All right it's after
today's show
sometimes we record a little segment before the show starts,
which by the way, I don't think we had one on Friday.
If that ever happens and this goes up and there isn't one,
it's because I had to leave right after the show.
And on Friday I had to get right over
because I was doing a stand-up show on Charlottesville, Virginia.
And that was just a difficult travel day.
We flew right to D.C.
Then drove four hours or so.
So we had to get on a flight, fly, drive, land,
and it was right on stage.
And so we were unable to stay and hang out and talk a bit.
Today we did. I'm actually doing the show from Austin today, and Amy's in Nashville.
Hello, hello.
Yeah, I believe you were there.
Okay.
What happens is what we don't talk about on the air, we don't get into it a whole lot, is that I'm looking at Amy through the computer.
Like we have our FaceTime's open.
And so we look at each other through FaceTime when we do the show.
And so you'll hear us and not know we're in different places, right?
Yeah, I don't think you can tell at all.
We did this for five years, though, every day when you were in North Carolina and we were in Austin.
Yeah.
And the only thing that would give me away sometimes is I was doing it from my house, and I lived right next to a train stop.
And sometimes the train would go by and honk really loud or rattle my house.
Or my dog would bark.
And then Bobby would be like, Amy, she's not allowed to be in the room.
You know, and I was like, she's not in here.
But she was really under the table.
Yeah.
She was keeping my feet warm.
And I'm like, be quiet.
On today's show, I think we make fun of me a good amount for the American Idol show last man.
Oh, 100%.
Yeah, that was fun.
Yeah, later on.
My favorite part.
Later on in this show, we kind of break it down.
We all, including myself, make fun of me a bit.
But I said my life has changed as of today.
I'm a new man.
You're a brand new man.
I can't walk down the street.
I know.
I don't even know what it's going to be like the next time I see you and I'm with you.
I know.
I don't know.
I could prepare myself for this stardom.
Obviously, we're being totally facetious here.
Nothing has changed.
But yeah, I was on American Idol last night.
I'll be on again next Sunday night.
so I hope people watch.
But yeah, it's a crazy thing, man.
It's just, I taped it so long ago at this point that I'm just glad it's finally airing.
Yeah, I'm sure you were so ready for it to just be out.
And now it is, and we have like awesome little nuggets.
More so than me being like, oh, I can't wait because I'm going to be on national TV.
It was like, I just am ready for it to come out because everybody keeps going, oh, you're going to be on Idol.
What's it going to be like?
And I really didn't know.
I had no idea what they were going to use.
And they used small clips up.
part of me was like, oh, man, I wish they would use longer clips of me.
But that's what everybody feels.
Yeah.
So, and again, nobody knows me.
Unless you're listening to the show, you don't know who I am.
So to a lot of America, it was this brand new nerdy dude on screen saying, oh, you should, let me teach you how to be a good singer.
And then you look me up, I'm not even a good singer.
Like, what's happening?
So, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But, yeah, that was a thing.
So I hope you check it out if you didn't see it yet or watch it next Sunday.
12 and then I do 12 again next Sunday night.
So we'll start the show.
Anything you want to say any before we play the show back from today?
No, but the, no.
Oh, okay, yes, I do have something.
Go ahead.
That the, that you're one of the clips we play for American Idol is my favorite part of the show.
Yeah?
Yeah, and I loved when we tried to work it into other parts of the show.
I always sort of work it in right now, but I feel like we should make me listen.
Yeah, don't want to spoil it.
You don't want to spoil it.
So you got to listen for it, but it's just something that's going to be, I feel like we're going to be using that one for a long time.
Yeah, we'll see about that.
Okay, thank you very much.
Today's show starts right now.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
This is the Bobby Bones show.
That's right.
Nah, yeah, welcome to Monday show.
Man, in an hour of Brothers Osborne will be in.
But a morning studio.
Morning.
How about this story?
This guy.
Ned's sad.
He was shot.
He died.
He was a used car dealer, and they had a funeral.
And he wears $100,000 worth of jewelry in his casket.
And his casket was a $50,000 gold casket.
Wow.
And then they drove him from the funeral service to the crematorium and $200,000 of Bentley.
Okay.
That's not bad.
It's rolling in style.
But again, aren't you just asking for your grave to be robbed?
Yeah, pretty much.
Like, if you're going in with those jewels and that casket.
Yeah, and it's making national news.
Even if it's not, one of your boys, like, who cares?
You're dead.
What? You would, if we were buried that way, you think somebody in this room would take stuff from us?
If you had $100,000 of jewelry on you, I'm going to go up to the casket and act like I'm saying goodbye, and I'm really saying hello to that jewelry in my pocket.
You would? Absolutely, I'd steal that jewelry. Disrespect us like that.
You know, with the dead body, I don't think that's a thing. Really.
No, no, no, no. What you're missing is, surely, they're being buried.
Don't call me Shirley. I'm Bobby.
They're being buried that way by their request or, I'm sorry.
I've loved a family member request.
You wouldn't.
You wouldn't.
If I had an expensive ring on.
I'm gone. I'm not going to steal it.
I'm not going to steal it.
But I don't care what you guys do to me.
Well, Bones, you wouldn't put anything valuable in your casket, would you?
He might get buried in those pizza hut shoes he got.
Oh, the pie tops?
Yeah.
Then those are mine.
Recognizing people doing cool things.
It's ICU.
Wichita Police Officer Andrew Gonzalez saved the life of a man who had been shot when he put
a tourniquet on his leg to stop the bleeding, which by the way, these police officers that can think
straight when they pull up on someone who's been shot, that's crazy.
This officer was responding to an early morning shooting when he found a guy with a gunshot wounds
to both his legs.
The paramedics were not at the scene.
He made a tourniquet.
He slowed the bleeding.
Later found out that that was the only reason he had lived.
And so what the hospital did is they donated 100 tourniquet kits to the Wichita Police
Department.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, how about that?
So I see you, Officer Andrew Gonzalez, and shout out to Wichita.
Kansas, that's pretty awesome.
And now let's go over to Raymond with the news.
The Bobby Bone Show.
Big Three Stories.
It's producer Raymond in New York.
There was a fire at Trump Tower on the 50th floor.
One person died.
Six firefighters were injured.
No members of President Trump's family were at the tower during the fire.
In other news, an airplane skidded off a snowy runway at a South Dakota airport.
The snow and wind caused the plane to slide 20 feet off the runway.
Luckily, nobody was injured.
And finally, in golf news,
congrats to Patrick Reed on winning the Masters Golf Tournament.
It's tough getting to work today.
Yeah.
Big deal now.
I know.
I was thinking that.
Man, they have a police escort up here after American Idol last night.
Worth a little bit more than you were the other day.
Oh, man.
Bobby stock just went up.
Yeah.
That Bobby Stock never went up.
But, yeah, that was on last night.
It was what I thought it would be.
It was good.
It's fine.
You know, it was so cut, meaning I spent, I don't know if you watched it last night,
but I was on American Idol as a mentor.
And they cut it into different minutes.
So I was on 12 different times at about a minute each.
And it was just a whole thing.
So, I don't know.
What do you want to say about it?
It's crazy.
I mean, my kids were, like, freaking out.
Bobby's going to be on TV?
Like every hour leading up, is it time for Bobby to be on TV yet?
I'm like, I know.
They're like, he's going to be right here on the TV?
They just now got down that you're on the radio,
and now they're trying to process you being on TV.
Too much.
Oh, no overload.
Well, I kid, because my life really is no different than it was, nor will it be.
But thanks to everyone who watched last night and tweeted along and wrote on the Instagram.
So it was good.
Yeah, it was good.
That was just a part of my weekend.
What did you do?
We just did like family stuff.
I don't know.
We had some people over Saturday night and the kids painted.
I can't believe I allowed children to paint in my living room, but I laid butcher paper down.
Yeah, I saw your answer story where there was a big bunch of paper on the ground and they were just drawing on the paper.
With drawing with paint.
But just FYI parents, there is washable paint out there and my daughter got it all of her skirt and I was allowing her to do it to see if it would legit wash out.
And it legit washes out.
Who came over to your house?
Gator and his daughters
So our station program director
Yeah
You know his daughters
They're so cute
And they've like really bonded with our daughter
And then
Our other boss and his wife and their kids
Dang
Somebody's
Somebody's looking for a raise
No it has nothing to do with that
The girls planned it
Yeah
Networking to the top
That's what I'm talking about
Okay well
To be fair
He wasn't even there
that long because their son had a basketball game, so no networking.
Oh, I just got a note here.
Amy's now your boss.
Oh, man.
Bringing you the positivity.
Tell me something good time.
Tell me something good.
I'm going to go first.
A church in North Dallas.
Use the money that they normally spend promoting Easter services to pay off medical
debt for more than 4,000 local families.
The church paid off $10 million in medical debt.
Wow.
That's crazy.
10 million?
How about that?
Pastor Stephen Hayes announced
they were able to pay off medical debt for more than 4,000 local families.
Wow.
I mean, we could probably retire.
He won.
That one's amazing.
All right, babe.
Oh, that's me.
Yeah.
Stephen was driving in his car last month and he had his dog Jack with him.
And all of a sudden, Stephen has a diabetic episode.
Crashes his car.
Jack gets scared, runs away, so Stephen hasn't seen his dog for a month.
It turns up 300 miles away in Indiana, and they chip him.
They're like, oh, man, you're missing from Missouri.
Reunited them with the dog.
Wow.
Welcome home.
Aad boy, baby.
All right, Amy, give me a little something.
Got a little something different over there, I see.
Yeah, looks a little different.
Experts say that it's absolutely good to have a little yelling in your relationship every
once in a while.
Oh, that makes you feel better.
Yeah, if you're yelling, that means you care about the relationship.
So I'm just, you know, putting that out there as a little, hey, yelling is good.
Silence means you've lost interest in this cases.
Oh, yeah.
Like, I go silent immediately.
That means walls are up.
Oh, boy.
I'm now in my shelter and you will never dig me out.
I don't, I'm not a yeller, though.
Yeah, me neither.
But, I mean, sometimes yelling happens.
So that means you're sometimes a yeller?
Yeah.
I'm never a yeller.
Have I ever yelleder?
yelled. Well, that means you don't care.
Yeah, it means when times you
don't really yell. When times get tough,
I just go, whewls up.
Sorry, not talking to you. If you yell,
passion, you're into it. Tell me something good. Amy just taught us
a little something to make ourselves feel better.
Hope you have a good morning.
Wow. Hope you have a good night. Hope tomorrow is good,
too. People whose parents got a divorce,
do you think they're more or less
likely to get a divorce?
Oh gosh, you hear that you're more likely to get a divorce.
Yeah, so go with that.
You know, I'm 38, and I've, I've really been in a, you know, real long relationship
that was anything close to engagement or marriage is pretty scary to me.
And I think it's because I never really saw one work, ever.
Yeah.
Because, you know, my mom and my real dad, they split when I was five or so, maybe six.
Then she had other relationships didn't last.
She got married again later in life to my stepdad, and they got divorced.
And so for me, I think just looking at what I saw my entire life, I go, huh, it never worked.
Now, I don't, with my mind, I don't think I feel that way, but subconsciously there's got to be something there that I never saw a working relationship.
So I think somewhat it's kind of falling into me.
So it says if your parents got a divorce, you're two times more likely to get divorced just like them because it's more of a reality.
where if your parents didn't get a divorce
And you didn't see any divorce
To you, that's not a thing is easy
Yeah, no, I mean, it makes sense
My sister and I are both married
Never been divorced
But our parents got divorced
But then we have a half-brother and sister
From my dad's very first wife
Who experienced divorce with him
And they've both been divorced
Like, and remarried twice
Is that weird that your dad was married
Before you were born to somebody else?
He was married to two other people
before I was born and one another one after my mom.
Oh, yeah. And especially the middle one. So like
my half-brother and sister's mom, I know her
because she was in our life because she's their mom. And we would see her at
places. Plus she had the same name as my mom. They're both named Judy.
And there's a middle one. He was married to named Bobby Joe or something.
We don't even, I've never seen a picture of her. I know nothing.
Like she was my sister and brother's stepmom for a while, but we know nothing about her.
Wow. Your dad's married four times.
Yes. Wow.
And, yeah.
I think you just...
And what? Maybe there are a couple others you don't know about or what?
No, no, I think that those are all the ones.
He's got a girlfriend now, but they're just...
I don't think they're getting married.
They're both older and just...
It's more companionship, you know?
Did you know your dad as kind of a player
whenever you were young? Or was he just your dad with your mom?
No, he was just my dad with my mom. I mean, until he left.
Then I was young. I mean, I was eight.
So, yeah, I figured it out later.
I was like, wow, he's really must be smooth with the ladies.
Have you ever seen him in action?
What?
Like, have you ever seen your dad?
Like, he's smooth.
Oh, I just know.
He is a people person to the max.
Nobody, I mean, people meet him and he can navigate the room and handle his own and do fine.
So, I don't know.
He must smooth somewhere up in there, but I don't know.
I never seen it.
You ever have to wingman for him?
No.
Does that ask any questions?
The latest from Nashville in Hollywood.
Amy's 32nd Skinny.
Dustin Lynch has been on tour with Brad Paisley,
and while they were doing a show in Nashville,
Dustin called Brad up on stage to give him an end-of-tour gift,
and he gave him a baby goat, a real live baby goat.
Yeah, and I think Brad in real life was going,
now what do I do with this baby goat?
Because that was a real gift.
Yeah.
To give him a live creature.
Yeah, because he thinks that Brad is one of the greatest of all times, the goat, a goat in country music.
So, yeah, kind of had to accept it.
Maybe just put it in the backyard.
Yeah, I guess.
I just don't want to ever be gifted anything alive.
Yeah, true.
I take a goat, though.
So Carrie Underwood hinted last week that she's in the studio working on new music,
but now she's teasing some band rehearsals.
She put up something on Instagram.
She's like, I missed these guys.
Now, a tour hasn't been announced, but definitely.
something is in the works.
Yeah, it could be an award show.
For sure, she's coming back.
I don't know that a tour is getting announced super soon,
but music for sure is super soon.
Which will be awesome.
Yeah.
I made me that's your 30 seconds guinea.
The Bobby Bone Show.
Bobby Bone Show.
Bonehead.
Story of the day.
This story comes us from Miami'sburg, Ohio.
A man was in his duplex when he saw some insects crawling on the wall,
and he's like, man, those insects, they keep.
coming back, I kill him, and they can return.
It's like, let me get some flame.
Oh, flames always are good for bugs.
So he gets a lighter and tries to light him on fire.
Boom, up goes the wall in flames.
$20,000 in damage.
They say call a professional.
Yeah, don't use fire.
I mean, yeah, fire and bugs seem to be a constant reoccurring bonehead.
Oh, I'm lunchbox.
That's your bonehead story of the day.
On the Bobby Bones show now.
Brother Sosborn.
All right, Brothers Osborne here, the record, Port St. Joe, comes at April 20th.
Maybe you know this song right here.
This is called Shoot Me Straight.
So a lot of people are just now getting to know you guys.
That's something we have to remind ourselves of.
You know, we still go places all the time.
I was just on a Southwest flight, and someone wanted a picture taken.
And they said, who are you guys?
I said, we're Brothers Osborne.
And said, no, they don't fly Southwest.
Because now you're super rich.
Exactly.
Super duper.
That's funny, too, because then she went on to talk about what a big fan of ours that she is, but she didn't know what we looked like, which I thought was really funny.
And then it kind of put things in perspective to me that, you know, there are a lot of people that are just still kind of figuring out what's going on here.
How are you guys doing personally?
Oh, good.
Yeah, doing good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Our mom just underwent triple bypass surgery, and she's killing it.
She's doing great.
She's got a nice, healthy heart.
So, Ma, if you're out there listening, we love you.
and keep pushing on.
But we're doing good, you know, just pushing on and trying to sleep as much as possible.
Yeah, that's tough now, huh?
Yeah.
So with you, TJ, you're having to sing.
You have to sleep.
Yeah.
Like, you have to sleep.
Oh, yeah.
Well, let's say, John, you don't sleep.
All right.
You get sick a little bit.
Yeah, I mean, yeah.
As long as I don't break my fingers, I'm good.
Yeah.
It is.
That's one thing I've kind of recently become, like, obsessed with, like, washing my hands.
But I'm not really a germaphobe.
I don't really care about that.
when I get sick, it just kind of, it doesn't happen.
It all stops.
And it's really frustrating to look around at not only John, but then our band and be like,
sorry, guys.
I don't have it.
Or just the last time I got really sick, we had to cancel a show the day of.
I tried to make it happen.
And it got really, really bad.
My left notes swelled up so bad.
It looked like I had like.
Another head.
It was disgusting.
And John actually was like, we're not doing this.
This is ridiculous that you're even considering.
making this happen. And so occasionally
it feels bad as you're letting people down.
But I mean, you,
you know, sometimes you just, you go and you go and you go
and at some point, you run out a rope.
Let me ask you a question, TJ.
Because you and Amy live close. How is she's a neighbor?
Amy is really the perfect neighbor
because of the hours that you guys
keep. It's like,
it's like I hardly even see her. It's like she just sleeps
around the block. You ever see the family
walking on the road? You ever see them?
Amy, how is he as a neighbor? That's the question.
Y'all are gone a lot.
I see his dogs more than him.
He has the most beautiful dogs, and my kids are obsessed.
And so we stop at your gate, and they talk to the dogs.
And so your dog just passed away recently, right?
She did, yeah.
So sad.
It was the sweetest dog.
Actually, when I first moved in, there was this dog that was running down in everything.
It's a rock roller, right?
And it was like, going on the street, and I was like, oh, my God, this dog's on the loose.
And I'm like, I think it's friendly, but it also looks like you could just eat you alive.
Yeah.
Cujo looking.
Yeah.
And I was like, come here.
And then she's the sweetest dog you'd ever met in your life.
And then, yeah, and then I didn't even know it was your house at the time.
I mean, like grabbing the dog and putting it back in your house.
But, yeah, she's a great neighbor.
Yeah.
Do you see from behind her house, she's building this gigantic garage.
Have you guys seen the garage mall?
Have you seen it?
Garage Mahal.
Well, here's the thing that now that we're here, we can breach the subject.
I actually have, like, for the longest time I have been thinking about adding
onto my garage, which is funny.
I never had a garage in my life.
Garage would be.
This is our first grass shoe.
I know, which is funny is now I'm like,
it needs to be bigger, even though I haven't had one
in my entire life or ever thought I would have one.
But I'm like, I don't want her to think
that if I add on to this garage
and I'm like, oh yeah, you think yours is big.
Keeping up with the Joneses.
Garage and be.
It's a reality show.
I'll give you my guy's number.
You're good. Yeah, no, it's fine.
Like, who can make it taller?
Yeah.
It looks awesome, though. It looks awesome.
She's a great house.
You're all right, John?
I'm good, man. I'm getting there.
Everybody's fighting all this stuff.
It's that time of year, man.
Everyone's getting it.
You know, we have a, I don't know if this got to or not,
but a bit of an admission here because we,
one day they're like, hey, we're, so for the listeners,
a lot of times if we'll go on, we'll do,
we'll record what they call liners,
and you do a little like, hey, you're listening to the station.
And they try to get them all up one day.
I know you all know this, but,
And so we went in and they were like, we were going to do some for Bobby Bones.
And I was like, awesome.
And we showed up.
And John and I showed up and were all hungover and disheveled.
And we went in the studio.
And then all of a sudden they kicked on this track.
They started dropping a beat.
And we were like, what?
And we were like, just sing something.
I'm like, sing.
And they're like, I thought we were doing liners.
Like we were just saying things.
And it was like turned right as the bill of your hat.
I was like, this is incredibly embarrassing.
I had no idea this is what's happening.
Did you end up singing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, but it was probably not great.
Oh, I heard us the other day.
Did you?
Okay, good, good.
So we made it?
We made it.
So you made the cut.
We made the cut.
No other showliners are like that.
Oh, my God.
I was literally like, what in the hell just happened today?
Yeah, John of all I like to prepare.
You kind of Ron Burgundy your way through him.
You read like 50 in a row.
And all of a sudden, like, the dude started dropping a beat.
And I was like, oh, my God, what's happening right now?
He's like, yeah.
For the record, I had nothing to do with it.
Yeah.
Yeah, you weren't there.
Yeah.
Now I'm going to have to listen for theirs
Because that's the fun part for us sometimes
Is when they start playing, we're like
Play like guest the artist
Let's hear
I'll say the guy that actually puts them together
He was really good
And he was really great at like
Because we were just deer in the headlights
And he knew that it was really
Someone who isn't in this room
And I won't mention his or her name
But they left it
They hung us out to dry all that day
We're gonna play the single right now
Brothers Osborne here
The record comes out on the 20th
Here is shoot me straight right now
On the Bobby Bone Show
Make a bird
I'm definitely not advocating
that kids try to buy beer underage
but this story is funny.
Two kids of California
tried to buy beer last week
using a classic trick.
One of them sat on the other shoulders.
They put on a giant trench coat
and then they tried to go in as a tall person
and buy beer.
Come on.
It's funny.
Apparently two kids in Daily City, California
try to pull it off.
And so they climbed up and they put on a little disguise and no, it did not work because the face looked like that of a 12 year old.
And they were a little too tall for their face.
That's funny.
Yeah, the clerk denied them.
Even after they told him they were an undercover detective as well.
Oh, nice.
That trench coat.
It was like with, I think it was Black Panther.
That movie two kids got on each other's shoulders and tried to go in because they couldn't get in at the age.
were so they got on each other's shoulders.
That's funny. Because isn't that PG-13?
It is.
And you took your kids to watch that, huh I am?
Yeah, my husband did.
Our seven-year-old son, yeah, he took him.
Oh, just those two went.
Yeah, well, no.
Our daughter and our son, but our son happens to be seven.
And I'm like, ooh, PG-13.
So what did your son think about it?
He thought, I mean, there were certain parts.
I think that were just, he thought it was too long.
He got so tired.
I don't think he was really that into it.
our daughter loved it.
Did your kid hear a curse word and repeat it back?
No, and they've heard them, but they haven't repeated them,
because they've heard them on TV or in movies,
and they have not repeated them, thank goodness.
You know how I talk about the lottery,
and they've hired someone to find odd stories
and put them out all the time?
Here's your next one.
A Missouri man who decided to clean out his truck
discovered a two-month-old powerball lottery ticket
worth $50,000.
Oh, wow.
Jason Jacobs of Independence,
said he bought three powerball tickets for the January 24th drawing of the Quick Pick.
He put him in the center console of his truck and he forgot about him until late March.
He said he cleaned up the truck, found the tickets, decided to look, and boom, $50,000.
That's amazing.
What all these stories do is make it feel like anybody can win all the time.
And every day there's another one.
And people are also going through their console being like,
did I forget a lottery ticket in here?
Yeah, or they're going, oh, maybe I should be one.
one of these stories since I'm walking in the convenience store.
I need to buy one.
I just needed some milk.
So there's that.
Do you read that story?
Yeah, the one that's titled,
Prediction.
Bobby Bones will give American Idol the ratings boost it needs.
No.
I thought it was a little too dramatic.
Yeah, I was like, hello pressure.
First of all, the show's doing wonderfully in the ratings.
It's not the same as well as season one, two, or three when there just weren't as many options
and there wasn't Netflix.
Secondly, it's a little too much pressure.
Like, I didn't do that much.
You saw it last night.
I don't think I...
Let me look at...
Nope.
I didn't set any new ratings records.
Well, but I mean, a lot of us...
Me, for example, I wasn't mentioned in the article as being someone that would be tuning in.
But I haven't watched American Idol at all until last night when you were on.
Yeah, but that's because you know me.
I know exactly.
That's what they say here.
They list five reasons why you're going to, you know, be good for the show because, you know, you still have next week.
And number one,
He'll bring his fans with him to the show.
That's me.
It does shout out the B team.
The B teamers, yes, shouts them out.
Then it says you've got credibility for breaking artists.
He has a well-known rags to riches story.
He's been where their contestants are and where they want to be.
And then lastly, they say you're like Ryan Seacrest or something.
Yeah, it does say, yeah, there were some things that were uncomfortable for me in that story.
where it's like he's for sure
going to be the next guy.
Yeah.
And I was like, man.
It says you're a convenient air.
Yeah, that's a secret.
Like, that means you would inherit his...
But we're not the same.
Ryan and I do nothing the same
except talk on the radio.
I guess when we're both nerdy white guys.
Yeah, that's about it.
Now you've had...
I think Ryan's awesome at what he does,
but we're just not the same.
We both do a lot of jobs.
Yes.
But he...
Y'all do.
Y'all both like to stay very busy.
Yeah, and that's why we both are terrible at relationships.
Oh, he's got a girlfriend, though.
Ryan does.
Oh, he does?
Yeah.
Who?
He does.
I don't know her name.
But he's had her for a while.
Tina.
Yeah, we'll call it Tina.
This is a body bone show.
Bobby Bones.
Dishes is the household chore that is most likely to damage a relationship of all the chores.
Why?
Because the one of them doesn't want to do it and it piles up.
Yeah.
I mean, both of them don't want to do it.
Oh.
Yeah, somebody's going to have to take charge of that because dishes in sync, that's a no-go.
Does your husband ever watch dishes?
Yes, we both do.
He's actually pretty good at it.
Really?
Yeah.
Arguments over household chores can lead to marital discord.
No.
Says the whole article.
Like, even up there with money sometimes is that big a fight because it's never about the actual thing.
It's about the disrespect.
Yeah.
Like, my husband needs to learn how to fold things.
Oh, he needs to learn.
And shut dwarers.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Why he didn't shut the drawers?
No!
It's so weird.
It's the weirdest thing ever.
Because I know, for instance, I know you can bring up his at the Air Force Academy.
He's in the military.
He knows how to shut a drawer.
Yeah.
I'm sure.
He also knows how to say drawer.
Yeah, not dwarf.
Yeah.
I'll let it slip the first time.
I heard that.
I heard that.
You've said it twice, Amy.
That's how I say drawer.
You're saying like a dwarf.
Yeah.
A drawer.
You got set the door.
It's because it's got a double you.
Research links to washing dishes and how that's the number one most fought about chore.
Men who take turns in at least washing dishes prove to have a more successful family life.
But for you, it's folding clothes.
For me, yeah, it's folding things and just throwing them wherever that you think they go instead of learning where they go.
Does he just leave his underwear on the floor or anything like that?
No, he's pretty good about putting stuff in the hamper.
Yeah.
He's not totally messy.
That's why it's so weird he doesn't shut drawers.
Yeah, I would just check out of saying that word.
Tell me how I'm supposed to say it and I'll repeat after you.
Just dra.
Dra?
Yeah, drar.
Dwar.
Oh, my goodness.
It's an episode of Friends where Joey's learning French.
Oh, yeah, that's a great one.
And Phoe's like, see if we played, he's like, go-go-gong-gaw.
I have a speech impediment.
Yeah, yeah.
I know.
And we weren't even going to bring it up, but you kept saying it.
Well, I didn't even know I was saying it wrong until y'all, everyone's looking at me weird.
It's like when I say Crown.
Amy's husband.
So your 7-year-old son has a tablet, and he uses that for lots of things, right?
Yeah, mostly games, like apps, learning apps, and then some, like, car games or something.
I don't know.
So what did he find on it?
Well, it's not really supposed to be for music.
and but my son really wanted that whip nay-ne-ne-a song.
Watch me whip. Play that song. Watch me whip. Watch me na-ne. Yeah. Watch me whip. Yeah. Watch me whip.
And also when my daughter and my son do the dance, it's just so cute and they have so much fun dancing.
And I don't really know if whip-n-n-n-n-n-a is appropriate for a seven-year-old.
Why is it not? I don't know. It's what I'm asking. So I don't know what whip-n-n-ne-ne-me means.
I just know it's a really super cute dance. And, but my husband was like, how did this get on his
tablet. He must know our passwords. He's
buying things. Like, ugh.
And then I was guilty. I put
it on there. So now he has whipped nay-n-n-a.
And my husband thought whip-n-n-n-a
was inappropriate. But it's not.
Hey, Eddie, Google whip-n-n-n-k what that
song means. You got it. All right.
Turn it up. Okay.
Now watch me whip.
Watch me-n-n-a.
I've seen some of those
kids' compilations do this song, so it can
can be bad if that's about that. Okay.
Well, my husband's out of touch. He doesn't know.
You know? All he hears is.
You're out of touch too, Amy.
No, no, no, I'm not.
You don't even know who Cardi B is, and she's the biggest thing in music now, period.
I know who Cardi B is?
No, like two weeks ago, you're like, who's that?
Don't even act like.
Oh, well, for the last two weeks, I've been jamming out of some Cardi B.
Stop it.
Two weeks ago, the whole show looked at me like I had a purple head.
I was talking about some, you were like, I don't know what Cardi B is.
I was like, what?
I know Cardi B.
And I know Whit Mnay-Nay, and I know it for a few years.
It's been out for a long time.
But the dance is cute.
And he's like, I know you can't touch this.
Eddie, what does it mean?
I hate to break it to you guys, but it's just a dance.
It's just a dance.
There's nothing dirty about it.
Oh, sweet.
So it can stay on the tablet.
Yeah.
But wasn't it more about buying music on the tablet?
It was both.
Because I did pay, I think, $1.29.
Still, that song's still $1.29.
Well, on Amazon or whatever.
It didn't go down a $0.99.
Whoa, wow.
The latest from Nashville.
Phil in Hollywood.
Amy's 32nd Skinny.
Tonight's the night that Sugar Land will be on American Idol.
They're going to be performing with a couple of contestants from the show,
along with other artists.
Like, it's a big duets night.
Yeah, Andy Grammer, Allo Black.
They have, I believe, 12 artists that are performing,
and some of them are also tonight.
So last night was the much-heralded Bobby Bowen's mentor episode.
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, it was just, yeah.
People can't stop talking about it.
And then, I'm being facetious.
Obviously.
And then tonight, yes, it's duets with some big stars.
So yeah, watch that.
Please.
Go ahead.
What else?
Okay.
And as for movie numbers this weekend, a quiet place made $50 million.
Yeah, that's a scary movie.
I know.
It blew away the expectations.
I think scary movies in general aren't expected to make a ton of money.
John Krasinski, who played Jim on the office, who, I mean, that's really what we know him for.
He's had some other roles.
But, yeah, he directed it.
And I think starred in it with Emily Blunt, too.
Yeah, his wife.
Look at that.
I don't even like scary movies.
Mikey, is this a thinking man scary movie, or is it a Freddy Kruger?
I guess like a suspense.
Is it like a, what's that one called that was really good?
The one where the guy gets taken to the house.
Key and Pill guy directed it.
Oh, get out.
Is it like that kind?
Did you get out?
Ed, Aves seen Get Out.
Get Out is crazy.
Okay.
Amy you seen Get Out?
No, but should I?
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Because I don't watch scary movies.
I don't even really watch movies.
Uh-huh.
And I thought Get Out was really great.
It's messed up.
Okay, so I'll watch Get Out, and then I kind of want to see a quiet place now.
Yeah.
Okay, what else?
I may me, that's your 30 seconds guinea.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
Let's go.
Transmitting across America.
This is the Bobby Bones.
These things are so gross, and every time I see them, I think of you, because you love popping pimples.
And so the way that you do these bubbles, when it comes in the mail, we used to pop them all the time with our fingers.
They've now made pimple ones, and they're not real pimples, but they're these sheets of plastic where you pop fake pimples and things squirt out of them.
They're disgusting.
And I see them on Instagram and all I think is how gross you are.
Oh, me too.
I know.
All I think about is I need to order one of these.
Because even my dermatologist is like, you have to stop picking your skin.
You have to stop.
And so I'm like, ooh, this could help me stop because there's so much satisfaction.
Whenever I'm picking out my skin and like say I get anything to come out.
even if there's nothing on my skin, some way I've made something come out of my skin.
It just feels so good.
Like when I see it sorting out, there's just...
No, she's so weird, man.
It's like so gratifying.
Do you feel that way about your husband if you squeeze one on him?
Yes, and you.
Anybody.
Oh, no.
Oh, no, yeah.
She'll be like, hey.
Oh, one time, I'll never forget it.
Bobby's birthday, not this year but last year, or maybe the year before.
Anyway, we were in Las Vegas, and we were sitting in the hotel lobby.
We were there for work.
And Bobby had a situation, and it needed to be taken care of.
And lucky for him, I was there.
And it was amazing.
It was very satisfying.
Yeah, I think it was like a forceful volcano.
I was like, we met in the lobby, and I was like, what's on your nose?
Sit down.
I need to help you.
Yeah, you're disgusting.
Okay.
Over to Amy with the morning corny.
Let's go.
The morning corny.
Why did the clock get in trouble at school?
Why did the clock get in trouble at school?
Because he talked too much.
Talked.
Talked.
Oh.
Talked.
Talked.
Talked.
Talked.
Talked.
Got it.
Thank you very much.
That was the morning corny.
Yeah.
The Bobby Ball Show.
So I had done 23 in me, and I know some of you other guys are doing it.
But Raymond, our first.
producer did it. Now you may remember Raymond
forever he was Ray
and Ray works in the glass room
5 foot 6
from Michigan
and he's like hey I like to change my name
to Raymond. And why was that
Raymond? Just that's on my birth
certificate honestly. Yeah. And it's a more
I guess 32 year old name.
Adult name. Yeah. So I've been
through the change with him. I now
call him Raymond. In my heart
in my head he's always Raymond and down. You're 100%
in. I'm about 95. Sometimes I'll slip and call
him Ray, but he's Raymond to me now.
Yeah, it's hard for me because he's always been Ray Ray.
So now he has something he'd like to say regarding
23 and me. Well, I got the results back. I told you guys that. And then
I also was kind of looking at it a little bit more closely. And I noticed that I have a lot
of family that's Mexican. I have family that lives in New Mexico, in Mexico, and
then also in the Central America area in Espanola Island. Really? So what
percentage? Do you know? Less than 1%. Okay, but still some. A couple.
Okay, dude.
And out of the states in America, it's honestly mainly Spanish-speaking states in southern California and New Mexico.
So I thought maybe I should go by a name that I used to go by when I had a Spanish class that I was enrolled in.
Ramundo.
Yes.
I want to be called Ramundo.
Okay.
You're like that.
He's not puppies.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or puffing.
Yeah.
And it's all up to you guys because we say our names here.
And lunch gets to be called lunchbox.
Eddie, you get to.
be called Eddie and Bones is not really his real name, Bones.
So can I be Raymundo?
Well, the issue isn't not with you being Raymundo, but you've changed your name three times.
Yeah, that's tough. It's confusing.
So like even when you do, I mean, you're going to be Ramundo all the time.
Like, say you get an endorsement deal.
Like, hey, it's Ramundo.
Are you going to say with the accent?
I could.
Okay, go ahead.
With my big three news stories, what I would say is, all right, here's your big three news stories with
Ramundo, the producer.
I mean, we can try it out for a while.
I'm down.
Yeah, we'll just see how it goes.
Okay.
Ramundo, thank you.
Congratulations on your heritage.
Much gusto.
Yeah, much of gusto.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, there we go.
On Twitter and Instagram at Mr. Bobbybon.
So I spent the weekend doing two stand-up comedy shows.
I went to Charlottesville, and man, the people there are so nice.
They came from all over, all over the state, all over the area.
Went to Pittsburgh.
Loved it.
There was snow on the ground.
It was crazy.
It was like driving into Alaska.
We thought there was going to be a huge snow.
storm and it ended up being fine but it is great like the people that come out to these shows and they
drive sometimes 20 minutes or four and five hours it's crazy that people drive that far to come
watch me do comedy i'm so appreciative but i always feel like i'm guilty i was like oh sorry you drove so far
you know one of those but at a good weekend uh the drama happened though on the way
from Pittsburgh to Austin, Texas, which is where I am right now.
And so I'm at the airport, and it's early yesterday morning,
and in my bag, I have my dog's ashes because, like, to me, Austin is home.
And I got my dog, who passed away a couple weeks ago, he was almost 15 years old.
I got him in Austin, and I've never lived alone without my dog, ever.
And so my hope was to take these ashes.
and spread them out in the backyards of the three places that we lived in Austin.
And some say it's dumb.
I've been told that it's dumb.
But I think it's, for me, it's a nice little closure piece.
Because I'm going to do it here and they go do it at the places we lived in Nashville.
And so I get to the airport in Pittsburgh and I see my bag through and they stop the bag and they pull it to the side.
And I look on the screen, you know how you can see the screen.
You can kind of see what's in your bag, all the colors.
They have the shapes.
and there's a big circle around the bag of ashes.
And so they pull it out and the woman goes,
this is too much.
You can't take this much through.
What?
Yeah, I know.
And I'm like, what do you mean?
She goes, well, it's over a certain amount of ounces.
I said, well, these are my dog's ashes.
They're labeled.
I left the label on there just in case from the vet.
And she goes, yeah, I know, but you can't take those ashes through.
And at this point, I'm not getting upset at the rule.
I'm getting upset because I don't like talking about my dog dying.
Yeah.
And so I'm starting to get a little bit upset.
I can feel like my eyes getting a little hot and my throat welling up a little bit.
And I'm like, hey, listen, just please don't take my dog's ashes.
And I could tell that it was, to her, she would just say, hey, go ahead and go.
But she didn't want to get in trouble.
And so she goes and talks to one of the other side people and they have a long conversation.
He comes over and he takes the ashes
And he picks him up and looks at him
And he looks at behind them
And he goes, just go
And puts them back in the bag
And I go up
But then I thought
What if I really was trying to get anthrax through
And just said it with my dog's ashes?
Well, I know
I'm sure that's something they have to take
into consideration is people that lie
But how do they know I'm not lying?
They trusted you
Because they could tell
In your face, I'm sure
Oh, I was a mess
I was about to be a mess real quick
And they did let it through
and I'm going to go do that after the show today.
Like, it's the plan today is go
dump them out and there's those places.
But it almost, ooh, man, I don't think
I would have left. I think I would have taken the ashes
and went back out of the airport.
Yeah, I put money
on you that option all the way.
There's no way. I was going to let them throw them away. There's no way.
No. I was going to walk home. I was going to walk from
Pittsburgh to Texas. Yeah. If I had
to. So I put it on my answer
story as it was happening and I was like,
oh my God, don't
take them. And they didn't. And so I got a
Shout out to the TSA in Pittsburgh that they were cool.
I don't know why they were cool.
I don't know if there's the dog Ash expert.
You could tell they were ashes and not anthrax.
But end of the stories.
I have my ashes here and it was close.
And so I want to go do that today.
And yesterday I was, it's a weird thing too because, again, it's two or two weeks away from this happening.
And so, you know, I should be over it, apparently.
That's not true, but okay.
People come up and they'll say stuff to me random.
I was walking down the road yesterday and someone stops me and goes, hey,
I'm really sorry about your dog.
And it's this weird thing of, I'm so grateful that someone cares enough about me and my situation to randomly stop me.
But at the same time, like, oh, don't bring that up.
Don't bring that up.
It's weird.
It's like when someone dies.
Like, I remember when my mom died, I just didn't want to hear from anybody ever, but I wanted to hear from everybody ever.
Yeah.
It's a weird place to be.
It's a weird, yeah.
Because it's good to know that people care of it, then the reminder's hard.
You're right.
it's in the text message, I think.
I think that's the middle ground of it.
A good solid text.
Yeah, but if you run into someone
and they don't want to ignore the fact that you've just
gone through something crazy,
like losing your mom or a dog and not mentioning it.
Well, that should walk off and then text me.
Except for, like, that one time after my mom died,
and then we had the opposite happen.
Someone asked me how my mom was doing.
Oh, Amy, in the studio, like a week ago?
Yeah?
I won't say who it is, but
someone came in
and they go, hey, it's like
an artist person, they go, hey, how's your dog?
Real loud.
And everybody's head goes,
who, over to me.
Yeah, no, mine was an artist, too.
I don't know.
I wonder, like, they're not get filled in
about your dog at all?
Well, they cared.
I just said, oh, he's good, he's good, he's good.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I just didn't want them to feel weird.
No, I didn't want to be like,
he died!
No, no.
No, no, no.
So, yeah, that was a deal.
But I got him here.
Ashes are here.
I'm going to go do it today.
I do appreciate all the nice messages as much as I deflect from it and don't like to talk about it.
I do appreciate it.
Who did it with you?
Who's the artist?
Oh, you know, you want to say?
No, because he's the coolest.
Oh, that's okay.
No, we love him.
Okay.
Well, they don't say it.
Well, the person that did it to me, too, was awesome, too.
And they were like, how's the dog?
Oh, yeah, he is the coolest.
I know.
He's the cold is.
Yeah, that's right.
He's like, how's your mom?
Your mom passed away.
Yeah, yeah.
I was like, oh.
But, I mean, I wasn't like, she's fine because that's awkward.
I was like, yeah, she didn't make it a few months ago.
Oh, that sucks.
Oh, man.
I remember that.
Here's the difference.
I mean, I remember that now that you say that.
I turned my head away because it was like a car wreck.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks a lot.
I remember it.
I remember it.
He asked, and I turned my back and I just got out of that conversation because I didn't
want to be a part of how awkward that was.
Whenever this artist asked about my dog,
everybody stuck their head and see how I was going to handle it.
Like, everyone was drawn to it.
You just said, fine.
Well, yeah, and that's why I said, I was like, oh, it's fine.
And then I got a text from him, like, two hours later going, oh, my God,
someone just told me your dog was dead.
And I was like, We call.
Crystal, how are you?
I'm good.
How are you?
I'm good.
So, everybody listening, here's what happened.
This is Crystal.
Crystal's the mom.
And Crystal tweeted me weeks ago.
go, just randomly, and said, hey, my daughter Zoe is in ninth grade, lives near Sacramento,
and she's doing this charity fundraiser for children's cancer research.
I said, hey, I'd like to be involved, so I donated some money.
And then I started feeling guilty because I thought Zoe would have to shave her head,
and that's where we kind of became friendly, right?
Is it accurate story?
Absolutely.
Okay.
So I said, oh, I don't know.
I don't know if I'm going to feel guilty if she's just to shave her head because that's what happened
if you raised enough money.
And so,
uh,
smash cut to Friday
and Zoe,
a freshman at Oakmont High
in Roseville,
had raised $2,700,
$75 and she had to shave her head bald, right?
Yep.
And how, man,
how was that?
It was,
it just went really fast,
and then I just kept looking at her.
With no air.
She had a lot of hair before.
And she raised them.
Oh,
a picture with,
with a pile of hair.
She raised the most money, huh?
Yes, yeah, she did.
I think she had $2,800 at the end of it,
and then we still had some checks that haven't posted yet.
We gave them to them on Friday.
Well, look at that.
Yeah.
Is Zoe there?
She is.
Can I speak to her, please?
You sure can.
Hang on.
Hi.
Zoe, what up?
Hi.
How are you feeling right now?
Cold?
Yeah, my head, it was raining the day they did it.
So when I walked outside, I was like, what the heck?
There's, like, water on my head.
It's so weird.
Have you washed your head yet?
I still haven't really figured that out, but, like, kind of.
How did it feel having your head shaved?
Is it pretty weird?
It's really weird.
I keep looking in random mirrors that are around my house and, like, forgetting I'm bald.
And I'm like, whoa, that's me.
Well, I think what you did was totally selfless.
You raised a ton of money, which I think is awesome, too.
and so I'm trying to call you and put you on the radio again.
I think this is the third time we've talked on the air
and let me speak for our show and our listeners
and say that we're very proud of you.
And once it got close and somebody else was catching you, by the way,
I didn't feel guilty anymore that you might have to shave your head.
I started to get competitive.
So I got everybody re-rallied again and we donated more.
Yeah, that was pretty great.
I met the person that almost beat me,
and they were actually like really nice.
They weren't bitter that you dominated them?
No.
To me, it got a little competitive.
I was a little competitive, Zoe, at the end.
I was a little crushed when I woke up and saw that we weren't winning.
But then BT and you guys all pulled it together, and it was crazy.
Well, Zoe, thank you.
I put you on my Instagram.
I put the video up there.
I think what you did was awesome.
And, man, keep on.
That's crazy.
You shaved your head.
That's a lot of hair.
But we wanted to get you on and say congratulations and what you're doing is awesome.
All right, Zoe?
Thank you so much.
All right, thank you for listening, Zoe, and we'll let you go.
And good luck back at school.
And, man, it's going to take a while to grow back.
But I think it looks awesome.
Maybe you want to stay with this look.
Maybe I'll stay bald.
I don't know.
All right, bye, Zoe.
Tell you your mom, I said bye, too, okay?
Okay.
All right, bye, guys.
Bye.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
Well, last night was my first mentoring on American Idol.
As I've been dubbed America's mentor.
Yeah.
It's all anybody's talking about.
Like everywhere I've been today so far, which has really just been work.
Just the studio?
But I mean, I'm sure, like coffee shops.
Yeah, everywhere you go.
Everywhere.
You know, I'll say this.
I spent about 90 minutes with each of the contestants through two and a half weeks
because we shot for a couple days and we wouldn't shoot and we shoot for a couple days.
And then they use about a minute and a half or so.
Yeah.
Because it's a TV show.
You've got to cram in with performances and judges' crum.
critique and everything. Yeah, I've been thinking about that. I feel like I need those other
88 and a half minutes. Yeah? Like, I need to know what nuggets we missed out on because
last night there was some solid advice. Oh, now you're making fun of me. Now you make a fun of me.
I am not. I was so proud of you and I think that you did awesome and I feel like we need,
I want the extra footage. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe we'll get some specials on Netflix.
The unseen. Just me with these random contestants. So that's
That's what happened.
It was on American Idol last night.
I hope you watched.
I'll be on again next Sunday night, doing it again.
But here are some clips that I haven't heard yet.
Here we go.
This is a clip.
Me talking to a contestant.
Here we go.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
Hands down on my favorite clips of the night.
Like, I'm probably going to quote you a lot using that.
You know, I nailed that one.
Yeah, and I live by that.
I'm like, yes.
You just validated me being an emotional or whatever I'm feeling.
Just feel it.
Whatever you are, be it.
What do I tell you when you do this show?
Don't act like something you're not.
If you're emotional, be emotional.
Be emotional.
And so, yeah, that has led to me.
But you know what?
It's right.
It's like being authentic and relatable.
And some people are in their cars laughing with us.
Some people are in their cars crying with us.
It works.
Like, that was good advice.
And some people in their cars are going, man, Bobby is such an idiot.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
And there's like dramatic music behind it too?
That's so deep.
Yeah, hey.
If you're feeling hot, turn the air conditioner on.
Yeah.
If you're feeling hungry, eat.
If your hair is dirty, wash it.
Oh, come on.
Come on.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
There you go.
Good job, Vones.
Man, nailed that one, huh?
Yeah, you did.
If you feel tired, sleep.
Sleep.
Oh, man.
I love it.
I love it.
That's good.
That's good.
You know, people take that into their work day today.
You don't have so many people that would be, like, crying at work.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But America's mentor gave me permission to just be me.
Yeah.
If you're feeling super emotional, be.
Super emotional.
Yeah, yeah.
You didn't leave out the other super.
You didn't say like, if you're feeling super emotional, just be emotional.
But you're like, super.
No, no, I need to really drive at home.
It hit that super twice.
Yeah, that was awesome.
And the pause was just right.
If you're being super emotional, be super emotional.
No, you forgot the pause.
That pause is everything.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
You're right.
The pause is great.
Yes.
I felt the pause.
Pause immediately.
I was like, oh.
I'm such a tool, man.
I stand by that advice for that situation, but yes, it is come off as a dork.
All right.
Let's see.
I'm talking to Michelle, and she is from South America.
I was like, hey, you should be proud of where you're from because what happens is
these new artists and they haven't done a lot of stage work.
They think they should just do what's on TV or what they see.
So they should mimic someone else.
I was like, no, no, no, no, be you.
Be proud of where you're from.
Put that in your performances.
Okay.
If she wants to dance on stage like she dances at home, do it.
And don't forget this.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
Man, that may be a T-shirt right there.
But the T-shirt better have that.
Pause.
Pause.
It's like, dot, dot, dot.
Here, this is me talking to Katie about picking songs that leave impressions on people.
Keep leaving the impressions like this and sing songs that leave an impression to.
God, I want to write that down on my phone right now.
Pick songs that leave impression on PPL people.
Like, has she never heard that before?
Not from someone like America's mentor.
I know.
I feel like I should stop and write that down too.
Yeah, immediately with your phone.
If I can say one thing, let me say one thing.
The one thing I will say from all this America,
all experience is this.
If you're feeling super emotional,
be super emotional.
There it is.
Yeah.
That's the best.
There you go.
Thank you.
You're going to have to hone in
on what type of artist
do you want America to know you for.
Boom.
That's a good one.
Thank you very much.
I like that word hone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I should say super honed.
So, yeah, that's a thing.
That happened last night.
It's a thing.
It's a thing.
Yeah, you think it's pretty good?
It's pretty bad aim?
What?
We're proud of me?
Are you sad for me?
100% proud of you.
Yeah?
Legit.
Proud.
Like, whole family.
My whole family's proud of you.
What'd your kids think about that?
They're like, boobie's on TV.
Bobby, booby, boffy's on TV.
They're proud.
They think I'm cooler than you?
Oh, I don't know about that.
Yes, they already did.
Like, it didn't take you being on TV.
I'm not cool.
Don't worry.
Sit them down and say,
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
There you go.
I explained to them that I said, yeah, Bobby on TV right now,
you should go and ask him for some American girl doll stuff because he's no voice on TV.
America's Mender can hook you up with some American girl dolls.
Yeah, yeah, same company, right?
America.
Do you ever go get your nails done, Amy?
Yes.
So there's a woman and she goes to get her nails done at a local salon in Phoenix.
And she got a small cut on her finger, just tiny cut.
And so she'd been going to the salon for a long time, never had an issue.
And her finger started to swell up a day after the nail appointment.
And after the swelling, she went back to the store and they said, oh, well, we're sorry about that.
How about a $100 compensation?
Just a little gift card for your trouble.
So if you just clean that cut, it'll go away.
But the injury only got worse.
It was a small cut on the side of her finger.
now it's a large open wound all the way down to the bone.
She had to go to the hospital, get surgery.
It's a severe infection.
And they're saying now she may have to amputate her finger.
That's not good.
What happened?
I mean, what's happening in this?
Well, I mean, I could assume maybe there was some sort of her situation that wasn't sterile.
I mean, you're sometimes when I'm putting my feet in the pedicure bin, like if I'm getting a pedicure and they're filling up the little bucket thing, I'm like, oh, this is.
This is really clean.
And I love it when I see them pull the utensils fresh out of a new baggy so you know that it's like sterile and new.
But then other times I see stuff just like they pull it out of a box and start using it on me.
And I'm like, no.
Oh.
I don't know.
Something like that.
Maybe just got in with the open wound.
She got contaminated somehow.
Man, that stinks.
That stinks.
I mean, that's how you lose a finger.
It's going to get your, your, my mom, she used to, whenever she was studying to be.
a manicurist?
Yeah.
I was her test subject, so I got my nails done all the time.
Like...
That they look good.
They look too good.
And let's just say your boy, Bobby here,
sometimes fingernails like a little too good.
And that wasn't very cool where I went to school.
Oh, wasn't it, though?
No, it wasn't.
Well, I mean, but she kept them clear, right,
or did you go with paint?
Well, it just depended.
So most of the time it was clear, and she would do...
She had nobody else to do it on.
Yeah, but she had to practice the filing, the buffing.
All of it.
Oh, probably.
pushing back the cuticles and trimming your...
Yep, all that.
And so I was...
My sister, too.
My sister was younger than I was, and still is.
You know, four years or so.
But she basically had two sets of hands.
It was mostly mine, because they were more adult-like.
And so I have my nails done all the time.
And I love my mom, and I wanted her to have a job, and she studied hard to get it.
And but...
It wasn't easy at school, man.
Oh.
Especially because she put it on and we do...
I don't know if you still have...
fingernail polish
remover?
Do you still have that?
Yeah.
Okay.
So you'd start after she'd do my nails
and paint my finger.
Oh man, this brings back some crazy memories.
We'd take the fingernail polish removal
and try to get it off and it wouldn't all come off.
And so I go to school with partially painted fingernails.
And I know you think, Bob, you're so masculine.
People probably just gave you the benefit of the doubt.
Right.
And be that, Bob, you're a man's man.
You know, probably in high school, you're probably still a man's man.
You know.
Totally.
Nope.
Not at all.
Oh, that added to the picking on you.
It's a rough go, man.
It was, yeah.
So there's that.
Good luck to that woman with her finger.
Yeah, maybe just if you've got a cut on your hand, don't.
Wait, wait until you go to get your nails done?
No, no, I think they cut her hand.
Oh, they're the ones that cut it?
Oh, dear.
I believe so.
Give me that story again.
Sorry, I thought she just had a cut on her hand and she decided to go get her nails done.
She was getting her nails done when she received a small cut on her finger.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, they did it.
Wow, so they're going to owe her a lot.
A finger.
They should all have to give her a finger.
So there's Amy finished watching Wild Wild Country on Netflix,
which is a documentary about this cult in Oregon.
Yeah.
And it was in the 80s.
I didn't even know what happened, which is crazy because this is America.
I feel like I know all the big things that happen in America.
They had no idea.
What did you think of the show?
I thought it was fascinating.
I couldn't wait to get to the end, but I couldn't binge it like I wanted to.
So it was really, really hard.
And once I got to the end, I was like, huh, that happened here.
Oregon.
Yeah.
And the people are still alive that lived through it and they're in it and they're being
interviewed and it's just interesting to see their take.
I'm just watching it way years in the future, but those people have lived it and
sometimes they have to wake up and be like, this is real life.
Like this happened to me.
How bizarre.
It's crazy that that cult bought, you know, 80,000 acres of land.
When you square it out, it was 100 square miles.
They bought 100 miles of land.
built a city. Yes, and they finagled their way into, you know, running towns and voting and other
crazy things. I don't want to give anything too crazy away, but I cannot believe some of the
stuff that they learned. The fact that you can buy that much land, though, because you could
buy land and an hour still not cover the land, get to point A, B. Like, you can't drive there.
Like, I just always compare it driving from Hot Springs to Little Rock as a kid. That was so far,
and it was 60 miles, you know, Little Rock.
And I'm going, man, that's still, they had all.
All that.
Yeah, so watch Wild Wild Country.
Eddie, have you seen it yet?
Haven't seen it yet, Bones.
You'd love it.
As much TV as you watch, you should watch that show.
Mostly cartoons, but, yeah, once in a while I'll watch an adult show.
When the kids go to bed, you watch shows.
Yeah, I do.
I mean, we're still trying to finish the crown and stuff like that and sneaky Pete on Amazon, but I'll get to it.
You're watching still El Chapo, Amy?
Yeah.
They're doing the jury right now for El Chapo.
and so their secret, the jury is,
and they're having to fill out these questionnaires.
But the thing is, I just wouldn't be on the jury.
No, I had flee to somewhere.
There's no way I would be on that jury.
The El Chapo jury, because he's, somebody's going to kill you.
He's bad, dude.
Yeah.
And that show you're watching Netflix is about the early days of El Chapo or what?
Yeah, and we just started season two.
Oh, wow.
And here's the thing.
It was the best surprise ever because I didn't even realize
there was a season two.
And my husband and I, it like rolls right into the next season.
And we both look to each other like, oh yeah.
Like life just got good.
And we had put the kids to bed early on Saturday night.
Like we were ready for El Chapo.
It was so good.
Well, so there's some shows for you.
Y'all ever, is that bad?
I mean, we literally like told our, we didn't tell our kids it was later, but we acted
like it was way later than it was.
Like, it's totally bedtime on a Saturday night.
Like, y'all need to go to bed because we wanted to watch.
Jal Jopel.
So you basically set the clocks forward so they think it was later.
Yeah, we just didn't.
It's all good.
Yeah, we didn't lie.
We just...
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
So what is the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning?
I grab my glasses and I get my phone and I check to see what's happening on Twitter and what's happening with my bosses and why they're mad at me today.
Oh, okay.
So check your phone.
Yes.
Check my phone is the first thing I do.
I don't know what everyone else is checking their phone for,
for the same reasons,
but that is the number one thing people do right when they wake up.
And what's the second thing you do?
I urinate.
Oh, no.
Okay, well, you're different than everybody else.
And at number two, brush teeth.
And then at number three, drink coffee.
I eat first before I brush my teeth.
I brush my teeth is the last thing I do with my mouth.
Yeah.
Before I bail out.
But I always check my phone.
First thing, grab it, make sure I'm on time,
see why I'm in trouble.
You know, being the bad boy of country radio is not all it's, you know.
Cracked up to me?
You're looking gangster, like all those looking behind your back.
I'm in trouble.
You guys think I'm kidding.
I get into so much crap for little things I say.
And like artists get mad at me sometimes.
And then I just have to, and they go complain to my bosses and not to me.
And so then it's being the bad boy country radio is not all flowers.
Are you being super emotional right now?
Am I?
I don't know.
Are you?
Oh, if he is.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
Yes, I should take my own advice from American Idol last night.
All right, what else?
Okay, so what one thing would make your life better?
Oh, waking up at 11 a.m. instead of 3 a.m.
Oh, okay. No, that's not on here.
More sleep.
Nope, nope, nope. The answer is money.
Apparently a lot of people just think money would make their life better, period.
that's the one thing, followed by more time with family and friends, a more fulfilling marriage, and a more rewarding job.
Okay, well, listen, I've been able to make more money over the past five or six years.
If you don't know my story, I grew up really poor.
I'm not really poor anymore.
I tell you, you just, you're either messed up or you're not.
Like, really, you're either goofed up in your heart and your head or you're not.
Money hasn't changed me at all.
I'm still the same person that sits in my house alone when I'm a home and that what?
But you actually have a career and a job that you find rewarding no matter if you made $10 an hour or $50 an hour or $500 an hour.
I would have done it a whole life being broke and been happy with it.
Right.
But I also knew how to be broke and that was an advantage that I always thought was a disadvantage.
But I'll say to that also what's fulfilling.
I give a lot of my money away because I feel like it's easy to help other people.
But yeah, I wish I had a marriage
And I wish I had kids
And I wish I had
You know, I just feel like if I'm emotional
I should just be
If you're feeling super emotional
Be super emotional
Yeah
There you go, thank you.
Okay, well, I have a solution
For people that are wanting to be happier
Apparently all we got to do is a read
Study shows that reading anything
Can make you happier
Because it takes you away from your everyday concerns and problems
Gives you a little mini-mental vacation
And it makes you feel like you're doing something
super smart and good for yourself.
Are you going to read my second book?
Of course.
There's no pressure to.
I always want to,
I don't feel pressure to read it.
It's not even that good.
I mean,
I don't know if it's good or not.
I'm so inside of it.
No, I want, for one,
I want to as a friend, for sure.
For two, I'm curious.
And then for three,
I feel like as someone that works alongside you,
I need to know what you're putting out there.
Yeah, that's fair.
It's just, that's such an investment
and then people have to come up to you
and say it's good.
Like, not only one person's
of my book. Investment? I mean, do I have to pay for it? Of time. No, no, no, not you because you're in it.
But it's quite the time investment. I wrote an extra chapter, too, that didn't make the book,
and it's in the pre-order. At fightgrindrepeat.com, that's part of the pre-order. Okay, I don't think
you've ever said that. I haven't said that. I just thought about it now. I've never talked
about it. But I wrote a chapter that didn't make the book. And if you pre-order it,
fightgrindrepeat.com, fightgrindrepeat.com. It's up there. You get the lost chapter before you
get any of the chapters that are in the book.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Anyway, what else?
Okay, well, I have what is causing the most stress in our lives, and a survey finds that a
high percentage of us are worrying about lack of sleep.
Oh, that's me.
All me.
No sleep.
If I got more sleep, my life would be totally different.
Lack of sleep, a demanding job and money creates the most stress intention in our lives.
Yeah, man, those bills, like medical bills, I can see being completely stressed out about
that. I had to go back to the dentist, you know, on the road because I'd get my tooth fill. I couldn't
take it anymore. I had a tooth missing forever. And it's very kind of him because he stayed open
a little late, but he wasn't my normal dentist. And so he didn't have my bedside manner than I'm used to
because I'm quite the Padinsky. And so he just shoved that tooth on up in there, man. It was a little sore.
You were used to that? Yeah. Man, he just shoved it up there too. But yeah, it's good. All right.
I mean, Amy, that's my pile.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
Let's go.
Transmitting across America.
This is the Bobby Boll.
You know what I had that was really good?
Was P.F. Chang's this weekend?
Oh, did you get the Dantan noodles?
Nope.
Sure didn't.
I got the...
I think we all have our favorite thing.
Would you go, ooh, did you get that?
Because I love the lemon shrimp and the Mongolian beef.
And that's what I got...
So we were in Pittsburgh, and what happens is we eat before the stand-up shows.
And there was a P.
P.F. Chang's.
I love P.F. Chang.
I just haven't had it a long time.
And it's a delight.
It was a delight to eat that food.
You're making me want it because I haven't had it in forever.
And, yeah, it was good.
Yeah, it was good.
But what's your thing, Eddie?
Do you have P.F. Chang's item, Eddie?
Oh, I haven't been there a while, but I think it's the one with, like, chicken and peanuts in it.
Ooh, it's good.
Unless you know the name of it, it doesn't count.
Yeah.
Let's call it chicken peanut.
Well, D&Dan noodles.
the way to go. Let me run this by you, Am.
Okay. So I'm moving, you know,
once my dog passed away, I'm moving
out of that house. And I only
bought the house because my other place
flooded and I had to find a place. And so I got a backyard
for my dog. It's very important that he had a backyard in his
last year or so alive. And so
now, I'm kind of looking around. Do I want a swimming pool?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, for sure. You do.
Wait. Yeah. Yep. Yep. Yeah.
Yeah. I think you do. Totally. Yeah, you do for sure.
And you probably want to invite us over.
Have kids over. Bring the kids over.
Why that's why you're not home, we just have access.
Of course.
You know, because you're on the road a lot.
We can help.
Listen, I know how to clean a pool.
I used to be a lifeguard.
Yeah.
Like, I know how to get the little, you know, leaf thing and scoop all the leaves out.
We're good.
I know to clean the drains.
I've never had someone pool in my life, even never thought about it.
But some of the places, because I have to live in, like, secure places so people don't come, like, rob me.
Yeah.
There are swimming pools in some of these places, like houses.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, make sure you got Polly the Poli the Polis.
Loris to clean the bottom.
Oh, the one that crawls on its own?
Yeah, yeah.
I've been looking at it.
Okay.
I'll even buy you, Polly.
That's not, should I have a party?
Like, but when I think of a pool party, I think I like a lot of adults and it's like, you know.
Well, you can have those two bones.
We don't have to talk about the kids of those.
Oh, you get to come to both, Eddie, the kid party to any adult party?
Wait, but what's happening at this adult party?
Like, why couldn't kids be there?
I don't.
Drinking, bikinis and loud music.
Well, Bobby is not having that kind of party at his house.
It's just not happening.
What if this is the thing that would make it happen?
I don't know.
I just don't even, my brain won't even picture it.
You can't picture me partying?
No.
Loud music.
No, I picture Bobby's pool being like, maybe there's one of those, you know, unicorn blow up.
Like floating things.
I'm so lame that Amy goes, I can't imagine loud music at your party.
Not that bikinis.
or is just a loud music.
Like, well, loud, like adult only, drinking, like,
yeah.
Fights.
You know.
Fights?
No.
Who said fights?
See?
I told you.
I don't really know what to imagine.
Like, I'm just, like, in my head, I'm like, I don't know what's happening.
I don't picture you having that.
All right.
I'll let you know how it's going.
I'm looking.
We'll send us our options.
Okay.
Amy, what's going on?
Amy, what's going on today?
I am.
I'm going to be doing yoga and working on outfits for Vegas this weekend.
One of our friends is helping me and picking up the kids.
So do you pretty much have your adult schedule down now?
Yeah, pretty much.
I don't know.
Some days are different, but yeah, I feel like I've got it down.
Like I've got a window where I've got my me time where I can do it.
And I love that I can still fit in working out because there was a time where I wasn't
and I was eating bad kid food and I wasn't working out and I wasn't feeling great.
and now that we're in a rhythm, I'm like, oh, thank you.
I feel like I'm getting back to myself.
And how are the kids feeling?
They're feeling great.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Not that I think that jinxing is real, but I don't know jinxed it.
They're feeling great.
How are you feeling?
I mean, I'm feeling good.
I'm going to go today right for the show.
I have to spread my dog's ashes today.
Oh, dear.
So that's what I'm doing today.
I wish that I know you're doing it alone and that makes sense, but I don't know.
I hate that you're doing it alone at the same time.
You still doing it alone?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm not letting anybody see me like that.
What about right after that?
I'm probably going to go lay down.
Yeah, I know.
And yell at the ceiling.
Why?
I'm sorry.
I know that's going to be hard.
Yeah, it did be good.
I'll be glad when it's over.
Okay.
So that's what I'm doing today.
Idols on again tonight.
I will not be on it tonight.
I won't be on again until next Sunday.
Thank you for all the nice messages about American Idol.
And I guess that's it.
We're going to wrap up. Come back tomorrow.
Yeah, but I feel like it would only be appropriate to end this show.
You know, if we gave some advice to some people listening, you know?
Yeah, here you go.
If you're feeling super emotional, be super emotional.
There it is.
Some of that America's mentor advice from last night.
I felt that.
