Oh, yeah. I can get a lot of sleep, and you come in.

You got that adrenaline flowing, and about what's in? You're like, uh, that's right. Yeah. You're not as conditioned. We've got to, like, work it out. I just got to get that sleep schedule back to normal. I was trying this story about a,

it's a high school, like a pee-wee game, football game. I hope I'm getting these details right. Who sent the story in? You went from high school to pee-wee football, so. Okay, it's a pee-wee game. Okay. I may I just read it online, and the coach ended up getting shot?

That's terrible. Because of a parent, a parent got mad. Oh my gosh. What happened was these two kids, chill out. The two kids were fighting pee-wee players. And they were like, the parent was like, let them fight. And the coach stepped in and was like, no. And pulled them apart.

And the parents said, like, talked to you in the bleachers. And they went to the bleach and he shot him in the leg twice. What? It's normal. Oh, yeah. I'm sure, right? Oh, do you have it? Yeah, coach shot in the leg.

How right was that with my details? I just kind of freestyle it there. Was it pee or high school? It was a youth football league jamboree, and the 42-year-old coach became involved in an altercation with the man after breaking up a fight between players from his team and the opposing squad. The man asked the coach to meet him under the bleachers. When he did, the man pulled a gun on him and fired, hitting him twice in the leg. You nailed the bones. Whoa!

It's a crazy story, though, huh? But the gunman is on the loose. They didn't catch him. That was when I saw the story, too. I don't know if it's still out. And is it really a gunman? Not really the parent. I mean, is a crazy dad with the gun carrier.

Yeah. The gun dad. They said the suspect is in his mid-30s with tattoos on his cheek and forehead. Cheek and forehead tats. So they should be able to find him. Yeah, I don't think I go anywhere alone with some of my cheek and forehead tats, period. Aside from any of this. Definitely not behind the bleachers?

No, no. Okay. No. Sir, would you like to join me? Is that a forehead tattoo? I would not. Can we just talk here? In the safety of all these people.

You find out it's Post Malone who shot the dude? Oh, man. There we go. Or 69 or dude. No, that dude's going to probably go to jail. Why? Mike, do you know this? Didn't he, like, touch a kid or something?

What? Oh, my goodness. Yeah, he's been in trouble. For that? There's been protests for a long time. Mike, what do you know about 69? It was like a long time ago. I think he already got cleared of it, though.

I saw yesterday, Google this. Is it back? I saw yesterday he may go to jail for it. How do you Google? How do you Google this? Be careful on that. Google what is 69 in trouble? There's so many things you can't Google.

I'm out. A musical. Here we go. Here we go. Jail for posting video of girl 13 performing. Oh my gosh. Got it.

Okay. So how, yeah. Okay. So this is for real. She's 13, but this is not an excuse. He should know how old someone is. But how old is he and then does he ask the age of these girls? But I know that he was going to do a concert in San Antonio like a month ago or two months ago.

and people said to the club, they said, do not let him come. There's going to be problems if you, like gang members were saying they were going to show up. Oh, is that why? Yes. Oh, I thought it was just he was another gang. No, they were saying,

we will take care of this. He doesn't represent, don't ask me how I know this, probably was like I went through his entire Instagram one day for some reason, but he oftentimes is wearing, I can't remember, either a blue one or a red bandana, but don't worry, he doesn't identify with any particular gang. So don't think if you see him wearing a particular color, that means anything.

Well, we, like I said, we're all back. Everybody's here, which is nice. Lunchbox came in a little late today. But you're back, huh? Yeah, I'll be coming in late every day. That's not true. Hey, man, I've got a kid now. You said it sleeps all the time now. You should have said it's awful. I've had a kid for a long time. And how long it'd it take Eddie to get until he was on time when they were 10 or 11 years old?

Hey, he made me honest on them bones. No, you're still late. No, I haven't been late in the year. That's not true. Not a year. When? When is the last time? I don't know.

Can't remember, can you? So long ago. You shouldn't get rewarded for not doing bad things. Well, but I've been late my whole life. So I feel like I should reward. We're dealing with that right now with our kids because they're expecting rewards or an award or something. Every time they do. They're like, oh, but I took my clothes upstairs.

Can I have a skittal? I'm like, what? For living life? For doing what you're supposed to do? No. You're not, no, no, no, no. So you just give your kids one skittal at a time? Wow.

What is wrong with you. First of all, they didn't get this. What a terrible parent you are, Amy. First of all, they didn't get the skittal for like just. Can I just, can I have one lick of one skittal? Can I get that one lick? No. No lick for you.

Yeah, I know. Sugar, listen, I'm battling that sugar game hard and my kids, they're not giving in. They kept asking me, we were on vacation. They kept asking me for a Fanta, which is a Coke, by the way. And that's not. I have not, they've been home now for almost eight months and I've not given them a single soft drink. Now they have had it at school. Don't get me started.

But they're not going to get that stuff for me. And yeah, one skittal. Geez. Yeah. Sugar is for real. Oh, I know. And I don't want to. If you're going to give them anything, just give them the bag.

We don't give me anything. One of the two. Sometimes, yes, they can have more than one skittal. Don't, you're exaggerating. You said a skittl. They asked for a skittles. They asked for a skittal. Y'all.

What's wrong with you? Because they need other things other than sugar. Amy went to Colorado. I did. Lunchbox dadded it. Yeah, I didn't do anything. Eddie. I went to Florida, man.

I went to Naples. You drove all the way down? Oh, gosh. It was supposed to be a 12-hour drive down, but the traffic through Atlanta was about two hours in traffic. Did you navigate, like, to the time of travel? Did you think, oh, we're going through Atlanta during traffic time? No, it was a Saturday, so it didn't matter when I was. was going through Atlanta.

I thought you hit that 5 o'clock. And how much did Kia pay you to? No, I didn't get paid by Kia. Exactly. That was my rent-a-car. He was sure like Kia Soul, Kia Soul. Look at me in my Kia. He's like, I mean, and then he did a swipe-right photo of the Kia.

The point of that was to show how small my car was. Whatever. I thought, wow, you know, Bobby did Meta Musil, maybe Eddie got Kia. I don't know. Buzz, you're acting like you wouldn't know if I was getting money from a Kia. Oh, I don't. Yeah, we didn't know. We wouldn't know if you work for side deal.

Can't work those side deals? We get busted. Influencer deal? I'm saying. I had to go through the company like four times to be able to do one. Yeah? Which one? Meta Musil.

Oh, yeah. No, I didn't go through Keith. I didn't get anything from here. Yet. Oh, yeah, maybe. If they're interested, they can bite. Yeah, true. Well, let's see.

Anything else I want to say? We're all back. Oh, I know what. What? Tonight, don't forget to go to Paradise. What? Bachelor in Paradise. is back tonight again.

Is it? Such a good show. You're going to watch that with your baby? Oh, I do. My kid watches it. Baby Boxes all up on there. It's like, oh, it's good. I mean, it's just people falling in love on the beach.

That's all? Yeah, I figure he's going to like the same TV that the wife and I like. Who laws is any good to be on there that we know? Like the, like, that we know, no. Like Wells? Yeah, he's the bartender. Again? Yeah.

Oh, how does he get off work from the radio? I don't understand. I don't know what he does. I don't know how he, I don't know. I don't think he does a long form show. I think he does a music show. Oh, okay. So you're going, right?

Lay down some tracks and be like, hey, who is. Yeah, but they must love him. Milky Chance. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think he's pretty popular amongst that group. He's not trying to get chicked. He's dating a girl. Yeah, he's dating.

Who's his girlfriend? She's. Sarah Highland? The girl from modern family. Oh, okay. But she's an adult now. Right? Well, she's always been an adult.

I know. Not always. No, because I used to watch Modern Family way back and she was littler. I haven't seen that guy. He's a nice guy. He is a nice guy. He really is. And you would think he's like super cool.

You would think maybe you wouldn't be. Like, especially after all this. And because he's good looking. And I'm like some all good-looking people suck. Yeah. And he does like that kind of music. And he's kind of cool. Oh, yeah.

And he has a cool truck. Yeah. But he's not. He's really nice. Yeah, oddly. I kind of want to not like him. But I can't help him. You can't help you.

I know. Yeah. I meet a few times. I was like, oh, this guy, oh, man, you're cool, huh? Dang it, you're really nice. Oh, man. He's so nice. That sucks.

You're a good dude. Come on. So, I mean, I think he could end up, I don't know what that's happening over there, but I think he could end up being like a guy that hosts a spinoff of a show like that. Because he's already in broadcast. He's heavily into that culture, that Bachelor culture. He's likable. And he's just been on so many seasons.

I think he's like someone that could go, hey, we're going to do Bachelor. in Tupelo and it's all people, you know, something, aside another show. And we're not to what you're saying. And Chris Harrison, you know, maybe he doesn't want to do it anymore. Sure. Yes, he's been doing it for a long time.

It's had a lot of really dramatic rose ceremonies. Oh, yeah, the season finale was the most emotional one we've ever seen, according to Chris Harrison. I was reading about the six people that were looking up for the next Bachelor. I think they're kind of speculating. But if I, listen, I'm not saying anything.

Oh, I know who the next one's going to be. No, you don't. I do. Because I can tell you I got reached out to. And if they're reaching out to me about things, they haven't fully committed. Wait, Amy, you know? I feel like I was told by someone, but I don't know. You better write it down.

Maybe I don't know. Is it Ben Higgins? Nope. Oh, they're going back to Ben? I don't know who that is. But I didn't even know you were a contender. I'm not a contender. I just was asked if I would be open to the option, and I am not.

Wow. Ben Higgins was already engaged on that. He's been on twice for two different things. The only reason I know that stuff is I talk to people. Okay, okay. So go ahead. I want to hear more. He must be from Chicago.

Is he from Chicago? Ben Higgins? Yeah. I don't know where he's from. I'm not sure. Didn't we see him and I heard that's him? I'm pretty sure it's Denver. Colorado is where he lives.

Is he? Is he? Is he? Is he from his mouthwash for? I think so. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

What do you mean, Amy? Indiana. Indiana. So he's a Cubs fan. Okay, yes. Yeah, that's why. Yeah. Okay.

Remember when we were in Las Vegas and I was on my way from my room to Bobby's room to change. And I had, wait for it. acne cream on my face that I didn't know about What are you going to do? Hook up? No, but I mean, I'm on the elevator

going up to Bobby's room to get ready. It was like I had granny panties on. No, but I did have spot treatment on my face and then I was gargling mouthwash on my way to Bobby's room and planned on spitting it out when I got there. But on the elevator, I ran into this dude and I was like, I got to say hi.

So I swallowed it. You swallowed the mouthwash? Yeah. And then I talked to him. And then I got... She was wasted, right? Then she's making out with him. And then I got to Bobby's room, and I looked in the mirror, and I was like, and I have pimple cream on my face.

And the whole thing was awful. And Ben Higgins remembers that to this day. He still tells me about it. He tells everyone he sees it. Well, the problem is, I'm thinking it was, it was one of the Bachelor dudes. Pretty sure, like 99% sure it was Ben Higgins. It was, for sure it was. Okay.

I don't know who some of them are. There's a guy from a supermarket or something they were considered ever. Oh, yeah. He's from Chicago, Joe. Supermarket Joe. Here's the crazy story about Supermarket Joe. I don't know who these people are by the way either He was just on this season of The Bachelorette, right?

With Becca And he went home the first night You saw him get out of the cab Or whatever limo Talk to her And then at the end of the night getting cut That was it And he got a social media following from that

People loved him And so now he's like a big star Another one that was mentioned to me was There's some guy named Juan Pablo No They're not bringing Juan Paul That's the old one Let me write down who I think it is.

Is Juan Pablo split though? I don't know. I don't know. Single? Again, I don't, I wish I knew these people. He wasn't with the accent. I'm not too cool to know this. It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay. It's okay. This is who I heard it is. Let's see. Let me see. From a reliable source. How long ago though? Did you hear that?

Maybe like. Is he a country star? But do. Girly spot? No, no. I wrote it on that. Roll it. Flip it.

Close it. Oh, you could be. That's one of them I heard. Yeah. I won't say his name. Let's see. Don't say it. I'm not going to say it from Tanya.

Yeah. Yeah. You got to turn it. You can't see it. You can't read. That's all right. Anyway, my whole point with that was. That someone reached out to you.

And so why don't you do it? Because it's way too much commitment in signing over your life. And I just am not. And you don't drink. At this point, though, I don't need the Bachelor. Yeah. To find a girl?

No, to make it. Because most people just get on that show to make it. Oh. Yeah. A career. It's not about the relationship. They're seeking? No.

Okay. I don't need The Bachelor to do that. I would have five years ago, but now I wouldn't do that. Yeah, that's it. Good. Cool. Anything else? How about those guys make out with every girl on the show?

It's pretty crazy. Dude, I'm such a germophobe. That's just not cool. Me gross. And Bobby doesn't want to get in hot tubs and take a shirt off, although you could. You would do that, right, Bob? You could have just said hot tubs. That's why I added that, I said.

He goes in with his fully closed. Sorry, I feel more comfortable this way. Oh my goodness I was saying that for you I'd rather not I was saying that for you and jeans not even shorts

why don't you take your shirt up I'd rather not I just feel comfortable with a shirt on thanks I said you could yeah I hope everyone has a great day

But that's it. I got a couple. Do you know what I'm doing? Do I tell you I'm doing this? Hmm. I don't. No more writing down. That is.

I mean, I know how I'm doing this? I mean, I know a couple of things, but I don't know for sure. You probably know this. Maybe. What are you writing? It's a paragraph. Oh, I didn't. What?

I didn't tell me that. When did that happen? Shut up. When? Where? Can I go? He's having a baby? No.

Wait, you didn't tell me that. When did that happen over the break? Kind of. Can I go? Who knows the thing? You're getting married. It's a wedding. The only that Morgan number two knows because if it was going to be announced while I was gone,

I had to send her. Because I didn't get to watch. the IHard Country special because I was locked up in therapy camp. Okay. There's no phones, no TVs. And so Morgan number two posted my tweets for me. Oh, that makes sense. I was like, Megdi?

Well, Morgan, too. Okay. And so I also sent her another one and said, if this is announced, this is what you write, so she knows. Can I go? Can I go? Right, that's all I was thinking. What do you think about that, Morgan number two? It is awesome.

and can Amy go? Wait, can I just a guess what's controversial? Just the idea of it. Because? Kind of and not really. You want to know what the most annoying thing is when you guys do this? I know. Just so you know, the most annoying thing, hands down, is this.

Yeah. Like, people think I'm annoying. This is more annoying. This is way more annoying. Here's what I've done, though, because I had a friend tell me that don't like it when I do this on the ear. So I'm doing it on the air anymore. It's on the post show, pre-show, and I write notes.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, they do years. Oh, yeah. Sometimes 14, 15 months. That's brutal. Yeah. Well, that's a good call to start with, huh? We're back.

Yeah. Get that? Wow. Who? What is it good for? The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Story. It's producer Raimundo in Detroit, Michigan.

It's been reported that Aretha Franklin is very sick. The Queen of Soul is in the hospital and is surrounded by her family. She's 76 years old. In Recall News, Hostess has recalled that cookies and cream brownies. They didn't list eggs as an ingredient. As long as you're cool with eggs, go ahead and eat them. And finally, in sports, Brooks Keppka beat Tiger Woods to win the PGA Championship golf tournament. That's the closest tiger has come to winning a major in 10 years.

It's a Bobby Bones show. You and your husband get into a fight? Yeah, okay. So I asked him to heat something up that happened to be in a glass jar in the fridge. And he grabbed it and I guess started, you know, heating it up. But I was in the bathroom, like getting ready. And I walk out and I see the glass jar sitting on top of the stove with the flame, like burning. Like, he just got the jar out of the fridge, lit on and everything.

Set the jar right at the top of the stove and turn the flame on. And I'm like, what? What? Eddie, maybe it's a guy thing. Like, I don't want to be sexist here. But, like, Eddie, do you know why that's probably not a smart idea? No, it's a glass on a flame. He just heat it up. He was in the military.

He knows it's fine. That's exactly. Okay. Then I'm like, okay. Why not, though? Because it could break. It'll pop. And then everything inside will go all over our stove.

And like, no, it could pop the glass like that and go, poof. You know, like, just not smart. And that's, so the not smartness, I was like, you know, you fly airplanes. Oh, you said that to him. Like you're smart and otherwise, how can you be so dumb now? Basically.

Wow. It's not my proudest moment, but that is what came to my mind because I couldn't believe that he thought that that was a good idea. And then he fired back with, well, if we had a microwave. Oh, dang.

And I was like, okay, solid comeback, really valid. Still like getting a microwave, but, you know, That's kind of what went down. But I mean, I was like blown away that he's like so smart yet could be so dumb. He's a dude. That's what we do.

Phones, don't you think that he did it just to prove his microwave? No, he said nothing to do with the microwave because I said, you fly airplanes. Like, I don't even know how to. I felt low after I said it. And I apologize. I even, I will 100% admit that I took it too far with that comment. But then he was quick and came right back with the well. Why don't you get a microwave?

for him. You just not use it. You let your kids eat candy. You don't eat candy. They get candy every once while. Everyone's wine. They let him use a microwave every once while. You don't have to use it. I just feel like I'll find it tempting. I mean, I'm human too. Oh yeah. Exactly. I'll be like, okay, fine. I'll just put the food in the

microwave and zap nutrients. I know what I'm getting you for Christmas. Stay to the up. That's so mean. We've been gone for a few days, but we are back. Ramundo, who sits in the glass room, and what he does is he edits audio all day. I cut commercials, all the things that you hear on the show, all the clips of songs. Like, that's what he does.

He's cutting, cutting, cutting. And so he comes to me and he says, hey, you know what the listeners want? I said, no, what do the listeners want? Usually what they call for and what they're asking, they say, more talk, less music. Okay. And so what do you then propose? The thing that came to me was, why don't we speed up the songs? It's logical.

So have you sped up some songs to hear? Yeah, I have some examples how it would sound in the morning when you're listening to these songs sped up. So that means if the song was sped up, there's more time for us to be able to talk. Yeah, you're going to have 30 seconds to a minute more every segment to talk, explain about your life, and have fun on the air. Okay, so what is the first song I have up here is, I was Jack, you were Diane. Okay, so this is a song if you're not familiar with it. Now, if we're doing the show, you'd rather it sound like... It makes me want to talk faster.

How much time does that shave off? Well, that one right there in particular is going to shave off 20 seconds for the whole song. Then I've sped up others even faster, so it's going to give you probably two minutes more a segment. Oh, wow. Okay, so. Come in. You know this song from Keith Urban? Okay, Reyes sped this one up here.

How much time does it shave off? People are going to be driving your work in such a hurry. The speeding tickets are just flying up. Not to mention, Keith Urban, mine. not like that. But even like, yeah, I mean, think of how much more content we could cover if we all just bit up our talking. That's true, too.

No, she's doing that. There's a group more. We can talk about more. Can it Chesney get along? Speed this one up? Yeah, it's got to be trimmed up. Speed it up. That way we can talk more.

Get along. Get along. You're long, you're long, you're long, you're long, you're long, you're long. That's funny. What about the slow songs are like mercy? Like, this may be tough. It can still be done. So a slow song like Brett.

young mercy. We can speed it up. It's going to sound a little different. It's like a number two this week. It's like ten, though. And then we get back to the show. It's like number two this week, Mercy. All right, we're back.

What a jam. I love that song. Well, thank you, Ray Moon. Yeah. Big hit right now. I'd be interested to hear. Morgan Evans kissed somebody sped up, huh? Yeah.

Sometimes you got a kiss come by. All right. Bones, it's weird at first. It really is weird at first, but people might get used to this. I feel like everybody would just get where they needed to go, like, way early. Are most things uncomfortable, too, before they're awesome? Exactly. It might sound weird, but it's not wrong.

All right. The latest from Nashville and Hollywood. It's the 32nd Skinny. Morgan number two here, Jason Aldeen and his wife, Brittany, revealed on Instagram that their second baby together is going to be a girl. Brad Paisley saw a viral video of two police officers singing God Bless America on Facebook and then invited them to sing with him on stage at his Massachusetts show. Nicole Kidman posted a picture of Keith Urban recording in a bathroom on Instagram saying

whatever it takes to get the right sound when you're recording nothing like acoustics in a hotel bathroom. I'm Morgan No. 2 and that's the Skinny. It's time for the good news. Over to Morgan No. 2. Morning number two, hello. Hello. So for two years, a small chihuahua mixed dog named Lulu has roamed the campus of the University of Alabama without a home. She was astray, getting all her love from students, until student Kevin would walk his dog and Lulu would come hang out with him.

And one day, she wandered into his home, and now he's adopting her, and Lulu has a forever home. Love it. Yeah, that's a good story, huh? Yeah, I like Lulu. Listen, let's not get lost on the fact that kids took care of that dog for two years as a stray. It's true. That's cool, too. Yeah.

And then it's even better how this ends. There you go. Thank you, Morgan, number two. Bobby Boneshow. Bonehead. Glory up the day. In Minnesota, a guy was busted going 100 miles an hour in a 65 zone while he was looking for a taco bell.

The officer pulled him over, asked why he was going that fast. He said he was trying to make it to Taco Bell before they closed at 2 a.m. Oh, we've all been there. Yeah, it's important. Well, the officer works the night shift, so he knows that Taco Bell, and he said it's actually open 24 hours. Oh. So he ticketed the guy $500, and no word if the guy got his Taco Bell or not.

Well, probably because he's open 24 hours. He probably left. You got some cinnamon twist. I was like, ah, he drowned his sorrows and some cinnamon twist in Mountain Dew. And probably two crunchy tacos. That's what I used to go all the time. Yeah, there you go. Thank you, right now?

Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby Bones. Thanks for waking up with us, and we're back from vacation, and we'll share a bunch of those stories coming up. I do want to tell you, Eddie, our video producer, that was talking to a guy that, lives in your neighborhood and he comes up to me and says, hey, would you please tell Eddie to get rid of his car? Oh, boy. He told you that? Yeah, so Eddie has this dang it. Why do you say that? Really old car. It's the Red Rocket. Oh, you still have it? Yeah, I never got rid of it. He took it to get it appraised, and they offered you for the car.

$200. $200. $200? The guy said the most I'd give you is $800, but $200 right now. So for the whole car, $200. Okay. That's terrible. Well, I just figured when you bought your Jeep, you did something with it. Yeah, the dealership said, we'll take it for you for like $100. So they would give you $100? Yeah, and I was like, no, that's an insult. But your neighbor says that it's parked on the side of the road. It never moved.

Because she told you that. It's a he. Yes, I know exactly who it is. And he said, hey, would you ask him to please get rid of that car because it's making the neighborhood look bad? Yes, I agree. The thing is, it doesn't work. And so I would love to move it.

And that's kind of the hard part of selling it. So now it's going to cost you more to have it moved. Yeah. She should just give it to the dealership. I should have just give it to him for $100. He said, Eddie told me he's waiting to donate to charity. I was like, Eddie's not doing anything for charity. No, that's one thing we were trying to work with.

As a matter of fact, I gave Eddie a hundred bucks. Remember that light that he broke? I said, go donate it to the animal shelter. Eddie goes, they throw him a whole parade and celebrate Eddie. And Eddie's like, yep, here I am. And listen, I'm not asking for me. I saw him posting that. And he posts this big celebratory, look what I donated to charity.

Can I tell you something? It was the coolest feeling to go donate money. You know what? Good for you. I don't care. looking for it, but I looked at you and roll my eyes, because you wouldn't have done that. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have done that.

But it was for you, and it was a good feeling. But there was no shout out. You know, there was no holding up. I explained the story. You know, you did not. Bobby wanted me to donate to the animal shelter, so here I am. His money. Well, yeah. I was just like, oh, look at Eddie working on a week day.

Like, I thought you volunteered. Like, and you... No, my family, we go walk dogs there like once in a while. Once in a while. Eddie always... Not a weekly thing or anything. We go walk dogs there once In a while

So yeah Yeah I'm working on getting rid of that car Thanks tell your buddy thank you for Throwing me under the bus there Yeah he just asked Yeah You probably need to do that Because he reminds me too

He'll drive by the house and be like Pamp get rid of that crap How do you know it's the same person? I know exactly who it is because he tells me all the time Okay okay It's a Bobby Bones show Here's a never going to get it In a recent survey

Morgan number two, what do you think it is? Drinking on the job. Drinking on the job. All right, show me drinking on the job? No. Oh, it's not it. The pro is that we're back from vacation. Yeah, that's definitely a pro. I'm tired

There she is. There she is. Come on. It's called never going to get it unless your name's Amy. Yeah. 20% of flight attendants submitted to doing this beginning a relationship with the passenger. Yeah, what's wrong with that? That's a lot.

All right. Well, thank you. It's going to. a lot of time up there. Yeah, up there. One of my favorite parts of the show is a little something we talk about country music history because you know what they call me, right?

Of course, country music's youngest historian. The Bobby Bones show. On this day in country music. On this day in 1998, 20 years ago, the Dixie Chicks had their first number one country song with, There's a Trouble. I love this song.

I love the Dixie Chicks. I love everything about the song I'm about to play. The song became the band's first number one single, August in 1998. Sounds about right. What? This used to be my go-to karaoke song back then. Oh, yeah. It was pitched to several artists, including Reba, who recorded it and never put it out.

What? Wynonna Judd heard it, but thought it had too many words. Wow. So the Dixie Chicks got it, recorded it, released it. It was the first number one ever. 1998, 20 years ago today A woman in Texas was arrested in February She goes, she takes a muckshot

Her makeup looks great Oh, yeah Someone tweeted a few weeks ago it goes viral And now people are bombarding her with requests for makeup tips So of course she now has an Instagram account In the YouTube channel Of course Yeah, I mean, listen I'll be honest

It does look pretty good Does it? Yeah Her makeup looks great in her mug shop because she's an aspiring makeup artist and right before she got arrested she had been doing a demo on Facebook and then someone tweeted it and now private appointments. I mean she's making

some real money. She's got that contouring just right. She got it man. Oh yeah. So there's that. Your son goes back to school today? Yeah, son and daughter. First day back after having, I mean they did a little bit of summer school so now they're back in full time. But when they came from the orphanage

they were kind of put into school halfway, right? Yeah, so they started school in January, which is a special school for them because they don't speak great English. So it's a English as a second language program. So then they did a little bit of summer school for that and then they've had like a month off or so. And then now they're back in that same program. We were trying to advance them on to a different school, but they didn't quite make it. You know, you sent me a video of your son last night and I was like, huh, I don't think his English is good enough for an English school. Yeah, it's not. Yeah, that's why. Yeah, like, I even, and I was trying to fit him in there without mind.

I know. I think I have just gotten better at understanding them. I didn't know what he was saying half the time. So I thought their English is getting better. But really, it's just that my comprehension is getting better of their mixed. I know what they're saying. So many, my sister, we were with her in Colorado last week. And she would look at me and say, what did they just say?

And I would know exactly what they said. I'm going to play a clip of Amy's son Stevenson. He sent me a video last night. I don't know half of what he said. But I'm going to play it. That's okay. He didn't say anything. He didn't give him any secrets.

Yeah, no. I mean, it's fun. But Amy knows everything he's saying. Yeah, I mean, I know what he was trying to say in this video. There's a picture on Amy's Instagram, and I texted her because I was laughing so hard. Her son, who's eight, has an American girl doll, but it's a boy. Yeah, in 2017, they started making boy dolls. I googled it.

So he's holding it up, and he loves it. On the airplane in front of everybody. And her husband has his head down. Oh, no. Because their son. is holding a doll. Yeah. He carried, we had a really long travel day, multiple airports and multiple airplanes,

and he carried that doll with him everywhere he went. Meanwhile, my husband, who's a pilot, is like, look at these airplanes. Let's look at those. They're so amazing. And he'd be like, Dad, look at my doll. Your husband's like, hey, football, farting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Anything. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The doll was kind of cool, though, because I would have, because I used to have Hemen and I used to have all these wrestlers. It was nice to train him with me and play with them. Yeah. Same thing. I would have my buddy.

I had a my buddy once. It's basically a dude doll. Similar to this, yes. So what's your husband think about him always having the doll? He's just not that into it. He said, when we got home, he said, it's almost like he wanted me to congratulate him for not saying something and for holding his tongue the entire trip. He said, I just want to let you know. He says, I'm super proud of myself for not seeing anything about that doll all day.

Yeah. He just kind of hung his head down and was a little annoyed, but he never said anything. He said, if he wants to play with the doll, that's fine. And then it came out. He admitted, because he had an older sister and she had dolls, he said, look, I get it. I had a doll when I was little too. But he's like, I'm not proud of it. He regrets it.

I wish I didn't have a doll. He has a doll regrets. It was a Barbie. And, you know, but this is a strawberry shortcake. It's a little different, man. So he probably doesn't like that I just said that on the radio, but... Ask him what kind of dog. Hey, secret...

I'll just ask his mom. Ammarosa him and record him secretly. Yeah, okay. And then be like, hey, what kind of dolls you have? Yeah. And then bring it in. Or ask his mom. Yeah, I'll ask his mom.

Because Amy's husband's like the manliest of men. Yeah. Amy's husband's like the opposite of me. Like if there's me and you go a complete opposite, that's Amy's husband. Last night, my son was brushing his American Girl Toss's hair. It came with a pick. A little pick You can pick it

Pick at the hair Oh yeah It has accessories and everything A backpack a jacket Headphones My husband hid the accessories For a little bit Hey if there are any moms

Out there even dads That struggled with The man Having trouble that the son Was had a doll Because I'm sure this happens With Barbies and stuff too Sure

It has to happen And my husband really is I'll give him props He is trying to be really cool about it But you can tell Internally he's He's funny It's time

For the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. A San Diego couple can be very thankful to some city workers who miraculously found a $30,000 wedding ring that was tossed in the garbage. Wow. When the unnamed couple realized the ring had been pitched out by mistake, they called to report it and the city said, okay, we're going to send some people out, but good luck.

It's been in a truck and thrown into the landfill. Like, they're going to find that. but they went and they looked and they looked and they found it I'm amazed that you would ever take your eyeballs off a $30,000 anything right but a big shout out to the workers in San Diego who went on and dug through the garbage and found this ring that is awesome and that's a tell me something good and I like that

that was Tell Me Something Good Lobby Boneshow The latest from Nashville in Hollywood It's the 30 Second Skinny. Garth Brooks made a surprise appearance at Tootsies on Broadway in Nashville. He heard a local band playing his song that summer and jumped up on stage to sing with him. That's not the same song, but that is Garth Brooks yelling some songs. That would be cool if you're a barn, Garth Brooks shows up.

Yeah. Have you heard the band playing? I just wouldn't believe it was him. Like part of me's going, that would be cool, but really I'd be like, that's like Garth Brooks. Take that hat off. Stop it. Stop it. Yeah, what else you got?

Carrie Underwood shared the first photo of her baby bumps since her big announcement. She debuted the bump with a photo on Instagram before her opera performance. Hey, look at her. Have another baby. What else? Brad Paisley saw a viral video of two police officers, seeing God Bless America on Facebook. And then he invited them to sing on stage with him at his Massachusetts show. Holy moly.

That's it. I'm Morgan number two. That's the skinny. Hey, what's happening, guys? you know, you go on your phone, you're always tinking around, trying to find stuff to do. There's a lot of games, a lot of apps out there, but I'll say this, there's only one Best Fiends.

That's Friends Without the R. Best fiends, and you can be part of the club. Folks, it's your buddy and my friend. Mr. Bobby Bones. Yeah, over to Amy with the morning corny. The Morning Corny. What's the best way to carve wood? What's the best way to carve wood?

Whittle by whittle. That's pretty funny. Come on. Come on. That's good. The Morning Corny. There it is. Lunchbox is back in the studio.

Hey, we were talking before you came in. Amy's son has an American girl. Oh, I heard it. it. Trust me. You have a new sign? Baby Box will not have a doll. I'll take that right.

Mark it down. He comes in, shot out of a rocket about that one. I almost crashed my car. Easy. Easy. Hey, JC in Illinois. Hey, Bobby, good morning. Hey, how are you doing?

Hey, hold on a second. I'm a little phone issue there. Let me come back to that. Hey, Amelia in Alabama. Hey, how are you? What do you want to say about this doll? Well, my son is eight, and he's had one for a little. three years is the American doll, twin, the boy doll.

Yeah, so your daughter has the twin of it, the girl doll? Yes, she does. And does your husband think anything about that? He's not too fond of it, but I personally believe research says it makes him a great father. I'm going to tell you this. I'm getting a lot of tweets saying that. What? That my son will grow up to be a great dad because he was a doll.

Whatever it takes. You can call it a doll, call it action figure. Because let's be for real, we all had little dolls as boys. We just called them action figures. Yeah, G.I. Joe's. They're just tiny dolls. They're just tiny Barbies with different clothes.

Yeah, they're like soldiers and stuff. So everybody can just relax. You know what I mean? Yeah. Anna in Ohio, what do you think about this? Well, my son came out of church one morning with a Barbie doll. Asked him, you know, later, I said, you know, why did you pick that Barbie instead of, you know, something else? And he said, oh, mama, because she's so pretty.

And so, like, to me, that's more of a concern that he's already noticing people being pretty. But, you know, I don't care. My husband, who's a veteran of the Marine Corps for 10 years, also doesn't care. Like, it doesn't define what he is. Okay. Exactly. He's already noticing the perfectly proportioned Barbie. You know, because that's a whole thing.

What's that? Barbie, I think, has now become curvier because so many people were having issues with Barbie not being realistic. And I'm like, well, Barbie's at all. Yeah, you know what's not realistic? It's plastic with no organ. Right. Not real. But girls grow up thinking, oh, I'm supposed to look like Barbie.

Yeah. I guess. You know what? I never played Mike Tyson's punch on and went, ah, should be that. Oh, he was huge in that one. I know. J.C. in Illinois, I'm sorry.

Your phone was messing up. You back? Yes, I am. Can you hear me? Okay, good. Yes, I can. Go ahead. Perfect.

Well, I started my first day of teaching this morning, and I made, like, an introduction about me, PowerPoint. And on my slide with other known facts, I put avid listener of the Bobby Bones soap, and there's a picture of you guys. And then I put, like, lover of the morning corny or something. And that way I can tell my kids' jokes in the morning. Let me ask you this. This is your first day teaching ever? Yes.

Ever. Hold on. Hold on a minute. Ever? Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever, ever. Wait, so what grade do you teach? What year?

I teach high school agriculture, and I'm an FSA advisor. Shout out. And so how old are you? 22. You're fresh out of school. Wow. Yeah, just graduated back in December. Look at you, going to change the minds of the youth.

I'm trying. You've got to be careful. Listen, I see too many stories about these female teachers and these dudes. Oh, no. I mean, she's only 22. I can see where an 18-year-olds might be sort of still cute, especially if he looks older. Wait, Amy. Oh, me-at.

Just being honest, she's so, yes. Me too, me too. I think that too, me too, me too. Oh, my goodness. No, because she's not teaching junior high, which is normally where the stories happen, and I just don't get that at all, like 12, 13. But, I mean, 18, sometimes they look 22. Jay, so what's thinking about that?

Well, that's not going to happen. Okay. Famous last words. They all say that one. I never met one that goes. It's going to happen. Trust me. Jayce, what celebrity do you look like if you had to pick one?

A lot of people tell me I look like Catherine Zeta Jones. Oh, that's trouble. Wow. Oh, wow. Dang it, you got a lot of people signing up for FFA now. People like, move. I'm in. They're like, I have a goat.

Oh, Jaycee. Okay, listen. Be good. good. I will. Okay. We're joking. Jason, listen, we're really excited for you that you're starting.

We're just giving you a hard time, kind of. It's funny. Keep it posted. Thank you for calling. I don't want to see your mugshot. Where do you live, Illinois? Where do you live in Illinois? Waterloo, it's by St. Louis.

All right. You go do good and be good. I will. And we'll talk to you soon. Okay. Good luck today. Awesome. Thank you so much.

All right, bye-bye. Thank you. I appreciate you. I do. I appreciate you. What's up? You mood. Yeah, yeah, I did.

I know. What's up? What's up, Miss Jaycee? Bha-ha-ha. Oh, my goodness. She'll be fine. Yeah, yeah. You got this.

Can say Jones? Dang. This is the kind of breaking and entering I would do if I decided to break an inner. A man is accused of breaking into a popular Chattanooga restaurant, cooking some chicken wings, stealing a. a city truck and then driving off. Surveillance video shows the guy breaking and crawling through a window at Champy's

restaurant before stealing well he stole several thousand dollars. You wouldn't do that. No, no. I would just still get the snack. But he stole all the money and then cooked him up a snack. While you there, if you're hungry. I'm going to tell you, I would be so scared while I was stealing. I wouldn't, first I wouldn't be hungry.

Secondly, I would be like, I got to get out of here. This guy just decides to grill him up some knee there. She's chilling. You can see the man on camera. eating wings. He didn't just eat. In 45 minutes, you see him put beer, food, cake, shirts, coosies. Wow. All in a bag. Forty-five minutes. Cusies. He took his time and everything. He's savoring the flavor. Bobby bones. So I did a lot of stuff on vacation over the past week.

I guess I can work backward and I went to watch the Cubs play him, die-hard Chicago Cubs fan. And so for me it was cool. And then it was also cool that I got to throw out the first pitch, which is cool to walk on the field and I haven't shown anyone in the video yet I'm gonna post it on my Instagram I just don't want to get hassled because I wasn't trying to whip it in there

You didn't make it My thought was I'm throwing the first pitch out at Wrigley Field And once Mark has my phone now I go Alright I'm hitting plate Here he is he's watching it Oh here he goes There he goes

Watching it Don't want Oh come on What are you doing What are you doing? This is my goodness This is my That is terrible

This is my theory here, okay? I get up there and I go, first of all, it's all about me getting to walk out on the mound of the baseball park that I've probably been to more than any of the park. The team I love my whole life. My state has a Cubs tattoo on him, and I got to take him. It was a real special thing. And so I go, if I throw it as hard as I can, it's still not going to go very hard. And I have a chance to miss. So I just got up on the mound.

Oh, no. Oh, Bobby, I'm scared for you. No, I just went. I just went like, they were like, hey, you know, from radio or from a mound. American Idol and from whatever they said, buy bones. And I'm like, and I wave and I look around, take it in. And then I just take the ball and I just kind of lobbed it up.

Oh, no. And he got caught it. Yes. He kind was like a pop fly? Yes, Amy. Poplar. What? What? What? What? What? I'm not trying to get a deal. Guys, I'm not trying to get signed by the Iowa Cubs. Okay, y'all. Hold on. I'm posting it on my Instagram. We'll come back to it in a minute. Wow. How bad is it, lunchbox?

It's not bad at all. Oh, it's bad. No, it's not. I mean... Did the catcher... So the catcher caught it? Oh, you see her. And the crowd cheers.

Is the catcher put his head down and discussed? Well, yeah, they probably felt bad for you. Oh, good for me. Yeah. The guy caught down and shakes his hand and goes, man, you're going to throw it a little harder than that, dude. I had nothing to gain by throwing it as hard as I could because even me throwing as hard as I could is not that hard. Okay, so were you debating a pop fly or a grounder? No, never. I was not debating anything.

I just wanted to enjoy it, not be nervous about it. None of that. I wanted to just enjoy the experience. I have trouble with enjoying experiences. So I thought, I'm putting it. putting no added pressure or stress on me by throwing the ball as hard as I could. I can see that. I have one question.

Go ahead. Did they tell you not to go all the way up to the rubber? Because you didn't even go all the way up to the rubber. I went halfway up because, again, the higher you get. Wait, what? I'm confused by the question. There's a, it's a, on the top of the mound. There's a white strip.

It's called the rubber. That's where the pitcher stands. I just walked halfway up. I don't want to stand on the rubber. Okay. Guys, I have nothing to prove by trying to be a legitimate pitcher. You were like in the grass? No.

I'm going to watch the video. I'll post it on my Instagram. So there's that. My stepdad ended up coming with me. Oh, I love that so much. I was obsessed with him being there. And he wore, he got a new fedora. Okay.

I've never seen him wear a fedora. I had a fedora on. He was on vacation, man. Yeah. And so he flew up and, yeah, it was good too because we haven't spent a lot of personal time together in the last few years. So we landed and we went for like coffee and talked. And then we went to the game. And we got to go on the field, which he thought was the cool.

coolest thing ever, which I, me too. That's awesome. But it was cooler for me that he thought it was cool. Like the coolest thing about the whole thing is that he thought it was cool. Yeah. Because I can see that. And you know, you need to, I think, share a little bit of y'all going to the Cubs game, what, probably 13 years ago or something. And it was the first time y'all had ever hugged or said, I don't know what you did. But it was, I just remember being a really special moment. I didn't think about it. You're right. It was the first time we'd ever hugged. In my life, so I don't know my biological father. I met him recently for the first time in 30 years, but I don't know him. So my stepdad came in when I was like 12. It was in until like 19, something like that,

before him, my mom divorced. So I guess officially he's not my stepdad anymore. It's fine. This is what he is to you. But yeah, he was a real stable part of those teenage years. I didn't have a lot of stability until then. And so, yeah, we never hugged who does that? No, I don't know that. So it was the first time I hugged him. But then this time I didn't think about it. I just hugged him as soon as he showed up, then hugged him on the way out. I didn't even think about that. Wow. It was like, what up? We gave him a hug.

That's awesome. That's good, man. So was that going out on the field and out on the mat? Was that the coolest moment of your life? Ooh, he's got a lot of cool moments. I know, but that has, I mean, that is an iconic landmark in sports history. And I'm a diehard fan. And it's like the two things that have been with me in my whole life are the Arkansas

Razorbacks and the Chicago Cubs. Not people. No people have been there in my whole life. The sports teams. But those two teams have been with my whole life. I'm telling you, the best part about it, it just wasn't even me walking out there. It was him getting going on the field. I get to do cool things sometimes.

I got to sing on stage at the rhyme with Garth Brooks. These are things that I get to do and remember and go, oh, you know, this is a nutty life that I'm living. But sharing that with him. But sharing that was probably cooler than actually going out there. Huh. Did you scoop up some dirt and put it in your pocket? I did not. Oh, man, you should do that.

You should have got some of the grass implanted in your yard. For what? What did you do? I forgot about this. Listen, this was set up five months ago before we were going on the air in Chicago and our show starts today in Chicago we're not on, they're running best up for a few weeks

but apparently there's another radio station there to try to kick me out because they're like a corporate sponsor I didn't know this, I just show up and they're like, oh, you can't. And I'm like, wait, what do you mean? This is from, it's not about radio. Like, this is my life. They were letting me on because American Idol

on my second book. They finally thought I was cool enough. And then another radio station in Chicago, I guess a competitor. which I don't even compete with radio stations in my mind. This whole radio station competing a radio station thing is the dumbest thing ever. We're competing for just a space in someone's life. That's it.

And they had to try to get me kicked out. And they said he can't throw the first pitch. They took me off the website. Wow. Oh, it was the whole thing. I didn't lie to bring me down. I didn't even remember it in my surface because I was like, yeah, I'm just here to enjoy it. But isn't that weird that a radio station would do that?

Yeah. Why are they going to take away your moment? They tried. They didn't, no. They didn't. They didn't. So, yeah, I thought it was weird. I'm, I'm telling you.

And I was so jealous. That was so cool to see, like, a picture of you going out on the field. I'm like, oh, that's awesome. But you should have got some ivy planted on your wall. I mean, something. Steal a bunch of stuff. Yes. It was cool.

The coolest thing, the real, true, cool thing was sharing in the moment. That was the coolest thing. Love it. Yeah. And so, but he flew up, and then our boss, also my friend, Rod drove up just to go to the game, not to do anything else, not to work. just come to, like, be a part of it. So it's cool.

That's awesome. I'm glad you had people there. Yeah. When I saw that Arkansas Keith was going, I was like, oh, this is so special. It was very special. Yeah, it was good. So Daddy Yankee, here. You would know that.

You probably know this, though. How could you not? He was robbed of $2.3 million of jewels in a hotel. What's that? Yeah. A man posing. as the performer had hotel staff in Spain opened the guys safe in the room.

Okay, here's the thing, right? I hear this and I go out, that's unfortunate and $2.3 million in jewelry, you're traveling with them. It's a lot, right? My thing is, if you're going to have $2.3 million in jewelry, are you not going to pay somebody

$1,000 to just guard it all the time? Like, that's all. Just pay somebody $1,000 to guard your $2.3 million in jewelry. I don't care if they're in the safe. He stands outside of the safe. Gotcha. Yeah. Because someone went in and was like, yeah, I'm Daddy Yankee. And they're like, prove it. He goes, uh, Despacito.

They're like, okay, go on in, sir. Despaicito. Good by me, go ahead. How can you prove it? I love that song. Despacito. Sounds like a nuts thing, Bob. Let me hear it here on the, on the Ohio radio.

Yeah, despotis. Yeah, that's him. Yeah, go on. Give him the jewels. Oddly he wants them all. All right. Yeah, 2.3. The rapper reportedly discovered the missing jewels.

Two of his rooms were robbed. One with the safe container of the jewels and the other with thousands of dollars in cash. Why are you traveling with so much stuff? Because he's Daddy Yankee. I guess so. Things to do. What's Mommy Yankee?

Lots of jewels. Is there a Mama Yankee? I don't know. So Low Cash canceled the show because Preston's wife went into labor. They had a baby, by the way. Congratulations to those guys right there. Low Cash had to cancel a show because Preston's wife went into labor.

He got back to Nashville in time to be with her as they gave birth, and I saw that people were upset with them for canceling a show. But did they know the reason why? Because I feel like once they understood why, they wouldn't be mad. I don't know, Amy. We don't live in conventional America anymore. People get mad for nothing. I know.

But there is that debate. You know, we talk about this sometimes, like if it's the Super Bowl or your quarterback for a major team. And your wife goes into labor. Do you still play the game? I can end the debate. You're not wrong either way. Okay. If you decide to go home, you're not wrong.

Love that. If you decide to keep playing, you're not wrong. It's your life. As long as your wife says, it's okay to keep playing. Whatever that you guys decide, anger from Super Bowl, anger from this, it goes away. Always. Give it a week, give it a month. It's gone.

Hopefully, that's all you need. Yeah. The anger from the wife, if she wants you to come by, never go away. That's forever. There's a similar. He didn't make it in time. Their son Legend Wild was born on Friday. Their second child.

Yeah, good for them. I mean, listen, I know those guys pretty well, so that's good. They're good dudes. That's the thing about low cash. Good dudes and just grinders. Yeah, they don't really deserve anybody to be mad at them. I know, right? No.

Probably the second hardest working people in country music. Who's first? Me. Oh, yeah. Thank you. Right behind you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was doing the power ranking.

Yeah. him and then me. So yeah, there's that. So, but yeah, congratulations to those guys. Lunchbox is gone a couple weeks. You're tired or what? Yeah. Just you're just tired? Well, I mean, I guess it hadn't been too bad because the in-laws came in for like five or six days and they, I mean, took over. So lunchbox had a baby. How old baby box right now? A month? About a month. I mean, basically a month old. Wow. And so when you say they took over, like, did they take night? Like, if the baby crying at night, you didn't have to get up?

Baby in Texas? No, no, not baby in Texas, but they get up at the 2 a.m., 5 a.m., 8 a.m. feeding, so I'd feed the kid at 11 p.m. and sleep till 9. It was great. Okay, yeah, so you're not tired. No, so it was pretty simple. I was like, you guys are awesome. Like, oh, you want me to get up at 5?

No, you guys, oh, thank you so much. You sure you don't want me to get up 5? Okay. They were awesome. And they, yeah, they held the baby chance. the baby's diaper, it was great. So because they're not going to spend a lot of time with the baby, they're taking all the time.

Right. When they were here, they spent all the time. So we've been on our own for about three or four days now. It's a little rough, but let's be real. My wife has the hard part. She's got a pump. She's got to feed. She's got to do all that. But does she got to feed? Because you can feed from the pumped

bottles. I would think she doesn't got it. Right, right, right. Right. Right. Yeah. But we're trying to go all the way with no bottles. We're trying to get to that point, but he was a preemie, so it takes too much energy, so we're still using bottles, but she's got to do it more than me. But I mean, like, when I'm sitting there watching TV, I pull out a bottle, I'll feed him. No problem. Does he cry a lot? No. Oh, that's awesome. He's a pretty chill baby. He doesn't cry a lot. And I don't know if it's because he's young and he hasn't developed the lung power

because it wears him out. Like he'll cry every minute and then pass out. So like you on the show. No, I got, do I cry a lot? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Just a little bit. Do you feel like it's toned you down a bit? Like, do you see life different? I mean, it's pretty different.

It's pretty crazy. I don't know if I've toned down, but I just look at it. I'm like, man, I got to teach this kid how to do a lot of things. Like what? Just how to talk to people, how to meet girls, how to, like, things like that. Your second thing is meet girls. Like the baby is a month old. That was a quick second.

He doesn't even know. He's like, well, do good things. Hook up with chicks. Wait, what? Okay. Like, that's one of the things you worry about. I think as a dad, the... You worry about whether or not your one-month-old baby boy is going to be able to get girls?

Yes, because I look at people that have never had a girlfriend or never had a relationship or have their first one in their 30s or whatever. And I just like, man, I got to teach my kid not to be that way. Okay. Are you being gentle about saying to teach your kid to not be like me? a little bit. A little bit. I'm trying to be nice. Like, Bobby has no confidence.

And my kid better not be like that. My kid needs to be out there just be like, what up? Ladies, I'm here. Ladies. I think about that kind of thing. I don't know if that's weird, but I think it's normal. But he's chilling. Lunchbox's got a one-month-old son, chilling.

Didn't cry through the night? No, and he sleeps 99% of the day. Every once in a while he'll look at you with his eyes open. Like daddy. killing that nap time. He does kill nap time. Do you still feel like you'll get to nap? Yeah.

I mean, because the wife's on vacation. Is it vacation or is it maternity leave? Well, maternity leave. I guess you call it maternity leave. Yes, that is what you call it. Okay, that's funny. That's funny. All right, thank you, lunchbox.

Yeah, lunchbox's giving me a hard time. Two, one, we were just talking about, he calls his wife's maternity leave vacation. Vacation. Vacation isn't where you put your feet up and you... Yeah, she's not necessarily relaxing. Put your toes in the sand. Are you kidding me? We got a recliner now.

And she is up in that recliner having a good old time. So you think she's on vacation. Yeah. Because you think pumping every three hours for breast milk is vacation? Here we go. I mean, she doesn't have to... She doesn't want. She has to pump.

She has to pump. I get it. Her boobs will explain. Right, but she's just chilling why she doesn't. She gets to watch TV all day long because the kid can't go anywhere. So she is relaxing. Would you guys ever go have dinner and leave the kid? Because your whole thing used to be, what's the baby going to do?

No, we could at this point, yes. Wait, excuse me? We could at this point, yes, because the baby can't move. You could, but would you? I would. Wait, so you would leave the kid for an hour by himself? Yes. Oh, my goodness.

No, no, no. Because you put it in the crib and nothing in the crib. It's sort of like at night. You just lay it now with a little swaddle on. The baby's going nowhere. The baby can't roll over on its stomach. So it's good. It'll just lay there for an hour.

You'll come back. And guess what? I guarantee the kid will be right there. I guarantee it. Oh, your money's back. I mean, you really can't guarantee it. No, I can't guarantee it because the kid can't move. Would you at least monitor it, like video baby monitor?

No, I don't have one of those. What? Just FaceTiming, man. Just leave the FaceTime on. But they do make apps now where you can monitor your baby. and watch it from your phone. Okay. See, that's what I'm saying.

Like, the baby is going, the farthest it can go is over on its side. That's it. Okay. Hey, do you feel like life's cooler now? It is pretty cool, yeah. It's pretty neat. New baby makes it cool?

It makes it really cool, except for it makes it your social life a little difficult. And go ahead? Just because the baby can't go where a lot of people are, so you can't really go places. Like? You can't even go to the grocery store. You've got to go to a grocery store by yourself.

Like, the wife and I can't go. go together because the baby can't go. Like Eddie and his wife and Ray and his girlfriend got together. He just said his social life was being affected. The grocery store. No, he said, no, he said, where can't you go?

And I said, you can't even go to the grocery store. But like Eddie and his wife and Ray got together and we couldn't go because why? Baby can't go where there's a lot of people. Yeah, that makes more sense. We went to the grocery store. That's where me there was. I thought luncheugs would be like, I can't go to the bar.

We can't do that either. You can't go to a sporting event. can't go to a concert, can't go to anything. That's terrible, man. You can get a babysitter. But not that early, huh? Oh, not yet, I wouldn't. I don't think so.

I mean, you could, but I would. Can you just do on airplanes and put those little dogs on bags? Oh, yeah. I just take him with his bag. But because his baby was born so early, I get not exposure. Because, like, we haven't even able to come visit the baby

because it's not around people. Yeah, you got to get your T-Dap shot. Is that the thing Cam Newton does? No, it's whooping calls. A dab? A dab? A dab. What?

What? What? That's funny, bones. Oh, I thought it was da. Well, listen, we're happy for you. Yeah, you got to get that whooping cough shot, guys. Okay. Yeah, we heard that.

Okay, we'll get that. Do we already have that? Yeah, I get one every week. Oh, Bobby's good then. Yeah, I go. I get all the shots. It's time for the good news. Tell me something good.

So these two newlyweds, Zach and Cindy Edwards, they were in the middle of taking wedding day photos on orange. Beach in Alabama when someone swimming close by got caught in rough currents and started drowning. But guess what? Zach is a former lifeguard and member of the Coast Guard. Oh, wow. So he stopped the photo shoot to swim in and save the guy. Yeah, the groom helped the man back to shore and emergency responders helped the two guys

onto the beach. They were fine. Zach did have a little bit of a nose bleed and, you know, warned his brand new wife to keep her distance because she had on a white wedding dress. but all is good. How lucky. I know. Not to drown.

How lucky that there was someone there? Yeah. And he was in the Coast Guard. No big deal. Thank you very much. That was Tell Me Something Good. Folks, it's your buddy and my... Mr. Bobby Bones.

Let's go. This is the Bobby Boll. Amy, I was telling you my favorite song on that Blake Shelton record. The new one is this one called Turning Me On. She's Turning Me On. I think I even name drops. Yeah, you did. Being at his ranch.

And he played it for you? And I was like, Dude, this song's a jam. Like, I can't fire? Did you eat him? I was like, you kind of just turning me on, dude. So this is the new Blake Shelton song. She's turning me on.

So I ran into one of my friends, I guess it was the Friday before vacation. And I was like, hey, Jesse. She was like, hey, what on? She wrote this song. Hey, Jesse's on the phone now. Hey, Jesse. Hey, so you wrote Turning Me On. I did with Blake.

Look at this. Look at this. Love it. That was crazy. What are you saying? Well, I mean, I like hearing the backstory and who else is involved because I just picture Blake sitting down

with a pen and paper writing about Gwen. Pretty much. Yeah, exactly. I think he was on a bus. I'm not sure where, but he had that chorus and sent it to me and I'm sitting there, her right. Boom, I get a text from Blake Shelton.

I'm like, what is this about? And he's like, hey, sis, I got this little idea going, you want to write it with me? I'm like, yes. So then I had to find, you know, the perfect person to write. write it with and that would be Josh Osborne so here we are

so how long until he says hey I'm going to record it until you finally hear the final version of it like when it's produced from on the record? It was a while you know I sang on the record so I got to hear it a lot sooner than than normal but I would say you know a couple months

and then I still haven't heard it on the radio yet oh I'm about to play us so don't you worry about that so I love the song even before I knew Jesse Alexander was the writer Jesse's the best And so, wait, you're singing on this too, right? Yes. Come on.

You want to know some other songs she wrote, Am? Yeah. She wrote, I Drive Your Truck for Libre Ice. I love this song. She wrote Blake, mine will be you. And she wrote The Climb for Miley Cyrus. Really? Yeah.

How about that one right there? I need to bring that one back around. That's a good one. Now that I hear it again. She plays the climb. It sounds like... Oh, yeah. No, no, no, Jesse plays it.

No, Jesse does? Yeah. She can also sing. I'm like, yeah, she probably does. No, no, no. Okay, hey, listen. Jesse, congratulations on this big old, awesome song. I loved it before I even knew you're part of it.

Now I love it even more. Thanks, blood. I'm going to make sure you hear it on the radio right now. I'm going to hang up on you. Okay. All right. There's Jesse Alexander, one of my favorite writers. Also, episode 63 of the Bobbycast.

On the phone now is Arkansas, Keith. Hey, good morning. Good morning. This is my stepdad. We went to Chicago and watched the Cubs game together throughout the first pitch. We were both diehard fans. He has the Cubs tattooed on his right shoulder, is it? Yes, it is.

Yeah. So what did you think about that? That was a great day, right? Friggy Phil Chicago. Cubs game. I mean, I thought it was great. What did you think about going on the field? I loved it, man.

Reggie Phil. Man, what can I say? Grigleyville, Chicago. 50 years of a Cub fan. Yeah, so it's a kid. What are you saying? Arkansas, Keith, some of your buddies back home, could they believe what you were going to do?

I didn't really tell that many about them. I've been bragging about it since I got in today. Okay, well, now that you're back. Yeah, I'm really loving it up. Yeah, it was a fun trip. It was a great trip. How did you think Bobby's pitch was, were you, you know, being his step,

dad for, you know, so many years? Like, were you super proud of him? Like, his actual pitch? His actual pitch, I want him to blaze it, but, you know, that's his decision. Yeah, Keith. He also was like, just throwing it as hard as you can. Come on, Keith, I thought he did a good job, like,

just making sure it got to the catcher's glove. I thought it was perfect. I said, blaze it and don't put it in a dirt, but, you know, he did what he thought he was there. I went out and thought I want to enjoy the moment. I don't want to be nervous about throwing a First pitch as hard as I possibly can. But Arkansas Keith said blazes.

He said blazing. I'm going to tell you this, too. I think Arkansas Keith has a bit of a warped memory because he thinks I was a much better athlete than I really was. Give yourself a little credit, man. You're a great outfiel and a good first baseman. I remember those days, you know. No arm, Harley, but give yourself your little credit, you know. He says no arm, but he wants me to blaze it.

That's my point. It's all a contradiction. No arm, Harley. Oh, yeah, no arm. Oh, yeah, no arm. Oh. I could run, I could catch. You couldn't really throw?

I could throw fine, but I'm talking about not above average for sure. But yeah, he would be like, yeah, I remember when you used to run all the other. I was like, I think you remember the wrong person. Did you have another stepson? There was a much better athlete than me. Yeah, it was all right. But the trip was a lot of fun, right? It wasn't had nice dinner.

It was a great trip. It was a great trip. We got to talk a little bit. I think the first time you and I had three sit-down conversations like that in years. In a couple years anyway. Yeah. Anything else going on with you? Same more stuff just out working today.

What are you doing today? What's on the agenda? We're fixed to do some mowing. How much mowing do you do at a time? All day. It just depends on where we're at, how big area it is, you know. Some of them are smaller and some of them are bigger, you know. I said we usually get there and it takes all day to do one sometimes.

Like Crystal Springs, you're familiar with that. We're there today. It'll take us all day to do this. We'll be more than all day. So you mow state parks. specifically? Federal parks, yeah. Well, listen, I'm glad you got to come up.

It was a blast. We went walking by the river. Big town, Chicago. Yeah. Yeah. A small town guy like me, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And for me, again, I get, it's a little, I'm a little jaded by going to big cities now because I've been a bunch of times.

But, I mean, Mount Pines is 700 people where we grew up. Yeah, there's no two-story stuff there. There's no two-story stuff. No, no, no, that's funny. Not high rides. There's no two stories. 34th floor, man. That's the hotel. He's standing 34th floor. Yeah. I'd always be just being there.

Yeah. Well, best part about the trip, you think? What was the best part about the trip? Walking out on Wrigley Field, Chicago, man. And what was the worst part about the trip? You had to pick one. Walking to get to my flight yesterday morning. It was a long trip in O'Hare.

I wasn't ready for that big airport. Oh, yeah. What airport, do you fly to Little Rock if you're flying somewhere? Yeah, Little Rock's nothing compared to Ohio, you know. If you fly to Little Rock and you drive back to Hot Springs Mountain Pine, yeah. Well, listen, it was great to spend some time together. It was fantastic, man. Go watch Cubs.

I mean, that's the language that we talked. It wasn't like, how you feeling? You want to talk about life? It was like, hey, how did the Cubs do today? Yeah. Yeah, how many hit Sandberg get? That was our communication. Well, anyway, well, good to see you.

Good talk to you. All right. All right. Good talking to you, man. Talk to you soon. See you later. Bye. There he is.

Arkansas, Keith. Aw. Yeah. Love it. Yeah. You guys walking out on the Wrigley Field, man. What do you think? What do you think of my favorite?

The best part of it was. Don't mean it. You moron, you know what it is. Come on. So it's late at night, and I turn the TV on over the weekend, and they're like, an airplane's been stolen, and it's flying through the air. the guy's doing tricks and crashes. I was like, what happened here?

So I'll give you this. An airline worker stole an airliner and crashed it, leaving his family and more stunned. Hey, quiet mics over there. What do you know about this? Yeah, he was a ground service agent, so he had like clearance to get in there and everything and he just randomly took it. What's a ground service agent? He can do all kinds of different things, like moving aircraft, loading luggage.

He can move an airplane? Well, yes. It's like a tow truck. Oh, that little truck. Oh, you can't get in and go, beep, beep. No, no, no, no, no. Okay, so he, Mike, he gets in the airplane, and no one says anything to him. No, because he has, I mean, he has the credentials.

And he takes the key, turns the ignition. There's no key. There's no key. I even asked my husband, I'm like, how do he get the keys? My husband looked at me and he goes, there's no keys. So then he backs it up and flies it out? He flies it. What happened?

He flew it 25 miles, but he had no training. He wasn't a licensed pilot. You're telling me, this guy. never flown an airplane before and then he flies the airplane? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. And so then what, does he did a trick or something? Like towards the end, he flew it, he did some tricks.

Did he die? He did. Oh. Yeah, it was a suicide mission. Doing tricks, though? Okay, so here's the deal. He was very disturbed. He even said that over to air traffic control.

He said, I never knew I was this messed up in the head until now. And he had no idea how to land it, so he had no intentions of ever landing. Wow. And, yes, he played video games. and my husband said as a pilot, even the trick, the loop-de-loop he did, you can, if you're in a simulator or playing video games, you can,

you can figure out how to do that. What? Yeah, he was doing barrel holes. He did it. He did it. And two F-15 fighter pilots took off, broke the sound, the bear, like Sonic Boom situation.

Because I thought he may have been flying into a building. Yeah, and then, but they did not shoot him down some reports. And some people were thinking, like, how did he crash? I mean, he literally crashed into an island where 17 people actually, live or 17 homes or something, but nobody else was hurt besides him. Hey, Mike D. What's the audio I have here? It's from the black box. Okay. Do I want to hear this or no? I've only heard air traffic control. I've heard black box. I've heard him talking

back and forth and he tells them at the end, he says, you know what, I think I'm just going to go ahead and put this nose down and call today. Because like he successfully did the loop. So he's like, well, okay, I don't think he thought he would successfully do the loop. And then when he did, he was like, well, okay, that's cool. It's time to be done. It's going to disappoint them to hear that I did this. I would like to apologize to each and every one of them. He sounds so just content. Mm-hmm.

Yep. Wow. Just that broken guy. Got a few screws loose, I guess. Never really knew it until now. Mm-hmm. And his family. Because that's the voice of, I just kind of give up.

like he's not frantic he's just like you know this this this is just it sounds like you always wanted to fly an airplane like this is what I think just going okay what's happening here he uh

listen it's heavy you hate that he hates that he died um he could have went and shot something up or crashed it into something he didn't he's like I've always learned a flying airplane this is me just projecting whatever thing I was on flying airplane I've been around him

I've learned in video games I'm gonna take one out final hurrah can have a little fun and then end it yeah Because he's like at peace here, right? Do you guys hear that? Yeah. And that's what I even, yeah.

Some, you want to think like, oh, he must be so messed up at the moment, which he is. But then he also had the clarity to be like, I know I'm disappointing a lot of people right now. Well, that's what I hear. He's not like, oh, screw this, screw, you know, politics, my girlfriend who dumped me, all this. No, he had a wife. Oh, my goodness. And his parents. And then coworker, I saw one of his former co-workers on the news.

It said he was hardworking, nice guy. Like, was good at his job? You just wonder what's happening. Here's the thing, too. I know I've said this before. You just never know what's happening inside the meat suit we're wearing here. You know? We're just a bunch of meat and bones, but inside we got this heart and this head,

this soul. Well, you don't know what's happening in there. You can't really judge people's inside feelings based on what the outside. is showing you. Yeah. Wow. I never heard that. I'm a bit shaken by the audio.

And not that he's like, he's just not angry. Yeah. Very calm. I mean, yeah, and you're flying. I'm thinking he's literally flying an airplane in the sky. And he's about to die.

And he's talking to air traffic control. And they were trying to encourage him to land. Actually, they were giving him coordinates of where he could land and saying there's an airport right here. Why don't you just go ahead and land the plane before you hurt anybody? And he didn't hurt anybody, right?

No, no. No. I kind of thought when he first crashed into this island area that nobody was on there. And then later I saw, I mean, there's homes on the island. So it's kind of luckily, like he went into an area where nobody else was. So on this story, he did not expect to get to land the tricks. Is that what it is? I don't think so.

I don't know if he just wanted to try him. He didn't, I don't think he really cared if he finished him or not because I think he planned on dying either way. And I think he, even on the voice back and forth with the air traffic controller, says, oh, man, I just threw up. And the guy that caught audio, sorry, video footage of it, he thought it was, he had no idea. He thought it was a stunt thing because there was the fighter jets and they were practicing for something.

And there's video of him doing the loop and you see him coming up across the water like, oh, he's not going to make it. He's not going to make it. And then boom, he pulls right up. Even my husband was like, oh, man. Oh my gosh, she's not going to make it. And then he pulled, my husband was like, well, he maneuvered out of that, like, got right up. And that, you know, I'm sure he was, who knows if he was inquisitive to pilots, like, working at the airfield and asking questions?

Because I'm like, how do you know how to just do all that when you've never flown a plane before? And your husband said video games. He said, it's possible. Also, he said, who knows what he did? He said, if I was a pilot and I worked with that guy, if he ever asked me questions and was in the cockpit area and was like, hey, how does this work? or maybe I want to be a pilot one day. My husband's like, I would probably tell him how to do stuff. So maybe he asked questions at times or went on YouTube.

What size plane are we talking here? Is this 737? No, it's about 76 passengers. So one of those like American Eagle. Prop. Not American Airlines, but like the inside of it. Yeah. A prop plane meaning the heads of propellers on the outside.

I nailed some loop-de-loops. Yeah. And a barrel rule. It's crazy. I didn't know all those elements. of the story. I thought I do just stolen airplane. He crashed it. Yeah, I know. And he... For over a while. It wasn't like it was just an up and down.

I don't know if I read this part or I heard him say this part to air driving control. Like something like, oh, I don't know how to land. And I think landing is the hardest part. So he... Yeah, he was like, I don't know how to land. So I don't think he had intentions of ever landing. Well, man. How did that story? By the way, let me say this.

The show's over today when it's over. It's not over now. We got a bit more. But when it's over, you can go and search the Bobbycast. search Bobbycast on IHartRadio or Apple Podcasts. And search for the, you listen to the new Maddie and Tay one. Me and Maddie and Tay just chilling, or Maddie and Tay and myself. Chilling, talking for an hour about their career ups and downs. It's a show I do from my house about songwriters and music called The Bobbycast,

the new one with Maddie and Tay. The Bobby Bone Show. My favorite story from over the vacation is not even my story. It's Amy's where her son turned eight years old. Yeah. Which is cool. Love it. But my favorite thing is that he thought when he turned a day.

he was going to wake up bigger. Yeah, he did. And he woke up the same. So he was very confused. He thought if he'd be turning a day, you just wake up bigger. I get that. Here's what I think.

This is his first birthday in our home. Other birthdays have been at the orphanage around other kids. Like, waking up on the day of your birthday has never been a big deal to him. But at seven years old, and now be with a family and his sister and us and us make it a big deal

about how his birthday was the next day. We're going to wake up and at breakfast. And, you know, he's going to be eight and big and strong and I mean I guess we confuse him a little bit because he's like I'm going to wake up bigger and we're like well I mean you're going to wake up older so I'm going to wake up bigger and he didn't and so one of the things he just to clarify he didn't and he wanted this Batman costume from Target for his birthday and so we got it for me to ask for it like two months before and he's been wearing that Batman costume ever since because I think it makes a

him feel bigger and stronger. He's like, I'm eight now. I have to protect the neighborhood. So he has been wearing that thing everywhere. I'll take him to the gym with me and like work out with him a bit. Okay. What do you want to do that? If you're cool and then being in his chest plate and cape and mask. I wear mine too.

I'm just talking about it. Yes, you should take him. Yeah, I would do that. He really is trying to grow his muscles. Everything he eats now. He looks at me and he said, is this going to make me bigger and stronger? And I'm like, you bet, buddy. So I'm trying to use that. to be like spinach, kale, broccoli.

Yeah, it'll make you big. Burglars robbed John Mayer's house. What? Yeah, all these celebrity robberies here. John Mayer's home was broken into on Friday after an intruder smashed a window. They stole about $200,000 during stuff, including an extensive watch collection.

Yeah, I'm a little iffy because, listen, I'm very colorblind, right? You guys under... Yes. You guys know this. I don't see, my right eye doesn't work and I'm really colorblind with dark colors, right? And so I hired a friend to get like pictures on my walls and put them up on my walls. And like, I'm kind of proud that I'm having somebody do it because I never decorated my house to be at home. It's time for you to be an adult.

So I said, go pick out some pictures of colors and make sure they match because I can't. And so that's happened in the next few weeks. But my thing is like they want to take pictures and put them online. Oh, of your home? Yeah, and I've had my home broken into so much and, like, been... I know. It's like, vengo.

That's a thing. I'm struggling with it a bit. Like, I am struggling with it. Because I really like them, and I really enjoy, like, how they decorate. But, ooh, next thing you know, somebody's still in my house. So this is so the company can promote what their work. And they should be able to. Yeah.

For me, it's just sensitive because of all the... Yeah, that makes sense. I went to the four-day therapy athon. Is that what you're calling? it? What? I mean, it's cute. Four day therapy athon.

I like that. Well, I can tell you about it coming up in a bit if you want. Well, yeah. There are two things that came out of it. One of them was fantastic, just about vulnerability. But two, it's the safety. I have crazy safety concerns still. Like hardcore, still PTSD, anxiety.

That's why I'm so anxious. I can't sleep. I just swear I've had too many incidents of like having a gun pulled on me or being attacked at work or threats. And it's just still like in there. And it came out hard at this thing. Hard. Not easy

Hard Like Kesha would say hard Yeah This is we're going to talk about it In a minute Because I don't There's things The questions I have

Want to get into But I don't know what all you want to share Because that's a therapyathon What do I not talk about Whatever I don't know I mean some of it I don't know what it dug up At a therapy athon

Yeah Amy sent to me this text Like hey I hope you're doing okay Must be tough And I was like No I was like Whatever you want to talk about I was like You're right

I'm so emotional Right I was just like trying to be sensitive to what may have, you know... We can get it. We can get it if you want. Okay. It's a Bobby Bones show. Well, we are back after a week of vacation, and I can run you through my week real quick,

and Amy, you can ask questions if you want. Okay. But I spent four days basically on a farm at this place called OnSight, where they take your phone, your computer, no TV, nothing. And I love therapy, and I just went and talked with a therapist for four days. intensely. And then from that, I went to Chicago and did a, like I spoke at a convention for other radio people. Saw a bunch of friends hadn't seen in a long time, really enjoyed it. Went to Chicago at the Cubs game. We launched in Chicago, the radio station today. I had a fantastic week. I really

did. I mean, I don't think you've ever come back from vacation saying you had a fantastic time. And considering that four of those were without your phone, four days? I'm telling you. After day one, I didn't miss it. Really? Okay. It was day one was a little hard, though. Well, I just, you know, itched. Yeah, withdraws. Twitching. It's normal. Drilling.

You know, dry heave. Bad headaches. Okay, so what would you like to know? Because after the show finished Friday, I went and drove up, it was like two hours out of town. I drove like 5 a.m., got there at 6 a.m., and that's when I started. Okay.

Let's go ahead. So you handed over? Handed over my phone, and I didn't take a computer. Okay. I just didn't have any connection. And in the room I was in, you're basically, Again, a pilgrim. Right.

Just hanging out in a cabin or what? Did you eat meals like alone or with people? So I went and I was about myself, but other people weren't a group. And so I was like, oh, there was nobody else by them. So I was the loner, but it forces you to either stay alone or kind of integrate. And I did. I made some cool people friends. Were there?

So besides sitting down with a therapist and discussing things. For eight hours a day, by the way. Eight, nine hours a day. Same therapist the whole time? time. Wow. Okay. And then was there ever any activities that the therapist had you do? Like, I was picturing like sort of games, but for your mind. One thing you go up and you draw the whole timeline. I don't know if I'm supposed to give away stuff away, but you draw like timeline in your life. So here's the big takeaway for me. And I've been going to therapy for a long time. As soon as I was on my insurance, I know what therapy was. I got from Mountain Pine, Arkansas. Right. There's no time for that. There's no money for that. That's what I meant. Yeah. Same. We're trying to eat. Yeah. And so I was like, oh, insurance. therapy. So I found I loved it and I needed it. Here's what I found. Are you ready? Yeah.

Well, two takeaways, but the real one was I have trouble with, let's say you go to a new country and they speak a language and you don't understand the language because you never taught the language. Yeah. That language in my life is love. Okay. So they found, they find the point where, like, for me it was like five, six years old when my mom was an addict and an alcoholic and she ended up dying of it later and my real dad left. And I was never taught to accept love. I never got. love. And so it was like, here's where, do you see the same cycle happening overnight? And it was, yeah, every relationship. Exactly same thing. Because you don't understand the language. I don't understand how to talk it or say it or give it or show it. That's a good way to put it. And I feel like at times, I know that about you, but I feel like sometimes I tease you about that. I had to talk about you in therapy a little bit. Really? Yeah, because my feelings were really hurt when you told me that

you didn't think I had feelings. Yeah. I can see now how that would be hurtful, not trying to recognize it from a place of where you were coming from and just saying that you don't have feelings. Like, I'm sorry. And you only meant it, kidding. None of no. You meant it kidding. It was my fault. I was like, yeah, Amy said that she didn't care about me because about the situation because she goes, oh, you don't have feelings. I don't even think about that. And I was like, that's on me because I don't show my feelings.

I don't know how to talk about feelings. So anyway, that's what it was. I didn't cry day one, didn't cry day two, but I cried day three. Did you really? Yeah, and it wasn't over anything sad. Well. And I had to like talk to me.

ex-girlfriends. Talk to them, like, not, not, not, you had to fake talk to them? Yeah, yeah. That was one of the activities or the. It was one of the ones I kind of walked into. You can, listen, you go wherever you want to go. They don't tell you where to go. You don't lead, they don't lead you anywhere.

Were they there when you were talking to your ex-girlfriend? Who's they? The part, your therapist. Yeah. Okay. I wasn't in my room going. Okay. You just said.

You just kind of go do it. No, no, but I'm saying, I went to this thing. I was so apprehensive. I was cynical about the whole thing. Oh, yeah, yeah. I loved it. I think it's the best thing I've ever done for me

in my entire life. Yeah, it's great. Do you feel like there's more to be done? Nothing's changed except I actually know I can get back to that place if I work at it. You don't come out of there going, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

I know there's work that has to be put it. Like, you've got homework probably for the rest of your life. Yeah, life work. But you've been given the tools to... Hopefully. Like, that's huge. So I did that.

And you know what it was? You want to know what made me cry? Yes. I probably get emotional about it right now. Well, I was about to ask, but I know if it's too, serious. Listen, it was a, so I don't do birthdays or like gifts.

But here's the thing. I do, I just don't, I don't, I wasn't ever loved really like that. It wasn't shown. It wasn't spoken love. I wasn't given love in those ways. And so when someone does, I'm going to be like, let's do all be birthday party. I'm like, oh, itch, vomit, all those things. No, no.

So what happened? I didn't pack all my socks. I didn't pack any socks. I go before days, I have any socks. And I'm there. And I'm like, oh, cool. crap, I don't have any socks. And you're doing stuff outside at night.

You're just hanging out. There are no, you just meet people and hang out. They don't... Is it like ping pong? Yeah, stuff like that at night. Okay, okay. I'm trying to picture it in my head. And so, I have any socks.

And then I was in, like, some group, and I was like, I didn't pack any stupid socks. Next day, this dude shows up that I said it to randomly and gave me socks. It was like, hey, man, I had a couple extra pair of socks, and I heard you say you needed them. And I took them, and I started crying. Because I was like, oh, like, oh, I didn't even know. Just because of socks.

Yeah, there's a lot going on there. There's a lot going on. And I was like, man, here's the thing. This dude didn't know me. Didn't know what I did. Didn't know anything about me. Just for the simple act of giving someone some socks. I was like, man, the great thing.

It was bigger than the socks. Oh, yeah, it wasn't actually about the socks. Yeah. But yeah, he had nothing to gain except being nice. Now, did he hand you the socks and he walked away and then you cried or you cried in front of him? I didn't cry on the socks. No, no. It was later.

Okay. Wow. Yeah, it was the whole thing. man, I tell you. It was a thing. And so... So now that you had your fake conversations with girlfriends, is there any part of the homework that is for you to have some conversations in real life now?

With who? I don't know whoever you need to have conversations with. Like, for example, the ex-girlfriends. It's not like A-A, because I had my mom with the A, and they had to call and be like, hey, I'm sorry. It wasn't like that. They don't tell you to go and call. Yeah, okay.

But I did talk to one of ex-girlments. I was like, oh, I learned I was a real douche. Sorry, but that. And what she say? She goes, I knew that you were a douche. But you didn't, she goes, but you didn't really know. She goes, I just, I felt bad for you because you didn't know why you were like you were. She goes, yeah, it's the thing, man.

She probably loved you anyway. Yeah, it was not my last one, but the one before that that you're still really close with. Okay. Yeah. And I was like, I'm really sorry. Sincerely apologized. It was like I was, I just ran. That's what I also love about her so much.

just because she is not scared to tell you, yeah, you're a douche. Yeah, but I saw through that and loved you anyway because I knew you didn't understand why you were being that way. Yeah. But now you're getting there to the understanding part. The whole thing.

Wow. That cried again the next day. It's making me more socks. I'm just kidding. Oh, I was like, somebody gave you a shirt. But I did. But I did. I did cry again the next day.

Wow. My grandma, because my mom, I have tattoos. I have my mom, my grandma, in the state of Arkansas. And my grandma, talking about her, made me cry because that's the only, that's the only, like, real love that I've ever given and had received back. Fully. And I didn't realize that until

this. Like, fully, she adopted me, she took care of me. And it was in this, I was like, oh, man, I do know, like, real pure, pure love. My dog and my grandma. But my dog just loved, I fed him. But my grandma was awesome. So, yeah, it was good. I'm telling you, man. It was great.

So after spending four intense days with this therapist, Do you ever see them again? No. She doesn't even live here. They fly right. No? Huh. You don't have like herself?

I feel like now she knows so much about you. Like, what if you... That's part of it. It wasn't really about her, I guess. Well, I know, but she helped dig all this up. You would think one day if you needed her. Nope. I don't know that she was real.

I think all these big comments she disappeared. com. Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby bones. It's not a baby ball. Something I didn't mention, let me throw this in here. They don't let you talk about your job or what you do whatsoever. You can't.

It's not allowed. And so for me, at first it was weird. I don't have a phone and I couldn't talk about what I did for a living. Yeah. And then it's, but it kind of gives you affirmation that you're a neat person again. Because people were friends with you for no... I don't even think people like me, like other than the person that can give them something. Like in Nashville, like I don't trust anybody because everybody wants their song played or they want to get...

Take them on tour or... And that's a rough place to be with yourself, to think that. With myself it is. I put myself here. I don't trust anybody because of that. No artists, fully, nobody. And so nobody knew what I did. There people from all these out of countries.

It was crazy. And so I was like, wow, I actually kind of like myself. People like me were just hanging out. It was good. You're a likable person. I wonder. Honestly, I don't... I've said it before.

I don't get me. I don't get why people are like, oh, Bobby, we like you. Yeah. Because the listeners, them are anything again. I mean, we're just hanging out. They're listening to me talk about stuff. I think they've got to put up with more than they should.

There was that. There was that. There's that. Good? All caught up. I feel like we all need to go. Oh. Would you call it Therapyathon?

Yeah, therapy athon. Sign me up. The Babbel show. Here's Amy's pile of stories. Sometimes we cover these national whatever days and a lot of times it's food and whatnot. But this one goes out to Bobby. Shout out because it's national left-hander's day. Hey, look at me.

Yes. And lefties, they're thought to be more creative. And while there's no scientific proof, many left-handed people follow careers in the arts, which Bobby has done. And left-handed people make better athletes. Bobby threw out the pitch at the Cubs game on Saturday. Can't argue with that point. I sure did.

Check it out on his Instagram at Mr. Bobby Bones. I'm reading all the comments over there. What are they? Torn. Is it like half and half? Because I was super proud of you because you just like, you had a mission, you got the ball, to the catcher, and it was good. Now, was it a little lobish?

I mean, a little bit of a lot. A little lob. Judge Wobner, chill out. I thought it was good. I was proud of you. Hey, go ahead. But Arkansas Keith, your stepdad who was with you, he kind of wanted you to drill it. There's no one to win.

If I drill it, who cares? If I mess up, everybody cares. Won't leave me alone for the rest of my life. Yes. I love Amy's. Oh, it was good. But it was a little bit of a lot. Why? Because some people are listening right now and they need to know,

it wasn't like a, you know, it wasn't like Nolan Ryan. Go ahead. Or maybe I should name a Cubs player. So you don't have to be tall to get the ladies, guys, because I think sometimes men think that they need, they want to be taller. It helps. It helps.

Okay, well, research has uncovered the fact that most women are okay with a guy that's 5'8. They just want a guy that's taller than them and the average adult woman is only 5.3. Stop it. But 5.8. Raymond's not even 5.8, right? No, he's 5.6. Ramundo in the glass room.

Hey, Ramundo. Yeah, five, six and a half. Stop. Five, six. You're five, six. Every time. You're five six. And speaking of dating, if you happen to be on, like, a dating site and you're working on your profile, if you put down what kind of music you listen to, if you put down country music, you're going to get more engagement from people.

I saw that. You know why, though. They didn't put this in the article. Oh, why? Because any time you identify with, and country music is still a niche format. Yeah. Anytime you identify with the niche format, other niche people. will connect and niches are heavy.

Let's say somebody listens to pop music. That doesn't mean anything. But country gives you more of a meaning. Country, oh, I also like country. If someone goes to say like pop, it's like, well, what kind of pop? Who's you like marshmallow head? You're like, give me a lot. I have a question.

What's niche? It's like a small. Little click of people? Yeah, like a group, like small group. Okay, okay. So you relate with the small group of people. It's a powerful small group that you are heavily embedded with. Okay.

People that could likely be your squad. Oh, good, because I watch Shart Tank a lot, and they say a niche market or whatever. Yeah, it's like a specialized market. And I'm always like, I don't know what you're saying, but it sounds good when you say that. Some people are called it niche. Yeah, I've heard that. You say niche. I do.

Bobby has a minor in French. I'm an academic. A niche. He's left-handed. Yeah. Oh, me. I'm Amy. That's my file.

All right. Thank you, Amy. Bobby boom, come on Good to be back today, but it'd be good to get a nap today. Oh, that's pretty good. Oh, yeah. It rhymes, too. Yeah, because I was excited to come back
