Chapter 1: What is Riley Green's travel schedule like?
No, we got a couple of meetings and then we're rehearsing tonight. We're performing on The Voice. Oh, nice. Tomorrow. Very cool. And then we're in Vegas and then Denver and then I'm wrapped up until New Year's. Okay.
What do you want? Should we just start? I thought we did. All right. Yeah, we go.
We just started.
How's it going, Riley? Good, man. How y'all doing? I'm doing great, yeah. So anyways, we were talking about your travel schedule.
Yeah, it's been a busy year. I signed a record deal in 2018 and I was, you know, I traveled a lot touring, but it was pretty regional. I was driving everywhere. I'd never even been on a plane. And of course, the last few years, you know, we played in Europe this year, Australia, done several tours in Canada and obviously all over the U.S. So we're pretty well traveled now.
I'm ready to spend a little time at the house for the holidays.

Chapter 2: When did Riley Green first fly on a plane?
You getting tired?
Yeah, I'll tell you about like that. Yeah. This is me amped up right here.
This is you amped up? When was your first time on a plane?
2018.
2018?
Yeah, so I don't know, 30-ish.
Were you like afraid to fly or you just never got around to it?
I was probably afraid like everybody else, a little nervous about it. But of course, now I sleep better on a plane than I do in my bed. So I used to.
But I also feel like in the South, it's like everyone drives anyways. You know, it's like when you're out here, you're so far from anything. But like in the South, it's like Tennessee's right there and Florida's right there. And, you know.

Chapter 3: What was Riley Green's breakthrough moment in music?
Chapter 4: How did Riley Green get into country music?
Well, yeah, even in like, you know, the middle of Illinois and stuff like there's a little community and then there's 40 miles of cornfields and nothing like Alabama. You know, Georgia is the same way. There's just communities all over the place. We drove to Birmingham. That was an hour from me. Atlanta was an hour and a half. And. Birmingham was a big city before I got on a plane.
Isn't that crazy? It is crazy. Were you home for Thanksgiving or were you on the road traveling?
I was. I got home for about four or five days and then I went up to Kansas and I've got a little farm up there. I went deer hunting for a few days. Mostly just slept in the woods.
Is your family back in Alabama?
Mm-hmm. My whole family lives in Jacksonville, Alabama, where I'm from. Okay, yeah.
Does Wilson have a farm in Kansas? Where is he at?
No, he's in Oklahoma. Okay. My brother-in-law just bought some farm out there to hunt on, yeah.
Yeah, they got all, like, deer. You big, you big, you've been a hunter for a long time.
Yeah. Yeah. I was, I was really into sports when I was in school. And then when I quit playing ball, I think it was like my way of being competitive still, like everybody going out and trying to trick a deer or ducks or whatever it was.

Chapter 5: What inspired the collaboration with Ella Langley?
Oh, they weren't asking me. They were showing up.
Oh, okay. The whole, like, you want to show together?
But it was a cool experience, I guess. I certainly wasn't, like, calling trying to get somebody to get me on another one after it was over. But I did. It was something I had no idea what all goes into a show like that. So it was really eye-opening for me never having any experience like that.
Yeah. That's crazy. The holidays are a time for family, but with all the travel, it's more important than ever to make sure your family is safe and accounted for. Life360 is a family connection and safety app that lets you track your family members' locations in real time.

Life360 is amazing at streamlining family communication and coordination. You'll know how far away your family is at any given moment. And they have the peace of mind that they are safe and secure.
As a new parent myself, nothing is more important than the safety of my child. And it's just about staying connected, having that peace of mind of knowing they are safe so that you can respond if the people you love are in need. Parents will love some of the features that keep your kids safer than ever, such as real-time speeding monitoring, 30 days of location history, and low battery alerts.

Chapter 6: How does Riley Green handle fame and public perception?
Words of affirmation, right? No, there's words of affirmation. There's gifts. There's acts of service and physical touch.
And quality time.
And quality time, sorry. Grab that one.
I don't like being touched all that much. There you go.
Okay, so definitely not. You do not want to be touched.
Same with me. Nick's the same.
I'm always like, let me get inside of your skin. And he's like, I don't really want to be a part of that.
Yeah.
You know, you wouldn't be into that?

Chapter 8: What is the meaning behind Riley Green's songs?
He's exhausted.
Are you sleeping? No, so there's four of them.
Can I tell you the four?
Can I tell you the four?
Yeah.
And you can pick.
Okay. So wait, let me ask you this. Do you think that people... are responsible enough to pick their own? You think they should be able to? People are going to say what they want you to think they are.
No, no, because none of them are bad.
But they're going to pick their favorite.
