00:00Jelly Roll. I'm Jeff, that's Justin, and we're at the CMAs in Jelly. This is really, really cool.

00:06Dude, listen. The 57th annual CMAs in Jelly Roll, of all people, was the most nominated film artist.

00:16If Alien Invasion's coming, this was in the Bible or something, wasn't it?

00:20Let me tell you right now, my job is so much more fun and easier.

00:24All I said was, this is great, and Jelly, you could just take the stage.

00:27I'm excited, Jeff. I'm excited.

00:29And you should be, because you deserve the love that you're getting, because of your vocals, your love.

00:35People speak so highly of your songwriting and your love for the industry.

00:39That goes a long way, behind the scenes of the music.

00:41Thank you, man. Thank you. I love it, dude. I love this stuff. I love people. I love writing songs. I love singing it.

00:48I feel like I've never worked a day in my life. I'm having the time of my life out here.

00:52I'm going in tomorrow night, walking the red carpet, just Mr. Clean Fresh.

00:57Yeah, what are we wearing tomorrow night? Because you already commented on my $7 Walmart shirt.

01:00It's fresh. It looks good, dude. You look good, Justin. God, embrace it, big guy.

01:06I am.

01:06You know what? Most fat people smell and don't dress well.

01:09I think I smell good.

01:10You smell good and you dress well.

01:13I'm wearing cannabis.

01:14Thank you. All right.

01:15Let it be known that I was just going to talk with Jelly, because we only have a couple minutes with each artist.

01:20And Jelly said, no, Justin, you got that fat boy swag. Get in here.

01:24That's exactly what I said.

01:25We're both melting here, so I feel like we bombed on that.

01:28It is cooking.

01:30We're popping popcorn back here.

01:32We do have something in common. I met my wife in Las Vegas.

01:35Really?

01:35I lived in Vegas for five years, did Country Radio with Coyote Country.

01:39Now I'm an X-TU in Philly, but I'm back every single year for NFR and all the fun.

01:43So Vegas is where my in-laws are.

01:45My little baby girl is actually there right now with my wife.

01:48So Vegas is home to me.

01:49It's home to me, man.

01:50My wife grew up there, went to Las Vegas high.

01:53No way.

01:53Yeah, absolutely.

01:54My wife and I have a house there now to this day.

01:56Yeah, I know.

01:57So it's our second home.

01:58I'll be there very soon.

02:00I won't say when.

02:01I don't want to tell too many people.

02:03Well, no, it'll find you because you don't have a phone now, right?

02:05No phone for the rest of the year, right?

02:06Well, I picked one up for the week.

02:08Well, that's because of CMA Awards.

02:10All right, understandable.

02:11No phone for the year.

02:11Yeah, how does it feel to like, that's like an appendage.

02:14That's like a limb for some people.

02:16It's incredible.

02:16For me too.

02:16Somebody told me that, I took this, I stole this from Ed Sheeran.

02:19Somebody said Ed Sheeran doesn't do a phone and he carries a laptop.

02:22Yeah.

02:23And he treats it like a business kind of.

02:24He'll check his emails in the morning or at night at a certain time and just whatever it

02:28is, you know, hit people in advance.

02:30Of course, he's got an assistant in management and stuff.

02:32Right.

02:32It's like he doesn't personally carry a phone.

02:33I envy you for doing the no phone thing.

02:36I wish I could do it.

02:36Never been more in the moment, dude.

02:38It's incredible.
