NOW
NOW THROUGH AUGUST 25TH WITH CLUB CARD WHERE APPLICABLE DAY SALARIES SONG YOU'RE LISTENING
TO RIGHT NOW IT'S CALLED A
HOME. IT'S WRITTEN BY JOHN
RICH. YOU KNOW, HALF A BIG AND
RICH COUNTRY SUPERSTAR. WELL,
IT HASN'T EXACTLY BEEN SITTING
DOWN DURING THE PANDEMIC. A
LOT'S BEEN GOING ON INCLUDING
SOME TRAGIC NEWS THAT WE HAVE
TO SHARE. JOB LOST. GRAMMY
RICH. HIS BELOVED GRANDMOTHER
JUST A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. AND
JOHN FIRST I JUST WANT TO
EXTEND MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES
TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. MY
GRANDMOTHER WAS REALLY MORE
LIKE MY MOTHER. I MEAN I WAS SO
TIGHT WITH HER. YOU KNOW, ONE
OF HER BIGGEST PIECES OF ADVICE
WAS, YOU KNOW, WHEN THINGS GET
TOUGH, REMEMBER THAT THINGS
HAVE BEEN TOUGH BEFORE IN THIS
COUNTRY AND THERE'S ALWAYS
GOING TO BE TOUGH THINGS THAT
HAPPEN. AND WHAT YOU HAVE TO
REMEMBER IS AS SHE WOULD SAY,
WE LIVE IN THE GREATEST COUNTRY
IN THE WORLD. AND IF ANYBODY
CAN GET THROUGH A TOUGH TIME
AND HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK
FORWARD TO. IT'S US BECAUSE
WE'RE AMERICA. WE HAVE GREAT
THINGS IN OUR FUTURE. THERE ARE
GREAT THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD
TO. SHE SAID IF YOU LIVED IN
ANOTHER COUNTRY, IF YOU LIVED
IN A COMMUNIST COUNTRY OR A
SOCIALIST COUNTRY OR A COUNTRY
THAT WAS LOCKED DOWN BECAUSE OF
ANYTHING AND PEOPLE DIDN'T HAVE
FREEDOM, THEY DON'T HAVE A LOT
TO LOOK FORWARD TO. SHE WOULD
SAY. AND THAT THAT WOULD KEEP
THEM FROM MAYBE EVEN WANTING TO
PUSH THROUGH A TOUGH TIME. BUT
IN AMERICA WE HAVE BLUE SKY
TERRITORY IN FRONT OF US AT ALL
TIMES. SHE WAS AN INCREDIBLE
WOMAN AND HAS LEFT QUITE A
LEGACY. LET'S TALK ABOUT
THE HONOR BECAUSE IT'S A VERY
IMPORTANT CHARITY AND IT'S
REALLY HELPED PEOPLE INCLUDING
RIGHT HERE IN SAN DIEGO KEEP
THEIR KIDS IN SCHOOL AND
EDUCATED IN SCHOLARSHIPS. SO
IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW, JOHN,
BECAUSE THE SCHOOL SYSTEM AND
RULES AND REGULATIONS ARE ALL
OVER THE PLACE. YES. SO FOLGER
BONNER YOU KNOW, WHEN I LEARNED
ABOUT WHAT THEY DO, THEY PUT
KIDS THROUGH COLLEGE WHO LOST A
PARENT IN COMBAT OR A SPOUSE TO
COLLEGE WHO LOST THEIR SPOUSE
OR HAS A SPOUSE THAT'S 100
PERCENT DISABLED. AND YOU KNOW,
WE MAKE IT A HABIT OF SAYING
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO
OUR MILITARY, OUR VETERANS
ACTIVE DUTY IN AN AIRPORT AT A
RESTAURANT WHEREVER YOU MIGHT
SEE ONE OF THOSE MEN AND WOMEN.
BUT TO ME FOLDS OF HONOR TAKES
IT TO A ENTIRELY DIFFERENT
LEVEL A DEEPER LEVEL AND THAT
WOULD BE LOOK AFTER THE FAMILY
MEMBERS THAT ARE LEFT BEHIND,
ESPECIALLY THEIR KIDS. AND I
THINK IF YOU COULD ASK ANY MAN
OR WOMAN NOT ONLY GOING INTO
COMBAT BUT ASK YOU OR ASKED ME
IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO US,
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO DO
FOR YOU, JOHN? I WOULD SAY LOOK
AFTER MY KIDS. MAKE SURE MY
KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT AND THAT'S
EXACTLY HOW ALL PARENTS FEEL.
SO REDNECK WHISKEY NOW HAS
FUNDED OVER A HUNDRED COLLEGE
SCHOLARSHIPS IN THE PAST TWO
YEARS AND MORE COMING AT
THE END OF THIS YEAR AND THEY
HAVE TAKEN A BIG HIT DURING
OCTOBER 19 BECAUSE YOU KNOW, A
LOT OF PEOPLE LOST THEIR JOBS.
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SCARED TO
SPEND ANY EXTRA PENNY THAT THEY
DON'T HAVE TO WHICH IS TOTALLY
UNDERSTANDABLE. BUT THE THING
ABOUT FOLDS OF HONOR IS YOU CAN
GO TO FOLDS OF HONOR OR GEE
DAWG MAN IF YOU GIVE THEM FIVE
BUCKS FIVE BUCKS A MONTH, TELL
YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT IT. IT STILL
PICKS IT BACK UP AND MOVES
THE BALL FORWARD. I THINK IT'S
AN INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT CHARITY
AND THAT'S WHY REDNECK RIVIERA
WHISKEY 10 PERCENT OF EVERY
SINGLE BOTTLE SO GOES RIGHT TO
THOSE GUYS. THANK YOU FOR WHAT
YOU'RE DOING AND CONTINUING TO
STAY INVOLVED IN THAT HUGELY
IMPORTANT ORGANIZATION. I ALSO
WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT JUST
STAY POSITIVE RIGHT NOW. HOW DO
YOU DO IT, JOHN? LIKE WHERE
DOES THAT COME FROM? I MUST BE
RICH WAS A HUGE INFLUENCE FOR
YOU BUT BESIDES HER WORDS OF
WISDOM, HOW DO YOU FIND
POSITIVITY IN ALL THIS? WELL, I
MEAN I THINK THE WAY WE FEEL IS
IN OUR COUNTRY RIGHT NOW IS
THAT THINGS ARE OUT OF CONTROL
AND OUT OF OUR CONTROL. AND AT
THOSE MOMENTS IN MY LIFE,
WHETHER IT'S PROFESSIONALLY OR
PERSONALLY, YOU'VE GOT TO
IDENTIFY ONE OR TWO THINGS THAT
YOU STILL CAN CONTROL THAT MAY
BE OK. I CAN'T CONTROL MY JOB.
I CAN'T CONTROL WHAT'S GOING ON
AT SCHOOL. I CAN'T CONTROL ANY
THINGS. WHAT CAN I CONTROL? I
CAN CONTROL HOW MANY PUSHUPS I
DO EVERY DAY. I CAN CONTROL HOW
HOW MANY HOW MUCH TIME I SPEND
WITH MY KIDS. THE TO BASEBALL
OUT IN THE PARK TO FOCUS ON
THINGS YOU CAN CONTROL AND
CONTROL THEM. WELL, YOU KNOW,
MY GRANNY RICH SAID NOBODY EVER
LAID ON THEIR DEATHBED AND SAID
MAN, I WISH I JUST WOULD HAVE
WORKED A LITTLE BIT MORE.
NOBODY EVER SAID THAT. YOU
KNOW, YOU SAY I WISH I WOULD'VE
SPENT MORE TIME WITH MY FAMILY.
I WISH I WOULD HAVE DONE THINGS
THAT LAST BEYOND YOURSELF AND I
THINK THAT'S THAT'S HOW WE
SHOULD LOOK AT THIS OPPORTUNITY
OF COVERED 19 IF YOU WANT TO
LOOK AT IT LIKE THAT. WELL
SAID. ABSOLUTELY FINE. WANT TO
TALK TO YOU REAL QUICK THOUGH.
I WOULD LOVE FOR BIG AND RICH
AND OF COURSE EVERY MUSICIAN
WHO WANTS TO BE BACK ON TOUR
AND FIND A WAY THERE IS ANY
TALK ABOUT WHEN THAT COULD
POSSIBLY HAPPEN. I GUESS IT'S
ALL GOING TO DEPEND ON ON
TREATMENTS FOR THIS THING. YOU
KNOW, IF IT CAN EVER BE TREATED
LIKE A REGULAR FLU. HEY, DO YOU
HAVE A TAMIFLU COVE AT 19 ONCE
SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENS AND
AND IT'S A MORE MANAGEABLE
SITUATION WHICH I'M HOPING IS
SOON I THINK 20 21 THE PENT UP
ENERGY OF MUSIC FANS AND
ARTISTS. I CAN SEE YOU SMILING
BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE FED UP
WITH IT TOO. I THINK IT COMES
OUT LIKE AN ABSOLUTE TIDAL WAVE
OF TOURING 20 21. I WISH YOU
ALL THE BEST. JOHN RICH OF BIG
AND RICH AND FULL OF WISDOM. WE
APPRECIATE YOUR TIME THIS
MORNING. WANTED TO CONGRATULATE
YOU AGAIN ON ALL OF YOUR HARD
WORK WITH FULL TIME HONOR AND
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK DONE.
