Zac Brown | This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von #500

All right. I've got some new tour dates to tell you about. We've added a second
show in Belfast
over in the United Kingdom on June 6th. Tickets are available now for that show.
And we're going to do more shows in Europe or white Europe. And we just haven't
had the chance
to get them on. So it'll happen in the future. This is just a brief time that
we're visiting
over there. As well, we have shows in Boise, Idaho, Western Valley City, Utah,
Dublin, Manchester,
London, Las Vegas, Halifax, and Vancouver. I think we're going to add a St.
George as well,
Utah. All those are at Theovan.com slash T-O-U-R. And if tickets, if it's sold
out and you're getting
a secondary market, don't overpay for tickets. We'll come back through another
time. And I appreciate
the support. Today's episode is our 500th episode. And that's unbelievable to
me. And I'm just so
grateful that we have been able to keep doing this. So thank you for showing up
for us and checking out
some of the podcasts. We'll talk about it more on a solo episode in the near
future. But thank you so
much. I love you guys. And yeah, dang, bro. That's wild. Today's guest is a
musician from Atlanta,
Georgia. He's a three-time Grammy winner, the writer of countless hits over the
years. And
I can say first and foremost, honestly, one of the best live shows around. He's
about to kick off a big
summer tour. We just got to hang out recently, and I'm fortunate to get to
spend time with him
again. Today's guest is Mr. Zach Brown.
Shine that light on me
I'll sit and tell you my stories
Shine on me
And I will find a song
I'll be singing
I'm lost
I left my phone somewhere yesterday. And I don't know if you've done that
Use the find my rig on it? Oh, I didn't. I didn't have any of that set up. And
um, yeah, for two hours, I didn't have my phone
It's a scary thing. It was scary. And look, here's the crazy part.
I was okay. Yeah, that was the kind of your pocket vibrate. Oh, I felt
Yeah, I can't. Well, I kept feeling my pockets. I was like, well, did I make
sure I felt my pockets, which was kind of a crazy
Yeah, when I have when I run out of Zen or I don't have my can of Zen in my
pocket, bro
I'll pat my pants like every 15 seconds. I'm like
It's the worst feeling like a fucking crackhead chasing the pebble, dude. I'm
like
I'm like digging in the carpet. I'm like, oh shit. I don't have any Zen
Yeah, I was even feeling on different parts of my pants. I'd never felt on
before too. Like could it be like
Like is it in my cup? Yeah. Yeah. Like where where did I put it? It's and it is
crazy
Yeah, I'd be like, oh, maybe I didn't feel my pockets well enough. That would
be the thought that would come to my head and I would go back and do it
Um
And those cicadas are coming. Do you know about it?
No
The cicadas bro
are on the horizon. They're coming
Um
So it's an insect
Yeah, I know what cicadas are
Okay
Beautiful inset
Really the El Camino is an insect kind of if you look at them very unique
Appreciated
And do their own thing, but they have this year's a special year where this
year they have two brews and they usually don't happen at the same time
Okay, and this is the first time since the 1800 1805 or something that they are
both happening
At the same time, so there will be some parts of the country
Um, I think it's just like in illinois
Where that'll get both of them at the same time
And it'll be so loud you won't even be able to hear the locusts are coming. It's
like yeah, alfred hitchcock shit
Yeah, people are like running around hiding in their bathrooms and shit. Yeah
Awesome. Yeah, so if your spouse goes missing during that time, right, then
that's on mother nature
Yeah, but um, yeah, that's coming up pretty soon. I think it's in
May and early june so
Zach brown man good to see you dude
Likewise. Thanks for having me. Thanks, bro. I appreciate you coming in man.
How are you?
I'm doing great. Yeah, doing awesome. You got a new song really doing well
Yeah, I got a new one out summertime song
So we did a summer ep you never really put together like just a bunch of like
this kind of songs before so
We had the one we did for jimmy buffett to the pirates and parrots which just
came out
So that was part of that's kind of the slower one, but the other ones are all
just kind of upbeat just like
lake or beach music stuff
So yeah, top's the one that's out right now
And um, it's good shit, man. It's always fun. It's like when you write a new
song
It's like having a new baby, you know, it's like just excited to get it out and
Play it live and hear people sing it back to you
So it's it's a it's a good time fun time for that
Yeah, well, I guess what's that like?
It's like you get that song out there and then the first time you get it out
there and you start to see that people know it
Yeah
Yeah, and usually if you see people like taking their shirts off while you're
playing it, you know, it's gonna be a good one
Yeah, yeah out in the crowd so especially if those people are women, I think
yeah, yeah, but normally the ones that
One of the women that want to do that are not the ones that you want to see do
that
But it's still out there, you know, I mean, yeah, you get to see what their r&d
is like the relative nipple diameter
Oh, is that relative to the size of the
Person breast itself. Oh, yeah. Yeah
So if is it like a mortadella like a big salami slice or is it just like a
little
Tiny
Olive or something
You know, I don't know what it is. Like a little pimento or whatever. Yeah,
exactly. Yeah. Oh dang. I didn't think about that
I wonder who has the largest breast and the smallest nipple, you know
That's got to be a guinness thing man
Somebody's had to be recorded on that
You would think it would probably be somebody maybe be like kind of swedish vietnamese.
Maybe I feel like
Yeah, that's a good cross that'd leave like where there's no areola. It's just
the tipple. Yeah, yeah
That's it brother
Yeah, annie hawkins turner actually better known by the stage name norma stits
Is a website entrepreneur and fetish model. Her pseudonym is a wordplay on
enormous tits
as a
Uh, gigantomastia she has the proper word for giant yeah
For having big breasts is actually called gigantomastia and she holds the guinness
world record for the largest natural breast wow
But no talk of the r and d
Yeah, yeah, we're not getting really stats on her. Well, I want to get yeah
I want to get some bts stats on that lady
um
Yeah, you've had success man when did you start to like you've had a lot of
success, right?
You've had a long time of success
I've been blessed man been blessed but worked hard
Yeah to get there, you know, just grinding man
Grinding for years and years to get to the beginning of the success. Oh, that's
interesting. Yeah
Do you remember like your first definition kind of of success?
And then do you feel like it's kind of changed over time some it does man?
I think you know, you constantly every few years have to redefine what success
means to you, but you know back in
back in the early days, it was like
I want to
Get a gig or play some music in a bar, you know
And have them pay me and want me to come back, you know, that's kind of the
first step in
And I was playing backup for this guy just playing guitar for him and like
singing backup for a dude
And I was making a hundred bucks a night doing that and missing my early
classes in college because of it
But that was the first time but even back man when I was a kid like I was in
choir like first grade through
You know all the way through college and a little songbird, huh?
Yeah, I just music was my first love man, and it's still like one of my biggest
loves that I have, you know
um, it just moved me man, and
it's
It's always been like my safety blanket as well
Like when I had my guitar with me as a kid like I carried it to school every
day
I was that kid like had a guitar with me like football practice after football
practice it actually kept me getting hazed and
Playing football
It's like when I went to high school and was playing high school ball
Um, if I could play some pink floyd if I could play some wish you were here or
something the guys would want to do
Then they wouldn't rub ben gay on my nuts like they would all the other
freshmen
Yeah, you know, I mean
So yeah, you can't beat up the guy if you need him to do something for you
later
Exactly exactly that worked out good. That's a great thing. It's like that is
such a great survival skill
You're like I have to be of value to these people
In some way shape or form and uh, where was that in georgia where you're at?
Yeah, and uh,
Forsyth county georgia, which was pretty wild growing up was it there because
When I was probably eight or nine
You go to walmart and there'd be a full like kkk rally happening in the parking
lot
No way hoods and robes and beating on windows and handing out flyers and
You know, I mean I was like
It was not that long ago, but Forsyth county was pretty
You know well known for that, you know, I mean and yeah, um
Figuring out what to do with that and then I remember later, you know, when I
was
Yeah, when I was a freshman we had the first ever like african-american kid in
the schools there that came there no way
Yeah, and he was fast too. He was fast. Well, he had to play football with us
and um
But yeah, it's wild just thinking man
It wasn't that long ago that it's yeah, like back back then, you know, wasn't
that far back
Yeah, it is kind of crazy
Well, I remember growing when I was growing up in our town like a lot of black
folks didn't have you couldn't even have like
Like the one of the kind of top jobs you would have would maybe be like a
teacher
Like you they didn't have like black doctors and stuff in our town, you know,
when I was a kid i've talked about that on here a lot, but
You know, it's crazy to think that
That you that that a part of that was alive in your life, you know exactly that
it was that you know the in straight up
Hoods, you know, I mean, that's crazy
Where would they meet at like a dollar general or whatever dude?
I don't know I don't know but uh, but up in dahlonega where I ended up moving
for and graduating from high school up in north
Georgia where i'm from there like the dude we knew like the grand wizard lived
in that house. I was like his house
And it was um, it was trick-or-treat there
No, they give out like razor blades and m80s or something. Yes, you know, yeah,
I think he would def. Yeah
um, I don't know what yeah, because I actually shared a fence with uh, david duke
actually
Who was a part of the I think he was like one of the
assistant chiefs or something of like that, um
Of the klu klux klan at one point dude, they had a restaurant. I remember
called klu klux clams dude in
Uh home of louisiana for a while it was kind of like a little bit of like
Kind of a racial seafood kind of spot or whatever, but um
Yeah, I mean, it's definitely crazy to think you know, I never saw david duke
Do anything racist, but you know, obviously he had that in him in his past, you
know, yeah, I think a lot of it too is you know
It's
Kind of based on just not being exposed to good people of all different kinds,
you know
And that's like, you know, and i'm sure you feel the same way like getting to
travel with what we do
Like i've been on the road since I was you know, 17 like just all over
everywhere
And so if you have if all you know, if your granddad told you stories about
these things
He's like a boogeyman, right?
Like you should be afraid of these things or you shouldn't do this or whatever
you're like, yeah
You know screw those guys or whatever but
You know when you travel man, it just like that ignorance gets gone and then it's
kind of like you still see people hung in it
Because I go back like I went back to my I think my 10-year high school reunion
And the people have been doing the same thing every day since I left and they
might go to panama city beach to for like
Vacation once a year like we used to do on spring break, but
