Singer-songwriter Oliver Anthony has a truck with 325,000 miles, including a salvage title. He revealed that it was going like a covered wagon, since it fell off the back of a tow truck.
And now he wants to sell it.
We hope he told Joe Rogan today The Joe Rogan Experience Podcast, someone is going to buy the car from him and donate the money to charity.
It was among the revelations of the “Rich Men of North Richmond” songwriter, who became a sensation for his blistering political lament for not being heard by a certain segment of the population.
In addition to podcast appearances, Anthony also appeared last Tuesday night at Joe Rogan’s comedy club, Comedy Mothership, based in Austin.
“It’s funny because the song [“Rich Men North of Richmond”] “It’s not even in the top five,” Anthony said of his controversial success. “I’ve written songs with similar messages. But as far as this kind of anthem, as people call it, that’s not something I usually write… I had no idea that song was going to have the reaction it did.
Anthony noted that the parody of the song is being circulated by artificial intelligence.
“Any online presence I have now is from me, off the phone… I haven’t invested the time looking at everything that’s going around, but friends and family have sent me stuff, and some of it is pretty funny,” Anthony said. . “They’ve got all these AI-powered remixes of the song with different voices and different faces, and it’s funny to see where it goes.”
Anthony is not a fan of social media, which makes his success even more amazing.
“People bring their best and worst to the internet. I’ve always tried to stay off social media as much as possible, but I learned very quickly that with Twitter and Facebook and things like that, you see people’s reactions to both in a very positive way and you just can’t get It has a personal conversation, but it’s also very passive. People just use that as an outlet to let out any hate simmering in them and say, “I’m going to get this guy in it.”
