I love how confused Zac looked when Theo just randomly brought up cicadas. 😂
Theo was almost trying to do a bad job with this one 😂😂
This guy isn’t a true country boy if he doesn’t know about the cicadas
😂😂😂 #Driedcclearishbrowncicadaskeletons still scare the fuk out of me, when I accidentally run upon one…❤😂 #Atlantaanislandinaseaofrednecks
Lol I literally went from googling cicadas to watching this podcast to scrolling the comment section. Synchronicity? Who cares
They’re the El Camino of insects!🤣
I went to a Zac brown concert when I was ten years old and had just lawn tickets out an outdoor theater. We didn’t have a good view so we went up closer next to the vip and a security guard saw me and my mom and said I remember going to concerts with my mom, here’s two vip tickets. Next thing you know we’re on the front row jamming out to Zac brown my favorite artist. Zac came down while performing and gave everyone on the front row a high five. Might not seem that cool or life changing but to me that was the coolest experience I’ve ever had at a live concert, much love and appreciation for Zac and that security guard and what that experience meant to me.
Yea that security guard smashed your mom when she "had to use the bathroom"
That's fucking awesome!
@8.24. lmaooo dude what😂
I would have been stoked too
Nice
“This little restaurant It was ran by the Israeli mob,” “it’s called America” too funny 😂😂
Amazing
Best one. Right up there with Ku Klux Clams 😂😂😂
whats the timestamp?
Theo knows 🧃
@@robotickz40min 40sec
I was camp friends with Zac for a week as a kid. I later became a fan of his music and didn’t realize it was the same guy until I saw a picture of him as a child and remembered him as Zac from camp. He’s right about summer camp. Those times stick with you in the best way.
Lol Zac from camp got hot! 🤣
Most of Theo’s best quick jokes went right over Zac’s head lol
As with 95% of everyone else he interviews
I think especially when they were the racial one liners Zack has to be careful about busting a gut as somebody is hoping they can me it to be ZAC BROWN IS A RACIST and start beating that drum and he don't need that at his shows
yea this guy isn't too sharp
@@nickmotta8246don’t diss the dude, everyone just has a different sense of humor
He's but a vessel for us to hang with theo tbh
This guy just letting Theo's jokes die in the air like that.
To be fair it makes it more special when the odds ones click and add to it. Not everyone can do it
This guy isn't too sharp
Such a basic bitch icing Theo on every. Single. Joke.
@valeriefilerelli6794 So it's like some people just can't understand theo's humor. Dude, does say some bizarre shit
It’s because he’s dumb. I should know, I’m also from North Georgia 😂
*Congratulations on **#500**! We love you, Theo*
PTL baby
Gang gang😎
Z: Type two diabetes is everywhere T: God, I hope it's not around here
😂😂😂
Im so glad someone else picked up on this joke 😂😂
Amen to that LOL!
Hilarious 😂
🤣🤣 That got me good
“Colder weather “ is a masterpiece!!
Highway 20 Ride too. They have some great stuff. Not everyone’s cup of tea but I love their sound and his voice.
Meh
“I play the road “ also
Your whole existence is meh@@kaeserd
Agreed especially for traveling men
“Times have never been easy for my mother” had me absolutely floored lmfao mama I love ya!
pure moment of barf ime
YEA really BARF 🤢 🤮
@@godslap6503I AGREE 💯 HES FULL OF BARF 🤢 SHIT
YES THATS WHAT G TOLD ME THAT HES FULL OF THAT BALL OF SHIT
" I just set up a couple of birdhouses in my backyard, so I'm sure nature is gonna be flaring up there" 🤣🤣 Theo is unbeatable
Been on a bird kick too lately 🦜
You know that Theo is like the Australian boys .. His brain is working in the similar way . Theo is not trying to be funny , he is just d u m b ans that makes him funny and different..
“Queen bro almost Michael Jackson” is something that makes zero sense but makes all the sense at the same time
Ha I love that he said it, and I love how you put that 👌
I think I speak for everyone when I say Theo has impacted our lives like no other comedian/entertainer. I have genuine love for him, congrats on all the success. On to the next 500, GANG GANG FORVER!
And mark Normand
Love how Zac just glazed right over Theo’s, “Well he had to be!” comment 🤣🤣
he was so excited to say it too lmaoo
Great zinger
SHIIINEEE THAT LIGHHHTTT ON MEEEE
🎶I’ll sit and tell you my stories🎶
The first 3min of any interview Theo does is the best cuz you watch in real time the wheels turn in the guest’s head trying to figure out how this is gonna go and adjust accordingly 🤣🤣🤣
“Well he had to be [fast]” 🤣🤣
Came here to say this lollllll
The only downside of non-comedian guests. Right past him.
Same as Theo's line "It's called America" after Zac was searching for the name of a restaurant run by the Israeli mob.
timestamp? 😂
'Where Tone-Loc hooked up with my girlfriend, true story!' -Theo Von
"one has down syndrome, and I think one's a Kappa Sig or something" 😂😂
That was hilarious
Was looking for this comment 😅
That one went over my head lol
Is the joke that the Kappa Sigma fraternity does work with the Big Brothers program?
@@timo4938 think it’s that they are a bit special, if ya know what I mean
50:30 I love how Theo made himself laugh saying "a little bit of chicken fired" and tried to play it off
I was Zac's Fdx guy for a couple years. Zac, his family, and employees were super nice to me. Salt of the earth people for sure!
You can tell he's genuine people
My aunt was friends with Zac at south Forsyth, and that’s so crazy hearing him talk about Forsyth county.
Zac Brown aging like a fine wine Lord have mercy 🥵🤤
I mean, for real I didn't even recognize him. Wow hot
He's single too
@@nicolasaguilar1258wasn’t he married earlier?!
Ew ! He's only 45 and looks like he's pushing 60. Theo is 44 and looks like teenager compared to Zac. Plus... dude's got FIVE KIDS ! Who wants a little short old man with a ready made family. Pass
@@valeriefilerelli6794I'm with you. It's a pass for me too girl. He's nasty looking
I've never been a country music fan, but I ran karaoke shows for over 30 years and used to hear people sing his songs and I always enjoyed them.... As a human being, I have to say that I have gained a lot of respect for this man.... Prayers up Brother ❤️🙏
“McFish” has me laughing harder than it should
Same😂
It's not even called the mcfish. just because it's fish, and sold at McDonald's he figures that's the name lol
@@huskiefan8950thanks for explaining that 😂😂😂
It’s so funny how nervous Theo is in the beginning
38 minutes in and he still is
WTF is wrong with him in this one ? His energy is waay off. Threw the whole interview off. Hope he's doing ok.
He works alot
Definitely seemed to take him a little longer to come up with his quips. Still a great convo!
Bro interviewed a human F-150
Wym 😂 podcast hasn't even been out for 10 minutes
Fishing for that #1 spot lmao
He should be a truck on the next lightning McQueen movie.
With a bald eagle wrap 🦅
"That's uh Ford Fukin' RAIN JUR!"
The world is a better place with Theo Vaughn in it!
Von
Man Theo does a great interviewer. Love how when he interrupts Zac Brown he apologizes for it.
I don’t even listen to this guys music but man is he on point! What a cool person! 💚 He has a really peaceful aura.
Love how some guests are wtf about theoisms but quickly warm up and embrace the strange. The cicadas had me 😂😂😂
I went to do karaoke at Santa's Pub in Nashville back in April of 2017. I was up next to sing when some guy walked into the bar and went up to the DJ, grabbed the mic, and then starting singing Stand By Me by Ben E. King. That man was Zac Brown. You never want to follow Zac Brown in karaoke. If you're reading this Zac Brown: screw you, man.
Lmao I feel ya but I bet it was one hell of a free performance and once in a lifetime experience! I mean here we are 7 yrs later and your still tellin a great story!
😂😂
Happy 500 Theo! Keep up the great work. We need you
ptl baby
ron white lost a side burn🤣🤣 im crackin up!!!
😊 just a couple minutes in and these dudes are vibing like they are childhood friends. Zac Brown band has been one of my favorites and it's good to see the lead is a genuine dude in real life
“The El Caminos of insect” Amen, brother. Praise God
need more of that side by side camera shot. i love seeing the reactions!
Man this guys got a beautiful mind set. The camp story was awesome. So relatable for me.
Balls out for Theo von! Happy 500
put em on the table
I grew up in the 80's and 90's in Forsyth County, GA. It was an amazing place to be a kid, I just wish it was exactly the same way now.
He was fast. 'Well he had to be' 😂😂😂 I had to pause it, lol!
“If you slide somebody a McFish… you’re obviously a dirty sorcerer” -Theo V 😂😂😂
Lol he's not wrong..... the McChicken is where it's at anyways...... or at least a McDouble, but if someone is ordering a fish sandwich from McDs we can't be friends!! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm from New Zealand and I like the Tartare sauce in the Filet o fish burger :)
I love how Theo talks about the wrapping of the fish filet, and how it's been through some things lol
@@mikemichaels2914 Why don’t you go throw another shrimp on the Barbie, and ride around on your stupid kangaroos!
He needs to put this on a shirt
Zac, thank you for the positive Down syndrome mention. Sooo many people dodge the conversations about our DS community or share negativity and promote ableism. From a mom who has a 5 year old with Down syndrome, THANK YOU. Love you even more now.
All of the Theo Von Gang rides with, and for, our Down Syndrome community!! 💝 GANG GANG! Give your amazing baby a huge hug from me, please, Mama 💜
Gang gang
So much better than watching Rogan these days
My heart goes out to Zac man, he is all over the place trying to figure out what life is and he sings about the Lord and clearly needs Him so badly. Praying for you man.
You should interview Kings Of Leon with their new album!
“Where would they meet at? Like a Dollar General or whatever?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yooo that shit cracked me up in the car 😂😂
Theo, you should interview me, I’m a Plumber and got hell of a life story to tell, love your Blue Collar Interviews!!! GANG GANG #500
GANG GANG! DO IT ! THEO!
I'd like to go on with you and tell my stories about my crazy ass dad who's a plumber
Everyone's got a story.
Lol
@@McYerochas your mother told you the story of how we met?
Every guest is so excited to tell their stories and explain what they do that they often don’t notice when Theo tells a joke 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it happens almost every episode and I think it’s just bc ppl are in their head wanting to talk about whatever they came on to talk about but it’s really funny 😂
Wow this pod has come so far. 500 episodes is crazy. God bless Theo Von.‼️
I knew nothing about Zach and I was incredibly moved by his story and morals he reminds me of myself in a lot of ways. Congrats on 500 Theo been here since around 100🎉
ZBB is my favorite band. They are FANTASTIC live and most importantly, they are all very serious about helping and uplifting others. I've been to Camp Southern Ground a few times for concerts/reunions (shout out Zamily and Night of Candles!) and it a beautiful place Zac has built for kids and families.
Glad to know Zac has a good sense of humor….
I thought it was just me yo. This is a difficult watch. Dude has about as much personality as the chair he's sitting on
Zac is a real dude. Great music and great soul. Awesome pod!
Awesome waking up and having a new Theo podcast! Thanks for all you do bro. Such a bright light in my life
Congrats on the 500 Theo GANG GANG
Happy 500th bday Theo
My favorite episode was the Billy Strings episode. I’m so glad to see Theo wearing his apparel. This was a close second to that episode. So much of what Zac said really hit me hard. I can relate to so much of his story. GOD I love this show! Thank you Theo, just for being here where we can see you 👊🏼
“Times have never been easy for my mother” 😂
Zac is my idol and always has been and made me want to sing and play guitar for a living and the dream is to share the stage with him! Love you zac! Zamily loves you
I’m not familiar with zac but his energy and view on life is amazing. What he said about poverty of spirit rings so true
1:12:22 “Is this a real knife?” 🤣 I literally choked on my Gatorade 😂
Zac brown is fantastic he was the most genuine, love your comedic breaks, but if you get more open with someone it resonates in such a way not to be too parasocial. Love your work dude
Hell yeah brother, gang gang happy to make it to the 500th hope to see the next 500. Much love kid, keep on keeping on!
Congrats on 500 baby! Gang!
Dude is gettin’ that bread if he pays for multiple spiritual rituals, a life coach, trainer, nutritionist, opening a camp for kids/veterans etc. I mean, I realize he’s a mega country singer, but dang! Get it Zac! 💵 I’ll go eat my ramen noodles now 🤣
All love, Theo. Happy #500!!
Congrats on 500. Great interview as usual. Looking forward to many more.
Can't wait for that solo episode, it's been a while since the last one.
This was one of the first time I saw Theo cut off a guest, and you can tell he felt so bad 😂
Zac’s new integration summer camp is so beautiful, and to make sure that the facility will last and also make sure the camp is getting used all year Just an absolutely amazing way to give back ❤
bought me and my brother on floor tickets to ur show in utah today!! so excited to see ur work , ur the man theo
Happy 500 keep on keeping on
I gotta say I was on the fence about whether or not to spend the 2+hrs watchin this one. I'm truly grateful that I have! What an awesome human, great guest, fantastic conversation, truly enjoyable podcast! Thanks again for bringing it bro 🙏. Shine 🌟 on ✨ Theo 💫
As an F1 fan i saw the title and got hyped, then i saw the thumbnail 🥲
This was a very surprisingly amazing episode, love you both! God bless
500 gang gang
Theo hottest pod out right now don't care what anybody says.Congrats on 500
Congrats on 500 and thank you 🙏
Cheers to 500 brother!
Love theo love zach 😍 amazing episode these pods get me through a boring ass day puts me in a good mood and makes my day at work go by way quicker thanks theo❤️
What a fantastic n filthy 500 it’s been my brothers! Gang!
Awesome interview. Zac is the man!! Could not have picked a better 500. Congrats Theo
Can't wait for the solo podcast! Happy 500 🎉
Idk why I laughed so hard at Theo saying McFish 😂😂
1:13:14 I’d love to be a fly on the wall at his neighbour’s house. “What’s he doing now?” “Waiving a big ol’ knife around his birdhouses.”
Congrats Theo on 500 episodes, what an accomplishment!
So disappointed when I realized this wasn't McLaren's Zak Brown. Thought it was for a brief second since Theo went to the Miami GP. That would be a great show.
"its called America" Holy shit that was based Theo
Holy crap my favorite country artist of all time, Zac Brown! Nice one, Theo!
Congrats on your 500th amazing interviews, Theo! Keep bringing it 100%
I graduated from Mississippi State and I'm about to start a tally of how many connections it has to Theo Von's podcast XD So far this episode, the Sketch episode, and the Hardy episode all come to mind.
Bro Theo said he would use Zac Brown's knife on the birds in his yard lmaooo!
I saw Zac Brown play at that Sidelines in Kennesaw and at Dixie Tavern in Marietta many times back in the day… They put on a great show every single time.
Congrats on #500 Theo!!! 🎉❤🎁🎆...Zac Brown is awesome!
Congratulations on 500 theo thanks so much for all the laughs and great guests cant wait for thr next 500
Zac's face when Theo's talking about the "appreciated cicada" hahaha
#500! Bravo, Theo!!
Congrats on 5 hundred brother 🙏
500!! So great congrats!! This is my favorite podcast for sure!! ❤
