Bobby bombs, everybody. Transmitting the Bobby bomb. Welcome to Thursday's show and good morning, studio! Morning! I'd just like to shoot up a flare into the sky.

See it? Yeah, you need help? That flare is saying that I'm going to dominate tomorrow whenever we give gift to the person we drew. Of course you are. Of course you are. We're not going to argue with you because you have the best gift giving and you drew Mike D so you want to spoil him rotten for doing such a great job and we're all left down the cold. I got Mike D so we know it ain't going to be that great.

You guys. Wait, you got Mike D buying you a gift? Yes. I think Mike D is probably pretty creative and thoughtful. Yeah, I agree. Okay. Man, what a misery it would be to have drawn lunchbox. Yeah, he's never happy.

He's never happy. Mike D drew him, Mike D drawing him. Oh, sorry, my bad, my bad. I mean, but who do you have lunchbox? I have right. Oh, my goodness. Like, just to be associated with lunchbox in any sort of giving capacity, it's kind of a downer because last year, lunchbox purposely bought our producer a chicken he knew she would hate.

Like, and he told this. He goes, I knew she'd hate it, but I bought it for her for anyway. It was huge. No, the reason I did it was because she was like, after I drew her name, she said, you better get me something good and gave me kind of attitude. And I was like, but we all say that. You say that all the time. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

And she even sent me a follow up email. She said, just to follow up. I hope you know I really take this serious and I want you. And she was just kind of snarky about it. I don't know all that's true. It is true. I can pull a email. She really sent an email.

Yeah, she sent an email with a list. She went and she goes, these are the items I would like. Uh-uh. Yes. I wish I'd got that list. I would love to have a list. I'd just go buy something off of it and be done with it. That's true.

That's easy. But I was testing her and she failed the test. She acted like a little baby. Yeah, yeah. But that's my point. With lunchbox, you don't want to get a gift from him and you don't want to get him a gift. No, I bet we could go back every Christmas for the past 12 years and we could find some story where he was not grateful and had attitude or was rude. I'm glad you're backing me up, Amy.

Every year for 12 years, he's angry about what he gives and what he gets. He doesn't get enough appreciation for what he gives and he's never appreciative for what he gets. Okay, sorry Amy got me a puzzle one year, a puzzle. Like, come on. But how many times do you have you heard? A hot chocolate machine. Yeah, that makes five gallons at a time. You love hot chocolate.

It's a lot of hot coke. But guys, I mean, come on. This isn't like your main source of life and presents. Yeah, it's just fun thing. And lunchbox acts like it's his only present. And if it was, that's okay too. But it's not. That's why we started drawing names and we stopped doing the gifts giving competition.

It just always gets dirty. No, no, no. It doesn't. He does. Whoa, whoa. You just came on here bragging about how you're going to dominate tomorrow. But it's not dirty. I'm pumped. Exactly. It's a competition.

No matter what, you can say it's not, but we all want to win. It's not a competition. I'm just going to say, I did a great job. And hopefully my other gift, because it's a two-parter. Hopefully, the second parter gets in in time or I have to show a picture of it. I'm telling you. Oh, that's kind of lame. I've had to do pictures before, Bobby. I had to give you a picture once before.

No hate here. I ordered it. The day, yes, the day that I drew his name, I ordered it, and hopefully it's today. Okay, yeah. So like, okay, I want to go back to this giving. I gave Amy this beautiful picture of her and her husband like from their wedding day on a canvas and Bobby donated a goat in her name and she goes, oh, I like Bobby's better. How do you like that better? How do you like donating a goat over a nice picture of you and your husband? It was through. Hector international and I thought it was really thoughtful that Bobby wanted to give a family in need, an animal

in my honor. And I don't think it was a goat. I think it was an elephant or something really big and expensive. I think it was a camel. Yeah, I'm being camel. I was feeding a whole orphanage for Amy in Amy's name. Basically. Well, anyway, that's tomorrow. Got everybody's here. Merry Christmas.

Let the games begin today. Thursday show starts now. Bobby bones. Come on. Recognizing people, doing cool things. It's ICU. You know I love the doggies, right? Yes, you do.

Okay, so Caroline County Humane Society in Maryland found a pit bull. And they were like, man, this is a stray. We're going to take the dog in. and then as they took him in, they found a microchip in him. My dog's microchip, is yours? Yes. Or they take in, it's like a little, it seems like a little needle,

and they put the chip in their butt area. And so they learned the dog's name was Zimba, and they just tracked him back home, which is probably going to be a couple neighborhoods away. Except in Maryland, the dog was from Wichita, Kansas. What? The Humane Society said he was 1,300 miles away from home. Oh, he hitched a ride on something.

So, a guy named Zach, who is a volunteer, drove him all the way back to Wichita to the family. Wow. Oh, that's so nice. You drove him 1,300 miles back home to Wichita. Shout out Zach. Shout out Zach. And shout out that Humane Society.

Shout out Wichita. Shout out America. Dog chips. Shut out, yeah, like potato chips. All, everything. Right? Yeah, all the chips. Poker chips.

Y'all, I think of poker chips. That's a good one too. Hey, I see you to Zach, the guy in the Humane Society of poker chips everywhere, right? Yes. I see you. The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Stories. It's producer Raymond in California.

The good news is the firefighters are gaining ground. on the fires. Some communities are still at risk in Southern California because of the unpredictable wins. And on the news, the post office announced you have to mail your letters this week if you want to get them there by Christmas. And finally, in sports, Aaron Rogers is back this Sunday. He was out two months from an injury, but officials said he's going to play against the Carolina Panthers. So apparently lunchbox got rejected from volunteering. Yeah. Which, by the way, it doesn't cost anything to volunteer and they still

told him no. Yeah, there was this organization. They were having something at Walmart where you go with a kid and they have a meal for them and then they have a $150 gift card and they can buy anything they want, but they need an adult to, you know, go shopping with them. So I was like, I email, yeah, I'd love to do that. I'll be one of your volunteers. And I get an email back saying, oh, no, we don't need you.

My wife emails the next day and they're like, oh, we'd love to have you. Why do you think that is? I guess maybe because I sent it from my work email and maybe they saw who I was and they were like, we don't want this guy coming to our little thing. And so they rejected me. Like your negativity. Maybe they didn't want, you think that may have been it? That might have been it.

Or maybe they're not a fan of the show. And so they're like. Oh, it's the show. Oh, it's the show. Yeah. You guys shine a bad light on me on the show. Oh, no. And so they thought, oh, if this guy is really like he is, how they make him out to be, then.

Oh, that's what it is. We're making you out to be something. Yes. And so I got rejected, but the next day my wife got accepted. So she gets to go make some kids dream come true, and they get to go shopping and have a grand old time. That sounds awesome. Lunchbox is one to invest in Bitcoin, by the way. Has he come to you guys about this?

No. Oh, my goodness. Do you guys know what Bitcoin is? Yeah, I thought Ray was trying to get us to buy Bitcoin. No, no. It was something else. Ray was trying to get us to invest in Ethereum and whatever. And it's good.

Like, it's done well. Oh, great. So we missed out on it? I don't really say it's missing out. Like it's a stock. You just wait. It's not really a stock, but it goes up and down. Okay.

But Launchbox wants to buy Bitcoin. All I've read on the internet is all these news articles after news article, all of them are like Bitcoin reaches $100,000. I don't even know what Bitcoin is, but it's some online payment money thing that doesn't have no... It's a currency. It's an online currency. And it's... I read the owner of the Warriors, the basketball team said it's probably going to give

to a million dollars a share. Yeah, I don't know about that because nobody knows about that. But the Winkle boss twins spend $11 million on Bitcoin and they're billionaires from it now. They're the guys that started Facebook with Mark Zuckerberg. I remember sued him. The twins, yeah, from Harvard. Yeah. Yeah.

So they're now billionaires from it. But people expect that it's going to burst. I'm not buying Bitcoin. But there was a 15-year-old. I saw that his dad gave him some money for his 15th birthday and he put it in Bitcoin. He's a multi-millionaire now. And if you don't sell it. it now, you may lose it all.

Or you can make a bunch of more. That's why I don't do the stocks. Oh, my goodness. I let my money sit in the bank and just relax. Just chill. I don't need it feeling anxious. Like, am I going to go down? I'm going to go up.

You just sit there and relax. We'll check back in later and see if you're still there. And it always is. Yeah, well, Bitcoin seems to be doing great. Please buy some Bitcoin. And please update us on stocks. And you don't need us to get in with you. It's not something where you get in together.

You can buy. This isn't an investment. investment. I just googled how much to buy a Bitcoin. Well, whatever it's value. A whole one's probably a thousand bucks right now. What? Around that. Oh, man. It's a lot more than that. Is it more of a thousand bucks now? One Bitcoin

costs $17,000. What? Wow. So I'm going to need your help. No, I'm out. No, but you can buy little pieces of Bitcoin, right? Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, you can, yeah, Ray, see Ray knows. Ray, have you already bought some? I have, and I can't afford that. He buys ETHier-E-Rom. The little

brother of Bitcoin. Yeah, you guys should have listened to me on ethereum. Yeah, we should... We're going on to say it. Oh, man, you know. Wow. I just... It's just funny if anybody's...

If anybody that knows anything remotely about the stock market that is listening to us right now. All trying to act like they know what they're talking about. Man, guys, and we would have bought it when it came out. It was only $230 for a Bitcoin. Now it's $17,000. Do you know who they think secretly started it is Elon Musk?

Secretly? They don't know who started Bitcoin. They have no idea. There's a lot of theories, but no they don't. Anyway, who cares? We're not doing this with you, lunchbox. Go do it yourself. For once in your life, just go do something.

I don't have $17,000. It doesn't take that. You can buy a piece of it. Go, go get rich, lunch. I'm done. Lunch, go get rich. We'll see you after the new year with your Ferrari, okay? Now time for the positivity.

A little segment we call, Tell Me Something Good. Let's go. Tell me something good. Amy, tell me something good. There's a dude that is 100,000. years old and he is throwing parties for the less fortunate left and right. He's been doing it since he was like 67 years old. And again, he's 100 and he's still throwing parties. He does it for 450 people, maybe even more, that are in need. And he feeds on them. They have a great time.

He backs the parties with his own money. Wait, how old is he? He's 100. And he backs that thing up? Is that what you said? Oh, he backs that thing up. Financially, he gets a lot. Dang your old man, won't you back the thing up? You're a real old man, won't you back that thing up. But normally at 100, you're probably receiving help from other people, but he has continued his giving, and he's not letting his age slow him down. There you go.

Lunchbox, tell me something good. Kevin Shanahan is a dentist, and he was like, man, I want to give back to the community. What can I do? So every Friday night, he sets up in front of the post office, and for homeless people, they can come and get free dental work. And then there's other people that set up and give free haircuts, and someone cooks him a free hot meal, so he pulls out his drills and fixes their tea.

He's like, Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z. Does the cleaning? Awesome. Way to go, Kevin. That's cool. And that's one of those two where you go up and you may slide up and be like, hey, I can get a quick check-up? Like, if he has some open time.

Right, right, right. If there's no one sitting in the chair, you know, there's no one sitting in a chair, and I'm up dropping off an envelope. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I'm just dropping off a package. And I'm like, hey, they'll check out real quick. Maybe it's on, you know, a 50?

So he can help out other people? No, it's free. Yeah, yeah. All right, I got one for you. There's a man of Pennsylvania, and he offered up his late mom's home, which he was having to clean out, and he was going to have to sell.

After another family's house had just burned down, he's a firefighter. And he got the call. They went tons of damage. He's a 10-year veteran of the firefighter, fire department, and they put it out, and they were like,

the house is done. You know it. And so, again, his mom just passed away, and he had a house that was pretty close to them, and he just gave it over to the guy. Wow. Oh. And he's like, why don't you take the house?

He said, I, for me, he said, I want to help someone in, like, my mom's honor. Mm-hmm. And so he did, he gave him the house. Oh, that's amazing. This is a Bobby Bones show. Bobby Bones.

Lost a lot of celebrities in 2017. Which one was the most shocking to you? I can read you some of them here. Tom Petty, Hugh Hefner, Glenn Campbell, Chuck Berry, Chester Bennington, Chris Cornell, Charlie Murphy, Bill Paxton, Adam West. Mary Tyler Moore died? I didn't know that.

You did? Somebody better Google that. I'm on it. Ralphie May. Hey, Lunchbox, you watched that show at Big Black, right? Yeah, Robin Big. That was pretty sad. Mary Tyler Moore died earlier this year, January.

Wow. Wow. I don't even remember that. I guess Tom Petty was pretty shocking, but he was older. Chester Bennington, the lead singer of Lincoln Park. Shocking. Super shocking. Chris Cornell shocking.

Troy Gentry on a country level was by far the most because he wasn't old. There wasn't anything that was hey, he's sick. It was a helicopter crash. Yeah. So the Troy Gentry one, probably in our

world, is the most shocking. but I would probably in other people's world that don't know country say that the Chester Bennington from Lincoln Park what came out of nowhere. Would you guys agree? Yeah. Tom Petty probably a close second, even though he was older. And because he was like a big part of American fabric. And you just didn't want to see it happen.

And I guess Hugh Hefner's not shocking because he was old. Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. We were shocked. He was still rolling. Yeah. of people though, huh? By the way, Jake Owen has a new podcast up. Good Company episode number two is up. It's a new podcast. It's about 30 minutes long. He talks with his grandparents who are 95 years old.

They've been married for 70 years. Oh, wow. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. Yeah, so it's called the Good Company podcast. You can actually go over to, and a bunch of ways you can listen to it. But even over at Nashville Podcast Network, you can see the episode up there. comes to us from Salem, New Hampshire. Two months ago, Ms. Rodriguez won $1 million on a scratch-off. A couple days ago, she got busted steel on $80 worth of lipstick from the department store. Did she lose all her money already? Nope. She just said she wanted to save her money.

So she couldn't buy lipstick. She had a million dollars. Oh, my goodness. I'm lunchbox. That's your bonnet story of the day. That makes me feel sad. I don't know why. I feel sad. Bobby Bones, everybody Transmitting across America This is a Bobby Bones show

They have things you can see your most retweeted tweets of the year My most retweeted tweets is thousands of them Was February 5th during this Super Bowl halftime show I said thank you Gagga for not making it political Signed America That was my most retweeted That sounds like an easy one to come up with Yeah, and people say that about body like a backroad too.

Got good point. And they're like, oh, anybody could have written Body Like a Backroad. Well, then write it then, SmartElek. Dang, okay, got me, got me, okay. Thank you very much. I like to think this show is a political free zone. And very rarely do we mention unless it's super in the news, like pop culturey. We try to stay off of it.

So I like people to be able to think they can come here and not have to worry about people fighting about politics. Yeah, my goodness. Somewhere to take a break. It's like you turn on the TV. There it is. You look in the toilet. There it is. It's all everywhere.

It's politics. Everywhere. Miss Universe was the most tweeted hour of the entire year. Yeah, a thousand bad ones. Yeah. Yeah, Steve Harvey. Oh. The ending to the Super Bowl was the most tweeted moment.

That would be the pets and falcons, whenever the Patriots came back in one. Yeah. Yeah, duh. Pretty big comeback. Wow. It's weird because Super Bowl's falling in the different. years in the season. That's why I say that Amy before you get all dut-e. I'm joking. I don't remember at all. You made me feel, Amy, you made me feel lesser of a person when you did that just so you know.

Okay, well, Bobby, I'm so sorry. I was joking, totally. I just remember Tom Brady winning. That's it. Game of Thrones had the most tweets as far as TV shows go. Stranger Things was the most tweeted for streaming TV. And then Wonder Woman was the top tweet of movie. I've seen all that. Man, I'm pretty up on this. The thing I don't see is that that boy band, BTS. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. South Korean. K-pop. Yeah, the K-pop band. They were the most tweeted celebrity, because, again, international. But they even be like Justin Bieber and stuff. But, man, I hear their song on the pop station. I don't know what they're saying. I'm just like, how do I sing along? I like to sing along. I don't know how to sing along. So today also, Taylor Swift is 28 today? Is that right?

Wow. No, yesterday. How about it was yesterday? Yeah? How old is you now? I don't know. 28? Wow. Today's the 14th. Seems like she's done so much in her life. Yeah. I forgot to mention that yesterday. Taylor Swift had a birthday yesterday. She walked away from her first record at 14 because they wanted her to wait until she was 18 to release an album.

Wow. Idiots. Look at her now. Blake lively and Ryan Reynolds' daughter is credited on the album reputation as baby intro voice at the start of our song Gorgeous which is about her model boyfriend Ooh Hear that Eddie model

According to Forbes Taylor Swift whose birthday was yesterday has a net worth of $280 million Holy cow She has a frame photograph of Kanye West and a big incident hanging in her Nashville home with the caption Life is full of

interruptions. That put her on the map map though across mainstream. Like that is what did it for her mainstream wise. Because we knew Taylor, country new Taylor, pop kind of new Taylor, but everybody knew Taylor when Kanye was idiot. And if I'm her, I'm like, man, I'm glad Kanye did that. That was a crazy. That was a big deal. Like it made people take notice that weren't ever going to take notice. So yeah, I put that, I'll have changed that caption. I'd be like, that. I'll be like, Thank you, Kanye. Yes, thank you, Kanye West. So, yeah, that stuff's interesting to me.

Anything else I want to talk about? I mean, tomorrow's a big Christmas party. Everybody have all their guests for everybody? Yep. Now I'm ready to go. Yeah? Yeah. I'm sort of bummed we didn't get to have our show Christmas party,

but I feel like I ruined that because I didn't know what's going to be happening with my kids. We'll get an update on that later, though. Okay. We have an update later? Yeah, I've an update on that later, but no, sorry, no, Christmas party. Yeah, because you did. You did tell us like three months ago that we were going to have one, but that's okay.

That's all right. You have an adoption, so. I didn't want to plan on having you all over, and then we have to be like, peace out. We were ready to see that closet. And the garage. You never seen the closet? Never seen the closet, dude. I just see the Toshma garage when I drive by.

That's it. Oh, Amy's got the Santa closet rocking. Santa Clausus. Because all it does is give and give and give. You walk you in whatever you mean. You just say, I'd like this, and what do you know? You go into the Santa closet and go. You find it.

Wow. It's all in there? Yes. And then in the backyard, the Tajma Garage. Wow. That thing is one thing. It's a sight to be seen. Yeah, that's what I hear.

Like, I'm reading on all, like, the websites that, you know, if you ever go into Nashville, go check out these places, you know, go check out. This is pretty the best biscuits. Go here for the best garage. You go to Amy's house, Tajma Garage. Okay, guys. Did y'all, like, take the Golden Hate Bridge to work today? Okay.

Guys, wasn't it the Santa Clausin. That was so good. Because it keeps giving and giving and giving. So good. It's just like, here's a treat for you. Here's another present. Dang, Santa Clauset?

Sounds like she took the Golden Hate Bridge. Okay, it actually was pretty funny. Santa Clause. I guess it. It is pretty funny. But it's not true. I know. I know except it is.

The top five shows that people devoured on Netflix, meaning shows they watch for more than two hours per day, number one's American Vandal, which is a good one. It's so stupid, but it's so funny. And I felt like I watched that by accident, and then I was like, don't watch this show. That was a good sign.

It was, yeah, it was funny. Now everybody's seen it, so it's not that cool, but it's, Amy, you hate it. Okay. You should watch one episode, Amy. I'd like to hear what you have to say. Yeah, but you should give it a shot. Oh, my gosh. The top five shows that people savored, meaning they would just like watch one episode because

they loved it so much, wanted to spread it out. Number one was The Crown. Yes. Amy loves that show. So good. And then they listed the top shows that God is cheating, meaning people watched them ahead of their significant others and didn't tell them. Narcos was one.

13 reasons why it was two and stranger things was three. Wow. Crazy, huh? Yeah. The three good ones. That's why I got him single. I got to hide my stuff. You don't got to be cheating.

She doesn't want to get in the middle of any sort of controversy early. No drama. I can, I can. And you've been doing a good job too because if I don't notice, then you're doing a fantastic job. That's a weird place to be. But if I'm ever not like, hey, this caller couldn't hear me or this caller's radio was up. Yeah. Like if I'm just rolling, that means she's killing it.

So you're doing a good job. Well, thank you. I don't say that enough, but you are doing a good job. But she has a tell me something good from a caller that she wanted to share.

Oh, no, hold on. I got a good voice. We made me the worst sounding show, just sonically, that exists. Because none of us are, and then Eddie sounds like that. I had to bring me into this. Like, I think Hillary, you may have the best radio voice of the show. Wow. Yeah.

Thank you. Welcome. Do you, um. Well, it's fitting, too, that she gets to greet all of our listeners when they call. Nice, Amy. Like, uh. Because she's the best sounding. And pretty much, Amy's like, keep her on the phones.

Oh. That is not what I did. She didn't like that. She didn't like that little. Is it getting too much, Amy, a little too real? You don't call you on there. That's not what I did. Okay, okay.

Why are you all doing that? We found the controversy. Here's my thing. If you dig hard enough, you find the controversy. Oh my gosh. Hey, Eddie, let Hillary have your headphones for a second. Hey, Hillary, I'm going to play. Yeah, take a seat.

Hey, during that. Hillary, I'm going to play a song. Whatever I'm so comfortable that I would have. It's not a big deal. Okay. I did. I thought that. Oh, boy.

How did you, your day's good today so far? Yeah, it's going well so far. Yeah. So I'm going to play Blake Shelton. I'll name the dogs. I'm going to play the whole song. Okay. Let me see what the old intro time is here.

I don't know, like eight or nine seconds. But like do a little record radio talk up you would do for Blake Shelton on Named the Dogs. Could you do that? Just say, hey, it's Hillary from the Bobbi Bone Show. Blake Shelton, he's having great Christmas. I don't know. Just say some stuff. Okay.

Can you do that? Sure. All right, here we go. Here's Hillary, our phone screener. Wait, how many seconds? Did you say what intro was? Let me see. It is 12.

Okay. 12 seconds. All right, you ready? Yeah. All right, here we go. Hey, it's Hillary from the Bobby Bone Show. And here is People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive of 2017. Blake Shelton with his latest, I'll name the dogs.

They're pretty good, guys. Yeah, she's pretty good. Yeah, she even, like, went to the Skinny. People Magazine. She did the Skinny, too, that quick. Yeah. Like, Amy's Skinny take like eight minutes. Does Hillary know a corny?

Do you like, oh, do you have a joke for us, Hillary? Okay, guys. America's Miss Amy. I'm sure she was. He has a good joke. Oh, okay. Two? The morning, corny.

Oh, I did see this one. Where does a dog go to get a new tail? Where does a dog go to get a new tail? A retail store. Hillary. Hillary! You want to uncorn? No.

He never laughed in my jokes. She was locked and loaded with the morning. She was like, oh, I got one, no problem. Dang. That's the only joke I have, though. Wow. Dang. Wow.

No, that's crazy. Well, she comes up to tell me something good. She goes up a song. She nails a morning corny. Dang. What do you have a new Hillary's pile over there? Oh. Amy, we're just giving you a hard time.

It's fine. I like Hillary. Better not leave. We get along really well. Not anymore. There you go. Oh, okay. Should I filter it?

No. No, no, no. There you go. All right. Hillary, thank you. Thank you. Good job. You ever watch that show?

Rap Battle. Is that what it called? No, drop the mic. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So the commercial comes on TV, I've never actually seen the show. I just watched the commercial, and I'll go watch clips online,

where they don't, they ride them for the people. Oh. Oh, yeah. That's not off the dome? No. What? They have comedy writers. No, no, no.

Well, Jake Owen did it against Wayne Brady. That's what that was? Yeah. Okay, I just saw a headline and I thought I didn't know what Jake was doing. Wayne does it all. Such talent is rare. He can do absolutely anything except keep his hair. Or a door on air.

You're a walking toolbox. You make white folks more comfortable than a pair of Birkenstocks. You rap sweet. I'm about to eat you for lunch. Your ratings killer, the weakest to the Brady bunch. Your dance, you can sing. You can play any part. He did okay.

It's all right. So he's not making that up on the fly? They have comedy writers for that stuff. He may have sat in a room with them, but I know a couple of writers on that show. So, I mean, Kenny G. did one a few weeks ago. You think Kenny G's out there going, you know, just sitting there playing the sex. Maybe. No.

So, but, I mean, I bring it up because Jake was on it. And I was listening to some of Jake Owen's podcast, the good company podcast. What's up, what's up, guys? What are you saying? With his grandmas? Grandparents. Yeah. What's up, what's up, guys. It's Jake, and I am back with yet another good company podcast. Last episode, I chatted with my twin brother, J. Rod, Jared, and my best friend Marty.

And this week, it's Brian Yancey Owen, is my granddad, and my grandmother is Gene Martin. And I'm just really excited for you guys to hear the story of how they met because their story is truly, truly the American love story. They're married for like 7,500 years. 7,500. Yeah. Wow, it's a long time. So I'm sure that some of that good cooking that you make Nanny doesn't hurt either for keeping Granddad around, you know, all that. Probably keeps Grandad around pretty good, too.

That's right. Those are pleasant memories. I'm still enjoying some of them, too. Oh, my goodness. I hope you listen to it. It's on iTunes. It's on Iheart radio. It's called The Good Company Podcast with Jake Owen.

To this day, how I get letters from you, Nanny and Granddad. just telling me to keep my prayers up, and I've always felt like I think your fate kept church in our lives, and I just hope you know how much I appreciate that. So if you're looking for something to listen to, you can. I just like hearing him say nanny. You know, we always call and the things we call them when we were tiny. It never leaves us. Is he say nana or nanny?

I don't know. I don't either. I don't know. I just whatever it was. I liked it. I had Eddie's kids singing at the Christmas show, which actually I thought was some kind of TV show, dude, that's that good. Dude, they killed it.

I'm so happy for them. They like, I think I've seen him grow from like, okay, let's wrap this up to like, this sounds really good. Nine years old. Nine years old. And this is his class. So Eddie sent me this clip and I thought it was a joke at first because I thought it was some TV kids choir.

And I was like, okay, Eddie, but then they kind of get kind of bad. But then they got good again. But it's so, it's too good for like a local concert. Yeah, yeah. Once they added instruments, it got a little shaky. Yeah, yeah, here, here. Like, it's pretty good for a local school. So proud of them.

Can he sing by himself? Oh yeah, he's good. Really? He has a really good voice. And he got in the car and he was like, man, I messed up, Dad. I was like, what do you mean? I messed up one of the words.

I'm like, no one notices that. Don't worry about that. He was so upset at himself. He was like totally messed up. That's pretty funny. Yeah. That's good, though. Thanks, man.

Like, I feel like they're a little bell happy, but they're nine. Right. Yes. That's also why we don't give lunchbox sound effect toys or anything? Because he'll also get happy. You didn't have that rhythm. Well.

Well, there's a lot of bells. That's good. Does your four-year-old have any sort of performance you have to go to? Yeah, his is coming up. I think early next week. What's his job enroll? Who knows what they're. He says he's been practicing for like two weeks now, so I don't know what to expect.

But to do what? Singing. His songs. Oh, so he has songs. You don't know what his songs are? I don't know what his songs are, no. They practice he's at school. You don't hear him practice at home?

No, he doesn't practice at home. I think they do that all day, really, because I pick him up and say, what did you guys do at school? was like practice for the concert. And you don't ask them what's your song? No. What do you talk about? Guys, I'm like a ticket holder. I'm just buying my ticket.

I'm going to show up and I wouldn't be surprised by it. You're actually paying for the ticket? No, no, no. It's free. No, but I'm saying you don't say, hey, what's your song? I don't hear you sing it. No, is that bad? That's weird to me that you don't care that much.

You would sing in the car with him because you're a musician. And you would practice with him. No, I want him to do this on his own and then I show up. You're not going to watch you too, Eddie. You're what's your four-year-old. Listen to Junior, though. Hey, that's almost like you too stylish. Yeah, but you didn't know what he was thinking either?

I had no idea. Man, you really just check out, don't you? Like, you just go home. So involved. You go home, you get in your white tides. You're laying your underwear, you eat your TV dinner, and you go to bed and come do this. You're not that far off. Oh, my gosh.

Are you still? Our producer ready has got two kids. I've been married for 12 years. Are you still doing the dishes? Yes, I did them last night. But are you doing it every night? Every night, man, I'm doing the dishes. I'm still on it.

I'm about two weeks in. Are y'all like using paper plates now? I did buy paper plates just in case, but we haven't used them yet. Oh, I can't believe you don't know what songs your kids are singing in their Christmas. They sing like 10 songs. Okay. Okay, fine. Do you want me to come in here and be like, yeah, dude, doing jingle bells?

They're doing silver bells. My four-year-old's doing Daddy look a lot like Santa, and I thought it was pretty fun. Baby, it's cold outside. Oh, Eddie. Amy's 30-second skinny comes up. What do you have over there, Amy? Well, something cool that Kelsey Ballerini did at her wedding with her husband

And everybody else did it too And I'll tell you why they did it I'm irritated I didn't get invited that wedding by the way Well yeah there was like over 100 people there I know also did this Over 100 Well and it was the destination wedding And I probably wouldn't have went

But I'm irritated I mean a little bit I'm irritated I didn't get invited Like I know Kelsey is longer And most of the people And they ever knew her Yeah, it's true Do you know who was invited?

I don't know Yeah I know people that went No he means people in her life Like Bobby's known her for a long time And I know 100% irritated. I'm like... What percentage?

42. Just that much irritated? But don't you think a little bit of it could be if inviting you could open up a can of worms of inviting? It doesn't matter what worms you open up. And I'm not even 50% so I know I'm not right. Yeah. If I was 51% I would be right.

I'm just telling you in my heart I'm 40% irritated. I didn't get invited to the wedding. Fair enough. I know Kelsey before she even had a record deal. I know. But I'm not right. I'm wrong for being irritated. That's why it's not 50%.

so I kind of don't care what you're gonna tell us except we already recorded not the one we're about to do we send one out for the national like they run out all day so you know what they're yeah because Amy told me

yeah I already know we'll come back we'll talk about that in a second Lobby bones we have a lot of radio stations in our building and so a lot of different formats of artists come by

and sometimes you find out that people are fans of weird artists like Ray apparently loves Fallout Boy yes I hadn't well They were up here on the pop station, and I heard Ray was just freaking out about it.

I wanted to get pictures with him. Every time I saw him in the hallway, I was like, Fall Out Boy! And I don't even know all the people in the group. You know two of them, right? The main dude. Well, Pete Wentz is like the face, but he's like the bass player. He's not even the real. But then their singer, Patrick Stone.

Yeah. I mean, I know a little about him, too. Just a little bit. Did you see them? Yeah. And I guess, you know, their drummer was there too. So at times I was like, fallout boy! And then it was just maybe even one of the reps or something like that.

Why would you not just go up and say, hey, I'm a huge fan. Would you mind if I get a picture? They're busy. No, they're not really. They're not. I don't think Pop Station likes us snagging people that come in for them. They snag our people all the time. Who is the one that I got so upset about and I canceled the whole thing?

Shearing. Yeah. Oh, Ed Shearin. Oh, yeah. Who had been on our show before. And he was coming in and the Pop Station through an absolute fit. Ed didn't want to go on the Pop Station. Ed wanted to come here and be interviewed.

And the Pop Station was like, I'm going to cry at my... We're like, so I canceled the whole thing. Yes. Ray, you want to take a picture of somebody? It goes, in general. Just say, hey, I'm a huge fan. Would you?

Am I taking a picture? Yeah, and they actually went out the back alley and I was almost going down the stairs. I was like, asked a salesperson, where'd they go? Which way did they go? And they just got rushed into a van and they're gone. They're not that famous, though, to be rushing. They are, millions of followers.

They had a security guy. He had this place on lock. They had people out from waiting for him. Really? Yeah, the security guy had a little earpiece in. I was trying to talk to him. He had to remove his earpiece so he could hear me. Oh.

Sure, he just wasn't listening to like I-R-Radio or something. She says she's no good with words, but on each. Did you get it? He's not sure. Did you get anything signed from him or anything? Well, so what I did is I had my throat spray. They said, does anybody have any cough drops or throat spray? And I said, yes, I have throat spray.

So I ran it to them, got it. And I said, there's only one condition. Please autograph it. So one of the promotions people from here came, brought it back to me and said, I got it autographed and I have it on my desk in there. Fallout boy, baby. Which one of them signed it? it might have been

it's like whatever the main person is it says F-O-B that's a fallout boy It's not an autograph It's in Sharpie He said he got autographed The salesperson

It just wrote That's not an autograph An autograph would have been Patrick Stump Pete Wentz Random drummer You know I mean that's what I'm saying

though They're known as Fallout Boy So maybe that's how they autograph Okay so if you got a guitar Right And it's like Hey we're gonna get you guitar From again

YouTube Let's use you two as an example and the guitar just had you too on it would you count that as an autograph from the band that's how they probably autograph as a group okay we don't have all five of us to sign this little bottle real quick let's just sign

a group signature you have to yell at me I'm just asking you a question I'm just explaining it well I am sort of curious you think you two ever just signs anything no you two like no no no band I've ever met in the history of band signing thing just writes the band's name and why would you want them to sign that you want Bono Like, you want the artist.

If it was like the edge, you would write The Edge, maybe you two. Or Bono, and they'd write you two and they'd sign around it or something. Okay. I'm just trying to have a little bit of hope for Ray, but. Is that a nerd, dude? I got it in there, baby. F-O-B! Yeah, we know.

Fall Out Boy, yeah. All right, thank you, Raymond. He's such a big fan. I wonder why they were here. Are they playing in town or something? Right now? I have no idea. No one.

Who knows, right? No clue. I don't know where they are. What? The latest from Nashville and Hollywood. Amy's 30 Second Skinny. Kelsey Ballerini and Morgan Evans sealed their wedding vows with a shot of tequila. They did this because of a special moment they shared after they met.

They hosted an award show in Australia. And at the after party, Kelsey said he was like, hey, let's take this shot together. And she remembers taking the shot with them and then being like, whoa, he's super hot. Later that night, he leaned over, asked if he could. kiss me like a proper gentleman and she said yes. You ask? I was always told don't ask. I bet in his Australian accident sounded pretty awesome.

You know he's always lived here though. Not always, but he's been here. Even when they were doing that, he was living here. Okay. So still talks like Australia. No, no, no, I know. But a lot of people think he moved over here. He didn't move over here.

Yeah. They were over there when they met. That's true for doing that award show. Yeah. I'm better. So at their wedding, they took a shot. and then they did it with all the guests that were there as well, like 100. Yeah, and they didn't include me, by the way.

Just letting everybody know. Good, good. If I ever get married, not coming. I don't care if it's a thousand people. Kelsey blackballed. You're going to be at the door like, can I get in? Nope. Oh, Tommy, stop.

Yeah, what else you got? Okay, so Google released its most search terms of the year. Some of the categories include most search person, Matt Lauer. Oh, what? Already? That just happened. That was a lot of searching really quickly. just fire him with their fingers.

Maybe some people are like, who? No, not who. I don't know. Why are they Googling him? What do you mean? Why are they? No, I don't. Why? I guess they just want the details. I was picturing people were trying to figure out exactly like who he is. No, no, no. They knew who he was. Megan Markle is the number one actor, obviously because she's the future royal.

And Floyd Mayweather was the top athlete. Yeah, the Megamarkle thing is interesting because it's the first, like, fiance say to get to go to Christmas dinner, like not married. Oh, wow. There's so many things. It's a big deal. Yeah, apparently. You're into it. But that's, well, I'm into it because she's an American.

And I'll watch American ping pong and root for the Americans, right? I like it to win for trading their little system. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love that Bobby's into this now. No, no, no, I'm not into the romance. I kind of am. Yeah, you are. But I just think that, I'm, one, I don't like that system.

Like, the taxpayers pay for all of that. I was talking to one of my friends who's British. And I was like, way, think about this? Because they don't really have any power. It's just for fun. As people would say, it's just for spits and giggle. They do advise.

Okay. Right? Then they take their opinion into account? Yeah, I said, cool, got it. Thank you. Sure. Appreciate that. Thanks for your input. And he was like, well, it brings so much in tourism. Like, so many people care about it and it makes us kind of a thing. That's what makes England. So they're not upset with it.

But yeah, we have celebrities, but you kind of have to do something to be a celebrity. You're not really born into it. And if you are born into it, it's because somebody above you did something. Yeah. There, you're just, you're born. Here you go. What else? Oh, that's it. Maybe that's your 30 second skinny. I like it, though, that she's American. I like

it that she's been divorced. I like it that she's multiple races. Like, it's just everything that they're not. And everything that we are as a country. Like, we just have that's just a normal American. I mean, she's super hot. Don't get me wrong. Let's not forget that.

But what do you expect? He's a prince, you know? Do a prince. What about her ex, though? That's crazy if your ex-wife's going to marry a prince. It's like, boom. Got him. You got to be like, oh, man.

I messed up, boys. Or I guess you always get to be the guy that used to be married to the girl that's now married to a prince. I bet they pay him some good money to keep his mouth shut. Oh, yeah? Forever. Oh, yeah, I bet they do now. Because he knows lots of stuff. They're married.

The people of England? It doesn't have to be bad stuff, but it's, hey, don't go sell your stories. Wow. Because it could very easily. I bet they give him a nice little royal sash to wear around the house. Bobby Bones, everybody. Transmitting across America. This is a Bobby Bonds.

That's 7.15. We'll get an update on Amy's Kids. Well, I guess wherever you are. Maybe it's 8.15 Eastern. In 15 minutes, we'll get an update on Amy's Kids. So 15 minutes from now. what's happening with that? Because I don't know the latest. All I know is, I remember the day when you had FaceTime and you would answer.

Man, that was a fun. What? I tried to FaceTime me yesterday. Not an answer, not a call back. Nothing. Back in the good old days? It'd be like, oh, I guess it missed your call. Oh, you mean the good old days like a few days before that?

Yeah, that was fun times. I think I was at yoga. Yeah. Then you just... I don't know why I didn't call you back. That's weird. Mm-hmm. Oh.

Oh, but I don't know. Sounds like something you. do too. Yeah, yeah, but I'm known for that. That's my thing. That's true. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, sorry.

I did totally see that you FaceTime because, yeah. Whoops. Whoops. Another thing is, I'll make a friend. Oh, boy. Or a female friend. And then Amy swoops and just takes them. Oh, yeah.

Or I'll. You mean a friend or you've dated them? Both. Or in the past, I've dated people. And Amy becomes a great friend with them, and then I don't date them anymore. And she's still. And that's okay because they're, but I'm going. What happened?

This all song and dance of music coming in, now Amy's like friends with the Arkansas head coach's wife. Oh, yeah. Swoombed in. Swoom did. They were friends first, Amy. So, right.

He beat me by like 24 hours. But you wouldn't even known her. And so, like, I'm a diehard Razorback fan. And she listens to the show. She's a big fan. And now Amy's over there, like, instant tweet, like secretly tweeting. Yeah, I'm like, woo pig.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So Amy's got, he's talking to the head coach's wife. And now it's another one. I know. I was like, how about those seats Bobby gave you all for the show? She's like, yeah.

They're pretty bad. That's not true. Is it true? No. No, Amy, he's so self-conscious about that. Someone texts me because I gave the coach and his family seats, but I don't want to put them too close to the front because I said, hey, you should have leave after about 20 or 30 minutes because we're playing all night long.

And they've been going all day. I was like, just so I didn't put them too close. the front. Yeah, like part of their schedule was hang time with Bobby or whatever. That's what I said on the news. It's so funny. He's like press conference here, meeting here, sports, something here. Time with Bobby Bones. That was

pretty funny. I laughed at Lowe. I did do. And I put it up because it was so ridiculous. But people on Instagram were like, nice humble brag. I put it up because it was so ridiculous. Oh my gosh, it's funny. I don't even think that's a humble brag. I didn't either. It's funny. Time with Bobby Bones.

And I would tell you, if I thought It was a humble brag. Yeah. Yeah. I would. I saw you post a picture from the paper of me and you. Yeah.

Humble brag. Amy was like, my dad is so proud as the picture was. He was. He like saved the paper for me. And I was like, Dad, you know that article's not about me. I don't know how my picture.

But it was all you. What? No. No, I mean, she interviewed me, but it was all about you. I don't know why that picture was chosen. I guess this is the most recent one of,

like us. They must have typed into Google. Bobby and Amy. Amy posted it on her. her Instagram and a listener was like, your smile does not look good. Your soft smile looks painful. And Amy got so butt hurt. Oh, no.

She sent me a note. Like, what do I say back? I'm like, nothing. I did reply. I said, what does that mean? It means nothing. Well, I haven't heard back. I'll let you know.

You can't get upset at all the comments. And what we do is we focus on the negative. There may be 80. I know. And I don't always like go read comments, but I happen to see that one. And I was like, my soft smile is painful. Like, painful to look at. looks painful to smile.

Like, what do you mean? Let me see if they replied back to my question. You're getting too wrapped up. Yeah, I don't know what a soft smile is. I mean neither. It's when you don't smile hard. It's like, when you just kind of smell like this a little bit. Which I do sometimes and people are like, why don't, why don't, when you smile, why don't

you share your teeth? I'm like, sometimes I do. So, I'm like, can we just post a picture and you not, like, if you don't have anything nice to say, like, why even say anything? We're trying to clamp down on this like word. Oh, did I just say it a lot? Oh, man. And like I'm doing it too.

I just listen like I'm doing it too. Because I'm around her all the time. No, no, yes. It's rubbing off. Okay. And so I sent her a note. I said, hey, we have to stop saying like. Because she's saying it all the time.

And I, Osmosis, I get it. So how do you stop that? That's a tough word. Like I haven't said a curse word in two years. Yes. And I used to curse. Amazing too, by the way.

But it's a discipline. So my new discipline is going to be to eliminate that word. It's going to take a while. But is this like a starve yourself every time you say it kind of thing? So what happens? I do punish myself. I'm not playing that. I know you do.

I do punish myself. Like if I do something and it's not up to snuff, I'll punish myself. You're not eating dinner tonight. Well, I'll delay it. Okay. Or I'll have to work out extra. Or I'll, because I know what makes me tick. And so it's not for everyone.

Some people, a reward system is great. Yeah. For me, it's a punishment system to myself. And I was writing about this in my book. It's not about the punishment or the reward. It's about knowing who you are and how whenever you achieve or don't you react. Wow. And so mine is.

Punishment. Punishment. Yeah. I've been a bad boy. Yeah? How bad a boy have you been? Well, real bad. I'd have this comfortable with myself.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, like, no food bad. Well, I don't go full meal. But sometimes if I was really looking forward to some, like, some short rib. No short rib. You go pot roast. I'll cut it. out and I'll just go grilled chicken.

And I punish myself. Sometimes I have to go pick my own switch for myself. For yourself. I don't want to do this, Bobby. It's like, why do you make me do this to myself? And I'm like, well, sometimes you just, and it's tough. It's tough to be a parent of yourself. Oh my gosh.

What? I don't know. I'm just like. You sound totally normal right now. Very, very normal. Like, what is happening? That's how I'm able to deal with myself, though. No, that makes sense.

Some people can go buy themselves a new pair of shoes or me, I do the opposite. See all those belts hanging out there, Bobby? Go get one of them. Pick one. What in the world? So, I'm not going to say like the rest of the show. No, that's on you, though.

However, you want to punish yourself. No, I'm not going to punish yourself like that. No, I don't punish other people. Oh. Unless they want it. The morning corny. What did the hot dog say when he crossed the finish line? What did the hot dog say when he crossed the finish line?

I'm the weiner! That was the morning morning. Not bad. Not bad. That's my New Year's resolution, by the way. Eliminating like. Me too. Oh, yeah, you'll never work.

That'll never work for you. Amy and your husband tried to have kids. They, for some reason, couldn't, didn't. So they tried to adopt domestically and they kept moving. He was in the military. So every time you move, it starts. over. So that became constant starting over.

Amy went on a mission trip to Haiti and went to an orphanage and met these kids and picked up a little boy. He peed on her. I was like, I think this is a sign. And him and another little girl, they're not biological brother and sister. But at the time he was

how old? Like three. Two and a half when I met him. But yeah. And then later we decided we would want multiple kids. So we put in for a boy and a girl. and ended up being matched with him and then her. And she is, how much older than him, five years? Mm-hmm.

Yeah. She's 10 and a half now. He's seven. Okay. So here we are. It's Thursday, December 14th. So tell me where you are in your head and what's happening as far as you going to get the kids. We've booked our flight down there.

When do you leave America? Sunday. Okay. So that means what? It means that I feel comfortable enough going down there. I don't know if we'll be there one day or, Five days. Really?

But we're going to be there. Will you come back without the kids? No. Nope. How do you know you're going to get them? Is everything cleared? Because, well, no. If it was cleared, I would know.

I would have a date because we're literally just waiting for, like, one thing to get done. And as soon as that does get done, the embassy is ready. Like, they're ready. So I just, you know, it just a matter of when that gets done, can they complete it within a few hours or is it going to take them 36 hours? I don't know. Will they be your kids in Haiti? You just have to get them here. Yeah. Like their little passport information stuff is like their name with our last name and, you know, I really... Is their name changed over there now? Mm-hmm. It's officially changed. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, it's officially changed. So I, it's weird. We were

looking at our return flights so we would be buying a flight for them. And so that part is kind of weird. We're buying four flights home and we will type in their name with our last name and then their country of origin to be Haiti. And then we're waiting on their passport numbers. So you go Sunday and you come back anytime Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. Yeah. Basically. We're all, we're just on standby. So at some point next week, your kids are going to be on American soil.

Yes. Wow. Like I feel super confident saying that. That's crazy. It's just this big long storybook that we've been living for. And that it's coming right before Christmas and then just all the things. Like it's crazy. I can't believe it's going to be the best Christmas ever.

Okay, Bobby Wisdom? Would you like a piece? What's your Bobby Wisdom? Just plan on one more huge hurdle popping up that you're not expecting. I feel like I'm on that hurdle right now. Just one more. Once you get over there, something's going to happen. You're going to be like, oh, no.

I feel like right now my legs are up. The hurdle like I'm leaping over. You got a full more solid one in the way. I know. I feel like I could win an award for how many times in the last month that I've said, we're going to know more tomorrow. Here's an award. Thank you.

I'm going to give me this award right here. Every day. It is the Bobby Bone Show. I heart country personality of the year. Here you go. It's right here. Because my family is trying to book flights and be here and do stuff. So they call every day with an update.

And I'm like, oh, I really feel like we'll know more tomorrow. My sister already booked flights. to Nashville. To see the kids? To be here when they arrived. She already booked her flights. So it was like, okay, no pressure. I mean, she can change it, obviously.

But I mean, I guess she felt pretty confident, which is awesome. So next week, you think your kids will be in America? Yes. Okay. There's your update. George Clooney's fun, huh? Like, they go on an airplane, all of a sudden. They have a baby with them.

First of, I'm surprised they're not flying private. that they're in a public airplane with normal folks. They got a bunch of money. It was a overseas flight, though. So they get on, and they have two six-month-old twins, and they give everybody noise-canceling headphones. They're like, hey, sorry about these babies, so they just start passing out these big old nice headphones.

The whole plane. Yeah. That's awesome. That's a baller. They passed out noise-canceling headphones during a recent flight to England. They featured the logo of his Casamingo's tequila, and it came with a note apologizing ahead of time. Clooney 56 and I'm all 39.

Welcome Ella and Alexander in June. There was a story also about George Clooney. He had 14 friends and he gave them all a million bucks each. So amazing. And paid their taxes for a year. So the story comes up in 2013. He had 14 of his closest friends come to his house for dinner. They arrived.

They found a black designer luggage bag. When they opened the bag, they found a million dollars and $20 bills each. Crazy. George Clooney said, I want you guys know how much you meant to me how much you mean on my life. I came to L.A. I slept on your couch. I'm so fortunate in my life to have all of you. I couldn't be where I am today without all of you. So we give

them all a million bucks. Wow. Crazy. I need a friend like that. Hey, Bones, bones. What? You work hard for your money. Yeah. And when you do get the chance to share your money with anyone? I do share my money with school. Yeah. I know, no, I mean, us. Like that story. No, you guys didn't. No, you guys, I didn't sleep on your couches. You should give you your money. You never slept on my couch?

No, you should give me your money. money. Yeah, I've slept on your couch before. But there has been time, well, I don't know about everybody on the show that's benefited in front of it, but a lot of people have benefited from Bobby's money. Yeah. Oh, no, no, I know. I just meant this story. Like, he gave it to his how many friends? Eleven? Fourteen. That's pretty cool. I mean, I don't think it's been in like a briefcase,

but it's been in paychecks. Bobby's sharing money. Well, no, we worked for that. No, no, no. I've taken money out of my contract for all of you guys. He's like, hey, I'm going to give up. I'll just cover the raises. Yeah. But what he's saying is, I'm not paying you guys anything. Stop begging.

No, no, not begging. Just pointing out. I can thank you for being in your life like George said. You know what? I'm not giving you guys any money. Oh, okay, fine. Christmas spirit. Man, ball humbug.

That's not Christmas spirit. I can't even tell a story about somebody being generous without people going, like, give me something, Bobby. Oh. I didn't think about that. No, it's every time. Hey, hey, I just brought it to. Every time.

Every time I'm like, oh, did you see this person to this? Well, hey, Bobby, what did you give me $20? Yeah, yeah, I get that. It doesn't mean want to share good stories because all you guys do is beg. It's like, hey, you got a quarter? Hey, I'm going to stop, Eddie. Hey, man, you can use that change sitting next day? Hey, do you like that wallet you have?

I do. Well, when you don't like it anymore, we're going to have it. Can we stop? Okay, I'll stop. Come on. Everybody's doing just fine in here. By the way, I'm going to Garth on the 22nd. Are you decided?

I have decided. Wow. Got an offer. Well, as that come to any of the show, just let me know which one. I'm going to go up and I'm going to sing the dance You are? No Oh, I believed it too

I just like You just said you got an offer And you decided you're going to go And I'm like, what? So I'm going to go on the 22nd Because he's doing seven shows in a row here And Garth's my favorite But can you imagine how mad the crowd would be

If Garth went And now to just imagine the crowd And now to sing the dance Bobby Bowles Hey everybody! They'll be like, what? What the? And I'm like,

You know the words. And Garth walks off stage. And it's just me and my red track suit up there. That would be terrible. All right, Jimmy in the band. Ready? Here we go. I'm like, what?

I'm like, looking back. Boo. Where's Garth? I want my money back. So, no, I'm not singing. Good than sweet shit. Thought you were. It's the next to last show of his American tour.

I was going to go on the last to last, but I'm playing the operty that night. I'm doing stand-up that night. Yeah. It's pretty amazing. But I'm going to go. Can't go to Garth because I'm playing the other. Oh, rough life.

You know what? You guys can hate all you want. That was awesome. That was awesome. That was not a hate. That was very much hater tone. What? I heard it.

Okay. Hater tone. Oh, no, no, no. You said I'm going to. Straight from the golden hate bridge. No, it was just funny because it was like, oh, what is this life? This life is, I've been grinding on the road for years, telling jokes. And now I do comedy.

And I went and did it. once. They were like, it's pretty good. Come back. And so I get to keep going. So don't be, don't. No, no, it's amazing. Everybody's hating on me. Wait, how, just because these guys over here were begging for money now, my one comment, it's lifted to negativity and it wasn't. Whatever. Whatever. Anyway, that's how we deal with each other. Whatever. Whatever. That's a good coping mechanism, guys. Tomorrow's the Christmas party here on the show. Oh, you think there's some tension now. Wait till tomorrow. Oh, boy. Guys, I did get a note that my gift from Mike D's in, crushed it.

I mean, Mike D, prepare for the greatest gift of your life in your mind. Prepare for the great. And I don't like building things up. Well, I mean, that is definitely what you're doing. And I might have went a little overboard on spending. Oh, overboard. I might have went a little overboard on spending. Of course.

Because I feel like you have to get something personal. It's just not about going to buy something expensive. You just go buy a watch. Like, who cares? You don't buy a watch. Yeah, you get him something that he needs. No. I got him something. Not in something he needs. There's something awesome, huh?

Mike D. will think this is the greatest gift. See, he might cry. What? And I don't want to build it up. But it's probably the greatest gift you ever got in your life. Oh my gosh, I have ideas in my head. The theme is 90s. Christmas tomorrow?

Hey Amy, come about telling you're here. Okay. You tell me. Amy, and then you tell us. Yeah, that's why I wanted to draw me. I got telling her. Turn that music up. We can hear you. Yep.

Oh, that's cool. That's a good gift. We never know anything. Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah. It's the best time. How much, Amy? Wow. Wow. How do you even do that?

How did you do that? How did you do that? I bought a car that's shaped like Mighty's head. How did you do that? He can drive his own head around. I mean, it's not that. Yeah. I mean, it's not crazy.

but I nailed it. And I was worried it wasn't going to be here in time. And I just got a note that it's being delivered today. It's here. It's being towed in. Wow. His secondary gift is also awesome. Secondary. In case this one didn't come up. Oh my goodness. Yeah, you want to know what that is coming? I'll tell you. No. What? I got to tell Amy. Man. Turn the music up. We heard you last time. It's a 90s. No, you didn't. It's a 90s thing. Hey, lunch, what do you think it is? I'm just going to be disappointed because I got this year. Wow. How much? Wow.

How did you do that? Even with the backup? Even with the backups. How did you do that? See, tomorrow's the big Christmas show. Could I complain for a minute? No. Oh, wait, no.

We're at a tag. What do you want to complain about? The one time Bobby draws my name was last year when it's Cracker Barrel Christmas. I mean, of all the years. What did you get? I don't even know Oh, see, that's his thing. And he bought Ray a gift and he just

told me off the air that it's a terrible gift. He already knows it's a terrible gift. No, no, no, the reason, because I originally bought him something, I found out it was a knockoff from China and I was like, no, so I had to cancel the order and so I had to get him a last minute gift. What did you want to get him? I wanted it. He's a big Michigan State basketball fan,

so Mateen Cleves was the best basketball player there in the 90s. So I tried to buy him a Mateen Cleves, Michigan State basketball jersey, And it was fake. It was a fake one from China. It cost like $11. It was going to be the first tip. And so I was like... How much was it?

It was like 50 bucks. Buy it now. And so I canceled the order. It's not bad. Yeah, but it wasn't real. Obviously, it's not real. It was from China. And I was like, what in the world?

I got Colplay to come to the house. How did you do that? Well, it's the Chinese version. And I got to pay for all their flights. But they're really good. They're the Chinese cover band of Coal Play. I bought it now. Amazing.

$18. Oh. Yeah. Tomorrow is a big Christmas show. On my Instagram, I take a picture of my dog because what he'll do is he sits around the corner and he doesn't think I can see him. And he peeks around the corner.

So I took a picture of him thinking I can't see him. Oh, but I can see him. So cute. And then everybody's like, look at how nice your floors are. Are my floors cool? Oh, do they mean like nice? Like you have nice hardwood? Or like you take care of it?

I don't know anything about floors. I didn't notice that. You have nice hardwood. Yeah. People notice. The weirdest stuff. It's clean. Let's see.

Most guys, they probably were like, he's a guy, he's a bachelor. We don't expect his hardwood. I'm a bachelor. I mean, you're a bachelor. Like, most people don't expect your wood to be, like, so clean and shiny. That's a nice floor, man. Yeah. Is it?

Yeah. It's like you're out there with the floor cleaner. It's good wood. I keep my house clean. Yeah, you stay tidy. I shouldn't get commended for a clean house. We should just all have clean houses. We should clean our houses.

Yeah. Good point. Mr. Bobby Bowens, if you want to see the picture of my dog, peeking her in the corner, but mostly, I guess, my floors. But someone got me the other day because I posted a picture on my bedroom, and there's still a picture up that I haven't. Oh, boy. I shouldn't say taken down. I just haven't taken it down of Lindsay and I. Yeah.

And you can see it in the background, and listeners were commenting on it. Yeah, that's okay, though. Like, we're not secretly dating. There's a rumor out that, oh, are they secret? We're not. She did bring a Christmas gift over last night, though. How'd that go? Good.

I can give her anything back. You decided not to do anything. That's not true. That's not what I said. I did not give her anything back last night. Okay. What happened? What did he said, Amy?

I know. Okay. What do you mean? Well, I mean, did you order something? You haven't gotten it. You're still thinking about it. I felt like we weren't going to do a gift exchange right then. Okay.

Because it would have been, it felt forced. Like I had to buy her a gift. And I didn't have to buy her a gift. So I told her I'm not giving it to you right now. You're just going to let it organically happen. No, I'll give it to Brian. backside because she's playing shows and she's gone to Canada but what what you love man all this whole thing was funny to me she gave me some boxing shoes that she had ordered

before we split up and uh some like compression shorts so to work out she was like I got this for you it was a really nice up her yeah she's thoughtful for sure yes and she's a planner man she had those gifts away before. Yeah. And I think I saw on Instagram, she's already done with all of her Christmas shopping. Angie's wrapped all of her Christmas presents. Oh, she was done in like July. I know.

I'm like, what? Yeah, she's out of her mind. Yeah. Anything you guys want to ask? No, man. Well, how long did she stay? Yeah. No more than 10 minutes.

What? Okay. Wow. What did you want to have Thanksgiving dinner? She came out. Did she make her leave? Did she stay no more than 10 minutes? I made her hand up to me to the dog door.

That's on this. She was like a sheet when she walked in the door that was like two minutes mingle time. Three minutes. 30 second gift exchange. Opening presents. Okay, now you're referencing my Thanksgiving. Two minutes of TV time and then out the door. Listen, I'm OCD about times.

But what happened was it was like 8.15. It was already late for me. Her parents are in town and they had left a Christmas party for like her, maybe her label or her songwriting thing. They came? The parents came to your house? They did not. Oh. They dropped her off and just waited for her.

They waited at the end of the driveway? They were in the car. And so... Oh, man. Damn, that's like high school. She had to text her. All right, come back and get me. That she did.

That's good, though. And they responded so quickly? No, not so quickly. It was all good. Everybody relaxed. That we're just wondering, then? Was it weird? Bobby goes, y'all were like, how long was she there?

And he's like, no more than 10 minutes. One, it was late, and two, her parents were with her. And so she gave me the gifts. They were fantastically generous. And it was good. So do you high-fiver when she gives you the gift? No, I gave her a hug. Okay.

How long was the hug? Oh, my God. Three seconds. No more than three seconds. He dined it. It's like one, two, three, about three seconds. That's the appropriate. Yeah, it's a sincere hug.

It's not just like a hug, and then it's not like a ooh hug. Yeah, because obviously you sincerely appreciate her. Yeah, for sure. Fantastic. It's probably been a minute since you all hugged, though. It has. Oh, you feel good? It did feel good

It felt good to hug him anybody, man I've been lonely for a long time I know I've been just rolling solo My dog didn't like to hug me back sometimes I want to tell you my story about getting pulled over So it's 3.30 in the morning

Coming to work And I was doing 65 On the interstate And so I was driving A blue lights, right? And I'm like, oh, the fuss You know, I'm running The fuck.

Yeah The cops behind me, right? Poop, pooh. And I'm like, oh boy. And so he was sitting in the middle grass of the interstate. And I know I was doing 65 because I looked at it on my... The speedometer. So we drive and I go, well, I'm on the interstate.

I'm getting all the way out of the interstate. And I'm driving to a... Well-lit area? Yeah, a gas station or a fast food place. I was going to find one of them and make sure we had room. I don't want to put the opposite any harm on the side of any road that wasn't completely comfortable. And guys, I put my blanket around. I probably drove like three miles.

Oh, no. Yeah, how does you know you're not like trying to vape the wall? Because I was going slow and I had the blinker on. And I had my hands out of the window. So was OJ, dude. It wasn't that. But it was a little too long to be comfortable. But I felt like I owed it to him to go to a safe place.

Yeah. You can just yell that out the window. I'm driving to a safe place. Well, I just put my blinker on and I drove slow. Because he could be an imposter. No, he wasn't. For sure he wasn't an imposter. Well, I'm just saying for other people.

So I go and I pull into the rest of, The restaurant over here by the radio station, it's a, not a jack in the box, it's a little hamburgers. A white castle. Pull into the white castle. And he pulls in behind me and he comes up to the window. And by the way, I turn my interior lights on. I make sure he can see my hands because I realize every time an officer has to stop somebody, like he puts his life at the risk of whoever's in that car. And I totally respect that.

And so, boop, lights on, hands on my steering wheel. He says, hey, do you know how fast you were going? I said, yeah, I was going 65. And he was like, that's correct. I was like, cool. And apparently there's one stretch of the interstate that's 55. Oh. And I didn't know that.

So it's totally on me. Yeah. And so he says, can I see your driver's license, please? I said, yes, sir. So I'm reaching my bag because my wallet was in my backpack. And so he says, okay, cool. So I'm reaching in the bag and giving my driver's license. I'm glad I didn't ask for insurance.

I don't even know what that is, but he didn't ask for it. Really? Yeah, I don't know. It's probably in there somewhere. He got lucky. Yeah. So he goes and he runs it and he goes, okay, you're clear. He said, hey, he said, no one ever tells the truth about how fast they were going.

You're like, you told me on the dot. He was like, no. He said, I was going 64. You went over. Yeah, I went over. I probably went 80, huh, sir? I think I might have been doing 100. No, you're actually doing 64.

And he also, it was like 3.30 in the morning. And they were looking for drunks at 3.30 in the morning. Did he ask you if you were, like, leaving the club? No. because I just looked like I wasn't leaving the club. Like I looked like me. Hey, a little nerdy guy in a hoodie going for. I'll stretch out of the shower.

And so, yeah, he was totally cool. And he let me go, no warning, nothing. But I just thought it was funny when he was like, yeah, yeah, you weren't going that fast. He was like, thanks for being honest. He was like, you're welcome. But I really thought I was, I should have got a ticket if he would have wanted to give me a ticket because I wasn't wrong. I just didn't know that was a slower area. Lucky.

And I wasn't drunk. And honest, yep. And I think they just get a lot of drunks. Yeah. And I was also doing like figure eights and stuff. It's my way. What do you call it when you take your car and you swear both sides to side? Oh, like NASCAR when they're warming up the tires?

No, like when you cruise. Like you drift. I was drifting. Swag surfing. Okay. He's just saying words now. Okay. Is that not his call?

I don't know. He just yelled words. Okay. Goobly goblin it. No. Wax on, wax on We did this thing where I'm like, hey, tell us Sheper Christmas Memory

and I run them on Christmas Day or Christmas Eve and I got the same note for about three people about how Fakes Eddie's is That's terrible. So fake. It's so fake. But you always do these fake things where you're like, I'm the perfect family man.

I haven't heard it. I haven't heard it. Let me listen to it first. Is that what you think this is? I don't know because three different people message me and said Eddie's family memory is so fake. They laughed at me so hard.

Okay, I haven't heard this. I would like to play it now. Do I just hit play? It says it's 38 seconds. Like, do I have to hear all of it? No, it's us laughing and making fun of them at the end. Okay. Okay, obviously wasn't in the room.

So here we go. I'm going to have to go with something that we... So I say, hey, what's your favorite Christmas memory? Eddie. And so, we recorded them in two different places. I recorded all the laydowns in the studio and then everyone inserted theirs over the top of it. Because I've been out of town.

Stop laughing. Stop laughing. Did you send in the... Mr. Snake? Oh, absolutely. Okay, you're one of them? There are three people, Eddie, they told on you. Great. Okay, so I'm like, producer Eddie, tell us your favorite Christmas memory. I'm going to have to go with something that we probably did a bunch. It wasn't one memory specific, but there were a lot of nights, Christmas Eve nights that my dad would say,

get in the car, we're going to go deliver gifts and food to all our friends and family. We would go around town, and we would just deliver, like, whatever we made. My mom would make these sugar cookies. We'd give it to them. And half of these people, I didn't even know. what are you all laughing at? Stop! Stop! This guy is like his favorite Christmas moment

is delivering gifts to someone else. Get out of town! Go ahead, go ahead. Jerks. What? You started laughing. He started laughing. Okay, okay.

Is that funny to you, Bones? Okay, here's my opinion. Yeah. I don't think anything wrong with that. That's what I'm saying. Like, that was truly a good memory of mine. It's probably a good memory of yours. I think you're probably playing it up a little bit, but that's okay.

But I don't think there's anything wrong with that. He's the one hating on you because he loves presents so much. Yeah, stop. He's acting like he wasn't excited. He was excited about baking goods and going handing them out to random people. I agree. And he's all over the top with about how good it is. I'll be honest.

I can't remember one present I got as a kid. Like, that wasn't a thing for me. Well, Lunchbox loves presents, so it blows him away. Yeah. What was yours? I don't have yours up. What was yours? Mine was when I was 11 years old and we were in Chicago at my grandparents' house

and I woke up, I run downstairs, and I'm all excited about presents, and I look outside, and it's actually snowing on Christmas, and we went outside and built a snowman in the backyard like they doing movies. Like, it was awesome. There you go. I don't think there's anything wrong with yours, Eddie, but I do think you were doing the Eddie a bit where you kind of make things better than it is. I mean, I don't know if anything was better or not, but that's what we did, Christmas

Eve. I don't think there's anything wrong with it at all. I think it's special, and he wants to continue the tradition. Yeah, I said that too before they interrupted me. and he was the big interrupter he was the instigator no I did not laugh first and then Ray was laughing

and then I looked over to Amy and she was kind of like hiding because you know Eddie you know how Eddie does Eddie it just got awkward because we all were like it just got funny but Eddie I didn't know you out

I don't think they say a problem I don't see a problem with it my ruling is you're good thank you yeah Christmas Eve that's probably what you're going to do yeah with your family see

see bones they're hating on you I'm not hating on you for the record they are. You guys. A surgeon admits to signing his initials on patient's livers. And so. Oh, man.

I had that in my pile. This 53-year-old surgeon, his name is Simon Bramhall. He was in court. He admitted to signing his initials on two different patients' livers. Another doctor went in and saw it. Yeah, for a different surgery. And then ratted him out. Well, it's a thing where you probably should tell.

Like, that's one of those. But I wouldn't mind someone because that means we're proud of the work. You don't sign something you're not proud of. So if he rocked that gallbladder and he wants to throw a little you know, S-B on there, I have no problem with that. I feel it's like you're proud. Yeah, like you say, they're proud. You're leaving your mark.

Like you don't sign a painting that you don't, you're proud of. This is a deliver. I know. I'm saying, if he signed it, he probably did a good job. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, okay. But you can't go around and sign people's body parts. Without letting them know. So you think that person's going to get some money? Well, the thing is, nobody would have ever seen it either. Yeah, no one ever knows.

He can be just doing it for himself to be funny. He can't show that off to anybody. Yeah. Well, unless that person is another surgery and the other doctor sees it. Like this one. Yeah. John Stamos expecting his first child. John Samos is 54.

Whoa. That's awesome. Eddie's clapping. They can't tell he's clapping. Oh, I'm sorry. His girlfriend's 35. Yeah, so they're having their first baby. And so I saw Lori Loflund, who played Aunt Becky, put out a statement.

She was like, I'm very happy for him. Did they date in real life ever? Yeah, I think so. I do. You know what she does now? Probably Hallmark movies if you're asking right now. Hallmark Christmas movies. Yeah.

Yeah. That's about right. Yeah. But so John Samo's 54. He's a good-looking dude. Yeah, he is. He's a good-looking dude. And he, yeah, he's a good-looking dude.

How do they do that? He grows a beard well. If you have all your hair and you can grow a beard, especially that isn't gray or you dye it, you can keep that young look. Okay. That's what I'm going to do. I'm going to grow a beard, have all my hair and wear sunglasses, so you see nothing

but hair and sunglasses. He's like, he still looks 22. That's it. 22. I was, uh, Kendrick Lamar, I was listening to his interview with Howard Stern and Kendrick Lamar, the rapper. Did you hear what he said? Uh-uh.

He said he was abducted by aliens when he was a kid. Oh, boy. What? Yeah. He said he was probably abducted by aliens, but nobody believed him, and they don't believe him now. Where did they take him? Well, I'd say when he was six years old.

He said it's something he can't describe because it was like a dart in the past and they asked if he was abducted. He goes, yeah, probably. He says, that's why I'm doing music right now. They gave me the energy. What if he's, listen. Okay, stop.

Stop. Stop. He's not. You always said, like, okay, so if you die and say you make it to the other side and you come back to life, like, and you write a book about it, nobody's ever going to, how do they really know?

How can they prove you wrong? So like, same with this. I don't say die. I say it. and act like you died and write a book and say well I died and went and talked. Oh, yeah. Saw my uncle John.

They can't prove you wrong. Exactly. Like we can't prove this six-year-old. You can't prove them right or wrong. I'm just saying. What percentage of you believes him? Oh, not 1%. Like I just think it could be a thing.

A 99% thinking if I'm not. And if he did go, then the aliens, they gave him his energy. His energy. What about that, though? I wonder why he thinks he thinks he was abducted. Because he think

people are weird. That's your answer. You went through all that and got a few hours. I was going to try to say that I didn't serve. I was going to say he's an idiot but I don't want to say that because everybody has the right to their own opinion.

Amy told us earlier she leaves Sunday to go to Haiti and she doesn't know when she's coming back but when she comes back she will have those kids with her. Do we have the grid of who has what days? Because we bet on what day those kids would be on American soil. I'm wondering who has

So it's when they land in Miami? Yeah, is this it? Yeah, it's feet on American soil. Okay, so not feet in Nashville, it's feet in Miami. In American soil. Okay. So wait, so... But you already missed two of your days.

Well, I know that, because I picked the 12 on 13th. And I picked those days, and lunchbox started screaming, and it was rigged. Well, yeah. Now it's proof it wasn't rigged. It wasn't. It was never... I was home for those days, but Bobby had zero clue. So Eddie has tomorrow.

And the day after. Ooh. I don't think you're going to get it. But I don't even leave till Sunday. What day do you leave? Sunday. The what? The 17th.

Okay. I have the 19th to 20th, the 21st, and 22nd. There you go. There you go. Boom. Yeah. You knew. No, I bet those way, way, way early.

I bought those other dates later. So there goes that theory. I mean, I would venture to say Bobby wins. Boom. Can I have my money now? I'll tell you what. I'll make you guys a deal. I'll take 90% of it right now.

Or, wait, what? Or 100% of it later. No, what are you talking about? get out of here. But Amy gets her kids. Crazy. She's going to come back next week and have her kids with her. That's crazy.

Bobby Bones. The Bobby Bones Show. Amy has a tourniquet in her car in case anybody needs it. Oh, wow. Yep. A legit certified tourniquet. It's not just a rope. It's a tourniquet.

Why? I have no idea. I guess my husband had an extra one and he put it in my glove box. He's like, remind me if we need to have a little session on exactly how to use this, but it's pretty self-explanatory and I'm going to put it right here in case you ever need it. And I'm like, what is it? happening. So I have it in my console. So why would you need it? I guess in case

somebody needs a tourniquet. Like, I don't know. Is he starting to like get my car already for kids? Like, I feel like I'm going to get in there and there's going to be like safety things and roadside assistant things. Like the flares over to your left. Not jumper cable.

It's a tourniquet. All kinds of things. Snacks and matches and flashlights. Do you know where to tourniquet? Like, where to put it? Well, I mean, it depends where the... Yeah, where it's the... Yeah, where the injury is. Yeah.

I wouldn't have, no clue. I mean, if it's the arm, you put it on the arm. You can Google it. There's a guy. He's a businessman. He was diagnosed with terminal cancer. And he threw a huge party to say thank you and goodbye. He's 80 years old.

He invited a thousand guests, including friends, former schoolmates, business partners, and employees. And he was like, listen, I'm satisfied. I want to say thank you to the people on my life. and he's decided to not go through any of the therapy because it's not going to completely save him but we just extend him a bit. He's going to deal with side effects. Yeah, your quality of life isn't great.

He's like, I'm good. And what a weird party to go to though, because it's like, hey, Ben, good to see ya. Oh, man, what a party. But it's like, don you're dying. Yeah, no, that is. That'd be a tough one to go to. But what a special thing

Because not many people get to do something like that And give your loved ones that you're leaving behind that time together It's like people who have funerals And they want them to be parties That's always a tough one for me Like you know when I go out I don't want it to be a big party Celebration

Well we called my mom's funeral We didn't call it a funeral We called it a celebration of life Yeah but it was a funeral we all cried Well whoa I didn't No what I'm saying it's different People want to have parties They're trying to have parties

Yeah. I don't know that could have enjoyed this. It's tough. I don't know that I could have enjoyed this. Unless it was like a lot of cake. Then I probably would have been able to. I do like cake. Yeah, but that's just hiding your sadness.

Yeah, I do that, though. That's my thing. That's what I'm known for around these parts. But yeah, I thought that's pretty crazy story. Doing that and John Stamos having a baby. And George Clooney giving all his friends a million dollars. Oh, man. In cash.

It wasn't it? George Clooney didn't even walk in and go, hey, check your accounts, direct deposits, all you guys. That'll be taxed. Yeah. He gave him cash money in a briefcase with 20s, a million dollars each, and said, I've got the tax cover too. It's not like Will a fortune where you got to pay tax on it. Yeah, that's thoughtful.

Yeah. You didn't just hit the daily double or whatever that is. Oh, man. One day. That'd be awesome. I don't know that I'd want that, though. Are you serious? A gift of a million dollars.

What would you know about it? I don't know that I'd want. I like to earn everything I have. Oh, stop it. Stop it. Like, even if you, like, won the lottery, like, that would be nice. Yeah, but I would have earned it because I would taking the money, driven there, picked. I would take it.

I'm saying, that doesn't excite me to go. I wish somebody would give me a million dollars. Like, I don't want anybody to give me anything. You're right. You shouldn't live your life like that. Yeah. But if someone were to do that, like, that's awesome. I wish a listener, maybe who's old right now, maybe you have a grandparent.

I don't know, maybe you're sick. Put me in your will. you know and you want them to but they can leave you everything but trust I'm gonna do something good with it oh just trust me because I will

but just trust me leave me all of whatever you have no way to give you ever heard that Billy Kernan's off people are crazy yeah yeah let's just imagine that's us so maybe you're a little sick I don't know what's wrong with you

but if you don't have a long left and you're like who do I leave my estate to let me recommend myself I will make sure it's taken care of I'll take you just trust me Huh. Wouldn't you trust me? Yeah, I guess.

Yeah, I would. That's weird because you don't want anything, but... I don't want anything. But, I mean, it would be cool to say that someone left you there a state. Yep, and I would make sure that it went to good places. Yeah, and I believe that you would do that. Or I wouldn't. You have to trust me.

You don't know. You don't know? I would. But you don't know. But really, do you ever know anything in this? No, you don't. That's my point. That's like when Kendrick Lamar gets abducted by aliens.

I'm like, that's not true, 99%. It could be 1%. You don't know. That's why I'm only 42% upset that Kelsey didn't invite me to her wedding. Right. Like, I know I'm not right about that. Because she can invite whoever she wants. It's her wedding.

Right. If it was 50.1% I would be right. I'm not right. But a little bit was hurt in my heart. That wasn't invited. So you're what, 42%. 42%? 42% like sad and irritated.

Sad. Yeah. Because whatever. That's an interesting gauge. I've never heard of anyone have a percentage on their emotions. Is that new? I'm 100. I quantify everything.

Like that's control. Yeah. Don't go 46. I just down to 42. I know I'm not right. And I tell myself that you don't have the right to be upset at Kelsey for not inviting you to our wedding. Yeah.

But is there a time? Like is this a thing where you're recognizing and you're able to, like you said, quantify it and be rapid. rational about it. I didn't know if this is a new tool. I didn't want it to get a hold of me. Because sometimes things get a hold of me and I can't shake it.

I'd be like, I'm just going to be honorary, my grandma would say. I'm honored. Be stubborn, but I was like, you know what? How upset am I? I was like 42%. That's a good number. Because anything over 50, I would be, for sure,

I feel like I was right. And I don't feel like I'm right to feel this way. But you can't, your feelings aren't wrong. You can't have wrong feelings. How you act on them can be wrong. I love when you remind me that. I tell me that all the time. Your feelings aren't wrong.

Whatever you're feeling right now, that's not wrong. That's a human thing. That's a feeling. And I'm like, yes, I can feel this way. Yes, but now you can act differently because of those feelings. You can control them. There are times to put that into the world, but your feelings aren't wrong. It's okay to have any feeling you want.

But it's not 42% feeling angry at Kelsey. Amy had mentioned the Google searches earlier. I was looking at some of the... them. So fidget spinner makes the top 10. That's the thing for a second. I haven't got a nice fidget spinner. You have a nice one? Yeah. I don't know where it is now. But it was one I paid like $11 for.

I think that was a pretty luxury fidget spin. Aaron Hernandez in the top 10. Oh boy. Why? He played for the Patriots. He killed himself in jail. Remember? That was this year? I did not remember. That's what I said. Some of this stuff comes back to you. Dude, I was reading this story about Robin Williams. And so he killed himself. Robin Williams. himself with the bell. Remember that? Yeah. And they said, hey, he was suffering from severe

depression. So I was reading the story, they're like, that wasn't it. That's not what was happening. He had dementia, early dementia. And when they examined his brain, they found these protein pockets in his brain, and he knew it, and there were times where he couldn't remember anything. And there were times, he did a Broadway play, you could remember every line of every word, like hundreds of lines in a row. But then he was shooting night at the museum and couldn't remember three lines and he couldn't figure out what was happening and they did all these treatments and they just assumed he was severely depressed but it wasn't that he knew dementia was coming in and that's the story and I read this where I was like wow and so they started talking about why dementia has become a much

bigger thing now than it used to be and the reason isn't that we're doing things differently is because we're living longer and the longer you live the more prone you are to things happening to you and as you get older and your body starts to get weaker or as our body starts to break down as we get older. But I read the Rob William story and was just like, oh man, I just assumed that he had some sort of severe depression. And I think the dementia ended up bringing on some depression too. Yeah. Wow.

So, yeah, that was a crazy story. Hurricane Harvey was at 8. Terrible. Solar eclipse was at 7. Remember that? That was pretty amazing. I mean, what a thing that was from here. We were all outside staring at the sun.

Oh, we were all outside looking at the sun. And it was for a literal minute. Yeah, it was crazy And I thought This is gonna be the stupidest Most overhyped thing ever And it was actually Really cool

And where we live Was right where it did a full 100%. So we got to experience The darkness At my house it was super light And then I went super dark Where the crickets All this sudden

Wild life So crazy Yeah like a wolf Almost attacked me I saw I get dark And this wolf starts charging me Oh yeah Yeah

And luckily You got this panther jumped in and caught it right before. Yes, it was crazy, man. Panther. All the knock-tur. The crime rate went up really crazy for like that one minute. Like, banks were getting robbed like crazy because it was dark. So dumb.

Just start telling your kids that. It was crazy. Back in 2017, it got dark for a whole minute. Every store in town got robbed. You ever seen the purge that movie? That's what it was like. Yeah, so there's that. Mayweather McGregor fight was one of the top ones.

The Las Vegas shooting was in the top five. Super Bowl. Tom Petty was at three. I'm amazed that Matt Lauer is at two. Just because of the timing of it. It just happened. Yeah. With that last week?

Or two weeks ago? Yeah. I mean, it just happened. And it's the number two search thing on Google. And he's the most searched person. Well, I don't know the number one. What's number one? Hurricane Irma.

Okay. Yeah. Yeah, he's the most searched person. but that just happened Unless he does in it earlier this year I don't know how Just time-wise he beats out Tom Petty

Yeah Who just had time On his side to Have more Yeah whatever Well there you go Those are the top search things From 2017

I was reading a story about losing weight And If you want to lose weight You know there are all these things you can do You can eat right You can exercise But the number one thing What do you think the number one thing is

To lose weight Oh I know I know what it is 100% sleep. It's sleep. Yeah. Really? So, sleeping is the most important thing in being healthy.

And we try to go, well, I got to exercise. Listen, exercise is third. Sleeping, eating, and then exercise in that order. Wow. Because you can exercise your brains out, but if you're not eating right, it doesn't matter. You can eat perfectly and not exercise and look pretty good. And so, but yeah, sleeping doctors are like, you have, you, you, want to really lose weight, get your seven hours and 30 minutes to eight hours a night.

Because it's all your hormones. It's your body catching up, resting, repairing itself. Yeah. Normalizing. When's the last time you slept eight hours, bones? And you're pretty fit. First of all, let's not use the word pretty. Okay, you are fit. What are you trying to say?

No, you're very fit. I don't know. Extremely. I was just being casual about it. Like, Bobby, you are. So fit. Incredibly fit. You're like the fittest person I know.

Thank you very much. Okay, sorry. My bad. I probably, I don't know, probably once in a month or so. Oh, okay. That's pretty good. Yeah. But probably on the road when we have a bus.

But I don't know if I sleep all the way through. So is it because you're like moving, like a baby in a car? No, I don't, I don't like the bus that much. I'd rather have my bed because my back hurts. Like, I'm getting on. My back still hurts. I know. And I have...

You need that sleep number. We have a fantastic bus company, and they have awesome buses. But for me, and my dog sleeps on the... He moves around a lot. I think a lot of my sleep doesn't go right because my dog, too. Because he sleeps between my knees, and he's moving all over. He's old. He's sick.

So he's always like, br-oh. So I'm always moving. I think my back hurts. Because my dog is sick. People ask for updates on him all the time. They gave him three months to live. I guess they gave him that about close to a month ago. I'm predicting he's going to pound it out until April.

I think this dog's got it. He's getting a little skinnier. You can start to see his ribs a little bit, but he's still rocking and feeling good as far as, like, his quality of life. Like, he still plays. He came up here last night, and I came up for probably two hours last night

and just recorded a bunch of stuff for Christmas, like commercials and liners. You know, hey, you're listening on, you know, Madison's country. The moo. You know, whenever. So, no, I was up doing a lot of that. But Morgan, number one, our main producer and her dog grew up here.

My dog, I brought him up here. So my dog goes everywhere with me now. But they just played for a long time. Oh, that's cool. He's good. Good, but he's good. So get sleep and lose weight. That's the moral of the story.

Get sleep first. Eat right second. Exercise third. I can sleep. Yeah. Eating right's tough. What about that exercise? And then zero.

Okay. Walking, walking, but that's about it. I thought you were. jogging or running. I walk now. I walk every day. You walk? Like power walk?

I walk the dog every day. Yeah. But that's it. But you should walk the dog for the dog's sake. I walk every day. I walk every day. I walk the- Listen, listen, I eat.

I mean, I feed the kids. Commendable. I eat first and then I feed the kids. You're crazy, man. Bobby Boms, everybody. Transmitting across America. Tomorrow we have the Christmas party on the air So much Christmas joy and cheer and gifts

And smiles all around Tomorrow morning I'll show Take it away, Burle Have a holly jolly Christmas That's right It's the best time of the year I don't know Burl lives, I don't know

It's like who's Burrell I don't know See if Burrell lives sings only jolly Christmas It doesn't say that up here If I'm If I'm betting money on it in jeopardy, I would have run him with Burl Lives because that was my instinct. There you go. Burl Lives.

Is it? Yeah, man, you got it. Could name him if he walked in the room. Is he alive? Let's see. No. He died in 1995. Rest of peace.

Burrell? Burl lives. Nailed that, though. I'll take a rose on my nose. Time for Amy's Pyle. Here's Amy's Pile of Story. So I saw this video on the news this morning when I was getting ready and I was like, oh, we're talking about it because this little girl, she has her first wrestling match ever.

She's like four years old. She's on the mat, taking on her opponent. Well, her two-year-old little brother, he's watching in the stands of his mom. And he thinks his sister is getting attacked. So he runs out onto the mat and starts attacking the other guy. Yes. It's a little kid. It's hilarious.

Great video. It's on my Twitter radio Amy if you want to check it out because the video just makes you smile. You're like, this is amazing. Even the referee laugh and grab the kid. That's so cool. And I was thinking four-year-olds wrestle already in tournaments. But yeah, they do. And two-year-old brothers.

They like to protect their sisters. So I'm very into the royal anything right now, especially because the crown is back on Netflix. And you've got Prince Harry engaged. So do you know what the Queen of England gives her entire staff for Christmas? I bet not what George Clooney did, a million dollars a year. No. Let me guess.

The Queen of England will give her entire staff Silverware. Really nice silverware. No, she has a staff of 1,500. That would be really expensive. One fork per person. I don't know she had a staff that big. She gives them pudding.

The Queen pays for 1,500 Christmas puddings to be distributed to her staff in all the palaces. There's no uh-uh, because people don't get bonuses. That's not a real thing. pudding Yeah, from the queen You go to the pudding No, that sounds amazing to me

Like I'd be like Gather around family We're all having dessert tonight It's pudding from the queen How come you guys are such haters Of free stuff Like you didn't You didn't do anything

If the old lady wants to give you some pudding You know what If the old lady wants to give you Some free pudding Take the pudding You don't even have to eat it Right She's like 700

She's probably like Oh the pudding back when I was seven This was real good Thank you me ma'all for the pudding And then go about your day. But then didn't hurt. She didn't hurt you to take grandma put it. It's the queen, man.

She can't give me a ruby or something. Exactly. This is for her staff. I mean, this is like tons of people and she's only 91. A ruby. I don't know. Emerald. But how are you also, if you're Prince Charles, right?

So that's the day. Who's that? Her son? You get to be king if she dies. Yeah. I think he's going to pass it over. I bet. To the prince.

To the Baldwin one. The bald one. William? Yeah. Oh, okay. Not the Baldwin brother, but the bald one. too. Okay, well, they're both. Prince Harry's losing his hair, too.

Yeah, I guess I'm getting chastised on Why? Because I didn't know Burlives, full story. He is the snowman of Rudolph. And Rudolph, Rudy. Did you know that? No. And of course, other things. What is the song? So he's the Christmas singer, dude? He was a guy. I mean, I knew it's Burlives. I don't know. No, yeah, you knew who it was. That's impressive. I'm sorry.

You know who Bing Crosby is. I do know who Bing Crosby is, yeah. And he sings White Christmas. Why are you asking these in questions? Yes, I know. She's not sure of herself. It's the gym right here. Okay, so there's this school

in London, well, college, like a really good one there. And they put on Twitter, dreaming of a white campus. But they just meant that it might. You can't do that. That sounds very racist. That just clicked. Like I've heard a lot of things that sound racist.

That's one of them. Yeah, they tweeted, dreaming of a white campus question mark. and they really were putting a play on the song White Christmas because it was going to snow. I can't do that. And they wanted the students to be aware of the snow day. And obviously there was backlash and they apologized and they did not mean anything racist. Yeah, I probably couldn't apologize fast enough if I did that one.

It's like, oh, I'm sorry! Oh, no! They were like, we were talking about the weather. Oh, because I believe they were talking about the weather. They really were. The wintry weather was a coming. But what if you see that and they don't notice? Like the subject of the school white email dreaming of a white campus.

Like, what the hell? Oh, man. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. That was terrible. But totally something that I can see myself not realizing. Totally. Yeah.

Man. Okay. And lastly, if you have $1,000 laying around, you can get someone on your Christmas list, a voice message from Whoopi Goldberg or a video message from Jonah Hill. Oh, Whoopi Goldberg voicemail? Listen. That's like 20 bucks. I tried to Google if there was like a charity attached to this.

No, I couldn't find anything other than that these are legit for sale and you can buy them. And I started to think for Christmas. I should take a bubble bath that we'll be going over for $1,000. That's weird. That's really weird. That's where your brain goes. A call? I know, but who would you say someone gifted you a call and they spent money and for Christmas?

They got you a video message from someone who do you want it to be from? Well, it doesn't matter. Is it live video? Yeah. So I get to do it a FaceTime with that? Sure. Yep. FaceTime. I get to pick anybody?

Anybody. Probably Burr alive. Have a holly jolly Christmas. It's the best time of the year. I mean, David Letterman's my hero. But I'll also like him because he just doesn't care. I don't know he would be like, why am I doing this? He turned my face after I paid for it.

No, he would tell you that. For it, we did. Yeah, yeah, but he'd be like, why am I even doing this? Like, why did I even agree to do this? Like, he'd be like, so what do you want to talk about? I love Letterman. I think Ricky Jervase is hilarious, but he wouldn't get. The people that I would like, wouldn't like to do it.

Like, I think that Jimmy Kim will be fun. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Where would Whoopie come in on the list? A bubble pad. Right about Burlives. He's not alive anymore. I didn't know.

Yeah, Wopee's the phone call and Jonah Hill's the video. Jonah Hill's lost a bunch of weight. Oh, he's skinny. again. Yeah. Oh, he went back. He fluctuated. Oh. For a movie role, I think. I knew he went back down. I never knew he gained it back. Oh, yeah, gained a lot of that. But he's lost it again? He's back and forth. Like a yo-yo, man.

I mean, that can't be healthy either. No. Going from one to the other. Anything else? Nope, I'm Amy. That's my pile. There it is. And with that... That was Amy's pile of stories. Yeah. Bobby Bones.
