One of the reasons I wanted to cover the murders of actor, Michael Boone, and hotel porter William Dalziel is that, like me, some of you will be surprised at when they happened. As it turns out, the crackdown on gay men using indecency laws meant gay men were arrested, and the signal to the homophobes was that it was hunting season. In 1990, the lives of lesbians and gays, not to mention trans and gender nonconforming people, were under assault. Section 28, a cynical bit of anti-gay legislation hung a shadow over the well-being of queer folks. In researching these cases, one of the sad realities is that there are men and women whose lives were brutally ended, and no one will ever know who killed them. By listening and sharing these stories, you are joining me and a growing group of people who know a little bit more than you did before, and you're sharing these stories, and for that, I am grateful.

Even when we see uncertainty and injustice all around us, can we navigate our life with grace and resilience?Daigan Gaither emphasizes that our suffering and confusion are not barriers to practice but the very ground of it.He reflects on how to stay grounded and compassionate during turbulent and overwhelming times, drawing from his personal experiences and Buddhist teachings. He reminds us that practice doesn't mean escaping chaos—it means being present with it. By noticing our feelings, turning toward discomfort, and showing up honestly, we can respond with more wisdom and care. Daigan encourages us to drop perfectionism and meet ourselves with kindness, because showing up—even imperfectly—is the practice.He offers practical and heartfelt suggestions for practicing in challenging times:Pause and breathe – Come back to your body and breath, especially when overwhelmed.Name what's happening – Acknowledge your thoughts and feelings without judgment.Stay connected – Practice in community and reach out to others for support.Lean into the precepts – Use Buddhist ethical guidelines as a compass, not a rulebook.Embrace imperfection – The world is messy, and so are we; we can still show up with love.Ultimately, Daigan's message is one of hope: he invites us to meet chaos not with avoidance or despair, but with curiosity, compassion, and presence. ______________Rev. Daigan Gaither (he/him) began Buddhist practice in 1995 in the Vipassana (Insight) tradition, then began studying Zen in 2003.

Daigan speaks internationally on a variety of topics particularly around gender, sexuality, social justice, and their intersections with the Dharma. He also sits or has sat on a number of boards and committees that serve community needs and further social justice causes.

Sales leadership is full of hidden pitfalls that can derail even the most experienced managers. In this episode, Kevin Gaither—former ZipRecruiter sales leader, CRO of Inside Sales Expert, and author of It Happened on the Sales Floor—pulls back the curtain on the most common mistakes sales managers make. He challenges the myth that you can be friends with your reps, shares the six must-have traits for every sales hire, and explains why most coaching efforts fall flat. If you're a CRO or frontline sales leader, this conversation will change how you think about hiring, coaching, and managing your team.Kevin's straight-shooting approach delivers hard-earned lessons from building and scaling high-growth sales teams. We cover why many first-time managers fail, how to identify coachable reps, and the key to developing a sales culture that breeds success. Whether you're struggling with underperforming reps, overwhelmed managers, or a lack of accountability, this episode offers actionable strategies to avoid costly leadership missteps and build a team that consistently wins.Top Takeaways:You Can't Be Friends with Your Sales Reps – Building personal friendships with your team creates favoritism risks, weakens accountability, and can backfire when tough decisions need to be made.Hire for Six Non-Negotiable Traits – Every great sales hire must have need for achievement, competitiveness, optimism, coachability, continual learning, and organizational skills—if they're missing even one, don't hire them.Coaching Is More Than Just Deal Reviews – Most managers only coach around pipeline and forecasting, but real coaching focuses on skill development and long-term rep growth.First-Time Managers Fail Without Proper Training – Many sales leaders assume they can manage just because they were top reps, but without structured training, they struggle to develop their teams effectively.A Strong Hiring Process Is the #1 Predictor of Sales Success – The best sales strategy in the world won't work if you put the wrong people in the seats—hiring is the most critical leadership skill.Reps Don't Change Just Because You Want Them To – Without consistent coaching, accountability, and reinforcement, reps will default to old habits, no matter how much you tell them to improve.Perception Is Reality in Sales Leadership – Even if you treat your team fairly, if others perceive favoritism or inconsistency, it will erode trust and team cohesion.Managers Need a Playbook, Not Just Experience – Experienced managers still need structure and frameworks to be effective; winging it leads to inconsistent coaching and missed opportunities for rep development.Ways to Tune In:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Yb1wPzUxyrfR0Dx35ym1A Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coach2scale-how-modern-leaders-build-a-coaching-culture/id1699901434 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy50cmFuc2lzdG9yLmZtL2NvYWNoMnNjYWxlLWhvdy1tb2Rlcm4tbGVhZGVycy1idWlsZC1hLWNvYWNoaW5nLWN1bHR1cmU Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fd188af6-7c17-4b2e-a0b2-196ecd6fdf77 Podchaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/coach2scale-how-modern-leaders-5419703 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Coach2Scale CoachEm™ is the first Coaching Execution Platform that integrates deep learning technology to proactively analyze patterns, highlight the "why" behind the data with root causes, and identify the actions that will ultimately improve business results going forward.

No Gospel artist has had more of a seismic impact on Christian music over the last 100 years than Bill Gaither. Along with Gloria, his wife of more than 62 years, the Gaithers have left an indelible mark, writing more than 700 songs, many of which have become staples of Sunday morning praise and worship across the world.With songs like “He Touched Me”, “Because He Lives”, and “The King is Coming”, just to name a few of the highly recognizable standards they have written and recorded, there is little doubt why this Gospel Music Hall of Famer was named Christian Songwriter of the Century by ASCAP more than 20 years ago.Now, as Gaither settles into his seventh decade in Christian music, he is launching a new television program on TBN that is based on an old, yet highly popular idea. It's called “Gaither Gospel Hour” and has just started airing on Saturday nights at 8pm, on TBN.Gaither joins us to talk about the songwriting process that has propelled him to write so many profound staples of Christian music and whether his approach is any different than it was when he started out. Listen as the venerable music legend shares about his new television series, "Gaither Gospel Hour" and what he sees for the future of Gaither Music.

How can we become truly present and engage with each moment we experience?In both interpersonal relationships and self-reflection, Daigan Gaither advocates for an open, curious approach where we allow things to be as they are, rather than forcing them to fit preconceived notions. This approach, he suggests, fosters deeper connection and understanding with ourselves and others, as well as with the world around us.Daigan explains that we often misinterpret our emotions by labeling them (e.g., calling a physical sensation "anxiety") and then react to those labels instead of the actual experience. This creates layers of stories and emotions, leading us further from the original feeling.He encourages us to stay curious about our experience, letting go of certainty and rigid identities, and allowing the experience to tell us what it is. By doing so, we avoid creating fixed identities or stories about ourselves and our emotions, which can lead to suffering.______________ Rev.

“Everyone has a metaphysical theory, whether or not he or she is aware of it or even knows what metaphysics is. A person's metaphysical theory determines to a significant extent how that person experiences the world.”The thoughts and the images we hold in mind are creative; they shape divine substance and energy into manifestation. We exercise our imagination wisely by focusing on our heart's desires as if steering toward a compass point. We can use our imagination to help bring about success, healing, and the best outcomes. On this episode, Darrell and Ed broaden our understanding of metaphysics with guest Reverend Jim Gaither, author of “What Is Metaphysics?” . Today, during the second segment, Jim opens our minds to new inspiration with today's reading, “Renewed”. Join the Patreon Community: www.Patreon.com/funniestthing Reading by Joyce Kramer I OPEN THE DOOR OF MY MIND TO GREATER UNDERSTANDING, DEEPER INSIGHT, AND NEW INSPIRATION. Do you have an open mind? Or are you stuck in outdated mental and emotional patterns? Life moves onward and upward, and we must move with it. If we haven't changed our thoughts and feelings in the last year, we are making life unnecessarily difficult. Growth in understanding ourselves is essential to enjoying a more effective, Christ-like life, just as physical growth is necessary for a baby to mature into an adult. Keep an open mind. Be willing to consider and examine fresh concepts. Do things in a different way. Try something new each day. Willingness to learn will assure you of growth, because God can speak to you through your open mind. The Spirit of God will inspire you, guide you, and fill your life with good. Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. (Ephesians 4:23) Writing by Rev Jim Gaither: I use my imagination wisely and focus on success. I use the power of imagination to bring ideas into being and to visualize answered prayers. When an inspired idea comes to me that I would like to create in my life, I use my mind to imagine what it would look like, how it would feel to achieve it, and the steps I will take to bring it about. I infuse my images with color, sound, aroma, and even taste. I see myself having achieved my goal. The thoughts and the images I hold in mind are creative; they shape divine substance and energy into manifestation. I exercise my imagination wisely by focusing on my heart's desires as if steering toward a compass point. I use my imagination to help bring about success, healing, and the best outcomes.

My guest today is Jeff Allen who has been a working comedian for five decades, and his work has been featured on America's Got Talent, Dry Bar Comedy, HBO, Comedy Central, and even on TBN and CBN. He can be heard regularly on SiriusXM's comedy channels, as well as Pandora and Spotify. His videos have surpassed 400 million views on Facebook, YouTube and other digital media. Many of you may have seen him perform at some of the Gaither's Praise Gatherings too. With his new book and his tour ARE WE THERE YET?, Jeff Allen drives home the humor of everyday family life, the ups and downs of marriage, the challenge of raising children, the bliss of the empty nest, and the joys of being a grandparent. Ladies and gentlemen, for years, one of the funniest men in America was crying on the inside, Jeff Allen was a comedian with the lead role in a tragedy. Jeff fell into substance abuse at an early age, and his problems didn't magically go away when he got married. In fact, with the arrival of two children, they intensified. The sense that his life was meaningless made his family life as dark and biting as his comedy. But in his darkest moment, an unlikely encounter with the gloomiest book of the Bible set him on the path to salvation. The line of Ecclesiastes, “Meaningless, meaningless, all in life is meaningless” - resonated with him. So he kept reading, and soon found that Jesus wasn't a religion, but He was Savior who loved him right where he was at. And many times that's at the bottom so the only direction you can look is up. If you have struggled to find meaning in your life, this book is for you. With his trademark humor and unflinching honesty, Jeff will point you to the only One who can answer the question, “Are we there yet?” So I end with one of the most famous prayers ever written. God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. #comedy #faith #inspiration #newbook #comedytour #substanceabuse #marriage #lifelessons #humor #comedian

So thank you for being patient with our crazy schedules and hanging out with us today. Tanya (01:22.542) We really have so much to talk about today. So here we go. Tanya (01:33.996) I'm not sure if you noticed our music didn't upload in our last podcast, so there was just awkward silences abounding. Jasa (01:42.257) Well, I'm glad we've learned to be comfortable with awkward silence, because we hear it, we hear the silence every week. Tanya (01:48.79) Right, yes, and it is a little bit awkward, but you know, what I want to say to you is welcome home from your journey. Jasa (01:57.031) Thank you, was an amazing journey, still reeling, trying to catch up on sleep because it was a busy, cruise. But you know, I said to Cliff, it's kind of like working on the dairy farm, especially during hay season. We just worked all day every day and just practically fell into bed, but it was just fulfilling, satisfying work. And you know, to see the joy on all 2 ,000 faces of the passengers. that had paid to be on a Gaither cruise and to see their enthusiasm and their excitement. And so many of them, it's a once in a lifetime trip. They have saved for this, they have planned for this, this is the last thing they're ever going to do, a big trip. First time seeing Alaska, first time seeing the Gaithers live. It was great. It was absolutely phenomenal. Look at my Sandy Patty cap. Tanya (02:49.634) Your Sandy Patty cap is phenomenal. Yeah, the first thing I noticed was that you had that on. Jasa (02:55.679) It is adorable. So we've sold out because they were such a hit, but I think we're getting more. Mm -hmm. Cause you need one. I need you to have one. Mm -hmm. -huh. It is. It is. Tanya (03:01.1) Really? Okay. Well, you need to put my name down. Yeah, I do need one. Well, first of all, they're cute. They're black and white. That's my colors. That's my whole aesthetic is black and white. And they're just they're just pretty. So yeah, I'll I will wear Sandy Patty merch any old day of the week. I would love that. Yeah. So so a lot has happened while you've been gone friend. I want to hear all about you though first. I just want to Jasa (03:15.889) Mm -hmm. Jasa (03:23.739) I want you to because I'm telling you I've already started telling you stories this morning and you were like save it for the podcast Because not only I mean we had this huge cruise which was huge huger than huge and then had this party last night that was incredible and you know before I went on the cruise I flew into Virginia for a few days and Felt I mean there's I feel how am I trying to say this? There's nowhere else that I feel more love than with my grandkids Nobody is that excited about me coming. And so the joy of my heart, my heart is still soaring from that. I just cannot get over it. Like, they're to the point now that it's like, Lovey, sit by me. Lovey, sit by me. And just super, super sweet. Lovey, I want to show you something. It was so, so sweet. So anyway, I say all that to say start first. Because I barely know. Tanya (04:19.042) Well, I mean, I hate to start first. I hate to start first. Well. Jasa (04:21.883) barely know what you've done. I had so little time on the cruise and I missed you. I would just send you the text going, I missed you. What am I missing? Tanya (04:29.966) I'm so busy, I can't talk, I miss you. Well, what I was also gonna talk to you about is you got caught up in trying to get to Virginia and then flights being canceled and then Cliff, yeah. And then, yeah. Jasa (04:40.25) Yes! If my husband was not magical when it comes to flights, wouldn't have gotten to go. But you know, with that IT thing that affected Delta the most, like, I'm just glad he knew a workaround. Like he called him and said, I need a workaround. This is important that she gets there. And so he got me there. But there are people have horror stories of missing. Well, mean, Point of Grace just told me yesterday they were in Michigan and had to be in North Carolina and they delaying, delaying, ended up canceling their flight. They had to get on a different airline, fly to Nashville, rent a car, drive to Asheville. The show started at 730. They got there at 8 .05. They had to get on stage in their travel clothes by 8 .15 and everybody just went with it. And I was telling them, you know what, as an audience member, we love being a part of something like that. Tanya (05:19.575) No. Jasa (05:37.915) Their flight was canceled. They're driving in. And so they just got up there in their travel clothes and it was just a ball. But it's happening all over the country, all over the world. Tanya (05:47.98) Wow, what a story. I didn't know that happened to Point of Grace. They're just such professionals. Jasa (05:50.949) Yeah, well that was just yesterday. Yeah, it just happened like they got home from Asheville yesterday. So it was the day before yesterday that they were in Michigan trying to get to North Carolina and then what am I asked? Tanya (06:04.802) Yeah, so there's this new kind of a thing on social media. I don't know if you've seen it yet where people are saying, if I can't drive there, I won't go there. And I'm not opposed to that. Not that... Jasa (06:12.485) Mmm. Jasa (06:16.027) I think you've been saying that for a really long time. You started that. Yeah, you started that before it was cool. So if it's trending, it's only because you started Tanya (06:18.83) What, 30 years? Tanya (06:25.216) It's basically the Tanya movement. If you, if I can't drive Jasa (06:27.437) It is the team. Hashtag me too. Tanya (06:32.578) And I'm fine to stay the night and then drive some more and then stay the night and then drive some more and enjoy things along the way. you know, so, I mean, that doesn't always work if you're going overseas or like say to Alaska, but anyway, it works. Jasa (06:36.667) Yeah. a great plan. Jasa (06:46.213) Right. Yeah. It works for you. Tanya (06:48.928) I say that, but you know Shawn drove to Alaska. Jasa (06:52.517) Did he? did, what did he drive up there for? Tanya (06:53.27) Yeah, yeah, he talked to Alaska So it turned out to be a life -changing experience. He went with a guy by the last name of Prophet. I don't even remember all the details. I'll tell you when it was. It was when Josh was in the hospital in Little Rock having his appendectomy. Shawn got a phone call from a friend, and he was like, would you like to join us on this Alaskan adventure? Jasa (07:14.947) He was up, he was already gone. Tanya (07:27.372) We are being sponsored by, they were doing a documentary, so we were being sponsored by this major television station and this documentarist, and we're driving this one of a kind land cruiser that in this, yeah. So this land cruiser has made it all over the world, being driven by a lot of different people, but mostly by this one particular family in Utah. Jasa (07:40.987) knew it had to do with the Land Cruiser. I just couldn't remember the details. Tanya (07:55.466) Anyway, Sean said, bet, I'll go in a heartbeat. So Josh went out of the hospital at midnight because you know, they keep you until your insurance runs out. And then they're like, may the odds be ever in your favor. Yeah. So I said, will sleep in a hotel next door. I'm not going any further. Like my little kid just had an appendectomy. So we stayed in a hospital right next door. We got up the next morning. Josh was feeling just fine. He was bouncing back. Sean stopped at Jasa (08:04.424) huh. See you. Peace out dude. Tanya (08:22.528) some sort of an outdoor store because we didn't have a lot of them way back in the olden days. He got everything he needed because they were living out of the Land Cruiser. They weren't doing hotels. So he got everything that he would need to survive in, I don't know, what is it called? The Alaskan Tundra? What's it even called? Jasa (08:33.508) Whoa. Jasa (08:42.577) don't know, but everything Sean needs would fit in a travel size case. All he needs is the essentials. Remember when he forgot his comb? And then he used something else for a comb? What did he use? A fork? Tanya (08:53.134) What did he use? I forgot. Jasa (08:59.503) We're talking marine survivalists here. It does not take much for Sean Smith to travel. But you know what? You balance the two of you out, so. Tanya (09:05.472) It doesn't. Right? Clearly. Yeah, clearly. He can just keep a go bag in the back of his car and he can go anywhere at any time. Always ready to go. And I'm like, but I need some notice, sir. I can't do that. I have some things to plan out. Sorry. I'm, I'm carrying what I'm calling my smoker's cough. It's still my lingering COVID cough. And Sean said, where is it in Jasa (09:09.959) Clearly. Jasa (09:20.283) SIR Jasa (09:30.032) huh. Tanya (09:32.696) throat or in your lungs. And I'm like, hopefully in my throat, so. Jasa (09:35.675) Yeah, hopefully. Let me ask one other thing. What did this have to do with Sean and Josh going to Utah? Wasn't that a Toyota thing? Tanya (09:45.174) So they met, Sean became really good friends with these men. You know, when you sleep together in a Land Cruiser. I think there was a cameraman. Jasa (09:48.517) Right, that's what I thought. Right. Was it just the two of them in the Land Cruiser? hoping. Tanya (09:59.694) So it was either three or four people. Jasa (10:02.545) my word. Tanya (10:03.842) Yeah, I they would sleep in the middle like they would set up little things to make sure the bear didn't come after them They they bathed in the hot springs, you know They did all the Alaskan things and then you know There was a documentarian who like produced the the video it pretty cool stuff. Honestly pretty cool stuff You know, I haven't thought listen I haven't thought about it until this very moment. So I have no clue but I will get that information to you Yeah, it Jasa (10:09.661) wow. Jasa (10:19.397) Where can we say this? Have you ever seen it? Jasa (10:28.667) I would love to see that. That is fascinating. Tanya (10:32.172) So he became friends with these guys, they were like, a couple years later when Josh got older, well, they were always saying, come visit us, come visit us. So then they started saying, hey, come visit us. We'll go on this expedition. We'll go on this ride. We'll go on this. We'll go on that. And then Sean became introduced to family after family. And so now it's just part of our extended Utah family. Jasa (10:50.171) Mm yeah, that's so cool. I love that. So rugged. Tanya (10:54.826) and New Mexico family. Do you remember that time that we had, which is why I don't go. Do you remember that time that we had COVID and I was stuck in Vegas and we drove home because, Jasa (11:04.535) huh. Yeah. 100 % Tanya (11:07.96) So we had to come through New Mexico. spent the night there, because you have to stop at some point. And I remember walking in, and the lady at the front desk was like, she just held her hands out. And I was like, can I get a room? And she was like, I guess. And I was like, OK, do you have a room? And she's like, I don't know. Nobody knew what was happening. So we Jasa (11:28.571) Well, and I was home because I had it. And I was, remember I was patient zero in Pope County and people were talking about me on Facebook, but they didn't know it was me. They're like, we've heard somebody has COVID and we demand to know where she works. Because I got it from Sandy. Well, Sandy and I got it together. We all got it because, and it all started, this woman came in coughing at the concert. We all, we all have her face in our minds. Tanya (11:46.648) You did! Tanya (11:50.232) Mm -hmm. Jasa (11:56.817) to this day, but we all ended up with COVID and didn't even know what it was. So I'm home and you're the one traveling with COVID. So we're trying to get you home and we don't know the rules. I mean, at least I was home and we did not know the rules. It was, what a time, what a time for you to be gone. Tanya (12:11.726) Sweet Sandy Patty. She told me that story. During your wedding, we were talking about the whole COVID thing. And she said to me, she told me this story and she said this, the sweet lady came up to her and she was like, snot was coming out of her nose. She was sweating. She was feverish. And she was coughing, like, you know, hacking. And then she's like, I just had to come see you, Sandy. Like she came and like went through the line afterwards to Jasa (12:40.295) She did, she did. Tanya (12:41.784) to like hug her and Sandy was like, and yeah, that was too late by then. It was too late. Jasa (12:47.787) But we did not, at the time we did not really know.

Like it really, that was some weekend. Yeah, and then you're trying to come home. Tanya (12:51.128) Nobody knew COVID. Tanya (13:01.262) I remember somebody from Russellville, I was talking to weeks later, if not months later, and I said, yeah, JSA, I ratted you out is what I did. Because back then it took six weeks to find out if you were positive or not. And so, that's right. Because know, such organization when the COVID hits. But okay, so maybe it was months later.

Jasa (13:39.555) Yeah, she was the one. Tanya (13:40.558) Yeah, you're both famous and infamous, my dear, for bringing COVID Jasa (13:45.958) Well, and the funniest thing about it is we, had gotten, I was hosting the youth group at my house and I mean, it just couldn't have been anywhere. So I'd cooked fettuccine Alfredo for the entire youth group. Everyone came over. We had gotten a new couch. Everybody was wanting to try out the new couch. So we're all snuggled up together and everybody knew I had been with Sandy because everybody's like, tell us about being with Sandy. And I was telling everybody and stuff. then, that night after everyone leaves, Cliff texted me and was like, Sandy has COVID and then it was on Instagram. So then everybody knew. And so then everybody's like, no, we're going to get tested because of Jason. All night for me to be cooking and hosting and snuggling. Yeah. So it's sent. Yeah. I really, I was a super spreader for sure. Didn't know. I thought it was still in China. I had no idea it made its way across Tanya (14:29.634) Right! Yes! Jasa (14:43.461) way to America, I had no idea Tanya (14:46.102) Okay, that's hilarious. I don't know why we were talking about that. because when we stopped in New Mexico, some of those friends, family, lived there, and Sean said, we're coming through New Mexico, and they were like, we got you, we got you. We're gonna take you to eat where we know that it's open and you can go eat. So they took care of us in New Mexico, and then we ended up making it home. But I don't know why we got off on that subject, but that's maybe. Jasa (15:13.947) Because of the Land Cruiser family. Your extended family. Your extended cruising family. Tanya (15:16.078) because the Land Cruiser family. And I was sitting in an Airbnb in Las Vegas by myself because we had rented it for 12 people. Nobody showed up but Sean and I. This huge mansion of a home which is kind of scary when you're by yourself. And then, you know, I had done my shopping, whatever. And then Sean was at a meeting and I was watching like all these planes landing and they're like, we're not letting these people off. They've been on there for 12 hours. We think someone on there is infected. And I thought, Jasa (15:25.411) I remember, I remember this. Jasa (15:42.587) my word. That's terrifying. Tanya (15:45.678) I'm not getting on a plane. I'm not getting on a plane and someone say, we're just going to have to circle for the end of time. And then once we land, you're going to need to stay on here for about four to six business weeks. I'm not doing that. So we rented a vehicle, the last vehicle. People were getting out of Dodge is what they were doing when they were in Vegas. And you knew it was bad when they shut down the buffets. Jasa (15:47.515) Mm -mm. Jasa (16:11.503) Absolutely. Tanya (16:13.836) I think they just brought those back. don't know. Hopefully there's some sort of sneeze guard situation, but anyway. Okay, so welcome home. Jasa (16:16.57) Yeah. Jasa (16:22.417) Thank you, thank you, I'm glad to be home for a few days. Tanya (16:25.986) Well, while you were gone, I attended the most beautiful wedding. Jasa (16:31.035) I would love to have seen that girl get married. I bet she looked stunning. Tell everything. Tanya (16:38.19) She was stunning her dress. It was an off the shoulder draping situation. And then she had a beaded, it was just the most gorgeous beaded clip -in veil that went the length to the floor. And then her long, beautiful auburn hair. It was very vintage, very elegant. I kept saying the word elegant. This entire thing is just so elegant. It was extremely Jasa (16:54.011) Really? That's so vintage. Tanya (17:08.15) intimate and personal, know, not a lot of people were there. And it was just so beautiful. They read their vows to each other. They each had a little notebook. know, Mariah would like turn the page and read and turn the page. It was funny. It was sentimental. It was meaningful. It was personalized. Everything there was, it just reflected them so beautifully. And then we, we went the little chat of the little reception area which is new because you had your wedding shower in this chapel a wedding shower in this Jasa (17:42.339) I did. One of the best days of my life. Thank you, Suzanne Gaitley and Layton for hosting the shower and then the people that came and the prayers that were prayed and the gifts that were given and the hugs that were given. It was such, I mean, I'm still floating from that. I would say that is one of the top five best days of my life. Tanya (17:48.019) Mm -hmm. Tanya (18:10.06) I would agree. was there. Jennifer and I were there. It was so spectacular. Well, since that time they've added on a reception hall, which is small, quaint, beautiful. The wedding planner did a beautiful job, keeping everything going. Sorry with the phlegm. I'm Jasa (18:11.94) And now, you are. Jasa (18:29.799) Well and it's called Gately Heals, Gately Gardens. Yes, because Crystal Malloy, they're building it themselves. Josh built it themselves. She grows the flowers. It's a real turnkey wedding venue. So yes, we've been friends with Crystal and Josh for a very long time and she took the engagement, surprise engagement pictures for Layton and Hunter. and then she did our wedding photography. So she has had a lot of experience in weddings and it was just, she, they are the perfect couple to do this. And so I'm thrilled every time I see a wedding there and that they're growing and everything. So, I mean, can you believe she grows her own flowers for it? Is anything more turnkey than that? Tanya (19:16.566) Absolutely not. In fact, the flowers were so beautiful. I took a video of the venue for you and Jen and I sent it to both of you, right? Didn't I send it to you guys? And those lime light hydrangeas, hydrangeas. I don't know which part I'm supposed to say a short A or a long A, but they're everywhere all over Northwest Arkansas. And then she had the most beautiful ones I've ever seen. So if it ever stops being as hot as the underbelly of hell itself, I am going to go to and buy some of those and I'm going to just drown my house in lime light hydrangeas. They're beautiful. Jasa (19:52.441) I'm glad that you love them so much. Tanya (19:56.11) But so besides the wedding being meaningful and precious and kind and beautifully done, Mariah and Chance had a newspaper, like a newspaper. And it was rolled and it was wrapped in this beautiful gold something or another at everybody's place. And while they were having pictures, we could look through this. And the front was like the cover was them. Jasa (20:24.793) I Tanya (20:26.124) Like they were the main story. And then inside was all these little tidbits and facts about them. And there was even a crossword puzzle, which was answers for the day's events. Like what was the pastor's name? And it was so creative. So we enjoyed looking at that. They had little pens for everyone, and they were monogrammed with their name. No detail was left untouched. Here's what I thought was really, really neat. Jasa (20:39.557) Goodness, that is so unique. Tanya (20:54.274) Mariah did a dance with her father, of course, with Michael. But they didn't play the entire dance because Mariah was like, unless you're doing, you know, like a dance dance, that's a long time for people to watch you dance. So they just took a snippet of the song and that ended the dance. And then later on her and Chance did the same thing. Or maybe I have that reversed. But anyway, both times it was just a small snippet of the song so we could see them and watch them dance. I thought that was a brilliant idea. Jasa (21:05.645) I agree. Jasa (21:24.485) That is a brilliant idea. Tanya (21:26.35) Yeah, because unless you have some sort of choreographed, well thought out, you know, swing dance, 60 seconds is enough. 90 seconds is enough. Jasa (21:36.219) Well, think Shep and I have already decided what we're going to dance to when he gets married. You know, my little 17 year old, if he ever gets married, is because I was with someone the other day that said that her husband and his mom started out dancing slowly and then they ended up doing the Napoleon Dynamite dance. And I'm like, that's a dance I can do because I can't do many dances. But anyway, Shep, he was like, yes, that's it. That's what we're going to do. Tanya (21:54.914) There we go. See? Tanya (22:04.246) Okay. Well, I look forward to being a part of that. I will. Don't... Don't worry. Jasa (22:06.257) So remind me. Remind, remind Shep and I. Many moons from now. When my baby gets married. Tanya (22:15.766) So that was definitely a highlight and then there's other things that have happened, but let me just tell you what's going on in my home right now We are We are basically moving but staying in the same home. Okay? Okay, so people are moving rooms around to make rooms for different things This involved cleaning out Tanya's office closet now that office closet is a walk -in closet Jasa (22:22.426) Okay, I would love to know. Jasa (22:39.899) Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm. Tanya (22:44.718) And I have lived in this home for 10 years. So Josh volunteered Sunday night to start the process, cleaning out the closet. He said, you know, doesn't everything just need to come out of the closet? I was like, yes, rule one of organi - organi what am I trying to say? Organizing? Thank you. Everything comes out. He said, where do want me to put it? So I'm kind of like fixing dinner and stuff. I said, you can put it on the dining room table. Jasa (23:04.217) Organization. Tanya (23:13.996) So he and Sean unloaded, listen, it took the entire dining room table, it's stacked five deep, all the square footage around the dining room table. I did not know one could put so much stuff in an office closet. And here's what I've learned. I am so Gen X. I have so much paper, paper, paper out the wazoo paper. I have filler paper, college paper, notebook paper, spiral bound paper. I have small notepad paper, graph paper. Jasa (23:40.241) graph paper, journals. Tanya (23:43.474) graphic paper, journals that have never been open, tons of copy paper cardstock, colored cardstock. Jasa (23:46.641) Copy paper. Colored paper. construction paper. Tanya (23:55.126) And you know what goes with paper? Staplers. Paper clips. Three hole punches. Jasa (23:59.02) Well, okay, Gen X plus homeschool mom forever and ever and ever and it's like paper was our world. We lived in a paper world. We truly did. So it doesn't surprise me one bit. I will say it did surprise me that you could fit all of that in a closet. You sent me a picture of your dining room table and I was like, my word and what did I suggest? I was like, you may need to just rent Tanya (24:08.674) Yes! Tanya (24:13.068) You know what we live in now? Jasa (24:28.232) a storage. What is it? We call it a storage. Yeah, a storage unit. Tanya (24:30.944) A unit. A storage unit. Yes. It was a brilliant idea. Jordan came over last night because I said, I might be a little overwhelmed with decision making because my ADHD is strong with this one. And so she came over last night and looked around and I said, what do I do with this? And she said, it all has to go. And I said, okay, go where? And she said, goodwill. Goodbye. Jasa (24:41.744) Might Jasa (24:57.702) my. Goodbye. my. Tanya (25:03.118) And I was like, but I have three different three -hole punches. That's correct, Mom, and you don't need even one. So I need you to let it go. So she said I'm going to have to make some hard decisions. So I sat with it. I thought about it. I did 10 things to avoid the thing because, like I said, the ADHD is strong. I went and installed a wireless hub in my garage in order to avoid the dining room table. Jasa (25:10.117) Right. Jasa (25:31.729) What's a wireless hub? Tanya (25:33.758) well, I have one garage door that's not attached to my other garage door. They're separate. One's a two car, one's a one car. And now I can control them both from my phone. Jasa (25:45.787) That was worth Tanya (25:47.008) Sure, sure. Those two hours of my time. Josh walked out during this time and he, Josh and I, do projects really well together. But then we also respect when each one wants to do a project alone. So I was on a ladder in the garage with a drill, putting pilot holes in overhead in order to install those little things so that you can screw something in, because it had to go in the ceiling of the garage. I don't know why I had to do this. Well. Yeah, do it cuz that's something else to do But so he walks out halfway through and he says hey Could you use some help over there? And I said no, I don't need any help Thank you because once again when you're avoiding doing something by doing something else You don't want someone to help you because they might make it go faster and Then you got to do the thing. Okay, so he said You don't need my help. Well all the sheetrock dust gone your head might suggest otherwise Jasa (26:18.469) Mm -hmm. Jasa (26:44.419) goodness. Tanya (26:45.536) And I said, all the sheetrock dust in my eyes might suggest that too, but I'm fine. And he said, okay. And then a little bit later, Sean comes out eating a turkey sandwich in one hand and holding a ladder with the other. Jasa (26:59.645) okay. Tanya (27:03.374) Which I said, hey, thanks, but don't help me, okay? So today, the goal after this podcast, is it already 1 .15? Tomorrow, the goal. Tanya (27:17.582) could very well be to finish this project. More to come. But basically, it had to be done. I do realize that I don't need approximately 42 notepads. I do realize that we are in a paperless digital society. So I'm going let it go, is what I'm saying to you. I'm going let it Jasa (27:17.863) long have we been talking? Jasa (27:39.963) Are you gonna take it to Goodwill? Because somebody's gonna love that paper. Tanya (27:44.002) Yeah, I am. I'm taking a lot of the paper to Abigail because she likes to play office. But the rest of it she doesn't want, no one wants. So I will ask a couple people if they want it and if they don't, off it goes. Jasa (27:48.313) That's a great idea. That is a great place. That will bring you joy to give that to her. Jasa (27:58.727) Points. Jasa (28:03.727) I think it's a gold mine for someone. We came across such a gold mine one time, which first of all, you were the one who always, because I had one younger than your youngest, you gave us so much homeschool material. And it just made it so fun for us because if Tanya picked it out, it was gonna be really cool and fun. So that, but then one day we got this email that said, hey, this school has closed down. and they've put all of their stuff in a storage building on Petty Jean Mountain. Do you remember this? Well, we went on a field trip. The kids and I were like, my gosh, how fun would that be? So we jumped in the car, went to Petty Jean Mountain, and we got so much neat stuff. And we got this one huge roll of yellow paper. And do you know, like, in public school, the teacher would have that on a roller. Remember that you would make your Tanya (28:36.514) Kind Tanya (28:59.042) Yeah. Jasa (29:00.795) billboards with and everything. Tanya (29:01.912) That giant craft paper, I know exactly what you're talking about. Jasa (29:05.251) giant craft paper so we got a full roll of that and that that roll of paper changed lives until I think Layton still has it but we would like when someone it was their birthday we would go and like wrap their house with this big yellow paper if someone won a tournament Tanya (29:16.258) No way. Jasa (29:26.213) we would go wrap it with this, like, we, that paper. So everyone, especially at Crosslife, would go that yellow paper because people would come home to their house being wrapped in that yellow paper. So that was difficult for me to get rid of because you know me, I attach memories to things, but you say to Tanya (29:44.152) Do not attach memories to things. Things are things. Things are not people. Yeah. Jasa (29:48.455) Yeah, you say memories are not attached to things, they're attached to people, which has been very helpful to me because, I had to get rid of everything to move here. Like I had to literally just get rid of almost everything to just start over. Everything fit in a 12 foot trailer for, you know, my whole life and Shep's whole life. We just brought in that 12 foot trailer, but letting go of my homeschool stuff. I mean, we're, we just love paper. Tanya (30:17.23) Yeah. Yeah. Jasa (30:17.261) and hole punches and scissors and markers and construction paper. Like it was just, it was our whole life for so long and I have such good memories of Tanya (30:23.106) Yes. Tanya (30:28.906) I am completely stumped as to what I'm going to do. But then if you, if you, right. No, we don't need them. You're not, right. So see, it makes no sense. But nothing says Gen X or more than paper because do you know that there are some businesses that don't even have a printer? Jasa (30:33.989) Here I am trying to get you to give it to me. I'm sitting here going, I'll take all your hoards of paper. But I won't because I can't. I have no room for it. And I have no children to homeschool anymore. Jasa (30:50.918) You're right. Tanya (30:55.15) They may have 500 people and they don't have a printer. Everything is digital. So anyway. Jasa (31:00.699) Well, I was with Edward Jones, you know, before I came here and we were pretty much digital. Tanya (31:06.742) Mm -hmm. Yeah, I've got to get with it. I've got to get into the new world. I've got to do a lot of cleaning out I do think I have a shredder somewhere. So maybe I'll find that and you know what I anyway it's more to come on that but right now I feel upside down I Feel upside down. Thank you. That's in part appreciated. Jasa (31:24.401) Blessings to you. Blessings to you. I know it's difficult, but I know you also can do this, and obviously you have a lot of people willing to help you. They're just not telling you what you want to hear, but they're willing to help you. Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm. Tanya (31:34.284) Yeah, I do. No, or taking it away. They're just telling me what to do with it. Because Jordan said, if you don't get rid of this now, I'm going have to do it when you die. That's what she said. That was her motivational speech. Yeah. Jasa (31:45.396) I think of that often. I do think of that often. That my kids going through my stuff and going, why would she keep this? This is silly. Why would she keep this? I don't want that to happen. I don't want to be looked at as silly when I'm gone. Tanya (31:55.446) I don't either and I, yeah. Right, right. Or people will say that darn woman never threw anything away. So I looked at it Sunday night and I thought this is the way I die. And then I looked at it Monday and thought not today. I looked at it Tuesday, not today Satan, looked at it Tuesday and thought I'm gonna get a trash bag and make a few decisions. And by Tuesday night after Jordan left I Jasa (32:04.109) Exactly. Jasa (32:14.063) Not today, Satan. Jasa (32:22.33) Mm -hmm. Tanya (32:25.11) I had come to terms with the fact that it's all gonna go. And I'm not sad about it anymore. In fact, I feel excited. So anyway, ADHD, that's the thing. It's a blessing, it's a curse. Jasa (32:43.643) Well, I think you're doing a great job. I don't know who needs to hear this today. I think it's you, Tanya. You're doing a great job. Keep doing what you're doing. Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm. Tanya (32:50.434) Thank you, friend. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. Okay, my week has been, my last two weeks have been a lot more simple than yours, so I am happy to run through them. We went to, yeah, yeah. Jasa (33:03.277) want you to. I'm pulling this fan over because I think my face is starting to glisten. Tanya (33:08.974) I laughed so hard when Cliff said to you about some topic, hey, I think I've got this down to 65. And you were like, degrees on the air conditioner? And he was like, no people. Jasa (33:23.512) Yeah, that was so great! Tanya (33:26.862) Yeah, yeah, it's it's not pleasant. I don't like summer and I'm sorry. I know people love summer. know there are There's a group of odd people out there that love summer. They love heat. They love sun Jasa (33:41.413) do love all of those things. I'm a beach girl, I'm an outdoor girl, and I also don't like wearing, I like tank tops and tank tops. Boy, that's a hard word to say, isn't it? And shorts and flip -flops. Like, I love summer dresses. I love all of that. The only time, I mean, for the most part, I'm just hot at night, and I like it cooler. Other than that, I do. I like summer, and I like tanning, and I like going to the beach, and all of those things. Tanya (33:49.954) Right. It's words. Tanya (34:09.134) Well, I sent Sean and Joshua because I freeze them out at night because I like, you know, I turn it down to 65. If someone said we're OK with 63, I'd be like, really? Because how about 60? 59? So there is a mattress out now that has water running through it. It chills or it heats. And I sent it to Sean and Josh and said, I think I need this. And I think I do. I think I do. Because I get angry. I get, okay, I will. I'm a very easygoing to some degree person, but when I get hot, I get angry. So, mm -hmm. Jasa (34:40.133) Hey, follow up on that. Jasa (34:48.357) Yes you are. Yes. Jasa (34:55.111) Is that kind of like hangry? Instead of hungry angry, it's hot angry? It's hangry. Tanya (34:57.038) Yes! That's what it is! That's probably what that actually means. Yes, I get hot angry. Jasa (35:06.895) Let me ask you this. Before my surgery, I almost ordered a cooling blanket. Have you heard of cooling blankets? I literally was just about to order it and then I thought, well, I love to be cool and then have warm blankets on top of me. I don't think I would like to have a cool blanket on top of me. So I'm going to explore that a little more. So let me know what you if you find out about that as well or just, you know, the water bed. Tanya (35:13.208) What's that? What's the cooling blanket? No! Tanya (35:24.354) Yeah, yeah, yeah, Tanya (35:37.26) The waterbed, yeah. That's the thing that I thought was this could be problematic. This could be problematic if your mattress is filled with water. So, okay. Jasa (35:39.623) They're coming Jasa (35:46.235) We'll just get a warranty. Especially if you're gonna put your electric blanket on top of your water bed. Mm -hmm. You may burn more than your sheets, my friend. Tanya (35:51.907) Mm. Mm -hmm. Okay, so maybe this is just not a good plan. But I need something, is what I'm saying. Jasa (35:57.905) I don't know. Let's explore it. Let's explore it. This could be life changing. Let's explore it. I love the idea of it. Sounds very peaceful. Tanya (36:03.982) Well, do. The week that we went to Mariah's wedding, we had to stay all night in Russellville because it started at 10 in the morning. And we got Jasa (36:11.37) huh. And the dang Darnale Bridge, did you have any trouble getting across it? Tanya (36:15.362) The Darned Dardanelle Bridge is under construction. No, we went right across it. But I thought, I'm not going to miss a wedding because I'm sitting on the opposite side of the Dardanelle Bridge, you know. So I'm not point of grace. People don't wait on me. I am we all four of us. Yes, you actually would have. So all four of us, got hotel rooms and stayed in in in Russellville. OK, so that's Thursday. Then the very next night, Friday night. Jasa (36:24.037) maddening. That would be Jasa (36:28.743) Mariah would have. Mariah would have. Tanya (36:42.55) Shaw needs to go to a retirement party in Harrison, Arkansas, which is, you know, that's another, yeah, opposite end of the state. So we got there, we did that. We ended up booking a room, yeah. Jasa (36:47.757) Opposite end. Jasa (36:54.437) let me ask you. Did - never mind. I thought maybe you drove through Bee Branch and Clinton, but you didn't. You went up through Jasper. Tanya (37:00.718) no, because we came through Little Flock. So we just took Interstate 49 home. We went home. Sean worked most of the day Friday. And then we, he worked all day Friday. What am I saying? And then we left from Little Flock and went to the retirement party in Harrison. So we weren't there as long as we thought we would, we were going to be there. Although we were there for a while. I had booked a room in Harrison because I don't really want to sleep in a Land Cruiser. That's not my style. But, Jasa (37:05.095) you went home. Okay. Jasa (37:30.638) With your essentials kit. Tanya (37:31.694) or Sean's car. yeah. So as we got out kind of early, know, Branson is 26 miles from Harrison. Like it's just right there. And Sean said, OK, I know we're staying in Branson tomorrow night, but go ahead and just cancel this hotel. I don't care. I'll pay for it. It's not much. And let's just get onto Branson. And I said, you betcha. Nope, nope, nope. Couldn't happen. There was no availability. Branson was sold out. Yep. Jasa (37:57.681) Seriously. Well, is everybody just doing the last two raw before school started? Branson's a good place for that. Tanya (38:03.446) Yeah, I think so and lots of groups lots and lots of groups like family reunions family chat list lots of tour buses full of people everywhere So we pull into Branson Saturday morning. It's fine. We so we haven't slept in our own bed Thursday night We didn't sleep in our own bed, but that was Wednesday night didn't sleep in our own bed Friday night Then we slept in a hotel bed again on Saturday night. So I really was missing I was beginning to I was kind of like you Jasa (38:31.267) It's just so funny that you're saying we did not sleep in our own bed for three nights in one week. And I'm just like, I'm happy if I do get in my own bed three nights in one week. Tanya (38:36.024) three nights in one I don't know how you do it. don't. need my... Well, I'm going to tell you what I would probably enjoy. Unpacking once. Which is what you get to do on a cruise. Jasa (38:54.799) Yes, yes. Tanya (38:55.82) But being somewhere different every night, packing and unpacking and that sucks the life right out of all, no more joy left. Jasa (39:03.663) Now I will say, so two weeks ago I had to, knowing the airline situation, I wasn't sure I was gonna get to Virginia and home before I had to be in Seattle. So I had to have everything packed so in case Cliff had to meet me somewhere, he would have my thing. So I went to Virginia and I slept in Truett's bed Tuesday night and Wednesday night. And then I came home and slept on No, Monday night and Tuesday night. And then I came home and slept in my own bed. Thankfully, my flight made it home and then got up and then we fly there and then we stay in a hotel room for two nights. And then we get on the cruise and we stay on the cruise for whatever, seven nights, six nights or seven nights. But I was a little bit, my head was a little spinny with all of that happening because I was trying to pack for just Virginia and then just for Tanya (39:51.79) Yeah, I can imagine. Jasa (39:59.18) know, hotel and just for the cruise or whatever. So, and we know I can't think on that level. Tanya (40:04.012) I mean you kind of need two of everything to do that. You need two of a lot of things to do that. To have an extra bag. Jasa (40:06.543) So then I came home and I've washed all my dirty clothes, but thankfully we get to do laundry on the cruise. And so we get to bring a lot of things home that are already clean. So then I came home and just washed a few things and I haven't really unpacked, but today I'm just going to unpack just to make sure I have everything I need and then pack it back because it's all clean. So, and we're doing the exact same cruise. Tanya (40:30.466) Because you're leaving. Is it the exact same cruise? A Gaither cruise? Jasa (40:34.887) It's the exact same cruise. Well, no, it's not a Gator cruise, but we go to the exact same ports. I'm super excited about this cruise. This is a new one for us, but he is a podcaster and his name is LT. And I did not know who he was, but he has a huge following. Apparently there are 700 people on this cruise, but he's a Marine. And what he did was, Well, I guess I better not tell everything yet. but the Isaacs are singing on the cruise, so that will be fun, but I'm hoping that it's, yeah, I'm just really looking forward to it. That's what I'm saying. I'm really looking forward to it. Yeah. I'm going to listen to him before I go. Cliff has listened to him. So he's like a conservative Christian podcaster. his family talked him into having this podcast. They were like, you have way too much information and has a huge following. So I'm really looking forward to Tanya (41:16.78) Okay. Tanya (41:24.974) Gotcha. Tanya (41:32.878) so they were like, you're talking to us too much. So if you could just talk to the screen. We can relate to that, can't we? Jasa (41:37.799) Right. Yeah. Pretty phenomenal. He's a pretty phenomenal guy. So... Yeah. Tanya (41:46.468) that'll be fun. That'll be really fun. So six nights, seven nights. Jasa (41:52.112) Ummm, well like we're gone longer than that. Ummm, because we have to be there early but yeah, I mean it's a seven day cruise. It's seven day cruise, seven night cruise, I don't know. You know, I live in the moment. Are we going home today? No, we're not going home today. Tanya (42:05.09) I'm curious, is it the same boat? Do you know, have any way of knowing that? So actually you just could have stayed on the boat. Jasa (42:08.539) Yeah, it is. It is the same boat, which is cool when we get to do that. Yeah, we could have. Not really, because another cruise went out and then it comes in and then we get on and go. But a lot of our people do stay on the cruise. Tanya (42:21.454) gotcha. Okay. Or you could have stayed in Alaska. Okay. So many interesting things. Wow. Well, yeah, it is an incredible Jasa (42:28.059) We could have, yeah. Yeah. It's an incredible job that I love so much. So many interesting people. Like I said, work really, really hard, but it's just such satisfying work and I love Tanya (42:44.642) I'm so proud of you. You're just a busy little queen bee and I love it. You're just taking control. My favorite story is that you have to tell some people like, this is not your event. Like you're not the right color card holder to come into this event. And then they like to be like, but I want to. And then you have to tell them no, which, how does that work Jasa (42:57.445) Right. Yeah. Yeah. huh. Jasa (43:06.408) Well, and I will say that some people really appreciate that and some people don't. So usually the people that will push back are the people who do not appreciate the rules. They like to create their own rules. But then I had some people come up to me at the end of the cruise. This one man in particular said this to me. goes, they were getting autographs from the Gaithers and he said, I'd like to get your autograph. And I just laughed and he goes, no, let me tell you why. He said, because you knew the rules. and you enforced them and I appreciate Tanya (43:37.23) See, you are famous. Jasa (43:42.407) Well, to my door people, so the Gaither Cruise, we had 2 ,000 passengers. so interacting with the, so mainly we're taking care of the VIPs. But when I interact with the passengers, we're all assigned to a door that comes into the auditorium. But my, mean, it is a very serious situation on the Gaither Cruise. And a lot of them are, have mobility issues and they have wheelchairs and scooters and canes and walkers and all of this kind of stuff. sweet, enjoyable people. They will line up outside of my door an hour and a half before the show starts because getting good seating is just so important. So there are two different colors because every show we have to do it twice. But then in addition to those two other colors, we have four different priority colors so that everybody gets a chance to go in first and get a good seat. So I have all of these sweet, sweet people lining up outside of my door for an hour and a half. And you know when you're at Disney World and you're in these long lines, they try to make it enjoyable by showing videos and stuff like that. So I try to make it enjoyable for my people and kind of get to know them. And you know, we're all creatures of habit. So whatever door we go in the first night, we want to go in that same door with the same person and sit in the same area. You know, so by the end of the week, like we're all crying singing Friends Are Friends Forever because we've really gotten to know each other this week. And so it's just sweet people. And so we, go up, the first night I went out and I said, hi, welcome to my door. My name is Jasa. Clearly I'm from Boston. They always think that's the thing. Tanya (45:20.398) Well they thought you were the warm -up comedian act. That's what they thought! Jasa (45:24.259) I told them, said, this is my only stage. So this is my stage. So we would sing and like the first night that the priority color was yellow. And I said, yellow is my favorite color in honor of yellow. Let's sing. You are my sunshine. So we sang you are my sunshine. And I videoed it. Everybody's singing. And of course, a lot of people there are like song leaders or singers that have been singing great Gator music their whole life. And so we had some people that really were standouts. and they're singing and they were harmonizing and they were singing louder than other people and they were giving me their credentials and I've been singing Sandy Patty my whole life and I mean I get to hear all of this stuff with all of these people. Lots of people are telling me about how their spouses have died and then they're coming alone and I'm telling you I love it so much. I love those people so much and then another time that I'm interacting Tanya (45:52.483) Tanya (46:15.97) Yeah. Jasa (46:21.003) with the people is they all get an opportunity to meet and greet the stars. So they stand, I had a thousand people in line to meet and greet Bill Gaither, Sandy Patty, Mark Lowry, and the Gaither Vocal Band. And it's so important to them. Some of them were bringing the oldest... Tanya (46:30.573) Whoa. Jasa (46:40.973) material you've ever seen, like when Bill and Gloria were so young and had just started, and these were precious things to them to get to meet, and then they get their picture made. So what we do, Cliff's part of the picture taking group, I work the line. So I go through the line and I tell everybody. Now to make this efficient, you've got to have your book open where you want to sign and you've got to have your camera ready. I said you've got to have your passcode in. I said if you get up there and start trying to remember your passcode they're gonna say next. So have your camera open and they're gonna take your pictures and everything and so I got to walk through this whole line. This was twice I did this a thousand people each day. that I get to walk through and get to ask everybody about their lives and they ask me about their lives. And so that night, that first night I told Cliff, I said, I have never used more words in my whole life. I used 400 million words today. And it was funny, Cliff and I would be around each other, but we didn't get to talk. And I went in one night and I'm like, tell me when you have the head space for me to tell you about my drama today. Tanya (47:46.776) when you have the heads. Jasa (47:49.315) Because we're so, so busy. But it's just a great busy because we know all of the people on the ship, like the entertainment director and the captain and all the people, you know, we know them personally and that is so fun to know them. And then we get to know the VIPs personally because we pick them up at the airport and then we take them to the hotel and then we take them to the ship. So we get to know them on a personal level. And so when I'm standing there, waiting for their luggage to come, which takes longer and longer these days, you know, like we're standing there an hour. I get to know people so much better and it's so fun. And so then like the VIPs will come in and they're like, Jace, have you seen my mama? It's just so Tanya (48:35.053) I would be in trouble there. Okay, but you remember faces. Jasa (48:38.051) You would, but you and Brad Pitt would be, yeah. Well, but you get to know them on a very deeper level when you're with them so much. So it's just so fun. And then our friends Jim and Sharon went with us on the cruise. And I told them, said, no, we're probably not going to see you for the first three days. And we really didn't. But then a little later in the week, we got to do things with them and we got to go. It was the greatest thing because one of the neatest things about Alaska is the salmon. Tanya (48:45.592) That's true. That's very true. Jasa (49:06.683) And can be, and Cliff was there, you know, two weeks before and there were no salmon. They came in the night before we got there this time. So we're standing and you can just see, I could give you, I could write a term paper on salmon. Like it is so fascinating. I mean, that the Lord has done this, but the salmon, they're jumping up in the air and coming down. You know what they're doing when they do Tanya (49:33.07) Is it called spawning? I don't know. What are they doing? Jasa (49:36.559) Maybe, maybe you should help me write this term paper. But they're causing their eggs to fall down lower. That's what they're doing. But they don't know what they're doing. God has just put the instinct in. And so it's just popping like popcorn out there. And we walk up in the, nobody is more fun to watch this with than my friend Sharon because she was just screaming and laughing every time they'd pop up. It was like so fun for her to see that. And so we stopped watching this dammit and just started watching her. Tanya (49:39.534) No. Jasa (50:04.421) because she was so cute about it. Then, then, okay, that was when we were in Sitka. And then we get in Ketchikan, and you can go, there's a river there, and their goal, what they do, what they are born for, is to swim upstream. So you're watching them, and they swim upstream, and then something catches them and carries them all the way And they, but all they know, all they know to do is just swim upstream. And they go up and then they lay their eggs and that's mostly their whole life. But it is just such a fascinating things to see. took, fascinating thing to see. I took pictures and videos that I'm going to send you. But we're just so excited that they got there the night before because Cliff felt so much pressure because Jim and Sharon were going and he just wanted them to have the best. you know, experience ever because sometimes we go to Alaska and it's fog and you can't see the glaciers or anything and if the salmon are not there, I mean it's beautiful whenever you go but I woke up that first morning at the glacier and it was foggy and I just started praying number one for Cliff because I knew how important it was to him that Jim and Sharon see this and I started praying for them. Tanya (50:58.35) OK. Jasa (51:14.241) And thank the Lord, it went away. The weather was beautiful and perfect and we had the best time with them. It was just so great. And I got to be with one of your personal faves. Tanya (51:27.404) Linda Randall. Yeah, I don't know a lot of people that you travel with, but you sent a selfie in an elevator and you were trying to tell me who all was in the, and I was like, Linda Randall. Linda Randall. And you said, how do you know her? said, God on the mountain, she slays that song. And does she end up singing it on the cruise? Yeah. That's right. That's right. Yeah. I finally got the entire video because the first one you sent me was like three seconds. And I thought that was me and JSA. Jasa (51:38.222) huh. Jasa (51:45.317) Yeah. Remember us at Uvideas. Jasa (51:52.817) Yeah, because somebody came and asked me a question. I'm like, dang it. No questions, please. Tanya (52:01.922) My mom and papa, you my mom has a beautiful singing voice, strong, beautiful singing voice. If she had wanted to record albums and do that with her life, she easily could have. But her and her, yeah, well, her brother -in -law, yeah, don't have, I don't sing, but you know, I can, I played the piano. But her brother -in -law and her sister and her, they did travel and they did do things a lot. They Jasa (52:12.901) Wow, that explains a where your talent came from. Okay. Tanya (52:30.594) They were in high demand, one might say. Well, anyway, the band broke up at some point. And so I became the piano player and mom and my papa, my grandfather, they would sing God on the mountain. And when you talk about bringing down a church, they would bring it down. And I just had the pleasure, well, the honor, the undeserved honor playing the piano while they, while they did that. But in order to learn, Jasa (52:49.585) Wow. Tanya (52:59.65) how to follow them, because they would just take off. They just take off from... I really had to know that song. And so I had Linda Randall on a, not a CD, no ma 'am, on a cassette tape. Yes, I did. Was not, not that old. But I had her by my piano on my boombox. And I would just rewind and play to understand the chord changes and the runs and the transitions and the callbacks. Jasa (53:03.302) Mm -hmm. Jasa (53:12.325) At least it wasn't an eight track. Tanya (53:29.166) Yeah, I had to be on my toes. If I have listened to her sing that song once, I have listened to her sing it 300 times. So it's a part of my core memory. And then her face, of course I recognize her face, but also her hair. to die for. Jasa (53:36.458) my word. Jasa (53:42.405) that hair. Well, she is a beautiful person inside and out. So last cruise, I only knew her from the outside. This cruise, what's another thing that is great? This is my plug for Inspiration Cruises, people. If you want to go on a cruise, go with Inspiration Cruises because they're going to make it as personable and turnkey. Tanya (53:48.695) Yes, she Jasa (54:07.751) as you could possibly expect. And I just get so much feedback at the end. It just makes me so proud to be a part of this company. But we go on excursions with the passengers so that they can spend time getting to know the artists that they've only admired their whole life. So if you would have been with me, Tanya, you could have gone to a salmon bake with Linda Randall, Gordon Moat, and Jimmy Fortune. and we got to go to the salmon bag and you saw the reel that I made. They literally, it was a buffet, there was a waterfall there, we just went and spent the afternoon with passengers. Okay, here's the sweetest thing. So Jimmy Fortune sang with the Statler Brothers for 21 years. He wrote more than a name on a wall. If you don't know what I'm talking about, go listen to it now and take your Clen -X's with you. That song, I will cry every single time on that song. Tanya (55:01.047) Okay, we're going to link that song in our show notes so you don't have to remember it I'm putting it in right now. Okay? Jasa (55:01.095) and it's a mom saying, okay, okay. The mom is saying, please tell him he's more than a name on a wall. And you know what, while I'm talking about. So Jimmy, so he's been retired from the Statler Brothers for 22 years and he is a solo artist now. Well, my dad had told me how much he likes Jimmy Fortune. Tanya (55:15.064) Yeah, I did. Jasa (55:25.773) And I said, he's going to be on my cruise. And then I found out I was going to be on the excursion with him. And my dad said, if you get a chance to tell Jimmy, tell him I don't only admire him as a singer, but also as a Christian. So I got to tell Jimmy that. And he said, can I use your phone and send your dad a video? Yes. And did I not send you that video? OK. And he gets on there and he said, what's your dad's name? And I said, James. And he said, James. Tanya (55:46.21) Stop Tanya (55:49.677) You did. Jasa (55:55.803) He said, I love you too, buddy. He said, I appreciate you and just the most sincere thing. So then we get to the excursion and Cliff and I are eating with Nina and Jimmy. And I said, so, you know, really the purpose is, is that you just interact with the guests. And I said, I'll be taking pictures and everything like that. And Jimmy Fortune says, he said, I love it. I love it. He said, if God's given me one gift. Now we know what Jimmy Fortune's gift is. He is one of the most incredible tenors on the planet. He said, if God's given me one gift, it's loving people. And he said, I love people. And he and Linda and Gordon Mote cannot say enough about Gordon Mote. So he is blind, but like so, so super talented. He's played with the Gathers forever and everyone else. Like he is a legend. Tanya (56:34.306) Wow. Jasa (56:51.823) But anyway, then I had some other friends on the cruise, Carolyn and Jim, but Carolyn's first name is Elizabeth. So she, her husband said, now her name is Elizabeth, right there on the spot, Jimmy Fortune burst into the song Elizabeth. That was the Statler Brothers, probably number one hit ever. Best hit ever. Tanya (57:12.405) See, it's the gift that keeps on giving. You can't even go on an excursion and not be entertained by these people. Jasa (57:18.363) Well, then it got better. Of course, I'm videoing everything because I was like, are you kidding me that I am in Alaska and Jimmy Fortune is just impromptu Lee, impromptu Lee. Would that work? In an impromptu fashion, he started singing Elizabeth. Okay, well then you think it can't get any better than this. Gordon Moat was like, let's do that again. I want to harmonize with you. Tanya (57:28.846) Sure Tanya (57:44.172) No way. Jasa (57:44.999) had died and gone to heaven. It sounded like angels singing, me and angels. But it was just so fantastic. Like I could not get enough. So I was just floating. It was just such an amazing time. So I'll just let me tell you who was on there. When you get Gaither and friends, you don't know who his friends are going to be. Now lot of these friends have been with them for well, 40 years. I think at least yeah, since the beginning of time. So he has the Gaither vocal band, which at this point consists of Reggie Smith, whose wife is Lady Love, so she's on there too. Adam Crabb, who's from the Crabb family. His brother Jason Crabb just had Song of the Year last year called Good Morning Mercy. Can't get enough of that, so good. But then, okay, just a little interruption here. I was standing outside of my doors, you know, trying to keep a red out of the blue section. And then all of a sudden I hear Jason Krabs singing, They Baptized Jesse Taylor, which my dad used to sing. And so I said to her, don't come in these doors. I will be right back. But that is one of my favorite songs because my dad used to sing it to me. So I go in and film it for my dad, you know, because it's so good. And then the beautiful thing about Bill Gaither, it's all unscripted. No one knows when they're going to sing, what they're going to sing. Like it's just amazing. And then you think you've sung your song and you start walking to your seat and he'll go, let's sing that last verse one more time. So then he comes back and it just keeps going and going and going. And it was just so fantastic. So Angie Priam is on there, soulful, and her and Chris Blue are on there. Like they sometimes would go to their seat, and Bill would start talking and they would just start it from their seat all over again, over and over and over. And I'm telling you, we had hundred year old people rocking the boat, rocking the ship. I mean, they were holding hands, they bless them. They would get their phones out. Tanya (59:51.926) wow. Jasa (01:00:00.313) and try to find their flashlights and wave them. And if there people in my area and they were trying so hard and the song would be over before they could get their flashlights. So I was trying to help in that way. So they could get their flashlights on. Of course, then they'd turn around and go, now how do I turn it off? But it was so sweet. And of

For the past 54 years, Thomas 'Tahaka' Gaither has lived behind bars as a political prisoner. A former member of the Black Panther Party Baltimore Chapter, Gaither was a close associate of 'Marshall' Eddie Conway Jr., who spent his last years as host of Rattling the Bars. Although Gaither was released on parole decades ago, he was forced to return to prison in the late 1990s when Gov. Glendening revoked parole for anyone who had received a life sentence. Tahaka Gaither and his daughter, Tara, return to Rattling the Bars to discuss his life, their family's shared struggle to release Tahaka and live on in spite of the prison system, and what Tahaka's incarceration has meant for generations of his family.Studio Production: David Hebden, Cameron GranadinoPost-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast
