Back in the saddle.

What up vlog? His walkout song is my song. >> What are you on? >> Yeah, I'm new to country. Yeah, I'm new to country. >> All right, I'm at the airport again. This time I have three shows in three states in 3 days. And there's a government shutdown, which means that tons of air traffic controllers aren't working and loads of flights are delayed. So, um, come with me as I try to regulate my nervous system across America. >> Good job, bro. >> All right, Boston. We are inside you. >> Chris, this is a Dunkin Donuts. All of this >> Boston is one large Dunkin Donuts. >> Yeah. And so, like they have stores within the Dunkin Donuts. you know, um, the Truman Show. >> Mhm. >> It's kind of like the structure is the same as that. >> Okay. >> The city just is enveloped by one massive Dunkin Dome. >> I'm going to test this baby out. >> Yeah. We're just going to place that as a seven. >> Okay. I don't think I've had that many Dunkin Donuts. >> But you're going to this trip. >> What happened? >> We have not moved a [ __ ] I still have the bag, dude. I would. >> Zach said, "Wouldn't it be fun while we're in Boston for 24 hours that anytime we walk past a Dunkin' Donuts, if we go past the entrance, we have to buy something, we can't buy the same thing that we've already bought before, and we need to give a rating afterwards." That sounded great. >> Oh, I feel it. It's stale. It's not good. >> Oh my god, that's a two and a half. >> That is inedible. You made such a stupid rule. It's a stupid game already. >> Yeah, but no, but it makes sense. >> No, it's a stupid game. You made a stupid game. Well, I don't make the rules. >> Well, see, here's the thing, Chris, that you don't understand that I understand. >> Being a Boston guy, it's kind of just a it's it's just something. It's in my lifeblood, really. It's just who I am at my core is is a Boston guy. So, I see a I see a a bowl of clam chowder and I think, "Yeah, I'm back." All right. I It's I'm back in my home. You know, it's just who I am. You wouldn't get it, dude. I'm a Boston guy at heart. You know, we got the seas up there. What are we doing? >> First day in Boston. Actually, the only day in Boston going to get some steps in. Going to get myself So, I need to pack. Weirdly, I need to pack before my show for the trip tomorrow to Chicago. And then it's soundcheck. So, back to back to back. >> That's so nice. I'm aware that there will be some pigeon lovers in the audience, but they [ __ ] blow as an animal. That being said, these are quite nice and fluffy. Look at that fat one there. >> What happened is that after we become a party on top of my jump scared me jump scared by a Dunkin Donut. Fortunately, I'd accounted for this. I haven't yet had a coffee today. This is an easy one. Been to Boston once. I came out here to record with David Sinclair in 2019. came out on my own with a single Blue Yeti USB mic and two iPhones, one of which I borrowed from a friend. Prop them both. If you go back, cut to the episode and just look at the two angles. Ooh, I've got two angles on this. I'm coming to you from the beautiful Harvard Medical School. >> How are you today? >> I'm doing really well, Chris. >> I'm very, very glad to be here. Hello. Do you do the cereal milk latte still? >> Hello. >> What do you think? I just want a nice a nice coffee. What do you think I should get? It's not what I wanted, but it's good. >> I don't make the rules, man. I just make them go. It's a strong four from Justin. >> That's probably okay. Maybe a little bit less than that. And then uh Oh, that's great. Check. Check. Two. Hey. Hey. Hey. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Here's the thing, Max. I am a I'm definitely a Boston guy. That's what people know me as. They know me. They see me and they go, "Oh, that's the Boston guy." And I go, "Yeah, I'm home." [ __ ] It's I I eat, sleep, and breathe this place, bro. Everyone else is not from here. I'm from here. I'm First time, man. Yeah, it's my first time ever here. Hard on the run, keeps your hand on the gun. Can't trust anymore. I was so sure what I needed was more. tried to shoot out the sun. In days when we rage and fill off the page, such damage is done. I made it through. Somebody knew I was meant for someone. So girl in your boots by the bed. We ain't leaving this room. If someone needs medical help or the magn >> first off. Thank you. You can take it off. What's the best compliment you can receive not physical? >> The best compliment I can receive not physical. H you made me feel less alone. That's like a really big deal. We're like cursed to be isolated inside of our own brains. Even if you were born with a twin, you're only ever going to get to see this tiny bit rate, this bandwidth limitation of what they can tell you or show you or speak to you. It causes us to feel unduly isolated in ourselves. And that's why I use the word personal curse. That's what some of the stuff that I've gone through this year has felt like, like almost like comic. Like if it wasn't so tragic, I would laugh. You can see why the ancients believed that mortals were the gods play things because it does feel like this weird awful bestowment from above. Like I've been hit with some arrow. Like that's what anger feels like. That's what anxiety feels like. That's what lust feels like. Feels transcendent. It feels like more than just you. And every time that I get close to showing too much of myself on the podcast, every time that I get it makes me do like inside it makes me feel like this. Uh I know that usually on the other side of that is something that some portion of the internet is probably going to mock me for, but a bigger portion of the internet has never heard anybody else say. And uh the more that I try to lean into that, I think the better the world gets a tiny little bit. So, I'm going to keep doing >> Chris. >> What's your name? >> Harry. >> Nice to meet Harry. >> I just want to say I moved to the US by myself and I was away from my brothers and like listening to you was like having a big brother with me. Back in 2021, I found your podcast and it was during like one of the most like lowest points of my life and every ride to work, the full nine yards. It was like you you gave me a community. >> Thank you for being my friend during my loneliness. >> Boston Rules, man. I love this place. It's so [ __ ] cool. Awesome show. Awesome crowd. Really cool theater. Uh first show that I've played in a triple decker place like one two three. Um, it's really really crazy seeing people up so high. It was awesome. Had a lot of fun. Um, haven't packed. We leave for the airport in 9 hours, 8 hours or something. Government shutdown is still happening. Flights are being delayed. Air traffic controllers aren't at work. Tomorrow's an adventure. >> I'm logging in, bastard. I mean, [ __ ] bastard. small. >> Nice and good. >> Chicago guy. >> No, actually I'm not not a Chicago guy. >> What? You're a New York guy? >> Yeah. >> Toronto guy. >> Boston guy? >> Certainly. >> But as somebody who was born and raised in Chicago for 18 years, not a Chicago guy. >> 20 25 years. >> 25 years. >> No. >> No. Don't know much about it actually. What's up? >> This is the This is the Chicago moment. World famous wolf cheese. That's a meal. Each one of these is a meal. >> Where's the cheese? >> It's under the sauce. >> There's no cheese on it. >> It's under the sauce. I like some. >> Oh [ __ ] >> Super chill. You can >> Dad, I should do I should do this while I'm in Chicago. Right here. Right. Well, come on. Fantastic, man. It's just like I heard in the basement for the last 30 years. Starting when he was drumming in his high chair, applesauce dribbling out on a bib and everything. So, we got to get him some drums. He was born to perform. Music is his thing. He um and he expresses himself now. Who knew he was a poet, too? It's cool. Pretty cool for dad. >> I went from Chicago to Abu Dhabi to Bali to Vietnam. Abu Dhabi, Chicago, Istanbul, Usbekistan, Istanbul, Chicago. All in 10 days, mate. I was just like, I don't even know what the [ __ ] I'm gonna be doing. >> Kazi played for me. We started working together at Dirty Little Secret. >> You would have warmed up for Phil Bennison on Friday. We're talking 2009. We would go back to after parties and because he would peel off at his house, he would peel off and go into spare bedroom. >> Yeah. and work on music and then come back in to party. So, an hour you [ __ ] off, dude. Maybe play a track, [ __ ] off again, play a track. And you know, throughout all of this, this sort of classic North British, well, you know, like the DJing thing, it's nice, mate, but like your journey with music's just a little bit cute. It's a cool side project. And uh then you got picked up by Prince, who was your hero all along. You toured with him. You've done New Year's Eve for him a ton of times. And now you're doing your own stuff. It's It's unbelievable. Like to see somebody that you've tracked for basically two decades like achieve that dream is [ __ ] insane. It's so cool. And I mean this is the first time we've seen each other in what, two and a half years. >> Words cannot describe how important this is to me. My entire family's here. My best friends are here. I used to see concerts at the Vic. I lived down the street on Sheffield. I lived down the street for 2 years. Like this is [ __ ] crazy. Like I just it's it's it's just crazy. I don't know how else to say it, man. It's like it's not it's so unreal to me, but it means everything. You know, my you know, my parents are getting older, man. And my family unit is different now. We all have kids and we all have lives of our own. And it is really special to have them all come together as my family unit. There's no in-laws here. There's no kids. It's just them. And it's just me. It's their son playing for them and my my sisters and like that's very special, bro. And I don't know how many more of those I have left. So, I'm gonna take advantage of it tonight. That's for damn sure. >> Baby, don't you want to go? Back to the same old place. Sweet home >> Chicago got to do it. >> Good luck, man. >> Appreciate you guys. >> Chicago. Chicago. How we doing, >> man? I haven't I I haven't practiced this next song, but I got to do it cuz we're here in Chicago. And I'm gonna dedicate it to my dad who's uh who's in the audience and we used to play this song together in the in the basement. Come on, baby. Don't you want to go? >> Yeah. Come on, baby. Don't you want to go now? Yeah. Back to that same old place, my sweet home Chicago. Yeah. Well, I want to two and two is four. Come on, baby. Don't you love no more? Baby, don't you want to go back to that same old place? Sweet Chicago. Yeah. Come on, baby. Don't you want to go? Oh, come on. Yeah, baby. Don't you want to go now? Back to that same old place. My sweet. Oh, my sweet home Chicago. Let's go. Come on. I highly resonate with your idea or that that the quote you share about Jordan Peterson and the poison. And that's what concerns me, you know, sign me the [ __ ] up for poison. I love it. I want to take more of it. And that's what concerns me is how do I know when it's time to take the antidote of the present moment? >> Okay, so this is the archetype of the overachiever. I will take on more burden. Uh I did this bit on Rogan a couple of years ago where I talked about the region beta paradox. Region beta paradox you guys would call it. a zone of comfortable complacency where things aren't that bad that you actually are forced to make a change but they're not that good that you're satisfied. There's an inverse of that. The inverse region beta paradox any normal person would be kicked out the bottom of the discomfort that they're dealing with in life. But not you. You're the David Gogggins of working hard. Just [ __ ] pile the workload and the suffering on top of me, bro. I'll keep going. noble, charitable, supported, pro-social. The world needs more people who work hard. No one is going to congratulate you on your deathbed for having subjugated your needs and your desires for the entirety of your life. No one is going to say he never made a fuss. Very important for you to learn what you want in life. Victor Frankle said, uh, "When a man can't find a deep sense of meaning, he distracts himself with pleasure. There's an inverse of this too. When a man can't find a deep sense of pleasure, he distracts himself with meaning. If happiness, momentto moment happiness and joy don't come easily to you, you become a world champion at winning the marshmallow test. You delay gratification at Olympic level. Delayed gratification in the extreme results in no gratification. And yes, again, it's noble. And if you've got I mean, I can see the [ __ ] size of you. Like if you've got this lean in, chop wood, carry water mentality, [ __ ] brilliant. But dude, give yourself a break. Adjust your sights. I tend to optimize for meaning as opposed to happiness. I tend to delay gratification in the extreme. That probably means I could go on a a beach holiday for a little bit. Like, I'm just going to lie in a hammock and see how that feels. One final question that would be great to ask yourself. Uh I remember when CrossFit first came around and it was like um get comfortable being uncomfortable was the tagline. But for the people that do CrossFit, discomfort was not fran in under seven minutes. Discomfort would be lying on the couch for two weeks without training. So when people pick their own flavor of discomfort, they always pick it within the domain that they want. It's always more of the thing that they tend to do. So asking yourself a question, what would a proper holiday, phone free, work free, not an itinerary back toback, so your dopamine keeps getting triggered. It's like, oh, I'm on a beach and I look at my day and there is nothing. Oh my god, how terrifying. A day in the sun alone or with a friend or a partner. Like that sort of stuff to me is like the weirdest kind of exposure therapy ever. It's like the inverse Rocky cut scene, you know? Like you're not working out your life by going harder. You're giving yourself you're learning to love yourself and be enough as you are just by relaxing. So, those are some things. I commend you for how hard you work, dude. But [ __ ] give yourself a break. >> Hi. Um, so you and Harosi say there's no perfect way to live your 20s. Is there a perfect way to live your 30s? >> Very good. Yeah. Uh, Alex's quote is you either uh live them up and become an underworked 30-year-old or work them up and become an underlived 30-year-old, which is interesting. In my experience, you are never going to have as much free motivation in your 20s as any other time in your life, right? Like your 20s that you're just [ __ ] fueled by rubber, magic, caffeine, big dreams, uh this unrelenting fuel. So, in my 20s, I took a [ __ ] flamethrower to the candle. I didn't burn it at both ends. When you get into your 30s, I am super [ __ ] hesitant about being prescriptive with this here. as the unmarried guy without kids who wants kids and is like as soon as possible. Uh follow me with peril. However, realize that the fuel source that got you to where you are is not the one that will get you to where you need to be. I think uh you develop habits in your 20s and much of your 30s should be spent unwinding those. I don't think that you can shortcut it and say I'm going to go for balance from the off. I don't think that that's an optimal strategy. I think it's actually optimal to go all out on the thing that you want to do. Now, maybe that is building a family. Maybe that is building a career. Maybe that is getting educated, whatever it might be. But I think just dude, obsession has the lowest number of externality costs in your 20s than it will ever do. A lovely. Let's [ __ ] go for that. Then you get to 32 and you're like, I can't chill out on a beach holiday. [ __ ] The tool that got me here is not the one that will get me there. So, I I like to think Let me I'm going to bring a visual aid in here. Imagine that you're a rocket ship taking off like this. One of the old school ones, not one of the new [ __ ] Falcon 9 things. It's just got one engine. I need multiple engines for this. So you have the launch rocket that comes off comes out the bottom and then as it gets to a higher altitude those booster rockets turn on and then it goes a little higher and then those fall away into the Atlantic and then it goes again. The point is at different stages of development and altitudes you need to use a different fuel source and at the start you use what you have and most people have more fear, resentment, bitterness and a chip on their shoulder. [ __ ] brilliant, dude. Ripping something off the launch pad is the hardest part. It's the most difficult bit. It is a potent fuel. It's toxic if you use it for too long. So, when you start to develop a little bit, those are the patterns that fall away. So, for me, I would ask, what did I develop in my 20s that no longer serves me now? That would be the first question that I would ask myself. Kind of like going on a long trip. The start of it is you [ __ ] rowing across a river. you're now on land and you're still carrying a canoe. That would be one thing. Another thing that I would say, you can make a ton of mistakes in your 20s and probably bounce back. As you get a little bit older, the mistakes have bigger externalities, which is why people feel pressure. Feel a lot more pressure in their 30s to sort themselves out. Um, that pressure is normal in the same way as the lonely chapter stuff is super normal. It's supposed to be there. The question of, "Oh, [ __ ] like, this feels real. I can't just dick about anymore. I don't have the buffer that I used to." uh that gravity is also normal. That self-doubt is also supposed to be there. And it means again that you're a reflective human. It means that you're someone who cares about the outcomes that you're getting. What are the patterns I built up in my 20s that no longer serve me now? And what is the fuel source that I need to let go of in order to be able to come the next version of me? Those might be two things. me cover the land side in a champagne supernova. A champagne supernova in the sky. That's the best. You [ __ ] destroyed it, guys. Thank you so much for >> I [ __ ] love that shirt so much. >> Oh my god. I'm going to hate to kill it. I'm going to hate this guy. I'm going to feel like I [ __ ] know. taking an old dog out. Old yellow back. >> I'm twice as old as anybody here. He's never too old to learn. I think it's really tough to be a young man now. It's really tough. It was a lot easier when I was a young man. So many roads paths diverging and Chris is negotiating all of them. And I think the fact that he doesn't say this is the way this is I am the Lord, you know, his own problems addresses it. I I like that vulnerability. I like that a lot. I've seen Jack play this as good as I've seen him play in a long time. >> Oh, it was great, man. Like real modern wisdom, like authentic. You feel it. I can see how he's embracing everything he's learned over the past few years. It It was a wonderful show. [ __ ] clever. He also has been great show. I don't think a lot of my friends who came with me tonight has they've been kind of shocked by how much them can resonate with what Chris is saying. Do you know what I mean? Which is great. But he's always been a clever little [ __ ] As long as I've known him and like I can understand these big long words that he knows. He knows what he's on about. He's a doctor little bit. So you need to stop at >> best show I've ever seen in my life. >> Let's vlog together. >> When he was born I was very sad he was a boy. >> And then >> I didn't know this. Okay. So, he goes, "I want a hug." >> Yeah. >> No, I want a hug. >> Oh, God. >> He wants a hug. >> Okay. Are you taping us? >> I want a hug. >> What are we doing this for? >> It's like a home movie. >> It's a home movie. >> I do home movies. I think that might have been the best one of the run. That was [ __ ] epic. Uh, Chicago's brilliant. It was sick. I really loved it. Uh, I did not sleep good last night. So, I was kind of in my own head before I got on. Um, it's so weird because my sample set of live performances are so small that every single time I encounter something good or something that's a challenge, it's the first time ever. It's the first time I've ever done it on two hours sleep. It's the first time I've ever done it with the [ __ ] cold. It's the first time I've ever done it and this thing happened. First time I've ever done it and the sound cuts out. There's another one. A notch on the bed post of challenges completed. And uh lobby call is in 8 hours, 9 hours. I really really need to go home sleep. Whatever the [ __ ] that was. See you tomorrow. Tell you what, staying in the airport hotel might not exactly be very palatial, but it makes your commute to the flight the next day [ __ ] insane. I woke up 2 hours before we board the flight. No, 2 hours before we leave. Silly question by me. >> How is the head this morning? >> Cool. Been better. >> I let let's just say I didn't optimize. just had like a late night podcast. Me and Kristoff, the DJ from Newcastle. >> We were not up to no good. >> I maybe had six hours of sleep last night. But because I only had 2 hours of sleep the night before, today I feel like a [ __ ] dog. I feel like I could levitate. I don't actually think fatigue's real. I think it's all relative. >> Fatigue. >> Just relative. you know, I plugged it in and it started going down in percentage. I was like, "Oh, great. I'm back." I call Bennett and then >> I'm in Nashville. Got a little training session in which you can see I was just explaining about how when I came to America to do a road trip 2019, 4th of July in Nashville downtown, I ran the Nashville 5K first thing in the morning. went back to bed and slept and then went out to Broadway at 2 3 in the afternoon. I walked into Whiskey Row. There's a band on stage playing and they were singing Dan and Shay Tequila. I didn't know the song at the time. Nobody was looking at the band and everyone was at the bar and it was packed. I was like, "What the [ __ ] is going on?" Like, this band's great. Why is no one even looking at them? No one even seems to be celebrating. Everybody was stood at the bar and there's a bit in the song where he goes up an octave and he goes, "When I taste tequila and everybody put a shot in the air, drank it and then like hollered." And I was like, "Okay, I'm [ __ ] moving to America." So, this is the place that I decided I was going to move to America in this town. We're going to go to the bar where that happened tonight after the show. I've been gone for a little too long. I've been waiting on a drummer to kick off a comeback song. I've been waiting in the wings like a dog on a chain. I can feel this been a little while a short try to stop it but I can't call my name boy. He dug his way out of his grave. >> Really appreciate that. >> Look after your hand. >> Oh, there we go. Achilles, brother. Thanks for making me feel not alone, brother. I really appreciate it. Can I measure your forearm? >> There we go. >> 13. >> Thank you so much for everything. Like truly, your podcast got me out of a depressed phase in my life. >> Look after him. This show was amazing. >> Please look after him. It's very meaningful to me like so much. You've changed my life like insane and I just really appreciate you like more than anything. This time I'm taking what's mine like a long out of his mind in the town of his How you feeling, Max? I don't know what's happened, but I've managed to fluke it with like 4 hours sleep and a hangover. I feel great. So, at some point today, reality is going to smash me in the face. Uh, Nashville, you were fantastic last night, and today we're going to the Titans game. But, Max, I appreciate that you might be dying. So, there's bottled water. There's a mutonic stick pack and there's some creatine. There's some element. Here's coffee. >> Thanks, bro. >> You think you can survive now? >> Yeah. Thanks. >> Very kindly, we've been sorted out in the influencer suite today. Hopelessly outgunned in terms of legitimacy for that suite. Bailey Zimmerman's in there. Bailey Zimmerman is a very big country artist. It is also him whose song I walk out to on my live show that I'm on tour with right now. So, I'm going to be in the suite with the dude whose song I literally step onto stage with and used at the Apollo last year in London, used across all of Australia. >> That is unreal. >> It's really, really cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I imagine he's infinitely cooler than I am. Bailey, Bailey, let me let me tell you about how to optimize your adenosine sister on an evening. Have you heard about intermittent fasting? There is a dessert. >> I'm going to hit the red velvet. It look, there's a good amount of frosting on the red velvet. Here's my theory about red velvet. The frosting to velvet ratio has to be high. I need high amount of frosting to like a moderate amount of red velvet. Ladies, you're wonderful. >> You're welcome. >> This is [ __ ] fantastic. The view's great. >> The food is better. I'm waiting for my first home run. Michael Jordan any minute now. >> Same for the vlog. >> What up vlog? It's Bailey AND WE'RE IN THE TITANS GAME. LET'S GO. >> DUDE, that's sick. It's crazy. This guy is my his walk out song is my song. >> What are the ones? Yeah, I'm anything but new country. >> Okay, >> the fatigue is setting in. It's 2:30 p.m. and I need to go and nap. I'm sick. Sleep was fantastic. Tennessee Titans. Uh the hospitality is wonderful. Politely, the football could have been better. Uh but the company was great, so I'm going back to bed. They wanted to have a witness. >> How you doing? Nice to meet you. >> Good to see you. >> Very nice to meet you. >> This is a cool spot. I was just telling I never knew this this building existed. >> I didn't I mean I don't choose the location but the guys know what I sort of tend to prefer like uh somewhere between Crack and Chic and uh like a a music. Nailed it. People just remember that. And it's a lot of times people that are like really famous and really successful just like that sucks. And it's like that's a moment where I beat myself up cuz I was thinking Thank you so much. Awesome. Let's keep in touch. I needed to pee before it started. I kind of came over and was like, "We've only got an hour. You're going to have to be quick." And I'm like, "Okay, bladder. Don't need to I don't need to hear from you for 60 minutes. >> It's cold." Two episodes today. Hardy and Brett Cooper. Hardy is a [ __ ] unbelievable country and rock artist and also one of the best songwriters in Nashville, which is maybe the hardest place on the planet to be a good songwriter. Uh, and then Break Cooper, um, wonderful commentator, farmer, uh, lady of the internet. Uh, so it'll be good. First time eating Hardy. He rules. Great storyteller. Yeah, definitely does feel a little bit like, um, back in the old grind, the old 9 to5 grind after uh, doing my nighttime shift, which is doing the live show. I I genuinely think that doing the live show is making me better as a podcaster because it's forcing me to improvise more. Um, it's forcing me to be able to perform under more nerves, uh, higher stakes. So, yeah, sitting down opposite Hardy is an artist that, uh, was his song Rednecker was part of the playlist of 30 songs that convinced me to move to America in 2019. Um, Truck Bed as well, another like legendary song. nostalgic important parts of my history, but there wasn't even the slightest little flick. I'm just I'm just fired up to speak to him. And I think if it hadn't been for doing some of the exposure therapy that I have, you could think about you think about the live shows as exposure therapy. That's what I'm doing. >> Does somebody live here? >> No. >> We're unsure. >> So, is this like a pier space? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Sometimes I never know. Like we show up to these I'm like I think somebody So funny. We did a couple of daily lawyer shoots with Pierce Space thing. There was one we used multiple times and people would like hide upstairs. >> Oh. >> And they had cats that were like free range and so and they were like that's part of it though is you like can't we can't like control our cats to be able to be running like okay sounds good. >> What are your thoughts on the conservative civil war? >> Starting off strong. No. That was fun. Sorry I missed your show. >> I can't wait to see it. >> End of a big week that [ __ ] hell. Three shows, three states, three days, two episodes, one day football game, half hangover. Completed it, mate. There's definitely a different type of nourishment of doing the live stuff, of traveling, of having a group of people with you. For so long, dude, it's just been me in my bedroom on my own mastering audio files or recording thousands of ad reads or sending invoices or doing emails. It's nice to do differently. I'm on the road with my best friends and team and they're having a good time. Like, they're enjoying it independently of the fact that I'm enjoying it. It definitely feels like a different pathway of fulfillment. I know you've been eating carbs your entire life and this is some protein or this is some fat or whatever. It's a different macronutrient to enjoy. This week's been great. Really, really, really good. Three shows, three states, three days travel. I had one day at home from the LA run, which you saw on the vlog. I was home for one day and then I was back out to Boston, Boston, Chicago, Nashville. One day to go to the football and prep for today. Two shoots in a day. Home tonight. Got Tuesday, Wednesday, Austin show Thursday. Strange. A lot of the time people feel like they deserve time off because they've worked so hard. I feel like I've deserved time working hard because I've had so much time off. And um it is odd to earn your right to be in chaos uh the same way that you earn your right to be in peace. So I've really enjoyed the chaos.
