Special Guest Episode: A Visit With Chris Logan pt. 1
In this episode, we get to visit with local dj, Chris Logan.
We have a few laughs, a dose of nostalgia, radio, AI, technology, who would win Musk or Zuckerberg and alot more!
Another episode, r2ro. We keepin' the special guest appearances goin' on, this one also bringin' in I guess I don't know. What do you do for us, chris? Are you like our? What do you producer? You're like you're the only radio-trained person on the mic, right now ever on this whole podcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and Eric got my good mic, so, oh, man, so I sound more like you. Yeah, no, I mean, yeah, I guess producer would be the right Producer, yeah right word?
Speaker 3:I guess yes.
Speaker 2:I don't think of myself as anything, but yeah.
Speaker 1:So we're gonna bring him on and let him. He's been listening to us for eight, ten episodes, yeah, and now he gets to chime in on some of these topics and see how much a hole he can dig for himself.
Speaker 3:It looks like he's been sittin' back itchin' a little bit.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, I hear him laugh back there sometimes.
Speaker 2:I mean, y'all do say some funny stuff. Yeah, there are some times that I wish I had a mic just to chime in, but I don't wanna mess up y'all's podcast. Oh, I think that would be dope.
Speaker 4:You should, you should try it. You should try and mess it up.
Speaker 3:Yeah, kinda like the DJ. It would be 95-5, they'd be playing some music and then the DJ would be like down here with me. He would be like, yeah, that's how it should be. It's like a hype man All of a sudden man, the song's playing and all of a sudden you just hyping. Oh man, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5:I've missed those commercials when they would talk about the different nights, and I don't be around the block. So what was his name? It was a drummer.
Speaker 4:It was a.
Speaker 2:And Troy.
Speaker 4:D. They're gonna be climbing up to the rafters.
Speaker 2:They got the Texas plates all the way from Crowley.
Speaker 4:No doubt, no doubt.
Speaker 2:No, so yeah I mean it's kinda weird being on the other end of a podcast.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's just, you're usually on the mic and now you're having to listen to us.
Speaker 2:Yeah, now I'm just hanging, so what's the reason why I'm on?
Speaker 5:We had some things we had been wanting to talk about that we knew you could definitely chime in on oh dang, all right.
Speaker 1:And plus we hear you laugh back there every once in a while, so we know you got some shit to say, so we're gonna let you. Let it rip, buddy.
Speaker 2:One of the ones where I really wanted to comment was the first ever podcast that y'all did with the music stuff. Right, but was it the best? Rap the best, the five best hip-hop artists.
Speaker 5:Yeah, it was supposed to be the best dead rappers and that thing devolved real quickly yeah yeah, that, yeah, talking about rap in general. Yeah, and it was supposed to be solos and then we were talking about groups. I mean, it was all over the place. Yeah, we just basically talked about hip-hop for a while.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we all had computers.
Speaker 2:We all were about it dude. Yeah, we all had computers. We were like oh, I had computers.
Speaker 1:We were coming in front of a dude who's like radio trained, right, so we're like thinking that we gotta be all prepared, we're gonna do some research, so like we could call out each other. And then it turned into we just fucking show up and talk shit on a microphone, bringing my wife, let her talk shit.
Speaker 2:That episode was rough. You really put yourself out there with Christy here.
Speaker 1:I told you that's my life, dude. And then we have a. I have two of her, One that is 30-something years old and one that's nine years old. So that's just what I live with that every day, what you just witnessed is something that we watched.
Speaker 5:They just decided to have one of their arguments in front of a microphone Because they have them in front of us.
Speaker 2:Is that how?
Speaker 5:it is all the time they have them in front of. I mean well, you notice that we instigated parts of those fights too, there's some gaslighting going on. This is how we hang out too, because I'll still poke a fight with those two. I see it.
Speaker 2:It made me all worried about offending people on the other episodes and she straight up just went to town. I was like oh dang. I had to put an extra warning on those two episodes.
Speaker 5:Yeah, you have to start using line with her as much as you use it with his daughter For sure.
Speaker 1:I'll probably need to use the word line with her A couple of times during the episode. I looked across the table and opened my eyes really wide. She knows what that means. I felt bad, dude.
Speaker 2:She even called you by your first name and your middle name.
Speaker 1:I thought she was going to give me a middle name and she's like dude something I'm like you're going to give her something.
Speaker 4:She pulled it back and I just looked at her.
Speaker 1:I'm like I thought she was going to give her my social security number and I just threw it. I got scared man.
Speaker 2:I turned the other way.
Speaker 1:I bleeped that out my life. It's good.
Speaker 2:We don't know how to bleep stuff, though, chris, that's OK. I checked the box that says explicit material, so we're good. Yeah, we're good.
Speaker 1:And we named it in a method in which people know that we might say something offensive.
Speaker 5:I guess we might want to censor out your name.
Speaker 1:Yeah, maybe, so Probably so.
Speaker 5:But that's where radio training comes in. Yeah, I know how to edit that. Do they give you like? Is that radio classes?
Speaker 2:You've been doing this. How long 1999 was when I first started. Wow, yeah, it was weird. A lot of people asked me the story of how I got into radio. And it was just being around music and DJing. I just always liked music and decided to give it a shot. And, god, to honest truth, I forgot what magazine I was looking at. It wasn't any nasty, you know, like Newdy Magazine or anything, but they had an ad in the back of it and it was for this company called a Radio and Recording Connection. So it was just like this learn on the job thing.
Speaker 2:I did not go to college at all, right, graduated high school in 93, went straight to work with my dad and I was building houses, but I still DJed and stuff. I was still always into music. And when I saw that ad I called them. It was this on the job training basically, and so I signed up. I forgot what it was. I had to pay a little bit of money. They asked for like three radio stations that, like I, would want to work at or learn at. So I think I put KS&B, maybe I did Planet Radio and then I did maybe KTDY the legendary Dave Steele who's still on the radio. He was one of the ones that was interested and took me on, so like I had this binder of material, Like when I showed up, all prepared and learned it.
Speaker 2:And then, like once a week, I would go and meet with Dave and we would do some things and like record a couple of things, and I had to send some air checks back to this radio and recording connection. And I did the course and they said I passed, I got my foot in the door, that's awesome.
Speaker 1:So your voice is radio trained voice.
Speaker 2:I mean not really dude, I guess.
Speaker 4:You do sound off there and on there the kind of the same.
Speaker 2:Like yeah, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad.
Speaker 4:Well, it's like I don't either. I'm not really saying it is, but after 24 years, nobody's.
Speaker 2:Right, I don't know the book. Now, really, honestly, nobody gives a shit to get in the radio anymore, honestly.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I wonder what you think between the terrestrial radio and the streaming, because I know you've been in both. Yeah, you're in both right now.
Speaker 2:Now I mean there's not a young crop of people coming up that want to be on the radio. You know they're like, there's just not. And then like we're in a market here where no one leaves this Lafayette market and if you listen to the radio you know exactly what I'm talking about. Yeah, just like everybody is almost still there. Like I worked at it was Comcor and then Regent and turned into Town Square Media, so like when I started part time doing some part time work in fact CJ got me on KTDY. Oh yeah, I was on for free from like midnight to three for like I don't know, two or three months, get in the swing of things. So I did that for free. What do they do?
Speaker 5:now with that Is that they still have people or they use some AI or something like that, I mean especially now they could probably figure out some way to make a voice to do it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there is AI, but no one around here uses it. Right, there's actually a company. I think I forgot the name of the company, but they're a radio industry company and they develop AI and there is this station I think it's in Michigan who took it on and they just train the AI to learn about the local area and learn the song so they can give traffic updates, they can give weather updates, everything. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2:And there's this girl I forgot her name, I think it's like Ali or something like that, and she has an AI version of herself that's on the air. Oh, man really Like that had hit the like, the trade magazines, the trade industry, maybe about a month or so ago, but they're pitching it. It went from corporate radio getting rid of live people to save money and then they would voice tracks like people would record yeah, and you know, you got people from California.
Speaker 5:They might be on the radio. Yeah, they're all over the place. Yeah, you don't know. Yeah, so it went from that to freaking AI.
Speaker 2:Now, Crazy thing with that man is where is that going to end?
Speaker 5:Yeah, when is that going to end, dude? But as we're, you're talking about AI replacing people like you. By the same time, people like you are using AI to do even more things, which made me that I could never, do, can never Yep.
Speaker 4:So you saw, the Twitter girl sent some of y'all.
Speaker 5:Yes, there's a girl on Twitter.
Speaker 4:She's a virtual model. Well, she's an influencer.
Speaker 1:Yes, and she's got a million followers.
Speaker 4:Okay, she's got it. She's wears these tiny, tiny little bikinis. She looks like a perfect 10 model and she is completely generated. She's AI. But now you scroll through her comments and you see all these guys was like, oh my God, I would drink your bathwater and shit like that. And you see other people coming in. It's like it's AI dummy. Yeah, she's got a million followers, though.
Speaker 2:You know, that's one thing that bothers me about the AI thing as well. Whoa, she's AI generated. Yes, yeah, dude, that's crazy, it's fucking creepy.
Speaker 5:It's weird, it's a lot of them. Every post it's in her car Dang. It's wild, it's really weird.
Speaker 2:But that's another thing that bothers me is people that can't tell the difference.
Speaker 5:Right, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2:I cannot tell a difference and it's getting tougher and tougher. It was a point where older people got on social media and, let's say, they couldn't tell that a photograph was Photoshop. And for us you know we've been through that and it's like Eric's been through it.
Speaker 4:It's like you, you like you know, that's fake, but then people believe it.
Speaker 5:Yeah, this girl believed it.
Speaker 4:I think it was like 2006 and we read legends.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we talked about it. We talked about it yeah.
Speaker 5:He had somebody Photoshopped atop of his head when it was currently like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah yeah. I didn't talk about that in the episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5:Because he told her girl I'll show you a picture with me with a mullet, but she couldn't tell then.
Speaker 2:No, it's dude.
Speaker 5:It's when nobody really knew what Photoshop was Like.
Speaker 4:I found one person that could do it.
Speaker 5:But I think our senses get refined.
Speaker 4:Yeah, like you're always going to be able to tell a difference.
Speaker 5:Yeah Well, even then. Now we can look at things and go like that. We would have been like man, that's Photoshop. Back then we didn't know, Right. Correct Right, we assume things are right, auto-tune, now you, you can tell even when somebody's slightly auto-tuned, because you're so custom to hear and hear now, yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't like I've gotten to a point where I almost, when I'm looking at something on the internet, social media, whatever proved to me it is real. I don't believe things are real anymore. I think that all that stuff is fake, just like I used to watch TV and say that that's fake, that's not really happening. Right, that person didn't really die. But, like you're right, dude, some people they lose touch of that.
Speaker 5:I mean, I've had conversations so you're now like distrust and verify.
Speaker 1:Correct. That could be real. I don't think it might not be real. Let me go see if it is real and then and then do some more research and see. Oh okay, yeah, that's factual stuff, it's real, Not knowing. I know people that think that there's people sitting in a room at Facebook fucking with them, putting shit on their feet, fucking with them, and I'm like that shit don't work. Like that bro, Like he's hot to fucking Facebook. I'm like you know you don't have to use that, right.
Speaker 5:Like you interact with those things, so it gives you more of you said this is what I want to see yeah. Right, I end up with cereal cups. Yeah, because I just want to eat cereal, that's what I had to tell them.
Speaker 1:I'm like you need to stop commenting on things you don't like and comment on the things you do like, and you'll see more of it. I was like I don't see that on my Facebook feed and I got puppies, four wheelers. Well, I bought my wife clothes, so I get women's underwear and shit like that.
Speaker 5:But you're not walking around angry about it.
Speaker 1:Nope, I'm good bro Like and I know some of they shouldn't be real, so I know.
Speaker 2:I mean, Facebook does a decent job of that, but TikTok is on top of that algorithm of like. If you watch a video for more than 10 seconds, like in your feed and your page, you're getting more and more and more of that.
Speaker 5:They don't even track, just if you like it and save it, I mean that's when they like know you really like it, but they will notice, they know how long you pause. Yeah, even when you're scrolling through pictures, yeah, you ever seen that?
Speaker 4:It was like a documentary Seven minutes. It was almost like it was a guy with people in his head but they were all sitting around a table like controlling him and it was a movie, but they were trying to figure out how to keep him on Facebook longer and that's the whole thing. The whole entire movie was oh shit, and it was the people behind or it wasn't in his head, it was the people at Facebook.
Speaker 1:Yeah, sitting there. It was a social experiment or something like that. It was during the election time and people were freaking out because they were like, oh my God, they're like trying to control society. And it's like, well no, if you really look at it, the programmers are just doing what their bosses are saying, which is let's see how we keep our users on our app longer. Write this into the program, and then it evolved into this crazy thing that later becomes like controlling of your life or whatever. Right, yeah.
Speaker 4:But it was just.
Speaker 1:People trying to do their job really well, and they did, and then yeah, this is what we get.
Speaker 5:I give you more of what you want to say. Yeah, yep, you said you liked it. Here you go. So you can choose to be an angry person and only interact with angry things or you be like fuck that.
Speaker 2:Yeah where's the puppies? Yeah, it's true, man, and a lot of that digital marketing, advertising, all that stuff is all based on intent, man, that's what it is. They know where you've been. They might not know specifically that Chris went look at those hay balls on Go to jmaxcom or something like that but I mean they do know that my user and my device did and they know all and then they start serving you those ads. He wants them, hay balls. Let's start serving those ads.
Speaker 5:I know you got into the streaming radio business. I guess now you get more feedback on how long your listeners are.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean because I guess with terrestrial radio.
Speaker 5:How well do you know your audience?
Speaker 2:It's different. Like terrestrial radio, they still have ratings. Mm-hmm. It's a big misconception about ratings. I feel like, yeah, especially when people weren't watching the NFL anymore, I'm just gonna turn my TV off and I'm not gonna give me ratings and that's not really how it works. You know like that rating system is almost bullshit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh, I've had a radio exec Explain how it goes down and I'm like dude, that's fucking bullshit.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's some 1970s technology. Like I really thought by this time that it would have gotten better, like it would have been some sort of signal coming back from the car or something. You see that they have that. We don't have it in this market. I think it was probably mid-2000s they came out with what's called like a people meter, but it's only in the major Cities that have on the online station.
Speaker 1:Can you see like for us on the podcast. Right we can see how many.
Speaker 2:Download all that stuff? Yeah, but where it's coming from right? We got people in the Philippines. Yeah, sure you can see real time.
Speaker 1:So you can see if I'm listening to you in Florida. You can see, you can see somebody listen in Florida.
Speaker 2:So somebody listening overseas, wherever yeah that's like how long they listen like all that. That's real shit. That's that you can, yeah sale to advertise.
Speaker 1:You're like you know cuz I spend money in radio advertisements right. And I'll tell you, whenever I first started doing it, I was like that's a lot of money to not know Really how well. Yeah, well, we have so many people in our market and then we have this many listeners and I'm like you don't know that. And then I found out how the ratings system worked and I was like you really don't know that shit. Yeah, you're trying to spend you try to maybe spend that couple thousand a month on a 30 second spot.
Speaker 1:But if you can give them some real data and say, okay, we're online, this is how many people are listening, this is where we listening at this how many minutes during a day to listen. This is their ages and right, so I'm like, okay, hell, yeah, I can get down with that. That's some data that I can take a look at and roll it, see.
Speaker 2:That's why I feel that the whole digital marketing side no, look, it's everything tried and true? Absolutely not. But digital marketing caught fire, I feel because of what you just said. Like with digital marketing, whether you run Google ads, you run some kind of geo fencing campaign, you run a Facebook ad, you can actually see, like you can see that I reached 10,000 people with this. You can see that 200 people clicked on that ad. If you look at your Google analytics on your website, you might be able to match Okay, well, I had 200 new clicks, you know. So it's trackable, it's traceable, it's almost tangible to where Radio's, not those traditional means, yeah, tv's kind of like that. Yeah, you know billboards. You can always say on a billboard all well, you know 1.1 million people pass on Johnston Street and it's right they do, but do they really are 1.1 million eyes on your?
Speaker 5:billboard, not when Gordon's right next to it In the middle of an avocado.
Speaker 2:And then in argument you can say I reach 10,000 people in my Facebook ad, but did 10,000 people see it? No, but at least you have a little bit of data to back it up to where you can see.
Speaker 1:Well, you can compare it, you can say well, I saw 10,000 people saw the ad.
Speaker 1:This many people clicked on the ad. This many people went to my site. This many people think I had converted sales. So then I can compare. Okay, how many it's the 10-nose-1, yes. Right, if it's in sales. If I can get to 10-nose I'm probably going to get a yes somewhere isn't there. So I need to 10,000 views, then I'll get a sale. Now I know I need to get 20,000 to hopefully get to this revenue spot, but do I need to spend 10 grand in a month on radio there?
Speaker 1:ain't no real numbers behind that.
Speaker 5:That's the flip side of the Facebook thing, right? The algorithm goes through all these things to figure out what to show you more of, so it also knows all the things that you do in life and they take around and they sell that to that. Google and Facebook convince this shit.
Speaker 2:I know dude.
Speaker 5:You go look at, I think, the top 10 companies in the world in market cap, and five of them are the Apples and the Googles and the Microsofts and the Amazons. That's half of what they do is sell you what you like. Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 4:So the other day I figured out you could take Facebook and turn off the outside of Facebook stuff where they track you. So I went do that and when I was doing that it said there was a morning like a caveat. There's like, hey, there's a chance that the app you're going on. They probably just tell us that information anyway.
Speaker 1:And I'm like what the fuck it was, like all right, all right, you can turn it off, but we still get the third party apps.
Speaker 3:Tell us Tesla, so you're talking about big companies. Tesla's stock prices.
Speaker 5:Number nine, number nine, number nine what Market cap Tesla? You're talking about top 10 companies, tesla.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah so number nine is not a car company. They're a technology company, Correct they? The reason Tesla's market cap is so big is because of how much technology Elon and his crew have developed.
Speaker 5:There's no way Tesla should be that much bigger than GM and Toyota and Honda by just by selling cars.
Speaker 1:If it's a car company, there is no way. Yeah, they absolutely don't. Well, they sell chargers and they sell charging technology and a bunch of other stuff they own patents yeah, he owns a shit ton of patents.
Speaker 3:I forgot the number, but it's a lot.
Speaker 5:I think I always said too, I thought he was just pushing electric car thing to make everybody else do it, which he did. Yeah, To probably sell some battery technology. Yeah, Because he's really. You look he's, everything he's doing is about batteries. And now stuff in the sky, Do you know he?
Speaker 1:so he's SpaceX too right? When I first started going to SpaceX sites, I see all these Tesla's. I'm like man, all these people are working for the same company. And then now they only they get like discounts on Tesla's. Well, what it is is he's providing them for them to rent. So when you go to a SpaceX site, there might be a ton of Tesla's there on chargers and the employees can rent and use them. That's why, I'll bro Nice.
Speaker 2:Let me ask you this question. They end up fighting in the octagon. Who wins?
Speaker 1:Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg, Elon saying him because he's bigger.
Speaker 4:Elon said that he's going WWE on it and I don't triple H, is that? Maybe it's triple H, one of them, retweeted them and said bring it on, let's do it. Brother Like to say the word, so you got WWE people coming in.
Speaker 5:The cowardly heel is what he's doing from WWE, the ones that used to come out and then always found a way to not fight or get out of the fight or act injured.
Speaker 4:Right. Well, at first he said he was going to be just be a whale, he was just going to fall on top of him.
Speaker 5:He's like I'm a just blubber. Then I think the latest one says he has to go get checked out by his doctor. Might have to have surgery, Like yeah, he's playing the WWE thing perfectly.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 4:My money is probably on.
Speaker 5:It'll never happen. It's not, but it's going to be like. What was it? Oh, there was a WWE guy used to always come out and then look in the ring and be like you're not good enough and walk back.
Speaker 1:He did it for two years.
Speaker 5:This is how he started his career. He didn't wrestle anybody for like a whole year Half of it was. I think he would just say that the announcer wasn't saying his name. Right, you didn't say it, you walked back, that's what I think will happen, but probably from. That is I mean, I have friends that do MMA. Bigger doesn't mean you're going to win if that other dude knows how to climb on you like a spider monkey.
Speaker 2:Zuckerberg trains in Jiu Jitsu yeah.
Speaker 5:And won a tournament. I mean, I don't know how many people were on the payroll in the North Korean tournament.
Speaker 2:We won the U-Triple S in World Series man. There was four teams there.
Speaker 1:Some 10 year olds. Is that you think it's really going to happen, or like I guess it could, because then they had some local guys do that right, they did it for a fundraiser. The pizza guy Dino's do Tim and somebody else.
Speaker 2:Yeah, tim, and from Caleb want Bob Moore.
Speaker 1:They like really fought though.
Speaker 5:Yeah, they, yeah they yeah, they fought back in the day we had some fights amongst the bars on purpose, so the bar out. I ended up working that had an actual boxing ring inside the bar. Talking about it was the stadium club.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, when Shannon had it like where a showbots is. Yeah, yeah, I fought there, dude, we did a planner radio thing.
Speaker 1:Wait, you fought in the boxing ring. Yeah, put the gloves on. We had, we had these. I mean, we didn't really fight.
Speaker 5:There was also a local boxing club that would come do exhibition stuff. That was cool. And then one time we had Bloody Midget Wrestling.
Speaker 3:That was pretty fun too. They called it that, not me the stadium club.
Speaker 5:Beautiful.
Speaker 4:Right yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 5:They had these things where we all, he, the guy Shannon owned a bunch of bars in town and he put together this thing, which was great, and he'd have different people that worked at each bar go fight. He had a whole night of this, which drove all of these alcoholics that are bartenders to go watch their friends beat up each other, but with the big gloves man, it was great.
Speaker 1:They should do it. Elon and Zulk should do it.
Speaker 2:Yep, I really think they should. Elon said the other day that he would stream it on Twitter.
Speaker 5:Well that caused the problem, because then people was like you could have done pay-per-view and donated more money to charity.
Speaker 2:So no matter what he does, he's evil. But he said he was donating to some kind of veterans charity.
Speaker 4:So Zulk screenshot that, apparently, and did it on his own little thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 4:And he said why don't we use a platform that'll actually work? So Elon screenshots his phone of Facebook going down and like it was the news article of the like the last day or something Facebook's down, instagram's down. And he said, oh, like one of these.
Speaker 1:It's so fucking that guy throws out so much hate. It's so crazy how, and like the richest dude in the world and he was throwing hate like that whenever he was like almost broke too, like crashing rockets and like had to launch this one, otherwise his company's done, he was throwing out hate. There's something that those people that don't apologize for shit.
Speaker 5:No they just keep going forward.
Speaker 1:That's what. That's what we're going to do here. That's what we're doing. So apparently we have offended people who like sprinkles, and we're going to be on the roll for others now too. So wait.
Speaker 2:so I got pissed at the old no well, yeah, Craig's kind of yeah, oh so I'm not going to invite her next.
Speaker 4:No hell, no, no, no, no. We ain't got that kind of.
Speaker 1:You know you ain't ready for this shit. That she's gonna say anyway.
Speaker 5:That little stepper, yeah, so give her a microphone.
Speaker 3:I think we should be training her to be a standup comic, like, just get it over with now. Yeah, I'm down by the time she's like 15, she'd be like Chappelle, I'm down because she told me she won't wipe my ass when I get older.
Speaker 1:She's going to have to make enough money to pay someone to do that. We had the Skittles thing in one of the episodes, right? Well, I proof the episodes when you send that, I proof it in my car, when I'm driving or whatever. Well, I was picking her up from like a friend's house, so she jumps in. We're in the middle of the Sprinkles talk and the first thing that comes out her mouth is she's like well, y'all going to offend some people who like sprinkles. I'm like well, it might be kind of the point. I don't really know.
Speaker 2:It's bad. Now, man, it really is.
Speaker 5:Yeah, it's like they're not ready for the world. I like we were.
Speaker 4:No, I'm not ready for this world.
Speaker 5:Yeah, but.
Speaker 2:I know this is while nine years old, I had already been given a key for two years and said take care of yourself for a couple of hours.
Speaker 5:Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4:Me and Tegan were talking about it the other day, because it was like I don't know two and we were not doing anything and I said I would be on my bicycle. I got a left at eight and I won't be home until the sun goes down.
Speaker 2:You'd have been 50 miles in.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I'd have been on Mall Street and I'm from Canterbury.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 4:Like we'd have been all over the place, but now she don't even go outside. Well, I mean, she goes outside, but not very far. Yeah, dude, very different.
Speaker 5:I mean, we didn't nobody knew where we were. I didn't know, but also didn't know anything about anything else either.
Speaker 1:Right, we knew what was in front of us. We knew we had to like strange or danger. If somebody was on the road trying to give us candy, that was the thing, right. Oh, don't go to the car. They're trying to get you to the car with candy White van.
Speaker 5:Now you could do that With free candy. Paint it on the side. That's how bad it was back there. That's how dumb we were as kids. You had to tell us don't go to the free candy van, don't go to the free candy van.
Speaker 1:But now, now that's, it's in a device right in front of you, you know, but that's we were talking about.
Speaker 5:They don't look at the device as much as we do now. Yeah, that's true, I was also stuck in front of that TV and the video games and all that. We were the first ones with all that stuff.
Speaker 2:But that's a question I always had. People say just live in the moment or put the phone down. If we would have had that back when we were a kid, we probably would be in front of the device.
Speaker 3:To me it's just a product of what you're growing up in you know what I mean, like it's a little bit of both, though, we had the Nintendo and the Sega and all that in the house, and we still play outside.
Speaker 5:There's something to those reels when they're like for real.
Speaker 4:parents would kick you out of that yeah get out and go play outside, but like even in those old TV shows, the dad since they're Reese's newspaper while everybody's trying to, the kids are trying to do stuff.
Speaker 2:So yeah, everybody they always had something. Mom was in the kitchen cooking.
Speaker 4:Yeah, everybody had something to distract them. She had an apron on.
Speaker 5:Mom, would tell you about when she was little and like they'd go to grandma's house for Christmas and the kids weren't allowed inside at all.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it wasn't room for them.
Speaker 5:The grandmother would cook some food, like some fried chicken, and put it in a pot on the back porch, and the kids would run up and eat pieces of chicken while they were playing.
Speaker 1:And I'm like for real.
Speaker 5:It's good, but also like everybody had 10 kids. So when you went to grandma's house it was like 50 people yeah.
Speaker 1:No, house was like a two bedroom house, yeah.
Speaker 5:You could eat some fried chicken on the back porch.
Speaker 4:Come and get it.
Speaker 5:So that's when I think we think we're feral and they're like just throwing a pot of chicken in the yard.
Speaker 3:Yeah, Come and get it.
Speaker 5:They're like checking to see that all the kids grab a piece.
Speaker 4:No One didn't just like they had enough pieces. No.
Speaker 1:You make it or not, bro, that's your bad survival.
Speaker 5:Now you're over here like I know you have arguments for your kids to try and get them to eat one piece of chicken.
Speaker 5:Yeah, and if you didn't like it. Oh my god, Either you would just then eat. I pulled that on my mom one time, though, because she's like you're going to eat that she also was trying to make me eat everything on the plate. You're going to eat everything on that plate, and I'm like I am not. She's like you're going to sit there till you do. I'm like I'm going to sit there till you go to bed, and I did.
Speaker 1:Watch this.
Speaker 5:I left that plate right there on that table too.
Speaker 1:I had to see it when I got up in the morning.
