EPISODE SUMMARY
Fred and YelaWolf cover a number of topics, such as:
YelaWolf talks about how his whiskey brand, Creek Water Whiskey, came to be.
He tells Fred about how he has enjoyed whiskey in the past, with well known brands like Jack Daniel’s, and shares that he took a trip with his father to Woodford Reserve.
Fred congratulates YelaWolf on creating what, essentially, is his own personal culture, known as “Slumerican,” which has its own clothing and jewelry line and more. Generally speaking, a slumerican, according to UrbanDictionary.com, refers to someone “who was born and raised in the ghettos or slums of the United States of America.”
YelaWolf shares his gratitude toward not only his mother and grandfather for his work ethic, but also his friend, rapper Jelly Roll.
He also talked about his family culture growing up. There was no sleeping in, no milling about the house in pajamas - when you wake up, you get up and get ready for the day.
YelaWolf was friends with Winona Judd and Shooter Jennings as a kid, and had a lot of music connections through his mother that helped him in his music career.
When Fred tells YelaWolf he drinks whiskey for a living, he elicits a laugh - then YelaWolf says, “That’s a hell of a way to make a living. You know what? I do too, actually.”
As true whiskey nerds are wont to do, Fred and YelaWolf talk about condensation in the necks of whiskey bottles.
Fred tells YelaWolf the story of how he became a whiskey writer.
They also talk about how both have intense senses of smell - and how there’s always one guy who farts on the tour bus. This leads to what happens when a tour bus toilet is dumped while the bus is moving. Listen carefully for the yacht party story.
Did you know you can’t get Foster’s beer in Australia? So says YelaWolf.
YelaWolf talks about the evolution of hip hop from sampling to now, and tries to speculate on where it might go from here, noting that there are fewer rules than in pretty much any other genre of music.
He talks about having a new record ready to drop, that will also have a companion film that will be shot in Mexico. Look for a non-traditional release. Oh, and it’s a rock ‘n’ roll album.
Fred thanks YelaWolf for pushing him to find a creative way to conduct their interview.
YelaWolf also talks about his trips to Russia, including his latest one just as the coronavirus pandemic was breaking in the U.S. YelaWolf said he had COVID-19.
Fred revisits his interview with Killer Mike and the story of him attending YelaWolf’s birthday party, when a group rendition of “Sweet Home Alabama” broke out.
They finish things out by trying whiskey straight from a five-year-aged barrel at MB Roland Distillery … with Sasquatch.
QUOTABLES
YelaWolf on his work ethic: “I just think that working is the best way to show gratitude for being alive. I think that laziness is the ultimate sin, if there is such a thing. I work hard because I have a lot of ideas and I have a lot to do in my lifetime. I have more ideas than I could ever really get done. … My work ethic is not for the sane. I think you have to be a little crazy to think about the impossible being actually possible.”

Iam a huge Yelawolf fan and have been to many concerts, bottle signing events and supported Slumerican every step of the way!!! I have to admit, this is one of the best most down to earth interviews I have watched in a while. Loved this episode!!!

I met yelawolf at the sturgis rally. He was alone looking at patches at a tent. My friend yelled at him his real name. And he shook his hand. I was still star struck (I've always wanted to meet him I've been too 9 concerts) after we shook hands we chatted asked if he wanted to smoke he said only If we have it on us. We didn't. So we went our separate ways. 2 hours later he performed. Down to earth good dude.

How not to love this man, visionary and perfectionist , with an incredible ethic, seriously there are not many people like him faithful to his principles and to himself. Love You @yelawolf cause You are the Best in everything You do , nobody like You. ⚡🦅⚡ Slumerican baby.
Ghetto Cowboy is not on Shady Records, that's his first release from his label, Slumerican. His last album with Shady Records was Trunk Muzik 3
Yelawolf is a genius. He’s just different from evert other artist out there. There’s no one even remotely close to him, the way he makes music, his flow, cadence, the whole slumerica movement. Just a goat 🐐

He's from where I'm from. The dirty south and we have the highest crime rate and murder per capita for city size. Gadsden and anniston breeds them different. But I agree yela has been my favorite artist since radioactive. I smoked with him at a party once and I also used to be pretty good friends with Riley Green and lived right down road from him I smoked with him to. Legends come from down here 🎉
Don’t know the man at all but he seems like such a level headed and down to earth man, and full of talent. Glad to be a fan of this man

It's not how many times he falls, or get pushed that is the measure of a man. It's how many times he gets back up. Slainte my brother.
I love everything about this man. I have so many ideas that I’m stuck not knowing which way to go , I wish he would talk on how he decides and prioritize his ideas to keep that forward momentum -my ideas have me stuck in indecision that in turn is creating laziness in myself.

Why did big foot make him so uncomfortable?
I just finished a book (Blessed And Cursed )my closeup out in the open Encounter with a sasquatch at 40/feet at 4 am on a mountain on the Ohio/indiana border just got accepted for publish by page publishing. I'm a twin less identical twin. I've seen 2/in my life countless incidents I feel their drawn to me for some reason! I just completed a kids book as as well just got accepted for publish by Olympia publishing they do exist.hoping one day to get the money one day to get those 2/books to publish I never thought my books would be accepted.hard work does pay off.
