Welcome to Friday show.
Good morning.
Morning.
Eric, Passley in today.
Also, we'll do the dance party.
Hey, Megan in South Carolina.
Hey, Bobby, good morning.
Good morning.
You like the dance party or no?
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah, so Friday mornings, my kiddos who hate mornings, get up and start dancing, and they are ready to go.
We have to have a dance party before we leave.
I love that.
What kind of music do you like the most on the dance party?
Because, you know, I often flip formats.
So last Friday, my two-year-old heard shake it off and popped up out the bed real quick.
I like everything.
You know, I love country, but I'll listen to just about anything.
But, you know, I'm an 80s baby.
So the late, I say 90s.
Late 90s is probably where it's that gets them going, but I listen to everything.
Yeah, I mean, you know what?
You're pretty normal.
I mean, you know, there's this thing called a format, and I get it.
But I'm not a big believer that.
everybody only listens to one kind of music.
So I appreciate the call.
And tell your kids, I say good morning,
and we'll get something going for them, good, okay?
Absolutely.
And hey, Bobby, today's my birthday.
What?
What's the big plan for today?
Work.
I'm going to work.
Nothing says birthday like that.
A good day of hard work, Megan.
Thank you.
Hope you get a cupcake or something.
Happy birthday from all of us.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Bye-bye.
Okay, so we'll do that.
We'll do that coming up.
Dance party coming up.
Appreciate you, by the way.
You, you, you.
And Eric passed late.
Today would be a good day.
Recognizing people doing cool things.
It's ICU.
This guy in Idaho, he's trying to raise $1,500 by running for 48 hours straight.
Is that even possible?
Ben Blessing plans to use the proceeds that he raises from the race to help two schools in Idaho so they can install a buddy bench.
The bench is intended for children who might be in a situation that if they're lonely, they go sit on the bench and other kids see it and they go sit with them and maybe they're not lonely anymore.
So far he's raised $1,300 of his goal.
I'm just going to say this.
First of all, that's crazy and awesome,
but for 48 hours,
you better be getting more than $1,500 bucks.
And I think, because it's a new story
that'll be happening to.
So shout out to this guy in Idaho,
making a difference.
I see you, Ben Blessing.
I see you.
The Bobby Bone Show.
Big three stories.
It's producer Raymond in San Antonio
Firecrues rescued an 18-year-old
high school student who got stuck
in a cave during a field trip.
She was trapped more than 10 hours in a very narrow area called The Hole in the Floor.
Luckily, rescuers chipped away at the rock and got to her.
In other news, the U.S. has issued a travel warning for the popular Mexican tourist city, Plydele Carmen.
There's been security threat, so there's definitely a threat there.
Do not go for spring break.
And finally, March Madness is right around the corner.
Sunday is Selection Sunday.
They're going to reveal the 68 teams that have made the bracket.
Lee and Pittsburgh is on now.
Lee.
Good morning.
Thanks for calling.
What's going on?
I was calling because when I turned 31 last year, or 30, I'm sorry, I turned 30 last year and I was a little nervous.
So to make it a little bit more fun, I decided that I was going to do 30 new things and things that I wouldn't normally do or try.
And I am turning 31 on Sunday, and I still have five more things.
So I was able to get on and I'm crossing two things off the list.
I'm on the radio.
and I'm talking to a celebrity.
Hey!
Yay!
Well, you're on the radio for sure.
You know, I like to consider myself
more regionally known
in certain rural areas
than being a celebrity,
but whatever makes sure...
No way.
I count it.
You're slack.
Hey, I'm coming to Pittsburgh.
You're going to come?
I would, except we're actually moving,
so I won't be in the area
when you're coming.
Man, you should have come back.
It's going to be that awesome.
I'm going to do my stand-up show on Pittsburgh.
Bobbybonescom.
com, if you want to come.
Where are you moving to, Lee?
We're moving to Austin.
Oh, you're going to love it there.
Oh, yeah.
Come on.
Yes.
You know.
I'm very excited.
Jealous.
I mean, Amy born and raised there, so was lunchbox.
I lived there for 13 years.
Yeah.
Goodbye winter.
Goodbye winter, my old friend.
Yeah.
You're going to love it.
And glad you can fit this call in, Lee.
Thanks for calling us this morning.
Oh, thank you guys.
I appreciate you guys so much.
Oh, and here for your birthday.
I give you an official.
I appreciate you.
Appreciate you.
Thank you.
Bye, late.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye, bye, bye.
An elementary school in Denver implemented, oh, I saw this on the news.
They were doing yoga for detention instead of detention.
What?
In elementary school?
Yeah, when I was there, I saw it on the news.
So instead of sitting at a desk, disruptive and disobedient students attend a yoga class.
That's usually 30 minutes to an hour.
They're seeing positive results from students.
I knew that.
They had a reporter doing it live and all the kids were like, what's happening?
Oh, the Troublemaker kids?
They were like, okay, downward dog.
And they were like, man, what is this?
That's kind of cool.
Yeah, especially if you don't have to do homework.
Yeah.
That's forward thinking of that school.
I think more schools need to get on board.
We'll see if it works first.
I would say don't all get on board until we find out if there's a reason to.
Oh, well, they do it at my kids school for, and they're at a special school with kids that have experienced trauma or anything that, you know.
These are just test shooters.
This is detention.
Yeah.
I get it.
Punishment.
I get it, but I think it can calm you.
Yeah.
I'd rather do that and go to jail.
It can't happen.
They're acting up because they don't know.
Grand larceny, I send it to 14 yoga sessions at Hot Yoga Plus.
Okay, your honor.
Yeah.
Bobby bones.
The Bobby Bones.
Time for the positivity.
A little tell me something good now.
There's a couple named Alex and Priscilla.
They just got married and they said, hey, listen, we're fortunate.
We had the money to get married.
They paid for 10 other couples.
couples to get married and pay for their weddings.
The lucky beneficiary exchange vows and all in $46,000 they paid for these other couples to get married.
They said, hey, we had people pay for our wedding.
We have some money.
We want to help out.
So they did.
So every year they're going to do this, apparently.
What?
Every year?
Until they go broke.
Wow.
Yeah, no, it's nice.
That's nice.
Lunchbox, what do you have?
Meter maids, everybody's mad when you see them.
Oh, I didn't pay the meter and they write you a ticket.
Well, this meter maid is a hero.
She's out on her job, giving out tickets for people.
and she looks and she sees a three-year-old girl climbing out the fifth-story window of an apartment.
She runs underneath and she catches the three-year-old as the three-year-old falls.
Yeah.
I saw that.
That's crazy.
She says, hey, I guess softball paid off.
Wow.
I mean, but a hero, I can catch a baby from five stories.
That's a no.
She's a hero.
You tried to catch a baby from three stories and you dropped the baby doll.
I review the tape.
We have many times.
Amy?
So there's this one.
waitress at a Waffle House. She's only
18 years old. She works there
to save up for college. And
there's this elderly man that comes in
for a meal. He recently got out of the hospital
and couldn't cut up his food. So she
sat down and cut up his food for him
and there's a photo of it. It's totally gone viral
and now the mayor of the town is honoring
her. I saw it on Reddit right when it happened because
I read it or posted it. And they told the story
because he came in an oxygen tank and he was like, hey, my arms aren't
working and she just, all she does is cut the meat up
and someone took the picture of it. She didn't know. He didn't
know?
Yeah.
And the next thing you know, it was the thing.
The Bobby Bones show, Bobby Bones.
So really rich people are considering, and some are, getting young blood because doctors say
that it's the founding of youth, that if you're old and you get blood from someone between
the ages of 18 and 34, that it, your longevity.
Yeah.
Heard that.
You know what they're paying?
$285,000 a year for the year's blood.
Wow.
And it gets infused into their systems.
To donate, I look this up, it's only $750 a month that you get to donate blood.
If you're young, that's a good way to make some extra cash.
Yeah, well, they're paying $285,000 for it.
Somebody's making a lot of money in the middle.
Doesn't add up.
Like, that middle man making.
I wonder if you know when you're donating where your blood's going.
And how do you know they're not lying to you?
You're actually not getting Harold's blood from across the hall.
He's also 100.
Exactly.
I want to know it's coming from a brand new baby.
Dang, that's so hard.
Wow.
Newborn blood.
Dang, Amy.
Well, for that much, I want to stay really young.
That's crazy. They really do this.
There was an episode of Silicon Valley about this.
Yeah, I know.
And so I looked it up, and there are some startup companies in California that really do do this.
That is so weird.
It's kind of sketch, though, because they do it in a way to avoid FDA regulations.
But all people are taking young blood, and they're living longer lives supposedly.
Supposedly.
I saw your boy Ari from The Bachelor still talking lunchbox.
Yeah, he said he was going to lay low, but dudes everywhere.
Well, no, he has to contractually do press after the show.
Oh, I know they were going to go on vacation to get away and just have time to themselves.
They may, but you have to contractually go do all the press as part of the contract.
But what he said is he feels like he was edited badly in last weekend.
Just generally, he's a good dude.
He was edited badly.
He is a good dude.
I don't understand what he did wrong.
He proposed.
He realized he made a mistake.
People break up with people all the time and go back to their ex.
I agree with that too.
And you're also putting this environment that's not.
normal. All of a sudden you're saying, hey, here's, you know, 20 women go to town. Yeah, they're all
hot. And then you're supposed to pick one and stay with her after these, you know, 30-minute
dream dates over a four-week period. It's just not an environment that is great for long
love. Right. It's a competition. You know, the producer like, propose to somebody. And he's like,
uh, uh, I pick that one. The dog care one. Here's a shot of tequila. Go propose. Yeah. So, yeah, I don't
hit him for that but here's the thing about editing and having done some reality stuff myself and haven't
even produced a couple things is that you can't edit anything that didn't happen so they can edit you
but if you don't give them the material it doesn't even exist but you can take it from another place
yeah can it be out of context yeah but if you don't do it like i'm telling you there's a reality show
that i've done a couple episodes for now that isn't out yet it won't come out till later and i am so
careful about what I do to think how can they take
all this and put it in a different context.
So you can,
that's not the announcement, by the way.
I'm not leading into the announcement in any way.
The big announcement's Monday at 8-7 Central.
Who's excited for this one?
Lunchbox knows it. Mike D.
knows it. One listener knows it.
I don't care anymore.
Can we ask a question for sure?
Yeah, go ahead, go ahead. Ask a question about Monday's. Big announcement.
Come on, Amy. Go ahead.
Okay. Okay. It does this.
Thank you for asking, but I will not be answering.
I will not be answering any.
That's so rude. That's so rude. I was trying to be carefully phrased my question.
I'm not going to answer it, but go ahead.
Well, does it, like, you being on American Idol, that doesn't really directly affect us on the show, but like, does this?
Yes. It does.
Yes, it does. I'm done.
And it's huge. Lunchbox. Do you want to grab lunch after this?
What are you going to do? Figure out your next.
Grab a few drinks. You're weird. Hang out.
It does. You're going to try to get it.
Oh, I'll get it out of him.
No, you won't. Monday morning, big announcement. Monday morning.
This story of the day.
This story comes to us from Alexandria, Virginia.
A 30-year-old man was driving a stolen car.
Police tried to pull him over.
He tries to run.
Fleeing, going through the neighborhood, comes to a dead end.
It's like, oh, no, I've got to jump out of the car.
He doesn't put it in part.
He jumps out, and as he's fleeing, he runs in front of the vehicle and gets run over by
the car.
They die?
No, no, he didn't die.
He got arrested.
It's kind of a bonehead move, huh?
Yeah.
Obviously.
He's probably like, feats don't film, we know, boom, oh!
Great video.
He probably was under the influence of something.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
They say he was drinking.
Let's just like, hey, most of them are.
We don't need to say that.
I'm lunchbox.
That's your bonnet story of the day.
The Bobby Bono show.
Hey, Carissa.
Hey.
Good morning.
What can I do for you?
Good morning.
So, well, first off, long time with my first-time caller.
Yay.
So I know that this is a time of year where some people get real excited and some people really dread it.
And I know one of those people that definitely gets excited this time of the year is lunchbox.
Oh, what are you talking about?
Because tax has come back.
It's tax time.
Yeah.
So I was just wondering, hey, lunchbox, so have you filed for your taxes here?
It's a good question.
No, I have not.
I need to get my W-2 from work.
They sent it to us like a month ago.
I have mine.
Oh, you guys do?
Yeah, it came right in the email.
Oh, I'm going to get on that.
What happens is the last five years or so,
lunchbox comes in with some astronomical number of a refund.
In the past, it's been $9,000, $10,000, even $11,000.
Biggest refund you've got in the past five years?
I think it was $12,600.
I don't know how you get to refund that big,
but if you are getting it, and it is legit,
which I don't think it is,
that means you're just paying that in anyway.
Whatever.
That's the way you look at it. I look at it as payday.
Because it's called a refund.
Yeah, so, but things you write off are...
Gas money to work, to and from work, to them from work events.
If I go to the movies, I write off all my movie tickets.
If I write off my cable bill, I write off...
I mean, if I buy a UFC fight, pay-per-view, I write that off because that's part of it.
But what if we never talk about it?
I tweet about it.
Tweet.
What about lottery tickets?
I can write those off because we talk about those.
You see what I'm seeing?
Chris, I just think eventually he goes to jail.
Well, that's why I was wondering because it's obviously clearly a public topic for him.
And it is quite amazing.
I mean, I don't really be able to make that much money in their taxes.
But what are your plans this year with it?
It just depends what I get back.
I've got to look at the numbers, crunch some things, use my calculator, and who knows?
What are you feeling like this year will lead you to?
A vacation.
I think I deserve a vacation this year.
A big vacation.
Like where?
I don't know.
You think you'll get over $10,000 back?
I feel like $10,000 is a good number this year.
Huh.
Well, Chris, thank you for a calling.
I'd forgotten that that's how...
I mean, I did mine.
Mine's totally different because I have so many outside jobs
that pay me and don't take taxes out of it.
So you have to pay.
So I have to...
Well, I try to stay even.
Oh.
So meaning when I write the book and I get paid,
they just give me a check and then I don't...
There's no taxes taken out of it.
Oh, boy.
See, that would get confusing.
That's stressful.
When I do stand-up, I just get paid a check.
And then I have to take the taxes out myself.
I mean, I don't.
Whoever does that money.
So, yeah, when it's tax time for me, I just try for it to be even.
It's not.
It usually is one way or the other a little bit.
But I'm not like lunchbox, or I go bawling out of control tax time.
Hey, you've got to be smart like me.
Get paid.
Yeah, if you're getting that much back, you're probably not even paying taxes, really.
So that's bad.
You're probably going to go to jail, dude, for sure.
How many, over the last five years, how much money do you think you've gotten back?
Cumulative.
Ooh, right around 50 G's.
That's hard time, right, Carissa?
I wouldn't mind some help with that lunch bug.
He's going to the big house.
The first time he did it, he did it on the wrong tax form, too.
He said it in anyway.
And it worked.
Carissa, hey, thank you for calling.
As I like to say, I appreciate you.
Appreciate you, Bobby, and I'm looking forward to seeing you in Charleston.
That's right.
So I'll be in Charleston in about a month or so.
I'm doing stand-up in Charleston.
By the way, next weekend I'll be in Colorado Springs.
I'm coming to Wichita Falls, Texas, which would be good.
Yeah, we're just kind of hitting it all around.
Albuquerque, Tampa.
So thank you very much.
Bobby Bonescom.com if you want to come out to a show.
I bought your daughter a doll.
Yeah, an American girl doll, to be specific.
Little did I know was going to create such havoc.
Yeah, all the girls are into it and everything's super expensive.
So way to go.
Well, I bought her a doll, and I bought her.
Some clothes and a hairbrush.
And a guitar and all the things.
Outfits.
Yeah.
And now she wants more.
Yeah, that's how it works.
Uncle Bobby.
Because she sees other things and she knows she has an American girl doll.
So she's like, oh, mom, mom, mom, I need the table and chairs that go with my American girl dolls so we can have tea time.
How does she know there's a table and chairs that exist?
Because all the other girls have them and they talk about it and she sees it.
I mean, it's just, she didn't have the doll.
I don't know that she would really be concerned about whether or not her doll had a table and chairs because she doesn't have a doll.
I feel a little attacked right now.
No, it's not.
No, but I don't think I would have introduced her to the American Girl doll yet maybe.
Just like I'm not going to introduce her to the American Girl Doll store because that just seems like a nightmare way to happen.
I mean, I'm sure it's entertaining, but I don't know how parents get out of there without spending money that just doesn't make sense for little kids.
So I have sort of led her to believe that you are the person that somehow comes up with American girl doll things.
Like, you're the store is at your house.
So she needs to talk to you.
Wait, so she just moved to America.
Yeah.
And you've convinced her there's a store in my house.
Well, I just said you're going to have to talk to Uncle Bobby about that.
Okay, I'll just start buying her all kinds of stuff.
Okay.
Is that okay?
Sure.
No.
Guys, this is how it works.
Amy, that's not going to solve your problem.
It's not?
No.
If it's American Girl Doll it is.
If he's the American Girl Dollar factory, it solves all my problems.
Relating to American Girl Doll.
And that's the way that you never have to buy or anything.
Yeah, and I don't have to actually take her to that store because the store, you or the store, you show up and like, bam, this is I'm in.
Okay.
And you know what?
Some people have American Girl Doll parties.
So what we do is we just go over to Bobby's house.
Yeah, they have the parties at your house.
There you go, Bones.
Enjoy that.
I was getting myself into.
I mean, it's just so great because I feel like I'm just going to save so much money.
Okay.
That backfired on you, Victor.
I'm down for this early experiment.
Yeah.
But I can bring over it because I stopped bringing gifts.
Yeah.
Because you told me it was too much.
Yeah, and you don't have to bring stuff all the time.
And no, I'm not saying we shower her with stuff.
But occasionally, when the new American Girl doll treats come up,
guess where they come from.
Only me.
The original American Girl Doll creator, Bobby.
Yeah.
This is good.
All right, thank you, I'm glad we can establish the rule.
Now we know the rules we can play the game.
And shoot, I hope she's not listening right now.
It's early.
Okay, good.
Okay.
Go over to Amy now for that skinny.
Bobby Bones show.
The latest from Nashville in Hollywood.
Amy's 32nd Skinny.
It's Friday, so we got some movies out today.
Gringo, a wrinkle in time, and strangers pray at night.
This wrinkle in time supposed to be big.
I know, and I think it only had 43% positive.
to run raw tomatoes, which isn't that great.
What made me think that maybe it's not as big as the hype,
because listen, you have Oprah in it, you have Reese Witherspoon in it,
whenever they're doing that much press, I go, ooh.
Like they need help.
They're doing tons of press.
It's a Disney movie, huh?
It's a book.
Yeah, but it's a book first.
It may be Disney, I don't know.
But I was watching a rerun of Big Bang Theory the night,
and they were reading A Wrinkle in Time on the show.
Oh, funny.
Yeah, that's how I know it's a book.
Yeah, what else am?
Okay, so now on your...
Alexa, you can have Blake Shelton wake you up.
Dang, is it time for a drink yet?
I mean, coffee?
Time to get up, y'all.
Yeah, we talked about that yesterday, but I hadn't heard it before until now.
I don't think I want that.
I would be asleep and feel like a man is talking to me in my room.
You go, what the?
Grab my bat.
Telling me to drink?
Coffee.
Who's in my house?
So how do you do that?
You just tell it.
You just say, hey, I want Blake Shelton to wake me up.
Are there any other options?
I don't want to go to Blake.
Don't, I, the only one to have audio up is Blake.
Why do you want?
No, I was thinking like somebody.
No.
Totally different?
Oh, like that.
Hey.
Hey, wake up.
Don't be late for work.
We got to hunt fish and love every day.
This is one of those days.
Who would you want?
You'd probably want a girl.
Yeah, probably, yeah.
Who would call that?
Maybe somebody British.
Kate.
Oh.
Quebec and sale probably?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, there we go.
Or a real life human one.
That'd be cool, too.
Bobby Bones.

Are you Ken to pay
Can't
I say can.
Probably.
No, no.
Wasn't that asked of you every time you went anywhere for the first?
Yeah.
I mean, it's spelled different.
It's so different.
Everything about it's different except.
Looking back, there's all these moments for you.
Like, I love that Brad has a song.
It's my last name, you know, which is like, thanks, man.
You weren't me.
But it's just kind of funny.
It's just part of what it is, and we all have our little thing, you know.
What happened with your truck?
Did he get hit?
I did, man.
We live close to a place where people drop people off.
And it's like, don't tell people where we live.
But, yeah, someone's side swipe my truck, and she was really nice and left a note.
No, it was just parked out in front of the house.
And she left a note.
It was really nice of her.
And, yeah, I think it was like on one of her kids' like little drawings.
So it was like I got art and a nice letter of call me.
Oh, that she left you a drawing too.
And did they pay for it, insurance and everything?
Yeah, it's fabulous.
My truck's all shiny and new.
I can't wash it yet.
Same truck.
Yeah.
I had a list at one point of the five biggest trucks that had come to my house, and you were on the list.
You're at number four, actually.
I'm looking at the lesson out.
I got a bigger truck now, so it worked out.
Dirk's was at five.
You were at four.
Cool.
But you were beat by Kip, who's his way jacked up.
Yeah, yeah.
Preston from Locash.
That's up there.
And then Jaron Johnson, from Cadillight 3 couldn't even park at my house.
Because it's so big.
He'd go park down the road because it was so big.
Well, that's awesome and a bummer.
Thank you for including me in the truck list.
Why do you need a big truck?
Because we carry stuff, man.
You do.
I just, okay, I love deals and we love renovating stuff.
Natalie and I love doing it.
She's hanging out.
Hey, baby.
But the last thing we're renovating a house and the last thing we need is baseball, right?
I don't want to spend a dollar for baseball.
Maybe I would have to.
I was waiting for months and months.
It's like Craig List, let go, find something.
Bowling Green.
baby. I got it for like 40 cents a foot. So we had to go pick up some
a baseball board. That's what trucks are for, man. You do use the truck. I do. How about
this? I'm gonna play your new song in a second, but here's this one here. In case you
haven't been thinking about Eric Passley for a bit. He dropped out the face of the
earth for a while. I did, man. Yeah, here.
It's the number one, huh?
Number one?
That's your rock. Yeah, baby.
How about this one here?
You're nominated for Song of the Year for this one, huh?
A-CM Song of the Year.
That was special.
This guy. So he's been gone.
I guess I've seen you a couple times, but even you've been...
I was going to ask Eric to go hang out with me
because my therapist said,
hey, you should go and ask someone that you don't normally hang out with to go...
And Eric and I have hung out socially.
I mean, completely away from work before,
but you've been just out of my life for a few months.
Yeah.
And I said, hey, what are you doing?
It's tough for me, AIM.
I know what you're bringing up.
It's tough for me, man.
No, no.
I just said, hey, what's going on Saturday night?
And he's like, oh, I was like, okay, cool.
I felt like I got rejected for a date
And so that's where we
It was awful man
Okay everybody
So this is why I'm a winner
So say you're
You know you're hanging out
And you know
One of the goats of all time on radio
Because he's in the freaking Hall of Fame already
Good job buddy
Asked you to go see the greatest fall time in person
I said hey you want to go see Garth Brooks
And I'm like
No man I gotta go work on the house
it's fine
that's so lame
I'm lame buddy
I was a little hurt
I won't be lame next time
but I won't ask you again
my goal is to hang
no please ask me
because
I talked to my therapist
and they said
you need to go hang out with friends man
you renovate crap too much
and fix up things
go hang out with friends
our goal is here
it's like
we've what we've renovated like
three houses
and two and a half years
of being married
we love doing it
But it takes a lot of time.
It's like, let's like hang out with friends.
Isn't that your 2018 goal?
Yes.
What is?
To renovate more houses?
No.
No, to hang out with friends.
So invite them to renovate houses with us.
So I'm sorry, man.
I bet that was awesome.
There's no need to be sorry.
But we had just opened up for him in Atlanta and it's like, I just saw it, man.
It's awesome.
I'm like, no, but I want to hang out with you.
Anyway.
Well, another deal.
Every one on the other side of the speakers are like, why would you say none of that?
2020, we'll try it again.
Okay.
What you say?
All right.
I got it down.
Hey, your new song is good, though.
Here it is.
Young Forever.
This is New Eric Passley here, Young Forever.
You wrote this just a couple guys I know, Chris Ostefano.
Yeah, and Morgan Evans.
Who's got a song on the radio in Abloy, Kelsey's husband.
Yeah, Kelsey Ballerini.
It's, no, Kelsey is Morgan's wife.
Wait, what I said?
You can say that way.
I'm just saying it all ways.
Wait, so wait, how did you guys all?
When did you write the song?
We wrote it just like, I don't know, right in December maybe, January.
It's pretty recent.
Really recent for Nashville time.
It's pretty soon.
And we've written a couple songs, and I went and recorded both of them.
Both times it was like, hey, Morgan, so that song, man, it's pretty cool.
Can I cut it?
Because we're both recording songs right now.
Right, were you both going on to who's going to cut it, me or him?
Probably, yeah, because it's a really good song.
song, you know?
Is that an awkward thing when you write with another artist that often comes up?
Not at all.
It's awesome because it's like, we have more chances.
Someone might actually hear this, you know?
But it was, you know, I really, like, you know, I want the song to be heard the way it should be.
I've had songs I've written that I didn't record, not because I didn't want to record
them, just because it was set up already for someone else to do it.
Like what song?
I mean, Barefoot Blue G. Knight, when I wrote that, I had just signed the record deal
and there it is.
I say it and it happens.
But I remember going, hey guys, the guys I was recording with,
we probably should record that barefoot song.
Like, I played it last night and people loved it.
And they're like, Jake Cohen's recording.
I'm like, holy crap.
And I'd never had a cut, you know.
I never had a song recorded.
So it was like, roll with it.
This is fabulous.
And Eli Young band Natalie, my wife had pitched it to him.
They had it for a couple years after Will Hogue had put it out.
Even if it breaks your heart?
Yeah, I told Mike Eli, it's like,
If you don't cut this, I'm cutting it.
So go cut it.
So they cut it.
Even Friday night, which is your hit, Lady Annabelle, and cut it.
And they never used it.
I have this tradition.
So you got to share, man.
Well, here's this Young Forever here.
New Fameric Pass.
Young Forever.
So what's it do?
You have a new record coming out this year?
Yeah.
Kind of?
I assume.
Yeah.
That's the goal, man.
How much ever you got cut yet?
We've cut almost all of it.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
There is one coming.
Oh, yeah.
Stop with your facetious ways.
Well, I don't know.
You know.
I mean, it's a mysterious place between singles and records, and it's, you know, all I know is I'm looking forward to sharing music with fans.
It's like, I'm like, I've starved them for like a few years.
It's like, dear Lord, this needs to stop.
Let's just feed fans, man.
You've starved me at friendship.
Oh, my goodness.
So dramatic.
Excuse me, what?
Let's go get friendship lunch, man.
What?
I'm going to play the song here.
I'm going to play the whole song, Young Forever.
I like it.
I've been playing it.
I put on a man.
Man, there's just a good vibe in the air.
I don't know.
I mean, I've had songs out on radio and you, and you've,
believe in all of them. You really, like I've believed in all of them, but there's, you can't make up
kind of what's floating around the room when you, when you're hanging out in good vibes, and it just
feels really cool right now.
Hey, me, what's the farthest you've traveled to a concert?
Oh, with you and Eddie to go see Garth Brooks. We drove from Nashville to Little Rock.
Yeah, so six hours, we're getting further.
That's worth it, too. It was amazing.
It was sure worth it. Every second of it.
I'd do it again.
Well, I wouldn't because I've been to that tour twice now.
Yeah, and you drove the whole time, though.
Oh, I mean, but I'd do it again if it was like my first time, yeah.
You'd ride another six hours?
Yeah, that was good.
Lunchbox further, she ever drove for a concert?
Oh, drove four hours to go see Tina Turner.
The Thunder.
And Lionel Richie was opening.
You didn't know who he was, right?
No, no.
That was in college.
So that was in San Antonio.
It was just a 20-minute drive.
I drove to Houston from Austin and had to sit in traffic and took four hours to get there, and I saw her.
And it was just Tina Turner the whole time.
She did an hour and a half.
took a 20 minute break, came back out for another hour and a half.
Woo!
Simply the best.
Amazing.
See what he did there?
The show before, though, was on Lionel Richie.
Yeah, Lionel Richie, and Lionel Richie was so boring.
You just don't know his songs.
Okay, well, he sat on the edge of the stage and sang, and he sat at the piano, and I was like, okay.
But that's what he does.
And all I could think was get this old dude off the stage and get me some Tina Turner.
The crowd was miserable.
The fact that Lunchbox loves Tina Turner is so funny.
You know why, Eddie?
Why?
He got a Happy Meal when he was like six at McDonald's and had a Tina Turner tape in it.
Is that true?
So he listened to it all the way to Chicago, right?
It was the greatest hits, and you could buy the tape for like $1.99 with the Happy Meal or the combo meal.
My mom bought it, and we listened to it in our car all the way to Chicago to go see my grandparents.
And I was like, this lady is amazing.
The Gar thing for me is six hours.
I went and drove to Chris Rock about four and a half hours last year because I wanted to see him in a big theater.
And it's basically the special that's on Netflix now.
And then I flew for no other reason to Minneapolis to watch John Mayer.
That's right.
Because I was touring every weekend.
That was the one weekend I was off.
I remember that.
That's probably the longest, but I did fly.
And I got a hotel room.
I love John Mayer.
And I know that you probably found yourself somewhere.
But I do not really care.
Because as long as it is there.
Man, when I was talking to Katie Perry, back, you know, we were shooting out.
You all talked about John?
No, but the whole time I was thinking, like, what's John?
Like you dated them
The shampoo
Who you love
That shampoo bottle
Yeah
Mike D
You're driving to see
Childish Gambino
Right
Yeah
Where?
Where?
In Atlanta
Okay
4 hours
Are you going by yourself?
Oh I've never traveled
That far by myself
Listen I went on vacations
By myself
So yeah
Yeah
But I've never traveled
To a concert by myself
Nobody will go with you
I think so
Oh man
When is it
Why don't you put on the internet
I'm looking for someone
To go to
Oh my
He can die.
But you do it.
No.
Yes, Amy, do it.
Okay.
Does it?
Well, he's he over there, killer.
Why he's so mad?
We need him to make, he wants to make friends.
You meet a girl.
Say, hey, I'll take it to the Gambino.
This just sounds like his lifetime original movie gone wrong.
Mike D is like our punk rock producer.
He dresses like he's in the Ramones and Green Day.
That spiky hair.
But he's always, listen, coming from me who also has nothing going on with my love life, you know.
But I don't, I don't know.
He's trying at least.
Yeah.
Maybe he'll meet someone there.
I don't know.
It's tough.
A childish gambit?
No, just add in a place
where people already go together.
Usually you buy tickets
like two tickets at a time, yeah.
Why don't you volunteer, Mike?
Because you'll meet people volunteering.
It's a good idea.
And you have something in common.
Yeah.
So, listen, I'm preaching to the choir.
I got nothing going on myself.
But you don't have time to volunteer.
You're so busy.
Listen, I do things.
Yeah, you do.
I don't meet anybody.
I already tried.
But for him, I think it can work.
It would be good.
All right, well, good luck with that, Mike D.
I feel bad for you.
You're on the apps, right?
Yeah.
Bumblebee?
Bumblebee.
Good luck with that, man.
Thank you.
I gotta get me one of those Bumblebee profiles.
Amy, you're going to set mine up for me?
Yeah, you want me to?
She's done it before, hasn't she?
Not for me.
Well, I tried to do it.
It's just lunch and all that.
No, no, seven years ago.
Amy signs me up for It's Just Lunch or some service.
But it's not.
It's like thousands of dollars in lunch.
They call, yeah, we'd like to offer you a pack.
It's just cost $2,200.
I was like, for what?
And your friend signed you up for it's just lunch.
Like, how much the lunch costs?
What am I eating?
That's crazy.
It's not just lunch.
It's lunch in my savings account.
Yeah, I apologize to Bobby for that one and for giving them his number.
They kept calling me too.
They were like, hey, it's Jimmy from It's Just Lunch.
They want your two grand.
Stop calling me.
What if you were getting proposed to and you found out that the guy that gave you that ring,
tried with someone else before with that same ring.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I'm in a knot.
I'm in a knot like that, probably.
I just need, he could trade it and take that money
and go do something else, but no.
No, that was bought for somebody else
that wasn't bought for me.
Did Ari on The Bachelor get a different ring?
Oh, man, I don't know.
I tried to tell, but they didn't really zoom in on it.
It came from Neil Lane.
They were both from Neil Lane.
I know that.
How awesome would that be?
all that money.
Yeah.
How awesome if he gave them both the same ring?
Yes.
That would make this season even better.
There's also a story about a guy who,
his ex-girlfriend rejected him.
So he has the ring and now he's giving it to another couple.
And if you're the girl and you're receiving that ring.
Well, that's okay.
It's coming from somewhere else.
It's almost like if you go to a...
No.
No.
And that's not...
Bad juju?
No.
And that's not why I don't want the ring from, you know,
the other proposal.
it's a juju. It said it wasn't for me and I'm with that same person.
If it's coming from a totally different dude, that's okay. That's like if you go get a ring
at an antique shop, you don't know the history behind it. All kinds of juju.
That's true. You know, I've never been engaged. I've never been looking at rings before.
Like, never. And you've been in five-year relationships.
I was in one that was four years. By the way, we never let you get. If you guys want to ask me anything,
go ahead. You can do it now. Everybody can have one question.
What was the thing we can ask you?
Anything about my daddy?
Because listeners are just on my case, like, hey, what's the deal?
And I got no deal.
But I will answer it all truthfully.
You get one question.
Go, Amy.
Are you still talking to your ex-girlfriend?
I haven't seen her in weeks.
A couple of times in the past couple weeks.
My dog is really sick.
She loves my dog.
Now, I haven't seen her with my dog, but she went to see my dog.
Because my dog might die in the next couple weeks.
So because of that,
That, yes.
Because she spent a lot of time with my dog.
So, and I don't feel like that's weird.
Yeah, I don't either.
I just didn't know if it allows you to, for some rate,
like if it allows everybody to move on, you know?
What, my dog dying?
Oh, like if you still talk and communicate.
Oh, well, I don't know.
Yeah, I mean, I would think so, but that's why we've talked.
She's been over, I haven't met at the house when she's been over the house.
Yeah, the dog thing, that's like huge.
She loves that dog.
Yeah.
So that's why.
Thank you for asking.
Question answered.
Watchbox.
When's the last time you smooched a female?
Not in six months.
Nothing.
No smooch?
Not even a smooch, dude.
Holding hands?
Nothing.
You've got to be.
Holding hands is more intimate than smooching, Eddie.
Oh.
Well, I don't know about that.
Well, I think so.
Well.
Like, Fox's nothing.
No, no smooching.
No bumping, uglies.
I got a question.
No holding hands.
But you already had a question.
I have a follow-up question.
Eddie, go ahead.
Has anyone thrown game at you?
No.
No.
No, I take that.
No.
Yeah, okay.
What did you get?
Yeah, let's hear it.
What did you get?
I don't know.
I think so.
I don't even know because I'm so out of the game.
I can't tell if it's stopping.
You wouldn't know if you got some text coming at you.
We're like, oh, this girl baby wants to.
Yeah, like, has anybody seen you a picture?
Hold hands.
No, nothing like that.
Oh.
No. This is my question.
I've told Amy about this.
Oh.
Because I was confused too.
Yeah. Now tell us about this.
The answer is I don't know.
Hmm.
Yeah.
Did someone we all know?
No.
No.
You're so vague.
I'm trying to figure out.
Why ask questions if you're going to be vague?
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
I think that, yeah, sometimes Bobby doesn't, like a girl could be like,
hi, I would like to go on a date with you.
and Bobby would be like, huh?
Do you think she wants to date me, guys?
I mean, that's really what I don't, because I went to Amy and said, hey, is this flirting or no?
She says, yeah, I really like you and I want to date you.
She's even like, hashtag, I'm flirting.
Bobby's still like, I don't get it.
I was like, Amy, I don't know, I can't tell her.
Winky face.
I would have said no to that, but Amy would have said probably yes.
Uh-huh.
So you're getting requests.
No, just one time.
It wasn't a request, any.
It was literally one time.
One show of interest.
But I haven't, it hasn't been in a long time.
Yeah.
It's been a while.
All right.
So thank you for your question.
But there's nothing going on.
Do you want to accept one more from lunchbox?
Yeah, go ahead, lunchbox.
Question of my dating life.
Go ahead.
Does your, like, your tongue ever get mad at you because it gets no action?
What?
That's your question?
I feel like I'm wasting a lot of time on this question.
Where my body.
Like, I have a physically fit body right now.
I imagine I'm going to get all the time and work anymore.
I see what you're saying.
Wait.
He's got goods right now.
Even with kids.
And they're at prime.
Peak.
Yeah.
I feel like I'm primed.
and I'm not spreading the seed at all.
Like, I've done...
So you want to have a baby?
I'm not against it, but only if I find the right person.
Come on.
Ladies, he's talking to you.
What if you just get a surrogate?
What if I...
No, I don't want that.
I want someone to...
Oh, trust me.
Okay, why do you get someone that you can just co-parent with,
but you don't have to date?
No, I don't...
I think I still have hope...
Should you want to meet the right person?
I still have hope that there's somebody out there.
I know I'm 37.
I'm single.
I've never been married.
I have no kids.
Like, probably it should have happened for me about already.
but it hasn't.
You've had some pretty lovable females.
The common denominator is my messed up head.
Yeah.
You've never told them that you loved them.
So that's kind of a big part that needs to kind of happen.
But for some reason, some of them just still stick around.
I know.
It's good.
I'm like, guys, I'm a good guy.
You are.
Yeah, you are.
Like, that's not what we're saying.
Yeah.
I'm tough to be in a relationship with because I don't get, I'm not as vulnerable.
Reach.
You've dated some patient women.
Yeah.
Oh, I did some awesome women.
You don't even have to date him to know that.
All of us.
We don't, we don't, we don't.
You said I'm hard to be in a relationship with on any level.
Even friendship.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, now we're turning to a different game.
Oh, God.
Well, thank you.
Great question, though, B.
Okay.
I'm good.
You got, dude, anyway, positive, you got time.
You got time.
You do.
What's his name?
Just had a baby and he's like 80.
Oh, what's his name?
That, some, that, what you do know who I'm talking about?
Make Jagger?
Yeah.
Yeah, cool.
The Bobby Bones show, Bobby Bones.
Your husband's taking the kids to the movies a lot.
Is that their thing?
Yeah, it's called Daddy Day.
So he just goes to hangs?
He loves Daddy Day.
They go get pizza, then they go to the movies, and then they come home, which is a great.
He calls it Daddy Day so that Mommy can have a day.
I don't know why we say Daddy and Mommy in front of the kids, but just welcome to being a parent.
Do you call him Daddy now in front of the kids?
I say Dad.
Daddy Day just flows, but really we're Mom and Dad, and we do do that.
I'll say if the kids are in the room and I need to ask him to do something instead of using his name, I say dad.
Yeah, but again, that makes sense.
I know.
I know, but it is a weird, interesting shift that you just start to change your language a little bit.
I mean, even to each other.
And I know other parents do this too, but I'll say, do you have to go peepee?
To dad?
Dad.
Okay, hold on.
Dad has to go peepee.
So Amy has a 10-year-old and a 7-year-old.
And so he's taken him in the movies.
Yeah, so he's gone twice in two weeks.
two daddy days.
And they're great.
So first of all,
Daddy Day is also
Secret Day for Mommy Day
because they've allowed
certain snacks
and like popcorn
and he's taught them
to not tell me about it.
Oh.
But my son can't resist.
So wait,
how do you find this out?
So I said,
did y'all love the movie?
Yeah.
What y'all do?
Did y'all get popcorn?
Because that makes sense to me.
And my son goes, no.
And then my daughter goes,
no.
And then I said,
whoa, you didn't get popcorn?
And my son goes,
yes.
And then my daughter runs out there's, Dad, Stevenson just told Dad, that we got popcorn.
And so then I'm outed.
And he's like, that was a bonding moment with me and them, you know?
Oh, to keep secrets from mom.
Yeah, yeah.
Like a bond.
Like, don't tell Mom, but Daddy's giving you popcorn.
So there's that.
And then he confesses to me that both times of the movies, he's just straight up taking a nap.
He can't tell me anything about the movie.
He doesn't even know what happened.
And the first one was Paddington, too.
And the second one was Peter Rabbit or whatever.
He's like, Daddy Day's Amazing. Daddy gets a two-hour nap.
And the movie theater has some new chairs that just straight up recline, like a recliner.
Is he not worried about the kids running off?
No, they love the movie.
And then they have their popcorn.
Their secret popcorn.
Their secret popcorn.
Don't tell Mama got you popcorn.
And he reclines in that recliner.
I don't think if the chairs or is comfortable, he'd be into this.
But it's a theater bias just added those into it.
And it has to be that specific theater.
So I think he looks ahead and you can reserve seats.
He finds the best napping chairs for the movie.
He's like, okay, this one looks money, so I'm going to get that one.
So now I know what's up.
When Daddy Day comes up, clearly somebody needs it now.
Body bones, y'all.
Hannah in Tennessee.
Hi, Hannah.
Hi, how you?
Good morning.
Good morning.
Welcome to the show.
What's happening?
Well, you know, I'm on the way to work.
I work at an elementary school.
And it's like my third day back from maternity leave.
I just had to leave my three-month-old little baby girl, and I turned on the radio in the car,
and you guys just make it so much easier to drive to work and leave her.
And I'm so excited that Amy got her kids over here.
That wasn't happening when I left in November.
So I turned on the radio, and that's one of the first things I hear.
And I was like, hey, Amy, I'm so happy for you.
So when you went on maternity leave, Amy did not have her kids.
You came back.
She's had her kids now for a couple of months.
Yes.
Yeah.
How about that, huh?
It makes me so happy.
And I'm like, you know, I have to leave my baby.
Well, I'm like, at least they need have hurt.
You know, I know that was a hard.
She went through a lot getting them over there.
Yeah, five years in the adoption process.
Hannah, I have a couple questions for you.
One, is it full of flu right now, your school?
Yeah, we're still kind of right in the middle of it.
And tenants is up and down.
I have a couple kids out right now, so.
Are you worried about that at all for you?
Yes.
I mean, I keep germics on me all day, and they come give me a hug.
And I'm like, oh, baby, I love you.
Okay, you want me to do and make my ass.
Like, uh, don't want to take that home to my baby.
What's it been like having a new baby?
Oh, it's indescribable.
I mean, you know, I'm tired all the time, obviously.
It's, you know, everybody knows the sleep deprivation is rough.
But I see her little smile, her little toothless, gummy smile, and it's just, it's all like that.
It's a love you cannot describe.
It's amazing.
Well, that's awesome.
Thanks for sharing that with us

Bobby Bowles
Yesterday we're talking about
that new movie
Christopher Robin, which is
Winnie the Pooh's friend.
You know he is, right? The kid.
But now Christopher Robin's an adult man, and he's having
a mental breakdown, and he's like, I don't know.
And Pooh shows up.
What to do, what to do, what to do.
Christopher Robin.
I've cracked. Oh, I don't see any cracks.
A few wrinkles, maybe.
So our punk rock producer, Mike D, was like,
it made me cry almost.
Eddie watched it yesterday.
What'd you think about it?
I have a 10-year-old, so I'm forced to watch a bunch of these cartoon movies.
This isn't a cartoon, and I try to be tough about it, but I started getting chills when Pooh showed up.
I got chills in my body.
It was so weird.
I'm glad it's not a cartoon infused into human.
Yeah, it's like Paddington Bear or those kind of animation.
But Pooh does look a little fake to me.
Well, that's because he's not real, eh?
Yeah, I was wondering that.
What do you want them to use?
Hey, we were talking about things that make you feel oddly emotional, and that was one.
Rebecca and Ohio, good morning.
Morning.
What about this has happened to you where you're just like,
hmm, chilling, chill and chilling, boom, emotional.
I teach kindergarten and I had a student raise their hand and read a word
and she's never been able to read a word before and I lost it
instead of all of my kids.
I bet that's awesome though because you've watched someone try and then develop and then succeed.
Oh, yeah, and for this student it was like, oh my goodness, where did that come from?
kind of moment. That's cool. That's really cool. Thanks for sharing that with us. Let's go over to
Nadine in Maryland. Hey, Nadine. Hey, Bobby. What happens where you shouldn't get emotional, but you do
oddly? I cry when artists win awards shows, especially when they all sing together for a tragedy that's
happened in our country. Now, do you cry if someone wins best new artist for no reason?
Yeah, it just kind of makes me care of.
I've worked our whole lives to do it.
Yeah.
Okay, okay.
I appreciate that.
Hey, Randall.
Yeah.
You're in Oklahoma.
What you think about this?
My thing is that song by Scotty McGree, five more minutes.
That'll definitely pull on the old filler strings.
Which part of it gets you?
Because there's something in that song.
It's maybe the football, the grandpa.
What is it?
It's mainly the grandpa.
I just lost a grandma here a couple years ago,
and it was kind of a big thing for me.
Well, I appreciate you sharing.
that story with us, bud.
I appreciate you.
Hey, I appreciate you.
You!
That's what guys do.
They get vulnerable and they have to yell at each other real quick to cancel it out.
Amy, yesterday you didn't bring one of these up.
What do you think?
Well, I do have one.
It's something my son was singing and it was just so cute.
Somebody gave my kids ukuleleys and he doesn't know really how to play it.
But he was strumming it and I've never heard him and they've been home for over two months.
And I've never sang this song to him.
But all of a sudden he's strumming.
drumming it and he goes,
Itsy bitsy spider
Linn up the water spout.
And I was like, what?
It was the cutest thing ever.
Why did that resonate?
Because it's English.
It's English.
Like, that's a song for my childhood.
I was thinking,
it's just cute to see him like bring that out of nowhere.
And I just pictured maybe back at the orphanage.
Someone must have sang that to him.
I don't know.
Lunchbox.
Tracy Morgan has a new TV show coming out on TBS.
And he's the star of it.
O.G.
Yeah, the last O.G or something like that.
And I thought Tracy Morgan was never going to act again.
And so it was kind of cool.
It gave me chills like, okay, he's making a little comeback.
He's getting better.
Look at everybody getting oddly emotional.
I talked about yesterday how I sent a text to a friend who wrote a section of my new book.
I have eight or nine people that wrote a paragraph or so.
And I was like, man, thank you for being my friend.
Travel down the road and back again.
Your heart is true.
And then I realized it was a golden girl.
song.
I just appreciate you.
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
Have you heard about extreme ironing?
No.
But it makes me smile.
If this doesn't get into the Summer Olympics, I'm going to be super disappointed.
But contestants, they iron clothes everywhere from on top of mountain tops to lakes and even
while being pulled behind ski boats.
That's funny.
So, they're taking pictures, obviously, of them ironing in weird places.
No, no, no.
It's a competition they iron and then afterwards their ironing is evaluated on how
Well, they're really a competition? I thought it was like
the plank. You're planking.
This is, I was reading this whole article about the weirdest
sports that exist and extreme ironing is actually
a thing. And funny.
Yeah, I like that. My one would dominate.
You haven't heard of giant pumpkin kayaking?
No, no. I haven't watched that one.
You paddle a giant hollowed out pumpkin across a river.
You get in it?
That sounds like you're trapping yourself in for a drowning.
All right, here we go. Oh my God. Oh my God.
Oh, no.
Like, these are the Olympics I'd watch.
We lost another one, Jim.
We've had three people try it, and all three had not come back.
All right.
Back to you, Craig, upstairs.
Is anybody in here, like a food Instagram or, like, do Instagram a lot of your food?
No, I used to a bit, but I found that I would start to eat it before I'd remember,
and I don't like to put up food that's half-eaten.
I don't even like to be in pictures where there's food that's half-eaten.
We either take a picture before dinner or after the plates are cleaned out,
because I don't want to see half-eaten food.
Some answers no.
Okay, so I follow a lot of people that do post this stuff, and sometimes I'm like, whoa, how are they eating all of that?
Because, of course, they want to make it look beautiful.
And it turns out that Instagram and your food could make you eat more because you do want it to look pretty.
So you add, like, say you do like this bowl of oatmeal.
Well, you want it to look pretty with chunks of dark chocolate and frozen fruit and granola and peanut butter drizzled on top, all for the picture.
But then you're like, oh, this is good.
And you end up eating it all.
So be aware of that.
And then also, babies who look like their dads are healthier.
Anybody who in here looks most like their dad?
Probably me.
And I don't, you know, like I said.
Really?
Yeah, I don't know my dad.
I just, I've seen pictures.
That's crazy.
Yeah, like just like them.
Exactly like them.
Wow.
Yeah.
So probably, I mean, Eddie looks just like his dad.
I look like my dad for sure.
Yeah, there's a reason.
So we're all healthy.
There's a whole common genetic thing here.
I look exactly like my mom.
What I've learned.
is you should never tell a baby.
You should never tell the mom the baby looks like the dad.
Because I did.
Why not?
Well, this is a joke I have to, I've been tinkering with.
Oh, tell us.
Well, it's not, I'm not going to tell.
The joke won't work here because it's a different environment.
But you should, I went to my buddy's house and I said, hey, him and his wife were there.
I said, man, I said, Ricky, that baby looks just like you.
It's a girl.
It's a baby girl.
And the wife's like, huh?
I said, no, no, it looks just like you.
Wow, it's crazy.
She looks like her dad so much.
And the mom and said, no, she looks like a man.
Oh, I get what you're saying.
It's a girl.
It's a baby girl.
Yeah, it's the whole thing.
So I found you shouldn't say it more than once.
And you said it like five times.
Oh, I kept saying it.
I was like, even like the hairline.
She looks just like him.
So, yeah, that's the whole thing.
Well, that's good news for him.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah, for sure.
She's his.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Congratulations.
Eddie, what do you call that?
Fosho.
It's a faux show parent right there.
Okay, I'm Amy.

Family time.
Oh, I scheduled my daughter to have her new braids put in.
You know that takes about eight hours.
I didn't know that.
So, yeah, me neither.
I hope it's, I don't know what the weather's going to be like.
But I know we want to get in family time,
but she's going to be sitting in a chair for eight hours.
Do you give her a tablet?
Yeah, well,
movies. She only had it done once before.
So, you know, she'll
stay entertained, I'm sure. Lunchbikes?
I'll do something awesome. I have no idea
what, but I got no plans, really.
Probably catch them on sleep. You know the wife? Have nothing
going on? No, unless the wife
has something on the docket that I don't know about which
she probably does. Is that how the weekend usually goes?
Yes. She comes to you and says,
I want to go to the flea market, or
I have plans to go here with these people
from work. Okay, I guess I'll come with you.
Do you like our friends from work? They're nice.
Some of them.
He hits with a double.
They're nice, and only some of them.
Yeah.
All right.
I'm going to spend this weekend.
Since I go out on the road next weekend,
like my comedy tour starts,
I just got to go through notes.
What do you mean?
I have so many things written.
Oh, funny notes?
Yeah, well, I don't know.
You never know until you.
You get it out in front of people.
So I just got to kind of pick
