Joe Rogan Experience #786 - Wheeler Walker, Jr.

you know what i'm are we live yeah right now we're live which probably cost a
shitload of money
we're trying to figure like writers on the storm doom doom doom doom doom i
think that would be the
best way to open a podcast ever too much though right i'll talk to some people
wheeler walker
jr are we on camera we're on camera with the whole deal you look fucking
fantastic
uh i found about you through a mutual friend who uh turned me on to eat pussy
and kicking ass
and i was a fan right away instantly are we on we're on this is real this is
100 legit yeah i love the
show and we uh i'm out here uh i'm not making this up we bought tickets for
this weekend because we
were gonna do uh uh coachella too risque they said the goal was we were gonna
do it and they said it's
too fucking x-rated we can't fuck which was fucking bullshit to me man you're
too risque for coachella i
thought coachella was all about taking ecstasy and that's what i fucking
thought you know it's just
i don't know maybe that's their excuse they just don't want me you know it
could have been the nice
way of saying we don't let's just go over the playlist and perhaps we'll see
where the hitches might be
i think i may be with them redneck shit i don't have any problem with that that's
easy that's the name
of the album that's easy we're banned from walmart by the way well that's that's
a plus beer weed
coochies that's fine family tree totally fine that's the dirtiest one oh really
can't fuck you
off my mind things start getting a little edgy fuck you bitch that's the ballot
drop them out that's
easy eating pussy kicking ass my favorite fighting fucking farting that's fun
better off beating off
sit on my face and then the coupe de gras which one of you queer is going to
suck my dick
hey man shit happens you get you go black out and go to a head to a bar well
the problem is the
titles are actually way quicker than the song i mean i go here no here's
honestly what happened so i went
to my buddy uh dave cobb he's a producer there i actually met him through your
buddy sturgill actually
i didn't really meet him but everyone there's a bunch of articles that said sturgill
introduced me to him
so i'm just going with it why not well i mean it's already narrative yeah it
helps but um so uh
and i'd kind of been kicking around nashville for like about 15 years or so and
with no success at
all i mean just bullshit and i'd been had my ass kicked my dick in the dirt as
they say and then um
i was like fuck it this is going to be my last record i was like i'm gonna
whatever they call it drop
the mic put out a really fucking dirty ass record though that record i always
wanted to make
and not pull any punches i was going to just pay for myself own it myself and i
had a feeling this was
going to get me banned from nashville and then i just leave because i'm fucking
broke so we made this
fucking dirty record and it's probably about as dirt and it's not it wasn't
even like i want to make
the dirtiest country record it was just like what's happened now in nashville
because it's turned into
such fucking bullshit is um well money's happened right well what's happened is
country radio is no
longer country music what is it it's and i didn't know this any more than you
because i don't listen
to that dog shit but i um i actually heard the best explanation for it the
other day steve earl who's
a hero of mine he was on this chris schifflett podcast i don't know if you know
he is if he's a
guitar player for foo fighter has a good podcast where he interviews like
country musicians he loves
country oh wow and steve earl goes um you could see you could hear him he's
kind of talking around
he goes country today you know mainstream corporate country is he goes it's rap
music for people
and he pauses he's like it's rap music for people and he just you keep hearing
him pause like he's
going to say it he goes it's rap people for it's rap music for people who are
scared of black people
and he's not saying that's a joke but i started listen he's absolutely fucking
100 right it's luke bryant
do like a duet with a rapper they all do that if you know what it is it's like
beats for and you know
you said you know some hip-hop and this is jamie's big on the hip-hop yeah you
like it's beats from
but the thing is here's my thing if you were making good sounding like it's
beats from the 80s really
soft guy with the baseball hat singing about trucks and beers and dog shit like
that it's the river
gotta go to the river exactly yeah no it's just so i and have you ever seen
that compilation what's that
it's a compilation they put it all these different musicians singing the exact
same thing oh oh yeah
yeah well i've heard a lot of this one compilation of country artists it's just
the same song yeah yeah
that's what i'm talking about yeah it's a compilation they're all talking about
being by the river
your tight blue jeans like there's all these like different things that they
just repeat
i mean it's it's disgusting really is what it is it's weird another thing too
is
i listen to nwa i listen to public enemy i listen to you know ghetto boys like
i don't need to hear
white boy rap i'll listen if i want to listen i'll listen all kinds of music if
i want to listen to
rap i'll listen to rap right so i went in the studio i'm like i want to make
some real country music
and at the time i didn't know what had happened and you know i'm in nashville
but i'm in my house i
don't know what the fuck's going on so i um whenever i write a song like my
first instinct is just not
to censor it you know why would you right and i started playing in the studio
and they're like
this guy motherfuckers i mean i'm fisting chicks and going you know guys
blowing each other and
uncles you know eating pussy and kicking ass had me literally like cry and
laugh well that's one
that's probably the cleanest song it's a funny song though man it's very funny
we were listening to
playback and i go we listen to fuck you which is the i was gonna say the hit i've
heard that one too
that's the hit if you can call it a hit it took me a second to realize that was
also you because i saw the
first one uh from uh the ben hoffman show yeah that dude you don't like ben hoffman
no well he
talked me into doing his uh his uh he had a show on comedy central as the
saying goes i was sick that
week so i didn't get to see it it was cancelled it wasn't funny and the dude
just came off like kind
of like a cocksucker wow strong words yeah i don't know guys could be brothers
you look exactly like you
look like real similar i don't think so but whatever you know each man each
each to his own dude i'm half
blind okay that's cool i was gonna say i don't i mean i wear glasses now um so
i did that thing and
then you know i think that's where maybe cobb or you know because i knew sturgill
back in kentucky
anyway the point i'm trying i'm all over the place well it just started getting
around what was
interesting to me was it started getting around through no no like big
promotion just people
passing it on someone would find out about they'd send it to this guy and he
would send it to his
friends and that's how i got it well that's it might have been sturgill to send
it to me it's very
possible because everyone what it had what happened was and kind of the main
point was i was in the
studio back to what we were talking about and i'm listening to playback to fuck
you and i go man
this is so pretty if i made it clean you know like love you girl you know
whatever right i go this could
get played on the radio right they look at me like i'm crazy and they go this
ain't getting played on
the radio i go why not they go because it's real country music and they don't
play that on the radio
anymore then i go if it's just if i can get to get banned for playing real
country why not just
fucking not censor myself at all and do it fucking x-ray so that that's what
kind of convinced me
just to do it my fucking way you know so as someone who is a country music
artist and is a fan of
country music and we talked about country music before the show started there's
you got to be some hope
that these guys like shooter jennings and sturgill there's these new guys that
are coming up that are
really fucking talented that's the only hope well i mean really what's
happening here's my thing and
i've gotten a lot of fuck i mean all the kind of mainstream it's not fucking
around i mean like
music grow ain't happy that my out it was grammy week when my album came out
like eight weeks ago
and i out my album debuted at number nine on the billboard country charts
during graham outsold
people who were on the fucking grammys and i'm just that's from a fucking few
tweet and i got
no twitter followers if i don't even know how to use that you know facebook and
you know
i signed up for snapchat hoping to get a bunch of tits because they said that's
where the tits come in
snapchat's where the tits come in yeah i got i gotta stay off the snapchat jamie
i've gotten 25 000
tits no i got nothing but dicks and nuts and i've gotten like four of the nastiest
tits you've ever
seen well men are disgusting so men take chances yeah well i mean i appreciate
a guy and you got all
these songs about gay guys sucking dicks they're like i can get this guy well
that well the thing
they're not even doing these aren't gay guys these are guys who are just like i
love your album i want
to show you my fucking nuts oh and i'm like i guess i appreciate it but you
should someone sent me some
fucking tits already yeah well i think they're coming today today people are
going to send you
them they're not even going to be theirs you're going to get some fake accounts
oh you're going to get
fish not fish catfished catfished you're going to get catfish if anyone's up
for oh yeah if anyone's
up for getting catfished it's old wheeler walker jr i'll show up with my
fucking pants down ready for it
i'll buy anything you know well what's what's funny about you and this whole
thing is that no one had to
give you the green light to do this what i love about it is that you decided to
take a chance spend your own money
hire legit musicians put it together yourself and you're like it i'm gonna have
it either i'm gonna
go down in flames or this is gonna take off and dude i hear about you all the
time now like i don't know
if you know what's happening but there's like this wave of people who are
finding out about you across
the country the answer is i i didn't know i mean i put out the album and then i
got a call like i said about
you know that it's on the billboard i thought it was a joke and then i they
said they we should i got
