Taylor McAdams: Okay Right on Yeah I know a lot of guys out there that are like they get it I

Taylor McAdams: Do Have you ever met Jace Robertson you know who I'm talking about?

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I know Jace but I've never met him No. Love that family yeah.

Taylor McAdams: They have similar situations happen and they talk about it too And and most of the time you know it's all about the gospel Most of the time they come to Jesus about it and stuff but I can only imagine 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Well and I'm sure everybody that has ever came to my house had pure intentions 

Taylor McAdams: Yes

Justin “Danger” Nunley: The problem is 

Taylor McAdams:   they were not invited.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: people are crazy as and you don't know the difference whether people are going to you know show up with good intentions or ill intentions. So I just treat everybody that they have bad intentions that they come to my house.

Taylor McAdams: You and this is why you're my favorite guest on the podcast so far Everyone is like "You need to see the good in others You need to be” and like you do but you got to keep them away You got to have good

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I I hope you find Jesus but don't come to my house to find him Or you might be needing him  Taylor McAdams Yeah You will find him you know No it's I don't know It's weird It It is weird because we went from just being a normal you know No in  2020 2019 normal family

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah Yeah 2020 was still normal 2021's when the lid blew off of everything and it's still just like I don't The difference is is that apparently I'm highly recognizable right i don't know what it is I have grew a beard I have shaved my beard I have wore a hat not wore a hat Fix my hair

Taylor McAdams: Glasses, No glasses

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Exactly Hat backwards hat forward. Apparently I'm recognizable I don't know I don't get it right Maybe it's because I've had so many viral videos but 

Taylor McAdams: A few 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Yeah It it's just I don't know You know I don't know where I was going with all that but I was going somewhere with it.

Taylor McAdams:   That's okay because you know what I noticed at lunch today what's that so we should tell them We went as a group to um a barbeque Terry Blacks barbecue here in Fort Worth and there was a lot of guys that looked like you Did you notice that? you didn't notice So it was so funny to me because I was like "Wait I wonder if they know who you are." First of all they didn't Nobody approached you I was very proud of them.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: There was a group that knew who I was.

Taylor McAdams: Oh they did? 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: yeah They I could catch people looking from across but they don't want to bother you There's two different types of people. People that don't mind coming up to you while you're eating or with a large crowd and then people that are you know respectful and they will not come up to you when you're eating.

Taylor McAdams: Which do you prefer?

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   I really don't care You know now. if I'm at a business meal if I'm sitting down we're talking business you know it it can be aggravating because if I get off track it's hard to get me back on track unless I've had my Adderall and then I'll stay on track But you know. 

Taylor McAdams: Well okay So one thing that I was drawn to was like seriously same look ball caps t-shirt um tattoos and everything I was just like beards I was just like okay we need to just do a little shuffle Would people recognize-

Justin “Danger” Nunley: except for the beard is gone now.

Taylor McAdams: True.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah 

Taylor McAdams:   Did you- Was that a planned thing or?

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah, I got paid to do it. Yeah.

Taylor McAdams: That's amazing I would I would grow a beard to get paid to shave it.

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  I mean you could It's 2025.You probably can Yeah honestly could.

Taylor McAdams:   There's some pills for that.

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  I'm sure there is I wouldn't know about it but I mean, you do you.

Taylor McAdams: Oh man Do you yeah No Okay So I do want to talk about your tattoos though because I don't feel like that's something you've talked about a lot What are the stories behind your tattoos?

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I don't know Impulsiveness That's pretty much the story behind it.

Taylor McAdams:   Did you get any of them when you were serving in the military I guess you're still currently serving so that's kind of a trick question but, you know what I'm saying When you were-

Justin “Danger” Nunley: From the outside looking in most people think I'm already retired Yeah Which technically I am but I don't officially retire until like September the 1st 

Taylor McAdams:   Oh wow.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I'm doing Skillbridge It's like a program that allows service members to transition Not like that um from you know military-

Taylor McAdams:   That’s why you shaved her beard.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: from military life to to civilian life and and get integrated in the in the workforce because it is a huge transition for military members Me I'm not going to have to worry about that.

Taylor McAdams: True.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Thank God Luckily you know uh if the Lord's willing I will never have to work for anybody again you know.

Taylor McAdams:   Amen.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Um but you know it's a great program and and I said I think I'll take advantage of that program So I'm working for uh working for one of my really good friends Gus He owns Emerald Coast Harley-Davidson and Big Gus Tractor You got to say Big Gus Tractor and Equipment

Taylor McAdams: Now I recognize it because of the voice

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah. Yeah Down there So we uh So I'm I'm just doing videos with him and stuff to you know which I'm a big Harley guy I love riding So 

Taylor McAdams:   yeah that checks out.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: That's what I'm doing Yeah Yeah We're chasing a lot of squirrels I don't even remember where that where that point was going It's fun though.

Taylor McAdams:   It's so fun

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I still have not We're coming back We will come back full circle and I will finish my thought earlier about me going viral a lot I haven't figured out where I was at when I hit that circle but we're going to close that loop 

Taylor McAdams: I love talking to you because it is like talking to a squirrel And I feel like maybe you're dodging my questions but you're not at all You're just like "Oh squirrel." 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No you know how my videos are I interrupt people and then I give you a random fact that has nothing to do with what I interrupt That is how my mind works you know 

Taylor McAdams: You don't even have to try 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I don't I don't you know

Taylor McAdams:  Do you remember your first viral moment your first viral video all those years ago?

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  Um yeah I think it was the cloud one where the girl said "Hey legitimate question How do you throw a punch?" And I said "With your hand listen did you know that the average cumulus cloud weighs over a million pounds?" Now you do. Apparently I got the fact wrong I got the fact there was a FedEx truck that pulled up behind me right before I shot it and uh Yeah 

Taylor McAdams: They attacked you They said you're wrong. 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Oh they'll let you know when you're wrong.

Taylor McAdams:  Oh wow No wonder you don't Google yourself. That's Yeah No okay So So when that happened though do you remember thinking like "Oh I've got to do this again or what's my strategy?" Or were you just like "Hey I'm going to do another video." 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Now the hell with it Keep rolling.

Taylor McAdams:   Yeah.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: You know there's only one perfect person that ever walked this Earth and they they hung him up on some wood. So roll on. 

Taylor McAdams: Yeah And at going back tothat day like that time it was 20 You said 2021 I was thinking it was 2020 but maybe post a little post covid,

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah Yeah It was.

Taylor McAdams: Did you ever see yourself in that career like that you would be getting paid by brands to do things?

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  no I mean everybody wants to when they start doing videos Yeah you know and it it took me about uh probably about a year and a half of posting at least three videos a day before you figure it out right that's what everybody always asks me like "How do you do it?" I always say "Start posting you know and I'm not being a smart elleck when I tell them that That's what you have to do You have to figure it out for yourself." The I can tell you everything that I know but you're not going to understand what I'm saying unless you start doing it right um like the hooks for videos I never understood what a hook was up until probably about a year ago and I've been viral for what four years before that and I just didn't understand all this stuff right and now I understand it So I understand how to do standalone videos now you know with the you know with the funny stitches that I do. So yeah I say yeah just do it 

Taylor McAdams: That's that's really cool And I love to get this kind of serious side of you cuz everyone you know knows you as the comedian and it's just natural to you You don't even have to try which I really appreciate But um what's really cool for me is if we go back a little bit even before you were viral when you you mentioned living a normal life you have a a baseball softball facility right?

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  I did 

Taylor McAdams: Okay, Talk about that.

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  Me and my friend uh Ski owned a uh it was called Extra Innings and it was a baseball and softball training facility. We had like four batting cages and then a bullpin at the end And um I I I was a hitting instructor you know I taught hitting and I'm good at you know teaching how to hit a baseball you know really good at it And um I I thought that that's where I would wind up being is you know moving up and you know hopefully one day you know reaching the big leagues being a hittin coach or whatever but you know life had other plans So when when I blew up on the internet and realized I didn't have time for that anymore just said I sold my hal fback to ski for what I had in it and said "I don't care how much you sell it for When you wind up selling it go make your money man I'm fine." 

Taylor McAdams:   It's so funny to hear you talk about your friends because so far you've told us that you have a Gus and a ski and you were on Bunny's podcast It sounds like that's your your audience That's your person.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: 100% Yep That's what we do 

Taylor McAdams: No that's so cool I I love that And that you can go back and have those good relationships with those people That says a lot Did you Cuz you obviously you have two sons Yep Do they have any interest in baseball at all?

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah My youngest he's he's an athlete He's good He's uh and and he's just like me He's just like me Except for he doesn't understand when to and when not to He's got the comedic time And I was telling them when we was driving back from Terry Blacks that uh you know the youngest has figured out that he can say whatever he wants to say so long as it's funny right because I'm not going to like me being a comedian I'm not going to sit there and get on to you if it's funny Like it's a joke It's a joke you know and uh he's figured out he's he's figured out the comedic time and and he will say some of the wildest stuff you've ever heard but I'm like it's actually a good joke His mom doesn't think it's funny but I'm like "That is a great joke I'm stealing that." 

Taylor McAdams: & as his father you can.

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Yeah 100% Yeah Um you know I've been with you know several A-list comedians and Blake's been around and uh they hang out with Blake for like 10 minutes and they're just about all of them are like "That's the one”

Taylor McAdams: “He's got it.”

Justin “Danger” Nunley: He's he's gonna make a lot of money one day you know." 

Taylor McAdams: Wow That's got to be cool for him but then also cool for you as a dad I mean yeah Come on your your friends your peers which by the way you should go out on the road I think you're going to want to soon It's coming Yeah it's coming Yeah we're it's in its works Good I was I was going to do something with Cletus T Jud Do you remember Cletus T Jud

Taylor McAdams: I don't I'm only 28…

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  Now y'all can't hear what's going on up there but it sounds like two elephants are making love upstairs But she told me that we have noise cancelling microphone So you didn't hear that But just know that there's two elephants getting it on above my head 

Taylor McAdams: Those boots That's how it's made up there right there

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   So um what were we talking about?

Taylor McAdams: you're going on the road!

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Oh yeah I was supposed to do something with Cletus TJ. Do you remember Cletus TJ?

Taylor McAdams: I don't.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No He How old are you?

Taylor McAdams: 28. Yeah 28.

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Yeah Well that makes sense Well he used to do like parody songs country parody songs like every light in the house is blown

Justin “Danger” Nunley: He just crazy song If Shana was mine Just crazy parody songs Anyways so he does he does shows now and he reached out wanted me to do a show with him there in Panama City and I said "Yeah let's do it man." And then about two days before the show was supposed to happen He was going to stay with me the night before and us get uh you know some content and the the promoter nixed it for kater on in the year. So it's going to happen later on in the year It just didn't It was supposed to already happen but that's where we're at But standup is coming.   It's coming

Taylor McAdams: and as it should I mean you're naturally so funny even hearing and seeing you in your element just among people not even trying It's amazing and it's it's so cool that you've been able to help so many people without even knowing it realizing it because you're so funny You you provide like a comedic relief in some of the hardest times You've seen the hardest moments hardest times and the battlefield all you have seen some stuff which we probably can't even talk about but um but truly like you have such a gift So.

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  well thank you I appreciate that You know I've I've you know I've I've spoke about it before but I've you know I struggled with clinical depression you know all through my adolescent years and then my young adult years and everything And

Taylor McAdams: I'd say I'm fighting it now if we're being honest Yeah 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  Are you?

Taylor McAdams: yeah Yeah. The 20s and trying to figure everything out and you have to have it all The world says you have to have it all put together

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  And it's got to be harder now Like me you know at the age that I'm at I don't care what anybody else thinks. I've gotten to that point where I'm just like I don't care You've got your stuff you know your life you know who you are I know who I am right but as a young person and that's why I feel bad for my kids is cuz everything's online right um you know everybody's expected to be on you know the younger kids expect to be on Snap Insta everything And and it can get pretty cruel on there Now me I you say what you want to about me that's engagement baby You you leave a negative comment I'm happy about it You know that's that's videos more Remake it Remix it Yeah Exactly So but I feel bad for for you know if you still do care what people think right that's got to be hard 

Taylor McAdams:   Definitely 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: That's one thing I told my wife the the comments used to bother her and I was like "Look you got to stop reading or stop caring one or the other and I don't care you know so I I I read everything." 

Taylor McAdams:   And that's so beautiful Yeah I I do appreciate that that you have that insight and I know someone out there including myself needed to hear it especially the people walking above us

Taylor McAdams: Don't get me lying.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: It was 1990. Was it 1990 i think it was 199 

Taylor McAdams: Juan says he thinks 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: the story behind all of it is is fascinating to me that the younger sister stayed in nocoa Yes When when the father and the three sons moved up here to Fort Worth and she was like or no not the father had already passed away The three sons moved you know the whole conglomerate up here And she said "I'm staying in Nocona I ain't going to Fort Worth”

Taylor McAdams: “I'm making my own boot company."

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  And that's where you know the Nocona So growing up my family my dad's side of the family lived in Burke Bernett Texas Okay Which is right outside of Wichitaw Falls not far from here And there was a Nocona outlet there So all of our uh childhood summers was spent in Wichita Falls you know Burke Bernett We didn't get to go to Disney World or Disneyland or the beach or anything We went to Burke Bernett Texas and shopped at the Nocona outlet Shopped at the Nocona outlet seeing all the all the artwork for the Nocona the the snake coming up the bootth and the you know the grizzly bear and everything Um my parents had those t-shirts you know growing up So that's part of my childhood It's really cool to come here and see all of that When I was over there with Miss Nancie earlier we went back there She took me back to her back closet back there and it was all those you know boot boxes and those Nocona boxes 

Taylor McAdams: You know our listeners love Nancie So we've got to give Nancy a shout out I guess to set this up Nancy is awesome Justin was given the opportunity to go through our archives and I still to this day talk about needing to do a vlog and just show everyone but honestly you can't even the video doesn't do it justice.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No, not at all I' I've got goosebumps talking about it Is so cool to see all of it And then all of the all the old boots you know that was made for like icons just iconic people 

Taylor McAdams: Presidents celebrities you name it And a lot of the times there was a second pair made So we would give them a pair but then they kept a pair for historic archives and preserved it So that's like

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I tell you the current you know I don't talk politics at all Don't get into it N you know I ain't trying to I ain't trying to fight with nobody over politics cuz you know regardless of how you feel about it I'm not changing your mind You're not changing my mind Let's just roll on with our lives Let's coexist Yes Um the boots regardless of how you feel about him the boots that y'all have over there that were made for Donald Trump those boots are wild

Taylor McAdams:   We should stick to talking right

Justin “Danger” Nunley: 100 I My mind does not work like that You came in towards the end over there when we were designing the boots Okay I think didn't you actually I just met you over there but so I know I didn't see what you designed It's under under wraps Be cool It'll be cool I'm looking forward to it We're And we're actually going to give a pair away So I'm getting a pair for myself Heck yes And then we're giving a pair away And And trust me I designed the boots The boots I want to wear cuz I love wearing boots So can you give us a sneak peek yeah I There it's It's elephant The bottom's elephant you know It's going to be black on on red type feel It's going to be cool.

Taylor McAdams: That's so cool Looking forward to it Are you going to Are you going to ride them on your Harley are you wear them on your Harley is that how that works?

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   I don’t wear boots on Harley because I've got a I've got a heel shifter right but I can't I can't get used to it cuz you know when you wear like nice shoes on a bike you know when you go to shift they get scuffed right there right but I've got a heel shifter but I'm I'm I'm so used to just shifting with my toe Yeah Yeah I never use the heel shifter so probably not I I usually wear the same pair of shoes when I ride Wow 

Taylor McAdams: So do you rebuy them or are they just like an old pair that you just have to

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Oh no I rebuy them 

Taylor McAdams: Okay I'm just imagining

Justin “Danger” Nunley: they're not they're not white that they're not the white New Balance you know I'm not I haven't hit that dad age yet I love

Taylor McAdams: You're over 40 so you're pushing it But 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: thanks I appreciate that

Taylor McAdams: No I have to I have to give you some crap cuz you

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No I love it I love it

Taylor McAdams:  You’re Full of crap on the internet You're not wrong

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   You're not wrong 

Taylor McAdams: And it's so entertaining Yeah What does it feel like to know so So it's no secret you're well known Um my husband knows about you So many people here have said that and we even talked about you got recognized you know wherever you go How does it feel knowing that like everyone's husbands and boyfriends and dads know about you 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: i don't know It's weird I mean that that is that is a weird piece One thing that I found the weirdest is you know people come up to me and I've I've I've often said this that it seems like everybody knows me but I don't know anybody You know so they have that connection with me but I don't have that connection with them You know what I'm saying i love meeting people don't get me wrong right um but it I always feel like I'm missing out on something because they always come up and they're like "And I don't know you like you know me," you know type thing 

Taylor McAdams:   Oh that's such a trip

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah Yeah

Taylor McAdams: Wow Even now I did a lot of research watched a lot of podcast hours of you and um even even now it's like we're carrying on a conversation and really realistically we you don't know me from Adam So that's got to be so Wow Thinking about your perspective is Yep That is wild Yeah Yeah I guess that's why it's good 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Um everybody that I meet I feel like I'm missing something Yeah

Taylor McAdams:   You're like "Wait were you just talking about me?" But not really but like Yeah Yeah I totally understand that feeling Whoa Okay Well then help us fill in some blanks and maybe I'll I'll get to add some along the way Um I loved a story that you told about uh and you didn't really get to go into detail so now is the time to go into detail You met your wife growing up in church at the Church of Christ and we were kind of talking about it at lunch but my husband grew up Church of Christ And I was totally shocked when I learned that there was no instruments No instruments and small town

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   except for the pitch pipe 

Taylor McAdams:   Oh 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   you know just to get get you on get that song leader on pitch before before you start singing you know 

Taylor McAdams: And you know in a small town there's really not a lot of talent There sometimes hit and miss There's some great talent but Tyler's church there's really I hope you guys are not listening right now There's 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   She's saying you can't sing I am absolutely saying you can't sing And that's okay because I've been to a lot of Church of Christ and and there's some of them they can't say Now there's there's a few though you get back off into the country and the acoustics are just right And the congregation where me and Crystal met the acoustics are perfect There's some great singers there and and it is it's is better without the music 

Taylor McAdams:   Okay So tell us about that your love story your “meet cute” 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: There's really none I mean she's she's a lot older than me You know Crystal's you know I think she's pushing 60 now She's not She's only four years older than me but we so we were we were you know separated by by four years classes in school So you got to think about that right so like I was you know I was in middle school when she was getting ready to graduate high school So 

Taylor McAdams: Oh wow Yeah 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Uh so we didn't date or anything like that back in the day I was already gone and off in the military before we started you know talking and and decided to I was actually in another country I was in Qatar Wow I was in the Middle East Yeah When when she reached out and apparently my mom went up to her at a at a funeral home of all places and said "Hey uh you know Justin single like "Mom what are you doing y'all are at a dang funeral home Why are we doing this?" But yeah it worked out 

Taylor McAdams:   Did she just send you a letter how did she communicate with you 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: uh well it it was in the 2000s Lord have mercy It's not like we didn't have email So we emailed We emailed We emailed Okay But we also did Yeah There was some letters sent you know Yeah We didn't have the iPhones Yeah we did When was the first iPhone 2007 We didn't have iPhones then. No the iPhone hadn't come out yet 

Taylor McAdams:   Whoa You had to send the codes click the button three times to say 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: unless you had a Blackberry

Taylor McAdams: Oh yeah That changed everything a bit Do you still have your letters that you guys wrote back and forth to each other 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: i'm sure they're somewhere 

Taylor McAdams: You're gonna have to dig them out That's probably some good content Some spicy content 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I can't I can't No because I know I say I say I don't know I know where I know where they would be at They're in the same bin as every other card and everything else I got while I was down range I am a very sentimental person And to see you know cards from my grandparents that have passed away would wreck my week 

Taylor McAdams: Oh no 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: So but yeah So I'm I'm That's one thing about me that I'm very very sentimental I don't even like to look at old pictures when when memories pop up on Facebook of the kids when they were younger I don't even like looking at that I'm like "Scroll away Can't do it." You know 

Taylor McAdams: that's such a good dad My dad's the same way Doesn't want to watch everything It makes you feel old First of all 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: it has nothing to do is it's it has nothing to do with with my age or you know my mortality or anything like that It has to do with you know the you know simpler times being gone you know cuz you don't get that you know we don't get that anymore It don't seem like 

Taylor McAdams:   it's so crazy to think about that cuz you are not making your living but a big part of your living is on TikTok with the phones It's one of those necessary evil things Do you ever want to check out do you ever just want to be like go back to simple times get a flip phone be gone fishing hunting for the weekend

Justin “Danger” Nunley: yeah Yeah Yeah

Taylor McAdams:  My husband talks about that all the time We're like this close to getting him a flip phone I think Yeah

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   It's it but it's it's impossible in this day and age you know especially if you you know you want to keep you know making the living that you're making or Yeah You know I don't know I couldn't imagine life without social media at this point No And I don't even consume a lot of social media True I'm I you know I spend most of my waking days you know creating instead of consuming I mean I probably if you looked at my screen time it would be wild but you know that's all you know the editing and shooting and everything Probably scrolling wise I probably only get to scroll maybe 30 minutes a day 

Taylor McAdams: Oh wow 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah And that's when I'm laying in bed before I fall asleep with the phone on my chest you know Yeah 

Taylor McAdams: What a time That's like totally different than how we grew up for sure That's that's I almost unfathomable.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Well yeah And as as much content as I put out because I try to put out at least four videos a day sometimes more right so um it's it turns into about 17 hour days for me 

Taylor McAdams: What is your what is your creative process do you do you see something do you get inspo do people send you videos do you just think of a fun fact that you're like "Hey I'm going to share this now." 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   No I people send me stuff Um I don't really even know anymore I really don't have a clue.

Taylor McAdams: You heard it here first He's soul searching.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah I I don't know I don't know It just kind of comes together at this point you know  That's beautiful Just everything just comes together You've just been doing it long enough that you kind of have the idea down And is it Are you a one man show do you Yes shoot record edit

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yes, everything.

Taylor McAdams:   Wow.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I'm tired No wonder it's 17 hours Tired boss Yeah No So I I do everything except for the business negotiations and stuff Yeah And I've got a I've got a business manager Her name's Carissa Phenomenal person She's like sister to me Her her husband Brent is like a me and him are best friends They live in Bristol, Tennessee And uh they are absolute godsends because I I wouldn't be as far along as I am without them Mhm So um I do every bit of the dayto-day stuff when it comes to like the business side of the house, and like you know making sure that you know I have plane tickets making sure that hey you got to you got to post this today for this brand you know she she takes care of all that So she kind of she kind of mothers me a little bit and she's like hey we got to get this done you know I'm like okay You know 

Taylor McAdams:   and you need it 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: It works out Yeah Yeah And it lets me kind of just free range you know with my mind and when she needs to pull me in to do something you know she's like "We're on a hard deadline We got to do this." 

Taylor McAdams: Is that because you are an entrepreneur you have several businesses Do you like the business side of things or do you like just to be the funny entertainer on Cloud9 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: uh do I like doing it yes It's a necessary evil You have to do it But it also you do too much of the business stuff it takes away from the creativity you know and and in order to in order to keep making content you got to be creative.

Taylor McAdams: True 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: You know so you know Yeah No that's I guess that makes sense

Taylor McAdams:  It does 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah

Taylor McAdams:  And I'm curious to know there's a lot of our our audience is um about our in between our ages actually trying to figure out life maybe just getting established in businesses So what's your best advice then as an entrepreneur like what what advice would you give to someone that's like starting a business or going out on their own or even continuing just to freelance there's a lot of that too

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Be too stupid to quit Every successful person throughout history at some point was met with such adversity Nobody would have blamed them for quitting They'd have been like "Yeah it just wasn't in the cards." But they they pushed on and they was too stupid to know that they should have quit and they became super successful any autobiography you read from any successful person throughout history overcame tons of adversity to become the successful person they were So you know failure failure is part of the process and it's a it's a it's a part that you have to have because if you don't know failure you're not going to appreciate the success So 

Taylor McAdams:   wow that is solid advice because I mean a fear of failure is a huge fear for everyone They say public speaking is the biggest fear You've already conquered that but I would say fail I don't know officially but I would say failure is right under that A lot of people don't want to fail 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Well you know it's like when I when I started doing videos I started doing videos in 2019 right and I posted for a year and a half before I figured it out Three times a day barely getting noticed at all I had a I had a viral moment here and there of just telling my wife jokes and stuff But you know when it it took all of those I probably posted 3,000 videos you know and and none of them caught any traction but because of those 3,000 failures was able to let me be successful That's how I look at it you know I mean I may not have a clue what I'm talking about but you know I I think it had something to do with it It builds character you know It does It's like "Oh if I if I can do that for a year and a half and become successful doing I can do whatever."

Taylor McAdams: I love that you said building character My parents would always say um whatever I wanted to do I was complaining about or whatever And they'd be like "Oh Taylor it builds character." Or like "Go clean the horse dolls again Go clean the pig whatever." And I would be like "Finally I told my mom one time I'm tired of building character I want to have character I want to make it." But I think there's something along that along those lines that like it fuels you to kind of open

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Well it's like that old saying you know if you pray for patience God's going to test you Yes He He's not going to give you patience He's going to make you learn patience You know that it's the time I It's pretty much the same same aspect of it So 

Taylor McAdams: yes No that is so real And I feel like I've gotten too serious with you I feel like you're like a fun guy but I've like really cracked the code on being serious So

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   I don't like it I don't 

Taylor McAdams:   I don't really like it either cuz you're just so funny So I' I've got to change the tune a little bit Okay And um ask you some crazy things that have happened to you So like I'm genuinely curious Is has there been anything that's happened to you in the airport or somewhere that is like so embarrassing for either you or someone else cuz cuz along those same lines of you saying when people talk to you and they know you Oh somebody trying to take a selfie with me while I'm at a urinal 

Taylor McAdams: No 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah Who in the does that i never did ask before we started this Can I cuss 

Taylor McAdams:   yes we'll bleep it 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Who in the And if you're watching this what in the were you thinking he said "Hey I'm huge fan Love your content Can I get a selfie?" And I said "It's in my hand." Like "Bro can I come out of the bathroom first?" You know yeah Yeah It gets because I've never been to 

Taylor McAdams: I'm a I'm a I have a sister I don't have any brothers I've learned a lot through marriage meeting a husband and stuff but So 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I bet you have

Taylor McAdams:   explained it I have culture shock We have a whole podcast about it Um in the restroom there's no stalls for urinals right it's just like all Yeah

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah For the most part Yeah Out there for everyone Yeah Yeah Well well you usually have dividers unless you're at a stadium and then you've got a big trough  

Taylor McAdams: That's what I was thinking 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: And they put Yeah No no no That that's just at stadiums Okay In sports arenas you have a trough and they put ice in the trough 

Taylor McAdams: to keep from splattering

Justin “Danger” Nunley: That and it keeps the odor down

Taylor McAdams:  Ew Yeah Yeah 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: So yeah No there's usually dividers so you're not sitting there just watching somebody you know cuz who wants to do that 

Taylor McAdams: that's weird Yeah 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   I mean I I wouldn't Who would do that 

Taylor McAdams: clearly people do though because they wanted a selfie with you

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  right apparently Yeah Yeah I I don't know And we wasn't even at an airport or anything Like you're not in that big of a hurry No You know but I don't know Yeah 

Taylor McAdams: People are awkward though People probably do get really weird like they kind of get starruck and sweaty and don't really Yeah I could see that Yeah that's Wow Anything else that's pretty crazy 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No the probably the coolest experience that I had just randomly was we had went to Vegas Me and Crystal were in Vegas and we had went to this show called Absent Have you ever heard of that show no Well it's it's an interesting show Okay I don't think there's any nudity but it's it gets wild you know Um it was about as far as as as my wife would have would have went You know what I'm saying and uh absent Okay Yeah weird absent And then we're sitting front row right and uh after the show somebody comes up behind me and slaps me on the back and it was one of the it was one of the Backstreet Boys and he was like "Listen did you know?" And Crystal's mouth just it was uh yeah her mouth just flew open And uh yeah that was that was when I first blew up Okay You know so that's when I I think that was kind of the moment that me and her both realized "Oh this is”

Taylor McAdams:   Wait you made it?" Yeah Yeah It's kind of cool That is a cool 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: And it was one of the Backstreet Boys and one of INSYNC Do you remember which Joey Fetone and uh Yes it was Joey Fetone and uh we're mutuals It's horrible that I'm I'm sitting here drawing a blank It'll come to me in a minute What a cool moment though That that I mean wow 

Taylor McAdams: He came to you and that was probably cool for him cuz they probably don't get to do that much you don't get to do that much you know 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: right they were setting up in the VIP area and uh they were doing a show the next the next uh the next day and yeah 

Taylor McAdams: this is random So some people that are good at speaking normally can sing Can you sing growing up Church of Christ 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Hell no Okay Are you kidding me have you seen the videos where I've tried to sing i guess not No Yeah that's not me putting on It's bad 

Taylor McAdams: That's you

Justin “Danger” Nunley: It's bad  I'm going to have to go back and look I'll link one below for you guys too 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah It's bad It's bad She'll she'll throw the link below (https://www.tiktok.com/@gingerbilly1/video/7427871475425742122) But No, uh you know the singing barber Yes Have you seen him so me and him are good friends And that idiot has convinced people that I'm his father He has convinced people on the internet that I'm his father somehow And people legitimately think that I was his dad and got sent to prison People will believe anything But anyways he he every time I get around him he gives me voice lessons and tries to teach me how to sing And I can I can match pitch 

Taylor McAdams: You can harmonize 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No I can't harmonize That That's what I thought

Taylor McAdams:   Okay Yeah 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I thought I was harmonizing I was matching his pitch. Okay So I can match his pitch No matter where he takes it I can stay right there with him When he stops I fall off Harmonizing I That's what I thought too But harmonizing is where you're like one or two above or below Right So it's like a different pitch Little bit of a different pitch I didn't know that 

Taylor McAdams: You're like "Yeah I can harmonize." 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah 100% Yeah 

Taylor McAdams: That's actually really cool because I don't think a lot of people can even match pitch I didn't even know what that was until 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Oh I'm phenomenal at matching pitch Matching pitch Yeah I said it right Yeah Yeah I can do that But if you stop I'm done It just falls off I go to right back to tonedeaf Justin You know I'm telling you can't carry tune in the bucket

Taylor McAdams:  In another life if you don't make it as Justin Danger you can male it as tonedeaf Justin

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I always uh growing up I always we had a trailer My dad My dad owned a uh Is that you or me growing up I thought I had do not disturb So I'm kind of wondering if Can I look at it real quick can we take a time out So growing up my parents had a trailer My dad had a trailer He used to own a backhoe business and it was a big trailer you know like platform trailer And I used to stand up on the side of it and acted like I was singing to hundreds of thousands of people, I wanted to be an entertainer right but nobody told me until I was an adult, you can't sing You know 

Taylor McAdams: where were those people in your life telling you

Justin “Danger” Nunley: you know when when when people say the worst lie you can tell a kid is you can do anything you want No you can't No I couldn't sing I wasn't going to be a singing entertainer but I could still be an entertainer Yes you know So yeah that's that's kind of where we're at I can't I can't carry a tune in the bucket Saved my life 

Taylor McAdams: That's so relatable though cuz do you remember Hannah Montana 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: i do She can't sing either 

Taylor McAdams: Well.. 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Yeah Miley Cyrus she can't sing She sounds like a 80-year-old smoker 

Taylor McAdams: That’s a hot take.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: That's not a hot take That is not a hot take And Billy Ray couldn't sing either Come at me Wow Tell me I'm wrong Tell me in the comments I'm wrong cuz I'm not Billy Ray couldn't sing He had one good song 

Taylor McAdams: Achy Break Your Heart 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: No Some gave All 

Taylor McAdams: Oh I don't know that I've even heard that Yeah I'm gonna have to go 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: You got to listen to Some Gave All Phenomenal song Very moving song Uh but great song So 

Taylor McAdams: okay Well she did it She So maybe you There's still hope for you 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Yeah she sounds like a 80-year-old smoker now I mean if Jojo Seiwa can make it anybody can you know True That girl something else Lord True 

Taylor McAdams: I didn't know that she wasn't as loved as I thought So I was I was actually I felt really old I was at a wedding a few weekends ago and a little sister's a friend's little sister was like fangirling over these people and I was like oh she looks like Jojo Siwa and she looked at me like I had three heads like that was an insult I don't know I was like I thought I was doing good I thought I was being cool and hip but okay that's one thing that we need to talk about because you have learned it I've seen a video that you've done with your sons You're you keep up with the trends How do you feel about the new language that the kids are speaking nowadays 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   oh I'm I'm I'm here for it because I always my kids whenever I use like one of the new words yat or something GYAT When you know level seven got uh they're always like I do know what that means I'm like dude I'm chronically online right i obviously I'm going to know what these words mean You know I forget what word I dropped on my my 11-year-old the other day and he was just like 

Taylor McAdams:   was it Rizz or Ohio or Skibityy toilet those are even old now 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   No, I forget I forget what it was but it was like it was one of the new ones like hot off the press And he was like "How do you know that?" You know what I think's weird what is like how how all the rumors before the internet got to every and I've heard other podcasts talk about this before like every kid in America in middle school or high school when I was growing up was convinced that Marilyn Manson had had his two bottom ribs removed You can use your imagination for why we thought that right but everybody in America thought it But none of us had the internet We didn't have the internet 

Taylor McAdams: We couldn't look anything up 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: How in thedid that get around 

Taylor McAdams: you know how it got around cuz they called someone, they called someone

Justin “Danger” Nunley: It spread like the covid virus

Taylor McAdams: Uhhuh They called someone They called someone Were you Were you around and I I this I don't mean this by calling you old but were you around 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: he's looking it up to see why we thought this

Taylor McAdams: Juan's over here on his phone That's funny 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: He was like "I got to see why you removed those." She bought him ribs This what you're thinking Juan.  

Taylor McAdams: When you were growing up did you have the um what was it party line calling Do you remember that do you remember Party Line Calling

Justin “Danger” Nunley: yeah Where you like request a song and stuff no Is that what you're saying like um I grew up in a small town So you you know where you know the town's name that I grew up in Cherokee, Alabama We had we didn't have any red lights

Taylor McAdams:  Wow 

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   We was like 30 miles from a Walmart Oh my gosh It was a small town on our graduating class was 69

Taylor McAdams: What an interesting number

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   the entire graduate Very interesting And that was my my number in football for a year and until they wouldn't let me have it again But yeah very very small school right no I don't know what a party line is Okay We had request lines where you would call them profess your love and you know play don't take the girl for me 

Taylor McAdams:   over the radio Yeah Yeah Man did you ever listen to Delila did she was she in Alabama

Justin “Danger” Nunley:    I do remember that night Late nights with Delila is like still Sunday night slow jam Maybe I think she still does it 

Taylor McAdams: I don't listen to the radio I need to listen to the radio

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Nobody does anymore Everybody's too busy consuming digital media you know Yeah That's why I always say you know legacy media is dead If you want to advertise come holler at somebody like me That's right Yeah We We'll get We'll get the word out baby We'll get the word out 

Taylor McAdams: While I have you I am so genuinely curious to know what's going on in your head So I've got to know what is a conspiracy theory that you will die on like that you know that you believe in I want to I want to know 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: You're trying to get me cancelled 

Taylor McAdams: Well no No Maybe maybe don't be too real

Justin “Danger” Nunley:   Look 

Taylor McAdams: Maybe you don't even like conspiracy theories 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Oh no I do 

Taylor McAdams: I figured 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Oh I do I do I'm here's how I look at conspiracy theories right i love dabbling in them but you know like people say 911 was inside job right you start talking about that right so many people would have to know about it and not say anything You can't keep anything a secret these days No Right No So something can get leaked somewhere Oh something's getting leaked like like you know our politicians can't you know have diarrhea without it getting leaked to the media you know 

Taylor McAdams: Yes Because someone knows someone 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: Can I say diarrhea ? 

Taylor McAdams:  You can say diarrhea Please say diarrhea.

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I love I love that word Um no Uh the moonwalk

Taylor McAdams:   You don't believe it was real I wasn't there

Justin “Danger” Nunley: I wasn't there Could have been real I'll support you cuz I wasn't either Could have been real It's hard for me to fathom Yeah it really is You know I I don't know And people say "Oh we we placed a reflector on the moon." If you look at it and you bounce the laser off of it you can see it Maybe So maybe we did But I see a lot of reasons why we we didn't And if we didn't what was the reason why we didn't it was to you know bankrupt the Russians so we could win the Cold War which we did you know with the space race We beat the Russians to the moon Beat them to space They sent a dog up The Russians sent a dog up Sputnik Wow On a suicide mission That dog never made it back You know say it Say it So that poor dog justgave us life for nothing We won USA baby all the way 

Taylor McAdams:   which like you can you can really I mean you've lived it You helped us win things You you know you you can definitely say USA number one 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: USA number one

Taylor McAdams: Wow That's honestly so cool

Justin “Danger” Nunley: There's been a couple unnerving moments

Taylor McAdams:  I bet 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: You know when you're trying to forklift something and it falls off the forklift and it hits the ground but they're pretty safe You know it's just like a big big paper weight until you put the fuses and everything in it Make it all work

Justin “Danger” Nunley:  You better leave that in there or I'm going to call you out on a video Juan's funny All day long he he'll say he's going to do something and I'll stop him as he's walking out and tell him to go do what he was going to do 

Taylor McAdams: I witnessed that and I have never I have to tell everyone this because they might understand I have never seen Juan laugh as hard as he did after the after the door was closed So he didn't want you to see him laughing at you 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: The look I wish somebody would have been recording when when Juan Ju one was already through the door He's like "Hey we was fixing to go to Terry Blacks." Yes And he had his camera He had this big camera He had been filming all day Bless his heart Because he's a trooper He didn't bring a tripod So he's holding this camera all day His arms have to be tired Well one arm anyways you know the other one's probably well worked out but uh he went he said "I'm going to set this down before we go eat." And 

Taylor McAdams:   there they go again 

Justin “Danger” Nunley: He said "I'm going to set this down before we go eat." And I waited till the door had already shut I mean it was probably about that far from shutting I said "Hey Juan." And made him come back He had probably you probably gotten what five six steps away by then just far enough to where it would have been aggravating to turn back around and walk back He walked back opened the door and he's like "Yeah." And I said "Hey you need to go put that down before we go eat." And he just he This was the look I got from and then turned and walked away Yeah So I didn't get the laugh that you got I did Yeah So when you told me that he laughed I was like "Okay good Juan's not pissed We're good We're good." That's actually I love to mess with people
