The Bobby Bones Post Show pre-show. Whenever we start this thing, I really have nothing on my
that we talk about was not a plan
for this so sometimes you're hearing me going
we're going to do it because we literally just finished up
the show. I'm looking at the list of stuff
that we didn't get to. I think we pretty much got
to everything. I guess the only one that
the only story we didn't get to that I have here on the list
of things we might was this guy who was wrongly
diagnosed with cancer. Did you guys see this story?
No, no, but man, that's terrible. Did he go
through treatment? So a Missouri man who
allegedly told, who was told he had terminal cancer is suing his
three doctors. After a special
determined he was actually suffering from a treatable
inflammatory disease.
The 52-year-old man said he had started making
funeral arrangements. Oh.
Checking out his life insurance policy.
After they said, hey, you have cancer in your lungs and your
liver. He sought help
on January 2017 for flu-like symptoms.
When home broke the news.
They confirmed diagnosis. Obviously, his family
was devastated. He went to an appointment
and later on, they discovered
the error. And so
he is suing doctors
saying it caused him and his family unnecessary
pain and suffering.
I don't know what the rule of a doctor is, like the law of a doctor, I guess.
Is it to give your absolute best judgment with what is provided to you?
Because if so, and they did that, they didn't do anything wrong.
Right, I agree.
That's not something I'm going to sue over.
Now, if I had to spend money and, like, I don't know, my insurance is, whatever,
if I invested in treatment for that, then I think I should be reimbursed.
But I'm not going to sue for, I mean, is it an emotional thing?
Yes.
And did it cause distress?
Absolutely.
But they weren't being malicious.
They didn't do it on purpose.
Well, and again, is it a law that doctors are right?
That's the question.
Because if it's not, and they didn't do it maliciously,
how do you legally punish someone for something they didn't do wrong?
Yeah.
They're humans.
Yeah.
They misdiagnosed.
Again, I'm not sticking up for anyone.
I'm just trying to find where I stand on this without getting the personal emotion.
If that sucks, that's sad.
It sucks.
So what would you do?
You wouldn't, you wouldn't, I don't, I know you, you wouldn't sue.
I wouldn't sue.
But I'm talking about if I were the judge in this case, I probably wouldn't, just from the
overview of the facts that I read about the story, I probably would not award the man money.
Oh, what if he went and bought a Bentley just because he thought he was dying so he wanted
to go out and style?
But again, the doctors used, again, I'm only using assumptions that the doctors did
their best job and used the equipment and tools they had.
The doctors did their best job possible with what they had.
They didn't do anything to affect him in a negative.
negative way on purpose. They genuinely tried to diagnose and help him. So why should they suffer
if they didn't do anything wrong legally? Why should they legally suffer if they did, yeah,
they messed up. Or maybe the stuff they had wasn't quite good enough to diagnose it right.
Yeah. And I'm sure they're thinking, how can we learn from this? Yeah. So I don't know if I'm a
judge by those facts that I can award him money. Yeah. It sucks because he should get something.
But another weird perspective is that if someone tells you you're dying and you live like you live like you were dying for whatever and then you think you got the second chance now all of a sudden now you're not dying, I've got a whole new look on life.
So you should pay them.
I mean, this is a gift.
You're like that a lot of people don't go through.
It's tough though to be able to do that and go, ooh, I don't want to award him with anything.
That's why I'd be a good judge because I can separate the personal.
And to your point, doctors should totally be protected in that.
If they are given their best judgment, that's what they're paid for.
I mean, they're not, they don't know everything.
They're not supposed to get it right 100% of the time.
They're not going to.
You hope they do.
Yeah.
You know, the thing about self-driving cars, you can get over to that.
And people are like, oh, I don't know about self-driving cars.
Don't you understand that we humans will air so much more than a self-driving car whatever?
Yeah, they hit someone occasionally.
There aren't that many out there.
But once we get, I can't wait for self-driving cars.
It's going to be so much safer than humans.
I cannot believe you want to do that.
No, but lunchbox.
Think about it.
Airplanes are all self-driving.
flying? That's what I was going to say. Every time you fly, you're on autopilot.
Dude, all the stuff that you don't know is on auto is on auto. You're just not comfortable
with it because you haven't seen it or experienced it. Humans are so dumb. There's a reason
that humans are building, that robots are building things now because humans doing it are slower
and not as effective, not as efficient. Doing it wrong. Bonds, you're going to be okay,
sit in a car that's driving itself and you take a nap. No! Like, no way to do you. At first, no. At first,
no. Oh, the anxiety. It's going to be uncomfortable because we don't know any different.
Imagine the first person to go up in an airplane period,
just relying on whatever those tools are that lifts you into the air.
Amelia Earhart.
Not Emilio Airheart.
There's no person that's Emilio Airheart.
Amelia Airhart.
He was Mexican.
Anything new feels dangerous until it's not anymore.
Think about a car doing 60 miles an hour the first time.
Oh, yeah.
Like, wow, I'm not on a horse.
And we're going this fast.
anytime I could veer.
It's always nutty until it's normal.
I get what you're saying.
And I think humans are overall more efficient than robots are more efficient than humans.
There's the reason that...
It's crazy because humans invented the robots.
It's true.
How ironic.
We can't program ourselves.
Put the chip in my brain.
But that's why later in life that a lot of these jobs that are being filled by robots,
they're going to be
more thinking jobs
are going to be
better paying.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
There's going to be a need for the arts more so.
Because robots can't think.
A robot.
I just saw a robot had a painting for sale.
It's terrible.
The first AI.
It's not good?
What does it look like?
My dog painted something, Amy, too, back in the day.
I mean, come on.
Well, I'm just saying it's just the beginning.
Maybe they'll get good at art.
Creativity.
Yeah, I'm for it.
You know, I think in China they have that 5G.
We only have 4G here we saw it compared to China.
You know, they're investing in their schools and they're hardcore.
They have 5G and what 5G can do is they can actually run the system for the self-driving cars.
Like they can place them and move them.
There's just like the internet for us, the Wi-Fi, it's like that, but like 17 layers stronger.
Oh.
Sounds smart.
I don't know.
It's happening.
You can get on or you can not.
I'll probably stay off for a little while.
Until everyone's doing it and safe.
He's still, he's still males.
checks.
Yeah.
I heard you went to the ATM with a check.
Oh, yeah, I did.
I went to the, I had a check for 200 bucks,
and I was at the gas station.
I was like, oh, it says ATM inside because people say you can deposit it at the ATM.
So I put it in.
And my wife said, you idiot, you know you have to go to your bank.
It has to be your bank ATM, but I don't know.
That's not true.
It's not.
So did it work?
I got to go by the bank and look.
Oh, okay, it used to not be true because when I had paper checks,
it's what I would just go to any ATM, I put it in.
What?
You can just slip a check.
I don't know anymore.
I don't know. I don't know anymore.
But I used to get, but I would go, to be safe, I would go to my bank.
Because everybody tries to tell me I need to embrace technology, so I saw an ATM and I was like, I'll go try this.
Why not go to your...
Well, because I was getting gas. I just saw the ATM and it just hit me all. I got a check in my wallet.
You went to the convenience store ATM. All right.
That's where I get a grocery deal by the time. The one that just says ATM on it.
And it cost you $4 to get out $10.
Exactly.
I would think, since they have access to your account, that they have access to your account.
Oh, okay. I see what you're saying.
at this point.
You slide it in and then who reads it and make sure it goes.
Do you work in the cash register?
Yeah.
The guy's selling you cigarettes.
Same dude.
Really?
No.
No.
No.
No.
Okay.
I just hope I did it right.
I would assume you're okay.
I'm curious about that.
Go check your bank.
I'm going to check my bank.
But you have to drive over to it and ask them humanly.
That's okay.
I like that.
I like the human interaction.
And you know what does make me mad?
It's all my bank.
They got rid of the drive-thru.
There's no more drive-thru when you go to the bank.
you have to, they're eliminating that because I guess a lot of people aren't going to the bank
anymore.
You don't have to.
You can take pictures of your checks.
It goes automatic direct deposit.
Oh, yeah.
There's all the things.
Yeah.
And so what does that mean?
It's like you don't need to churn anymore, dude.
Buy the freaking butter at the grocery store.
Yeah, it's already made.
Yeah.
They're ready for you.
The butter's already, it's in a square.
Wrapped up.
What are you talking about?
I buy butter like that.
It's an analogy.
But a hundred years ago, you'd been like, I ain't doing it.
Probably.
I didn't make butter.
Pigley, wiggily.
What's pigly wiggily.
Piggy-Wiggly.
I ain't going there.
I'm making myself.
I got a cow.
I got a churn.
Oh, boy.
The point is the same conversation
would have been had on the same show
100 years ago, but about things like that.
We should do an episode 100 years ago.
We weren't around 100 years ago.
I know.
We just figured out.
Well, we can imagine.
According to Morgan number two, I think we have been.
Gosh, she thinks are so old.
Morgan number two, you used to listen to us when?
When you were how old?
When I was in high school?
So like 15.
You were 15 years old?
Yeah.
Amy, we were adults to her.
I know.
And she was 15.
Wow.
This is a cool show.
I was married.
She was in high school.
I don't know that we were her idols.
Did you idolize everyone, Morgan, too?
I don't know that I actually idolize and know, but I enjoyed listening and hanging out with you guys in the morning.
Isn't it crazy?
She was 15 listening to the show.
That's so weird.
Like, dreams come true, man.
Muppa babies.
Muppet babies
Making our dreams come true
Muppet babies
We'll do the same for you
When you think your time is near
And you wish that you were there
Just close your eyes and make believe
And you can be anywhere
Muppet babies
That's a key change
Is that Kermit the Frog?
It was Muppet Babies, dude
It was Saturday morning dude
Saturday morning cartoon
I didn't watch those
Turn on the Muppet Baby
The only cartoon I really remember that I watched, I know, is the one with Wayne Gretzky and the, you know, I'm talking about superstars or something.
That's the only one I remember.
Hey, we're talking about banks.
I was thinking about this bit that I've been trying to pitch the lunchbox, but he won't do it.
I want him to go into a bank and act like a hip hop rapper and ask him if he can take a picture in the vault for his new album.
Dude, that's a great bit.
That's a great bit.
I pitched him to do it like 10 times.
You won't do it?
No, you want to know why?
I'm scared that they're going to think I'm trying to rob it.
I'll be the photographer and I'm all, we're all like, yeah, he's not going to run.
I understand that.
Yeah, so, I mean, even better if you accidentally get arrested.
No, no, no, no.
He has some PTSD from being arrested.
That's what I'm saying.
I have a little bit of scaredness because of it.
And so I automatically go to do they think I'm going to rob, are they going to think I'm robbing this place?
But I'll be there with you.
Also, that makes me feel better.
Until they go, stir something up, and he runs out with the camera.
Like, because they're going to think, is that a real camera or is that something out?
I don't know.
Is that really a good.
bit?
Yes.
I think it could be funny.
Yeah.
I mean, banks are tricky, though.
That's why I...
I mean, chances are they won't let him.
But, I mean, it's worth to try.
A hundred percent they won't let me.
I think that the play is to do the phone call.
That's a funny bit.
You don't have to be there in person and you won't get arrested.
That's safe.
You call a bank.
Okay.
And this is not me being funny Bobby.
This is me being Bobby the boss at this point.
It's funny Bobby goes...
VP.
Dude, hit it with the clock and be like,
well, yo, yo, yo, yo, we're here.
Let me get in that.
Bo.
And Eddie has the horn.
Uh-uh.
time you say something.
That's what I would do as the funny person,
but as the person who has to run the show.
Boas, that's what I pictured.
I would say, call them and be like,
yo, yo, it's Delta to the Bezzi.
Trying to get a picture in that vault.
Got a new album dropping.
Got it?
But I need all the monies.
Yeah, you know how all the rappers
have $100 bills that's what I want.
My Calvin poster.
Or call yourself like, you know, like,
Proton.
Post-Ballon or something.
Post-Ballon.
Yeah.
Something that's like a playoff another rapper name.
Okay.
You got a new record coming out.
You're trying to get in that vault.
All right.
How much that cost?
How much that cost to get in that vault?
Like, who they need to call?
And then when they say, now we don't do that.
Who's your boss?
Who's your boss?
FDIC?
Yeah.
Or you can be MCFDIC.
Your name's M-C, FDIC.
You get it?
FDIC.
No, I don't know.
FDIC is what protects money in case your bank dies.
Oh, okay.
You know, when they go, remember FDICC.
Okay.
So your name can be, you get it.
Yo, it's MCFDIC.
And say,
and say since...
It's actually good.
So this is what happens
in a creative right
in a row when you come with ideas.
Then you say,
hey, yo, yo,
this is MCFDIC.
I'm a rapper.
What I talk about is banks,
the money industry.
I need to get in that vault,
take an album photo.
What's it going to take for me
to get in?
I'll throw you guys a shout out.
In my first track...
Can you make it rain?
Shout out.
And then you name the first track.
I'm going to tell you guys a shout out.
In my first track,
money in the bank.
No,
No, you can't do that one.
You have to make something up.
Like, what's a banking term?
Oh, direct deposit.
Yeah.
Like direct deposit in your face.
You know, something like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Deposit slip.
Yeah.
Like deposit slip, bingo murderer.
Just something that makes no sense.
Got it.
Okay, yes.
I feel more comfortable doing that.
Eddie kept saying, go in the bank, and I just, I could not wrap my head around doing it.
Yeah, you're right.
You do have, yeah, you have.
I mean, it all starts with an idea, man.
A past.
history with that. It does. Maybe like
read off a few traps, like hitting the club
with the teller. You know, you have a few different
Yeah, you know. Oh, hit the club with the teller.
You know, or just, you, what else? Where my
lollipop? Take, yeah.
Yeah. Where do loans. Drive through
Lollipop. Deposit this.
Or how about mutual fund
this, you know? It thinks
Like, mutual
mutual fund up my
Well, you don't want to carry. Is that too much?
No, if you were, you'd be like, I got a song called
beep, mute.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, something like that.
Blank and mutual fun.
Well, you got to hit the two Fs.
It's got to be alliteration.
They call me the mutual fun bigger.
Oh, wow.
Oh, gosh.
Your mom wrote me this check.
They're going to like that track.
Oh, boy.
So that's what I'm saying.
Yeah, okay.
See, starts an idea and then everyone builds on it.
Thanks, Bones, for supporting me.
How far did this idea get without me?
Oh, he shut it down 10 times.
Shut it down.
Oh, yeah, I was like, dude, we should.
We totally need to do this photo shoot.
Now, see, here comes Eddie.
10 times twice.
It was five minutes apart too.
I like the idea.
Thanks, Bonn.
I don't know if it'll ever get allowed.
Right.
Meaning, will someone at the bank allow the call?
Because you can't put a call on the air recorded.
Oh, right.
Without the permission.
Yeah, Ray has a good technique for that.
You can record the call in Tennessee.
It's a one party line.
As long as one party knows you can record it.
We just can't play it without permission.
Correct.
Legally.
So, yeah, okay, well, everybody good?
Good.
We can start the show.
I'm going to see up to the I see.
He's good.
MC FDIC.
It's good stuff.
See, Amy said FDIC and I was like, oh, that's a funny rat.
See how it all just kind of builds into it.
You work off each other.
I'm glad you knew what FDCI was.
There you go.
Don't say it like that, though.
Get it right in the right order.
I wrote it down because I don't know what that is.
We shall go away now.
Kind of sore throat, huh?
Yeah.
The weather changed.
It's like, yeah.
It's the weekend, man.
Yeah, man.
He's still in character.
Oh, sorry.
I'm just practicing.
You sound like a more like Bob Marley than you do a
rapper.
Like a stoner.
Get on me, fool.
You tripping.
You tripping.
He's a rapper from the 90s now.
Okay.
Amy, anything you want to say?
I just hope everyone has a great weekend.
Lunchbox?
Oh, man.
You know, just chilling.
Okay.
Yeah, everybody have a good weekend.
Listen to the sore losers' podcast.
Yes.
That's really what I was going to say, but...
We have another one going up today.
Yeah, so check that out daily.
Subscribe to it and listen to Lunchbox, Eddie and Ray,
talking about sports and other things.
Also, you can listen to Bobbycast
Did a conversation yesterday about our favorite musical movies
So you can hear that
If you're out on the weekend, I have nothing else to listen to
Check it out. I'll be in D.C. at Warner Theater doing comedy tonight
I haven't sold out and then Durham tomorrow
And they're both sold out
But if you hear this and you're coming
I appreciate you guys and I'll see you this weekend
And here we go
Show starts now and away we go
Folks, it's your buddy and mine
Mr. Bobby Bones
This is the Bobby Bones
Hey welcome to Friday show
Good morning studio
Good morning
Hey, what's been cool is Amy's been doing the no snooze challenge,
which means she can't hit her snooze for five shows.
But your husband sent in a message, huh?
Yeah, he just wanted to say thanks to you guys,
Bobby Imjicular, for challenging me on this.
And then, I mean, he's thanking me too for accepting it because it's been working out.
He said something along lines about how we've been married 11 years,
and our marriage is already improving.
Wow.
Simply by me getting up right away because it never happens.
and he's not a snooze hitter and it annoys him when I hit snooze.
What does he say when you hit snooze?
Do the impression.
He's just like, are you serious?
Every time.
Well, probably not the first time he's sort of used to it, but like by three, four, third or fourth snooze.
He'll just make noises like, ugh, and roll over, like especially if he doesn't have to wake up.
Yeah.
And he's just like, this is ridiculous.
I don't understand.
And I'm like, feel so good.
Snoose.
I again, I don't understand either
Because I would just set it later
To the absolute latest point
And get that pure sleep
Yeah, but I mean I think it's helped
Like even though it's only been a couple of days
For one he's super proud of me
And for two
He's not annoyed by me
It's amazing
Yeah a lot of people are saying
That my nightmares speaking asleep
Because I'm having pretty crazy nightmares
Are because I went to that intense therapy
And that a lot of the stuff
Still processing its way out
Oh
That's been a common
That's interesting
of feedback through our text line.
Yeah, you opened up some time capsules back there.
Maybe so.
I'm Bobby.
That's Amy.
That's Lunchbox.
Morgan number two sitting over there and she's 24.
And now...
Hey, what your 24 year olds care about?
So Waffle House now has a catering food truck.
They run it out for private events across the country.
And it'll only cost you $90 to rent it.
What?
$90?
Well, you rent the truck and then you...
You have to pay for the food.
I'll have you guys over on Saturday with...
that. I love Waffle House. That would be awesome. I think Waffle House is pound for pound
the best all the time open restaurant and probably because I just ate it so much and I have that
familiar. It's nostalgic. Yeah, I love Waffle House. Some places they still smoke in Waffle House.
It's old school. It's old school. I don't like that very much, but still they do, yeah.
Just imagine if you want to impress a girl. Okay. For $90, you can have the Waffle House food trucks
show up and be like breakfast in bed, baby. Wow. Baller. Yeah, don't act like I'm not into
onto something. That is a baller move. Where can they do this Morgan number two?
They just have to go to Waffle House online and you choose the desired menu, but the only catch
is you do have to pay 50 bucks for mileage fee to and from whatever the event is. So,
so it's now $140. What? And isn't this how life works?
Oh, man. You think you got a deal. Have you seen the meme that says,
bought two tickets from Ticketmaster,
25 bucks a piece, total price, $300.
That's so true.
It's all the fees.
Sometimes I'll see people
and they'll take a meme and they'll write it out
and act like they did it themselves and repost it.
Meaning they'll copy and paste it
and then put it on Twitter as something they said.
I saw it yesterday the day before.
And I was like, come on.
Oh, well, what if they came up with it?
They didn't.
It's exactly the same.
I don't know.
How can you come up with a meme and make it
stick. The same way you come up
with a video to make it viral. The same way you, it's tough.
It's really hard. Yeah, I try going viral.
It's real tough. I try all the time. Yeah?
Yeah, it hadn't happened yet. I'm still working
on it. You got plans.
Well, today.
I can't wait.
The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Stories.
It's producer Ramundo. Hurricane Lane is hitting Hawaii.
They're going to get tons of rain throughout the weekend.
Two feet in some places.
It looks like it's not going to be a direct hit.
It's going to veer off, so that is good news.
In other news, General Mills is
ditching the 100% natural claim that they have on their Nature Valley granola bars.
We've seen it on there for years, but it's going to start to change on store shelves.
And finally, in sports news, college football gets underway this weekend.
You got a couple games going on.
So there you go.
Eddie, our video director, posted a picture of his bicep on Instagram.
He's flexing his arm.
And you're getting drug, huh?
Dude, now I know how you feel.
Yeah, everyone's like, oh, gosh.
Like, where's your muscle?
Like, do you work out at all?
Like, what is the deal with that?
Like, I was really just trying to be funny.
I was wearing my sleeveless pearl snap shirt.
And I'm flexed.
And, I mean, I'll be honest.
Are you were flexed?
See, now you're gonna bash me.
I thought you were just doing the arm thing.
No, dude, that was me full flex.
I'm even gritting my teeth because I'm trying to get it up.
And, dude, I mean, there was no positive, like, oh, wow, good arm.
Well, you're not going to get that.
But they were dragging you pretty hard about your.
Yeah, dude, when you talk about, like, people saying your legs look small
and stuff. I get it now.
You were trying to embarrass your kids that shirt?
Yeah, well, we were at the house and I was like, we're going to the rodeo, boys, let's go.
And I put my sleeveless pearl snap shirt on there, and both of the kids go, you're not wearing that, right?
And my wife goes, please wear that.
Like, please, I would love for you to wear that.
I'm not scared. Let's do it. Let's go. So I wore it out.
Do your kids get embarrassed to you, Amy?
Yeah, sometimes my daughter will question my outfit or she'll try to help me.
And I love when she gives me her honest opinion. It's actually helped our relationship.
Like she'll tell me, no, I don't think you should wear that.
Or sometimes she'll say, Mom, you look beautiful.
And I'm like, really?
Yeah, and that means a lot coming from her.
And that's sort of new.
And then I know, I'm like, I don't know how I could be walking out looking at a hot mess,
but as long as she thinks I look beautiful, I feel good.
Because she doesn't say that lightly.
That's a good story.
Yeah.
I saw her wearing a picture, a shirt with your face on it.
Yeah.
And I was like, that's cool.
She thinks her mom's cool enough to wear a face on a shirt.
Yeah, she wears, she has like a couple different versions of that, you know,
because we sold them for Haiti.
They benefited Haiti, and she loves wearing it.
I don't know.
I'm like, sometimes it's embarrassing when I'm out with her.
I'm like, oh, my gosh, people probably think like I put my face on my kid's shirt.
That's funny.
Yeah.
But you did, though, right?
No, I did it.
Bobby Bonds.
Megan.
Hi.
Good morning.
Thank you very much for calling.
So what do you want to know?
Well, I just texted in this morning because I heard.
I do talk about the office lately and about friends, and I've watched both many times,
and I just cannot believe that you think that I take the Rachel is harder to watch than Scott's top.
Oh, two of the cringeworthiest episodes of all time.
So, and friends, I can't watch the episode where Ross tells Emily, I take the Rachel.
I can't watch it.
I change it every time.
It's the scene where Ross and Emily are getting married.
and Rachel's in the audience
and he goes, I take the
he should say Emily
but he says Rachel
I can't watch it
I change it
now on the office
the Scott's Todd's episode is
Michael Scott
goes to the kindergarten class
and goes
you're all going to college on me
and then what happens is
flash forward
what 13 years later
they're all graduating high school
and he owes
in the newspaper running an article
like he sent them all to college
and he's like oh my goodness
I forgot about Scott Scott's thoughts
that's great
He's named.
Yeah.
Okay.
So he has to go back and tell them, I can't send you out of college.
And they're like giving them a big parade.
It's a fantastic.
Here's the reason that one to me is I feel like I'm part of the Friends cast.
Like those are my friends.
I feel like I'm watching the office from afar because I don't live in that environment.
I don't live in the office.
The Office is my favorite show of all time, but I'm watching that as like a third party.
Friends, I feel like I'm in.
Like I'm in the group of friends.
Like you're at the wedding.
Yeah.
Does that make sense, Megan?
But as a teacher, it just makes me cringe.
And I've just seen that episode of Friends so many times.
It's jaw-dropping, but I just cannot handle that episode of the office.
Yeah, I feel like on the Friends, when I'm watching that my own friends do that and I can't do it.
But in the office, I'm just like, oh, man, those guys are real idiots.
It's hilarious.
And in the office, doesn't he end up giving them iPads, though?
It's like, oh, sorry, that's what you get.
Yeah, he gives up.
If you haven't seen the Scots Tots episode, it's so cringeworthy of the office.
But I think it's possibly between that and the white elephant with the passing the iPod around for Christmas.
My favorite episode.
But that's a great question.
I appreciate you, Megan, for reaching out.
Is there an episode of any show that you can't watch that you're like, ooh?
The other episode is the dinner party episode of the office.
That one is even worse for me.
Yeah, Michael Scott and his girlfriend.
Listen, we're way in the office here, but that's a tough one.
What do you guys, when I mention this, is there a TV show in a series that it's tough to watch or one that you even love?
Because one for me is the Fresh Prince of Will Smith's yelling at Uncle Phil.
You're not my dad!
Oh, man.
Because his dad, like these episodes resonate.
That got real.
Yeah.
Sometimes Fresh Prince would get real.
They would get real.
I guess it's just me and you, Megan.
We're the only weirdos that bond the episodes on television.
You know, that's okay.
We have our own ways.
Yeah, that's okay.
I appreciate you calling, though.
Thank you for calling.
And, Watchbox, what about the episode where the guy, like, slaps the girl and throws the bunny in the water on Real World?
Oh, I can watch that all the time.
That's Stephen in Real World Seattle.
I mean, he got her and he goes, boom, Sizer takes her stuffed doll.
She's had since a kid and throws it in the harbor.
I've seen that, and I don't watch Real World.
That makes me uncomfortable.
But you don't mind that?
I don't mind it at all.
Hey, she was kind of, I mean, he shouldn't hit her, but throwing the doll.
Ah, she's a doll.
Megan, thank you for calling.
Have a great morning.
Thank you.
I've been listening for a long time, and I just would say I love listening to you guys.
I used to listen on the way to school with my mom in the car, and now I listen on my way to teach my own kids.
So I really love you guys.
Thank you so much.
It was a pleasure talking to you.
Appreciate you.
See you later.
The latest from Nashville in Hollywood.
It's the 32nd Skinny.
So we've got movies coming out this weekend.
AXL.
It's a story about a boy and his robotic dog.
Oh, that's not interesting to you, Amy.
I mean, I'm not so much interested.
to it, but I'm sure that you are.
Why would I be into a boy and his robotic dog?
You love AI.
Like, AI anything.
Like, I wouldn't be surprised if you end up with an AI pet or girlfriend.
Oh, wow.
I think Alexa may already be my girlfriend.
If I'm serious, if you were to come to my house and you just hear me talking alone in my room, I'm always talking to Alexa.
My time is it?
Play this song.
Yeah.
Tell me something.
Yeah.
Okay, what else?
Is there any other movies coming out?
Yeah, the Happy Time Murders.

There you go.
All right, what else?
All right, so there are some new stars added to Music City's Walk of Fame in Nashville.
Ray Stevens was one of them.
Oh, I'm such a big Ray Stevens fan.
And I know some of you guys don't know Ray Stevens like I do.
Man, the streak.
And he ain't wearing no clothes.
Who is a calling the street?
He did funny songs and I listened to all his music.
I had all his tapes.
And then I played the Opry after him a couple weeks ago and it was so cool.
And I did not go say hi because I was too nervous.
I'm a huge Ray Stevens fan.

Sharon Moore lives in New Hampshire.
She lost her dad back in 1983.
So to her surprise, in the mail last week, she gets something.
And it's her dad's wallet.
When he was on vacation in France, in the 50s, he lost his wallet.
Wow.
And some guy was cleaning out a building and found the wallet.
It had pictures of her mom, his old driver's license, and sort of family photos.
found them and sent it to New Hampshire as a surprise.
Wow.
How about that?
That's a good one.
From the 50s?
From the 50s.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
Bob it Bones Show.
Bonehead.
This story comes to us from Virginia.
A mom was cooking dinner when she decided,
hmm, this meal could use some mushrooms.
I don't need to go to the store to buy mushrooms.
There's some out in the courtyard at the apartment complex.
Goes out, puts the mushrooms in.
They all become ill and had to be rushed to the hospital.
hospital. These are just
mushrooms that grow in the grass, right?
Yes. Do you just see weeds, basically?
Yeah. And the
health department went and took pictures and said,
are these the mushrooms? And they're nicknamed
the vomiter mushrooms. Oh, no.
They're not going to die or anything. They just got really sick,
and they're going to make a full recovery.
Good for them.
On Lunchbox, that's your Bonehead Story of the day.
Yeah.

The Friday morning conversation with Granger Smith.
Ranger, our old buddy, Texas, native, still lives there.
One of the few artists who still live in Texas and travel back and forth to Nashville all the time.
They're walking down the hallway right now.
He's got a new book out called If You're City, If You're Country, but it's written by Earl Dibbles Jr.
Oh, yes.
Not Granger, which Earl Dibbles is.
Hey, there he is right there.
Hey, clap your hands for everybody.
Yeah.
You have to yell yee, yee, ye.
Oh, yeah. Oh, because I was just saying, I say, you know. You're right.
Hey, you're good? You good. I'm good. How are you?
I can see you get a book now. If you're city, if your country by Earl Dibbles Jr.
What's this about? Well, we just figured that there's this worldwide epidemic of people that are not really sure which side of the fence they're on city or country. So this is your hand guide to figure that out.
And so you wrote it as Earl? Yes. Earl wrote it.
Oh, sorry, my bad.
Earl wrote it, of course.
So which are you, Bobby?
Are you city or your country?
I'm oddly both because I grew up in the country, but now I live city.
So a lot of people say that they're kind of both.
I'm kind of both.
So what you do is you read the whole book and then you take your average on which one you are.
Oh, so you pick one.
So every page is left page is if you're city.
Right page is if your country.
So it's sort of like a quiz.
Can I read one of these?
Do you care?
Yeah, yeah.
Go ahead.
If your city, a good network is great when you need to download a big file.
Okay.
if your country, good network is when you need to upload a big bass into the boat.
Yeah.
So which one would you be in that situation?
Well, I'd be city in that one.
Okay.
I used to be more.
We're doing now.
I'd be city now.
So what about apartment?
How do you feel about apartment?
Like if I said the word apartment, what comes to your mind?
I lived in many small apartments.
Right, right.
So if your city, an apartment is one of the only places you could live.
There's no houses in the city, right?
But if your country, sometimes chewing tobacco is better mixed together.
apart winter green at apartment
Okay, that's when you know your country
Shouldn't you be reading that as Earl?
Andy was leading towards that that one.
Shouldn't you be reading that as Earl there like to really sell the book?
Yeah, I should.
You do want as Earl.
Okay.
Yeah.
This is me giving Granger who, by the way,
created all of Earl, has this excellent everything.
And I'm like, hey, shouldn't you be doing it the other way?
But Granger, you are getting advice from a New York Times bestseller.
Twice.
Okay, okay.
Okay, I hear you.
So I mean.
Just twice, but who's counting?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What do I know?
Not us.
Read me one.
Okay.
I got to read city as me.
Okay.
Right?
It makes sense.
Fair.
If you're city and you spend a lot of time web surfing on your smartphone, you better
have a good data plan.
Got it.
If you're country, that's Earl.
And you spend a lot of time hipster and in the hayloft, you better have a good
dad-da plan.
Get it, dad-da-da.
Get it.
Okay.
It definitely helps when you read it.
as Earl versus...
Hey, don't tell the guy how to do his work.
You know what I mean?
Hey, Granjur, you good, by the way?
I'm good, man. How are you?
I'm good. Where can you get this book? I should ask that.
How can people get the book?
Well, right now we're going exclusive to Amazon.
What about if your country?
Yeah, and if your country, you got to come to our show and get it right out of the merch table.
So Amazon, that's where I get all my stuff anyway.
Yeah.
So go to Amazon, you can get, if your city, if your country, by Earl Dibbles Jr.
And there's a CD included, huh?
Yeah, CD, so it's got all of Earth.
Earl's songs plus a track of him reading the book.
So if you just want to sit back and look at these pictures and have Earl read it to you,
you just pop in that compact disc.
There he is.
Let me play a couple songs here.
Let's see.
Which song would you like me to play first?
Your current song?
Yeah.
Your current single?
You like that one?
Tell me about that one.
Yeah.
This is a song.
It's about tomorrow is not guaranteed.
We don't know what the future holds.
but as long as you're spinning it with that person that you love, that's all that matters.
You're in it.
It's called You're in it.
Here we go.
Have you made this video yet?
I have.
Is your wife in this video?
She is in this video.
Okay, I was making sure this is the right one.
So what's that conversation like?
Hey, I want you.
Then does she like being in videos?
She's been in so many of them that I forgot to tell her about this one.
I had booked it with the director.
We had booked it with the producer.
And then I forgot that, oh, I should probably tell her.
or hey, you're booking this date and get a babysitter because you're going to be in the music video.
And so how does she like being in the public eye?
I think she loves it.
Honestly, thank goodness she does.
She has a really good presence on social media, which I love because she handles, she talks to fans all the time.
And she has a bunch of, you know, the soccer mom fans that love to hit her up and see how she's doing at home with the babies.
and she really engages with them.
So she'll come to me all the time and say,
hey, there's this couple and they're getting married
and they want you to do their wedding announcement.
So I'm going to shoot a quick video.
Oh, that's cool.
And so she handles that kind of stuff.
And I just go, sure, sounds good.
Here's Granger Smith.
You're in it.
Are you healthy, by the way?
Are you back up to 100% from your fall?
Yes, I am.
Yeah, like punctured lung and all this.
Broke a couple ribs, puncture lung.
That makes you nervous?
are you staying off the edge of stages?
Yeah, I think about it.
Do you?
I think about it every day.
I'm out there singing,
and my left foot kind of goes over the edge a little bit,
and I'm like, oh, there it is.
Yeah, I think about it all the time.
Did you have any PTSD from that?
Did you go to sleep thinking about the fall or anything or wake up?
You know, the thing I got out of that was I had to cancel a whole bunch of shows.
I had to cancel 10 shows.
And for the first time ever, nothing mattered.
The tour didn't matter.
The schedule didn't matter.
And you know how it is.
there's always this schedule and you stick by it and you live by it, you live by the calendar.
And for the first time ever, I had no schedule.
I had no calendar.
I was on the couch trying to recover.
And that's a big eye-opener for sure.
Did you wonder, wow, if I can't do what I used to do, I don't know what I can do anymore.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's very sobering thought.
And that's the mentality of all we have is the present moment.
All we have is right now is very impactful, especially.
for any business, but for the music business,
when everything is the next tour, the next single,
the next everything, the present moment, it becomes very important.
Granger Smith is here.
I guess a couple weeks ago I was on your Instagram,
and I saw that your truck turned over.
Yeah.
Your 18-wheeler.
Yeah.
So it's carrying all of your stuff to the show.
So what happens?
Because it was over on its side and it had covered the entire highway.
What happened there?
Speaking of living in the present moment, absolutely.
Yeah, I woke up, my tour manager woke me up,
and he says, hey, Charlie's okay.
That's our driver.
But the truck flipped, I think you need to come out here.
So we go out at the bus, and there we are on the highway.
And it's that site that we have all seen of a highway.
Everything's backed up.
No one's going anywhere.
But it's someone that you know.
It's a crazy, crazy thought.
Walk out there, hug the driver.
He walked right out of the front windshield.
He was okay.
He walked out of the front windshield?
Not a scratch on him.
He walked out of the front windshield.
windshield and it was inches away from a guardrail. Inches away, his face would have been inches
away from a guardrail that stopped. And yeah, yeah, it was, it was, you know, of course we needed
to get to the next show, but that became kind of a motivating goal that day is, hey, we're going to,
we're going to get to the show. All we have to do is rent some gear, make a few phone calls, and we were
just thankful that everyone was okay. You know, I want to ask you about when you went on
The Bachelorette to play a song.
Was that this year or last year?
Yes, it was this year.
So you go on that show.
What's that environment like whenever you're going to be the musical part of it?
Because you're up there playing for the people.
It's weird.
Yeah.
They even looks weird on TV a little bit.
Yeah.
Is that a weird thing to do?
Yeah, it is.
People said, is that a unique thing?
Have you ever felt that before?
And I said, actually, I have when you play weddings.
Back in the days when we used to play a lot of weddings, it felt like that.
where it's not about you.
It's not about the band or the music.
It's all about the bride.
Because that was Becca, right?
Yeah.
Do you meet them whenever you?
Yeah.
And how'd that go?
It went great.
They seemed, you know, Becca and Garrett, who she ended up getting with, they were very
down to earth and fun people.
You could tell that Garrett, and he told me, he said, this is the best night of my life.
And you could tell that he really meant that.
You could see in his eyes, he was really excited.
Not because we were there, but just because of the, that was their date and all these people were there celebrating them together.
It was fun.
So would you go to that wedding?
Hey, if I got an invite?
Yeah.
But there's no communication afterward.
I feel a connection to them because we played that song and that was their first date.
So I do kind of feel like we could go to the wedding and have something in common.
That's pretty cool.
Yeah.
But then do you play it like 80 times over and over again on TV?
No, honestly, I think we played it twice. We played it one time and they wanted to capture their surprise. So they walked in, we played the song. And then they said, let's run it one more time just to make sure we have all the angles and that was it.
Granger Smith is here. You did post a video to Instagram saying you were taking off maybe November, December. Is that what it is? And so just for family time?
Yeah, we've been, we've been hitting it hard, really hard. And I'm not going to take completely off. There'll be commitments I have to do. But I'm remember, I remember, I remember.
really looking forward to taking some time, being a dad, being a husband, being present,
November and December.
Are you doing things?
Because you're talking in some of these tool terms that I try to use.
When you say being present, who's teaching you that?
Oh, my gosh.
Are you reading a book?
I, uh, are you going to therapy like I do?
I'm hearing something in you that's more than just, you know.
It's, um, it's, this has been tough.
These last few years have been tough.
They've been really tough, um, mentally trying to,
And I'm just being completely honest.
I'm being completely honest.
I'm trying to digest all of this and understanding where the, where's the end?
What's the finish line?
And then realizing there is no finish line.
It's always another tour.
It's always the next single.
Do you say I'm going to have, I want to have 15 number ones?
Well, what happens when you get to 16?
Is it 20?
There is no end.
And so I've read a lot of books.
I've seen a lot of documentaries and listen to a lot of podcast and as you probably have too
because we have to try to understand what's the purpose of all this. What's the end goal?
And I've had to realize that happiness is the end goal. Being happy, being creative, being passionate
about what I do. If I could maintain those three things, then that's a pretty good goal.
Yeah, I love that. And you're talking in terms that I'm familiar with because I'm also trying to find
exactly where I fit in this whole thing.
Because I don't know.
And then it's, well, I'm trying to accomplish all these goals,
but then I reach these goals and I'm like,
I feel no more fulfilled than I did before.
So I think for me it's on very much the personal side
where it's, I've got to find whatever that is that makes it matter.
Because I've got all the shiny toys now,
and I don't give a crap, but I'm anybody to share them with.
Yeah.
You know, that's for me the struggle.
And so, but when you say things like that,
oh, he's doing what I'm doing.
Just trying to find his place.
I try to find my place.
and authentic success is what I'm trying to go for.
And there's a difference between success
that the world thinks you need.
You know, you might look and go,
oh, he doesn't have this, this, this.
He's not quite found success yet.
But that's not right for anyone to judge someone else's success.
You only know your own, and that is authentic success.
That's when you go to bed at night and you go,
I've done good.
I'd had a good day.
Authentic success makes you fulfilled on the inside.
It makes you happy.
I was looking at your throwback Thursday.
It was you at 17 years old.
You posted an old picture yourself.
What would you tell yourself back at 17?
Like right now, you're a Granger right now talking to that 17-year-old.
Yeah.
It's all about patience.
Patience.
And things just don't come the way you think they're going to at the time frame that you want them to.
It never does.
Life never delivers that.
So you have to just endure.
You have to find, you have to meet all the fitness.
You have to find your failures and embrace those failures.
You almost have to strive for failure, in fact.
We talk about it as a band all the time.
We need to push to the point of failure until we actually mess up
because that's when you finally learn.
That's when you finally found your limit and you find how to get better.
Is it when you work out, you work out in the gym to fail so that your muscles fail,
so then they tear down and you build back up better.
Like the Socrates of country music in the man.
There's a book I read.
It's called Fail Until You Don't.
It's by Robert Waisos.
Have you heard of that book?
I have, yes.
Shut up.
Shut up.
Even though Spanish, so you probably pick that one out.
All right, well, listen.
Let's get back to the matter at hand.
We got deep.
That's what friends do.
We get deep in here.
I know.
I liked it.
If you're city, if your country, by Earl Dibbles Jr.
You can get it on Amazon.
You get it at the shows.
I bet you just clean up on merch.
Because I would go to your show and buy merch.
You would?
Yeah, but here's why.
You've done something that I don't understand.
I think probably because you're just a good person.
This is what I think.
I see other artists wearing your stuff.
Either you're paying them, which I don't think you are.
It would be a, and I don't think you are.
Or they just like you.
And they're all wearing the yee-e stuff.
And I'm going, that's cool.
Like other people are also vouching for you.
And you're just a good dude.
I think that's why, unless you are, slide them a little something,
then slide me something.
I'll wear it too.
But, man, the ye-e-e-e-stuff, I mean,
that pays the bills, huh?
It does, it does.
Do you own Yi?
I do.
I do.
Because if not, I was about to.
We trademarked it a long time ago.
And it's, for the most part, it goes back to staying passionate and staying creative.
My bills are paid.
Electric bills are okay.
We're going to be okay for the next few months.
It's not really about more and more, more, more building, building, building.
It's more of the fun and that kind of creativity.
This book is the perfect example.
a passion project that it's so exciting to, as you know, to now you see a book and it's on
Amazon and you could sell it and you could flip through it and it's tangible and here it is,
we wrote this book. And it's, it's so much about the experience.
How much this cost? This is 1999.
Look at this. Do you sign them at all? Yeah. Yeah. It just came out so this week, so it's,
I haven't done any signings yet, but I will. I have one right here that's signed by you.
There you go. There you go. It says yee yee. Do you sign it as both Granger and
Yeah, if people want that, yes.
I mean, it's written by both.
That is true, too.
Well, look at you, man.
I'm always happy for you.
You come in every time, you always look a little better, a little happier.
That's how I feel about you.
Maybe.
I think this time, maybe so.
Trying to get there.
I went to a whole therapy came for like four days.
I could tell.
I went and I was like, man, this pretty much.
You have a glisten in your eyes.
I'm pregnant.
What do you want?
What do you want?
What are you want for men?
That's a glove.
I'm glowing.
Okay, well, listen.
Granger Smith's new book,
a comedy book.
Can I call it a comedy book?
Yeah, it's funny.
If you're city, if your country, by Earl Dibbles Jr.,
what if they search Granger Smith, will that pop up?
I don't know.
That's a good question.
If you search Granger Smith book, it probably will because it's tied with some other
yee-y stuff on Amazon.
And there's a CD included, and it'll also be out of shows.
You're good dude.
I like to always press you about the merch stuff.
I'm fascinated with it.
The business, and he just about Granger's too.
He puts all his family.
His family's his team.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You ever met his brothers?
Yeah.
Okay.
Listen, I put in great.
Granger Smith book into Amazon, and I've got backroad song, and some Granger Smith,
dibbles, kings, women's drawstring sweatpants. Okay, we need to fix that then.
Wait, what's up with those sweatpants? You saw those? I don't think that those are used.
Those are mine. Those just have the keywords. We're constantly Garthbrooking Amazon. We're taking
stuff down constantly. We have to do that. We have to enjoy stuff. Because then people are
buying it. First of all, 100% of the proceeds go to something. And if you're buying it from Amazon,
Nobody's getting the proceeds.
Exactly.
Well, somebody is.
Chuck in Delaware.
Right, but not a...
Yeah, for sure.
Good to see you, bud.
Good to see you too.
It's time for the good news.
With Amy.
Tell me something good.
A library in Missouri has turned an old newspaper dispenser into something much more useful.
It's filled with school supplies, non-perishable food, and personal care items that are free for anyone
in need to take, and they're calling it the kindness.
cupboard and yeah it's painted
really bright, happy colors
and people can just go walk up
to it whatever they need, they can grab it. That's good.
Lunchbox, how would you feel with that?
Man, I can get some free stuff.
What if you didn't need it though?
I mean, you can always use something.
There's always something you could use.
I love it because there are people that really need.
If you do have someone that takes advantage
of it a little bit like Lunchbox, that's okay.
But Lunchbox is adult enough to know
he shouldn't be doing it. Like one of my neighbors
has one of these old newspaper dispensers
and this is exactly what they use it for.
And sometimes my kids think they can go in and grab a snack.
Your neighbor has one?
Yes.
I'll swing by.
Okay, great.
I mean, but kids, they can learn.
But lunchbox, you know better.
Hey, I do love that.
Yeah.
I love your honesty, lunchbox.
What can I say?
Thank you.
What can I say?
That was Tell Me Something Good.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
Let go.
I'm a translet it.
Yeah, over to Amy with that corny.
The morning corny.
What do you call a number that loves to travel?
What do you call a number that loves to travel?
A Roman numeral.
Everybody.
Yeah, come on.
That was the morning corny.
Hey, Tracy.
Yes.
What's up with you?
Hey, oh my gosh, I can't believe I'm talking to you.
It's me.
It's Amy.
Amy, say hello.
Hello, hello.
Lunchbox.
Hello, hello.
We're all here for you.
you.
Awesome.
Well, listen, I'm calling from Austin.
I've been watching or listening to your show since y'all were here.
But I just have to tell you that I set my alarm in the morning to wake up to your song
every day is a good day.
Oh, how about that?
You like that one?
I love it. I do.
It gets me in a good mood every morning.
So I just wanted to let you know that I wake up in a good mood because you're singing to me every morning.
Well, I wish there's one.
How about that?
There's one person.
Well, hey, thanks very much.
I appreciate the call.
Hope you have a good day at work today.
How do you feel about that, Am?
I feel like that's pretty awesome, throwing it back.
Well, yeah, to, yeah, to like last year.
Oh, really?
It's a Bobby Bones show.
Now time for a game of Riddle me this.
That's right.
So what I have here are kids' riddles.
And at the end of the riddle, you have 15 seconds to figure out the answer.
All right.
Riddles for children.
So they're easy.
Easy.

That's right.

The rail, she says.
Lunchbox.
Railing.

Eddie.
Handrail?
You know, you all could have fought for that one, but it's not the answer.
It's carpet.
Yeah.
There you go.
Either way, you're all even.
No comment.
Okay, you can all have the point.
Fine.
You're all even.
I like that.
Feels way better.
You know what?
You all got it right.
But generally the rule is has to be on the paper.
It avoids any sort of conflict.
I got to.
Here we go.

Man, I couldn't come up with anything but tennis ball.
Oh!
Yeah!
Oh!
Oh!
Eddie. I'm confused. I have volleyball.
Oh, except there.
Yeah.
Okay. Is that on the sheet?
Yeah, why not?
Our judge is being very liberal than that. I like it.
What's he up to?
What? I don't know.
I know. Nobody's gotten a yellow card for questioning him yet either.
Hey, friends forever. You know what I'm saying?
I like that.
What goes up and never comes down.
Riddle me this.
There's a tie right now. This is for the win.
Oh, there's a new one saying again?
I thought we were back on the stairs.

What goes up, but never comes down.
That's it.
And never comes down.
There it is.
Riddle me this.
So down.
Amy's confident.
Yeah, I don't know.
She got her pen down. She got it.
Oh, yeah.
All right, lunchbox, what is your answer?
Clouds.
Clouds, you say no.
Eddie.
This is pretty dumb.
I said thumb.
Thumb.
Guys.
It's so obvious.
Okay.
Amy says it's obvious.
Amy for the win.
I cannot wait to hear your answer because I'm going to, I want to feel of it.
Like when you say it, I want to know if I feel.
I'm like, am I so dumb?
What goes up but never comes down.
Amy.
Your age.
How do you feel about that?
No.
That's it.
That's not it.
Why?
Your age goes up.
It never comes down.
No chance.
That's it.
That has to be it.
It's temperature.
Show me.
No, temperature's going down.
You fool?
That is it.
How did we not get that?
Yeah.
How did we not get that?
Show me for the win.
Age.
Amy!
And as the winning prize, you get to do the famous Riddle Me This.
You ready, AIM?
You want it silent or no?
I'll have my music too.
Okay, here you go.
Riddle me this.
Okay, rude.
Yeah.
Thumbs up.
Thumbs up.
And don't take you back down.
All right.
So dumb.
The Bobby Bones show.
So what happened with your daughter?
Well, I was asking her where her homework was, and she said it flew out the window.
And I was like, ha, ha, ha, ha.
And she's from Haiti.
School, this is all a new concept.
That's an American thing that's been said for years.
I mean, it was around when I was a kid.
And probably my parents were kids.
And to hear her say that, I was like, who taught you that?
Yeah.
Like, who taught you that American expression?
Who taught you to say that? Because we've never given that expression since they've been in our home.
And she kept looking at me like, Mom, what are you talking about?
She's like, my homework flowed the window.
I'm like, I said, Sashira, when you tell your teacher that, it's not going to work.
So we need to talk about this.
Like, you know, the dog didn't eat your homework.
Your homework didn't fly out the window.
And then, so we have a nanny that helps to and from school at times.
and yeah, confirmed with the nanny
that they had the windows down on the highway
and so she was homework flew out the window.
Wow, she was telling the truth.
She was telling the truth
and I was giving her such a hard time
and telling her like, hey, if you are going to tell your teacher that,
we got to come up with a better plan.
But no, that was legit.
Her excuse and it was real.
Well, so a couple things.
You know, one thing is an accident.
Two things, you go, huh, there's something in common here?
Because your daughter says,
hey, my homework flew out the window.
You said, nah.
Your son said, I have a girlfriend.
His name's Gladys said, nah.
I know.
You don't believe him, huh?
Well, to be fair, though,
our daughter, Sashira,
she was the one that got us on the train
of Gladys not being real.
Because, I mean, maybe she just didn't believe
that he could have a girlfriend.
I don't know what her deal was.
But she was adamant that Gladys was fiction.
How are they...
Here we are again.
How long have they been in your house?
Eight months.
As your kids moved in eight months ago.
How are they now with being brother and sister
because they're not biologically brother and sister,
but now they're brother and sister.
The first few months, they were a team.
They came here together.
They were in this together.
Where are we this crazy place?
Like adjusting this life.
They would speak creole to each other behind our backs,
probably, you know, talking a little trash.
I don't blame them.
You know, they were uncomfortable.
But they were a team.
And now they are speaking only English to each other.
And they're fighting and they're annoyed.
and sometimes they don't like each other.
And it's like true brother and sister
because they're not biologically related.
So, you know, we put them in a home together.
And I love that they act like brother and sister.
Because it just, to me, it means like we're feeling like a real home.
Yeah, whenever you can pick at somebody, you're comfortable with them.
Yes.
Except for he does not like it when she picks on him.
And then he'll say things like, well, then fine, I don't care about you.
And I'm like, that's right for it.
Nice.
I know.
Wow, wow.
And that's where I draw the line.
Because I'm like, in our home, we are a family and we care about each other.
So I will not stand for that.
But share what you said was kind of funny.
Bobby Bones is on.
Hit it.
You know what this music's from?
Top Gun.
Yeah.
Morgan No. 2 is talking about the Top Gun sequel.
What is it?
Top Gun 2?
Yeah.
Well, it's called Top Gun Maverick.
So it's focused on Tom Cruise as Maverick.
And he's now the instructor of everybody.
Nice.
I'll watch.
Yeah?
Yeah, I love Top Gun.
And it's one of my husband's favorite movies.
And it just, yeah.
That is a thing.
Your husband's a pilot.
Yeah.
I bet it's like I love Howard Stern's private parts
because that was radio.
Yeah, same thing.
Because I'm in radio.
That's true.
Does he, like, get him going?
Oh, yeah.
Like, we watch Top Guns sometimes.
I mean.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, baby, I'm home waiting for you.
I got Tom Gunn already playing.
That's funny.
When's that coming out, Morgan, number two?
July 12th of 2019.
Hey, when does Ozarks season two hit?
August 31st.
Oh, week from today.
It's on my calendar.
Amy's didn't do it.
That was quick, Amy.
I've been waiting for that one.
I have it on there because I was thinking,
oh, that's Labor Day weekend.
That'll be a good weekend.
We'll have some time to binge it.
I'll finish it before we return.
So the last few days,
Amy has talked about she can't stop hitting the snooze button.
And then we have a listener on named Jessica.
Jessica, how many times a morning would you normally hit the snooze button?
Oh, a minimum of at least three, and I would say max, maybe 10, depending on whether or not I changed the alarm time.
I can't believe that.
I mean, y'all, I just need to clarify, I have never done 10.
I've done five, six, maybe.
But my men is three probably, too.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, we're the same.
My whole thing was, why not just let the alarm later and get all that full sleep?
But we all live different kinds of lives.
So Jessica, our listener and Amy, my co-host, have decided they're doing the No Snooze Challenge for five shows, five weekdays, right?
And so Amy, I'll ask you, it's day three.
Have you hit the snooze?
No.
Still haven't.
Still haven't.
Come on.
That's work.
And how do you feel?
I feel good.
Yeah?
I really do.
So, I mean, I could get into this.
We'll see.
I got, I know how awesome it feels to snooze.
I'm a chronic snoozer and I love it.
But if I feel better without it, so who knows?
We'll see how I feel day five.
Jessica?
I did not snoo.
Come on.
That was.
I was nervous.
Jessica, are you sleeping better, though?
I am, you know, the excitement of being on the show, I think it's a bit of a challenge
for me.
But I had a bit of excitement yesterday because I was wondering, like, why do I do this?
And I know that my mom is always snooze.
Like, I remember growing up and doing it.
My sister totally does it.
And I asked my dad yesterday, stopped by church and talked to him.
And I said, Dad, you know, did you snooze?
Do you snooze?
You know, from my stepmom, make sure he's telling the truth.
And he goes, oh, yeah, I totally snooze.
And I was like, hmm, maybe it's, you know, genetic, nurture versus nature,
not really sure which end of that.
And then someone chimes in and goes, you're the snooze girl?
And I was like, yes, totally.
Oh, you got recognized on the show?
Yes.
That's funny.
Hey, where do you live, snooze girl?
Fort Myers.
Okay, yeah.
Shout out.
That's funny.
Snooze girl.
Yeah, Jessica, the snooze girl.
Well, I'll say this.
I do think it's nurture more than nature.
The snoozing, I think we see the habits young, mimic them and they develop.
For example, I never snooze.
I never had an alarm clock because I slept in the living room.
I don't have a bed.
So I just had to wake up when it was time.
So I was trained.
Because if I didn't wake up, there were no cell phones.
We're talking like the 90s folks.
And so if I didn't wake up, I didn't go to school and I had to get myself ready for school.
So it was like, boom, up going.
And I think that's where it is for me because I had to do it.
So look at you guys.
Three days in, hey, take the weekend, sleep away.
Whatever you want.
Yeah, but I'm not going to press snoo.
Hey, it's up to you.
Jessica.
Amy's getting angry.
We can't go back to him.
getting snooze this weekend and it'll make Monday really, really hard?
I'm not doing it.
Like, I think I'm dead set from the beginning of this on breaking this habit because it doesn't
it doesn't make sense.
I mean, I was doing some research.
I know it has to do with like your internal clock.
Like some people stay up later.
Some people sleep in more like that's natural for them and it may be not so good health-wise
to break their natural sleep patterns.
But as far as saying the snooze, it just doesn't make logical sense.
health sense. So I'm not, I'm going to be the first in my family to break the habit.
Come on.
There's a lot. All right.
You think we were talking about something a little more hardcore if you didn't know that it
was the snooze button.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. But yeah.
Snooze girl, Jessica, don't let your fame get to your head, okay?
Love it.
Okay. And Amy, you guys keep going. I'm proud of you guys.
Jessica will talk to you Monday. No snoozing. There we have it.
I like that she's going to do in a full family 23 in me history.
Bobby. I spit in the tube and it came back
and I'm a snoozer. It's home, yeah.
I was watching this video last night.
This family's out on this boat
and they're whale watching.
And all the sudden, this whale, I'm talking about,
almost hits the boat. It comes out and goes,
Waboo! Boom! It's so awesome.
You can kind of get lost in all these videos
because you see it all the time and you go, oh, another whale jumping.
If you saw it a person, it would be cool.
But to watch it on the computer, you go,
oh, I see this all the time on the computer.
but this one's so close
you got to see it,
Bobbybones.com
because you're looking off
in the distance going
where's that way
all going to come from?
And all of a sudden
whoa boom!
Right by the boat, man.
Oh!
Oh!
Bobbybones.com, hit that up.
I'm such a dweeb.
I bought a new hoodie.
I like hoodies.
And I have a tag still on it.
Yeah.
And then Eddie took a picture
of it and posted it.
And that's okay that he did that.
But I can't really do anything right.
Even the little things I do wrong about being a human.
Best tag.
I mean, good thing you found it.
The tags under your arm.
I know.
I'm just, I don't get.
I don't know what's happening.
I don't know.
You've only been in front of us.
Like, imagine if it was later today and you were like,
had to raise your arm for something.
But I wouldn't.
It wouldn't be shocking to me.
Yeah, I know.
Like, I just haven't quite figured this thing out yet.
Life, yeah.
Getting dressed.
The nice shirt, though.
Yeah.
You just bought it?
Well, it's a workout hoodie.
It's a Nike hoodie.
I did just buy it.
Yes.
I can tell.
I can tell.
I've done that before where I went to, I think whenever Dirk spent on him was opening his bar,
and he said, he said, come out.
You know, it's really cool.
So I go out of there a bunch of friends there, and it had on a new pair of pants.
I had the tag still on them.
And it had like the sticker on it.
The size on it.
I don't even know.
And I'm like, I was feeling pretty good because, you know, when you get put new clothes on, you feel pretty good.
You're like, man, kind of feel fresh, feeling.
new and then one of my friends comes up and goes, hey, listen, somebody's got to tell you,
you got a tag for your new pants on your jeans.
You should probably get that off.
Bones, listen.
If you're planning on returning that after you wore it today, I won't judge you.
No, not.
What's wrong with me?
There's a resort company hiring professional vacationers.
Oh, man.
It's a ride-up lunchbox with alley.
You need to go and get this job, man.
Well, I know, but how do I do?
Do I just send a resume or do I have to send a video?
Because I can vacation like a champion.
World's Bestjob.com.
Don't apply.
All right.
Resort companies
looking to hire someone
to travel between their six resorts
for a year
and put up social media content
about everything they have to offer.
Oh my goodness
and guess who's got a good
following on social media?
This guy.
They'll pay you $120,000 to do it.
Wow.
Whoa.
World's best job.com.
There was a drug tunnel in Arizona
found underneath an old KFC.
Straight up Elchapso.
Did you see this?
And the one in Arizona.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah, I saw it.
It's pretty crazy.
I mean, I just can't even believe stuff like that really happens.
Federal authorities have discovered a sophisticated drug smuggling tunnel that went from a home in Mexico to an abandoned fast food restaurant in Arizona.
Isn't it crazy that big?
Yes.
Isn't that long?
It's so crazy to me.
Like, that's what happens in New York under the water so you can go from not Mexico to Arizona in the dirt.
That's crazy.
How do they do that people knowing?
Yes.
I'm always fascinated with.
How many people it took?
How many were they working 24 hours a day?
And then how long?
Police began trailing the owner of this abandoned building
and arrested him this month after finding several packages of, well, lots of drugs in the back of his truck.
They searched his home.
They found a hidden tunnel that led to a house in Mexico.
That was large enough, by the way, the tunnel for people just to walk through free.
That is so crazy.
They'll even, I don't know if this one for sure had it, but some of these tunnels have lights.
Oh, yeah.
Like all the things.
A little trolley thing so you can push.
stuff on a cart, like it's a little man-made train.
Yeah, that way they don't have to carry them all back and forth.
Exactly.
Like Elon Musk goes, hey, we're going to build a tunnel in L.A.
We're like, oh, my goodness, it looks crazy.
You're building the four-mile tunnel.
And they're running these drug tunnels like 100 miles.
Chappos has been doing this way.
Yeah, right?
The Chapo Tesla's been around in Mexico for 50 years.
Holy. I mean, imagine if people applied this stuff to, like, actual legal things.
It's like that locked up when they build radios out of a piece of bologna and a shoe string.
And you're like, wow, you can hear HD,
radio with that. You're like, yeah, and everything else. Like, do that in the real world, man.
Don't I tell you you get to jail? It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Tell me something good.
Two weeks ago in California, there was a fast moving fire. It threatened part of the area.
And the police department was called in. They said, hey, we need you to evacuate all these dogs and cats.
And you may have seen that story on the news with the police go in and they're taking all these evacuation animals.
Carly Stone was one of the officers working with animal.
controlled and she's grabbing all the animals.
One of the dogs she bonded with, he kept trying to send her lap while they were driving
away in a squad car.
So the animal's name was Sean, that was the dog.
She went to visit him in the animal shelter and then she adopted him.
Carly believed Sean recognized her during the shelter visit from whenever she was rescuing
him and now she's actually super happy.
Not that.
Come on.
That's cool.
If your little hairs on your neck didn't raise up a little bit on that, then you're not
very nice.
Come on.
We love animals.
It's a good one.
Well, there you go.
I like that one.
So a big old tell me something good there to Carly Stone.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
I really subscribe to the theory of finding someone that you trust that will also tell you when you're not good at something.
You know, in my last book I wrote that.
Find someone who tells you you you suck.
Because when they finally do tell you do good, you believe them.
Because anybody can tell you're not good.
Anybody can tell you're great.
But if you can find someone you try you.
trust it can tell you either and both, then you really believe it. So I had a friend
reached out to me last night goes, hey, I want to, I want you to go out with this girl. I was like,
all right, I haven't been out. Anyway, what do I know by going out with people? It's been a year, right?
And I was like, okay. He said, I'll let her know and you can text her, you know, DM her.
And so I haven't seen anybody's DMs before. So I get on Instagram and a slide, I feel like
such a loser even saying that. No, no, it's cool. It's cool. Okay. Yeah. So I, and I don't
want to say anything about her. I want to ruin this, but I slide into her DMs. And then I
showed Amy this morning. I didn't even edit. I just said, here's my phone. I trust you with all
your heart. You're honest with me good and bad. You are my best friend. Read this. And then Amy read
my slide. Amy? I have to admit, I was impressed. Wow, really? Yeah, especially in being your
first slide.
Yeah.
So, because it was a little risky because she could have been like, okay, this is kind of
dorky.
But that's me though.
That's me, though.
But that's you.
And so I feel like you were just being you.
So you were honest and you even threw in a little joke about how, you know, can I tell
the joke part?
I'll be paraphrasing.
Go ahead.
It won't be funny.
Is this the opening slide?
Yeah.
This is the opening slide.
I need to visualize as this.
The opening slot.
Can we see if she slid back at this.
Point. Don't worry about that right now. We'll look off the year. We'll get the dance party coming
up in like three minutes. Okay, so he goes in with a joke, which I think is good. Because like
he's got humor. He needs, we got to. What's that? What's that? What's that? What's that? What? Wait, hold on. You tell me how obviously you're cute,
you're good looking, like you're successful, but like you feel like you, your humor gets you further.
What? What? What's that? What? What? What? What? What? What?
Go ahead.
So anyway, he goes with a joke and he's like, hey, I think I'm going to test out this whole
sliding into the DMs thing or whatever.
And he's like, I've been pretty successful or something, but Justin Bieber hasn't replied me yet.
See, this is why people can't tell your jokes.
I know.
I know.
It's like when someone watches like a stand-up special and they try to repeat a joke back.
It doesn't work.
I know.
I can't say exactly.
Just review me.
But he makes a joke about how he's clearly been trying to DM Justin Bieber, but
Bieber hasn't replied.
Which I mean, the joke was, I've never slid into anyone's DMs before successfully.
Been trying to hit up Bieber for a while, but he hasn't replied.
There you go.
That's funny.
That's funny.
There you go.
So it's good.
And then, wait, we're saying much about her or no?
No, no.
But she replied.
Okay.
She replied.
And she hits him back with another.
A funnier joke.
A funnier joke.
She trumped his joke.
I know.
She was like, hey, yeah.
She's like, blah, blah, blah.
And then she ends with, don't worry, I've been unread in Beaver's since 2013.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, okay.
So she obviously has a sense of humor, so I was into that.
And then.
I don't want to share too much.
Yeah, we won't share too much.
How long did it take her to slide back?
I went to sleep.
I didn't know if it was like a slide back and then Bobby slid back and there was a lot of sliding going on.
It's more like, like, slide, slippery slide.
I woke up and then.
Yeah, it's still.
Well, this is just, we're in the beginning phases.
But I was proud of Bobby, and I will tell him honestly.
Like, if you were kind of weird in it, I would have to tell you you're weird.
And that's why I wanted to know.
But I was proud of you.
And we'll speak no more on this.
Okay.
Until the engagement.
Oh, yes.
I love how we go from zero to 60.
What do you want from me, huh?
He did say he didn't want to ruin it, so that's kind of special.
No, it's just that people will hear us talking about it and go, oh, I don't know if I can do this.
Especially early?
This is real early.
But you could be...
I never even met this person.
You're DMing.
It's real early.
Your little story right here could be hope for anybody right now that's like
listening to us thinking they've been wanting to slide into someone's DM but they haven't
had the guts to do it.
Like today's the day.
Yeah.
Start with a joke.
Do it.
Yeah.
You even use Bobby's Beaver joke.
Yeah, whatever.
You don't tell it though.
I still don't get it when Amy says.
I've been wearing this chain from my neck.
Well, it was inspired by Ryan Hurd.
who's probably the coolest guy.
Yeah, he's pretty cool.
He's an artist, a songwriter.
He's Marin Morris's husband.
Some of you ladies know him from that,
from her instance of stories.
But he wears the chain,
and I'm like, I'm going to look like Ryan Hurd.
He's cool.
So I got a chain.
It was given to me.
And so, not a commercial,
I'm wearing it,
and people have been laughing at me
because they think I'm too nerdy
to pull off a chain.
So Mike D, who sits over on the side
and writes games for us,
he's come up.
What's this list over here?
Your top five fashion
statements over the years. And they're all bad.
It's not cool things. None of them are cool
according to him. And this is all because of the chain?
Yeah. Okay. Well,
do you want to do this now or no?
Yeah. Okay, thank you.
Number five, Mike D. The Deep V
used to rock a
deep V paired with some cargo shorts, flip-flops,
and the curly hair. Sometimes so deep
it was like, is that your belly button?
Whatever. Number four, Mike D.
Jorts. You wore a pair of Jorts.
for about a week until everybody made fun of you for wearing jeans shorts.
Well, Sam Hull was wearing them, and I thought Sam Hunk could pull it off.
Why can't I?
Number three?
Yeezies.
Still love them.
Your most expensive phase.
Got a bunch of comments, everybody telling you for wearing God-awful shoes.
All right, number two?
Short-sleeve sweatshirts.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I remember that one.
Wait, whoa, what do you mean about?
I still doing.
I love them.
You guys are hating on everything I do.
Okay, number one, my worst fashion.
Go ahead.
The fanny pack.
We work for about a week to the gym.
They're short-lived, and I really feel like it has more life to it.
It's fanny packs and back.
First of all, I have a fanny pack that I wear
with my sweats and have pockets in them.
I still will wear it.
But people made fun of me.
But it's only because for practicality.
No pockets in a sweatpants, put a fanny pack on it.
Makes sense.
Thank you.
Why don't you wear that to work, though, a little more?
Because I have pockets of my pants.
Okay.
They have pockets of my pants.
Mike D, thank you for that.
A little trip down.
So how long will the chain last?
I don't know, forever.
It gives me power.
I think you need to mix everything Mike D. said and wear it all in one day.
Yes.
Bring that outfit.
V-neck, short sleeve, sweatshirt, fanny pat, all of it.
Lunchbox, did you get that pasta pass from Olive Garden or no?
Oh, man, my wife yesterday, I was going to get it.
And she said, don't worry, I'll wake you up from your nap because I was going to set my alarm.
She goes, don't worry about it.
She fell asleep in the recliner, didn't get the pasta pass because she didn't wake me up.
It was her responsibility to wait me up.
Oh, it's her fault.
Yeah, it was her responsibility to wait me up from my nap.
so I could be online when they went on sale and she failed at her job.
No, no, I think it's you.
It's all on you.
That's a lunchoff problem.
No, no, because I was going to set my alarm and she goes, no, no, don't worry about it.
I will come up and wake you up.
All right.
So you did not get the pasta past this year?
First time in history.
Hey, by the way, tickets to see the daytime stage at the IHeart Radio Music Festival are $29 today with no additional fees.
It is no fee Friday, your chance to see people like Dustin Lynch and even Eddie in my band,
The Raging Idiots.
Woo!
Yeah, we're going to be playing.
So $29.
And it starts right now, and we'll roll till tonight, $29 a ticket.
Just go over to...
Where do they go?
There's no site on here.
IHRadio.com.
Somebody get me any site there?
Yeah.
Slash tickets.
Slash tickets.
Thank you, Morgan, number two.
She's on it.
Gee, they give me all the information except the execution point.
I was reading this story about country music stars that have been arrested.
Oh.
In honor of Gretchen Wilson?
Oh, good.
Yeah.
So...
It happens.
She gets into some sort of.
of Tiff, Gretchen Wilson does, and then demands to be arrested by the cops, which I thought was
quite Gretchen of her.
And they cooperated?
They did.
Good for them, too.
They said, you got it, Gretchen.
Gretchen Wilson's recent arrest have me wondering what other country artists have been arrested,
or maybe going over some of these stories.
So I grabbed a few of them.
There's a very famous one with Kenny Chesney-Tam McGraw.
What is that?
The horse punch?
Horses, yes.
Do you know this, I'm going to.
Was this in Austin?
Yeah, I remember it now.
No.
It's one that they don't like talking about so much.
So let me have a second.
Okay, yeah, you'll talk about it.
On June 3, 2000, Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw were headlining a show in Buffalo, New York.
Not the best song for this, sir.
According to news reports, Kenny asked the daughter of a sheriff's deputy if he could ride his horse.
He then rode away ignoring orders to stop.
Like, no, no.
Two officers tried to remove Kenny from the horse.
and Tim McGraw and his manager then got involved.
The country music icons were arrested.
A year later, all three men were found innocent of any wrongdoing.
Oh, good.
But apparently there's a whole point.
You know, the story's changed.
Throughout the years.
Yeah, who really knows what happened.
Who knows, who knows, he knows.
But apparently, yeah, it's funny that he's like, hey, can ride the horse?
Nope.
I'm Kenny Chesney.
I'm Kenny Chesney.
Get along.
And Kenny Jesse is riding his horse down to the long.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
How about what?
we go to Jake Owen.
Jake was arrested late Saturday night, May 5th, 2012.
Jake shared a photo of himself cuffed, and next to a cop car,
shortly after he was tossing back a beer with a buddy and celebrating Cinco to Mayo.
Jake told Taste of Country, I got arrested in my own hometown.
I was wearing an old man mask, and the sheriff decided to rip me out of a steak and shake
and embarrassed me in front of my family. Classic.
Wow.
So, there you go.
Again, who's it up?
Who knows?
Yeah, I'm like...
Did he get a horse?
Then who cares?
There's got to be more to that, right?
I don't know anybody being arrested for just wearing a mask.
Well, lunchbox did once at a store.
Well, this is a panty hose.
Johnny Cash.
Let's go with Johnny Cash.
Johnny Cash was arrested twice.
The first was after a trip to Mexico when he tried to hide over a thousand pills in his guitar case.
Yeah, that's in the movie.
When he crossed back over in El Paso, 1965.
and since the drugs were prescription
instead of illegal narcotics,
he received a suspended sentence.
Now I'd be a bit different today
because if they're not prescribed to you,
they're considered illegal.
Not that they weren't illegal, but...
A thousand pills, man.
It's a lot of pills.
And then he was arrested again in 1966
in Starkville, Mississippi,
for picking flowers late at night.
The property owner pressed trespassing charges
in Johnny Cashment Time
in Starkville County Jail
resulting in a song of the same name.
So there you go.
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison.
And time keeps dragon old
He was just getting flowers
Yeah, I don't get that one
Probably for June
Get off my property
I'm gonna get on your property
Eddie and I were talking last night
We did a new episode of the Bobbycast
Talking about musical movies
And you can search that
Wherever you listen to your podcasts
But Eddie
Think of Johnny Cash as a rock and roll star
I think of Johnny Cash is the most country person
Because I grew up in Arkansas
And he was in Arkansas
And he was the king of country
Eddie only knows him as like rock and roll
Cash is rock and roll
Which is funny to me
What do you think of Johnny Cash?
Country.
Yeah, me too.
Oh, wow.
The most country.
But we got on the conversation
how my grandma would go watch Johnny Cash
and people would be going,
that's not country, that's rock and roll.
They would do what people are doing now
to the Sam Hunt's, Florida, Georgia lines.
That's not country.
They were doing that to Johnny Cash,
which they would later do to Garth Brooks,
which people are still doing today.
That's why I get so irritated
when anyone goes, that's not country.
Because you're what has been said over and over again
to all the greats
that have broken these molds.
And so my grandma always said people would protest.
Like, this is a country.
They would show up outside and curse him and yell at people.
Like, that's like country music.
And it's Johnny Cash.
One of the only two people, by the way,
to be in the rock and roll and country hall of fame.
The other one being Elvis.
That's right.
And I don't think Elvis being country at all.
Yeah, he's a straight rock and roll too.
Straight rock and roll.
Gospel a bit, because we would listen to gospel records from Elvis.
Yeah.
But really not country.
To me.
I like that we're both right, though.
A little bit of country, a little bit of rock and roll,
both in the Hall of Fame.
It's pretty cool.
In both Hall of Fame.
Yeah.
So anyway, there you go.
You like that segment?
Learn a little music history.
Yeah.
Kid Rock got arrested at Waffle House in 2007.
Yeah, they fought with other patrons, apparently.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I hope I'm not alone when I feel like this, but I have all these weird places that hair grows.
Like, I could go and get a haircut on just my earlobes.
What age did it start?
I don't know.
I just looked up and it was just like fully grown out.
Yeah.
It's like a bush.
growing out of my earlobe.
And I go and sometimes I would be like, hey, don't forget to get my sideburns.
Now I have to go, hey, don't forget to cut my earlobe hair.
So I have to remind her.
Is that all guys?
It doesn't come from inside my ear.
I know what you're talking about.
I don't know.
Is it thick or is it fuzzy?
Somewhere in the middle.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
That's happening.
My nose hair grows at a rapid rate.
I swear I'll pull them all out or trim them.
And the next day I'm like, what is it?
And there's a whole bushel in there too.
and then my belly button around my belly button
It's growing around there
Really?
It's like the most fertile hair spots
Out of your belly button?
No, but around it?
Yeah
I don't even understand what's happening
You're just sprouting hair
I know
Everything does it grow in
Lucky you
Do you know your ears and your nose
Never stop growing?
I mean I've noticed that on people
As I've watched them get older
That their nose and ears can grow
They keep growing
So the older you are
The bigger your ears and your nose are
How about that?
Yeah, my abuelito, my grandpa, his, whoo, he had the biggest nose and the biggest years before he died.
Because he was old?
Yeah.
I looked at him and I'm like, oh, I got something to look forward to.
Thanks, grandpa.
If you're lucky, meaning if you live.
Oh, right.
If you're lucky, you get that.
Hey, what was that scavenger hunt you were doing, lunchbox?
Oh, my gosh.
They were giving away $2,000 in cash.
Who is they?
It was just something called breakout games.
I didn't know anything about it.
I just saw it on the news.
They said they're going to hide $2,000 in my neighborhood.
What?
your neighborhood?
In my neighborhood.
And at 5.30,
every 30 minutes they just
put coordinates on their website.
You type them in your phone and you
race to that location.
You search for the $100 bills
that are hidden in that location.
I was there with the baby,
with my wife.
You took the baby?
Wait, you took the baby?
We haven't even seen the baby.
You took the baby on a scavenger hunt
to make money?
To be fair, we were just on a walk.
And there was all these people,
and we found out about it and we jumped in the middle of the scavenger hunt.
And so they do the location and I am one block away.
I run.
I am the fifth person in the park.
I'm searching, digging in the bushes, pulling up picnic tables, diving on the ground,
look in the bushes.
I'm like, it's not here.
And I move over, start looking in a tree.
Some lady walks up behind me in the bushes I was looking in.
Found the $100.
Oh, wow.
I didn't do a thorough enough search.
I was that close to $100.
So then the next location I had to predict.
I just thought, I was like, where could that?
they hide it. Without even knowing the coordinates, I went to a location, started looking around,
and my wife goes, it's not going to be here. Let's move. So we go two blocks away. 30 minutes later,
they say the coordinates. It was that park. So I missed another. My wife cost me 100 bucks. It was so,
there was hundreds of people running cars, people jumping out of cars, running through parts.
It was so fun. I was kind of nudging people in the bushes, like, get out of my way.
But what was the deal? They were just giving away money? They were just giving away $2,000. They're doing it all over the
country. They did it in Memphis a couple days ago, and so I guess you go to their website and
their cities all across the U.S. But they just gave away $2,000 like that. So that's what you
did yesterday. Oh, yeah. Let me tell you. So exciting. Amy, what did you do? I did not do any of that.
I did not do scour. What did I do? I had some comments calls and meeting. My friend came over and
worked out. It told you my pregnant friend. So we worked out for like over an hour. It was amazing. And then
just hung out with kids. Road bikes when picked up dinner.
How's math homework going?
Oh, I mean. Did you do it last night? It is what it is. Yeah, we have math homework every night.
I'm like, when is the math going to stop? But we've started to incorporate jelly beans
to help my daughter have a visual on how many numbers are out there. And I got to tell you,
the jelly beans make her get it. Like, she gets it way better than like doing lines, like to represent
a number. You know, like, you know, just a mark, a tally mark.
and now jelly beans have taken the place of tally marks and it's pretty amazing.
Does she get to eat the jelly beans?
No.
I mean...
What?
Wait, wait, you don't reward her with the jelly beans?
At the end, if we've done well, then yeah, you can have a few of the jelly beans, but not the ones we're like playing with.
We keep those now in a special baggie that says math.
Oh, the math beans.
Well, that's interesting.
Math beans, yeah.
I mean, I think I'm going to have to bring in outside help.
Four.
I contacted this place called the Learning Lab or, you know, one of those little, you see them in strip mall.
Like, they're little tutor places where your kids can go for extra help.
I don't think there's any other choice because I'm not capable.
You need help in math?
I was really good in math.
Were you really?
Yeah.
You know who tutored me?
No teeth Keith.
He had a math degree from the University of Texas.
And I'm telling you, algebra, what do you need?
I can do it.
I'm real good at math.
How would he talk to you about math?
Kid, okay, kid.
So what you're going to do is you're going to take the X over here and you're going to need to move it over here.
Now, kid, don't get frustrated.
I know.
I know it's hard.
But kid, we'll get it.
Just calm down.
All right, kid.
So then you're going to take the Y?
And no teeth, Keith didn't have any teeth.
No, he didn't have any teeth.
And you weren't related to him.
No, no, he was first my brother's baseball coach and then my baseball coach.
And he didn't have any kids, but he coached at Balconi's Little League.
And he was an amazing dude, had a degree and his math skills were phenomenal.
Where were his teeth?
Oh, they were gone.
I don't know.
I don't know.
He had no teeth at all?
No, well, he did end up getting dentures, but then he would carry his.
him in his pocket because he didn't want to stain him.
But I'm saying he had no, like all of his teeth.
He didn't want to what? Stain them?
Yeah.
I mean, I get it. I don't want our new shoes sometimes.
I don't get dirt on them.
That's good point.
Yeah, so I don't, I, I, I don't know.
I mean, you have the teeth, but what was he, what was he putting his mouth that was
going to stain them?
And nobody eat with no teeth.
Oh, he could eat anything.
Enchiladas.
Soft things.
With gum.
Yeah, he'd just chew with his gum.
He would gum it.
Yeah, he'd gum it.
Probably not crunchy tacos.
Yeah, probably not biting into an hour.
Did you ever see him, you know, maybe grab an apple?
Yeah, no, I don't think I've ever seen him eat, maybe like a sliced apple, but I don't, I mean.
Even that, like.
Did he have back teeth?
No, no, no teeth.
No teeth?
When I say no teeth, Keith, I literally mean no teeth.
And let's not get it twisted.
No teeth Keith and Arkansas Keith are two different people.
Correct.
Just want to make sure that's out there.
Yeah, because I have no, I still don't know.
When I met him, he had no teeth.
And you never asked him, hey, dude, what about those teeth?
No, I didn't say, kid, whatever.
ever having your teeth.
But his nickname's no teeth key, so I think that would open the door to asking
him about his nickname.
Well, I was a kid, I guess I just never thought about it.
We called him today.
I can call him today.
I talked to him the other day.
But yeah, if you need math help, I'm your guy.
He's your guy.
Good luck.
Good luck with that.
You good?
I mean, honestly, I'll take all the help I can get.
So maybe.
Maybe you should swing by.
All right, let me know.
There we go.
The Bible Show.
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
it's almost time for fantasy football
and there's something really cool
that this organization is doing. It's called
GM Genius and it's an educational
nonprofit group and it's using fantasy football to teach students
critical thinking skills and as an added
bonus they offer scholarship money to the top players
as well. So you can play fantasy football
and get school money and this is for real. Nearly a thousand
students participated last season and more than
$20,000 in scholarship money was given away.
That's cool. Yeah.
So definitely check that out.
Steve Jobs' daughter, she details her relationship with her dad in a new memoir.
It is called Small Fry.
So if that's something you might be into, I'm just going to let you know that it's now out and worth checking out.
She talks of her relationship with her father over the years and how it has shaped her.
Yeah, so I read the original Steve Jobs book, and he talks about how awful of a daddy was.
First of all, he denied that that was his daughter.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, he wasn't a good dude.
No one, even Steve Jobs doesn't argue that he was a good dude.
That's so crazy.
Yeah, and that's a good book.
And he wrote it, the guy that wrote it for him, wrote it while Steve Jobs is alive.
And Steve Jobs said, I don't want to know about it.
Finish it.
Talk to everybody, good and bad.
And then once it's published, I'll read it.
It's crazy.
So, but yeah, so she's writing her story.
Yeah, it's called Small Frye.
She said she bags on him a bit, but she's like, I don't, the point of it isn't that.
It's how you can get through that and over that.
So I'm not going to read that book, but it's interesting.
Oh, I found, I might check it out.
So, and then, I don't know, I'll just end with this little tidbit for the weekend.
If you want to train to become Batman or some of his skills,
it would take a person approximately 15 to 18 years to do all the training to become Batman.
That's not good.
I mean, so it's possible.
I'm in.
It's a long time, man.
That's the one like, because he's not, he's one of the ones he's not a superhero.
He's a rich person that has stuff.
He has means.
And bravery.
His name is Bruce Wayne.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So it's possible.
Yeah, there you go.
But you'll need about 18 years.
And $18 billion in a cave.
Yes.
That is it?
I mean, that's my file.
Bobby Boom.
Come on.
We enter the weekend.
I'm going to go to D.C.
I'm doing a stand-up show at Warner Theater, which is really one of the finer theaters.
It's awesome.
I love playing these really nice theaters.
So it's sold out tonight, which is exciting.
So a couple thousand people are going to come watch me tell some jokes.
Oh, wow.
And then I'll be in Durham tomorrow night.
Kind of your old neck aim.
Yeah, RDU.
At Carolina Theater show sold out.
What can I say?
I love it.
I can't believe it.
I can't believe people come.
I'll be honest with you.
I can't believe it.
So, yeah, I'm going to go do that and go put in a couple nights' work, be back on Sunday.
And we'll do it again.
What do you say?
Sounds like the plan.
Yeah.
What did you check going on?
Just lots of kids stuff and hair stuff.
Honestly, told you it's hair weekend for my daughter.
Yeah.
So tonight we'll be undoing the hair.
And tomorrow we'll be doing the hair for six hours.
It's a long process.
Yeah, lunchbox.
Man, I got baby duty.
That's basically what I do now.
It's my life.
But I don't know if that's the case because you're always like,
took six hour nap, played soccer for 11 games street.
Well, I'm saying I have to take care of the baby when I'm home.
Yeah.

What about your wife?
Is she there with you?
Yeah, she's there with me.
But if she wants to go somewhere, I'll be on baby duty.

What does she do?
Does she like go hang out with friends and stuff?
Sometimes.
Is she back? That's cool, huh?
Yeah, go grab some lunch or something real quick.
Nothing major.
She doesn't go shopping or anything.
Oh, that's major?
Yeah.
Shopping's major.
How is she physically kind of back?
Yeah, she feels good.
