So thank you for that. Morning, studio. Morning. Why don't we go over first and talk to Taylor, who is in Tampa, Florida. Taylor, good morning. Welcome to the show.

Hi. What's going on? Morning. Hey. Hi, this is my first time calling, so I'm super excited. All right, all right. We got the first time over here.

All right. Well, I just wanted to say I am so in love with your show. I love everything that you guys stand for and do. I love how close you guys are. I've been listening for a couple years now, and I really wanted to say how much I appreciate Amy for what she did in the fight she went through for her kids, and now listening to her stories and following her on Instagram with her kids and stuff is super fun for me to watch. I work with kids with autism, and I tell them your morning corny every morning,

and they love it. So I just wanted to say I appreciate y'all and I listen to you every single morning and thank you for what y'all do. Thank you very much. It's a very nice call. Actually, this is an actor. Thank you. We paid her to call in.

No, I'm just kidding. Hey, Taylor, thank you. Have a great morning. Yeah, you too, guys. Bye. All right. Let's see. An unnamed man in Omaha, Nebraska has found his way out the hard way that his backyard hot tub violates local community standards. He was in it naked

and his neighbors could see. But here's the thing. I don't think he should get in trouble. I think they should say, hey, you can't do that anymore because we can see. Okay. Because he's not doing it to purposefully show the goods. And who doesn't want to get a hot tub naked?

So no one's warned him, though. They just... Police stopped by. He said, hey, being naked in your hot tub is not a good thing to do, considering that the neighbors can catch a view. And so not going down without a fight. He said, hey, what's the law? He said, go find a real crime.

And then capped it off by proudly proclaiming it was all BS. After a couple more complaints, police tried to pop him by giving him a citation, but he wasn't home. So he's still on the run. He's on the lamb for being naked in his backyard. But I don't think he's being naked for the sake of being naked so people see him. Who doesn't want to have a hot tub to get naked in it? Really?

That's a great point. I've never been naked in the hot tub. I would like to. I don't want to be. Oh, that's fun. He could wear shorts into the hot tub, remove them to enjoy his... Oh, I think they're seeing them in the hot tub, right? He's somebody's climbing in.

Because you turn the bubbles on, you can't say anything. Yeah, nothing. Right. Nothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's why people do it. Well, if he's butt-necked walking through the backyard, that's different. Yeah, that's a little different.

Yeah. Amy comes in this morning and a little bit of drama with your dad last night, huh? Oh, well, yeah, he fell again. Oh, no. I know. But this time, last time he fell going to the bathroom, which made sense in the middle of the night. But he fell into the shower and that was bad. dad, they take him to the hospital because when elderly people fall, it's really can be dangerous.

So this time, though, he woke up in the middle of the night, totally disoriented, didn't know where he was, and decided that his truck needed the oil changed. Well, he doesn't drive anymore. He doesn't have a truck, but he was leaving. He was in the hallway of his assisted living place. And then got to the elevator and was like, oh, I forgot my car keys, which he doesn't have any. And when he turned around to get the keys, he tried. tripped and said he fell flat on his face and had to get stitches all on his face and he's all

wrapped up. I mean, he looks like he got in a pretty big fight. But he's in good spirits and he remembers. You sure they're going to have an old man fight club there? Yeah. He can't talk about it. Maybe, but. What time did they call you? Four in the morning. Well, a little bit before then. And I guess that it probably happened around three. But they had to call me, my husband. Then my sister, they call her in Colorado, because we weren't, nobody was, I was like, what, this is his number? I would just think it's one of those warranty calls I get nine times a day. What you're like, okay, I should answer this.

I don't know that number, it seems important. It's an area code I don't know. I'm like, hello? Hi, we're calling about your warranty. Yeah, I thought, man, they're getting really early with these calls, but turns out that's what it was. And, yeah, he's in the yard. Is he going to be okay? Yeah, he's going to be okay.

but now since he went to a hospital, he may have to quarantine for 14 days. That's what they did to him last time. And he's been able to come to our house every Sunday, which has been the highlight of the last month or so because of coronavirus. So I don't know. I'm going to try to be like, can I get him a coronavirus test?

But he's okay. Yeah, he's going to be fine. Okay. That stinks, though. I need him to not do that anymore. Because when I fall now and I just turn 40, it hurts for a couple days. He's how old?

79. Double that. Yeah. That's a big deal. If I sore for 2021. It's the good news countdown. Counting down the biggest good news stories across the lab. Welcome back, friends.

You're going to love them. They're quick and they're going to make you feel good. Let's go. Number five. A guy named Bob from the tiny town of Parma, Michigan, served nearly six years in prison for robbery. His ex-girlfriend's parents never gave up on him, visiting regularly

and helping him after his release. They encouraged him to pursue higher education. So last November, Bob, who had served six years in prison, was sworn in as a lawyer by the same judge that sentenced him. How crazy is that? That's an awesome story. Number four! Seven-year-old

Kavanaugh Bell was bullied in school and decided to channel that energy into spreading positivity, so he started giving back to his community. He created the charity with his own money. He began handing out packages filled with toiletries and food for the elderly in his neighborhood until now it is a full-blown pantry.

What started as just him passing it out became so big that now it is a what they call brick and mortar pantry where people can actually go and get food. Love that. Number three. Oregon hospitals are now allowing parents to wear clear plastic face masks

when they visit newborns in intensive care. They did it so the babies can see their full face, not just their eyes. Research shows it's important for early development and bonding. Something that I would have never thought of. No, not at all. But good for them for doing it.

Number two. There was not a dry eye in sight when this little boy was reunited with his grandpa after a year apart. Aidan burst into tears when he saw his grandpa Greg outside their home in Owensboro, Kentucky on September 19th. Buddy. You told us to come see you, buddy. Coronavirus kept him apart. Man. Finally got to see him.

His mom said I was actually crying while recording the video. I did not expect my son's reaction, so it touched my heart. Aiden then went and stayed at the hotel with the grandparents for a couple of days to spend more precious time with them. Man, hearing that pure emotion from that kid? Yeah. That is powerful. Number one. Caleb Anderson graduated from high school at age 11 and commenced classes at Chattahoochee Technical College last year.

Again, 11 years old. He was accepted to Mensa at age 3 and is set to make history as the youngest person to study aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech. Here he is being interviewed on CBS talking about how he's different than most kids. The kids there, they kind of look down on me or they treated me like I was an anomaly. Does it ever occur to you, you know what? I'm looking to college and I'm 12 years old. This is my life. This is how I am. And I've been living this way my whole life. That's a great, 11 years old. Future millionaire right there.

But isn't he? Oh, yeah. Right? Yeah. Make fun of him now. Yeah, all the kids that are picking on him now. Get ready to get your checks from them later in life. That was the Good News Countdown.

On with us right now is Emma Klein, who has a new song out called Butterflies. Emma, how you doing? Good, Bobby. How are you? I'm real good. You know, I loved it when you put out new music. It had been a minute. So tell me about this song. How did it all come together?

Yeah. So actually, it happens right after American Idol stopped filming. I had just kind of ended a relationship before America and I, and then I got coffee with the guy right after it ended. And I just wrote the song immediately afterwards. So it just happened really naturally. I never thought that it'd be a song I'd put out. But I kept playing it at your shows when I was opening for you. And people would direct message me after every show being like, when are you releasing butterflies?

So finally, I was like, all right, I guess I got to release this. So now it's out for the world. Yeah, and it's about not getting butterflies anymore, right? Yeah, yeah. It was like, and it's not supposed to be a petty thing. It's more like I have seen you for the first time after a long time. I was really nervous. I was going to have all these feelings, and they're just kind of gone,

and I'm really happy about that. And like no hard feelings. It's just closure, which is really nice. I met Emma when she was on American Idol. I'm a mentor for American Idol, and we were in Hawaii. and I told Emma, hey, you're really good. I can't believe they didn't put you through. I haven't went to Luke Bryan and said,

I cannot believe you did not put her through. And so I said, hey, afterward, why don't you come on the road? And I'm doing comedy, you can open up. And she would go out and just crush audiences in good ways and bad ways. I mean, the bad ways that she made them all want to cry, then I got out there trying to be funny. And I'm like, hey, let's go.

Lift it up a little bit. Come on. And so what advice would you give people if they're going to compete on American Idol and they're trying to get in now? I would just say be yourself totally through and through. The whole process for me was so beyond anything I could have controlled. I did my best every round, but at the same time, I just stayed really true to myself,

and I think that's what's gotten me where I am. I think that's what helped me get where I was with you on tour. So, yeah, just stay true to yourself, and don't be afraid to say no, and also say yes to really awesome opportunities. Like, saying yes to going on the road with you was the best thing I ever did. debut EP Love Me Too is December 4th. We're going to play this song now. Thank you.

Thanks, Bobby. Bye. You're welcome. Bye. Congrats, Caitlin and Bobby. Thank you. Bye. Bye.

To the winner, I would like to show my appreciation for the commitment and follow-through that you have shown during the last month.

You will get $100 in cash. Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. I want this to be something you guys strive for. I'm ready for it. So I'll Venmo you the $100 bucks as soon as it's over. You'll get it.

Good. You will also get to do any segment you want. want on a show this week. Oh, wow. Woo! No matter what the segment is. What do you want to do? Talk about your greatest memories from second grade.

Okay. You just won employer the month, baby. I like that. The stage is yours. So, I value you all. Today seems like a great day to let you know how much your hard work and dedication mean to me. You go above and beyond. Almost all of you.

And I just want to say thanks and recognize you. There will be one winner. However, everyone has come in. with a 22nd speech on what they would have said if they won. The first person that didn't win is... Oh, you're eliminating someone, all right. Amy. Oh.

Amy, I'm sorry. It's okay. I knew you didn't feel like this has been your month. No. So I'm going to go ahead and let you give your speech. You didn't win, but what would you have said? My speech was, thank you to everyone on the show for doing subpar work this month.

Because that would be the only way I would have won this award, of course. I did nothing special. In fact, probably wasn't fully present like I needed to be. So that means everyone else here sucked towards the night. Oh, nice, nice. That had been a great speech. Yeah. That was a great speech.

That was what I had prepared. That had been a great speech. I know most people thought I went to Amy as the winner, but that's why I went to her first that she wasn't. Okay. But you are A plus in my mind always. Thank you. Okay. But not employee of the month material.

Not employee the month right now, not this month. Next up, eliminated. Maybe the year. That's true. Eliminated from Employee of the Month. Utility Hillary. Does she have a speech? Does she even know this bit's going on?

Hillary, speech time. Does she think she won? She's running up to the microphone. Hey, Hillary. She's got it on her phone. Here we go. I'm going to hand her one. Tell her she didn't win, though.

Unfortunately, you didn't win. Okay, let's hear it. Thank you for choosing me to be the employee of the month. I will take this win and continue to work harder and get better. I would like to thank Bobby for taking a chance on me and hiring me and keeping me around. Thank you to my family for being my number one supporters. And to my coworkers, thank you. I would not be the employee or person I am today without you all.

May we all strive to be better employees every day. Nice. Come on. May we all. I love it. That's so good. Good words. Yeah.

The next person eliminated. Ramundo. Oh, wow. Oh, no. I thought he was in the running for sure. You know I got him. Is that day of no pressure? from the wedding. All right, Ray. Go ahead, Ray.

My headphones are falling apart. Garth Brooks said it the other day, and listeners around the world tweeted me, why was Ray Mundo at work the day after his wedding? I asked myself the exact same question, and I answered it myself, because I care about the listeners, and I'm not afraid of hard work. In conclusion, I don't want a car. I don't want gold. All I ask is that you give me a trophy to hold. Yeah.

Okay, that would have a. That's good. I'd probably cried. I'd probably cried after that one. All right. Next up, we are in the middle of awarding the first ever employee of the month here at the Bobby Bone Show. 100 bucks in cash and any segment they won. The next person eliminated is Morgan number two.

Oh, man. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. He's down the us too. Yeah, I know, dude. I know. Well, there's also Mike D. Scooba Steve and phone screen are ads.

Oh, that's true. That's true. Let's relax. Yeah. I didn't count them. Oops. It's down to us, too. No.

Morgan, you have about 20 seconds. Well, I would have just said, thank you so much to Bobby for the award and also for the ability to have a job during the pandemic because I think that's pretty cool still. And to my parents who raised me to be really hardworking and also social media has been a really tough place, but the studio has been a happy place. So I'm very proud to be here. That's a great story. That's so good.

The next person who didn't win. Oops, it's not us. It's phone screener Abby. Abby, I'm sorry. Abby, I'm sorry. Give you her speech if you would have won. Here she is. Phone screener Abby,

who answers every call when you call into the studio. Go ahead, Abby. That's me. First off, yes, Bobby, thank you. I obviously wouldn't be here without you. And my parents for supporting me and everything I do. And most of all the callers, of course, because, yes, I would not be here at all without them.

So keep calling in and making our show amazing. There she is. Not the winner, though. Not the winner, though. Amy, who do you think wins? Eddie, Lunchbox, Mike D, or Scoobo Steve? Okay, I have two people that I think fall into this. I mean, Mike D is always grinding.

But I feel like Scooba Steve has come through clutch with interviews and is here all the time. And he's working behind the scenes to make the show awesome. But Lunchbox has been killing it lately with the prank calls and even going to the ghost house. So for me, the only person you're not saying has a chance is Eddie.

And that's right. Eddie's now eliminated. Eddie. Yes, right. I mean, you know a hard worker when you see one. Eddie, I'm sorry.

Wow. Wow, wow, wow. You are not employee of the month, Eddie. Go ahead. So mine's short and sweet. This one goes out to all you people out there

that have been struck by COVID like me. We made it through COVID. Yeah, and I figured. 40 days off. That's right. You were off like a year. And I figured

that I was going to be employer the month when I got COVID and I said, no, no, no, I'm not going to stay home and not work. I worked every single day while I was stuck in my room quarantining. Thank you so much for this award, Bones. I love you, dude. Thank you for this award. I'm going to celebrate all night, baby.

Woo! I love all the speeches are thanking me when you didn't win. I feel good. It makes me feel good. That's what I would have said. Three people remain. Mike D. Please come up to the microphone.

Oh, man. Don't read my speech, fool. Mike D. you are not the employee yeah final two let's go let's go let's go

oh yeah you're up you're up read your speech man I'm honored I can't believe I beat everyone else out I'd like to thank my fellow co-workers we've all worked very hard and in a way we're all winners but in a more accurate way I am the winner

I'd also like to thank my fiance for supporting me in my career and Bobby for keeping me employed for another month. Love it. There he is. Not the winner. Not the winner. However, I do lean on Mike constantly. But this month, just someone stood out. Man, I'm about to go crazy. Someone was a slight head over the other person's slight head.

Both of you were head and shoulders above the rest. The last two remaining are scuba Stephen Lunchbox. Man, I can't even look at Bobby. I'm so nervous. Woo! Hey, scuba, don't get your feelings hurt, bro. You do a good job. Amy, who do you think wins? I don't know.

It's a toss up. It's such a toss up. Eddie? Oh, scuba. Hands down. No, no, no. Not hands down. He asked me.

Hands down. Absolutely. How can you say hands down? Literally, Bones says Jimmy Rogers and Scoobas got him on the line. He's on the line, bones, actually, right now. You can talk to him. Like, that's how good scuba is. This month he's been killing it.

You have a lunchbox argument? Yes, back to my point of how his prank calls have been so hilarious. He's been working. You can tell, like, things have just been. Perfect. I love it. That's good. He's finally working.

You can tell. He showed up to work. Okay. I just think that lunchbox this month. I mean, if it's not one of the two this month, then it needs to be one of the next person and the next month. We'll see how people work next month. You know, there's not a second place. He didn't roll over.

Oh, it doesn't? Mm-hmm. Oh. Lunchbox. Oh, that's good. Fresh start. Oh, yeah. Come on. Come on, dude. Let's go. Let me tell you. Can I tell you before you name me employee the month? Yeah. When I first got my first job at Randalls, the grocery store, they would have employee a month in the break room.

And I was like, I'm going to be there one day. And I didn't last at Randalls very long. Then I went to Dunkin' Donuts. And I didn't win employee the month. Then I went to Sam's Club. And I was like, I'm going to be employee of the month one time. I was there for three years. They never named me employee of the month. Okay. Well, I'm glad you're at the microphone. I'd like to hear both your speeches before I actually announced the one. Wow, who you want to go first? I asked you first, lunchbox so you go ahead. All right.

To my coworkers, don't get down on yourself, it's tough to be as brilliant as me. To all my haters that cry and complain to Bobby saying that I add nothing to the show and then I should be fired. Get rid of the guy. He sucks. How dumb do you feel right now? I really hope you don't own a business because you would have fired your most valuable employee. Hate me because you ain't me.

employee of the month out Woo! All right, that's Lunchbox. Scooby Steve, if you win, your speech goes. Steve Jobs once said, your work is going to fill a large part of your life. The only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.

The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found that yet, keep looking, don't settle. And I've never settled. And being here is the greatest part of my life. And I appreciate you having me. And thank you for this award.

That's your employer the month. It couldn't even come over his own work. Even in a play drive. I use somebody who is very monumental and instrumental in our life. You have a wife and babies. But this is still the best. That's not about them. Let them have it.

It's not about them. It's my moment, Amy. Thank you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Lunchbox to the microphone. Scuba Steve to the microphone. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I know I would get kind of star-struck and want to take pictures. I just didn't know what kind of rules the studio have to follow. Thanks. Have a great day. Everybody here's pretty good about it. There's only a couple times where I know everyone wants to get a picture. Looking back, Dolly was one where everyone lined up in the room. Riva was one where everybody lined up in the room. Maybe the first time Garth has come by.

but if we're being honest, we have so many that come by. We're a little jaded by it too. But if you want a picture, everybody's always cool to give a picture. You guys are all good. Yeah.

because everyone can go on and have a vote. It's not like an editorial board at a website or just someone who writes an article. 90's country songs. As far as the public goes, I would think Friends and Low Places has to be on there. I think that's just generally the biggest 90s country song. Of course. Not my favorite. Garth's my favorite.

But if you have a favorite and you pick their biggest song, they're not really your favorite. You got to go a layer deeper, you know. I'm going to go Friends on Low Places is the biggest. That's number one. Nice. Number two? Check yes or no, George Strait. Wow. I mean, that's a good song.

Absolutely. Solid, but I wouldn't have put that in there either. I would put a George song, but a different one. All right, next? I cross my heart, George Strait. At number three. You know, some of the greatest George songs, though, are from the late 80s, too. And mid to late 80s. True.

Yeah, go ahead. The dance, Garth Brooks, at number four. Of course. Anyone not in the top five that's Garth or George? That's it, yeah, because five is Thunder Rolls, Scrofts. I co-signed this list. Okay, what else you got?

So there's a viral video on TikTok of a surrogate telling her story about how she ended up having to care for the baby that she gave birth to. So there's this woman, Jennifer Parson, here in the U.S., and she is a surrogate for people in other countries.

Like, they hire her here in the U.S. to carry her baby. She did it for a couple in Germany and delivered their twins successfully. Then a couple in China hired her. Well, she's pregnant with their baby, then coronavirus happened and international travel totally restricted. So she normally once you give birth as a surrogate, the parents take over.

Well, that was impossible because they couldn't even travel here from China. So she had to care for the baby for three months. She had the baby and then cared for it. You know it's going to be tough for her to give it up. Yeah. So, but she did. They were finally able to make it here and the couple named their daughter, Jennifer, in the surrogate's honor. and then they spent a few weeks at a RV place out in Arizona and hung out,

and they plan to all keep in touch. That's a tough story. Yeah. Wow. But beautiful ending. They finally made it from China. And then heads up, Marriott is offering day passes for people that are tired from working from home. I think Kayling is about to go out of her mind working from home.

Really? Because she works nine or ten hours a day just at her computer, and then she's at home after that. Yeah. So she's at home working all day. And then when she gets off work, she stays home. Yeah, that's a lot. She's like, because we don't go a lot of places because we don't want to get sick or get anybody sick.

So she's just going berserk. Day past guests get a hotel room from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. with Wi-Fi, desk face, a chair, lots of electrical outlets, and you get to enjoy like coffee, bottled water, and food. That's cool. And they have a gym. You get to go somewhere. Coffee bottled water and food. Listen, I stay in a lot of cheap motels, hotels on weekends when I'm shooting the show. The coffee's always awful.

Yeah, it's mediocre. But you can't do food now with Corona. Like a lot of these hotels are just like, sorry. Well, here you can. With the day pass, you can. And think about it. For your lunch break, you could be like, I'm going to head down to my gym and work out,

go take a dip in the pool, and then go back to work. I'm Amy. That's my file. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Tell me something good. So some police officers in Phoenix were walking into a Walmart. mart and they saw a man in a wheelchair outside and they asked him if he had shoes on him because

he didn't have any on and he said no I'm homeless and then as they decided that they were going to take him in to buy him some shoes which is thoughtful and as they're wheeling him in they start asking about his life and he was in the navy he was in a vet the officers thanked him for his service and it was just like a really special thing that these officers didn't have to do and they also got him socks and food and all the things that's cool there you go that's awesome that's what it's all about That was Tell Me Something Good All right, thumbs up or thumbs down I'm gonna play you guys a song

This is called the Flip Flap song It's supposed to be the next baby shark So we got a bunch of parents here Have you guys heard the Flip Flap song? No, nope, I don't think so All right, this is the Flipflap Doobo doobo boop Flip Flip Flip Flapp

Scooby-Duboob Hibabbubbub Thumbs up or thumbs down for the kids, Amy Thumbs up Yeah? Yeah, I can see my son loving it Is this the next Baby Shark lunchbox? Kids are going to love it.

It's a thumbs up. I'm going to be annoyed about two more times. Eddie? I hate Baby Shark. This is way better than that. So give me a thumbs up. Yeah, I'm a thumbs up. Hit me a flip flap again.

And a flip flap. It's called the flip flap. It's big in Europe right now. It's from the Netherlands. And that's why they're making those noises. That's actually their language. is that really? Is that based in words?

Honestly, I thought that was just noises. Me too. But that's a different language. The kids are going to love this. Yeah, that's the new flip-flap song. Over to Amy, let's get the morning corny. The morning corny! Did you hear Dirk Smithley's house was for sale?

Yeah. Oh, is that a joke? Yeah, this is my joke. How is this going to be a joke? Yeah. Oh, duh. Follow me here. No, I didn't hear Dirk Spintley's house

was going to be for sale. Oh, yeah. I almost bought... What? She's laughing at her joke already. This is the weirdest setup. Go ahead. Yeah, I almost bought it. And then I thought, what was I thinking? What was I thinking? What? Did you guys write that?

You could really work that in any kind of joke, like with Dirks or something. Okay. I can't wait to see your Netflix special. It's going to be really good. She's writing her own jokes, folks. One of my favorite things is when Amy comes into the studio and says, I have this story about my husband. Uh-oh.

Because I just feel like you enjoy telling fun stories about him when we can laugh. Well, no, I need to understand if I'm wrong for how I feel about this. Okay, go ahead. Tell me the story. So we're at this adoption therapy thing. For what? Well, it's a therapist that helps adopt.

adoptive parents. Okay. About your kids? Yeah, just us. No kids. Two adults sitting there with the therapist. One of the adults says, uh, excuse me, I got to go take a leak. Nice.

Kids up and locks out. Because who says that into like a public person that they don't really know that well? So his everyday vernacular that is to say take a leak. Yeah, but we don't. That's not. What if he'd have said, I need to go tinkle? Would you have rather than that? What if I did that?

Then he would probably be embarrassed. My grandma used to say that. When she would be peeing and my sister and I would be in the bathroom, say we were to public, say we went to the movies. Do I want to hear this? I already don't. Yeah, that's already awkward. Why? You brought up tinkle and made me think of this.

So we would be waiting for her and she would be in the stall, peeing, and she would just yell through the stall. Girls, you got a tinkle. And we would just look around like, we don't know who that lady is talking to. Not us, because we don't say that. No, you don't also say, also you don't say, I got to go take a leak. When he was in the military, did they say that all the time? Was that the standard? Or does it not matter to you?

That doesn't matter to me, because I don't, he doesn't say that on the regular. Oh, he doesn't. No, I don't know where that came from. That's why I'm so confused. And I just, when we left, I was like, what was that all about? He's like, I don't know, I was nervous. So your question is, is that. acceptable? Yeah, is it acceptable?

To say, I gotta go take a leak. When in a semi-formal setting. Yeah. Lunchbox? Listen, when you're talking to it, it's another dude, right? No, it's a woman. Oh. Oh. I was just saying, you're on the couch. You know? I mean, I understand what you're saying about the, I just thought if it's another dude.

Usually guys, the guy say, I'm going to take a leak. Right. But, I mean, it's just a guy just, you know, letting you know, what would you like him to say? I got to go. Excuse me. I have to, I'll be right back. I have to relieve myself. Excuse me. Where's just the restroom?

I think it was actually like, I got to take a leak, which way to the bathroom? I don't know. Which way to the commode? Yes or no? Lashbodgebatch Eptable or not? I mean, listen, he's a manly man. It's acceptable. Eddie?

I don't think I would say that. I honestly don't think I would say that. But I kind of like the fact that he said it because lunchbox, you're right. He is a manly man. And I can't see him saying it any other way. I don't see your husband going, may I go to the restroom, please? Right. I see him going, I didn't take a even.

He owned the situation. Okay, so you say yes, it was acceptable? Yes, absolutely. Bobby. Don't we just as humans want other humans to be transparent and authentic? Yes. You want to be able to see through what he's feeling, saying. He's being authentic as who he really is.

You want to present your most honest face to your adoptive counselor? Wow. That's a good point. That's a way to put it. Wow, that's deep. That's true. You want him to explain. his emotions, right? That's why you go to this.

You know what? I'm going to say... No, I think that something he was taken over by trauma or something. He does not talk that way. Although, what a weird term to take a leak? Right. It is. It doesn't make a lot of sense. It doesn't. A leak just happens. I gotta go take a leak.

I'm going to say it was okay, but never again. Right, but I should be, I have the right to be embarrassed and to call him out on it. Because I don't want to be a nagging wife, but that was the first thing I said when we walked out of there. I don't think that's nagging to have brought that up. Okay. But tell him never again. Okay.

Lunchbox is undefeated after five weeks in Lunchbox versus the ladies. If he goes 16 and no, we will retire the game and retire him as all-time champion. Ah, I feel so good. Of a guy who claims that no woman can beat him at NFL trivia. So let's meet our player who we are crossing our fingers that she beats him today. This is Emily and Kemp. Colorado. Emily, how are you? Hey, I'm good. How are you?

I'm really good. Are you nervous at all right now? I feel like, you know, it's like the state championship. I'm excited, a little nervous, but I'm ready to play. I like that. Okay. I mean, if you only shoot for state championships, that's kind of sad. What championships did you win? I win national titles. Did you ever actually compete as an athlete, Emily?

Yeah, I play basketball in college. I played in the state championship last year. Wow. All right. Did you win, though? No, we lost by 10. Oh, that's what's about to happen here. So just treated just like that state championship, girl. So you're a freshman in college right now playing basketball?

Yeah, I am. I'm actually walking to class. I think I might be late, but that's okay. Are you sure you're okay? It's going to take like eight minutes to do this game. No, no, we're good. I already emailed my teacher. I told him I'm going to be on the radio. Where do you play college ball?

I go to Colorado Christian University. All right. Well, Emily is on from Colorado. Where is that? Are you in what part of the Colorado? Lakewood, right outside Denver. Okay. So she'll get seven questions.

Lunchbox will be out of the room. He'll come in and get the same seven questions. We shall see who the champ is. Now, is your dad in sports, Emily? Yeah, my dad played football in college a little, and he coaches. Okay. He has his own business. And he trains quarterbacks and stuff.

Wow. Okay. I love it. Any big-name quarterbacks he trained? Did he train Peyton when he was out there? No. He worked at the camp one time in Payne Manning camp, but he trained Grant Gannell, who's a quarterback in Arizona,

Jeremiah Britsco. He plays in the CFL, some guys like that. And this isn't CFL trivia, though, so. Okay. All right, lunchbox is leaving a room. There he goes. Lunchbox is out here. I feel good about this, Bones.

Yeah. You say that every week. No, I don't. Yeah, but we feel good about Emily today. All right, Emily. The thing is some of the questions you'll ask, pretty old. I've been studying, but I'm only, I just turned 20, but I think I can do it. I'm ready. Whatever you do, don't make any excuses around him.

Because anything you say, he's going to, ah, right, right, right. Okay, you have seven questions. Emily, good luck. I like you. I'm rooting for you, okay? Okay, thanks.

What wide receiver won the Super Bowl MVP award when the Pittsburgh Steelers won it in 2009? Oh. Five seconds. What wide receiver won Super Bowl MVP when the Steelers won it in 2009? Time. I don't know. Incorrect. The answer was Santonio Holmes. Do you think that he'll get that? Maybe. Maybe. Maybe.

Come on. One more. Okay. What running back sizzled the league in 1997 by rushing for over 100 yards in 14 consecutive games? What running back

sizzled the league in 1997 by rushing for over 100 yards in 14 consecutive games? I'm going to go with Jerry Rice. Oh, Jerry Rice is a receiver. Barry Samp. Barry Sands.

Barry Sanders? Yeah, that would have been the answer. Okay, so she got five out of seven. Not bad. Okay. He may not get those bones. Maybe not. Yeah, the Pittsburgh steals one is kind of tough.

He may get Barry Sanders, though. Okay, well, let's... He may say Heinz Ward at Pittsburgh. Yeah, or Antonio Brown. What year was it, though? 2000. Yeah, I don't know about that year. All right, here he is.

Oh, I didn't know he was right there. Okay. You choked like the state title or what? Okay. Hey, how did you do in the state title game, Emily? Did you put up good numbers or no? It is okay. Sounds like she got a little nervous

and stayed title game. Got a little butterfly, so it's like being on the radio. No, no, no. All right. Lunchbox, are you ready? I've been ready. I'm ready every week.

Question number one. What is Marshawn Lynch's nickname? Same thing I'm named on the soccer field. Beast mode. Correct. No, not that you're named that on the soccer field, but that's his name. What was Brett Farve's number

through his NFL career? On his jersey is number four. Correct. Before they, they were the Houston Texans. What was Houston's team name? Oh, man, they were cool. The Oilers. Correct. What wide receiver won the Super Bowl MVP award when the Pittsburgh Steelers won it in 2009?

Because you didn't think I was getting there. I was going through the... Which running back sizzled the league in 1997 by rushing for over 100 yards in 14 consecutive games. Had to be... Had to be Barry Sanders.

Correct. Yeah! Where did Tom Brady play college football? Oh, he was a Michigan Wolverine. Correct. Which head coach has the most playoff wins in the NFL? Bill Belichick?

Correct. Seven for seven, lunchbox wins again. Oh! Did you email your professor and tell him you lost? No. What did you miss? Santoneo Holmes. Oh.

And Barry Sanders. But she had the Barry part, right? Right? No. No. I heard Bobby say it. Jerry. Jerry.

Jerry Barry. You heard Bobby say it. Well, he was already answered the question. I'd already gotten it wrong. Oh, I'm sorry. I mean, I don't feel bad at all. I mean, you call in here and you say you're saying you're state, well, state runner up.

And now you can tell your friends, you're a football runner up. Congratulations. All right, Emily. You were great on the show. I wish you would have won. Go to class. That's where you're going to make your real money, learning. Not here on this show.

Okay. You've got like a $100 dollar gift card to Walmart. But you're setting yourself up for a life. What are you studying, Emily? I'm majoring in global studies. To do what? I want to work for like a nonprofit or something like that. Good for you.

Well, thank you for your time. Tell you a professor we say hello. and thank you for letting you miss a little bit of class, and hopefully we'll talk to you again soon, okay? Okay, thanks. All right, there he is, 6-0. Lunchbox wins again. Thank you very much.

Hey, Christian, what's going on? I just wanted to let you know that my boys are here with me, and Lehman Elliott.

And we finally got around to watching your Fair Grills special, and we're very impressed about how well you performed, and we just had a question for you and a comment for you. Okay, go ahead. Obviously, you're very into fitness and all that, but you kind of challenged yourself significantly with, you know, the heights, and you had mentioned that you were afraid of height. What kind of special things did you do prepare for that,

get over those spheres, and physically get your mind, mind ready and body ready for that. Okay, I think that's a good question. By the way, you can watch my Bear Girls episode. It was not about a year ago, but it's on Disney Plus right now. And if you go to Disney Plus and Nat Geo, you can find the Bear Girls, and I'm up there. And I'm super proud of it, and I'm not proud of anything that I do. But so we go over it, we go to Norway, extremely northern Norway, and they don't tell you what you're going to do.

The only testing they gave me was before they had me do heart checks and to make sure that I wouldn't collapse. I had to like swim a little bit to make sure I would, that I could hold you. in case anything crazy happened out there. But here's the thing about fears in general. That I knew that I was going to do things that scared me. I didn't know what I was going to do. Here in my life is what I've realized. If it's being nervous,

if it's taking a rope down a 400-foot cliff waterfall, which I did, as long as I know before I go into the situation that it's okay to feel nervous, then when it does hit me, it's expected and I'm able to get through it quicker. It doesn't mean it goes away, but that initial uncomfortable feeling of,

oh, crap, I'm nervous, and I don't know what to do. That's gone. Because I was like, okay, well, I'm going to be scared as crap. So when it hits me, I'm not surprised by it. It's okay to be scared. It's okay to be nervous. It's mostly just how you handle it.

And so how I prepared myself was going, there are going to be times and situations that I'm not going to be comfortable with. I know that now. Now let's go. So not the best answer as to those specific situations, but I just prepared myself mentally by going, it's okay to be scared because it is.

So there's the answer there. What else you got? Just one other comment is, you know, you're very open about your history and, you know, you do a great job of telling us and encouraging us as listeners to, you know, find the positives in our life. And one of the things that we found very touching in your episode with Bear was you talked about your mom. And one of the things that seems like you kind of struggled with a little bit was, you know, your mom didn't, you know, maybe experience a whole lot of things because of her addictions and stuff. but really the positive that at least we found in that is she may not have realized this because it was some time ago but she did give us Bobby Bones so even some great people don't realize all the positives they do for us until after they're gone so she maybe not realize it but she did give us you well I appreciate that you know my mom got pregnant she was 15 years old we struggled our whole life I think it's tough for a 15 year old to have to figure out life especially now when you're it's two years from your daughter I know, I can't even imagine.

And so, yeah, it was tough. I feel bad that, and I struggle with just feeling bad that I existed and even happened because I made her life extremely difficult. And yeah, it was tough. But I just now try to live my life in a way that makes it worth that in some capacity. So I do struggle with it. I hated that for her, that she had to have me when she was 15 years old. I wish that it could have been a more normal life.

I know that led to other issues, which led to addiction, which was a lifelong struggle for her until she ended up dying in her 40s. But I appreciate that call, Christian. That means a lot to me. And tell you have two sons there. Tell them I said hello and thank you as well. They want to make a quick hi to you? Absolutely.

Hi. What's up? How are you guys? Good. I appreciate you guys watching my Bear Girls episode. Thanks. All right. Have a good morning, guys.

All right, guys. You see you, studio. Bye, studio. Bye. Hi. The show that I just came back from, I think we've shot seven episodes now of 16. As long as Corona doesn't shut us down again,

we're looking to do 16 episodes, and it'll be next year, but it was based off of my experience on Bear Girls. I went on the show. You guys, the listeners, made that show a hit, and so I created a show, and it's not as death-defying, but it's a lot more story-based on people

that have gone through a lot and have gotten to good places. So I can't wait for you guys to see that show as well. On the Bobby Bones show now, Kip Moore. Hey, Kip, what's up, man? Bobby, what's happening, bud? Hey, I saw you in these Bronco commercials.

Do they give you a free Bronco for doing those? There might be one coming next year. That's kind of when they're coming out next year. So the people that ordered them and stuff. So I might have one show up. That's awesome. I love those things. Yeah, they were great, man.

Yeah. You know, I saw you in that commercial. You were super ripped up. Like, what's going on with the six-pack now? I mean, it is substantial. I was just all airbrushing, man. That ain't real. Stop it. So always so humble. Where are you right now, Kip? I'm in Nashville, actually. I leave for doing a little surfing trip. I leave my Monday morning, but I'm here. I'm here in the gray until then.

Your song, she's mine. I'm going to play a clip of it right here. It's currently a top 15 song. Here we go. Do you follow the chart when a song hits top 20 or so, or are people just letting you know? I'd be lying to say that I don't check every now and then, but it's very rarely that I do anymore. I kind of learned a long time ago the things that I can't control. I'm still as passionate as I've ever been, and I've got as much drive as ever have, but I've learned to try to put that into things that actually I can kind of control and things that I can't let go off. On February 21st, which was announced this Friday, Wild World Deluxe is out.

So, and I'm going to get to this video in a second that just came out. You're putting out four additional tracks, is that right? We kind of went back and we put some songs that I usually over-record for every record, and then I kind of sit back and I see what pieces are going to fit. And these are, there's a couple in there that I love that just didn't seem to quite fit. So we've gone back and we put those songs on the deluxe record. And you're doing something really cool because the new music video, which came out on Friday for Don't Go Changing, supports Music Venue Alliance Nashville.

So tell me why this cause was important to you. Well, I mean, I think a lot of people are a little bit kind of stuck in the pixie dust with this whole COVID thing. And I think that we all are just kind of, and I don't mean this to be offensive to anyone. And offense to anyone, I know that everybody's got their own opinions, but I feel like people just think that the light switch is going to click back on and everything is going to go back to normal. And that's not going to be the case. I mean, I've got a lot of friends, whatever businesses they are that they started up. And like the music venues, people just keep talking about, you know, well, I can't wait to go to shows again. And I can't wait to go to this venue and that venue.

And I'm like, well, a lot of those venues aren't going to be there. Like, I don't know how you think economics works, but they're not surviving. So what this does is people that donate to these venues, your favorite venues in your town, if they're part of this alliance. It goes to help those venues stay up, hopefully cut back on. You're going to have a venue to go to. I think about places like the exit end that were, that was my refuge when I was in town and I was driving a tractor at work every day and I would escape at night at the exit end and I go watch shows and that's what helped me put one foot from the other

and keep that dream where I could be surrounded by other dreamers. If I hadn't had that venue to go to, I don't think I'd be where I'm at. You guys go check out the video because again, the video for Don't Go Changing supports this organization that Kip is involved with. And yeah, check it out. Dude, love your heart, man. Always loved your heart. So thanks for that. You bet, Bobby.

You good, man? Yeah, I'm good. I want to ask you this, though, before we go, because I don't like to make anything about me. This is about you. Talking about venues. Your first performance ever, I was just handed this. Was it the mellow mushroom in Valada, Georgia? Is that a pizza place?

Yeah, it's a pizza place. It was actually like the hot spot for music late night in Valhasta. It was a place called Remington. It was a strip of bars that were all music venues after hours. And Mellow Mushroom was like, that was like the spot. When you got your first spot there, were you nervous? Oh, heck, extremely. But you realize what that is, is you weren't prepared.

Like I thought I was, but I wasn't. You know, I was green, and I got up there, and I remember I was, you know, Yeah, I was scared to death. There he is. Because it was a packed house, my very first show, and I didn't know how to entertain at that point, you know? Kipmore was scared to death. So we all should feel okay about being scared to death.

Hey, Kip, it's always good to talk to you. Hopefully, I will see you soon and be safe out there, bud. Hey, Bob, congrats, man. I hope your thing goes great for you. There he is. Kipmore, everybody. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie.

Yeah, home there's something good. So Gordon Wayne a couple years ago was a homeless man living in his car. But during that time, he was also applying to colleges hoping that would just get him out of his funk. And he got accepted to his dream school, Boston College. So now he's a sophomore there. That's cool in itself. But he also wants to kind of raise awareness for homelessness. And so by doing that, he decided to walk from his hometown in central Virginia to Boston College, which is a long, long way.

He walked 30 to 40 miles a day for 16 days. raised $100,000. Wow. Yeah, pretty cool. He will not forget where he came from, obviously, but he wants people to know that homelessness is a real issue out there, and people need to help. That is a significant amount of money, too. Yeah. Wow. That's what it's all about right there. That was Tell Me Something Good.

Bill. Andrea, welcome to the Bobby Bone Show. What's going on? Good morning, Bobby. Morning studio. Morning. Thank you so much for taking my call. Today is my 40th birthday, and I just wanted to send it with you all. And thank you so much for the love and positivity that you bring to our lives. My mom was diagnosed with cancer this summer, and she's going through chemo in Louisville. And every other week, I drive up for her chemo treatments and listen to the podcast on the way, and you guys just make the drive up so awesome and make it just fly by.

And we wear our Tata to Cancer T-T shirts from the shop forward every day that she's doing chemo, whether I'm with her or not. So I wanted to thank you for the joy that you bring to our lives and just all the positivity. And I just had to call on my 40th birthday. So thank you so much for talking to me. Say a couple things here. One, happy birthday. That's just love it that you called us on your birthday.

Two, just the best wishes and prayers for your mom. mom who's going through something that she'll get through and be stronger for it. So we're just grateful that you guys will spend time with us and keep fighting. Whatever you do, just keep fighting and stay positive around her. Thank you so much. You guys are the best. And congratulations on your engagement. Congratulations to Ramundo and Mike D.

And just know how much light you bring to our lives. So thank you so much. And thanks for being a big part of my birthday. This is awesome. Thank you. Yes, Amy. Yeah. Leave your address and everything with Abby because we'll send

you a little pimp and joy birthday present. Oh my gosh, Amy, you're the best. Well, it's Eddie jumping naked out of a cake, so be careful. It gets a little awkward. Yeah. Andrea, hang on the line, okay? You guys are the best. Thank you.

Have a great day. You do. So dumb. Can you have that? No, I can't imagine that. They're like, okay, we send this to you from the Bobby Bowen Show. Wow, that's a big cake. I come out.

Hello, happy birthday. Sorry, they made me do it. Oh my. Let's do the news. Bobby's Big. Story. A woman in Florida who was in labor to have a baby come out of her. Stopped on the way to vote.

Here's an employee of the elections office on 10 News Tampa Bay explaining what happened when the woman's husband came in. She refuses to go to the hospital until she votes. It was a odd situation, but she wanted to vote. vote and that was her right. I gave her I voted sticker and she was on her way to the hospital. She was very happy that she got to vote. Hey good for her. And she must have thought she had a little time. Yeah, for sure. You know, she's like, okay, let me click. Who do I want for the Senate? Oh, there's the head. That's like, I haven't done my, my picture yet because I have my voted sticker. I haven't put it on because if you have a sticker, you have to post yourself on Instagram.

Oh, right. Right. Right. Right. Pick her it didn't count. Yeah, so I'll probably do that today. All right, let's do one more. Bobby's story. Well, speaking of producer Eddie, I thought he'd like this story. Waterburger is expanding to a new state. Come on.

It's Missouri. I know. I know. Not here, but the fact that they're expanding means they can expand. The thing is, now they're owned by a Chicago company. Yes. So they will want to go out on a more national platform. Eddie's favorite place to get a burger is Waterburger.

Why do you love Waterburger? Since I was a kid, it's just a Texas, it's a Texas place. And since I was a kid, that's all we ate for lunch, man. Waterburger, whatever, whatever. And then when I got older and we go get drunk, what did you do at 2 in the morning when you went home? Got Waterburger. And they have the best ketchup. The burger chain revealed it will expand its presence to another state next year when two of them were opened up in Kansas City, Missouri.

But you can expect other moves soon. That's one state closer. Is it closer? Yeah, I guess so. Missouri is right there. It jumped up. There you go. That's the news.

Bobby's big. Story. Amy, do you trick or trade her now? Yeah, we did. Just with Stevenson, though, so Shara decided that I thought she'd change her mind last minute because of the candy, but she did not want to go. She's too old now.

But Stevenson had a blast. And I was so impressed with so many parents that made these goodie bags, like a paper sack tied with a bow, so individual. So is COVID-friendly to where you don't have to stick your hand in a bowl? You just go up and get your individual. bag and I didn't think of that. I had a big bowl. Amy even unwrapped the candy individually. Yeah, I was like, here's some hand sanitizer.

But yeah, our neighborhood did it. It was fun. Eddie had the most COVID safe thing I saw on the internet. Oh, yeah. He built a candy shoot from his upper window. I sure did. Yeah, I used pipe. And the only problem is the pipe was a little too skinny, and then there was like a bend in it. So I would say 80% success rate where like most of the candies went through. But if you threw like a Skittles bag or an M&M bag, it would get stuck. Yeah, yeah. You had to pour some liquid plumber down to get it out.

Drano. Yeah. Yeah. Do you have a bunch of kids come by? Lots of kids. I was surprised that the neighborhood, it was full force. But like Amy said, us going trick-or-treating, impressed. A lot of tables out there, a lot of individual bags, or a lot of people just put like two candies in separate little areas.

So you go up and just grab, but not a bowl. So it was pretty cool. Morgan, did you stand by at your door waiting to give candy away? Yeah, I did. And I only got two trick-or-treaters. It was really sad. I have a bowl full of candy So in case there's any kids out there

I don't want to stop buying it, I have a lot Well, Lunchbox is 39 years old He dressed up as a penguin And went door to door looking for candy He said just imagine an adult Coming to the door going, hey, took a treat This year was a little tougher though

It was a lot tougher because like you said There was a lot of people with the tube shoots And so there wasn't a lot of knocking And it didn't really matter But I did find a few houses that still had you come up and knock on the door, and they were my victims. Trick-or-tree!

How's it going? Oh, what do you got? You got Smarties? Smarties, I'll pass. I'll pass. No thanks. Happy Halloween. This house has Smarties.

I said, no, I'm moving on. Next house. You've got to be like, what just happened? Some old guy just came up here. All right. Trick-tree! Happy Halloween. Yeah, happy Halloween. Thank you.

You know the penguins too. Yeah, what are these? They're carols, yeah. That might be next to worst to candy corn. Like, candy corn's the worst. That might be terrible. Oh, well, go get your free candy somewhere else. Terrible, terrible.

Got him. I would just think they would be confused for a second, because when there's an adult dressed up, you look down and there are kids around him. Like usually the mom or the dad or the grandma or grandpa, whomever's with them, is dressed up because they're also telling kids, hey, let's dress up. like leading by example

but then when he shows up by himself you start checking your wallet yeah here's one more trick or treat hopefully you guys got good candy that's only two pieces that's four

that's five that's it go home and have a cocktail go home and have a cocktail oh my gosh there you go nice work lunchbox it was harder the shit huh a lot harder man

The pandemic has even ruined adult trick or treating when we're messing with people. Corona just screws everything up. Can we not have just that? I give you my best and worst from the weekend. My best, I went to the Grand Canyon to shoot an episode of my new show, which comes out next year.

And I am extremely afraid of heights. It's my one big fear. And this was the one I was nervous about days into it because over the Grand Canyon, which I'd never been to, I've flown over it, but I'd never been to the Grand Canyon until this weekend. It's amazing. And I feel like I've seen everything.

I just tour so much and go to so many cities. I feel like I've seen everything that I... All inspiring. You're just like, wow, it's so big. So we go to the Grand Canyon, and there's something called the Skywalk, and the skywalk goes out over it. And so you walk out and you can look under the glass and see 4,000 feet down. And that is freaky in itself just to walk out and look down.

but what they were having me do is rope access, which is how they clean the top of skyscrapers. You know, if there needs to be stuff done at the top of the Eiffel Tower, if the only way you can get there is buy rope. And so that was my job to take ropes to get out underneath it and hang 4,000 feet and clean the bottom of the skywalk under the glass because someone clean the top of the glass, no problem. You just get a mop.

You get a sweeper and you just sweep it. Yeah, yeah. But the guys on the bottom, their job is to rope their way in and hang and clean the bottom of it. And that has to be the cleanest because that's what they're there for to look down. Well, both are pretty even, to be fair. But they only go three times a year

to clean the bottom of the skywalk. And so that was the break, it's called Breaking Bobby Bones if it was going to break me. And I won't give you the end. I didn't die, but I thought I was going to a couple of times. I'm terrified. And there's one point where I get to the edge

and you just have to let go and you go out over the edge. That's crazy. I was so scared. Should you pee your pants? No, but I was so scared. My chest had constricted, I felt it. And I've done some nutty things.

But nothing like this. And so Caitlin's on set and she wears headphones so she can hear microphones. You know, there are a few people that, you know, my executive producer show runner who's running the show has headphones. He can hear what I'm saying. Caitlin has it. And I'm like, guys, I don't know if I can do this. I don't know if I can do this. I'm on camera. I'm scooting one inch to it because right over the edge is 4,000 feet. And the only thing holding me up is a single rope.

And I'm like, I don't think I can do this. But I'm not going to do it. Yeah. That would be the end of the show. Well, I can always just tap out and go, not going to do it. Oh my gosh. I've been broken. But that's not me. I feel like part of who. I am is not letting fear dominate me. And I might lose at times, but I don't want to let fear

dominate me. So I go finally after what seems like forever, because I was just kind of coaxing myself. Nobody was coaxing me out there. I was coaxing myself. I was like, you know you're going to do this. So just do it and get it over with. Sooner you get out there, sooner you get back. Same thing I do to get myself to work out. I hate working out. But I'm like, soon are you get started, sooner you're done. So I go, okay, fine. And boom, I'm at. I'm at. I'm at. I'm at. I'm at. I'm out over the cliff looking down. Every part, and not just my butt, every part was puckered. Toes, butt, butt, nose, and I'm not looking down.

And so I'm going over and then have to switch ropes. So, but Caitlin can hear all of this. And I can look up and she's crying because she's so freaked out because I'm freaked out. And so I went and I won't tell you what happens. I'm alive. Thank goodness. Obviously. On my Instagram, there's a picture of me, though, hanging on rope.

over 4,000 feet from the ground. I have, these guys are extremely brave that do this. They're exceptionally skilled. A little crazy? I think to just like, just pursue it as a job, you have to be a little crazy to do it. I'm thankful they do because once you learn what they do, they only get called in when every other thing has been tried.

And the skywalk was just something that is crazy, but they have to go in situations at times that are dangerous. And they're the only ones you can get there. Can't get an airplane up there. Can't drop a helicopter down there. So, it is wild. I have never been so scared, and I've done some nutty. You know, the caller earlier about Bear Girls,

I was really scared there. I was going down on a rope. That's 400 feet down a waterfall. I didn't like that at all. I was scared to death, but it wasn't anything like this. Skydiving wasn't anything like this. So was that your best or worse? Best, best.

Okay. I'm here. I'm here. My best is, I saw something amazing. I was proud of myself once it was over because at least I went out you can see on the show when it happens if I did what I was supposed to do

but I went out I faced a fear head on and said I'm just not gonna let it hold me back and I did it and so that's the best for me the worst is Arkansas losing Texas A&M that sucks Okay anyway We won

Move and run along We did we actually played pretty good Yeah I didn't know but gig them You don't even care Why would you rub it in? By the way, Texas A&M, you guys cheat. You have too many people on the stands.

Acting like it's only 20. The stadium's half full. That's the 12th man, bones. But they did play well. We played pretty well. They played really well. They're ranked number eight in the country for a reason. They're actually pretty good.

Yeah, they were pretty good. I know. You were never good when I went there. They weren't good last year. I mean, they haven't been good in a few years. So that was the worst for me. But Eddie and I, our friend Adam, Matt Jones, who is my friend

does Kentucky ready. We're all going to the Arkansas game this Saturday. Bones, I cannot wait. Like, I'm really, really looking forward to this. Arkansas and Tennessee play in Arkansas. So it's the one game I get to go to this year. So that's going to be fun.

That's my worst. Amy, you're best and worse? My best would be, I've got to say, I mean, we had a pretty good weekend, but last night I spent the night with Stasheera in her room, and we talked for almost two hours before bed. About what? Just life.

Her life, her time at the orphanage, her time before. before she was at the orphanage with her mom, things she remembers. Like, we just had, we've had some good talks before, but I think just something about me snuggling up with her in bed and talking. And so I have to say that that was for sure a high. Like, I'm glad it happened because if I hadn't a plan on sleeping with her, and she just thought that was the coolest thing ever,

because, of course, I normally don't do that. And then, I don't know, worse would be, I mean, my dad did get to come over, which is awesome, but he got stitches. And his face looks like, like he got in a car wreck and I just feel really bad for him. So that was kind of a low. But he's in good spirit, so that's awesome. Eddie Best?

Oh, easy. The best is my son scored three touchdowns in a flag football game. Wow. His first three. Which aged son? Seven year old? He's pretty good, huh? I cannot believe it.

Three touchdowns is amazing. So he got your wife's athletic ability? I get, what do you mean? No, his daddies. He got his daddy's definitely. He got his daddy. I don't like when Eddie says daddy. He calls me daddy.

I know. Six. I don't think that's weird. No, it's not weird. It's weird when Eddie says daddy. Well, I don't know. It just came out. And my worst is my Dallas Cowboys suck.

That's it. Oh, they love that. They were probably the third string quarterback last night. What do you expect? It's just hard to watch. Lunchbox is best and worst? Best signs was trick-or-treating. I mean, I always love getting free candy.

I mean, that's my favorite thing of the year. It's free candy. Worst times is daylight savings because the kids wake up an hour earlier, so 6 a.m. Woo-hoo! They're ready to go. You're telling me that being told by the news or Twitter or Facebook that daylight savings is coming

isn't affecting your kids and how they wake up and live their life. No, they wake up an hour earlier than they usually do and not cool. Or the same time, but it was just an hour earlier. Exactly, but it said 6 a.m. on the clock and that's not what I want. All right.

There you go. Nice job. Let's go over and talk to Hadassah. Is that right? Is that I say your name? Let's go to, is it Hadassah? I'd say almost. Hadasa. Hadassah, how are you?

Hi, how's the going? You're alive and well. Well, I am. I'm very alive, very well. So what I'm seeing here is that you are one of the founding members of the B team on Facebook page. Wow, that sounds so official. Well, the page is blown up. It's like, how many members are over there now?

We're at 18,000. Wow. Oh, wow. That's awesome. Yeah, and it's like the happiest place. You think Disney World's happy? You can go over to the... We are the happy.

place. Are you guys, if people come down and they are angry or mean, are you shutting them down? Oh yeah, oh yeah, for sure. I mean, we don't even address that kind of stuff. We only accept the positive. Love that. Well, I did notice, and I had mentioned this on the show last week, that they were, as a wedding gift to Caitlin and I, an engagement gift, they're raising money for St. Jude. What are you guys at now? Oh, I can't believe it. Like, we are at 23,373. That's amazing. My goodness. The goal was $8,000.

They're now at $23,000 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which is the greatest gift. Yeah, I mean, it's really for Caitlin also. I wish he was here. But congratulations to both of you. Like, the beat team was trying to figure out, what do we get Bobby? Like, what can we buy someone who could just buy everything for himself, you know? So we thought, oh, a fundraiser. Like, that would be perfect.

So within two days, we reached our first goal of $8,000. And then now we are at $23,000. So I would call that a win. It is extremely perfect. 10,000 thank you. You know what? 23,000 thank you. Because I'm appreciative that you would even think about us, appreciative that people would donate some of their hard-earned money.

I LOLed because so many of them started challenging each other and they also were donating $69. So there are all these $69 donations. Hilarious. I'm just so grateful that the B-Team exists and I'm proud that it continues to grow because, you know, I was never on the A team. I was never a first stringer.

I was never a popular kid. So the fact that we could take the B team and everybody feel like they're involved and included, like that was always a goal for me. So thank you very much for that. And I'm glad you got through the phone line to be able to share that. All right, thank you so much.

All right, have a great day. All right, you too. Bye. Right now it's at $23,373. Awesome. That's great. Bunkers. It's like they're creating their own little,

tell me something good. Yeah, that's great. Okay, let's go over and play Jameson Rogers. He will be, my guest on the Bobbycast this week on Friday. Search for it. Subscribe to it.

I hope everybody had a good Halloween. Hope it was safe. I've got your candy. Lunchbox, where did you get in trouble for your costume? My oldest son, his daycare, had a trunk or treat where all the families go and they have some cars lined up and you go from trunk to trunk and they hand out candy. So it's a Halloween thing, so I thought it would be great to wear a costume. So I dressed my kid up as a skeleton and I dressed up as the shabby. security guard. Like, you know, you see a rent-a-cop at a little place, and it's really just this

fat suit with a shirt that's too small and your butt cracks hanging out. And I walked around, did the trunk or treat, and one parent came up and tapped me on the shoulder, and she said, excuse me, sir, do you really think it's appropriate to be wearing a costume where your backside is hanging out and there's little kids running around? I'm looking at the costume now. I just imagine like a Paul Blart Mallcop, which we've referenced recently. and his butt crack like a plumber even. A real butt crack or a fake?

It's a big old fake butt crack hanging out. Okay. Now I think the costume is funny. I think around a bunch of kids though you probably could have chosen a better option. Yeah, because how old is your oldest son? Two. Right.

I'm not offended. I don't think it's an offensive costume but I think that you could have probably selected a better option for that spot. Because there's a lot of butt hanging out. And maybe parents, and your kids may not, but there may be parents who are like, I don't want my kid to see somebody's butt crack. You see it? What do you think, Eddie? No, that's half butt for sure. Listen, I have four boys, and I'll tell you right now, if all my four boys saw that, they would think

it's the funniest thing in the whole wide world, even the baby. Okay, but what about if you have little girls? What if you have little boys that don't think butts are funny? Well, I can't think for them. I think it's okay. I think it's really funny. It's not his real butt. Real butt? We'd have a problem, dude. What if it was a weaner? Fake we're a wiener. No, no, no, no, they're just little buttches. I mean, hey, it's a rubber one. Or boobs. Not real boobs.

Guys, it's just a little butt crack. I think it's okay. Amy? No, you can't wear that to your two-year-old's trunk-or-treating event. You can if we're having a work party here. Yeah, hilarious, funny, you know. Or there's lunchboxes. That guy's crazy on the radio and in real life.

Yeah, but. What do you guys think? It's too much. For that situation, it's too much. Yeah. You can go to bobbybones.com, though. find our Facebook page. We'll post a picture up on our Facebook page.

And you can let us know what you think there. Amy, what's going on today? I'm speaking of podcast. I have tons of work to do for mine, so I'll probably hunker down on that today. And then maybe get outside. I need some time with nature before I pick the kids up from school. What about you?

Finally, I'm getting my calf looked at. I've injured my calf. I don't know two months ago, and it's not healing. So I have an appointment with a physical therapist. I don't know what she's going to do, but it won't feel good. It never feels good. There's also, I'm shooting something tonight.

There's a CMA special that ABC's airing before the CMAs, and so I'm going to the Opry to shoot that tonight. They're part of it. They're interviewing me. Nice. I'm not sure what they're interviewing me about, but I feel like at this point in my career, I can just show up, and I should know enough to just do it.
