 And also with the salvation thing, I guess I'm kind of calling God's bluff on that because if God is, people say God is. You always got to be super careful with this. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. The zoom thing? It's a, it's a microphone, but it's stereo. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay. You going to these? Yeah, not the same model. You make music? Yeah. Nice. What do you play? In the basement. Same here if I had a basement. Yeah. But I got like my own little room where I just stuff all instruments in it. There you go. Well, you know, actually I do more words, writing and then sing a little bit. That takes a lot of work. It does take a lot of work. Yeah. Because you always have like this high standard of what you want. Yeah. If it doesn't need it, you're just like, race everything. Oh yeah. Yeah, I got some friends, we've been doing this about 10, maybe longer than that. Okay. We meet up in a friend of mine's basement over in Englewood. Englewood Social Club is the name of the band. Okay. We only play in John's basement. That's pretty cool. Because we're all about just doing it for ourselves. And you know, they were professional musicians for a while. Okay. The other guys that I've met. And I read sound, but that's just, I would just rather just, I like recording the whole performance thing in front of people. Yeah, yeah. And I can take that or leave off. Same here. Same here. I cannot do my best live. Yeah. And I found like recording, especially since I know I'm going to be listening to my stuff more than anybody else. Yeah. I want to get it crafted. Yeah. And it improves it as well. But like you also develop an ear for when you record compared to like live, here it is, you're done. Yeah, that's true. That's true. Yeah. There's different schools of thought. So anyway, like I said, I wouldn't take up the most of your time. Okay. I got a five minute timer. Yeah. You can talk more if you want. Okay. Or anyone should be able to talk to anyone about anything. Yeah. And all I do is ask questions and try to figure out like is the, is this thing that you really hold really important? Did you use a real app or a way to get there or not? Oh, okay. That's about it. Okay. Is there anything that you really strongly believe is true, anything you're motivated by something you know you can't be wrong about? Wow. You know. By the way, I'm Ty. I forgot to introduce myself. Ty, Landry. Landry? Yeah, yeah. How do you spell that? D-N-D-R-Y. D-R-Y. Yep. D-N-D-R-Y. Yeah. What's the thing you're most confident about? You're not confident, period. You're not confident. Anything. Is there anything of those things? That's fine. That's a good place to start. In my opinion, I think that's all right. Yeah. But what's something you know like it's got to be like this? Uh, something that's got to be like this. Something like you've like actually molded your life around because you're so confident about this. Yeah. Yeah. I would think the, um, well like the spiritual thing. I'm confident that whether there's a God or not, that doesn't have a lot to do with my daily life. Oh. What I need to do in my daily life is focus on the resources that I have. The time, the money, the relationships, and how can I best use those relationships to do whatever it is I'm trying to do. Which, just so I can understand that. Yeah. You're saying like whether or not there is a God, it's not part of my daily concern. Yeah. It's kind of a road. It's like, um, on a different, a different field. It's like who the president is. I mean that definitely affects my life. But whoever's in that office, I still have to get up and go to work. Sure. I still have to pay bills. Sure. Yeah. I still have to pay my family and my friends and all that. You gotta watch over your shoulders sometimes. Yeah, still. Exactly. Is he following me? Yeah. Come on, it's on me again. Come on. They found about the... Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. I mean it doesn't matter whether it's somebody that I like or somebody that I don't like. I still have, you know, certain things that I have to do. Coming at this from like a more spiritual, religious angle. There might be people who would say, pretend it was me saying it. Yeah. You know, you're a long-term salvation. Or you're the sanctity of your soul. The security of you and your afterlife. It's entirely dependent on what you do on a day-to-day basis. Better go, this should be a concern for you. Yeah. What would you say to someone like that? I would say you might be right. But I don't have any proof either way. And my experience has taught me that if I do the best I can right now, that long-term stuff will work it out. And I learned that from managing my money. You know, you spend some but you've got to save some. I learned that from eating food. I mean, there's a lot of food that I like to eat that's not necessarily healthy. Yeah, there's a lot. So I just eat less of it. There's a place I go to in Nashville. Yeah. The only one I'm here for Sunday assembly. Yeah. It's burritos. They're like three feet long. Holy crap. And they're like this thick. Yeah. There's a place in which I'm going to go a little tangent. Little tangent. Yeah. They're like three feet to ten feet. As long as you want. Yeah. They'll just be layering tortilla shells. Wow. And burritos. Yeah. I found a place that does that here. And I'm like, great. Now I don't have to drive to Lexington. But once in a while. Lexington is a long way. Yeah. It's four hours. But I did the Google Maps. I was like, we'll just sit there for a minute. Yeah. But yeah, food, if you take it in moderation, if you manage it well long-term, you're going to be better off than you would if you didn't manage it. Yeah. And also with the salvation thing, I guess I'm kind of calling God's bluff on that. Because if God is, people say God is, then surely he would understand a person that's just like, I've got these resources. I'm going to make the best use of them. And when I get to that point across in that bridge going to the afterlife, well, I'll deal with that then. Surely the person will understand that, you know, you did the best you had with what you could. And if they want to punish me and throw me in hell for that, well, I will go. I'll be like, hi. I'd rather be there then. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Let me throw out this idea. A Christian comes and says, maybe not even a Christian, but just someone who's vaguely Christian. He says, all God wants, if you read the Bible, the context of God is someone who has a lot of power that just desperately wants to be loved. He could have made you love him automatically, but he's giving you that choice himself. And he's made all these other things. He's made, you know, he's sacrificed himself for the cross for you. He's doing things for you, but he's not asking anything other than, please love me if you're capable of doing that. Couldn't you just do that? Couldn't you just say, hey, on a daily basis, could you just pray? I could do that. Could you just give 10% of your paychecks? Like, is that really? Too far? Too far. Too far. All right, all right. Go back to the prayer. Go back to the prayer. Go back to the prayer. You know, just daily prayer. I've heard that line of thing before. And, you know, it makes me wonder about God's mental health. You know, you can do all of this stuff, and you're giving all these gifts to somebody who hasn't asked for them. I didn't ask for it. You didn't ask for him to call his own son. Yeah, yeah, if you want to do that, go right ahead. You didn't ask for that. I appreciate it. I take care of my own self. Sure, sure, sure. You know, it sounds to me a lot like a relationship, you know, a romantic relationship where one person is controlling but in a very passive, aggressive kind of way. I'm going to build you this house. I'm going to give you eternal life. I'm going to do this, that, and the other. I know you didn't ask for it, but I just want to do it because I love you. And I want you to love me in return. But with that love, there are conditions because the wages of sin is death. Sure. Yeah, you know, all of sin comes short of the glory of God. So there's a failed threat in there too. You don't love me well. You know, there's bad stuff that's going to happen to you. There's definitely a stick behind the carrier. Yeah. And if God is a person who set this system up in the first place, then that is designed into the system. And I don't want to play by those rules. How about this? I'm going to say something a little controversial. Okay. Christians got it wrong. Yeah. God didn't say anything about hell. Yeah. God didn't say anything about punishment. He was just like, hey, I made this. I love you. Yeah. Have fun, you know? Like, I want you guys to enjoy this. And, you know, give me a little credit. Yeah. That's all I'm asking for. Yeah. But like, if you don't, that's no problem because, hey, we're all going to party in the afterlife anyway. Yeah. I would definitely be more receptive to that. Yeah. Yeah, that sounds more like a dated girl who's Hindu at one time. Okay. And they have just a lot of different variations. And one of the things that they believe is that, you know, God is God. It doesn't matter what you call it. You call it Jesus. You call it Krishna. You call it whatever. Yeah. And they're a lot more relaxed about that. At least my understanding. Sure. Sure. But they seem a lot more relaxed about the rules and the regulations. And it is more of a, you know, hey, I did this. I want you to enjoy it. You know, give me some credit if you want. If you want, it's no big deal. Yeah. Yeah. And I can relate to that. I can appreciate that. But it still wouldn't make me want to go to church every week. I see. I don't see the benefit for me in that. I'm going to throw in one last thing. Okay. If it turned out that we could demonstrate right now, an awful little reasonable case for you to say, hey, this God does exist. Yeah. The Christian God, as depicted in the Bible, does, without a fact, 100% exist. Yeah. Wouldn't necessarily mean that you'd start worshiping him. What? No. I think it might mean, though, that Christians would have a crisis because Christianity is based on faith. Mm-hmm. And faith is about believing something without evidence. Mm-hmm. So if you suddenly provide evidence... Like, now we have it. Now we know where it is. Yeah. Right there. We've got an email link to him. Yeah. He's got a Gmail account. Yeah. It's all security. Yeah. He stopped by the other day and we had him here, you know. He's rewriting things in the sky like we found him. Yeah. But... Daily concerns? No, not really. Well, yeah. It would be kind of... I think I would probably treat it like somebody asked me once if Jesus moved in next door to me. Sure. And, you know, treat him like I treat my other neighbors. For the most part, I'd ignore him. But, you know... If he needed anything, you know... Why is that always the brother's solution? It's like... Wait, it fixes a lot. Probably, it's true. Because when I go home, I'm like, I don't want to talk to any of these people. For real? I got some people coming down. I was like, can you help me get this? It's like, I just moved here. Yeah. I'm going inside. That's it. Because I just don't want to deal with it. Exactly. But, you know, at the same time, he had a flat tire or whatever. Yeah. I'd be there for him. Because that's what neighbors do. Exactly, yeah. And, you know, I'd probably invite him over for a coffee or a drink. If they're moving, I'll drink once. Yeah. Yeah. But, you know, we don't need to be best friends. We just live next to each other. Yeah. At the same time, if we turn out to be best friends, well, then that's good. But, you know... Right. Right. I'm fine with that. Let me think. Yeah. What would you say then? What would be your ideal God that would let you give some sort of daily concern to him or her? Oh, wow. That's a good question. What would it take for you to fit that? That's a good question. Because, I don't know, we probably have to be married or something. Mm-hmm. Because, I mean, I see my wife every day. But, you know, I love my mom. She lives right across town. Yeah. But, you know, we'll trade texts. Not even then is daily. We'll trade texts most days. Okay. But what capacity would meet that? Like, what qualities would that be need for you to be like... All right. Now it's daily. Yeah. Well, it would have to be some type of partnership. Okay. Where we were working together in service of a common goal. Oh. Yeah. Have you ever seen, like, Early Edition? Have you ever seen it? No. It's a show where a guy gets tomorrow's newspaper one day early. Okay. Yeah. And the guy who gives it to him is like a delivery man, but he's clearly an allegory for God. Yeah, yeah. And you don't figure that until like a couple of seasons later in. Oh, okay. But the guy who gets the newspaper is like run down. He's like his wife left him. Yeah. He's lost his home. He only has a hotel and his best friends that he's leaching off of. But he's a good person because he keeps going out of his way to be like, who got murdered today? Let me stop that. Which one? What God brought today? Let me stop that. And then the newspaper changes in real time so that there's no bad things. And people complain like, there's never anything good in the newspaper. It's just always boring. It's like, yeah, because I'm working. I'm grinding. I'm grinding, right? That's what he's doing on the download. But like the newspaper delivery guy and the guy who's down and out doing all that hard work, they have like a relationship with each other. Yeah. Because this guy is giving newspapers to everybody and everyone, one person in every city is trying to do their best to maintain everything better. Yeah. Something like that. Oh, yeah. Something like that. I like that. I like that. Yeah. It's like, hey, delegate some stuff to me for a common goal to make everyone's life better. Yeah. And I'll check in on you. Exactly. Then we're both investing on it. There's not that stick with the carrot kind of thing. Yeah. Yeah. Wow, that's really good. Okay, cool. Yeah. Nice, man. Nice. Yeah. You have a card. Sure. Yeah, I'd love it. Yeah. I'll give you a card. There you go. Oh, cool. Yeah. You have access to your music on this? Yeah. Could you write it down? I'll write it down. Yeah, yeah. I got a pencil. Oh, wait. I got a pen. I got a legit pen. Yeah. That was a good chat. Yeah. Yeah. I'll put it on here. Nice. Yeah. That's legit. Yeah. And we've also signed up with this company called DistroKid, which will, for like a yearly fee, they'll put your music on Apple Music, on Amazon, on all of the streaming services and everything. Automatically? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. You just pay the fee and upload the file, you know, put in information, you know, the band name, credits and all that stuff. Sure, sure, sure. And they'll send it out. Yeah. Not bad. Yeah. That's a good thing. You play the, or you say it's spoken word only? Well, spoken word. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm getting into that right now. Really? Yeah. I've been singing into a microphone that was like, only for like podcasting. Oh, yeah. And then finally upgraded to like, you know, room art. Oh, yeah, yeah. Highly super, what do you call it? Yeah. Directional. Yeah. Yeah. And realizing how much I needed to work on now that I can hear myself. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And then the song, I mean, especially the song, like the reality, because it took me a lot to even develop the ear to like hear like, that's veggie, but now I'm hearing this stuff. Like even the ride over here, I'm listening to somebody listening to, like, these songs I'm listening to, not as I'm talking to a phone, but like, it's taking a while to find the notes. And like I'm, I like that earnestness of it. But it's clearly something where I've learned how to hear music differently. Because of that, I kind of ruined music from, you know, a weird way. This isn't good, this isn't quality good. Like, I mean, and when you find the band that you love, you're like, these guys know what they're doing. Exactly, yeah. This is like mixed well. Yeah. The ensemble's good, the talent distribution's great. No one's stepping on each other. Yeah, yeah, all works together. You know Steely Damn? Yeah. Oh my gosh. I love that. They recorded an analog. Like, they didn't even have anything digital back in the day, and it still sells good. Yeah. How did this clear? Yeah. I had a huge budget. Really? And they would, because they would, they would record a song with one band one day, because it was just the two main guys by the late 70s. True, true, true. And so they'd bring in a bunch of guys and record a couple of songs. The next day, they'd bring in a different band. Same songs again. And one of those things, they invented a drum machine. Yes, yeah, yeah. Yeah, because they needed to. I forgot the guy's name. Percy? Yeah, I don't remember either. He's a classic. He is a classic. And he's also the guy that did the tech stuff as a journalist, too, for some music magazine. He might be dead now, actually. But he used to write in some music magazine. I remember reading an article that he wrote about how we need to do this with the drums and have this technology. But, you know, I had a little bit of programming skills. We had this thing. The other one, we were able to make something that worked. Yeah. They had like a really high standard. And I know for the drummer, he was like one of the first person to revolutionize how you'd even record like that. Because before they would do it Beal style, where it's just one microphone in the center, and everyone got around it playing to the mic. But he's like, no, I need six microphones. One for the kick, one for the cymbals, one for this, and people are like, what are you even doing? It's like, no, I don't need this microphone. I need that microphone, because it's higher and it's a little bit more jittery. And you put this here, and they need to be equal distances from each other. So the sound waves hit them at the same time. He was super technical. And people were like, you're insane. And Steve Lee Dan was like, you want to do some music with us? Exactly. And the question was, do we have people who did it? It did. But it did. It's like, yeah. And fucking animal. Yes. It's like, bad take. Throughout the tape, we have to record it again. There's no rewind. And the tape, you know, you can only record on at once, because if you re-record it again, you can erase it all the way. Yeah. And those masters, I think they were all magnetic for the most part. So like, at a certain point, they won't exist anymore. Yeah. Lose the polarity. Exactly. So everyone was just racing against the clock and making the highest quality stuff that could exist in the moment. And he said, these guys love music. Yeah. I love music too. Yeah. Me too. Almost as much as food. Maybe it's going to be good. Oh, yeah. Can't live off of music. Maybe you can. Maybe you can. You can't eat music. Well, you just need to make a genre when you've got the same time, too. There you go. You're done. There you go. So I took it out of here. Thanks so much. Appreciate you. Thanks for doing it.
