1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction unplugged because we will always say

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,440
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.

3
00:00:07,719 --> 00:00:10,919
So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged.

4
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,480
Let's be honest here. Okay, anybody who gives you just

5
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,519
enough attention to find interest in what you're doing, be

6
00:00:17,559 --> 00:00:20,239
it a hobby, be it your job, be it something

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,359
that you just want to explore. To find somebody to

8
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,640
be truly interested in what you're doing can be a long,

9
00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:30,879
long process, and when you do, you try to explain

10
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,880
it in a way that kind of dummies down the

11
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,640
conversation because if you were to bring your entire self

12
00:00:36,679 --> 00:00:39,320
into it and why you've got this strange passion to

13
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,240
bring these things to life, they're gonna go a, I

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,439
don't get it, I don't get it, and they end

15
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,479
up going Okay, at least I ask, but I have

16
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,520
no idea where you are. And that has happened to

17
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,200
me so many times when it comes to the subjects

18
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,399
of podcasting. If you don't live the life, if you

19
00:00:54,479 --> 00:00:57,719
don't listen to podcasting, if you are not part of

20
00:00:57,759 --> 00:01:01,520
that circle, it can be something that is very, very

21
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,159
difficult to truly understand because there are so many moving

22
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:08,719
parts that have all got to come together to create

23
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,959
a connection not between me and the podcast, but me

24
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,799
and you. Now, how do we grow from this? Heyt Zero?

25
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,000
This is the daily Mess, the chronological walk through an

26
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,280
everyday world. I am a daily writer. I am the

27
00:01:22,359 --> 00:01:24,920
silent wolf. I sit beneath the brush of the trees

28
00:01:25,159 --> 00:01:28,959
and I just watch life. You learn from things when

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,879
you have the patience to just watch and then do

30
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,359
a little bit of research, dig in and find out

31
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,560
why is it this is happening? It creates a greater,

32
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,319
better conversation. This is the daily Mess. I did do

33
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,079
it yesterday. I made the attempt to explain to a

34
00:01:45,079 --> 00:01:50,879
coworker how time isn't important in the world of podcasting.

35
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,040
He's going, do you try to break the latest news?

36
00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:56,000
Are you like releasing everything so that people can be

37
00:01:56,079 --> 00:01:59,040
in the moment? And it's like, well, it doesn't work

38
00:01:59,079 --> 00:02:02,480
that waycause because I could talk about this gigantag movie

39
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,959
opening up for the weekend, and by the time a

40
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:09,400
listener receives that episode of the podcast, that movie premiere

41
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,520
could have been one week ago, a year ago, maybe

42
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,479
even a decade ago. Here's a good example, I was

43
00:02:15,479 --> 00:02:18,080
blessed to speak with one of country music's biggest legends,

44
00:02:18,159 --> 00:02:23,800
Roy Clark, in the year two thousand, fourteen. Nine years later,

45
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:29,479
it's still getting a huge amount of listens. Those receiving

46
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,639
aren't thinking, wow, that sounds like twenty fourteen. I often

47
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,240
wonder if we should practice this more in our everyday society,

48
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:41,879
spending less time mile marking our experiences and just going

49
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,800
with the flow. It's completely one hundred percent natural to

50
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,759
use music as a free ticket to ride, to allow

51
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,000
your thinking and other motions to go back into those

52
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,439
days that we always called the good old days. Well,

53
00:02:55,439 --> 00:03:00,599
here's the challenge. Don't go back allowed the those old

54
00:03:00,719 --> 00:03:06,719
songs to have your present day experience. So many people think,

55
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,400
how is it, How is it you don't act like

56
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:12,639
you're an old man? Because I don't believe I am,

57
00:03:13,199 --> 00:03:15,599
even though the numbers say, yeah, you're an old guy.

58
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,840
But the way I think and the way that I

59
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,919
lived my life, I take those old songs and I

60
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,039
give them new experiences. I don't sit around saying, man,

61
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,400
back in nineteen seventy seven, oh my god, you should

62
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,400
have seen the world. Back then, they were wearing bell

63
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:33,800
bottoms or even today, that's one of the biggest things.

64
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,039
I'm in a mile market right now. One of the

65
00:03:36,039 --> 00:03:39,039
biggest fashion statements in twenty twenty three is the return

66
00:03:39,319 --> 00:03:41,879
of the bell bottoms. Now here's where I've made my

67
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,919
mistakes in trying to build a conversation around today's bell

68
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,680
bottoms versus the bell bottoms that we had in nineteen

69
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,400
seventy five nineteen seventy seven. See, back then we were

70
00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:56,080
writing Stingray Bicycles. We had ten speeds, we were always

71
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,360
on that bike, and we wore our bell bottoms, and

72
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:02,319
what would happen The bell bottoms would get caught up

73
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,240
in the chain. Now, have that conversation with somebody wearing

74
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,199
bell bottoms today, they look at you and they go, huh,

75
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:11,240
I don't get it. The reason why you don't get

76
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,280
it is you just told me you don't ride a bike.

77
00:04:14,199 --> 00:04:18,360
But in nineteen seventy five we did. Everywhere every kid

78
00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:21,399
had a bike. So when I say that, when I

79
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,720
made the attempt to explain to a co worker what

80
00:04:24,879 --> 00:04:27,680
podcasting was all about, it's the same thing about having

81
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,319
a conversation with somebody who's wearing modern day bell bottoms.

82
00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:34,879
Try to explain to them what we did right or

83
00:04:34,959 --> 00:04:38,000
wrong back in the seventies compared to how they're designed today.

84
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,079
And it's what exactly, And so that's why I say,

85
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,839
let's take the old songs and give them a new experience.

86
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:50,519
Don't rely on your past to become your legacy. Let

87
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,279
your now be the story writer. I'm Arrow, and that's

88
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:55,120
the daily mess.
