Come, Bobby. Good morning. And welcome to Thursday show. Morning studio. Morning. I have a story here. Netflix's most binge-watched shows of 2018. Like, they don't actually give the numbers, but they tell you the most.

You know what I mean? Okay. Do you care? Yeah. I want to see if I like to find things to binge. And I want to see if I've already binge it. Number five is the bodyguard, which I'm about, four episodes in, I just started working.

I like it. I just haven't seen the end of it yet. Okay, I've seen the end. You have? Okay. Yeah. It's the most binge-to-watch show of 2018. Number five.

Wow. Number four, last chance you, indie. That's football, right? One of those, like, last chance you? Mm-hmm. I dabble in that with my husband, but I don't binge it, per se. I dabble. 13 reasons why, season two is the number three?

I couldn't get into that. I didn't even start. Yeah. But at the end of season one, 13 reasons why I felt old and kind of creepy that I was still watching high school kids. Totally. That was good. But like I'm 38 now.

You know? Yeah. You go live your life, kids. Do you feel old watching that show? I mean, sometimes, because everybody was into it, I felt okay. Like everybody all our age. Like my sister, she's 41. She has kids.

They're teenagers. I know, but she was watching it and then had to like, but also all the kids at my niece's high school were watching it. too, so it's like everybody was watching it. So it felt fine. Yeah, I just, I guess I got into it because of the hype, finished it, enjoyed it, but I couldn't commit to another season of watching high school kids. Yeah.

That's number three. Number two, making a murderer part two, which I didn't start, and I love making a murderer part one. I know. Anyone in the, Eddie, did you watch part two? I have not watched part two. I don't know if I'm going to either. Yeah.

I started episode one and I just couldn't get into it. You know what it is now? Well, those crime drama is docu crimes, they're tough to get into. And then once you're in, you're really into it. So I always give myself a few episodes on those. But there's so many good things out now that you're kind of like, you know, I haven't seen it, having a time because you're watching another good thing. I mean, we're in the greatest age of content because there are all these platforms,

be it networks or Netflix or Hulu, and you don't even have time for all of the A-plus-plus stuff. That's how much good stuff there is. And the number one, it's a show called On My Block. Never even heard of it. The most binge show on Netflix, never heard of On My Block. Anyone else? No, but I'm writing it down. Do we have what it's about?

It's a teenager. Oh, it's a teenager show. Yeah. It's a TV series. On My Block is a coming-of-age television series. I don't know. There's a bunch of people look way younger and cooler than me, living a life that's... What's it about?

Teens in L.A.? Yeah. I'll check it out. I'm living with all of them now doing American Idol, basically. Yeah, there you go. Other ones in the top ten, Orange is the New Black, the new season. The haunting of Hill House, which is that scary.

But yeah, like, I'm not that cool. I've been to watch the office again, watch that whole thing again. But I just do that because it's easy. Like, I don't want to commit to anything. Like, I'm trying to grow. So I just turn the office on. That's the new friends to me, the office.

Oh, yeah. If it's on any time, I just put it on and watch it wherever it is. The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Stories. It's producer Raymoond. No, they're still searching for that Colorado mom that vanished on Thanksgiving Day. Pictures of her are online. Authorities are asking the public to keep an eye out.

In other news, three people that went missing inside a coal mine in West Virginia. They were trying to find copper. They have been found alive. Authorities announced that after a four-day search. So that's awesome news. And finally, in weather news, a lot of severe weather from Texas and Louisiana to Michigan. Careful on those roads, tons of rain, possible hail, and snow. Hey, so since it's Christmas time,

Amy? Clayman Kelly Clarkson Much about you? Eddie? Kelsey Ballerini? It's Kelly Clarkson. Oh, Amy with Amy. What?

All right, one more. You can buzz in if you know it. Okay. Eddie, Lanskel Flasker Flats. Come on. I didn't even have time to put my tin down. Who won? Tie.

Between Eddie and Amy? Do I have any? Now here we go. Sudden death. Between Eddie and Eddie? Eddie and Amy. Buzz in. Amy.

Go ahead? Go ahead. Shoot. Incorrect? I didn't hear any of it. Oh, it's Blake Shelton. No, it's Alan Jackson. Nobody wins.

I'm sorry, everyone. Thank you very much. Our audio producer, Raimundo, who works out of the glass room and is constantly editing all the sounds that you hear. He has an idea for a business. Okay. It's very shark tanky. I'd like to bring him into the studio right now. Our audio producer, Ramundo.

Yes, yes, yes. Thank you guys. Thanks for having me. I'm happy to be here on the shark tank. With all you sharks. I got a crazy good idea. You guys ready for it. He's going right to it, boys.

All right. Well, you always get home and it's a cold house, man. The fire's not on. There's no lights on. It's just a weird feeling, man. Nothing's ready to go. Well, what if there's a guy like me or people that I hire, my corporation?

We go into your house 10 minutes before you get home. We turn on the lights. We're going to turn up the heat. We're also going to turn on the Christmas tree. We're going to turn on some music. We're going to light some candles. That home is going to be ready for you when you get in. So you don't have to spend 20 minutes getting it ready when you get home from work and you're so tired.

We're going to charge $5 and we're going to do that at every house. All I need to do is lock down five houses an hour and easily a week. I'm going to make $100. How do you like my idea? Okay, sorry. Amy, when you, excuse me, if you don't mind me asking charge. When you go home to your house, isn't it cold, dark, lonely? You need some lights on, right?

Yes. What about your Christmas? tree. It's never on, right? Right. If I've been working, yes. With my company, the Christmas tree is already going to be on as well as the outdoor lights. The only catch is, I have to be able to do it in about 10 minutes, so I can't be vacuuming. I'm not going to be doing

dishes, laundry, crazy stuff like that. The simple stuff, I'll take care of. If you want me to leave your door open, I'll do that too. So, what's the company called? We have called ourselves the Christmas Elf Service. So it only goes up to a Christmas then. It's seasonal. We can also do it into the

year if it becomes successful. Would you do it all the time? Absolutely. Yes, yes, yes. So it started with the Christmas tree because most people don't like coming home and not seeing that tree lit up with a star on it. Everything like that. Then we'll move into the next part of the year. Don't people leave their tree on.

Or there's timers you can buy. I'm telling you, that's dangerous. If I do it 10 minutes before, it's going to lead to nothing. One of the only downsizes of my business is that I'm going to have a lot of keys. So I'm going to have to be organized. And I'm also going to have to have to label them properly or else I'm going to lose keys. People are going to get broken because of that. I'm telling

you that the downsides before we get into this business. So wait, what do you need from us? You're pitching it to us. I want some helpers. I need Eddie. I need lunchbox. I need people on the streets. You don't need financial backing. You need people. You're good on money. You just need workers. The money's good. I need the workers. I need you guys to support it. Maybe we talk about it on the show and then it just takes off from there. But let's start at Christmas time and then try and continue it on into the next year. So it seems like you just find workers that can handle like their block full of people. If you want to do five houses an hour, you have to be all in the same neighborhood. Well, can I mention that Ramundo brought the idea once him and lunchbox

we're going to do party organizing? Yeah, party planning. And we did plan one party. One kid was coming for his birthday. His mom hit us up and they had a great time here in Nashville. And you guys organized the whole thing? We organized the whole thing, set up reservations, everything they wanted to do in Nashville. And it was a hit. And how much do you guys make on that? No, that first one was, you have to do proof of concept. So you do the first couple for free and show that you have a viable business. Then you can start charging. Is it viable? Did you do a second one? Yeah, it's very viable. People hit us up all the time when they're coming to Nashville with what they need to do and how we can get them into places and we let them know.

But I mean, have you done a second one? Not particularly. I mean, we've given suggestions. We haven't booked reservations because we didn't get any financial backing from the sharks. So what do you need financially? Because you've got to build a website and websites are expensive to build. And I need someone for like $19. I need someone that can write code and do all the algorithms and all that thing. Ramundo. Yeah. So I'm just pretty. present the idea. Maybe I get some guys that are interested. That's really all I was trying to do.

I would like to say I'm interested in your business because we can start the fire. Like, you don't have to go out in your backyard and get the firewood. We'll put it in your fireplace for you. You're going to start a fire on someone's house at least. Yes. But the only problem is, you've got to charge way more than $5. Yeah, I agree. The gas alone is going to cost us more to get there. So if you want to do more than that, I'm in. But $5, I'm out. I like how Ray and lunchboxes have all these side businesses that never do anything. I really wanted to start small with that amount of money, but then we go to the rich houses,

and we're charging those people $100, $200. That's where we really bring in the big-time money. You need to find them at the rich houses? To come home from work on. The neighborhoods, it's just like Monopoly. When we go to Park Place and Broadway, what is it? Bordwa. Those are our big money ones.

The other people, we're not charging as much because it's simple stuff. Yeah, Baltic Avenue, you're not getting much money for. Okay. I'm going to take myself out of this. Okay. He never wants to support us. I mean, I'll let y'all use my house as like a, test run. I would never let someone come to my house to turn stuff on.

Because I'm going to get robbed. To me, what? And you could get what would really help so you don't lose keys is if people hire you, then you put like a lock pad or like a keypad. Absolutely. And I'm thinking of other stuff right now. As we're talking, the oven. We can turn that on. You always got to wait for $20. We started. If you're delayed, though, call us, let us know. Or that oven's still on. And it's not going to be good.

So then you have to go back. That's what I'm saying. I'm going to light candles too. But if you're not going to be home, you have to. to call the business right away or where I have candles that are lit. I'm out. I'm out. This just got dangerous. Lunchbox? I mean, I've gotten interested. You two go and start this business and let me know. I want to start it in my apartment complex. I've already put some notes on some people's doors and said, hey, I can get everything ready for you. Just let me know. Give me the go ahead.

Well, this shark's out. Amy, that shark's out. I'm out. Lunchbox that minnow, are you in? I'm in. I would like Eddie to be into as well. He has a very nice neighborhood. I'd rather build an app for that. Like, that just doesn't make any sense to me. I'm out. There you have it. Raymondo, thank you for your idea. Yeah! No, we said no. I know, but lunch is in. I got one guy.

But you guys already have a business that's barely surviving. No, it's taken off. It's like a, what do you call it, a rocket ship? That's what you call it, a rocket ship. Wow. Yes. Thank you, Raymondo. Yes.

Okay, and there you have it here. Shark out. Okay, shark out. Minow out. Thanks for your time, sharks. Okay, there it is. Come on, Bobby Bones show. It's time for the good news.

With Amy. Tell me something good. So the children's health. Health Care of Atlanta is fortunate to have two amazing volunteers spend their time there every single week. It's a pair of retired grandfathers who like using their free time to hold sick babies at the hospital. Oh, wow. So these two old men, that's what they do, you know. Oh, come on.

Love it. They volunteer. Yeah, for them. How about that? That's what I thought about right there. I mean, forget that you can volunteer to go just hold babies. I don't know that everybody should, but I do like that something. like these old men. Yes, I like that.

Yeah, that's good. I like that. That's what it's all about. Tell me something good right there. That was Tell Me Something Good. The latest from Nashville and Hollywood. Morgan No. 2's 32nd Skinny. Charles Kelly from Lady Annabellum challenged band member Hillary in the Christmas Challenge. She's never seen a Christmas story, so he said if she watches it and proves it, he will donate $5,000 to a charity of her choice. Thomas Rett says he wants his family's Christmas to be.

more than just gifts in Santa. He wants his kids to understand the true meaning and eventually be serving those less fortunate. Cole Swindell shared that he likes to spend his time off the road cooped up at his place, watching Netflix and doing laundry. I'm Morgan number two. That's your skinny.

The Bobby Bone Show. Bobby Bone Show. Bonehead. Story of the day. This story comes us from Norcross, Georgia. A 34-year-old man walked into a subway, ordered a foot-long sub. He's waiting.

They hand him his sandwich, and then he jumps over the counter and steals all the money out of the cash register runs away. About 10 minutes later, he comes back. Got to get a sub, I bet. Forgot his sandwich. Yeah, I got it too. I was like, I wanted to know, like, what's up with that sub, though? So, then he was arrested. Oh, man, I'm lunchbox.

That's your bone-in story of the day. I was wondering if you got the sandwich in my mind. I was like, what kind of sandwich did you get before? Yeah. Amy, you read this too, where they say you should stop drinking coffee first thing in the morning? Yeah, you can have it in the morning, but an hour after you wake up instead of first thing when you wake up. So what's the deal? Well, they say your cortisol levels, they rise during different times of the day.

And it's like really high an hour after you wake up, which is, I guess, a good time to have caffeine or coffee. And you'll have a better response. For me, and I, you know, a bit I've been drinking coffee. And I kind of am starting to not hate it as much. It's taken a long time for me to acquire this table. though, like months and months. Yeah. Did you, how long it take you to acquire a coffee taste?

I was in college, so I think it was out of necessity at that point because I was doing all-nighters and like people, but I mean, I was drinking the sugary awful stuff. And then, you know, as I got older, I just kept drinking it, but taking less and less and less and less sugar to where I could have it black. I am staying in a hotel right now, but, you know, as we film American Idol. And so I was like, yeah, I'll take a coffee. And I still, I do a lot of cream. I do a lot of sugar. Amy, I ordered a banana yesterday. in this hotel, they cut the banana in half, and they left it in the peel, but they like sliced

it and left in the pill. It was $8. Yeah. For a half of banana. Yeah. You should go out with the gas station. And you can't send it back once you already have like two buy. You want to know the funny thing too is, so I'm in this hotel. What? You want to send it back? I did because I was like $8. I don't want to spend $8 and a half a banana. So I think American Idol, the crew, I think they think I'm more famous than I am because nobody cares about me, right? Especially, nobody cares out here. So they put me under a fake name in the hotel. What is your fake name? I'm not going to tell you.

You can't say that, Amy. Okay. Well, you just said, you could go there under your real name, so. I could. I could come under my real name and nobody would care. So did they think of it or did they ask you what fake name you wanted? No, they didn't ask me. So I'm just going to say, for example, we're going to say my name is Herbie Hancock for the sake of the story. I'm not going to tell you the name they put me under.

The crazy thing is they call me to my room. hotel people and they're like, Mr. Hancock, and I'm always like, you have the wrong number. Oh, yeah, you got to get in character. I never, every time they talk to me, I think they're talking to somebody else. They've called the wrong room. And they're like, Mr. Hancock, we have a, and I'm like, oh, yeah, that's me. That's right. That's right.

I also think it's funny that the American, I don't think, said it's been under a fake name. Yeah, that is weird. I mean, it's weird to me, but I guess it's weird to me. I know. I guess it's weird to all of us, probably. Yeah. Let's not forget. Just a few years ago, we had one tiny room with not even enough microphones to do our radio show.

Oh, I haven't forgotten. You know? Like, for those that listen to this show now, they're like, man, buy a bunch of. They're like, Amy's all like speaking at places and adopting kids and changing the world. And Bobby's on, like, TV shows. Less we forget. We're just some knuckleheads. I met Amy at a Culver's restaurant.

She was offering me a coupon. I was begging to keep a radio show on the air. Like we have we are It's crazy how and so many of our people that listen now I've been with us the whole time and they know And they keep us in check too for sure And they're also very proud It's a it's a cool thing because they definitely

Keep me in check and at the same time it's very cool And you know they're like oh Because I do feel like I'm representing our listeners Because I'm just a dude from Mountain Pine Arkansas But they put me under fake name And every time they call my room I'm like what And then they serve me $8 bananas And I'm like what

So I don't know what Does American Idol pay for that? Do you have like a per diem? Yes. So what a per, kind of. This is what they, I don't know if I can even talk about this, but so you get a, a per diem is money. Like when my band's on tour, if they're not like, Eddie's different. But like everybody else gets a per diem for like a little bit of like.

Right. I mean, this is common everywhere. My husband, he was in the military. If he was somewhere, he had a per diem, like you were allowed X amount of dollars per day. You figure out how you want to spend it. I get a per diem, but they paid me for, not pay me. They paid for travel and hotel up to a certain point. So I have a certain amount of money to spend.

And kind of stay wherever, but if I spend it all up, I'm done. If you spend it all on bananas. Yes, it's like a budget, and I'm running all on bananas right now. So, yeah, that's a thing. But I did have coffee, and I was like, I'm kind of not hating it so much. And then I had an $8 banana, and I was like, this stupid. Speaking of food, food world's coming up with Morgan number two. You guys want to hear?

Numb, num, num, num. Bobby Boom, come on. The head of all of our digital, meaning social media website, is Morgan No. 2, who's 25 years old. Morgan No. 2, how are you today? I'm doing good. How are you? She sits over there quietly. Sometimes she breaks a little bitty smile if we're really funny. Sometimes I'll look at her as like the react, because we're all the same.

We all talk about the same stuff. You know, we come in. We all make each other laugh. But after look at Morgan Number 2's faces, even during the dance party on Fridays, I look at her to see she's that kind of bouncing along. Then you know it's good. Then I know it's good. She's still with a quietly and works on her computer. So did you know that? Do you know how monitor are you?

Yeah, I see your eyes kind of come over the computer screen a little bit. I'm just checking it out. See if she's into it. But she asked me a long time ago if she could do a segment about food. And so here's Morgan No, 2's Food World. It's time for Food World. Numb, Numb, Numb, with Morgan number two. There was a group of chefs that broke the Guinness World record

to make 5,500 pounds of scrambled eggs. Oh, you guys don't like that? That's a lot of eggs. That's a lot of eggs. But what did they do with all the eggs? So, well, they use 35,000 eggs, 950 pounds of butter, 65 gallons of milk, and 22 pounds of salt to create this. And then they fed who? They just did it to break the record.

I'm sure people got fed. They just throw it out. But that's a lot. Do they have like life-sized spatulas, like running around? Like shovels. Like the umpalumpas? Yeah, like that. Yeah, yeah.

Oh, wow, yeah. That's so cool. And now it's cool when you see it, huh? Yeah, it's like a big casserole. How many chefs? There's 20 of them. Wow. And they didn't sell it or anything.

You don't know what happened with the food. Nope. There it is. Oh, yes, yes, yes. They provided for people in need. Oh, good. There you go. Good ending.

My favorite thing about this, too, is when it goes, numb, numb, numb, num. Everybody on the show goes, numb, numb, numb, numb. Morgan number two, thank you. Harry? That was Food World. With Morgan number two. Num, num, num, num, num.

All right, there you go. Thank you, Morgan, number two. This is the Bobby Bones show. Bobby Bones. So Jerry Springer's back on TV. He's 74 years old. Do you know that? Sounds about right.

He's been at this forever. Yeah, 74. He had 27 years of that Jerry Springer show. That's crazy. He will return to TV next fall with a courtroom show called Judge Jerry. He'll hear cases and render a verdict. Do you know on those court shows that you go in, and it's not real court, right? Like, if you go see one of the judges, it's not real court.

What? What do you mean? Judge D.D.D.D.D.D. He's not a real judge. No. She's not administering a real verdict? No. So what happens is they go in and it's already paid for, like whatever. It's paid for? But they give up, they go on TV for it. Oh.

So, no, that's not like court of law. I thought it was a real court. Honestly, because they have the bailiff and everything. They look like they have the typeer person that sits there and types everything out. Yeah, Judge Judy doesn't send people to jail. So it doesn't matter what she says. No. They're not doing criminal cases.

She's the highest paid person on TV. And she's a fake judge? And it's not even real? That show isn't. Those judge shows aren't real. Or they would just take cameras. Are you sure? Yeah.

If you think about it, they never put their hand on the Bible and swear or whatever. There's no jury. Yeah, there's no jury. That's a different kind of case. But Judge Jerry is going to be a show. Wow. And so if you're going on, let's say you're suing me for $1,000. Yeah.

They go ahead and pay the thousand bucks if you lose the case. So they're faking it? No, but it's entertainment more than it is anything. So, Judge... By the way, Lunchbox was on the Jerry Springer show back in the day. Yes, I was. Back in 1998, 1998, my senior year of high school. That's right.

Scandalous Affairs, Part 2. Scandalous Affairs Part 2. And this is true. Lunchbox was 17 years old. He lied to get on Jerry Springer, right? Yes, I lied. I made up a story and said, Jennifer and Derek were dating for about

two years and Kamika and I were dating for two and a half years in Kamika and Derek had been cheating on us with each other and we were all friends and they wanted to take us on the show to reveal this to us. You were all kids though is a crazy thing. Yeah, they were 18 I was 17. Did they have to get your mom's permission? My mom and dad had to sign the little form, the waiver because I was

under the age of 18. They faxed it to us and then in the middle of the night I went to the Kinkos and I faxed it back to them and next day I'm on a plane to Chicago. What up? Were you so cool at your school? Listen, I was already cool up my school, but the school was buzzing. Because Springer was huge back in the day. This was at the height, the pinnacle of Jerry Springer.

I mean, the school, when my episode aired, the school shut down. Here is Lunchbox on Jerry Springer, so when they refer to Dan, that's lunchbox. And you hear it, even 17, he sounds exactly the same. So here you go. So you're about to tell your boyfriend that you haven't been faithful to him. Are you worried about losing him? Yeah, I know he's going to be real mad. Yeah.

Let's bring him out. He knows he... By the way, all this is fake, huh? Oh, we all made it all up, yeah. Like, they're cursing at each other. It's all they're all eye-knows. Oh, the girls slap each other. It's awesome. Okay, and it's all fake.

Yep. He's going to hear something about the relationship. Here is your boyfriend, Dan. Here comes lunchbox. They're laughing because he looks 12. Yes, he does. That's why the crowd's laughing. They're shocked.

When I walk out, they cannot get it together because I am so young-looking. Okay. Crazy audience. All right, hey, calm down. Dan, welcome to show. How long have you been going here with Kamika? About two and a half years?

Two and a half years. She was that 14? That's what I'm saying that. Yes. How old were you when you guys started? How old were you when you started with her? About 15. But obviously there's something wrong in front of Jerry Springer.

And lunchbox lived it. And Jerry came up and shook my hand. What up? Did you get a picture with him? No, no picture. I just got the memories. I got the video. I got the evidence.

I mean, how awful. Awesome is that? Lunchbox, they pay you? No, they just paid for a free trip to Chicago, vacay. And you went up and came back same day? No, two days. I was up there a couple days. Me and Kamika, I saw the city.

But you were cheating. I didn't know that until, right after the show, though, they take you straight to the airport. Oh, they do? Yeah, limo. Well, Jerry Springer back on TV. Lunchbox was once on Jerry Springer, and that's a part of our memory lane here on the Bobby Bone show. If getting a good night's sleep is important to you as it is to me, there's nothing worse than those random nighttime noise. that can keep you awake. Someone snoring nearby or late night road work or the dog in the

backyard next door barking. Listen, the good folks at Bose, feel your pain. I have these. I love these. You know Bose as the leader in noise canceling headphones. Now they've developed a unique innovation that covers irritating nighttime noises in a new way with soothing sounds. All you have to do is choose a preloaded sound of your choice. Put in Bose tiny, snug fitting sleep buds. They're no ordinary sleep buds, by the way. They combine aspects of passive noise reduction with active noise masking. Not only do they block ambient noise from reaching your eardrums, they put out a little general repetitive sounds, both soothing and they're going to knock out some distractions.

The point is you get better sleep with fewer disruptions. I love them. If you want to learn more, go to Bose.com or try them at a Bose store near you. They're both sleep buds. I use them. There's also an alarm inside of them. Also available at Best Buy and Amazon. Are your kids out of school yet, Amy, or no?

No way. They still have school, maybe Monday, and then I think we're done. You think. Man, there's a lot of thinking there. I know. I know. I feel like I should too. But, yeah, I think, I think it's Monday.

And then, you know, next, this is their last semester at this school. Next semester we start this, like, homeschooling program. What does that mean? Well, I'm not. By the way, if you're new to the show, Amy has two kids. They've been in America now for a year. They came from Haiti, and they're learning English and they're really doing well. but again, struggling a bit educationally, right?

Yes. So we're trying to set them up for success, and this one school we'd love for them to go to. They suggested this homeschooling route for a little bit, and then maybe they'll get into this other school. Because they did not, so far, they have not passed the admissions test. Oh, is that what it is? And they have other Haitian friends that go there, and this school is really involved in Haiti. Eddie's kids go there. Like, it would be really...

Well, to the school you can't go to. Yeah, because we can't seem to get in quite yet. of our English. Oh, that's frustrating. Well, what about them not having other kids around all the time? Well, you know, we're going to get them involved in sports, I think, at the school that Eddie's kids are at. I think there's ways where you, you know, like when Team Tebow was in.

Oh, my goodness. Don't compare your kids to Tim Tebow right now. I'm not. But like, when I think of homeschooling, I'm like, well, he was homeschooled and he's won a Heisman trophy. Like, he, and he's sociable. Like, he's fine. So, I mean, and I know other kids that are homeschooled, it's fine.

Like, I think that they'll still interact with other kids, and it'll be great. But we've just been advised by people to really go this route if we're serious, and we're serious. So what are your, okay, I have so many questions about your kids going to homeschool. Are you the teacher? No. Oh, thank goodness. Yeah. No way.

If I didn't work, I would be the teacher because some of my other friends that did this, they were the teacher. And I feel like I could do it. You get the curriculum. You just have to, you know. I don't think you focus well. And I think you can do it because you're very bright, but you have trouble focusing. Even during segments, Amy, sometimes we're talking. And it's just you and I talking and you've checked out.

And you're like doodling on your paper. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I could see that. I could see that happening. And then I feel like it'd be, I'd probably be too fun, you know. That's always my problem with you. You're always a little too fun.

So, yes, no, it's a special little program and there's teachers, but it's one-on-one. Are they nervous about homeschool or do they know yet that it's happening and they're leaving their friends? They know yet they know that something different is happening and they're like, we don't want to be different. But that's just because this is what they've known for the last year. And they're going to move on to something else different, you know, once they go to this next school. So change happens in life. That's what I told them, you know. How do they feel about that adult lecture?

Well, they know change happens because they had to leave, you know, their orphanage. And then I think back to how when my daughter first. came here. Like I thought, oh my gosh, yes, we just got these two kids out of an orphanage in Haiti. We're making their life so great. And one day at breakfast, she just looked at me and she's right up like, she's like, well, you took us. Like, nobody asked us if we wanted to come. And I was like, you know what? You are so right. But now she's a little more comfortable. That attitude kind of has subsided, which everything she was saying was valid. She's right. Like when you adopt an older kid that knows what's going on?

Like, nobody's saying, hey, do you want to go live with this family in America? But. But you're a lot of fun, Amy, like you just said. I know. They didn't tell them their mom's going to be so fun. So, anyway, now that they're here and they feel comfortable, I kind of have to say, I know nobody's asking you if you want to go to this school, but you have to have to have to, because mom said so.

Wow. All that's so interesting to me. Let me mention this real quick while we're, we have the microphones on. We have this contest going on at bobbybones.com. I'd like for you to come to Nashville. We want to fly you down here. I'm doing a concert. It's me and my band, so it's Eddie and myself.

We have a band called The Raging Idiots. And we're going to fly you down. We're going to put you in a hotel. We're going to give you tickets to the show. It's the Raging Idiots, fourth annual million dollar show, presented by the general insurance. And so go to Bobbybones.com. Really easy to get some tickets and try to win it right there.

Bobbyvones.com and boom. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. Man, Christmas is, I mean, it's right around the corner. right? Yeah, it's coming up so fast and I can't even believe it. Like two weeks away or so.

And so there was a break-in at a house and the family and the mom had their nine-year-old kids all presents all wrapped. And so the trooper that was called was like, oh, man, you got robbed. And so what he does is he calls the state trooper outreach program. And it's made up of other troopers and community members that raise money for people in need. And so that's what they did. All of our presents were taken. He called his buddies. they replaced all the presents,

which included things like Pokemon cards. What are Bay Blades? Anybody know? No. And a Lord Voldemont Harry Potter wand. Oh. Replaced that. So thanks to him,

the kid's going to have a very happy Christmas. And, you know, again, these police officers didn't have to create this program and donate their own money to do something like this. So I thought that was pretty cool. So there you go. That's what it's all about right there. That was Tell Me Something Good.

All right. Over to Amy. Let's get that joke in. Morning Corny time. The Morning Corny! What is Santa's favorite place to visit? What is Santa's favorite place to visit? Idaho, ho, ho.

Okay, I'll come. I get me that. Christmas time, you know, giving spirit. The Bobby Bone Show. I don't drink. I've never had a drink of alcohol. And it's not something I come on here all the time. And I'm like, and I don't really do it for moral reasons.

But in case you're new to the show, I've never had to drink because my family all struggles and struggle with alcoholism. My mom died from it in her 40s, drugs and alcohol. My real dad had some issues. He left. And so I have just chosen in my life to not drink because I would drink everything. Because everything I do, I go all the way. I try to win.

I would try to win drinking if that were again. Yeah. So I chose like, you know, five, six years old. I'm just never going to drink. I've never had a drink of alcohol. And so I have a lot of alcohol. in my house. I'm not anti-alcohol. Matter of fact,

if you're not drinking alcohol and we're out, I'm like, hey, what's wrong with you? Why don't you drink? Have a little drink you drink you. You know? Yeah, you don't want anybody acting weird for the sake of you. I don't even say it sometimes. I have fake drinks. So people think I'm drinking. Mock tips. But that being said, why are you oddly wanting to know if I'm going to drink during the holidays? Oh,

oh, well, I just saw a headline that holiday time is when people up consumption. Yeah. Like, that's when they drink the most. So then I thought, hmm, if there's a time that maybe you do finally take your first sip, it'll be, I don't know, over the holidays, because that's when they say a lot of people do it, or when you're really legit, ready to celebrate something.

Because you've, you've teased that sometimes, like, oh, maybe if I get this or accomplish this, maybe I will celebrate with the drink, but then you've ultimately decided that's not the best case. But, you know, I don't know, bigger and bigger things are happening to you. Yeah, but nothing changes. You know, I've learned to, nothing. I'm never going to change. meaning none of the stuff that's happening

is it can change me, like who I am. However, I don't think a big occasion will make me drink the first time because I'll want, I think if I go, you know what, I finally want to see what, I kind of just want to beat it and go, I can drink and not be consumed by it, right? I feel like there is totally that aspect.

Yes. Like, there's that part of it where me where it goes, you know what, I could probably do it. So you would do it alone? I would do it alone and like test it out. Maybe have somebody I trusted around me and we would just drink and see what happened. And I wouldn't do it the first,

because Amy, if I do it the first time, and then I'm out, I'm out peeing on people. And, you know, I'm like, woo. Yeah, you need someone with you. Yeah, I'm butt-necked. But you can have one. You could, if you wanted to show that you could be okay with it, then you have.

What's the use of having one? That doesn't make sense. It's like, no, you feel, you feel chill. If you have one. That's not my, that's how I live any part of my life. I don't have one cookie. I don't, I do one set of bench press. I don't have one drink of alcohol.

I get it. One cookie's hard for me too, but I can have one glass of wine. Okay, I can't. I have any one bottle of wine. Well, you would be passed out. Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. Because you weigh like nothing right off. And you have no tolerance.

No, I put on a little weight. I'm kind of gooey right now. Goody? I'm kind of soft yet. Yeah, right. No, I was looking into picture you post the other day. You're just getting, you know, you're used to you being like super duper skinny to where you think you've put on weight right now, which maybe you have.

But like the Bobby we have known all these years you weren't the small. My belly is kind of going Oh my gosh It is I'm just being honest with you If I can't have a safe place here No you can't have a safe place I'm just

I'm just letting you know You look fine You're not gooey I feel gooey I can't wear 30s anymore What 29th I know I'm being serious I was in 30s for a while

On dancing So now you have to wear 31 Now I'm at 31 32 You know Living life I'm gonna get back into it After Christmas Get back in shape

You know Got some gym some stuff I'm going to start doing at some gyms, you know what I mean? You got to get built. What? You're going to be like a gym model? Don't worry about that. I'll tell you about that later.

All right. Well, that's like another conversation. Okay, what are we going to do here? How about, we'll come back in a minute. What? What are you laughing at me? Well, now we're all looking at each other. I'm wondering what you're doing with gyms.

Like, you're going to start teaching dance? No, I'm going to open up gyms. You know this. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry. See, that's what I'm saying. Sorry. I'm trying to derail the whole thing.

to be a spokesperson for their new dance classes. No, but I was trying to you already knew this. I was like, we'll talk about it off the air. And then I tell you, after we spend a minute on the show, then you're like, oh, yeah, yeah. Don't be stupid. We already knew that. I'm like, I know. Okay. Can I mean? Thank you. I want to come back.

Does that mean you get to go to the gym for free? Oh, my goodness. It's a Bobby Bones show. You like that dumpling on Netflix, huh? Yes. I mean, it is so cute. And something stuck with me from that movie that I didn't realize

at the time it was going to stick with me and like impact me and my family and my kids. So that's the Dolly Parton movie. Is she in it or she write it or what? How does she involve? Her music is in it. She did the soundtrack and then the characters in it are obsessed with Dolly. Okay. And they quote her and

just she's just awesome. But one of the quotes in the movie, I'm not saying this is a dolly quote, but they were talking about getting ice cream or some sort of sweet thing and they were like, you know, we only do it on Mondays though because Fridays don't deserve all the attention. And I was like, that's so true. Like even when my household, like anything fun, I tell my kids, we have to reserve it for Friday or wait until the weekend. And I'm like, why am I living this way? So, you know what? I gave my kids ice cream last night. Not even Friday. Normally that is something that is reserved for the weekends. They know it

And they always, they can choose which day the weekend they want it. But they choose Friday because obviously it's like the first day they get it. And I said to them, I said, you know why? Because Fridays don't deserve all the attention. And I don't think they really understood that. But I love being able to say that to them. And I love being like that Dumplin encouraged me to be a little wild. Oh, wow.

Dumplin. Yes. Dolly Barton, the movie on Netflix. Like, yes. I'll tell you why Friday gets all the attention for me. And why generally, for me, it's my Lucky Charms theory. It's like, you have to work. And at the end of all the work, you get to actually celebrate with like, yeah, you did good.

Yeah, I know. But it was. Like you've earned it. Like you've earned, like you did all this work and now you finally get your paycheck because you just had a whole week's worth of work. Yeah. So is it bad I did that? No, no, no.

Okay. But I'm saying, that's why I live by that. But my whole thing that I wrote in my last book about Lucky Charms is when I eat a bowl of Lucky Charms, I'm nuts because I eat all of the crappy ones first. All of the grain ones first. I will eat every piece of grain. And then I just have all my marshmallows. And I felt like I just earned all those marshmallows.

And so then eat all the marshmallows by themselves. Now, you can live your life that way, and it's very unsafe. It's not healthy. I live like that. I feel like I'm living that way on a whole life scale. Like, if I've been working so hard at this point, when I'm like, though, later on my life, I'm really going to celebrate. And I haven't, though.

I still haven't had my life marshmallows. Yeah. But I got to start eating marshmallows at some point. Yeah. Like on a Tuesday, like Dolly says. I know. because Fridays don't deserve all the attention. But you like that movie, huh?

I mean, it's adorable. I told you I watched my dad and now I'm hopefully get to watch it with my daughter this weekend. And I just, Netflix has got some good stuff. At first I was like, oh, what is this going to be sort of cheesy? But it's awesome. Amy, how do you feel about people that believe in the zodiac stuff, the zodiac signs? Like really into it? I mean, like astrology?

Yeah, like, yeah, yeah, yeah. that are like, oh, for sure, let me guess, you're a Capricorn. I'm like, no. Yeah, I have friends that say that to me regarding certain things. They're like, oh, yes, you're a Pisces. I get now why we connect or whatever. And I'm like, don't you roll your eyes a little bit. I mean, I try to like take in what they're saying, but.

But, yeah, I'm not into it. But then you know. Morgan number two's into it. Oh, really? Yeah. Okay. She's all, right? Aren't you all Zodiaci?

Yeah, I love the zodiac signs. I like to read my sign every day and see how my day's going to go. But is it accurate? Yeah, it's accurate. Yeah, because it's wide open. They're like, today you'll have oxygen will be in your day. Well, yeah, no crap, I got to breathe. Sweet.

Yeah, but she has a whole list. She was pitching me this segment, and we'll do it now. It was like Christmas movies you should watch based on your zodiac sign. And we could put the whole thing up at bobbybones.com because I don't want to go through every zodiac sign. Can we do ours? Yeah, go ahead, Amy. Okay, mine's Pisces. Okay, so you should watch the Polar Express.

By the way, a total Pisces move to go first. Is it? Got her. Amy, I have no idea. I don't know. I have no idea. I'm an Aries. Bobby's an Aries.

All right, you should watch the last holiday. Ooh, that's good. See, I want to watch yours. I don't want to watch Pollard for us. What's the last holiday? Is that the one with Cameron Diaz or I have to Google it, but I know that it's good. Yeah. Eddie, what are you?

He doesn't even know. That's such a Virgo thing to do does not really know what you are. You know? Last holiday is with Queen Latifah, not Cameron Diaz. Oh. You know what? I'm like going to watch either one of them. It doesn't matter.

Folks, it's your buddy and my Mr. Bobby Bones. Did you ever watch Nick at Night before it was the newer 90 shows? Yes, with my mom. Like super classic shows? Yes. So, okay, I did two. Mm-hmm. Because TV land used to be all classics.

Nick and I used to kind of be classics. But I watched some of those shows, I would watch like Patty Duke. Yes. They look alike and talk alike, times they even walk alike. Anybody know that song? Yes. Nope. No.

Like Dobie Gillis. That one sounds like the facts of life. Kind of. Okay. But I just maybe didn't sing it as good. Okay. I'm going to play an old-school TV theme song. Just name the TV show.

Okay. We'll go around. Amy, you're first. Ready? Name this TV show. show, this old school. Sound familiar? Yes.

Masch, yeah. But, I mean, I already said I didn't know. Why did I picture Mash as being a little bit more like, I don't know. No, it's very somber. Some sort of upbeatness to it. I know you're at war, but. Yeah. But, I mean, not upbeat, like, happy, but like more energy.

Can't start to feel it. Wait, it was weird because it was a comedy, right? Yes, it was. But then they would have real sad moments. Yeah, this is us. Yeah, not a comedy. You guys have watched Mash? Yeah, a bit, sure.

I feel the same about you. I was just talking about you before you called. See? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, see? Hey, thank you for the call. Appreciate that. A lot of people are asking with the holidays coming up, Amy, how your kids are.

They're doing great. Yeah? What's up with Christmas, do you? You don't want to say, or you do want to say? Like what we're doing? Like what do they ask for for gifts? Oh, my son wants one of those cars you can get into and drive. Like a mini. Carola? Like a corolla?

No. Like a power wheel. Yeah, those kids that get in the little cars because his friend, like he played in Austin. His friend has one. But that friend's like five. My son's like eight. But I mean, he's small enough, I think, to still fit in one. Yeah, so he wants that.

He wants that. My daughter wants, what did she say? Oh, she just keeps talking about her birthday party. She wants her next birthday party to be at a roller skating rinks. But now since she knows it's Jesus's birthday, we can have it then. Oh, so she wants to have Jesus' birthday party at a roller skating rink. Yes. Oh.

You know that's tough? Well, I mean, we could do it. On Christmas Day, though? Oh, yeah, probably not Christmas Day, but we could still find a place to go roller skate around Christmas time. What are you going to do for Christmas? We're going to Colorado. They're going to freeze. Yeah, and so they're Haitian.

Yeah. Do they hate the cold weather? They do not like cold. I see their attitude start to shift. And I feel bad because, I mean, they're just uncomfortable and it comes out in other ways. And so I've just got to, I'm shopping online to try to find them like the warmest little burrito-type suits to wrap them up in. Because, I mean, we want to take them to go, like, you know, sledding and get in the snow and do all the things. Well, before they came here a year ago, they probably never experienced cold weather at all their whole life.

No. They had never left. I mean, Haiti, they were in like 80, 90 degree humidity. Can you imagine? That'd be like us moving to Alaska. Brutal. And that was our new reality. Or Canada. Yeah. And Canada does get kind of warm there, but.

Or even like some of our Boston listeners, like we're whims and we go up there sometimes and it's winter. And they're like, oh, come on, this is nothing. Like your body just gets so. But they never ever experienced cold weather at all. Exactly. We're in Boston. They do get warm weather.

Okay, true. True. Like they're in Haiti and all of a sudden it's like... So what's up with Christmas? Do they have Christmas at the orphanage? Yeah. They did? Yeah, they know Christmas and, you know, churches and different groups would bring gifts.

Santa would even come by. Oh, yeah? If there was teams visiting. Anytime I went to visit was around Christmas time and, yeah, they know all about Christmas. Hey, Brooke in Missouri, how are you? Hi, good. How are you? Good.

What's happening? Nothing. I'm just sending in traffic on my way to work. I appreciate you calling. What can I do for you? I just heard you say call in and I figured I'd give the shot. This is so crazy. Hey, hey, it's done, too.

Come on. She's giving it a shot here. Go ahead. What would you like to say? I just wanted to thank you all. You are just so great. Each and every one of you. I know you kind of know how big of an impact you make, but honestly, it's incredible

the good that you guys brings people's lives. So thank you all. We appreciate that. And thank you for calling us on your way to work and hope you have a good day at work. And we may not talk again before Christmas, Brooke. Let's be honest. so I hope you have a great, happy Merry Christmas. Oh, my God.

Merry Christmas to you all, too. Thank you. And we may not talk before New Year, so I hope you have a happy New Year. Well, you might talk before then. Okay, we might. There's she. All right. Here's Amy's pile of stories.

So, Bobby, I saw this thing that was like a personality questionnaire thing that you should do on first dates, but I thought I would ask you the question, and, you know, we could all get to know you a little better. Okay. And people could, like, write these down and prep for maybe they've got a date coming up this weekend or like a Christmas date and they need stuff to talk about. Okay, go ahead.

Okay. So what was the best part of your day? Uh, today? That's early, man. Well, what this kind of question does is it gives you a chance to see what little things stick out to this person in their life. Yes. Okay, today, the best part of my day.

Usually when the show actually starts. Oh, really? That's the best part of your day? Well, so far it is because... Talking to us? Yeah, because, well, it's, first of all, we're still in the middle of the show. Yeah. It's the first part of my day.

of my day, but I spend so much time waking up. I don't like waking up. I wake up so early in the morning, like three in the morning. And then I'm preparing for the show alone in my house. And then I come to the building and I cut commercials and liners. So by the time the show starts, I've put in a couple hours already, and I'm just kind of ready to like smile and be creative. And like, you know what I mean? So that's the best part of my day is when the show finally starts. Okay. I like it when it ends too. But I like I like it when it starts though, too. Yeah, what else? So what were you for Halloween this year? I did a dance

I'm glad you asked me because I don't know if you know my new date but I was on Dancing with the Stars I know Baller and so I was Mr. Sandman and I was

I did a dance I did the Argentine Tango Oh wow okay as Mr. Sandman Thank you for asking though So the reason why this is a good question is because it shows you what kind of personality

have if they're playful Were they single during Halloween because was it a couple's costume stuff like that? No I don't know about Was I single during Halloween? I mean I guess Oh, good question.

You were holding hands with someone. Okay, fair enough. Okay, what's your go-to karaoke song? Gang's Paradise from Culeo. Okay. That's a good. Good answer. Yeah, because I know it.

Hold on. Let me bring in Morgan number two, our young correspondent here on the show. When you hear that song, Gangs is Paradise, Morgan number two, at 25 years old, do you think, what an old person's song? Yeah, I mean, it doesn't, like, resonate with me anywhere in my memory, so a little bit, yeah. Ah, crap. I do Everything is Awesome from Tegan and Marie. Yeah.

Or something like Sarah. Everything is awesome. Yeah, what about that one? I don't even know that one. You need to say, like, in the trendy, like, top songs of all time, then you'd be good. Okay, Love Shack. I do Love Shack. There you go.

You got a good one. Or I do Post Malone, Psycho. Ooh. Psycho. What else? Go ahead. Okay. Lastly, Mountains?

or beach. You know, I had a girl asked me this recently. Really? Yeah, because she was trying to fill me out. I wonder if she read this little thing I read. She was like, where would you rather be mountains or beach? And I was like, you know what? I don't care.

Really? No, that's what I said. Honestly, because I don't care, because I'm not really a love of either one of them. I said, I would be either one of them with somebody I was having fun with. They're both cool. Or if I'm alone, because I've been mountains by myself and beach by myself, and they both kind of suck when you're by yourself. So I was like, it doesn't really matter to me.

Surf or ski? Never done out of them. That's from Jerry McGuire. Oh, yeah. He's like, I'll either sailor. I like warm better than cold, though. Okay. Yeah.

All right. So now we know that about you. Okay, so ladies, if you find yourself being propositioned a little bit more lately, well, it could be because of the color you're wearing this time of year, which is red. Men are so attracted to red that women who are wearing it during the holiday season, they get talked to more simply because of the color. Yeah, I love red. But I wear red all the time.

Yeah, it's said here. Men are 56% more likely to ask a woman out if she's wearing red. So if you're single, I don't know. And Bobby, you're red. I read all the time. Nobody asked me crap. This is for the ladies, though. Oh, wow.

I wear red all the time. It's not favorite color by far. Do you get asked out by men? Yeah, I wish. I'll take anything at this point. Go ahead. Okay, well, vegan food options could be taking over because it's, you know, things kind of tend to start in California

and then they make their way. They either start in L.A. or New York and then we see it happen elsewhere. But there can be a law pass soon that requires movie theaters, sports stadiums, the zoo airports to have vegan options. By law. I don't know if by law is the right thing, but I think

people will be smart to do that because you're cutting a big audience out if you're not catering to people who are vegan. Yeah. So I'm not a vegan, but I get it. I'm like 85%. Then you're not a vegan. That doesn't count. But I live most of my life vegan.

Okay, great. You're still not a vegan. The Bobby Bone Show. Tomorrow show will be good. Mitchell Ten Penny is going to come in and sing. He's got the number one song, He's got the number one song, Drunk Me right now. Lindsay L. and Brantley Gilbert have a song together,

which is cool. It's really good. Yeah. And so good for them. They're coming in. We'll do that song. We'll do dance party. Friday be a big show.

What's up today? Anything? No. I mean, nothing. out of the usual, you? Yeah. It's my last day of taping American Idol.

For now. Well, last day for like now. Yeah. And then I have to get on an airplane and fly to South Carolina because I start dancing with the stars tour next Saturday, I think. So, I'll be, tomorrow would do the show

and then I get on an airplane immediately and fly to South Carolina and do, and I've been so sick, I've been old to practice. So, but yeah, we care. Listen, what do they want for me? I mean, it's fine. I already won. Like I said, I could show up and do the.

I do the Wattuces. And be like, what do you got to think about that? I got the trophy. The Texas Two Step. Yeah. Yeah. But, I mean, I'm going to try as hard as I can. I don't even, I have no idea how tickets are going for that Dancing with the Star's

Tour. And I don't make any money. Like, I really don't make any money anyway. Like, they pay me. But I haven't, you know. It's not a thing where I don't care about ticket sales. But I hope people come because I hope my people come because I don't want to get booed. I'm being honest with you.

Like, I'm worried, because I was so divisive. on that show because I wasn't the typical great dancer. And so if you're in Columbia, South Carolina, or Augusta, Georgia, or I'm gonna be in Alabama. Birmingham. Yeah. Like, I don't even know how much tickets are

of this stuff, right? But if you come and you want to watch, first of all, it's cool to watch them dance because even I got kind of got into it. I was like, wow, they're really good. Secondly, just cheer for your boy. You know what I mean? Like, I'm out. Just go crazy. Like, stand up, hoot and holler. Because they're all for like L.A. and like foreign. And they don't, they don't know.

Is anybody, is Mike D going with you? Is anybody going with you? No. Because I'm asleep on a tour bus. Like I'm just touring with the dancers. I like the dancers, though. Like the people from the show, I made some friends that are dancers too. So I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Like Sasha and Emma, there are two people from the show. You may not know that from me just saying that. But Sasha is a dude. He danced with, I think, Mary Lou Retton. And then Emma is a female dancer who dance with John Schen. Schneider, she's blonde, but they're married and they're not my favorite people. So I like, I want to see them. And like the dude who dance with Alexis, and I don't really know Alexis that well.

We didn't, you know. But they broke up. Yeah, they broke up. But he's like, I like him a lot. And he's Alan. And he's an idiot. Like, I'm an idiot. But I like him a lot. So I'm looking forward to seeing those people. And I want people like, when I come out, I just start screaming. And they'll be like, wow. Because, I mean, I'm afraid I'm going to get booed. I'm just going to be honest with you. I am. I'm going to walk out.

They're going to boo me. It's going to be brutal. Okay. I'll see if I can send some of my family in Birmingham. Please have them come out. We're going to go. Have a wonderful day.

I'm going to go tape idle and Amy's going to, I don't know what she said she's going to do. You said nothing. The day is my oyster. The day is your oyster. You sound like lunchbox. I'll see you tomorrow. Thank you everybody. Bye.
