The Gospel According to Jeromy
Keeping it Light
What happens when you pair the existential with the whimsical? We wade into the hilarity and warmth of our listener community, starting with Brian from Texas and his poignant story of friendship and loss. Then there's Tammy from Phoenix, whose house show invitation has us daydreaming about Grand Canyon gigs. Oh, and that gaffe with "memoir" on our posters? Let's just say we're keeping it as a badge of quirky charm.
Capes and instruments won't save musicians hiding from the spotlight, but they sure make for lively debate about on-stage attire. We toss around lighthearted ideas, from pants-free performances to the star power of our own Jennifer, as praised by Carl from Tennessee. On a more introspective note, Brian from Ohio has us pondering the theological implications of a future-known by God, while conspiracy theories and beloved Sesame Street characters round out our joyful explorations.
From childhood antics with marbles and cassette tapes to the unpredictable journey of parenthood, we cover it all. Opening up about birthing stories and family gatherings, we celebrate the evolving dynamics between parents and children. As we share stories of teenage crushes and unexpected life paths, we reflect on how our youthful dreams have shaped—and been reshaped by—our lives. Join us for laughter, reflection, and the comforting chaos of family traditions.
You can really see the glare off your glasses. Do you usually wear your glasses? I try not to Okay.
Speaker 2:I can't see you guys, though, really, but it's okay, you can't see us, you're just blurry, all right are we rolling?
Speaker 1:Yeah, everybody, welcome back to the Gospel. According to Jeremy, I named it this because it's the good news. According to me, Okay. So yeah, for a long time I didn't have any feedback, any pushback about the name, but recently gotten some oh, have you?
Speaker 2:If you've got a you got new pushback, new pushback. We got a little bit at the beginning.
Speaker 1:Well, there are some folks that maybe want to air our broadcast. A couple of companies that I can't.
Speaker 3:This is what happens.
Speaker 1:I can't mention it now.
Speaker 3:I can't mention it yet the man.
Speaker 1:The man gets involved and wants to change it Could be exciting but they had said that maybe they don't like the title, okay, and they were kind of worried. They were like, do you think you'd be open to changing it? And I was like, yeah, I mean I'm not that married to it.
Speaker 2:I mean, I just feel like we all should. Basically, a very nice man wants to put our song on the radio.
Speaker 3:I'm signing, you're signing, we're all signing. I don't know I kind of feel like a sellout, but it's your gospel, yeah.
Speaker 1:I'll start start my own podcast. We will totally sell out, no problem, this podcast, and I'm going to explain.
Speaker 3:Is this why I've got the new background?
Speaker 2:Because we're getting bought out. It's our fighting picture.
Speaker 1:The background has more to do with you, Drew.
Speaker 2:We just needed you to remember.
Speaker 1:Well, that's part of it, Because we were a year in to recording this Wow, and I think last year you tried to quit twice and recently you've been away some weeks.
Speaker 2:And it's lame.
Speaker 1:Great episode with Joel, by the way. We get tons when you're away. We get tons of you know, tons for us of comments of going where's Drew? We missed Drew.
Speaker 3:Tons is one.
Speaker 2:I got it. I got it, we're gonna read. We got ones of comments.
Speaker 1:We're gonna read some comments, but this week I even got a comment very first thing. Uh, brian from texas says first off drew the gospel. According to jeremy, first off drew don't get it twisted.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and so the brian from texas. Yeah, it's brian from, so I love brian.
Speaker 1:The backdrop is just for people to remember that you might be on the show that's not my gospel it's about us just let's keep one thing, then you should put it in front of me so I can just see it, I can't even, I don't even know what's back there, just know it's there just know that. Well, you're on my shoulder, over your right shoulder is me that one time I wore a hat, and over your left shoulder is the angel Jennifer.
Speaker 3:I was going to ask which one was the angel and which one was the devil.
Speaker 2:I look real, mean, I look mad.
Speaker 1:Brian from Texas said first off, drew, sorry for the loss of your friend. People come into our lives for a season and I'm glad you had him for that season. This is about the Mike Weaver episode Great guy, so funny. I love their music but never really thought about who they were. But you guys, I've practically been stalking since 1998. So I guess that's when we saw you perform live Great discussions today.
Speaker 3:Hutch had Jeremy and Jennifer turned down a little bit, but I'd probably do that too if I was producing a podcast with my parents on. That's funny and also my fault, not Hutch's.
Speaker 1:Well done, that's a good one, brian, there have been some great content in this post so far, but my eyes keep getting drawn to the word memoir on all these posters. I love that none of y'all are OCD enough that you have to replace these with corrected spelling.
Speaker 3:I didn't know, it was not spelled correctly.
Speaker 2:Somebody told us a while ago that memoir is not spelled right. Memoir on all these pictures.
Speaker 1:Oh right, Is it evidently spelled incorrectly?
Speaker 2:We don't feel like doing the work.
Speaker 1:He said to be honest, I might be sad if you ever fix it.
Speaker 2:Oh, we'll see, we can't now.
Speaker 1:Oh, thanks Brian.
Speaker 3:Thanks for giving us an excuse. That was all Brian. That, that was all Brian.
Speaker 1:That was all, brian.
Speaker 3:Brian's awesome Thanks, brian.
Speaker 1:Tammy Schaefer. She's from Phoenix.
Speaker 3:Tell Brian if he wants A house show in Texas. We're going on tour soon.
Speaker 1:We are. We actually got an invite For Northern Ohio.
Speaker 3:Is Texas on the way To there?
Speaker 1:No, Well, you can Wow, you can go around the other way.
Speaker 2:You can take a big, long detour.
Speaker 1:Tammy said Still love to have you do a house show, so Tammy wants us to come to Phoenix. That I'm feeling, I'm down with it January.
Speaker 2:That's a good winter show to do.
Speaker 1:Tammy Schaefer, january let's do it Okay, about second, third week of January, when we're just depressed here, let's go to Phoenix.
Speaker 2:It's like we're past Christmas. You don't want this junky weather anymore.
Speaker 1:And this is Phoenix area, so she could be like near the mountains and stuff.
Speaker 3:I've never been to the Grand Canyon. Is that by Phoenix?
Speaker 2:It's a couple hours away.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you can get there.
Speaker 2:You should go if you're out there, okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's worth it.
Speaker 2:It's worth seeing.
Speaker 1:Unraveled Soul Blog said wow, what a testimony to share. Life's changed and continue episode not about you okay, um turn around.
Speaker 2:You need to know who daisy yeah that's right, I see.
Speaker 3:I mean I could see jennifer's face while we're on the podcast looking like that, I don't need to turn that's right, because that's how I'm looking. That was her face during the intimacy disorder conversation.
Speaker 2:Man, I am not interested. I was telling you I wish I still had that vest. It's back around vest, or so in what?
Speaker 3:What are you wearing? What kind of chain is that?
Speaker 2:It was a bunch of chains actually. There's a whole bunch of necklaces going on.
Speaker 1:We use that chain for other stuff.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:You're disgusting. Daisy Gabrera said this was about the Mike Weaver episode too. Daisy Garbera said this is the first episode where Jennifer is not the thumbnail on the YouTube thing, which is so weird.
Speaker 2:Oh funny.
Speaker 1:So I mean I upload it to YouTube and I just type in the thing, and I have never changed the thumbnail. It always just picks what it wants.
Speaker 3:It always picks Jennifer.
Speaker 1:So 30 episodes of Jennifer and then Mike Weaver.
Speaker 2:They were like oh, he's actually kind of famous, so we need to put him on here.
Speaker 1:The algorithm wanted mike yeah, exactly so that's very funny. And then, uh, the next week it was back to you, or maybe that week it didn't like the way you look, probably because didn't you change my shot that week well, I did because I thought I see we did change a shot. Oh, that's right.
Speaker 2:it was like, oh, that bad, that's a bad shot of her.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she's looking rough, did you say? You've not repeated anything yet.
Speaker 2:I don't think I have, but I'm fixing to have to because I'm out of clothes.
Speaker 3:All right, and I don't have money to go shopping. Well, we're all making a lot on this podcast. I will say use the podcast budget and go shopping.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:We should have a wardrobe line item for you in the podcast budget.
Speaker 2:Okay, and the red? Mm-hmm, it's an investment.
Speaker 1:A Shin Shin 7 says great episode. Still remember the first time I met Mike Weaver and Jay at GMA Week Super great guys, you know. I had a couple of people talk about Jay. They said did you fall out when Mike said it was a quarter of a million dollars or something? Yes, yeah, that was shocking. John Mays and I had coffee last week and he goes, jeremy, do you believe he said that? I said, well, I had actually heard that story before but I don't know if he's ever told it.
Speaker 2:That's so funny that John Mays really does listen to this podcast.
Speaker 3:And I want to come to coffee with you and John Mays sometime. Oh, come on, let's do it, you're not invited, I don't get to go.
Speaker 1:John, text us and we'll. That would be fun, the three of us.
Speaker 3:Oh man, I would just sit there just geeking out.
Speaker 2:What about me?
Speaker 1:You're out, nah. Nah, we got to talk about boy stuff. You can bring it down.
Speaker 2:That is so lame.
Speaker 1:How there, like John and I talk about boy things.
Speaker 2:I don't even know what that is, I know what are we talking.
Speaker 1:John Doble? I don't know. I wanted to know if you guys knew what he was referring to here.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:All I got was a comment that said spoken like a guy who gets to hide behind a piano versus guys who get to hide behind a guitar. What do you think that's in?
Speaker 2:reference to I don't know Did Joel say something about. I wonder if that was about you not wearing pants. In reference to I don't know Did Joel say something about, I wonder if that was about you not wearing pants. Oh, that's it, it's probably about you not wearing pants. Yes, so on one of the previous episodes it was hot in here and Drew and I changed to the shorts.
Speaker 2:No, it was probably about the comment of you'd rather go out on stage with no pants than no shorts, no shorts, okay, okay, because these guys are saying they're buying guitars and he's saying you're buying a piano, that's probably what it is.
Speaker 1:So I could go out no pants. That makes sense. You totally could. But could you imagine-?
Speaker 2:But you'd still do like undies, You'd do boxers. Yeah, I'm going to run out of time so fast.
Speaker 1:But could you imagine how surprised the audience would be when? Because you know at the end just wave and stuff. Imagine if you sit up, imagine I stand up, and they're like that guy hasn't had no pants on talk about an encore.
Speaker 3:You're wearing pants today. I noticed, yeah, but I mean well, you're wearing pants.
Speaker 2:I noticed, yeah, I'm going pants, god um, okay, so that makes sense.
Speaker 1:carl carti from tennessee said love you guys. Jennifer is the star Keep this kind of content coming.
Speaker 2:Carl's a goat, though. This is what bothers me. I can't believe Carl said that. Thanks, Carl.
Speaker 3:Carl's awesome. I don't know him personally, but I follow his music. Yeah, he's great. He's awesome, he's great.
Speaker 1:But that's what bothers me about all of this. What people talk to me is when it's negative.
Speaker 3:That's true, I think it's the downside of your name being on the podcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:People feel like you already kind of have your you already get your juice from all that.
Speaker 1:The next time we're together, we're going to do a one. That's just the gospel, according to Jennifer, and we're just going to talk about you. All right, and we're going to do the gospel, according to Drew, and we're just going to talk about you wait, wait, wait, are we just, I don't want to talk about me yeah, it's going to be about you talk about what I want to talk it's going to be the good news.
Speaker 1:The bad news, according to jennifer the anti-gospel and the no news, according to drew, because he pays attention to nothing, literally.
Speaker 3:Um you'll probably something you'll quit for the. Your instagram is where I get all my news.
Speaker 2:You're welcome.
Speaker 3:I believe whatever Jennifer believes.
Speaker 1:I just follow her Instagram. Kelly Reed from California says Jeffrey Epstein was murdered.
Speaker 2:Thank you, I agree.
Speaker 3:So Kelly's over here Out of that whole episode.
Speaker 2:Thank you, Kelly.
Speaker 1:The thing that he wanted to comment on.
Speaker 2:I appreciate it, kelly, not the certainty of God. We know Kelly. Oh, kelly's appreciated not the certainty of god. Yeah, kelly's a boy, okay, so he's done zero I agree, but I just think that's the thing great minds think alike you know anyways.
Speaker 1:Uh, brian mclean from ohio. Hey, man, just wanted to reach out and tell you I really like the podcast. It's refreshing and less of a burden knowing that sometimes it's okay to have doubts about god's existence. One thing I thought of while y'all were asking if God knows the future and what that means if God allows something to happen. You asked if my child runs into traffic and I don't stop him, is it on me? Well, yes, it is, but I think you were looking at it backwards In this life. If we were to allow our child to die, that child would be leaving us, but God's on the other side. So if I were there and letting my child die means he comes to me tough for sure, but wanted to throw it out that he's- going to God.
Speaker 2:That's interesting.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's a good way to look at it, good perspective.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, it's not like yeah, they're not just meeting the dirt man at the end.
Speaker 3:That was a very thoughtful comment, I appreciate that. He's not done.
Speaker 2:Oh sorry, we cut you off, didn't mean to interrupt.
Speaker 1:No, let him finish. You all should ask more stuff like that. It's interesting to hear y'all's beliefs on stuff. Maybe next time you can cover chemtrails, the existence of aliens, covid being released on purpose and 9-11 being an inside job. Job. Jennifer would love it.
Speaker 2:Boy. He is right, I have so much to say about that whole list.
Speaker 1:This guy gets you, that's your podcast.
Speaker 2:He's awesome.
Speaker 1:He gets you. I love him.
Speaker 3:You can also text us comments now too, right there in those show notes.
Speaker 1:That's right Actually there's a phone number, phone number you can text us.
Speaker 3:I don't think so. I think it's just for texting. Try it and see what happens. Sue answers.
Speaker 2:Do I need lipstick?
Speaker 1:No, I think you're good, but will you check that?
Speaker 2:one Do I look like a Muppet?
Speaker 1:Um, no, but isn't it funny that Joel worked on Sesame street? It's kind of dark, but no, I have my brightness turned out. Um, when Joel was talking about Sesame street, I didn't mention that. I thought big Bird was a girl.
Speaker 2:That's weird and Snuffleupagus was her boyfriend.
Speaker 1:He was that weird elephant kind of thing.
Speaker 2:I love Snuffleupagus I wanted to own him.
Speaker 1:I thought they were dating.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:So Big Bird is a boy. Say it again.
Speaker 2:I wanted.
Speaker 1:Snuffleupagus. Say the name Snuffleupagus. That's not right.
Speaker 2:Snuffleupagus.
Speaker 1:No, it's an F at the end.
Speaker 2:Snuffleupagus.
Speaker 1:It's a PH at the end.
Speaker 3:There, you go.
Speaker 2:What do I say? I like yours better, honestly.
Speaker 3:Snuffleupagus. You put like a B or a P at the end. Snuffleupagus? No, it's not.
Speaker 1:What is it? Snuffleupagus?
Speaker 2:Snuffleupagus.
Speaker 1:I guess Okay, and I say okay, I'm just going to pretend I don't know anything.
Speaker 2:I hope Big Bird was a boy, because that was my nickname on the high school basketball team.
Speaker 1:Big Bird Snuffleupagus. Oh, it's your nickname now.
Speaker 3:Oh, no, you're writing it down.
Speaker 1:No, don't write it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, big.
Speaker 1:Big Bird Bird.
Speaker 2:Big Bird Okay.
Speaker 1:Double B and our co-host Big Bird.
Speaker 3:I like it actually Big.
Speaker 2:Bird. Big Bird was always a boy. I don't know where you got the girl. Well, I know.
Speaker 1:I think he is a boy, right, but I'm learning that as an adult. That's so dumb, that's something we're going to talk about today. So today we're keeping it light. That's what this podcast is going to be called.
Speaker 3:Okay, Keeping it light we're keeping it light.
Speaker 1:That's what this podcast is going to be called. Okay, keeping it light. Last time, the last episode where we talked about heavy stuff, the certainty episode, jennifer was grumpy.
Speaker 2:Are you a better man today? None of us wants grumpy Jennifer. I don't know, was I grumpy? Did you get any comments that I was grumpy?
Speaker 1:We didn't get comments about it, but we noticed. Did you notice? No, I didn't.

Speaker 3:I don't remember that.
Speaker 2:I didn't think I was grabbing.
Speaker 3:I felt like you noticed more than I did, but then, once you called it out, maybe I started to notice, you just go along with.
Speaker 2:You're like anywhere on this scale, I know.
Speaker 3:He convinced me that you were in a bad mood, so I went from zero to 100.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, I mean also, we might. I mean Jennifer and I both think that Jamie doesn't like us.
Speaker 3:My wife, your wife, Jamie, yeah, she didn't like me, so maybe we just You'd be the first people on the planet that she didn't like. She likes everybody, all right. Well, here's the thing she gets along with everybody. You guys, you keep her in the eggs business. I know, Lots of eggs.
Speaker 1:We do the podcast at your house. It's going great, uh-huh. Then we can't do it at your place anymore.

Speaker 1:Because I mean we're out here, it in here yes, let's do it go ahead. Do you count your steps when you walk?
Speaker 2:oh, it depends on what I'm doing I do it all the time.
Speaker 1:What do you mean if I'm going up the stairs or something I do? Like one two three, four really but you don't keep it going, it's just kind of just up the stairs, yeah, or if I'm anywhere, I mean if I'm just like five feet, no, but if you're walking from your car to merida's.
Speaker 3:You're gonna count the steps. Yeah, wow, depends. That's probably good, because my mind's always racing it probably is. It centers you like a breathing technique maybe, maybe.
Speaker 1:Have you ever peed in the woods? Oh my gosh yes have you ever pooped in the woods?
Speaker 3:probably that's a no for me I don't think I've ever pooped in the woods. Actually I probably have.
Speaker 2:As a kid I was in the woods all day so pants in the woods, but not like, yeah, I've put my pants in the car but not in the woods.
Speaker 1:Um, I fell out of a moving car once. I just thought about this the other day, uh that's what happened went down to the bus stop and it was cold so the neighbor usually would let me sit in their car and they were moving their car and I just opened the door and fell out.
Speaker 2:Wow Were you.
Speaker 1:Okay, not everybody can say that I was hurt, I think, but I don't remember what happened after that. Come dress yourself up.
Speaker 2:That's crazy. That's crazy.
Speaker 1:What size is your bed? That's on here.
Speaker 2:Oh, queen, we're queen.
Speaker 1:What are you?
Speaker 3:Queen, is your bed. That's on here. Oh, queen, we're queen?
Speaker 2:what are you, queen? I hate it. How do you do that? It's awful, we just do it.
Speaker 3:I love a king I mean, I think we're full california king and we go bigger, if we could, you're big I mean big bird listen that's true, but also jamie wants to be on her own private island when she sleeps hey it is a mound of pillows and blankets, and she puts a barrier between us it is I almost took a picture of her the other morning so I could show it there. I mean, it is something to behold it's so, she does not want touch she does not want a kid next to her.
Speaker 3:Nothing she's don't wake her up, I mean so I think the king is for both of us, but we struggle anything less than a king like we're staying somewhere, and it's a queen, no bueno.
Speaker 2:Listen, if we ever had money again. When we have money again, we're getting a king bed ASAP.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean we should do a GoFundMe, we might have king bed money.
Speaker 2:I don't think we do. What kind of money is king bed money? Well, I had to buy an organic one, oh geez. Yeah, I don't think we do. What kind of money is king bed money?
Speaker 1:Well, I had to buy an organic one. Oh geez, yeah, yeah, that's right, we have a real like a Whole Foods bed, really.
Speaker 2:But we've had it for a long time. The sleep store has 20% off the organic mattresses right now, there you go yeah. Oh, by the way, maybe they should sponsor us.
Speaker 1:Thank you Last Last week you kind of asked about my work and I never even thought on this podcast to talk about the nonprofit which? So Jennifer and I have a nonprofit that, if you want to, you can underwrite people who don't have enough money for emotional and spiritual care. I love it. Yeah, Such a great one. Hit me, jeremydiblercom. It's just send me an email.
Speaker 2:Jeremy with an O.
Speaker 1:I took a picture of her sleeping two nights ago because she wears this sort of white well, it's a ski scarf, right, it's like this kind of thing and she wears it the whole way down to the very base of her nose. And the other morning I woke up and she was bundled up in it and it was her head sticking out and it's like sleeping with a floor lamp. She's got, like a lampshade, a mouth, and then you know the rest of her body.
Speaker 2:Well, you just want it to cover your eyes. Yeah, it's like an eye mask. I use it as an eye mask.
Speaker 3:But you don't like regular eye masks.
Speaker 2:Well, I just can't find the right one. Yeah, you know they're hard to find. Yeah, I like this question what's your?
Speaker 1:least favorite movie. Oh my gosh, that's a tough one, like a movie that is you cannot, yeah you hate, I hate brigadoon.
Speaker 2:It's the stupidest movie ever. I really hated that movie we watched the other day wolves, that was so dumb.
Speaker 1:The new brad pitt, george colina movie you guys, that was dumb, it was a waste, it's so bad.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's real bad least favorite movie, gosh you know what else? Manchester by the sea oh, that's, that's good oh my, that's rough gosh.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a horrible movie I don't want to spoil it, but just the worst possible things happens to this guy I mean, do you have one?
Speaker 2:it's horrible, the least favorite, I can't think of one right in tell us your least favorite movie I really don't like wizard of oz either or willie wonka. I hated both of those. I don't like Wizard of Oz either or Willy Wonka.
Speaker 3:I hated both of those I don't like and this is a hot take, but I don't like anything. I don't like Lord of the Rings. I don't like Harry Potter. I don't like. I can't get into them Boring. Jamie watches them every night and I'm just like I've tried and I just can't.
Speaker 2:You don't like the fantasy stuff.
Speaker 3:Uh-uh, that's cool. I mean it's funny because, like, my favorite stuff is like Christopher Nolan stuff. That's like like Inception so it's not necessarily reality, but it feels like it could be true or real. But the real sci-fi-ish type stuff I just can't. I can't get and then, like we've talked about this before, but period pieces, like my least favorite movie, I'm sure, is they're wearing bonnets.
Speaker 1:Sorry, I just thought of something. When you say period pieces, it's just movies of women having their period, that's all it is Period pieces.
Speaker 2:I can't take those kind of movies.
Speaker 1:These are just period movies. It's all women with that time of the month.
Speaker 2:They're really grabby. Yeah, they're crabby women.
Speaker 1:I think we're filming one of those right now.
Speaker 2:Whoa, that is not cool, this podcast is a period piece.
Speaker 3:It really is.
Speaker 2:I think it was the other day when I was crabby, I think it was too.
Speaker 1:Remember that. Remember you just talked about that. If you had to bury a treasure, where would you bury it?
Speaker 2:Well, why would I tell you that?
Speaker 1:That's so bad.
Speaker 2:Next question you know what I'm going to do, though. Why would I tell you that that's so bad? Next question you know what I'm going to do, though. This is crazy. I heard that if you bury someone on your property-.
Speaker 3:Someone, yes, yeah, anybody.
Speaker 2:It will forever be your it will then be considered a family cemetery and then that property is forever in your family and I don't think you have to pay taxes on it.
Speaker 1:That's crazy.
Speaker 2:So we are totally burying my mom on our property when she dies.
Speaker 1:Maybe we need to find a dead body.
Speaker 2:No, but when my mom dies I can bury her on there. I think it has to be someone. That means something.
Speaker 3:On this property or the one your other property?
Speaker 2:Not here in this rental house.
Speaker 3:You just bury it and automatically you own it.
Speaker 2:Exactly, it's now mine, Mike. Funny story.
Speaker 1:So, I buried my mom here. It's our house now. Remember that rent. We were paying you no at our property.
Speaker 2:That's right. It's now our family's inventory.
Speaker 3:But can you ever sell it?
Speaker 2:I don't know, I think so.
Speaker 1:I wish I had known this when dad died.
Speaker 2:I know, oh man, I know, the thing is, I don't think All these people that died on us a couple of years ago-. We could have buried all of them. All got cremated. We could have been burying all these people. I know we could have a whole bunch of people there, so the only one that's coming up next whoever's next-.
Speaker 1:I don't want to talk about this.
Speaker 2:She's the oldest one is all I'm saying and so guess what mom. Guess what I already talked to my sisters. I'm like I'm burying mom on my property.
Speaker 1:What'd they say?
Speaker 2:Nothing, I think. They just think I'm crazy.
Speaker 3:They're like.
Speaker 2:Everybody wants to be cremated because it's so cheap. But I don't think ashes count, it has to be.
Speaker 3:Oh, you can't just like go bury the vase.
Speaker 2:No, it has to be a body.
Speaker 1:I'm fine with that. I don't care. What do you dip a chicken nugget in?
Speaker 3:Chick-fil-A sauce yeah.
Speaker 2:Ketchup or.
Speaker 3:Ketchup, that's so wrong.
Speaker 2:Ketchup or buffalo sauce.

Speaker 1:I got one when I was a kid.
Speaker 2:But I mean I've been stopped, but they usually let you out for some reason, I don't know why it's because I'm franklin, all the cops are former ccm band play band.
Speaker 1:That's happened to me twice actually really twice a cop has stopped me and and then they just tear it up.
Speaker 2:Really. So you're saying that they're usually old CCM? No, I just was joking. Oh, okay.
Speaker 3:I mean, there are a few friends of mine that used to play in CCM bands, that are police officers now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, actually I got stopped for speeding one night we were coming back from uh, I think it was a shoot a photo shoot, but it was the middle of the night and it was like one or two in the morning, really late we had driven separate.
Speaker 1:So I was in front of her and I got stopped for speeding and I, you know, we both pulled over and the guy came up to the window and we talked for a minute. He's like where are you going? And I was like, and he's, he wrote me the ticket and he's like, what are you doing? But you know why are you out here at one in the morning going seven five through Brentwood.
Speaker 1:And so I explained it to him and he's I mean, he's like, oh man, he tore the ticket up in front of me. He goes dude, you played a show. You know how was that a couple of weeks ago, and I really appreciated it there you go and we had a new record and I was like, hey, I'm going to give you a copy of the record. But they were in the back of the car, so she's behind me and just sees me getting out with these.
Speaker 2:I'm like, oh my gosh that's hilarious.
Speaker 3:Cause where I'm from you don't get out here. It's not good.

Speaker 3:some of it is like I'm really intrigued. That's why I like the documentaries and stuff I really like. Like something about human behavior really intrigues me. So even like dark stuff, that like james, why are you watching that? That's sick. I'm just like. I'm just fascinated by what humans can and will do okay yeah, man, we're, we're something did you watch mind hunter? I don't think so. Which one was that it's?
Speaker 2:a show about how they started the psychological program at the fbi and they track serial killers yeah, so he would go and interview oh, I would love that. Yeah, I mean, it's a show.
Speaker 3:Oh, it's a show.
Speaker 2:But it's I think it was about it's like based on real stuff.
Speaker 3:That would be right up my alley.
Speaker 2:It's pretty raunchy too, though. No it's got it, but it's.
Speaker 3:I never have a time to watch a that's remotely.

Speaker 3:Because no one leaves and gives themselves enough time to fill up with gas and all of my kids and my wife will basically roll it into the driveway on.
Speaker 1:E and leave it as someone else's problem. It drives me insane. Sadie Claire won't do that. She'll fill it when it's a half tank full.

Speaker 1:Sometimes you want to go. The question for this week is things that you're surprised by as an adult that you would have never pictured as a kid. That's right and I got you know. John Mulaney has this bit where he's like I thought quicksand was going to be a bigger deal when I was little and it turns out I haven't run into it at all.
Speaker 2:It's really true. I remember worrying about quicksand Me too. Yeah, did you? No, it at all it's really true.
Speaker 1:I remember worrying about quicksand me too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, did you know, maybe that was a older thing, but man I I totally remember being out in the woods and like thinking of a plan? Yeah, just in case I was supposed to crawl out sideways well, you grab like a vine, like remember, like in a princess bride? Oh yeah, when he falls in that, yeah and you're not supposed to kick, you know? You gotta wait for somebody to show up. Take your belt off, never move around. Toss your belt out. Well, he had a.
Speaker 1:I'm super scared. Well, Bruce Lee did that in one of his scenes oh, Bruce did it. Also, I did really think that earthquakes were a oh interesting.
Speaker 2:I just thought California is Earthquakes, california is going to end up just falling off.
Speaker 1:I mean I seriously pictured a map of the USA without California.
Speaker 2:You just thought it was just going to crack off there. Okay, interesting.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's one thing that has not become a big deal.
Speaker 2:Honestly, I didn't think we'd be here one way or another. Rapture was going to happen, or a nuclear war. I can't say it that.
Speaker 1:Nuclear Nuclear war, do I can't say it that Nuclear, nuclear war, do you?
Speaker 2:do George WA? I'm so scared I'm going to and I don't even know what he did.
Speaker 1:He said nuclear.
Speaker 2:Nuclear. Yeah, that's probably how I always said it.
Speaker 1:Nuclear war, so you just didn't even think you're going to see your 30s.
Speaker 2:Well, I just didn't think my life was going to be this long. I just didn't think any of our lives were going to be this long. I really thought. I mean, didn't you think we were going to be?
Speaker 1:burned up in a war. Yeah, I think I thought that. No, never.
Speaker 2:You were worried about nuclear war.
Speaker 1:I was worried about nuclear war. I prayed every night that Jesus would come into my heart if he's not already there and he would keep us safe from a nuclear war.
Speaker 2:But I didn't have any. You didn't actually think it was going to happen and I didn't have a rapture.
Speaker 1:I was only scared of it right before bed and the rapture jesus coming back, no, it wasn't even part of my vocab.
Speaker 3:That was the opposite. I wasn't. Nuclear war was not on my radar at all. Well, by the time you, came around they.
Speaker 2:It was kind of we were over that yeah I feel like you know but rapture, you thought rapture was going to happen.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean I'm surprised it hadn't happened yet, based on how I felt when I was a kid.
Speaker 2:Yes, I didn't think I'd make it to this age.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and I think there's just a lot of end time stuff then Maybe there is still now I'm just on the and then DC Talk covered. I Wish We'd All Been.
Speaker 2:Ready yeah. And I was like, see, see, they know.
Speaker 3:Kevin Mack says it, it's got to be true.
Speaker 1:Everything, he says is true which of the three of them?
Speaker 2:are not getting taken. Wow, you know.
Speaker 1:Toby's immediately going up. Yeah, he's first.
Speaker 2:And we're going to let the rest go. God's not dead, though right I.
Speaker 2:It's funny how that that must have been in your kind of your microculture thing, because yeah I didn't even it, totally was it wasn't even on my radar totally was like I didn't think I that's probably a surprise that you know that we're all still here, wow, from when I was a kid. I mean, you know, yeah, totally I really thought that I would have a lot more cowboys in my life. Like yes, there'd be a lot more horse action happening, but you know I thought that would be a lot bigger part of my life horses horses, horses, horses what about?
Speaker 1:you drew, got anything that has surprises you, and as an adult?
Speaker 3:yeah, how much money it costs to live in that the truth oh my gosh I didn't realize what it takes to well, especially live in franklin tennessee yeah, that's true it is not a cheap well, I think from like surprises, like how much your work is such a big part of your life, like it just can't like.
Speaker 3:I don't think when I was a kid, or even in high school or you know I was like I think I just thought I was going to be a worship leader or work in a church my entire life and that was just going to be my path, and I was going to make 30 grand a year from here on out and that's what it was going to be. I don't know.
Speaker 2:I just had. I had no like other kind of career aspirations, you know.
Speaker 3:So I'm kind of surprised I'm not doing that not really doing music.
Speaker 2:That is weird, isn't it? Yeah?
Speaker 3:yeah, I'm not sad about it, but I'm surprised oh no, I just want to look something up, he's getting books out no, no.
Speaker 1:I just just this morning I wrote this, this thing down and I was like is this, is this true? And I, I think it is um.
Speaker 2:I need a Snickers.
Speaker 1:You need a Snickers.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying because I'm hungry.
Speaker 3:Her stomach's rumbling.
Speaker 1:What did this say?
Speaker 3:Take a fourth guess we should mic it up.
Speaker 2:My stomach has a lot to say.
Speaker 1:It says that your expectations shape your experience, and I was like yeah maybe that's true. And I was like yeah, maybe that's true, because you guys I mean you expected that you'd be playing music and your experience of life has not been that Nope, not at all.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think I'm probably more surprised that I'm not affiliated with church work. Well, yeah, that was just like well what else is there?
Speaker 1:What else do you do? Yeah, and your expectation was to be dead, so you should be living every day with like Dead or on a horse, one or the other. Dead on a horse. Dead on a horse or on a dead horse? That too.
Speaker 2:I don't know, I just I don't know yeah.
Speaker 1:What about yours? Well, I mean, if that's true, if, if expectation shapes what?
Speaker 2:did it say reality I have no idea. Oh, thanks guys I appreciate that we got it recorded.
Speaker 1:Expectation does something yeah, I, I didn't. I guess I didn't have a lot of expectations. I wanted to be married, and so I. I could like I was like, yeah, I want to, but I didn't have a lot of expectations. I wanted to be married, and so I could like I was like, yeah, I want to, but I didn't care about being famous. I, you know, I didn't have those. Yeah, you know what I will say. I am surprised about my experience with kids. It's nothing. I never could see myself being a dad Like. I just didn't even think about it.
Speaker 1:Maybe I'm too selfish, but I didn't I didn't know if I wanted to have kids you remember yeah which is crazy to me now I didn't have a dog when I was a kid either, so I guess that's a surprise. I really love having dogs. You know we're on what year?
Speaker 2:20 of a dog, probably yeah, you like having a dog um, bring up the dogs right now.
Speaker 3:I'm so mad at my dogs.

Speaker 2:What do they call the big ones? There's a name for it An Aggie, an Aggie. Yeah, I just play marbles.
Speaker 1:Well, until you ate them, I haven't thought about that, for since I played them Do you remember I do, oh my gosh, it's better than when they put it in their nose.
Speaker 2:They get lodged up there, oh you know what I had a thorn bush in my nose.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I had two times. I had a thorn bush branch and mom said she just kept pulling it. It was just coming out.
Speaker 3:It was like that long. How did that?
Speaker 2:happen. How stupid that I don't know.
Speaker 1:Well, kids put stuff up their nose.
Speaker 3:You Kids put stuff up their nose. I don't remember. You think you put it in your nose. I have no idea how dumb Thornbush this yeah.
Speaker 2:I lived by some really weird kids, though who knows. I think they did all kinds of stuff to us. They were mean oh man, that's another. We had some mean neighbors that's another conversation to have.
Speaker 1:Wow, we went to she and I went One time in Philadelphia and it had a display of everything they found inside of kids. Oh really, it's just crazy the amount of stuff kids eat.
Speaker 2:Really, I don't remember this, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, eat and put up their nose. Well, I have friends, an ER nurse, and she's got a whole list of things that she's found. Put up the old tailpipe, yeah.
Speaker 2:I saw the other day somebody had a cassette tape. What A cassette tape, what Cassette tape Like a mini tape it was a doctor and he's like well, I thought I was going to get off early, but somebody just came in with a cassette tape. No, a full on cassette tape.
Speaker 1:Up their butt.
Speaker 2:Up their butt and he showed the x-ray and he was like how. Why, how, and why, just how, and why Can?
Speaker 1:you imagine the amount of lube.
Speaker 2:Like of all the things. Of all the things, why A?
Speaker 1:mixtape.
Speaker 3:I thought my I would say the biggest Guess the name of the tape, when I was thinking about what's the tape.
Speaker 1:Mixtape when I was thinking about this question, the thing that I thought most was kids Like I. It about this question, the thing that I thought most was is kids like I? It's just such a weird experience having kids. My kids were born. I didn't cry, but I remember thinking this is so surreal and so like, well, when we had I delivered sadie, like we got into the delivery room and our jennifer's doctor, who was a friend of ours, he had kind of said I'm gonna get you involved, and I was like nah, it's really okay. And um, and she was jennifer was pushing and he said all right, come here, jeremy, you're gonna help me with this. And he backed away and he just, he basically just coached me on what to do and I did you have any say in it, or you at that point, you're just on the struggle.
Speaker 2:What he's doing is catching, yeah well there was more to it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but it was weird to see. I was able to tell her she's got curly hair and it's weird how normal it was. I asked the doctor. I said do I need to wash up? Because man, childbirth is not a sanitary operation. So I brought Sadie out, the only Sadie out. The only time, the only time. I didn't hold Sadie. He said all right, give her to me and you can cut the cord. So I handed, I cut the cord. He gave her back to me like it's cool, I was the first.
Speaker 1:I was the first human she ever touched, that's kind of cool, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2:I have never thought about it that way. I mean I was like hey, baby Sadie was so weird. She came out and didn't. She just kind of would look at you like like she does now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like this is like. This is what we're doing this is boring what are we doing?
Speaker 3:she's I just so nervous about. I'm so squeamish, are you really? Jamie had c-sections so it was emergency c-section with grace. So when they deliver grace, I didn't want to be a part of like, so they put the sheet up there by her head and I was like I'm gonna be up here with jamie and like so they put the sheet up there by her head and I was like I'm going to be up here with Jamie and in my mind anything below the sheet wasn't Jamie anymore.
Speaker 2:You don't want to be backstage. Exactly that's something else.
Speaker 1:Backstage. I don't want to be backstage.
Speaker 3:No I don't want to be backstage, I don't want to see him, and I was so wrapped up in the moment and whatever, and I turned back to Jamie to say something to her, but they hadn't yet reassembled her.
Speaker 2:Oh.
Speaker 3:And what is in my mind's eye right now probably isn't what actually happened, but what I remember is atrocious. Just stuff laying everywhere it just looked like the worst murder scene, because I think they kind of take everything out.
Speaker 2:That's what I picture when.
Speaker 3:I think back on it and I know I've exaggerated In my mind, but I picture it being just this like organs in everything, everywhere. And I got Pass out like I got, like they brought me over A chair. We're like, hey, you know that whole thing. So after that, the on the other ones I got did she?
Speaker 2:Do you have to do c-section all four? Yeah, that's a lot of c-sections. Yeah, yeah it. So after that on the other ones I got, did she have to do C-section on all of them, all four? Yeah, that's a lot of C-sections, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's a lot Wait.
Speaker 1:I'm wrong. Four C-sections yeah.
Speaker 2:That's the whole thing. Yeah, grand slam.
Speaker 1:That makes me worry that I would. I mean the opening up and the taking the things out seems like would be the easy part out seems like would be the easy part I would make sure I got everything back. Yeah, it's got to be like a puzzle. What if you I mean hopefully there's- a diagram or something.
Speaker 3:They showed the spleen where the liver should be.
Speaker 2:They like showed my sister I don't know, they held stuff up and showed stuff to them.
Speaker 1:Oh, whenever she had her. I don't and don't. You have like 25 feet of something I don't, they don't take that out no, they don no they don't start taking that crap out.
Speaker 3:The doctor's wearing it like a lei. They're jump roping with it.
Speaker 2:It's like a magician's scarf, where they just keep going.
Speaker 3:I wish I could go back and do the birthing moments better.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:I don't think I was present enough.
Speaker 2:What do you? I mean, I don't know that there is. It's such a weird.
Speaker 3:Except for one of them, Jamie, the epidural. I think it was with grace, Cause she did have an epidural before they'd see, say or whatever, the medicine they gave her made her sick. Oh, that's and I was starving. And she recalls a story that I'm in the corner eating Taco Bell while she's puking in a bucket and she's like, could you please?
Speaker 2:take the Taco Bell out and I'm like that's rough. Yeah, probably.
Speaker 1:You know I was hungry. You know, in that one episode where we talked about marriage and how I said it's a relief when I tell couples that it's a relief, especially for women, that I'm like, yeah, she's supposed to love the kids more than you. I mean that's just well. That's also been a relief to some guys that I've talked to, where of course, they love their kids as soon as they're born. But it's not an instant bonding for most guys it's not. I was so glad to have my kids and oh, I got a pimple right there. Babe, you are going to oh whatever, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:You're going to be so pumped.
Speaker 2:Oh, whatever Does he pop in, he won't let me there I might.
Speaker 1:He doesn't let me do anything I don't like it when she doesn't tell me she's coming in, Like she'll rub my back.
Speaker 3:You just sneak pimple pop. I love pimples.
Speaker 1:Okay, hang on, squirrel. Do you watch Dr Pimple Popper?
Speaker 2:It's too big for me, it grosses me out.
Speaker 1:So if I tell guys like hey, no, it's pretty normal, like it can take a year for you to like, I probably bonded with Hutch when Sadie was born. Well, you had already bonded with Hutch I had, but it takes a while.
Speaker 3:You're absolutely right.
Speaker 1:But for a mom it is just instant, in that moment you go from.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I did, I mean, but I was very bonded to them in my stomach and then when they came out I was kind of like I don't know what I'm doing, I didn't know what to do with the baby, and so it kind of freaked me out Like I felt like I could. It was contained, I could take care of. I don't know.
Speaker 3:Were you nursing.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm that feels, pretty connected yeah.
Speaker 1:You're giving them life. When a mother-to-be is eight months pregnant and she goes in and there's like distress. The mom's like save the baby, save the baby. The dad's like save my wife, save my wife.
Speaker 2:Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1:There's already a mammal instinct of keep them alive. That's interesting A guide. It takes us a minute.
Speaker 3:Well, I think, especially once they start being able to relate back to you, that was when I started feeling more connected.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Like the older they got, and we had a thing and there was like AJ and I used to do the salute thing. Anytime he would see me, like we got. Every time he'd see me, he'd salute to me and I'd salute back across the room or whatever, and so that was. Actually. He scored a touchdown in his game last week and I tried to do it back to him and he didn't see me and so I just saluted the air. Well, it was all, Did he?
Speaker 1:have a phase had Hutch loved To kick me in the nuts.
Speaker 3:Do you know what he's doing?
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, he just thought it was funny.
Speaker 3:Yeah, aj's still. I mean he's very, he's a Picks on me a lot. Yeah, it's more fun.
Speaker 2:That's good.
Speaker 1:Anyway, new dads out there, or dads to be.
Speaker 2:You're going. What's it going to be like? Give?
Speaker 1:yourself some slack. You're going to like it, but you might not. You might not look over the bassinet in that first week and just bawl your eyes out I never cried.
Speaker 2:I don't think I remember.
Speaker 1:Just I enjoyed it because I didn't want him to grow up, but yeah, you really always you're still like that, but that that surprises me I'm not with hutch um the how fun teenagers is surprising me. I've always heard that it's so fun. I wish we had two more teenagers living in here yeah.
Speaker 3:It is so fun, and what's become really fun is when they bring their college friends home. That's super fun.
