What's up guys? Welcome to the Granger Smith podcast episode 30. Thank you for listening.

Thank you for watching. I'm grateful for you. I'm grateful to be here. I'm grateful to have this

platform every Monday where I get to sit in here and talk about my thoughts and talk to my good friends and last week talk to my wife, answer some of your questions.

You know this whole podcast started on the back of my bus,

Wildflower, when we were heavily touring,

and I would sit back on that bus

and be able to tell stories, tell you where I came from, tell you what my thoughts were,

tell you what about new songs that were going to come out.

And that was a cool way to vent during those touring days.

Those touring days are temporary halted, right?

Temporarily halted.

And so this gives me a new platform

to sit here and talk during this this crazy time this historic time and I'm a history buff

I love history I studied history at Texas A&M I'm a I'm a big nerd when it comes to World War II and depression and of all the bad things that are happening

right now that one of the cool things is, one of the good things is that we're living in a piece of history,

of world history that will be remembered forever.

Maybe not like World War II was, but the significance of this will be impacted

generation after generation.

People will look back on this. People will study this. People will judge us.

They will judge our decisions. They will judge our strength. They will find quotes that politicians say that leaders say and those

quotes will be put on covers of books forever and that's a really cool thing that's a that's an amazing thing

that we're living in such a time that will be always remembered now it doesn't
