There’s a chance we might be seeing less of LUKE COMBS in the future. He’s not going away, but he IS seriously thinking about dropping a few pounds. Being a father for the first time makes you think about stuff like that. “This having a kid thing has really messed my head up [in] the best way, which is like ‘Whoa, a second.’ It’s like, I want to be around. ‘Do you know what I mean?’ I’m fine now, my cholesterol and blood pressure is fine because I’m a younger guy. But by the time I’m 45, it’s going to be [different].” Luke was born a big guy, it’s been a lifetime issue for him. I’m not trying to say it’s not my fault because it is in a lot of ways. But also, I got to this point where I’m like, man, I’d really love to trim down. And it’s so hard for me to do that.”
