head, primarily driven by years of. severe drought, soaring operational. costs, and an aging ranching workforce. Wow. Huh. Prolonged dry spells across major. cattle producing states dried up water. sources. Um, urban sprawl and highland. values have tempted older ranchers to. sell property to developers rather than. passing unprofitable unprofitable. operations down to younger generations.

Huh. >> Interesting, >> man. I think that hopefully hopefully. >> Yeah. Think about all the stuff that Do. you remember like being a kid just being. like we're going to get nuked? Do you. ever think about that as a kid? Like. >> getting nuked by something? >> Just getting nuclear. warheads and stuff. I remember just. always being scared of like. >> Did you? >> Yes. >> Trying to think of what I was scared of. Probably. >> I was scared of like. >> We had a neighbor that would kept.

burning down homes in our neighborhood. >> You know, we had wild my mother I think. in an attempt so I wouldn't play in the. yard a lot, she would tell me that there. were packs of wild dogs that would roll. through the front yard and eat me alive. >> Damn. Very well. [laughter]. So, she had early onset, but I'm going. to tell you, my mother. I mean I mean. >> that's crazy, dude. >> And like about every month or two, you'd.

see a pack in the car. There they are, Luke. See? >> Oh, yeah. Oh, do you remember a dog? >> They were all hunting one hot dog. I. mean, one dog in heat. >> Oh, they were just. >> It wasn't wild dogs. It was just every. dog that wasn't on a leash in. Smithville, Georgia was just chasing the. one [ __ ]. >> Yeah. And how many leashes did they have. in Smithville, Georgia? Yeah, that's I'm. guessing, dude. Well, I remember they. just had wild dogs when I was a kid. They had a dog in the neighborhood. I. remember the first time I saw a Doberman. pincher, dude. And a Rottweiler, bro.

>> Not on a leash. >> Yeah. Oh, I couldn't even Dude, the. Rottweiler played tailback somewhere in. our town, I think. Dude, they had some. damn I mean some of the dogs were just. wild when you were a kid. Oh, that dog. right there. >> God. >> Yeah. I mean, when you I remember seeing. them in just in the back of a pickup. truck. >> just going like, >> "What is What is that? What is that?". >> And I don't want I don't want. >> nothing to do with that, dude. Well, they had. >> Well, then everybody that owned them.

would brag about how it could crush a. bowling ball with one bite. >> Damn. So, >> we had a guy who killed his grandmother. Uh, and that Yeah, that was unfortunate, but yeah, it was a sketchy area. >> Not with the Rottweiler. >> No, dude. He damn did it. I mean, I. didn't want to talk about it, but it. wasn't good. Uh, and she was our lunch. lady, too. God, that was heartbreaking. >> Sloppy Joe Day [laughter]. went south.

>> Yeah, bro. But my mom is I mean she's I. mean my mom has like 500,000 in. Instagram followers. But I I can see. that my mom she has three kids. >> Yeah. She's hilarious. >> We're living in a single wide trailer. She's tired. Her son wants to go out and. ride his tricycle down the dirt road and. she don't want to sit out there and. watch him in the 85 degree 95 degree. weather. So what do you tell him? >> Dangerous. >> I think the wild dogs we're in a we're.

in def. We're in Defcon 5 right now for. Wild Dog, son. You gonna have to You. gonna have to wait till it cools off. >> Dude, my mom would Well, that this is. back when I was just talking about this. the other week. This is back when they. used to have Pedia files or whatever. They'd send them to the door. You had a. lawyer to say you was a pedophile, you. know. >> What is that? >> Pedophiles. People that are. pedophiles. >> Yeah, pedophile. Yeah, people say it. different. [laughter] Pedophiles. Bring. it up. I thought you were I thought you.

Pedialyte off at your house. >> Bro, if you see an older dude just. drinking Pedialyte, that dude is halfway. there. That's all I'm telling you. Cuz a. pedophile. often misspelled as pedophile. So we out. we misspelled it. But also then we miss. it. I'm fine with it. But anyway, this. was the laws they had where you had to. go door to door and say you were a. pedophile. Remember? But our mom's all. works. >> You can't say you're pedophile.

>> They had to. >> That's You would admit to being a. pedophile. >> They had to. If you moved to a new area, you had to go door to door in the. neighborhood and let everybody know you. lived in the neighborhood. >> if you were a pedophile. >> Yeah. >> Oh. >> If you weren't, what the [ __ ] Why would. you do it? >> I thought you were saying that. >> That's crazy. >> I thought you would I get it. It was. like a judge ordered. >> ordered. You have to go tell everybody. >> Got it. All right. >> So, these pedophiles would come to the. door and it would be four us four kids.

standing there and we go, >> he'd be like, "Hey, I'm just letting. y'all know. >> I'm a pedophile." And we be like, "Put. it in the stack, dude. They had some. damn Dude, we played kickball with this. one pedophile, dude." And we'd mess with. him. We'd be like, "You ain't touching. my ass." And we just kick that [ __ ]. dude. Cuz once you know who it is kind. of that, you know, a little bit of this, you know, >> you know whether to hang a right or. left. >> Yes. You just know what's going on. It's. when the secret of surprise when they. don't have that surprise there. That's, you know, when they can't surprise you.

Dude, we used to have a ham radio. Remember that, dude? And you talk to get. that CB radio and just be talking to. truckers. Dude, somebody would come. >> Oh, somebody would come and make love to. my neighbor and we go sit out in his car. while he was in there.

And does it still have. the horns in it or you take them out? >> No, it's all looks like ground beef.

They process it. You know, if you're out. in Colorado and you kill an elk out. there, you take it to the local. processor and they ship it to you. You. love that though. >> I wouldn't mind trying it. >> So, why are you why are you so stressed. about you're stressed about this meat. thing? Well, I just start to worry like. what if things get weird? Get like you. know what I'm saying? I want to have a. strategy where when things do get start. to get kind of dystopian in the world. Say something happens. >> What percentage of I've never had one of. these. Are they good? >> Yeah, it's great, man. >> Yeah, >> it's good stuff. >> What percentage to What is this, by the.

I've heard the song, [laughter] but I. just forget about because it became like. this internet piece of lore or whatever. Trace Aya is always talking about it. Trace is always talking about it. Well, yeah. I mean, you know, we wrote it and. I think I mean, you know, it just.

started this. this, you know, it this whole narrative. got started that. >> I mean, that's the that's the crazy. thing about where we're at with social, they started a narrative that we aed it. >> Yeah. >> And now whether you like the song or. not, or whether you like me as an. artist, >> whether you like what I'm about or. whatever. [laughter]. >> Yeah. I mean, you know, I mean, we're. we're all learning that I mean, I can't. do anything to I mean, back when I wore.

tight jeans, which. wasn't then I was the tight jean guy. I. mean, so you go through all these. phases. Well, I don't wear tight jeans. anymore. Now I'm the guy that somebody. said that I aied a song and wrote it. It's a fun song. And man, it's Well, Riley got involved because Riley I text. Riley that Riley goes, "Hey man, let's. get together." I said, "Hell yeah." I. said, "Fish, golf, hunt, drink, etc.". Yeah. >> And then we wrote the damn song.

>> Oh, y'all really did write it together? >> No, Riley didn't write it with me. Oh, bet. >> But then I told the world that Riley. >> Oh, >> well, the damn thing got so much. negativity then Riley was being funny. that he didn't want to be like, "Don't. associate me with that.". >> Oh, I was wondering what he was saying. Yeah, cuz I didn't understand exactly, >> you know, the the song I I you know, we. featured it as a like an early release. on the album. and man, you know, the fact that we. featured it and younger kids called it a.

single then man, it got it got off like. right when it came out, you know, you. get one or two kids with a bunch of. Instagram or a bunch of followers that. say we AI it and then the whole world. like goes on their narrative. But they. also go listen to it. >> They go listen to it, but then it. started it starts like. >> But I don't think people think you. really AI it. I mean, I think there's. like a. >> I don't know. I think a lot of people. once do.

>> once it started once they started that. chatter. >> Yeah. >> It started I mean it was pretty crazy. >> I think that Yeah. I never I never. grasped that cuz I I saw that stuff and. but then it led me to go listen to the. song, you know, at least, right? But. >> but then dude, it makes guy it was. making guys like like they're at a. camera going, I hate you. [laughter]. Like they're looking in the camera. >> I think it's just. >> and they're like, I hate you. [laughter].

I mean, I. get like I hate you. >> Yeah. >> Chuck on your own vomit. Die in your. sleep. Click. But these cats are saying.

it, >> but I don't think they I think it's all. part of like it's kind of This is. interesting. is actually almost would be. like a case study for like cuz it's kind. of interesting like something happens, right? Like nobody cares that much, right? Like people do care, right? They. they're involved. But I think I think. sometimes it's just something for people. to get involved in that day, right? Because I think you have to start to. think of like or I start to think of it. like this, like we used to get involved. in things socially like amongst each. other, but that doesn't really happen. anymore as much. So now a way to get.

involved in something is to create some. angle or have something to say about. something and just put it out there, right? Like I think it's funny that. then you have to wrap your head around. the the idea that you're happy that. everybody is being this way because it's. getting more notoriety. But then I'm. like, >> well, wait. I'm not sure I'm happy about. a bunch of teenagers.

telling a 50-year-old man he's a piece. of [ __ ] songwriter, [laughter]. but that's what. >> And then I'm like, dude, you're 16. You're talking to a grown man that's. made a [ __ ] ton of money doing this, >> but that's what they're going to do. anyway. [laughter]. >> I know, but it's just so like it's so. far out there. I'm like, if I caught my. kids doing some stuff like that, I would. kill them. >> I don't think re right, but I think real. country fans or real fans of your music. and stuff. >> Here's what I know. Like. >> that's they're they're not [ __ ] doing.

it, >> man. I went down to I went down to. >> And who gives. >> When I went down to watch Bose's game, >> they were playing that song on the. speaker at the football game. Yeah. >> Having a blast with it.

>> Like what do you mean? >> You're worried about beef prices? >> Yeah. Like I'm worried about why that. this many people are that way about me. like and everybody like why are they. that way? >> I think it's just fun. I think people. are just clowning right here. Who are. you? Chill on the aderall. Luke Bryan. responds to video saying his new song. sounds like it was written by a. four-year-old using AI. I think it's all. I think it's all just kind of fun and. games man. Yeah. I don't think people re.

I think a lot of it is it's just like. this new way of communication and it's. like uh it's just like it adds just lore. to the whole thing kind of. That's what. I feel like. >> I know. I mean listen I mean you you got. to figure I've I've I've really had a. long career. >> Oh yeah. >> of a lot of people doing that. I mean. when country girl shake it for me came. out there were people that. >> they couldn't handle it. >> Couldn't handle it. Like. >> why? cuz they didn't want the women.

And then they. would play Mel McDaniel Saturday night. right after that. get down to.

And he kind of he says he goes uh we. kind of sat down as a big family, extended family, because they uh my my. brother-in-law's family, they we'd all. been in each other's world from since. day one, I mean, for a long time. Got. it. Very tight. Even when uh you know. even when my sister passed away, we were like we were unsettled on. Thanksgiving and we would go to my.

brother-in-law's parents' house for. Thanksgiving. >> Wow. >> So they were our damn I mean we were all. tight. So, we all sat down until my. nephew goes, "I want to come live with. y'all." Which was just I mean, man, we. had a we had a I guess Tate was four, four, six, four, and maybe seven and. then 13. And so, my my two boys got an. older brother like that. >> Wow. >> And so, he's 13. The girls were still in.

Georgia and they were uh Jordan was in. her first year of college and then our. middle niece Chris, she was in her. midway through her junior year of high. school. >> She stayed there. >> So she stayed there. No reason to uproot. her until came to live with us. And so. you know, man, we wake up and we're. retrofitting uh we were living in our. guest house while we were building. uh our main home. Mhm. >> So, we retrofit him a bedroom and man,

Suddenly, you had a teenager. >> We had a teenager and man, we've got to. deal with, you know, we're dealing with. a new kid, but man, we're dealing with a. kid that don't understand. that doesn't understand why life has. went this way. And we're dealing with. two other kids at a long distance. So, man, you know, we've just been in the, you know, it's just kind of what you do. and you learn as you go. And now, you.

know, fast forward, uh, the oldest, Jordan, she's got two beautiful little. boys. I mean, man, they're, you know, I'm going to treat them like my grand. they're my grandb babies.

around and have a beer in the evening. and so you know and you know I look at. you know when you look at what my wife. got I mean my wife went from two boys. which I you know my wife went from. managing two boys to like having two. older girls that she's trying to fit in. their lives. Well, she's she's on the. phone with them and man, they're talking. boys. They're talking. >> I mean, they're talking, >> what do I do with this boy? What do I do. with. >> clothes? What do I do with college? Man,

I mean, I remember she'd be on the phone. for hours. One of them would break up, one of them be crying, one of them this, and you know, so it was really honored. that we had them to turn to, and then. they had a support group down, and we. also had a support group down there. But. man, when I look at how those kids have. uh none of them have wound up with any. any serious like stuff that we've ever. had to be like, >> "Yeah, >> get your [ __ ] together." You know, we've. never had to do one of those. We just.

have to try to make sure they. they get the most out of life and and. understand they got dealt a um you know, they got dealt a weird uh un unfortunate. set of circumstances. And then, you. know, as I've told my story through the. years, I mean, man, I'll come up and. there'll be families that have they lost. five people in a car wreck. I mean, you. know, you you can always create a. narrative where where you got it bad, but then you can go dig deep and you can.

find some other people that. >> that uh that have had unfortunate. >> Oh, yeah. There's always some way to be. thankful in spaces. You know, >> Dolly Pardon passed away. Look at the. life she lived, 80 years old, and you. know, she just lost her longtime. husband. You know, heck, she probably. was lost since then. I'm not trying to. >> Yeah. >> all that, but but you know, everybody's. life take I I tell people and you've. you've already lived. >> I mean, just knowing your story. I mean,

you've already lived through a lot with. >> Yeah. >> personal stuff that you conquered and. stuff, man. And the beauty of your your. story is you've told everybody that. So. when people start when people start. going, man, I'm having a rough patch. But I. remember when Theo Vaughn said this, this is, you know, you can help people. out just by telling your story and them. not feeling like they're alone. And I. feel like when people hear about me. losing.

uh people in an unfortunate way, you. know, it can help them in the long run. I think transparency, I think, you know, you know the deal. I mean, everybody. thinks you're the only one trapped in. something, you know. >> Yeah. Everybody's going through things. and Yeah. You try to share what you can. from it. >> Um to help yourself and to help others. or not. It's not like you're trying to. help others, but just Yeah. You try. Yeah. We're all just trying our best to. be alive, you know? >> Well, and I see, you know, like God, man. And I mean I worry like you're. worried we I know we're talking about.

beef prices and stuff but man when I see. I mean you just just see all the stuff. going on where different groups and. cultures in this country are against. each other man it just breaks my heart. I don't know. I wish wish there was a. easy fix to make everybody just be like. >> Yeah. It seems like we should. >> tug it out. >> Yeah. >> Extreme on any side is just not good in. my opinion. We're just as as as people. on the planet, as just even a being of. God, just feeling like we we should all.
