Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
This is the Bobby Bones show.
That's right.
Hey, here we are on Tuesday.
The whole gang's here.
How are we feeling?
Morning studio.
Morning.
Pretty good.
It's that day because I flew overnight last night, and I landed.
And I came and did radio with no sleep, but I'm feeling great today.
So heads up, Amy.
Tomorrow will be back.
Tomorrow.
Trust me.
I know.
It's coming.
I know.
We know each other this well now.
I'm feeling pretty good today.
I get a lot of sleep, but I'm good.
I was talking with the American Island.
about that. The ones that are left, there are five left. They're all so tired at this point
because as soon as that shows over, they get up the next day and they're going again.
And they're like, what do we do? We're so tired. And I'm like, listen. What do you tell them?
First of all, suck it up. You got like two more weeks. This is a once in a lifetime experience.
Even if you don't win the show in your life 10 years from now, if you go decide to be an accountant
or if you go decide to, you know, just be a stay-at-home dad or whatever it is you're doing,
you're going to look back on this time and go, man, that was crazy.
And you don't want to remember it being just whining about being tired all the time.
And secondly, there's an end in sight.
It was like when I was doing Dancing with the Stars, I was exhausted.
But I knew I had four weeks left, two weeks left.
Like, if it were indefinite, I would be like, yeah, guys, you really need to take care of yourself.
And now it's like, take care of yourself just to the end point.
And stop whining.
There's 10,000 other people that would love to be where you are right now.
Yeah.
It gets a bit tough-lovy at this point because everyone's so tired.
And Nightline came and did a whole story on me.
And they came and watched some mentoring, but they're doing a whole special on me, apparently.
Well, that's cool.
When can we watch it?
I don't know.
Oh.
I don't know.
They just follow me around all day and they did an interview.
But that was part of it.
They kind of watched me mentor them.
And you kind of forget the cameras there because they do a good job of hiding.
And I was, I don't know if I'm not mean.
But sometimes people just need to hear, hey, A to B.
and get on with your life.
Not here's a little bit of A, dibble dabble, gooboo, gooboo.
Oh.
That's what I would give them.
Yeah, but it's just not efficient.
So there are five left on American Idol, and people will get on me like I'm the one voting people off.
I'll look at my Instagram, and people will be like, I can't believe that Jeremiah got voted off.
You should do more.
What do you want me to do?
I'm not a judge.
I'm not even America.
I sit back there and mentor them off the show and then a little bit on them.
show. So,
top five, it'd be good.
Next week, when the show comes up, I pick
one entire
set of songs film. Every single
song I picked. And
did they all got to prove the songs you picked,
obviously? A couple of them
didn't, so I had to move to second choices.
Oh, Lou. But it's all good.
Like, but I get to pick all the songs, and I reveal
them to them. Yeah, it's real good.
I saw on
Instagram, I posted a picture
of Ryan Seacrest and myself, standing
beside each other. Amy, you know
Ryan sees that stuff when you write that, right?
No, no, he doesn't. He does? No way. He does. Ryan follows
me on Instagram. He does. My bad.
My bad. My bad. Okay, well, Ryan was
like, okay, the photo, however it was, I don't know,
but you looked really taller.
You looked much taller than him. Well, I am taller than he is.
Well, I mean, but the photo is very evident. And you put smiling
because, I don't even remember what you really wrote.
Yeah, I was like smiling because this is my job. I get to be on TV and you're like.
And then Amy wrote, smiling because you're
way taller than Ryan Seacrest.
There's no way he saw that.
Yeah.
Go on.
Like, we hang out and talk during the show.
It's what, like, so y'all legit have time together?
It's like, what do y'all talk about during commercial breaks?
Like, Instagram comments?
Not yet.
Not until next week.
Oh, great.
Mostly, this is us every commercial break when we're talking.
Because we don't talk every commercial break.
But if I'm up, we're doing a segment together, three or four times a night, he'll be like,
Hey, what was your work schedule like today?
How do you, and I'll be like, hey, how do you do your countdown in the middle of flying?
And so basically, we're comparing notes on how to be more efficient.
Oh, I love that because we're both all over the place doing a lot of things.
And what he does, which is crazy, as soon as that show is over on Sunday night,
he gets on an airplane and flies right to New York and then lands and does live with Kelly and Ryan.
Wow.
Where, you know, I guess I got on an airplane last night after I taped Idol and did the same thing.
but his airplanes are much nicer.
And probably faster.
And doesn't have to wait for other people.
He doesn't have to get a bed in it.
He doesn't have to check his luggage.
We're here.
Everybody, you go to name?
Yeah, I'm doing good.
Lunchbox, how are you?
I'm great.
Eddie?
I'm good, bones, thanks.
Eddie sent me a note there were measles at LAX.
Yeah.
So I read a news story that there was measles.
A guy that has the measles was at LAX.
Oh, dear.
FYI.
What do you do?
Not go to airports?
Well, don't touch the escalator, like handles, don't go to the bathroom, like, stuff like that.
Yeah, wear a mask.
Like, don't look people in the eye.
Right.
Yes.
Here's the Bobby Bones Show podcast, highlight segment of the day.
You know, on Saturday night was our I-Heart Country Festival, and it was so good, but it's always
the stories we bring back from it.
And Eddie was telling me that Lunchbox was asking him to steal the toilet paper from the hotel.
Yeah, it was about check-up, like, checkout time, and he sent me a text.
He goes, hey, will you grab the toilet paper left in your bathroom and shampoos and soaps, please?
I was like, why?
He's like, because I want them.
Like, what are you talking about?
So Lutzbox, when you leave a hotel room, you take everything?
Take everything.
They charge you for it.
It's in the room, so you might as well take it with you.
Let's say you used half a roll of toilet paper.
They're not going to leave that half roll for the next guest.
They just take it and throw it away.
So you might as well take it home with you and use it at your house because, I mean,
toy bear is pretty good.
And the shampoo, they're not going to, that half bottle, because you've used it a couple times.
They're not going to give it to the next guest.
they throw it away.
So, and they do leave an extra roll at toilet bear where they have two rolls in the room at all times.
You take both of them because you paid for that room and that's part of the charge.
Bones, he is serious.
Yeah.
Well, I think they do use the roll that is the extra roll.
And I think that I don't use the shampoo in a hotel.
I never use.
Just the bar of soap is the only thing that I use.
So I would leave all of that, but you take it anyway?
Oh, I take it anyway.
Even if I mean body gel, I'm not a really body of gel person.
I'm more of the bar soap kind of guy, but I still take it.
Take it home.
That way, if I have guests, I put it in my downstairs bathroom.
So do you have a whole cabinet full of stuff you take from hotels?
Absolutely.
I got jars full of the shampoo, the body wash, the bars of soap, all that.
Eddie, did you get the stuff and take it to him?
Absolutely not.
Exactly.
I was like, no, I'm not doing that.
Well, I don't understand why.
It's no hassle to you.
All you got to is put in your hands, come down the elevator and hand it to me.
It's not that hard.
And that's what I was worried about.
I'm going to have rolls of toilet papers, shampoo bottles in my hands,
going down to the lobby of the hotel.
I'm like, no, I'm not doing it.
It does feel a bit like you're stealing.
Yeah.
What are you talking about?
Might as well take the robes too in the hang?
No, that you can't.
No, no, no, no.
No, a question.
So if you put that robe on you,
they just leave it for the next person?
No, they wash it.
I assume.
Yeah, they wash it.
If it, yeah.
Do you guys use the robe?
No.
No.
I don't either.
No.
I don't use the robe.
And so at your house,
you have a whole cabinet full of toilet paper
from other places? Well, toilet paper, no, because I just use it. Like, I mean, I put it,
like, whenever I run out of a roll, I just use their toilet paper. But soaps, shampoos, body
wash, I got it all. I'm telling you, if you stay in my house, do you stay in my guest room,
the guest bathroom is supplied by hotels across the country. It's like lunchboxes' guest
room by Hilton. Yeah. I mean, this is how bad, when I was first starting, when I was in college,
I stayed at hotel and I'd just steal the towels in the swimming pool. That was how I had towels in my
house.
Because you knew they weren't tracking those who were all tracking room towels.
They only tracked the room towels.
So you go down to the pool, get a couple towels, put them in your bag, good to go.
So when you stole all those backpacks from the charity that one time?
Yep.
What did you ever do with three backpacks?
Well, I sold one to my sister just this past weekend.
She was in the market for a new backpack.
She was at the store shopping when I was on the phone with her.
She goes, I'm just looking at like a $20 backpack.
And I said, hey, I'll sell you one for $20.
So I took one of the backpacks with me and I sold it to her for $20.
So one at your sister, two, you got it free from a charity, which you weren't even supposed to take it.
And then you sold it?
And then you didn't give the money to the charity?
No, I gave it to myself because I realized, okay, I had three backpacks.
I hadn't used all three yet.
One was brand new, so my sister needed a backpack, so I gave it to her.
Yeah, we got that.
Good guy.
Yeah.
Classy moves.
Guys, it's called being a smart businessman.
That's what, like, the hotel shampoo and toilet paper and all that, I'm saving myself
money by doing that. You guys don't want to be on that level? Fine.
One day I aspire to get to your level.

The Bobby Bone Show. This is Chris in Colorado. What's up, buddy?
Hey, what's going on? Just doing a radio show, man. Hope we're entertaining you as the morning
goes along. Oh, yes, definitely entertaining me, sir. What would you like to say?
I just wanted to say, appreciate all of you guys at the studio and Amy. I've been on
recruiting duty with the Marines for nine years, traveling all over Texas, New Mexico, and
now living in Colorado.
And I've been listening to you guys since you were in Austin.
And I appreciate the drive home or the drive to work every single day for about an hour.
And you guys make me laugh about all the competitions and everything you guys do with each other.
Oh, I appreciate that.
I appreciate what you do too.
Okay, and I feel like you're going to be honest with this for a second.
So this is what I've been struggling with a bit with the show, is that I personally love to play games.
I love games.
I love games away from the show.
I love to play games on the show.
and Mike D and I will basically now talk through the show a bit off the air
and I'll go hey if we play a game here
I don't know if we can play another one for the rest of the day
I think people are tired of us playing games somewhat
Chris how do you feel about when we play games on the show
Absolutely not that's honestly that's my favorite part
If I feel like I miss the game while I'm driving to work or have to stop or something
I feel like I ruined my day
So that's my favorite part especially love all y'all's little music you have after you win
especially lunch boxes, but I think they're all great.
That's the best part of the show, honestly, is the games, I think.
Okay.
Listen, I can be wrong.
I'm in the middle of it every day.
So right now we have a rule of, what, within two hours?
We try not to play a single game within two hours, and I think we'll keep that going.
Is there anything else we want to ask them?
So is there a segment that you kind of don't like, Chris, where you're like, you know, not the biggest fan of this, but I'll handle it?
No, honestly, I like it all because everybody has that they throw their own flavor to it.
So I kind of, I like it all.
Honestly, there's not one thing I don't really like.
Is there a musical artist that you love?
Like when it comes on, like who is your, this is my dude, this is my girl?
Sam Hunt.
Don't you wish he'd put out some music?
Let's be honest, Chris.
I do.
I know he's listening right now.
He listens every morning, all show, all five hours.
Say something to Sam right now.
Hey, Sam, man.
You need to put some more music out for us.
Marines, some patriotic stuff so that we can cheer you on a little bit more.
Yeah, buddy. Come on, Sam. What's your favorite Sam Hunt song, Chris?
Honestly, I just like them all. They all run together for me. I love them all.
All right. Here's what I do that. I'm going to play you one. Appreciate you. Appreciate your
work with the Marines. You say you're nine years in? Yes, or no, 16 years. I've just been recruiting
for nine. Holy crap. Look at this guy right here. All right. Hey, I appreciate you.
I do have one question if I could ask real quick.
Absolutely.
What is Lunchbox's favorite player on the challenge?
What's the challenge?
Oh, it's MTV.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, buddy.
Yeah, I mean, how can it not be bananas, dude?
Yeah.
That's what I'm talking about.
Wes and bananas.
Are you going to watch it on the Moripovit?
What, Moripovich?
Yeah, they're going on there talking crap to each other and doing the lie detector on how much they hate each other.
You got to watch it.
It's in like May 11th.
I'm on it.
Look at this.
Okay.
Yeah, buddy.
Yeah, I do like West 2, though, but they're rivals, so it's a little weird like in both of them.
Absolutely.
Well, hey, again, I love all you guys.
Thank you for what you do, and you guys have a wonderful rest of your week.
Appreciate you, Chris.
All right.
All right, thank you, buddy.

Bobby Bonson.
The latest from Nashville and Hollywood.
Morgan number two, 30 second skinny.
Carrie Underwood's son Isaiah came out for some of Carrie's first tour stops
and her husband Mike Fisher posted on Instagram that every time Carrie would come close to
them while performing, he would yell, Mommy, I love you.
I like it when they put kids in big headphones.
So cute.
That's why I want to have a kid, only for that reason.
Just so I can have a baby and buy some gigantic headphones
They'll put them on their head
And then once they grow out of that
I'll give them to Eddie
Oh, it'll fit me perfectly
No, no, not the headphones
You take all the kids
You just want babies with headphones
Yeah yeah yeah what else Morgan number two
Keith Urban was stuck in Miami, Florida
because the airport was closed due to weather
And his next show was about an hour and a half away
So he ubered to his other show
He posted a thank you to his Uber driver
And told him he saved the show
Isn't that funny?
Keith Urban had an Uber an hour
First of all, I think, how much was the Uber drive?
Like, that's what I wonder.
And secondly, did the guy know it was Keith Urban?
Did he give him five stars, or could he not understand him because of his accent?
You know, a lot of these things, and does Keith Urban tip him big time on the app, or does he give him cash?
Yeah, and does he pay attention to the stars?
Like, is he like, was conversation good?
Did he have candy water?
I know.
Those are all the things that I wonder.
But that's pretty cool.
What else, Morgan, number two?
Dolly Parton has a line of jewelry, accessory.
and home goods coming, they're supposed to celebrate Dolly and bring her iconic style and personality
through the products.
I'm Morgan number two.
That's your skinny.
It's time for the good news.
With Amy.
Tell me something good.
So when you have cancer and you're going through chemotherapy, like eating is a really big deal,
but your taste buds change and you're not really hungry and there's only certain foods that you want.
Well, there's this guy and all he was craving was this soup from this restaurant,
J.C.'s cafe in Illinois.
And some people post about it on Facebook.
Well, the owner of J.C.'s Cafe Juan, he found out about this guy Noah.
And he's been delivering him soup four times a week for the last year, hand delivering it to his house and making sure that he has the soup so that he gets, you know, the nutrients and calories that he needs.
That's pretty cool.
And it reminds me of what St. Jude does at the hospital where, you know, the chefs there will learn what the kids like.
and even if it's like a special recipe from home
because it's so hard to get the kids to eat
sometimes when they're on chemo.
Yeah.
And so they want to make it exactly like
whatever makes them feel the best
and the most comfortable.
That's a good story. Come on. That's a good one.
That's what it's all about right there.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
Bobby Bones show.
Bonehead.
Norrie of the day.
This story comes us from Michigan.
A man was driving a stolen car
when police tried to pull him over.
He's like, you know what?
Got to run for it.
Leads him on a high speed chase,
loses them, gets two blocks away, and he looks, and he goes, man, I'm running out of gas.
So he pulls up at the gas pump and tries to fill up with gas.
Wow.
What problem is?
Practical.
Yeah, they were two blocks back there, but they caught up in time before he could fill up the tank and get away.
So we got to rush at the gas pump.
I can't totally hate on that because you're going to get caught anyway if you just keep going.
Give it a shot.
At least you have a fighting chance to get a little, you know?
It's like back in the day I'd put like $2 in.
is all I had.
I get to guys just like trying to make a quick.
Wow, look at that.
Oh, I'm Lunchbox.
That's your Bonehead story of the day.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bones.
Let me know.
I'm a translet it.
I get a lot of nicknames, some good, some bad.
But you know my favorite nickname, Eddie.
Yeah, country music's youngest historian.
Yep.
Here we go.
On this day in country music.
The Bobby Bones show.
On this day in country music.
Today in 1982, Willie Nelson's always on my mind
was it number one on the country chart.
Here you go.
It's so good.
Top 15 country songs, in my opinion, of all time.
Now, not my favorite Willie song.
Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain, favorite Willie song.
But I love that one.
Now here's the fun facts about this song.
Several artists, three different artists,
released this song before Willie did.
The song was first recorded by BJ Thomas in 1970.
Here's the clip of that.
to you were always on my mind.
Mama.
My mind.
Brenda Lee's version
hit number 45 in
1972.
Here you go.
I think Brenda Lee
also did a very famous
Christmas song.
Eddie, you know this?
Yes.
Dancing or,
rocking around the Christmas Street.
Rocking around the Christmas Street.
There you go.
And then Elvis took
Always on my mind
to number 16
on the country charts in 1972.
Here you go.
You were always on my mind.
And then Willie was the first ticket to number one.
It won three Grammys and a single other year at the CMAs.
And one final time, Willie Nelson, always on my mind.
Here you go.
Oh, music history for you.
You're on the Bobby Bone Show.
You like that, Amy, or no?
I do, yeah.
I always find it interesting when people put out the song before that I had no idea.
It's a Bobby Bone Show.
Amy, let me ask you a baby question.
Yeah.
And about me.
Because, you know, I'm dating right now.
and I'm 39 years old.
That being said, I would still like to have a couple of kids.
So that being said, like, what's kind of the age range that you think I should date?
Because if I date older than me, it's tough to have a baby there, right?
But still possible.
I feel like you can't discriminate because of that.
Sure, I can discriminate for a lot of reasons.
I'm wondering which reasons should I.
No, I think someone your age is fine.
Your age or younger.
Your age or younger.
How young?
Really?
Not making a joke, but really.
I know.
I know.
For you, I struggle with how young.
But 28, at least, maybe.
At least?
Like 10 years away from you.
What about a little younger?
No, 28, 29.
I feel like that's, but I mean, you could probably meet a 26-year-old that could work.
But, you know, I'd have to meet her.
She'd have to be really mature.
Bones, anything's possible.
I mean, you can make anything work.
Put your mind to it.
Well, I'm not training for a race.
You know?
I mean, I just don't know how much you're going to have in common and be able to like,
because like there's a life like a pattern that you live and she's going to be way behind you.
Yeah.
And you want her to be established in what she's doing in her career and her goals and driven.
Because that's what you're attracted to.
And I'm sure.
What's a way to think about that?
Oh, gosh.
She's going to say 18.
Look, the younger you go, the longer she's going to be hot.
That's the scenario you're looking at because you're going to get a 24-year-old pregnant.
Her body's going to bounce back a lot faster than a 34-year-old you get pregnant.
So you can go down to 21.
I mean, really 18, but you won't go that low.
I'm not going to.
What's wrong with you?
Well, he could.
Look, they're going to be attracted to you for your fame and you're going to be attracted to for hotness and it'll work.
You know
Bontat
What do you think
about all that
Yeah why don't you tell us
Your age
I mean I feel like my
I just told you guys
Weren't going low enough
That's why you had to bring me in
Reallyistic
No that's not why
I just wondered what you really thought
I don't know
I don't think it matters so much
I just
I have a couple of baby stories
I'm going to read
And I was so like to have kids
And so for me
As you get older
It gets harder to have kids
unfairly for women
I'm a dude
I could have kids
I'm 60 70
You know
I don't want to do that
Here's a story
A mom gives birth
to a 13 pound
I'm son.
Oh, wow.
That's big.
Naturally without an epidural.
And doctors cannot figure out where his size comes from.
Why, both the parents are small?
Yeah.
That's exactly it.
Wow.
Well.
Her name is Nikki.
She's 33.
She gave birth to her second son, Tobias, 13 pounds.
And the family's doctor said it was very unnatural for babies to be born that size, obviously.
Is that the biggest baby you've heard of?
No.
We've talked about like 15 pounders.
We have.
I don't know if they were in America, but...
Wow.
The average birth weight for babies is around 7.5 pounds.
Mm-hmm.
Here's another one.
A baby girl shocks her mother because she was born with two front teeth.
See? I told you all this happens.
You did say that.
It's like a piranha.
I know.
The mom discovered her daughter was born with two front bottom teeth.
Born C-section, 6 pounds, 12 ounces.
Her teeth were removed an hour later.
Wow.
Because they said it could have been a choking hazard.
Wow.
Okay.
So they pulled her lip down.
What?
Oh, that's just terrible.
Right.
If she was born, they had to pull her teeth out.
And I wonder if those are her baby teeth, and that's it.
The next one's going to be the real ones.
What if they were veneers?
It's another option.

According to TMZ, I read this article,
Kim Kardashian makes a million bucks per Instagram post.
Wow.
Yeah, like some of the big ones that she does, a million bucks.
She filed legal documents revealing just how incredibly powerful and
influential she is, and it's just money.
Like, she's in a lawsuit against a clothing company that always, like,
steals her looks. And so apparently, she's like, okay, let me prove how much what I do is worth
and what they're stealing from me. And so she had to reveal what she's worth. And so some of her
posts, she makes half a million dollars. Some of her posts, she makes a million dollars per post.
Wow. Wow. She frequently turns down offers for big, big money because she doesn't want to be
associated with bad brands, though. Like brands that don't reflect her. And I can get that. I understand
that. I am someone who has bought something that Kim Kardashian has promoted, too.
What have you bought? The flat tummy shakes. Yeah, and that's weird that she would do that.
Because, I mean, it doesn't work, does it? I don't know. I mean, it's a protein shake. They taste
really good. It has, from what I can tell, pretty good ingredients. Maybe not as clean as I would want,
but, I mean, still, it's a shake. A shake's a shake. You're not, it's not, you should have real
food instead. But I, I like them. I mean, yeah.
I'm sure if you replace it for two of your meals a day, forever, you'll get a flat tummy.
There's another money story that I saw.
There's a woman in Maryland who says that the lottery numbers came to her while she was sleeping.
Lunchbox see the story?
No, I'm so jealous because I try to come with lottery numbers everywhere.
I look at my credit card.
All that number should work.
Doesn't work.
What, you play your credit card numbers, your lottery numbers?
Sometimes.
I mean, I try anything.
My birthday, my wife's birthday, anything.
But nothing has worked.
The lottery hates me.
a woman in Maryland
who says that lottery numbers
came to her in a dream
has been playing those numbers
ever since she had the dream
and she won $101,000.
Like, why does that not happen to me?
Like, how?
Like, I sleep a lot
and nothing comes to me in my sleep
like, oh, some great idea.
You do sleep a lot, I know.
Once I had a song come to me
while I was sleeping.
It was when I grew up
our kid's song.
Oh.
I woke up and recorded
the chorus in my phone.
I was like, when I grow up, up, up I can be.
And then I called Eric Passley.
And then we wrote the thing.
But yeah, when I was sleeping, that happened.
I kind of get my best ideas or I just relax the most in the shower.
Do you ever feel like in the shower, Amy, that like things come to you and you have a bit of clarity in the shower?
Yeah, I mean, sometimes.
And that's like the worst place for me to get it because then I'm like wet.
I don't have my phone.
I can't.
And I have to remember.
So do you know what I do?
I take my wedding ring and I move it to the other finger, the other hand.
because that's not where it belongs and it feels so uncomfortable and weird to me that by the time I get out and get dried off and everything, I'll look down and be like, okay, my wedding ring is on my other hand.
That means I wanted to remember something that I thought about and boom, it comes to me.
That's not a bad idea.
Yeah, because it's the only thing I have in the shower, like if I don't have my phone or I can't do anything at the moment about remembering my thought, I instantly move my wedding ring.
I think a lot of people could do that to remind them something. That's good. I wish I were married. I would do that.
Wait.
Yeah.
Soon.
Soon.
Thank you.
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
So if you're over 30 years old, which is a lot of us, we need to be asking our doctor if we need to get a new booster shot.
Because the anti-vaxxers have brought the measles back.
You know, obviously measles huge concern right now.
But the vaccine was updated in 1989 after a few outbreaks.
So if you were born before 89, you only got about half the dose.
So we all need to go to the doctor.
doctor.
That's weird.
I don't like that.
What's next?
Polio?
I got to go get shot out for polio.
Well, maybe.
Listen.
Are you going to do that?
Because this is a real thing.
This is a real thing.
And it says, yes, the vaccine is really effective.
But if you were born before 89, it emphasizes that we only got half the dose, so it might
not be enough.
Well, I hope all these people that have been crying about not vaccinating their kids and not
being vaccinated and enjoying that we're going through a big measles outbreak right now.
Yeah, I mean, we should just book a group appointment and all go.
I'm in.
Ooh, like a spa day.
We get measles.
We get mumps.
We get everything shot into us.
All right, what else, Amy?
So I have some, you know, different anxiety remedies that actually work because, you know,
maybe you do really suffer from anxiety like legit or sometimes you have circumstantial anxiety.
Well, I have some tips if you're experiencing it.
This stuff might help you.
So first of all, it says make a fun play.
playlist or joke list and have those on standby to use.
And I was like, hello, morning corny.
Yeah, I don't think it's fair to say these are for sure remedies.
I know.
I'm saying if it's circumstantial, sometimes we get anxiety or we get worked up or nervous about
something, not like legit, like every day, like stuff that you have to deal with, like,
when you can't sleep.
No, but I'm going to say, even though for people to suffer for it, I don't think I'm
a single person that gets anxiety, it can read a joke list and it actually may go
better.
Okay.
Well, it could help ease some of your symptoms by distress.
you. Maybe
give your anxiety
a name and talk
to it. Like if you feel it coming on
start, you know, make it
something that you can converse with and tell it to go
away and make it like a real thing.
Take a cold shower because that can
shock your system. And then
it also just like go outside.
Get in the fresh air. If it's sunny
out, get some vitamin D and that that can
help just like naturally
calm you.
I mean all those sound novel
and cute. Right. I know, but sometimes, like, what you need is, like, I get, like, a, like, a legit
medication, possibly, or your anxiety blanket. I can tell you for me, exercise works, but I don't think
it's for everyone. I don't think there's a universal way to beat anxiety if you have it really bad.
But if I go and just do some really strenuous exercise, it does help, but I don't do that
at night when I'm going to sleep. But, yeah, that anxiety is tricky, and if you've never actually
had it, I don't think you quite understand the significance of, you know, you're not. You know,
your body not being able to slow down.
Because your heart and your neck just pounds for no reason almost whatsoever.
It's not even stress-related sometimes.
But I do have a joke.
Why did the pirate cross the road?
Okay.
So what's the answer?
Because there was an R-B's over there.
Oh, wow.
You just got that up?
I did.
I had nowhere to go with it.
Wait, you legit?
That was off the dome?
Yeah.
Well, I mean, sure.
I don't know that's a real joke.
Now it is.
Well, now it is.
I'm going to have to borrow that.
Okay, go ahead. What's next?
Love it. Okay, so sleep is like a huge thing. I mean, sleep is so important. It's more important than eating right and exercise if I had to put it in a certain order.
But a survey was put out asking people what they would do for a perfect year of sleep. And I was like, oh, what? What is wrong with these people? They must really want to sleep.
Some people said they would legit go to jail for a week if they could get one year of perfect sleep.
Well, if you promised me that there wouldn't be...
You would go to jail for a week.
Hold on.
I just feel like stuff you could experience in jail for a week would keep you up.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
Like, is it the penitentiary where I have a cellmate?
Or am I just getting locked in for a week?
Are you going to have to hold somebody's pocket?
That's what I'm saying.
Like, if it's none of that, I'll go lock myself up in jail for a week for a good year of sleep.
But yeah, if I'm in and, you know, I'm with Herbie Big Hands, I'm not trying to.
Okay.
Would you give up social media?
For how long?
You'd have to give it up for the year, but you would sleep good.
You'd have perfect sleep, but no social media.
If I had this job, I couldn't do that.
Okay.
What about give up sex for a year?
Oh, no problem.
No problem.
Nope, done.
How about five years?
Done.
Whatever.
Listen, I'm doing that and I'm still sleeping bad, so we're good.
Anyway, also, like, something to take away from this is just make sure that you're making sleep a priority in your life.
Obviously, probably not going to go to jail.
perfect sleep, but...
Much like your first story.
Easier said than done.
I agree.
I'm saying try to make it a priority.
You know you can turn off that Netflix show earlier.
You know you can schedule your day to try to make sure you're getting sleep in.
You don't have to freak out and get that nighttime workout in if what you really need to sleep.
You know, I have so many friends that have sleep issues, I start to think about...
I don't know that I know anyone that just goes to sleep and wakes up and just lives a productive sleep full night every night.
Maybe lunchbox, because he sleeps all the time.
But other than that, like people just go to sleep and just have, oh, I slept wonderfully.
What's happening today?
Birds are chirping.
It's a rare thing now.
Yeah, is that a name?
Yeah, I'm Amy.
That's my file.

It's time for the good news.
With lunchbox.
Tell me something good.
A man in California was out for a walk
when he walked by a body.
and he looks and he sees something floating in the water.
And it's a puppy who had drowned.
So he jumps in the water, grabs the puppy and performs CPR on the dog for seven minutes.
And roof-roof, dog, back to life.
Wow.
Seven minutes.
And just CPR on a dog.
Right.
All of that's crazy.
Man, that's a good one.
That's what it's all about right there.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
Folks, it's your buddy and mine.
Mr. Bobby Bowles.
Over to Amy with the morning corny.
The morning corny.
How do you catch a whole school of fish?
How do you catch a whole school of fish?
With bookworms, duh.
Bookworms. That's pretty good.
All right.
That's pretty good.
That'd be a good investigative corny.
That was a good one.
All right, there you go.
That was a good one, though.
That was the morning corny.
So you pop your neck or you get your neck popped?
Yeah, and it feels so amazing when they do it.
I tell you, when I hurt myself doing Dancing with the Stars,
they sent a guy to me when I hurt my shoulder.
And he was, he's like cracking my back and my neck.
He's a chiropractor kind of guy.
And he goes, hey, I'm going to crack your neck,
but you need to know that you can have a stroke from this.
Hmm.
And I'm like, really?
He goes, yeah, we have to say that legally.
He said it's never happened to me,
but we have to say that because there's a lot of nerves.
They know what they're doing,
but I guess your body could not be prepared for that jolt.
And so he did it, he popped.
It didn't really do much for me, but I didn't have a stroke.
Okay, well, here's the story.
This 28-year-old guy in Oklahoma suffered a stroke after popping his neck.
He said the moment he heard the pop, everything on his left side started to go numb and he couldn't walk straight.
His father-in-law rushed him to the hospital where they discovered that he popped his neck when he did it.
It ruptured his vertebral artery.
Oh, my goodness.
Which runs apparently from.
like the spine neck up into the brain.
So I'm just saying anytime you're jerking something,
something crazy could happen, especially if you're jerking like your back or your neck.
Because if one of those things don't land right, you're done.
Well, yeah.
I mean, oh, that makes me.
I mean, there are times when I'm laying there.
I won't always do the neck pop if I'm at the chiropractor,
but occasionally I just know the relief I feel from it.
And I guess before they do it, I do have a moment in my head where I'm like,
like, well, you know, this could be it.
This could be it. But I just trust them.
So then I'm like, ah, who cares? Like, I'm going to let them do it.
Like, it's fine. But now, no way. I don't think I'm ever going to be able to do it again because this is a fresh story.
I mean, give me another year, but.
Oh, yeah, you need a year to forget about this one?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, listen, he's 28 and it is in America.
And he had no medical history of anything wrong with them.
Wow.
He also, after that had really, really painful hiccups for a week where he couldn't stop hiccup again.
It was so messed up.
They would go, and it would, and it would, like, stab him.
It felt like stabbing.
Oh, gosh.
From popping his neck wrong.
Well, there you go.
There's a good morning story for you.
Stop popping that neck.
If you go to a long movie over three hours, do you think there should be an intermission?
Yes.
I think about 15 minutes would be good.
Everybody could go to the bathroom, stretch their legs, make a phone call, check their texts.
Go back into the movie, be good to go.
Well, everyone says that Avengers end game, since it's over three hours, that they don't want to miss anything and they got to pee at some point during the movie.
Yeah.
So because the movie is so big, people are starting to discuss now, should over three-hour movies have an intermission?
Lunchbox?
No, because what's going to happen is people are going to get up, they're going to go to the bathroom, then it's going to take them while to settle in, there's going to be chatter, you're going to still be on your phone when the movie starts back up.
It's going to be a big distraction.
Hey, if you can't hold your bladder, that's your problem.
Get up and go in the middle of the movie.
You know, I tend to agree with Lunchbox.
I pee before the movie starts.
Yeah.
And it's on me.
If I got a pee to get up and then get back.
If you go to a play that's three hours, you have an intermission.
But you plan ahead.
You can drink more at a play.
You know your intake levels when you're going into a movie.
Okay, it's two hours, 45 minutes, it's three hours and three and a half hours.
I can't drink this whole soda or else I'm going to have to pee, so I'm not going to drink.
But at the play, people have no problem doing the intermission, getting back to their seat and not getting back on their phone.
Well, okay.
At a play, though, people really don't have the option to get up unless they're like pooping their pants.
True.
So, just reading it, thinking about it,
60% of people say no,
but I was a bit surprised that 40% said,
yeah, that they could use an intermission.
I feel like if you're going to a movie,
you know what you're getting yourself into.
It's like going on a road trip.
Who wants to go on a road trip
with somebody 90 minutes into it?
It's got to go peevee.
Well, don't right, don't go anywhere with me.
My wife.
Yeah.
I mean, come on.
I still have not seen Avengers.
I think I'm going to get to see it on Saturday.
I'm pretty packed up until,
Saturday, but I think I'm going to be able to carve out a little time to go watch it Saturday.
I'm just avoiding spoilers like crazy, which is so hard to do because it's basically every
story on the internet now, between that and Game of Thrones, I'm just avoiding spoilers like crazy.
And for something this big, I don't think that you have to not talk about what happens
at the end of the show.
Like if it's a cultural moment, I think it's almost okay to post what happens because you
have a thought on it.
Like the Super Bowl.
The game's over to talk about it.
A big sporting event.
a finale of a show.
Those are things that I think you kind of have the right
to talk about almost immediately publicly.
Would you agree with that, Amy, or not?
Yeah, I think that's fair.
So I'm avoiding it,
but I do understand if I get caught,
then, you know what, that's on me
because I couldn't get there in time.

Woo!
Eddie, congratulations, buddy.
Thanks, bones.

You like that game or no?
Yeah.
Hey, kiss my grits.
It's hard, though, a little bit.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Tell me something good.
I saw the story on the internet.
Oh, man.
It was tough not to cry.
This woman,
Kenny Davidson, 88 years old, has lived near a high school for the past 12 years.
And every morning, she'd sit at a window and wave to the students passing by on their way to school.
Every day for 12 years.
She developed a friendship with a lot of the students and someone come visit her.
She's actually moving into an assisted living home this week.
So, last week, hundreds of students carrying signs and flowers, walked together to her home, stood on her lawn,
and then blew her a big collective kiss as she looked on from the porch.
She sat on the chair.
Yep.
Oh my gosh.
I know.
Yeah, that's good stuff.
She was pulling back to tears.
She waved back one final time.
The video's crazy.
It's so good.
It was so touching.
And you know, I saw it and wanted to share it this morning because that's what it's all about right there.
That was Tell Me Something Good.

Mr. Bobby Bones.
Let's go.
Transmitting across America.
This is the Bobby Bones show.
That's right.
Now, here you.
Turn it up.
Come, Bobby.
Today's National Foster Care Day, and Eddie, our video producer, has two kids of his own,
and he's fostered two children.
And so I guess I'm just kind of wondering what's up, Eddie.
Man, it's been going really, really well.
I feel like my wife and I are finally, we got a groove on things.
We have challenging days, but overall, it's really well.
And something happened to the day, Bones, that it was like, oh my gosh, I think, like, I am finally feeling the reward in this.
Like, we went out to eat at Cracker Barrel, and we took all the kids.
It's me and my wife, my two kids, and our two foster children.
We're all sitting there, and the server just did her job.
But at the end of the meal, she says, I just want to tell you guys, your kids are just the most well-behaved kids ever.
They did so good, and I'm impressed.
And I was like, wow, like, that is the biggest comment.
You could give me right now because I care so much about that.
I don't like bad manners.
I like our kids to be respectful.
And we've had a little bit of problems with that just in general with my kids and one of our foster kids.
And it's just like the fact that she said that, like, wow, that's thank you for the best compliment right now.
I loved it.
Have you seen the older foster kid change?
So much.
So much.
And I don't, and I, it's really just us kind of treating them.
or him the same way that I've treated my kids equally,
and now we're all just on the same page.
Because before when he got there,
it's like you have to understand that they came from a different environment,
so we don't really want to jar them with like,
whoa, I'm going to move into this house and have this kind of lifestyle now.
So it was a slow process, but now we're at the point where, oh, man, like, all right,
he is at the same level as we are,
and now we're all just kind of acting the normal way that we normally would.
Isn't it crazy that if you just give somebody a little love?
That's it.
That's what it is, Bones.
It's just a little bit of love goes a long way, and I can definitely see it in both of these kids.
And it's, yeah, it's that simple, the way you just put it.
Well, I think that's awesome.
And today's National Foster Care Day.
And actually, May is Foster Care Month.
Boom.
Wow.
So there you go.
And why did you guys foster children?
You know, my wife has worked in a child protective.
in Texas. She worked there for a few years, and she's always wanted to adopt, but I was just never at that
level with her. I wasn't really ready for that step. But we were at church one day, and they started
talking about fostering, and so a couple people came up and started telling stories about it,
and I just gave me the idea of, well, like, let's try it. We're blessed with a good home. We're blessed
with a good family. Let's give it a shot. And then here we are. We're doing it. Good for you, man.
Thank you, Bones.
The Bobby Bones Show
I was reading this story because the FDA
put out new warnings about sleeping pills
and I haven't taken a sleeping pill
in probably two years now
but I was taking them every night for a while
not a good place to be
Amy ever take a sleep pill?
I have well but they don't really work well with me
it was when my mom was in hospice
and my sister and I were not sleeping
and our doctor was like hey
you all really need to get rest during this time
it's going to get crazy so please sleep
I took a sleeping pill
it did not help me.
Like it didn't work.
It didn't work.
Like the only thing, then he moved me, that's when he moved me to Xanax.
That's the only thing that would, like, quiet my mind and give me peace and, like, sleep.
Like, a sleeping pill, I did not get good rest on it.
The FDA has put out a new warning.
Concern that these medications may cause complex sleep behaviors,
including unknowingly engaging in activities that you normally shouldn't be doing while asleep.
And in some cases, the results were fatal.
one time I took sleeping pill
and I texted this girl
and I made out with her
and then I didn't remember it the next day
fatal
well no not fatal
maybe she could have stabbed me I guess
afterward
I remember I remember
like I remember getting home and kind of remembering it
one time I went to work
came to work and I told you I drove home
put my gas tank in drove off with the gas tank
it was because I was on sleeping pills
like that stuff messes with your mind
that is not good
in a lot of cases
these patients had no clue what they were doing
while they were asleep
and someone had to tell them when they woke up.
So I got off because I did not like what it was making me.
I could feel me being wired differently in my brain.
But I have some friends still who take sleeping pills every night.
Which is crazy.
Eddie ever taken one? Lunchbox, you ever taken one?
No.
I had no need for me.
Well, let me recommend everyone not to do it.
I did it because I felt like I needed to.
I wrote in my whole first book about me trying to get off sleeping pills.
It was a struggle.
Struggle to get on, struggle to use them, struggle to get off.
But I have not touched one since.
But I saw that today.
I was like, holy cow.
Amy, do you even have any?
Sleeping pills?
Yeah.
No, I don't think so.
If I do, it's an old bottle.
I may have some of the original leftover.
Like, I'm, I tried it like two nights in a row.
I had a whole bottle.
So maybe.
Can you hook it up?
Sure.
All right, all right.
There's a podcast called Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
And she talks to a lot of wives and fiancés of country stars.
And so on this episode, which is really good, Amy, you should go listen to it.
She talks to Nicole Hawking.
Do you know who that is?
No.
It's Luke Combs's fiancé.
Now I do, yes.
Okay.
Okay, so Nicole, who's Luke's fiancee, was talking about how her and Luke met at a songwriters
festival in Florida.
Here you go.
We were leaving, like, a songwriter showcase, and he was just walking by himself on the street.
And I'm like, it's like five of us all hanging out.
And I'm like, hey, you want to come, like hang out with us?
And he was like, yeah, sure.
We started hanging out.
I was like, okay, you were an angel.
Like, you're not like every other guy that I've been seeing in Nashville.
So, just walking down the street.
I walk down the street all time.
That just not happening to you.
You're not giving off those angel vibes.
I guess not.
So Nicole says that Luke Combs is a great cook.
Here.
Did he cook for you?
Oh, yeah, he cooks.
He does?
Amazing.
What does he like to cook?
I mean, we cook tacos, like, more than the average human.
Honestly, anything.
He makes really good deer spaghetti.
Yep.
Um, really good.
This podcast is called Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
What?
Did she say deer spaghetti?
Well, yeah, it's just like using the venison.
Oh, like venison.
Okay.
Oh, deer.
Okay, got it.
Not like I'm writing a letter.
Oh, like, dear spaghetti.
I write to you today from, no, no, no.
Like, what does your husband cook?
He grills.
He's a griller.
Like, if he's contributing to the meal, it's done outside on the grill.
Like a fish or a steak or a chicken.
What do you contribute?
like everything else.
Any of the sides, any of the
like salad.
No, just generally though.
When cooking?
Yeah.
Oh, I make us all the other stuff.
Like any of the vegetables that we're going to eat.
I don't really eat a lot of the meat.
But I'll make him chicken or whatever if he can't grill.
Like in the winter months when it's like he can't go outside,
I take care of his meat.
That a girl.
Only in the winter?
Good job.
He would prefer to grill at him.
self if he could.
You know what happened with Amy on that segment, that little clip there?
Is that as soon as she said it, she was like, great.
And then she backed away from the microphone.
Yes, because, like, I said it, and then I was like, that just did not.
I know these guys, they're going to take that the wrong way.
It didn't say anything.
I've worked with y'all for too long to know that if I just try to say something that's normal.
Normal, I take care of his meat.
In the winter months.
Poor, poor guys all summer long, like, man.
It's a drought.
See?
Y'all are doing it.
It's y'all.
Anyway, I contribute a lot.
He would not get vegetables if it was not for me.
I go a bit without eating vegetables, too.
Like, I'm okay without vegetables.
I shouldn't be.
But as long as I can feel full,
I have this problem when I eat
that I have to feel so full before I'm done.
And it's such an American thing
where I'm just like,
I have to almost not be able to button my pants up.
Yeah.
And I'll even do it.
Yeah.
It's just not good.
By the way, we're talking about this new Get Real podcast with Caroline Hobby.
Here is Nicole,
who is Luke Combs' fiance, talking about how Luke proposed to her.
Cool, these are cute.
Like, that's so nice.
Thank you.
And then he's like, I also got this for you and pulls out the ring.
And I was just like, and then I blacked out.
I don't remember anything.
And he like did the whole thing, got down on one knee.
And we're in our kitchen at this point.
Apparently the first thing I said was my ears are hot.
hot. I was like, what? I didn't even say yes. Like, he's just like, and I'm like, well, yes,
but my ears are hot. Like, what's going on? What she was talking about at the first of that clip was
Lou got her a bunch of cat collars for cats and then he pulled out of ring. One other clip,
Nicole talked about how she knew Lou Combs was the one. It's just I saw the way he had treated me
and other people and I was like, my heart is yours forever, you know? I don't know if he has like
that defining moment, but just when I saw like how he treated him and his.
family and his mom. I was just like, I'm sold. Signs still delivered. I'm yours.
There you go. Amy, how did you know your husband was the one?
Um, I mean, listen, so when I was younger, this is going to be weird, but he was friends with my
sister. I always looked up to him as someone like that was older than me, my sister's friend.
Like, he would never date me kind of thing. So like I was probably way already, like, I had years
since I was like eight years old of probably being into him. And then kind of for, kind of for,
about him later in life, but I knew he could be the one.
And I just felt, honestly, he surprised me with the proposal, though.
It was kind of like when he asked me to marry him.
I was like, well, okay, this could work.
This could work?
Yes, because I was so shocked.
He proposed so early, but he said he knew.
I knew probably right when we started dating that I could marry him, but I didn't know
we were going to move that fast.
Because like I said, I knew all about him when we were younger.
Like, I was very into him in all kinds of ways.
But I just never thought, and we would ever date.
Like, I was the annoying little sister.
Like, but then I grew up.
But back then, were you into him in the summer, too, or just winter?
All months.
All months, okay.
Listen, everyone.
Here's the deal.
There is a new episode of Get Real with Caroline Hobby.
We're playing clips from that.
She's talking to Luke Combs' fiancé.
It really is a fantastic podcast.
And to listen to a podcast, basically, all you have to do,

Hi.
Joy, Amy, Amy, Joy.
Hey.
Amy was trying to do your voice.
Oh, how did it go?
Not well.
No.
Do what you were doing.
Just close.
She was like, how did she get so high?
Eyes.
Hey.
But it's like so beautiful and high and like I couldn't quite look like I was like just
grasping for hair.
That's what I call the butt squeeze moment.
Oh.
Oh, is that the trick?
Yeah, it's partly.
Okay.
Try it with the butt squeeze.
Yeah.
Just close your eyes.
See?
A little higher.
You get there a little bit.
Joy, how are you?
I'm all right.
It's good to see you.
I've seen you since the podcast.
Yeah, Joy came over and we did a Bobbycast.
And yeah, that was really good.
I felt like we became long while's friends after that.
I know.
I've missed you.
I come bearing vinyl
By the way the record came out Friday
So check it out
It's called Front Porch
And that is actually one of my favorite songs on the record
Video is so good
Oh thank you
Let's start
Let's start where
Because I think Amy's new to this
Amy learned when you were in the Civil Wars
With this song I think which a lot of America did
Which is safe and sound
Because we were big hunger to games fans
Yeah we like read all the books
Dude I was the same
Oh did you read the books?
Oh all of all
of them. Like, I went on a vacation and read
like two of them. I didn't really
say hi to anybody on that vacation, but it was a great read.
But did you do it because you were doing a song for the movie?
No. That was just like a super
total fluke that was happening. I mean,
we were in L.A., the Civil Wars. We had a show at the
Wiltern, and Taylor and I'd been texting
that day. Taylor Swift, by the way, she's so cool. She calls Taylor
just by a name. Yeah. Well,
T. It was T. Miles, my son calls her Auntie T-Tay.
But yeah, I mean, we were just texting and she said, hey, wait, are you in L.A.?
I'm in L.A. And I've got to work on this. Do you want to do this with? And so we literally wrote that song with T. Bone at his studio in under three, wrote it and recorded it in under three hours because we had to get back to sound check for a show. So it all happened very much into serendipitous way.
And then it was the song. And then it was a song.
Then it was the song.
Yes.
What's like writing with Taylor?
Really easy
She's such a great writer
As we all know
And you know
When you're writing with friends
I mean it's just like
It's just like
Sitting down to dinner with
You know a good pal
You know
It doesn't feel like a first date
Like you're just able to talk about life
And the lyrics can come really easily
And then we've got like
T-bone Burnett playing guitar
That doesn't suck
So
And how did you and Taylor Swift become friends
Oh man
Just in town?
Yeah just in town through the music
I mean it's amazing how music
Can make friends
And that's kind of what happened with us, too.
It just slowly over time, she got to know what kind of music I was making in Civil Wars.
And we, I don't know, we just became fast friends at that point.
Can I ask you guys to play like a verse and a chorus of that, save and sound?
Yeah.
Do you guys know that one?
Yeah.
You still play that?
Yes.
I don't know, Joy.
Well, I just had a scoge of a feeling that you might have asked for this.
Well, you know, you never know.
Well, we're on the same wavelength.
Joy Williams is here.
By the way, her album is out today called Front Porch.
She came out on Friday.
and so we'll go back before we play something new
and play a little safe and sound here.
Hey guys, so because of licensing roles,
we can't play anything with music
on this Iheart radio channel or podcast anymore,
but you can go to bobbybones.com to see it.
We hate that we had to take it down.
It wasn't our decision,
but I just wanted to keep you up
and we wanted to keep up as much as possible.
So go to bobbybones.com to watch or hear
whatever you're missing right now,
and thank you for listening to the show,
and sorry about all the legal stuff.
How good is that?
Come on.
So good.
That's awesome.
Look at that.
Joy Williams is here.
Her record came out on Friday, and I'm a massive fan.
So much so that I don't want to get two in the weeds.
But the rumor was that you learned to sing from birds.
I love that this is the story.
And I don't want to dispel the myth because I really like that.
But it's a little bit more like my mom outside.
And that was kind of my, we didn't have a lot of money where I grew up.
I was born in Michigan.
And we lived out in the woods.
We didn't have a whole lot, so we would go out and take these nature walks.
And my mom, who also sang, taught me how to just, she called it active listening.
And so I learned how to harmonize from my mom and the birds.
And the birds.
And the birds.
And said birds.
So, like, bird, perfect.
Oh, I don't know about perfect, but I'll pay you later, Bobby.
It's like, what's the guy's name, Dr. Doolittle?
You're like Dr. Doolittle of singers?
Yes.
I'm going to make a business card and put that on there.
Joy Williams is here, Records out.
This is called Be With You.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
Thank you.
Tell me about this one.
Oh, man.
It sounds to me like a song where you sing a church.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah.
When I was listening to a lot of Patsy Klein at the time,
and I just thought, man, it'd be really fun to take my own spin
on what it's like to write something that kind of sways like this.
And then, you know, relationships have ups and downs.
And it's that moment of like, you know,
even though we're in a tough spot, I really want,
I really want to, we're going to lean in.
We're going to make this work, and I believe in us.
And so that's what the song's about.
You also have a song called Preacher's Daughter, which you were a minister's daughter.
Yes.
What was that like doing music?
Because I know for a long time you were a Christian artist.
You want a lot of awards, a lot of Dove Awards.
I got nominated.
I was once a Bridesmaid Never Brides.
Oh, really?
That's the right award, right?
Dove Awards?
Yeah, you're right.
You're right.
Never won, never won, never won, though, got nominated a lot.
But you didn't want a double war, but you won three Grammys?
What were they?
How much did they mess out on that?
Well, I don't, you know, I like the Grammys.
They make really good bookends, and I'm really proud of them.
But being a preacher's daughter, it was, you know, it had its ups and downs.
But, you know, my dad passed away from cancer, and I remember wanting to write a song about him,
and I just couldn't for a couple years.
And then finally one day it was like one total download in like three hours.
I had three pages of lyrics.
And then brought it to the most amazing writer Liz Rose.
and Natalie Hemby as well
and finally was able to write a song
about my dad and me.
Wow.
You know, on your Instagram,
you had asked a question
and you said,
hey, what song reminds you of home?
Yeah, do you have one?
Yeah, I actually do.
You know, as you know, I'm a super fan.
And what is yours, by the way?
I was thinking about this,
and I think that I would have to say
because I grew up in,
I ended up moving out to Northern California
and my dad being also a preacher's son,
we were not really allowed to listen to
a lot of music and he wasn't either, but his big rebellion was the Beach Boys. So God
Only Knows by the Beach Boys always actually reminds me of home.
Yeah.
That's awesome. Amy, what about you? What song reminds you of home?
I have to go George Strait Amarillo by morning.
Because? I mean, anything George Strait really reminds me of home and childhood.
That's awesome.
This is, and this is having to be my favorite one. Like, repeat when we were kids.
And is this your favorite song from George Strait?
Yes, he was down.
I was thinking about mine.
Yeah, what's yours?
Well, it's just like what reminds me of home.
Probably Colin Ray Little Rock, because this is right when I was a kid,
this 90s country, and also the fact that we in Arkansas got mentioned in the song was so cool to us.
It's just...
It didn't matter what it's about.
It didn't matter he's struggling in Little Rock.
But the shoutout.
The shoutout.
And Little Rock got two shoutouts in two different songs.
Reba and Colin Ray.
Little Rock.
And both of them.
That's a big deal to us.
It is.
So I'd listen to Kiss the 96 and Colin Rui would come on and we'd be,
everybody in the state would be like, that's my time.
He's talking about us.
He's talking about us.
Yeah, that one reminds me at home.
I don't know why I held it all inside.
Do you guys want to play another song?
Will you play a full song?
Yeah.
Can I request any song that I want?
Yes, you may.
We're trained professionals here.
Okay.
By the way, Joy Williams is here.
Her record came out on Friday.
This is the first week it's been out.
So this is like when all the sales and streams.
Like this is what you, this is the big.
week. This is the big launch week. This is the big launch week. It's the big week. I like this song called
When Does a Heart Move On. Oh, that's a sad one. I know. I am so drawn. He loves. I know.
When I said I come bearing vinyl, I didn't even mean mine even though I did. But like this one,
I got you because we talked last time on the podcast. That's not you? No, I got you a little gift
because you and I both were like, we love the boo hooey. Can I open it now? Yeah, go for it.
Are you sure? Yeah. I'm always weird of people opening gifts in front of me because I'm like,
there's that vulnerable moment where you have to. What if you hate it? I know. I know. I'm going to do
the worst fake face ever. What if you hate it? Let's see.
I secretly hope you might. No, I don't.
I think you're going to like it. Yes. I thought you might. Yeah, it's R. I'm automatic for the
people. That's right. You know what's on this, Eddie?
Yes. It's, um, everybody hurts. Yes. Yeah, of course. You named it.
Track four. That was what, we talked about that on the podcast. That's probably the song I've
listened to the most period in my life with streaming, because that's just my song.
I know, like you, this is where you and I have like a little golden thread between us because
I have, it's the same thing. It's, I put it on them like, someone gets me. I really.
appreciate that. You're welcome.
And Man on the Moon is one of my favorite songs of all time too.
So good. So good.
Yeah. Have you seen Man on the Moon, first of all, with Jim Carrey being Andy Kaufman?
Yes.
Have you seen the Netflix special where Jim Carrey does a documentary about his time being Andy Kaufman?
Where he kind of almost lost his marbles. Yes.
It's so good.
It is. It is.
Jim Carrey's, man, I can't even imagine go into the depths that he went to for that character.
He's probably in the depth. He probably lives in the depths.
Like you have to kind of be crazy to create.
crazy?
I suppose so.
But, you know, pot calling kettle.
So, you know, it must take a little crazy for me to notice the crazy in him.
Joy Williams is here.
And I want to hear this song because.
Well, there's a heart move.
Oh, it's so sad.
It makes me, it's, I love sad music.
Are we going to cry?
You might.
Me, I've made me happy.
I'm a dance.
I'm going to get up and do the jive.
Sad songs bring him to life.
I love.
And you're over here like, where's the Kleenex?
I need the click.
Did I wear waterproof mascara today?
Fly preacher's daughter, Oliver.
I cry every time at the bridge.
Like, it does not matter.
Like any show I do, I get choked up.
And it's, so yes, I hear you on that.
Well, it's super special.
Well, thank you.
I want to come back to that point, because I don't want to interrupt this flow,
but I want about you crying at the same point of a song.
Because Elvis used to do that.
Yeah, but it wasn't rehearsed for him.
It's like, I can't help it.
It wasn't rehearsed.
He couldn't help it.
They did a whole scientific.
There's a podcast with the guy who wrote Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell,
where he gets Jack White on it and he goes,
hey, you try it too.
And they couldn't get through the song.
It kept bringing up a memory with Elvis every single time.
Whoa.
And they never found an audio recording of him
ever able to complete the song without like breaking up,
either laughing or crying ever.
Whoa.
Because something triggered every single time.
Yeah.
That's preacher's daughter is that way.
And now, I mean, so is when does the heart move on too.
Oh, and of course I requested it.
Great.
Yeah, I know.
I'm like, no, we'll get through it.
We'll get through it.
And this one's, this one, I loved writing this one.
It was a heartache to write it, but it felt, I think that's the thing.
When you get to sit down and write a song, what a gift it is, you know,
and you get to sit down with other people and talk about real life experiences.
And that's like the only way that I know how to write is if I feel like it's true to me
or has been true to me at a different point in time.
So I can hopefully be true for other people.
So this one's out, when does the heart move on?
All right, Joy Williams is here.
All right, whenever you guys are ready.
Come on.
Tell me she wasn't trained by birds.
I won't believe you.
I won't believe you.
Joy Williams, trained by birds.
Joy Williams is here.
And the record is out now,
which is called Front Porch,
and you are, you're a treat.
Thank you.
You're a real treat.
Thank you, sir.
It's good to see you, my friend.
And I'm so glad we finally got to him.
Oh, yeah.
And I have Joy tattooed on my wrist.
You do?
Yeah.
What's the story?
I told her we met, and she did that.
Yeah, I knew you were coming in,
and I was like,
that is super fan status.
I just, you know,
My mom, when she was battling cancer, her motto was choose joy.
So my sister and I had Joy and her mom's handwriting tattooed on her wrist.
So it was a constant reminder to choose Joy.
That's going to make me cry because that's what my dad said to and he was battling cancer too.
Yeah.
That's amazing.
Well, I'm sure similarly they knew where their joy came from.
Yeah.
They were just very intentional about making sure.
Yeah.
It's amazing.
I love that you have that on your wrist.
You can follow Joy at Joy underscore Williams.
Two underscores, by the way.
Yes, yes.
What?
Joy underscore was already taken?
It was.
Joy, it's kind of, it's, you know, there's a few of us.
Two underscores.
Joy, two underscores Williams.
Yes.
Oh, okay.
Well, I'm so glad that you have new music because I'm a massive fan.
Thank you.
I think the first time we ever talked was when I was on Dancing with the Stars.
That's right.
Total DM.
I was like, how's it going, waiting for hours in your trailer?
I know how that goes.
It's the hurry up and wait.
It is.
And then you dance.
Yes, you do.
And you did.
You came and you conquered.
Yep.
And I would listen.
You know what I'd listen to?
I told you this.
And I haven't thought about this since last time we talked.
I would listen to your record.
Which song would I listen to?
This.
This was out.
This is one of the first tracks.
I would listen to this laying in my trailer, getting pumped up.
Like, I would listen to, like, sabotage by the Beastie Boys to get, like, amped.
But I love that you listen to The Trouble With One.
Yeah, and that's what it was.
I was like, I posted the song and tagged you.
Yes.
And you hit me back, and I was like, oh, I'm just getting pumped up with my dance tonight.
That's what it was.
Things I've never heard of one.
Well, Joy, good to see you.
You too.
Thanks for having me on.
Check out the record and I will take my vinyl home and play everybody hurts now on another device.
Yes, you will.
All right.
Thank you, Joy.
These thieves stole a 700-pound Pepsi vending machine.
I wonder what you do with that.
You can't take it to a pawn shop, right?
No.
I mean, well, I think people might wonder.
It'd be really easy to track you down.
Washington's Pro Performance Loop Center in Spokane Valley had some
surveillance footage and two guys tipped
the 700 pound machine over
laid into the
backup truck then grab the bottom of it and pushed it
up and then drove it away
and they found it but it was destroyed
and maybe they were just doing it to beat it up
yeah it was just like fun
for them
like is that something you guys would have done lunchboxes of kids
yeah that would have been kind of fun if you could get
a vending machine I don't know if I'd beat it up
but just to put it in your house would be
awesome to be able to say hey you want a Pepsi
put in 50 cents well I guess our dollar
now.
That's back in the day.
Sorry, guys.
I'm old.
And that would be so cool.
Like, we stole, like, Taco Cabana is a restaurant in Texas.
And we stole one of the tables because they always had beer labels on them.
We stole one of those in college because we wanted one.
How?
Drive up to the patio, pick it up, stick in the back of the truck, and go.
I mean, it's pretty easy.
Oh.
Yeah, I figure that'd be a story right-up lunchboxes alley.
Let's go.
What's going on today, Amy?
Well, I got some podcast stuff to do today.
and I have a new, speaking of today, I have a new Q&A episode that's up.
So if people want to answer, just that'll be there.
And then just hanging out with the kids today.
And maybe find a Mother's Day gift for my mother-in-law because I've got to put that in the mail like today so she'll get it in time.
Yeah, that's a thing.
Yeah, it's a thing.
A Mother's Day gift for your mother-in-law.
Yes.
I have a podcast meeting today, speaking of that, with Kelly from Velvet's Edge.
She also has a good podcast.
I'm going to go through that with her.
Are we talking with Jay from Rascal Flats?
I think possibly, well, it's on my calendar for today.
But at some point, Jay DeMarcus, he wrote a book and he's promoting his book.
And do you see the story in me where he said he gave up a baby for adoption?
No, I didn't know that.
Yeah, and I think he just revealed it in his book.
Those books will get you, man.
When I did my first book, I was revealing all kinds of stuff.
But maybe I have a podcast with him.
I'm going to have a dinner tonight about a project that I have come
up. But it's a pretty busy day. I got back into town.
You know, I think today I'll just work a lot, you know?
Yeah, why not? I'll switch it up. Why not? Yeah.
Lunchbox is going on?
Man, I got to do some laundry. I got a lot of dirty clothes from traveling, so I got to wash my
clothes. I need some underwear. I've been wearing them inside out. So I got to do that,
take a nap. And, you know, maybe try to catch up on my shows. I haven't seen Survivor from
last week or the challenge. So, I mean, I need to get caught up.
I was with someone lunchboxes thinking about you because she loved.
the challenge. See, she's a smart woman.
And she was like, I've seen every season.
There have been 700 seasons.
She's like, and I'll watch it until I die.
And I was like, yeah, you sound like lunchbox.
And so she works in media and I asked her if she knew Johnny Bananas.
Yep.
And she was like, I've interviewed him a couple times. He's a nice guy.
See?
China Bananas is a good dude.
I'm telling you.
She was like, he was one of the first guys to actually use reality television as a career.
And he kind of knows that it's a joke and just plays along with it.
Oh, he's like a trailblazer.
Lunchbox
He's so like your goals in life
He is a trip I'm telling you guys
He did
He said this is my
Like I can use this and make money
The rest of my life
And never have a real job
And he's doing a great job of it
And he is amazing at it
There you go
Lunchbox loves this guy
Like I think it would be his first dude kiss
If Johnny Baines would be out for it
Yeah
Would you dude kiss him
Like what you mean on the cheek
No on the mouth
Oh I'd have to think about it
You kiss your dad on the mouth
Yeah like all the time
Yeah I do kiss my dad on the mouth
But that's my dad
Who's hotter, Johnny Bananas or your dad?
I have no idea.
Okay.
Fair questions.
You guys tell me, you guys are the one that always tell me dudes are hot.
We're going to go.
I mean, Johnny Bananas is good looking, for sure.
I never even knew he was until the other day.
And let me say, your dad's nothing to, you know, hit a stick on, you know?
What does that mean?
He's not bad looking.
No idea.
I just make things up sometimes.
I just say words.
Okay.
All right. We're going to go. See you guys on Wednesday. Have a great day. Bye, everybody.
