what really started to catapult you then let's go save me yeah yeah there was a
lot of like this what I tell people everything I did was a step on the
ladder save me was like skipping 10 steps on the ladder yeah you know your
story save me now it even it it's more it's under more yeah it's like I could
bore you with like every little step that helped and there were so many
everything mattered is what I tell people everything you're going through
right now in your career if you're young up an aspiring artist comedian or
whatever every one of those little things matter and then there's like a
small tipping point that happens like the Malcolm Gladwell book where shit just
kind of the save me for me will always be that moment of like you know what it's
fun I don't know how it is in your business but it's always the shit you
don't think is gonna be it yeah dude we fucking wrote save me on a Sunday we
recorded save me on a Monday we shot a video to some know what we were wrote it
Saturday recorded it Sunday shot the video Monday put it out Tuesday Wow that's
how that worked didn't think twice about it and did you know that it would be
that
you did you know did you have an inkling you honestly I have any idea I just
knew
that I couldn't quit fucking with it I just knew that it was something about it
that just stirred my spirit and I was like I just man we got to go for it and I
just I was proud of it I was like to me it was like a therapy session publicly
you
know and that was like the biggest thing for me was like just letting those
emotions
emotions out in a public way was like I don't know some songs I have songs
still that I wrote
that mean a lot to me that I'll never play anybody ever because they mean that
much to
me and save me was one of those songs that could have been that song but it
meant even
more to me so it was like now this one needs to go out like I just I don't know
man I was just
prepared for it to I loved it so much I didn't care what it did if it popped or
flopped I just felt
like fucking you know I get thousands of emails a year people who say or
messages a year that say
your music helped me I overcame drug addiction I was going to kill myself and I
found your music I
was literally I've had messages that were like I was sitting there gun loaded
listening to a playlist
that was going to be the last listening of my life and found a song of yours
that made me feel like man
this is it touched me in such a way that it changed my decision and this is my
thing if I get
five thousand of those a year and four thousand nine hundred and ninety nine of
them are lies
holy fuck can you believe we saved one fucking human you know what I mean like
let's just assume
everybody's full of shit but one fucking guy holy shit man you know what I mean
and yeah at the end
of the day that's what save me was about it was like man what means the most to
me and that's why I
write the music I write is people come up to me and oh dude such and such was
fun I love that song I
dance to it but when people come up to you and say dude we played save me at my
cousin's funeral at
and it's now his mother's favorite song and the way she copes with it or we
played smoking section at
this funeral or we played smoking section to commemorate this or hey man this
song helped me
when I got out of rehab yeah that shit is like fucking what this shit's about
dude you know what
I mean like when a motherfucker's like dude I don't just watch your podcast for
humor it was
the fucking first thing I laughed at after I got out of fucking sobriety like
that's the shit that
touches the soul you know what I mean hope you enjoyed that video and you can
