been plugged in for years but they go crazy and had no one's written a letter for years either is with us here in the studio brought his guitar and he's told us a secret there was a secret that only you and i know about and that secret is i forgot only you know only i know in the secret is that he is now an author i was reading a really good blog post but it's guy he was dissecting what this marketing guru woman said and she was a marketing guru and he went and looked at her books and said guess what nobody is behind her books ok and then he had this post and he said listen the truth it's really hard to sell stuff that's just the reality you know i have a friend who's an author and she sells books i mean she sold thirty five forty thousand books oh my god is about five or six books that's probably you know it's just it's really hard to sell books so how long have you been writing oh i'm doing it for a lot of years but i finally got sick of the thing sitting on my hard drive forever so i've written four novels and i said you know i'm going to put the first one i wrote out there and see how it goes and this is actually i rewrote it before i put it out because i think i've learned a few things since i wrote the first  a love but you have to be realistic about the fact that you're just one of one hundred thousand books that comes out every year and that people have so much to pick from all the time you know it's just like they can you know i mean you're the thing of the internet is great is there all these choices and people can get what they want but the negative is that you're competing with every book out there and you competing with every book has ever been written you're competing with the best books have ever been or you know anyone can buy any book or same thing with records you're competing with you know like so you get that poster on the floor you know if you made a record you competing with the beatles right people can buy them to go to records they're already more a click click click you know so it's i think as long as people keep in mind that they are one of a billion possibilities and though they'll probably be happier but you're telling us that as of today in one of those battles you want yeah i guess you're our  s i give up already didn't i you know we're not not giving up really is what never ends it's kind of like the problem with doing nothing is you don't know when you're done dogs been married three times so if i don't know what  was you know when it was born it was going to die or something and then they decided not to destroy it and it went and won two of those you know the kentucky derby when the kentucky derby really won another the other second the comic but but but now when i think about it wiley coyote was there was something to him you know i like what i always thought he was really funny and my grandmother who didn't speak a lot of english she and she spoke some english but not a lot she definitely didn't really understand like a cartoon with english right there there's no talking about like that about you know they say charlie chaplin was really popular for that reason be really yeah all the immigrants were showing up at that time and they nobody could understand english but you don't have to understand english to to watch a movie so do people need to understand english to understand our show depends whether they want to enjoy it or not if they want to enjoy it they really i got into this idea of let's take on really serious topics we have to do it in a way that shows some truths about it and it's kind of light hearted without making fun of it because we're not trying to say this isn't serious you know yeah yeah and so tom had this idea that as he was seeing these horrible videos of people being decapitated watch them he realized that you know this is really theater right they're not really trying to pursue a political agenda they don't think this decamped actions really going to help anything that's not actually a religious statement it's just designed to make everyone cringe it's trying to get a visceral response and that's the underlying here it's not quite as terrifying and and so we said ok let's try to write that song and and played it for your father well yes he we played we played a couple these were played like people are mean to my for my father and he is very quick and there haven't been enough dance crazes recently what could we do about that time i think we should find a new craze on the internet and make it our get our own we here comes everybody ok that that that video actually did very well at the buffalo dreams horror and fantasy film festival this year which was which was a lot of fun i miss  and your dream should be practicing no and your dreams should be smart then your dreams should be something i have approved from the start and your dreams to mold and your dreams should not surprise so maybe it was just a flush yeah so your website where can people go to hear more of you happy joe dot net and if they wanted to read something that fell out of your brain
