Happy November, happy November to you and wherever you are.
And I'm so grateful you're here, I'm here, we out here.
You know, we're in this little, this little dirty daddy royal rumble.
We're out here tickling each other's tummies, you feel me?
We're out here just being, you know, we a couple of, you know, we a couple of
the, of the, of the, of the most wildest little clams in the chowder.
You feel me?
Take care, brush your hair.
Let's get into it.
I'm just sitting on your front porch, wondering how could I be so far from my
home.
And my mind is somewhere else, but when I find it, I'll patch up where it's
been blown.
There you go, get your mind, get your mind.
Now I'm just floating on the breeze, and I feel I'm falling like these leaves.
I must be calling a song.
Come on, we're here.
We can do it.
But when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind.
I found I can feel it in my bones.
Come on.
But it's gonna take a little time for me to set that parking brake.
And let myself on my eyes, shine that light on me.
I'll sit and tell you my story.
Shine on me.
And I will find a song.
I will sing it just for you.
That is Bishop Gunn with Shine.
And that's that lead in.
The music right there.
Welcome to this past weekend.
Where are you at right now?
What are you doing?
What are you wearing?
Are you wearing a shirt that you like, I hope?
That's one thing sometimes for me.
Dude, if I leave the house in a shirt that I don't like,
I'm not gonna be, you know, real tickled about that.
If you see me somewhere and I look grumpy,
then I probably have on a shirt that I don't like.
You know, my mom's, you know, one time when I was growing up,
my mom got a batch of real small shirts.
And I don't know where she got them from.
I don't know if, you know, somebody was selling, you know,
boxes of really small shirts or whatever.
And she got a deal on that.
Because she used to spend time, some time with some, you know,
miscellaneous gentlemen here and there who was getting deals on stuff.
You know, she dated a black Jewish guy when I was young.
So, you know, she'd show up at the house with a box of, you know,
you know, a box of, you know, one size fits all neck braces
and shit like that every now and then.
And we would play in the house, you know, play, you know,
we'd play handicap at the house and, you know,
put on different neck braces and, you know,
wheel each other around and do courthouse and all of that.
And, you know, just being children, you know, being young children.
And one time my mom got these shirts and I think probably for a year and a half
they had four different colors in the box.
They had orange.
They had blue.
Like a blue you never even seen anymore.
Like, you know, they used to have a lot more different blues.
You know, a long time ago they had a lot more.
Now they have maybe seven different blues.
You know, royal blue.
I think midnight blue.
You know, you know, British blue.
They got that, you know, the British always want to do their thing.
French blue.
That blue that kind of, you know, it says it's going to be there for you
and then it's not there for you.
It never helps you out or shows up.
And they got like three other blues.
But this was a blue that they don't have anymore.
This was kind of, it was like powder blue kind of, but a little,
like if somebody saw you in it, they couldn't tell if maybe you worked
at the hospital or if you were like a newborn baby.
It was kind of one of those things.
So I guess it was like a medical blue.
You know, it kind of seemed like a blue.
Maybe you'd only put like a newborn baby in like a baby, you know,
a baby blue for a boy if somebody gave birth to a boy.
Or it would be, you know, like the scrub, something like that.
So we had that.
They had orange, blue.
They had pink, like not pink, but like purple and green, like a dark green.
I think they were black, but it said dark green on them.
So that's one of the problems sometimes with dark green.
Somebody's like, oh, these are, you know, you'll buy six or 700 dark green
shirts,
but really they're just black shirts.
And now you're wearing black shirts and you're thinking, you know, that your
eyes don't work good.
And that shit always, that's, I don't like it when, you know, companies do that
to you.
When they say, oh, you know, you got this box of dark green hitters right here.
And really they're just black hitters.
And you're walking around in a black shirt and telling people it's dark green.
And all your friends think you're crazy.
And you don't know any better because you can't, you think your eyes are bad
because somebody lied to you.
One of these fancy companies lied to you.
But yeah, my mom got some bad shirts, some small shirts.
And so for, I remember for a while growing up wearing those real, real small,
small shirts.
And I think, you know, I know, you know, anxiety is something different for
everybody.
But sometimes I think when I was young, that's one of the things that gave me
anxiety was wearing.
I mean, these were T-shirts that were for really almost just real athletic
babies.
If they had a baby that could, you know, that was, you know, that was going to
wear a lot of different shirts.
Then those would have been for him because my mom got about a box of bad shirts.
But anyhow, man, I hope that this November is fitting you comfortably.
Because we're getting into a nice time of year.
You know, I remember when I was young being, you know, November, you get
outside and you could feel, you know, just feeling the cool air on your cheeks.
And it felt like a, just like a man, like a, not a man, I guess like, yeah,
like a man with like a cold tongue was just kind of licking your cheeks a
little bit.
And that's Mr. Winter.
You know, that's Father Winter or whatever they call him.
You know, Chris, not Chris Kringle, but, you know, that's winter time.
And winter time would come along and it would just, you know, it was fun around
those times.
And we had a turtleneck at our house, too.
My mom had a turtleneck she wore for business meetings or something.
And sometimes we would get a hold of that bitch, boy.
And when I was young, there was nothing more fun than wearing mom's turtleneck.
Because you didn't have a shirt like that.
You know, when you're a kid, that turtleneck, that's like a third sleeve.
You could do whatever you want.
You could put your arm out the top, put your neck out the side, and then your
other arm out the other one.
You could do whatever you want.
You know, you got that bitch, you know, you got the arm coming out the right
hole.
You got the, you know, other arm coming out the left hole.
And then you got your other arm going out the turtle hole.
So you wearing that bitch, you look like a crossing guard, that fucking, you
know, that's in really some developmental type of clothing.
And I loved that, man, when my mom, you know, because I would do the laundry.
We had different chores when I was growing up to do the laundry.
And that was one of mine.
You know, my mom made us do that when we were real, real young.
And we had to do it.
You know, we had to help out.
You know, do the bathroom, clean the bathroom.
You know, everybody had different chores.
And I remember sometimes with the laundry, I would do mom's laundry.
And I would get the, and I'd get that turtleneck, boy.
And I'd put that bitch on.
And, man, you could do all kinds of, it was just more of an adventurous shirt
than other regular shirts.
I remember a turtleneck was really, you know, it was like kind of, it was like
the choose your own adventure of shirts.
Because a turtleneck, you could pop out of different, you know, you could pop
out the top.
You could pop out of a sleeve.
You know, you could do whatever you wanted.
And I grew up in a neighborhood where a lot of people look like shit.
So, it's like if we wore stuff that was not really, like if you showed up, dude,
on our, if you got off of our school bus at the school and you look like shit.
Dude, you fit right in, bro.
Because our bus, it brought in everybody.
You know, out from my street, man, off of McGee Street, bro, it brought in all
the wild cats.
You know, head lice.
Boy, we had that head lice.
We showed up with the head lice.
People want to start bitching, then everybody going to start itching.
Because we had that, I mean, they had head lice in our neighborhood.
There was, it was, you could, turf wars, bro.
You'd feel, sometimes you'd get two strands of head lice in your hair at night
and you couldn't sleep.
Them bitches was battling it out.
You know, it was like S.E. Hinton or it was like, you know, one of these, step
it up, like that movie, step it up, where everybody's trying to outdance each
other.
And that was the kind of thing you could feel on your scalp.
If you got, you know, a couple different strands of head lice at the same time.
And we called them Italians, head lice, because they showed up in groups and
they bothered you.
But I love this time of year, man.
And I hope you love it.
And I'm happy to be here with you guys.
I'm a little tired, but, you know, I'm always a little tired these days.
And that's just been life.
And that's okay.
I think I'm, I don't know if I'm tired, but I'm also kind of gratefully, you
know, restful in some ways.
I'm just, you know, I guess I'm a little bit gratefully exhausted maybe in
certain ways.
Man, I got back from Utah.
I got back from Utah.
And I want to apologize.
I didn't do the meet and greet last night after the Saturday shows.
Nobody cared, really, I don't think.
I mean, some people might have cared.
I was just trying to, I was, you know, I've just been, I've been, you know, I've
been having a lot of like just anxiety and anxious energy.
And it's been hard for me to, you know, when I get back to do the podcast,
sometimes it's tough, you know, because I just feel, you know, just a lot of
stress, I think.
And I don't know what some of the stress comes from, I guess, honestly, you
know, sometimes I feel, you know, I feel like just more responsibility.
I don't know.
I mean, look, it's different when people start coming to see the show and
people are excited and, you know, it's just a new thing.
You know, it's a new thing in my life.
And I've talked about this a little bit before and I was thinking about it
today, you know, but I'm used to, I'm used to being that, having that underdog
kind of thing.
You know, I'm used to feeling like an underdog where, you know, feeling like
nobody cares.
And so, you know, that's a comfortable place for me to be at because it always
gives me like a place to come from.
You know, my whole life I've always felt like I came from a place where I felt
like nobody cared.
And some of that might have been true and some of that was that something was
off with me where I couldn't feel, I couldn't feel when somebody did care.
But now it's like people are coming out and they're supportive of the work.
And I'm doing good work, man.
Look, I'll show up, I'll put on a good show.
I promise you.
You know, there's a lot of things in my life I've done poorly, but show up and,
you know, and share, you know, share these stories and make people laugh and
feel good and have fun.
I'm doing that.
I am doing that.
And I'm not going to let you down in that department.
But it's just been different when people come out and and it's just kind of
scary, like when I've always felt like the underdog, when I've always felt like
nobody cared and to now be in a place where it feels like people do care.
You know, it takes some, you know, it's like, let me think if I can explain
this better.
It makes me just wonder, well, who, if I'm not the underdog, you know, how does
this fit on me?
You know, I don't know how to be kind of in that way, you know, in a little bit
