Morning. Let's see what's happening. in everybody's lives in our segment called What's the Haps? Hey! Hey! What's the Haps? On my Instagram story, just for a few more minutes. I did post a video of my dog, and I'll let him up into bed with me in the morning.

Because he'll chill in his room or the living room. And I let him up, and there's a video of me going, okay, you only took five. Come here, StanList, to get him to come, right? And he does the thing when he looks at me. He knows what I'm saying. He turns his head. He knows what I'm saying. It took five, right? So I post it, but it's really, I don't really show my whole

bedroom. And you see my whole bedroom and I'm going, I'm thinking out loud. I'm like, what are people going to zoom in on the Instagram story? Oh, because you know they will. Yes. And I'm starting to be like, oh, boy, oh, people don't. But then I do. Anytime anyone shows their house or I'm zooming. For sure. I'm looking at the tile. I'm looking in the refrigerator. I look at everything. So, but I did look. The only thing, I'm going to pull it up again here. The only thing there is in this whole thing is, he, he's, he, He has a dog bone that he brought, here we go. He has a, there's some art behind me that you'll see, right?

And it's drawn horses. It's not nudie art. It could be like, look at that nudie art. It's horses, people with horses. And then there's a couple of his dog toys on the very, very bottom of the bed. There's a Peloton bike in the back. And the only real sloppy thing that I have working for me is I have a bunch of charger cables all over the ground next to my bedside stand.

Normal. Normal, but I can see where it just feels. I hate when I walk in my room and that's what I see. We got to find a better way. Yeah, I guess so. There's got to be a better way. But there's only a few hours left to judge me on my Instagram story. Because I do it too, and I'm sitting here going hope people don't judge me.

But then I'm like, I judge everybody by the right. If you post it, it's free game to zoom in on it. Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram, if you want to go check that out. Amy, over to you. Hey! What's the hat? So I was getting the kids like snacks for the day, like prepared like the day before. They can take a snack to school, especially Stevenson, because he's only in, like, second grade.

And I'm packing it, and I did carrots and blueberries and raspberries, which, I mean. Like, no, but a little baggy of carrots, a little baggy of raspberries. You're eating this sweet and you get a carrot? No, I mean, in a little thing, little pockets for it. So I kind of, I'm thinking like, this is good. He loves eating this stuff. And then he says to me, and now he's at a new school with lots of kids, and he's like, I'm embarrassed of my snacks. And I was like, what?

This stuff, this stuff is amazing. This is so good. What are they bringing? Cheetos. Oh, no. I know. And it's like, as a mom, I don't know what to do because we, that's not going to be a snack choice for him.

But he said that that's what other kids have, which is fine. Is there any way you could convince him that Caras are just big, more expensive Cheetos? Oh, I said, this looks like a Cheeto. He goes, but it's not a Cheeto. And he just, he just seemed a little deflated and said, Mom, it's embarrassed. And I don't know if another kid said something, who knows what's driving that. But now all of a sudden, it's a thing to have the fruits and the veggies as your snack.

And I'm just like, oh, like part of me wants to be like, come on. Other moms get on board. But I mean, I get it. Like a lot of times I don't have time to always do that. Or maybe some moms don't even see an issue with Cheetos, which is fine. But it's just, I'm like, oh, it's starting to happen. It's starting to happen. And I guess he learned what, ew me or ew.

Like, he never used to go, ew. Oh, you're getting other kids. Influenced. And so now he treats sometimes when I'm putting food on his plate that he had no issue eating. He's like, ew. Ugh. I'm like, stop growing up. Is there any way that you could use a bit of manipulation with the food?

Let me run this by you. Please do. What if you tell him, hey, listen, I get it. Cheetos are good, but there's a secret these kids don't know is that these carrots will actually make you grow. They don't know it. That's why they're not eating it. Because he wants to grow. He's small.

Like, don't tell them. It's kind of our secret that if you eat these kids. carrots, it's going to help you grow faster. And if they were doing it, they would be getting bigger too, but they're not smart like you. Is there any way you can like look? I mean, I guess I could do that. I've already done the whole, like if you eat the, he likes eating carrots. So that's not the issue.

I don't have to, that doesn't always been a thing, but I've done the whole, like, it'll help you see better in the dark kind of thing. And he likes that, but I could use that angle for sure. Because I did, this is the line I used and it doesn't work. I said, you know what? I bet some of those kids are at home right now with their mom. And they're being like, mom, I'm embarrassed of these Cheetos. Could you please pack me some?

There's this kid in my class that has carrots and blueberries. Could I get that? Because I'm embarrassed on my Gitos. And he was like, I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think so. I know at all that. So, anyway, it just, it's just, it's hard. I get in the grand scheme things, isn't that crazy.

But, yeah, I don't want him to shift how he thinks, like, eating shouldn't be embarrassing. It is, though. Everything's embarrassing when you're a kid. I know. I would try the old mind manipulation trick. I tried that. I would level up one more and say, hey, listen, here's the thing. The only reason they're not eating them, because they don't know.

Okay. Like, you have a secret they don't have. This is going to help you get bigger. And make it a secret. Yeah, because the last thing I want him to say to them is like, oh, well, I'm eating this and I'm healthy and you're not. Because I don't want it. It's not about that. I know it's not.

And I've really tried to eliminate that for sure from when I'm talking to them. So I get it. Okay. Remember secrets or currency to kids and gossippers. Okay. So it's like, this is a secret. Try that and let me know how that goes. I will.

He'll still want she does. All right. Hey, what's the hat? Watch bikes. Well, I got to say, our listeners are the best detectives in America, and I want to say thank you to them because I've finally, finally got to see Bobby's girlfriend and woo-hoo!

Let me say this. Woo-hoo! For most of our listeners, I appreciate that they were like, because there are some listeners that will... It's kind of a weird thing to say. It's uncomfortable for her to be public, and it's a talk that we've had and most of them are like, hey,

leave her alone because people were tagging her and she has a private Instagram profile and they were taking pictures off weird sites and putting them online, which I didn't feel like was very cool. Oh, yeah, it's not cool. I don't think it was very cool at all. It is part of dating me, right? Yes.

I haven't put anything up yet. I will soon. I'm not not doing it. But then they're also saying mean stuff, not mean, but it's not a very nice thing to go, well, she looks like this of Bobby's expert. girlfriend. And like in the comments. Like, not necessary.

Not necessary. And even if she doesn't see it, which she probably won't, but if she does, because we're all human, we probably will look at stuff, this is not, this is not a nice thing to do. And so, if someone's trying to be private-ish, and she's not, she's down. But people are like taking pride and being like, just to her, everybody, go find her. I know she's keeping herself private, but this is all the stuff we can find and put out there. It's just a weird situation. We're slowly getting through it, but we're getting there.

I don't even know what else to say at this point. Yeah, I mean, yeah, her account, I'm now friends with her on Instagram. And she's, that's her, but she controls who's on there. Like, she, I was shocked at the first thing I saw when it came in my feed once she accepted my request. It was a cute picture of y'all. And I was like, oh, but for her, she's putting it out there to her people. Like, only her friends are following her. Like, because that's what she allows.

So, of course, but I smile. Because I was like, oh, that's her proclaiming. Well, she asked me too. She was like, hey, I know you talked about it. Can I post a picture yet of us? I was like, you post whatever you want. It's your page. And the caption was so cute.

But for all the listeners that are being great and being like, hey, let her have her space, I appreciate that. For all that aren't. It's annoying. Just be cool. Right. Just be cool. That's it. All the little detectives out there.

Anyway, lunchbox, go ahead. Well, it was just a picture of you two at Dancing with the Stars. and it was like, I guess, an up close and, woo, boy, bones, bones. You knocked it out of the park. Like, yeah. And Amy, when you say Juliana Huff, perfect description. Is that her name Juliana?

Is it Juliana? I don't know. I don't know. One of them. Whatever her name is. But yeah, that's who I would say she looks like. And, I mean, I'm not going to say smoke show, but. Because it's your girlfriend, but there's some smoke.

He's like, I don't want to be creepy. So I'm not going to say it. Well, listen, Eddie, I spent two days. with her and Eddie gets on the air and goes, Yummy. Rockin' body. Yeah, but I mean, it's the first time I'd seen her, so I mean, I was like, woo!

Oh, gosh. I don't remember saying that, by the way. Oh, you did. He just said it in the background. Okay. And also, her listening to this show in that way's weird for her. Yeah. And also, we're on in her hometown.

She's from Oklahoma. So it's a whole thing. She's getting used to it. I'm trying to, for once in my life, respect that a little bit. I never used to. Oh, no. Here it is. Take it or leave it.

I'm trying to respect that a little more. eventually get to normalcy, but I just don't want to. I'm not like, here's a baby, throw in the pool. Oh, but she's definitely getting a more mature, Bobby. The times are different because... Times are different because I've done it wrong so many times. Right, I know. Fail until you don't. That's right. Fail until you don't. Bobby would come in and be like, well, my girlfriend and I haven't talked about this, but we got in a fight. And here's what happened. I can't say that won't happen eventually. I feel like you're much more mature. That was years ago. Well, thank you.

Thank you to all the listener. 99% of them are just being so great. There'll be a point where everything's normal. Right now, you know, it's weird to date somebody that is life is public. Yeah. So we're getting. I can't imagine. We're getting there.

All right. Hey. Hey, what's the hat? Eddie, you're up. Yeah, I talk about maturity a little bit. I don't know bones. You know, you talk about TikTok and you like it a lot. I just don't know if I can get into it because, one, there's a lot of cursing.

And I curse in my language I'm not like against it Pope Eddie But there really is my daily language In your language I do like I curse But like they I don't know They curse a lot

And they're kind of mean Like there's a lot of videos People messing with their grandmas There's a couple Or like their moms That's also That's everything And I think maybe the grandmas know it

I don't know There was one where this dude was just messing with like She had finger cups on and she couldn't get out of it. And she's cursing. I'm like, Grandma, like, what are you doing?

It's just stuff that... I think you're defining it by like you watch three videos and one and that's probably. No, no, no, both. I'm watching like two hours worth of some nights. I'm like, I gotta stop doing this. Yeah, you...

So what's your problem with TikTok? I don't know. I like it and I don't like it. It's very young at times. It's very young at times. And I haven't posted anything yet because some of those videos are really good and it's like, man,

if I'm going to compete, it's got to be real good. You're on there. Don't compete, first of all. It's not a competition. What's what you want. Eddie and I are doing a TikTok together. We did the Skarn.

After a while, I'm like, dude. You're laughing. You've got to stop. Did you see the one where he put the table above her head?

That's the one I'm talking about. I'm like, dude, what are you doing? It's a prank challenge him and his mom prank each other. And so he takes a, like a small bedside table and puts it over her. She's sleeping. It's like four legs, right? And it puts a plant on it and then puts the music right next to her. And as she's asleep and then it starts playing the music and she goes, huh?

Boom! Oh! It's doing it to each other. It's hilarious. Amy, and I laugh for like five minutes and I'm like, this is mean. I can't watch. It's hilarious. Well, you'll like, give a chance.

Here's the Bobby Bones Show podcast, highlight segment of the day. All right, everybody gets to ask one question about my current relationship. I'm not going to guarantee them an answer, but you can ask. But I think me not answering also says a lot.

I don't know, but I did promise we could do this, so let's see what we got here. I mean, everybody can ask a question. I don't care. Brady, if you only have one. All right, all right. And everybody has a different level. You're new to the show or you just came on. I have a girlfriend.

It's been a long time to have a girlfriend, years since I've had a girlfriend. And we'll leave it at that. Anything you want to know, you get one question. Amy, have your hands on your hips? Are you trying to go first? No, you're up first. You're sitting closest. Your hands are on your hips.

Yeah, because I want to hear what other people. Be a leader, not a Peter. Come on. is that real? Okay, has because it's long distance and I know that this is like down the line, but has there even been a heap of a conversation about if she would ever consider moving? A peep would be an accurate description, meaning that not for me, but we've talked about her job can move. Right. That's what I mean. Yeah, I mean, we've not said if this thing gets further of your move. No, not at all. But she's willing. I think that's very far in the relationship.

relationship is probably a bit odd. But yeah, I would say that, yeah, I think, I don't know, I hope, because I can't move. Oh, yeah, I think she knows that. Yeah. But so that's why I'm like, okay. So I don't know that it hasn't been talked about directly because we're definitely not to that stage to go. Oh, yeah, no. No, no, no, no.

But I mean, I just didn't know if there was a conversation. I would say there is no. The answer is no, a conversation, no. But I think there's been, yeah, like, could you, would you move? So yeah So and she has a job that would allow that Okay thank you There we go

Oh Eddie's raising his name now Let's go to Eddie in the back I'm producer Eddie Boston Globe You've mentioned You've mentioned things like she's funny And she's very pretty By the way you've met her So let's spend a lot of time with her

Yes I have I have But I'm like a lawyer here asking the question That I may already know But what was it specifically about her That made the next move happen. About the fourth time I laughed out loud, the first time we were together, I was like, I don't even know what's happening

here. It's one, I'm very attracted to her, but she is so funny. And I'm going to come back to you and ask you a question. Isn't she funnier than she should be? She is hilarious. Funnier than she should be. And it's not comic. Yeah, she's not doing routines. It's not stand up funny kind of style. Witty.

Just witty. Just funny. Just yeah. Okay. Witty kind of. I mean, give her the example of the basketball game. A basketball game. What do you mean? Oh, Bobby, we were watching the basketball game. Oh, okay. That's really funny to me.

We were backstage in Virginia Beach and Arkansas was losing to Kentucky. And she was back there with us because she traveled with us that weekend. And I was like, hey, I'm going to go do meet and greet. I see on the other side. I said, but would you promise when I come back that Arkansas will be winning? We were down by like 15 points. And she was like, yeah, yeah, I promise. There was no way Arkansas was going to come back.

What she did is she wrote 100 on a piece of tape and put it on the, on the, TV screen over where the Arkansas score was. And I walked in and it was like Arkansas 100, Kentucky 47. And it was just laugh out loud that she put a piece of tape over the score on the screen. Clever and funny. And she promised you. Yeah. That's cute. So, and I didn't think about that. I'm like,

who does that? That's really funny. I would say about the fourth time I laughed out loud on our first date, I was like, oh yeah, she's super funny. Yeah. All right. And she also, we have a lot of the same sensibilities. Like, I don't curse. She doesn't curse. You know, I don't, we have a lot of that. Does she drink? Almost never.

Which is fine if she does I just didn't I think she had champagne after the Dancing with Stars Rat party that may be the only time I've seen her drink almost never

but she doesn't not drink Right Lunchbox has his hand down He's writing something down Go ahead Man I I don't know what to ask

Because every time I ask a question You never answer You're always like I'm not answering that So have you guys Got on vacation together Outside of work I know you've traveled for work

because you just said she was with you when you're doing raging idiots. But have you done... We haven't been on a vacation since... We will, I'm sure. But we haven't been on a vacation since we have said that we're together. I'm sure we will go on Minnie, hopefully. When you go to L.A., do you get a hotel room or you stay at her crib? I've not stayed at her place yet.

What? Yeah, that's two questions. By the way... I haven't, yeah, but I will. Well, they pay for my... So far, they paid for everything ahead of time. So does she stay at the hotel? What are you talking like that?

Oh, there we're talking about. Ray Moon, coming to you? Yeah, is she really close to her family? The guys are going to make fun of me, but... Yeah, extremely close to her family. I haven't met her brother. I had dinner with her brother.

Is that hard for you? What? That she's really close to her family. I think it's great. Okay. Oh, that's good. That's good. That's real good.

I feel like sometimes... I feel like, am I wrong in that sometimes is that hard for you? Nope. Okay. Not someone being close to their family. The hard thing is always... Did her family have money? Oh, I do have trouble with people that come from rich families.

No, she doesn't come from a rich family. She's not in entertainment. You know, there's other people questions. So, yeah, no. Yeah. We're wrapping up this segment, Morgan number two. Do you think if you wouldn't have gone to therapy that if she came along, you would have been in this relationship with her?

No. And it's not because of her or she's because of me. So you think if you hadn't worked on yourself, this wouldn't have worked? Right. I agree. I mean, yes. The answer is yes. I needed to go to that to look at me and go, you got work to do.

And I think the work I've been doing has put me in a good place to be open to something. So yes, therapy has been the base of me actually being open to finding someone. And then it did. How do you feel about that? I like that answer. Mike D, do you have anything you want to ask? Here's the last one. Mike D, ask something good.

Did she know you've never said I love you to another girlfriend before? That's a good question. I've never said that to her, but I've, I mean, well, I've never told. She's listening. So now she knows. Well, but I, I've had on an Instagram story before where someone had said something. Mm-hmm. I've never said it.

What's the question? Have you told her that you love? No. No. Stop. The question was, does she know that I've never said that to another girl? Right. Yeah.

But again, don't, don't you want to take my flower? That's funny. That's funny. How old is she? Here's the thing with that. Can I be real for a second? Why? Because here's the thing.

Go ahead. You have loved other people. Okay. You just haven't said it. Okay. Okay. I don't disagree with that. But technically that's all the question was because he doesn't say it.

Right. But Bobby said you didn't take my flower. Someone's going to take my flower of me saying it. I think you. That's so dumb. I think you've known love. Calling it your flowers. It's my flower.

You've known love before, but you've just. Here's what I want to know. What do you want to know? I want to know what love is. Come on. I want you to show me. Do you tell her that? Do you sing that to her?

No. Okay. I don't. The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Stories. Let's go over to our producer, Raimundo. Ramundo, what you got over there? The petition to make Kobe the new NBA logo has surpassed two million signatures.

And it's pretty easy for that first one. I take John Mayer continuum, just because John Mayer was the first artist that I ever felt like wrote things I was feeling

about the times I was feeling them because he's only a couple years older than I am. And I was like, yeah, I felt that. Oh, it's the first time I ever felt that. This album is my favorite album of all time. So this is slow dancing in a burning room. And then I got caught up on this, I answered that and they went Well, which one finished close in your mind? And I was like, oh That's a lot of albums. It was a lot. And I went with

Garth Brooks, no fences. Oh, come on. Unanswered prayers. So good. There's a bunch. This is the second record, his second record. That's almost one with the first record though because I love Pull that I down a second so I can't do two songs at the same time. I love

If tomorrow never could. That's upon the first record. But on the second record, I pick no fences, my second record. Thunder Rolls has no fences? Friends in low places? Friends and low places.

That's a good one to have for the rest of your life. So John Mayer continuum is number one and Garth Brooks, no fences is number two. Amy, I'm going to ask you the same question I was asked in an interview. If you get one album,

the rest of you... I'm coming to all you guys for your number one favorite in just a second. Amy, but you get one for the rest of your life. What is it? It's got to be George straight because, I mean, he's my favorite.

And I'll go with, Emerilow by Morning is my favorite song. So I pick that album, which is on straight from the heart. That's the album, 1982. That's probably one year old. Not probably you were. You can actually do the math on this one. I don't know which time of the year it came out. It could be one and a half.

But definitely some jams on there. Like, obviously I could listen to this on repeat forever, but also has like Marina del Rey and full-hearted memory. Like, it's got some good ones. So I could survive. Did you have a number two? I'm kind of throwing this at you here. Well, I mean, my number two favorite would have to be Taylor Swift. Ooh, which one?

Original. O.G. Taylor, 2006. Like, self-titled album. Is this from? Our song is on this. So is Tim McGrawl. So is Teardrops on my guitar. Is this her standing on the water, like in the dress, like on the puddle or whatever? Oh, yeah. You mean the cover? Yeah. She's like sitting there. It's her face and then there's water behind her. And her hair's all long and like frizzy and curly. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So, I mean, it's definitely a solid choice. All right, I'm coming to you guys for your number ones. Lunchbox, you get one album in the rest of your life. What is it? It's easy. Tina Turner, private dancer. This is your McDonald's album? No.

This is the one you got McDonald's? No, because that's greatest hits. Oh. Oh, that's true. We can't do greatest hits. What's the McDonald's have to do with it? That's where he found Tina Turner. Oh, really?

On a cassette tape. We were driving to Chicago and we stopped to McDonald's, and if you bought a combo meal, you could get her greatest hits, cassette for $3.99, and my mom bought it. And we played it all the way to Chicago, and I was like, this woman is amazing. She's unbelievable. And I fell in love with Tina right there.

Morgan, number two, what is your number one album of all time? Oh, it had to be Shania Twain. Come on over. Is it about this song, or is it a bunch of songs that record you like? I mean, that album has at least five or six songs that I listened to all the time growing up. And I just love Shania Twain. She's my favorite. Eddie, did you pick a Garthbrook's album or no? Well, that was my backup.

Oh, Garthbrook's last one. But my first has to be Pearl Jam. I mean, it goes back to when you were a kid, you know, and like Pearl Jam to me, like you spoke to me. Listen to that daughter. Don't call me, daughter. Did you go from Garth to Pearl Jam or Pearl Jam to Garth? No, no, no, no, no.

It was Garth. That was Garth all the way until about after Rope in the Wind. Then I went a little grunge. Grunge started coming into my life a little bit. This is your number one? Oh, yeah. And I heard his voice for the first time. I'm like, is that an old man?

No, it wasn't. Oh, Eddie Better? Yeah, so good. I saw a picture of them all together. Yeah, they look old, huh? I think they are old. Eddie was telling me about the keys player in the band. If you look at a picture of them now, there's one guy that's really old.

He looks like he's 80 years old. And apparently he wasn't in Pearl Jam forever, but Eddie Vedder was on an island somewhere. Yeah, Hawaii. And Eddie Vedder was just some dude named Eddie that was playing music with some old guy playing keys. And Eddie was like, hey, you should come play keys in my band. And the old guy's like, man, but I never played that key before. And so the guy just shows up and it's Pearl Jam. Oh, wow.

Yeah. He's on Pearl Jam. He's like, we're playing aren't? Like, what is this? That's crazy. Isn't that crazy? Mm-hmm. All right.

I said no live albums, no greatest hits. Yeah, that's hard. And nobody did that right, because I would have definitely... I didn't. I would have done greatest hits. Yeah, I think we all would, although John Mayer doesn't have a greatest hits. The guy's name is Boom, Gasper.

That's right. Yeah, the guy on Pearl Jam. Boom. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, good. All right. I think I want to go and stream some of you guys's music today. Just kidding.

Morning. I just wanted to call and ask about Eddie's reading plan. Okay. Eddie was given 15 minutes a night to read. Oh, I guess we're done, huh? Yeah. Did you do it? I didn't finish it. No, I have about 100 pages left.

Again, finishing the book wasn't important. Just reading 15 minutes a night to see if you liked reading by not putting some goal on you that you would never meet. No, absolutely 50 minutes and that was my minimum. There were some nights I'd go 30 minutes. Some nights I'd go an hour. But, I mean, I'd just get distracted easy is what I found out. I'm maybe below average reader as far as my speed goes. But I'm all in.

I'm going to finish this book. So yeah, this whole 50 Minutes a Day thing really helped. And the name of your book is? Just Mercy. And it's a movie now. So as soon as I finish the book, I'm going to go watch the movie. Don't cop out and go watch the movie before you finish that. I will not.

Okay. I won't do that. I'm proud of you, though. Thank you, man. And thanks for really encouraging me to do this because now I saw Amy had a couple books on her desk the other day. And I'm like, that looks interesting. I don't know what that is. But I wouldn't mind reading that.

So now I'm thinking as soon as this is over, I may read another book. Well, I think what you were going through is what most people go through when it comes to reading, it looks like it's a lot more than it has to be. Yeah. You go, oh, I just can't read, like, people to talk about reading books. I'm not fancy book reader. And so as long as you don't assign yourself to having to read a whole book in a couple days or a week that you just get in it a little by little, you just take a step instead

of running 10 miles your first, you know, workout. Yeah. You're actually able to get stuff accomplished. Yeah. Now, one thing I ran into, though, is I feel like some of these authors, or I don't know, this book I'm reading, even, he just, there are extra pages in the, there that I felt like I really didn't need to read to get... Yeah, tear them out.

So I would kind of just glance through it and I would be like, eh, not interested, not interested, not interested. Every reading style is different. Some people don't like to read the introduction. Some people don't like, just read what you want to read. Okay. Some people don't like to, me, I'll finish a book and all the stars. Like one of the books I'm reading right now, he's referencing things that people said, I'll go back and read all the notes too.

Oh, wow. But again, that's just my style. Yeah. If it's not your style, don't make yourself do it. I just felt if I was getting uninterested, I would skip it because I didn't want that to slow my pace down. Because I do want to finish the book. There is no such thing as a wrong reading style. That's it.

All right, good to know. You're doing it all extra anyway for your own good. The first time you find a book that you're just so interested in after you had read a long time, you're like, oh, I get it. I get why people say it. Yeah, I'm all in. And I'm glad you finished the challenge, just not the book. Correct. Let us know when you finished the book.

I will. I'll be this week, I bet. Dana, anything else you like to say? Yeah, I just wanted to let you know that I found you're reading your book. Oh, wow. Which book did you read? My first one or my second one? I read the second one first.

And then I got to the end and I'm like, there's another one. So I got the other book and I read it too. And I was the- Did you find the show? But how did you come across his book? Like, without knowing the show. Did somebody give it to you? I saw him on a morning show promoting his book.

And I'm like, I think that's the kid that did the billboard thing in Nashville. Oh, yeah, when I bought the billboards, trashed myself. Yeah. And I said, I got to read this book. Oh, well, thank you very much. And you liked it? Oh, I loved them both. I was so sad.

I'm ready for a new one. Well, who knows? Maybe in the next 30 days or so I can reveal something. All right. Well, Dana, thank you very much. I appreciate you calling in. Yeah. Have a great morning.

All right. See you later. my first book is about my life called bare bones. The second one is called fail until you don't, which is a motivational book. And I get a lot of questions from people because that book was a very practical look at success because I think a lot of people will put yoga quotes

or just a lot of meaningless stuff that feels good for a second, but then there's really nothing to grab onto. What my second book was, Fail Until You Don't is, it's like here's real practical advice. If you're not super talented, like Christina Aguilera

or somebody with just a natural, you know, like she's a great singer or a person who's a really natural runner. Like most of us don't have that. Most of us aren't so gifted in something that we're undeniable. Not there's not a lot of hard work that goes in there, but I don't have a talent that's undeniable. But a lot of people will say, how do I know that I'm supposed to keep doing something even though I keep failing at it?

And so what I spend a lot of time, at least a good passage of that last book doing is, if you continue to do something over and over and you're not hitting it, exactly right and you keep missing, but you still want to do it. And every time somebody tells you no, this isn't going to work, because I got rejected a lot, radio and TV, you still want to do it. Every time somebody tells you no, you're like, this is still my thing. I know what's my thing. If you get told no and you continue to want to do it, that's your thing. If you're told no 10,000 times, but you're like, no, no, this is my thing. That's your thing. As soon as you start to go, like, maybe it's not, then it's not anymore. Like, that's how you know where your passion is.

Like people can tell you know over and over again, but if you're so like, this is my thing, I know it. That's what you're supposed to chase. That's what it is. And so, yeah, we can be brought down. But as long as you know in your heart that that's what you want, even if you're told no 10,000 times, that's what you're supposed to be doing. I think I applied for 20, I forget the exact number, 25, 27 radio jobs and got one. One radio job.

I got turned down so many times. For radio, something at this point, like I'm in the real. Radio Hall of Fame, which is crazy. But like I'm in just for sake of the story and showing you, I was rejected so many times over and over and over again. And now, like, I'm in the highest thing that you can be. And not because I have some superior talent, but because I just didn't stop.

And even when I was, because I worked every format, I've done hip-hop and pop and a national sports show and alternative and country. And this is where I grew up, and this is where I wanted to go because it just felt the best. But I never quite fit in. ever anywhere I was. People said I didn't fit in here forever. And the greatest thing was since I never fit in and I never was, I never fell into someone's perfect definition of something. I was, I had,

I learned all these different things. But I was always good at at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, I, didn't come over here with the cowboy hat. And I was like, hey, people listen all kinds of music over here. But what it helped me was never fitting in actually made me more available to everyone all the time because nobody fits in. None of us fit in. Think about just life for a second. Do we ever feel like we fit in anywhere? No, no really. Never. We never feel like we fit in. And that's actually normal. It's made to feel your abnormal because that's what social media and TV and you're like, oh, the kid that doesn't fit in. In reality, none of us ever fit in. And so at the end. Oh yeah, I wrote a book. That's what that's about. So now I don't have to read it.

Thank you. Well, that's just like one page. You got to read the rest of it. That's just like one page. Anyway, if you want to check it out, it's called Fail Until You Don't. I appreciate that call. The latest from Nashville and Hollywood. Morgan number two, 30 second skinny. Luke Bryan compares the Super Bowl to Thanksgiving when it comes to food. Definitely Super Bowl is like the queso, the Frito-Lay scoops with the Rotel situation. What's the Black IP stuff to?

All of that. Just stuff you can just sit there and have a lot of sodium and then just, It's like Thanksgiving all over again. I would say the Super Bowl is less healthy than Thanksgiving. Probably near the same amount of food, but less healthy. Except I'm watching Super Bowl by myself, which is vegetables. That's how I maintain. Yeah, what else Morgan number two?

Kane Brown predicted who he thinks will win the Super Bowl and which team he's rooting for. But this year's Super Bowl, I'm going for the Chiefs at my home. That's my guy. And I'm going to say it's going to be a high-scoring Super Bowl. I'm going to say it's going to be 42 to, to, I'm going to say 28. Chiefs.

There you go. I've also picked Chiefs from the beginning. I'm rooting for them. Got a lot of money on it. Just kidding. I have no money on it anywhere. I don't need that to root. What else?

In Luke Combs says his music is inspired by Hank Williams, Jr. I love the beer drinking fun part of country music. I'll never get sick of having a honky-tonged beer drinking song. Like, I'm never going to be afraid to write or do that. I don't think he was ever afraid of doing that either. but he's also not afraid of showing the way he's feeling. I'm Morgan number two. That's your skinny.

It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Stay home, there's something good. This dude, Callum, was about to run a half marathon. He was leading up to it. He was like, how can I raise money for charity while I'm running? I can just ask people to donate. I'll probably get $500.

Big deal. So he said, you know what? For every runner I pass, I want people to donate. So he was the last runner to start. That's an half marathon. Yeah. And he passed so many runners. He raised over $5,000.

Wow. That's interesting because we often hear about, hey, if I do this many miles or if I finish the race, but how many people can I pass? That's good. That's good thinking. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about.

That was Tell Me Something Good. Bobid Bones Show. Boney up the day. This story comes to us from Scotland. A man was walking into a bank to robin. He had a pillowcase and a meat cleaver. He's like, all right, I'm going in. He puts the pillowcase over his head, walks in,

starts bumping in everything. He's like, oh man, I forgot to cut the eye holes out. So he had to take the pillowcase off. And he got about $2,000. But someone at the bank, one of the customers was like, that's my neighbor. And followed him home. I was like, yeah, sure is. My neighbor called police and the guy was arrested. Oh, man. What are the odds? Your neighbor's there. I also think, too, when you're really developing your plan to rob a bank, it's probably not a pillowcase. A meat cleaver. That's not the first thing the customer mine.

And then, yeah, you got to cut the holes. Don't you do a practice run with it through the house? And you can't walk through the house. I mean, you don't just take a pillowcase and just let it rip. You have to take a practice run. And obviously he didn't do that because you can't see. And I like that. He's just like, oh, crap, my eyes.

I can't see anything. Well, there you go. He got caught. I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. Here we go. Come on, Bobby. All right, time for Elder versus Millennial.

If there is sugar near me, I'll eat it, so what I try to do is keep sugar away from me. I know my strengths and my weaknesses. I've great willpower to keep things away from me. But once it gets close, I tend to make bad decisions. I think the best thing you can know is yourself, right? If you know yourself, you can work on yourself. And now let me tell you this. I saw this this morning.

A patch that keeps you from craving unhealthy foods. Because my weakness is sugar. Love it, but hate it. But I love it so much. I love cakes. I love ice cream. I love pie. I love little debby's, big debbies.

Yeah. I love everything. I love circuses. A professor of experimental psychology unveiled a wearable patch that is supposed to help curb cravings. Charles Spence, professor of experimental psychology at the University of Oxford, teamed up with plant-based food company strong roots to create a patch that when scratched produces a smell similar to that of what you really like. They're working with bacon right now specifically. The idea is that the human. mind is connected to our senses of taste and smell and certain smells can significantly reduce

food cravings. Would you wear a patch? Because you know it's doing something to your body. Would you wear that patch if it said it was going to curb cravings to bad food? I guess I would try it, but what else is it doing to me? Exactly. I worry about that. I would wear it.

I'd wear like three of them all over your body. He's like walk around scratching and smelling like bacon. Here's the thing. And I sometimes will start digging through my drawers at 9.30 at night just looking for a single world there's original or anything sweet. Like I have a problem.

And I'll be like, I really need something to sweet. And I'll go and I'll be like, Shirley, I forgot one. And I'm like digging under like in the junk drawer. I got one. And I'm like throwing stuff out. It's a thing. Yeah. People do that with cigarettes.

Yeah. Drugs. But I am a so I keep it out. But that's why. This would significantly change my life. And I would do that. Although male birth control don't know if I would do. I don't need to mess on my ovaries, you know?

This is a special. I'm like, just clarify right now that you know you don't have ovaries because you know the messages are going to start coming in. Bobby. I'm not sure that I don't. Most guys don't. I'm not sure that I don't. Some people don't know when you're joking. Let me recommend to you today once this show is over to check out the new Bobby.

It is a music podcast that I do from my house. And this guy named Paul D. Giovanni, he's written a bunch of country songs. But you may know him from back in the day. He was in a band called Boys Like Girls. He was the guitarist. And this is a song called The Great Escape. Yeah. So he was in that.

And he also wrote, oddly enough, Justin Moore's, the ones that didn't make it back home. So pretty diverse guy. And so I asked him about this song. And I was like, you know, let's talk about that one line that always sticks out to me. Green bean cassero. That's right. That's it. I get a lot of texts about that.

Yeah. Like, was that something, did you guys teeter around with that at all? Like, I don't know, do we leave this in? Did it feel quirky at the time? It was not at all. Like, it was just kind of like, all, you know, we've all kind of had some experiences, whether it be personal or from, through friends or whatever of, you know, something tragic happening like this.

So like what really happens in these small towns and how can we just make it just authentic? You know, and every time it comes on, we always go, Green bean casserole, grandma's recipe. It's automatic. Yeah. There was one other deal because do you remember this song? This is Love Drunk from Boys Like Girls. I used to be Love Drunk.

That one? Yeah. Well, I made a deal with them because they're not a band right now, but all they all live here. And I said, all right, you want to reunite? You do it on this show. We did that from end of 2005 and then we kind of, we didn't like say we're breaking up, but we just kind of stopped doing stuff around 2013-ish. When you guys decide it, you can come on my show.

Okay. And you can play on my show. and we'll make the big announcement if you want. Okay, that's helpful. We'll make that deal right here. I'm down. No, no, no, that's the right space. All right.

That's the right space. That's the right space. Love it. All right, check it out. The newest Bobbycast with Paul D. Giovanni. Paul Di Giovanni. There you go. Bobbycast on IHeart Radio

or wherever you listen to your podcast. Here's Amy's pile of stories. In college, did you go to every single class all the time? Yeah. Like attendance-wise? Yeah. I mean, unless I was sick. I didn't get sick often, but are you asking that I ever skip?

Yeah. No. Because in college, I didn't really see it as skipping. Like high school, if you didn't go to a class, you were skipping school. But college, I feel like you're more on your own. It's like an adult. Like you make a decision. Yeah, my decision as an adult was I need to go.

So I did do that. I felt two things. One, I don't really have this great talent. My talent is showing up and actually doing the work if I want the results. Some people are really smart and they could do what they do. I know where I'm good. So I went. And also I had friends that were dopes, and I would go and take notes and give them notes.

So I kind of felt like I needed to look out for them a little bit too. So my answer is yes, I went to class. Unless something happened. How do you feel about this? The University of Missouri is requiring all students to download a location trafficking app to curb truancy. So they want to monitor your attendance in every class and like where you are and where you're supposed to be. And it used to, it was created just for the athletes that were playing sports. the university, but now it's campus-wide and it's mandatory.

You're asking how I feel about it. Yeah, like college tracking you. Me personally, I will be okay with it because I'm going to go to class. And again, you're doing app-based tracking. You could always just turn your app on and give your phone to somebody. There's always... Oh, wow. Your brain always goes to like the crazy solution.

Well, the first thing that I do is try to unstring the sweater. And so I'm like, okay, how would I take this down? and I go, I would give my friend my code, and I would have them take my phone to class if I couldn't go, if I'm going to sleep in, right? It's just where the whole tracking thing is weird in general. I think I'm okay with it because we're basically being tracked anyway. It's probably in the short term going to help kids get to class

and make better decisions. They should go to class and inspire them to get there and not get in trouble. So I'm going to go, I'm 60% okay with it. Yeah. They said, look, we're not trying to take away students' freedom to not come to class, but if they're not in class, the professor is just going to know. Because sometimes classes are so big.

It like literally, I mean, for me, sometimes there's hundreds. My professor would never know if I was there or not. And, you know, you could beep in with a student in ID. Yeah. The tracking thing is the only thing that's a little bit weird, but we're being tracked anyway. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But now the school is watching you. Yeah. Okay, so there's a new scam that I want to warn you about for sure. And it's coming. For sure. For sure. It really is. She tells us about a lot of scams.

For sure, for sure. Go ahead. It was on CNN. Believe me now. Okay, go ahead. Okay. So people are getting text messages from quote unquote FedEx. Not really.

I've got this one. Have you? Have you? You got the text? Okay. And they want you to enter like your delivery preference and include like a tracking code. You click on it.

Then it takes you to a fake Amazon site and ask you to complete a survey. And some people are like, oh, I ordered something on Amazon. I better fill this out so I make sure and get my stuff from FedEx. But it's a scam. Like FedEx is not texting you anything. Hey, Bobby. Your FedEx package with tracking you. code Gb6 in the trek is ready for delivery.

Click your preferences. I got that. It looked legit. So I added in my social. I did my, I took a... No, you did not. I did not. But I didn't click it.

Never click something with a link in it. Period. On a phone. What else? And lastly, we'll end with kind of, you know, positive story from Chick-fil-A. A guy honked at a guy in line in Chick-fil-A, and the guy got mad that he honked,

so he flipped him off and that guy got mad, so he got out of his car and punched him in the face. Whoa. All in the Chick-fil-A line. Like, Chick-fil-A, that's the last place you expect this to go down. because everybody's so friendly there. Well, the people working there are. I assume everybody that eats there is.

Get in the way of my nuggets. See what happens. That's right. I feel like everybody that eats at Chick-fil-A can be pretty high. They're just hungry. You're hungry. Yeah. So, anyway, just kind of a little funny Chick-fil-A story from Florida, man. So control your anger.

It's not that big deal if somebody honks at you. There you go. All right. I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With Bobby.

Something good. A video on TikTok helped save a stranger's life after someone spotted something in the video. One of Alex Griswold's followers noticed a possible sign of skin cancer on him in the video. He has about a half a million followers on TikTok. Lizzie Wells, who is a melanoma survivor and medical student, was one who watched the video and said, hey, you need to get that mole checked out. By the way, she's just a viewer of the video. Whoa.

And so he did, and the mole was irregular. They removed it. and so he's like, I'm so thankful that somebody noticed this and told me to go do it because I wouldn't have noticed it myself. Isn't that crazy? It's crazy sometimes too when people will see someone going like the Today Show and a viewer will be like, oh, that doesn't look good on your cheek or on your shoulder and they get a checked out.

Yeah, crazy. Or Facebook. Sometimes people, I don't know, or somebody's eye was messed up. Yeah, or they can tell, like if your eye is doing something weird, if they have been exposed to that and they're trained to it, it's crazy to me. Yeah, so shout out to Lizzie. Wells, again, a melanoma survivor and medical student who saw it on TikTok and didn't just let it

go. Like, reached out and I was like, you have to get this checked out, did, and it was a good thing he did. That's what it's all about right there. That was Tell Me Something Good. Here we go. Come on, Bobby. It's been a real special week of Morning Cornies, and not that Amy doesn't nail it, but sometimes we give other people a shot. I thought Dustin Lynch,

he's done a great job so far, right? All right, here we go. Let's hit it. And now, the Morning Corny with Country Superstar, Justin Lynch. What's the best part about living in Switzerland? What's the best part about living in Switzerland? I don't know, but the flag's a big plus.

It's a plus sign. I don't know, but the flag is a big plus. Yeah, got it. On the Switzerland flags, it looks like a plus sign. Got it. Thank you. Thank you, I like Justin Lynch. That was the Morning Corny with country superstar, Dustin Lynch.

Hey, morning studio. Morning. Hey, I had a quick question for Amy. So me and my husband are adopting a said siblings. A little boy is five, the little girl is seven. and we're having a hard time connecting with the little girl. So I was wanted you to give me some ideas of how to bond with her. Wow, good question.

By the way, for those that are new to the show, Amy has two children and they are adopted from Hades. That's why she's asking you that. Right. Oh, gosh. And it is hard. And there's so much going on in their little heads, and you just have to be aware of that at all times. Like, my daughter in particular had, I called it, like, I just felt like she was constantly giving me the Hizman. and we're two years in.

The Heidman's is a push away, by the way, for those who don't know the sports reference. Oh, okay, yes. The sports are, like, I just felt like everything I did. She was just like, oh, not going to happen. Oh, not going to happen. And I just had to, I mean, you just have to be consistent and don't let it get you down.

Because a lot of times it would really weigh on me and I had to really grow out of that and not let it affect me. And it would send me to my closet and I would cry and just like, oh. But once I got stronger and realized, like it had nothing to do with me. had everything to do with what she was going through. I had, you know, empathy for her, and I just wanted to be there for her.

And, you know, when it comes to bonding, you're going to have to just dig into what she likes and spend time doing that, try to relate to her on that level. Let her know how much you love her and care for her and how safe she is with you. I mean, there's just a lot that she's nervous about and there could be abandonment issues. No, there is. There is. Abandonment disorder. I can guarantee you that.

So you just have to power through and don't stop. Like you'll connect. It may take a while. Again, I'm two years in and my daughter and I're just now starting to really connect. And I hope it only gets better. But you just got to stay the course. All right. Thank you so much.

I think my takeaway from you saying that is that it's frustrating at times, but know that if you hang in there, it gets better. Yes. And that you understand what she's going through. And it's common that she's not on an island feeling this by herself. No, and I, there are plenty of resources out there in books and podcasts and just, yeah, know that you're not alone because there's times where I felt like, what am I doing wrong? What is wrong with me or what is happening? And this, what have we, I'm not equipped for this.

What have, we made a mistake kind of a thing. And I realized those, I was not alone in those thoughts and you just have to, you just have to dig out of it. I feel like you're in a hole sometimes, but you'll get out and you'll, you'll make it to the other side. but I can't say specifically what you should do to bond with her because each kid is so different. But I would just say, just lean in to what she likes

and don't let her push you away. What is it that your daughter likes that you get in with her? Well, now we're, she really is into school. Like, it's great. Like, I love being able to do some homework with her, reading with her, doing Netflix with her. She loves little girl trips, like to Target. I mean, we don't even have to buy anything.

If she just gets to go with me without Stevenson, her little brother coming along, that's special to her. She loves to go to the movies. Like, you know. Do you watch her Asian YouTube videos with her? Oh, man. I probably should. What's it called anime?

It's called anime. She likes Japanese. Japanese YouTube videos. Oh, she loves Japanese anything. Like, she loves all the anime stuff. And I try and I'm like, oh, Stashera, I can't. But if I let her download one, she freaks out. It like makes her day.

She's like, oh my gosh, thank you, mom. So she loves to make bracelets. I'll sit down with her and make those. You do let her have a TikTok account. Oh, she loves TikTok. I love watching her do TikTok. You know what's annoying is she's better than me at TikTok? And she's 12.

What's happening here? It's kind of impressive. So yeah, you'll figure it out. And she's only seven. Like she's going to grow into this. Oh, her daughter's seven. Like she's got so much growing to do. and you're going to see her.

Like, I'm just thankful you're with her at seven. You're going to get to watch her grow into such a cute little girl. And it happened so fast. Kate, how do you feel about that? I feel pretty good. Thank you so much, Amy, for your opinion. Like you said, it was just a little upsetting that the connection isn't quite there yet. Because the little boy, her little brother, it was like an immediate connection.

Oh, yeah. Well, here's the thing. and my husband. Yeah. Same thing with us. Exact same thing with us. I mean, Stevenson was all over us.

Like, I love you. I mean, didn't even know what that meant, though. My daughter, she was old enough to know what that means, and she's not about to just start passing out,

I love you, as to people that she doesn't trust. Like, she doesn't know that you're going to be there. She doesn't know that, I mean, how does she know this is a secure thing? And for him,

like personalities are just different, but I would say we're in the same boat. Like Stevenson was all like, what up, Mom, love you. Hugs, hugs, hugs. And then, so she was like, you know, what am I doing here? Don't talk to me.

Okay, have a great day. And hope Amy's words made you feel, again, not so isolated and living a singular story that no one else identifies with because obviously she does and she found out that many others do. So many. In any of my mom friends that I've made friends with since adopting, they've had the exact same feelings. And I would say if you're in a podcast, listen to, they're just, research some. They're out there. Okay. Well, great. Thank you all so much.

And thank y'all what y'all do every day. Me and the kids that we're going to adopt, we actually listen to y'all every morning while they're getting ready for school. And they love listening to y'all. Bobby, the little boy that we have, he loves listening to you. And so much he's great. Yeah, he's a keeper. He's a good one. If he's already. Before you go, one person, I want to recommend, because I'm just not throwing podcasts out there, but in books, it would be research Karen Purvis, if you haven't already. Okay.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. All right. Kate, have a great day. All right, y'all too. It's time for the good news.

With Amy. Tell me something good. So Daddy Dolls was a company that was started by Trisha Dial, like, and a friend back in 2005 because Trisha's husband was deploying, and she wanted her kids to, like, know their dad. So she created a doll that was like, their dad. So it was daddy dolls. Well, 15 years later, it's expanded for all kinds of service mentors that have deployed, but she wants to right now gift these dolls to military families. And so companies are like donating daddydolls.com as the website and one real estate agent like donated

$5,000 and other people are matching it. And what that does is allow them to just use that money to make dolls to be able to donate the dolls and give them to families. They don't have to buy them. and it's really cool because it helps the children see their parents while they're gone, but in the shape of a doll. Yeah, so it looks kind of like a beanbag with a real picture on of the person. Yeah. It's like a visual of like, and they can use it because it's good for like talking. It's okay.

Like your dad's right here or your mom's right here. Yeah, and I was going to say, what about mommy dolls? Yeah. Are there, I'm assuming there are those two. I think it originated as daddy doll because the dad was her husband that was leaving, but they have grown. Well, I think it's great. And I think it's great that people are helping kids.

have some sort of contact with a parent, even though they're not there. And families. That's pretty good. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.

Shit. Bobby Boone, let me ask you about this, Amy, because I saw a daycare that they sent a baby home and they wanted to get a message to the mom. So they wrote on the child's tummy that the mom needed to send diapers. What do you think about that?

A Florida mother was shocked to find her young son's daycare had written on his stomach. black ink. Oh my gosh. To remind her to bring more diapers. Yeah. I mean, what I think about it is something, like that's not cool at all. Like if I, if I own that daycare or maybe, who knows, maybe he's the owner that did it, but it's not cool. You shouldn't do it. And if I was the owner and one of my employees did it, they would be in trouble. Lunchbox, if your baby came home and had it written on them.

Oh, I'd own the daycare. I mean, there would be a lawsuit. You can't do that. And what happened is they sent home a notice about, oh, you know, you need to bring more diapers, but the lady didn't see it in the diaper bag. And so the next day, the teacher wrote, you need more diapers on his stomach. Sorry, you would be getting sued. I don't know that you would win that. You can sue for anything.

I guess, yeah. Listen, what's the, I'm going to be devil's advocate for a second. You know, they used to pin notes to kids to get that home to school. Okay, but pending a note to a baby and then writing on it's something very different. I think it's funny. I mean, it doesn't hurt. It's not smart. You wouldn't want, Lobby,

Be the owner of the daycare. Well, if I'm not remember to bring it, sending diapers, you know, it's wrong. It's wrong. But I'm laughing. And they just rode on them with a marker. You know. But she scrubbed like three times and couldn't get the marker off.

I didn't know that part. Eddie, what about you? You have four boys. You ain't doing that to my kids. Yeah, it's not. So I'm obviously in the wrong. Listen, I'm open ears. I'm open mind.

I don't have any kids. So I say this is someone doesn't have kids. Right. I know I'm in the wrong, but it's funny. Yeah, when it's your kid, you don't laugh about that stuff. And then you wonder about other choices that your employees are making. That's a great point.

Because that's just not, like, who would think to do that? I mean, maybe you would think jokingly, well, if the mom's not going to see the note, might as well write it on the baby. But there's a difference in thinking it and then doing it. Or just when the mom comes in and say, hey, you need diapers. Oh, communication. That would be pretty easy. Like, I would write stuff on your arm, Amy, so you could remember stuff.

I'm an adult and you're letting, and I'm being like, yes, go ahead and write it on me so that I don't forget. That's totally different than the baby. You're right. I know you're right. It's to me, though, I go, I don't know that I'm mind that. Just remind me. But you're right. You're all right. I'm wrong. It's just still funny to me. Let us know when you have kids. Yeah. I will. Did you see both Bella twins were pregnant? Oh, at the same time? Yeah. Did you know that? Because one of them, the more famous one is dating Artem who was on Dancing with Stars. I know him. And I just saw on Instagram that she was pregnant. I'd be yesterday. Oh, and the other one is with John Cena. No, no, no, that was with John Cena.

Oh. The other one's like married and has kids already. Okay. But yeah, they're both pregnant and apparently going to have a baby like a week apart. That's great. Yeah. Here's the interesting story. People to kick off your Facebook friends.

And I've been kick. I don't use my Facebook personal, but I have like, I may post twice a year. But I've been eliminating people slowly. Then they just don't know them. And then I get friend requests because I have it. You can only request me as a friend if I'm connected to a friend already because my Facebook private page is private because I don't use it. So I've been eliminating people. Every day I'll go and do 10.

10 that I don't know. Are you ready? Ready. Number one, anyone from junior high or high school that you don't actually remember? Eliminate them? Take them off. I like to see what they're doing.

But you don't know them. If you don't remember them, you actually don't even know that they're from junior high. The random person who pops up in every Facebook conversation and is rude to other commenters. The practical stranger who stalks your page, who likes your page all the time,

but you really don't know them? the person who is really into sharing their racist, homophobic, or sexist views. Oh, yeah. I got a lot of those. I did. When I see it, I don't mute them, they're gone immediately. Or people that are overly political for the sake of just screaming it, not for the sake of explaining why it's important to them.

Or people that post memes that are factually inaccurate. I get rid of that. I don't need that toxicity. But also, I don't get on Facebook that much. Your ex-as family members. It's probably a good thing. Yeah. And the person you went on one date with.

Oh. They say eliminate all those from Facebook. But I am in a clean-up situation right now. I wonder how many... Again, go to the show Facebook page. We've almost got a million followers. And... Are we still friends?

On Facebook? You got rid of me. Sorry, dude, you didn't make the cut. On my private Facebook page, I have... How many friends are at? And again, I don't even recognize some of these people. And get rid of them. It's time to clean up.

We've all gotten older. I have... Oh, you mean like we look different? 461 friends on Facebook. I think it's probably like 700 until about a couple months ago. Wow. I'm dropping them. It's a good purge.

Basically, it just, just people I'm related to. 465 people from college. So I'm just going to have on here. There's just some people in radio that I don't, that I just, I tell you who's been doing a really cool thing on radio is this guy named Matt Jones, who I know a little bit. He does Kentucky sports radio. And he has been, you're talking about a guy who, It's probably, I'm just going from what I think, I think he's a Republican, but he goes to, he's been in Iowa and he's going to every Democratic candidate and spending time with them and doing a podcast on him. Oh, with them.

To learn more? Like getting to know them. Yeah. Okay. He's like, it's just good content. It's a good show. And he's not overly bashing or not bashing. He's just going to all the rallies and then commenting on it and being like, well, this person talked too long.

They're beginning speaker. It's just really funny. I always like people that are doing really cool new things. So, yeah, Matt Jones, who does KSR, Kentucky Sports Radio, him and I talk a little bit, but he's really doing some cool stuff for radio. I have a few friends that I get quite inspired by. Only a few.

Like Charlemagne the God and I talk a lot. Like I'm always curious to where he's going, because he's like me, we're looking for new ways, not just talk on broadcast radio. Like, what else can we do to kind of talk to people? Where can we go? Where can we sit? and people will come and sit with us and talk and learn.

Oh, he's in the R. Kelly documentary. Charlemagne is? He is. Matt Jones is one. He does things different. Clay Travis. Oh, yeah. And all my people that I like to listen, they're all polarizing.

But they have things to say, and that's what I like. Things to say. I don't have to agree with you. As long as you have an opinion and you're not coming from a malicious place with that opinion, like you're not just out to hurt somebody, we shouldn't always agree with people. So who do you look at? Who do you look to?

I mean, Howard Stern's still a big influence to me. Always has been. I can't talk to him. I've never had a mentor forever in work in any way because I've always felt I was doing things that nobody else was doing. But in the people that were doing them, I couldn't get a hold of.

Like Howard Stern or David Levin wouldn't answer my calls. And people in radio, I was always like, not better or worse, but I was always doing different things than they were. Like I had a different goal in mind with radio, whatever that is. And so I never had a mentor in my career. But I would love to be able to text Howard Stern. I'd be like, hey, what did you do in this situation when the whole world was against you?

But I didn't have that. But now I have like contemporaries that I kind of talk with a little bit. But I would like to have a mentor career-wise. Yeah. Well, I don't, I feel like, I mean, I don't know that I have a mentor career-wise besides you. Career-wise, maybe. But you're doing other things now. Yeah.

You have really, what I'm really excited and proud of you for is that you have taken an initiative to expand out. First, your podcast is massive, four things with Amy Brown. Your philanthropy, like you speak. Like, that's a thing. So someone outside of that that I just look up to, but there's no way I ever talk to her or anything. Is there anybody that you talk to, though? I guess this is my question. Like, do you have a mentor?

No. No, I mean, there's women within our company that I talk to that I really respect and get. advice from so that but not that not that people would know what about like the the charity people that you talk with who's the girl from Austin that is the podcast

oh well there's Jamie Ivy shoemaker oh Jen Hatmaker that's it yeah so close yeah and like the girl that's on my podcast this week Jenny Allen she's very she's in that crowd there's a lot of women that I like up to that I can go to for

advice and even yeah if I needed so I have them I'll give you plenty of radio vows. You just stick with me, kid. Right, they're not in the... I get you there. You just stick with me. Get on my hip on that part.

Okay. But, no, I'm really proud of you. Killing it. Well, thank you. I'm proud of you. But my person that I look up to that I don't know is Robin Roberts. Well, I do know her. I know you do.

And I always like throw it out there. And Bobby's like... Anyway, next time if you go on Good Morning America, I'll go with you. You can. I'll be chill. No, you won't, but you can go. No, no. I'll be.

I saw Reese Witherspoon walk out of a hallway. Matt chill. You didn't see you. I told you about it. No, no, no. Wait, whatever it was. I felt it. I don't know.

Maybe it was like a twin. When she does that. I know. I know. I didn't know I ever seen Reese Wether's being in person. I didn't know how I would handle myself. I thought it would be way more chill. You learned a lot about yourself in that situation.

But I wasn't. I didn't. And you did what? I couldn't talk. And I just gave her a hug. And then I let her on her way. And it was awesome. But I feel like if,

With Robin, trust me, I'd be like, I got this. She's really cool. I just know her through war. I met her like four or five times. She also read my second book and was like, it was so good. And I was like, what was? She was like, you're a book. What book?

I just was ready for her to fall off of it and be like, oh, you're not who I thought you were. But yeah.

The theme is songs on the radio right now.

Yep. Okay. We're just going to hear one second of a song. How many do we have here? We got six. Okay. Do we want to play elimination style? No.

At least we got the artist right. Okay, here we go. Next song. Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh, gotta hit it again. Yeah, Eddie, you got it. What? Because it goes. Bada da-da-dun-dun-dan-dun-dun.

I'm in. Do you want it again, guys? Yes, please. All right. Okay. It's one second of that song. Oh, you can't do that. Can't play this.

You all know this? I'm on the board. Come on, Eddie, you're joking. I'm not. Play it again. They tried this little shady tactic of going don't play it again. When we play it every time multiple times, we can knuckleheads. Rayman have played again? Yeah, I'm in.

Pump me up. Oh, by who would you guess? I was going to guess Keith Urban. Pump me up by Keith Urban. Yeah. Amy? 10,000 hours. Dang it.

Eddie? 10,000 hours. Yeah, that's it. I didn't hear that. Here's the beginning of... Like it when I cook your food. Do you like it when I dance with another dude? I don't know what they say.

That could work, though. Did you get your middle name from your grandma? These are the hard ones. Score right now, Bobby 4, Amy 2, Eddie 2, lunchbox. So far you don't exist. You're not in the stat sheet yet. That's all right. All right.

Amy had two. Lunchmock's had zero. Yeah, you're like, no, no, no, don't get that wrong. All right. And since I won, oh, yo, unbelievable. Oh. Dang. Damn.

You know, and here's the thing. I may have won this game, but I just want to say, Yo, unbelievable. Oh. Fun. Nice work, man. Thank you very much. The Bobby Bone Show.

let's open up the mailbag here as we end the show. Bobby's Mailbag. Hey, good morning, studio. I needed some advice on a situation I have going on with my brother. He's been going through a bit of a hard time. He's been crashing on my couch after being thrown out of his house because of a big fight with his wife. I told him my place is always open,

but I didn't expect him to stay this long. He's been here for almost a month with no signs as of now that they're going to get back together anytime soon. It's just becoming a lot to have him around on the couch, now in a house with the two kids. My question is, how much goes by until you tell a family member that they have to find another place to stay?

Would appreciate any advice you have? Amy, to you. That's hard. I don't think I would ever be able to tell my sister she has to find somewhere else to stay. That's the answer. Yeah, she would always be welcome, but I get to where it could be annoying.

but I know my sister and she would be a great house guest. Your brother may not be. So you probably should just start the conversation of do you have a plan? Like where are we going from here? What's going to happen? Even if you don't work it out with your wife, like what's your plan? You're an adult. Right?

I mean, that's your answer. Okay, what about you? I would, again, sensitive, right? Yes, very. I would say, hey, I love you. What can I do to help you get back on your feet? like what can I do to help you because I know you don't like being on this couch like I know you we grew up together I know you're here and I'm so happy that you're here and happy we can help

and sometime I'm going to need help too and I know you're going to be there for me so what I want to do is help you get out of here like what can I do to help you that way it's a nudge but it's a positive nudge and everything you've said feels good they don't feel like they're being kicked out. And it's also, let me help you. Let's set a goal like the next month or so. We get you, you're not going to be able to go get out tomorrow. Right. In a loving way. You could, but you're not going to. What if the answer is, oh, no, no, you, you've already helped me enough. Let's walk through this. Let's let's roll play this. Eddie, you're on my couch. By the way, been here. We've been in this scenario before. Yeah, yeah. Say, hey.

Yeah, what's up, man? Listen, you know I love you. Yeah. We've been brothers for ever. That's right. And I know that for you, who wants to sleep on a couch? Kids are always running around. I hate that you have to, you know, be waking up at 6 o'clock in the morning when they're going to school. I know that you have big plans. I'm here for you for whatever you decide what you want to do. Yeah. Thank you, man. I appreciate that. And you've helped me a bunch already. This is great. So my question to you is, what can I do to help you? Because I know, again, you've been on the couch for so long. Let's go ahead and look at your next step. What can I do to help you get back on? on your feet. No, I think you've already helped me enough. This is great. And I love helping out

with the kids and everything. I mean, Bones, I see myself staying here for as long as I need to. I mean, this is, I like living here. Thank you. You're welcome very much because you're my brother. I love you. Yeah. This is great. And your house is amazing. But my question to you is, at what point do you think you either need to talk to your wife and decide what you're going to do or get a place. Like, what point do you foresee that happened? Yeah, we haven't thought about that. Well, it's probably time to think. Oh. Yeah. And I turn. That's worse possible situation there. Right, to where the person's just like not getting the hint.

Yeah, I would say, I would encourage my way because it's a very positive way. Like, you stay as long as you want. But what is your goal? And then let me help you achieve that goal. Because our goal is not going to be to stay here forever. Yeah. No one's goal is to remain. It doesn't matter the situation, period.

No one's goal is, my goal is, I'm good. We don't want to get any better. That would be my situation. I would say that. It's an interesting scenario. So I say Hunter that you go, hey, I want to help you. Whenever you're ready to be helped, what is your goal here? If it's to get back your wife, if it's a month, if it's, at least have some clarity on when he's going to go.

And then help him, and then help him. Because he would help you. That's what I would say. How you feel about that? I like it. I think it sounds good. And you kind of remind them like you, it's a reverse way of saying. You say, I know you don't want to be here on the couch.

And it's also like, I know you would help me because I'm going to have crap help to me and I'm going to need your help too. Right. Because we have each other. Sliding that in there is kind of smart. Yeah. I know you don't. I know you don't want to live. Who wants to be on a couch?

It's stupid. You don't have enough to extend your legs. You can't fart all the time. Okay, Morgan number two, if someone wants to send in an email, what do they do? Mailbag at Bobbybones.com. There you go. Mailbag at Bobbybones.com. Thank you very much.

And that's the mailbag. And that was Bobby's Mailbag. Amy, what's up today? Oh, man. Just normal day for me. I think I have a workout today, which will be good. Doing? weights.

Which I don't. Is your house? Yeah, my house. And it waits. a little weights at your house? Mm-hmm. Yeah. I have a pull-up bar too. I can do... One of those you put on the door? It's hanging on the wall in the garage and like I pull up and I can do five assisted. Assisted. What do you have?

So shooting American Idol today. My camera time is noon. Mm-hmm. So noon, I have food at five, back to filming at six, a break at 7.30, film with contestants at 8.30, and then wrap at 10 o'clock. night and then wake up and do the show again tomorrow. The radio show and then American Idol. But they're really great about letting me do the radio show. That's awesome. And then I go and do tape for 12 hours or so. You just, you always shooting the whole time or what do you do?

Absolutely. There's no, it took 12 hours to get to Hawaii. I do the radio show. I tape, I go to sleep. I do the radio show, I tape, I go to sleep, I get up and I fly back. So the Hawaii thing, for me, it's just a far trip because I'm just shooting. We're outside. We're at a nice resort, but again, I'm working the whole time.

But you know what? It's the life I chose. Yep. That's it. Thank you guys. We'll see you tomorrow. Don't forget Kane Brown on the show tomorrow. The Friday morning dance party on the show tomorrow. And also a spinoff. Fun Fact Friday. Yes. We're doing that.

All right. Thank you. Have a good day. See? Bobby Bones. All right. If you have ever dealt with a traditional home security company, you know the drill.
