Well, well, well. Danica in Iowa is on the phone. Let's go over and talk to Danica. Hello, Danica. Morning, studio. Morning. All right, so I'm in the last call this morning. I just kind of wanted to get some advice.

It reminded me of something that happened yesterday, and it kind of just bugged me on a personal level. So I was in a store checking out, and I heard some commotion behind me, and one of the customers that was checking out, essentially how she was talking and what she was saying, I consider her a Karen, is essentially what happened. She was just talking down to the Sales Associate,

because she didn't say hi, She didn't say bye and just all of other stuff. Like she just was talking down to the sales associate like she was better than her. And I've been in her position. I've been in retail so I know how that stuff works. But as I was leaving, that associate that had been talked to by this woman was leaving, like, in tears. And I'm not one for confrontation. So, and I had already been in my car driving away, I just kind of want to get your guys to

advice on what you guys would have done in that situation because it just kind of bugged me on a personal level. because I've been where she's been Yeah Listen I said someone who's worked in retail as well That would have bug me too I think any human that's going to bug I would think that the move isn't to go after That we'll call her the Karen

I would think it is after she leaves To just kind of go to the sales associate And be like hey Dang that sucks Sorry about that I've been there too You know you're doing a great job Don't listen to her She was obviously having a bad day

And she took it out on you I mean I think that's probably the move I don't think you want to confront the Karen There's no win there No Maybe you say some to her as you're walking away So you can't do anything to you You know back to you like you suck and keep going

Get in your car and leave Yeah there's just no need for a confrontation That's probably what she was looking for anyway So I think the move would have just been to Go hey You work in here Like you're doing a great job don't listen to that I watched the whole thing you did nothing wrong

She's having a bad day That's what I would say If you were to confront the Karen Though what would you say because I feel like Cairns or people that are just Having a bad attitude that day They're probably having bad days too So I think there's something that you can say to them right

Whether it's like hey are you okay Like you really yelled at that lady back there And I don't think you should have Is there you are right? Do you need anything? The move is to go hey I know normally you're not this angry of a person Right But it kind of insults him at the same time

Yeah and you know that Yeah yeah but you do it in a loving way It's like hey I do this on Instagram sometimes When someone says something really dumb I go listen I know you're not this stupid So I'm gonna give you the minute for the doubt today But let's post better next time Like you can always approach someone like that

Like hey lady I know you're not this mean in real life Take a couple deep breaths You're better than this There we go Next time you come in let's be better Now I wouldn't do that I wouldn't either

I would do it on the internet But I would Danica I think we've all been in that situation We've seen someone being treated badly And I think we just kind of build up The person that was knocking down more than anything Okay perfect Thank you guys

Thank you very much Hey I do want to mention this Mike D our head writer If you hear a game on the show, he probably wrote it. He went with me and he helped produce the show whenever I'm on the road. Because last week I worked in California was doing American Idol. By the way, watching it tonight to come back episode. But Mike D saw an A-List celebrity in Los Angeles.

A-list. Yes, I did. So what was the situation? I was walking on the side of the road and there was this car coming, like pulling up, and turned right in front of me and up to a gate, made eye contact with the person and realized it was a celebrity, saw them punch in a gate code and go into their house. Stop it.

Did you see the gate code? I could have seen the gate code, but I decided to look away. So you know where they live now, too? I know exactly where they live. Okay, he's going to give you four options. Oh, my goodness. You saw their house. Yes.

Was their house awesome? Well, you could see, like, the driveway and a bit of the house. It looked amazing. Which A-list celebrity was it? He has four people. Number one. Was it Justin Bieber? That would be amazing.

That would be cool. All right? Was it Keanu Reeves? Oh. Dang, Keanu. Okay. Or Chris Martin of Coldplay? Oh, man.

Nah. Wait, why not Chris Martin? L.A. What's he doing over there? Living? Living? He's British. He doesn't live in the UK.

Well, in my mind, he does. Or Miley Cyrus. Ooh. So all four of these are A-list. This is good. Can we ask questions? Sure. What were they driving?

A black Jeep. Okay. Like a black Jeep. Like a blinged-out Jeep? Just the regular black Jeep. Was the top off and you could see them? No. Oh, the top was on.

Top was on. But you still saw. I saw them head their window down. And they were driving, Mike D, not being driven? Yeah, they didn't have a driver. They were driving the Jeep. Anybody else in the car? Nobody else in the car.

Huh. Okay. What? Go ahead. Were they listening to any music? Couldn't hear anything. He's like, they were listening to the yellow by their band. Chris Martin's listening to the whole thing.

That'd be so funny. Any one question lunchbox if you have one to ask it now man did they have any luggage they back from traveling didn't see any luggage Eddie did you made eye contact with me I did they smile at you no they looked at me kind of blankly Morgan did they have a hat or sunglasses on no hat or sunglasses I know who it is so I'm pulling myself out okay because as soon as it happened Mike's like you'll never guess who's all right which one was it was it was it Justin Beaver, Keanu Reeves, Chris Martin of Coldplay

or Miley Cyrus, Eddie. Give me. When she looks to the left, she sees the Hollywood sign. Give me Miley Cyrus. All right, one in from Miley. Lunchbox? The way you said it was such excitement, he told me right away. It started making me want to change my answer to Keanu Reeves, but I feel like

you would have gone by there just to try to sneak a peek, and you didn't say you went by. So I'm going, Miley Cyrus! Yes! Okay. We have two Miley's. Morgan. I feel like Miley sold her Malibu house or it got burned in the fires. I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty positive. That's the case. So I don't think she lives there anymore. And you would be really excited if it was Justin Bieber or

Keanu Reeves. So I'm going with one of those, but I think it was Justin Bieber. That had been really cool if Justin Bieber. Wait, it's not Justin Bieber? Was it? Kiano Reeves? No. It was not Keanu Reeves. No. It was not Keanu Reeves. Oh! Here we go! We have two left. It might be Coleplay. No, come on.

It's got to be a party in the USA, man. It's got to be... That's her. It's either Miley Cyrus or Chris Martin of Colplay. She is Malibu. That is what Malibu is. Chris Martin is driving a Jeep.

Right. That's what I'm saying. He's not a Jeep guy. Was it Chris Martin of Coldplay? It was Chris Martin of Coldplay. That's what? That's crazy. You saw Chris Martin.

It's pretty cool to see him ever really famous. It was so cool. I was just making some regular. person I looked out was Chris Martin. And you're sure, I'm sure, I even Googled it later, and he does drive a black Jeep, and that is his home address. Wait, you Googled his home address? I did.

And it's on the internet? It's on the internet. What? That sounds unsafe. And Mike added his gate code. And I have his gate code, no. Okay, friends, let's open up the mailbag. You send an email, and we read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's mail bag.

Yeah. And she writes, hello. Bobby Bones. My name is Alicia in Wisconsin. I just found out I'm eight weeks pregnant. We get married in June. We are having a dilemma if we should announce prior to the wedding or do it at the wedding. Would it be weird to announce at the wedding? I also have my bachelor's party coming up and I don't want people to question why I'm not drinking and give it away. What are your thoughts? Thanks so much, Alicia. Here's the thing that I've learned about weddings. It's whatever you want. That's right. It really is. I love the fact that you. you want to announce at your wedding.

Do it at the reception. This is what in my mind, I'm just a spitball on this here. But you do the toast with the champagne where you put your hand. You did the wrap around. You know whatever that is? And you do it and then you take and you start to put in your mouth. Hold on, hold on, hold on. I should, you get the microphone.

I should be drinking this. Because I want you guys to know, we're pregnant. Yeah. Something like that would be how I would do it. That sounds cool. And it sounds like, ooh. Are you got to one up me? Well, no.

I just feel like she does bring a good question. What about the Bachelorette party? Everyone's going to be wondering why she's not drinking. Everyone's going to be drinking. She's like, no, not me, not me. You can get out of that easily. How? Just say you don't feel good.

Oh. Who's going to question it? Man, if anyone ever comes to my house and they don't... Or fake it. I fake it all the time. Well, yeah, you don't drink, though. I know, but I fake it all the time. People that don't know me, I don't go...

Hey, everybody, before we start having a good time, I don't drink alcohol. No, what I do is, I'll go to the bartender ahead of time or sneak off and be like, hey, I'm not drinking on purpose. can you just make sure that you give me virgin drinks that look like alcoholic drinks? You can do that, no problem. Okay. I would just make a situation at the wedding about it.

This is great news, by the way. I'm telling you, if we found out today that Caitlin was pregnant, I would be so happy, it would be A plus. We're already getting married. We're ready to go. Let's rock. Sooner the better.

We, oh, I don't know. I don't know, because she's very private. I don't know if I would just come on the radio. We did it! Yeah, well, the radio's different. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because that's everyone. Yeah, yeah.

But I don't know if you'd be able to keep a secret, man. If you knew, like, right away, I don't know how long you'd be able to keep that. I kept some big secrets for years. The billboard thing, kept that for years. You don't even know about, I'm about to tell you, man. See, I told you. Listen, this is what I would say, Alicia. First of all, congratulations.

You obviously are going to be with this guy forever. You're getting married. Do it at the wedding. Maybe you tell a couple of your closest bachelor's friends, and they kind of watch your back at the bachelor's party and make sure you have drinks that are an alcoholic. There you go. And then you announce it at the wedding

and you all have a great time. But don't do it pre-wedding. Do it at the reception. That's what I would say. All right, Alicia, that's the mailback. Close it up. We've got your email and we read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mailback.

Yeah. There you go. Hey, let's take this call from Russ in Nashville. Hey, Russ. Good morning, Bobby. Good morning, studio. Morning. Hey, I just want to tell you hi.

And I wanted to tell you how yesterday when I see you on Caitlin at the Yashville. airport, but I, you know, being my wife wanted to respect their privacy. Oh, well, we wouldn't mind it if you said hi. The mask thing is weird, though. You know, you see people and sometimes you wonder, Mike despotted John Lovitz in the airport. What? Yeah, actor?

But he had a mask on, and he was like, there's John Lovitz. And you don't want to, and with masks, so I felt that way. I was like, do I go say hi to John Lovitz? But I didn't feel like I wanted to take a picture or anything because I felt like with COVID, airport. It was too much. But same way, like, what you did to me, I did to John Lovitz. I wonder who he did that too. It's a chain.

All right, Russ, I appreciate that call. Hope you have a great day. We appreciate you. Thanks for everything you do. Appreciate you. Thank you very much. Bye-bye. It's the good news countdown.

Counting down the biggest good news stories across the lab. Let's go. We got the best news for you. Start at number five. Number five. A 62-year-old ambulance driver spent a full year of fighting COVID and then had to learn to walk again, but recovered, so as paramedic friends,

brought in a bagpiper to welcome him back to the world. Here's a clip of them welcoming him back. Welcome, Dave. Welcome, mate. That's cool. He's walking again. They brought in a bagpiper. Probably wearing a skirt.

That's awesome. Number four. An Army Captain of Virginia named Katie Hernandez broke a world record for the fastest mile while wearing a bomb suit. They weigh about 75 pounds, so it ain't easy. She did it in 10.

10 minutes and 23 seconds. The old record was just over 11 minutes. Here she is talking about how it was all mental. You feel good when you started and then all of a sudden you hit a wall and then after that it's all mental because you know your body is capable of doing it. It just doesn't feel like it wants to move. So at that point about a lap and a half less, it's all mental. I think I could pretty easily just run medium and do a 10 minute mile and feel good about

myself with no bomb suit. Like she did, that's, that's moving. Like that's a pretty good. consistent jog, maybe a little elevated jog, with 75 pounds on her. That's crazy. Let's have Eddie do this. No, no, no, I'm out. I can't do it.

I'm telling you right now. Man, good for her. That's tough. Okay, number three. Number three. Three rescue dogs from Texas recently had an unexpected family reunion in New York. Two of them saw each other in a walk and were really friendly like they knew each other. It turned out one dog was the other dog's dad.

What? These are dogs we're talking about. Yeah. And the owner of the son knew the person who adopted his brother, so they all got together at the park last month. Here's one of the owners talking about the reunion. It's so exciting to see the dogs just so happy to be together. It's pretty special that we adopted three dogs all in the same family from Texas and ended up living in the same dick code. I like that.

I wonder. I wonder if the dogs just want to play with anybody. Yeah, that's what I was wondering. Or if they really know it's a family. Either way, I liked the story. A hero in Hawaii saw a house on fire the other day, ran in, pulled an elderly guy out, then ran back in to check for the other rooms. Luckily, no one was inside, and he made it out right before the house collapsed. Here's the hero being interviewed after saving the older guy's life.

I could feel a heat just like being in on oven. So I was just glad I was there for able to help this guy get out of that situation. That's awesome. And finally, you're number one. And I saw this one, I thought it was really cool. Number one. A hospital caught fire last week, but a team of eight doctors and nurses refused to leave because they were in the middle of an open heart surgery. Wow.

Firefighters ran an extension cord in to make sure they had electricity. They used fans to keep the smoke out. It took over two hours to put the fire out, but no one was hurt, and the patient survived. Wow. I've never heard a story like this, ever. That's a big one. That was the Good News Countdown.

In a recent interview with InStyle magazine, Nicole Kidman shared, she liked. likes to pamper her husband, Keith Urban, with pedicures. Nicole Kidman said, sometimes, though, I'll treat my whole family to a spa day and get their feet massaged and give them pedicures. I can tell you, I don't like pedicures.

I think I've had one once. It's weird to me. I don't like getting my nails manicured really either, because as a kid, this is just trauma. That's right. When I was 11, 12, 13 years old, my mom was training to be someone who does nails, manicurist, nail tech.

And I was the one she trained on all the time. So sometimes I would go to school and I couldn't get finger and I polish off my fingers. But I do love a foot massage, a hand massage, and a scout massage. Okay. Like to me, that's the ultimate. Have three people at once. Okay, that's like a fantasy.

Yeah. You know, like in the cartoons of the old school movie, there's a guy like a big feather and they're feeding them grapes? It's like a palm tree leaf. That to me is someone doing hands, feet, and rubbing my scalp at the same time. Is that what you see Keith, like, sitting there getting this from Nicole? Well, but that's only one foot at a time. Yeah, it's just a one foot manicure.

You've got to get it all done at once. That's the ultimate. A marriage proposal is interrupted by a man confessing to a crime. This is a viral video that I'm going to play you the audio from in a second. A TikToker from Savannah, Georgia, recently uploaded a video showing what happened immediately after her boyfriend proposed to her. This is hilarious because you just see him proposed. They're in, like, on this little walkway. And this guy comes walking from behind.

them, walks in the screen, walks right by them. He's on the phone talking to somebody, and he says all this stuff. So he admitted to getting drunk, and then he says, I hit a woman or somebody dressed like a woman. I'm not sure I didn't stop. Completely unaware. This is crazy. Just picture it in your head. Guy on his knee gets up.

They're like hugging. They finish, and he just walks from out of the shot. And I was driving, and I hit a woman. Somebody dressed like a woman. I'm not sure. I didn't stop. And he walks right out. It's the craziest video.

Did he just keep walking? Yeah, no, he didn't know the phone was there. It's crazy. It's amazing. An average woman pops 400, excuse me, pops 4,153 pimples in her lifetime. Oh my gosh. I have one on my neck right now. Okay.

That I cannot. It's, it's raising its head, but it's too early to pop. When's Amy coming back? Like two hours. Okay. But here's the thing you have to wait for it. You can't just pop it if it's not ready. That's true.

Or else it gets infected. It gets really red and not good. A new study figured how many? pimples, the average person will pop in their lifetime. The average woman pops 4,153 pimples. The average man, 3,800. And mostly it's because women have a life expectancy of 80 years and men 75.1. Finally, blocking middle seats on airplanes reduces risk of COVID-19.

You know, we flew back from Los Angeles last week, and Delta had the middle seat blocked. Southwest did not. Heck, Southwest said they were putting people on laps. Oh, well. I was like, come on, I do get on somebody's lap. It was a tail of two towns, man. It was crazy. I liked having that middle seat open, honestly.

Oh, yeah, it's good. Just for room. Not even for COVID. Even when it's not COVID, without that middle seat, it's a really nice. There you go. That's a pile of stories. Thank you very much. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news.

With lunchbox. Stay home, it's something good. 16-year-old girl named Addie Alcock in New York. She's babysitting for a two-year-old and a six-month-old. And the six-month-old all of a sudden becomes unresponsive. She's like, oh, no, starts doing CPR.

Calls 911. Unresponsive for three minutes, but she keeps going. Keeps going. Brings the baby back to life, full recovery expected. And now the mom says, I don't know what to do. So she started to go-fund me, the mom of the kid, trying to send this girl to college. Well, I mean,

a babysitter. 16 years old. Crazy. That's the babysitter you want. That's wild. And the GoFundMe is college fund for a teenage hero. Yeah. Hopefully trying to send this 16 year old to college for saving the kid's life.

Man, that's a great story. That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. This will be my last morning corny. Tomorrow, morning corny. Amy can't wait. I mean, I've resorted to reading three at the time just to get one single laugh. When you doving your best, I'm sorry, we're not really laughing at your jokes.

That's okay. I appreciate that. And you guys have helped tremendously. For example, this is Danielle who left this from Italy. I had a morning's morning for y'all. What's the difference between people from Dubai and Abu Dhabi. People from Dubai don't like the Flintstones, but people from Abidabu. Have a great morning.

A little international flavor. Oh, I like that. Here is another one this is left last night, too. Did you hear about the chameleon who couldn't change colors? He had a reptile dysfunction. See ya. And finally, here's number three. Got a joke for Amy.

My grandson's five and he says, Why did the duck go to the hospital? And then he starts laughing and he says, because he's a quack head. Five-year-old said, though, huh? Thank you all for your help. I really needed it. One final time.

Let's go. The morning corny. What do you call a tiny mother? What do you call a tiny mother? A minimum. Minimum. Minimum. Okay, yeah.

All right. You know another one? Yes, please. I broke my finger last week. Okay, okay, what happened? On the other hand, I'm okay. Thank you. Why don't they play poker in the jungle?

Why don't they play poker in the jungle? Too many cheetahs. Cheetahs. Cheetahs. It is. There. Close it up. Thank you. Oh, boy. That was the morning corny. Can't wait for Amy to see back.

Later. She'll be not later today, but she'll be doing that tomorrow. I'm pretty sure Amy will be in coming up in the next 15, 20 minutes or so. So it'll be good to have her back after she's been gone a couple of weeks. I do want to grab a couple calls first. This is Carly in Missouri. Carly, how are you? Thank you for calling the show. I'm good.

How are you, Bobby? Doing pretty good. What can I help you with? Well, I've been a long-time listener, but I'm a little bit late to your bare-bones book. I'm just starting reading it. And it's kind of cool to hear your life way back then because I've been listening for years. But you talked about how if you ever got married, your best man would for sure be your friend, Courtney. So I just thought that was funny.

I wanted to kind of call you out on that. Well, my best man is not Courtney. Breaking news. Courtney is a groomsman But he is not best man I wrote that book probably five or six years ago And although Eddie was one of my best friends Then I think Eddie has now pulled ahead in the power rankings

To number one I didn't realize that you wrote that in that book Yeah huh I mean I guess I probably wrote it seven or eight years ago Yeah Yeah and you were probably two or three then Sure But now Eddie has pulled up to a strong number one

Courtney's obviously still up there But he lives in Houston now And we see each other about once a year So Courtney is a groomsman, but he is not best man, although I did write it in the book. I think when I told him, well, I met him. He was in Oklahoma at the time, and I was like, hey, Caitlin and I are in Tulsa, where she lives in Fort Gibson. And he was somewhere else. And I said, hey, he was in Oklahoma City.

He said, meet us in whatever. And I give him his watch and has his name, you know, inscribed on it. I say, hey, man, I want you to be a groomsman. And I think he was excited, but he was like, wait, I'm not the best man. He's like, but in the book, it says. He'll promise, man. He opens the book. Page 132 says I'm the best man.

Yes, yes, Carly. Thank you for calling that out, because a lot of people have hit me on DM about that. But he is a groomsman, but he is not the best man. That goes to Eduardo, my friend here. That's funny. Awesome. Thanks, Bobby.

Thank you very much. Hope you have a great day. You too. Bye-bye. Lacey in Alabama, you are now on the Bobby Bone show. Lacey, what's happening? I was calling to talk about my bachelor at party. Okay, go ahead.

I'm about to have a bachelor party. Yeah, let me hear it. I know. I hope that yours doesn't suck like mine did, and you don't need to redo. Why, what happened? So my matron of honor invited all the girls to her condo for the weekend, and we went out to the bar, and keep in mind she's married at the time. She's the matron of honor.

Well, she's hanging all over this guy at the bar, who she used to date. And so I go up to her and tell her, we need to go. You know, well, she doesn't want to leave, of course. So I tell her, look, you're hanging all over the sky at the bar, you're married, your husband, and son her down the road. We really need to go. And she rairs back and slaps me. Jerry, Jerry, Jerry. So what did you do?

And so I just kind of stood there dumbfounded for a while. And me and the other girls left to go back to the condo. And she and her two friends that she brought along got a taxi to go back to the condo as well. and when we got there, things just escalated. One of my best friends punched her in the face. Nice. And it was a mess. So she just kicked us out of the condo.

We had nowhere to go for the weekend. It was absolutely horrible. That sounds horrible. I mean, all kidding aside, the reason I say nice and we laughed because it sounds like something from a TV show, not real life. Yeah, that stinks. Do you talk to this girl at all anymore?

So she apologized after the fact, and she was still in the wedding, but after the wedding, we don't talk. She was still in the wedding after she slapped you? I mean, it was just a few weeks away. I really didn't have a choice at that point. We'd already bought dresses and the whole nine. So she apologized and we were cordial and, you know, the wedding went on.

But then we don't talk now. Yeah, I get it. That stinks. Well, I'm sorry that happened to you. Hopefully Eddie doesn't slap me at mine. No, I'm going to try my best not to punch you. I would beat the crap out of you if you slap me. And then after that, we would probably laugh about it, though.

I'd still be in your wedding. No, no, no. We wouldn't laugh either. All right. Hey, thank you, Lacey, for the call. I hate that happened. I never redo. Well, you do deserve a redo. I will say this about mine because I can't really say what we're doing.

I don't know if I ever can. Uh-oh. But I can say it will be... Nah, I'm going to hold off a little bit. I'm going to hold off a little bit. You're so close. I know, it's so close. Amy's back in the studio for the first time in a couple weeks,

and we'll get to what you've missed over the past couple weeks later. Well, I had Mike D put together an extensive report of everything you have missed from this show the last 14 days. Oh, yeah, because I have no idea. I for sure need a rundown. I do, too, sometimes. Yeah. So Amy is back.

She's back in. That being said, let's go and go to this next segment here. So Lunchbox has been writing letters to celebrities. You were here for this, right? Yes, as a child. Yes. To three celebrities as a seven-year-old. You wrote to who?

Oprah? The Rock and Carrie Underwood. And why? Because we talked about writing letters to famous people when we were kids, and I wondered, oh, if we still do that, would they respond? And so I picked three of the biggest celebrities out there, all different genres, and said, let a rip. All right, Monday check-in. Have we heard back from Oprah? Well, I've been waiting at the mailbox every day for that mailman for that Oprah letter, and nothing so far from Oprah.

Yeah. Have we heard back from Mr. the Rock? Mr. the Rock. No, we have not heard from Mr. the Rock. I know he's. he has that new TV show out, so maybe he hasn't been checking his mail lately, and that's why I haven't heard back. So nothing from The Rock. No. The one that we think will come earlier than the other, is the one to Carrie Underwood. Absolutely.

I mean, she was right down the road last night at the ACM. Surely she's checking her mail. Didn't even have to go that far. Have we heard back from Carrie Underwood? Well, last Wednesday, I was out there at the mailbox and this big Manila envelope. No way! No way! Come on. And it was someone saying, hey, we'll buy your house.

Oh. Oh, I thought it looked like an official letter like something cool. It was just like spam mail. So nothing from carrying underwood either. So nothing from any of the celebrities. No, nothing. Striking out. All right.

It's still early. It's still early, guys. Well, check in next week. I'll tell you this. One of our listeners did some research for me because as a kid, I wrote a letter to Hulk Hogan. He was like, I hope you're okay, Hulk. He was in the hospital. He was body slammed, right?

And so I got a postcard. back and at one I wanted if Hulk even signed it and then two I thought as an adult was he even injured someone did some research turns out he took some time I'll shoot a movie at the time he wasn't at the hospital he wasn't at the hospital right well and I was curious about that too because isn't wrestling fake so like even if he is body slammed does it really hurt well yes it still hurts and people get hurt all the time doing it but I think that was a storyline okay wrestling just confuses me it's extremely athletic okay but it's fake and incredible um The physical part of it's not.

The actual I'm angry, you know, some of the severity of some of the moves. It's choreographed. But all that hitting is not fake. Okay. All right. Yeah. I'm getting offended. It's like I'm going to love it again.

No, Jimmy. Hei, that's real. Ultimate Warrior rules. I just don't know anything about it other than what y'all tell me. And I just was confused how someone landed themselves in the hospital from a fake wrestling match. But you can get in the hospital all the time from matches. I hear what you're saying. You good, you good, buns?

Oh my gosh, I always want to say that. So I need some sound advice. I am getting married in October, and I just first let me say I am not confrontational. I am a lover, not a fighter. I run away from confrontation. I have a best. best friend for 15 years and then I have another best friend for about eight years.

Well, naturally, everyone thinks the longer one is going to be my matron of honor and she is not. So I had a conversation with her and told her, you know, I chose our other best friend. She lives by me and it just makes more sense. And she's, the other one has just been super rude to her and there's, you know, she's been mean to her for no reason. It wasn't her choice. It was my choice. So we have a bachelorette trip coming up.

and we're actually going to Nashville. I hope to be able to visit the studio. But I don't know what to do or how to make, how to keep the peace. I think, and I come to you now, someone who is experiencing a little bit of the same thing. I don't have people fighting amongst each other, but it's a difficult decision because here I have two of my best friends, Amy and Eddie, and I'm like, well, one of you guys got to be the best man. And I don't want a girl.

It's just going to throw the whole side of the wedding off. That's what I told Amy. I was like, I've got to be honest with you. It's going to, my OCD is going to kick in hard. And also, Caitlin Namie are very close. And Caitlin wanted her and her sight as well. So it made that decision easier for me. But that was tough.

And then Courtney, who I've been best friends with forever. But again, he lives in, you know, Houston now. We don't get to see each other, but once a year. So through the power of deduction, I deduced that Eddie was the man for the job. Is Courtney mad about that? Not at all. Not at all. Like on your bachelor trip.

Or your bachelor. You think Amy's been treating you badly lately? That's why. No, no, no, no. But like, you're going to be able to have a party with your boys and there's not going to be any tension or fighting. And unfortunately, for her, it sounds like there might be. This is what I would, all I'm doing, I'm telling you that story is background to go. I felt you having to make those decisions. That's a tough decision to make. And then who to put in your wedding and who not. All that's, but you can, first of all, you can't worry about that outside of the decisions you make. I would pull aside the mean girl and say, hey, you're only being mean because you're hurt. I get that. I'm really sorry. Here's the actual reason why. I love you just as much, but I can't plan stuff with you here. The easiest thing is to tell the truth and then let it fall where it may, but you still love her. It just wasn't the easiest to pick her for the matron of honor spot. And that's it.

She has to respect that. If she's your friend and she loves you, she doesn't want to make this hard on you. That's bull crap, man. So it's an uncomfortable conversation, but you go, look, Sally, if you lived closer, you would be my matron of honor. No doubt about it. Amy, if you had a wiener, you'd be up there in the running for best man. No doubt about it. No doubt.

Seems to be the case for... I'm just kidding. A lot of women have to deal with that. Listen. With being best man? No, I'm joking. Like, in life. Boundaries are new to me.

What's the caller's name? Sorry, I didn't... Mindy. Boundaries are new to me, and I would say you might have to get firm with Sally. and if she can't hear you and respect you and understand that she's kind of like souring the whole situation, then you might have to set a boundary of like, I don't know that I'm going to want you at our Bachelorette party.

You are the weakest league, goodbye? That's what I do. Yeah. Like it's, unfortunately this is something she needs to work through, but like Bobby said, express how you feel and explain that you would like for everybody to get along. And if she can't do that, then she shouldn't come. And she's rooted in hurt.

Yes. She's not rooted in meanness. I agree. She's hurting. Therefore, her way is to react that way. Some people like myself, when I'm hurt, I shut down. Her reaction technique is to go and be angry. But she's hurting.

Address that. I promise you you can fix this. She cares about your friendship too much. Okay, Mindy, Mandy, Mandy, Mandy. You got this, though. Hang in. This is about you. This is your good time.

Okay? Yes, sir. All right. I appreciate it. Thank you, guys. Go get it. Congratulations. Thank you.

Bye. A little bit. I've been offended for my bachelor party. Why? I get offended. It's not for right now. I'll tell you on the air,

next segment three, maybe tomorrow, but I'm still a little triggered. Who offended you? It's a part of the tease, doesn't it? Well, I would be teased by it. Now I'm wondering, like,

is it me? What did I do? I'm going to leave it there for now. Maybe. It's not. Not you. Don't worry. It's not you.

Amy's back in studio today after two weeks gone. And I had Mike D make a report of things Amy has missed. And when you look at it all together, you realize we are a dumb show. Okay. Well, now I'm excited to see what I missed. Well, here's some stuff that you missed over the last two weeks. Okay. I got crushed online for asking Jason Aldine for marriage advice.

Oh. He was on. I'm about to get married. Yeah. I forgot about the whole cheating situation. Yeah. And I was like, hey, man, what's... Give me some marriage advice.

I got just walloped in the comments section. Well, if anything, he's now been married twice, so he might have more advice for you. I agree. Sometimes you go through struggle. You mess up, you learn more. Yes. And I like Jason, but you talk about going into a bad. That was in my neighborhood.

Usually I say, I don't go to the Facebook page. I want to go to that neighborhood. Like, it came to me. Ramundo got Brotox. Oh, we did? In his forehead. And we had his plastic surgeon on to talk about that. How is it how you feel in?

I feel awesome. I did have some wrinkles. I was showing my age. I mean, I'm 35, but I don't look it. So there you go. Oh, okay. Also, something that happened in the last two weeks while you were gone. Eddie is painting his nails this week.

That's right. Yeah, no, I saw that. He's got black fingernails? Amy, how's it going? No, I can barely, it's like I can barely look at them. That's what my wife says. Not that men painting their nails, that's fine. That's one thing, but it's Eddie.

It doesn't fit your vibe. Oh, see, I agree. trying to find his mid-age vibe right now. With the sunglasses and then now the nail polish and I don't know. The sunglasses thing didn't work. But as far as the fingernails goes, my goal is for people to look at me like they see me with four kids and a wife and they're like, oh, family man. Wait a second. But why not just be family man?

Because there's a little bit of still coolness in me. So I want them to look at me and be like, family man, but wait, this guy has an edge to him. I like that. This is what you remind me of right now. A middle-aged version of My Chemical Romance. Is this glass parade? Huh? This is my chemical romance.

Yeah, I like this song. Welcome to the Black Parade. Yeah, I love Black Parade. Is that what it's called? This is you, though, but it's too old. It's like his dad. When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city to see a marching band. This is me.

It's a younger you, not now. But you see what I'm saying? You see like when people see me, they're like at Lowe's, you're shopping for like home improvement stuff. And they're like, wait a second. This dude has black fingernail paint. I have two more. I'll give you more throughout the show. Lunchbox has a new TikTok lane.

What is it? Well, we were talking about what we can do. You know, mine is talking about country music and lists. And Eddie's is opening boxes. Lunchboxes is eating stuff out of trash cans. Or just like off the ground. Like food that's not mine. I just find food and I eat it.

That's many. Is it the most of you've ever gotten on TikTok? It is, and I don't understand. People say, and all the comments are, this is so gross, don't do this. Oh, this is so gross, don't do this. But then they watch it. So I don't know. Radio lunchbox on TikTok.

All right. That's his lane. He'll go to a trash can of his food. He goes in and eats it. I love it. And then finally, the police found the guy who broke into Caitlin's grandfather's place. Oh, wow. And the sheriff called us out of the blue and was like, hey, we got him.

He was in another state. He was in Georgia. Or Virginia or North Carolina. Or somewhere. So he's locked up? He's now in jail. I hope he stays there for a long, long time. He will.

That's five, so far, five things you've missed. We'll do another list, and I think we need the numbers next time we do it. Number five. Oh, yeah. Number four. All dumb stuff. Oh, yeah. When I was reading this list today, I asked Mike, I said, do we do all this in the last two weeks?

This is some dumb stuff. Well, anyway, glad you're back. Glad to be back. Glad you're back. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Yeah, home it's something good. Foster parent Jennifer already has a five-month-old son named Finnegan, but she's been fostering three siblings for four years now.

And after waiting so long, she's finally able to adopt them and they're all going to be one happy family. Four years. I love these stories. Like, it's a happy story. But, man, it makes me, like, freak out a little bit because I'm a foster parent and I've had mine for two years. Yeah, that's what I was saying four years. That's a long time, man. So do you think that they will be?

your real kids this year, this calendar year. I have no doubt that they will be my kids at some point in the near future. I'm hoping it'll be before this year ends. Would you bet on it being before December 31st, 2021? Well, I've always heard gamblers like don't bet with your heart. So I wouldn't bet that because my heart says it's going to happen as a gambler. What is your, what is your head say? My head says, like, be smart. Like this, the, The state just drags things out. I mean, gosh, man. Our end goal for everything to start moving as far as a process is August.

Yeah. So if things start moving in August, whereas like, all right, the court is finally moving, papers are being done in August, then I would start betting. But right now, oh, my head says just don't bet on it. Well, shout out to her. What's her name again? Yes, her name is Jennifer Tvetter. And you know what?

When you have yours and they're now your kids officially, That's going to be the biggest tell me something good. Yes, it is. And I love reading the celebrations they have when this happens. They had, you know, a drive-by parade and all that, but I cannot wait to celebrate big when these kids become ours. Well, heck, they're going to go to the time you get them. So it'll be like, there are.

There are. There they go. That's what I worry about. All right, that's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.

My husband and I played the lottery for our very first time, and we ended up winning. So my husband is a medical professional, and has been working crazy hours lately. We have three kids, and he was coming home from work pretty late one night and asked if he could pick up our old oldest daughter who's five and take her to the gas station and just had like some one-on-one-time with her. And so he picked her up and he went to the gas station and was like, what's something fun that I could do with her and decided to pick up a scratch-off ticket so she could have fun scratching off a little surprise.

And when she did, she's like, hey, Dad, we have a match. and my husband's like oh really that's awesome and he's like how much is it and she said it's $100 and then she goes oh wait dad I think there are more zeros than that and he's like really turns out we won $10,000

come on come on that's awesome have you got your money yet or what do you do when you win that much money yes okay so when you win over $600 you have to go to the like actual office to pick it up

which is three hours away. Wow. So, and you have to go like during business hours. So I loaded my kids up in the car during the week. We made a trip out of it. We drove three hours down to get our lot of money and came back. So it's real. It's legit.

That's so funny. It's also so fun. What are you going to do with that money? You know, we have a lot of them to pay off. So because he's a resident. So we will probably do some fun things with it. and then kind of used it for some loans. But my daughter, she was one that scratched it off.

She's like, Mom, can I please get some water balloon? So we're going to get here some water balloons. That's awesome. Congratulations, Brooke. And thank you for calling. Tell your husband and kids, we say hello, okay? Yeah, yeah, of course. Thank you guys.

All right, bye-bye. When Mike D and I were in California doing American Idol last week, I said, hey, you know what to be a fun TikTok? Because I bought a few scratch-offs. And I did the whole first part. And then I said, hey, come back for part two, and then I revealed the winners. And so we did that and he got a bunch of,

views. It's thought it'd be something fun to do. And then I got on Instagram live and did a couple scratchoffs, but I did like a talk show during the scratch offs. And he had 250,000 people to watch me. What was your talk show about? Yeah, I was just talking about crap. But people wanted to see, it was like opening the eggs. Yeah, they want to know if you want. Yeah. And so I was like, what if we treated this like those magic eggs that Eddie's kids watch? Surprise eggs, yeah. And as I'm talking about stuff, they're watching me scratch. And so I did an Instagram live talking about stuff and scratching. And I was like, I cannot believe people watch this. And then I started watching it back again myself and I was like this is good and then I was kind of like well I get it

like I wanted to know if I already knew but so I did another one got 200,000 views I did another one yesterday and I'm buying I'm doing two things one I'm talking about stuff like for example I'm trying to get Scott Stapp from Creed on the show but I was talking about that in the scratch off and I posted another one yesterday it's got 100,000 views so this is the new thing magic eggs I'm gonna scratch off and do a talk show and people we're gonna win but I'm down a ton of money so yeah we need to some scratch offs here. I'm playing the big tickets because the big tickets have the best odds.

I'm down $300 right now. How much are you doing a show? $30 a ticket, two tickets. And I'm starting to go broke from this little gag. But what if one day you do it in a bit? And I hit, listen, I don't want to ruin this, but I hit yesterday.

Okay. If you go to my Instagram, I swear. I swear, don't look at me like that. I hit yesterday. And you know what I did, Amy? I matched the two numbers, 77 to 77, and then I didn't scratch what the win was until the end.

And then I scratched it off. And we experience it together, me and all my people on Instagram. The big prize? So it's up there now. You can see now. Okay. Mr. Bobby Bones is my Instagram name, but that's the thing. That's the new way to hook people in.

But I can't believe it, $10,000. That is wild. I don't know what I would do. Let's go over and do the news. Bobby's Big. Story. A mom wins TikTok's biggest baby birth weight trend with a 14-pound baby. Wow, there's a TikTok trend.

People were showing, hey, look how big my baby was when it came out. There's a trend for everything. Yeah, so it was just people showing pictures of how big their baby was when it came out. And so this one mom, her username is Shan's 1588. Here's a clip of her. At 38 weeks and one day, I had my second son via C-section by two doctors. Because he came in at a whopping 14 pounds, 0.6 ounces. Wow.

23 and 3 quarter inches long. Yes, I gave birth to a toddler who then spent 11 days in the NICU where clearly he was the biggest baby in there. The NICU did not even have diapers for him or clothes. They had to go up to pediatrics to get size three diapers. And he came home in clothing six to nine months. That's him. Looks like a four-year-old.

The doctor rolled him up. Looks like he's had chicken bride's day. right before he came out. It crazy. So that was the first way I wanted to bring up. Another one is, an Arizona woman wakes up to find her tire

slashed and a severed finger in her driveway. What happened? Someone apparently left a grisly clue in the driveway, the lady. I would assume that they were slashing the tires and accidentally cut their finger on.

Oh, my goodness. I don't think it was a tire cut and here's a finger. Oh. Francesco Weekoff, a former firefighter in EMT, got a surprise Thursday morning when she left the house,

found a severed finger on the ground. It was right near her new GMC Yukon. Two of her tires were slashed. Judging from the trail of blood leading to the house next door, she thinks she knows who did it. She said that she and her husband were at a get-together Wednesday night when her male neighbors became intoxicated and started a physical altercation with the couple. He was asked to leave even like that. So he tried to retaliate by slashing my tires. However, he left a consolation prize, which was the finger. Yeah. I guess if he was intoxicated, maybe that's how it happened. The finger part.

A little bit you go, dang, I hate that my tires were slashed, but you go, he-he-he, they lost their finger. You don't want to be like that. No. At all, but how about that? You're the guy that slashed the tires. You're in trouble. And now you lost your, and now we know it's you. And you left the trail of blood.

Hey, four-finger Frankie. Come here. Walk up to the judge. Show them your hand. All right, let's do more news. Bobby's story. They predict the Johnson and Johnson vaccine will come back to Mark. with restrictions or warnings by Friday.

This is how good you should feel about the vaccine. Literally six people and seven million were affected by this and they still shut it down for a bit. That's how good you should feel about it. Think about that. That's nothing. That's getting struck by lightning twice. Oh yeah. Good point.

And still with that, they said, hey, let's hold off for a second. I think people are chasing their wrong tail here. When people were like, see, we told you Johnson & a Jones. We told you the vaccine. No, it's the opposite. Six and seven million. People will get sicker off Advil. or like normal stuff and have reactions to it.

Because there were six out of seven million. They said, let's hold off. Let's see exactly who it's affecting. Almost nobody. And let's put warnings on it and make sure people know it's safe. Like I love that they've pulled back just to show people how safe it is and how much they're looking out for folks. Does that make sense? Yeah.

It's kind of the yang. Most people are going the other way. The yin. The yin. The yin. But I think that's, this is exactly what we want. I would still get this one today. But obviously, and if you don't want the vaccine, that's your call.

I have no problem with that. But I'm a big back. Listen, I've had one on every arm. I got two over here, two over here. I got one on my thigh today. I'm trying to get all of them just in case. The more, the better. Finally, this year's ACM winners from last night,

congratulations to Luke Bryan. Love it. Obviously, that's my guy. We work together, friends, but he deserves it. And sometimes he doesn't get nominated for stuff because of the end. Angelina Jolie effect, which is when she was winning, like, hottest person four or five years in a row back in the day, people just stopped putting her on list at all. They're like, well, she's had it so many times.

She doesn't deserve it anymore. Well, that's not true. Same with Luke. He had won so many things. People were like, we're just not going to put him on lists anymore. That's not fair. Luke won. I love it.

Congratulations. Top male vocalist, Thomas Rett. Top female vocalist, uh, female vocalist, Marin Morris. Old Dominion, one group of the year. Dan and Shea won vocal. duo on and on. Congratulations to all those folks. A good episode of American Idol last night.

I did not watch the ACMs. I watched American Idol, mostly because I was on it. Sure. I would do the same thing. Yeah. It was a great episode, though. I got more comments last night about a jacket I was wearing. Oh, yeah?

Any clothing article I've ever... What was it? I went to Zara in the mall. Oh, it's the best. Zara's legit. And he got it for $70 the night before. And because I was going to go and they were like, hey, it's a little chilly.

And I didn't bring clothes. to shoot in chilly weather in California. So I was like, crap. So Caitlin and I went to the mall. And I was like, let's just go look for something. I was like, this jacket's cool. Took it in, wore it. People were like, that's such a high dollar fancy jacket.

I was like, no, I got it from them all. What are you going to say? I just thought, I just realized you were in L.A. I was like, wait a second. The Zara opened here. It did open here. Oh, it did? Like a week.

Amy's been gone for a couple weeks. She's out of touch. Yeah, it's been open. Okay, I can't wait. It is such a great. And if you don't have one near you, you can shop online. and they have great kids clothes. Great kids' clothes.

Yes, super cheap. Not a commercial, by the way. Yeah. They don't pay us. All right, that's what's up. That's the news. Close it up, Ramundo. Bobby's Day.

Story. Let's go over to Rachel in Virginia. Rachel, thank you for calling the Bobby Bone show. What's going on with you? Hi, Bobby. Not much. I was just calling because I was trying to get a hold of you last week. I saw your TikTok on the scratch house, and I have a story for you.

Go ahead. So this is several years ago, but my husband, he died scratchouts all the time, came home, having my daughter scratching them off. I was up because I just got out of the shower. And my daughter comes up, she's like, Mommy, come downstairs. I said, Mom, come down there. And I want to show you something. And he's like, take a look at it.

And like, yeah, what about it? He's like, no, take a look at it again. So I look closer. And I was like, no way. We want $250,000 on a scratcher. What? Unbelievable. So what did you do?

So I will process, it's like, no way, like this isn't real, you know, like I couldn't believe it. It's like, he's like, oh, seriously, you know, it's real. We were both kind of like, oh, my gosh, oh, my gosh. So first thing, Monday morning, he called, we live in Virginia. So he had to call the, you know, VA lottery down in Richmond. And it was legit. He drove down there. He took our daughter.

Our youngest one was still in preschool at home. So he took her. They drove down. They got their check. He got, you know, one of the last. those big, huge checks, you know, like the face ones that they take your picture with. We actually still have it hidden away in our house. And, yeah, it's crazy.

That's amazing. Who did you tell? Did you tell your friends you won the money? No. We told our family and we told one of our friends only because at the time they were helping me watch my daughter because I got a job at my kids' school. so they were helping us watch her for free. You know, they were kind of like,

yeah, when we're home, we'll help you out. So we feel bad because we were like, okay, like we won this money and they're watching our kid for us. And we told because we gave them money, we gave them money for watching our kid. So we told them why we're giving it to them. That's awesome. That's amazing.

Well, that's a great story. I feel like you're hiding from someone right now. I know. Okay, listen, here's the thing. Please come and save me. I'm in the closet. I'm upstairs. Yes.

So you're at work right now, Rachel? No, no, no, I'm not at work. I'm actually at home. I'm just stupid. I was just like, I don't know. We didn't tell anybody, so I'm just kind of like keeping on the down, though. We still haven't told her. Oh, she's still being secretive.

Oh, yeah. If you talk quieter on the air, it won't go out as far. Yeah, and your voice isn't as recognizable. Okay. Hey, Rachel. We'll talk to you soon, Rachel and Virginia. Yeah. All right, bye.

Oh, that's cool. I was looking at this guy. He tried to fight a grizzly bear. this is back a few years ago but just now he's been fined but he has way too much to drink he goes and he tries to he takes off his shirt

he goes and starts shouting at a young grizzly in a boxing stance it's not a baby it's a young it's like a cub but it's still I'm looking at it now it's still standing up probably five feet tall right

young but it's on all fours but if it's still up probably five feet tall and he's like come on and he's trying to fight But so they have now fined him $4,000. And they said, I pay this. And I was thinking, what they should do is go, hey, buddy, you want to fight a grizzly bear? You have two options here.

Do it. Oh, boy. You can pay the $4,000. Or how about 30 seconds with the mama? There we go. You want to be a big man and try to fight on a baby grizzly bear in a park. You can not pay the $4,000. You do 30 seconds.

He can die. Yeah, Mama could kill him. That's up to him. He wants to go punching a bear. When it's going to go find an animal. Pick on someone your own size. Did he punch that bear? Did he eventually like touch it?

Caught on camera by a couple of nearby photographers. They were taking pictures of the bear when they saw the guy run out there without a shirt. It finally went to trial and it doesn't say if he actually punched the bear. But he does. He's in a stance like trying to box the bear. I'm looking at the picture right now. Amy, I was going to read you some of these things.

We did five of them already. Things that you've missed over the past two weeks. Okay. and let's do the second set of five. Here we go. Number five. I did announce before you got in today, another groomsman, Courtney. Okay.

My friend who now lives in Houston, who in my first bucket, I did say it probably be best man. Right. But then I kind of talked through that. That was six, seven years ago. Since then, I just fallen in love with Eddie. Thanks, Jane. What can you do about that? But he's still in.

Another groomsman was announced. That's number five. Number four. Me, Eddie, Lunchbox, Ray Mundo, and Mike D are all now fully vaxed. Oh, congrats. And I'm over my two-week point. I went to the gym twice this weekend. I went and cycled on Saturday with Caitlin and then went to my boxing gym yesterday on Sunday.

You can do all the things. Free as a bird. Did you lick everything? I licked everything and had everything lick me. It was a double. So that's number four. Number three. Abby, our phone screener, came in and played for you in Amy versus Lunchbox.

And? And she lost twice. Oh, which is that? Yes. Yes. The score is now four to zero lunchbox. Wait. Sorry, Amy.

Okay. I didn't take it easy on her. Wow. Okay. That's interesting. Number two. Ray Mundo has been making a killing off of Cameo. Oh, how much?

He can't even fulfill his needs. What's the rate? Well, I had him raise the price because he was getting too many. Ray, what are you talking here? We're a total that I've made? Yeah. Over a thousand? No, but I would like to know what is your rate for a rate?

What do you think it is? What do you think of fair rate to get Ray and Bay? They're together. Oh, Ray and Bay together? 50 bucks. Okay. It was $25. Yeah.

He had so many he couldn't fulfill. Somebody gave him a zero star review on cameo. So I said, Ray, raise your rate. He raises a 30. Okay. So he's at 30 now. I'd say eventually maybe you could see where it goes and maybe go up. That's what I said.

Especially if it's you and supply and demand. Yeah. And the cat? Oh, yeah. The cat shows up. If you look into your box right now, how many do you have waiting that you need to do? We have like three, but four days is what they allow you to do them, so we're in no rush. But you're doing a lot.

If you're, you're charging $25,000 and you've got over $1,000. Like, you're busy. Yeah, we knocked out over a 50 easily. And there's tips involved as well. Whoa, people can tip on cameo? Mm-hmm. Ray's been killing it. That's what you should know.

Oh. Number one. And then number one is, obviously, I took over the morning corny. Oh, and how's that been going? I have a lot of sympathy for how hard it is to get last for that stupid segment. Oh, okay. I was doing like three or four in a row. I'm always just rapid fire shooting them off.

Trying to get any laugh. Yeah, welcome to what it's like. It's tough. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't hear. I still laugh at them myself, so it's fine. You do. I think that's the difference.

You actually enjoy the jokes. Yeah. Me, I'm like, oh my goodness, we had to do this again. So Amy will be back doing the corny tomorrow. Yeah. Listeners were also calling and leaving them on the voicemail and I was playing them. Oh, okay. That's helpful.

But let's take a second and talk about you. So when your dad passed away, I went on the air and I said, Hey, Amy's dad died. Just kind of gave everybody an idea of what happened to you. I said she said she's coming back in two days. And I was like, I don't think she should come back in two days. And then, yeah, I don't think that was realistic for me. Just because just for, and not that there's so much happening in my life that I think it's been known for at least to listeners that have been listening all the time, like for several

months now, even the end of last year. There's just a lot happening. And my dad dying is probably the last thing I was thinking I would add to my list, especially because he had literally just moved in with me and I was excited about that time like just totally unexpected turn of events which now I'm thankful you know we had one full night with him at my house like the whole process of moving him in we had a caregiver she worked for a day like just so many things now but I think maybe he needed that maybe his body was kind of had some stuff going on that we didn't even know of and he needed that night with us and some special memories and then yeah I I had to end up calling an ambulance and then he was in the hospital.

But honestly, when the ambulance was loading him up, he was like, love you. And I was like, love you. I'll probably pick you up tomorrow. They're going to get your blood pressure. Like, we'll figure it out. They'll get you good. And, you know, I'll see you tomorrow. And that night, he went on life support.

I never talked to my dad again. And, you know, that was just something. I was still in denial, though, even though the doctor was like, hey, you should call siblings. Like, I have a sister and a half brother and a half sister. He's like, I think they should come. You know, well, we don't know. He could turn around. And I'm thinking, what? So I am still working at this point. Still coming in. And I think I'm in denial. And then I found out later, I guess my sister had texted you. I didn't know that at the time. But I think she texted you. Like, I don't think Amy should work anymore. And I said, I've been telling Amy not to work.

Right. And I was like, what? What? I didn't realize. the severity. And being that he was on life support and his body was kind of declaring that it was time, we, we had to make the tough decision, me and my three other siblings. All of his kids were gathered around him. And we, after several days, we even put it off a day. We were going to do it one day. And they were like, oh, we can't do it. So we had one more day with him and then removed him from life support and but his body was ready like it was it felt right and the hospital we were at they were amazing I've never been through anything like that ever I mean I was with my mom for her final breath but she hurt she it was natural like well I mean I guess his was too but she wasn't on any kind of life

support the cancer had kind of taken over but then reliving this with my dad um was was a powerful moment and you know we I even told Bobby this like we had a place going and it was just crazy because my favorite song in the world and my dad's is george straight amarilla by morning and we had the playlist on shuffle and the songs are shuffling through we had no idea when the doctor was like actually doing the final thing that would lead him to a final breath and um amarillo by morning finished and then the next song kind of started for a second and then the nurse came in and said hey i just want to jel to know he's he's taken his final breath and we were all just like, you know, there with him and it was super emotional, but we were like, how fitting that he would,

I mean, do you know how many times I've two-step to that song with my dad? And that we just kind of all pictured him like two-stepping his way into heaven. And, you know, then after that, I think the reality of him being gone set in, I went back home. And of course, I had his new bedroom and everything set up. And my family and friends, like, you know, people that went into action and they're like, we need to move all this out. Let's get this back. You know, like, this is too much memory. and then with all the things happening in my life kind of some that people know about some that people don't like everything just I realized if I don't maybe take some sick days and some vacation days like I was talking to work and talking with you and I'm like how can we make this happen like I think

I need to go some go do some like intensive type therapy stuff just so that I can be better and not, you know, let this all completely implode at some point. So I realize not everybody has that type of time, and I'm super grateful for it, and I'm thankful to listeners that were checking in, and I wasn't on social media at all, but I would hear from other people and get different notes or emails. And, yeah, I have a lot of gratitude for the time, and I went, and I got some healing from the trauma, and just some other stuff. And hopefully I'm back a better person.

And I still have a lot of work to do. But I just feel for anybody out there that's going through a lot, whether it's one thing or multiple things at once, like I hope you know that you're not alone. And I hope that you have someone you can talk to and that you can get through it because I feel like I am making my way, like shaking while I'm talking,

making my way to the other side of some hard. stuff and um yeah i just hope i can show up for my job for my family be a mom for my friends and um but show up here because i feel like part of our responsibility of having this platform is sharing some of our story the the good times and the bad and then and showing up for people that also might be going through something hard and in giving them that hope and so i'm thankful i had that time for self-exploitation and i'm back i think i can and i can get through this without, I can come into work. What some people don't know is sometimes, like I was, do you all remember that day right before I kind of left? We were doing something and I was laughing.

Yeah, you laughed until you cried, then you walked out of the room. Right. And my laughter turned to tears. And then there was something else. That wasn't on the air, by the way. That wasn't on the air, but we were recording like a commercial or something and I messed up. I didn't even know I messed up. But you're like, Amy, you read that totally wrong. And I was like, no, I did it. And then I looked at it. And I did. And I was laughing. And then the laughter turned to tears. And that was a thing that I realized like, oh, wait, something's not right with me. And then there was an emotional time right after when my dad was on life support where I should have been crying and I couldn't stop laughing. So that, you know, that was another sign of like, I'm, there's a lot going on. And

I'm also reading a book called The Body Keeps the Score. Highly recommend it. But our bodies know and they can tell us when maybe we've got like a lot of different things going on. And it's going to manifest and show up in different ways. And I don't want mine to manifest and to negative things. I want to try to reframe some of it and it's a lot of work and I know that it's hard. But yeah, again, just want to offer that hope for people because I finally feel like I can laugh and laugh and then cry and cry and not have my emotions cross. But if they do, it's okay. I'm human. Well, I'm glad you're back. Thank you. And I just rambled for a really long time. I'm sorry.

You get your space to ramble sometimes. I'm glad you're back. Yeah. You're always welcome to not be back. You know, I think the hardest thing with you now is telling you to stay home because that was the original conversation. I was like, hey, take weeks off. And you said, no, I'm coming back in two days.

I was like, I'm coming. I said, okay, fine. Can't force you. Well, I think I was using work as a distraction too. And so I think a lot of us can do that. But yeah, my other piece of encouragement would be if you have amazing people around you that can fill in for you and allow you that time, like don't. fight them on it. See that as a message of like, oh, maybe they're onto something. They maybe

see something from 30,000 feet that I don't see. And maybe you do need to practice your breathing and take a walk or go do some intense therapy, whatever it looks like for you. Well, glad you're back. Thank you. You're very loved here. And one day at a time. Yeah. We've both been through it. I know. Sucks. I know. But much weaker people have been through much worse and gotten through it wonderfully and we'll follow their their footsteps yeah i'm excited to see i know that yeah my dad and my mom both i mean but my dad most recently he would not want me um you know feeling sad for him he he had a great life and um he loved what we do like he loved the show i think he was like so excited to like be at the house and be a part of life which included a lot of what we get to do and one of the

last people to see him was actually karen fairchild when she came over she that's That was his last full day at the house and she met him and was super sweet and kind to him. And I don't know. I was excited for him to be a part of my life. But that's okay. He got that one day and it was awesome. All right. We will come back here in just a minute.
