Join Wes in his studio for his first in-person interview! He chats with TNT: Tatum Noelle Tankersley, his 10-year old daughter about what success is and what it means to her. This interview helps Wes figure out camera angles and other set-up for future in-person interviews.
Tatum thinks her Dad is famous because he has a podcast. She believes that anyone that has a podcast is famous. How many podcasters does she know anyway? Only her Dad! Well, Wes is famous to us!
Wes and Tatum have a fun back-and-forth banter teasing each other. Wes asks Tatum a series of questions and comments she changes her mind like changing underwear.
The subject of vegetables comes up. What vegetables does Tatum like? She likes her Mom’s broccoli. Wes doesn’t like green vegetables, but he does like a product called Magic Mind. It comes in a little bottle, and is a green liquid that tastes good, gives you energy, and helps with mental focus. It’s better than coffee since caffeine is not good for you. Visit www.magicmind.com for more information. Check them out on Instagram at www.instagram.com/magicmind.
Tatum says her Dad makes money from his podcast. She points out he sells sweatshirts, t-shirts, hats, and stickers. He’s famous! Wes asks her what his podcast is about. She says it’s about talking to people. After back-and-forth prodding by her Dad, she says something involving success. He asks her what does success mean? She says people shouldn’t brag about it. Wes has said in the past that if you’re good at something, you shouldn’t have to talk about it. Just do it! Tatum has listened.
What is Tatum’s definition of success? It is winning because when you win you try harder to get better. Wes tells her his definition which is no matter what you do, do the best you can no matter what.
Is Tatum a good student? According to her, she mostly works hard but gets easily distracted. She is in the 4th grade taking Spanish, Reading, History, Computers, Math, Art, and Phys Ed. Her favorite subject is Art. Her favorite thing to draw is people.
She and Wes discuss why she likes art and hates math. She practices art but doesn’t practice math. If she practices math more, she might like it more.
Tatum wants to talk about her little brother, Nolan. Her favorite thing about her brother? He’s squishy! Her least favorite? He screams, hits, bites, and listens to songs like Baby Shark.
Tatum has a list of what she wants to be when she grows up. She wants to be a director, singer, teacher, author, and illustrator. Her Dad asks what does she have to do to make that happen? Practice! She helps her friend who writes. She listens to a lot of music and sings along mostly in the shower.
One thing Tatum has is confidence! It’s clear she retains what her Dad tells her and it’s reflected in her answers.
