It's Morgan here. It's your best bits of the week. And I'm so excited to be here with y'all this weekend. But, of course, I have to note that today is a really somber, emotional day for a lot of people. It is the 20th anniversary of 9-11. So Scuba Steve and I are going to talk about so many exciting things today, but I didn't want to start the show off without mentioning that. And, you know, coming in the number one spot, we'll also discuss it again.

But I know it's happening today. I know it's going to be an emotional day. So I hope this podcast brings you a few laughs and smiles on a really difficult day for so many people. So Scuba Steve is joining me today to talk about some behind the scenes moments, which is my personal favorite part. of this podcast. You ready? Yeah, of course I'm ready. Let's do it. We got a lot to talk about.

A lot of random things. And in case you haven't listened to this before, I count down seven segments from the show this week that you might have missed or that I think you might need to relive. So I count those down. And along the way, Scoba, Steve and I will talk about just, you know, random moments of life. Who knows? You never know what we get into.

Scuba and I like to talk about aliens a lot too. So who knows, right? 100%. This could be your podcast. All right. Well, here we go, guys. Coming in at number seven, Pity Bit Lunchbox, finally got to share his segment idea that he had. He asked the show for advice. After a pick-a-bit moment happened where we chose Amy's segment and nobody was really excited about it. So then it turned into Pity Bit where Lunchbox got to share his segment idea and he asked for advice on a super awkward situation with his cousin and Facebook. You know, it's always funny when Lunchbox shares a story. especially when it involves his family. Number seven. We've been playing this game called Pick a Bit for weeks.

And the one bit that has never won is Lunchbox's bit about him and his cousin. And so today, we're just going to call it Pity Bit and do it. I actually think it's a pretty good bit. I've never voted for the record. I know. You've never voted. And that's what I'm saying.

These people are just picking the worst. I mean, some of them have been good bits, but some of them been bad. One has been bad. And I just think this bit is very related. and I really don't know what to do. I can't wait to hear it. This is what Lunchbox sent me.

He says, your advice, please. And then he asks, does he have to unfriend your cousin's ex-husband? Yes. So they got divorced in June. It was finalized in June. And me and her are the same age. Not that close growing up. Whatever.

And her husband, cool dude. Played golf a couple times. Happy hours, whatever. And she sends me a message on Facebook. Hey, just checking in to let you know that Pedro and I had our divorce finalized in June. I see you're still friends with him on Facebook. So if you don't mind, could you just unfriend him, please? Hope to see you and the kids soon, Nicole.

And I'm like, awkward. Like, what in the world? And you just said their names. Yeah, who cares, right? Those aren't their real name. Oh, Pedro was the real. You guys. I did.

I thought, oh, Pedro and Nicole, they just made it. So the generic name you picked was Pedro? Well, his name starts with a P, and the first name that bottom of my head was Pedro. So I couldn't. So yes. So she sends me that message on Facebook. Like she's monitoring who's still friends with him. Yeah.

Weird. Weird. And I'm like, that's awkward. Do I have to just kick him out of my life because he's not part of the family? How was there a breakout? Must not have been good. Was it Pedro's fault? Yeah, that's right.

Pedro did some things. Did he? What did Pedro do? Okay, okay, okay. We don't want to say what Pedro did. Right, right. So here we are. Does lunchbox have to unfriend Pedro?

because his cousin asked. Amy. What is it? Blood, blood before. No, there's no rhyme on that one. There's nothing there. Blood before mud. I don't know what you're...

Blood is thicker than water. Facebook friends. Okay. I mean, I would say if it wasn't a, yeah, a very amicable type thing that you just help your cousin out. Do you still like Pedro?

Yeah, nice dude. Like, I mean, he didn't... You saw him and he said, hey man, I'm gonna, you want to go get some lunch sometime? Great. You didn't do anything to me. And like I said, my cousin and I, we weren't that close.

I mean, we're the same age, but we weren't close growing up. Should he unfriend Pedro? Yes. Oh, man. Bro's before, like Amy said. Yes, Pedro's cool. It didn't do anything in the lunchbox. Why not?

Keep him. No. He needs to unfriend him. Okay, so Amy says unfriend. Morgan says unfriend. Yes. Why? Because it's just like if somebody in your family asks for your support, that's your way of digitally supporting them.

They're not close, though. But close enough to wear a lunchbox. If they're not close, then lunchbox definitely isn't close to Pedro. So, I'm just unfriend. Are you closer to Pedro or your cousin? I'm probably Pedro. There you go. I vote justice for Pedro.

Like Pedro text me during a sporting event. You know what I mean? Like Super Bowl. Hey, man. I don't ever text my cousin about that stuff. Yeah. Justice for Pedro. What? You would.

I don't know what Pedro did. And if I'm not close to that cousin. Exactly. It just depends how close you order to the cousin. Okay. Ramundo, you get to make the final decision. Friend Pedro, but also since your friends text Pedro and just say, hey, dude, it's politics, family stuff. You know, I had to do it.

Pedro probably won't even notice. Exactly. You don't even notice. Okay, you've heard the, you know, my weight is no more than theirs. This is a democracy. Unfriend Pedro. Yeah, bye, bye, Pedro. And that is pity bit.

That is peat. That is good. That is good. That's good. You guys a good bit bit, though, right? It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. A fun special guest on the show this week. Morgan Evans stopped by.

He performed a brand new song for us and he talked all about it. Plus why he sings in an American accent, even though he talks Australian. I mean, he's from Australia. So we got the breakdown on that. Plus, he performed that new song and some of his big hits. So check that out right now. Number six. On the Bobby Bones show now.

Morgan Evans. Morgan, how are you, bud? I'm great. How are you? I'm pretty good. Morgan has this Australian beach vibe He's in flip-flops

Yeah Like old-school ones You don't see old-school Flip-flops much anymore Is that right? What makes these old-school? That they're just the toe In the typical

It's like Walmart Those are Walmart flip-flops No, no I think that they're not They're not Are these are the Haviana brand Yes

The Haviana That's nice Too rich for our blood But I think that cost you About nine bucks Or something like that So yeah

No they are cool but like slides are kind of in right now. So I guess that's what bother means. With the slides, I've seen them. You wear socks with the slides, right? I've seen people at the airport doing that. Sox and fliplops is like an ultimate fashion disaster where I'm from. The airport, I will wear socks with slides only so I can slide my slides off

because I will not go barefoot on an airplane. But I will go sock foot if I'm just sitting. Okay. Does that make sense? Perfect sense to me. Yeah, yeah. Barefoot on an airplane. That sounds.

Not barefoot, sock foot. Sock foot's fine, yeah. Everything else go with you? Life's good? Yeah, I mean, we're playing music again. It's pretty hard to complain. Next week you go out with Brett Eldridge on the Good Day tour? Yeah, I'm really looking forward to that. Yeah. How long a set do you get when you play with Brett?

We get 45 minutes. Oh, that's like a whole set. It is. It's a full show. This is actually the first tour I've done in America opening where there's actually someone on before me. So that's a novelty for me. Hey, it's a big step. Yeah, someone before him. I love that. Here we go. At what point do you play Kiss somebody? It's funny, man. We've been playing around with that. So I think the pandemic has been really good for one of my songs in particular. Maybe something to do with the way people have been spending their lockdown time.

And we used to play Kiss Somebody last because it was the biggest song on the radio generally when you travel around, people know it. But after the last 18 months, Day Drunk is now by far the biggest song in our set. So we finish with that and we play Kiss Somebody a little earlier. Give me a little verse and chorus of Kiss Somebody. All righty. Your former big old smash hit. Sometimes you got to drink about somebody.

That ain't gone. bring them back sometimes you could cry and miss somebody you've all felt like that if it's something that you got to get over but you just can't get over sometimes you got to kiss somebody in the back of a cabber on a subway train times you got to kiss somebody on a midnight street in the summer rain if you're wishing you were with somebody you don't want to go home when it's closing time if you want to kiss somebody. Baby I got somebody in mind. You can kiss like your heart ain't never been broke.

Kind of lips at your lips. Get your eyes to close. I know what you're going through. Because I want to kiss somebody too. Nice. I'm going to kiss somebody like you. Like you. I got to high harmony.

I thought he was done and I just jumped in. Yeah. Yeah. He's still going, but he never stops. Bobby's like, so what do you do? I'm going to get some... That's the you live version right there. Morgan Evans is here right now.

I saw you post the other day and you were like, you can text me at this number. Yeah, it's on your Instagram bio. So I texted you. I was like, hey man, you want to go to lunch? And you never text me back. You did not text me? Yeah, I texted that number and said,

do you want to go to lunch? Just to see. Were you under a different name or something? No, no, I just said it's Bobby. But that's a... But if you text that number on your Instagram, Yeah. Does that go right to your phone? Yeah, well, it's an app on the phone, yeah. So it's not your real number, so I don't have your real number.

Well, you have my real number, too, actually. So you could have a- But I did try the app. I did text the number. We're like, hey, man, want to go to lunch? And I never heard from you on the app. Yeah, that's right. Well, maybe I need to dig back in there. So do, I do jump in there. If someone calls? Wait, can they call you? It's not a call thing. No, it's a text thing. But it's really cool. I find it, like, it's very rewarding to be able to connect one-on-one with people. This is what I would like to do, because this show is all about authenticity. Yeah.

And if you go to Morgan's Instagram, you can see his text number that goes to an app. But I'm going to give you his real cell phone number, everybody. Oh, yeah, thank you. We can really connect one of them on. Hey, I want you to do something else for me for a second, because I do want to talk about the new song and get into the new song. Do you need your pedal to play a little bit of day drunk, or can you play it right there? I can play it right here. Okay. I actually, I've retired the pedal.

You have? Yeah. Okay. Because the only time I've ever seen you play day drunk was with the pedal. Yeah. And I didn't tell you I was going to ask you to play day drunk. Right, right, right. Can you play as a verse and chorus a day drunk?

Uh, yeah, of course. Um, here we go. And here we go. We bought that. Champagne for New Year's. We got one bottle left. Let's pop it open, baby, what you say. Stay in that t-shirt, you don't need to get dressed.

Because we got plans to make no plans today. Oh, I'm thinking happy hour on the hour. In the kitchen, in the shower. Dancing tipsy singing with me, baby. Let's get a little day drunk, party with that shade zone. Play a bunch of old songs. Sing along, get the words wrong. Who cares when you day drunk.

Get down while the sun's up. Make a little good luck like it's day night in the daylight. And it feels right when you day drum, day drum. when you day drum day drunk Are you done? Okay, okay, there is. Morgan Evans. Thank you, thank you.

Follow him at Morgan Evans' music. We'd like to hear you tune live. I know you're about to tune. I want our audience to hear what you're doing and preparing for a song here. Yeah, okay. Go ahead. Live tuning, yeah.

So right now he's put the phone on his knee and on the phone, it will tell you different letters. If your string hits exactly right, it'll show up as that letter. Exactly is kind of a rough term when you use the phone tuner. It's close enough kind of thing. Made me seem smart. Morgan, don't contradict me.

And Morgan's going to play his new song, Love is Real. And right now he's perfecting the strings. It sounds way better when it's closely to it. Oh, do you hear that? Wow. Wow. That is a tuning, a live tuning. For you guys, I will tune.

Wow. That is amazing. Morgan Evans is here. You may know him by a couple of songs from his past, for example, kiss somebody. Sometimes you got to kiss somebody. Maybe day drunk. Possibly diamonds. So now you have this new song, Love is Real.

And I'm going to have you play the full song. I'm talking. I want you to go from the first word to the end. I want all the emotion from this song. All right. Because you wrote this. What happens? You go into a room.

Do you have the idea on your phone? Does somebody else come to you with it? Tell me about this song. Yeah, I had this title for a long time, and I was trying to find the right way to write it, because, you know, sometimes songs can get a little bit clever, and the cleverest, like, it takes away from the feeling of the song. And I really just wanted this to be just a straight sharing of a feeling

when everything's right in the world. You know, I feel like over the last year and a half, I've wanted the good vibes, and I just want to share that. And for me, that's, you know, the lyrics, the verse of this song, which is a good road trip with your girl, and feel in love. You guys have a Jeep, huh? Yeah. Yeah, that's cool.

I have no follow-up. I just took the roof and doors off and all that the other day for the first time. It's a good feeling. Yeah, that's cool. That's neat. I love is real. This is it. This is Morgan Evans' new single.

He's going to play it for you. Let's go. Alrighty. Beat on a bench seat high way in the sky. your blue jeans you DJ I drive flipping through the radio in my hat you always still yeah

quick stop at a Texaco last exit for miles tank top and a top of cheek oh high on your smile feeling like a Polaroid the way time standing still yeah love is real

and I could try to God. You end in the rustrums at these wheels. Love is real. Love is real. All mine. Love is real. Wow.

There he is, Morgan Evans. Thank you. We were giving it a second. We never know it to you. You might jump back into it. That's good, though. I like that. Thank you, right.

Man, that's a really good song. I'd heard it already, but the first time I heard it. I was like, that's a really good song. Thanks, man. You can probably tell us the first time I've sung that this morning. But I appreciate it. So, bear with me. Would you mind just playing the first line of that song again, just as you did?

Yeah, the guitar line or the vocal line? The vocal line. Yeah. I don't know what guitar line is, but if vocal, yeah, just sing the first line for me, just like he did. Bare feet on a bench seat, highway in the sky. Hold. Say that with no music, like you're just saying it to me. Some sort of test other stuff.

No, no, no, just say it like we're talking. Sing it? No, just say it. Oh, bare feet on the bench seat, highway and the sky. Now, there's an accent when he says it. There's no accent when he sings it. It's unbelievable. Is that crazy?

He's like, bear feed on an abendcheed. And it's like, say, Margoorpeed, however your accent. That's crazy you think your accent, because that's not on purpose, right? No, that's weird, isn't it? I grew up singing American music or I thought it was that. But, you know, even Keith Urban sounds American when he sings, you know, and even the Beatles sound American when they sing. I actually Googled this one time.

So, like, you go on YouTube or whatever, and there's a guy on there, and he explains. that maybe the American accent, the way that the American accent approaches vows, is more pleasant to the human ear or something like that, if you want to get technical. But I grew up trying to sound like Garth Brooks, so here I am. Sometimes, though, even Spice Girl songs, they sound like they're speaking American English. Or Brad, from Three Doors Down, has a really thick southern accent, but when he sings, you don't hear that extreme. So basically, music brings us all together.

That's what I'm saying. You know what? It's a universal way. It really does, yeah. That song's really good. When you play it live, it's really good. Kit, have you ever tried to sing with your accent? Try that.

Try that line. It's not good. It's not good. You know, there's some legendary Australian country artists and rock and roll artists that sing in Australian accents, and they do it, and it works. For some reason, for me, it doesn't feel right. Here's what I want to ask you. You have the song Love is Real.

Which of these do you believe is real? Do you believe that a lot of these little spacecrafts that are showing up more now than never? Do you believe they're alien? Do you think aliens are real? Yeah. You think aliens are real? In these space, because here's my theory.

Before I make you commit to anything, right. These guys all say, lunchbox says no chance. No chance. You guys are cuckoo. Wait, wait, wait. Is the question aliens are real or they're here on Earth? Because here's the explanation. I say that, because we're seeing more and more of these unidentified aerial phenomenon, they're calling it now.

And I say, hey, if they're so advanced and they don't want us to see them, we wouldn't see them. Our eyes have these cones in them, but we can't see something. Right. Animals have things in their ears. They can hear things we can't. Yeah. There's nothing that says we would have to, we would be able to see some life form that is far more sophisticated than we are. Right.

Now, do I believe there could be something? Yeah, probably. Do I think these little spaceships that we're seeing all the time have aliens them? I think no there. Right. Because if they didn't want us to see, we wouldn't. Yeah. So with all that, our aliens are real?

You're on the clock. Well, I'm inclined to agree with your, with your, you're thinking that. It's silly to, like, just say there's definitely no aliens, right? I say it's silly, too, because it's silly to say there's definitely nothing of something you can't prove either way. Exactly, yeah. Right, but in our opinion, the current aerial phenomenons are not carrying little aliens. Do I think they have aliens in them? Probably not.

Yeah. What about love at first sight? Do you think that's real? At first sight? Yeah, I guess. Yeah, you have to say that. There's an inclination. You can definitely feel an inclination.

Let me tell you why I don't believe you. I don't believe that. Okay. I believe that there is first sight of why. that person is really hot and we hit it off immediately, but sometimes that happens and it doesn't work out. If that happens and it works out, I think you retro assign.

It's definitely a retro assignment. Love at first sight. People have more than a look, though. There's an energy people have, too. When you look at someone, you can kind of... Look at me. You can tell that. Oh, you got that energy.

Yeah. You can see in people's eyes, the way they stand, the way they, like, open their body towards whoever they're talking to. There have been a lot of body openers, though, that's a good open body, but then they ended up hating. You know? Yeah, okay. Hate it for a sight.

Yeah. How about Bigfoot? I don't know much about Bigfoot. Do you guys not have a version of Bigfoot in Australia? Probably drop bears, I think. They talk about it in Australia, right? What's that? Bears are full out of trees.

It might have been an alcohol marketing campaign at some point. So that's not a real thing, drop bearers? No, they don't drop out of trees. There's actually no bears in Australia. Final question. I got them here. This is the one I've been to ask them. I thought koala bears were from Australia.

Yeah. Well, koala bears, yeah. Not like the big. This is the one, though. This is the one I'm going to put you on the spot. And your team's going to get uncomfortable and everyone's going to go, why is he asking? And it's not political and it's not about masks. But it's about, do you think that I can beat up a kangaroo?

Because I've said for a long time that one-on-one, me and a kangaroo, I can beat it up because I'm smarter than the kangaroo. Right. Yeah, I mean. You have a thousand, somebody says, here's a thousand bucks. Bet it on the kangaroo in this room or me? If we just put a big red one, like a 10-foot-tall one? and you in this room?

Well, yeah, we're not doing a little one. Wait, they're 10 foot tall. They can't be on their legs. Good for me. I'm about to really show out then if it's 10 foot tall. They range anywhere from like 5 to 10 feet. And they're ripped. Okay, then 7.5 feet.

Let's go to the middle. Okay, yeah, go middle. There's a 7.5 foot kangaroo. Still bigger than you. And we're in a ring. And they say Morgan Evans, here's a thousand bucks. Do I get to ask one more questions? Yeah, you think you can beat the kangaroo?

Yeah. I'll bet on you then. Of course. Yeah. Well, you're not going to ask the kangaroo? Kangaroo can't talk, dummy? No. Yeah, I'm a dummy, yeah.

So the kangaroos that you see in those fighting videos, I didn't see them growing up, because I grew up kind of near the coast, which is like most of Australia, and we have the little gray, cute ones that you try not to hit. I definitely whoop those butts. They're more like deer, right?

We love them. I'd kick a little gray kangaroo's butt. I'd do that, like the prelim, and then I'd go out and whip the big one. Yeah. Okay. You're just to feed up animals. I'm like the biggest animal guy in the world,

but now all of a sudden I want to fight them all. There's just one in particular one. I'm like the Logan Paul of Beat Nail Animals. I'm on YouTube. Okay, listen. Morgan Evans is here. His new song is Love is Real. I hope you stream it.

I hope you stream it so many times that he just can't count the money showing up in his mailbox. That's the goal, right? Thank you, right. Yeah, you're welcome. He'll be out with Brett Eldridge on the Good Day tour. He's on Instagram at Morgan Evans Music. Is there anything I'm not saying that you'd like for me to say? You've nailed it all the way down to the kangaroos and Bigfoot, yeah.

All right. Right, that is all. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. We had a new artist who pitched his song to the show in a pretty clever way. Now, Scuba, you do so much behind the scenes stuff, okay? And the whole point of bringing you on is we're addition some dirty behind the scene stuff, right? Yeah, let's do it. I got it all.

I want to know. What are some of like the crazy things we've been sent to the studio? Well, I mean, this is definitely one of them, like crazy, cool. Like we've never had someone pitch I mean people pitch all the time Bobby mentioned songs to be on the radio to come in the studio to perform whatever may be

but no one's ever pitched to be on the Friday morning dance party which doesn't seem like a crazy idea but it is because no one's ever done it before Yes and the mail came as plaque And first I saw the cookies I started eating the cookies Food is always an easy one for us right

Totally you see food and everybody's like yes food Especially if it's food that has That is coming from a reputable place Yes no offense to your homemade food, but I don't know where it's come from. It's not FDA approved. It's not, I don't know where. I just don't want to eat your personal food.

Yeah, if it was being cooked in your home kitchen, it's probably not the best idea for us to eat. Not saying we would get sick, but we would get sick. Yeah. Maybe. You never know. Yeah. Okay. So food is a big one in this moment, you know, this artist, what he sent.

What are some other things? I'm trying to think of crazy things that have been sent to our studio. Well, we had that one while back and we kind of dropped it, the stocker box that we got that one time. That was a bad one. Yeah, that was a bad one. This is a thing. Do you think our listeners should send us things?

I encourage it, yes, to a certain degree. I think sending, because people get fan mail, like television shows and other radio shows, usually letters and things like that. But it's cool when somebody is such a big fan of the show that they're willing to put something out there, that they've either created, made, a company they're a part of, or they just want to give you a gift because they heard you talking about a certain product. there's something that you want to try out. And they send it anyways because they work there or they're also a fan and passionate as well.

And they went and spent their own cash to buy us something and send it to us with a cool little no that explains why they did it. So I highly encourage it, but just never homemade food. Don't ever send that. This is true. Yeah. So true. I know like when I started doing the food worlds, there were so many different companies that started sending me like the new items to try. And I was like, this is so cool.

I get it before. hits the shelves and then I like get to try it but then it's that awkward thing I'm like it didn't taste very good yes because I don't want to share this yeah like sounded cool isn't that great yeah good concept but doesn't yeah yeah that's like the scary part that you you don't want to share it but yeah that's like a that's an interesting thing so like food if you're if you're trying to send stuff to the show we always love packaged food yes not homemade um if people come and bring food from their company like hey I work at first watch and we're bringing by some breakfast and that was fantastic. Yes, that was awesome. Yeah, it came from a place. We know that they

make it in a kitchen that's not saying, you know, that's saying your place isn't sanitary, but they just have regulations they're following. And, you know, it's different from getting my aunt's food versus your food. Yes, this is true. Yeah. Or something that's very, like, you know, like it made from the heart. You guys said it's cool stuff like that. And that's really awesome. We get paintings or drawings. We get tons of those, which are really cool. Brent and Bakersfield every year gets with an artist. I guess this is my first time experience. experiencing it and they do like a hand drawn sketch of the show. Yes.

And it sits in Bobby's office and it's really cool. And I remember getting that my first time here. It was like in 2019 at the end of the year. And that photo came in and they included me on it because I was still kind of new. And it would hurt my feelings that they didn't or did. And there it was drawn. I've never seen myself drawn before. Yeah.

It's pretty cool. So like those unique kind of gifts I think are really special. And it just really goes to show you that what we're doing, people are connecting and they love it. And they're sending us gifts, which is really cool. Yes. can you believe too that like 2019 was when you joined the show the end of 2019 and we were about to be at the end of 2021.

Yeah. Do you feel like that just like flew by? Like even the fact we were stuck inside, it just flew by. It did, but in the moment it didn't fly by. Especially because of a pandemic. I felt like that year was almost 10 years. Like it was a really long time because we had to adapt our show in a way that it's never had to do before.

I mean, radio in general and entertainment in general is. as far as how we did our show and put it together with people in different locations and the technology and the trials and tribulations of the technology and everyone in different locations. I mean, it was just such a pain in the butt. But it was cool because it kind of put me in an uncomfortable place already being somewhere new, but even extra uncomfortable because it was a new territory that no one's really explored. So it was it put me on my A game and I and I liked it. But it did feel like a really long time. Now it feels like it was pretty quick. As you look back out of it.

Like, oh my gosh, it was pretty fast. In the moment, it was, time was going by really slow. Well, yeah. And, like, when you, you know, everybody was quarantined. Everybody was stuck at their houses. It felt like, it felt, everything felt very slow. But then, like, I was looking at dates and I'm like, how is it? I'm already about, in one month I am turning 28 years old.

I felt like I just turned 27. Yeah. Like, I don't feel like I had that year. Yeah. If that whole year is almost a blackout. Yes. Yes. You just kind of put an asterisk next to it and nothing counted or mattered that year.

No. And I don't, I don't understand. Like, it blows my mind. that that's how I feel. Also, too, I mean, that that Brad Paisley song that's like, don't blink, I'm feeling that now. Yes. Yeah. And they tell you when you're younger, they're like, don't blink, it goes by really fast. You're like, no, it doesn't. Like, this feels like it goes by slow. When you're a kid, it does. Yeah. But the older I get, each year that goes past, I feel that way. I'm like,

this is moving far too quickly, and now I get it. Everybody yelled at me when I was younger and I didn't listen. Yeah. And now I need to listen. And then when you have kids, you then see it through them, you're like, holy crap, one day they're an infant, then they're a toddler, then they're three years old, and then they're talking back to you, and then they're driving a car. It's like, oh, my God. I know. Time is on this, like, quick roller coaster, really is what it is. I know.

It's so crazy. What, okay, so, you know, we're talking about life and random things, but what are some segments that you wish we did more of on the show or that we could do in the future? More of like what we currently do? Yeah. So I kind of want to do, and I've been wanting to do it since I started, and Bobby and I've been talking about trying this with a band coming up. We'll see if it works. But I like having guests in the show. It's great. It's fun for the show. It's fun for us as fans of these artists to see

them come in and perform and do that kind of stuff. But from a, I'm looking at a business mind side. So as an affiliate, so an affiliate basically is somebody that carries our show in their local market. So let's say you live somewhere like Poughkeepsie, New York. Chances are our competitor is a very small town morning show and doesn't have access to the guests that we have. especially in person. They may connect with an artist, but it'd be over the phone or Zoom or whatever. But we have the ability to have them in studio

and do more with them. Play games, play music, all kinds of fun stuff. And one thing I've always didn't like, I've always disliked. I'm trying not to say the word hate very much. My grandma always says, don't say hate, say you don't like.

Hate's a very strong, mean word. Hey, I'm with your grandma on that. I agree. So I'm really trying to implement that my life. Not saying the word hate very much. But interviews always kind of perturbed me because it was like a quick wham-bam-than-a-man. They come in, ask a bunch of questions, and then they're out.

They're not really immersed into the show. And I feel like the best kind of interview is where you kind of weave them into the fabric of our show, whether it be they're here for a full hour or they're here for half the show or even the full show, almost like a guest co-host. And they're here and they're just part of the show, the band or the artist. And in between, we work it in where they do some performances, play some games. but it's basically a whole day with, like, let's say, Kelsey Ballerini, and she's here from top to bottom, and she hangs out.

She's part of the topics. She talks to callers. We do interview stuff in between and plug whatever she's plugging. We play some performances from her live in the studio, almost like a full immersive day of that artist, where I feel like they'll get the most out of it too because they're being plugged the entire day. So whatever they're trying to promote, it's a full day's promotion.

So I've always wanted to do something like that. Well, and I think we've touched on it a little bit, Like when we had our, you know, our anniversaries for the show of being in Nashville, I think we had Jake Owen play for a full hour. We had Thomas Red on for a full hour or two, something like that. And then like when Lunchbox was gone, we had a guest co-hosts. So I think we've touched on it, but not quite as big as what you're talking about. I'm talking about, like, this is a special broadcasted show with just that person. Lunchbox was kind of like the first tiptoe into it.

So I was okay. me and Bobby were like, we got to put someone in that seat. How do we do it? Who do we do it with? How long are they here for? Like Todd Crisley was funny. Like that was one. That was random.

And funny back story on that. So when I was booking that one, at first it was like, I don't know, he could be kind of controversial. Should he come on? Should he not come on? And so I was talking to his manager who then forwarded me just to him. I have a cell phone number now. So I was talking to Todd.

That's cool. Yeah. And it was kind of like, we didn't know if he was going to come in the next day. And it was kind of left that out like, okay, I'll see what I can do. And then the next morning I get a phone call from a number that I don't recognize. I didn't save it my phone. And it calls again. And it calls again.

And it calls again. And finally I answer. I go, what? He goes, it's Todd Chrissy. I'm out of the front door. And I was like, you're here? He's like, yeah, I've been out here for 30 minutes. You're going to answer the door or not?

That sassy southern accent. Yeah. Yes. And he just randomly shut up and he hung out for the whole, I would say at least half the show. Yeah, he was here for a long time. For a really long time. It was pretty cool. But so that was kind of like the tiptoe into trying.

out that long that plan of later down the road of doing like a full guest for a full show and i feel like it kind of worked it was kind of fun it was cool they were part of the conversation yeah i love it i love that idea i think too like something i've always loved when we do them is all of our crazy challenges yes we used to do like the crazy will at uber which we don't anymore because nobody's uber scores can handle it yeah but like those things that we did like different different challenges or different random things. Like lunchbox fake proposed to me in public on Valentine's Day. Like random things like that was always like super funny to me.

And we'll do them sometimes now like the world's sourest candy, which we did this week. And you know, a little hint that comes later. But it's fun to have people like that that you see that you have on a pedestal and only see them as a performer. But it's fun to like take back those layers and just let them be human for a moment. I feel like they would enjoy because they get to just kind of be part of a show. And you get to hear them just be themselves and give their opinions. And it would be kind of fun to see it. I love that.

And then going in a break, they play us in a break kind of thing, almost like an S&L type thing. Like, all right, Thomas, Rhett, play us into the stop set. Yes. And I mean, honestly, sew up your alley to even suggest that because it just sounds very Hollywood-esque. Yes, yeah. But I love it. Like, such a good idea. but totally understand like what you're going for.

And the logistics, it's a pain of the bump because then you've got to get everyone to agree on it and the management and the label and the time constraint. So that's been the biggest hurdle is trying to find somebody who can dedicate three plus hours to do this with us. Yeah, because that's not their full-time job. Exactly. Yes. Oh, man. Well, hey, listeners, you never know that could happen in our future. Yes. And I have a television show idea that I want to work with some people here on the show that I'm not going to say anything yet,

but it's going to be something that's kind of pivoted on a bit we've done or I wanted to do, going on your theme of something I want to do that you and I have talked about on this podcast once before a year ago that I want to turn into a television show and I think it's going to be freaking awesome. What? Yeah. Okay. So you're not going to tell me here because like you can't reveal it, but I want to know after this.

Yeah. I'm so curious. Yeah, I love that. See, Skivis Steve over here coming up with ideas. And this is the behind the scenes that you really need to hear because this is how his mind worse. Like he's sitting there coming up with ideas and deciding. I mean, hey, what can I pitch to Bobby to go on the show?

Yeah. Right? Like, this is really behind the scenes. This is what Scoba thinks and does during the show. Yes, like all the big ideas. Like, how can we make, not only how can we make it work for the show, but how can we make money for the show? How can we get a sales tie in if we need to to pay for our things?

Like Hyundai, for example, for Eddie's walk. They help pay for all the stuff to make it happen. So, yeah, big ideas. Big ideas. Coming from a guy sitting in a cookie monster shirt right now. Just paint y'all a picture of what's happening right now during this podcast. They got caught out. I love the shirt, but it's just funny.

It was like, big ideas with my Cookie Monster shirt. And who's the other, who's the little red guy? What's Elmo? That's Elmo. Yeah, Elmo. I was like, why is that not coming to me? Oh, man. Okay, well, y'all can hear this moment where a new artist pitched a song to this show to be played in the Friday morning dance party.

and we listen to it, you know, see the response. See what happened. Is he going to come on the show? What happened? Number five. So I get a lot of stuff sent to me all the time. Like, please play me on the air. Please look at my artist.

Do I just sign? Even sometimes a valet will give me something. Or a waiter at a restaurant. And heck, I brought some of them in the studio before. But I've never had someone pitched to me just to be on the Friday morning dance party. Oh, that's fun. Which happened here.

This guy sent up a bunch of cookies. What? He sent up a whole frame. picture that says for your consideration for the Friday morning dance party, Aaron Goodvin. His song is called Lonely Drum. That's cool. And very original, right? Yes. Clever. Here are the points on. This is double platinum Canadian country radio smash, 27 plus million streams, global line dance sensation. Okay. From Warner Music Canada and Reviver. Wow. So I love the fact that he went right for the dance party. And it's like, I'm not even going to

play. Like, I just went in the party that puts everything. but in a good mood. And he has a plaque. So he sent this up. I haven't heard the song yet. I thought we would do it together. Let's go. Ray, do you have it with you?

Let's hear Aaron Goodvin. But if it doesn't fit the dance party, I mean, it fits a sad song and it's talking about, you know, giving me tears. But it says it's a line dancing sensation. Maybe it's a really slow line dance. Okay.

You know, let's hear lonely, because it sounds sad, lonely drum. Yeah, to be honest, yeah. What if it's only one drum? Boom. Okay, here we go. Okay. I'm beating on my lonely drum, girl, don't you want to come over.

I'm halfway through a chardonnay, and I don't plan on staying sober. Bring your hair guitar. Don't let this not get any older. Girl, don't you want to come over. We got us a hit, boys. Yeah. You know my lonely drum. I get drunk and sing karaoke.

I just do the hokey-fokey. I get drunk and sing here. That's so important. Yeah. I love it. Here's what I'm going to say. It will for sure be in the Friday morning dance party this week. That's my new favorite song, though. Dude, that's good.

Boom, boom, boom. In the room, brim, brim, boom. Boom, boom. Boom, boom. Dang. Dang, Aaron Goodman. Lonely drum I'll tell you what

Get him in Next week We can get him in next week To come play this song too He's in the dance party This week I'll mix him in And then maybe we get him

in the studio next week Okay Come on Yeah And he brought cookies Boom Well he sent him up here Oh okay

Yeah Boom boom boom I'm gonna go find them In my room Yum yum yum Okay Aaron Goodvin You got yourself

A date On the dance party And on the show It's the best Bits of the Week With Morgan number two It's always a really funny moment when Lunchbox decides to take over our voicemail line because he acts like the voicemail. But it is actually him talking and he confuses a crap out of our listeners.

And I truly feel bad for him, but we get a really solid laugh out of it. So if you need a good laugh today, sit here, listen to this. I promise you at least laugh once. Number four. Let's go! If you call our show when we're not on the air, the voicemail picks up. it's 87777 Bobby and it's like me going

hey leave a message we're not here but we'll play it on the air maybe so sometimes lunchbox are coming here and just answer the phone and act like the voicemail. Yeah I just act like a voice recording like hello you've reached the Bobby Bone Show voicemail and I tell them you can leave a message and I make them do a bunch of dumb stuff

and they do it. It's really great. Here we go. Here's clip number one. Thank you for calling the Bobby Bone Show. This is our voicemail. Unfortunately we are getting a high number of calls right now. and couldn't get to your call. Please leave a voicemail out to the beep, and maybe we'll play it back on the air.

Beep! Morning Studio, this is Rachel from Nashville, and I just had a thought a potential flaw in the lunchbox pulling the rock bit in downtown Nashville. There is no flaw. Lunchbox is amazing. Lunchbox is amazing.

There is no flaw. Hello? If you are satisfied with your message, press one. I'm so confused. Is there anything else you'd like to say to the show? Oh man, I had my voice now all planned out, but now it's confused. If you are satisfied with your message, press one. If you'd like Eddie to send you a picture of his bald head, press two.

What's wrong with you? That's so stupid, it's so funny. She was really going in on something too. I wonder what the flaw was in our bit now. Yeah, and she had it all planned out. Why is it talking? Okay, here's, that's funny. another clip. Thank you for calling the Bobby Bone Show. You have reached our voicemail. If you'd like to leave a

message for Bobby, say, nerd alert. If you'd like to leave a message for you. You selected Bobby. At the beep, leave a message for Bobby. Beep. Bobby, I would like to wish my husband being my house a happy birthday. Would you like to sing him happy birthday on this message before we hang up? Yes. You sing happy birthday after the beep. Beep. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear B.M.O., I love you. I do. Thank you, and have a great day. I can't believe that.

How are they believing all this? That's funny. What time of the day do you do that? After the show? Yeah. Whatever. I would also believe it, too, if I called. But the technology's not there. Well, we're not there yet. But when he does beep in his own voice,

After the beep Beep It's the best bits of the week With Morgan number two We had Josh Grayson on the show This week Such an awesome moment Because he played so many of his big hits

And he has so many good ones We also learned that Bobby had him Play as a surprise to Caitlin During his wedding rehearsal And so that was a really fun moment For us to hear all about that Him perform But really, I just combined Scoop

Steve. I was going to say Skateen skeve. Skeve. Your new nickname is Skeve. We just make it easy. Skeve. Steve.

Scuba. It's because part of me wants to say Steve. It's the whole thing. You just call me S-S-E-S-Eve. Any noise that has an S on it, I'll respond to. Yes. Scuba. That's what we're going to go with right now.

Is there any news that's happened in your personal life that you just want to share? Like, let's share some fun life updates. Things have been happening. My daughter is now walking or trying to walk, which I've noticed because anyone that has multiple children, you'll know that the first kid kind of does whatever. It happens when it happens. But when you have a second kid, they're trying to compete with the first child, not even just like they're doing it. It's just happening. They're just because they see the other kid doing more because they're older and they can walk and talk. So my daughter

is at the point now where it's scary, but she's trying to walk. And she's only, I think, eight months old, which is really young to start walking. Okay, now how far apart are your two kids? My son, he turns four years old in March. So he's about three and a half years old. And then my daughter is eight or nine months old. So there's a good two plus years difference. And she's competing with him. Yes.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's a rough competition there because he's got a few years on her. Totally. But like he didn't start walking until about a year and a half. So for her to be coming on this early, I mean, doesn't seem like a big deal, but it's pretty incredible to see my daughter pull herself up and start to take a step. I'm like, oh my God.

And she's like maybe a few inches off the ground. It's weird. She's ready to go. She's like, I just need to start moving with my brother. That's what it sounds like. And she's the youngest, obviously. So I do feel like to being the youngest, I am the youngest of three sisters. Well, the youngest of four.

You get what I mean. I know what you mean, yeah. I always did things faster because I saw them doing everything and I just wanted to hang out with my sisters. And I wanted to do everything they did, even if I was, you know, 10 years younger. to be like them. You want to be what they do and everything. Yeah. Yeah, I get it. Do you feel like your son is like very involved with your daughter? He's kind of just like ignoring her at this point. Like where are they at and their sibling relationship? Oh, he's been in love with her from the moment he met her. Yeah, he's at the point now where he's trying to pick her up and carry her,

which is scary. Not strong enough yet for that, buddy. No, he does lift her off the ground and she moves, but he gets the point. You're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, let me, let me step in here, but I appreciate that. I see what you're trying to do and I appreciate that, but no, don't. I love that. Yeah, it's pretty cool. Okay, cool little sibling relationship going on. Yeah. Okay. And the daughter is starting to walk. What else we got going on in your life? I slightly wrecked my truck and I was depressed for a solid month afterwards. The big blue truck. Yeah. Steve, again, painting another picture, drives a jacked up blue truck that barely fits in our studio, parking garage. Yeah. Barely. Barely. In these parking grouches I drive into,

I see the clearance and I'm looking at it, I feel like it's hitting the roof of my car. I in all these garages. Yes. Well, it's huge. Yeah. Okay. So did you always want to lift a truck or did you always have one? No, I've always wanted a big truck. Okay. I've had like, I've had nice size like jeeps or trucks in the past, but never one like this. Okay. And when did you get this one that you got lifted and everything? Right when I moved here at the end of 2019. Okay, so you didn't have in California. No, I had a toilet. This is like you moved me to the south and you're like, here we go jacked up truck yeah i had a toy to a prius when i first moved here i still have it but it was like every day was war i literally i got in my car and every day i was dodging bullets but these bullets

were other cars that by the way i drove the speed limit if not faster so there's no excuse for you to come over and cut me off or flip me the bird or honk at me as if i'm going slow like most preist drivers i was not i'm going fast i'm going with the flow of traffic if not faster but they still would come at me like i'm a magnet and they just for some reason most big trucks wanted to run me off the road they were pissed off of me for nothing. So I was like, man, I can't have this Prius anymore. As much as this is saving a ton of money and gas, I got to get a truck, apparently. Okay, so it was a combination of you always wanting one and the needing one. You didn't want to be bullied by the drivers on the road anymore. Yeah, exactly.

Okay. And you almost wrecked it, kind of wrecked it. What happened? I did wreck it, but not, not as bad as you would think it'd be, but it was enough to where and now have a boo-boo in my car. And every time I see it, I just get so depressed and so sad. What happened? So I signed up for a gym membership. And I haven't been to a gym and, you know, since the pandemic started. So It's been well over a year. And I was my first day going to the gym. I'd had a really bad week, stressful here at work, a lot of crap going on, personal life, work life. And I was like, okay, I signed up for the gym last week.

Let me just go off some steam. I used to love doing that when I was living back in LA. Had a long day. I go to the gym. Like most of us. Great stress reliever. Totally. I'd rather do that than other things.

So I was like, let me go to the gym and get back in the great shape. And this is day one. I'm so excited to get there. Oh, no. This is not good. And then let me preface this. my son likes to, when we get to our house, before I pull into the driveway, he's like,

hey, I want to drive. So I, and if I don't, it's, he's throwing a fit. Oh. And I don't feel like dealing with it. So I just get in out of his little car seat. I put in my lap and basically let him hold the wheel as I drive forward in the driveway, which is like 10 feet. Okay.

So, so then it usually ends up with him sitting there for a moment while it's parked. He pushes a bunch of buttons, messes with stuff. And then the next day I try to reset everything back to where it was. Well, this week, I was mentally not. not here. He pushed a bunch of buttons. And one of those buttons he pushed is the sensor button where it tells you if you're getting too close to something. It's a big truck. The bells and whistles of the truck. Yes. Yeah. You get close to anything, whether you're turning lanes or if you're parking, it goes off. It has like a loud beeping noise. And as it gets closer to what it's about to

hit, it goes off toward the point. You're like, oh my God, I better stop. I'm going to hit something. Well, he had pushed that button and now I don't have that sensor on my car. And you didn't realize you didn't have that sensor. Yes. Yes. And you're relying on it at this point. Yes. As I'm backing into a parking spot at the Y downtown. And it's a very tight garage. Terrible garage. Terrible garage. It's the worst parking situation.

And I'm going to park my car and this guy who's whipping around who's leaving, who didn't even actually, he pulled into the garage to just whip around and leave. And so he's making me panic and freak out because I'm trying to park as fast as I can because he's honking his horn and making me speed up. And I'm just like, dude, just give me a moment here. Or you back up and go another way. But now I feel the pressure of him and the stress of the job in life. and I'm backing up and all of a sudden

there's no sensor happening and all of a sudden next thing I hear is all the worst sound. Yes and I looked at my right mirror and I'm like oh crap. The right side of my car is in like basically like married into and like just pressed up against

a solid concrete column and I'm like oh God okay so I can do one of two things I can continue going and see if that's any better or I can stop and then pull back out and maybe I got lucky. And I pull back out. That sound is giving me so much anxiety. And I didn't even have this happen.

And I'm like, no, it didn't go the way I wanted it to go. So let me just go ahead and fix my parking job, park. And I'll walk out and take a look at it. And as I get out to go look at it and I can see the driver's side rear, like where the truck bed is, there's this massive, like probably six inch dent into the side of my truck. Oh, no. And the blue paint is scraped and the black thing that I have over my wheel is scraped. And I just immediately feel this like massive amount of depression just wipe over my entire body.

And I'm like, I just signed up for this gym membership to feel good about myself. It did not make me feel good about myself? No. Is this a sign that I shouldn't be going to the gym during a pandemic? Should I just cancel this damn thing and go home? Did you end up going into the gym? I went into the gym and I went hard. Like the hardest have ever gone.

It probably made you feel better. I felt a little bit better until I got about. back out to the truck. And then I saw my dent again. And I'm like, oh, my God. And so then I like try to look at it and see if I can push the dent out some, which I did. I pushed some of the dent out, but it's still dent and it's still scratched and the paint still scratched. And so now it's just like, for me, it's visible, but it's not that visible. But it's visible to me because my truck was perfect. Before that, before the guy rushed me, before my son turned off on my sensors, it was a perfectly beautiful truck. It can still be beautiful again. You just have to pay to get it fixed, right?

Yes, and I don't feel like paying to get it fixed. Yeah, because it's going to probably be a couple hundred because it sounds like it hit a few different parts of your truck. Yeah, if not a couple thousand because of where it hit and they might have to replace some of that. I don't know. And so I bought paint because it's custom paints, cabaret blue. So I bought the paint from Toyota to see if I can do it myself. And I bought that like a month and a half ago and I still sitting in the can. I haven't touched it.

I haven't touched it. I haven't been back to the gym yet then. So I've been to the gym and I haven't fixed my freaking truck in almost two months. Dang. So I'm still broken. I love your person. personal life update, but I'm not as sad for you now. Yeah, it's still depressing when I see it.

Now I have family in town this week visiting. They're like, oh, it's a beautiful truck. And they go to see the other side of it. And they go, what happened here? Oh, and I'm like, oh, yeah. Just blaming on the other dude in the parking garage. Yes. And if I ever see that guy again, I'm going to freaking ring his damn neck.

I do. I mean, parking garages don't make sense to me. Yeah, in what way? Because I understand that they have to have all those nice little concrete blocks in it to keep it holding up, right? But you can't tell me there wasn't some smart structure engineer out there that could have put together a parking garage that didn't need that. Yes. Or put the poles in a place where it doesn't affect the parking.

Yes. Put it towards the back or somewhere else. The parking garages that have one like every few stalls, I'm like, I don't understand. We're really at this point in technology that y'all haven't figured this out yet, that this isn't happening. Yes. So you can't put it. So many people. I've ran into a center block in a garage before.

Thank goodness I drove the Jeep. So all it did was back into my tire. part. Okay. It's not bad. You know, those tires are like harmless. Yeah.

But those cinder blocks, I know just about, just about every person that I know has had that instant happen. Or they hit it and they scrape it or something. Yep. Something happens to their car. Pull on like personal car accident.

Totally. You misjudged when you're pulling in or you're pulling out or someone like with me was rushing me. And I feel the pressure to rush. Yeah, I know. It sucks. Yeah, I don't understand. That's one thing in life that every time I pull,

and you have to do it in Nashville so much. There's so many parking garages. Every time I pull into one, I'm like, how have we not figure this out yet? And then I see new ones getting built. I'm like, we still haven't figured it out. Nope. And you see the paint scrapes all over the side of it. Like, yeah, apparently this is a problem.

Well, in the concrete, like, hey, maybe you can put, like, mats around it, you know? Yeah. Or some sort of like rubber or something where it kind of just bounced off it and maybe just a little bit lessens the blow. Because let's be honest, that concrete ain't going nowhere. Yes. You run into it. It ain't moving.

No, not at all. So, yeah. I'm sorry, Steve. So one good life update and one crappy life update. Dang. It's all good. Dang. No one was harmed.

I wasn't harmed. I'm still alive. It's possessions. But it just sucks because I spent a decent amount of money on it. And it was something I was proud and happy to have. And now it's got this tommator mark on it, his birth mark. Well, you know, it doesn't help add to the stress of your life. That too.

So I hear you. And it sucks. Yeah. But you are okay. And everything's okay. That's the way I got to look at it is that. There's the positive ending to this is I'm a lot. Yes.

It could have been much worse. Trust me in Nashville, you could have been in a much worse car accident. Today on the way to work, I was going to get, I was getting a coffee in the morning and I'm coming in and you've probably had this happen to you many different times, especially here in Nashville, people just forgot how to drive. Yeah, literally. So I'm going down, it's a major street. There's two lanes on my side, two lanes on the other side, and then you got to turn lanes in the middle. Well, this guy is coming out of a gas station. I have a green light, so I'm going straight.

This guy cuts across from the gas station on the far left side, cuts across his traffic, and then, you got to, you know, is starting to come into my lane, but there's cars in that turn lane so he can't see him. And he comes all the way over and makes that turn. And I have a truck. So I'm like, well, I need to utilize the sidewalk. Oh my gosh. You did not drive on the sidewalk. Yeah, because he's coming over and he's not taking the first available lane, which in general,

his maneuver is illegal because he's crossing traffic and then crossing W.O. lines and coming over to my side of the road. And then instead of getting the first available lane and I could have just gone to the right side and missed him, he's coming straight into it and then making his. turn with this crappy old car and then coming into my lane and I'm like, well, I've got one option here. I can, or two options. I can hit them and then we have to deal with this or I can drive on the right side of the road, which happens to be the sidewalk and the median that's over there. So I immediately, I like honk my horn and then I drive up under the curb and onto the

sidewalk and I just keep driving and then get back on and keep going. So I almost got into a massive accident today. That's like some fast and furious thing where you see him driving on the sidewalk and they're hitting all the like mailboxes and stuff and they're just keep going. Totally. And then this is a spot where pedestrians are usually walking too. So I just happened to be lucky. There wasn't a pedestrian in the sidewalk. So I was able to get up and go over and get around.

I wrote my window down. I was like, what the hell, dude? And then he like slowed down and like kind of try to avoid me because he wasn't sure what I was going to do. I wasn't going to do anything. I was just pissed. Yeah. And if you live in Nashville, you definitely have road rage.

I don't think you can live in the city and not have road rage. Yeah. Any big city for that matter. I'm pretty sure most of them are like that. Yeah. Oh, man. Well, you want to go out on a high note. Let's go out on a high note.

I have a good personal life moment to share. You're getting married? You're pregnant. I mean, that's straight there, scuba. Don't you know you're not supposed to do that for women that are not married? No, and now this. You said a good one, so. It is, but now it doesn't seem exciting.

I'm just kidding. Go ahead. My dog, Remy, is now a therapy dog. Oh, okay. So you can take them. Sorry, he, right? She. Sheep, sorry.

Sorry about that. It's okay. She has a beardy and eyelashes. So it works. It's plausible. Yeah. So she got, she passed evaluation. We did like six weeks of training once a week.

And she had already been like trained prior to this. But now she's, she went through training to be the officially a therapy dog in the evaluation. She passed it. And so that means I can take her to her and I together. I'm not giving her way. I posted this and you would have thought I was giving away my dog. And I was like,

do you guys realize how much I love my dog? Do you think I would ever do that? Yeah. I thought I was going to ask you. Are you like going to lend out her service? services other people. No, so it's like her and I as a therapy animal like team. We can go to hospitals, retirement homes, schools, like whenever tragedy happens or whenever people need like some joy in their life. Like retirement homes will be a big one for us because Remy really does well with

elderly people. She loves on them and she's perfect size for them. And just kind of like make them happy. So like coming up in like a week and a half, we have an event to go to where we're going to go visit some nurses who are on the front lines. That's pretty cool. Yeah. Get like almost like a 30 minute break of like just a dog loving. Yeah. That's really cool. So yeah, super fun. I'm really excited about because I've been wanting to volunteer again and this is the perfect way to do it because Remy loves humans. Oh yeah. And you love Remy. So you get to hang out Remy. Yeah. And people get to hang out with her. That's like a win-win. Yeah. Like she, during our evaluation, they make you like go through all these tests situations, right?

Like if you're in a hospital or like all these people are coming up to you. And Remy, she had like six different people up to her in the evaluation. And this dog rolled over and was like, pet me, everybody. I love you all. Like not even afraid of anything. No anxiety. Of course they're worried about that. And if the dog snaps or whatever.

Yeah. And no, she's great. Like she doesn't do great with toddlers. And like as long as I know that, that's all that really matters. So that's why she does really go with the elderly because they don't move very fast. She does not like people that don't move very fast. She does well with that. But if they have a lot of energy, she's like, no.

It's like dogs that have too much energy and toddlers that move very fast. She's like, I'm like an old soul. Please leave me alone. I get that. That's pretty cool. Yeah. That's really special. So you can fly with her too, I imagine, right?

No. So that's just service dogs. Oh, okay. Gotcha. Yeah. So no, it was more of just the thing that we could go volunteer and do stuff. That's really cool. Together to bring some joy to people.

Because, again, she has beard and an eyelash. That's automatically going to make people smile. So that's really cool. Yeah. I like that. A little personal life update. That's going to be really fun. Heck yeah.

Yeah. Making people happy. So we had a good one for you, a bad one for you. Mm-hmm. A good one for you. Yeah, that's a nice little sandwich. I don't think I have any bad ones and I don't think we need to end on a bad note. No.

I think you did that for the both of us. I think we're there. I think we're good. Oh my gosh. Okay. Well, thanks for sharing. Thank you for being vulnerable in this moment, scuba. Yes.

I appreciate it. No problem. And sharing your trials and tribulations of your life. Oh, yeah. There's plenty of those. Oh, well, you. You guys can hear right now Josh Grayson. He performed some awesome songs of his,

and we talked about so many different things, including him performing at Bobby's wedding rehearsal. So check this out. Number three on the Bobby Bones show now. Josh Grayson. Josh, how are you, bud? I'm doing well, man. How are you? It's been, I guess, a month and a half since I've seen you.

Congratulations again, by the way. Thanks, man. So what happened was, just for those at home that are playing the home version of this game, is that my wife loves Josh Grayson. When she said she was going to create a new highwayman, she put Josh Grayson in it. And she would always sing as songs. And once I'd put on Instagram of Caitlin singing one of songs,

and he replied back, and I said, you know, it would be really cool to have Josh Grayson surprise her. So it's kind of hard to find. We emailed and we finally tracked you down. And Josh showed up at our rehearsal dinner and played. And everybody was like, holy girl. It was so cool. Yeah.

So, you know, there was so much going on and I thanked you, but I just, you know, publicly. Like, you didn't have to do that. We didn't pay you. You know, I just was so grateful that you would show up and do that for us because it was really special to her. So, again, on a public stage here, I just really appreciate that. No problem. I appreciate you all thinking of me, and I'm glad I could help out.

Comes out, he plays. We're all singing along. It's a good moment, huh? It was so fun. That was great. Yeah. So I was thinking about you because you were a Marine and then you got into music. And I think like Craig Morgan.

was in the service before he got into music. When you were in the Marines, were you playing music? Actually, I was here and there, and, you know, it's kind of like an unspoken thing, really. You don't know how the guys are going to take it when you're in the barracks or anything else like that. But I guess in boot camp it kind of started when things were kind of really hard and people were kind of missing home and stuff like that. They kind of caught me singing just to kind of call myself down. And the next thing you know, I would be asked to sing like at the end of the night where everyone was laying in their rack. trying to get to sleep and calm down.

And so that's what, you know, I would do pretty much the rest of boot camp. And it just kind of snowballed into there as far as intertwined with the military. Did they get you a guitar or did you just sing Acapelle? It was just Acapelle the whole time. I grew up outside of Detroit. So I learned how to sing off Motown music, R&B, oldies music. And then I got into country music at a very young age. And up there in Michigan, you know, in the mid-90s before it really kind of took off.

it was kind of a different thing. So I would sing like, like, you know, like the boys to men stuff and things like that in the barracks until it kind of transitioned. And more people started telling me they wanted some country stuff. Did you get like a singing nickname? Like, all right, singing boy. All right, Johnny Singer. Like, did you have a, like a singing nickname in the military? Not in the military, to be honest with you.

But one of the things that a former label used to do to kind of embarrass me because I know that I don't like attention. like immediate attention like that in public is every time he used to go somewhere radio stuff he used to say the singing marine and used to open the doors and like just say that really really loud so i guess that would probably be the only nickname attached to that as a singing marines but they wouldn't call you that while you're in the marines because then you're just the singing us exactly there you go i do want to talk about your new single in a second but if you wouldn't mind and i know we asked you to do this at the at the rehearsal would you give us a verse and a chorus of nothing to lose. Yeah. It's just, let me tell you, I can't keep up just trying to sing along with it because

it's so fast. And it's just like, ba-da-da-ba-da-da-da-ba-da-da-da-da-da. There have to be times where sometimes you get off track and just start making stuff, making up sounds. Does that ever happen? Or you pretty much got it. I usually do this song. I usually do the song at the end of the show because everyone's drunk by the time they get there. So they don't realize if I've messed up any the words or not. But you know what? That's the one song that, surprisingly, I have not messed up any of the words. Well, I'll be dang, as my grandma would say. Here he is. Josh Grayson. Give us a verse

and a chorus. Here we go. This is nothing to lose. June time, downtown, breakdowns. Someort time to time. Many times she was looking pretty fine. Real light, green light. Go on fire. Upside downtown. She's shaking me all around. I'm shooting in going nowhere. It's like in winter. And drilling, feeling good if you would. Oh, yeah. By the way she moved.

She's got me rolling dirt. And oh, I do sure. Fricker, break a one now. She's big old thirt. Yep, by now. She's got me pretty time. I choose. I've got nothing to lose. There it is. See?

Just that part alone right there would be like, what? You should have seen Lunchbox's face. He was like, wow. That was... Can you do that much slower? Like, could you slow it way down

and almost do it as a valid? Go ahead. Here we go. It was new time, downtown, break time, summertime, middle time anytime.

She was looking pretty fine. Real out, green light, go on Friday. South downtown. She was shaking. me all around I was tuned in going nowhere

Senko and Jones and drilling feeling good if you want Even that is fast It's too hard to do Even the slow version So You know you mentioned

And I mentioned too That you're working on new music You have this new single I'm gonna play Some of Love Like right now That fire like George's sun got the heat Got that sway like Marvin

Gay got the beat You give me that happy hour feeling every day up the week you got it all you got me yeah you got me I never had love

like midnight a motown final over carolina summer under street lights feels like an old school shabby on a two late south I'm always curious because

you wrote the song when you go into the room with these other guys you know was this idea when it was brought in if it was by you or are these guys like how does this kind of come up in the room and had you guys settle on this song.

Well, it was funny. It came in, we started writing. I've never written with Parker, Casey, or Greg, before. And so it came in the room, and it's kind of intimidating, you know, getting in the, you never know what somebody's going to think of it. And it's songwriting is actually really intimidating because, you know, you always don't want to throw out something that everybody looks at you like, okay, that's, you know, that's not, we're not going to go with that. So, but they were really cool. And we sat down and started some core progressions. I sang a little bit. They sang a little bit. And we kind of mesh the melodies and started writing the lyrics and then

I got what you never want happened in a songwriting situation I was in the middle of a lot of things going on at my time in life and I had a really important phone call that just kept blowing up my phone blowing my phone I walked out and I literally was maybe gone for like five, ten minutes at most and I came back

and they were like, yeah yeah we got the chorus done I was like holy crap you know glad I got glad I got some parts in as far as the as far as the verse and the melody and stuff like that but no they were a great bunch of of writers and we did a real quick, you know, I guess he called living room demo and it kind of took off from there. So, and right now you guys can stream Love Like. It's Josh's new single. Can you, because you're

so good live, and I know we just heard the track there, but I think our listeners like to hear someone play their song. Yeah. So would you mind playing this little verse and chorus of Love Like? Absolutely. You got that fire like George's son got the heat. You got that sway like Marvin. Yeah, got the beat. You give me that happy hour feeling. every day of the week Girl, you got it all

You got me Yeah, you got me Yeah, I never had love like Midnight A multi-battle Lower Cadillight Sun or the street lights Feas like

An old school shabby on two-lane South Friday and crazy Sunday True Never had a love like Love like That's good That you sound great

Thank you. Dang. Listen, stream that song. History repeats. Play a little clip of that? Yeah. Oh, you want to play it? I saw you grab your guitar. I know. I mean, I thought I didn't know. If you want guys want to play a clip of that, that's... What would you rather do? Would you rather play a little bit for us and showcase that fine voice of yours? Oh, that sounds a little hard, but I'll do it. Just give us a little bit of it. Okay. All right. You guys are testing me early in the morning.

Early in the morning for an artist, anyways, I guess to say. know how this goes I know how it ends showing up at your front door like we're just friends you'll take my cold we'll start talking on the cows you'll ask about her see it didn't work out then now staying too long it's one a m i should be gone I should be gone but Don't blame it on the night. Don't blame it on us. You don't blame it on the wine because it ain't strong enough. I won't blame it on you if you don't blame it on me.

Yeah. Oh, let's blame it on history because history repeats. I mean, color me impressed. I knew you could sing. So good, man. But I mean, you're annihilating it. Thank you. I appreciate that.

I'm glad that we didn't play the clip. Holy crap. Josh Grayson is here. He's whooping these songs, man. And I know we're just going to do nothing to lose. Do you know all your songs? Are you like, yeah, I know I'm all, no problem. You know, I don't.

I wish I did. Like if I were to go, you know, I want to live, right? Since that was a top five song for you, do you know I want to live? I do not. You know why? Because I'll tell you why. Go ahead. I'm a big monkey when it comes to hitting the guitar.

And I like to play all the stuff. And I self-taught myself or I taught myself how to play guitar, I think, like 19 years old when I was in college. So I definitely know how to play, like, all the stuff while I'm singing and everything. But that song has got so many intricate rhythms. If I sit there and I try to play the rhythm and sing at the same time, it's not going to work out for me. What is your favorite song? If you're at somebody's house and you go with a buddy. And they're like, this is Josh Grayson.

Countrystar John. And they're like, oh, you play. and they give you a guitar, they're like, play a something. What, like, what cover song do you go to first at a party? Oh, gosh. At a party. Well, see, I'm a sucker for ballad, so those don't go over very well. Oh, come on. Like, what's your ballad? What is he? Because I also hear that soul in your voice, too.

Because I can definitely hear the country, but I do hear like the Motown-influenced soul. Let's remember how to play. I'll play this one. When the rain is blowing in your face. and the whole world is on your case No, that's one. Yeah. No, but I usually do a lot of... I can do this one, hold on.

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? You've been out riding fences for so long now. Your heart won But I know that you've got your reasons These things that are pleasing you Can hurt you somehow

Don't you plowler She'll beat you if she's able You know the queen of hearts is always Your best bed And it sits to me some fine things having to lead upon your table but you only want you can give

Day Hey dude you're so good So you got these two new songs out now Like what's to go? Are you trying to put out a full record? Do you want to? Yeah actually we're looking for End of October Middle of November

To release an album It's always one of those things where you write a bunch of stuff and you kind of want to wait to see if you, you know, write that, just that one thing that might hit you. And being the fact that, you know, I've got my own label, God investor, and I kind of make my own music, we can go out of drop of the hat and go and record, I want to. And I've got so many good friends still in Nashville that kind of believe in me and believe in what I'm doing and think that, you know, get things really going again. And so much so that actually we're getting ready to record a song that Morgan Wallen was gracious enough to let me cut something he wrote,

song called Taking You. So there's a lot of great things happening, a lot of good things going on. Well, I believe in you. When you get that record ready or that song ready, call me up. Absolutely. We'll put you on again. We'll talk about it. Absolutely. This time I don't know how to play a little bit more songs on the spot. Listen, we never put people on the spot that we're not impressed by. I can tell you, no one ever comes in and they suck, and I'm like, we'll do this. We only do that with people. We're like, holy crap. We're actually entertaining. That's really good. So thank you for coming in. You guys follow Josh at Josh. At Josh,

G-R-A-C-I-N. Check out Love Like, check out History of Repeats. I mean, he played a verse and chorus here. Obviously, he's great live. And when you get that record ready, you let me know. Absolutely. All right, there is. Josh Grayson, everybody.

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. On the show this week, we did the spinning wheel, and somebody on the show had to eat the world's sourest candy. I'm not revealing anything because, you know, spoilers. I want you to listen. But Scoobis Steve, we have a fun segment happening, okay? Yeah. This or that?

Okay. You can give with this or you can give with that. Yeah, sing it. Give it. Give us a little karaoke. You can give it with this so you can give it that. You can get with that. I was like ready for you to break out into that really like fast part. You get with this.

Okay. So this is that. This is that. This is that. This or that is the name of the game. Okay. Sour or sweet? I'm going to go.

I like a little bit of both, though. Like, do you ever like sour heads growing up? Is this or that? Okay, all right. I'll go with sweet then. Okay. I have a sweet tooth. I love like candies and chocolates and ice cream and that kind of stuff.

Like any sweet or is there certain sweets you don't like? I like anything sweet. Whether it's natural sweet like fruits or it's like chocolate candy sweets. I love it all. I'm with you on the sweets, but I do not think fruits are sweets. And if somebody gives me like a lemon tar or a strawberry shortcake thing, I'm like, no. I don't want that. I want like chocolate or vanilla or red velvet.

But do you like those sweets though? Do you like fruits? I don't mind them, but I wouldn't choose them. Like if there's something on the menu of like chocolate cake or like strawberry shortcake, I'm totally going chocolate cake. Okay. For me, I think it's rooted as a child. We weren't allowed to have candy.

So I basically supplemented real candy and sweets with fruits. I was allowed to have oranges and watermelon and that kind of stuff. So for me it was always that. And then when I got to be of an age where I could buy my own stuff, I was like, screw you and buying candy. Yes. But I still like fruit though. I enjoy it.

Okay. That's fair. So I'll go with sweet. Okay. West or East Coast? That's tough because I've lived on both. I know. And I am both.

I would have to go West Coast. Okay. Give us a reason. I think even as a child growing up, I was more in tune with West Coast lifestyle, rap. Like I loved NWA Digital Underground versus like Biggie and that and that whole side. Like Tupac.

I mean, I was into it. Two bucks West Coast. Sorry. I just wasn't into the East Coast scene. So I would do more West Coast. Laybacked server lifestyle. Yes. Yeah. Not server.

Surfer. Surf her lifestyle. Yeah. Just to be, I mean, there are beaches on both sides, but it's like that whole vibe. And I've always wanted to be in Hollywood in L.A. And that was my dream as a child. So that's just, that's me at West Coast all day, every day. Oh.

See, I need to go out to the West Coast. I haven't got a chance to. You never been to the West Coast? The only time I've ever been to anywhere on the West Coast was LA to go to Hawaii a few years back when my parents took us on a vacation, but no. Besides that I've not been anywhere. The furthest I've been is Colorado. And that's not even West Coast for me. It's not. It's more Midwest. Yeah. Well, when you're in L.A., were you just, it was just like a airport stop. Okay. So you never really were there. I think we stayed that night and like ate somewhere on a pier,

but I don't really remember it that much. I was younger. So I remember Hawaii, but I don't really remember that little stop that we had. Okay. So whenever I decided to go, you have to tell me. Well, I will for sure. Like I know you give me all the things. Well, yeah. Well, well, Because last this past holiday break, you went and did the whole East Coast tour. I feel like this time you got to do the West Coast. Yes. But West Coast is so much harder to get to from where we are. It is.

But you just got to, you basically have to fly and then rent a car. Yes. And then use that to drive up and down the coast. Which I want to do that. PCH. Yes. Drive that. If you can do the whole thing from Seattle all way down to L.A., which would take a minute,

I highly recommend it. Have you done that before? I've done from NorCal to SoCal, never from Washington down. so that's a buck of this item for me as well to do the whole thing. But even just the parts I've seen from all of California, unbelievable. One aren't the Redwoods in North? Okay. Yeah.

All that's beautiful. All of that. Oh, yeah. So for now I have to choose the East Coast. Again, beautiful, which you need to go to the East Coast to, like, do what we did and go to all of those. That's what I've always wanted to do that as well. Like that Northern area you went to is so cool looking. So awesome.

So much history too, right? Yeah, so much history and so much beautiful scenery that you just don't expect. Because when you think of the Eastwood, East Coast, you're thinking of New York City, right? It's all you think of. And then there's so much more to offer up there. So right now, mine's East Coast, but it could be West Coast. I just haven't been yet.

Yeah. And it makes me really sad that I have not been to half of the United States. I know. You've got to get out there. I know. I appreciate the fact that you're starting. You're trying to do it now. I'm trying. I mean, as you know, it's very hard to take off from work.

It's not really an option most of the time. It's very tough. And as you get older, it becomes even more difficult. if you decide of a family, then it's even more difficult to get out and do stuff. Exactly. Yeah. So when I do decide to go to West Coast, I'm coming to you. Hit me up.

All the suggestions. Yeah. Pancakes or waffles? Oh, man. That's another tough one. That's why this is a good game. I know. It's like who do you.

You cannot choose both. I like both. I like Cracker Barrel pancakes and I like Waffle House Waffles. Oh, those are both very specific to. Yeah. But I want to say when I was living in L.A., I was really big in a diners because they have those really cool, old. It's basically walking back in a time. Oh, like mom and pop diners. Yes. And they're and they keep them the way they are that they keep that 50s, 60, 70s vibe because when they film

movies that have that are like period pieces that are in that era. There's a lot of places in Hollywood where you can film because it's still that vibe and that thing. But when you go to these places, it's so cool not only because you could recognize it from film or television, but it's like, it's just going back in time and the diner and everything there is still pretty affordable. They can go there and get waffles and eggs and, a side dish for like five bucks and some really crappy coffee for a dollar so and i always would try to go and try a bunch of different waffles never pancakes so because of that i'm going with waffles and i've tried like probably 50 different kind of waffles what's your favorite kind of waffle

um i think it'd have to be the super thin crunchy waffle okay so wait the 50 different kinds were they different flavors or were they different like just differently made just different different place everyone has their own recipe mean like plain some of them were like very much the same but just like going to many different places throughout SoCal, like different diners or restaurants that serve waffles. I would say some of them like playing, some insert some sort of fruits or they infuse it with CBD or TAC. Amazing. Did you ever have a bad waffle? I love waffles.

So no, I never had a bad waffle. There's certain foods that like if you make them wrong. Yeah. You're really bad at what you do because it's very hard to mess things up. It's a staple, yeah. Yes. Waffle is one of them. It's a breakfast.

If you can't make a really good waffle and you're a breakfast, your breakfast spot. If you're a, it's being around me or words are hard. Exactly. I can't move my mouth. If you can't make a good waffle, you are not a legitimate breakfast spot.

Agreed. Yeah. Even pancake too. I know this is this or that, but if you can't make a good pancake, yeah. Like just step off. Just give up.

Yes. Your business is crap. And I used to say that about pizza, but then I learned that they're not. are the places that don't make it. No, cardboard pizzas exist. Yes. Oh my God.

Bad lessons learned. But I'm the opposite with you on this one. You like the pancakes? Chocolate chip pancakes every time. Okay, so when you do your trip for the West Coast, there's a place in L.A., and you got to get there right when they open. It's called the Riddle Cafe,

and it's right in the heart of Hollywood. And there's usually a long line if you go there after 8 a.m. But you're a morning person, so you go there right at 6 or 7 when they open. Old school diner. It's got like it's really cool, low top bar. but their pancakes are like the size of this desk. It's like,

they're massive. Like I would say like maybe 24 inches in diameter. They're huge, meant to be shared, but they got really good chocolate chip pancakes and they're huge. I love that. Yes.

Okay. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Anyone listening, you're going to LA, go to the griddle. The griddle cafe?

Is that you say? I think it's a griddle cafe. I always call it the griddle. Maybe the official name is a griddle cafe. I can look it up for you while you're talking about something else. Yeah, well, you're like Googling on like Google Fest.

Okay. Well, I mean, I think I'm made. They have your answer to this one now that we've had this discussion and it's a perfect one to lead into. Okay. Breakfast or dinner? Oh, breakfast all day, every day.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. I had breakfast at my wedding. What? Oh, yeah. We talked about that while back. Yeah. And I loved it.

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Okay. That was an easy. For sure. And it is called the griddle cafe. That's the official name it looks like here.

And worth the wait, even if you have to wait, right? Yeah. I don't like lines. So I would never wait. But if you're okay with waiting. Then it's great. This is where we learn that. Scoopisee doesn't have the patience to wait in a line.

Oh, I'm bougie as hell. Sunset and Fairfax Avenue. Go there and then go down Fairfax Avenue and check out all of the really cool West Hollywood clothing stores. All their flagship stores are right there. Okay, that's cool. Hey, pro tip. Yeah.

You're going to California. So yeah, breakfast. What about you? Breakfast. I'm with you. Yeah, I can eat breakfast for lunch or dinner. Oh, hell yeah. Like breakfast for dinner is one of my favorites.

Oh, my God. It's amazing. Yes. That's because our parents were lazy, but I appreciated it. Oh, I still, this is so fun to me. Like, nothing. There is nothing as satisfying as like just even like a eggs, toast, like very simple breakfast. Yes.

I love like all the different kinds now, but like a simple breakfast that still make me happy. Perfect. Have you ever had an egg in a hole in a bread? No. Where you just basically, it's just, it's pretty simple. You just take a piece of bread and then you take a small cup or you cut it and cut a hole in the middle and then put the egg in the middle of the bread and then you like fry it in a pan. Both sides? Yeah, I'm going to try that.

It's difficult. I mean, I like bread and I like eggs. Yeah, kind of just goes together. Yeah. Have you, oh, we talked lunchbox and I brought this up on last and it was like a throwback. Okay. Have you ever had toast with cinnamon sugar on it? That's the only way you can do it. Yeah.

My grandma, I didn't know what cinnamon was because I always thought cinnamon was the way she made it. And it'd be in this little Flintstones jar that she'd shake up cinnamon and sugar. That's until I always acquitted cinnamon toast to just be that. And then when they went to her friend's house and I want some cinnamon toast and his mom was like, you want cinnamon on toast? And I was like, yeah. And she made it. It was awful. And then I realized that my grandma puts sugar in everything.

The best part about this is every time it gets brought up, we all had these specific containers that held this mixture in our houses. Yeah. What was your house? Because, yeah, you couldn't buy it from the store. You had to make it. Yes. Well, at first it was a country crock butter thing. Okay.

But then eventually we bought a little, like one of those shakers used for other things that we put an entire mixture of cinnamon sugar because we ate it so much. Oh, real quick. That we had to have something to, like, pour it on. Yeah, breakfast every day was cinnamon toast. Yep, every morning, like total throwback. Don't know why we stopped eating it when we got older. Like, it's mostly sugar. Yeah, because my grandma wasn't there to make it for me.

So, yeah, when we go back to visit, she'd always want it enough, I want my toast. And then the best part of it was we got older to make it ourselves. You ever do the spray butter? No. Oh, you ever had spray butter before? Yeah. Okay, yeah, you loaded. Popcorn.

Yeah, you load it up with spray butter. It's that way, like, cakes with butter. And then you, of course, as you're pouring it, like, seeps into the butter. And so you pour, like, a nice thick layer on it. And then now you've just basically made cinnamon, sugar, butter on top of your toast. It's awesome. I want to have to do it. I've been thinking about doing this again ever since lunchbox and I talked about.

Now you've encouraged me to continue trying to figure out how to get in time. And I'm going to put it into my kids' lives now. I know. He's going to have that. It is this thing that we have to bring back for the next generations because it was such an important part of our lives. Oh, it was massive. Yeah.

And so many things that we just don't talk about until it got brought up. And then everybody, like even on the B-Team Facebook page, there was this whole thread of people like, oh my gosh, I didn't know like we all did this. Yeah, it was like everybody did it. Our family, yeah. It was our thing. Because some people didn't do it. Like I went to my friend's house and they thought I was crazy. Did you ever?

So there was two specific cereals that I would eat as a kid and I would put sugar on them. Okay. Rice Krispy Treats. Okay. And raisin nut brand. Okay. Two cereals that I would load with sugar when I ate them. Did you ever put like sugar sugar on cereal?

Never put sugar on them. You know what it meant. I just wanted to say that. I know, it was so good. That's another thing that's weird about me. I love sugar and I love sweets. But my cereal, I like it to be like, I'm like an old crotchety man. I like plain Cheerios.

I like plain weaties. You don't like the fruity cereals. I don't mind them. I don't mind them. They're good. I'll have them. But I just like the brands, like the raisin brands. My favorite is the oatmeal squirrels.

squares, the toasted oatmeal squares. You are an old man. Yeah. And it just starts, it's just so good to have a nice plain brand cereal. Yeah. You heard yourself, right? You heard what that sounded like. And the daily newspaper and my coffee. Oh, man. Yeah. I know, well, I knew it was like kind of a crazy thing that I did. Like, who puts more sugar on sugar cereal? But I always did that and it always tasted so good. Now I can't eat them. So I don't even buy them because I can't eat them. So I can't them without sugar on them and Lord knows I cannot eat that like I used to. Yeah, metabolism has definitely slowed down as we get older. Yes.

Oh my gosh. Okay, we have a few more. We'll roll through them. All right, let's do it. Day or night? Day and night. My, my... Not the song.

I think it's changed throughout my life. When I was younger, it was definitely night. Yeah. Now it's definitely the daytime. I'm the kind of person that even on our off days and weekends and stuff, I still find myself getting up early, like getting up not as early as we do to hear. but still in the 6 o'clock hour I'll get up on the weekends. That way I can just get everything in.

I like getting out early too because when you beat traffic, you beat everyone else who sleeps in and all that kind of stuff. So I'm a day person now, especially as a father. Definitely day. We're adding to Escobah's old list. Omeal, what are they called? Omeal squares. I like the daytime.

Reading the newspaper. Checking my lottery numbers. Oh my gosh. Mine's still night. I have not crossed over. It's the one thing that's still, I'm still a night out. I would love to stay up late. Like, I could say up until 3 a.m.

But I try not to because I don't have that option anymore. Yeah, yeah, it's too tough. Yes. So, I have your ongoing list over here. My ongoing old man list. I love trolling. I love trolling. You lunchbox and Eddie about getting old because you don't let it bother you, but those two do.

I accept it. I embrace getting older. And it's just. Just part of life. And to be fair, I have my dentist, Dr. Schmidt, who's so awesome. He did my Envisaline, but he calls it instead of older, you are vintage. Vintage. That's a nice way to put it's a nice connotation for it.

Yes. And he was like, I'm not old. I'm vintage. And I was like, you know what? You are? Like really, because everything that's old is new again. Always. Yeah, always.

That's a nice way to put it. I'll start coining that phrase. Yeah, you're vintage. I'm vintage. I ain't old. I'm vintage. Okay. Tattoes are piercines.

I would have to, I guess, do piercings because I don't want tattoos and I don't like tattoos. Right there with you. Yeah, I have my ears pierced. I have both ears pierced. Wait, still? Yeah. I mean, they haven't closed up, I imagine. But they're there.

I could put an earring in there if I wanted to. Just like little diamonds? Little diamonds. Yeah, I used to wear black diamonds. Up until about four years ago. I'm picturing you with black diamonds right now. I just can't, I can't see it. Yeah.

When I was younger as a kid, I wanted ears pierce. My mom wouldn't do it. So I used to get from Clares or Pearson Pagoda or whatever, I used to get this magnetic. earrings. And what's funny is you didn't want to tell your friends that you didn't get your ears pierced, but it was obvious after Jim when your ear, your piercing went from right in the middle of the year and shifted to the left.

Yeah, those magnetic piercings there are crap. They're awful. Oh my gosh. Yeah, so ears pierced. I'm with you. I still have my belly button pierced and people are like, Morgan, you're like 27. I was like, yeah, I got it when I'm 16. What else am I going to do with it?

I'm going to take it out. There's going to be a hole there? No. I'm just going to embrace it and wear it. Yeah, it's there. I may bring back my earrings. Who knows? Let's see.

I always want to do one of those. I dare you to bring back your earrings. Just come one day, don't tell anyone that I got them. Yes. Just bring them in and just rock them and just see if anybody noticed. You know, which may take a minute because of our ear,

our headphones over our ears a lot. Oh, trust me, every time you'll see me never wear earrings because they immediately go into my, like, head. Would hurt, right? Yes, it does not feel comfortable.

Because I want those dangling ones that's got the cross dangling on it, like George Michael. Let me tell you a story, okay? before my boyfriend. And I had gone on a date, a few dates with this guy. And he wore one of those. How do you feel about those?

I didn't like it. I wanted to. I was like, you know, like he rocked it. Like that was his style, right? Like it fit with what he wore and how he wore things.

But I was like, I just can't take you seriously. I can't. I couldn't. Every time I thought, I was like, do we have to have that? And it would dangle and jiggle

and he move his head. I just couldn't. I couldn't. But it's very, in style right now. Yeah. And it's very much a thing people do.

And I wanted to like it. I was like, I just can't get... Did he have both ears or just the one? Just the one. Okay, and that's where I started. I started with just the one because Michael Jordan always had the one

hoop and I want to be like Michael Jordan. And then one day it was like it wasn't cool to have the one. You should have both. So I have both. All the fads changing over a few months.

Yep. Stick with the other earrings. I don't know. I just, I cannot get behind that trend. Yeah, yeah. I want to do it, but I don't think I don't think I can pull it off. So I'll do the black diamonds. Yeah. Yeah, I'll try that. I want to see that

happen. I'll wear it one day and you'll know and no one else will, but you'll know. I will. I'll see. I'll be like, I know what's happening. Okay. Mustard or mayo? Oh, I think I'll have to do mustard because I like different kinds of mustard. So I'm a mustard guy. Do you like honey mustard? I love honey mustard. So good. So underrated. It's fantastic. And I make this thing I always call redneck chicken. And it's basically, it's best with chicken thighs because they're pretty juicy. But you can do chicken breast and I make this concoction where I take honey mustard a little bit of like the harder mustard like the grapeupon or whatever they call it and then I mix it with some um not vinegar but it's rice wine vinegar and a little bit of sugar and you mix that together and it creates this like

sauce and you bake it on the chicken and it comes out it's just freaking phenomenal dang very very you need a post about that because I bet people will totally try it yes and so I love mustard to answer your question yeah all kinds spicy hot sweet whatever I love Mustard. Do you dip your fries in mustard? Honey mustard? Anything like that? Yeah.

Okay. Especially sweet potato fries. Sweet potato fries do not go well with ketchup. They need mustard or some sort of like sweeter based sauce. Ranch. Ranch is good, yeah. And not ketchup. I hate when you get those fries and they give you ketchup.

You're like, this doesn't go together. Ugh. Garbage. Hey, tell me how you really feel about this potato's in mustard or in ketchup. It sucks. That's what it is. It sucks. Yes.

And you know what's funny too is. is I always loved honey mustard my entire life. Never liked mustard up until the last few years. Never like regular mustard. Like french's mustard ever. Like putting it on sandwiches. And I get that from somebody who puts sugar in their cereal. You like the sweeter mustard.

I always like sweet things. My sweet deal is a problem in my life. But yeah, until recently, but now it's been added to my sandwiches and I actually really like it. Do you like the ones where it's almost like mustard seedy where it's like really hardcore mustard?

I do with pretzels. Okay. Oh, yes. But pretzels, it's fantastic. Yeah. Or a really good sandwich. It kind of can be good with it too. If it mixes like with the right ingredients.

Yeah. But I mean, it was a good thing for me to add things to my sandwiches because being a vegetarian, my sandwich is always consisted of first off like before I expanded my taste buds. A few different cheeses, lettuce, mayo, and black olives. Oh, it sucks. It's very uneventful. But at least I have upgraded now to adding tomatoes and mustard, which are two things I did not use to like. I don't like tomatoes at all. Yeah, I didn't either.

It's the texture. I don't mind the byproducts of tomatoes like ketchup and marinera sauce and all that, but an actual tomato, I just even thinking about I gag, I can't do it. That's interesting. Yeah, it's a texture thing. Yeah. See, I didn't use slang. It wasn't a texture thing, but now I'll even eat them by themselves.

Like an apple? Not like that. Not like to take a bite in it. Like if there's a slice, I'll eat like a slice. Okay, all right. Okay. Yeah, strange. Why do you not like it initially?

I don't know. I have no idea. I just never. Honestly, though, being a vegetarian, I would eat like four food groups. Okay. Carps, carbs, and more carbs. And cheese. Literally.

It was like grilled cheese, pasta, mashed potatoes, and cassidias. So you need to expand your horizon as a vegetarian. As I got older and I moved to Nashville. I mean, I lived in Kansas and I went to chain restaurants all the time, right? Which were awesome. When I was younger, Wichita has done awesome to expand that now. But when I moved to Nashville, like I greatly. expanded my taste buds. Oh, yeah. And like now I eat salads and vegetables and things that

vegetarians actually eat. Totally. And if you go to places like L.A., it's like, it's a thing. It's there are full-on restaurants where they try to fool you that there's meat in there. And I can tell. I'll tell you right now. This is not real. This is garbage. We went to a spot with my cousin who's hardcore vegetarian. And she's like, you'll find something on the menu. They have pasta or whatever. I was like fine. And I ordered a lasagna. And I got to take my first bite in lasagna. It's like chewing on tree bark. And I'm like, what the hell is in here? And I'm like, like, you can't. mess up noodles and cheese and they go, whoa, this is vegan or whatever it is. We don't have cheese. So we've crunched up a bunch of nuts and put some powder in there and call it cheese.

And I was like, someone take me to Taco Bell. I can't. I need to eat before we go to this show. It just sucks. But they've got those options out there if you want. Yes. Strictly no meat at all. No, I applaud the people that I can be vegan and do that. I've wanted to. But cheese is such a part of my diet. And fake cheese is so gross to me. Awful. And I can't. I just can't. I mean, I eat shredded cheese by the hand. So like I love cheese. You couldn't break away from that. No, that's the one thing I can't break away from.

Yeah, it'd be tough. So I feel you on that. Did you ever have a food that you didn't like, but now you do? Brussels sprouts? Okay, yeah. I didn't like those, but I love them. Brussels sprouts, asparagus. My wife's family opened me up to a lot of vegetables because growing up as a kid,

you maybe were similar, it was all canned foods. So all the vegetables to me just tasted like aluminum. And so I didn't like them because they were garbage. It just tasted, no matter what you did it, it didn't taste good. But then my wife, her family is Filipino. They do a lot of fresh cooking. So all their vegetables were fresh. It was fresh green beans.

It was fresh, everything. And so I always was very hesitant to try it. But I would try it. I'm an adult. Let me just open my mind up. I'm like, oh, my God, this is amazing. What I remember, my mom making, sorry, mom, her green bean cassero. Her green meat casserole, it tasted like you're eating out of an aluminum can.

This tastes like a green bean. It's delicious. So I equate that to her family of trying new fresh vegetables. And so I've opened myself up to more, not tomatoes ever, but at least. other things like green beans and asparagus, Brussels sprouts. What else? The greens basically is what that sounds like for you. Yeah, I like the greens.

That was green. Yeah, pretty much the greens I'm into. Yeah, I don't think any kid ever really likes the greens. No. I still won't do broccoli. Broccoli, just to smell of broccoli makes me want to throw up. It's awful. So tomatoes and broccoli, if I put those on your desk, you ain't got me happy.

Oh, no, I'd go home. I'd leave. I'd leave you wherever you're out. You'd figure yourself out to get home because it ain't going to be from me. Oh, my gosh. Okay. That was good. One last one.

All right. We'll go on to the last moment. Internet or cable. Okay. Oh, I shouldn't say cable. Because cable's kind of old school now. I have cable. I have cable.

Hey, old school. Put it on your old man list. Steve has cable. To be fair. Up until last month, I still had a version of cable. Okay. I'm just saying like now people are going away from it.

So it's kind of easy to like no cable. So internet or like streaming services. Like, things to watch TV shows and movies. Yeah, I guess I'd have to do internet because for me, streaming is great, but it's the anxiety of finding something to watch. Unless you're into a show and you're watching and you've committed, like we're at a point with us with kids,

I hate to keep saying, well, with us with kids, you know, it's going to suck Morgan when you have children. Let me keep it right. That one doesn't count. You're a dad. But your free time, though, you literally try to watch television, but your kids, you know, you want to hang out with them as well. well. And if you watch TV, they're making noise or doing things and you can't listen or hear

things or pay attention to the show. And when I watch a movie or a show, I like to fully involve and dive myself into it. I'm watching. I don't have my phone near me. I'm just going to, I want to watch it. I want to take this show in or a movie. And when you have kids, you can't do that because they're constantly pulling out to you. I have to go pee. I need this. This is happening. I'm crying. I'm hungry. I want this, that and the other. So you get five minutes into it. The posit, pause it. Pause it. You get the point. Like, forget it. I'm not watching anything. I don't. I can't watch anything. It takes me almost three days to get through one 40 minute episode. So, so, so, so. Way too frustrating. So way too frustrating. So when you say cable, I don't mind cable

because I can just put on anything in the background, it doesn't matter. But so if we're going with streaming or internet service, I have to go internet. Just because growing up as a kid, when internet became a thing, it was just such a mind-blowing thing that I can go on to this computer and connect to people across the globe or find pictures or things or look up. things around the world. Like, I remember back in the day, you just Google, like, Egypt just to see Egypt because you could never see it before. Oh, and did you ever?

I could tell us going somewhere. Did you ever go what? Did you ever hear or just get all with your friends? Chat roulette. Chat roulette. Yeah. What is that? So it was, it made me think.

No, no, no. Okay, so I laugh because there's dirty moments on it, not intentionally like that. We were doing. Chat roulette. So, just to figure, I don't know what's going to pop up on your computer. It was. I don't know if it even still exists, but it used to be this tool where you would get on and you would literally randomly. I see this, yeah.

Meet somebody from anywhere in the world. Sounds safe. Virtually. Yeah. And it was really cool. You'd meet really cool people. Like, you would be sitting there with your friends. You ever did it by yourself, you know.

This shows videos. Like, it's still a thing. Yeah. So it's like, it's like Zoom, but like international. And you're not purposely. connecting to one person. You're connecting with a stranger. And it was only video. It was a video thing? Video and talk. Like you talk to them. It's like a virtual like it's a zoom with a stranger.

Gotcha. This must have been, this must have been after me because I was AOL at 1.0, 2.0. We still had AOL. Okay. This was another thing that came on. I want to say this happened towards the end of my middle school years, beginning of high school years. When webcans became a thing. Yes. For me, the webcams weren't a thing at all. And then yeah, okay. I got you.

So like we'd have sleepovers and everybody like, let's get on chat, relax. You try and find cute guys, right? Yeah, yeah. But, you know, there's always the dirty people that are on there that are doing things and you have to like quickly pass. Whoa, whoa, whoa, it's guys weeders out. Literally. That's why I was giggling because I was like, there's awkward moments. But, like, we'd have really cool conversations with a group of guys who are also our age in France.

Oh, that's so cool. And you talk about random things. What's America? What's France like? Yeah, like you just had these cool conversations. And the concept behind it was so cool. And we had some really fun moments on there where you're just sitting there with your bunch of friends and you're talking to. potentially cute guys or random other fun groups of girls that you'll never meet.

Yeah. But yeah. It was a really cool concept. I wonder if anyone ever did meet. If they ever did pivot into reality. I don't, I mean, I know it, I know it was kind of a drop into the virtual dating realm. It kind of is. Yeah, totally.

People would meet and they'd be like, oh, my gosh. Like, you know, some people believe in love in first sight. I'm sure that happened out there. It never, I mean, ours was all just like fun and games. Yeah. sleep overnight. Totally. But yeah, I'm sure that happened because that was like that first kind of start of it. But it existed for several years. Okay. But yeah. That's pretty cool. You made me think of chat roulette and that's just another flashback. Yeah, I never did that one. And maybe it was

after the time because I got to a point where then I got busy with work and life and probably moved off from that. But I remember, yeah, the internet in general was a mind blowing thing. Yeah. Well, you're sitting there like, you live in London? Yeah. Or like you'd meet somebody from New Zealand and you're like, oh, it's like nighttime. Like, you're just mind blown that this is a possibility to even be talking to somebody. You don't know from across the world. And especially because we grew up in a time frame where like long distance calls were expensive and you couldn't do it. Or you're like, only call me on nights and weekends and after 7 p.m.

Because before that, it costs me a crap lot of money to make a phone call. So to be able to not only to make a phone call in a sense, but a video call with anyone around the world. And for free. And for free. That is really cool. Or as many hours you had in your AOL CD. Yep. Yes

So yeah You made me think of that What was your screen name on? Do you have like screen names on chat related Or was the same thing as AOL? No, you didn't You just put like your name Okay

If I remember correctly You might have been able to do like a screen name But honestly we were so focused To get into the video I don't think I really want to get us to the guys Get us to the guys You know a bunch of middle school girls Yeah totally

Do you remember your chat name on AOL Your screen name? I don't think it was anything embarrassing Because I can't remember it Did you have an embarrassing one? It was Stephen Hollywood. It wasn't anything like embarrassing. Stephen Hollywood. Yeah, that was it. It's like you predicted your whole life.

Pretty much. Yeah. And it was funny because I kind of forgot about it. That was like in the late 90s. And then I started working with Seacrest at like 2014. I remember my very first day working with them like, like, hey, would you remember your instant messenger screen name? And I was like, what is this like a topic or something? Like no, no. We do all are communicating behind the scenes on AOL instant messenger. So I remember my first couple years with Ryan Seacrest's National and Big Show out of L.A. We used AOL Instant Messenger until the day it died. Because I remember when it was coming to a point where they're like, hey, AIM is going away.

We're pivoting to something else, you know, figure out, it basically got an email saying, figure out another means to communicate. So we were still using AOL chat rooms from 2014 up until about 2018 on a nationally massive multimil million dollar show. So you're telling me, you were using it for works to talk to your employees. And I'm sitting here writing breakup away messages on AIM to my supposed boyfriends I didn't have. Yeah, totally. That's what I was doing with AIM. Yeah, but then we were using in the time like 2015. I thought it died in like the 90s, early 2000s. And here we are. That's what they were using. And then we pivoted to Slack, which I tried to use here and no one wanted to use it. And I was like, all right.

Oh, yeah. We just communicate in a group message. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. I was like, all right. never mind slack was great but yeah that's funny yeah I was like this thing what I thought it was dead yeah I didn't know it was still around I didn't know it was around either I couldn't remember my password so I had to sign up for a new account when didn't you have to be on a specific internet to be on aOL well oh yeah while back it was only a well's internet so you would dial up and you'd like hey make sure no one's on the phone because I'm dialing up right now that's what it was yeah and if you call someone's house to be oh damn step was the internet yeah so yeah to get a direct connection then this was just whatever internet service you're using,

you just download the AIM app, and you would click on it and sign in. A little running guy. Yeah, a little yellow guy. Yeah. Still remember him. Yeah. And then they,

I think they did away with it like fully in 2018. And then we had to pivot and move these other chat rooms to connect. Wow. So many throwbacks, but also so many cool moments. Yeah. I love it. That was good.

This or that. That was fun. Yeah. Good work. That was a good job. I like that. All right. Well, you guys can listen right now to see who on the show had to eat the world's

sourest candy and who. saw it happen and then decided to try it as well. Number two. It's now time for the wheel of sour. We have the world's most sour candy here. There's a video of a guy, four seconds, he started choking because it was so sour. So everybody's names on the wheel. Bobby, Amy, Eddie, lunchbox, scuba, Steve, Raimundo, and Mike D.

I mean... And it lands on you, you eat the candy. Oh, gosh. You have to keep in your mouth for 20 seconds. If you don't, that one gets thrown away. do another one until it adds 20 seconds. Like sour patch kids are hard for me. Yeah, exactly.

Those look a lot sour than that. This is a practice spin, right? Oh, practice. Why a practice? Why do we practice? Practice. And whoever it lands on would have lost. Okay.

But this is a practice. Oh, my God. Let's spin that wheel. The loser would have been Raymundo. So you know Raymuno is not going to lose this time. That's why it's not good. No, lunch hooks, all the odds are still the same. They're not.

Yeah, they are. Okay, you think that. We will spin the wheel. Whomever it lands on has to eat the sour candy. Bobby, like, is there anyone you're cheering for? Just not me. Okay. I have to wear a cat tail next week for a couple days.

Here we go. It is the world's sourest candy. Oh, can you hear me? You ready? It is 250G of sour. I don't know what that means. Grams.

Oh, he's spitting everywhere. Dude, what happened? My head hurts. Oh, what's that? So it's so sour, it's hot or something? No, no, it's just like, it's almost like a brain freeze, it's just so sour and you can't... So it's cold? No, I don't get it.

I just like, ew. I was starting crying. That was so bad. Is anybody else curious? No. Do you want to try it? I mean, I could try it, but not for 20 seconds. but not for 20 seconds.

Give her the trash can. Oh, my goodness.

That's disgusting. She's dry. Whoa. She's not laughing. And who was the drama queen? You were like, oh, what were you doing? You were doing the same day. You did dry heat. Maybe it like, you don't even know what you're doing. Talk through it. What just happened? It's disgusting. At first you're like, oh, it's not bad. This is nice. And then it instantly switches to like, I'm going to need to eat something for sure to get rid of this because my eyes are watering.

It's like an acid type. You know, like when you have acid reflex and like say you eat something and then it comes back up. That's what it tastes like. It's so gross. Like grow up? Yeah, kind of. Yeah. Hey, let's save these.

We'll have artists come in and be like, hey, we guys. Nice. I like it. That's great. We have candy for you. Well, nice. You're good job, you too. Well, not you lunch because you lost. But Amy, good job from trying to get out. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.

Coming in at number one, today, if you're listening to this on Saturday, September 11th, this marks the 20th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks. So we brought on Darrell Worley, and he performed his song, Have You Forgotten, which is one of the really big emotional 9-11 songs. and it was a really cool moment to have him in studio, to talk about the inspiration behind that song, like what all went down. And on the show, y'all heard me talk about kind of my 9-11 moment

where I was in the library. I vividly remember it when you're a kid. You really don't remember much, right? Like, it's kind of hard to recall events, but I remember that one. In the library, parents picked me up early and a somber day. But beyond that, I don't have a lot of recollection.

And as I got older, I knew it. And I, you know, two years ago got to visit the 9-11 memorial in New York, which was super emotional. Yeah. Especially as an adult, like, fast forward, 18 years. And I'm like, the last thing I remember was being in a library and now this is what it is now. It's that huge hole in the ground. It's surreal. You look at it.

You just kind of, you know, it's just like, wow, that. Because I've never seen that, and you've never seen them. I've never seen the towers in real life. I've only seen them in movies. And you've only, like, the only recollection I have of that is seeing them. on that library. Is that moment, yeah. Or yes, what movies have created them.

Yeah, exactly. So that was like my moment and that was like something that was really emotional for me in recent years. Do you remember where you were when this happened? Oh, yeah. I was in, I think towards the end of my high school career. And we were, I forget what class it was in East Coast time. So we were in line with New York.

So when it happened, I think it was in the 8 o'clock hour. So it was towards the beginning of the day, like first or second period, maybe third period. And I remember walking into the classroom and it was one of those things where we had TVs in the classroom They were like really crappy TVs, but we had TVs in the classroom and it was one of those things where the principal came on. It was like everyone please turn on channel two news turn on channel two news And they turned it on to turn it on and so they turned it on After the first plane I just hit because that's when everyone turned it on So we just saw this one tower with smoke coming out of it and we're all like what the heck is that and and I didn't really know what the twin towers really was I was just kind of like I just knew it was in New York and and and and and a building was

was on fire. I was like, what is going on right now? And I remember as soon as she turned it on, that, like, in that exact moment, you saw this other plane come through and hit the second tower. And I was like, oh, my God, there are planes hitting buildings in New York. And then it just kind of hit me. And I was like, I was like, oh, my God, I feel like, I was like, there's something, this is not right. Because we didn't know what was happening at the moment. You've probably seen a documentaries where they talk about, they thought maybe some guy was flying a small prop plane and lost control or whatever. But then when you see a second plane come through and hit, you're like, oh, this is something more than that.

This is obviously planned. You know, they have a motive here. I just remember just sitting there for a moment not knowing how to feel. Also, I was a teenager, so you kind of are in a different space than when you are as an adult and as a parent, you kind of think about things differently, different kind of perspective. But even just as a kid, a careless teen, I was like, you know, someone who could, you know, I just got my license.

It was like that kind of part of my life. So it was a fun time. You know, you got a license. You're hanging out. You're having a good time. And this happens. like, holy crap, so what does this mean? Like what?

The feeling of uncertainty of what does this mean? What does this mean for us? Because now our country's been attacked. And we have lived in a place where, for the most part, we're safe. We don't live in other places overseas. And in the Middle East where every single day they have to worry about if they're going to make it through the day. Because bombings and shootings and terrorist attacks and stuff like that happen every

day in places like that. So for us, we've been blessed and grateful to. and this is a tangent, but like, how do we, like, how are we picked to take this life? Like, you know, when you're born? You're always like, so who decides, what decides where we live here and someone else grows up in poverty in Afghanistan? Like, how is that chosen? You know, why am I here?

And I start thinking about all these things, like, why am I here in America? Why wasn't I, why wasn't I picked to be born somewhere else and live through this? And then you start thinking about that perspective, like, oh, my God, here we are in America. But now America is being attacked and what else is going to happen? And then next, you know, you hear of another one. The Pentagon gets hit. So we're watching it all in real time in our, I think it was my geometry class.

We're watching it all in real time of the second one hitting, the Pentagon. And then now our school's like, so what do we do? I mean, we're not subject to terrorist attack in OVita Winter Springs, Florida, but we are close to Disney World. So now they're like, you know, all big tourist places are, you know, could potentially be hit. So living near Disney World, they're like, all right, everyone. Orlando needs to be prepared because they could fly a plane or do something at Disney or Universal or the beaches like anywhere.

And I remember, correct me if I'm wrong. I vaguely remember that a lot of things kind of shut down for a few days. Yeah, it was kind of like that because we didn't know what was going to happen. Yeah. And we were trying to put the pieces together if more was going to occur. If it was if it was just this one moment or if this is going to be a string of events, you don't know. It's a lot of uncertainty and a lot of unknowns.

So living in a place like Orlando, which was a. a hot spot for tourism and people internationally come in a visit, could we be, you know, next? Could we be next? And when could it be? Could it be today? Could it be tomorrow? Could it be next week?

Like, no one knew. No one knew. We had no idea. I mean, we still don't know. Like anything can happen at any point in time. So I just remember being in school, seeing it play out. And then it got to a point where the fourth one happened where the plane crashed in that field in Pennsylvania.

And then my school would decide, okay, we need to take action and do something. And so I don't know why they did this, but I remember, we immediately did like a emergency evacuation of how we would handle things if we were under attack. So then it was like emergency, it's a drill but not a drill because we could be attacked. And if they threw a bomb at Disney World, how much of the area around Disney is affected were maybe 20 miles out. But if you drop a bomb, it could affect a certain radius around Disney. So what do we do? So our school's like, well, let's do a drill.

Let's have everyone evacuate the school as far as possible. So then we did this evacuation drill And I remember just we all left school And we're kids So we're just kind of like oh this is great We get to leave school This is cool So I remember evacuating and then hop into my Jeep

And piecing out And my excuse was like well I felt unsafe I want to leave school I want to go home But of course being a little snotenot no teenager I was like I want to get the hell out of here And go to the beach So I remember leaving

And going to the beach Like we left and went to 7-11 grab slurpees And high-tailed it out of there Because we took advantage of leaving But also like we should probably leave too just in case something does happen. Let's get out of here. Yeah.

So, yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. That is, and I feel like, too, after that, I remember, like, if we ever went anywhere after that, like, even if we went on an airplane and, of course, the security, you know, that's when that all started. There's a whole new world of security in a sense. Yeah.

Like, I feel like as a kid, that's kind of where my anxiety of, like, large areas and, like, tragic situations kind of came combined. I another thing I remember a stint off of that like it was really hard for me to be in like big locations or crowded spaces after that because I was worried anywhere I went that could happen right like you had this like realization that anything could happen to at any moment and as a kid I'm sitting there and I'm having this really big thought that I'm like oh my gosh I could I could not be here after this and that started that and that has continued in my life which is crazy like it wasn't until like like this kind of week that I started thinking about it again, but like after really big tragic moments, that anxiety comes back every time. Yeah. I don't want to go and be in a crowded space.

I don't want to be where there's not good security around because I'm afraid of that happening. Yeah. And it's like a really, and it's happened ever since that moment. And that's carried with me my entire life. And I wasn't even close to it. So I can't imagine the people that were up there around those attacks

what they carry with them. Oh my gosh the anxiety they have even just being a spectator on the streets. Yeah. You know like seeing that. It gives you a whole different feeling of being in a crowded place like you said. I know. Yeah. It's really crazy to think how our world has changed since that moment.

Oh yeah. And even flying like we jokingly say, I'm ready to fight at any moment in time. But that was one of those things where every time I get on a plane now, like I don't go. I know people like to drink at the airports and get tossed and get on the plane and whatever. That's fine. But for me, I like to go to the plane sober. Oh, I'm with you. Yeah, because if something goes down, I'm like, okay, what could I use as an object to take out that person? And I don't know how airplanes have changed a little bit.

Now the cockpit door now has like a lock on it and it's bulletproof and all these things. But still, you know, I'm not, if I want to be aware and coherent that if someone tries to take over this plane, they're going to have to come through me and a couple other people that I've scouted out, they're going to come help me. I'm going to use my belt as a weapon. Like, what could I use as a weapon? But it sucks that we have to think that way. Because we shouldn't have to think that way.

No. Like how do we need to fight or flight in a sense in any situation at a venue, on a plane at school? Because of things like Columbine and those theater shootings, it's almost like those things they happen. They teach us how to move forward in life, but it also sucks that they happen in the first place. It is a absolute terrible thing that teaches us a really hard lesson. Yeah. That we don't want to learn. Totally.

And it also makes you think of like crap. as a father now, like what happened to that adult or that teen in their life to make them want to do these things to hurt other people? Like, like, was there no one around? No one saw any signs. They always like, well, he was a good kid. He was a good kid. He always kept himself and he had straight A's and all this stuff. And you're like, well, there must have been something that showed that this person had some sort of signs of something.

Like someone just doesn't go from being a regular everyday kid to blowing things up or shooting a school down. It's like what happened. So I always look at it that way of like, like, how could you help somebody? Even in our everyday life, if someone's down, I'm like, okay, well, I don't, I don't, I don't want to go to the extreme of, okay, this person's down. They're going to blow up a school. But I'm like, but something could lead to that where someone is down and then they think of things that they wouldn't normally think of because they're down for whatever the reason may be. So I always, I guess my point is I always try to look at people with a different perspective and a different light of like, okay, everyone's hurting in some way. how badly is somebody hurting because you don't want them to take it out on others.

Absolutely. Like you just, you lead with kindness because you don't ever know what somebody else is going through. Yeah. And you don't need to be the reason that something else gets worse. Oh, totally. You don't want to trigger them in some sense. Yes.

It is very easy to be kind to people. And it's very also easy to get lost in like the hustle, bustle of life and treat people differently because you're struggling or you're stressed or whatever. Yeah. So like as hard as that is, like being kind no matter what and how much you don't want to sometimes is like the most necessary thing for all of us to kind of relearn again right like we kind of lost side of that like stop getting stuck in what we are going through and just be like okay that's my life yeah

totally i'm not putting that on other people you know like i'm going to be kind and i help them and then like go back and somebody else is going to help me because that's how it works Paying it forward. But also sucks that knowing people out there and they think they have no one to go to or turn to or talk to. And I feel like you could find somebody in your life if you're feeling some sort of, if you're feeling one of these feelings or whatever, you got to find somebody to talk to. You can't just, you can't let it eat you up. And like I know sometimes parents are difficult to deal with. And they're always telling me what to do and they're giving me rules.

But I guarantee you one of your parents would listen to you if you came to them with your issue versus you plotting out a plan to do something terrible. Yeah. Well, and what's really cool now, you know, the more years that passed by mental health is becoming such a appropriate thing to talk about, right? Versus a stigma, yeah. Yes. Yeah. And it should be talked about. And so it's changing the way that that happens, which I think is so awesome.

Yeah. I just wish it was changing faster. Yes. And happening faster. Totally. It happens sooner. Yes. Yeah.

Because it's not, it isn't anything that we shouldn't be afraid to talk about. Yeah. It's life. Like that is just what everybody, everybody has something, right? Totally. It doesn't matter if they decide to deal with that or not. Yeah. But yeah. And chances are if you talk about it, someone you know is either dealt with it or can relate to it in some sort of way and give you their wisdom and knowledge of how they dealt with it.

And you can take their knowledge or at least know that, hey, I got it off my chest. And someone can relate with me. That's great. So now I can just move on from it. Yes. Or get through it faster. Agreed. Yeah.

Oh, man. I know we had to end on like a somber moment. And we should because today is a very important day. Oh, yeah. history and everything that happened. But I'm glad we got to talk about it. And I'm glad you shared your stuff that happened. Yeah.

Because it is kind of crazy to look back on and see all of this and kind of relive it. But I think it's important to talk about. That's how we remember things. Totally. And then through music, it's a great therapy. And Darrell, that's pretty cool to see that performance. Yeah. That was pretty cool.

This song, have you forgotten? And Alan Jackson, Jackson. Jaxon. adding a little h to his name. Alan Jackson's, where were you when the world stopped turning? Were two songs that I remember being on repeat in my family's house. Oh yeah.

And on the radio. As soon as they both came out. And what's funny, I would like to know who, I know who came out first. It was Darryl Wurley's song came out first, and Alan Jackson came out second. And I always wonder,

is Alan Jackson that was already planned or was it reactionary to Dary to Daryles? Well, hey, I talked about it in the skinny this week. It came to him in like a dream. Okay. The chorus of the song, He was like, I almost don't even, like, feel like I own the song because it came out to me so perfectly. Yeah. That it just, like, came to him that.

So obviously, it came after later, but it wasn't planned from the way that he tells that story. Okay. So I think it just was like something that was emotional and he must have, like, been thinking about things and directed up. Yeah. That's pretty cool. Yeah. Which is so crazy. But, yeah, those two songs were so very, like, very much a part of those few.

years after that. And then even I know everyone on the show hates Nickelback, but they had that one song that was pretty big around that era where they, I think they either created a song or they took one of their songs and they embedded a bunch of September 11th like audio into the song. Do you remember that? I vaguely remember this. It's a, I can look at it up really quick. Nickelback, 9-11 song. And don't say everybody because I don't hate nickelback. Okay, cool. All right. Hero. That song, it's actually from Spider-Man, but they took Hero and they embedded some like nine. I I remember when they first came out with it. And I remember, like, I wasn't there, and I had no personal connection.

But I remember hearing that first version, I think it was in my hometown. It was in Orlando in Excel 106, 7. They played it. And it was one of those things where just hearing the lyrics of, I'm so high, I can hear heaven. And a hero can save whatever. And a hero can save us and not going to stand it away. That was beautiful. But yes.

And it interweave, like, like, like 9-11 calls and like people screaming from the, like all that stuff, like woven into the song. I just remember hearing going like, wow, this is so powerful. So my whole point is just music is a great therapy for tragic events. Always. Because it makes you feel and it generates feelings, but it also brings awareness and all these great things. So those are the three songs for me that Alan Jackson, Darrell Worley, and then Nickelback's hero were like three really big, huge songs that helped us, I guess, in a sense, cope with the tragedy. And I know there's more I'm not thinking of, but those were like the three, like three very big ones at the time.

Oh, man. Well, I mean, now we're about to relive like him performing it in studio. And honestly, it was an emotional thing, right? You're looking back 20 years and he's performing the song. A lot has happened in those 20 years. But seriously, sit here and listen to this. He shares the story behind a song, how it came together for him, which is also inspiring. He shares, you know, what he's doing now that still is connected.

to that in a way. And it was just really cool. So listen now to Darrell Worley's interview and him performing. Have you forgotten? Number one. The Friday morning conversation with Daryl Worley. Darrell, how are you? Doing good.

How are you? Yeah, really glad that you came in. Well, man, thanks for having me. I want to play a few of Daryl's number ones real quick. This is from 2002, I miss my friend. I miss my friend. From 2003 here is, have you forgotten? Have you forget

And 2004 here is Awful Beautiful Life My little brother Had a big fight with his wife And our poor mother Set between them both all night I love this crazy tragic Sometimes almost magic

Awful beautiful life That's a jam I haven't heard that one in a while man I know I missed that one It still gets a lot of airplay It's a cool song Yeah

I think the last time I heard that was in like a Kroger or something. And I was like, I was like, sometimes you hear songs, because for me, 2004 I was in college, sometimes you hear songs that remind you of like a certain time. And that one for sure does. Awesome. You're actually here because tomorrow is the 20th anniversary of 9-11. And when I think about, and I just did a big special with Circle Network and the Opry

on the music of 9-11, which is going to air on Circle Network tomorrow for, it's a big two-hour special. I'm on that too. Yeah. No, I know. It's part of the reason that we wanted to get you in here. Oh, cool. Because we were talking about a lot of the songs and, you know, how it affected us in many different ways. And, you know, whenever you put out a song about 9-11, you know, it's really one of those songs that really reminds me of that time. Like, I can remember vividly whenever it happened.

You know, I went to college in Arkansas at a really small school called Henderson State University. And we all went to the studio union and it started like two people looking up at a screen in the corner. then it was four. And then before, you know, the next 20 or 30 minutes went by, it was 40 rows deep of people going, what in the world is happening? We had no idea what was happening. Sure.

And kind of as the events played out, it took music to kind of get us back to a somewhat normal place again. Right. Because for a long time, we didn't know if we could sing. We didn't know if we could laugh. Right.

You know, we didn't know a lot of stuff. But when we were talking about songs to talk about in this, you know, obviously you came up and, you know, have you forgotten, you know, was one of those songs for us. So talk about this. You go into a writing room. And did you have in mind to write a song about 9-11 specifically or did it just kind of come up a conversation? No, I had just returned from my first journey to Afghanistan to entertain our troops. And I told my manager on the way home that I was going to, that I just felt very compelled to do something to honor, you know, people like our first responders.

We lost a lot of guys that they were trying to save other people's lives. Obviously, we lost a lot of citizens. And then we lost a ton of our good military men and women in the war zone, you know, putting the heat on the terrorists. And so I just wanted to write a song that would honor all those people and their families. and, you know, for the loss. And so, yeah, we sat down with intentions of writing the song, but we didn't have intentions of, you know,

trying to get it on the radio or anything like that. I told Wynn, my co-writer, I said, this is something that we could definitely use to, you know, on my return journeys to the war zone, I can play it. You know, I can play it for when I do special things with police departments or fire departments, and it'll be a well-received thing. But I had a single on the radio that was doing very well,

and I had a brand-new album out, and so we weren't looking to disrupt all that. It was just a song we wanted to write. You know, the wild part about it is that it takes sometimes 20, 30, 40 weeks for a song to get to the top of the charts. But this song impacted so fast. First of all, it was number one for seven weeks, but it only took five weeks to get there.

Right. Like people, it just shook people because of the, message and how you sing it. And so we wanted to bring in today with tomorrow being that anniversary of 9-11 and just ask if you'd mind playing, have you forgotten for us? Not at all. You still play this one a lot? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're, this year's been unusual because coming out of COVID, you know, we didn't expect things to just explode, but it's almost like we have re-released

the song. And because of the 20th anniversary, it's just been wide open. So I'm not complaining in any way. Here is Darrell Worley with Have You Forgotten. People say, we don't need this war. I say there's some things we're fighting for. What about our freedom? This piece of ground We didn't get to keep them. They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in.

Before you start you preaching, let me ask you this, my friend. Have you forgot about that day to see your homeland under fire? Had our people blown away? Have you forgot when those towers fell? We had neighbors still inside going through a living hill. and you say we shouldn't worry about Benelot. You've forgotten. Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten? Darrell Worley. Great job. Thank you. Your latest album, too. I want to talk about this because, you know, you're about making a difference. And so 22, will you talk about the importance of that record? Well, you know, I'll be honest with you, Bobby.

It blows my mind. Every day I talk to someone, because we're kind of in that mindset right now, that doesn't know that we have 22 service members, men or women, taking their own life every day in this nation. And, you know, because of what they've been through, because of their PTSD, because of whatever situation it is, that to me doesn't matter. we as a nation should be taking care of those people. And so our government doesn't seem to be really, really active in that.

So Charlie Daniels pulled me aside about a month or two before he passed away, and he said, son, this stuff's going to be up to us. It's going to have to come from, you know, a different place, maybe the private sector or whatever. But we need to get busy at this work because these people are suffering and they've given more to this nation and more to its people. than anybody that I can think of. So, you know, what do we owe them?

Well, we owe them whatever we can do to help them. And so 22 is that. 22 is the title cut. We have a song out off of that right now called Send Me. And our plan is to kind of release everything from the project between now and Veterans Day. And just to make people aware of it. And hopefully we can, you know, get some streams and downloads

and sell some of that product. and we're going to give proceeds to some different charitable organizations that will make a difference in that area. You can also order some of Daryl's 9-11, have you forgotten Leatherwood Whiskey coming out that's raising money for military charities? Darrell Worley.com. I've never had a drink of alcohol. What's the difference between bourbon and whiskey and taste?

Well, bourbon is a whiskey, or some people would say that's not true. So let's talk about the difference between bourbon and rye. They're made from different things. but and the bourbon is a little more, it's just a little smoother. Rye whiskey has a little bit more of an edge too. So if I were going to have a first drink, I'd probably go bourbon before whiskey because it's smoother.
